Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic equipment designs face challenges in optimizing internal space usage due to the separate arrangement of signal transceiver components and functional devices, leading to increased size and inefficient use of space.
Innovation Solution
The solution involves arranging a functional component between the transmission and reception components of a signal transceiver, with these components sequentially aligned in a specific direction to reduce overall size by utilizing the gap space between them, thereby optimizing internal space and facilitating a lighter, thinner design.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If transmission and reception components are arranged separately from functional devices, then signal interference is avoided, but the overall device size increases and internal space utilization becomes inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The functional device is nested within the gap space between the transmission component and reception component. Specifically, the functional device is positioned in the space between these two components along the thickness direction, allowing it to utilize the existing gap rather than requiring additional separate space. This nesting approach reduces overall device volume while maintaining signal interference avoidance through proper spatial separation.
Solution Approach 2:
The arrangement transitions from planar separation to three-dimensional spatial utilization. By arranging the transmission component, functional device, and reception component along the thickness direction (z-axis) rather than only in the plane, the patent efficiently uses the third dimension to reduce device footprint while maintaining adequate separation distances for signal interference prevention.
2Length of stationary object
If transmission and reception components are placed close together to reduce size, then device thickness is reduced, but signal interference between transmitted and received signals increases
Solution Approach 1:
The functional device serves as an intermediary element positioned between the transmission component and reception component. This intermediary placement allows the system to maintain a predetermined distance between transmission and reception components for signal interference avoidance, while the functional device utilizes this intermediate space productively. The intermediary positioning ensures that signal interference is prevented while achieving compact device thickness.
