Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing data processing systems for wireless packets face issues with data damage and high power consumption due to inefficient event detection modes, where the interrupt mode may not properly process packets, leading to data loss, and the polling mode consumes unnecessary power even when no data is being processed.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus and method that determine the data transmitting or receiving period to switch between interrupt and polling modes for event detection, using a buffer to store packets and a period determination unit to decide the detection mode based on the packet period, ensuring efficient data processing and minimizing power consumption.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If polling mode is used for event detection, then data processing reliability is improved, but power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the event detection mode switchable between polling mode and interrupt mode based on data transmission characteristics. The system dynamically adjusts the detection mechanism according to whether data is being transmitted or not, optimizing both reliability and power consumption accordingly.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the operational parameter of event detection mode based on transmission state. When data transmission is detected, the system switches to interrupt mode; when no transmission occurs, it switches to polling mode. This parameter change allows the system to adapt its behavior to minimize power consumption while maintaining reliability.
2Use of energy by moving object
If interrupt mode is used for event detection, then power consumption is reduced, but data processing reliability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically selects between interrupt mode and polling mode based on actual data transmission conditions. This dynamic adaptation ensures that interrupt mode (lower power consumption) is used when appropriate, while switching to polling mode (higher reliability) when data transmission is detected, thus resolving the contradiction between power savings and reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by monitoring data transmission status and using this information to adjust the event detection mode. The transmission state serves as feedback that triggers mode switching, ensuring that the system maintains reliability when needed while achieving power savings during idle periods.
3Device complexity
If fixed event detection mode is used, then device complexity is reduced, but data processing efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces dynamic mode switching capability that allows the system to adapt to different data transmission scenarios. This dynamic approach, while adding some complexity, significantly improves data processing efficiency by ensuring the appropriate detection mode is active based on actual transmission conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the event detection parameter based on transmission state, switching between polling and interrupt modes. This parameter adaptation enables the system to optimize data processing efficiency for different operational conditions, outweighing the moderate increase in device complexity.
