Before describing the system for allocating cloud cards provided by the embodiments of the present application, in order to facilitate the understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following describes the principles of the system for allocating cloud cards provided by the embodiments of the present application and the methods in the embodiments of the present application with reference to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 . The related concepts involved are explained.

The cloud card is a user identity identification (Subscriber Identity Module, SIM) card, the server and the card-carrying device can communicate through serial ports or network ports, and the server reads the cloud card information through the card-carrying device, and sends the cloud card information to the terminal device. The terminal device registers with the operator's network according to the cloud card information, thereby realizing wireless communication of the terminal device. The cloud card information includes, but is not limited to, ICCID (Integrate circuit card identity, integrated circuit card identification code), IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity, International Mobile Subscriber Identity) and some information of the operator, etc.

The card loading device can be a read-write device that centrally sets the SIM card, such as a SIM card library (SIMBANK) or a SIM card pool (SIM POOL). The SIM card loaded by the card loading device includes but is not limited to a SIM card (Subscriber Identification Module, user identity). identification card), UIM card (User Identity Model, user identification module), USIM card (Universal Subscriber Identity Module, Global User Identity Card), and User Identity Cards with the same or equivalent functionality.

The card-carrying device may also be a virtual device, and the virtual device is used to store a soft card, and the soft card includes but is not limited to an embedded SIM card (Embedded SIM, eSIM), a soft SIM card (soft SIM), a virtual SIM card (virtual SIM, vSIM) etc.

The server allocates a cloud card to the terminal device according to the request of the terminal device, or pushes the cloud card to the terminal device according to the network location and situation reported by the terminal device. In some embodiments, the card carrier device may be a separate device or part of a server.

At present, cloud cards are usually randomly assigned to terminal devices by the server, such as portable personal hotspots (MIFI, Mobile WIFI), regardless of the operator of the cloud cards.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of coverage distribution of operators of different scales. As shown in FIG. 1 , the coverage of small-scale operator A in the dotted line is relatively small and scattered. The large-scale coverage of operator B within the solid line is usually relatively large, covering not only the entire coverage area of operator A, but also the area that operator A cannot cover.

The applicant found that if the cloud card of operator A is allocated to the user, the coverage of operator A is poor, and the cloud card of operator B needs to be used to supplement the network in the non-coverage area. Due to the cost of scale, operator A cannot provide good coverage and the coverage is discontinuous, resulting in loss of users.

In addition, the applicant also found that the operator itself needs to make a profit, and in its own coverage area, it is expected that the user will use its own cloud card as the user's online cloud card. When the terminal device is assigned the cloud card of operator A, but cannot connect to the network, it will be replaced with the card of operator B. Since operator B has a wider coverage, even if the terminal device returns to the coverage area of operator A It is also impossible to exchange the card of operator A, and continue to use the card of operator B to provide services. On the one hand, the card usage cost of the terminal equipment is increased, and on the other hand, the small-scale operator A loses users.

Therefore, the applicant has found that how to allocate a cloud card to a terminal device can enable users to obtain the advantages of preset indicators and avoid insufficient coverage during use. The preset indicator may be a key indicator of priority concern to the user, and may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: comprehensive rate, data transmission rate, and customer service score.

As shown in FIG. 4 , in the system for allocating a cloud card provided by some embodiments of the present application, the terminal device is configured to send a first request for allocating a cloud card to the server in response to a first trigger event, and the first The request for allocating a cloud card includes the current location information of the terminal device.

The server is configured to receive the first distribution cloud card request, and distribute the cloud card to the terminal device according to the current location information carried in the first distribution cloud card request.

If the current location information satisfies the preset coverage condition, the server is configured to allocate the preset first cloud card of the first operator to the terminal device; if the current location information does not meet the preset coverage condition, Then the server is configured to allocate the second cloud card of the second operator to the terminal device.

Exemplarily, the server is configured to send the cloud card information to the terminal device by sending a cloud card allocation response message to the terminal. The cloud card allocation response message carries cloud card information, and the terminal device obtains the cloud card by acquiring the cloud card information, and uses the cloud card according to the cloud card information.

The terminal device receives the cloud card allocated by the server, and if the cloud card is the first cloud card, attempts to use the cloud card to register with the first network of the first operator. If the registration is successful, the communication is performed through the first network.

If the cloud card is the second cloud card, the terminal device connects to the second network of the second operator through the second cloud card, and communicates through the second network. At the same time, the terminal device searches the first network of the first operator at a preset period, and if the terminal device searches for the first network, the terminal device sends a second distribution cloud card to the server request; the server allocates a first cloud card to the terminal device according to the second request for allocating a cloud card.

Exemplarily, the preset period may be a time period preset in the terminal device, or may be a search time period of a network protocol specification corresponding to the first network.

Allocate cloud card requests. The access condition may be a signal quality condition. The signal quality includes, but is not limited to, parameters such as signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio.

In some embodiments, the preset first operator information may be stored in the server, and may also be stored in the terminal device.

Satellite System, BDS), GLONASS system (Global'naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema, GLONASS), Global Positioning System (GPS), Galileo satellite navigation system).

It should be understood that in this embodiment of the present application, the server preferentially allocates the preset first cloud card of the first operator to the terminal device according to the current location information sent by the terminal device, and allocates the first cloud card of the first operator if the coverage conditions of the first operator are not met. The second cloud card of the second operator makes up for the insufficient coverage of the first operator, and after the terminal device searches for the network of the first operator, the first cloud card is re-allocated to the terminal device. It has the effect of making full use of the network of the first operator and making up for the insufficient coverage of the first operator.

On the basis of the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 , FIG. 5 shows a flowchart of information interaction of the system for allocating cloud cards provided by an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in FIG. 5 , in the system for allocating cloud cards provided by some embodiments of the present application, the terminal device 110 includes a first network unit 111 and a second network unit 112 , and the first network unit 111 is used to load the cloud card, the second network unit 112 is used to load the seed card.

The terminal device is configured to register the third network of any operator with the seed card through the second network unit when the terminal device meets the first determination condition. The first determination condition includes, but is not limited to, the terminal device is powered on to enable the cloud card, the terminal device wakes up from a standby state to enable the cloud card, or the terminal device receives an instruction from the user to enable the cloud card.

After the terminal device successfully registers with the third network, the terminal device is configured to send a first cloud card allocation request to the server through the third network through the second network unit.

It should be understood that the third network here can be the first network or the second network, and can also be any other network that can realize the communication between the terminal device and the server. It is named the third network to distinguish it from seed card registration. network of.

On the basis of the working process of the system for allocating cloud cards shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 , in the system for allocating cloud cards provided by some embodiments of the present application, the server is further configured to determine where the current location of the terminal device is located. area at.

Exemplarily, if the location corresponding to the current location information is in the first area or the third area, the terminal device is allocated the first cloud card of the first operator; if the location corresponding to the current location information is in the first area In the second area, the second cloud card of the second operator is allocated to the terminal device. The first area is a known coverage area of the first operator, the second area is a known non-coverage area of the first operator, and the third area is the first area and the area outside the second area.

It should be understood that the third area may be an area covered by the first operator, an area covered by the second operator but not covered by the first operator, or an area covered by both the first operator and the second operator , but the zone is currently not registered with the server.

In some embodiments, the specific manner used by the server to determine the area where the current location of the terminal device is located may further be: if the location in the current location information is in the first location table, then the current location The position corresponding to the position information is in the first area; if the position in the current position information is in the second position table, the position corresponding to the current position information is in the second area; if the current position information If not in the first location table and the second location table, the location corresponding to the current location information is in the third area. Exemplarily, the above location table may be a database table, or may be any other queryable data table, or a queryable data storage form equivalent to a data table.

In some embodiments, the server determines whether the current location information is in the first location table and the second location table by judging whether the current location information is received for the first time by the server, and if it is received for the first time to the current location information, the location information must not be in the first location table and the second location table, if it is not the first time to receive the current location information, then by querying the first location table and the second location table to determine the area where the location corresponding to the current location information is located. It should be noted that the server can receive the location information sent from the terminal device, and can receive the location information sent by the operator that can be covered by the operator. If the location information sent by the terminal device received by the service corresponds to the location , neither the historically sent location of each terminal device nor the location in the location table provided by the operator, it is considered that the server has received the current location information for the first time. Specifically, a historical location table can be established according to the location table provided by the operator and the historically sent locations of each terminal device, the server saves the historical location table, and determines whether the current location information is received for the first time by querying the historical location table .

It should be understood that when the location corresponding to the current location information is in the first area or the third area, the first cloud card of the first operator is allocated to the terminal device. The terminal device may be preferentially connected to the preset first network of the first operator. When it is determined that the location corresponding to the current location information is not covered by the first operator, allocating a second cloud card to the terminal device can supplement the insufficient coverage of the first operator.

Based on the above embodiments shown in FIGS. 4 to 7 , in some embodiments, the terminal device 110 is a terminal device having a first network unit 111 and a second network unit 112 . The terminal device receives the cloud card allocated by the server, and if the cloud card is the second cloud card, the terminal device searches the first network of the first operator at a preset period, and if the When the terminal device searches for the first network, the terminal device sends a second request for allocating cloud cards to the server. A specific implementation manner may be:

The terminal device receives the cloud card allocated by the server through the second network unit; if the cloud card is the second cloud card, the terminal device searches through the second network unit at a preset cycle The first network of the first operator; if the terminal device searches for the first network, the terminal device sends a second cloud card allocation request to the server through the first network unit.

To help better understand the combination of various embodiments of the present application, FIG. 8 shows a schematic workflow diagram of a system for allocating cloud cards provided by an embodiment of the present application. FIG. 9 shows a schematic diagram of system communication for allocating cloud cards provided by an embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, the preset first operator is a small-scale operator with scattered coverage; the second operator is a large-scale operator with a large coverage.

Referring to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 , in the system for allocating cloud cards provided by some embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can be powered on as the first determination condition, and the second network unit of the terminal device uses the seed card to register the network of any operator. The terminal device reports the PLMN and LAC of the currently registered network to the server, and the server divides the card according to the PLMN and LAC reported by the terminal device. It should be pointed out that, since different operators use the same LAC, the server needs the PLMN and the LAC to determine the specific location.

When the current LAC is the coverage area of the first operator that has a record, the first cloud card of the first operator is prioritized. When the current LAC is not the coverage area of the first operator that has a record, the server assigns the second operator to the terminal device. business second cloud card. When the server does not know whether the LAC is the coverage area of the first operator, the server preferentially allocates a cloud card of the first operator to the terminal device, which can be considered as the first time the server uses the LAC. According to the registration status of the terminal device in the network of the first operator, it is determined whether the LAC is covered by the first operator, and the server records the coverage of which operator the LAC belongs to.

In some embodiments, the current cloud card is the first cloud card of the first operator, and when the terminal device successfully registers with the first network of the first operator by using the first cloud card, the first network unit of the terminal device notifies the The second network unit stops periodically searching the first network, and the terminal device keeps using the first cloud card.

When the second network unit searches for the overlay network of the first operator, the second network unit of the terminal device notifies the first network unit to change the card, and the terminal device passes the A network element requests the server to allocate a first cloud card of a first operator.

In some embodiments, when the coverage of the first operator's cloud card is interrupted, that is, the terminal device detects that the connection with the first network is interrupted, the first network element of the terminal device triggers the second network element to request the server to allocate the second cloud Card. When the terminal device receives the second cloud card and successfully registers with the second network, the first network unit notifies the second network unit to periodically search the first network. When the second network unit searches for the coverage of the first network again, the second network unit notifies the first network unit to request the server to allocate the first cloud card to the terminal device.

In some embodiments, whether the second network unit performs network search is implemented by setting the network search duration of the second network unit by the first network unit. Exemplarily, the first network unit sets the network search duration of the second network unit to 0 minutes, then the second network unit stops searching the first network; the first network unit sets the network search duration of the second network unit to N minutes, and N If it is greater than 0, the second network unit searches the first network in a period of K minutes.

In some embodiments, the PLMN and signal quality of the surrounding LTE/UMTS/GSM can be obtained by searching the network. When the network list obtained by searching the network includes the network of the first operator, the terminal device can use the second network unit to report to the server. Initiate a request to allocate the first cloud card.

In the embodiment of the present application, for a designated first operator, that is, a preset first operator, the cloud card of the first operator is preferentially used for network services. When the cloud card of the first operator is not covered by the cloud card of the first operator, it is automatically switched to the cloud card of another operator for supplementary coverage, and at the same time, the first network unit notifies the second network unit to periodically search the first network. When the second network unit finds a network of the first operator and the signal meets the access conditions, the first network unit automatically switches to the cloud card of the first operator for service.

That is to say, as long as the places covered by the first operator's signal use the first operator's network services, other places use other operators' cloud cards according to the network search results to access the corresponding network to obtain network services. In some embodiments, selecting a cloud card of another operator may select a cloud card of an operator with the best network signal searched for.
