Broadcast Receiver Storage Capacity Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Broadcast receiving systems face challenges in determining the reception status of applications and managing storage capacity, leading to difficulties in application transmission and implementation due to unknown issues and storage limitations.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that utilize a network management protocol, such as SNMP, to collect and transmit information about the remaining storage capacity of the broadcast receiver, allowing the broadcast transmitting terminal to request and adapt the application transmission based on the available storage, ensuring successful implementation and storage of applications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a broadcast transmitting terminal transmits plenty of applications to a broadcast receiver, then the application delivery capability is improved, but the ability to know reception status and recognize problems is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the broadcast receiver automatically transmits reception status information (storage remaining size, application execution status) back to the broadcast transmitting terminal. This allows the terminal to monitor whether applications are properly received and stored, enabling problem recognition and resolution while maintaining high application delivery capability.
2Quantity of substance
If the volume of an application received by a broadcast receiver exceeds the available capacity of a storage device, then the application transmission volume is improved, but the ability to store or implement the received application is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by having the broadcast receiver transmit its storage device's remaining capacity information to the broadcast transmitting terminal before application transmission. The terminal uses this information to determine whether to transmit the application and adjust transmission parameters accordingly, preventing storage overflow and ensuring reliable application storage and implementation.
Data Source
AI summary
A broadcast receiving apparatus, application transmitting/receiving method and reception status information transmitting method are disclosed, by which information associated with a broadcast reception status can be transmitted to a broadcast transmitting terminal and by which a problem of a storage device can be transmitted to a broadcast transmitting terminal in advance in case of attempting to receive an application or the like that will be transmitted by the broadcast transmitting terminal. The present invention includes collecting information indicating a remaining size of the storage device and transmitting the collected information according to a network management protocol.
