Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the terminal device transmits assistance information with parameter updates to the network device, then the network device can improve scheduling efficiency and adapt to changing terminal demands, but the network device may continue to use outdated parameters leading to power waste and scheduling inefficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescheduling efficiencyVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal device transmits indication information in advance to notify the network device which parameter information should be deleted before the network device uses these parameters for scheduling. This preliminary action prevents the network device from wasting power processing and using outdated parameters, while maintaining scheduling efficiency through timely parameter updates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If the network device maintains all received parameter information for future scheduling, then the network device has more flexibility in scheduling decisions, but the network device consumes more power storing and processing unnecessary parameters

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescheduling flexibilityVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The indication information extracts and identifies which specific parameter information should be deleted from the assistance information. By separating the necessary parameters from unnecessary ones through this extraction mechanism, the network device maintains only the relevant parameters for scheduling, reducing power consumption while preserving scheduling flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Loss of energy

If the terminal device frequently updates parameter information to reflect changing demands, then the network device can improve power efficiency by deleting outdated parameters, but the terminal device increases transmission overhead and network device processing load

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepower efficiencyVSAvoidprocessing load
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The indication information is a lightweight, minimal- overhead data structure that provides just enough information to identify which parameters to delete. This disposable indication mechanism allows frequent parameter updates without significantly increasing processing load, as the indication information itself is simple and quick for the network device to process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)
