Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If ultrasonic image is transmitted at fixed high resolution to wireless communication terminal, then image quality is improved, but transmission bandwidth is wasted when terminal has lower resolution display
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the resolution of transmitted ultrasonic image data based on the resolution capabilities of the wireless communication terminal. The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus receives resolution information from the terminal and adapts the frame data resolution accordingly, ensuring optimal bandwidth utilization while maintaining adequate image quality for each specific terminal type.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the resolution parameter of the transmitted ultrasonic image data according to the terminal's display capabilities. By modifying the data resolution parameter to match the terminal's resolution level, the system avoids transmitting excessive data that would waste bandwidth while still providing sufficient image quality for the specific terminal.
2Device complexity
If ultrasonic diagnostic system uses fixed resolution level, then system complexity is reduced, but adaptability to various wireless communication terminals is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus is designed with multi-functionality to support various wireless communication terminals with different resolution levels. By incorporating resolution detection and adaptive data generation capabilities, the single apparatus can universally interface with multiple terminal types, providing appropriate image quality for each without requiring separate systems for different resolutions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adapts its output resolution based on the connected terminal's capabilities. Rather than being fixed at a single resolution level, the apparatus adjusts its frame data generation parameters in real-time according to the terminal's resolution information, enabling versatile compatibility across different device types while maintaining manageable system complexity.
3Measurement precision
If high resolution frame data is generated for all terminals, then image quality is maintained, but data transmission time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the resolution parameter of transmitted data based on terminal capabilities. By adjusting the data resolution parameter to match the terminal's display resolution, the system reduces the amount of data that needs to be transmitted while maintaining adequate image quality, thereby decreasing transmission time without sacrificing necessary image detail.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts the resolution of transmitted frame data according to the terminal's resolution capabilities. This dynamic adaptation ensures that only the necessary amount of data is transmitted for each specific terminal type, reducing transmission time while maintaining optimal image quality for the specific display device being used.
