Solution Overview

Problem

In V2X communications systems, different types of V2X services are allocated to different frequency bands, but they are often filtered into the same QoS flow, leading to incorrect frequency band transmission and impaired service quality.

Innovation Solution

A method where the transmit end determines a unique layer-2 address pair for each V2X service based on its frequency band, ensuring data is sent on the correct frequency band, preventing mixing of services across different bands.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If different types of V2X services are allocated to different frequency bands, then service diversity and frequency band utilization are improved, but transmission reliability deteriorates when services are filtered into the same QoS flow

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice diversityVSAvoidtransmission reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the QoS flow by introducing frequency band identification information. Services on different frequency bands are no longer mixed in a single QoS flow but are segmented into separate flows with distinct frequency band identifiers, ensuring that each service maintains its correct frequency band association throughout transmission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces frequency band identification information as an intermediary element between the service data and the QoS flow. This identifier acts as a mediator that links the service to its designated frequency band, enabling the network to correctly route and transmit services on the appropriate frequency bands without confusion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Device complexity

If V2X services are filtered into a same QoS flow for simplified processing, then device complexity is reduced, but frequency band identification capability is lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing complexityVSAvoidfrequency band identification
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by embedding frequency band identification information into the QoS flow during the service filtering and routing process. This pre-association of frequency band identifiers with service data ensures that frequency band information is preserved throughout the transmission chain without requiring complex post-processing or re-identification mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
