The invention is further described below with reference to preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a GPRS connection protection method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method is applicable to any mobile terminal capable of GPRS wireless communication with an alarm center (for example, located in a defense area alarm host).
First, at step S110, the mobile terminal receives an incoming call. When the mobile terminal receives an incoming call, due to the limitation of the existing mobile communication network, the GPRS connection will be automatically closed no matter whether the user answers the incoming call. Therefore, when there is an incoming call, especially when a malicious strange number continues to call the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal cannot send a report to the alarm center using the GPRS connection.
At step S120, the mobile terminal determines whether the incoming call exceeds a predetermined limit. This step can also be considered as determining whether the incoming call is a malicious incoming call. The predetermined limit may be set to a predetermined number of incoming calls within a predetermined time. The predetermined time may be set to 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes or more, preferably 1 minute. The predetermined number of incoming calls may be different depending on the security level desired by the user, and may be set to 3 times, 5 times, or 10 times, for example. In a preferred embodiment, this step may only make a determination as to whether the incoming call to the unfamiliar number exceeds a predetermined limit. The way of determining whether the incoming call is a strange number belongs to the prior art and is not described in detail herein. However, the user may also make a determination whether incoming calls of all numbers exceed a predetermined limit according to specific needs, without being limited to unfamiliar numbers.
At step S130, when it is determined that the incoming call exceeds the predetermined limit through step S120, that is, when it is determined that the incoming call exceeds the predetermined number of times at the predetermined time, the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal is turned off. That is, when it is determined that the incoming call is a malicious call, the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal is turned off to protect the GPRS connection, i.e., to keep the GPRS connection available.
At step S140, after the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal is turned off at step S130, the mobile terminal generates an alert and indicates it to the user. The alert is then reported to an alert center at step S150. The alert generated by the mobile terminal may include the number of the incoming call, the number of times the incoming call is made, and the time of the incoming call, among others. The mobile terminal may indicate the alert to the user through the display, or may indicate the alert to the user through sound, vibration, or an indicator light, or any combination of these. Reports on the alarms are sent to the alarm centre over the protected GPRS connection.
After the alarm is reported to the alarm center, the GSM phone function is restored at step S160. After the report is sent to the alarm center, the GSM telephone function of the mobile terminal is recovered so as to enable the mobile terminal to recover to be normal and to be in the incoming call standby state again.
By the method of the embodiment, the mobile terminal can still maintain the usability of GPRS connection and send a report to the alarm center through the GPRS connection when the incoming call of the strange number is harassed (namely, continuous calling).
Fig. 2 is a functional block diagram illustrating a GPRS connection protection system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The GPRS connection protection system shown in fig. 2 is used in a mobile terminal and includes a receiving module 210, a determining module 220, a closing module 230, an alarming module 240, a reporting module 250, and a recovering module 260.
The receiving module 210 is used for receiving an incoming call. When the mobile terminal receives an incoming call through the receiving module 210, due to the limitation of the existing mobile communication network, the GPRS connection is automatically closed regardless of whether the user answers the incoming call. Therefore, when there is an incoming call, especially when a malicious strange number continues to call the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal cannot send a report to the alarm center using the GPRS connection.
The determining module 220 is used for determining whether the incoming call exceeds a predetermined limit. The function of the determining module 210 can also be considered as determining whether the incoming call is a malicious incoming call. The predetermined limit may be set to a predetermined number of incoming calls within a predetermined time. The predetermined time may be set to 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes or more, preferably 1 minute. The predetermined number of incoming calls may be different depending on the security level desired by the user, and may be set to 3 times, 5 times, or 10 times, for example. In a preferred embodiment, the determining module 210 may only determine whether the incoming call of the strange number exceeds a predetermined limit. The way of determining whether the incoming call is a strange number belongs to the prior art and is not described in detail herein. However, the user may also make a determination whether incoming calls of all numbers exceed a predetermined limit according to specific needs, without being limited to unfamiliar numbers.
The closing module 230 is configured to close the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal when the incoming call is determined to exceed the predetermined limit by the determining module 220, that is, when the incoming call is determined to exceed the predetermined number of times in the predetermined time. That is, when the incoming call is determined to be a malicious call, the shutdown module 230 shuts down the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal so as to protect the GPRS connection, i.e., keep the GPRS connection available.
The alarm module 240 is configured to generate an alarm and indicate to the user through the alarm module 240 after the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal is turned off by the turning-off module 230.
The reporting module 250 is used to report the alert to an alert center. The alert generated by the mobile terminal through the alert module 240 may include the number of the incoming call, the number of times of the incoming call, the time of the incoming call, and the like. The mobile terminal may indicate the alert to the user through the display, or may indicate the alert to the user through sound, vibration, or an indicator light, or any combination of these. Reports on the alarms are sent to the alarm centre over the protected GPRS connection.
The recovery module 260 is used to recover GSM phone functionality after reporting the alarm to the alarm center. After reporting to the alarm center, the GSM phone function of the mobile terminal is restored by the restoring module 260 so as to restore the mobile terminal to normal and to be in the incoming call standby state again.
Through the GPRS connection protection system of the embodiment, when incoming call harassment (namely continuous calling) of strange numbers occurs, the mobile terminal can still keep the usability of GPRS connection and send a report to an alarm center through the GPRS connection.
