Embodiment 1

[0034] like figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for controlling the low power consumption of a portable router. The method specifically includes:

[0035] 101. The AP in the portable router judges whether all the conditions in the preset sleep conditions are met at the same time;

[0036] 102. When the AP meets all the preset sleep conditions at the same time, the AP instructs the Modem module and the WIFI module connected to the AP to enter the sleep state, and the AP makes the USB connected to the Modem module on the AP side enter the idle mode. AP's UART hangs;

[0037] 103. The AP, the Modem module, and the WIFI module enter a sleep state.

[0038] This embodiment provides a method for controlling the low-power operation of a portable router. When the application controller AP of the portable router meets the sleep condition, the AP instructs the Modem module and the WIFI module connected to the AP to enter the sleep state, so that the AP side The USB c...

Embodiment 2

[0040] This embodiment provides a method for controlling the operation of a portable router, which is an improvement on the basis of Embodiment 1.

[0041] In this example, with figure 2 The portable router shown is used as an example for explanation. in, figure 2 Shown is the composition diagram of the portable router provided by the present invention, the portable router is composed of AP (Application processor, application controller), Modem (modem) module, SIM (Subscriber Identity Module, subscriber identity module), display screen, battery ( Battery), WIFI module, etc. In this embodiment, the display screen is specifically OLED (Organic Flectroluminesence Display, organic electroluminescence display) as an example. In practical applications, the display screen can also be LCD (Liquid Crystal Display, liquid crystal display), wherein, the dotted line indicates the connection that can be added, and the double line indicates that the two ends of the double-line connectio...

Embodiment 3

[0093]The method provided in this embodiment is a further optimization of Embodiment 2. After the sleep control of the AP and Modem modules is completed, so that the portable router enters the sleep state when it is not working, this embodiment provides a method for waking up the portable router , including waking up AP, Modem module and WIFI module.

[0094] A method for waking up a portable router is described in detail below.

[0095] First, if Figure 5 As shown, the first method for waking up a portable router specifically includes the following steps:

[0096] A301, the AP judges whether the preset timing wake-up time is reached, if yes, execute step A309, if not, execute step A302;

[0097] It should be noted that the AP has a preset wake-up time. When the preset wake-up time is reached, the AP wakes itself up and enters the working state from the sleep state. For example, the AP can be set to wake up itself every 5 minutes.

[0098] A302, the AP judges whether the b...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for controlling a portable router to work in low power consumption mode and a portable router, which belong to the field of communication. When an application processor (AP) of the portable router meets dormant conditions, a Modem module and a wireless fidelity (WIFI) module are instructed to enter a dormant state, a universal serial bus (USB) connected with the Modem module on the side of the AP enters a free mode, a universal asynchronous receiver / transmitter (UART) of the AP is hung up, the AP and the WIFI module enter a dormant state, the AP enters the dormant state, and control of low power consumption work of the portable router with double chips of the AP and the Modem module is finished. The effect of saving battery energy is achieved, and service life of the portable router with the double chips is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for controlling the low power consumption operation of a portable router and the portable router. Background technique [0002] A portable router is a wireless router that can expand a wireless network in an environment without a wireless network, and enables devices with a WIFI (wireless fidelity, wireless local area network) function to use wireless Internet access. The usage scenario of the portable 3G router is personal and personal. The biggest feature of the portable router is that it uses battery power to provide users with 3G (3rd-generation, third-generation mobile communication technology) uplink WIFI hotspots in outdoor scenarios without power supply. Service, can cooperate with portable WIFI handheld terminals such as ipad, psp, netbook, notebook computer for outdoor Internet service. [0003] Since the portable router uses a battery as a power supply source, there...
