Among them, the following will mainly take the first network device as the network device as the slave access point 202 and the second network device as the network device as the master access point 201 to exemplarily describe the cooperation between the first network device and the second network device The process of executing the target business.

FIG. 3 is one of the schematic diagrams of a process of executing a target service by a network device according to an embodiment of the present application.

First, in step 401, the second network device and the terminal device 10 establish a communication connection.

For example, the terminal device 10 is located in the room 1. Due to the influence of the wall, the location of the terminal device 10 is closer to the location of the access point 201 in space. The signal quality of the signal is better than the wireless signal from slave access point 202 and slave access point 203. The terminal device 10 will establish a communication connection with the master access point 201 with the best signal quality, that is, establish a communication connection with the network device (second network device) as the master access point 201, and the network as the master access point 201 will establish a communication connection. The device connects the terminal device 10 to the wide area network.

Next, in step 403, the first network device and the terminal device 10 establish a communication connection.

For example, when the terminal device 10 is carried by the user from room 1 to room 2, the location of the terminal device 10 is spatially closer to the location of the access point 202 due to the influence of the wall. And the signal quality of the wireless signal from the slave access point 202 is better than the wireless signals from the master access point 201 and the slave access point 203 . The terminal device 10 will be switched from the master access point 201 to the slave access point 202 with the best signal quality; that is, the terminal device 10 will disconnect the communication connection with the network device serving as the master access point 201, and connect with the slave access point 201. The network device (first network device) of the access point 202 re-establishes the communication connection, and the network device serving as the slave access point 202 connects the terminal device 10 to the wide area network.

Next, in step 405, the second network device determines that the terminal device 10 establishes a communication connection with the first network device.

In a specific example, when the terminal device 10 is switched from the second network device to the first network device, the terminal device 10 needs to disconnect the communication connection with the second network device, and the second network device may determine that the terminal device 10 is possible The network device on which the switchover occurred. Next, after the terminal device 10 establishes a communication connection with the first network device, the first network device may send a notification message to the second network device, where the notification message is used to indicate that the terminal device 10 has established a communication connection with the first network device; specifically In other words, the notification message may include the device identifiers of each terminal device (including at least the terminal device 10 ) that has established a communication connection with the first network device. Next, after receiving the notification message from the first network device, the second network device may determine, based on the notification message, that the terminal device 10 has established a communication connection with the first network device.

It should be noted that the second network device may also receive notification messages from other network devices other than the first network device in the WLAN, such as receiving notification messages from the network device serving as the slave access point 203 . For any notification message, the second network device can detect whether the notification message contains the device identifier of the terminal device 10; if so, it means that the terminal device 10 has been switched from the second network device to the first device that sent the notification message. Network equipment.

In a specific example, the first network device and the second network device are network devices serving as slave access points in the WLAN, and the third network device is the network device serving as the master access point in the WLAN. When the terminal device 10 switches from the second network device to the first network device, the terminal device 10 needs to disconnect the communication connection with the second network device, and the second network device can report the first access information (also referred to as the first access information) to the third network device. For notification message), the first access information includes the device identification of the terminal device 10 and the first access indication indicating that the terminal device 10 has disconnected the communication connection with the second network device. Next, after the terminal device 10 establishes a communication connection with the first network device, the first network device may report a second access message (also referred to as a notification message) to the third network device, where the second access message includes the terminal device 10 and a second access indication indicating that the terminal device 10 has established a communication connection with the first network device. The third network device can learn that the terminal device 10 is switched from the second network device to the first network device by matching the first access information and the second access information, and then send a notification message to the second network device, where the notification message can be The device identification of the terminal device 10 and the device identification of the first network device are included, so that the notification message can be used to indicate that the terminal device 10 has established a communication connection with the first network device. Next, when the second network device receives the notification message from the third network device, it can be determined that the terminal device 10 has established a communication connection with the first network device.

Next, in step 407, the second network device sends indication information to the first network device.

In some embodiments, different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 , the indication information may also be provided by a third network device. The first network device, the second network device and the third network device belong to the same WLAN, and the third network device belongs to the same WLAN. A network device in a WLAN that acts as a primary access point.

Next, the first network device executes step 409 in response to the indication information from the second network device or the third network device, and executes the target service under the support of the audio and video module included in the first network device.

Depending on the target service that the first network device needs to perform, the process of cooperation between the first network device and the second device may be different. The following describes in detail with reference to FIG. 4 to FIG. specific examples.

FIG. 4 is the second schematic diagram of a process of executing a target service by a network device according to an embodiment of the present application.

Referring to FIG. 4 , in some embodiments, different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 , after step 401 , the second network device may also perform: step 4021 , collect users through the audio and video module of the second network device The voice command sent out; Step 4023, control the connected home equipment according to the voice command. The home device controlled by the second network device may specifically be a home device associated with the second network device, or a home device that has established a communication connection with any network device in the WLAN to which the second network device belongs.

Step 407 specifically includes step 4071, in which the second network device sends instruction information including instruction information to the first network device. Wherein, the instruction information is used to instruct the first network device as a control device of the household device.

As described above, when the second network device is not the network device serving as the primary access point in the WLAN to which it belongs, the second network device may not need to perform step 4071. Correspondingly, the first network device and the third network device serving as the primary access point in the WLAN to which the second network device belongs can learn that the terminal device 10 is switched from the second network device to the first network device, and learn that the terminal device 10 is switched from the second network device to the first network device. After switching from the second network device to the first network device, the device 10 sends the instruction information including the instruction information to the first network device.

The first network device executes step 409 in response to the instruction information included in the instruction information. The step 409 may specifically include: step 4091, collecting the voice command sent by the user through the audio and video module of the first network device; step 4093, controlling the connected home device according to the voice command. Wherein, the home device controlled by the first network device may specifically be a home device associated with the first network device, or a home device that has established a communication connection with any network device in the WLAN to which the first network device belongs.

In a more specific example, the smart home control service can be deployed in both the first network device and the second network device, and the indication information may also include status information, where the status information is used to indicate the smart home control service deployed in the second network device. Whether the smart home control service is awake. Exemplarily, when the smart home control service deployed in the second network device is in an awake state, that is, the processor of the second network device has started a process (Process) corresponding to the smart home control service, the indication information includes instructions for indicating the first 2. Status information that the smart home control service deployed in the network device is in the awake state. Correspondingly, the first network device can wake up the smart home control service deployed in the first network device according to the indication of the state information. In this way, for the user, it is not necessary to issue a voice command for waking up the smart home control service deployed in the first network device, but directly issue a voice command for regulating the home device, which is deployed in the first network device and The smart home control service that has been awakened responds to the voice command used to control the home device, and controls the home device according to the voice command used to control the home device.

In a more specific example, the first network device may maintain the association relationship between several specific home devices and the first network device in advance through the smart home control service deployed by the first network device. The user can issue a shorter voice command for controlling the home equipment, so that the first network device can control the home equipment associated with the first network device according to the association relationship, so as to realize the control of several specific smart homes and improve the user experience.

For example, the network device that is the slave access point 202 is the first network device. Room 2 is deployed with a number of household devices such as smart lamps and smart air conditioners. When the user carries the terminal device 10 from room 1 to room 2, when he sends a specific voice command (for example, turn on the lights or turn on the air conditioner), it is expected that the device will be turned on. The smart light/smart air conditioner is usually the smart light/smart air conditioner located in room 2. In this case, through the smart home control service deployed in the first network device, the association relationship between the smart lamps and smart air conditioners deployed in the room 2 and the first network device is maintained in advance. When the smart home control service deployed in the first network device is woken up and receives a specific and very short voice command (for example, turn on the lights or turn on the air conditioner), the smart home control service deployed in the first network device can The voice command and the association relationship control the home equipment associated with the first network device, such as turning on the smart lamps/smart air conditioners deployed in room 2, but not turning on the smart lamps/smart air conditioners deployed in room 1 or room 3 .

In a more specific example, the first network device can control the home device that has established a communication connection with any network device in the WLAN to which the first network device belongs, through the smart home control service deployed by the first network device.

For example, the lamp/smart air conditioner in room 1 establishes a communication connection through the network device as the access point 201. After the user enters room 2 with the terminal device 10 from room 1, he wishes to turn off the household equipment deployed in room 1. For example, it is desired to turn off smart lamps or smart air conditioners deployed in room 1. When the user issues a specific voice command in room 2 (for example, turn off the lamps/smart air conditioner in room 1), as the smart home control service deployed in the network device (first network device) of the access point 202, the The semantics of the voice command is parsed, and the smart lamps/smart air conditioners deployed in room 1 are turned off according to the results of the semantic analysis.

It should be noted that, when the second smart home control service is in an awake state, the second network device can also release the smart home control service deployed in the second network device after determining that the terminal device 10 establishes a communication connection with the first network device. The smart home control service deployed in the second network device is put into a dormant state. In other words, after the terminal device 10 switches from the second network device to the first network device, if both the first network device and the second network device receive a specific voice command, the first network device will act as a home device. The control device of the second network device responds to the voice command, and the second network device will not respond to the voice command incorrectly because the deployed smart home control service is in a dormant state.
