Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of this invention provides a method for online monitoring of wild animals based on satellite communication, comprising the following steps: Step 10: The infrared sensor of the infrared image acquisition device sends the detected motion thermal radiation signal to the main controller.

[0024] Step 11: The main controller sends a working command to the camera module of the infrared image acquisition device and obtains the spatiotemporal information of the infrared image acquisition device through the positioning module.

[0025] Step 12: The camera module of the infrared image acquisition device acquires the current visual data.

[0026] Step 13: The main controller merges the spatiotemporal information and the current visual data into raw monitoring data, then identifies and classifies the species in the raw monitoring data, and preprocesses the visual data to obtain optimized data.

[0027] Step 14: The main controller controls the satellite communication module to receive the broadcast satellite ephemeris data, then calculates the transit time window of the next available target communication satellite based on the satellite ephemeris data, and controls the satellite communication module to enter the working state before the transit time window arrives.

[0028] Step 15: Within the transit time window, the main controller will send the optimized data to the available target communication satellites via the satellite communication module.

[0029] Step 16: The received optimized data can be transmitted to the ground gateway station using the target communication satellite.

[0030] Step 17: The ground gateway station sends the received optimization data to the monitoring center server.

[0031] Step 18: The monitoring center server receives and parses the optimization data, processes the optimization data, and obtains the monitoring analysis data.

[0032] Step 19: The mobile terminal acquires the monitoring and analysis data.

[0033] In this embodiment, an online monitoring method utilizing satellite communication and edge computing technologies to achieve real-time data transmission of wildlife monitoring data in environments without public network coverage solves the problem of real-time data transmission for wildlife monitoring in areas without any public network coverage, and improves the accuracy of the geographic location information attached to the monitoring data. Intelligent filtering and processing of monitoring data are implemented at the data acquisition terminal, eliminating invalid data and compressing valid data, greatly saving satellite communication resources; and intelligent power consumption management strategies extend the continuous working time of the equipment in harsh outdoor environments.

[0034] Based on the first aspect of the present invention, the second aspect of the present invention provides a more detailed description of an online monitoring method for wild animals based on satellite communication. The second aspect of the present invention provides an online monitoring method for wild animals based on satellite communication, comprising the following steps: Step S1: Sensing Trigger and Data Acquisition Step 20: The infrared sensor of the infrared image acquisition device sends the detected motion thermal radiation signal within the preset area to the main controller.

[0035] The system continuously monitors motion and thermal signals within a preset area using infrared sensors. When the infrared sensor detects motion and thermal radiation signals, it sends the detected signal to the main controller MCU. The infrared image acquisition device is an infrared sensor camera. Step 21: The main controller sends a working command to the camera module of the infrared image acquisition device, and the camera module of the infrared image acquisition device acquires the current visual data.

[0036] In this step, when the main controller MCU receives the transmitted motion thermal radiation signal, the main controller MCU sends a working command to the camera module. The camera module is then triggered and enters working mode from sleep mode. The main controller MCU controls the camera module to capture images or videos of the scene.

[0037] Step 22: The main controller obtains the spatiotemporal information of the infrared image acquisition device through the positioning module.

[0038] While the camera module is capturing images, the main controller (MCU) acquires precise spatiotemporal information from the GNSS positioning module. This information includes the acquisition time and geographic coordinates with sub-meter accuracy. Sub-meter accuracy refers to measurement precision down to the decimeter, centimeter, or millimeter level, typically indicating a resolution better than 1 meter.

[0039] Step 23: The main controller merges the spatiotemporal information and the current visual data into the raw monitoring data.

[0040] In this step, image / video visual data is bound to corresponding spatiotemporal information to generate raw monitoring data.

[0041] Step S2: Edge-side intelligent data processing and filtering: Step 24: The main controller calls the built-in AI processing unit to identify whether the visual data of the original monitoring data is invalid.

[0042] In this step, a deep learning image recognition algorithm is used to determine whether the captured content is invalid data (such as an empty scene without animals, or a false trigger caused by the swaying of branches and leaves).

[0043] If the data is invalid, the data packet is discarded and the process ends.

[0044] If the image is identified as a valid wildlife image, further species classification processing is performed, and the image is cropped and compressed for optimization. Redundant background is removed during preprocessing, and only the key areas containing the animal are retained to generate optimized visual data to be transmitted. The optimized visual data is then merged with the corresponding spatiotemporal information into optimized data to be transmitted.

[0045] Step S3: Low-power satellite communication scheduling: Step 25: The main controller controls the satellite communication module to receive broadcast satellite ephemeris data.

[0046] In this step, the satellite communication module is in sleep mode when not in use, and enters working mode periodically, for example, twice a week, with each session lasting a preset duration, such as 10 seconds. Pre-set ephemeris data is included during initialization; subsequent updates only require updating the ephemeris data and performing time alignment.

[0047] Step 26: The main controller calculates the transit time window of the next available target communication satellite based on satellite ephemeris data.

[0048] Step 27: The main controller controls the satellite communication module to enter the working state before the transit time window arrives.

[0049] During non-passage periods, the main controller puts the satellite communication module and infrared image acquisition device into a low-power sleep mode. Since the satellite communication module is generally in sleep mode and requires time to start up, a timer or interrupt signal wakes the module from sleep mode before the calculated satellite passage time arrives, preparing for data transmission. After waking up, the satellite communication module can update ephemeris data while transmitting data.

[0050] Step S4: Data is uploaded via satellite link: Step 28: Within the transit time window, the main controller will send the optimized data to the satellite payload of the available target communication satellite via the satellite communication module.

[0051] In this step, the target communication satellite can be a satellite in a low-Earth orbit satellite constellation. Besides optimizing data return within the transit time window, the following three tasks can also be performed: (1) Receive the ephemeris broadcast by the satellite and update the ephemeris data stored locally on the monitoring terminal; (2) Utilize the differential positioning capability of the integrated communication, navigation and remote sensing satellite constellation to update the spatial location of the monitoring terminal (supporting the high-precision location information in the optimized data); (3) Receive the timing service of the Beidou constellation and update the timing information of the monitoring terminal (supporting the time information in the optimized data).

[0052] Step 29: The satellite payload sends the received optimized data to the ground gateway station.

[0053] Step 30: The ground gateway station sends the received optimization data to the monitoring center server.

[0054] Step S5: Remote Data Display and Management Step 31: The monitoring center server receives and parses the stored optimization data, performs data processing on the optimization data, and obtains the monitoring parsing data.

[0055] In this step, the optimized data undergoes statistical analysis and other processing to form a monitoring and analysis database.

[0056] Step 32: The mobile terminal acquires the monitoring and analysis data.

[0057] Users can access the monitoring center server through a web client or mobile application to view monitoring and analysis data in real time, query historical data, and manage species statistics and analysis.

[0058] This embodiment proposes a complete methodology: "Edge-side perception triggering → AI intelligent screening → Low-power satellite scheduling → Remote transmission." This process systematically solves the end-to-end technical challenges of wildlife monitoring data collection and transmission in areas without public networks, rather than focusing solely on improvements to individual devices or modules. Satellite transit prediction and terminal sleep / wake-up mechanisms are deeply integrated into the methodology. The terminal only wakes up when satellites are available, remaining in deep sleep the rest of the time. This significantly reduces overall system power consumption and extends field operation time while maintaining communication capabilities. AI edge computing is used as a necessary pre-processing step for satellite transmission. By using a screening-then-transmission model, the amount of data requiring expensive satellite links is fundamentally reduced, saving costs and improving transmission efficiency. This is a key innovative approach to solving the bottleneck problem of satellite communication resources. The corresponding processing flowchart and system architecture diagram for this embodiment are shown below. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the monitoring terminal includes an infrared sensor camera, an MCU, a GNSS positioning module, and a satellite communication module.

[0059] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: I.

It automatically removes empty photos and invalid animal images, and transmits valid monitoring data after compression, greatly saving satellite communication bandwidth and resources, making the communication process more efficient.
