Schemes for providing wireless communication
First Claim
1. A method performed under control of a cloud system, comprising:
- receiving, from an end device, first information that includes a first location of the end device and a location of an access point that the end device accesses;
determining based at least on the first information, that the end device moves to a second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point;
determining that the end device moves to a third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point;
providing, to the access point, a parameter that includes a priority order of the end device for a network channel of a wireless local area network; and
in response to the determinations that the end device moves to the second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point and that the end device moves to the third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point, instructing the access point to allocate a range of the network channel with a suppressed channel hopping to the end device, wherein the allocation is based on the priority order of the end device for the network channel of the wireless local area network.

Abstract
Technologies are generally described for providing wireless communications. In some examples, a method performed under control of a cloud system may include receiving, from an end device, first information including at least one of a location of the end device, a location of an access point to which the end device accesses, a media access control (MAC) address of the end device and a MAC address of the access point; determining that the end device moves to around the location of the access point and returns to around the location of the end device based at least in part on the first information; and instructing the access point to provide a wireless local area network to the end device with suppressed channel hopping.

10. A cloud system, comprising:
-
a receiver configured to receive, from an end device, first information that includes a first location of the end device and a location of an access point that the end device accesses; a determination unit configured to; determine based at least on the first information, that the end device moves to a second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point; determining that the end device moves to a third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point; and an access point control unit configured to; provide, to the access point, a parameter that includes a priority order of the end device for a network channel of a wireless local area network; and in response to the determinations that the end device moves to the second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point and that the end device moves to the third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point, instruct the access point to allocate a range of the network channel with a suppressed channel hopping to the end device, wherein the allocation is based on the priority order of the end device for the network channel of the wireless local area network. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a cloud system to perform or control performance of operations to:
-
identify information, received from an end device, that includes a first location of the end device and a location of an access point that the end device accesses; determine, based at least on the first information, that the end device moves to a second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point; determine, that the end device moves to a third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point; provide, to the access point, a parameter that includes a priority order of the end device for a network channel of a wireless local area network; and in response to the determinations that the end device moves to the second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point and that the end device moves to the third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point, instruct the access point to allocate a range of the network channel with a suppressed channel hopping to the end device, wherein the allocation is based on the priority order of the end device for the network channel of the wireless local area network.

19. A method performed under control of an end device, the method comprising:
-
communicatively connecting to a cloud system; transmitting, to the cloud system, information that includes a first location of the end device, and a location of an access point that the end device accesses; determining based at least on the first information, that the end device moves to a second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point; determining that the end device moves to a third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point; notifying the cloud system that the end device moves to the second location and then to the third location; and communicatively connecting to a range of a network channel with a suppressed channel hopping, wherein the range of the network channel is provided by the access point in response to the notification, and wherein the range of the network channel is provided by the access point based on a priority order of the end device for the network channel.

20. An end device comprising:
-
a connection unit configured to communicatively connect to a cloud system; a transmitter configured to transmit, to the cloud system, information that includes a first location of the end device, and a location of an access point that the end device accesses; a determination unit configured to; determining based at least on the first information, that the end device moves to a second location that is closer than the first location to the location of the access point; and determining that the end device moves to a third location that is farther than the second location from the location of the access point; and a notification unit configured to notify the cloud system that the end device moves to the second location and then to the third location, wherein the connection unit is further configured to communicatively connect to a range of a network channel with a suppressed channel hopping provided by the access point in response to the notification by the notification unit, and wherein the range of the network channel is provided by the access point based on a priority order of the end device for the network channel.
