Abstract

A network information access system control method is cooperated with a track, at least an access point (AP) and a server. In this case, the access point is connected to the track. Additionally, the access point has a driving unit and a rolling unit. First step of the method is measuring at least one monitoring signal parameter by the access point. Then, the access point is to transform the monitoring signal parameter into a loading status parameter. Then, the method is inputting a default parameter into the access point. After that, the access point is comparing the loading status with the default parameter and generating a loading status signal. Finally, the access point is transmitting the loading status signal to the server so as to the server can control the access point moved along the track.

Claims

1. A network information access system control method cooperating with a track, at least an access point, and a server connected with the access point, wherein the access point has a driving unit and a rolling unit, the control method comprising:

measuring at least a monitoring signal parameter by the access point;

transforming the monitoring signal parameter into a loading status parameter by the access point;

inputting a default parameter into the access point;

comprising the loading status parameter with the default parameter to generate a loading status signal; and

transmitting the loading status signal to the server by the access point so that the server can control the access point to move along the track in accordance with the loading status signal.

2. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the monitoring signal parameter comprising a signal quality parameter, a link quality parameter, or a quality of service parameter.

3. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the default parameter is set by a user or the server.

4. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the default parameter comprising a loading distribution parameter, a peak signal parameter, a priority parameter, or a response timing parameter.

5. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the server controls a signal power of the access point in accordance with the loading status signal.

6. The control method according to claim 5, wherein the signal power is a signal receiving power or a signal delivering power.

7. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the server controls the access point to generate a bipolar bias for the driving unit to drive the rolling unit so as to move the access point along the track.

8. The control method according to claim 1, further comprising:

disposing at least a sensor adjacent to the track.

9. The control method according to claim 8, wherein the server obtains a position of the access point on the track by the sensor.

10. The control method according to claim 9, wherein the server obtains a position of the access point on the track by a contact sensor or an proximity sensor.

11. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the network information access system further comprises a power supply, and the power supply generates at least a power source for the network information access system.

12. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the server further controls an operating status of the access point in accordance with the loading status signal.

13. The control method according to claim 12, wherein the server controls the operating status of the access point is a sleep mode.

14. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the server controls the access point moving along a linear track or a loop track.

15. The control method according to claim 1, wherein the server controls the access point by means of a wireless transmission.

16. The control method according to claim 1, wherein at least one of the access points is operated at a first frequency and another one of the access points is operated at a second frequency when the network information access system comprises a plurality of access points.

17. The control method according to claim 16, wherein the server controls a part of the access points moving to an area with a high user density in accordance with the loading status signal.

18. The control method according to claim 16, wherein the server controls the access points on the track with average distribution in accordance with the loading status signal.

19. The control method according to claim 16, wherein each service set identifier of the access points are the same.
