The UI layer of terminal is finished the switching between the various man-machine interfaces under the triggering of user's keyboard input and various call events from the base station.UI layer between the various man-machine interfaces is different to the reaction from user's key-press event, because the design of the UI layer of different terminals is different, so the mode that different terminals makes a call by keyboard operation can be different.But general terminal all includes three kinds of modes that can make a call: one. input number keyboard under idle interface, enter the number editing interface, and after finishing number, editor makes a call by " Send " key; Two. when browsing address list, choose a certain record back to make a call by " Send " key; Three. enter message registration, check received call/missed call/when dialing, choose a certain record back to make a call by " Send " key.Fig. 2 has described the user when idle interface makes a call, and switch at the interface that the UI layer may carry out, and just represents that terminal enters the pre-call state when the UI layer switches among the figure interface in the rectangle frame.
In an embodiment according to the present invention, can safeguard a sign UI_Pre_Orig by the UI layer, whether the current terminal of this sign expression is in the pre-call state.When the starting up of terminal initialization, UI_Pre_Orig is changed to FALSE.When in a single day terminal enters arbitrary interface in above-mentioned three-type-person's machine interface (number editor/phone directory browse/message registration browse), then UI is changed to TRUE (very) with UI_Pre_Orig; When terminal entered into other interface except that above-mentioned three kinds, UI was changed to FALSE (vacation) with UI_Pre_Orig.
In the porch that the keyboard interrupt service routine is handled, increase is to the judgement of UI_Pre_Orig, if UI_Pre_Orig is FALSE, then continue original processing, judge further whether radio frequency unit needs to be waken up in advance to prepare monitoring seek channel this moment, then call radio frequency unit if desired and wake function up, otherwise allow it continue sleep; If UI_Pre_Orig is TRUE, then directly calls radio frequency unit and wake function up.Increase the processing of part among Fig. 3 in the frame of broken lines for the present invention in the keyboard interrupt service routine.
It should be noted that, because the mode difference that makes a call that different terminals provides, therefore the pre-call state be not browse with above-mentioned number editor/address list/the message registration browser interface is corresponding fully, its expression be: the user imports the SOT state of termination that may trigger calling next time.
With reference to figure 4, explanation can realize the mobile communication terminal of Fig. 1 to method shown in Figure 3.As shown in Figure 4, this mobile communication terminal comprises: condition judgment module 402, be used for entering under the situation that is different from current man machine operation interface, judge whether the next operation on the man machine operation interface that mobile communication terminal enters may trigger call at mobile communication terminal; Sign is provided with module 404, is used for the judged result according to condition judgment module, and the pre-call status indicator in the mobile communication terminal is provided with; And wake Executive Module 406 up, be used for determining whether waking up the radio frequency unit of mobile communication terminal, and then radio frequency unit is waken up or do not wake up according to the value of pre-call status indicator.
Wherein, if the judged result of condition judgment module is for being, then sign is provided with module pre-call status indicator and is set to first value, otherwise the pre-call status indicator is set to second value.
Wherein, be under the situation of first value in the value of pre-call status indicator, wake Executive Module up radio frequency unit is waken up.Value at the pre-call status indicator is under the situation of second value, wakes Executive Module up and does not wake radio frequency unit up.
Wherein, the man machine operation interface that may trigger call of the next operation on it comprises: number editing interface, this interface of browser phone and browse the message registration interface.
