For example, the mobile cellular network signal may be a 5G signal or a 4G signal, and the CPE may convert the 5G signal or the 4G signal to a WiFi signal.

Compared with the traditional broadband router, the CPE is more flexible and convenient, and mainly shows that: the CPE can obtain 5G broadband and WiFi signals only by plugging a 5G SIM card without installing the broadband, so that internet access service is provided for a plurality of terminals; meanwhile, the CPE can be compatible with the 4G network, and can provide uninterrupted multiple network access capability for users. With the popularization of various operators and equipment vendors, CPEs have been increasingly used in the home, business, or office scenarios.

Currently, while the CPE provides a network access service, the CPE may also provide a call service based on a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card inserted in the CPE. In the related art, the CPE and the terminal may be connected by a data line, and an AT command and other commands are issued to the CPE by the terminal, so that the CPE realizes call services such as making a call, receiving a call, hanging up a call, and the like. However, the CPE is generally installed in a fixed location such as a corner or a counter, and the CPE is not provided with a microphone, an earphone, and the like, and can only use the earphone to perform a call service, so that a user is inconvenient to use the CPE to perform the call service, and thus a call function of the CPE and a call package resource of the SIM card are idle and wasted.

Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, 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, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but 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.

Fig. 1A is a schematic view of a scenario that a call between two terminals is forwarded without using a CPE according to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 1A, a terminal 1 and a terminal 2 are included, and a call is made between the terminal 1 and the terminal 2 through a mobile cellular network. The terminal 1 and the terminal 2 may be devices having a call function, for example, the terminal 1 and the terminal 2 may be a mobile phone, a tablet, a call watch, or the like.

In the scenario shown in fig. 1A, if the terminal 1 or the terminal 2 is disconnected due to outage due to defaulting or is in an environment with poor mobile cellular network signals, the call function of the terminal 1 or the terminal 2 may not be realized.

Therefore, to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a call method for forwarding a call between two terminals by using a CPE. Next, with reference to fig. 1B and fig. 1C, a scenario that a CPE forwards a call between two terminals according to an embodiment of the present application is described.

Referring to fig. 1B, including the terminal 1 and the terminal 2, when the terminal 1 has no mobile cellular network signal or the mobile cellular network signal is poor, the terminal 1 cannot communicate with the base station, and thus cannot communicate with the terminal 2. The CPE is connected to the base station via a mobile cellular network and the CPE may provide a WiFi network for the terminal 1. If the terminal 1 is connected with the CPE through the WiFi network, a control instruction may be sent to the CPE through the terminal 1, so that the CPE forwards the call of the terminal 1 to the base station, and then sends the call to the terminal 2, thereby implementing the call between the terminal 1 and the terminal 2.

Fig. 1C is a schematic view of another scenario that a CPE is used to forward a call between two terminals according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to fig. 1C, in a home scenario or an office scenario, the CPE may further provide a WiFi network for a plurality of terminals 1-1 to terminals 1-N, where N is any positive integer greater than 1. The call scenario shown in fig. 1B can be implemented between any one of the terminals and the terminal 2.

In the related art, the CPE and the terminal may be connected by a data line, and an AT command and other commands are issued to the CPE by the terminal, so that the CPE realizes call services such as making a call, receiving a call, hanging up a call, and the like. However, the CPE is generally installed in a fixed location such as a corner or a counter, and the CPE is not provided with a microphone, an earphone, and the like, and can only use the earphone to perform a call service, so that a user is inconvenient to use the CPE to perform the call service, and thus a call function of the CPE and a call package resource of the SIM card are idle and wasted.

In the embodiment of the application, the conversation APP can be arranged in the first device or the second device, and the wireless control of the conversation function of the first device or the second device to the CPE is realized through the conversation APP, so that the CPE can forward the conversation between the first device and the second device, and a user can utilize the convenient conversation function of the first device or the second device without adding additional devices such as earphones or earphones at a CPE end, thereby improving the convenience of conversation service of the CPE, and enabling the conversation function of the CPE and the conversation package resource of the SIM card to be fully utilized.
