In a specific application, a first communication channel may be established in advance between the first terminal and the second terminal, for example, the first terminal may establish a communication connection with the second terminal through bluetooth, NFC (near field communication), or the like, a user of the first terminal performs an operation that may trigger establishment of the first communication channel in the second area, for example, slides a preset track in the second area, or taps a preset number of times in the second area, or the like, and after the second terminal responds to a request for establishing the first communication channel of the first terminal, the first communication channel associated with the second area is established between the first terminal and the second terminal.

In specific application, the first area may be any area on the first terminal screen, the second area may also be any area on the first terminal screen, the first area and the second area are not overlapped, and specific ranges of the first area and the second area may be set according to an actual application scenario, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the present invention, if a first input of a user is received in a first terminal, specifically, the user moves a target object from a first area to a second area of the first terminal, and it can be considered that the user of the first terminal wishes to send the target object to a second terminal, the first terminal may send a first request message including the target object to the second terminal, and the second terminal, upon receiving the first request message, may further respond to the first request message to implement communication with the first terminal.

In a specific application, the target object may be a file to be transmitted, a compressed package, an instruction for executing a preset function, and the like, and the specific form of the target object is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the invention, the first communication channel associated with the second area is pre-established between the first terminal and the second terminal, and when the first terminal wants to send the target object to the second terminal, the first terminal user only needs to move the target object from the first area to the second area of the terminal, and the first terminal can send the first request message including the target object to the second terminal. In the embodiment of the invention, the first terminal user can send the transmission request of the target object only by moving the target object from the first area to the second area, and does not need to additionally open the transmission application or search the sending frame of the transmission application, so that the operation is very convenient.

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart illustrating specific steps of a communication method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The method is applied to a first terminal, and comprises the following specific steps:

step 201: a second input is received from the user selecting the second region.

Step 202: and responding to the second input, and sending a second request message to the server, wherein the second request message is a request message for establishing the first communication channel.

In the embodiment of the invention, the first terminal and the second terminal can simultaneously start the communication modules such as the Bluetooth and the NFC, so that the server supporting the Bluetooth and NFC communication can communicate with the first terminal and the second terminal through the communication modules.

In the embodiment of the invention, the user selects the second area to trigger the establishment of the first communication channel between the first terminal and the second terminal. In a specific application, the second input of the user selecting the second area may be that the user drags an object for establishing the communication channel to the second area, for example, the user drags an NFC establishment instruction or a bluetooth establishment instruction to the second area; the second input of the user selecting the second area may also be that the user selects the second area by making a preset circle of action on the screen of the first terminal, such as sliding a circular track, a square track, etc. The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific form of the second input.

In the embodiment of the invention, after receiving a second input of the user in the second area, the first terminal sends a second request message for requesting to establish the first communication channel to the server. In an application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention, the second request message may include a terminal identifier of the second terminal, for example, a device identifier number, a communication address number, and the like of the second terminal, and the server may determine, through the second request message, the second terminal that the first terminal desires to communicate, and send the second request message to the second terminal. In another application scenario of the embodiment of the present invention, the second request message may include a terminal identifier of the first terminal, and the server may search the second terminal by itself after receiving the second request message, and send the second request message to the searched second terminal. It can be understood that, those skilled in the art may also determine the specific form of the second request message according to the actual application scenario, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

Step 203: and under the condition of receiving a feedback message sent by a second terminal, establishing a first communication channel with the second terminal.

In the embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the second request message from the first terminal, the server sends the second request message to the second terminal, and the second terminal may send a feedback message for the second request message, for example, if the second terminal receives the request of establishing the first communication channel by the first terminal, the second terminal sends a feedback message indicating that it agrees to establish the first communication channel; accordingly, the second terminal may not send the feedback message if the second terminal does not accept the request of the first terminal to establish the first communication channel. In case of receiving a feedback message sent by the second terminal, a first communication channel with the second terminal may be established at the first terminal.

In the embodiment of the present invention, through steps 201 to 203, a first communication channel associated with the second area is established between the first terminal and the second terminal, and then the first terminal can perform simple and fast communication with the second terminal through the first communication channel.

As a preferred solution of the embodiment of the present invention, for example, a communication channel is established through NFC, and multi-channel communication may be implemented in multiple terminals within a spatial range in which NFC can support communication, as shown in fig. 7 specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, any terminal may be simultaneously used as a transmitting end and/or a receiving end.

As shown in fig. 7, it is assumed that there are five terminals: terminal A, terminal B, terminal C, terminal D and terminal E. The five terminals can be used as both the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal.

In specific application, within a certain range, terminals a to E can simultaneously start NFC, and respectively initiate request messages for establishing different communication channels to a server; the server may establish group connections in the terminals a to E, respectively, and connect the terminals a to E together by using NFC, so as to perform subsequent target object transmission operations. It will be appreciated that if there are also new mobile terminals that do not join the group connection, NFC may be turned on to join the group connection for the new mobile terminals that do not join the group connection.

Multiple communication channels can be established in each terminal, each communication channel corresponding to a different area in the terminal screen, as shown in fig. 7, there are six communication channels: a first channel 41, a second channel 42, a third channel 43, a fourth channel 44, a fifth channel 45 and a sixth channel 46; each communication channel has a corresponding position in the terminal, and communication with respect to the target object can be performed between terminals having the same communication channel established.

In the specific application, when a terminal user needs to send the same or different target objects to different communication channels, the transmission of the target object can be triggered only by dragging the target object to the area corresponding to the communication channel.

For example, as shown in fig. 7, terminal a establishes: a first channel 41, a second channel 42, a third channel 43 and a fourth channel 44; the terminal B establishes: a first channel 41 and a sixth channel 46; the terminal C establishes: channel two 42, channel three 43, channel four 44; the terminal D establishes: a first channel 41, a fourth channel 44, a fifth channel 45 and a sixth channel 46; the terminal E has established therein: channel one 41, channel three 43, channel five 45.

Terminal a and terminal B may communicate with each other through channel one 41; terminal B and terminal C cannot communicate; terminal C and terminal D may communicate with each other over channel four 44; the terminal D and the terminal E can communicate with each other through a first channel 41 and a fifth channel 45; terminal E and terminal A can communicate with each other through channel one 41 and channel three 43; the terminal A and the terminal C can communicate with each other through a second channel 42, a third channel 43 and a fourth channel 44; terminal a and terminal D may communicate with each other through channel one 41 and channel four 44; the terminal B and the terminal D can communicate with each other through a first channel 41 and a sixth channel 46; the terminal B and the terminal E can communicate with each other through a channel I41; terminal C and terminal E may communicate with each other over channel three 43.

After multiple communication channels from the terminal A to the terminal E are established, any one of the terminal A to the terminal E can select a target object and initiate a sending request for moving the target object from a first area to any one communication channel; any one of the terminal A to the terminal E can also input a preset track which is expected to transmit the target object in any communication channel according to the displayed sending request so as to realize the transmission of the target object; any one of the terminals A to E can also input a preset track which does not want to transmit the target object in any communication channel according to the displayed sending request so as to close the communication channel; in specific application, any one of the terminal users from the terminal a to the terminal E can cover the area of the terminal screen by as much as fifty percent with the palm, and directly close all the communication channels on the terminal, that is, quickly close all the communication channels through very simple operation. It is to be understood that the present embodiment is only one implementation manner, and the implementation manner is used for explaining the present invention, and is not used for limiting the present invention.
