  • Patent number: 9807785
    Abstract: A scheduling and processing method and apparatus for a wireless fidelity (WiFi) station (STA), which resolve a prior-art problem that when multiple STAs are connected to WiFi by means of one access point (AP), due to bandwidth contention, once a STA sensitive to a radio frequency signal is connected to the WiFi, the STA may occupy almost all bandwidth for data exchange, causing a decrease in quality of service of data transmission of the other STAs. The method includes the following steps: acquiring network connection information, within a predetermined time, of STAs that are connected to a WiFi network by means of an AP; sorting the network connection information of the STAs in accordance with priorities according to a predetermined algorithm, to obtain a level list of the STAs; and scheduling and processing to-be-processed data of a corresponding STA according to the level list.
