Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If loop control is used to maintain steady output voltage, then output voltage stability is improved, but response speed deteriorates causing power failures when load dynamically changes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoutput voltage stabilityVSAvoidcontrol response speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary detection of constant-voltage operating frequency before load changes occur. By detecting this frequency in advance and using it to control the transmitter, the system prepares the optimal operating point beforehand, enabling immediate response to load changes without waiting for loop control feedback, thus resolving the contradiction between stability and response speed

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The constant-voltage operating frequency serves as an intermediary parameter that bridges the transmitter and receiver. Instead of directly controlling output voltage through slow loop feedback, the system uses this frequency intermediary to achieve rapid voltage stabilization. The frequency detection and control mechanism acts as a mediator that translates load requirements into appropriate transmitter operating parameters instantaneously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Stability of the object's composition

If operating frequency is constantly modulated to adapt to load changes, then output voltage stability is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The invention extracts the constant-voltage operating frequency as a separate, detectable parameter from the complex control process. By isolating this specific frequency characteristic and using it as the primary control variable, the system simplifies the control architecture while maintaining voltage stability. Instead of managing multiple interdependent control parameters, the system focuses on detecting and maintaining this single critical frequency parameter

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables the transmitter to self-adjust by detecting its own constant-voltage operating frequency and using this information to maintain optimal performance. The frequency detection mechanism provides self-service feedback that automatically guides frequency modulation without requiring complex external control systems, thereby achieving voltage stability with reduced system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
