Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a service identifier display method provided in an embodiment of the present application, and is applied to an electronic device shown in fig. 1, where the electronic device supports a dual connection mode, the dual connection mode refers to that the electronic device establishes a first communication connection with a first network device and a second communication connection with a second network device, the first network device and the second network device are network devices in a first fifth generation 5G non-independent networking NSA network, the first network device is a fourth generation 4G base station eNB, an access network corresponding to the first network device is a 4G long term evolution LTE access network, the second network device is a 5G base station gNB, an access network corresponding to the second network device is a new air interface access network NR, a core network of the first 5G NSA network is a next generation core network NGC, the first network device is communicatively coupled to the NGC.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the method for displaying the service identifier includes:

s201: acquiring channel quality CQI of an NR access network;

the CQI represents the information indication of the channel quality, represents the quality of the current channel, corresponds to the signal-to-noise ratio of the channel, and has a value range of 0-31. The present application does not limit the method for acquiring the CQI, and in a possible embodiment, the acquiring the channel quality CQI of the NR access network includes: acquiring the transmission power Tx corresponding to the NR access network; and acquiring the CQI according to the Tx.

The transmission power Tx may represent network transmission performance corresponding to the NR access network. It can be understood that the channel quality CQI of the NR access network is obtained according to the transmission power Tx corresponding to the NR access network, so as to determine the network signal of the access network corresponding to the second network device.

S202: determining a service identifier adapted to the current communication state of the electronic equipment according to the CQI;

in the present application, a service identifier corresponding to an NR access network is used as second prompt information, a service identifier corresponding to a 4GLTE access network is used as first prompt information, and specific contents of the first prompt information and the second prompt information are not limited, for example: in the 4G LTE network, a service identifier corresponding to the electronic device is 4G, specifically, the electronic device may display VoLTE on a call interface, and the identifier indicates that the electronic device supports the voice service through the 4G LTE network, and specifically, transmits service data of the voice service through the G LTE network.

The application is not limited to how to determine the service identifier according to the CQI, and in a possible example, the determining the service identifier adapted to the current communication state of the electronic device according to the CQI includes: if the CQI is greater than or equal to a first threshold value, determining that the service identifier is second prompt information corresponding to the NR access network; if the CQI is less than or equal to the second threshold, determining that the service identifier is a first prompt message corresponding to the 4GLTE access network; if the CQI is larger than the second threshold and smaller than the first threshold, acquiring first signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) information corresponding to the 4GLTE access network and second SNR information corresponding to the NR access network; and determining the service identifier according to the first SNR information and the second SNR information.

The first threshold is greater than the second threshold, and the first threshold and the second threshold are not limited.

SIGNAL-to-NOISE RATIO (SNR) refers to the RATIO of SIGNAL to NOISE in an electronic device or system, and represents the SIGNAL quality of an access network.

It can be understood that when the CQI is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the indicator is used to indicate that the signal quality of the NR access network corresponding to the second network device is much higher than the 4GLTE access network corresponding to the first network device, and then the service identifier is determined to be the second prompt information of the second access network; and when the CQI is less than or equal to the second threshold, the service identifier is determined to be the first prompt message corresponding to the 4GLTE access network, where the signal quality of the NR access network corresponding to the second network device is far lower than that of the 4GLTE access network corresponding to the first network device. And when the CQI is greater than the second threshold and less than the first threshold, it is difficult to determine the signal quality between the two access networks, and then further obtain first SNR information corresponding to the 4GLTE access network and second SNR information corresponding to the NR access network, so that the signal quality between the two access networks is determined based on the first SNR information of the access network corresponding to the first network device and the SNR information of the access network corresponding to the second network device.

In one possible example, the determining the service identifier according to the first SNR information and the second SNR information includes: determining a difference between the first SNR information and the second SNR information; if the difference is greater than 0, determining that the service identifier is the first prompt message; and if the difference is less than or equal to 0, determining that the service identifier is the second prompt message.

It can be understood that the first SNR information is a signal-to-noise ratio of an access network corresponding to the first network device, and the second SNR information is a signal-to-noise ratio of an access network corresponding to the second network device, so that the access network adapted to the current communication state of the electronic device is determined according to a difference between the two signal-to-noise ratios, and the prompt information corresponding to the signal-to-noise ratio with the larger signal-to-noise ratio is used as a service identifier, and if the two signal-to-noise ratios are equal, the second prompt information corresponding to the NR access network is determined as the service identifier, so that the access network with the high signal quality is used.

In one possible example, the method further comprises: if the CQI is greater than the second threshold and less than the first threshold, acquiring a channel parameter of a channel enabled by a current service to be executed of the electronic device, where the channel parameter includes at least one of: transmission rate, signal-to-noise ratio, channel gain, noise power; determining a target CQI according to the channel parameters; and acquiring the service identifier from a preset service identifier set according to the target CQI.

The electronic device may be preset to support access to multiple different network architectures, such as a 4G LTE network, a 5G NSA network (including various subdivided network architectures), a 5G SA network, and the like, and service channels configured by the electronic device may be different under service conditions supported by different network architectures, specifically, in an operator plane, different operators may deploy mobile networks of different network architectures, and configured frequency domain resources are different, and based on this, the service identifier to be displayed may be determined by detecting differences of channels enabled by the current service to be executed by the electronic device.

It can be understood that, because different network architectures support different service channels, the required target CQI is determined according to a channel parameter corresponding to a current service to be executed by the electronic device, and then the service identifier is obtained from the preconfigured service identifier set, thereby improving the accuracy and real-time of displaying the service identifier by the electronic device.

In one possible example, the method further comprises: obtaining an average CQI corresponding to each service identifier in the service identifier set to obtain a plurality of average CQIs; determining the first threshold and the second threshold according to the target CQI and the plurality of average CQIs.

It can be understood that the first threshold and the second threshold are determined according to the target CQI determined by the channel parameter corresponding to the current service to be executed by the electronic device and the average CQI corresponding to each service identifier in each service identifier set configured in advance, so that the accuracy of determining the first threshold and the second threshold can be improved.

S203: and displaying the service identification on a display interface of the electronic equipment.

The display interface may include various interfaces related to a call function, such as a call request interface, a dialing interface, an interface during a call, or may include a parallel function interface in a call state, such as a display interface during a chat application started in the call state, a display interface after a browser application started in the call state, or may include various interfaces related to data traffic.

The application does not limit how to display the service identifier, and in one possible example, the electronic device displays the service identifier on a display interface of the electronic device, including: and the electronic equipment displays the service identification at a preset position in the display interface, wherein the preset position is matched with the network connection state display position of the electronic equipment.

The preset position is matched with the network connection state display position of the electronic device, specifically, the preset position may be adjacent to, or opposite to, or separated from the network connection state display position by a preset distance (e.g., 1mm to 150 mm), which is not limited herein. In addition, the display parameters (such as color, background color, font, size) of the service identifier may be consistent with the network connection state, or may not be consistent with the network connection state, which is not limited herein. If the font size of the service identifier can be set to be the same as the network connection state, and the background color is also the same.

It can be understood that the electronic device can display the service identifier at a preset position in the display interface, and the preset position is matched with the display position of the network connection state, so that the current communication state of the electronic device can be comprehensively presented, and the comprehensiveness of the electronic device for displaying the communication state information is improved.

In the service identifier display method shown in fig. 2, the electronic device first obtains the CQI of the NR access network, determines the service identifier adapted to the current communication state of the electronic device according to the CQI, and finally displays the service identifier on the display interface of the electronic device. Therefore, the electronic device can determine and adapt to the service identifier corresponding to the current communication state according to the access network of the second network device, for example, the first communication state displays the first service identifier, the second communication state displays the second service identifier, and the like, so that the actual communication state of the electronic device can be accurately, visually and comprehensively displayed, and the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the service identifier of the electronic device displaying the communication state can be improved.

In one possible example, before the electronic device acquires the channel quality CQI of the NR access network, the method further includes: the electronic equipment sends a service identification query request aiming at the current service to be executed to the second network equipment; receiving service identification indication information from the second network equipment, wherein the service identification indication information is confirmed by the interaction between the first network equipment and the NGC; and determining and storing the service identifier according to the service identifier indication information.

In view of that voice call and data traffic interaction are one of important functions of the electronic device, after the electronic device joins the first 5G NSA network, the electronic device may determine, through the service identifier query request, a service identifier type corresponding to the voice service and the data service supported by the current network architecture, that is, a service identifier query mechanism is agreed at a protocol level, and in addition, the service identifier information in the network architecture may exist on the network side.

In a specific implementation, the electronic device may send a service identifier query request through a Control Channel (such as a Common Control Channel (CCCH) or a Dedicated Control Channel (DCCH)) between the electronic device and the base station, and the NGC receives the service identifier query request from the electronic device, generates service identifier indication information according to service identifiers of services preconfigured at the local terminal, and sends the service identifier indication information to the electronic device through the base station.

It can be understood that the electronic device can quickly and accurately determine the service identifier of the current service to be executed through the query mechanism, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of displaying the service identifier.

In one possible example, before the electronic device obtains the channel quality CQI for the NR access network, the method further comprises: when the electronic device detects a boot event, executing a boot registration process, and receiving network description information of the first 5G NSA network from the second network device, where the network description information includes the type and capability of the NGC; inquiring a pre-stored service identification set by taking the network description information as an inquiry identification to obtain a service identification corresponding to the network description information of the first 5G NSA network, wherein the service identification set comprises the corresponding relation between the network description information and each service identification; and determining and storing the inquired service identification.

Wherein the service identification set may include the following identifications: 4G VoLTE, VoNR. The 4G VoLTE may be used to indicate that the service is supported by eNB and EPC, or gNB, eNB and EPC, the VoLTE may be used to indicate that the service is supported by eNB and NG Core (NGC for short), or gNB and EPC, or gNB, NGC and EPC, and the VoNR indicates that the IMS voice service is supported by 5G access network equipment and Core network NG Core (NGC for short).

In a specific implementation, when the electronic device executes a power-on registration procedure, the network side may send the type and capability of the core network device of the network to the electronic device after determining the type, the currently camped cell, and the location of the base station accessed by the electronic device, that is, after determining that the electronic device is a first 5G NSA network, where the type includes EPC and/or NGC, and the capability includes whether to support voice service or data service. In addition, the service identifier set includes a corresponding relationship between the network description information and the service identifier, and the corresponding relationship may specifically be the following corresponding relationship: the corresponding relation between { EPC, voice service support } and service identification 4G VoLTE, { EPC + NGC, NGC do not support voice service, EPC supports voice service } and service identification VoLTE, { NGC, voice service support } and service identification VoNR, etc.

It can be understood that the electronic device can quickly complete the configuration of the service identifier of each service at the stage of the startup registration process, so that in the subsequent process of starting the target service, the service identifier can be displayed directly according to the preconfigured service identifier generally under the condition that the accessed service operator is not changed, and the efficiency and accuracy of displaying the service identifier by the electronic device are improved.

In one possible example, the electronic device displays the service identifier on a display interface of the electronic device, including: and the electronic equipment switches the network connection state identifier into the service identifier on the display interface.

In one possible example, the electronic device displays the service identifier on a display interface of the electronic device, including: the electronic equipment determines a service interface of the current service to be executed; inquiring the corresponding relation between a preset service interface and a service identifier display position, determining a target display position corresponding to the service interface, and displaying the service identifier at the target display position.

In specific implementation, the preset position of the electronic device may be in different positions for different types of service interfaces, for example, for a call state interface, the service identifier may be displayed at an upper left corner of the interface, for a comprehensive application interface presented after starting other applications in a call state, the service identifier may be displayed at an upper middle position of the comprehensive application interface, and for a call interface, the service identifier may be displayed near a contact information display position of the call interface, and so on.

As can be seen, in this example, the electronic device can flexibly adjust and adapt to the service mark display position of the current service interface, specifically for the service interface of each service, so as to improve the flexibility and intelligence of the electronic device in displaying the service mark.

In one possible example, the method further comprises: and the electronic equipment transmits the service data of the current service to be executed through the first 5G NSA network.

The service data of the current service to be executed specifically includes voice data or traffic data of a user.

As can be seen, in this example, the electronic device transmits the service data of the current service to be executed through the first 5G NSA network, and the service data is consistent with the network architecture associated with the currently displayed service identifier, so as to improve the consistency of the service identifier displayed by the electronic device.

In one possible example, the transmitting, by the electronic device, service data of the current service to be executed through the first 5G NSA network includes: transmitting service data of the current service to be executed with the EPC through the second communication connection; or, the service data of the current service to be executed is transmitted with the EPC through the first communication connection.

In a specific implementation, the service data may be transferred from the second communication connection to the first communication connection, and then interact with the EPC, or directly interact with the EPC through the first communication connection according to an actual situation.

As can be seen, in this example, since the electronic device maintains the dual connection mode, the transmission mode of the service data can be flexibly selected based on the channel quality, and the data transmission efficiency and stability are improved.
