Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If machine learning is integrated into wireless communication systems to optimize communication models, then communication performance and adaptability are improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication model adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a communication model as an intermediary layer between the wireless communication system and machine learning algorithms. This model includes parameters that can be adjusted based on ML predictions, allowing the system to adapt to varying communication environments without directly embedding complex ML algorithms in the communication protocol, thus balancing adaptability improvement with system complexity management

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs parameter changes by introducing a set of adjustable parameters in the communication model that can be modified based on machine learning predictions. These parameters control aspects such as resource allocation, transmission power, and scheduling decisions, enabling the system to adapt to different communication conditions without fundamentally changing the system architecture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If parameter values are changed frequently to collect training data for communication models, then model optimization capability is improved, but communication overhead increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel optimization capabilityVSAvoidcommunication overhead
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial action by selectively changing only certain parameters that are most critical for model training while keeping other parameters stable. This approach allows the system to collect sufficient training data without requiring complete parameter reconfiguration, thereby reducing the time and overhead associated with frequent parameter changes while still enabling effective model optimization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
