[0067] 1、In this embodiment, the product characteristics of the wireless access unit include:
[0068] As shown in Figure 2 Wireless communication technology has excellent technical characteristics such as low latency, high reliability, high synchronization accuracy, support for multiple concurrency, high information security, and low power consumption. Air interface access layer technology is the core of the wireless communication system. According to the role of the wireless communication access layer, wireless communication devices are divided into G (Grant) nodes and T (Terminal) nodes. Each G node can manage a certain number of T nodes. The G node and the T nodes connected thereto jointly constitute a communication domain. Further, in order to meet the communication needs in different scenarios, wireless communication technology provides two wireless communication interfaces: SLB (SparkLink Basic) and SLE (SparkLink Low Energy).
[0069] The technical content of SLB (SparkLink Basic, wireless communication basic access technology) is specified in YD / T 4007-2022. SLB uses orthogonal multicarrier (OFDM) waveform, supports very low latency wireless frame, and the air interface one-way data transmission delay is less than 20.833us (the lowest latency in the industry), single carrier supports 20MHz bandwidth, maximum supports 16 carriers 320MHz bandwidth, highest rate supports channel coding with coding rate 0.92, 1024QAM modulation and 8 stream parallel transmission, and the deepest coverage supports channel coding with coding rate 1 / 8 and QPSK modulation. SLB supports data link layer data transparent transmission mode, greatly reduces system overhead and improves system multi-node access capacity. SLB supports optimized access resource configuration and supports multi-user low latency access system. SLB is mainly used to carry business scenarios represented by vehicle-mounted active noise reduction, wireless screen projection, industrial mechanical motion control, etc., and its significant features are low latency, high reliability, precise synchronization and high concurrency, etc.

Compared with existing low-power wireless short-range technology, SLE is mainly used to carry business scenarios with low power requirements including earphone audio transmission, wireless battery management system, industrial data acquisition, etc.

The wireless communication upper layer is composed of a basic service layer and a basic application layer. The basic service layer provides device discovery, service management, connection management, QoS management, measurement management, data transmission and adaptation, information security, multi-domain management and coordination, and 5G integration services for upper layer service data, for supporting the connection interaction requirements of the entire service period from service triggering to service ending of the upper layer specific service. At the same time, the basic service layer can also interact with the bottom layer across layers and provide selection and switching of the bottom layer transmission path according to the service requirements and the transmission situation. The basic application layer is used to implement various application functions. The basic application layer can define a general application service framework including a general communication framework and a general audio / video framework for common business demands, for calling by specific applications to realize modular design. The basic application layer can also define a unified configuration document for specific applications to realize end-to-end interaction of the service and ensure interconnection and interoperation of different manufacturers.
