[0052] like Figure 1 One embodiment of the present application provides an intelligent differential base station system, the intelligent differential base station system comprising:

[0053] The first differential module includes a 4G DTU transparent transmission module and a 4G antenna. The 4G DTU transparent transmission module is connected to the differential server through the 4G antenna and is used to receive the first differential correction data sent by the differential server.

[0054] Among them, 4G DTU is a terminal device widely used for data transmission in the industrial Internet of Things. The original data of various sensor serial ports are transmitted to DTU via RS485 / 232 and then transferred to the 4G network. It has two-way transparent transmission and supports Modbus RTU to TCP / MQTT.

[0055] The second differential module includes an RTK positioning module and a GNSS antenna. The RTK positioning module obtains second differential correction data through the GNSS antenna.

[0056] Among them, the carrier phase difference technology (Real-time kinematic, RTK) is developed on the basis of GPS measurement technology and continuously improved and perfected. RTK technology can obtain real-time positioning accuracy of centimeter level in the field. By installing a mobile base station on a reference point with known position, the deviation of the positioning signal is measured, and the deviation is sent to the mobile station in real time, so that the mobile station obtains more accurate position information. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) is a global navigation satellite system, which is a radio navigation system based on artificial satellites, providing all-weather, high-precision position, speed and time information for various types of carriers on land, sea, air and space.

[0057] The signal transmission module is in communication connection with the movable device.

[0058] The main controller is in communication connection with the first difference module, the second difference module and the signal transmission module, and is configured to select the first difference correction data or the second difference correction data as the optimal difference correction data according to a preset decision scheme, and control the signal transmission module to send the optimal difference correction data to the movable device.

[0059] Here, the specific type of the main controller is not limited.

[0060] The present application comprises a first difference module and a second difference module. On the one hand, the first difference correction data of 4G can be obtained through the 4G DTU transparent transmission module and the 4G antenna. On the other hand, the second difference correction data of RTK can be obtained through the RTK positioning module and the GNSS antenna. Then, the main controller is set to select the first difference correction data or the second difference correction data as the optimal difference correction data according to a preset decision scheme, and control the signal transmission module to send the optimal difference correction data to the movable device. Through the above scheme, the system has the functions of multi-source difference correction data input and judgment / decision, and autonomous switching of difference correction data source according to the decision result, which can improve the robustness of the system and meet the needs of more use scenarios.

[0061] It is worth mentioning that the system further comprises a power module, which is specifically as follows:

[0062] The power module comprises a lithium battery pack, a power voltage monitoring unit and a TypeC fast charging unit. The lithium battery pack provides power supply for the main controller and other components through the power voltage monitoring unit. The main controller obtains the voltage information of the lithium battery pack through the power voltage monitoring unit. The TypeC fast charging unit raises the 5V input to a suitable voltage to charge the lithium battery pack.

[0063] In some embodiments, according to a preset decision scheme, the first differential correction data or the second differential correction data is selected as optimal differential correction data, and the signal transmission module is controlled to send the optimal differential correction data to the mobile device, comprising:

[0064] The main controller is configured to acquire the signal strength RSSI of the 4G DTU transparent module, and count the frame number C of the first differential correction data of the 4G DTU transparent module received within a threshold time T 4G , and calculate the update frequency f 4G of the first differential correction data of the differential server as f 4G = (C 4G / T) Hz according to the threshold time T and the frame number C

[0065] The main controller is configured to acquire the frame number C of the second differential correction data of the RTK positioning module according to the threshold time T RTK , and calculate the update frequency f RTK of the second differential correction data of the RTK positioning module as f RTK = (C RTK / T) Hz according to the threshold time T and the frame number C

[0066] The main controller is further configured to, when the signal strength RSSI> the first threshold value, and f 4G ≥ the second threshold value, take the first differential correction data as the optimal differential correction data, and control the signal transmission module to send the optimal differential correction data to the mobile device; when the signal strength RSSI≤ the first threshold value, or f 4G < the second threshold value, and the update frequency f RTK ≥ the third threshold value, take the second differential correction data as the optimal differential correction data, and control the signal transmission module to send the optimal differential correction data to the mobile device; when the signal strength RSSI≤ the first threshold value, or f 4G < the second threshold value, and the update frequency f RTK < the third threshold value, take the first differential correction data as the optimal differential correction data, and control the signal transmission module to send the optimal differential correction data to the mobile device.

[0067] In the embodiment, the first threshold value is set as -113 dBm, the second threshold value is set as 1 Hz, and the third threshold value is set as 1 Hz, which are all common parameters in the field.

[0068] If the signal strength RSSI> the first threshold value, and f 4G ≥ the second threshold value, the first differential correction data is taken as the preferred differential correction data for transmission, which is named as the optimal differential correction data here;

[0069] If the signal strength RSSI≤ the first threshold value, or f4G < the second threshold value, it means that the first differential correction data of the 4G DTU transparent module is abnormal, and when the update frequency f RTK ≥ the third threshold value, the second differential correction data is preferred, and the first differential correction data provided by the 4G DTU transparent module is not received for fault isolation;

[0070] When the signal strength RSSI ≤ the first threshold value, or f 4G < the second threshold value, and the update frequency f RTK ≥ the third threshold value, it is determined that the corresponding second differential correction data of the RTK positioning module is abnormal, and the first differential correction data of the 4G DTU transparent module is still preferred, because at this time, although the first differential correction data has errors, the effectiveness of the first differential correction data is still higher than that of the second differential correction data, so the first differential correction data is selected as the optimal differential correction data.

[0092] The main controller is used to high When the SNR is 0, the control data interface forwards the optimal differential correction data to the measurement and control link in a whole packet at the corresponding update frequency, and the measurement and control link sends it to the mobile device; high is the preset threshold;

[0093] The main controller is also used to adjust the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) low ≤SNR <SNR high When the control data interface divides the optimal differential correction data into several small packets N at the corresponding update frequency, and transmits them at the forwarding interval t interval = 1 / N forwards the optimal differential correction data to the measurement and control link, and the measurement and control link sends it to the mobile device; SNR low is the preset threshold;

[0094] The main controller is also used to adjust the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) <SNR low , network delay t delay ≤t th When the optimal differential correction data forwarding frequency f is set best The corresponding update frequency times, and the whole frame data is split into N small packets and sent at an interval of And control the data interface to forward frequency fbest , the sending interval time is t interval The optimal differential correction data is sent to the measurement and control link, and is sent to the movable device by the measurement and control link.
