Solution Overview

Problem

Dual-SIM dual-standby mobile phones using a shared radio frequency system experience increased user access delays and communication failures, particularly in receiving important system signaling, leading to reduced user experience and waste of communication resources.

Innovation Solution

A method where a multi-SIM terminal generates conversion indication information upon detecting a network change and sends it to a base station, allowing the base station to adjust the communication state of the terminal accordingly, optimizing resource allocation and improving communication efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If a shared radio frequency system is used for dual-SIM dual-standby mobile phones, then cost is reduced and design requirements are simplified, but user access delay increases and communication failures occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveradio frequency system complexityVSAvoiduser access delay
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by having the terminal send a network conversion indication message to the network side before the actual network conversion occurs. This advance notification allows the network side to prepare resource allocation in advance, reducing the access delay that would otherwise occur during network switching. The terminal detects the need for network conversion and communicates this intention beforehand, enabling the network to pre-configure resources for the incoming call or data session.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Device complexity

If a shared radio frequency system is used for dual-SIM dual-standby mobile phones, then cost is reduced and design requirements are simplified, but communication reliability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveradio frequency system complexityVSAvoidcommunication reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback by establishing a communication loop between the terminal and the network side regarding network conversion events. The terminal monitors its operating network status and provides feedback to the network side through the network conversion indication message when a conversion is detected or about to occur. This feedback mechanism enables the network side to adjust resource allocation and communication parameters in response to the terminal's actual state, thereby maintaining communication reliability despite using a shared radio frequency system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If network conversion occurs frequently in dual-SIM dual-standby terminals, then network flexibility is improved, but communication resources are wasted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork adaptabilityVSAvoidcommunication resource waste
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by notifying the network side in advance of intended network conversions through the network conversion indication message. This allows the network side to optimize resource allocation decisions before conversions occur, avoiding unnecessary resource allocation and release cycles that would waste communication resources. The network can batch process conversion requests and maintain resources more efficiently when conversions are anticipated rather than reacting to each conversion event independently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

The embodiments of the present application disclose an information indication method and a related product. The method includes: if a conversion of an operating network is detected by a terminal, generating conversion indication information according to the conversion of the operating network, where the conversion indication information is used to indicate that an operating network conversion event occurs on the terminal; and sending the conversion indication information to a base station. The terminal sends the conversion indication information to the base station, so that the base station obtains information related to the conversion of the operating network in the terminal timely and on this basis, adjusts a communication resource, thereby a better configuration of the communication resource is finally achieved, and communication effects are improved for the terminal.
