Segmented Data Transmission for Mobile Devices
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mobile data transmission methods are inefficient for uploading large files and real-time streaming, particularly in areas without Wi-Fi coverage and due to insufficient cellular network bandwidth, often requiring dedicated devices that need frequent upgrades and can cause excessive cellular radiation.
Innovation Solution
Segmenting content from a master device into multiple data-streams, transmitting these streams to slave devices, and uploading them to a server, which assembles the content without the need for dedicated devices, allowing for efficient data transmission using common devices like smartphones and laptops, and enabling 3D, panoramic, and multimedia content creation without specialized equipment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If dedicated devices are used for data transmission, then transmission reliability is improved, but device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables common computerized devices (smartphones, laptops) to perform multiple functions including content creation, segmentation, and transmission. The system allows these universal devices to function as both master devices (segmenting content) and slave devices (receiving and uploading data-streams), eliminating the need for dedicated single-function devices while maintaining transmission reliability through coordinated multi-device operation
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments content into multiple data-streams that can be transmitted through multiple devices simultaneously. This segmentation approach distributes the transmission load across common devices, achieving reliable data transmission without requiring any single device to be overly complex or dedicated
2Productivity
If single device uploads data via cellular network, then device simplicity is maintained, but transmission speed and bandwidth are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides content into multiple data-streams that are uploaded simultaneously through multiple devices via cellular networks. This segmentation enables parallel transmission, significantly increasing overall upload speed and bandwidth utilization while keeping individual device operations simple
Solution Approach 2:
The patent combines the upload capabilities of multiple devices to achieve high-speed data transmission. By merging the bandwidth resources of multiple slave devices, the system overcomes the limitations of single-device cellular uploads without requiring any single device to be complex
3Reliability
If multiple devices upload data simultaneously, then network resilience is improved, but cellular radiation exposure increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the upload task across multiple devices, improving network resilience through distributed transmission. However, this inherently increases cellular radiation exposure as multiple devices transmit simultaneously, representing a trade-off that the system must manage through careful device selection and transmission coordination
