Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If multiple types of patient data are collected comprehensively, then the comprehensiveness of home detection information is improved, but the device complexity and data processing burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the home detection system into three independent modules: data obtaining module (collecting from multiple sources), data fusion module (processing and integrating), and relay transmission module (sending to remote terminal). Each module handles specific tasks independently, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining comprehensive data collection capabilities
Solution Approach 2:
The data fusion module serves as an intermediary between data collection and transmission. It performs integration classification, periodical updates, and compression coding on multimodal heterogeneous data, simplifying the data before transmission and reducing the burden on both collection and transmission stages
2Loss of time
If real-time patient monitoring is implemented, then the timeliness of health information is improved, but the energy consumption and data transmission load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The data fusion module performs periodical updates on collected data, comparing current data with previous data and only transmitting when changes are detected. This periodic monitoring approach ensures timely health information while reducing unnecessary continuous transmission and lowering energy consumption
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter of data transmission from continuous to event-driven based on data changes. The compression coding unit encodes data packets only when parameter changes are detected, reducing transmission load and energy consumption while maintaining real-time monitoring capability
3Measurement precision
If multimodal heterogeneous data is processed and integrated, then the accuracy of patient condition assessment is improved, but the data processing time and computational requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The data fusion module performs preliminary integration classification and compression coding on data before transmission. By preprocessing and organizing multimodal heterogeneous data in advance, the system improves assessment accuracy while reducing the computational burden during actual analysis and transmission phases
