Solution Overview

Problem

Current terminals can only establish a single network data channel at a time, leading to insufficient network transmission capacity for multiple network services, which affects user experience due to the inability to utilize multiple network data channels concurrently.

Innovation Solution

A method and device for allocating network data channels by acquiring performance parameters of each channel and matching them with the requirements of initiated services, allowing multiple services to be allocated to different channels for efficient resource utilization and improved performance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If a terminal establishes only a single network data channel at a time, then the device complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but the network transmission capacity is insufficient to support multiple concurrent network services

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork transmission capacityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments network services and network data channels into multiple independent entities. Multiple network data channels (e.g., Wi-Fi, 4G, 3G, 2G) are established simultaneously, each capable of carrying specific network services. This segmentation allows the terminal to distribute different services across different channels, thereby increasing overall network transmission capacity while maintaining manageable complexity through modular organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements multi-functionality by enabling the terminal to simultaneously establish and manage multiple types of network data channels (Wi-Fi, 4G, 3G, 2G). Each channel type serves as a universal communication pathway that can carry various network services. The system universally supports multiple concurrent channels, allowing flexible allocation based on service requirements and network conditions.

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

2Productivity

If multiple network data channels are established simultaneously, then the network transmission capacity is improved to support multiple services, but the device complexity increases due to channel allocation management

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork transmission capacityVSAvoidease of operation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service through automatic channel allocation mechanisms. The terminal autonomously monitors network conditions, service requirements, and channel performance to dynamically allocate services to appropriate channels without user intervention. The system automatically detects when channels need to be established, maintained, or terminated, and performs load balancing across channels based on current network status, thereby maintaining ease of operation despite multiple concurrent channels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs feedback mechanisms where the terminal continuously monitors the performance and status of each network data channel. Based on this feedback information (signal quality, data rate, channel availability), the system dynamically adjusts service allocation decisions. When network conditions change, the feedback loop triggers reallocation of services to optimize performance, maintaining ease of operation through automated responses to changing conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If all network services are allocated to a single network data channel, then the device complexity is reduced, but the network resources are not sufficiently utilized and user experience is affected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork resource utilizationVSAvoidservice allocation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by allocating different network services to different network data channels based on their specific requirements and the characteristics of each channel. Instead of uniformly distributing all services across all channels, the system tailors the allocation to match local conditions - assigning services to channels that best suit their performance requirements, thereby optimizing network resource utilization while managing allocation complexity through context-aware decisions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
