Solution Overview

Problem

Current network processing optimization methods are inadequate for mobile terminals with changing use characteristics, as they primarily rely on service information that changes infrequently, necessitating the use of other information for dynamic optimization.

Innovation Solution

A communication system comprising an application server that detects terminal behavior and a service common apparatus that receives and transmits terminal identifiers and behavior information to a mobile network node to optimize parameters, allowing for dynamic adjustment of communication resources based on changing mobility and communication characteristics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If network processing is optimized using service information that changes infrequently, then optimization for fixed characteristics is achieved, but optimization for changing use characteristics cannot be performed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to changing terminal characteristicsVSAvoidlack of behavior information
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The application server performs preliminary detection of terminal behavior characteristics and stores this information before network processing optimization is needed. This allows the network node to later retrieve and use this pre-collected behavior information for dynamic optimization without requiring real-time information gathering.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

An application server acts as an intermediary between the terminal and the network node. The application server collects terminal behavior information and transmits it to the network node, enabling the network node to optimize processing based on terminal characteristics without the terminal directly communicating with the network node.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If network processing is optimized for terminals with fixed characteristics, then control processing for mobile terminals is reduced, but terminals with changing characteristics cannot be dynamically optimized

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork processing efficiencyVSAvoidadaptability to varying mobility patterns
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system transitions from static optimization based on fixed terminal characteristics to dynamic optimization by continuously detecting and responding to changing terminal behavior. The network node adjusts processing parameters based on real-time or near-real-time behavior information received from the application server.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

A feedback mechanism is established where terminal behavior information is continuously detected by the application server and fed back to the network node. This feedback loop enables the network node to adapt its processing optimization based on actual terminal behavior patterns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Loss of time

If position registration interval is extended for fixed terminals, then control processing is reduced, but terminals with changing characteristics require more frequent updates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveposition registration timeVSAvoidposition registration accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different position registration strategies to different terminals based on their specific behavior characteristics. Terminals with changing characteristics receive more frequent position registration updates, while fixed terminals can use extended intervals, allowing each terminal to be optimized according to its local needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
