Detailed Description
Because the processing procedure of the protocol conversion method in the related art is complex, how to design a simple and efficient protocol conversion method is a main problem in the design and application of the internet of things gateway. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and do not limit the invention.
The present embodiment provides a data or signaling sending method, which may be implemented on a device side, and fig. 1 is a flowchart of a data or signaling sending method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps (step S102-step S106):
step S102, the main processor receives the data or signaling of the current sub-processor and converts the data or signaling into the data or signaling with the intermediate format;
step S104, the main processor processes the data or signaling in the intermediate format to obtain the data or signaling result in the intermediate format; converting the data or signaling result in the intermediate format into target data or signaling; wherein, the target data or signaling follows the target protocol of the target sub-processor;
and step S106, the main processor sends the target data or the signaling to the target sub-processor.
By the method, the problem that a protocol conversion method in the related technology is complex to process is solved, so that data or signaling conversion between the sensing network and the traditional communication network and among various sensing networks is quickly and simply realized, and the data or signaling formats from different sensing networks and the traditional communication network are shielded by means of a unified intermediate format, so that the method has low processing complexity and good expansibility.
In order to simply and efficiently realize data or signaling conversion between the sensing network and the traditional communication network, the current sub-processor in the embodiment can be a downward sub-processor, and the target sub-processor can be an upward sub-processor; alternatively, the current sub-processor is an upward sub-processor, and the target sub-processor is a downward sub-processor. In order to implement data or signaling conversion between various sensing networks simply and efficiently, both the current sub-processor and the target sub-processor in this embodiment may be downward sub-processors.
The following describes the lower sub-processor and the upper sub-processor, respectively.
And the downward sub-processor refers to a processor which interacts with various sensing layer network nodes. Due to the diversity of the layer-aware network, the gateway may have multiple sub-processors down, such as a radio frequency processor in communication with the wireless sensor network, an RFID receive processor in communication with the RFID node, and so on.
The upward sub-processor is a processor for connecting the gateway upward to the Internet (Internet) or a mobile communication network. The upward connection may be a wired network such as xDSL (which is a generic term for various types of Digital Subscriber Lines (DSLs)), or a wireless network such as General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) of a 2G network, a 3G network, a 4th generation (4G) network, or Wi-Fi. The gateway should configure one or several upward subprocessors corresponding to the network according to the network providing situation and upward transmission flow situation of the application. Such as an ethernet controller accessing the Internet, a GPRS module accessing a mobile communication network, etc.
The main processor in this embodiment is configured to complete conversion between two types of protocols supported by the upper sub-processor and the lower sub-processor, where the protocol conversion is mainly divided into two aspects, namely data conversion and signaling conversion. Protocol conversion refers to converting one party's data or signaling format into another party's recognizable data or signaling format, and transmitting to the other party completely and correctly.
The three-layer processors (the main processor, the downward processor and the upward processor) carry out information interaction through two types of interfaces: a class a interface and a class B interface. The following describes the class a interface and the class B interface, respectively.
The class a interface refers to a communication interface between the main processor and the lower sub-processor. The class a interface should have two characteristics: (1) the interface should have universality and standardization, including hardware and communication protocol, that is, various downward sub-processors can communicate with the main processor through the unified interface, and the sub-processors can communicate with each other directly or indirectly through the main processor; (2) the interface should be extensible, for example, a gateway with only sub-processor a can be externally connected with a module with sub-processor b, so that the gateway can allow the sub-processor b to support the access of the sensing network, thereby expanding the sensing access capability of the gateway. Assuming that the module with sub-processor b is referred to as an extension module, such extension module may still communicate with the main processor through the above-mentioned class a interface.
Therefore, the class a interface is actually a multi-processor or multi-chip communication interface, and the communication mode generally adopted is serial communication, a main processor and a downward sub-processor perform serial communication in a master-slave mode, and the communication speed/baud rate is defined by a user or a certain standard organization. In addition, an application requirement is possible, that is, the expansion module may be directly connected to a computer, and the expansion module and the computer together complete the function of the gateway of the Internet of things (that is, the computer serves as a main processor and an upward sub-processor of the gateway, and the upward access to the Internet is in an ethernet or Wi-Fi manner), so the expansion module should have a USB interface, and therefore, the type a interface may be considered to be a USB interface, or the type a interface may be converted into a USB interface in some manner.
The B-type interface is a communication interface between the main processor and the upward sub-processor. The interface technology is mature at present, and the types of the interfaces are more. For example, if the gateway uses xDSL wired access to the Internet, the upper processor may be an ethernet controller, and the interface between the main processor and the ethernet controller may use a high-speed bus (including data lines, address lines, and control lines), or may use a low-speed serial communication (including transmit lines, receive lines, and control lines). If the gateway adopts GPRS to access the Internet, the upper sub-processor is a GPRS module/processor, and the interface between the main processor and the GPRS module/processor adopts a serial communication mode. If the gateway accesses the Internet in a Wi-Fi mode, the upward sub-processor is a Wi-Fi module/processor, and an interface between the main processor and the Wi-Fi module/processor can be in a bus mode or a serial communication mode.
Based on the above description of the class a interface and the class B interface, this embodiment provides a preferred implementation manner to improve the practicability and the application range of the data or signaling sending method. Namely, the main processor carries out data or signaling interaction with the downward subprocessor through a first interface (namely, the A-type interface); the main processor carries out data or signaling interaction with the upper sub-processor through a second interface (namely the B-type interface); the first interface is a serial communication interface or a USB interface; the second interface is a serial communication interface or a bus interface.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a hardware main body architecture of a multi-protocol gateway according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 2, hardware related to a protocol conversion function on the gateway mainly includes three layers: the system comprises a main processor, a downward sub-processor and an upward sub-processor. The main processor and the downward sub-processor carry out data or signaling interaction through an A-type interface, and the main processor and the upward sub-processor carry out data or signaling interaction through a B-type interface.
The main purpose of the method for sending data or signaling described in this embodiment is to convert data or signaling conforming to the protocol of the current sub-processor into data or signaling conforming to the intermediate format through protocol conversion, and then convert the data or signaling conforming to the protocol of the target sub-processor into data or signaling conforming to the protocol of the target sub-processor through protocol conversion. In short, it is the conversion of one party's data or signaling format into a data or signaling format that the other party can recognize.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a software main body architecture of a multi-protocol gateway according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 3, there are three software main bodies related to protocol conversion on the gateway: a series protocol, B series protocol, intermediate format. In addition, two processes of protocol conversion 1 and protocol conversion 2 exist between the a-series protocol and the B-series protocol and the intermediate format respectively.
The A series of protocols refer to a sensing layer network protocol running/loaded on a downward sub-processor, such as a ZigBee protocol of a wireless sensor network or other custom protocols.
The B-series protocol refers to a conventional communication network protocol running/loaded on the upward sub-processor, such as an ethernet protocol stack on an ethernet controller, and a GPRS protocol stack on a GSM module.
The intermediate format is a standard signaling format and data format which are run/loaded on a main processor, and the A-series protocol and the B-series protocol are converted into the standard signaling format and data format before signaling and data interaction. This conversion process is the protocol conversion 1 and the protocol conversion 2 shown in fig. 3. The implementers of protocol conversion 1 and protocol conversion 2 are the host processors in the gateways.
Protocol conversion 1, which refers to a process in which, when each downward sub-processor sends its data or signaling following the a-series protocol to the main processor through the a-type interface, the main processor converts the data or signaling into an intermediate format, and a reverse process of the process.
Protocol conversion 2, which refers to a process in which when each upward sub-processor sends its data or signaling following the B-series protocol to the main processor through the B-type interface, the main processor converts the data or signaling into an intermediate format, and a reverse process of the process.
In this embodiment, the main processor includes a protocol processing module, which is used to convert data or signaling into data or signaling in an intermediate format and vice versa, and preferably, the protocol processing module includes a data processing unit or a signaling processing unit, and the two units respectively perform conversion operations on the data or signaling. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of protocol conversion according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 4, three a-series protocols are listed in fig. 4: a1, a2, A3, and three B-series protocols B1, B2, B3. The protocol a1 and the conversion of the intermediate format will be explained. When the data or signaling of protocol a1 reaches the host processor through the class a interface, the host processor analyzes the protocol type of the data or signaling, and then transfers the data or signaling to the protocol processing module TA1 according to the protocol type, and the protocol processing module TA1 converts the data or signaling into the data or signaling in the intermediate format.
Then, the main processor processes the data or signaling in the intermediate format to obtain a result of the data or signaling in the intermediate format, and determines the protocol type of the target sub-processor (assuming that the protocol is the protocol B1), and the protocol processing module TB1 corresponding to the protocol type converts the result of the data or signaling in the intermediate format into data or signaling conforming to the protocol B1.
Similarly, the processing manner of the protocol a2 and the protocol A3 is the same as that of the protocol a1 described above, and is not described herein again.
Based on the protocol conversion flow described in fig. 4, this embodiment provides a preferred implementation manner, that is, the converting, by the host processor, data or signaling into data or signaling in an intermediate format includes: the main processor determines the protocol type of the current sub-processor, and converts the data or signaling into data or signaling in an intermediate format by adopting a conversion mode corresponding to the protocol type. The step of converting the intermediate format data or signaling result into target data or signaling by the main processor comprises the following steps: the main processor determines the target protocol type of the target sub-processor, and converts the data or signaling result in the intermediate format into target data or signaling by adopting a conversion mode corresponding to the target protocol type. By the method, the data or signaling conversion process is simplified, and the data or signaling conversion efficiency and accuracy are improved.
The method of implementing the invention will be further explained and illustrated with reference to the drawings and the preferred embodiments.
This embodiment describes a process of generating data or signaling for the downward sub-processor a1, processing the data by the main processor and sending the signaling to the upward sub-processor B1, and fig. 5 is a flow chart of data interaction from the downward sub-processor to the upward sub-processor according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 5, the flow chart includes the following steps (step S502-step S514):
in step S502, the downward sub-processor a1 sends data or signaling to the main processor through the class a interface.
In step S504, the host processor analyzes the protocol type of the data or signaling (assuming that the data or signaling complies with protocol a 1), and transfers the data or signaling to the protocol processing module TA1 corresponding to protocol a 1.
Step S506, the protocol processing module TA1 in the main processor calls the corresponding data processing module/signaling processing module to convert the data or signaling into data or signaling in the intermediate format.
In this step, the protocol processing module TA1 determines whether the input is data or signaling, and if the input is data, calls the data processing module to process the data and converts the data into data in an intermediate format; if the signaling is the signaling, a signaling processing module is called to process the signaling and convert the signaling into the signaling with the intermediate format.
Step S508, the main processor processes the data or signaling in the intermediate format to generate a result of the data or signaling in the intermediate format.
In step S510, the main processor determines the protocol type (assumed to be protocol B1) of the target sub-processor (assumed to be the upper sub-processor B1), and transfers the data or signaling result in the intermediate format to the protocol processing module TB1 corresponding to protocol B1.
Step S512, the protocol processing module TB1 in the main processor calls the corresponding data processing module/signaling processing module to convert the data or signaling result in the intermediate format into data or signaling conforming to the protocol B1.
In the step, the protocol processing module TB1 determines whether the input is data or signaling, and if the input is data, calls the data processing module to process the input, and converts the data result in the intermediate format into target data conforming to the protocol B1; if the signaling is the signaling, the signaling processing module is called to process the input, and the signaling result in the intermediate format is converted into target signaling conforming to the protocol B1.
In step S514, the main processor transmits data or signaling conforming to the protocol B1 to the upper sub-processor B1 through the class B interface.
