Wi-Fi access point discovery and system of selection based on ZigBee that the present invention proposes, its flow process specifically comprises the steps: as shown in Figure 2
Step 1: the local AP tabulation of initialization (APList) starts subsequently ZigBee interface receive data and starts two timer Timer-u and Timer-s.Described initialization is sets up APList, and APlist is the tabulation of the AP record (APRec) of all preservations, the following APRec{APInfo of the form of APRec, and count, lifetime}, wherein, lifetime represents the life span of this APRec; Count is illustrated in the number of times that repeats to receive identical AP information in the transmission cycle, and the described transmission cycle refers to the timeout interval of timer Timer-s; APInfo refers to connect the necessary information of AP, its form is: APInfo:{wlan_ssid, wlan_name, wlan_type, signal_strength, ipv4_type, wlan_security, wlan_hidden, connecting_time}, wherein, wlan_ssid represents the service set (Service Set Identification) of wireless network; Wlan_name represents the title of wireless network; Wlan_type represents the type of wireless network; Signal_strength represents wireless network signal strength; Wlan_security represents the fail safe setting of wireless network; Whether the wlan_hidden marked network is hidden; Connecting_time represents the interconnection network required time.The validity that timer Timer-u is used for being updated periodically the AP tabulation and checks the AP record, according to experiment analysis results, its cycle timeout interval is made as 1s, timer Timer-s is used for the local AP information of preserving of periodically broadcasting to realize sharing of AP information, according to experiment analysis results, its timeout interval is made as 3s.
Step 2: judge whether the ZigBee interface receives data, if turn step 3; If not, turn step 4.
Step 3: after the ZigBee interface is received data, from the packet that receives, extract AP information, be designated as RecAP, scanning of home APList, to each APRec, whether the wlan_ssid value of checking its APInfo identical with RecAP, if identical, then count value and the lifetime with this APRec resets to 0.If there be not the wlan_ssid value APRec identical with RecAP, then a newly-built APRec is RecAP with its APInfo assignment, and count value and lifetime are initially 0.
Step 5: when timer Timer-u is overtime, upgrade the AP tabulation, travel through whole renewal AP tabulation, check the lifetime value of each APRec, if surpass specific threshold, then delete this APRec, thereby guarantee reliability and the validity of AP information.According to experiment analysis results, described specific threshold is made as 6.
The reliability of AP information and validity are the cores of whole algorithm, and step 2 and step 3 are by dynamically upgrading the AP tabulation and detecting the AP effectiveness of information to guarantee validity and the reliability of AP information.The below guarantees that to the inventive method validity and the reliability of AP information are described further:
The reliability of AP information and validity refer to that equipment can utilize this AP information successfully to be connected to corresponding AP.Method of the present invention mainly guarantees reliability and the validity of AP information from two aspects: at first, any AP information of receiving for equipment, all can in the zone, find an equipment that is connected to this AP---this is to be determined by the shared mechanism of AP information, any AP information all is to be produced by the equipment that is connected at first this AP, then come in whole zone, to propagate by other device forwards, thereby guaranteed the reliability of AP information; On the other hand, reach the timely AP information that lost efficacy of deleting of the periodic AP of detection tabulation by lifetime life cycle that records AP information, thereby guarantee the validity of AP information.
Step 7: when timer Timer-s is overtime, travel through whole AP tabulation, the selectivity AP information broadcasting mechanism that proposes according to the present invention is chosen the AP information exchange that satisfies condition and is crossed the ZigBee interface and broadcast away shared with effective realization AP information.
Be effectively to realize that AP information sharing, the present invention propose selectivity AP information broadcasting mechanism, the expense of further reduction system reduces power consumption when guaranteeing AP diffusion of information concentration.Its concrete steps are as follows: Timer-s is overtime when timer, traversal AP tabulation, choose signal strength signal intensity signal_strength be not less than 1 and count value less than 3 AP information transmission.Selectivity AP information broadcasting mechanism is carried out certain filtration to local AP information, thereby reduces the traffic volume of message, reduces the consumption of system.The following describes this filtration of adopting selectivity AP information broadcasting mechanism of the present invention to the impact of AP diffusion of information: 1) filter by signal strength signal intensity, the AP information that a strength of transmitted signals is larger can not produce larger impact to the concentration of AP information.According to AP selection strategy of the present invention, equipment also can the lower AP of automatic fitration signal strength signal intensity when connecting AP, and from this angle, the AP information that signal is lower is useless to equipment, can be considered redundant information, thereby can be just with its filtration when sending.2) filter by the count value, the count value representation repeats to receive the number of times of certain bar AP information in transmission cycle, reflect to a certain extent the diffusion of this AP information in the zone.When the count value surpassed certain limit, the embodiment of the invention was made as 3, can think that this information has reached certain concentration, so that the node in the zone can both be received the information of this AP, thereby does not need to send this AP information again.In addition, it is 0 that the count value initially was reset in each transmission cycle, thereby the variation that node distributes in motion that can the dynamically adapting node and the zone has further guaranteed the validity of AP information.
Step 9: when equipment has network connecting request, at first check in the local AP tabulation whether have the AP record, if having, the AP selection strategy that then proposes according to the present invention selects current best AP to connect; If nothing is then opened the Wi-Fi interface, start Wi-Fi scanning and be connected to AP.
The AP selection strategy that the present invention proposes is intended to connect to improve the experience that the user accesses internet by the current best AP of AP Information Selection that preserve this locality, specifically assesses the performance of AP by the P value:
P=SS/CT
Wherein SS represents the signal strength signal intensity of AP, its value is the value of expression wireless network signal strength signal_strength among the APInfo in the AP record, CT represents to connect the required time of AP, finger is from initiating connection request to being connected to the time of specifying AP, and its value is the value of expression expression interconnection network required time connecting_time among the APInfo in the AP record.When equipment has connection request, by traversal AP tabulation, calculate the P value of each AP record, select the maximum AP of P value to connect.
Compare common Wi-Fi mode with system of selection in the improvement of power consumption and aspect of performance below in conjunction with accompanying drawing with the Wi-Fi access point discovery based on ZigBee that example explanation the present invention proposes, described common Wi-Fi mode refers to that the Wi-Fi scan function that utilizes operating system to carry scans and connection AP.

Fig. 4, Fig. 5 has demonstrated the results of performance analysis that AP selects in the inventive method, experiment scene is as follows: choose 1 N810 of Nokia, from the available AP that preserve this locality, choose current best AP and connection according to AP selection strategy of the present invention, record the actual signal intensity of this AP and connect hours and the signal strength signal intensity of connect hours and local AP record, record simultaneously signal strength signal intensity and the maximum of connect hours and the minimum value of local AP record.Abscissa all represents experiment number among Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, is different location duplicate test 12 times in the present embodiment.Fig. 4 is the contrast of connect hours, can find out, the connect hours of actual AP connect hours with the local best AP that preserves almost do not have difference, and the connect hours of best AP approaches short connection time substantially.Fig. 5 is the contrast of signal strength signal intensity, can find out, the actual AP signal strength signal intensity that obtains with local preserve the intensity of current best AP signal also without significant difference, and also approach very much local maximum AP signal strength signal intensity of preserving, this shows the validity of the AP information of selecting among the present invention.
Fig. 6 is the experiment analysis results of the performance comparison of selectivity AP information broadcasting strategy in the inventive method and common inundation strategy.Experiment scene is as follows: in a zone that is deployed with 8 AP, two N810 of Nokia adopt respectively selectivity AP broadcast strategy and the local AP information of preserving of inundation strategy broadcasting in the inventive method, the transmission cycle is made as 3s, records the power consumption in one minute and sends data volume.Fig. 6 is the transmission data volume contrast of two kinds of strategies, can find out, along with increasing of node on every side, the AP information of receiving increases, and it is in rising trend to send data volume, and the transmission data volume of two kinds of forwarding strategies big difference too not; Subsequently, node receive AP information reach capacity gradually, namely obtain the information of all 8 AP in the embodiment of the invention, at this moment, the inundation strategy is because it transmits the AP information that all are received, so after the information that reaches is saturated, sends data volume and do not change, remain maximum; And the selectivity AP broadcast strategy in the inventive method is owing to necessarily filter AP information, and the data volume of transmission descends gradually, tends towards stability equally at last.As seen from Figure 6, than inundation mechanism, the selectivity AP information broadcasting strategy in the inventive method can greatly reduce the transmission data volume, reduces link consumption.
