Solution Overview

Problem

Current electronic devices lack an effective display method for service identifiers in 5G NSA communication systems, particularly for downlink data services, which affects the accuracy and comprehensiveness of communication status representation.

Innovation Solution

The electronic device sends a query request for resource allocation information to network devices, receives and processes this information to determine a target service identifier, and displays it intuitively, allowing for accurate representation of the communication status by distinguishing between different network architectures and channel quality indicators.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If the electronic device displays service identifier without querying resource allocation information from network device, then the display process is simple and fast, but the accuracy and comprehensiveness of communication status representation is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of communication status representationVSAvoidcomplexity of display control process
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The electronic device performs preliminary action by proactively querying resource allocation information from the network device before displaying the service identifier. This preliminary data collection enables accurate representation of communication status without adding complexity to the display execution itself, as the information is already prepared in advance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback by continuously querying resource allocation information from the network device and using this feedback information to update the displayed service identifier. This ensures the display accurately reflects the current communication status, resolving the contradiction between accuracy and process complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Loss of information

If the electronic device queries resource allocation information from network device to determine service identifier, then the comprehensiveness of communication status display is improved, but the time consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of communication status informationVSAvoidtime consumption for information acquisition
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The electronic device employs periodic action by querying resource allocation information at specific intervals or triggered by certain events (such as network state changes) rather than continuously. This periodic approach ensures comprehensive information acquisition while minimizing time consumption compared to continuous querying.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements self-service by having the electronic device autonomously determine when and how to query resource allocation information based on its own state and requirements. This self-driven approach reduces unnecessary queries and time consumption while maintaining information completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Measurement precision

If the electronic device displays detailed resource allocation information, then the accuracy of service identifier representation is improved, but the display complexity and user understanding difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of service identifier representationVSAvoiduser comprehension of display information
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by selectively displaying different levels of detail for resource allocation information based on the specific context and user needs. Rather than uniformly displaying all details, the system presents customized information quality at different locations or conditions, maintaining accuracy while improving user comprehension.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes visual presentation techniques (analogous to color changes principle) to encode complex resource allocation information into visually distinguishable service identifiers. Different visual representations convey different network states and resource allocation conditions, making accurate information representation intuitively understandable for users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #32Color changes
