Wireless Communication Capability Signaling for MSD Mitigation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wireless communication systems face challenges in mitigating maximum sensitivity degradation (MSD) due to interference, which affects receiver sensitivity and downlink communication performance, as the network lacks information on the terminal's capability to mitigate MSD, leading to ineffective mitigation strategies.
Innovation Solution
A communication method where a terminal determines its capability to mitigate MSD for a specific band combination and sends information to the network, allowing the network to adjust scheduling and configurations to effectively manage MSD.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the network does not have information on terminal's MSD mitigation capability, then the system complexity is low, but the receiver sensitivity deteriorates due to ineffective MSD mitigation
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device determines its MSD mitigation capability in advance and sends this capability information to the network device before actual communication occurs. This preliminary action ensures the network has the necessary information to make informed scheduling decisions, thereby maintaining receiver sensitivity without adding complex real-time feedback mechanisms.
2Reliability
If the terminal sends MSD mitigation capability information to the network, then the receiver sensitivity is improved, but the communication protocol complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The capability information is sent once in advance through existing signaling mechanisms (RRC signaling, MAC CE, or uplink data channels) rather than requiring continuous real-time exchange. This approach improves receiver sensitivity while minimizing protocol complexity by reusing established communication pathways.
Solution Approach 2:
The MSD mitigation capability information serves as an intermediary parameter that enables the network to adjust scheduling strategies. By introducing this single capability indicator, the system achieves improved receiver sensitivity without requiring complex multi-parameter negotiation protocols.
3Reliability
If the network adjusts scheduling based on terminal capability information, then the MSD is effectively mitigated, but the network operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The network applies different scheduling strategies tailored to specific terminal capabilities rather than using a uniform approach for all terminals. Terminals with MSD mitigation capability receive different treatment than those without, optimizing performance for each case while keeping the overall system manageable through capability-based differentiation.
Solution Approach 2:
By receiving capability information in advance, the network can pre-configure appropriate scheduling strategies for each terminal type. This preliminary knowledge allows the network to simplify real-time operations by avoiding complex on-the-fly decisions, thereby effectively mitigating MSD without excessive operational complexity.

AI summary
A communication method includes determining a capability of mitigating maximum sensitivity degradation (MSD) for a first band combination. The first band combination includes a first band and a second band. A band number of the first band is different from a band number of the second band. The communication method also includes sending first information. The first information indicates the capability of mitigating the MSD for the first band combination.
