Problems solved by technology

[0011] The entire connection configuration process of existing smart home appliances is time-consuming and cumbersome. Terminals such as mobile phones need to disconnect the WiFi connection once, and some terminals (such as mobile phones produced by Apple) cannot switch WiFi through software, which makes the operation complicated and the user experience is poor.

Embodiment 1

[0042] This embodiment is a connection configuration method for smart home appliances designed by using the spurious mode of the WiFi module. figure 2 It is a schematic flowchart of a connection configuration method for a WiFi module of a smart home appliance in a stray mode according to an embodiment of the present invention. like figure 2 As shown, the connection configuration method includes the following steps:

[0043] S201, configure the WiFi module of the smart home appliance to be in a spurious mode, so as to monitor various wireless data packets. Wherein, the WiFi module of the smart home appliance may be configured to be in the promiscuous mode after it is powered on, or it may be preset that the WiFi module is in the promiscuous mode by default after being powered on.

[0044] S202. The terminal receives the SSID and connection password of the wireless router to be connected through the user interface of the loaded home appliance application program. For example,...

Embodiment 2

[0055] This embodiment is a combined connection configuration method designed using the stray mode and soft AP mode of the WiFi module. Figure 4 It shows a flow diagram of a connection configuration method in which the WiFi module is configured to directly enter the stray mode after being powered on, and enter the soft AP mode to wait when the stray mode times out, according to an embodiment of the present invention. like Figure 4 As shown, the connection configuration method includes the following steps:

[0056] S401, the WiFi module of the smart home appliance is configured to enter the stray mode directly after power-on.

[0057] S402, the WiFi module of the smart home appliance detects whether a specific multicast or broadcast message is obtained in the stray mode within a predetermined period of time; if no specific multicast or broadcast message is obtained, the WiFi module switches from the stray mode to the soft AP mode wait. Optionally, the WiFi module detects w...

Embodiment 3

[0066] In order to further simplify the connection configuration process of smart home appliances, the present invention also provides a combined connection configuration method designed using the STA mode, stray mode and soft AP mode of the WiFi module. Figure 5 It shows that according to an embodiment of the present invention, when the WiFi module is configured to enter the STA mode directly after power-on, the connection in the STA mode is unsuccessful before jumping to the stray mode, and the stray mode times out, and enters the connection configuration of the soft AP mode to wait Schematic diagram of the method flow. like Figure 5 As shown, the connection configuration method includes the following steps:

[0067] S501, if the WiFi module of the smart home appliance has been configured before, it will directly enter the STA mode after power-on, and connect to the wireless router based on the stored wireless router SSID and connection password in the STA mode.

Abstract

The invention discloses a connection configuration method for an intelligent household appliance. The method includes the steps that a WiFi module of the intelligent household appliance is configured to be in a stray mode so as to monitor various wireless data packets; when the WiFi module, in the stray mode, of the intelligent household appliance monitors a specific multicast or broadcast message coming from a terminal and carrying a wireless router SSID and a connection password, the specific multicast or broadcast message is analyzed, and a corresponding wireless router is automatically connected according to the analyzed router SSID and the analyzed connection password. By the adoption of the method and system, the connection configuration process of the intelligent household appliance can be simple, reliable and good in user experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication networks, and more specifically, to a connection configuration method and system for smart home appliances. Background technique [0002] Using WiFi as the communication medium of current smart home appliances is the current development trend, and WiFi needs to be connected and configured for the WiFi module from power-on to normal operation. [0003] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the connection configuration process based on the soft AP mode of smart home appliances in the existing smart home system. After the WiFi module of the smart home appliance is powered on, it is in the soft AP (SOFT AP) mode. The configuration process for the terminal to connect the smart home appliance to the wireless router is as follows: figure 1 shown, including: [0004] S101, the terminal receives the input AP connection password through the user interface of the home appliance appl...
