Abstract

A communication method, a communication device for a dual-SIM card-dual-call, DSDC, terminal, and the DSDC terminal are provided. The DSDC terminal includes a first radio frequency subsystem for initiating Packet Switching, PS, service and a second radio frequency subsystem for initiating Circuit Switching, CS, service. The transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem is controlled to be under a predetermined value during a reception timeslot for the CS service of the second radio frequency subsystem, thereby overcoming the problem caused by the interference between two radio frequency subsystems of the DSDC terminal.

Claims (29)

1 . A communication method for a Dual-SIM card-Dual-Call terminal, the Dual-SIM card-Dual-Call terminal includes a first radio frequency subsystem for initiating a Packet Switching, PS, service and a second radio frequency subsystem for initiating a Circuit Switching, CS, service, the communication method comprising:

controlling a transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem to be under a predetermined value during a reception timeslot for the CS service of the second radio frequency subsystem.

2 . The communication method according to claim 1 ,

wherein prior to the controlling of the transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem under the predetermined value, the method further comprises:

setting a correspondence between a reception level for the CS service and the predetermined value, which is a transmission power threshold for the PS service.

3 . The communication method according to claim 2 ,

wherein the controlling of the transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem under the predetermined value comprises:

acquiring the reception level for the CS service, and determining the threshold for the PS service corresponding to the reception level in accordance with the correspondence; and

adjusting the transmission power for the PS service so that the transmission power for the PS service to be below the threshold.

4 . The communication method according to claim 3 , wherein the adjusting of the transmission power for the PS service comprises:

judging whether a current transmission power for the PS service is greater than the threshold; and

adjusting the transmission power for the PS service to be not greater than the threshold when the current transmission power for the PS service is greater than the threshold, and not adjusting the transmission power for the PS service when the current transmission power for the PS service is not greater than the threshold.

5 . The communication method according to claim 1 , wherein the controlling of the transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency system to be below the predetermined value comprises:

cutting off the transmission power output for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem.

6 . A communication device for a dual-SIM card-dual-call terminal, the Dual-SIM card-Dual-Call terminal includes a first radio frequency subsystem for initiating a PS service and a second radio frequency subsystem for initiating a CS service, the communication device comprising:

a controlling module configured to control a transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem to be below a predetermined value within a reception timeslot for the CS service of the second radio frequency subsystem.

7 . The communication device according to claim 6 , wherein the communication device further comprises:

a setting module configured to set a correspondence between a reception level for the CS service and the predetermined value, which is a transmission power threshold for the PS service.

8 . The communication device according to claim 7 , wherein the controlling module comprises:

an acquiring submodule configured to acquire the reception level for the CS service, and to determine the threshold for the PS service corresponding to the reception level in accordance with the correspondence set by the setting module; and

a controlling submodule configured to adjust the transmission power for the PS service, so that the transmission power for the PS service to be below the threshold.

9 . The communication device according to claim 8 , wherein the controlling submodule comprises:

a judging unit configured to judge whether a current transmission power for the PS service is greater than the threshold; and

a processing unit, configured to adjust the transmission power for the PS service to be not greater than the threshold when the current transmission power for the PS service is greater than the threshold, and not to adjust the transmission power for the PS service when the current transmission power for the PS service is not greater than the threshold.

10 . The communication device according to claim 6 , wherein the controlling module comprises:

a cutting-off submodule configured to cut off the transmission power output for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem.

11 . A dual-SIM card-dual-call terminal, comprising:

a communication device including a controlling module for a dual-SIM card-dual-call terminal, the Dual-SIM card-Dual-Call terminal having a first radio frequency subsystem for initiating a PS service and a second radio frequency subsystem for initiating a CS service,

wherein the controlling module is configured to control a transmission power for the PS service of the first radio frequency subsystem to be below a predetermined value within a reception timeslot for the CS service of the second radio frequency subsystem.
