For example: in a meter reading network, when a master node sends data to a slave node, a wake-up code must be first sent, and the data is sent only at the tail end of the wake-up code, for the slave node, the data can be received only after the wake-up code is continuously received, the time for sending the wake-up code is generally longer, and the sending time is unequal, so that the slave node inevitably receives the wake-up code for a longer time, the power consumption loss is increased, and the service life of a battery is reduced; similarly, when the slave node transmits data to the master node, power consumption of the master node is also lost.

Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like or similar reference numerals refer to the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar function throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are illustrative only for the purpose of explaining the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
Example one
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 illustrates an implementation flow of a method for waking up/sleeping a low power consumption communication node twice according to an embodiment of the present invention, and for convenience of description, only a part related to the embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. Specifically, the method for waking up/sleeping the low-power-consumption communication node for the second time comprises the following steps:
s101, a second node receives an nth wake-up code segment in a data packet with a preset length sent by a first node in a wake-up period in a current wake-up/sleep cycle, wherein n is a positive integer, the data packet comprises a wake-up code and communication data located at the tail end of the wake-up code, the wake-up code comprises m continuous wake-up code segments, and m is a positive integer.
In the invention, the wake-up code sent by the first node is composed of a plurality of continuous wake-up code segments, and the second node can receive any one wake-up code segment without receiving the whole complete wake-up code. And the plurality of continuous wakeup code segments are continuously transmitted in sequence during transmission, namely, the 1 st wakeup code segment is transmitted until the last wakeup code segment is transmitted, and then the communication data is transmitted. For example: the wake-up code includes 10 wake-up code segments (i.e. when m is 10), which are the 1 st wake-up code segment, the 2 nd wake-up code segment, and the 3 rd wake-up code segment … … th wake-up code segment in sequence, and when the first node transmits, the first node starts to transmit from the 1 st wake-up code segment until the 10 th wake-up code segment transmits the communication data after completing the transmission.
Because the first node and the second node are two nodes in the wireless network, and both the nodes are in periodic wake-up work, and the wake-up time point of the second node and the wake-up time point of the first node are not necessarily synchronous, when the second node wakes up at the wake-up time point in one wake-up/sleep cycle, it may receive a non-1 st wake-up code segment, for example, when the second node wakes up, a 3 rd wake-up segment sent by the first node arrives, and the second node may receive the 3 rd wake-up code segment.
S102, the second node calculates a time interval delta T required by the communication data at the current moment according to the received nth wake-up code segment.
That is, after the second node wakes up and receives a wake-up code segment, it does not receive the subsequent wake-up code segment any more, but calculates how long the communication data in the data packet needs to be reached according to the received related information of the wake-up code segment.
And S103, the second node enters the primary sleep in the current awakening/sleep cycle by taking the current moment as a primary sleep time point and the time interval as a primary sleep time length.
After the nth wakeup code segment is received by the second node, the first node continues to send subsequent wakeup code segments which are finished to be sent, and if the second node continues to receive subsequent wakeup code segments, the second node is inevitably in a receiving state for a long time, so that the power consumption is increased. Therefore, in step S103, after a wakeup code segment is received by the second node and the time interval Δ T required for the communication data to arrive is calculated, the second node enters a sleep mode in the current wakeup/sleep cycle. And the time length of the one-time dormancy is just the time required by the first node to continue to send the subsequent wakeup code segment after the nth wakeup code segment, so that when the first node finishes sending the subsequent wakeup code segment and prepares to send communication data, the second node just finishes the one-time dormancy and wakes up, and the waking up can be called as secondary waking.
S104, when the primary dormancy is finished, immediately waking up and receiving the just reached communication data, and continuing to enter the secondary dormancy in the current wake-up/dormancy period after the communication data are received, and waking up again until the wake-up time point of the next wake-up/dormancy period is reached.
That is to say, when the second node finishes waking up after sleeping once in the current wake-up/sleep cycle, the first node just sends the communication data, at this time, the second node can receive the communication data sent by the first node, and after receiving the communication data, the second node enters the sleep state again, that is, enters the secondary sleep state, and when the secondary sleep is finished, that is, the second node finishes sleeping in the current wake-up/sleep cycle, the second node enters the next wake-up/sleep cycle.
It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the first node and the second node may be, but are not limited to, a concentrator, a collector, or a node device such as a wireless communication meter in a wireless meter reading network.
According to the low-power-consumption communication node secondary awakening/sleeping method provided by the embodiment, the awakening code is divided into a plurality of awakening code segments, the second node enters the sleeping state after receiving any one awakening code segment, awakens until data arrives, and continues to sleep after receiving the data, namely, the whole awakening code is not received any more, so that power consumption loss caused by continuous receiving of the awakening code can be avoided, the purposes of reducing power consumption and prolonging the service life of a battery are achieved.
Example two
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 shows another implementation flow of a low power consumption communication node secondary wake-up/sleep method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, and for convenience of description, only parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown. Specifically, the method for waking up/sleeping the low-power-consumption communication node for the second time comprises the following steps:
s201, the second node receives an nth wake-up code segment in a data packet with a preset length sent by the first node in a wake-up period in a current wake-up/sleep cycle, wherein n is a positive integer, the data packet comprises a wake-up code and communication data located at the tail end of the wake-up code, the wake-up code comprises m continuous wake-up code segments, and m is a positive integer.
In the invention, the wake-up code sent by the first node is composed of a plurality of continuous wake-up code segments, and the second node can receive any one wake-up code segment without receiving the whole complete wake-up code. And the plurality of continuous wakeup code segments are continuously transmitted in sequence during transmission, namely, the 1 st wakeup code segment is transmitted until the last wakeup code segment is transmitted, and then the communication data is transmitted. For example: the wake-up code includes 10 wake-up code segments (i.e. when m is 10), which are the 1 st wake-up code segment, the 2 nd wake-up code segment, and the 3 rd wake-up code segment … … th wake-up code segment in sequence, and when the first node transmits, the first node starts to transmit from the 1 st wake-up code segment until the 10 th wake-up code segment transmits the communication data after completing the transmission.
Because the first node and the second node are two nodes in the wireless network, and both the nodes are in periodic wake-up work, and the wake-up time point of the second node and the wake-up time point of the first node are not necessarily synchronous, when the second node wakes up at the wake-up time point in one wake-up/sleep cycle, it may receive a non-1 st wake-up code segment, for example, when the second node wakes up, a 3 rd wake-up segment sent by the first node arrives, and the second node may receive the 3 rd wake-up code segment.
The transmission time lengths t of the wakeup code segments are equal, each wakeup code segment carries a segment count, the segment counts of the wakeup code segments are continuous natural numbers, and the minimum value of the segment counts is 0 or 1.
It should be noted that the transmission time length of the wakeup code segment refers to the time required for the first node to transmit a complete wakeup code segment. The segment count is to mark the position of the wakeup code segment in a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments, so as to conveniently judge how many wakeup code segments are respectively arranged before and after the wakeup code segment.
That is, the lengths of the wake-up code segments are equal, and a plurality of consecutive wake-up code segments are counted consecutively, for example, the number of the wake-up code segments is 10, and the segment counts corresponding to the 1 st wake-up code segment to the 10 th wake-up code segment may be 1, 2, 3 … … 10, etc.
S202, obtaining the segment count a and the transmission time length t in the nth wake-up code segment. Specifically, after receiving the nth wakeup code segment, the second node may obtain the segment count a carried by the nth wakeup code segment from the wakeup segment, and the transmission time length may be preset, for example, the transmission length of one wakeup code segment is 100 milliseconds.
S203, calculating the number x of the wakeup code segments which are not sent in the wakeup code according to the segment count a in the nth wakeup code segment, and multiplying the number x by the time length T to obtain the time interval delta T required by the communication data at the current moment.
Since the wakeup code segments are counted continuously, when the segment count a in the nth received wakeup code segment is known, the number x of wakeup code segments which are not transmitted yet can be known. The wakeup code segments are continuously transmitted in sequence, and the transmission time length of each wakeup code segment is equal, so that the time required for transmitting the subsequent wakeup code segments can be obtained by multiplying the number x of the wakeup code segments which are not transmitted by the transmission time length of each wakeup code segment. Since the first node starts to transmit the communication data after the first node transmits the subsequent wakeup code segment, the time required for transmitting the subsequent wakeup code segment is the time interval Δ T required by the communication data at the current time.
That is, after the second node wakes up and receives a wake-up code segment, it does not receive the subsequent wake-up code segment any more, but calculates how long the communication data in the data packet still needs to be reached according to the received segment count in the wake-up code segment.
It should be noted that, the number x of the wakeup code segments that have not been sent in the wakeup code is calculated according to the segment count a in the nth wakeup code segment, which is different according to different segment count modes of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments, for example:
in an embodiment of the present invention, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are sequentially increased, and correspondingly, the step of calculating the number m of the wakeup code segments that have not been sent according to the segment count a in the nth wakeup code segment specifically includes:
and subtracting the total number m of the wake-up code segments and the segment count a to obtain the number x of the wake-up code segments which are not sent yet.
That is, if the segment count of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments is sequentially incremented from 0 or 1, the total number of wakeup code segments is subtracted by the segment count of the received wakeup code segment to obtain the number of wakeup code segments that have not been transmitted.
For example, when m is 10 and the minimum value of the segment count is 1, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are 1, 2, and 3 … … 10 in sequence. Assuming that the wakeup code segment received by the second node is the 3 rd wakeup code segment, the segment count in the 3 rd wakeup code segment is also 3, and subtracting 3 from 10, the number of the wakeup code segments which are not sent is 7.
For example, when m is 10 and the minimum value of the segment count is 0, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are 0, 1, and 2 … … 9 in this order. Assuming that the wakeup code segment received by the second node is the 3 rd wakeup code segment, the segment count in the 3 rd wakeup code segment is also 2, and subtracting 2 from 9, the number of the wakeup code segments which are not sent is 7.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are sequentially decreased, and the minimum value is 0. Correspondingly, the step of calculating the number x of the wakeup code segments which are not sent according to the segment count a in the nth wakeup code segment specifically comprises the following steps:
determining the segment count a as the number x of the wakeup code segments that have not been sent.
That is, in this case, the segment count a in the wakeup code segment is equal to the number x of wakeup code segments that have not been transmitted.
For example, when m is 10, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are 9, 8, and 7 … … 0 in sequence. If the wakeup code segment received by the second node is the 3 rd wakeup code segment, the segment count in the 3 rd wakeup code segment is also 7, and the number of the wakeup code segments that are not sent is 7.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are sequentially decreased, and the minimum value is 1; correspondingly, the step of calculating the number x of the wakeup code segments which are not sent according to the segment count a in the nth wakeup code segment specifically comprises the following steps:
and subtracting 1 from the segment count a to obtain the number x of the wake-up code segments which are not sent yet.
For example, when m is 10, the segment counts of a plurality of consecutive wakeup code segments are 10, 9, 8, and 7 … … 1 in sequence. Assuming that the wakeup code segment received by the second node is the 3 rd wakeup code segment, the segment count in the 3 rd wakeup code segment is also 8, and subtracting 1 from 8, the number of the wakeup code segments which are not sent is 7.
And S204, the second node enters the primary sleep in the current awakening/sleep cycle by taking the current moment as a primary sleep time point and the time interval as a primary sleep time length.
After the nth wakeup code segment is received by the second node, the first node continues to send subsequent wakeup code segments which are finished to be sent, and if the second node continues to receive subsequent wakeup code segments, the second node is inevitably in a receiving state for a long time, so that the power consumption is increased. Therefore, in step S204, after a wakeup code segment is received by the second node and the time interval Δ T required for the communication data to arrive is calculated, the second node enters a sleep mode in the current wakeup/sleep cycle. And the time length of the one-time dormancy is just the time required by the first node to continue to send the subsequent wakeup code segment after the nth wakeup code segment, so that when the first node finishes sending the subsequent wakeup code segment and prepares to send communication data, the second node just finishes the one-time dormancy and wakes up, and the waking up can be called as secondary waking.
S205, when the one-time dormancy is finished, immediately waking up and receiving the just reached communication data, and continuing to enter the secondary dormancy in the current wake-up/dormancy period after the communication data is received, and waking up again until the wake-up time point of the next wake-up/dormancy period is reached.
That is to say, when the second node finishes waking up after sleeping once in the current wake-up/sleep cycle, the first node just sends the communication data, at this time, the second node can receive the communication data sent by the first node, and after receiving the communication data, the second node enters the sleep state again, that is, enters the secondary sleep state, and when the secondary sleep is finished, that is, the second node finishes sleeping in the current wake-up/sleep cycle, the second node enters the next wake-up/sleep cycle.
It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the first node and the second node may be, but are not limited to, a concentrator, a collector, or a node device such as a wireless communication meter in a wireless meter reading network.
According to the low-power-consumption communication node secondary awakening/sleeping method provided by the embodiment, the awakening code is divided into a plurality of awakening code segments, the second node enters the sleeping state after receiving any one awakening code segment, awakens until data arrives, and continues to sleep after receiving the data, namely, the whole awakening code is not received any more, so that power consumption loss caused by continuous receiving of the awakening code can be avoided, the purposes of reducing power consumption and prolonging the service life of a battery are achieved.
