Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If integrated sensing and communication systems are implemented, then data processing efficiency and resource management are enhanced, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines sensing functionality and communication functionality into a single integrated system. The sensing module and communication module share common hardware resources including transceivers, processors, and memory, allowing simultaneous sensing and communication operations while reducing overall system complexity through resource consolidation.
Solution Approach 2:
The transceiver is designed to perform multiple functions: it can transmit and receive communication signals while also functioning as a sensing element to detect environmental parameters. The processor handles both communication protocol management and sensing data processing, making the device versatile and reducing the need for separate dedicated components.
2Reliability
If sensing data is shared between devices, then resource allocation based on event validity is improved, but communication overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential event validity information from the complete sensing data set. Instead of transmitting all raw sensing data between devices, the system identifies and transmits only the critical validity indicators that are necessary for resource allocation decisions, reducing communication overhead while maintaining allocation reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The processor acts as an intermediary that receives raw sensing data, processes it to determine event validity, and then transmits only the validated event information to other devices. This intermediary processing step filters out unnecessary data before transmission, reducing communication overhead while ensuring that only reliable information is shared.
