Solution Overview

Problem

Current wireless communication systems face challenges in optimizing channel codes for non-AWGN channels, leading to errors and resource wastage due to retransmissions, especially in ultra-high latency and ultra-reliable communication environments like 5G/6G.

Innovation Solution

A method using AI/ML to generate optimal codes based on channel information and capability information, where user equipment (UE) and base stations exchange decoding level and machine learning capability information to select or generate machine learning-based codes, optimizing block error rates and reducing latency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional channel codes are used in non-AWGN channels, then device complexity is reduced, but communication reliability deteriorates due to errors and retransmissions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication reliabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by using AI/ML to generate codes that adapt to specific channel conditions rather than using fixed traditional codes. The system changes the code parameters based on channel state information, enabling optimization for non-AWGN channels while maintaining manageable complexity through intelligent algorithm selection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical/code-based error correction systems with AI/ML-based code generation. Instead of relying on predetermined code structures, the system uses machine learning models to generate optimized codes, substituting conventional coding mechanisms with intelligent adaptive systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If AI/ML-based codes are generated and used, then communication reliability improves, but loss of time increases due to code generation processing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveblock error rateVSAvoidlatency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-generating and storing multiple candidate codes using AI/ML before actual communication occurs. When communication needs to occur, the system selects from pre-generated codes rather than generating new ones in real-time, thus reducing latency while maintaining the reliability benefits of AI-optimized codes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamics by creating a dynamic code selection mechanism that adapts to changing channel conditions. The system maintains a pool of pre-generated codes and dynamically selects the most appropriate code based on current channel state, balancing the trade-off between code optimization and generation time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If capability information exchange is implemented, then adaptability improves for code selection, but device complexity increases due to additional signaling

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecode adaptation capabilityVSAvoidsignaling complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies the taking out principle by extracting only the essential capability information needed for code selection and transmitting only that specific data. Rather than exchanging comprehensive device specifications, the system identifies and transmits only the critical parameters related to code generation capabilities, reducing signaling overhead while maintaining adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
