Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods for selecting a network data analytics function (NWDAF) lack a clear generation standard for accuracy information, leading to inappropriate service selection by consumers due to varying evaluation criteria and accuracy levels.

Innovation Solution

A method for determining evaluation information using preset parameters such as classification error cost matrices and class weights to generate evaluation information, enabling consumers to select an appropriate NWDAF based on specific criteria.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If accuracy information is provided without generation standards, then consumers can access accuracy data, but consumers cannot select appropriate NWDAF services due to unknown evaluation criteria

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy information completenessVSAvoidservice selection capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an evaluation information generation standard as an intermediary between the accuracy information provider (NWDAF) and the consumer. This standard acts as a mediator that translates internal evaluation criteria into externally understandable metrics, enabling consumers to select appropriate services without direct access to proprietary evaluation methodologies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms abstract evaluation criteria into concrete, measurable parameters that can be communicated to consumers. By changing the representation of evaluation information from internal proprietary metrics to standardized external parameters, the system enables informed service selection while maintaining the integrity of the original evaluation process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If different consumers use different evaluation criteria, then each consumer can evaluate services according to their needs, but consumers cannot make informed selections due to lack of standardized evaluation information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevaluation criteria flexibilityVSAvoidservice evaluation accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal evaluation information framework that can serve multiple consumers with different needs. The generation standard provides a common language and set of metrics that work across different consumer requirements, enabling both standardized comparison and flexible adaptation to specific use cases.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments evaluation information into standardized components that can be independently analyzed and compared. By breaking down complex evaluation criteria into discrete, measurable parameters, consumers can selectively focus on the segments most relevant to their specific needs while maintaining overall evaluation rigor.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Quantity of substance

If consumers subscribe to analytics accuracy information, then they can obtain accuracy data, but they cannot determine appropriate NWDAF selection due to missing generation standard information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy information availabilityVSAvoidservice selection reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by establishing evaluation information generation standards before consumers perform service selection. This advance preparation ensures that when consumers subscribe to accuracy information, the data is already structured and standardized for reliable interpretation, eliminating the need for post-subscription analysis of evaluation methodologies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
