Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If network signal coverage is divided into sub-regions for node distribution management, then processing efficiency and resource allocation speed are improved, but network management system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The network signal coverage area is divided into multiple sub-regions, and network nodes are managed and allocated resources based on their location within specific sub-regions. This segmentation approach reduces the scope of processing for each management entity, improving processing efficiency while distributing system complexity across multiple manageable units.
2Quantity of substance
If dynamic network programming and fine resource allocation are implemented, then bandwidth utilization is improved, but network management complexity and processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements fine-grained resource allocation by managing network resources at the sub-region level rather than globally. Each sub-region can have customized resource allocation policies tailored to local traffic patterns and requirements, improving bandwidth utilization while keeping management complexity localized and manageable.
3Reliability
If neighbor node determination and connectivity management are performed, then network communication reliability is improved, but processing time and computational load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent pre-determines neighbor node relationships and connectivity information within sub-regions before actual communication needs arise. By performing this analysis in advance at the sub-region level, the system establishes reliable communication paths while reducing processing time when actual data transmission is required.
