Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If standardized AI/ML models are used for network optimization, then implementation complexity is reduced, but QoS and QoE performance deteriorates due to lack of entity-specific optimizations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimplementation complexityVSAvoidQoS and QoE performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the AI/ML model into two distinct components: a standardized base model that handles general network optimization functions, and an entity-specific model that tailors optimizations to specific end devices based on their capabilities (RF modem identifiers, chipset information). This segmentation allows the system to maintain low implementation complexity through the standardized base while achieving high QoS/QoE performance through device-specific customization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by adapting the AI/ML model to specific local conditions of each end device. The system collects device-specific information (RF modem identifiers, chipset information) and uses this to customize the model parameters and configurations for each device, ensuring optimal performance tailored to local device characteristics rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Reliability

If entity-specific AI/ML models are implemented, then QoS and QoE performance is improved, but device complexity and LCM process complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveQoS and QoE performanceVSAvoidmodel management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-collecting and storing entity-specific information (RF modem identifiers, chipset information) during device initialization and registration phases. This advance preparation allows the system to quickly retrieve and apply appropriate model configurations during operation without adding complexity to real-time model management, as the device characteristics are already known and stored for future reference.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary component (the network device that manages AI/ML models) that acts as a mediator between the standardized model repository and the end devices. This intermediary handles the complexity of model selection, configuration, and updates by translating device-specific requirements into appropriate model parameters, thereby shielding the overall system from the full complexity of managing numerous entity-specific models while still delivering customized performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Ease of operation

If generic network optimization approaches are used, then ease of operation is maintained, but network and end device performance deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperational simplicityVSAvoidnetwork and end device performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by enabling the system to automatically collect device-specific information (RF modem identifiers, chipset information), select appropriate model configurations, and apply optimizations without requiring manual intervention. The network device autonomously manages the entire process of retrieving device characteristics, matching them with suitable model parameters, and implementing customized optimizations, thereby maintaining ease of operation while achieving high performance through entity-specific tailoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
