Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technology. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a re-registration method and device for a dual-SIM card terminal. Background Art

[0002] The emergence of dual-SIM terminals, particularly the widespread use of dual-SIM dual IP Multimedia Subsystems (IMS), has led to increasing attention to power consumption. For IMS (including Voice over Long-Term Evolution (VoLTE) and Voice over New Radio (VoNR)), periodic re-registration in standby mode requires user equipment (UE) wakeup and the establishment, connection, and release of Radio Resource Control (RRC), increasing UE power consumption. Dual-SIM terminals require periodic re-registration for each SIM card, further increasing power consumption.

[0003] During the standby process, the terminal needs to re-register periodically based on the time sent by the network after the SIM card successfully registers with the IMS. If the re-registration period T of the two SIM cards is the same, SIM1 starts registering at t1 and SIM2 starts registering at t2. Figure 1 As shown, the terminal will be awakened at approximately t1+T, t2+T, t1+2*T, t2+2*T... to complete the re-registration process of the corresponding card.

[0004] When the SIM card is re-registered with the IMS in the standby state, the terminal will wake up to establish and connect the RRC. After the registration is completed, the RRC connection state will continue and wait for the network to release it before returning to the idle state. During this period, high power consumption will be caused.

[0005] Generally, after the device is powered on or off, in airplane mode, or the SIM cards are removed or inserted, both SIM cards will complete the initial registration process almost simultaneously. However, in some special cases, such as when one SIM card's initial registration or re-registration takes a long time due to network issues, or when a network disconnection causes another initial registration, or when the user manually turns one SIM card on or off, the next re-registration of the two SIM cards may be out of sync.

[0006] If the two SIM cards initiate re-registration at different times, each re-registration round will require the terminal to perform two wake-up-connect-and-continue processes, resulting in double power consumption. For example, if a dual-SIM, dual-IMS terminal is on standby for 8 hours overnight, and the operator's re-registration cycle is 50 minutes, the terminal will re-register approximately 10 times for each SIM card. Assuming the RRC connection duration after registration is X (for example, 6 seconds) for both SIM cards, and the total number of wake-ups is 20, the total wait time is 20*X. This shows that the long RRC connection duration after registration of both SIM cards, the high number of wake-ups, and the high power consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0039] Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like parts throughout. The embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings to explain the present disclosure.

[0040] The present disclosure provides a re-registration method for a dual-SIM card terminal. Each time a SIM card triggers re-registration, the dual-SIM card terminal obtains the re-registration times (re-registration cycle and next re-registration time point) of the two SIM cards (SIM1 and SIM2), and synchronizes the re-registrations of the two SIM cards based on the re-registration times of the two SIM cards, thereby reducing the total duration of the RRC connection state of the two SIM cards after re-registration and reducing power consumption.

[0041] Figure 2 A flow chart illustrating a re-registration method for a dual SIM card terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 3 A schematic diagram illustrating re-registration of a dual SIM card terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 In step S201, in response to the re-registration process being triggered by the first SIM card (hereinafter, also referred to as SIM1) of the dual SIM card terminal, the re-registration information of each of the first SIM card and the second SIM card (hereinafter, also referred to as SIM2) of the dual SIM card terminal is obtained.

[0043] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the re-registration information may include a re-registration period and a trigger time for the next re-registration. The first SIM card re-registration time may include a first SIM card re-registration period (T1) and a time for the next re-registration of the first SIM card. The second SIM card re-registration time may include a second SIM card re-registration period (T2) and a time for the next re-registration of the second SIM card.

[0044] Specifically, for a dual-SIM card terminal, when the initial registration or re-registration of a SIM card (first SIM card SIM1 / second SIM card SIM2) is successful, the dual-SIM card terminal can record the re-registration time of the first SIM card (SIM1) / second SIM card (SIM2) based on the time value issued by the network, including the re-registration period and the time point for the next re-registration (the current time point plus the re-registration period). If the registration of the first SIM card (SIM1) fails, the re-registration time of the first SIM card (SIM1) is set to, for example, -1 (indicating an invalid value, which is the default value when not registered). When one of the SIM cards (such as the first SIM card (SIM1)) in the dual-SIM card terminal triggers re-registration, the re-registration period T1 and the current time point t1 of the first SIM card (SIM1) are obtained; at the same time, the dual-SIM card terminal (dual-SIM card terminal) obtains the re-registration period T2 and the next re-registration time point t2 of the other SIM card (the second SIM card (SIM2)).

[0045] In step S202, based on the respective re-registration information of the first SIM card and the second SIM card, the re-registration of the first SIM card and the second SIM card is synchronously processed.

[0046] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, synchronizing the re-registrations of the first SIM card and the second SIM card may include: determining a relationship between a re-registration period of the first SIM card and a re-registration period of the second SIM card; determining a time difference between a trigger time for a next re-registration of the second SIM card and a current time based on the predetermined relationship; and synchronizing the re-registrations of the first SIM card and the second SIM card based on the time difference.

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the predetermined relationship may include: the re-registration period of the first SIM card is the same as the re-registration period of the second SIM card; and / or the re-registration period of the first SIM card is a multiple of the re-registration period of the second SIM card.

[0048] That is to say, if Figure 3 As shown, after obtaining the first SIM card re-registration time and the second SIM card re-registration time of the dual-SIM card terminal, the process first determines whether the first SIM card re-registration period T1 and the second SIM card re-registration period T2 in the first SIM card re-registration time are the same or a multiple of each other. If so, the process proceeds to the next step. If not, no special processing is performed, and this round of the process ends.

[0049] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, synchronizing the re-registration of the first and second SIM cards based on the time difference may include: when the time difference is less than a first threshold, synchronizing the re-registration of the first and second SIM cards based on the communication mode of the dual-SIM card terminal; when the time difference is greater than or equal to the first threshold and less than a second threshold, canceling the re-registration of the second SIM card, and synchronizing the re-registration of the first SIM card and the deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card based on the communication mode of the dual-SIM card terminal. The second threshold may be, for example, but not limited to, half of the smaller value of T1 and T2 (to prevent synchronization failure when the re-registration interval is too long). A larger first threshold value results in better optimization; a larger value may cause network problems. The first threshold value is related to the local network; for example, the first threshold value = min(T1, T2)*1 / 10.

[0050] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the re-registration of the first SIM card and the second SIM card is synchronously processed based on the communication mode of the dual SIM card terminal, including: when the communication mode is a first mode (for example, but not limited to, a dual-pass mode), re-registration of the first SIM card and the second SIM card is performed simultaneously; when the communication mode is a second mode (for example, but not limited to, a single-pass mode), re-registration of the two SIM cards of the dual SIM card terminal is performed sequentially based on the primary and secondary states of the first SIM card.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, re-registration of the two SIM cards of the dual-SIM card terminal is performed sequentially based on the primary and secondary status of the first SIM card, including: based on the first SIM card being the primary card, re-registration of the first SIM card and the second SIM card is performed sequentially; and / or based on the first SIM card being the secondary card, re-registration of the second SIM card and the first SIM card is performed sequentially.

[0052] For example, depending on the single-mode dual-mode mode, the order in which the two SIM cards are processed differs slightly. Single-mode terminals reregister the primary and secondary cards sequentially (some chips place the primary card first, allowing for faster secondary card processing). Dual-mode terminals can reregister both SIM cards simultaneously. Once the reregistration of the second SIM card (SIM2) is complete, the original scheduled reregistration task for the second SIM card (SIM2) is canceled.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, re-registration of the first SIM card and deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card are synchronously processed based on the communication mode of the dual-SIM card terminal, including: when the communication mode is the first mode, re-registration of the first SIM card and deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card are performed simultaneously; when the communication mode is the second mode, re-registration of the first SIM card and deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card are performed sequentially based on the primary and secondary states of the first SIM card.

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, reregistration of the first SIM card and deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card are sequentially performed based on the primary and secondary status of the first SIM card, including: based on the first SIM card being the primary card, reregistration of the first SIM card and deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card are sequentially performed; based on the first SIM card being the secondary card, deregistration and initial registration of the second SIM card and reregistration of the first SIM card are sequentially performed.

[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, because the second SIM card (SIM2) is still a long time away from re-registration when the time difference is greater than the first threshold and less than the second threshold, in order to meet the re-registration specification requirements of 3GPP, the re-registration of the second SIM card (SIM2) is replaced by de-registration + initial registration. For dual-channel terminals, the registration of two SIM cards can be performed at the same time. For single-channel terminals, the main card is first determined. If the first SIM card (SIM1) is the main card, the re-registration of the first SIM card (SIM1), the de-registration of the second SIM card (SIM2) and the initial registration of the second SIM card (SIM2) are performed in sequence. If the second SIM card (SIM2) is the main card, the de-registration of the second SIM card (SIM2), the initial registration of the second SIM card (SIM2) and the re-registration of the first SIM card (SIM1) are performed in sequence. After the registration process of the second SIM card (SIM2) is completed, the original re-registration timing task of the second SIM card (SIM2) is canceled. In addition, as Figure 3 As shown, when the time difference is greater than the second threshold, no processing is performed and this round of control process ends.

[0056] During standby mode for a dual-SIM dual-IMS terminal, if it is a single-mode terminal, when the first SIM card is about to re-register, the interval between this time and the re-registration of the second SIM card is calculated. If the interval is less than a certain time, the re-registration process of the primary and secondary cards is performed in sequence. If it is a dual-mode terminal, the two SIM cards can establish RRC connections at the same time, and the re-registration process can be performed simultaneously.

[0057] Taking 10 re-registrations as an example, the total number of wake-up times is reduced from 20 to 10. This way, the re-registration time of two SIM cards is synchronized each time. In a re-registration process, the dual-SIM terminal will only wake up once, and the duration of the RRC connection state is greatly reduced, achieving a power saving effect.

[0058] Figure 4 A schematic diagram illustrating alignment re-registration time in a single-pass mode according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 5 Schematic diagram showing the alignment re-registration time of the dual-pass mode according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the total RRC connection waiting time of a single-pass terminal can be reduced from 20X seconds to 10(X+Δ) seconds. The offset time Δ (about 0.2s) is the time required from the completion of SIM1 re-registration to the start of SIM2 re-registration, which is much less than X (about 6s). The durations of Δ and X are determined by the interaction between the UE and the IMS network. Figure 5 As shown, two SIM cards in dual-mode can be re-registered simultaneously. As an example, during a five-hour standby period (six re-registration cycles), the average current before the improvement was 15.80 mA, and the average current after the improvement was 15.06 mA, reducing the total power consumption to 95% of the original level.
