Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In LTE communication systems, the fixed 1 millisecond transmission time interval (TTI) limits data transmission efficiency, particularly when multiple physical resources are consecutively allocated, leading to deteriorated system transmission efficiency.
Innovation Solution
The introduction of a wireless communication system with a radio frame configuration of 10 ms, comprising two half frames, each with 5 sub frames, allows for flexible allocation of downlink and uplink sub frames, enabling improved data transmission efficiency by optimizing the timing of physical channel and signal transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a fixed 1 millisecond TTI is used for data transmission, then the transmission timing is standardized and simple to manage, but the system transmission efficiency deteriorates when multiple physical resources are consecutively allocated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the TTI duration variable rather than fixed. The base station determines the TTI duration dynamically based on the terminal's movement state (moving or stationary) and allocates physical resources accordingly. For moving terminals, longer TTI durations are used to maintain connection stability, while for stationary terminals, shorter TTI durations improve transmission efficiency. This dynamic adjustment resolves the contradiction between transmission efficiency and management complexity.
2Loss of time
If multiple physical resources are consecutively allocated to reduce data transmission time, then the latency is reduced, but the system transmission efficiency greatly deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the TTI duration parameter based on terminal movement state. By adjusting the TTI duration parameter dynamically, the system optimizes the balance between transmission latency and overall transmission efficiency. The base station determines appropriate TTI durations and informs terminals, allowing flexible resource allocation that adapts to different terminal states rather than using fixed resource allocation patterns.
3Reliability
If the TTI duration is extended for moving terminals to maintain connection stability, then the connection reliability improves, but the transmission efficiency for stationary terminals deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by customizing the TTI duration according to each terminal's specific movement state. Moving terminals receive longer TTI durations to ensure connection stability, while stationary terminals receive shorter TTI durations to maximize transmission efficiency. This localized optimization based on terminal-specific conditions resolves the contradiction between reliability and efficiency for different terminal types.
