Smart devices can provide users with a safe, healthy, and comfortable living environment. Current smart device technologies transmit and control signals wirelessly and via wired connections, using a host computer as the server and data management center for the entire smart home system. While using a PC as the main controller offers significant advantages in processing speed, system functionality, and stability, the changing mobility of smart devices and the evolving application scenarios of fixed homes present challenges. Regarding networking, the diversity of monitoring sensors and monitoring information necessitates addressing how to quickly establish a monitoring network that is compatible with other existing smart devices and effectively utilizes the information. This has become a key issue for millimeter-wave sensor information management. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above, the present invention proposes a millimeter-wave-based monitoring information processing system, which includes multiple sensor terminals, a central controller, and a server.

[0004] The server configures different identification information for multiple terminals to distinguish between wireless sensors and non-wireless sensors; group identification information and location information fields are reserved in the initial configuration control information of the wireless sensors.

[0006] Based on the received monitoring information, the server learns the pre-event trigger information corresponding to the user identification information, obtains the event policy matching the trigger event from the preset configuration rules, and triggers the monitoring operation of multiple types of sensors.

[0007] In response to the event triggering information, the central controller sends a request message to the server. The request message includes the user identity and session information associated with the user identity. Based on the associated session information, different session operations are initiated according to the level of the triggering event.

[0008] Preferably, the location information is matched to the application scenario, and the location information identifies the specific location information in a home, hospital, or commercial area.

[0020] Referring to the following description and accompanying drawings, these and other features and characteristics, methods of operation, functions of related elements of the structure, combinations of parts, and economics of manufacture of this disclosure can be better understood, wherein the description and drawings form part of the specification. However, it is clearly understood that the drawings are for illustrative and descriptive purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this disclosure. It is understood that the drawings are not drawn to scale. Various structural diagrams are used in this disclosure to illustrate various variations of embodiments according to this disclosure. Example

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the millimeter-wave-based monitoring information processing system includes multiple sensing terminals, a central controller, and a server; the server configures different identification information for the multiple terminals to distinguish between wireless and non-wireless sensors; and reserves group identification information and location information fields in the initial configuration control information of the wireless sensors.

[0022] The server constructs a self-organizing network with multiple wireless sensor terminals through a centralized controller, and the sensors interact with the server through the centralized controller; when the wireless sensors upload monitoring information, user identification information is set in the header of the data packet of the uploaded monitoring information.

[0023] Based on the received monitoring information, the server obtains the pre-triggered event information corresponding to the user identification information, retrieves the event policy matching the trigger event from the preset configuration rules, and triggers the monitoring operation of multiple types of sensors. In response to the event trigger information, the central controller sends a request message to the server. The request message includes the user identity and the session information associated with the user identity. Based on the associated session information, different session operations are initiated according to the level of the trigger event. The location information is matched to the application scenario, and the location information identifies the specific location information in a home, hospital, or commercial area.

[0024] The event strategy corresponds to the user's application environment. The pre-triggered event information is a fall event. The monitoring operations of the multiple sensor types include acquiring location information and triggering the sensing light information of other wireless sensors, triggering linked lighting operations, and associated alarm operations of user devices. Based on the associated session information, different session operations are initiated according to the level of the triggered event. This also includes: the central controller responding to triggers based on the pre-reserved trigger configurations in the server, according to different trigger configuration priorities. The user's pre-reserved trigger configurations in the server include setting to disable or enable associated sessions based on different time periods. The associated sessions are voice calls, SMS notifications, or linked warning alarms. Triggering the monitoring operations of the multiple sensor types includes: triggering authorization authentication information based on the user identifier, configuring the corresponding wireless sensor from a locked state to an unlocked state, and uploading the monitoring information to the server. The controller terminal periodically monitors the link quality of the wireless sensor terminals to determine whether the wireless sensor communication link is interrupted. When the wireless sensor link and the server link configuration are not working, the server prioritizes using and receiving broadcast information indicating that the network supports paging based on user identity. The corresponding wireless sensor, based on receiving the broadcast information, sends a data connection service request message.

[0025] The wireless sensor's data service request information, transmitted via broadcast, also includes a server network side setting up an authentication request upon access. Upon successful authentication, the server re-establishes the link connection to the wireless sensor network. This link re-establishment includes selecting other link nodes for relaying or re-establishing the routing mode.

[0026] In a specific embodiment, the server in the system is configured with identification information for different sensors, which can distinguish between wireless and non-wireless sensors. For example, they can be distinguished as millimeter-wave sensors or non-millimeter-wave sensors. Preferably, the initial configuration of the server's wireless sensors reserves group identification information and location information fields. The location information field is used to identify specific location information, which is used for linkage based on event-triggered information. The location information and identity information can be used to perform association operations on the monitoring settings associated with the user based on the identity information. During data monitoring, monitoring information related to the user identifier is uploaded in the uploaded monitoring information, enabling the association of the same sensor with different user identities. In actual settings, the transmission field of the data packet header is set according to the size of the reserved field to determine the priority of the user identifier that can be uploaded. The upload priority of the user identifier is related to the weight of the user identifier device in the server.

[0027] Based on the received monitoring information, the system parses and receives the user's identity information, obtains the user's pre-triggered event information, retrieves the event strategy matching the trigger event from the preset configuration rules, and triggers the monitoring operation of multiple types of sensors. The preset strategy is adapted to the user's application environment. Optionally, when the monitoring system is used for indoor elderly monitoring, and the monitored event is a fall event in an indoor environment, the user terminal device can pre-send configuration information to the server or to the central controller. When a fall event occurs, it retrieves the location information, triggers the sensor lighting information of other devices, and triggers the linked lighting operation and associated alarm operation.

[0028] Simultaneously, in response to the triggering event, a request message is sent to the communication network. This communication service network is not limited to self-organizing networks but also includes operator communication networks, LTE data networks, etc. Through connection and association with the aforementioned networks, the wireless sensor network will trigger sessions for user-associated devices within a third-party operator. The associated session request can be triggered by a centralized controller, which includes sending a request message to a server. This request message includes the user's identity and session information associated with that identity; the associated sessions are initiated based on the level of the triggering event.

[0029] Optionally, the user terminal is configured in the network server to allow or require feedback alert information. The allowance of feedback refers to sending a message to the associated third party and its associated terminal when the user triggers an event. In a preferred embodiment, when a user triggers an event requiring interaction with other sensors or user terminals, but a higher-level user, such as during a meeting or when it is inconvenient to be disturbed, has already reserved and pre-configured an identifier in the server. When the event triggers a response in the network server, a verification message can be executed from the trigger configuration in the server. Subsequently, according to the priority setting of the matching configuration, a response is triggered. The trigger response is configured to determine whether session information is allowed to be associated with the user's identity, thereby triggering the corresponding linkage mechanism.

[0030] In a specific implementation, the configuration message triggered from the server also includes triggering authorization authentication information based on the user's configuration, configuring the corresponding millimeter-wave sensor from a locked state to an unlocked state. Preferably, user identity information is used to perform network authentication for users associated with that user identity.

[0031] The centralized controller is based on wireless sensor indications. When the link between the wireless sensor and the server is not configured to be connected, the server prioritizes receiving broadcast information indicating that the network supports paging based on user identity. The corresponding wireless sensor sends a request message to the network based on receiving the broadcast information.

[0032] The server prioritizes using broadcast messages, which configure relayable nodes. These relay nodes are differentiated between wireless sensor nodes and non-wireless sensor nodes. Wireless sensors that have interrupted transmission respond to the broadcast message by requesting network access authentication. Optionally, since broadcast messages are publicly broadcast within the area, the network terminal can also configure an authentication request operation upon access. This authentication request operation specifically involves: receiving an authentication request from the requester node (corresponding terminal), the authentication request including the identity associated with the requester node and the user identity associated with the user equipment communicating with the requester node; obtaining information associated with the user identity in response to the authentication request; and performing authentication on the user equipment or third-party device based on the above information, wherein the user identity is independent of the device identity associated with the user equipment, so that the user can access the network after authentication.

[0033] In a specific implementation, based on the access request message, the server configures the relay device to send initialization and sensor activation commands to the wireless sensor through the control interface module, and then the device thread enters a sleep state. When the sensor terminal generates new data, the relay device will notify a control terminal or server, which will wake up the device thread to process the data. Optionally, the device thread can convert the data format through a data standardization module, and then pass the data to the data transmission module for transmission. After processing all the data, the device thread enters a sleep state again to save system resources.

[0034] The server configures policy rules associated with each user. Policy rules can describe which applications and associated devices will run after each user or triggered event, the application identifiers that each user's identity can use, and the time and place of the day when the user can use or trigger interactions or applications.

[0035] In a specific implementation, the link communication monitoring of the wireless sensor includes: a server monitoring the status of the wireless sensor; setting a central control point (i.e., a centralized controller) in the group; the wireless central control point can be a household appliance with a standby power supply, optionally set according to the application scenario; configuring the network to determine whether the wireless sensor and the wireless central control point are successfully connected; if the wireless sensor and the central control point are successfully connected, determining whether the link quality meets the requirements; if the link quality meets the requirements, the wireless sensor normally sends business data to the backend server through the central control point; if the link quality does not meet the transmission requirements, the server optimizes the connection link. Optionally, the optimization configuration may be based on signal strength indication and reliability connection coefficient obtained from historical data to comprehensively judge the link quality.

[0036] In a specific implementation, the wireless sensor actively sends a handshake message to the central control point to test the network connection. If the central control point fails to establish a connection with the wireless sensor, it increases its transmission power. If the transmission power reaches the wireless sensor's limit and it still cannot connect to the central control point, it initiates a routing function, searching for nearby wireless sensors in the same group to act as relay nodes for relay transmission, thus re-establishing the link. This relay will act as a signal relay between the wireless sensor and the central control point, transmitting data via a relay-based uplink mode.
