Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to, but is not limited to, the field of communication technology, and in particular to a communication method, apparatus, terminal, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread adoption of mobile terminals, their form factors are trending towards thinner, lighter, and more transparent designs. Furthermore, with the advancements in 5G and other communication technologies, hardware system upgrades and heavy-load computing scenarios are becoming increasingly common.

However, if these cloud-hosted terminals lack the corresponding communication modules for 5G or other mobile communication technologies, they cannot provide 5G or other mobile communication services with other terminals on or outside the cloud server.

[0071] Figure 8 This is a block diagram illustrating a terminal according to an exemplary embodiment. Detailed Implementation

[0072] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0073] Regarding the apparatus in the above embodiments, the specific manner in which each module performs its operation has been described in detail in the embodiments related to the method, and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0074] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a communication method according to an exemplary embodiment; as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the communication method includes the following steps:

[0075] Step S11: Receive a request message sent by the first terminal based on the first communication method, wherein the first terminal cannot establish a communication connection through the second communication method;

[0076] Step S12: Based on the request message, use the second communication method to communicate with the second terminal; wherein the second communication method is different from the first communication method.

[0077] The communication method provided in this embodiment is executed by a cloud server. This cloud server can be of various types. In one embodiment, the cloud server can be a server within a cloud system. For example, the cloud system includes a cloud server and at least one first terminal; the cloud server can provide computing services to at least one first terminal, etc.

[0078] In one embodiment, both the first terminal and the second terminal can be various mobile devices or bone fixation devices. For example, the first terminal and the second terminal can be mobile phones, displays, headphones, speakers, tablets, wearable devices, etc.

[0079] In one embodiment, both the first terminal and the second terminal can be terminals hosted on a cloud server. The first terminal and the second terminal here have the same information processing capabilities, etc.; both the first terminal and the second terminal can implement communication services based on the first communication method, but neither can implement communication services based on the second communication method.

[0080] In another embodiment, the first terminal is a terminal under the cloud server, and the second terminal can be a terminal outside the cloud server. For example, the first terminal can implement communication services based on a first communication method but not communication services based on a second communication method; the second terminal can implement communication services based on a second communication method. Exemplarily, the first terminal here can be a scaled-down version of the second terminal; for example, the internal configuration of the first terminal is a scaled-down version of the internal configuration of the second terminal.

[0081] In one embodiment, the first terminal can connect to the cloud server to obtain resources from the cloud server. In this case, during user operation, most computations are performed on the cloud server, and the first terminal is responsible for obtaining resources from the cloud server; the first terminal can be considered an input / output interface, or at least responsible for lightweight computations.

[0082] In one embodiment, the first communication method is a communication method without network-side involvement. For example, the first communication method is a communication method without base station involvement. For example, the first communication method can be a communication method of various local area networks. For example, the first communication method includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: Bluetooth communication method or mobile hotspot (Wi-Fi) communication method.

[0083] In one embodiment, the second communication method is a communication method involving the network side. For example, the second communication method is a communication method involving the base station. For example, the second communication method includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: second-generation mobile communication technology (2G), third-generation communication technology (3G), fourth-generation communication technology (3G), fifth-generation communication technology (5G), or communication methods of various evolved or next-generation communication technologies.

[0084] Here, the inability of the first terminal to establish a communication connection through the second communication method may include at least one of the following: the first terminal is unable to establish a communication connection with the cloud server through the second communication method; or the first terminal is unable to establish a communication connection with the second terminal through the second communication method.

[0085] In some embodiments, the first terminal is unable to establish a communication connection via the second communication method, including one of the following:

[0086] The first terminal does not have the capability to establish a communication connection using the second communication method;

[0087] The first terminal has the ability to establish a communication connection using the second communication method, but the signal strength of the first terminal communicating using the second communication method is less than the strength threshold.

[0088] In one embodiment, the first terminal's lack of the ability to establish a communication connection using the second communication method can mean that the first terminal does not have a communication module corresponding to the second communication method. For example, the second terminal does not have a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) or an embedded SIM (eSIM), etc.

[0089] In one embodiment, the first terminal's ability to establish a communication connection using the second communication method can mean that the first terminal has a communication module corresponding to the second communication method. For example, the second terminal may include, but is not limited to, at least one SIM card and / or at least one eSIM card.

[0090] In one embodiment, the signal strength of the first terminal communicating using the second communication method being less than a strength threshold can mean that the signal strength of the cell where the first terminal is located communicating using the second communication method is less than a strength threshold. For example, the serving cell where the first terminal is located is cell A; the first terminal receives a reference signal with a signal strength less than a strength threshold within a predetermined time in cell A; thus, the first terminal cannot communicate with the network side or a second terminal, etc., using the second communication method.

[0091] In one embodiment, the communication service includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: telephone, SMS, WeChat, and communication connection. In another embodiment, the communication service includes, but is not limited to, a call; the call includes: a mobile calling (MO) or a mobile called (MT).

[0092] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cloud system includes a cloud server and multiple first terminals; these multiple first terminals can be first terminal 1, first terminal 2, ..., and first terminal N; where N is an integer greater than 1. The cloud server includes at least one communication module, one of which is bound to a first terminal; this communication module can be eSIM1, eSIM2, ..., and eSIM N. Communication between the first terminal and the base station can be as follows: the first terminal connects to the cloud server, and the cloud server communicates with the base station. Communication between the first terminal and a second terminal can be as follows: the first terminal connects to the cloud server, the cloud server communicates with the base station, and then the base station communicates with the second terminal. In this cloud system, a first terminal can also communicate with at least one other first terminal; for example, first terminal 1 can also communicate with first terminal 2 or first terminal N, etc.; in this case, first terminal 1 is the first terminal in the above embodiment, and first terminal 2 or first terminal N is the second terminal in the above embodiment.

[0093] In this embodiment, a cloud server can receive a request message sent by a first terminal using a first communication method, wherein the first terminal cannot establish a communication connection using a second communication method. Based on the request message, the second communication method is used to provide communication services to the second terminal, wherein the second communication method is different from the first communication method. Thus, when the first terminal in this embodiment cannot communicate with the second terminal using the second communication method, it can establish a communication connection with the cloud server, thereby enabling communication services between the first terminal and the second terminal using the second communication method. Therefore, this embodiment enables the first terminal to still provide communication services to the second terminal even when it cannot communicate using the second communication method.

[0094] For example, if the first terminal cannot achieve 2G, 3G, 4G or 5G communication, it can first connect to the cloud server based on Bluetooth or WIFI and then achieve 2G, 3G, 4G or 5G communication with the second terminal based on the cloud server; this can also improve and diversify the communication methods between the first terminal and the second terminal.

[0095] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, step S11 includes:

[0096] Step S111: Receive a request message carrying an identification code sent by the first terminal based on the first communication method;

[0097] Step S12 includes:

[0098] Step S121: Based on the identification code, use the second communication method to perform communication services with the second terminal corresponding to the identification code.

[0099] In one embodiment, the identification code is used to indicate a communication module; for example, the identification code can be an identifier corresponding to a SIM or eSIM. This identification code is bound to a first terminal; or it is bound to a first or second terminal under a cloud server; or it can also be bound to a second terminal under a cloud server.

[0100] In one embodiment, an identification code is used to uniquely identify a terminal. For example, such as... Figure 2 As shown, eSIM1 identifies first terminal 1; eSIM2 identifies first terminal 2; and eSIM N identifies first terminal N. In this way, the cloud server can find the corresponding first or second terminal for communication. For example, when a first terminal of the cloud server calls another first terminal in the cloud server, the cloud server can find the other first terminal corresponding to that identifier based on the identifier code. Similarly, when the cloud server receives a call from a second terminal, the cloud server can find the first terminal corresponding to that identifier based on the identifier code.

[0101] Of course, in other embodiments, a single identifier can also be used to identify multiple terminals or all terminals in the cloud server. For example, Figure 2 The first terminal 1, first terminal 2, ... and first terminal N shown are all identified by eSIM. Thus, when a terminal outside the cloud server requests to communicate with a terminal in the cloud server, it can find the cloud server corresponding to the identifier code, but cannot find the terminal in the cloud server to communicate based on the identifier code.

[0102] In one embodiment, the identifier can also be linked to a user account on a cloud server. For example, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the user account on the cloud server is bound to eSIM1, eSIM2, and eSIM N. Thus, in this embodiment of the disclosure, it is possible to determine, based on the identifier code, whether the terminal actively paging or being paging is a terminal on the cloud server.

[0103] In this embodiment of the disclosure, an identification code can be carried in the request message, which enables the cloud server to accurately locate the terminal that needs to perform communication services, thereby improving the effectiveness of communication services based on the second method.

[0104] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the step of using the second communication method to provide communication services with the second terminal includes:

[0105] Step S122: Use the second communication method to communicate with the second terminal under the cloud server;

[0106] or,

[0107] Step S123: Use the second communication method to communicate with the second terminal that cannot communicate via the first communication method.

[0108] In one embodiment, the second terminal is a terminal on the cloud server other than the first terminal. In another embodiment, the second terminal is a terminal outside the cloud server.

[0109] The second terminal cannot provide communication services through the first communication method, including but not limited to: the second terminal cannot provide communication services with the first terminal through the first communication method.

[0110] For example, two terminals in a cloud server, such as... Figure 2 After both the first terminal 1 and the first terminal 2 establish a communication connection with the cloud server through the first communication method, if the cloud server receives a request message from the first terminal 1 requesting to communicate with the first terminal 2, the cloud server will provide communication services to the first terminal 2.

[0111] For example, such as Figure 2 After the first terminal 1 establishes a communication connection with the cloud server through the first communication method, if the cloud server receives a request message from the first terminal 1 requesting to communicate with the second terminal, the cloud server will provide communication services to the second terminal.

[0112] In this embodiment of the disclosure, at least two terminals belonging to the same cloud server (e.g., two first terminals, or one first terminal and one second terminal) can connect to the cloud server based on a first communication method; and communication services between the two terminals can be implemented based on the cloud server. Thus, communication services between at least two terminals belonging to the same cloud server can be realized.

[0113] Alternatively, a first terminal in the cloud server can connect to the cloud server via a first communication method and then communicate with a second terminal outside the server. This allows the first terminal to communicate with the second terminal even when the first communication method connection cannot be established.

[0114] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0115] The first communication method is used preferentially to communicate with the second terminal under the cloud server.

[0116] For example, there are at least two terminals in the cloud server, such as... Figure 2 Both the first terminal 1 (which can be considered the first terminal in the above embodiment) and the first terminal 2 (which can be considered the second terminal in the above embodiment) can establish a communication connection with the cloud server. Specifically, the first terminal 1 can establish a communication connection with the cloud server based on a first communication method; the first terminal 2 can establish a communication connection with the cloud server based on both the first and second communication methods. After the first terminal 1 establishes a communication connection with the cloud server, the cloud server can preferentially establish a communication connection with the first terminal 2 based on the first communication method and provide communication services, etc.

[0117] In the above example, if both the first terminal and the second terminal in the cloud server can communicate based on the first communication method, then the first terminal and the second terminal in the cloud server can also directly communicate based on the first communication method.

[0118] Thus, in this embodiment of the disclosure, if at least two terminals under the cloud server can both access the cloud server and both terminals can perform communication services based on the first communication method, then the two terminals can be preferentially allowed to communicate directly based on the first communication method, or the cloud server can be allowed to communicate based on the first communication method. In this way, it is not necessary to use the cloud server's communication module for communication using the second communication method, thereby reducing the costs incurred in using the second communication method for communication services.

[0119] In one embodiment, step S122 includes:

[0120] If the channel bandwidth occupied by the cloud server for communication services using the first communication method is greater than the predetermined bandwidth, then the second communication method is used to communicate with the second terminal under the cloud server.

[0121] For example, if the terminals in the cloud server include: first terminal 1, first terminal 2, first terminal 3, first terminal 4, and first terminal 5; wherein first terminal 1, first terminal 2, and first terminal 3 use a first communication method for communication services. If the channel bandwidth occupied by first terminal 1, first terminal 2, and first terminal 3 when communicating using the first communication method is greater than a predetermined bandwidth, then after first terminal 4 connects to the cloud server using the first communication method, the cloud server uses a second communication method to communicate with first terminal 5. In this embodiment, if the channel bandwidth occupied by first terminal 1, first terminal 2, and first terminal 3 when communicating using the first communication method is greater than the predetermined bandwidth, if first terminal 4 then uses the first communication method to communicate with first terminal 5, it may cause poor communication quality between first terminal 4 and first terminal 5 or between other terminals using the first communication method. In this case, first terminal 4 can use the second communication method based on the cloud server to communicate with first terminal 5.

[0122] In this embodiment, if the channel bandwidth occupied by the cloud server using the first communication method for communication services is relatively large, for example, greater than a predetermined bandwidth, then the cloud server can use the second communication method to communicate with other terminals under the cloud server. This reduces the occurrence of poor communication quality issues such as data transmission delays and low data transmission success rates between the first and second terminals caused by the cloud server still using the first communication method.

[0123] The following communication method is executed by the first terminal and is similar to the communication method executed by the cloud server described above. For technical details not disclosed in the embodiments of the communication method executed by the first terminal, please refer to the description of the communication method example executed by the cloud server, which will not be described in detail here.

[0124] like Figure 5 As shown, a communication method is provided, executed by a first terminal, including:

[0125] Step S21: If the first terminal cannot establish a communication connection through the second communication method, it connects to the cloud server based on the first communication method;

[0126] Step S22: Send a request message to the cloud server, wherein the request message is used to request communication services with the second terminal via a second communication method; wherein the second communication method is different from the first communication method.

[0127] Thus, in this embodiment of the disclosure, when the first terminal is unable to establish a communication connection with other terminals through the first communication method, it can establish a communication connection with the cloud server through the second communication method; thereby, it can establish a communication connection with other terminals and perform communication services based on the cloud server.

[0128] In some embodiments, sending a request message to the cloud server includes:

[0129] Send the request message carrying the identification code to the cloud server; wherein the request message is used to request the communication service of the second communication method of the second terminal corresponding to the identification code.

[0130] In some embodiments, the second terminal is the second terminal under the cloud server, or the second terminal is the second terminal that cannot communicate through the first communication method.

[0131] In some embodiments, the first terminal is unable to establish a communication connection via the second communication method, including one of the following:

[0133] The first terminal has the communication connection capability of the second communication method. The first terminal has the capability to establish a communication connection of the second communication method, but the signal strength of the first terminal communicating based on the second communication method is less than the strength threshold.
