Method for synchronously updating smart home devices based on Internet of Things

Abstract

The invention provides a method for synchronously updating smart home devices based on the Internet of Things (IOT). According to the method, firstly, a smart home device with a dependency and a smarthome device without a dependency are distinguished, thus different upgrade management methods are performed, a network load and a hardware resource load during a synchronous upgrade process are reduced, and the efficiency of the upgrade is improved. Secondly, update logics are set for the smart home device with the dependency according to different upgrade phases, thus the seamless connection ofthe upgrade process is achieved, and the efficiency of the upgrade is further improved. Finally, multiple synchronous update cycles and modes of updating time start points are set, the pertinence andflexibility of the upgrade are improved, and upgrade requirements under different conditions are satisfied.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of the Internet of Things, and in particular to a method for synchronously updating smart home devices based on the Internet of Things. Background technique [0002] In modern local networks, for example in facilities or production sites - and in particular in home networks, the number of customer premises devices is steadily increasing. This is especially true for the modern connected home. This leads to an ever-increasing complexity of local networks, as more and more functions are embedded in a single device. The increasing complexity and interconnectivity of devices increases the dependencies between these devices in a local network. In the modern connected home, this situation can affect data communication between individual devices. When one of the home devices is running an older system software version than the other home devices, the devices may no longer be able to communicate with eac...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, the above-mentioned method also has many defects. First, although the above-mentioned method proposes a synchronous partial update operation for different smart home network devices, since the network devices that need to be updated have different hardware performances and update data volumes, it will cause problems. The time required for updating each network device is different, resulting in that the updates of different network devices cannot be completely synchronized, and there is also the problem of low update efficiency; in addition, the above method does not work in the process of synchronously updating multiple network devices. Set a specific update strategy, so that the coordinated update of multiple network devices cannot be realized
