Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
New generation mobile wireless communication systems, such as 5G, have high straightness of radio waves, leading to areas where signals do not reach, causing unstable communication and potential interruptions when mobile devices move into shadowed areas, resulting in incomplete information delivery to users.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device and method that acquires the current position of a terminal and adapts content transmission by switching between high-speed (5G) and lower-speed wireless communication systems, transmitting rich content data within 5G range and lean content data outside this range, ensuring stable information delivery.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If 5G wireless communication is used for high-speed data transmission, then communication speed and data capacity are improved, but communication stability and coverage are worsened due to high straightness of radio waves creating shadow areas
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically switches between 5G and 4G wireless communication systems based on the terminal's current position and communication stability. When the terminal enters a shadow area where 5G signal is unstable, the system automatically transitions to 4G communication to maintain stable content distribution, and switches back to 5G when signal conditions improve.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the communication parameter (wireless communication system type) from 5G to 4G based on position information and signal conditions. This parameter change allows the system to adapt to varying communication environments, maintaining both speed and stability by using the appropriate communication standard for each location.
2Quantity of substance
If 5G wireless communication is used to provide large amount of data, then information delivery capacity is improved, but information delivery completeness is worsened when terminal moves into areas with no signal coverage
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the wireless communication system being used based on real-time position information. When the terminal is in a 5G coverage area, the system provides large-volume data through 5G. When the terminal moves into a shadow area, the system dynamically switches to 4G to ensure continuous information delivery, preventing information loss due to communication interruptions.
3Productivity
If high-speed wireless communication is used for content distribution, then productivity is improved, but communication interruption risk increases in shadowed areas
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically selects the wireless communication system based on the terminal's position relative to 5G coverage areas. In well-covered areas, 5G is used for high-productivity content distribution. In shadowed areas, the system dynamically switches to 4G to ensure communication continuity, thus maintaining both productivity and reliability across different locations.

AI summary
An information processing device includes a controller configured to acquire information relating to a current position of a terminal from the terminal, transmit first content data to the terminal when the current position of the terminal is within a communication range of first wireless communication, and transmit second content data, which has a data size transmittable within a predetermined time even though second wireless communication having a speed lower than the first wireless communication, transfers information with the same effect as a content of the first content data, and is different in transfer method of the content from the first content data, to the terminal when the current position of the terminal is outside the communication range of the first wireless communication.
