[0051] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0052] The data transmission method provided in this application can plan the optimal path for information transmission based on the distance between various smart devices, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] In the control of intelligent devices, there are situations where it is necessary to control devices that are far away or outside the system across systems and regions. When the distance between the device to be controlled and the controller is too far or direct communication is hindered, the technical solution provided in this application can achieve more convenient and reliable control and information interaction.

[0055] Figure 1 The diagram illustrates the implementation flow of a data transmission method provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

[0056] See Figure 1 The data transmission method provided in this embodiment of the invention may include steps 101 to 103.

[0057] Prior to step 101, the method further includes a partitioning device:

[0058] Based on pre-stored device classification rules, each device is divided into either Category I or Category II devices. Category I devices belong to Category I areas, and Category II devices belong to Category II areas.

[0059] In some embodiments, classifying devices into Class I or Class II devices based on pre-stored device classification rules includes:

[0060] Establish a coordinate system and determine the position coordinates of each device;

[0061] Based on the distance relationship of location coordinates and the device classification rules, each device is classified into either Category I or Category II devices.

[0062] The equipment categories are not limited to Class I and Class II equipment; they can include multiple categories.

[0063] The terms "Category I" and "Category II" are used only to distinguish categories, not to limit functionality. In this embodiment, data transmission can be performed not only from Category I devices to Category II devices, but also from Category II devices to Category I devices; all types of devices have the same functionality.

[0064] Step 101: Receive data to be transmitted based on a type of device; the number of such devices is at least one; the data to be transmitted carries target device information;

[0065] Step 102: If the target device information corresponds to a target type II device, then obtain the type I device that is closest to the target type II device as the target type I device; the number of type II devices is at least one.

[0066] In some embodiments, step 102 includes:

[0067] The device closest to the target device is selected as the candidate device.

[0068] Determine whether the candidate device is currently performing a data transmission task;

[0069] If the candidate device does not have a data transmission task in progress, then the candidate device will be used as the target device.

[0070] In some embodiments, obtaining the device closest to the target type II device as the target type I device further includes:

[0071] If the candidate device is performing a data transmission task, then the device that is second closest to the target device is selected as the candidate device.

[0072] Determine whether the candidate device is currently performing a data transmission task;

[0073] If the candidate device does not have a data transmission task in progress, then the candidate device will be used as the target device.

[0074] Optionally, select a Class I device that is closest to the target Class II device and is not currently performing a data transmission task as the target Class I device.

[0075] Step 103: Send the data to be transmitted from the target type one device to the target type two device.

[0076] In some embodiments, step 103 includes:

[0077] When the target type one device starts executing a data transmission task, it will no longer receive new data transmission tasks until it receives feedback data sent by the target type two device.

[0078] Similarly, when the target type II device starts performing a data receiving task, it will no longer receive new data transmission tasks until it sends feedback data to the target type I device.

[0079] The data transmission method provided in this invention can plan the optimal path for information transmission based on the distance between various smart devices, thereby efficiently and reliably controlling multiple smart devices distributed in multiple locations, improving system stability and reliability, and enhancing user experience.

[0080] Example 2

[0081] The following specific example further illustrates the implementation of the present invention.

[0082] First, establish a coordinate system and determine the position coordinates of each device within the coordinate system.

[0083] Optionally, the location of each device can be determined by using the host of the IoT system as the origin of the coordinate system.

[0084] Based on the spatial relationships of the devices or their actual application scenarios, devices can be divided into different areas. For example, in the field of smart manufacturing, devices in the same workshop are grouped into one area; in the field of smart homes, devices in the same room are grouped into one area; or the areas can be divided according to the existing system architecture, with devices connected to the same controller grouped into one area.

[0085] Figure 2 An example diagram of region division in the method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0086] In a specific example, the first area is called area A, and the second area is called area B. The devices in area A include a1, a2, a3, a4, etc., and the devices in area B include b1, b2, b3, b4, etc.

[0087] When a user issues a control command to device b1 in area A, the device closest to device b1 in area A is determined based on the location coordinates of each device, such as a1.

[0088] Determine whether the nearest device a1 in region A is performing other data transmission tasks, and whether the current data transmission task can be executed.

[0089] If device a1 can perform its current data transmission task, it will transmit the data to device b1. While device a1 is executing its current data transmission task, it will not perform any other data transmission tasks to protect the speed and quality of data transmission. Only after device a1 receives feedback information from device b1 can it end its current data transmission task. When device b1 receives data and instructions from device a1, it will also not perform any other data receiving or sending tasks until it sends feedback information to device a1, thus ensuring the reliability and stability of data transmission.

[0090] In summary, the data transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present invention can effectively realize the control of multiple intelligent devices across regions and systems, improve the stability and reliability of the system, and enhance the user experience.
