Embodiment
Core of the present invention provides based on the dual mode communication method of Wi-Fi and WiMax and communication equipment, when receiving Wi-Fi AP (Access Point, access point) after the Wi-Fi information of Fa Songing, Wi-Fi information is adapted for WiMax information, and the WiMax information after the transmission conversion; After receiving WiMax information, WiMax information is adapted for Wi-Fi information, and the Wi-Fi information after the transmission conversion is to AP.
In order to make those skilled in the art person understand the present invention program better, and above-mentioned purpose of the present invention, feature and advantage can be become apparent more, the present invention is further detailed explanation below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
The Wi-Fi network is simpler, but coverage is less, and most of Wi-Fi networks are not controlled by operator, and the operation ability is relatively poor and the scope of business is limited; Comparatively speaking, the WiMax network is convenient to operation and management, and the wide coverage and the scope of business are extensive.But, to compare with the Wi-Fi network, the WiMax network bandwidth is less relatively, and terminal is limited, owing to bandwidth constraints, makes that the access customer volume is less when carrying out broadband services.Based on the These characteristics of two networks, the embodiment of the invention is built up the dual-mode base station that can be suitable for Wi-Fi network and WiMax network with the BS of WiMax, has merged the advantage of two networks thus, and this dual-mode base station wide coverage can be unified the networking management.In the coverage of two networks, user terminal can select to insert above-mentioned any one network by this dual-mode base station.
A kind of networking structure schematic diagram of using dual mode communication method embodiment of the present invention as shown in Figure 1.Among Fig. 1; ASN-GW (Access Service Network Gateway with the WiMax network; wireless access gateway) communication is dual-mode base station; dual-mode base station has merged BS (the Base Station of WiMax network; the base station) and the AP of Wi-Fi network, can communicate by letter with ASN-GW, in dual-mode base station, add the AP adaptation module in order to make Wi-Fi AP; be used for information transmitted between adaptive ASN-GW and the Wi-Fi AP, comprise adaptive and business datum adaptive of signaling message.From the ASN-GW side, the AP adaptation module is equivalent to the BS of a WiMAX, and the WiMAX standard interface is all followed in its all communications; Wi-Fi AP still provides independently Wi-Fi the technology of eating dishes without rice or wine downwards, upwards provides API (Application ProgrammingInterface, application programming interface) to call or adjust back the processing capacity of AP adaptation module for the AP adaptation module.Wherein, BS directly links to each other with ASN-GW, when the WiMax terminal inserts, communicates by letter with ASN-GW by BS; Wi-Fi AP links to each other with ASN-GW by the AP adaptation module, when the Wi-Fi terminal inserts, communicates by letter with ASN-GW by the AP adaptation module.
The AP adaptation module can be subdivided into signaling capability module and business function module, Wi-Fi AP receives the type of identifying information after the information, if signaling message then sends to the signaling capability resume module,, business datum handles if then sending to business function module.
In conjunction with schematic network structure shown in Figure 1, the present invention is based on Wi-Fi and WiMax dual mode communication method the first embodiment flow process as shown in Figure 2, this embodiment show Wi-Fi AP by the AP adaptation module to the process of ASN-GW signaling message transmission:
Step 201: send idle message by air interface to Wi-Fi AP when terminal inserts.
Step 202:Wi-Fi AP sends this idle message to the AP adaptation module.
Step 203: identifying this information of eating dishes without rice or wine according to the type identification of the information of eating dishes without rice or wine is the Wi-Fi signaling message.
Step 204: obtain the terminal MAC Address of carrying in the Wi-Fi signaling message and the sign of Wi-Fi AP.
Step 205: search the end message storehouse of setting up in advance according to the terminal MAC Address, obtain the state information of terminal.
According to terminal MAC Address index end message storehouse,, then can directly obtain the state information of terminal when in the end message storehouse, finding this terminal MAC Address; When in the end message storehouse, not finding this MAC Address, then set up corresponding state information and preservation for this MAC Address.And, the sign of the Wi-Fi AP that carries in the Wi-Fi signaling message also is kept in this end message storehouse, so that can signaling message be sent to corresponding Wi-Fi AP according to the sign of this Wi-Fi AP during downlink communication.
Step 206: according to the state information of terminal MAC Address and terminal, according to WiMax signaling format structure WiMax signaling message.
Step 207: the WiMax signaling message directly is transferred to ASN-GW.
