[0058] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0059] Unless otherwise specified, descriptions such as “first” and “second” in the present disclosure are used to distinguish different objects and are not used to indicate meanings such as size or time sequence.

[0060] Figure 1 A schematic diagram showing a flow chart of a method for recycling electronic card numbers of an Internet of Things terminal according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, the method of this embodiment includes: steps 110-160.

[0062] In step 110, the electronic card number management device determines whether to recycle the old electronic card number allocated to the Internet of Things terminal.

[0063] The electronic card number management device uses different methods to determine whether to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the Internet of Things terminal according to the different devices that initiate the electronic card number recycling process. Figure 2-3 The embodiments are described in detail below.

[0064] Compared with human-connected terminals, IoT terminals are simple in form, many without display screens, drone interaction interfaces, and complex working environments. IoT terminals include but are not limited to various sensors, smart water meters, smart electric meters, smart wine bottle seals, foot rings and wristbands for competitions, etc.

[0065] In step 120, if the electronic card number management device determines to recycle the old electronic card number allocated to the Internet of Things terminal, it extracts a dedicated electronic card number from the dedicated electronic card number pool, and sends the dedicated electronic card number to the Internet of Things terminal via an electronic card number recycling indication message, wherein the electronic card number recycling indication message is used to instruct the Internet of Things terminal to write the dedicated electronic card number and destroy the old electronic card number.

[0066] A dedicated electronic card number pool is a small collection of multiple dedicated electronic card numbers that is specifically used to recycle old electronic card numbers.

[0067] If an old electronic card number of an IoT terminal needs to be recycled, a dedicated electronic card number can be extracted and sent to the IoT terminal through an electronic card number recycling indication message; if the old electronic card numbers of multiple IoT terminals need to be recycled in batches, multiple dedicated electronic card numbers can be extracted and each dedicated electronic card number can be sent to the IoT terminal separately through an electronic card number recycling indication message.

[0068] In step 130, the Internet of Things terminal receives an electronic card number recycling instruction message sent by the electronic card number management device, which carries the dedicated electronic card number.

[0069] In step 140, the Internet of Things terminal writes the dedicated electronic card number according to the instruction of the electronic card number recycling instruction message, and destroys the old electronic card number previously written by the terminal.

[0070] In step 150, the Internet of Things terminal uses the dedicated electronic card number to connect to the network, and returns an electronic card number destruction report to the electronic card number management device through the dedicated electronic card number, so as to confirm that the old electronic card number is successfully recycled.

[0071] In step 160, if the electronic card number management device receives an electronic card number destruction report returned by the Internet of Things terminal after executing the electronic card number recycling instruction message, and the electronic card number destruction report is returned through a dedicated electronic card number, it confirms that the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal has been successfully recycled.

[0072] This embodiment determines whether to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the Internet of Things terminal; if it is determined to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the Internet of Things terminal, extract the dedicated electronic card number from the dedicated electronic card number pool, and send the dedicated electronic card number to the Internet of Things terminal through an electronic card number recycling indication message, the electronic card number recycling indication message is used to instruct the Internet of Things terminal to write the dedicated electronic card number and destroy the old electronic card number; if the electronic card number destruction report returned by the Internet of Things terminal after executing the electronic card number recycling indication message is received, and the electronic card number destruction report is returned through the dedicated electronic card number, it is confirmed that the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal has been successfully recycled. An accurate Internet of Things terminal electronic card number recycling solution is realized, which improves the situation of a large amount of waste of Internet of Things electronic card number resources and saves a large amount of precious Internet of Things electronic card number resources.

[0073] Figure 2 A schematic flow chart of a method for recycling an electronic card number of an Internet of Things terminal initiated by an Internet of Things terminal according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0074] like Figure 2 As shown, the method of this embodiment includes: steps 210-280.

[0075] In step 210, the IoT terminal detects whether a preset operation is executed.

[0076] The preset operation includes, for example, but is not limited to, the Internet of Things terminal or a preset component of the Internet of Things terminal being opened or destroyed.

[0077] For example, when the seal of a smart wine bottle is opened, it is considered that a preset operation is executed, which immediately triggers the recycling process of the old electronic card number assigned to the smart wine bottle seal.

[0078] For another example, when a wristband or anklet used for a competition is opened or damaged, it is considered that a preset operation is executed, and a recycling process of the old electronic card number assigned to the wristband or anklet is immediately triggered.

[0079] In step 220, if the Internet of Things terminal detects that the preset operation is executed, it sends an electronic card number recovery request message to the electronic card number management device, which carries the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal or the associated identifier of the old electronic card number.

[0080] The electronic card number can uniquely identify an electronic card.

[0081] The association identifier of the electronic card number is associated with the electronic card number, and the corresponding electronic card number can be found through the association identifier.

[0082] Electronic card numbers or their associated identifiers include but are not limited to: International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI), Integrated Circuit Card Identity (ICCID), International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI), Akey (Authentication Key), Electronic Serial Number (ESN), AN-AAA (Access Network-Authentication, Accounting, Authorization Server), etc.

[0083] In step 230, the electronic card number management device receives an electronic card number recovery request message sent by the Internet of Things terminal, which carries the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal or an associated identifier of the old electronic card number, and determines whether to recover the old electronic card number allocated to the Internet of Things terminal based on the electronic card number recovery request message.

[0084] In step 230a, if the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal or the associated identifier of the old electronic card number carried in the electronic card number recovery request message indicates that the old electronic card number requested for recovery does not belong to the electronic card number under the jurisdiction of the electronic card number management device, the electronic card number recovery request message is rejected and the recovery is rejected.

[0085] In step 230b, if the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal or the associated identifier of the old electronic card number carried in the electronic card number recovery request message indicates that the old electronic card number requested for recovery belongs to the electronic card number under the jurisdiction of the electronic card number management device, the electronic card number recovery request message is accepted and recovery is allowed.

[0086] If the electronic card number recovery request message is accepted, continue to execute subsequent steps.

[0087] In step 240, if the electronic card number management device determines to recycle the old electronic card number allocated to the Internet of Things terminal, it extracts a dedicated electronic card number from the dedicated electronic card number pool, and sends the dedicated electronic card number to the Internet of Things terminal via an electronic card number recycling indication message, wherein the electronic card number recycling indication message is used to instruct the Internet of Things terminal to write the dedicated electronic card number and destroy the old electronic card number.

[0088] In step 250, the Internet of Things terminal receives an electronic card number recycling instruction message sent by the electronic card number management device, which carries the dedicated electronic card number, and writes the dedicated electronic card number according to the instruction of the electronic card number recycling instruction message, and destroys the old electronic card number previously written by the terminal.

[0089] In step 260, the Internet of Things terminal uses the dedicated electronic card number to connect to the network, and returns an electronic card number destruction report to the electronic card number management device through the dedicated electronic card number, so as to confirm that the old electronic card number is successfully recycled.

[0090] In step 270, if the electronic card number management device receives an electronic card number destruction report returned by the Internet of Things terminal after executing the electronic card number recycling instruction message, and the electronic card number destruction report is returned through a dedicated electronic card number, it confirms that the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal has been successfully recycled.

[0091] In step 280, optionally, when confirming that the old electronic card number of the IoT terminal has been successfully recycled, the electronic card number management device may also return a destruction report confirmation response to the IoT terminal, so that the IoT terminal knows that its old electronic card number has been successfully recycled.

[0092] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the method for recycling the electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal initiated by the Internet of Things terminal not only improves the situation of massive waste of the Internet of Things electronic card number resources and saves a large amount of precious Internet of Things electronic card number resources, but also recycles the old electronic card number in time when the Internet of Things terminal is executing a preset operation, thereby improving the recycling efficiency.

[0093] Figure 3 A schematic flow chart of a method for recycling electronic card numbers of Internet of Things terminals initiated by an electronic card number management device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0094] like Figure 3 As shown, the method of this embodiment includes: steps 310-360.

[0095] In step 310, the electronic card number management device determines whether to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the Internet of Things terminal according to the state of the Internet of Things terminal or whether the life cycle of the Internet of Things terminal has expired.

[0096] Determine whether to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the IoT terminal according to the status of the IoT terminal, including: if the status of the IoT terminal indicates that the IoT terminal is a defective product or a discarded product, determine to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the IoT terminal.

[0097] For example, the products produced by the production line have a certain yield rate. Products marked as defective products are determined to be products that need to recycle old electronic card numbers.

[0098] For another example, a product needs to be discarded after being used for a period of time. Products marked as discarded are determined to be products that need to recycle old electronic card numbers.

[0099] Determine whether to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the IoT terminal according to whether the life cycle of the IoT terminal has arrived, including: if the life cycle of the IoT terminal has arrived, determine to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the IoT terminal; if the life cycle of the IoT terminal has not arrived, determine not to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the IoT terminal.

[0100] In step 320, if the electronic card number management device determines to recycle the old electronic card number assigned to the Internet of Things terminal, it extracts a dedicated electronic card number from the dedicated electronic card number pool, and sends the dedicated electronic card number to the Internet of Things terminal via an electronic card number recycling indication message, wherein the electronic card number recycling indication message is used to instruct the Internet of Things terminal to write the dedicated electronic card number and destroy the old electronic card number.

[0101] In step 330, the Internet of Things terminal receives the electronic card number recycling instruction message sent by the electronic card number management device, which carries the dedicated electronic card number. The Internet of Things terminal writes the dedicated electronic card number according to the instruction of the electronic card number recycling instruction message and destroys the old electronic card number previously written by the terminal.

[0102] In step 340, the Internet of Things terminal uses the dedicated electronic card number to connect to the network, and returns an electronic card number destruction report to the electronic card number management device through the dedicated electronic card number, so as to confirm that the old electronic card number is successfully recycled.

[0103] In step 350, if the electronic card number management device receives an electronic card number destruction report returned by the Internet of Things terminal after executing the electronic card number recycling instruction message, and the electronic card number destruction report is returned through a dedicated electronic card number, it confirms that the old electronic card number of the Internet of Things terminal has been successfully recycled.

[0104] In step 360, optionally, when confirming that the old electronic card number of the IoT terminal has been successfully recycled, the electronic card number management device may also return a destruction report confirmation response to the IoT terminal, so that the IoT terminal knows that its old electronic card number has been successfully recycled.

[0105] In the above embodiment, the method for recycling electronic card numbers of Internet of Things terminals initiated by the electronic card number management device not only improves the situation of massive waste of Internet of Things electronic card number resources and saves a large number of precious Internet of Things electronic card number resources, but also can timely and batch recycle old electronic card numbers according to the status of the Internet of Things terminal or whether its life cycle has been reached, thereby improving recycling efficiency.
