Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data transmission methods in Peer-to-Peer networks face inefficiencies due to uneven bandwidth and power supply types among devices, leading to increased transmission loads and reduced data sharing effectiveness.

Innovation Solution

A data transmission apparatus and method that divides data into segments, determines a transmission order based on bandwidth and power supply type, and allows segments to be exchanged among multiple data reception apparatuses, reducing transmission load and optimizing data sharing by adjusting the timing of segment transmission and reception.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If data is transmitted using conventional P2P methods without considering device capabilities, then data sharing can occur between peers, but transmission load becomes uneven and efficiency decreases due to varying bandwidth and power supply types

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission efficiencyVSAvoidtransmission load
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by determining transmission orders tailored to each receiving device's specific characteristics (bandwidth and power supply type). Each device receives data segments in an order optimized for its local capabilities, rather than using a uniform transmission approach for all peers. This resolves the contradiction by adapting transmission quality to local device conditions, improving efficiency while reducing unnecessary energy consumption on devices with limited capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Speed

If data segments are transmitted simultaneously to all peers, then data sharing speed increases, but devices with limited bandwidth or power supply experience excessive load and transmission failures

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata sharing speedVSAvoidtransmission success rate
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by determining the transmission order of data segments before actual transmission based on each receiving device's capabilities. The transmitting device预先 (in advance) analyzes bandwidth and power supply type information, then establishes an optimized transmission sequence. This preliminary planning ensures that data is sent at speeds appropriate for each device, maintaining high overall sharing speed while preventing transmission failures on constrained devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies dynamics by making the transmission order adaptive and device-specific rather than static and uniform. The system dynamically adjusts the transmission sequence based on real-time or pre-assessed device capabilities (bandwidth and power supply type). This dynamic approach allows the system to optimize for speed on capable devices while ensuring reliability on constrained devices, resolving the contradiction between speed and reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If all data segments are transmitted to each peer regardless of capability, then complete data sharing is achieved, but devices with limited resources experience excessive power consumption and processing load

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata sharing completenessVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by modifying the transmission parameters (transmission order, timing, and pacing) based on the receiving device's capabilities. Instead of changing the data content itself, the system changes how the data is transmitted - adjusting the sequence and timing of segments to match each device's bandwidth and power supply characteristics. This ensures complete data sharing is achieved while adapting energy consumption to each device's resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies self-service by enabling each receiving device to effectively receive and process data segments at its own pace and capability level. The transmission order is designed so that each device can autonomously handle the segments it receives without being overwhelmed, with the transmitting device providing segments in an order that allows receiving devices to process them efficiently given their own resource constraints.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
