Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If continuous jamming signals are generated to block unauthorized signals, then jamming effectiveness is improved, but interference with authorized communication signals increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvejamming effectivenessVSAvoidinterference with authorized signals
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary detection and classification of signals before generating jamming signals. The signal detection terminal identifies unauthorized signals and determines their characteristics in advance, allowing the jamming terminal to target only specific unauthorized signals rather than broadcasting continuous jamming signals across all frequencies, thus avoiding interference with authorized communications

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The jamming system applies different characteristics to different parts of the frequency spectrum. Instead of uniform jamming across all bands, the system generates jamming signals targeted at specific frequency ranges where unauthorized signals are detected, creating localized jamming effects that block threat signals while leaving authorized frequency bands unaffected

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Area of stationary object

If high-power jamming signals are used to ensure coverage, then jamming range is improved, but signal interference region expands causing damage in normal environments

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvejamming coverage areaVSAvoidsignal interference damage
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The jamming system dynamically adjusts transmission power based on detected signal characteristics and environmental conditions. The control terminal receives detection results from the signal detection terminal and modulates the jamming terminal's output power in real-time, ensuring sufficient coverage of unauthorized signals while minimizing excessive interference in normal communication environments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes key parameters of jamming signals including power level, frequency, and modulation characteristics based on real-time detection data. By adjusting these parameters dynamically rather than using fixed high-power settings, the system achieves effective jamming of unauthorized signals while reducing harmful interference to legitimate communications

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Measurement precision

If signal detection and analysis functions are integrated into jamming apparatus, then ability to distinguish authorized from unauthorized signals is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal distinction accuracyVSAvoidapparatus structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system divides functionality into separate modules: a signal detection terminal that performs detection and analysis, a control terminal that processes detection results and makes decisions, and a jamming terminal that executes jamming operations. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining high detection accuracy through specialized detection algorithms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Ease of operation

If jamming terminal operates independently without network control, then operational autonomy is improved, but ability to adhere to regulatory policies and coordinate with detection terminal decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperational independenceVSAvoidpolicy compliance flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The control terminal serves as an intermediary between the detection terminal and jamming terminal, receiving detection results, applying policy rules, and generating appropriate jamming commands. This intermediary layer enables the jamming terminal to operate autonomously based on pre-configured policies while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and coordination with detection activities through structured communication protocols

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A wideband intelligent jamming control apparatus and method is provided, which efficiently control an unauthorized threat signal. The wideband intelligent jamming control apparatus includes a signal detection terminal for detecting and analyzing wideband frequency signals in real time, and transmitting a jamming command and jamming signal specification information if a corresponding wideband frequency signal is determined to be an unauthorized threat signal. A jamming terminal receives the jamming command and the jamming signal specification information, and generates and emits a jamming signal based on the jamming command and the jamming signal specification information. The signal detection terminal and the jamming terminal may be configured to be physically separated from each other and may be controlled on a network.
