Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing short-range communication methods do not effectively utilize information from neighboring electronic devices to optimize services requested by an electronic apparatus, leading to suboptimal service delivery based on the capabilities and characteristics of these devices.
Innovation Solution
An electronic apparatus is designed to receive and transmit information about neighboring devices, including display and communication details, to a server, which processes this information to provide services tailored to the specific capabilities of these devices, enabling optimized service delivery.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the electronic apparatus includes information on neighboring apparatuses in the service request, then the service optimization and user experience are improved, but the communication data size and processing complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the service request into multiple parts: device information, beacon signal information, and neighboring apparatus information. This segmentation allows the server to process each component separately and efficiently, reducing overall processing complexity while maintaining service optimization capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal service request format that can handle multiple types of information (device info, beacon info, neighboring apparatus info) in a standardized structure. This multi-functional request format improves adaptability across different service scenarios while maintaining consistent processing procedures.
2Measurement precision
If the electronic apparatus transmits detailed information about neighboring apparatuses, then the service delivery accuracy is improved, but the communication overhead and energy consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential information from neighboring apparatuses that is necessary for service optimization, such as display capabilities and communication characteristics. By taking out only the relevant data rather than transmitting complete device profiles, the patent achieves accurate service delivery while minimizing communication overhead and energy consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies partial action by including only the necessary subset of neighboring apparatus information in the service request. Rather than transmitting all possible device parameters, it selectively includes information that directly impacts service delivery accuracy, thereby reducing communication energy consumption while maintaining sufficient precision.
