The wireless communication network is preferably configured to add the interworking device (IWF, Inter-Working Function) to the infrastructure of the network for the existing voice call to enable the wireless data communication.

In addition, an inter-working function (IWF) may include a frame relay and an X.25 / PRI connection function for connection to another network.

That is, circuit data service in connection with other networks through IWF (Inter-Working Function) connection, public switched telephone network (PSTN) connection, internet connection, and public switched data network (PSDN) connection And packet data services.

Inter-working function (IWF) can provide asynchronous data service (Service Option 4, 12) through the public switched telephone network (PSTN) connection, PC communication connection through the asynchronous data service Access to the Internet through a PPP service provider.

The Inter-Working Function (IWF) may be connected to a device providing X.25 through a Public Switched Data Network (PSDN) to provide an X.25 packet data service.

Of course, the terminal 100 according to the present invention is connected to an interworking function (IWF, Inter-Working Function) coupled to the terminal 100 is a wired subscriber line or a telephone network (PSTN) of a mobile switching center (MSC) It is also possible to transmit and receive a signal having a data structure according to the present invention through a circuit switching scheme with an open / close control server 142 connected to a Public Switched Telephone Network.

That is, a signal having a data structure according to the present invention can be transmitted and received through circuit switching and packet switching.

Hereinafter, for convenience of description in the description of the present invention, a packet switching scheme will be described, and a packet switching scheme based on voice transmission (see FIG. 4) and data transmission based on voice transmission will be described. Packet switching schemes (see FIG. 5) may be distinguished.

4 is a view showing the configuration of the opening and closing control system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Hereinafter, a system for opening and closing a locking device based on a packet exchange scheme based on voice transmission will be described with reference to FIG. 4.

Referring to FIG. 4, an opening and closing control system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base station system (BTS) 405, a base station controller (BSC) 410, and a mobile switching (MSC). a center 415, an inter-working function (IWF), and an open / close control server 142.

As described above, the wireless data transmission method using the terminal 100 may be divided into a line data method and a packet data method.

The packet switching method is a communication method in which a packet switch selects an optimal communication path according to a destination and sends data configured in a packet form.

The communication path is set according to the situation of the network at each time, and it is possible to connect to the open / close control server as the destination via several packet exchangers from the originating source to the destination.

That is, the packet data having a data structure according to the present invention is preferably in the form of a datagram, and the packet data is transmitted from a base station (BTS) using a mobile communication network in a network card mounted on the terminal 100 (BTS). 405, a base station controller (BSC) 410, a mobile switching center (MSC) 415, and an interworking function (IWF, inter-working function) 420 through the opening and closing control server 142 ) Can be accessed.

When the terminal 100 transmits the opening / closing control signal according to the present invention to the base station (BTS), the base station (BTS) 405 receives a call connection request signal, and then the base station controller The terminal 100 is connected to a mobile switching center (MSC) 415 via a base station controller (410).

Here, the base station (BTS) 405 performs a function of connecting the terminal 100 to a mobile switching center (MSC) 415, and the base station (BTS) 405 ) May include a transceiver, an antenna, a control device, a data terminal and a power supply.

The base station controller (BSC) manages a plurality of base stations (BTSs) connected to the base station controller (BSC).

A mobile switching center (MSC) is connected to the terminal 100 and the network interworking device (IWF) in response to the opening and closing control signals received through a base station system (BTS) and a base station controller (BSC). Connect the Inter-Working Function.

A mobile switching center (MSC) handles calls and calls from the terminal 100 and operates a network interlocking device with a central control function to allow all base stations (BTSs) to operate efficiently. In addition to connecting with the Interworking Function (IWF), it can also be connected to a switch in a public switched telephone network (PSTN).

In the method of transmitting wireless data through the wireless terminal 100, it is the mobile switching center (MSC) and PDSN that serve as a switch in the public network. The PDNS will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

A mobile switching center (MSC) is composed of a control unit, a call unit and peripherals, and can also collect billing data after the call is completed.

Inter-Working Functions (IWF) interoperate with existing voice systems, control, mobility management, and physical access functions from the terminal 100 through a mobile switching center (MSC), and interconnect with the Internet. It has a function to interlock.

Looking specifically at the packet-switched method based on the voice transmission as described above, there are X.25, frame relay, ATM and the like.

X.25 is based on a point-to-point interface between Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and Data Circuit-terminating Equipment (DCE). Here, the data terminal equipment (DTE) is a network access equipment provided by a network operator, and the data terminal equipment (DTE) and data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE) are connected to a packet switch.

Frame relay identifies the address through DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier), and the problem that comes from using different DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier) can be solved by using frame relay switch. In addition, through one physical connection connected to the frame relay network, the point-to-point connection can be maintained through various systems and virtual lines.

Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a method of dividing all information into fixed-length blocks called ATM cells and transmitting them sequentially. The ATM cell has 53 bytes, of which the header is 5 bytes and the information field is 48 bytes. This fixed-length data string becomes a unit of multiple exchanges and corresponds to a general packet.

In the header, a virtual channel identifier (VCI) for identifying a connection to which a cell belongs, a virtual path identifier (VPI), a cell priority (CLP) indicating whether a cell is allowed to be discarded during congestion, and a network control information for distinguishing Functions include cell information identification (PT) and header error detection and control (HEC).

Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switching network is composed of two levels of networks, virtual path (VP) and virtual channel (VC), and by using the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM, asynchronous transfer mode), opening and closing control High transmission efficiency of packet exchange between the server 142 and the terminal 100 can be maintained. In addition, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the switching delay line use efficiency, which is a disadvantage of circuit switching.

5 is a view showing the configuration of the opening and closing control system according to another embodiment of the present invention.

The data transmission method illustrated in FIG. 4 is a method of transmitting data on a voice transmission basis. In other words, the interworking function (IWF, Inter-Working Function) separates the line data and packet data processing. Such a structure is often unreasonable for data transmission as a data transmission method based on a voice call.

In contrast, the diagram shown in FIG. 5 is a structure in which the base station can directly access the Internet.

Circuit switching is inherently a network for voice transmission, and there is a problem in that an inefficiency of continually occupying a circuit exclusively occurs even when actual data transmission is not performed when circuit switching is used for data exchange.

That is, the two parties wishing to perform data communication using the circuit switched method must have the same communication speed, code system, and communication protocol, and this circuit switched method, which is classified as a telephone network (PSTN), may provide a high speed. Can't.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, it is preferable that the base station classifies the circuit switched scheme and the packet switched scheme. That is, in the data transmission, by transmitting a packet on a data transmission basis, it is preferable that data is transmitted and received on an independent data network as shown in FIG. 5.

A base transmission system (BTS) 500 determines whether to transmit to a PDSN or a mobile switching center (MSC) using a service option received from the terminal 100.

The circuit data exchange method has a structure that is connected to a public network (PSTN), which is a public switched telephone network (PSTN) via a base station and a switch. That is, in the configuration diagram as shown in FIG. 4, wireless data is transmitted in a voice-oriented system structure.

However, in the data transmission scheme of FIG. 5, the line data such as voice uses an existing structure, and the packet data is directly connected from the base station to the Internet network.

Hereinafter, a detailed description will be given with reference to FIG. 5.

Referring to FIG. 5, a packet data transmission structure in a data transmission based on a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a base station system (BTS) 500, a base station controller (BSC) 510, and a packet. A packet control unit (PCF) 515 and a public data switched network (PDSN) 520.

The terminal 100 transmits an open / close control signal to a base station (BTS) 500.

After receiving the call connection request, the base station (BTS) 500 determines whether data transmission or voice transmission is performed using the open / close control signal of the terminal 100. As a result of the determination, if the data is transmitted, the open / close control signal is connected to the packet control unit (PCF) 515 via a base station controller (BSC) 510.

Here, the base station (BTS) 500 performs a function of connecting the terminal 100 and the packet control device 515, the base station (BTS, Base Transmission System) 500 is a transceiver, an antenna, Control devices, data terminals, power supplies, and the like.

The base station controller (BSC) 510 manages a plurality of base station systems (BTSs) 500 connected to the base station controller (BSC).

The packet control unit (PCF) 515 may provide a private IP to the wireless terminal 100 together with packet control, and then connect to the internet network using the private IP.

The terminal 100 transmits a PDSN to the terminal 100 in response to an opening / closing control signal received through a base station system (BTS) 500 and a base station controller (BSC) 510. 520).

PDSN (520) is responsible for the interface between the two networks between the base station (BTS, Base Transmission System) (500) and the Internet network (525). That is, the data link layer from the terminal 100 is terminated and routed to a higher layer protocol on the data network.

In this case, as a method of connecting to a data network, in case of Simple IP, the connection is directly made to the Internet network 525, and in case of Mobile IP, it is connected to a home agent.

That is, the base station (BTS) 500 confirms the access to the terminal 100, and performs a function of connecting the terminal 100 to the PDN 520.

The PDSN 520 includes a control unit, a communication unit, and a peripheral device, and may also have a function of collecting billing data for a call after the call is completed.

In FIG. 5, two types of IP granting schemes, namely, simple IP and mobile IP, may be provided to transmit packet data.

A mobile IP is a method of giving a fixed IP to the terminal 100, and a simple IP is a method of temporarily receiving and using a fixed IP from the PDSN 520 without a fixed IP.

In the simple IP method, a temporary IP is given to a terminal 100 connected from a packet control unit (PCF) 515.

The PDSN 520 connects the terminal 100 to the Internet network by converting the private IP address into a public IP address of the Internet. By using such a simple IP addressing method, it is possible to share a limited public IP address of the Internet.

As described above, when the simple IP method is used, the PDNS 520 may be converted to a public IP address while using a private IP address.

Mobile IP, on the other hand, is an addressing method that allows a notebook user to use the network on another company's network without changing the value of the system's network-related parameters, that is, the IP address or host address. .

Mobile IP consists of two parts: Mobile IP agents and mobile nodes.

The mobile IP agent provides a software router service that routes all packets that need to be delivered to registered mobile nodes.

Mobile nodes are client-side modules that change the connection point from one subnet to another. In general, the mobile node resides in intelligent RAM, and a mobile IP agent resides in each subnet.

6A to 6E are diagrams illustrating an opening and closing control method using Bluetooth according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6A, an opening and closing control connection structure using Bluetooth according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

Hereinafter, although FIG. 6A illustrates the present invention based on a local area network based on Bluetooth, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned Bluetooth. In addition to the Bluetooth technology, a technology used for short-range wireless data communication may be connected to the open / close control device through an Infrared Data Association (IrDA), a wireless LAN (IEEE802.11), a shared wireless access protocol (SWAP), or the like.

Bluetooth uses radio frequencies in the 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band to enable wireless data communication even in the presence of obstacles. The maximum transmission speed of the Bluetooth is 1Mbps, the transmission distance is about 10m radius, and if there is an output amplifier can extend the transmission distance up to 100m.

In addition, Bluetooth can transmit and receive radio waves using a frequency hopping spread spectrum technology that sets 79 channels having a bandwidth of 1 GHz in the 2.4 GHz band and changes channels by 1600 times per second.

SWAP is highly practical in that it is a network system that can connect up to 127 home appliances and information devices at data rates of 1Mbps-2Mbps without any inconvenience depending on the location of devices. However, the SWAP is also a radio frequency (RF) -based technology has a high probability of error, and as the number of access devices increases, the communication speed is lowered and the probability of error increases.

The IrDA method is similar in concept to Bluetooth or SWAP. Although the data transfer rate is higher than Bluetooth at 4Mbps, the maximum transmission distance is 1-5m, and there is a disadvantage that communication is impossible if there is a shield that infrared signals cannot pass through.

Hereinafter, a description will be given of the opening and closing control method using Bluetooth, but the present invention is not limited to the opening and closing control method using the Bluetooth.

Referring to FIG. 6A, a plurality of terminals 100 and an opening / closing control server 142 form a piconet around the opening / closing control server 142.

Here, the piconet refers to one network in which up to seven slaves can communicate with each other through a master.

Hereinafter, the master is an opening and closing control server 142 according to the present invention, the opening and closing control server 142 may communicate with the terminal 100 via a Bluetooth access point. In addition, the slave refers to the terminal 100 according to the present invention.

A maximum of seven terminals 100 may be combined with the access point, and the network configured as described above is defined as a piconet. The piconet is preferably composed of up to seven terminals 100 in one open / close control server 142.

The open / close control server 142 uses a polling technique to control the connection with the terminal 100. Each piconet has a different frequency hopping sequence. The terminal 100 participating in the same piconet is synchronized with the leap row.

Scattered Net consists of a plurality of piconets. Members of each piconet in the scatternet may have only one 1 MHz hop channel, and may configure the scatternet around the open / close control server 142.

The terminal 100 may be connected to the open / close control server 142 by a Bluetooth method. The open / close control server 142 performs a short-range communication with the terminal 100 through the access point 600 coupled to the open / close control server 142 by a Bluetooth method.

6B is a diagram illustrating a signaling flow for forming a piconet between the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

As described above, the open / close control server 142 according to the present invention corresponds to a master, and the terminal 100 according to the present invention corresponds to a slave.

First, it is assumed that the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 are in a standby state.

In operation 610, the open / close control server 142 requests a connection to the terminal 100. The open / close control server 142 queries the terminal 100 to access a piconet managed by the terminal 100 using an access code (IAC) among the access codes.

In step 612, the terminal 100 retrieves a connection request message. In response to detecting the access request message from the open / close control server 142, in step 614, a response message corresponding to the request is transmitted to the open / close control server 142. Through this process, the open / close control server 142 obtains information about a device address and a clock of the terminal 100.

In operation 615, the open / close control server 142 calls the terminal 100 using a device access code (DAC) in the access code 601, and in operation 616, the terminal 100 detects the call message.

In operation 617, the open / close control server 142 transmits a response message to the call to the open / close control server 142.

After receiving the call response message, the terminal 100 transmits an opening / closing control response message in step 618, and in step 619, the opening / closing control server 142 and the terminal 100 are connected to form a piconet.

6C is a diagram illustrating a Bluetooth protocol stack according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The protocol of Bluetooth is the HID and RFCOMM that define the interface between L2CAP, which is a link manager that defines the configuration of the radio frequency (RF) layer that defines the physical layer, the baseband that defines the hopping pattern, and packet configuration, and the host system thereon. Divided into parts.

The radio frequency (RF) layer defines a physical layer, and the baseband layer defines a hopping pattern and the like. L2CAP performs link management.

Hereinafter, the stack structure of the Bluetooth protocol according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 6C.

Referring to FIG. 6C, the protocol stack according to the present invention includes a baseband layer 650 corresponding to a physical layer, a link management protocol (LMP) layer 645 for controlling an asynchronous link, an HCI layer 645, and a host interface layer. 635, L2CAP layer 630, network layer 625 and higher protocol or application layer 620, and the like.

When transmitting a data signal, an L2CAP layer (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) 630 is used instead of the LMP layer 645, and according to the present invention, the L2CAP layer 630 is used for signaling of an asynchronous link. .

When the piconet composed of the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 is formed, the open / close control server 142 periodically polls the terminal 100 forming the piconet to form a transmission channel to generate a data signal. Send and receive Hereinafter, channel formation and transmission and reception of multimedia data will be described.

6d is a diagram illustrating a channel setting process according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 undergo a channel setting process through signaling for transmitting and receiving a data signal according to the present invention.

According to the invention, the data signal uses an asynchronous connection (ACL). Formation of the channel may be initiated by the master open / close control server 142 or may be initiated by the slave terminal 100.

Hereinafter, a process of setting a channel between the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 will be described with reference to FIG. 6D.

As described above, signaling is performed through the L2CAP layer between the open / close control server 142 and the master. According to the Bluetooth method according to the present invention, both the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 may transmit a channel setting request message.

6d illustrates a process of initiating a channel by a master.

Referring to FIG. 6D, first, a process of starting a channel in the open / close control server 142 will be described.

The open / close control server 142 transmits a channel setting request signal in step 660, and in step 665, the terminal 100 transmits an acknowledgment or disapproval message in response to the signal. The channel establishment request message also carries variables defining the type of packet, the use code, and the like.

When the channel is initiated by the terminal 100, if there is a difference in the following parts, other processes are the same.

Unlike the case in which the opening / closing control server 142 requests the channel setting, the information about the time and the transmission slot may not be included in the channel setting request message of the terminal 100. Therefore, the information is determined by the opening and closing control server 142, and transmitted in the approval or disapproval message.

After the channel setting process, the condition of the channel setting can be changed.

The setting channel condition is also changed through the L2CAP between the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 which is the terminal 100.

The change request of the channel condition may be initiated by the open / close control server 142 or the terminal 100. However, when the terminal 100 requests a change in the channel condition, the terminal 100 cannot request a change in a predetermined matter such as a time and a condition for the transmission slot.

First, the procedure for requesting the change of the channel condition in the open / close control server 142 is as follows. When the opening / closing control server 142 requests the channel condition change in step 670, the terminal 100 transmits an approval or disapproval message in step 675.

Similarly, the terminal 100 may request a channel condition change.

When the terminal 142 requests the channel condition change in step 670, the open / close control server 142 transmits an approval or disapproval message in step 675.

6E illustrates the structure of a packet used in Bluetooth according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6E, the Bluetooth packet is composed of an access code 680, a header 685, and a payload 690.

The access code 680 is used for signaling of the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100, and the header 685 performs the address, packet type, flow control, and the like of the terminal 100. The payload 690 includes data information.

The data signal transmission according to the present invention is performed through the ACL link. Instead of transmitting the packet every predetermined time period, the packet is irregularly transmitted with the permission of the open / close control server 142.

Packet transmission uses a frequency hopping spread spectrum method, and a packet exchange between the open / close control server 142 and the terminal 100 uses a TDD method. Frequency hopping is changed on a packet basis. In other words, the transmission frequency changes every packet.

7A is a diagram illustrating a connection structure of an open / close control server through a short message service according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Short Message Service (SMS) is a type of wireless data communication service that can transmit simple text messages using a mobile phone system.
