Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Manual operations for obtaining configuration data in radio communications systems are error-prone and time-consuming, reducing the reliability and efficiency of base station devices.
Innovation Solution
A method where base station devices autonomously obtain site identifier information and send it to a network management system, which then provides corresponding configuration data, improving the efficiency and reliability of the data acquisition process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual operations are used to obtain configuration data, then the process is simple to implement, but the reliability and efficiency are reduced due to errors and time consumption
Solution Approach 1:
The base station device automatically obtains site identifier information and sends it to the network management system, which automatically retrieves and returns the corresponding configuration data. This self-service mechanism eliminates manual intervention, reducing errors and improving reliability while the standardized interface keeps the process manageable in complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The network management system pre-establishes a correspondence between site identifier information and configuration data. When the base station device sends the site identifier, the network management system can quickly retrieve the pre-prepared configuration data, improving efficiency without requiring complex real-time processing
2Productivity
If manual operations are used to obtain configuration data, then the process is easy to operate, but the operation time is extended
Solution Approach 1:
The manual mechanical process of obtaining configuration data is replaced with an automated electronic communication system. The base station device electronically transmits site identifier information to the network management system, which electronically retrieves and transmits the configuration data, dramatically reducing operation time while maintaining ease of operation through automated interfaces
Solution Approach 2:
The network management system stores copies of configuration data associated with site identifier information. When needed, the system retrieves the pre-stored copy corresponding to the received site identifier, avoiding time-consuming real-time generation or search of configuration data
3Reliability
If manual operations are used to obtain configuration data, then human judgment can be applied, but errors increase and reliability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic identification, retrieval, and transmission of configuration data based on the site identifier information. This automated self-service process eliminates human judgment and manual operations that cause errors, achieving high reliability through consistent automated execution while establishing a complete automation level for the configuration acquisition process
