Solution Overview

Problem

Existing 5G communication systems lack efficient methods for resource allocation between vehicle and pedestrian terminals in V2X communication, particularly in scenarios where terminals are outside network coverage, leading to increased power consumption and suboptimal resource selection.

Innovation Solution

A method for resource allocation between terminals in V2X communication, involving sharing of resource pools based on channel busy ratio (CBR) and other parameters, with terminals requesting and receiving resource allocation information from each other to minimize power consumption and improve resource selection.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If terminals autonomously select transmission resources through sensing, then resource allocation flexibility is improved, but power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation flexibilityVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables terminals to autonomously perform sensing and resource selection without continuous base station intervention. The terminal independently monitors channel conditions, identifies available resources, and makes allocation decisions based on pre-configured parameters and real-time channel state information, thereby reducing control signaling overhead and power consumption while maintaining flexibility

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts sensing parameters such as sensing window size, resource selection window, and threshold values based on channel conditions and traffic characteristics. By adapting these parameters, the system optimizes the balance between sensing accuracy (affecting resource allocation flexibility) and processing complexity (affecting power consumption)

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If terminals exchange detailed channel state information, then resource allocation accuracy is improved, but signaling overhead increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation accuracyVSAvoidsignaling overhead
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the essential channel state information parameters needed for resource allocation decisions, such as channel busy ratio and reference signal received power thresholds, rather than transmitting complete channel state matrices. This selective extraction reduces signaling overhead while preserving the accuracy needed for effective resource allocation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary channel sensing and pre-calculates resource allocation candidates before actual transmission. By preparing resource allocation options in advance based on current channel conditions and sharing these preprocessed results, the system reduces the need for detailed real-time channel state information exchange, thereby lowering signaling overhead while maintaining allocation accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
