Solution Overview

Problem

5G mobile communications face challenges in controlling the arrival time of transmitted data at the reception side with fine granularity, as there is limited support for time limits on data transmission, making it difficult to flexibly manage data arrival times.

Innovation Solution

A wireless communication device with a controller that configures multiple communication channels with different configurations and selects the appropriate channel based on data requirements, such as delay time and retransmission needs, to ensure flexible control over data arrival times.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If a single communication channel is used for data transmission, then the device complexity is reduced, but the ability to control data arrival time with fine granularity deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication channel configurationVSAvoiddata arrival time control
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the communication system into multiple communication channels (first communication channel and second communication channel) with different configurations. Each channel is optimized for specific data requirements, allowing fine-grained control over data arrival times while maintaining manageable device complexity through structured segmentation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic channel selection where the controller adapts the choice of communication channel based on real-time data requirements such as delay time constraints and retransmission needs. This dynamic adaptation enables flexible control of data arrival times without permanently increasing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Manufacturing precision

If multiple communication channels with different configurations are configured, then the data arrival time control is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata arrival time precisionVSAvoidcommunication channel management
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent assigns different communication configurations to different channels based on local requirements. The first communication channel is configured for data requiring retransmission, while the second channel is for data without retransmission. This local optimization achieves precise data arrival time control without unnecessarily complicating the entire system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes communication parameters (such as delay time constraints and retransmission settings) based on the specific requirements of the data being transmitted. By adjusting these parameters dynamically rather than maintaining fixed complex configurations, the system achieves precise arrival time control with manageable complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If communication channels are selected based on data state, then the productivity is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission efficiencyVSAvoidchannel selection process
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements an automated channel selection mechanism where the controller automatically determines the appropriate communication channel based on the state of the data (delay time requirements, retransmission needs). This self-service approach improves transmission efficiency while eliminating the need for manual intervention, thereby maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback from the data state (such as delay time constraints and retransmission status) to automatically select the appropriate communication channel. This feedback-driven selection process improves productivity by ensuring optimal channel matching while simplifying operation through automated decision-making rather than manual selection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
