Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of LoRa (local area network) ad hoc networks, in particular to a LoRa equipment ad hoc network system based on a self-adaptive time synchronization scheme.
Background
LoRa is a technology which is specially used for long-distance wireless transmission in the field of the Internet of things in a low-power-consumption wide area network, and the technology meets the requirements of low power consumption and long distance, so that the technology is more and more widely applied in the era of rapid development of the Internet of things. The LoRa network system mainly comprises a gateway, a concentrator (or a repeater), nodes and the like, and the traditional LoRa networking mode mainly comprises star networking and LoRa Mesh networking with a topological structure. Mesh networking is mainly used in a large-scale network structure, and a special algorithm is adopted to realize relay among nodes, so that the transmission distance is long, the development difficulty is high, the wireless data interference is easy, and the layout requirement on terminal nodes is high; the LoRa star networking mode is simple, the development difficulty is relatively small, but the requirement on the gateway is high.
In the prior art, a data link layer of a standard LoRa networking system is based on a LoRaWAN protocol, a LoRaWAN gateway mostly adopts an eight-channel SX1302 chip of SEMTECH company, and a frequency hopping technology is adopted to realize management of a plurality of node communication. However, the cost of the LoRa WAN gateway is too high, and in some application scenes with low-frequency acquisition and relatively small node number, a single-channel or double-channel LoRa gateway based on an ad hoc network protocol can be adopted. However, the single-channel gateway is half-duplex communication, and only one node can receive data at the same time, so that if the data are not managed, data collision easily occurs when a plurality of nodes report the data, and a large number of packet loss phenomena are caused. In order to solve the above problems, a gateway polling node or a node active reporting mode is often adopted. When the number of the nodes is large, the mode period of gateway polling is too long and the occupied channel resources are large; the reporting mode of the nodes has higher requirement on the system time synchronization.
However, most LoRa nodes do not have RTC clock modules, and the only available clock is the timer of the node controller, so time synchronization of multiple nodes and gateways in the LoRa ad hoc network is a critical issue.
