WiMAX terminal equipment mainframe driving method

Abstract

The invention relates to a host computer driving method for WiMAX terminal equipment. The method comprises a terminal equipment driver which is provided with an operating system processing module (21), an information processing module (23), a driving management module (22), an equipment management module (25), a startup module (24), a data gateway module (26) and a general hardware interface module (27). The driver is used for initializing and starting the WiMAX terminal equipment (4). The driver and the WiMAX terminal equipment (4) are concretely used for sending or receiving data. The method uses the general hardware interface module and the operating system processing module for fully adapting various actual interfaces and is easy to be replanted. At the same time, a layered design causes the alternation of data and information on the whole communication link clearer than the prior disclosed art. And the design is of more convenience.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer driving of network equipment, in particular to a host driving method of a WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, worldwide interoperability for microwave access) terminal equipment. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of network technology, WiMAX wireless network is gradually known and accepted by more and more people, and is regarded as the 4G (4thGeneration, 4th generation) standard after 3G (3rd Generation, 3rd generation) . The business of wirelessly accessing the Internet through WiMAX terminals is becoming more and more extensive. Currently, the most widely used is that the host uses plug-and-play WiMAX wireless terminal equipment to access the network. These devices require corresponding host drivers. In order to facilitate developers to develop host drivers for various hardware interfaces and buses on a common platform, the concept of driver architecture emerged. [0003]...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] (2) In the patent document numbered WO2004001615, the software architecture of the network terminal is given, which includes user applications and device drivers in the kernel space of the operating system, but the description of the driver in this patent is mainly from the application to the device A series of design methods, but there is little description of the design of the driver in the kernel space, and the most headache for driver developers is the development of network device drivers in the kernel space

[0006] At present, there are many manufacturers of WiMAX chips, and the functions of each manufacturer's chip will be slightly different. Then put it on the host; and the interfaces used by the terminal device to communicate with the host are also various, which further increases the burden on developers.
