Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional uplink transmission methods are used, then system simplicity is maintained, but data traffic capacity and transmission rates cannot support explosive growth demands

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata traffic capacityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The codebook is segmented into multiple codebook subsets, each optimized for specific transmission scenarios. The UE can select appropriate subsets based on channel conditions and capability, enabling scalable support for high data traffic without requiring complete system redesign.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adapts between different codebook subset configurations based on UE capability and channel conditions. The UE can switch between first type and second type partial coherent codebook subsets, allowing flexible optimization of data traffic capacity while maintaining manageable complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If advanced technologies like Massive MIMO and NOMA are introduced, then transmission rate and data capacity increase, but resource utilization efficiency and system complexity management become challenging

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission rateVSAvoidresource management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes key parameters of the codebook structure by defining different types of partial coherent codebook subsets with varying coherence levels and precoding matrix configurations. This allows the system to optimize transmission rates for Massive MIMO and NOMA while managing resource complexity through parameterized codebook selection rather than structural overhaul.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If codebook subsets with higher coherence are used, then transmission precision and reliability improve, but the flexibility and adaptability to different channel conditions decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission reliabilityVSAvoidchannel condition adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial coherence rather than full coherence in the codebook subsets. The first type partial coherent codebook provides sufficient reliability for many scenarios while the second type offers reduced coherence for higher adaptability. This partial action approach achieves the optimal balance between reliability and adaptability without requiring extreme measures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically selects between different partial coherent codebook subset types based on channel conditions and UE capability. The UE can adaptively switch between first type and second type subsets, maintaining transmission reliability when conditions permit while achieving higher adaptability when channel conditions vary significantly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
