Solution Overview

Problem

Current practices in Logical Channel (LCH) Mapping Restriction for resource allocation in 5G wireless communication systems result in resource waste and inefficiency due to single priority values, limitations in configuring multiple restrictions, and static priority settings that do not adapt to varying QoS requirements.

Innovation Solution

Configuring multiple resource types with differing priorities for data flows between network nodes and wireless terminals, allowing dynamic adjustment of priority based on QoS requirements, and using a message to identify these resource types and priorities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If single priority value is used for resource allocation, then device complexity is reduced, but resource utilization efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepriority configuration complexityVSAvoidresource utilization efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the single priority value into multiple priority values, each associated with different resource types. This allows the system to assign different priorities to different resource allocations, thereby improving resource utilization efficiency while maintaining manageable complexity through structured segmentation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces dynamic priority adjustment mechanisms that allow priority values to change based on QoS requirements and network conditions. This dynamic approach enables the system to adapt to varying data demands and optimize resource allocation in real-time, resolving the contradiction between fixed complexity and variable efficiency requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Device complexity

If static priority settings are used, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to varying QoS requirements deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepriority management complexityVSAvoidQoS requirement adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms static priority settings into dynamic priority configurations that can adapt to varying QoS requirements. By introducing mechanisms for priority adjustment based on network conditions and service requirements, the system achieves both adaptability and controlled complexity through systematic dynamic management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes parameter changes in priority values to adapt to different QoS requirements. By modifying priority parameters dynamically based on network state and service needs, the system achieves versatility in handling diverse QoS scenarios while maintaining structured complexity management through parameter-based control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If multiple resource types with differing priorities are configured, then resource utilization efficiency is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilization efficiencyVSAvoidresource configuration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments resources into multiple resource types with distinct priority levels, allowing differentiated allocation strategies. This segmentation improves resource utilization efficiency by matching appropriate resources to appropriate services while maintaining manageable complexity through structured categorization and assignment rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Reliability

If LCH Mapping Restriction is applied, then resource allocation control is improved, but resource waste increases due to single priority values

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation controlVSAvoidresource waste
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the single priority value associated with LCH Mapping Restriction into multiple priority values corresponding to different resource types. This segmentation enables more precise resource allocation control while reducing waste by allowing high-priority data to access appropriate resources without being constrained by a single priority level that may not match all resource types.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent modifies the priority parameter from a single fixed value to multiple variable values associated with different resource types. This parameter change enables the LCH Mapping Restriction to control resource allocation more effectively while minimizing waste by matching priority levels to resource characteristics and data requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
