Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If more wireless resources are allocated to increase channel capacity, then transmission rate and service capability are improved, but resource efficiency deteriorates due to limited wireless resources
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic resource allocation where the base station determines whether channels can overlap with resource regions carrying other channels or signals, and adjusts allocation accordingly. This dynamic approach allows the system to flexibly utilize wireless resources by enabling overlap when interference is acceptable, thereby increasing channel capacity without proportionally increasing resource consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of resource allocation flexibility by introducing a determination mechanism that evaluates whether channel overlap is permissible. By dynamically adjusting the allocation parameters based on current system conditions and interference tolerance, the system optimizes the balance between channel capacity and resource efficiency.
2Productivity
If channels are allocated to overlap with other resource regions, then resource utilization efficiency is improved, but signal interference and reliability may worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates a determination step where the base station evaluates whether a channel can overlap with resource regions before allowing such allocation. This feedback mechanism ensures that overlap decisions are made based on current system conditions, maintaining communication reliability by preventing overlap when it would cause harmful interference while still enabling efficient resource utilization when conditions permit.

AI summary
A method and a device for resource allocation in a wireless communication system are provided. The method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system includes transmitting, to a terminal, configuration information including information on at least one first resource region to which at least one of a first channel and a first signal is allocated, transmitting, to the terminal, at least one piece of downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling transmission of a second channel, and receiving the second channel from the terminal, wherein the second channel is scheduled to overlap with the at least one first resource region and a second resource region corresponding to resources other than the first resource region.
