[0050] The IP service 204 may include the Internet, an intranet, an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), or other IP services, etc.

[0051] Although the above has been introduced by taking the LTE system as an example, those skilled in the art should be aware that this application is not only applicable to the LTE system, but also applicable to other wireless communication systems, such as GSM, CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, and future new network systems (such as 5G), etc., which are not limited herein.

[0052] The following will specifically introduce each module of the terminal 30 in combination with Figure 3 : The effective duration calculation module 31 can be used to obtain a first effective duration that meets the preset wireless communication signal strength condition and a second effective duration that meets the preset WIFI signal strength condition according to the wireless communication signal strength and the WIFI signal strength of the terminal 30.

[0056] The wireless communication broadcast module 35 can be used to monitor and analyze the relevant information of the above four modules and perform information exchange of WIFI-related information.

[0057] Based on the above mobile terminal hardware structure and communication network system, each embodiment of the present application is proposed.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 4 , which is a schematic flowchart of the WIFI connection method provided by the first embodiment of the present application. Please also refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the WIFI connection method can be applied between the first terminal 51 and at least one second terminal 52 (only one is shown in the figure), and the WIFI connection method includes the following steps: Step S21, establish a wireless communication connection between the first terminal 51 and the second terminal 52.

[0059] Among them, the above wireless communication can use various communication standards, protocols and technologies, including but not limited to Bluetooth, Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), Enhanced Data GSM Environment (EDGE), wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA), Code division access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), other protocols for mail, instant messaging and short messages, and any other suitable communication protocols, and may even include those protocols that have not been developed yet.

[0060] Preferably, the Bluetooth technology used in the wireless communication of the present application is Bluetooth Low Energy (also known as Bluetooth LE, BLE, old trademark Bluetooth Smart), also known as low-power Bluetooth, which is a personal area network technology designed and sold by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group. Compared with classic Bluetooth, low-power Bluetooth aims to significantly reduce power consumption and cost while maintaining the same communication range, thereby reducing the power consumption of the terminal connecting to the WIFI hotspot.

[0061] Step S42, the second terminal 52 sends signal strength data to the first terminal 51 through wireless communication.

[0062] Among them, the signal strength data includes the signal strength of wireless communication within a preset time range and the WIFI signal strength detected by the second terminal 52 within the preset time range.

[0063] In an embodiment, the signal strength data satisfying the preset WIFI connection condition includes: According to the signal strength of wireless communication and the WIFI signal strength, a first effective duration satisfying the preset wireless communication signal strength condition and a second effective duration satisfying the preset WIFI signal strength condition are obtained; if both the first effective duration and the second effective duration are not less than the preset duration threshold, it is determined that the signal strength data satisfies the preset WIFI connection condition.

[0064] Specifically, within a certain duration range, the signal strength of wireless communication at the current moment and the WIFI signal strength are obtained at a fixed frequency, and the values not less than the wireless communication signal strength threshold and the WIFI signal strength threshold are respectively screened out, so as to obtain a first effective duration satisfying the preset wireless communication signal strength condition and a second effective duration satisfying the preset WIFI signal strength condition.

[0065] Step S43, when the first terminal 51 determines that the signal strength data satisfies the preset WIFI connection condition, the WIFI connection parameters are sent to the second terminal 52.

[0066] Specifically, the WIFI connection parameters include the WIFI password. In an embodiment, the WIFI connection parameters may also but are not limited to include the WIFI network identifier (Service Set Identifier, SSID).

[0067] Step S43, the second terminal 52 receives the WIFI connection parameters sent by the first terminal 51 and connects to the corresponding WIFI hotspot through the WIFI connection parameters.

[0068] Specifically, when the WIFI connection parameters do not include the WIFI network identifier, the second terminal 52 needs to scan the WIFI list and pair the WIFI password with the WIFI network identifiers in the WIFI list one by one until both the WIFI network identifier and the WIFI password match to connect to the corresponding WIFI hotspot.

[0069] In an embodiment of the present application, after the WIFI connection parameters are sent to the second terminal 52, the second terminal 52 may but is not limited to directly connecting to the corresponding WIFI hotspot using the WIFI connection parameters, so as to connect to the WIFI hotspot more conveniently.

[0070] Furthermore, the WIFI connection method further includes: Receive the screen status information and the WIFI switch status information sent by the second terminal 52 through wireless communication; if the screen status information and the WIFI switch status information do not meet the preset WIFI connection conditions, stop sending the WIFI connection parameters to the second terminal 52.

[0071] It can be understood that when the screen of the second terminal is in the lit state and the WIFI switch is in the on state, it is determined that the preset WIFI connection conditions are met, and the second terminal can connect to the WIFI hotspot normally.

[0072] In this embodiment, the above wireless communication connection is a Bluetooth connection.

[0073] Among them, the above wireless communication can use various communication standards, protocols and technologies, including but not limited to Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), Enhanced Data GSM Environment (EDGE), wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA), Code division access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), other protocols for email, instant messaging and short messages, and any other suitable communication protocols, and may even include those protocols that have not been developed yet.
