Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure generally relates to the Internet of Things (IoT) field, and particularly to an information frame, information frame parsing method, and apparatus for network communication. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of frequency modulation (FM) communication, devices typically send or receive information frames to monitor their operational status and transmit valid information or data. Whether sending or receiving, the device needs to fully parse the data within the information frame (e.g., a single bit of information). For example, at the transmitting end, the device performs cyclic redundancy check (CRC) processing, Hamming encoding, bit whitening, interleaving, and Gray mapping on the information frame. At the receiving end, the device performs the reverse process on the received information frame, including de-Gray mapping, deinterleaving, dewhitening, de-Hamming encoding, and CRC processing. However, this process is complex, inefficient, and prone to errors in parsing codewords within the information frame, leading to inaccurate results and a high error rate. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In a second aspect of this disclosure, an information frame parsing method is provided. The method includes receiving an information frame, the information frame including sequence code information, wherein the sequence code information includes a mapping table of multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses; when a preamble information is detected in the information frame, the sequence code information is decoded to determine the address of the device itself.

[0005] In a third aspect of this disclosure, an information frame parsing apparatus is provided, comprising an information frame receiving module configured to receive an information frame, the information frame including sequence code information, wherein the sequence code information includes a mapping table of multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses; and a sequence code information decoding module configured to decode the sequence code information to determine the address of the device itself when a preamble information is detected in the information frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0009] Embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While some embodiments of this disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of this disclosure. It should be understood that the accompanying drawings and embodiments of this disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0010] It should be noted that the headings of any section / subsection provided herein are not limiting. Various embodiments are described throughout this document, and embodiments of any type may be included under any section / subsection. Furthermore, embodiments described in any section / subsection may be combined in any way with any other embodiments described in the same section / subsection and / or different sections / subsections.

[0011] In the description of embodiments of this disclosure, the term "comprising" and similar terms should be understood as open-ended inclusion, i.e., "including but not limited to". The term "based on" should be understood as "at least partially based on". The term "one embodiment" or "the embodiment" should be understood as "at least one embodiment". The term "some embodiments" should be understood as "at least some embodiments". Other explicit and implicit definitions may also be included below. The terms "first", "second", etc., may refer to different or the same objects. Other explicit and implicit definitions may also be included below.

[0012] For ease of description, several concepts and terms are first defined here.

[0013] As used in this disclosure, a "symbol" (or code) refers to a basic signal unit that carries information, i.e., the numerical value demodulated from each symbol. A symbol can represent one bit or more bits.

[0014] The “preamble information” used in this disclosure, also known as a variable preamble, is used to provide signal detection, set receiver gain, and synchronize frequency and sampling time.

[0015] As used in this disclosure, "demodulation" refers to the receiving end converting the signal on the carrier wave into a digital signal to recover the original data.

[0016] As used in this disclosure, "decoding" refers to the receiving end restoring data according to rules, which may include decompression, error correction, etc.

[0017] As used in this disclosure, "time skew" refers to the relative delay that occurs during signal transmission. Time skew can lead to an increase in bit error rate and a decrease in system performance.

[0018] As used in this disclosure, "frequency offset" refers to the deviation between the actual frequency and the reference or nominal frequency. Frequency offset leads to an increase in the bit error rate and a decrease in system performance.

[0019] In IoT communication, multiple devices (such as gateways and multiple terminal devices) frequently transmit signals, including information frames. Traditional information frames are relatively long, storing the addresses of the terminal devices in the payload for transmission. Furthermore, both the transmitting and receiving ends require a complex and tedious parsing process for the entire information frame, resulting in long demodulation times and low efficiency. In addition, information frame transmission is susceptible to time and frequency offsets, leading to degraded demodulation performance and inaccurate data with a high error rate.

[0020] Therefore, this disclosure provides an information frame for network communication. The information frame includes preamble information for identifying information frame sequence code information. The sequence code information includes a mapping table corresponding to multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses. Each sequence code includes multiple code elements, which are arranged according to a preset change rule. Different sequence codes correspond to different preset change rules. The mapping table is configured so that when a device detects the preamble information, it determines the relationship between the code elements in the sequence code according to the preset change rule, and determines the device's own address based on the relationship between the code elements. In this way, the length of the information frame is significantly shortened, the transmission and reception time of the information frame is reduced, and the transmission and reception power is improved. The demodulation process of the information frame is simplified, the demodulation time is shortened, and the demodulation efficiency and the accuracy of the mediated data are improved.

[0021] The following description will continue with reference to the accompanying drawings, which will provide some exemplary embodiments of this disclosure.

[0022] First see Figure 1 It illustrates a schematic diagram of an example environment in which embodiments of the present disclosure may be implemented. For example... Figure 1 As shown, in environment 100, environment 100 may include communication device 110 and first device 120-1, second device 120-2, ... Nth device 120-N. For example, communication device 110 may be a gateway device, and first device 120-1, second device 120-2, ... Nth device 120-N may be terminal devices, transmitting information frames between the gateway device and multiple terminal devices. In some embodiments, communication device 110 may send information frames without payload information to first device 120-1, second device 120-2, ... Nth device 120-N. These terminal devices receive the information frames, parse them to determine their own addresses, indicating that the terminal device is in a working state. In some embodiments, communication device 110 may also send information frames carrying payload information to first device 120-1, second device 120-2, ... Nth device 120-N. These terminal devices receive the information frames, parse them to determine their own addresses and the data in the payload information. This will be described in detail below.

[0023] It should be understood that the structure and function of environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of this disclosure.

[0024] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of an information frame for network communication according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. The following is in conjunction with... Figure 1 and Figure 2 This explains the structure of information frames and their transmission between devices.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, an information frame for network communication is provided. The first information frame 200 includes preamble information 210 and sequence code information 220. The preamble information 210 is used to identify the information frame. The sequence code information 220 includes a mapping table corresponding to multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses. Each sequence code includes multiple code elements, which are arranged according to a preset change rule. Different sequence codes correspond to different preset change rules. The mapping table is configured so that when a device detects the preamble information, it determines the relationship between the code elements in the sequence code according to the preset change rule, and determines the device's own address based on the relationship between the code elements.

[0026] In some embodiments, the sequence code information 220 includes multiple symbols. The receiving device can demodulate each symbol of the sequence code information 220 and perform decoding operations on the relationship between adjacent symbols. The relationship between adjacent symbols is, for example, the relative value of the preceding and following symbols, such as the difference between the preceding and following symbols.

[0027] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, communication device 110, acting as a gateway device, sends information frames to terminal devices such as first device 120-1, second device 120-2, ... Nth device 120-N. After receiving the information frames, first device 120-1, second device 120-2, ... Nth device 120-N detects the presence of preamble information 210 and then checks the sequence code information. The sequence code information contains a mapping table, which stores multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses. For example, the first sequence code corresponds to the address of first device 120-1, the second sequence code corresponds to the address of first device 120-1, ... the Nth sequence code corresponds to the address of Nth device 120-N. Each sequence code includes multiple code elements, which are arranged according to a preset change rule. Different sequence codes correspond to different preset change rules. For example, the first sequence code includes multiple code elements 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, where the difference between any two adjacent code elements is equal and equal to 1. The second sequence code includes multiple code elements of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10... The difference between any two adjacent code elements is equal, and the difference is 2. Similarly, the Nth sequence code includes multiple code elements, and the difference between any two adjacent code elements is equal, and the difference is N.

[0028] The first device 120-1, the second device 120-2, ..., the Nth device 120-N determine the relationship between the code elements in the sequence code according to a preset change rule (the difference between the preceding code and the following code is equal) (e.g., the difference is 1, 2...N), and determine the address of the device itself based on the relationship between the code elements. For example, the first device 120-1 only detects the difference between the preceding code and the following code, and the difference is 1, so the address of the first device 120-1 found in the mapping table is "1". Similarly, the second device 120-2 only detects the difference between the preceding code and the following code, and the difference is 2, so the address of the second device 120-2 found in the mapping table is "2"... and so on, the Nth device 120-N only detects the difference between the preceding code and the following code, and the difference is N, so the address of the Nth device 120-N found in the mapping table is "N".

[0029] In some embodiments, the first variation rule, the second variation rule, ... the Nth variation rule all include an arithmetic sequence function; wherein, multiple code elements in the first sequence code are arranged according to a first arithmetic sequence, the first arithmetic sequence indicating that the difference between adjacent preceding and following codes is a first value; multiple code elements in the second sequence code are arranged according to a second arithmetic sequence, the second arithmetic sequence indicating that the difference between adjacent preceding and following codes is a second value; ... multiple code elements in the Nth sequence code are arranged according to an Nth arithmetic sequence, the Nth arithmetic sequence indicating that the difference between adjacent preceding and following codes is an Nth value. The mapping table is configured to determine the corresponding device address based on the first value, the second value, ... the Nth value. In some embodiments, the first value, the second value, ... the Nth value is an arithmetic sequence.

[0030] For example, the first, second, ... Nth variation patterns are different arithmetic sequence functions. In other words, the difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the first, second, ... Nth arithmetic sequence is an arithmetic sequence. For instance, the difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the first arithmetic sequence is the first value "1", and the first sequence codes are 1, 2, 3, 4. The difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the second arithmetic sequence is the second value "2", and the second sequence codes are 1, 3, 5, 7. The difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the third arithmetic sequence is the second value "3", and the third sequence codes are 1, 4, 7, 10. And so on, the difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the Nth arithmetic sequence is the Nth value "N". That is, the first value, the second value, ... the Nth value is an arithmetic sequence 1, 2, 3, ... N.

[0031] In some embodiments, the first value, the second value, ... the Nth value form a geometric sequence.

[0032] Continuing with the example above, the differences between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the first, second, ..., Nth arithmetic sequences form geometric sequences. For example, assuming a common ratio of 2, the difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the first arithmetic sequence is the first value "1", and the first sequence number is 1, 2, 3, 4. The difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the second arithmetic sequence is the second value "2", and the second sequence number is 1, 3, 5, 7. The difference between adjacent prefixes and suffixes in the third arithmetic sequence is the second value "4", and the third sequence number is 1, 5, 9, 13. That is, the first, second, and third values ​​form a geometric sequence of 1, 2, 4.

[0033] It should be understood that the above-listed pre-defined change patterns are merely examples, and other pre-defined change patterns are also possible. The sequence code can arrange multiple code elements according to any suitable function. For example, the first sequence code can arrange multiple code elements according to an arithmetic sequence, the second sequence code can arrange multiple code elements according to a geometric sequence, the third sequence code can arrange multiple code elements according to a linearly increasing function, and so on. This disclosure does not impose specific limitations in this regard.

[0034] In some embodiments, the information frame may further include payload information, which includes data for storing network communication; a frame start symbol for identifying the start point of the payload information; and a frame end symbol for identifying the end point of the payload information; wherein the length of the payload information is determined based on the frame start symbol and the frame end symbol.

[0035] For example, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of an information frame for network communication according to other embodiments of this disclosure is shown. For example... Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 The second information frame 300 includes preamble information 310, sequence code information 320, frame start symbol 330, payload information 340, and frame end symbol 350. That is, the frame start symbol 330, payload information 340, and frame end symbol 350 are placed as an additional frame after the preamble information 310 and sequence code information 320. The payload information 340 is identified using the frame start symbol 330. The frame start symbol 330 may include two up-chirp signals and two down-chirp signals. The up-chirp signals refer to chirps with a positive slope (i.e., increasing frequency) and down-chirp signals refer to chirps with a negative slope (i.e., decreasing frequency). The payload information 340 follows the frame start symbol 330, and its length can be arbitrary. The frame end symbol 350 follows the payload information 320.

[0036] The above describes two information frame structures. Firstly, in scenarios where payload information does not need to be transmitted, the transmitting device can choose to send the first information frame 200; in scenarios where payload information needs to be transmitted, the transmitting device can choose to send the second information frame 300. The lengths of the first information frame 200 and the second information frame 300 are significantly shortened, reducing the transmission time, sending time, and receiving time of the information frames. Since the receiving device only needs to detect the sequence code information after receiving the first information frame 200 to determine the device address and wake up the terminal device, in scenarios where payload information does not need to be transmitted, the terminal device only needs to detect the relationship between the symbols in the sequence code (e.g., the relative values ​​between adjacent symbols) to determine the device address. This eliminates the need for pre-processing operations such as encoding / decoding, CRC, interleaving, and Hamming encoding of the entire information frame, thus shortening the information frame parsing time, improving parsing efficiency, reducing transmission and reception power, and lowering power consumption. In scenarios where payload information needs to be transmitted, in addition to detecting the relationship between symbols in the sequence code to determine the device address, the terminal device also performs some preliminary operations such as encoding and decoding, CRC check, interleaving, and Hamming encoding on the payload information. When demodulating the payload information, each symbol in the payload information needs to be demodulated, and the absolute value of each code obtained needs to be decoded.

[0037] Secondly, information frames are susceptible to time and frequency offsets during transmission. For example, if the sequence code in the information frame is 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 before transmission, after being affected by time and frequency offsets during transmission, the sequence code arriving at the receiving end becomes 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. This means that the receiving terminal device generates bit errors when demodulating the sequence code, leading to errors in the demodulated address. The information frame provided in this disclosure only requires the receiving device to detect the relationship between the symbols in the sequence code; it does not need to parse the entire sequence code. Since the relationship between the symbols does not change due to parsing errors, determining the device's address based on the symbol relationship reduces the bit error rate and improves the accuracy of the demodulation result.

[0038] Thirdly, in scenarios requiring information transmission, traditional frame structures necessitate the addition of a frame header to convey payload information such as length and other details. At the transmitting or receiving end, the frame header also requires encoding / decoding, CRC, interleaving, Hamming encoding, and other preliminary operations, resulting in complex processes and high power consumption. The simplified information frame structure provided in this disclosure, compared to traditional information frame structures, eliminates the frame header and synchronization word. When parsing the sequence code information in the information frame, both the transmitting and receiving devices do not need to perform CRC checks, encoding / decoding, whitening, interleaving, Gray mapping, and other processing steps, thus shortening the parsing time, improving parsing efficiency, and reducing power consumption.

[0039] Figure 4 A flowchart of an information frame parsing method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0040] In step 410, an information frame is received. The information frame includes sequence code information, wherein the sequence code information includes a mapping table corresponding to multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses. For example, after the transmitting device sends the information frame, the terminal device receives the information frame.

[0041] In step 420, the presence of preamble information is detected in the information frame. For example, the terminal device detects whether preamble information exists in the information frame.

[0042] In step 430, when a preamble is detected in the information frame, the sequence code is decoded to determine the address of the device itself, thereby waking up the terminal device and notifying the transmitting device that the terminal device is in working state.

[0043] In some embodiments, the terminal device detects multiple sequence codes from a mapping table, determines the relationship between the code elements in each sequence code according to a preset change rule, and determines the address of the device itself according to the relationship between the code elements in each sequence code.

[0044] In step 440, a frame start character is checked in the information frame. For example, after determining that the currently resolved device address is correct, the terminal device checks the information frame for a frame start character to confirm whether there is any additional payload information.

[0045] In step 450, if a start-of-frame (FOB) character is present, the payload information is decoded based on the FOB character until the end-of-frame (NOT) character is received. For example, the terminal device completes the parsing of the entire payload information by performing a series of operations, such as decoding and verifying the payload information based on the FOB character, until the end-of-frame (NOT) character is received.

[0046] In some embodiments, the payload information includes payload symbols, each symbol of the payload information is demodulated, the absolute value of each decoded code is decoded, and subsequent processing operations such as CRC check, whitening, interleaving, and Gray mapping are performed.

[0047] The following example, using a bandwidth of 125kbps, a spreading factor of 9, and a 12-symbol preamble to transmit one byte of payload information, compares the transmission time of a traditional frame structure and the frame structure of this embodiment (e.g., the second information frame 300). Because the device address is transmitted within the payload information in the traditional frame structure, and a series of complex operations such as encoding and interleaving are required, the number of symbols to be transmitted increases. For one byte of payload, at a code rate of 4 / 5, transmission requires 8 symbols: 2 for the synchronization word, 2.25 for the start-of-frame symbol, and 8 for the frame header. The transmission time for one symbol is: As shown in Table 1 below, comparing traditional information frames with frame headers, traditional information frames without frame headers, and information frames of this disclosure, the length of information frames of this disclosure is significantly reduced, and the transmission time (ms) at a bandwidth of 125k is significantly reduced.

[0048] Table 1

[0049] Figure 5 Simulation comparison graphs of packet error rates according to some embodiments of this disclosure are shown. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the horizontal axis represents the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and the vertical axis represents the packet error rate (PER). PER (Packet Error Rate) is the ratio of the number of erroneous packets to the total number of packets transmitted during data transmission; it is an important indicator of network transmission reliability. A higher bit error rate leads to a higher packet error rate because if a bit in a data packet is incorrect, the entire packet may be discarded. Figure 5 As shown, the red curve represents the signal-to-noise ratio change of PER during transmission of the traditional frame structure, while the blue curve represents the signal-to-noise ratio change of PER during transmission of the frame structure of this disclosure. The blue curve becomes 0 at a signal-to-noise ratio of -13, indicating that the frame structure of this disclosure generates a lower packet error rate and better performance during transmission.

[0050] Embodiments of this disclosure also provide corresponding apparatus for implementing the above methods or processes. Figure 6 A block diagram schematic of an information frame parsing apparatus according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, the device 600 includes: an information frame receiving module 610, configured to receive information frames, the information frames including sequence code information, wherein the sequence code information includes a mapping table of multiple sequence codes and multiple device addresses; and a sequence code information decoding module 620, configured to decode the sequence code information to determine the address of the device itself when a preamble information is detected in the information frame.

[0052] In some embodiments, each sequence code in the mapping table includes multiple code elements, which are arranged according to a preset change rule. Different sequence codes correspond to different preset change rules. The sequence code information decoding module 620 is also configured to detect multiple sequence codes from the mapping table. For each sequence code, the relationship between the code elements in the sequence code is determined according to the preset change rule. The address of the device itself is determined according to the relationship between the code elements in each sequence code.

[0053] In some embodiments, the apparatus 600 further includes: a payload information parsing module, configured to search for whether a frame start character exists in the information frame; if a frame start character exists, to decode the payload information based on the frame start character until a frame end character is received.

[0054] In some embodiments, the payload information parsing module is further configured to demodulate each symbol of the payload information and decode the absolute value of each decoded code.
