Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional distribution network is used, then system simplicity is maintained, but real-time transmission capability and reliability for multi-service traffic cannot be ensured
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the distribution network into multiple communication nodes and route links, each with independently evaluated importance indices. This segmentation allows targeted routing strategies for different traffic types without requiring complete system redesign, thus improving reliability while managing complexity through modular evaluation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces parameter changes by evaluating and assigning different importance indices (physical and information) to various nodes and links based on their characteristics. This parameter-based differentiation enables the system to dynamically adjust routing decisions for different service traffics, improving real-time transmission reliability without uniformly increasing system complexity.
2Reliability
If unified routing strategy is used for all service traffics, then routing simplicity is maintained, but service-specific real-time performance and reliability requirements cannot be met
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by assigning different importance indices to different physical nodes and information nodes based on their specific characteristics and service requirements. This localized differentiation enables the routing system to provide service-specific transmission reliability through node-level and link-level importance evaluation, rather than applying a uniform routing strategy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces dynamics by enabling the routing system to adaptively select paths based on real-time evaluation of physical and information importance indices. The system can dynamically adjust routing decisions for different service traffics (e.g., emergency services vs. economic services) according to their specific requirements, improving service-specific reliability while managing coordination complexity through automated evaluation.
3Reliability
If static routing paths are used, then system operation simplicity is maintained, but response capability to sudden link failures is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-evaluating and establishing the importance indices of physical nodes and information nodes before failures occur. This preliminary evaluation enables the system to quickly identify alternative paths when link failures happen, reducing route reconstruction time while improving robustness against failures through advance preparation of routing information.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces feedback mechanisms that allow the system to monitor the status of communication links and dynamically adjust routing paths when failures are detected. The feedback loop enables real-time response to link failures by re-evaluating importance indices and selecting alternative paths, thus improving robustness while minimizing the time loss associated with route reconstruction.
