Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a device networking method, apparatus, electronic device and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] Self-organizing network technology is a technology that implements multicast transmission in wireless communication networks. By automatically forming appropriate communication groups in the network, multiple devices can receive the same information at the same time, thereby achieving efficient data transmission. Electronic devices that support self-organizing networks generally send broadcasts or scan continuously. Only when two electronic devices collide can they achieve the effect of mutual discovery.

[0003] In the process of self-organizing networking, sending broadcasts or scanning will cause electronic devices to generate greater power consumption. If the number of broadcasts or scans is reduced, the probability of two electronic devices discovering each other will be reduced.

[0052] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0053] The device networking method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a broadcast process and a scanning process in the device networking process. The parameters used in the broadcast process and the scanning process are briefly described below:

[0054] Broadcasting process:

[0055] BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) broadcast: BLE broadcast refers to electronic devices periodically sending broadcast packets so that other electronic devices can receive and parse these broadcast packets within their range. BLE broadcast is used for the discovery and quick connection of electronic devices.

[0056] Advertising Interval: The time interval between two consecutive advertising packets. When the advertising interval is short, the speed of device discovery increases, but it also increases power consumption. When the advertising interval is long, power consumption can be saved, but the discovery speed will slow down.

[0057] Advertising Type: Advertising types include different types, for example, advertising types include connectable advertising (used to connect devices), non-connectable advertising (only broadcasting information but not connecting other devices), etc.

[0058] Advertising Data: Advertising data includes device identification information, manufacturer-defined data, etc. These data will be used by other devices to identify the broadcasting device.

[0059] Scanning process:

[0060] BLE scanning: BLE scanning is the process by which an electronic device searches for nearby broadcasting electronic devices and detects their broadcast packets. Scanning can be used to discover nearby BLE devices and establish connections.

[0061] The principle of BLE scanning: The scanning device will periodically monitor the advertising channel to listen for advertising packets from nearby devices. Advertising packets will contain unique identifiers of the devices, which can be used to uniquely identify the devices.

[0062] Scan Window: The scan window is the time during the scan cycle that the scanning device actually monitors the broadcast channel. When the scan window is longer, the broadcast packet can be better detected, but the power consumption will also increase. When the scan window is shorter, the power consumption will be reduced, but it will be difficult to detect the broadcast packet better.

[0063] Scan Interval: The scan interval is the time interval between two scans. When the scan interval is short, the scan frequency can be increased, but the power consumption will increase. When the scan interval is long, the power consumption will be reduced, but the scanning efficiency will be reduced.

[0064] Scan Type: Scan types include active scanning and passive scanning. Active scanning sends requests to obtain more information about the device, while passive scanning only listens to broadcast packets.

[0065] In the related art, the parameters used in the broadcast process and the scanning process are fixed. Based on the fixed parameters, the scanning device continuously monitors the broadcast channel and identifies the identification information in the broadcast packet to determine the nearby devices, which makes it difficult to balance the performance and functions of the electronic device. In view of the problems in the related art, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a solution for dynamically adjusting the parameters used in the self-organizing network process, thereby achieving a balance between the performance and power consumption of the electronic device.

[0066] In the process of self-organizing network, multiple electronic devices are involved, for example, two, three or more electronic devices may be used to form a self-organizing network. The electronic devices may be mobile phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, Bluetooth headsets, vehicle terminals, smart home devices, etc. The following takes the self-organizing network of the first device and the second device as an example to illustrate the self-organizing network process.

[0067] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a device networking method according to an exemplary embodiment, which is executed by a first device, see Figure 1 , the method comprises the following steps:

[0068] Step S101: Acquire event information of a first device, where the event information is used to represent a state of an event related to device networking.

[0069] Among them, events related to device networking include device screen on / off events, user login events, Bluetooth events, WiFi events, and other events. Different events have different states. For example, the states of device screen on / off events include screen on state and screen off state, the states of user login events include login state and non-logged in state, the states of Bluetooth events include Bluetooth on state and Bluetooth off state, and the states of WiFi events include WiFi on state and WiFi off state. These events and their states are closely related to device networking. For example, when Bluetooth is on, a Bluetooth connection can be established during networking, but when Bluetooth is not on, a Bluetooth connection cannot be established during networking.

[0070] Step S102: Acquire first configuration information matching the event information, where the first configuration information is used to represent parameters used when the first device is networked with other electronic devices.

[0071] In the disclosed embodiment, the event information of the first device is different, and the connection mode of the first device when networking with other electronic devices may be different, or the requirements for the connection speed when establishing the connection may be different. That is to say, under different event information, the first device may be more inclined to improve performance when networking, or it may be more inclined to save power consumption. Therefore, fixed configuration information is not used, but first configuration information matching the event information is obtained. The first configuration information is customized for the event information and can meet the performance and power consumption requirements under the event information. For multiple different event information, each event information has matching configuration information, and the same configuration information can match at least one event information.

[0072] The first configuration information may include broadcast parameters and scan parameters, the broadcast parameters may include broadcast interval, broadcast type and broadcast data, and the scan parameters may include scan window, scan interval and scan type. Optionally, the broadcast parameters may include BLE broadcast parameters and mDNS (Multicast Domain Name System) broadcast parameters, and the scan parameters may include BLE scan parameters and mDNS scan parameters.

[0073] Step S103: Networking with the second device based on the first configuration information.

[0074] After the first configuration information is determined, a network may be formed with a second device based on the first configuration information. The second device is any electronic device among a plurality of electronic devices that may be networked with the first device.

[0075] The method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure obtains event information of a first device, the event information is used to characterize the state of events related to device networking; obtains first configuration information matching the event information, the first configuration information is used to characterize the parameters used when the first device is networked with other electronic devices; and networks with a second device based on the first configuration information. The configuration information used in this method matches the event information, rather than using fixed configuration information. Therefore, the configuration information used in device networking can be dynamically adjusted according to the state of events related to device networking, thereby meeting the requirements of low power consumption and high performance, and achieving a balance between the performance and power consumption of electronic devices.

[0076] In order to achieve dynamic adjustment, the embodiment of the present disclosure adopts Figure 2 The device networking framework shown in Figure 2 The electronic device includes a networking interface layer, a networking control module, an event detection module, a networking executor, a networking scheduling configuration module, and a cloud configuration update module, wherein the networking executor includes a first executor and a second executor, the first executor includes a first scheduler and a first worker, and the second executor includes a second scheduler and a second worker. The electronic device also includes a first preset module and a second preset module. Optionally, the first executor may be a BLE executor, the first preset module may be a BLE module, the second executor may be an mDNS executor, and the second preset module may be an mDNS module.

[0077] Among them, the networking interface layer is connected to the networking control module, the networking control module is connected to the event detection module and the networking executor, the networking executor is connected to the networking scheduling configuration module, and the networking scheduling configuration module is connected to the cloud configuration update module.

[0078] The networking interface layer is used to provide an interface for networking; the networking control module is used to control the networking process; the event detection module is used to detect whether the event and the status of the event have changed; the networking executor is used to obtain configuration information from the networking scheduling configuration module, and send the obtained configuration information to the corresponding preset module so that the preset module executes the corresponding networking process; the networking scheduling configuration module is used to configure the configuration information corresponding to different event information; the cloud configuration update module is used to update the configuration file, which includes the configuration information corresponding to different event information.

[0079] In some embodiments, the networking interface layer further includes a networking policy control module, which is used to configure a control policy in the networking process. The networking policy control module can be pre-configured or user-defined.

[0080] Combine the following Figure 2 As shown in the block diagram, Figure 3 The embodiment shown illustrates the device networking process:

[0081] Figure 3 is a flowchart of another device networking method according to an exemplary embodiment, which is executed by a first device, see Figure 3 , the method comprises the following steps:

[0082] Step S301, detecting events related to device networking, and collecting event information when the state of the event changes.

[0083] The event information includes at least one of the following: screen on / off status information; user login status information; Bluetooth switch status information; WiFi switch status information.

[0084] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to dynamically adjust the configuration information used in device networking according to the status of events related to device networking, it is necessary to detect events related to device networking in real time during the networking process. If the status of the event remains unchanged, the current configuration information is used to continue networking. If the status of the event changes, it means that the configuration information may need to be changed. Therefore, when the status of the event changes, the event information is collected, and then the matching configuration information can be obtained based on the latest collected event information.

[0085] In some embodiments, in response to starting the networking control module, an event related to device networking is detected through an event detection module, and whether the status of the event has changed is identified through the event detection module. When the status of the event changes, event information is collected, and when the status of the event does not change, event information is not collected.

[0086] Optionally, collecting event information includes: reporting current event information to the networking control module through the event detection module.

[0087] Step S302: obtaining first configuration information matching the event information from the networking scheduling configuration module through the networking executor.

[0088] In some embodiments, the networking executor includes a first executor and a second executor, the first executor is used to obtain parameters related to the first communication connection, and the second executor is used to obtain parameters related to the second communication connection, for example, the first executor is a BLE executor, and the second executor is an mDNS executor. The first configuration information matching the event information is obtained from the networking scheduling configuration module through the networking executor, including: determining a target executor matching the event information, the target executor including at least one of the first executor and the second executor; obtaining the first configuration information matching the event information from the networking scheduling configuration module through the target executor.

[0089] That is, based on the event information, the communication connection that can be established is determined. If it is determined based on the event information that a first communication connection can be established, it is determined that the target executor includes the first executor; if it is determined based on the event information that a second communication connection can be established, it is determined that the target executor includes the second executor; if the first communication connection and the second communication connection are determined based on the event information, it is determined that the target executor includes the first executor and the second executor.

[0090] When the target executor includes a first executor, the first configuration information is obtained from the networking scheduling configuration module through the first executor. In this case, the first configuration information is used to represent the parameters used when the first device establishes a first communication connection with other electronic devices; when the target executor includes a second executor, the first configuration information is obtained from the networking scheduling configuration module through the second executor. In this case, the first configuration information is used to represent the parameters used when the first device establishes a second communication connection with other electronic devices; when the target executor includes a first executor and a second executor, the first configuration information is obtained from the networking scheduling configuration module through the first executor and the second executor. In this case, the first configuration information is used to represent the parameters used when the first device establishes a first communication connection with other electronic devices and the parameters used when establishing a second communication connection.

[0091] Optionally, the networking executor includes a scheduler and a worker, the first executor includes a first scheduler and a first worker, the second executor includes a second scheduler and a second worker, and the target executor obtains first configuration information matching the event information from the networking scheduling configuration module, including: obtaining first configuration information matching the event information from the networking scheduling configuration module through the target scheduler. The target scheduler includes at least one of the first scheduler and the second scheduler.

[0092] Optionally, a target executor matching the event information is determined through a networking control module.

[0093] In some embodiments, the latest configuration information is obtained from the cloud through the networking scheduling configuration module, thereby ensuring that the first configuration information obtained from the networking scheduling configuration module is the latest configuration information. Optionally, the latest configuration information is obtained from the cloud through the cloud configuration update module, and then the latest configuration information is obtained from the cloud configuration update module through the networking scheduling configuration module.

[0094] In addition, in some embodiments, when obtaining configuration information, the preset duration and priority corresponding to the configuration information are also obtained. The preset duration is the duration of networking based on the configuration information. With respect to the priority, the first device may obtain multiple configuration information based on different event information. When there are multiple configuration information, the configuration information with the highest priority is selected as the configuration information used for networking.

[0095] In some embodiments, the configuration information also has corresponding platform information, device type information, and device model information. When the platform of the first device satisfies the platform information, the device type of the first device satisfies the device type information, and the device model of the first device satisfies the device model information, it is determined that the first configuration information can be obtained. Among them, the platform information is used to characterize the platform on which the configuration information can be used, for example, the platform can be an operating system such as Android and iOS; the device type information is used to characterize the device type of the electronic device that can use the configuration information, for example, the device type can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc.; the device signal information is used to characterize the device model of the electronic device that can use the configuration information.

[0096] It should be noted that the configuration information in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be directly parameters related to the communication connection, or may be a pre-configured execution action, which includes parameters related to the communication connection.

[0097] In addition, in some embodiments, an inheritance relationship may be configured in the configuration information, and a parent (root) may be specified to reduce the configuration complexity of the configuration information.

[0098] Step S303: determine the target configuration information based on the first priority and the second priority, where the target configuration information is the first configuration information or the second configuration information, the first priority is the priority of the first configuration information, and the second priority is the priority of the second configuration information currently used by the first device.

[0099] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first device currently uses the second configuration information for networking. When the status of the event changes during the networking process, after obtaining the first configuration information, it is necessary to determine whether to continue using the second configuration information or use the first configuration information based on the priority of the first configuration information and the second configuration information.

[0100] When the first priority is higher than the second priority, the target configuration information is determined to be the first configuration information; when the second priority is higher than the first priority, the target configuration information is determined to be the second configuration information.

[0101] In some embodiments, the target configuration information is determined by the scheduler based on the first priority and the second priority.

[0102] Step S304: Networking with the second device based on the target configuration information.

[0103] After the target configuration information is determined, the network can be formed with the second device based on the target configuration information. When the target configuration information is the first configuration information, the process of forming a network based on the second configuration information is interrupted, and the network is formed with the second device again based on the first configuration information. When the target configuration information is the second configuration information, the network is continued to be formed with the second device based on the second configuration information.

[0104] In some embodiments, the target configuration information is sent to the preset module through the worker; and the preset module is networked with the second device based on the target configuration information. The preset module may be a Bluetooth module, a local area network module, or other module for establishing a communication connection. Optionally, when the target configuration information is obtained through the first scheduler, the target configuration information is sent to the first preset module through the first worker, and the network is networked with the second device based on the target configuration information through the first preset module; when the target configuration information is obtained through the second scheduler, the target configuration information is sent to the second preset module through the second worker, and the network is networked with the second device based on the target configuration information based on the second preset module.

[0105] In some embodiments, within the preset duration corresponding to the target configuration information, networking is performed with the second device based on the target configuration information. When the preset duration ends, if networking is not completed, networking is performed with the second device based on configuration information with a lower priority.

[0106] In some embodiments, the target configuration information includes a first broadcast parameter and a first scanning parameter related to establishing a first communication connection, and a second broadcast parameter and a second scanning parameter related to establishing a second communication connection; networking with the second device based on the target configuration information includes: based on the target configuration information, sending broadcast information, the broadcast information includes at least the device identification, account, service information, Internet Protocol (IP) address and port information of the first device; based on the broadcast information, establishing a first communication connection and a second communication connection with the second device.

[0107] In other embodiments, the target configuration information includes a first broadcast parameter and a first scanning parameter related to establishing a first communication connection; networking with the second device based on the target configuration information includes: sending broadcast information based on the target configuration information, the broadcast information including at least a device identification, account number and service information of the first device; and establishing a first communication connection with the second device based on the broadcast information.

[0108] In other embodiments, the target configuration information includes a second broadcast parameter and a second scan parameter related to establishing a second communication connection; networking with the second device based on the target configuration information includes: based on the target configuration information, sending broadcast information, the broadcast information includes at least the device identification, account, service information, Internet Protocol address and port information of the first device; based on the broadcast information, establishing a second communication connection with the second device.

[0109] The first communication connection may be a BLE connection, and the second communication connection may be a local area network connection.

[0110] The method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure uses configuration information that matches event information instead of fixed configuration information. Therefore, the configuration information used in device networking can be dynamically adjusted according to the state of events related to device networking, thereby meeting the requirements of low power consumption and high performance, and achieving a balance between the performance and power consumption of electronic devices. In addition, in this way, various scheduling strategies for services in different scenarios and different devices can be met. For example, powered devices can be more performance-oriented.

[0111] In some embodiments, the low power consumption feature of BLE is fully utilized, and BLE is used to assist in LAN networking. For example, when the device screen is off, the BLE broadcast carries the device ID, account ID, IP address, port information and other information of the first device. When the second device scans the BLE broadcast, it extracts the IP address and port information of the first device, and then the first device and the second device establish a LAN connection to complete the networking, thereby realizing device networking in the device screen off state. When the device screen is on, the BLE broadcast may also carry the IP address and port information. When the second device and the first device are in the same LAN, the first device and the second device can establish a LAN connection, thereby realizing BLE networking on the LAN link. This method supports LAN networking of screen-off devices with low power consumption when the device screen is off, and supports networking support for screen-off devices in device interconnection scenarios to meet some requirements when the device screen is off, such as accessing files of the screen-off device, or other interactions with the screen-off device. The following is through Figure 4 The embodiment shown illustrates the BLE-assisted LAN networking process:

[0112] Figure 4 is a flowchart showing a device networking process according to an exemplary embodiment, see Figure 4 , performed by the first device and the second device, the method comprises the following steps:

[0113] Step S401: The first device sends BLE broadcast information based on the target configuration information. The BLE broadcast information includes the device identification, account number, service information, IP address and port information of the first device.

[0114] The target configuration information includes a broadcast interval, a broadcast type, and broadcast data. The first device can periodically send BLE broadcast information based on the target configuration information.

[0115] Step S402: The second device receives BLE broadcast information and performs BLE scanning.

[0116] When performing BLE scanning, it is determined whether the first device and the second device can form an ad hoc network. If so, step S403 is executed, otherwise the process ends.

[0117] In some embodiments, the same account device self-organizing network technology is used. The same account device self-organizing network technology is a technology that uses the same account information of the user on different devices to automatically form a network between these devices. Therefore, for the second device, the second device identifies the BLE broadcast information sent by other devices with the same account as the second device from the received BLE broadcast information.

[0118] Step S403: The second device establishes a LAN connection with the first device according to the IP address and port information, and / or the second device establishes a BLE connection with the first device according to the device identification, account, and service information.

[0119] In the disclosed embodiment, LAN networking and BLE networking are implemented simultaneously.

[0120] Step S404: The first device performs identity authentication with the second device.

[0121] After establishing the connection, the first device and the second device can use digital certificates to perform identity authentication to ensure the legitimacy of the connection. In addition, identity authentication can prevent malicious devices from joining the self-organizing network of the first device and the second device, thereby ensuring the security of data exchange.

[0122] Step S405: The first device exchanges device information with the second device.

[0123] After the connection is established and the identity authentication is completed, the first device and the second device can exchange information with each other, for example, they can exchange device types, functions supported by the devices, device status, etc., so as to coordinate the cooperation between the first device and the second device and share resources and data.

[0124] Step S406: The first device is disconnected from the second device and resources are released.

[0125] After the collaboration between the first device and the second device ends, the BLE connection and / or the local area network connection may be disconnected, thereby releasing resources and saving power consumption.

[0126] In some embodiments, the first device or the second device may send a specific instruction to the other end to notify the other end to disconnect.

[0127] In the method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the BLE broadcast includes information for establishing a BLE connection and information for establishing a local area network connection. Since the overhead and success rate caused by the BLE connection are lower than those of the local area network connection, if the local area network connection is available, the BLE connection is replaced by the local area network connection, which can reduce the BLE resource overhead and improve the success rate and performance of the BLE network. In addition, by carrying the IP address and port information in the BLE broadcast information, combining the respective characteristics of the BLE network and the local area network, adjusting the original connection method (i.e., the method of establishing a BLE connection through the BLE broadcast information), the networking of the device in the off-screen state is achieved, the overhead of the BLE link is reduced, and the performance and success rate of the BLE network are improved.

[0128] Figure 5 is a block diagram of an apparatus for processing executable code according to an exemplary embodiment, which is configured in a first device, see Figure 5 , the device comprises:

[0129] An event information acquisition module 501 is configured to acquire event information of a first device, where the event information is used to represent a state of an event related to device networking;
