Solution Overview

Problem

In V2X communication, selecting an appropriate transmission channel with low channel load is crucial to avoid latency, especially in multi-channel environments where high reliability and safety services are essential.

Innovation Solution

A method for determining a transmission channel based on CBR values, where channels with CBR values below a set threshold are grouped into candidate sets, and the channel with the lowest CBR within these sets is selected, with the number and size of these sets adjusted according to service priority, allowing for efficient channel resource allocation and priority-based transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple channels are used to provide various V2X services, then service diversity and capacity are improved, but channel selection complexity and latency increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice diversityVSAvoidchannel selection complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the channel selection process into multiple stages: first dividing channels into candidate groups based on CBR thresholds, then selecting specific channels within each group. This hierarchical segmentation reduces the complexity of evaluating all channels individually while maintaining service diversity across multiple frequency bands.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts CBR threshold parameters based on service priority levels. High-priority services use stricter thresholds to ensure reliable transmission, while lower-priority services can tolerate higher thresholds. This parameter adaptation allows the system to handle diverse service requirements without increasing overall system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If channels with low CBR are selected for transmission, then transmission reliability is improved, but channel availability and load distribution may be reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission reliabilityVSAvoidchannel availability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic channel group formation where candidate channel groups are recreated in each transmission opportunity based on current CBR measurements. This dynamic approach allows the system to adapt to changing channel conditions, ensuring that reliable channels are selected when available while maintaining flexibility to use alternative channels when conditions change, thus balancing reliability with channel availability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary classification of channels into candidate groups before actual transmission decisions. By pre-filtering channels based on CBR thresholds and organizing them into candidate groups, the system prepares multiple viable transmission options in advance, ensuring both reliability (through low-CBR selection) and availability (through pre-prepared alternative groups).

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
