Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If data is transmitted only from movable objects suitable for the collection condition, then transmission reliability is improved, but data completeness deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission reliabilityVSAvoiddata completeness
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the transmission timing adaptable to varying communication conditions. The plan generating unit dynamically determines optimal transmission timings based on real-time channel state information, allowing the system to adjust transmission behavior according to changing conditions rather than using fixed rules. This resolves the contradiction by enabling reliable transmission while capturing comprehensive data across different mobility scenarios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of transmission timing from a static condition-based rule to a dynamic optimized schedule. By generating transmission plans that specify precise timing based on channel state predictions, the system transforms the transmission parameter to achieve both reliability (through optimal timing selection) and completeness (by ensuring all necessary data is transmitted regardless of mobility condition).

2Measurement precision

If three-dimensional configuration view data is frequently acquired and transmitted, then view accuracy is improved, but communication efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveview accuracyVSAvoidcommunication efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-generating transmission plans based on predicted channel states and data priorities before actual transmission occurs. The plan generating unit creates optimized transmission schedules in advance, identifying the best transmission timings based on expected communication conditions. This allows high-accuracy data to be transmitted efficiently without unnecessary frequent transmissions, as the system already knows the optimal timing from preliminary planning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback from channel state information to continuously refine transmission timing decisions. The plan generating unit monitors communication channel conditions and adjusts transmission plans accordingly, ensuring that high-accuracy three-dimensional configuration view data is transmitted at times when channel conditions are favorable, thus maintaining view accuracy while improving communication efficiency through feedback-driven optimization.

AI summary

The present technology relates to a communication management system, a communication management method, a movable object, and a management apparatus that allow efficient transmission of three-dimensional configuration view data from a movable object. A plan generating unit that generates, on the basis of a state of a transmission channel on a movement route of a movable object and a priority of three-dimensional configuration view data to be used for generating a three-dimensional configuration view, a plan of a transmission timing that is a spatial timing at which the movable object transmits the three-dimensional configuration view data on the transmission channel. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a communication management system that updates the three-dimensional configuration view by using the three-dimensional configuration view data transmitted from the movable object.
