[0048] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0049] Figure 1 This is a schematic flow chart of a method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The wireless connection establishment method shown in this embodiment can be applied to a first Mesh device, where "first" does not specifically refer to a specific Mesh device, but is simply used to distinguish it from a subsequent second Mesh device. The first Mesh device and the second Mesh device are different Mesh devices.

[0050] The first Mesh device can access multiple networks as a node, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other networks. However, the first Mesh device needs to have some user configuration information to access the network. For example, to access the Wi-Fi network, the first Mesh device needs to have the Wi-Fi network password, SSID (Service Set Identifier), etc.

[0051] If the first Mesh device is not configured with user configuration information, the user needs to manually configure the user configuration information on the first Mesh device. However, when using the first Mesh device to expand the network architecture, a large number of first Mesh devices may need to be set up. This requires the user to configure the user configuration information for each first Mesh device, which causes a lot of repetitive work for the user, affects the user experience, and may also cause errors in manually configuring the user configuration information.

[0052] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure proposes a method for establishing a wireless connection, and exemplifies the implementation of the method through some embodiments.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the wireless connection establishment method may include the following steps:

[0054] In step S101, when the first Mesh device is not configured with user configuration information, a probe request is sent on at least one channel, wherein the probe request carries an identifier of the first Mesh device;

[0055] In step S102, when a beacon message is monitored on the at least one channel, if the beacon message carries the identifier of the first Mesh device, a communication connection is established with the second Mesh device that sent the beacon message;

[0056] In step S103, user configuration information is received from the second Mesh device through the communication connection;

[0057] In step S104, access a wireless network according to the user configuration information.

[0058] In one embodiment, the first Mesh device can determine whether it has been configured with user configuration information, wherein the user configuration information may be associated with the network to which the first Mesh device is applicable. For example, if the first Mesh device is applicable to accessing a Wi-Fi network, the user configuration information includes but is not limited to the Wi-Fi network password and SSID; for example, if the first Mesh device is applicable to accessing a Bluetooth network, the user configuration information includes but is not limited to the Bluetooth network password.

[0059] How the first Mesh device determines whether it has been configured with user configuration information will be described in subsequent embodiments.

[0060] In one embodiment, when the first Mesh device determines that it has not been configured with user configuration information, it can send a Probe Request on at least one channel, where the at least one channel is a channel pre-agreed by the protocol. The Probe Request can carry an identifier of the first Mesh device.

[0061] It should be noted that the action of the first Mesh device sending a probe request on at least one channel can be performed simultaneously on each channel or sequentially, and the specific setting can be set as needed. For example, for n (n>1) channels, the first Mesh device can first send a probe request on the first channel, then send a channel probe request on the second channel, and so on, and finally send a channel probe request on the nth channel. The first Mesh device can also send probe requests on n channels simultaneously.

[0062] Similarly, in subsequent embodiments, the action of monitoring the beacon message on the at least one channel may also be performed on each channel together or sequentially, which will not be described in detail.

[0063] In one embodiment, when a second Mesh device configured with user configuration information exists, the second Mesh device can monitor on the current operating channel. It should be noted that the second Mesh device can also monitor on multiple channels. However, since the second Mesh device has been configured with user configuration information, it is already connected to the network and communicating. Monitoring on multiple channels may affect the current communication. Therefore, as an optional implementation, monitoring is performed on the current operating channel to avoid affecting the current communication and ensure the quality of the current communication.

[0064] When the second Mesh device monitors the probe request, it can determine the identifier of the first Mesh device carried in the probe request, and try to match the identifier of the first Mesh device with the device identifiers in the device identifier library stored in the second Mesh device.

[0065] If there is a match, for example, the identifier of the first Mesh device exists in the device identifier library stored in the second Mesh device, the second Mesh device can determine that the first Mesh device is a legitimate device, and thus can establish a connection with the first Mesh device.

[0066] Furthermore, the second Mesh device may add the identifier of the first Mesh device to the Beacon message, and send the Beacon message on the current working channel to indicate that it agrees to establish a connection with the first Mesh device.

[0067] In one embodiment, the first Mesh device can also monitor channel messages on the at least one channel. When a beacon message is monitored, it can be determined whether it carries the identifier of the first Mesh device. If the message carries the identifier of the first Mesh device, it means that the second Mesh device sending the beacon message agrees to establish a connection with the first Mesh device, then a communication connection can be established with the second Mesh device.

[0068] Then, the second Mesh device can send the user configuration information of the second Mesh device to the first Mesh device through the communication connection. After receiving the user configuration information, the first Mesh device can access the wireless network connected to the second Mesh device according to the user configuration information.

[0069] As can be seen, according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the user no longer needs to manually configure user configuration information for the first Mesh device. Instead, the first Mesh device can automatically obtain the user configuration information from the second Mesh device and automatically connect to the wireless network based on the user configuration information. This greatly simplifies the manual intervention required for Mesh devices to connect to the wireless network, helps reduce user workload, and avoids errors that may occur when manually configuring user configuration information.

[0070] After the first Mesh device accesses the wireless network, it is already a Mesh device configured with user configuration information, so it can stop sending probe requests and perform the operations performed by the second Mesh device in subsequent embodiments, such as listening for probe requests on the working channel.

[0071] In addition, since the first Mesh device can send probe requests on multiple channels and listen to beacon messages on multiple channels, in some cases, the first Mesh device may listen to beacon messages on multiple channels.

[0072] When the first Mesh device monitors beacon messages on multiple channels respectively, the first Mesh device can select the second Mesh device corresponding to the channel with the best signal quality to establish a connection; further, the first Mesh device can also determine the type of wireless network accessed by different second Mesh devices sending different beacon messages. If the types of wireless networks accessed are the same, the second Mesh device corresponding to the channel with the best signal quality can still be selected to establish a connection. If the types of wireless networks accessed are different, connections can be established separately for the second Mesh devices accessing each type of wireless network.

[0073] In one embodiment, the method further includes: setting the identifier of the first Mesh device in the probe request according to a first agreed format; and / or determining the identifier of the first Mesh device in the beacon message according to a second agreed format.

[0074] When the first mesh device sets its own identifier in the probe request, it can operate according to the first agreed format to ensure that the identifier of the first mesh device is in the position specified by the first agreed format in the probe request. Therefore, after receiving the probe request, the second mesh device can determine the position in the probe request for setting the identifier of the first mesh device according to the first agreed format, and then quickly determine whether the identifier of the first mesh device is set in that position.

[0075] When the second mesh device sets the identifier of the first mesh device in the beacon message, it can operate according to the second agreed format to ensure that the identifier of the first mesh device is in the position specified by the second agreed format in the beacon message. Therefore, after receiving the beacon message, the first mesh device can determine the position in the probe request for setting the identifier of the first mesh device according to the second agreed format, and then quickly determine whether the identifier at that position is the identifier of the first mesh device.

[0076] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of another method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, when a beacon message is monitored on the at least one channel, if the beacon message carries the identifier of the first Mesh device, establishing a communication connection with the second Mesh device that sends the beacon message includes:

[0077] In step S201, when a beacon message is monitored on the at least one channel, if the beacon message carries the identifier of the first Mesh device and the identifier of the second Mesh device that sent the beacon message, determining whether the identifier of the second Mesh device matches a device identifier in a device identifier library;

[0078] In step S202, if there is a match, a communication connection is established with the second Mesh device that sent the beacon message.

[0079] In one embodiment, when the second Mesh device sets the identifier of the first Mesh device in the beacon message, it may also set the identifier of the first Mesh device itself in the beacon message so that the first Mesh device can determine whether the second Mesh device sending the beacon message is legitimate.

[0080] After receiving the beacon message, the first Mesh device can determine whether the beacon message contains the identifier of the second Mesh device that sent the beacon message in addition to the identifier of the first Mesh device. If the identifier of the second Mesh device exists, the first Mesh device can determine whether the identifier of the second Mesh device matches the device identifier in the device identifier library, for example, trying to match the identifier of the second Mesh device with the device identifier in the device identifier library stored in the first Mesh device.

[0081] If there is a match, for example, the identifier of the second Mesh device exists in the device identifier library stored in the first Mesh device, the first Mesh device can determine that the second Mesh device is a legitimate device, and thus can establish a communication connection with the second Mesh device.

[0082] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of another method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3 As shown, establishing a communication connection with the second Mesh device that sends the beacon message includes:

[0083] In step S301, a temporary wireless connection is established with the second Mesh device;

[0084] In step S302, the IP address of the second Mesh device is obtained through the wireless temporary connection;

[0085] In step S303, a communication connection is established with the second Mesh device based on the IP address.

[0086] In one embodiment, the process of establishing a communication connection between a first Mesh device and a second Mesh device may mainly include three steps.

[0087] First, the first Mesh device establishes a temporary wireless connection with the second Mesh device using the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) protocol. Then, the first Mesh device obtains the IP address of the second Mesh device using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The first Mesh device then establishes a communication connection with the second Mesh device based on the IP address. The established communication connection can be an encrypted communication connection, such as an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connection. Establishing an encrypted communication connection helps prevent the leakage of user configuration information when the second Mesh device sends it to the first Mesh device via the communication connection.

[0088] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of another method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown, accessing a wireless network according to the user configuration information includes:

[0089] In step S401, a backhaul network key is obtained from the user configuration information;

[0090] In step S402, the backhaul network access point of the second Mesh device is connected according to the backhaul network key to access the wireless network to which the second Mesh device is connected.

[0091] In one embodiment, after being configured with user configuration information, the second Mesh device can start a backhaul network access point (AP) interface and generate a backhaul network key for other Mesh devices to use to access the wireless network.

[0092] When the second Mesh device sends user configuration information to the first Mesh device, it may carry the backhaul network key in the user configuration information and send it to the first Mesh device. The first Mesh device may use the backhaul network key to connect to the backhaul network access point of the second Mesh device.

[0093] For example, a first mesh device can send an access request to a second mesh device, including the backhaul network key for authentication by the second mesh device. After receiving the access request from the first mesh device, the second mesh device can determine whether the first mesh device is authenticated based on the key included in the request. For example, the second mesh device can calculate the hash value of its stored key and check whether it matches the hash value of the key in the access request. If so, the first mesh device is authenticated and is allowed to access the backhaul network access point.

[0094] Since the user configuration information in the second Mesh device has taken effect and the second Mesh device has accessed the wireless network, after the first Mesh device accesses the backhaul network access point of the second Mesh device, the user configuration information in the first Mesh device can also take effect, thereby accessing the wireless network.

[0095] The following describes how the first Mesh device determines whether it is configured with user configuration information through several embodiments.

[0096] In one embodiment, the method further comprises:

[0097] Detecting whether user configuration information exists in the first Mesh device;

[0098] When the user configuration information does not exist in the first Mesh device, or when the user configuration information exists in the first Mesh device and the existing user configuration information does not meet a preset condition, it is determined that the first Mesh device is not configured with the user configuration information.

[0099] In one embodiment, the first Mesh device may detect whether the user configuration information has been stored in the first Mesh device. If the user configuration information is not stored, it may be directly determined that the user configuration information is not configured.

[0100] In the case where the user configuration information is stored, it can be directly determined that the user configuration information has been configured, or it can be further determined whether the user configuration information meets a preset condition.

[0101] In some cases, after being used in one network, a first Mesh device can be transferred to another network for use. While user configuration information can be configured in each network, the user configuration information for each network can be different. Therefore, even if user configuration information exists in the first Mesh device, it may only be the user configuration information used when it was a node in the previous network and not applicable to the current network. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the user configuration information meets the requirements by setting preset conditions. If the requirements are not met, that is, if the preset conditions are not met, it can still be determined that the first Mesh device has not been configured with user configuration information. This helps accurately determine whether the first Mesh device has been configured with user configuration information.

[0102] In one embodiment, the preset condition includes at least one of the following:

[0103] The time interval between the configuration time of the existing user configuration information and the current time is greater than the preset time interval;

[0104] The distance between the wireless network to which the existing user configuration information applies and the current location of the first Mesh device is greater than a preset distance.

[0105] In one embodiment, when the first Mesh device is configured with user configuration information, it can record the configuration time, and then when determining whether it has been configured with user configuration information, it can calculate the time interval between the current time and the configuration time. If the time interval is large, for example, greater than the preset duration, then it can be determined that the user configuration information has expired, and then it can be determined that the first Mesh device has not been configured with user configuration information.

[0106] In one embodiment, when the first Mesh device is configured with user configuration information, it can record the location of the wireless network to which the user configuration information applies. Then, when determining whether it has been configured with user configuration information, it can calculate the distance between the current location and the location of the wireless network. If the distance is large, for example, greater than a preset distance, then it can be determined that the user configuration information is no longer applicable to the network at the current location, and thus it can be determined that the first Mesh device has not been configured with user configuration information.

[0107] Figure 5 This is a schematic flow chart of a method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The wireless connection establishment method shown in this embodiment can be applied to a second Mesh device. The "second" does not specifically refer to a Mesh device, but is simply used to distinguish it from the first Mesh device configured with user configuration information. The first Mesh device and the second Mesh device are different Mesh devices.

[0108] like Figure 5 As shown, the wireless connection establishment method may include the following steps:

[0109] In step S501, if the second Mesh device has been configured with user configuration information, it listens for a probe request on the current working channel;

[0110] In step S502, if the identifier of the first Mesh device carried in the monitored probe request matches the device identifier in the device identifier library, a beacon message is sent on the current working channel, wherein the beacon message carries the identifier of the first Mesh device;

[0111] In step S503, a communication connection is established with the first Mesh device, and the user configuration information is sent to the second Mesh device through the communication connection;

[0112] In step S504, a wireless connection is established with the first Mesh device according to the user configuration information.

[0113] In one embodiment, the first Mesh device can determine whether it has been configured with user configuration information, wherein the user configuration information may be associated with the network to which the first Mesh device is applicable. For example, if the first Mesh device is applicable to accessing a Wi-Fi network, the user configuration information includes but is not limited to the Wi-Fi network password and SSID; for example, if the first Mesh device is applicable to accessing a Bluetooth network, the user configuration information includes but is not limited to the Bluetooth network password.

[0114] How the first Mesh device determines whether it has been configured with user configuration information will be described in subsequent embodiments.

[0115] In one embodiment, when the first Mesh device determines that it has not been configured with user configuration information, it can send a Probe Request on at least one channel, where the at least one channel is a channel pre-agreed by the protocol. The Probe Request can carry an identifier of the first Mesh device.

[0116] It should be noted that the action of the first Mesh device sending a probe request on at least one channel, and the subsequent action of listening for beacon messages on the at least one channel, can be performed sequentially on each channel. For example, for n (n>1) channels, the first Mesh device can first send a probe request on the first channel and continuously listen on the first channel for a period of time; then send a probe request on the second channel and continuously listen on the second channel for a period of time; and so on, finally send a channel probe request on the nth channel and continuously listen on the nth channel for a period of time.

[0117] In one embodiment, when a second Mesh device configured with user configuration information exists, the second Mesh device can monitor on the current operating channel. It should be noted that the second Mesh device can also monitor on multiple channels. However, since the second Mesh device has been configured with user configuration information, it is already connected to the network and communicating. Monitoring on multiple channels may affect the current communication. Therefore, as an optional implementation, monitoring is performed on the current operating channel to avoid affecting the current communication and ensure the quality of the current communication.

[0118] When the second Mesh device monitors the probe request, it can determine the identifier of the first Mesh device carried in the probe request, and try to match the identifier of the first Mesh device with the device identifiers in the device identifier library stored in the second Mesh device.

[0119] If there is a match, for example, the identifier of the first Mesh device exists in the device identifier library stored in the second Mesh device, the second Mesh device can determine that the first Mesh device is a legitimate device, and thus can establish a connection with the first Mesh device.

[0120] Furthermore, the second Mesh device may add the identifier of the first Mesh device to the Beacon message, and send the Beacon message on the current working channel to indicate that it agrees to establish a connection with the first Mesh device.

[0121] In one embodiment, the first Mesh device can also monitor channel messages on the at least one channel. When a beacon message is monitored, it can be determined whether it carries the identifier of the first Mesh device. If the message carries the identifier of the first Mesh device, it means that the second Mesh device sending the beacon message agrees to establish a connection with the first Mesh device, then a communication connection can be established with the second Mesh device.

[0122] Then, the second Mesh device can send the user configuration information of the second Mesh device to the first Mesh device through the communication connection. After receiving the user configuration information, the first Mesh device can access the wireless network connected to the second Mesh device according to the user configuration information.

[0123] As can be seen, according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the user no longer needs to manually configure user configuration information for the first Mesh device. Instead, the first Mesh device can automatically obtain the user configuration information from the second Mesh device and automatically connect to the wireless network based on the user configuration information. This greatly simplifies the manual intervention required for Mesh devices to connect to the wireless network, helps reduce user workload, and avoids errors that may occur when manually configuring user configuration information.

[0124] After the first Mesh device accesses the wireless network, it is already a Mesh device configured with user configuration information, so it can stop sending probe requests and perform the operations performed by the second Mesh device in subsequent embodiments, such as listening for probe requests on the working channel.

[0125] In addition, since the first Mesh device can send probe requests on multiple channels and listen to beacon messages on multiple channels, in some cases, the first Mesh device may listen to beacon messages on multiple channels.

[0126] In one embodiment, the method further includes: determining the identifier of the first Mesh device in the probe request according to a first agreed format; and / or setting the identifier of the first Mesh device in the beacon message according to a second agreed format.

[0127] When the first mesh device sets its own identifier in the probe request, it can operate according to the first agreed format to ensure that the identifier of the first mesh device is in the position specified by the first agreed format in the probe request. Therefore, after receiving the probe request, the second mesh device can determine the position in the probe request for setting the identifier of the first mesh device according to the first agreed format, and then quickly determine whether the identifier of the first mesh device is set in that position.

[0128] When the second mesh device sets the identifier of the first mesh device in the beacon message, it can operate according to the second agreed format to ensure that the identifier of the first mesh device is in the position specified by the second agreed format in the beacon message. Therefore, after receiving the beacon message, the first mesh device can determine the position in the probe request for setting the identifier of the first mesh device according to the second agreed format, and then quickly determine whether the identifier at that position is the identifier of the first mesh device.

[0129] In one embodiment, the beacon message also carries the identifier of the second Mesh device. When the second Mesh device sets the identifier of the first Mesh device in the beacon message, it may also set its own identifier in the beacon message, so that the first Mesh device can determine whether the second Mesh device sending the beacon message is legitimate.

[0130] After receiving the beacon message, the first Mesh device can determine whether the beacon message contains the identifier of the second Mesh device that sent the beacon message in addition to the identifier of the first Mesh device. If the identifier of the second Mesh device exists, the first Mesh device can determine whether the identifier of the second Mesh device matches the device identifier in the device identifier library, for example, trying to match the identifier of the second Mesh device with the device identifier in the device identifier library stored in the first Mesh device.

[0131] If there is a match, for example, the identifier of the second Mesh device exists in the device identifier library stored in the first Mesh device, the first Mesh device can determine that the second Mesh device is a legitimate device, and thus can establish a communication connection with the second Mesh device.

[0132] Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of another method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6 As shown, establishing a communication connection with the first Mesh device includes:

[0133] In step S601, a temporary wireless connection is established with the first Mesh device;

[0134] In step S602, the IP address of the second Mesh device is sent to the first Mesh device through the wireless temporary connection;

[0135] In step S603, a communication connection is established with the first Mesh device.

[0136] In one embodiment, the process of establishing a communication connection between the second Mesh device and the first Mesh device may mainly include three steps.

[0137] First, the second Mesh device uses the WPS protocol to establish a wireless temporary connection with the first Mesh device; then, the first Mesh device obtains the IP address of the second Mesh device based on the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, and the second Mesh device sends the IP address of the second Mesh device to the first Mesh device through the wireless temporary connection; then, the first Mesh device establishes a communication connection with the second Mesh device based on the IP address, such as an SSL connection.

[0138] Establishing a communication connection helps to prevent leakage of user configuration information when the second Mesh device sends the user configuration information to the first Mesh device through the communication connection.

[0139] Figure 7 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of another method for establishing a wireless connection according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 As shown, the user configuration information carries a backhaul network key, and establishing a wireless connection with the first Mesh device according to the user configuration information includes:

[0140] In step S701, a backhaul network access point of the second Mesh device is connected to the first Mesh device according to the backhaul network key to establish a wireless connection with the first Mesh device.

[0141] In one embodiment, after being configured with user configuration information, the second Mesh device can start a backhaul network access point (AP) interface and generate a backhaul network key for other Mesh devices to use to access the wireless network.

[0142] When the second Mesh device sends user configuration information to the first Mesh device, it may carry the backhaul network key in the user configuration information and send it to the first Mesh device. The first Mesh device may use the backhaul network key to connect to the backhaul network access point of the second Mesh device.

[0143] For example, a first mesh device can send an access request to a second mesh device, including the backhaul network key for authentication by the second mesh device. After receiving the access request from the first mesh device, the second mesh device can determine whether the first mesh device is authenticated based on the key included in the request. For example, the second mesh device can calculate the hash value of its stored key and check whether it matches the hash value of the key in the access request. If so, the first mesh device is authenticated and is allowed to access the backhaul network access point.

[0144] Since the user configuration information in the second Mesh device has taken effect and the second Mesh device has accessed the wireless network, after the first Mesh device accesses the backhaul network access point of the second Mesh device, the user configuration information in the first Mesh device can also take effect, thereby accessing the wireless network.

[0145] Figure 8 It is a module diagram of a Mesh device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 9 3 is a schematic diagram of the interaction between a first Mesh device and a second Mesh device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0146] like Figure 8 As shown in the figure, a Mesh device can be provided with a detection module, an identification module, a connection module, and a configuration synchronization module. If the Mesh device has not been configured with user configuration information, such as the first Mesh device, the detection module can be enabled and the identification module disabled. If the Mesh device has been configured with user configuration information, such as the second Mesh device, the detection module can be disabled and the identification module enabled.

[0147] exist Figure 8 Based on the modules shown, the first Mesh device and the second Mesh device can be Figure 9 The process interactions shown are as follows Figure 9 As shown:

[0148] The first Mesh device sends a probe request on at least one channel through the detection module, where the probe request carries an identifier of the first Mesh device;

[0149] The second Mesh device continuously receives probe requests on the current working channel through the identification module. After receiving the probe request, it can determine whether the identifier of the first Mesh device matches the identifier in the device identifier library of the second Mesh device. If they match, it can send a beacon message on the current working channel, carrying the identifier of the first Mesh device in the beacon message;

[0150] The first Mesh device can monitor the beacon message through the detection module. When it determines that the beacon message contains the first Mesh device's own identifier, it can determine that the second Mesh device allows the first Mesh device to access the wireless network. Then, it can establish a communication connection with the connection module of the second Mesh device through the connection module. The first Mesh device first uses the WPS protocol to establish a temporary wireless connection with the second Mesh device; then the first Mesh device obtains the IP address of the second Mesh device based on the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol; and then the first Mesh device establishes a communication connection with the second Mesh device based on the IP address.

[0151] The second mesh device sends the user configuration information to the configuration synchronization module of the first mesh device through the configuration synchronization module. The first mesh device saves and validates the user configuration information, disconnects the communication connection, establishes a backhaul connection, and thus accesses the wireless network. The first mesh device can also disable the detector module and enable the identification module.
