Detailed ways

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features of the embodiments may be combined with each other in the case of no conflict.

The portable WLAN hotspot function implemented based on the existing WLAN technology must be manually turned on and off every time, which brings great inconvenience to the user. Moreover, the data traffic subscribed by each user is limited and paid. The hotspot is always on, and other devices can perform data services through the AP without restrictions, consuming the user's data traffic. Therefore, it is necessary to control the portable WLAN hotspot based on traffic. In addition, the power of wireless mobile terminals is limited. , and turning on the portable WLAN hotspot consumes a lot of power, so it is necessary to control the turning off of the portable WLAN hotspot based on the power alarm information. Therefore, corresponding conditions for triggering the opening and closing of the WLAN hotspot can be set based on the above-mentioned control basis, so as to realize the strategic control of the WLAN hotspot and effectively manage the function of the WLAN hotspot. It should be noted that the device here may be at least one of the following: a mobile terminal, a wireless router, and a household appliance with a wireless compatibility (Wireless Fidelity, Wi-Fi for short) function.

This embodiment provides a method for controlling and processing a WLAN hotspot function of a wireless local area network. FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for controlling and processing a WLAN hotspot function of a wireless local area network according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 , the process includes the following steps :

Step S102, start the wireless local area network WLAN hotspot function setting;

Step S104, receiving a trigger condition set for triggering the WLAN hotspot function, wherein the trigger condition is used to control the opening and closing of the WLAN hotspot function;

Step S106, according to the set trigger condition, control the on and off of the WLAN hotspot function.

Through the above steps, corresponding settings are performed on whether the device enables the WLAN hotspot function, that is, whether the WLAN hotspot function is enabled or disabled is controlled by setting trigger conditions, and the corresponding WLAN hotspot function is enabled or disabled when the conditions are met. Using the WLAN hotspot function in the prior art requires manual opening and closing operations, and the procedure is cumbersome. By using this method, the WLAN hotspot function can be automatically turned on or off by the device applying the WLAN hotspot function at an expected time or in an expected situation. The hotspot function solves the inconvenience of using the WLAN hotspot function in the prior art and the incomplete consideration of usage scenarios, improves the flexibility of the user to use the WLAN hotspot function, and effectively improves the user experience.

Considering that when using the automatic control function of the WLAN hotspot function, the WLAN hotspot function can be better combined with the practical situation of the user, and the WLAN to be controlled can be controlled before the WLAN hotspot function is controlled according to the set trigger condition. The opening and closing of the hotspot function and the triggering condition that triggers the opening and closing of the WLAN hotspot function are displayed. For example, if the trigger condition is that the time to turn on the WLAN hotspot function is up, then it is displayed that the WLAN hotspot function is activated because the timer expires, so that the user can take corresponding measures according to whether the WLAN hotspot function is really needed now (for example, , if the user does not need the WLAN hotspot function at this time, and needs to save power as much as possible at this time, therefore, you can directly set the automatic WLAN hotspot function to be turned off), so that the user will be sent a prompt to enable the function before it is actually enabled. information, effectively avoid unnecessary misoperation, and realize the real flexible control of the WLAN hotspot function.

The trigger conditions set above can be varied, and the set time is not limited. For example, at least one of the following trigger conditions can be set: when the timer expires, the data flow reaches a predetermined threshold, and the device power reaches a predetermined threshold. Preferably, in the case where the trigger condition is that the timer expires, the trigger condition is set by one of the following methods: setting the turn-on time and turn-off time of the WLAN hotspot function within a predetermined time period, for example, set at The turn-on time of the day is 8:00 in the morning, and the turn-off time is 6:00 in the evening; or, set one or more time periods for the WLAN hotspot function to work, for example, set the turn-on working time of the day to be from 9:00 am to 10:00 am One o'clock, the opening time is from one to two o'clock in the afternoon.

Preferably, when the trigger condition is that the data flow reaches a predetermined threshold, the trigger condition is set by one of the following methods: setting a data flow threshold that is allowed to be accessed through the WLAN hotspot function, and the set value is all data flow through the WLAN. The data traffic value accessed by the hotspot function, if it exceeds this value, it will be automatically closed; or, set the data traffic threshold for other wireless access points except the device applying the WLAN hotspot function to allow access through the WLAN hotspot function. , according to the setting of the threshold, the data traffic accessed by other wireless access points through the WLAN hotspot can be effectively controlled, and the threshold can be set with the data traffic subscribed by the user as a reference standard.

FIG. 5 is a structural block diagram of a wireless local area network WLAN hotspot function control and processing device according to the preferred embodiment 3 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5 , the device includes a second setting module 52 in addition to all the modules shown in FIG. 2 , When the trigger condition is that the data traffic reaches a predetermined threshold, the trigger condition is set in one of the following ways: setting a data traffic threshold that is allowed to be accessed through the WLAN hotspot function; The data traffic threshold for other wireless access points outside the device to allow access through the WLAN hotspot function.

The portable WLAN hotspot must be turned on when other wireless workstations want to connect to external networks through the portable WLAN hotspot. The user can only turn on this function manually, and if the user does not know the PIN code of the mobile terminal and the terminal is in a locked screen state, the hotspot function cannot be turned on until the owner of the mobile terminal unlocks it. Based on the above problems, the portable WLAN hotspot of this embodiment can be set on the user terminal or on a common wireless router, and the portable WLAN hotspot can be managed by adding the automatic timing function, the traffic statistics function and the low power control function, and the portable WLAN The opening and closing of the hotspot is controlled strategically, thereby improving the user's usability. The terminal device is taken as an example for description below.

The hotspot timing opening function is added to the WLAN hotspot, so that the portable WLAN hotspot can be automatically opened at a specified time without manual intervention.

(1) Portable hotspot auto-on function

In the portable hotspot setting interface, add the hotspot automatic timing opening function. FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of the portable WLAN hotspot function automatically opening according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6 .

The user can set whether to activate the hotspot timing opening function. If you choose to open it, you need to set the time. For example, set it at 9:00 am every day. After the setting is completed, the portable hotspot function will be automatically turned on at 9:00 am every day, which is convenient for other wireless devices. terminal equipment to connect. If you do not choose to turn on the timed turn-on function, you must manually turn on the hotspot.

The timing function can be implemented based on the system time, and the time setting and timing functions are based on the system time of the mobile terminal device. After adding the hotspot automatic opening function, the portable hotspot can be opened in two ways: manual opening and timed opening. Regarding which method is used for priority opening among the two opening methods, you can set the priority processing for the above two opening methods according to specific circumstances. After the hotspot is turned on, other wireless terminal devices can access the external network through the hotspot. If the user forgets to turn off the hotspot, the hotspot will remain on, even if no other device is using the hotspot.

Therefore, it is necessary to add the function of timed shutdown of the hotspot, so that the portable WLAN hotspot can be automatically shut down at a specified time without manual intervention.

(2) Portable hotspot automatic shutdown function

In the portable hotspot setting interface, add the hotspot automatic timing shutdown function. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of the portable WLAN hotspot function automatically shutting down according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 7 .

The user can set whether to activate the hotspot timing off function. If you choose to open it, you need to set the time. For example, set it to 13:00 pm every day. After setting, if the hotspot is detected to be on at 13:00 pm every day, the portable hotspot will be turned on. The function will automatically turn off at the current moment. If this function is not turned on, the hotspot will not be turned off automatically, and the user must turn it off manually.

The timing function can be implemented based on the system time, and the time setting and timing functions are based on the system time of the mobile terminal device.

When other wireless workstations access the external network through the portable hotspot, they consume the contracted data traffic of the terminal. Generally speaking, the contracted data traffic of the mobile terminal is limited, and a certain fee will be charged for the excess part. However, even if the data traffic subscribed by the mobile terminal is used up, other wireless workstations can continue to access data services through the hotspot.

Therefore, it is necessary to add a flow control mechanism. Users can limit the data flow accessed by the wireless workstation. When the set flow arrives, the hotspot will be automatically closed, and prompt information will be given to remind the user why the hotspot is closed.

(3) Turn off the hotspot function based on data traffic

In the portable hotspot setting interface, a hotspot traffic shutdown function is added. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of the portable WLAN hotspot function shutting down based on data traffic according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 8 .

The user can set whether to activate the hotspot traffic off function. If you choose to enable it, you need to set the traffic. For example, set the allowed data traffic to be 30M. After setting, when the data traffic accessed by other wireless workstations through the portable WLAN hotspot reaches 30M , the hotspot will be automatically closed, and a prompt message will pop up to remind the user that the access data traffic has reached the set traffic threshold, and the hotspot will be closed. If this function is not turned on, the hotspot will not perform traffic shutdown.

When other wireless workstations access data services through the soft AP, all data is first transmitted to the soft AP, and then the soft AP forwards the data to the wireless workstation, so the soft AP can easily perform data traffic statistics. , to collect data to meet the conditions that trigger the shutdown of hotspot traffic.

The portable WLAN hotspot function is a function that consumes a lot of power. When the mobile terminal turns on the hotspot function, the power consumption is very fast. Therefore, it is necessary to add a low-power shutdown function of the hotspot. When the terminal is in a low-power state, the hotspot function is automatically turned off and a prompt message is given. Save some power for the terminal so that the user can perform other operations.

(4) Turn off the hotspot function based on the low battery of the terminal

In the portable hotspot setting interface, add the hotspot low-power shutdown function. FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of the portable WLAN hotspot function based on the device low-power shutdown according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 9 .

The user can set whether to activate the hotspot low-power shutdown function. If you choose to enable it, when the terminal with the hotspot function on enters the low-power state, the hotspot function will be automatically turned off, and a prompt message will be given to remind the user that the hotspot function is turned off due to the low power of the terminal. Save power. If this function is not turned on, the hotspot function will not be automatically turned off when the terminal enters a low power state.

The low-power shutdown function can be implemented based on the device's low-power function, and the low-power shutdown function is based on the low-power event trigger of the mobile terminal device.

The above is the basic idea of managing portable WLAN hotspots by adding automatic timing function, traffic statistics function and low power control function. The above method for managing portable WLAN hotspots provides users with great flexibility in using WLAN hotspot functions. The above idea will be described below with reference to the preferred embodiment.
