A multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal refers to a mobile terminal that can insert multiple SIM cards and these SIM cards can be in a standby state at the same time. A common multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal includes dual SIM dual standby (DSDS). Mobile terminal. The so-called SIM card is the abbreviation of Subscriber Identification Module (Chinese is the customer identification module), also known as user identification card, smart card and so on. The fact that multiple SIM cards are in the standby state at the same time means that multiple SIM cards are in the usable state at the same time, or at the same time, the SIM card is in the usable state or the power-on state, and some SIM cards are in an unusable state or Off state.

In the prior art, when multiple SIM card systems are in standby state, they work independently, that is, each SIM card is independent of other components or devices. However, when the information required for multiple SIM cards is the same, independent work obviously causes a problem of large power consumption of the mobile terminal.

After the PLMN is determined, the signal strengths of the frequency points of the neighboring cells are respectively measured by communication with the surrounding base stations, and the frequency points belong to the determined PLMN, and a suitable cell is selected for camping. Since each SIM card needs to obtain the PLMN information stored in the mobile terminal, and needs to separately measure the signal strength information of each frequency point of the neighboring cell, if the information is the same for the two SIM cards, respectively, the acquisition will obviously Excessive resources for mobile terminals.

Big problem. The following provides a dual-card dual-standby mobile terminal as an example to introduce the technical solution provided in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, the dual card dual standby mobile terminal may include a first SIM card system and a second SIM card system, and the SIM card system is a system having components such as a SIM card, a signal transmitting end, a signal receiving end, a processor, and a memory. .

The first signal transmitting end and the second signal transmitting end are configured to send a signal to the base station; the first signal receiving end and the second signal receiving end are configured to receive the signal sent by the base station.

The first memory is configured to store the first program, and when the first processor executes the first program, the following operations are performed: when the first SIM card system acquires network information required for performing a network communication event, performing network communication according to the network information Events and store network information in storage units.

The second memory is configured to store the second program, and the second processor, when executing the second program, performs the following operations: when the second SIM card system needs to perform a network communication event, the second SIM card system utilizes the network stored in the storage unit Information performs network communication events.

The storage unit may be part of the first memory or the second memory, or may be other memories.

The first processor and the second processor may be the same processor or different processors; the first memory and the second memory may be the same memory or different memories. The first processor and the second processor may be a central processing unit (CPU), or may be a GPU, a digital signal processor (DSP), and a control chip in the communication unit (for example, A combination of baseband chips).

That is, before the second SIM card system performs the network communication event, the first SIM card system has stored the network information required to perform the network communication event in the storage unit, so the second SIM card system does not need to acquire the network information again. The network information only needs to extract the network information from the storage unit for execution, thereby reducing the power consumption of the dual-card dual-standby mobile terminal and improving the efficiency of network communication event processing.

Referring to FIG. 1 , it is a flowchart of a network information processing method for a multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The network information processing method of the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

S101: The first SIM card system acquires network information required to perform a network communication event, performs a network communication event according to the network information, and stores the network information.

S102: When the second SIM card system needs to perform a network communication event, the second SIM card system performs the network communication event by using the stored network information.

The network communication event refers to an event in which network communication occurs between the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal and the base station. The network communication event may be a boot search network, a broken network re-search, a cell reselection, a network connection state switch, and a paging message monitor.

As in the foregoing, in the embodiment, when the network communication event performed by the first SIM card system and the network communication event performed by the second SIM card system are the same, the network information acquired by the first SIM card system to perform the network communication event is Can be shared to the second SIM card system. Network information refers to information in the process of network communication.

The following describes the network communication event in combination with two application scenarios: the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator; the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to different operators.

Before specifically introducing these network communication events, first introduce the operator, the resident network information, the cell search information, and the resident cell information.

Operators refer to network service providers such as mobile, China Unicom, and telecommunications. Each SIM card generally belongs to only one carrier. The operator may, for example, be based on an international mobile subscriber identification number (IMSI), a local public land mobile network (HPLMN), an equivalent home network (EHPLMN), or the like. Information is identified. For example, the fourth and fifth digits of IMSI are mobile network code (MNC), the MNC of the telecom is 03, the MNC of the mobile is 00, and the MNC of Unicom is 01. In general, when the first SIM card and the second SIM card are installed in the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal, the above-mentioned operator can be read by the processor in the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal.

In an actual application, it may be determined whether the operator to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs are the same according to the information mentioned above. For example, the respective IMSI can be read from the first SIM card and the second SIM card, Extracting the respective MNCs from the IMSI, if the MNC corresponding to the first SIM card is 03, and the MNC corresponding to the second SIM card is 00, it is considered that the two are not in the same carrier; if the MNC corresponding to the second SIM card is 03, They are considered to belong to the same operator. Of course, the numbering of the MNC by different operators needs to refer to the local network's allocation rules.

The resident network information refers to the information of the network where the SIM card system can reside, including supported network standards, supported frequency points, etc., which can also be read after the SIM card is installed in the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal. The network standard refers to the type of network of a certain generation, such as 2G GSM (global system for mobile communication), 4G LTE, 3G UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System), 2G CDMA (code division) Multiple access, code division multiple access) and so on. If the operator to which the first SIM card belongs is the same as the operator to which the second SIM card belongs, the network modes supported by the first SIM card may be the same or different. If the two SIM cards support the same network format, the supported frequencies will be the same; if the supported network formats are different, the supported frequencies will be different.

The cell search information refers to the SIM card searching in the network according to the frequency point supported by the mobile terminal, and acquiring the cell signal strength information and the cell frequency point information. In the same cell, the frequency corresponding to the same carrier is the same. Usually, the frequency of an operator in a cell is generally one.

The camped cell information refers to information of a cell in which the SIM card resides. After acquiring the cell search information, the appropriate cell is selected to camp according to certain rules. The camped cell information includes, for example, the signal strength of the camped cell, the frequency of the camped cell, and the like.

Next, the network communication event and the shared network information are introduced for the case where the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator.

1, boot search network

The boot search network refers to the search operation performed by the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal after being turned on, which is generally performed automatically, and does not require user confirmation. As described in the background, search operations typically require selection of PLMNs and cells.

As mentioned above, PLMN refers to the public land mobile network, which is equivalent to MCC (Mobile Country Code) plus MNC (Mobile Network Code). One operator in a country generally has only one PLMN. For example, China Mobile's PLMN is 46000, China Unicom's PLMN is 46001, of which 46 stands for China, 000 stands for mobile, and 001 stands for China Unicom.

For a particular mobile terminal, it is usually necessary to maintain several different types of PLMN lists, each with multiple PLMNs. These PLMN lists include, for example, RPLMN (Registered PLMN, Registered PLMN), EPLMN (Equivalent PLMN, Equivalent PLMN), EHPLMN (Equivalent Home PLMN), HPLMN (Home PLMN, Home PLMN), VPLMN (Visited PLMN) , visit PLMN) and so on. Each PLMN list has a corresponding priority, and is selected in the order of priority of the list when the PLMN is selected. The selection process is as follows: the mobile terminal performs cell search according to the frequency points it supports, finds the cell with the strongest signal at each frequency point, and then reads the system message of the cell to determine the PLMN corresponding to the cell. If the mobile terminal determines a plurality of PLMNs according to the frequency points it supports, a PLMN is selected from the preset conditions to complete the selection of the PLMN.

Since the PLMN represents the operator, if the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator, the PLMN selected by the first SIM card system is the same as the PLMN selected by the second SIM card system, so the first The PLMN selected by a SIM card system is stored, so that the second SIM card system does not need to perform the PLMN selection action, but can directly use the stored PLMN as the PLMN of its own choice.

After selecting the appropriate PLMN, the mobile terminal needs to perform cell selection based on the cell signal strength information searched during the cell search, and the purpose is to select the cell that belongs to the best signal in the PLMN to camp.

From a protocol perspective, a non-access stratum (NAS) performs a storage operation, and an access stratum (hereinafter referred to as AS) performs an operation of selecting a PLMN and a cell.

Since the carrier to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs are the same, if the network formats supported by the two are the same, the supported frequency points are also the same. In the cell search, since the search is based on the frequency point, if the frequency points supported by the two SIM cards are the same, the cell information acquired by the two in the cell search process, including the cell signal strength information and the cell frequency point information. , all the same. Therefore, when the cell search is performed, the first SIM card may store the acquired cell information, so that the second SIM card does not need to perform the cell search again, but may use the stored cell information to perform cell selection, and then Host the appropriate cell.

The network information required by the mobile terminal when performing the power-on search includes: the selected PLMN in the PLMN selection process, the camped cell information, and/or the cell information acquired in the cell search process.

2, broken network re-search

The network re-search refers to the process in which the SIM card is re-networked when the SIM card cannot communicate with the originally connected base station for some reason.

The network re-search can be divided into two scenarios, one scenario is that the first SIM card is in the network, and the second SIM card is disconnected; in another scenario, the first SIM card and the second SIM card are disconnected. The latter scene is basically the same as the scenario of booting the web, and will not be described here. For the previous scenario, if the first SIM card and the second SIM card are in the same cell in the network search phase, when the second SIM card is disconnected from the network, the cell where the first SIM card resides can be selected. Resident. When the second SIM card system is disconnected, the cell where the first SIM card system resides may not match the resident cell information stored at the time of powering on, so when the second SIM card system is found to be disconnected, the first SIM card may be notified immediately. The system saves the cell information of the currently camped cell. Alternatively, the manner of periodically storing the cell information of the currently camped cell of the first SIM card system may be adopted, so as to achieve the purpose of timely networking after the second SIM card system is disconnected from the network.

If the first SIM card and the second SIM card are different in the cell in the booting network stage, the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator and the network standard is the same, then the second SIM card may reside in the first Within the cell in which the SIM card currently resides, or the second SIM card uses the cell information acquired during the booting network phase to re-select the cell. If the cell information obtained by the booting network cannot match the current location of the second SIM card, the cell search is performed based on the frequency points supported by the second SIM card.

If the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator and the network system is different, the second SIM card performs a cell search again.

The network information required by the mobile terminal to perform the network re-search includes: the cell information acquired during the cell search process and/or the resident cell information.

3, cell re-election

Cell reselection refers to the reselection of a cell. Triggering cell reselection generally includes two cases. One is that when both the first SIM card system and the second SIM card system are connected to the base station, there is no signal mutual interaction with the base station. Transmission, that is, cell reselection when the first SIM card system and the second SIM card system are in an idle state. The other is that the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal will continuously change the signal strength of the received cell as the user moves. When the user moves to the cell edge, the signal attenuation is severe. When the attenuation is large enough, the cell weight is triggered. Selected operation.

The cell selection in the cell reselection is basically the same as the cell selection in the booting network phase. If the operator to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs are the same, and the network formats supported by the two SIM cards are the same, the second SIM card can use the cell information acquired by the first SIM card during the cell search. The cell selects and camps, or resides directly in the cell in which the first SIM card resides.

The network information required by the mobile terminal to perform cell reselection includes: cell information acquired during cell search and/or resident cell information.

4, network connection state switching

The network connection state handover and the cell reselection are different in that the network connection state handover is a cell selection when the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal is in a connected state, and the cell reselection is a cell selection in an idle state.

Specifically, when the first SIM card system receives the measurement control message sent by the base station and corresponds to the first SIM card system, the cell is measured, that is, the signal strength and the frequency of the cell are measured. And reporting the cell measurement information to the base station. After receiving the measurement report, the base station sends a connection reconfiguration message to the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal. After receiving the connection reconfiguration message, the first SIM card system performs a network handover operation, that is, camps on the cell corresponding to the reconfiguration message, implements handover to the camped cell, and obtains cell measurement information (that is, the search cell is obtained). Cell information) for storage.

If the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same carrier, and the network systems of the two are the same, the second SIM card system does not need to perform the same cell measurement operation, and only needs to report the pre-stored cell measurement information to the base station. And then wait for the base station to decide whether to perform the switching operation. If the handover operation is to be performed, the first SIM card system receives the reconfiguration message sent by the base station, and camps on the cell corresponding to the reconfiguration message to complete the camped cell handover.

If the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator, and the network systems of the two are different, the second SIM card needs to perform cell measurement separately.

The network information required by the mobile terminal to perform network connection state switching includes: cell information acquired during the cell search process.

5, paging message monitoring

This embodiment is applicable to the application scenario of the non-search network, such as paging message monitoring, in addition to the application scenario of the foregoing search network. The paging massage refers to a message sent by the mobile service switching center to the mobile terminal through the base station during the paging process, in order to find a mobile terminal within a certain range. For the mobile terminal, the paging message needs to be monitored so that the response can be given in time when the paging message is received.

The mobile terminal can listen to the paging message from the operator to which it belongs, and the paging message corresponds to the SIM card. In this embodiment, the first SIM card system listens to the paging message, and if it listens to the paging message about the first SIM card system, responds in time. If the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator, when the first SIM card system listens to the paging message corresponding to the second SIM card system, the paging message may be stored and notified The second SIM card system responds based on the paging message.

The network information required by the mobile terminal to perform paging message monitoring includes: a paging message.

In summary, when the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator, whether the network information is directly stored or not depends on the network communication event.

If the network communication event includes the paging message monitoring, the network information is directly stored when the operator to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs.

If the network communication event includes the power-on search, the network re-search, the cell re-selection, and/or the network connection state switching, when the operator to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs are the same, it is also required to determine Whether the resident network information of the first SIM card system and the resident network information of the second SIM card system are the same, and if the same, the network information is stored.

What is described above is the same situation as the operator to which the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong, in which case the network information that the first SIM card system and the second SIM card system can share is rich, including PLMN selection. The selected PLMN in the process, the cell information acquired during the cell search process, the resident cell information, and the paging message.

When the operators to which the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong are different, the network information that can be shared is limited, and the sharing scenario is also small. For example, in the cell search process, if it is found that the frequency point corresponding to the PLMN selected by the first SIM card system does not match the searched cell frequency point, the PLMN is re-selected, and the mode becomes no service (out of service). , referred to as OOS) mode.

When the first SIM card system and the second SIM card system are both in the OOS mode, the first SIM card system needs to search the network in the full frequency band, and the first SIM card can store the cell information obtained during the network search process. In order for the second SIM card system to perform cell selection based on the cell information. In order to improve the efficiency of the cell selection by the second SIM card system, the cell information stored by the first SIM card may be started, that is, the cell information that may not be applicable to the second SIM card system is not stored. For example, when it is determined that a certain cell is not applicable to the first SIM card system, since the operator to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs are different, the cell may support the second SIM card to which the second SIM card belongs. The operator can store the cell information of the cell at this time, so that the second SIM card performs cell selection according to the cell information. Further, the first SIM card system may determine, according to the operator to which the second SIM card belongs and its network standard, whether the cell is applicable to the second SIM card, and if applicable, store the cell information of the cell for the second The SIM card system camps on the cell based on the cell information. The efficiency of cell selection by the second SIM card system is improved by reducing the cell information of the cell that needs to be filtered by the second SIM card system during cell selection.

In addition, some network standard protocols stipulate that after searching for a certain frequency matching the cell, the SIM card system needs to parse the frequency point to know whether it is applicable. When the first SIM card system is in the OOS mode, but the second SIM card system is in the network, if the operator to which the first SIM card belongs and the operator to which the second SIM card belongs are different, the first SIM card is in the full-band search network. When searching for the frequency of the cell where the second SIM card resides, the frequency may not be parsed and skipped directly to save power and improve efficiency.

The above describes several network communication events and the execution mode corresponding to each network communication event. The timing of the second SIM card system to perform network communication events is introduced below.

After the first SIM card system acquires the network information required to perform the network communication event, the network information is stored, so that when the second SIM card system reaches the timing of performing the network communication event, the network communication is performed by using the stored network information. event. The timing at which the second SIM card system performs a network communication event may be after the network information is stored. That is, it can be triggered or not triggered immediately.

If it is triggered immediately, the network information is immediately stored in the storage unit, and the second SIM card system is immediately notified to read the network information. In order to achieve the goal, a first preset identifier (for example, set to 1) may be set for the network information when the network information is stored. When the network information of the first preset identifier in the storage unit is found, the second SIM card system is immediately notified to read the network information.

If the network information is not triggered immediately, the network information in the storage unit may be periodically read. When the network information of the first preset identifier is found in the storage unit, the second SIM card system is notified to read the network information.

In order to prevent the second SIM card system from repeatedly reading the same network information, the network information may be invalidated after the second SIM card system reads the network information. The means of failure may be, for example, changing the flag bit from the first preset flag to the second preset flag (eg, from 1 to 0).

In addition, in some cases, the second SIM card system does not read the network information in time due to the failure or the moving speed of the mobile terminal is too fast, and the network communication event is not executed in time, thereby causing the stored network information for the second SIM. The card system is ineffective, and in order not to waste resources, such network information needs to be invalidated. For example, by recording the time when the network information is stored, and continuously calculating the time difference between the current time and the storage time of the network information, if the time difference does not satisfy the preset condition, the network information is invalidated. The means of failure can be seen above. And if the time difference satisfies the preset condition, the second SIM card system is allowed to perform the network communication event by using the stored network information.

Optionally, the format of the network information stored in the storage unit is as follows:

In summary, since the first SIM card system and the second SIM card system share the network information to perform the network communication event, the step of acquiring the network information by the second SIM card system is omitted, thereby saving power consumption. For example, suppose the average power consumption of the LTE search network card is 115 mA. If the prior art is used, the average power consumption of the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal search network is 115 mA × n, and n is the number of SIM cards; In an embodiment, the average power consumption of the multi-card multi-standby mobile terminal search network is only 115 mA.
