For above-mentioned purpose of the present invention, feature and advantage can be become apparent more, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the specific embodiment of the present invention is described in detail.Set forth in the following description a lot of details so that fully understand the present invention, implemented but the present invention can also adopt other to be different from alternate manner described here, therefore the present invention is not subject to the restriction of following public specific embodiment.
Embodiment mono-
First, please refer to Fig. 1, execution step S101a, dynamically arranges search thresholding.In an embodiment of the present invention, described search thresholding selects object to select according to network.For example, require to select the good channel of network quality, higher search thresholding can be set.Described network selects object to comprise cell reselection or the selection of start network.The signal detecting threshold value that described search threshold value can be band signal intensity level or described terminal receiver.
It should be noted that, the method that dynamically arranges described search thresholding comprises: the first threshold value is set to search for thresholding, when described the first threshold value is during compared with wealthy family's limit value, can from exceed the frequency band of described the first threshold value, find out available frequency if follow-up, just can scan again lower than the frequency band of described the first threshold value, thereby save the frequency scan time.

Then,, please continue to refer to Fig. 1, execution step S104a, judges whether to have found available frequency.If found available frequency, can perform step S107a, return to scanning result.
If do not find available frequency; need to perform step S105a; list scanned frequency in frequency band protection zone; switching after described search threshold value preventing within the described permission search phase; same frequency is carried out to multiple scanning; thereby save sweep time, realized the short as far as possible time and can find available frequency.
For example; when finding out available frequency the follow-up frequency band not having from exceeding the first threshold value; just described search thresholding need to be switched to the second threshold value; in order the relevant frequency exceeding in the frequency band of described the first threshold value not to be scanned again; just can list the frequency exceeding in the frequency band of described the first threshold value in described frequency band protection zone, to avoid in the time that scanning exceeds the frequency band of the second threshold value its multiple scanning again.
Then, please continue to refer to Fig. 1, execution step S106a, if after the judgement of step S106a, finds also within the search phase, can return to step S101a, continue, by dynamically adjusting search threshold value, for example, can reduce described search threshold value, further expand sweep limits, to find out available frequency.
