Solution Overview
Problem
Existing telecommunication networks face challenges in efficiently collecting, storing, and inquiring performance data across different specialized networks, leading to difficulties in unified performance management.
Innovation Solution
A network management system that uses a performance management information model to describe and collect performance data, instantiating this model for specific networks to obtain instances, and then collects and persists data using network element type, positioning, measurement type, and counter information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If separate performance management systems are established for different specialized telecommunication networks, then each network can be managed according to its specific requirements, but it becomes difficult to efficiently and collectively collect, store and inquire performance data across multiple networks
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal performance management information model that can be applied across different specialized telecommunication networks (fixed network, mobile network, etc.). The model defines standardized data structures, collection methods, storage formats, and inquiry mechanisms that work universally across network types, eliminating the need for separate management systems while maintaining adaptability through configuration rather than structural changes.
2Productivity
If a unified performance management system is implemented across all specialized telecommunication networks, then efficient collective collection, storage and inquiry of performance data can be achieved, but it becomes difficult to accommodate the specific requirements of different network types
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements local quality by allowing the universal performance management information model to be customized for specific network types through configuration parameters and instance-specific adaptations. Each specialized network (fixed, mobile, etc.) can define its own data collection priorities, storage configurations, and inquiry patterns while still using the same underlying model structure, thus maintaining both unity and adaptability.
3Reliability
If performance data from multiple specialized networks are managed separately, then each network's specific data requirements can be met, but the system lacks portability and reusability across different network contexts
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a reusable performance management information model that can be copied and instantiated for different specialized networks. The model serves as a template that maintains consistent data structures and management logic, ensuring reliability through standardization while enabling portability through replication across different network contexts without requiring custom development for each network type.
