1. A method for parsing a Received Channel Power Indicator (RCPI) value, performed by a controller access point (AP) in a wireless mesh network, comprising:
sending a measurement request for measuring strength of a connected signal to a terminal device;
receiving a measurement report sent by the terminal device based on the measurement request, wherein the measurement report carries an RCPI value;
determining a corresponding parsing algorithm according to a value range in which the RCPI value is located; and
parsing the RCPI value by utilizing the determined parsing algorithm;
wherein determining a corresponding parsing algorithm according to a value range in which the RCPI value is located comprises:
determining that a non-standard parsing algorithm is adopted to parse the RCPI value in response to a minimum value of the value range in which the RCPI value is located being greater than a maximum value of a preset threshold range, wherein the non-standard parsing algorithm is: RSSI=RCPI−256;
wherein RSSI represents a received signal strength indicator.
