Detailed ways

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

The terms "first", "second" and the like in the description and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It is to be understood that data so used may be interchanged under appropriate circumstances so that embodiments of the application can be practiced in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are usually one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object may be one or more than one. In addition, "and/or" in the description and claims indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

The calling method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

As shown in FIG. 1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a calling method, and the method may include the following steps 101 to 103 .

Step 101: The electronic device detects the service status of a first SIM card in at least one SIM card.

Optionally, a subscriber identity module (SIM) is a network access credential of an electronic device user, referred to as a SIM card. Network systems (eg, global system for mobile communications (GSM), code division multiple access (CDMA), wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA)) through the SIM card To identify the user identity, the same SIM card can be used in different electronic devices, and an electronic device can use multiple SIM cards if the hardware functions are available.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a network architecture of a brand-new multimedia service form. Abbreviation, IMS. IMS can be used by a variety of networks based on registration. The above-mentioned IMS registration information includes the SIM card having IMS capabilities and the services that are allowed to be used, and the like. For example, a voice service with long term evolution (voice over long term evolution, VoLTE), a voice service based on a wireless local area network (voice over wireless fidelity, VoWIFI), etc. When the SIM card is inserted into the electronic device, the electronic device can initiate an IMS network registration process. Specifically, when the SIM card inserted in the electronic device is a SIM card with IMS capabilities (eg, VoLTE or VoWIFI), the call module in the electronic device can initiate an IMS network attachment and registration process.

It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application detects the registration information of the IMS of the first SIM card, which is mainly used to determine whether the first SIM card is allowed to use the VoLTE or VoWIFI service.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the service status of a SIM card (eg, the first SIM card) includes two statuses: with IMS service and without IMS service. Specifically, having an IMS service means that the SIM card can initiate a call request based on the IMS, for example, is allowed to initiate a call request by using the VoLTE or VoWIFI service. No IMS service means that the SIM card cannot initiate a call request based on IMS. When the network signal is good, VoLTE or VoWIFI can establish a call more quickly.

It should be noted that, for the above-mentioned detection method for detecting the service status of the SIM card, reference may be made to the related art, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned at least one SIM card may also include other SIM cards other than the first SIM card, such as the third SIM card in the following steps. For the execution manner in the case where at least one SIM card is multi-card, reference may be made to the following steps 112 to 114, which will not be repeated here.

Step 102: In the case that the first SIM card has the IMS service, use the first SIM card to initiate a call request through the IMS.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, initiating a call request means that the electronic device can use the first SIM card to initiate a call request to the emergency call number through the IMS. The emergency call number is the number of the called party, for example, numbers such as 110, 120, and 119 dialed for initiating an emergency call.

It should be noted that, for the above-mentioned specific process of initiating a call request by using the first SIM card through the IMS, reference is made to the related art, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application.

Step 103: In the case that the first SIM card has no IMS service, determine the target access network according to the wireless access type of the first SIM card, and use the first SIM card to initiate a call request through the target access network.

Wherein, the above-mentioned target access network is a network associated with the wireless access type of the first SIM card.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned target access network is a network associated with the wireless access type of the first SIM card. Specifically, it includes the following two types: the first type, a network corresponding to the wireless access type of the first SIM card (ie, the following first network); the second type, the first SIM card other than the first network can access other network (ie, the second network described below). The wireless access type of the SIM card can directly determine the corresponding first network. For example, if the SIM card is a mobile network, the first network can only be GSM.

Exemplarily, assuming that the first SIM card is a mobile network, the first network is GSM, the second network is CDMA and WCDMA, and these three networks are all target access networks. Assuming that the first SIM card is a China Unicom network, then the first network is WCDMA, the second network is CDMA and GSM, and these three networks are also target access networks.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, when there are multiple access networks, the target access network may be determined according to a preset sequence. The preset order can be any of the following: 1. The first network has a higher priority than the second network and is used first; 2. The multiple second networks can be sorted according to network signal strength, network signal stability, etc. Access in turn. Exemplarily, a possible way of determining the target access network is: determining the first network as the target access network, or determining the second network with the highest signal strength as the target access network.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, in the case that the electronic device successfully initiates a call by performing the above step 102 or step 103, the following step 104 is performed.

Step 104, the electronic device establishes an emergency call.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, after the electronic device establishes an emergency call based on any network or line in the embodiment of the present application, the user can send rescue information, make a rescue call, etc. through the established emergency call channel.

Optionally, the server may parse the economic call request of the electronic device to obtain the first sub-information and the second sub-information. The first sub-information includes the number of the electronic device (ie, the calling number) and the instance identifier; the second sub-information includes the emergency call number (ie, the called number) and the location information of the electronic device corresponding to the calling number. In this way, the location of the user can be quickly determined, which is convenient for rescue.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, in the case that the electronic device fails to initiate a call by performing the above steps 102 and 103, the following step 105 may be performed.

Step 105: The electronic device dials the area code before the emergency call number, and re-initiates the call request.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may use the target location information of the electronic device (refer to the specific steps in step 115 below), and combine the target location (indicated by the target location information) with the target location information according to the target location information. The area code corresponding to the location) is determined as the area code to be dialed.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may also determine the area code to be dialed according to the user's previous travel track. Specifically, the electronic device determines the current location (for example, determines the end of the track as the current location) according to the user's travel trajectory obtained before, and determines the area code to be dialed according to the area code corresponding to the current location.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present application, an area code (eg, 010, 029, etc.) is added to the electronic device before the emergency call number (eg, 110, 120, etc.) call request. That is, the emergency call number added with the area code is replaced with the original emergency call number and the call operation is performed again, and the network and line used for the call operation continue to use the network and line of the original number. That is to say, after step 105 is performed, the electronic device returns to 101 for re-execution, that is, after step 105 , steps 101 to 103 are repeatedly performed. In the specific execution process, in order to simplify the execution steps, step 102 or step 103 can be directly executed after step 105 (since the service status of the first SIM card has been judged, unnecessary steps can be omitted to improve execution speed).

It can be understood that, the electronic device may add an area code before the emergency call number, and use the emergency call number with the dialed area code to re-initiate the call request. That is, the electronic device changes the default emergency call mode into a common call mode to initiate a call request again, thereby increasing the probability of a successful call, thereby increasing the rescue probability of the user, and reducing the risk to the user.

The embodiment of the present application provides a calling method, in which an electronic device can detect the service status of a first SIM card in at least one SIM card; when the first SIM card has an IMS service, use the first SIM card to initiate a call through IMS Call request; in the case that the first SIM card has no IMS service, determine the target access network according to the wireless access type of the first SIM card, and use the first SIM card to initiate a call request through the target access network. Through this method, the electronic device can detect the service status of the first SIM card in the at least one SIM card, and respectively initiate emergency call requests according to whether it has IMS services, that is, when there are IMS services, directly send the call requests through the IMS; When there is no IMS service, use the target access network determined by the wireless access type of the first SIM card to initiate a call request. In this way, a SIM card can try to initiate a call request through multiple channels in turn, increasing the probability of establishing a call, thereby effectively avoiding the situation where the user cannot be rescued in time due to failure of the call connection or interruption of the call, and improving the probability of the user being rescued.

Optionally, with reference to FIG. 1 , as shown in FIG. 2 , the above-mentioned target access network may be the first network corresponding to the wireless access type of the first SIM card. After the above step 103, the calling method provided by this embodiment of the present application may further include the following judgment step 106, and according to the judgment result of the step 106, the following step 107 or step 108 is performed.

Step 106: The electronic device determines the result of the call request initiated by the first SIM through the first network.

It should be noted that the result of the first SIM initiating the call request through the first network includes two types: call success and call failure. The following step 107 is performed when the call succeeds, and the following step 108 is performed when the call fails.

Step 107: If the call request is successfully initiated through the first network using the first SIM card, the electronic device establishes the call through the first network.

Optionally, after the call is successfully established through the first network, the device can send rescue information, make a rescue call, etc. through the established emergency call channel.

Optionally, the foregoing electronic device using the first SIM card to initiate a call request through the IMS means that the electronic device uses the first SIM card to initiate a call request through VoLTE or VoWIFI. As usual.

Step 108: If the first SIM card fails to initiate the call request through the first network, the electronic device switches the first network to the second network, and sends the call request through the second network.

Wherein, the above-mentioned second network is a network associated with the wireless access type of the first SIM card and different from the first network.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, for the specific description of the first network, reference may be made to the description in the foregoing step 103 .

It should be noted that, in the embodiment itself, for the sending method of sending the call request through the second network, reference may be made to the processing method of the first network. Here, it is only network switching, and the calling method has not changed.

Preferably, in this embodiment of the present application, after performing step 108 (that is, in the case where sending the call request through the second network also fails), the electronic device may perform the above step 105, and then perform step 108 again, that is, steps 106 to 106 Step 108 is described below. That is, after dialing the area code, use the second network to re-initiate the call request.

Exemplarily, assuming that the SIM card 1 of the electronic device is a mobile card without IMS service (that is, the first network is GSM), if the electronic device fails to send a call request through the GSM network using the SIM card 1, the electronic device can After the network is switched, the call request is resent, that is, the GSM network is switched to the WCDMA network (ie, the second network), and the call request is sent through the WCDMA.

It can be understood that, in the case that the electronic device fails to make a call request based on the first network through the first SIM card, the electronic device switches the first network to the second network in time, and continues to send through the first SIM card based on the second network. Therefore, by trying different networks, the probability of a successful call is increased, thereby increasing the probability of users being rescued and reducing user risks.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the calling method provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes the following steps 109 to 111 . Wherein, step 109 is performed after step 108 is performed, and in the case where the first SIM card fails to initiate a call through the above-mentioned first network and the above-mentioned second network.

Step 109 , in the case where the first SIM card fails to initiate a call through the first network and the second network, display a first prompt message on the interface of the electronic device.

Wherein, the above-mentioned first prompt message is used to prompt the user to replace the SIM card.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the display form of the first prompt message is not limited to text, pictures, videos, and combinations thereof. In the actual use process, the electronic device can display the first prompt message with other special effects or prompts, not limited to the vibration of the electronic device, the flickering of the breathing light, the display of special effects animations or pictures on the screen, etc., which can be determined according to the actual use requirements. The application examples are not specifically limited.

In addition, the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the display position, display size, and specific display manner of the first prompt message, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the failure to initiate a call through the first network and the second network by using the first SIM card means that within a threshold time period (for example, 20 seconds or 40 seconds), the call through the first network and the second network fails. Neither of the second networks has established an emergency call.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned replacing the SIM card refers to physically replacing the SIM card of the electronic device, or controlling the switching of the SIM card currently used by the electronic device.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned failure to initiate a call through the first network and the second network using the first SIM card means that the electronic device fails to initiate a call request through the first SIM card. It does not include the call method of using the first line to transfer to the second line in the following steps 115 to 118, and the call method of steps 115 to 118 is completed based on a dedicated line or a dedicated channel, and does not. Depends on what SIM card is used.

Step 110: Receive a first input.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first input may be the input of the first prompt message.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the first input is used to trigger the electronic device to re-initiate the call request after replacing the first SIM card with the second SIM card. Specifically, the first input may be a touch input (eg, single-click, double-click, long-press, etc.) to the prompt message, a voice input to the electronic device, or a preset physical input to the electronic device key input. Specifically, it can be determined according to actual use requirements, which is not specifically limited in this application.

Step 111: In response to the first input, re-initiate the call request through the second SIM card.

Wherein, the above-mentioned second SIM card is a different SIM card from the first SIM card.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device uses the replaced second SIM card to initiate a call request again, the steps of initiating a call request with reference to the first SIM card can be repeated, that is, the electronic device can use the first SIM card to initiate a call request repeatedly. After the SIM card is replaced with the second SIM card, the operations in the foregoing steps 106 to 108 are performed in sequence.

In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, similar to replacing the first SIM card with the second SIM card, in the case that the electronic device still fails to make calls using the second SIM card, the user can trigger the electronic device to repeatedly perform steps 109 to 111, Replacing the second SIM card with the fourth SIM card, the fifth SIM card, etc. in turn, initiates a call request again, until all the SIM cards without service are replaced in sequence. If the call fails after the execution is completed, the following steps 115 to 118 can be jumped to be executed.

Exemplarily, FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the operation of the electronic device on the first prompt information. The user uses the SIM card 1 of the electronic device to make a call to 120, and if the call is still not connected within 20 seconds (that is, the threshold duration), as shown in Figure 3, the call interface 001 of the electronic device displays prompt information 002 (that is, the first target Prompt message), the user can trigger the electronic device to replace the SIM card 1 with the SIM card 2 by clicking "OK" in the prompt message 002 to initiate dialing 120 again.

It can be understood that, in the case where the first SIM card fails to initiate a call through the first network and the second network, the electronic device can display the first prompt information, and trigger the electronic device according to the user's operation on the first prompt information. The device replaces the first SIM card with the second SIM card and re-initiates the call request. That is, the user can manually control the replacement of the SIM card to continue the call according to the call result feedback from the electronic device, thereby increasing the probability of a successful call by trying different SIM cards, thereby increasing the probability of the user being rescued and reducing the risk to the user.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the at least one SIM card includes a first SIM card and a third SIM card. The calling method provided by this embodiment of the present application further includes the following step detection step 112, the electronic device may determine to execute the following step 113 according to the detection result (ie, the service status of the third SIM card), or, step 114a and step 114b, wherein , step 114a and step 114b may also be combined into step 114 for unified execution.

Step 112: After the first SIM card fails to initiate a call request through the IMS, the electronic device detects the service status of the third SIM card.

It should be noted that, after the execution result of the above step 102 is that the call request fails, step 112 is directly executed, and when the third SIM card has the IMS service, step 113 is executed preferentially. That is, under the same conditions, the IMS can establish a call channel more quickly and stably (for example, when the network signal is good, a call can be established more quickly through VoLTE or VoWIFI), so it is preferred.

In addition, the above step of detecting the service state of the third SIM card is similar to the step of detecting the first SIM card, and reference may be made to the specific description in the above step 101, which will not be repeated here.

Step 113: In the case that the third SIM card has the IMS service, use the third SIM card to initiate a call request through the IMS.

It should be noted that, for the above-mentioned specific process of initiating a call request by using the first SIM card through the IMS, please refer to the related art, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

It can be understood that, under the same conditions, IMS can be used with priority because it can establish a call channel more quickly and stably. Therefore, the electronic device can quickly traverse all the SIM cards in the electronic device, and use the SIM card with the SIM function to give priority to trying to initiate a call. Call request, so that an emergency call request can be established more quickly, thereby saving the user's time and improving the rescue probability of the user.

Step 114a, in the case that the third SIM card does not have the IMS service, the electronic device determines the target SIM card.

Wherein, the above-mentioned target SIM card is any one of the first SIM card and the third SIM card.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned determination of the target SIM card may adopt a random determination method. If there are multiple third SIM cards, the target SIM card is any one of the first SIM card and the multiple third SIM cards.

Step 114b, the electronic device determines the target access network according to the wireless access type of the target SIM card, and uses the target SIM card to initiate a call request through the target access network.

It should be noted that, after the target SIM card is determined, the target access network may be determined with reference to the method in step 103 above.

Optionally, the network corresponding to the wireless access type of the target SIM card (ie, the first network) is preferentially determined as the target access network.

Exemplarily, assuming that the electronic device has two SIM cards (eg, a first SIM card and a third SIM card), there are three groups of possible models according to whether the SIM cards have IMS services: the first group, both SIM cards There is IMS service; the second group, one SIM card has IMS service, the other has no IMS service; the third group, both SIM cards have no IMS service. The execution process of the three groups of models is briefly described below:

Group 1: It is assumed that both the first SIM card and the third SIM card have IMS services.

First, perform steps 101 and 102, and use the first SIM card to initiate a call request through the IMS; if the execution result of step 102 fails, then perform steps 112 and 113, and use the third SIM card to initiate a call request through the IMS ; Next, in the case that the two SIM cards IMS fail to initiate the call request, step 114a and step 114b are executed.

The second group: it is assumed that the first SIM card has IMS service, and the third SIM card has no IMS service.

First, execute step 101 and step 102, use the first SIM card to initiate a call request through the IMS; if the execution result of step 102 fails, then execute step 112 and step 114 (ie, step 114a and step 114b).

The third group: it is assumed that neither the first SIM nor the third SIM has IMS service.

First, step 101 and step 103 are performed, and the first SIM card initiates a call request through the target access network; then step 112 and step 114 (ie, step 114a and step 114b) are performed, that is, after the target SIM card is determined, the target access is re-determined network and initiate a call request.

It should be noted that when the number of SIM cards of the electronic device is greater than or equal to 2, it is also divided into the above three groups of models according to the service status of the SIM cards, and the specific execution process refers to the process described above.

It can be understood that, in the case of multiple SIMs, the electronic device can initiate a call request in multiple ways according to whether the first SIM card and the third SIM have IMS services. In this case, the SIM card with the SIM function is preferentially used to initiate a call request, so that an emergency call request can be established more quickly, thereby saving the user's time and increasing the probability of the user being rescued. On the other hand, in the case of no IMS service, a call request can be initiated through the target access network, thus ensuring that the call request is initiated through multiple channels, thereby increasing the probability of a successful call and improving the probability of a user being rescued.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the calling method further includes the following steps 115 to 118 .

Step 115: In the case that the call request initiated by using at least one SIM card through the IMS and/or the target access network fails, the electronic device acquires the target location information of the user.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the above method of acquiring the target position may be determined according to a built-in position sensor of the electronic device, or may be determined according to the signal position of the electronic device connected to the base station, or other positioning methods may be used. The embodiments of the present application are not specifically limited, and reference may be made to related technologies.

Step 116: The electronic device initiates a call request through the first line, and sends target location information.

Wherein, the above-mentioned first line is a line provided by an electronic equipment service provider.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device initiates a call request through the first line, the electronic device sends a message to a server (for example, a server of an electronic device service provider, or a server of an emergency call center entrusted by the service provider) The first target information, where the first target information includes the position information (ie, target position information) of the electronic device corresponding to the called number and the calling number.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned first line is a dedicated line or dedicated channel, and is generally only used for emergency calls. Specifically, it may be a line provided by an electronic equipment service provider, or may be a dedicated network line or dedicated channel created by a network service provider entrusted by the electronic equipment service provider.

Step 117, the electronic device receives the first information.

The above-mentioned first information is used to indicate a second line, and the second line is an emergency call line at the location of the user determined according to the target location information.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned second line may be an emergency call line at the location of the user determined by the target location information. Exemplarily, the second line may be an emergency rescue phone in area A where the user is located, or may be a rescue service center in area A, or the like.
