Packet Transmission System Dynamic Integration for Delay Reduction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing packet transmission systems experience transmission delays and complex management due to packet integration, as packets are forced to wait in queues and require proper setting of minimum integration numbers and timeout values based on network conditions.
Innovation Solution
A packet transmission system that includes a packet extraction unit to search and extract packets by destination, and an encapsulation unit to combine packets into a single packet for transmission, reducing delays and simplifying management by automatically setting the number of packets to integrate based on network capacity.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If packet integration is performed by accumulating packets in a queue and waiting for timeout or minimum integration number, then network bandwidth utilization is improved, but transmission delay increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent dynamically adjusts the integration behavior based on real-time queue status and network conditions. Instead of fixed timeout values or minimum integration numbers, the system adaptively determines when to integrate packets, balancing bandwidth utilization with delay constraints by monitoring queue depth and adjusting integration timing accordingly
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the integration parameters from static (fixed timeout, fixed minimum number) to dynamic values that adjust based on current network conditions and queue state, allowing the system to optimize the trade-off between bandwidth utilization and transmission delay by modifying integration thresholds adaptively
2Ease of operation
If packet integration uses fixed minimum integration number and timeout value, then system management is simplified, but adaptability to different network conditions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by enabling the packet integration system to automatically adjust its own parameters based on monitored network conditions. The system autonomously determines optimal integration timing and thresholds without requiring manual configuration or external control, adapting to varying network states while maintaining operational simplicity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms that continuously monitor network conditions, queue depth, and transmission patterns, using this information to dynamically adjust integration parameters. This closed-loop approach enables the system to adapt to changing network conditions while maintaining simple operation through automatic parameter tuning

AI summary
Disclosed are a packet transmission apparatus and so on that can suppress transmission delays caused by packet integrations and that can perform the transmissions over a broad band. The packet transmission apparatus includes: a packet extraction means that searches for and extracts, from a buffer for sorting and accumulating packets for respective destinations, the packets for the respective destinations and that, if a plurality of packets addressed to an identical destination have been accumulated in the buffer, extracts the plurality of packets from the buffer; and an encapsulation means that encapsulates the packets, which have been extracted by the packet extraction means, into a single packet for each destination.
