Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of subway integrated monitoring systems, and in particular to a parallel distribution method and system for interfaces used in the transformation of integrated monitoring systems. Background Technology

[0002] In major Chinese cities, subways have been developing as a transportation infrastructure for a considerable period of time. Early-built and operational equipment and systems face challenges such as technological upgrades, increased safety requirements, improved operational efficiency, functional expansion, user experience optimization, and the expansion of urban rail transit networks. As an important component of the subway, the Integrated Monitoring System (ISCS) needs to accelerate the upgrading of its hardware and software systems in accordance with the platform's operational status in order to effectively meet the development needs of urban rail transit operations.

[0003] Current integrated monitoring systems for subways, such as Figure 1 As shown, each subway line is implemented by a comprehensive monitoring system platform, which includes a central level and station levels (stations, depots / parking lots). The station-level comprehensive monitoring communicates with various specialties through open standard industrial control protocols or Internet protocols. The station-level and central-level comprehensive monitoring platforms communicate internally through their proprietary protocols. The main equipment of the station-level comprehensive monitoring system includes a station server, station FEPs, and station workstations. The main equipment of the central-level comprehensive monitoring system includes a central real-time server, a central historical server, a central FEP, and a central workstation. Specialties connected at the station level include: Substation Automation System (PSCADA), Environmental and Equipment Monitoring System (BAS), Automatic Fire Monitoring System (FAS), Access Control System (ACS), Platform Screen Door System (PSD), Public Address System (PA), Video Surveillance System (CCTV), and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). Specialties connected at the central level include: Automatic Train Monitoring System (ATS), Passenger Information System (PIS), Public Address System (PA), Video Surveillance System (CCTV), Clock System (CLK), Automatic Fare Collection System (AFC), and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

[0004] The station-level access system collects real-time data from various disciplines at the station and simultaneously uploads it to both the center and the station. The center-level access system collects real-time data from various disciplines at the center and simultaneously uploads it to both the center and the station. Control commands are issued from the workstation to the server located at the workstation, then sent by the server to the FEP located at the interface, and finally by the FEP to the corresponding discipline. The station and the center ensure the uniqueness of control commands by transferring control authority.

[0005] The internal data flow between the integrated monitoring system center and the station differs in two ways due to variations in platform design and implementation methods from different manufacturers. One method involves the FEP collecting data from various disciplines and simultaneously sending it to both the center and station servers (e.g., ...). Figure 2 The real-time data stream shown in Figure 1 is as follows: one type involves the FEP collecting data from various specialties and sending it only to the station server (central server), which then sends it back to the central server (station server) (e.g., ...). Figure 3 The real-time data stream shown is 2). The internal data streams of the integrated monitoring system center and stations are private protocols and not open to the public. Therefore, the central stations of different platforms are not compatible. In most cases, the old and new platforms before and after the line upgrade are different.

[0006] When the integrated monitoring system of the line is upgraded, temporary equipment will be set up at all stations and the center to support the new platform. After the new platform is debugged, the old and new platforms need to be switched. The switching operation requires all specialties to be connected from the old platform to the new platform supported by the temporary equipment in one construction window. The risks at this time are: (1) One work point needs to switch all specialties of the line, which is a lot of work and time is tight. In case of emergency, it is necessary to return to the old platform for work, which will be even more time-sensitive and will inevitably affect the operation of the next day. (2) The new platform has only completed the functional and data verification. The stability in the field environment has not been verified for a long time. If a problem occurs, it will take a long time to return to the old platform, which will inevitably affect the operation of the next day.

[0007] As one of the key systems to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the subway, the integrated monitoring system plays an irreplaceable role and is an essential part of the daily operation of the subway. How to complete the system transformation and upgrading with minimal or no impact on the daily operation of the subway has become a current challenge for the industry. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an interface parallel distribution system for the transformation of integrated monitoring systems.

[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0010] Firstly, a parallel distribution method for interfaces is provided for the transformation of integrated monitoring systems, which connects new and old platforms with various disciplines;

[0011] The new platform includes a new platform server and a new platform FEP that are interconnected, and the old platform includes an old platform server and an old platform FEP that are interconnected.

[0012] The old platform FEP communicates with the first address processing device through a first external interface, the new platform FEP communicates with the second address processing device through a second external interface, each specialty communicates with the data receiving and distribution device through a third external interface, and the first address processing device and the second address processing device communicate with the data receiving and distribution device through internal interfaces respectively.

[0013] During the upgrade and transformation, with the new and old platforms running in parallel:

[0014] For the collected data stream, the data receiving and distribution device collects real-time data from various disciplines through the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface, and then distributes it to the first address processing device and the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface; after the first address processing device and the second address processing device perform IP address conversion respectively, they send the received data to the new platform FEP and the old platform FEP according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface and the second external interface respectively;

[0015] For control data flow, the new platform FEP sends control commands to the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface. The second address processing device sends the commands to the data receiving and distribution device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface. The data receiving and distribution device then sends the commands to each specialty according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface.

[0016] The old platform FEP sends control commands to the first address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface. The first address processing device sends the commands to the data receiving and distribution device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface. The data receiving and distribution device then sends the commands to each specialty according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface.

[0017] Based on the above, when the new and old platforms are running in parallel, if a certain specialty malfunctions, the network cable corresponding to the interface IP and interface protocol of the specialty being handled in the second address processing device will be unplugged, and the actual network cable of the specialty will be connected to the network interface of the old platform's FEP to restore the specialty to its state before the upgrade and ensure the normal operation of the old platform.

[0018] Based on the above, for the control data flow, a single-platform control mode is set up in which either the new or old platform controls the data flow, and a dual-platform control mode in which the new and old platforms alternate in controlling the data flow.

[0019] When using a dual-platform control method, the new and old platforms are not allowed to control the same professional interface in parallel. The control commands received in the third interface are executed in the order they are received. In a professional interface, when the control process of either the new or old platform is in progress, the control command sent by the other platform will be rejected. When the control command of one platform in the professional interface is completed, the new control command received will be executed normally.

[0020] Secondly, an interface parallel distribution system for the transformation of a comprehensive monitoring system is provided, including an interface parallel distribution system for connecting new and old platforms with various specialties;

[0021] The new platform includes a new platform server and a new platform FEP that are interconnected, and the old platform includes an old platform server and an old platform FEP that are interconnected.

[0022] The interface parallel distribution system includes a data receiving and distribution device, and a first address processing device and a second address processing device connected to the data receiving and distribution device via internal interfaces.

[0023] The first address processing device communicates with the old platform FEP through a first external interface, the second address processing device communicates with the new platform FEP through a second external interface, and the data receiving and distributing device communicates with various professional departments through a third external interface;

[0024] The new platform FEP is used to send control commands to the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface;

[0025] The old platform FEP is used to send control commands to the first address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface;

[0026] The data receiving and distributing device is used to collect real-time data from various disciplines through the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface, and then distribute it to the first address processing device and the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface; it is also used to receive control commands sent by the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface, and send the received control commands to various disciplines according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface; and it is further used to receive control commands sent by the first address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface, and send the received control commands to various disciplines according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface.

[0027] The first address processing device is used to send the received real-time data from various specialties to the old platform FEP according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface after performing IP address conversion; it is also used to receive control commands sent by the old platform FEP through the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface, and send the received control commands to the data receiving and distributing device according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface.

[0028] The second address processing device is used to send the received real-time data from various specialties to the new platform FEP according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface after performing IP address translation; it is also used to receive control commands sent by the new platform FEP through the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface, and send the received control commands to the data receiving and distributing device according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface.

[0029] Based on the above, when the new and old platforms are running in parallel, if a certain specialty malfunctions, the network cable corresponding to the interface IP and interface protocol of the specialty being handled in the second address processing device will be unplugged, and the actual network cable of the specialty will be connected to the network interface of the old platform's FEP to restore the specialty to its state before the upgrade and ensure the normal operation of the old platform.

[0030] Based on the above, the interface parallel distribution system is configured with a single-platform control mode where either the new or old platform is controlled, and a dual-platform control mode where the new and old platforms alternate in control.

[0031] When using a dual-platform control method, the new and old platforms are not allowed to control the same professional interface in parallel. The control commands received in the third interface are executed in the order they are received. In a professional interface, when the control process of either the new or old platform is in progress, the control command sent by the other platform will be rejected. When the control command of one platform in the professional interface is completed, the new control command received will be executed normally.

[0032] Based on the above, the interface parallel distribution system further includes:

[0033] The operation management module is used to read the parameters of the configuration file when the interface parallel distribution system starts, allocate the corresponding data area according to the parameters of the configuration file, and start the background service management process and the log message saving process. The background service management process is used to manage all business processes and start the business processes of each profession according to the professional configuration of the third external interface. It also provides a visual system operation status monitoring and control function for each process.

[0034] A professional receiving and distributing module is configured in the data receiving and distributing device. It is used to establish network connection channels with the first and second address processing devices and each professional device according to the configuration file and maintain them in real time. It uses an internal protocol to send and receive messages for the connection channels of the first and second address processing devices, and uses the interface protocol of the third external interface to parse received messages and organize sent messages for the connection channels of each professional device.

[0035] A professional address processing module is configured in the first address processing device and the second address processing device. It is used to establish and maintain network connection channels with the data receiving and distribution device and the new and old platforms respectively according to the configuration file. It uses the interface protocol of the internal interface to send and receive messages for the connection channel of the data receiving and distribution device, and uses the interface protocols of the corresponding first external interface and second external interface to parse received messages and organize sent messages for the connection channel of the new and old platforms.

[0036] The logging module is used to save system operation logs in real time and save real-time communication messages of each interface according to the configuration file for system maintenance.

[0037] The configuration management module provides a visual interface tool to manage the network IPs, network interfaces, protocol types, and parameters within each protocol stored in the database. It also provides a unified data configuration read / write interface for other modules to call.

[0038] This invention has outstanding substantive features and significant progress compared to the prior art. Specifically, the system of this invention can realize parallel access to two systems (new and old platforms) by each profession. If a fault is found during operation, a single profession can quickly restore FEP to the profession for direct connection and restore the original communication scheme. Attached Figure Description

[0047] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0048] The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the steps or units listed, but may include steps or units not listed.

[0049] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such terms can be used interchangeably where appropriate; this is merely a way of distinguishing objects with the same attributes in the embodiments of this application.

[0050] The system provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0051] Example 1

[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a parallel distribution method for interfaces used in the transformation of a comprehensive monitoring system, which connects new and old platforms with various disciplines;

[0053] The new platform includes a new platform server and a new platform FEP that are interconnected, and the old platform includes an old platform server and an old platform FEP that are interconnected.

[0054] The old platform FEP communicates with the first address processing device through a first external interface, the new platform FEP communicates with the second address processing device through a second external interface, each specialty communicates with the data receiving and distribution device through a third external interface, and the first address processing device and the second address processing device communicate with the data receiving and distribution device through internal interfaces respectively.

[0055] When upgrading and transforming, with both the old and new platforms operating in parallel:

[0056] For the collected data stream, the data receiving and distribution device collects real-time data from various disciplines through the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface, and then distributes it to the first address processing device and the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface; after the first address processing device and the second address processing device perform IP address conversion respectively, they send the received data to the new platform FEP and the old platform FEP according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface and the second external interface respectively;

[0057] For control data flow, the new platform FEP sends control commands to the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface. The second address processing device sends the commands to the data receiving and distribution device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface. The data receiving and distribution device then sends the commands to each specialty according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface.

[0058] The old platform FEP sends control commands to the first address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface. The first address processing device sends the commands to the data receiving and distribution device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface. The data receiving and distribution device then sends the commands to each specialty according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface.

[0059] This invention's method allows for parallel access to two systems (new and old platforms) by different specialties. If a fault is detected during operation, a single specialty can quickly restore the FEP to its original direct connection, resuming the original communication scheme. For example... Figure 5 As shown, when the new and old platforms are running in parallel, if a certain specialty malfunctions, the network cable corresponding to the interface IP and interface protocol of the specialty being handled in the second address processing device will be unplugged, and the actual network cable of the specialty will be connected to the network interface of the old platform's FEP. This will restore the specialty to its state before the upgrade and ensure the normal operation of the original system.

[0060] In some exemplary embodiments, for the control data flow, a single-platform control mode in which either the new or old platform controls the data flow, and a dual-platform control mode in which the new and old platforms alternately control the data flow;

[0061] When using a dual-platform control method, based on industrial control protocol control logic and security considerations, the new and old platforms are not allowed to control the same interface in parallel. The control commands received in the interface are executed sequentially to ensure the uniqueness of the control commands.

[0062] In a certain interface, when the control process of either the new or old platform is in progress, the control command sent by the other party will be rejected. Once the control command of one party in the interface is completed, the new control command received will be executed normally.

[0063] Example 2

[0064] This embodiment provides an interface parallel distribution system for the transformation of a comprehensive monitoring system, such as... Figure 4 As shown, this includes a parallel distribution system for interfaces connecting new and old platforms with various specialties;

[0065] The new platform includes a new platform server and a new platform FEP that are interconnected, and the old platform includes an old platform server and an old platform FEP that are interconnected.

[0066] The interface parallel distribution system includes a data receiving and distribution device, and a first address processing device and a second address processing device connected to the data receiving and distribution device via internal interfaces.

[0067] The first address processing device communicates with the old platform FEP through a first external interface, the second address processing device communicates with the new platform FEP through a second external interface, and the data receiving and distributing device communicates with various professional departments through a third external interface;

[0068] The new platform FEP is used to send control commands to the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface;

[0069] The old platform FEP is used to send control commands to the first address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface;

[0070] The data receiving and distributing device is used to collect real-time data from various disciplines through the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface, and then distribute it to the first address processing device and the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface; it is also used to receive control commands sent by the second address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface, and send the received control commands to various disciplines according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface; and it is further used to receive control commands sent by the first address processing device through the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface, and send the received control commands to various disciplines according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the third external interface.

[0071] The first address processing device is used to send the received real-time data from various specialties to the old platform FEP according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface after performing IP address conversion; it is also used to receive control commands sent by the old platform FEP through the interface IP and interface protocol of the first external interface, and send the received control commands to the data receiving and distributing device according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface.

[0072] The second address processing device is used to send the received real-time data from various specialties to the new platform FEP according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface after performing IP address translation; it is also used to receive control commands sent by the new platform FEP through the interface IP and interface protocol of the second external interface, and send the received control commands to the data receiving and distributing device according to the interface IP and interface protocol of the internal interface.

[0073] This embodiment of the system allows for parallel access to two systems (new and old platforms) by each specialty. If a fault is detected during operation, a single specialty can quickly restore the FEP to a direct connection, restoring the original communication scheme. For example... Figure 5 As shown, when the new and old platforms are running in parallel, if a certain specialty malfunctions, the network cable corresponding to the interface IP and interface protocol of the specialty being handled in the second address processing device will be unplugged, and the actual network cable of the specialty will be connected to the network interface of the old platform's FEP. This will restore the specialty to its state before the upgrade and ensure the normal operation of the original system.

[0074] In some exemplary embodiments, for the control data flow, the interface parallel distribution system can be configured as a single-platform control mode where either the new or old platform controls the data, and a dual-platform control mode where the new and old platforms alternate in controlling the data.

[0075] When using a dual-platform control method, based on industrial control protocol control logic and security considerations, the new and old platforms are not allowed to control the same interface in parallel. The control commands received in the interface are executed sequentially to ensure the uniqueness of the control commands.

[0076] In a certain interface, when the control process of either the new or old platform is in progress, the control command sent by the other party will be rejected. Once the control command of one party in the interface is completed, the new control command received will be executed normally.

[0077] In specific control implementation, such as Figure 6 As shown, the interface parallel distribution system is configured as follows:

[0078] The operation management module is used to read the parameters of the configuration file when the interface parallel distribution system starts, allocate the corresponding data area according to the parameters of the configuration file, and start the background service management process and the log message saving process. The background service management process is used to manage all business processes and start the business processes of each profession according to the professional configuration of the third external interface. It also provides a visual system operation status monitoring and control function for each process.

[0079] The professional receiving and distributing module is used to establish and maintain network connection channels with the first and second address processing devices and each professional according to the configuration file. It uses an internal protocol to send and receive messages for the connection channels of the first and second address processing devices, and uses the interface protocol of the third external interface to parse received messages and organize sent messages for the connection channels of each professional.

[0080] The professional address processing module is used to establish and maintain network connection channels with the data receiving and distribution device and the new and old platforms respectively according to the configuration file. It uses the interface protocol of the internal interface to send and receive messages for the connection channel of the data receiving and distribution device, and uses the interface protocols of the corresponding first external interface and second external interface to parse received messages and organize sent messages for the connection channel of the new and old platforms.

[0081] The logging module is used to save system operation logs in real time and save real-time communication messages of each interface according to the configuration file for system maintenance.

[0082] The configuration management module provides a visual interface tool to manage the system's network IP, network port, protocol type (Modbus protocol, IEC104 protocol, etc.) and parameters within each protocol stored in the database. It also provides a unified data configuration read / write interface for other modules to call.

[0083] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first address processing device consists of an industrial control computer and the system software running on it. The system software includes an interface parallel distribution system operation management module, a log management module, a configuration management module, and various professional address processing modules such as BAS and PSCADA. The second address processing device has the same functional modules as the first address processing device, except that its connection IP with the data receiving and distribution device is different.

[0084] The data receiving and distribution equipment consists of an industrial control computer and the system software running on it. The system software includes an interface parallel distribution system operation management module, a log management module, a configuration management module, and various professional data receiving and distribution modules such as BAS and PSCADA. Specifically, the BAS data receiving and distribution module connects to the BAS professional equipment for data communication, and then connects to the BAS address processing module for data communication. The same process applies to other professional modules such as PSCADA.

[0085] The receiving and distribution function flow of the present invention is as follows: Figure 8 As shown:

[0086] (1) The professional receiving and distribution process starts by reading the configuration parameters such as network IP, port and interface protocol of the professional from the database and checking the legality of the configuration data.

[0087] (2) Create and initialize a professional data buffer and a professional message buffer. Create an address processing device data thread and a professional data thread.

[0088] (3) Specialized data processing thread;

[0089] A) Create a web client to proactively connect to the relevant field;

[0090] B) Upon establishment of a new connection, identity verification is initialized according to the protocol;

[0091] C) After initialization, send a message to collect data according to the configuration;

[0092] D) Process the received messages according to the protocol and write the collected data into the data buffer.

[0093] (4) Address processing device data thread;

[0094] A) Create a network listener and wait for the address processing device to connect;

[0095] B) New connection established, identity verification failed, connection closed, waiting for new connection;

[0096] C) Identity verification successful; initialize according to the protocol.

[0097] D) After initialization is complete, wait to receive messages;

[0098] E) Process received messages and read data from the data buffer according to the protocol to send reply messages.

[0099] When upgrading the integrated monitoring system of a line, temporary equipment will be set up at all stations and the center to support the new platform. After the new platform is debugged, a switchover between the old and new platforms is required. Because the integrated monitoring system requires all stations along the entire line to be connected to function properly, a single switchover operation requires connecting every specialty at each station from the old platform to the new platform supported by the temporary equipment within a single construction window. Generally, a line has 10 to 30 stations (in reality, there are lines with more than 60 stations), and each station has approximately 8 specialties. The subway operating hours are generally from 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Because various preparatory work such as track inspection is required every morning, a single construction window is from 11:30 PM to 4:30 AM, a total of 4 hours. Therefore, the time is extremely tight and there is a significant risk involved.

[0100] When using the parallel distribution system of the present invention, after the new platform is built, one station and one specialty can be connected to the parallel distribution system. After being connected to the parallel distribution system, the old platform still has complete functionality when connected to this specialty. The new platform can be connected to the new specialty for testing and verification. A construction window can be connected to either one specialty or one station, without being limited by the construction window time. During this period, users can still use the old platform without being affected, which greatly reduces the upgrade risk.

[0101] In addition, the integrated monitoring system for the line requires the platform software to work as a whole with the actual hardware, network and interface system on site to realize the actual functions. However, during the upgrade process, the initial debugging only verified the data configuration and some single-station functions. Some functions based on the entire line were not fully verified, and the overall stability of the system has not been verified over a long period of time, which poses a significant risk.

[0102] When using the parallel distribution system of this invention, after each station and each profession is connected to the parallel distribution system, the old and new platforms run simultaneously and have functions at the same time. Both can be used. Users can verify the functionality and stability of the new platform over a long period of time before finally dismantling the old platform.

[0103] This document uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the methods and core ideas of this application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
