Abstract

An aspect of the present disclosure provides a method of transmitting information of a heavy equipment vehicle for construction, in which a plurality of slave vehicles having slave communication equipment mounted thereon, master communication equipment capable of communicating with the slave communication equipment of each slave vehicle or a master vehicle having the master communication equipment mounted thereon, and a server capable of communicating with the master communication equipment are provided, and information of each slave vehicle is transmitted to the server through each piece of the slave communication equipment and the master communication equipment, and control information of the server is transmitted to each slave vehicle through the master communication equipment and each piece of slave communication equipment.

Claims

1. A method of transmitting information of a heavy equipment vehicle for construction, in which a plurality of slave vehicles having slave communication equipment mounted thereon, master communication equipment capable of communicating with the slave communication equipment of each slave vehicle or a master vehicle having the master communication equipment mounted thereon, and a server capable of communicating with the master communication equipment are provided, and information of each slave vehicle is transmitted to the server through each piece of the slave communication equipment and the master communication equipment, and control information of the server is transmitted to each slave vehicle through the master communication equipment and each piece of slave communication equipment, the method comprising:

generating data to be transmitted by the slave vehicle;

identifying whether the master communication equipment is present in the vicinity of the slave vehicle;

transmitting data of the slave vehicle to the master communication equipment by the slave communication equipment when communication between the master communication equipment and the slave communication equipment is available; and

transmitting the data of the slave vehicle to the server by the master communication equipment.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

when an open communication network is present in the vicinity of the slave vehicle, directly transmitting the information of the slave vehicle to the server by the slave communication equipment.

3. A method of transmitting information of a heavy equipment vehicle for construction, in which a plurality of slave vehicles having slave communication equipment mounted thereon, master communication equipment capable of communicating with the slave communication equipment of each slave vehicle or a master vehicle having the master communication equipment mounted thereon, and a server capable of communicating with the master communication equipment are provided, and information of each slave vehicle is transmitted to the server through each piece of the slave communication equipment and the master communication equipment, and control information of the server is transmitted to each slave vehicle through the master communication equipment and each piece of slave communication equipment, the method comprising:

transmitting a data set of a corresponding heavy equipment vehicle for construction to the master communication equipment by the server; and

identifying whether the data set of the corresponding heavy equipment vehicle for construction is received by the master communication equipment.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the data set includes a unique identification number of the corresponding heavy equipment vehicle for construction.

5. The method of claim 3, further comprising:

when an open communication network is present in the vicinity of the corresponding heavy equipment vehicle for construction, directly transmitting the data to the corresponding heavy equipment vehicle for construction without passing through the master communication equipment.

6. The method of claim 3, further comprising:

when data to be transmitted by the server is data to be transmitted to the all of the heavy equipment vehicles for construction, transmitting the data to the master communication equipment by the server; and

identifying whether the data of the all of the heavy equipment vehicles for construction is received by the master communication equipment.
