Method for determining TCP heartbeat cycle of terminal equipment, terminal equipment and server

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method for determining a TCP heartbeat cycle of terminal equipment, the terminal equipment and a server, which are used for realizing that the terminal equipment quickly reaches a stable TCP heartbeat period state in different cells and reducing the power consumption of the terminal equipment. The method provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the following steps: the terminal equipment sends a heartbeat cycle request to a server, the heartbeat cycle request comprises information of a current cell where the terminal equipment is located, and the information of the current cell is used for the server to determine heartbeat cycle data of the current cell; the terminal equipment receives the heartbeat cycle data sent by the server; andthe terminal equipment maintains the connection state of the TCP link according to the heartbeat cycle data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, and in particular to a method for determining the heartbeat cycle of a TCP (Transmission Control Protocol, Transmission Control Protocol) terminal device, a terminal device, a server, and a computer-readable storage medium. Background technique [0002] In order to receive or send data in real time on the TCP link, the terminal device needs to use the heartbeat mechanism to maintain the constant connection state of the TCP link. At present, the terminal equipment maintains the TCP heartbeat mainly by detecting it step by step, and then maintains it at a certain reasonable heartbeat period. If the terminal device moves to a different cell, the time for the new cell to maintain an IP (Internet Protocol, Internet Protocol) link for the terminal device may change from the value of the previous cell. If the time is shortened, the heartbeat timeout may occur on the new cell, which requires re-detecti...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

If the time is shortened, the heartbeat timeout may occur on the new cell, which requires re-detection and waits for the heartbeat cycle to stabilize again, which will cause the terminal device to establish more network connections and consume TCP server resources. At the same time increase the power consumption of the terminal equipment

If the time to maintain the IP link for the terminal device on this new cell becomes longer, then if the original heartbeat cycle is used to send heartbeat data, unnecessary heartbeat data and power consumption will be increased
