Among them, the channel quality can be calculated according to the channel of the communication link, and the channel quality includes the capacity of the channel itself, network speed, network delay, etc.

S203: The electronic device is connected to the at least two target communication links.

It can be seen that, in this embodiment of the application, when the electronic device does detect the multi-link activation request, it determines the status information of the multiple communication links to be connected, and selects the multiple communication links according to the status information At least two target communication links in the path, and finally, connect the at least two target communication links. It can be seen that after the electronic device starts the multi-link, it selects at least two target communication links to connect to transmit data packets according to the status information of each communication link. Compared with the traditional link selection method, the rationality of link selection can be improved. At the same time, compared with transmitting data through a communication link, it can increase the speed of data transmission, reduce the time consumed by data transmission, reduce network delay, and improve the data transmission efficiency of electronic equipment.

In a possible example, the determining the status information of the multiple communication links to be connected when the multi-link activation request is detected includes:

When a multi-link start request is detected, determine the data type of multiple data transmission tasks to be processed;

Wherein, the data type may include a first data type and a second data type, etc. The first data type is data transmission through a wired network (for example, dedicated hotspots of smart home equipment, Wi-Fi, etc., that is, no The data type needs to be transmitted through the cellular mobile communication network), and the second data type is the data type that needs to be transmitted through the cellular mobile communication network.

For example, the electronic device is a smart phone, and the multiple data transmission tasks include the smart phone uploading data to the smart home, such as the transmission task of TV projection, etc., corresponding to the first data type, and also including the smart phone to another smart phone The transmission task of transmitting chat information corresponds to the second data type.

Among them, different data types can select the target communication link according to the status information of different communication links, that is, the electronic device needs to obtain different status information of the communication link according to different data types, for example, when the data type is the first data When type, the determined type of status information can be the number of devices connected to each communication link, or the channel quality of each communication link. When the data type is the second data type, the determined status information type can be It is the data transmission frequency or data transmission rate of each communication link, which is not limited here.

Wherein, the plurality of first reference communication links of the first communication link type may be dedicated hotspots of smart home devices, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc., and the preset number threshold may be, for example, 1, 2, etc. Make a limit.

It can be seen that in this example, the electronic device determines the type of the corresponding communication link according to the data type, which is beneficial to improve the rationality of the communication link. Moreover, the target communication link is selected according to the number of devices connected to each communication link. It helps to improve the efficiency of data transmission.

Wherein, according to the data transmission rate of each of the communication links to be connected in the first preset time period, specific details of at least two target communication links among the plurality of communication links to be connected are selected. The implementation method may be to select at least two target communication links with the highest data transmission rate among the plurality of communication links to be connected, or to select the data transmission rate of the plurality of communication links to be connected to be higher than a preset At least two target communication links of the rate threshold are not limited here.

It can be seen that in this example, the electronic device determines the data transmission rate of each time period according to the historical connection record of each communication link to determine the target communication link connected in each time period, which is beneficial to improve the intelligence of link selection.

In a possible example, after the connecting the at least two target communication links, the method further includes:

Divide multiple data transmission tasks to be processed into multiple data packets;

The data is evenly distributed into multiple data groups according to the amount of data, which is not limited here.

The multiple data packets mean that the number of data packets and the amount of data in each group have been determined, where one wireless communication link may correspond to multiple data packets or one data packet, which is not limited herein.

Wherein, the specific implementation manner of establishing the correspondence between each of the data packets and the at least two target wireless communication links may be to determine the corresponding target wireless communication link according to the data type of each data packet in the data packet , Or it can be based on the data volume in the data packet to determine the corresponding target wireless communication link, etc., which is not uniquely limited here.
