[0002] The rapid development of modern communication technologies has greatly improved the coverage and stability of mobile communications. However, both 4G and 5G communications rely on communication base stations for operation. As key nodes in mobile communication networks, communication base stations are responsible for connecting terminal devices to the core network. Therefore, to achieve 4G / 5G communication, mobile devices must be within the signal coverage area of ​​a base station and successfully establish a connection.

[0003] However, in underground spaces, due to the limitations of the physical environment, signal attenuation and obstacles make it difficult for traditional base station signals to penetrate effectively, resulting in a significant deficiency in the communication capabilities of existing base station signal communication methods in underground spaces.

[0030] In underground environments, such as emergency rescue or construction scenarios, the enclosed and complex nature of underground spaces necessitates a communication system capable of rapidly establishing an effective communication link within a certain range after rescue personnel arrive at the scene. Furthermore, the system must be able to flexibly relocate its coverage area as the rescue operation progresses to ensure smooth communication among rescue personnel. To address this technical challenge, this application provides a rapidly deployable mobile communication device.

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, this application provides a rapidly deployable mobile communication device, including a mobile host 1 and a cable retractor 2. The cable retractor stores a smart cable 3 that can be connected to the mobile host, wherein at least one end of the smart cable 3 can freely extend and retract from the cable retractor, allowing the end of the smart cable to extend into the space to be tested. Alternatively, with the mobile host 1 fixed, the cable retractor 2 can be moved towards the space to be tested, thus allowing the smart cable 3 to be laid into the space to be tested and connected to the mobile host 1. In this embodiment, the space to be tested is defined as an underground space for description.

[0032] This application provides a rapidly deployable mobile communication device that also includes a movable support platform, which can move under external force or its own power. For example, the support platform is equipped with rollers at its bottom, allowing movement via external human or mechanical force. Alternatively, the support platform may be equipped with rollers or tracks at its bottom, using its own power unit to provide the power source for movement.

[0033] The mobile host includes a built-in power supply and an industrial control computer mounted on a carrier platform. The built-in power supply provides power to the mobile communication device, and the industrial control computer implements the communication functions of the mobile communication device. In this embodiment, the mobile host is mounted on the carrier platform, and during the rapid deployment of the mobile communication device, the mobile host is rapidly deployed by moving the carrier platform. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the smart cable 3 includes a signal line 31 and a first Internet of Things (IoT) chip 32. Multiple communication nodes are set on the signal line 31, and the first IoT chip 32 is set inside each communication node.

[0034] In practical applications, personnel entering underground spaces carry terminal devices. These devices contain a second IoT chip that can communicate with the first IoT chip 32. Through the establishment of a communication network between the smart cable 3 and the mobile host 1, the terminal devices can communicate with each other, thus providing network communication support for the underground space. Furthermore, through the mobile host 1 and the cable retractor 2 storing the smart cable 3, rapid deployment of the communication network is possible in complex underground spaces.

[0035] In this embodiment, the carrier platform includes a mobile platform and a housing disposed on the mobile platform; the built-in power supply and industrial control computer are disposed on the mobile platform and located within the housing. For example, the built-in power supply and industrial control computer can be integrated into one housing while ensuring the compactness of the components within the housing, thus ensuring the portability and ease of use of the mobile host. Alternatively, the built-in power supply and industrial control computer can be disposed in different housings, and a reasonable layout can be adopted according to the size of the different housings to ensure the portability and ease of use of the mobile host.

[0036] In practical applications, the number and size of the housing can be designed according to the size of the device. While ensuring the performance of the mobile host, the goal is to minimize the size of the mobile host design and simplify the housing.

[0037] To facilitate the use of the mobile host in complex underground environments, in this embodiment, the power on / off buttons for the built-in power supply and / or industrial control computer are located on the exterior of the housing. This allows for quick startup of the mobile host via the external power button.

[0038] In the embodiments of this application, the communication range of the communication node is generally 20 meters. In order to ensure the signal strength within the communication range of the smart cable 3 and to ensure signal stability, in some examples, the communication nodes are set at intervals of 3-5 meters.

[0039] In some examples, the smart cable 3 also includes a power cord 33 connected to a built-in power supply, and a signal line 31 connected to an industrial computer. The industrial computer controls the built-in power supply to power the power cord 33 and manages and collects data from the signal line.

[0040] The built-in power supply uses a high-performance 24V lithium battery to provide stable and long-lasting power support. The industrial computer can have a built-in storage disk and a controller with computing capabilities. The storage disk provides sufficient disk space, and the controller manages the communication interface and data collection.

[0041] In this embodiment, both the power cable 33 and the signal cable 31 are two in number, meaning the smart cable is a four-core cable, and the smart cable connects to the mobile host via a four-core aviation connector. Two cores of the four-core aviation connector are used to connect the power cable 33, meaning two cores are electrically connected to the built-in power supply; the other two cores are used to connect the signal cable 31, which supports the 485 communication protocol, meaning the other two cores are used for communication with the industrial control computer.

[0042] By setting a four-core aviation plug interface between the mobile host 1 and the smart cable 3, a plug-and-play quick connection is achieved, eliminating the need for complex interface configuration on the mobile host 1. This ensures that the communication network established by the smart cable 3 can be quickly put into use in emergency situations. This not only simplifies the deployment process of mobile communication devices but also enhances the reliability and response speed of the communication network, facilitating rapid deployment and stable communication in the space under test.

[0043] The power cable 33 and signal cable 31 are covered with an insulation layer, the thickness of which is one-quarter of the diameter of the smart cable 3. This means that during the production of the smart cable 3, the extrusion thickness of the insulation material is reduced, thereby reducing the diameter and weight of the smart cable 3. This lightweight design significantly reduces the cable's weight, making it not only easier to carry but also improving operational flexibility during temporary deployment. The insulation layer is made of polyvinyl chloride, which makes the smart cable 3 easier to bend and store, facilitating its placement inside the cable coiler 2.

[0044] In some examples, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cable retractor 2 includes a housing 21 and a spool 22. Both ends of the spool 22 are connected to the pivot of the housing 21, meaning that the spool 22 can rotate within the housing 21. The diameter of the spool 22 can be determined according to actual conditions. For example, in this embodiment, the diameter of the spool 22 is 30cm-40cm.

[0045] Furthermore, when the smart cable 3 is stored using the spool 22, it is wound around the spool and stored in a movable box 21. During deployment, simply pulling the smart cable 3 allows for quick installation; during retrieval, rotating the spool 22 retracts the cable into the box. This greatly simplifies on-site operations and ensures the neat storage and protection of the smart cable 3.

[0046] The housing 21 is provided with at least one cable outlet 211, which is arranged along the axial direction of the spool 22. In this way, by rotating the spool 22, the smart cable 3 can be wound around the spool 22, and the cable outlet 211, which is arranged along the axial direction of the spool 22, facilitates the even distribution of the smart cable 3 along the axial direction of the spool 22.

[0047] The housing 21 can be configured as a movable housing, allowing it to be moved to a predetermined location. During deployment of the smart cable 3, pulling one end of the smart cable 3 enables rapid laying. To facilitate the retrieval of the smart cable 3, a control handle 23 connecting to the spool 22 is provided outside the housing 21. The control handle 23 can rotate the spool 22 in one or both directions, thus retrieving the smart cable 3 onto the spool 22. This facilitates the laying and retrieval of the smart cable 3 and ensures its neat storage and protection. Alternatively, when the control handle 23 can rotate the spool 22 with two separate handles, the smart cable 3 can be extended beyond the housing by combining the control handle 23 with pulling the smart cable, avoiding potential damage to the smart cable 3 that might occur if only pulled.

[0048] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, one end of the smart cable 3 can be freely extended and retracted from the cable retractor 2, allowing the other end of the smart cable 3 to extend through the spool 22. Alternatively, a slip ring can be installed on the spool 22. Alternatively, only one end of the smart cable 3 can be fixed to the spool, and this end remains in the cable retractor 2 during spool rotation. After the smart cable deployment is complete, this end can be pulled out, thus achieving the connection deployment.

[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, both ends of the smart cable 3 are designed to be freely extendable from the cable retractor 2, and a fixing structure 221 can be installed on the spool 22. When storing the smart cable 3, the middle section of the smart cable 3 is attached to the fixing structure 221, and then the spool 22 is rotated so that both ends of the smart cable 3 are simultaneously wound around the spool 22. When deploying the smart cable, both ends of the smart cable 3 can be pulled simultaneously, causing both ends of the smart cable 3 to detach from the spool 22 at the same time. This design improves the speed of storing and deploying the smart cable 3, thereby enabling faster network deployment of mobile communication devices.

[0050] In some examples, to facilitate the deployment of the mobile host, the mobile host is also equipped with a locking roller. During deployment, the locking mechanism of the roller is unlocked, allowing the mobile host to move by rolling. Once the mobile host is in place, the locking mechanism of the roller is locked to fix the mobile host in position.

[0051] This application provides a rapidly deployable mobile communication device, including a mobile host and a cable retractor. The cable retractor stores a smart cable connecting a built-in power supply and an industrial control computer. At least one end of the smart cable can freely extend and retract from the cable retractor to extend the end of the smart cable to the space under test, or, with the support platform fixed in position, the cable retractor can be moved toward the space under test. The smart cable includes a signal line and a first Internet of Things (IoT) chip. Multiple communication nodes are arranged on the signal line, and the first IoT chip is arranged in each communication node.

[0052] In practical applications, personnel entering underground spaces carry terminal devices, which contain a second IoT chip that can communicate with the first IoT chip 32. This allows for rapid deployment of the mobile host by moving the platform. Through the communication service between the smart cable 3 and the mobile host 1, the terminal device can achieve network communication, thus providing network communication support for the underground space under test. Furthermore, through the mobile host 1 and the cable retractor 2 storing the smart cable 3, rapid deployment of a communication network can be achieved in complex underground spaces.

[0053] The above detailed embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this application. It should be understood that the above are merely specific embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made based on the technical solution of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
