The radio frequency circuit 70 is disposed in the casing, and the radio frequency circuit 70 may be disposed on the circuit board 40 . The RF circuit 70 includes a processing chip 71 , a first RF front-end module 72 , a first RF transceiver module 73 , a 4G modem 74 , a second RF front-end module 75 , a second RF transceiver module 76 and a 5G modem 77 .

The number of transceiver antennas is at least 4, which can be used to transmit 4G network signals and 5G network signals. .

The 4G system architecture includes a wireless side, and the wireless side refers to an LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term evolution) architecture. Transmission between modems 74 , that is, the electronic device 100 uses the LTE framework to implement LTE communication through the first radio frequency front-end module 72 , the first radio frequency transceiver module 73 and the 4G modem 74 .

In the 5G system architecture, according to the requirements of the 5G communication protocol, either the 5G system architecture of Standalone (SA) or the 5G system architecture of Non-Standalone (NSA) can be adopted. Among them, in the 5G network architecture of the NSA, the LTE (Long Term Evolution, Long Term Evolution) architecture in the 4G architecture and the NR (New Radio Access Technology in 3GPP, NR for short) are used for dual connection. That is, in the NSA's 5G network architecture, the electronic device 100 needs to transmit 5G network signals and 4G network signals at the same time. The 4G network signal is transmitted between the first radio frequency front-end module 72 , the first radio frequency transceiver module 73 and the 4G modem 74 , and the 5G network signal is transmitted between the second radio frequency front-end module 75 , the second radio frequency transceiver module 76 and the 5G modem 77 . flow between.

At this time, the above-mentioned 4G signal path and 5G signal path of the electronic device 100 are opened at the same time, and the power consumption of the electronic device 100 is higher than that in the LTE framework.

In the related art, there are two ways to add 5G signals in the non-independent networking: the first is blind addition, that is, after the electronic device supporting the 5G network is connected to the 4G network, it is determined whether the location of the electronic device is supported. In the location where the 4G/5G network is dual-connected, the base station determines whether the electronic device supports 5G network signals. If the conditions are met, it establishes a 5G network connection with the electronic device to provide 5G network services. This solution is simple to implement, but when the signal is not good, blind Adding a 5G network will lead to frequent disconnections, and due to repeated searches for 5G signals, the power consumption of electronic devices will increase, resulting in a poor user experience for users. The second is based on measurement report addition. The specific process is that if the blind addition conditions of the 5G network are met, the base station will configure a measurement event for the electronic device to trigger the electronic device to measure the 5G network signal neighbors. According to the measurement results reported by the electronic device, the base station selects the 5G network signal neighbors that meet the conditions to add. This solution considers the signal quality of 5G network signals, but does not consider the power of electronic equipment, actual use conditions, etc., and only uses the strength and quality of the signal as the basis for discrimination, which is relatively simple and cannot be adjusted according to the needs of users.

Referring to FIG. 4 , FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a scenario of a communication control method provided by an embodiment of the present application.

In this scenario, the RSRP value needs to be involved. RSRP is the reference signal received power. Specifically, the RSRP value is the linear average value of the received power (in watts) on the resource element (RE) carrying the reference signal over the measurement frequency bandwidth. , is one of the key parameters that can represent the wireless signal strength and one of the physical layer measurement requirements in a 4G or 5G network, and is the average value of the signal power received on all REs (resource elements) that carry the reference signal in a certain symbol. The larger the RSRP value, the better the 4G and 5G signal quality.

According to the measurement standard of RSRP value, the base station can judge whether the electronic device has the conditions to access 4G and 5G networks according to the RSRP return value returned by the electronic equipment. The RSRP value can not only judge whether the electronic equipment has the conditions to access 4G and 5G networks, but also At the same time, it also indicates the transmission power of the mobile phone. The smaller the RSRP, the greater the path loss from the electronic device to the base station. The electronic device needs more power to transmit signals. The greater the RSRP, the smaller the path loss from the electronic device to the base station. Signals require less power. Therefore, in order to reduce the power consumption of electronic devices when the power consumption of electronic devices is low, it is not desirable to still connect to the 5G network when the RSRP is small. Therefore, the RSRP return value can be adjusted according to the power consumption and the user’s power consumption habits, and the return value can be compared with the electronic device’s power consumption. The method of correlating the current power of the device with the user's power consumption habits. When the power is low, adjust the RSRP report value (5G network signal connection threshold) reported by the electronic device to the base station. When the power of the electronic device is low and the signal is poor, make Electronic devices are only connected when the 5G signal is good, which can effectively reduce the power consumption of electronic devices.

Specifically, please refer to FIG. 5 , which is a first flow chart of a communication control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The communication control method is applied to the above electronic device. The communication control method includes:

101. Acquire a first signal value currently received by an electronic device and a current power value.

Obtain the first signal value currently received by the electronic device, the first signal value may be the RSRP value of a non-5G signal, the RSRP value may be the RSRP value obtained by the current electronic device according to the base station signal test, or the electronic device may be returned according to the base station. The RSRP value obtained by the signal can obtain the current power value of the electronic device. The current power value of the electronic device can be obtained by detecting the battery. The current power value can be the remaining power value of the electronic device.

In some embodiments, before acquiring the current power value of the electronic device, the method further includes detecting whether the electronic device is in a charging state. When the electronic device is in a charging state, since the power problem does not need to be considered, the communication signal is directly transmitted through the 5G network, or According to user requirements, the transmission of communication signals is realized through a 2G network, a 3G network or a 4G network. When the electronic device is not in a charging state, since the power consumption of the electronic device needs to be considered, 101 is executed.

102. Calculate and obtain a signal connection threshold according to the current power value and the first signal value.

The signal connection threshold can be calculated according to the formula RSRPc=RSRP'-10log(B ^1/2 ), wherein RSRPc is the signal connection threshold, and the threshold can be understood as the signal return value reported by the electronic device to the base station, and the base station judges the signal according to the return value. Whether the electronic device has the conditions to connect to the 5G network, RSRP' can be the RSRP' value measured by the current electronic device based on the base station signal on the basis of the 4G network, and RSRP' can also obtain the RSRP' value returned by the base station for the electronic device. To measure the signal quality of the current 4G network of electronic equipment, B is the current power value of the electronic equipment. For example, when the electronic equipment measures the RSRP' value based on the base station signal on the basis of the 4G network, the RSRP' value is -96dBm, and the RSRP value of -96dBm belongs to the coverage. Poor level, under this signal quality, outdoor voice services can initiate calls, but the call success rate is low, the call drop rate is high, and indoor services are basically unable to initiate services. If the signal connection threshold (return value) is not adjusted, the 5G network is directly Search the network and connect to the 5G network in this poor situation. Since the signal is poor at the RSRP' value, that is, the electronic device is far away from the base station and the propagation loss is greater, the electronic device needs to transmit 5G signals. Power consumption, when the power consumption of electronic equipment is low, it will have a certain impact on the user, so it needs to be adjusted according to the current power B. When the current power is 50%, RSRP' is equal to -96dBm and B is equal to 0.5. Substituting into the formula, it can be calculated that RSRPc is equal to -94.5dBm, and -94.5dBm belongs to the general level of signal coverage.

103. Search for a 5G network signal, so that the base station obtains the first 5G signal value.

The 5G network signal is searched and connected to the base station, so that the base station obtains the first 5G signal value of the location of the electronic device, which is used to indicate the strength of the 5G signal at the current location of the electronic device. For example, the 5G signal at the current location of the electronic device measured -96dBm. -96dBm signal coverage is poor. The outdoor voice service can initiate calls, but the call success rate is low and the call drop rate is high. Indoor business is basically unable to initiate business.

104. Report the signal connection threshold to the base station, for when the first 5G signal value is greater than the signal connection threshold, realize the transmission of the communication signal through the 5G network; when the first 5G signal value is less than the signal connection threshold, through the 2G network or 3G network The network or 4G network realizes the transmission of communication signals.

Then, the RSRPc report value (signal connection threshold) is reported to the base station, and the RSRPc is reported to the base station. The RSRPc may also be reported to the base station after the signal connection threshold is calculated. For example, the connection threshold is -94.5dBm calculated in 102, and the first 5G signal is -96dBm measured in 103. The base station determines whether the electronic device has the conditions to connect to the 5G network according to the signal connection threshold and the current first 5G signal value of the electronic device, for example If the first 5G signal -96dBm is less than the connection threshold -94.5dBm, the electronic device does not have the conditions to connect to the 5G network. According to the user's needs, the transmission of communication signals can be realized through the 2G network, 3G network or 4G network. Only when the location of the electronic device is located When the 5G network signal is greater than the signal connection threshold, the 5G network is connected to a better signal environment. For example, when the 5G network signal at the location is greater than -94.5dBm, the 5G network is only connected to the 5G network when the signal coverage condition is good. Increase the RSRPc value required to connect to the 5G network, so that the electronic device can only connect to the 5G network when the battery is low and in a better signal environment, so as to reduce the transmission power of the electronic device signal and reduce the power consumption of the electronic device.

Please refer to FIG. 6 , which is a second flowchart of a communication control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The communication control method includes:

201. Acquire a first signal value currently received by the electronic device and a current power value.

Obtain the first signal value currently received by the electronic device, the first signal value can be the RSRP value, the RSRP value is the RSRP value measured by the current electronic device according to the base station signal, and obtain the current power value of the electronic device, the current power value of the electronic device can be By detecting the current power value obtained by the battery device, the power value may be the remaining power value of the electronic device.

In some embodiments, before acquiring the current power value of the electronic device, the method further includes detecting whether the electronic device is in a charging state. When the electronic device is in a charging state, since the power problem does not need to be considered, the communication signal is directly transmitted through the 5G network, or According to user requirements, the transmission of communication signals is realized according to the 2G network, 3G network or 4G network. When the electronic device is in a discharge state, since the power consumption of the electronic device needs to be considered, 101 is executed.

It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the first signal value may also be an RSRQ value or an SINR value. RSRQ (Reference Signal Receiving Quality) represents the receiving quality of the 4G network reference signal, and this measurement is mainly based on the signal quality. Different LTE candidate cells are ranked and this measurement is used as input for handover and cell reselection decisions. SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) refers to the ratio of the strength of the received useful signal to the strength of the received interference signal (noise and interference), which can be simply understood as "signal to noise ratio". ". Since both the RSRQ value and the SINR value are indirectly related to the power consumption of the electronic equipment, the method similar to the above-mentioned adjustment of the RSRP return value can be used for the RSRQ or SINR value, and the RSRQ or SINR value can be adjusted according to the power consumption and the user's power consumption habits. The method related to the current power of the electronic device and the user's power consumption habit (power mode) reduces the power consumption of the electronic device connected to 5G under the non-independent networking.

202. Obtain a first compensation value according to the user's electricity consumption habits.

The first compensation value is adjusted according to the user's electricity consumption habits, the first compensation value is used to adjust the signal connection threshold, and the initial value of the first compensation value may be 0. For example, by obtaining the user's historical power consumption data, the user's power consumption habits when the power is low can be obtained. If the user is used to having a large demand for data traffic when the power is low, the first compensation value can be increased. If the user is used to When there is no great demand for data flow when the battery is low, the first compensation value can be reduced. In some embodiments, the user's data flow value within a preset time period may be obtained according to the acquired historical data flow usage information of the user, and the corresponding first compensation value may be obtained according to the data flow value. For example, when the battery is low, but the user still needs to use high-volume data frequently for a long time, it is considered that the user can accept the battery life with low battery. If the threshold X1 and/or the duration is greater than the time threshold T1, it is considered that the user still has a large demand for data flow, and the compensation value A=1 is set. For another example, when the power is lower than 20%, it is assumed that the user uses a data flow greater than The preset flow threshold X2 and/or the duration is greater than the time threshold T2, where X2 is greater than X1 and T2 is greater than T1, it is considered that the user still has a large demand for data flow, and the compensation value A=2 is set. The numerical value can be specifically set according to the specific situation, and the setting of the compensation value should not be construed as a limitation on the present application.

In some embodiments, the model may be trained according to the acquired historical power consumption data of the user, and the first compensation value may be calculated according to the trained model and the current power consumption situation. For example, the user's historical power consumption data can be obtained, such as the user's corresponding power change rate at each time point, the battery consumption corresponding to each application, the frequency of using electronic devices, the traffic data rate of each application, and the usage frequency of each application, etc. The data of the user's power consumption habits, the collected historical power consumption data of the user is used to train the model, and the trained model is obtained, and the current power consumption of the user is calculated, such as the currently opened application type, the current open application data flow size, and the current power value. , taking the current electricity consumption as the input of the training model, to obtain the predicted user's future electricity consumption data, and obtain the corresponding first compensation value according to the predicted data. The model can be a neural network model or the like.

203. Calculate and obtain a signal connection threshold according to the first compensation value, the current power value, and the first signal value.

The signal connection threshold can be calculated according to the formula RSRPc=RSRP'-10log(B ^1/2 )-A, wherein RSRPc is the signal connection threshold, and the threshold can be understood as the signal return value reported by the electronic device to the base station, and the base station according to the return value To determine whether the electronic device has the conditions to connect to the 5G network, RSRP' is the RSRP' value measured by the current electronic device on the basis of the 4G network based on the base station signal. This value is used to measure the signal quality of the current electronic device's 4G network. The current battery level of the device. For example, when the RSRP' value measured by the electronic equipment based on the base station signal on the basis of the 4G network is -96dBm, and the RSRP value of -96dBm starts from the level of poor signal coverage, under this signal quality, the outdoor voice service can initiate calls, However, the call success rate is low, the call drop rate is high, and indoor services are basically unable to initiate services. If the return value is not adjusted, the 5G network is directly searched, and the 5G network is connected in this poor situation. The signal is poor, that is, the electronic device is far away from the base station, the electronic device needs more power for the transmission of 5G signals, the transmission frequency is higher, the power consumption of the electronic device is large, and the power consumption of the electronic device is too fast when the power of the electronic device is low. It will have a certain impact on the user, so it needs to be adjusted according to the current battery B. When the current battery is 50%, but if the user still needs to frequently use long-term high-traffic data, it is considered that the user can accept the low battery life. The signal connection threshold is adjusted according to the obtained compensation value. For example, according to 203, the first compensation threshold A is equal to 1, then RSRP' is equal to -96dBm, B is equal to 0.5, and A is equal to 1 into the formula, and RSRPc can be calculated to be equal to -95.5dBm. If the signal is not adjusted by the first compensation value The connection threshold is adjusted. The first compensation value takes the initial value of 0, and the RSRPc is calculated to obtain -94.5dBm, which belongs to the general situation of signal coverage. If the signal connection threshold is not adjusted by the first compensation value according to the user's electricity habits The 5G network can only be connected to the 5G network when the 5G network signal satisfies the signal coverage. By adjusting the connection threshold to -95.5dBm according to the user's power consumption habits, the user can still connect to the 5G network when the power of the electronic device is low. Adjust the connection threshold according to user needs to improve user experience.

204. Search for a 5G network signal, so that the base station obtains the first 5G signal value.

Search the network for 5G network signals and connect with the base station, so that the base station obtains the first 5G signal value of the location of the electronic device, which is used to indicate the strength of the 5G signal at the current location of the electronic device, such as the current location of the electronic device. The 5G signal at the location is -80dBm, and -80dBm is in good signal coverage. Various services can be initiated outdoors, and medium-rate data services can be obtained. Various services can be initiated indoors, and low-rate data services can be obtained.

205 Report the signal connection threshold to the base station, which is used to transmit the communication signal through the 5G network when the first 5G signal value is greater than the signal connection threshold; when the first 5G signal value is less than the signal connection threshold, use the 2G network or 3G network Or 4G network to realize the transmission of communication signals.

Then report the RSRPc report value (signal connection threshold) to the base station. For example, the connection threshold is -94.5dBm calculated in S203, and the first 5G signal is -80dBm as measured in 103. The base station is based on the signal connection threshold and the current first 5G of the electronic device. The signal value determines whether the electronic device has the conditions to connect to the 5G network. For example, if the first 5G signal -80dBm is greater than the connection threshold -98.5dBm, the electronic device has the conditions to connect to the 5G network, so that the electronic device can transmit communication signals through the 5G network. The electronic device is connected to the 5G network only when the power is low and the signal environment is better, so as to reduce the transmission power of the signal of the electronic device and reduce the power consumption of the electronic device.

Please refer to FIG. 7 , which is a third flowchart of a communication control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. After realizing the transmission of the communication signal of the electronic device through the 5G first signal, the communication control method further includes:

301. Periodically obtain the remaining power of the electronic device, and obtain the value of the second 5G signal currently connected.

After the electronic device is connected to the 5G network, the remaining power of the electronic device is periodically obtained. The period can be user-defined or a default value, and can also be set according to the power change rate of the electronic device. When the power of the electronic device changes rapidly When the battery is detected, the period of detecting the remaining power of the electronic device is shorter. It can be understood that when the user's power is lower than the threshold, the remaining power of the electronic device is monitored in real time, and the second 5G signal value of the currently connected 5G network corresponding to the remaining power value is obtained. 302. For example, after the electronic device is connected to the 5G network, the power of the electronic device is obtained every 1 minute. When the current power of the electronic device is 10%, the second 5G signal currently connected is -80dBm, and 302 is executed.

302. Calculate and obtain a signal disconnection threshold according to the remaining power value and the second 5G signal value.

According to the above formula, RSRPc=RSRP'-10log(B ^1/2 ) can calculate the signal disconnection threshold, RSRPc is the signal disconnection threshold, B is the corresponding remaining power value of 10%, and RSRP' is the second 5G currently connected The signal is -80dBm. According to the formula, the RSRPc signal disconnection threshold can be calculated as -75dBm.

303. Acquire a currently received third 5G signal value after a preset time.

Obtain the currently received third 5G signal value. After the preset time, when the 5G signal connected to the electronic device changes, obtain the received third 5G signal value again. For example, the electronic device is in a moving state, due to the distance between the electronic device and the base station. changes, so the received 5G signal value will change, for example, the third 5G signal value received again is -78dBm.

304. Report the signal disconnection threshold to the base station, for when the third 5G signal is less than the signal disconnection threshold, realize the transmission of the communication signal through the 2G network, 3G network or 4G network, and when the third 5G signal is greater than the signal disconnection threshold When the 5G signal is used, the transmission of the communication signal of the electronic device is realized.

Since the power has changed, the signal disconnection threshold needs to be calculated. The base station needs to determine whether the electronic device still has the conditions to connect to the 5G network according to the third 5G signal connected by the electronic device and the signal disconnection threshold reported by the electronic device, that is, the third 5G network. When the signal is less than the signal disconnection threshold, it means that the current 5G network signal connected to the electronic device does not meet the conditions for 5G network connection, then the electronic device is disconnected from the 5G network, and the communication signal is transmitted through the 2G network, 3G network or 4G network. , when the third 5G signal is greater than the signal disconnection threshold, it means that the signal quality of the 5G network currently connected to the electronic device is good, and the connection conditions of the 5G network are met, and the transmission of the communication signal of the electronic device is realized through the 5G signal. For example, if the signal disconnection threshold is calculated to be -75dBm, and the third 5G signal value is -78dBm, the 5G network signal connected to the electronic device does not meet the conditions for connecting to the 5G network, so the 5G network is disconnected to reduce the power consumption of the electronic device.

In some embodiments, the signal disconnection threshold may also be calculated according to the periodically obtained remaining power value, the second 5G signal value and the third compensation value. Adjust the signal disconnect threshold according to user needs.

In some embodiments, after the electronic device is connected to the 5G network, since the electronic device is in a moving state, the distance from the base station will change, so the 5G network signal received by the electronic device will fluctuate, so a signal fluctuation threshold needs to be set , to avoid that when the fourth 5G signal received by the electronic device is at the signal connection threshold or the signal disconnection threshold fluctuates up and down, the electronic device will continuously connect to or disconnect from the 5G network. Therefore, the second compensation value can be obtained; the signal stability threshold is calculated according to the signal connection threshold and the second compensation value; the fourth 5G signal value of the current connection is obtained after a preset time; the signal stability threshold is reported to the base station for use when the first 4. When the 5G signal is less than the signal connection threshold and greater than the signal stability threshold, the communication signal is transmitted through the 5G network. When the second 5G signal is less than the signal stability threshold, the communication signal is transmitted through the 2G network or 3G network or 4G network. The second compensation value can be set according to user requirements or signal fluctuations. The signal fluctuation threshold is calculated according to the formula RSRPr=RSRPc-C, where RSRPr is the signal fluctuation threshold, RSRPc is the signal connection threshold, and C is the second compensation value, when the signal connection threshold is calculated to be -98.5dBm, when C is 1, the signal fluctuation threshold is -99.5dBm, then the fourth 5G signal obtained after the preset time is -98.6dBm, and the battery is not too large The fourth 5G signal value of -98.6dBm is smaller than the signal connection threshold of -98.5dBm, but it is greater than the signal fluctuation threshold of -99.5dBm, so it is still connected to the 5G network of the current electronic device, which can avoid the fluctuation of the 5G signal of the electronic device. The ping-pong effect of repeatedly connecting and disconnecting the 5G network results in an increase in the power consumption of electronic devices.

In some embodiments, after acquiring the first signal value currently received by the electronic device and the current battery level value, the method further includes acquiring a battery level threshold value, and when the current battery level value of the electronic device is less than the battery level threshold value, perform steps 102-104, or perform steps From 202 to 205, for example, the current power value of the electronic device is 90%, and 90% of the power is still relatively sufficient for the electronic device. There is no need to consider the power consumption of the electronic device connected to 5G. The power threshold can be customized by the user. It can also be set according to the user's power consumption habits, and the power threshold can be 50%, and the subsequent steps are performed when the current power of the electronic device is less than 50%.

In some embodiments, after searching for a 5G network signal so that the base station obtains the first 5G signal value, the method further includes obtaining a signal threshold of the 5G network signal, and when the obtained first 5G signal value is less than the signal threshold, performing the step 104 or perform step 205, for example, obtain the first 5G signal value of -65dBm, in a situation where the signal coverage is very good, do not consider the distance between the electronic device and the base station to cause the problem of the transmit signal power of the electronic device, therefore, the signal threshold can be - 60dBm, and the subsequent steps are only performed when the first 5G signal value is less than the signal threshold.

It can be understood that the values of the above battery threshold and signal threshold can be set according to user requirements or actual conditions, and the size of the battery threshold and signal threshold should not be construed as a limitation on the present application.

That is, through the embodiments provided in this application, a method for adjusting the signal connection threshold is proposed, in which the signal connection threshold is correlated with the current power of the electronic device and the user's power consumption habits, and when the power is low, the signal connection threshold of the 5G network is adjusted. , When the power of the electronic device is low and the signal is poor, making the electronic device connect when the 5G signal is in a good condition can effectively reduce the power consumption of the electronic device.
