Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a Meshtastic-based information exchange method, system, terminal, and medium. Background Technology

[0002] Meshtastic is an open-source wireless communication technology based on the LoRa protocol, designed to achieve low-power, long-range communication. Each Meshtastic device can act as a node, sending and receiving messages while relaying messages from other nodes, thereby building a wide-coverage mesh network. However, in existing use cases of Meshtastic devices, since Meshtastic devices often only perform the function of signal transmission and reception, when it is necessary to input the signal to be sent (such as character information for communication and selection of the group to be sent or received), it is necessary to use other external devices (such as external keyboards or mobile phones) to input the signal to be sent. This makes it impossible for users to quickly send and receive signals using a single Meshtastic device, reducing the convenience of using the device.

[0003] Therefore, existing technologies have shortcomings and need to be improved and developed. Summary of the Invention

If a match is found, the matched communication group will be used as the target communication group. If a match fails, a new private communication group is created based on the group identifier information, and this newly created private communication group is identified as the target communication group.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer and more explicit, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0021] Meshtastic is an open-source wireless communication technology based on LoRa functionality and the Mesh protocol, designed to achieve low-power, long-range communication. Each Meshtastic device can act as a node, sending and receiving messages while relaying messages from other nodes, thereby building a wide-coverage mesh network. However, in existing use cases of Meshtastic devices, since Meshtastic devices often only perform the function of signal transmission and reception, when it is necessary to input the signal to be sent (such as character information for communication and selection of the group to be sent or received), it is necessary to use other external devices (such as external keyboards or mobile phones) to input the signal to be sent. This makes it impossible for users to quickly send and receive signals using a single Meshtastic device, reducing the convenience of using the device.

[0022] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a mesh-based information interaction method, system, terminal, and medium. The method includes: scanning a preset frequency band using a mesh-based device and adding network devices currently operating within the preset frequency band to at least one communication group; generating control commands in response to user operations on physical control components on the mesh-based device; and executing corresponding communication operations to the target communication group based on the user intent represented by the control commands. This invention sets up physical control components on the mesh-based device, enabling rapid sending or replying to target communication groups through a single physical control component, simplifying the operation process and achieving rapid signal transmission and reception.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 The information interaction method based on Meshtastic according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps: Step S100: Use a Meshtastic device to scan a preset frequency band and add the networking devices currently in the preset frequency band to at least one communication group.

[0024] Specifically, the Meshtastic device of this invention is an integrated communication device with a built-in outdoor communication module and physical control components. Upon power-on, the device automatically scans within a preset frequency band, searching for and identifying nearby online devices without requiring complex user configuration. Subsequently, the system intelligently adds these devices to one or more communication groups (such as a default public group), achieving a quick and easy network setup experience right out of the box, greatly simplifying the cumbersome network entry process of traditional Mesh networks. The outdoor communication module's hardware functionality is implemented based on a first processor and a second processor. The first processor is a Bluetooth chip (such as model nrf52840), responsible for connecting and exchanging data with external devices such as mobile phones via the Bluetooth protocol; the second processor is an RF chip (such as model SX1262), specifically responsible for connecting to antennas (such as ceramic antennas or dipole antennas) via LoRa function or LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) protocol to achieve long-distance signal transmission and reception and Mesh network communication. The Meshtastic device of this invention can be equipped with an integrated screen for full-function independent operation, or it can be without a screen and instead connect to external devices such as mobile phones as a display terminal. Both forms can effectively support rapid input operations through physical control components, ensuring the wide applicability of the technical solution under different cost and application requirements.

[0025] In one implementation, the method may further include: Use a Meshtastic device to scan the preset frequency band; Verify the validity of the scanned network devices; If a network device fails the validity verification, it will be identified as an invalid node and prevented from joining the communication group; If the network device passes verification, the network device that has passed verification and is currently in the preset frequency band will be added to at least one communication group.

[0026] Specifically, the verification can be a heartbeat signal activity detection. The heartbeat signal activity detection process may include: setting a dynamic monitoring window; counting the number of heartbeat packets received by the device within the monitoring window; if the number of received packets is lower than a preset threshold, the heartbeat signal activity detection is deemed unsuccessful; if the number of received packets is greater than the preset threshold, the heartbeat signal activity detection is deemed successful. This method ensures that all network-connected devices have stable communication capabilities, avoids the waste of invalid data packets spinning in low-bandwidth LoRa networks, and ensures that each user operation is established on a truly reachable communication link, significantly improving the determinism and response efficiency of information interaction in outdoor emergency scenarios.

[0027] Please see Figure 1The information interaction method based on Meshtastic according to the embodiments of the present invention further includes the following steps: Step S200: In response to the user's operation on the physical control components on the Meshtastic device, generate control commands.

[0028] Specifically, the steps for generating control commands include: acquiring a preset control logic library; and mapping user operations on the physical control components of the Meshtastic device to corresponding control commands based on the control logic library. To achieve rapid input, the Meshtastic device has a built-in preset control logic library. This library is essentially a mapping table that associates various operation signals of physical control components (such as joysticks) (e.g., directional tossing, presses of varying durations) with corresponding function control commands. When a user performs an operation, the device processor instantly acquires this control logic library and queries the mapping table based on the detected operation signals to generate precise control commands. This mechanism, through direct hardware-level interaction, significantly reduces operation steps and time, and more effectively ensures extremely high reliability in harsh outdoor environments. It is worth noting that the Meshtastic device of this invention is flexible in form; the physical control component can be any one of a joystick, mechanical button, rotary button, toggle button, or touchscreen button, and its installation location on the Meshtastic device is not limited.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 The information interaction method based on Meshtastic according to the embodiments of the present invention further includes the following steps: Step S300: Execute the corresponding communication operation to the target communication group according to the user intent represented by the control command.

[0030] Specifically, user intent includes actively sending messages and passively replying to messages. The system automatically determines and executes corresponding operations by parsing control commands, thereby achieving intelligent communication management.

[0031] In one implementation, when the user's intention is to actively send a message, the corresponding communication operation includes: According to the control instructions, the corresponding predefined communication information is mapped from the pre-stored information database and retrieved. The predefined communication information is sent to the target communication group pre-selected by the user.

[0032] Specifically, the predefined communication information consists of pre-stored text or graphic information. The text information includes predefined shortcut text, and the graphic information includes emoticon codes. The text information is predefined shortcut text for outdoor scenarios, such as "Lost," "SOS," "HI!", "Get," "Wait," and "Injuried." The graphic information includes emoticon codes, such as " / smell," " / sad," " / wait," " / cry," and " / Thirsty." This information is pre-stored in the device's local database, and each message can be generated by the user through physical control components. When the user needs to initiate communication, no character input is required; only a simple physical action is needed. The system, through mapping, instantly retrieves the corresponding predefined content from the database and sends it to the selected group. This solves the problem of cumbersome operation in the background technology and achieves the goal of rapid communication.

[0033] In one implementation, when the user's intention is to passively reply to the message, performing the corresponding communication operation includes: Determine whether there is group identification information in the group message to be replied to, and determine the target communication group based on the determination result; According to the control command, the corresponding predefined communication information is determined from the pre-stored information database; Send the predefined communication information to the target communication group.

[0034] Specifically, the group identifier can be a channel code. In a passive reply scenario, when a new message is received, the system triggers a notification mechanism to inform the user. The specific form of this notification mechanism depends on the device's hardware configuration: when the Meshtastic device has an integrated display screen, the notification message (such as "New Message" or unread count) will be displayed directly on the device's built-in screen. When the Meshtastic device is used as a communication module without an integrated screen, the notification message will be displayed on the human-computer interaction interface of the connected external display terminal (such as a mobile phone or tablet). The notification can be displayed directly on the main interface of the display screen or on the right side of the chat box; there are no restrictions on this.

[0035] In scenarios such as field operations and emergency rescue, timely communication is crucial. Traditional communication devices require multiple steps to establish communication. In harsh field environments, complex operations are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also prone to errors. This invention establishes a mapping relationship between predefined commonly used communication content and simple physical operations (such as joystick movement and button pressing). Users only need to perform a simple physical action to complete the entire communication process, achieving the goal of rapid communication.

[0036] In one implementation, it is determined whether group identifier information exists in the group message to be replied to, and the target communication group is determined based on the determination result, including: Determine if the group message to be replied to contains group identification information; If group identification information exists, the group identification information and multiple preset group channel codes will be matched according to the group priority, where the priority is that multi-person communication groups are higher than private communication groups. If a match is found, the matched communication group will be used as the target communication group. If a match fails, a new private communication group is created based on the group identifier information, and this newly created private communication group is identified as the target communication group.

[0037] Specifically, when a new message arrives, users can trigger a quick reply through multiple entry points on the interactive interface (such as the "New Message" notification on the main interface, unread messages in public groups, multi-person communication groups, or private communication groups) by operating physical control components (such as long-pressing or short-pressing physical buttons). While responding to this operation, the system automatically parses and matches the group identifier information in the message to determine the target communication group. Then, the interface pops up quick message and emoticon options for the user to choose from, completing one-click sending. Users can bring up a mode selection menu, such as "single screen" or "dual screen," by long-pressing again in the chat window. In "single screen" mode, the interface centrally displays the history and input elements of a single conversation. In "dual screen" mode, users can handle two conversations in parallel (such as friend A and friend B); in this case, if the user clicks on the message bar in friend A's pane to type, friend B's pane will be temporarily replaced by the keyboard; however, if the user long-presses the message bar, the quick reply option will be brought up, keeping both conversation panes visible, thus ensuring the continuity of the multi-tasking context while replying efficiently. The dual-screen mode allows users to monitor and process two conversations in parallel, making it particularly suitable for complex outdoor scenarios involving command and coordination or the need to maintain communication with multiple parties simultaneously. When a match fails, the system can proactively create a new private communication group based on an unknown group identifier. This not only simplifies user operations but also enables the communication network to expand dynamically and organically, adapting to the needs of outdoor team collaboration with changing members.

[0038] In one implementation, determining whether group identifier information exists in the group message to be replied to, and identifying the target communication group based on the determination result, further includes: If no group identifier information exists, the public group will be used as the target communication group.

[0039] Specifically, when a message awaiting a reply lacks valid group identification information (e.g., a basic broadcast signal is received from the network, or message metadata is unexpectedly lost), the system will be unable to associate it with any known private or group channel. To avoid communication failures or lost replies, the system automatically adopts this default rule, setting public groups as the target communication groups.

[0040] In one implementation, the method further includes: Before creating a new private communication group, verify that the source device of the group identification information is a trusted device. The trusted device is a device stored in the Meshtastic device whitelist.

[0041] Specifically, a list of trusted devices (i.e., a whitelist) is pre-installed in the storage of the Meshtastic device. This list records unique identifiers of devices pre-authorized by the user as trusted, such as their device ID, device hardware address, or identity derived from a public key. When a match fails, the system first extracts the identifier of the source device and compares it with the locally stored list of trusted devices. If the identifier exists in the whitelist, it is immediately determined to be a trusted device, verification is successful, and the system automatically creates a new private communication group. If it does not exist, verification fails, and the system can ignore the request or issue a security alert to the user. This mechanism effectively prevents malicious access by unauthorized devices, avoids the illegal occupation of network resources, and also prevents man-in-the-middle attacks by forging device identities, ensuring the reliability of end-to-end communication. Through this mechanism of verification before group creation, the system blocks security risks before the communication link is established, achieving proactive security protection.

[0042] In one implementation, the method further includes: When a new message is received, the Meshtastic device is controlled to provide a notification in a preset notification mode, which includes at least one of vibration at different rhythms and flashing LED lights of different colors. The notification mode is associated with the source group type or message priority of the message.

[0043] Specifically, the core purpose of this prompting mechanism is to enable users to quickly and accurately determine the urgency and approximate source of a message in complex outdoor environments (such as noisy, cold, or when focused on walking) without having to look at the display interface (whether it is the device's built-in screen or a connected external smart terminal), solely through the two most intuitive physical feedbacks: touch and vision. This allows for interference-free communication status awareness and priority processing.

[0044] In addition, the outdoor communication module of this invention also constructs a multi-layered security and reliability guarantee mechanism. At the signal transmission level, link performance is optimized and anti-interference capability is enhanced by adjusting key parameters of LoRa communication (such as spread factor SF, bandwidth BW, and coding rate CR). At the network layer, the basic equipment enables the LoRaWAN network protocol for information security protection, and the equipment uses a unique device ID for node identification and matching to ensure the legitimacy of the communication object. After the signal is received, it must go through key steps such as frequency band identification, ID authentication, and channel judgment before it can be correctly delivered to the corresponding chat window. At the application layer, the system randomly generates a unique channel code for each created channel and uses an encryption key (which can be static or dynamic) to encrypt the communication content to ensure the privacy of chat records. In addition, when connecting to a mobile APP via Bluetooth, a static device verification code is used for identity authentication to prevent unauthorized devices from accessing the network. This complete security design from physical signals to application data jointly ensures the reliability and information security of the communication process.

[0045] The flowchart of the information interaction method of the present invention is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the process begins with the device automatically scanning the network, establishing the foundation for communication. In the active sending path, after parsing the user's intent, the system directly retrieves predefined communication information based on control commands and sends it to the target communication group. This design simplifies the traditional multi-step operation into a single, streamlined process, significantly improving the speed of communication initiation. In the passive reply path, the system employs an identification mechanism. When a user replies to a message, the system matches the target group based on the group identifier information, prioritizing multi-person groups over private groups. This series of complex judgments is automatically completed in the system background; the user only needs to perform simple operations such as long-pressing and selection. This design effectively avoids reply errors that may occur when manually switching chat windows in multitasking or emergency situations, ensuring communication accuracy while simplifying user operations. This design enables the method to provide a more efficient and reliable communication experience in scenarios requiring rapid response.

[0046] In summary, this invention utilizes a Meshtastic device to scan a preset frequency band and adds network devices currently operating within that band to at least one communication group. In response to user operations on the physical control components of the Meshtastic device, control commands are generated. Based on the user intent represented by the control commands, corresponding communication operations are executed towards the target communication group. This invention sets up a physical control component on the Meshtastic device, enabling rapid sending or replying to messages to the target communication group through a single physical control component, simplifying the operation process and achieving rapid signal transmission and reception.

The second processing unit is used to select the matched communication group as the target communication group if a match is successful. The third processing unit is used to create a new private communication group based on the group identification information if the matching fails, and to identify the newly created private communication group as the target communication group.

[0052] In one embodiment, the system further includes: The fourth processing unit is used to select the public group as the target communication group if no group identification information exists.
