VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a base station uses a fixed measurement frequency range, then the configuration is simple, but it cannot adapt to varying traffic loads and device capabilities leading to suboptimal resource utilization

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveadaptation to traffic characteristics and device capabilitiesVSAvoidmeasurement frequency range configuration

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic adjustment of measurement frequency ranges based on real-time traffic characteristics and device capabilities. The base station transitions from a fixed frequency range to a dynamic one that automatically adapts to changing network conditions, enabling optimal resource allocation while maintaining manageable complexity through automated decision-making algorithms.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of measurement frequency range according to traffic load and device capability conditions. By adjusting this key parameter dynamically, the system optimizes measurement accuracy and resource utilization without requiring complex manual configuration, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and complexity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If the base station performs frequent measurements to optimize resource allocation, then communication efficiency improves, but measurement overhead and latency increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveresource allocation efficiencyVSAvoidmeasurement time and overhead

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements periodic measurements with dynamically adjusted intervals rather than continuous measurements. The measurement frequency is optimized based on network conditions, performing measurements frequently enough to capture traffic characteristics changes while avoiding excessive measurement overhead and latency associated with continuous monitoring.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The base station uses feedback from measurement results to dynamically adjust future measurement timing and frequency. This feedback mechanism allows the system to perform measurements only when necessary based on detected changes in traffic patterns, optimizing the balance between measurement accuracy and time efficiency.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If the base station configures multiple frequency ranges for different devices, then device capability support improves, but configuration complexity and processing overhead increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesupport for varying device capabilitiesVSAvoidfrequency range configuration management

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The base station automatically determines and configures appropriate frequency ranges based on detected device capabilities without requiring manual intervention or complex pre-configuration. The system performs self-adjustment by analyzing traffic characteristics and device responses, reducing configuration complexity while maintaining broad device compatibility.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the frequency range configuration into manageable components based on device capability categories. Instead of managing a single complex configuration for all devices, the system divides the configuration space into discrete, manageable segments that can be selectively applied to different device types, simplifying the overall configuration management process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation
