Method for selecting public land mobile network PLMN, and apparatus and device thereof
View Patent ↗Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for selecting a public land mobile network PLMN, and an apparatus and a device for same. The method includes: during a process of selecting a network by a mobile terminal, if it is learned by means of determining that a registered public land mobile network RPLMN and a home public land mobile network HPLMN correspond to the mobile terminal are unavailable, acquiring a PLMN network in a PLMN list pre-stored in the mobile terminal, to perform a registration, wherein the PLMN list includes network information of one or more other PLMN networks that are selected and successfully registered.
1. A method for selecting a public land mobile network (PLMN), comprising:
during a process of selecting a network by a mobile terminal, if it is learned by means of determining that a registered public land mobile network (RPLMN) and a home public land mobile network (HPLMN) corresponding to the mobile terminal are unavailable, acquiring a PLMN network in a PLMN list pre-stored in the mobile terminal to perform a registration, wherein the PLMN list comprises network information of one or more other PLMN networks that are selected and successfully registered, identifying an unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks, and displaying a forbidden public land mobile network (FPLMN) wherein the FPLMN is the unavailable PLMN, and wherein the network information of the one or more other PLMN networks that are selected and successfully registered comprises the network information of the one or more other PLMN networks that are manually selected by a user and successfully registered;
during the process of manually selecting a PLMN network by the user, identifying the unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks;
after identifying the unavailable PLMN network among all found PLMN networks, displaying the PLMN networks in the following sequence: an HPLMN or an equivalent home public land mobile network (EHPLMN), a PLMN list, a user controlled public land mobile network (UPLMN) or an operator controlled public land mobile network (OPLMN), an RPLMN, other PLMNs, and the FPLMN, wherein the FPLMN is the unavailable PLMN, and wherein the other PLMNs are sorted according to following steps:
randomly sorting, according to signal strength, PLMNs whose signal strength is higher than a preset value; and
sorting, according to signal strength in descending order, PLMNs whose signal strength is lower than the preset value.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the network information comprises a mobile country code (MCC), a mobile network code (MNC), and standard information that correspond to the PLMN network.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the network information of each PLMN network comprised in the PLMN list is dynamically adjusted according to a least recently used (LRU) algorithm.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the method further comprises: during the process of manually selecting a PLMN network by the user, identifying the unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks.
5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the method further comprises: during the process of manually selecting a PLMN network by the user, identifying the unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks.
6. An apparatus for selecting a public land mobile network (PLMN), comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
a processor coupled to the memory to execute the instructions to:
during a process of selecting a network by a mobile terminal, if it is learned by means of determining that a registered public land mobile network (RPLMN) and a home public land mobile network (HPLMN) corresponding to the mobile terminal are unavailable, acquire a PLMN network in a PLMN list pre-stored in the mobile terminal to perform a registration, where the PLMN list includes network information of one or more other PLMN networks that are selected and successfully registered and the network information comprises the network information of the one or more other PLMN networks that are manually selected by a user and successfully registered,
during a process of manually selecting a PLMN network by the user, identify an unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks;
display all the PLMN networks in the following sequence: an HPLMN or an equivalent home public land mobile network (EHPLMN), a PLMN list, a user controlled public land mobile network (UPLMN) or an operator controlled public land mobile network (OPLMN), an RPLMN, other PLMNs, and a forbidden public land mobile network (FPLMN), wherein the FPLMN is the unavailable PLMN;
randomly sort, according to signal strength, PLMNs whose signal strength is higher than a preset value; and
sort, according to signal strength in descending order, PLMNs whose signal strength is lower than the preset value.
7. The apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the network information comprises a mobile country code (MCC), a mobile network code (MNC), and standard information that correspond to the PLMN network.
8. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the network information of each PLMN network included in the PLMN list is dynamically adjusted according to a least recently used (LRU) algorithm.
9. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the processor further executes the instructions to: during a process of manually selecting a PLMN network by the user, identify an unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks.
10. The apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the processor further executes the instructions to: during a process of manually selecting a PLMN network by the user, identify an unavailable PLMN network among found PLMN networks.
