Incoming Call Protection via Operation Frequency Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users often unintentionally miss or hang up incoming calls due to frequent mobile phone usage, leading to poor user experience and potential misunderstandings, as existing technologies lack effective solutions for this issue.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that implement an incoming call protection mode, which determines the user's operation frequency to either delay or release incoming call signals, and prompt the user of missed calls when necessary, enhancing user control and experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the mobile phone operates normally without protection mode, then the incoming call is connected immediately, but the user may unwittingly hang up or miss the call due to frequent operations
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary detection of user operation frequency before the incoming call is connected. When high-frequency operations are detected, the system proactively activates protection mode to delay the incoming call, preventing the user from unwittingly hanging up or missing the call due to ongoing operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The protection mode serves as an intermediary mechanism between the incoming call signal and the user's operation state. It introduces a delay buffer that allows the system to monitor whether the user has completed frequent operations before fully connecting the call, thus resolving the conflict between call reliability and operation convenience.
2Reliability
If the incoming call is delayed to protect against unwitting hanging up, then call reliability improves, but call connection time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The protection mode is dynamically activated or deactivated based on real-time detection of user operation frequency. When high-frequency operations are detected, the mode is activated to delay the call; when operations are infrequent, the mode remains inactive, allowing immediate call connection. This dynamic adjustment minimizes unnecessary delays while maintaining reliability when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter of call connection timing based on the detected operation frequency. Instead of a fixed delay, the connection time parameter is adjusted dynamically: calls are delayed only when operation frequency exceeds a threshold, otherwise they connect immediately, thus reducing overall time loss while maintaining reliability.
3Ease of operation
If the incoming call protection mode is added, then user experience improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects user operation frequency and determines whether to activate protection mode without requiring user intervention. The terminal itself services the protection need by monitoring its own operation state and autonomously deciding when to delay incoming calls, simplifying the user interface while maintaining enhanced functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The operation frequency detection mechanism serves multiple functions: it not only triggers the protection mode for incoming calls but also provides the basis for determining mode activation. This multi-functional use of the detection system reduces the need for separate complex control mechanisms, thereby limiting the increase in device complexity.

AI summary
The present invention discloses a method, a device, and a terminal for implementing incoming call protection. The method includes: determining, according to a frequency for operating a terminal by a user, whether a status of an incoming call protection mode is on or off; if the incoming call protection mode is on, when an incoming call signal arrives, delaying the incoming call signal; and if the incoming call protection mode is off, when an incoming call signal has been delayed and the incoming call signal still continues, releasing the incoming call signal, and when an incoming call signal has been delayed, but the incoming call signal becomes weak or has disappeared, prompting the user that there is a missed call. According to the present invention, a problem of unwittingly connecting or hanging up an incoming call by a user is effectively solved.
