1Device complexity
If wires are wound in parallel only, then the winding structure is simple, but wire positioning becomes unstable leading to misplacement
Solution Approach 1:
The winding process is segmented into distinct phases: parallel winding sections and crossing sections. The crossing sections are further divided into specific quarter-turn intervals (1/4 turn, 1 1/4 turn, 2 1/4 turn, etc.) where wires alternate crossing patterns. This segmentation provides stable positioning points that prevent wire misplacement while maintaining overall structural organization.
Solution Approach 2:
The crossing sections act as intermediary elements between parallel winding sections. At these intermediate crossing points, wires are deliberately positioned to cross and lock into place, serving as stabilizing anchors that prevent slippage during subsequent parallel winding operations. This intermediary crossing mechanism ensures wire stability without requiring complete re-winding.
2Quantity of substance
If stacking winding is used to increase inductance, then inductance increases in limited space, but magnetic permeability variation degrades noise immunity
Solution Approach 1:
The winding method implements periodic crossing actions at regular intervals (every 1/4 turn, 1 1/4 turn, 2 1/4 turn, etc.) throughout the winding process. This periodic crossing pattern creates consistent geometric relationships between wires and magnetic core, ensuring uniform magnetic coupling and stable inductance values across different operating frequencies, thereby maintaining noise immunity.
Solution Approach 2:
The method changes the winding configuration parameter periodically by introducing crossing sections at specific intervals. This parameter change from pure parallel winding to periodic crossing winding optimizes the magnetic coupling between windings, maintaining consistent inductance values across frequency ranges while maximizing space utilization for increased inductance.
3Area of stationary object
If wires are allowed to cross freely, then space utilization improves, but wire misplacement increases due to downward slope
Solution Approach 1:
The crossing sections are planned and executed at predetermined intervals (1/4 turn, 1 1/4 turn, 2 1/4 turn, etc.) before any misplacement can occur. By establishing these crossing points in advance during the winding process, wires are proactively positioned and locked into correct locations, preventing the downward slope effect from causing misplacement in subsequent sections.
Solution Approach 2:
The winding method dynamically alternates between parallel winding mode and crossing mode at specific intervals. This dynamic switching allows wires to adapt their configuration - maintaining parallel alignment for most of the winding to ensure stability, while periodically crossing to maximize space utilization and reset positioning, thereby preventing cumulative misplacement errors.

Function Achieved in This Case
The revised method ensures stable wire placement, enhancing noise immunity and reducing electromagnetic interference by maintaining consistent inductance and canceling coupling current effects, thus improving mode conversion efficiency.
Implementation Method 1
the magnetic permeability of the magnetic core is frequency-dependent, and as a consequence, the inductances of the stacking winding and the bottom winding vary with the data rates of data transmission
