Solution Overview

Problem

The TR069 protocol lacks sufficient character length for detailed alarm information, supports only one language, and lacks basic terminal information, leading to incomplete network management and increased operation and maintenance costs.

Innovation Solution

Extend the TR181 model file with index and description fields, set field lengths based on globalization adaptability and global specifications, and add internationalization support to enable multilingual capabilities, using SOAP messages for file upload.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If the TR181 model file is extended with index and description fields to provide complete network management information, then the completeness of network management information is improved, but the complexity of the model file structure increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork management information completenessVSAvoidmodel file structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The TR181 model file is segmented into distinct functional components: index fields for identification, description fields for detailed information, and internationalization fields for multilingual support. This segmentation allows each field to serve a specific purpose, improving information completeness while maintaining manageable structural complexity through clear organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds a new dimension to the TR181 model by introducing internationalization fields that support multiple languages. This dimensional extension allows the model to convey complete network management information across different linguistic contexts without fundamentally restructuring the core model architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Loss of information

If the character length of fields is increased to accommodate detailed alarm information, then the information capacity is improved, but the data transmission size and processing overhead increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvealarm information detail capacityVSAvoiddata transmission volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

Different field lengths are assigned based on local requirements: index fields use compact formats for efficient identification, while description fields use longer formats for detailed alarm information. This localized optimization of field lengths ensures adequate information capacity where needed while minimizing unnecessary data transmission in areas requiring less detail.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Adaptability or versatility

If the TR181 model is extended to support multiple languages through internationalization fields, then the adaptability to globalization is improved, but the model file size and configuration complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveglobalization adaptabilityVSAvoidmodel configuration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The internationalization fields are designed with universal structure and naming conventions that can accommodate multiple languages without requiring separate model files for each language. This multi-functional design allows the same extended TR181 model to serve global deployment needs across different linguistic environments, improving globalization adaptability while controlling configuration complexity through standardized patterns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
