Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods for adjusting antenna parameters, such as signal strength, require significant system resources and cannot be adjusted in real time according to environmental conditions, leading to suboptimal radio signal propagation and communication states.

Innovation Solution

A method that acquires and compares environmental data sets to determine the current scene and sets antenna parameters accordingly, ensuring ideal communication states by matching the antenna parameters with preset parameters defined for specific scenes, thereby adjusting parameters in real time based on location and environmental conditions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If antenna parameters are adjusted by adjusting signal noise ratio (SNR), then signal strength can be controlled, but system resources are consumed excessively and real-time adjustment according to environmental conditions is not achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereal-time adjustment capabilityVSAvoidsystem resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-collects environmental data (temperature, humidity, pressure, etc.) and pre-determines optimal antenna parameters for different environmental conditions. When adjustment is needed, the system simply retrieves pre-calculated parameters based on current environmental sensors, avoiding resource-intensive real-time calculations while achieving adaptive adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the traditional SNR-based adjustment mechanism with an environment-based adjustment mechanism. Instead of continuously monitoring and adjusting SNR (which consumes system resources), the system uses environmental sensors to determine the current scene and selects corresponding pre-stored antenna parameters, substituting a resource-heavy mechanical adjustment process with a lighter sensor-based selection process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If antenna parameters are adjusted in real time according to environmental conditions, then optimal signal propagation can be achieved, but system complexity and calculation burden increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication reliabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-establishes a database of environmental data and corresponding optimal antenna parameters for various scenes (indoor, outdoor, urban, rural, etc.). This preliminary preparation allows the system to achieve reliable communication by simply matching current environmental readings with pre-determined parameters, avoiding complex real-time optimization calculations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates simplified representations of different environmental scenes by collecting representative environmental data and corresponding optimal antenna parameters in advance. Instead of dealing with the full complexity of real-time environmental analysis, the system uses these pre-created scene models (copies) to quickly determine appropriate antenna settings, reducing computational burden while maintaining communication reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Adaptability or versatility

If traditional SNR adjustment methods are used, then system implementation is simpler, but antenna parameters cannot adapt to different environmental scenes

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-collects environmental data for various scenes and pre-determines optimal antenna parameters during the manufacturing or initialization phase. This preliminary action embeds environmental adaptability into the system without requiring complex real-time processing, thus maintaining implementation simplicity while achieving environmental adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the basis for antenna parameter adjustment from SNR (a signal quality metric) to environmental parameters (temperature, humidity, pressure, etc.). By using environmental parameters as the adjustment basis and pre-storing corresponding optimal values, the system achieves environmental adaptability while keeping the adjustment mechanism simple and easy to implement.

Inventive Principle:
