Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing control systems for monitoring and managing wireless communication terminals lack the ability to dynamically adjust settings based on identification information and sensing data, particularly in varying security levels and abnormal situations, leading to inefficiencies in signal transmission and resource management.
Innovation Solution
A method and gateway system that receives identification information and sensing data to control the settings of wireless communication terminals, including signal transmission levels and sensor power, based on the security level of the area, management level of the owner, and occurrence of abnormal situations, with the capability to adjust settings differently depending on the type and location of the terminal.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If control systems use fixed settings for wireless communication terminals, then device complexity is reduced, but communication efficiency and security management deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway dynamically adjusts transmission power and sensor activation based on real-time sensing data and identification information, transforming fixed settings into adaptive control. The system modifies communication parameters according to environmental conditions, security levels, and terminal types without requiring complex manual configuration.
Solution Approach 2:
The wireless communication terminal automatically receives and applies control settings from the gateway based on its identification information and the sensed environment. The terminal self-adjusts its transmission power and sensor operations without human intervention, improving efficiency while keeping the control logic centralized in the gateway.
2Measurement precision
If the gateway continuously monitors all terminals with high power, then detection precision is improved, but energy consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway applies partial monitoring action by adjusting sensor power and transmission power based on actual needs. High-power monitoring is applied only when abnormal situations are detected or when required by security level, while normal conditions use reduced power settings, optimizing the balance between detection precision and energy consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes operational parameters (transmission power, sensor power) based on security levels and environmental conditions. The gateway receives sensing data and adjusts communication parameters dynamically, allowing high detection precision when needed while reducing energy consumption during normal operations.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the gateway adjusts settings for all terminals uniformly, then ease of operation is improved, but adaptability to different security levels and situations deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway applies different control settings to different terminals based on their identification information and local environmental conditions. Each terminal receives customized parameters (transmission power, sensor activation) appropriate to its specific security level and situation, rather than uniform settings for all terminals.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary classification of terminals by security level and situation type before applying specific control settings. The gateway pre-determines appropriate parameter ranges based on identification information, making the subsequent adaptive adjustment straightforward and maintaining ease of operation while achieving high adaptability.
4Reliability
If signal transmission power is increased for all terminals, then communication reliability is improved, but resource management and security control deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway changes transmission power parameters based on security levels and communication requirements. High transmission power is applied only when reliability is critical (e.g., high security levels, abnormal situations), while normal communications use lower power settings, optimizing the balance between reliability and resource management.
Solution Approach 2:
Transmission power is dynamically adjusted based on real-time conditions rather than being fixed at high levels. The gateway receives sensing data and identification information to determine appropriate power levels, ensuring communication reliability when needed while minimizing energy loss during routine operations.
