Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If AI/ML methods are applied to cancel channel noise, then communication quality and data transmission reliability are improved, but device complexity increases due to model training and updating requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission reliabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The AI model is divided into a global model managed by the base station and local models deployed at user equipment. The global model provides common noise cancellation functionality while local models handle device-specific channel characteristics. This segmentation reduces the complexity burden on individual devices while maintaining high reliability through collaborative intelligence.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where local models transmit update information to the base station, which then updates the global model. This feedback loop enables continuous improvement of noise cancellation performance across the network while distributing the complexity management between centralized and decentralized components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If a global AI model is used for channel noise cancellation, then adaptability to different channel environments is improved, but loss of time occurs during model updating and synchronization

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to channel environmentsVSAvoidmodel updating time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

By segmenting the model into global and local components, the system can update the global model periodically without requiring real-time synchronization across all devices. Local models continue operating with the latest global model version, reducing the impact of update delays on overall system adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The base station prepares and transmits global model updates in advance during idle periods or low-traffic times. This preliminary action allows user equipment to apply updates before they are needed for critical communications, minimizing the time loss during model synchronization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Manufacturing precision

If local data is used for training the AI model, then manufacturing precision of noise cancellation is improved for specific channels, but loss of information occurs during data transmission and model synchronization

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenoise cancellation precisionVSAvoidinformation loss during synchronization
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments data processing by keeping raw local channel data at user equipment for training purposes while only transmitting processed model update information to the base station. This segmentation minimizes the amount of data transmitted during synchronization, reducing information loss risks while maintaining precision through local data utilization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of transmitting all raw local data during synchronization, the system creates and transmits copies of only the essential model update parameters. This copying approach preserves the necessary information for maintaining noise cancellation precision while significantly reducing the data transmission burden and associated information loss risks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
