Abstract

A Bluetooth transmission control system, a control system and a storage medium are provided. The Bluetooth transmission control method comprises: establishing a Bluetooth connection with a file receiving device by a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal initiating a Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device; detecting whether the mobile terminal synchronously turns on a Bluetooth music playback operation or not; negotiating a file transmission timeout period with the file receiving device by the mobile terminal based on a detection result; and transmitting a file to the file receiving device by the mobile terminal.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A Bluetooth transmission control method comprising steps:
establishing a Bluetooth connection with a file receiving device by a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal initiating a Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device;
detecting whether the mobile terminal synchronously turns on a Bluetooth music playback operation or not when it is detected that the mobile terminal initiates the Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device;
the mobile terminal negotiating with the file receiving device to determine a first timeout period for file transmission if the mobile terminal turns on the Bluetooth music playback operation synchronously; and
the mobile terminal negotiating with the file receiving device to determine a second timeout period for the file transmission if the mobile terminal does not turn on the Bluetooth music playback operation synchronously, wherein the first timeout period is longer than the second timeout period, the second timeout period is a preset normal file transmission timeout period;
transmitting a file to the file receiving device by the mobile terminal.

2. The Bluetooth transmission control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the step of establishing the Bluetooth connection with the file receiving device by the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal initiating the Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device comprises:
establishing the Bluetooth connection with the file receiving device by the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal and the file receiving device initiating Bluetooth after being successfully connected; and
the mobile terminal initiating the Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device.

3. The Bluetooth transmission control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the step of transmitting the file to the file receiving device by the mobile terminal comprises:
the mobile terminal starting transmitting the file to the file receiving device and synchronously monitoring whether the mobile terminal turns on the Bluetooth music playback operation or not after the mobile terminal negotiates with the file receiving device to determine the file transmission timeout period; and
the mobile terminal renegotiating the file transmission timeout period with the file receiving device if it is monitored that the Bluetooth music playback operation changes from turn-on status to turn-off status or from turn-off status to turn-on status.

4. The Bluetooth transmission control method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the step of the mobile terminal renegotiating the file transmission timeout period with the file receiving device comprises:
the mobile terminal sending a negotiation data packet to the file receiving device, and requesting to reset the file transmission timeout period;
the mobile terminal monitoring feedback information sent from the file receiving device; and
the mobile terminal resetting the file transmission timeout period according to the feedback information.

5. The Bluetooth transmission control method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the step of the mobile terminal resetting the file transmission timeout period according to the feedback information comprises:
resetting the file transmission timeout period as the second timeout period and then continuing transmitting the file to the file receiving device when the feedback information is that a status of the Bluetooth music playback operation changes from turn-on status to turn-off status; and
resetting the file transmission timeout period as the first timeout period and then continuing transmitting the file to the file receiving device when the feedback information is that the status of the Bluetooth music playback operation changes from turn-on status to turn-off status.

6. The Bluetooth transmission control method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein after the step of transmitting the file to the file receiving device by the mobile terminal, further comprises:
the mobile terminal stopping monitoring the Bluetooth music playback operation after file transmission between the mobile terminal and the file receiving device ends.

7. A Bluetooth transmission control system comprising a mobile terminal and a file receiving device:
the mobile terminal establishing a Bluetooth connection with the file receiving device, the mobile terminal initiating a Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device, and detecting whether the mobile terminal synchronously turns on a Bluetooth music playback operation or not; the mobile terminal negotiating with the file receiving device to determine a first timeout period for file transmission if the mobile terminal turns on the Bluetooth music playback operation synchronously; the mobile terminal negotiating with the file receiving device to determine a second timeout period for the file transmission if the mobile terminal does not turn on the Bluetooth music playback operation synchronously, wherein the first timeout period is longer than the second timeout period, the second timeout period is a preset normal file transmission timeout period; and the mobile terminal transmitting a file to the file receiving device.

8. The Bluetooth transmission control system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the transmitting the file to the file receiving device by the mobile terminal comprises:
the mobile terminal starting transmitting the file to the file receiving device and synchronously monitoring whether the mobile terminal turns on the Bluetooth music playback operation or not after the mobile terminal negotiates with the file receiving device to determine the file transmission timeout period; and
the mobile terminal renegotiating the file transmission timeout period with the file receiving device if it is monitored that the Bluetooth music playback operation changes from turn-on status to turn-off status or from turn-off status to turn-on status.

9. The Bluetooth transmission control system as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the mobile terminal renegotiating the file transmission timeout period with the file receiving device comprises:
the mobile terminal sending a negotiation data packet to the file receiving device, and requesting to reset the file transmission timeout period;
the mobile terminal monitoring feedback information sent from the file receiving device; and
the mobile terminal resetting the file transmission timeout period according to the feedback information.

10. The Bluetooth transmission control system as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the mobile terminal resetting the file transmission timeout period according to the feedback information comprises:
resetting the file transmission timeout period as the second timeout period and then continuing transmitting the file to the file receiving device when the feedback information is that a status of the Bluetooth music playback operation changes from turn-on status to turn-off status; and
resetting the file transmission timeout period as the first timeout period and then continuing transmitting the file to the file receiving device when the feedback information is that the status of the Bluetooth music playback operation changes from turn-on status to turn-off status.

11. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more program instructions executable by one or more processors in a mobile terminal to perform operations comprising:
establishing a Bluetooth connection with a file receiving device by a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal initiating a Bluetooth file transmission operation to the file receiving device;
detecting whether the mobile terminal synchronous
