Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, if any, are used merely for distinguishing between descriptions and not for indicating or implying a relative importance.
It should be noted that the features of the embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other without conflict.
Referring to fig. 1, a block diagram of a terminal device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The terminal device 100 includes a SAR sensor 110, a microprocessor 120 and a modem 130, the SAR sensor 110 is electrically connected to the microprocessor 120, the microprocessor 120 is electrically connected to the modem 130, the microprocessor 120 includes at least one GPIO (General Purpose Input Output ) interface, and a first correspondence is pre-stored in the modem 130, and the first correspondence includes a correspondence between a level state of the GPIO interface and a transmit power level (Device State Index, DSI).
Alternatively, the terminal device 100 may be a mobile phone, a notebook computer, a tablet, an intelligent wearable device, or the like.
The SAR sensor 110 is configured to send a corresponding interrupt trigger signal to the microprocessor 120 when it is determined that the sensed capacitance value reaches a preset trigger threshold.
In the present embodiment, the SAR SENSOR 110, which may also be called SAR SENSOR, measures the distance between the human body and the terminal device 100 by sensing a change in capacitance value. The SAR sensor 110 is configured to send a first interrupt trigger signal to the microprocessor 120 when the capacitance value reaches a first trigger threshold; when the capacitance value reaches a second trigger threshold, a second interrupt trigger signal is sent to the microprocessor 120; wherein the first trigger threshold is less than the second trigger threshold.
It will be appreciated that the SAR sensor 110 is triggered by an interrupt, i.e., when it is determined that the sensed capacitance value reaches a corresponding trigger threshold (also referred to as a trigger SAR event), a bit (bit) of a register on the microprocessor 120 can be manipulated so that the microprocessor 120 can determine whether a SAR event has triggered based on the value of the bit, and then perform a corresponding processing operation. In this manner, when the terminal device 100 is in the standby state, the microprocessor 120 does not need to use the polling operation mode (using the polling operation mode, the microprocessor 120 cannot sleep) to determine whether there is a SAR event trigger, so the microprocessor 120 can sleep when there is no SAR event trigger.
For example, a first trigger threshold is set as A, a second trigger threshold is set as B, and A < B; when the capacitance value sensed by the SAR sensor 110 reaches the first trigger threshold a, a "1" can be written to bit1 of a register on the microprocessor 120 (first interrupt trigger signal); when the capacitance value sensed by the SAR sensor 110 reaches the first trigger threshold B, "1" may be written to bit2 of the register on the microprocessor 120 (second interrupt trigger signal); the microprocessor 120 can determine whether there is an interrupt trigger according to whether the value of bit1 or bit2 of the register is "1".
It should be noted that, the first trigger threshold a and the second trigger threshold B may be determined according to a requirement of a user for a trigger distance. For example, the triggering distance corresponding to the first triggering threshold A is 20mm, and the triggering distance corresponding to the second triggering threshold B is 5mm; when the capacitance value sensed by the SAR sensor 110 reaches the first trigger threshold a, the trigger level of the current SAR event is considered to be a first-level trigger (i.e., long-distance trigger, SAR is reduced at 20mm from the terminal device 100); when the capacitance value sensed by the SAR sensor 110 reaches the second trigger threshold B, the trigger level of the current SAR event is considered to be a secondary trigger (i.e., a close range trigger, a decrease SAR at 5mm from the terminal device 100).
In this embodiment, in order to avoid that the SAR sensor 110 wakes up the main system of the terminal device 100 when determining that the sensed capacitance value reaches the corresponding trigger threshold, the SAR sensor 110 needs to register with the frame layer of the operating system of the terminal device 100, and the registration type is no-wakeup SAR sensor (a SAR type that cannot wake up the system when the device system goes to sleep), and the frame layer may perform an opening and listening operation on the SAR sensor 110.
The microprocessor 120 is configured to set a level state of the GPIO interface according to the interrupt trigger signal.
In this embodiment, the microprocessor 120, which may also be referred to as a sensor hub, is a low-power processing chip for connecting the SAR sensor 110 and processing data transmitted by the SAR sensor 110. When the microprocessor 120 acquires the interrupt trigger signal, it may determine that there is a SAR event trigger, and a level state of the GPIO interface needs to be set.
Optionally, the at least one GPIO interface includes a first GPIO interface and a second GPIO interface, where the microprocessor 120 is configured to set a level state of the first GPIO interface to a high level and a level state of the second GPIO interface to a low level when the interrupt trigger signal is the first interrupt trigger signal; when the interrupt trigger signal is a second interrupt trigger signal, the level state of the first GPIO interface is set to be low, and the level state of the second GPIO interface is set to be high.
For example, when the microprocessor 120 determines that the bit1 value of the register is "1", it determines that the trigger level of the current SAR event is a first level trigger, sets the level state of the first GPIO interface to be a high level, and sets the level state of the second GPIO interface to be a low level; when the microprocessor 120 judges that the bit2 bit value of the register is "1", determining that the trigger level of the current SAR event is a secondary trigger, setting the level state of the first GPIO interface to be a low level, and setting the level state of the second GPIO interface to be a high level; when the human body is far away from the terminal device 100, the level states of the first GPIO interface and the second GPIO interface are both default to high level.
The modem 130 is configured to poll and read the level state of the GPIO interface, determine a corresponding transmit power level according to the first correspondence and the level state of the GPIO interface, and reduce SAR of the terminal device 100 according to the transmit power level.
In this embodiment, the modem 130 may be configured to start a timer, and is configured to read the level state of the GPIO interface in the microprocessor 120 in real time, and determine whether the human body is far away from the terminal device 100, in a first-order approach state, or in a second-order approach state according to the level state of the GPIO interface. For example, when the level states of the first GPIO interface and the second GPIO interface are both high, then the current state is considered to be a far-away state; when the level state of the first GPIO interface is read to be high level and the level state of the second GPIO interface is read to be low level, the current state is considered to be a first-level approaching state; and when the level state of the first GPIO interface is read to be low level and the level state of the second GPIO interface is read to be high level, the second GPIO interface is considered to be a second-level approaching state.
Assuming that in the first corresponding relation, when the level states of the first GPIO interface and the second GPIO interface are both high levels, the corresponding transmitting power level is DSI1; the level state of the first GPIO interface is high level, and when the level state of the second GPIO interface is low level, the corresponding transmitting power class is DSI2; the level state of the first GPIO interface is low level, and when the level state of the second GPIO interface is high level, the corresponding transmitting power level is DSI3; after the modem 130 reads the level states of the GPIO interfaces, the corresponding transmit power levels can be determined according to the first correspondence and the level states of the first GPIO interface and the second GPIO interface, and the antenna transmit power of the terminal device 100 is reduced based on the determined transmit power levels, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the SAR of the terminal device 100.
Optionally, the microprocessor 120 is further configured to set the level state of the first GPIO interface to be low and the level state of the second GPIO interface to be low when the abnormal trigger signal is acquired.
In this embodiment, the microprocessor 120 may determine whether there is interrupt trigger according to the bit1/bit2 value of the register, but when other bits (bits except bit1 and bit 2) on the register are triggered by mistake, the microprocessor 120 will determine that abnormal trigger occurs and set the level state of the GPIO interface.
Assuming that in the first correspondence, when the level states of the first GPIO interface and the second GPIO interface are both low, the corresponding transmit power level is DSI4, and when the modem 130 reads that the level states of the first GPIO interface and the second GPIO interface are both low, it may be determined that the corresponding transmit power level is DSI4.
In practical applications, the modem 130 may also determine the corresponding transmit power level by acquiring the earpiece state of the terminal device 100 and combining the earpiece state of the terminal device 100 with the level state of the GPIO interface.
Optionally, the modem 130 further pre-stores a second correspondence relationship, where the second correspondence relationship includes a level state of the GPIO interface, a receiver state of the terminal device 100, and a transmission power level. Wherein the earpiece state of the terminal device 100 includes an open state and a closed state.
The modem 130 is further configured to obtain a receiver status of the terminal device 100, and determine a corresponding transmit power level according to the second correspondence, the receiver status of the terminal device 100, and the level status of the GPIO interface.
The receiver status of the terminal device 100 may be detected by the frame layer, and when the frame layer detects that the receiver status changes, the changed receiver status is sent to the modem 130, and the modem 130 determines the corresponding transmit power level according to the second correspondence, the receiver status of the terminal device 100, and the level status of the GPIO interface.
It should be noted that, in the terminal device 100 provided in this embodiment, the number of GPIO interfaces may be set according to the trigger level requirement of the SAR event, so as to be suitable for one-stage or even multi-stage triggering, and therefore, the setting number of GPIO interfaces is not limited in this embodiment.
It can be seen that, in the terminal device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present invention, when the SAR event is triggered, communication between the microprocessor 120 and the modem 130 can be implemented only by using the GPIO interface with empty hardware, without waking up the main system of the terminal device 100, the code is simple, the logic is clear, and the power consumption problem in the SAR triggering process is greatly reduced.
