Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If multiple PDU session parameters are combined for analytics, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveperformance analytics precisionVSAvoidrequest parameter complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the analytics request into two independent parts: a first request containing RSC information and a second request containing PDU session parameter information. This segmentation allows the network to process and combine these parameters systematically, achieving comprehensive performance analytics (improving measurement precision) while maintaining manageable request structure (controlling device complexity).

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension to the analytics request by separating RSC parameters and PDU session parameters into distinct request dimensions. The network then combines these dimensional information to produce comprehensive analytics, enabling precise multi-parameter measurement without overwhelming complexity in individual requests.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If comprehensive performance analytics are obtained, then adaptability is improved, but loss of time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveURSP rule adaptabilityVSAvoidanalytics obtaining time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables preliminary action by allowing the terminal to send the first request (RSC information) before the second request (PDU session parameter information). The network can start processing and preparing analytics based on the first request, then efficiently combine the second request parameters, thereby reducing total processing time while maintaining comprehensive analytics for URSP rule optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent ensures continuity of useful action by establishing a continuous interaction between terminal and network for analytics collection. The terminal continuously monitors PDU session parameters and sends requests to the network, which continuously processes and provides analytics feedback, enabling real-time URSP rule optimization without significant time loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

3Productivity

If URSP rules are optimized using analytics, then productivity is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveURSP rule optimization efficiencyVSAvoidpolicy control complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the network provides analytics information back to the terminal, enabling the terminal to adjust URSP rules based on actual performance data. This feedback loop improves productivity by allowing data-driven URSP optimization while the structured request-response protocol keeps the complexity manageable through clear information exchange protocols.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
