As people speed, latency, high-speed mobility, energy efficiency and the future of life in the pursuit of the business of diversity, complexity, for the third Generation Partnership Project ^{(3 rd Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP} ) ISO began the development of 5G . The main application scenarios of 5G are: Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), Massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) ).

On the one hand, eMBB still targets users to obtain multimedia content, services and data, and its demand is growing very rapidly. On the other hand, because eMBB may be deployed in different scenarios, such as indoors, urban areas, rural areas, etc., its capabilities and requirements are also quite different, so it cannot be generalized and must be analyzed in detail in conjunction with specific deployment scenarios. Typical applications of URLLC include: industrial automation, power automation, telemedicine operations (surgery), traffic safety protection, etc. Typical features of mMTC include: high connection density, small data volume, delay-insensitive services, low-cost modules and long service life.

RRC status

In order to reduce air interface signaling, quickly restore wireless connections, and quickly restore data services, 5G defines a new radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) state, that is, the RRC inactive (RRC_INACTIVE) state. This state is different from the RRC idle (RRC_IDLE) state and the RRC active (RRC_ACTIVE) state. in,

1) RRC_IDLE state (abbreviated as idle state): mobility is cell selection and reselection based on terminal equipment, paging is initiated by the Core Network (CN), and the paging area is configured by the CN. There is no terminal device context on the base station side, and no RRC connection.

2) RRC_CONNECTED state (referred to as connected state for short): there is an RRC connection, and there is a terminal device context on the base station side and the terminal device side. The network side knows that the location of the terminal equipment is of a specific cell level. Mobility is the mobility controlled by the network side.

3) RRC_INACTIVE state (abbreviated as inactive state): mobility is cell selection reselection based on terminal equipment, there is a connection between CN-NR, the context of terminal equipment exists on a certain base station, and paging is triggered by RAN The RAN-based paging area is managed by the RAN, and the network side knows that the location of the terminal equipment is based on the RAN paging area level.

Dual SIM Dual Standby/Dual Network Dual Standby

Dual-card dual-standby mobile phone means that a mobile phone can have two communication cards installed at the same time, and the two communication cards are both in the standby state. Dual card dual standby generally refers to dual card dual standby of the same network standard, such as dual card dual standby of GSM network, dual card dual standby of CDMA network, and dual card dual standby of PHS network.

Dual-network dual-standby means that a mobile phone can be inserted into two communication cards of different networks at the same time and turned on at the same time. Users can make, receive, and send and receive short messages without switching networks.

At present, mobile phones generally do not support pure dual-transmit and dual-receive (referred to as dual-pass for short). Dual-transmit and dual-receive means that the mobile phone simultaneously transmits and receives data on two networks through two communication cards. Generally speaking, most mobile phones only support single sending and single receiving or single sending and double receiving, which means that the mobile phone can only perform the services on one communication card at a certain time. However, the realization of dual communication is a trend in the development of future mobile phones. In 5G, for two communication cards of mobile phones that support dual-card dual-standby or dual-network dual-standby, one communication card can reside in the LTE cell, and the other communication card can reside in the NR cell; or, two Both communication cards reside in the NR cell. On the other hand, the two communication cards can be communication cards of the same operator, or communication cards of different operators.

To realize dual communication in a mobile phone, there will be a problem of resource sharing and allocation of two communication cards. When a communication card in the mobile phone is in an idle or inactive state, and the mobile phone wants to communicate with the corresponding network through the communication card When communicating, how to determine the communication resources corresponding to the network needs to be clear. To this end, the following technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are proposed.

The following embodiment takes two communication cards as an example for description, and it is not limited to this, and the solution of more than two communication cards is also applicable to the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application.

It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not limit the types of the first communication card and the second communication card. For example, the first communication card and the second communication card are both Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) cards. For example, the first communication card and the second communication card are both Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) cards. For example, the first communication card is a SIM card, and the second communication card is a USIM card. For example, the first communication card is a USIM card, and the second communication card is a SIM card.

On the other hand, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the network types supported by the first communication card and the second communication card. For example, the first communication card supports an LTE network (that is, the first base station corresponding to the first communication card is an LTE base station). The second communication card supports the NR network (that is, the second base station corresponding to the second communication card is an NR base station). For example, both the first communication card and the second communication card support the NR network (that is, the first communication card, the second communication card, and the second base station corresponding to the second communication card are all NR base stations).

On the other hand, the embodiments of the present application do not impose restrictions on the operators to which the first communication card and the second communication card belong. For example, the first communication card and the second communication card may belong to the same operator, or they may belong to different operators. .
