Method for managing terminal peripheral and M2M gateway

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for managing a terminal peripheral. The method includes the steps of obtaining strategy definition of an affair through an M2M gateway, obtaining an operation priority instruction corresponding to operation in the affair from the strategy definition of the affair, and deciding whether to issue the operation in the affair to the corresponding terminal peripheral according to the operation priority instruction and the priority judgment strategy in the strategy definition of the affair if operation of the same type as the operation in the affair is confirmed to exist in the corresponding terminal peripheral when the M2M gateway triggers the affair. The invention further discloses the M2M gateway. By means of the method and the M2M gateway, the priority for processing the operation of the same type can be determined according to the operation priority instruction, the situation that operation conflicts and system error reports happen to the terminal peripheral is avoided, and the efficiency for managing the terminal peripheral or terminal peripheral sets through the M2M gateway is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to machine-to-machine / man communication (M2M, Machine-to-Machine / Man) technology in the field of mobile communication, in particular to a method for managing terminal peripherals and an M2M gateway. Background technique [0002] At present, in the M2M communication system, the terminal peripherals in the M2M stub network are managed through the M2M gateway, including: the transaction defined by the M2M gateway configuration strategy; when the M2M gateway determines to execute the transaction according to the transaction trigger condition, the corresponding The terminal peripheral or terminal peripheral group sends the operation defined in the transaction, and receives the operation execution information returned by the terminal peripheral or terminal peripheral group. [0003] However, the above-mentioned method for managing terminal peripherals by the M2M gateway can only sequentially issue operations to corresponding ter...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the above-mentioned method for managing terminal peripherals by the M2M gateway can only sequentially issue operations to corresponding terminal peripherals or terminal peripheral groups according to the order in which transactions are triggered, but cannot Set the currently existing operations of the group, and determine whether to send the same type of operation to the terminal peripheral or the terminal peripheral group, so that the terminal peripheral or the terminal peripheral group will have operation conflicts and system error reports, and then Affects the management efficiency of the M2M gateway on the terminal peripherals or terminal peripheral groups

[0004] It can be seen that the method for managing terminal peripherals by M2M gateways in the prior art cannot avoid operation conflicts and system error reporting of terminal peripherals, which in turn affects the management efficiency of M2M gateways for terminal peripherals or terminal peripheral groups.
