Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of anti-theft tracking of electric bicycles, and in particular to an anti-theft tracking method for electric bicycles, a storage medium, and an electric bicycle. Background Art

[0002] As an environmentally friendly and convenient means of transportation, electric bicycles (Ebike) have been widely used and developed in recent years. With the advancement of intelligent technology, electric bicycles not only have basic driving functions, but also gradually incorporate more intelligent elements, such as screen interaction, remote monitoring and anti-theft alarm functions. These functions have greatly improved user experience and safety, making electric bicycles one of the important choices for modern urban travel.

[0003] In existing electric bicycle technology, in order to achieve vehicle safety monitoring and anti-theft protection, multiple sensors and communication modules are usually integrated. For example, the vehicle's location information is obtained in real time through the GPS module, and the information is uploaded to the cloud server using the 4G module. Users can check the vehicle status at any time through smartphone applications. In addition, some high-end models are also equipped with vibration alarm sensors. When the vehicle is subjected to abnormal vibration, it can trigger an alarm in time and send the location information to the user. However, the realization of these functions depends on a stable power supply and a good communication environment.

[0004] Although existing electric bicycles already have certain anti-theft and monitoring functions, there are still some shortcomings in actual use. In particular, when the battery is low or the communication signal is poor, the anti-theft alarm function of the vehicle may fail, resulting in an increased risk of vehicle loss.

[0005] Therefore, how to ensure that the vehicle's positioning and alarm functions remain reliable when the battery is low or the communication signal is poor is an urgent problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the existing technical problems, the present application provides an anti-theft tracking method for an electric bicycle, which adopts the following technical solutions: An anti-theft tracking method for an electric bicycle comprises the following steps: Detecting basic vehicle information of the assisted subject, determining whether the assisted subject is equipped with a network module, the assisted subject is a first electric bicycle of a target user, and the basic vehicle information includes power information and body information; When the assisted subject is equipped with the network module, controlling the assisted subject to switch to a network transmission mode, wherein the network transmission mode is that the assisted subject transmits the basic vehicle information to a server through a network, and the server is used to transmit the basic vehicle information to a first user terminal of the target user; Acquiring status information of the network module, determining whether the network module is connected to the network; When the network module is connected to the network, controlling the transmission interval of the location information of the assisted subject according to the basic vehicle information; When the network module is not connected to the network, and the non-connected state is maintained for more than a first preset time, controlling the assisted subject to switch to a low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, wherein the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode is that the assisted subject transmits the basic vehicle information to the auxiliary subject through the low-power Bluetooth module, and the auxiliary subject transmits the basic vehicle information to the server, and the auxiliary subject is a second user terminal and / or a second electric bicycle compatible with the information transmission of the assisted subject.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is detected that the assisted subject is equipped with a network module and is in a networked state, the location information transmission interval can be flexibly adjusted according to the basic information of the vehicle, effectively reducing energy consumption and extending battery life. When the network module cannot be connected to the network normally due to various reasons and fails to recover within a certain period of time, the system will automatically switch to low-power Bluetooth transmission mode and use surrounding compatible devices or user terminals to forward data, ensuring that even in the case of poor network, the basic information of the vehicle and vibration alarm information can be uploaded to the server in time, thereby improving the effectiveness and reliability of anti-theft tracking.

[0008] Optionally, the method further includes the following steps: when the assisted subject is not equipped with the network module, controlling the assisted subject to switch to the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the assisted subject is not equipped with a network module, it can switch to the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode in time, ensuring that the basic vehicle information reporting function can be realized even in low-cost models. This not only improves the applicability and flexibility of the system, but also effectively reduces the risk of anti-theft tracking failure due to the lack of a network module. Specifically, this solution can use the existing low-power Bluetooth technology without adding additional hardware costs, and complete the transmission of vehicle information through other compatible vehicles or user terminals, thereby ensuring reliability and safety in a variety of scenarios.

[0010] Optionally, controlling the position information reporting period of the assisted subject based on the basic information of the vehicle includes the steps of: determining whether the power information is less than a preset power value; when the power value of the power information is less than a preset power value, controlling the assisted subject to extend the position information transmission interval.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the use time of the positioning function of electric vehicles in low-battery states can be effectively extended. Specifically: judging whether the power information is less than the preset power value, this step ensures that the system can take timely measures when the power is low to prevent the positioning function from failing due to insufficient power. When the power value of the power information is less than the preset power value, the assisted subject is controlled to extend the interval time for location information transmission. This step significantly reduces the power consumption of the 4G module and the GPS module, thereby extending the working time of the entire positioning function and improving the anti-theft tracking performance of the vehicle in a low-battery state.

[0012] Optionally, when the network module is in a non-networked state and maintains the non-networked state for more than a first preset time, the assisted subject is controlled to switch to a low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, including the steps of: controlling the network module to periodically turn on at intervals of a second preset time, and sending the basic information of the vehicle to the server.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the power consumption caused by long-term attempts to connect to the server can be effectively reduced, while ensuring that the basic information of the vehicle is reported in time during possible signal recovery, thereby improving the reliability and energy efficiency of the anti-theft tracking system.

[0014] Optionally, the steps are also included: continuously recording the vibration occurrence frequency information, the corresponding vibration occurrence time information, and the corresponding vibration occurrence location information of the assisted subject, integrating the vibration occurrence frequency information, the corresponding vibration occurrence time information, and the corresponding vibration occurrence location information and transferring them as vibration alarm information of the vehicle basic information; determining whether the vehicle basic information includes the vibration alarm information; when the vehicle basic information includes the vibration alarm information, skipping the interval limit of the second preset time, turning on the network module, and sending the vehicle basic information to the server.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the vehicle is not connected to the Internet and there is vibration alarm information, the information can be uploaded to the server in time to ensure that the owner can quickly learn of the abnormal situation. At the same time, this method effectively reduces the problem of increased power consumption caused by multiple invalid attempts to connect to the network, and improves the overall energy efficiency and stability of the system. Specifically: continuously recording vibration-related data and generating vibration alarm information can leave evidence when the vehicle encounters illegal movement or other external interference, which is helpful for subsequent analysis and processing; judging whether the basic information of the vehicle contains vibration alarm information, it ensures that the network module is restarted only when necessary to avoid unnecessary waste of resources; when it is necessary to send a data packet containing a vibration alarm, the predetermined time interval limit can be immediately skipped to quickly respond to emergencies, improving safety and user experience.

[0016] Optionally, turning on the network module and sending the basic information of the vehicle to the server side includes the steps of: judging the access status of the network module to the server side, and turning off the network module when the number of times the server side is not reached exceeds a preset number; and controlling the low-power Bluetooth module to transmit the basic information of the vehicle to the second user side and / or the second electric bicycle.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of high power consumption caused by the network module being unable to reach the server for a long time can be effectively solved. Specifically: when the number of times the network module fails to successfully reach the server exceeds the preset number, the system will automatically shut down the network module, thereby avoiding the problem of excessive radio frequency power consumption of the 4G module during long-term network search and network stationing; after shutting down the network module, the system will switch to low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, and use the low-power Bluetooth module to transmit the basic information of the vehicle to the second user terminal or the second electric bicycle with mobile network connection capability, and then these devices will upload the information to the server on behalf of the user. This not only reduces energy consumption, but also ensures that even in the case of poor network, the location of the vehicle and other important information can still be delivered to the user in a timely manner, improving the reliability and effectiveness of the anti-theft tracking system.

[0018] Optionally, the method further includes the step of: when the basic vehicle information does not include the vibration alarm information, maintaining the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode of the assisted subject.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the basic information of the vehicle does not include vibration alarm information, maintaining the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode of the assisted subject can effectively reduce energy consumption and extend the use time of the positioning function, while ensuring a low data transmission frequency in the absence of important alarm information, thereby further optimizing the energy efficiency of the system.

[0020] Optionally, when the network module is in a networked state, the interval time for transmitting the location information of the assisted subject is controlled according to the basic information of the vehicle, and the step also includes: determining whether the assisted subject is in a locked state; when the assisted subject is in a locked state, controlling the interval time for transmitting the location information of the assisted subject in the locked state.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when the network module is in the connected state, the interval time of location information transmission can be further optimized according to the locked state of the assisted subject. Specifically, in the locked state, the system will automatically adjust the time interval of location information transmission, thereby effectively reducing the frequency of unnecessary data transmission and saving energy. This not only helps to extend battery life, but also ensures that the anti-theft tracking function can still be maintained when the power is limited. At the same time, this strategy improves the flexibility and adaptability of the system, so that the best energy-saving effect can be achieved in different usage scenarios.

[0022] In a second aspect, the present application provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the above-mentioned anti-theft tracking method for an electric bicycle is implemented.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solutions, efficient energy consumption management of electric bicycles in the process of anti-theft tracking is achieved. Specifically: when the network module of the assisted subject is in a non-networked state and maintains this state for more than a preset time, it can automatically switch to the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, and use other compatible vehicles or mobile phones of user apps to forward information, effectively solving the positioning and alarm problems in poor network signals or no network environment. When the power is lower than the set threshold, the location information reporting cycle is extended, and the high power consumption caused by the frequent activation of 4G and GPS is reduced, thereby extending the battery life. The network module regularly attempts to reconnect to the server at fixed time intervals, and prioritizes uploading relevant data when a vibration event is detected, ensuring that important safety information is delivered to the user in a timely manner, improving the response speed and security of the system. If multiple retries still fail to successfully reach the server, the network module is turned off and key information continues to be reported through the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, further reducing the system power consumption and ensuring long-term monitoring needs.

[0024] In the third aspect, the present application provides an electric bicycle, comprising: an information transmission module, including a network module and a low-power Bluetooth module; a detection module, capable of detecting basic vehicle information of an assisted subject, and capable of obtaining status information of the network module; a judgment module, capable of judging whether the assisted subject is equipped with the network module, and judging whether the network module is connected to the network; a control module, capable of controlling the assisted subject to switch to a network transmission mode, and controlling the interval time for transmitting the location information of the assisted subject.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solutions, electric bicycles can achieve intelligent anti-theft tracking. First, the detection module can comprehensively detect the basic information of the vehicle, including power information and body information, to ensure that the vehicle status can be accurately obtained under various circumstances. Secondly, the judgment module can intelligently judge whether the assisted subject is equipped with a network module and its networking status, providing a basis for subsequent operations. When the assisted subject is equipped with a network module and is in a networked state, the control module can flexibly adjust the location information transmission interval according to the basic information of the vehicle, effectively reduce energy consumption, and extend battery life. In addition, when the network module is in a non-networked state and maintains this state for more than a first preset time, the control module can also switch to a low-power Bluetooth transmission mode to further save energy and ensure the transmission of key information. In summary, this technical solution not only improves the safety and reliability of electric bicycles, but also significantly improves their energy efficiency.

[0026] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. When the power battery is lower than the threshold, the power consumption of the 4G module and GPS module is significantly reduced, and the usage time of the positioning function is extended by extending the reporting cycle of the location information in the locked state and reducing the reporting frequency of the vibration alarm; 2. When the network module is not connected to the network for a preset time, the central control system automatically switches to low-power Bluetooth transmission mode and uploads the basic information of the vehicle to the server through other compatible vehicles or user mobile phones, avoiding the high power consumption problem caused by the 4G module searching for the network for a long time; 3. When the system detects that the link of the 4G module cannot reach the server for a long time, it shuts down the 4G and GPS links and switches to low-power Bluetooth transmission, ensuring the continuity and reliability of data reporting and improving the stability and anti-interference ability of the overall system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The terms used in the following embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to be used as limitations to the present application. As used in the specification and appended claims of the present application, the singular expressions "one", "a kind of", "said", "above", "the" and "this" are intended to also include plural expressions, unless there is a clear indication to the contrary in the context. It should also be understood that the term "and / or" used in the present application refers to any or all possible combinations comprising one or more listed items.

[0029] In the following, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as suggesting or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features, and in the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0030] Existing electric bicycles have the problem of anti-theft tracking failure when parked and on standby due to low battery or poor signal quality. For this reason, the present application mainly adopts the following anti-theft tracking method for electric bicycles, which significantly reduces the power consumption of the 4G module and the GPS module by dynamically adjusting the interval time for location information transmission, switching to low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, etc., and extends the use time of the positioning function, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the reliability of anti-theft tracking of electric vehicles. The present application is further described in detail below.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the anti-theft tracking method provided by this application includes but is not limited to the following steps: S1: Detect the basic vehicle information of the assisted subject and determine whether the assisted subject is equipped with a network module; S21: When the assisted subject is equipped with a network module, the assisted subject is controlled to switch to a network transmission mode; S3: Obtain the status information of the network module and determine whether the network module is connected to the network; S31: When the network module is in a networking state, the transmission interval of the position information of the assisted subject is controlled according to the basic information of the vehicle.

[0032] It should be noted that, for step S1, the assisted subject is the first electric bicycle that needs to be protected from theft. For example, when an electric bicycle is suspected of being stolen, it can implement the anti-theft tracking method of the present application, and this electric bicycle is the assisted subject. The basic information of the vehicle includes the power information and body information of the electric bicycle. The power information is the remaining power of the power supply, and further includes the remaining mileage that the electric bicycle can travel, which is used as a basis for judging whether the vehicle needs to turn on the low-power mode. The body information is the model of the electric bicycle, vehicle identification features (such as frame number, motor number, etc.), and communication equipment features of the vehicle (for example, the vehicle is equipped with a 4G network module, a low-power Bluetooth module, etc.), which is used as a basis for judging which communication mode the vehicle is running.

[0033] It is understandable that detecting the power information of the assisted subject includes the collection, transmission and processing of power information. Sensors for collecting riding data are set on the electric bicycle, and these sensors may include current sensors, voltage sensors and temperature sensors. These sensors can monitor the current, voltage and temperature of the battery in real time, thereby indirectly or directly reflecting the power status of the battery. After collecting the power information, the sensor will send this information to the IoT device on the electric bicycle. The communication method between the sensor and the IoT device can be through the controller area network bus (Controller Area Network, CAN), which is a communication protocol widely used in vehicles, with the characteristics of high speed, reliability and strong anti-interference ability. The electric bicycle can determine whether it is equipped with a network communication module by detecting the hardware circuit. For example, the level state of the communication module interface can be detected, or the existence of the module can be identified by a specific hardware signal.

[0034] Among them, the current sensor is used to monitor the discharge current of the battery in real time, with a typical working range of 0-10A and an accuracy of ±1%. Hall effect current sensors can be used, which are small in size and fast in response, and are suitable for embedding in the battery management system of electric bicycles. The voltage sensor is used to measure the output voltage of the battery, with an operating range of 0-72V and an accuracy of ±0.5%. Commonly used voltage sensors include voltage divider resistor type and integrated circuit type, the latter of which has higher integration and stronger anti-interference ability. The temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature of the battery, commonly using thermistors or NTC thermistors, with an operating range of -40℃ to +85℃ and an accuracy of ±1°C. The temperature sensor helps prevent the battery from overheating and prolongs its service life.

[0035] It should be noted that, for step S21, the mode switching is achieved by switching different communication interfaces through the processor of the electric bicycle. For example, when the assisted body is controlled to switch to the network transmission mode, the processor selects the network interface to transmit information.

[0036] It is understandable that when the electric bicycle is confirmed to be equipped with a network module, the processor will control the electric bicycle to switch to the network transmission mode. This step is achieved by selecting a suitable network interface, such as a 4G or 5G network interface. In the network transmission mode, the electric bicycle can directly transmit basic vehicle information to the server through the Internet. It should be noted that, for step S3, the processor of the electric bicycle detects whether there is an available network connection through the built-in network interface, usually by detecting the status of the network interface and attempting to establish a connection with the server. If the network module has successfully connected to the server, proceed to the next step.

[0037] It should be noted that, for step S31, if the processor of the electric bicycle detects that the vehicle has received information from the server (i.e., established a connection with the server), it is determined that the network module is in a networked state. When the electric bicycle is in a networked state, the time interval for the vehicle to transmit information to the server is controlled according to the power information. For example, when the power is low, the time interval is increased, and when the power is high, the original time interval is maintained.

[0038] It is understandable that electric bicycles can flexibly adjust the interval time for transmitting location information according to the basic information of the vehicle, which can effectively reduce energy consumption and extend battery life.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 As shown, step S3 includes but is not limited to the following steps: S31: When the network module is in a networked state, the transmission interval of the position information of the assisted subject is controlled according to the basic information of the vehicle; S311: Determine whether the power information is less than a preset power value; S312: When the power value of the power information is less than the preset power value, the assisted subject is controlled to extend the interval time for transmitting the position information.

[0040] It should be noted that for step S311 and step S312, the electric bicycle has a pre-set power threshold in the locked state when it leaves the factory. This power threshold allows the network module of the electric bicycle to have a good battery life when it is turned on. This power threshold is the preset power value. When the power of the electric bicycle is less than the preset power value, the processor will extend the time interval for transmitting information to improve the battery life of the vehicle in the locked state.

[0041] It is understandable that the battery power status is monitored in real time through the combination of current sensors and voltage sensors. When the power is lower than the preset value (such as 10%), the processor will trigger the corresponding power saving mode to extend the time interval for location information transmission. For example, the location information originally transmitted once a minute is changed to once every 5 minutes or even longer. In addition to extending the transmission interval, some unnecessary sensors and functional modules can also be turned off to further reduce energy consumption. For example, temporarily stop sampling the temperature and humidity sensor to reduce the CPU computing load.

[0042] By dynamically adjusting the interval between location information transmissions, the battery life of the electric bicycle is effectively extended. Especially when the battery is low, this method ensures that the vehicle still has enough power to transmit key information when it is most needed, improving the reliability and practicality of the system.

[0043] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, step S3 also includes but is not limited to the following steps: S32: when the network module is in a non-networked state and maintains the non-networked state for more than a first preset time, controlling the assisted subject to switch to a low-power Bluetooth transmission mode; S33: Control the network module to periodically start at a second preset time interval to send basic vehicle information to the server; S34: continuously recording the vibration occurrence frequency information of the assisted subject, the corresponding vibration occurrence time information, and the corresponding vibration occurrence location information, integrating the above information and transferring it into the vibration alarm information of the basic information of the vehicle; S35: Determine whether the basic vehicle information includes vibration alarm information; S36: when the basic vehicle information includes vibration alarm information, skip the interval limit of the second preset time, start the network module, and send the basic vehicle information to the server; S37: Determine the access status of the network module to the server, and when the number of times the network module fails to reach the server exceeds a preset number, shut down the network module; S38: Control the low-power Bluetooth to transmit basic vehicle information to the second user terminal and / or the second electric bicycle.

[0044] It should be noted that, for step S32, when the network module is not connected to the Internet, and this state lasts for more than a certain time period set in advance, which we call the first preset time, the system will take a series of operations to control the electric bicycle to change its data transmission mode. Specifically, this change is to switch it from the relatively high power consumption transmission mode (such as 4G / 5G wireless communication technology) that may be currently in use to the low power Bluetooth (BLE, Bluetooth Low Energy) transmission mode.

[0045] Understandably, the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode is known for its low energy consumption and is very suitable for use in situations where continuous high-speed data transmission or long-term networking is not required. By switching to this mode, the battery life of the electric bicycle can be significantly extended, its energy efficiency can be improved, and the problem of the electric bicycle being unable to upload location information in time due to insufficient power due to continuous high-speed information transmission after being stolen can be avoided.

[0046] It should be noted that for step S33, after turning on the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, the processor will also control the network module to periodically turn on at intervals of a second preset time to send basic vehicle information to the server, including the vehicle's location information. In this way, the vehicle's location information can be sent in a timely manner while ensuring the battery life of the electric bicycle, thereby speeding up the recovery of stolen electric bicycles.

[0047] It should be noted that for step S34, the electric bicycle will also continuously record the vibration alarm information of the vehicle through the built-in sensor, including the number of vibrations, the corresponding events and the location of occurrence. This type of sensor is turned on after the electric bicycle is locked. Since this type of sensor itself is a low-energy consumption component, it has little effect on the vehicle's endurance and can also record suspicious situations occurring in the vehicle in a timely manner.

[0048] It is understandable that the sensor used to detect the motion state of the vehicle can accurately capture subtle vibration events and generate vibration alarm information in a timely manner.

[0049] It should be noted that, for steps S35 and S36, the vibration alarm information of the vehicle is not limited by the second preset time interval, so as to ensure that the information can be transmitted in time and avoid missing the best time to retrieve the vehicle.

[0050] It should be noted that for steps S37 and S38, if the periodically turned on network module fails to reach the server for multiple times and exceeds the preset number of times, the processor will turn off the network module and will not try to turn on the network module for at least a period of time, maintaining the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, effectively reducing energy consumption.

[0051] It is understandable that if the vehicle's vibration occurs a certain number of times, the network module will try to open again to transmit the vibration alarm information to the server through the 4G network.

[0052] By periodically opening the network module and processing vibration alarm information in real time, the energy consumption and timeliness of information transmission are effectively balanced. Even if there is no network connection for a long time, the system can regularly check the network status and quickly restore communication when necessary, ensuring the continuity and reliability of the system. In particular, the processing of vibration alarm information greatly improves the sensitivity and response speed of the system, which is of great significance for preventing theft.

[0053] Reference Figure 5 As shown, the anti-theft tracking method provided by this application also includes but is not limited to the following steps: S1: Detect the basic vehicle information of the assisted subject and determine whether the assisted subject is equipped with a network module; S22: When the assisted main body is not equipped with a network module, control the assisted main body to switch to a low-power Bluetooth transmission mode.

[0054] It should be noted that, for step S22, when the electric bicycle detects that the vehicle is not equipped with a network module, it will control the electric bicycle to directly turn on or switch to the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode. Through this technical solution, some electric bicycles without a network module can be applied to the anti-theft tracking method of this application, ensuring that even in low-cost models, the basic vehicle information reporting function can be achieved.

[0055] It is understandable that when the electric bicycle enters the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode, the processor will package the collected power information, body information and other relevant data into one or more messages and send them to the second user terminal or second electric bicycle nearby through the low-power Bluetooth module. These receiving devices are also equipped with low-power Bluetooth modules, which can seamlessly parse and forward the received data and finally transmit them to the server.

[0056] The introduction of low-power Bluetooth modules solves the problem of some electric bicycles lacking network modules, allowing them to still participate in the anti-theft tracking system. This solution not only reduces costs, but also improves the flexibility and universality of the system. Whether in the city center or in remote areas, as long as there is a compatible device nearby, effective information transmission can be achieved, greatly improving the recovery rate of lost vehicles.

[0057] Reference Figure 6 As shown, step S3 also includes but is not limited to the following steps: S31: When the network module is in a networked state, the transmission interval of the position information of the assisted subject is controlled according to the basic information of the vehicle; S313: Determine whether the assisted subject is in a locked state; S314: When the assisted subject is in a locked state, controlling the transmission interval of the position information of the assisted subject in the locked state.

[0058] It should be noted that, for step S313 and step S314, when the network module of the electric bicycle is in a networked state, the location information transmission time interval can be further optimized according to the locked state of the electric bicycle to extend the battery life.

[0059] It is understandable that the lock switch status of the electric bicycle is detected to determine whether it is in the locked state. Common lock switches are mechanical and electronic. Electronic lock switches are easier to integrate with the system to achieve automatic management. When the vehicle is in the locked state, the processor will extend the time interval for transmitting the location information from the original several minutes to tens of minutes or even longer. This can not only greatly save battery energy, but also avoid additional energy consumption caused by frequent network connections.

[0060] By adjusting the interval time for transmitting location information when the vehicle is locked, the system's energy consumption management is further optimized. In daily use, especially when the vehicle is parked, this strategy can significantly extend the battery life, reduce the user's charging frequency, and improve the user experience. At the same time, this also provides strong support for the long-term monitoring of electric bicycles in actual application scenarios.

[0061] Reference Figure 7 As shown, step S35 also includes but is not limited to the following steps: S35: Determine whether the basic vehicle information includes vibration alarm information; S362: When the basic vehicle information does not include vibration alarm information, maintain the low-power Bluetooth transmission mode of the assisted subject.

[0062] It should be noted that, for step S362, when the electric bicycle does not detect the vibration alarm information, the Bluetooth transmission mode is maintained without turning on the network module, thereby further saving energy consumption.

[0063] In the technical solution of the present application, if the network module of the assisted subject is disconnected for some reason, and this offline state lasts for more than a reasonable time preset by the system, the entire system will automatically and intelligently switch to a more energy-saving Bluetooth transmission mode. In this mode, the system can use other compatible vehicles around or apps installed on the user's smartphone as information transfer stations to transmit necessary information through them. This design means that even in extreme environments with weak network signals or no network at all, the system can still maintain the basic functions of positioning and alarm to ensure that the transmission of key information is not affected.

[0064] In addition, when the system's power level drops to a preset lower threshold, in order to extend the battery life, the system will take a series of energy-saving measures. Among them, the most important one is to extend the update frequency of location information. By reducing the frequent activation of 4G network and GPS module, the system can significantly reduce energy consumption, which is especially important for devices that rely on limited battery power.

[0065] At the same time, the network module also has the function of automatic reconnection. It will periodically try to reconnect with the server at a fixed time interval. Once a vibration event is detected, such as a possible collision or abnormal movement, the system will immediately try to send data related to this event first. This ensures that safety information that is critical to users can be conveyed quickly and accurately, greatly enhancing the system's response speed and overall safety.

[0066] However, if the system still cannot successfully connect to the server after multiple attempts, in order to further reduce energy consumption and ensure the effectiveness of long-term monitoring, the system will make an intelligent decision: turn off the network module and use the more energy-efficient low-power Bluetooth transmission mode to continue reporting important information. This design not only reflects the system's careful consideration of energy consumption management, but also ensures that the system can continue to monitor and transmit information effectively even under extreme conditions.
