Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
As data processing demands increase due to technological advancements, terminals face significant processing delays due to their limited capabilities, failing to meet user requirements for low latency in data processing.
Innovation Solution
A method where a terminal determines whether the processing delay correlation value satisfies a preset threshold, and if so, sends data to a network side device for processing, thereby offloading processing tasks and reducing terminal load.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If data processing is performed by the terminal itself, then the terminal maintains processing control and simplicity, but the processing delay increases due to limited terminal capabilities
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data processing function by dividing it into two parts: the terminal determines whether offloading is needed based on delay correlation values, and the network side device performs the actual processing when offloading is selected. This segmentation allows the terminal to avoid heavy processing while maintaining control, thereby reducing processing delay without requiring enhanced terminal processing capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces the network side device as an intermediary to handle data processing tasks. Instead of the terminal directly processing all data, the terminal can offload processing to the network side device when delay requirements are critical. This intermediary approach transfers processing burden from the terminal to the network, reducing terminal processing delay while avoiding the need to enhance terminal processing power.
2Loss of time
If data is offloaded to the network side device for processing, then processing delay is reduced, but the network communication overhead and complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by having the terminal perform only the necessary minimum operation of evaluating the delay correlation value and making an offloading decision. The terminal does not need to implement complex offloading management logic,而是 only performs the essential partial function of determining whether to offload based on pre-configured thresholds and measured delay values. This reduces the complexity burden on the terminal while still achieving delay reduction through selective offloading.
3Productivity
If the terminal processes all data itself, then network communication is simplified, but the terminal processing load increases causing higher delay
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces dynamic adaptability by enabling the terminal to flexibly switch between local processing and network offloading modes based on real-time delay correlation measurements. The terminal dynamically evaluates whether current data processing requirements benefit more from local or network processing, and adjusts its behavior accordingly. This dynamic approach allows the system to optimize processing speed by selecting the appropriate processing location, thereby improving overall productivity while reducing processing delay.
