Wireless Device Relaxed Measurement Based on Transmission Failure
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wireless communication systems face challenges in reducing measurement burden and power consumption during data transmission in idle or inactive states, which can lead to inefficient resource allocation and increased power usage.
Innovation Solution
A method where a wireless device performs either normal or relaxed measurements based on transmission failures, allowing it to switch to normal measurements if necessary and potentially move to another cell or frequency, thereby reducing measurement burden and power consumption.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If normal measurement is performed during data transmission in idle state, then measurement precision and connectivity reliability are improved, but power consumption and measurement burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the measurement mode adjustable and adaptable. The wireless device can dynamically switch between normal measurement and relaxed measurement modes based on transmission requirements, device capabilities, and network conditions. This dynamic adjustment allows the system to optimize the balance between measurement precision and power consumption in real-time during data transmission in idle state.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements parameter changes by modifying measurement parameters such as measurement frequency, measurement type, and measurement burden level. The network can configure different measurement parameters for different devices or transmission scenarios, allowing the device to perform measurements at relaxed levels when appropriate, thereby reducing power consumption while maintaining adequate connectivity reliability.
2Use of energy by moving object
If relaxed measurement is performed during data transmission in idle state, then power consumption is reduced, but measurement precision and connectivity reliability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts measurement precision based on actual needs. When transmission failures are detected or network conditions deteriorate, the device can transition from relaxed measurement to normal measurement, ensuring measurement precision is maintained when necessary while allowing power savings during stable conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the device monitors transmission success and network conditions. Based on this feedback, the device adjusts its measurement strategy - maintaining relaxed measurement when conditions are good, but switching to normal measurement when transmission failures occur, thus adapting measurement precision to actual performance needs.
3Use of energy by moving object
If measurement burden is reduced during data transmission, then power consumption decreases, but ability to detect and respond to network conditions worsens
Solution Approach 1:
The measurement burden is made dynamic rather than static. The device can adjust the level of measurement activity based on transmission status and network conditions. During successful transmissions, relaxed measurement with reduced burden is sufficient. When transmission failures occur or network conditions change, the device increases measurement burden to improve detection capability.
4Reliability
If normal measurement is performed continuously, then connectivity reliability is maintained, but device complexity and processing overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by implementing conditional measurement strategies. Instead of continuously performing normal measurement, the device dynamically determines when measurement is necessary based on transmission status, device state, and network conditions. This reduces unnecessary measurement processing and associated complexity while maintaining reliability when needed.
