[0116] The realization of the objectives, functional features, and advantages of this application will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings have illustrated specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and textual descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to specific embodiments.

[0117] Implementation methods of this application

[0118] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0119] It should be noted that, in this document, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element, and / or, components, features, and elements with the same names in different embodiments of this application may have the same meaning or different meanings, the specific meaning of which must be determined by its interpretation in that specific embodiment or further in conjunction with the context of that specific embodiment.

[0120] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc., may be used herein to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are used only to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this document, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Depending on the context, the word "if," as used herein, may be interpreted as "when," "when," or "in response to determination." Furthermore, as used herein, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to also include the plural forms unless the context indicates otherwise. It should be further understood that the terms "comprising," "including," indicate the presence of the stated feature, step, operation, element, component, item, kind, and / or group, but do not exclude the presence, occurrence, or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, components, items, kinds, and / or groups. The terms "or," "and / or," "including at least one of the following," etc., as used in this application, may be interpreted as inclusive, or mean any one or any combination thereof. For example, "including at least one of the following: A, B, C" means "any one of the following: A; B; C; A and B; A and C; B and C; A and B and C." Similarly, "A, B, or C" or "A, B, and / or C" means "any one of the following: A; B; C; A and B; A and C; B and C; A and B and C." Exceptions to this definition only occur when the combination of elements, functions, steps, or operations is inherently mutually exclusive in some way.

[0121] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowcharts of this application's embodiments are shown sequentially according to the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least some of the steps in the figures may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages. These sub-steps or stages are not necessarily completed at the same time, but can be executed at different times, and their execution order is not necessarily sequential, but can be performed alternately or in turn with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.

[0122] Depending on the context, the words “if” or “suppose” as used here can be interpreted as “when” or “in response to determination” or “in response to detection.” Similarly, depending on the context, the phrases “if determination” or “if detection (of the stated condition or event)” can be interpreted as “when determination” or “in response to determination” or “when detection (of the stated condition or event)” or “in response to detection (of the stated condition or event).”

[0123] It should be noted that step designations such as S1 and S2 are used in this document for the purpose of more clearly and concisely describing the corresponding content, and do not constitute a substantial limitation on the order. In specific implementation, those skilled in the art may execute S2 first and then S1, etc., but these should all be within the protection scope of this application.

[0124] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0125] In the following description, the use of suffixes such as "module," "part," or "unit" to denote elements is solely for the purpose of illustrative purposes and has no specific meaning in itself. Therefore, "module," "part," or "unit" may be used interchangeably.

[0126] The communication equipment mentioned in this application may be a terminal device (such as a mobile phone) or a network device (such as a base station). The specific meaning needs to be clarified according to the context.

For example, the terminal devices described in this application may include smart terminal devices such as mobile phones, tablets, laptops, handheld computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), portable media players (PMPs), navigation devices, wearable devices, smart bracelets, pedometers, etc., as well as fixed terminal devices such as digital TVs and desktop computers.

[0128] The following description will use a mobile terminal as an example. Those skilled in the art will understand that, apart from elements specifically designed for mobile purposes, the construction according to the embodiments of this application can also be applied to fixed-type terminal devices.

[0129] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of the hardware structure of a mobile terminal implementing various embodiments of this application. The mobile terminal 100 may include: an RF (Radio Frequency) unit 101, a WiFi module 102, an audio output unit 103, an A / V (Audio / Video) input unit 104, a sensor 105, a display unit 106, a user input unit 107, an interface unit 108, a memory 109, a processor 110, and a power supply 111, etc. Those skilled in the art will understand that the mobile terminal structure shown in Figure 1 does not constitute a limitation on the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal may include more or fewer components than shown, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0130] The following section, with reference to Figure 1, provides a detailed description of each component of the mobile terminal:

[0131] The radio frequency unit 101 can be used for receiving and transmitting signals during information transmission or calls. Specifically, it receives downlink information from the base station and processes it with the processor 110; additionally, it transmits uplink data to the base station. Typically, the radio frequency unit 101 includes, but is not limited to, an antenna, at least one amplifier, a transceiver, a coupler, a low-noise amplifier, a duplexer, etc. And / or, the radio frequency unit 101 can also communicate wirelessly with networks and other devices.

[0132] WiFi is a short-range wireless transmission technology. Mobile terminals using WiFi module 102 can help users send and receive emails, browse web pages, and access streaming media, providing wireless broadband internet access. Although Figure 1 shows WiFi module 102, it is understood that it is not an essential component of the mobile terminal and can be omitted as needed without altering the essence of the invention.

[0133] The audio output unit 103 can convert audio data received by the radio frequency unit 101 or the WiFi module 102 or stored in the memory 109 into audio signals and output them as sound when the mobile terminal 100 is in call signal receiving mode, call mode, recording mode, voice recognition mode, broadcast receiving mode, or other modes. Furthermore, the audio output unit 103 can also provide audio output related to specific functions performed by the mobile terminal 100 (e.g., call signal receiving sound, message receiving sound, etc.). The audio output unit 103 may include a speaker, a buzzer, etc.

[0134] The A / V input unit 104 is used to receive audio or video signals. The A / V input unit 104 may include a graphics processing unit (GPU) 1041 and a microphone 1042. The GPU 1041 processes image data of still images or videos acquired by an image capture device (such as a camera) in video capture mode or image capture mode. The processed image frames can be displayed on the display unit 106. The image frames processed by the GPU 1041 can be stored in the memory 109 (or other storage medium) or transmitted via the radio frequency unit 101 or the WiFi module 102. The microphone 1042 can receive sound (audio data) in operating modes such as telephone call mode, recording mode, and voice recognition mode, and can process such sound into audio data. The processed audio (voice) data can be converted into a format that can be transmitted to a mobile communication base station via the radio frequency unit 101 in telephone call mode. The microphone 1042 can implement various types of noise cancellation (or suppression) algorithms to eliminate (or suppress) noise or interference generated during the reception and transmission of audio signals.

[0135] The mobile terminal 100 also includes at least one sensor 105, such as a light sensor, a motion sensor, and other sensors. Optionally, the light sensor includes an ambient light sensor and a proximity sensor. Optionally, the ambient light sensor can adjust the brightness of the display panel 1061 according to the ambient light level, and the proximity sensor can turn off the display panel 1061 and / or backlight when the mobile terminal 100 is moved to the ear. As a type of motion sensor, an accelerometer sensor can detect the magnitude of acceleration in various directions (generally three axes), and can detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when stationary. It can be used for applications that recognize the phone's posture (such as landscape / portrait switching, related games, magnetometer posture calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer, tapping), etc. Other sensors that may be configured in the phone, such as fingerprint sensors, pressure sensors, iris sensors, molecular sensors, gyroscopes, barometers, hygrometers, thermometers, and infrared sensors, will not be described in detail here.

[0136] The display unit 106 is used to display information input by the user or information provided to the user. The display unit 106 may include a display panel 1061, which may be configured in the form of a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), or the like.

[0137] User input unit 107 can be used to receive input numerical or character information, and generate key signal inputs related to user settings and function control of the mobile terminal. Optionally, user input unit 107 may include touch panel 1071 and other input devices 1072. Touch panel 1071, also known as touch screen, can collect touch operations on or near the user (such as operations performed by the user using a finger, stylus, or any suitable object or accessory on or near touch panel 1071), and drive corresponding connection devices according to a pre-set program. Touch panel 1071 may include two parts: touch detection device and touch controller. Optionally, touch detection device detects the user's touch position and the signal generated by the touch operation, and transmits the signal to touch controller; touch controller receives touch information from touch detection device, converts it into touch point coordinates, sends it to processor 110, and can receive and execute commands from processor 110. And / or, touch panel 1071 can be implemented using various types such as resistive, capacitive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave. In addition to the touch panel 1071, the user input unit 107 may also include other input devices 1072. Optionally, other input devices 1072 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following: physical keyboard, function keys (such as volume control buttons, power buttons, etc.), trackball, mouse, joystick, etc., without being specifically limited here.

[0138] Optionally, the touch panel 1071 may cover the display panel 1061.
