Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If scan parameter uses factory default settings, then connection speed is improved, but data transmission stability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection speedVSAvoiddata transmission stability
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the scan parameters adjustable rather than fixed. The system dynamically changes scan window durations and scan types based on different usage scenarios. When connected to multiple Bluetooth devices, the terminal device adjusts scan parameters to allocate scan resources appropriately, ensuring both fast connection and stable data transmission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent directly applies parameter changes by modifying scan window duration and scan type parameters. The terminal device adjusts these parameters based on the number of connected Bluetooth devices and current usage scenarios, transforming fixed factory defaults into adaptable parameters that optimize both connection speed and transmission stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Speed

If scan window duration is increased for faster discovery, then connection speed is improved, but data transmission time is reduced causing lag

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvediscovery speedVSAvoiddata transmission time
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent makes scan window duration dynamic rather than static. The terminal device adjusts scan window duration based on the number of connected Bluetooth devices and current usage scenarios, allowing the system to optimize the balance between discovery speed and data transmission time in real-time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements periodic adjustment of scan parameters. The terminal device periodically evaluates the current usage scenario and connected device count, then adjusts scan window duration accordingly, creating a rhythmic optimization cycle that maintains both fast discovery and adequate transmission time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

3Adaptability or versatility

If terminal device performs scanning during data transmission, then connection versatility is improved, but data transmission stability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection versatilityVSAvoiddata transmission stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making scan parameters adjustable based on the number of connected devices. When multiple Bluetooth devices are connected, the terminal device dynamically adjusts scan parameters to reduce scan intensity, thereby maintaining connection versatility while improving data transmission stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

4Device complexity

If factory default scan parameters are used, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to different usage scenarios deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
