The wireless network connection method of the embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:

Step 101: After the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP enters a dormant state.

The wireless network connection method in the embodiment of the present invention is applicable to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal includes an AP end and a modem end, that is, a modem end. In the embodiment of the present invention, when the mobile terminal is in the bright screen state, both the AP end and the modem end are in the working state; after the mobile terminal is off the screen, the AP end enters the dormant state, and the modem end is in the working state to scan and connect to the target router.

Step 102: After the modem end establishes a wireless network connection with the target router, it sends connection information to the AP end.

An optional way to establish a wireless network connection between the modem side and the target router is as follows:

The modem end periodically scans routers, and after performing router scans, router information corresponding to one or more routers can be obtained. Wherein, the router information may be a router identifier.

The modem end establishes wireless network connections with each router one by one until the wireless network connection with a certain router is successfully established.

Of course, it is not limited to this. After scanning multiple routers, the modem side determines at least one router to be connected from the scanned routers according to the router information stored in the mobile terminal; Network connection until the wireless network connection with a router to be connected is successfully established.

Step 103: the AP side enters the wake-up state, and establishes a data transmission channel with the modem side. After the AP receives the connection information sent by the modem, it enters the wake-up state and establishes a data transmission channel with the modem. After the AP and the modem establish a data transmission channel, the AP can transmit the data to be transmitted to the modem through the data transmission channel. On the end, the modem end sends the data to be transmitted to the target router through the established wireless network connection.

In the wireless network connection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, after the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP end enters a dormant state, and the modem end is in a working state at this time, and the modem end performs router scanning and connection. Compared with the prior art, the AP end is required The power consumption of the mobile terminal can be reduced in terms of both the modem terminal and the modem terminal always working. In addition, in the wireless network connection solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the modem wakes up the AP to establish a data transmission channel only after successfully establishing a network connection with the target router, which can avoid frequent wake-up of the AP, and thus also reduce the power of the mobile terminal. consumption, prolonging the battery life of the mobile terminal.

Embodiment two

Referring to FIG. 2 , it shows a wireless network connection method according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention.

The wireless network connection method of the embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:

Step 201: when the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP enters a dormant state.

After the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP side sends the router scanning information to the modem side and then enters a dormant state, and the modem side is in a working state, and scans the target router according to the received router scanning information.

Step 202: The modem side scans according to the router scanning information sent by the AP side, and establishes a wireless network connection with the scanned target router.

The router scanning information includes at least one of the following: stored router information, scanning period, and preset scanning times. Parameters such as the number of preset scan times and the scan cycle are preset in the mobile terminal by the research and development personnel.

When the router scanning information includes stored router information, a preferred modem scans according to the router scanning information, and establishes a wireless network connection with the scanned target router as follows:

First, a router scan is performed on the modem side;

Secondly, the modem terminal judges whether the stored router information is included in the scanning result;

Finally, when the scanned result contains the stored router information, the target router corresponding to the scanned and stored router information establishes a wireless network connection.

What needs to be said is that if there are three router information scanned and stored this time, corresponding to routers A, B and C respectively, the modem side can establish a wireless network connection with router A first. If the establishment is successful, router A is directly determined as the target router. If the establishment of the wireless network connection fails this time, the modem end will establish a wireless network connection with router B, and if it still fails, establish a wireless network connection with router C; if the establishment of wireless network connections with all three routers fails, re-scan the router , until the wireless network connection with the target router is successfully established.

When the scan period is included in the router scan information, a preferred modem scans according to the router scan information, and establishes a wireless network connection with the scanned target router as follows:

First, the modem side scans the router according to the scan cycle;

The specific value of the scanning period can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and there is no specific limitation in this embodiment of the present invention, for example, the scanning period is set to 2 seconds, 3 seconds or 5 seconds, etc.

Secondly, when the target router is scanned, the modem end establishes a wireless network connection with the target router.

When connecting to the target router from the scanned routers, you can connect to the scanned routers one by one until a network connection is successfully established with a scanned router, and the currently connected router is the target router.

When the router scan information includes the preset number of scans, a preferred modem scans according to the router scan information, and establishes a wireless network connection with the scanned target router as follows:

Firstly, the modem side scans the router, and updates the number of router scans;

The number of scans can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, for example: set to 5 times, 8 times, 10 times and so on.

Secondly, when the target router is scanned, the modem end establishes a wireless network connection with the target router;

When the modem side performs router scanning, multiple routers may be scanned, so it is necessary to determine a target router from the scanned multiple routers. When connecting to the target router from the scanned routers, you can connect to the scanned routers one by one until a network connection is successfully established with a scanned router, and the currently connected router is the target router.

Again, when the target router is not scanned, the modem side judges whether the router scanning times exceed the preset scanning times; if so, the router scanning operation is stopped; otherwise, the router scanning is continued.

It should be noted that the above is only to scan and connect to the target router according to a single parameter in the stored router information, scan cycle and preset scan times. In the specific implementation process, any two of the three, Or combine all three to scan for connecting target routers.

Step 203: the modem end sends connection information to the AP end.

Wherein, the connection information carries target router information.

Step 204: The AP enters the wake-up state, and establishes a data transmission channel with the modem.

After the AP end and the modem end establish a data transmission channel, the AP end can transmit the data to be transmitted to the modem end through the data transmission channel, and the modem end sends the data to be transmitted to the target router through the established wireless network connection.

In the wireless network connection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, after the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP end enters a dormant state, and the modem end is in a working state at this time, and the modem end performs router scanning and connection. Compared with the prior art, the AP end is required The power consumption of the mobile terminal can be reduced in terms of both the modem terminal and the modem terminal always working. In addition, in the wireless network connection solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the modem wakes up the AP to establish a data transmission channel only after successfully establishing a network connection with the target router, which can avoid frequent wake-up of the AP, and thus also reduce the power of the mobile terminal. consumption, prolonging the battery life of the mobile terminal.

Embodiment three

Referring to FIG. 3 , it shows a wireless network connection method according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention.

The wireless network connection method of the embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:

Step 301: When the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP enters a dormant state.

After the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP side sends the router scanning information to the modem side and then enters a dormant state, and the modem side is in a working state, and scans the target router according to the received router scanning information.

After the AP end enters the sleep state, the modem end scans according to the router scanning information sent by the AP end, and establishes a wireless network connection with the scanned target router.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the router scan information includes: preset scan times, an initial scan period, a maximum scan period, and an incremental step of the scan period as an example for illustration. Among them, parameters such as the preset number of scans, the initial scan period, the maximum scan period, and the incremental step of the scan period are preset in the mobile terminal by the research and development personnel. The specific process for the modem to scan the target router to establish a wireless network connection is as described in step 302 to step 302 .

Step 302: The modem side scans the router according to the initial scan period.

Step 303: Determine whether the target router is scanned, and update the number of router scan times.

The modem executes step 303 every time it performs a router scan.

Step 304: When the target router is scanned, the modem end establishes a wireless network connection with the target router; then step 308 is executed.

When the modem side performs router scanning, multiple routers may be scanned, so it is necessary to determine a target router from the scanned multiple routers. When connecting to the target router from the scanned routers, you can connect to the scanned routers one by one until a network connection is successfully established with a scanned router, and the currently connected router is the target router.

Step 305: When the number of scans is equal to the preset number of scans and the target router is not scanned, adjust the scan cycle according to the incremental step of the scan cycle.

For example, if the initial scan period is 10 seconds, and the incremental step of the scan period is 5 seconds, then the adjusted scan period is 15 seconds.

Step 306: Determine whether the adjusted scanning period is greater than the maximum scanning period; if yes, stop the router scanning operation; if not, perform step 307.

Step 307: Perform router scanning according to the adjusted scanning period, and return to step 303.

The process shown in step 303 to step 307 is repeatedly executed until the target router is successfully scanned, or the scanning period is adjusted to exceed the maximum scanning period, and then the router scanning operation is stopped.

For example: the initial scan period is 10 seconds, the preset number of scans is 3, the incremental step of the scan period is 5 seconds, and the maximum scan period is 20 seconds. When performing a router scan, first perform a router scan with an initial scan period of 10 seconds. If the target router is not scanned after 3 scans, then adjust the scan period to 15 seconds and then perform a router scan. If there is still no scan after 3 scans If the target router is reached, adjust the scan cycle to 20 seconds and then scan the router. If the target router is still not scanned after 3 scans, the scan cycle will not be adjusted, but the router scan operation will be stopped.

It should be noted that, in other embodiments of the present invention, when the adjusted scan period is equal to the maximum scan period, the router scan can be performed according to the maximum scan period until the target router is successfully scanned, and the purpose of the present invention can also be achieved .

Step 308: the modem end sends connection information to the AP end.

Wherein, the connection information carries target router information.

Step 309: the AP enters the wake-up state, and establishes a data transmission channel with the modem.

After the AP end and the modem end establish a data transmission channel, the AP end can transmit the data to be transmitted to the modem end through the data transmission channel, and the modem end sends the data to be transmitted to the target router through the established wireless network connection.

In the wireless network connection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, after the screen of the mobile terminal is off, the AP end enters a dormant state, and the modem end is in a working state at this time, and the modem end performs router scanning and connection. Compared with the prior art, the AP end is required The power consumption of the mobile terminal can be reduced in terms of both the modem terminal and the modem terminal always working. In addition, in the wireless network connection method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the modem wakes up the AP to establish a data transmission channel only after successfully establishing a network connection with the target router, which can avoid frequent wake-up of the AP, and thus also reduce the power of the mobile terminal. consumption, prolonging the battery life of the mobile terminal. In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, when performing router scanning, the scanning period is flexibly adjusted and the scanning period is extended as the number of scanning failures increases, so as to avoid frequent scanning from increasing the workload of the AP.
