Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the base station continuously monitors wireless charging ability information of all base stations, then the terminal can switch to suitable base stations for charging, but it causes unnecessary measurements and wastes system resources
Solution Approach 1:
The base station proactively sends indication information to the terminal before the terminal needs to switch base stations, instructing the terminal to measure wireless charging ability information of specific other base stations. This preliminary action ensures the terminal has the necessary measurement data ready when base station switching is needed, avoiding last-minute rushed measurements and reducing overall system resource waste.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal autonomously determines which base stations to measure based on reception of indication information from the current base station. Instead of the base station continuously monitoring all possible base stations, the terminal self-manages the measurement process by selectively measuring only those base stations indicated as potential targets, thereby reducing unnecessary measurements and optimizing resource utilization.
2Loss of information
If the terminal measures wireless charging ability information of all base stations, then complete information is available for base station switching, but it increases measurement overhead and energy consumption
Solution Approach 1:
The indication information extracts and identifies only the specific other base stations that the terminal needs to measure, rather than requiring the terminal to measure all base stations. This extraction principle allows the terminal to focus measurement resources on a selective subset of base stations, maintaining information completeness for switching decisions while significantly reducing measurement overhead and terminal energy consumption.
3Measurement precision
If the base station sends frequent measurement instructions to the terminal, then real-time wireless charging ability information is obtained, but it increases signaling overhead and reduces system efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of continuous or frequent measurement instructions, the base station sends measurement instructions periodically or event-driven based on terminal movement or charging status changes. This periodic action maintains measurement timeliness by updating information at appropriate intervals while significantly reducing signaling overhead compared to continuous monitoring approaches.
