[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and their technical features can be combined with each other.

[0025] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the steps of a call-based game interaction method according to an embodiment of this application, as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the call-based game interaction method applied to a game interaction platform includes the following steps: Step 101: In response to the call connection between the first user terminal and the second user terminal, obtain the candidate game list and send the candidate game list to the first user terminal and the second user terminal.

[0026] Both the first and second user terminals are registered on the game interaction platform. The call connection between the first and second user terminals can be established by the game interaction platform responding to a call request received from the first user terminal, sending the request to the second user terminal, and then the game interaction platform responding to a call confirmation message from the second user terminal, thus establishing the call between the first and second user terminals. Specifically, the game interaction platform can establish a dedicated IMS data channel for 5G New Calls, supporting the real-time transmission of interactive data other than voice and video between the first and second user terminals on top of the native call interface. 5G New Calls is a new feature based on 5G VoNR (Voice over New Radio) technology, offering video-based, intelligent, and user-friendly interactive capabilities. After the first and second user terminals establish a call, the game interaction platform will send a list of candidate games to both terminals. Specifically, the game interaction platform can achieve this by establishing a Bootstrap Data Channel (BDC) and loading a game interaction mini-program on the native call interface of both the first and second user terminals.

[0027] Step 102: In response to receiving a game selection instruction from the first user terminal, determine the target game to be selected.

[0028] The first user terminal responds to the user's triggering of the game button corresponding to the target game in the candidate game list, generates a game selection command, and sends the game selection command to the game interaction platform. The game interaction platform then determines the selected target game based on the game selection command.

[0029] Step 103: Send game invitation information to the second user terminal according to the target game.

[0030] After the game interaction platform identifies the target game, it will send a game invitation message to the second user terminal.

[0031] Step 104: In response to receiving the game participation confirmation information sent by the second user terminal for the game invitation information, determine the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the game type of the target game, and connect the first user terminal and the second user terminal based on the target game channel.

[0032] The second user terminal, upon receiving a list of candidate games from the game interaction platform, displays the list on a second display interface. After the user triggers the confirmation button, the second display interface generates game participation confirmation information and then sends this information to the game interaction platform. Upon receiving the confirmation information, the game interaction platform determines the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the target game's type and connects the first and second user terminals based on this target game channel.

[0033] Step 105: Transmit game interaction data between the first user terminal and the second user terminal through the target game channel, so that the first user terminal and the second user terminal can interact with the target game.

[0034] Once the target game channel is established, the first user terminal and the second user terminal can transmit the corresponding game interaction data. The game interaction platform transmits the game interaction data between the first user terminal and the second user terminal through the target game channel. The game interaction data may include game status data, operation commands, etc.

[0035] In this embodiment, by sending a list of candidate games to a first user terminal and a second user terminal, both terminals can select a target game without downloading application software. A target game channel is established based on the game type, and through differentiated channel design, the established target game channel can be more adapted to the user's selected target game.

[0036] In one possible implementation, in response to receiving a game participation confirmation message from a second user terminal regarding the game invitation information, the process of determining the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the game type of the target game may further include: In response to receiving a game participation confirmation message from the second user terminal based on the game invitation information, the system parses the target game to obtain its data transmission rate requirement. If the data transmission rate requirement indicates that the data transmission rate required by the target game is less than or equal to a rate threshold, the system determines the first application data channel corresponding to the lightweight game among multiple game channels as the target game channel, and sends the session negotiation parameters of the target game channel to the first user terminal and the second user terminal.

[0037] After receiving the game participation confirmation information, the game interaction platform first parses the target game to obtain its data transmission rate requirements. If the target game's data transmission rate requirement is less than or equal to a rate threshold (e.g., a rate threshold of 10 Mbps and a target game's data transmission rate requirement of 9 Mbps), it indicates that the target game is a lightweight game. In this case, only the first application data channel corresponding to the lightweight game among multiple game channels needs to be identified as the target game channel. To establish the target game channel, a data channel negotiation process needs to be initiated, sending the session negotiation parameters of the target game channel to the first user terminal and the second user terminal. The session negotiation parameters for the target game channel are then confirmed with the first and second user terminals to successfully establish the target game channel. The target game channel can request high-priority QoS (Quality of Service).

[0038] In this embodiment, when the data transmission rate requirement of the target game is less than or equal to the rate threshold, the first application data channel corresponding to the lightweight game among multiple game channels is determined as the target game channel. This allows for the use of a high-priority target game channel to carry lightweight casual games, eliminating the need for a complex slice resource application process. This enables games to open and play instantly, ensuring low latency and high reliability for lightweight target games.

[0039] In one possible implementation, if the data transmission rate requirement indicates that the data transmission rate required by the target game is greater than the rate threshold, then in response to receiving a game channel application carrying the target service identifier of the target game from the first user terminal and the second user terminal, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier among the multiple game channels is determined as the target game channel.

[0040] If the data transmission rate requirement of the target game exceeds the rate threshold (e.g., the threshold is 10Mbps, and the target game requires 20Mbps), it indicates that the target game has requirements for high speed, low latency, and high reliability, such as Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) games. In this case, a standard lightweight game channel is insufficient to guarantee the interactivity of such games. The game interaction platform needs to initiate a dedicated network slice application to the 5G core network slice management function unit to request a dedicated game channel for the target game. During the application process, the application data channel negotiation process is not triggered, and no data channel establishment request is initiated. Upon receiving notification from the slice management function unit that the slice resource availability and user permission verification have passed, the game interaction platform confirms that the network side supports the dedicated game channel application for the target game. Subsequently, upon receiving game channel applications carrying the target service identifier of the target game from the first user terminal and the second user terminal, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier among multiple game channels is identified as the target game channel. The game channel application is generated by the first user terminal and the second user terminal and sent to the game interaction platform during the loading process of the target game.

[0041] In this embodiment of the application, for games with high speed, low latency, and high reliability requirements, the problem of transmission lag in traditional general channels can be solved by establishing a dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier, thereby improving the user experience.

[0042] In one possible implementation, the specific process of identifying the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier among multiple game channels as the target game channel in response to receiving a game channel application carrying the target service identifier from a first user terminal and a second user terminal can be as follows: In response to receiving a game channel application carrying the target service identifier from a first user terminal and a second user terminal, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier is forwarded to the radio access network and core network elements. In response to receiving a dedicated resource allocation completion notification from the radio access network and core network elements, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier is identified as the target game channel, wherein the dedicated resource allocation completion notification includes at least the IP address and port number of the dedicated game channel.

[0043] In response to receiving a game channel application carrying a target service identifier for the target game from both the first and second user terminals, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier is forwarded to the 5G New Radio (NR) radio access network and core network elements. The system awaits feedback from the NR and core network elements regarding the completion of dedicated resource allocation. This feedback includes parameters such as the dedicated channel's IP address, port number, QoS priority, and security key. Subsequently, in response to receiving the dedicated resource allocation completion notification from the NR and core network elements, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier is designated as the target game channel. The creation and security isolation configuration of the dedicated game channel (such as network slicing isolation, data encryption, and access control) are completed to ensure physical / logical isolation between game data and other service data. Connection parameters for the dedicated game channel are sent to both the first and second user terminals, enabling them to establish an end-to-end game data transmission link.

[0044] In this embodiment, in response to receiving a game channel application carrying a target service identifier of the target game from a first user terminal and a second user terminal, the dedicated game channel corresponding to the target service identifier is forwarded to the wireless access network and core network elements. This allows the target game channel to be automatically determined during game loading without manual user operation or waiting for channel switching, enabling instant play of heavy games while maintaining a consistent experience with lightweight games.

[0045] In one possible implementation, before responding to the game channel application carrying the target service identifier of the target game received from the first user terminal and the second user terminal, a dedicated network slice application can also be initiated to the slice management function unit. The dedicated network slice application includes the target game's service identifier, bandwidth requirements, latency requirements, and reliability indicators.

[0046] In response to receiving a notification that slice resources are available from the slice management function unit, a game resource loading instruction is sent to the first user terminal and the second user terminal, causing the first user terminal and the second user terminal to start loading the resource package of the target game.

[0047] Before responding to game channel requests carrying the target game's service identifier from the first and second user terminals, a standardized dedicated network slice request can be generated first. This dedicated network slice request includes the target game's service identifier (S-NSSAI, containing slice / service type SST and slice distinguisher SD), bandwidth requirements, latency requirements, and reliability indicators (including uplink / downlink peak bandwidth, uplink / downlink guaranteed bandwidth, end-to-end maximum one-way latency, and maximum packet loss rate). Then, a dedicated network slice request is initiated to the slice management function unit. The slice management function unit performs slice selection and resource evaluation. The slice request message can also carry a flag indicating that application data channel negotiation will not be triggered. After the slice management function unit confirms that the slice resources are available, a game resource loading command is sent to the first and second user terminals, causing them to begin loading the target game's resource package. Simultaneously, a game channel request listening port is opened, specifically to receive game channel requests carrying the target game's service identifier from the first and second user terminals. If no request is received from either terminal after a certain time (e.g., 10 seconds), the reserved slice resources are automatically released, and a game loading failure message is sent to both terminals.

[0048] In this embodiment, by initiating a dedicated network slice application to the slice management function unit before receiving the game channel application, and triggering the terminal to load game resources when slice resources are available, dedicated network resources matching bandwidth requirements, latency requirements, and reliability indicators can be reserved in advance for target games with high data rate demands. This avoids stuttering and startup failures caused by network resource allocation delays or contention during the game startup phase. Furthermore, adopting the method of reserving resources first and then establishing channels avoids signaling overhead and resource waste caused by establishing invalid data channels, achieving precise and efficient allocation of network resources, ensuring the stable and smooth operation of high-speed, low-latency games, and improving the overall game interaction experience.

[0049] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: in response to receiving a call interruption command from either the first user terminal or the second user terminal, releasing the network resources occupied by the first user terminal and the second user terminal; and sending an interface restoration command to the first user terminal and the second user terminal, causing the first user terminal and the second user terminal to restore their display interface to the initial interface in response to receiving the interface restoration command.

[0050] When either the first user terminal or the second user terminal needs to hang up the call, the user can trigger the call end button on the display interface to generate a call interruption command on the corresponding user terminal. This call interruption command will also be sent to the game interaction platform by the corresponding user terminal. Upon receiving the call interruption command, the game interaction platform will immediately release the network resources occupied by both parties in the call and issue an interface restoration command. Upon receiving the interface restoration command, the first user terminal and the second user terminal will restore the display interface to the initial interface.

[0051] In this embodiment of the application, by responding to a call interruption command sent by either the first user terminal or the second user terminal, the network resources occupied by the first user terminal and the second user terminal are released, thereby avoiding excessive network resource occupation.

[0052] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of the steps of a call-based game interaction method according to another embodiment of this application, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the call-based game interaction method applied to the first user terminal includes the following steps: Step 201: In response to receiving the candidate game list sent by the game interaction platform, display the candidate game list on the first display interface.

[0053] The game interaction platform will send candidate game lists to the first user terminal and the second user terminal respectively. After receiving the candidate game list sent by the game interaction platform, the first user terminal will display the candidate game list on the first display interface included in the first user terminal.

[0054] Step 202: In response to the user triggering the game button corresponding to the target game in the candidate game list, generate a game selection command and send the game selection command to the game interaction platform.

[0055] After a user triggers the game button corresponding to the target game in the candidate game list, the first user terminal, as the initiator, generates a game selection command and sends it to the game interaction platform. The game interaction platform then determines the selected target game based on the command. After determining the selected target game, the game interaction platform sends a game invitation message to the second user terminal. The second user terminal, upon receiving the candidate game list from the game interaction platform, displays the list on a second display interface. After the user triggers the confirmation button, the second display interface generates game participation confirmation information and sends it to the game interaction platform. Upon receiving the game participation confirmation information, the game interaction platform determines the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the target game's game type and connects the first and second user terminals based on this target game channel.

[0056] Step 203: Interact with the target game through the target game channel established by the game interaction platform and the second user terminal.

[0057] Once the target game channel is established, the first user terminal and the second user terminal can transmit the corresponding game interaction data. The game interaction platform transmits the game interaction data between the first user terminal and the second user terminal through the target game channel. The game interaction data may include game status data, operation commands, etc.

[0058] In this embodiment, the game interaction platform sends a list of candidate games to a first user terminal and a second user terminal, enabling both terminals to select a target game without downloading application software. A target game channel is established based on the game type, and through differentiated channel design, the established target game channel is more suitable for the user's selected target game.

[0059] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the steps of a call-based game interaction method according to another embodiment of this application, as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the call-based game interaction method applied to the second user terminal includes the following steps: Step 301: In response to receiving the candidate game list from the game interaction platform, display the candidate game list on the second display interface.

[0060] The game interaction platform will send candidate game lists to the first user terminal and the second user terminal respectively. After receiving the candidate game list sent by the game interaction platform, the second user terminal will display the candidate game list on the second display interface included in the second user terminal.

[0061] Step 302: In response to receiving a game invitation message from the game interaction platform, display the game invitation message on the second display interface.

[0062] The first user terminal, acting as the initiator, generates a game selection command and sends it to the game interaction platform. The platform then determines the selected target game based on this command. After determining the target game, the platform sends a game invitation to the second user terminal. The second user terminal, as the recipient, responds by displaying the game invitation in its second display interface.

[0063] Step 303: In response to the user triggering the confirmation button, generate game participation confirmation information and send the game participation confirmation information to the game interaction platform.

[0064] If a user wishes to participate in a game invitation initiated by the first user terminal, a confirmation button will be simultaneously displayed on the second display interface while the game invitation information is being shown. The second user terminal will then generate a game participation confirmation message and send it to the game interaction platform.

[0065] Step 304: Interact with the first user terminal on the target game through the target game channel established by the game interaction platform.

[0066] After receiving the game participation confirmation information, the game interaction platform determines the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the game type of the target game, and connects the first user terminal and the second user terminal based on the target game channel.

[0067] In this embodiment, the game interaction platform sends a list of candidate games to a first user terminal and a second user terminal, enabling both terminals to select a target game without downloading application software. A target game channel is established based on the game type, and through differentiated channel design, the established target game channel is more suitable for the user's selected target game.

[0068] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a game interaction platform according to an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the game interaction platform 400 includes: The acquisition module 401 is used to acquire a candidate game list in response to a call connection between the first user terminal and the second user terminal, and send the candidate game list to the first user terminal and the second user terminal. The determination module 402 is used to determine the selected target game in response to receiving a game selection instruction from the first user terminal. The invitation module 403 is used to send a game invitation message to the second user terminal based on the target game. The channel establishment module 404 is used to determine the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the game type of the target game in response to receiving a game participation confirmation message from the second user terminal in response to the game invitation message, and connect the first user terminal and the second user terminal based on the target game channel. The game interaction module 405 is used to transmit game interaction data between the first user terminal and the second user terminal through the target game channel, enabling the first user terminal and the second user terminal to interact with the target game.

[0069] After the first user terminal and the second user terminal establish a call, the acquisition module 401 acquires a candidate game list and sends the candidate game list to both the first and second user terminals respectively. The first user terminal, in response to the user triggering the game button corresponding to the target game in the candidate game list, generates a game selection command and sends the command to the game interaction platform 400. The determination module 402 determines the selected target game based on the game selection command. After the determination module 402 determines the selected target game, the invitation module 403 sends a game invitation message to the second user terminal. The second user terminal, in response to receiving the candidate game list from the game interaction platform, displays the candidate game list on a second display interface. After the user triggers the confirmation button, the second display interface generates game participation confirmation information and then sends it to the game interaction platform 400. Upon receiving the game participation confirmation information, the game interaction platform 400, through the channel establishment module 404, determines the target game channel from multiple game channels based on the target game's game type and connects the first user terminal and the second user terminal based on the target game channel. Once the target game channel is established, the first user terminal and the second user terminal can transmit the corresponding game interaction data. The game interaction module 405 transmits the game interaction data between the first user terminal and the second user terminal through the target game channel. The game interaction data may include game status data, operation instructions, etc.

[0070] In this embodiment, by sending a candidate game list to the first user terminal and the second user terminal through the acquisition module 401, the first user terminal and the second user terminal can select a target game without downloading application software. The channel establishment module 404 establishes a target game channel according to the game type of the target game. Through differentiated channel design, the established target game channel can be more adapted to the target game selected by the user.
