Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If only congestion degree of base station is used to determine communication state, then the measurement is simple, but the measurement precision is insufficient because other factors than congestion degree also influence communication speed
Solution Approach 1:
The communication state detection is segmented into multiple independent measurement components: interference index measurement, congestion degree measurement, and communication speed measurement. Each component measures a specific aspect separately, and the results are integrated to form a comprehensive communication state assessment, thereby improving measurement precision without overwhelming system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The detection system is designed to perform multiple functions: it measures interference indices from multiple base stations, evaluates congestion degrees, predicts communication speeds, and provides route recommendations. This multi-functional approach allows a single system to address various aspects of communication quality, improving overall measurement precision while maintaining reasonable complexity through integrated design
2Measurement precision
If interference index from multiple base stations is measured and integrated, then the measurement precision of communication state improves, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the essential interference information from multiple base stations by measuring interference indices and comparing them to identify the dominant interfering base station. Rather than processing all signal parameters from all base stations, it extracts and focuses on the critical interference index data, improving measurement precision while controlling processing complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary measurements of interference indices from multiple base stations and stores them in advance. When determining communication state, it retrieves and compares these pre-measured indices rather than performing real-time complex calculations, thereby improving response accuracy while reducing instantaneous processing complexity
