Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If the smart device reports all device information and status data to the server continuously, then the server can have complete information for management, but the server load increases and network bandwidth is consumed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating the reporting frequency and detail level based on the type of information. Critical status information (online/offline, power consumption thresholds) is reported immediately and frequently, while routine operational data is reported less frequently or in aggregated form. This selective reporting strategy ensures the server receives necessary information without being overwhelmed by redundant data.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by setting up local monitoring and filtering mechanisms in the smart device before data transmission. The device pre-processes information locally, identifying only those status changes that meet predefined criteria (e.g., power consumption exceeding thresholds, critical errors) for immediate reporting. This preliminary filtering reduces the volume of data transmitted to the server while ensuring critical information is captured.
2Use of energy by moving object
If the smart device optimizes power management by reducing transmission frequency, then power consumption decreases, but the timeliness of status reporting deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by implementing adaptive transmission frequency that adjusts based on device status. When critical events occur (power consumption exceeds thresholds, online/offline status changes, errors detected), the transmission frequency increases immediately to ensure timely reporting. During normal operation, transmission frequency decreases to conserve power. This dynamic adjustment optimizes the balance between power consumption and reporting timeliness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the device monitors its own status parameters (power consumption, operational state) and uses this feedback to determine when reporting is necessary. The system continuously compares current status against thresholds and only triggers transmission when significant changes occur, ensuring timely reporting of critical events while minimizing unnecessary transmissions during stable operation.
3Loss of energy
If the smart device performs local processing and filtering of data before transmission, then network bandwidth consumption reduces, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by implementing selective data processing rather than comprehensive analysis. The device performs only essential filtering operations locally - comparing status parameters against predefined thresholds and identifying critical events - while leaving more complex data processing and analysis to the server. This partial local processing reduces network bandwidth consumption without requiring the smart device to have full data processing capabilities.
