Method, M2M terminal, AP, and system for achieving machine to machine service

摘要

A method, a machine to machine (M2M) terminal, an access point (AP), and a system for achieving a machine to machine service are provided. The method includes: determining an AP that supports the M2M service; establishing a communication connection to the AP; receiving service configuration information sent by the AP; and sending a service data report message to the AP according to the service configuration information, where the service data report message includes service data corresponding to the M2M service. The M2M terminal includes a determining module, a connection module, a first receiving module, and a first sending module. The AP includes a first determining module, a connection module, a first sending module, and a first receiving module. The system includes the M2M terminal, the AP, and the M2M server according to embodiments of the present invention.

1. A method for achieving a machine to machine (M2M) service, comprising:
determining a wireless access point (AP) that supports the M2M service by determining that a first service identifier that corresponds to the M2M service supported by an M2M terminal matches a second service identifier that corresponds to the M2M service supported by the AP when the second service identifier is received from the AP in a broadcast frame; determining the AP that supports the M2M service by determining that the first service identifier matches the second service identifier when the second service identifier is received from the AP in response to a probe request message; establishing a communication connection to the AP when the AP supports the M2M service; receiving service configuration information sent by the AP; and sending a service data report message to the AP according to the service configuration information, wherein the service data report message comprises service data corresponding to the M2M service, wherein after receiving the service configuration information sent by the AP, the method further comprises negotiating a data transmission mechanism with the AP according to the service configuration information, and wherein sending the service data report message to the AP according to the service configuration information comprises sending the service data report message to the AP according to the service configuration information and the result of the negotiation with the AP about the data transmission mechanism.
