Solution Overview

Problem

Existing decoding apparatuses require significant computational resources to detect multiple types of copyright information, leading to increased processing capabilities and inefficiencies.

Innovation Solution

A decoding apparatus with a detection control section that manages multiple copyright information detection sections to operate only when necessary, reducing computation by alternating or minimizing the detection processes of these sections based on the computational load of each.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple copyright information detection sections operate simultaneously to detect different types of copyright information, then the detection capability is improved, but the amount of computation required increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection capabilityVSAvoidamount of computation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSPower

Solution Approach 1:

The detection control section controls the plurality of copyright information detection sections to operate in an alternating or periodic manner rather than simultaneously. Each detection section is activated only when its specific detection task is needed, allowing the system to maintain comprehensive detection capability while significantly reducing the computational load at any given moment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

2Reliability

If multiple copyright information detection sections operate simultaneously, then comprehensive copyright detection is achieved, but the processing capability required increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive copyright detectionVSAvoidprocessing capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts the operation state of each copyright information detection section based on real-time needs. The detection control section activates or deactivates specific detection sections depending on what type of copyright information needs to be detected, making the processing capability flexible and adaptive rather than statically high for all scenarios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Loss of time

If all detection sections operate continuously, then no detection time is lost, but the computational load is maximized

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection timeVSAvoidcomputational load
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSPower

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of having all detection sections operate continuously (excessive action), the system activates only the necessary detection sections for each specific detection task (partial action). This ensures that detection time is not wasted while avoiding the unnecessary computational burden of running all sections simultaneously when only one or a few are needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
