The user scans the two-dimensional code of the communicator 200 with the terminal device to obtain the wireless information of the communicator 200 , and establishes a wireless connection with the communicator 200 .

The following describes how to establish a wireless connection between the communicator 200 and the terminal device by using an embodiment. It should be understood that the communicator 200 includes a wireless communication module 220 and a wired conversion module 230, and the wireless charging module 210 and the NFC module 240 are optional. The following describes how the communicator 200 and the terminal device establish a wireless connection through four embodiments.

FIG. 4 is a schematic flowchart of a method 300 for establishing a wireless connection between a terminal device and a communicator according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 300 can be applied to the scenario shown in FIG. 2 , and of course can also be applied to other scenarios. The embodiments of the present application are not limited herein.

It should be understood that, in the embodiments of the present application, the method is described by taking the communicator as an execution subject of the execution method as an example. As an example but not a limitation, the execution body of the method may also be a chip, a chip system, or a processor or the like applied to the communicator.

The two circles shown in 5 represent the NFC coil and the wireless charging coil, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 4 , the method 300 shown in FIG. 4 may include S301 to S302. Each step in the method 300 will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 4 .

S301, the communicator 200 is connected to the expansion device through a wired connection, the communicator 200 is connected to the first terminal device through a wireless connection, and the communicator 200 determines the type of the expansion device.

The communicator 200 can determine the expansion device type by detecting the signal of the wired interface pin. Different wired interfaces have different processes for identifying expansion devices. The following briefly introduces how the two interfaces identify expansion devices.

The communicator 200 may determine the extension device type by detecting the level of the interface, and may also determine the extension device type by detecting the communication information between the interface and the extension device.

For example, when the communicator 200 is connected to an expansion device through a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), which is a fully digital video and sound transmission interface that can transmit uncompressed audio and video signals, HDMI can be used for set-top boxes, personal Multimedia equipment such as computers, TVs, game consoles, display screens, digital audio and TV sets. The communicator 200 determines whether there is an HDMI device by detecting the signal on the hot plug detection (Hot Plug Detect, HPD) pin in the HDMI interface or determines the type of the connected device through the level, for example, the communicator is high according to the level of the HPD pin Level Determination The expansion device is connected in a wired manner, and the communicator 200 can determine that the connected device is a high-definition multimedia display device according to the level of the HPD pin.

For example, when the communicator 200 is connected to the expansion device through the Universal Serial Bus (USB) Type-C interface, the Type-C interface is an interface type that can be applied to both computers and terminal devices such as mobile phones . There are two Configuration Channel (CC) pins in the Type-C interface, CC1 and CC2, respectively. CC1 and CC2 are used to identify the insertion direction of the connector and different insertion devices. Through the upper and lower resistance values of CC, Or the level value of CC to determine the type of expansion device, such as power adapter or U disk, high-current charger or low-current charger, etc., can also be based on D+ (Digital Positive, DP) and D- in the Type-C interface. (Digital Minus, DM) two signals to determine whether the connected device is a high-current charger or a low-current charger.

It should be understood that the communicator 200 is also compatible with other interfaces, such as a USB Type-A interface, a digital video interface (Digital Visual Interface, DVI) and other interfaces, and for each interface, it can be determined whether there is an extension according to the pin voltage or communication information. device and extended device type.

The communicator 200 may establish a wireless connection with the first terminal device through at least one of the following implementation manners:

(1) The communicator 200 can communicate with the first terminal device through NFC or wireless charging protocol, and transmit the wireless information of the communicator 200 (such as the wireless network name and password provided by the communicator 200) to the first terminal device, and the first terminal The device establishes a wireless connection with the communicator 200 according to the received wireless information, for example, the first terminal device automatically establishes a wireless connection with the communicator 200 according to the received wireless information.

(2) The communicator 200 and the first terminal device can also establish the wireless information of the wireless connection according to the user input. For example, the user can search the wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) name of the communicator 200 through the first terminal device, according to User input establishes a wireless connection between the first terminal device and the communicator 200 .

(3) The wireless information of the communicator 200 can also be obtained by scanning the two-dimensional code of the communicator 200 by the first terminal device, so that the first terminal device can establish a wireless connection with the communicator 200 .

Wherein, the first terminal device may be a passive device, such as a U disk or other device without built-in power supply. The communicator 200 can wirelessly power passive devices through an external power source, or the communicator 200 package can wirelessly power passive devices through a built-in power source.

It should be understood that when the communicator 200 does not establish a wireless connection with the terminal device, in order to reduce power consumption, the communicator 200 may be in a standby state.

Specifically, the communicator 200 can periodically detect the terminal device, and if the communicator does not detect the terminal device, it can enter the standby state; if the communicator detects the first terminal device, the communicator can establish a wireless connection with the first terminal device.

S302, the communicator may send indication information to the first terminal device through wireless communication, where the indication information is used to indicate the type of the expansion device connected to the communicator 200, for example, the expansion device is a display device, an audio output device, a storage device, and the like.

When the extension device connected to the communicator 200 includes a power output function, the communicator 200 receives the wired power provided by the extension device, and wirelessly charges the first terminal device through the wireless charging module.

Exemplarily, the wireless charging module in the communicator 200 is wirelessly connected to the first terminal device through the Qi protocol, and the wireless charging connection is performed after the wireless communication connection is established, thereby realizing wireless charging of the first terminal device.

Exemplarily, when the communicator 200 wirelessly charges the first terminal device, the communicator is a power transmitter, and the first terminal device is a power receiver. The power transmitter needs to detect the existence of the power receiver and identify the power receiver. The specific process is as follows:

(1) An analog ping of the power transmitter detects the presence of the power receiver.

(2) The digital ping of the power transmitter is an extended version of the analog ping, and allows the power receiver time to reply with a signal strength packet. If the signal strength packet is valid, the power transmitter will keep the coil energized for identification and configuration.

(3) In the identification and configuration stage, the power receiver identifies the power transmitter and provides configuration and setting information to the power transmitter.

(4) After the identification and configuration are completed, the power transmitter starts to wirelessly charge the power receiver.

It should be understood that the communicator 200 may include a built-in power supply, and the communicator 200 uses the built-in power supply to wirelessly charge the first terminal device; or the communicator 200 may not include a built-in power supply, the communicator 200 receives the DC power provided by the expansion device, and charges the first terminal device through the wireless charging module. The first terminal device is wirelessly charged. Or wirelessly charge the first terminal device through an external power supply of the communicator 200 .

When the expansion device connected to the communicator 200 includes a communication function, the first terminal device determines the type of the expansion device according to the indication information sent by the communicator 200, for example, the expansion device is a display device, an audio output device, a storage device, and the like.
