Abstract

The present application discloses a WebRTC communication method. The method includes acquiring first device information of a calling terminal device and second device information of a called terminal device; determining, based on the first device information and the second device information, whether there is nonessential information with respect to establishing a connection; and in response to determining that there is the nonessential information, establishing a WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded and implementing communications between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device. According to the technical solution disclosed in the present application, a network bandwidth and performance consumption of a signaling server can be reduced by over 30%, without affecting a success rate of establishing the WebRTC connection between the two terminal devices.

Dependent claims

A method of implementing Web real-time communications (WebRTC), comprising:

acquiring first device information of a calling terminal device and second device information of a called terminal device;
determining, based on the first device information and the second device information, whether there is nonessential information with respect to establishing a WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device;
in response to determining that there is the nonessential information, excluding the nonessential information from being collected and transmitted by the calling terminal device and the called terminal device to a signaling server, wherein the nonessential information comprises Internet connectivity establishment (ICE) candidates of a host type;
establishing the WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded, wherein the establishing the WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded comprises establishing the WebRTC connection using ICE candidates of a non-host type;
and
implementing WebRTC communications between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device.

3 more elements

A computer device, comprising a memory and a processor, wherein computer-readable instructions are stored on the memory and executable by the processor, and wherein the computer-readable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to implement operations comprising:

acquiring first device information of a calling terminal device and second device information of a called terminal device;
determining, based on the first device information and the second device information, whether there is nonessential information with respect to establishing a Web real-time communications (WebRTC) connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device;
in response to determining that there is the nonessential information, excluding the nonessential information from being collected and transmitted by the calling terminal device and the called terminal device to a signaling server, wherein the nonessential information comprises Internet connectivity establishment (ICE) candidates of a host type;
establishing the WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded, wherein the establishing the WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded comprises establishing the WebRTC connection using ICE candidates of a non-host type;
and
implementing WebRTC communications between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device.

3 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing computer-readable instructions stored thereon, wherein the computer-readable instructions upon execution by at least one processor cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

acquiring first device information of a calling terminal device and second device information of a called terminal device;
determining, based on the first device information and the second device information, whether there is nonessential information with respect to establishing a Web real-time communications (WebRTC) connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device;
in response to determining that there is the nonessential information, excluding the nonessential information from being collected and transmitted by the calling terminal device and the called terminal device to a signaling server, wherein the nonessential information comprises Internet connectivity establishment (ICE) candidates of a host type;
establishing the WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded, wherein the establishing the WebRTC connection between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device with the nonessential information being excluded comprises establishing the WebRTC connection using ICE candidates of a non-host type;
and
implementing WebRTC communications between the calling terminal device and the called terminal device.
