Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Subscribers lack direct access to network data collected by network infrastructure due to security concerns, necessitating the creation of imprecise custom tools that require significant resources and time, leading to inadequate analysis of device-network interactions, which are only utilized after issues arise.
Innovation Solution
A digital twin system provides access to network data through a digital twin system, displaying real-time device interactions with network infrastructure components, filtering relevant data, and using correlation graphs to maintain accurate network representations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If subscribers create custom network data analysis tools to analyze device-network interactions, then they can perform network analysis functions, but the tools are imprecise and require significant resources and time to create and maintain
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a digital twin system that copies the network infrastructure and device interactions into a virtual environment. This digital twin provides accurate network data analysis without requiring subscribers to build complex custom tools, as the twin systematically replicates network behavior and provides precise measurement capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The digital twin acts as an intermediary between the actual network infrastructure and the subscriber's analysis tools. It receives data from network infrastructure components and devices, processes it systematically, and provides accurate analysis results to subscribers, eliminating the need for them to directly access or replicate complex network data collection mechanisms.
2Loss of information
If subscribers dedicate resources to create data labs and replicas of network technology, then they can analyze device interactions, but the replicas are imprecise because they lack access to the same level of data as the network owner
Solution Approach 1:
The digital twin systematically copies not only the network infrastructure but also the complete data flow and interactions between devices and network components. This ensures that subscribers receive comprehensive network data without needing to build their own data collection infrastructure, eliminating data incompleteness while maintaining analysis efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The digital twin serves multiple functions simultaneously: it replicates network infrastructure, collects data from all network components, processes interactions between devices and network elements, and provides analysis capabilities. This multi-functional approach ensures complete data availability while improving analysis efficiency through integrated processing.
3Loss of time
If network data is made accessible to subscribers in real-time, then accurate analysis of device-network interactions is enabled, but security concerns arise from exposing network infrastructure data
Solution Approach 1:
The digital twin serves as a secure intermediary that receives data from network infrastructure components through controlled interfaces, processes it in isolation, and provides real-time access to subscribers without exposing the actual network infrastructure. This mediator approach enables timely data access while maintaining security boundaries between the network and external users.
Solution Approach 2:
By creating a virtual copy of the network infrastructure and its data flows, the system provides real-time access to network data without exposing the actual infrastructure. The digital twin replicates all necessary data and interactions in a secure virtual environment, allowing timely analysis while protecting the physical network from security threats.

AI summary
A digital twin system is able to provide a virtual representation of physical device and network infrastructure components in real-time. The digital twin system receives an indication of a user account associated with one or more devices associated with a network. The digital twin system identifies one or more network infrastructure components for the network which interact with the one or more devices associated with the user account. The digital twin system receives data describing the interaction of the devices with the network infrastructure components. The digital twin system causes the data describing the interaction of the devices to be displayed to a user.
