Solution Overview

Problem

Current radio communication systems face challenges in efficiently managing virtual assistant search queries, particularly in public safety systems, due to limitations in channel bandwidth usage and response timing, which impede effective communication.

Innovation Solution

An artificial intelligence server with natural language processing capabilities is integrated into the communication system to optimize query and response management by adjusting verbosity, prioritizing responses, and intelligently interacting with a floor controller to minimize disruption and maximize channel usage, enabling efficient use of channel bandwidth and timely responses.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If the AI server provides detailed verbose responses to queries, then the accuracy and completeness of information is improved, but the channel bandwidth usage increases and response timing is delayed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidchannel bandwidth usage
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The AI server dynamically adjusts the verbosity of responses based on real-time channel conditions, query priority, and bandwidth availability. High-priority queries receive detailed verbose responses when bandwidth permits, while lower-priority queries receive condensed responses during congested periods, optimizing both information delivery and resource utilization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If the AI server processes multiple queries simultaneously from different devices, then the system productivity is improved, but the management complexity and response timing coordination becomes more difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery processing capacityVSAvoidsystem management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The AI server implements a feedback mechanism that continuously monitors channel occupancy, bandwidth availability, and query queue status. Based on this feedback, the server dynamically adjusts processing priorities, response timing, and verbosity levels for multiple concurrent queries, enabling efficient multi-device handling without overwhelming system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The floor controller acts as an intermediary between multiple querying devices and the AI server, coordinating request timing and managing channel access. This intermediary layer simplifies the AI server's management burden by handling low-level coordination while the server focuses on query processing and response generation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Ease of operation

If the AI server integrates natural language processing capabilities into the communication system, then the ease of operation is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery interface usabilityVSAvoidAI server architecture
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The AI server is designed as a multi-functional platform that handles not only natural language query processing but also channel management, bandwidth optimization, response prioritization, and verbosity control. This universal approach consolidates multiple functions into a single system, reducing overall complexity despite the advanced NLP capabilities

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

Efficient use of channel bandwidth response, response timing, along with the ability to acquire the most accurate and up to date response are provided for management of virtual assistant search queries within a communication system. Improved management is obtained using an artificial intelligence (AI) server controlling response activity to a query communication device by adjusting content of a verbose response to the query by varying the verbosity of the response based on channel availability. The channel availability is determined based on channel bandwidth and channel occupancy.
