Solution Overview

Problem

Current wireless communication systems face delays in random access procedures due to inefficient use of uplink resources, particularly in scenarios involving subband full duplex technology.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of a wireless communication method that allows a terminal device to perform random access using specific first information related to a first uplink subband or first terminal, optimizing resource selection and reducing delays through enhanced RACH configurations and power adjustment parameters.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If traditional random access procedures are used, then device compatibility is maintained, but random access delay increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverandom access delayVSAvoidresource availability
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments uplink resources into multiple uplink subbands, each with dedicated RACH resources. This segmentation allows terminals to select from multiple subbands for random access, increasing resource availability and reducing access delay while maintaining compatibility through selective usage of segmented resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces frequency domain dimensioning by creating multiple uplink subbands with different RACH resource configurations. Terminals can perform random access on different frequency subbands, adding a frequency dimension to the random access process that increases resource availability and reduces contention delay.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Quantity of substance

If multiple uplink subbands are configured for random access, then resource availability increases, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource availabilityVSAvoidconfiguration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The network device pre-configures multiple uplink subbands with RACH resources before random access occurs. Terminals receive and store these configurations in advance, allowing them to quickly select from pre-prepared resources during random access without real-time computation, thus increasing resource availability while managing device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of uplink frequency resources by configuring multiple uplink subbands with different frequency allocations and RACH parameters. This parameter diversification increases resource availability for random access while the structured configuration approach manages the complexity through standardized parameter sets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
