Telecommunications Terminal Service Component Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current telecommunications systems require users to register with multiple service providers to access different services, which is cumbersome and not applicable to complex services that require multiple service components from various providers.
Innovation Solution
A method where a telecommunications terminal splits services into components, determines the best provider for each component, and connects to them individually to provide the desired service without needing multiple registrations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If users register with multiple service providers to access different services, then service access capability is improved, but device complexity and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the service access process into two distinct phases: registration phase (single service provider) and service selection phase (multiple service providers). The terminal registers with only one service provider but can dynamically select services from multiple providers through service component identification and selection mechanisms, thereby reducing registration complexity while maintaining service access capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces service component identification information as an intermediary that enables the terminal to access services from multiple service providers without registering with all of them. The selected service provider acts as a mediator that provides access to service components from other providers through roaming agreements and service component sharing, simplifying the registration process while expanding service access.
2Loss of energy
If users manually select between multiple service providers, then service cost optimization is improved, but productivity and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service mechanisms where the terminal automatically identifies available service components from multiple service providers, presents them to the user with relevant information (cost, quality, coverage), and enables automatic or semi-automatic selection based on user preferences and current needs. This eliminates manual provider-by-provider evaluation while maintaining cost optimization capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the terminal continuously monitors service quality, cost, and availability from multiple service providers, and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust service selections. The system provides real-time information to users about service component performance and cost-effectiveness, enabling informed decisions without manual intervention in the selection process.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system supports complex services requiring multiple service components from various providers, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity and difficulty of detection worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments complex services into discrete service components, each with identifiable characteristics and providers. The terminal independently manages each service component through identification, selection, and activation processes, rather than managing entire service bundles from single providers. This modular approach simplifies the management of complex services by breaking them down into selectable atomic units.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal service access mechanism that works across different service types and providers through standardized service component identification and selection procedures. The same core mechanisms (service component identification, selection based on criteria, activation) apply whether the service is simple or complex, reducing the complexity of managing diverse service types through a unified approach.

AI summary
A telecommunications service to be obtained for a user is split into a plurality of service components. A telecommunications terminal determines the most appropriate service provider for each service component; each of the service components is obtained by a corresponding service provider; and the telecommunications terminal invokes the functionality of each service component according to the service to be obtained. This is particularly useful for wireless mobile telecommunications terminals.
