Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of communication of the Internet of things, in particular to a high-efficiency feedback confirmation method suitable for LoRa transmission.

Background

loRa is a comparatively extensive long distance of using, low-power consumption wireless communication technique at present, and it is through adopting spread spectrum technique, shows the sensitivity that promotes signal reception to realize long distance transmission, the wide application is in thing networking communication technology field. However, due to the adoption of the spread spectrum technology, the data transmission rate of LoRa is relatively low, and in general, the larger the spreading factor, the higher the sensitivity, and the lower the transmission rate.

The classical wireless transmission feedback mechanism is simple to implement, in which each packet is transmitted immediately after an ACK (acknowledgement) feedback indicating whether the data transmission is correctly received.

Because the LoRa chip itself does not provide a mechanism for feeding back ACK by hardware, and needs software to complete, the transmission efficiency of LoRa is relatively low, and sending an ACK frame consumes more time, and in order to ensure the sending success rate of the ACK frame, the sending of the ACK frame generally needs to adopt a transmission parameter with higher sensitivity, i.e. a larger spreading factor, which consumes more air interface time, and reduces the transmission efficiency of the whole system, therefore, the main drawbacks of the LoRa transmission adopting the classical scheme can be summarized as follows: when a plurality of data packets are transmitted, a plurality of times of ACK frame transmission are needed, and the air interface time is wasted.

(II) technical scheme

In order to achieve the purpose, the invention provides the following technical scheme:

an efficient feedback confirmation method suitable for LoRa transmission comprises the following steps:

s1: sending a data packet, wherein a sending end sends the data packet;

s2: receiving, wherein after receiving a data packet, a receiving end does not need to immediately feed back ACK, but waits for the indication of the sending end;

s3: transmitting feedback, wherein a transmitting end comprehensively considers characteristics of local cache data and service data, determines whether to continuously transmit the data, if a plurality of data packets need to be transmitted, the transmitting end continuously transmits the data, if ACK feedback needs to be received, a receiving end is indicated in the next data packets to transmit the feedback, a receiving window is opened at the same time, and after the receiving end receives the indication, a Block ACK frame is immediately transmitted;
