Solution Overview

Problem

In 5G wireless communication systems, existing methods lack efficiency in scheduling resources for terminals with different processing capabilities at various subcarrier spacings (SCS), leading to abnormal data processing and reduced reliability of data transmission.

Innovation Solution

A wireless communication method where terminals report their capability information indicating processing capabilities at different SCS, allowing base stations to schedule resources accordingly, thereby optimizing resource allocation based on terminal capabilities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the base station schedules one or more PDSCHs or PUSCHs in one time slot for terminals with different capabilities, then the resource utilization is improved, but the reliability of data transmission deteriorates due to abnormal data processing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilizationVSAvoidreliability of data transmission
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by introducing terminal capability parameters that indicate the maximum number of PDSCHs or PUSCHs the terminal can process in one time slot. The base station uses these parameters to adjust scheduling decisions, matching the scheduled channel count to the terminal's processing capability. This resolves the contradiction by enabling high resource utilization through parallel scheduling while maintaining reliability by ensuring the scheduled count does not exceed terminal capabilities.

2Device complexity

If the base station uses unified scheduling parameters for all terminals, then the scheduling complexity is reduced, but the efficiency of resource scheduling deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescheduling complexityVSAvoidefficiency of resource scheduling
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by having terminals report their capability information (maximum number of PDSCHs/PUSCHs processable in one time slot) to the base station before scheduling occurs. The base station stores these capability parameters and uses them for subsequent scheduling decisions. This resolves the contradiction by preparing terminal capability data in advance, enabling efficient differentiated scheduling without increasing operational complexity during the scheduling process.
