Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If a normal bidirectional monitoring system is used to reduce engineering installation, then the system can be deployed without antennas in each room, but the system has poor fading depth resistance, poor anti-interference ability, and high requirements for installation conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveengineering installationVSAvoidfading depth resistance and anti-interference ability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system is divided into two parts: a background device with antenna deployed in a fixed location (e.g., elevator shaft) and monitoring devices distributed throughout the building. This segmentation allows the antenna to be strategically positioned for optimal signal coverage while monitoring devices can be installed without individual antennas, reducing installation complexity while maintaining reliability through the background device's robust antenna system

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The background device acts as an intermediary between the monitoring devices and the external monitoring system. It receives signals from multiple monitoring devices and relays them to the monitoring center, providing a centralized communication hub that improves fading depth resistance and anti-interference ability through its dedicated antenna and signal processing capabilities

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If a normal bidirectional monitoring system transmits data between background device and monitoring device, then bidirectional communication is achieved, but data transmission is prone to interference affecting monitoring and first-aid operations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebidirectional communicationVSAvoiddata transmission stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically switches between different frequency bands for data transmission. When interference is detected on one frequency band, the system automatically transitions to another frequency band, ensuring continuous and stable communication. This dynamic adaptation maintains bidirectional communication reliability under varying interference conditions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the frequency band parameter to avoid interference. By having multiple frequency bands available and switching between them based on signal quality, the system maintains stable data transmission despite interference on any single frequency band, ensuring reliable monitoring and first-aid operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If multiple frequency bands are used for signal transmission, then anti-interference ability and timeliness are improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanti-interference abilityVSAvoidfrequency band selection and mixing components
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Multiple frequency band processing functions (mixing, selection, switching) are merged into integrated circuit modules within the background device. This consolidation reduces the overall device complexity by eliminating the need for separate discrete components for each function, while still maintaining the capability to handle multiple frequency bands for improved anti-interference ability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

This disclosure provides a monitoring device, a wireless communication device, and a control method. The monitoring device includes a control system assembly, a digital-analog mixing assembly, a frequency band selection assembly, and an antenna. The control system assembly is respectively connected with the digital-analog mixing assembly and the frequency band selection assembly; one end of the frequency band selection assembly is connected with the digital-analog mixing assembly through a channel of designated frequency band, and the other end of the frequency band selection assembly is connected with the antenna. The monitoring device can switch from a currently used frequency band to other frequency bands for signal transmission or use other frequency bands for simultaneous signal transmission, according to a signal transmission status of the currently used frequency band. Thus, the anti-interference ability of the monitoring device can be improved to reduce the error rate of signal transmission.
