Dynamic Wireless Settings for Reserved Locations
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Fixed settings in wireless communication systems compromise security, as they do not adapt to individual users and can lead to unauthorized access.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus with a changing unit that dynamically adjusts wireless communication settings based on the user who has reserved a location, including changing settings such as SSID, password, and communication speed, to enhance security.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If fixed settings are used in wireless communication, then device complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but security is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic wireless communication settings that automatically change based on location reservations. The system transitions from static, fixed settings to dynamic, adaptable settings that are tailored to each user and location combination, thereby improving security while maintaining ease of operation through automated management
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes wireless communication parameters (such as SSID, password, or other security settings) based on location reservation data. Different parameters are applied for different users at different locations, providing customized security configurations that enhance overall system security without requiring user intervention
2Device complexity
If fixed settings are used in wireless communication, then device complexity is reduced, but security is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides self-service functionality where the wireless communication settings are automatically configured and changed based on location reservation information. The apparatus itself manages the complexity of generating and applying different settings for different users, eliminating the need for manual configuration while maintaining high security standards
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring wireless communication settings based on location reservations before actual use. The apparatus prepares customized security settings in advance for each user-location combination, so that when a user reserves a location, the appropriate secure configuration is already in place, reducing both complexity and security risks
