detailed description

In the following, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

A control method of a controller provided in this application can be applied to an application environment as shown in FIG. 1.

The terminal 102 communicates with the controller 104. The communication method is wireless communication, including at least 3G, 4G, Enocean, Zigbee, and Z-Wave, and is not limited to the above wireless methods. The terminal 102 may be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, notebook computers, smart phones, tablet computers, and portable wearable devices. The controller 104 may be used to control household appliances and the like, such as a controller for controlling an air conditioner, a television remote control, and the like.

Please refer to FIG. 2 together. An embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a controller. The method includes:

Step S100: Obtain location information shared by terminal devices within a preset range from the current device;

Step S200: Determine positioning information of the current device according to the position information.

Step S300: Determine whether the distance between the current device and the controller reaches a preset distance according to the positioning information;

Step S400: If the distance is greater than the preset distance, send a control instruction to the controller.

In step S100, the current device may be a terminal such as a mobile smart device, and may be a mobile phone, a notebook, a wristband, or the vehicle-mounted terminal.

When the smart device is moving, it can establish a connection with other terminal devices within a certain range from the smart device to communicate with nearby terminal devices. The terminal device includes a smart terminal device, and can share its own location information through communication; in addition, the terminal device can only share its own location information. The preset range may be a preset limited range, for example, within a distance of 5m, 10m from the current device; it may also be set according to the communication distance of the communication method selected by the current device, such as the Bluetooth module in the current device The connection range of the infrared module, etc.

In step S200, the position of the controller may be stored in a map of the current device in advance, or may be obtained by a real-time positioning method. The current device can analyze the distance between the positioning information and the controller according to the positioning information of the current device and the position of the controller, and compare it with a preset distance. The preset distance may be a preset safety distance or a reminder distance. For example, a geo-fenced area can be established around a certain distance from the controller. Specifically, the geo-fence area is a virtual fence surrounding a virtual geographic boundary. When a terminal such as a mobile phone enters or leaves the geofence area or is active in the area, the mobile phone can receive notifications and warnings, that is, the user automatically registers when entering or leaving an area.

In step S300 and step S400, the current device analyzes the acquired distance and compares it with the preset distance. If the acquired distance is greater than the preset distance, the remote controller is adjusted. Specifically, when the acquisition distance is greater than the preset distance, the current device may issue a command to control the controller, thereby controlling various devices corresponding to the controller, to achieve the effect of energy saving. For example, when the current device is outside the area where the controller is located, the controller can turn off the air conditioner or adjust the air conditioning operation mode to achieve energy saving.

In one embodiment, the step S100 includes:

Specifically, low power consumption means that when the current device communicates with other devices, it consumes relatively little traffic, power, and other related quantities.

For example, the current device may communicate with surrounding terminal devices through Bluetooth low energy communication to obtain location information shared by the terminal devices. Due to the Bluetooth low energy technology, the Bluetooth module will be in sleep mode most of the time. When the activity occurs, the device will automatically wake up and send messages to the gateway or smart device. The maximum power consumption does not exceed 15 mA, the average power consumption is about 1 mA, and the power consumption during use is reduced to one tenth of that of traditional Bluetooth. In addition, this low-power device also has stability, wireless coexistence, and integration.

In the low power consumption method described in the present application, current devices use low power consumption to communicate, and their energy consumption will be far lower than GPS positioning; low power transmission methods include point-to-point mode (AD-HOC) and Bluetooth low energy. At the same time, big data is used to monitor the switching frequency to determine the period of time for users to access location information. Only during peak periods, the low-power transmission mode is activated to further reduce battery power consumption.

In one embodiment, the preset range may be 100m-1000m.

In this embodiment, the current device can obtain the location information shared by the terminal device within 100m from the current device; it can also obtain the location information shared by the terminal device within 1000m from the current device. The selection of the preset range can be based on Actually need to set such as communication distance.

In one embodiment, please refer to FIG. 3 together. The step S200 includes:

Step S210: Obtain position information of a terminal device whose signal strength in the current device meets a preset threshold;

In step S220, it is determined whether there is a terminal device with the same shared location among the terminal devices satisfying the preset threshold;

In step S230, if it exists, the location information shared by the terminal devices with the same shared location is used as the positioning information of the current device.

In step S210, there will be many terminal devices near the current device. For the location information of the terminal device to be shared with the current device, the signal strength can be selected to be larger, and the location information is more accurate.

In step S220, in order to improve the accuracy of the positioning information of the current device, it is necessary to select from the obtained plurality of position information, and determine whether there is a terminal device with the same shared location among the terminal devices that meet the preset threshold.

In step S230, if it exists, the location information shared by the terminal devices with the same shared location is used as the positioning information of the current device. The current device selects the location information of nearby terminal devices with high signal strength. For example, the five locations with the highest signal strength are obtained. However, there may be some inconsistencies in the five location information. The location information is A1-A5. , Then we analyze and determine the five location information in the terminal device. If the location information of 3-5 terminal devices is the same, this location information is used as the current location information. In this way, the location of the current device can be verified for the shared location, which improves the accuracy of the current device positioning.

Among them, the signal strength threshold is the location information set by the current device. This threshold is set to obtain the highest accuracy as positioning information from the shared location information, which not only improves the positioning accuracy, but also better controls Controller.

In one embodiment, please refer to FIG. 4 together. The step S300 includes:

Step S310: Obtain the geographical position of the controller in the offline map, where the offline map is preset in the current device;

Step S320: Obtain a distance between the current device and the controller according to the geographic position and the positioning information.

Specifically, in step S310, the geographic location in the offline map refers to the location and storage of the controller using the map when the current device is in the same geographic location as the controller, and the control can be learned when offline. Geographical location. The map includes Baidu map, Gaode map, or any other form of map that can be obtained and displayed online through a terminal. The current device analyzes and processes the geographical position and positioning information of the previously stored controller to obtain the distance relationship between the current device and the controller.

In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 5, the step S400 includes:

Step S410, continuously acquiring the distance between the current device and the controller for a preset number of times;

In step S420, if the distance acquired each time increases sequentially, and the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the distance reaches a preset threshold;

Step S430, sending a shutdown instruction to the controller to shut down the controller.

For example, the current device acquires the distance once every minute, and the current device can collect ten times in a row. If the value of the distance increases or decreases first and then increases, and the maximum and minimum values differ by more than 1KM, then the current device and the controller The distance between them is getting farther and farer, it is determined that the current device is away from home, sending an instruction to shut down the controller, and terminating the determination. Conversely, if the value of the distance decreases in order, increases first and then decreases, and the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value is less than 1KM, it is determined that the current device is home, and a command is sent to regulate the controller.

In the control method of the controller, by acquiring location information shared by terminal devices within a preset range from the current device, and then determining the positioning information of the current device according to the location information, the effective use of environmental resources is achieved and the loss is reduced; Then, according to the positioning information, it is determined whether the distance between the current device and the controller reaches a preset distance; if the distance is greater than the preset distance, a control instruction is sent to the controller to implement real-time control Remote control.

It should be understood that although the steps in the flowchart of FIG. 6 are sequentially displayed according to the directions of the arrows, these steps are not necessarily performed sequentially in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated in this document, the execution of these steps is not strictly limited, and these steps can be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least a part of the steps in FIG. 6 may include multiple sub-steps or stages.
