Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If different real-time mechanisms are used in each network to ensure real-time data transmission within the respective network, then real-time transmission is guaranteed within each network, but real-time data transmission between the two networks cannot be achieved due to protocol incompatibility
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a gateway device as an intermediary between the first network with the first real-time mechanism and the second network with the second real-time mechanism. The gateway translates data packets from the first real-time mechanism protocol to the second real-time mechanism protocol, enabling real-time data transmission between networks with different protocols while maintaining the real-time guarantees of each individual network
Solution Approach 2:
The gateway device changes the protocol parameters of data packets when transmitting between networks. It converts packet structures, timing parameters, and protocol-specific attributes from the first real-time mechanism format to the second real-time mechanism format, allowing compatible transmission across different network standards while preserving real-time characteristics
2Productivity
If network-specific real-time mechanisms are implemented to enable real-time data transmission within each network, then real-time communication is achieved locally, but the mechanisms cannot be used for real-time data transmission between the two networks
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway serves as a specialized intermediary device that handles protocol translation between different real-time mechanisms. By concentrating the translation function in a dedicated gateway, the complexity is isolated to a single component rather than distributed across all network devices, maintaining high communication efficiency while enabling cross-network real-time transmission
3Reliability
If data packets are transmitted according to the real-time mechanism of the source network, then real-time conditions are met in the source network, but the real-time conditions cannot be guaranteed in the target network with a different real-time mechanism
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway performs parameter changes on data packets during transmission, converting timing parameters, priority levels, and protocol attributes from the source network's real-time mechanism to match the target network's real-time mechanism. This ensures that real-time conditions guaranteed in the source network are appropriately translated and maintained in the target network despite protocol differences
