Description

Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of communication, and particularly relates to a communication method, a device and a terminal.
Background
With the development of communication technology, terminals are designed to be more advanced and complex in order to improve communication quality, and the complexity makes the power consumption of the terminals continuously rise. For example, compared with a 4G terminal, on the one hand, the transmission speed of the 5G terminal is faster, but the ultra-high network speed experience of the 5G terminal is based on more complex and more power-consuming antennas and radio frequency designs, for example, on some frequency bands, the 5G terminal uses 4 receiving antennas, which increases the power consumption of the terminal; on the other hand, the probability of using dual connectivity (Dual Connectivity, DC) is higher for 5G terminals, while the case of using single connectivity (Single Connectivity, SC) is more for 4G terminals, but dual connectivity brings greater "maximum throughput" to terminals while also bringing greater power consumption to terminals.
However, in some cases, the 5G terminal may not need 4 receiving antennas, and 2 receiving antennas can guarantee service performance; sometimes, the throughput rate required for the actual communication of the 5G terminal is far smaller than the "maximum throughput rate" supported by the dual connection, but consumes more power consumption.

In order to better balance the communication quality of the terminal and the power consumption of the terminal to avoid generating unnecessary power consumption, the embodiments of the present application provide a communication method and apparatus, and the detailed description is given below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 2, a communication method provided in an embodiment of the present application may include:
step 201, the terminal determines a working mode according to the target information.
Step 202, the terminal communicates with the network side device according to the determined working mode.
The working mode determined by the terminal according to the target information can be regarded as the working mode which is prone to the terminal or is actually needed. It can be understood that the terminal communicates with the network side device according to the actually required working mode, and unnecessary power consumption can be avoided on the premise of ensuring the communication quality, so that the purpose of balancing the communication quality and the power consumption is achieved.
The operation mode includes at least one of the number of receiving antennas and a connection mode in a connection state, and for the number of receiving antennas, taking a 5G terminal as an example, there are 4 receiving antennas (RX), and the operation mode may include the following three types: 1RX, 2RX and 4RX; the mode of operation of the connection comprises one of a dual connection (Dual Connectivity, DC) and a single connection (Single Connectivity, SC).
The target information is some information that has an influence on the power consumption of the terminal and/or the target information is information that has a certain requirement on the communication quality.
Specifically, the target information may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:
(1) Application related information of an application running in the terminal;
(2) The running state information of the terminal;
(3) Channel state information of a channel where the terminal is located;

Alternatively, the type information of the application running in the terminal may be determined based on the communication quality requirement of the application. For example, for application of games, if the application is "cloud games", the requirements on communication quality are relatively high, namely, the requirements on throughput rate, block error rate and time delay are relatively high, so that the application needs to be divided into application types corresponding to the requirements on communication quality higher than the preset requirements; if the cloud game is not a general mobile phone network game, the requirements on the communication quality are relatively low, so that the cloud game needs to be divided into application types corresponding to the communication quality requirements lower than the preset requirements.
The operation state information of the terminal may include at least one of a current time of the terminal, a current screen state of the terminal, a remaining power of the terminal, a temperature of the terminal, and a battery temperature of the terminal.

The channel state information of the channel where the terminal is located may include at least one of the following:
(1) -a reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP) of the terminal;
(2) signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (Signal Interference Noise Ratio, SINR) of the terminal;

On this basis, step 201 may include: the terminal can determine the working mode according to the communication quality requirements under the target information, wherein different communication quality requirements correspond to the respective working modes.
Alternatively, the communication quality requirement may be embodied in a list manner, for example, the communication quality requirement is lower than the preset requirement corresponding to the first list, and the communication quality requirement is higher than the preset requirement corresponding to the second list. The first list and the second list may store corresponding target information, for example, the first list or the second list stores application related information of some applications or running state of the terminal.
In the following, it is described how the terminal determines an operation mode according to the communication quality requirement under the target information by means of several specific embodiments.
Embodiment one
In the case that the operation mode includes the number of receiving antennas, the determining, by the terminal, the operation mode according to the communication quality requirement under the target information may include at least one of:
(1) And under the condition that the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than a preset requirement, the terminal determines the number of the receiving antennas as a first number.
(2) And under the condition that the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines the number of the receiving antennas to be a second number.
Wherein the first number is smaller than the second number. Taking a 5G terminal as an example, there are 4 receiving antennas (RX), the first number may be specifically 1RX or 2RX, and the second number may be specifically 2RX or 4RX.
Specifically, in the first embodiment, in the case where the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, which may be the following cases:
in the first case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the first application runs is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is a first number, the first application includes all or part of the applications that the terminal is running, and the first application is determined according to the application related information.
In the second case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, and the second application is an application with the highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with the highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, and the second application is determined according to the application related information.
In a third case, if the target information includes the running state information, if the communication quality requirement of the period in which the display time of the terminal is located is lower than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, and the display time of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Fourth, if the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is lower than a preset requirement under the condition that the target information includes the running state information, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, and the current screen state of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Specifically, in the first embodiment, when the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number, which may also include the following cases:
in the first case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the first application runs is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number, the first application includes all or part of the applications running by the terminal, and the first application is determined according to the application related information.
In the second case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number, where the second application is an application with the highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with the highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, and the second application is determined according to the application related information.
In a third case, if the target information includes the running state information, if the communication quality requirement of the period in which the display time of the terminal is located is higher than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number, and the display time of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Fourth, if the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is higher than the preset requirement under the condition that the target information includes the running state information, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number, and the current screen state of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
For the first case in the first embodiment, in a specific implementation, the terminal may maintain a correspondence between the application related information and the communication quality requirement, and when the application related information in the target information includes the related information of the first application, the communication quality requirement during the operation of the first application may be determined according to the correspondence.
Alternatively, for the first case of the above embodiment, in a specific implementation, the terminal may maintain an application related information list, for example, an application identifier list, and if the communication quality requirement corresponding to the application related information in the application related information list or not in the application related information list is determined, then in the case that the application related information in the target information includes the related information of the first application, the communication quality requirement during the operation of the first application is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas can be determined according to the application related information list and the related information of the first application, which is described below by three examples.
First example
Assuming that an application identification list (such as an application name list) is maintained in the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the application identification information in the application identification list when running is lower than a preset requirement, and the communication quality of the application not corresponding to the application identification information in the application identification list when running is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes identification information of a first application, the terminal may determine whether the application identification list includes identification information of the first application, if so, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is a first number, and if not, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is a second number.
As a specific example, assume that the application identifier list includes the following names of APPs that can be run offline: { "random-beat", "X-clip", "X-music" }, then if the terminal is currently using the APP of "X-music", the terminal can determine the number of reception antennas to be 1RX or 2RX.
Or, it is assumed that an application type list is maintained inside the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the application running corresponding to the application type in the application type list is lower than a preset requirement, and the communication quality of the application running corresponding to the application type not in the application type list is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes type information of a first application, the terminal may determine whether the application type list includes an application type of the first application according to the type information of the first application, if so, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is a first number, and if not, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is a second number.
Second example
Assuming that an application identification list (such as an application name list) is maintained in the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the application identification information in the application identification list is higher than a preset requirement, and the communication quality of the application corresponding to the application identification information in the application identification list is not lower than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes identification information of a first application, the terminal may determine whether the application identification list includes identification information of the first application, if so, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is the second number, and if not, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is the first number.
As a specific example, assume that the application identifier list includes the following names of online video play APPs: { "X-tone", "Xodd", "X station" }, then if the terminal is currently using the APP "X-tone", the terminal can determine the number of receive antennas to be 2RX or 4RX.
Or, it is assumed that an application type list is maintained inside the terminal, the communication quality requirement when the application corresponding to the application type in the application type list runs is higher than the preset requirement, and the communication quality when the application not corresponding to the application type in the application type list runs is lower than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes type information of a first application, the terminal may determine whether the application type list includes an application type of the first application according to the type information of the first application, if not, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is a first number, and if so, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is a second number.
Third example
It is assumed that an application identifier list (e.g., an application name list) is maintained in the terminal, and the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the first part of application identifier information in the application identifier list during operation is lower than a preset requirement, and the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the second part of application identifier information during operation is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application-related information and the application-related information includes identification information of a first application, the terminal may determine in which part of the application identification list the identification information of the first application is included, if included in the first part of application identification information, the terminal may determine the number of receiving antennas as a first number, and if included in the second part of application identification information, the terminal may determine the number of receiving antennas as a second number.
Optionally, in the case that the identification information of the first application is neither in the first part of application identification information of the application identification list nor in the second part of application identification information of the application identification list, the terminal may not perform processing, and the current number of receiving antennas is kept unchanged.
Or, it is assumed that an application type list is maintained inside the terminal, and the communication quality requirement of the application running corresponding to the first part of application types in the application type list is lower than the preset requirement, and the communication quality requirement of the application running corresponding to the second part of application types is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application-related information and the application-related information includes type information of a first application, the terminal may determine, according to the type information of the first application, in which part of the application type list the application type corresponding to the first application is included, if included in the first part of application types, the terminal may determine that the number of receiving antennas is a first number, and if included in the second part of application types, the terminal may determine that the number of receiving antennas is a second number.
Optionally, in the case that the application type corresponding to the first application is neither in the first partial application type nor in the second partial application type, the terminal may not perform processing, and keep the current number of receiving antennas unchanged.
Similarly, for the second case in the first embodiment, in a specific implementation, a correspondence between application related information and a communication quality requirement may be maintained in the terminal, where the application related information in the target information includes related information of the second application, and the communication quality requirement during the running of the second application may be determined according to the correspondence; or, the terminal may maintain an application related information list, for example, an application identifier list, where the communication quality requirement corresponding to the application related information in the application related information list or not is determined, and if the application related information in the target information includes the related information of the second application, the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas can be determined according to the application related information list and the related information of the second application.
Similarly, for the third case in the first embodiment, in a specific implementation, a correspondence between different time periods and communication quality requirements may be maintained in the terminal, and in a case that the running state information in the target information includes the display time of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the time period in which the display time of the terminal is located may be determined according to the correspondence; or, a time period list may be maintained in the terminal, and the communication quality requirement corresponding to the display time in the time period list or not in the time period list is determined, so that in the case that the running state information in the target information contains the display time of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the time period in which the display time of the terminal is located is also determined, and therefore, the number of receiving antennas can be determined according to the time period list and the time period in which the display time of the terminal is located.
Similarly, for the fourth case in the first embodiment, in a specific implementation, a corresponding relationship between a different screen state and a communication quality requirement may be maintained in the terminal, and in a case that the running state information in the target information includes the current screen state of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state may be determined according to the corresponding relationship; or, a screen state list may be maintained in the terminal, where the communication quality requirement corresponding to the screen state in the screen state list or not in the screen state list is determined, and if the running state information in the target information includes the current screen state of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas can be determined according to the screen state list and the current screen state of the terminal.
It can be understood that when the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the communication quality requirement which is actually required by the terminal at present is possibly lower than the preset requirement, and the communication quality of the terminal can be ensured without more receiving antennas, so that the number of the receiving antennas can be determined to be the first number; otherwise, when the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, it is indicated that the communication quality requirement actually required by the terminal at present may be higher than the preset requirement, and more receiving antennas are required to ensure the communication quality, so that the number of receiving antennas can be determined to be the second number. The first number may be 1RX or 2RX, and the second number may be 2RX or 4RX.
Second embodiment

(1) And under the condition that the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection.
(2) And under the condition that the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is double connection.
Specifically, in the second embodiment, when the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and there may be the following cases:
in the first case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement of the first application in operation is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, the first application includes all or part of the applications that the terminal is running, and the first application is determined according to the application related information.
In the second case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement during the running of the second application is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, where the second application is an application with the highest communication quality requirement in the applications running on the terminal, or the second application is an application with the highest power consumption in the applications running on the terminal, and the second application is determined according to the application related information.
In a third case, if the target information includes the running state information, if the communication quality requirement of the period in which the display time of the terminal is located is lower than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and the display time of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Fourth, if the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is lower than the preset requirement under the condition that the target information includes the running state information, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and the current screen state of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Specifically, in the first embodiment, when the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual-connection, which may also include the following cases:
in the first case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the first application runs is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection, the first application includes all or part of the applications running on the terminal, and the first application is determined according to the application related information.
In the second case, if the target information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual-connection, where the second application is an application with the highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with the highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, and the second application is determined according to the application related information.
In a third case, if the target information includes the running state information, if the communication quality requirement of the period where the display time of the terminal is located is higher than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection, and the display time of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Fourth, if the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is higher than the preset requirement under the condition that the target information includes the running state information, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection, and the current screen state of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Aiming at the first situation in the second embodiment, in particular implementation, a corresponding relation between application related information and communication quality requirements can be maintained in the terminal, and under the condition that the application related information in the target information contains the related information of the first application, the communication quality requirements of the first application in operation can be determined according to the corresponding relation; alternatively, an application related information list may be maintained in the terminal, for example, an application identifier list is maintained, and a communication quality requirement corresponding to application related information in the application related information list or not in the application related information list is determined, so that when the application related information in the target information includes related information of the first application, the communication quality requirement when the first application runs is also determined, so that a connection manner can be determined according to the application related information list and the related information of the first application, which is described by three examples below.
First example
It is assumed that an application identifier list (such as an application name list) is maintained in the terminal, and the communication quality requirement when the application corresponding to the application identifier information in the application identifier list runs is lower than a preset requirement, and the communication quality when the application corresponding to the application identifier information in the application identifier list does not run is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes identification information of the first application, the terminal may determine whether the application identification list includes identification information of the first application, if so, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and if not, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection.
As a specific example, assume that the application identifier list includes the following names of APPs that can be run offline: { "slap", "X clip", "X music" }, then if the terminal is currently using the APP of "X music", the terminal may determine that the connection mode is single connection.
Or, it is assumed that an application type list is maintained inside the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the application running corresponding to the application type in the application type list is lower than a preset requirement, and the communication quality of the application running corresponding to the application type not in the application type list is higher than the preset requirement. Then, when the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes type information of the first application, the terminal may determine whether the application type list includes an application type of the first application according to the type information of the first application, if so, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and if not, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection.
Second example
Assuming that an application identification list (such as an application name list) is maintained in the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the application identification information in the application identification list is higher than a preset requirement, and the communication quality of the application corresponding to the application identification information in the application identification list is not lower than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes identification information of the first application, the terminal may determine whether the application identification list includes identification information of the first application, if so, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection, and if not, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection.
As a specific example, assume that the application identifier list includes the following names of online video play APPs: { "X-tone", "XQiyi", "X station" }, then if the terminal is currently using the APP "X-tone", the terminal can determine that the connection is dual-connected.
Or, it is assumed that an application type list is maintained inside the terminal, and the communication quality requirement when the application corresponding to the application type in the application type list runs is higher than the preset requirement, and the communication quality when the application not corresponding to the application type in the application type list runs is lower than the preset requirement. Then, when the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes type information of the first application, the terminal may determine whether the application type list includes an application type of the first application according to the type information of the first application, if not, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and if so, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection.
Third example
It is assumed that an application identifier list (e.g., an application name list) is maintained in the terminal, and the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the first part of application identifier information in the application identifier list during operation is lower than a preset requirement, and the communication quality requirement of the application corresponding to the second part of application identifier information during operation is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application-related information and the application-related information includes identification information of a first application, the terminal may determine in which part of the application identification list the identification information of the first application is included, if included in the first part of application identification information, the terminal may determine that the connection mode is a single connection, and if included in the second part of application identification information, the terminal may determine that the connection mode is a double connection.
Optionally, in the case that the identification information of the first application is neither in the first part of application identification information of the application identification list nor in the second part of application identification information of the application identification list, the terminal may not perform processing, and keep the current connection mode unchanged.
Or, it is assumed that an application type list is maintained inside the terminal, and the communication quality requirement of the application running corresponding to the first part of application types in the application type list is lower than the preset requirement, and the communication quality requirement of the application running corresponding to the second part of application types is higher than the preset requirement. Then, in the case that the target information includes the application related information and the application related information includes type information of a first application, the terminal may determine, according to the type information of the first application, in which part of the application type list the application type corresponding to the first application is included, if included in the first part of application types, the terminal may determine that the connection mode is a single connection, and if included in the second part of application types, the terminal may determine that the connection mode is a dual connection.
Optionally, in the case that the application type corresponding to the first application is neither in the first part application type nor in the second part application type, the terminal may not perform processing, and keep the current connection mode unchanged.
Similarly, for the second case in the second embodiment, in a specific implementation, a correspondence between application related information and a communication quality requirement may be maintained in the terminal, where the application related information in the target information includes related information of the second application, and the communication quality requirement during the running of the second application may be determined according to the correspondence; or, the terminal may maintain an application related information list, for example, an application identifier list, and in the case that the communication quality requirement corresponding to the application related information in the application related information list or not in the application related information list is determined, and in the case that the application related information in the target information includes the related information of the second application, the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is also determined, so that the connection mode can be determined according to the application related information list and the related information of the second application.
Similarly, for the third situation in the second embodiment, in specific implementation, the terminal may maintain a correspondence between different periods and communication quality requirements, where the running state information in the target information includes the display time of the terminal, and the communication quality requirement of the period where the display time of the terminal is located may be determined according to the correspondence; or, a time period list can be maintained in the terminal, and the communication quality requirement corresponding to the display time in the time period list or not in the time period list is determined, so that the communication quality requirement of the time period in which the display time of the terminal is located is also determined under the condition that the display time of the terminal is contained in the running state information in the target information, and the connection mode can be determined according to the time period list and the time period in which the display time of the terminal is located.
Similarly, for the fourth case in the second embodiment, in specific implementation, the terminal may maintain a corresponding relationship between different screen states and communication quality requirements, where the running state information in the target information includes the current screen state of the terminal, and the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state may be determined according to the corresponding relationship; or, a screen state list may be maintained in the terminal, where the communication quality requirement corresponding to the screen state in the screen state list or not in the screen state list is determined, and if the running state information in the target information includes the current screen state of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is also determined, so that the connection mode can be determined according to the screen state list and the current screen state of the terminal.
It can be understood that when the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the communication quality requirement which is actually required by the terminal at present is possibly lower than the preset requirement, and double connection is not required, so that the connection mode can be determined to be single connection; otherwise, when the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, it is indicated that the communication quality requirement actually required by the terminal at present may be higher than the preset requirement, and dual connection is required, so that the connection mode can be determined to be dual connection.
It should be noted that, although the above description has been made of the operation mode in which the terminal tendency is determined based on only one kind of information in the target information by way of four cases, this is not to say that the operation mode in which the terminal tendency is determined based on only one kind of information in the target information alone, but the operation mode in which the terminal tendency is determined by combining different pieces of information in the target information, for example, may be determined based on the preset information of the first application being executed in the terminal and the display time of the terminal, may be determined based on the display time of the terminal and the current screen state information of the terminal, and so on, the embodiment of the present application is not exhaustive.
Embodiment III
The terminal can determine a working mode according to the communication quality requirement under the target information, and the working mode comprises at least one of the following steps:
(1) If the working mode includes the number of receiving antennas, if the first part of information in the target information meets a first preset condition, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is the first number if the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is lower than the preset requirement.
(2) If the working mode includes a connection mode, if the first part of information in the target information meets a first preset condition, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is lower than a preset requirement.
Optionally, the terminal may determine the working mode according to the communication quality requirement under the target information, and may further include at least one of the following:
(1) If the working mode includes the number of the receiving antennas, if the first part of information in the target information does not meet the first preset condition, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number if the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is higher than the preset requirement.
(2) If the working mode includes a connection mode, if the first part of information in the target information does not meet the first preset condition, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is higher than the preset requirement.
Wherein the first partial information may include at least one of:
(1) The method comprises the steps that first part of application related information of an application running in the terminal comprises at least one of application throughput rate, application block error rate, application time delay, application cache state and application blocking state;
(2) A first part of operation state information of the terminal, and the first part of operation state information includes at least one of a remaining power of the terminal, a temperature of the terminal, and a battery temperature of the terminal;
(3) Channel state information of a channel where the terminal is located;
(4) The radio access technology used by the terminal.
Wherein the second partial information may include at least one of:
(1) A second part of application related information of an application running in the terminal, and the second part of application related information includes at least one of identification information and type information;
(2) And second part of operation state information of the terminal, wherein the second part of operation state information comprises at least one of display time of the terminal and current screen state of the terminal.
It will be appreciated that the corresponding first preset condition may be different for different information in the first part of information, which is illustrated below.
In a first example, in a case where the first partial information includes first partial application related information of an application being executed in the terminal:
(1) If the first part of application related information includes an application throughput rate, the first preset condition includes: the downlink communication throughput rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the downlink critical throughput rate, and/or the uplink communication throughput rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the uplink critical throughput rate;
(2) If the first part of application related information includes an application block error rate, the first preset condition includes: the downlink block error rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the downlink critical block error rate, and/or the uplink block error rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the uplink critical block error rate;
(3) If the first part of application related information includes application delay, the first preset condition includes: the time delay of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than the critical time delay;
(4) If the first part of application related information includes an application cache state, the first preset condition includes: the percentage of the cache data of the first application or the second application running on the terminal in the cache space is smaller than a first critical percentage;
(5) If the first part of application related information includes an application stuck state, the first preset condition includes: the percentage of the blocking time of the first application or the second application running on the terminal to the running time is smaller than a second critical percentage.
As described above, the first application includes all or part of the applications that the terminal is running; the second application is an application with highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, such as an application with largest occupied screen area in the applications running by the terminal.
In a second example, in the case that the first part of information includes first part of operation state information of the terminal:
(1) If the first part of running state information includes the remaining power of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the residual electric quantity of the terminal is smaller than or equal to an electric quantity critical value;
(2) If the first part of operation state information includes the temperature of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the temperature of the terminal is greater than or equal to a temperature critical value;
(3) If the first part of operation state information includes the battery temperature of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the battery temperature of the terminal is greater than or equal to a temperature threshold.
It can be appreciated that, since the communication method provided in the embodiment of the present application aims to balance the communication quality and the power consumption of the terminal, rather than blindly reduce the power consumption, if the remaining power of the terminal is relatively small (as in the above (1) th aspect, the remaining power of the terminal is less than or equal to the power critical value), there is a need to reduce the power consumption to save energy, then the first number of receiving antennas and/or the single connection may be selected to be used to reduce the power consumption without affecting the communication quality; if the terminal has a high current residual power and there is no need to reduce power consumption to save power, it may not be necessary to use a first number of receive antennas and/or to use a single connection, but to use a second number of receive antennas and/or to use a double connection.
In a third example, in the case where the first partial information includes channel state information of a channel on which the terminal is located:
(1) If the channel state information includes RSRP of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the RSRP of the terminal is larger than or equal to an RSRP critical value;
(2) If the channel state information includes SINR of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the SINR of the terminal is larger than or equal to the SINR critical value;
(3) If the channel state information includes RSRQ of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the RSRQ of the terminal is greater than or equal to an RSRQ threshold.
It will be appreciated that for some APPs with low communication quality requirements, where the channel conditions are relatively good, the use of a smaller number of receive antennas and/or the use of a single connection tends to be favored, and for such APPs the channel conditions are not good, if the use of a smaller number of receive antennas and/or a single connection is also chosen, this will result in a very low communication quality and will affect the user experience. Because the communication method provided in the embodiments of the present application aims at balancing the communication quality and power consumption of the terminal, rather than sacrificing the communication quality in exchange for the reduction of power consumption. Therefore, the embodiment of the application can firstly judge whether the first part of information in the target information meets the first preset condition, and then determine that the number of the receiving antennas of the terminal tendency is the first number and/or the connection mode of the tendency is single connection based on the second part of information in the target information if the first part of information meets the first preset condition. For APP with high communication quality requirements, generally, a larger number of receive antennas and/or dual connectivity is preferred, and in a small probability, such as when the channel condition is relatively poor, a smaller number of receive antennas and/or a single connectivity is preferred.
In a fourth example, in a case where the first part of information includes a radio access technology used by the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the radio access technology used by the terminal is a new air interface NR of an independent networking (Standalone Architecture, SA).
In summary, whether the information in the first part of information meets the first preset condition is judged to judge whether the terminal has a requirement of energy saving or not, or whether the power consumption can be reduced by reducing the number of the receiving antennas and/or selecting single connection is judged to save energy, if so, the number of the receiving antennas is determined to be the first number, and/or the connection mode is determined to be single connection; if not, a greater number of receive antennas and/or dual connectivity is used, and in the unlikely case, a lesser number of receive antennas and/or single connectivity is used.
In the third embodiment, the specific implementation modes of "the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number" in the case where the communication quality requirement in the second part of the target information is lower than the preset requirement "," the terminal determines that the connection mode is the single connection in the case where the communication quality requirement in the second part of the target information is higher than the preset requirement "," the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number "in the case where the communication quality requirement in the second part of the target information is higher than the preset requirement", and "the terminal determines that the connection mode is the dual connection" are similar to those in the first embodiment, respectively, "the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number in the case where the communication quality requirement in the target information is lower than the preset requirement", "the terminal determines that the connection mode is the single connection in the case where the communication quality requirement in the target information is lower than the preset requirement", "the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number in the case where the communication quality requirement in the target information is higher than the preset requirement", "the terminal determines that the number of the terminal determines that the communication quality requirement in the second part of the target information is higher than the preset requirement", and "the connection mode is the short description of the specific connection mode".
Specifically, in the third embodiment, in the case where the communication quality requirement under the second portion of information in the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, and there may be the following cases:
in the first case, if the second portion of information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the first application runs is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is a first number, the first application includes all or part of the applications that the terminal is running, and the first application is determined according to the application related information.
In the second case, if the second part of information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, and the second application is an application with the highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with the highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, and the second application is determined according to the application related information.
In a third case, if the second portion of information includes the running state information, if the communication quality requirement of the period in which the display time of the terminal is located is lower than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of receiving antennas is the first number, and the display time of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
In a fourth case, if the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is lower than the preset requirement under the condition that the second part of information includes the running state information, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, and the current screen state of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Specifically, in the third embodiment, when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and there may be the following cases:
in the first case, if the second part of information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the first application runs is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, the first application includes all or part of the applications running on the terminal, and the first application is determined according to the application related information.
In the second case, if the second part of information includes the application related information and the communication quality requirement when the second application runs is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and the second application is an application with the highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with the highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, and the second application is determined according to the application related information.
In a third case, if the second portion of information includes the running state information, if the communication quality requirement of the period in which the display time of the terminal is located is lower than a preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and the display time of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
Fourth, if the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is lower than the preset requirement under the condition that the second part of information includes the running state information, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection, and the current screen state of the terminal is determined according to the running state information.
For the first case of the third embodiment, in a specific implementation, a correspondence between application related information and a communication quality requirement may be maintained in the terminal, and when the application related information in the second portion of information includes related information of the first application, the communication quality requirement during operation of the first application may be determined according to the correspondence.
Or, in the first case of the third embodiment, in a specific implementation, an application related information list may be maintained in the terminal, for example, an application identifier list is maintained, and in the case that the communication quality requirement corresponding to the application related information in the application related information list or not in the application related information list is determined, and in the case that the application related information in the second part of information includes the related information of the first application, the communication quality requirement in the operation of the first application is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas and/or the connection manner can be determined according to the application related information list and the related information of the first application, which is described by three examples below.
Similarly, for the second case in the third embodiment, in a specific implementation, a correspondence between application related information and a communication quality requirement may be maintained in the terminal, where the application related information in the second portion of information includes related information of the second application, and the communication quality requirement during the operation of the second application may be determined according to the correspondence; or, the terminal may maintain an application related information list, for example, an application identifier list, where the communication quality requirement corresponding to the application related information in the application related information list or not is determined, and if the application related information in the second part of information includes the related information of the second application, the communication quality requirement during the running of the second application is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas and/or the connection manner can be determined according to the application related information list and the related information of the second application.
Similarly, for the third case in the third embodiment, in a specific implementation, the terminal may maintain a correspondence between different periods and communication quality requirements, and in a case that the running state information in the second part of information includes the display time of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the period where the display time of the terminal is located may be determined according to the correspondence; or, a time period list may be maintained in the terminal, where the communication quality requirement corresponding to the display time in the time period list or not in the time period list is determined, and then, if the running state information in the second part of information includes the display time of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the time period where the display time of the terminal is located is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas and/or the connection mode can be determined according to the time period list and the time period where the display time of the terminal is located.
Similarly, for the fourth case in the third embodiment, in a specific implementation, a corresponding relationship between a different screen state and a communication quality requirement may be maintained in the terminal, and in a case that the running state information in the second part of information includes the current screen state of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state may be determined according to the corresponding relationship; or, a screen state list may be maintained in the terminal, where the communication quality requirement corresponding to the screen state in the screen state list or not in the screen state list is determined, and if the running state information in the second part of information includes the current screen state of the terminal, the communication quality requirement of the terminal in the current screen state is also determined, so that the number of receiving antennas and/or the connection mode can be determined according to the screen state list and the current screen state of the terminal.
It can be understood that when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information is lower than the preset requirement, the communication quality requirement which is actually required by the terminal at present is possibly lower than the preset requirement, the communication quality of the terminal can be ensured without needing more receiving antennas and double connection, so that the number of the receiving antennas can be determined to be the first number, and/or the connection mode can be determined to be single connection; otherwise, when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information is higher than the preset requirement, it is indicated that the communication quality requirement actually required by the terminal at present may be higher than the preset requirement, and more receiving antennas are required to ensure the communication quality of the terminal, or dual connection is required, so that the number of receiving antennas can be determined to be the second number, and/or the connection mode is determined to be dual connection.
According to the communication method provided by the embodiment of the application, the terminal can actively determine the working mode according to the target information, such as at least one of the number of receiving days and the connection mode, and work according to the determined working mode instead of the fixed working mode, so that better balance can be made between the communication quality and the power consumption, and the power consumption of the terminal is reduced on the premise of ensuring the communication quality.
In addition, the terminal determines the working mode and works according to the determined working mode, so that the participation of the network side equipment is hardly needed, the signaling interaction between the terminal and the network side equipment in the process can be reduced, the complexity of the network side is reduced, and the problems that the effective time delay of the working mode in the terminal is large due to the participation of the network side equipment are avoided. It is conceivable that if the working mode of the terminal is determined and controlled by the network side device, not only the complexity of the network side is increased, but also the effective delay for modifying the working mode in the terminal is larger due to excessive signaling interaction, and the delay also causes mismatching between the working mode in the terminal and the channel condition when the channel condition of the terminal changes rapidly.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 3, in another embodiment, a communication method provided in the present application may further include, before step 202:
and 203, the terminal sends first information to the network equipment.
The first information comprises a working mode which is prone to the terminal or a working mode which is supported by the terminal.
Specifically, in one example, the first information includes an operation mode of the terminal tendency, and the operation mode of the terminal tendency includes at least one of a MIMO layer number of the terminal tendency and a connection mode of the terminal tendency, where the MIMO layer number of the terminal tendency is related to the number of receiving antennas determined by the terminal, and the connection mode of the terminal tendency is determined according to the connection mode determined by the terminal.
For example, assume that the number of receiving antennas determined by the terminal in step 201 is: RX ant number=2, then the terminal may determine its intended MIMO layer number (layer number) based on "RX ant number=2" as: (layer number) <=min (TX port number, RX ant number).
In a specific implementation, the first information may be UE auxiliary information (UEAssistanceInformation, UAI), that is, at least one of the MIMO layer number of the terminal tendency and the connection mode of the terminal tendency may be sent by the terminal to the network side device through the UAI.
Alternatively, the terminal-prone MIMO layer number may be indicated by one of the following fields in the UAI:
UEAssistanceInformation-v1610-IEs/maxMIMO-LayerPreference-r16
UEAssistanceInformation-v1700-IEs/maxMIMO-LayerPreferenceFR2-2-r17
alternatively, the connection mode of the terminal tendency can be indicated by one of the following fields in the UAI:
UEAssistanceInformation-IEs/UEAssistanceInformation-v1540-IEs/UEAssistanceInformation-v1610-IEs/MaxCC-Preference-r16/reducedMaxCCs-r16
UEAssistanceInformation-IEs/UEAssistanceInformation-v1540-IEs/OverheatingAssistance/reducedMaxCCs
in the above information domain, "/" indicates the path of the domain.
Specifically, in another example, the first information includes an operation mode supported by the terminal, and the operation mode supported by the terminal includes at least one of a MIMO layer number supported by the terminal and a connection mode (or called connection capability) supported by the terminal, where the MIMO layer number supported by the terminal is related to the number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal, and the connection mode supported by the terminal is determined by the connection capability supported by the terminal.
For example, assume that the number of receiving antennas determined by the terminal in step 201 is: RX ant number=2, then the terminal may determine, based on "RX ant number=2", that its supported MIMO layer number (layer number) is: (layer number) <=min (TX port number, RX ant number).
In a specific implementation, the first information may be UE capability information (UE capability information), that is, the terminal may send, to the network side device through UCI, at least one of the MIMO layer number supported by the terminal and the connection mode supported by the terminal.
Alternatively, the number of MIMO layers supported by the terminal may be indicated by one of the following fields in UCI:
ue-CapabilityRAT-ContainerList/UE-CapabilityRAT-Container/UE-NR-Capability/Phy-Parameters/Phy-ParametersCommon/maxLayersMIMO-Indication
alternatively, the connection mode supported by the terminal may be indicated by one of the following fields in UCI:
rf-ParametersMRDC/supportedBandCombinationList
in the above information field, "/" also indicates the path of the field.
It can be understood that the terminal reports the determined working mode to the network side device (such as the base station), and the base station can be guided to make configuration matched with the determined working mode for the terminal, so that the terminal can work according to the determined working mode.
For example, if the number of receiving antennas determined by the terminal according to the target information is 2RX and the terminal selects to use 2RX for communication with the network side device, at this time, if the base station schedules a 4-layer (4-layer) transmission to the terminal, the terminal will not successfully demodulate this Transport Block (TB). That is, the terminal's own determined mode of operation may be out of sync with the base station's expectations, which may cause "short-lived communication performance loss". To avoid this problem, the terminal may signal its own tendency or the number of MIMO layers supported to the base station, for example, by UA assistance information or UE capability information, where it is desirable that the base station and the terminal keep consistent in understanding the number of receiving antennas of the terminal, so that the base station schedule the terminal without TB scheduling with the number of MIMO layers greater than 2, thereby avoiding "short-lived communication performance loss".
Similarly, the terminal can inform the base station of the determined connection mode through signaling, for example, inform the base station through UA auxiliary information or UE capability information, and hope that the base station and the terminal keep consistent in understanding the connection mode of the terminal, so as to achieve the purpose that the configuration of the base station to the terminal is consistent with the 'terminal determined working mode'.
Of course, the base station has more autonomy, the signaling reported by the terminal, the base station only makes reference, and the decision is on the base station side. However, there is no excessive fear that even if the "determined operation mode" of the terminal is inconsistent with the "expected operation mode" of the base station, in the actual product design, the base station also has an "adaptive algorithm design", so that the scheduling of the base station can be gradually adjusted, thereby ensuring that the "communication performance loss" is "short".
Optionally, in another embodiment, the terminal communicates with the network side device according to the determined operation mode, which may include:
and under the condition that the connection mode determined by the terminal is single connection and the terminal is in a double connection state at present, the terminal sends second information to the network side equipment and closes the measurement of the B event of the own auxiliary cell, wherein the second information is used for triggering the network side equipment to release the auxiliary cell of the terminal.
For example, the terminal may send signaling to the base station: SCGFailureInformation (a form of the second information) to trigger the base station to release the secondary cell group (Secondary Cell Group, SCG) to which the terminal belongs.
Specifically, the terminal may close measurement and report of the B event within a preset time period T in the future.
Optionally, in another embodiment, the terminal communicates with the network side device according to the determined operation mode, which may include:
and when the terminal determines that the connection mode is double connection and the terminal is currently in single connection, the terminal measures the B event of the own auxiliary cell and reports the measurement result to the network side equipment when the communication quality meets a second preset condition.
The second preset condition may include a condition that the signal strength meets the configuration, and the like.
In general, the base station should allow the UE to report the signal quality of the serving cell and the neighboring cells (e.g., secondary cells) and trigger the handover through a single measurement, but in practical applications, an overload situation may be caused due to unnecessary handover. To avoid this, the relevant specifications propose a set of predefined measurement reporting mechanisms that are performed by the UE. These predefined metric report types are referred to as "EVENTs". The type of "event" that the UE needs to report is specified by the RRC signaling message sent by the base station. Wherein the B event is used between systems, and the corresponding A event also exists, and the A event is used in the systems. Specifically, the relevant specification defines the following B events for NR:
B1 event (EventB 1): the signal quality of the neighboring cells of the different systems is higher than a certain threshold;
b2 event (EventB 2): the signal quality of the serving cell is lower than a certain threshold and the signal quality of the neighboring cells of the different system is higher than a certain threshold.
It can be understood that these two embodiments are preparation works made by the terminal when the connection mode is switched, which is helpful for timely effecting the switching of the connection mode.

The foregoing describes a communication method provided by the embodiments of the present application.
It should be noted that, in the communication method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the execution body may be a communication device. In the embodiment of the present application, a communication device is described by taking an example of a communication method performed by a communication device.
A communication device provided in an embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Since a communication device provided in the embodiments of the present application corresponds to a communication method provided in the embodiments of the present application, a description of a communication device provided in the embodiments of the present application is more brief, and reference may be made to the description of the embodiments of the method above for details.
As shown in fig. 5, one embodiment of the present application provides a communication device 500, which device 500 may include a determination module 501 and a communication module 502.
A determining module 501, configured to determine an operation mode according to the target information.
And the communication module 502 is used for communicating with the network side equipment according to the determined working mode.
The working mode determined by the terminal according to the target information can be regarded as the working mode which is prone to the terminal or is actually needed. It can be understood that the terminal communicates with the network side device according to the actually required working mode, and unnecessary power consumption can be avoided on the premise of ensuring the communication quality, so that the purpose of balancing the communication quality and the power consumption is achieved.

Alternatively, the type information of the application running in the terminal may be determined based on the communication quality requirement of the application. For example, for application of games, if the application is "cloud games", the requirements on communication quality are relatively high, namely, the requirements on throughput rate, block error rate and time delay are relatively high, so that the application needs to be divided into application types corresponding to the requirements on communication quality higher than the preset requirements; if the cloud game is not a general mobile phone network game, the requirements on the communication quality are relatively low, so that the cloud game needs to be divided into application types corresponding to the communication quality requirements lower than the preset requirements.
The operation state information of the terminal may include at least one of a current time of the terminal, a current screen state of the terminal, a remaining power of the terminal, a temperature of the terminal, and a battery temperature of the terminal.
Optionally, the current time of the terminal is the current time of the terminal.
Alternatively, the current screen state of the terminal may include one of screen brightness, on-screen, off-screen, and sleep.
The channel state information of the channel where the terminal is located may include at least one of the following:
(1) -a reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP) of the terminal;
(2) signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (Signal Interference Noise Ratio, SINR) of the terminal;
(3) the reference signal received quality (Reference Signal Received Quality, RSRQ) of the terminal.
On this basis, the determining module 501 may be configured to: the terminal can determine the working mode according to the communication quality requirements under the target information, wherein different communication quality requirements correspond to the respective working modes.
Alternatively, the communication quality requirement may be embodied in a list manner, for example, the communication quality requirement is lower than the preset requirement corresponding to the first list, and the communication quality requirement is higher than the preset requirement corresponding to the second list. The first list and the second list may store corresponding target information, for example, the first list or the second list stores application related information of some applications or running state of the terminal.

(2) If the working mode includes a connection mode, if the first part of information in the target information meets a first preset condition, the terminal determines that the connection mode is single connection when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is lower than a preset requirement.
Optionally, the determining module 501 may be configured to perform at least one of:
(1) If the working mode includes the number of the receiving antennas, if the first part of information in the target information does not meet the first preset condition, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number if the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is higher than the preset requirement.
(2) If the working mode includes a connection mode, if the first part of information in the target information does not meet the first preset condition, the terminal determines that the connection mode is dual connection when the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is higher than the preset requirement.
Wherein the first partial information may include at least one of:
(1) The method comprises the steps that first part of application related information of an application running in the terminal comprises at least one of application throughput rate, application block error rate, application time delay, application cache state and application blocking state;
(2) A first part of operation state information of the terminal, and the first part of operation state information includes at least one of a remaining power of the terminal, a temperature of the terminal, and a battery temperature of the terminal;
(3) Channel state information of a channel where the terminal is located;
(4) The radio access technology used by the terminal.
Wherein the second partial information may include at least one of:
(1) A second part of application related information of an application running in the terminal, and the second part of application related information includes at least one of identification information and type information;
(2) And second part of operation state information of the terminal, wherein the second part of operation state information comprises at least one of display time of the terminal and current screen state of the terminal.
It will be appreciated that the corresponding first preset condition may be different for different information in the first part of information, which is illustrated below.
In a first example, in a case where the first partial information includes first partial application related information of an application being executed in the terminal:
(1) If the first part of application related information includes an application throughput rate, the first preset condition includes: the downlink communication throughput rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the downlink critical throughput rate, and/or the uplink communication throughput rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the uplink critical throughput rate;
(2) If the first part of application related information includes an application block error rate, the first preset condition includes: the downlink block error rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the downlink critical block error rate, and/or the uplink block error rate of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than or equal to the uplink critical block error rate;
(3) If the first part of application related information includes application delay, the first preset condition includes: the time delay of the first application or the second application running on the terminal is smaller than the critical time delay;
(4) If the first part of application related information includes an application cache state, the first preset condition includes: the percentage of the cache data of the first application or the second application running on the terminal in the cache space is smaller than a first critical percentage;
(5) If the first part of application related information includes an application stuck state, the first preset condition includes: the percentage of the blocking time of the first application or the second application running on the terminal to the running time is smaller than a second critical percentage.
As described above, the first application includes all or part of the applications that the terminal is running; the second application is an application with highest communication quality requirement in the applications running by the terminal, or the second application is an application with highest power consumption in the applications running by the terminal, such as an application with largest occupied screen area in the applications running by the terminal.
In a second example, in the case that the first part of information includes first part of operation state information of the terminal:
(1) If the first part of running state information includes the remaining power of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the residual electric quantity of the terminal is smaller than or equal to an electric quantity critical value;
(2) If the first part of operation state information includes the temperature of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the temperature of the terminal is greater than or equal to a temperature critical value;
(3) If the first part of operation state information includes the battery temperature of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the battery temperature of the terminal is greater than or equal to a temperature threshold.
It can be appreciated that, since the communication method provided in the embodiment of the present application aims to balance the communication quality and the power consumption of the terminal, rather than blindly reduce the power consumption, if the remaining power of the terminal is relatively small (as in the above (1) th aspect, the remaining power of the terminal is less than or equal to the power critical value), there is a need to reduce the power consumption to save energy, then the first number of receiving antennas and/or the single connection may be selected to be used to reduce the power consumption without affecting the communication quality; if the terminal has a high current residual power and there is no need to reduce power consumption to save power, it may not be necessary to use a first number of receive antennas and/or to use a single connection, but to use a second number of receive antennas and/or to use a double connection.
In a third example, in the case where the first partial information includes channel state information of a channel on which the terminal is located:
(1) If the channel state information includes RSRP of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the RSRP of the terminal is larger than or equal to an RSRP critical value;
(2) If the channel state information includes SINR of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the SINR of the terminal is larger than or equal to the SINR critical value;
(3) If the channel state information includes RSRQ of the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the RSRQ of the terminal is greater than or equal to an RSRQ threshold.
It will be appreciated that for some APPs with low communication quality requirements, where the channel conditions are relatively good, the use of a smaller number of receive antennas and/or the use of a single connection tends to be favored, and for such APPs the channel conditions are not good, if the use of a smaller number of receive antennas and/or a single connection is also chosen, this will result in a very low communication quality and will affect the user experience. Because the communication method provided in the embodiments of the present application aims at balancing the communication quality and power consumption of the terminal, rather than sacrificing the communication quality in exchange for the reduction of power consumption. Therefore, the embodiment of the application can firstly judge whether the first part of information in the target information meets the first preset condition, and then determine that the number of the receiving antennas of the terminal tendency is the first number and/or the connection mode of the tendency is single connection based on the second part of information in the target information if the first part of information meets the first preset condition. For APP with high communication quality requirements, generally, a larger number of receive antennas and/or dual connectivity is preferred, and in a small probability, such as when the channel condition is relatively poor, a smaller number of receive antennas and/or a single connectivity is preferred.
In a fourth example, in a case where the first part of information includes a radio access technology used by the terminal, the first preset condition includes: the radio access technology used by the terminal is a new air interface NR of an independent networking (Standalone Architecture, SA).
In summary, whether the information in the first part of information meets the first preset condition is judged to judge whether the terminal has a requirement of energy saving or not, or whether the power consumption can be reduced by reducing the number of the receiving antennas and/or selecting single connection is judged to save energy, if so, the number of the receiving antennas is determined to be the first number, and/or the connection mode is determined to be single connection; if not, a greater number of receive antennas and/or dual connectivity is used, and in the unlikely case, a lesser number of receive antennas and/or single connectivity is used.
In the third embodiment, in the case where the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the specific implementation manner of "the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number", in the case where the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection manner is a single connection ", in the case where the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the second number", in the case where the communication quality requirement under the second part of information in the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection manner is a dual connection ", is similar to the specific implementation manner of" in the first embodiment, in the case where the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the receiving antennas is the first number, in the case where the communication quality requirement under the target information is lower than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the connection manner is a single connection, in the case where the communication quality requirement under the target information is higher than the preset requirement, the terminal determines that the number of the second number of the terminal determines that the receiving antennas is not higher than the specific connection requirement.
According to the communication device provided by the embodiment of the application, the terminal can actively determine the working mode according to the target information, such as at least one of the number of receiving days and the connection mode, and work according to the determined working mode instead of the fixed working mode, so that better balance can be made between the communication quality and the power consumption, and the power consumption of the terminal is reduced on the premise of ensuring the communication quality.
