Relay Device Connection Reason Determination
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In communication scenarios where a remote device communicates with a base station through a relay device, the relay device cannot accurately determine the reason for the remote device's connection establishment or resumption requests, leading to incorrect decisions by the base station, which may result in failed connections.
Innovation Solution
The relay device determines the reason for connection establishment or resumption based on connection-related information received from the remote device, ensuring that the reason carried in the request to the base station accurately reflects the remote device's intended operation, thereby allowing the base station to make informed decisions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If the relay device forwards connection requests from remote devices without determining the reason, then the device complexity is reduced, but the connection reliability deteriorates due to incorrect base station decisions
Solution Approach 1:
The relay device acts as an intermediary that receives connection-related information from the remote device, determines the appropriate reason for connection establishment or resumption, and forwards this information to the base station. This mediator approach allows the relay device to bridge the gap between the remote device's connection needs and the base station's decision-making process, ensuring accurate reason transmission without significantly increasing complexity.
2Reliability
If the relay device accurately determines and transmits the reason for connection requests, then the connection reliability is improved, but the information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The relay device utilizes the connection-related information already provided by the remote device to determine the reason for connection establishment or resumption. Rather than requiring complex external analysis or additional information gathering, the relay device serves itself by processing the incoming information to extract the appropriate reason, thereby improving reliability without proportionally increasing complexity.
