Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic devices, and more specifically, to a method and electronic device for reducing power consumption. Background Technology

[0002] During the interaction between electronic devices and network devices, the network devices can assign Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to the electronic devices and exchange data normally with them through these IP addresses.

[0003] However, in some cases, network devices may send junk data packets to the electronic device. After receiving the junk data packets, the electronic device processes them, which increases the power consumption of the electronic device. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a method and electronic device for reducing power consumption, with the aim of reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0005] In a first aspect, a method for reducing power consumption is provided, which can be applied to an electronic device. The method includes: the electronic device detecting a first number of junk data packets received within a first time period; when the electronic device determines that the first number satisfies a first relationship, disconnecting the network connection with a network device and sending a first network connection request to the network device; the electronic device receiving a first paging message sent by the network device in response to the first network connection request; and the electronic device re-establishing a network connection with the network device based on the first paging message.

[0006] In one embodiment of this application, the electronic device can detect the number of junk data packets received within a first time period. When the number meets a first relationship, the electronic device can disconnect from the network device, send a network connection request to the network device, and re-establish a network connection with the network device according to the paging message sent by the network device.

[0007] In this way, when the electronic device re-establishes a network connection with the network device, the network device will assign a new IP address to the electronic device. Therefore, when the network device sends junk data packets to the original IP address, the electronic device will not receive the junk data packets, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0008] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship, including: when the first quantity is greater than a first preset value, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship.

[0009] In one embodiment of this application, when the first quantity is greater than the first preset value, it means that the electronic device receives a large number of junk data packets within the first time period. Therefore, it can be determined that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship, so that the electronic device can re-register in order to reduce power consumption.

[0010] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship, including: when the ratio of the first quantity to the total number of data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period is greater than a second preset value, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship.

[0011] In one embodiment of this application, when the ratio of the first quantity to the total number of data packets received by the electronic device within the first duration is greater than a second preset value, it means that the electronic device receives a large number of junk data packets within the first duration, thereby enabling the electronic device to re-register in order to reduce power consumption.

[0012] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the decision to re-register can be determined by assessing the relationship between a first rate at which the electronic device receives junk data packets within a first time period and a preset rate. For example, when the first rate is greater than the preset rate, the electronic device disconnects from the network device and sends a network connection request to the network device.

[0013] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, after re-establishing a network connection with the network device, the Internet Protocol (IP) address used by the electronic device to communicate with the network device is different from the IP address used by the electronic device to communicate with the network device before the network connection was re-established.

[0014] In one embodiment of this application, after the electronic device and the network device re-establish a network connection, the network device assigns a new IP address to the electronic device. As a result, when the network device continues to send junk data packets to the old IP address, the electronic device cannot receive the junk data packets, thereby reducing the number of junk data packets received by the electronic device, i.e., reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0015] In conjunction with the first aspect, in some implementations of the first aspect, the method further includes: when the electronic device determines that the first quantity does not satisfy the first relationship, the electronic device continues to detect a second quantity of garbage data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period; when the electronic device determines that the second quantity is greater than a first preset value, it disconnects the network connection with the network device and sends a network connection request to the network device.

[0016] In this way, if the number of junk data packets received in the first time period does not meet the first relationship, the electronic device can continue to detect the second number of junk data packets received in the next first time period. When the second number is greater than a preset value, the electronic device can re-register, that is, disconnect the network connection with the network device and send a new network connection request to the network device in order to re-establish the network connection with the network device, thereby helping to reduce the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0017] Secondly, a method for reducing power consumption is provided, the method being applied in an electronic device, the method comprising:

[0018] The electronic device sends a third network connection request to the network device; the electronic device receives a second paging message from the network device in response to the third network connection request; the electronic device parses the second paging message, and when it determines that the second paging message is a preset paging message, the electronic device determines whether the electronic device is in a preset state; when it determines that the electronic device is in a preset state, the electronic device ignores the second paging message.

[0019] In this way, before establishing a network connection between the electronic device and the network device, the electronic device can parse the received paging message. When it is determined that the paging message is a preset paging message, it can determine whether the electronic device is in a preset state. When the electronic device is in a preset state, it can ignore the paging message, so that the electronic device does not establish a network connection with the network device. As a result, the electronic device does not receive junk data packets from the network device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0020] In conjunction with the second aspect, in some implementations of the second aspect, the second paging message is a packet-switched PS paging message.

[0021] Optionally, the second paging message may be a 5G paging message or a paging message in a future network.

[0022] In conjunction with the second aspect, in some implementations of the second aspect, the preset state includes one of the following states: the data service switch of the electronic device is off; the VoLTE switch of the electronic device is off; the Do Not Disturb switch of the electronic device is on; the electronic device is in an enterprise Wi-Fi connection state.

[0023] In one embodiment of this application, when the electronic device is in the aforementioned preset state, the paging message sent by the network device can be ignored, thereby not establishing a network connection with the network device, and thus reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0024] In conjunction with the second aspect, in some implementations of the second aspect, the method further includes: when it is determined that the second paging message is not a preset paging message, the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device based on the second paging message.

[0025] In one embodiment of this application, when it is determined that the second paging message is not a preset paging message, the electronic device can establish a network connection with the network device, thereby not affecting the normal communication between the electronic device and the network device.

[0026] In conjunction with the second aspect, in some implementations of the second aspect, the method further includes: when it is determined that the second paging message is a preset paging message, and the electronic device is not in a preset state, the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device based on the second paging message.

[0027] In one embodiment of this application, when the second paging is a paging message, but the electronic device is not in the aforementioned preset state, the electronic device can establish a network connection with the network device, thereby not affecting the normal communication between the electronic device and the network device.

The demodulator demodulates the received electromagnetic wave signal into a low-frequency baseband signal. The demodulator then transmits the demodulated low-frequency baseband signal to the baseband processor for processing.

This application embodiment uses the layered architecture Android system as an example to exemplify the software structure of electronic device 100.

[0095] Figure 2 This is a software structure block diagram of an electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of this application. The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, each with a clear role and function. Layers communicate with each other through software interfaces. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom: the application layer, the application framework layer, the Android runtime and system libraries, and the kernel layer. The application layer may include a series of application packages.

[0096] like Figure 2 As shown, the application package may include applications such as camera, gallery, calendar, call, map, navigation, WLAN, Bluetooth, music, video, and SMS.

[0097] The application framework layer provides application programming interfaces (APIs) and a programming framework for applications in the application layer. The application framework layer includes some predefined functions.

[0098] like Figure 2 As shown, the application framework layer may include a window manager, content provider, view system, phone manager, resource manager, notification manager, etc.

[0099] The window manager is used to manage windowed applications. It can retrieve screen size, determine the presence of a status bar, lock the screen, and capture screenshots, among other things.

[0100] Content providers store and retrieve data, making that data accessible to applications. This data may include videos, images, audio, made and received phone calls, browsing history and bookmarks, phone books, etc.

[0101] A view system includes visual controls, such as controls for displaying text and controls for displaying images. View systems can be used to build applications. A display interface can consist of one or more views. For example, a display interface including a text notification icon could include views for displaying text and views for displaying images.

[0102] The phone manager is used to provide communication functions for electronic device 100. For example, it manages call status (including connection and disconnection).

[0103] The file explorer provides applications with various resources, such as localized strings, icons, images, layout files, video files, and more.

[0104] The notification manager allows applications to display notifications in the status bar. These notifications can be used to deliver informational messages and can disappear automatically after a short pause, requiring no user interaction. For example, the notification manager can be used to notify users of completed downloads or message alerts. The notification manager can also display notifications as icons or scrolling text in the top status bar, such as notifications from background applications, or as dialog boxes on the screen. Examples include displaying text messages in the status bar, emitting sounds, vibrating electronic devices, and flashing indicator lights.

[0105] The Android runtime consists of core libraries and a virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for scheduling and managing the Android system.

[0106] The core library consists of two parts: one part is the functionalities that need to be called by the Java language, and the other part is the Android core library.

[0107] The application layer and application framework layer run in a virtual machine. The virtual machine executes the Java files of the application layer and application framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine is used to perform functions such as object lifecycle management, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, and garbage collection.

[0108] System libraries can include multiple functional modules. For example: surface manager, media libraries, 3D graphics processing libraries (e.g., OpenGL ES), 2D graphics engines (e.g., SGL), etc.

[0109] The Surface Manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provides the blending of 2D and 3D layers for multiple applications.

[0110] The media library supports playback and recording of various common audio and video formats, as well as still image files. It supports multiple audio and video encoding formats, such as MPEG4, H.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, and PNG.

[0111] The 3D graphics processing library is used to implement 3D graphics drawing, image rendering, compositing, and layer processing.

[0112] A 2D graphics engine is a graphics engine for 2D drawing.

[0113] The kernel layer is the layer between hardware and software. The kernel layer contains at least the display driver, camera driver, audio driver, and sensor driver.

[0114] Before introducing the technical solution of the method for reducing the power consumption of electronic devices according to the embodiments of this application, a brief introduction to some of the terms involved in this application will be given first.

[0115] Junk packets: The type of data packets received by the electronic device is consistent with the type of data included in the preset processing rule table; or, the type of data packets received by the electronic device is consistent with the type of data included in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or Internet Protocol (IP) protocol stack; or, the type of data packets received by the electronic device is consistent with the type of custom-processable data in the electronic device.

[0116] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the interaction process between an electronic device and a network device, as provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, the interaction process may include steps 310 to 350.

[0117] 310. Electronic devices send network connection requests to network devices.

[0118] For example, in response to a user turning on a data switch, an electronic device sends a network connection request to a network device.

[0119] 320. After receiving a network request, the network device establishes a network connection with the electronic device and assigns an IP address to the electronic device.

[0120] It should be understood that in this step, after receiving a network request from an electronic device, the network device can send a paging message to the electronic device. Upon receiving the paging message, the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device, allowing it to use the network normally. Once the network connection is established, the network device can assign an IP address to the electronic device. This IP address serves as the identifier for the electronic device, and the network device can use this IP address to exchange network data packets with the electronic device.

[0121] 330, The electronic device sends the first data packet to the network device.

[0122] For example, the first data packet is used to request certain data.

[0123] 340. After receiving the first data packet sent by the electronic device, the network device sends a second data packet to the electronic device.

[0124] For example, after receiving the first data packet sent by the electronic device, the network device sends the data it requests to the electronic device.

[0125] 350. Network devices send junk data packets to electronic devices.

[0126] In some cases, network devices may send junk data packets in addition to normal data packets to electronic devices. Processing these junk data packets after receiving them will increase the power consumption of the electronic devices.

[0127] Currently, electronic devices generally adopt a communication mode based on application processor (AP) and modem. When electronic devices exchange data with network devices, the modem in the electronic device demodulates the data packets transmitted from the network device to the electronic device and sends them to the AP. After processing the data packets, the AP sends the signals that need to be sent to the modem, which modulates them and sends them to the radio frequency transceiver, antenna, etc., so as to send the signals to the network devices.

[0128] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the internal data packet processing of an electronic device according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, the electronic device 400 may include at least an application processor AP410 and a modem 420.

[0129] During the communication between electronic device 400 and network device, modem 420 demodulates the data packets from network device and sends them to AP 410. AP 410 processes the data packets and then transmits the data to be sent to modem 420.

[0130] The AP410's transmission control protocol (TCP) or IP protocol stack transport layer contains the port number of the program running on the electronic device 400 and the IP address of the electronic device. For electronic devices connected to the network, the IP address is the identifier of the electronic device 400, and network devices can use this IP address to interact with the electronic device 400.

[0131] See Figure 4During the data interaction between electronic device 400 and network device, modem 420 and AP 410 both need to work. In some cases, electronic device 400 may continuously receive junk data packets from network device. At this time, modem 420 and AP 410 need to continuously process these junk data packets, thereby increasing the power consumption of electronic device 400.

[0132] To reduce the power consumption of electronic devices, a data processing rule table can be preset in the modem. When the type of data packet received by the modem is consistent with the data type included in the data processing rule table, or when the type of data packet received by the modem is consistent with the data type specified by the preset TCP / IP protocol stack, the modem processes the data packet without sending it to the AP, thereby reducing the power consumption of the AP and thus reducing the power consumption of the electronic devices.

[0133] The above technical solutions reduce the power consumption of the AP, but the modem still needs to continue to work, resulting in a relatively high power consumption of the electronic device.

[0134] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a method for reducing power consumption, which can reduce the power consumption of electronic devices.

[0135] The following will combine Figures 5-6 The power consumption reduction methods described in the embodiments of this application are explained in detail.

[0136] Figure 5 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for reducing power consumption provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 5 As shown, this method can be applied to electronic devices, and the method may include steps 510 to 560.

[0137] 510. The electronic device sends a second network connection request to the network device.

[0138] The second network connection request is used to request that the electronic device be connected to the network.

[0139] In one example, the electronic device is powered off, and in response to the user's power-on operation, the electronic device sends a second network connection request to the network device.

[0140] In another example, in response to a user turning on a data switch, the electronic device sends a second network connection request to the network device.

[0141] In another example, if the electronic device is in a state where an application is open, such as Huawei Video, then in response to the user clicking on a video, the electronic device sends a second network connection request to the network device.

[0142] 520, Electronic devices and network devices establish network connections.

[0143] After receiving the second network connection request, the network device can send a paging message to the electronic device. After receiving the paging message sent by the network device, the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device.

[0144] After a network device establishes a network connection with an electronic device, an IP address can be assigned to the electronic device, allowing the network device to interact with the electronic device through that IP address.

[0145] It should be understood that steps 510 to 520 are optional steps. In some embodiments, the technical solution may also start from step 530, that is, the electronic device is already in a network connection state.

[0146] 530, the electronic device detects the first number of junk data packets received within a first time period.

[0147] In one example, a spam packet detection device can be installed in an electronic device. For instance, by installing a spam packet detection device in a modem within an electronic device, the number of spam packets received by the electronic device over a period of time can be detected.

[0148] In another example, a function to detect the number of junk packets can be set up in an electronic device, for example, by placing the junk packet detection module into the modem of the electronic device.

[0149] It should be understood that the first duration can be preset, such as 5 minutes. The specific value of the first duration is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0150] 540, determine whether the first quantity is greater than the preset quantity.

[0151] In one possible implementation, if the first quantity is greater than the preset quantity, it indicates that the electronic device has received a large number of junk data packets within the first time period, and then step 550 can be executed.

[0152] In another possible implementation, if the first quantity is less than or equal to a preset quantity, it indicates that the electronic device has received a small number of junk data packets within the first duration, and the electronic device continues to detect the number of junk data packets received in the next first duration.

[0153] It should be understood that the preset quantity can be 10, 20, etc., and the specific value of the preset quantity is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0154] In other embodiments, the electronic device may also determine whether to send a first network connection request to the network device by judging the relationship between the ratio of the first quantity to the total number of data packets received by the electronic device in the first time period and a preset value.

[0155] For example, if the ratio of the first quantity to the total number of data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period is greater than a preset value, it means that the number of junk data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period is relatively large, and then step 550 can be executed.

[0156] In other embodiments, other metrics of the junk data packet can be used to determine whether to resend the first network connection request to the network device, such as the speed at which junk data packets are received.

[0157] 550, The electronic device sends a first network connection request to the network device.

[0158] When the first quantity is determined to be greater than the preset quantity, the electronic device sends a first network connection request to the network device. The first network connection request is used to request the re-establishment of a network connection with the network device.

[0159] For example, if it is determined that the first quantity is greater than the preset quantity, the modem in the electronic device is triggered to re-register with the network. When the modem re-registers with the network, the electronic device will send a first network connection request to the network device.

[0160] It should be understood that in step 550, before the electronic device sends the first network connection request to the network device, the electronic device will disconnect the previous network connection with the network device.

[0161] 560, the electronic device re-establishes a network connection with the network device.

[0162] After receiving the first network connection request, the network device can send a paging message to the electronic device. After receiving the paging message, the electronic device can re-establish a network connection with the network device.

[0163] When an electronic device re-establishes a network connection with a network device, the network device will reassign an IP address to the electronic device. The network device can then interact with the electronic device using this newly assigned IP address. When the network device continues to push junk data packets to the original IP address, the electronic device will not receive these junk data packets, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0164] In one embodiment of this application, after an electronic device establishes a network connection with a network device, it can detect the number of junk data packets received within a certain period of time. When the number of junk data packets exceeds a preset number, the electronic device can resend a network connection request to the network device and re-establish a network connection with the network. As a result, the network device can assign a new IP address to the electronic device. Thus, when the network device continues to push junk data packets to the original IP address, the electronic device will not receive junk data packets, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0165] It should be understood that after an electronic device is assigned a new IP address, although the electronic device will not receive junk data packets sent by the network device to the original IP address, the electronic device may still receive some junk data packets under the new IP address. Therefore, the electronic device can continue to detect the number of junk data packets received under the new IP address within a certain period of time and can continue the process described in steps 530-560 above.

[0166] The above text combined Figure 5 This paper introduces a technical solution that, after a network device and a terminal device establish a network connection, when the terminal device receives a large number of junk packets within a preset time period, the terminal device can obtain a new IP address by re-establishing a connection with the network device, thereby reducing the number of junk data packets received by the terminal device and thus reducing the power consumption of the terminal device.

[0167] The following will combine Figure 6 This application presents a technical solution in which the terminal device does not establish a network connection with the network device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the terminal device.

[0168] Figure 6 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating another method for reducing power consumption provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 6 As shown, the method may include steps 610 to 670.

[0169] 610. An electronic device sends a third network connection request to a network device.

[0170] The third network connection request is used to request that the electronic device be connected to the network.

[0171] 620, Electronic devices receive paging messages sent by network devices.

[0172] In this process, after receiving a third network connection request, the network device sends the paging message to the electronic device.

[0173] For example, the paging message may be a packet switching (PS) paging, or it may be a circuit switching (CS) paging, or it may be a paging message in 5G. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0174] 630, the electronic device parses the paging message.

[0175] The electronic device can parse the received paging message and identify the type of the paging message.

[0176] For example, if the electronic device parses the paging message and finds that the type of the paging message is a PS paging message, it means that when the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device, the network connection is a 4G communication network connection.

[0177] For example, if the electronic device parses the paging message and finds that the type of the paging message is a PC paging message, it means that when the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device, the network connection is a 2G or 3G communication network connection.

[0178] 640. The electronic device determines whether the paging message is a preset paging message.

[0179] Specifically, when the electronic device determines that the paging message is a preset paging message, step 650 can be executed; when the electronic device determines that the paging message is not a preset paging message, step 670 can be executed.

[0180] In one example, the default paging message is a PS paging message.

[0181] In another example, the default paging message is the CS paging message.

[0182] In another example, the preset paging message is a paging message in a 5G communication network.

[0183] 650, The electronic device determines whether it is in a preset state.

[0184] When the electronic device determines that it is in a preset state, step 660 can be executed; when the electronic device determines that it is not in a preset state, step 670 can be executed.

[0185] For example, the preset state can be a data service switch off state, a voiceover long-term evolution (VOLTE) switch off state, a do-not-disturb switch on state, or an enterprise Wi-Fi connection state.

[0186] It should be understood that when an electronic device is in a corporate Wi-Fi connection state, it means that the electronic device is connected to Wi-Fi, but the electronic device can only use the Wi-Fi to access fixed applications, websites, etc., that is, the electronic device can only access a portion of the network.

[0187] 660, the electronic device ignores the paging message.

[0188] In step 660, once the electronic device determines that it is in a preset state, it can ignore the paging message, that is, the electronic device will not establish a network connection with the network device. As a result, the electronic device will not receive junk data packets sent by the network device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0189] 670. Electronic devices establish network connections with network devices.

[0190] The electronic device can establish a 3G communication network connection, a 4G communication network connection, or a 5G communication network connection with a network device, etc., but this application embodiment does not limit this.

[0191] In one possible implementation, when the preset paging message is a PS paging message, if the electronic device determines that the received paging message is not a PS paging message, the electronic device can establish a 4G communication network connection with the network device.

[0192] In another possible implementation, when the preset paging message is a 5G paging message, if the electronic device determines that the received paging message is not a 5G paging message, the electronic device can establish a 5G communication network connection with the network device.

[0193] In one embodiment of this application, before an electronic device establishes a network connection with a network device, the electronic device can parse the received paging message and determine whether the paging message is a preset paging message. When the paging message is a preset paging message, it is determined whether the electronic device is in a preset state. When the electronic device is in a preset state, the received paging message can be ignored, that is, the electronic device does not establish a network connection with the network device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0194] Figure 7 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for reducing power consumption provided in an embodiment of this application. This method can be applied to electronic devices, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the method may include steps 710 to 740.

[0195] 710, the electronic device detects a first number of junk data packets received within a first time period.

[0196] It should be understood that the first duration can be a preset duration, such as 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc. This application does not limit the specific value of the first duration.

[0197] 720. When the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship, it disconnects the network connection with the network device and sends a first network connection request to the network device.

[0198] When the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship, it can trigger a re-registration operation, that is, it can disconnect the network connection with the network device and send a first network connection request to the network device.

[0199] It should be understood that before and after re-registration, the electronic device may be connected to different network devices or the same network device, and this application embodiment does not limit this.

[0200] In one possible implementation, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies a first relationship, including:

[0201] When the first quantity is greater than the first preset value, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship.

[0202] When the first quantity is greater than the first preset value, it means that the electronic device receives a large number of junk data packets within the first time period. Therefore, it can be determined that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship, so the electronic device can re-register in order to reduce power consumption.

[0203] It should be understood that the specific value of the first preset value is not limited in the embodiments of this application. For example, the first preset value can be 20, 30, etc.

[0204] In another possible implementation, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies a first relationship, including:

[0205] When the ratio of the first quantity to the total number of data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period is greater than a second preset value, the electronic device determines that the first quantity satisfies the first relationship.

[0206] When the ratio of the first quantity to the total number of data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period is greater than the second preset value, it means that the electronic device has received a large number of junk data packets within the first time period, so the electronic device can re-register in order to reduce power consumption.

[0207] It should be understood that the specific value of the second preset value is not limited in the embodiments of this application. For example, the second preset value can be 0.5, 0.4, etc.

[0208] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the decision to re-register can be determined by assessing the relationship between a first rate at which the electronic device receives junk data packets within a first time period and a preset rate. For example, when the first rate is greater than the preset rate, the electronic device disconnects from the network device and sends a network connection request to the network device.

[0209] It should be understood that other methods may be used to determine whether to perform a re-registration operation in the embodiments of this application, and the embodiments of this application are not limited thereto.

[0210] 730, the electronic device receives a first paging message sent by the network device in response to the first network connection request.

[0211] It should be understood that when an electronic device sends a first network connection request to a network device, the network device will send a first paging message based on the first network connection request.

[0212] 740, the electronic device re-establishes a network connection with the network device based on the first paging message.

[0213] Electronic devices can re-establish network connections with network devices based on the first paging message.

[0214] In one embodiment of this application, the electronic device can detect the number of junk data packets received within a first time period. When the number meets a first relationship, the electronic device can disconnect from the network device, send a network connection request to the network device, and re-establish a network connection with the network device according to the paging message sent by the network device.

[0215] In this way, when the electronic device re-establishes a network connection with the network device, the network device will assign a new IP address to the electronic device. Therefore, when the network device sends junk data packets to the original IP address, the electronic device will not receive the junk data packets, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0216] Optionally, after re-establishing a network connection with the network device, the Internet Protocol (IP) address used by the electronic device to communicate with the network device is different from the IP address used by the electronic device to communicate with the network device before the network connection was re-established.

[0217] In one embodiment of this application, after the electronic device and the network device re-establish a network connection, the network device assigns a new IP address to the electronic device. As a result, when the network device continues to send junk data packets to the old IP address, the electronic device cannot receive the junk data packets, thereby reducing the number of junk data packets received by the electronic device, i.e., reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0218] Optionally, when the electronic device determines that the first quantity does not satisfy the first relationship, the electronic device continues to detect a second quantity of garbage data packets received by the electronic device within the first time period;

[0219] When the electronic device determines that the second quantity is greater than the first preset value, it disconnects the network connection with the network device and sends a network connection request to the network device.

[0220] In this way, if the number of junk data packets received in the first time period does not meet the first relationship, the electronic device can continue to detect the second number of junk data packets received in the next first time period. When the second number is greater than a preset value, the electronic device can re-register, that is, disconnect the network connection with the network device and send a new network connection request to the network device in order to re-establish the network connection with the network device, thereby helping to reduce the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0221] Figure 8 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating another method for reducing power consumption provided in this application. This method can be applied to electronic devices, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the method may include steps 810 to 840.

[0222] 810, the electronic device sends a third network connection request to the network device.

[0223] Before establishing a network connection with a network device, an electronic device sends a network connection request to the network device to request access to the network.

[0224] For example, in response to a user turning on the data switch, the electronic device sends a network connection request to the network device. Alternatively, if the electronic device is powered off, it sends a network connection request to the network device in response to a user turning it on. Or, if the electronic device is running an application, such as Huawei Video, it sends a network connection request to the network device in response to a user clicking on a video.

[0225] 820, the electronic device receives a second paging message sent by the network device in response to the third network connection request.

[0226] After receiving a third network connection request from an electronic device, a network device can send a second paging message.

[0227] 830, the electronic device parses the second paging message, and when it is determined that the second paging message is a preset paging message, the electronic device determines whether the electronic device is in a preset state.

[0228] When an electronic device receives a second paging message from a network device, it can first parse the second paging message. If it determines that the second paging message is a preset paging message, it can then determine whether the electronic device is in a preset state.

[0229] It should be understood that the preset paging message can be a PS paging message, a PC paging message, a paging message in 5G or future communication networks, etc.

[0230] 840. When it is determined that the electronic device is in a preset state, the electronic device ignores the second paging message.

[0231] When an electronic device determines that it is in a preset state, it can ignore the second paging message, that is, it will not establish a network connection with the network device.

[0232] In this way, before establishing a network connection between the electronic device and the network device, the electronic device can parse the received paging message. When it is determined that the paging message is a preset paging message, it can determine whether the electronic device is in a preset state. When the electronic device is in a preset state, it can ignore the paging message, so that the electronic device does not establish a network connection with the network device. As a result, the electronic device does not receive junk data packets from the network device, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

[0233] Optionally, the preset state can be one of the following states:

[0234] The data service switch of the electronic device is in the off state;

[0235] The electronic device is in the LOLTE (Long Term Evolution Voice Bearer) switch off state.

[0236] The do-not-disturb switch of the electronic device is turned on;

[0237] The electronic device is connected to the enterprise Wi-Fi network.

[0238] It should be understood that when an electronic device is in a corporate Wi-Fi connection state, it means that the electronic device is connected to Wi-Fi, but the electronic device can only use the Wi-Fi to access fixed applications, websites, etc., that is, the electronic device can only access a portion of the network.

[0239] Optionally, the second paging message is a PS paging message.

[0240] Optionally, the method further includes: when it is determined that the second paging message is not a preset paging message, the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device based on the second paging message.

[0241] In one embodiment of this application, when it is determined that the second paging message is not a preset paging message, the electronic device can establish a network connection with the network device, thereby not affecting the normal communication between the electronic device and the network device.

[0242] Optionally, the method further includes: when it is determined that the second paging message is a preset paging message, and the electronic device is not in a preset state, the electronic device establishes a network connection with the network device based on the second paging message.

[0243] In one embodiment of this application, when the second paging is a paging message, but the electronic device is not in the aforementioned preset state, the electronic device can establish a network connection with the network device, thereby not affecting the normal communication between the electronic device and the network device.
