Solution Overview

Problem

The introduction of a short transmission time interval (S-TTI) in V2X communication systems poses challenges in packet data latency reduction, leading to issues in PSCCH interpretation methods, field configuration, and payload size setting, which existing technologies struggle to address effectively.

Innovation Solution

A V2X communication method that efficiently controls and interprets PSSCH by distinguishing between first and second TTIs, using different radio network temporary identifiers, and dynamically scheduling transmissions based on predefined subchannel groups, allowing for seamless coexistence of S-TTI and L-TTI-based V2X communications.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If S-TTI is introduced to reduce packet data latency, then transmission speed is improved, but device complexity increases due to multiple TTI configurations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission speedVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically switches between S-TTI and L-TTI configurations based on service requirements. The base station can flexibly configure different TTI lengths for different V2X services, allowing the system to adapt transmission time intervals to specific application needs while maintaining operational simplicity through standardized handling procedures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The V2X service is segmented into different TTI types (S-TTI and L-TTI) with distinct RNTI configurations. First DCI with first RNTI handles S-TTI services, while second DCI with second RNTI handles L-TTI services. This segmentation allows independent optimization of each TTI type without increasing overall system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple DCI formats with different RNTIs are used to support both S-TTI and L-TTI, then adaptability is improved, but difficulty of detecting and measuring increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoiddifficulty of detecting and measuring
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

Different RNTI types serve as intermediaries to distinguish between S-TTI and L-TTI DCI formats. The first RNTI and second RNTI act as identifiers that enable the UE to correctly interpret DCI content without requiring complex detection mechanisms. This intermediary approach simplifies the detection process by providing clear differentiation signals

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

Different RNTI configurations are applied locally to specific DCI formats based on their TTI type. First DCI uses first RNTI for S-TTI services, while second DCI uses second RNTI for L-TTI services. This localized differentiation allows the system to maintain high adaptability while keeping detection rules simple and context-specific

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Manufacturing precision

If PSCCH payload size is adjusted for S-TTI, then manufacturing precision is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconfiguration precisionVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The PSCCH payload size parameter is changed based on TTI type. For S-TTI services, the payload size is optimized to match the shorter transmission interval, while L-TTI services use the conventional payload size. This parameter adjustment enables precise configuration for each service type without requiring complex structural changes to the PSCCH format

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
