Abstract

An apparatus for measuring and displaying Internet traffic of a mobile phone, includes a traffic measurement module and a traffic display module. The apparatus also includes a SIM card account creation module configured to create a SIM card account for each of a plurality of SIM cards. The traffic measurement module measures the Internet traffic of each of the SIM card accounts. The traffic display module displays the Internet traffic of each of the SIM card accounts. The Internet traffic of each SIM card on the mobile phone may be measured and displayed.

Claims (23)

1. A method for measuring and displaying data traffic of a mobile phone, the mobile phone supporting a plurality of subscriber identity module (SIM) cards, the method comprising:

monitoring, by the mobile phone, whether the mobile phone has an ongoing data stream;

if the mobile phone has an ongoing data stream, measuring, by the mobile phone, the data traffic of the ongoing data stream;

if the ongoing data stream corresponds to a first SIM card of the plurality of SIM card, storing, by the mobile phone, the measured data traffic of the ongoing data stream into a first SIM card account associated with the first SIM card;

if the ongoing data stream corresponds to a second SIM card of the plurality of SIM cards, storing, by the mobile phone, the measured data traffic of the ongoing data stream into a second SIM card account created associated with the second SIM card; and

displaying, by the mobile phone, data traffic of the first SIM card account and data traffic of the second SIM card account respectively.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein before monitoring, by the mobile phone, whether the mobile phone has an ongoing data stream, the method comprises:

extracting, by the mobile phone, a unique identity of each SIM card of the plurality of SIM cards;

creating, by the mobile phone, the first SIM card account corresponding to the unique identity of the first SIM card; and

creating, by the mobile phone, the second SIM card account corresponding to the unique identity of the second SIM card.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the data traffic comprises a data resource amount.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the data traffic comprises data surfing duration.

5. A mobile phone supporting a plurality of subscriber identity module (SIM) cards, comprising:

a transceiver, configured to receive and send data stream;

a processor, configured to:

monitor whether the mobile phone has an ongoing data stream;

if the transceiver receives an ongoing data stream, measure the data traffic of the ongoing data stream;

if the ongoing data stream corresponds to a first SIM card of the plurality of SIM cards, store the measured data traffic of the ongoing data stream into a first SIM card account created for the first SIM card; and

if the ongoing data stream corresponds to a second SIM card of the plurality of SIM cards, store the measured data traffic of the ongoing data stream into a second SIM card account created for the second SIM card;

wherein the mobile phone further comprises a display configured to display data traffic of the first SIM card account and data traffic of the second SIM card account respectively.

6. The mobile phone according to claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to: extract a unique identity of each SIM card of the plurality of SIM cards, create the first SIM card account corresponding to the unique identity of the first SIM card, and create the second SIM card account corresponding to the unique identity of the second SIM card.

7. The mobile phone according to claim 5 , wherein the data traffic comprises a data resource amount.

8. The mobile phone according to claim 5 , wherein the data traffic comprises data surfing duration.
