Solution Overview

Problem

The depletion of wireless resources and increased telecommunication expenses due to high demand for mobile network data are exacerbated by IP address conflicts in Wi-Fi direct multi-group networks, preventing the extension of these networks.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a Wi-Fi direct multi-group network that uses IPv6 addresses for unique identification and UDP-based broadcast or multicast to avoid IP address conflicts, allowing for successful uplink and downlink transmissions and network extension.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Area of stationary object

If Wi-Fi direct multi-group network is extended to support more user equipment, then network coverage and communication capability are improved, but IP address conflicts occur due to address depletion

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork coverageVSAvoidcommunication reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from IPv4 (32-bit address space) to IPv6 (128-bit address space), effectively adding dimensionality to the address space. This dimensional change provides virtually unlimited unique addresses, eliminating IP address conflicts while enabling network extension to support more user equipment and broader network coverage without compromising communication reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Productivity

If direct inter-terminal communication is implemented to reduce base station load, then wireless network efficiency is improved, but network extensibility is limited due to IP address conflicts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewireless network efficiencyVSAvoidnetwork extensibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

By adopting IPv6 with its vastly expanded address space, the system enables direct inter-terminal communication to scale extensively without IP address conflicts. This allows the D2D communication network to expand adaptively to support more user equipment and diverse communication scenarios while maintaining high wireless network efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

3Loss of energy

If Wi-Fi direct communication is used for data transmission, then telecommunication expenses are reduced, but network deployment is hindered by IP address conflicts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetelecommunication expensesVSAvoidnetwork deployment
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The adoption of IPv6 removes the IP address conflict barrier that hinders Wi-Fi direct network deployment. With sufficient unique addresses available, networks can be deployed more easily and scaled freely, allowing users to benefit from reduced telecommunication expenses through direct peer-to-peer communication without deployment restrictions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

A method and apparatus and computer readable record media for communication on a Wi-Fi direct multi-group network. A method for communication in the Wi-Fi direct multi-group network comprising receiving, by a Wi-Fi direct multi-group network server, a request for transmission of a Wi-Fi direct communication application for a Wi-Fi direct multi-group communication service from an user equipment (UE) directly or indirectly through a relay server; and transmitting, by the Wi-Fi direct multi-group network server, the Wi-Fi direct communication application to the UE directly or indirectly through the relay server, wherein the Wi-Fi direct communication application determines destination address information for communication of the UE in the Wi-Fi direct multi-group network.
