Problems solved by technology

But, thereby brought a problem, when the user uses the relevant application of LBS indoors, unavoidably open GPS module (that is, GPS module is inevitably set to power consumption mode)
Due to the large power consumption of the GPS module, when using LBS-related applications indoors, it will bring additional power consumption to the smart terminal, which will shorten the battery life of the smart terminal and cause poor user experience.

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of communication technology, more particularly to a method and device for controlling the positioning mode of an intelligent terminal. The method includes obtaining the work state, which contains an off state or an operating state, of a GPS module in the intelligent terminal; and obtaining the environmental information of the intelligent terminal, switching the work state of the GPS module based on the environmental information of the intelligent terminal. The method avoids that the GPS module is always in the operating state under the environment of poor GPS signals in the positioning process of the intelligent terminal, the power consumption of the intelligent terminal is reduced, the battery life of the intelligent terminal is extended, and the user experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a method and device for controlling a positioning mode of an intelligent terminal. Background technique [0002] Location Based Service (Location Based Service, LBS) is a commonly used positioning method in smart terminals. At present, there are countless applications developed based on LBS on the market, involving various fields such as leisure and entertainment, life services and social networking, that is, LBS technology plays an important role in various industries. [0003] The LBS positioning technology includes Global Positioning System (Global Positioning System, GPS) positioning, network positioning and base station positioning. GPS positioning has the characteristics of high precision, does not use data network, but the positioning speed is slow, and depends on the signal status of GPS satellites, which is not available indoors; network positioning has l...
