[0028] In order to better understand the technical solution of this specification, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this specification, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this specification, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this specification.

[0030] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit this specification. The singular forms of "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0031] In the prior art, mutual positioning between electronic device terminals usually relies on obtaining GNSS signals for judgment. However, in the special indoor environment, the GNSS signal is weakened, and the difficulty of electronic device terminals obtaining GNSS signals increases, resulting in the electronic device terminals being unable to obtain GNSS signals in a timely manner, and thus unable to determine their own and each other's location information.

[0032] In view of the above technical problems, the present application is described in detail as follows:

[0033] Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for locating a terminal in a local area network provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. The method may include the following steps:

[0034] Step S101: determine a first wireless signal source connected to a first terminal, and obtain first position information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source.

[0035] Optionally, the above-mentioned wireless signal source is a signal source that can convert wired network signals into wireless network signals and transmit the wireless network signals to the surroundings. It can be a wireless AP (Access Point) or a WiFi router, etc. The actual settings are set by technical personnel in this field according to needs, and this application does not limit it.

[0036] Optionally, the first position information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source can be determined based on obtaining the signal strength between the first terminal and the first wireless signal source. For example, the relative distance between the first terminal and the first wireless signal source is calculated by the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value of the first terminal for the first wireless signal source. The conventional method is used here for calculation and will not be repeated here.

[0037] Optionally, after obtaining the first location information, the following steps may also be included:

[0038] Step S1011, determining a third signal strength between the first wireless signal source and the first terminal.

[0039] Step S1012, determining at least one fourth wireless signal source in the local area network whose signal strength with the first terminal reaches a second preset signal strength, and obtaining a fourth signal strength between each fourth wireless signal source and the first terminal.

[0040] Step S1013: determine the first terminal location information based on the third signal strength and each fourth signal strength, where the first terminal location information includes location information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source and at least one fourth wireless signal source.

[0041] By acquiring multiple fourth wireless signal sources whose signal strength with the first terminal reaches a preset signal strength, and calculating the position information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source and at least one fourth wireless signal source, a more accurate relative position of the first terminal, i.e., the first terminal position information, can be further obtained.

[0042] Step S102: determine the local area network to which the first wireless signal source belongs.

[0043] Optionally, the above-mentioned local area network composition scheme adopts a plurality of wireless signal sources mounted under the local area gateway, and the plurality of wireless signal sources are distributed at various locations indoors, so that the wireless signal coverage range of the local area network can cover the wireless signal demand range indoors. When the electronic device terminal needs to access the local area network, it can access any wireless signal source in the local area network to use the network resources of the local area network. When the electronic device terminal moves out of the signal coverage range of the wireless signal source, it can connect to other wireless signal sources with stronger signal strength in the local area network, so that the electronic device terminal can use the network resources of the local area network at any time.

[0044] Exemplarily, the architecture of the above-mentioned local area network may include a local area network management device, a plurality of wireless signal sources and terminals to be connected, and the local area network management device is connected to the plurality of wireless signal sources, such as Figure 2 As shown, first, for a wireless signal source that accesses a local area network for the first time, the local area network management device will respond to a secure connection request sent by the wireless signal source, return connection confirmation information to the wireless signal source, and establish a connection with the wireless signal source; secondly, the wireless signal source will send a key acquisition request to the local area network management device to obtain a corresponding connection key, and subsequent data transmission between the wireless signal source and the local area network management device will be encrypted using the connection key to ensure data security; after the local area network management device returns the connection key to the wireless signal source, the wireless signal source can be registered with the local area network to which it belongs, and the corresponding service set identifier (Service Set Identifier, SSID) of the local area network will be provided to the wireless signal source.

[0045] Step S103, determining a second wireless signal source connected to the second terminal in the local area network, and obtaining second position information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source, and obtaining third position information of the second wireless signal source relative to the first wireless signal source.

[0046] Optionally, there are two ways to determine the second wireless signal source.

[0047] Method 1:

[0048] Step S103-A1, obtaining device connection information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network.

[0049] Optionally, after any wireless signal source in the local area network establishes a connection with the first terminal to be connected, it will report its own device connection information to the local area network management device, and the device connection information is, for example, the physical address (Media Access Control Address, MAC), IP address, etc. of the device mounted on the wireless signal source. Therefore, the local area network management device stores the current device connection information of all wireless signal sources. After the first terminal is connected to the local area network via the first wireless signal source, it can send a device connection information acquisition request to the local area network management device, and the local area network management device returns the device connection information of all current wireless signal sources to the first terminal.

[0050] Step S103-A2: determine the second wireless signal source to which the second terminal is connected according to the device connection information.

[0051] Optionally, after the first terminal receives the device connection information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network, the second wireless signal source to which the second terminal is connected can be directly searched according to the device information of the second terminal, such as the MAC address, IP address, etc.

[0052] Method 2:

[0053] Step S103-B: receiving information about the second wireless signal source sent by the second terminal.

[0054] Optionally, the first terminal may pre-set a function for establishing a communication connection between the first terminal and other terminals when they are in the same local area network. The second terminal then directly sends information about the second wireless signal source to which it is connected to the first terminal, and the first terminal can determine the second wireless signal source. For example, when the first terminal accesses a local area network, it can obtain the first SSID of the current local area network and send a request instruction for obtaining the SSID to the second terminal. When the second terminal receives the request instruction and has accessed a local area network at this time, it sends the second SSID belonging to the local area network to the first terminal. After the first terminal receives the second SSID, it determines whether the first SSID and the second SSID belong to the same local area network. When the first SSID and the second SSID belong to the same local area network, the second terminal can send information about the second wireless signal source to which it is connected to the first terminal.

[0055] Optionally, after the technicians distribute the wireless signal sources at different locations indoors, they can record the location of each wireless signal source and convert it into pre-stored location information and report it to the local area network management device. The pre-stored location information is, for example, the specific location coordinates of each wireless signal source indoors. After the first terminal accesses the local area network, the first terminal sends an instruction to request the location information of a wireless signal source to the local area network management device. The local area network management device can then send the location information of the wireless signal source to the first terminal, so that the first terminal can identify the location information of the wireless signal source.

[0056] Optionally, the second position information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source can be determined based on obtaining the signal strength between the second terminal and the second wireless signal source. For example, the relative distance between the second terminal and the second wireless signal source is calculated by the RSSI value of the second terminal for the second wireless signal source. The conventional method is used here for calculation and will not be repeated here.

[0057] Optionally, after obtaining the second location information, the following steps may also be included:

[0058] Step S1031, determining a first signal strength between a second wireless signal source and a second terminal.

[0059] Step S1032, determining at least one third wireless signal source in the local area network whose signal strength with the second terminal reaches the first preset signal strength, and obtaining the second signal strength between each third wireless signal source and the second terminal.

[0060] Step S1033: determine the second terminal location information based on the first signal strength and each second signal strength, where the second terminal location information includes the second location information and location information of the second terminal relative to each third wireless signal source.

[0061] By acquiring multiple third wireless signal sources whose signal strength with the second terminal reaches a preset signal strength, and calculating the position information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source and at least one third wireless signal source, a more accurate relative position of the second terminal, i.e., the second terminal position information, can be further obtained.

[0062] Optionally, the third position information of the first wireless signal source relative to the second wireless signal source can be directly calculated based on the position information of the first wireless signal source and the position information of the second wireless signal source received by the first terminal. For example, the position information of the first wireless signal source is (A1, A2, A3), and the position information of the second wireless signal source is (B1, B2, B3). The deflection angle between the two points and the straight-line distance between the two points can be obtained by calculation, thereby obtaining the position information of the first wireless signal source relative to the second wireless signal source.

[0063] Optionally, the third position information of the first wireless signal source relative to the second wireless signal source can also be calculated based on the pre-stored position information of the first wireless signal source and the position information of the second wireless signal source received by the first terminal through the coordinate system. For example, the position information of the first wireless signal source is (A1, A2, A3), and the position information of the first wireless signal source is (B1, B2, B3). In the coordinate system, the position of the first wireless signal source relative to the second wireless signal source can be reflected by these two coordinate positions, that is, the third position information can include the position information of the first wireless signal source and the position information of the first wireless signal source.

[0064] Exemplarily, the process of obtaining the third location information may include the following steps:

[0065] Step S1034, obtaining the location information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network, where the location information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network includes the third location information.

[0066] Preferably, in order to save the communication cost between the first terminal and the local area network management device, when obtaining the location information of the first wireless signal source and the location information of the second wireless signal source, the first terminal can also obtain the location information of other wireless signal sources. For example, the first terminal can send a request instruction to obtain the location information of all wireless signal sources to the local area network management device to obtain the location information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network, thereby determining the third location information including the location information of the first wireless signal source and the location information of the second wireless signal source through the location information of all wireless signal sources.

[0067] Step S104: determining target location information of the second terminal relative to the first terminal based on the first location information, the second location information and the third location information.

[0068] Exemplarily, by knowing the first position information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source, the third position information of the first wireless signal source relative to the second wireless signal source, and the second position information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source, the relative position relationship between the first terminal, the first wireless signal source, the second wireless signal source, and the second terminal is obtained, thereby obtaining the target position information of the second terminal relative to the first terminal.

[0069] Optionally, after the first terminal receives the location information of the first wireless signal source and the location information of the second wireless signal source, the location information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source and the second wireless signal source in the local area network can be obtained, thereby establishing a wireless signal source spatial coordinate system centered on the first terminal. After obtaining the information of the second wireless signal source connected to the second terminal, the location information of the first terminal relative to the second wireless signal source can be directly obtained, and then the target location information can be obtained based on the second location information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source.

[0070] Optionally, based on the above step S1034, the above step S104 may include the following steps:

[0071] Step S1041, establishing a coordinate system based on the first location information and location information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network.

[0072] Optionally, the origin position of the coordinate system can be determined by the first position information, and then the position information of all wireless signal sources can be embedded in the coordinate system to achieve direct calibration of the position information of the wireless signal sources, thereby intuitively determining the specific position of the second terminal.

[0073] Optionally, the above-mentioned coordinate system may be a spatial coordinate system with the first terminal as the origin.

[0074] Exemplarily, the above step S1041 may include the following steps:

[0075] Step S10411, determine the location information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network.

[0076] Step S10412: Determine the location information of the first terminal relative to all the wireless signal sources in the local area network according to the signal strength between the first terminal and all the wireless signal sources in the local area network.

[0077] Step S10413, determining the location information of the first terminal based on the location information of all wireless signal sources in the local area network.

[0078] Optionally, in the process of establishing a spatial coordinate system with the first terminal as the origin, for accurate positioning, the first terminal location information in step S1013 can be used as the origin. The above-mentioned first terminal location information can be determined by the location information of the first wireless signal source, at least one fourth wireless signal source and the corresponding signal strength. For example, the original coordinates are established by pre-stored location information, so that the location information of the first wireless signal source and at least one fourth wireless signal source is determined in the original coordinates, and a first range is made with the location information of the first wireless signal source as the center and the value of the third signal strength corresponding to the first wireless signal source as the range radius; a second range is made with the location information of at least one fourth wireless signal source as the center and the value of the fourth signal strength corresponding to the at least one fourth wireless signal source as the range radius. The overlapping part of the first range and the second range is the approximate range of the location information of the first terminal, and the center point of the overlapping part is taken as the first terminal location information.

[0079] Step S10414: establishing a spatial coordinate system with the first terminal location information as the origin.

[0080] Step S1042: determine the position of the second terminal in the coordinate system based on the second position information, where the position of the second terminal in the coordinate system includes target position information.

[0081] Optionally, the position of the second terminal location information in the coordinate system can be determined based on the location information of the second wireless signal source and the second location information, and then the location information of the second wireless signal source and the second terminal location information can be calibrated in the spatial coordinate system according to the first terminal location information.

[0082] Optionally, after obtaining the location information of the second terminal, an association can be established with the location information of the first terminal at the origin, that is, the direction of the second terminal and the distance between the second terminal and the first terminal are obtained. Subsequently, a third-party map can be used to obtain a navigation route from the location information of the first terminal to the location information of the second terminal.

[0083] In the above-mentioned terminal positioning method within the local area network, after the first terminal is connected to the first wireless signal source in the local area network, the local area network to which the first wireless signal source belongs can be obtained through the first wireless signal source, thereby determining the second wireless signal source to which the second terminal is connected in the local area network, and determining the target position information of the second terminal relative to the first terminal based on the first position information of the first terminal relative to the first wireless signal source, the second position information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source, and the third position information of the first wireless signal source relative to the second wireless signal source. Compared with the prior art, the present application scheme connects the first terminal to the local area network, so that self-calibration and acquisition of position information of other terminals connected to the same local area network can be realized in the indoor local area network. The operation is simple and more intelligent, and a rapid positioning function between multiple terminal devices is realized.

[0084] Figure 3 A coordinate schematic diagram of the spatial coordinate system provided for an embodiment of the present application, as shown in the figure, takes the first terminal as the origin in the spatial coordinate system, embeds the position information of each wireless signal source into the spatial coordinate system, and then determines the position information of the second terminal relative to the second wireless signal source based on the signal strength between the second terminal and the second wireless signal source, thereby obtaining the target position information of the second terminal relative to the first terminal.

[0085] Figure 4 A flow chart of a method for locating a terminal in a local area network provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. The method may include:

[0086] Step S301, obtain the positions of all wireless routers in the local area network by connecting to a router and calibrate them in the spatial coordinate system, for example Figure 5 WiFi1, WiFi2, WiFi3, …, WiFin in it.

[0087] Step S302: The first terminal obtains multiple WiFi router signals with signal strength reaching a threshold indoors, for example Figure 5 WiFi1, WiFi2, and WiFi4 in the WiFi routers are used as reference points, and a spatial coordinate system is established with the first terminal as the center.

[0088] Step S303, receiving information sent by the second terminal about the WiFi4 to which it is connected and multiple surrounding WiFi routers whose signal strength reaches the threshold and the corresponding RSSI values, for example Figure 5 The information of WiFi3 and WiFin in.

[0089] Step S304: the first terminal obtains the position of the second terminal in the spatial coordinate system according to the information of the WiFi router and the corresponding RSSI value, and displays it on the first terminal, so as to quickly obtain the position information of the second terminal.

[0090] In the above-mentioned terminal positioning method within the local area network, the electronic device terminal can self-calibrate and obtain information related to other devices based on the indoor local area network, and realize the rapid positioning function between multiple electronic device terminals. Therefore, when the indoor GNSS signal is weak, the location information of other terminals can be obtained with the current terminal as the center, especially when there is a large flow of people indoors to obtain the location information of another person, or to quickly locate the location information of a car in an underground garage.
