Solution Overview
Problem
Existing conference functions in mobile communication networks face limitations in safety, privacy, and fluency, and lack accurate data transmission control.
Innovation Solution
A data transmission control method and apparatus that utilizes Neighbor Awareness Network (NAN) devices to establish a local area network conference group, where identities of conference members are acquired, communication levels are determined based on member identities, and data transmission is managed according to corresponding relations between transmission levels and communication levels, enhancing safety, privacy, and accuracy of data transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If mobile communication network is used for conference function, then communication coverage is achieved, but safety and privacy are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the conference communication function from the mobile communication network by establishing a standalone NAN conference group. Conference members directly exchange data through NAN devices without routing through the mobile network, thereby removing the network dependency that compromises safety and privacy while maintaining communication capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces NAN devices as intermediaries between conference members. These NAN devices facilitate direct peer-to-peer communication within the conference group, acting as trusted mediators that enable secure data exchange without requiring mobile network infrastructure, thus improving safety and privacy.
2Measurement precision
If mobile communication network is used for conference function, then connectivity is established, but data transmission control accuracy is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements local quality by establishing a hierarchical communication level structure within the NAN conference group. Different conference members are assigned different communication levels (first, second, third levels) that correspond to different data transmission rights and privileges. This localized differentiation enables precise control over which members can access specific data resources, achieving accurate data transmission control while maintaining operational flexibility through the corresponding relation between communication levels and data transmission levels.
3Reliability
If NAN function is used for local area network conference, then safety and privacy are improved, but data transmission control accuracy needs enhancement
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by establishing a dynamic corresponding relation between communication levels and data transmission levels. The system can flexibly adjust which data resources are transmitted to which conference members based on their communication levels. This dynamic configuration enables precise control over data transmission accuracy while maintaining the safety and privacy benefits of the NAN framework, as the corresponding relation can be adapted to different conference scenarios.

AI summary
Disclosed are a data transmission control method and related apparatus. The method includes: acquiring identities of multiple conference members required to attend a conference when a local area network conference request is detected, wherein the conference members correspond to multiple NAN devices which include the first NAN device and at least one second NAN device; determining communication levels of the conference members based on the identities of the conference members, and establishing a corresponding relation between transmission levels of data resources and the communication levels of the conference members; creating a first NAN conference group, and inviting the at least one second NAN device to join the first NAN conference group; and performing data transmission in the first NAN conference group based on the corresponding relation. The embodiments of the present disclosure are beneficial for improving the security and stability of an electronic device executing a conference function.
