Solution Overview

Problem

Current communication technologies face challenges in handling multiple service connections efficiently, leading to rejection of new service connections when a User Equipment is already in a busy state, which can result in delayed service handling and adverse user experience, especially for services with high immediacy requirements.

Innovation Solution

A method and device that determine whether to establish a new service connection based on the type and priority of the service connection request, allowing higher-priority services to override existing connections by including a service type and priority field in the connection request message, enabling flexible resource allocation and timely handling of critical services.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the User Equipment maintains the established service connection and rejects new service connection requests, then the reliability of the existing service connection is improved, but the productivity of handling multiple services deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice connection reliabilityVSAvoidservice handling productivity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the parameter of connection handling by introducing service type identification and priority levels. Instead of a binary connected/not-connected state, the system now evaluates connection requests based on service parameters (type, priority) to determine whether to accept or reject, allowing flexible resource allocation while maintaining reliability for critical services.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent makes the connection acceptance decision dynamic by introducing a determination module that evaluates each new connection request against the existing connection's service type and priority. The system can adaptively switch between maintaining the existing connection and accepting a new connection based on real-time service requirements, rather than following a fixed rejection policy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Adaptability or versatility

If the User Equipment accepts all new service connection requests regardless of current state, then the adaptability of service handling is improved, but the reliability of existing service connections deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice connection adaptabilityVSAvoidservice connection reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces service type and priority parameters to differentiate between various connection requests. This allows the system to adaptively evaluate each request based on its specific characteristics rather than applying a uniform acceptance policy, enabling high adaptability while protecting existing reliable connections when necessary.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The determination module implements a feedback mechanism where the outcome of evaluating a new connection request against the existing connection feeds into the decision-making process. The system continuously monitors service connection states and adjusts acceptance decisions based on this feedback, ensuring that reliability is maintained while adapting to new service requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Device complexity

If the User Equipment immediately rejects new service connection requests when busy, then the device complexity is reduced, but the service performance deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection management complexityVSAvoidservice performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent adds service type and priority parameters to connection requests, transforming the simple binary connection management into a parameter-based evaluation system. While this increases processing complexity slightly, it dramatically improves service performance by enabling intelligent decision-making that prioritizes critical services and maintains overall system reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
