Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wireless communication technologies, such as Wi-Fi Direct, are limited in their ability to autonomously disconnect communication when variable data sizes or multiple transmission instances occur, particularly in scenarios like printing document data or photos, where efficient power management and connection control are necessary.
Innovation Solution
A mobile terminal and printing apparatus system that includes a short-range wireless communication unit, a wireless communication unit, and a disconnection unit, which identifies conditions such as power saving states or distance thresholds to autonomously disconnect wireless communication, ensuring efficient power management and connection control.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If wireless communication is maintained continuously for printing variable data, then data transmission reliability is improved, but power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the wireless communication state based on real-time conditions. The mobile terminal transitions between connected and disconnected states depending on whether printing tasks are active, thereby optimizing power consumption while maintaining reliability when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The mobile terminal autonomously manages the wireless connection state without requiring manual user intervention. The system automatically disconnects when no printing task is detected and automatically reconnects when a printing task is initiated, enabling self-service power management.
2Use of energy by moving object
If wireless communication is disconnected automatically after content is obtained, then power saving is improved, but adaptability to variable data printing scenarios deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously monitoring the printing task state. The mobile terminal detects whether a printing task is active or completed and adjusts the connection state accordingly, enabling adaptive power management that responds to actual usage conditions rather than following fixed disconnection rules.
3Adaptability or versatility
If Wi-Fi Direct connection is maintained for multiple devices, then communication versatility is improved, but connection management complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and manages only the essential connection state (connected or disconnected) rather than tracking complex relationships between multiple devices. By focusing on the core printing task requirement, the system simplifies connection management while maintaining versatility for multiple device scenarios.

AI summary
A mechanism that enables a device to autonomously control disconnection of communication is needed in situations where document data or photos of variable data size are transmitted and received wirelessly. In a wireless communication system, an image forming apparatus and a mobile terminal wirelessly communicate with each other. The image forming apparatus determines whether or not a predetermined condition is met, in a state where the wireless communication with the mobile terminal has been established. In the case of determining that the predetermined condition is met, the image forming apparatus breaks the wireless connection with the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal, upon detecting that the wireless communication has been disconnected, breaks the wireless connection with the image forming apparatus.
