Innovation Solution

A wireless transceiver information provisioning system that includes a computing device with a transceiver device connected to a wireless transceiver information provisioning device, capable of receiving, storing, and wirelessly transmitting transceiver information in response to a request.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If conventional network-based methods are used to retrieve transceiver information, then transceiver information can be retrieved, but the process becomes cumbersome and complex as the number of transceiver devices and port configurations increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransceiver information retrievalVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

A wireless transceiver information provisioning device is introduced as an intermediary component that connects between the transceiver device and the user's wireless device. This mediator automatically retrieves transceiver information and makes it accessible via wireless communication, eliminating the need for users to manually navigate complex network management interfaces while preserving complete transceiver information retrieval capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The wireless transceiver information provisioning device enables the system to serve itself by automatically collecting, storing, and providing transceiver information without requiring user intervention in the information retrieval process. The device autonomously interfaces with the transceiver device, retrieves its information, and makes it available to wireless devices upon request

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Loss of information

If conventional network-based methods are used to retrieve transceiver information, then transceiver information can be retrieved, but the process requires significant time and user training

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransceiver information retrievalVSAvoidinformation retrieval time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The wireless transceiver information provisioning device performs preliminary actions by pre-retrieving and storing transceiver information in ready-to-provide format. When a wireless device requests information, the provisioning device can immediately provide the pre-collected data without requiring real-time network queries or user navigation through management interfaces, significantly reducing information retrieval time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of information

If conventional network-based methods are used to retrieve transceiver information, then transceiver information can be retrieved, but the process becomes difficult for users unfamiliar with networking devices

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransceiver information retrievalVSAvoiduser operation ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The wireless transceiver information provisioning device acts as an intermediary that shields users from network complexity. Users simply interact with their familiar wireless devices to request information, while the provisioning device handles all complex network communication, device interfacing, and data retrieval operations in the background, making the process as easy as wireless communication

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs self-service by automatically handling all information retrieval operations without requiring user knowledge of networking protocols or device configurations. The provisioning device autonomously manages the entire process from initiating communication with the transceiver device to formatting and providing the information to the user's wireless device

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A wireless transceiver information provisioning device includes a wireless transceiver information provisioning device chassis, a transceiver device connector on the wireless transceiver information provisioning device chassis that is connected to a wireless transceiver information provisioning device connector on a transceiver device that is connected to a port, and a wireless communication subsystem housed in the wireless transceiver information provisioning device chassis and coupled to the transceiver device connector. The wireless communication subsystem receives transceiver information associated with the transceiver device via the transceiver device connector, and stores the first transceiver information. When the wireless communication subsystem wirelessly subsequently receives a transceiver information request from a wireless device, it wirelessly transmit the transceiver information to the wireless device.
