Description

This technical solution relates to telecommunication devices providing messaging via wireless. The described device can be used to transmit various kinds of information messages (for example, advertising) or software applications to users.

Data transmission systems are known, in particular, a system for providing a message on a graphic display of a wireless device in communication with an application download server, this system contains one or more wireless devices, each wireless device includes a computer platform and a graphic display, and each wireless device selectively implements communication with a wireless network, and one or more application download servers that selectively communicates with a wireless network, and each the application download server selectively communicates with one or more wireless devices and selectively downloads data to it, in which, when a wireless device tries to contact at least one application download server via a wireless network, the system transmits a message to the computer platform of the wireless device over the wireless network, and the wireless device displays the transmitted message on its graphic display, and in which when

When a wireless device attempts to communicate wirelessly with at least one application download server, the message is transmitted to the wireless device from the second server via the wireless network [1].

A known system for providing an information service of exhibitions via wireless communication comprising wireless connection devices for preparing a connection with a wireless terminal located in the field of operation of the device and receiving information from the network, an information server, which serves to enter the output information of the network [2].

Also known is a mobile communication system for providing users with multimedia services via Bluetooth technology, comprising a main server for providing multimedia services via an Internet connection, a plurality of Bluetooth access points containing a Bluetooth module and connected to the server via the Internet, a portable terminal containing its own Bluetooth module, this, the portable terminal has Internet access through a mobile communication network, where the main server transmits multimedia information to the portable terminal and whether through a mobile network or through one of the Bluetooth access points in response to a service request received from a mobile network or from a Bluetooth access point [3].

Closest to the claimed technical solution from these sources is a mobile communication system for providing users with multimedia services via Bluetooth technology [3], which with the claimed technical solution has such common features as a server for providing multimedia services via an Internet connection, many Bluetooth access points containing a Bluetooth module and connected to the server via the Internet, at least one portable terminal.

This device performs the operation of transmitting various kinds of information messages or software applications and is equipped with various means for receiving and transmitting information. However, this device has certain disadvantages. In particular, it is limited speed and energy consumption.

The solved and achieved technical task of the claimed technical solution is to expand its functionality, increase speed and reduce energy consumption through the use of the latest wireless technology standards and various combinations of these standards.

The indicated technical problem is solved in that the data transmission system comprises a server, at least one access point, comprising a group of at least two wireless communication modules of various standards and connected to the server via the Internet, at least one portable terminal.

The group of wireless modules is a module of the standard Bluetooth, Zigbee and Wibree in various combinations.

The diagram shows a data transmission system.

The data transmission system consists of a server 1, which is a typical computer system unit, at least one access point 2 and at least one portable terminal 3.

Access point 2 contains a group 4 of wireless communication modules, which in various embodiments of the device may contain various combinations of these modules, consisting of module 5 of the Bluetooth standard, module 6 of the Zigbee standard and module 7 of the Wibree standard.

Thus, the system can interact with portable terminals 3 operating in various communication standards, and not only with

working in a single specific standard (for example, Bluetooth), as, for example, in the prototype mentioned in the description.

The use of more than one module in the group of 4 wireless communication modules allows these modules to synchronously work with the same number of portable terminals 3, as in the case of using one module, but at a much higher data rate, increased by increasing the number of wireless communication modules . Due to the use of the least energy-intensive module, which is part of group 4 of wireless communication modules (for example, the Wibree standard module consumes significantly less energy than the Bluetooth module), when the system detects portable terminals 3 that support both of these standards, a reduction in energy consumption is achieved.

Access points 2 are connected to server 1 via a wired or wireless connection (for example, WiFi, GSM / GPRS or Ethernet) via the Internet 8 via TCP / IP.

The portable terminals 3 are connected to the access points 2 via wireless radio communication of various standards, such as Bluetooth, Zigbee or Wibree, and the communication standard is selected by means of a program embedded in the access points 2 depending on which communication standard is supported by an individual portable terminal 3.

The data transmission system operates as follows.

Server 1 transmits an informational message or another file to one or several access points 2. Using this program, access point 2 automatically searches for portable terminals 3 located in its coverage area with support for wireless standards supported by access point 2 itself and, through the program embedded in it, transmits a message or file received from server 1 to the found portable terminals 3.

In certain operating modes of the system, it is also possible to send a request to send a message or file from portable terminal 3 to server 1, as a result of which the requested content is also transmitted to portable terminal 3 from which the request was sent, according to the above scheme.
