Solution Overview

Problem

Dynamic content delivery to user equipment (UE) is often unselective, leading to failure in receiving or playing subscribed content due to hardware and software configuration limitations, where the required configuration exceeds the UE's capabilities.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a method and apparatus for selective dynamic content delivery by filtering content based on preset filtering information, including UE capability information and filtering policies, to ensure compatibility and rationalize content delivery.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If dynamic contents are delivered to UE unselectively, then content delivery simplicity is improved, but content compatibility and reception reliability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent delivery simplicityVSAvoidcontent reception reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary filtering of dynamic contents based on UE capability information before delivery. The DCD server compares content requirements with UE capabilities in advance to pre-select compatible contents, ensuring reliable reception without compromising delivery simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts content selection parameters based on UE capability information. By changing the filtering criteria according to UE storage space, processing power, and other capabilities, the system maintains both simplicity and reliability in content delivery.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If content filtering based on UE capability is implemented, then content compatibility is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent compatibilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The DCD server acts as an intermediary between content providers and UE. It receives content from providers, filters based on UE capability information, and delivers compatible contents to UE, simplifying the overall system architecture while ensuring compatibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The filtering mechanism is designed to handle multiple content types and UE capabilities through a universal approach. The same filtering framework accommodates different content requirements and UE configurations without requiring separate handling mechanisms for each case.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Quantity of substance

If selective content delivery is implemented, then resource utilization is improved, but delivery speed decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource utilizationVSAvoiddelivery speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

By performing content filtering in advance based on UE capability information, the system pre-determines compatible contents before actual delivery. This preliminary action enables efficient resource utilization while maintaining fast delivery speeds since no real-time filtering is required during transmission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
