Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional methods are used to compensate for geomagnetic sensing data by initially measuring compensation data during development, then compensation can be performed, but specialized equipment is required and significant compensation errors occur due to environmental differences
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic device performs self-diagnosis and self-compensation by using its own temperature sensors and geomagnetic sensor to collect data and generate compensation information autonomously, eliminating the need for external specialized equipment
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter being measured from static initial compensation data to dynamic temperature-geomagnetic correlation data, allowing the device to adapt to varying environmental conditions by continuously monitoring temperature changes and their corresponding effects on geomagnetic sensor readings
2Reliability
If initial compensation data is measured during development, then compensation can be applied, but significant compensation errors occur due to environmental differences between measurement and actual use
Solution Approach 1:
The system establishes a feedback loop where temperature data from temperature sensors is correlated with geomagnetic sensor data, and this correlation information is used to dynamically adjust and refine compensation values based on actual operating conditions
Solution Approach 2:
The compensation system transitions from static initial compensation values to dynamic compensation that adapts in real-time to environmental changes by continuously monitoring temperature variations and their impact on geomagnetic readings across different heating areas
