Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional wireless communication systems often fail to achieve rapid communication due to unsuccessful transmissions, leading to inefficiencies.

Innovation Solution

A base wireless device with multiple transmission buffers that store signals with different destinations, allowing transmission in a predetermined order regardless of success, and overwriting successfully transmitted buffers with new signals to ensure continuous communication.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If transmission buffers wait for successful transmission before being reused, then transmission reliability is improved, but communication speed deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission reliabilityVSAvoidcommunication speed
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The transmission buffer is divided into two independent buffers (first transmission buffer and second transmission buffer) that operate in parallel. While one buffer is being used for transmission, the other buffer can be prepared or reused, eliminating the sequential waiting time and enabling continuous transmission operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system prepares transmission data in advance by storing it in the available buffer before transmission begins. This preliminary action ensures that when a buffer becomes available, transmission can start immediately without waiting for data preparation, thus improving communication speed while maintaining reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If multiple signals are transmitted simultaneously to different destinations, then productivity is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication throughputVSAvoidbuffer management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses separate transmission buffers for different transmission destinations or transmission operations. This segmentation allows multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously to different destinations without interference, improving productivity while keeping each buffer's management relatively simple and independent.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The transmission buffer system is designed to handle multiple transmission tasks using the same buffer structure. The buffers can be switched between different destinations or transmission operations, providing multi-functionality that improves productivity without requiring completely separate buffer systems for each destination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

A base wireless device (14) includes plural transmission buffers (46A, 46B) storing plural signals having transmission destinations that are different from each other, a transmission processing unit (26A) transmitting the signals to plural remote wireless devices (16) respectively, by transmitting the signals stored in the plural transmission buffers in a predetermined order, regardless of whether or not each transmission has been made successfully, and a storage control unit (28), wherein when a transmission of a signal (DPA) stored in one of the transmission buffers (46A) has been made successfully, the storage control unit overwrites the one transmission buffer (46A) from which the transmission has been made successfully, with another signal (DPC) to be transmitted to a transmission destination (16C) that is different from a transmission destination (16B) of a signal (DPB) stored in a transmission buffer (46B) other than the one transmission buffer (46A) from which the transmission has been made successfully, among the plural transmission buffers.
