Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a fixed antenna radiator structure is used, then the device complexity is reduced, but the communication quality deteriorates under different operation states
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by transforming the fixed antenna radiator structure into a dynamic one. The antenna radiator is made amorphous (liquid-like) and can be reconfigured in real-time through a control system that adjusts its shape and position within the container based on different operation states, enabling the antenna to adapt to various communication scenarios while maintaining manageable device complexity through automated control.
2Ease of manufacture
If the antenna radiator configuration is fixed, then the ease of manufacture is improved, but the adaptability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by utilizing the unique properties of amorphous materials that can change their physical state and configuration parameters (shape, position) in response to external stimuli such as temperature or electromagnetic fields. The antenna radiator transitions between different operational configurations by changing its physical parameters, enabling multi-scenario adaptability while maintaining a relatively simple manufacturing process for the container and control system.
3Device complexity
If the antenna structure is simplified, then the device complexity is reduced, but the communication effect deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by implementing an automated control system that autonomously monitors the terminal's operation state and automatically adjusts the antenna radiator configuration without requiring manual intervention. The control unit receives operation state information, determines the optimal antenna configuration, and actuates the adjustment mechanism accordingly, enabling the simplified antenna structure to achieve optimal communication effects through self-adjustment.
