Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If AI technology is deployed on a base station to assist in handover prediction and decision-making, then the operational efficiency and service quality can be improved, but the ability to collect and feedback measurement quantities between network nodes is insufficient, resulting in inability to effectively correct and optimize the AI model

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperational efficiencyVSAvoidmeasurement quantity feedback
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the first network node requests measurement results from the second network node and uses these results to correct and optimize the AI model. The measurement request message includes measurement requirements, and the measurement result message returns the actual measurement data, enabling continuous feedback loop for AI model optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces measurement result messages as intermediaries to transfer measurement quantities between network nodes. These messages serve as the bridge that enables information exchange, allowing the first network node to obtain measurement data from the second network node for AI model correction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If measurement requests are sent to collect data from second network node, then the AI model can be optimized, but the system complexity increases due to additional message protocols

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveAI model optimizationVSAvoidmessage protocol complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent designs measurement request and measurement result messages that can be used universally for different AI optimization scenarios. These messages serve multiple purposes: collecting measurement data, verifying AI predictions, and optimizing handover decisions, thereby reducing the need for separate specialized protocols.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent includes measurement requirements in the measurement request message beforehand, specifying what measurements need to be performed. This preliminary action allows the second network node to prepare and execute the measurements efficiently, reducing the back-and-forth communication complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
