Abstract

A method for managing a body device includes obtaining, by a mobile personal station, an identifier of a body device; obtaining, by the mobile personal station according to the identifier of the body device, a communication mode supported by the body device; obtaining, by the mobile personal station, a body parameter and a location parameter that are of a user that carries the body device; and setting, by the mobile personal station, the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A method for managing a body device, performed by a mobile personal station, wherein the method comprises:
obtaining an identifier of the body device; obtaining, according to the identifier of the body device, a communication mode supported by the body device; obtaining a body parameter and a location parameter of a user that carries the body device; and setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein before setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device, the method further comprises:
determining a communication priority of the body device according to the communication mode supported by the body device; and obtaining an ambient parameter of the user that carries the body device, wherein setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device comprises setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, the ambient parameter, and the communication priority.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein after setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device, the method further comprises:
obtaining data sent by the body device; identifying an event type of the data; performing matching between the event type of the data and a preset event; and processing the data and sending an alert in a preset manner according to a processing result when the event type of the data successfully matches a preset event.

4 . The method of claim 3 , further comprising:
obtaining a data reporting solution, wherein the data reporting solution indicates whether to report after-preprocessing data or report before-preprocessing data to an information center when the event type of the data does not match the preset event; and either sending the before-preprocessing data to the information center when the data reporting solution indicates reporting the before-preprocessing data to the information center such that the information center processes the reported before-preprocessing data; or preprocessing the data and sending the after-preprocessing data to the information center when the data reporting solution indicates reporting the after-preprocessing data to the information center such that the information center further processes the reported after-preprocessing data.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein after obtaining the data reporting solution, the method further comprises obtaining a network status of a network on which the mobile personal station is located, and wherein sending the before-preprocessing data to the information center when the data reporting solution indicates reporting the before-preprocessing data to the information center such that the information center processes the before-preprocessing data comprises sending the before-preprocessing data to the information center when the data reporting solution indicates reporting the before-preprocessing data to the information center and when the network status of the network meets a preset network status requirement such that the information center processes the data.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein after setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device, the method further comprises:
obtaining a network topology of a network on which the mobile personal station is located; and optimizing the network on which the mobile personal station is located, according to communication modes supported by body devices on the network on which the mobile personal station is located, a preset optimization algorithm, and the network topology.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein after setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device, the method further comprises:
detecting whether there is another mobile personal station within a preset range; and establishing a connection to the other mobile personal station and sending data received by the mobile personal station to the other mobile personal station when the other mobile personal station is detected such that the other mobile personal station manages, when the mobile personal station runs out of power, the body device according to the data sent by the mobile personal station.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein after setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device, the method further comprises:
determining, according to the body parameter, a unique recognizable characteristic of the user that carries the mobile personal station; establishing a security authentication manner with a gateway according to the unique recognizable characteristic of the user; collecting a physiological characteristic of the user within a preset time using the body device; obtaining a collection result; and interacting with the gateway according to the collection result and the security authentication manner to perform identity authentication on the user.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein after setting the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and the communication mode supported by the body device, the method further comprises:
detecting strength of a radio signal of the body device; determining a distance between the body device and the mobile personal station according to the strength of the radio signal of the body device; and sending, in a preset manner, an alert to the user that carries the mobile personal station when the distance is greater than a preset value.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein before obtaining the identifier of the body device, the method further comprises:
receiving a connection request sent by the body device, wherein the connection request comprises the identifier of the body device; detecting whether the identifier of the body device has already been stored; and establishing a connection to the body device when the identifier of the body device has already been stored, wherein obtaining the identifier of the body device comprises obtaining the identifier of the body device that has been connected.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the connection request further comprises a parameter of the body device, and wherein after detecting whether the identifier of the body device has already been stored, the method further comprises:
checking whether the identifier of the body device is valid when the identifier of the body device has not yet been stored; and establishing a connection to the body device, storing the identifier of the body device, and updating a body device list according to the parameter of the body device when the identifier of the body device is valid.

12 . A mobile personal station for managing a body device, comprising:
a memory comprising instructions; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to configure the mobile personal station to: obtain an identifier of the body device; obtain, according to the identifier of the body device, a communication mode supported by the body device; obtain a body parameter and a location parameter of a user that carries the body device; and set the body device according to the body parameter, the location parameter, and
