  • Publication number: 20240171941
    Abstract: This application provides a Bluetooth positioning device detection method, a device, and a storage medium. The method includes: recording first location information, where a set of the first location information is used as a first track, and the first track is a moving track of a first electronic device; recording second location information when a preset trigger condition is met, where a set of the second location information is used as a second track, and the second track is used to represent a moving track of a Bluetooth positioning device; calculating a similarity between the first track and the second track in a preset time period; and determining that the first electronic device is tracked by the Bluetooth positioning device if the track similarity is greater than a preset similarity threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240098452
    Abstract: This application provides a device tracking detection method and an electronic device, and is related to the field of terminal technologies. Because when the first electronic device receives a first Bluetooth signal based on a first signal filter, it implies that a first Bluetooth peripheral is near the first electronic device; and because the first Bluetooth peripheral broadcasts the first Bluetooth signal only once every other second duration, it also implies that the first Bluetooth peripheral may be near the first electronic device within the second duration during which the first Bluetooth signal is received based on the first signal filter. Therefore, when a moving speed is greater than a preset speed threshold, recorded trajectory information of the first Bluetooth peripheral includes not only location information of the first electronic device when receiving the first Bluetooth signal, but also location information of the first electronic device within the second duration.

  • Publication number: 20230370541
    Abstract: This application provides a sound pickup method for a terminal device through a Bluetooth peripheral and a terminal device. The terminal device may pick up sound data through a microphone of the Bluetooth peripheral, and may perform targeted sound effect processing on the sound data picked up by the Bluetooth peripheral by using a preset sound effect DRC parameter corresponding to the Bluetooth peripheral. By using the solution in this application, the terminal device may not only pick up sound through the Bluetooth peripheral, but also perform sound effect processing for different Bluetooth peripherals by using different preset sound effect DRC parameters respectively, to improve the sound effect of the sound picked up through the Bluetooth peripheral, so that a better recording effect can be achieved even if the terminal device is relatively far away from a photographed person or environmental noise surrounding the terminal device is relatively large.

  • Publication number: 20230041669
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a Bluetooth connection method, a system, and an electronic device. In the method, when a communication connection between an electronic device and a vehicle head unit is disconnected, the electronic device starts to scan a Bluetooth advertising signal. When a user carrying the electronic device is close to the vehicle head unit, the electronic device may obtain, through scanning, a Bluetooth advertising signal sent by the vehicle head unit. When obtaining, through scanning, the Bluetooth advertising signal sent by the vehicle head unit, the electronic device may start a vehicle manufacturer application when the vehicle manufacturer application is cleared by a system. The electronic device may reconnect to the vehicle head unit through Bluetooth by using the vehicle manufacturer application and a Bluetooth chip. Embodiments of this application can improve convenience of unlocking in a scenario in which a vehicle is insensibly unlocked.

  • Publication number: 20220201453
    Abstract: This application provides a service connection establishment method, a Bluetooth master device, and a chip. After scanning a device combination including at least two Bluetooth slave devices, the Bluetooth master device, if required to establish a service connection with each of Bluetooth slave devices in the device combination, needs to do as follows: in a pairing phase, the Bluetooth master device automatically pairs with another Bluetooth slave device in the device combination after completing pairing with one Bluetooth slave device in the device combination; in a service connection establishment phase, similarly, the Bluetooth master device automatically establishes a service connection with another Bluetooth slave device in the device combination after establishing a service connection with one Bluetooth slave device in the device combination. This is a simple process, and a speed of service connection establishment is high.
