Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a base station power monitoring and management system. Background Technology

[0002] A communication base station, also known as a wireless base station, is a low-power wireless antenna that communicates with a user's mobile phone. Depending on the size of its service range and the number of users, its transmission power ranges from a few watts to hundreds of watts.

[0003] Indoor communication base stations used in office buildings are typically small base stations. These base stations are usually installed at a high density to ensure stable communication later on. However, in actual use, the population density varies across different office areas, and some areas may even be vacant. This results in some base stations operating under light or no load, leading to a waste of power resources. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a base station power monitoring and management system to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A base station power monitoring and management system includes: a monitoring center server and multiple communication base stations;

[0007] The monitoring center server communicates with multiple communication base stations; these base stations are divided into regions; each region contains multiple communication base stations; each communication base station belongs to only one region; each communication base station is equipped with a power data acquisition unit; the power data acquisition unit is used to collect the voltage and current of the communication base station to obtain the load power.

[0008] The communication base station uploads the information collected by the power data acquisition unit to the monitoring center server; the monitoring center server manages and controls the communication base stations in each area according to the information collected by the power data acquisition units of the communication base stations in each area.

[0009] As a further aspect of the present invention: the method for a monitoring center server to regulate communication base stations based on load power includes the following steps:

[0010] Step 1: At each preset interval, the monitoring center server calculates the average load power of each communication base station in operation within each area over a certain period of time.

[0011] Step 2: The monitoring center server calculates the average load power of each area based on the average load power of each communication base station in operation within each area.

[0012] Step 3: The monitoring center server obtains the total average load power based on the average load power of each region;

[0013] Step 4: Calculate the ratio of the average load power of each area to the total average load power. If the ratio of a certain area is lower than the preset minimum threshold, the monitoring center server will control and shut down some communication base stations in that area to reduce the density of operating communication base stations.

[0014] As a further aspect of the present invention: In step 4, if the ratio of a certain area is higher than the preset maximum threshold, the monitoring center server controls the opening of some closed communication base stations in that area to increase the density of operating communication base stations.

[0015] As a further aspect of the present invention: if the ratio of a certain region is neither lower than a preset minimum threshold nor higher than a preset maximum threshold, the length of the preset period is increased.

[0016] If the ratio of a certain region is lower than the preset minimum threshold or if the ratio of a certain region is higher than the preset maximum threshold, the length of the preset period is shortened.

[0017] The preset period length has a maximum and a minimum value;

[0018] When increasing the length of the preset period, if the length of the preset period reaches the maximum value, it will not continue to increase;

[0019] If the length of the preset period reaches its minimum value when shortening the preset period, the shortening will not continue.

[0020] As a further aspect of the present invention: In step 4, if the ratio of a certain area is higher than the preset maximum threshold, and all fault-free communication base stations in that area are in the open state, the monitoring center server issues an emergency maintenance command or requires the addition of base station information based on the number of faulty communication base stations in that area.

[0021] As a further aspect of the present invention: the monitoring center server issues emergency maintenance commands or controls the addition of base station information based on the number of faulty communication base stations in the area, including the following steps:

[0022] Calculate the ratio of the number of faulty communication base stations in the area to the total number of communication base stations in the area; if the ratio is greater than the maximum threshold, issue an emergency maintenance command; if the ratio is not greater than the maximum threshold, issue a request to add more base stations.

[0023] As a further aspect of the present invention: the monitoring center server sorts the priority maintenance levels of different regions according to the ratio of the number of faulty communication base stations in different regions to the total number of communication base stations in that region. The larger the ratio, the higher the priority maintenance level of that region.

[0024] As a further aspect of the present invention: the monitoring center server assigns daily maintenance tasks according to regional arrangements.

[0025] As a further aspect of the present invention: the monitoring center server regulates the communication base stations according to their usual operating times;

[0026] The method by which the monitoring center server adjusts the communication base stations according to common usage times includes the following steps:

[0027] The day is divided into several time periods, and the average load power of the communication base station in each time period is calculated.

[0028] The system determines whether the average load power of the communication base station in each time period is less than a preset minimum threshold. If the average load power in a time period is less than the preset minimum threshold, the time period is defined as an inactive time period for the communication base station. If both the previous and next time periods are defined as inactive time periods, the monitoring center server will shut down the communication base station during that time period.

[0029] As a further aspect of the present invention, each day is divided into 24 time periods, and each time period is set to 1 hour.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the base station power monitoring and management system can realize dynamic control of communication base stations in the area according to the usage of communication base stations, thereby saving power.

[0031] There are usually fewer people in office spaces at night, so communication base stations can be dynamically controlled according to time periods to save power resources at night.

[0032] Other features and advantages of the present invention will be disclosed in detail in the following detailed description and accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0036] 100 base station power monitoring and management systems, 10 monitoring center servers, and 20 communication base stations. Detailed Implementation

[0037] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment of the invention, a base station power monitoring and management system 100 includes: a monitoring center server 10 and multiple communication base stations 20. The monitoring center server 10 communicates with the multiple communication base stations 20. The multiple communication base stations 20 are divided according to regions. Each region contains multiple communication base stations 20. Each communication base station 20 belongs to only one region. Each communication base station 20 is equipped with a power data acquisition unit. The power data acquisition unit is used to collect the voltage and current of the communication base station 20 to obtain the load power. The communication base station 20 uploads the information collected by the power data acquisition unit to the monitoring center server 10. The monitoring center server 10 manages and controls the communication base stations 20 in each region according to the information collected by the power data acquisition units of the communication base stations 20 in each region.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the method by which the monitoring center server 10 regulates the communication base station 20 based on load power includes the following steps:

[0040] Step 1: At each preset interval, the monitoring center server 10 calculates the average load power of each communication base station 20 in the operating status of each area within a certain time period.

[0041] Step 2: The monitoring center server 10 calculates the average load power of each area based on the average load power of each communication base station 20 in operation within each area.

[0042] Step 3: The monitoring center server 10 obtains the total average load power based on the average load power of each region;

[0043] Step 4: Calculate the ratio of the average load power of each area to the total average load power. If the ratio of a certain area is lower than the preset minimum threshold, the monitoring center server 10 will control and shut down some communication base stations 20 in that area to reduce the density of operating communication base stations 20.

[0044] Specifically, in step 4, if the ratio of a certain area is higher than the preset maximum threshold, the monitoring center server 10 controls the opening of some closed communication base stations 20 in that area to increase the density of operating communication base stations 20.

[0045] More specifically, in step 4, if the ratio of a certain area is higher than the preset maximum threshold, and all fault-free communication base stations 20 in that area are in the open state, then the monitoring center server 10 issues an emergency maintenance command or requires the addition of base station information based on the number of faulty communication base stations 20 in that area.

[0046] The monitoring center server 10 issues emergency maintenance commands or controls the addition of base station information based on the number of faulty communication base stations 20 in the area, including the following steps:

[0047] Calculate the ratio of the number of faulty communication base stations 20 in the area to the total number of communication base stations 20 in the area. If the ratio is greater than a maximum threshold, an emergency maintenance command is issued. If the ratio is not greater than the maximum threshold, information indicating the need to add more base stations is issued.

[0048] In one preferred implementation, the monitoring center server 10 assigns routine maintenance tasks according to regional arrangements. Specifically, the monitoring center server 10 ranks the priority maintenance levels of different regions based on the ratio of the number of faulty communication base stations 20 in each region to the total number of communication base stations 20 in that region; the higher the ratio, the higher the priority maintenance level of that region.

[0049] As a preferred implementation, if the ratio of a certain region is neither lower than a preset minimum threshold nor higher than a preset maximum threshold, the length of the preset period is increased.

[0050] If the ratio of a certain region is lower than the preset minimum threshold or if the ratio of a certain region is higher than the preset maximum threshold, the length of the preset period is shortened.

[0051] The preset period length has a maximum and a minimum value. When increasing the preset period length, it will stop increasing once the maximum value is reached. When decreasing the preset period length, it will stop decreasing once the minimum value is reached.

[0052] As a preferred implementation, the monitoring center server 10 regulates each communication base station 20 according to the usual time.

[0053] The method by which the monitoring center server 10 adjusts the communication base station 20 according to the usual time for each communication base station 20 includes the following steps:

[0054] The day is divided into several time periods, and the average load power of communication base station 20 in each time period is calculated.

[0055] The monitoring center server 10 determines whether the average load power of the communication base station 20 in each time period is less than a preset minimum threshold. If the average load power in a time period is less than the preset minimum threshold, the time period is defined as an inactive time period of the communication base station 20. If the previous time period and the next time period are both defined as inactive time periods, the monitoring center server 10 will shut down the communication base station 20 during that time period.

[0056] Specifically, each day will be divided into 24 time periods, each lasting one hour.

[0057] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0058] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
