具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本公开作进一步的详细说明。可以理解的是,此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用于解释相关发明,而非对该发明的限定。另外还需要说明的是,为了便于描述,附图中仅示出了与有关发明相关的部分。
需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本公开中的实施例及实施例 中的特征可以相互组合。下面将参考附图并结合实施例来详细说明本公开。
图1示出了可以应用本公开的资产管理方法的实施例的示例性系统架构。
如图1所示,系统架构可以包括机柜和机器人。每个机柜内部署有数十个计算机,而每个机房内又有数百个机柜。机器人是可以移动的巡检机器人,其底盘装有轮子或履带。
机柜和机器人上分别安装有无线通信模块,可进行信息交互。机器人上的无线通信模块还可接收管理人员的巡检指令。巡检指令包括了规划路线和停留的位置,例如巡检坐标(x1,y1)、(x2、y1)…。机器人通过自身的导航模块和行驶记录判断出到达停留的位置后通过无线通信模块广播发送资产盘点指令。机柜可接收到资产盘点指令,然后执行RFID扫描过程,获得计算机标识后反馈给机器人。机器人再将接收到的计算机标识与预先规划的计算机列表进行匹配,生成资产盘点报表。机柜的具体操作过程见步骤201-204。机器人的具体操作过程见步骤301-304。
应该理解,图1中的机柜和机器人的数目仅仅是示意性的。根据实现需要,可以具有任意数目的机柜和机器人。
继续参考图2,示出了根据本公开的资产管理方法应用于机柜的一个实施例的流程200。该资产管理方法,包括以下步骤:
步骤201,接收来自机器人的资产盘点指令。
在本实施例中,资产管理方法的执行主体(例如图1所示的机柜)可以通过无线连接方式从巡检机房的机器人接收资产盘点指令。机柜是经过改造的机柜,安装了无线通信模块,从而可以无线通信的方式与机器人交互信息,无线通信可采用蓝牙、近场通信等方式。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,资产盘点指令可包括机柜标识。由于无线信号的覆盖范围较大,机器人在发送资产盘点指令时会有多个机柜接收到。为防止重复进行资产盘点,可在发送资产盘点指令时指定要盘点的目标机柜,即,产盘点指令包括机柜标识。这样接收到盘点指令的机柜会将指令中的机柜标识和本地存储的机柜标识 进行匹配,如果一致,说明该资产盘点指令的目标是自己,如果不一致,则说明此次不需要进行资产盘点。
可选地,一条资产盘点指令中可包括至少一个机柜标识。机柜标识和机柜在机房中的位置有关。机器人可以在到达巡检坐标位置时,获得该位置处机器人的无线信号能覆盖的机柜标识,进行批量的盘点。例如,机器人到达坐标(x1,y1)时发送包括机柜A、机柜B、机柜C、机柜D的资产盘点指令,机器人到达坐标(x2,y1)时发送包括机柜E、机柜F、机柜G、机柜H的资产盘点指令。
步骤202,扫描贴附在机柜中的各计算机侧面的RFID标签。
在本实施例中,机柜不是传统意义的机柜,而是经过改造的机柜。图4所示的所有模块是位于机柜内部的,是对现有机柜进行的改造。改造后的机柜中每台计算机的侧面贴有标识计算机身份的RFID标签。可在机柜的侧面安装至少一根用于扫描RFID标签的天线。天线的数量取决于覆盖范围,一个机柜侧面所有天线的总的覆盖范围为整个机柜的RFID标签。这样可以通过扫描RFID标签来确定出机柜里有哪些计算机。无线射频识别即射频识别技术(Radio Frequency Identification,RFID),是自动识别技术的一种,通过无线射频方式进行非接触双向数据通信,利用无线射频方式对记录媒体(电子标签或射频卡)进行读写,从而达到识别目标和数据交换的目的。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,为了确定计算机的位置,则在机柜每个U位的侧方,放置低功率RFID天线,调节天线辐射功率使扫描距离控制在5cm左右,保证不会扫到相邻U位的计算机。机柜内部完成对42个U位的计算机扫描后,位于机柜内部的处理器处理扫描结果,并将此机柜的处理结果绑定机柜编码ID通过图4的无线通信模块传输给机器人,无线通信模块可以采用蓝牙、lora等近场通信手段。所以此位置使用两组天线,即位于金属网内部U位侧方的RFID天线,位于机柜外部的无线通信模块(Lora、蓝牙等)。
步骤203,接收RFID标签反馈的信号,识别出各RFID标签对应的计算机标识。
在本实施例中,RFID标签接收天线发出的射频信号,凭借感应电 流所获得的能量发送出存储在芯片中的产品信息(Passive Tag,无源标签或被动标签),或者由标签主动发送某一频率的信号(Active Tag,有源标签或主动标签),天线接收反馈的信号,交由读写器解码后得到各RFID标签对应的计算机标识。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,每个计算机对应一个RFID标签和一根天线,由于天线的位置固定,则通过依次扫描RFID标签,可得到计算机标识和位置的对应关系。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,如果某根天线扫描RFID标签后未收到反馈,则还可重复扫描预定次数后,再认定该天线不存在与之对应的计算机。
步骤204,向机器人发送识别出的各RFID标签对应的计算机标识。
在本实施例中,机柜通过无线通信模块将识别出的各RFID标签对应的计算机标识发送给机器人,由机器人收集整理出资产盘点报表。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,机柜存储了机柜标识,向机器人发送计算机标识的同时,还将机柜标识一同发送,以区分出不同机柜的数据。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,由于天线和RFID标签是一一对应配置的,则机柜可根据天线的位置确定出接收到的RFID标签反馈信号的位置,因此在解码出计算机标识的同时还确定出了计算机的位置。机柜可将计算机标识、计算机的位置都发给机器人。可选地,还可将机柜标识、计算机标识、计算机的位置都发给机器人。
继续参考图3,示出了根据本公开的资产管理方法应用于机器人的一个实施例的流程300。该资产管理方法,包括以下步骤:
步骤301,接收包括规划路线的巡检指令。
在本实施例中,资产管理方法的执行主体(例如图1所示的机器人)可以通过无线连接方式从管理员的终端接收到巡检指令。巡检指令中指示出规划路线。规划路线除了行驶路线之外还包括扫描地点,即巡检坐标。机器人行驶的规划路线跟机房的过道有关,路径规划时要做到不重不漏,行驶路线最短。
步骤302,按照规划路线行驶,在规划路线指定的扫描地点向机 柜发送资产盘点指令。
在本实施例中,机器人需要在巡检坐标处停留,向机柜发送资产盘点指令后,接收机柜反馈的计算机标识,还可接收计算机的位置。然后继续按规划路线行驶到下一个巡检坐标处停留,继续获取巡检坐标附近机柜内的计算机标识。巡检坐标之间的间距可根据无线通信模块的覆盖范围来确定。例如,如果无线通信模块的覆盖范围为10米,则可将巡检坐标之间的间距设置为16米,从而可以不重不漏的进行检测,既可减少停留,又能避免重复批量处理,提高识别速度。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,在规划路线指定的扫描地点向机柜发送资产盘点指令,包括:根据扫描地点获取机柜标识;向机柜发送包括机柜标识的资产盘点指令。在规划巡检路线时,就已经规划好每个扫描地点的覆盖范围,确定出覆盖范围内的机柜。因此发送资产盘点指令时,在指令中包括机柜的标识,就能让对应的机柜进行资产盘点。为了防止重复扫描,当接收到某个机柜反馈的计算机标识后,不再发送包括该机柜的机柜标识的资产盘点指令。
步骤303,接收机柜识别出的计算机标识。
在本实施例中,在每个扫描地点都能接收到无线通信模块覆盖范围内的机柜反馈的计算机标识。如果机柜中的天线和RFID标签是一一对应的,则还可获得计算机的位置和计算机标识的对应关系。
步骤304,将机柜识别出的计算机标识与预先规划的计算机列表进行匹配,生成资产盘点报表。
在本实施例中,进行资产盘点前已经有了预先规划的计算机列表,计算机列表中标明了机房中应该存在的计算机的标识。如果机器人最后收集的计算机标识不能与计算机列表中的计算机的标识匹配,则说明资产异常。例如,如果计算机列表中存在计算机007,但机器人从机柜收集的计算机标识中没有007,则说明设备丢失。
可选地,计算机列表中按机柜统计,则计算机列表中还列出了每个机柜标识和其存放的计算机的标识的对应关系。这样可按机柜进行盘点,查看每个机柜中设备丢失情况,能够快速定位出缺失设备的机柜。例如,机柜A中找不到计算机列表中列出的计算机006,则说明 机柜A中计算机丢失。
可选地,计算机列表中还记录了计算机在机柜中的位置。机柜上报的计算机标识中也可包括对应的位置。可将上报的位置和计算机列表中的位置进行比对,如果某个位置处没有识别出计算机标识,则说明设备丢失,如果某个位置处识别出的计算机标识与计算机列表中的标识不一致,则说明设备放错位置,如下表所示。
Figure PCTCN2021114534-appb-000001
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,如果没有预先规划的计算机列表,则可直接根据所获得的计算机标识、位置生成计算机列表。例如,通过扫描机柜A中的计算机侧面巾的RFID标签,可得到机柜A中所有计算机标识。可选地,如果每个计算机对应一根天线,则还可获得计算机的位置,生成的计算机列表也就包括位置。
进一步参考图4,作为对上述各图所示方法的实现,本公开提供了机柜的一个实施例,该机柜与图2所示的方法实施例相对应。
如图4所示,本实施例的机柜包括:RFID标签、天线、射频模块、读写器、处理器、无线通信模块。天线复用选择电路是可选地,射频 模块可以直接与天线连接。在没有天线复用选择电路时,RFID标签无需与天线一一对应,一根天线可以扫描多个RFID标签,得到多个计算机标识,但无法确定计算机的位置。具体过程如下所示:
无线通信模块接收来自机器人的资产盘点指令。处理器向读写器发送读取指令。读写器收到指令后向射频模块发送读取指令。射频模块收到指令后将指令转换为调制的射频信号通过天线辐射到空间。RFID标签受到天线辐射后对天线的辐射信号进行调制,并向空间发送调制后的辐射信号。天线接收RFID标签调制后的辐射信号,通过射频模块处理转换为数字信号后发送给读写器。读写器识别出RFID标签对应的计算机标识并上报给处理器。通过无线通信模块将识别出的计算机标识发送给机器人。
可选地,机柜还可包括天线复用选择电路。机柜中每个计算机卡槽对应一根天线。处理器通过控制天线复用选择电路依次连通各天线的电路,使得各天线依次扫描对应的RFID标签。这样可以确定出计算机的位置与计算机标识的对应关系。以机房内特定机柜A为例,机柜上计算机卡槽有A-01~A-11,每个计算机侧面贴有RFID标签,RFID标签与计算机标识对应,机柜侧面装有用于RFID识别的天线,通过调节天线的辐射功率使天线的有效识别距离为3~5cm,如机柜A-04位置天线刚好能探测A-04位置计算机标签,而不能探测到机柜A-03或者A-05位置计算机贴附的标签。机柜内的处理器可向读写器发送读取指令,读写器收到指令后向射频模块发送读取指令,射频模块收到指令后将指令转换为调制的射频信号通过天线辐射到空间,贴附的RFID标签受到天线辐射后会对天线的辐射信号进行调制,天线接收到RFID调制的辐射信号通过射频模块处理转换为数字信号发送给读写器,读写器处理后可识别RFID标签对应的计算机标识并上报给处理器,完成一次读取动作。处理器可通过控制天线复用选择电路依次闭合SW01开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-01位置,扫描完成断开SW01开关;闭合SW02开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-02位置,扫描完成断开SW02开关;闭合SW03开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-03位置,扫描完成断开SW03开关;闭合SW04开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜 A-04位置,扫描完成断开SW04开关;闭合SW05开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-05位置,扫描完成断开SW05开关;闭合SW06开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-06位置,扫描完成断开SW06开关;闭合SW07开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-07位置,扫描完成断开SW07开关;闭合SW08开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-08位置,扫描完成断开SW08开关;闭合SW09开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-09位置,扫描完成断开SW09开关;闭合SW10开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-10位置,扫描完成断开SW10开关;闭合SW11开关,使RFID天线扫描机柜A-11位置,扫描完成断开SW11开关.当处理器完成对机构A的机柜内所有位置扫描后,会将扫描到的标签ID,结合机柜A的ID通过无线通讯模块发送给巡检机器人。
可选地,也可控制天线复用选择电路间隔扫描RFID标签,例如,分两次扫描,第一次让编号为奇数的天线的电路连通进行扫描,第二次让编号为偶数的天线的电路连通进行扫描,这样可以提高扫描速度,并且能避免干扰。为了进一步减少干扰,还可间隔更多的天线,例如,第一次编号为1、4、7…的天线扫描,第二次编号为2、5、8…的天线扫描,第三次编号为3、6、9…的天线扫描,
可选地,机柜还可包括机柜标识存储装置,用于存储机柜标识,并在发向机器人的数据中插入机柜标识。因为机器人可同时向多个机柜发送资产盘点指令,因此会收到多个机柜反馈的计算机标识,每个机柜的计算机打包后加个本机柜的标识,这样才能让机器人区分出数据来源。机柜标识存储装置可以是软件模块也可以是硬件模块。
进一步参考图5,作为对上述各图所示方法的实现,本公开提供了机器人的一个实施例,该机柜与图3所示的方法实施例相对应。
如图5所示,本实施例的机器人包括:无线通信模块、处理器、导航模块、动力模块,其中,无线通信模块配置用于接收包括规划路线的巡检指令;处理器配置用于向动力模块发运动指令,驱动机器人沿规划路线行驶;导航模块配置用于实现导航和自身位置确定;无线通信模块还配置用于向机柜发送资产盘点指令,并接收机柜识别出的计算机标识;处理器将机柜识别出的计算机标识与预先规划的计算机 列表进行匹配,生成资产盘点报表。
导航模块可包括激光雷达、IMU惯性导航单元等。导航模块可检测障碍物,防止机器人撞到机柜。还可精确地定位到机器人所处的位置,引导机器人在规划路线行驶并在巡检坐标处停留。
动力模块可包括电机驱动器、运动电机、编码器。还可包括电源模块,在此不再赘述。机器人的底盘可以拆卸,替换成不同的轮子、履带。
机器人的处理器,向电机驱动器下发运动指令,驱动器驱动电机旋转实现机器人前进、后退、转向等操作,位于电机上的编码器记录电机旋转情况并反馈给电机驱动器,形成机器人运动里程记录。机器人利用里程、IMU惯性导航单元信息、激光点云数据,通过SLAM技术实现导航和自身位置确定。
可选地,导航模块还可包括深度摄像头、悬崖传感器等,进行辅助定位。
可选地,机器人还可包括摄像头、读卡器等可获取机柜信息的装置。摄像头可以拍摄机柜的图像,然后进行图像识别,判断出机柜的编号等信息。读卡器可扫描二维码等信息。用于在没有配置完备的RFID标签的情况下辅助识别计算机标识。
