Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Use of energy by moving object
If energy management functions are added to the autonomous driving platform, then energy efficiency is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges energy management functions with the existing autonomous driving platform by integrating an energy management module that works concurrently with the autonomous driving module. This allows energy management capabilities to be combined with navigation, obstacle detection, and control functions already present in the platform, thereby improving energy efficiency without requiring a completely separate system.
Solution Approach 2:
The energy management module is designed to perform multiple functions including monitoring battery state, managing power distribution, analyzing regenerative braking energy, and controlling energy consumption across various vehicle systems. This multi-functional approach allows a single module to address diverse energy management needs, reducing overall system complexity while improving energy efficiency.
2Use of energy by moving object
If energy management functions are added to the autonomous driving platform, then energy efficiency is improved, but manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
By integrating energy management functions into the existing autonomous driving platform's hardware and software architecture, the patent avoids the need for entirely separate systems. This merging approach allows shared use of processors, sensors, and communication modules between autonomous driving and energy management functions, thereby reducing manufacturing costs while improving energy efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The energy management module is designed to leverage existing vehicle systems and components, such as using the same sensors and processors for both autonomous driving and energy management tasks. This multi-functional design reduces the need for additional dedicated hardware, thereby lowering manufacturing costs while achieving improved energy efficiency.
3Use of energy by moving object
If real-time energy management data and control strategies are provided, then energy efficiency is improved, but data processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The energy management module performs preliminary analysis of energy consumption patterns and battery state using pre-stored models and algorithms. By preparing energy management strategies in advance based on predicted driving conditions and battery state, the system reduces the complexity of real-time data processing while maintaining high energy efficiency through pre-computed control strategies.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms where energy management data from sensors and vehicle operations is continuously monitored and fed back to adjust control strategies in real-time. This feedback loop allows the system to optimize energy efficiency dynamically while managing data processing complexity through established control algorithms that process feedback information efficiently.
