Fig. 1 shows the circuit diagram of location equipment 100 according to an illustrative embodiment of the invention.
As it is shown in figure 1, location equipment 100 includes satellite positioning unit 110, communication unit 120, electric power Control unit 130, motion sensor 140.Location equipment 100 can be positioned over and various be intended to obtain its position In the article put.Such as, the head of a family may wish to obtain the positional information of child to prevent from wandering away or locating In unsafe conditions, this location equipment 100 then can be positioned in the sole part of child.Current is anti- Bracelet of wandering away is limited due to space and electric power, does not use satellite fix, but only uses GSM network fixed Position.In contrast to this, the space of sole part is much greater, such that it is able to allow to use satellite fix and appearance Receive bigger battery so that accurate, lasting locating and tracking is possibly realized.
Satellite positioning unit 110 is for positioning the position of equipment 100.Typically, satellite positioning unit 110 Being GPS chip, such as model is UBX7020, employing QFN40 ultra-miniature package, 40 pins, Support the engine of positioning such as GPS, GOLNASS, have high sensitivity and quick capture time, help In quickly realizing location.It is of course also possible to be the chip supporting other global position systems such as the such as Big Dipper. Communication unit 120 is for being sent to location-server by the positional information of location equipment 100.Typically, Communication unit 120 is GSM chip or the CDMA chip using SOC design, such as, MTK6260D, it utilizes GPRS link that positional information is sent to location clothes by mobile cellular network Business device, and also dependent instruction can be received from the latter.Location-server can be such as that storage has map Cloud Server, the head of a family can download installation location application, by this application from server obtain position believe The current location ceasing and seeing on map such as child, the place etc. once gone.
The GSM chip of employing SOC design above-mentioned is often by GSM radio frequency unit, Base-Band Processing Unit, memorizer, power discharging device etc. are integrated on a single die, have voice call, send SMS short All basic functions that letter, GRPS data transmission etc. communicate based on GSM network, therefore by extensively It is applied in entry level mobile phone, low cost, highly reliable.But, just because of the merit of this integrated chip Energy is many, and therefore power consumption is higher, if keeping it to power up, even if in the case of not carrying out data transmission also Can consume considerable electric power, the location equipment hence for limited battery capacity forms bottleneck.
Design according to the present invention, it is proposed that utilize power control unit 130 control communication unit 120 with And the electric power of satellite positioning unit 110, it is possible to further routing motion sensor 140 realizes more The Electric control of intelligence.Power control unit 130 is such as realized by single-chip microcomputer.
Location equipment 100 can also include battery 150, charhing unit 160 and the first switching device 170. Charhing unit 160 includes charge integrated circuit 161 and charging indicator light 162, and it can pass through such as USB Charger (not shown) is connected to external power source and is charged.Certainly, battery 150 and charhing unit 160 Can also be positioned at outside location equipment 100.
Below by the operation principle of exemplary description location equipment 100.
Power control unit 130 has normal mode of operation and standby mode.Power control unit 130 1 Directly remain powered up, unless battery electric power exhausts.In the normal mode of operation, power control unit 130 Export the first control signal by the first control output end PWR_CTL and make the first switching device 170 (such as For PMOS) conducting, thus with voltage VBATIN for communication unit 120 and satellite positioning unit 110 Power supply.In most of the cases, power control unit 130 may be in normal mode of operation, such as When location equipment 100 inserts charger or when battery 160 has enough electricity, voltage VBAT triggers Power control unit 130 enters normal mode of operation.Under certain condition, such as arrive certain specific time Between section (such as point at 9 in evening to morning next day 9) or enter certain specific region (such as get home or School), power control unit 130 can enter the standby mode of low-power consumption, now the first switching device 170 turn off, thus communication unit 120 and satellite positioning unit 110 power failure, and this will enter one after a while Step discusses in detail.
Communication unit 120 has normal mode of operation, park mode and power-down mode.At normal Working mould In formula, communication unit 120 is gathered positional information by satellite positioning unit 110 and is incited somebody to action by mobile network Positional information uploads to location-server (not shown).
First power control unit 130 is discussed and is in the situation under normal mode of operation.
In one embodiment, communication unit 120 includes first timer (not shown), the first timing Device set satellite positioning unit 110 and gathers the very first time interval of positional information, such as five minutes.First Intervalometer expire (i.e. through the very first time be spaced) time, the communication unit 120 being under normal mode of operation Satellite positioning unit control signal is sent to satellite positioning unit 110 by control output end VGPS_CTL Open satellite positioning unit 110.In FIG, satellite positioning unit control signal is sent to and satellite The second switch device 180 that positioning unit 110 is connected, this second switch device 180 turns on, thus satellite Positioning unit 110 obtains power supply and starts working.Satellite positioning unit 110 carries out satellite fix and incites somebody to action Positional information is sent to communication unit 120.Communication unit 120 also includes buffer, for storage from satellite The positional information that positioning unit 110 receives.Communication unit 120, with such as SIM, can receive Through positional information being reported immediately location-server by antenna after positional information.After having reported, logical Letter unit 120 can enter the park mode of low-power consumption.Satellite positioning unit 110 is sending position letter Can automatically shut power off after breath, or communication unit 120 can receive from satellite positioning unit 110 To positional information or after positional information is reported location-server, pass through control output end VGPS_CTL sends shutdown signal and closes satellite positioning unit 110.When again passing by between the very first time Every time, communication unit 120 and satellite positioning unit 110 repeat said process, thus gather new position Information.So, satellite positioning unit 110 is closed not carrying out satellite fix when, and Communication unit 120 is in the holding state of low-power consumption need not upload location information when, to save Electric power.Additionally, satellite positioning unit 110, such as model are the GPS chip of UBX7020, can have Having single real-time clock (RTC) power supply, this electric power is provided by telecommunication circuit 120, though communication electricity Road 120 is in a dormant state.Existence due to this RTC power supply, it is ensured that satellite positioning unit every time 110 open after can be with fast search to satellite, positioning time may be and electric at RTC about the 2-3 second Source does not power in the case of (such as telecommunication circuit is fully powered off), and satellite positioning unit 110 is being opened The time that can require over 20 seconds after opening could obtain location.Certainly, satellite positioning unit 110 also may be used Only just to close need not location when rather than to close after location every time.Such as, right Under the scene that the requirement of real-time of positional information is higher, such as when footwear be in the other region of low level security (as Street) time, then satellite positioning unit 110 can be always maintained at open and constantly offer positional information to Communication unit 120.The option closing satellite positioning unit 110 can set in communication unit 120, example As closed immediately after the position data receiving satellite positioning unit 110 every time, by positional information Close after offering location-server, do not close within one period of scheduled time or do not close.This option Communication unit 120 can be set according to occasion, the position such as location equipment 100 by location-server. In addition to satellite positioning unit 110 carries out satellite fix, communication unit 120 can also carry out auxiliary positioning, Such as, A-GPS, it utilizes the base station of mobile network to position.Auxiliary positioning due to by architecture, Therefore precision is not as satellite fix height, but locating speed is fast.Auxiliary positioning coordinates satellite fix to shorten Positioning time, the most such as, can use a satellite fix and repeatedly auxiliary positioning within a period of time. It addition, when location equipment enters specific region (such as the indoor) of satellite fix difficulty, it is possible to use only Auxiliary positioning.The switching of satellite fix and auxiliary positioning can be by communication unit control, and location-server is also Instruction can be used to be controlled by communication unit.
In another embodiment, communication unit 120 can also include second timer (not shown), Second timer sets the second time interval of communication unit 120 upload location information.Second time interval It is spaced more than the very first time, preferably the integral multiple at very first time interval, such as 30 minutes.Second Intervalometer expire (i.e. through the second time interval) time, the position that communication unit 120 will be accumulated in buffer Confidence breath reports server together.So, a plurality of positional information one can be risen by communication unit 120 Give server, such that it is able to save flow and electric power that communication process is consumed.
The very first time is spaced when can dispatch from the factory with the second time interval or user pre-sets.Or Person, very first time interval and the second time interval can also be arranged by server.Such as, when judging location When equipment 100 enters safety zone (such as family or school), server can increase very first time interval With the second time interval, i.e. reduce and gather and the frequency of reporting position information, to save electric power.Work as judgement When location equipment 100 enters the other region of low level security (such as street), when server can reduce first Between interval and the second time interval, i.e. increase and gather and the frequency of reporting position information, with obtain more and The positional information that real-time is higher.
When the second time interval is shorter, such as, the second time interval is within 2 hours, i.e. A positional information is reported, then utilize the above-mentioned two intervalometer of communication unit 120 to enter less than 2 hours Row power consumption control is suitable, and communication unit 120 is in normal mode of operation or park mode.For Two time intervals are longer, such as the threshold value more than 2 hours, then above-mentioned two intervalometer can be by electric power Control unit 130 configures, because the use frequency of communication unit 120 is the lowest in this case, and electric power Control unit 130 can control the first switching device 170 by the first control output end 132 and turn off, from And make communication unit 120 power-off to save electric power.Any instruction cannot be received after communication unit 120 power-off, Now the first and second intervalometers should be arranged in power control unit 130, i.e. power control unit 130 include the first and second intervalometers, are used for controlling sequential, when corresponding intervalometer expires, and electric power control Unit 130 processed controls the first switching device 170 by the first control output end 132 and turns on and perform accordingly The collection of positional information or upload.The first and second intervalometers in communication unit 120 (if having Words) can be deactivated.This mode by communication unit power-off is not suitable for the feelings that the second time interval is shorter Condition, because having bigger electric current when that communication unit starting after a loss of power, if Switch Communication frequently Module can increase power consumption on the contrary.Certainly, power control unit 130 is the most all used to control Sequential is also possible, when communication unit 120 is in the park mode of low-power consumption, and power control unit 130 can pass through the second control output end WAKE_UP to communication unit when corresponding intervalometer expires 120 output the second control signals wakes up communication unit 120 up, perform corresponding positional information collection or on Pass.
Communication unit 120 can first be connected with location-server after waking up up from resting state or start every time Alternately, reporting the current state of oneself, location-server decides whether on communication unit 120 Pass positional information.It is said that in general, the sequencing contro in communication unit 120 and power control unit 130 is adopted By the form of relative time, location equipment may produce time migration after a certain period of use time.One In individual embodiment, location-server can periodically or be used definitely when being connected with communication unit 120 every time In time synchronized communication unit 120 and power control unit 130, with correction time.
In one embodiment, in order to save electric power further, power control unit 130 can also be one Control the first switching device 170 by the first control output end 132 under fixed condition to turn off, so that communication Module 120 and satellite positioning unit 110 power-off.Power control unit 130 oneself enters treating of low-power consumption Machine pattern.The specified conditions entering standby mode such as include, the second time interval as above is longer Situation, after communication unit 120 uploads positional information, distance upload to location-server next time The interval of positional information is longer (such as more than 2 hours), and power control unit 130 can make communication unit 120 and satellite positioning unit 110 power-off.In addition it is also possible to set according to the application scenarios of location equipment 100 These specified conditions fixed.Such as, above-mentioned location equipment 100 being positioned to the scene of sole part, entrance is treated The condition of machine pattern can include arriving certain special time period (such as point at 9 in evening to morning next day 9) Or entering certain specific region, specific region includes the region that level of security is high, such as family or school. In this special time period or specific region, child is likely to take off shoes, therefore need not continue Monitor its position.Power control unit 130 can include standby interval intervalometer, is used for setting this specific Time period.Communication module can receive the instruction arranging standby interval intervalometer from location-server, when arriving When reaching particular moment, power control unit 130 is automatically into standby mode.Or, server can sentenced Send to communication module when disconnected arrival particular moment or location equipment 100 enter specific region and make electric power control Unit 130 processed enters the instruction of standby mode, and communication module receives this instruction, power control unit 130 Hence into standby mode.Communication module can receive from location-server and enter specific about location equipment This prompting is also sent to power management module by the prompting in region, or when location-server determines that location sets Receive about the finger making power control unit enter standby mode from location-server during standby entrance specific region Show.
