Method and device of mobile instant messaging

Abstract

The invention provides a method of mobile instant messaging, comprising the following steps: disconnecting the connection with an instant messaging (IM) server; intercepting an activation message of the IM server; sending information for establishing a connection request to the IM server according to the activation message and reestablishing connection with the IM server. The invention also discloses a terminal, comprising a communication module and an intercepting module, wherein the communication module is used for disconnecting the connection with the IM server and reestablishing connection with the IM server according to the activation message; and the intercepting module is used for intercepting the activation message of the IM server. The invention realizes that the mobile IM user actively disconnects the connection with the server under certain conditions, and reestablishes connection with the IM server as required, thus not only reducing waste of network resources and air interface resources, reducing device cost and management cost of operators, but also meeting the requirement for instant messaging of mobile users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method and device for mobile instant messaging. Background technique [0002] With the development of mobile networks, Instant Messaging (IM) is changing from a desktop application to a mobile application. After users install the IM application on the mobile terminal, they can enjoy instant messaging similar to that on the PC side during the mobile process. communication experience. In the existing mobile IM system, in order to ensure the timeliness of communication between the mobile terminal and the server, the mobile terminal and the server adopt a persistent connection mechanism. Whether there is information interaction or not, it is necessary to maintain a real-time TCP / IP connection. The mobile terminal and the server confirm whether the connection is normal through the handshake mechanism. If the connection between the mobile terminal and the server is interrupted, the two par...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the process of implementing the present invention, the inventor found that in the above-mentioned prior art, when the user does not chat temporarily, the above-mentioned interaction information, handshake information, and management information are useless to the user, but these information occupy a lot of network resources. Traffic, air interface resources, and link resources between wireless base stations and mobile phones, and the waste of these resources brings unnecessary burdens to both users and operators. On the one hand, users need to pay for wasted traffic and the power consumption of mobile terminals is relatively high , to accelerate the depletion of battery power, on the other hand, operators are unwilling to waste precious air interface resources to transmit meaningless information

In addition, network devices need to allocate long-term IP address resources for mobile phones, and need to manage these resources. When the number of mobile IM online users is large, the maintenance of these resources increases the equipment cost and management cost of the operator.
