[0035] This invention discloses a building intelligent alarm system. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the building intelligent alarm system in one embodiment of the present invention; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The building intelligent alarm system includes: at least one light source module 1 and at least one sensor module 2;

[0036] The light source module 1 includes a first control circuit 11, a wireless routing module 12, a first wireless communication module 13, a light-emitting unit 14, and a speaker 15. The first control circuit 11 is connected to the wireless routing module 12, the first wireless communication module 13, the light-emitting unit 14, and the speaker 15. The light source module 1 forms a network with the setting sensor module 2 through the wireless routing module 12; at the same time, the light source modules 1 within the setting area can communicate with each other through their first wireless communication modules 13; the light-emitting unit 14 is used to emit light, and the speaker 15 is used to play alarm information.

[0037] The sensing module 2 includes a second control circuit 21, a second wireless communication module 22, and a sensor 23. The second control circuit 21 is connected to the second wireless communication module 22 and the sensor 23. The sensor 23 is used to sense a setting signal and send it to the second control circuit 21. The second control circuit 21 can send the signal received from the sensor to the setting light source module 1, or / and the second control circuit 21 processes the signal received from the sensor 23 and can send the processed information to the setting light source module 1.

[0038] In each light source module 1, at least one light source module further includes a third wireless communication module 16. The light source module 1 accesses an external network through the third wireless communication module 16, thereby enabling it to send alarm information to a communication device on the external network.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the light source module 1 further includes an alarm information transmission module 17, which is used to send alarm information to other light source modules within a set range after acquiring alarm information. In one embodiment, the first control circuit controls the operation of the alarm information transmission module; a light source module that has already forwarded information once within a set time will not forward information again if it hears forwarding information from other light source modules.

[0040] The sensor 23 of the sensing module 2 may include at least one of a temperature sensor, a water immersion sensor, a set gas sensor, and a camera. The first wireless communication module 13 and the second wireless communication module 22 may each include at least one of a Wi-Fi communication module, a Bluetooth communication module, a Zigbee communication module, a Thread communication module, a Matter communication module, an 802.15.4 protocol communication module, and a SubG communication module. The third wireless communication module 17 may be a cellular network module, or other communication modules capable of accessing external networks. The sensing module 2 further includes a battery module 24, which powers the electrical components of the sensing module 2.

[0041] The light source module 1 can be a lamp integrating a wireless module 14 and a speaker 15, and can be powered by the municipal power grid. This invention can be used to upgrade existing corridor lights, transforming them into a three-in-one lighting device combining a corridor light, speaker, and wireless module. In smart buildings, various sensors with wireless modules are used. These sensors can be temperature sensors (detecting fires), water immersion sensors (detecting leaks), CO2 / CO sensors (detecting fires, gas leaks, dust, etc.), or cameras (analyzing anomalies through AI video, such as debris accumulating in fire exits). The corridor lights and various sensors form a network, allowing communication between any devices. The wireless modules used in the corridor lights and various sensors can be, but are not limited to, the following technologies: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, Thread, Matter, 802.15.4, SubG, etc.

[0042] The system also includes several corridor lights that function as gateways. In one embodiment, several gateways are used instead of one to prevent the system from failing to transmit the anomaly to the external network if a single gateway malfunctions. Corridor lights with gateway functionality can be further enhanced with a cellular module to transmit anomalies to the external network, such as notifying the fire department.

[0043] When various sensors detect an anomaly, they immediately transmit the information to the three-in-one corridor lights via wireless modules. The corridor lights then enter a flashing alarm state and sound an alarm. Simultaneously, the alarms are relayed and transmitted between the corridor lights via wireless modules, eventually activating the alarm for all corridor lights in the building. At the same time, the gateway, upon receiving the anomaly, will automatically notify property management, the fire department, and other relevant departments for emergency disaster response.

[0044] The corridor lights are powered by AC mains, so their wireless modules are always active. When an anomaly occurs, the information is quickly relayed to nearby corridor lights, which then pass the message to other nearby lights. This relay continues until all corridor lights in the building are in alarm mode. Because the wireless modules are always active, this relay is very rapid, triggering alarms for all corridor lights in the building within seconds. A network flooding strategy can be used here, but with optimizations to prevent network congestion. For example, a device that has already forwarded a message once within a certain timeframe will not forward it again if it hears another device forwarding the message. This strategy is somewhat unreliable in sparsely populated networks, but reliable for densely populated buildings with corridor lights. Sparsely populated networks typically mean that only two nodes can communicate, and cross-node communication is impossible. With the density of corridor lights, the wireless signal forwarded by one corridor light can often be received by 5-10 adjacent corridor lights.

[0045] Various sensors can be battery powered. In design, sensors can wake up every few seconds or tens of seconds for detection. A higher wake-up frequency results in lower latency for anomaly detection, but also shorter battery life; a balance must be struck in the design. Each wake-up check takes several milliseconds to tens of milliseconds. If no anomaly is detected, wireless communication can be avoided, further saving power. Following this strategy, the sensor spends approximately 99% of its time in sleep mode, significantly improving battery life. Reducing the duration of each wake-up can be optimized from several angles: Since over 99% of wake-ups do not involve anomalies, the work is repetitive. For this repetitive work, execution speed can be improved by running the code on a fast medium, or tasks during wake-up can be rationally scheduled for parallel processing. For example, some sensors have a warm-up preparation time; in this case, the sensor can be warmed up in advance, and the code can complete other tasks during the sensor warm-up preparation process, such as network handshake interaction with corridor lights.
