In this embodiment, an antenna control method is provided, fig. 2 is a flowchart of the antenna control method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 2, the flowchart includes the following steps:
step S202, reading first flow transmitted by an opened antenna in a wireless network communication module, wherein the wireless network communication module is arranged in optical fiber network equipment and comprises N antennas, and N is a natural number greater than or equal to 1;
step S204, determining a second flow required by terminal equipment accessed to the wireless network communication module;
step S206, comparing the first flow with the second flow to obtain a comparison result;
step S208, determining the number of turned-on antennas based on the comparison result.
Alternatively, the wireless network communication module may be a communication module based on a WiFi of a wireless network communication technology, and the optical fiber network device may be an ONU device. The terminal equipment can be a mobile phone, a computer, various household appliances and the like.
Alternatively, the embodiment may be applied in a scenario where a user uses a wireless communication network, for example, the terminal device is connected to a wireless communication module on the ONU. Or, the ONU user is externally connected with a wireless router in the actual use process, the wireless function on the ONU is not actually used, or the bandwidth requirement of the connected STA equipment is lower, and the scene can identify the actual WiFi use condition to dynamically turn on or off the WiFi antenna.
Alternatively, the value of N may be determined based on the actual reference scenario or different types of antennas, e.g., the WiFi antennas may be 4×4MU-MIMO or 8×8 MU-MIMO. The transmission traffic per antenna may be 200 megabits. As shown in fig. 3, which is a schematic diagram of a WiFi port of an ONU, wiFi4 introduces multiple in and multiple out (Multiple Input Multiple Output, abbreviated as MIMO) to increase the capacity of a channel, multiple antennas are used at both a transmitting end and a receiving end, the next generation WiFi5 standard is upgraded to MU-MIMO technology, and data can be transmitted and received simultaneously, and multiple antennas can be used simultaneously, i.e. one router can transmit data with multiple devices simultaneously. In addition, according to the technical standard of WiFi alliance, the number of MU-MIMO is increased on the basis of the previous generation technology of WiFi6, and the number of MU-MIMO is increased from maximum 4×4MU-MIMO to 8×8 MU-MIMO.
Alternatively, the terminal device accessing the wireless network communication module may be one or more. The transmission traffic required by each device may or may not be the same. For example, a plurality of terminal devices are connected to one routing device, and the traffic demand of each terminal device may be the same or different. The second flow is calculated as the total flow required by the plurality of terminal devices. The first traffic is the total traffic transmitted by all the antennas that are on.
Alternatively, the wireless network communication module may only turn on one antenna in the initial stage, so as to ensure normal transmission of data. Alternatively, all antennas may be turned off at an initial stage to save power consumption to the maximum extent. In the actual use process, a plurality of antennas are opened one by one according to the flow requirement of the terminal equipment, or all antennas are opened. For example, after a plurality of terminals are connected to the wireless communication module, part of antennas or all antennas are turned on to meet the traffic demands of the plurality of terminals. After the terminal is disconnected with the wireless communication module, part of the antennas are selectively closed according to the flow demand, so that the opening and closing of the antennas are flexibly controlled, and the power consumption is saved as much as possible.
The main body of execution of the above steps may be a specific processor provided in a terminal, a server, a terminal or a server, or a processor or a processing device provided separately from the terminal or the server, but is not limited thereto.
Through the steps, the first flow transmitted by the opened antennas in the wireless network communication module is compared with the second flow required by the terminal equipment accessed to the wireless network communication module, and the number of the opened antennas is determined based on the comparison result. The number of the antennas which can be dynamically adjusted through the identified wireless flow can be effectively reduced under the condition that the wireless performance experience is not influenced, so that the overall power consumption of the optical fiber network equipment is reduced. Therefore, the problem of power consumption of the optical fiber network equipment in the related technology can be solved, and the effects of energy conservation and emission reduction are achieved.
In one exemplary embodiment, before reading the first traffic transmitted by the antenna turned on in the wireless network communication module, the method further comprises:
s11, under the condition that the wireless network communication module is in an open state, determining the running state of the wireless network communication module;
and S12, controlling M antennas in the N antennas to be closed and controlling K antennas to be opened when the wireless network communication module is in a dormant state or the wireless network communication module is not connected with the terminal equipment, wherein K is a natural number smaller than M, and M is smaller than or equal to N.
Optionally, the operation state of the wireless communication module is under different usage scenarios, including but not limited to a sleep state, a power saving state, a normal operation state, a shutdown state, etc. The control of the operational state may be based on different wireless communication devices, e.g. by triggering a state control button in the routing device to control the routing device to enter a dormant state. The routing device may also be triggered to enter a dormant state by traffic monitoring (e.g., in the case of no device connected to the routing device, no traffic demand is detected, and the routing device is triggered to enter a dormant state).
Optionally, the values of M and K may be set according to an actual application scenario, for example, 8 antennas of the wireless communication module are fully opened, but only one terminal device accesses the wireless communication module, and the traffic demand of the terminal device is only 200 megabits. 7 of the antennas can be turned off and only one antenna can be turned on to meet the traffic demand of the terminal device. For another example, in the case where the traffic demand of the terminal device is 500 megabits, 3 antennas may be turned on and 5 antennas may be turned off. For another example, the traffic demand of the terminal device is greater than the total transmission traffic of 8 antennas, and the antennas are required to be fully opened.
Optionally, under the condition that 8 antennas of the wireless communication module are completely closed or only part of the antennas are opened, the wireless communication module can be selectively opened or closed according to the traffic demand of the terminal equipment which is actually accessed, so that the power consumption can be saved in real time.
In one exemplary embodiment, reading a first traffic transmitted by an antenna turned on in a wireless network communication module includes:
s21, receiving a first control instruction;
s22, responding to the first control instruction, and reading first flow transmitted by an antenna started in the wireless communication module.
Optionally, the first controllable instruction includes, but is not limited to, an instruction generated by triggering a state control button, for example, after triggering an energy-saving button on the wireless network communication module, the wireless network communication module enters an energy-saving mode, so that the flow transmitted by the started antennas can be obtained in real time, and the number of the started antennas is controlled.
Optionally, the first controllable instruction includes, but is not limited to, an instruction triggered by the system, for example, in a case that a change of a traffic demand of a terminal device accessed by the wireless network communication module is detected, the system issues the first control instruction, and controls the wireless network communication module to enter the energy saving mode.
Optionally, the wireless network communication module is in a normal operating mode (antenna fully on or antenna fully off) without the power saving button being turned on. The wireless network communication module can be flexibly controlled to enter the saving mode through the control of the first control instruction.
In one exemplary embodiment, determining the number of open antennas based on the comparison result includes:
and S31, when the first flow is larger than the second flow, the antenna which is started by the control part is closed, and at least 1 antenna is controlled to be in the starting state, so that the flow transmitted by the remaining antennas in the starting state meets the flow requirement of the terminal equipment.
Optionally, the fact that the first flow is larger than the second flow can determine that the number of the opened antennas is too large, and resource waste is caused. For example, 8 antennas are fully opened, but only one terminal device is connected, the flow required by the terminal device is smaller than the flow transmitted by 8 antennas, and a certain number of antennas can be closed according to the flow required by the terminal device, so that the purpose of saving energy is achieved.
Optionally, the purpose of controlling at least 1 antenna to be in an on state is to ensure that the wireless communication module is in an operating state, and the terminal device can select to be accessed at any time.
In one exemplary embodiment, determining the number of open antennas based on the comparison result includes:
and S41, controlling the opening of the antennas in the closed state in the N antennas under the condition that the first flow is smaller than the second flow and the second flow is smaller than or equal to the sum of the flows transmitted by the N antennas, so that the flows transmitted by the antennas in the open state meet the flow requirements of the terminal equipment.
Optionally, the first flow is smaller than the second flow, that is, the number of the opened antennas is too small to meet the requirement of the terminal device. For example, 1 antenna is turned on, but a plurality of terminal devices are connected, and the flow required by the terminal devices is greater than the flow transmitted by 1 antenna, so that a certain number of antennas can be turned on according to the flow required by the terminal devices, thereby ensuring the normal transmission of data.
In one exemplary embodiment, before reading the first traffic of the antenna turned on in the wireless network communication module, the method further comprises:
s51, controlling all N antennas to be opened under the condition that the first flow is smaller than the second flow and the second flow is larger than the sum of the flows transmitted by the N antennas.
Optionally, the first flow is smaller than the second flow, and the second flow is larger than the sum of the flows transmitted by the N antennas, so that the excessive access of the terminal device can be determined, the N antennas are all turned on and still cannot meet the requirements, and at the moment, the N antennas are all turned on, so that the data transmission is guaranteed to the greatest extent.
In an exemplary embodiment, after determining the number of open antennas based on the comparison result, the method further comprises:
s61, receiving a second control instruction;
s62, responding to the second control instruction to execute one of the following operations: controlling all the N antennas to be opened; controlling all the N antennas to be closed; and controlling 1 antenna to be turned on, and controlling the rest antennas to be turned off.
Optionally, the second controllable instruction includes, but is not limited to, an instruction generated by triggering a state control button, for example, after triggering the energy-saving button on the wireless network communication module in the case that the wireless network communication module is in the energy-saving mode, triggering the wireless network communication module to enter a normal working mode, for example, controlling the antenna to be fully turned on; controlling the antenna to be completely closed; and controlling 1 antenna to be turned on, and controlling the rest antennas to be turned off.
Optionally, the second controllable instruction includes, but is not limited to, an instruction triggered by the system, for example, in a case that a change of a traffic demand of a terminal device accessed by the wireless network communication module is detected, the system issues the second control instruction, and controls the wireless network communication module to exit the energy-saving mode.
In an exemplary embodiment, the above method further comprises:
s71, acquiring the negotiation rate of the terminal equipment;
s72, under the condition that the negotiation rate is in a change state in a preset period, determining that the opening or closing of the N antennas is in a change state.
Optionally, the factors influencing the negotiation rate of the terminal device are very relevant, but the decisive factor is the current working system of the wlan ap, for example: the 802.11b maximum negotiated rate is only 11Mbps, the 802.11g maximum negotiated rate is 54Mbps, the 802.11n maximum negotiated rate is 600Mbps, the latest 802.11ac maximum negotiated rate is 1.75Gbps, etc. Taking the negotiation rate of 802.11n as an example, common negotiation rates are 65, 72, 135, 144, 150, 270, 300, 450, 600Mbps. The number of antennas turned on can be determined by looking at the change in the negotiated rate of the handset. For example, if the negotiated rate of the handset is lower than the nominal value, it is determined that a portion of the antennas are turned off. The nominal value may be the value of the antenna fully open.
The invention is illustrated below with reference to specific examples:
the embodiment provides an energy saving method based on a WiFi part. The method is mainly applied to low-power consumption scenes of devices such as ONU products supporting WiFi multi-antennas and wireless routers.
The home and abroad operators pay attention to the power consumption of the ONU, and related technologies have power consumption test requirements aiming at different scenes, such as power consumption capacity (P1 state) when running full of service, power consumption capacity (P2 state) when stopping all the service and power consumption capacity (P3) in a shutdown state. The European Union divides the ONU into three states of Off-state, idle-state and On-state, and different states need to realize different power consumption levels, so that corresponding energy-saving measures can be carried out in different working states. However, different operators have different power consumption requirements for ONUs, but the implementation of energy saving is not explicitly described. The ONU is required to support Doze, watch, sleep, and Sleep 3 power saving modes in GPON standard G984.3 and XGPON standard G987.3, and is required to support Watch power saving modes in XGSPON standard G9807.1 and 50GPON standard g.hsp. Although the PON standard defines the method of energy saving interruption and energy saving state machine jump corresponding to different energy saving modes, specific implementation schemes of energy saving in different energy saving states are not explicitly described, and conditions for generating energy saving interruption are not explicitly described. The ONU users are externally connected with a wireless router in the actual use process, the wireless function on the ONU is not actually used, or the connected STA equipment is low in bandwidth requirement, and the scene can identify the actual WiFi use condition to dynamically turn on or off the WiFi antenna.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the WiFi port of the ONU uses multiple antennas at both the transmitting end and the receiving end, and forms multiple channels between the transmissions and receptions.
According to the embodiment, the flow of WiFi is monitored in real time, redundant antennas are closed in a low-flow state, and the working state of the WiFi antennas is dynamically adjusted, so that the purpose of reducing power consumption is achieved, and the power consumption of the ONU is reduced as a whole. And by monitoring the running state of the ONU, when the antenna is not hung down from the equipment or the ONU enters a dormant state, the multi-antenna of the ONU is closed, and only 1 antenna is reserved to normally work, so that the power consumption of the ONU is reduced as a whole.
It should be noted that, the european union divides the ONU into three states, that is, off-state (Off state), idle-state (Idle state), and On-state (On state), and the Off-state (Off state) software and hardware are stopped, and the Idle-state (Idle state) considers that a wireless Access Point (AP) has no STA connected to it, so the WiFi antenna may be turned Off.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 4, the present embodiment provides a method for controlling ONU energy saving, which mainly includes the following steps:
s401, after the ONU is powered on to start the WiFi module, determining whether the ONU enters a sleep mode through scene recognition, if so, entering the step S402, and if not, entering the step S403;
s402: the method has the advantages that a low power consumption mode is entered, redundant antennas are closed, and 1 antenna can be reserved or all antennas can be closed according to actual application scenes;
