Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If each piece of information is individually coded with encoding length a, then M pieces of information require a×M bits to be transmitted, but this results in large overhead and waste of air interface resources
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple individual information pieces into a single joint encoding process. Instead of encoding each of the M information pieces separately with encoding length a (total a×M bits), the patent applies joint encoding to represent all M pieces together using only b bits where b < a×M. This combining approach reduces the total encoding length and saves air interface resources while maintaining complete information transmission.
2Loss of substance
If joint encoding is applied to reduce encoding length, then air interface resources are saved, but the encoding complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the joint encoding process into manageable parts. It divides M information pieces into groups and applies encoding separately to each group, then combines the results. This segmentation reduces the overall encoding complexity compared to encoding all M pieces simultaneously in one complex operation, while still achieving resource savings through joint encoding within each group.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces dynamic adjustment mechanisms in the encoding process. It dynamically determines the encoding length b based on the actual content and characteristics of the M information pieces, rather than using a fixed encoding scheme. This dynamic approach optimizes the balance between encoding complexity and resource savings, allowing the system to adapt to different information patterns.
