Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the wireless communication network provides support for both physical and virtual object interactions in metaverse environments, then the service versatility is improved, but the network complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveservice versatilityVSAvoidnetwork complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the quality of service requirements into different categories: first quality of service parameters for physical object interactions and second quality of service parameters for virtual object interactions. This segmentation allows the network to handle different types of traffic with appropriate parameters without overwhelming complexity, as each segment can be managed independently through the enablement entity's decomposition function.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The enablement entity acts as an intermediary between the application service requirements and the network entities. It receives application service requirements, decomposes them into session requirements, derives joint quality of service parameters, and transmits them to network entities. This intermediary function simplifies the network complexity by centralizing the coordination logic in the enablement entity rather than distributing it throughout the entire network.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If the network decomposes application service requirements into session requirements for multiple communication sessions, then the quality of service coordination is improved, but the processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvequality of service coordinationVSAvoidprocessing complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the application service requirement into multiple session requirements, each corresponding to a specific communication session between devices. This segmentation enables independent quality of service parameter derivation for each session, improving coordination reliability while managing processing complexity through structured decomposition rather than monolithic handling.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The enablement entity derives joint quality of service parameters by transforming and combining the decomposed session requirements. This parameter transformation process consolidates multiple session-specific parameters into unified joint parameters that can be efficiently transmitted to network entities, reducing the processing burden compared to managing each session parameter independently.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

3Speed

If the network provides low latency and high data rate transmission for virtual experience services, then the service performance is improved, but the network resource consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedata rateVSAvoidnetwork resource consumption

Core Design Contradiction:

SpeedVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent dynamically adjusts quality of service parameters including data rate and latency based on the derived joint parameters and network conditions. By changing these parameters adaptively rather than maintaining fixed high performance levels, the network can optimize service performance when needed while reducing resource consumption during normal operation, thus resolving the contradiction between speed and resource consumption.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes
