Description

Method for establishing wireless communication connection and related equipment

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of information technology, and more particularly, to a method and related apparatus for establishing a wireless communication connection.

Background

Current terminal devices may support a variety of wireless communication modes, such as bluetooth (bluetooth) communication, Wi-Fi communication, and so on.

Taking bluetooth communication as an example, the roles of two terminal devices supporting bluetooth communication can be divided into a master device and a slave device. The master device establishes a connection by scanning for information broadcast by the slave devices. Specifically, after the bluetooth connection is started, the slave device starts a bluetooth broadcast and broadcasts a bluetooth name; the master device will perform a bluetooth scan and present the scan results on a display device of the master device. The user may select the bluetooth name of the slave device using the input means of the master device. After acquiring the Bluetooth name selected by the user, the master device starts Bluetooth connection with the slave device broadcasting the Bluetooth name.

The above-described connection process requires the user to manually select the device to be connected. Furthermore, if the master device scans for multiple bluetooth names, the user also needs to know the bluetooth name broadcast by the device to be connected. Therefore, if a plurality of similar bluetooth names are present, the user cannot quickly determine the bluetooth name broadcast by the device requiring connection.

Similar to bluetooth communication, the process of establishing a connection through Wi-Fi communication also requires one party to broadcast and one party to scan. Therefore, Wi-Fi communication also has similar problems.

The following briefly describes how the terminal device performs device discovery in several wireless connection modes supported by the terminal device at present.

1, Bluetooth: the wireless communication system is a wireless technology standard and can realize short-distance data exchange between the fixed terminal and the mobile terminal.

The establishment process of the Bluetooth connection comprises device discovery and connection. The device discovery process mainly comprises the following steps: the terminal equipment A is in a visible state and broadcasts a Bluetooth name; the terminal device B first scans for a terminal in a visible state and then selects the terminal device a among the scanned connectable devices. Therefore, in the bluetooth device discovery process, the terminal device may acquire the bluetooth name broadcasted by the peer device.

The Bluetooth referred to in the embodiment of the present application may refer to classic Bluetooth, and may also refer to Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).

A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is a technology for connecting two or more devices to form a Local Area network by using a Wireless technology. Most modern WLANs are based on an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 family standard. Wi-Fi is a marketed brand name for WLAN. The meaning of Wi-Fi and WLAN is not strictly differentiated in the embodiments of the present application. In other words, Wi-Fi and WLAN in the embodiments of the present application both refer to wireless communication technologies based on the IEEE 802.11 series of standards. During Wi-Fi connection establishment, a router may broadcast a Service Set Identifier (SSID). The terminal device may search for SSIDs and select an SSID to be connected among the scanned SSIDs. It can be seen that, in the Wi-Fi connection establishment process, the terminal device may obtain the SSID broadcasted by the router.

In order to help those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, a brief description will be first given of some techniques involved in the technical solutions of the present application.

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a close range connection protocol. NFC information is also transferred by means of electromagnetic inductive coupling in the radio frequency part of the spectrum. NFC typically works for effective distances of less than 10 centimeters and thus has high security. In addition, the NFC has the advantages of high transmission creation speed, high transmission speed, low power consumption, and the like.

NFC tags (tags) are passive devices that do not require a power source. In the case of contacting an NFC reader with an NFC tag (contact is referred to herein as a distance between an NFC device and the NFC tag being smaller than an effective working distance), the NFC tag obtains a small power source from the NFC reader to drive a circuit of the NFC tag, and transfers data stored in the NFC tag to the NFC reader.

Four types of NFC tags are currently defined by the industry, namely Type 1 tags (Tag 1 Type), Type 2 tags (Tag 2 Type), Type 3 tags (Tag 3 Type) and Type 4 tags (Tag 4 Type). Different types of NFC tags differ in their storage capabilities. For example, the storage capacity of the class 1 tag is 96 bytes, and the storage capacity of the class 2 tag is 48 bytes. Different types of NFC tags have different read-write capabilities. For example, type 1 tags and type 2 tags have the ability to be read, rewritten, and may also be configured to be read-only. The type 3 tag and the type 4 tag are read-only tags, and the content stored in the tags is written in the production of the tags or written by a special tag writer.

The embodiment of the application provides a method for establishing wireless communication connection, and the basic principle of the method is as follows: the electronic equipment provided with the NFC reader acquires connection establishment information stored in the NFC label through the NFC reader, wherein the connection establishment information comprises a connection identifier; the electronic device broadcasts the connection identification. And the terminal equipment establishes wireless connection with the electronic equipment through the connection identifier, wherein the connection establishment information is prestored in the terminal equipment.

In other words, in the above technical solution, the connection identifier broadcasted by the electronic device is obtained from the NFC tag, and the terminal device stores the connection identifier in advance. In this way, the terminal device can directly select to establish a wireless connection with the electronic device broadcasting the connection identifier. Thus, the method provided by the embodiment of the application can avoid the need of manually selecting the connection identifier required to establish the wireless connection by the user. According to the technical scheme, the information acquired in the equipment discovery process can be quickly acquired through NFC connection between the equipment, and the repeated and complicated equipment discovery process of the equipment is avoided. Particularly, when the terminal device searches a plurality of devices capable of wireless connection, by using the technical scheme, the user does not need to know the connection identifier broadcasted by the electronic device needing to be connected and does not need to find the broadcasted connection identifier of the electronic device needing to be connected from the searched plurality of connection identifiers. Therefore, the time for establishing the wireless connection can be further saved, the efficiency for establishing the wireless connection is improved, and the user experience is enhanced.

The terminal device referred to in the embodiments of the present application may be a mobile terminal device, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, and the like. The terminal device referred to in the embodiments of the present application may also be a power consumption sensitive device. The power consumption sensitive device referred to in the embodiments of the present application refers to a terminal device that is powered by a battery (usually a rechargeable battery) and has a battery capacity of typically several tens to several hundreds of ma hours. Generally, power consumption sensitive devices using rechargeable batteries are inconvenient to use in a charged state. Therefore, power consumption sensitive devices are generally expected to provide users with as long a service as possible with limited battery capacity. Common power consumption sensitive devices include bluetooth headsets, smart watches, smart bracelets, smart glasses, and the like.

The electronic device referred to in the embodiments of the present application refers to an electronic device that can communicate with the terminal device through wireless connection, and may be a terminal device or another type of electronic device capable of wireless communication. The electronic device is generally not sensitive to power consumption. For example, the electronic device may be directly powered with alternating current, or the electronic device may be normally used in a charged state. For example, the electronic device may be an exercise apparatus (e.g., a treadmill, an elliptical machine, etc.), a bluetooth speaker, etc. Optionally, in some embodiments, the wireless connection established between the electronic device and the terminal device is a bluetooth connection, so that the electronic device can perform bluetooth communication with the terminal device. Optionally, in some embodiments, the wireless connection established by the electronic device with the terminal device may be a WLAN connection (e.g., a Wi-Fi connection), such that the electronic device may perform WLAN communication with the terminal device.

In particular implementations, a terminal may include multiple processors, as one embodiment. Each of these processors may be a single-Core Processor (CPU) or a multi-Core Processor (CPU). A processor herein may refer to one or more terminals, circuits, and/or processing cores for processing data (e.g., computer program instructions).

The memory 120 may be self-contained and coupled to the processor 110 via a communication bus 150. Memory 120 may also be integrated with processor 110.

The memory 120 is also used for storing software programs for implementing the present application, and is controlled by the processor 110 for execution.

The memory 120 is also used to store connection setup information.

The output module 130 may be used to display information input by the user or information provided to the user and various menus of the terminal device 100. The output module 130 may include a display panel 131. Alternatively, the Display panel 131 may be configured in the form of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED), or the like.

Optionally, in some implementations, the terminal device 100 may further include an input device. The input device may include a touch screen. The touch screen may cover the display panel 131. In other words, the input device and the display panel can implement the input and output functions of the terminal apparatus 100 as two independent components.

Alternatively, in other implementations, the display panel 131 may be integrated with a touch screen to implement input and output functions of the terminal device 100.

Optionally, in some implementations, the input device may also include keys.

The communication interface 140, using any transceiver or like device, is used to communicate with other devices or communication networks. The communication interface 140 may include a receiving unit implementing a receiving function and a transmitting unit implementing a transmitting function.

The bluetooth module 112 is integrated with a bluetooth chip, and is suitable for a classic bluetooth protocol and a bluetooth low energy protocol, and is used for supporting the terminal device 110 to establish a bluetooth connection with other devices.

And the WLAN module 113 is integrated with a Wi-Fi chip and is used for supporting the terminal device 110 to establish a WLAN connection with other devices.

For example, if the terminal device does not support WLAN communication, the terminal device may not include the WLAN module 113 as shown in fig. 1.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the NFC tag storing the connection establishment information may be disposed inside the terminal device 100. The NFC tag is arranged in the terminal equipment, namely the NFC tag is arranged in a shell of the terminal equipment. In the case where the NFC tag is provided inside the terminal device, the NFC tag may be a readable and writable NFC tag. In this case, the user can set the connection establishment information stored in the NFC tag by himself or herself. The connection establishment information set by the user may be stored in a memory inside the NFC tag and the terminal device. The NFC tag may also be a read-only NFC tag. In this case, the connection establishment information held in the NFC tag is written into the NFC tag at the production stage. In this case, the connection establishment information may be written into a memory within the terminal device at the stage of its production. As mentioned above, an NFC tag is a passive device that does not require a power source. The NFC tag disposed inside the terminal device does not consume the power of the terminal device. Therefore, the terminal equipment can realize the rapid establishment of wireless connection under the condition of not additionally consuming electric quantity.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the NFC tag storing the connection establishment information may also be disposed outside the terminal device 100. The NFC tag is arranged outside the terminal device, that is, the NFC tag may be attached to a housing of the terminal device by means of adhesion, or the NFC tag may be used as an article independent of the terminal device, for example, arranged inside a card. The user can input the connection establishment information stored in the NFC tag into the terminal device by using the input device of the terminal device, and store the connection establishment information in the memory in the terminal device. The user may also transmit the connection establishment information to the terminal device using a device capable of communicating (wired or wireless communication) with the terminal device, and store the connection establishment information in a memory in the terminal device. For example, the terminal device may be a smart watch. The intelligent watch can be connected with a computer through a data line and is communicated with the computer through the data line. In this case, the user may transmit the connection establishment information to the smart watch through the computer via the data line, and store the connection establishment information in the memory in the smart watch. The NFC tag may be a read-only NFC tag. The connection establishment information stored in the NFC tag is written into the NFC tag at the production stage. Of course, the NFC tag may also be a readable and writable NFC tag, and the NFC tag may write a preset connection establishment message in advance in the production phase. The user may directly use the preset connection establishment information or may also modify the connection establishment information stored in the NFC tag. In the above technical solution, since the NFC tag is disposed outside the terminal device, the terminal device that does not include the NFC tag in hardware can also support the method for establishing a wireless connection provided in the embodiment of the present application.

301, the electronic device performs NFC with the terminal device to obtain connection establishment information stored in the terminal device, and broadcasts a wireless connection broadcast message including a connection identifier. The connection establishment information includes the connection identifier.

Optionally, in some embodiments, an NFC tag is disposed in the terminal device, and the NFC tag stores the connection establishment information. The electronic device may obtain the connection establishment information by reading the NFC tag in the terminal device.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the NFC tag may be disposed outside the terminal device, and the connection establishment information may be stored in a storage device inside the terminal device.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the electronic device may stop broadcasting the wireless connection broadcast message when the time duration for broadcasting the wireless connection broadcast message exceeds a preset time duration and a wireless connection is not established with the terminal device. For example, the electronic device may start a timer after beginning to broadcast the wireless connection broadcast message. If the duration of the timer exceeds a preset duration (e.g., 30 seconds), the electronic device may stop broadcasting the radio connection broadcast message.

302, the terminal device initiates a wireless connection broadcast scan.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the terminal device may initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan if it is determined that an NFC tag inside the terminal device is read. In other words, if the NFC tag is inside the terminal device, the terminal device may determine whether the NFC tag is read. The terminal device may initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan if it is determined that the NFC tag is read. If the terminal device determines that the NFC tag is not read, the terminal device may not need to initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan. Thus, the power of the terminal equipment can be saved.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the terminal device may stop performing the wireless connection broadcast scanning when the time for performing the wireless connection broadcast scanning exceeds a preset time and the terminal device does not detect that the connection identifier is broadcast.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, the user may manually initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan. For example, the user may initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan via an input device of the terminal device.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the terminal device may periodically initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan. For example, the user may set one scan cycle. The terminal device may initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan according to the scan period. For example, the user may set a wireless connection broadcast scan to be initiated every 10 minutes. In this way, the terminal device may initiate the wireless connection broadcast scan every 10 minutes.

303, the terminal device scans the radio connection broadcast message containing the connection identifier through the radio connection broadcast scan.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the connection establishment information may further include a broadcast period. In this case, the electronic device may periodically broadcast the connection identification; correspondingly, the terminal device may perform the wireless connection broadcast scanning periodically, where a period in which the electronic device broadcasts the connection identifier and a period in which the terminal device performs the wireless connection broadcast scanning are the broadcast periods.

304, the terminal device establishes a wireless connection with the electronic device.

The wireless connection may be any of the following connections: bluetooth connection, WLAN connection, etc.

Optionally, in some embodiments, before the terminal device establishes the wireless connection with the electronic device, authentication may be performed between the electronic device and the terminal device. In other words, in some cases, the electronic device establishes the wireless connection with the terminal device in case the authentication is passed. And under the condition that the authentication is not passed, the electronic equipment cannot establish the wireless connection with the terminal equipment.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the authentication process may be implemented by the electronic device.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the connection establishment information further includes verification information (the verification information may also be referred to as a key, and the key may be a preset key or a temporary key generated temporarily). The terminal device and the electronic device can complete the authentication process by using the verification information. For example, the terminal device may transmit the verification information to the electronic device through a temporary connection. The electronic device may compare the verification information read from the NFC tag (for convenience of description, the verification information in the NFC tag is hereinafter referred to as first verification information) with the verification information received through the temporary connection and transmitted by the terminal device (for convenience of description, the verification information received by the electronic device through the temporary connection is hereinafter referred to as second verification information); if the first check information is the same as the second check information, the electronic device can determine that the terminal device passes the identity authentication; if the first check information is different from the second check information, the electronic device may determine that the terminal device fails to perform authentication.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the NFC tag is located inside the terminal device, and the terminal device may perform read-write operation on content held in the NFC tag. In this case, the electronic device may transmit a random number (which may also be referred to as a random code, pairing code, etc.) to the terminal device through the temporary connection, and perform an authentication process according to the random number. For example, the terminal device may write a random number received through the temporary connection into the NFC tag; the electronic device may obtain the random number stored in the NFC tag by reading the NFC tag, and compare the random number sent by the electronic device to the terminal device (for convenience of description, the random number sent by the electronic device to the terminal device is hereinafter referred to as a first random number) with the random number in the NFC tag (for convenience of description, the random number in the NFC tag is hereinafter referred to as a second random number); if the first random number is the same as the second random number, the electronic device may determine that the terminal device passes the authentication; if the first random number is different from the second random number, the electronic device may determine that the terminal device fails to authenticate.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the authentication process may also be performed by the terminal device.

For example, the terminal device may transmit the verification information to the electronic device through a temporary connection. Specifically, the electronic device may read the verification information stored in the NFC tag (for convenience of description, the verification information in the NFC tag is hereinafter referred to as first verification information), and the temporary connection transmits the read first verification information to the terminal device. The terminal device compares the first verification information with verification information transmitted by the electronic device received through the temporary connection (for convenience of description, verification information transmitted by the electronic device received by the terminal device through the temporary connection is hereinafter referred to as third verification information); if the first verification information is the same as the third verification information, the terminal device may determine that the electronic device passes the authentication; if the first verification information is different from the third verification information, the terminal device may determine that the electronic device fails to pass the authentication.

As another example, the random number may be generated by the terminal device. The terminal device may write the generated random number into the NFC tag; the electronic device can obtain the random number stored in the NFC tag by reading the NFC tag, and send the read random number to the terminal device through temporary connection. The terminal device may compare the random number transmitted by the electronic device received through the temporary link (for convenience of description, the random number transmitted by the electronic device to the terminal device is hereinafter referred to as a first random number) with the random number stored in the NFC tag (for convenience of description, the random number in the NFC tag is hereinafter referred to as a second random number); if the first random number is the same as the second random number, the terminal device may determine that the electronic device passes the authentication; if the first random number is different from the second random number, the terminal device may determine that the electronic device fails to authenticate.

In the above example, authentication may pass as long as the check information is the same as one of the random numbers. In other embodiments, the verification information and the random number may be verified simultaneously, so long as the authentication is passed if the verification information and the random number are the same.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the authentication using the authentication check information and the random number may be performed by the same device. For example, verification information verification and random number verification may be performed by the terminal device to determine whether the electronic device is authenticated. As another example, verification information verification and random number verification may be performed by the electronic device to determine whether the terminal device is authenticated.

Alternatively, in other embodiments, the authentication using the verification information and the random number may be performed by a different device. For example, the terminal device may be responsible for verification information verification, and the electronic device may be responsible for random number verification. For another example, the terminal device may be responsible for performing random number verification, and the terminal device may be responsible for performing verification information verification.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the process of authenticating the electronic device with the terminal device may be considered as part of the process of establishing the wireless connection.

In order to help those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the technical solutions of the present application will be described with reference to specific embodiments. It is understood that these specific examples are only for helping those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, and are not intended to limit the technical solutions of the present application.

401. The smart watch utilizes NFC to send connection establishment information to the treadmill.

The treadmill reads connection establishment information stored in an NFC label arranged in the intelligent watch by utilizing an NFC reader arranged in the treadmill, and the connection establishment information can comprise a connection identifier. Since the connection establishment information is used for establishing the bluetooth connection, the connection establishment information may also be referred to as bluetooth interconnection information, bluetooth interconnection parameters, or bluetooth interconnection parameter information.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, the connection identifier may be a bluetooth name or a remote name (remote name).

Optionally, in other embodiments, the connection identifier may be a bluetooth address.

It can be appreciated that the user needs to bring the smart watch close to the NFC reader of the treadmill so that the NFC reader of the treadmill can read the NFC tag provided in the smart watch.

402, the treadmill performs bluetooth broadcasting.

Specifically, the treadmill may broadcast a wireless connection broadcast message via a bluetooth broadcast. The wireless connection broadcast message may include a connection identification. In other words, the treadmill acts as a bluetooth slave Device (Peripheral Device) that broadcasts the connection identifier.

For example, if the connection identifier is a bluetooth name or remote name, the treadmill may broadcast the bluetooth address or remote name as the name of the bluetooth connection.

If the connection identifier is a bluetooth address, the treadmill uses the bluetooth address as the bluetooth address of the treadmill and performs bluetooth broadcast. Alternatively, in another implementation, the connection identifier is a bluetooth address, and the treadmill broadcasts the bluetooth address as the target connection address.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the treadmill may start the bluetooth module and perform bluetooth broadcasting when the NFC reader reads the connection establishment information. In other words, the bluetooth module in the treadmill may be in an off or sleep state before the NFC reader reads the connection establishment information.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the time that the treadmill is on for bluetooth broadcasts is limited. In other words, the treadmill can stop performing the bluetooth broadcast when the duration of performing the bluetooth broadcast exceeds the preset duration and the bluetooth connection is not established. For example, the treadmill may start a timer after the start of a bluetooth broadcast. If the duration of the timer exceeds a preset duration (e.g., 30 seconds) and the treadmill does not establish a bluetooth connection, the treadmill may stop the bluetooth broadcast. In other words, it is temporary that the treadmill performs bluetooth broadcasting.

403, the smart watch performs bluetooth scanning, and establishes bluetooth connection with the treadmill through the connection identifier when a wireless connection broadcast message including the connection identifier is scanned.

In other words, the smart watch may perform bluetooth scanning as a bluetooth master Device (Central Device), and when a connection identifier stored in an NFC tag in the smart watch is scanned, establish a bluetooth connection with the treadmill broadcasting the connection identifier by using the connection identifier.

In other words, the smart watch may determine that the peripheral device may start the bluetooth broadcast with the identification information (e.g., remote name) in the connection establishment information when monitoring that the NFC tag storing the connection establishment information in the smart watch is read. Thus, the smart watch may be bluetooth scanned as a master using the identification information (e.g., remote name).

Optionally, in some embodiments, if the NFC tag is disposed inside the smart watch, the smart watch may start the bluetooth module and perform bluetooth scanning when it is determined that the NFC tag is read.

Optionally, in other embodiments, if the NFC tag is disposed outside the smart watch, the user may manually turn on the bluetooth module in advance.

Through bluetooth scanning, this connection sign can be detected by this smart watch and broadcasted. In this case, this intelligence wrist-watch can directly use this connection sign to establish the bluetooth with this treadmill and be connected.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the connection establishment information may further include security information. The security information may be verification information and/or a random number. In some embodiments, the verification information is a Remote Security management Temporary Key (TK) Value). In this case, before the treadmill establishes the bluetooth connection with the smart watch, the treadmill may perform the authentication according to the security information, and continue to complete the remaining steps of establishing the bluetooth connection after the authentication is passed. The specific process of identity authentication may be performed in the method shown in fig. 3, and thus, a detailed description thereof is omitted.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the connection establishment information may further include a bluetooth broadcast period. In this case, the treadmill may periodically broadcast the connection identification based on the bluetooth broadcast period. The terminal device may also periodically perform bluetooth scanning according to the bluetooth broadcast period.

404, the smart watch informs the user that the bluetooth connection establishment is successful.

For example, in the event that a bluetooth connection is successfully established, the smart watch may alert the user that the bluetooth connection was successful by vibrating, alerting tone, and/or using the smart watch display device.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the treadmill may also alert the user of the successful bluetooth connection via a display device, and/or an alert tone.

405, the smart watch may automatically enter a running interface.

For example, in the case that the bluetooth connection is successfully established, the treadmill may send device indication information to the smart watch through the bluetooth connection, where the device indication information is used to indicate that the electronic device that establishes the bluetooth connection with the smart watch is the treadmill. The intelligent watch can automatically enter a running interface under the condition of receiving the equipment indication information.

For example, the smart watch includes an operating system running on top of hardware and an Application (APP) running on top of an operating system layer. Different functions of the smart watch may be provided by different applications. For example, a time application may provide a clock function. The clock function may include displaying a time interface on a display interface of the smart watch, where information such as time, date, weather, etc. may be displayed. The running application may provide functions related to running, such as timing, acquiring a user's heart rate, calculating calories consumed, calculating steps, and the like. When the running application runs, a running interface can be displayed on the display interface of the intelligent watch, and information such as running time, heart rate, calories consumed and step number can be displayed in the running interface. The spinning application may provide spinning related functions such as timing, capturing a user's heart rate, calculating calories consumed, capturing a cadence, etc. When the spinning application is operated, a spinning interface can be displayed on the display interface of the intelligent watch, and information such as riding time, heart rate, consumed calories and pedaling frequency can be displayed in the spinning interface. When the smart watch is in a non-running application (e.g., a time application, a spinning application, etc.), if the smart watch receives the device indication information, an application running on the smart watch may automatically switch from the non-running application to a running application. In other words, if the smart watch receives the device indication information, the display interface of the smart watch may be automatically switched to the running interface.

Alternatively, in an alternative embodiment, the smart watch is connected to a different device, and may automatically open a different application or automatically enter an interface associated with the application. For example, if the smart watch is connected to the treadmill, the smart watch may automatically display a running interface; if the intelligent watch is connected with the spinning, the intelligent watch can automatically display the motion interface of the spinning.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the user may also manually set an application run by the smart watch, so that the smart watch runs a running application and presents a running interface.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the smart watch may enter the running interface upon determining that the NFC tag is read.

406, the user starts the treadmill.

407, the treadmill informs the smart watch of the start of running.

Under the condition that the user starts the treadmill, this treadmill can be connected through the bluetooth and send to this intelligent wrist-watch and start instruction information, and this start instruction information is used for instructing this treadmill to begin to start.

408, the smart watch enters a sports state.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the smart watch may enter the exercise state upon receiving the start indication from the treadmill.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the user may also manually set the smart watch such that the smart watch enters the sport state.

As described above, the smart watch may start the running application and present a running interface after determining to establish a bluetooth connection with the treadmill. The running application may provide different states, such as a non-motion state and a motion state. In the non-athletic state, the running interface may only present time information, and the running application may not perform the calorie calculation, obtain the heart rate, calculate the running distance, and the like. Under the condition of being in the motion state, the running application can perform calorie calculation, heart rate acquisition, step number calculation and other operations, and the running interface presents the information acquired by the running application. After the smart watch switches from the non-running application to the running application, the running application may be in a non-athletic state. In the case where the running application acquires the start instruction information, the running application may automatically switch from the non-exercise state to the exercise state. Information such as calories, heart rate, number of steps can begin to be presented on the display interface of this smart watch. This application of running can utilize heart rate sensor or external heart rate sensor in the intelligent wrist-watch to acquire user's rhythm of the heart, calculates calorie, calculates the step number etc..

409, the treadmill sends the motion information to the intelligent watch through bluetooth connection.

Optionally, in some embodiments, with the treadmill in the activated state, the treadmill may periodically send athletic information to the smart watch over the bluetooth connection, which may include one or more of time of activation, running speed, distance, grade, etc. The smart watch may save the movement information. The display device of the smart watch may also display the movement information.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the treadmill may also send the exercise information to the smart watch when receiving the instruction from the user. For example, a user instructs the treadmill to send the athletic information to the smart watch via an input device (e.g., a button) in the treadmill.

Optionally, in other embodiments, the treadmill may send the exercise information to the smart watch when the specific information meets a preset condition. For example, the treadmill may send the athletic information to the smart watch with a determination of each kilometer increase in distance. For another example, the treadmill may send the athletic information to the smart watch when the running speed exceeds a predetermined speed.

410, the smart watch sends user data to the treadmill.

Optionally, in some embodiments, in the event that a bluetooth connection is successfully established, the smart watch may periodically send the detected user data of the user to the treadmill over the bluetooth connection. The user data may include heart rate, number of steps, calories consumed, etc. information for the user. The display device of the treadmill can display the acquired user data. The treadmill may also store the user data.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the smart watch may send the detected user data of the user to the treadmill through the bluetooth connection when the detected specific user data reaches a preset condition. For example, the smart watch may send the user data or the user's real-time heart rate to the treadmill if the user's real-time heart rate exceeds a preset threshold. As another example, the smart watch may send the user data or calories consumed by the user to the treadmill if the calories consumed by the user exceed a preset value. The display device of the treadmill can display the acquired user data. The treadmill may also store the user data.

The smart watch and the treadmill may present and automatically refresh the athletic data 411. The motion data may include user data and/or motion information.

For example, the running application running in the smart watch may automatically refresh the exercise data displayed on the running interface according to the acquired user data and exercise information.

The user stops the treadmill 412.

413, the treadmill informs the smart watch that the running is finished.

Optionally, in some embodiments, in a case that the user stops running the treadmill, the treadmill may send stop indication information to the smart watch through the bluetooth connection, where the stop indication information is used to indicate that the treadmill stops starting. And the intelligent watch finishes the motion state under the condition of receiving the stop indication information.

414, the smart watch exits from the exercise state, displays the running details and archives the exercise data.

Optionally, in some embodiments, after finishing the movement, the smart watch may generate first movement data by using the detected user data and the acquired movement information, and store the first movement data. The treadmill may generate second exercise data according to the detected exercise information and the acquired user data, and present the second exercise data on a display device of the treadmill. Optionally, in some embodiments, the content of the first motion data and the second motion data may be the same. For example, running time, total distance, average speed, average heart rate may be included in the first and second athletic data. Optionally, in other embodiments, the content of the first motion data may be different from that of the second motion data. For example, the first athletic data may include running time, average speed, average heart rate, maximum heart rate, total steps, total calories; the second athletic data may include running time, average speed, maximum speed, average grade, maximum grade.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the running application running on the smart watch may automatically exit the exercise state after the exercise is finished. For example, switching from a moving state back to a non-moving state. After switching from the exercise state to the non-exercise state, the running application may generate first exercise data and save the first exercise data.

Optionally, in some embodiments, after the running application switches from the athletic state back to the non-athletic state and saves the first athletic data, the smart watch may switch from the running application to the time application, or the smart watch may switch from the running application back to displaying the application/interface before the running interface, or the smart watch may switch to a Home interface.

It can be seen that the smart watch in the embodiment shown in fig. 4 may correspond to the terminal device shown in fig. 1, and the treadmill in the embodiment shown in fig. 4 corresponds to the electronic device shown in fig. 2.

It can be understood that the smart watch and the treadmill in the method shown in fig. 4 are only a set of terminal devices and electronic devices to which the wireless connection method provided by the embodiment of the present application can be applied. Other terminal devices and electronic devices may also use the wireless connection method provided in the embodiments of the present application to establish a wireless connection. For example, in some embodiments, the treadmill of fig. 4 may be replaced with an exercise machine such as an elliptical machine, a mountain-climbing machine, a spinning bike, and the like. For another example, in some embodiments, the terminal device may be a bluetooth headset, and the electronic device may be a mobile terminal device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a notebook computer. As another example, in some embodiments, the terminal device is a mobile terminal device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a notebook computer, and the electronic device may be a bluetooth speaker.

501, the portable Wi-Fi device reads the connection establishment information stored in the NFC tag of the mobile phone by using the NFC reader installed in the portable Wi-Fi device, where the connection establishment information may include a connection identifier.

502, the portable Wi-Fi device performs Wi-Fi broadcasting with the connection identifier. In other words, the link id is equivalent to an SSID. The portable Wi-Fi equipment broadcasts by the SSID

Optionally, in some embodiments, the on-body Wi-Fi device may start the Wi-Fi module and perform Wi-Fi broadcasting when the NFC reader reads the connection establishment information. In other words, the Wi-Fi module in the on-body Wi-Fi device may be in an off or sleep state before the NFC reader reads the connection establishment information.

503, the mobile phone establishes a Wi-Fi connection with the portable Wi-Fi device through the connection identifier.

Optionally, in some embodiments, if the NFC tag is disposed inside the mobile phone, the mobile phone may turn on the Wi-Fi module and perform Wi-Fi scanning when it is determined that the NFC tag is read.

Optionally, in other embodiments, if the NFC tag is disposed outside the mobile phone, the user may manually turn on the Wi-Fi module in advance.

Through Wi-Fi scanning, the mobile phone can detect that the connection identification is broadcast. In this case, the mobile phone can directly establish a Wi-Fi connection with the on-body Wi-Fi device using the connection identifier.

In this case, the on-body Wi-Fi device can determine that the mobile phone is authenticated according to the key before establishing the bluetooth connection with the mobile phone. In particular, through Wi-Fi scanning, the mobile phone may detect that the connection identification is broadcast. In this case, the mobile phone can establish a temporary connection with the on-body Wi-Fi device. The mobile phone can send the key to the carry-on Wi-Fi device over the temporary connection. And the portable Wi-Fi equipment determines that the mobile phone passes the identity authentication under the condition that the received key is the same as the key acquired by reading the NFC label. In the event that the mobile phone is determined to be authenticated, the on-body Wi-Fi device and the mobile phone can continue to complete the remaining steps of establishing a Wi-Fi connection.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the connection establishment information may further include a Wi-Fi broadcast period. In this case, the on-body Wi-Fi device may periodically broadcast the connection identification based on the Wi-Fi broadcast period. The terminal equipment can also periodically perform Wi-Fi scanning according to the Wi-Fi broadcasting period.

It can be seen that the mobile phone in the embodiment shown in fig. 5 can be equivalent to the terminal device shown in fig. 1, and the carry-on Wi-Fi device in the embodiment shown in fig. 5 is equivalent to the electronic device shown in fig. 2.
