Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.
The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a network control method, which may be applied to an electronic device operating in a dual connectivity mode, where the electronic device includes a terminal or a server, fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating the network control method according to an exemplary embodiment, and as shown in fig. 1, the method mainly includes the following steps:
in step 101, controlling the electronic equipment to reside in a first cellular mobile network;
in step 102, when the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the handover condition, switching from the first cellular mobile network to a second cellular mobile network;
in step 103, when the residence time of the electronic device in the second cellular mobile network is greater than or equal to the set residence time, switching from the second cellular mobile network to the first cellular mobile network;
wherein the bandwidth of the first cellular mobile network is greater than the bandwidth of the second cellular mobile network.
Here, the terminal includes a mobile terminal and a fixed terminal, wherein the mobile terminal includes: the fixed terminal can comprise personal computer equipment, a monitoring device or medical equipment. The network control method in the embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to an electronic device operating in a Dual Connectivity mode, where the Dual Connectivity mode refers to an EN-DC Connectivity mode, that is, a Dual Connectivity between a 4G radio access network and a 5G radio access network, where DC represents Dual Connectivity, that is, dual Connectivity; e represents E-UTRA, namely a 4G radio access network; n stands for NR, i.e. 5G radio access network. That is to say, when the electronic device in the embodiment of the present disclosure operates in the dual connection mode, two paths may be connected, and both the two paths may perform data transmission, where the two paths may be: LTE path (LTE RRC), i.e. 4G path and 5G path (NR RRC).
In some embodiments, the method further comprises: detecting a performance indicator parameter of the first cellular mobile network; determining whether a network service of the first cellular mobile network satisfies a handover condition based on the performance indicator parameter.
The performance indicator parameter is used to characterize the current performance status of the first cellular mobile network, for example, it may be determined whether the first cellular mobile network is abnormal (for example, network congestion or traffic interruption) based on the performance indicator parameter, and correspondingly, when it is determined that the first cellular mobile network is abnormal, it is determined that the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the handover condition, and at this time, handover from the first cellular mobile network to the second cellular mobile network may be performed. For example, taking the performance index parameter including the transmission number of the data packets as an example, when it is determined that the transmission number of the data packets within the set time duration is smaller than the set number threshold, it may be determined that the first cellular mobile network is abnormal, and at this time, the first cellular mobile network may be switched to the second cellular network. For another example, when it is determined that the number of data packets transmitted in the set time period is zero, it may be determined that the first cellular mobile network is out of service for transmitting data.
Wherein the bandwidth of the first cellular mobile network is larger than the bandwidth of the second cellular mobile network. For example, when the first cellular mobile network is a 5G network, the second cellular mobile network may then be: fourth generation mobile communication networks (4G) or third generation mobile communication networks (3G); when the first cellular mobile network is a 4G network, the second cellular mobile network may be a 3G network.
Taking the first cellular mobile network as a 5G network and the second cellular mobile network as a 4G network as an example, in an initial stage of using the electronic device, the electronic device may be accessed to the 5G network, and a performance index parameter of the 5G network is detected, where the performance index parameter may be based on the number of data packets transmitted by the 5G network, the signal strength of the 5G network, and the like. In the process of data transmission based on the 5G network, if it is determined that the network service of the 5G network meets the switching condition based on the performance index parameter, switching from the 5G network to the 4G network is possible.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, whether to perform network handover may be determined according to the performance index parameter of the first cellular mobile network, that is, the present disclosure may automatically switch to the second cellular mobile network when the first cellular mobile network is abnormal or is not suitable for data transmission. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by limiting the residence time of the electronic device in the second cellular mobile network within the set residence time, the situation that the electronic device resides in the second cellular mobile network for too long time can be reduced, and the on-line rate of the first cellular mobile network is further improved. The set residence time may be set as needed, as long as it is ensured that the electronic device does not reside in the second cellular mobile network for too long, which is not specifically limited herein.
Because the bandwidth of the first cellular mobile network is greater than the bandwidth of the second cellular mobile network, according to the technical scheme in the embodiment of the disclosure, on the first hand, the on-line rate of the first cellular mobile network with a greater bandwidth can be ensured; in the second aspect, when the first cellular mobile network with the larger bandwidth is abnormal or is not suitable for data transmission, the second cellular mobile network with the smaller bandwidth can be automatically switched, and the hosting mode of the network abnormality and/or weak field scene of the first cellular mobile network is compatible on the basis of ensuring the network rate of the first cellular mobile network, so that the compatibility problem in the network distribution process is reduced, and the experience of a user using the first cellular mobile network is improved. Here, the weak field scene refers to a scene in which the signal field intensity (level) is lower than the standard field intensity. For example, in a case where the electronic device accesses the first cellular mobile network, if the electronic device is located in a tunnel, a mine, or the like, it is determined that the first cellular mobile network is in a weak field scenario.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises:
detecting signal parameters and/or data transmission parameters of the first cellular mobile network within a set time length after a cutoff or signal abnormality occurs in data transmission through the first cellular mobile network;
and determining whether the first cellular mobile network meets the switching condition within the set time length according to the signal parameters and/or the data transmission parameters.
Here, it may be determined whether a cutout or signal anomaly of the first cellular mobile network transmission data occurs based on the performance indicator parameter. The performance index parameters may include: the number of data packets transmitted, the signal strength, etc. within a set duration. For example, when the number of data packets transmitted within a set time period for the electronic device to access the first cellular mobile network is determined to be zero, it may be determined that the first cellular mobile network is disconnected; when it is determined that the signal strength of the first cellular mobile network is below the set strength threshold, it may be determined that the signal of the first cellular mobile network is abnormal.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, after it is determined that a data interruption or a signal abnormality occurs in the first cellular mobile network, the first cellular mobile network is not immediately switched to the second cellular mobile network, but a signal parameter and/or a data transmission parameter of the first cellular mobile network is detected within a set time duration, and it is determined whether the first cellular mobile network meets a switching condition within the set time duration according to the signal parameter and/or the data transmission parameter, and when the first cellular mobile network meets the switching condition within the set time duration, the first cellular mobile network is switched to the second cellular mobile network.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after it is determined that a traffic break or a signal abnormality occurs in data transmission of the first cellular mobile network, the first cellular mobile network is not immediately switched to the second cellular mobile network, but signal parameters and/or data transmission parameters of the first cellular mobile network are continuously detected within a set time duration, and after the set time duration is exceeded, if the first cellular mobile network still meets a handover condition, the first cellular mobile network is switched to the second cellular mobile network. That is, after determining that the first cellular mobile network is abnormal, the network handover is not immediately performed, but the state of the first cellular mobile network is continuously observed within a set time period, and if the first cellular mobile network maintains abnormal within the set time period, the network handover is performed.
Or for example, if the first cellular mobile network is a 5G network and the second cellular mobile network is a 4G network, the electronic device may continue to stay in the 5G network for a set duration after it is determined that the data transmission of the 5G network has a traffic break or a signal anomaly, and detect the signal parameter and/or the data transmission parameter of the 5G network for the set duration. And within the set time length, if the network service of the 5G network is determined to meet the switching condition based on the signal parameters and/or the data transmission parameters, switching from the 5G network to the 4G network.
By means of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a time window for observing the state of the first cellular mobile network, i.e. a set time period, can be set before handover, so that if the first cellular mobile network returns to normal within the set time period, it indicates that a short-time jitter may occur in the first cellular mobile network, i.e. the first cellular mobile network is unstable for a short time, and then network handover is not necessary. In the embodiment of the disclosure, a set time length is set before network switching is performed to reduce unnecessary switching, so that not only can system resources be saved, but also the stability of the network can be maintained, and further the experience of a user in using the electronic equipment is improved.
In some embodiments, the set duration may be greater than or equal to the first duration threshold and less than or equal to the second duration threshold. For example, the first duration threshold may be 5 minutes and the second duration threshold may be 10 minutes. In the implementation process, the set time length is limited in the range of the first time length threshold and the second time length threshold, so that the stability of the network can be maintained under the condition of not influencing network switching.
In some embodiments, the signal parameters include: signal strength; the data transmission parameters include: a data transmission rate; the switching condition comprises at least one of the following conditions:
the signal strength of the first cellular mobile network is below a set strength threshold;
the data transmission rate of the first cellular mobile network is below a first set rate threshold.
Here, the signal parameter may include a signal strength, and in the implementation, a set strength threshold may be set, and when the signal strength of the first cellular network is determined to be lower than the set strength threshold, it is determined that the network service of the first cellular mobile network satisfies the handover condition. Here, the set strength threshold may be determined from empirical values or from historical signal strengths of the first cellular mobile network. When the signal strength of the first cellular mobile network is lower than the set strength threshold, it is characterized that the capability of the first cellular mobile network for transmitting data is lower than the average level of data transmission when the first cellular mobile network is normal, and at this time, it may be determined that the first cellular mobile network is abnormal, that is, the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the handover condition.
In some embodiments, the data transmission parameters include: and determining that the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the switching condition when the data transmission rate of the first cellular network is determined to be lower than the first set rate threshold. Here, the data transmission rate refers to a rate of data transmission by the electronic device based on the first cellular mobile network after accessing the first cellular mobile network, and the data transmission rate may be determined according to an amount of data transmitted in a unit time.
Wherein the first set rate threshold may be determined empirically or based on historical data transmission rates of the first cellular mobile network. When the data transmission rate of the first cellular mobile network is lower than the first set rate threshold, it is characterized that the data transmission rate of the first cellular mobile network is lower than the average data transmission level when the first cellular mobile network is normal, and at this time, it may be determined that the first cellular mobile network is abnormal, that is, the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the handover condition.
In some embodiments, the data transmission parameters include: and determining that the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the switching condition when the data transmission fluency of the first cellular network is determined to be lower than a set fluency threshold. Here, the fluency of data transmission refers to a fluency of data transmission performed by the electronic device based on the first cellular mobile network after accessing the first cellular mobile network, and the fluency of data transmission may be determined according to the continuity of the transmitted data.
In some embodiments, the fluency of data transmission can be determined by a packet loss rate during data transmission. For example, in the process of transmitting a data packet, if a network congestion occurs, the data packet may be lost, and at this time, a packet loss rate may be determined according to a ratio of the number of lost data packets to the total number of transmitted data packets, and then the data transmission fluency may be determined according to the packet loss rate, for example, the higher the packet loss rate is, the lower the data transmission fluency is, the lower the packet loss rate is, and the higher the data transmission fluency is. For another example, when a data packet is transmitted to the buffer queue, if the data packet overflows, the data packet may also be lost, and at this time, the packet loss rate may also be determined according to the proportion of the number of the lost data packets to the total number of the transmitted data packets, and then the data transmission fluency may be determined according to the packet loss rate.
Wherein the set fluidity threshold may be determined empirically or based on historical data transmission fluency of the first cellular mobile network. When the data transmission fluency of the first cellular mobile network is lower than the set fluency threshold, the data transmission fluency representing the first cellular mobile network is lower than the average data transmission level when the first cellular mobile network is normal, and at this time, it can be determined that the first cellular mobile network is abnormal, that is, the network service of the first cellular mobile network meets the handover condition.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, whether the first cellular mobile network satisfies the handover condition may be considered from a plurality of aspects such as signal strength, data transmission rate, and data transmission fluency by detecting a plurality of parameters of the first cellular mobile network, and when at least one of the parameters satisfies the handover condition, the network handover is performed, so that the possibility of a false handover can be reduced.
In some embodiments, the switching from the second cellular mobile network to the first cellular mobile network when the electronic device stays in the second cellular mobile network for a time period greater than or equal to a set stay time period includes:
when the residence time of the electronic equipment in the second cellular mobile network is greater than or equal to the set residence time, determining the data transmission rate of the electronic equipment;
and when the data transmission rate is larger than a second set rate threshold value, switching from the second cellular mobile network to the first cellular mobile network.
Here, taking the example that the first cellular mobile network is a 5G network and the second cellular mobile network is a 4G network, after switching from the 5G network to the 4G network, it needs to be determined whether the data transmission rate of the electronic device exceeds a second set rate threshold due to the limited capability of the 4G network to transmit data, and when the data transmission rate of the electronic device exceeds the second set rate threshold, it indicates that the data transmission rate requirement is higher than the upper limit of data that can be transmitted by the 4G network, and if data transmission continues based on the 4G network, network congestion may be caused. In this case, it is necessary to switch from the 4G network to the 5G network having a larger bandwidth.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, after the handover from the first cellular mobile network to the second cellular mobile network, the data transmission rate of the electronic device for data transmission based on the second cellular mobile network may be determined, and it may be determined whether the data transmission rate is greater than a second set rate threshold. When the data transmission rate is greater than the second set rate threshold, it indicates that the currently transmitted data has a high requirement for the data transmission rate, and at this time, the cellular mobile network with a large bandwidth is required to perform data transmission, so as to ensure the speed and efficiency of data transmission on the basis of increasing the network rate of the second cellular mobile network.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises:
determining a minimum length of time that the electronic device is camped on the second cellular mobile network before handing over from the first cellular mobile network to the second cellular mobile network;
controlling a dwell time period for the electronic device to dwell in the second cellular mobile network to be greater than or equal to the minimum time period; wherein the minimum duration is less than or equal to the set dwell duration.
Here, before switching from the first cellular mobile network to the second cellular mobile network, a minimum time period for which the electronic device is camped on the second cellular mobile network may be determined, and the camped time period for which the electronic device is camped on the second cellular mobile network may be controlled to be greater than or equal to the minimum time period. Here, the minimum time period may be a time period set in advance according to an empirical value, or may be a time period determined based on a historical minimum time period, and is not particularly limited herein.
For example, before switching the network from the 5G network to the 4G network, the minimum duration of the electronic device residing in the 4G network may be determined, and the duration of the electronic device residing in the 4G network may be controlled to be greater than or equal to the minimum duration. Taking the example that the minimum duration is 5 minutes, after switching from the 5G network to the 4G network, the duration that the electronic device resides under the 4G network is greater than or equal to 5 minutes. In this way, the electronic device can be guaranteed to stay on the 4G network for a minimum period of time to reduce the possibility of frequent switching between the 4G network and the 5G network.
Here, by setting the minimum duration for the electronic device to camp on the second cellular mobile network, it can be ensured that the duration for the electronic device to camp on the second cellular mobile network is greater than or equal to the minimum duration after the handover from the first cellular mobile network to the second cellular mobile network. In this way, it is possible to reduce the situations in which the network is unstable due to frequent handovers between the first cellular mobile network and the second cellular mobile network.
In some embodiments, the determining a minimum length of time that the electronic device is camped on the second cellular mobile network comprises:
when the historical duration of the electronic equipment residing in the first cellular mobile network is greater than a set duration threshold, determining the minimum duration as a first value;
and when the historical duration of the electronic equipment residing in the first cellular mobile network is less than or equal to the set duration threshold, determining that the minimum duration is a second value, wherein the second value is greater than the first value.
Here, when the historical duration of the electronic device residing in the first cellular mobile network is less than or equal to the set duration threshold, it indicates that the electronic device is unstable in the network while residing in the first cellular mobile network, so the time of residence in the first cellular mobile network is short, in which case, if the electronic device also resides in the second cellular mobile network for a short time, it may cause too frequent handover between the first cellular mobile network and the second cellular mobile network, resulting in network instability.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the historical duration of the electronic device residing in the first cellular mobile network is less than or equal to the set duration threshold, the minimum duration may be determined as a second value that is greater than the first value. In this way, the electronic device can stay in the second cellular mobile network for a longer time in case of an unstable first cellular mobile network, reducing the possibility of network instability due to frequent handovers between networks.
In some embodiments, the first value may be a default value determined according to an empirical value, and the second value may be obtained by adding a penalty duration to the first value. Here, the punishment duration may be negatively related to the history duration, that is, the longer the history duration is, the shorter the punishment duration is, and the smaller the second value is; the shorter the historical duration is, the longer the penalty duration is, and the larger the second value is. That is, the second value may also be inversely related to the historical duration.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises:
after switching to the second cellular mobile network, if the electronic device switches to a Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle state or an RRC inactive state, switching from the second cellular mobile network to the first cellular mobile network.
Here, after the electronic device accesses the second cellular mobile network, if the electronic device switches to the RRC idle state or the RRC inactive state, it indicates that the amount of data to be currently transmitted is smaller than the set amount of data, for example, the amount of data transmission is zero. At this time, based on that the first cellular mobile network and the second cellular mobile network can both realize normal transmission of data, the present disclosure can ensure the on-line rate of the first cellular network by switching from the second cellular mobile network to the first cellular mobile network.
Taking the first cellular mobile network as a 5G network and the second cellular mobile network as a 4G network as an example, fig. 2 is a first network handover diagram according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, after the electronic device accesses the 4G network, if the electronic device switches to an RRC IDLE state (RRC IDLE) or an RRC inactive state, it indicates that the amount of data to be currently transmitted is small by a set amount of data, for example, the amount of data transmission is zero. At this time, the switching from the 4G network to the 5G network can be carried out to ensure the on-line rate of the 5G network. In other alternative embodiments, after the electronic device switches to the RRC connected state (RRCCONNECTED), if a traffic break or signal abnormality occurs in data transmission of the 5G network, the electronic device may switch from the 5G network to the 4G network.
In some embodiments, the network control method may be applied to set a network environment in which, when receiving an instruction to perform Wireless transmission using a cellular circuit, the connection of a Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) network may be stopped and a cellular mobile network may be accessed; when an indication to stop using the cellular circuit for wireless transmission is received, the cellular mobile network may be disconnected and the Wi-Fi network connection may be resumed. Fig. 3A is a schematic diagram of a network environment according to an example embodiment, as shown in fig. 3A, a network environment 300 includes a first electronic device 301, a first electronic device 302, a Wi-Fi access point 303, a cellular base station 304, and a network 305.
Fig. 3B is a schematic diagram illustrating LTE-NR Dual Connectivity according to an exemplary embodiment, and as shown in fig. 3B, the present disclosure relates to an EN-DC (EUTRA-NR Dual Connectivity) architecture, where the EN-DC architecture refers to a Dual Connectivity architecture with 4G as a primary node and 5G as a secondary node, where DC stands for Dual Connectivity, i.e., dual Connectivity; e represents E-UTRA, i.e. 4G network; n represents NR, i.e., a 5G network, in fig. 3B, a mobile phone and a base station are connected to two paths, i.e., a 4G path (LTE RRC) and a 5G path (NR RRC), both of which can transmit data, where the 4G path is a bandwidth and is more stable, and the 5G path is a high bandwidth, and is less stable in a network deployment process compared to the 4G path. In the present disclosure, RRC messages may also be transmitted between the secondary station and the handset.
In some embodiments, if the electronic device currently resides in the 5G network, when a data cut-off or a signal abnormality occurs in the 5G network, the electronic device enters an observation area (a set time duration), samples a signal parameter and/or a data transmission parameter of the 5G network within the set time duration, determines whether the 5G network meets a switching condition within the set time duration according to the signal parameter and/or the data transmission parameter, and disconnects the 5G path and only the 4G path exists when the 5G network meets the switching condition within the set time duration, that is, does not meet the 5G path using standard. In some embodiments, if the electronic device is in the 4G network, the data transmission rate of the electronic device in the 4G network may be determined, and when the data transmission rate in the 4G network reaches the second set rate threshold, the 5G path is increased.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a network switching according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, if the electronic device currently resides in the 5G network, when a traffic break or a signal abnormality occurs in data transmission of the 5G network, the electronic device enters an observation area, in which the electronic device continues to reside in the 5G network, and after the observation area, if the traffic break or the signal abnormality of the 5G network is maintained, the electronic device switches to the 4G network.
The first set rate threshold in fig. 4 may be a small page downlink rate threshold, that is, a rate threshold when a webpage with a small data amount runs on the electronic device, and the second set rate threshold may be a large page downlink rate threshold, that is, a rate threshold when a webpage with a large data amount runs on the electronic device, where the second set rate threshold is greater than the first set rate threshold. In the implementation process, when the electronic device resides in a 5G network and the data transmission rate in the 5G network is less than a first set rate threshold, the electronic device can be switched from the 5G network to a 4G network; when the electronic equipment resides in the 4G network and the data transmission rate under the 4G network is greater than the second set rate threshold value, the electronic equipment can be switched to the 5G network from the 4G network. Throughput refers to the amount of successfully transmitted data per unit of time, and is in megabits (Mb).
In some embodiments, if the switching duration of the electronic device between "4G- > 5G- > 4G" is short, that is, when the historical duration of the electronic device residing in the 5G network is less than or equal to the set duration threshold, the minimum duration of the electronic device residing in the 4G network is determined as the second value, where by prolonging the duration of the electronic device residing in the 4G network, the possibility of frequently switching the network can be reduced. That is to say, when the historical duration of the electronic device residing in the 5G network is less than or equal to the set duration threshold, even if the data transmission rate of the electronic device residing in the 4G network is high, the switching condition for switching the 5G network is met, the electronic device is not switched to the 5G network until the duration of the electronic device residing in the 4G network exceeds the minimum duration of the second value.
In some embodiments, the second value may be negatively correlated with the history duration, that is, the longer the history duration, the smaller the second value; the shorter the history duration, the larger the second value.
In some embodiments, the second value may be represented by a power exponent scale, and the second value may be incremented by an exponent. For example, an initial value may be set in advance empirically, where the initial value is greater than the first value. In the implementation process, the initial value may be used as an initial second value, the initial second value is used as a base number, and the number of times that the historical duration is determined to be less than or equal to the set duration threshold is used as an index. Taking the initial second value as 5 as an example, if the number of times that the historical duration is less than or equal to the set duration threshold is 1, the second value is 5; if the historical duration is less than or equal to the set durationThe number of times of the threshold is 2, the second value is 5 2 =25; if the number of times that the historical duration is less than or equal to the set duration threshold is 3, the second value is 5 3 ＝125。
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating a network handover according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 5, in a case that the electronic device is handed over from the 4G network to the 5G network and then needs to be handed over from the 5G network to the 4G network, it may be determined whether a historical duration that the electronic device previously resided in the 5G network is less than or equal to a set duration threshold; and if the historical duration of the electronic equipment previously residing in the 5G network is less than or equal to the set duration threshold, determining the minimum duration of the electronic equipment residing in the 4G network as a second value.
The first set rate threshold in fig. 5 may be a small page downlink rate threshold, that is, a rate threshold when a webpage with a small data amount runs on the electronic device, and the second set rate threshold may be a large page downlink rate threshold, that is, a rate threshold when a webpage with a large data amount runs on the electronic device, where the second set rate threshold is greater than the first set rate threshold. In the implementation process, when the electronic device resides in a 5G network and the data transmission rate in the 5G network is less than a first set rate threshold, the electronic device can be switched from the 5G network to a 4G network; when the electronic equipment resides in the 4G network and the data transmission rate under the 4G network is greater than the second set rate threshold, the electronic equipment can be switched to the 5G network from the 4G network. Throughput refers to the amount of successfully transmitted data per unit time, in Mb.
In some embodiments, the method further comprises: determining the network switching frequency of the electronic equipment in a target area; when the network switching frequency is larger than a set frequency threshold, locking the electronic equipment under a second cellular mobile network; switching from the second cellular mobile network to the first cellular mobile network upon detecting that the electronic device is not within the target area. For example, if it is determined that network switching frequently occurs in the active area of the user, such as a 5G network and a 4G network switching process, the electronic device is locked in the 4G network when entering the active area, and the 5G network is restored after detecting that the electronic device leaves the active area.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, in a 5G network weak field scene, the data transmission rate of various internet access services can be increased, for example, the data transmission rate of internet access services such as access to a webpage, a small video, a wechat phone and the like is increased, and the network delay is reduced. Under the boundary network of the 5G network and the 4G network, the delay jitter brought by the ping-pong effect caused by the mutual switching of the 5G network and the 4G network is prevented, and the stability of surfing the Internet is improved. In the process of laying out a 5G network by an operator, the problem of network compatibility is avoided.
