Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If Wi-Fi technology is used for private networks, then ease of deployment is improved, but reliability and adaptability to varying user needs deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic network slicing that allows the private wireless network to adapt its configuration in real-time based on user needs and application requirements. The network can dynamically allocate resources, adjust parameters, and reconfigure slices to maintain reliability while remaining easy to deploy using standardized MulteFire technology.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes software-defined radio (SDR) to enable dynamic parameter changes in the wireless network. Through SDR, the network can modify transmission parameters, frequency settings, and configuration options without physical reconfiguration, thereby maintaining deployment simplicity while achieving high reliability through adaptive parameter optimization.
2Ease of manufacture
If Wi-Fi technology is used for private networks, then ease of deployment is improved, but adaptability to diverse user needs deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the wireless network into multiple independent network slices, each optimized for specific applications or user groups. This segmentation allows the network to simultaneously support diverse user needs (video streaming, IoT, voice calls) with different requirements while maintaining a single unified deployment structure based on MulteFire technology.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal private wireless network platform using MulteFire that can serve multiple functions and user types through network slicing. The same physical infrastructure can universally support various applications (video conferencing, IoT sensors, voice calls) by dynamically configuring slices, thereby achieving both ease of deployment and high adaptability.
3Reliability
If public wireless networks are used for data-intensive applications, then connectivity availability is improved, but resource utilization efficiency and latency deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts critical data-intensive traffic from the congested public wireless network and routes it through dedicated private network slices. By taking out video streaming and other bandwidth-intensive applications from the shared public infrastructure, the system improves resource utilization efficiency and reduces latency while maintaining connectivity availability through the private MulteFire network.
4Reliability
If public wireless networks are used for data-intensive applications, then connectivity availability is improved, but latency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent establishes dedicated network slices in advance for data-intensive applications, pre-configuring the necessary resources and pathways. By performing preliminary setup of video streaming slices and other bandwidth-intensive services, the network eliminates setup delays and reduces latency when applications are activated, while maintaining connectivity availability through the dedicated private infrastructure.
