Solution Overview

Problem

Current LTE cellular network's broadcast function in V2X communication sends data to all users in a cell, leading to unnecessary data reception and processing for nodes outside the relevant area, such as emergency vehicle reminders being sent to all nodes in a cell, not just those in the affected direction.

Innovation Solution

A V2X communication method where a V2X node detects a downlink control channel scrambled with a V-RNTI relevant to its location, allowing it to selectively receive V2X data information on a corresponding downlink data channel, reducing unnecessary data processing and detection of channels.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If broadcast manner is used to forward V2X data information to all users in the cell, then all V2X nodes can receive the data, but unnecessary data reception and processing occurs for nodes outside the relevant area

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata delivery coverageVSAvoidenergy consumption for unnecessary data processing
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The cell coverage area is segmented into multiple geographic areas, each associated with a specific geographic area identifier. The eNB forwards V2X data information to multiple V-RNTIs corresponding to different geographic areas, and each V2X node only monitors and processes data for its own geographic area, thereby avoiding unnecessary data reception and processing while ensuring reliable delivery to all relevant nodes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different V2X nodes are assigned different geographic area identifiers based on their location. The system applies local quality by making each node's data reception and processing specific to its local geographic area rather than globally applicable to the entire cell, thus reducing unnecessary processing for nodes outside the relevant area.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a V2X communication method and apparatus. The method is applicable for a V2X node and includes: detecting a downlink control channel whose CRC code is scrambled by a V-RNTI relevant to the V2X node; and receiving V2X data information on a corresponding downlink data channel according to an indication of the detected downlink control channel. In the present disclosure, the receiving V2X node is able to receive V2X data information selectively, which avoids useless data receiving and data processing operations of the receiving V2X node, reduces the number of downlink control channels and downlink data channels to be detected and processed by the receiving V2X node.
