Abstract
A channel switching method, apparatus, and system are disclosed. A mobile terminal sends a channel switching command to a first access point, so that the first access point parses the channel switching command and sends a parsed channel switching command to a second access point and the second access point performs channel switching according to the parsed channel switching command. The mobile terminal receives a feedback message from the first access point. When the feedback message indicates that channel switching preparation of the second access point is ready, the mobile terminal breaks a connection to the first access point and sets up a connection to the second access point to complete the channel switching.

21. A channel switching method applied at a mobile terminal side, the method comprising:
-
sending, by a mobile terminal, a channel switching command to a first access point, so that the first access point parses the channel switching command and sends a parsed channel switching command to a second access point and the second access point performs channel switching according to the parsed channel switching command; receiving, by the mobile terminal, a feedback message from the first access point; and when the feedback message indicates that channel switching preparation of the second access point is ready, breaking, by the mobile terminal, a connection to the first access point and setting up a connection to the second access point to complete the channel switching. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A channel switching method, applied at a wireless access device side, wherein the wireless access device comprises a first access point and a second access point, the first access point is connected to a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by the first access point, a channel switching command sent by the mobile terminal, parsing the channel switching command, sending a parsed channel switching command to the second access point, so that the second access point performs channel switching according to the parsed channel switching command; when channel switching preparation of the second access point is ready, sending, by the first access point, a feedback message to the mobile terminal, wherein the feedback message is sent by the second access point to the first access point; receiving a request for breaking a connection to the first access point sent by the mobile terminal, breaking the connection between the first access point and the mobile terminal in response to the request; receiving, a request for setting up a connection to the second access point sent by the mobile terminal; and setting up the connection between the second access point and the mobile terminal. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29)

30. A mobile terminal, comprising:
-
a first sending unit, configured to send a channel switching command to a first access point, so that the first access point parses the channel switching command and sends a parsed channel switching command to a second access point and the second access point performs channel switching according to the parsed channel switching command; and a switching unit, configured to receive a feedback message from the first access point, wherein when the feedback message indicates that channel switching preparation of the second access point is ready, the mobile terminal breaks a connection to the first access point and sets up a connection to the second access point to complete the channel switching. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A wireless access device comprising a first access point and a second access point, the first access point being connected to a mobile terminal, wherein:
-
the first access point is configured to receive a channel switching command sent by the mobile terminal, parse the channel switching command, and send a parsed channel switching command to the second access point, so that the second access point performs channel switching according to the parsed channel switching command;
to receive a feedback message sent by the second access point and send the feedback message to the mobile terminal; and
to receive a request for breaking a connection sent by the mobile terminal and break a connection to the mobile terminal; andthe second access point is configured to receive the parsed channel switching command sent by the first access point and perform channel switching and, when channel switching preparation is ready, send the feedback message to the first access point; and
receive a request for setting up a connection sent by the mobile terminal and set up a connection to the mobile terminal. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
