With the development of a wired network and wireless network and the popularity of information technologies, demands for intellectualization, digitalization and informatization of family environment increase gradually, people are no longer satisfied by a traditional terminal equipment with simplex function, the terminal equipment with capability of satisfying various demands on family life, various functions and convenient operation are popular with people.

Integrated with mobile phones, gateways, computers, digital photo frames, is multimedia players and Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) and the like, with simple and convenient operation, a home information machine can satisfy demands on family life of people sufficiently.

At present, the home information machine comprises a Mobile Internet Device (MID) and a wireless Access Point (AP); the MID is configured to realize functions of mobile phones, computers, digital photo frames and multimedia players; the wireless AP is configured to realize functions of gateways. The terminal equipment such as the MID and computer is connected with the wireless AP through Wi-Fi and accesses the internet through the wireless AP; the mobile phone with DECT functions is connected with the wireless AP through DECT and realizes functions such as making a call and receiving short messages through the wireless AP. Therefore are various DECT functions, including receiving/sending short messages, making calls and accessing internet through the wired or wireless way; at present, the DECT in 1.8G or 1.9G must support Generic Access Profile (GAP), and another DECT supports a Cordless Advanced Technology internet and quality (CAT-iq) protocol. Through above standard protocols, it can be ensured that any terminal equipment with DECT functions can access any DECT fixed phone supporting above standard protocols.

A DECT device in the prior art can be accessed with a plurality of DECT sub-machines, FIG. 1 shows a structure diagram of a DECT device 11 accessing a plurality of DECT sub-machines 12 in the prior art, the plurality of DECT sub-machines 12 are connected with the DECT device 11 through wireless way, as limited to the DECT device 11, the management of the DECT device 11 for the DECT sub-machines 12 (for example, registration and unregistration of the DECT sub-machines 12, and the like) is relatively simple. For example, in terms of the registration of the DECT sub-machine, a registration password is stored in the DECT fixed phone of the DECT device, the registration of the DECT sub-machine comprises: the DECT sub-machine searches the DECT fixed phone, and sends a registration request to the DECT fixed phone when searching the DECT fixed phone; the DECT fixed phone sends a registration password input command to the DECT sub-machine initiating the registration request; the DECT sub-machine sends the registration password to the DECT fixed phone; the DECT fixed phone verifies the registration password sent by the DECT sub-machine, and determines that the registration of the DECT sub-machine is successful when the verification is successful. In terms of the unregistration of the DECT sub-machine, the automatic unregistration of the DECT sub-machine can be realized just by clearing registration information of the DECT sub-machine on the DECT sub-machine, it is unnecessary to notify the DECT fixed phone.

The existing registration process is employed, and the registration password is stored in the DECT fixed phone. When the machine is delivered from a factory, an initial password is set as the registration password and stored in the DECT fixed phone; during the use, a user can modify the registration password through the registered DECT sub-machine. The DECT sub-machine can modify the registration password only after successful registration; therefore, an illegal user just needs to obtain the verification information of the home information machine to access illegal PP machines to the home information machine, and further to embezzle resources. Therefore, the use of the existing registration process has the problem of low security and reliability; besides, the registration password has to be managed by the user, the usability of the DECT device is influenced to some extent.

Besides, the existing unregistration method of the DECT sub-machine also may cause some problems when the DECT sub-machine is applied in the home information machine, which is inconvenient for the home information machine to manage the DECT device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

For the technical problems in the prior art, an embodiment of the disclosure provides a registration method or an unregistration method for a home information machine and a home information machine thereof, to improve the security and reliability during the is registration of sub-machines in the home information machine. The method mainly comprises: a fixed part (FP) module is set in the home information machine, when a DECT sub-machine needs to be registered, a user needs to use an MID module of the home information machine to control the FP module to enter a registration state, and registration operation can be executed only after the FP module enters the registration state; in addition, after the registration of the DECT sub-machine is successful, the FP module is controlled by the MID module to exit the registration sate; once the FP module exits the registration state, the registration operation of DECT sub-machines is not allowed. With the technical solution of the disclosure, when the DECT sub-machine needs to be registered, the registration can be realized through cooperation of the FP module, the MID module and the DECT sub-machine to be registered in the home information machine, therefore the problem in the prior art of low security and reliability resulted from illegal users accessing a non-local DECT sub-machine to the local home information machine by realizing the registration just through participation of the MID module and the DECT sub-machine to be registered can be avoided.

The technical solution of the disclosure will be described in details below with reference to drawings.

FIG. 2 shows a structure diagram of a DECT system in an embodiment of the disclosure, the DECT system comprises a home information machine 21 and a plurality of DECT sub-machines 22, and Portable Part (PP) machine is configured to represent the DECT sub-machine in the following description. A plurality of PP machines 22 are accessed to the home information machine 21, to realize calls, short message receiving/sending and data transmission and the like through the home information machine 21.

The home information machine 21 comprises an FP module 211 and an MID module 212;

the FP module 211 is configured to store registration information of the PP machines 22 already registered in the DECT system, and to realize functions such as registration and unregistration of the PP machines 22.

More specifically, in the flow of realizing the registration of the PP machines, the FP module 211 is configured to, receive a registration command sent by the MID module 212, and enter a registration state; to receive and store a registration password from the MID module 212, wherein the registration password is configured to verify the input password when the PP machine is registered; after receiving a registration request from the PP machine 22 to be registered, and to send a notification message indicating to input the password to the PP machine 22 to be registered, compare the password sent by the PP machine 22 to be registered with the registration password stored locally, and send the registration information of the PP machine 22 to be registered to the MID module 212 after the verification is successful. In the flow of realizing the unregistration of the PP machines, the FP module 211 is configured to, receive an unregistration request sent by the MID module 212 or the PP machines 22 to be unregistered, according to the unregistration request, and to delete the registration information of the PP machines 22 to be unregistered, and send the notification message indicating that the unregistration is successful to the MID module 212.

The MID module 212 is configured to obtain the registration information of the PP machines 22 from the FP module 211, and display the obtained registration information to a user; and to manage the registration and unregistration of the PP machines 22, and set parameter information of the FP module 211; wherein the parameter information comprises phone function related parameters, short message function related parameters, data transmission function related parameters, and related processing parameters of the FP module 211 during the registration and unregistration.

Generally, the MID module 212 is further configured to manage other functions of the FP module 211 and the PP machines 22, including call, short message receiving/sending and data transmission and other services.

More specifically, in the flow of realizing the registration of the PP machines, the MID module 212 is configured to send a registration command to the FP module 211, and send a registration password to the FP module 211; after receiving registration is information of the PP machine 22 to be registered with successful registration from the FP module 211, to update the locally stored registration information of the PP machine 22. In the flow of realizing the unregistration of the PP machines, the MID module 212 is configured to send an unregistration command to the FP module 211, wherein the unregistration command includes identification information of the PP machine 22 to be unregistered; after receiving the unregistration successful notification message about the unregistration of the PP machine 22 to be unregistered from the FP module 211, and to update the locally stored registration information of the PP machine 22.

The registration process in the technical solution of the disclosure will be described in details below with reference to the system as shown FIG. 2, and FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of a registration method for PP machines in an embodiment of the disclosure, and the method comprises the following steps.

Step S301: The FP module of the home information machine receives the registration command and verification information for verifying the PP machine to be registered sent by the MID module.

In this step, the verification information may be randomly generated by the MID module at each time of registration process, also may be set by the user according to the interface provided by the MID module (that is, self-defined verification information), and also may be verification information generated through other ways.

Step S302: The FP module enters the registration state, and receives the registration request sent by the PP machine to be registered.

Step S303: The FP module sends the notification message indicating to input verification information to the PP machine to be registered, verifies the verification information input by the PP machine to be registered by the verification information sent by the MID module, and determines whether the registration is successful according to the verification result.

The step that the FP module verifies the verification information input by the PP machine to be registered is specifically as follow: compares the verification information sent by the MID module with the verification information sent by the PP machine to be registered; if they are identical, then determines that the verification is successful; if not, then determines that the verification is failed.

Besides the above verification method, the verification way may be that corresponding relations of a plurality of a first verification information sent to the FP module and a second verification information to be input by the PP machine are set in the MID module in advance, when one registration process occurs, the user sends a randomly selected first verification information to the FP module through the MID module; during the registration procedure, if the verification information input by the PP machine to be registered is identical with the second verification information corresponding to the first verification information in the FP module, then it is indicated that the verification is successful; otherwise, the verification is failed.

Step S304: After the registration of the PP machine to be registered is successful, the FP module exits the registration state.

In this step, the FP module exits the registration state according to the registration exit command sent by the MID module.

Preferably, in order to update the stored registration information of the registered PP machine in the MID module in time, after the registration of the PP machine to be registered is successful, the FP module sends the registration information of the PP machine to be registered to the MID module, thereof the MID module can update the registration information of the registered PP machine in time.

Preferably, in order to reduce influence of the registration process of the PP machine on the home information machine, the flow further comprises the following step between steps S301 and S302: according to the current service state of the FP module itself, the FP module determines whether entering the registration state is allowable; for example, when there are other PP machines executing services such as call, short message receiving/sending, registration, unregistration, data transmission or password modification, the FP module determines that entering the registration state is not allowable; otherwise, the FP module determines that entering the registration state is allowable. If allowable, the FP module sends a notification message indicating that it is allowed to enter the registration state to the MID module; if not allowable, the FP module sends a notification message indicating that it is prohibited to enter the registration state to the MID module, exits the registration state automatically, and reports a notification message indicating that registration process is ended to the MID module.

Preferably, in order to avoid the problem of high registration failure rate caused by incorrect verification information input by the PP machine to be registered due to the input error of the user, in step S303, if verification is failed, the method further comprises the following steps: the FP module sends a notification message indicating to input verification information again to the PP machine to be registered, if the correct verification information is still not input when the number of times for inputting the verification information by the PP machine to be registered exceeds the preset threshold, then the FP module determines that the registration of the PP machine to be registered is failed, thus the FP module exits the registration state automatically and reports the notification message indicating that registration process is ended to the MID module.

Preferably, in order to avoid the serious influence on the home information machine due to relatively long time when the PP machine to be registered initiates the registration request, in the technical solution of the disclosure, a threshold time period is set in advanced, in step S302, if the FP module fails to receive the registration request from the PP machine to be registered within the threshold time period after entering the registration state, when the threshold time period arrives, the FP module exits the registration state automatically and reports the notification message indicating that the registration process is ended to the MID module.

Preferably, in order to determine the security of the registration process of the PP machine, in the technical solution of the disclosure, for each registration process, the MID module generates different verification information, for example through the way of random generation described above, or the way of requiring the user to input verification information through the MID interface during each registration process, and then sends is the verification information generated for this registration process to the FP module, to realize the dynamic change of the verification information and reduce the insecure probability resulted from long-term use of same verification information.

To make those skilled in the art understand the technical solution of the disclosure more clear and detailed, the flows of registration and unregistration of the PP machine will be described in details below with reference to a plurality of flowcharts, respectively.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, an agreement can be made between the MID module and the FP module, if the registration information inquiry request does not include the identification information of the PP machines, the FP module sends the locally stored registration information of all registered PP machines to the MID module; if the registration information inquiry request includes the identification information of the is PP machines, the FP module sends the registration information of the PP machine corresponding to the identification information in the inquiry request to the MID module.

Step S603: The MID module selects the PP machine as unregistered according to the obtained registration information, that is, the PP machine to be unregistered, and sends the unregistration request to the FP module; wherein the unregistration request includes the identification information of the PP machine to be unregistered.

Steps S604-S605: According to the unregistration request, the FP module unregisters the PP machine to be unregistered, and sends a notification message indicating that the PP machine is unregistered to the PP machine to be unregistered.

Preferably, as the PP machine to be unregistered may be executing certain service currently, in order to avoid influence of the unregistration process on the service of the PP machine to be unregistered, the method further comprises the following step between steps S603 and S604: the FP module judges whether the unregistration of the PP machine to be unregistered is allowable; if yes, execute step S604; otherwise, send a notification message indicating that the unregistration of the PP machine to be unregistered is not allowable to the MID module; the step that the FP module judges whether the unregistration is allowable specifically comprises: if the FP module judges that the PP machine to be unregistered or other PP machines are executing services such as call, short message receiving/sending, data transmission, registration or unregistration, then it determines that the unregistration of the PP machine to be unregistered is not allowable; otherwise, it determines that the unregistration of the PP machine to be unregistered is allowable.

FIG. 7 shows a flowchart of an unregistration method initiated by the PP machine in an embodiment of the disclosure, and the method comprises the following steps.

Step S701: The PP machine to be unregistered sends an unregistration request to the FP module, wherein the unregistration request includes the identification information of the PP machine to be unregistered.

Step S702: The FP module unregisters the PP machine to be unregistered.

Step S703: The FP module sends a notification message indicating that the unregistration is successful to the PP machine to be unregistered.

Preferably, since the PP machine to be unregistered may be executing certain service currently, in order to avoid influence of the unregistration on the service of the PP machine to be unregistered, the method further comprises the following step between steps S701 and S702: the FP module judges whether the unregistration of the PP machine to be unregistered is allowable; if yes, execute step S702; otherwise, send a notification message indicating that the unregistration of the PP machine to be unregistered is not allowable to the PP machine to be unregistered.

Preferably, in order to update the registration information of the registered PP machines stored in the MID module in time, after step S703, the method further comprises the following steps.

Step S704: The FP module sends the unregistration message to the MID module, wherein the unregistration message includes the identification information of the unregistered PP machines.

Preferably, for a case in which the number of the PP machines accessed to the home information machine has reached its upper limit currently and there are still new PP machines to be registered, the user needs to use the MID module to unregister the PP machines that are not used temporarily or not used for a long time, after the unregistration is finished, new PP machines are registered according to the above registration process.

Preferably, for a case in which one home information machine comprises a plurality of MID modules, a registration password is set for each MID module, when the user needs to register a PP machine, the registration password input by the PP machine is matched with the registration passwords corresponding to the plurality of MID modules, the MID module with matched registration password is determined as the target MID module to which the PP machine is to be accessed, and the PP machine is registered to the target MID module.

Preferably, for a home information machine rightly delivered from the factory, when the home information machine is not accessed with any PP machine, in order to avoid security problem caused by the default password, when the PP machine is registered in the home information machine for the first time, the user needs to input the pairing code through the interface provided by the MID module of the home information machine to execute the registration process.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the FP module is set on a traditional home information machine; when a new PP machine is to be registered in the home information machine, the MID module of the home information machine sends the verification information to the FP module and controls the FP module to enter the registration state; after receiving the verification information sent by the PP machine to be registered, the FP module verifies the verification information sent by the PP machine to be registered by the verification information sent by the MID module; after the verification is successful, it determines that the registration of the PP machine to be registered is successful, and exits the registration state under the control of the MID module. With the technical solution of the disclosure, when the PP machine is to be registered, the registration process can be executed only after the FP module enters the registration state under the control of the MID module; when the FP module exits the registration state, the registration of PP machines is not allowed, thereof the security and reliability of the registration process are improved; the problem in the prior art of low security and reliability of the registration process, which is caused because the registration can be executed as long as correct verification information is sent by the PP machines when PP machines are registered and illegal users can easily access illegal PP machines to the home information machine just by obtaining the verification information stored in the MID module, is overcome.

Obviously, for those skilled in the art, the disclosure may have various changes and variants within the spirit and scope of the disclosure; in this way, if these modifications and variants are made within the claims and equivalent technologies of the disclosure, these modifications and variants should be included within the protection scope of the disclosure.
