Embodiment Construction

[0043] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Here, the exemplary embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are used to explain the present invention, but not to limit the present invention.

[0044] It is a mature technology to realize point-to-point data interaction between various communication devices in the same local area network. Each hardware communication device has its own MAC address, and the MAC address of the communication device itself is used as the unique ID of each device, which can be used to distinguish and identify different communication devices in the same local area network. The method and system for remote control set-top boxes through mobile phones designed by the present invention are based on the above principles. The mobile phone distinguishes and identifi...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a system of remotely controlling a set top box by a cellphone. The cellphone broadcasts, transmits and obtains media access control (MAC) address request information of each set top box in a same local area network; each set top box responds to the MAC address request information which is sent by the cellphone, and returns MAC address information; after the cellphone receives the MAC address information which is returned by each set top box, the cellphone generates a remotely control set top box list of the returned MAC address. Based on local area network interaction technology and MAC address recognition technology, by the adoption of the technical scheme of remote control operation of the set top box of the same local area network by the cellphone, the method and the system provide a remote control operating scheme which is convenient, simple and direct.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a method and system for remotely controlling a set-top box through a mobile phone. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, mobile phones are already a very common communication tool. It can basically be said that everyone has a mobile phone, and smart phones are the main trend in the future. A smart phone will be an intelligent terminal integrating multiple functions. It is also very practical and convenient to use a smart phone instead of an ordinary remote control to remotely control a set-top box. General remote controllers on the market emit infrared rays, and the set-top box receives infrared signals through related drivers for corresponding processing. The basic principle of using the mobile phone as the remote controller is to use WIFI to send data packets to the network through the mobile phone, and the smart operating system (such as the Android system) will respo...
