Upgrading method and device of Internet of Things terminal

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides an upgrading method and device of Internet of Things terminal. An Internet of Things communication module and a memory which are mutually independent are configured in an Internet of Things terminal, and the method comprises the following steps: the Internet of Things communication module detects upgrading information; the Internet of Things communication module downloads an upgrade package corresponding to the upgrade information, and stores the upgrade package in the memory; the Internet of Things communication module confirms the downloading progressof the upgrade package stored in the memory; if the downloading progress is that downloading is completed, the Internet of Things communication module acquires the upgrade package from the memory; and the Internet of Things communication module executes an upgrading operation according to the upgrading package. In an intelligent refrigerator, an intelligent air conditioner and other internet-of-things terminals, a memorizer with sufficient storage space is usually arranged, and an internet-of-things communication module temporarily uses the memorizer to store an upgrade package, so that the requirement for the storage space of the internet-of-things communication module is lowered, and the hardware cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of the Internet of Things, in particular to an upgrading method and device for an Internet of Things terminal. Background technique [0002] With the development and popularization of the Internet of Things, Internet of Things terminals are widely popularized, such as smart refrigerators, smart air conditioners, smart meters and so on. [0003] The IoT terminal is equipped with an IoT communication module. The IoT communication module has a single function and a small amount of code. At the same time, in order to reduce costs, the IoT communication module is often configured with a small RAM (random access memory, random access memory). access memory) and Flash flash memory. [0004] When the IoT communication module needs to be upgraded, it is often necessary to transmit the upgrade package through the network. After receiving the data of the upgrade package, the IoT communication module combines a...
