Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of satellite communication technology, specifically to a satellite signal finding method, apparatus, equipment, medium, and product. Background Technology

[0002] Satellite communication is commonly used for special communications or emergency communications in situations where there is no terrestrial network coverage. Current small vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment mainly includes: a human-machine interface (HMI), a baseband integration device, and a satellite antenna. The HMI connects to the baseband integration device, sending control signals triggered by preset actions to it. The HMI can be a terminal or a vehicle-mounted central control screen. The baseband integration device connects to the satellite antenna, controlling it based on received control signals to detect satellite signals. The satellite antenna transmits and receives communication signals from the communication satellite, enabling communication with it. However, related technologies are mainly based on equipment descriptions, installation improvements, and antenna optimization. For example, the technologies published under CN114204973A ("Vehicle-mounted Satellite Communication System and Vehicle") and CN204559898U ("A Small Vehicle-mounted Satellite Communication Device") only describe the vehicle-mounted satellite communication system and equipment, leaving significant room for functional optimization. Specifically, the current satellite communication systems in vehicles generally lack signal strength display and only provide emergency communication via satellite equipment. There is no direction or route guidance for locations with strong signals. In emergencies, when the signal is unstable, communication quality cannot be guaranteed, and the emergency cannot be resolved promptly. Furthermore, without clear directional guidance, users are prone to panic and blindly choose directions, potentially causing further problems. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, this application provides a satellite signal finding method, apparatus, equipment, medium and product to solve the following technical problem: satellite communication in the absence of terrestrial network coverage cannot guarantee rapid emergency communication.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, in a first aspect, this application provides a satellite signal locating method, which includes:

[0006] Find all satellite signal strengths within a specific time period prior to the vehicle's real-time time, and determine the vehicle's location coordinates where the satellite signal strength level is normal. The vehicle's location coordinates where the satellite signal strength level is normal are the target vehicle's location coordinates.

[0007] Based on the target vehicle's location coordinates, a guiding route is calculated and generated so that the vehicle can follow the guiding route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication.

[0008] In one embodiment of this application, after calculating and generating a guiding route based on the target vehicle's location coordinates so that the vehicle can travel according to the guiding route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication, the process includes:

[0009] If no satellite signal strength of the specified strength level is found within a specific time period prior to the vehicle's real-time time, then the vehicle's location coordinates and satellite position for the vehicle's forward movement are obtained.

[0010] The satellite guidance direction is calculated based on the vehicle's location coordinates as it moves forward and the satellite's orientation, so that the vehicle can travel according to the satellite guidance direction.

[0011] In one embodiment of this application, while the vehicle is traveling according to the direction guided by the satellite, the satellite signal strength is acquired in real time. When the strength level of the acquired satellite signal is normal, a prompt is issued to make the vehicle stop moving forward.

[0015] The system continuously searches for all satellite signal strengths within 20 minutes prior to the vehicle's real-time time, looping through the search until the vehicle's start time is found. If no satellite signal strength of the required level is found, the system continues searching.

[0016] In one embodiment of this application, the guidance route and the satellite guidance direction are sent to a display device for display.

[0017] In one embodiment of this application, the intensity level further includes poor and strong, and the satellite signal intensity is divided into multiple intensity levels based on the signal-to-noise ratio setting value.

[0018] Secondly, this application also provides a satellite signal searching device, comprising:

[0019] The acquisition module is used to acquire the pre-recorded real-time vehicle time, vehicle location coordinates, and satellite signal strength corresponding to the vehicle location coordinates, wherein each point in the real-time vehicle time maps to the corresponding vehicle location coordinates.

[0020] The determination module is used to find all satellite signal strengths within a specific time period before the real-time time of the vehicle, and to determine the vehicle location coordinates where the satellite signal strength level is normal. The vehicle location coordinates where the satellite signal strength level is normal are the target vehicle location coordinates.

[0021] The calculation module is used to calculate and generate a guiding route based on the location coordinates of the target vehicle, so that the vehicle can drive according to the guiding route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication.

[0022] Thirdly, this application also provides an electronic device, the electronic device comprising:

Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this application from the content disclosed in this specification. This application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the invention. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to this application and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0037] In the following description, numerous details are explored to provide a more thorough explanation of embodiments of the present application. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that embodiments of the present application may be practiced without these specific details. In other embodiments, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form rather than in detail to avoid obscuring embodiments of the present application.

[0038] First, it should be noted that this application is for vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment to find the strongest satellite signal, that is, to automatically find the strongest satellite signal without a terrestrial network.

[0039] Satellite communication is commonly used for special communications or emergency communications in situations without terrestrial network coverage. Current small vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment mainly includes: a human-machine interface (HMI), a baseband integration device, and a satellite antenna. The HMI connects to the baseband integration device, sending control signals triggered by preset actions to it. The HMI can be a terminal or a vehicle-mounted central control screen. The baseband integration device connects to the satellite antenna, controlling it based on received control signals to monitor satellite signals. The satellite antenna transmits and receives communication signals from the communication satellite, enabling communication with it. Related technologies mainly focus on equipment introduction, installation improvements, and antenna optimization. Currently, vehicle-mounted satellite communication systems generally lack signal strength display and rely solely on the satellite communication device for emergency communication. Without directions or route guidance for locations with strong signals, communication quality cannot be guaranteed in emergencies when the signal is unstable, hindering timely resolution. Furthermore, without clear directional guidance, users are prone to panic and blindly choosing directions, potentially causing further problems.

[0040] This application provides a method for vehicles to automatically find the location with the strongest signal without a terrestrial network by using vehicle-mounted satellite communication. The method achieves network connection through vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment, displays satellite signal strength on the vehicle's infotainment system or various terminal apps, and records key information such as satellite signal strength, location coordinates, and satellite orientation during the vehicle's journey. Based on the recorded satellite signal and coordinates, the method calculates routes and recommends the nearest location with the strongest signal or the direction of the strongest satellite signal.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a satellite signal searching method (backtracking) according to an embodiment of this application;

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, satellite signal finding methods include:

[0043] S101. Obtain the pre-recorded real-time vehicle time, vehicle location coordinates, and satellite signal strength corresponding to the vehicle location coordinates, wherein each point in the real-time vehicle time maps to the corresponding vehicle location coordinates.

[0044] The vehicle's real-time time is the actual time of the vehicle. The vehicle's location coordinates correspond to specific time points, with each time point corresponding to a vehicle's location coordinate. The satellite signal strength also corresponds to these coordinates. It's worth noting that the signal strength is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment system or various terminal apps based on the satellite signal received by the satellite communication equipment, and is updated in real-time for easy signal monitoring.

[0045] S102. Find all satellite signal strengths within a specific time period before the real-time time of the vehicle, and determine the vehicle location coordinates where the satellite signal strength level is normal. The vehicle location coordinates where the satellite signal strength level is normal are the target vehicle location coordinates.

[0046] S103. Calculate and generate a guide route based on the location coordinates of the target vehicle so that the vehicle can travel according to the guide route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication.

[0047] Specifically, satellite records generated along the vehicle's route are acquired. These records include satellite signal strength corresponding to the vehicle's coordinates at different times and locations, with each time point of the vehicle mapped to a corresponding vehicle location coordinate. The satellite signal strength corresponding to the vehicle in the satellite records is then searched. A satellite signal strength reaching a preset value is defined as a normal satellite signal, and the vehicle location coordinates of the normal satellite signal are used as the target vehicle location coordinates. A guidance route is generated based on the target vehicle location coordinates, enabling the vehicle to follow the guidance route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication.

[0048] Figure 1 The satellite signal locator method shown calculates and selects the strongest satellite signal within the nearest distance from the locations already passed along the route to generate a route for guidance. First, the vehicle starts, and then data is recorded, including the vehicle ignition time, location coordinates, and satellite signal strength, which is recorded as the starting point. Subsequently, data such as time, location coordinates, satellite signal strength, and satellite azimuth are recorded every minute. Based on the recorded time, location coordinates, and satellite signal strength, the strongest signal within the past ten minutes is calculated. It is then determined whether this strongest signal is at or above the normal signal strength and whether the data has reached the starting point. If it is at the normal signal strength or the calculated data has reached the starting point, the next step is performed. If it does not reach the normal signal strength, data from the previous ten minutes is added for calculation. The guiding route is calculated and generated based on the coordinates of the selected strongest signal location or the starting point coordinates, combined with the coordinates of locations along the route. The guiding route is then displayed on the app.

[0049] If no satellite signal of normal or strong intensity is found when traversing the route already traveled, the vehicle is driven forward, and then the satellite guidance direction is calculated based on the satellite position and the vehicle's location coordinates.

[0050] Please see Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a satellite signal searching method (forward) according to an embodiment of this application;

[0051] like Figure 2As shown, after calculating and generating a guiding route based on the location coordinates of the first target vehicle so that the vehicle can travel according to the guiding route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication, the following steps are also included:

[0052] S201. If no satellite signal strength of the normal strength level is found within a specific time period before the real time of the vehicle, then the coordinates of the vehicle's location and the satellite position are obtained.

[0053] S202. Calculate the satellite guidance direction based on the vehicle's location coordinates and the satellite's orientation so that the vehicle can travel according to the satellite guidance direction. The satellite guidance direction is calculated based on the satellite orientation and the vehicle's location coordinates; the satellite guidance direction and the relative positions of the vehicle and satellite are displayed on the app, indicating that the signal is strongest when directly facing the satellite and without obstructions. Users can use the directional guidance combined with the current terrain to move forward and find the strongest satellite signal along the way.

[0054] If a search of all satellite signal strengths within a specific timeframe prior to the vehicle's real-time time reveals no satellite signal strength at the normal level, then the vehicle's location coordinates and satellite position for forward movement are obtained. In other words, if a review of previously recorded data fails to find a satellite signal strength sufficient for normal communication, the vehicle must continue moving forward. It's important to note that vehicle movement is only resumed when no satellite signal strength at the normal or strong level has been found along the already traversed path. If a normal or strong satellite signal strength is found along the traversed path, there's no need to continue forward. Moving forward increases the risk of unknowns for the driver and passengers, thus raising the risk factor. However, reviewing the already traversed path provides peace of mind and a higher level of safety for the driver and passengers, essentially posing no risk.

[0055] If the vehicle is moving forward, only the satellite position and vehicle location coordinates are needed. The satellite guidance direction is calculated based on these coordinates, and the satellite guidance direction, vehicle location coordinates, and relative satellite position are displayed on the app. The app indicates that the signal is strongest when the vehicle is directly facing the satellite and there are no obstructions. Users can use the directional guidance and the current terrain to navigate and find the strongest satellite signal along their route.

[0056] As the vehicle travels according to the direction indicated by the satellite, the satellite signal strength is acquired in real time. When the acquired satellite signal strength level is normal, a prompt is issued to stop the vehicle. Alternatively, the satellite signal strength level can be observed visually; if the strength level is normal, the vehicle can stop directly.

[0057] Please see Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for finding satellite signal strength according to an embodiment of this application;

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, before obtaining the pre-recorded vehicle real-time time, the process includes: obtaining the pre-recorded vehicle start time; searching for all satellite signal strengths within a specific time period before the vehicle's real-time time; if no satellite signal strength of the required level is found, the process includes: S301, searching for all satellite signal strengths within ten minutes before the vehicle's real-time time; if no satellite signal strength of the required level is found; S302, continuously searching for all satellite signal strengths within twenty minutes before the vehicle's real-time time, looping the search until the vehicle start time is found, and no satellite signal strength of the required level is found. In this embodiment, the specific time is preset to 10 minutes. If no satellite signal of the required level is found within 10 minutes of tracing back, then another 20 minutes are tracing back to find a satellite signal that meets the requirements, until the vehicle start time is found.

[0059] The guidance route and the satellite guidance direction are sent to the display device for display. The intensity level includes three levels: poor, normal and strong. The satellite signal is divided into three intensity levels: poor, normal and strong according to the defined signal-to-noise ratio setting value.

[0060] This application provides a method for vehicles to automatically find the location with the strongest signal without a terrestrial network by using vehicle-mounted satellite communication. The method achieves network connection through vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment, displays satellite signal strength on the vehicle's infotainment system or various terminal apps, and records key information such as satellite signal strength, location coordinates, and satellite orientation during the vehicle's journey. Based on the recorded satellite signal and coordinates, the method calculates routes and recommends the nearest location with the strongest signal or the direction of the strongest satellite signal.

[0061] The system displays signal strength on the vehicle's infotainment system or various terminal apps based on satellite signals received by the satellite communication equipment, updating in real time for easy signal monitoring. It records the time, location coordinates, signal strength, and satellite position every minute after the vehicle starts. It provides directional arrows every minute based on the satellite position, indicating that the signal is relatively strong when facing the satellite directly without obstructions. Based on the recorded signal and coordinates, it calculates the location with the strongest signal within a set minute and generates a guide route. If the strongest signal strength within the set minute does not reach the normal signal strength, it continues to add historical data for calculation until a suitable signal location or vehicle starting point is found.

[0062] Firstly, the signal strength is displayed intuitively, allowing users to clearly see and easily navigate. Secondly, two signal guidance methods are provided: real-time satellite location guidance, as the signal is relatively strong in that direction; and a recommended route to the nearest point with the strongest signal. This ensures relatively stable emergency communication quality in the absence of a terrestrial network, giving users a clear direction in emergencies.

[0063] The process of displaying satellite signal strength is as follows: the vehicle starts recording data upon startup; the current satellite signal data is acquired and processed; the satellite signal is divided into three strength levels according to the defined signal-to-noise ratio setting value: poor, normal, and strong; the current satellite signal data is compared with the three signal strength values ​​to determine the current signal strength; the determined signal strength is displayed in real time to the vehicle's infotainment system or various terminal apps.

[0064] Specifically, the satellite signal strength location guidance process takes two forms: The first is based on the satellite's location; the signal is strongest when directly facing the satellite's direction and without obstruction. The process involves: starting the vehicle; acquiring and recording data, first recording the vehicle's ignition time, location coordinates, and satellite signal strength as the starting point; then recording time, location coordinates, satellite signal strength, and satellite location every minute; calculating the satellite guidance direction based on the satellite location and vehicle coordinates; displaying the satellite guidance direction and the relative positions of the vehicle and satellite on the app, indicating that the signal is strongest when directly facing the satellite's direction and without obstruction. Users can then use this directional guidance combined with the current terrain to find the strongest satellite signal along the route. The second method calculates and selects the strongest satellite signal within the nearest distance from locations already passed along the route, thus generating a route for guidance. The specific implementation process is as follows... Figure 2 The process is as follows: Step 1: Vehicle starts; Step 2: Data acquisition and recording. First, record the vehicle ignition start time, location coordinates, and satellite signal strength, which is recorded as the starting point. Then, record the time, location coordinates, satellite signal strength, and satellite azimuth every minute; Step 5: Calculate the strongest signal within the last ten minutes based on the recorded time, location coordinates, and satellite signal strength; Determine if this strongest signal is at or above the normal signal strength and if the data has reached the starting point. If it is at the normal signal strength or the calculated data has reached the starting point, proceed to the next step. If it has not reached the normal signal strength, return and continue adding data from the previous ten minutes for calculation; Calculate and generate the guiding route based on the selected strongest signal location coordinates or starting point coordinates combined with the coordinates of locations along the route; Display the guiding route on the APP.

[0065] The vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment uses recorded data for route guidance and satellite orientation to automatically recommend directions and locations with strong satellite signals when emergency communication signals are weak or unstable. This method can effectively solve the communication failure problem caused by unstable signals when emergency communication is needed.

The calculation module is used to calculate and generate a guidance route based on the target vehicle's location coordinates so that the vehicle can travel according to the guidance route to find satellite signals and achieve normal communication; it is also used to, if it searches for all satellite signal strengths within a specific time period before the vehicle's real-time time and finds no satellite signal strength of the normal level, obtain the vehicle's location coordinates and satellite azimuth for the vehicle's forward movement, calculate a satellite guidance direction based on the vehicle's location coordinates and satellite azimuth for the vehicle to travel according to the satellite guidance direction; while the vehicle is traveling according to the satellite guidance direction, it acquires the satellite signal strength in real time, and when the acquired satellite signal strength is of the normal level, it issues a prompt to stop the vehicle; and sends the guidance route and the satellite guidance direction to a display device for display; specifically, it searches for all satellite signal strengths within ten minutes before the vehicle's real-time time, and if no satellite signal strength of the normal level is found, it continues to search for all satellite signal strengths within twenty minutes before the vehicle's real-time time, and cyclically searches for satellite signal strengths until the vehicle's start time is found and no satellite signal strength of the normal level is found.
