Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of digital intelligent equipment, and relates to a remote monitoring system and method for intelligent equipment based on equipment communication interface and protocol. Background Art

[0002] In the existing base station system, digital devices (such as antenna equipment, radio frequency equipment, power supply equipment, environmental monitoring equipment, fault detection equipment, etc.) are monitored and managed objects, and different management needs are required at different times, from different angles, and by different managers. Therefore, new monitoring functions will be added to the existing IoT monitoring and management architecture. These new monitoring functions can be implemented by connecting a monitoring module with a specific function based on the communication interface and communication protocol of the device. In this case, how to achieve effective management of the monitored objects by FSU is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a remote monitoring system and method for intelligent devices based on device communication interfaces and protocols, so as to achieve effective management of FSU and monitored objects.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the basic scheme of the present invention is: a remote monitoring system for intelligent devices based on device communication interface and protocol, comprising a monitoring module, the monitoring module is connected in series between the intelligent device and the FSU unit, the monitoring module has a communication protocol for parsing the first functional part of the intelligent device to realize the reception and forwarding of the communication information of the first functional part between the FSU unit and the intelligent device;

[0005] The monitoring module also has the function of controlling the intelligent device to execute the second functional part as needed, so as to realize the control of the intelligent device to execute the second functional part and realize the transmission of the communication information of the second functional part between the FSU unit and the intelligent device through the preset signal dictionary table;

[0006] The communication protocol of the first functional part is a communication protocol that can directly communicate between the FSU unit and the smart device;

[0007] The signal dictionary table of the second functional part is a newly added setting in the monitoring module, and a communication protocol that cannot be used for direct communication between the FSU unit and the intelligent device.

[0008] The working principle and beneficial effects of this basic solution are as follows: This technical solution adds a new monitoring module between the FSU unit and the smart device, and realizes the monitoring functions of regular automatic capacity verification and peak shaving and valley filling of the base station battery through the communication interface and protocol of the smart device, and uses a new signal dictionary table to realize regular automatic capacity verification of the battery and peak shaving and valley filling of electricity charges.

[0009] Furthermore, the intelligent device is one of an antenna device, a radio frequency device, a power supply device, an environmental monitoring device, and a fault detection device.

[0010] There is a wide variety of smart devices, making them easy to monitor.

[0011] Further, when the intelligent device is a power supply device, the first functional part of the intelligent device is a remote signaling, remote measurement, remote control, and remote adjustment monitoring function;

[0012] The second functional part of the smart device is the function of periodically and automatically checking the capacity and shaving the peak and filling the valley of electricity charges.

[0013] It can meet the needs of monitoring power supply equipment and realize regular automatic battery capacity verification and peak-shaving and valley-filling of electricity charges.

[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a remote dynamic environment monitoring platform, which is connected to the FSU unit.

[0015] Setting up a remote dynamic environment monitoring platform is convenient for remote reception or sending of remote signals.

[0016] The present invention also provides a remote monitoring method for intelligent devices based on device communication interface and protocol for the system of the present invention, comprising the following steps:

[0017] A monitoring module is connected in series between the smart device and the FSU unit, the monitoring module has a communication protocol for parsing the first functional part of the smart device to realize the reception and forwarding of the communication information of the first functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device, and the monitoring module also has a function of controlling the smart device to execute the second functional part as needed to control the smart device to execute the second functional part and realize the transmission of the communication information of the second functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device through a preset signal dictionary table; the communication protocol of the first functional part is a communication protocol that can be directly communicated between the FSU unit and the smart device; the signal dictionary table of the second functional part is a newly added setting in the monitoring module, and is a communication protocol that cannot be directly communicated between the FSU unit and the smart device;

[0018] The monitoring module receives the control command and determines whether to control the smart device to execute the second functional part. If the second functional part does not need to be executed, the monitoring module uses the communication protocol of the first functional part to receive and forward the communication information of the first functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device; if the second functional part needs to be executed, the monitoring module controls the smart device to execute the second functional part and realizes the transmission of the communication information of the second functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device through a preset signal dictionary table.

[0019] This method is used to effectively manage intelligent devices and FSU units and realize new monitoring functions.

[0020] Further, when the intelligent device is a power supply device, the first functional part of the intelligent device is a remote signaling, remote measurement, remote control, and remote adjustment monitoring function;

[0021] The second functional part of the smart device is the function of periodically and automatically checking the capacity and shaving the peak and filling the valley of electricity charges.

[0022] Furthermore, when periodic automatic capacity checking is performed, when the set capacity checking cycle comes, the monitoring module monitors the current charging voltage or charging current of the battery pack through the switching power supply communication protocol to see whether it meets the capacity checking threshold requirement, and chooses to remotely adjust the output voltage of the switching power supply rectifier module at 0:00 in the middle of the night to realize automatic battery capacity checking;

[0023] The monitoring module automatically records the start time and end time of the core capacity, calculates the overall backup time of the base station battery, and immediately remotely adjusts the output voltage of the switching power rectifier module to restore the normal setting after the core capacity is terminated, starts charging the battery pack from the core capacity termination voltage, calculates the charging capacity of the battery pack, compares the voltage-capacity curve of the battery pack, calculates the actual capacity SOC of the base station battery pack and evaluates the health SOH of the battery pack;

[0024] The monitoring module connects the relevant information of the battery capacity verification process to the FSU unit in the form of a signal dictionary table of the battery combiner and uploads it to the remote dynamic environment monitoring platform;

[0025] During the non-capacity period, the monitoring module must ensure that the FSU unit monitors the switching power supply normally. When the battery capacity needs to be remotely adjusted, the communication connection between the FSU unit and the switching power supply is temporarily disconnected. Normally, the real-time operating data and status of the switching power supply are monitored.

[0026] The monitoring module sets the time period and termination voltage of regular automatic capacity verification to meet the capacity verification requirements, and the operation is simple. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

For example, it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection, or it can be the internal connection between two components. It can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0031] The present invention discloses a remote monitoring system for intelligent devices based on device communication interface and protocol, which is connected to FSU and remote monitoring platform to realize newly added monitoring functions. The remote monitoring system for intelligent devices based on device communication interface and protocol includes a monitoring module, which is connected in series between the intelligent device and the FSU unit. The monitoring module has a communication protocol for parsing the first functional part of the intelligent device to realize the reception and forwarding of the communication information of the first functional part between the FSU unit and the intelligent device;

[0032] The monitoring module also has the function of controlling the intelligent device to execute the second functional part as needed, so as to realize the control of the intelligent device to execute the second functional part and realize the transmission of the communication information of the second functional part between the FSU unit and the intelligent device through the preset signal dictionary table;

[0033] The communication protocol of the first functional part is a communication protocol that can directly communicate between the FSU unit and the intelligent device;

[0034] The signal dictionary table of the second functional part is a newly added setting in the monitoring module, which cannot be used for the communication protocol between the FSU unit and the intelligent device to communicate directly;

[0035] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent device is one of an antenna device, a radio frequency device, a power supply device, an environmental monitoring device, and a fault detection device. The first functional part is the monitoring functions of remote signaling (such as monitoring operating status, switch status, etc.), telemetry (measuring and transmitting actual physical quantities, such as temperature, voltage, current, etc.), remote control (such as controlling start and stop, etc.), and remote adjustment (adjusting and setting operating parameters, such as frequency, voltage, current, etc.) performed by the FSU control intelligent device, and the second functional part is specifically: the antenna device increases the detection frequency range, increases the signal processing function, or adds a new encryption function, etc.; the radio frequency device increases the frequency range, increases the signal processing function, or reduces the power consumption function, etc.; the environmental monitoring device increases the monitoring parameters or increases the data processing function, etc.; the fault detection device increases new types of fault detection, data analysis functions, or adds new security and privacy protection functions, etc.

[0036] Preferably, Figure 1 As shown, when the smart device is a power supply device (such as a base station switching power supply device), the first function of the smart device is remote signaling, remote measurement, remote control, and remote adjustment monitoring functions, and the second function of the smart device is regular automatic capacity verification and electricity peak-shaving and valley-filling functions. It satisfies the monitoring of power supply equipment and realizes regular automatic capacity verification of batteries and electricity peak-shaving and valley-filling.

[0037] Taking the switching power supply equipment of the communication network base station as an example, on the basis of the existing centralized monitoring function of the real-time operation data and alarm of the switching power supply, a new monitoring module is added between the FSU unit and the RS485 interface of the switching power supply, and the monitoring function of the base station battery is realized through the communication interface and protocol of the switching power supply. The new signal dictionary table is used to realize the regular automatic capacity verification of the battery and the peak shaving and valley filling of the electricity fee. Specifically:

[0038] On the basis of the existing simple direct connection between the northbound RS485 interface of the switching power supply and the FSU, a new monitoring module is connected in series to realize the new base station battery regular automatic capacity verification and electricity charge peak-shaving and valley-filling functions. The southbound RS485 interface of the monitoring module is connected to the switching power supply, and two RS485 interfaces are used in the north: the first northbound interface uses the communication protocol of the switching power supply to access the FSU unit, which is used to completely restore the existing remote signaling, telemetry, remote control, and remote adjustment monitoring functions of the switching power supply for implementing operation data and alarms (that is, maintaining the original monitoring function of the FSU unit on the switching power supply), and the second northbound interface uses a new communication protocol, using the signal dictionary table of the battery capacity verification and peak-shaving and valley-filling equipment, or the signal dictionary table of other existing communication equipment that includes battery capacity verification and peak-shaving and valley-filling functions, to access the FSU unit and the remote monitoring platform.

[0039] Northbound communication refers to the communication direction of data transmission from the bottom-level IoT devices (such as sensors, terminal devices) to the upper-level system. Southbound communication refers to the communication direction of transmitting commands, control signals and configurations from the upper-level system (such as cloud servers) to the bottom-level IoT devices. Both the southbound interface and the northbound interface use the RS485 interface.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the remote monitoring system for intelligent devices based on the device communication interface and protocol also includes a remote dynamic environment monitoring platform, which is electrically connected to the FSU unit. The remote dynamic environment monitoring platform and the FSU unit can use a wireless communication module or a wired connection to achieve communication. The wireless connection module can use communication technologies such as 4G and 5G networks, and the wired connection can use optical fiber and other equipment. Setting up a remote dynamic environment monitoring platform is conducive to remote reception or transmission of remote signals.

[0041] The specific signal dictionary table can be set as:

[0042] Create a signal code table to list all defined signal codes and their corresponding operations or states, for example:

[0043] A01: Start battery discharge to cut peak;

[0044] A02: Stop battery discharge and peak shaving;

[0045] A03: Start the battery discharge and perform capacity matching;

[0046] A04: Stop battery discharge and stop recharging;

[0047] B01: Start battery charging and perform valley filling;

[0048] B02: Stop battery charging and stop valley filling.

[0049] A detailed description of the operation instructions can also be provided, providing a detailed description of the operation instructions for each signal code, including the expected response and execution conditions. For example, signal code A01: Operation: Start battery discharge Description: Sending this signal will start the connected battery system to start discharging and perform peak shaving. Execution conditions: The battery capacity meets the discharge requirements and the time is during the peak electricity price period.

[0050] Each signal code adopts the communication protocol format and transmission mode required for the FSU to communicate with the intelligent device, including information such as data format, communication rate, data packet structure, etc. For example, the communication protocol Hull transmission mode adopted by the RS485 interface.

[0051] The present invention also provides a remote monitoring method for intelligent devices based on device communication interface and protocol for the system of the present invention, comprising the following steps:

[0052] A monitoring module is connected in series between the smart device and the FSU unit. The monitoring module has the function of parsing the communication protocol of the first functional part of the smart device to realize the reception and forwarding of the communication information of the first functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device. The monitoring module also has the function of controlling the smart device to execute the second functional part as needed to control the smart device to execute the second functional part and realize the transmission of the communication information of the second functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device through a preset signal dictionary table. The communication protocol of the first functional part is a communication protocol that can be directly communicated between the FSU unit and the smart device; the signal dictionary table of the second functional part is a newly added setting in the monitoring module, and is a communication protocol that cannot be directly communicated between the FSU unit and the smart device;

[0053] The monitoring module receives the control command and determines whether to control the smart device to execute the second functional part. If the second functional part does not need to be executed, the monitoring module uses the communication protocol of the first functional part to receive and forward the communication information of the first functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device; if the second functional part needs to be executed, the monitoring module controls the smart device to execute the second functional part and realizes the transmission of the communication information of the second functional part between the FSU unit and the smart device through a preset signal dictionary table.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the intelligent device is a power supply device, the first functional part of the intelligent device is a remote signaling, remote measurement, remote control, and remote adjustment monitoring function;

[0055] The second function of the smart device is to automatically check the capacity regularly and smooth out the peak and valley of electricity charges.

[0056] More preferably, the monitoring module has a complete clock function and can keep the clock synchronous with the FSU unit, set the time period of regular automatic capacity verification and the capacity verification termination voltage (higher than the primary power-off voltage).

[0057] When periodic automatic capacity check is performed, when the set capacity check cycle comes, the monitoring module monitors whether the charging voltage or charging current of the current battery pack meets the capacity check threshold requirement (whether the full capacity state is met) through the switching power supply communication protocol, and chooses to remotely adjust the output voltage of the switching power supply rectifier module at 0:00 in the middle of the night to realize automatic battery capacity check;

[0058] The monitoring module automatically records the core capacity start time and core capacity end time, calculates the overall backup time of the base station battery, and after the core capacity is terminated (the battery is discharged to the set core capacity termination voltage), immediately remotely adjusts the output voltage of the switching power supply rectifier module to restore the normal setting, and starts charging the battery pack from the core capacity termination voltage (usually the switching power supply sets the charging current limit of 0.1C), calculates the charging capacity of the battery pack, compares the voltage-capacity curve of the battery pack, calculates the actual capacity SOC of the base station battery pack and evaluates the health SOH of the battery pack.

[0059] The monitoring module connects the relevant information of the battery capacity verification process to the FSU unit in the form of a signal dictionary table of the battery combiner and uploads it to the remote dynamic environment monitoring platform.

[0060] During the non-capacity period, the monitoring module must ensure that the FSU unit monitors the switching power supply normally. When the battery capacity needs to be remotely adjusted, the communication connection between the FSU unit and the switching power supply is temporarily disconnected. Normally, the real-time operating data and status of the switching power supply are monitored.
