Solution Overview

Problem

Managing telephonic communications for multiple synthetic identities is complex and error-prone, as users often have to juggle multiple phone numbers, leading to confusion and potential disclosure of real identities.

Innovation Solution

A system with a processor and memory that matches communication sender or receiver numbers to synthetic identities, using a synthetic identity management platform to coordinate communication delivery and provide context through a user interface, allowing seamless switching between identities for messages and voice calls.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a user purchases multiple phone numbers for different identities, then each identity can have dedicated communication channels, but the device complexity and ease of operation deteriorate due to carrying multiple phones and managing multiple numbers

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveidentity communication capabilityVSAvoidphone management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies multi-functionality by enabling a single phone number to serve multiple synthetic identities through software-based communication channels. The system allows one physical device to handle communications for different identities by dynamically routing messages and calls based on identity context, eliminating the need for separate phones for each identity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary system (communication management platform) that mediates between multiple identities and a single phone number. This intermediary routes communications to the appropriate identity context, manages identity switching, and presents a unified interface to the user, thereby reducing the complexity of managing multiple numbers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If a user manages multiple phone numbers manually, then each identity can be communicated with, but the ease of operation deteriorates due to confusion and error-prone identity switching

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemulti-identity communicationVSAvoididentity context awareness
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms that continuously inform the user about which identity is currently active and provide automatic routing of communications based on identity context. The system gives real-time feedback on identity state, allowing users to seamlessly switch between identities without manual configuration or confusion about which number is active.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs self-service by automatically managing identity routing, selecting appropriate communication channels, and maintaining identity context without requiring user intervention. The communication management platform autonomously handles the complexity of routing messages to the correct identity, eliminating manual management efforts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Ease of manufacture

If normal mobile phone contracts are used, then phone services are provided, but the adaptability deteriorates because dynamic adding and deleting of phone services is not allowed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvephone service provisionVSAvoiddynamic identity provisioning
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by enabling dynamic provisioning and deprovisioning of communication channels for synthetic identities. The system allows identities to be created, modified, and deleted on-demand through software configuration rather than requiring traditional telecommunication contract changes. Communication routes can be dynamically established and terminated as identities are managed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system utilizes parameter changes by modifying communication routing parameters, network identifiers, and service configurations dynamically to support multiple synthetic identities. Instead of changing physical phone numbers or contracts, the system changes software parameters to route communications to different identity contexts, enabling flexible identity management without traditional contract restrictions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

A machine has a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to match a communication sender number or a communication receiver number associated with a communication to a synthetic identity. A parameter associated with the synthetic identity is selected. Delivery of the communication is coordinated such that the recipient of the communication views the parameter upon receipt of the communication.
