All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments herein without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the present application.
It should be noted that, in the WiFi connection method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the execution body may be any terminal or a functional module in the terminal that can implement the WiFi connection method, and the terminal mentioned in the application includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, and the like, where the execution body does not limit the application.
The AP device in the embodiments of the present application may also be referred to as an Access Point (AP) device, or may also be referred to as a radio Access Point or a hot spot. The wireless access point is an access point for a wireless terminal to enter a wired network, and is mainly used for broadband families, inside buildings, inside campuses, inside parks, places needing wireless monitoring such as warehouses and factories, and the like, and the wireless access point can be used for long-distance transmission, and can be used for long-distance transmission, wherein the distance is about 30KM at the most. The AP device acts as a bridge connecting the wired network and the wireless network, and is mainly used to connect the clients together and then access the wireless network to the ethernet. In particular, the AP device may be a network device with a WiFi chip. Alternatively, the AP device may be a device supporting the institute of electrical and electronics engineers (institute ofelectrical and electronics engineers, IEEE) 802.11 family of standards. Fig. 1 is a schematic hardware architecture diagram of a WiFi connection method provided in this embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 1, in a certain network environment, an AP device 120 in the network environment may continuously carry broadcast frames of service set identifiers SSID (Service Set Identifier, service set identifiers) to the outside, and after a terminal a110 scans and discovers a plurality of broadcast frames carrying service set identifiers SSID in the network environment under the condition of starting a WiFi function, the scanned service set identifiers SSID is added to a WiFi hotspot list of the terminal a110, and an AP device 120 corresponding to the service set identifiers SSID is selected from the WiFi hotspot list of the terminal a110 to connect.
The following describes a WiFi connection method according to the embodiments of the present application with reference to fig. 2, and fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of the WiFi connection method provided by the embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 2, including:
in step 201, the terminal monitors network parameters of AP devices corresponding to each AP identifier in the WiFi hotspot list.
Specifically, the network parameter refers to a parameter for characterizing network quality of the AP device, where the network parameter may be a parameter obtained directly or may be a parameter obtained indirectly after a subsequent conversion operation, which is not limited.
The network parameters in this embodiment include, but are not limited to, beacon frame, transmission rate, signal strength, and network latency.
The Beacon frame, i.e. Beacon frame, is periodically sent by the AP device at a certain time interval, so as to tell the existence of the wireless network of the AP device, and in general, when the AP device sends the Beacon frame, the Beacon frame is used to inform the opposite terminal device of what performance the network of the AP device has, such as a transmission rate, a signal strength and a network delay, and in general, the shorter the sending period of the Beacon frame, the better the network quality of the AP device is represented.
The transmission rate, namely, data rate, refers to the Data transmission rate of the physical layer that the AP device can provide when the terminal device uses the AP device to perform network communication, and in general, the larger the transmission rate is, the better the network signal state of the AP device is represented.
The signal strength, i.e., (Received Signal Strength Indication, RSSI) received signal strength indication, which is used to determine link quality, typically the greater the signal strength, the better the network signal state characterizing the AP device, and the more stable the network.
The network delay is PING delay, which means that the test terminal sends out a test packet, receives the test packet and replies the test packet, and the larger the time period is called PING delay, the worse the network quality of the AP equipment is represented.
In practical application, the terminal device may continuously change its position with respect to each AP device, so as to change the network parameters of the AP device connected to the terminal device along with the change of the direction and distance of the terminal device, so that in this embodiment, the network parameters of the AP device are monitored in real time.
In addition, it should be noted that, the network requirement of the terminal device refers to the requirement of the terminal device on each network parameter under the current application scenario, for example, if the current terminal device needs to download a lot of files, the network signal state is better and more beneficial to the terminal device to complete the downloading faster, so the network requirement can be that a higher transmission rate and signal strength are needed, and if the current terminal device is in video call, the network quality is better and more beneficial to the video call of the terminal device not to be interrupted, so the network requirement can be that a smaller network delay is needed.
In some embodiments, the terminal may actively analyze the data characteristics of the transmission in the current network environment, and determine the network requirement of the current terminal according to the analysis result.
For example, the terminal device analyzes each task thread currently running, and when the data transmitted is analyzed to be data generated in real time, or encrypted data, or network link breakage affects a data transmission result, determines that the network demand of the current terminal device is higher than the network signal priority, and when the data transmitted is analyzed to be large-flow data, or data which can be continuously and normally transmitted after the network link breakage, determines that the network demand of the current terminal device is higher than the network signal priority.
In addition, the network requirements in this embodiment may be determined based on other preset determination rules, for example, the network parameter priority selection sub-interface is output in the operation interface of the terminal device, and the current network requirements are determined based on the result selected by the user in the network parameter priority selection sub-interface.
For example, in some embodiments, whether the network requirement set by the user is identified is determined, under the condition that the network requirement set by the user is not identified, the task thread started by the current terminal device is analyzed, and the network requirement is determined according to the analysis result, so that under the condition that the network requirement set by the user is identified, the subsequent switching can be performed to the optimal AP device which is more attached to the user requirement based on the network requirement set by the user, the use sense of the user is further ensured, under the condition that the network requirement set by the user is not identified, the network requirement is determined based on the task thread which is currently started, and therefore, when the network switching is performed subsequently, the switched network can be ensured to be more consistent with the current network application scene, and the experience sense of the user is further improved.
Step 202, the terminal selects a first AP device based on network parameters of each AP device and network requirements of the terminal.
In this step, the first AP device refers to a device with an optimal network state selected according to the network parameters of each AP device under the precondition of the network requirement of the current terminal device.
In this embodiment, the index parameter with a large influence factor may be selected from the network parameters according to the network requirement, for example, in the case that the network requirement is a network with a more stable requirement, the transmission rate and the signal strength are selected from the index parameters such as the beacon frame, the transmission rate, the signal strength, and the network delay as the index parameters with a large influence factor, so that the AP device with an optimal network state is selected based on the two index parameters such as the transmission rate and the signal strength.
In addition, in this embodiment, the AP devices may be ranked in descending order according to multiple index parameters of the network parameters, to obtain the ranking of the AP devices under each index parameter, then the weights of each index parameter are allocated based on the network requirement, and finally the comprehensive ranking of the AP devices is calculated according to the weights of each index parameter and the ranking of the AP devices under each index parameter, so that the AP device with the highest comprehensive ranking is selected as the AP device with the optimal network state.
Further, when calculating the score, the average value of all the values under each index parameter can be calculated first, then all the values under the index parameter are ordered according to the order of magnitude, the difference between the adjacent value intervals is calculated, the average difference between a plurality of differences is calculated, and finally a plurality of score intervals are divided based on the average difference and the average value, so that the score corresponding to each value is determined based on the score intervals.
For ease of understanding, the network latency is represented by the illustration:
under an application scenario, network delays of the AP devices corresponding to the AP identifications in the WiFi hotspot list are respectively: 200ms, 50ms, 400ms, 230ms, 120ms and 300ms, the average value of the 6 values is 217ms, the average difference value of the 6 values is 88ms, the score corresponding to the 217ms is 0 score, the score of the value in the interval of 218ms to 305ms is-1 score, the score of the value in the interval of 129ms to 216ms is 1 score, the score of the value in the interval of 306ms to 393ms is-2 score, the score of the value in the interval of 41ms to 128ms is 2 score, and so on, and are not described in detail herein.
In addition, the rule for selecting the first AP device in this embodiment may be other preset custom rules, which is not limited.
And 203, performing WiFi hot spot switching by the terminal under the condition that the currently connected AP equipment is not the first AP equipment.
For example, in one embodiment, the terminal performs WiFi hotspot switching, where the terminal does not switch back to the AP device after switching from the currently connected AP device to the first AP device.
For example, in one embodiment, the terminal may further switch to the currently connected AP device after the terminal switches from the currently connected AP device to the first AP device to execute the task thread corresponding to the current network requirement.
In this step, when performing WiFi hotspot switching, it may be first determined whether the AP device currently being connected meets the current network requirement of the terminal device, if so, the terminal device may perform switching after performing the task thread, and if not, the network switching may be performed immediately.
For example, in some application scenarios, when the terminal device is playing video, the relationship between the current video playing progress and the video buffering progress is determined, when the video playing progress is smaller than the video buffering progress, it is indicated that the AP device currently being connected meets the current network requirement of the terminal device, then network switching can be performed after the terminal device plays the current video, when the video playing progress is consistent with the video buffering progress, whether a manipulation action of dragging the video progress by the user exists is monitored, if yes, the manipulation action is not satisfied, in addition, whether a video clamping event occurs can be detected, if the video clamping event occurs, the manipulation action is not satisfied, and in this case, network switching can be performed immediately.
Fig. 3 is an interaction schematic diagram of a WiFi connection method provided in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, a WiFi hotspot list currently stored in a terminal a includes a plurality of AP identities corresponding to AP1 devices and AP2 devices … APn devices, where the AP device currently connected to the terminal a is AP1, N AP devices in the WiFi hotspot list periodically send a data packet carrying Beacon frames, data rates, rsisi and ping delays to the terminal a, and a bottom layer system of the terminal a counts Beacon frames, data rates, rsisi and ping delays of each AP device stored in a period, and selects an AP device currently intended to be connected according to a network requirement of the terminal a and the Beacon frames, data rates, rsisi and ping delays of each AP device stored, for example, the AP device currently intended to be connected is an APn device, and the terminal a device is disconnected from the AP1 device and switched to be connected to the APn device.
According to the WiFi connection method, the terminal monitors the network parameters of each AP device in the WiFi hotspot list to conduct AP device selection and hotspot switching, and users do not need to manually switch experiences one by one, so that the WiFi automatic connection flexibility is improved, and user experience is optimized.
In some embodiments, the terminal selects a first AP device based on network parameters of each AP device and network requirements of the terminal, including:
The terminal determines a plurality of index parameters under the network parameters based on the network requirements of the terminal equipment;
and selecting the first AP equipment from the AP equipment based on the index parameters.
For example, after obtaining a plurality of index parameters under the network parameters, an original score of the AP device under each index parameter may be determined according to a preset score determination rule, and then a conversion score under each index parameter is determined based on the original score under each index parameter and the weight of each index parameter, so as to determine a total score of each AP device according to the conversion score.
For example, the preset score judgment rule is that the values under the index parameters of the network parameters of the currently connected AP devices are used as references, that is, the total score of the network parameter matching of the currently connected AP devices is 0, the values under the index parameters of the AP devices are sorted in descending order from top to bottom, when the value ranking of the other AP devices in the WiFi hotspot list is greater than the value of the currently connected AP device, the score of the other AP devices in the WiFi hotspot list is positively assigned, and when the value ranking of the other AP devices in the WiFi hotspot list is less than the value of the currently connected AP device, the score of the other AP devices in the WiFi hotspot list is negatively assigned.
It should be noted that, the weights in this embodiment may be preset weights, and the weights are ordered according to the influence degree of each index parameter on the network requirement, and the preset weights are allocated to each index parameter based on the ordered result.
For the sake of understanding, in this example, the terminal device needs to be networked to perform real-time data interaction, that is, in the current situation, the network quality priority of the terminal device is higher than the network signal priority, the AP device currently being connected by the terminal device is AP1, the network parameters of AP1 are 500ms to send a beacon frame packet, the transmission rate is 100Mbps, the signal strength is-65 dBm, and the network delay is 200ms, the WiFi list in the current period further includes saved AP2 and AP3, where the network parameters of AP2 are 300ms to send a beacon frame packet, the transmission rate is 200Mbps, the signal strength is-70 dBm, the network delay is 50ms, and the network parameters of AP3 are 400ms to send a beacon frame packet, the transmission rate is 100Mbps, the signal strength is-50 dBm, and the network delay is 100ms.
Optionally, the ranks of the three AP devices under each index parameter are first downgraded and ordered, that is, under the beacon frame index, the ranks are respectively: AP2, AP3, AP1, respectively, are: AP2, AP1, AP3, respectively, are: the network delay indexes of the AP2, the AP1 and the AP3 are respectively as follows: AP2, AP3 and AP1.
In the preset rule, the weight of the index parameter with larger influence degree is 0.6, the weight of the index parameter with smaller influence degree is 0.4, the first name is 10 minutes, the second name is 8 minutes …, and so on, because the network quality priority of the terminal equipment is higher than the network signal priority in the current application scene, the weights given to the beacon frame index and the network delay index are both 0.6, the weights given to the transmission rate index and the signal strength index are both 0.4, the total score of the AP1 is 16.4, the total score of the AP2 is 20, the total score of the AP3 is 17.2, and the first AP access point equipment is the AP3.
In some embodiments, the first AP device may also be determined according to a priority order of the plurality of index parameters.
For example, the priority order of the four indexes of the beacon frame, the transmission rate, the signal strength and the network delay of the terminal is as follows from high to low: the transmission rate, the signal strength, the network delay and the beacon frame, when determining the first AP device, the AP device with the fastest transmission rate may be selected as the first AP device for the first time, and if the first AP device does not meet the network requirement of the terminal, the AP device with the fastest signal strength may be selected as the first AP device … for the second time, and so on.
In some embodiments, the network parameters include: network quality parameters and network signal status parameters; the terminal selects the first AP device based on the network parameters of each AP device and the network requirements of the terminal device, including:
the terminal determines network quality based on the network quality parameters of each AP device and determines a network signal state based on the network signal state parameters of each AP device;
and selecting the first AP equipment based on the network quality, the network signal state and the network requirement of the terminal.
In particular, the network quality parameter refers to parameters that affect the quality of the network, such as beacon frames and network delays.
Network signal status parameters refer to parameters that affect the quality of the network signal status, such as transmission rate and signal strength.
For example, the network quality may be determined by performing a score assignment on the value of each network quality parameter, or the network signal state may be determined by performing a score assignment on the value of each network signal state parameter, for example, the network quality may be a score sum of all index values under all network quality parameters, and the network signal state may be a score sum of all index values under all network signal state parameters, which is not limited.
The network requirements of the terminal equipment in some application scenarios can be networks which need to be more stable, such as video call or voice call, and the network requirements of the terminal equipment in some application scenarios can also be networks which need to be faster in network speed, such as transmitting large-flow data files, so that in the embodiment, when the first AP equipment is selected, the first AP equipment is selected according to three indexes of network quality, network signal state and network requirements of the terminal equipment, and therefore the selected first AP equipment can be ensured to be more fit with the requirements of users.
In some embodiments, the selecting the first AP device based on the network quality, the network signal status, and the network requirements of the terminal includes:
under the condition that the network requirement is that the network quality priority is higher than the network signal state priority, the terminal selects the AP equipment with the highest network quality as first target AP equipment;
and under the condition that the network signal state score of the first target AP equipment is larger than or equal to the lowest network signal state, the terminal selects the first target AP equipment as the first AP equipment.
The lowest network signal state refers to that when the transmission rate or the signal strength of the AP device is in the state, network disconnection frequently occurs in the terminal device based on the WiFi hot spot transmission data of the AP device, that is, the user is influenced by normal use of the terminal device.
In the step, when a first AP device is selected, a first target AP device with the best network quality is selected based on the network requirement of a user, and then whether the terminal device is stable in the network is judged according to the network signal state of the first target AP device, if so, the terminal device is indicated to be switched to the AP device without influencing the terminal.
In some embodiments, in a case where the network signal state of the first target AP device is less than the lowest network signal state, the terminal removes the AP identifier corresponding to the first target AP device from the WiFi hotspot list.
It can be understood that if the AP device is unstable, it indicates that the current AP device has an influence on the terminal, and in order to avoid the influence of the AP device on the terminal to automatically select the network, the AP identifier corresponding to the AP device may be removed from the WiFi hotspot list, thereby, on one hand, ensuring the network requirement of the user, and on the other hand, avoiding frequent network disconnection after switching the network, thereby affecting the internet surfing experience of the user.
In some embodiments, the terminal reselects the first AP device if the network signal state of the first target AP device is less than the lowest network signal state.
When the terminal reselects the first AP device, the terminal may monitor the network parameters of the AP devices corresponding to each AP identifier in the current WiFi hotspot list again, and then select the first AP device according to the network parameters of each AP device and the network requirements of the terminal device, or directly select the first AP device according to the network parameters of each AP device and the network requirements of the terminal device that are currently stored, which is not limited.
In some embodiments, the terminal selects the first AP device based on the network quality, the network signal status, and the network requirements of the terminal, further comprising:
under the condition that the network requirement is that the network signal state priority is higher than the network quality priority, the terminal selects the AP equipment with the highest network signal state as second target AP equipment;
and under the condition that the network quality of the second target AP equipment is greater than or equal to the lowest network quality, selecting the second target AP equipment as the first AP equipment.
The minimum network quality refers to that when a beacon frame or network delay of the AP device is in the quality state, the duration of data transmission by the terminal device based on the WiFi hotspot of the AP device exceeds the maximum duration acceptable to the user, that is, the user is influenced by normal use of the terminal device.
In the step, when a first AP device is selected, a second target AP device with the best network signal state is selected based on the network requirement of a user, then whether the time length of transmitting data by the terminal device in the network signal state exceeds the maximum time length acceptable by the user is judged according to the network quality of the second target AP device, and if the time length does not exceed the maximum time length, the switching to the AP device is indicated to have no influence on the terminal.
In some embodiments, when the network quality score of the second target AP device is less than the lowest network quality score limit value, the second target AP device is removed from the WiFi hotspot list, and the step of selecting the second target AP device with the highest network signal status score from the WiFi hotspot list is performed again until the best AP device is selected.
It can be understood that if the network identifier exceeds the predetermined value, the current AP device has an influence on the terminal, and in order to avoid the influence of the AP device on the terminal to automatically select the network, the AP identifier corresponding to the AP device may be removed from the WiFi hotspot list, thereby, on one hand, ensuring the network requirement of the user, and on the other hand, avoiding the overlong data transmission time after switching the network, thereby affecting the internet surfing experience of the user.
In some embodiments, the terminal reselects the first AP device if the network quality of the second target AP device is less than the minimum network quality.
When the terminal reselects the first AP device, the terminal may monitor the network parameters of the AP devices corresponding to each AP identifier in the current WiFi hotspot list again, and then select the first AP device according to the network parameters of each AP device and the network requirements of the terminal device, or directly select the first AP device according to the network parameters of each AP device and the network requirements of the terminal device that are currently stored, which is not limited.
In some embodiments, before the terminal monitors the network parameters of the AP device corresponding to each AP identifier in the WiFi hotspot list, the method further includes:
under the condition of receiving heartbeat detection initiated by the AP equipment, the terminal determines an AP identification of the AP equipment;
and under the condition that the AP mark is a white list, the terminal responds to the heartbeat detection of the AP equipment and records the network parameters of the AP equipment in real time.
In practical application, the AP device may periodically initiate heartbeat detection to a terminal device connected within its network communication range, so as to detect whether the connection between the AP device and the terminal device is normal.
Optionally, in this embodiment, description is made on the basis of the AP identifier of the AP device as the MAC address of the AP device, where the case that the MAC address of the AP device is a white list includes:
first, the MAC address pool includes the MAC address of the AP device;
secondly, if the MAC address pool does not include the MAC address of the AP equipment, network security detection is firstly carried out on the AP equipment, and under the condition that the AP equipment passes through the network security detection, the MAC address of the AP equipment is stored in the MAC address pool.
The MAC address of the connected AP device is stored in the MAC address pool.
In the step, when the AP device performs heartbeat detection, a data packet request is sent to the terminal device, where the header of the data packet includes MAC address information of the AP device, and information carried in the data packet includes a request type, a service setting identifier, a beacon frame timestamp, a beacon frame time interval, a transmission rate, a signal strength, a network delay, and network performance information.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, network parameters between the AP device and the terminal device are recorded in real time based on a preset structured data table, where fields in the preset structured data table include, but are not limited to, a MAC address of the AP device, a beacon frame timestamp, a beacon frame time interval, a transmission rate, a signal strength, and a network delay.
Specifically, the MAC address is used to distinguish network parameters associated with each AP device, the beacon frame timestamp is used to characterize the real-time performance of the network parameters, and the beacon frame time interval, the transmission rate, the signal strength and the network delay are used to select the best AP device from the WiFi hotspot list.
In some embodiments, after the terminal responds to the heartbeat detection of the AP device, the method further includes:
the terminal judges whether the AP identification of the AP equipment is in a WiFi hot spot list or not;
and adding the AP identification of the AP equipment into the WiFi hotspot list under the condition that the AP identification of the AP equipment is not in the WiFi hotspot list.
And under the condition that the AP identification of the AP equipment which initiates heartbeat detection currently is not stored in the WiFi hotspot list, indicating that the current AP equipment is equipment which establishes connection newly, adding the AP identification into the WiFi hotspot list.
It should be noted that, the AP identifier stored in the WiFi hotspot list in the embodiment is an AP identifier of the AP device that has established a connection, in other words, the WiFi hotspot stored in the WiFi hotspot list in the embodiment does not need to send a key to the AP device to perform verification connection, so that automatic switching of the WiFi hotspot can be achieved.
Further, in another embodiment, after responding to the heartbeat detection of the AP device, a last beacon frame timestamp between each AP device and the terminal device may be further determined, and when the time difference between the beacon frame timestamp and the current time point exceeds the set maximum time limit, the AP identifier of the AP device is removed from the WiFi list, thereby avoiding that the AP device affects the automatic switching of the WiFi hotspot.
The embodiment also provides a WiFi connection method, applied to an AP device, including:
under the condition that network connection is established with a terminal device, the AP device determines the heartbeat detection interval period of other AP devices of the terminal, wherein the other AP devices are AP devices corresponding to other AP identifiers except the AP identifier of the AP device in a WiFi hotspot list of the terminal;
the AP equipment initiates heartbeat detection to the terminal based on the heartbeat detection interval period of the other AP equipment so as to transmit network parameters of the AP equipment to the terminal; the network parameters are used for the terminal to select the first AP equipment.
In this embodiment, in order to avoid frequent updating of network parameters of AP devices corresponding to each AP identifier in the WiFi hotspot list monitored by the terminal, so that the terminal frequently switches networks when selecting the first AP device, and the terminal cannot stably and automatically switch networks, all AP devices connected by the terminal adopt a uniform heartbeat detection interval period to report the states of the two devices.
For example, after the AP device establishes a network connection with one terminal, a heartbeat detection period request is sent to the terminal, and after receiving the heartbeat detection period request, the terminal determines a heartbeat detection period of the AP device currently being connected based on the heartbeat detection periods of other AP devices currently being connected.
According to the WiFi connection method provided by the embodiment, the network parameters of the AP equipment are periodically transmitted to the terminal by adopting the same heartbeat detection interval period by all the AP equipment corresponding to the AP identifications stored in the WiFi hotspot list of the terminal, so that the terminal can be stably switched to the first AP equipment with the best network quality state during automatic switching, and the user does not need to manually switch the experience one by one, thereby improving the WiFi automatic connection flexibility and further optimizing the user experience.
