Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, mobile terminal device, and medium for updating flow control data in mobile terminals. Background Technology

[0002] The IoT terminals in cellular mobile communication are diverse and numerous, with limited human-computer interaction. When mobile terminal application software developers handle connection failure exceptions inappropriately, the deployed mobile terminal may frequently initiate RRC connection establishment requests, leading to wireless network congestion and affecting the normal communication of other mobile terminals in the same cell. Related technologies propose a method for flow control of initial random access requests initiated by terminal applications. This method calculates the number of connection requests initiated by the application within a time window, discarding requests when the number exceeds a flow control threshold. These connection requests include: restarting the mobile terminal's communication module or chip, enabling full functionality, attaching to the network, and sending data. However, when the communication module or chip restarts, the flow control count in memory is lost, making it impossible to determine the duration between the mobile terminal's power-off and power-on, and also impossible to update the flow control count, resulting in relatively low accuracy of flow control. Summary of the Invention

[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a flowchart illustrating a mobile terminal flow control data update method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The mobile terminal flow control data update method of this embodiment is applied to a communication unit in a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal also includes memory and non-volatile storage connected to the communication unit. For example, the mobile terminal flow control data update method can be implemented through software programs configured on the communication unit to improve the flow control accuracy of the mobile terminal. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the communication unit can be a communication chip or a communication module including the communication chip; the non-volatile storage is Flash storage. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps S100-S130.

[0036] S100, Check if the reading conditions are met.

[0037] In this embodiment of the invention, if a full-function shutdown or soft reboot command is received, it indicates that the flow control count in the memory of the communication module or communication chip may be lost, and the reading condition is determined to be met. If the PSM (Power Saving Mode) state is entered, it indicates that the memory will be powered off and data will be lost. However, in order to avoid frequent write operations to non-volatile memory, the flow control count is not written to non-volatile memory at this time. This is because when the mobile terminal enters the PSM state, the mobile terminal application does not have a communication requirement in the following few hours, and the reading condition is determined not to be met.

[0038] S110. If the read condition is met, the flow control count read from the memory is written into the non-volatile storage, wherein the flow control count includes the absolute start time of the time window, the current remaining duration of the time window, and the number of RRC connection requests within the time window.

[0039] In this embodiment of the invention, if the read condition is met, i.e., if a full-function shutdown or soft reboot command is received, the flow control count read from the memory is written into the non-volatile storage. The flow control count includes the absolute start time of the time window, the current remaining duration of the time window, and the number of RRC connection requests within the time window. Specifically, as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in Figure 3 In the middle, a soft reboot is performed. Figure 2If, after performing a full-feature shutdown (AT+CFUN=0), the flow control count read from the memory is written to the non-volatile memory, and if a full-feature enable (AT+CFUN=1) is subsequently performed, it indicates that the data written to the non-volatile memory has not been used, and therefore there is no need to read the flow control count from the non-volatile memory. If, after performing a full-feature shutdown, any of the following is performed: a soft reboot, a hardware reboot, or a hardware power-on after a hardware power-off, it indicates that the memory has lost power, and the flow control count in the memory will be lost, requiring the flow control count to be read from the non-volatile memory.

[0040] S120. After startup, the flow control count is read from the non-volatile storage as the current flow control count in the memory.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, after the communication unit starts, it reads the flow control count from the non-volatile memory as the current flow control count in the memory. If the number of RRC connection requests within the time window is at its limit, it waits for the time window to end, and after the time window ends, it sets the flow control count to null and writes it back to the non-volatile memory. During the waiting period, each time hardware startup is detected, the remaining duration of the time window is reduced by a preset time, and each time the remaining duration of the time window is reduced by a preset value, the flow control count is written back to the non-volatile memory. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, if... Figure 4 As shown, the preset time is 30 seconds, and the preset value is 60 seconds. Specifically, to prevent hardware power failure or hardware startup from occurring again without performing a "full-function shutdown" or "soft reboot" during this waiting period, the remaining duration of the flow control time window in memory is reduced by 30 seconds each time the hardware startup occurs. To prevent hardware power failure or hardware startup from occurring again without performing a "full-function shutdown" or "soft reboot" during this waiting period, a new flow control count is written to non-volatile memory every time the current remaining duration of the flow control time window in memory decreases by 60 seconds. Understandably, in other embodiments, the preset time and the preset value can be determined according to actual conditions and are not specifically limited here.

[0042] S130. If an attached network is detected after startup, the memory and the flow control count in the non-volatile memory are updated based on the current absolute time, the relative duration since this startup, the total length of the time window, and the flow control count read from the non-volatile memory.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, the current absolute time, the relative duration since the start of this operation, and the total length of the time window are obtained, and the flow control count is read from the non-volatile storage; based on the current absolute time and the start absolute time of the time window, it is determined whether a preset condition is met; specifically, it is determined whether the current absolute time is a valid value and whether the start absolute time of the time window is empty. If the current absolute time is a valid value, it indicates that the communication chip or communication module has obtained the current absolute time; if the current absolute time is an invalid value, it indicates that the communication chip or communication module has not obtained the current absolute time, and the preset condition is not met. Figure 5 As shown, the flow control count in the non-volatile memory is deleted; if the absolute start time of the time window is empty, it indicates that the flow control count read from the non-volatile memory does not contain the absolute time, and the preset condition is not met. Figure 6 As shown, the flow control count in the non-volatile storage is deleted. If the current absolute time is a valid value and the start absolute time of the time window is not empty, it indicates that the preset condition is met. Then, the flow control count in the memory and the non-volatile storage is updated according to the known current absolute time, the relative duration since this startup, the total length of the time window, and the flow control count.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the absolute time of writing to non-volatile memory is calculated based on the absolute start time of the time window, the total length of the time window, and the current remaining duration of the time window. Specifically, the absolute time of writing to non-volatile memory = absolute start time of the time window + (total length of the time window - current remaining duration of the time window). It is then determined whether the relative duration since the current startup is greater than the difference between the current absolute time and the absolute time of writing to non-volatile memory. If the relative duration since the current startup is greater than the difference between the current absolute time and the absolute time of writing to non-volatile memory, it indicates that the communication module or communication chip has not restarted since startup, the flow control count in memory has not been lost, and no update is necessary. Therefore, the flow control count in memory remains unchanged, and the flow control count in non-volatile memory is updated. Specifically, if the time window in non-volatile memory has ended, the flow control count in non-volatile memory is deleted.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 8As shown, the startup time is obtained by calculating the difference between the current absolute time and the relative duration since the current startup, and the end time of the time window is obtained by calculating the sum of the start absolute time of the time window and the total length of the time window. If the end time of the time window is less than the startup time, i.e., startup time = current absolute time - relative duration since the current startup, and end time of the time window = start absolute time of the time window + total length of the time window; if the end time of the time window < startup time, it means that the time window has ended before the current startup, then the flow control count in the non-volatile storage is deleted, and it is determined whether the relative duration since the current startup is less than the current remaining duration of the time window in the non-volatile storage; if the relative duration since the current startup is less than the current remaining duration of the time window in the non-volatile storage, then the number of RRC connection requests within the time window in memory and the start absolute time of the time window are updated. Specifically, the number of RRC connection requests within the time window = number of RRC connection requests within the time window - number of requests in storage; the start absolute time of the time window in memory = startup time.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 As shown, the startup time is obtained by calculating the difference between the current absolute time and the relative duration since the current startup, and the end time of the time window is obtained by calculating the sum of the start absolute time of the time window and the total length of the time window. If the startup time is less than the end time of the time window and the end time of the time window is less than the current absolute time, that is, if startup time < end time of time window < current absolute time, it indicates that the flow control time window has ended after the communication chip or communication module has started but before the network attachment is successful. In this case, the flow control count in the non-volatile memory is deleted, and it is determined whether the difference between the current absolute time and the end time of the time window in the non-volatile memory is less than the total length of the time window. If the difference between the current absolute time and the end time of the time window in the non-volatile memory is less than the total length of the time window, the number of RRC connection requests in the time window in the memory is updated to the difference between the number of RRC connection requests in the time window in the memory and the number of RRC connection requests in the time window in the non-volatile memory, and the start absolute time of the time window in the memory is updated to the end time of the time window in the non-volatile memory. That is, the number of RRC connection requests within the time window in memory = the number of RRC connection requests within the time window in memory - the number of RRC connection requests within the time window in non-volatile storage; the absolute start time of the time window in memory = the end time of the time window in non-volatile storage.

[0047] Furthermore, such as Figure 10As shown, if the end time of the time window is greater than the current absolute time, it indicates that the flow control time window has not yet ended after the successful attachment to the network. Therefore, the flow control count in the non-volatile storage remains unchanged. The end time of the time window in memory is calculated based on the relative duration since the start of this operation, the current time, and the time of the previous round of writing data to the non-volatile storage. Specifically, the end time of the time window in memory = the end time of the time window in memory – [(current time - relative duration since the start of this operation) – the time of the previous round of writing data to the non-volatile storage]. The current remaining duration of the time window in memory is updated based on the end time of the time window.

[0048] In summary, once the communication module or chip is attached to the network and knows the current absolute time, the flow control counts in non-volatile storage and memory can be updated accordingly for different scenarios, thereby improving the accuracy of flow control.

[0052] The write detection unit is configured to wait for the time window to end if the number of RRC connection requests within the time window is in a limited state, and then write the flow control count to the non-volatile storage after the time window ends, setting the flow control count to a null value. During the waiting period, each time a hardware startup is detected, the remaining duration of the time window is reduced by a preset time, and the flow control count is written to the non-volatile storage whenever the remaining duration of the time window is reduced by a preset value.
