Description

Technical Field

[0001] The technical solution disclosed herein relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a terminal control method, device, storage medium and electronic device. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the terminal supports SIM cards to communicate in different network standards, for example, the SIM card is set to the 5G network standard, or is set to the 4G (or 3G, 2G, etc.) network standard.

[0003] Normally, when users feel lag when performing services through the terminal (such as playing games or watching videos), they usually switch the network standard of the SIM card, such as switching 5G to 4G, or switching 4G to 5G, to improve the smoothness of the service.

[0004] However, the network standard after switching may not guarantee smooth service and may make the service more laggy. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a terminal control method, device, storage medium and electronic device, which are helpful to solve the problem of service freeze after the SIM card switches the network standard.

[0006] According to a first aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a terminal control method is provided, the method comprising:

[0007] In response to a signal quality parameter of a first subscriber identity module SIM card on the multi-card terminal satisfying a switching condition for switching a network standard, determining a target network standard to which the first SIM card is to be switched;

[0008] In response to a second SIM card on the multi-card terminal being in the target network standard, acquiring a signal quality parameter of the second SIM card;

[0009] In response to the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card meeting a preset signal condition, the first SIM card is switched to the target network standard.

[0010] According to a second aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a terminal control device is provided, the device comprising:

[0011] a determination module, configured to determine a target network standard to be switched to by the first subscriber identity module SIM card on the multi-card terminal in response to a signal quality parameter of the first subscriber identity module SIM card satisfying a switching condition for switching the network standard;

[0012] an acquisition module, configured to acquire a signal quality parameter of the second SIM card in response to the second SIM card on the multi-card terminal being in the target network standard;

[0013] The first switching module is configured to switch the first SIM card to the target network standard in response to the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card meeting a preset signal condition.

[0014] According to a third aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided an electronic device, including:

[0015] processor;

[0016] a memory for storing processor-executable instructions;

[0017] Wherein, the processor is configured to implement the steps of any terminal control method described in the first aspect by running the executable instructions.

[0018] According to a fourth aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a non-temporary computer-readable storage medium is provided, on which a computer program is stored, and when the program is executed by a processor, the steps of the terminal control method described in any one of the first aspects are implemented.

[0019] The technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure may have the following beneficial effects:

[0020] When the signal condition of the first SIM card of the multi-card terminal meets the switching condition, it is considered that the first SIM card currently needs to switch the network standard. At this time, the network standard of the first SIM card is not switched first, but the signal condition of the second SIM card is obtained. Since the network standard of the second SIM card is different from that of the first SIM card, if the signal condition of the second SIM card meets the preset signal condition, it is considered that the network standard of the first SIM card can be switched to the same network standard as that of the second SIM card.

[0021] Through the above method, when the first SIM card needs to switch the network standard, it is possible to avoid blindly switching the first SIM card to another network standard without knowing whether the signal of another network standard is good, resulting in signal problems such as freeze and delay in the signal condition after the switch.

[0022] It is to be understood that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the present disclosure. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] A multi-card terminal is a terminal that supports running multiple SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) cards. Common electronic devices include mobile phones, tablets, smart watches, etc.

[0032] Network standards refer to a technical specification in mobile communication systems that defines the communication methods and protocols between wireless communication devices and infrastructure. Different network standards use different frequency bands, modulation methods, transmission rates and other parameters to achieve the goal of wireless communication. Common network standards include 2G (second generation mobile communication), 3G (third generation mobile communication), 4G (fourth generation mobile communication) and 5G (fifth generation mobile communication).

[0033] The SIM card in the multi-card terminal usually communicates under a preset network standard. For example, when the multi-card terminal supports 4G and 5G, the SIM card usually communicates according to the preset network standard (such as 5G).

[0034] When the user is using this SIM card to perform services, if there are poor signal quality, signal delay, or freezes, it indicates that this SIM card has communication problems under the current network standard (5G) that affect the user's use. At this time, in order to improve the current communication situation, the multi-card terminal will switch the network standard of this SIM card (for example, switch to 4G), so as to avoid the SIM card always being in a poor 5G environment and affecting the services being performed by the SIM card.

[0035] However, the multi-card terminal is unable to determine whether there are certain communication problems (such as signal delay, poor signal quality, lag, etc.) with network standards other than 5G (such as 4G). This will cause the SIM card to still have certain communication problems after switching the network standard, thereby affecting the services being executed by the SIM card.

[0036] Based on the above problems, the present disclosure proposes a terminal control method. When it is determined that the signal quality parameters of the first SIM card on the multi-card terminal meet the switching conditions for switching the network standard, it is considered that the first SIM card cannot meet the service requirements under the current network standard (for example, there will be problems such as signal delay, service freeze, and poor signal quality).

[0037] In this case, consider switching the first SIM card to another network standard (for example, the target network standard supported by the multi-card terminal). In order to prevent the first SIM card from still failing to meet the service requirements after switching to the target network standard, the signal quality parameters of the second SIM card in the target network standard can be obtained. If the signal quality parameters of the second SIM card meet the preset signal conditions, it is considered that the service requirements can be met after switching the network standard of the first SIM card to the target network standard.

[0038] The following is a detailed introduction:

[0039] Figure 1 is an application scenario diagram of a terminal control method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, such as Figure 1As shown, the multi-card terminal 101 allows multiple SIM cards to be placed (SIM card 102, SIM card 103, and more SIM cards can be provided).

[0040] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a terminal control method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0041] Step 201: In response to a signal quality parameter of a first subscriber identity module SIM card on a multi-card terminal satisfying a switching condition for switching a network standard, determining a target network standard to which the first SIM card is to be switched.

[0042] Signal quality parameters are used to describe the quality of signals received and sent by the multi-card terminal. In the present disclosure, they include but are not limited to the following parameters: signal strength, signal-to-noise ratio, bit error rate, signal delay, packet loss rate, etc.

[0043] The first SIM card is any SIM card on a multi-card terminal. In an illustrative manner, the first SIM card can be determined in the following manner: the primary card preset in the multi-card terminal is used as the first SIM card, or the SIM card used to execute a designated service (or executing a designated service) is used as the first SIM card. The designated service can be any service or a service of interest pre-specified by the user. For example, the designated service can be a call, an online meeting, a game, etc.

[0044] The switching condition is preset, and the corresponding switching condition can be set according to the user's business needs. For example, when the user has high requirements for signal quality, the switching condition can be set as one or more signal quality parameters are less than a specific threshold (the specific value is not limited and can be determined according to the user's needs). If the signal quality parameter of the first SIM card meets the requirements in the switching condition (that is, less than the specific threshold), it is considered that the signal quality of the first SIM card under the current network standard is relatively poor and needs to be switched to other network standards; conversely, if the signal quality parameter of the first SIM card does not meet the switching condition, it is considered that the signal quality of the first SIM card under the current network standard is relatively good and does not need to be switched to other network standards.

[0045] Indicatively, the switching conditions include any of the following: a signal quality parameter is less than or equal to a preset low quality threshold (for example, a signal strength is less than -150dbm, or -110dbm or -115dbm, a signal-to-noise ratio is less than or equal to 2, etc.); a signal delay is greater than or equal to a preset delay threshold (for example, a signal delay is greater than or equal to 300ms).

[0046] The target network standard is different from the current network standard of the first SIM card and is a network standard supported by the multi-card terminal. For example, if the current network standard of the first SIM card is 4G, and the multi-card terminal supports 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G, the target network standard can be any one of 2G, 3G and 5G.

[0047] Indicatively, since SIM cards have different data transmission speeds and different delays between various network standards. Generally speaking, the order from high to low according to data transmission speed (or delay, or comprehensive order) is 5G>4G>3G>2G. In this order, when a multi-card terminal supports multiple network standards, the target network standard is first switched to the network standard with the highest order as the target network standard. That is, assuming that the current network standard of the first SIM card is 5G, the target network standard is set to 4G by default; assuming that the current network standard of the first SIM card is 4G, the target network standard is set to 5G by default.

[0048] Step 202: in response to the second SIM card on the multi-card terminal being in the target network standard, obtaining a signal quality parameter of the second SIM card.

[0049] When the first SIM card meets the switching condition, it is considered that the first SIM card needs to be switched to the target network standard. However, considering that the signal quality under the target network standard may not meet the requirements, in order not to blindly switch the network standard of the first SIM card to the target network standard, the present disclosure first obtains the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card, and then detects the communication status of the SIM card under the target network standard through the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card.

[0050] The second SIM card is one or more SIM cards in a multi-card terminal except the first SIM card. For example, when the multi-card terminal is provided with three SIM cards: SIM1, SIM2, and SIM3, if the user is executing a designated service through SIM1 (or SIM1 is the designated first SIM card), then SIM1 is the first SIM card. At this time, SIM2 and SIM3 are the second SIM cards.

[0051] At least one of the second SIM cards is in the target network standard. For example, assuming that the target network standard is any one of 2G, 3G, and 5G, and the current network standard of the first SIM card (SIM1) is 5G, if the network standard of SIM2 in the second SIM card is 4G, and the network standard of SIM3 in the second SIM card is 5G, then the signal quality parameters of SIM3 in the 5G network standard will not be obtained (SIM3 is not in the target network standard at this time), but the signal quality parameters of SIM2 in the target network standard (4G) will be obtained.

[0052] Step 203: In response to the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card meeting a preset signal condition, the first SIM card is switched to the target network standard.

[0053] The preset signal condition is set according to the needs of the user. For example, it can be set that when it is determined that the signal quality of the second SIM card is better, the network standard of the first SIM card can be switched to the target network standard.

[0054] Illustratively, the preset signal condition may be set as: a signal quality parameter is higher than a preset high quality threshold, for example, the signal strength is set higher than -100dbm (eg, -80dbm), the signal-to-noise ratio is greater than 10, and the like.

[0055] Through the above method, after determining that the second SIM card is in the target network standard and the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card meets the preset signal condition, the network standard of the first SIM card is switched to the target network standard. Since the signal quality of the second SIM card in the target network standard is relatively good, it means that in the location and environment of the multi-card terminal, the signal quality of other SIM cards in this target network standard is usually also relatively good, avoiding the problem of poor signal quality after switching to the target network standard due to blindly switching the network standard of the SIM card.

[0056] It should be noted that switching the network standard of the first SIM card to the target network standard includes: upgrading the network standard of the first SIM card (for example, from 4G to 5G), or downgrading the network standard of the first SIM card (for example, from 5G to 4G).

[0057] Furthermore, after performing one switch, you can perform a second switch as shown below:

[0058] The current network standard of the first SIM card is 5G, and the target network standard is 4G; when the signal quality parameter of the first SIM card meets the switching condition, and the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card under the target network standard of 4G meets the preset signal condition, the network standard of the first SIM card is switched to 4G.

[0059] At this time, the current network standard of the first SIM card is 4G, and the target network standard is different from 4G. For example, the target network standard can be reset to 5G. At this time, steps 201 to 203 can be re-executed. For example, when the signal quality parameters of the first SIM card in the 4G network standard meet the switching conditions, and the signal quality parameters of the second SIM card in 5G (target network standard) meet the preset signal conditions, the network standard of the first SIM card is switched to 5G. Through the above method, the first SIM card can always be in a state of good signal quality.

[0060] Optionally, taking the case where two SIM cards (a first SIM card and a second SIM card) are placed in a multi-card terminal as an example, the following two communication modes of the multi-card terminal are introduced:

[0061] DSDS: (Dual SIM Dual Standby), DSDS represents a dual-card technology, which can also be called dual-card single-pass technology, that is, the terminal supports the use of two SIM cards at the same time, and the two SIM cards share a frequency band for communication, so only one card can be active.

[0062] DSDA: (Dual SIM Dual Active) DSDA also stands for dual SIM technology, but unlike DSDS, DSDA allocates independent frequency bands for the two SIM cards, and the two SIM cards are active at the same time, which means that users can use two phone numbers for calls at the same time without having to manually switch SIM cards when answering calls.

[0063] Before executing step 202, in response to the second SIM card on the multi-card terminal being in the target network standard, obtaining the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card, the method further includes the following steps:

[0064] When the first SIM card and the second SIM card share a frequency band, in response to the first SIM card starting to execute a designated service, the second SIM card is set to switch to the target network standard.

[0065] When the communication mode of the multi-card terminal is DSDS, the first SIM card and the second SIM card will share a frequency band, and the second SIM card will seize the radio frequency resources (occupy the frequency band) of the first SIM card.

[0066] In the present disclosure, when the network standards of the first SIM card and the second SIM card are the same, the network standard of the second SIM card needs to be switched to the target network standard before the signal quality parameters of the second SIM card under the target network standard can be obtained. However, when the first SIM card is executing a designated service, if the frequency band is allocated to the second SIM card, the designated service being executed by the first SIM card will be greatly affected (e.g., service interruption), which will affect the user experience.

[0067] In order to solve this problem, the present invention immediately switches to the target network standard when the first SIM card just starts to execute the designated service, thereby avoiding switching the network standard of the second SIM card during the process of the first SIM card executing the designated service, which affects the designated service being executed by the first SIM card.

[0068] Optionally, before executing step 202, in response to the second SIM card on the multi-card terminal being in the target network standard, obtaining the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card, the method further includes the following steps:

[0069] When the first SIM card and the second SIM card use independent frequency bands respectively, during the designated service of the first SIM card, in response to determining that the signal condition of the first SIM card meets the switching condition, the second SIM card is set to switch to the target network standard.

[0070] When the communication mode of the multi-card terminal is DSDA, the first SIM card and the second SIM card each use independent frequency bands for communication, and switching the network standard of any SIM card will not affect the communication of other SIM cards. Therefore, even if the network standards of the second SIM card and the first SIM card are the same, there is no need to switch the network standard of the second SIM card to the target network standard in advance. The network standard can be switched when it is determined that the signal condition of the first SIM card meets the switching condition. In this way, when the first SIM card does not meet the switching condition, there is no need to additionally switch the network standard of the second SIM card.

[0071] Optionally, the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same communications operator; or, when the network standards of the first SIM card and the second SIM card are the same, the probability of connecting to the same frequency band, the same frequency point and the same cell is greater than or equal to a specified probability threshold.

[0072] Normally, the signal quality after the first SIM card's network standard is switched to the target network standard is similar to the signal quality of the second SIM card in the target network standard. However, considering that when the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to different communication operators, the frequency band of the first SIM card after switching to the target network standard may be different from the frequency band (cell, frequency point) of the second SIM card in the target network standard. Therefore, the signal quality parameters of the second SIM card in the target network standard are not completely equal to the signal quality parameters of the first SIM card in the target network standard, and the following problems may occur:

[0073] The signal quality of the second SIM card under the target network standard is relatively good, but the signal quality of the first SIM card switched to the target network standard still has certain problems.

[0074] In order to further solve this problem, it is required that the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator. Even if the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same communication operator, the first SIM card and the second SIM card may be in different frequencies, frequency bands and cells when they are in the same network standard. This is because:

[0075] In the same area and time, multiple users may use the mobile communication network at the same time. In order to avoid signal interference and optimize network resource utilization, operators will schedule and allocate signals to different users. This means that even if the primary and secondary cards of the mobile phone belong to the same communication operator, they may be scheduled to different frequencies, frequency bands and cells. Therefore, regardless of whether the first SIM card and the second SIM card belong to the same operator, it can be set that when the network standards of the first SIM card and the second SIM card are the same, the probability of connecting to the same frequency band, the same frequency point and the same cell is greater than or equal to the specified probability threshold (for example, 100%, 90%, or other arbitrarily set values).

[0076] Optionally, after executing step 202 to obtain the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card, the method further includes the following steps:

[0077] When the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card does not meet the preset signal condition, the network standard of the first SIM card is still set to be different from the network standard of the second SIM card.

[0078] If the signal quality parameter of the second SIM card does not meet the preset signal condition, it means that even if the network standard of the first SIM card is switched to the target network standard, the signal quality of the first SIM card will not be improved. Therefore, the network standard of the first SIM card may not be switched, or the network standard of the first SIM card may be switched to another network standard.

[0079] For example, if the current network standard of the first SIM card is 4G, the target network standard is 5G, and the multi-card terminal supports 3G, 4G, and 5G network standards, then the network standard of the first SIM card can be set to be switched to 3G (different from both the current 4G network standard and the target network standard). Alternatively, the target network standard can be changed to 3G, and then steps 202 to 203 are executed.

[0080] For the aforementioned method embodiments, for the sake of simplicity of description, they are all expressed as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should know that the present disclosure is not limited by the described order of actions, because according to the present disclosure, certain steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously.

[0081] Secondly, those skilled in the art should also be aware that the embodiments described in the specification are all optional embodiments, and the actions and modules involved are not necessarily required by the present disclosure.
