Shared Connection ID Allocation for Mobile Body Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing systems for managing mobile bodies like automatic drive vehicles and unmanned flying objects face inefficiencies due to the need for multiple connection IDs for high-accuracy positioning, leading to unnecessary costs for operators, as not all mobile bodies require high-accuracy positioning at all times.
Innovation Solution
An operation system that allocates a single connection ID to multiple mobile bodies based on their usage periods, allowing the same ID to be used for different vehicles during different times, thereby reducing the overall number of IDs required and simplifying management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If connection IDs are allocated to all mobile bodies for high-accuracy positioning, then positioning accuracy is improved, but cost increases due to unnecessary ID allocation
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically allocates connection IDs based on real-time operational status. The ID allocation unit assigns connection IDs to mobile bodies only when they are in operation and require high-accuracy positioning, and releases them when mobile bodies are not in operation. This dynamic approach ensures that the number of allocated connection IDs matches the actual demand, reducing unnecessary costs while maintaining positioning accuracy when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter of connection ID allocation status based on operational status. When a mobile body's operational status changes (from not operating to operating, or vice versa), the system adjusts the allocation state of connection IDs accordingly. This parameter change mechanism allows the system to optimize resource utilization by aligning ID allocation with actual operational requirements.
2Measurement precision
If connection IDs are allocated to all mobile bodies, then high-accuracy positioning is available for all, but device complexity increases due to ID management
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service mechanisms where the ID allocation unit automatically manages connection ID allocation and release based on operational status information. The system monitors its own state and performs allocation decisions without requiring manual intervention, thereby reducing management complexity while ensuring accurate positioning for operational mobile bodies.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses feedback from operational status monitoring to drive connection ID allocation decisions. The ID allocation unit receives feedback about whether mobile bodies are in operation and automatically adjusts ID allocation accordingly. This closed-loop feedback mechanism simplifies management by making the system responsive to actual needs without requiring complex manual coordination.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple connection IDs are secured for different mobile bodies, then each body can operate independently, but cost efficiency decreases due to wasted IDs
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts connection ID allocation based on which mobile bodies are currently in operation. Instead of statically allocating IDs to all mobile bodies regardless of usage, the system activates ID allocation only when mobile bodies are operational and deactivates it when they are not. This maintains independent operation capability for each mobile body while optimizing cost efficiency by eliminating waste during periods when mobile bodies are not in use.

AI summary
An ID management unit allocates a first connection ID to a first vehicle in a first period and allocates the first connection ID to a second vehicle in a second period. A correction information acquisition unit connects to a distribution device using the first connection ID and receives correction information for the first vehicle from the distribution device in the first period. The correction information acquisition unit connects to the distribution device using the first connection ID and receives the correction information for the second vehicle from the distribution device in the second period. With the system, it is possible to reduce waste of connection IDs necessary for connection to the distribution device that distributes correction information for realizing high-accuracy positioning.
