Telecommunication Channel Separation for Multimedia Sharing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current telecommunications systems, such as Orange Link, fail to guarantee the quality of service for voice and video communications when sharing multimedia content, as they use the same data link for both, leading to delays and synchronization issues during multimedia data sharing.
Innovation Solution
A method that allows users to access shared information through a distinct communication channel from their voice/video communication channel, using a notification server and information server to detect and authorize access based on communication status, ensuring separate data flows for communication and information access.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If the same data link is used for both voice/video communication and multimedia data transfer, then device complexity is reduced, but quality of service deteriorates due to bandwidth sharing causing delays and synchronization issues
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the communication system into two separate channels: a first channel dedicated to voice/video communication and a second channel dedicated to multimedia data transfer. This segmentation allows each channel to operate independently with dedicated bandwidth, ensuring quality of service for communication while enabling efficient data sharing without interfering with the other function.
2Reliability
If separate channels are used for communication and data access, then quality of service is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a unified system architecture where a single system can perform multiple functions: voice/video communication on the first channel and multimedia data sharing on the second channel. The system automatically manages channel selection and data routing, providing multi-functionality without requiring separate independent systems, thus limiting the increase in complexity.
3Ease of operation
If automatic authorization is implemented based on communication detection, then ease of operation is improved, but system complexity increases due to additional detection and notification mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects when users are communicating on the first channel and autonomously sets up the second channel for data sharing without requiring manual user configuration. The system self-manages the authorization process by detecting the communication state and automatically enabling data sharing between the communicating parties, eliminating the need for users to manually configure sharing settings.

AI summary
A telecommunication method and system allowing at least two distinct users to access the same information set (D1. D2). The method according to the invention comprises: a step (F24) of receiving a request (R) transmitted via a first channel by a first user (U1 ) to access said information set (D1, D2), said request (R) comprising an identifier (I D1 ) of said first user (U1 ); and a step of sending (F32, F16, F18), via said first channel, a message bearing an identifier (I D2) of a second user (U2) and proposing to allow said second user (U2) to access said information set (D1, D2); said identifier (I D2) of said second user (U2) stemming from an analysis of a communication between said first user (U1 ) and said second user ( U2) via a second distinct channel to said first channel, said communication being detected by means of the identifier (I D1 ) of said first user (U1 ).
