本发明为一种便携式路由装置及其节能方法,更明确的说,本发明的便携式路由装置及其节能方法提供了一种具有第一节能模式及第二节能模式的便携式路由装置以及其相对应的节能方法。The present invention is a portable routing device and its energy-saving method. More specifically, the portable routing device and its energy-saving method of the present invention provide a portable routing device with a first energy-saving mode and a second energy-saving mode and its corresponding energy saving method.
背景技术 Background technique
路由器(Router,又称路径器或宽频分享器)是一种计算机网络设备,它能将数据包通过一个网络传送至目的地,这个过程称为路由。其中,路由器随着无线传输科技的发展进一步发展成无线网络路由器,其为一种用来连系有线和无线网络的通讯设备,它可以通过Wi-Fi或其他相关无线传输技术收发无线信号来与个人电脑或便携式电脑等具有无线资料传输功能的电子装置进行通讯。然而,考虑到便携式无线路由器的大小过大,造成携带不便,已有厂商针对便携式无线路由器的大小进行轻、小量化设计,使使用者出门在外时均可轻松的使用网络。A router (also known as a router or a broadband sharer) is a computer network device that can transmit data packets to a destination through a network. This process is called routing. Among them, with the development of wireless transmission technology, the router has further developed into a wireless network router, which is a communication device used to connect wired and wireless networks. It can send and receive wireless signals to communicate with Wi-Fi or other related wireless transmission technologies. Electronic devices with wireless data transmission functions such as personal computers or laptops for communication. However, considering that the size of the portable wireless router is too large, which makes it inconvenient to carry, some manufacturers have designed the size of the portable wireless router to be light and small, so that users can easily use the network when they are away from home.
现有的便携式无线路由器仅仅是将无线网络路由器与蜂巢式数据接口相结合,然而,考虑到大多数的便携式无线路由器均可通过连接市电而以外接电源的方式取得电力,因此本领域普遍尚未考虑到便携式无线路由器电力消耗过高的问题,然而,科技日新月异,现有的便携式无线路由器的体积已可压缩并整合于手机或其他电子产品中,以进一步对其他具有无线传输功能的电子装置提供路由的功能,在缺乏外接电源的支持下,便携式无线路由器的耗电量便成为决定其品质优劣的关键。Existing portable wireless routers only combine wireless network routers with cellular data interfaces. However, considering that most portable wireless routers can obtain power by connecting to mains and external power supply, it is generally not yet available in this field. Considering the high power consumption of portable wireless routers, however, with the rapid development of science and technology, the volume of existing portable wireless routers can be compressed and integrated into mobile phones or other electronic products to further provide wireless transmission for other electronic devices. Routing function, without the support of external power supply, the power consumption of portable wireless routers becomes the key to determine its quality.
现有的便携式无线路由器连接的电子装置,无论这些电子装置是处于闲置状态或使用状态,现有的便携式无线路由器均会持续地与电子装置通过持续交换数据的方式保持连接,故此,在电子装置处于闲置状态或即使是电子装置并不需要该路由服务时,现有的便携式无线路由器仍然会持续保持连接以交换数据的方式,使得现有的便携式无线路由器消耗更多的电能。The electronic devices connected to the existing portable wireless routers, no matter whether these electronic devices are idle or in use, the existing portable wireless routers will continue to maintain a connection with the electronic devices by exchanging data continuously. Therefore, in the electronic devices In an idle state or even when the electronic device does not need the routing service, the existing portable wireless router still maintains a connection to exchange data, so that the existing portable wireless router consumes more power.
据此,现有的便携式无线路由器针对电能节省的对应方式,均只存在于整个便携式无线路由器的开关的阶段,即使是最先进的智能型手机中所整合的便携式无线路由器也只有开、关的功能。故此,要如何以最简化以及不影响使用者使用的前提下,减少路由装置不必要的电能消耗,实为该技术领域的技术人员亟欲改善的课题。Accordingly, the existing portable wireless routers only exist in the switching stage of the entire portable wireless router for power saving. Even the portable wireless router integrated in the most advanced smart phone can only be turned on and off. Function. Therefore, how to reduce the unnecessary power consumption of the routing device under the premise of being the most simplified and not affecting the user's use is actually a subject that technicians in this technical field want to improve.

The space has a network terminal A and a network terminal B. The portable routing device includes a routing module and a control module. The routing module is used for selecting a network terminal and sharing the network terminal A to at least one electronic device. The control module is coupled with the routing module. The control module judges the priorities of network A and network B respectively according to a preset condition. If the priority of network B is higher than that of network A, the network A is stopped.

The control module is coupled with the routing module. The control module judges the priorities of the C network terminal and the B network terminal respectively according to a preset condition. If the priority of the B network terminal is higher than that of the C network terminal, the C network terminal is closed.
另外,在实际应用时,待丙网络端被关闭后,控制模块将持续地检测乙网络端以判断乙网络端是否存续,若否,则控制模块将使路由模块重新建立丙网络端,以允许电子装置借助丙网络端对甲网络端进行访问。其中甲网络端与乙网络端的通讯模式不同,而丙网络端与乙网络端的通讯模式相同。In addition, in practical applications, after the C network terminal is closed, the control module will continuously detect the B network terminal to determine whether the B network terminal exists. If not, the control module will make the routing module re-establish the C network terminal to allow The electronic device accesses the network terminal A through the network terminal C. Wherein, the communication modes of the network end A and the network end B are different, and the communication modes of the network end C and the network end B are the same.
另外预设条件包含有一顺序列表,该顺序列表储存有乙网络端及丙网络端的优先程度,其中顺序列表由使用者设定。再者,其中甲网络端及乙网络端系分别属于对应于移动数据通信网络(Mobile Data Network,如LTE)的通讯模式或无线区(局)域网络(Wireless Local Area Network,如802.11)的通讯模式。其中的无线区域网络(WLAN)也可以由无线个人网络(Wireless Personal Area Network,如Bluetooth)所取代。In addition, the default condition includes a sequence list, which stores the priorities of the B network terminal and the C network terminal, wherein the sequence list is set by the user. Furthermore, the A network terminal and the B network terminal belong to the communication mode corresponding to the mobile data communication network (Mobile Data Network, such as LTE) or the communication mode of the Wireless Local Area Network (Wireless Local Area Network, such as 802.11). model. The wireless area network (WLAN) can also be replaced by a wireless personal area network (Wireless Personal Area Network, such as Bluetooth).
本发明的便携式路由装置可以进一步包括一电量感测模块,电量感测模块用以监测一剩余电量,用以于剩余电量低于一阈值时防止一非授权使用者通过丙网络端对甲网络端进行访问。The portable routing device of the present invention may further include a power sensing module, the power sensing module is used to monitor a remaining power, and is used to prevent an unauthorized user from passing through the C network terminal to the A network terminal when the remaining power is lower than a threshold to visit.
另外,本发明的另一方面还公开了一种便携式路由装置的节能方法,其大致上包括步骤S1至步骤S3。步骤S1为根据一预设条件来判断乙网络端的优先程度是否比丙网络端高,若是,则进行步骤S2。步骤S2为关闭丙网络端以使电子装置转而与乙网络端连接。步骤S3为持续地检测乙网络端以判断乙网络端是否存续,若否,则重新建立丙网络端。除此之外,其他细节大致与上述的便携式路由装置的说明相互对应,故将于此省略。In addition, another aspect of the present invention also discloses a method for energy saving of a portable routing device, which generally includes steps S1 to S3. Step S1 is to judge whether the priority of network B is higher than that of network C according to a preset condition, and if so, go to step S2. Step S2 is to close the network terminal C so that the electronic device is connected to the network terminal B instead. Step S3 is to continuously detect the B network terminal to determine whether the B network terminal exists, and if not, re-establish the C network terminal. Apart from that, other details roughly correspond to the description of the above portable routing device, so they will be omitted here.
除此之外,本发明的另一方面在于公开了另一种便携式路由装置,其与一甲网络端耦接以建立一相对应的丙网络端,丙网络端允许一电子装置借助丙网络端对甲网络端进行访问,便携式路由装置包含一统计模块以及一判断模块。统计模块,用于统计一持续时间,持续时间指电子装置于每单位时间中与丙网络端间的流量小于一流量阈值时的时间长度。而判断模块则用于根据一预设条件进行一相对应的控制行为。In addition, another aspect of the present invention is to disclose another portable routing device, which is coupled with a network terminal A to establish a corresponding network terminal C. The network terminal C allows an electronic device to use the network terminal C For accessing the network terminal A, the portable routing device includes a statistical module and a judging module. The statistical module is used for counting a duration, and the duration refers to the time length when the flow between the electronic device and the third network terminal per unit time is less than a flow threshold. The judging module is used for performing a corresponding control action according to a preset condition.
在实际应用时,当预设条件为持续时间大于一第一持续阈值时,其相对应的控制行为则为停止路由装置与甲网络端的数据传输连接。另外,当预设条件为持续时间大于一第二持续阈值时,其相对应的控制行为则为关闭丙网络端。再者,当预设条件为持续时间大于一第二持续阈值时,其相对应的控制行为则为将便携式路由装置切换为一待机模式,当便携式路由装置处于待机模式时,便携式路由装置与甲网络端及电子装置相互独立且不具有数据交换,需要知道的是,上述不具有数据交换中的数据一词仅指用于建立丙网络端或路由网络时所需的数据。举例来说,当上述便携式路由装置为一手提电话时,上述的不具有数据交换的限制不包含其手提电话对外通话或注册时所需的信号。In actual application, when the preset condition is that the duration is greater than a first duration threshold, the corresponding control action is to stop the data transmission connection between the routing device and the network terminal A. In addition, when the preset condition is that the duration is greater than a second duration threshold, the corresponding control action is to shut down the C network terminal. Moreover, when the preset condition is that the duration is greater than a second duration threshold, the corresponding control action is to switch the portable routing device to a standby mode. When the portable routing device is in the standby mode, the portable routing device and a The network terminal and the electronic device are independent of each other and do not have data exchange. It should be known that the term “data without data exchange” mentioned above only refers to the data required for establishing the third network terminal or routing network. For example, when the above-mentioned portable routing device is a mobile phone, the above-mentioned limitation of no data exchange does not include the signal required for the mobile phone to make an external call or register.
另外,本发明的另一方面还公开了一种便携式路由装置的节能方法,其大致上包括步骤R1至步骤R2。步骤R1为统计一持续时间,持续时间是电子装置于每单位时间中与丙网络端间的流量小于一流量阈值时的时间长度。而步骤R2则为根据一预设条件进行一相对应的控制行为。除此之外,其他细节大致与上述的便携式路由装置的说明相互对应,故将于此省略。In addition, another aspect of the present invention also discloses a method for energy saving of a portable routing device, which generally includes steps R1 to R2. Step R1 is to count a duration, which is the length of time when the flow between the electronic device and the third network end per unit time is less than a flow threshold. And step R2 is to perform a corresponding control action according to a preset condition. Apart from that, other details roughly correspond to the description of the above portable routing device, so they will be omitted here.
综合而言,本发明公开了一种便携式路由装置,其具有一第一节能模式以及一第二节能模式。第一节能模式运作原理在于借助使用者的设定来以其他可用的网络端来取代其本身之路由功能,以减少其运作时间进而达到节能的效果。而第二节能模式则是利用多阶段的网络连接控制来避免不必要的路由行为,进而达到节能的效果。In summary, the present invention discloses a portable routing device, which has a first energy-saving mode and a second energy-saving mode. The operating principle of the first energy-saving mode is to replace its own routing function with other available network terminals by using the user's settings, so as to reduce its operation time and achieve energy-saving effects. The second energy-saving mode uses multi-stage network connection control to avoid unnecessary routing behaviors, thereby achieving energy-saving effects.

请参阅图2B,于第二时刻T2时,乙网络端B被开启,电子装置2检测到乙网络端B的信号,故乙网络端B及丙网络端C将同时存在于可用网络端列表中。图中所图示的网络端列表中的网络端B及网络端C分别相对应于乙网络端B及丙网络端C。Please refer to FIG. 2B. At the second time T2, the second network terminal B is turned on, and the
请参阅图2C,在第三时刻T3时,本发明的控制模块20检测到乙网络端B,接着则会根据一预设条件来判断乙网络端B的优先程度是否较丙网络端C高,若是,则控制模块20使路由模块10关闭丙网络端C(路由网络)并一并中断与甲网络端A之连接。由图可见,在丙网络端C被关闭后,电子装置2的可用网络端列表中仅见网络端B而不存在网络端C。电子装置2将自动转接至可用的乙网络端B。同时,路由装置1亦将作为一电子装置与室内无线路由器3所产生的乙网络端B耦接以持续地对乙网络端B的状态进行监控,当乙网络端B中断时,路由装置1中的路由装置将自动地与甲网络端A连接并重新建立丙网络端C(路由网络)以回复至第一时刻时的状态,以重新与电子装置2耦接。据此,使用者可以通过丙网络端C及甲网络端A对因特网进行持续的访问。据此,借助停止对电子装置2提供路由功能,本发明在不影响使用者之前提下达到了省电之效。同时,还请参阅图4,图4图解说明了本发明的另一畴范的便携式路由装置的节能方法的一具体实施例步骤流程图。考虑到其步骤S1至S3与图2A至图2C的说明相互对应,故将不于此赘述。Please refer to FIG. 2C. At the third time T3, the
除此之外,本发明的路由装置1可以更进一步的包含有一电量感测模块30。电量感测模块30用以监测一剩余电量,用以于该剩余电量低于一阈值时防止一非授权使用者通过过丙网络端C对该甲网络端A进行访问。简单来说,当路由装置1当中的储电量低于一阈值时,则路由装置1将把一预先设定的授权名单以外的电子装置2视为非授权使用者,并取消该非授权使用者访问甲网络端A的权限进而减少数据流量以达节能的效果,授权名单可以由使用者自由设定。Besides, the
接着,以下将针对第二节能模式进行说明。再请参阅图1及图3A至图3C,图3A至图3C分别图解说明本发明的第二节能模式为开启时各个时刻的示意图。由图可见,本发明的便携式路由装置1大致地包含有一路由模块10、一统计模块40以及一判断模块50。当第二节能模式为开启时,路由模块10将建立一相对应的丙网络端C以允许一电子装置2借助丙网络端C对甲网络端A进行访问。统计模块40则用于统计一持续时间,持续时间指电子装置2于每单位时间中于丙网络端C访问数据的流量小于一流量阈值时的时间长度。而判断模块50用于根据一预设条件对路由模块10进行一相对应的控制行为。而上述的预设条件及控制行为包含有以下数种状况。第一种状况为预设条件为持续时间大于一第一持续阈值,其相对应的该控制行为则为停止路由装置与该甲网络端A的连接。而第二种方式为预设条件为持续时间大于一第二持续阈值,且其相对应的控制行为为关闭丙网络端C或将路由装置1切换为一待机模式,当路由装置1处于待机模式时,路由装置1与甲网络端A可以有信号连接,然而路由装置1与甲网络端A及电子装置2相互独立且不具有数据交换。Next, the second energy-saving mode will be described below. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C . FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C illustrate schematic views of various moments when the second energy-saving mode of the present invention is turned on. It can be seen from the figure that the
需注意的是,考虑到第二节能模式中所应用的字词与第一节能模式中相类似,故将仅对未见于前文的元件进行说明。另外,上述提及的电子装置2指多个电子装置2中的其中之一,而电子装置2的定义与第一节能模式的说明相同。另外,上述持续时间一词指电子装置2于每单位时间中通过丙网络端C访问数据的流量小于一流量阈值时的时间长度。流量阈值则是指一流量数值,其单位为比特,而第一持续阈值及第二持续阈值指一时间长度,其单位为秒。流量阈值、第一持续阈值及第二持续阈值均可以由使用者自由设定。更明确地说,假设每单位时间被设定为100秒而流量阈值被设为10Kb,则如果电子装置2于100秒内传送的数据包数量小于10Kb,则开始计时,如果其持续的时间长度大于第一持续阈值时,则其被判断为符合上述的预设条件。另外,上述持续时间仅限于连续计时。另外,关闭丙网络端C指停止发出信号以使电子装置2的可用网络端列表中将不存在丙网络端C的相对应信号。It should be noted that, considering that the words used in the second energy-saving mode are similar to those used in the first energy-saving mode, only components not seen above will be described. In addition, the
在对这些用词进行定义后,以下将针对第二节能模式的步骤流程进行详细说明。再请参阅图3A至图3C,图3A至图3C分别图解说明了本发明的第二节能模式为开启时各个时刻的示意图。请参阅图3A,在第四时刻T4时,使用者正在利用一电子装置2通过由本发明所产生的丙网络端C以对甲网络端A进行访问。然而,使用者未对电子装置2进行操作故此电子装置2与路由装置1间的流量趋近于零。After these terms are defined, the steps and flow of the second energy-saving mode will be described in detail below. Please refer to FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C again. FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C respectively illustrate schematic diagrams of various moments when the second energy-saving mode of the present invention is turned on. Please refer to FIG. 3A , at the fourth moment T4, the user is using an
请参阅图3B,于第五时刻T5时,电子装置2与路由装置1间的流量持续低于流量阈值,且其持续时间达到第一持续阈值。在本具体实施例中,其第一持续阈值被设为100秒。于此,当持续时间达到第一持续阈值后,本发明的路由装置1将停止或中断路由装置1与甲网络端A的数据传输连线,以达到节能的效果。此时,虽然路由装置1所产生的丙网络端C依然存在且与电子装置2耦接且由电子装置2的可用网络端列表中将仍然存在丙网络端,然而,电子装置2将无法对甲网络端立即进行访问。此时,若电子装置2对路由装置1要求进行数据的传输,则路由装置1将自动重新与甲网络端A取得数据连接并回复至第四时刻时的状态。Please refer to FIG. 3B , at the fifth moment T5, the traffic between the
请参阅图3C,于第六时刻T6时,持续时间达到第二持续阈值。在本具体实施例中,其第二持续阈值设为200秒。此时,路由装置1将关闭丙网络端C进而停止电子装置2与路由装置1的数据传输连线。此时,丙网络端将不存在于电子装置2的可用网络端列表中。更甚者,路由装置1还可以切换为一待机模式,当路由装置1处于该待机模式时,该路由装置1与该甲网络端A及该电子装置2相互独立且不具有数据交换,同时路由装置1中用于接收数据网络信号的相关模块将予以关闭以达到节能的效果。Please refer to FIG. 3C , at the sixth time T6, the duration reaches the second duration threshold. In this specific embodiment, the second duration threshold is set to 200 seconds. At this time, the
更明确地说,若本发明的路由装置为一手提电话时,使用者可以预先设定一第一持续阈值及一第二持续阈值。当持续时间达到第一持续阈值时,手提电话在不影响其正常通话的前提下切断路由装置1与甲网络端A的数据传输连接。而当持续时间达到第二持续阈值时,再关闭丙网络端C且手提电话的路由功能将自动解除,以节省电能。待使用者需要时,再手动开启路由相关功能即可。More specifically, if the routing device of the present invention is a mobile phone, the user can preset a first persistence threshold and a second persistence threshold. When the duration reaches the first duration threshold, the mobile phone cuts off the data transmission connection between the
同时,亦请参阅图5,图5图解说明了本发明的另一畴范的便携式路由装置的节能方法的一具体实施例步骤流程图。考虑到其步骤R1至R2、R21及R22均与图3A至图3C及其说明相互对应,故将不于此赘述。At the same time, please also refer to FIG. 5 . FIG. 5 illustrates a step-by-step flowchart of a specific embodiment of an energy-saving method for a portable routing device in another category of the present invention. Considering that the steps R1 to R2 , R21 and R22 correspond to FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C and their descriptions, they will not be repeated here.
综合而言,本发明公开了一种便携式路由装置,其具有一第一节能模式以及一第二节能模式。第一节能模式运作原理在于借助使用者的设定来以其他可用的网络端来予以取代其本身的路由功能,以减少其运作时间进而达到节能的效果。而第二节能模式则利用多阶段的网络连接控制来避免不必要的路由行为,进而达到节能的效果。In summary, the present invention discloses a portable routing device, which has a first energy-saving mode and a second energy-saving mode. The operating principle of the first energy-saving mode is to replace its own routing function with other available network terminals by using the user's settings, so as to reduce its operation time and achieve the effect of energy saving. The second energy-saving mode uses multi-stage network connection control to avoid unnecessary routing behaviors, thereby achieving energy-saving effects.
