Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of lighting fixture positioning management technology, and in particular to a lighting fixture positioning management system and method. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing technological system, positioning technology (represented by UWB) has been widely used in various fields such as power equipment management and personnel monitoring due to its centimeter-level high-precision positioning capability and strong anti-interference characteristics. Meanwhile, communication technologies (such as power line carrier, Bluetooth Mesh, and Thread) have also made significant progress, effectively solving the problem of wireless and wired interconnection of lighting fixtures. Among these, power line carrier technology has become the mainstream choice for industrial and building scenarios because it can reuse power lines and requires no additional wiring.

[0003] However, addressing technology is currently still at the stage of "manual configuration" or "automatic allocation by a single system," and has not yet achieved deep collaboration between "location, address, and management." The most similar existing technologies are two types of "location and communication combined" schemes.

[0004] The first type is a lighting addressing scheme based on power line carrier (representative patent: Power Line Carrier Controlled Light String with Address Code, CN118900481A). Its core design uses power line carrier technology as the communication carrier. The controller loads control signals on the positive / negative terminals of the power line, and the LED sub-strings have built-in address-enabled driver chips arranged in address modulo M order, thus achieving address identification and control of the lighting fixtures via the power line. This scheme reuses power lines to transmit address signals, requiring no additional wiring, and is suitable for batch control of string lighting fixtures, offering a certain cost advantage. However, it lacks positioning functionality, relying solely on address codes for control without incorporating positioning technology, thus failing to obtain the physical location of the lighting fixtures and exhibiting a "disconnect between address and location" problem. The addressing logic is simplistic, with address allocation depending on the physical arrangement of the lighting fixtures, making flexible adjustments impossible, and lacking automatic binding and online verification mechanisms. Furthermore, it lacks visual management, supporting only basic address control and lacking "location-address-status" linkage display and bidirectional query functions.

[0005] The second type is a home network system where UWB and power line carrier coexist (representative patent: Digital Home Network System Based on Smart Gateway). Its core design integrates a UWB wireless communication module and a PLC power line carrier module into the home gateway. The power line carrier module is used for the home control network (such as appliance control signal transmission), while the UWB module is used for the digital data network (such as multimedia audio and video streaming transmission), enabling independent operation and gateway-level linkage between the two networks. This solution is the first to integrate UWB and power line carrier modules into a single gateway, achieving hardware coexistence of the two technologies and addressing the communication needs of different services in a home setting. However, this solution integrates the UWB and power line carrier modules into the gateway, with the luminaires acting only as passive receiving terminals. It lacks a design of "dual-module integration at the luminaire end + unified control by the main controller"; it lacks an automatic linkage algorithm, with the gateway only enabling the physical coexistence of the two types of modules. It does not have an automatic binding algorithm for "UWB tag ID - location coordinates - power line carrier address," still requiring manual configuration of device addresses and location relationships; its application scenarios and functions differ, targeting home multimedia and appliance control scenarios, failing to focus on "addressing efficiency improvement" and "maintenance visualization" for luminaires, and lacking core functions such as "one-step addressing" and "bidirectional query"; it suffers from insufficient compatibility, requiring dedicated gateway and terminal hardware, making it incompatible with existing LED luminaire power line carrier and UWB modules, resulting in high upgrade costs. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This application provides a lighting fixture positioning management system and method to solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0007] In view of the above, the first aspect of this application provides a lighting fixture positioning management system, the system comprising: It provides a visually interactive management platform, a data processing gateway, and a lighting terminal module; The lighting terminal module includes a control module, a UWB positioning module, a power line carrier module, and a status detection module. The linkage gateway includes a UWB positioning data receiving module and a power line carrier address parsing module. The UWB positioning module communicates with the UWB positioning data receiving module in the linkage gateway via UWB wireless signals, and the UWB positioning data receiving module communicates with the UWB base station. The power line carrier module communicates with the power line carrier address resolution module of the linkage gateway via the power line, and the power line carrier address resolution module communicates with the power line carrier gateway. The lighting terminal module is built into each lighting fixture, and the linkage gateway communicates with the UWB base station. The lighting terminal module sends lighting location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station at preset time intervals. The UWB base station calculates and determines the second coordinate information of the corresponding lighting based on the lighting location signal and uploads it to the linkage gateway. The power line carrier module reads the power line carrier address of each lamp by scanning the power line and uploads it to the linkage gateway; The linkage gateway uses the unique tag ID as the unique key to generate an association table of unique tag ID, second coordinate information, and power line carrier address, and synchronizes it to the management platform.

[0008] Optionally, it also includes: The management platform marks the online status of each lamp on the scene map based on the association table.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes: After the management platform obtains the user's addressing request for several target lights, it sends an addressing instruction to the linkage gateway. The addressing instruction carries a list of unique tag IDs for several target lights. The linkage gateway extracts the corresponding power carrier address from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding command to several target lights through the power line; After storing the power line carrier address, the control module of each target lamp in the lighting terminal module sends a binding signal to the linkage gateway via the power line. The linkage gateway then sends the binding result of each target lamp to the management platform based on the binding information, so that the management platform updates the addressing status of each target lamp.

[0010] Optionally, it also includes: When the online status of a light fixture in the management platform is abnormal, the management platform obtains the user's request to view the address of the abnormal light fixture. The address viewing request carries the unique tag ID of the abnormal light fixture. Based on the address viewing request, the management platform provides the user with the second coordinate information of the abnormal light fixture.

[0011] Optionally, it also includes: When a light fixture is replaced or moved, the management platform updates the online status of the changed light fixture to address mismatch. At the same time, the terminal module of the changed light fixture resends the light fixture location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station at a preset time interval. After the management platform receives the user's request to re-address the changing light fixture, it sends a re-addressing instruction to the linkage gateway. The re-addressing instruction carries the unique tag ID of the changing light fixture. The linkage gateway extracts the power carrier address corresponding to the changing light fixture from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to the changing light fixture through the power line; After storing the power line carrier address, the control module of the luminaire terminal module in the variable luminaire sends a binding signal to the linkage gateway via the power line. The linkage gateway then sends the binding result of the variable luminaire back to the management platform based on the binding information, so that the management platform updates the addressing status and online status of the variable luminaire.

[0012] Optionally, the management platform is also used to record the addressing logs, number of failures, and online rate of each lamp.

[0013] A second aspect of this application provides a lighting fixture positioning management method, applied to the lighting fixture positioning management system described in any one of the first aspects of this application, the method comprising: Step S101: Import the scene map into the management platform and calibrate the first coordinate information of the UWB base station after constructing the positioning coordinate system; Step S102: The lighting terminal module sends lighting location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station at a preset time interval.

Step S103: The power line carrier module reads the power line carrier address of each lamp by scanning the power line and uploads it to the linkage gateway; Step S104: The linkage gateway generates an association table of unique tag ID, second coordinate information, and power line carrier address using the unique tag ID as the unique key, and synchronizes it to the management platform.

[0014] Optionally, after step S103, the method further includes: Step S105: The management platform marks the online status of each lamp in the scene map according to the association table.

[0015] Optionally, after step S103, the method further includes: Step S106: After the management platform obtains the user's addressing request for several target lamps, it sends an addressing instruction to the linkage gateway. The addressing instruction carries a list of unique tag IDs for several target lamps. Step S107: The linkage gateway extracts the corresponding power line carrier address from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to several target lights through the power line; Step S108: After the control modules of each target lamp in the lighting terminal module store the power line carrier address, they send a binding signal to the linkage gateway via the power line. The linkage gateway then sends the binding result of each target lamp to the management platform based on the binding information, so that the management platform updates the addressing status of each target lamp.

[0016] Optionally, after step S108, the method further includes: When a light fixture is replaced or moved, the management platform updates the online status of the changed light fixture to address mismatch. At the same time, the terminal module of the changed light fixture resends the light fixture location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station at a preset time interval. After the management platform receives the user's request to re-address the changing light fixture, it sends a re-addressing instruction to the linkage gateway. The re-addressing instruction carries the unique tag ID of the changing light fixture. The linkage gateway extracts the power carrier address corresponding to the changing light fixture from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to the changing light fixture through the power line; After storing the power line carrier address, the control module of the luminaire terminal module in the variable luminaire sends a binding signal to the linkage gateway via the power line. The linkage gateway then sends the binding result of the variable luminaire back to the management platform based on the binding information, so that the management platform updates the addressing status and online status of the variable luminaire.

[0017] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the embodiments of this application have the following advantages: This application provides a lighting fixture positioning management system and method. In the system, the lighting fixture terminal module integrates a control module, a UWB positioning module, a power line carrier module, and a status detection module. The linkage gateway includes a UWB positioning data receiving module and a power line carrier address parsing module. The UWB positioning module communicates with a UWB base station to obtain the precise location coordinates of the lighting fixture; the power line carrier module transmits the lighting fixture address information via power lines. The linkage gateway associates the location coordinates with the power line carrier address using a unique tag ID as the key and synchronizes it to the management platform. The management platform visually displays the lighting fixture status and supports user addressing requests. The linkage gateway automatically extracts the power line carrier address based on the request and sends a binding command. After storing the address, the lighting fixture terminal sends back a binding signal, and the management platform updates the addressing status, achieving "one-step addressing." Through innovative modular design and collaborative mechanisms, the system solves the problem of insufficient deep collaboration between "positioning-address-management" in existing technologies.

[0019] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0020] For easier understanding, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a system architecture diagram of the lamp positioning management system in the embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 1 As shown, specifically: The system provides a visual interactive management platform 101, a data processing linkage gateway 102, and a lighting terminal module 103. The lighting terminal module includes a control module 301, a UWB positioning module 302, a power line carrier module 303, and a status detection module 304. The linkage gateway 102 includes a UWB positioning data receiving module 201 and a power line carrier address parsing module 202. UWB positioning module 302 communicates with UWB positioning data receiving module 201 in linkage gateway 102 via UWB wireless signal, and UWB positioning data receiving module 201 communicates with UWB base station 105. The power line carrier module 303 is communicatively connected to the power line carrier address resolution module 202 of the linkage gateway 102 via a power line, and the power line carrier address resolution module 202 is communicatively connected to the power line carrier gateway 106. The lighting terminal module 103 is built into each lighting fixture, and the linkage gateway 102 is connected to the UWB base station 105. The lighting terminal module 103 sends lighting location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station 105 at preset time intervals. The UWB base station 105 calculates and determines the second coordinate information of the corresponding lighting fixture based on the lighting location signal and uploads it to the linkage gateway 102. The power line carrier module 303 reads the power line carrier address of each lamp by scanning the power line and uploads it to the linkage gateway 102; The linkage gateway 102 uses the unique tag ID as the unique key to generate an association table of unique tag ID, second coordinate information, and power line carrier address, and synchronizes it to the management platform 101.

[0021] Furthermore, it also includes: The management platform 101 marks the online status of each lamp on the scene map based on the association table.

[0022] Furthermore, it also includes: After the management platform 101 obtains the user's addressing request for several target lamps, it sends an addressing instruction to the linkage gateway 102. The addressing instruction carries a list of unique tag IDs for several target lamps. The linkage gateway 102 extracts the corresponding power carrier address from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to several target lamps through the power line; After storing the power line carrier address, the control module 301 of each target lamp in the lighting terminal module 103 sends a binding signal to the linkage gateway 102 via the power line. The linkage gateway 102 then sends the binding result of each target lamp to the management platform 101 based on the binding information, so that the management platform 101 updates the addressing status of each target lamp.

[0023] Furthermore, it also includes: When the online status of the lights in the management platform 101 is abnormal, the management platform 101 obtains the user's address viewing request for the abnormal lights. The address viewing request carries the unique tag ID of the abnormal lights. Based on the address viewing request, the management platform 101 provides the user with the second coordinate information of the abnormal lighting fixture.

[0024] Furthermore, it also includes: When a lamp is replaced or moved, the management platform 101 updates the online status of the changed lamp to address mismatch. At the same time, the lamp terminal module 103 of the changed lamp resends the lamp location information carrying the unique tag ID to the UWB base station 105 at a preset time interval. After the management platform 101 obtains the user's request to re-address the changing light fixture, it sends a re-addressing instruction to the linkage gateway 102. The re-addressing instruction carries the unique tag ID of the changing light fixture. The linkage gateway 102 extracts the power carrier address corresponding to the changing light fixture from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to the changing light fixture through the power line. After storing the power line carrier address, the control module 301 of the luminaire terminal module 103 in the variable luminaire sends a binding signal to the linkage gateway 102 via the power line. The linkage gateway 102 then sends the binding result of the variable luminaire to the management platform 101 based on the binding information, so that the management platform 101 updates the addressing status and online status of the variable luminaire.

[0025] Furthermore, the management platform 101 is also used to record the addressing logs, number of failures, and online rate of each lamp.

[0026] It should be noted that the management platform 101 features detailed specifications as follows: Visual interactive function: Provides users with an intuitive operation interface, making it convenient for users to view and manage various information of the lamps, such as online status, location coordinates, addressing status, etc.

[0027] Association table synchronization and update: Receive the association table synchronized by the linkage gateway 102, which contains the unique tag ID, second coordinate information, and power line carrier address, and store and update it.

[0028] Online status calibration: Based on the information in the association table, the online status of each lamp is marked on the scene map, so that users can intuitively understand the operation of the lamps.

[0029] Addressing request processing: Receives the user's addressing request for the target light fixture, sends the addressing instruction to the linkage gateway 102, receives the binding result fed back by the linkage gateway 102, and updates the addressing status of the target light fixture.

[0030] Anomaly Handling: When the online status of a lamp is abnormal, the system receives a user's request to view the address of the abnormal lamp and provides the second coordinate information of the abnormal lamp. For lamps that have been replaced or moved, the system updates their online status to address mismatch and sends a re-addressing instruction to the linkage gateway 102 after the user initiates a re-addressing request, and updates the addressing status and online status of the changed lamp.

[0031] Data logging: Records the addressing logs, number of failures, and online rate of each lamp, facilitating data analysis and equipment maintenance for users.

[0032] Contextual examples: Suppose a large shopping mall uses this lighting fixture location management system. Mall managers can clearly see the distribution and online status of each lighting fixture within the mall through the visual interface of management platform 101. When a lighting fixture in a certain area malfunctions, managers can initiate a request to view the fixture's address on the management platform. The system will display the fixture's secondary coordinates, allowing managers to quickly locate the faulty fixture. If it is necessary to address a batch of newly installed lighting fixtures, managers only need to enter a list of unique tag IDs for the target lighting fixtures on the management platform. The system will automatically send an addressing command to the linkage gateway 102. After addressing is completed, managers can view the addressing results on the management platform, and the system will record an addressing log for future reference.

[0033] Detailed description of the functions of the linkage gateway 102: Data reception and parsing: The UWB positioning data receiving module 201 receives the lamp positioning information sent by the UWB positioning module 302 and communicates with the UWB base station 105 to obtain the second coordinate information of the lamp; the power line carrier address parsing module 202 receives the power line carrier address of each lamp uploaded by the power line carrier module 303.

[0034] Association table generation and synchronization: Using the unique tag ID as the unique key, the second coordinate information and the power line carrier address are associated to generate an association table, which is then synchronized to the management platform 101.

[0035] Addressing instruction processing: Receives the addressing instruction sent by the management platform 101, extracts the corresponding power line carrier address from the association table according to the unique tag ID list in the instruction, and sends the address binding instruction to the target lamp through the power line; after receiving the binding signal from the target lamp, it feeds back the binding result to the management platform 101.

[0036] Readdressing instruction processing: Receive the readdressing instruction sent by the management platform 101, extract the power line carrier address corresponding to the changing light fixture from the association table according to the unique tag ID in the instruction, and send the address binding instruction to the changing light fixture through the power line; after receiving the binding signal of the changing light fixture, feed back the binding result of the changing light fixture to the management platform 101.

[0037] Contextual examples: The lighting fixture positioning management system was installed in a factory's production workshop. The linkage gateway 102, as the core device for data processing, is responsible for receiving various data from the lighting fixture terminal module 103. When factory workers need to address a batch of newly installed lighting fixtures, the management platform 101 sends an addressing instruction to the linkage gateway 102. The linkage gateway 102, based on the unique tag ID list in the instruction, finds the corresponding power line carrier address from the association table and then sends an address binding instruction to the target lighting fixture via the power line. After storing the power line carrier address, the control module 301 of the target lighting fixture sends a binding signal back to the linkage gateway 102 via the power line. The linkage gateway 102 then sends the binding result back to the management platform 101, completing the entire addressing process. If the factory replaces or relocates the lighting fixtures, the linkage gateway 102 will re-address the changed lighting fixtures according to the re-addressing instruction sent by the management platform 101, ensuring that the lighting fixture's addressing information matches its actual location.

[0038] UWB positioning data receiving module 201 Detailed description of the function: Location information reception and uploading: Receives lamp location information sent by UWB positioning module 302, communicates with UWB base station 105, and uploads the received location information to linkage gateway 102.

[0039] Contextual examples: In a lighting system for a large parking lot, a UWB positioning data receiving module 201 is installed in the linkage gateway 102. When the UWB positioning module 302 of the lighting terminal module 103 in the parking lot sends lighting fixture positioning information, the UWB positioning data receiving module 201 receives this information and uploads it to the linkage gateway 102. Simultaneously, the UWB positioning data receiving module 201 also maintains communication with the UWB base station 105, sending the received positioning information to the UWB base station 105. The UWB base station 105 calculates the second coordinate information of the lighting fixtures based on this positioning information and uploads the result to the linkage gateway 102. In this way, the linkage gateway 102 can obtain the precise location information of each lighting fixture, providing data support for subsequent lighting fixture management.

[0040] Detailed description of the functions of the power line carrier address resolution module 202: Address information reception and parsing: Receives and parses the power line carrier address information of each lamp uploaded by the power line carrier module 303 in order to generate an association table.

[0041] Contextual examples: In a lighting system of a large shopping mall, a power line carrier address resolution module 202 is installed in the linkage gateway 102. When the power line carrier module 303 of the lighting terminal module 103 in the shopping mall uploads power line carrier address information, the power line carrier address resolution module 202 receives this information and parses it. The resolved address information, along with the unique tag ID and second coordinate information of the lighting fixture, is stored in an association table. In this way, the linkage gateway 102 can quickly find the power line carrier address of each lighting fixture through the association table, realizing precise control and management of the lighting fixtures. For example, when a lighting fixture needs to be repaired or replaced, staff can view the power line carrier address of the lighting fixture through the management platform 101 to quickly locate the location of the lighting fixture, improving work efficiency.

[0042] Detailed description of the functions of lighting terminal module 103: Location information transmission: At preset time intervals, the lamp location information carrying a unique tag ID is sent to the UWB base station 105 through the UWB positioning module 302.

[0043] Power line carrier address reading and uploading: The power line carrier module 303 scans the power lines to read the power line carrier address of each lamp and uploads it to the linkage gateway 102.

[0044] Address Binding and Feedback: After receiving the address binding instruction sent by the linkage gateway 102 via the power line, the control module 301 stores the power line carrier address and then sends the binding signal back to the linkage gateway 102 via the power line.

[0045] Status detection and feedback: The status detection module 304 detects the operating status of the lamps, such as fault detection, and feeds back the detection results to the management platform 101 so that the management platform 101 can update the online status of the lamps.

[0046] Contextual examples: The lighting fixture positioning management system is installed in a large warehouse. Each lighting fixture in the warehouse has a built-in lighting fixture terminal module 103. These lighting fixture terminal modules 103 send positioning information with a unique tag ID to the UWB base station 105 via the UWB positioning module 302 at preset time intervals, so that the UWB base station 105 can calculate the second coordinate information of the lighting fixture. At the same time, the power line carrier module 303 scans the power lines, reads the power line carrier address of the lighting fixture, and uploads this address information to the linkage gateway 102. When the linkage gateway 102 sends an address binding command to the target lighting fixture, the control module 301 of the lighting fixture terminal module 103 receives and stores the power line carrier address, and then feeds back the binding signal to the linkage gateway 102 via the power line. In addition, the status detection module 304 monitors the operating status of the lighting fixture in real time. If a fault is detected in the lighting fixture, the fault information is fed back to the management platform 101, and the management platform 101 updates the online status of the lighting fixture to abnormal, reminding the warehouse management personnel to carry out maintenance in a timely manner.

[0047] Detailed description of the functions of UWB positioning module 302: Location information generation and transmission: Based on the location of the lamp, generate lamp location information carrying a unique tag ID, and communicate with the UWB location data receiving module 201 in the linkage gateway 102 via UWB wireless signal to send the location information to the UWB base station 105.

[0048] Contextual examples: This lighting fixture positioning and management system was installed in a museum exhibition hall. UWB positioning modules 302 are installed on each lighting fixture to determine its precise location within the hall. Upon system startup, the UWB positioning module 302 generates positioning information with a unique tag ID based on the actual location of the fixture and transmits this information to the UWB base station 105 via UWB wireless signals. After receiving this positioning information, the UWB base station 105 calculates the second coordinate information of the fixture and uploads this information to the linkage gateway 102. In this way, the management platform 101 can accurately mark the location of each lighting fixture on the scene map based on this coordinate information, facilitating the management and maintenance of the lighting fixtures by museum staff.

[0049] Detailed description of the functions of power line carrier module 303: Power line carrier address reading and uploading: The power line carrier address of each lamp is read by scanning the power line, and the read address information is uploaded to the power line carrier address parsing module 202 of the linkage gateway 102.

[0050] Contextual examples: In a lighting system of a large office building, a power line carrier module 303 is installed on each lamp. When the system is running, the power line carrier module 303 scans the power lines and reads the power line carrier address of each lamp. This address information is the unique identifier of the lamp in the power line communication network. After reading the address information, the power line carrier module 303 uploads this information to the linkage gateway 102 via the power lines. The power line carrier address parsing module 202 of the linkage gateway 102 parses the received address information and associates it with the lamp's unique tag ID and second coordinate information to generate an association table. In this way, the management platform 101 can understand the power line carrier address of each lamp through the association table, and realize precise control and management of the lamps.

[0051] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the lamp positioning management method in the embodiments of this application, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, specifically: Step S101: Import the scene map into the management platform and calibrate the first coordinate information of the UWB base station after constructing the positioning coordinate system; Step S102: The lighting terminal module sends lighting location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station at a preset time interval. The UWB base station calculates and determines the second coordinate information of the corresponding lighting fixture based on the lighting location signal and uploads it to the linkage gateway. Step S103: The power line carrier module reads the power line carrier address of each lamp by scanning the power line and uploads it to the linkage gateway; Step S104: The linkage gateway generates an association table of unique tag ID, second coordinate information, and power line carrier address using the unique tag ID as the unique key, and synchronizes it to the management platform.

[0052] Furthermore, after step S103, the method further includes: Step S105: The management platform marks the online status of each lamp in the scene map according to the association table.

[0053] Furthermore, after step S103, the method further includes: Step S106: After the management platform obtains the user's addressing request for several target lamps, it sends an addressing instruction to the linkage gateway. The addressing instruction carries a list of unique tag IDs for several target lamps. Step S107: The linkage gateway extracts the corresponding power line carrier address from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to several target lights through the power line; Step S108: After the control modules of each target lamp in the lighting terminal module store the power line carrier address, they send a binding signal to the linkage gateway via the power line. The linkage gateway then sends the binding result of each target lamp to the management platform based on the binding information, so that the management platform updates the addressing status of each target lamp.

[0054] Furthermore, after step S108, the method further includes: When a light fixture is replaced or moved, the management platform updates the online status of the changed light fixture to address mismatch. At the same time, the terminal module of the changed light fixture resends the light fixture location information carrying a unique tag ID to the UWB base station at a preset time interval. After the management platform receives the user's request to re-address the changing light fixture, it sends a re-addressing instruction to the linkage gateway. The re-addressing instruction carries the unique tag ID of the changing light fixture. The linkage gateway extracts the power carrier address corresponding to the changing light fixture from the association table based on the unique tag ID list, and sends the address binding instruction to the changing light fixture through the power line; After storing the power line carrier address, the control module of the luminaire terminal module in the variable luminaire sends a binding signal to the linkage gateway via the power line. The linkage gateway then sends the binding result of the variable luminaire back to the management platform based on the binding information, so that the management platform updates the addressing status and online status of the variable luminaire.

[0055] This application provides a lighting fixture positioning management system and method. In the system, the lighting fixture terminal module integrates a control module, a UWB positioning module, a power line carrier module, and a status detection module. The linkage gateway includes a UWB positioning data receiving module and a power line carrier address parsing module. The UWB positioning module communicates with a UWB base station to obtain the precise location coordinates of the lighting fixture; the power line carrier module transmits the lighting fixture address information via power lines. The linkage gateway associates the location coordinates with the power line carrier address using a unique tag ID as the key and synchronizes it to the management platform. The management platform visually displays the lighting fixture status and supports user addressing requests. The linkage gateway automatically extracts the power line carrier address based on the request and sends a binding command. After storing the address, the lighting fixture terminal sends back a binding signal, and the management platform updates the addressing status, achieving "one-step addressing." Through innovative modular design and collaborative mechanisms, the system solves the problem of insufficient deep collaboration between "positioning-address-management" in existing technologies.
