[0036] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0037] It should be noted that in the embodiments of this application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or explanations. Any embodiment or design scheme described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or design schemes. Specifically, the use of the words "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0038] To facilitate a clear description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used in the embodiments of this application to distinguish the same or similar items with essentially the same function and effect. Those skilled in the art can understand that the terms "first" and "second" are not intended to limit the quantity or execution order.

[0039] As described in the background section, when an enterprise needs to conduct fixed-line telephone voice communication services, the operator needs to connect the service aggregation equipment to the telephone through an optical access network so that the telephone can conduct voice communication services through the optical access network.

[0040] Figure 1 A schematic diagram is shown of a telephone implementing voice communication services through an optical access network, such as... Figure 1 As shown, telephone 101 can send voice communication data to PON device 102. After receiving the voice communication data, PON device 102 can send the voice communication data to optical line terminal (OLT) 104 through optical splitter 103, thereby enabling telephone 101 to perform voice communication services through OLT 104.

[0041] Currently, telephones use optical access networks to provide voice communication services. However, when the optical access network fails, the telephone cannot provide voice communication services, resulting in low reliability of the voice communication service.

[0042] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a communication method applied to an electronic device. The electronic device is communicatively connected to a wired communication device. The communication method includes: the electronic device can receive voice communication data sent by the wired communication device. When a failure is determined in the first communication method, the electronic device can send voice communication data to a serving aggregation device through a second communication method. The first and second communication methods are, respectively, an optical access network-based communication method and a pre-configured transmission network-based communication method.

[0043] As can be seen from the above, when one communication method fails, electronic devices can send voice communication data through another communication method, thereby making the voice communication service of wired communication devices more reliable.

[0044] This communication method is applicable to communication systems. Figure 2 One structure of the communication system is shown. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the communication system includes: wired communication equipment 201, electronic equipment 202, and service aggregation equipment 203.

[0045] The wired communication device 201 and the electronic device 202 are connected in communication. The electronic device 202 is also connected in communication with the service aggregation device 203.

[0046] Optionally, the wired communication device 201 can be a digital telephone, an Internet Protocol (IP) telephone, a traditional telephone, etc., and this application embodiment does not limit it.

[0047] Optionally, electronic device 202 may be a device that integrates routing switching device and MSTP device, and may also include routing switching device and Multi Service Transport Platform (MSTP) device. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0048] The routing switching device can be a switch, router, etc., and has functions such as Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and link aggregation. When the routing switching device detects a timeout for the loss of available data packets, it determines that the communication method transmitting voice communication data has failed.

[0049] MSTP devices have switching capabilities. Unlike data communication switches, the first MSTP device 304 and the second MSTP device 307 have synchronous transmission protocols, enabling Layer 2 data pass-through. They also have photoelectric conversion capabilities and can access the transmission network via optical fiber to provide voice communication services to wired communication equipment. MSTP devices integrate multiple independent devices, such as traditional Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) multiplexers, Digital Cross Connectors (DXCs), Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) terminals, Layer 2 network switches, and IP edge routers, into a single network device for unified control and management.

[0050] Optionally, the transmission network can be an MSTP transmission network, an optical transmission network, a dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) transmission network, or an SDH transmission network. This application does not limit the specific network to any particular type.

[0051] Optionally, the service aggregation device 203 can be equipment in the operator's data center.

[0052] In this application, wired communication device 201 is used to send voice communication data to electronic device 202. Subsequently, electronic device 202 sends voice communication data to service aggregation device 203 via a first communication method and / or a second communication method. In this case, service aggregation device 203 sends the received voice communication data to electronic device 202. Electronic device 202 sends voice communication data to other wired communication devices 201, enabling wired communication devices 201 to perform voice communication services.

[0053] In one feasible approach, when the routing switching device and the MSTP device are not integrated into a single device... Figure 3 Another structure of this communication system is shown. (Combined with...) Figure 2 ,like Figure 3 As shown, the communication system includes: a telephone 301 (i.e., the wired communication device 201 in this application), a first passive optical network (PON) device 302 (also known as a large optical modem), a routing switching device 303, a first MSTP device 304, a single-port optical transceiver 305 (also known as a small optical modem), a first optical splitter 306, a second MSTP device 307, a second PON device 308, a second optical splitter 309, and an optical line terminal (OLT) 310 (the second MSTP device 307, the second PON device 308, the second optical splitter 309, and the OLT 310 are the service aggregation device 203 in this application).

[0054] In this system, telephone 301 is connected to the downlink port of the first PON device 302 via a telephone line. The downlink port of the first PON device 302 is connected to the routing switch device 303 via a network cable. The routing switch device 303 is connected to the first MSTP device 304 via a network cable. The first MSTP device 304 is connected to the second MSTP device 307 via a transmission network. The second MSTP device 307 is connected to the second PON device 308 via a network cable. The second PON device 308 is connected to the second optical splitter 309 via an optical fiber cable. The second optical splitter 309 is connected to the OLT 310 via an optical fiber cable.

[0055] The routing switch device 303 can also communicate with the single-port optical transceiver 305 via a network cable. The single-port optical transceiver 305 communicates with the first optical splitter 306 via a network cable. The first optical splitter 306 communicates with the OLT310 via an optical fiber cable.

[0056] It should be noted that the OLT310 is connected to the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) via fiber optic cable. The IMS is used to provide voice communication services to telephone 301.

[0057] Optionally, the physical devices of the first PON device 302 and the second PON device 308 can be optical network units (ONUs) capable of transmitting voice communication data.

[0058] The first PON device 302 and the second PON device 308 are also known as integrated access devices. They can be used in optical access networks, have more ports and stronger functions, possess certain Layer 2 switching capabilities, and support protocols such as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). They can provide multiple ports, including telephone, Ethernet, and optical ports. The physical devices of the first PON device 302 and the second PON device 308 can be Optical Network Units (ONUs) capable of transmitting communication data. Their port count can be 16, 32, 64, etc.

[0059] The SIP protocol can create, modify, and release sessions of one or more participants, providing complete session creation and session modification services for a variety of instant messaging services.

[0060] A first MSTP device 304 can communicate with one or more first PON devices 302. A second MSTP device 307 can communicate with one or more second PON devices 308.

[0061] Optionally, the first beam splitter 306 and the second beam splitter 309 can perform splitting and multiplexing functions. The output ports of the first beam splitter 306 and the second beam splitter 309 can be 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, etc., corresponding to model numbers of 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16, 1:32, etc.

[0062] Optionally, the uplink optical port of the OLT310 can be connected to the IMS via optical fiber, and the downlink optical port of the OLT310 (1 Gigabyte (G) or 10 G) can be connected to the first optical splitter 306 and the second optical splitter 309 via optical fiber.

[0063] Optionally, the communication system also includes a monitoring client 312. The monitoring client 312 is connected to the operator's network management center 311. The operator's network management center collects the device operation information of each device in the communication system periodically through the network management protocol and sends the device operation information to the monitoring client 312 in order to maintain each device in the communication system.

[0064] Optionally, when a device malfunctions, the monitoring client 312 can obtain the operating information of the malfunctioning device through the operator's network management center 311, and can output alarm information via SMS, voice, vibration, etc., so that the operator's maintenance personnel can handle the malfunctioning device.

[0065] Optionally, the physical device of the monitoring client 312 can be a server, a terminal, or other types of electronic devices, and this application embodiment does not limit this.

[0066] Optionally, the aforementioned terminal may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, a handheld device with wireless connectivity, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. The terminal may communicate with one or more core networks via a radio access network (RAN). The terminal may be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone) and a computer with a mobile terminal, or a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-embedded, or vehicle-mounted mobile device that exchanges voice and / or data with the radio access network, such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, netbook, or personal digital assistant (PDA).

[0068] like Figure 4 The diagram shown is a hardware structure schematic of a communication device provided in an embodiment of this application. The communication device includes a processor 21, a memory 22, a communication interface 23, and a bus 24. The processor 21, the memory 22, and the communication interface 23 are connected via the bus 24.

[0069] Processor 21 is the control center of the communication device. It can be a single processor or a collective term for multiple processing elements. For example, processor 21 can be a general-purpose central processing unit (CPU) or other general-purpose processors. Among them, the general-purpose processor can be a microprocessor or any conventional processor.

[0070] As one embodiment, processor 21 may include one or more CPUs, for example Figure 4CPU 0 and CPU 1 are shown in the diagram.

[0071] The memory 22 may be a read-only memory (ROM) or other type of static storage device capable of storing static information and instructions, random access memory (RAM) or other type of dynamic storage device capable of storing information and instructions, or electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), disk storage media or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium capable of carrying or storing desired program code in the form of instructions or data structures and accessible by a computer, but is not limited thereto.

[0072] In one possible implementation, the memory 22 can exist independently of the processor 21. The memory 22 can be connected to the processor 21 via a bus 24 and is used to store instructions or program code. When the processor 21 calls and executes the instructions or program code stored in the memory 22, it can implement the communication method provided in the following embodiments of this application.

[0073] In this embodiment, the software programs stored in the memory 22 differ for the electronic device 202, resulting in different functions implemented by the electronic device 202. The functions performed by each device will be described in conjunction with the following flowchart.

[0074] In another possible implementation, the memory 22 can also be integrated with the processor 21.

[0075] Communication interface 23 is used for connecting the communication device to other devices via a communication network, which may be Ethernet, wireless access network, wireless local area network (WLAN), etc. Communication interface 23 may include a receiving unit for receiving data and a sending unit for sending data.

[0076] Bus 24 can be an industry standard architecture (ISA) bus, a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus, or an extended industry standard architecture (EISA) bus, etc. This bus can be divided into address bus, data bus, control bus, etc. For ease of representation, Figure 4The bus is represented by a single thick line, but this does not mean that there is only one bus or one type of bus.

[0077] Figure 5 Another hardware structure of the communication device in an embodiment of this application is shown. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the communication device may include a processor 31 and a communication interface 32. The processor 31 is coupled to the communication interface 32.

[0078] The functions of processor 31 can be referred to in the description of processor 21 above. In addition, processor 31 also has a storage function, and can perform the functions of memory 22 mentioned above.

[0079] The communication interface 32 is used to provide data to the processor 31. The communication interface 32 can be an internal interface of the communication device or an external interface of the communication device (equivalent to communication interface 23).

[0080] It should be pointed out that, Figure 4 (or Figure 5 The structure shown in the diagram does not constitute a limitation on the communication device, except... Figure 4 (or Figure 5 In addition to the components shown in the diagram, the communication device may include more or fewer components than shown, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0081] The communication method provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0082] The communication method provided in the embodiments of this application is applied to Figure 2 Electronic device 202 in the communication system shown. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the communication method provided in this application embodiment includes:

[0083] S601. The electronic device receives voice communication data sent by the wired communication device.

[0084] Among them, electronic devices are connected to wired communication devices.

[0085] Specifically, when a wired communication device enables voice communication, it can send voice communication data. Then, an electronic device can receive the voice communication data sent by the wired communication device through the communication connection between the electronic device and the wired communication device.

[0086] S602. When it is determined that the first communication method has failed, the electronic device sends voice communication data to the service aggregation device through the second communication method.

[0087] Among the first and second communication methods, one is a communication method based on an optical access network, and the other is a communication method based on a pre-configured transmission network.

[0088] Specifically, after receiving voice communication data from a wired communication device, the electronic device can send voice communication data to the serving aggregation device via the optical access network and / or the transmission network. In this case, since one of the first communication methods is based on the optical access network and the other on a pre-configured transmission network, when the first communication method fails, the electronic device can send voice communication data to the serving aggregation device via the second communication method. That is, when the optical access network fails, the electronic device sends voice communication data to the serving aggregation device via the transmission network. Or, when the transmission network fails, the electronic device sends voice communication data to the serving aggregation device via the optical access network.

[0089] Optionally, when the electronic device determines that the first communication method has failed, the operator's network management center can obtain the failure information of the first communication method through the electronic device. Then, the monitoring client obtains the failure information of the first communication method from the operator's network management center, and subsequently, the monitoring client can output a prompt message to remind the operator's maintenance personnel to handle the failure of the first communication method.

[0090] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 6 ,like Figure 7 As shown, the communication method provided in this application embodiment further includes:

[0091] S701. When it is determined that the first communication method is not faulty and the amount of data received by the electronic device is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, based on the load balancing condition, the electronic device sends voice communication data to the service aggregation device through the first communication method and the second communication method.

[0092] Among them, the data received by the electronic device refers to the amount of voice communication data received by the electronic device from the wired communication device.

[0093] Optionally, since the first communication method can be either the optical access network or the transmission network, when the first communication method is not faulty, neither the optical access network nor the transmission network is faulty. In this case, the electronic device can send voice communication data to the serving aggregation device via the first communication method and / or the second communication method.

[0094] Optionally, when the amount of data received by the electronic device is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, and the electronic device sends voice communication data to the serving aggregation device through the first communication method, the electronic device can determine that the transmission pressure of the first communication method (i.e., the optical access network or transmission network) for transmitting voice communication data is relatively high. Therefore, based on load balancing conditions, the electronic device can send voice communication data to the serving aggregation device through both the first and second communication methods. In this way, the electronic device can simultaneously send voice communication data through both the first and second communication methods to reduce the transmission pressure of the optical access network and the transmission network for transmitting voice communication data.

[0095] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 7 ,like Figure 8 As shown, the communication method provided in this application embodiment further includes:

[0096] S801. When it is determined that the first communication method is not faulty and the amount of data received by the electronic device is less than a preset threshold, the electronic device sends voice communication data to the service aggregation device through the first communication method.

[0097] Optionally, when the electronic device determines that the first communication method is not faulty, then neither the optical access network nor the transmission network has failed. In this case, when the electronic device determines that the amount of data received is less than a preset threshold, the electronic device determines that the transmission pressure when transmitting voice communication data using the first communication method is relatively low. The electronic device can then send voice communication data to the serving aggregation device through the first communication method; that is, the electronic device can send voice communication data to the serving aggregation device through either the optical access network or the transmission network.

[0098] It should be noted that when the electronic device is a routing switcher, operator maintenance personnel can execute routing redundancy backup commands on the routing switcher to enable it to perform the following operations: The routing switcher sets the transmission network as the primary route and the optical access network as the backup route. The routing switcher transmits voice communication data through the primary route; when the transmission network fails, the backup route is used. Alternatively, the routing switcher sets the optical access network as the primary route and the transmission network as the backup route. The routing switcher transmits voice communication data through the primary route; when the transmission network fails, the backup route is used. Alternatively, the routing switcher sets the priority of the optical access network and the transmission network to a first preset value and the cost values ​​of the optical access network and the transmission network to a second preset value; in this case, the routing switcher uses both the optical access network and the transmission network to transmit voice communication data.

[0099] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 8 ,like Figure 9 As shown, the communication method provided in this application embodiment further includes:

[0100] S901. In response to a communication configuration operation, the electronic device configures its device parameters to enable the electronic device to establish a communication method with the service aggregation device based on the transmission network.

[0101] The device parameters include at least one of the following: device interface and data transmission rate.

[0102] Specifically, in order for wired communication devices to send voice communication data to service aggregation devices via the transmission network, electronic devices can respond to communication configuration operations and configure device parameters such as device interfaces and data transmission rates, so that electronic devices and service aggregation devices can establish a communication method based on the transmission network.

[0103] Optionally, after the electronic equipment and service aggregation equipment establish a communication method based on the transmission network, the monitoring client detects the optical access network and transmission network through the operator's network management center. When a fault is detected in either communication method, the monitoring client outputs a prompt message to prompt the operator's maintenance personnel to handle the fault. When no fault is detected in the optical access network and transmission network, the monitoring client outputs a prompt message to prompt the user to conduct voice communication.

[0104] When electronic devices transmit voice communication data via the first communication method, the monitoring client can detect whether the first communication method or the second communication method has failed through the operator's network management center. When the first communication method fails but the second communication method does not fail, the electronic devices transmit voice communication data via the second communication method.

[0105] For example, assuming the electronic equipment is a user-side MSTP device, the service aggregation equipment includes an operator-side MSTP device, an operator-side PON device, an operator-side optical splitter, and an operator-side OLT. Operator maintenance personnel can perform communication configuration operations on both the user-side and operator-side MSTP devices, configuring device parameters such as interface settings and data transmission rates. In this way, the user-side and operator-side MSTP devices can establish a transmission network-based communication method between the user side and the operator's equipment room side.

[0106] In some embodiments, the above description mainly focuses on the various steps of the communication method provided in this application. The complete flow of the communication method provided in this application is described below in conjunction with the above embodiments. For example... Figure 10 As shown, the communication method provided in this application embodiment specifically includes:

[0109] S1002. The electronic device responds to the configuration operation of the routing redundancy backup command, configures the routing redundancy backup command so that the electronic device can send voice communication data through the optical access network and / or the transmission network.
