Network Node ID Assignment via N-Carry Operations
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In flexible multi-hop communication systems, manual configuration of network node IDs is impractical, and existing dynamic configuration methods require complex routing algorithms and tables, making it difficult to manage node IDs and routing information efficiently, especially when nodes join or leave the network.
Innovation Solution
A communication system uses a logical tree-based topology where each child node is assigned an ID based on its parent node, with IDs generated through operations like 2's carry or N-carry, allowing nodes to determine forwarding paths without maintaining extensive routing tables, and enabling efficient data forwarding and node ID management.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If dynamic configuration with random ID assignment is used, then node ID acquisition becomes automatic and flexible, but complex routing algorithms and routing tables are required to manage routing information
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges node ID assignment with routing information by encoding parent node identifiers within child node IDs using N-carry operations. This combination eliminates the need for separate routing tables, as the routing information is embedded directly in the node identifiers themselves.
Solution Approach 2:
Each node automatically determines its routing path by performing N-carry operations on its own ID and the destination ID. Nodes self-configure their routing behavior without requiring external routing tables or complex centralized routing algorithms, enabling autonomous routing decisions.
2Productivity
If routing tables are maintained to enable efficient packet forwarding, then data transmission efficiency is improved, but the complexity of managing routing information increases when nodes join or leave the network
Solution Approach 1:
Routing information is merged into node identifiers through N-carry encoding. When nodes join or leave, only their identifiers need to be updated, and this information is automatically propagated through the hierarchy, eliminating the need to manually update separate routing tables.
Solution Approach 2:
The routing structure dynamically adapts to network changes through hierarchical N-carry operations. When a node joins or leaves, the changes are automatically reflected in the encoded identifiers of affected nodes, enabling dynamic routing adjustment without manual intervention or complex routing table updates.
3Device complexity
If hierarchical tree topology with N-carry ID assignment is used, then routing information is embedded in node IDs simplifying management, but ID generation requires computational operations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces complex mechanical routing table lookups with mathematical N-carry operations on node identifiers. This substitution uses arithmetic computations instead of table-based routing, reducing memory access requirements and simplifying the routing decision process.
