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 specific embodiments described herein are illustrative of the relevant application and are not limiting of the application. It should be noted that, for the convenience of description, only the parts related to the related applications are shown in the drawings.

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing embodiments of the present application only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

In the following description, reference is made to "some embodiments" which describe a subset of all possible embodiments, but it is understood that "some embodiments" may be the same subset or different subsets of all possible embodiments, and may be combined with each other without conflict. It should also be noted that reference to the terms "first \ second \ third" in the embodiments of the present application is only used for distinguishing similar objects and does not represent a specific ordering for the objects, and it should be understood that "first \ second \ third" may be interchanged with a specific order or sequence where possible so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than that shown or described herein.

Non-independent networking, NSA, refers to deployment of a 5G network using the existing fourth generation mobile communication technology (4G) infrastructure, where the 5G carriers based on the NSA architecture only carry user data and their control signaling is still transmitted through the 4G network. Namely, the NSA provides support for 5G signals by integrating 5G base stations and 4G base stations. Its advantages are high speed, and less investment in building base station.

The independent networking SA only uses the 5G base station to provide 5G network signals, so that the construction cost is high, and the base station construction progress is slow, but in the SA mode, a user (5G terminal) accesses the 5G base station and the 5G core network, and can better exert the advantageous characteristics of 5G, such as ultra-low delay and high rate.

Under the scenes of the existing network configuration and chip platform and general basic protocols, especially under a service state, the power consumption of the chip platform SA is larger; and in the comprehensive scene, the power consumption sequences in three network modes are NSA > SA > LTE. At present, under the condition of a certain electric quantity level of an intelligent terminal, in some special scenes, such as scenes of browsing a webpage and the like with low speed, long-term use of a 5G network can cause serious electricity consumption of a mobile phone, so that endurance is shortened, and user experience is influenced.

Therefore, in some scenarios, the problem of increasing the power consumption of the terminal device may exist by dynamically controlling the switching among the NSA, the SA, and the LTE in the connection state, and the intelligence of the terminal device is reduced, that is, the intelligence of the existing network connection control method is poor.

In order to solve the above problem, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may comprehensively and comprehensively determine whether to switch from the LTE connection state to the SA connection state based on the detected real-time state parameter, so that automatic switching from the LTE connection state to the SA connection state may be effectively reduced, and the intelligence of controlling network connection is improved.

Specifically, according to the network connection control method provided by the application, the terminal device can configure different threshold values through the identification of different scenes, and select to temporarily close the measurement and report of the NR in the LTE connection state, so that the ue is not automatically switched to the SA connection state, the switching from LTE to SA in the LTE connection state can be effectively reduced, the duration in the SA connection state is further reduced, and the power consumption of the terminal device is reduced.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, fig. 1 is a schematic view of an application scenario in which a cell resides, and as shown in fig. 1, the network connection control method provided in the present application may be applied to a terminal device, where a communication connection is established between the terminal device and a network device. Optionally, the terminal device may establish a communication connection with the network device through a fourth generation, a fifth generation, and other mobile communication technologies, and a communication connection manner of the terminal device and the network device is not limited in this embodiment of the application.

In general, a plurality of network devices may exist near a terminal device, the terminal device may select a cell as a serving cell (may also be referred to as a "camping cell") according to a service quality value (such as a signal quality) of a cell in which each network device is located, the service quality values of the cells in which different network devices are located may differ, and the terminal device should camp in a cell with a better service quality value. As shown in fig. 1, it is assumed that there are three network devices, which are a network device 1, a network device 2, and a network device 3, respectively, and the terminal device resides in a cell 1 where the network device 1 is located, where the cell 1 is a serving cell of the terminal device, and both the cell 2 where the network device 2 is located and the cell 3 where the network device 3 is located are adjacent to the cell 1, that is, the cell 2 and the cell 3 are adjacent cells (also referred to as "neighbor cells") of the cell 1.

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.

An embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling network connection, and fig. 2 is a schematic view illustrating an implementation flow of the method for controlling network connection provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 2, in the embodiment of the present application, a method for controlling network connection by a terminal device may include the following steps:

step 101, when the terminal device is in a first connection state, if a first preset condition is met, prohibiting the terminal device from measuring a signal of a cell of a second network system in the first connection state to prevent the terminal device from being switched from the first connection state to a second connection state, where the first connection state is a connection state in the cell of the first network system, the second connection state is a connection state in the cell of the second network system, and the cell of the first network system and the cell of the second network system are cells of different network systems.

In an embodiment of the present application, if the network connection state of the terminal device is the first connection state, the terminal device may further determine whether a first preset condition is satisfied, and if the first preset condition is satisfied, the terminal device may select to prohibit the terminal device from performing signal measurement on a cell of a second network system in the first connection state, so as to prevent the terminal device from being switched from the first connection state to the second connection state, where the first connection state is a connection state in the cell of the first network system, the second connection state is a connection state in the cell of the second network system, and the cell of the first network system and the cell of the second network system are cells of different network systems.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may perform real-time detection on the state parameter, obtain a real-time state parameter corresponding to the terminal device, and then determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the real-time state parameter.

It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may be referred to as a User Equipment (UE). The Terminal device may be a Personal Communication Service (PCS) phone, a cordless phone, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a Wireless Local Loop (WLL) Station, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or the like, and may also be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a palm computer, a Mobile Station (MS), a Mobile Terminal (Mobile Terminal), or the like, and the Terminal device may communicate with one or more Network devices through a Radio Access Network (RAN). The terminal equipment may be, for example, a mobile telephone (or so-called "cellular" telephone) or a computer with terminal equipment, etc., and may also be, for example, a portable, pocket, hand-held, computer-included, or vehicle-mounted mobile device that exchanges voice and/or data with the radio access network. The terminal device may also be a handheld device with a wireless communication function, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, an in-vehicle device, a wearable device, a terminal device in a network evolving in the future, and the like, and the implementation of the present application is not limited.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first connection state and the second connection state may be any two different connection states among multiple connection states, such as an LTE connection state, an SA connection state, and an NSA connection state. Correspondingly, in the present application, the first network type cell and the second network type cell may be any two different cells among multiple cells such as an LTE cell, an SA cell, and an NSA cell. For example, the first connection state may be an LTE connection state, the first network system cell may be an LTE cell, the second connection state may be an SA connection state, and the second network system cell may be an SA cell.

It can be understood that, in the present application, the LTE connection state of the terminal device may represent that the terminal device is camped in an LTE cell and is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection state; the SA connection state of the terminal device may represent that the terminal device resides in an SA cell and is in an RRC connection state; the NSA connected state of the terminal device may indicate that the terminal device is camped on the NSA cell and is in an RRC connected state.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, the real-time state parameter detected and obtained by the terminal device may determine the real-time state of the terminal device, or may determine the network real-time state of the cell in which the terminal device is located.

Illustratively, in the present application, the real-time status parameter detected and obtained by the terminal device includes at least one parameter of a plurality of parameters, such as a network status parameter, a screen status, an electric quantity, a temperature, a network transmission quality, an application identifier, location information, a network identifier, and an operating status.

Specifically, in the present application, the network state parameters may include a transmission rate characterizing a transmission (Tx) state and a reception rate characterizing a reception (Receive) state; the screen state can represent the on-off condition of a display screen configured by the terminal device, and can include a screen off state and a screen on state; the electric quantity is the current residual electric quantity of the terminal equipment; the temperature can be the whole temperature of the terminal equipment; the network transmission Quality may represent the network service Quality of the current cell, and may include Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP), reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ), and the like; the application identifier may determine an application that the terminal device is running; the location information is a specific location where the terminal device is currently located, for example, longitude and latitude obtained by the terminal device through a Global Positioning System (GPS); the network identification may be a specific network identification of the currently camped cell, such as BWP (Bandwidth Part) configured by the network and representing a subset of the total Bandwidth of the cell; the operation state may represent an operation state of the terminal device, for example, the current operation state of the terminal device is a low power consumption mode (Doze mode) or a deep sleep mode.

That is to say, in the present application, the determining whether the real-time status parameter of the terminal device used when the first preset condition is met may include: the screen state, the network signal, the power, the application identifier (whether the running application belongs to APP black list), location information, specific network identifier such as BWP of network configuration, and the state of the terminal device such as Doze, deep sleep, etc.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal device is in the first connection state, after detecting the real-time status parameter, the terminal device may determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the real-time status parameter.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first preset condition may be used to determine whether to perform handover of a network connection state, that is, may be used to determine whether to perform handover of a camped cell.

Specifically, in the present application, if the terminal device does not satisfy the first preset condition, the terminal device may allow the network connection state to be switched, that is, the terminal device is allowed to measure the signal of the second network type cell in the first connection state; correspondingly, if the terminal device meets the first preset condition, the terminal device does not allow the switching processing of the network connection state, that is, the terminal device is prohibited from measuring the signal of the cell of the second network system in the first connection state.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, the real-time status parameter detected by the terminal device may include at least one of a plurality of parameters, such as a network status parameter, a screen status, an electric quantity, a temperature, a network transmission quality, an application identifier, location information, a network identifier, and an operation status, so that when it is determined according to the real-time status parameter whether the first preset condition is satisfied, the terminal device may perform comprehensive consideration and determination on one or more of the plurality of parameters, and finally determine whether to allow switching of the network connection status, that is, determine whether to allow the terminal device to measure the signal of the second network type cell in the first connection status.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, since the terminal device determines whether the first preset condition is satisfied according to the corresponding real-time status parameter, the obtained determination result corresponds to the real-time status of the terminal device and/or the network real-time status of the cell in which the terminal device is located.

For example, in the present application, if the first connection state of the terminal device is the LTE connection state, and the electric quantity in the real-time status parameter of the terminal device is lower than the preset electric quantity threshold, it may be considered that the terminal device is more suitable for being in the LTE network mode with smaller power consumption, and therefore it may be determined that the first preset condition is satisfied, and the network connection state is not switched, that is, the terminal device prohibits switching from the LTE connection state to the NSA connection state or the SA connection state with larger power consumption.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, after determining whether the first preset condition is satisfied, if it is determined that the first preset condition is satisfied, the terminal device prohibits the signal measurement of the second network type cell in the first connection state, so that the terminal device may be prevented from switching from the first connection state to the second connection state.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the first preset condition is satisfied based on the real-time status parameter corresponding to the terminal device, the terminal device may prohibit switching of the network connection status, that is, the terminal device continues to maintain the network connection status as the first connection status. Accordingly, the terminal device may choose to prohibit the terminal device from measuring the signal of the cell of the second network system in the first connection state, and then may not report the measurement information obtained by the signal measurement processing to the network device, so that the terminal device may avoid the switching processing of the network connection state due to the switching instruction issued by the network device, that is, the switching from the first connection state to the second connection state is prevented.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the first preset condition is met based on the real-time status parameter corresponding to the terminal device, the terminal device may prohibit switching of the network connection status, that is, the terminal device continues to maintain the network connection status as the first connection status. Accordingly, the terminal device may perform signal measurement on the cell of the second network system in the first connection state, but prohibit reporting of measurement information obtained by the signal measurement processing to the network device, that is, allow performing signal measurement on the cell of the second network system in the first connection state but prohibit reporting, so as to avoid switching processing of the network connection state by the terminal device due to a switching instruction issued by the network device, that is, prevent switching from the first connection state to the second connection state.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the terminal device meets the first preset condition, the terminal device may choose to prohibit actively measuring the neighboring cell signal, and/or prohibit reporting the obtained measurement information to the network device, so as to prevent the network device from issuing a switching instruction to switch the terminal device from the first connection state to the second connection state.

Fig. 3 is a schematic view of a second implementation flow of a method for controlling network connection according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 3, in the embodiment of the present application, the method for controlling network connection by a terminal device may further include the following steps:

step 102, when the terminal device is in the first connection state, if it is determined that the first preset condition is not satisfied, allowing the terminal device to measure the signal of the second network type cell in the first connection state to obtain measurement information.

In the embodiment of the present application, if the network connection state of the terminal device is the first connection state, the terminal device may further determine whether the first preset condition is satisfied, and if the first preset condition is not satisfied, the terminal device may select to allow signal measurement on the second network type cell in the first connection state, so as to obtain the measurement information.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the first preset condition is not met based on the real-time status parameter corresponding to the terminal device, the terminal device may allow the network connection status to be switched. Accordingly, the terminal device may perform signal measurement on the cell of the second network type in the first connection state, and obtain corresponding measurement information.

And step 103, reporting the measurement information to the network equipment.

In the embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the first preset condition is not satisfied, the terminal device may report the measurement information to the corresponding network device after allowing the terminal device to measure the signal of the cell of the second network system in the first connection state to obtain the measurement information.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the first preset condition is not met based on the real-time status parameter corresponding to the terminal device, the terminal device may allow the network connection status to be switched. Accordingly, the terminal device may report the measurement information to the network device after obtaining the corresponding measurement information by performing the signal measurement on the cell of the second network system in the first connection state.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, in order to ensure that the terminal device can always reside in a cell with relatively good service quality, the network device needs the terminal device to report measurement information, such as reference signal received power RSRP, reference signal received quality RSRQ, and the like, obtained after performing signal measurement on the cell of the second network standard in the first connection state.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, when reporting the measurement information to the network device, the terminal device may select to perform periodic reporting or event-triggered reporting. The periodic reporting is configured by network equipment, and the terminal equipment directly reports the measured measurement information; the event triggered reporting can be divided into events of the same frequency system and events among different systems.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device is a device for providing a wireless communication function for the terminal device, and includes but is not limited to: an evolved Node B (eNB or e-NodeB) in a Long-Term Evolution (Long-Term Evolution, LTE) system, a New air interface (NR) system or an authorized-Assisted Access Long-Term Evolution (LAA-LTE) system, a macro Base Station, a micro Base Station (also referred to as a "small Base Station"), a pico Base Station, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS), a Base Band Unit (BBU), an Access Point (Access Point, AP), a Transmission Point (TP), a New generation Node B (g-NodeB), and the like.

Fig. 4 is a third schematic view of an implementation flow of a method for controlling network connection according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 4, in the embodiment of the present application, after reporting measurement information to a network device, that is, after step 103, the method for a terminal device to control network connection may further include the following steps:

and 104, receiving a switching instruction issued by the network equipment.

Step 105, responding to the switching instruction, and switching the first connection state to the second connection state.

In the embodiment of the present application, after reporting, to a network device, measurement information obtained by performing signal measurement on a cell of a second network system in a first connection state, a terminal device may receive a switching instruction issued by the network device, and may switch, in response to the switching instruction, the terminal device from the first connection state to a second connection state.

It can be understood that, in the present application, if the network device issues the switching instruction for switching the network connection state to the terminal device, the terminal device may perform switching of the network connection state, that is, switching from the first connection state to the second connection state.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal device is in the first connection state, if the terminal device determines that the first preset condition is satisfied, the terminal device may start a timer, and then choose to prohibit the terminal device from measuring a signal of the second network system cell in the first connection state during the running time of the timer, so as to prevent the terminal device from being switched from the first connection state to the second connection state.

It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may set the time for the timer to run according to the network condition, for example, the time for the timer to run may be set to 5s. Correspondingly, after the terminal equipment in the first connection state judges that the first preset condition is met, the timer is selected to be started, and the signal of the second network type cell is not measured within the running time of the timer of 5s, so that the switching of the network connection state can be forbidden.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, after the terminal device starts the timer, when the time for the timer to run exceeds, the terminal device may allow the signal measurement of the cell of the second network system in the first connection state, that is, allow the terminal device to switch from the first connection state to the second connection state.

That is to say, in the present application, once the running time of the timer is exceeded, the terminal device may select to directly perform signal measurement on the cell of the second network system, that is, directly enter the handover procedure of the network connection state.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, after the terminal device starts the timer, when the time of the timer running exceeds, the terminal device may further select to determine whether the first preset condition is met again according to the real-time status parameter of the terminal device.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, after the terminal device determines whether the first preset condition is met again, if the first preset condition is met, the terminal device may select to reset the timer, and prohibit the terminal device from measuring the signal of the cell of the second network system in the first connection state within the time of running the timer; or directly forbidding the terminal equipment to measure the signal of the cell of the second network system in the first connection state.

That is to say, in the present application, through setting of the timer, the terminal device may no longer determine whether the first preset condition is satisfied in real time, but perform a periodic determination whether the first preset condition is satisfied with a time period of the timer operation as a period, that is, perform a determination process whether the first preset condition is satisfied again after the timer is overtime, so as to save power consumption.

In summary, in the embodiment of the present application, through the method for controlling network connection provided in the foregoing steps 101 to 105, the terminal device can perform comprehensive and comprehensive judgment processing on whether to perform switching of the network connection state in combination with the real-time state parameter obtained through detection, and after it is determined that the first preset condition is satisfied, the terminal device is prohibited from performing measurement and/or reporting processing on the signal of the second network type cell in the first connection state, so that the network connection state is continuously maintained as the first connection state, and the terminal device is prevented from being switched from the first connection state to the second connection state.

The embodiment of the application provides a network connection control method, when a terminal device is in a first connection state, if a first preset condition is met, the terminal device is prohibited from measuring a signal of a cell of a second network type in the first connection state, so as to prevent the terminal device from being switched from the first connection state to the second connection state, the first connection state is a connection state in the cell of the first network type, the second connection state is a connection state in the cell of the second network type, and the cell of the first network type and the cell of the second network type are cells of different network types. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the terminal device can comprehensively and comprehensively judge whether the LTE connection state is switched to the SA connection state, so that automatic switching to the SA connection state in the LTE connection state can be effectively reduced, and the intelligence of network connection control is improved.

Based on the foregoing embodiment, in a further embodiment of the present application, taking the first connection state as the LTE connection state and the second connection state as the SA connection state as an example, the method for the terminal device to determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the real-time status parameter may include the following steps:

step 201, if the screen state is a screen off state and the electric quantity is less than a preset electric quantity threshold, it is determined that a first preset condition is met.

Step 202, if the screen state is a bright screen state, whether a first preset condition is met is judged according to the application identifier and the electric quantity.

In the embodiment of the application, after the terminal device detects and obtains the real-time status parameter, if the screen status in the real-time status parameter is the off-screen status, and meanwhile, the electric quantity in the real-time status parameter is smaller than the preset electric quantity threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is met, that is, the switching processing of the network connection status is not allowed.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the screen-off state, the terminal device may be considered to be in a scenario where a low rate is required, and meanwhile, if the power amount of the terminal device is lower than the preset power amount threshold, the remaining power amount of the terminal device may be considered to be low and not suitable for the network mode with high power consumption, and therefore, the terminal device may determine to continue to maintain the LTE connection state with low power consumption (the first connection state), and prohibit the switching process of the network connection state, that is, disallow the switching to the SA connection state with high power consumption (the second connection state).

Further, in the embodiment of the application, after the terminal device detects and obtains the real-time status parameter, if the screen status in the real-time status parameter is a bright screen status, the terminal device may further determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the application identifier and the electric quantity in the real-time status parameter.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene with a low rate requirement, and as for whether the network connection state needs to be switched, the terminal device needs to further determine according to other real-time state parameters, for example, the terminal device may determine whether the first preset condition is satisfied by combining the electric quantity and the application identifier.

For example, in the present application, the preset power threshold may be preset by the terminal device and used for determining whether the high power consumption network mode is supported. For example, the terminal device may set 10% of the total power amount as a preset power amount threshold.

Specifically, in the application, when the terminal device determines whether the first preset condition is met according to the application identifier and the electric quantity, if the preset application blacklist does not include the application identifier and the electric quantity is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is not met; if the preset application blacklist includes the application identifier, or the electric quantity is smaller than the preset electric quantity threshold value, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is satisfied.

For example, in the present application, the preset application blacklist may be preset for the terminal device to determine whether the high-rate network mode is required. For example, the terminal device may add, to the preset blacklist, an application identifier corresponding to an application that requires low real-time performance and low speed, such as a text editing application, an image processing application, a setting application, and a web browsing application.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene with a low rate requirement, and meanwhile, if the preset application blacklist does not include the application identifier corresponding to the terminal device, it may be considered that the application running on the terminal device is not an application with a low rate requirement; further, if the electric quantity of the terminal device is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, it may be considered that the remaining electric quantity of the terminal device is high, and the network mode with high power consumption may be supported, and therefore, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is not satisfied, that is, the connection state is allowed to be switched, and the SA connection state (the second connection state) with a high transmission rate and high power consumption is allowed to be switched.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scenario where a low rate is required, but if the preset application blacklist includes an application identifier corresponding to the terminal device, it may be considered that an application run by the terminal device is an application where a low rate is required, and therefore, the terminal device may determine to continue to maintain an LTE connection state (a first connection state) where a transmission rate is low and power consumption is small, and prohibit a switching process of a network connection state, that is, disallow to switch to an SA connection state (a second connection state) where a transmission rate is high and power consumption is large.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene with a low rate requirement, and meanwhile, if the preset application blacklist does not include the application identifier corresponding to the terminal device, it may be considered that the application running on the terminal device is not an application with a low rate requirement; however, if the power of the terminal device is less than the preset power threshold, it may be considered that the remaining power of the terminal device is low and is not suitable for the network mode with high power consumption, and therefore, the terminal device may determine to continue to maintain the LTE connection state (the first connection state) with low power consumption, and prohibit the switching process of the network connection state, that is, disallow the switching to the SA connection state (the second connection state) with high power consumption.

Further, in this embodiment of the application, taking the first connection state as the LTE connection state and the second connection state as the SA connection state as an example, the method for the terminal device to determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the real-time state parameter of the terminal device may include the following steps:

and 203, if the screen state is a bright screen state, judging whether a first preset condition is met according to the network state parameters and the electric quantity.

In the embodiment of the application, after the terminal device detects and obtains the real-time status parameter, if the screen status in the real-time status parameter is the bright screen status, the terminal device may further determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the network status parameter and the electric quantity in the real-time status parameter.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene requiring a low rate, and as for whether the network connection state needs to be switched, the terminal device needs to further determine according to other real-time state parameters, for example, the terminal device may determine whether the first preset condition is satisfied by combining the power amount and the network state parameter.

For example, in the present application, the network status parameter may determine a transmission rate required by the terminal device. For example, the network status parameters include a transmission rate (uplink rate Tx) characterizing a transmission state and a reception rate (downlink rate Rx) characterizing a reception state. The uplink rate, that is, the uploading speed, refers to a data transmission rate when the terminal device sends information to the network device; the downlink rate, i.e. the download speed, refers to the transmission rate when the network device sends information to the terminal device.

Specifically, in the present application, when the terminal device determines whether a first preset condition is satisfied according to the network state parameter and the electric quantity, if the sending rate is less than a preset sending threshold and the receiving rate is less than a preset receiving threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is satisfied; if the sending rate is greater than or equal to a preset sending threshold, or the receiving rate is greater than or equal to a preset receiving threshold, and the electric quantity is less than a preset electric quantity threshold, the terminal device can judge that a first preset condition is met; if the sending rate is greater than or equal to the preset sending threshold, or the receiving rate is greater than or equal to the preset receiving threshold, and the electric quantity is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is not met.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene requiring a low rate, but if the sending rate is less than a preset sending threshold and the receiving rate is less than a preset receiving threshold, it may be considered that the transmission rate required by the terminal device is not high; therefore, the terminal device may determine to continue to maintain the LTE connection state (first connection state) with low power consumption, and prohibit the switching process of the network connection state, that is, not to allow switching to the SA connection state (second connection state) with high transmission rate and high power consumption.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene with a low rate requirement, and meanwhile, if the sending rate is greater than or equal to the preset sending threshold, or the receiving rate is greater than or equal to the preset receiving threshold, it may be considered that the terminal device requires a higher transmission rate. Further, if the power of the terminal device is less than the preset power threshold, it may be considered that the remaining power of the terminal device is low and is not suitable for the network mode with high power consumption, and therefore, the terminal device may determine to continue to maintain the LTE connection state (the first connection state) with low power consumption, and prohibit the switching process of the network connection state, that is, disallow the switching to the SA connection state (the second connection state) with high transmission rate and high power consumption.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a low-rate required scene, and meanwhile, if the receiving rate is greater than or equal to the preset receiving threshold, or the receiving rate is greater than or equal to the preset receiving threshold, it may be considered that the terminal device requires a higher transmission rate. Further, if the electric quantity of the terminal device is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, it may be considered that the remaining electric quantity of the terminal device is high, and the network mode with high power consumption may be supported, and therefore, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is not satisfied, that is, the connection state is allowed to be switched, and the SA connection state (the second connection state) with a high transmission rate and high power consumption is allowed to be switched.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, taking the first connection state as the LTE connection state and the second connection state as the SA connection state as an example, the method for the terminal device to determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the real-time state parameter may include the following steps:

step 205, if the screen state is a bright screen state, determining whether a first preset condition is met according to the network transmission quality and the electric quantity.

In the embodiment of the application, after the terminal device detects and obtains the real-time status parameter, if the screen status in the real-time status parameter is the bright screen status, the terminal device may further determine whether the first preset condition is met according to the network transmission quality and the electric quantity in the real-time status parameter.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is the bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene requiring a low rate, and as for whether the network connection state needs to be switched, the terminal device needs to further determine according to other real-time state parameters, for example, the terminal device may determine whether the first preset condition is satisfied by combining the power amount and the network transmission quality.

Illustratively, in the present application, the network transmission quality may determine the signal quality of a wireless signal used by the terminal device. For example, the network transmission quality may include a reference signal received power and a reference signal received quality, wherein the reference signal received power is a key parameter representing the strength of the wireless signal, and the reference signal received quality is a measurement value for judging the signal quality.

Specifically, in the present application, when the terminal device determines whether a first preset condition is satisfied according to the network transmission quality and the power amount, if the reference signal received power is greater than or equal to a preset power threshold and the reference signal received quality is greater than or equal to a preset quality threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is satisfied; if the reference signal received power is less than the preset power threshold, or the reference signal received quality is less than the preset quality threshold, and the electric quantity is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is not satisfied; if the reference signal received power is less than the preset power threshold, or the reference signal received quality is less than the preset quality threshold, and the electric quantity is less than the preset electric quantity threshold, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is satisfied.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene with a low rate requirement, but if the reference signal received power is greater than or equal to the preset power threshold and the reference signal received quality is greater than or equal to the preset quality threshold, it may be considered that the signal quality of the wireless signal used by the terminal device is better; therefore, the terminal device can determine to continue to maintain the LTE connected state (first connected state) with less power consumption, while prohibiting the switching process of the network connected state, i.e., not allowing the switching to the SA connected state (second connected state) with more power consumption.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a low-rate required scene, and meanwhile, if the reference signal received power is less than the preset power threshold, or the reference signal received quality is less than the preset quality threshold, it may be considered that the signal quality of the wireless signal used by the terminal device is poor. Further, if the power of the terminal device is less than the preset power threshold, it may be considered that the remaining power of the terminal device is low and is not suitable for the network mode with high power consumption, and therefore, the terminal device may determine to continue to maintain the LTE connection state (the first connection state) with low power consumption, and prohibit the switching process of the network connection state, that is, disallow the switching to the SA connection state (the second connection state) with high power consumption.

Therefore, the terminal device can determine that the first preset condition, that is, the switching process of the connection state is permitted, is not satisfied, and switching to the SA connection state (second connection state) with better signal quality is permitted.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a low-rate required scene, and meanwhile, if the reference signal received quality is less than the preset quality threshold, or the reference signal received quality is less than the preset quality threshold, it may be considered that the signal quality of the wireless signal used by the terminal device is poor. Further, if the electric quantity of the terminal device is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, it may be considered that the remaining electric quantity of the terminal device is high, and the network mode with high power consumption may be supported, and therefore, the terminal device may determine that the first preset condition is not satisfied, that is, the connection state is allowed to be switched, and the SA connection state (the second connection state) with a high transmission rate and high power consumption is allowed to be switched.

The embodiment of the application provides a network connection control method, and the terminal device can comprehensively judge whether to switch from the LTE connection state to the SA connection state based on the detected real-time state parameters, so that automatic switching to the SA connection state in the LTE connection state can be effectively reduced, and the intelligence of network connection control is improved.

Based on the foregoing embodiment, in another embodiment of the present application, fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of an implementation process of a method for controlling network connection provided in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 5, the method for controlling network connection by a terminal device may include the following steps:

In the embodiment of the application, when the network connection state of the terminal device is the LTE connection state, the terminal device may determine the scene information of the terminal device. The terminal device may detect the real-time status parameter, and then determine the scene information based on the real-time status parameter.

Specifically, in the present application, the real-time status parameter detected and obtained by the terminal device includes at least one parameter of multiple parameters such as a network status parameter, a screen status, an electric quantity, a temperature, a network transmission quality, an application identifier, location information, a network identifier, and an operation status.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may execute the determination procedure of the context information only in the LTE connected state, or may execute the determination procedure of the context information in any one of multiple connected states, such as the LTE connected state, the SA connected state, and the NSA connected state. The embodiments of the present application are not particularly limited.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, after the terminal device detects the real-time state parameter, the real-time state parameter may be directly determined as the corresponding scenario information, or may be analyzed and processed based on the real-time state parameter to generate the corresponding scenario information.

That is to say, in the present application, the scenario information determined by the terminal device may be represented as a specific state parameter, such as a network state parameter, an electric quantity, a temperature, and the like, or may be represented as an analysis result obtained based on real-time state parameter analysis, such as poor network quality, low electric quantity, and high temperature.

And step 303, keeping the LTE connection state.

In the embodiment of the application, after the terminal device determines whether the scene information satisfies the NR measurement condition, if it is determined that the scene information does not satisfy the NR measurement condition, it may be considered that the scene information corresponding to the terminal device is not suitable for switching the network connection state, and then the terminal device may not perform measurement and reporting processing of NR, so as to prevent the network connection state from being switched from the LTE connection state to the SA connection state, but continue to maintain the original LTE connection state.

And step 304, performing measurement and reporting processing of NR.

In the embodiment of the present application, after determining whether the context information satisfies the NR measurement condition, if it is determined that the context information satisfies the NR measurement condition, the terminal device may perform NR measurement processing, and report the obtained measurement information to the network device.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, after determining whether the context information satisfies the NR measurement condition, if it is determined that the context information satisfies the NR measurement condition, it may be considered that the context information corresponding to the terminal device is suitable for switching the network connection state, and then the terminal device may perform measurement and reporting processing of NR.

Step 305, receive a switch command.

And step 306, switching to an SA connection state.

In the embodiment of the present application, after reporting the measurement information obtained by measurement to the network device, the terminal device may receive a switching instruction issued by the network device, and may further respond to the switching instruction to switch the network connection state from the LTE connection state to the SA connection state.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, after the terminal device detects the real-time status parameter, the real-time status parameter may be directly determined as the corresponding context information, that is, the context information determined by the terminal device may be represented as a specific status parameter, for example, at least one parameter of multiple parameters such as a network status parameter, a screen status, an electric quantity, a temperature, a network transmission quality, an application identifier, location information, a network identifier, and an operating status. Fig. 6 is a schematic flow chart of a fifth implementation of the method for controlling network connection according to the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 6, the method for determining whether the scene information satisfies the NR measurement condition by the terminal device may include the following steps:

In the embodiment of the application, after the terminal device determines the scene information according to the real-time state parameters obtained by the detection, if the screen state is a bright screen state, it may be considered that the terminal device may not be in a scene with a low rate requirement, and meanwhile, if the RSRP is less than the threshold C1 and/or the RSRQ is less than the threshold C2, it may be considered that the signal quality of the wireless signal used by the terminal device is poor. Further, if the electric quantity of the terminal device is greater than or equal to the preset electric quantity threshold, it may be considered that the remaining electric quantity of the terminal device is high, and a network mode with high power consumption may be supported, so that the terminal device may determine that an NR measurement condition is satisfied, perform NR measurement, that is, allow a switching process of a connection state, and allow a switching to an SA connection state with a high transmission rate and high power consumption.

To sum up, the network connection control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can comprehensively consider a network state, a screen state, a remaining power amount, a complete machine temperature, a network transmission quality, and a user foreground application type corresponding to the terminal device, and further comprehensively determine whether to switch the network connection state, dynamically control the switching of LTE- > SA in the connection state, and prohibit automatic Fast switch (Auto Fast Return) from LTE to SA.

Specifically, in the present application, if the scenario corresponding to the terminal device is that the network quality is poor, the remaining power is too low, the temperature of the whole machine is high, and the application type requirement is high, when the terminal device is in the LTE connection state, the LTE may be prohibited from actively measuring the NR adjacent cell signal, and meanwhile, the NR cell measurement information is not actively reported to the network device, so as to prevent the network device from issuing a switching instruction to switch the terminal device from the LTE connection state to the SA connection state, thereby reducing the power consumption of the whole machine and increasing the endurance time.

For example, in the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is not a bright screen state and the power amount is less than B1 (for example, B1 is equal to 10%), disable MR, that is, measurement of NR and subsequent MR reporting in the LTE connection state are prohibited.

For example, in the application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, tx corresponding to the terminal device is smaller than a threshold A1 and Rx is smaller than a threshold A2, measurement of NR and subsequent MR reporting in an LTE connection state are allowed; if the Tx corresponding to the terminal equipment is not less than the threshold A1 or the Rx corresponding to the terminal equipment is not less than the threshold A2 and the electric quantity is less than B1, disabling the MR, namely, prohibiting the measurement of the NR and the subsequent MR report in the LTE connection state; and if the Tx corresponding to the terminal equipment is not less than the threshold A1 or the Rx corresponding to the terminal equipment is not less than the threshold A2 and the electric quantity is not less than the B1, allowing the measurement of the NR and the subsequent MR report in the LTE connection state.

For example, in the application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, the RSRP corresponding to the terminal device is not less than the threshold C1, and the RSRQ is not less than the threshold C2, measurement of NR and subsequent MR reporting in the LTE connection state are allowed; if the RSRP corresponding to the terminal device is smaller than the threshold C1, and/or the RSRQ is smaller than the threshold C2, and the power is smaller than the B1, the MR is disabled, that is, measurement of NR and subsequent MR reporting in the LTE connection state are prohibited; and if the RSRP corresponding to the terminal equipment is smaller than a threshold value C1, and/or the RSRQ is smaller than a threshold value C2, and the electric quantity is not smaller than B1, allowing the measurement of NR and the subsequent MR report in the LTE connection state.

For example, in the present application, if the screen state of the terminal device is a bright screen state, and an application identifier of an application run by the terminal device belongs to a preset application blacklist, the disable MR is to prohibit measurement of NR and subsequent MR reporting in an LTE connection state.

The embodiment of the application provides a network connection control method, and a terminal device can comprehensively judge whether to switch from an LTE connection state to an SA connection state or not based on detected real-time state parameters, so that automatic switching to the SA connection state in the LTE connection state can be effectively reduced, and the intelligence of network connection control is improved.
