Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a wireless communication system to which an embodiment of the present application can be applied. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network device 12. Among them, the terminal 11 may also be called a user terminal or a user equipment (UE, User Equipment), and the terminal 11 may be a mobile phone, a tablet (Personal Computer), a laptop (Laptop Computer), or a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant). , PDA), Mobile Internet Device (MID), Wearable Device (Wearable Device), or in-vehicle device and other terminal-side devices.

The base station may communicate with the terminal 11 under the control of the base station controller. In various examples, the base station controller may be a part of a core network or some base stations. Some base stations can communicate control information or user data with the core network through the backhaul. In some examples, some of these base stations may directly or indirectly communicate with each other through a backhaul link, which may be a wired or wireless communication link. The wireless communication system can support operations on multiple carriers (waveform signals of different frequencies). Multi-carrier transmitters can simultaneously transmit modulated signals on these multiple carriers. For example, each communication link may be a multi-carrier signal modulated according to various radio technologies. Each modulated signal can be sent on a different carrier and can carry control information (for example, reference signals, control channels, etc.), overhead information, data, and so on.

Downlink transmission can use licensed frequency bands, unlicensed frequency bands, or both. Similarly, uplink transmission can be performed using licensed frequency bands, unlicensed frequency bands, or both.

As mentioned in the background art, there are a large number of multi-card terminals in the existing network. Take the dual-card single-receiving/transmitting terminal as an example. If the terminal is currently working on the SIM-A card, it needs to monitor the SIM-A card periodically. The paging message of the B card is used to determine whether a higher priority service arrives on the SIM-B. In order to notify the terminal of the SIM-B card service status, a possible technical solution is to indicate the type or priority of the service in the paging message sent to the SIM-B card, such as Voice over Long-term evolution. Term Evolution (VoLTE) or Voice over NR (VoNR) services on the new air interface, then the terminal needs to monitor the PDCCH first to see if there is a paging radio network Temporary Identifier (Paging Radio Network Temporary Identifier, P-RNTI) scrambled paging The message is then parsed into a paging (paging) message to determine whether the type or priority of the arriving service is indicated. If the service priority carried in the paging message is low, the terminal may not need to switch to the SIM-B card to receive the service.

The embodiment of the present application provides a service indication method, which can directly indicate the type or priority of the arrival service in the wake-up signal, so that the terminal only needs to decode the wake-up signal to determine whether it needs to switch to SIM-B to receive the service. The PDCCH is further monitored and the paging message is decoded, so that the power consumption of the terminal can be further saved.

In order to solve at least one of the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a service indication method, which can save terminal power consumption. Referring to FIG. 2, a service indication method provided by an embodiment of the present application, when applied to a first terminal supporting at least a first SIM card and a second SIM card, includes:

Step 21: The first terminal performing the first service on the first SIM card receives a wake-up signal sent by the first network where the first SIM card resides, and the wake-up signal carries the signal on the second SIM card. The service indication information of the arrived second service, where the second SIM card is in an idle state or in an inactive state.

Here, the first terminal is a multi-card terminal, which can support at least two SIM cards, such as a first SIM card and a second SIM card. Here, the first SIM card and the second SIM card may correspond to networks of the same operator (including networks of different communication standards and networks of the same communication standard).

Assuming that the first terminal performs the first service on the first SIM card, that is, the first SIM card is in a connected state on the corresponding first network (the first terminal is registered to the corresponding first network based on the first SIM card, The current state of the first terminal in the network is the connected state), and the second SIM card is in the idle state or inactive state in the corresponding second network (the first terminal is based on the second SIM card Register to the corresponding second network, the state of the first terminal in the network is an idle state or an inactive state, and the first network language and the second network may be the same or different). At this time, the first terminal obtains the service information arriving on the second SIM card by receiving the wake-up signal sent by the network corresponding to the first SIM card. When the first SIM card and the second SIM card correspond to the same or different networks of the same operator, the network side can determine that the first SIM card and the second SIM card are two SIM cards of the same terminal according to the registration information of the terminal In this way, the network device can associate the services of the first SIM card in the connected state with the services of the second SIM card in the idle/inactive state, and when the services of the second SIM card arrives, it sends the service to the first SIM card. To indicate the business instruction information of the second business. Specifically, the service indication information may be service type and/or priority information of the second service.

Through the above steps, when the first terminal in the embodiment of the present application performs services on the first SIM card, it does not need to switch to other SIM cards to learn the information of the services reached by other SIM cards, thus realizing services between SIM cards. instruct. Subsequently, the first terminal can determine whether it needs to switch to another SIM card to respond according to the received service information, thereby providing support for further reducing the power consumption of the multi-card terminal in the future.

For example, after the above step 21, the above method of the embodiment of the present application may further include the following step: the first terminal determines whether to switch to a second SIM card to perform the second service.

Here, the first terminal may determine whether it needs to switch to the second SIM card to perform the second service according to the service indication information.

For example, the first terminal may determine the priority of the second service according to the service indication information, and compare the priorities of the first service and the second service.

Then, when the priority of the first service is not lower or higher than the priority of the second service, continue to perform the first service through the first SIM card; and/or, when the priority of the first service is lower than or When the priority of the second service is not higher than that of the second service, switch to the second SIM card to perform the second service. In other words:

When the priority of the first service is not lower than the priority of the second service, continue to perform the first service through the first SIM card, and do not switch to the second SIM card at this time; while the priority of the first service is low When the priority of the second service is selected, switch to the second SIM card to perform the second service;

Or, when the priority of the first service is higher than the priority of the second service, the first service is continued to be performed through the first SIM card, and the second SIM card is not switched at this time; while the priority of the first service When the priority is not higher than the priority of the second service, switch to the second SIM card to perform the second service.

Through the above steps, the embodiment of the present application realizes that when the first SIM card is in the connected state and the second SIM card is in the idle/inactive state, the terminal can directly determine according to the wake-up signal received by the first SIM card Whether it is necessary to switch to the second SIM card for business, there is no need to monitor the PDCCH on the second SIM card and parse the paging message to determine whether to perform the business on the second SIM card, avoiding unnecessary conversion processing between SIM cards , It can also save the power consumption and calculation overhead caused by monitoring the PDCCH and parsing the paging message.

According to at least one embodiment of the present application, in the process of comparing the priorities of the first service and the second service in step 22, the first terminal may select the second service as a preset low-priority service. In this case, obtain a comparison result that the priority of the first service is not lower than or higher than the priority of the second service;

In addition, the service indication information may be carried by the preset downlink control information DCI scrambled by the Power Saving Radio Network Temporary Identifier (PS-RNTI). As an implementation manner, the service indication information may be carried in a preset domain in the preset DCI, wherein the value of the preset domain corresponds to the priority of the second service, or is The service type of the second service corresponds. For example, different values of the preset domain are used to indicate different priorities, or used to indicate different service types, and each service type has its own priority.

Please refer to Figure 3, which provides the flow of the above service instruction method when applied to network equipment, including:

Step 31: The network device detects the arrival of the second service of the first terminal on the second SIM card, where the first SIM card of the first terminal is in a connected state, and the second SIM card is in an idle state or an inactive state.

Here, the first SIM card and the second SIM card may reside in the same communication standard or different communication standard networks operated by the same operator. In step 31, the network device may be a device in the network corresponding to the first SIM card, such as a first base station. When the first SIM card resides in the first network of a certain operator, and the second SIM card resides in the second network of the same operator (assuming that the first network and the second network are different), the first base station The information of the second service sent by the second network to the second SIM card can be obtained through the inter-network interface. However, when the first SIM card and the second SIM card both reside in the same network of the same operator, at this time, the first base station can directly obtain the service information arriving on the second SIM card from the network. Of course, different networks can also use public base stations to provide services to the terminal. At this time, the public base stations can be connected to the core networks of different networks, so that the service information of each SIM card sent by each network to the terminal can be easily obtained. .

Step 32: The network device sends a wake-up signal to the first terminal in the first network where the first SIM card resides, where the wake-up signal carries service indication information of the second service.

Here, the service indication information is service type or priority information of the second service. Similarly, the service indication information may be carried by PS-RNTI scrambled preset DCI. For example, the service indication information may be carried in a preset domain in the preset DCI, where The value corresponds to the priority of the second service, or corresponds to the service type of the second service.

Through the above steps, the embodiment of the present application realizes that when the first SIM card of the first terminal is in the connected state, the indication information of the services arriving on the other SIM cards of the first terminal is sent to the first SIM card, so that the When the first terminal performs a service on the first SIM card, it can learn service information reached by other SIM cards without switching to other SIM cards, and realize service instructions between SIM cards. The subsequent terminal can determine whether it needs to switch to another SIM card to respond according to the arrived business information, so that it does not need to switch to another SIM card to detect and PDCCH and parse the paging message, thereby avoiding unnecessary switching between SIM cards Processing, saving terminal power consumption.

To help better understand the above method embodiments, a more specific example of the above method embodiments is provided below.

Example 1:

In this example 1, it is assumed that a certain UE includes two SIM cards, namely SIM-A and SIM-B, and the two SIM cards belong to the same operator.

S101. The network side (such as the base station) carries the service type or priority information to the SIM-B in the WUS message sent to the SIM-A of the UE in the connected state. Specifically, this information can be carried in the DCI format 2_6 of WUS:

The DCI format 2_6 scrambled by PS-RNTI includes the following fields:

-Block number, such as block number 1, block number 2,..., block number N, each block (block) corresponds to one or a group of UEs;

The fields of each block include:

-Wake-up indication, 1 bit;

-Indication information related to carrier aggregation (SCell dormancy indication)

-Service type or priority indication information, for example, 1 bit is used to indicate whether a high priority service such as VoLTE or VoNR has arrived. If the bit is set to 1, it means that a high priority service such as VoLTE or VoNR has arrived; this bit Position 0 or the bit is empty, it means that no high-priority services such as VoLTE or VoNR have arrived or the priority of the arrived service is normal or not high; for example, multiple bits are used to identify the type of service that arrives, such as two bits Bit, the value 00 indicates voice service, and the value 01 indicates Internet service, etc.

S102. After receiving the WUS message, the terminal judges whether it needs to switch to SIM-B to receive the service according to the SIM-B service type or priority indication information carried therein:

1) When the WUS message indicates that a high priority service such as VoLTE or VoNR arrives on SIM-B:

If the current UE is performing normal priority data services on SIM-A, the UE can switch to SIM-B to receive high priority services such as VoLTE or VoNR;

If the UE currently performs high-priority services such as VoLTE or VoNR on SIM-A, the UE can continue to work on SIM-A.

2) If the WUS message indicates that no high-priority services such as VoLTE or VoNR have arrived on SIM-B, or the priority of the arrived business is average or low, the UE can continue to work on SIM-A.

When the program is executed by the processor, it can realize all the implementation modes in the service indication method applied to the network device, and can achieve the same technical effect. In order to avoid repetition, it will not be repeated here.

Consider that in some cases, there are certain difficulties in the interaction of service status information between different SIM cards of the terminal. For example, when two SIM cards belong to different operators, it may be necessary to establish an information exchange interface between network devices of different operators in advance.

In order to reduce the impact of different above-mentioned situations on the implementation of the solution of this application, some other embodiments of this application also provide another service indication method, which can also be applied to the first terminal supporting at least the first SIM card and the second SIM card. Here, the first SIM card and the second SIM card may reside in a network of the same communication standard or different communication standards of the same operator, or may reside in a network of different operators. As shown in Figure 8, the method includes:

Step 81: The first terminal performing the first service on the first SIM card detects a wake-up signal sent by the second network where the second SIM card resides, and the wake-up signal carries a service indication of the second service Information, the second SIM card is in an idle state or an inactive state.

Through the above steps, when the first terminal is performing services in the first network corresponding to the first SIM card, it can detect the wake-up signal sent by the second network corresponding to the second SIM card, thereby realizing communication between different SIM cards. The indication of the arrival of the service provides support for the subsequent terminal to decide whether to switch to the second SIM card for further testing.

In order to reduce the number of wake-up signals, in the above-mentioned step 81 in the embodiment of the present application, the first terminal may detect the wake-up signal according to the wake-up signal detection timing of the first terminal group to which the first terminal belongs. The wake-up signal detection timing is a pre-appointed timing, which may specifically include at least one of the following:

1) The wake-up time in the DRX cycle corresponding to the second SIM card, that is, the DRX ON period in the DRX cycle;

2) The first preset time before DRX ON of the DRX cycle, where the first preset time may be a period of time with a preset length;

3) The second preset time before the paging opportunity (PO), where the second preset time may be a preset length of time, and the duration of the second preset time and the first preset time may be the same or different.

In the above step 81, the first terminal detects the wake-up signal in the second network where the second SIM card resides according to the above-mentioned wake-up signal detection timing, and the wake-up signal carries the indication information of the service that the first terminal packet arrives, for example After a certain terminal (which can be the first terminal or another terminal) in the first terminal group arrives at a certain service, the second network will send a wake-up signal at the above-mentioned wake-up signal detection timing, and the first terminal group is in The terminal in the dormant state will wake up at the aforementioned wake-up signal detection timing to detect the wake-up signal.

Here, the first terminal group to which the first terminal belongs is obtained by grouping according to a preset grouping manner. For example, the calculation can be performed according to the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) or Temporary Mobile Subscription Identity (TMSI) or S-TMSI of the second SIM card of the terminal, such as mod 1024 calculation, Terminals with the same remainder are in the same group. In the embodiment of the present application, the foregoing grouping may also be performed in the same manner as the grouping manner of receiving paging messages. Optionally, the grouping method can be pre-arranged or specified by the operator.

According to other embodiments of the present application, after the above step 81, the above method of the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps: the first determining whether to detect a paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card .

Here, the first terminal will determine whether to detect the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card according to the detection result of the wake-up signal. specific,

1) When the detection result of the wake-up signal indicates that the wake-up signal is not detected

At this time, the first terminal may determine whether to detect the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card according to the priority of the first service. For example, when the first service is a preset high-priority service, the terminal may not detect the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card; and/or, when the first service is a preset When a low-priority service is set, the terminal will detect the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card. Through the above method, the embodiment of the present application can prevent the terminal from detecting paging messages on the second SIM card when the first service is a preset high-priority service, thereby saving the terminal from detecting paging on the PDCCH and PDSCH. The power consumption and computational overhead generated by the message.

2) In the case where the detection result of the wake-up signal indicates that the wake-up signal is detected

Here, the service indication information may specifically include service type and/or priority information of the second service. At this time, the first terminal may determine the priority of the second service according to the service indication information, and compare the priorities of the first service and the second service.

For example, when the priority of the first service is not lower than the priority of the second service, the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card is not detected; and/or when the priority of the first service is When the level is lower than the priority of the second service, detect the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card.

For another example, when the priority of the first service is higher than the priority of the second service, the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card is not detected; and/or, when the priority of the first service is When the level is not higher than the priority of the second service, detect the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card.

Through the above methods, the embodiment of the present application can prevent the terminal from detecting paging messages on the second SIM card when the priority of the second service does not meet the preset conditions, thereby saving the terminal from detecting paging messages on the PDCCH and PDSCH. The power consumption and computational overhead generated by the call message ensure the reliability of high-priority services.

Through the above steps, the embodiments of the present application can reduce the power consumption and calculation overhead caused by the terminal detecting unnecessary paging messages, and ensure the reliability of high-priority services.

According to at least one embodiment of the present application, in the above step 82, after it is determined that the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card is detected, the first terminal may also log on the second SIM card. On the paging opportunity (PO), detecting the paging message sent by the second network to the second SIM card specifically includes detecting the paging message on the PDCCH and checking the PDSCH to confirm whether it is a paging message sent to the terminal.

In the embodiment of the present application, the service indication information is service type or priority information of the second service. Several forms of wake-up signals that can be used in the embodiments of the present application are provided below:

1) The wake-up signal is a preset DCI scrambled by a preset RNTI.

Here, the preset RNTI may be a pre-appointed or pre-defined RNTI. For example, a DCI format (such as format 2_X, where x represents a numerical value) and a new RNTI, that is, the non-connected power-saving wireless network temporary identifier (iPS-RNTI) described herein may be predefined. In this way, the service indication information can be carried in the preset field in the preset DCI scrambled by the preset iPS-RNTI, wherein the value of the preset field corresponds to the priority of the second service , Or corresponding to the service type of the second service.

2) The wake-up signal is a preset physical layer sequence.

The embodiments of this application may define a set of algorithms for calculating physical layer sequences. One or a group of terminals have a set of corresponding physical layer sequences. For example, different terminal groups correspond to different physical layer sequences, and/or the same terminal In the grouping, different service types or service priorities correspond to different physical layer sequences. The transmission timing of the physical layer sequence can be consistent with the paging opportunity (PO). In this way, when the terminal detects the corresponding physical layer sequence, it can be determined that the wake-up signal is detected, which indicates that the packet to which the terminal belongs has reached a new service.

Please refer to FIG. 9, which provides the flow of the above service indication method when applied to a network device in a second network. The second network is the network where the second SIM card of the first terminal resides, as shown in FIG. 9. The method includes:

Step 91: It is detected that the second service of the first terminal on the second SIM card has arrived, where the second SIM card is in an idle state or an inactive state.

Here, the first terminal may be a multi-card terminal supporting at least a first SIM card and a second SIM card. The first terminal group to which the first terminal belongs may be obtained by grouping according to a preset grouping manner.

Step 92: Send a wake-up signal to the first terminal, where the wake-up signal carries service indication information of the second service.

Here, the service indication information is service type or priority information of the second service. The network device may send the wake-up signal according to the wake-up signal sending timing of the first terminal group to which the first terminal belongs, where the wake-up signal sending timing includes at least one of the following: The wake-up time in the continuous reception (DRX) cycle; the first preset time before DRX ON of the DRX cycle; the second preset time before the paging opportunity (PO).

Through the above steps, the network device of the embodiment of the present application sends a wake-up signal at the timing of sending the wake-up signal, so that a terminal that is performing services on another SIM card can determine whether it needs to detect paging on the second SIM card according to the wake-up signal. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the power consumption and calculation overhead caused by the terminal detecting unnecessary paging messages, and to ensure the reliability of high-priority services.

As mentioned above, the wake-up signal may be a preset DCI scrambled by a preset RNTI, or a preset physical layer sequence. In the case that the wake-up signal is a preset DCI scrambled by a preset RNTI, the service indication information is carried in a preset field in the preset DCI scrambled by a PS-RNTI, wherein the preset The value of the field corresponds to the priority of the second service, or corresponds to the service type of the second service; when the wake-up signal is a preset physical layer sequence, different terminal groups correspond to different The physical layer sequence, and/or, in the same terminal grouping, different service types or service priorities correspond to different physical layer sequences.

After the above step 92, the network device may also send a paging message for the first terminal on the paging opportunity of the first terminal in the second network.

In order to help a better understanding of the above method embodiments, a more specific example is used to further illustrate the above embodiments.

Example 2:

In this example 2, it is assumed that a certain UE includes two SIM cards, namely SIM-A and SIM-B, and the two SIM cards belong to different operators.

S201. Group the terminals according to a certain scheme, such as performing a mod 1024 operation on the IMSI or TMSI or S-TMSI of the UE, and group the terminals with the same remainder into the same group. Or, terminal grouping is performed in a manner consistent with the grouping manner of receiving paging messages. The grouping method is agreed in advance or specified by the operator.

S202. Define a new set of iWUS mechanisms applicable to idle and/or inactive states, such as

1) Define a set of DCI format (such as format 2_x) and iWUS RNTI (such as iPS-RNTI) by means of DCI format. Among them, DCI format 2_x uses iPS-RNTI for cyclic redundancy check (Cyclic Redundancy Check, CRC) scrambling, which includes:

-Service type or priority indication information, such as 1 bit indicating whether a high priority service such as VoLTE or VoNR has arrived. The bit position 1 indicates that a high priority service such as VoLTE or VoNR has arrived. The bit position is 0 or this bit. If the bit is empty, it means that no high-priority services such as VoLTE or VoNR have arrived or the priority of the service is generally or not high; or multiple bits are used to identify the type of service that arrives, for example, two bits are used, where 00 means Voice service, 01 means Internet service, etc.

2) By means of physical layer sequence codes (sequences), a set of sequence calculation mechanism is defined in advance. One or a group of UEs have a set of corresponding sequences, and the sending timing of the sequence can be consistent with the paging opportunity (PO).

When the UE detects the corresponding sequence, it can be considered that a high-priority service sent to the UE in this group has arrived; further, different sequences can be defined for different services, such as sequence X for voice services and sequence Y for Internet services Wait.

S303. SIM-B working in idle or inactive UE, wakes up in each DRX cycle, or a period of time before DRX ON arrives (such as N ms, N TTIs, etc.), which can be pre-defined or configured by the network side through broadcast messages ), or a period of time before PO, use iPS-RNTI to detect common PDCCH, or to detect sequence, to determine whether the network side has sent iWUS for this group of UEs.

1) If the UE does not detect the iWUS indication information, it means that none of the UEs in this group have arrived high-priority services. The UE can determine whether it needs to further check the paging message according to the service priority of another SIM-A.

For example, if SIM-A is currently working in a high-priority voice service, the UE may not further detect the paging message on SIM-B PDSCH, because even if there are services on SIM-B, the priority is relatively low or not higher than SIM-B -A service, UE should not switch to SIM-B to carry out this service. In this way, the overhead of the UE to detect paging messages on the PDSCH can be saved, as well as the power consumption and calculation overhead of the UE.

2) If the UE decodes the iWUS indication information, indicating that a high-priority service has arrived in the group of UEs, the UE further detects the paging message to see if there is a high-priority service of the UE. If so, the UE can switch to SIM-B to perform the service; if no high-priority service of the UE arrives, the UE can continue to work on SIM-A in the current connected state, which saves the UE from going to PDSCH Detect the overhead of the paging message, and save the power consumption and calculation overhead of the UE.
