Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If comprehensive signal analysis methods are implemented, then measurement precision and reliability evaluation are improved, but device complexity and analysis time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal analysis precisionVSAvoidanalysis method complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The signal analysis method is segmented into distinct functional modules: signal loading module, setting module (for configuring search conditions), search module (for finding matching signals), and pairing analysis module. Each module performs a specific task in the analysis workflow, making the complex analysis process manageable and systematic while maintaining high measurement precision through structured signal pairing and statistical evaluation.

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive signal analysis methods are implemented, then measurement precision and reliability evaluation are improved, but analysis time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal analysis precisionVSAvoidanalysis time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The setting module allows users to pre-configure search conditions (such as signal types, time ranges, and matching criteria) before the actual analysis begins. This preliminary setup enables the search module to efficiently filter and identify relevant signal pairs without performing exhaustive searches, thereby maintaining high measurement precision while reducing the overall analysis time.
