Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Use of energy by moving object
If communication systems operate without energy consumption monitoring, then communication simplicity is maintained, but energy management capability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an energy consumption information management function as an intermediary component that mediates between communication operations and energy management. This function receives energy consumption information from gNBs, determines compliance with energy conditions, and communicates results back to sources, enabling energy management without requiring complex modifications to existing communication infrastructure.
2Loss of energy
If energy consumption conditions are monitored and enforced, then energy efficiency is improved, but communication protocol complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where energy consumption information is collected from gNBs, evaluated against predefined energy conditions, and results are communicated back to the information source. This feedback loop enables energy efficiency improvement through systematic monitoring and compliance verification without requiring fundamental protocol changes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent establishes energy consumption conditions and thresholds in advance before communication operations begin. By pre-defining energy conditions, the system can efficiently evaluate compliance without performing complex real-time calculations during communication operations, thus improving energy efficiency while minimizing protocol complexity.
3Measurement precision
If comprehensive energy information is collected and transmitted, then energy management accuracy is improved, but network overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential energy consumption information needed for compliance determination from comprehensive gNB measurements. By selecting and transmitting only relevant energy data rather than all available measurements, the system achieves accurate energy management while minimizing network overhead and data transmission requirements.
