Description
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to an over-the-air upgrading method, an over-the-air server and a terminal.
Background
Over the Air Technology (OTA) is a Technology for downloading data through a wireless network, and is now widely used in network upgrade of devices such as smart televisions, mobile phones, tablet computers, and set-top boxes. The user downloads the differential file aiming at the current software version of the client provided by the server and updates the differential file to the current software version in a patching mode, so that the OTA is upgraded. Usually, the differential file only contains file information that needs to be upgraded, for example, the differential file V2-V1 only contains application information that the version V2 changes relative to the version V1, and if the upgrade is implemented by the differential file V2-V1, the current version of the client must contain important files of V1.
Generally, a terminal device manufacturer, such as a smartphone manufacturer, will sort the problems encountered during the use of a user and feedback opinions, and then develop product software again to form an upgraded version so as to modify the problems existing in the existing version. In order to facilitate a user to solve the problem of system upgrading by himself, a mobile terminal manufacturer compresses the system upgrading version with the repaired problem into an OTA upgrading packet to be placed on an OTA server, and the user downloads and upgrades the system upgrading packet by himself. In the OTA upgrading process, the terminal initiates a version inquiry request to the OTA server to inquire whether the OTA server has a high-level version, if so, the OTA server returns the upgradable state and the version information higher than the current version of the terminal. And if the user decides to upgrade, the OTA server pushes the address of the current upgradable version, the terminal downloads the differential upgrade package according to the address, and the upgrade is automatically performed after the download is finished.
However, the differential upgrade package downloaded by the terminal may not be compatible with the terminal, for example, due to a bug (bug) made by the differential upgrade package, the bug is not discovered during the test solution; as another example, the setting of the terminal is not compatible with the setting of the differential upgrade package, and the like. After the OTA is upgraded, the incompatible differential upgrade packet causes the terminal to be invalid and can not be used again.

All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and the like in the description and in the claims, as well as in the drawings, if any, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the invention described herein are, for example, capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements expressly listed, but may include other steps or elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
Before explaining the embodiments of the present invention in detail, an application scenario of the embodiments of the present invention will be described. The method provided by the embodiment of the invention is applied to version upgrade of the terminal, and for example, the method provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied to OTA differential upgrade of a software version in the terminal and can also be applied to OTA differential upgrade of a terminal system version, such as OTA differential upgrade of an IOS system version, OTA differential upgrade of an Android system version and the like. By way of example, the terminal according to the embodiment of the invention may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a smart television, a smart wearable device, or the like.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an OTA upgrading method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where an execution main body of the OTA upgrading method according to the embodiment of the present invention is a terminal, and referring to fig. 1, the method includes:
101. the over-the-air OTA server determines the upgrade success rate.
The embodiment of the invention is suitable for version differential upgrading of software, system version differential upgrading of a terminal and the like. In this step, the OTA server determines an upgrade success rate, and the upgrade success rate is used to indicate a probability of successfully upgrading from the current version to the target version. In a feasible implementation manner, a user queries whether a high version, namely a target version, higher than a current version exists through a terminal, at this time, the user sends a version query request to an OTA server through the terminal used by the user, the version query request carries version information, such as a version number and the like, of the current version, namely the current version of the terminal, and when the OTA server determines whether the target version higher than the current version exists, the OTA server determines that the terminal is successfully upgraded to upgrade success power from the current version to the target version. In another feasible implementation manner, the server periodically acquires the version information of the terminal, and when the server judges that the version information of the terminal is lower than the version information on the server, the success rate of upgrading is determined. Specifically, the OTA server traverses all the stored versions and determines whether a target version higher than the current version exists. If the terminal does not exist, the OTA server sends an indication message which does not need to be upgraded to the terminal; otherwise, determining the upgrade success rate of the terminal which can be successfully upgraded to the target version. In the determining process, the upgrading success rate can be determined according to the upgrading times of other terminals by using the differential upgrading packet, the upgrading times of the current version to the target version by using the differential upgrading packet and the like.
For example, when the target version on the OTA server is higher than the current version of the terminal, the OTA server determines a first ratio of a second variable to a first variable, and takes the first ratio as an upgrade success rate, wherein the first variable is used for indicating the number of times of upgrading by using a differential upgrade package; the second variable is used to indicate the number of times the differential upgrade package is used to successfully upgrade from the current version to the target version.
It should be noted that, in addition to the OTA server determining the upgrade success rate, the terminal itself may also determine the upgrade success rate. For example, the OTA server sends the first variable and the second variable to the terminal, and the terminal determines the upgrade success rate according to the variables, that is, when the target version on the OTA server is higher than the current version of the terminal, the upgrade success rate sent by the OTA server to the terminal may be a first ratio of the second variable to the first variable, or may be the second variable to the first variable, and the terminal determines the first ratio of the second variable to the first variable according to the second variable and the first variable.
102. And the OTA server sends the upgrade success rate to the terminal.
The OTA server sends the upgrade success rate to the terminal when the target version on the OTA server is higher than the current version of the terminal.
It should be noted that, when the target version on the OTA server is higher than the current version of the terminal, the OTA server may send an upgrade success rate to the terminal, and may also send an upgrade reminding message to the terminal, for reminding the user that the current version of the terminal is lower than the target version on the OTA server.
103. And the terminal determines whether to upgrade or not according to the upgrade success rate.
In this step, the terminal determines whether upgrading is required according to the upgrading success rate. Specifically, the terminal may preset a threshold to determine whether upgrading is required or not, or determine whether upgrading is required according to the operation of the user. When the terminal automatically determines whether upgrading is needed according to a preset threshold value, the terminal is provided with the preset threshold value, the terminal determines whether the upgrading success rate is higher than the preset threshold value, if the upgrading success rate is higher than the preset threshold value, upgrading is needed, otherwise, upgrading is not needed; when the terminal determines whether upgrading is needed according to the operation of a user, the terminal is a terminal with a display screen, the upgrading success rate is displayed on the display screen, if the user considers that the upgrading success rate is high, preset operation is carried out on the display screen, if clicking, double clicking and the like are carried out, when the terminal detects the preset operation acted on the display screen by the user, upgrading is determined, otherwise, if the user considers that the upgrading success rate is low, the display screen is not operated, and when the terminal detects the preset operation within a certain time, upgrading is carried out 105 and abandoned.
104. If the terminal determines to upgrade, downloading the differential upgrade package;
and after the fact that upgrading is needed is determined, the terminal downloads the differential upgrading package and carries out upgrading.
105. The upgrade is abandoned.
Specifically, when it is determined that upgrade is to be abandoned, the terminal does not download the differential upgrade package.
According to the OTA upgrading method provided by the embodiment of the invention, after the terminal receives the upgrading success power sent by the OTA server, the upgrading success power is used for indicating the probability of successfully upgrading the current version to the target version, whether the upgrading is carried out or not is further determined according to the upgrading success power, and when the upgrading is needed, the differential upgrading packet is downloaded and the upgrading is carried out. In the process, the upgrading success rate can indicate the probability that the terminal successfully upgrades the current version to the target version by using the differential upgrading packet, so that the terminal can accurately make the decision of whether to upgrade or not according to the upgrading success rate, and the problem that the OTA upgrading user experience is reduced due to terminal failure caused by OTA upgrading is effectively avoided.
In the above embodiment, the first variable is used to indicate the number of times of upgrading using the differential upgrade package; the second variable is used to indicate the number of times the differential upgrade package is used to successfully upgrade from the current version to the target version. In order to ensure the accuracy of the variables, the variables also need to be updated. Specifically, if the terminal determines to upgrade, after downloading the differential upgrade package, the terminal also sends upgrade information to the OTA server, so that the OTA server updates the upgrade success rate according to the upgrade information, and the upgrade information is used for indicating whether the terminal is upgraded successfully. Wherein, the condition of unsuccessful upgrade includes unsuccessful download of the differential upgrade package, successful download of the differential upgrade package but failed upgrade; the case of successful upgrade includes successful download of the differential upgrade package and successful upgrade.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, before the differential upgrade package is pushed to the user, large-scale trial and test are performed inside the differential upgrade package, so that the OTA server must have about thousands of upgrade records. Therefore, when the first user initiates an OTA request, the OTA server determines a first variable as the number of times the differential upgrade package is used for upgrading in the trial and test phase, and a second variable as the number of times the differential upgrade package is successfully upgraded from the current version to the target version in the trial and test phase. Certainly, when the first user initiates the OTA request, the OTA server may not have the upgrade success rate information corresponding to the differential upgrade packet, that is, the first variable and the second variable are 0.
The OTA upgrade method described above is described in detail below with reference to a specific embodiment. In particular, see fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a signaling diagram of a second embodiment of the OTA upgrading method according to the present invention, which includes:
201. and the terminal sends a version inquiry request to the OTA server.
202. And the OTA server determines whether a target version exists according to the version inquiry request. If not, go to 203; otherwise, execute 204
203. And the OTA server sends an indication message without upgrading to the terminal.
204. The OTA server sends an upgradable indication message to the terminal.
205. The OTA server determines the upgrade success rate.
In this step, the OTA server interacts with a database (not shown in the figure), and obtains the number of times (i.e., a first variable) that the differential upgrade package is used to upgrade, the number of times (i.e., a second variable) that the differential upgrade package is used to successfully upgrade from the current version to the target version, and the like in history or a certain period. Then, an upgrade success rate is determined according to the variables. The database may be a local database of the server or a remote database.
It should be noted that, in step 205, the OTA server determines the upgrade success rate by determining the first variable and the second variable. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other feasible manners, the upgrade success rate may be determined in other manners, for example, the number of times that the terminal, including the terminal currently used by the user, and the terminal communicating with the OTA server during a certain period apply to download the differential upgrade package is used as a third variable, and the upgrade success rate is determined by determining a ratio of the second variable to the third variable.
In addition, it should be noted that, in the above steps 201 to 205, the triggering condition for triggering the OTA server to determine the upgrade success rate is that the terminal sends a version query request to the OTA server, and the server determines that the target version exists. However, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this, and in other possible implementation manners, the OTA server may autonomously and periodically determine whether a target version higher than the current version of the terminal exists, and if so, determine to increase the power level.
206. And the OTA server sends the upgrade success rate to the terminal.
207. The terminal determines whether to upgrade according to the upgrade success rate, and if not, 208 is executed; otherwise, 209 is performed.
In the embodiment of the invention, the terminal determines whether the upgrade is needed according to the relationship between the preset threshold value set by the terminal and the upgrade success rate or the operation performed by the user according to the upgrade success rate. Next, the following describes in detail by taking an example that the terminal determines whether the upgrade is needed according to a relationship between a preset threshold set by the terminal and the upgrade success rate.
In a possible implementation manner, if the first ratio (i.e., the upgrade success rate) of the second variable to the first variable exceeds the preset threshold in step 205, it indicates that the probability of successfully upgrading from the current version to the target version using the differential upgrade package is high, and the version can be upgraded, and then the current version is upgraded to the target version according to the differential upgrade package; otherwise, the probability that the differential upgrade package is used for successfully upgrading the current version to the target version is low, that is, the differential upgrade package is likely to fail in version upgrading, so that the terminal is disabled, and the user is advised not to upgrade. For example, the number of times that a terminal, including a terminal currently used by a user, and a terminal communicating with an OTA server within a certain period is upgraded using a differential upgrade package is 20, while the number of times that the terminal successfully upgrades from a current version to a target version using the differential upgrade package is only 2, if a preset threshold is 0.25, since a first ratio of a second variable to a first variable is 0.1, it indicates that, after more terminals download the differential upgrade package, in the process of upgrading the current version to the target version using the differential upgrade package, an error occurs to cause a version upgrade failure, and at this time, the terminal may decide not to upgrade.
In the above implementation manner, if the first ratio (i.e., the upgrade success rate) of the second variable and the first variable by the OTA server in step 205 exceeds the preset threshold, it indicates that the differential upgrade packet meets the requirement, and the OTA server can be upgraded, and then upgraded from the current version to the target version according to the differential upgrade packet; otherwise, the quality of the differential upgrade package is poor, and the user is advised not to upgrade. For example, the number of times that the terminal, including the terminal currently used by the user and the terminal communicating with the OTA server within a certain period, is upgraded using the differential upgrade package is 10 times, while the number of times that the terminal successfully upgrades from the current version to the target version using the differential upgrade package is 7 times, if the preset threshold is 0.6, since the ratio of the second variable to the first variable (i.e., the upgrade success rate) is 0.7, it is indicated that the terminal is upgraded using the differential upgrade package, and the upgrade failure probability is small, so that the terminal can be upgraded.
In another possible implementation manner, if the second ratio (i.e., the upgrade success rate) of the third variable and the second variable exceeds the preset threshold in step 205, it indicates that the reliability of the communication link is high, and the version upgrade can be performed, that is, the differential upgrade packet can be downloaded, and then the current version is upgraded to the target version according to the differential upgrade packet; otherwise, the quality of the communication link is poor, the user is advised not to upgrade, version upgrading failure caused by downloading failure in the process of downloading the differential upgrading packet by the user is avoided, and meanwhile, the waste of flow caused by downloading failure by the user can be effectively avoided. For example, the terminal includes a terminal currently used by a user, and the number of times of applying for downloading the differential upgrade package to the OTA server within a certain period is 20, the number of times of using the differential upgrade package for upgrading is only 2, if the preset threshold is 0.25, because the ratio of the third variable to the second variable is 0.1, it indicates that some terminals do not find that upgrading is not needed after trying to download the differential upgrade package, or the differential upgrade package is difficult to download due to a network problem, and the downloading may cause abnormal consumption of traffic and abnormal occupation of memory, and the like, and at this time, the terminal may decide not to perform upgrading.
It should be noted that, in step 205, the OTA server may also send the first variable or the third variable and the second variable to the terminal, so that the terminal may determine whether the version upgrade is required according to any one of the variables. Alternatively, the variables are combined to determine whether a version upgrade is required.
208. The current flow is ended.
209. And the terminal sends an upgrading request to the OTA server.
In this step, the terminal sends an upgrade request to the OTA server to apply for downloading the differential upgrade package.
210. And the OTA server adds 1 to the third variable to update the third variable, and stores the updated third variable in the database.
211. And the OTA server sends the download address of the differential upgrade package to the terminal.
In this step, the OTA server pushes the download address of the differential upgrade package to the OTA server.
212. And the terminal downloads the differential upgrade package according to the download address.
Specifically, the terminal sends a differential upgrade package download request to the OTA server, and the OTA server sends the differential upgrade package to the terminal.
213. And the terminal sends a successful downloading response message to the OTA server.
In this step, the terminal sends a successful download response message to the OTA server after the differential upgrade package is successfully downloaded.
214. And the terminal carries out version upgrading according to the differential upgrading packet.
In this step, the terminal upgrades from the current version to the target version according to the differential upgrade package.
215. And the OTA server adds 1 to the first variable to update the first variable, and stores the updated first variable in the database.
In step 214, the terminal uses the downloaded differential upgrade package to upgrade, and at this time, the OTA server adds 1 to the first variable used for indicating the number of times of upgrading using the differential upgrade package, thereby updating the first variable.
216. The terminal determines whether the version upgrading is successfully carried out, if the version upgrading is not successfully carried out, 217 is carried out; otherwise, 218 is performed.
217. And the terminal sends an upgrade failure message to the OTA server.
218. And the terminal sends an upgrading success indication message to the OTA server.
219. And the OTA server adds 1 to the second variable to update the second variable, and stores the updated second variable in the database.
Step 218 illustrates that the terminal successfully upgrades from the current version to the target version using the differential upgrade package, and at this time, the OTA server adds 1 to the second variable indicating the number of times of successfully upgrading from the current version to the target version using the differential upgrade package, thereby updating the second variable.
It should be noted that, since the upgrade success rate is determined according to the first variable and the second variable, or the second variable and the third variable, the upgrade success rate can be finally updated by updating the first variable, the second variable, and the third variable.
