Step five, the base station 2 broadcasts and pages the registered specific electronic shelf label 3, namely the base station A initiates paging broadcast information;
step six, after receiving the paging request of the base station 2, the electronic shelf label 3 sends the information of the electronic shelf label 3 to the base station 2, namely the electronic shelf label 3 monitors the paging broadcast of the base station at a receiving window, and then the clicked electronic shelf label 3 responds information to the base station A;
step seven, when the amount of the service data information issued by the background management device 1 is large (if the electronic shelf label 3 is required to be refreshed), the base station 2 receives the response of the electronic shelf label 3, allocates a new connection parameter and issues the new connection parameter to the corresponding electronic shelf label 3, namely, the base station A monitors the paging response information of the electronic shelf label 3 and issues the frequency hopping connection parameter for the second time corresponding to the electronic shelf label 3; the base station 2 sends the service data issued by the background to the electronic shelf label 3 on the newly allocated connection parameter, namely the electronic shelf label 3 monitors the secondary issuing connection parameter of the base station A and the electronic shelf label 3 receives the service data of the base station by the frequency hopping connection parameter, and the base station issues the service data by the new connection parameter, so that the base station pages the specific electronic shelf label 3 and issues the service data to the electronic shelf label 3; when the amount of the service data information issued by the background management device 1 is small (for example, the electronic shelf label 3 is required to flash), after the base station 2 receives the response of the electronic shelf label 3, the base station 2 issues the service data to the electronic shelf labels 3 in batches.
Step eight, the electronic shelf label 3 receives the service data on the new connection parameters, and transmits the service state (the service state refers to the processing results of services such as image brushing and flashing of the system of the electronic shelf label 3, such as success or failure of image brushing and success or failure of flashing of the electronic shelf label 3) to the base station 2, and the base station 2 returns the service state to the background management device 1 after receiving the service state.
To maximize the battery life of the terminals (electronic shelf labels 3) and to extend the network capacity, 2.4G proprietary protocol networks use rate Adaptation (ADR) mechanisms to manage the rate and RF output of each terminal (electronic shelf labels 3) independently. Each device may transmit data using any data rate on any available channel, at any time, as long as the following specifications are observed:
1. each transmission by a terminal changes the channel in a pseudo-random manner.
2. The terminal is to comply with the maximum transmission duty cycle requirements in the radio specifications of the respective frequency band and local area.
3. The terminal is to comply with the maximum transmission time requirements in the radio specifications of the respective frequency band and local area.
Example 2: example 1. When the link quality values of two or three broadcast data packets received by the electronic shelf label 3 are the same, the electronic shelf label 3 actively registers with the base station 2 with the highest link quality value and the earliest received broadcast data packet.
It is to be understood that: although the above embodiments have described the design idea of the present invention in more detail, these descriptions are only simple descriptions of the design idea of the present invention, and are not limitations of the design idea of the present invention, and any combination, addition, or modification without departing from the design idea of the present invention falls within the scope of the present invention.
