Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple heterogeneous detection and recognition devices are used for collaborative detection, then detection accuracy and reliability are improved, but data sharing and message review calculation cannot be implemented due to differences in message content and formats

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoiddata format compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an access and distribution unit as an intermediary component between heterogeneous detection devices and the upper command platform. This unit receives detection data from various devices with different message formats, performs protocol translation and data standardization, and distributes processed data to relevant processing units. This mediator resolves the format incompatibility issue while maintaining detection accuracy from multiple devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically changes data parameters including message formats, protocols, and data structures to accommodate different device types. The access and distribution unit transforms heterogeneous data into a unified format, enabling seamless integration and collaboration of multiple detection devices without compromising their individual detection capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If heterogeneous detection devices from different manufacturers are integrated, then detection coverage is improved, but cross-reuse and message review calculation cannot be implemented on the upper command platform

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection coverageVSAvoiddata access uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The access and distribution unit is designed with universal functionality to handle multiple types of detection devices from different manufacturers. It provides a unified interface for data access, distribution, and protocol translation, enabling the upper command platform to operate with diverse devices through a single standardized access point, thereby achieving both broad detection coverage and ease of operation.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments the data processing architecture into distinct functional units: edge data units for local processing, an access and distribution unit for centralized coordination, and scheduling and calculation units for analysis. This segmentation allows each component to specialize in specific tasks while maintaining standardized interfaces, improving both versatility and operational simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Measurement precision

If centralized processing of heterogeneous device data is implemented, then data fusion and positioning accuracy are improved, but data transmission efficiency and speed need to be enhanced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepositioning accuracyVSAvoiddata transmission speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary data processing and filtering at the edge data units before transmitting data to the central access and distribution unit. This preliminary action reduces the volume of data requiring centralized transmission while preserving the precision needed for accurate positioning and data fusion, thereby improving transmission efficiency without sacrificing measurement accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
