Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Power
If the strength of the wireless power signal transmitted from the wireless power transmitting apparatus is increased, then the power transfer efficiency is improved, but signal distortion occurs causing communication errors
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the modulation depth adjustable based on wireless power signal strength. The modulation depth is dynamically changed according to the measured power level: using smaller modulation depths at higher power levels and larger modulation depths at lower power levels. This dynamic adjustment prevents signal distortion while maintaining effective communication across varying power conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the modulation depth parameter based on the strength of the wireless power signal. By measuring the power level and selecting appropriate modulation depths from a set of predetermined values, the system adapts the communication parameters to match the current power conditions, thereby preventing distortion at high power levels while ensuring detectability at low power levels.
2Ease of operation
If amplitude modulation is used for communication, then communication capability is enabled, but signal distortion occurs at high power levels
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the modulation depth based on the measured wireless power signal strength. At higher power levels where distortion is more likely, smaller modulation depths are used to prevent distortion. At lower power levels, larger modulation depths are used to ensure the communication signal remains detectable. This dynamic parameter adjustment maintains both communication capability and signal accuracy across all power levels.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback by measuring the wireless power signal strength and using this information to determine the appropriate modulation depth. The system continuously monitors the power level and adjusts the modulation depth accordingly, creating a closed-loop control system that prevents distortion while maintaining effective communication.
