Multi-Channel Terminal Service Processing for Concurrent Communications
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication technologies can only maintain one active communication channel at a time, which limits users' ability to handle multiple simultaneous calls or services, negatively impacting user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for establishing multiple service channels based on a subscriber identity card, allowing simultaneous active communication on multiple channels, such as voice and video services, using the same service access mode and data channel, with the first channel remaining active while the second is established.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the terminal maintains only one active communication channel at a time, then the communication control is simple and stable, but the user cannot handle multiple simultaneous calls or services
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the communication system into multiple independent service channels (first service channel, second service channel, etc.) that can operate simultaneously. Each channel is managed separately with its own control logic, allowing multiple calls or services to be handled in parallel without interfering with each other, thus enabling multi-channel communication capability while maintaining manageable complexity through modular channel management
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal is designed to support multiple service channels that can handle different types of communications (voice calls, video calls, data services) simultaneously using the same underlying infrastructure. The communication management module provides universal control mechanisms that work across different channel types and service modes, enabling the system to perform multiple functions through a unified multi-channel framework
2Adaptability or versatility
If the terminal accepts a new phone call request during an ongoing communication, then the user's communication demand is met, but the existing communication must be held which affects user experience
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates separate service channels for different communications, so when a new call request is received, the system can allocate a second service channel instead of interrupting or holding the first communication. This segmentation allows concurrent communications to proceed independently on different channels, meeting user demand for multiple simultaneous calls while maintaining seamless operation of existing communications
Solution Approach 2:
The communication management module acts as an intermediary that receives service requests and intelligently allocates appropriate service channels. When a new communication request arrives during an ongoing call, the management module mediates by assigning the new request to an available channel while preserving the existing communication unchanged, thus facilitating concurrent communications without disrupting user experience
3Quantity of substance
If multiple service channels are established based on the same subscriber identity card, then multi-channel communication is enabled, but the service access management becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent establishes multiple service channels (first service channel, second service channel) that are logically segmented and independently managed. Each channel can be controlled separately with its own access management policies, allowing the system to support multiple active channels based on the same subscriber identity card while maintaining manageable complexity through independent channel control mechanisms
Solution Approach 2:
The service access management module is designed to handle multiple service channels universally, using the same subscriber identity card for authentication and access control across all channels. The management module provides unified control mechanisms that work consistently across different channel types and access scenarios, enabling multi-channel support without proportionally increasing management complexity

AI summary
A method and device for processing services of a multi-channel terminal are provided. The method includes: receiving a service request corresponding to a current subscriber identity card, when the current subscriber identity card is using a first service channel to communicate; establishing a second service channel to communicate, to respond to the service request, wherein the first service channel and the second service channel are both established based on the current subscriber identity card. By the method, the user's demand for implementing two or more routes of communication at the same time can be satisfied, and the user's experience is optimized greatly.
