Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wireless communication systems face inefficiencies in resource allocation and energy consumption due to the lack of optimized configuration parameters for transmission and reception, leading to suboptimal energy usage and potential performance bottlenecks.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a system where transmission configuration indication parameters determine the use of multiple resources for transmission/reception, with transport block sizes and power settings adjusted based on resource availability and necessity, allowing for dynamic energy-saving strategies.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple resources are configured for transmission/repetition, then reliability is improved, but energy consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic resource selection where the wireless device can adaptively choose between single-resource and multi-resource transmission modes based on current channel conditions and quality requirements. The system dynamically adjusts the number of transmission repetitions and resource allocations rather than using fixed configurations, allowing optimization of both reliability and energy consumption in real-time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes key parameters including transport block size, transmission power, and number of repetitions based on monitored channel quality indicators. When channel conditions are good, the system reduces repetitions and power; when conditions deteriorate, it increases these parameters, thereby maintaining reliability while minimizing energy consumption.
2Productivity
If transport block size is increased, then productivity is improved, but energy consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adjustment of transport block size based on channel quality feedback. The system monitors channel conditions and adapts the transport block size accordingly - using larger blocks when channels are good to improve productivity, and smaller blocks when channels are poor to reduce energy consumption, thus dynamically optimizing the productivity-energy tradeoff.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the transport block size parameter in response to channel quality measurements and transmission outcomes. By adjusting this parameter along with power and repetition count, the system optimizes the balance between data transmission efficiency and energy consumption.
3Reliability
If transmission power is increased, then reliability is improved, but energy consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic power control where transmission power is adjusted in real-time based on channel quality indicators and transmission success/failure feedback. The system uses power adaptation strategies that increase power only when necessary to achieve reliable transmission, rather than maintaining high power continuously, thus reducing overall energy loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes transmission power as a controllable parameter based on monitored channel conditions and transmission performance. By coordinating power adjustments with changes in transport block size and repetition count, the system optimizes the balance between achieving reliable delivery and minimizing energy consumption.

AI summary
One or more parameters may be used to configure wireless communications between a wireless device and a base station. A transmission configuration indication selection field may indicate which of two (or more) resources is to be used for a transmission/reception. A transport block size for a transmission occasion may be determined using one of the resources, and the same transport block size may be used for another transmission occasion using another of the resources, for example, if the transmission configuration indication selection field indicates using two resources or if the transmission configuration indication selection field is absent.
