Solution Overview

Problem

Current IoT router systems are inefficient in recognizing apparatuses due to the need to try multiple communication parameters sequentially, leading to time-consuming connections.

Innovation Solution

A method and device that utilize a combined sequence table to prioritize communication parameters based on historical occurrence numbers, allowing for sequential message sending according to priority levels to improve recognition efficiency and reduce recognition time.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the router tries all communication parameters sequentially to establish connection, then the connection can be established, but the recognition time is long and efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection establishmentVSAvoidrecognition time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-collects and stores historical occurrence numbers of communication parameters in a combined sequence table before actual connection attempts. This preliminary data preparation allows the router to prioritize parameters with higher historical success rates, avoiding random or sequential trial-and-error approaches during actual device recognition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the order of communication parameter attempts based on historical occurrence numbers. Instead of using a fixed sequential order or random selection, the parameters are dynamically reordered according to their historical performance data, optimizing the probability of successful connection while reducing recognition time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If the router tries multiple communication parameter combinations, then the correct combination can be found, but the recognition process is inefficient and time consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecorrect combination detectionVSAvoidrecognition efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

Historical occurrence numbers are pre-calculated and stored in the combined sequence table, providing a ready-to-use prioritization guide for communication parameter attempts. This eliminates the need for real-time analysis during device recognition, improving processing speed while maintaining detection accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses historical feedback data (occurrence numbers from previous successful connections) to guide future connection attempts. By analyzing past connection outcomes and storing this feedback in the combined sequence table, the system continuously improves its parameter selection strategy, achieving both high reliability and efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
