Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of industrial Internet of Things, and in particular to a real-time industrial data acquisition and monitoring system integrating edge computing and 5G. Background Art
[0002] The field of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology has developed rapidly in recent years. Data acquisition and monitoring systems, as a core component of the IIoT, are crucial for improving industrial production efficiency, ensuring production safety, and enabling intelligent manufacturing. Traditional industrial data acquisition and monitoring systems primarily utilize wired transmission, transmitting collected data via industrial fieldbuses or Ethernet to a central control system for processing and analysis. The rapid increase in the variety and number of industrial field devices has led to an exponential increase in the amount of data generated. Traditional centralized data processing architectures face challenges such as insufficient data transmission bandwidth, high processing latency, and poor system reliability, making them unable to meet the real-time and reliable data requirements of modern industrial production.
[0003] Chinese patent CN116055525A discloses an "edge computing-based industrial data acquisition system." This system comprises a data acquisition layer, an edge computing layer, and a cloud platform layer. By deploying edge computing devices on-site to process collected data locally, it reduces the computing burden on the cloud platform. However, this system uses traditional wired or 4G wireless networks for data transmission, and in high-concurrency, large-scale data transmission scenarios, it still faces problems such as limited network bandwidth and unstable transmission delays. Another Chinese patent, CN116736755A, proposes a "5G network-supported industrial blockchain data acquisition system." This system leverages the high-bandwidth characteristics of 5G networks to achieve high-speed transmission of industrial data. However, the system still uses a centralized data processing architecture, fails to fully leverage the advantages of edge computing, and lacks the ability to uniformly process heterogeneous data from multiple sources.
[0004] The above-mentioned existing technical solutions have the following technical problems: First, existing systems lack unified access standards for data collection from multi-source heterogeneous industrial equipment, resulting in poor system scalability and high maintenance costs. Second, although some systems have introduced edge computing or 5G technology, they have failed to effectively integrate the advantages of both technologies and cannot simultaneously meet the real-time processing and remote monitoring needs of industrial field data. Third, existing systems generally lack edge-cloud collaborative data processing mechanisms, making it difficult to achieve in-depth data analysis and long-term storage while ensuring real-time response. Fourth, system resource scheduling is not flexible enough, and computing resources cannot be dynamically allocated according to industrial field data flow and computing needs, resulting in low system resource utilization. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a real-time industrial data collection and monitoring system that integrates edge computing and 5G technologies to address the above technical problems.

[0101] Example 2
[0102] Reference Figure 2-Figure 6 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention, provides an industrial data real-time acquisition and monitoring system integrating edge computing and 5G, including:
[0103] 1. Parallel Process of Multi-Source Heterogeneous Data Acquisition Module
[0104] Parallel data acquisition and processing architecture
[0105] The multi-source heterogeneous data acquisition module utilizes a multi-threaded parallel processing architecture, enabling simultaneous data acquisition from diverse industrial devices and protocol conversion. Multiple protocol adapters within the system can operate concurrently, collecting data for different protocols, including Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, OPC UA / DA, MQTT, and HTTP. These adapters operate simultaneously without interfering with each other, significantly improving data acquisition efficiency.
[0106] Implementation steps
[0107] Parallel device discovery and connection: At system startup, the system simultaneously executes the device discovery protocol on different network segments. Multiple network scanners work in parallel, detecting devices within their respective network areas. Upon discovery, the system immediately establishes a separate communication connection for each device. These connections proceed independently and simultaneously, without blocking each other.
[0108] Multi-protocol Parallel Data Collection: The system allocates independent collection threads to each device type, which execute their respective data collection tasks concurrently. Slow response times for some devices will not affect data collection progress for other devices. The system also dynamically adjusts thread priorities based on device importance to ensure timely data acquisition for critical devices.
[0109] Parallel protocol conversion and data caching: Collected raw data is immediately fed into the protocol conversion engine, while the data caching unit also operates in parallel to temporarily store the data. Multiple parsers within the protocol conversion engine simultaneously process different types of data, converting them into a unified JSON format. Simultaneously, data preprocessing threads perform operations such as data denoising and outlier detection in parallel. These processes are independent and run simultaneously.
[0110] Dynamic collection policy adjustment: During system operation, the resource monitoring thread continuously monitors CPU / memory usage and network bandwidth usage. Simultaneously, the policy adjustment thread analyzes data importance and dynamically adjusts the collection frequency. In parallel, the fault recovery thread monitors device connection status and performs necessary recovery operations. These three threads collaborate but operate independently, ensuring optimal system performance in complex and changing industrial environments.
[0111] 2. Parallel Process of Edge Computing Node Cluster
[0112] Containerized parallel processing architecture
[0113] Edge computing node clusters use containerization technology to achieve dynamic resource scheduling and parallel data processing. Multiple containers within the cluster run simultaneously, responsible for tasks such as data reception and parsing, data filtering and cleaning, feature extraction and calculation, model inference and decision-making, and data compression and transmission. This forms a complete data processing pipeline, with each link working in parallel, significantly improving data processing efficiency.
[0114] Implementation steps
[0115] Parallel dynamic resource scheduling: The monitoring thread in the edge computing node cluster monitors the load of each node in real time and generates a resource heat map. Simultaneously, the scheduling thread analyzes task priorities and calculates resource allocation plans. The prediction thread predicts future load based on historical data and prepares computing resources in advance. These three threads operate in parallel, ensuring optimal allocation of system resources and ensuring that computing resources always match current data processing needs.
[0116] Distributed parallel data processing: The system intelligently partitions the input data stream and distributes it to different processing nodes, which simultaneously execute data filtering and feature extraction algorithms. After each node completes processing, the results are aggregated in real time to form a complete data analysis result. This distributed parallel processing approach enables the system to process large amounts of data from multiple sources simultaneously without creating processing bottlenecks.
[0117] Multi-model parallel inference: Anomaly detection models, trend prediction models, and device health models on edge computing nodes operate simultaneously, performing different types of data analysis tasks. These models are independent but their results complement each other, forming a comprehensive data analysis system. The system dynamically adjusts the execution priority of each model based on the current computing resource status to ensure that key models can complete inference tasks in a timely manner.
[0118] Parallel Decision-Making and Feedback: When the system detects multiple events, it simultaneously initiates multiple decision-making processes, evaluating event priorities, querying the decision rule base, and executing the corresponding decision logic. For high-priority events, the system immediately triggers corresponding actions without waiting for other events to complete. This parallel decision-making mechanism enables the system to rapidly respond to various events in complex and changing industrial environments.
[0119] 3. Parallel Processes of 5G Communication Network
[0120] Network slicing parallel transmission architecture
[0121] 5G communication networks utilize network slicing technology to achieve multi-channel, parallel data transmission. The system uses multiple network slices simultaneously to transmit high-priority real-time control data, general monitoring data, and historical data and configuration information. These slices operate independently, ensuring that the transmission of critical data is not affected by other data flows, thereby ensuring the real-time and reliability of the system.
[0122] Implementation steps
[0123] Multi-path parallel transmission: The system intelligently classifies packets to be transmitted and selects the optimal transmission path for each type of data. These packets are transmitted simultaneously along different network paths. The system monitors the transmission quality of each path in real time and dynamically adjusts routing strategies to ensure that data reaches its destination via the most reliable and efficient path.
[0124] Parallel Network Status Monitoring: The system's bandwidth monitoring thread, latency monitoring thread, and reliability monitoring thread operate simultaneously, each responsible for monitoring different aspects of the network. The bandwidth monitoring thread collects real-time bandwidth usage and predicts bandwidth demand, the latency monitoring thread measures end-to-end latency and analyzes latency fluctuations, and the reliability monitoring thread calculates packet loss rate and assesses link stability. These three threads operate in parallel, forming a comprehensive network status monitoring system.
[0125] Intelligent network switching mechanism: The system simultaneously monitors the quality of multiple network connections and predicts potential failures for each. If a link degrades, the system immediately prepares a backup link and seamlessly switches to ensure uninterrupted data transmission. This parallel monitoring and prediction mechanism enables the system to react quickly to changes in the network environment, maintaining communication continuity.
[0126] Parallel Data Transmission Optimization: The system's compression optimization thread, scheduling optimization thread, and bandwidth allocation thread work in parallel to optimize data transmission. The compression optimization thread selects the optimal compression algorithm and performs data compression. The scheduling optimization thread analyzes data timeliness and adjusts transmission order. The bandwidth allocation thread dynamically allocates bandwidth resources and balances multi-stream transmission. These threads work together but independently to ensure the system achieves the most efficient data transmission within limited network resources.
[0127] 4. Parallel Processes on the Cloud Analysis Platform
[0128] Distributed parallel analysis architecture
[0129] The cloud-based analytics platform uses a distributed architecture to enable parallel data storage and analysis. Multiple computing clusters within the platform operate simultaneously, responsible for tasks such as time-series data storage and indexing, batch data analysis, real-time stream processing, model training and optimization, and visualization rendering and interaction. These clusters collaborate with each other but operate independently, forming a complete data analysis system.
[0130] Implementation steps
[0131] Parallel Data Reception and Storage: The cloud platform simultaneously receives data streams from multiple edge nodes, verifies data integrity, analyzes data structures, and determines storage strategies. The system uses partitioned storage technology to write data simultaneously to multiple storage nodes, simultaneously establishing time indexes and updating metadata directories during the write process. This parallel data reception and storage mechanism enables the system to efficiently handle large numbers of concurrent data write requests.
[0132] Multi-dimensional parallel data analysis: The cloud platform's statistical analysis threads, trend analysis threads, and correlation analysis threads operate simultaneously, each performing different types of data analysis tasks. The statistical analysis thread calculates key indicator statistics and performs correlation analysis, the trend analysis thread applies time series models to identify long-term trends, and the correlation analysis thread explores relationships between parameters and constructs correlation networks. These analysis threads are independent but their results complement each other, forming a comprehensive data analysis system.
[0133] Parallel model training and optimization: The system trains multiple analytical models simultaneously, with each model undergoing an independent training process, including preparing training datasets, performing feature engineering, training model instances, evaluating model performance, optimizing model parameters, and deploying updated models. These training processes are executed in parallel, fully utilizing cloud computing resources and significantly improving the efficiency of model training and optimization.
[0134] Multi-level parallel visualization: The system's real-time monitoring, trend analysis, and deep analysis threads operate simultaneously, each responsible for different levels of data visualization. The real-time monitoring thread renders real-time data dashboards and updates key indicators; the trend analysis thread generates trend charts and updates forecast intervals; and the deep analysis thread constructs multidimensional analytical views and performs interactive data drilldown. These visualization threads operate in parallel, providing users with a comprehensive, real-time data visualization experience.
[0135] 5. Edge-Cloud Collaborative Parallel Process
[0136] Edge-cloud collaborative architecture
[0137] A collaborative mechanism is established between edge computing nodes and the cloud platform to achieve bidirectional synchronization of data and models. The system simultaneously executes data synchronization processes, model synchronization processes, and configuration synchronization processes, responsible for edge-to-cloud data transmission and synchronization, cloud-to-edge model updates and deployment, and bidirectional synchronization of system parameters and policies. These synchronization processes operate independently but in coordination, ensuring consistent data, models, and configurations between the edge and cloud.
[0138] Implementation steps
[0139] Parallel incremental data synchronization: The system's change detection thread, priority processing thread, and transfer execution thread operate simultaneously to achieve efficient incremental data synchronization. The change detection thread monitors data changes and calculates differential data, the priority processing thread assesses data importance and arranges synchronization order, and the transfer execution thread performs data transfer and verifies synchronization results. These threads operate in parallel, ensuring that important data on the edge is synchronized to the cloud in a timely manner while minimizing network transmission burden.
[0140] Parallel model updates and deployment: The system pushes model updates to multiple edge nodes simultaneously, with each node independently performing the model download, verification, deployment, and testing process. This parallel update mechanism enables the system to complete large-scale model updates in a short period of time, ensuring that all edge nodes have access to the latest analytical models. The system also dynamically adjusts the update strategy based on the node's network status and computing power to ensure that the update process does not affect the normal operation of the node.
[0141] Adaptive Computing Load Distribution: The system simultaneously executes three parallel processes: edge computing capacity assessment, cloud resource monitoring, and task allocation decision-making. The edge computing capacity assessment process tests the computing performance of each node and predicts load fluctuations. The cloud resource monitoring process monitors cloud resource utilization and estimates processing latency. The task allocation decision-making process calculates the optimal allocation plan based on task characteristics and resource availability. These three processes run in parallel to dynamically balance the computing load and ensure optimal utilization of system resources.
[0142] Parallel Fault Recovery: The system simultaneously monitors the health of multiple components and prepares independent recovery strategies for each. When a component anomaly is detected, the system immediately isolates the fault and activates a backup system to ensure overall functionality. This parallel monitoring and recovery mechanism enables the system to maintain high availability in complex and volatile industrial environments, ensuring that core services continue to be provided even if some components fail.
