Specific embodiment

Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, to the technical side in the embodiment of the present invention Case is clearly and completely described it is clear that described embodiment is only the present invention one Divide embodiment, rather than whole embodiments.Based on the embodiment in the present invention, this area is general The every other embodiment that logical technical staff is obtained under the premise of not making creative work, Broadly fall into the scope of protection of the invention.

One embodiment of the invention provides a kind of collocation method of OTA AKU, is applied to server, This server configures has at least one OTA AKU, as shown in figure 1, the method can include：

101st, server detects whether an OTA AKU is special AKU.

Wherein, an OTA AKU includes the current latest edition and first in server for the software Differential file between version, or an OTA AKU includes the current latest edition of software Complete packet, the low version of first version than current latest edition.Described special upgrading Bag refers to the OTA AKU of software upgrading to current latest edition for section terminating equipment.

Specifically, for the purpose of upgrading risk control, under some application scenarios, run dimension When shield personnel configure OTA AKU in the server, some OTA AKUs can be configured to For section terminating equipment by the special AKU of software upgrading to latest edition, for example, pressing Under the scene upgraded according to region, by some OTA AKUs be configured for a certain specifically The AKU that software upgrading is currently up-to-date version by the terminal unit in area, so, in terminal When equipment initiates software version detection, the terminal unit being only in this particular locality just can be examined Measure this OTA AKU, and the terminal unit being not in this particular locality just can't detect.But It is, in order to avoid when software needs to configure highest version, server configures are multiple to be joined with this needs The highest version corresponding OTA AKU put, and lead to by software terminal unit current version Originally it is upgraded to the not unique situation of upgrade file chain needed for latest edition to occur, server needs to examine Survey and include differential file between the current latest edition of server and first version for the software, or Person includes an OTA AKU (the i.e. server inspection of the complete packet of current latest edition of software Survey last the OTA AKU at least one OTA AKU of itself configuration) whether For special AKU.

102nd, when an OTA AKU is special AKU, server judges an OTA AKU keeps whether the duration of special AKU is more than or equal to predetermined threshold value.

Wherein, when server detects an OTA AKU for special AKU, Ke Yiji Whether the continuous duration judging an OTA AKU special AKU of holding is more than or equal to default Threshold value.Exemplary, this predetermined threshold value can be preset and configure in an OTA liter One of level bag ageing attribute.

It should be noted that the predetermined threshold value described in the embodiment of the present invention can be answered according to actual It is configured with the demand of scene, the embodiment of the present invention is at this to the concrete value of predetermined threshold value not Do concrete restriction.

103rd, preset when the duration that an OTA AKU keeps special AKU is more than or equal to During threshold value, an OTA AKU is configured to common AKU by server, to need in software When being upgraded to the second edition, configure the 2nd OTA AKU on the server.

Wherein, common AKU refers to software upgrading for all terminal units to currently up-to-date The OTA AKU of version.2nd OTA AKU includes the second edition and current latest edition Between differential file, or the 2nd OTA AKU includes the complete packet of the second edition of software, The second edition is the latest edition needing configuration.

Specifically, in order to when software needs to be upgraded to the second edition, need not be in server The multiple OTA AKUs corresponding with this second edition of upper configuration, when server determines an OTA When AKU keeps the duration of special AKU to be more than or equal to predetermined threshold value, just can by this One OTA AKU is configured to be enough in all terminal units by software upgrading to current latest edition This common AKU, so, when software needs to be upgraded to the second edition, operation maintenance people Member just only need to configure a kind of OTA AKU corresponding with this second edition on the server, i.e. Configure a 2nd OTA AKU on the server.

Exemplary it is assumed that all versions that certain software is issued are respectively：V1、V2、V3、V4、 V5.Accordingly, on server, the OTA AKU of configuration is respectively differential file V2-V1, difference Single cent part V3-V2, differential file V4-V3, differential file V5-V4, and differential file V5-V4 It is special AKU just for Qingdao user that is to say, that only Qingdao user corresponding end End equipment, when initiating software version detection, just can detect current latest edition V5, for non- The corresponding terminal unit of Qingdao user, is only able to detect version V4.Now server can detect It is special AKU to differential file V5-V4, and continue to judge that this differential file V5-V4 keeps The duration of special AKU whether more than or equal to predetermined threshold value (it is assumed that this differential file V5-V4 In comprise ageing attribute, this ageing attribute is corresponding to be worth for 1 day, that is, predetermined threshold value be 1 My god) it is assumed that this differential file V5-V4 keep special AKU when a length of 1 day 01 hours, So, now server can determine that differential file V5-V4 has kept the duration of special AKU More than predetermined threshold value, so, differential file V5-V4 just can be configured to commonly rise by server Level bag, and then, when software needs to be upgraded to V6, operation maintenance personnel just can be directly in clothes A kind of OTA AKU corresponding with V6 of configuration on business device, such as configuration differential file V6-V5.

In embodiments of the present invention, further, the collocation method of this OTA AKU is acceptable Including：When the duration that an OTA AKU keeps special AKU is less than predetermined threshold value, clothes Business device judges whether to need software upgrading to the second edition.

When needing software upgrading to the second edition, an OTA AKU is configured by server For common AKU, to configure the 2nd OTA AKU on the server.

Wherein, in order to only need to configure a kind of feelings of OTA AKU corresponding with this second edition It is ensured that all terminal units can detect highest version under condition, when server determines an OTA When AKU keeps the duration of special AKU to be less than predetermined threshold value, server can continue to judge Whether there is the demand of configuration highest version, that is, judge whether to need by software upgrading to the second edition (i.e. Need the latest edition of configuration), and when determination needs software upgrading to the second edition, take First OTA AKU just can be configured to common AKU, in order to operation maintenance people by business device Member only need to configure a kind of OTA AKU corresponding with this second edition on the server, i.e. One the 2nd OTA AKU is configured on server.

In the first possible application scenarios, when software occur some leaks when, need with In the case of family is unwitting, software is upgraded automatically, therefore, in embodiments of the present invention, Further, as shown in Fig. 2 after step 103, the collocation method of this OTA AKU 104- step 105 can also be comprised the following steps：

104th, server judges whether comprise automatic AKU at least one OTA AKU.

Wherein, described automatic AKU refers to that the version detection not receiving terminal unit please When asking, the OTA AKU that software need to be upgraded.

105th, when comprising automatic AKU at least one OTA AKU, server will be from Dynamic AKU and be in all OTA AKUs before automatic AKU download path send to Terminal unit, so that terminal unit is downloaded automatic AKU and is in the institute before automatic AKU There is OTA AKU.

Wherein, for the scene needing automatic upgrading, server may determine that itself configuration at least When whether being included in the version detection request not receiving terminal unit in one OTA AKU, The OTA AKU that software need to be upgraded, that is, judge at least one OTA AKU be No comprise automatic AKU, and determine at least one OTA AKU in comprise automatic AKU When, all OTA AKUs before this automatic AKU are also changed into " automatic AKU ", Terminal unit can not be forced to upgrade for the OTA AKU after this automatic AKU.

Exemplary it is assumed that the OTA AKU configuring certain software on server is respectively difference literary composition Part V2-V1, complete packet V3, differential file V4-V3, differential file V5-V4, and assume poor Single cent part V4-V3 is to be to repair the automatic AKU that some leaks configure, then service Device detect differential file V4-V3 be automatic AKU after, by differential file V2-V1, The download path of complete packet V3 and differential file V4-V3 sends to terminal unit, so that eventually End equipment can be according to differential file V2-V1, complete packet V3 and differential file V4-V3 Download path downloads differential file V2-V1, complete packet V3 and differential file V4-V3, and then Complete automatically to upgrade.

And, when comprising multiple automatic AKU at least one OTA AKU, server By automatic AKU nearest for the current latest edition of distance in multiple automatic AKUs and can be somebody's turn to do certainly The download path of all OTA AKUs before dynamic AKU sends to terminal unit, so that eventually End equipment download multiple automatic AKUs in the nearest automatic AKU of the current latest edition of distance and It is in all OTA AKUs before this automatic AKU.

In the possible application scenarios of second, under the mechanism wrapping continuous upgrading, for end more The current version of the software installed in end equipment is relatively low, and the latest edition issued on server is relatively High situation, the number of the OTA AKU that client detects may be very many, so, If when the memory space inadequate of terminal unit and/or not enough power supply, terminal unit occurs that upgrading is lost Situation about losing, therefore, in order to avoid the appearance of this situation, in embodiments of the present invention, Further, as shown in figure 3, after step 103, the collocation method of this OTA AKU 106- step 108 can also be comprised the following steps：

106th, the version detection request that server receiving terminal apparatus send.

Wherein, described version detection request includes the version of the current version in terminal unit for the software This number.

107th, when be upgraded to by current version the OTA AKU needed for current latest edition Number more than default maximum chain length when, server according to the version number of current version, from least one The OTA AKU with maximum chain length equivalent number is obtained in individual OTA AKU.

Wherein, all OTA in the described OTA AKU with maximum chain length equivalent number AKU is continuous, and first OTA AKU includes the difference between current version and third edition basis Single cent part, or first OTA AKU include this complete packet of the third edition of software, the 3rd Version high version than current version.

Specifically, when server receives the inclusion software of terminal unit transmission in terminal unit The version number of current version version detection request after, server can first according to software at end The version number of the current version of end equipment and the version number of local current latest edition, determine by Current version be upgraded to the number of the OTA AKU needed for latest edition whether more than default Big chain length, and it is upgraded to the individual of the OTA AKU needed for latest edition by current version in determination When number is more than maximum chain length, server can be according to the version number of current version, from current version Start, obtain OTA AKU from least one OTA AKU, until the OTA getting The number of AKU is equal with maximum chain length.

It should be noted that in embodiments of the present invention, described maximum chain length can be according to reality The demand of border application scenarios is configured, the embodiment of the present invention specifically taking to maximum chain length at this It is worth and be not particularly limited.

108th, server by with each OTA liter in the OTA AKU of maximum chain length equivalent number The download path of level bag sends to terminal unit, so that terminal unit downloads each OTA AKU.

Wherein, get from least one OTA AKU in server equal with maximum chain length After the OTA AKU of number, just can be by the OTA upgrading with maximum chain length equivalent number The download path of each the OTA AKU in bag sends to terminal unit, so, terminal unit OTA AKU with maximum chain length equivalent number can be downloaded according to the download path receiving In each OTA AKU.Further, download to equal with maximum chain length in terminal unit Each OTA AKU in the OTA AKU of number, and after completing this time to upgrade, terminal sets For continuing to send version detection request to server, further obtain OTA AKU, Until by software upgrading on server configuration current latest edition.

Exemplary it is assumed that on server the total number of the OTA AKU of configuration be 20, The number being upgraded to the OTA AKU needed for highest version by minimum version is 20, certain The current version of this software of individual installing terminal equipment is minimum version, and default maximum chain length For 6, then when this terminal unit to server initiate version detection request after, server according to The current latest edition that software configures in the current version server of this terminal unit, determines The OTA AKU being upgraded to by current version needed for current latest edition number be 20, and More than default maximum chain length 6, then server now just can be by before in OTA AKU The download path of 6 OTA AKUs returns to terminal unit, so that the first basis of terminal unit should The download path of 6 OTA AKUs is upgraded it is possible to be continued to send version to server Till detection request is it is known that be upgraded to highest version.

In the third possible application scenarios, in order to compatibility single Bao Sheng of the prior art Terminal unit can be divided into and support the terminal unit of the continuous upgrading of many bags and support list by level strategy The terminal unit of bag upgrading, then, in embodiments of the present invention, further, as Fig. 4 institute Show, after step 103, the collocation method of this OTA AKU can also comprise the following steps 109- step 112：

109th, the version detection request that server receiving terminal apparatus send.

Wherein, described version detection request includes the version of the current version in terminal unit for the software This number and the product type of terminal unit.

110th, server obtains the 3rd OTA AKU according to product type.

Wherein, the 3rd OTA AKU includes the differential file between current version and third edition basis, Or the 3rd OTA AKU includes this complete packet of the third edition of software, the third edition this than current The high version of version.

Specifically, when server receives the version detection request of terminal unit transmission, permissible According to the product type of the terminal unit comprising in the request of this version detection, obtain and include current version This and than current version a high version differential file between this for the third edition, or include soft 3rd OTA AKU of this complete packet of the third edition of the high version of ratio current version of part.

111st, server, according to the configuration parameter of the 3rd OTA AKU, determines that terminal unit props up Hold wrap continuously to upgrade more.

Wherein, server, can be according to the 3rd after getting the 3rd OTA AKU Configuration parameter in OTA AKU, determines that this terminal unit is to support the ends wrapping continuous upgrading more End equipment, or support the terminal unit of single bag upgrading, and support, in determination terminal unit, wrap more Continuous upgrading, when that is, determination terminal unit is to support the terminal unit wrapping and continuously upgrading more, execution Following steps 112.If server determines that terminal unit supports single bag upgrading, that is, determine terminal unit When being the terminal unit supporting single bag upgrading, can be directly by the download road of the 3rd OTA AKU Footpath returns to terminal unit, so that terminal unit is according to by the download path of the 3rd OTA AKU Download the 3rd OTA AKU, and upgraded.

Exemplary, can configure different in advance in terminal unit corresponding OTA AKU Upgrade mode (this upgrade mode is configuration parameter), upgrade mode can include singly wrapping upgrading Wrap continuous upgrading with more, and for an OTA AKU, only can support a kind of upgrading mould Formula, i.e. be the terminal units supporting the continuous upgrading of many bags for terminal unit, its corresponding OTA All comprise occurrence in AKU is the configuration parameter wrapping continuous upgrading more, and for terminal unit For supporting the terminal unit of single bag upgrading, all comprising occurrence in its corresponding OTA AKU is The configuration parameter of single bag upgrading, so that server judges that this terminal unit is to support to wrap continuous liter more The terminal unit of level, or support the terminal unit of single bag upgrading.

112nd, server obtains OTA AKU set, and will be all in OTA AKU set The download path of OTA AKU sends to terminal unit, so that terminal unit downloads OTA upgrading Bag set.

Wherein, the set of OTA AKU includes being upgraded to current latest edition institute by current version The OTA AKU needing.When server determines that terminal unit supports the continuous upgrading of many bags, just may be used To continue to obtain OTA AKU, include being upgraded to current latest edition by current version to obtain The OTA AKU set of required OTA AKU, and getting OTA AKU set Afterwards, the download path of all OTA AKUs in this OTA AKU set was sent to end End equipment, so that terminal unit downloads OTA AKU set, and then by software from current version It is upgraded to current latest edition.

In embodiments of the present invention, in order to, on the premise of the upgrading that assures success, reducing and sending out Deliver to the number of the OTA AKU of terminal unit, the acquisition OTA liter described in step 112 Level bag set specifically can include：

Server obtains by all OTA AKUs of current version to current latest edition, obtains The first set of OTA AKU, and judge whether deposit in the OTA AKU that first set comprises OTA AKU in the complete packet of the corresponding version including software；Include the right of software when existing Answer version the OTA AKU of complete packet when, the complete of corresponding version including software will be in All OTA AKUs after the OTA AKU of bag are complete with the corresponding version including software The OTA AKU of whole bag forms described OTA AKU set.

And, the complete packet for the corresponding versions including multiple inclusion softwares in first set OTA AKU situation, can be by the complete packet of this multiple corresponding version including softwares All OTA after the nearest OTA AKU of the current latest edition of distance in OTA AKU AKU is upgraded apart from the nearest described OTA of OTA AKU composition of current latest edition with this Bag set.For example, OTA AKU is respectively differential file V2-V1, complete packet V3, difference File V4-V3, differential file V5-V4, complete packet V6, differential file V7-V6, difference literary composition Part V8-V7, then the final first set determining is complete packet V6, differential file V7-V6, Differential file V8-V7.

Exemplary it is assumed that the OTA AKU configuring certain software on server is respectively difference literary composition Part V2-V1, complete packet V3, differential file V4-V3, differential file V5-V4, and server Software the working as in terminal unit that the version detection request that the terminal unit receiving sends includes The version number of front version is V1, then server can first obtain by current version V1 to currently All OTA AKUs of latest edition V5, obtain the first set of OTA AKU, and this One set includes differential file V2-V1, complete packet V3, differential file V4-V3, differential file V5-V4, then, judges to whether there is the complete of the corresponding version including software in this first set The OTA AKU of bag, that is, the full bag of certain version of software is it may be determined that deposit in first set In the OTA AKU of the complete packet of the corresponding version including software, i.e. complete packet V3, then Server just can be only by under complete packet V3, differential file V4-V3, differential file V5-V4 Carry path to send to terminal unit.

And, in a kind of possible application scenarios, in order to avoid upgrading using differential file Now upgrade failure situation occur, in some cases, except configuring differential file in the server Outside it is also possible to the complete packet of corresponding some versions of configuration software in the server, now, In the case that this version had not only been configured with complete packet but also had been configured with differential file, preferentially set to terminal The standby upgrade file chain returning the differential file comprising this version.

For the ease of the understanding of those skilled in the art, answering for above-mentioned all possible presence With scene, the embodiment of the present invention is illustrated to the process that implements of the present invention at this.

For example, on server issue certain software all versions be A, B, C, D, E, F, The OTA upgrading of configuration on G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, and server Bag is respectively：Differential file A-B, complete packet C, differential file C-D, differential file D-E, Differential file E-F, differential file F-G, differential file G-H, complete packet H, differential file H-I, complete packet J, differential file J-K, differential file K-L, differential file L-M, difference literary composition Part M-N, differential file N-O, differential file O-P, differential file P-Q, this software is in terminal The current version of equipment is A, default maximum chain a length of 7, and wherein, differential file P-Q is only Special AKU for Shanghai user.

Server first detects whether differential file P-Q is special AKU, then, poor determining After single cent part P-Q is special AKU, judge that differential file P-Q keeps special AKU Duration whether is more than or equal to predetermined threshold value it is assumed that differential file P-Q keeps special AKU Duration be more than predetermined threshold value, then this differential file P-Q just can be configured to general by server Logical AKU, can be upgraded to highest version Q in order to all of terminal unit.

Further, server can detect and whether there is automatic liter in all of OTA AKU It is assumed that there is not automatic AKU in all of OTA AKU in level bag, then now server It is left intact it is assumed that the differential file F-G in OTA AKU is automatic AKU, that Now, server can be by differential file A-B, complete packet C, differential file C-D, difference File D-E, differential file E-F, the download path of differential file F-G send to terminal unit, So that terminal unit is by software upgrading to version G.Certainly, server can also further really Surely comprise complete packet C in the OTA AKU that need to return, before now can giving up complete packet OTA AKU that is to say, that server may finally to terminal unit return complete packet C, Under differential file C-D, differential file D-E, differential file E-F and differential file F-G Carry path.

Further, the version detection request that server receiving terminal apparatus send, and comprise soft The version number A of the current version in terminal unit for the part, now server can first obtain difference literary composition Part A-B, and judge whether this terminal unit is supported according to the configuration parameter of this differential file A-B Wrap continuously is upgraded more.If it is determined that this terminal unit supports that wrap continuously is upgraded more, then judge by current Whether version A is upgraded to the number of the OTA AKU needed for highest version Q more than maximum chain Long 7 it may be determined that go out the OTA AKU being upgraded to needed for highest version Q by current version A Number 17 be more than maximum chain length 7, then server can obtain 7 OTA AKUs, and This 7 OTA AKUs are continuous, and first OTA AKU is necessary for differential file A-B. So, 7 OTA AKUs of acquisition are respectively differential file A-B, complete packet C, difference File C-D, differential file D-E, differential file E-F, differential file F-G, differential file G-H. In addition, server also detects that is configured with complete packet H in server, big due to differential file Less than complete packet, therefore, download the duration of AKU and save end to reduce terminal unit The electricity of end equipment, can return differential file A-B, complete packet C, differential file with prioritizing selection C-D, differential file D-E, differential file E-F, differential file F-G, differential file G-H. Then server, it is also determined that there is complete packet C in 7 OTA AKUs, now can be given up OTA AKU before complete packet that is to say, that final determine return to terminal unit OTA AKU includes：Complete packet C, differential file C-D, differential file D-E, difference literary composition Part E-F, differential file F-G, differential file G-H.So server just can by complete packet C, Differential file C-D, differential file D-E, differential file E-F, differential file F-G, difference literary composition The download path of part G-H sends to terminal unit, so that terminal unit downloads OTA AKU simultaneously Complete this time to upgrade.Further, terminal unit can also initiate version detection request again, And said process is repeated by server so that the most at last software upgrading to highest version Q.

The collocation method of the OTA AKU that the present invention provides, server detects an OTA first Whether AKU is to can be only used for section terminating equipment by software upgrading to current latest edition Special AKU, and when an OTA AKU is detected for special AKU, continue to judge First OTA AKU keeps whether the duration of special AKU is more than or equal to predetermined threshold value, Then it is more than or equal to default threshold in the duration determining an OTA AKU special AKU of holding During value, an OTA AKU is configured to be enough in all terminal units by software upgrading Common AKU to current latest edition.So, with respect to prior art, server passes through It is special AKU in an OTA AKU, and keep the duration of special AKU to be more than or wait When predetermined threshold value, an OTA AKU is configured to common AKU so that in software When needing to configure highest version, it is corresponding that server need not configure multiple highest versions with the configuration of this needs OTA AKU, and then avoid server receiving terminal unit software version detect When, get is upgraded to upgrading needed for latest edition by software in the current version of terminal unit The not unique problem of file chain occurs, and ensures that terminal unit can be by software from current version Originally it is upgraded to latest edition, improve Consumer's Experience.

And, by the maximum chain length of setting so that when the current version of terminal unit is relatively low, Can first from server fetching portion OTA AKU, it is to avoid all OTA of disposable acquisition The situation of the upgrading failure that AKU may lead to occurs, thus reducing the risk of upgrading failure, Further increase Consumer's Experience.By configuration upgrading mode in OTA AKU so that can With to supporting the terminal units wrapping continuous upgrading to return multiple OTA AKUs it is achieved that and existing more There is the compatibility of single bag escalation policy.
