Detailed Implementation

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0026] With the development of science and technology, mobile terminals are also developing more and more rapidly, allowing users to interact with information through these terminals.

[0027] Currently, in mobile terminals equipped with dual SIM cards, a paging sharing function is integrated to save power. When the conditions for paging sharing are triggered, the primary SIM card receives all paging requests, while the secondary SIM card reselects to the same cell and frequency as the primary SIM card. In this scenario, if the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is poor, the secondary SIM card switching from its current cell to the cell with poorer communication quality will affect the user's communication experience.

[0028] In some embodiments of this application, the mobile terminal is equipped with a primary SIM card and a secondary SIM card. The mobile terminal has a paging sharing function and detects whether the secondary SIM card of the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function. The primary SIM card and the secondary SIM card support 5G communication. If the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is determined. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located is switched to the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located. This avoids the communication quality of the secondary SIM card being affected when the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is poor. This reduces power consumption while ensuring the communication quality of the mobile terminal, reduces the user's perception of network communication quality, and improves the user's communication experience.

[0029] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a dual-SIM network switching method provided as an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes: S101: Detect whether the secondary card of the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, wherein the primary card and the secondary card support 5G communication; S102: When the secondary card meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located; S103: Determine whether the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions. If yes, proceed to step S104; otherwise, proceed to step S105. S104: Switch the cell currently located by the secondary SIM card to the cell currently located by the primary SIM card; S105: Keep the cell where the secondary card is currently located.

[0031] In this embodiment, the executing entity of the above-mentioned dual-SIM network switching method is a mobile terminal, which can install two user identification cards, namely a primary card and a secondary card. The mobile terminal includes, but is not limited to, wearable devices, handheld devices, personal computers, tablets, in-vehicle devices, smartphones, computing devices, or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem. In different networks, the terminal can be called by different names, such as: user equipment, access terminal, user unit, user station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, remote terminal, mobile device, user terminal, terminal, wireless communication device, user agent or user device, cellular phone, cordless phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), 5th generation mobile communication technology (5G) network, 4th generation mobile communication technology (4G) network, 3rd generation mobile communication technology (3G) network, or terminals in future evolved networks, etc.

[0032] It should be noted that TA (Tracking Area) is a new concept established by the LTE system for the location management of mobile terminals. When a mobile terminal is in an idle state, the core network can know the tracking area where the UE is located. At the same time, when an idle mobile terminal needs to be paged, paging must be performed in all cells of the tracking area registered by the mobile terminal.

[0033] Paging sharing is a feature that enables the primary SIM card to switch to the primary SIM card's cell when the primary and secondary SIM cards are registered in the same tracking area and the secondary SIM card is in an idle state. This allows the primary SIM card to receive paging messages, thereby saving power and reducing energy consumption in the mobile terminal.

[0034] In this embodiment, the primary and secondary SIM cards can connect to different operator networks. This embodiment does not limit the 5G communication network standard of the primary and secondary SIM cards; they can be NSA or SA.

[0035] A frequency point refers to a specific absolute frequency value, generally the center frequency of the modulated signal. A frequency point is a number assigned to a fixed frequency. A frequency band is the range between one frequency point and another. For example, the uplink operating frequency band for GSM is 890-915MHz. Similarly, the uplink frequency for ESM is 880-915MHz, and the downlink frequency is 925-960MHz. Excluding two 100kHz guard bands, the uplink and downlink bandwidth is 34.8MHz, divided into 174 carriers. The center frequency of each carrier is a frequency point.

[0036] A cell, also known as a cellular cell, refers to the area covered by a base station or a portion of the base station's sector antenna in a cellular mobile communication system, within which mobile stations can reliably communicate with the base station via wireless channels.

[0037] In this embodiment, the mobile terminal detects whether the secondary SIM card installed on it meets the conditions for enabling paging sharing. If the secondary SIM card meets the conditions, the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is determined. If the secondary SIM card meets the conditions for enabling paging sharing, the paging sharing function is not enabled. After the mobile terminal enables paging sharing, if the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located is switched to the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located; if the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located does not meet the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located remains unchanged. This avoids the communication quality of the secondary SIM card being affected when the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is poor. This reduces power consumption while ensuring the communication quality of the mobile terminal, reduces the user's perception of network communication quality, and improves the user's communication experience.

[0038] In the above embodiments, enabling the paging sharing function on the secondary SIM card includes the following conditions: the primary SIM card is detected to have its 5G network turned off; the primary and secondary SIM cards are detected to be registered in the same tracking area; and the secondary SIM card's communication state is detected to be idle. All three conditions must be met simultaneously; none can be omitted. It should be noted that after a mobile terminal completes its camping in a certain cell, it enters an idle state, i.e., the IDIE state.

[0039] After the mobile terminal detects that the secondary SIM card meets the conditions for enabling paging sharing, it determines the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located. The mobile terminal determines the communication quality of the cell based on the network parameters of the cell and / or the communication behavior of the primary SIM card. Determining the communication quality of the cell includes, but is not limited to, the following methods: Method 1: Determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located based on the network parameters of the cell.

[0040] Method 2: Determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located based on the primary card's communication behavior.

[0041] Method 3 determines the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located based on the network parameters and communication behavior of the primary SIM card.

[0042] In the above-mentioned determination method one, it is determined whether the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than a set strength threshold and whether the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than or equal to the set strength threshold and whether the SNR of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than or equal to the SNR threshold, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the first communication quality; if at least one of the following is true: the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than the set strength threshold and the SNR of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than the SNR threshold, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the second communication quality; wherein, the first communication quality is higher than the second communication quality. The first communication quality is good communication quality, and the second communication quality is poor communication quality. It should be noted that either the signal strength or the SNR of the cell where the primary card is currently located can be used to determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located.

[0043] For example, if the signal strength of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is four bars, the signal strength of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is greater than the set three-bar threshold, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is greater than the signal-to-noise ratio threshold of 100dB, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is determined to be good.

[0044] In the second determination method described above, the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary SIM card is counted. If the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary SIM card is less than a set threshold, the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is the first communication quality. If the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary SIM card is greater than or equal to the set threshold, the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is the second communication quality. The first communication quality is considered good communication quality, and the second communication quality is considered poor communication quality.

[0045] In this second determination method, abnormal communication behaviors include, but are not limited to, the following: redirection failure, TAU failure, IMS registration failure, and abnormal signal fluctuations.

[0046] For example, if the primary card fails to redirect twice and fails to use TAU once within one minute, the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary card is three, which is more than the set threshold of two. Therefore, the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the second-best communication quality, i.e., poor communication quality.

[0047] In the aforementioned determination method three, it is determined whether the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than a set strength threshold, whether the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than a set SNR threshold, and whether the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary card is greater than or equal to a set number threshold. If the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than or equal to the set strength threshold, the SNR of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than or equal to the set SNR threshold, and the number of abnormal communication behaviors is less than the set number threshold, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the first communication quality. If at least one of the following conditions is met: the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than the set strength threshold, the SNR of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than the SNR threshold, and the number of abnormal communication behaviors is greater than or equal to the set number threshold, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the second communication quality. The first communication quality is higher than the second communication quality. The first communication quality represents good communication quality, and the second communication quality represents poor communication quality.

[0048] For example, if the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is four bars, the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than the set three-bar threshold, the signal-to-noise ratio of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than the signal-to-noise ratio threshold of 100dB, and the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary card is 1, which is less than the set number threshold of 2, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the first communication quality, that is, good communication quality.

[0049] For example, if the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is four bars, the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is greater than the set three-bar threshold, and the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary card is 3, which is greater than the set threshold of 2, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the second-best communication quality, that is, poor communication quality.

[0050] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not limit the setting of intensity threshold, signal-to-noise ratio threshold and setting of number threshold, and the setting of intensity threshold, signal-to-noise ratio threshold and setting of number threshold can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0051] In the above embodiments, if the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card of the mobile terminal is located is a first communication quality, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets a preset communication quality condition. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is a second communication quality, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located does not meet the preset communication quality condition. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality condition, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located is switched to the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located; if the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located does not meet the preset communication quality condition, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located remains unchanged.

[0052] For example, if the communication quality of the cell where the mobile terminal's primary SIM card is located is good, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions. If the communication quality of the cell where the mobile terminal's primary SIM card is located is poor, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located does not meet the preset communication quality conditions.

[0053] After the mobile terminal detects that the primary SIM card has enabled 5G communication, the mobile terminal disables the paging sharing function, the primary SIM card registers to the 5G cell, and the secondary SIM card switches to the original cell.

[0054] It should be noted that this application does not limit the preset communication quality conditions, and the communication quality conditions can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0055] The following section explains the dual-SIM network switching method of this application in conjunction with application scenarios.

[0056] 1. Insert the primary and secondary SIM cards into the mobile terminal. Both the primary and secondary SIM cards support 5G communication. 2. The primary SIM card was found to have disabled the 5G network; 3. The primary and secondary cards were detected to be registered in the same tracking area; 4. The secondary SIM card was detected to be in an idle state. 5. If the secondary card meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, then enable the paging sharing function. 6. Determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located; 7. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located will be switched to the cell and frequency point where the primary SIM card is currently located. 8. It was detected that the primary SIM card was turned off and the 5G network was enabled. The mobile terminal turned off the paging sharing function, the primary SIM card was registered to the 5G cell, and the secondary SIM card was switched to the original cell.

[0057] In conjunction with the descriptions in the above embodiments, Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating another dual-SIM network switching method provided as an exemplary embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes: S201: Detected that the primary card has turned off the 5G network; S202: Primary and secondary cards were detected to be registered in the same tracking area; S203: The communication state of the secondary card is detected to be idle; S204: Mobile terminal enables paging sharing function; S205: Determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located; if the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, then execute step S206; if the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located does not meet the preset communication quality conditions, then execute step S207. S206: Switch the cell currently located by the secondary SIM card to the cell currently located by the primary SIM card; S207: Keep the cell where the secondary card is currently located.

The mobile terminal includes, but is not limited to, wearable devices, handheld devices, personal computers, tablets, in-vehicle devices, smartphones, computing devices, or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem. In different networks, the terminal can be called by different names, such as: user equipment, access terminal, user unit, user station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, remote terminal, mobile device, user terminal, terminal, wireless communication device, user agent or user device, cellular phone, cordless phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), 5th generation mobile communication technology (5G) network, 4th generation mobile communication technology (4G) network, 3rd generation mobile communication technology (3G) network, or terminals in future evolved networks, etc.

The mobile terminal has a paging sharing function and detects whether the secondary SIM card of the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function. The primary SIM card and the secondary SIM card support 5G communication. If the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is determined. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located is switched to the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located. This avoids the communication quality of the secondary SIM card being affected when the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is poor. This reduces power consumption while ensuring the communication quality of the mobile terminal, reduces the user's perception of network communication quality, and improves the user's communication experience.

[0062] Among them, the detection module 31 is used to detect whether the secondary card of the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, wherein the primary card and the secondary card support 5G communication; The determination module 32 is used to determine the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located when the secondary card meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary card is currently located is switched to the cell where the primary card is currently located.

If at least one of the following conditions is met: the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than a set strength threshold and the signal-to-noise ratio of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than a signal-to-noise ratio threshold, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the second communication quality.

[0075] Alternatively, processor 402 can also be used for: If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located does not meet the preset communication quality conditions, then the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located will remain unchanged.

[0076] Optionally, enabling paging sharing for the secondary SIM card includes the following conditions: The primary SIM card was detected to have disabled 5G network.

If at least one of the following conditions is met: the signal strength of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than a set strength threshold and the signal-to-noise ratio of the cell where the primary card is currently located is less than a signal-to-noise ratio threshold, then the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the second communication quality. The first communication quality is higher than the second communication quality.

[0079] Optionally, when determining the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located based on the primary card's communication behavior, the processor 402 is used to: Count the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary card; If the number of abnormal communication behaviors of the primary card is less than the set threshold, the communication quality of the cell where the primary card is currently located is the first communication quality.

[0080] Optionally, abnormal communication behavior includes at least one of the following: redirection failure, TAU failure, IMS registration failure, and abnormal signal fluctuation.

The device containing the communication component can access wireless networks based on communication standards, such as WiFi, 2G, 3G, 4G / LTE, 5G, or combinations thereof. In one exemplary embodiment, the communication component receives broadcast signals or broadcast-related information from an external broadcast management system via a broadcast channel. In one exemplary embodiment, the communication component also includes a Near Field Communication (NFC) module to facilitate short-range communication. For example, the NFC module may be implemented based on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Infrared Data Association (IrDA) technology, Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology, Bluetooth (BT) technology, and other technologies.

[0084] The above Figure 4The power supply component provides power to the various components of the device in which it resides. The power supply component may include a power management system, one or more power supplies, and other components associated with generating, managing, and distributing power to the device in which it resides.

[0087] An audio component may be configured to output and / or input audio signals. For example, the audio component includes a microphone (MIC) configured to receive external audio signals when the device containing the audio component is in an operating mode, such as call mode, recording mode, or voice recognition mode.

In some embodiments, the audio component also includes a speaker for outputting audio signals.

[0088] In the embodiments of the apparatus, device, storage medium, and computer program products described above in this application, the mobile terminal is equipped with a primary SIM card and a secondary SIM card. The mobile terminal has a paging sharing function and detects whether the secondary SIM card of the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function. The primary SIM card and the secondary SIM card support 5G communication. If the mobile terminal meets the conditions for enabling the paging sharing function, the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located is determined. If the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located meets the preset communication quality conditions, the cell where the secondary SIM card is currently located is switched to the cell where the primary SIM card is currently located. This avoids the communication quality of the secondary SIM card being affected when the communication quality of the cell where the primary SIM card is located is poor. This reduces power consumption while ensuring the communication quality of the mobile terminal, reduces the user's perception of network communication quality, and improves the user's communication experience.
