Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a communication control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In one embodiment, the communication control method includes the following steps:
s10: acquiring an input signal sent by electronic equipment;
it can be understood that the main body of the implementation of the present embodiment is an active capacitive pen. The electronic device refers to a device having a touch screen interacting with an active capacitive pen, such as a smart phone and a tablet computer, which is not limited in this embodiment.
It should be noted that, in the prior art, the active capacitive pen only transmits signals to the electronic device at a fixed communication frequency, and when the electronic device is interfered due to charging or environmental factors, the active capacitive pen cannot know whether the electronic device is interfered, and still transmits signals to the electronic device at the fixed communication frequency, but at this time, the electronic device cannot accurately receive the signals transmitted by the active capacitive pen, so that the writing is broken, and even the writing cannot be performed. In the embodiment, the active capacitive pen actively acquires the input signal from the electronic equipment, and the communication frequency is adjusted according to the input signal, so that the adjusted communication frequency transmits a signal to the electronic equipment, and the influence of an interference signal on the electronic equipment is avoided.
In an embodiment, when a plurality of active capacitive pens communicate with an electronic device at the same time, the active capacitive pens and the electronic device need to be paired, and only the successfully paired active capacitive pens can acquire the input signal from the electronic device, so that the accuracy of signal transmission and the efficiency of communication are improved.
Specifically, when the active capacitive pen monitors a beacon sent by the electronic device, a pairing request instruction is sent to the electronic device; receiving a return instruction of the electronic equipment, and judging whether a confirmation character exists in the return instruction; and when the confirmation character exists in the return instruction, acquiring an input signal sent by the electronic equipment.
S20: judging whether an interference signal exists in the input signal or not;
in a specific implementation, when the electronic device is in a low power state, a charging state, or under the influence of an environment (such as a microwave oven), the input signal transmitted by the electronic device to the active capacitive stylus includes both a communication signal and an interference signal.
In one embodiment, since the frequency of the interference signal is usually high, whether the interference signal exists can be determined according to the frequency of each signal in the input signal. Specifically, the frequency of each signal in the input signal is acquired; judging whether the frequency exceeding the preset communication frequency range exists in the frequencies of the signals or not; and when the frequency exceeding the preset communication frequency range exists, judging that an interference signal exists in the input signal.
The preset communication frequency range is a preset communication frequency range in the active capacitance pen, and the preset communication frequency range is preferably 15KHz-40 KHz.
It should be understood that when the frequency of a certain signal in the input signal is not within the preset communication frequency range, the signal may be determined as an interference signal, and then the presence of the interference signal in the input signal may be determined, and when the frequencies of all the signals in the input signal are within the preset communication frequency range, the absence of the interference signal in the input signal may be determined.
S30: when the interference signal exists in the input signal, obtaining a first communication frequency according to the input signal;
it should be noted that the first communication frequency refers to a frequency at which the electronic device sends an input signal to the active capacitance pen, and when an interference signal exists in the input signal, the communication frequency between the electronic device and the active capacitance pen needs to be adjusted, so that the first communication frequency needs to be obtained first.
It should be understood that the communication frequency range of the electronic device during normal operation is usually 1KHz-1MHz, therefore, the first communication frequency may be 1KHz-1MHz, and the interference signal is usually a higher frequency signal, which may be 1MHz, 200KHz or 400KHz, and the like, and is liable to generate co-channel interference to the electronic device.
S40: and adjusting the first communication frequency to a second communication frequency in a preset communication frequency range, and communicating with the electronic equipment at the second communication frequency.
It should be understood that, as described above, the preset communication frequency range is a preset communication frequency range in the active capacitance pen, and the preset communication frequency range is preferably 15KHz to 40 KHz.
In specific implementation, when an interference signal exists in an input signal, the active capacitance pen adjusts the communication frequency to a second communication frequency in the range of 15KHz to 40KHz, and transmits the signal to the electronic equipment at the second communication frequency, so that the frequency of the interference signal can be effectively avoided, and the accuracy of receiving the transmitted signal by the electronic equipment is further ensured.
In one embodiment, the active capacitive stylus communicates with the electronic device based on direct sequence spread spectrum modulation. Specifically, when the active capacitance pen transmits a signal, the active capacitance pen modulates the transmitted signal with a spreading code sequence with a high code rate, so as to spread the frequency spectrum of the signal and obtain a spread signal, and the electronic device despreads the spread signal with the same spreading code sequence as the active capacitance pen, so as to restore the original transmitted signal. The anti-interference capability of the active capacitance pen can be effectively improved by applying direct sequence spread spectrum modulation in the active capacitance pen.
In the embodiment, an input signal sent by the electronic equipment is acquired through the active capacitance pen; judging whether an interference signal exists in the input signal or not; when an interference signal exists in the input signal, obtaining a first communication frequency according to the input signal; and adjusting the first communication frequency to a second communication frequency in a preset communication frequency range, and communicating with the electronic equipment at the second communication frequency. The active capacitive pen is not only used for transmitting signals to the electronic equipment, but also used for carrying out two-way communication with the electronic equipment, and the active capacitive pen is used for transmitting signals to the electronic equipment by acquiring input signals sent by the electronic equipment and adjusting communication frequency when interference signals exist in the input signals, so that the influence of the interference signals on the electronic equipment for receiving the transmitted signals is avoided, the purpose of still ensuring the writing stability when the active capacitive pen is interfered in the communication process with the electronic equipment is achieved, and the anti-interference capability of the active capacitive pen is improved.
