Dynamic MIPI Frequency Adjustment for RF Interference Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Full-screen mobile phones face radio frequency interference issues due to the operating frequency of the mobile industry processor interface (MIPI) of the display screen, which affects the stability of various modules, and current hardware upgrades are costly and provide limited improvement.
Innovation Solution
A method to dynamically adjust the MIPI operating frequency of the display screen to a second frequency that causes less interference with the modem, determined by comparing interference levels and adjusting the frequency in real-time when the device is in a call state, without altering the hardware design.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the MIPI operating frequency is fixed at a specific value for display screen data transmission, then data transmission efficiency is improved, but electromagnetic interference with communication modules and other functions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic frequency adjustment of the MIPI interface by introducing a frequency management module that monitors electromagnetic interference levels and adjusts the MIPI operating frequency in real-time. Instead of using a fixed frequency, the system dynamically switches between multiple predefined frequency values (e.g., 500MHz, 550MHz, 600MHz) based on detected interference conditions, thereby resolving the contradiction between maintaining efficient data transmission and avoiding electromagnetic interference with communication modules.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the operating parameter (frequency) of the MIPI interface from a fixed value to a variable that can be adjusted based on system conditions. The frequency management module maintains a set of candidate frequency values and selects appropriate frequencies by changing this key parameter, allowing the system to optimize both data transmission efficiency and electromagnetic compatibility under different operating conditions.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If hardware upgrades are implemented to reduce electromagnetic interference, then interference reduction effect is achieved, but device cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent avoids hardware modifications by changing the operating parameters (frequency values) of the existing MIPI interface. The frequency management module uses software-based frequency selection from a predefined set of values to reduce electromagnetic interference, eliminating the need for costly hardware upgrades while achieving the desired interference reduction effect.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical/hardware approach (hardware upgrades) with a software-based solution (frequency management module that adjusts operating parameters). This substitution allows interference reduction to be achieved through software control of the MIPI frequency rather than through physical hardware modifications, thereby reducing device cost.
3Reliability
If the MIPI frequency is adjusted to reduce interference with modem, then communication stability is improved, but display data transmission performance may deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic frequency adjustment mechanism where the MIPI operating frequency is continuously monitored and adjusted based on real-time electromagnetic interference conditions. The frequency management module switches between multiple predefined frequency values to optimize both communication stability and display transmission performance, ensuring that neither function suffers significant degradation under different operating conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses a set of predefined frequency values that are carefully selected to balance the needs of both MIPI data transmission and modem communication. By having multiple candidate frequencies available, the system can choose the most appropriate frequency for current conditions, applying partial adjustments rather than extreme changes that would severely impact either function.

AI summary
A method for electromagnetic interference control, an electronic device, and a storage medium are provided. A target operating frequency of a modem is obtained, in condition of a display screen being in a screen-on state, in response to an electronic device being in a call state. A first mobile industry processor interface (MIPI) operating frequency of an MIPI of the display screen is obtained. A second MIPI operating frequency corresponding to the call state is determined in response to determining the target operating frequency being interfered based on the first MIPI operating frequency. An MIPI operating frequency of the display screen is adjusted to the second MIPI operating frequency.
