Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a mobile terminal test apparatus uses multiple signal processing units to process signals for communication with a mobile terminal by associating multiple component carriers with the signal processing units, then the testing capability and functionality are improved, but the ability to visualize the correspondence between component carriers and signal processing units deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
A display unit is introduced as an intermediary component that visually represents the correspondence between component carriers and signal processing units. The display unit shows a path image with first area displaying component carrier information, second area displaying signal processing unit information, and third area displaying the correspondence between them through line segments, thus resolving the information loss problem while maintaining multiple signal processing units for enhanced testing capability
Solution Approach 2:
The correspondence information is transformed from abstract data relationships into a two-dimensional visual path image displayed on the display unit. This dimensional transformation allows operators to visually perceive the complex many-to-many relationships between component carriers and signal processing units, solving the visualization problem while preserving the multi-unit testing functionality
