Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If beam related information is directly transmitted between base station and terminal to improve beam prediction accuracy, then prediction accuracy is improved, but private information exposure risk increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebeam prediction accuracyVSAvoidprivate information exposure risk
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces virtual identifiers as an intermediary element between the beam related information and the prediction process. Instead of directly transmitting sensitive beam information, the system uses these virtual identifiers as mediators that carry predictive capabilities while masking the actual beam parameters, thus resolving the contradiction between prediction accuracy and information security

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a copy of beam related information in the form of virtual identifiers that preserve the essential predictive characteristics without exposing the original sensitive data. These virtual identifiers are generated from beam information through a processing mechanism that maintains prediction accuracy while eliminating direct exposure of private beam parameters

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
