Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing access systems face issues with user-friendliness and reliability, particularly in areas with poor mobile network quality, where communication faults can prevent authorized users from passing through gates due to delayed data transmission and reliance on remote central computing devices.
Innovation Solution
The access system employs near-field transmission devices to generate a local access data record on mobile terminals, eliminating the need for communication with remote central computing devices, using signals to create access data records based on unique identifiers and time stamps, and verifying access through local comparison and authorization lists.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a remote central computing device is used to transmit access data records via long-distance communication networks, then access authorization can be verified, but the system becomes unreliable in areas with poor network quality and communication faults can block access even for authorized users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the centralized access control system into distributed components: local gate devices with verification capabilities and mobile terminal devices that generate access data records independently. This segmentation eliminates the single point of failure (remote central computing device) and allows local verification to proceed without network dependency.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism where the mobile terminal device acts as a mediator between the user and the gate. The mobile terminal generates access data records locally and transmits them to the gate via near-field communication, serving as an intermediary that eliminates the need for direct communication between the gate and remote central computing device during verification.
2Ease of operation
If continuous communication connection with remote central computing device is maintained, then access data records can be transmitted and verified, but network faults and delays can prevent authorized access
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by having the mobile terminal device generate the access data record locally before reaching the gate. The access data record is created in advance using near-field transmission of identification data and local processing, eliminating the need for real-time communication with the remote central computing device during the access verification process.
3Reliability
If access data records are transmitted from remote central computing device to both mobile terminal and gate, then authorization can be verified, but transmission delays can cause access denial even when the user has valid credentials
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the access data record generation function from the remote central computing device and places it in the mobile terminal device. By taking out the data generation process from the centralized system, the mobile terminal can independently create access data records using locally stored identification data and near-field transmission from the gate, eliminating transmission delays associated with remote data delivery.
4Reliability
If near-field transmission devices are used to generate access data records locally on mobile terminals, then access can be granted without remote communication, but the system requires local verification capabilities
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by enabling the gate device to independently verify access data records without requiring external assistance from a remote central computing device. The gate device uses its own processing capabilities to validate the access data record generated by the mobile terminal, making the verification process self-sufficient and independent of network conditions.
