User Equipment Service Request Interval Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Third generation mobile communication systems, such as UMTS, face inefficiencies in allocating network resources due to resource limited conditions, leading to increased workload and inefficient transmission speeds as user equipment directly transmits service requests without defined strategies to manage resource availability.
Innovation Solution
A method for user equipment to determine if the network is in a resource limited status and control the time interval for transmitting service requests, using a counter to set and count a threshold value before retransmitting requests, thereby managing the frequency and workload of service requests.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If user equipment directly transmits service requests to the network when resources are limited, then the user equipment can request necessary network resources, but the network workload increases and resource allocation efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements periodic action by introducing a time interval control mechanism where user equipment waits for a predetermined time period before retransmitting service requests when the network is in resource limited status. This periodic delay prevents continuous flooding of requests, allowing the network to recover and allocate resources more efficiently while still ensuring eventual delivery of necessary service requests.
2Reliability
If user equipment continuously transmits service requests to establish connections, then the user equipment can ensure connection establishment, but the network workload increases and resource distribution becomes inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies periodic action by implementing a time interval control mechanism that prevents continuous transmission of service requests. When the network is determined to be in resource limited status, the user equipment waits for a predetermined time period before attempting to transmit another service request. This periodic approach maintains connection establishment reliability while significantly reducing network workload and energy consumption.
3Quantity of substance
If the network releases RRC connections frequently due to resource limitations, then network resources are conserved, but transmission speed and service continuity deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by having user equipment detect and respond to resource limited status before the network is forced to release connections. By implementing a time interval control mechanism that prevents excessive service request transmission, the system proactively manages resource consumption, allowing the network to maintain connections longer and avoid frequent releases, thereby preserving transmission speed and service continuity.
Data Source
AI summary
A method for distributing network resource is disclosed. The method includes transmitting a service request to a network for requesting that a connection be established between the network and a user equipment, determining whether the network is in a resource limited status, and controlling a time interval for transmitting another service request to the network when the network is in the resource limited status.
