Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Wireless communication systems face challenges in effectively managing conflicting transmissions, leading to potential failures in receiving high-priority communications due to overlapping channels and resource collisions, which increases latency and resource consumption.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for wireless communication that involve receiving configuration information to determine whether to simultaneously transmit, multiplex, or prioritize communications scheduled for simultaneous transmission via different channels, based on parameters such as channel priorities, resource configurations, and capabilities of the mobile station, to reduce the likelihood of base station failures in receiving high-priority communications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If multiplexing is applied to transmit both first and second communications simultaneously, then channel utilization is improved, but reliability deteriorates due to potential conflicts and failures in receiving high-priority communications
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating the treatment of communications based on their priority levels. High-priority communications are allocated dedicated resources without multiplexing, while low-priority communications share resources through multiplexing. This localized differentiation ensures that critical communications maintain high reliability while overall channel utilization is optimized through selective multiplexing of non-critical traffic.
2Productivity
If simultaneous transmission of first and second communications is attempted, then transmission efficiency is improved, but conflicts and resource collisions increase leading to higher latency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the transmission process by separating high-priority and low-priority communications into distinct resource sets. High-priority communications are transmitted in dedicated time slots or frequency resources without interference, while low-priority communications are multiplexed in remaining resources. This segmentation eliminates conflicts and resource collisions, ensuring low latency for critical communications while maintaining overall transmission efficiency.
3Ease of operation
If configuration information is provided to indicate multiplexing or prioritization, then control over conflicting transmissions is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes parameter changes by configuring mobile stations with priority indicators and resource allocation parameters that automatically determine multiplexing behavior. Instead of complex control mechanisms, the system uses simple parameter modifications in configuration information to enable or disable multiplexing for specific communication types. This approach provides effective control over conflicting transmissions while minimizing device complexity through automated decision-making based on configured parameters.

AI summary
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a mobile station may determine, based at least in part on radio resource control signaling, whether to simultaneously transmit, multiplex, or prioritize a first communication and a second communication that are scheduled for simultaneous transmissions via a first channel and a second channel, respectively. The mobile station may transmit one or more of the first communication or the second communication based at least in part on the determination of whether to simultaneously transmit, multiplex, or prioritize the first communication and the second communication. Numerous other aspects are provided.
