[0001] This application relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and in particular to a wireless communication method, apparatus, electronic device and storage medium. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the Wi-Fi market, especially in the Internet of Things (IoT) field, different understandings and implementations of the 802.11 protocol details lead to various compatibility issues between different Wi-Fi products. To address this issue, many solution providers have launched Wi-Fi kits for specific application scenarios, using two Wi-Fi devices as a wireless access point (AP) and a wireless station (STA).
[0003] However, since many Wi-Fi kits in the IoT field are battery-powered products, high power consumption is required. Existing low-power designs for Wi-Fi kits primarily utilize the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) concept from the 802.11 protocol. This involves periodically waking up to receive beacon frames and checking for cached AP (Access Point) information within the beacon frames. This approach offers limited power reduction; therefore, further reducing the power consumption of Wi-Fi kits has become a pressing issue. Summary of the Invention

[0018] According to a wireless communication method provided in this application, the target modulation scheme is associated with at least one of the following factors: the demodulation capability of the wireless station device under various modulation schemes, the sensitivity of the wireless station device under various modulation schemes, the anti-interference capability of the wireless station device, and the beacon transmission rate.

When the first beacon frame is a target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the original modulation scheme, the transmission time of the beacon frame can be reduced because the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame (i.e., the beacon frame length is reduced). When the first beacon frame is the original beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme, the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme (i.e., the beacon frame transmission rate is increased), which can reduce the transmission time of the beacon frame. Finally, when the first beacon frame is a target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme, the transmission rate of the beacon frame can be increased because the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame (i.e., the beacon frame length is reduced) and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme (i.e., the beacon frame transmission rate is increased), which can reduce the transmission time of the beacon frame. By reducing the transmission time of beacon frames, the wake-up time of wireless site devices during sleep cycles is reduced, thereby reducing the power consumption of Wi-Fi kit products.

Obviously, the drawings described below are some embodiments of this application. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0031] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the wireless communication device provided in this application;
[0032] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device provided in this application; Detailed Implementation
[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0034] The inventor noticed the following during the invention process:
[0035] The main factors affecting the power consumption of Wi-Fi kits are as follows:
[0036] 1) Dtim multiple;
[0037] 2) Wakeup time;
[0038] 3) The accuracy of the timing synchronization function (Tsf) between STA and AP;
[0039] 4) The data interaction between AP and STA during each wake-up;
[0040] 5) Substrate current and receive (rx, Receive) current during device sleep.
[0041] For cases with fixed Dtim multiples, fixed substrate currents, and fixed rx currents, the main factor affecting the power consumption of Wi-Fi kit products is the size of the Wakeup time.
[0042] Wakeup time includes:
[0043] 1) Hardware recovery time (in μs);
[0044] 2) Software recovery time (in μs);
[0045] 3) Transmission duration of beacon frames (in milliseconds);
[0046] 4) Sleep trigger time (in μs).
[0047] It can be seen that the main determinant of the overall wakeup time is the transmission duration of the beacon frame. Therefore, reducing the transmission duration of the beacon frame can reduce the overall wakeup time, thereby reducing the power consumption of the Wi-Fi kit.
[0048] Based on this, this application provides a wireless communication method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium that can reduce the transmission time of beacon frames. By reducing the transmission time of beacon frames, the wake-up time of wireless site devices during sleep cycles can be reduced, thereby achieving the goal of reducing the power consumption of Wi-Fi kit products.
[0049] First, the following combination Figures 1 to 2 The wireless communication method described in this application is explained.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the wireless communication method provided in this application. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps:
[0051] Step 101: The wireless access point device determines the first beacon frame and the first modulation scheme; wherein, the first beacon frame is the target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the original modulation scheme; or, the first beacon frame is the original beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme; or, the first beacon frame is the target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme; the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame, and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme;
[0052] Step 102: The wireless access point device transmits the first beacon frame to the wireless site device according to the first modulation scheme.
[0053] In step 101, the Wi-Fi kit includes a first Wi-Fi device and a second Wi-Fi device, wherein the first Wi-Fi device serves as a wireless access point device and the second Wi-Fi device serves as a wireless site device.
[0054] In practice, step 101 may include the following three scenarios:
[0055] 1) The wireless access point device determines that the first beacon frame is the target beacon frame, the first modulation method is the original modulation method, and the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame;
[0056] 2) The wireless access point device determines that the first beacon frame is the original beacon frame, the first modulation method is the target modulation method, and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation method is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation method.
[0057] 3) The wireless access point device determines that the first beacon frame is the target beacon frame, the first modulation method is the target modulation method, the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame, and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation method is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation method.
[0058] In the case of scenario 1), where the first beacon frame is the target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the original modulation scheme, the transmission time of the beacon frame can be reduced by replacing the original beacon frame with the target beacon frame, and the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame, i.e., the length of the beacon frame is reduced, while the modulation scheme remains unchanged.
[0059] Regarding the second scenario, when the first beacon frame is the original beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme, since the original modulation scheme is replaced with the target modulation scheme and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme, that is, the transmission rate of the beacon frame increases while the beacon frame remains unchanged, the transmission time of the beacon frame can be reduced.
[0060] Regarding the third scenario, where the first beacon frame is the target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme, since the original beacon frame is replaced with the target beacon frame and the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame (i.e., the length of the beacon frame is reduced), and the original modulation scheme is replaced with the target modulation scheme and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme (i.e., the transmission rate of the beacon frame is increased), the transmission duration of the beacon frame can be reduced.
[0061] In this embodiment, the wireless access point device first determines a first beacon frame and a first modulation scheme; then, the wireless access point device transmits the first beacon frame to the wireless station device according to the first modulation scheme. When the first beacon frame is a target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the original modulation scheme, the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame, meaning the beacon frame length is reduced, which can decrease the beacon frame transmission time. When the first beacon frame is the original beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme, the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme, meaning the beacon frame transmission rate is increased, which can reduce the beacon frame transmission time. Finally, when the first beacon frame is a target beacon frame and the first modulation scheme is the target modulation scheme, the length of the target beacon frame is shorter than the length of the original beacon frame, meaning the beacon frame length is reduced, and the transmission rate corresponding to the target modulation scheme is greater than the transmission rate corresponding to the original modulation scheme, meaning the beacon frame transmission rate is increased, which can reduce the beacon frame transmission time. By reducing the transmission time of beacon frames, the wake-up time of wireless site devices during sleep cycles is reduced, thereby reducing the power consumption of Wi-Fi kit products.
[0062] Optionally, the target beacon frame is determined through the following steps:
[0063] Step 201: Select at least one unnecessary field from the multiple unnecessary field data of the original beacon frame;
[0064] Step 202: Remove at least one unnecessary field data from the original beacon frame to obtain the target beacon frame.
[0065] In step 201, the frame format of the original beacon frame is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the original beacon frame includes a frame header, frame body, and frame trailer. The frame header is the Media Access Control Address (MAC) header, and the frame trailer is the Frame Check Sequence (FCS). The frame header and frame trailer are essential parts of the entire beacon frame. The parts of the beacon frame that can be removed mainly start from the frame body.
[0066] The member names, member identifiers, and lengths of each field in the original beacon frame are shown in Table 1:
[0067] Table 1. Member names, member identifiers, and lengths of each field in the original beacon frame.
[0068]
[0069]
[0070] The non-essential fields in the frame body of the original beacon frame include: Radio Access Point Channel Report (APChannel Report), High Throughput Capability (HT CAP), High Throughput Information (HT Info), Ultra-High Throughput Capabilities (VHT Capabilities element), Ultra-High Throughput Operation Capabilities (VHT Operation element), Extended Capabilities, Vendor Specific1, Vendor Specific2, and Vendor Specific3.
[0071] The Chinese definitions of the member names in the above original beacon frame are as follows:
[0072] 1) Mac header, referring to the MAC header, i.e., the frame header;
[0073] 2) Beacon timestamp, representing the timestamp of the beacon frame;
[0074] 3) Beacon interval, representing the interval between beacon frames;
[0075] 4) Capability info, representing performance information;
[0076] 5) SSID, or Service Set Identifier, represents the identifier of a service set;
[0077] 6) Retes, indicating the supported rate;
[0078] 7) DSPS, or Direct Sequence Parameter Set, represents the set of direct sequence parameters;
[0079] 8) TIM, or Traffic Indication Map, represents the indication information for data to be transmitted;
[0080] 9) Country, representing the country code;
[0081] 10) AP Channel Report, indicating the wireless access point channel report;
[0082] 11) ERP, or extended rate Physical Layer, represents the rate of expansion of the physical layer;
[0083] 12) Extended supported rates, indicating extended supported rates;
[0084] 13) WPA, or Wi-Fi Protected Access, indicates Wi-Fi access protection;
[0085] 14) RSN, or Robust Security Network, refers to a secure network.
[0086] 15) HT CAP, or High-throughput Capability, indicates high throughput performance;
[0087] 16) HT Info, or High-throughput Information, refers to information with high throughput.
[0088] 17) VHT capabilities element, representing ultra-high throughput performance elements;
[0089] 18) VHT operation element, representing the ultra-high throughput operation element;
[0090] 19) Extended capabilities, indicating extended capabilities;
[0091] 20) WMM, which stands for Wi-Fi Multimedia;
[0092] 21) Vendor specific, meaning customized by the manufacturer;
[0093] 22) FCS, or Frame Check Sequence, also known as the frame check sequence or frame tail.
[0094] In this step, at least one unnecessary field is selected from the multiple unnecessary field data in the frame body of the original beacon frame. For example, any one or more of the above 9 unnecessary field data can be selected, or all of them can be selected.
[0095] Optionally, step 201 includes: selecting at least one unnecessary field data with a length greater than a preset length from multiple unnecessary field data of the original beacon frame.
[0096] For example, assuming the preset length is 25, the non-essential field data with a length greater than the preset length includes: HTCAP, Vendor specific1, Vendor specific2, and Vendor specific3. You can select one or more non-essential field data from these non-essential field data, or you can select all of them.
[0097] In this implementation, unnecessary field data with a length greater than a preset length can be preferentially selected as the data to be cut off.
[0098] Optionally, step 202 includes: randomly selecting at least one unnecessary field data from multiple unnecessary field data of the original beacon frame.
[0099] In this implementation, unnecessary field data from the original beacon frame can be randomly selected as the data to be cut off.
[0100] In step 202, after selecting at least one unnecessary field data from the original beacon frame, at least one unnecessary field data is removed from the original beacon frame to obtain the target beacon frame.
[0101] Assuming all unnecessary fields longer than 25 are removed, the original beacon frame length is shortened from 402 bytes to 200 bytes to obtain the target beacon frame.
[0102] Assuming all unnecessary fields are removed, the original beacon frame length is shortened from 402 bytes to 140 bytes. The member names, member identifiers, and lengths of each field in the shortened beacon frame (i.e., the target beacon frame) are shown in Table 2.
[0103] Table 2: Member Name, Member Identifier, and Length of Each Field in the Target Beacon Frame
[0104]
[0105]
[0106] Assuming the first modulation method is the original modulation method, the corresponding transmission rate is 1Mbps. Before the length is shortened, the original beacon frame (length is 402 bytes) has a transmission time of 3.216ms in the air interface. After the length is shortened, the target beacon frame (length is 140 bytes) has a transmission time of 1.12ms in the air interface. Obviously, reducing the length of the beacon frame can reduce the transmission time of the beacon frame.
[0107] In this embodiment, removing at least one unnecessary field data from the original beacon frame to obtain the target beacon frame can reduce the length of the beacon frame, thereby reducing the transmission time of the beacon frame.
[0108] Optionally, the target modulation scheme is associated with at least one of the following factors: the demodulation capability of the wireless site equipment under various modulation schemes, the sensitivity of the wireless site equipment under various modulation schemes, the anti-interference capability of the wireless site equipment, and the beacon transmission rate.
[0109] Specifically, the target modulation scheme is selected from modulation schemes such as 802.11a / b / g / n / ac / ax based on at least one of the factors mentioned above. The modulation schemes for 802.11b / a / g / n are briefly listed below in Tables 3 and 4.
[0110] Table 3 Modulation methods of 802.11b / a / g
[0111]
[0112]
[0113] Table 4 Modulation methods of 802.11n
[0114]
[0115] The Chinese definitions of the English abbreviations in Tables 3 and 4 above are as follows:
[0116] 1) DSSS, or Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum, represents direct sequence spread spectrum;
[0117] 2) CCK, or Complementary Code Keying, refers to two's complement keying.
[0118] 3) BPSK, or Binary Phase Shift Keying, refers to two-phase phase shift keying;
[0119] 4) QPSK, or Quadrature Phase Shift Keying, refers to quadrature phase shift keying;
[0120] 5) QAM, or Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, represents quadrature amplitude modulation;
[0121] 6) HT, which stands for High-throughput, indicates high throughput;
[0122] 7) GI, or Guard Interval, represents the protection interval.
[0123] Currently, most wireless access point devices use 802.11b MCS0 (the original modulation method) to transmit beacon frames in order to be compatible with older protocol standards. As can be seen from Table 3, the transmission rate of 802.11b MCS0 is 1 Mbps.
[0124] The target modulation method can be a modulation method with demodulation capability, sensitivity, and anti-interference capability that is similar to the original modulation method, and with the highest beacon transmission rate. This embodiment is not limited to this.
[0125] Optionally, considering the following factors: the demodulation capability of the wireless site equipment under various modulation methods, the sensitivity of the wireless site equipment under various modulation methods, the anti-interference capability of the wireless site equipment, and the beacon transmission rate, the 802.11g MCS0 modulation method is selected as the target modulation method. The transmission rate of the 802.11g MCS0 modulation method is 6Mbps, meaning that the transmission rate of the target modulation method is greater than the transmission rate of the original modulation method.
[0126] If the first modulation method is the original modulation method (802.11a MCS0 modulation method, transmission rate of 1Mbps), the transmission time of the target beacon frame (length of 140 bytes) over the air interface is 1.12ms.
[0127] If the first modulation method is replaced with the target modulation method (802.11g MCS0 modulation method, transmission rate of 6Mbps), the transmission time of the target beacon frame (length of 140 bytes) in the air interface is 0.187ms, or 187μs. Obviously, the transmission rate of the beacon frame increases, which can reduce the transmission time of the beacon frame.
[0128] It can be seen that if the first modulation method is the original modulation method (802.11a MCS0 modulation method, transmission rate of 1Mbps), the transmission time of the original beacon frame (length of 402 bytes) over the air interface is 3.216ms. If the first modulation method is replaced by the target modulation method (802.11g MCS0 modulation method, transmission rate of 6Mbps), the transmission time of the target beacon frame (length of 140 bytes) over the air interface is 0.187ms, or 187μs. Obviously, the transmission time of the beacon frame over the air interface is greatly reduced in this embodiment, which also greatly reduces the wake-up time of the wireless station device in the sleep cycle, thereby greatly reducing the power consumption of the Wi-Fi kit product. Table 5 shows the measured comparison data of the power consumption of the Wi-Fi kit products of this embodiment and the prior art:
[0129] Table 5. Measured power consumption comparison data of Wi-Fi kit products in this embodiment and prior art.
[0130] 1 1251μa 981μa 3 462μa 354μa 10 221μa 179μa
[0131] As can be seen from the measured comparison data in Table 3 above, this embodiment can reduce the power consumption of Wi-Fi kit products.
[0132] The wireless communication device provided in this application is described below. The wireless communication device described below can be referred to in correspondence with the wireless communication method described above.

[0146] Optionally, the target modulation scheme is associated with at least one of the following factors: the demodulation capability of the wireless station device under various modulation schemes, the sensitivity of the wireless station device under various modulation schemes, the anti-interference capability of the wireless station device, and the beacon transmission rate.
