Solution Overview

Problem

Existing wireless networks fail to dynamically adjust resource allocation based on user service requirements and the number of users, leading to inefficiencies in local direct-connected data services such as interactive games and conferences.

Innovation Solution

A resource allocation method where terminal devices report service characteristics, the number of terminal devices, and available resources to a network device, which configures corresponding bypass resources, optimizing resource allocation strategies for local direct-connected data transmission by determining Quality of Service (QoS) or Quality of User Experience (QCI) based on the reported information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the wireless side dynamically adjusts resource allocation through QCI method and quality monitoring, then resource allocation can be adjusted, but the wireless side cannot perceive user service requirements and the number of users leading to allocation inefficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation adaptabilityVSAvoiduser service requirement information
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where terminal devices report service requirement information (including service type, number of users, and resource needs) to the network device. The network device uses this feedback to dynamically adjust bypass resource allocation, resolving the information asymmetry problem where the wireless side could not perceive user service requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces terminal devices as intermediaries that collect and report service requirement information to the network device. These terminal devices act as mediators between users and the network, enabling the network to perceive and respond to service requirements without direct observation capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If bypass resources are configured for local direct-connected data services, then data transmission efficiency improves, but resource allocation may become inefficient without proper adjustment strategies

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission efficiencyVSAvoidnetwork resource waste
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic resource allocation where the network device continuously receives service requirement information from terminal devices and adjusts bypass resource configuration in real-time. This dynamic adjustment ensures resources are allocated efficiently according to actual service needs, preventing both under-provisioning and waste.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of resource allocation from static to dynamic by introducing service requirement-based adjustment. The network device modifies resource allocation parameters (such as bandwidth, power, and time slots) based on reported service characteristics, user count, and resource demands, optimizing the balance between transmission efficiency and resource utilization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
