Definitions
- the present invention relates to equipment which can be activated by a remote means for the transmission of information via the Internet.
- PCT patent WO0013403 relates to a system and a method intended to carry out a callback by telephone in connection with a network such as the Internet in order to ensure recording and presentation of invoices in real time.
- the system includes a web server, a client computer, a corporate database, and a communications switch.
- the process comprises the following stages: electronic registration with an electronic service provider via the network, allocation to the customer of a unique telephone number for call back establishment, call establishment, calculation of the price of the telephone call and presentation to the customer of information on the price in real time.
- the activation of the network allows the customer to subscribe to a reminder and to carry it out immediately after registration.
- Price information can be personalized according to the customer through the use of price tables associated with the various components of the overall price (telephone rate) of the telephone call.
- Patent WO0000908 relates to a server which allows on-demand access to web pages stored remotely and independently of a service provider. web pages.
- the web page service provider provides an index containing a reference to more detailed web pages.
- the more detailed web pages are stored locally at the third party providing the web pages, for example, on a computer located at the customer's site.
- the web page service telephone to the computer located at the customer, downloads the requested web page and provides it to the user.
- the index can be based on geographic information, thus providing access to web pages based on the location parameter of the client and the user.
- the patent WO9927697 relates to a device and a method which make it possible to verify whether a customer is authorized to use a telephone gateway offered by a telephone gateway service provider.
- the client activates a link, comprising the telephone number of a subscriber B, on a web page of a web server; a verification function checks whether the client is authorized to use the telephone gateway; and a telephone call is established with the gateway based on said verification.
- the object of the present invention is to allow the remote transmission of data in the preferential form of a web page, of an electronic mail or of an FTP transfer, by activation by an event such as a clock or an incoming call.
- the applications relate in particular to the remote collection of data from meters, automatic distribution equipment or control or monitoring equipment that does not have a permanent IP address.
- the invention relates, according to its most general meaning, to a method for activating an information communication function by remote equipment [for example an electric meter or a water meter, a automatic vending machine or a programmable automaton] connectable to the Internet network and to a telecommunication network [by a telephone line or by a wireless telephone network such as the GSM network], said equipment comprising means for implementing Internet protocols, signal processing means for the effective transmission of physical signals on the telecommunications network and an interface with the telecommunications network capable of detecting an incoming call, the method comprising a step of activating said equipment connectable by a local or remote event [a telephone call or a timeout for example], and the connection to an Internet service provider ISP in response to said activation step characterized in that the method comprises a step of reading a temporary IP address assigned by the access provider during the connection stage and: either a stage of transmission of said temporary IP address to an Internet terminal or an information processing system, followed by a step of reading WEB pages stored locally by said remote equipment by said Internet
- it includes an initial step of verification by the remote equipment of the incoming call.
- the step of verification by the remote equipment of the incoming call consists in verifying whether the identifier of the incoming call [for example the "Caller ID ”or phone number] is a pre-registered ID.
- the event triggering the connection to the access provider is a clock.
- the equipment comprises a WEB page server for the preparation of a page comprising at least one prerecorded part and at least one part containing a variable updated by a measurement means associated with said equipment.
- the equipment comprises a monolithic electronic component integrated into the Internet comprising an architecture of the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) type for connection to a telecommunications network and the exchange of data in accordance with at least one part. protocols.
- DSP Digital Signal Processor
- the invention also relates to equipment comprising a means for access to the Internet network and the implementation of Internet protocols, a means for access to a telecommunications network [by a telephone line or by a wireless telephone network. such as the GSM network], and an interface with the telecommunications network capable of detecting an incoming call, as well as a means for detecting an incoming call, and activating the connection to an Internet service provider FAI as well as possibly a memory for recording the temporary IP address assigned by the access provider during the connection step, and the transmission of said temporary IP address to a remote Internet terminal or to a processing system some information.
- the equipment includes a memory for recording the components of at least one web page.
- it includes a means for manufacturing a web page comprising components recorded in random access memory and components originating from a data acquisition means associated or integrated with the equipment.
- FIG. 1 represents a flow diagram.
- FIG. 1 represents the flow of data between the different devices: a remote device (1) a server of an Internet access provider (2) - a control station (3).
- the remote device (1) is a device comprising an interface for access to a telephone network on the one hand and for access to the Internet network on the other hand.
- the means of access to these two networks are not described in detail in the context of the present invention because they are part of the state of the art.
- the remote equipment can be constituted by an electricity or gas meter that can be read remotely, an automatic distributor or a programmable automaton, or any metrology equipment requiring verification or localized information retrieval.
- Such equipment is advantageously equipped with an integrated monolithic electronic component for connection to a telecommunications network and data exchange in accordance with at least part of the Internet protocols comprising an architecture of the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) type.
- the component according to the invention further comprises an analog / digital conversion component for the connection with a telecommunications network.
- This component is for example a DSP component comprising modem functions in which a program for the execution of the reduced Internet protocols is also loaded.
- shared RAM random access memory
- the modem program controls the connection to the physical network connecting the equipment to the internet access point (2).
- the program for the execution of Internet protocols processes both the low layers (PPP, IP, TCP) and the high layers (HTTP, SMTP, P0P3, FTP) of all Internet protocols.
- the program loaded in the DSP therefore contains several protocols among the following: PPP,
- IP IP
- CP part of HTTP, for controlling a simple web server
- the data are processed according to a particular algorithm avoiding the use of a plurality of working memories.
- the equipment does not have a permanent IP address. It is activated by an incoming call generated by the control station (3). (Arrow 4)
- the equipment (1) checks the incoming call, for example the Caller ID or any other information available in the call waiting signal to check if the caller has an access right.
- the equipment opens a session by connecting to the server (2) of the access provider (Arrow 5).
- the access provider assigns a temporary IP address, which is transmitted to the remote device (1).
- This information is communicated to the control post (3) by the telephone link and the Internet network (Arrows 5 and 6).
- the control station (3) can then access the equipment web page server (1) via the access provider (2) to access the web page recorded by the remote equipment (1), comprising information fixed and variable information.
