[0042] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0043] Each router has its own specific maximum number of client connections. Once this limit is exceeded, new devices cannot access the network or the network performance of connected devices will be degraded. In addition, the signal strength of the router tends to weaken as the distance increases, resulting in a decrease in connection speed or unstable connection. Therefore, the current device networking method is limited by the number of devices connected to the router and the distance of device connection, and cannot meet the networking communication needs of multiple devices on a large scale.

[0044] Based on this, this application proposes the following technical solutions, see below for details:

[0045] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a flow chart of a device communication cascade method provided in an embodiment of the present application; the present application provides a device communication cascade method, which specifically includes the following:

[0046] S110: Obtain a device cluster in the area to be connected to the network, and configure the AP mode and the Station mode of each device in the device cluster; the device cluster is composed of a router and multiple devices; the AP mode is used to generate the networking data of the corresponding device.

[0047] In this step, when it is necessary to perform device communication cascading on the device cluster in the area to be connected, the computer device can first obtain the device cluster in the area to be connected, which is composed of a router and multiple devices. At this time, the computer device can configure the AP mode and Station mode of each device in the device cluster, so that each device can use the Station mode to connect to the router, and can also generate networking data through the AP mode, serving as a relay node for networking other distant devices.

[0048] Among them, AP mode refers to wireless access point mode, which is mainly used to create a wireless network so that surrounding devices can access the Internet or local area network through it; in AP mode, the device can act as a wireless access point to provide network connection services for other devices. Station mode refers to wireless terminal mode, which is mainly used to allow the device to communicate with the router or access point as a network terminal to obtain network access rights; in Station mode, the device can act as a client to scan and connect to an existing wireless network nearby, that is, the network provided by AP mode.

[0049] It is understandable that in order to further expand the coverage and signal strength of the router network, computer devices can enable AP mode in the device, allowing these devices to generate their own network signals and their corresponding networking data as relay nodes, so that in the area to be networked, devices that are far away or have weak signals can also access the network through these relay nodes. In short, each AP mode device will broadcast its network signal, allowing other devices that are farther away to connect to it through Station mode, and then transmit data back to the router through it, thus forming a multi-level network cascade structure, realizing the direct networking of each device with the router, and can also optimize the network coverage and communication quality through the setting of relay nodes.

[0050] S120: Determine the networking priority of each device based on the area to be networked and the router, and connect the devices to the network in turn according to the networking priority.

[0051] In this step, after configuring the dual mode for each device through step S110, the computer device can also determine the networking priority of each device based on the area to be connected to the network and the router, and connect each device to the network in turn according to the networking priority, so as to avoid disorder in the networking process, resulting in failure of some devices to connect to the network or unstable networking signals.

[0052] Specifically, computer equipment can intelligently determine the networking priority of each device based on the layout of the area to be connected, the location of the router, the distance of each device, signal strength and other factors; by reasonably setting the networking priority of each device, computer equipment can gradually allow devices to access the network in an orderly and phased manner. For example, computer equipment can give priority to connecting devices with closer distances and stronger signals to the network. These devices can be used as initial nodes for stable connection and establish a reliable basic network; then other devices are connected in turn according to signal strength and network dependency, and gradually expanded to the periphery to avoid problems such as signal interference and connection failure caused by simultaneous networking, thereby improving the efficiency and stability of the overall networking.

[0053] It is understandable that the present application can avoid signal conflicts when multiple devices request connection at the same time or degradation of connection quality due to interference through hierarchical priority access. In the present application, the computer device can first connect to the device with the highest networking priority, and then process the networking requests of subsequent devices in sequence according to the preset priority list; for long-distance devices that need to rely on relay nodes, the computer device can gradually connect the long-distance devices to the network through the relay nodes after the device serving as the relay node is stably connected to the router, thereby ensuring the reliability of the device connection path and the stability of the signal.

[0054] S130: For each device, perform a network scan through the Station mode of the device, and sort the signal strengths of the routers and / or networked devices in the scan results to obtain a sorting result.

[0055] In this step, when the computer device connects various devices to the network, for each device, the computer device can perform a network scan through the Station mode of the device, and sort the signal strength of the routers and / or networked devices in the scan results to obtain the sorting results, and then connect the devices to the network based on the sorting results to ensure the stability of the network signal.

[0056] Among them, the networked device refers to a device that has been connected to the router and has turned on the AP mode, so it can act as a relay node to connect other devices to the router.

[0057] Specifically, for each device to be connected to the network, the computer device can trigger the network scanning process through the Station mode of the device. In this mode, the device will automatically scan the surrounding wireless network signals and detect nearby routers and other networked devices; the scanning results can include detailed information of each detected wireless network, such as SSID (network name), signal strength (such as RSSI value), network frequency band (such as 2.4GHz or 5GHz), encryption method and other information. After obtaining the scanning results, the computer device can use the signal strength in the scanning results to sort all available wireless networks from high to low according to signal strength, and then can preferentially connect to the network with the strongest signal according to the sorting results, ensuring that the device chooses to connect to the network node with the most stable signal and the best quality, thereby improving the overall quality of the device communication cascade.

[0058] S140: Using the router and / or networking device with the highest signal strength in the sorting results as the access end of the device, and connecting the device to the network based on the networking data of the access end to form a networking device.

[0059] In this step, after obtaining the sorting results through step S130, the computer device can use the router and / or networking device with the highest signal strength in the sorting results as the access end of the device, and connect the device to the network based on the networking data of the access end to form a networked device, thereby ensuring the signal stability of each networked device.

[0060] Specifically, the computer device can lock the network device with the highest signal strength in the sorting results, such as a router or a device that has been connected to the router, and then use the network device as the access end of the device to be connected to the network and try to connect to the network. After the connection is successful, the access end serves as the data transmission path of the connected device and can provide it with network access rights. Based on this, when the device of the present application is connected to the network, it can choose the path with the strongest signal and the best connection quality to join the network, forming a stable networked device.

[0061] In the above embodiment, when performing device communication cascading, a device cluster of the area to be networked can be obtained. The device cluster is composed of a router and multiple devices. At this time, the AP mode and Station mode of each device can be configured in the device cluster, so that the two modes can be used to connect the connected devices as relay nodes between other non-networked devices and the router, thereby avoiding the limitations of the number of devices connected to the router and the distance of device connection. For example, the present application can determine the networking priority of each device based on the area to be networked and the router, and connect each device in turn according to each networking priority, so as to achieve communication cascading of each device; in the networking process, for each device, the network can be scanned through the Station mode of the device, and the signal strength of the routers and / or networked devices in the scanning results can be sorted to obtain the sorting results, and then the router and / or networked device with the highest signal strength in the sorting results is used as the access end of the device, and the device is connected to the network based on the networking data of the access end to form a networked device, so as to ensure the signal stability of each networked device.

[0062] In one embodiment, the process of configuring the AP mode and the Station mode of each device in the device cluster in step S110 may include:

[0063] S111: Access the management interface of the device cluster, and start the AP mode and the Station mode of each device in the management interface.

[0064] S112: Generate corresponding networking data for each device based on the AP mode of each device, and restart each device to make each networking data effective.

[0065] In this embodiment, when the computer device configures the mode of each device, it can access the management interface of the device cluster, and then start the AP mode and Station mode of each device in the management interface. Then, the computer device can generate corresponding networking data for each device based on the AP mode of each device, and restart each device to make the networking data take effect.

[0066] Specifically, the computer device can be connected to each device in the device cluster by wire or wirelessly, so that the automatic configuration operation of the device can be implemented on the computer device. In detail, the computer device can enter the setting page of each device, and find and select AP mode and Station mode in the relevant options of the setting page, such as network settings and wireless settings, to enable the dual-mode configuration of each device. In addition, when the computer device detects that each device has turned on the AP mode, it can also automatically generate corresponding networking data for each device, such as network name, connection password, signal strength, etc.

[0067] It should be noted that when the device turns on AP mode for the first time, the computer device can generate and store networking data in the device according to preset rules; when the device turns on AP mode again, the device can directly obtain the networking data generated for the first time and use it.

[0068] It can be understood that through the centralized configuration of computer devices, the present application can reduce the complexity of manual operations and the possibility of configuration errors, thereby ensuring that the device cluster can operate in the best network state and form a stable and reliable networking environment in the area to be connected.

[0069] In one embodiment, the process of determining the networking priority of each device based on the area to be networked and the router in step S120 may include:

[0070] S121: Determine the location coordinates of the router in the area to be connected to the network, and the device distance between each device and the location coordinates.

[0071] S122: Perform threshold matching on the distances of various devices in a preset distance mapping table, and determine the networking priority of each device according to the matching result.

[0072] In this embodiment, when determining the networking priority, the computer device can first determine the location coordinates of the router in the area to be networked, and the device distance between each device and the location coordinates, and then perform threshold matching on each device distance in a preset distance mapping table, and determine the networking priority of each device based on the matching results.

[0073] Among them, the distance mapping table refers to a data table or data structure used to store the mapping relationship between device thresholds and networking priorities. It provides a basis for the allocation of device networking priorities by defining the association between multiple distance thresholds, such as 5 meters, 10 meters or 15 meters and corresponding priority levels.

[0074] Specifically, the storage content in the distance mapping table can be stored in the form of key-value pairs; wherein the key represents the distance threshold, such as 0-5 meters, 5-10 meters, 10-15 meters, etc., and the value represents the networking priority corresponding to the device within the distance threshold, such as the networking priority corresponding to the distance priority of 0-5 meters is 1, the networking priority corresponding to the distance priority of 5-10 meters is 2, the networking priority corresponding to the distance priority of 10-15 meters is 3, etc.

[0075] In one embodiment, the process of performing network search through the station mode of the device in step S130 may include:

[0076] S131: Triggering the Station mode of the device so that the device initiates a detection request and receives a response packet returned by a router and / or networked device within the signal coverage range of the device in response to the detection request.

[0077] S132: Analyze the received response packets to obtain the network data corresponding to each response packet.

[0078] In this embodiment, when the device needs to be connected to the Internet, the computer device can trigger the Station mode of the device to enable the device to initiate a detection request and receive the response packet returned by the router and / or networked device within the signal coverage of the device after responding to the detection request; then the computer device can perform data analysis on each response packet received by the device, so as to obtain the network data corresponding to each response packet. Since the network data includes the network name, connection password and signal strength, the computer device can determine the wireless network to be connected by the device based on the parsed network data, thereby improving the quality of the device's network connection.

[0079] Specifically, after the computer device triggers the Station mode of the device, in the Station mode, the device can act as a client in the wireless network, start the wireless network scanning function, and start searching and recording all available wireless network signals within its signal coverage. In this process, the device can actively send a detection request to the surrounding environment, and the detection request will be received and responded to by all routers and networked devices within its signal coverage, thereby generating and returning a response packet; each response packet here carries detailed network information, including the network name, encryption method, connection password, signal strength, network frequency band, current device load information and other data; after the device receives these response packets, the computer device will parse the data in each response packet one by one, extract the key information therein, and form networking data, so that the subsequent device networking process can accurately obtain the characteristics and connection parameters of each network device available in the current network environment, thereby improving the quality of device networking.

[0080] In one embodiment, the process of performing signal strength sorting on the routers and / or networked devices in the scan results to obtain the sorting results in step S130 may include:

[0081] S133: Determine the networking data of each router and / or networking device in the scanning result, and extract the signal strength in each networking data.

[0082] S134: Sort the signal strengths in descending order to obtain a sorting result.

[0083] In this embodiment, after obtaining the scanning results of the device, the computer device can determine the networking data of each router and / or networking device in the scanning results, and extract the signal strength in each networking data, and then sort the signal strengths from high to low to obtain the sorting results, and then select the network access terminal with the strongest signal for the device based on the sorting results.

[0084] Specifically, the signal strength in each network data is usually expressed in percentage, dBm (decibel milliwatt) or similar units, which is mainly used to measure the quality of the signal. In this application, the computer device can use an appropriate sorting algorithm, such as a descending sorting algorithm, to sort the signal strengths, so that the first in the sorting result is the network device with the strongest signal. In addition, the sorting algorithm here can also use bubble sort, selection sort, insertion sort, etc., which are not limited here.

[0085] In one embodiment, the process of connecting the device to a network based on the networking data of the access terminal to form a networked device in step S140 may include:

[0086] S141: Acquire the networking data of the access end, and extract the network name and connection password from the networking data.

[0087] S142: Automatically input the network name and connection password into the device to connect the device to the access terminal to form a networked device.

[0088] In this embodiment, after determining the access end of the device, the computer device can obtain the networking data of the access end, and then extract the network name and connection password in the networking data, so that the network name and connection password can be input into the device to connect the device to the access end to form a networked device.

[0089] It is understandable that after the computer device inputs the network name and connection password into the device, the device will initiate a connection request to the access end based on this, so that the access end can perform security verification on the network name and connection password carried in the connection request, and establish a secure connection with it after the verification is passed. At this time, the device has officially completed the communication cascade, becoming a part of the network and forming a networked device, so it can interact with the access end and other devices. In this process, the computer device can improve the networking efficiency through automated extraction and automated input, thereby ensuring the security and stability of the network connection, so that the device can quickly and reliably access the corresponding network.

[0090] In one embodiment, the method may further include:

[0091] S150: Regularly detect the strength of the network signal of each device in the networked area, and when it is detected that the network signal of a device is lower than a preset threshold, re-scan the network and perform network operations through the Station mode of the device.

[0092] In this embodiment, after the device cluster in the area to be connected to the network realizes communication cascade, the computer device can also periodically detect the strength of the network signal of each device in the area to be connected to the network, and when it is detected that the network signal of a device is lower than a preset threshold, the network scan and networking operation are re-performed through the Station mode of the device to maintain the stability of the network signal.

[0093] It is understandable that during the network connection process, the computer device can periodically detect the signal strength and network status of each device to ensure that the connection quality of the device is always in the best state. If the signal fluctuation or quality degradation of the access point is detected, the computer device can rescan in real time and select a more stable access point for switching based on the latest ranking result of the signal strength in the scan results to avoid data transmission interruption or connection loss caused by unstable signal.

[0094] In order to better explain the text matching method of this application, the following will be Figure 2 To further illustrate, schematically, Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A structural diagram of a device communication cascade result provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0095] Figure 2In the example, taking devices 1, 4, and 7 as examples, the priorities of devices 1, 4, and 7 decrease step by step. Therefore, when communicating and cascading devices 1, 4, and 7, device 1 can automatically search / enter the network name and connection password of the WIFI router through the Station mode to connect to the WIFI router, and start the AP mode at the same time, so that device 4 can automatically search / enter the network name and connection password of device 1 through the Station mode to connect to device 1, and start the AP mode; similarly, device 7 can automatically search / enter the network name and connection password of device 4 through the Station mode to connect to device 4, thereby realizing the communication cascade of devices 1, 4, and 7. In addition, the communication cascade process of devices 2, 5, 8 and devices 3, 6, and 9 is consistent with that of devices 1, 4, and 7, and will not be repeated here.

[0096] The device communication cascade apparatus provided in an embodiment of the present application is described below. The device communication cascade apparatus described below and the device communication cascade method described above can be referenced to each other.

[0097] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of a device communication cascade device provided in an embodiment of the present application; the present application also provides a device communication cascade device, including a mode configuration module 210, a priority determination module 220, a network scanning module 230 and a device networking module 240, specifically including the following:

[0099] The priority determination module 220 is used to determine the networking priority of each device based on the area to be connected to the network and the router, and connect each device to the network in turn according to each networking priority.

[0100] The network scanning module 230 is used to perform a network scan on each device through the Station mode of the device, and sort the signal strengths of the routers and / or networked devices in the scan results to obtain a sorting result.

[0101] The device networking module 240 is used to use the router and / or networking device with the highest signal strength in the sorting results as the access end of the device, and connect the device to the network based on the networking data of the access end to form a networked device.

The device cluster is composed of a router and multiple devices. At this time, the AP mode and Station mode of each device can be configured in the device cluster, so that the two modes can be used to connect the connected devices as relay nodes between other non-networked devices and the router, thereby avoiding the limitations of the number of devices connected to the router and the distance of device connection. For example, the present application can determine the networking priority of each device based on the area to be networked and the router, and connect each device in turn according to each networking priority, so as to achieve communication cascading of each device; in the networking process, for each device, the network can be scanned through the Station mode of the device, and the signal strength of the routers and / or networked devices in the scanning results can be sorted to obtain the sorting results, and then the router and / or networked device with the highest signal strength in the sorting results is used as the access end of the device, and the device is connected to the network based on the networking data of the access end to form a networked device, so as to ensure the signal stability of each networked device.
