Embodiment 1

[0053] As described in the background technology, the existing solution usually uses the AP to upgrade the NV data and back up the parameter data. In this process, the AP side needs to analyze the data structure of the NV data of the Modem. However, the NV data of the Modem is very important to the AP. It should be transparent, and the AP does not need to care about its format and structure, so the existing solution increases the coupling between the AP and the Modem.

[0054] In response to this shortcoming, in this embodiment, an NV partition (i.e. the third partition) is added in the non-volatile memory on the AP side. When downloading the NV data of the Modem, the AP only needs to write the NV data into the NV partition without For any analysis, the NV data upgrade and parameter data backup will be performed by the Modem when it is turned on, so as to reduce the coupling between the AP and the Modem.

[0055] Such as figure 1 As shown, the communication terminal provided ...

Embodiment 2

[0079] On the basis of the first embodiment, this embodiment describes the backup process of the NV data when the Modem firmware is upgraded.

[0080] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the method for processing the non-volatile data of the communication terminal provided in this embodiment includes:

[0081] Step S300, after the AP is powered on, if the first partition and the second partition are not empty, copy the NV data of the first partition, the second partition and the third partition to the first storage area and the second storage area of ​​the Modem respectively. area and a third storage area;

[0082] When the Modem performs system initialization, step S301 is performed to determine whether the timestamps of the NV data in the first storage area and the NV data in the third storage area are consistent, if yes, it indicates that the Modem firmware does not need to be upgraded, otherwise step S302 is performed.

[0083] Step S302 is executed to determine whether the data...

Embodiment 3

[0102] On the basis of the first embodiment, this embodiment describes the backup process of the calibrated radio frequency parameters.

[0103] In the prior art, although the AP side uses two mutually backup partitions to store the NV data, it can ensure that the data in the other partition can be restored after the data in one partition is damaged. However, these two partitions are writable during the normal operation of the communication terminal. Once an illegal power failure occurs during the writing process, the NV data will be destroyed. Hardware-related parameter data cannot be recovered, thereby affecting the radio frequency performance of the communication terminal.

[0104] Therefore, in this embodiment, another NV partition (that is, the fourth partition) is added to the non-volatile memory on the AP side to store parameter data related to hardware devices such as calibrated radio frequency parameters and IMEI. The NV partition Only after the communication termina...

Abstract

The invention relates to a communication terminal and a nonvolatile data processing method of the communication terminal. The communication terminal comprises a modem processing unit and an application processing unit, wherein the modem processing unit is not provided with a nonvolatile memory, a nonvolatile memory arranged on the application processing unit comprises a first region and a second region realizing mutual backup, nonvolatile data of the modem processing unit is stored in the first region and the second region, and the nonvolatile memory of the application processing unit also comprises a third region applicable to the storage of corresponding nonvolatile data obtained after the downloading of firmware of the modem processing unit. The technical scheme has the advantages that during the downloading of the firmware of the modem processing unit, the analysis on the structure of the nonvolatile data of the modem processing unit is not needed at the application processing unit side, and the coupling performance of the application processing unit and the structure of the nonvolatile data of the modem processing unit is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication, in particular to a communication terminal and a method for processing non-volatile data thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, with the rise of smart phones in the communication field, the "AP+Modem" scheme is prevalent, in which AP (Application Processor) can be called an application processing unit, which is responsible for the processing of all applications, and Modem (Modulation demodulation) can be called modulation and demodulation. The call processing unit is responsible for the execution of all communication software. The AP part and the Modem part are separated from each other, and the two communicate through AT commands. For example, when making a call, the AP controls the Modem through the AT command, and when there is an incoming call, the Modem notifies the AP through the AT command. [0003] In order to save costs, the "No NAND Modem" scheme appeared in the "AP+Modem" schem...
