[0002] With the development of communication technology and the popularity of smart terminals, more and more mobile phones support dual-card dual standby function, and even multi-card multi-standby function.

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments only represent some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] Most of the existing "dual card dual standby" mobile phones still use a set of radio frequency (RF) system, the two SIM cards corresponding to the network share the radio frequency resources, such as single transmit single receive (1Tx1Rx) terminal, single transmit multiple receive terminal, multiple transmit single receive terminal, etc. Therefore, the radio frequency module of the mobile phone needs to be constantly converted between the two user networks to share the radio frequency system. This conversion will increase the user access delay, and even in some cases, the user cannot receive important system signaling (such as Paging, etc.) in time and effectively, resulting in serious communication failure and user experience reduction and waste of communication resources.

[0031] To solve the above problems, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for information indication, which is applied to a terminal. The following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] First, please refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, it includes at least one base station and one terminal. The terminal contains at least two user identification cards, and each user identification card corresponds to a working network, such as the first identification card corresponding to the first network, and the second identification card corresponding to the second network. When the terminal is working, if the first network currently executes the service contained in the first identification card, after the working network conversion, the second network executes the service contained in the second identification card. Therefore, the first network and the second network can correspond to the same base station, or can correspond to different base stations, Figure 1 In order to reflect the conversion of the working network, two base stations are symbolically displayed, but not as a limitation of the following embodiments.

[0033] The above base station can be used for communication with one or more terminals, or can be used for communication with one or more base stations with partial terminal functions (such as communication between macro base stations and micro base stations, such as access points). The base station can be a base transceiver station (BTS) in a time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) system, or an evolved node B (eNB) in a long term evolution (LTE) system, or a base station gNB in a 5G system, NR system, etc. Here, they are not listed one by one.

[0034] The above terminal includes but is not limited to devices with communication functions, smart phones, tablet computers, notebook computers, desktop computers, portable digital players, smart bracelets, and smart watches, etc.

[0035] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application can be based onFigure 1 The communication system of the example architecture or a variant thereof is implemented.

[0036] Referring to Figure 2A , Figure 2A is a flowchart of a method for information indication provided by an embodiment of the application. The method can include, but is not limited to, the following steps:

[0037] 201. If a working network conversion is detected, conversion indication information is generated according to the working network conversion, the conversion indication information being used to indicate that the terminal has a working network conversion event;

[0038] Specifically, it can be understood that the detection of the working network conversion can be a conversion instruction from the outside, such as a conversion instruction applied to the terminal by the user, or can be from the inside of the terminal, i.e., an indication between modules in the system when the terminal itself needs to perform working network conversion. Taking the first network corresponding to the first identification card as the working network as an example, the terminal can immediately convert the working network from the first network to the second network after receiving the instruction. Alternatively, it can also be that, after obtaining the instruction, other operations such as judgment, generation, processing, etc. are performed first, and then it is decided whether to perform working network conversion. The form of the instruction is not specifically limited here. According to the working network conversion, the conversion indication information is generated, which can be understood as, after the working network conversion is detected, information indicating that the terminal has a working network conversion event is generated based on the event that will occur or has occurred, i.e., the conversion indication information. Of course, the conversion indication information can also include other information content, etc.

[0039] 202. The conversion indication information is sent to the base station.

[0040] Specifically, it can be understood that, after the terminal generates the conversion indication message, the terminal sends the conversion indication information to the base station. The purpose of the sending can be to facilitate the base station to obtain the conversion indication message in time. And the communication state of the terminal can be adjusted based on the conversion indication message. For example, through the conversion indication message, the base station determines that the terminal will or has performed a working network conversion operation, and then further, the base station determines the communication state of the terminal based on the duration after the working network conversion or the service performed by the terminal after the conversion. The sending of the handover conversion indication information to the base station can also enable the base station to obtain information of the terminal, such as information of the working network conversion, UE capability information of the terminal, state information of the terminal, etc.

[0041] It can be seen that, in the embodiments of the present application, after the multi-card terminal detects the conversion of the working network, conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network, and the conversion indication information is sent to the base station, so that the base station can obtain the working network conversion event that is occurring or will occur to the terminal in time. Further, the communication state of the terminal is adjusted through the conversion indication information. Therefore, the accuracy of the judgment of the base station on the current state of the multi-card terminal is increased, and further, the base station can better configure and use network resources, and the waste of network resources caused by the working network conversion of the multi-card terminal is reduced.

[0042] In one possible example, the conversion indication information includes any one or more of the following: a working network conversion indication, a working network conversion reason, a conversion duration of the working network, a priority of the conversion service, a type of triggering the conversion service, a keep connection request indication, and network information to be switched to another working network.

[0043] Specifically, the indication of a network switching can be implicit, encrypted, or represented by codes or symbols; it can also be expressed directly through message names, text, symbols, voice, or images. Regardless of the method, it can be recognized by the base station to indicate that the terminal is about to, has already, or is currently switching networks. Reasons for network switching can include: the terminal performing routine multi-SIM operations (e.g., periodically switching between two networks); the terminal receiving paging information from another network and switching networks; the terminal initiating a mobility update process on another network; the terminal initiating high-priority services such as Voice over Long-Term Evolution (VOLTE), Voice over New Radio (VoNR), or video calls on another network; the type of service triggering the switching, such as a specific or non-specific type; the terminal initiating a data service on another network; or the terminal ending its DRX sleep cycle on another network. The duration of the network switching is the time from initiation to termination of the service after the switch. The time can be an exact value, such as accurate to milliseconds; or it can be a time range; or it can be an indication of a relative duration, such as the expected duration being long / medium / short, etc. The specific time range can be divided according to different standards. The priority of the switching service can be understood as follows: if the switching of the working network is triggered by signaling / data services of another network, the message can further include the priority information of the triggering service, such as signaling (calls, etc.) being a high-priority service, and (ordinary data transmission, etc.) being a low-priority service. Additionally, the maintain connection request indication can be understood as follows: if the terminal is currently in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection state, and the terminal wants the base station to temporarily maintain its connection state, the switching indication information can directly include a maintain connection request indication and the network information of the other working network to be switched to. This maintain connection request indication can be in the form of an implicit indication, encryption, or code; or it can be expressed directly through message names, text, symbols, voice, images, etc. However, whether the method is direct or indirect, it can be recognized by the base station, indicating that the terminal wants the base station to temporarily maintain the connection.

[0044] In addition, the conversion indication information can further include a radio access type (RAT) to be converted to another working network, an operator name, an operator public land mobile network (PLMN), and the like.

[0045] It can be seen that the specific situation of the terminal working network conversion can be more accurately and comprehensively reflected by any one or more information included in the conversion indication information.

[0046] In one possible example, the UE capability report information is sent to the base station.

[0047] Specifically, it can be understood that the terminal can send the UE capability report information to the base station autonomously, or can be sent in response to a capability report request message of the base station.

[0048] It can be seen that the terminal sends the UE capability report information of the terminal to the base station, which facilitates indicating the capability information of the UE to the base station.

[0049] In one possible example, the UE capability report information includes any one or more of the following: the number of terminal identification cards, the terminal radio frequency information, and the information list of the working network.

[0050] Specifically, the number of terminal identification cards is, for example, two cards or three cards, and the like. The terminal radio frequency information is, for example, any one of single transmit single receive, single transmit multiple receive, and multiple transmit single receive, that is, a plurality of user identification cards share a set of radio frequency systems. The information list of the working network can include one or more combinations of the network RAT type, the operator name, and the operator PLMN of the working network corresponding to each identification card included in the terminal. The working networks corresponding to different identification cards can be the same or different.

[0051] It can be seen that the terminal sends the UE capability report information of the terminal to the base station, which contains multiple aspects, and facilitates indicating that the terminal is a multi-card multi-standby terminal and the specific association information of the working networks corresponding to the plurality of identification cards of the terminal.

[0052] In one possible example, after detecting the conversion of the working network, the method further includes: obtaining the conversion duration of the working network; and generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network includes: if the conversion duration of the working network is greater than or equal to a first time threshold, the conversion of the working network generates the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network; and / or, if the conversion duration of the working network is less than the first time threshold, the conversion indication information is not generated.

[0053] Specifically, it can be understood that, after obtaining the conversion of the working network, the conversion duration of the working network can also be obtained, and when the conversion duration of the working network is greater than or equal to a first time threshold, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network. Otherwise, the conversion indication information is not generated. The first time threshold can be pre-set or generated in real time, and the specific setting standard can be set according to the conversion service and the priority of the service. The first time threshold can be set based on historical statistical data or after estimation.

[0054] It can be seen that, after obtaining the conversion of the working network, the conversion duration of the working network is obtained, and when the conversion duration of the working network is greater than or equal to a first time threshold, the conversion indication information is generated. In the case of a short conversion duration, the generation of the conversion indication information can avoid wasting resources of the terminal.

[0055] In one possible example, after detecting the conversion of the working network, the method further includes: obtaining the priority of the conversion service, the conversion service being a service performed by the terminal after the conversion of the working network; and generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network includes: if the priority of the conversion service is higher than the priority of the current service, generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network; and / or if the priority of the conversion service is less than or equal to the priority of the current service, not generating the conversion indication information.

[0056] Specifically, it can be understood that, after obtaining the conversion of the working network, the priority of the conversion service can also be obtained, and when the priority of the conversion service is higher than the priority of the current service, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network. Moreover, the conversion service can be understood as a service triggering the conversion, and thus the service can be a service being performed or a service to be performed. Corresponding to the conversion service, the current service refers to a service being performed by the working network before the conversion. For example, the first network is the working network, and the service performed by the first network is the current service. After the working network is converted from the first network to the second network, the service performed by the second network after the conversion is the conversion service. It can be understood that the priority of the conversion service is pre-set, such as high-priority services like signaling (such as calls) and low-priority services like ordinary data transmission. For example, when the priority of the conversion service is lower than the priority of the current service, the conversion of the working network can be performed after the current service is completed.

[0057] It can be seen that after obtaining the conversion of the working network, the priority of the conversion service is obtained again, and the conversion indication information is generated again when the priority of the conversion service is higher than the priority of the current service. It can be avoided that the current service data is lost due to the conversion of the working network when the priority of the conversion service is lower than the priority of the current service.

[0058] In one possible example, after the conversion of the working network is detected, the method further includes:

[0059] Obtaining type information of a conversion service, the conversion service being a service performed by the terminal after the conversion of the working network; and generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network includes: if the type of the conversion service is a specific service type, generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network; and / or if the type of the conversion service is not the specific service type, not generating the conversion indication information.

[0060] Specifically, it can be understood that after the conversion of the working network is obtained, the type information of the conversion service can also be obtained, such as pre-classifying the conversion service into several categories according to certain standards, and pre-setting a specific service type. The service belonging to the specific service type generates the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network. For example, if the type of the conversion service is a voice message, the conversion indication information is generated if the voice message belongs to the specific service type. Conversely, if the voice message does not belong to the specific service type, the conversion indication information is not generated. That is, when the specific service type is defined in advance, some conversion services can be pre-set as the specific service type; similarly, some services other than the conversion services can also be pre-set as the specific service type.

[0061] Further, if the type of the conversion service is the specific service type, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network; and if the type of the conversion service is not the specific service type, the conversion indication information is not generated. It can be understood that the types of the services converted before and after are not the same service type. For example, the former is a video call incoming call, which belongs to the specific service type, and the conversion indication information is generated. And the latter is a short message, which does not belong to the specific service type, and the conversion indication information is not generated.

[0062] It can be seen that after obtaining the conversion of the working network, the type of the conversion service is obtained again, and the conversion indication information is generated again when the type of the conversion service is the specific service type. It can be avoided that the conversion indication information is generated when the type of the conversion service does not conform to the specific service type, causing resource waste.

[0063] In one possible example, the type information of the conversion service is from the base station configuration.

[0064] Specifically, it can be understood that the type information of the conversion service is configured by the base station in advance, and can be stored in the terminal in the form of a list, or can be stored in the base station. Moreover, when the base station configures the type information of the conversion service, if it is based on "if the type of the conversion service is a specific service type, generating conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network", the specific service type can be defined as a type including a small number of conversion services, and the non-specific service type is a type including a large number of conversion services.

[0065] It can be seen that the type information of the conversion service obtained by the terminal is configured by the base station in advance, so that the terminal can obtain the type information of the conversion service in time when detecting the conversion of the working network. Moreover, the specific service type is a type including a small number of conversion services, which can reduce the frequency of generating conversion indication information by the terminal according to the conversion of the working network, thereby reducing the signaling burden of the terminal.

[0066] In one possible example, after detecting the conversion of the working network, the method further includes: obtaining a working network conversion reason; and generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network includes: if the working network conversion reason is a specific reason type, generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network; and / or if the working network conversion reason is a non-specific reason type, not generating the conversion indication information.

[0067] Specifically, it can be understood that there can be many reasons for triggering the conversion of the working network, such as triggering due to various types of services initiated or received by the terminal in another network. In addition to service-triggered triggering, the terminal can also perform regular multi-card operations, such as periodic conversion between two or more working networks. If the periodic network conversion of the terminal is set as a specific reason type, the conversion indication information is generated according to the periodic network conversion. Conversely, other conversion reasons can also be set as specific reason types. The specific reason type can be set according to different standards, which is not limited herein.

[0068] It can be seen that after obtaining the conversion of the working network, the reason for the conversion of the working network is obtained, and the conversion indication information is generated again when the working network conversion reason is a specific reason type. It can avoid generating conversion indication information when the working network conversion reason does not meet the specific reason type, which causes resource waste.

[0069] In one possible example, the working network conversion reason type information is from the base station configuration.

[0070] Specifically, it can be understood that the working network conversion reason type information is pre-configured by the base station, and can be stored in the terminal in the form of a list, or can also be stored in the base station. Moreover, when the base station configures the type information of the working network conversion reason, if it is based on "if the working network conversion reason is a specific reason type, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network", the specific reason type can be defined as a type including a small number of working network conversion reasons, and the non-specific service type is a type including a large number of working network conversion reasons.

[0071] It can be seen that the type information of the working network conversion reason acquired by the terminal is pre-configured by the base station, so that the terminal can acquire the type information of the working network conversion reason in time when detecting the conversion of the working network. Moreover, if the specific reason type is a type including a small number of working network conversion reasons, the frequency of generating the conversion indication information by the terminal according to the conversion of the working network can be reduced, thereby reducing the signaling burden of the terminal.

[0072] In one possible example, after detecting the conversion of the working network, the method further includes: acquiring a time interval between the conversion of the working network and the previous conversion; and the generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network includes: if the time interval is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, generating the conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network; and / or, if the time interval is less than the second time threshold, not generating the conversion indication information.

[0073] Specifically, it can be understood that after detecting the conversion instruction of the working card, the time interval between the conversion of the working network and the previous conversion instruction is acquired, and in the case that the time interval is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network. That is, the time interval between two conversion instructions is greater than the second time threshold, and the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network. The second time threshold can be pre-set or generated in real time, and the specific setting standard can be set according to the conversion service and the priority of the service. The setting can be based on historical statistical data or can be set after estimation.

[0074] Further, the time interval can be calculated in the following way: after the previous conversion instruction is obtained, a first timer is started, and when the first timer reaches a second time threshold, the time of the first timer is reset to the initial state and the counting is stopped. If the conversion of the working network is detected, the state of the first timer is obtained, and if the first timer is in the stopped state, it indicates that the time interval is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network, and the conversion indication information is sent to the base station. Alternatively, if the first timer is in the counting state, the working card is converted from the first identification card to the second identification card again. The time when the previous conversion instruction is obtained can also be recorded as T1, and the time when the current conversion instruction is detected can be recorded as T2. If T2-T1>the second time threshold, it indicates that the time interval is greater than or equal to the second time threshold, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network, and the conversion indication information is sent to the base station. Alternatively, if T2-T1<the second time threshold, the conversion indication information is not generated.

[0075] It can be seen that, by obtaining the time interval between two conversion instructions, the air interface signaling burden is avoided in the case of too frequent conversion.

[0076] In one possible example, after the conversion of the working network is detected, the method further includes: starting a timer, and when the timer counts a change T0, the time of the timer is reset to the initial state and the counting is stopped; if the conversion of the working network is obtained again, the state of the timer is obtained; if the timer is in the stopped state, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network, and the conversion indication information is sent to the base station, and / or if the timer is in the running state, the conversion indication information is not sent.

[0077] Specifically, it can be understood that, after the conversion of the working network is detected, a timer Tswitch-prohibit is started, and even if the conversion of the working network occurs during the counting period of the timer, the indication is not sent. Moreover, the timer is automatically reset after the counting time is up. For example, taking the initial state of the timer as 0 and the upper limit of the counting as T0, that is, when the counting reaches T0, the timer is reset to 0. If the conversion of the working network is obtained again, the state of the timer is 0, which indicates that the counting has exceeded T0, and the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network, and the conversion indication information is sent to the base station. Otherwise, the conversion indication information is not generated. Of course, the initial state of the timer can also be other time, and the timer is reset to the other time of the initial state after the time is increased or decreased by T0.

[0078] It can be seen that the time interval between two conversion instructions is obtained by the timer, and the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion of the working network only when the time interval is greater than the preset time interval, thereby avoiding increasing the air interface signaling burden in the case of too frequent conversion.

[0079] In one possible example, the conversion indication information is sent in any one or more of the following forms: dedicated RRC signaling, physical layer signaling, MAC CE message, PDCP Control PDU.

[0080] Specifically, it can be understood that the conversion indication information is sent to the base station, and the message can be sent in the form of dedicated RRC signaling, physical layer signaling, MAC control element (Mac Control Element, MAC CE) message, packet data convergence protocol (Packet Data Convergence Protocol, PDCP) control protocol data unit (Protocol Data Unit, PDU). Taking the MAC CE form as an example, different contents of the working network conversion indication information are represented by sending different bits of information, such as Figure 2B As shown: 1bit S indicates the indication of the working network conversion, 2bit C indicates the index of the conversion reason, which can correspond to an index table, and different conversion reasons correspond to different identifiers; 5bit T indicates the length of the expected duration, etc. Among them, S, C, T are specific information contents sent.

[0081] It can be seen that when sending the conversion indication information to the base station, the information can be sent in various forms, making the sending of the information more convenient and improving the sending efficiency.

[0082] Consistent with the above embodiment, please refer to the present embodiment. Another information indication method provided by the present embodiment comprises:

[0083] Receiving conversion indication information, the conversion indication information is sent by the terminal and used to indicate that the terminal has a working network conversion event.

[0084] Specifically, it can be understood that the base station receives the conversion indication message, and the conversion indication message is used to indicate that the terminal has a working network conversion event. Of course, the conversion indication information can also include other information associated with the working network conversion event, etc.

[0085] It can be seen that the base station receives the conversion indication information from the terminal, which can adjust the communication state of the terminal based on the conversion indication information, realize the reasonable configuration of the communication resource, and reduce the waste of resources. It can also facilitate the base station to obtain the current state of the terminal, so that the base station takes other management measures.

[0086] In one possible example, after receiving the conversion indication information from the terminal, the method further comprises adjusting the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information.

[0087] Specifically, it can be understood that, after receiving the conversion indication information, the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal based on the conversion indication information. The communication state of the terminal is the communication connection relationship between the terminal and the base station, such as maintaining an RRC connection, disconnecting an RRC connection, or adjusting the terminal to an inactive state, etc. The communication state of the terminal can also be the channel resource allocated by the base station to the terminal, such as allocating channel resources to the terminal, reserving channel resources, or releasing channel resources, etc.

[0088] It can be seen that, after receiving the conversion indication information from the terminal, the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information. The communication resources are reasonably configured, and the resource waste is reduced.

[0089] In one possible example, after adjusting the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information, the method further comprises sending working network conversion confirmation information to the terminal.

[0090] Specifically, it can be understood that, after the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information, the base station further sends working network conversion confirmation information to the terminal, informing the terminal that the base station has confirmed that the terminal can or cannot perform working network conversion, and has some related information.

[0091] It can be seen that, after the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information, the base station further sends working network conversion confirmation information to the terminal. This is convenient for the terminal to confirm that the base station has received the working network conversion information and has confirmed it, and is also convenient for the terminal to make corresponding operations.

[0092] In one possible example, the conversion indication information includes any one or more of the following: working network conversion indication, working network conversion reason, working network conversion duration, conversion service priority, type of triggering conversion service, keep connection request indication, network information to be switched to another working network.

[0093] Specifically, it can be understood that the working network conversion indication mode can be implicit indication, encryption, or code, etc.; or can be directly expressed by message name, text, symbol, voice, picture, etc. Whether it is direct or indirect, it can be recognized by the base station that the terminal will or has or is performing working network conversion. The working network conversion reason can include: the terminal performs regular multi-card operation (such as periodic conversion between 2 working networks); the terminal receives paging information of another network and converts the working network; the terminal initiates a mobility update process in another network; the terminal initiates high-priority services such as Voice over Long-Term Evolution (VOLTE) service, Voice over New Radio (VoNR) service, video call, etc. in another network; the terminal initiates data services in another network; the terminal ends the DRX sleep period in another network, etc. The duration of the working network conversion, that is, the time from the conversion of the working network to another network to the end of the service after the conversion. The time can be an accurate time value, such as a time accurate to ms; or it can also be based on the UE's estimated time; or it can be a time interval range; or it can also be an indication of a relative time length, such as the time expected to last long / medium / short, etc. The specific time interval division can be performed according to different standards. The priority of the conversion service can be understood as if the working network conversion is triggered by another network signaling / data service, the message can further include priority information of the triggering service, such as high-priority service for signaling (call, etc.) and low-priority service for (ordinary data transmission, etc.). In addition, the keep-alive request indication can be understood as if the terminal is currently in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection state, if the terminal hopes that the base station will temporarily keep the connection state, the keep-alive request indication will be directly included in the conversion indication information, and the network information will be switched to another working network. The keep-alive request indication mode can be implicit indication, encryption, or code, etc.; or can be directly expressed by message name, text, symbol, voice, picture, etc. Whether it is direct or indirect, it can be recognized by the base station that the terminal hopes that the base station will temporarily keep the connection state.

[0094] In addition, the switching instruction information may also include the Radio Access Type (RAT), operator name, and operator's Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) of the network to which the switch is to take place.

[0095] It is evident that by utilizing any one or more pieces of information included in the conversion indication information, the base station can more accurately and comprehensively obtain the specific details of the terminal's network switching based on the conversion indication information.

[0096] In one possible example, UE capability reporting information is received from the terminal.

[0097] Specifically, this can be understood as the UE capability reporting information received by the base station from the terminal, which can be sent by the terminal to the base station independently, or as a response to the base station's capability report request message.

[0098] As can be seen, the base station receives UE capability reporting information from the terminal, which helps the base station determine the terminal's capabilities based on the UE capability reporting information, thereby more accurately judging the terminal's hardware status.

[0099] Specifically, the number of terminal identification cards may be dual or triple. The terminal radio frequency system structure may be any of the following: single-transmit single-receive, single-transmit multiple-receive, or multiple-transmit single-receive, meaning multiple user identification cards share a single radio frequency system. The list of working network information may include one or more of the following: network RAT type, operator name, operator PLMN, etc., for each identification card included in the terminal. Different identification cards may correspond to the same or different working networks.

[0100] As can be seen, the base station receives UE capability reporting information from the terminal, determines that the terminal is a multi-SIM multi-standby terminal, and obtains the specific association information of the working networks corresponding to the multiple identification cards of the terminal. This allows the base station to more accurately determine the terminal's status (e.g., whether it is a periodic and brief working network switch rather than an abnormal state) when it learns that the terminal is about to switch working networks. This enables the base station to maintain a communication connection with the terminal, reserve channel resources for the terminal, and avoid delays and signaling burdens for subsequent access.

[0101] In one possible example, the UE capability reporting information includes any one or more of the following: the number of terminal identification cards, the terminal radio frequency information, and the information list of the working network.

[0102] Specifically, this can be understood as the terminal being able to independently send UE capability reporting information to the base station, or it can be sent as a response to the base station's capability report request message.

[0103] It can be seen that the terminal sends the UE capability report information of the terminal to the base station, so as to indicate the capability information of the UE to the base station.

[0104] In one possible example, the adjusting the communication state of the terminal includes at least one of the following: adjusting the communication state of the terminal to a first state, the first state being a state of maintaining a communication connection; adjusting the communication state of the terminal to a second state, the second state being an inactive state; adjusting the communication state of the terminal to a third state, the third state being a connection release state.

[0105] Specifically, it can be understood that the communication state of the terminal is adjusted, for example, the base station decides to maintain the RRC connection for the terminal, and then the communication state of the terminal is adjusted to the first state. Further, a corresponding notification message can be sent to the terminal, and the notification message can be sent in the form of dedicated RRC signaling, physical layer signaling, a MAC control element (MAC CE), a message packet data convergence protocol (PDCP), a control protocol data unit (PDU), etc. If the base station decides to switch the terminal to an inactive / non-active (RRC_Inactive) state, i.e., the second state, a corresponding RRC Release message with SuspendConfig configuration can be sent to the terminal to indicate the terminal to enter the inactive state. If the base station decides to release the RRC connection of the terminal, i.e., the communication state of the terminal is adjusted to the third state, an RRCRelease message can also be sent to the terminal to release the RRC connection.

[0106] It can be seen that the base station adjusts the terminal to different communication states, which can effectively improve the resource allocation efficiency and resource utilization rate, avoid the waste of channel resources, and increase the signaling burden. In addition, when the terminal needs to maintain a communication connection, the signaling delay can be reduced.

[0107] In one possible example, if the conversion indication information includes a conversion duration, the adjusting the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information includes: if the conversion duration is less than a first time threshold, adjusting the communication state of the terminal to a first state, the first state being a state in which the terminal maintains a communication connection; or, if the conversion duration is less than a second time threshold and greater than the first time threshold, adjusting the communication state of the terminal to a second state, the second state being an inactive state; or, if the conversion duration is greater than the second time threshold, adjusting the communication state of the terminal to a third state, the third state being a connection release state.

[0108] Specifically, it can be understood that the first time threshold and the second time threshold are pre-set by the base station, which can be the same or different from the first time threshold and the second time threshold in the foregoing method examples. The second time threshold is greater than the first time threshold, such as 5 ms for the second time threshold and 3 ms, 4 ms, or 1 ms for the first time threshold.

[0109] It can be seen that the communication state of the terminal is determined according to different conversion durations, which can effectively improve the resource allocation efficiency and resource utilization.

[0110] In one possible example, the conversion indication information includes a conversion duration of the working network, and after the communication state of the terminal is adjusted to the third state, the method further includes: generating connection indication information according to the conversion duration, the connection indication information being used to instruct the terminal to re-establish a communication connection with the terminal after the conversion duration is reached.

[0111] Specifically, it can be understood that the conversion indication information includes a conversion duration of the working network, and after the communication state of the terminal is adjusted to the third state, i.e., the RRC connection with the terminal is released, the connection indication information is generated according to the conversion duration of the working network, such as 1 s (second), 5 m (minute), or 0.3 h (hour) for the conversion duration. The base station generates and sends the connection indication information to the terminal, which is used to instruct the terminal to re-establish a communication connection with the terminal after the conversion duration of the working network is reached. Further, the base station re-establishes a communication connection relationship with the terminal after 1 s, 5 m, or 0.3 h.

[0112] It can be seen that after the base station releases the communication connection with the terminal, the connection indication information is generated according to the duration of the terminal conversion service, which facilitates the terminal to obtain the connection recovery time and effectively reduces the increase of network signaling delay and other problems.

[0113] In one possible example, the conversion indication information includes a keep connection request indication, and the adjusting the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information includes: keeping the communication connection state with the terminal according to the keep connection request indication.

[0114] Specifically, it can be understood that if the keep connection request indication is included in the conversion indication information, the base station effectively identifies the keep connection request indication after obtaining the conversion indication information, and directly keeps the communication connection state for the terminal.

[0115] It can be seen that, after the base station identifies the keep connection request indication, the communication connection state with the terminal is kept. The network signaling delay increase and other problems caused by the terminal disconnecting from the base station and then requesting connection again and waiting for the base station to allocate channel resources can be reduced.

[0116] Consistent with the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a flow diagram of another information indication method provided by the embodiment of the application. The method comprises:

[0117] 301, receiving conversion indication information, the conversion indication information being sent by a terminal and used for indicating that the terminal has a working network conversion event;

[0118] Specifically, it can be understood that the base station receives the conversion indication message, and the conversion indication message is used for indicating that the terminal has a working network conversion event. Of course, the conversion indication information can also include other information associated with the working network conversion event.

[0119] 302, adjusting the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information.

[0120] Specifically, it can be understood that, after receiving the conversion indication information, the base station can also adjust the communication state of the terminal based on the conversion indication message. The communication state of the terminal is the communication connection relationship between the terminal and the base station, such as keeping the RRC connection, disconnecting the RRC connection, or adjusting the terminal to the inactive state, etc. The communication state of the terminal can also be the channel resources allocated by the base station to the terminal, such as allocating channel resources to the terminal, reserving channel resources, or releasing channel resources, etc.

[0121] It can be seen that, after receiving the conversion indication information from the terminal, the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information. The communication resources are reasonably configured, and the resource waste is reduced.

[0122] Consistent with the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, Figure 3 , please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is an interaction diagram of an information indication method provided by the embodiment of the application.

[0123] 401, if the terminal detects the conversion of the working network, the terminal generates conversion indication information according to the conversion of the working network, and the conversion indication information is used for indicating that the terminal has a working network conversion event;

[0124] 402, the terminal sends the conversion indication information to the base station, so that the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information;

[0125] Steps 401-402 refer to steps 201-202 described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0126] 403. The base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information.

[0127] Optionally, after step 402, step 403 can also be performed, which refers to steps 301-302 described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0128] 404. The base station sends the working network conversion confirmation information to the terminal.

[0129] Optionally, after step 403, step 404 can also be performed. That is, the base station generates the working network conversion confirmation information before or after adjusting the communication state of the terminal, and can also send the working network conversion confirmation information to the terminal. The working network conversion confirmation information is used to inform the terminal that the terminal can perform the working network conversion, and the base station adjusts the communication state of the terminal and the information associated with the communication state. The adjusted communication state of the terminal is described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0130] It can be seen that after the terminal detects the working network conversion, the conversion indication information is generated according to the conversion instruction, and the conversion indication information is sent to the base station, so that the base station can adjust the communication state of the terminal according to the conversion indication information. The efficiency and effect of resource allocation are improved, and the resource utilization rate is also improved.
