That is, only when the second switch K2 and the fourth switch K4 are closed, the BLE receiver 101 and the digital identification module 102 are in the event of listening to the broadcast channel with low power consumption to wake up the MCU103 with low power consumption, and after the MCU103 with low power consumption is woken up, the second switch K2 and the fourth switch K4 are controlled to be turned off, so as to further reduce the power consumption of the passive sensor data acquisition terminal of the present invention. In the embodiment of the present invention, the second switch K2 and the fourth switch K4 are controlled by the MCU, in an initial state, the second switch K2 and the fourth switch K4 are in a closed state, the BLE receiver 101 and the digital id module 102 are in an event of listening to a broadcast channel, when waking up the low power consumption MCU103, the low power consumption MCU103 controls the second switch K2 and the fourth switch K4 to turn off, and when the transmission of data by the MCU103 through the BLE transmission front end 105 is completed, the MCU enters a sleep state again after controlling the second switch K2 and the fourth switch K4 to be closed.

At this time, the BLE receiver and the identity recognition digital module are in a low-power consumption listening broadcast channel event, wherein the low-power consumption MCU is in a sleep state. If the BLE receiver detects the broadcast event packet, the BLE receiver demodulates and outputs a digital signal, and the digital signal enters an identification digital module to perform digital logic analysis and CRC (cyclic redundancy check) according to the sequence of the broadcast packet, wherein if the package data adopts '0 x 01' to represent a temperature sensor data request, only the temperature sensor identification digital module can output an enabling signal to trigger an event response according to '0 x 01' in the aspect of receiving, otherwise, if the received data request command is not the temperature sensor data request, the system cannot be reset again, and a round of monitoring is performed again.

Stage T3: in the phase, the low-power consumption MCU reads data acquired by the sensor through a corresponding protocol (such as I2C, SPI and UART), switches K1 and K6 are turned off for low-level switches after the data reading is finished, the MCU packs the acquired data according to a format according to the protocol specification of a BLE broadcast packet, and the acquired data are ready to be transmitted through the open-loop GFSK modulation of the digital open-loop at the BLE transmitting front end.
Stage T4: let switch K3 be high, switch closed, BLE transmit front end in operating mode, other switches off to reduce power consumption. The low-power consumption MCU transmits the acquired broadcast data packet to a channel through a 2.4GBLE antenna through a digital output GFSK modulation transmitting front end so as to be received by other equipment supporting the iBeacon technology, and after the data transmission is completed, the change-over switch K3 is low, the switch is turned off, the change-over switches K2 and K4 are closed, the low-power consumption MCU enters a dormant state again, and the passive sensor data acquisition terminal enters a new round of event monitoring process T1 again.

Specifically, the low-power consumption MCU is in a dormant state, a BLE receiver monitors a Bluetooth broadcast channel, receives a 2.4G Bluetooth broadcast channel (37, 38, 39) broadcast event packet, and demodulates the broadcast event packet to output digital output; the identity recognition digital module carries out digital logic analysis and CRC (cyclic redundancy check) according to the sequence of the broadcast event packet, wherein if the packet data adopts '01' to represent a temperature sensor data request, only the temperature sensor identity recognition digital module can output an enabling signal to trigger an event response according to '01' in the receiving aspect, otherwise, if the received data request command is not the temperature sensor data request, the system cannot reset again, a round of monitoring is carried out again, and when the identity recognition digital module analyzes that the data request meets the requirement, an MCU (microprogrammed control unit) external event is triggered to be interrupted, and the low-power-consumption MCU is awakened.
Step S2, after the low-power consumption MCU is awakened, the sensor is controlled to collect sensing data, the data collected by the sensor is read, the sensing data is packaged according to the protocol specification of a BLE broadcast packet and output sensing data bit stream to a BLE transmitting front end in a Bluetooth broadcast channel packet mode, the collected sensing data is modulated and transmitted through the BLE transmitting front end, namely, when the identity recognition digital module triggers MCU external event interruption according to the analysis judgment result to awaken the low-power consumption MCU, the low-power consumption MCU passes through a corresponding protocol (such as I)2C, SPI, UART) controls the work of the sensor and reads the data collected by the sensor, and according to the protocol regulation of a BLE broadcast packet, the collected data is packed according to the format to be sent out through the digital open loop GFSK modulation of a BLE transmitting front end.
Step S3, the BLE transmitting front end transmits the acquired sensor data information by using open loop GFSK modulation according to the received sensing data bit stream, that is, the MCU transmits the broadcast data packet of the acquired sensing data to the broadcast channel through the 2.4GBLE antenna by using the digital output GFSK modulation transmitting front end, so as to be received by other devices supporting the iBeacon technology, and after the data transmission is completed, the low power consumption MCU enters a sleep state, and returns to step S1 to perform a new event monitoring process again.
In conclusion, the event-driven ultra-low power consumption passive sensor data acquisition terminal and the method thereof reduce the complex process that the traditional BLE needs to establish connection in the data transmission process by adopting the iBeacon technology, quickly transmit data by means of the channel interception characteristic, reduce the connection time and reduce the system power consumption, and identify the identity by using a logic judgment of a BLE receiver and an identity identification digital module to respond to the event, the MCU is awakened by event driving, so that the complex analysis process that all data packets need to be processed by a processor is avoided, the MCU can be dormant at other time, the power consumption of the system is reduced, meanwhile, the invention receives and transmits the working mode which belongs to half-duplex TDD on time and shares the same broadcast channel, the problem of system calculation caused by frequency hopping switching can be avoided, and the power consumption of the system is further reduced through control strategies of switches at different stages.
