These terms are only used to distinguish one type of information from another. For example, the first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as first information, without departing from the scope of the present specification. The word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at … …" or "when … …" or "in response to a determination", depending on the context.
The inventor finds that according to different application scenes of the AP, for special places such as schools, dormitories, hospitals and hotels, the access of the terminal or continuous flow is not available within 24 hours, if the access condition and the flow condition of the terminal can be detected in real time in the places, the working mode of the AP is properly adjusted, the power consumption of the AP is reduced to the maximum extent on the premise of meeting normal use, and therefore the reduction of the power consumption of the whole network is realized, the cost of customers can be saved, and the energy conservation and the environmental protection can be realized.
To achieve the above object, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a wireless access point AP, as shown in fig. 1, where the AP includes: a flow detection module;
the flow detection module is used for detecting the flow between the AP and the terminal;
s101, obtaining a detection result between the AP and the terminal, which is obtained by the detection of the flow detection module;
s102, adjusting the working mode of the AP according to the detection result of the flow detection module;
wherein the operating modes include: idle mode and non-idle mode.
In this embodiment, the AP may detect a wireless channel between itself and the terminal through the traffic detection software embedded in itself, so as to obtain a traffic detection result between itself and the terminal. In other embodiments, the AP may also implement traffic detection on each channel of the AP through the AC connected to the AP.
In a specific implementation, the administrator may set a first threshold and a second threshold in the AP (or an AC connected to the AP) (in other embodiments, the first threshold and the second threshold may be the same), compare a detection result between the administrator and the terminal obtained by the detection with the first threshold and the second threshold, determine whether the detection result is greater than the first threshold or smaller than the second threshold, and adjust an operation mode of the AP according to the determination result.
In an embodiment, if the determination result is that the detection result is greater than the first threshold, the AP is adjusted to be in the non-idle mode, or if the determination result is that the detection result is less than the second threshold, the AP is adjusted to be in the idle mode.
It should be noted that the detection result may be a sum of detected traffic between the AP and all terminals, and when the sum of the traffic is greater than a first threshold, it indicates that traffic between the AP and each terminal is large, and then the AP is adjusted to be in the non-idle mode, and when the sum of the traffic is less than a second threshold, it indicates that the traffic between the AP and each terminal is small, and then the AP is adjusted to be in the idle mode.
Here, the idle mode and the non-idle mode in this embodiment may be understood as relative modes, and in the idle mode, the number of work flows and the beacon transmission interval of the AP are appropriately reduced to reduce the resource (power) loss of the AP, whereas in the non-idle mode, the number of work flows and the beacon transmission interval of the AP may be set according to default configuration at the time of factory shipment or according to the number of work flows and the beacon transmission interval in the AP full power mode.
In one embodiment, the AP may be configured to have a workflow count of one transmission and one reception in idle mode, a beaconinterval interval of N, where N is a natural number greater than 1, where the beaconinterval may be 100 TUs. And the AP in the non-idle mode may be configured such that the number of workflows is multiple-send-multiple-receive, the beaconing interval is N × beaconinterval, and N is a natural number smaller than 1 and larger than 0.
Therefore, the working mode of the AP can be adjusted in real time through the flow monitoring technology between the AP and the terminal, the working flow number of the AP can be reduced in a low-demand environment to reduce the power of the AP, and the working flow number of the AP is recovered (or improved) in a high-demand environment to meet the service demand.
As the AP may consume a certain resource when performing traffic monitoring, the AP in the embodiment of the present disclosure may further be provided with a terminal detection module, as shown in fig. 2, where the AP includes the terminal detection module and the traffic monitoring module.
The terminal detection module is used for detecting the terminal attribute information of the access AP.
The terminal attribute information may include a and/or b,
a: and accessing the number information of the terminals of the AP.
b: the number of supported spatial streams for a terminal accessing the AP.
The number of supported spatial streams of the terminal is the capability of the terminal to support the number of spatial streams, for example, when the terminal is shipped from a factory and is designed to support one-transceiver, the number of supported spatial streams of the terminal is one-transceiver. For another example, when the terminal is shipped from the factory, it is designed to support two-transceiver and two-transceiver, and then the number of spatial streams supported by the terminal is two-transceiver and two-transceiver.
In this embodiment, before performing step S101, the AP may first obtain the information of the number of terminals accessing the AP through the terminal detecting module.
If the obtained information on the number of terminals is greater than the preset number, there may be a case where the AP needs to process a large amount of service data, or the AP does not need to process a large amount of service data (for example, although the number of access terminals is greater than the preset number, the access terminals do not receive and transmit services), and at this time, step S101 and the subsequent steps may be executed. If it is determined through the steps S101 and subsequent steps that the AP is in the non-idle mode, the AP non-idle mode may be activated (if the AP was in the idle mode at the previous time, it needs to be switched to the non-idle mode, and if the AP was in the non-idle mode at the previous time, it is maintained).
Otherwise, if the number information of the terminals is less than the preset number, it may be determined that the service data that the AP does not need to process is not large, and the AP may be in the idle mode.
In another embodiment, before executing step S101, the AP may first obtain, through the terminal detection module, a number of supported spatial streams of a certain terminal accessing the AP, and if the number of supported spatial streams is greater than a preset number of streams, then execute step S101, for example, the AP is currently in an idle mode, the number of working streams of the AP is one transmission/reception, and when the AP detects, through the terminal detection module, that the number of supported spatial streams of the terminal accessing the AP is two transmissions/reception, it may be considered that there is a situation that the AP in the idle mode cannot meet the terminal requirement, at this time, further execute step S101 and subsequent steps, and if it is determined through step S101 and subsequent steps that the terminal is performing two transmissions/reception but has little traffic, then the AP may continue to be in the idle mode. Otherwise, the AP is switched to a non-idle mode.
It can be seen from the above embodiments that, since the AP resource consumed by the terminal detection module to obtain the terminal attribute is much smaller than the resource of the traffic detected by the traffic detection module, the terminal detection module may be first used to obtain the attribute information of the terminal accessing the AP, and determine whether to enable the traffic detection module according to the attribute information, thereby further reducing the resource consumption of the AP.
