[0033] The embodiments of the present application provide a data link configuration method, apparatus, electronic device, and computer-readable storage medium, which can evaluate the data link configuration methods supported by the terminal capabilities according to user requirements, and select a data link configuration method that better meets the user's usage requirements for data services, thereby improving the user experience.

[0034] The data link configuration method of the embodiments of the present application is applied to an electronic device. In some embodiments, the electronic device can be implemented as various types of user terminals such as a laptop computer, a tablet computer, a desktop computer, a set-top box, a mobile device (e.g., a mobile phone, a portable music player, a personal digital assistant, a dedicated messaging device, a portable game device), etc. Exemplarily, the electronic device can include a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a smart speaker, a smart watch, etc. that are equipped with a smart operating system such as the Android system, and specific selection is made according to the actual situation, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0035] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a flowchart illustration of a data link configuration method provided by the embodiments of the present application Figure 1 , including:

[0036] S101. Determine multiple data link configuration methods according to the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal.

[0037] In the embodiments of the present application, the data transmission capabilities characterize the data links supported by the terminal for data services and the single-channel transmission or multi-channel concurrent transmission capabilities of the data links. By obtaining the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal, various single-channel transmission and / or multi-channel concurrent transmission methods of the data links supported by the terminal can be determined, so as to obtain multiple data link transmission methods that can be configured on the terminal, that is, multiple data link configuration methods.

[0038] Exemplarily, the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal can characterize: the single-channel transmission capabilities of multiple data links such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, D2D, and cellular supported by the terminal, and / or the multi-channel concurrent transmission capabilities of at least two of the data links. In this way, multiple data links including single data links and / or multi-link combinations can be determined according to the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal.

[0039] In some embodiments, multiple single-channel data links, and / or multiple data link combinations, and / or the configuration methods corresponding to at least one single-channel data link and at least one data transmission combination can be determined according to the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal, so as to determine multiple data link configuration methods.

[0040] Exemplarily, based on all single-channel data links supported by the terminal and all multi-channel data link combinations obtained by combining at least two single-channel data links, a complete set of configurable data link transmission methods on the terminal can be determined as various data link configuration methods.

[0041] S102. Evaluate each data link configuration method among the various data link configuration methods according to at least one usage requirement, and determine multiple evaluation results corresponding to the various data link configuration methods.

[0042] In the embodiments of the present application, the usage requirement represents the user's usage requirement for the data link. In some embodiments, at least one usage requirement may include at least one of bandwidth requirement, tariff requirement, power consumption requirement, and delay requirement. Alternatively, it can be further expanded according to actual user requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations.

[0043] In the embodiments of the present application, one data link configuration method corresponds to one evaluation result. In some embodiments, for each data link configuration method, it can be evaluated through each usage requirement in at least one usage requirement to determine at least one evaluation value corresponding to the data link configuration method under at least one usage requirement. Combining the at least one evaluation value, the evaluation result corresponding to the data link configuration method is obtained. It can be understood that the evaluation result corresponding to the data link configuration method can represent the comprehensive effect under at least one usage requirement when using the data link configuration method for data services. In this way, by processing various data link configuration methods, multiple evaluation results corresponding to the various data link configuration methods can be obtained.

[0044] In some embodiments, weights can also be combined with the at least one evaluation value to obtain the evaluation result corresponding to the data link configuration method.

[0045] S103. Based on the multiple evaluation results, determine the target data link configuration method from the various data link configuration methods.

[0046] In the embodiments of the present application, each evaluation result represents the comprehensive effect under at least one usage requirement when using the corresponding data link configuration method for data services. In this way, according to the multiple evaluation results, the data link configuration method with the optimal comprehensive effect can be determined from the various data link configuration methods as the target data link configuration method.

[0047] In some embodiments, after determining the target data link configuration method, the data link currently used by the terminal can be switched to the data link or data link combination corresponding to the target data link configuration method.

[0048] It can be understood that the embodiments of the present application implement an evaluation of multiple data link configuration methods determined based on the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal according to at least one usage requirement that the user is concerned about during data transmission, and select a data link configuration method that better meets the user's usage requirements to conduct data services, thereby improving the user experience.

[0049] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown, the above S102 further includes:

[0050] S201. Determine at least one weight corresponding to at least one usage requirement.

[0051] In some embodiments, at least one weight may be a preset value. Exemplarily, at least one weight may be set according to empirical values, or in some embodiments, at least one weight may be determined by obtaining the operations of the user on the target interface. That is to say, the embodiments of the present application can provide an interface for interacting with the user, and the user can set the weights corresponding to the usage requirements, thereby further improving the user experience.

[0052] S202. Determine the evaluation result corresponding to each data link configuration method according to at least one usage requirement and at least one weight, so as to determine multiple evaluation results corresponding to multiple data link configuration methods.

[0053] In the embodiments of the present application, the evaluation value corresponding to each data link configuration method under this usage requirement can be weighted according to the weight corresponding to each usage requirement to obtain the weighted result corresponding to this usage requirement; combining at least one weighted result corresponding to at least one usage requirement, the evaluation result corresponding to each data link configuration method can be obtained. By performing the above processing on multiple data link configuration methods, multiple evaluation results corresponding to multiple data link configuration methods can be obtained.

[0054] In some embodiments, a target evaluation model may be determined according to at least one usage requirement and at least one weight; for each data link configuration method, determine the evaluation value corresponding to each usage requirement in at least one usage requirement, so as to determine multiple evaluation values corresponding to at least one usage requirement; according to the target evaluation model and multiple evaluation values, determine the evaluation result corresponding to each data link configuration method.

[0055] Among them, the target evaluation model represents a comprehensive model for evaluating data link configuration methods. At least one usage requirement may be embodied as a positive factor that has a positive impact on the evaluation result in the target evaluation model, or may be embodied as a negative factor that has a negative impact on the evaluation result.

[0056] Exemplarily, the target evaluation model can be in the form of a mathematical expression. For usage requirements where a higher value is better, such as bandwidth, it can be a positive value in the mathematical expression; for usage requirements where a lower value is better, such as service charge, power consumption, and latency, it can be a negative value in the mathematical expression. Then, by combining their respective weights, a target expression can be obtained.

[0057] Exemplarily, the target evaluation model can be as shown in formula (1) as follows:

[0058] Maxf(s) = Bandwidth(s) * w1 - Cost(s) * w2 - Power(s) * w3 Formula (1)

[0059] Among them, the variable s represents the data link configuration method. The complete set of s is determined according to the data transmission capabilities supported by the terminal. For example, the single-channel data link configuration method of Wi-Fi can be defined as s1, the single-channel data link configuration method of cellular data card 1 can be defined as s2, and the single-channel data link configuration method of cellular data card 2 can be defined as s3. Among them, card 1 and card 2 refer to the SIM card slot identifiers on the terminal. If the terminal supports simultaneous transmission of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 1, a multi-channel data link configuration method s1&s2 can also be defined; if the terminal supports simultaneous transmission of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 2, a multi-channel data link configuration method s1&s3 can also be defined; if the terminal supports simultaneous transmission of cellular data card 1 and card 2, a multi-channel data link configuration method s2&s3 can also be defined; if the terminal supports simultaneous transmission of Wi-Fi, cellular data card 1, and cellular data card 2, a multi-channel data link configuration method s1&s2&s3 can also be defined; therefore, the complete set of s, that is, various data link configuration methods, is {s1, s2, s3, s1&s2, s1&s3, s2&s3, s1&s2&s3}.

[0060] Among them, Bandwidth(s) is defined as the bandwidth that can be provided when using the data transmission scheme of type s, Cost(s) is defined as the communication service charge that needs to be consumed when using the data transmission scheme of type s, and Power(s) is defined as the power consumption that needs to be spent when using the data transmission scheme of type s.

[0061] In some embodiments, when using the data transmission scheme of type s, the obtainable bandwidth Bandwidth(s), the consumed communication service charge Cost(s), and the consumed power consumption Power(s) are all calculated by the terminal according to the current network state and the terminal state.

[0062] Exemplarily, taking the evaluation of a Wi-Fi single-channel data link as an example, the bandwidth that can be obtained when the terminal connects to Wi-Fi is 100 MB / s, and the monthly rent is 100 yuan / month. The communication fee calculation formula can be as shown in formula (2):

[0063]

[0064] In some embodiments, the calculation method of Wi-Fi power consumption can refer to the acquisition of power consumption data when the terminal connects to Wi-Fi.

[0065] Similarly, the bandwidth, communication fees, and power consumption of cellular data cards 1 and 2 can be calculated, as well as the bandwidth, communication fees, and power consumption when Wi-Fi and cellular data are concurrent and when dual-card data is concurrent.

[0066] In formula (1), f(s) is equal to the sum of the products of the bandwidth, communication fees, power consumption, and their weights generated when using solution s. Since the communication fees and power consumption are better when minimized, they are subtraction terms in formula (1). Finding Max means that we want to find the solution s that maximizes the value of f(s), which can maximize the bandwidth, minimize the communication fees, and minimize the power consumption.

[0067] It can be seen that through formula (1), the optimal solution that maximizes the value of f(s) can be determined from multiple data link configuration methods. Furthermore, the data link configuration method corresponding to the optimal solution s can be implemented as the target data link configuration method. Exemplarily, if the optimal solution is s1&s2, then enable the concurrent transmission solution of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 1. If the optimal solution is s1&s3, then switch the primary data card to card 2 and enable the concurrent transmission solution of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 2.

[0068] It can be understood that the embodiments of the present application can analyze and make decisions on the diverse needs and diverse communication capabilities of users in a unified model, so as to maximize the benefits brought by the communication capabilities supported by users and improve the user experience.

[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the process of S103 may include:

[0070] S301. Determine at least one constraint condition corresponding to at least one usage requirement.

[0071] Among them, for some or all of the at least one usage requirement, its corresponding constraint condition can be determined. That is, at least one usage requirement and at least one constraint condition do not need to correspond one by one.

[0072] In some embodiments, at least one constraint condition may be determined according to the current service and / or user settings. Exemplarily, at least one constraint condition may be determined according to at least one dimension among the data requirements, usage scenarios of the current service, and user settings.

[0073] Exemplarily, at least one constraint condition may include Constraint 1, Constraint 2, and Constraint 3 as follows, where:

[0074] Constraint 1: Bandwidth(s) >= Th1;

[0075] Constraint 2: Cost(s) <= Th2;

[0076] Constraint 3: Power(s) <= Th3.

[0077] Wherein, Th1, Th2, and Th3 are defined as the demand thresholds for the bandwidth, communication fees, and power consumption of the service that the terminal is using.

[0078] Exemplarily, when the current service is a network video service and smooth video playback needs to be ensured, if the bandwidth threshold is not less than 10MB / s for smooth playback, Th1 can be defined as 10MB / s, so as to obtain the constraint condition Constraint 1 (hereinafter simply referred to as C1) as Bandwidth(s) >= Th1

[0079] Exemplarily, if the user has a custom limit on the traffic fee, such as not exceeding 0.1 yuan / GB, then Th2 can be defined as 0.1 yuan / GB, so as to obtain the constraint condition Constraint 2 (hereinafter simply referred to as

[0080] C2): Cost(s) <= Th2;

[0081] Exemplarily, if the remaining battery power of the user is low at this time and there are requirements for the power consumption at this time, then Th3 can be defined as the threshold calculated according to a more power-saving method, so as to obtain the constraint condition Constraint 3

[0082] (hereinafter simply referred to as C3) as Power(s) <= Th3.

[0083] It should be noted that the constraint conditions, such as the thresholds, can be determined according to the user's empirical values or the actual investigation and testing of the terminal service scenarios. Different constraint conditions are pre-established according to different communication scenarios or user requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations.

[0084] S302. Combine at least one constraint condition with multiple evaluation results to determine the target data link configuration method.

[0085] In the embodiments of the present application, multiple evaluation results can be analyzed under the constraints of at least one constraint condition to determine the target data link configuration method.

[0086] In some embodiments, the optimal evaluation result among multiple evaluation results that meet at least one constraint condition can be determined as the target evaluation result; the optimal evaluation result represents the evaluation result that makes the target evaluation model obtain the maximum value; the target data link configuration method is determined according to the data link configuration method corresponding to the target evaluation result.

[0087] That is to say, the target evaluation result needs to be the optimal evaluation result among multiple evaluation results. Exemplarily, f(s) of the target evaluation result is the maximum value among multiple evaluation results, and the target evaluation result needs to meet at least one constraint condition.

[0088] In some embodiments, in combination with formula (1), each data link transmission method s can be substituted into formula (1) in turn to find the optimal target solution that can achieve the maximum f(s) among all solutions that meet the constraint conditions C1, C2, and C3, and use it as the target data link transmission method.

[0089] In some embodiments, at least one data link configuration method that meets at least one constraint condition can also be determined among multiple data link configuration methods; according to at least one usage requirement, each data link configuration method in at least one data link configuration method is evaluated to determine at least one evaluation result corresponding to at least one data link configuration method; based on at least one evaluation result, the target data link configuration method is determined from at least one data link configuration method.

[0090] That is to say, after determining at least one constraint condition corresponding to at least one usage requirement, first exclude the data link configuration methods that do not meet the constraint conditions, and perform traversal and solution on the remaining data link configuration methods, which can improve the processing efficiency, reduce the decision time of link configuration, and further improve the user experience.

[0091] In some embodiments, when there are multiple target evaluation results, the data link configuration method corresponding to any one of the multiple target evaluation results can be determined as the target data link configuration method. Or, the target data link configuration method can also be determined according to the target evaluation result representing a single data link configuration method; that is, select the single data channel solution to take effect to save power more.

[0092] Based on the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present application provide a data link configuration method applied to an actual scenario, such as Figure 4As shown, it includes: obtaining the services used by the terminal and specifying at least one constraint condition (such as at least one of Th1, Th2, and Th3) according to user requirements; obtaining the network connection status of the current terminal and determining at least one evaluation value, such as at least one of Bandwidth(s), Cost(s), and Power(s); obtaining the preference selection of the terminal and determining at least one weight (such as at least one of w1, w2, and w3); obtaining the support capabilities of the current terminal and determining the complete set S of solutions s (that is, various data link configuration methods); finding the solution s corresponding to the maximum f(s) when C1 / C2 / C3 is satisfied in the complete set S; enabling the data link transmission scheme corresponding to the solution s.

[0093] Exemplarily, user A is using a certain video playback application, with bandwidth requirement: 10MB / s, communication fee requirement: none, power consumption requirement: none; then at least one constraint condition may include:

[0094] Constraint 1: Bandwidth(s) >= 10MB / s;

[0095] Constraint 2: None;

[0096] Constraint 3: None.

[0097] The set of communication data transmission capabilities supported by user A's terminal is: {s1, s2, s3, s1&s2, s1&s3, s2&s3}, which supports both the concurrent use of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 1, the concurrent use of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 2, and the concurrent use of cellular data card 1 and cellular data card 2.

[0098] Based on the performance and historical data of the user terminal, it is calculated that the Wi-Fi data power consumption of the known user is p1, the cellular data power consumption of cellular data card 1 is p2, and the cellular data power consumption of cellular data card 2 is p3. Usually, the Wi-Fi power consumption is lower than that of cellular data, so p2 > p1 and p3 > p1. The power consumption of the concurrent use of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 1 and the concurrent use of Wi-Fi and cellular data card 2 is p4, p4 > p2 > p1, p4 > p3 > p1, and the power consumption of the concurrent use of cellular data card 1 and cellular data card 2 is p5, p5 > p2 > p1, p5 > p3 > p1.

[0099] Based on the operator's tariff package of the user terminal, it is calculated that the cellular data fee of the known user for cellular data card 1 is c1, and the cellular data fee for cellular data card 2 is c2. If the video application played by user A is an unlimited data application supported by cellular data card 2, then c1 > c2.

[0100] There is a public Wi-Fi deployed in the environment where user A's terminal is located (multiple people are connected, and user A is allocated a bandwidth of 1MB / s).

[0101] Bandwidth(s1) = 1MB / s

[0102] Cost(s1) = 0

[0103] Power(s1) = p1

[0104] User A has two cards inserted. The bandwidth supported by Card 1 is 100MB / s.

[0105] Bandwidth(s2) = 100MB / s

[0106] Cost(s2) = c1

[0107] Power(s2) = p2

[0108] The bandwidth supported by Card 2 is 100MB / s.

[0109] Bandwidth(s3) = 100MB / s

[0110] Cost(s3) = c2

[0111] Power(s3) = p3

[0112] According to the performance of the user terminal, when the user supports the concurrent use of Wi-Fi and cellular data Card 1:

[0113] Bandwidth(s1&s2) = 10MB / s + 100MB / s = 110MB / s

[0114] Cost(s1&s2) = 0 + c1 = c1

[0115] Power(s1&s2) = p4

[0116] When the user supports the concurrent use of Wi-Fi and cellular data Card 2:

[0117] Bandwidth(s1&s3) = 10MB / s + 100MB / s = 110MB / s

[0118] Cost(s1&s3) = 0 + c2 = c2

[0119] Power(s1&s3) = p4

[0120] When the user supports the concurrent use of cellular data Card 1 and cellular data Card 2:

[0121] Bandwidth(s2&s3) = 100MB / s + 100MB / s = 110MB / s

[0122] Cost(s2&s3) = c1 + c2

[0123] Power(s2&s3) = p5

[0124] Set options (power saving priority / traffic saving priority / high speed priority / intelligent decision-making) for users to choose. If the user selects traffic saving priority, the value of w2 is larger, w2 = 1 > w1 = w3 = 0.

[0125] Max F(s) = Bandwidth(s) * w1 - Cost(s) * w2 - Power(s) * w3

[0126] = -Cost(s)

[0127] The solution set {s2, s3, s1&s2, s1&s3, s2&s3} calculated based on this meets the constraint condition C1. Among all solutions that meet the constraint conditions, the optimal solution for Max F(s) is {s3, s1&s3}, that is, switch data to card 2 or enable Wi-Fi to work concurrently with card 2. When there are the same solutions that meet the conditions and the max values are the same, the single data channel solution (default more power-saving) is preferentially enabled, that is, the single data channel of card 2 in {s3};

[0128] If, under the condition of traffic saving priority, the user prefers high speed priority, the weights are adjusted to w2 > w1 > w3 = 0. Here, -Cost(s) * w2 is defined

[0129] Max F(s) = Bandwidth(s) * w1 - Cost(s) * w2 - Power(s) * w3

[0130] = Bandwidth(s) * w1 - Cost(s) * w2

[0131] Substitute and solve:

[0132] s1 does not meet C1, so the solution is excluded.

[0133] s2: Bandwidth(s2) * w1 - Cost(s2) * w2

[0134] s3: Bandwidth(s3) * w1 - Cost(s3) * w2

[0135] s1&s3: Bandwidth(s1&s3) * w1 - Cost(s1&s3) * w2

[0136] = Bandwidth(s1&s3) * w1 - Cost(s3) * w2

[0137] s1&s2: Bandwidth(s1&s2)*w1 - Cost(s1&s2)*w2

[0138] = Bandwidth(s1&s2)*w1 - Cost(s2)*w2

[0139] s2&s3: Bandwidth(s2&s3)*w1 - Cost(s2&s3)*w2

[0140] Since Bandwidth(s1&s3) > Bandwidth(s3); s1&s3 is superior to s3;

[0141] Since Bandwidth(s1&s2) > Bandwidth(s2); s1&s2 is superior to s2;

[0142] Since Bandwidth(s1&s3) = Bandwidth(s1&s2), Cost(s3) < Cost(s2), s1&s3 is superior to s1&s2;

[0143] If

[0144] Bandwidth(s1&s3)*w1 - Cost(s3)*w > Bandwidth(s2&s3)*w1 - Cost(s2&s3)*w2, then the optimal solution is s1&s3, that is, the Wi-Fi and Card 2 concurrent data channels. Conversely, the optimal solution is s2&s3, that is, the cellular data Card 1 and Card 2 concurrent data channels.

[0145] It can be understood that the embodiments of the present application comprehensively consider the user's bandwidth requirements, tariff requirements, power consumption requirements, and user preferences, and can maximize the user's service transmission bandwidth, minimize the user's communication tariff, and minimize the user's communication power consumption. Further, for the Wi-Fi data, cellular card 1 data, and cellular card 2 data, when they are transmitted separately and concurrently, a set of solutions is defined according to the capabilities supported by the user terminal.
