Solution Overview

Problem

Current D2D communication technologies, standardized in 3GPP Rel-12/13, fail to meet the high-speed and high-reliability requirements of V2X communication, particularly in terms of time delay and communication reliability, due to resource collisions and in-band emissions in dense traffic environments.

Innovation Solution

A power control method for V2X communication that involves acquiring and determining transmission power for Physical V2X Shared Channel (PVSCH) and Physical V2X Control Channel (PVCCH) based on power control parameters, which include second basic open-loop power reflecting interrelationships between V2X UEs, allowing for dynamic adjustment of transmission power according to UE states such as movement velocity, relative distance, and density.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If Mode 2 D2D broadcast communication is used in V2X environment, then device autonomy and coverage are improved, but resource collision and in-band emission increase in high-density scenarios

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice autonomyVSAvoidcommunication reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by dynamically adjusting transmission power based on multiple parameters including received signal strength, path loss, and pre-configured power values. The terminal selects from multiple pre-configured power parameters (first through fifth) depending on channel conditions and UE state, transforming a static power selection problem into a dynamic parameter optimization problem that resolves the contradiction between autonomy and reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If transmission power is increased to improve communication reliability, then receiving reliability improves, but mutual interference and in-band emission worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereceiving reliabilityVSAvoidmutual interference
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements parameter changes by establishing a multi-level power parameter configuration mechanism with five distinct power levels (first through fifth parameters). The system dynamically selects appropriate power levels based on channel conditions, UE state, and traffic density, enabling fine-grained power control that achieves reliable communication while minimizing interference through precise parameter optimization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies dynamics by making transmission power adaptive rather than static. The terminal continuously monitors channel conditions and adjusts power parameters in real-time based on received signal strength, path loss calculations, and pre-configured power tables. This dynamic adjustment mechanism allows the system to maintain reliability when needed while reducing power (and thus interference) when conditions permit

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Productivity

If centralized control (Mode 1) is used to avoid resource collision, then resource allocation efficiency improves, but system complexity and network dependency increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring multiple power parameters (first through fifth) and resource pool configurations before V2X communication begins. The network provides advance configuration information including power parameters, resource pool settings, and selection criteria. This pre-configuration enables terminals to autonomously make optimal decisions without real-time network intervention, reducing system complexity while maintaining efficient resource allocation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements self-service by enabling terminals to autonomously select and adjust transmission power parameters based on pre-configured tables and current channel conditions. The terminal independently evaluates received signal strength, calculates path loss, and selects appropriate power parameters without continuous network control. This self-service mechanism reduces network dependency and system complexity while maintaining resource allocation efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
