Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present application and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
An embodiment of the present application provides an antenna control method, and specifically, please refer to fig. 1, where fig. 1 is a schematic flowchart of the antenna control method provided in the embodiment of the present application. The antenna control method is applied to the electronic device, and specifically may include:
and 101, when the display screen is shielded, determining the shielded display area of the display screen as a target area.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The electronic device comprises a display screen 120, the displayed screen 120 comprising a plurality of display areas 122, each display area 122 having an antenna 140 disposed therein. The antenna 140 disposed in the display area may be a transparent antenna, and the transparent antenna may be disposed inside the display screen 120, and compared with the other positions of the electronic device 10, the transparent antenna may obtain a larger clearance area, and may not be affected by a battery, a power amplifier, a metal frame, and the like in the electronic device 10. The antennas 140 are arranged in different display areas 122 of the display screen 120, more antennas 140 can be arranged, and each display area 122 in the plurality of display areas 122 is provided with the antenna 140, so that when the display screen 120 is shielded, the antennas 140 of the display screen 120 are shielded at the same time, and the overall antenna performance is improved.
There are many ways to identify that the display screen is occluded. For example, whether the display screen is occluded may be determined by a touch position of the display screen. If the display screen identifies the touch instruction, it can be determined that the display screen is blocked. Whether the display screen is blocked or not can be determined by detecting the signal strength of the antenna. If the detected signal strength of the antenna in the display screen is obviously reduced, it can be determined that the display screen is blocked. The identification can also be performed through sensors (such as pressure sensors and touch sensors) of the electronic equipment frame. If the sensor of the display screen frame recognizes that the display screen is held, it can be determined that the display screen is blocked. It can also be identified by an electronic device ranging sensor or an infrared sensor. If the distance measuring sensor or the infrared sensor identifies that the distance between the distance measuring sensor or the infrared sensor and the obstacle is smaller than the distance threshold value, it can be determined that the display screen is blocked. The structure that the discernment display screen was sheltered from is not injectd to this application embodiment, and this application embodiment can select suitable discernment display screen as required by the structure that shelters from, and the structure that can discern the display screen and be sheltered from all is in the protective scope of this application.
When the fact that the display screen is shielded is recognized, the fact that the display area of the shielded display screen is the target area can be determined. For example, a display area where the touch instruction is located may be determined as a target area, a display area where the signal intensity of the antenna is reduced by more than a certain intensity threshold may be determined as a target area, and all display areas where the distance from the external obstacle is less than a distance threshold may be determined as target areas.
And 102, determining the antenna arranged in the target area as a first antenna.
And after the target area is obtained, taking the antenna arranged in the target area as a first antenna to distinguish the antenna from other antennas in the non-shielded display area. Since the target area is the obscured display area, the first antenna may be understood as an obscured antenna.
103, determining whether a second antenna with the same function as the first antenna is provided, wherein the second antenna and the first antenna are positioned in different display areas of the display screen.
After the first antenna is obtained, whether a second antenna with the same function as the first antenna exists is determined. If the first antenna and the second antenna are both antennas for transmitting 4G signals, 5G signals, wifi signals, Bluetooth signals, GPS signals and NFC signals, and whether the first antenna and the second antenna with the same functions are located in different display areas is further determined.
And 104, if so, reducing the working power of the first antenna or stopping transmitting the radio frequency signal through the first antenna, and transmitting the radio frequency signal through the second antenna.
If the second antenna meets the above conditions, because the second antenna has the same function as the first antenna and is not shielded, the working power of the first antenna can be reduced, or the radio frequency signal transmission through the first antenna is stopped, namely the first antenna is closed, and the radio frequency signal is transmitted through the second antenna, so that the radio frequency signal can be normally transmitted, the influence of the antenna performance caused by shielding of the display screen is reduced or eliminated, and the stability of the overall antenna performance of the electronic device is improved.
The plurality of display areas may be several display areas equally divided by the display screen, for example, the display screen is equally divided into 6, 8, 10, 12 display areas, and the like. One or more transparent antennas may be provided within each display area as desired. The same number of antennas may be disposed in different display areas, or different numbers of antennas may be disposed. Each antenna may include one or more antenna elements as desired.
It is understood that the main body for executing the above steps may be a processor in the electronic device, and the processor may be a main chip, or may be other chips such as a radio frequency chip, a display chip, and the like. For example, the processor starts a background process a to detect whether each display area is blocked in real time, and if a certain display area is blocked, starts another background process B to execute the operation of turning off or reducing the power of the first antenna corresponding to the blocked display area, turns off or reduces the transmission power of the first antenna, and increases the transmission power of the second antenna having the same function as the first antenna in the other display areas.
An embodiment of the present application further provides an antenna control method, and specifically please refer to fig. 3, where fig. 3 is another schematic flow diagram of the antenna control method provided in the embodiment of the present application. The antenna control method is applied to the electronic device, and specifically may include:
and 201, when the display screen detects a pressing operation, determining that a display area corresponding to the pressing operation is a target area.
The structure of the electronic device may adopt the structure of the electronic device in the above embodiments, and details are not described herein.
The display screen is a touch display screen, the touch display screen can detect pressing operation, when the display screen detects the pressing operation, a display area corresponding to the pressing operation can be determined, and the display area is used as a target area.
202, the duration of the pressing operation detected by the target area is acquired.
After the target area is obtained, the duration of the pressing operation detected by the target area may be obtained. The pressing operation may be a single-click operation, a double-click operation, a sliding operation, or the like.
And 203, if the duration is greater than the preset duration threshold, determining that the display screen is blocked, and determining that the display area corresponding to the pressing operation is the target area.
If the duration of the pressing operation detected in the target area is greater than the preset duration threshold, it can be determined that the display screen is shielded, and if the user presses the display screen to achieve touch operation, the user shields the display screen. When the display screen is determined to be blocked, the display area corresponding to the pressing operation can be determined as the target area. The preset time threshold may be set as required, such as 3 seconds, 5 seconds, and the like.
And 204, determining the antenna arranged in the target area as a first antenna.
And after the target area is obtained, taking the antenna arranged in the target area as a first antenna to distinguish the antenna from other antennas in the non-shielded display area. Since the target area is the obscured display area, the first antenna may be understood as an obscured antenna.
A determination is made as to whether there is a second antenna that functions the same as the first antenna and that is located in a different display area of the display screen than the first antenna 205.
After the first antenna is obtained, whether a second antenna with the same function as the first antenna exists is determined. If the first antenna and the second antenna are both antennas for transmitting 4G signals, 5G signals, wifi signals, Bluetooth signals, GPS signals and NFC signals, and whether the first antenna and the second antenna with the same functions are located in different display areas is further determined. The function of the antennas of different display areas may also be different. For example, at least one of the element size, length, width, etc. of the antenna of different display areas may be set to be different so as to be suitable for transmission and reception of different frequencies.
And 206, if so, reducing the working power of the first antenna or stopping transmitting the radio frequency signal through the first antenna, and transmitting the radio frequency signal through the second antenna.
If the second antenna meets the above conditions, because the second antenna has the same function as the first antenna and is not shielded, the working power of the first antenna can be reduced, or the radio frequency signal transmission through the first antenna is stopped, namely the first antenna is closed, and the radio frequency signal is transmitted through the second antenna, so that the radio frequency signal can be normally transmitted, the influence of the antenna performance caused by shielding of the display screen is reduced or eliminated, and the stability of the overall antenna performance of the electronic device is improved.
The plurality of display areas may be several display areas equally divided by the display screen, for example, the display screen is equally divided into 6, 8, 10, 12 display areas, and the like. One or more transparent antennas may be provided within each display area as desired. The same number of antennas may be disposed in different display areas, or different numbers of antennas may be disposed. Each antenna may include one or more antenna elements as desired.
It is understood that the main body for executing the above steps may be a processor in the electronic device, and the processor may be a main chip, or may be other chips such as a radio frequency chip, a display chip, and the like.
Wherein transmitting the radio frequency signal through the second antenna may include: and increasing the working power of the second antenna, and transmitting the radio-frequency signal through the second antenna after the working power is increased. The radio-frequency signal can be better transmitted by increasing the power of the second antenna which is not shielded and transmitting the radio-frequency signal by using the second antenna with increased working power. The working power of the first antenna can be reduced at the same time, and even the first antenna is suspended to reduce the power consumption.
It will be appreciated that the second antenna may be in a normal operating state or in an inoperative state before the operating power is increased. When the second antenna is in a non-working state before the working power is increased, and after the working power of the second antenna is increased, the radio-frequency signal transmitted by the original first antenna can be transmitted through the second antenna, and the radio-frequency signal transmission of the electronic equipment is not influenced. When the second antenna is in a normal working state before the working power is increased, and after the working power of the second antenna is increased, the second antenna can be changed from a common working mode to a carrier aggregation working mode, and the function of the second antenna in the carrier aggregation working mode can achieve the functions of the original first antenna and the original second antenna, namely the capability of the second antenna in the carrier aggregation working mode for transmitting radio-frequency signals is not less than the capability of the first antenna and the second antenna in the common working mode for transmitting radio-frequency signals. For example, the time for the second antenna in the carrier aggregation operation mode to transmit a file may be equal to or less than the time for the first antenna and the second antenna in the normal operation mode to simultaneously transmit the file. The second antenna in the carrier aggregation mode may combine signals to be transmitted by the original first antenna and the original second antenna, and then transmit the combined signals through the second antenna. For example, a first antenna in the normal operating mode transmits a first file in a first frequency band, a second antenna in the normal operating mode transmits a second file in a second frequency band, and a second antenna in the carrier aggregation operating mode may simultaneously transmit the first file in the first frequency band and the second file in the second frequency band.
The antenna control method may further include: when the display screen is not shielded, the first antenna and the second antenna can respectively transmit radio frequency signals, and the first antenna and the second antenna can also be matched with each other to transmit radio frequency signals. The first antenna and the second antenna can simultaneously transmit antenna signals of the same frequency band. For example, the electronic device may download the same file via the first antenna and the second antenna. Specifically, the first antenna and the second antenna can download the same data, thereby improving the reliability of the data. The first antenna and the second antenna can download different data of the same file, so that the downloading speed is improved. The first antenna and the second antenna may also transmit radio frequency signals by way of electromagnetic coupling.
The first antenna and the second antenna can be used for transmitting radio frequency signals in a matching mode in other modes. Illustratively, the first antenna and the second antenna form a primary diversity antenna for cooperation when the display screen is unobstructed. Specifically, the first antenna is used as a main set antenna, the second antenna is used as a diversity antenna, and the main set antenna and the diversity antenna work in a matched mode. When the display screen is shielded, if the main set antenna, namely the first antenna, is shielded and the diversity antenna, namely the second antenna, is not shielded, the main set antenna and the diversity antenna can be exchanged. Specifically, the unblocked diversity antenna is set as the target antenna, the target antenna is set as the main set antenna, and the blocked main set antenna is changed into the diversity antenna. And the working power of the main set antenna and the diversity antenna can be changed after adjustment. For example, the operating power of the unobstructed diversity antenna is increased after it becomes the primary diversity antenna. The shielded main set antenna becomes a diversity antenna, and the working power of the diversity antenna is reduced. It will be appreciated that when the display screen is unobstructed, the operating power of the first antenna, which is the main set antenna, may be greater than or equal to the operating power of the second antenna, which is the diversity antenna.
After the radio frequency signal transmission through the first antenna is stopped, the antenna control method may further include: if the first antenna and the antennas of other display areas form a multiple-in-multiple-out (MIMO) antenna set, the second antenna replaces the first antenna and forms the MIMO antenna set with the antennas of other display areas. Before the display screen is shielded, if the first antenna and the antennas of other display areas form the multiple-input multiple-output antenna group, when the first antenna is shielded, the first antenna can be replaced by the second antenna which is not shielded, so that the second antenna and the antennas of other display areas form a new multiple-input multiple-output antenna group. Each antenna in the newly formed multi-input multi-output antenna group is not shielded, and the multi-input multi-output antenna group can obtain better antenna performance. And the antennas of the other display areas are the antennas of the shielded display areas.
An electronic device is further provided in the embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 4 specifically, and fig. 4 is a second structural schematic diagram of the electronic device provided in the embodiment of the present application. The electronic device 10 includes a display screen 120 and a processor 160. The display screen 120 includes a plurality of display areas 122, and an antenna 140 is disposed in each display area 122. The processor 160 is configured to determine, when the display screen 120 is occluded, the occluded display area 122 of the display screen 120 as the target area 1222; determining the antenna 140 disposed within the target area 1222 to be the first antenna 142; determining whether there is a second antenna 144 that functions the same as the first antenna 142, and the second antenna 144 is located in a different display area 122 of the display screen 120 than the first antenna 142; and if so, reducing the operating power of the first antenna 142 or stopping the transmission of the radio frequency signal through the first antenna 142, and transmitting the radio frequency signal through the second antenna 144.
The antenna 140 disposed in the display area 122 may be a transparent antenna 140, and the transparent antenna 140 may be disposed inside the display screen 120, and compared with the other positions of the electronic device 10, the transparent antenna 140 may obtain a larger clearance area, and may not be affected by a battery, a power amplifier, a metal frame, and the like in the electronic device 10. The antennas 140 are arranged in different display areas 122 of the display screen 120, more antennas 140 can be arranged, and each display area 122 in the plurality of display areas 122 is provided with the antenna 140, so that when the display screen 120 is shielded, the antennas 140 of the display screen 120 are shielded at the same time, and the performance of the whole antenna 140 is improved. Because the second antenna 144 has the same function as the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 is not shielded, the operating power of the first antenna 142 can be reduced, or the first antenna 142 is turned off when the transmission of the radio frequency signal through the first antenna 142 is stopped, and the radio frequency signal is transmitted through the second antenna 144, so that the normal transmission of the radio frequency signal is ensured, the influence of the shielding of the display screen 120 on the performance of the antenna 140 is reduced or eliminated, and the stability of the performance of the whole antenna 140 of the electronic device 10 is improved.
The plurality of display areas 122 may be several display areas 122 equally divided from the display screen 120, for example, the display screen 120 equally divided into 6, 8, 10, 12 display areas 122. One or more transparent antennas 140 may be disposed within each display area 122 as desired. The plurality of display areas 122 may also be several display areas 122 that are not equally divided across the display screen 120. The same number of antennas 140 may be disposed in different display areas 122, or different numbers of antennas 140 may be disposed, in this embodiment, the number and the type of the antennas 140 in the display areas 122 are not limited, and each display area 122 may be disposed with a corresponding number and a corresponding type of antennas 140 as needed. Each antenna 140 may include one or more antenna 140 elements as desired.
There are many ways to identify that the display screen is blocked and determine the blocked target area, which may specifically refer to the ways to identify that the display screen is blocked and determine the blocked target area in the above embodiments, and details are not described herein.
The processor 160 is further configured to increase the operating power of the second antenna 144, and transmit the radio frequency signal through the second antenna 144 after increasing the operating power. The rf signal can be better transmitted by increasing the power of the second antenna 144 that is not shielded and transmitting the rf signal with the second antenna 144 that has increased operating power. It is also possible to simultaneously reduce the operating power of the first antenna 142 and even suspend the operation of the first antenna 142, thereby reducing power consumption.
It will be appreciated that the second antenna 144 may be in a normal operating state or in an inoperative state prior to increasing the operating power. When the second antenna 144 is in an inactive state before the operating power is increased, and after the operating power of the second antenna 144 is increased, the processor 160 may transfer the radio frequency signal transmitted by the first antenna 142 to be transmitted through the second antenna 144, without affecting the radio frequency signal transmission of the electronic device 10. When the second antenna 144 is in a normal operating state before the operating power is increased, and after the operating power of the second antenna 144 is increased, the processor 160 may change the second antenna 144 from a normal operating mode to a carrier aggregation operating mode, where the function of the second antenna 144 in the carrier aggregation operating mode may reach the functions of the original first antenna 142 and the original second antenna 144, that is, the capability of the second antenna 144 in the carrier aggregation operating mode to transmit radio frequency signals is not less than the capability of the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 in the normal operating mode to transmit radio frequency signals. For example, the time for the second antenna 144 in the carrier aggregation operation mode to transmit a file may be equal to or less than the time for the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 in the normal operation mode to simultaneously transmit the file. The second antenna 144 in the carrier aggregation mode may combine signals to be transmitted from the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144, and then transmit the combined signals through the second antenna 144. For example, the first antenna 142 in the normal operation mode transmits a first file in the first frequency band, the second antenna 144 in the normal operation mode transmits a second file in the second frequency band, and the second antenna 144 in the carrier aggregation operation mode may simultaneously transmit the first file in the first frequency band and the second file in the second frequency band.
When the display screen 120 is not shielded, the processor 160 may be further configured to control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to transmit radio frequency signals, respectively, or control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to transmit radio frequency signals in a matching manner. The processor 160 may control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to simultaneously transmit the antenna 140 signals of the same frequency band. For example, the processor 160 may control the downloading of the same file via the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144. Specifically, the processor 160 may control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to download the same data, thereby improving the reliability of the data. The processor 160 may also control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to download different data of the same file, thereby increasing the download rate.
The processor 160 may control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to transmit the radio frequency signal by way of electromagnetic coupling.
The first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 may cooperate to transmit radio frequency signals in other manners. Illustratively, when the display screen 120 is not obscured, the processor 160 may control the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 to form a main diversity antenna to work cooperatively. Specifically, the processor 160 controls the first antenna 142 as the main set antenna 140, controls the second antenna 144 as the diversity antenna 140, and cooperates with the main set antenna 140 and the diversity antenna 140. When the display screen 120 is obscured, if the main set antenna 140, i.e., the first antenna 142, is obscured and the diversity antenna 140, i.e., the second antenna 144, is not obscured, the main set antenna 140 and the diversity antenna 140 may be reversed. Specifically, the unblocked diversity antenna 140 is set as the target antenna 140, the target antenna 140 is set as the main set antenna 140, and the blocked main set antenna 140 is changed to the diversity antenna 140. Wherein the operating power of the main set antenna 140 and the diversity antenna 140 may also be changed after the adjustment. For example, the operating power of the unobstructed diversity antenna 140 is increased after it becomes the main diversity antenna 140. The blocked primary set of antennas 140 becomes a diversity antenna 140, reducing its operating power. It will be appreciated that the operating power of the first antenna 142 as the main set antenna 140 may be greater than or equal to the operating power of the second antenna 144 as the diversity antenna 140 when the display screen 120 is unobstructed.
If the first antenna 142 and the antennas 140 of the other display areas 122 form a multi-in multi-out (MIMO) antenna group, the processor 160 may replace the first antenna 142 with the second antenna 144 and form a MIMO antenna group with the antennas 140 of the other display areas 122. Before the display screen 120 is shielded, if the first antenna 142 and the antennas 140 of the other display areas 122 form a mimo antenna set, when the first antenna 142 is shielded, the processor 160 may replace the first antenna 142 with the second antenna 144 that is not shielded, so that the second antenna 144 and the antennas 140 of the other display areas 122 form a new mimo antenna set. Each antenna 140 in the newly formed mimo antenna set is not shielded, and the mimo antenna set can obtain better performance of the antenna 140. The antennas 140 of the other display areas 122 are the antennas 140 of the blocked display areas 122.
Since the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 have the same function and the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 have similar structures, the display region 122 in which the first antenna 142 is provided and the display region 122 in which the second antenna 144 is provided are disposed adjacent to each other, and the first antenna 142 and the second antenna 144 can be conveniently disposed. The display area 122 where the first antenna 142 is disposed and the display area 122 where the second antenna 144 is disposed may also be disposed in other ways. The display area where the first antenna is disposed and the display area where the second antenna is disposed may be disposed at intervals to prevent the first antenna and the second antenna from being simultaneously shielded.
