Data Terminal Queue Priority Adjustment for Emergency Transmission
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing prehospital emergency systems face challenges in transmitting real-time patient data, such as vital signs, audio, and video, due to network congestion and fixed bandwidth, leading to delayed or lost data, which hinders timely diagnosis and treatment.
Innovation Solution
The method involves adjusting network transmission service levels based on data characteristics like importance, instantaneity, and data types, using a data terminal with a processor that inserts data into specified queues or assigns priorities, and generates a transmission service request to a network server for optimized data transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If fixed bandwidth network transmission is used, then network infrastructure is simple and stable, but data transmission speed decreases and network congestion occurs during emergencies
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic network transmission service level adjustment based on real-time data characteristics. The system dynamically changes transmission parameters such as bandwidth allocation and priority levels according to data importance, instantaneity requirements, and current network conditions, transforming the fixed bandwidth system into an adaptive dynamic system that optimizes transmission speed without requiring complete infrastructure redesign
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes network transmission parameters including service level, bandwidth allocation, and priority settings based on data characteristics. By adjusting these parameters dynamically rather than maintaining fixed values, the system achieves variable transmission speeds that match emergency requirements while using existing network infrastructure
2Reliability
If all data is transmitted with equal priority, then transmission process is simple, but critical data cannot be differentiated and may be lost or delayed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different transmission priorities and service levels to different data packets based on their specific characteristics such as importance and instantaneity requirements. Critical data receives higher priority and dedicated bandwidth while less urgent data uses standard transmission channels, ensuring reliable delivery of vital information without uniformly treating all data
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments data transmission into multiple priority levels and queues. Data is divided into different transmission groups based on characteristics, with each group receiving appropriate service level treatment. This segmentation ensures critical data is separated and prioritized while maintaining manageable complexity through structured classification
3Productivity
If network transmission service level is increased for all data, then transmission speed improves, but network resources are wasted on non-critical data
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies high-priority transmission service levels only to the necessary portion of data that requires urgent delivery, rather than elevating all data to high priority. Critical data receives enhanced transmission resources while non-critical data uses standard service levels, achieving high transmission efficiency for important information without wasting network resources
4Adaptability or versatility
If dynamic service level adjustment is implemented, then data transmission adapts to requirements, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically evaluates data characteristics and determines appropriate transmission service levels without requiring manual intervention. The terminal device itself performs the adaptation by analyzing data attributes and selecting suitable transmission parameters, enabling dynamic adaptability while keeping the control system relatively simple through automated decision-making

AI summary
This disclosure relates to methods for adjusting network transmission service levels, data terminals, and network servers. The method for adjusting a network transmission service level, used in a data terminal, comprises: obtaining data to be transmitted; inserting the data into specified queues or assigning priorities to the data according to one or more data characteristics selected from importance, instantaneity, data resources, and data types; transmitting a transmission service request to a network server, wherein the transmission service request includes information about the network transmission service level requested and corresponding network configuration parameters; and using the network transmission service provided by the network server according to the transmission service request to transmit the data in queues or the data whose priorities correspond to the network transmission service level provided. The data terminal could ask the network transmission service provider to provide different network transmission service to improve the instantaneity and stability of data transmission.
