Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of Internet of Things devices, and in particular to an optimal operator network detection and switching method, system, terminal and medium. Background Art

[0002] The hardware of current IoT devices (such as outdoor advertising screen devices) supports the simultaneous installation of multiple SIM cards, or a single eSIM card (single card but supports multiple operators), allowing outdoor advertising screen devices to switch to different network operators to access the Internet.

[0003] Traditionally, SIM switching is done by equipment maintenance personnel or users. Due to a lack of network knowledge and professional measurement tools, these personnel can only randomly select a carrier that can access the Internet normally, and cannot select the currently optimal carrier for Internet access. Furthermore, due to changes in the physical environment, the optimal carrier may also change. However, devices such as outdoor advertising screens are often unattended, making it impossible to frequently test the device's connection to the carrier network. Consequently, even if the device has a carrier switching function, it may not actually use the optimal network to operate, leading to various network problems.

[0004] Therefore, the prior art still has defects. Summary of the Invention

[0040] In response to the problems of the existing technology, this embodiment provides a method for detecting and switching the optimal operator network. Based on this method, the device can automatically trigger the detection of all supported operator networks at regular intervals, and switch to the optimal operator network based on the detection results, thereby ensuring that the device can continuously and stably perform network communications. In specific applications, this embodiment can first run a network detection program, and based on the network detection program, switch the network to each operator in the target operator range one by one. Then, the operating information of each operator is detected to obtain the detection results. Finally, based on the detection results, the optimal operator is determined, and the network is switched to the optimal operator, thereby ensuring that the device continues to use the network of the optimal operator.

[0041] The optimal operator network detection and switching method of the present invention can be applied to terminals, including intelligent product terminals such as computers, televisions and mobile phones. Specifically, Figure 1 As shown in , the optimal operator network detection and switching method of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0042] Step S100: Run a network detection program, and switch the network to each operator in the target operator range one by one based on the network detection program.

[0043] In actual application, this embodiment pre-installs the network detection program and sets the scheduled start time of the network detection program. The network detection program can be used to detect the operation information of the network of each operator. In addition, this embodiment sets the scheduled start time of the network detection program in order to control the network detection program to automatically start at a scheduled time without manual triggering. As long as the current time meets the pre-set scheduled start time, the network detection program can be automatically triggered and run, and then the network of the device is switched to each operator in the target operator range one by one based on the network detection program. In this embodiment, the target operator range is composed of all operators supported by the device. Specifically, this embodiment can pre-set all operator information supported by the device to obtain the target operator range. Therefore, this embodiment can realize network detection of each operator based on the network detection program, so as to screen out the optimal operator in the subsequent steps.

[0044] In one implementation, step S100 in this embodiment specifically includes the following steps:

[0045] Step S101: obtaining the current time, and starting the network detection program when the current time meets the scheduled start time;

[0046] Step S102: Obtain the target operator range, run the network detection program, and gradually switch the network to each operator in the target operator range.

[0047] Specifically, this embodiment can first obtain the current time, then match the current time with the preset timer start time. If the current time meets the timer start time, the network detection program is automatically triggered. Then, the operators supported by the device are obtained, that is, the target operator range is obtained. The network detection program is then run, and the device's network is gradually switched to each operator in the target operator. In other words, this embodiment can switch the device network to each operator supported by the setting one by one based on the network detection program. In this way, after the switch is successful, the operating status of each operator can be analyzed separately to screen out the optimal operator.

[0048] In this embodiment, the network detection program is automatically triggered and is timed. In order to realize the automatic triggering of the network detection program, this embodiment can build the network detection program into the device and write a timed triggering software program to realize the automatic triggering of the network detection program.

[0049] Furthermore, in actual applications, the device can autonomously scan for available inter-network signals. When a new operator network is detected, the device can consider adding a supported operator. If the device needs to temporarily add a supported operator, it can obtain the new operator's information, authorize the new operator, and then add the new operator's information to the target operator range, thereby updating the target operator range.

[0050] When gradually switching the device network to each operator in the target operator range, this embodiment can use blockchain technology to achieve rapid identity authentication across operators, such as user identification based on SBT (Size Balanced Tree) soul-bound tokens, which shortens the authentication delay from hundreds of milliseconds to seconds, so that rapid switching of various operators can be achieved. And when switching, it can be gradually switched to each operator based on a preset priority. The priority is pre-set and reflects the switching order of each operator. In addition, the priority can also be set according to the device's usage habits and frequency of use of these operators. This embodiment will immediately perform the network detection step after each successful switch, so that the optimal operator can be screened out in subsequent steps.

[0051] Step S200: Detect the operation information of each operator and obtain the detection result.

[0052] When the network of the device is gradually switched to each operator in the target operator range, the operation information of each operator is detected until the operation information of all operators is detected, thereby obtaining the detection results.

[0053] In one implementation, step 200 of this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0054] Step S201: Detect the upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth of each operator to obtain the operation information;

[0055] Step S202: Record the numerical value corresponding to each piece of the operating information to obtain the detection result.

[0056] Specifically, this embodiment can detect the upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth of each operator. Since the upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth can reflect the network quality of the operator, after detecting the upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth of each operator, the operation information of the operator can be obtained. In this embodiment, the upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth can be detected as specific values. Therefore, this embodiment can obtain the detection result based on the value corresponding to the operation information of each operator, and this detection result can be used to screen the optimal operator.

[0057] Step S300: Determine the optimal operator based on the detection result, and switch the network to the optimal operator.

[0058] After obtaining the detection results, this embodiment can determine the optimal operator based on the detection results. The optimal operator is the operator with the best upload speed, download speed and network bandwidth in the detection results, and then switch the device's network to the optimal operator so that the device can use the optimal operator.

[0059] Specifically, when selecting the optimal operator, this embodiment can sort the upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth from high to low, and then select the operator with the highest upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth as the optimal operator. In actual applications, the same operator may not necessarily have the highest upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth. If there is no operator with the highest upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth, the operator with any two of the highest upload speed, download speed, and network bandwidth can be selected as the optimal operator. After switching to the optimal operator, this embodiment controls the network to continue using the optimal operator until the next time the network detection program is started and the optimal operator is re-detected.

[0060] In addition, after switching to the optimal operator, this embodiment also records the usage of the optimal operator to form usage record information. The usage record information includes information such as the duration and scenarios of use of the optimal operator. In other implementations, this embodiment can obtain usage record information when selecting the optimal operator, and then determine the operator used in the current usage scenario based on the usage record information. The optimal operator can be directly determined based on usage habits, making the entire process convenient and quick.

[0061] In summary, this embodiment first runs a network detection program, and based on the network detection program, switches the network to each operator in the target operator range one by one. Then, the operation information of each operator is detected to obtain a detection result. Finally, based on the detection result, the optimal operator is determined, and the network is switched to the optimal operator. This embodiment can reasonably evaluate which operator is the best based on the preset network detection program, without requiring the user to use additional detection tools or relevant professional knowledge. This allows the device to detect all supported operator networks, and based on the detection results, switch to the optimal operator network to work, thereby ensuring that the device can continuously and stably perform network communications.
