Description

561745 A7 B7 V. Description of the Invention (1) Technical Field The present invention relates to the network connection of electronic devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to a network connection between a local electronic device and an external network using a shared gateway. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, the ability to connect to the Internet has grown dramatically, and it has almost touched various electronic devices, such as cell phones, televisions, and stereos. Therefore, the cost and complexity of these electronic devices will inevitably increase, so that they become `` Internet type '' or `` Internet capable ''. There are several technologies that enable electronic devices to have network connectivity, including wireless and wired connections. One example of a wired connection is to use a router to connect to different networks, otherwise they remain separate. The router uses various methods to connect to the network and perform various functions, such as confirming the validity of the data packet, calling a routing table to refer to a data structure, to know where the next step of the packet is, and enumerating the data packet for transmission. Forward data packets and exchange routing information with other routers. Typically, the message to be routed has an associated destination address, called a MAC (Media Access Control) address, which is used by routers to guide the message. The router does not have the wisdom to decide where the message should go, it can only direct the message to the destination where the sender wants the message to arrive. The router can be a wireless router. The wireless router is typically constructed by a computer platform, and Ethernet is connected to a local area network (LAN).

Description of the invention (2), by radio data The machine changes the Ethernet data stream to a radio frequency suitable for wireless transmission. Wireless routers have the same functions as wired routers. They also use MAC addresses to route messages. Please read the notes on the back first and then fill out this page. The wireless system saves a lot of necessary hardware and increases user's mobility. Generally speaking, wireless communication is achieved using infrared or radio waves. I E E E 80 2 · 1 1 specifications provide infrared and RF standards. In the field of radio frequency, two types of standards have been developed, namely, direct sequence, which uses a wide range of frequencies to transmit data, and frequency hopping, which uses frequency and time domain changes to transmit data. Infrared signals cannot pass through walls, closed doors, etc., while radio waves can. Both radio and infrared designs are more expensive because they require additional circuitry and protocol processing to communicate over a wireless network because the system must be compatible with many wide area networks (W A N) and digital standards that use wireless transmission of data. · B1 u e t ο 〇 t h technology is a technical specification for the development of small form factor, low price, and compatibility issues of short-range radio links between pin-sealed portable devices. Bluetooth technology uses a universal bridge to form a data network, a peripheral interface, and a mechanism to connect devices to form a small private special group, which is not related to a fixed network infrastructure. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Figure 1 shows the topology of Bluetooth technology. The devices 1 2 1 to 1 2 4 constitute a piconet 12. Piconet is a general-purpose, low-power, special radio network that includes at least two linked devices, such as a portable personal computer (PC) and a cell phone. However, it can link up to eight devices Knot together. All devices on Piconet are units of the same level, with the same communication connection and implementation. This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) -5- 561745 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 _____B7____ V. Description of the invention (3) In Piconet 1 2 During the piconet connection, the first unit that starts to establish communication acts as the master, and the other units act as slaves. The piconet 12 method of establishing a network connection is as follows. All devices are in STANDBY mode before any network connection is established in the piconet. In this mode, an 尙 unconnected unit periodically `` listens '' for 〃 messages at its defined frequency or its defined frequency hopping sequence. The link program starts from any device and becomes the master. If the address is known, the link is established by a call (PAGE) message. If the address is unknown, the establishment of the link is initiated by an inquiry (INQUIRY), followed by the call message. At the beginning of the call state, the master unit sends 16 identical call message strings on 16 different frequency hoppings. These 16 different frequency hoppings define the called device (slave unit). If there is no response, the main unit transmits the message string in the wake-up sequence on another 16 hops. Typically, the inquiry message is used to find B1 u e t ο q t h devices, including public printers, fax machines, and similar devices with unknown addresses. Once a network connection is established, data is sent to the specified device via the network. Generally speaking, when a device in the piconet 12 needs to establish a forward or return communication, the piconet 12 is established. One of the devices starts to communicate with the other device in the piconet 12; or one of the devices in the piconet 12 starts to communicate with the device in the other piconet. For example, in Figure 通信, communication begins with device 1 21 sending a message to the device in piconet 14. Therefore, the device 12 1 becomes the master unit, and the other devices in the piconet 12, that is, the devices 121, 123, and 124 become slave units. The main unit 1 2 1 establishes the timepiece and frequency hopping sequence to synchronize the piconet 丄 2 ---- I ----- II · I ------ ^ ----- IIII ^^ 1.

Each link 1 2 5 to 12 7 of the piconet 12 includes a logical link control (L L C) and a medium access control (M A C). Each device 1 2 1 to 1 2 4 in the piconet 12 is represented by a MAC address, which is a 3-bit actual address, such as the address used in Ethernet and token ring To distinguish the units participating in the piconet 12. When the round-trip communication between the devices in the piconet 12 stops, the piconet 12 is interrupted. When communication is established on one of the devices, the piconet 12 is established again. However, when the piconet 12 is established again, a different device may replace the device 1 2 1 as the master unit, depending on which device first establishes communication. Similarly, the piconet 14 also includes linked devices 1 4 1 and 1 4 2. In one embodiment, the device 1 41 is a master unit, and the slave unit of the device 14 2. Therefore, the device 1 4 1 in the piconet 14 establishes a timepiece and a frequency hopping sequence to synchronize the slave 1 2 2. The piconets 12 and 14 are independent of each other and do not need to be synchronized. Multiple piconets that are independent and asynchronous, such as piconets 12 and 14, communicate via a network connection 16 and form a discrete network 10. The network connection 1 6 is, for example, I SP (Internet Service Provider). In the structure of Fig. 1, from the perspective of network cognition and capabilities, all devices are equal. The role of each device can be changed. One device can be the master of many slaves, and later can also be the slave of the new master. In other words, every device must have the ability to become the master. In addition, for any two connected devices, § requires a profile (P r 0 f i 1 e), which is a specific protocol. For example, a wireless phone requires a profile of a wireless phone, and a mobile phone requires the paper size of the phone to comply with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) " '---------- -7- (Please read the precautions on the back first ¾ fill out this page) FI equipment ----------------------- # · 561745 Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 5. Description of the invention (5) Side-write; facsimile requires side-write of facsimile, and so on. The conventional channel is typically a combination of software and hardware. It can use different protocols to connect two different networks, or cannot communicate unless the same protocol is used. Some gateways, application gateways, translate protocols in addition to transferring data from one network to another. Other gateways simply forward data from one network to another, without performing protocol translation. In other words, the gateway can be intelligent, can recognize and translate different protocols, or it can be just a foolish channel that can only transfer data to a known address. The conventional gateway should specify the hardware platforms of the two networks, the communication protocols of the two platforms, and the application software to be executed. Generally speaking, the conventional gateway is software that resides on a network server host or application software that resides on a device separate from the network host. In the latter case, the gateway communicates directly with the network host via the Internet or other device. Examples of conventional gateways include Gopher and FTP (File Conversion Protocol), both of which are user / server protocols. The disadvantage of the conventional gateway is that the gateway needs to be changed according to different applications or service providers. Therefore, we need a simple and inexpensive communication system to connect different electronic devices with the network. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A device and method for communicating between a plurality of devices are provided. According to the present invention, a communication device is divided into a plurality of units, and each unit performs a function of the communication device. Establish a network for these units.

For example, the microprocessor 406 can be an 8-bit microprocessor, and the size of the memory 408 should be suitable for the selected feature group. In one embodiment, the application software gives the gateway device intelligence to determine where to route a particular message based on the type of message received. The gateway device 203 also includes a battery (not shown) for providing the power required by the components constituting the gateway device 203. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs In one embodiment, the design of the gateway device 203 looks like a pager (as shown in Figs. 6 to 10). However, in fact, the gateway device 2003 can be any design, and its design typically depends on the required battery size and the convenience requirements of the user carrying the gateway device. In general, there is no restriction on the shape and size of the gateway device package.

Description of the invention (How the gateway device 203 facilitates communication will be discussed in detail later with reference to Figure 5. In general, the gateway device facilitates communication as the main system. Because it is dominated, the gateway device 230 registers the capabilities of each device and stores this information in its memory, so it always knows the number and type of devices within its range and communication capabilities ( For example, the device is turned on and actually linked). Next, the gateway device uses each device type to decide what type of data to route to it. For example, video type data is routed to a television, computer screen, or LCD display, but It will not be routed to the oven, phone or radio. The routing is done using a simple protocol, which will be explained in detail below. Therefore, the gateway device has It is important to note that the gateway device has always been a dedicated master, and it is the only master. Unlike Bluetooth, the role of each device in the piconet can be changed from master to slave, and vice versa.

In particular, one table is used to assign addresses to a certain device, and the other table is used to match addresses to capability characters In another embodiment, the capability characters are also stored in the address table. In this embodiment, if all the bits of the capability characters are zero, the address is not used. However, if not all the bits If all the elements are zero, then the address is in use. Only one table is required to match the capability characters to the address. In general, the device ID can be assigned using any suitable method. In one embodiment, a group ID is assigned to a group The capabilities are essentially the same / dependent devices. Next, the gateway device can broadcast a message to multiple devices. For example, TVs, computer screens, and palmtop computers have video capabilities, so you can assign a shared group ID. Have devices Dependent / independent devices of ID and group ID ignore messages that are not broadcast and messages that are not addressed to it or its group. Dependent / independent devices will only respond to broadcast messages or messages addressed to it or its group. For example, if the message is addressed to a group with video capabilities, the TV and computer monitors will respond, but the stereo speakers will not. The Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs printed the device ID and / or group ID on the gateway device After that, the gateway device stores the device ID and the capability characters of the device into the memory of the gateway device (step 507). In another embodiment, the device table includes the device ID and the corresponding device capability characters It is pre-planned into the memory, instead of being generated by the above-mentioned polling method.

Invention Note (29) It should be noted that simple commands can keep the interface between the gateway device and the dependent / independent device simple. There are no special Internet-protocol commands in Table 1, such as checking E-mUe, executing FTP (File Conversion Protocol) or HTML, or UDP (User Datagram Protocol) because these commands are processed by the gateway device, not by the Internet. Each dependent / independent device in the road processes. Instead, the dependent / stand-alone device is simply viewed with the Display command, for example, E-mile is waiting. Then, the dependent / stand-alone device selectively requests a waiting E-mile with a Receive command. Then, read the E-m i 1 e message from the external network, and send it from the wide-channel device with the T r a n s mi t command, and use the E-mile message as its data. Therefore, although the gateway device handles the difficult task of connecting the dependent / standalone device to an external network or another dependent / standalone device compatible with the dependent / standalone device, the agreement between the dependent / standalone device and the gateway device is simple Enough to keep dependent / stand-alone devices simple, small, and inexpensive, yet powerful enough to satisfy users. Examples of specific applications using gateway devices are described below. The first example is a car connected to the Internet, as shown in Figure 6. The user is listening to the car stereo 6 06 during driving, and the gateway phone 6 2 placed in the rear seat briefcase is receiving an incoming call. The gateway phone 6 0 2 sends a signal to mute the car stereo 6 6 and displays a message, C A L L 〃 on the head-up display 6 0 4. After pressing the ANSWER 〃 button on the car audio 6 0 6 to approve the call and prepare to download the data, the user does not need to hold the phone with his hand, use the microphone (such as car audio 6 0 6) and the call that may be anywhere in the car Talking to each other.

This page is printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and printed by the Consumer Consumption Cooperative-32- 561745 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (30) In the example, the sub-network is composed of a car audio 606, a head-up display 604, and a channel phone 602 as a channel device. The car audio 606 is an independent device, and the head-up The display 604 is a dependent device. Wendao Phone 602 communicates with the cellular / PC base station 608, and routes the phone's messages to the car audio 606 and head-up display 604 in the sub-network. The caller asks the recipient to meet at a restaurant where the recipient has never been. After hanging up the phone, the receiver pressed the VOICE RECOGNITION " button on the car stereo 6 06, and said A DIRECTIONS " and the name of the restaurant. The direction of travel appears in text format on the head-up display 604. The head-up display 6 0 4 indicates the next intersection to turn into, and the arrow indicating the turn appears in the field of view through the windshield. In this scenario, the gateway phone 602 is a gateway device that communicates with the ISP 6α〇 and retrieves the forward direction 6 1 2 from the Internet. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Another example is the Internet-connected house shown in Figure 7. When the user is watching TV 702 and receiving sound via the home stereo 704, the gateway telephone 7 0 6 on the user's belt receives a call transmitted by the caller via the cellular PCS base station 7 10. The gateway phone 7 0 6 sends a signal to mute the user's audio 7 0 4 and sends a signal to display "INCOMING CALL" and the caller's ID information on the user's TV screen 7 0 2. The caller ID provides information related to the caller. Phone users typically get caller ID services at a small additional cost. Under the current wired standard, the frequency-encoded digital caller ID information is -33- This paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economy A7 -—__ B7 V. Description of the invention (31) Transfer between the first and second ringtones. Therefore, before the user normally answers the ringing telephone, the information related to the caller will be received, stored and displayed by the caller's ID device. Typically, caller ID information is recorded by the caller ID device whether or not a call associated with the caller ID is answered. Typically, the conventional caller ID device is in a telephone unit or connected to the phone via a wired link. The caller ID device typically receives, stores, and displays digital caller ID information. According to the present invention, the gateway device receives the caller ID information, stores it in the memory of the gateway device, and wirelessly transmits it to the TV 7 2 for display. Therefore, no dedicated caller ID device is needed, or the phone itself does not need to add additional hardware. In one embodiment, the gateway device stores video or audio and video related to the incoming call. This video image can be a digital picture, a silhouette file, a wave (for example * .wav) or a * .mp3 file. In other embodiments, the display device stores caller i d information. Then, the user presses the PHONE 〃 button on the remote control device 708 to answer the call. The gateway phone 7 0 6 receives the answer signal from the remote control device 7 0 8 and negotiates the video format of the call with the cellular PCS base station 7 10 to make the video format compatible with the TV 7 2. If the data format is compatible with TV 702, the caller's image will be displayed in the screen's sprite window (or full screen if the TV does not have a sprite function). In one embodiment, the voice of the conversation is sent from the speaker 704, and a microphone in the remote control device 708 is used.

Description of the invention (32) 7 0 2 A map will appear with the caller's location clearly marked. If the user gets up and leaves the room, they can continue talking on the closest stereo, TV, or personal computer without using the phone. In the above example, the sub-network first includes a gateway phone 706, a television 702, and a stereo 704 in the living room. When the user leaves the living room, that is, the gateway device moves, the TV 702 and the audio 704 are out of the effective range and out of the sub-network. However, when the user walks into another room, such as a bedroom, another TV or stereo or personal computer enters the range, and logs in to the gateway phone 7 06 to form a new secondary network. The gateway phone 7 06 will route video data that was originally routed to the living room TV 70 2 and now route to the bedroom computer. In the home network environment, the principle of the gateway can be applied to home entertainment devices, home appliances, security systems, and other electronic devices, forming a very simple wireless network in between, and using a gateway device to connect all These devices access external networks via cables, phones or antennas. The next example is a photographer, who carries a cellular PCS tongue as a gateway device, as shown in Figure 8. After receiving a voice call notification on his cellular PC phone 8 0 4, the photographer can take photos from the digital camera 80 2 via its gateway phone 8 0 4 wirelessly on the Internet Transfer to destination 8 0 6. The camera simply transmits data. At the same time, the gateway phone 804 negotiates with the Internet through the cellular / PCS system 808 and sends the photo to the place it should be. In this example, the gateway phone 804 is a gateway device, and the digital camera 802 is an independent device in the secondary network. If you have a digital camera, please read the notes on the back before writing III on this page. 4 This paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) -35- 561745 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (33) 802 is in the range of the photographer's personal computer 800, and can use the same protocol to transfer photos to the personal computer 800, and use the personal computer 800 as a gateway device. The development cost of a combined cell / PCS camera must be much higher than that of a separate unit. Therefore, it is not only lower cost to develop separate units, that is, peripheral units, but also upgrade one by one. Another example is on-demand music shown in FIG. 9. While listening to the mini disc or Walkman 9 02 music, the user can preview the latest music released by the source 9 06 on the Internet via ISP 9 0 8 and press the mini disc or Walkman Listen to the buttons on 9 0 2 to buy newly published music. After purchase, the song is downloaded from the source 9 0 6 to the gateway device 9 0 4, which is negotiated and routed to the mini disc or Walkman 9 2 2. Mini discs can be replaced with small flash memory cards or flash cases, which save music and play on demand. / Another example is the restaurant guide shown in Figure 10. P D A 1002 can obtain the location information from the gateway device 104 (from the CD M A infrastructure) and request entertainment information for the area from the existing Η T M L system.
