Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If 5G base station resources are shared with 4G infrastructure, then deployment cost is reduced, but transmission rate becomes insufficient to maintain connections

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedeployment costVSAvoidconnection stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces compensation data as an intermediary element. When the actual transmission rate falls below the threshold, compensation data is transmitted to fill the rate gap, ensuring the base station's minimum rate requirement is met while allowing resource sharing between 4G and 5G infrastructures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts the transmission rate parameter by detecting when the actual rate drops below the threshold and compensating with additional data transmission. This parameter change approach maintains connection stability by ensuring the transmission rate stays above the required threshold

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If base station resources are limited, then resource allocation efficiency improves, but connection disconnections increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation efficiencyVSAvoidconnection continuity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the terminal device continuously detects the actual transmission rate and compares it with the threshold. When the rate drops below the threshold, the system responds by transmitting compensation data, creating a closed-loop control that maintains connection continuity while managing limited resources efficiently

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary detection of the transmission rate to identify when compensation is needed before disconnection occurs. By detecting rate drops early and transmitting compensation data proactively, the system prevents disconnections and maintains continuous connections

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A communication data processing method and apparatus, a terminal device, and a storage medium are provided. The method is applied to a terminal device, and includes: detecting an actual transmission rate between the terminal device and a base station; and performing, if the actual transmission rate is less than a preset rate threshold for maintaining a connection between the terminal device and the base station, communication of compensation data with a preset server through the base station according to a difference between the actual transmission rate and the preset rate threshold, where the sum of a transmission rate of the compensation data and the actual transmission rate is greater than or equal to the preset rate threshold.
