In the description of the present application, "plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specified. "and/or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, meaning that there may be three relationships, e.g., a and/or B, which may mean: a exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character "/" generally indicates that the former and latter associated objects are in an "or" relationship.
Referring to fig. 1, an environment diagram of an implementation environment provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown, where the implementation environment includes a terminal 110 and a server 120.
The terminal 110 is an electronic device having a WiFi network connection and a mobile data network connection function. The mobile data network may be a third Generation mobile communication technology (3rd-Generation, 3G) network, a fourth Generation mobile communication technology (4th-Generation, 4G) network, a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, a fifth Generation mobile communication technology (5th-Generation, 5G) network, or the like.
When the terminal 110 starts the WiFi network connection function, the terminal 110 may search for a nearby WiFi network and perform internet access by accessing the WiFi network; when the mobile data network connection function is turned on, the terminal 110 can perform internet access through the mobile data network. The WiFi network connection function and the mobile data network connection function can be started simultaneously.
In addition, at least one application is installed in the terminal 110, and the at least one application requires internet access, and the application may be an instant messaging application, an email application, a social application, a video playing application, a browser application, a game application, a news reading application, and the like.
The terminal 110 is connected to the server 120 through a WiFi network or a mobile data network.
The server 120 is a server, a server cluster formed by a plurality of servers, or a cloud computing center. In this embodiment, the server 120 is a background server of the game application program in the terminal 110. In the running process of the game application program, the game data of the local terminal is sent to the server 110, and the game data sent by other game application programs sent by the server 110 is received, so that the multiplayer online game is realized. The game application program can be: at least one of a policy-like massively multiplayer online game application MMOSLG, an adventure-like massively multiplayer online game application MMOAVG, a simulation-like massively multiplayer online game application MMOSG, a sports-like massively multiplayer online game application MMOSPT, a racing-like massively multiplayer online game application MMORCG, and a role-playing massively multiplayer online game application MMORPG.
In a possible application scenario, as shown in fig. 1, after the terminal 110 starts the game application, two paths of the WiFi network connection and the mobile data network connection are simultaneously established, and game data transmission is performed with the server 120 through one of the paths. In the running process of the game application program, the terminal 110 tests the two paths, and determines the quality of the two paths according to the test result, thereby determining to continue using the current network or switching the network.
Optionally, the implementation environment may further include a target server, and the terminal 110 accesses the target server through the established network connection, so as to obtain the quality of each network connection, and further determine whether network handover is required.
The following embodiments are described by taking an example in which the network handover method is applied to the terminal 110 in fig. 1.
Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of a network handover method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The present embodiment is illustrated by applying the method to the terminal 110 in fig. 1. The method comprises the following steps:
step 201, a first network connection and a second network connection are established, and the network connection modes of the first network connection and the second network connection are different.
Optionally, the network connection mode is one of a WiFi network connection and a mobile data network connection, that is, when the first network connection is a WiFi network connection, the second network connection is a mobile data network connection; when the first network connection is a mobile data network connection, the second network connection is a WiFi network connection.
When the WiFi network connection is established, the terminal needs to start the WiFi network connection function and is within the WiFi network signal coverage range; when the mobile data network connection is established, the terminal needs to start the mobile data network connection function and is within the coverage range of the base station signal.
In a possible implementation mode, when the game application program is detected to be started, the terminal establishes a WiFi network connection and a mobile data network connection dual-channel at the same time; when the starting of the non-game application program is detected, the terminal only establishes WiFi network connection or mobile data network connection.
In other possible embodiments, the terminal establishes the first network connection and the second network connection when any application program needing to be connected to the network is started.
Step 202, network data of the game application program is transmitted through the first network connection.
After establishing a WiFi network connection and a mobile data network connection double channel, the terminal sends network data generated in the running process of the game application program to the server through one of the network connections, and receives the network data sent to the game application program by the server through the network connection. Wherein, the game application program is in a foreground running state.
In one possible implementation, when a WiFi network connection and a mobile data network connection are established simultaneously and the WiFi network connection is available (internet access is available), the terminal defaults to transmitting network data over the WiFi network connection.
Step 203, performing network quality test on the first network connection and the second network connection to obtain a network quality test result.
In the running process of the game application program (namely in the process of using the first network connection for data transmission), the terminal performs network quality test on the first network connection and the second network connection, so as to obtain a network quality test result indicating the network quality.
In a possible implementation manner, the terminal periodically accesses the specified server by using each established network connection, so as to obtain a network quality test result corresponding to each network connection.
Optionally, the network quality test result includes at least one of delay and packet loss rate, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit specific parameters included in the network quality test result.
And step 204, if the network quality test result indicates that the quality of the second network connection is better than that of the first network connection, switching to use the second network connection to transmit the network data of the game application program.
According to the network quality test result, the terminal detects whether the quality of the first network connection is superior to that of the second network connection, if so, the terminal determines that the network does not need to be switched, continues to transmit network data through the first network connection, and continues to perform the network quality test; if the quality of the second network connection is better than that of the first network connection, the terminal determines that the current network condition is not good and performs network switching, so that the second network connection is used for transmitting the network data of the game application program, and the running quality of the game application program is ensured.
It should be noted that, after the network switching is completed, the terminal still maintains the first network connection, and at the initial stage of the network switching, the terminal connects the network data sent by the server through the first network; after the terminal subsequently transmits network data to the server via the second network connection, the server will also transmit network data to the terminal via the second network connection (the IP addresses of the first network connection and the second network connection are different).
Optionally, after the network switching is completed, the terminal continues to perform the network quality test, and performs real-time network switching according to the network quality test result, so as to ensure that the terminal accesses a network with better quality.
By adopting the method, when the terminal runs the game application program with higher network quality requirement, the network can be dynamically switched according to the quality of different network connections, so that the game application program can be ensured to run under the network connection with better quality, and the running quality of the game application program can be improved.
To sum up, in the embodiment of the present application, a dual-channel network connection is established by using different network connection modes, and one of the network connections is used to transmit network data of a game application program, so that when the network quality of the current network connection is inferior to that of the other network connection, the other network connection is automatically switched to transmit the network data of the game application program; the whole network switching process is automatically executed by the terminal, manual switching by a user is not needed, and the network switching process is simplified; meanwhile, two network connection paths are pre-established, so that the network data transmission is not influenced in the network switching process, the phenomenon of pause in the switching process is avoided, and the seamless switching between networks is realized.
The network data transmitted between the game-like application and the server usually includes User Datagram Protocol (UDP) data and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) data, where the UDP data usually includes data with a high requirement on Transmission delay, such as Control instructions in the game, and the TCP data usually includes data with a high requirement on Transmission reliability, such as login information in the game. Since the transmission of the TCP data depends on the TCP connection established between the terminal and the server, and the connection is disconnected due to the re-establishment of the TCP connection, in order to further reduce the influence of the network switch on the game application, the terminal only switches the UDP data to the network connection with better quality for transmission, and the following description uses an exemplary embodiment.
Referring to fig. 3, a flowchart of a network handover method according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The present embodiment is illustrated by applying the method to the terminal 110 in fig. 1. The method comprises the following steps:
step 301, determining whether the foreground application program belongs to the game application program according to the application package name of the foreground application program.
In the embodiment of the application, when the terminal starts a game application program with higher requirements on network quality (for example, low delay and low packet loss rate are required), the terminal starts an intelligent network switching function. Therefore, for the foreground application currently running in the foreground, the terminal acquires the application package name (packagemame) of the foreground application, so that whether the foreground application belongs to the game application or not is determined according to the application package name. The foreground application program refers to an application program which is switched from a background to a foreground for running, or an application program which is directly started in the foreground.
In a possible implementation mode, the terminal acquires a target game application program which is set by a user and needs to enable intelligent network switching, and stores a target application package name of the target game application program. When detecting that the foreground application program exists subsequently, the terminal detects whether the application package name of the foreground application program belongs to the target application package name, and if so, determines that the foreground application program belongs to the game application program, and executes step 302; otherwise, the foreground application is determined not to belong to the game application.
Optionally, in order to ensure that intelligent network switching can be realized when the game application program is run, if the foreground application program belongs to the game application program and the first network connection function is not started, the terminal displays second prompt information, where the second prompt information is used for prompting the start of the first network connection function; and if the foreground application program belongs to the game application program and the second network connection function is not started, displaying third prompt information, wherein the third prompt information is used for prompting the start of the second network connection function.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4, when the terminal detects that the WiFi network connection function is turned on but the mobile data network connection function is not turned on, a prompt message is displayed through the Toast message box 41. When the user clicks the setting button 42 in the Toast message box 41, the terminal jumps to display the mobile data network setting interface, so that the user can start the mobile data network connection function.
Step 302, if the foreground application program belongs to the game application program, establishing a first network connection and a second network connection.
The method for establishing the first network connection and the second network connection by the terminal may refer to step 201, which is not described herein again in this embodiment.
Step 303, transmitting the network data of the game application program through the first network connection.
The step 202 may be referred to in the implementation manner of this step, and this embodiment is not described herein again.
In a possible implementation manner, during the operation of the game application program in the foreground, the terminal simultaneously performs network quality test on the first network connection and the second network connection, and performs network switching when the quality of the second network connection is better than that of the first network connection.
In another possible implementation, in order to avoid frequent network handover and reduce the resources consumed in the network quality test, the terminal performs the network quality test through steps 304 to 306 described below.
Step 304, accessing the target server through the first network connection to obtain a first network quality test result, where the first network quality test result includes at least one of delay and packet loss rate.
The terminal periodically accesses the target server through the first network connection while transmitting the network data of the game application program through the first network connection, so that a first network quality test result including delay and packet loss rate is obtained. Wherein a lower delay and/or a lower packet loss rate indicates a better quality of the network connection.
In one possible embodiment, the terminal periodically pings the target domain name (corresponding to the target server) to calculate the delay and packet loss rate of the first network connection based on the response result of the target server. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the manner of measuring the delay and the packet loss rate.
Optionally, for different types of network connections, the period of the terminal accessing the target server is also different. When the first network connection is WiFi network connection, the terminal accesses the target server through the first network connection at intervals of a first time interval to obtain a first network quality test result; and when the first network connection is the mobile data network connection, the terminal accesses the target server through the first network connection at intervals of a second time interval to obtain a first network quality test result. The probability of network fluctuation of the WiFi network connection is higher, so the first time interval is smaller than the second time interval, that is, when the WiFi network connection is used to transmit network data, the frequency of the terminal performing the network quality test is higher. For example, the first time interval is 1s, and the second time interval is 2 s.
Step 305, if the first network quality test result does not reach the target test result, accessing the target server through the second network connection to obtain a second network quality test result, where the second network quality test result includes at least one of delay and packet loss rate.
In a possible implementation manner, a target test result is preset in the terminal, and the target test result includes at least one of a target delay and a target packet loss rate, where the target delay and the target packet loss rate are minimum indexes that the game application program needs to meet when running normally. For example, the target delay is 100ms, and the target packet loss rate is 10%.
Since the requirements of different types of games on the network quality may be different, optionally, the parameters included in the target test result are different for different types of game applications. For example, in a target test result corresponding to a First-person shooter (FPS) game, the target delay is 50ms, and the target packet loss rate is 10%, whereas in a target test result corresponding to a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game, the target delay is 100ms, and the target packet loss rate is 10%.
After obtaining the first network quality test result, the terminal detects whether the first network quality test result reaches the target test result, if so, it is determined that network switching is not needed, and the network quality test is continued through the step 304; if not, the terminal further accesses the target server through the second network connection, so that a second network quality test result is obtained.
Optionally, when the delay is higher than the target delay, or/and the packet loss rate is higher than the target packet loss rate, the terminal determines that the first network quality test result does not reach the target test result.
The step 304 may be referred to in the process of testing the second network connection, and this embodiment is not described herein again.
Step 306, if the second network quality test result is better than the first network quality test result, determining that the quality of the second network connection is better than the quality of the first network connection.
Further, the terminal determines whether the quality of the second network connection is due to the quality of the first network connection by comparing the second network quality test result with the first network quality test result. If the quality of the second network connection is better than the quality of the first network connection, the terminal performs step 307, where if the quality of the first network connection is better than the quality of the second network connection, the terminal determines that network handover is not required and continues to perform the network quality test through step 304.
In one possible embodiment, the terminal determines that the quality of the second network connection is better than the quality of the first network connection when the delay of the second network connection is lower than the delay of the first network connection and/or the packet loss rate of the second network connection is lower than the packet loss rate of the first network connection.
When the network connection test is carried out by adopting the steps 304 to 306, the frequent network switching is avoided by setting a target test result under the condition that the connection quality of the two networks is better; meanwhile, the terminal performs quality test on the second network connection only under the condition that the quality of the first network connection is poor, so that resources consumed during network quality test are further reduced.
Step 307, if the network quality test result indicates that the quality of the second network connection is better than the quality of the first network connection, identifying the network data of the game application according to the UID of the game application.
In order to accurately switch the network data corresponding to the game application program to the second network connection with better quality, the terminal needs to identify the network data of the game application program according to the Unique Identifier (UID) of the game application program. The embodiment of the application also limits the specific mode of identifying the network data corresponding to the specified application program.
In step 308, UDP data and TCP data in the network data are identified.
The network data transmitted by the game application program may include UDP data and TCP data. The UDP is a connectionless transport protocol, so switching network connections does not affect the transmission of UDP data; TCP is a transmission protocol based on connection, when a network is switched, the existing TCP connection needs to be disconnected firstly, and then a new TCP connection is reestablished, so that the switching of the network connection can affect the transmission of TCP data, and further the problems of pause, disconnection and reconnection of game pictures and the like in the network switching process are caused.
In order to avoid the above problem during network switching, after the network data of the game application program is identified, the terminal needs to further identify UDP data and TCP data therein.
In one possible embodiment, the terminal identifies UDP data and TCP data according to a protocol identifier field (identifying the protocol number of the protocol following the header), where the protocol number of UDP data is 17 and the protocol number of TCP data is 6.
Step 309, transmitting the TCP data in the network data through the first network connection.
For TCP data in network data, in order to avoid the problems of jamming, disconnection, reconnection and the like caused by reestablishing the TCP connection when the TCP data is switched to a second network connection for transmission, the terminal still transmits the TCP data through the first network connection.
Accordingly, the terminal continues to receive the TCP data transmitted by the server through the first network connection.
In step 310, the second network connection is switched to be used for transmitting UDP data in the network data.
For the UDP data in the network data, in order to improve the running quality of the game application program, the terminal switches the UDP data to the second network connection for transmission, so that the transmission delay and the packet loss rate of the UDP data of the game application program are reduced.
Accordingly, the terminal subsequently receives the UDP data sent by the server via the second network connection. It should be noted that, in the initial stage of network switching, since the server still transmits UDP data to the terminal through the first network connection, the terminal receives UDP data through the first network connection and the second network connection at the same time in the initial stage of network switching, and stops receiving UDP data through the first network connection when UDP data is successively received through the second network.
In this embodiment, when the quality of the second network connection is the quality of the currently used first network connection, the terminal identifies the network data of the game application through the UID, switches the UDP data in the second network connection transmission network data, and still uses the TCP data in the first network connection transmission network data, thereby avoiding the problems of game stutter, disconnection reconnection, and the like caused by TCP reconnection, and reducing the influence of network switching on the game application program.
In addition, in the embodiment, the terminal performs quality test on the second network connection only under the condition that the quality of the first network connection is poor, so that resources consumed during network quality test are further reduced; meanwhile, the terminal avoids frequently switching the network under the condition that the connection quality of the two networks is better by setting a target test result.
In addition, in the embodiment, the terminal establishes the dual connection path only when the foreground application is a game application with a high network quality requirement, so that intelligent network switching is realized, and resource waste caused by establishing the dual connection path for a low network quality requirement is avoided.
In a possible application scenario, the terminal transmits network data through the WiFi network connection currently, but due to fluctuation of the WiFi network, the terminal switches the mobile data network with better network quality to transmit the network data, and traffic is generated when the network data is transmitted through the mobile data network. In order to remind the user of traffic generated when the game application is running, in a possible embodiment, when the first network connection is a WiFi network connection and the second network connection is a mobile data network connection, on the basis of fig. 3, as shown in fig. 5, the following step is further included after step 310.
Step 311, obtaining the data volume of the data transmitted by the game application program through the second network connection.
When switching to the mobile data network to transmit network data (UDP data), the terminal counts the data volume of the game application program transmitting data through the mobile data network connection in real time.
In step 312, if the data amount is greater than the threshold, a first prompt message is displayed, where the first prompt message is used to prompt the game application program to consume the mobile data network traffic.
Optionally, the threshold is set by a user, or the threshold is determined by the terminal according to the remaining flow. For example, the threshold is 10MB, or the threshold is 10% of the remaining flow.
The terminal detects whether the data volume reaches a threshold value or not, and displays first prompt information when the data volume reaches the threshold value so as to provide that the user game application program is consuming the mobile data network flow at present.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 6, when the data amount is larger than the threshold, the terminal displays a prompt box 43 to prompt the user that the mobile data network is currently being used.
Optionally, when the data amount is greater than the threshold, the terminal automatically switches to use the WiFi data network for connecting and transmitting the network data, displays corresponding fourth prompt information, queries the user whether to switch to use the mobile data network, and automatically switches to connect the mobile data network when receiving a confirmation instruction.
In this embodiment, when the mobile data network is intelligently switched to use, the terminal detects the traffic consumed by the game application program and prompts the user when the consumed traffic is large, so as to avoid extra traffic cost caused by too much mobile data network traffic consumed by the game application program.
The following are embodiments of the apparatus of the present application that may be used to perform embodiments of the method of the present application.
