Therefore, the connection between the terminal and the wireless local area network can be activated and deactivated at the base station side according to the condition of the network side, so that a large amount of energy consumption caused by continuous monitoring of a WLAN channel by the terminal is reduced.
The integrated module according to the embodiment of the present invention may also be stored in a computer-readable storage medium if it is implemented in the form of a software functional module and sold or used as an independent product. Based on such understanding, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention may be essentially implemented or a part contributing to the prior art may be embodied in the form of a software product, which is stored in a storage medium and includes several instructions for enabling a computer device (which may be a personal computer, a base station, or a network device) to execute all or part of the methods described in the embodiments of the present invention. And the aforementioned storage medium includes: a U-disk, a removable hard disk, a Read-Only Memory (ROM), a Random Access Memory (RAM), a magnetic disk or an optical disk, and other various media capable of storing program codes. Thus, embodiments of the invention are not limited to any specific combination of hardware and software.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
