Abstract

The invention discloses a set-top box, comprising a main chip and a PCIE module connected with the main chip. The PCIE module comprises a SIM card and a virtual card. The SIM card is used for sendingthe communication switching request to the background when the set-top box is initialized, and receiving the virtual card data fed back by the background according to the communication switching request. The communication handover request includes an optimal network to which the set-top box is located and to which the set-top box can be connected. The main chip is used for storing the virtual carddata into the virtual card and switching the SIM card communication mode to the virtual card communication mode. The virtual card is used for connecting the optimal network for communication. Correspondingly, the invention also discloses a communication method of a set-top box. As that embodiment of the invention is adopt, the optimal communication effect can be achieved, and the hardware space occupy by the SIM card to the set-top box can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a set-top box and a communication method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to different living environments, the 4G signal strength of different operators may vary. In order to adapt to different scenarios, it is necessary to support SIM cards of different operators. However, if the SIM cards of various operators are integrated into the set-top box, the cost is very high, and it will also cause waste of SIM cards. At the same time, it will also occupy a lot of hardware space of the terminal equipment, reducing the space utilization rate of the terminal equipment. Contents of the invention [0003] Embodiments of the present invention provide a set-top box and a communication method thereof, which can achieve an optimal communication effect and reduce hardware space occupation of the set-top box by a SIM card. [0004] The embodiment of the present invention prov...
