Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If sensing services are continuously activated to achieve high sensing accuracy and precision, then sensing performance is improved, but resource occupation increases and energy consumption rises
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements periodic sensing service activation based on trigger conditions. Instead of continuous sensing, the system periodically evaluates whether trigger conditions are met (such as user actions, gestures, or specific environmental conditions) and only activates sensing services when these conditions are satisfied. This periodic activation mechanism maintains sensing accuracy when needed while significantly reducing energy consumption during idle periods.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent dynamically adjusts sensing service activation based on real-time condition evaluation. The system transitions sensing services between active and inactive states according to whether trigger conditions are met, creating a dynamic resource allocation strategy. This dynamic approach allows the system to optimize the balance between sensing accuracy and energy consumption by adapting to changing operational requirements.
2Measurement precision
If sensing services are continuously activated to achieve high sensing accuracy and precision, then sensing performance is improved, but resource utilization efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs periodic evaluation of trigger conditions to determine sensing service activation. By periodically checking whether conditions such as user actions or specific environmental states are met, the system activates sensing services only when necessary. This periodic mechanism improves resource utilization efficiency by avoiding continuous resource occupation while maintaining sensing accuracy when trigger conditions are satisfied.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a self-service mechanism where the communication device autonomously evaluates trigger conditions and makes decisions about sensing service activation without requiring continuous external control. This self-service approach improves resource utilization efficiency by enabling the system to independently optimize sensing service activation based on real-time conditions, reducing unnecessary resource occupation while maintaining sensing accuracy when needed.
