Abstract
The present disclosure describes methods, devices, and systems for signal strength measurement. An example method includes: broadcasting, by a first relay device, a first message, wherein the first message is used by a first remote device to discover the first relay device; establishing, by the first relay device, a connection to the first remote device; and sending, by the first relay device, a second message, wherein the second message is used by the first remote device to measure signal strength of a link between the first remote device and the first relay device.
Claims6
A signal strength measurement method, comprising:
- broadcasting, by a first relay device, a first message, wherein the first message is used by a first remote device to discover the first relay device;
- establishing, by the first relay device, a connection to the first remote device;
- sending, by the first relay device, a second message, wherein the second message is used by the first remote device to measure signal strength of a link between the first remote device and the first relay device, wherein the first message is different from the second message;
- determining, by the first relay device, that the first relay device reaches an upper access limit;
- and
- in response to determining that the first relay device reaches the upper access limit, performing the following operations:
- stopping, by the first relay device, sending the first message while continuing to send the second message.
A signal strength measurement method, comprising:
- receiving, by a relay device, a first message sent by a first remote device, wherein the first message requests the relay device to provide a relay service;
- sending, by the relay device, a second message, wherein the second message is used by the first remote device to discover the relay device;
- establishing, by the relay device, a connection to the first remote device;
- receiving, by the relay device, a third message sent by the first remote device, wherein the third message requests the relay device to provide a measurement service;
- sending a fourth message to the first remote device, wherein the fourth message is used by the first remote device to measure signal strength of a link between the first remote device and the relay device, wherein the first message is different from the third message;
- determining, by the relay device, that the relay device reaches an upper access limit;
- and
- in response to determining that the relay device reaches the upper access limit, performing the following operations:
- stopping, by the relay device, sending the second message while continuing to send the fourth message.
A signal strength measurement method, comprising:
- sending, by a first remote device, a first message to a relay device, wherein the first message requests the relay device to provide a relay service;
- receiving, by the first remote device, a second message sent by the relay device, wherein the second message is used by the first remote device to discover the relay device;
- establishing, by the first remote device, a connection to the relay device;
- sending, by the first remote device, a third message to the relay device, wherein the third message requests the relay device to provide a measurement service;
- receiving, by the first remote device, a fourth message, wherein the fourth message is used by the first remote device to measure signal strength of a link between the first remote device and the relay device, the second message is different from the fourth message, the fourth message carries an identifier of the relay device, and the second message is stopped after the relay device reaches an upper access limit.
