Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If Bluetooth communication technology is used for data transmission, then data can be transmitted between mobile terminals, but the operations are complicated and the transmission speed is slow

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission speedVSAvoidmanual pairing operations
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automatic terminal discovery and authentication without user intervention. The sharing terminal automatically detects nearby terminals, verifies their identities, and establishes connections, eliminating the need for manual pairing operations while enabling fast data transmission

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Terminals are pre-registered in the system before actual data sharing occurs. The registration process establishes authentication credentials in advance, so that when data sharing is needed, the system can quickly authenticate and connect without requiring users to perform complex pairing procedures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If Bluetooth communication technology is used, then point-to-point data transmission is supported, but synchronous data sharing among multiple users cannot be achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesynchronous data sharing among multiple usersVSAvoidnetwork configuration
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables a single sharing terminal to simultaneously transmit data to multiple nearby terminals through automatic discovery and connection establishment. This multi-functionality allows one terminal to serve multiple recipients without requiring separate configurations for each connection

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces a centralized registration and discovery mechanism that mediates between the sharing terminal and multiple nearby terminals. This intermediary service handles authentication and connection management, simplifying the network configuration while enabling synchronous data sharing among multiple users

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A method for data sharing is provided. The method includes: searching, by a first terminal, for multiple nearby terminals, and establishing wireless connections with the discovered nearby terminals (S11), displaying on the display interface of the first terminal the nearby terminals already wirelessly connected to the first terminal and a transmittable file stored in the first terminal or the nearby terminals (S12), and receiving by the first terminal a file-transmission command and transmitting or receiving a file to or from the nearby terminals (S 13). A system for data sharing is also provided. By the above means, operations based on the present disclosure are simple and fast, enabling interconnections of mobile terminals within a close range, a mobile terminal can transmit a file synchronously to multiple terminals for data transmission, and the terminals can share data therebetween, which thus profoundly enhances the user experience.
