Detailed Description
In the following description, numerous technical details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present application. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions claimed in the present application can be implemented without these technical details and with various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
A first embodiment of the present invention relates to a distribution management method of a recyclable logistics apparatus, and fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of the distribution management method of the recyclable logistics apparatus.
Specifically, each of the recyclable logistics appliances distributed in the predetermined area is provided with a wireless tag for broadcasting a wireless signal including at least an identification of the recyclable logistics appliance, wherein the predetermined area includes a plurality of sub-areas, and at least one beacon is preset in each of the sub-areas. The beacon is used to broadcast a wireless signal containing a beacon identification. The server is preset with the corresponding relation between the beacon mark and the sub-area mark. As shown in fig. 1, the distribution management method of the recyclable logistics appliance includes the steps of:
step 101, the mobile terminal cruises according to a preset path and receives wireless signals from the recyclable logistics appliances and the beacons in the cruises.
Then, step 102 is entered, and the mobile terminal binds the beacon identifier and the recyclable logistics appliance identifier in the wireless signal received at the same position in the cruising process and uploads the bound beacon identifier and the recyclable logistics appliance identifier to the server.
The binding in the embodiments of the present application is to establish a correspondence between a beacon identifier and a recyclable logistics appliance identifier, for example, when a mobile terminal receives a wireless signal from a beacon 1, an appliance 1, and an appliance 2 at a location 1, the mobile terminal binds the beacon 1, the appliance 1, and the appliance 2, and establishes a correspondence between the three identifiers (beacon 1, appliance 1, and appliance 2). When the mobile terminal receives the wireless signals of the beacon 2 and the appliance 3 at the position 2, the mobile terminal binds the beacon 2 and the appliance 3 and establishes the corresponding relation of the two identifications (the beacon 2 and the appliance 3).
Then, step 103 is entered, the server establishes a correspondence between the identifier of the recyclable logistics appliance and the identifier of the sub-area according to the bound beacon identifier and identifier of the recyclable logistics appliance, and the correspondence between the beacon identifier and the identifier of the sub-area, so as to obtain the distribution of the recyclable logistics appliance on the sub-area.
It will be appreciated that the predetermined area need not be a large area connected together, but may simply be a collection of sub-areas, which may be adjacent or spaced apart.
This embodiment can realize the distribution management of long-range a plurality of regional circulations commodity circulation utensil in on a large scale through the mobile terminal that can self-define the route of cruising, but the regional position that automatic detection and analysis circulations commodity circulation utensil were located, greatly reduced the work load and the time of statistics and check, do not need extra construction assembly, use convenient and application scope is extensive, and passes through the beacon to the location in region and realize, low power dissipation, continuation of the journey is lasting.
A second embodiment of the present invention relates to a distribution management method of a recyclable logistics appliance, and fig. 2 is a schematic view of a scenario application of the distribution management method of the recyclable logistics appliance.
The second embodiment is improved on the basis of the first embodiment, and the main improvement lies in that: the method comprises the steps that a plurality of stopping points are preset in a cruising path, so that the mobile terminal is ensured to sufficiently receive wireless signals from recyclable logistics appliances and beacons in the cruising process; the stay time of the mobile terminal at the stay point is longer than the maximum value of the broadcast period of the wireless tag and the beacon, so that the stay time is longer than the sleep time of the wireless tag and the beacon, the time and the beat are uniform, and the mobile terminal can receive all wireless signals broadcast by the wireless tag and the beacon in the area where the stay point is located. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
a plurality of stop points are preset in a path where the mobile terminal cruises, and the mobile terminal stays at each stop point for a preset time length when crusing.
In addition, it is understood that in other embodiments of the present invention, in addition to the preset stop point, the mobile terminal may automatically determine the stop point. There are many ways to automatically identify the stop point, such as:
in a preferred example, when the strength of a beacon wireless signal received by the mobile terminal at a certain position in the cruising process is greater than a preset threshold value, the position is taken as a stop point; in another preferred embodiment, when the strength of the beacon wireless signal received by the mobile terminal is weakened from strong, the current position is taken as a stop point. Other variations of the choice of the dwell point may be made by those skilled in the art, as long as the dwell point is as close as possible to the beacon position, or to the center of the sub-area.
Preferably, the wireless tags and beacons periodically broadcast wireless signals, and the stay time of the mobile terminal at the stay point is longer than the maximum value of the broadcast period of each wireless tag and beacon.
The preferred scheme is mainly made in consideration that the broadcast periods or the sleep times of the wireless tags and the beacons in the predetermined area are not uniform, the time points of restarting the wireless tags and the beacons from the sleep periods are also uneven, and in order to ensure that the mobile terminal can receive the wireless signals broadcast by all the wireless tags and the beacons in the area where the stop point is located, and ensure that the time beats are uniform, the stay time of the mobile terminal needs to be set to be longer than the maximum value of the broadcast periods of the wireless tags and the beacons.
Preferably, the mobile terminal is an unmanned aerial vehicle, so that cruising of the mobile terminal is automatically realized.
It is understood that the cruising of the mobile terminal may be automatically implemented, as by a drone. In other embodiments of the present invention, the method may be implemented in other ways, such as by an unmanned vehicle, or manually, such as by a person carrying a mobile terminal to move along a predetermined route.
As a preferred example, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a scenario application of a distribution management method of a recyclable logistics appliance. As shown in the figure, the mobile terminal is an unmanned aerial vehicle, a flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle is preset, and a plurality of stop points are preset in the flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle and respectively correspond to different areas, such as an area a, an area B, an area C and an area D. When the unmanned aerial vehicle is cruising, the unmanned aerial vehicle stays at each stopping point for a preset time, for example, when the unmanned aerial vehicle stays at the stopping point corresponding to the area A, the unmanned aerial vehicle can sufficiently receive wireless signals from recyclable logistics appliances and area beacons distributed in the area A; further, the stay time of the unmanned aerial vehicle at the stay point is longer than the maximum value of the total broadcast period of the wireless tags and the beacons in the area, so that the stay time is longer than the sleep time of the wireless tags and the beacons, and the wireless signals broadcast by all the wireless tags and the beacons in the area where the stay point is located can be received. In addition, in the scene application of the distribution management method of the recyclable logistics appliance, the charging device of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be further arranged, and the unmanned aerial vehicle is charged to the charging device after cruising.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a wireless signal collection transmission scenario. As shown, the recyclable logistics appliance and the beacon each broadcast a wireless signal with their own identification; the unmanned aerial vehicle receives wireless signals from the recyclable logistics appliances and the beacon at a stop point on the cruising way, and binds the beacon identification and the recyclable logistics appliance identification so that the recyclable logistics appliances can be positioned relative to the beacon; the unmanned aerial vehicle wireless connection router uploads the information of the recyclable logistics appliances in the detected areas of the beacons to the cloud server through the special router in real time, so that any user can acquire the distribution state of the recyclable logistics appliances.

Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
the beacon in a sub-area is a recyclable logistics appliance with a wireless tag in the sub-area.
It is understood that the beacon and the recyclable logistics appliance have no essential difference in logic, and are both objects for broadcasting wireless signals with their own identities. If the object is known or preset in a certain subregion, the object can be used as a beacon to position other recyclable logistics appliances relative to the beacon. In one example, if the original beacon in a certain sub-area fails due to a failure, the recyclable logistics appliance with the wireless tag previously detected in the sub-area can be set as a new beacon on the server. In another preferred example, if the recyclable logistics appliance newly set as the beacon moves to other sub-areas, the beacon is reselected.
Preferably, in step 102 of "the mobile terminal binds the beacon identifier and the recyclable logistics appliance identifier in the wireless signal received at the same position in the cruising process and uploads the bound beacon identifier and recyclable logistics appliance identifier to the server", the mobile terminal uploads the bound beacon identifier and recyclable logistics appliance identifier to the server in a centralized manner after the cruising process is finished.
In addition, it is understood that in other embodiments of the present invention, the cruise and upload can be performed wirelessly during the cruise.
Whether implemented in software, hardware, firmware, etc., the instruction code may be stored in any type of computer-accessible Memory (e.g., permanent or modifiable, volatile or non-volatile, solid-state or non-solid-state, fixed or removable media, etc.) as well, such as Programmable Array logic (Programmable Array L logic, or "PA L"), Random Access Memory (RAM), Programmable Read-Only Memory (PROM), Read-Only Memory (ROM), Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), magnetic disk, optical disk, Digital Versatile Disk (DVD), etc.
