In an existing wireless terminal with a single radio frequency module, the single radio frequency module is connected to an Access Point (AP) by a WIFI client. Since the single rf module needs to scan continuously which APs are around in order to ensure that it can always switch to the nearest AP, and these APs are deployed on different channels, the single rf module needs to leave the channel on which it operates. This brings about two problems, one is that the short service is suspended, which reduces the service bandwidth as a whole; secondly, the single radio frequency module has short scanning time on each channel, and cannot effectively collect the surrounding AP information, which results in poor user experience on the non-optimal AP which can roam.

Detailed Description
In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the invention provides a wireless terminal roaming method and a wireless terminal roaming device, which can perform Access Point (AP) scanning through a first radio frequency module of a wireless terminal when the wireless terminal roams; determining a new associated AP according to the scanned AP information of the AP; and disconnecting the AP currently associated with the wireless terminal through a second radio frequency module of the wireless terminal, and establishing connection with the new associated AP through the second radio frequency module. The invention can make the second radio frequency module provide uninterrupted data connection service and effectively collect the surrounding AP information through the first radio frequency module, thereby the wireless terminal can roam to the best AP, the roaming quality is improved, and the user experience is further improved.
Please refer to fig. 1, which is a flowchart illustrating a roaming method of a wireless terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, where the roaming method is applied to a wireless terminal, and the wireless terminal includes a first radio frequency module and a second radio frequency module, where the second radio frequency module is used to establish a connection with an AP, and the first radio frequency module is used to continuously scan AP information of a surrounding AP, where the AP may be a normal AP or a MESH AP. The method comprises the following steps:
step 101, when a wireless terminal roams, a first radio frequency module of the wireless terminal is used for scanning an Access Point (AP);
in this embodiment, during initialization, the working frequency bands of two radio frequency modules of the wireless terminal may be configured, specifically, the corresponding working frequency bands may be selected according to the network environment where the wireless terminal is currently located, for example, if there is only one radio frequency module in an AP in the current network, both the two radio frequency modules of the wireless terminal are configured to be the same working frequency band as the radio frequency module of the AP; if two radio frequency modules of the AP in the current network are different in working frequency band, the two radio frequency modules of the wireless terminal are respectively configured to be the same working frequency band corresponding to the two radio frequency modules of the AP. After the configuration is completed, the wireless terminal can control the second radio frequency module to connect with the radio frequency module of the current AP according to the configured working frequency band, and establish uplink and downlink data channels.
In this embodiment, no matter whether the working frequency bands of the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module of the wireless terminal are the same or not, the wireless terminal may perform AP scanning on each channel on the working frequency band of the first radio frequency module through the first radio frequency module to acquire AP information. Because the first radio frequency module is only used for AP scanning, the connection between the second radio frequency module and the AP can be ensured not to be interrupted.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the operating frequency bands of the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module are different, the wireless terminal of the present invention may further perform AP scanning on each channel on the operating frequency band of the second radio frequency module through the second radio frequency module; wherein the scanning frequency of the first radio frequency module is higher than the scanning frequency of the second radio frequency module. In the prior art, when a single radio frequency module meets a roaming trigger condition (for example, the signal strength is lower than a threshold), AP scanning is performed, which may easily cause service interruption of the single radio frequency module. Compared with the prior art, the method can enable the second radio frequency module to only perform periodic AP scanning, for example, scanning once every 10 seconds, and is used for acquiring surrounding AP information; the first radio frequency module always scans the AP (the scanning frequency of the first radio frequency module is far greater than that of the second radio frequency module) to acquire the AP information, so that the wireless terminal selects a new associated AP according to the AP information scanned by the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module.
Step 102, determining a new associated AP according to the scanned AP information of the AP;
when it is determined that roaming is needed, the wireless terminal may select an optimal AP as a new associated AP for the roaming of the wireless terminal according to the scanned AP information of the APs, such as signal strength, distance from the terminal, and the like, so as to implement seamless roaming of the wireless terminal and ensure that the wireless terminal can roam to the optimal AP.
As an embodiment, regardless of whether the operating frequency bands of the two radio frequency modules of the AP are the same, the wireless terminal may determine a new associated AP only according to the AP information scanned by the first radio frequency module, where a specific determination process is the prior art and is not described in detail herein.
As another embodiment, when the AP has two radio frequency modules with different operating frequency bands, that is, the operating frequency bands of the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module of the wireless terminal are different, the two radio frequency modules of the wireless terminal respectively scan the AP information at their respective scanning frequencies, for example, the AP information scanned by the first radio frequency module is referred to as first AP information, and the AP information scanned by the second radio frequency module is referred to as second AP information. The wireless terminal can determine first AP information of an AP corresponding to second AP information from the first AP information scanned by the first radio frequency module according to the second AP information scanned by the second radio frequency module, and the first AP information is used as effective AP information; and selecting a new associated AP according to the effective AP information. If a certain first AP information is valid AP information, it indicates that both the two radio frequency modules of the AP corresponding to the first AP information can work normally. Because the scanning frequency of the second rf module is significantly lower than that of the first rf module, the AP information scanned by the first rf module during roaming is not accurate, and therefore the AP information scanned by the first rf module needs to be used as a main basis for determining a new associated AP. Therefore, the invention can improve the scanning accuracy, reduce the scanning times of the second radio frequency and avoid the problem of service interruption by respectively executing the scanning and connecting work by the two radio frequency modules.
In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the wireless terminal may search, in the first AP information scanned by the first radio frequency module, first AP information that a first BSSID (Basic Service Set Identifier) carried by the first AP information and a second BSSID carried by the second AP information meet a preset condition; therefore, the searched first AP information is determined as the first AP information of the AP corresponding to the second AP information, which may also indicate that the first AP information and the second AP information are the AP information of the same AP.
Specifically, the AP information generally includes BSSID and signal strength, and the BSSID may be presented in the form of MAC address, and since the base addresses corresponding to the two radio frequency modules of the AP are different, the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module of the wireless terminal respectively scan BSSIDs of radio frequencies in the first frequency band and the second frequency band corresponding to the same AP. Because the first BSSID and the second BSSID belonging to the same AP conform to a certain preset condition, the wireless terminal may obtain the first BSSID included in the first AP information, obtain the second BSSID included in the second AP information, and then search for the first AP information, in which the carried first BSSID and the second BSSID carried by the second AP information conform to the preset condition, as valid AP information.
For example, suppose that the first rf module scans a 2.4G frequency band of a wireless network with SSID name wangfu, and scans 3 BSSIDs with values of 0e00fc-000d02,0e00fc-00ac02, and 0e00fc-000903, respectively; after dividing by 16 and rounding, the corresponding base addresses are respectively 0e00fc-000d00,0e00fc-00ac00 and 0e00 fc-000900. The frequency band of 5G of the wireless network with the SSID name of wangfu scanned by the second radio frequency module also scans 3 BSSIDs (base station system identifiers), and the values are 0e00fc-000d11,0e00fc-00ac11 and 0e00fc-000912 respectively; after dividing by 16 and rounding, the corresponding base addresses are respectively 0e00fc-000d10,0e00fc-00ac10 and 0e00 fc-000910. According to the corresponding relationship between the base address of the second radio frequency module of the factory AP and the base address of the first radio frequency module (for example, the base address of the second radio frequency module is 16 higher than the base address of the first radio frequency module), it can be determined that 0e00fc-000d00 corresponds to 0e00fc-000d10,0e00 fc-00ac00 corresponds to 0e00fc-00ac10, and 0e00fc-000900 corresponds to 0e00 fc-000910. It can thus be determined that 0e00fc-000d02 and 0e00fc-000d11 are AP information belonging to the same AP, 0e00fc-00ac02 and 0e00fc-00ac11 are AP information belonging to the same AP, and 0e00fc-000903 and 0e00fc-000912 are AP information belonging to the same AP. The AP information corresponding to the 3 BSSIDs scanned by the first rf module, whose values are 0e00fc-000d02,0e00fc-00ac02, and 0e00fc-000903 respectively, may be considered as valid AP information.
The AP with the two radio frequency modules can meet more requirements of users, for example, 2.4G can better penetrate barriers, and 5G signal attenuation can more accurately feed back the distance from the AP to the terminal, so that the wireless terminal can enhance the applicability of the wireless terminal and enrich application scenes by arranging the two radio frequency modules corresponding to the AP.
And 103, disconnecting the AP currently associated with the wireless terminal through a second radio frequency module of the wireless terminal, and establishing connection with the new associated AP through the second radio frequency module.
After determining the new associated AP, when the wireless terminal roams, the wireless terminal can disconnect from the AP currently associated with the wireless terminal through the second radio frequency module of the wireless terminal, and establish connection with the new associated AP through the second radio frequency module.
As an embodiment, when the second radio frequency module establishes a connection with the AP, a WIFI connection may be established or a wireless Mesh (Mesh) connection may be established.
Therefore, the invention can enable the second radio frequency module to provide uninterrupted data connection service, and effectively collect surrounding AP information through the first radio frequency module, thereby enabling the wireless terminal to roam to the best AP, improving roaming quality and further improving user experience.
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the solution of the present invention is further described in detail with reference to fig. 2.
Fig. 2 is a schematic view of a roaming networking of a wireless terminal in the embodiment of the present invention, where the wireless terminal in the embodiment takes a WIFI terminal as an example for description. The network comprises a WIFI terminal, and APs 1, 2, APs 3 and APs 4 which are distributed at different positions, wherein the WIFI terminal is provided with a first radio frequency module and a second radio frequency module, the first radio frequency module is used for scanning AP information, and the second radio frequency module is used for establishing connection with the APs.
The first condition is as follows:
if the APs in the network all have the single radio frequency modules, the WIFI terminal can set the working frequency bands of the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module to be the same as the working frequency bands of the single radio frequency modules of the APs.
Assuming that the AP currently connected to the WIFI terminal is AP1, the second radio frequency module of the WIFI terminal may establish connection with the radio frequency module of AP1, and the first radio frequency module may scan surrounding AP information, so as to obtain AP information of AP1, AP2, AP3, and AP4, where AP1 is the nearest AP to the WIFI terminal; when the WIFI terminal moves from the position A to the position A', a roaming condition is triggered, the first radio frequency module scans surrounding AP information to obtain the information of the AP1, the AP2, the AP3 and the AP4 again, and then an optimal AP is compared as a new associated AP for roaming of the WIFI terminal according to the AP information. For example, if an optimal AP is selected according to the distance between the WIFI terminal and the AP, when the WIFI terminal is located at the position a', the WIFI terminal may calculate the distance between the WIFI terminal and the AP according to the information of the AP collected by the first radio frequency module, and after comparison, it is found that the AP3 is closest to the WIFI terminal, so that the AP3 may be used as a new associated AP for roaming of the WIFI terminal, and the WIFI terminal disconnects from the AP1 through the second radio frequency module and establishes a connection with the AP 3.
Case two:
if the APs in the network all have two different radio frequency modules with different working frequency bands, and the working frequency bands are 2.4G and 5G respectively, the WIFI terminal can set the working frequency bands of the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module to be 2.4G and 5G respectively.
Assuming that the AP currently connected to the WIFI terminal is AP1, the second radio frequency module of the WIFI terminal may establish connection with the working radio frequency module of AP1, and the first radio frequency module may continuously scan AP information on each channel of 2.4G, so as to obtain first AP information of AP1, AP2, AP3, and AP4, which are AP1-1, AP2-1, AP3-1, and AP4-1, respectively; the second radio frequency module scans the AP information on each channel of the 5G every ten seconds, and if the second radio frequency module of the AP4 fails, the second radio frequency module can only acquire second AP information of the AP1, the AP2 and the AP3, namely AP1-2, AP2-2 and AP 3-2; when the WIFI terminal moves from the position A to the position A', a roaming condition is triggered, and the WIFI terminal acquires the first AP information and the second AP information scanned by the first radio frequency module and the second radio frequency module and then selects effective AP information. Specifically, as the AP1-1 has the corresponding AP1-2, the AP2-1 has the corresponding AP2-2, the AP3-1 has the corresponding AP3-2, and only the AP4-1 does not have the corresponding second AP information, it is determined that the AP1-1, the AP2-1, and the AP3-1 are valid AP information, and the WIFI terminal may compare an optimal AP as a new associated AP for the WIFI terminal to roam according to the valid AP information. For example, if an optimal AP is selected according to the distance between the WIFI terminal and the AP, when the WIFI terminal is located at the position a', the WIFI terminal may calculate the distance between the WIFI terminal and the AP according to the information of the AP collected by the first radio frequency module, and after comparison, it is found that the AP3 is closest to the WIFI terminal, so that the AP3 may be used as a new associated AP for roaming of the WIFI terminal, and the WIFI terminal disconnects from the AP1 through the second radio frequency module and establishes a connection with the AP 3.
