In order to make the technical solutions better understood by those skilled in the art, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in fig. 1, which is a schematic flowchart of a method for establishing a communication connection by using smart home devices according to an embodiment of the present application, the method for establishing a communication connection by using smart home devices may be as follows.

Step S101, the relay terminal broadcasts a discovery signal for establishing communication connection with the intelligent household equipment.

The smart home device (Remote UE) may be a Remote terminal, such as a conference terminal, a dispenser, a doorbell, a refrigerator, a washing machine, a stereo, an air conditioner, a television, a disinfection cabinet, and other devices used in a home or office. A Relay terminal (Relay UE) uses a Relay technology to forward data between a base station and smart home devices, and one end of the Relay terminal is connected to the smart home devices based on a wired interface or a wireless interface, for example, connected to the smart home devices based on a pc5 interface, bluetooth or WIFI. The other end of the relay terminal is connected with a base station of a communication network based on a wireless interface (for example, uu interface), and the relay terminal can be connected with one or more than two intelligent household devices.

The relay terminal may be a relay device that is set separately, or may be a terminal device that is installed with an Application (APP) having a corresponding relay function, for example, a computer, a smartphone, a tablet computer, and the like.

For example, the relay terminal is started to broadcast the discovery signal or input a connection command for establishing connection with the smart home devices through a computer, a mobile phone terminal or directly on the relay terminal, and after receiving the connection command, the relay terminal broadcasts the discovery signal, so that the smart home devices receiving the discovery signal send a connection request to the relay terminal. Illustratively, the relay terminal may broadcast the discovery signal over the pc5 interface.

And step S102, the intelligent household equipment sends a connection request to the relay terminal after detecting the discovery signal.

For example, after the intelligent terminal device is powered on, whether a discovery signal broadcasted by the relay terminal exists at present is detected, and after the discovery signal broadcasted by the relay terminal is detected, a connection request is sent to the relay terminal so as to establish connection with the relay terminal. Illustratively, the smart home device may request to establish a connection with the relay terminal through a pc5 interface message.

And step S103, the relay terminal establishes communication connection with the intelligent household equipment according to the connection request.

For example, the relay terminal establishes communication connection with one or more smart home devices sending the connection request according to the received connection request. For simplicity of description, the following embodiments take the example that the plurality of smart home devices include two or more smart home devices as an example for explanation.

After the communication connection is established, in order to realize that the relay terminal forwards data between the intelligent home equipment and the base station, the base station respectively establishes data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the intelligent home equipment and between the relay terminal and the base station, the data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the intelligent home equipment are collectively called first-class data transmission channels, and the data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the base station are collectively called second-class data transmission channels, wherein the first-class data transmission channels and the second-class data transmission channels can be used for transmitting uplink data and downlink data, and each data transmission channel has a unique channel identifier. For example, a plurality of first-type data transmission channels may be established between the relay terminal and each smart home device, and are respectively used for transmitting data of different service types, and optionally, 2, 4, or 8 first-type data transmission channels may be established between the relay terminal and each smart home device. A plurality of second-type data transmission channels can be established between the relay terminal and the base station, and the number of the second-type data transmission channels can be determined according to the number of all first-type data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the smart home devices connected thereto, so that each first-type data transmission channel can correspond to one second-type data transmission channel, that is, the first-type data transmission channels correspond to the second-type data transmission channels one to one, for example, 256 first-type data transmission channels are established between the relay terminal and the smart home devices connected thereto, and 256 second-type data transmission channels also need to be established between the relay terminal and the base station.

The Service types may be distinguished by Quality of Service (QoS) of data, where different Service types correspond to different QoS, and the same Service type corresponds to the same QoS. That is, in this embodiment, whether the service types are the same is determined according to whether the QoS of the service data is the same, if the QoS of the two service data is the same, the service types are the same, and if the QoS of the two service data is different, the service types are different.

For example, the correspondence between the service type of the uplink data and the QoS may be as shown in table 1 below.

TABLE 1

In table 1, CS and PS respectively indicate a Circuit Switched (CS) domain and a Packet Switched (PS) domain, and the QoS class is set by the service data according to the QoS attribute of the service to which the service data belongs. Since the signaling is special, its importance is greater than that of the relay terminal data, and the data throughput of the signaling is low, the QoS level of the signaling data is set to be the highest in table 1, and the QoS types of the relay terminals such as conversational, streaming, interactive, and background are also given different QoS levels according to their requirements on the QoS.

Because the communication links of the relay terminal and different intelligent household devices are different, the first-class data transmission channels of the relay terminal and different intelligent household devices are necessarily different, and even if the relay terminal transmits data of the same service type, the first-class data transmission channels between the relay terminal and different intelligent household devices are different. Moreover, for the first-class data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the same intelligent home device, the first-class data transmission channels required to be established by the data of different service types are also different, so that even if the same intelligent home device is used, the data of different service types also need to be established by different first-class data transmission channels.

Optionally, for multiple data of the same smart home device and having the same service type, the base station may establish a first-type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the smart home device, that is, for multiple data of the same smart home device and having the same service type, the base station establishes the same first-type data transmission channel for multiple data of the same service type between the relay terminal and the smart home device, and the multiple data of the same service type may be transmitted through the first-type data transmission channel.

Herein, the first-type data transmission channels are different data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the smart home devices, and are used for transmitting uplink data of different service types sent by different smart home devices, and are identified by channel identifiers of different first-type data transmission channels, and the second-type data transmission channels are different data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the base station, and are used for transmitting uplink data of different service types sent by different smart home devices, and are identified by channel identifiers of different second-type data transmission channels.

As shown in fig. 2, a schematic diagram of connection of data transmission channels among a base station, a relay terminal, and smart home devices in the embodiment of the present application is shown, and a first smart home device 211 and a second smart home device 212 are taken as an example for description.

The first smart home device 211 needs to transmit first data and second data with different QoS, for example, the first data is session CS domain data, the second data is session PS domain data, the first data or the second data may be uplink data or downlink data, the base station 213 establishes a first data transmission channel (with a channel identifier of: a first channel identifier a 11) and a second data transmission channel (with a channel identifier of: a second channel identifier a 12) between the first smart home device 211 and the relay terminal, respectively, where the first data transmission channel is used for transmitting the first data, and the second data transmission channel is used for transmitting the second data.

The second smart home device 212 needs to transmit third data and fourth data with different QoS, for example, the third data is session CS domain data, the fourth data is session PS domain data, the third data or the fourth data may be uplink data or downlink data, the base station 213 establishes a third data transmission channel (channel identifier: a third channel identifier B11) and a fourth data transmission channel (channel identifier: a fourth channel identifier B12) between the second smart home device 212 and the relay terminal, the third data transmission channel is used for transmitting the third data, and the fourth data transmission channel is used for transmitting the fourth data.

The first, second, third and fourth data transmission channels are all first type data transmission channels.

For transmitting the first, second, third and fourth data, the base station 213 respectively establishes a fifth data transmission channel (the channel identifier thereof is: a fifth channel identifier a 21), a sixth data transmission channel (the channel identifier thereof is: a sixth channel identifier a 22), a seventh data transmission channel (the channel identifier thereof is: a seventh channel identifier B21) and an eighth data transmission channel (the channel identifier thereof is: an eighth channel identifier B22) between the base station 213 and the relay terminal, that is, the first data transmission channel corresponds to the fifth data transmission channel, and the fifth data transmission channel is used for transmitting the first data; the second data transmission channel corresponds to a sixth data transmission channel, and the sixth data transmission channel is used for transmitting second data; the third data transmission channel corresponds to a seventh data transmission channel, and the seventh data transmission channel is used for transmitting third data; the fourth data transmission channel corresponds to an eighth data transmission channel, and the eighth data transmission channel is used for transmitting fourth data.

The fifth data transmission channel, the sixth data transmission channel, the seventh data transmission channel and the eighth data transmission channel are all second-class data transmission channels.

When certain intelligent home equipment needs to send uplink data, the uplink data is sent to the relay terminal through the established data transmission channel corresponding to the service type of the uplink data. The uplink data may be a plurality of data having the same QoS or a plurality of data having different QoS. When the uplink data are a plurality of data with the same QoS, the intelligent household equipment sends the plurality of data to the relay terminal through one data transmission channel corresponding to the QoS. When the uplink data are a plurality of data with different QoS, the intelligent home equipment respectively transmits the plurality of data to the relay terminal through the first type data transmission channel corresponding to the QoS of each uplink data.

Therefore, the relay terminals are arranged between the base station and the intelligent home devices, and data forwarding is carried out through the relay terminals, so that for a large number of intelligent home devices, uplink data transmitted by the intelligent home devices are uniformly received through the relay terminals and then are uniformly forwarded, and the situation that each intelligent home device needs to communicate with the base station is avoided.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for requesting uplink resources according to another embodiment of the present application, where the method for requesting uplink resources may be described as follows.

In this embodiment, a threshold value for triggering the relay terminal to request the data volume of the uplink resource is set for the uplink data of each service type, and the uplink data is not limited to be sent by the smart home device. For example, the relay terminal sets a data amount threshold for triggering the request uplink resource for the uplink data of each service type, or the base station sets a data amount threshold for triggering the request uplink resource for the uplink data of each service type, and sends the data amount threshold to the relay terminal.

The process of establishing the communication connection between the relay terminal and the one or more smart home devices may refer to the process from step S101 to step S103 in the embodiment of fig. 1, which is not described herein again, and after establishing the communication connection between the relay terminal and the one or more smart home devices, the communication process is as follows.

Step S301, the relay terminal receives uplink data sent by one or more intelligent household devices.

After establishing communication connection with one or more intelligent home devices, the relay terminal receives uplink data sent by the one or more intelligent home devices, and the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal can be the same in service type or different in service type.

For example, the upstream data may include at least one of audio data, video data, image data, text data, log text data, and alarm signaling.

Step S302, the relay terminal determines the currently received service type of each uplink data, and determines whether the total data amount of all uplink data of each service type reaches the threshold value of the corresponding data amount.

For example, when receiving uplink data sent by a certain smart home device, the relay terminal determines a QoS value of the uplink data, determines a corresponding service type according to the QoS value, counts data amount of all uplink data of the service type currently received by the relay terminal, and queries whether a buffer or a memory of the relay terminal stores the uplink data to be sent of the service type.

When the buffer or the memory stores the uplink data to be sent of the service type, the total data volume of all the uplink data of the service type is the sum of the data volume of all the uplink data of the currently received service type and the data volume of the stored uplink data to be sent of the service type. When the buffer or the memory does not store the uplink data to be sent of the service type, the total data volume of all the uplink data of the service type is the data volume of all the uplink data of the currently received service type.

The relay terminal stores the corresponding relation between each service type and the data volume threshold value, and determines whether the total data volume of all uplink data of each service type reaches the corresponding threshold value according to the corresponding relation between each service type and the data volume threshold value. For example, the relay terminal stores a corresponding relationship between the first service type and the first threshold, and the relay terminal determines whether the total data volume of all uplink data of the first service type reaches the first threshold according to the corresponding relationship between the first service type and the first threshold.

For example, a threshold value of a data amount for triggering the request of the uplink resource is set to be N1 for the uplink data of the conversational CS domain, and the first corresponding relationship between the uplink data of the conversational CS domain and N1 is stored in the relay terminal.

If the first service type is the conversational CS domain data, a data volume threshold value corresponding to the conversational CS domain data is found to be N1 according to the first corresponding relation, and the relay terminal judges whether the total data volume of all the conversational CS domain uplink data reaches N1, wherein if the conversational CS domain uplink data is stored before the current conversational CS domain uplink data is received, all the conversational CS domain uplink data comprises the stored conversational CS domain uplink data and all the currently received conversational CS domain uplink data, and if the conversational CS domain uplink data is not stored before the current conversational CS domain uplink data is received, all the conversational CS domain uplink data comprises all the currently received conversational CS domain uplink data.

Step S303, when the relay terminal determines that the total data volume of all uplink data of a certain current service type reaches a corresponding threshold value, immediately requesting the base station for transmitting uplink resources required by all uplink data of the service type; when the relay terminal determines that the total data volume of all uplink data of the current service type does not reach the corresponding threshold value, the currently received uplink data of the service type is cached, the uplink data of the service type is continuously received until the total data volume of all uplink data of the service type reaches the corresponding threshold value, and uplink resources required for transmitting all uplink data of the service type are immediately requested from the base station.

For example, the relay terminal currently receives uplink data of the first and second service types, and immediately requests uplink resources required for transmitting all uplink data of the first service type when the total data amount of all uplink data of the first service type reaches the data amount threshold corresponding to the first service type. When the total data volume of all uplink data of the second service type does not reach the data volume threshold value corresponding to the second service type, caching all uplink data of the currently received second service type, and continuously receiving the uplink data of the second service type until the total data volume of all uplink data of the second service type reaches the threshold value corresponding to the second service type, immediately requesting uplink resources required for transmitting all uplink data of the second service type.

For example, for uplink data of any service type whose total data amount reaches a corresponding threshold value, the relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, where the resource request message is used to request the base station to transmit uplink resources required by all uplink data of the service type, and the resource request message includes a channel identifier of at least one second-type data transmission channel and uplink resource information, and since all uplink data of the service type belong to the same service type, the number of the channel identifiers of the second-type data transmission channel is related to the smart home devices that transmit the uplink data, that is, the number of the channel identifiers of the second-type data transmission channel is equal to the sum of the numbers of the smart home devices that transmit all uplink data of the service type, and the uplink resource information is used to indicate uplink resources required by transmitting all uplink data of the service type.

For example, if all uplink data of the first service type are from the same smart home device, for example, the first smart home device, the resource request message includes a channel identifier of a second type data transmission channel and uplink resource information, where the channel identifier is used to indicate the second type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used to indicate uplink resources required for transmitting all uplink data of the first service type.

If all uplink data of the first service type come from at least two different intelligent home devices, that is, the first type data transmission channels for sending the uplink data are different, the resource request message includes uplink resource information and channel identifiers of the second type data transmission channels corresponding to each first type data transmission channel for sending the uplink data (that is, may also be referred to as corresponding to each intelligent home device), the number of the channel identifiers of the second type data transmission channels is equal to the sum of the number of all intelligent home devices for sending the uplink data, each channel identifier is used for indicating one second type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used for indicating uplink resources required for transmitting all uplink data of the first service type.

The uplink resource is a resource required for the relay terminal to transmit uplink data to the base station, for example, for a 4G or 5G network, the uplink resource includes one of the following or any combination thereof: frequency bins, frequency bands, subcarrier spacing, power, and format (e.g., modulation coding scheme or code rate).

Step S304, the base station allocates corresponding uplink resources and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal sends corresponding uplink data by using the received uplink resources.

For example, when the relay terminal requests the base station for transmitting uplink resources required for all uplink data of a certain service type, the base station allocates the uplink resources required for transmitting all uplink data of the service type and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits the uplink resources required for all uplink data of the service type by using the received uplink resources.

When the uplink data of the service type is stored in the relay terminal and/or the relay terminal continues to receive the uplink data of the service type, all the uplink data of the service type may further include the uplink data of the service type stored in the relay terminal and/or the uplink data of the service type continuously received by the relay terminal after the uplink data of the service type is currently received.

In this embodiment, a threshold value for triggering the request of the data amount of the uplink resource is set for uplink data of each service type, so as to uniformly request the uplink resources, the uplink resources required are requested only once when the total data amount of the uplink data of the same service type reaches a preset threshold value, and when the data amount of the uplink data of the same service type does not reach the preset threshold value, the uplink resources are buffered first, and when the uplink data of the same service type is received next time and the total data amount reaches the preset threshold value, the corresponding uplink resources are requested, so that the uplink resources are requested immediately after the uplink data is received by the relay terminal, the number of requests can be reduced, resources are saved, scheduling tasks of a data plane can be reduced, the load of a communication network is reduced, the communication quality is improved, the communication quality is prevented from being reduced, and the uplink resources are requested in time, so as to transmit the uplink data as soon as possible.

Step S402, the relay terminal determines whether uplink data to be sent are stored, and if the uplink data to be sent are stored in the relay terminal, step S403 is executed; if the relay terminal does not store the uplink data to be sent, step S404 is executed.

For example, the relay terminal has a buffer or a memory for buffering or storing the uplink data.

For example, before receiving current uplink data, the relay terminal may have received uplink data of any service type sent by any smart home device, but the data amount of the received uplink data does not reach the threshold value for triggering the request of the uplink resource, so the relay terminal first temporarily stores the uplink data, and does not first request the uplink resource to send the uplink data, and thus the stored uplink data may be referred to as stored uplink data to be sent.

Therefore, when the relay terminal currently receives the uplink data, it determines whether the buffer or the memory thereof stores the uplink data that is received before the uplink data is currently received and that is not transmitted, and if the relay terminal stores the uplink data to be transmitted, step S403 is executed; if the relay terminal does not store the uplink data to be sent, step S404 is executed.

Step S403, the relay terminal determines whether the total data amount of the stored uplink data to be sent and the uplink data currently received reaches a threshold, and if the total data amount of the uplink data to be sent and the uplink data currently received that are stored by the relay terminal reaches the threshold, step S410 is executed; if the total data amount of the uplink data to be transmitted and the uplink data currently received, which are stored in the relay terminal, is less than the threshold value, step S405 is executed.

The uplink data to be sent stored by the relay terminal may be uplink data of one service type, or may also be uplink data of multiple service types, and the service type of the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal may be one of the multiple service types of the uplink data to be sent stored by the relay terminal, or the service type of the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal is different from the service type of the uplink data to be sent stored by the relay terminal.

Step S404, the relay terminal determines whether the data amount of the currently received uplink data reaches a threshold, if the data amount of the currently received uplink data reaches the threshold, step S409 is executed, and if the data amount of the currently received uplink data of the relay terminal is less than the threshold, step S405 is executed.

Since the relay terminal determines that no uplink data is stored therein, the relay terminal determines whether the data amount of the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal reaches a threshold value, if the relay terminal determines that the data amount of the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal reaches the threshold value, step S409 is executed, and if the relay terminal determines that the data amount of the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal is less than the threshold value, step S405 is executed.

In step S405, the relay terminal buffers the currently received uplink data, and then executes step S406.

For example, the relay terminal has a buffer for buffering uplink data, and then performs step S406.

Step S406, the relay terminal continues to receive other uplink data of any service type sent by any smart home device, and then step S407 is executed.

And the relay terminal waits for continuously receiving other uplink data of any service type sent by any intelligent household equipment, and if the intelligent household equipment continues to send other uplink data subsequently, the relay terminal continuously receives other uplink data sent by the intelligent household equipment.

Step S407, the relay terminal determines whether the total data amount of all current uplink data reaches a threshold.

The relay terminal continues to receive other uplink data of any service type sent by any intelligent home equipment, merges the data volume with the received uplink data, determines whether the current all uplink data volume reaches the threshold value in real time until the total data volume of the current all uplink data reaches the threshold value, and executes step S408.

According to different situations that whether the relay terminal stores uplink data before receiving the current uplink data in step S401, the data included in all the current uplink data of the relay terminal is different, for example, when the relay terminal stores uplink data before receiving the current uplink data in step S401, all the current uplink data of the relay terminal includes the current uplink data received in step S401, the uplink data stored before the relay terminal receives the current uplink data in step S401, and other uplink data continuously received in step S406; when the relay terminal does not store uplink data before receiving the current uplink data in step S401, all the current uplink data of the relay terminal includes the current uplink data received in step S401 and the uplink data that the relay terminal continues to receive in step S406.

And if the relay terminal determines that the total data volume of all the current uplink data is smaller than the threshold value, returning to execute the step S406.

Step S408, the relay terminal immediately requests the base station for uplink resources required for transmitting all current uplink data, and then executes step S411.

For example, the relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, where the resource request message is used to request the base station to transmit uplink resources required by all current uplink data, the resource request message includes a channel identifier of at least one second-type data transmission channel and uplink resource information, the number of the channel identifiers of the second-type data transmission channels is equal to a product value of the number of smart home devices that send all current uplink data and the number of service types of all current uplink data, the channel identifier of each second-type data transmission channel is used to indicate one second-type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used to indicate uplink resources required by all current uplink data transmission.

The channel identifier of the second type data transmission channel included in the resource request message corresponds to the first type data transmission channel for sending the uplink data, so that the first type data transmission channel corresponds to the second type data transmission channel one to one, namely, the channel identifier of the second type data transmission channel included in the resource request message corresponds to the intelligent home equipment for sending the uplink data and the service type of the uplink data one to one.

And if all the uplink data are the uplink data of the same service type sent by the same intelligent household equipment, the resource request message comprises a channel identifier of a second type data transmission channel and uplink resource information.

And if all the uplink data are sent by the N intelligent household devices and comprise M service types, and N and M are positive integers which are more than or equal to 1, the resource request message comprises channel identifiers of NxM second-class data transmission channels and uplink resource information.

The uplink resource is a resource required for the relay terminal to transmit uplink data to the base station, for example, for a 4G or 5G network, the uplink resource includes one of the following resources or any combination thereof: frequency bins, frequency bands, subcarrier spacing, power, and format (e.g., modulation coding or code rate).

Step S409, the relay terminal immediately requests the base station for transmitting the uplink resource required by the currently received uplink data.

The relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, the resource request message is used for requesting the base station to transmit uplink resources required by currently received uplink data, the resource request message comprises channel identifiers of at least one second-class data transmission channel and uplink resource information, the number of the channel identifiers of the second-class data transmission channel is equal to the product value of the number of intelligent home equipment sending the currently received uplink data and the number of service types of the currently received uplink data, each channel identifier is used for indicating one second-class data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used for indicating the uplink resources required by transmitting the currently received uplink data.

And if the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal are all uplink data of the same service type sent by the same intelligent household equipment, the resource request message comprises a channel identifier of a second type data transmission channel and uplink resource information.

If the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal is sent by the N smart home devices and includes M service types, and both N and M are positive integers greater than or equal to 1, the resource request message includes channel identifiers of N × M second-type data transmission channels and uplink resource information.

The relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, the resource request message is used for requesting the base station to transmit uplink resources required by stored uplink data to be sent and current received uplink data, the resource request message comprises channel identifiers and uplink resource information of at least one second-class data transmission channel, the number of the channel identifiers of the second-class data transmission channel is equal to the product value of the number of intelligent home equipment for sending the stored uplink data to be sent and the current received uplink data and the number of service types of the stored uplink data to be sent and the current received uplink data, each channel identifier is used for indicating one second-class data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used for indicating the uplink resources required by the stored uplink data and the current received uplink data.

And if the uplink data stored by the relay terminal and the currently received uplink data are the uplink data of the same service type and sent by the same intelligent household equipment, the resource request message comprises a channel identifier of a second type data transmission channel and uplink resource information.

And if the uplink data stored by the relay terminal and the currently received uplink data are sent by the N intelligent household devices and comprise M service types, and N and M are positive integers which are more than or equal to 1, the resource request message comprises channel identifiers and uplink resource information of N multiplied by M second-type data transmission channels.

After step S408, step S409, and step S410, step S411 is performed.

Step S411, the base station allocates corresponding uplink resources and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal.

For example, when the relay terminal requests the base station for uplink resources required for transmitting currently received uplink data, the base station allocates the uplink resources required for transmitting the currently received uplink data and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits the currently received uplink data by using the received uplink resources.

When the relay terminal requests the base station for transmitting the uplink resources required by all the current uplink data of the relay terminal, the base station allocates the uplink resources for transmitting all the current uplink data of the relay terminal and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits all the current uplink data of the relay terminal by using the received uplink resources.

When the relay terminal requests the base station for transmitting the uplink data stored by the relay terminal and the uplink resource required by the currently received uplink data, the base station allocates the uplink resource required for transmitting the uplink data stored by the relay terminal and the currently received uplink data and sends the uplink resource to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits the uplink data stored by the relay terminal and the currently received uplink data by using the received uplink resource.

The data volume of the uplink data reaching the threshold refers to determining the data volume of all current uplink data (including currently received, stored and/or continuously received uplink data) of the relay terminal in real time in the process of receiving the uplink data by the relay terminal, and when the data volume is increased to be equal to the threshold, the data volume reaches the threshold.

In this embodiment, a threshold value of the data amount of the uplink data triggering the request of the uplink resource is set at the relay terminal, so as to request the uplink resource uniformly, the uplink resource required is requested only once when the total data amount of all the current uplink data of the relay terminal reaches the preset threshold value, and when the total data amount of all the current uplink data of the relay terminal does not reach the preset threshold value, the currently received uplink data is buffered first, and the uplink data is received next time, and until the total data amount reaches the preset threshold value, the corresponding uplink resource is requested, so that the uplink resource is requested immediately after the uplink data is received by the relay terminal, the number of requests can be reduced, the resource is saved, the scheduling task of the data plane can be reduced, the load of the communication network is reduced, the communication quality is improved, and the reduction of the communication quality is avoided.

When the smart home device system in fig. 8 executes the method for requesting uplink resources in fig. 4, a specific working process may be as follows.

In this embodiment, the relay terminal 61 is configured to broadcast a discovery signal for establishing a communication connection.

The relay terminal 61 is further configured to establish a communication connection with one or more smart home devices 62 according to the received connection request, and execute the method for requesting uplink resources as in any of the above embodiments after establishing a communication connection with one or more smart home devices 62.

Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating another method for requesting uplink resources according to another embodiment of the present application, where the method for requesting uplink resources may be as follows.

In this embodiment, a threshold value for triggering the relay terminal to request the data volume of the uplink resource is set for each type of uplink data of the transmission priority of each smart home device. For example, the relay terminal sets a threshold value for triggering the relay terminal to request the uplink data amount of the uplink resource for the uplink data of each transmission priority of each smart home device, or the base station sets a threshold value for triggering the relay terminal to request the uplink data amount of the uplink resource for the uplink data of each transmission priority of each smart home device, and sends the threshold value to the relay terminal.

And step S501, the relay terminal receives uplink data sent by the intelligent household equipment.

After establishing communication connection with the intelligent home equipment, the relay terminal receives uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment, wherein the uplink data can include any one of audio data, video data, image data, log text data, alarm signaling and text data.

Step S502, the relay terminal determines the transmission priority of the uplink data and the identity of the intelligent household equipment.

For example, the transmission priorities may be distinguished by transmission delays or importance levels of data, different transmission priorities correspond to different transmission delays or importance levels, and the same transmission priority corresponds to the same transmission delay or importance level, where the transmission delay refers to the longest time that uplink data requires transmission to be completed, for example, the transmission delay of interactive real-time data is generally less than 20 milliseconds (ms), the transmission delay of log data is generally greater than 300 milliseconds (ms), and the data importance level refers to the importance of uplink data, for example, the importance of real-time data is greater than the importance of non-real-time data. The smaller the transmission delay or the higher the importance level, the higher the transmission priority, whereas the larger the transmission delay or the lower the importance level, the lower the transmission priority. That is, in this embodiment, whether the transmission priorities of the uplink data are the same is determined according to whether the transmission delays or the importance levels of the uplink data are the same, if the transmission delays or the importance levels of the two uplink data are the same, the transmission priorities of the two uplink data are the same, and if the transmission delays or the importance levels of the two uplink data are different, the transmission priorities of the two uplink data are different.

The relay terminal stores the corresponding relation between the transmission delay and the transmission priority or the corresponding relation between the importance level and the transmission priority, analyzes the uplink data after receiving the uplink data sent by the intelligent household equipment, or obtains the transmission delay or the importance level of the uplink data and the identity of the intelligent household equipment, and determines the transmission priority according to the corresponding relation and the transmission delay or the importance level of the uplink data.

Step S503, the relay terminal queries whether there is other uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device to be sent according to the transmission priority and the identity of the smart home device.

For example, the relay terminal queries whether other uplink data which is sent by the smart home device to be sent and has the transmission priority are stored according to the transmission priority of the currently received uplink data and the identity of the smart home device sending the currently received uplink data.

For example, before receiving the current uplink data, the relay terminal may also receive other uplink data that is sent by the smart home device and has the transmission priority, but trigger a condition that requests the uplink resource so that the uplink resource is not sent to the base station, but is buffered as the uplink data to be sent.

If other uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be sent are found, step S505 is executed, and if other uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be sent are not found, step S504 is executed.

Step S504, the relay terminal determines whether the data volume of the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device reaches a threshold value.

The relay terminal stores a corresponding relationship between each transmission priority of each smart home device and a data amount threshold, for example, the relay terminal determines a corresponding relationship between a transmission priority corresponding to the transmission priority of the smart home device and a data amount threshold according to a transmission priority of currently received uplink data and an identity of the smart home device that transmits the uplink data, determines a corresponding data amount threshold according to the corresponding relationship, determines whether a data amount of the uplink data of the transmission priority of the currently received smart home device reaches the threshold, and executes step S508 if the data amount of the uplink data of the transmission priority of the currently received smart home device reaches the threshold; if the data volume of the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device is smaller than the threshold value, step S506 is executed.

For example, the smart home device needs to transmit session CS domain data and session PS domain data with different transmission priorities, where the transmission priority of the session CS domain data is a first transmission priority, and the transmission priority of the session PS domain data is a second transmission priority, where the first transmission priority is greater than the second transmission priority. The relay terminal or the base station sets different data volume thresholds for triggering the request of the uplink resource for the first transmission priority and the second transmission priority of the smart home device, for example, a threshold for triggering the relay terminal to request the uplink resource for the first transmission priority of the smart home device is set to be N1, and another threshold for triggering the relay terminal to request the uplink resource for the second transmission priority of the smart home device is set to be N2. And storing the first corresponding relation between the first transmission priority and the N1 and the second corresponding relation between the second transmission priority and the N2 of the intelligent household equipment in the relay terminal.

If the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal is the session type CS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment, determining that the transmission priority is the first transmission priority according to the transmission delay or the importance level of the currently received session type CS domain uplink data, finding the first corresponding relation according to the first transmission priority, finding N1 according to the first corresponding relation, judging whether the data volume of the currently received session type CS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment reaches N1 by the relay terminal, if the data volume of the currently received session type CS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment reaches N1, executing step S508, and if the data volume of the currently received session type CS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment is smaller than N1, executing step S506.

If the uplink data currently received by the relay terminal is session type PS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment, determining that the transmission priority is a second transmission priority according to the transmission delay or the importance level of the currently received session type PS domain uplink data, searching for a second corresponding relation according to the second transmission priority, and searching for N2 according to the second corresponding relation, judging whether the data volume of the currently received session type PS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment reaches N2 by the relay terminal, if the data volume of the currently received session type PS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment reaches N2, executing step S508, and if the data volume of the currently received session type PS domain uplink data sent by the intelligent home equipment is less than N2, executing step S506.

Step S505, the relay terminal determines whether the total data volume of the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device and other uplink data reaches a threshold value.

The relay terminal stores a corresponding relationship between each transmission priority of each smart home device and a data amount threshold, for example, the relay terminal determines a corresponding relationship between a transmission priority of the smart home device and a data amount threshold according to a transmission priority of currently received uplink data and an identity of the smart home device that transmits the uplink data, determines a corresponding data amount threshold according to the corresponding relationship, determines whether a total data amount of currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device and other uplink data of the transmission priority transmitted by the smart home device reaches the threshold, and executes step S509 if a total data amount of currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device and other uplink data reaches the threshold; if the total data amount of the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device and other uplink data is smaller than the threshold value, step S506 is executed.

Step S506, the relay terminal caches currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device, continues to receive the uplink data of the transmission priority sent by the smart home device until the total data volume of all uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device reaches a threshold value, and then executes step S507.

When the relay terminal inquires other uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be sent and the total data amount of the other uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be currently received does not reach the threshold value, or when the relay terminal inquires other uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be sent and the total data amount of the uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be currently received and the total data amount of the other uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to be currently received does not reach the threshold value, the relay terminal caches the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and waits for continuously receiving the uplink data of the transmission priority sent by the intelligent home equipment.

When the relay terminal continuously receives the uplink data of the transmission priority sent by the intelligent household equipment, the total data volume of all the uplink data of the transmission priority of the current intelligent household equipment is calculated when the uplink data of the transmission priority sent by the intelligent household equipment is received, until the total data volume of all the uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent household equipment reaches a threshold value, wherein all the uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent household equipment comprise all the cached uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent household equipment and the uplink data of the transmission priority sent by the intelligent household equipment and received currently when the relay terminal continuously receives the uplink data of the transmission priority.

When the total data amount of all the uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device reaches the threshold value, the continuous reception of the uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device is stopped to execute step S507.

Step S507, the relay terminal immediately requests the base station for transmitting uplink resources required by all uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device.

For example, the relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, where the resource request message is used to request the base station to transmit uplink resources required by all uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device, and since all uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device are sent by the same smart home device and have the same transmission priority, the resource request message includes a channel identifier of a second-type data transmission channel and uplink resource information, where the channel identifier of the second-type data transmission channel is used to indicate a second-type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used to indicate uplink resources required by all uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device.

Data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the one or more intelligent household devices are collectively called a first type of data transmission channel, data transmission channels between the relay terminal and the base station are collectively called a second type of data transmission channel, and each data transmission channel has a unique channel identifier. A plurality of first-class data transmission channels can be established between the relay terminal and each intelligent household device and are respectively used for transmitting uplink data with different transmission priorities. A plurality of second-class data transmission channels can be established between the relay terminal and the base station, and the first-class data transmission channels correspond to the second-class data transmission channels one to one.

Step S508, the relay terminal immediately requests the base station for transmitting the uplink resource required by the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device.

The relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, wherein the resource request message is used for requesting the base station to transmit uplink resources required by currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment, and the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment are all sent by the same intelligent home equipment and have the same transmission priority, so the resource request message comprises a channel identifier of a second type data transmission channel and uplink resource information, the channel identifier of the second type data transmission channel is used for indicating the second type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used for indicating the uplink resources required by currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment.

Step S509, the relay terminal immediately requests the base station to transmit the uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device and uplink resources required by other uplink data that are currently received.

The relay terminal sends a resource request message to the base station, the resource request message is used for requesting the base station to transmit uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and uplink resources required by other uplink data, the uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and other uplink data are sent by the same intelligent home equipment and have the same transmission priority, the resource request message comprises a channel identifier of a second type data transmission channel and uplink resource information, the channel identifier of the second type data transmission channel is used for indicating the second type data transmission channel between the relay terminal and the base station, and the uplink resource information is used for indicating the uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and the uplink resources required by other uplink data, which are received currently.

After step S507, step S508 and step S509, step S510 is executed.

Step S510, the base station allocates corresponding uplink resources and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal.

For example, when the relay terminal requests the base station for transmitting the uplink resources required by all the uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device, the base station allocates the uplink resources required by all the uplink data of the transmission priority for transmitting the smart home device and sends the uplink resources to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits all the uplink data of the transmission priority of the smart home device to the base station by using the received uplink resources.

When the relay terminal requests the base station for transmitting the uplink resource required by the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment, the base station allocates the uplink resource required by the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and sends the uplink resource to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment to the base station by using the received uplink resource.

When the relay terminal requests the base station for transmitting the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and uplink resources required by other uplink data, the base station allocates the uplink data of the transmission priority of the currently received intelligent home equipment and the uplink resources required by other uplink data, and transmits the uplink data and the other uplink data to the relay terminal, and the relay terminal transmits the currently received uplink data of the transmission priority of the intelligent home equipment and other uplink data to the base station by using the received uplink resources.

The data volume of the uplink data reaching the threshold refers to determining the data volume of all current uplink data (including currently received, stored and/or continuously received uplink data) of the relay terminal in real time in the process of receiving the uplink data, and when the data volume is increased to be equal to the threshold, that is, the data volume reaches the threshold.

In another embodiment of the present application, during the process of executing steps S501 to S511, the relay terminal may also receive uplink data of other transmission priorities sent by the smart home devices or uplink data of any transmission priority sent by other smart home devices at the same time, and since a threshold value for triggering the data amount requesting the uplink resource is set for each uplink data of each transmission priority of each smart home device, the relay terminal performs an independent uplink resource request on the uplink data of other transmission priorities sent by the smart home devices and received at the same time or the uplink data sent by other smart home devices, a process of requesting the uplink resource is substantially the same as the process of requesting the uplink resource for transmitting the uplink data in the embodiment in fig. 5, and details are not repeated here.

In this embodiment, a threshold value for triggering the request of the uplink resource is set for the uplink data of each transmission priority of each smart home device, so as to uniformly request the uplink resources, only when the data amount of the uplink data of the same transmission priority of the same smart home device reaches a preset threshold value, the uplink resources required are requested at one time, and when the data amount of the uplink data of the same transmission priority of the same smart home device does not reach the preset threshold value, the uplink resources are cached first, and when the uplink data of the same transmission priority of the smart home device is received next time and the total data amount reaches the preset threshold value, the corresponding uplink resources are requested, so that the uplink resources are requested immediately when the relay terminal receives the uplink data, the number of requests can be reduced, the resources are saved, the scheduling tasks of the data plane can be reduced, the load of the communication network is reduced, the communication quality is improved, and the reduction of the communication quality is avoided.
