Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a method for communication between a wearable device and a mobile terminal. The method includes the wearable device determines whether a first communications link with the mobile terminal is able to be established, when yes, the wearable device receives a notification message sent by the mobile terminal by the first communications link, when not, the wearable device determines whether a second communications link with the mobile terminal is able to be established, when yes, the wearable device receives a notification message sent by the mobile terminal by the second communications link, when not, the wearable device connects to a network server, and receives a notification message sent by the mobile terminal by the network server.
Claims16
A method for communication between a wearable device and a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
- determining, by the wearable device, whether the wearable device is able to establish a first communications link with the mobile terminal using a first communications protocol;
- receiving, by the wearable device using the first communications link, a first notification message from the mobile terminal when the wearable device establishes the first communications link with the mobile terminal using the first communications protocol;
- displaying, by the wearable device, the first notification message when the wearable device establishes the first communications link with the mobile terminal using the first communications protocol;
- determining, by the wearable device, whether the wearable device can establish a second communications link with the mobile terminal using a second communications protocol when the wearable device is unable to establish the first communications link with the mobile terminal using the first communications protocol;
- receiving, by the wearable device using the second communications link, the first notification message from the mobile terminal when the wearable device establishes the second communications link with the mobile terminal using the second communications protocol;
- and
- when the wearable device is unable to establish the second communications link with the mobile terminal using the second communications protocol:
- connecting, by the wearable device, to a network server using the second communications protocol;
- and
- receiving, using the network server, the first notification message from the mobile terminal by either:
- obtaining, from the network server by the wearable device, a token of the mobile terminal;
- and
- receiving, using the token, the first notification message from a notification message server configured to send notification information to the mobile terminal;
- or
- receiving, from the network server by the wearable device, internet protocol (IP) connection information of the mobile terminal;
- establishing, by the wearable device, an IP connection to the mobile terminal according to the IP connection information of the mobile terminal;
- and
- receiving, using the IP connection, notification information from the mobile terminal.

- determine whether the wearable device can establish a second communications link with the mobile terminal using a second communications protocol when the wearable device cannot establish the first communications link with the mobile terminal using the first communications protocol;
- receive, using the second communications link, the first notification message from the mobile terminal when the wearable device establishes the second communications link with the mobile terminal using the second communications protocol;
- and
- when the wearable device cannot establish the second communications link with the mobile terminal using the second communications protocol:
- connect to a network server using the second communications protocol;
- and
- receive the first notification message using the network server by either:
- obtaining, from the network server by the wearable device, a token of the mobile terminal;
- and
- receiving, using the token, the first notification message from a notification message server configured to send notification information to the mobile terminal;
- or
- receiving, from the network server by the wearable device, internet protocol (IP) connection information of the mobile terminal;
- establishing, by the wearable device, an IP connection to the mobile terminal according to the IP connection information of the mobile terminal;
- and
- receiving, using the IP connection, notification information from the mobile terminal.
