The satellite positioning unit 314 may receive Global Positioning System (GPS), Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), Beidou Satellite Navigation System (BDS) or Global Satellite Navigation System (GNSS, GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou) signals to perform satellite S1-based positioning function.

透過上述的網路定位單元313及衛星定位單元314,可使通訊定位模組310具有定位功能,而在一般的市區中,基地台數目較多,是以可以讓網路定位單元313的定位較準確,且由網路定位單元313執行定位功能的耗電量較低,因此可優先使用網路定位單元313定位。而在郊區基地台數目較少處,網路定位單元313的定位精度較低,故此時可以改使用衛星定位單元314來執行定位功能。 Through the above-mentioned network positioning unit 313 and satellite positioning unit 314, the communication positioning module 310 can be provided with a positioning function. In general urban areas, there are a large number of base stations, so that the positioning of the network positioning unit 313 can be performed. It is more accurate, and the power consumption of the positioning function performed by the network positioning unit 313 is low. Therefore, the network positioning unit 313 can be used for positioning. However, in a small number of suburban base stations, the positioning accuracy of the network positioning unit 313 is low, so at this time, the satellite positioning unit 314 may be used to perform the positioning function.

在其他實施例中,可以讓通訊定位模組310更包含語音通話功能,而可以撥打語音求救,以讓消防救護單位利用增強型求救電話號碼技術(Enhance-911)取得追蹤定位穿戴式裝置100的位置資訊。 In other embodiments, the communication positioning module 310 may further include a voice call function, and a voice call may be made for the fire rescue unit to use enhanced call-for-number technology (Enhance-911) to obtain the tracking and positioning of the wearable device 100. Location information.

在此要特別說明的是,本實施例中的作業系統300是使用SIM5310晶片連接天線而可以達到上述的所有功能(包含通話功能),在其他的實施例中,亦可以使用其他具有類似功能的晶片,或是使用多個元件組合而使其達到本發明中之作業系統300的功能及目的,包含上述但不以此為限。 It should be particularly noted here that the operating system 300 in this embodiment uses a SIM5310 chip to connect the antenna to achieve all the above functions (including the call function). In other embodiments, other similar functions can also be used. The chip, or a combination of multiple components to achieve the functions and objectives of the operating system 300 in the present invention, includes the above but is not limited thereto.

請參閱第3圖,並請一併參閱第2圖,其中第3圖繪示依照本發明另一實施方式之一種電源管理方法600的步驟流程圖。電源管理方法600包含步驟610及步驟620。 Please refer to FIG. 3, and please also refer to FIG. 2, wherein FIG. 3 illustrates a flowchart of steps of a power management method 600 according to another embodiment of the present invention. The power management method 600 includes steps 610 and 620.

於步驟610中,進行一基本資料取得作業,其中控制模組320取得電池400之電壓(BV)。 In step 610, a basic data obtaining operation is performed, in which the control module 320 obtains the voltage (BV) of the battery 400.

於步驟620中,進行一模式選擇作業,控制模組320依據電壓選擇通訊定位模組310的作動模式,其中當電壓小於低臨界值時,控制模組320使通訊定位模組310進入一主從模式,其中於主從模式中,控制模組320每隔一長眠時間啟動通訊定位模組310以確認是否收到來自雲端C1的定位要求訊息,藉此決定是否啟動通訊定位模組310的定位功能抓取位置資訊及傳送位置資訊予雲端C1。 In step 620, a mode selection operation is performed. The control module 320 selects the operating mode of the communication positioning module 310 according to the voltage. When the voltage is lower than a low threshold value, the control module 320 causes the communication positioning module 310 to enter a master-slave. Mode, in the master-slave mode, the control module 320 activates the communication positioning module 310 at a long sleep time to confirm whether it receives a positioning request message from the cloud C1, thereby determining whether to enable the positioning function of the communication positioning module 310 Capture location information and send location information to Cloud C1.

藉此,模式選擇作業中,控制模組320可選擇通訊定位模組310的作動模式,讓追蹤定位穿戴式裝置100可以在節省能源盡量充電的情況下,仍可以主從定位,而具有於雲端C1更新位置資訊的功能,並可以增長追蹤定位穿戴式裝置100的使用時間。後面會詳述電源管理方法600的細節。 In this way, in the mode selection operation, the control module 320 can select the operation mode of the communication positioning module 310, so that the tracking and positioning wearable device 100 can still perform master-slave positioning while saving energy and charging as much as possible. C1 has a function of updating the location information and can increase the usage time of tracking and positioning the wearable device 100. Details of the power management method 600 will be described later.

更詳細的說,於步驟610中,控制模組320電性連接電池400而可以取得電池400之電壓,且控制模組320亦可以取得能源補充機構500的一充電功率(PC)、作業系統300的一工作消耗功率(PW)及一休眠消耗功率(PS)。其中充電功率是由能源補充機構500提供之補充電力的電流大小計算而來,工作消耗功率是指通訊定位模組310中定位功能開啟時的消耗功率,休眠消耗功率是指通訊定位模組310中定位功能關閉時的消耗功率。 In more detail, in step 610, the control module 320 can be electrically connected to the battery 400 to obtain the voltage of the battery 400, and the control module 320 can also obtain a charging power (PC) of the energy supplementing institution 500 and the operating system 300. A working power consumption (PW) and a sleep power consumption (PS). The charging power is calculated by the current of the supplementary power provided by the energy supplementing agency 500. The working power consumption refers to the power consumption when the positioning function is turned on in the communication positioning module 310, and the sleep power consumption refers to the power consumption in the communication positioning module 310. Power consumption when positioning function is off.

而於步驟620中,控制模組320是依據電壓來選擇通訊定位模組310的作動模式,而由於本實施例中的電池400是鋰電池,故電壓的高臨界值可設定為3.8伏特,而低臨界值可設定為3.6伏特,是以在電壓大於3.8伏特、介於3.6-3.8伏特之間以及電壓小於3.6伏特時,通訊定位模組310會作動於不同的作動模式。 In step 620, the control module 320 selects the operation mode of the communication positioning module 310 according to the voltage. Since the battery 400 in this embodiment is a lithium battery, the high threshold value of the voltage can be set to 3.8 volts, and The low critical value can be set to 3.6 volts, so that when the voltage is greater than 3.8 volts, between 3.6-3.8 volts, and the voltage is less than 3.6 volts, the communication positioning module 310 will operate in different operating modes.

詳細而言,當電壓小於低臨界值(3.6伏特)時,需要降低作業系統300的耗電量,以避免沒電。故如上面所述,控制模組320使通訊定位模組310進入主從模式,此時定位功能會被長時間關閉,只有訊息接收單元312會被定時開啟以確認是否收到定位要求訊號,一但收到定位要求訊號,控制模組320即打開通訊定位模組310的定位功能以取得位置資訊,並使資料發送單元311將位置資訊發到雲端C1。 In detail, when the voltage is less than a low critical value (3.6 volts), the power consumption of the operating system 300 needs to be reduced to avoid power loss. Therefore, as described above, the control module 320 causes the communication positioning module 310 to enter the master-slave mode. At this time, the positioning function will be turned off for a long time. Only the message receiving unit 312 will be turned on periodically to confirm whether a positioning request signal is received. However, after receiving the positioning request signal, the control module 320 turns on the positioning function of the communication positioning module 310 to obtain the position information, and causes the data sending unit 311 to send the position information to the cloud C1.

反之,當電壓大於高臨界值(3.8伏特)時,代表電池400的電力足夠,控制模組320每隔一休眠時間啟動定 位功能以使通訊定位模組310作動於一正常模式,其中休眠時間小於長眠時間。而在此正常模式下,休眠時間可設定為90分鐘,因此當90分鐘到達,不需確認訊息接收單元312,而是直接開啟定位功能取得位置資訊,並將位置資訊傳送給雲端C1,故雲端C1所接收到的位置資訊可以被定時更新。 Conversely, when the voltage is higher than the high threshold (3.8 volts), it means that the battery 400 has sufficient power, and the control module 320 starts to determine the voltage every other sleep time. The bit function enables the communication positioning module 310 to operate in a normal mode, wherein the sleep time is shorter than the long sleep time. In this normal mode, the sleep time can be set to 90 minutes, so when 90 minutes arrive, there is no need to confirm the message receiving unit 312. Instead, the positioning function is directly turned on to obtain the location information, and the location information is transmitted to the cloud C1. The location information received by C1 can be updated regularly.

而當電壓介於高臨界值及低臨界值之間時(3.6-3.8伏特),控制模組320可加長休息時間得到一長休息時間,且長休息時間不大於長眠時間。詳述之,當電壓介於高臨界值及低臨界值時代表電力開始下降,有可能是耗電量高於充電量所造成,因此會先加長休息時間以減少系統於長時間耗量,例如先將休息時間加長一基礎時間而得到長休息時間,控制模組320會以此長休息時間來預先計算作業系統300的總耗電量,此總耗電量為消耗功率x長休息時間+工作消耗功率x定位功能開啟時間,另外,控制模組320會以充電功率計算充電量,故充電量為充電功率x(長休息時間+定位功能開啟時間)。計算完成後,控制模組320會比較充電量與總耗電量,若計算結果是此段時間的充電量會高於總耗電量,則以此長休息時間開始運作,意即,控制模組320每隔此長休息時間自動喚醒定位功能作動及傳送位置訊息,直到電壓高於高臨界值再轉為正常模式。反之,若總耗電量仍高於充電量,會再將長休息時間加長(再以基礎時間加長)另得新的長休息時間再來進行計算,長休息時間最多只能與長眠時間相當,而僅管此時的長休息時間相當於長眠時間,但與主從模式不同之處在於,控制模組320每隔此長休息時 間會自動喚醒定位功能作動及傳送位置訊息,而非如主從模式以收到定位要求訊息為先決條件。 When the voltage is between the high critical value and the low critical value (3.6-3.8 volts), the control module 320 can extend the rest time to obtain a long rest time, and the long rest time is not greater than the long sleep time. To elaborate, when the voltage is between the high and low thresholds, it means that the power starts to fall. It may be caused by the power consumption being higher than the charge. Therefore, the rest time will be increased to reduce the system's long-term consumption. For example, First increase the rest time by a basic time to obtain a long rest time. The control module 320 will use this long rest time to pre-calculate the total power consumption of the operating system 300. This total power consumption is power consumption x long rest time + work Consumption power x the time when the positioning function is turned on. In addition, the control module 320 calculates the charging amount based on the charging power, so the charging amount is the charging power x (long rest time + positioning function on time). After the calculation is completed, the control module 320 compares the charging amount with the total power consumption. If the calculation result is that the charging amount during this period will be higher than the total power consumption, it will start to operate with this long rest time, which means that the control module The group 320 automatically wakes up the positioning function and transmits position information every this long rest time until the voltage is higher than a high threshold and then returns to the normal mode. Conversely, if the total power consumption is still higher than the charge amount, the long rest time will be lengthened (the base time will be longer) and another new long rest time will be calculated. The long rest time can only be equivalent to the long sleep time. Although the long rest time at this time is equivalent to the long sleep time, it is different from the master-slave mode in that the control module 320 rests every such long time. It will automatically wake up the positioning function to actuate and send position information, instead of receiving the positioning request message as a prerequisite as in the master-slave mode.

請參閱第4圖,並一併參閱第2圖及第3圖,其中第4圖繪示依照本發明另一實施方式之一種電源管理方法600的方塊流程圖。由此方塊流程圖可知,當作業系統300開始運作時,即開使操作步驟610,進行基本資料取得作業,控制模組320會取得現時點電池400的電壓(BV),以及取得現時間的充電功率(PC),並載入事先預算好之工作消耗功率(PW)及休眠消耗功率(PS),接著開始操作步驟620,進行一模式選擇作業,控制模組320會依據電壓選擇作動模式。 Please refer to FIG. 4, and refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 together, where FIG. 4 is a block flowchart of a power management method 600 according to another embodiment of the present invention. From the block flow chart, it can be known that when the operating system 300 starts to operate, the operation step 610 is started to perform the basic data acquisition operation. The control module 320 will obtain the current voltage (BV) of the battery 400 and the current time charge. The power (PC), and the work power consumption (PW) and sleep power consumption (PS) budgeted in advance are loaded. Then, operation step 620 is started to perform a mode selection operation, and the control module 320 selects an operating mode according to the voltage.

當電壓大於3.8伏特時,通訊定位模組310作動於正常模式,控制模組320每隔休眠時間啟動定位功能進行主動定位及回傳位置資訊;當電壓介於3.6-3.8伏特,先讓休眠時間增加10鐘(基礎時間)並開始以基本資料預算耗電量及充電量,直到耗電量大於充電量或長休息時間等於長眠時間,再開始讓控制模組320每隔長休息時間啟動定位功能進行主動定位及回傳位置資訊。 When the voltage is greater than 3.8 volts, the communication positioning module 310 operates in the normal mode, and the control module 320 activates the positioning function for active positioning and returns position information every sleep time; when the voltage is between 3.6-3.8 volts, let the sleep time first Add 10 minutes (basic time) and start to estimate the power consumption and charging amount based on basic data until the power consumption is greater than the charging amount or the long rest time is equal to the long sleep time, and then start to let the control module 320 start the positioning function every long rest time. Perform proactive positioning and return location information.

當電壓小於3.6伏特時,控制模組320停止通訊定位模組310的定位功能,並每隔長眠時間確認定位要求訊息,若有定位要求訊息再啟動定位功能進行主從定位及回傳位置資訊。 When the voltage is less than 3.6 volts, the control module 320 stops the positioning function of the communication positioning module 310, and confirms the positioning request message every long sleep time. If there is a positioning request message, the positioning function is activated to perform master-slave positioning and return position information.

在此要特別說明的是,主動定位不需以收到定位要求訊息為啟動定位功能的先決條件,而主從定位需以收到定位要求訊息為啟動定位功能的先決條件。 It should be particularly noted here that active positioning does not need to receive the positioning request message as a prerequisite for starting the positioning function, and master-slave positioning needs to receive the positioning request message as a prerequisite for starting the positioning function.

請復參閱第3圖,電源管理方法600更包超步驟630。於步驟630中,進行一定位選擇作業,通訊定位模組310包含網路定位單元313及衛星定位單元314,網路定位單元313訊號連接至少一網路基地台M1,當網路定位單元313訊號連接的網路基地台M1數目小於一預設值或在需要高精度定位時,由衛星定位單元314提供定位功能。而當在非高精度定位需求情況下,可讓通訊定位模組310預設以網路定位單元313提供定位功能;而在網路定位單元313訊號連接的網路基地台M1數目小於預設值(例如2個)或在需要高精度定位時,再由衛星定位單元314提供定位功能,以避免耗電。 Please refer to FIG. 3 again, the power management method 600 further includes a super step 630. In step 630, a positioning selection operation is performed. The communication positioning module 310 includes a network positioning unit 313 and a satellite positioning unit 314. The signal of the network positioning unit 313 is connected to at least one network base station M1. When the signal of the network positioning unit 313 is When the number of connected network base stations M1 is less than a preset value or when high-precision positioning is required, the positioning function is provided by the satellite positioning unit 314. In the case of non-high-precision positioning, the communication positioning module 310 can be provided with the network positioning unit 313 to provide positioning functions by default; and the number of network base stations M1 connected to the signal of the network positioning unit 313 is less than the preset value (For example, two) or when high-precision positioning is required, the positioning function is provided by the satellite positioning unit 314 to avoid power consumption.

另外,若是或天候不佳、建築物、隧道、遮蔽衛星訊號時,不論網路定位單元313連接到的網路基地台M1數目是否大於或等於預設值,皆由網路定位單元313提供定位功能,其亦可避免衛星定位單元314搜尋衛星信號而耗電。又或者在當電池電壓在高臨界值以上,且衛星信號未被遮蔽時又欲得到高精度定位座標時,可以透過定位要求訊息或自遠端登入管理平台,命令追蹤定位穿戴式裝置100啟動衛星定位單元314,取得高精度位置資訊。 In addition, if it is poor weather, buildings, tunnels, or satellite signals, regardless of whether the number of network base stations M1 connected to the network positioning unit 313 is greater than or equal to the preset value, the network positioning unit 313 provides positioning. Function, which can also prevent the satellite positioning unit 314 from searching for satellite signals and consuming power. Or when the battery voltage is above a high threshold and the satellite signals are not obscured and high-precision positioning coordinates are desired, you can use the positioning request message or log in to the management platform remotely to instruct the tracking wearable device 100 to start the satellite The positioning unit 314 obtains high-precision position information.

由於通訊定位模組310包含網路定位單元313及衛星定位單元314,且預設可以是由網路定位單元313提 供定位功能,因此事先預算好之工作消耗功率可以是以網路定位單元313定位時的耗電量進行計算,但不以此為限。 Since the communication positioning module 310 includes a network positioning unit 313 and a satellite positioning unit 314, the network positioning unit 313 may be provided by default. It provides positioning function, so the power consumption of the work budgeted in advance can be calculated based on the power consumption of the network positioning unit 313 during positioning, but it is not limited to this.

由上述的實施方式可知,本發明具有下列優點。 As can be seen from the above embodiments, the present invention has the following advantages.
