Communication Terminal Log Upload via Band-Aware Timing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication systems face challenges in transmitting log information without degrading image quality during multipoint conferences, as data communication traffic increases, potentially limiting video signal quality.
Innovation Solution
A communication system with distributed architecture, where communication terminals generate and store log information, and a communication controller manages the transmission of this information using a log upload server, optimizing data volume and timing to avoid congesting the communication line band.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If log information is transmitted from terminal during communication, then log information can be collected for system analysis, but data communication traffic increases causing image quality degradation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by having terminals store log information locally before transmission. The log information is generated and stored in the terminal's storage unit during communication, then transmitted later when appropriate conditions are met (such as communication line band availability). This prevents log transmission from interfering with real-time communication quality while ensuring logs are collected for system analysis.
2Loss of time
If log information is transmitted during communication, then log data can be collected timely, but communication line band is consumed affecting video signal quality
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the log transmission timing adaptive rather than fixed. The transmission timing is dynamically determined based on communication line band conditions and communication status. The system can adjust when to transmit logs - either during communication when band permits, or after communication ends - to optimize both timeliness of log collection and preservation of communication quality.
3Loss of information
If log information is uploaded continuously, then complete log data is available for analysis, but processing load increases and communication efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the extraction principle by separating log information handling from the main communication data flow. Log information is extracted and stored independently in the terminal's storage unit, then transmitted separately to the log upload server. This separation allows complete log collection without continuously burdening the communication channel, improving overall communication efficiency while maintaining log information completeness.

AI summary
A communication system includes a plurality of communication terminals to transmit communication information and a communication controller. Each of the communication terminals includes: a generator to generate log information on communication between the communication terminals; a storage to store log information generated by the generator; and a transmitter to upload log information that is capable of being uploaded depending on a communication line band used for the communication information. The communication controller includes a communication management server configured to control transmission of the communication information and a log upload server, wherein the communication controller is configured to distribute the log information uploaded by the transmitter to the log upload server.
