Referring to fig. 1, a data transmission control method based on a network device includes:
s11: when terminal equipment transmits data by using a first network cell, if it is monitored that a first current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal equipment is greater than a first threshold value, the terminal equipment is controlled to transmit data by using the first network cell and a second network cell together.
Terminal device, which may be understood as any intelligent terminal that may access the internet using a cellular network. Wherein the terminal device is capable of attaching to the first network cell and the second network cell simultaneously.
The first network cell and the second network cell may be understood as network cells that are connectable to any terminal device and have not identical network modes, wherein the bandwidth of the network mode of the first network cell may be smaller than the bandwidth of the network mode of the second network cell, so that the power consumption in the network mode of the first network cell is relatively low, but the transmission speed may also be low.
The first current traffic may be understood as the monitored traffic of the terminal uploading and/or downloading data. By monitoring the current flow, the terminal equipment can be controlled to simultaneously transmit data by utilizing two network cells.
The first threshold value is understood to be any artificially set value, which may also be a variable value.

The second current traffic may be understood as the monitored traffic of the terminal uploading and/or downloading data. Through monitoring the current flow, the terminal equipment can be controlled to transmit data by utilizing the first network cell in time. The difference between the first current flow and the second current flow is mainly that the first current flow is monitored when only the first network cell is used for transmission, and the second current flow is monitored when the first network cell and the second network cell are used for transmission at the same time.
Through the step 12, when the flow is small, the first network cell can be switched back to transmit data, so that the effects of saving power consumption and prolonging the standby time are achieved.
In addition, the precedence relationship between step S11 and step S12 may be that step S12 is before and step S11 is after, and is not limited to that shown in fig. 1.
In the data transmission control method based on the network device provided by this embodiment, when the terminal device transmits data by using the first network cell, if it is monitored that the first current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal device is greater than the first threshold, the terminal device is controlled to transmit data by using the first network cell and the second network cell together; when the terminal equipment transmits data by using the first network cell and the second network cell together, if the second current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal equipment is monitored to be smaller than the first threshold value, the terminal equipment is controlled to transmit the data by using the first network cell; the method and the device realize that the data is transmitted only by using the first network cell when the flow demand is relatively small, thereby meeting the requirement of low power consumption, having longer standby time.

Referring to fig. 2, a method for controlling data transmission based on a network device includes:
s21: and determining that the terminal equipment utilizes the first network cell to transmit data.
Terminal device, which may be understood as any intelligent terminal that may access the internet using a cellular network. Wherein the terminal device is capable of attaching to the first network cell and the second network cell simultaneously. The terminal device can be any device or collection of devices with a communication device, a processor and a storage device, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer, an electronic reader and the like.
In one embodiment, the terminal device may be a device supporting multiple modes, such as eMTC, LTE, WCDMA, and GSM. After the mobile terminal is started, the terminal device may perform a dual attach procedure, and in a specific implementation process, the terminal device may be attached to a first network cell in an eMTC mode and a second network cell in an LTE mode at the same time, where the LTE mode may specifically be a network mode in which a bandwidth is greater than that of the eMTC mode.
S22: and monitoring a first current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal equipment.
The first current traffic may be understood as the monitored traffic of the terminal uploading and/or downloading data. By monitoring the current flow, the terminal equipment can be controlled to simultaneously transmit data by utilizing two network cells.
S23: whether the first current flow rate is greater than a first threshold.
If not, the method may return to step S22, i.e., continue to monitor the first current traffic while maintaining the data transmission using the first network cell.
The first threshold value is understood to be any artificially set value, which may also be a variable value.
If so, step S24 may be implemented: and controlling the terminal equipment to jointly transmit data by utilizing the first network cell and the second network cell.
In one embodiment, step S24 includes:
sending activation information to the terminal device such that: the terminal device controls an auxiliary communication device of the terminal device to enter an activated state from an inactivated state according to the activation information so as to communicate with the second network cell in the activated state, and: and after the auxiliary communication device enters an activated state, the terminal equipment utilizes the first network cell and the second network cell to jointly transmit data.
The activation information may be understood as information for activating an auxiliary communication device of the terminal device to enter an active state, wherein the active state may also be understood as a normal operating state, and the auxiliary communication device may be understood as a communication device that enters the active state after being activated and is available for communicating with the second network cell after being activated, so as to transmit data using the second network cell. The auxiliary communication device may be an LTE device.
The first network cell and the second network cell may be understood as network cells that are connectable to any terminal device and have not identical network modes, wherein the bandwidth of the network mode of the first network cell may be smaller than the bandwidth of the network mode of the second network cell, so that the power consumption in the network mode of the first network cell is relatively low, but the transmission speed may also be low.
Further, the first network cell may refer to a network cell of a specific network mode, for example, an eMTC mode network cell, but not to a specific cell, and likewise, the second network cell may refer to a network cell of a specific network mode, for example, an LTE mode network cell, or a network cell of a specific bandwidth LTE mode, but not to a specific cell. The first network cell may be characterized as an fcell (first cell) and the second network cell may be characterized as a scell (second cell).
In one embodiment, the network mode of the first network cell is an enhanced machine type communication, eMTC, mode, and the network mode of the second network cell is a long term evolution, LTE, mode with a bandwidth greater than that of the eMTC mode.
S25: and determining that the terminal equipment utilizes the first network cell and the second network cell to jointly transmit data.
S26: and monitoring a second current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal equipment.
The second current traffic may be understood as the monitored traffic of the terminal uploading and/or downloading data. Through monitoring the current flow, the terminal equipment can be controlled to transmit data by utilizing the first network cell in time. The difference between the first current flow and the second current flow is mainly that the first current flow is monitored when only the first network cell is used for transmission, and the second current flow is monitored when the first network cell and the second network cell are used for transmission at the same time.
S27: whether the second current flow rate is less than the first threshold.
If not, the method may return to step S26, i.e., continue to monitor the second current traffic while maintaining the data co-transmission using the first network cell and the second network cell.
If so, step S28 may be performed: and controlling the terminal equipment to transmit data by using the first network cell.
In one embodiment, step S28 may specifically include:
sending termination information to the terminal device such that: the terminal device controls the auxiliary communication device to enter the non-activated state from the activated state according to the termination information so as to stop communicating with the second network cell in the non-activated state, and: and after the auxiliary communication device enters an inactive state, the terminal equipment transmits data by using the first network cell.
The termination information, which may also be described as deactivation information, may be understood as information for deactivating the auxiliary communication device of the terminal equipment into an inactive state. Auxiliary communication devices such as LTE devices can greatly reduce power consumption in the inactive state, namely: through the above step S28, when the flow rate is small, the first network cell can be switched back to transmit data, so as to achieve the effects of saving power consumption and prolonging the standby time.
The processes of steps S21 to S24 may be performed before step S25 or after step S28, and are not limited to those shown in fig. 2.
Further, steps S21 to S28 may be implemented by the same server or server cluster, or may be implemented by different servers or server clusters, for example: steps S21 to S24 may be implemented by a first server or a first server group, and steps S25 to S28 may be implemented by a second server or a second server group.
In the data transmission control method based on the network device provided by this embodiment, when the terminal device transmits data by using the first network cell, if it is monitored that the first current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal device is greater than the first threshold, the terminal device is controlled to transmit data by using the first network cell and the second network cell together; when the terminal equipment transmits data by using the first network cell and the second network cell together, if the second current flow of the data transmitted by the terminal equipment is monitored to be smaller than the first threshold value, the terminal equipment is controlled to transmit the data by using the first network cell; the data transmission method and the data transmission device have the advantages that the data transmission is realized only by using the first network cell when the flow demand is relatively small, so that the requirement of low power consumption is met, the standby time is long, the transmission speed and the power consumption requirement are both considered, and the use experience of a user is effectively improved.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a data transmission control method based on a terminal device according to an embodiment of the present invention.
