Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In wireless communication systems, the nonalignment of data processing and data transmission periods leads to power wastage due to premature or delayed data processing relative to data transmission periods, which existing technologies fail to effectively address.
Innovation Solution
A timing control method for user equipment (UE) that adjusts the starting time of the data processing period to be ahead of the data transmission period by a predetermined time, ensuring alignment and reducing power consumption.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Use of energy by moving object
If data processing is performed according to conventional timing without alignment to data transmission periods, then data processing can proceed independently, but power is wasted due to nonalignment causing premature or delayed processing relative to transmission periods
Solution Approach 1:
The data processing period is advanced to start before the data transmission period begins, by a predetermined time offset. This preliminary positioning ensures that processing completes刚好 at the transmission start time, eliminating waiting time and power waste while maintaining synchronization.
Solution Approach 2:
The timing offset between data processing period and data transmission period is dynamically adjusted based on the specific transmission schedule. The processing period timing is made flexible rather than fixed, allowing it to adapt to varying transmission periods and optimize power consumption under different conditions.
2Reliability
If data processing period starts too early before data transmission period, then processing can be completed in time, but power is wasted due to premature processing
Solution Approach 1:
The processing period is positioned to start at a specific offset before transmission, calculated to ensure completion刚好 at transmission time. This preliminary but precise positioning avoids both premature processing (wasting power) and delayed processing (compromising reliability).
Solution Approach 2:
The start time offset parameter of the data processing period is adjusted based on transmission requirements. By changing this timing parameter dynamically, the system optimizes the balance between completing processing in time (reliability) and avoiding unnecessary early processing (power consumption).
3Use of energy by moving object
If data processing period starts too late after data transmission period begins, then processing can be performed, but transmission timing is delayed or missed
Solution Approach 1:
The processing period is advanced to start before transmission begins, ensuring completion is ready刚好 at transmission time. This preliminary positioning prevents both the waste of starting too late (which would miss transmission) and the waste of starting too early (which would consume unnecessary power).
Solution Approach 2:
The system monitors the relationship between processing completion time and transmission start time, using this feedback to adjust the processing period offset. This ensures processing always completes刚好 in time for transmission, maintaining reliability while optimizing power usage.
