Up to this point, mobile terminals have been described in terms of their functionality. Hereinafter, a slide-type mobile terminal among various types of mobile terminals, such as a folder-type, bar-type, swing-type, slide-type mobile terminal, and the like, will be described as an example for the sake of brevity. Accordingly, the present invention can be applied to any type of mobile terminal, and is not limited to a slide type mobile terminal.
The mobile terminal 100 as shown in fig. 1 may be configured to operate with communication systems such as wired and wireless communication systems and satellite-based communication systems that transmit data via frames or packets.
A communication system in which a mobile terminal according to the present invention is operable will now be described with reference to fig. 2.
Such communication systems may use different air interfaces and/or physical layers. For example, the air interface used by the communication system includes, for example, Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) (in particular, Long Term Evolution (LTE)), global system for mobile communications (GSM), and the like. By way of non-limiting example, the following description relates to a CDMA communication system, but such teachings are equally applicable to other types of systems.
Referring to fig. 2, the CDMA wireless communication system may include a plurality of mobile terminals 100, a plurality of Base Stations (BSs) 270, Base Station Controllers (BSCs) 275, and a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) 280. The MSC280 is configured to interface with a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) 290. The MSC280 is also configured to interface with a BSC275, which may be coupled to the base station 270 via a backhaul. The backhaul may be constructed according to any of several known interfaces including, for example, E1/T1, ATM, IP, PPP, frame Relay, HDSL, ADSL, or xDSL. It will be understood that a system as shown in fig. 2 may include multiple BSCs 2750.
Each BS270 may serve one or more sectors (or regions), each sector covered by a multi-directional antenna or an antenna pointing in a particular direction being radially distant from the BS 270. Alternatively, each partition may be covered by two or more antennas for diversity reception. Each BS270 may be configured to support multiple frequency allocations, with each frequency allocation having a particular frequency spectrum (e.g., 1.25MHz,5MHz, etc.).
The intersection of partitions with frequency allocations may be referred to as a CDMA channel. The BS270 may also be referred to as a Base Transceiver Subsystem (BTS) or other equivalent terminology. In such a case, the term "base station" may be used to generically refer to a single BSC275 and at least one BS 270. The base stations may also be referred to as "cells". Alternatively, each sector of a particular BS270 may be referred to as a plurality of cell sites.
As shown in fig. 2, a Broadcast Transmitter (BT)295 transmits a broadcast signal to the mobile terminal 100 operating within the system. A broadcast receiving module 111 as shown in fig. 1 is provided at the mobile terminal 100 to receive a broadcast signal transmitted by the BT 295. In fig. 2, several Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites 300 are shown. The satellite 300 assists in locating at least one of the plurality of mobile terminals 100.
In fig. 2, a plurality of satellites 300 are depicted, but it is understood that useful positioning information may be obtained with any number of satellites. The GPS module 115 as shown in fig. 1 is generally configured to cooperate with satellites 300 to obtain desired positioning information. Other techniques that can track the location of the mobile terminal may be used instead of or in addition to GPS tracking techniques. In addition, at least one GPS satellite 300 may selectively or additionally process satellite DMB transmission.
As a typical operation of the wireless communication system, the BS270 receives reverse link signals from various mobile terminals 100. The mobile terminal 100 is generally engaged in conversations, messaging, and other types of communications. Each reverse link signal received by a particular base station 270 is processed within the particular BS 270. The obtained data is forwarded to the associated BSC 275. The BSC provides call resource allocation and mobility management functions including coordination of soft handoff procedures between BSs 270. The BSCs 275 also route the received data to the MSC280, which provides additional routing services for interfacing with the PSTN 290. Similarly, the PSTN290 interfaces with the MSC280, the MSC interfaces with the BSCs 275, and the BSCs 275 accordingly control the BS270 to transmit forward link signals to the mobile terminal 100.
Based on the above mobile terminal hardware structure and communication system, the present invention provides various embodiments of the method.
As shown in fig. 3, a first embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus for searching information in a mobile terminal, including:
the pressure sensor 310 is installed in the mobile terminal, a sensing area is divided on the back of the mobile terminal, and the pressure sensor is used for sensing the pressure generated when a user touches the sensing area. In the embodiment, a trigger area arranged with a pressure sensor is arranged on the back of the mobile terminal and is used as a sensing area; in this embodiment, the sensing region may be all or a partial region of the back (rear case) of the mobile terminal.
The touch operation detection module 320 detects a touch operation of the user on the sensing area through the pressure sensor 310.
The condition generating module 330 is configured to generate a condition for searching for information according to the characteristic of the touch operation. In this embodiment, the characteristics of the touch operation are not limited, and specifically include: the touch operation comprises a knocking operation, and the characteristics of the touch operation comprise the frequency and/or pressure of the knocking operation; the specific way of generating the condition may be: and searching the information before the corresponding days according to the times of the knocking operation. In addition, the characteristic of the touch operation may be the position of the touch operation, and different positions of the touch operation correspond to different preset conditions.
And the information searching module 340 is used for searching information from the mobile terminal according to the condition. Specifically, the touch operation comprises a pressing operation with a pressing time exceeding a preset time threshold; when the touch operation detection module 320 detects a pressing operation by the pressure sensor 310, the information search module 340 starts searching for information in the generated condition. Further, the pressing operation may also be used to cancel the current information lookup.
One application scenario of the present embodiment is as follows: when a user browses mobile phone information, the user enters an information list interface, needs to search a piece of information before a specific day, and can use fingers to knock the 'sensing area' with different force for several times to perform rapid screening. For example, when a user needs to search for a certain piece of information three days ago, the user lightly taps three times (tap times 3) in the "sensing area" with a finger and then presses the "sensing area" for a long time (for example, the pressing time exceeds 2 seconds and then the long-time pressing operation is performed), so that the information list on the screen of the user is triggered to screen and display all information items three days ago, and the user can quickly locate and search the piece of information three days ago needing to be searched. At this time, if the user wants to continue to search for a certain piece of information four days ago on the basis, the user only needs to lightly tap the sensing area again (the tapping frequency is 4), and then presses the sensing area for a long time, so that the information list on the user screen can be triggered to screen and display all information items four days ago, and if the user wants to quit the screening mode, the user only needs to press the sensing area for a long time, so that the information list on the user screen can be triggered to display all information list items.
According to the technical scheme of the embodiment, a certain page on the user terminal has a large amount of list information (such as short messages, WeChat list interfaces and the like), specifically, as shown in fig. 4, a user needs to find a piece of information before a specific day, all information before the specific day can be quickly screened out only by using different force and frequency knocking combinations on the pressure sensor at the back of the mobile phone, specifically, as shown in fig. 5, so that a piece of information in the current day can be quickly found, and the method is very quick and convenient.
A second embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus for searching information in a mobile terminal, including:
the pressure sensor 310 is installed in the mobile terminal, a sensing area is divided on the back of the mobile terminal, and the pressure sensor is used for sensing the pressure generated when a user touches the sensing area.
The touch operation detection module 320 detects a touch operation of the user on the sensing area through the pressure sensor 310.
The condition generating module 330 counts the number p of the tapping operations with the pressure values exceeding the preset first threshold value and the number q of the tapping operations with the pressure values lower than the preset second threshold value, sets time based on the result values of p × a + q × b, where a and b are non-zero numbers, and the condition is to search information corresponding to the time.
One specific example is as follows: if the user wants to quickly find a certain piece of information n (n is a positive integer) days ago, the user can firstly use a little strength to tap p (p is a positive integer) on the 'sensing area', the times of the signal quantity S1 generated by the tap of the user 'S finger statistically captured by the pressure sensor in the' sensing area 'are accumulated to obtain the ten bits (namely, a is 10) representing the input, and then use a little strength to tap q (q is a positive integer) on the' sensing area ', the times of the signal quantity S2 (the difference between the signal quantities S1 and S2 is that the force of the user' S tap on the 'sensing area' is different to generate the difference) statistically captured by the pressure sensor in the 'sensing area' are accumulated to obtain the input bits (namely, b is 1) representing the input, and any positive integer can be always obtained by the combination and addition of other positive integers, therefore, the method comprises the following steps:
n=10p+q,(n>=0,p>=0,q>=0)
for example, if a user wants to search for a certain piece of information twenty-three days ago, the user can first use a little strength to tap two times on the "sensing area" to represent that "twenty" is input, then use a little strength to tap three times gently to represent that "three" is input, and finally press the "sensing area" for a long time, that is, all information items twenty-three days ago can be screened and displayed on the information list on the user screen (one tap with a big strength to represent that one signal quantity "ten" is input, one tap with a little strength to represent that one signal quantity "one" is input, and the two input signal quantities are combined and added to represent that how many days ago the information is to be screened), and the specific principle is shown in fig. 6.
