[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments in the present application belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0026] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a communication method. The communication method provided by the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 : is a flow chart of a communication method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the present application provides a communication method, which is performed by a first electronic device. The method may include:

[0028] S101, generating an authentication connection signaling according to first device information of the first electronic device, wherein the authentication connection signaling is used to request the first electronic device to establish a communication connection with a second electronic device, wherein the second electronic device has a satellite communication function;

[0029] In this embodiment, the first electronic device is a terminal device that does not have a satellite communication function. If the first electronic device wants to use satellite communication, the second electronic device can be used as a relay device to implement satellite communication. The second electronic device has a satellite communication function. For example, the first electronic device can be a mobile phone that is not configured with a satellite communication function, and the second electronic device can be a relay device that does not support satellite communication.

[0030] Specifically, the first electronic device can use its own first device information to generate an authentication connection signaling. The authentication connection signaling is a signaling used to verify the device identity of the first electronic device and request to establish a communication connection. The first device information includes the model name, identity identification code (International Mobile Equipment Identity, IMEI) and machine IP information of the first electronic device; wherein the model name refers to the model name of the first electronic device, which is used to identify the specific model and brand of the device; IMEI is the unique identity identification code of the first electronic device; and the machine IP information is the unique identifier of the first electronic device in the network. Therefore, the uniqueness and legitimacy of the identity of the first electronic device can be determined through the first device information.

[0031] S102, sending the authentication connection signaling to the second electronic device;

[0032] S103: Receive authentication feedback signaling sent by the second electronic device based on the authentication connection signaling.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present application, after the authentication connection signaling is generated in the first electronic device, the authentication connection signaling can be sent to the second electronic device. After the second electronic device receives the authentication connection signaling, it performs authentication processing based on the authentication connection signaling and sends an authentication feedback signaling to the first electronic device. Among them, the authentication feedback signaling is a signaling that responds to the authentication connection signaling, which contains the authentication result, such as whether the authentication is successful. It is used to inform the requesting first electronic device whether it has successfully passed the identity authentication, so as to decide whether to allow the communication connection to be established.

[0034] S104: When the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is successful authentication, perform satellite communication through the second electronic device.

[0035] In the present application, after the first electronic device receives the authentication feedback signaling, the authentication feedback signaling can be parsed. If the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is successful authentication, it means that the first electronic device has passed the identity authentication and obtained the connection permission with the second electronic device, that is, the first electronic device can use the second electronic device as a relay device to perform satellite communication.

[0036] Then, the first electronic device can send a communication request to the second electronic device, and after the second electronic device receives the communication request sent by the first electronic device, the first electronic device can perform satellite communication through the second electronic device. The communication request is used to request to establish a satellite communication connection with the second electronic device for satellite communication.

[0037] For example, satellite communication may include satellite calls. During the satellite call, the first electronic device may receive the first voice data of the user and send the first voice data to the second electronic device. At this time, after receiving the first voice data, the second electronic device may forward the first voice data to the target recipient through the satellite communication network, and forward the second voice data sent by the target recipient through the satellite communication network to the first electronic device, thereby realizing the satellite call of the first electronic device.

[0038] In this way, the first electronic device can communicate via the satellite network through the second electronic device even if it does not have a built-in satellite communication function.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present application, the first electronic device can generate an authentication connection signaling, and send the authentication connection signaling to the second electronic device with a satellite communication function; then receive the authentication feedback signaling sent by the second electronic device based on the authentication connection signaling, and perform satellite communication through the second electronic device when the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is a successful authentication. In this way, although the first electronic device is not equipped with satellite communication technology, it can use the second electronic device with a satellite communication function as a relay device to perform satellite communication through the relay device, thereby realizing the transmission of the satellite communication function, so that even the first electronic device that is not equipped with a satellite communication function can establish a connection with a device with a satellite function to achieve satellite communication.

[0040] In some embodiments, before sending the authentication connection signaling to the second electronic device, the method further includes:

[0041] Sending a query signaling to at least one electronic device within a preset range;

[0042] receiving query feedback signaling sent by each of the electronic devices based on the query signaling;

[0043] Determine N third electronic devices from the at least one electronic device according to the query feedback signaling, wherein the third electronic device is an electronic device having a satellite communication function, and N is a positive integer;

[0044] A second electronic device is determined from the N third electronic devices.

[0045] In this embodiment, before the first electronic device sends the authentication connection signaling to the second electronic device, it is first necessary to determine the second electronic device that has the satellite communication function. Specifically, the first electronic device can send a query signaling to all electronic devices within a preset range. The query signaling is a request signal sent by the first electronic device to inquire whether the surrounding electronic devices have the satellite communication function. The above-mentioned preset range can be a geographical range or a network range.

[0046] After receiving the query signaling sent by the first electronic device, each electronic device will feed back a query feedback signaling to the first electronic device. The query feedback signaling is a response signal sent back by the device receiving the query signaling, used to reply to the information asked by the first electronic device whether it has satellite communication function.

[0047] After the first electronic device receives the query feedback signaling sent back by each electronic device, it can parse the query feedback signaling, then determine N third electronic devices with satellite communication functions from at least one electronic device, and then screen out the second electronic device from the N third electronic devices.

[0048] For example, the first electronic device may query whether there is a satellite identifier in each query feedback signaling. If the satellite identifier exists in the query feedback signaling, it means that the electronic device corresponding to the query feedback signaling has a satellite communication function, and the electronic device may be determined as the third electronic device.

[0049] Specifically, the second electronic device is determined from the N third electronic devices. The third electronic device that is closest to the first electronic device among the N third electronic devices may be determined as the second electronic device, or the second electronic device may be randomly selected from the N third electronic devices.

[0050] For example, the first electronic device can establish a communication connection with the second electronic device through Sidelink technology. Sidelink technology refers to a technology in which devices in a mobile communication network communicate with each other directly through a wireless link instead of through a traditional base station, thereby establishing a point-to-point communication connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0051] In this embodiment, electronic devices with satellite communication functions can be accurately selected within a preset range as relay terminals, so that even if the first electronic device itself does not have a built-in satellite communication function, it can still perform satellite communication.

[0052] In some embodiments, after receiving the authentication feedback signaling sent by the second electronic device based on the authentication connection signaling, the method further includes:

[0053] When the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is authentication failure, determining a fourth electronic device from the N third electronic devices;

[0054] Sending an authentication connection signaling to the fourth electronic device.

[0055] In this embodiment, after receiving the authentication feedback signaling sent by the second electronic device based on the authentication connection signaling, if the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is authentication failure, it means that the first electronic device has failed to pass the identity authentication and cannot obtain access or connection permissions.

[0056] Then, the system will reselect a fourth electronic device from the previously determined multiple third electronic devices with satellite communication functions, and send a new authentication connection signaling to the fourth electronic device. In this way, if the device tried last time fails to pass the authentication, the system can continue to select other devices that support satellite communication for connection, avoiding communication interruption.

[0057] Through the embodiment of the present application, the success rate of the first electronic device in satellite communication is improved. Even if the device authentication fails in the first attempt, the system can automatically adjust and try other available devices, thereby ensuring that data transmission can be completed through the satellite communication function in the end.

[0058] The embodiment of the present application further provides a communication method, which is performed by a second electronic device and may include:

[0059] Receiving an authentication connection signaling sent by the first electronic device;

[0060] Parsing the authentication connection signaling to obtain first device information of the first electronic device;

[0061] Associating the first device information with the second device information of the second electronic device, and generating an authentication signaling according to the associated first device information and the second device information;

[0062] The authentication signaling is sent to a network base station, and the network base station sends the authentication signaling to a satellite via a satellite gateway.

[0063] In this embodiment, the second electronic device is a device with a satellite communication function. After the second electronic device receives the authentication connection signaling sent by the first electronic device, it can parse the authentication connection signaling and then extract the first device information of the first electronic device. The first device information may include device information such as the model name, identity identification code, and machine IP information of the first electronic device.

[0064] Next, the second electronic device can associate its second device information with the first device information, and generate an authentication signaling according to the associated first device information and second device information. The authentication signaling is used to request the satellite to verify whether the first electronic device and the second electronic device are legitimate and allow them to establish a connection with the network.

[0065] After generating the authentication signaling, the second electronic device can send the authentication signaling to the network base station, the network base station sends the authentication signaling to the satellite gateway, and the satellite gateway sends the authentication signaling to the satellite, and the satellite authenticates the first electronic device and the second electronic device based on the authentication signaling.

[0066] Specifically, the network base station is the core equipment of the ground communication system, which is responsible for receiving the authentication signaling from the terminal equipment and processing the relevant data, and then forwarding the authentication signaling to the satellite gateway or other network equipment. The role of the network base station is to ensure that the communication signal can be smoothly transmitted between the ground network and the satellite network.

[0067] The satellite gateway is a device that connects the ground network and the satellite. It is responsible for processing the signaling from the network base station, performing security access detection, and forwarding the signaling to the satellite.

[0068] After the network base station receives the authentication signaling, it can parse the first device information and the second device information associated in the authentication signaling, and then update or maintain the association data between the second electronic device and the first electronic device based on the first device information and the second device information, thereby maintaining the effective association between the first electronic device and the second electronic device. Then, the network base station forwards the authentication signaling to the satellite gateway for processing, preparing for subsequent secure access and signal forwarding. After receiving the forwarded authentication signaling, the satellite gateway can perform a secure access check on the first device information and the second device information in the authentication signaling to ensure that the above two devices meet the safety specifications and can securely access the satellite network. If the same device information has been received before, the satellite gateway skips the secure access check and directly forwards the signaling. Finally, the satellite gateway forwards the processed authentication signaling to the satellite for further processing by the satellite.

[0069] In addition, the second electronic device may also directly send the authentication signaling to the satellite.

[0070] In the above manner, by associating the device information of the first electronic device and the second electronic device, accurate verification of the device identity can be ensured, reducing the risk of identity forgery, thereby improving the security of the system.

[0071] In some embodiments, after sending the authentication signaling to the network base station, and the network base station sending the authentication signaling to the satellite through the satellite gateway, the method further includes:

[0072] receiving an authentication feedback signaling sent by the network base station, wherein the authentication feedback signaling is generated by the satellite based on the authentication signaling;

[0073] When the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is successful authentication, a communication connection is established with the satellite, and the authentication feedback signaling is sent to the first electronic device.

[0074] In this embodiment, since the authentication signaling is used to verify whether the first electronic device has the authority to establish a connection with the satellite through the second electronic device, the network base station sends the authentication signaling to the satellite through the satellite gateway for processing. After receiving the authentication signaling, the satellite verifies the first device information and the second device information therein, generates an authentication feedback signaling, and sends it back to the network base station.

[0075] For example, the authentication feedback signaling can be sent in the form of 401 / ack / 200OK. Among them, 401 indicates that the authentication failed, the device did not pass the verification, and the connection could not be established. ACK indicates that the satellite successfully received the signaling and successfully processed it, but it does not necessarily mean that it is completely successful, and usually needs to be confirmed by other signals. 200OK indicates that the authentication is successful, the device has successfully passed the verification, and the subsequent data transmission or connection establishment process can continue.

[0076] When the network base station receives the authentication feedback signaling returned by the satellite and confirms that the authentication result is "authentication successful", it indicates that the first electronic device and the second electronic device have passed the identity authentication and can establish a communication connection with the satellite. At this time, the network base station will notify the satellite to start the data transmission connection and send the authentication feedback signaling to the second electronic device to complete the entire authentication process.

[0077] For example, the satellite can send authentication feedback signaling to the satellite gateway. After receiving the authentication feedback signaling sent by the satellite, the satellite gateway will continue to forward the authentication feedback signaling to the network base station for processing. After receiving the authentication feedback signaling, the network base station can parse the authentication feedback signaling. If the authentication result obtained by the analysis is "authentication successful", the network base station can send the authentication feedback signaling to the core network server for processing. After receiving the authentication feedback signaling, the core network server can associate the first device information with the second device information and store it in its own database, thereby ensuring that in the subsequent communication process, if the same device or repeated signaling arrives, the core network server can quickly search the database. Subsequently, the core network server can send the authentication feedback signaling back to the network base station. Then the network base station can send the authentication feedback signaling to the second electronic device.

[0078] If the authentication result obtained by parsing by the network base station is "authentication failed", the network base station can directly forward the authentication feedback signaling to the second electronic device.

[0079] In addition, after the second electronic device receives the authentication feedback signaling indicating that the authentication result is "authentication successful", the second electronic device can directly send a connection signaling to the satellite to establish a communication connection with the satellite. After the communication connection is established, the second electronic device sends the authentication feedback signaling to the first electronic device.

[0080] In this way, it can be ensured that the second electronic device can be connected to the satellite only after the authentication is successful, ensuring the security of communication and preventing unauthorized devices from accessing the satellite network, thereby improving the security and reliability of the network. In addition, after the authentication is successful, the authentication feedback signaling is sent to the first electronic device in a timely manner to ensure that the device can successfully establish a communication connection with the satellite and realize data transmission.

[0081] In some embodiments, after receiving the authentication feedback signaling sent by the network base station, the method further includes:

[0082] When the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is authentication failure, the authentication feedback signaling is sent to the first electronic device.

[0083] In this embodiment, when the network base station receives the authentication feedback signaling returned by the satellite and parses it to obtain the authentication result of "authentication failed", this indicates that the first electronic device and the second electronic device have not passed the satellite authentication and cannot establish a communication connection with the satellite.

[0084] Then, the second electronic device may directly forward the authentication feedback signaling to the first electronic device, and the first electronic device attempts to perform satellite communication through other relay devices.

[0085] In this way, even if the authentication fails, the first electronic device can obtain the failure information in time and take measures to try to re-establish the satellite communication connection through other available relay devices, thereby improving the success rate of the connection and the reliability of the network.

[0086] In some embodiments, when the authentication result in the authentication feedback signaling is successful authentication, after establishing a communication connection with the satellite and sending the authentication feedback signaling to the first electronic device, the method further includes:

[0087] receiving a communication request sent by the first electronic device;

[0088] Satellite communication of the first electronic device is implemented according to the communication request.

[0089] In this embodiment, if the authentication is successful, the first electronic device can perform satellite communication through the second electronic device. Then, the first electronic device can send a communication request to the second electronic device, and the communication request is used to request to establish a satellite communication connection with the second electronic device for satellite communication. After the second electronic device receives the communication request sent by the first electronic device, it will send a confirmation feedback signaling to the first electronic device, indicating that the satellite communication connection has been successfully established, allowing the first electronic device to perform satellite communication through the second electronic device. Subsequently, the first electronic device can perform satellite communication through the second electronic device.

[0090] In this way, the first electronic device can utilize the satellite network to transmit data through the second electronic device even if the first electronic device itself does not have a built-in satellite communication function.

[0122] It should be noted that the electronic devices in the embodiments of the present application include the above-mentioned mobile electronic devices and non-mobile electronic devices.

[0123] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The hardware structure diagram of an electronic device for implementing an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. The electronic device 100 includes, but is not limited to, a radio frequency unit 121, a network module 122, an audio output unit 123, an input unit 124, a sensor 125, a display unit 126, a user input unit 127, an interface unit 128, a memory 129, and a processor 120.
