The industrial control equipment of the current industrial field environment is connected to a nearby industrial control computer through a communication protocol of the equipment, then the industrial control computer is connected to a router of a company through a network cable in a standard Ethernet protocol mode, and then the industrial control equipment is connected to a central server through the router of the company. The issuing of all control commands of a software system of a central server and the uploading of equipment data need to pass through more transmission path links, and a data path based on a common Ethernet easily causes the delay receiving of data and the uncertainty of data arrival time. The response time of the field device is relatively long and cannot meet the real-time control requirement of data transmission.
Moreover, industrial field environment equipment is more, and a wired network connection mode makes the network laying difficulty of a factory larger, the upgrading difficulty (the original laid line needs to be upgraded synchronously according to the automatic equipment), and the upgrading cost is relatively higher. If changes in the network architecture are involved, the network reconfiguration time of the entire plant can have a significant scheduling impact on the production pipeline. However, these upgrades are often frequently generated and unavoidable in the production process according to each vehicle model.
In addition, some new control and sensing devices are introduced into the automation plant field at irregular intervals, the types of the devices are more, and generally the devices are provided with standard interfaces for directly communicating with industrial computing. The more and more kinds of sensor equipment and control equipment are accessed in a certain workstation area, and computer communication interfaces are often insufficient. If the number of access devices of a single computer is increased only by some simple interface expansion cards, not only the resource requirement of a network is increased, but also the task processing burden of the computer is increased, and the problem that various software drivers are mutually exclusive sometimes occurs. It is urgently needed that some devices can locally complete some data acquisition and processing (with edge computing capability), and upload the result of on-site data after fast computation to a server, so that the bandwidth requirement of data uploading is reduced, and meanwhile, some control commands needing fast action can be automatically judged and executed by the devices.

Real-time data transmission can be achieved by using ethernet through a TSN network. The edge calculation control device adopts the TSN network protocol technology, because the TSN network protocol has a time stamp and belongs to a time sensitive network, time characteristics are added to data receiving, sending and control commands of all bottom layer equipment, clock unification of all the equipment is realized, and finally cooperative work in the same time period is achieved.

Alternatively, the real-time data may be divided into large-capacity data and non-large-capacity data. For large-capacity data, such as video images and the like, due to the large capacity, a large bandwidth is required to be occupied for transmitting the data, and due to the real-time requirement, the data can be transmitted to a server in a mobile communication network transmission mode. And for non-large-volume data, the data can be transmitted to the server by adopting a TSN network transmission mode. In fact, some non-real-time data may exist in the industrial field, which is not critical to real-time performance, such as sensor monitoring data in the industrial field. The data is generally characterized by burst, different data lengths and weak data time sensitivity, and the data is not suitable for mixed cross transmission with field control data. The data can be transmitted to the server by adopting a wireless network transmission mode.
In the embodiment of the application, the processor determines the data type of the remote processing data and determines the transmission mode of the remote processing data according to the data type. And under the condition that the data type is determined to be the non-real-time data type, determining that the transmission mode of the remote processing data is wireless network transmission. In the case where the data type is determined to be a real-time data type, a data capacity of the remote processing data is determined. When the data capacity is determined to be large, the transmission mode of the remote processing data is determined to be mobile communication network transmission. And under the condition that the data capacity is determined to be not large, determining that the transmission mode of the remote processing data is time-sensitive network transmission.
S307: and transmitting the remote processing data to the server according to the transmission mode.
In the embodiment of the application, after the processor determines the transmission modes of different types of data, the remote processing data are transmitted to the server according to the determined transmission modes. Specifically, for non-real-time data, the processor can directly send the data to the server through a wireless internet of things interface inside the processor. And for real-time data, the processor sends the real-time data to a time sequence control module in the edge computing control device, the time sequence control module sends high-capacity data to the server through a 5G data transceiver module, and the time sequence control module forwards non-high-capacity data to a standard TSN network interface to be sent to the server.
In the embodiment of the application, the server can also send remote control data to the edge computing control device so as to realize control on the bottom-layer industrial equipment. The server sends the remote control data to the edge computing control device, and correspondingly, the edge computing control device receives the remote control data sent by the server. And the edge computing control device controls the bottom layer industrial equipment according to the remote control data. Optionally, the server may send the remote control data to the edge computing control device through the mobile communication network and the TSN network, and a data transceiver module in the edge computing control device receives the remote control data. And then the edge computing control device determines a control mode of the remote control data, optionally, the remote control data carries control mode information, the data transceiver module analyzes the remote control data to obtain the control mode of the currently received remote control data, and then the edge computing control device controls the bottom-layer industrial equipment according to the control mode. Specifically, after the data transceiver module analyzes the remote control data, the analyzed remote control data are sent to the time sequence control module, the time sequence control module determines the control mode of the currently received remote control data, and when the control mode of the currently received remote control data is determined to be a non-real-time control mode, the data transceiver module directly controls the bottom-layer industrial equipment according to the remote control data. And when the control mode of the current remote control data is determined to be a real-time control mode, converting the remote control data into a real-time clock control instruction. If the bottom layer industrial equipment executing the real-time clock control instruction has a standard TSN network protocol interface, the time sequence control module can directly control the bottom layer industrial equipment according to the real-time clock control instruction. If the bottom layer industrial equipment executing the real-time clock control instruction does not have a standard TSN network protocol interface, for example, the communication interface of the bottom layer industrial equipment is a protocol interface such as PROFINET, EtherCAT or CC-LINK, the time sequence control module sends the real-time clock control instruction to the protocol conversion module for protocol conversion, and then sends the real-time clock control instruction to the bottom layer industrial equipment to execute the real-time clock control instruction.
As an alternative real-time method, the smart factory server sends remote control data with high real-time requirement of 5G signals to the edge computing control devices in each area of the factory through a 5G base station dedicated for self-establishment inside the factory. The device is covered by a 5G network, so that a factory network wiring scheme is flexible and is not limited by the routing and routing restrictions of a limited network. And the 5G data transceiver module in the edge computing control device unpacks the received remote control data sent by the server and sends the unpacked remote control data to the time sequence control module. The time sequence control module converts the remote control data into a command to be executed of a real-time clock so as to realize the execution of the time sequence action of the bottom layer TSN network control equipment. The time sequence control module directly sends a part of remote control data which accords with the TSN network protocol to a standard TSN network protocol interface, and real-time communication based on the TSN protocol is carried out between the remote control data and a corresponding equipment terminal. The protocol conversion module in the edge computing control device is used for converting the TSN network protocol with clock into the existing standard industrial Ethernet protocol such as: PROFINET, EtherCAT, CC-LINK agreement, just so can be through the field Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) equipment of edge calculation controlling means direct connection multiple agreement, realize data interchange. And the time sequence control module distributes part of non-real-time 5G network data to the MPU. The non-real-time measurement and control of sensors, motion control equipment and the like on the site of an automatic assembly line are realized.
