Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data transmission methods delay the transmission of data sequences with different attributes until the completion of data sequences with the same attribute, causing inefficiencies in data processing and transmission.

Innovation Solution

A data collection system that allows simultaneous transmission of data sequences with different attributes by adding identifiers to each data sequence, enabling the mixing and transmission of data blocks from multiple sequences together, thereby reducing delays and improving processing efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If data sequences are transmitted in groups with the same attribute, then data transmission reliability is improved, but transmission time is increased due to delays

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission reliabilityVSAvoidtransmission time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments data into data sequences with specific attributes (e.g., voice, video, data) and transmits them in parallel rather than sequentially. This allows multiple data sequences with different attributes to be transmitted simultaneously, reducing the waiting time that would occur if they were grouped by attribute completion, while maintaining reliability through proper sequence management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic transmission control where the transmission apparatus can selectively transmit data sequences based on their attributes and availability. The system dynamically adjusts transmission timing and grouping, allowing flexible mixing of data sequences with different attributes while maintaining reliable transmission through proper identification and tracking of each sequence.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Manufacturing precision

If data sequences with different attributes are transmitted separately, then data processing precision is improved, but productivity is reduced due to sequential transmission requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata processing precisionVSAvoiddata transmission productivity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the transmission of data sequences with different attributes into a single parallel transmission process. Instead of transmitting voice, video, and data sequences separately in sequential groups, the system combines them into concurrent transmission streams, thereby improving productivity while maintaining processing precision through proper attribute identification and sequence management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of transmission organization by allowing data sequences to be transmitted across multiple simultaneous channels rather than being constrained to single-attribute groups. This dimensional change in transmission structure enables parallel processing of different data types while maintaining the integrity and precision of each sequence through proper identification markers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

A data sequence that includes pieces of data that have one attribute is transmitted together with a data sequence that includes pieces of data that have another attribute. An acquisition unit acquires a plurality of pieces of data that have attributes that are different from each other. An addition unit, upon a connection with the server apparatus being established, adds, to each piece of data included in each of a plurality of data sequences that include different pieces of data of the plurality of pieces of data thus acquired, an identifier that identifies a data group to which the piece of data belongs, of a plurality of data groups, and that is associated with the connection. A transmission unit transmits the plurality of data sequences to which the identifier is added, to the server apparatus via the connection, by inserting, between pieces of data included in one data sequence of the plurality of data sequences, a piece of data included in another data sequence of the plurality of data sequences.
