Wherein, the air conditioner in the living room and the air conditioner in the bedroom are respectively used as the master equipment in the living room and the bedroom, and other equipment is used as the slave equipment. The communication control device provided by the invention can be applied to the master equipment and/or the slave equipment.
Fig. 2 is a block diagram of a control device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the control device 100 includes: a master-slave determination unit 110, a first communication unit 120, a second communication unit 130. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of the connection relationship between the control device provided by the present invention and the router and other devices through the first communication unit 120 and the second communication unit 130 (the master-slave determination unit 110 is not shown).
The master-slave determining unit 110 is configured to determine that the device is a master device or a slave device; the master-slave determining unit 110 may specifically determine that the device belongs to be a master device or a slave device according to a preset setting or a selection of a user. As shown in fig. 3, the first communication unit 120 is configured to connect with a router to connect to the internet through the router; when the device is a master device, the second communication unit 130 is connected with the slave device; and/or, when the device is a slave device, the second communication unit 130 is connected with the master device. When the device is a slave device, the first communication unit 120 connects to a router when the second communication unit 130 is not connected to a master device; and/or the first communication unit 120 disconnects the router when the second communication unit 130 is connected to the master device. The first communication unit and the second communication unit may specifically be different communication channels, and the first communication unit and the second communication unit use different communication interfaces. In one embodiment, the first communication unit includes a wifi module, and/or the second communication unit is configurable according to a predetermined communication protocol.
Specifically, when the belonging device is a master device, the first communication unit 120 is connected to a router; the second communication unit 130 is connected to a slave device, and the slave device is connected to the slave device to realize internet connection via a router. When the device is a slave device, the first communication unit 120 is connected with the router, and the second communication unit 130 is connected with the master device; in the case where the second communication unit 130 is not connected to the host device, the first communication unit 120 maintains a connection with a router to connect to the internet through the router; in the case where the second communication unit 130 has been connected to the host device, the first communication unit 120 disconnects the router, connects to the host device through the second communication unit 130, and connects to the internet through the router. For example, when an electrical appliance (belonging device) has successfully connected to the host device through the second communication unit 130, the first communication unit 120 is disconnected from the router, and if the second communication unit 130 is not connected to the host device (for example, the connection is disconnected), the first communication unit 120 is directly connected to the router.
Further, when the device is a slave device, the second communication unit 120 searches for a master device to connect with the master device; when two or more master devices are searched, the second communication unit 130 connects to the master device having the strongest communication signal among the two or more master devices.
For example, when an appliance is in a first room, the master device in the first room and the master device in a second room are searched through the second communication unit 130, because the appliance is in the first room, the communication signal strength of the master device in the first room is stronger than that of the master device in the second room, and therefore, the appliance is connected to the master device in the first room through the second communication unit 130; and when the appliance is moved to the second room, searching the master device through the second communication unit 130, because the appliance is in the second room, and therefore, the communication signal strength of the master device searching the second room is stronger than that of the master device in the first room, disconnecting the second communication unit 130 from the master device in the first room, and connecting the master device in the second room through the second communication unit 130.
The embodiment of the invention can realize that the slave equipment is connected with the router through being connected with the master equipment, thereby connecting the internet, reducing the connection number of the router, normally networking more networking equipment under the condition of unchanged performance of the router, and solving the problem of unstable wireless connection or unavailable connection caused by the increase of the networking equipment.
Fig. 4 is a block diagram of another embodiment of the communication control apparatus according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 4, based on the foregoing embodiment, when the device is a master device, the apparatus 100 may further include: an instruction recognition unit 140 and a first control unit 150.
An instruction identification unit 140 for identifying a first control instruction issued by a user; the first control unit 150 is configured to determine that the first control instruction identified by the instruction identification unit is a master control instruction or a slave control instruction, if the first control instruction is a master control instruction, perform a corresponding operation according to the first control instruction by the belonging device, and if the first control instruction is a slave control instruction, forward the first control instruction to a corresponding slave device in the connected slave devices through the second wireless communication unit.
Preferably, the device is a voice device, such as a voice sound box, a voice box, and the like, the first control command is a voice control command, and the command recognition unit 140 is a voice recognition unit and recognizes the voice control command sent by the user.
Under the condition that devices with the same name are distributed in different rooms, when the devices are controlled through voice command words, the command words need to contain positioning words for positioning the specified devices, device names and the like, so that the voice control command words are often long, for example, a bedroom dehumidifier is turned on. Moreover, before the control is realized, the distribution of the devices must be classified according to rooms in advance, and particularly, the devices which are movable and frequently change rooms need to be classified and divided again every time, which brings much trouble to users.
The device may be a voice central control device when the device is a master device, and receives a voice command for the devices in the room to implement control of the devices in the room, and fig. 5 is a topology diagram of a network formed by home devices according to another example of the present invention. In the illustration of fig. 5, devices in the living room form a network and devices in the bedroom form a network. The air conditioner in the living room serves as a device, the voice central control in the bedroom serves as a master device, and the other devices serve as slave devices and are directly connected with the slave devices in the room through the second communication unit 130 in a networking mode. The voice central control device as a master device recognizes a voice control instruction sent by a user through the instruction recognition unit 140, if the voice control instruction is a master device control instruction, the device to which the voice central control device belongs executes corresponding operation according to the voice control instruction, and if the voice control instruction is a slave device control instruction, the recognized voice control instruction is forwarded to a corresponding slave device in the connected slave devices through the second communication unit 130.
When the equipment is the slave equipment, the master equipment which is used as voice central control is connected through a second communication unit; the device searches the master device, when more than two master devices are searched, the device is connected with the master device with the strongest communication signal in the more than two master devices through the second communication unit, and the signal is attenuated quickly after penetrating through the wall and hardly attenuated in the same room, so that the slave device can be connected with the master device in the room and directly networked with the master device in the room. When the user speaks the voice control command word, the user does not need to speak the positioning word for positioning the specified device (i.e. the user does not contain the room name), and the voice center control serving as the master device only needs to directly recognize the device name in the voice control command word and directly forwards the device name to the device with the device name in the connected slave devices.
Therefore, when the voice central control is placed in a certain room as a master device, peripheral slave devices of the voice central control can be automatically connected with the voice central control, the voice central control can divide the devices connected with the voice central control into a room classification, and the like, so that the networking devices of all the rooms can be automatically networked and classified based on the voice central control of all the rooms. When a user controls each room, the equipment in the room can be controlled without containing the name of the room in the used command word, the user does not need to classify the room in advance, the field of the room can be omitted by the voice command word entry, and for example, the user can realize the effect of opening a dehumidifier in a bedroom by saying that the dehumidifier is opened in the bedroom.
When the device is a master device, the first communication unit 120 is further configured to receive a first control instruction of a user through a router, where the first control instruction is used to control the master device or a slave device; fig. 6 is a block diagram of a communication control apparatus according to still another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 6, the control apparatus 100 further includes a second control unit 160, when the device is a master device, configured to determine that the second control instruction received by the first communication unit is a master device control instruction or a slave device control instruction, if the second control instruction is a master device control instruction, the device performs a corresponding operation according to the second control instruction, and if the second control instruction is a slave device control instruction, the second control instruction is forwarded to a corresponding slave device of the connected slave devices through the second wireless communication unit.
Specifically, when the device to which the control apparatus 100 belongs is a master device, the first communication unit 120 connects to a router so as to connect to the internet; the first communication unit 120 may receive a second control instruction of the user through the router. The second control instruction is used for controlling the master device or the slave device, and the second control instruction may specifically be a remote control instruction sent by a user through the internet by using a user terminal. The second control unit 140 determines that the second control instruction received by the first communication unit 120 is a master control instruction or a slave control instruction, and if the second control instruction is a master control instruction, the corresponding operation is executed by the belonging device according to the second control instruction; if the second control instruction is a slave device control instruction, the second control instruction is forwarded to a corresponding slave device in the connected slave devices through the second communication unit 130, so that the corresponding slave device performs a corresponding operation according to the second control instruction.
On the other hand, when the device is a slave device, the second communication unit 130 is configured to receive a first control instruction and/or a second control instruction sent by a user and forwarded by the master device, and the device executes a corresponding operation according to the first control instruction and/or the second control instruction, where the first control instruction is a first control instruction sent by a user identified by the master device; optionally, the first control instruction is a voice control instruction. The second control instruction is a second control instruction sent by a user and received by the main equipment through the router; optionally, the second control instruction may specifically be a remote control instruction sent by a user through the internet by using a user terminal.
Fig. 7 is a method schematic diagram of an embodiment of the control method provided by the present invention. As shown in fig. 7, the method includes a first connecting step S1, a second connecting step S2.
A first connection step S1 for connecting with a router through the first communication unit 120 to connect the internet through the router; a second connection step S2 of connecting with the master device through the second communication unit when the belonging device is the slave device, or connecting with the slave device through the second communication unit when the belonging device is the master device; the first connection step S1, when the device is a slave device, connecting to the router through the first communication unit without connecting to the master device through the second communication unit; and/or, in the case where the first communication unit has been connected to the master device through the second communication unit, disconnecting the first communication unit from the router.
The device may be a master device or a slave device, and the device may be determined to be the master device or the slave device according to a preset setting or a selection of a user. The first communication unit and the second communication unit may specifically be different communication channels, and the first communication unit and the second communication unit use different communication interfaces. In one embodiment, the first communication unit includes a wifi module, and/or the second communication unit is configurable according to a predetermined communication protocol.

Preferably, the device is a voice device, such as a voice speaker, a voice box, or the like, and the first control instruction is a voice control instruction.
Under the condition that devices with the same name are distributed in different rooms, when the devices are controlled through voice command words, the command words need to contain positioning words for positioning the specified devices, device names and the like, so that the voice control command words are often long, for example, a bedroom dehumidifier is turned on. Moreover, before the control is realized, the distribution of the devices must be classified according to rooms in advance, and particularly, the devices which are movable and frequently change rooms need to be classified and divided again every time, which brings much trouble to users.
The device can be a voice central control device when being a master device, and is directly connected with the slave device in the room through the second communication unit in a networking manner. The master device recognizes a voice control instruction issued by a user (instruction recognition step S3), and determines that the recognized first control instruction is a master device control instruction or a slave device control instruction (first determination step S4), if the voice control instruction is a master device control instruction, the corresponding operation is performed by the belonging device according to the voice control instruction (first execution step S5), and if the voice control instruction is a slave device control instruction, the recognized voice control instruction is forwarded to the corresponding slave device of the connected slave devices through the second communication unit (first forwarding step S6).
When the equipment is the slave equipment, the master equipment which is used as voice central control is connected through a second communication unit; the device searches the master device, when more than two master devices are searched, the device is connected with the master device with the strongest communication signal in the more than two master devices through the second communication unit, and the signal is attenuated quickly after penetrating through the wall and hardly attenuated in the same room, so that the slave device can be connected with the master device in the room and directly networked with the master device in the room. When the user speaks the voice control command word, the user does not need to speak the positioning word for positioning the specified device (i.e. the user does not contain the room name), and the voice center control serving as the master device only needs to directly recognize the device name in the voice control command word and directly forwards the device name to the device with the device name in the connected slave devices.
Therefore, when the voice central control is placed in a certain room as a master device, peripheral slave devices of the voice central control can be automatically connected with the voice central control, the voice central control can divide the devices connected with the voice central control into a room classification, and the like, so that the networking devices of all the rooms can be automatically networked and classified based on the voice central control of all the rooms. When a user controls each room, the equipment in the room can be controlled without containing the name of the room in the used command word, the user does not need to classify the room in advance, the field of the room can be omitted by the voice command word entry, and for example, the user can realize the effect of opening a dehumidifier in a bedroom by saying that the dehumidifier is opened in the bedroom.
