Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a radio access node is selected without considering network quality and resource status, then the service processing is simpler, but the properness and efficiency of service processing deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the application-layer traffic optimization system continuously collects network quality information and application-layer traffic optimization information from multiple radio access nodes, and uses this feedback to dynamically select the most appropriate target radio access node for processing service requests, thereby ensuring proper service processing while maintaining reasonable system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an application-layer traffic optimization system as an intermediary between user equipment and radio access nodes. This intermediary collects and processes information from multiple radio access nodes, evaluates their network quality and resource status, and makes intelligent selection decisions, thus improving service processing properness without requiring direct complex interactions between user equipment and individual radio access nodes
2Reliability
If multiple radio access nodes are evaluated based on network quality and resource status, then the properness of service processing is improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the service processing function into distinct components: user equipment generates service requests, the application-layer traffic optimization system collects and evaluates information from multiple radio access nodes, and the selected target radio access node processes the service. This segmentation allows complex multi-node evaluation to be managed through a dedicated optimization system without overwhelming the entire network architecture
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by having the application-layer traffic optimization system pre-collect network quality information and application-layer traffic optimization information from multiple radio access nodes before service requests arrive. This preliminary information gathering and evaluation enables rapid, informed selection of the target radio access node when service requests are received, reducing real-time decision complexity
