Method embodiment two

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart illustrating steps of a second embodiment of the data processing method according to the present application is shown, and the method is applied to a first node in a broadcast network, and specifically may include the following steps:

step 201, determining first time unit information corresponding to the machine time of a first node in a time period; one time period may include: a plurality of time cells;

step 202, switching between a sleep state and a working state according to a first matching result between the first time unit information and the second time unit information; the second time unit information may be used to characterize the first node or a relevant node of the first node that performs data transmission within the corresponding time unit.

In step 201, the machine time of the first node may refer to the time of the first node corresponding to the machine, and the machine time has real-time property and may change along with the change of the physical time.

The real-time machine time may correspond to a first time unit in an actual cycle, for example, the machine time may sequentially correspond to 0 to (N-1) time units of a time cycle.

In this embodiment, the time unit may include: a Time slice (Time Slot), or a Time Window (Time Window).

According to an embodiment, step 201 may determine first time unit information corresponding to the machine time of the first node in the time period according to the time period information. The time period information may originate from the second node, the time period information comprising: the time length of the time period and the time units comprised by the time period. Alternatively, a preset time may be used as a starting time of one time period, so that the first time unit information may be determined according to the time period information.

According to another embodiment, the step 201 of determining first time unit information corresponding to the machine time of the first node in the time period may specifically include:

receiving synchronization information under the condition that the state of the first node is a working state; the synchronization information is used for time synchronization within the broadcast type network;

and determining first time unit information corresponding to the machine time of the first node in a time period according to the receiving time corresponding to the synchronization information and the synchronization time information corresponding to the synchronization information.

According to the receiving time corresponding to the synchronization information and the synchronization time information corresponding to the synchronization information, the first time unit information corresponding to the machine time of the first node in the time period is determined. The first time unit information may be determined on the basis of time synchronization within the broadcast type network, whereby the synchronicity of the first time unit information within the broadcast type network may be achieved.

In practical applications, the sending method of the synchronization information may include: a one-time transmission scheme, or a periodic transmission scheme. The one-time sending mode does not occupy the time unit of the subsequent time period; the periodic transmission mode may occupy a time unit of a subsequent time period, and thus, the state of the first node may be set to the working state in the corresponding time unit when the transmission time of the synchronization information arrives.

Optionally, the synchronization time information includes: and the receiving time corresponding to the synchronization information is second time unit information corresponding to the time period or time interval information corresponding to the synchronization information.

Optionally, the first time unit information may be determined according to a corresponding relationship between the receiving time and the second time unit information. Alternatively, the second time unit information may characterize any time unit in a time period, such as the 1 st time unit. The embodiment of the application can determine the first time unit information on the basis of the second time unit.

In step 202, the first matching result may represent whether the machine time of the first node reaches a transmission time unit corresponding to the first node in a time period. Therefore, the embodiment of the application switches between the sleep state and the working state according to the first matching result, and can make the first node in the sleep state under the condition that the machine time of the first node does not reach the transmission time unit corresponding to the first node in a time period, so that the power consumption of the first node can be reduced, and the endurance time of the first node can be improved.

In this embodiment of the application, optionally, the step 202 switches between the sleep state and the working state, and specifically may include:

setting the state of the first node as a working state under the condition that the first matching result is matching; or

And under the condition that the first matching result is not matched, setting the state of the first node to be a dormant state.

Optionally, the second time unit information includes: under the condition of first transmission time unit information corresponding to the first node, the working state comprises the following steps: a data reception state. Optionally, the first transmission time unit information may be obtained according to a network address corresponding to the first node.

After the state of the first node is set to the data receiving state, the first node may open a data receiving window to receive data through the data receiving window.

For example, the sequence number range of the time unit in the time cycle is: 0 to (N-1), and if the serial number of the first transmission time unit in the time period is determined to be m according to the unicast address of the first node, the state of the first node can be set to be a working state in the (m +1) th time unit of one time period; and setting the state of the first node to be in a dormant state in time units except for the (m +1) th time unit in one time period.

In this way, in the case where the target node is not in the data receiving state, it can be in the sleep state, and therefore the power consumption of the first node can be reduced. For the first node, the number of the time units in the working state in one time period can be determined according to the number of the transmission time units corresponding to the first node, so that the duty ratio of the time units in the working state can be reduced, and the power consumption of the first node can be reduced.

In this embodiment of the present application, the sending method of the synchronization information may include: a periodic transmission mode. The periodic transmission mode may occupy a time unit of a time period, and thus, when the transmission time of the synchronization information arrives, the state of the first node may be set to an operating state in the corresponding time unit. Therefore, the second matching result between the first time unit information and the third time unit information corresponding to the synchronization information can be used as a basis for state switching.

It is understood that, in the case that the first matching result is a match, the state of the first node may be set to the working state regardless of whether the second matching result is a match.

The period of the third time unit information may correspond to time interval information of the synchronization information, which may be equal to 1 time period, or which may be greater than 1 time period.

Assuming that the time interval information of the synchronization information is 1 time period, the time unit in which the first node is in an active state in one time period may include: and the transmission time unit and the synchronization time unit correspond to the first node.

Of course, the time interval information of the synchronization information may be greater than 1 time period, in which case, the third time unit information may be determined according to the time interval information of the synchronization information. Assuming that the time interval information is 2 time periods, and the sequence number of the synchronization time unit in the time period is 0, the state of the first node may be set to be the working state in the 1 st time unit of the (2i +1) th time unit; wherein i is 0 or a positive integer.

To sum up, the data processing method according to the embodiment of the present application determines, according to the receiving time corresponding to the synchronization information and the synchronization time information corresponding to the synchronization information, first time unit information corresponding to the machine time of the first node in a time period.

In order to make the embodiments of the present application better understood by those skilled in the art, the data processing method of the embodiments of the present application is described herein by way of specific examples.

In a broadcast type network, the second node is used to control the time period and time synchronization of the network. A time period is divided equally into N time units. The second node fixes that time unit 0 (time unit identified as 0) spaced by X time periods sends synchronization information for time synchronization with the first node in the network. If a first node does not receive synchronization information in time unit 0, the first node will continue to listen for X time periods until receiving synchronization information broadcast by the second node.

The first node may receive the second time unit information, the time period information, and the synchronization time information from the second node after completing the network access. And when the first time unit time determined according to the time period information is matched with the second time unit information, setting the state of the first node as a working state so as to open a data receiving window to receive data or open a data sending window to send data to a target node.

Referring to fig. 8, a schematic diagram of a transmission timing sequence according to an embodiment of the present application is shown, where after a first node a completes accessing a network, a second node sends second time unit information, time cycle information, and synchronization time information to the first node a, and the second time unit information received by the first node a includes: a receiving time unit m of the self, wherein the receiving time unit m can be obtained according to the unicast address of the first section a; after the first node B completes network access, the second node B sends second time unit information, time period information and synchronization time information to the first node B, and the second time unit information received by the first node B includes: the node B comprises a self receiving time unit k, a receiving time unit (N-2) and a receiving time unit m of the first node a, wherein the receiving time unit k and the receiving time unit (N-2) can be obtained according to a unicast address and a multicast address of the first node B respectively.

In fig. 8, the rectangular box without padding may represent that the node is in a data transmitting state, and the rectangular box with padding may represent that the node is in a data receiving state.

In time unit 0 of time period j (j may be a natural number), the second node performs an operation of synchronizing the data frame. Specifically, the first node a and the first node B open a monitoring window to monitor the synchronization information broadcast by the second node, and after the first node a and the first node B monitor the synchronization information, the first node a and the first node B indicate that the time is correct, and enter a sleep state.

In the case of time unit k of time arrival time period j, the second node performs an operation of transmitting a data frame. Specifically, the first node B is switched to the operating state, and opens the data receiving window, at this time, the second node sends the data frame to the first node B, and the first node B enters the sleep state again after receiving and processing the data frame.

In the case of time unit m and time unit (N-2) of the time arrival time period j, the first node a and the first node B perform an operation of opening a data reception window, respectively. Specifically, the first node a and the first node B respectively enter a working state, open a data receiving window, and enter a sleep state without receiving any data. Time period j ends after the time is reached.

After the time period (j +1) starts, the second node performs an operation of synchronizing the data frame. Specifically, the second node starts to broadcast the synchronization information in time unit 0, and the first node a and the first node B enter the sleep state after monitoring the synchronization information.

When the time reaches the time unit k of the time period (j +1), the first node B performs an operation of opening a data reception window. Specifically, the first node B enters a working state, opens a data receiving window, and at this time, no node needs to send data, so after the time unit k of the time period (j +1) is finished, the first node B enters a sleep state.

In the case where the time reaches time unit m of time period (j +1), the first node B transmits a data frame to the first node a. Specifically, the first node a enters a working state, a receiving window is opened for data reception, the first node B sends a data frame to the first node a at this time, and after data transmission is completed, the two first nodes enter a sleep state.

In the case where the time reaches the time unit (N-2) of the time period (j +1), the second node transmits the data frame to the first node B. Specifically, the first node B enters a working state, opens a data receiving window, and receives data sent by the second node.

In summary, the nodes in the broadcast network can know the data receiving time of the nodes or other nodes through the second time unit information, so that the nodes in the broadcast network can have more time to be in a dormant state, the power consumption is reduced, and the endurance time of the nodes can be further improved.

In time unit 0 of time period j (j may be a natural number), the management node performs an operation of synchronizing the data frames. Specifically, the low-power-consumption node A and the low-power-consumption node B enter a working state to monitor synchronization information broadcasted by the management node, and the low-power-consumption node A and the low-power-consumption node B indicate correct time and enter a dormant state after monitoring the synchronization information; that is, at time unit 1 of time period j, low power node a and low power node B enter the sleep state.
