Aerosol Generating Device Log Analysis for Prioritized Error Diagnosis
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a need for a method to analyze and determine errors in aerosol generating devices based on log data to prevent malfunction or failure.
Innovation Solution
An error analysis device with a communication interface to receive log data from the aerosol generating device and a processor to determine errors based on the received data, categorizing errors into preset categories and prioritizing main and sub-errors.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If error analysis is performed on multiple errors simultaneously, then comprehensive error detection is improved, but analysis accuracy decreases due to error prioritization complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the error analysis process into two distinct stages: first, multiple errors are detected and categorized into different priority levels (main errors, sub-errors, etc.); second, errors are analyzed and diagnosed in priority order starting from the highest priority. This segmentation allows comprehensive error detection while maintaining analysis accuracy by handling errors systematically rather than simultaneously.
2Reliability
If log data from aerosol generating device is received and analyzed, then error determination capability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an error analysis device as an intermediary system that receives log data from the aerosol generating device and performs error determination externally. This intermediary approach improves error determination capability by dedicating specialized analysis resources while avoiding the complexity of embedding complex error analysis functionality directly within the aerosol generating device itself.
Data Source
AI summary
An error analysis device for an aerosol generating device includes: a communication interface configured to receive log data from the aerosol generating device; and a processor configured to determine at least one error that occurred in the aerosol generating device based on the log data that is received. The log data according to an embodiment may include logs corresponding to events that occurred in the aerosol generating device.
