Solution Overview

Problem

Existing network anomaly handling methods in mobile networks result in discontinuity of network usage due to delayed response to network anomalies, affecting user experience, especially in areas with frequent network issues.

Innovation Solution

A method where an electronic device sends cell and operator information to a server, receives an anomaly list with predicted network recovery strategies, and executes these strategies proactively to prevent network disruptions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If network anomaly handling is performed after anomaly detection, then network usage continuity is maintained, but user experience deteriorates due to delayed response and disruptions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork usage continuityVSAvoiduser experience
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by predicting network anomalies before they occur and executing recovery strategies in advance. The electronic device receives anomaly prediction information from the server and proactively executes recovery strategies (such as switching to alternative networks or adjusting connection parameters) before the actual anomaly occurs, thereby maintaining continuous network usage and improving user experience by eliminating disruptions rather than responding to them after occurrence.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If real-time network monitoring and prediction is implemented, then network anomaly response is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork anomaly responseVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The server acts as an intermediary that performs complex network monitoring, data analysis, and anomaly prediction functions remotely. The electronic device simply sends its identifier to the server and receives prediction results and recovery strategies. This intermediary approach allows real-time network monitoring and prediction to be implemented without significantly increasing the complexity of the electronic device itself, as the computational burden is shifted to the server.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The server provides multi-functional services including network monitoring, anomaly prediction, and recovery strategy generation for multiple electronic devices simultaneously. This universal approach consolidates complex functions into a single system that serves multiple clients, reducing the complexity burden on individual devices while maintaining reliable real-time network anomaly response.

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

3Reliability

If proactive recovery strategies are executed, then network disruption is minimized, but information processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork continuityVSAvoidinformation processing load
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential information needed for anomaly prediction and recovery from the vast amount of network data. Instead of processing all network traffic details locally, the electronic device sends minimal identifier information to the server, which extracts and analyzes only the necessary patterns to generate predictions and recovery strategies. This extraction approach reduces information processing requirements at the device level while maintaining effective anomaly response.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
