Solution Overview

Problem

Existing long-distance connectivity and throughput issues in networks are plagued by distance, protocol limitations, peering, interference, and security threats, leading to high latency, packet loss, and poor user experience, especially in online systems like thin-clients to cloud-based servers, CRM, and ERP, which can result in system failure and user dissatisfaction.

Innovation Solution

A Global Virtual Network (GVN) utilizing a mesh of devices linked by advanced tunnels, with Advanced Smart Routing (ASR) to optimize data flow through encrypted, disguised tunnels, ensuring secure, reliable, and fast connectivity by continuously monitoring and automatically adjusting communication paths based on real-time and historical network data.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If data is transmitted over long distances through the internet, then global connectivity is achieved, but latency and packet loss increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveglobal connectivityVSAvoidlatency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-establishes multiple communication paths and tunnels between endpoints before data transmission begins. These pre-configured paths include primary and backup routes that are ready for immediate use, eliminating the need for real-time path discovery and reducing transmission latency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The invention introduces intermediate relay nodes and tunnel endpoints that act as mediators in the data transmission path. These intermediaries optimize routing by breaking down long-distance transmissions into shorter segments, each with lower latency, and provide intelligent path selection to minimize overall transmission time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If standard internet connections are used, then global network access is achieved, but security threats and interference increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork accessVSAvoidsecurity threats
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements nested encryption layers and tunneling protocols where data is packaged within multiple protective layers. Each layer provides additional security, and the nested structure allows for progressive authentication and encryption, creating a secure channel through the public internet while isolating the data from external threats.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The invention introduces secure tunnel endpoints and relay nodes as intermediaries between the client and destination. These intermediaries establish authenticated, encrypted connections that mediate all data transmission, blocking direct exposure to internet threats while maintaining global accessibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Stability of the object's composition

If communication paths are fixed and point-to-point, then connection stability is achieved, but adaptability to network conditions deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection stabilityVSAvoidpath optimization
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements dynamic path selection where communication routes are not fixed but continuously adjusted based on real-time network conditions. Multiple pre-configured paths exist with different characteristics, and the system dynamically selects and switches between them based on current latency, bandwidth, and reliability metrics, maintaining both stability and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The invention changes routing parameters dynamically based on network conditions. When network state changes (such as increased latency or packet loss on a primary path), the system automatically adjusts routing parameters to switch to alternative paths with better performance characteristics, maintaining connection stability while adapting to changing conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

4Productivity

If network optimization is implemented, then throughput and speed are improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovethroughputVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements self-service automation where the network optimization system automatically monitors, analyzes, and adjusts communication paths without manual intervention. The system self-configures tunnels, selects optimal routes, and adapts to network changes autonomously, reducing the operational complexity burden on users while maintaining high throughput performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
