具体实施方式
本发明实施例提供了一种功耗控制方法,该方法可以适用于例如手机、平板电脑、车载机等终端;该方法的特点在于,由用户来设定其所希望的目标使用时长,所述的目标使用时长例如是“计划再继续使用终端20小时”,采用本发明实施例的功耗控制方法,将根据用户设定的目标使用时长,结合终端的当前使用状态(比如终端是否在进行高功耗的操作、或者是否正在启用高功耗的功能等),来判断继续当前终端的使用状态是否仍然能够达到所述的目标使用时长。如果不能达到,则本发明实施例的功耗控制方法将对终端进行功耗控制处理,以实现所述目标使用时长为准。这种方法是以用户设定的目标使用时长作为功耗控制的目的,所以能够满足用户需求(该需求例如是继续使用终端20小时)且节省了终端功耗。
实施例一
图1为本发明功耗控制方法一实施例的流程示意图,如图1所示,该方法可以包括:
101、终端获取用户设定的目标使用时长;
例如,用户设定的目标使用时长可以是“20小时”,即希望继续使用终端20小时。
102、终端根据当前的使用状态计算终端的预计使用时长;
其中,终端当前的使用状态,例如可以是,终端正在进行上网操作;或者,用户正在使用自己的终端(比如手机)进行电子书的阅读等。
终端在根据使用状态计算预计使用时长时,例如可以是根据所述的使用状态对应的耗电量,比如上网1小时耗电多少,以及当前终端剩余的电量,就可以计算出终端还可以使用多长时间,即得到预计使用时长。
103、若所述目标使用时长大于所述预计使用时长,则所述终端进行功耗控制处理。
例如,假设用户设定的目标使用时长是20小时,而在102中计算得到的预计使用时长是10小时,则目标使用时长大于预计使用时长,表明终端用不了目标使用时长规定的时长,终端当前的功耗量比较大,所以终端据此可以进行功耗控制处理,以减少功耗量,延长终端使用时间,以使终端的使用时间达到目标使用时长。
此外,终端在具体进行功耗控制处理时,可以依据用户设定的目标使用时长进行分析,后续采取何种措施(比如不再上网或者关闭终端正在运行的导航功能),才能够实现设定的目标使用时长20小时,即以实现目标使用时长为功耗控制处理的目标。
本实施例的功耗控制方法,通过根据所获取的用户设定的目标使用时长,进行功耗控制处理,使得该功耗控制处理是以用户的所述目标使用时长为目的而进行的,能够使终端的使用时间达到所述目标使用时长,从而不仅节约功耗,也满足了用户的需求。
下面将通过几种可选的实施例方式,对本发明实施例的功耗控制方法进行进一步的详细说明。
实施例二
本实施例中,终端在确定当前终端的使用状态使得用户设定的目标使用时长无法实现时,将对终端进行功耗降低控制。
其中,所述当前终端使用状态指的是,例如终端在使用何种终端功能(比如导航功能、地图功能等),或者终端当前正在运行用户启动的何种操作(比如游戏、上网、阅读等)。所述的使用状态使得用户设定的目标使用时长无法实现指的是,例如用户设定的目标使用时长是“继续使用终端20小时”,则如 果终端继续当前的开启导航功能的状态,或者终端继续开启用户使用的阅读或上网操作等,将无法使得终端延续20小时,可能只有10小时终端将耗尽电量,即用户的目标使用时长无法实现。本实施例中,对终端进行功耗降低控制例如是给出用户操作建议,如果用户按照该操作建议执行,将可以实现原定的目标使用时长。也即,该用户操作建议用于向用户提示建议的操作,该建议的操作在被执行的情况下,终端可运行原定的目标使用时长。
如下列举一个具体的功耗控制的例子:
图2为本发明功耗控制方法另一实施例的流程示意图,如图2所示,该方法可以包括:
201、终端获取用户设定的目标使用时长;
例如,终端可以设计供用户输入其目标使用时长的输入框,用户在该输入框中输入其目标使用时长;可以假设用户设定的目标使用时长是“20小时”,即希望继续使用终端20小时。
202、终端获取当前终端使用状态;
其中,如上所述的,终端使用状态可以包括操作信息、终端功能等多种使用情况;本实施例是假设终端获取用户当前的操作信息,该操作信息指的是,比如进行上网操作;例如,本实施例可以假设该终端是手机,用户使用自己的手机进行上网,当然也可以是使用手机进行电子书的阅读等其他操作。
203、终端根据当前的使用状态计算终端的预计使用时长;
具体的,终端在202中获取终端当前的使用状态后,终端可以根据该使用状态接着计算终端的预计使用时长,即执行102步骤相同的处理。本步骤中,所述的使用状态是操作信息,终端内可以预先配置有多种操作信息与耗电量的关系,比如如下的表格1所示的,操作信息与耗电量之间的换算关系:
表1操作信息与耗电量
操作信息耗电量(单位:mAH)
上网1小时a
游戏1小时b
阅读1小时c
上述的表1相当于一个耗电模型,记录了一些操作行为的耗电量。本实施 例假设用户在使用手机进行上网操作,手机就可以根据该耗电模型,以及当前剩余电量计算出如果该上网操作进行继续,将在多长时间内耗电完毕,比如再过5小时将耗电完毕,则可以得到该上网操作对应的预计使用时长是“5小时”。
204、终端比较预计使用时长与用户设定的目标使用时长,判断目标使用时长是否大于预计使用时长;
本步骤中,终端会判断在203中计算得到的预计使用时长与在201中获取的目标使用时长之间的关系,以确定下当前的操作信息是否使得终端的预计使用时间小于所述目标使用时长;
例如,上述的203得到的预计使用时长是“5小时”,在201中获取的用户设定的目标使用时长是“20小时”,预计使用时长小于所述目标使用时长,则可以确定当前操作信息即上网操作的继续将使得所述目标使用时长无法实现。
本步骤中,若判断结果是所述目标使用时长大于所述预计使用时长,则终端继续执行205;否则,终端可以不做处理。
205、终端生成目标提醒信息,所述目标提醒信息包括:与实现所述目标使用时长相适应的操作建议;
该用户操作建议用于向用户提示建议的操作,该建议的操作在被执行的情况下,终端可运行原定的目标使用时长。
本实施例中,在204中的判断结果是目标使用时长大于所述预计使用时长时,则本步骤终端进行功耗控制处理。在本步骤中,所述的功耗控制处理,可以是终端生成目标提醒信息,提示用户进行操作。
例如,当手机发现用户如果继续上网的操作行为,将使得用户设定的目标使用时长无法实现,即手机将无法继续使用20小时,则手机可以显示给用户目标提醒信息。
该目标提醒信息例如可以参见图3,图3为本发明功耗控制方法另一实施例中的交互建议示意图。手机生成的目标提醒信息可以包括一些操作建议,如果用户根据该操作建议进行终端使用,将可能仍然能够实现原定的目标使用时长;或者用户也可以选择忽略原定的目标使用时长。
为了在需要的时候能够生成类似图3所示的目标提醒信息,手机可以在之前用户使用过程中就记录一些用户的习惯行为,比如用户经常进行上网、阅读 或者游戏等,并记录这些习惯行为对应的功耗评估,比如某种操作行为耗电量多少。这样手机就可以根据其记录的用户使用手机的习惯行为,结合耗电量的计算,给出与用户习惯行为相关的操作建议,比如像图3所示那样的,建议用户继续上网1小时。
终端生成目标提醒信息之后,接下来可以继续执行206操作;
206、终端获取用户选择的操作建议,并继续进行功耗监控。
例如,用户选择了图3中所示的A1建议,继续上网1小时,则手机将继续进行功耗监控,这里的功耗监控指的是,终端将继续获取用户的操作信息,并据此计算根据该操作信息终端预计还能使用多长时间,可以将这个时间例如称为当前剩余使用时长;并且终端会将该当前剩余使用时长与剩余目标使用时长做比较,以确定是否能够实现当初设定的目标使用时长。上述的剩余目标使用时长是步骤201中获取的目标使用时长减去从获取时到当前的这段间隔时间,比如,最初设定的目标使用时长是20小时,到当前计算剩余使用时长时共过去了2小时,那么剩余目标使用时长则是18小时。当终端发现又出现了新的影响目标使用时长实现的使用时,可以再次提醒用户。
此外,当用户选择了上述的A1建议后,后续终端继续进行功耗监控时对用户的提醒可以是定期的;比如,用户的确按照A1建议继续上网1小时后就不再上网了,终端计算后发现此时原定的目标使用时长是能够实现的,将不再提醒用户;用户也可能并没有按照A1建议执行,在上网1小时后仍然继续上网,则终端就会发现终端使用时间不能达到目标使用时长,可能会在用户上网2小时时提醒下用户“您能够继续使用终端3小时”;这里的3小时即为终端的当前剩余使用时长;或者,用户在收到这个提示后仍然不管,仍然继续上网,则终端可能会在用户上网3小时时再次提醒下用户“您能够继续使用终端1小时”。即用户是否按照建议执行,或者说用户具体如何使用终端是由用户决定的,而终端只是进行功耗监控,并在某个时间定期的提示用户。
实施例三
本实施例中,当手机检测到用户的上网操作将使得其设定目标使用时长不能实现时,手机还可以进行控制终端功能,比如可以将某些终端功能进行关闭或者降低终端功能的功耗。
图4为本发明功耗控制方法又一实施例的流程示意图,如图4所示,该方 法可以包括:
401、终端获取用户设定的目标使用时长;
例如,可以假设用户设定的目标使用时长是“20小时”,即希望继续使用终端20小时。
402、终端获取当前终端使用状态;
403、终端根据当前的使用状态计算终端的预计使用时长;
例如,终端可以获取用户当前的操作信息,并根据预配置的所述操作信息与功耗的关系,计算所述操作信息对应的预计使用时长。假设本步骤中得到的用户上网对应的预计使用时长是“5小时”。
404、终端比较预计使用时长与用户设定的目标使用时长,判断目标使用时长是否大于预计使用时长;
例如,上述的403得到的预计使用时长是“5小时”,在401中获取的用户设定的目标使用时长是“20小时”,预计使用时长小于目标使用时长,则可以确定当前操作信息即上网操作的继续将使得目标使用时长无法实现。
本步骤中,若判断结果是所述目标使用时长大于所述预计使用时长,则终端继续执行405。
405、终端关闭终端功能或者降低终端功能的功耗;
本实施例中,在404中的判断结果是目标使用时长大于所述预计使用时长时,则本步骤终端进行功耗控制处理。与上一个实施例不同的是,在本实施例中,终端进行的功耗控制处理,可以是关闭终端功能或者降低终端功能的功耗。
例如,当遇到影响目标使用时长实现的情况时,手机可以将GPS功能关闭、或者休眠地图服务功能,或者降低某些功能的功耗,比如降低屏幕亮度、降低屏幕分辨率、切换成黑白屏、缩小屏幕显示空间等,这些操作都可以使得手机的功耗降低。
可选的,手机对上述功能的控制,可以是在当前手机使用状态影响到目标使用时长的实现时,自动执行功能控制,比如自动将屏幕亮度降低、或者自动关闭GPS功能等;或者也可以是,提示给用户,比如“为确保实现预定目标使用时长,将降低屏幕亮度,是否同意?”由用户来选择是否执行功能控制。
不论是何种方式,比如自动的或者经由用户确认的功能控制,手机中是存在多种功能的,具体要控制何种功能,可以按照功能的优先级顺序来控制。例 如,按照优先级由高到低的顺序,依次是GPS功能、屏幕显示功能、地图服务功能,在控制功能时,可以先控制优先级高的功能。那么所述的功能的优先级顺序,可以是手机系统默认的即预先配置的,或者也可以是由用户设置的。此外,上述功能也可以进行分类,比如屏幕显示功能可以作为大类,其下层还可以划分为屏幕刷新频率、屏幕亮度、画面分辨率等小类;在进行功能控制时,可以在大类下选择更具体的小类进行控制,该大类下的各小类也可以按照优先级顺序来选择。
实施例四
本实施例中,为了使得手机的功能控制更加灵活,在对手机功能进行控制之后,还可以根据用户的唤醒指令重新启用手机功能或按正常功耗运行手机功能。
例如,为了避免对用户设定目标使用时长的影响,手机关闭了地图服务功能。当用户确实需要再次使用该功能时,手机可以为用户提供重新开启该功能的途径,比如用户可以通过选择手机设定某个启用的选项来触发该地图服务功能的重新开启,手机在接收到用户的该唤醒指令后,将启动之前已经关闭的地图服务功能。
可选的,对于已经实施控制的手机功能,不仅可以如上述的根据用户的唤醒指令进行重新启用,还可以由手机根据终端状态自动执行功能启用或按正常功耗运行终端功能。
例如,所述的终端状态可以是,手机的剩余电量等,比如用户的手机本来剩余电量已经不多,设定的目标使用时长无法实现即不能再继续使用20小时,所以之前手机采取了功能控制,关闭了地图服务功能;用户后来对手机进行了充电,使得手机电量又比较充足,所以手机此时可以根据手机新的电量自动重新开启地图服务功能。
本实施例所述的对手机功能实施控制,包括关闭手机功能,使手机功能功耗降低(具体包括使手机功能休眠)等。又例如,为了避免对用户设定目标使用时长的影响,用户降低了屏幕亮度。之后,可以根据用户的唤醒指令,或者当手机的电量重新充足后,可以再次按照正常的屏幕亮度进行显示。
实施例五
本实施例中,用户最初设定的目标使用时长是可以随时进行修改的;比如, 当手机提示用户当前的操作行为影响目标使用时长的实现时,手机可以提供用户修改目标使用时长的途径,比如通过一个输入框使得用户重新输入新的目标使用时长,比如用户将原定的目标使用时长“20小时”修改为新的目标使用时长“10小时”。或者,即使未收到手机的提醒,用户也可以随时主动对其功能目标进行修改,比如可以找到手机中的目标使用时长的设定选项进行修改。
可选的,手机还可以根据当前的使用情况周期性的提示用户手机的当前剩余使用时长。比如,手机可以周期性的显示提示信息“按照当前使用状态,您的手机还可以继续使用5小时”,即当前剩余使用时长是5小时。
为用户提供修改目标使用时长的灵活性以及周期性提示用户预计使用时长,将使得用户对目标使用时长的了解和控制更加方便。
实施例六
本实施例中,目标使用时长也可以是周期性设定的,并不一定是一直不变。比如,根据用户的工作特点需要,或者用户的手机使用习惯,该用户在一周的周一至周三通常需要手机使用时间稍短一些,比如其可以设定目标使用时长在这几天是“10小时”,因为这几天用手机比较多,同时也为了满足工作需要,10小时的目标使用时长是用户所需求的。而在一周的后几天比如周四至周日,用户的工作量比较少,所以需要手机使用时间长一些,比如其可以设定目标使用时长在这几天是“20小时”。手机就可以将用户的这些不同时段不同的目标使用时长进行记录,并结合时间自动调整为与时间对应的目标使用时长,进一步增加用户对目标使用时长设定的灵活性。
实施例七
