A file sharing method and terminal equipment

Abstract

Embodiments of the present application provide a file sharing method and a terminal device. The method includes: after the receiving device receives the file sharing request from the sending device, if it is currently connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network and does not support dual-frequency dual-transmission DBDC, establish a point-to-point P2P with the sending device on the target frequency band Connection, the target frequency band includes 5GHz and frequency bands above 5GHz; the receiving end device receives the file sent by the sending end device through a P2P connection. In this way, the sender device and the receiver device establish a P2P connection on a higher wireless frequency band, which avoids other wireless signals in the frequency band below 5 GHz from interfering with the P2P connection between the sender device and the receiver device, and is conducive to improving the communication between the sender device and the receiver device. The file transfer speed between the receiving device improves the stability of the P2P connection between the sending device and the receiving device, shortens the time-consuming file transfer, and thus improves the user experience when sharing files between two terminal devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of terminal technologies, and in particular, to a file sharing method and a terminal device. Background technique [0002] Data can be transmitted between terminal devices based on wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) peer-to-peer (P2P) connections. This function is often used in scenarios where users share photos and files between different terminal devices. For example, when the user needs to share photos from the phone to the tablet, the phone and the tablet can establish a Wi-Fi P2P connection in response to the user's operation, so that the photos in the phone can be sent to the tablet through the Wi-Fi P2P connection computer. [0003] At present, Wi-Fi technology is mainly implemented in high frequency bands such as 2.4GHz and 5GHz. When any terminal device is connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot in the 2.4GHz band and does not support dual band dual concurrent (DBDC), the Wi-Fi P2P connection betwe...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Compared with high-frequency bands such as 5GHz, the transmission rate of the 2.4GHz frequency band is lower, and it is also susceptible to interference from Bluetooth or other Wi-Fi signals in the same frequency band

Therefore, when two terminal devices share files based on a Wi-Fi P2P connection in the 2.4GHz frequency band, the file transfer speed is usually very low, resulting in a long time-consuming file transfer

For example, on a Wi-Fi P2P connection in the 2.4GHz frequency band, it takes 3 minutes to transmit a 60MB video file, which greatly wastes user time and reduces user experience
