Solution Overview

Problem

The existing 5G communication systems face challenges in efficiently managing radio resources for vehicular communication, particularly in avoiding resource selection collisions and meeting low latency requirements for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) services.

Innovation Solution

The proposed method involves a wireless communication system where mode 3 and mode 4 terminals share a radio resource pool, with a base station configuring a resource reservation field based on semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) periodicity and transmitting control messages to manage resource allocation, allowing terminals to autonomously select or use scheduled resources to minimize disruptions and optimize resource utilization.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If mode 3 and mode 4 terminals share a radio resource pool, then resource utilization efficiency is improved, but resource selection collisions increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilization efficiencyVSAvoidresource selection collision
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The resource pool is segmented into two distinct parts: mode 3 resource pool and mode 4 resource pool. Mode 3 terminals are restricted to selecting resources only from the mode 3 resource pool, while mode 4 terminals select from the mode 4 resource pool. This segmentation prevents resource selection collisions between different terminal types while maintaining high resource utilization efficiency within each dedicated pool.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of time

If autonomous resource selection is allowed, then transmission latency is reduced, but resource collisions increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission latencyVSAvoidresource collision
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

Different resource selection mechanisms are applied to different terminal types based on their local characteristics. Mode 3 terminals use autonomous resource selection from their dedicated pool, while mode 4 terminals use base station-scheduled resource allocation. This local quality approach allows each terminal type to operate optimally without causing collisions, as each terminal selects or is assigned resources only from its designated pool.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Reliability

If dedicated resource pools are assigned, then resource collisions are avoided, but resource management complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource collision avoidanceVSAvoidresource management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adapts resource allocation based on terminal type. When a mode 3 terminal autonomously selects resources from its dedicated pool, no additional management overhead is required. When a mode 4 terminal requires scheduled allocation, the base station dynamically assigns resources from the mode 4 pool. This dynamic approach avoids resource collisions while managing complexity through automated terminal-type-based resource pool assignment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
