Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the analysis method performed in a certain communication system is applied to other communication systems, then the evaluation or analysis can be performed efficiently across multiple systems, but the analysis accuracy deteriorates due to configuration differences between systems

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanalysis efficiencyVSAvoidanalysis accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by transferring only specific learning model information (parameters, structure, training data characteristics) that are relevant to the target communication system's configuration, rather than applying the entire analysis method universally. This allows the analysis to be adapted to local characteristics of each communication system, maintaining accuracy while achieving efficiency through selective information transfer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes parameter changes by modifying the learning model information based on the statistical characteristics of the target communication system. The learning model parameters are adjusted according to the specific configuration and data distribution of each communication system, enabling accurate analysis across different systems while maintaining efficiency through parameter optimization rather than complete retraining.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If machine learning is used to generate learning models from communication logs, then data processing speed increases compared to manual processing, but the complexity of the system increases due to the need for model generation and management

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata processing speedVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies copying by creating and transferring learning model information (parameters, structure, training data characteristics) from one communication system to another. Instead of manually processing data or completely retraining models in each system, the learned information is copied and adapted, maintaining high processing speed while reducing the complexity of model generation and management across multiple systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
