Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If threshold-based determination method is used for cell handover, then the method is simple to implement, but it cannot meet handover requirements in complex communication scenarios

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehandover requirement satisfactionVSAvoiddetermination method complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms the handover determination from simple threshold parameter comparison to multi-dimensional parameter analysis including signal strength, quality metrics, load conditions, and terminal device characteristics. This enables the system to adapt to complex scenarios by considering multiple parameters simultaneously rather than relying on single threshold values.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a determination module as an intermediary component that processes multiple input parameters and applies decision rules to generate handover recommendations. This mediator layer separates the complexity of multi-parameter analysis from the basic handover execution, allowing sophisticated decision-making while maintaining implementation simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If AI-based model is used to determine target cell, then handover performance in complex scenarios is improved, but computational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehandover performanceVSAvoidcomputational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the handover determination process into distinct functional modules: parameter collection module, determination module with AI model, and handover execution module. This segmentation allows the computationally intensive AI model to be isolated and optimized separately, improving overall reliability while managing computational complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary data collection and preprocessing of communication parameters before they are fed into the AI model. By preparing input data in advance and pre-training the AI model with historical handover data, the system reduces real-time computational burden while maintaining high handover performance in complex scenarios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
