Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If signaling radio bearer (SRB) or data radio bearer (DRB) transmission is used, then existing communication protocols are maintained, but transmission of computing data is limited due to maximum data capacity and quality of service constraints

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomputing data transmission capabilityVSAvoiddata transmission capacity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a dynamic radio bearer type indication mechanism that allows the system to adaptively select between SRB, DRB, or new computing data bearer types based on real-time transmission requirements. This dynamic adaptation enables the system to overcome the fixed capacity limitations of traditional bearers when transmitting computing data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the bearer type parameter from a fixed selection (SRB or DRB only) to a flexible parameter that can be dynamically set based on data characteristics. By modifying the radio bearer configuration parameters to include computing data bearer types with different capacity and QoS settings, the system can accommodate varying computing data transmission needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If SRB or DRB transmission is used, then existing network infrastructure is utilized, but quality of service levels are insufficient for computing data requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of service levelVSAvoidcomputing data support
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the radio bearer functionality into distinct types: control plane bearers (SRB), user plane bearers (DRB), and computing data bearers. This segmentation allows each bearer type to be optimized for its specific function, with computing data bearers providing dedicated QoS parameters and reliability settings tailored to computing data requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal radio bearer framework that can handle multiple data types through different bearer types. The new computing data bearer type maintains compatibility with existing SRB and DRB structures while adding specialized capabilities for computing data, making the system universally applicable to various data transmission scenarios.

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

3Productivity

If traditional SRB or DRB transmission is used, then protocol compatibility is maintained, but transmission efficiency and delays are suboptimal for computing data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoidcommunication delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts computing data transmission from the general-purpose DRB framework and creates a specialized computing data bearer type. This extraction allows the system to remove unnecessary protocol overhead and QoS handling steps that are inherent in traditional DRB transmission, thereby reducing delay and improving efficiency for computing data specifically.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

This application provides a computing data transmission method and apparatus, to transmit computing data such as a computing model. The method includes: A terminal device sends a first message to an access network device, where the first message requests the access network device to set up a first radio bearer, and the first radio bearer carries computing data. The terminal device receives a second message sent by the access network device, and sets up the first radio bearer based on radio bearer configuration information carried in the second message.
