Detailed Description

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

The main solution of the embodiment of the invention is as follows: receiving and caching a plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade files one by one; in the process of caching a plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, the cached data packets are synchronously sent to each earphone in the earphone set until all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are cached and sent to each earphone, so that each earphone executes upgrade operation based on all the data packets corresponding to the received upgrade file.

In the prior art, when the earphone set is upgraded, the computer generally adopts an upgrading mode that the computer sends an upgrading file to the earphone through the charging box. In the process, the charging box is connected with the earphones, and when the charging box receives the upgrading data sent by the computer, the data are instantly forwarded to the earphones connected with the charging box, so that the charging box can only execute upgrading operation on one earphone at a time, different earphones in the earphone set can only execute the upgrading operation in sequence, and the upgrading efficiency of the TWS earphones is low.

The invention provides the solution, and aims to enable upgrading devices such as a charging box and the like to synchronously send data required by upgrading to two earphones, realize synchronous upgrading of earphone sets and improve the upgrading efficiency of the earphone sets.

The invention provides an earphone upgrading device 1000, which is used for upgrading earphones, in particular earphone sets comprising more than one earphone. Here, the earphone upgrade apparatus 1000 may be any apparatus, and only the earphone may be upgraded. In this embodiment, the headset upgrading device 1000 may be a charging box of a headset, so as to achieve both the upgrading function and the charging function required by the headset.

In an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1, a headset upgrading apparatus 1000 includes: a processor 1001 (e.g., a CPU), a memory 1002 connected to the processor 1001, and the like. The memory 1002 may be a high-speed RAM memory or a non-volatile memory (e.g., a disk memory). The memory 1002 may alternatively be a storage device separate from the processor 1001. The memory 1002 may be provided with a plurality of buffer areas for data buffering.

Wherein the processor 1001 is connected to the terminal 01 providing the upgrade file. Further, the processor 1001 is also connected to each earphone 21 in the earphone set 2.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the configuration of the device shown in fig. 1 is not intended to be limiting of the device and may include more or fewer components than those shown, or some components may be combined, or a different arrangement of components.

As shown in fig. 1, a headset upgrade program may be included in the memory 1002, which is a readable storage medium. In the apparatus shown in fig. 1, the processor 1001 may be configured to call a headset upgrading program stored in the memory 1002 and perform operations of the relevant steps of the headset upgrading method in the following embodiments.

Based on the earphone upgrading device, the invention also provides an earphone upgrading method, which is used for upgrading the earphone, in particular to upgrading an earphone set comprising more than one earphone. The earphone upgrading method is applied to the earphone upgrading device and can be used for upgrading each earphone in an earphone set which is in communication connection with the earphone upgrading device.

Referring to fig. 2, an embodiment of the earphone upgrading method of the present invention is provided, where the earphone upgrading method includes:

step S10, receiving and caching a plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade files one by one;

when the earphone upgrading device such as a charging box receives a setting instruction, the earphone upgrading device can enter an upgrading mode so as to upgrade the connected earphone set. In the upgrade mode, an earphone upgrade apparatus such as a charging box receives a data packet of an upgrade file step by step from a terminal providing the upgrade file. Because the upgrade file is generally large, the terminal can divide the upgrade file into a plurality of data packets (for example, 1000 data packets), and send the data packets to the earphone upgrading device such as a charging box one by one. Based on this, in the upgrade mode, the charging box sequentially receives the data packets of the upgrade file sent from the terminal providing the upgrade file, and when any one of the data packets is received, the charging box does not immediately forward the data packet to the earphone, but buffers the received data packet, and buffers the data packet in the buffer area of the memory.

The terminal can actively send a data packet to the earphone upgrading devices such as the charging box, and the data packet can also be returned after receiving a request sent by the earphone upgrading devices such as the charging box, so that the earphone upgrading devices such as the charging box can upgrade the earphones in the earphone set based on the received data packet.

Step S20, in the process of caching the plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, synchronously sending the cached data packets to each earphone in the earphone set until all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are cached and sent to each earphone, so that each earphone executes the upgrade operation based on all the data packets corresponding to the received upgrade file.

In the process of receiving and buffering the data packets one by one in step S10, the buffered data packets are synchronously transmitted to each earphone of the earphone group. Specifically, when the data packets of at least one upgrade file are received and cached, and the number of the cached data packets is less than the total number of the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, the data packets that have not been received by the earphones in the earphone set may be determined in the cached data packets, and the data packets may be sent to each earphone in the earphone set respectively. After completing the transmission of one buffered data packet, the next buffered data packet that is not transmitted to the headset may continue to be transmitted to the headset. That is, all the data packets corresponding to the headset files do not need to be cached completely, and the cached data packets can be sent to each headset of the headset group one by one.

The earphone upgrading device such as the charging box can actively send the cached data packet to each earphone in the earphone set, and can also return the corresponding data packet to the corresponding earphone after receiving the request sent by each earphone in the earphone set.

In the process of receiving and sending the data packets, if all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are not cached completely, the process of receiving and caching the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file one by one is maintained, if all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are received and cached, whether the cached data packets are all sent to each earphone in the earphone set or not is judged, and if all the data packets are sent to each earphone, each earphone in the earphone set can be considered to have received the complete upgrade file; if the data packets which are not sent to the earphones in the earphone set exist in the cached data packets, the data packets which are not sent can be continuously sent to the corresponding earphones, and after the data packets are sent, whether the cached data packets are all sent to each earphone in the earphone set can be judged.

When the upgrade file is divided into N data packets, if the number of the received and cached data packets is N, all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are cached completely, and if the number of the received and cached data packets is less than N, the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are not cached completely. When the number of the buffered data packets sent to each earphone in the earphone set is N, and the buffered data packets are sent to each earphone in the earphone set; if the number of the buffered data packets sent to any earphone in the earphone set is less than N, the buffered data packets are not sent to the earphones in the earphone set.

It should be noted that, the receiving and caching of the data packet and the sending of the data packet are two processes that are not affected each other, and the earphone upgrading device such as the charging box can synchronously send the data packet while receiving and caching the data packet from the terminal providing the upgrade file.

The method for upgrading the earphones, provided by the embodiment of the invention, comprises the steps of receiving and caching a plurality of data packets corresponding to an upgrade file one by one, and synchronously sending the cached data packets to each earphone in an earphone set in the process of caching the plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade file until all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are cached and sent to each earphone, so that each earphone executes upgrade operation based on all the data packets corresponding to the received upgrade file. In the upgrading mode, the upgrading file is not forwarded to the earphones in real time any more, but a plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrading file are received and cached step by step, the cached data packets are respectively sent to each earphone of the earphone set in the process of caching the data packets step by step, so that each earphone in the earphone set can synchronously receive the upgrading file, each earphone can receive the upgrading data without waiting for other earphones to receive the whole upgrading file, each earphone can execute upgrading operation after receiving the whole upgrading file, and the time spent on upgrading the whole earphone set is effectively shortened. By the mode, when the upgrading device such as the charging box is adopted to execute upgrading operation for the earphone set, the data required by upgrading can be synchronously sent to the two earphones, the synchronous upgrading of the earphone set is realized, and therefore the upgrading efficiency of the earphone set is effectively improved.

Further, based on the above embodiment, another embodiment of the method for upgrading the earphone of the present application is provided. In another embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the step of synchronously transmitting the buffered data packets to each earphone in the earphone set in step S20 includes:

step S21, when first request information is received, determining a target data packet which needs to be sent to the earphone corresponding to the first request information in the cached data packets; the first request information is sent by each earphone when not receiving all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file;

in the upgrade mode, when the number of data packets corresponding to the upgrade file received by each earphone in the earphone set is smaller than the total number of data packets of the upgrade file, first request information may be sent to the earphone upgrade device. Each earphone can send corresponding first request information according to the actual receiving condition of the earphone.

When the first request information is received, the earphone requirement corresponding to the first request information can be considered to acquire the data packet of the upgrade file, whether the data packet which is not received by the earphone corresponding to the first request information exists in the currently cached data packet or not can be judged, if yes, the corresponding data packet can be used as a target data packet which needs to be sent to the earphone corresponding to the first request information, and if not, a corresponding message can be sent to inform the earphone so that the earphone can further respond.

Specifically, there may be one or more than one determined target data packet according to the actual situation. In order to ensure the integrity of the data packets received by the headset. Each earphone of the earphone set can continuously send first request information before receiving all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, and each first request information corresponds to a data packet requesting for one upgrade file. Specifically, after each earphone of the earphone set sends the first request message and receives one data packet returned based on the first request message, the first request message may be continuously sent to receive the next data packet until the earphone receives all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file. Based on this, when the earphone upgrading device receives a first request message, the buffered data comprises a data packet which is determined not to be sent to the earphone corresponding to the first request message as a target data packet.

Step S22, sending the target data packet to the earphone corresponding to the first request information.

When one target data packet exists, the target data packet can be directly sent to the earphone corresponding to the first request information; when the number of the target data packets is more than one, the target data packets can be sequentially sent to the earphones corresponding to the first request information.

In this embodiment, the data packet of the upgrade file is sent to the corresponding earphone after the first request message is received, so that the earphone upgrade device can accurately know the upgrade requirement of the earphone and send corresponding upgrade data to the corresponding earphone, and the synchronous upgrade of more than one earphone sending the first request message can be realized while the accuracy of sending the upgrade file is ensured.

Specifically, step S21 specifically includes:

step S211, when receiving the first request message, extracting a first packet index in the first request message; the first data packet index is information generated by the earphone corresponding to the first request information according to the number of the received data packets.

In the earphone upgrading device, each time a data packet is received and buffered, an index can be established for the data packet. Different packets have different indices. The index of the first data packet of the defined buffer memory is 0, and the indexes of the subsequently received data packets are sequentially increased by 1. I.e., the index of the first packet buffered is 0, the index of the second packet buffered is 1, the index of the third packet buffered is 2, and so on.

In each earphone of the earphone set, each time a data packet sent by one earphone upgrading device is received, an index can be established for the data packet. Different packets have different indices. I.e., the index of the first packet received is 0, the index of the second packet received is 1, the index of the third packet received is 2, and so on.

Based on this, the headset may determine the next packet index that needs to be received as the first packet index herein based on the reception request of its current packet (e.g., the number of packets of the received upgrade file). For example, the total amount of the data packets of the upgrade file received by the earphone can be obtained by obtaining the maximum value of the index of the data packet currently established by the earphone, and the obtained maximum value of the index is increased by 1 to be used as the index of the next data packet to be received, so as to obtain the first data packet index. By sending a first request message containing the first packet index, the headset upgrading device can specify which next packet is required by the headset.

When receiving the first request message, before extracting the data packet index in the request message, performing cyclic redundancy check (CRC check) on the first request message, and performing the step of extracting the first data packet index in the first request message only when the check is passed; if the verification fails, sending a second message to the earphone corresponding to the first request message, so that the earphone corresponding to the first request message resends the first request message containing the same index as the index of the first data packet at the current time, that is, if the current first request message contains the index M, the earphone resends the first request message containing the index M immediately after receiving the second message. Here, the cyclic redundancy check can ensure the accuracy of the first request information, improve the accuracy of the earphone upgrading device in sending a data packet to the corresponding earphone based on the first request information, and ensure that the earphone to be upgraded can accurately and effectively receive the upgrade file required by the earphone.

Step S212, in the cached data packets, taking the data packet corresponding to the first data packet index as the target data packet.

After receiving the first request information sent by any earphone, the earphone upgrading device can extract the first data packet index therein, and match the obtained first data packet index with the index corresponding to the cached data packet. When the index corresponding to the cached data packet includes the first data packet index in the current first request message, the cached data packet corresponding to the first data packet index is regarded as the data packet corresponding to the first data packet index, and the cached data packet corresponding to the first data packet index is used as the target data packet. When the index corresponding to the cached data packet does not have the first data packet index in the current first request information, the data packet corresponding to the first data packet index does not exist in the cached data packet, and it can be considered that the data packet required by the earphone is not cached from the terminal providing the upgrade file, the first message can be sent to the earphone corresponding to the first request information, so that the earphone corresponding to the first request information resends the first request information containing the same index as the current first data packet index after the first time period, that is, the current first request information contains the index M, and the earphone resends the first request information containing the index M immediately after receiving the second message, thereby ensuring that the earphone can receive each required data packet, and ensuring the validity of the earphone for receiving the data packet of the upgrade file and the integrity.

For example, when the earphone set includes a first earphone and a second earphone, if a number of data packets received by the first earphone is a, the index of the first data packet is a +1, the first earphone can send first request information of a +1 to the earphone upgrading device, and the earphone upgrading device can send the data packet with the index of a +1 to the first earphone after receiving the first request information; if the number of the data packets received by the second earphone is B, the index of the first data packet is B +1, the first earphone can send first request information of B +1 to the earphone upgrading device, and the earphone upgrading device can send the data packet with the index of B +1 to the first earphone after receiving the first request information. The communication speed between the earphone A and the earphone upgrading device is higher than that between the earphone B and the earphone upgrading device, and if A is higher than B, the A is possibly larger than B.

Further, the foregoing embodiment provides another embodiment of the method for upgrading an earphone of the present application. In yet another embodiment, referring to fig. 4, the headset upgrading method further includes the steps of:

step S30, in the process of caching a plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, when the received data includes the set flag bit, it is determined that all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are cached completely.

The received data sent by the terminal providing the upgrade file includes a set flag bit, which indicates that the terminal has sent all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, that is, all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file have been cached before the set flag bit appears. In addition, if the received data does not include the set flag bit during the process of receiving and caching the plurality of data packets corresponding to the upgrade file one by one, the execution of step S10 may be maintained.

For example, the first byte in the received data may be 1, defined as a set flag bit. The first byte of the data packet in the received upgrade file can be 0 or the first bytes of other data packets are 0 except the first byte of the last data packet of the upgrade file is 1. If the first byte in the received data is 1, it can be considered that all the data packets in the upgrade file have been sent.

Step S40, judging whether the cached data packet has a data packet which is not sent to the earphone;

if there is a data packet that is not sent to the earphone, the step S21 is executed, or the data packet may be directly sent to the corresponding earphone; if all the buffered packets have been sent to the headset packets, step S50 may be executed.

Step S50, setting the buffer size to 0 to enter a first state, wherein the first state is a state of data real-time interaction between the terminal providing the upgrade file and the earphone;

in the first state, the earphone upgrading device receives data sent by the terminal providing the upgrading file, does not perform caching, and directly forwards the data to the earphone.

In addition, in other embodiments, step S50 may be performed after step S30 without performing step S40. For example, after a certain time interval after step S30 is ensured to provide enough time for the buffered data packets to be transmitted to the headset, step S50 is performed.

Step S60, receiving the verification information corresponding to the upgrade file sent by the terminal and sending the verification information to each earphone;

the verification information is generated specifically according to the upgrade file. The verification information of the upgrade files is different. The verification information can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the entire data length of the upgrade file may be used as the check information. The verification information can be directly and respectively sent to the two earphones, or the earphone which receives the verification information can forward the verification information to the earphone which does not receive the verification information after the verification information is sent to one earphone.

Step S70, obtaining the verification result returned by each earphone based on the verification information;

after the verification information received by each earphone, corresponding characteristic information can be generated based on the upgrade file formed by the data packets of all the upgrade files received by each earphone. And judging whether the characteristic information is matched with the verification information or not, and feeding back the judgment result serving as a verification result to the earphone upgrading device. The matching of the characteristic information and the verification information can indicate that the earphone successfully receives the same upgrading data as the upgrading file provided by the terminal; the feature information is not matched with the verification information, which can indicate that the earphone does not successfully receive the same upgrading data as the upgrading file provided by the terminal. After the characteristic information is matched with the verification information, the earphone can execute upgrading operation based on an upgrading file formed by the received data packets of all upgrading files; if not, the upgrade operation can not be executed based on the received upgrade data, so that the upgradable accuracy of the earphone is ensured.

Step S80, generating a third message according to each verification result, and sending the third message to the terminal, so that the terminal determines the receiving status of each earphone with respect to the upgrade file according to the third message.

Specifically, the verification results returned by all the earphones in the earphone group can be combined, and a corresponding message is generated and sent to the terminal providing the upgrade file. The terminal analyzes the third message, so that whether each earphone of the earphone set successfully receives the upgrade data or not can be known, whether the received upgrade data is accurate or not can be known, corresponding prompt information can be further output, the upgrade condition of the earphone set can be monitored, the terminal or a user of the terminal can further handle the upgrade condition in time, and the upgrade success of each earphone of the earphone set can be guaranteed.

In this embodiment, whether the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are all cached is identified based on the set identification bits sent by the terminal providing the upgrade file, and the process of sending the data packets to the earphone is further controlled after caching is completed, so that the accuracy of transmission of the whole upgrade file is ensured, and the accuracy of performing upgrade operation on the earphone in the earphone set through the earphone upgrade device is realized.

After all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are judged to be completely cached, corresponding messages (such as the maximum value of the current index of the cached data packets) can be sent to each earphone in the earphone set, so that the earphones can know the total number of the data packets in the upgrade file required to be received and the like, and if the number of the data packets received by the earphones does not reach the total number, the first request information can be continuously sent; if the total number is reached, the first request information is not sent any more, but all the data packets corresponding to the received upgrade file are directly adopted to execute the upgrade operation, or the upgrade operation is executed by adopting all the data packets corresponding to the received upgrade file after the verification is passed based on the verification information, so that the integrity of the upgrade file received by the earphone is further ensured.

Further, based on any of the above embodiments, a further embodiment of the method for upgrading the earphone of the present application is provided. In this embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the step S10 includes:

step S11, judging whether a buffer area in an idle state exists;

if yes, go to step S12; if not, execution returns to execution step S11.

Step S12, sending second request information to the terminal providing the upgrade file;

the second request information may request a data package of one or more upgrade files according to actual circumstances. In this embodiment, a second request message requests a package for upgrading a file in a terminal. Based on this, in order to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the entire upgrade file transmission, the second request information may be generated based on the index of the cached packets (i.e., the number of cached packets). Specifically, the index of the next data packet to be received may be obtained as the index of the second data packet according to the maximum value of the currently generated cached data packet. And sending second request information comprising a second data packet index to the terminal so that the terminal can know which data packet needs to be sent to the earphone upgrading device next, and accurate transmission of the data packet of the upgrading file is realized.

Step S13, receiving a data packet returned by the terminal based on the second request message;

the terminal can send the second request information to the earphone upgrading device to return one or more than one data packet of the upgrading file after receiving the second request information. Specifically, in order to ensure the accuracy and the integrity of the transmission of the whole upgrade file, the terminal returns a data packet of the upgrade file every time the terminal receives a second request message. Specifically, the terminal may extract the second packet index in the second request message, and query the corresponding packet based on the second packet index to return. Here, the terminal may set up an index for each packet in the upgrade file corresponding to a set-up rule of the packet index in the headset upgrade apparatus. The index of the same data packet at the terminal is the same as the index in the headset upgrading device.

And when the data packet returned by the terminal based on the second request information is not received within the second duration, returning to the step of judging whether the buffer area in the idle state exists or not, and exiting the upgrading process of the earphone group until the number of times of returning reaches a set value. Here, when there is no return packet for a plurality of requests, it may be considered that there is an abnormality in the transmission of the upgrade file between the headphone upgrading device and the terminal, and the upgrade operation cannot be performed on the headphone set, so that the upgrade of the headphone set may be stopped.

Step S14, buffering the received packet in a buffer in an idle state; after that, the flow returns to step S11.

The buffer area in the idle state means that the buffer area has a space for buffering, and data is effectively buffered. One buffer area correspondingly buffers one data packet.

In order to ensure the accuracy of the received data packet and further improve the success rate of headset upgrade, before step S14, cyclic redundancy check is performed on the received data packet; if the verification is passed, the step of caching the received data packet in a cache area in an idle state is executed; and if the verification is not passed, returning to the step of sending the second request information to the terminal providing the upgrade file so as to request the same data packet again.

In this embodiment, when it is ensured that the earphone upgrading device has a buffer area in an idle state, the data packet of the upgrade file is requested from the terminal, so that the validity of receiving and buffering the data packet of the upgrade file by the earphone upgrading device is ensured, and the reliability of the earphone set upgrading process is improved.

Furthermore, the number of the buffer areas for buffering the data packets in the earphone upgrading device is not always matched with the number of the data packets, and the number of the buffer areas is enough, so that the receiving of the data packets is not affected, and if the number of the buffer areas is smaller than the weight of the data packets in the upgrading file, the earphone upgrading device cannot continuously receive and buffer the data packets of the upgrading file. Based on this, when the number of the buffer areas for buffering the data packets is smaller than the number of the data packets, after the step of sending the target data packet to the earphone corresponding to the first request message, the method further includes: judging whether the target data packets are all sent to each earphone in the earphone set; if so, deleting the target data packet to enable the cache region where the target data packet is located to enter an idle state; if not, the target data packet is reserved. Here, after the headset upgrading apparatus transmits the data packet to the corresponding headset, the index of the data packet may be recorded. Different headsets in the headset may have different sent records. If the index corresponding to the target data packet is recorded in the sent record of each earphone, the target data packet can be considered to be sent to each earphone in the earphone set, and the data packet can be deleted; if the index corresponding to the target data packet is not recorded in the sent record of any earphone, the data packet can be reserved. After the duration is set after the data packet is reserved, the first request information containing the data packet index sent by the corresponding earphone is not received, and if the earphone is considered to have an abnormal upgrading condition, the data packet can be deleted, so that other earphones which are not abnormal can be upgraded normally.

Based on this, step S11 specifically includes:

step S111, acquiring a first number of buffered data packets, and acquiring a second number of data packets sent to each earphone;

the first number of buffered data packets may be obtained based on an index established by the headset upgrading device based on the buffered data packets, and the maximum value of the index may be taken as the first number here.

The number of data packets sent to each earphone can be obtained through feedback information of the earphones, and can also be obtained through sending records of the earphone upgrading device to the data packets of each earphone.

Step S112, determining the difference value between the first quantity and the second quantity;

step S113, judging whether the difference value is smaller than the number of the cache regions;

when the difference is smaller than the number of the buffer areas, executing step S114; when the difference is greater than or equal to the number of buffers, step S115 is performed.

Step S114, judging that a buffer area in an idle state exists;

in step S115, it is determined that there is no buffer in an idle state.

Because the data packets sent to each earphone are deleted, the difference value between the first quantity and the second quantity can reflect the number of occupied cache regions of the data packets which are not sent to the earphones currently, and the difference value between the first quantity and the second quantity and the number of the cache regions can accurately reflect whether the idle cache regions exist or not, so that the effectiveness of receiving and caching the data packets of the upgrade files is ensured, and the reliability of the upgrade process of the earphone set is improved.

Since each earphone in the earphone set can independently request the transmission of the data packet by sending the corresponding first request information according to the receiving condition of the data packet, and the communication speed between each earphone and the earphone upgrading device, the data processing speed of each earphone, and the like are different, the progress of the data packets requested by different earphones may be different (for example, when the first earphone requests the xth data packet, the second earphone may request x +3 data packets). Based on this, the step of obtaining a second number of data packets that have been sent to each of the headsets may comprise: acquiring a third number of transmitted data packets corresponding to each earphone in the earphone set; and taking the third quantity with the minimum numerical value as the second quantity, and based on the second quantity, ensuring that the obtained second quantity can accurately represent the quantity of the data packets which are all sent to each earphone, and deleting the data packets which are all sent to each earphone in combination, wherein the difference value between the first quantity and the second quantity can accurately reflect the number of the cache regions occupied by the data packets which are not sent to the earphones currently, so that the idle state of the cache regions can be accurately reflected by comparing the difference value between the first quantity and the second quantity with the quantity of the cache regions, the effectiveness of receiving and caching the data packets of the upgrade file is further improved, and the reliability of the upgrade process of the earphone group is improved.

after the earphone upgrading device enters the upgrading mode, enabling information can be sent to the earphone, and after the enabling information is received, the earphone can send first request information to the earphone upgrading device to request for the data packet cached in the earphone upgrading device. Each first request message may request the data packets cached in one or more than one headset upgrading devices according to actual requirements.

After step S100, after determining that the headset receives all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, step S200 is performed.

And step S200, executing upgrading operation based on all data packets corresponding to the received upgrading files.

After determining that the earphone receives all the data packets corresponding to the upgrade file, the earphone can directly execute the upgrade operation, or can check the received upgrade file, and execute the upgrade operation after the check is passed.

Specifically, after determining that all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file are received, before step S200, verification information sent by the earphone upgrade device is received;

judging whether the characteristic information of all data packets corresponding to the received upgrade file is matched with the verification information or not to obtain a judgment result; and generating a verification result according to the judgment result and feeding the verification result back to the earphone upgrading device so that the earphone upgrading device generates a third message according to the verification result and sends the third message to a terminal providing the upgrading file, and the terminal determines the receiving state of the earphone about the upgrading file according to the third message.

In order to ensure the integrity of the data packets of the upgrade file, especially when a first request message requests a data packet, after step S100, it may be determined whether the earphone receives all data packets corresponding to the upgrade file; if not, returning to execute the step S100; if yes, go to step S200.
