1. A terminal device, comprising:
- a state determining unit, comprising one or more processors and/or application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), configured todetermine period information of a transfer period, the period information designated to a specific application, wherein the terminal device designates the transfer period to transfer one or more periodic messages, wherein the periodic messages are to be repeatedly transferred to a server during the transfer period, and indicates whether to keep maintaining a session of a data call related to the specific application,set a detection period to detect a connection of a voice call, wherein the detection period is set, based on the determined period information of the transfer period, to be an interval having a specific time predetermined prior to and shorter than the transfer period, wherein the terminal device designates the periodic messages to notify the server of whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call established between the terminal device and the server, anddetermine, during the detection period, whether a current connection state is in a voice call connected state or whether the current connection state is in a state of a data call connected state in order to thereby transfer one or more periodic messages if the current connection state is not in the voice call connected state, and skip transferring any periodic messages indicating whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call if the current connection state is in the voice call connected state; and
an application interworking unit, comprising one or more processors and/or application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), configured todetermine, during the transfer period, whether the current connection state is the voice call connected state, and transfer the periodic messages through the data call when the state determining unit determines that the current connection state is in a state of the voice call connected state, andskip transferring, at a further transfer period other than the transfer period corresponding to the period information, any periodic messages indicating whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call related to the specific application, when the state determining unit determines that the current connection state is in a state of the voice call connected state during the session of the data call, in order to minimize simultaneously performing multiple radio access bearer connection.

Abstract
Disclosed herein are a terminal device including: a state determining unit to determine a connection state of a voice call or a data call at a specific time prior to a transfer period of a keep-alive message designated to a specific application; and an application interworking unit to transfer the keep-alive message through the data call according to the determined connection state of the voice call or the data call to notify of a driving state of the specific application.

4. A method of avoiding a concurrent call, the method performed by a terminal device and comprising:
-
determining period information of a transfer period, the period information designated to a specific application, wherein the terminal device designates the transfer period to transfer one or more periodic messages, wherein the periodic messages are to be repeatedly transferred to a server during the transfer period, and indicates whether to keep maintaining a session of a data call related to the specific application; setting a detection period to detect a connection of a voice call, wherein the detection period is set, based on the determined period information of the transfer period, to be an interval having a specific time predetermined prior to and shorter than the transfer period, wherein the terminal device designates the periodic messages to notify the server of whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call established between the terminal device and the server; determining, during the detection period, whether a current connection state is in a voice call connected state or whether the current connection state is in a data call connected state in order to there transfer one or more periodic messages if the current connection state is not in the voice call connected state, and skipping transferring any periodic messages indicating whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call if the current connection state is in the voice call connected state; determining, during the transfer period, whether the current connection state is in the voice call connected state, and transferring the periodic message through the data call when the current connection state is determined to be the voice call connected state, wherein the transferring of the periodic messages further comprises skipping transferring, at a further transfer period other than the transfer period corresponding to the period information, any periodic messages indicating whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call related to the specific application, when the current connection state is determined to be in a state of the voice call connected state during the session of the data call, in order to minimize simultaneously performing multiple radio access bearer connection; and receiving an acknowledgement message transferred by the server device in response to the periodic messages.

5. A method of operating a terminal device, the method performed by the terminal device and comprising:
-
determining period information of a transfer period, the period information designated to a specific application, wherein the terminal device designates the transfer period to transfer one or more periodic messages, wherein the periodic messages are to be repeatedly transferred to a server during the transfer period, and indicates whether to keep maintaining a session of a data call related to the specific application; setting a detection period to detect a connection of a voice call, wherein the detection period is set, based on the determined period information of the transfer period, to be an interval having a specific time predetermined prior to and shorter than the transfer period, wherein the terminal device designates the periodic messages to notify the server of whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call established between the terminal device and the server; determining, during the detection period, whether a current connection state is in a state of a voice call connected state or whether the current connection state is in a state of a data call connected state in order to thereby transfer one or more periodic messages if the current connection state is not in the voice call connected state, and skipping transferring any periodic messages indicating whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call if the current connection state is in the voice call connected state; and determining, during the transfer period, whether the current connection state is in a state of the voice call connected state, and transferring the periodic messages through the data call when the state determining unit determines that the current connection state is in a state of the voice call connected state, wherein the method further comprises skipping transferring, at a further transfer period other than the transfer period corresponding to the period information, any periodic messages indicating whether to keep maintaining the session of the data call related to the specific application, when the current connection state is determined to be in a state of the voice call connected state during the session of the data call, in order to minimize simultaneously performing multiple radio access bearer connection. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)
