Dual-connection measurement configuration method, measurement method, scheduling method and device, storage medium, base station and terminal

Abstract

The invention discloses a dual-connection measurement configuration method, a measurement method, a scheduling method and device, a storage medium, a base station and a terminal. The measurement configuration method comprises the following steps: after establishing a main network connection with user equipment, sending main network measurement configuration and candidate auxiliary network measurement configuration to the user equipment; selecting an auxiliary base station according to an auxiliary network measurement report fed back by the user equipment, and determining an auxiliary network first measurement configuration for the auxiliary base station and a candidate auxiliary network measurement gap required for the main base station to complete the auxiliary network first measurement configuration; sending a dual-connection configuration request to the auxiliary base station; and receiving an auxiliary network second measurement configuration and an auxiliary network measurement gap configured by an auxiliary base station, the auxiliary network measurement gap being determined according to a time gap required for the user equipment to complete measurement in the auxiliary network first measurement configuration and the auxiliary network second measurement configuration. Through the technical scheme provided by the invention, the NR measurement task can be completed in a short service interruption time, and an LTE baseband circuit does not need to be changed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to a dual connectivity measurement configuration method, measurement method, scheduling method and device, storage medium, base station, and terminal. Background technique [0002] In the R12 (Release 12) protocol formulated by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP for short), the long term evolution (Long Term Evaluation, LTE for short) technology introduces the concept of dual connectivity, that is, the two A base station (for example, an evolved Node B, referred to as eNB) performs uplink and downlink data transmission with a user equipment (User Equipment, referred to as UE) at the same time through cooperation. Wherein, one base station is the main base station of the user equipment, the radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC for short) signaling of the user equipment is maintained by the base station, and the base station is responsible...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At this time, if the primary base station and the secondary base station independently configure their own NR measurement configuration, it is necessary to add the NR measurement function to the LTE baseband circuit of the user equipment, which will greatly change the user equipment, which is not conducive to practical application

On the other hand, since the existing protocol does not specify how the primary base station (e.g., eNB) and the secondary base station (e.g., gNB) should cooperate with each other to configure the GAP for inter-frequency measurement, if the existing protocol is still used The scheme of configuring GAP on the main base station and applying it to all serving cells will inevitably cause a long period of service interruption, which is not conducive to the communication experience of user equipment
