The other walkie-talkies only act as receivers. In this way, only after this walkie-talkie gives up the right to speak can one of the other walkie-talkies start speaking. In this way, the communication resources that can be used are very limited, and the call efficiency is low. Technical issues

[0051] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in the specification of the application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application.

The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.

[0052] References herein to "embodiments" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0053] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0054] As shown in FIG1 , a flow chart of an embodiment of a walkie-talkie networking method according to the present application is shown. The walkie-talkie networking method includes the following steps:

[0055] Step S100: continuously transmitting time frames to network nodes within the transmission range to announce the network topology and the voice time slot corresponding to each network node in the time frame through the beacon time slot of the time frame, wherein the time frame includes a time-division multiplexed beacon time slot, a voice time slot, and a contention time slot;

[0056] Step S200: receiving a time frame sent by a newly added network node, and obtaining a network access request of the newly added network node through a contention time slot;

[0057] Step S300: Allocate a voice time slot in a time frame to a newly added network node, and update the network topology.

[0058] Specifically, the present application takes one of multiple walkie-talkies as the main coordinator, which continuously transmits time frames to the outside to spread the network topology information and the voice time slots allocated to each walkie-talkie as a network node in the time division multiplexing time frame through the beacon in the time frame, so that the existing network nodes in the network can determine the latest network topology and their own voice time slots in real time.

[0059] The network access request sent by the new network node is obtained by competing for the time slot in the time frame, and the network access application is made in a time period independent of the intercom voice transmission and reception and beacon transmission in the network.

[0060] Based on the new network node's application for network access, the topology is updated and time slots in the time frame are allocated for communication. This solution can independently build a walkie-talkie communication network based on time division multiplexing. Through time division multiplexing, at least two groups of walkie-talkies within the network can communicate simultaneously during the same time period, achieving full-duplex communication. This solution improves the communication efficiency of a group of walkie-talkies.

[0061] Preferably, before step S100, after the intercom is powered on, it first scans nearby to see if there is an already established multi-hop network. If so, it directly applies to join the network as a network node. If not, the intercom acts as the master coordinator to create a new multi-hop intercom network. Network nodes in the network topology and the allocation of voice frames in the time frame are added based on the continuous application of newly added network nodes.

[0062] Furthermore, the time frame further includes a control time slot, and the control time slot is allocated to correspond to a network node. The method further includes:

[0063] Step S400: The control network node transmits a time frame externally, so as to forward the network topology sent by the master coordinator and the control time slot and voice time slot corresponding to each network node in the time frame through the control time slot.

[0064] The full-duplex communication of the intercom network involved in this embodiment is achieved through time-division multiplexing of transmission and reception frames. A time frame is the smallest communication unit in this communication method. Specifically, the time frame is divided into beacon slots, control slots, voice slots, and contention slots. Each time slot corresponds to a signal within a time frame. In this way, information is transmitted according to the function of the time slot, allowing all network nodes in the network to share the link for the duration of a time frame.

[0065] Specifically, a time frame includes one beacon slot Ts, used by the master coordinator to send beacons and control data; several control slots Tc, used by network nodes to relay control data; several voice slots Ta, used by network nodes to send voice data; and one contention slot Tr, used by network nodes to compete for signaling requests such as network access requests, roaming requests, and voice rights requests. The time frame period is based on the processing cycle of the voice processing module.

[0066] Among them, the beacon time slot and the control time slot are used as downlink signaling, including the network topology data and time slot allocation data started to be sent by the main coordinator. The beacon time slot and the control time slot are used to broadcast the control data to the entire network. At the beginning of each time frame period, the main coordinator starts to send. After the network node receives the control signaling of the parent node, it forwards the control signaling through the control time slot corresponding to itself. After the main coordinator and the network node have sent the control data, all network nodes in the network have obtained the latest network control data and synchronized the clock frequency. In the walkie-talkie network recorded in this embodiment, any network node can serve as the father node of other network nodes, as well as the leaf node of other network nodes and the main coordinator according to the network topology.

[0067] The contention time slot is used for uplink signaling, sent from the network node to its parent node. This includes network access applications, roaming, and voice rights applications. Reports can be passed up one level at a time. The parent node will provide signaling feedback in the control time slot of the next time frame cycle. The parent node then sends the signal to the parent node at the next level, also using the contention time slot.

[0068] The DSP processes voice at a speed that limits the number of people who can speak at the same time, and competes for the right to speak by competing for time slots to ensure that calls between network nodes do not affect each other.

[0069] Network nodes need to synchronize to the time frame period based on the master coordinator. The synchronization method is to use the control signaling sent by the parent node to which they are mounted to perform synchronization calibration. If the parent node of the network node is the master coordinator, when the master coordinator sends control data, it is at the starting point of the time frame period. Therefore, the adjacent network nodes can calculate the starting point of the master coordinator's time frame period based on the communication delay, and thus calibrate the local time frame period timer to achieve synchronization with the network. Network nodes connected to the master coordinator through other network nodes cannot rely on the control signaling of the master coordinator for time frame synchronization. They can only rely on their own parent node for time frame synchronization. The time slot interval between the control time frame of the father node and the beacon plus the communication delay is the calibration value from the starting point of the master coordinator's time frame period. By adjusting the local timer according to this calibration value, local synchronization with the master coordinator's time frame period can be achieved.

[0070] When intercoms within the network need to send or receive voice, voice activity detection is used to dynamically request and release speaking rights, enabling full-duplex intercom functionality for multiple users. Specifically, voice activity is generated by detecting microphone voices. When a user begins speaking, a speaking right request is initiated, and when the user stops speaking, the speaking right is released. Because voice detection is fast, networked users can achieve full-duplex intercom functionality without manual intervention.

[0071] By setting control time slots and forwarding the signaling sent by the coordinator through the control time slots, the walkie-talkie network can be extended to a multi-hop network, and the multi-hop technology can achieve a communication coverage range farther than the communication distance of two walkie-talkies.

[0072] In a multi-hop intercom system network, any network node at any given moment can potentially become a relay node or a leaf node. Relay nodes help forward control and voice data, while leaf nodes only send their own data and receive data from other nodes. The switching between relay nodes and leaf nodes is transparent to users. This solution can significantly expand the scope of intercom networks by forming a multi-hop network.

[0073] Further, referring to FIG2 , the step S200 specifically includes:

[0074] Step S201 controls the network node to receive a time frame sent by a newly added network node, and obtains the network access request of the newly added network node through a contention time slot;

[0075] Step S202 controls the network node to send a time frame to send a network access request of a newly added network node to the parent node of the network node through a contention time slot according to the network topology until the network access request is transmitted to the master coordinator;

[0076] Step S203 controls the network node to receive acceptance feedback through the control time slot corresponding to the father node in the subsequent time frame, and sends acceptance feedback to the leaf node or the newly added network node through the control time slot corresponding to the network node in the subsequent time frame.

[0077] Specifically, the newly added network node detects the walkie-talkie network. During the process of joining the network, it sends a time frame in the form of a broadcast and sends a network access request through a contention time slot. The network node that receives the time frame sent by the newly added network node serves as the father node of the newly added network node. The father node sends a time frame and forwards the network access request of the newly added network node through a contention time slot. The network access request of the newly added network node is forwarded to the main coordinator according to the network topology. The main coordinator sends an acceptance feedback through a beacon time slot. The network node forwards the acceptance feedback to the child node through a control time slot until the acceptance feedback is forwarded to the newly added network node through the control time slot by the father node of the newly added network node. The newly added network node determines to join the network. When the newly added network node does not receive the above-mentioned acceptance feedback, it resubmits a network access request after a certain time interval. This scheme is conducive to the orderly processing of the network access requests of the newly added network nodes, thereby improving the network access efficiency and success rate of the newly added network nodes.

[0078] Furthermore, the method further comprises:

[0079] Step S501: Control the network node to receive a time frame to receive a roaming request sent by another network node through a contention time slot;

[0080] Step S502: Control the network node to send a time frame to send the roaming request to the parent node of the network node through a contention time slot according to the network topology until the roaming request is transmitted to the master coordinator;

[0081] Step S503: The primary coordinator adjusts the network topology according to the roaming request.

[0082] Specifically, by making a roaming request in a competitive time slot, the main controller is controlled to adjust the network topology and update the network topology. This solution is beneficial for network nodes to adjust the network topology when the signal is poor, and the solution improves the reliability of the walkie-talkie network.

[0083] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a walkie-talkie communication method, which adopts the following technical solutions:

[0084] Referring to FIG3 , a walkie-talkie communication method includes:

[0085] Step Sa: receiving the time frame sent by the network node to obtain the speaking right request of the network node through the contention time slot;

[0086] Step Sb: determining a group of network nodes corresponding to the speaking right request according to the topology of the intercom network;

[0087] Step Sc: according to the group of network nodes being in a serviceable state, allowing the speech right request;

[0088] Step Sd: Sending a time frame to reply to the speaking right request via the beacon time slot:

[0089] Step Se: The group of network nodes sequentially transmits and receives time frames to transmit voice through the voice time slot.

[0090] When a network node requests or releases the right to speak during an intercom, it sends a signal to the primary coordinator via a contention slot. If the signal cannot reach the primary coordinator directly, it is forwarded via multiple network nodes acting as relay nodes in the contention slot. The results of these request signals are fed back via control data in the beacon and data slots. The contention slot uses the CSMA / CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) algorithm to allow all nodes other than the primary coordinator to use the same slot.

[0091] Refer to Figures 6 and 7 when multiple nodes conflict in their application for speaking rights. After the intercom 5 sends the signaling in the contention time slot, it will receive the signaling reception feedback contained in the control data sent by its father node intercom 3 in the next time frame period, and determine whether its own signaling is received and forwarded by the father node intercom 3. If no feedback is received, it will randomly wait for several time frames before sending the application signaling again. If the uplink signaling sent in each contention time slot is successfully received by the parent node, its parent node will respond and feedback in the control data in the next time frame period. Network access signaling and roaming signaling are also sent using the signaling of the contention time slot according to this feedback mechanism.

[0092] Wherein the communication between network nodes is realized in the form of broadcasting. When the network node receives the broadcast time frame and determines that the time frame needs to be forwarded by itself through the control time slot, the network node further encapsulates the content of the voice time slot in the received time frame into its own time frame and broadcasts it until the time frame is further forwarded. The method further includes:

[0093] Step Sf: receiving a time frame sent by a network node to obtain a release request of the network node through a contention time slot;

[0094] Step Sg: According to the release request, the corresponding network node is restored to a serviceable state.

[0095] Due to the effects of radios turning on and off, distances between radios, and interference with radio signals, the established network topology may not always meet the needs of network nodes. During this process, the network topology may need to change. For example, when radio 5 detects that radio 3's signal quality is poor and radio 4's is better, it decides to roam to radio 4. During the contention time slot, radio 5 initiates a roaming request to radio 4. Radio 4 receives the request and relays the roaming request signaling to the next-level transit node until it reaches the primary coordinator, radio 1. After radio 1 approves the roaming request, it updates the network topology and time slot allocations and, at the beginning of the next time frame, broadcasts new control data in the beacon time slot. Radio 4 receives the new control data and becomes a transit node. Radio 5 receives the new networking data and determines that its next-level transit node is radio 4.

[0096] Furthermore, because relay nodes typically occupy control and voice time slots for data and voice relay, the master coordinator must allocate bandwidth appropriately based on bandwidth constraints. This also constrains the network's hop count and scale. This is particularly true for voice time slot allocation. Excessive relay nodes will inevitably reduce the number of leaf nodes that can simultaneously speak. Therefore, the master coordinator controls the number of relay nodes based on bandwidth constraints.

[0097] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that all or part of the processes in the above-described method embodiments can be implemented by instructing the relevant hardware through a computer program. The computer program can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium. When executed, the program can include the processes in the above-described method embodiments. The aforementioned storage medium can be a non-volatile storage medium such as a magnetic disk, an optical disk, a read-only memory (ROM), or a random access memory (RAM).

[0098] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowcharts of the accompanying drawings are shown in sequence as indicated by the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless otherwise specified herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least some of the steps in the flowcharts of the accompanying drawings may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages, and these sub-steps or stages are not necessarily executed at the same time, but can be executed at different times, and their execution order is not necessarily sequential, but can be executed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps. Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0099] Further referring to FIG4 , as an implementation of the method shown in FIG1 , the present application provides an embodiment of a walkie-talkie networking device. The device embodiment corresponds to the method embodiment shown in FIG1 , and the device can be specifically applied to various electronic devices.

[0100] A walkie-talkie networking device, comprising:

[0101] Transmitting unit 100: configured to continuously transmit time frames to network nodes within transmission range, so as to announce the network topology and the voice time slot corresponding to each network node in the time frame through the beacon time slot of the time frame, wherein the time frame includes a time-division multiplexed beacon time slot, a voice time slot, and a contention time slot;

[0102] Receiving unit 200: configured to receive a time frame sent by a newly added network node, so as to obtain a network access request of the newly added network node through a contention time slot;

[0103] The adjustment and allocation unit 300 allocates voice time slots in a time frame to newly added network nodes and updates the network topology.

[0104] Based on the new network node's application for network access, the topology is updated and time slots in the time frame are allocated for communication. This solution can independently build a walkie-talkie communication network based on time division multiplexing. Through time division multiplexing, at least two groups of walkie-talkies within the network can communicate simultaneously during the same time period, achieving full-duplex communication. This solution improves the communication efficiency of a group of walkie-talkies.

[0105] Further referring to FIG5 , as an implementation of the method shown in FIG2 , the present application provides an embodiment of a walkie-talkie networking device. This device embodiment corresponds to the method embodiment shown in FIG2 , and the device can be specifically applied to various electronic devices.

[0110] The transmission unit 800 is configured to sequentially send and receive time frames through the group of network nodes to transmit voice through the voice time slot.

[0111] When a network node requests or releases the right to speak during an intercom, it sends a signal to the primary coordinator via a contention slot. If the signal cannot reach the primary coordinator directly, it is forwarded via multiple network nodes acting as relay nodes in the contention slot. The results of these request signals are fed back via control data in the beacon and data slots. The contention slot uses the CSMA / CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) algorithm to allow all nodes other than the primary coordinator to use the same slot.
