Solution Overview

Problem

Current V2X communication systems face challenges in resource allocation and utilization due to varying traffic conditions and high terminal densities, leading to potential collisions and inefficiencies in resource usage, particularly in urban areas and emergency situations.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of direction-dependent and density-dependent radio resource allocation methods in wireless terminals and cellular radio access networks, where resources are selected based on geographical region, travel direction, and communication density to minimize interference and optimize resource usage.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If resource pools are allocated without considering geographical region and travel direction, then resource allocation is simple, but collision probability increases in high-density areas

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication reliabilityVSAvoidresource allocation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by allocating different resource pools to different geographical regions and travel directions. Each region-direction combination has its own dedicated resource pool, ensuring that local communication needs are met with appropriate resources while avoiding conflicts in high-density areas.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the available radio resources into multiple resource pools, where each pool is associated with specific geographical regions and travel directions. This segmentation allows independent management and allocation of resources for different spatial contexts, reducing collisions while maintaining overall system efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Object-affected harmful factors

If directional resource allocation is implemented, then collision avoidance improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecollision interferenceVSAvoidresource selection mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent assigns specific resource pools to specific travel directions within geographical regions. By making resource allocation direction-dependent, the system reduces interference between vehicles traveling in different directions while maintaining manageable complexity through pre-defined resource pool associations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Productivity

If multiple resource pools are used for different regions, then resource utilization efficiency improves, but information processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilization efficiencyVSAvoidinformation processing load
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent pre-establishes the mapping between geographical regions, travel directions, and resource pools before actual communication occurs. This preliminary configuration allows vehicles to autonomously select appropriate resources based on their current region and direction without requiring complex real-time processing or extensive information exchange.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
