Technical Field

[0002] In the field of the Internet of Things, a cloud server can provide device management services for the connected intelligent devices. Currently, when implementing the device management service for intelligent devices, generally, the cloud server needs to control the intelligent devices through the operator network, which may easily be affected by the operator network service. As a result, there is a problem that the device management service cannot be provided for intelligent devices with low message delay requirements. Since the current device management service for intelligent devices only supports simple device message parsing, it cannot support complex rule mapping scenarios that require database operations. In addition, the current device management service also has the problem of limited types of supported intelligent devices. For example, it cannot support intelligent devices based on Long Range Radio (LoRa) technology. Summary of the Invention

In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to give a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application. However, those skilled in the art will realize that the technical solutions of the present application may be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or other methods, components, devices, steps, etc. may be adopted. In other cases, well-known methods, devices, implementations, or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of the present application.

[0039] The block diagrams shown in the drawings are only functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically independent entities. That is, these functional entities may be implemented in software form, or implemented in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or implemented in different networks and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.

[0040] The flowcharts shown in the drawings are only exemplary illustrations and do not necessarily include all the contents and operations / steps, nor are they necessarily executed in the described order. For example, some operations / steps may be decomposed, while some operations / steps may be combined or partially combined, so the actual execution order may change according to the actual situation.

[0041] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an exemplary system architecture to which the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application can be applied is shown.

[0042] As Figure 1 shown, the system architecture 100 may include a control terminal 101, a cloud server 102, an edge server 103, a network 104, and a long-range radio device 105. The network 104 is used as a medium to provide a communication link between the control terminal 101, the cloud server 102, the edge server 103, and the long-range radio device 105. For example, the network 104 between the cloud server 102 and the long-range radio device 105 or between the edge server 103 and the long-range radio device 105 may be a long-range radio wireless communication link, etc. The long-range radio device 105 is an intelligent device with long-range radio (LoRa) communication function, and the cloud server 102 and the edge server 103 are servers with long-range radio communication function.

[0043] It should be understood that Figure 1The numbers of the control terminal 101, the cloud server 102, the edge server 103, the network 104, and the long range radio device 105 are merely illustrative. According to the implementation requirements, there can be any number of control terminals 101, cloud servers 102, edge servers 103, networks 104, and long range radio devices 105. For example, the edge server 103 can be a server cluster composed of multiple servers, etc.

[0044] The edge server 103 is a server connected to the cloud server 102 and is used to cooperate with the cloud server 102 to perform the device management function of intelligent devices. When the control terminal 101 interacts with the edge server 103, it generally sends a message to the cloud server 102 through the network 104 first, and then the cloud server 102 forwards the message to the edge server 103. Of course, the control terminal 101 can also directly interact with the edge server 103 through the network 104.

[0045] For example, the control terminal 10 sends a first control instruction for the first long range radio device to the cloud server 102, and the cloud server 102 forwards the first control instruction to the edge server 103. The edge server 103 receives the first control instruction for the first long range radio device from the control terminal, and maps and processes the first control instruction according to the control message format of the first long range radio device to generate a first device control message; the first device control message is sent to the first long range radio device so that the first long range radio device performs corresponding operations according to the first device control message. By mapping and processing the first control instruction from the control terminal by the edge server 103 to generate a first device control message that matches the control message format of the first long range radio device, the device management service of the edge server 103 for intelligent devices can support intelligent devices based on long range radio technology, improving the types of intelligent devices that the device management service of intelligent devices can support, and thus improving the availability of the device management service of intelligent devices provided by the edge server 103; in addition, the edge server 103 controls the connected intelligent devices through the long range radio network. Since the long range radio network is more stable, the messages sent and received are less affected by network fluctuations, improving the timeliness of the control response, and enabling the device management service of intelligent devices provided by the edge server 103 to support control scenarios with less message delay.

[0046] It should be noted that the intelligent device control method provided by the embodiments of the present application is generally executed by the edge server 103. Correspondingly, the intelligent device control device is generally disposed in the edge server 103. However, in other embodiments of the present application, the cloud server 102 may also have similar functions as the edge server 103, so as to execute the solution of the intelligent device control method provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0047] The implementation details of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are elaborated in detail below:

[0048] Figure 2 The flowchart of the intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. The intelligent device control method can be executed by a server, and the server can be Figure 1 the edge server 103 shown in Figure 2 As shown, the intelligent device control method at least includes steps S210 to S230, which are introduced in detail as follows:

[0049] In step S210, a first control instruction for a first long-range radio device is received from a control terminal.

[0050] The control terminal is a terminal used by a user that can send control instructions. The control terminal can directly send a control instruction to the edge server, or can first send a control instruction to the cloud server, and then the cloud server forwards it to the edge server. The control instruction is a control instruction for each type of long-range radio device pre-agreed between the control terminal and the server side. It should be noted that the control message format of this control instruction is different from the control message format corresponding to the device control message of the long-range radio device. The first long-range radio device is a long-range radio device accessed to the edge server through a long-range radio network, and can send and receive messages with the edge server through the long-range radio network.

[0051] Optionally, the above control instruction may specifically be a shutdown instruction for the long-range radio device, and the control instruction may be triggered by a physical button or a virtual control provided by the control terminal.

[0052] In step S220, the first control instruction is mapped according to the control message format of the first long-range radio device to generate a first device control message.

[0053] After receiving the control instruction from the control terminal, in order to send the corresponding device control message to the first long-range radio device according to the control information included in the control instruction and thus control the first long-range radio device, the edge server performs mapping processing on the first control instruction according to the control message format of the first long-range radio device to generate the first device control message for initiating the corresponding control to the first long-range radio device. Specifically, the edge server maps to obtain the first device control message that matches the control message format of the first long-range radio device according to the specific control information included in the control instruction, so that the edge server sends the first device control message to the first long-range radio device through the long-range radio network.

[0054] The first device control message is sent to the first long-range radio device through the long-range radio network. Compared with the way of sending and receiving messages through the network deployed by the network operator, since the long-range radio network is more stable, it is less affected by network fluctuations, has less latency in sending and receiving messages, improves the timeliness of controlling the corresponding intelligent device, and enables the device management service of the intelligent device provided by the edge server to support control scenarios with less message latency.

[0055] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 3 shows a specific flowchart of step S220 of the intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, this step S220 includes step S310 to step S320, which are described in detail as follows.

[0056] In step S310, according to the device identifier of the first long-range radio device, a device message parsing function for mapping processing is determined.

[0057] In one embodiment, the first control instruction includes the device identifier of the first long-range radio device and control information. The device identifier of the first long-range radio device indicates the long-range radio device that needs to execute the corresponding control instruction. This device identifier can be the device number of the long-range radio device. Of course, it can also be other information used to uniquely identify each long-range radio device, which is not limited here.

[0058] The control information is the specific control information for the first long-range radio device included in the first control instruction. For example, it can be the device shutdown instruction information for notifying the first long-range radio device to shut down.

[0059] The device message parsing function is a function pre-stored in the edge server. This function is used to perform mapping processing on the control information in the first control instruction, and then generate a first device control message corresponding to the control message format of the first long-range radio device. It should be noted that the edge server can pre-store the correspondence between the device identifier of the long-range radio device and the device message parsing function for mapping processing. Then, after receiving the first control instruction, it is convenient to determine the device message parsing function for mapping processing according to the device identifier in the first control instruction and the correspondence between the device identifier of the long-range radio device and the device message parsing function for mapping processing.

[0060] In step S320, perform mapping processing on the control information according to the device message parsing function for mapping processing to generate the first device control message.

[0061] After determining the device message parsing function for mapping processing, perform mapping processing on the control information included in the first control instruction according to the device message parsing function for mapping processing to generate a first device control message corresponding to the control message format of the first long-range radio device.

[0062] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 4 shows a specific flowchart of step S320 of the intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, this step S320 includes steps S410 to S430, which are described in detail as follows.

[0063] In step S410, perform mapping processing on the control information according to the device message parsing function for mapping processing to obtain mapping information.

[0064] In one embodiment, the device message parsing function may include a mapping function. This mapping function is used to parse and process the control information included in the first control instruction, identify the specific semantic information corresponding to the control information, and then facilitate mapping to generate a mapping message corresponding to the control message format of the first long-range radio device according to the identified specific semantic information corresponding to the control information.

[0065] In step S420, determine the target device control code according to the mapping information and the correspondence between the mapping information and the device control code in the database.

[0066] In one embodiment, for long-range radio devices of certain device types, such as long-range radio devices for device types such as smart switches, the mapped message obtained after the mapping process through the device message parsing function can be directly used to generate a first device control message corresponding to the control message format of the first long-range radio device. However, for long-range radio devices of certain device types, such as long-range radio devices for device types such as infrared repeaters, when the mapped message obtained after the mapping process through the device message parsing function cannot be directly used to generate a first device control message corresponding to the control message format of the first long-range radio device, then after obtaining the mapped message, the target device control code can be determined according to the correspondence between the mapping information and the device control codes pre-stored in the database.

[0067] In step S430, the first device control message is generated according to the target device control code.

[0068] In one embodiment, after determining the corresponding target device control code, the target device control code is obtained from the pre-stored device control codes, and the obtained target device control code is used as the first device control message corresponding to the control message format of the first long-range radio device.

[0069] Figure 4 The technical solution in the illustrated embodiment can, through a pre-stored database containing device control codes, achieve complex rule mapping scenarios that require database operations, thereby enabling the device management service of the current intelligent device to be applicable to relatively complex control instruction parsing scenarios, and further realizing a more complex intelligent device control function, further improving the applicability of the current device management service, and thus supporting intelligent devices of more device types.

[0070] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , in step S230, the first device control message is sent to the first long-range radio device so that the first long-range radio device performs corresponding operations according to the first device control message.

[0071] The edge server sends the first device control message to the first long-range radio device through the long-range radio network according to the device identifier corresponding to the first long-range radio device, so that the first long-range radio device performs corresponding operations according to the first device control message, and thus the control terminal can control the first long-range radio device.

[0072] As can be seen above, by mapping and processing the first control instruction from the control terminal through the edge server, a first device control message matching the control message format of the first long-range radio device is generated, thereby enabling the device management service of the edge server for intelligent devices to support intelligent devices based on long-range radio technology, improving the types of intelligent devices that the device management service of intelligent devices can support, and further improving the availability of the device management service of intelligent devices provided by the edge server; in addition, the edge server controls the connected intelligent devices through the long-range radio network. Since the long-range radio network is more stable, the messages sent and received are less affected by network fluctuations, improving the timeliness of control responses, and enabling the device management service of intelligent devices provided by the edge server to support control scenarios with less message delay.

[0073] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 shows a flowchart of an intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The intelligent device control method further includes steps S510 to S520, which are described in detail as follows.

[0074] In step S510, a target configuration file is obtained. The target configuration file includes the device type of the long-range radio device to be configured and the device message parsing function to be configured.

[0075] In one embodiment, when configuring the device management service function of the edge server for intelligent devices of various device types, specifically, the edge server can be configured through the target configuration file for configuration. The target configuration file can be obtained by the edge server from the cloud server or uploaded by the user to the edge server through the control terminal. The above target configuration file includes the device type of the long-range radio device to be configured and the device message parsing function to be configured. The device message parsing function can be pre-developed by developers according to the specific device service functions required by long-range radio devices of different device types.

[0076] In step S520, the device type of the long-range radio device to be configured and the device message parsing function to be configured are associated and stored.

[0077] In one embodiment, after obtaining the target configuration file, the edge server associates and stores the device type of the long-distance radio device to be configured and the device message parsing function to be configured. Then, when a control instruction for a long-distance radio device of a certain device type is received, the corresponding mapping process can be performed on the control instruction according to the device message parsing function associated with the long-distance radio device of that device type, and then a device control message matching the control message format of the long-distance radio device of that device type is generated.

[0078] In one embodiment, the target configuration file may further include an associated database, and the associated database includes the correspondence between mapping information and device control codes. The intelligent device control method in this embodiment further includes: associating the device type of the long-distance radio device to be configured, the device message parsing function to be configured with the associated database.

[0079] In this embodiment, in order to enable the edge server to generate corresponding device control messages according to the mapping information and the correspondence between the mapping information and the device control codes, when configuring the device management service function of the edge server for intelligent devices of various device types, the target configuration file may further include an associated database.

[0080] After receiving the target configuration file, the edge server also associates the device type of the long-distance radio device to be configured, the device message parsing function to be configured with the associated database, so as to facilitate generating a device control message matching the control message format of the long-distance radio device of that device type according to the correspondence between the mapping information and the device control codes included in the associated database of the long-distance radio device of that device type.

[0081] Figure 5 The technical solution of the illustrated embodiment can configure the device management service function of the edge server for intelligent devices of various device types according to requirements, improve the scalability of the edge server to provide device management service functions for intelligent devices, and meet the personalized customization needs of users.

[0082] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 shows a flowchart of an intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The intelligent device control method further includes steps S610 to S630, which are described in detail as follows.

[0083] In step S610, an update request is obtained, and the update request includes the resource address of the updated configuration file.

[0084] In one embodiment, when the edge server needs to provide device management services for a certain new type of long-distance radio device or needs to update the device management services provided for long-distance radio devices of the existing device type, the update can be achieved through the obtained update request.

[0085] The above update request can be actively sent by the cloud server to the edge server, or can be triggered by the edge server sending a request to the cloud server at specified periodic intervals. The above update request includes the resource address of the update configuration file for the update, so that the edge server can obtain the corresponding update configuration file according to the resource address in the update request.

[0086] In step S620, download the update configuration file according to the resource address.

[0087] In one embodiment, after receiving the update request, the edge server will download the corresponding update configuration file according to the resource address included in the update request.

[0088] In step S630, update the target configuration file based on the update configuration file.

[0089] In one embodiment, after downloading the corresponding update configuration file, the current target configuration file will be updated according to the update configuration file, thereby realizing the update of the device management service function currently provided by the edge server for smart devices.

[0090] Figure 6 The technical solution of the illustrated embodiment can realize the timely update of the device management service function provided by the edge server for smart devices, so as to facilitate the improvement and enhancement of the device management service function provided by the edge server for smart devices.

[0091] In one embodiment, step S630 may specifically further include: if the version number of the update configuration file is higher than the version number of the target configuration file, then update the target configuration file based on the update configuration file.

[0092] When updating the target configuration file based on the update configuration file, it is necessary to verify the version number of the update configuration file. If the version number of the update configuration file is the same as the version number of the target configuration file or the version number of the update configuration file is lower than the version number of the target configuration file, no update operation is performed; if the version number of the update configuration file is higher than the version number of the target configuration file, then update the target configuration file based on the update configuration file.

[0093] Optionally, if the version number of the updated configuration file is higher than that of the target configuration file, during the process of updating the target configuration file based on the updated configuration file, it is also necessary to verify the updated configuration file through the MD5 message-digest algorithm. When performing the verification, for the updated configuration file and the target configuration file, if the MD5 values generated according to the MD5 message-digest algorithm are the same, then perform the update of the target configuration file based on the updated configuration file; otherwise, do not perform the update operation. By verifying the updated configuration file through the MD5 message-digest algorithm, it can be ensured that the configuration file used for updating is complete, avoiding function loss and improving the success rate of the update.

[0094] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 7 shows a flowchart of an intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The intelligent device control method further includes steps S710 to S720, which are described in detail as follows.

[0095] In step S710, obtain a registration request, where the registration request includes the device identifier and device type of the long-range radio device to be registered.

[0096] In one embodiment, before the edge server provides the device management service function for each connected long-range radio device, it is necessary to pre-register the device management service function in the edge server. Specifically, it can be implemented by the control terminal sending a corresponding registration request to the edge server, and the registration request can be triggered by the physical button or virtual control provided by the control terminal. The registration request carries the device identifier of the long-range radio device to be registered and the device type to which the long-range radio device belongs. It should be noted that the long-range radio devices to be registered are all long-range radio devices that have been registered for network access through the long-range radio network.

[0097] In step S720, associate the device identifier of the long-range radio device to be registered in the registration request with the device message parsing function corresponding to the device type.

[0098] In one embodiment, after the edge server receives the registration request, it will associate the device identifier of the long-range radio device to be registered in the registration request with the device message parsing function corresponding to the device type to which the long-range radio device belongs, thereby completing the registration of the long-range radio device. After the registration is completed, if a control instruction for the long-range radio device is received from the control terminal, the control instruction can be mapped through the device message parsing function corresponding to the device type to which the long-range radio device belongs to generate a device control message for controlling the long-range radio device.

[0099] Reference Figure 8 , Figure 8 shows a flowchart of a smart device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The smart device control method further includes steps S810 to S830, which are described in detail as follows.

[0100] In step S810, the device attribute detection value reported by the second long-distance radio device is received.

[0101] In one embodiment, when the device types of the long-distance radio devices accessed to the edge server are smart devices such as temperature and humidity sensors, infrared projectors, or smart plugs, the edge server needs to monitor and manage the device attribute values of these long-distance radio devices.

[0102] For the temperature and humidity sensor, the device attribute detection values to be monitored are temperature or humidity; for the smart plug, the device attribute detection values to be monitored are current value or voltage value, etc. These long-distance radio devices can report the corresponding device attribute detection values to the edge server.

[0103] In step S820, the reported device attribute detection value is mapped according to the device message parsing function corresponding to the second long-distance radio device to generate a mapped device attribute detection value.

[0104] In one embodiment, since the device attribute detection values reported by the long-distance radio devices are generally binary instructions, it is necessary to map the device attribute detection values through the device message parsing function corresponding to the long-distance radio devices to generate the mapped device attribute detection values, so as to facilitate obtaining the specific information reported by the long-distance radio devices.

[0105] In step S830, the mapped device attribute detection value is used as the target device attribute value and associated with the device identifier corresponding to the second long-distance radio device and stored in the device attribute database corresponding to the second long-distance radio device.

[0106] In one embodiment, the edge server uses the mapped device attribute detection value as the target device attribute value for the long-distance radio device, and associates the target device attribute value with the device identifier corresponding to the second long-distance radio device and stores it in the device attribute database corresponding to the second long-distance radio device, which is convenient for monitoring the device attribute value of the long-distance radio device according to the device attribute database.

[0107] Reference Figure 9 , Figure 9The flowchart of the intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. The intelligent device control method further includes steps S910 to S930, which are described in detail as follows.

[0108] In step S910, a query request from a control terminal is obtained. The query request includes the device identifier corresponding to the second long-range radio device.

[0109] In one embodiment, for the device attribute value corresponding to the long-range radio device under monitoring, it can be queried through the control terminal. Specifically, the user can select the long-range radio device to be queried through the query button or virtual query control provided by the control terminal, thereby triggering a query request. The query request carries the device identifier corresponding to the second long-range radio device that needs to be queried.

[0110] In step S920, based on the device identifier corresponding to the second long-range radio device, the target device attribute value of the second long-range radio device is obtained from the device attribute database corresponding to the second long-range radio device.

[0111] In one embodiment, after receiving the query request, the edge server will, based on the device identifier corresponding to the second long-range radio device carried in the query request, obtain the target device attribute value of the second long-range radio device from the device attribute database corresponding to the second long-range radio device. Specifically, the device identifier of the second long-range radio device can be used as an index to search in the device attribute database, and then the target device attribute value of the second long-range radio device is obtained from the device attribute database corresponding to the second long-range radio device.

[0112] In step S930, the target device attribute value is sent to the control terminal so that the control terminal can display according to the target device attribute value.

[0113] In one embodiment, the edge server sends the obtained target device attribute value to the control terminal so that the control terminal can display according to the target device attribute value, thereby facilitating the user to intuitively view the current device attribute value of the second long-range radio device under monitoring.

[0114] Figure 9 In the technical solution of the shown embodiment, the user can effectively query the current device attribute value of the second long-range radio device under monitoring through the control terminal, thereby realizing effective monitoring of the long-range radio device intuitively.

[0115] Reference Figure 10 , Figure 10The flowchart of the intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. The intelligent device control method further includes steps S1010 to S1020, which are described in detail as follows.

[0116] In step S1010, if the detected value of the device attribute after mapping reaches a predetermined condition, a third device control message is generated according to the control message format of the third long-range radio device.

[0117] In an embodiment, for the second long-range radio device under monitoring, other long-range radio devices can also be intelligently controlled according to the detected value of the device attribute corresponding to the long-range radio device under monitoring. If the detected value of the device attribute after mapping is higher than a predetermined threshold or in a predetermined state, it can be considered that the detected value of the device attribute after mapping reaches a predetermined condition, and a third device control message is generated according to the control message format of the third long-range radio device, so as to facilitate sending the corresponding third device control message to the third long-range radio device.

[0118] In step S1020, the third device control message is sent to the third long-range radio device, so that the third long-range radio device performs corresponding operations according to the third device control message.

[0119] In an embodiment, the edge server sends the generated third device control message to the third long-range radio device, so that the third long-range radio device can perform corresponding operations according to the third device control message.

[0120] For example, in a conference room scenario, the conference room includes a second long-range radio device and a third long-range radio device. The second long-range radio device is an infrared detector for detecting whether the conference room is occupied or unoccupied, and the third long-range radio device is an infrared repeater for controlling the projector device to turn off.

[0121] The infrared detector will determine whether the meeting room is currently occupied or unoccupied based on the detected parameters. If it detects that the meeting room is currently unoccupied, it will send the device attribute detection value indicating the unoccupied state to the edge server. The edge server receives the device attribute detection value reported by the infrared detector indicating the unoccupied state, and performs mapping processing on the reported device attribute detection value indicating the unoccupied state according to the device message parsing function corresponding to the infrared detector to generate a mapped device attribute detection value. Since the mapped device attribute detection value is the device attribute detection value indicating that the meeting room is unoccupied, an instruction code for turning off the projector is generated according to the control message format of the infrared repeater, and the instruction code is sent to the infrared repeater so that the infrared repeater turns off the projector according to the instruction code for turning off the projector, and then the projector in the meeting room is intelligently controlled to be turned off by intelligently controlling the long-distance radio device in the meeting room.

[0122] Reference Figure 11 , Figure 11 FIG. shows a flowchart of an intelligent device control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The intelligent device control method further includes steps S1110 to S1120, which are described in detail as follows.

[0123] In step S1110, if the mapped device attribute detection value meets a predetermined condition, an alarm message is generated.

[0124] In one embodiment, if the mapped device attribute detection value is higher than a predetermined threshold or in a predetermined state, it can be considered that the mapped device attribute detection value meets the predetermined condition, and an alarm message for the monitoring information is generated.

[0125] In step S1120, the alarm message is sent to the control terminal.

[0126] In one embodiment, the edge server sends the alarm message to the control terminal so that the control terminal can obtain the alarm information in a timely manner. Specifically, the corresponding alarm information can be pushed to the control terminal by means of text messages or incoming calls, which is not limited here.

[0127] Figure 11 In the technical solution of the illustrated embodiment, when monitoring through a long-distance radio device, when the mapped device attribute detection value meets a predetermined condition, an alarm is generated in a timely manner, and then the user can be reminded in a timely manner in case of a failure or abnormal situation, reducing the risk.
