Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple operation signal transmitters are used for drone control, then operational safety and support capability are improved, but signal synchronization and system complexity become problematic
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a synchronization server as an intermediary component that mediates between multiple operation signal transmitters and the drone. This server receives operation signals from multiple transmitters, synchronizes them based on timing information, and then transmits the synchronized composite signal to the drone, thereby resolving the synchronization complexity while maintaining safety benefits of multiple transmitters
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the control system into distinct functional modules: multiple operation signal transmitters, a synchronization server, and the drone receiver. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, making the overall system more manageable and the synchronization process more controllable
2Productivity
If seamless switching between operators is implemented, then operational continuity is improved, but signal transmission complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The synchronization server performs preliminary actions by pre-synchronizing operation signals from multiple transmitters before they reach the drone. By organizing and timing the signals in advance, the system enables seamless operator switching without causing transmission conflicts or delays at the drone end
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic signal transmission where the synchronization server adaptively manages multiple operation signals based on real-time conditions. The system can dynamically switch between different transmitter signals and handle overlapping operational areas, providing operational continuity while adapting to changing transmission conditions
