Ethernet radio network gateway based on Z-Wave technology

Abstract

The invention relates to an Ethernet radio network gateway based on a Z-Wave technology. The network gateway comprises an Ethernet module, a protocol conversion module, a Z-Wave communication module and an antenna. The Ethernet module is used for controlling receiving and transmission of network data in an Ethernet network. The protocol conversion module is used for the protocol conversion of an Ethernet network protocol and a Z-Wave communication network protocol. The Z-Wave communication module and the antenna are used for receiving and transmitting of radio signals. The Ethernet module, the protocol conversion module, the Z-Wave communication module and the antenna are connected with one another in sequence. The Ethernet radio network gateway based on the Z-Wave technology not only achieves relatively smooth interconnection and intercommunication of a Z-Wave radio communication network and the Ethernet network and enables a system to which the network gateway is applied to have a wide signal cover range under the condition of no need of arrangement of too many communication nodes through the adoption of the Z-Wave technology, but also has the advantages of being simple in structure, low in cost, little in power consumption, high in efficiency and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication, more specifically, to an Ethernet wireless gateway based on Z-Wave technology. Background technique [0002] Z-Wave is an emerging short-range wireless communication technology based on radio frequency, low cost, low power consumption, high reliability, and suitable for networks. The working frequency band is 908.42MHz (USA) ~ 868.42MHz (Europe), using frequency shift keying FSK (BFSK / GFSK) modulation mode, the data transmission rate is 9.6kbps, the effective coverage of the signal is 30m indoors, and more than 100m outdoors , suitable for narrow bandwidth applications. With the increase of communication distance, the complexity, power consumption and system cost of equipment are all increasing. Compared with various existing wireless communication technologies, Z-Wave technology will be the technology with the lowest power consumption and lowest cost, which will effectively Drivin...
