Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If 5G protocol is used for service transmission, then transmission performance is maintained, but service information and computing load information from mobile communication networks are not integrated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a service providing node as an intermediary between mobile communication networks and wired transmission networks. This node collects service information and computing load information from mobile networks and forwards it to wired network routers, enabling information integration without requiring complex protocol modifications in the core 5G infrastructure.
Solution Approach 2:
The system divides the information integration function into separate components: mobile communication networks provide service information, service providing nodes aggregate and manage the data, and wired transmission networks receive and utilize the information for routing decisions. This segmentation allows each component to maintain its existing protocol while achieving overall integration.
2Productivity
If service node selection is based only on wired transmission network resources, then routing overhead is reduced, but mobile network service information and computing load information are not considered
Solution Approach 1:
The service providing node performs preliminary actions by collecting and aggregating service information and computing load information from mobile communication networks before wired network routing decisions are made. This advance preparation ensures that wired network routers have access to comprehensive information for making informed service node selections.
Solution Approach 2:
The system establishes a feedback mechanism where service providing nodes continuously monitor mobile network service information and computing load status, then feed this information back to wired transmission networks. This enables dynamic service node selection that adapts to real-time conditions in both mobile and wired networks.
3Device complexity
If mobile network transmission performance is not considered, then service node selection is simplified, but quality of computing/storage service is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates mobile network transmission performance parameters (such as signal quality, bandwidth availability, and latency) into the service node selection criteria alongside wired network resources. By changing the selection parameters to include both mobile and wired network metrics, the system achieves comprehensive service quality assurance without excessive complexity through standardized measurement and evaluation methods.
