[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201910755817.2, filed in China on August 15, 2019, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] This disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a measurement method, terminal equipment, and network equipment. Background Technology

[0004] With the rapid development of User Equipment (UE) technology, the number and intelligence of sensors on UEs are increasing. In many scenarios, UEs can accurately sense whether they are in motion and, if so, their speed and other related motion information. Furthermore, UEs can obtain their own motion status, environmental information, or beam coverage information through various onboard sensors. Based on this information, they can perform more control optimizations on the UE, such as optimizing Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurements for UEs in idle or inactive states, thereby achieving power saving.

[0005] For UEs in stationary, low-speed, or high-speed motion states, idle-state RRM measurements generally follow a uniform trigger condition for neighboring cell measurements. Measurements for both the local and neighboring cells adhere to uniform measurement requirements; that is, there is no differentiated configuration for different UE motion states, environments, or beam coverage areas. However, for some UEs in stationary states or with very low movement speeds, if the channel environment remains relatively unchanged, this is detrimental to power saving. For these UEs, an RRM measurement relaxation mode is introduced to address power saving considerations. This mode relaxes RRM measurements, such as extending the measurement period or reducing the number of samples for Layer 1 measurements. The transition from normal RRM measurement mode to RRM measurement relaxation mode can be determined based on the UE's state or network device configuration thresholds.

[0006] Therefore, a measurement scheme is needed to enable the UE to effectively adjust the RRM measurement mode and avoid the ping-pong effect in measurement.

[0007] Summary of the Invention

[0049] Further optionally, the measurement method of this disclosure embodiment may further include the following before step 101 above:

[0050] Send a measurement adjustment request to the network device. The measurement adjustment request includes a request to obtain parameters related to the measurement adjustment.

[0051] It is understandable that by actively sending measurement adjustment requests to network devices, measurement adjustment-related parameters for adjusting the RRM measurement mode can be obtained, so as to adjust the measurement mode according to the specific instructions of the network devices.

[0052] Alternatively, the aforementioned measurement adjustment request may further include a request for obtaining configuration information of the RRM measurement mode in order to perform RRM measurement according to the relevant specific configuration.

The target objects include at least one of the carrier, frequency, frequency band and bandwidth.

[0064] (6) Use an additional reference signal for RRM measurement.

[0065] The aforementioned RRM measurement enhancement mode includes RRM measurement enhancement modes when the terminal device is in Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state, RRC idle state, or RRC inactive state. The relevant configuration parameters for this RRM measurement enhancement mode may include one of the following:

[0066] (1) The measurement cycle in the enhanced RRM measurement mode is shorter than the measurement cycle in the normal RRM measurement mode.

[0067] Optionally, the RRM measurement relaxation mode includes a time-domain RRM measurement relaxation mode, and the extension of the measurement period may include the extension of the L1 layer measurement period, the L2 layer measurement period, or the L3 layer measurement period.

[0074] (6) Use an additional reference signal for RRM measurement.

[0075] Optionally, in the measurement method of this embodiment, step 103 can be specifically executed as follows:

[0076] Adjust relevant parameters based on measurements, and adjust the RRM measurement mode of at least one of the terminal equipment in the local cell and neighboring cells.

[0077] It is understandable that when adjusting the RRM measurement mode based on the relevant parameters, it may involve at least one of the RRM measurement modes of the current cell and the RRM measurement modes of neighboring cells.

[0078] Specifically, when RRM measurements are performed in neighboring cells, the aforementioned RRM measurement relaxation mode may include at least one of the RRM measurement relaxation mode of this cell and the RRM measurement relaxation mode of neighboring cells, and the aforementioned RRM measurement enhancement mode may include at least one of the RRM measurement enhancement mode of this cell and the RRM measurement enhancement mode of neighboring cells. Or

[0079] When there are no RRM measurements in neighboring cells, the above-mentioned RRM measurement relaxation mode includes the RRM measurement relaxation mode of this cell, and the above-mentioned RRM measurement enhancement mode includes the RRM measurement enhancement mode of this cell.

[0080] Optionally, in the measurement method of this embodiment, the measurement adjustment related parameters configured by the network device may include various types of parameters, so that the terminal device can effectively adjust the RRM measurement mode according to different specific measurement adjustment related parameters, while ensuring the flexibility of the network device configuration.

[0081] The aforementioned measurement adjustment parameters may include at least one of the following: measurement adjustment threshold, measurement adjustment duration parameter, preset cell, and preset beam coverage.

[0082] Optionally, step 103 above can be performed differently depending on the measurement and adjustment of relevant parameters. The specific implementation can be described in conjunction with the following embodiments.

[0083] Specific Implementation Example 1

[0084] Optionally, in this specific embodiment, the above-mentioned measurement adjustment related parameters include a measurement adjustment threshold, then step 103 can be specifically executed as follows:

[0085] The RRM measurement mode is adjusted based on the measurement adjustment threshold and the RRM measurement results, wherein the measurement adjustment threshold includes at least one of a first threshold and a second threshold.

[0086] Understandably, the decision to adjust the RRM measurement mode can be based on the measurement adjustment threshold configured in the network device. In other words, by determining whether the conditions based on the measurement adjustment threshold are met, the switching and adjustment of the RRM measurement mode can be triggered to avoid the ping-pong effect in measurement and thus avoid frequent adjustments to the RRM measurement configuration of the terminal device.

[0087] Optionally, the above RRM measurement results may include at least: Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), Signal-to-Noise and Interference Ratio (SINR), and Channel Quality Indicator (CQI).

[0088] Optionally, the above RRM measurement results include at least one of the following:

[0089] The first result obtained by performing RRM measurement on the local cell of the terminal device includes at least one of the cell measurement result and the beam measurement result;

[0090] The second result obtained by performing RRM measurements on neighboring cells of the terminal device includes at least one of the cell measurement results and the beam measurement results.

[0091] It is understood that the above RRM measurement results include at least one of the RRM measurement results of this cell and the RRM measurement results of neighboring cells. Further, the RRM measurement results may include the cell measurement results and the beam measurement results, wherein the beam measurement results may be obtained based on RRM measurements of the Synchronization Signal and PBCH Block (SSB), Channel State Information RS (CSI-RS), Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS), or other reference reference signals.

[0092] Optionally, different thresholds can be used to compare the RRM measurement results of the current cell and the RRM measurement results of neighboring cells. That is, when comparing with different thresholds, the RRM measurement results of the current cell and the RRM measurement results of neighboring cells can be used respectively; or only the RRM measurement results of the current cell or the RRM measurement results of neighboring cells can be compared with the corresponding thresholds.

[0093] The term "this cell" includes the current serving cell of the terminal device, the idle cell, or the inactive cell; the term "neighboring cells" includes intra-frequency neighboring cells, inter-frequency neighboring cells, and inter-RAT (Radio Access Technology) cells.

[0094] Optionally, the aforementioned measurement adjustment thresholds, namely the first threshold and the second threshold, can be the same or different. At least one of the first and second thresholds can be the same as or different from the threshold of the S-measure (S-criterion measurement) mechanism that controls the RRM measurement of neighboring cells in the current connected, idle, or inactive state. Optionally, when the aforementioned measurement adjustment thresholds are used to control the adjustment of the RRM measurement mode of this cell, the first threshold can be higher than or equal to the threshold of the S-measure mechanism, or the first threshold can be lower than or equal to the threshold of the S-measure mechanism. Further optionally, when the aforementioned measurement adjustment thresholds are used to control the adjustment of the RRM measurement mode of neighboring cells, both the first and second thresholds are lower than or equal to the threshold of the S-measure mechanism.

[0095] Optionally, if the first threshold and the second threshold are different, they can have different magnitude relationships depending on the specific circumstances. Further, alternatively, the second threshold may be lower than the first threshold.

[0096] Optionally, the above scheme of adjusting the RRM measurement mode based on the measurement adjustment threshold and RRM measurement results can be implemented as follows:

[0097] If the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, the first RRM measurement mode is used for RRM measurement. The first RRM measurement mode includes RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM normal measurement mode.

[0098] It is understandable that if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM normal measurement mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement. Alternatively, if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device can also use the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0099] or

[0100] If the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, the second RRM measurement mode is used for RRM measurement. The second RRM measurement mode includes the normal RRM measurement mode or the enhanced RRM measurement mode.

[0101] It is understandable that if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device can use the normal RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the relaxed RRM measurement mode. Alternatively, if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device can also use the enhanced RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the relaxed RRM measurement mode or the normal RRM measurement mode.

[0102] Specific Implementation Example 2

[0103] Optionally, in this second specific embodiment, the above-mentioned measurement adjustment related parameters may further include a first measurement adjustment duration parameter in addition to the measurement adjustment threshold. Then, the above-mentioned scheme of adjusting the RRM measurement mode based on the measurement adjustment threshold and the RRM measurement result can be specifically implemented as follows:

[0104] The RRM measurement mode is adjusted based on the measurement adjustment threshold, RRM measurement results, and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter, which includes a first preset time or a second preset time.

[0105] Understandably, the decision to adjust the RRM measurement mode can be made based on the measurement adjustment threshold and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter configured in the network device. In other words, by determining whether the conditions based on the measurement adjustment threshold and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter are met, the switching adjustment of the RRM measurement mode can be triggered, thus avoiding the ping-pong effect in measurement and preventing the terminal device from frequently adjusting the RRM measurement configuration.

[0106] Further optionally, the above scheme for adjusting the RRM measurement mode based on the measurement adjustment threshold, the RRM measurement result, and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter can be specifically implemented as follows:

[0107] If the RRM measurement results are all higher than or equal to the first threshold within the first preset time, then the first RRM measurement mode is used to perform RRM measurement. The first RRM measurement mode includes RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM normal measurement mode.

[0108] It is understandable that if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold within the first preset time, the terminal device can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM normal measurement mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement. Alternatively, if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold within the first preset time, the terminal device can also use the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0109] or

[0110] If the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold within the second preset time, then the second RRM measurement mode is used for RRM measurement. The second RRM measurement mode includes the normal RRM measurement mode or the enhanced RRM measurement mode.

[0111] It is understandable that if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold for a second preset time, the terminal device can use the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode to perform RRM measurement. Alternatively, if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold for a second preset time, the terminal device can also use the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0112] Specific Implementation Example 3

[0113] Optionally, in this specific embodiment three, the above-mentioned measurement adjustment related parameters may further include a first measurement adjustment duration parameter in addition to the measurement adjustment threshold. Therefore, the scheme of adjusting the RRM measurement mode based on the measurement adjustment threshold, the RRM measurement result, and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter may be further executed as follows:

[0114] If the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, and the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the second threshold within a first preset time, then the first RRM measurement mode is used to perform RRM measurement. The first RRM measurement mode includes RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM normal measurement mode.

[0115] It is understood that if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, and the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the second threshold for a first preset time, the terminal device can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM normal measurement mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement. Alternatively, if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, and the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the second threshold for a first preset time, the terminal device can also use the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0116] or

[0117] If the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, and the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the first threshold for a second preset time, then the second RRM measurement mode is used for RRM measurement. The second RRM measurement mode includes the normal RRM measurement mode or the enhanced RRM measurement mode.

[0118] It is understood that if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, and the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the first threshold for a second preset time, the terminal device can use the normal RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the relaxed RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement. Alternatively, if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, and the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the first threshold for a second preset time, the terminal device can also use the enhanced RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; otherwise, it can use the relaxed RRM measurement mode or the normal RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0119] Specific Implementation Example 4

[0120] Optionally, in this specific embodiment four, the aforementioned measurement adjustment related parameters include a second measurement adjustment duration parameter, wherein the second measurement adjustment duration parameter includes a third preset time. Then, step 103 can be specifically executed as follows:

[0121] After a third preset time has elapsed since the start of RRM measurement using the third RRM measurement mode, the RRM measurement is switched to the fourth RRM measurement mode. The third RRM measurement mode includes either an RRM measurement relaxation mode or an RRM measurement enhancement mode, while the fourth RRM measurement mode includes an RRM normal measurement mode.

[0122] It is understandable that the decision to adjust the RRM measurement mode can be made based on the second measurement adjustment duration parameter configured in the network device. In other words, the switch to adjust the RRM measurement mode can be triggered by determining whether the conditions based on the second measurement adjustment duration parameter are met. Specifically, after the terminal device performs RRM measurement in RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM measurement enhancement mode for a third preset time, it can automatically switch back to RRM normal measurement mode to avoid the ping-pong effect of measurement and thus avoid the terminal device frequently adjusting the RRM measurement configuration.

[0123] Optionally, the aforementioned third preset time includes one of the following:

[0124] (1) Setting the RRM measurement timer.

[0125] It is understandable that when the terminal device starts RRM measurement using RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM measurement enhancement mode, starting the RRM measurement timer will automatically return to the normal RRM measurement mode if the RRM measurement timer times out.

[0126] (2) The time corresponding to the first preset number of RRM measurement cycles.

[0127] It is understood that after the terminal device performs RRM measurement using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode for the first preset number of RRM measurement cycles, it will automatically return to the RRM normal measurement mode. Specifically, the total number of RRM measurement cycles performed using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode can be counted by the RRM measurement cycle counter.

[0128] (3) The time required to perform RRM measurement on the second preset number of RRM measurement sampling samples.

[0129] It is understood that after the terminal device performs RRM measurements on the second preset number of RRM measurement samples using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode, it will automatically return to the RRM normal measurement mode. Specifically, the total number of RRM measurement samples performed using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode can be counted by the RRM measurement sample counter.

[0130] It should be noted that, in addition to the above-mentioned cases, the third preset time can also be a time parameter value that can be directly configured for network devices.

[0131] Specific Implementation Example 5

[0132] Optionally, in this specific embodiment five, the above-mentioned measurement adjustment related parameters include a preset cell or a preset beam coverage range, then step 103 can be specifically executed as follows:

[0133] If the terminal device moves into the coverage area of ​​a preset cell or preset beam, RRM measurement is performed using the fifth RRM measurement mode, which includes either an RRM measurement relaxation mode or an RRM measurement enhancement mode; or

[0134] If the terminal device moves out of the preset cell or preset beam coverage area, the sixth RRM measurement mode is used for RRM measurement. The sixth RRM measurement mode includes the normal RRM measurement mode.

[0135] It is understandable that the decision to adjust the RRM measurement mode can be based on the preset cell or preset beam coverage area configured in the network equipment. In other words, by determining whether the conditions based on the preset cell or preset beam coverage area are met, the RRM measurement mode switching and adjustment are triggered to avoid the ping-pong effect in measurements, thereby preventing the terminal equipment from frequently adjusting its RRM measurement configuration. Specifically, the terminal equipment can receive the reference signal of the corresponding cell or beam within the aforementioned preset beam coverage area.

[0136] It should be noted that the values ​​of the above preset times can be set according to the actual situation.

[0137] Through the measurement method of this disclosure embodiment, the terminal device can automatically switch and adjust relevant parameters according to the measurement adjustment configured by the network device, at least between RRM measurement relaxation mode and RRM normal measurement mode, between RRM measurement relaxation mode and RRM measurement enhancement mode, and between RRM normal measurement mode and RRM measurement enhancement mode.

[0138] Figure 2 shows a flowchart of a measurement method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. This method can be executed by an electronic device, such as a network device. In other words, the method can be executed by software or hardware installed on the network device. As shown in Figure 2, the method may include the following steps:

[0139] Step 201: Send measurement adjustment related parameters to the terminal device, wherein the measurement adjustment related parameters are used to adjust the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement mode of the terminal device.

[0140] In this embodiment of the disclosure, by configuring measurement adjustment related parameters for the terminal device, the terminal device can effectively switch and adjust between different RRM measurement modes according to the measurement adjustment related parameters. This saves power consumption of the terminal device, avoids the ping-pong effect of measurement, further avoids the terminal device frequently adjusting the RRM measurement configuration, and maintains the flexibility of network device configuration.

[0144] Optionally, the measurement method of this embodiment may further include the following before step 201 above:

[0145] Receive a measurement adjustment request sent by the terminal device. The measurement adjustment request includes a request to obtain measurement adjustment related parameters.

[0146] It is understandable that, based on the measurement adjustment request from the terminal device, measurement adjustment-related parameters for adjusting the RRM measurement mode are configured for the terminal device.

[0147] Alternatively, the aforementioned measurement adjustment request may further include a request to obtain configuration information for the RRM measurement mode, so that the terminal device can perform RRM measurements according to the relevant specific configuration.

[0148] Optionally, in the measurement method of this embodiment, the above-mentioned measurement adjustment related parameters are used to adjust the RRM measurement mode of at least one of the local cell and neighboring cells of the terminal device.

[0149] It is understood that the measurement adjustment parameters configured for the terminal device can be used to adjust at least one of the RRM measurement modes of the terminal device's local cell and the RRM measurement modes of neighboring cells.

[0150] Optionally, in the measurement method of this disclosure embodiment, the above-mentioned measurement adjustment related parameters include one of the following:

[0151] (1) Parameters configured separately for terminal devices, i.e. Per-UE configuration. In other words, network devices can configure separate measurement and adjustment parameters for each terminal device to make the parameters more suitable for terminal devices of different types, performance and configurations.

[0152] (2) The parameters configured for the current cell of the terminal device, i.e., Per-cell configuration. In other words, the network device can configure consistent parameters within a cell range, and the terminal device applies the relevant parameters within the current cell range.

[0153] (3) Parameters configured within each frequency, carrier, band, or bandwidth range, i.e., Per-frequency, carrier, band, or BWP configuration, meaning that network devices are configured with consistent parameters within a frequency, carrier, band, or BWP range.

[0154] (4) Parameters configured for each terminal device within each frequency, carrier, band, or bandwidth portion, Per-UE per-frequency, carrier, band, or BWP configuration, that is, the network device can configure consistent parameters for each terminal device within a frequency, carrier, band, or BWP range.

[0155] (5) The parameters configured for each beam corresponding to the terminal device, i.e., the Per-Beam configuration, means that the terminal device can apply these parameters when performing RRM measurements on the corresponding beam.

[0156] Optionally, in the measurement method of this embodiment, the measurement adjustment related parameters configured by the network device may include various types of parameters, so that the terminal device can effectively adjust the RRM measurement mode according to different specific measurement adjustment related parameters, while ensuring the flexibility of the network device configuration.

[0157] The aforementioned measurement adjustment parameters include at least one of the following: measurement adjustment threshold, measurement adjustment duration parameter, preset cell, and preset beam coverage.

[0158] Optionally, in the measurement method of this disclosure embodiment, the above-mentioned RRM measurement mode includes at least one of RRM normal measurement mode, RRM measurement relaxation mode and RRM measurement enhancement mode.

[0159] The aforementioned RRM measurement relaxation mode can save power consumption of terminal devices. This RRM measurement relaxation mode can at least include situations where the terminal device is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state, an RRC idle state, or an RRC inactive state. The relevant configuration parameters for this RRM measurement relaxation mode can include one of the following:

[0160] (1) The measurement cycle in the RRM measurement relaxation mode is longer than the measurement cycle in the RRM normal measurement mode.

[0161] Optionally, the RRM measurement relaxation mode includes a time-domain RRM measurement relaxation mode, and the extension of the measurement period may include the extension of the L1 layer measurement period, the L2 layer measurement period, or the L3 layer measurement period.

[0162] (2) The number of samples taken in a measurement period under the RRM measurement relaxation mode is less than the number of samples taken in a measurement period under the RRM normal measurement mode.

[0163] Optionally, the RRM measurement relaxation mode includes a time-domain RRM measurement relaxation mode, and the number of samples in a measurement period includes the number of samples sampled at L1 level, L2 level, or L3 level.

[0164] (3) During the first preset time period, the measurement frequency in the RRM measurement relaxation mode is less than the measurement frequency in the RRM normal measurement mode.

[0165] Optionally, the measurement frequency can be 0, that is, no RRM measurement is performed during the fourth preset time period.

[0166] (4) The number of neighboring cells for RRM measurement in the relaxed mode is less than the number of neighboring cells for RRM measurement in the normal mode.

[0167] Optionally, neighboring cells may include intra-frequency neighboring cells, inter-frequency neighboring cells, or inter-RAT neighboring cells.

[0168] (5) The number of target objects for inter-frequency RRM measurement or inter-system measurement in the RRM measurement relaxation mode is less than the number of target objects for inter-frequency RRM measurement or inter-system measurement in the RRM normal measurement mode. The target objects include at least one of the carrier, frequency, frequency band and bandwidth.

[0169] (6) Use an additional reference signal to perform RRM measurements.

[0170] The aforementioned RRM measurement enhancement mode includes RRM measurement enhancement modes when the terminal device is in Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected state, RRC idle state, or RRC inactive state. The relevant configuration parameters for this RRM measurement enhancement mode may include one of the following:

[0171] (1) The measurement cycle in the enhanced RRM measurement mode is shorter than the measurement cycle in the normal RRM measurement mode.

[0172] Optionally, the RRM measurement relaxation mode includes a time-domain RRM measurement relaxation mode, and the extension of the measurement period may include the extension of the L1 layer measurement period, the L2 layer measurement period, or the L3 layer measurement period.

[0173] (2) The number of samples in a measurement cycle under the enhanced RRM measurement mode is greater than the number of samples in a measurement cycle under the normal RRM measurement mode.

[0174] Optionally, the RRM measurement relaxation mode includes a time-domain RRM measurement relaxation mode, and the number of samples in a measurement period includes the number of samples sampled at L1 level, L2 level, or L3 level.

[0175] (3) During the second preset time period, the measurement frequency in the RRM measurement enhancement mode is greater than the measurement frequency in the RRM normal measurement mode.

[0176] (4) The number of neighboring cells for RRM measurement in enhanced RRM measurement mode is greater than the number of neighboring cells for RRM measurement in normal RRM measurement mode.

[0177] Optionally, neighboring cells may include intra-frequency neighboring cells, inter-frequency neighboring cells, or inter-RAT neighboring cells.

[0178] (5) The number of target objects for inter-frequency RRM measurement or inter-system measurement in the enhanced RRM measurement mode is greater than the number of target objects for inter-frequency RRM measurement or inter-system measurement in the normal RRM measurement mode. The target objects include at least one of the carrier, frequency, frequency band and bandwidth.

[0179] (6) Use an additional reference signal to perform RRM measurements.

[0180] For example, when the measurement adjustment related parameters configured for the terminal device include a measurement adjustment threshold, the terminal device can adjust the RRM measurement mode according to the measurement adjustment threshold and the RRM measurement result, wherein the measurement adjustment threshold includes at least one of a first threshold and a second threshold.

[0181] In other words, the terminal device can determine whether to adjust the RRM measurement mode based on the measurement adjustment threshold configured in the network device. That is, by determining whether the conditions based on the measurement adjustment threshold are met, the switching and adjustment of the RRM measurement mode is triggered, avoiding the ping-pong effect of measurement and thus avoiding the terminal device from frequently adjusting the RRM measurement configuration.

[0182] Optionally, the aforementioned measurement adjustment thresholds, namely the first threshold and the second threshold, can be the same or different. At least one of the first and second thresholds can be the same as or different from the threshold of the S-measure (S-criterion measurement) mechanism that controls the RRM measurement of neighboring cells in the current connected, idle, or inactive state. Further optionally, when the aforementioned measurement adjustment thresholds are used to control the adjustment of the RRM measurement mode of this cell, the first threshold can be higher than or equal to the threshold of the S-measure mechanism, or the first threshold can be lower than or equal to the threshold of the S-measure mechanism. Further optionally, when the aforementioned measurement adjustment thresholds are used to control the adjustment of the RRM measurement mode of neighboring cells, both the first and second thresholds are lower than or equal to the threshold of the S-measure mechanism.

[0183] Optionally, if the first threshold and the second threshold are different, they can have different magnitude relationships depending on the specific circumstances. Further, alternatively, the second threshold may be lower than the first threshold.

[0184] More specifically, if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; or if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device can use the RRM normal measurement mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0185] For example, when the measurement adjustment related parameters configured for the terminal device include a measurement adjustment threshold and a first measurement adjustment duration parameter, the terminal device can adjust the RRM measurement mode according to the measurement adjustment threshold, the RRM measurement result, and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter. The first measurement adjustment duration parameter includes a third preset time or a fourth preset time.

[0186] In other words, the terminal device can determine whether to adjust the RRM measurement mode based on the measurement adjustment threshold and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter configured in the network device. That is, by determining whether the conditions based on the measurement adjustment threshold and the first measurement adjustment duration parameter are met, the switching adjustment of the RRM measurement mode is triggered, avoiding the ping-pong effect of measurement and thus avoiding the terminal device from frequently adjusting the RRM measurement configuration.

[0187] Specifically, if the RRM measurement results are all higher than or equal to the first threshold within a third preset time period, the terminal device can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; or if the RRM measurement results are all lower than or equal to the second threshold within a fourth preset time period, the terminal device can use the RRM normal measurement mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0188] or

[0189] Specifically, if the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the first threshold and the RRM measurement result is higher than or equal to the second threshold for a third preset time, the terminal device can use the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM normal measurement mode to perform RRM measurement; or if the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the second threshold and the RRM measurement result is lower than or equal to the first threshold for a fourth preset time, the terminal device can use the RRM normal measurement mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode to perform RRM measurement.

[0190] For example, when the measurement adjustment related parameters configured for the terminal device include a second measurement adjustment duration parameter, wherein the second measurement adjustment duration parameter includes a fifth preset time, the terminal device can switch to using the normal RRM measurement mode to perform RRM measurement after the fifth preset time when starting to use the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode for RRM measurement.

[0191] Optionally, the aforementioned fifth preset time includes one of the following:

[0192] (1) Setting the RRM measurement timer.

[0193] It is understandable that when the terminal device starts RRM measurement using RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM measurement enhancement mode, starting the RRM measurement timer will automatically return to the normal RRM measurement mode if the RRM measurement timer times out.

[0194] (2) The time corresponding to the first preset number of RRM measurement cycles.

[0195] It is understood that after the terminal device performs RRM measurement using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode for the first preset number of RRM measurement cycles, it will automatically return to the RRM normal measurement mode. Specifically, the total number of RRM measurement cycles performed using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode can be counted by the RRM measurement cycle counter.

[0196] (3) The time required to perform RRM measurement on the second preset number of RRM measurement sampling samples.

[0197] It is understood that after the terminal device performs RRM measurements on the second preset number of RRM measurement samples using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode, it will automatically return to the RRM normal measurement mode. Specifically, the total number of RRM measurement samples performed using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or the RRM measurement enhancement mode can be counted by the RRM measurement sample counter.

[0198] It should be noted that, in addition to the above-mentioned cases, the fifth preset time can also be a time parameter value that can be directly configured for network devices.

[0199] For example, when the measurement adjustment parameters configured for the terminal device include a preset cell or preset beam coverage area, the terminal device can perform RRM measurements using the RRM measurement relaxation mode or RRM measurement enhancement mode when moving into the preset cell or preset beam coverage area; or perform RRM measurements using the RRM normal measurement mode when moving out of the preset cell or preset beam coverage area.

[0200] It should be noted that the values ​​of the above preset times can be set according to the actual situation.

[0201] Through the measurement method of this disclosure embodiment, the network device configures measurement adjustment related parameters for the terminal device, so that the terminal device can automatically switch and adjust between at least the RRM measurement relaxation mode and the RRM normal measurement mode, the RRM measurement relaxation mode and the RRM measurement enhancement mode, and the RRM normal measurement mode and the RRM measurement enhancement mode according to the measurement adjustment related parameters.
