Communication Apparatus Dynamic Access Mode Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
When a mobile device with a phone function forms a specific state for communication with a communication apparatus, incoming calls can disrupt this communication, rendering the apparatus unavailable for other devices and processes.
Innovation Solution
The communication apparatus switches from a high priority mode to a low priority mode upon receiving call information, allowing partial processing from other mobile devices while ensuring the primary processing can resume after the call is completed.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a mobile device forms a specific state for communication with a communication apparatus, then the mobile device can use a predetermined function of the communication apparatus, but the communication apparatus becomes unavailable for other mobile devices and processing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the access control mode changeable based on the state of the mobile device. The communication apparatus dynamically switches between exclusive access mode (when the mobile device is in active state) and shared access mode (when the mobile device is in idle state), allowing the system to adapt its behavior to current conditions and maximize resource utilization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the access control parameter from fixed exclusive access to variable access based on device state. By monitoring whether the mobile device is in active or idle state, the system adjusts the access rights granted to other mobile devices, thereby optimizing the utilization rate of the communication apparatus without compromising the primary device's functionality.
2Reliability
If a mobile device with telephone function forms a specific state for communication, then communication processing can be executed, but incoming calls disrupt the communication and render the apparatus unavailable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by detecting incoming call states in advance and proactively switching the communication apparatus to a state that allows other processing to continue. Before the telephone call fully disrupts the communication, the system prepares by adjusting the access control mode, thereby maintaining both communication reliability and apparatus availability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts the access control mode based on the telephone call state. When an incoming call is detected, the communication apparatus transitions from exclusive access mode to shared access mode, allowing other mobile devices to continue using the apparatus while the primary device handles the call, thus maintaining both communication continuity and overall system productivity.
3Reliability
If the communication apparatus restricts access to ensure dedicated processing, then processing reliability is improved, but resource utilization efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the access control parameter from fixed to variable based on device state. By monitoring the active/idle state of the primary mobile device and adjusting the access rights accordingly, the system maintains high processing reliability when needed while minimizing resource idle time when the device is not actively using the communication apparatus.

AI summary
A communication apparatus configured to form a first state, which is a specific state for performing communication with a first mobile device having a telephone function, and a second state, which is the specific state, if call receiving information, which is output from the first mobile device due to the first mobile device receiving a call request from external, is received while the first state is formed. In the first state, an execution of first processing instructed from the first mobile device is capable and an execution of a plurality of processing including the first processing, which is instructed from a second mobile device different from the first mobile device, is incapable. In the second state, an execution of a part of processing among the plurality of processing incapable in the first state is capable.
