The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

First, terms related to embodiments of the present invention are explained.

Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMNs) are networks established and operated by governments or operators approved by them for the purpose of providing Land Mobile services to the Public. The PLMN — MCC + MNC, where MCC is a Mobile country number and its english is a Mobile country code, is composed of 3 digits, and uniquely identifies the country to which the Mobile client belongs, for example, 460 in china, 316 in the united states, and 525 in singapore. The MNC is a Mobile Network number, and the English of the MNC is a Mobile Network Code, which consists of 2 digits and is used for identifying the Mobile Network to which the Mobile client belongs. For example, the China Mobile GSM, TD-SCDMA, LTE are 00/02/07 respectively, the China Unicom GSM is 0l, and the China telecom CDMA is 03.

A Home Public Land Mobile Network (HPLMN) is a PLMN whose Home location is a Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) corresponding to an International Mobile Subscriber Identity Number (IMSI).

The IMSI is a mark for distinguishing a mobile subscriber, is stored in the SIM card, and can be used for distinguishing valid information of the mobile subscriber.

In the prior art, the conventional boot-up network searching firstly searches the RPLMN and HPLMN of the network for the last time, and then searches other available networks, for example: operator networks and user-defined networks. With the increasing frequency bands supported by the mobile phone and the condition limitations such as complicated network coverage of the roaming place, the standard sequence makes the network searching of the first roaming place particularly slow. Based on this, the embodiment of the application provides a network searching method and a related product, which can improve the network searching and registering efficiency.

The electronic devices involved in the embodiments of the present application may include various handheld devices, vehicle-mounted devices, wearable devices, computing devices or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem with wireless communication functions, as well as various forms of User Equipment (UE), Mobile Stations (MS), terminal equipment (terminal device), and so on. For convenience of description, the above-mentioned devices are collectively referred to as electronic devices.

Fig. 1A is a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device according to the present invention. The electronic device 100 includes: a first subscriber identity card 111, a second subscriber identity card 112, a baseband processing module 120, a memory 130, a first transceiver 141, a first antenna 142, a second transceiver 143, a second antenna 144, etc. The baseband processing module 120 includes: a signal processor 121, a modem 122, and an application processor 123. The modem 122 includes a first protocol stack 1221 and a second protocol stack 1222.

In the present application, the first subscriber identity card 111 and the second subscriber identity card 112 respectively store data (for example, network numbers) corresponding to networks, and network searching, network registration, and the like can be performed according to the data, thereby realizing communication of the electronic device.

The first subscriber identity card 111 and the second subscriber identity card 112 may be disposed in regions corresponding to the first card slot and the second card slot, respectively. The first card slot and the second card slot may be independent card slots, that is, include two independent card holders for respectively carrying the first subscriber identity card 111 and the second subscriber identity card 112. Therefore, the first user identification card and the second user identification card can be independently hot-plugged. The first card slot and the second card slot can also adopt a 'one-support-two' mode, namely only comprising one card support with two card slots. In this way, the first subscriber identity card 111 and the second subscriber identity card 112 cannot implement separate hot plug.

The access stratum generally refers to the portion of the network directly facing the user connection or access; a Non-access stratum (NAS) exists in a radio communication protocol stack of a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) as a functional layer between a core network and a user equipment. This layer supports signaling and data transfer between the two.

In short, the access stratum procedure refers to a procedure that a Radio Network Controller (RNC) and a NodeB of a Radio access stratum need to participate in processing. The flow of the non-access stratum refers to the signaling flow which only needs to be processed by the UE and the CN, and the RNC and the NodeB do not need to be processed. By way of a visual metaphor, the signaling of the access stratum is bridged for the signaling interaction of the non-access stratum. A signaling path is established between the UE and the CN through the signaling interaction of the access stratum, so that the signaling process of the non-access stratum can be carried out.

In the embodiment of the present application, the memory 130 is used for storing data, and the specific network parameter file may be stored in the memory 130. The memory 130 may be any available storage medium that can be accessed by general purpose or special purpose, such as a hard disk drive memory, a non-volatile memory (e.g., a flash memory or other electronically programmable read-only memory used to form a solid state drive, etc.), a volatile memory (e.g., a static or dynamic random access memory, etc.), etc., and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

In one possible example, the controlling the first access stratum to share the target MCC information comprises: determining a first network searching signaling corresponding to the second access layer; adding an identifier corresponding to a preset sharing position in the first network searching signaling to obtain a second network searching signaling; controlling the first access layer to store the target MCC information to the preset sharing position, and sending the second network searching signaling to the second access layer; the controlling the second access stratum to acquire the target MCC information includes: and controlling the second access layer to acquire the target MCC information according to the second network searching signaling.

Wherein, the first network searching signaling is used for indicating the second access layer to search the MCC; the second network searching signaling is used for instructing the second access layer to acquire the target MCC information from the shared location corresponding to the target MCC information, and also used for instructing the second access layer to suspend searching for the MCC.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the network search method includes:

s301: and controlling the first access layer, the second access layer and the positioning module to respectively search the country code MCC.

Wherein: the positioning module comprises at least one of: a Global Positioning System (GPS) module or a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) module.

In this application, as shown in fig. 1C, a first protocol stack corresponding to a first access layer and a second protocol stack corresponding to a second access layer are independent protocol stacks, and then the first access layer and the second access layer respectively search for an MCC where an electronic device is located. The electronic device further comprises a positioning module, so that the MCC can be searched by the positioning module.

Wherein: the updating time is the time when each positioning module searches the MCC information, the updating object is a specific positioning module, and the confidence coefficient is used for explaining the reliability of the positioning information.

Since the positioning module may include various modules such as a GPS module or a WLAN module, and the network searching accuracy of each module is different, the various modules may update the system or have different network searching time, so as to obtain at least one MCC information.

It can be understood that, if the positioning module can obtain a plurality of MCC information, the updating parameters corresponding to the respective MCC information are obtained to obtain a plurality of updating parameters, and then the target MCC information is determined according to the plurality of updating parameters, so that the accuracy of determining the target MCC information can be improved.

The method and the device for determining the target MCC information according to the plurality of update parameters are not limited, and the MCC corresponding to the latest update time can be selected, the MCC corresponding to the maximum confidence coefficient can be selected, the MCC corresponding to the update object with the maximum reliability can be selected, and the like.

In one possible example, the determining the target MCC information according to the plurality of update parameters comprises: determining an evaluation value corresponding to each MCC information in the MCC information according to the update parameters to obtain a plurality of evaluation values; and determining MCC information corresponding to the maximum value of the evaluation values as the target MCC information.

The method for determining the evaluation value is not limited, the confidence value corresponding to each dimension in each updating parameter can be determined, and then the weighting is carried out on the confidence value corresponding to each dimension in each updating parameter so as to obtain the evaluation value.

For example, assume that there is first MCC information and second MCC information, wherein: the updating time of the first MCC information is 16 points and 40 minutes, the updating object is a GPS module, and the confidence coefficient is 0.8; the update time of the second MCC information is 16 o' clock and 50 minutes, the update object is a WLAN module, and the confidence coefficient is 0.7. And if the preset weights corresponding to the update time, the update object and the confidence coefficient are 0.4, 0.2 and 0.4, and the current time is 17 points, determining that the confidence value corresponding to the update time in the first MCC information is (60-20)/60 ≈ 0.67 and the evaluation value corresponding to the update time in the second MCC information is (60-10)/60 ≈ 0.83 by taking 60 minutes as a reference. If the confidence value corresponding to the GPS module is 0.9 and the WLAN module is 0.8, the evaluation value corresponding to the first MCC information is 0.67 × 0.4+0.9 × 0.2+0.8 × 0.4 ═ 0.768, and the evaluation value corresponding to the second MCC information is 0.83 × 0.4+0.8 × 0.2+0.7 ═ 0.4 ═ 0.772, so that the target MCC information is determined to be the second MCC information.

It can be understood that the evaluation values corresponding to the update parameters are calculated, and then the MCC information corresponding to the maximum value in the evaluation values is selected as the target MCC information, that is, the update parameters of the dimensions are comprehensively considered, so that the accuracy of determining the target MCC information is further improved.

S303: and controlling the first access layer and the second access layer to respectively suspend searching the MCC, and controlling the first access layer and the second access layer to respectively acquire the target MCC information.

Therefore, when the positioning module searches the target MCC information first, the first access layer and the second access layer do not need to continue searching the MCC, but continue to use the target MCC information searched by the positioning module to perform the next network searching operation, so that the network searching efficiency of the first access layer and the second access layer is improved, and the user experience is improved conveniently.

the searching unit 401 is further configured to control the first access layer and the second access layer to perform a next network searching operation based on the target MCC information.

It can be understood that the first access layer corresponding to the first subscriber identity card and the second access layer corresponding to the second subscriber identity card in the electronic device are controlled to perform MCC search for the country code, respectively, if the first access layer searches target MCC information before the second access layer, the first access layer is controlled to share the target MCC information, the second access layer is controlled to suspend searching for the MCC, the target MCC information is acquired, the first access layer and the second access layer are controlled, and network searching operation is performed in the next step based on the target MCC information, respectively. Therefore, when the first access layer searches the target MCC information, the second access layer does not need to continue searching the MCC information, but continues to use the target MCC information searched by the first access layer to perform the next network searching operation, so that the network searching efficiency of the second access layer is improved, and the user experience is improved conveniently.
