In the embodiment of the application, a wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) module is included in the electronic equipment, and the Wi-Fi module can provide a solution of wireless communication including a Wi-Fi network applied to the electronic equipment. The Wi-Fi module comprises Wi-Fi digital circuits and Wi-Fi analog circuits. The Wi-Fi digital circuit can refer to a microprocessor running Wi-Fi related tasks in the electronic equipment, and can also be called a Wi-Fi chip.

In the method, the electronic equipment distinguishes power consumption differences generated by the plurality of Wi-Fi digital circuit states and the plurality of Wi-Fi analog circuit states, and accuracy of calculating the power consumption of Wi-Fi can be improved.

Wi-Fi in an electronic device may be in multiple overall states. Wherein the overall state of the Wi-Fi is related to the on or off state of the digital circuit of the Wi-Fi and the analog circuit of the Wi-Fi. In one possible implementation, Wi-Fi is active when digital circuitry of the Wi-Fi and analog circuitry of the Wi-Fi are turned on. When the digital circuit of the Wi-Fi is turned on and the analog circuit of the Wi-Fi is turned off, the Wi-Fi is in a light sleep state. When the digital circuit of the Wi-Fi is closed and the analog circuit of the Wi-Fi is closed, the Wi-Fi is in a deep sleep (deep sleep) state.

The following explains concepts (e.g., Wi-Fi digital circuit status, Wi-Fi analog circuit status, various power amplifier statuses) related to the embodiments of the present application.

(1) Wi-Fi digital circuit state

The Wi-Fi digital circuit state comprises a frequency point at which the Wi-Fi digital circuit works, and correspondingly, the plurality of Wi-Fi digital circuit states comprises a plurality of frequency points at which the Wi-Fi digital circuit works.

The number of frequency points of the Wi-Fi digital circuit in the electronic equipment is related to the configuration of software and hardware, and the number of frequency points of the Wi-Fi digital circuit of the electronic equipment with different software and hardware configurations is different. For example, the Wi-Fi digital circuits in electronic devices of different manufacturers have different frequency points. Generally, the number of frequency bins of the Wi-Fi digital circuit supported by the electronic device may be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or other positive integers, which is not limited herein.

Wherein one frequency point corresponds to the frequency of one frequency band. For example, in a GSM network, the frequency intervals are all 200 KHz. Thus, 125 frequency bands are divided from 890MHz, 890.2MHz, 890.4MHz, 890.6MHz, 890.8MHz, 891MHz … 915MHz according to the frequency interval of 200 KHz. The frequency of the electronic device in the GSM network is 3, that is to say the electronic device carrier will receive signals at 890.4MHz and transmit signals at 935.4 MHz.

For electronic equipment with the frequency point number larger than 1, the Wi-Fi digital circuits can work at different frequency points, and the power consumption of the Wi-Fi digital circuits working at different frequency points is different. Within the same time, the higher the frequency corresponding to the working frequency point of the Wi-Fi digital circuit is, the more the power consumption of the Wi-Fi is.

(2) Wi-Fi analog circuit state

The Wi-Fi analog circuit state includes a bandwidth and/or radio frequency state of the Wi-Fi analog circuit. Accordingly, the plurality of Wi-Fi analog circuit states includes the Wi-Fi analog circuit operating at a plurality of bandwidths and the Wi-Fi analog circuit operating at one or more of a plurality of radio frequency states.

The bandwidth of the Wi-Fi analog circuit in the electronic equipment is related to the configuration of software and hardware, and the bandwidth of the Wi-Fi analog circuit of the electronic equipment with different software and hardware configurations is different. Typically, the bandwidth of the Wi-Fi analog circuits supported by the electronic device may be one or more of 20M, 40M, 80M, 160M. Other bandwidths are possible and not limited herein. For an electronic device supporting multiple bandwidths of Wi-Fi analog circuits, the Wi-Fi analog circuits can work in different bandwidths and the power consumption of the Wi-Fi analog circuits is different when the Wi-Fi analog circuits work in different bandwidths. The larger the bandwidth of the Wi-Fi analog circuit in the same time, the faster the data transmission rate of the physical layer and/or the data link layer of the Wi-Fi analog circuit, and the more the Wi-Fi consumes power.

The radio frequency state of a Wi-Fi analog circuit in the electronic equipment is related to the configuration of software and hardware, and the radio frequency state of a Wi-Fi digital circuit supported by the electronic equipment with different software and hardware configurations is different. Generally, the radio frequency state of the Wi-Fi analog circuits supported by the electronic device may be one or more of a single radio frequency state, a dual radio frequency state. Aiming at an electronic device supporting multiple radio frequency states of a Wi-Fi analog circuit, the Wi-Fi analog circuit can work in different radio frequency states, and the power consumption of the Wi-Fi analog circuit is different when the Wi-Fi analog circuit works in different radio frequency states. In the same time, the larger the number of radio frequency channels in the radio frequency state of the Wi-Fi analog circuit is, the larger the power consumption of Wi-Fi is. For example, the power consumption of Wi-Fi in which the Wi-Fi analog circuit operates in a dual radio frequency state is greater than the power consumption of Wi-Fi in which the Wi-Fi analog circuit operates in a single radio frequency state at the same time.

(3) Multiple states of a power amplifier

Wi-Fi analog circuitry in an electronic device includes a power amplifier that amplifies a transmit signal sent by the electronic device over Wi-Fi that contains a data packet. The state of a power amplifier of a Wi-Fi analog circuit in an electronic device is related to a transmit power of the power amplifier or a transmit rate of the power amplifier. The plurality of states of the power amplifier include the power amplifier operating at a plurality of transmit powers or the power amplifier operating at a plurality of transmit rates. The power amplifier of the Wi-Fi analog circuit can work in different states, and the power consumption of the power amplifier is different when the power amplifier works in different states. When the data packet is transmitted through the Wi-Fi, the higher the transmitting power of the power amplifier is, the more the power consumption of the Wi-Fi is. Or, the faster the transmission rate of the power amplifier is, the more the Wi-Fi consumes power in the same time. Or, in the process of sending the same data frame, the higher the transmission power of the power amplifier is, the more the power consumption of the Wi-Fi is. Or, the faster the transmission rate of the power amplifier is, the more the Wi-Fi power consumption is during the transmission of the same data frame.
