Obviously, the described embodiments It is a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0034] figure 1 Shows a schematic flow chart of the method for downloading an application program update data package provided by this embodiment, including:

[0035] S101. Obtain downlink occupied bandwidth of the smart terminal, and obtain downlink idle bandwidth used for downloading application update data packets according to the downlink occupied bandwidth and the total downlink bandwidth.

[0036] Specifically, after the smart terminal receives the configuration file sent by the update server, it parses the configuration file to obtain configuration information corresponding to each application, and then the central processing unit in the smart terminal sends the corresponding configuration information to the application. The application program receives the configuration information sent by the central processing unit, and obtains the download address of the update data package corresponding to the application included in the configuration information, and obtains the smart terminal before downloading the update data package according to the download address The downlink occupied bandwidth within a preset time period, and by querying the total downlink bandwidth of the smart terminal and subtracting the downlink occupied bandwidth, the currently unused downlink bandwidth can be calculated and obtained according to a specific bandwidth allocation strategy Downlink idle bandwidth for downloading application update data packets;

[0037] Wherein, the smart terminal may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer or other terminal with computing and data processing capabilities; the update server is a server that provides the smart terminal with a configuration file for updating; the update data package is a pair of The data package for updating the application.

[0038] The downlink occupied bandwidth refers to the transmission rate when the server sends data to the smart terminal, and is the total transmission rate at which all applications in the smart terminal receive data sent by the server.

[0039] The total downlink bandwidth is the maximum transmission rate at which the smart terminal can receive data sent by the server.

[0040] The downlink idle bandwidth is a transmission rate used to receive application program update data packets.

[0041] The bandwidth allocation strategy is to predict the downlink bandwidth that needs to be reserved for each application based on the historical usage of bandwidth by each application of the smart terminal, and then subtract the downlink bandwidth that needs to be reserved from the currently unused downlink bandwidth, The downlink idle bandwidth used for downloading the application program update data packet is calculated.

[0042] S102. Download the application program update data package based on the downlink idle bandwidth.

[0043] Specifically, the central processing unit of the smart terminal allocates the downlink idle bandwidth to the application program, and the application program downloads the application program update data packet based on the downlink idle bandwidth.

[0044] In this embodiment, by acquiring the downlink occupied bandwidth of the smart terminal within a preset time period, the bandwidth usage of other applications that are using bandwidth resources in the smart terminal can be learned; and the application update data package can be downloaded according to the downlink idle bandwidth. Under the premise that the current bandwidth usage of other applications is not affected, the download of application update data packages is realized.

[0045] Further, on the basis of the foregoing method embodiment, S102 further includes: if the downlink idle bandwidth is less than a preset bandwidth, serially downloading a plurality of the application update data packets.

[0046] Wherein, the preset bandwidth may be preset according to the size of the application update data packet, or may be preset according to other factors, and represents the bandwidth size used to determine how many application update data packets can be downloaded at the same time.

[0047] The serial download is that all update data packets are downloaded sequentially, that is, only one update data packet is downloaded at the same time.

[0048] For example, the smart terminal includes 3 application update data packets, the sizes of which are 8M, 10M, and 11M respectively. The current downlink free bandwidth is 500KB, and the preset bandwidth is 1M. Then update the data packet string for 3 applications Online downloading, that is, downloading three application update data packages in sequence, and the downlink bandwidth of each application update data package during downloading is 500KB.

[0049] Serial download of application program update data packets is performed based on the preset bandwidth judgment. When the downlink idle bandwidth is small, serial download can be adopted so that some application update data packets can be downloaded and used first.

[0050] Further, on the basis of the foregoing method embodiment, the serial downloading of the multiple application program update data packets in S102 includes:

[0051] S1021. Sort the multiple application update data packages according to the order of the amount of data from small to large, and set corresponding download priorities for the multiple application update data packages according to the sorted order;

[0052] Wherein, the download priority is the download priority order of all update data packets during serial download.

[0053] For example, this embodiment includes 4 application update data packages, namely data package A, data package B, data package C, and data package D. Among them, data package A is 3M, data package B is 5M, and data package C is 4M, data package D is 6M, then the 4 application update data packages can be sorted from small to large into data package A, data package C, data package B, and data package D. Further, according to the data package The smaller the amount of data, the higher the download priority is. The download priority corresponding to the 4 application update data packages is data package A, data package C, data package B, and data package D from high to low.

[0054] S1022: Perform serial download according to respective download priorities of the multiple application update data packets.

[0055] By setting the download priority from small to large for serial downloading, more update packets can be completed within a specified time.

[0056] Further, on the basis of the foregoing method embodiment, S102 further includes:

[0057] If the downlink idle bandwidth is greater than or equal to the condition of the preset bandwidth, parallel downloading of a plurality of the application program update data packets.

[0058] Wherein, the parallel downloading means that multiple update data packages are downloaded at the same time, that is, multiple update data packages are downloaded at the same time.

[0059] For example, the smart terminal includes 3 application update data packets, the sizes of which are 8M, 10M, and 11M respectively. The current downlink idle bandwidth is 1.5M, and the preset bandwidth is 1M. Then update the data packets for 3 applications Parallel download, that is, download 3 application update data packages at the same time, and the downlink bandwidth of each application update data package is 500KB when downloading.

[0060] Parallel download of application update data packets is performed by the preset bandwidth judgment. When the free downlink bandwidth is large, parallel download can be used to download multiple applications at the same time while ensuring the download time of each application update data package in advance Update the data package.

[0061] Further, on the basis of the foregoing method embodiment, the acquiring the downlink idle bandwidth used for downloading the application update data packet according to the downlink occupied bandwidth and the total downlink bandwidth further includes:

[0062] Calculate the bandwidth difference between the total downlink bandwidth and the downlink occupied bandwidth, and obtain the downlink idle bandwidth according to the bandwidth difference and the reserved downlink bandwidth.

[0063] By calculating the bandwidth difference, the downlink idle bandwidth can be quickly determined.
