NETWORK HANDOVER METHOD, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND ACCESS POINT DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18341839 Titled 'NETWORK HANDOVER METHOD, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND ACCESS POINT DEVICE'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a technology related to network handover. It explains that a terminal device can detect a network parameter of a first Wi-Fi network and initiate scanning when certain conditions are met. If the terminal device finds a second Wi-Fi network and is associated with it, it obtains authentication information for that network. The terminal device then accesses the second Wi-Fi network, which reuses a protocol stack link established with the first Wi-Fi network for communication.
Original Abstract Submitted
The technology of this application relates to a network handover method, a terminal device, and an access point device. In an example embodiment, the terminal device detects a network parameter of a first Wi-Fi network for connecting the terminal device to the access point device, the terminal device initiates scanning when the network parameter meets a preset condition, and the terminal device obtains authentication information of a second Wi-Fi network if the terminal device obtains the second Wi-Fi network of the access point device through scanning and the terminal device is associated with the second Wi-Fi network, where service set identifiers SSIDs of the second Wi-Fi network and the first Wi-Fi network are different. The terminal device accesses the second Wi-Fi network, and the second Wi-Fi network reuses an established protocol stack link between the terminal device and the first Wi-Fi network for communication.
