Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If existing LTE D2D resource allocation methods are used, then general fairness and channel utilization are maintained, but low delay and high reliability requirements cannot be satisfied

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovereliabilityVSAvoidinterference management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The base station proactively allocates different resources to transmitting nodes based on predicted interference relationships before interference actually occurs. By using position information to pre-judge potential interference and assigning orthogonal resources in advance, the system ensures high reliability for safety-critical communications without requiring complex real-time interference management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The base station acts as an intermediary that collects position information from transmitting nodes, calculates interference relationships, and coordinates resource allocation. This centralized mediation simplifies the interference management complexity by providing a single point of control that can optimally allocate resources based on global position information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If resource allocation is adjusted frequently to address interference, then reliability improves, but delay increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovereliabilityVSAvoiddelay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Resources are allocated based on position information before transmission begins, preventing interference proactively rather than reacting to it. This eliminates the need for frequent post-interference adjustments, thereby maintaining low delay while ensuring high reliability through pre-configured orthogonal resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If position information is collected and processed, then resource allocation precision improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation precisionVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The base station serves as an intermediary that centralizes the collection and processing of position information. Transmitting nodes simply report their positions to the base station, which then calculates interference relationships and determines resource allocation. This distributes complexity appropriately, maintaining high measurement precision while avoiding excessive complexity at the node level.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
