Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of communication transmission, and particularly relates to a method and device for controlling the power consumption of wireless network devices based on PON. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of information and communication technologies, wireless network devices play an important role in various application scenarios. Especially in wireless access networks based on fiber-to-the-home (PON) technology, the requirements for communication efficiency and stability between terminal devices and network devices are increasing day by day. However, with the continuous increase in the number of wireless network devices, the problem of device power consumption has become more prominent. Especially when the devices are in long-term use or in a low-load state, how to effectively control the power consumption of wireless network devices has become an urgent technical problem to be solved.

[0003] In the prior art, although there are some solutions for optimizing the power consumption of wireless network devices, most of the solutions have certain limitations. For example, some methods only focus on the power consumption management of devices in a specific working mode, ignoring the influence of factors such as the distance between devices and roaming priorities on power consumption, resulting in unsatisfactory power consumption control effects in scenarios such as device handover and user migration. In addition, traditional power consumption control methods often do not consider the dynamic adjustment and intelligent collaboration between devices, resulting in the inability of device power consumption to respond in real time to changes in the network environment and device status, affecting the overall performance of the wireless network. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, embodiments of the present invention provide a method and device for controlling the power consumption of wireless network devices based on PON to solve the technical problem that traditional power consumption control methods often do not consider the dynamic adjustment and intelligent collaboration between devices, resulting in the inability of device power consumption to respond in real time to changes in the network environment and device status.

[0005] The first aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides a method for controlling the power consumption of wireless network devices based on PON, and the method for controlling the power consumption of wireless network devices based on PON includes:

[0006] Obtain the equivalent distance between the target wireless network device and multiple other wireless network devices; the target wireless network device refers to the wireless network device currently connected by the terminal device;

[0007] According to the equivalent distance, match the target power consumption policy tags corresponding to the multiple other wireless network devices; the target power consumption policy tags include a performance mode, an energy-saving mode, and a sleep mode;

[0008] Obtain the roaming priorities of multiple other wireless network devices;

[0009] Adjust the device power consumption corresponding to the other wireless network devices according to the target power consumption policy label and the roaming priority.

[0010] Further, before the step of obtaining the equivalent distances between the target wireless network device and multiple other wireless network devices, the method further includes:

[0011] Switch the device state of the current wireless network device from the AP mode to the STA mode, and collect the wireless signal strengths of the other wireless network devices;

[0012] If the wireless signal strengths of the other wireless network devices are collected, multiply the wireless signal strengths corresponding to the other wireless network devices by the distance conversion coefficient to obtain the equivalent distances corresponding to the other wireless network devices;

[0013] If the wireless signal strengths of the other wireless network devices are not collected, use a preset value as the equivalent distance of the other wireless network devices.

[0014] Further, the step of matching the target power consumption policy labels corresponding to the multiple other wireless network devices according to the equivalent distances includes:

[0015] Obtain the distance range corresponding to each power consumption policy label;

[0016] Use the power consumption policy label corresponding to the distance range where the equivalent distance is located as the target power consumption policy label.

[0017] Further, before the step of obtaining the roaming priorities of the multiple other wireless network devices, the method further includes:

[0018] Obtain the total connection duration of all wireless network devices within a preset cycle duration;

[0020] Calculate the roaming priority according to the total connection duration, the connection duration, the connection times, the total data volume, the average delay, and the packet loss rate.

[0021] Further, the step of calculating the roaming priority according to the total connection duration, the connection duration, the connection times, the total data volume, the average delay, and the packet loss rate includes:

[0022] Substitute the total connection duration, the connection duration, the connection times, the total data volume, the average delay, and the packet loss rate into a preset function to obtain the roaming priority output by the preset function;

[0023] The preset function is as follows:

[0024]

[0025] Wherein, represents the roaming priority of the th other wireless network device, represents the total connection duration, represents the connection duration of the th other wireless network device, represents the connection times of the th other wireless network device, represents the total data volume of the th other wireless network device, represents the average delay of the th other wireless network device, represents the packet loss rate of the th other wireless network device, represents the maximum value of the connection times of all wireless network devices, represents the maximum value of the total data volume of all wireless network devices, , , , and represent preset weight coefficients.

[0026] Furthermore, the step of adjusting the device power consumption corresponding to the other wireless network device according to the target power consumption policy label and the roaming priority includes:

[0027] [[ID=5,2]]Adjust the target power consumption policy label according to the roaming priority to obtain the current power consumption policy label;

[0028] Adjust the device power consumption corresponding to the other wireless network device according to the power consumption parameters in the current power consumption policy label.

[0029] Furthermore, the step of adjusting the target power consumption policy label according to the roaming priority to obtain the current power consumption policy label includes:

[0030] Obtain three gear adjustment value ranges corresponding to the preset gear adjustment policy; the three gear adjustment value ranges include an upshift value range, a neutral gear value range, and a downshift value range;

[0031] Match the gear adjustment value range in which the roaming priority is located;

[0032] If the gear-shifting value range in which the roaming priority is located is the upshift value range, the previous power consumption policy label is used as the current power consumption policy label; the previous power consumption policy label refers to the power consumption policy label before the target power consumption policy label; the power consumption policy labels are sorted from high to low as the performance mode, the energy-saving mode, and the sleep mode;

[0033] If the gear-shifting value range in which the roaming priority is located is the flat gear value range, the target power consumption policy label is used as the current power consumption policy label;

[0034] If the gear-shifting value range in which the roaming priority is located is the downshift value range, the subsequent power consumption policy label is used as the current power consumption policy label; the subsequent power consumption policy label refers to the power consumption policy label after the target power consumption policy label.

[0035] The second aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides a power consumption control device for a PON-based wireless network device, including:

[0036] A first acquisition unit, configured to acquire the equivalent distance between a target wireless network device and multiple other wireless network devices; the target wireless network device refers to the wireless network device currently connected by a terminal device;

[0041] The fourth aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium, where the computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, the steps in the power consumption control method for the PON-based wireless network device described in the first aspect above are implemented.

[0042] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows: By obtaining the equivalent distance between the target wireless network device and other wireless network devices, a suitable power consumption strategy is matched according to this distance. This approach can intelligently adjust the power consumption mode of each device according to the actual network topology and the distance difference between terminal devices. This distance-based power consumption control method makes power consumption management more flexible and efficient. The present invention also combines the roaming priority of wireless network devices to ensure that the power consumption strategy can be adjusted according to the priority when roaming between devices. Different devices may face different priorities when roaming, and the system will reasonably reduce unnecessary power consumption while ensuring the user experience according to the roaming priority of the device and the selected power consumption strategy. This innovation not only optimizes the power consumption control of the device, but also improves the network connection quality of the user during the roaming process, avoiding signal instability problems caused by too high or too low power consumption. By comprehensively considering the above multiple factors, the present invention can adjust the power consumption of wireless network devices in real time, avoiding the limitations of traditional static power consumption control methods. Especially when the device is in a low-load, idle or roaming state, it can intelligently switch to the low-power mode, significantly reducing the energy consumption of the wireless network device. Through this dynamic adjustment method, not only the energy efficiency of the device is improved, but also the service life of the device is extended and the operation cost is reduced.

[0047] In the following description, specific details such as specific system architectures and technologies are presented for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, so as to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art should clearly understand that the present invention can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to avoid unnecessary details from interfering with the description of the present invention.

[0048] Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and device for power consumption control of a PON-based wireless network device to solve the technical problem that traditional power consumption control methods often do not consider the dynamic adjustment and intelligent cooperation between devices, resulting in the energy consumption of the device not being able to respond in real time to changes in the network environment and device status.

[0049] First, the present invention provides a method for power consumption control of a PON-based wireless network device. Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which shows a schematic flowchart of a method for power consumption control of a PON-based wireless network device provided by the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, the method for power consumption control of the PON-based wireless network device may include the following steps:

[0050] Step 101: Obtain the equivalent distance between the target wireless network device and multiple other wireless network devices; the target wireless network device refers to the wireless network device currently connected by the terminal device;

[0051] The target wireless network device refers to the wireless network device currently connected by the terminal device. The equivalent distance refers to the relative distance between devices calculated through signal strength or other metrics. This distance is not the physical distance but the "equivalent" distance obtained through factors such as signal transmission, which reflects the network communication quality or connection distance between the terminal device and other wireless devices.

[0052] Optionally, before step 101, the following steps A1 to A3 are further included:

[0053] Step A1: Switch the device status of the current wireless network device from AP mode to STA mode, and collect the wireless signal strengths of other wireless network devices;

[0054] AP mode (Access Point mode) and STA mode (Station mode) are two working modes of wireless network devices. In AP mode, the device acts as an access point of the network, receiving connection requests from other devices (such as terminal devices); while in STA mode, the device acts as a client to connect to the wireless network. In this step, the device switches to STA mode, which means it no longer acts as an access point but starts to receive signals from other wireless network devices. This is to ensure that the current device can actively collect the signal strength of other wireless devices for further calculation of the equivalent distance.

[0055] Once the device switches to STA mode, it begins to monitor and collect the wireless signal strength emitted by other wireless network devices (such as neighboring routers, access points, etc.). The signal strength is usually measured through wireless network protocols (such as RSSI in Wi-Fi, Received Signal Strength Indicator). The magnitude of the wireless signal strength can reflect the distance between the device and the signal source or the signal quality. A strong signal usually indicates that the device is close to the signal source, while a weak signal means that the device is far from the signal source.

[0056] Step A2: If the wireless signal strength of other wireless network devices is collected, multiply the wireless signal strength corresponding to the other wireless network devices by the distance conversion coefficient to obtain the equivalent distance corresponding to the other wireless network devices;

[0057] The distance conversion coefficient is a coefficient used to convert the signal strength into a distance. There is usually a certain attenuation law between the strength of the wireless signal and the distance, but due to environmental factors (such as walls, buildings, interference from other wireless devices, etc.), the relationship between the signal strength and the actual distance is not completely linear. Therefore, by introducing the distance conversion coefficient, the collected signal strength can be converted into an "equivalent distance", that is, the relative distance between devices or the distance of signal propagation.

[0058] Step A3: If the wireless signal strength of other wireless network devices is not collected, use a preset value as the equivalent distance of the other wireless network devices.

[0059] In an actual network environment, sometimes due to signal interference, network environment complexity or other reasons, it may not be possible to successfully collect the signal strength of some wireless devices. At this time, to ensure that the system can continue the calculation of power consumption control, a preset value is used as a backup. The preset value can be a fixed distance (for example, the default maximum distance or a typical device - to - device distance), or a value based on previous experience or default configuration.

[0060] The purpose of using preset values is to ensure that the entire system can still perform normal power consumption management in case of signal loss or unmeasurable situations, and to avoid system anomalies caused by the lack of signal data.

[0061] In the embodiments corresponding to steps A1 to A3, by switching the state of the wireless network device to the STA mode and collecting the wireless signal strength of other devices, the equivalent distance is calculated using the signal strength - distance conversion coefficient. This equivalent distance is used for subsequent power consumption control strategies to ensure that the device can intelligently adjust power consumption according to the relative positions and signal qualities between devices in different network environments. At the same time, to handle the situation where signals cannot be collected, the solution also considers using preset values to ensure the robustness of the system.

[0062] Step 102: According to the equivalent distance, match the target power consumption policy labels corresponding to multiple other wireless network devices; the target power consumption policy labels include a performance mode, an energy - saving mode, and a sleep mode;

[0063] According to the equivalent distance, the system will select a suitable power consumption policy for each device. The target power consumption policy labels include, but are not limited to, a performance mode, an energy - saving mode, and a sleep mode.

[0064] Performance Mode: This mode gives priority to ensuring the performance of the device and requires a relatively high power consumption to support a fast data transmission rate or low - latency requirements.

[0065] Energy - saving Mode: In this mode, the device will adjust its working state to reduce unnecessary energy consumption and give priority to ensuring energy efficiency and network stability.

[0066] Sleep Mode: The device enters the sleep state and will only be awakened when necessary to maintain the network connection, minimizing power consumption to the greatest extent.

[0067] Specifically, step 102 specifically includes steps 1021 to 1022:

[0068] Step 1021: Obtain the distance range corresponding to each power consumption policy label;

[0069] Before step 1021, a distance range is defined for each power consumption policy (such as the performance mode, energy - saving mode, sleep mode, etc.). These distance ranges are determined based on the relationship between the signal strength and the equivalent distance. Different power consumption policies will correspond to different distance ranges.

[0070] Step 1022: Use the power consumption policy label corresponding to the distance range in which the equivalent distance is located as the target power consumption policy label.

[0071] At this step, the system will compare the calculated equivalent distance with the distance ranges of each power consumption strategy. Specifically, the system will check which distance range the equivalent distance belongs to and match the corresponding power consumption strategy label for that distance range. In this way, the system can dynamically select the most suitable power consumption strategy label according to the actual equivalent distance between devices. This matching process enables the device to optimize its power consumption performance under different environmental conditions.

[0072] In the embodiments corresponding to steps 1021 to 1022, the equivalent distance is used to dynamically select the most suitable power consumption strategy label. By pre - defining the distance range of each power consumption strategy, the system can match the appropriate power consumption strategy according to the equivalent distance between devices. This method ensures that the device can adjust its power consumption according to the distance under different working states, thereby improving energy efficiency and optimizing the working performance of the device.

[0073] Step 103: Obtain the roaming priorities of multiple other wireless network devices;

[0074] The roaming priority refers to the priority strategy when switching (roaming) between devices.

[0075] Optionally, before step 103, the following steps B1 to B3 are further included:

[0076] Step B1: Obtain the total connection duration of all wireless network devices within a preset cycle duration;

[0077] For example, if the preset cycle is one day (24 hours), then within this day, the system will calculate the total duration of all wireless devices during this period.

[0078] Step B2: Obtain the connection duration, connection times, total data volume, average latency, and packet loss rate of each other wireless network device within the preset cycle duration;

[0079] The connection duration refers to the length of time each wireless device is connected to the network device. A long connection duration may indicate a high dependence of the device on the network.

[0080] The connection times refer to the number of times the device establishes a connection with the network device within the preset cycle. Multiple connection times may indicate poor connection stability of the device, or the device frequently changes the network, which may affect its priority.

[0081] The total data volume represents the total amount of data transmitted by the device during the connection. A large amount of data transmitted by the device may mean that the device has a high demand for network bandwidth and may require priority to ensure its connection quality.

[0082] The average latency is the average transmission latency of data packets during the communication between the device and the network device. A lower latency generally means better communication quality and the device may have a higher priority.

[0083] The packet loss rate represents the proportion of data loss during the connection of the device. A higher packet loss rate usually indicates poor network quality, and the device may need to adjust the connection or switch to a more stable network.

[0084] Step B3: Calculate the roaming priority according to the total connection duration, the connection duration, the number of connections, the total data volume, the average latency, and the packet loss rate.

[0085] This step calculates the roaming priority of each device based on all the above - collected metrics. When calculating the roaming priority, the system comprehensively considers the performance of the device in the network and obtains a comprehensive score to determine whether the device should maintain the current connection or be given priority to switch to other wireless network devices.

[0086] Specifically, step B3 specifically includes: substituting the total connection duration, the connection duration, the number of connections, the total data volume, the average latency, and the packet loss rate into a preset function to obtain the roaming priority output by the preset function;

[0087] The preset function is:

[0088]

[0089] Where, represents the roaming priority of the th other wireless network device, represents the total connection duration, represents the connection duration of the th other wireless network device, represents the number of connections of the th other wireless network device, represents the total data volume of the th other wireless network device, represents the average latency of the th other wireless network device, represents the packet loss rate of the th other wireless network device, represents the maximum value of the number of connections of all wireless network devices, represents the maximum value of the total data volume of all wireless network devices, , , , and represent preset weight coefficients.

[0090] By proportion calculation Obtain the proportion of the connection duration of the device in the total connection duration of all devices, which directly reflects the "activity" and stability of the device. This normalization process can eliminate the absolute differences between devices, making devices of different scales comparable.

[0091] By normalizing the connection times, the large differences in connection times between devices are avoided, enabling the unified comparison of the connection frequencies of each device. Here is the maximum value of the connection times of all devices, which can limit the connection times between 0 and 1, making the priority evaluation more balanced.

[0092] Similar to the connection times, the data volume is processed through normalization to avoid devices with a large data volume significantly affecting the priorities of other devices. Here is the maximum data volume transmitted by the device, and the normalized value is convenient for acting together with other parameters to ensure the balance of priorities.

[0093] The indicators such as the connection times, data volume, and duration of each device are normalized by dividing by their respective maximum values. The purpose of normalization is to transform devices of different scales into a unified measure (between 0 and 1), which can avoid the extreme values of a certain indicator having too much impact on the priority calculation, making the priority evaluation process more fair and balanced.

[0094] The principle of this preset function is based on the comprehensive evaluation of multi-dimensional performance in a wireless network, combining multiple key parameters such as connection duration, connection frequency, data volume, latency, and packet loss rate. Through normalization and weighting, the connection priorities can be flexibly adjusted according to the requirements of different scenarios, ensuring more efficient and stable connection of devices during the wireless roaming process.

[0095] In the embodiments corresponding to steps B1 to B3, by collecting and analyzing various connection indicators (such as connection duration, times, data volume, latency, etc.) of wireless network devices within a preset period, the roaming priority of each device is finally calculated. The roaming priority reflects the connection quality between the device and the network and the network requirements. The system will determine whether to switch the device or maintain the current network connection according to this priority to ensure the optimization of network performance. This method comprehensively considers multi-dimensional data and can control the roaming behavior of devices more intelligently and accurately, ensuring network stability and performance.

[0096] Step 104: Adjust the device power consumption corresponding to the other wireless network devices according to the target power consumption policy label and the roaming priority.

[0097] The system adjusts the power consumption of each wireless network device based on the target power policy tag and the device's roaming priority.

[0098] Specifically, step 104 includes steps 1041 to 1042:

[0099] Step 1041: Adjust the target power consumption policy label according to the roaming priority to obtain a current power consumption policy label;

[0100] The roaming priority reflects the importance and priority of a wireless device in the current network. A device's roaming priority may be affected by factors such as connection quality, data transmission requirements, latency, and packet loss rate. Based on these priorities, the device's power consumption policy needs to be adjusted accordingly. Based on the device's roaming priority, the system determines whether to adjust the target power consumption policy tag. By adjusting the target power consumption policy tag, the system calculates a current power consumption policy tag that adapts to the current network environment and device requirements. The current tag is determined based on the compatibility of the roaming priority with the target power consumption policy and reflects the device's current power management strategy.

[0101] Specifically, step 1041 includes steps C1 to C5:

[0102] Step C1: obtaining three gear shift value ranges corresponding to a preset gear shift strategy; the three gear shift value ranges include an upshift value range, a flat shift value range, and a downshift value range;

[0103] The preset shifting strategies include three different value ranges:

[0104] Upgrade value range: When the device's roaming priority is high and the system believes that the device needs to improve its performance to cope with higher data transmission needs or higher stability requirements, the system will select the upgrade strategy.

[0105] Flat value range: When the device's roaming priority is at a medium level, the system maintains the current power consumption policy and the device operates in a normal power consumption state.

[0106] Downshift value range: When the roaming priority of a device is low and the demand on the device is reduced, the system may choose to reduce the power consumption strategy to reduce energy consumption.

[0107] These three value ranges are used to determine the power consumption management direction of the device. The specific adjustment range will be determined by the roaming priority of the device.

[0108] Step C2: matching the adjustment value range of the roaming priority;

[0109] Roaming priority is a quantitative assessment of the current network status of a device. Based on the level of roaming priority, the system will match different gear adjustment value ranges. The system determines which gear adjustment value range the device should be in according to the roaming priority of the device. For example, if the roaming priority of the device is high, the system will classify the device into the upshift value range; if the device priority is low, it may enter the downshift value range.

[0110] Step C3: If the gear adjustment value range where the roaming priority is located is the upshift value range, then use the previous power consumption policy label as the current power consumption policy label; the previous power consumption policy label refers to the power consumption policy label before the target power consumption policy label; the sorting of power consumption policy labels from high to low is the performance mode, energy-saving mode, and sleep mode;

[0111] If the roaming priority of the device is in the upshift value range, it means that the network performance of the wireless network device is good, and the network environment quality can be improved by increasing the power consumption. At this time, the system will select the previous power consumption policy label as the current power consumption policy label.

[0112] The previous power consumption policy label refers to the label before the target power consumption policy label. In the sorting of power consumption policy labels, the performance mode has the highest priority, the energy-saving mode is the second, and the sleep mode has the lowest priority. Therefore, the previous power consumption policy label is the label with higher power consumption (for example, upgrading from the energy-saving mode to the performance mode).

[0113] Step C4: If the gear adjustment value range where the roaming priority is located is the flat gear value range, then use the target power consumption policy label as the current power consumption policy label;

[0114] If the roaming priority of the device is in the flat gear value range, it means that the device's requirements are in a normal state and there is no need to specifically increase or decrease the power consumption. At this time, the system will select the target power consumption policy label as the current power consumption policy label.

[0115] The target power consumption policy label is the preliminary power consumption policy label selected by the system in the previous steps, indicating the normal power consumption policy under the current requirements and network environment of the device.

[0116] Step C5: If the gear adjustment value range where the roaming priority is located is the downshift value range, then use the subsequent power consumption policy label as the current power consumption policy label; the subsequent power consumption policy label refers to the power consumption policy label after the target power consumption policy label.

[0117] If the roaming priority of the device is within the downshift value range, it indicates that the network performance of the wireless network device is poor. The system can choose to reduce the power consumption of the device, minimize the use of the wireless network device as much as possible, and avoid affecting the network quality. At this time, the system will select the subsequent power consumption policy label as the current power consumption policy label.

[0118] The subsequent power consumption policy label refers to the label located after the target power consumption policy label. The subsequent label represents a policy of lower power consumption (for example, downgrading from the performance mode to the energy-saving mode, or from the energy-saving mode to the sleep mode).

[0119] In the embodiments corresponding to steps C1 to C5, the power consumption policy of the device is dynamically adjusted through the roaming priority of the device, so as to achieve more intelligent power consumption management. According to the roaming priority, the system divides the device into three different shift value ranges (upshift, flat shift, downshift), and selects the appropriate power consumption policy label accordingly. In this way, the system can flexibly adjust the power consumption policy according to the current requirements, network status and roaming priority of the device, and achieve a balance between performance and energy efficiency.

[0120] Step 1042: Adjust the device power consumption corresponding to the other wireless network devices according to the power consumption parameters in the current power consumption policy label.

[0121] Each power consumption policy label will contain a set of parameters related to power consumption. These parameters determine the power consumption behavior of the device under a specific power consumption policy. Once the current power consumption policy label is determined, the system will adjust the actual power consumption of the wireless network device according to the power consumption parameters in the label. This adjustment process will consider the power requirements of the device in different states and dynamically adjust the behavior of the device according to the current power consumption policy label.

[0122] For example, if the current power consumption policy label is the performance mode, the device will increase its processing capacity and maintain a high communication frequency, which may result in higher power consumption.

[0123] If the current power consumption policy label is the energy-saving mode, the device will reduce the processing frequency and reduce communication activities, thereby reducing power consumption.

[0124] This process is dynamic, which means that the power consumption policy label can be adjusted at any time according to the real-time roaming priority, device connection quality and network requirements. The system decides whether to further adjust the power consumption policy by continuously monitoring the status of the device and the network environment.

[0125] In the embodiments corresponding to steps 1041 to 1042, the power consumption strategy of the device is determined by the roaming priority, thereby optimizing the power consumption management of the wireless network device. By dynamically adjusting the target power consumption strategy tags (such as performance mode, energy-saving mode, etc.), the system can intelligently control the power consumption of the device according to the current network state and requirements of the device, ensuring that while ensuring performance, energy consumption is minimized as much as possible.

[0126] In the embodiments corresponding to steps 101 to 104, the equivalent distance between the target wireless network device and other wireless network devices is obtained, and a suitable power consumption strategy is matched according to this distance. This approach can intelligently adjust the power consumption mode of each device according to the actual network topology and the distance difference between terminal devices. This distance-based power consumption control method makes power consumption management more flexible and efficient. The present invention also combines the roaming priority of the wireless network device to ensure that the power consumption strategy can be adjusted according to the priority when roaming between devices. Different devices may face different priorities when roaming, and the system will reasonably reduce unnecessary power consumption while ensuring the user experience according to the roaming priority of the device and the selected power consumption strategy. This innovation not only optimizes the power consumption control of the device but also improves the network connection quality of the user during the roaming process, avoiding signal instability problems caused by too high or too low power consumption. By comprehensively considering the above multiple factors, the present invention can adjust the power consumption of the wireless network device in real time, avoiding the limitations of traditional static power consumption control methods. Especially when the device is in a low-load, idle, or roaming state, it can intelligently switch to the low-power mode, significantly reducing the energy consumption of the wireless network device. Through this dynamic adjustment method, not only the energy efficiency of the device is improved, but also the service life of the device is extended, and the operation cost is reduced.

[0127] Such as Figure 2 The present invention provides a power consumption control device for a PON-based wireless network device. Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of a power consumption control device for a PON-based wireless network device provided by the present invention. Such as Figure 2 shown, a power consumption control device for a PON-based wireless network device includes:

[0128] A first acquisition unit 21, configured to acquire the equivalent distance between the target wireless network device and multiple other wireless network devices; the target wireless network device refers to the wireless network device currently connected by the terminal device;

[0129] A matching unit 22, configured to match the target power consumption strategy tags corresponding to the multiple other wireless network devices according to the equivalent distance; the target power consumption strategy tags include a performance mode, an energy-saving mode, and a sleep mode;

[0130] A second acquisition unit 23, configured to acquire the roaming priorities of multiple other wireless network devices;

[0131] An adjustment unit 24, configured to adjust the device power consumption corresponding to the other wireless network devices according to the target power consumption policy label and the roaming priorities.

[0132] A power consumption control device for a wireless network device based on PON provided by the present invention obtains the equivalent distance between a target wireless network device and other wireless network devices, and matches a suitable power consumption policy according to this distance. This approach can intelligently adjust the power consumption mode of each device according to the actual network topology and the distance difference between terminal devices. This distance-based power consumption control method makes power consumption management more flexible and efficient. The present invention also combines the roaming priorities of wireless network devices to ensure that the power consumption policy can be adjusted according to the priorities when roaming between devices. Different devices may face different priorities when roaming, and the system will reasonably reduce unnecessary power consumption while ensuring the user experience according to the roaming priorities of the devices and the selected power consumption policy. This innovation not only optimizes the power consumption control of the devices, but also improves the network connection quality of users during the roaming process, avoiding signal instability problems caused by too high or too low power consumption. By comprehensively considering the above multiple factors, the present invention can adjust the power consumption of wireless network devices in real time, avoiding the limitations of traditional static power consumption control methods. Especially when the device is in a low-load, idle or roaming state, it can intelligently switch to the low-power mode, significantly reducing the energy consumption of the wireless network device. Through this dynamic adjustment method, not only the energy efficiency of the device is improved, but also the service life of the device is extended and the operation cost is reduced.
