Solution Overview

Problem

Current data transmission methods in mobile networks are inefficient due to the exponential increase in data volume, leading to network overload and increased processing burdens on receiving ends, as data is simply propagated from node A to node B without processing.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a data processing capability within mobile network nodes and terminals, where data is processed and transformed into a more manageable form before transmission, reducing the amount of data transmitted and alleviating processing burdens on receiving ends.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If data is simply propagated from node A to node B without processing, then data transmission is straightforward and fast, but the amount of data transmitted increases significantly with explosive increase in data volume, overburdening the network

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission speedVSAvoidamount of data transmitted
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by performing data processing at intermediate network nodes before data reaches the receiving end. The network node processes data (e.g., filtering, compression, transformation) in advance, so that when data is transmitted to the destination, it is already in a reduced or optimized form. This resolves the contradiction by reducing the quantity of data transmitted without significantly impacting transmission speed, as processing occurs at intermediate nodes rather than blocking the entire transmission path.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary approach by positioning data processing capabilities at intermediate network nodes between the sender and receiver. These intermediate nodes act as mediators that transform raw data into processed data before it reaches the destination. This intermediary processing layer reduces the overall data volume transmitted through the network while maintaining efficient data flow, resolving the contradiction between transmission speed and data quantity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Device complexity

If data is simply propagated from node A to node B without processing, then network infrastructure remains simple, but the receiving end has to process a growing amount of data accordingly, increasing the risk of overburdening the receiving end

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork infrastructure complexityVSAvoidamount of data to be processed at receiving end
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the data processing function across multiple network nodes rather than concentrating it all at the receiving end. The processing workload is segmented and distributed to intermediate nodes, which handle portions of the data processing task. This segmentation reduces the data processing burden on the receiving end while maintaining relatively simple individual node implementations, resolving the contradiction between infrastructure complexity and processing load at the receiving end.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses preliminary action by performing data processing at intermediate network nodes before data reaches the receiving end. This advance processing reduces the quantity of data that the receiving end must handle, thereby reducing the risk of overburdening the receiving end. The processing is done preliminarily in the network infrastructure, so the receiving end only deals with processed and reduced data, resolving the contradiction between infrastructure simplicity and receiving end processing burden.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Quantity of substance

If data processing is implemented at network nodes, then the amount of data transmitted is reduced and network load is decreased, but the device complexity and processing requirements at network nodes increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveamount of data transmittedVSAvoiddata processing capability at network nodes
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial action by implementing data processing capabilities at network nodes selectively and partially, rather than requiring full processing at every node. The processing functionality is deployed where most beneficial, handling only the necessary processing to reduce data volume significantly. This partial implementation approach reduces the overall complexity burden on network infrastructure while still achieving substantial data reduction, resolving the contradiction between data quantity reduction and device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
