Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

Fig. 1 is a schematic flowchart of an apparatus connection method shown in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 1, the apparatus connection method of the embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to a first apparatus, and specifically includes the following steps:

s11, in response to detecting the first event, establishing a first communication connection with the second device based on the first wireless signal.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first device may be a mobile phone, a notebook, a game console, a wearable device, a virtual reality device, a personal digital assistant, a notebook, a tablet, a television terminal, an audio device, an AI human interaction device, a bluetooth device, or the like. The bluetooth device here includes a bluetooth headset and the like.

Correspondingly, the second device may be a mobile phone, a notebook, a game console, a wearable device, a virtual reality device, a personal digital assistant, a notebook, a tablet, a television terminal, an audio device, an AI human machine interaction device, a bluetooth device, or the like.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the first device and the second device both have the capability of transceiving the first wireless signal, the first wireless signal may be an ultrasonic signal, and the frequency of the first wireless signal is usually between 2MHz and 10 MHz. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, existing components of the first device and the second device may be used as the ultrasonic signal transmitter, for example, the audio processing component of the first device and the second device may be used as the ultrasonic signal transmitter, where the audio processing component includes an earphone/speaker/earphone, etc. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that by modifying the circuits of the earphones, the speakers, and the earphones of the first and second devices, the earphones, the speakers, and the like can be modified into the ultrasonic signal transmitter, for example, by controlling the power supply modes of the above components, the transmission of the ultrasonic signal can be realized. As another implementation manner, the first wireless signal may be transmitted and received by directly mounting ultrasonic signal transceivers on the first device and the second device. In addition, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a Microphone (MIC)/peripheral device such as an earphone MIC of the first device and the second device may be used as an ultrasonic signal receiver, and the ultrasonic signal communication of the embodiment of the present disclosure may be implemented by receiving an ultrasonic signal transmitted by another device. Taking the device as a bluetooth headset as an example, because the left and right sound channels of the headset are also equivalent to a small loudspeaker, and many headsets are also provided with MIC, the receiving function of the ultrasonic signals can be realized only by adding a small processor on the headset and running related algorithms, and the interaction of bluetooth connection related parameters can be performed through a wireless channel established by the ultrasonic signals.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the ultrasonic signal transmitter and the ultrasonic signal receiver may be replaced by a Near Field Communication (NFC) reader without considering the cost and the volume of the first device and the second device, and the first device and the second device communicate with each other by NFC. The disclosed embodiment preferably realizes the establishment of the first communication connection through the ultrasonic signal transceiver, and realizes the interaction of the related information of the second communication connection based on the first communication connection, so as to establish the second communication connection more quickly.

At present, an ultrasonic signal transceiver is not used in an electronic device due to the reasons that the frequency is low, the transmission distance is short, the transmission angle is wide, the reliability is reduced along with the increase of the transmission distance, the power consumption is increased, and the like. In the embodiment of the disclosure, through slightly modifying circuits such as a receiver, a loudspeaker, an earphone and the like of the electronic equipment, the components can be modified into an ultrasonic signal transceiver, and the equipment receives ultrasonic signals through an MIC/earphone MIC, so that the ultrasonic signals are transmitted and received, and the communication between the equipment is realized.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the establishing a first communication connection with a second device based on a first wireless signal includes: the method comprises the steps of receiving an ultrasonic signal sent by the second device through a microphone or microphone accessory of the first device, such as an earphone MIC, synchronizing based on the received ultrasonic signal, sending the ultrasonic signal through an audio processing component of the first device, such as an earphone/loudspeaker/earphone or the like or an ultrasonic emitter, and establishing the first communication connection with the second device.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, detecting a first event includes:

detecting that a signal strength of the received first wireless signal exceeds a first threshold; specifically, the signal strength of the first wireless signal exceeding a first threshold includes: detecting that the power of the received first wireless signal exceeds a first set threshold; when the device detects that the receiving power of a first wireless signal sent by other devices exceeds a first threshold value, the other devices are determined to be close to each other, Bluetooth or WIFI connection can be established, at the moment, first communication connection is established between the devices based on the first wireless signal, and Bluetooth or WIFI connection preparation is carried out. Of course, as another implementation manner, the detection of the first event may also be the detection of the amplitude of the received first wireless signal exceeding a second set threshold. In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the amplitude of the signal is large, the received power is also large, and the proximity of other devices can be determined through the amplitude, so as to determine whether to open the bluetooth or WIFI connection.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the first wireless signal is an ultrasonic signal, the detection distance of the ultrasonic signal needs to be controlled within 1 to 5cm, so that the reliability of ultrasonic signal detection can be increased, and when the distance between two devices is kept within 1 to 5cm, a first communication connection is established between the two devices based on the ultrasonic signal. As an implementation manner, the ultrasonic signal transceiver transmits a detection signal once in 1 second in a default condition, receives the detection signal transmitted by other equipment in real time, wakes up the system if the amplitude of the detected detection signal exceeds a second threshold value, and increases the transmission interval of the ultrasonic signal transceiver so as to enable the two equipment to perform channel matching and establish a first communication connection, thereby realizing information interaction.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, detecting the first event may further include detecting a first physical parameter. Here, the first physical parameter may be a magnetic field strength. The detecting a first physical parameter includes: detecting, by the magnetic field sensor, a magnetic field strength exceeding a third set threshold; correspondingly, sending an ultrasonic signal by an audio processing component or an ultrasonic transmitter of the first device; or when the magnetic field intensity detected by the magnetic field sensor is lower than the third set threshold value, the ultrasonic signal is stopped being sent.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining whether two devices are close to each other and establishing the second communication connection by detecting the ultrasonic signal, the ultrasonic signal transceiver needs to be always turned on, which may increase power consumption of the electronic device. Specifically, the ultrasonic signal transmitters all include magnets, but after two devices, such as a first device and a second device, approach, the hall sensor can detect changes of an external magnetic field, for example, the magnetic field strength exceeds a set threshold, or after a magnetic field signal changes from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1, it is determined that other devices approach, so as to wake up an operating system of the device itself, the operating system turns on the ultrasonic signal transmitter again to transmit an ultrasonic signal, and receives the ultrasonic signal through MIC or earphone MIC, and after synchronization is completed based on the ultrasonic signal, a first communication connection is established, so that interaction of related information of a second communication connection can be achieved, and quick establishment of the second communication connection is achieved. In the embodiment of the disclosure, although the hall sensor also needs to detect the magnetic field intensity in real time, the power consumption of the hall sensor is very low, the overall power consumption is about 0.1mA, the overall power consumption of the device is hardly increased, and the electric quantity of the device can be saved compared with the case that the ultrasonic signal transmitter is always turned on. In addition, the cost of the Hall sensor is very low, and the overall cost of the device is not increased.

S12, sending connection information of a second wireless signal to the second device based on the first communication connection.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, after the first device establishes the first communication connection with the second device, the interaction between the identification information and the second wireless signal channel synchronization information may be performed based on the first communication connection, so as to establish the second communication connection between the first device and the second device.

As one implementation, the connection information includes at least one of:

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by sending the connection information to the second device, the fast connection between the first device and the second device may be implemented.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the first communication connection is established, the identification information of the second device may also be acquired based on the first communication connection; or, the identification information of the first device is sent to the second device based on the first communication connection. The first device or the second device determines whether the device which is connected in the Bluetooth or WIFI connection history list is the device which is connected in advance or not based on the identification information of the other side, and if yes, the second communication connection can be directly established based on the previous connection history.

S13, responding to the connection request initiated by the second device based on the connection information, and establishing a second communication connection with the second device.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, after the first device and the second device send the connection information, the first device performs channel synchronization with the second device on a channel corresponding to the channel information, receives a connection request initiated by the second device, and establishes the second communication connection.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, after the first communication connection is established by using the ultrasonic signal, the bluetooth or WIFI connection later is facilitated, taking the second communication connection as the bluetooth connection as an example, if the second communication connection is established between the first device and the second device, the two devices can directly establish the bluetooth connection after interaction based on the connection information, and do not need to manually open the bluetooth and pair. Bluetooth has an automatic connection function, for example, when two devices have connection Bluetooth for the last time, the two devices can be automatically connected only by turning on the devices at the same time, but if the devices which are connected most recently in the connection history list are other devices, Bluetooth cannot be connected automatically, but the information of the devices exists in the Bluetooth list.

Traditional bluetooth channel has 72, and bluetooth equipment needs different switching channels to carry out equipment search in the in-process of establishing connection, leads to the establishment process of bluetooth connection very slow, and this disclosed embodiment is synchronous the connection information of bluetooth to the second equipment through ultrasonic signal, and the second equipment only needs to search for specific channel just can establish bluetooth with first equipment and be connected, can promote the connection efficiency of bluetooth connection so greatly.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, besides the bluetooth connection, the second communication connection may also be a WIFI hotspot connection or other connection. For example, when the first device is set to default connection to bluetooth or default establishment of a WIFI hotspot, the first device may select to use the last connection mode as a reference for establishing a connection with the second device.

For example, after the first device and the second device approach each other, if a WIFI connection is established between the first device and the other devices last time and serves as a WIFI hotspot, the first device automatically sets itself as the WIFI hotspot after detecting an ultrasonic signal of the second device, sends information of an account number and a connection password of the WIFI hotspot to the second device through the first communication connection established through the ultrasonic signal, and the second device establishes a WIFI connection with the first device based on the account number and the connection password of the WIFI hotspot.

After the first device and the second device approach each other and the first device detects an ultrasonic signal of the second device number, the connection mode of the two devices in the history record at the last time is Bluetooth connection, and the first device is connected with the second device in a Bluetooth connection mode in a default mode; as an implementation manner, the connection manner of the first device may also be set to be bluetooth connection or WIFI connection through a voice control manner; the first device and the second device can complete Bluetooth connection or WIFI connection through negotiation between the first device and the second device.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as an implementation manner, the ultrasonic signals of the first device and the second device may also be encrypted, and the first device and the second device establish the first communication connection based on the encrypted first wireless signal. Of course, since the connection distance of the ultrasonic signal is short, the first communication connection between the first device and the second device may be established directly based on the first wireless signal without encrypting the first wireless signal.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a bluetooth connection establishment process with a hall sensor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 2, the bluetooth connection establishment process according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes:

the Hall sensor wakes up the system after detecting the change of the magnetic field, then starts the ultrasonic signal transceiver to transmit the ultrasonic signal, and carries out real-time ultrasonic signal transmission, after detecting the ultrasonic signal of the second equipment, a first communication connection of the ultrasonic signal is established, and the first equipment sends connection information to the second equipment, so that the second equipment establishes a second communication connection such as Bluetooth connection with the first equipment based on the connection information. The first device and the second device simultaneously open a Bluetooth function and transmit Bluetooth device information and channel information, and if the first device and the second device are connected for the first time, the first device is required to transmit Bluetooth pairing information to the second device so as to realize automatic pairing between the first device and the second device and establish Bluetooth connection. And if the first equipment and the second equipment are not connected for the first time, the fast Bluetooth connection between the first equipment and the second equipment is realized through the channel information in the connection information.
