It should also be understood that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the “protocol” can refer to a standard protocol in the field of communications, for example, it can include the NR protocol and related protocols used in future communication systems, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0060] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the relevant technologies of the embodiments of the present disclosure are described below. The following relevant technologies are optional solutions that can be arbitrarily combined with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and they all fall within the protection scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0061] 1. Flexible / dynamic Time Division Duplexing (TDD) and Layer 3 (L3) Cross Link Interference (CLI) measurement and reporting based on Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP)

[0062] In flexible / dynamic TDD technology, each base station flexibly determines its own frame structure configuration based on its own uplink and downlink service characteristics. This can result in adjacent base stations having opposite uplink and downlink transmission directions at the same time. When adjacent base stations have opposite transmission directions at the same time, CLI between base stations and between terminals will occur.

[0063] For example, as shown in Figure 2, gNB1's frame structure is configured as {DDDSU}, and gNB2's frame structure is configured as {DSUUU}, where D represents a timeslot with downlink transmission (called a downlink timeslot), S represents a flexible timeslot, and U represents a timeslot with uplink transmission (called an uplink timeslot). In timeslot #2, gNB1 and gNB2 have opposite uplink and downlink transmission directions. gNB1's downlink transmission may interfere with gNB2's uplink reception, causing inter-base station CLI (CLI). The uplink transmission of an aggressor UE may interfere with the downlink reception of a neighboring victim UE, causing inter-UE CLI (CLI).

[0064] To suppress the aforementioned inter-UE CLI (UE-UE CLI), it is necessary to detect the interference strength of UE-UE CLI. To this end, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) R16 standardized a reference signal for measuring UE-UE CLI, referred to as CLI-RS. Specifically, SRS can be used as CLI-RS.

[0065] As shown in Figure 3, the serving cell of the interfering terminal corresponds to gNB2, and the serving cell of the victim terminal corresponds to gNB1. gNB2 sends an SRS configuration to at least one interfering terminal. This SRS configuration is used by the interfering terminal to transmit an SRS. For multiple interfering terminals, different interfering terminals have different SRS configurations, and accordingly, different interfering terminals transmit different SRSs. gNB1 obtains the at least one SRS configuration and indicates it to the victim terminal via standardized CLI-SRS signaling (SRS-ResourceListConfigCLI IE). The content of the CLI-SRS signaling is shown in Table 1 below.

[0066] Table 1

[0067] The victim terminal measures the SRS signal strength (i.e., SRS RSRP) based on at least one SRS configuration in the received CLI-SRS signaling. Based on the reporting trigger (cli-EventTriggered or cli-Periodical), it reports the strongest maxReportCLI SRS resources and their layer 3 filtered measurement results to gNB1. For details on the relevant CLI measurement reporting configuration, see Table 2 below.

[0068] Table 2

[0069] 2. Channel State Information (CSI) measurement and reporting based on layer 1-reference signal receiving power (L1-RSRP) and layer 1-signal to interference plus noise ratio (L1-SINR)

[0070] 3GPP supports the measurement and reporting of L1-RSRP and L1-SINR of CSI. The reporting method of L1-RSRP of CSI is as follows:

[0071] If nrofReportedRS=1, the L1-RSRP reported by the terminal (the reported L1-RSRP value) is represented by 7 bits, with a value range of [-140, -44]dBm and a step size of 1dB;

[0072] If nrofReportedRS>1, the terminal uses differential L1-RSRP (Differential RSRP) reporting. The maximum L1-RSRP is represented by 7 bits, with a value range of [-140, -44] dBm and a step size of 1 dB. The differential L1-RSRP is represented by 4 bits. The differential L1-RSRP uses the maximum L1-RSRP as a reference and is calculated with a step size of 2 dB.

[0073] L1-RSRP supports periodic reporting (Periodic Reporting), semi-persistent reporting (Semi-Persistent Reporting) and aperiodic reporting (Aperiodic Reporting).

[0074] In particular, the terminal will indicate the resource set associated with the maximum L1-RSRP, and the CSI-RS resource indicator (CSI-RS Resource Indicator, CRI) or SSB resource indicator (SSBRI) of the indicated resource set will be presented first.

[0075] Table 3 below shows the bit width of relevant fields in uplink control information (UCI) related to L1-RSRP reporting.

[0076] Table 3

[0077] in, is the number of CSI-RS resources in the corresponding resource set; It is the number of synchronization signal blocks (SS / PBCH blocks, SSB) in the corresponding resource set that are configured to report 'ssb-Index-RSRP'.

[0078] The mapping order of CSI fields related to L1-RSRP reporting in a report is shown in Table 4-1, Table 4-2, and Table 4-3 below:

[0079] Table 4-1

[0080] Table 4-2

[0081] Table 4-3

[0082] 3. NR duplex enhanced

[0083] The duplex enhancement project studies subband non-overlapping full duplex (SBFD) while taking into account the flexible / dynamic TDD technology evolution.

[0084] SBFD (SBFD) allows for both uplink and downlink transmissions on a symbol within a TDD carrier. Compared to the traditional downlink-dominated TDD frame structure, SBFD introduces more uplink and downlink transmission opportunities, significantly reducing transmission latency. For example, as shown in Figure 4, within a 100MHz TDD carrier, symbols #1, #2, and #3 are used for both uplink and downlink transmissions. SBFD systems also face the serious problem of inter-terminal CLI (CLI) issues.

[0085] The duplex enhancement project will study L1-based inter-terminal CLI measurement and reporting technology, using SRS-RSRP as the measurement quantity and the CSI measurement and reporting framework as the measurement and reporting mechanism. One approach is to refer to the CSI-RS L1-RSRP reporting method and directly replace the CSI-RS L1-RSRP reporting with the SRS L1-RSRP reporting. For example, the terminal adopts a differential SRS L1-RSRP reporting technology, that is, the terminal reports the SRS resource indicators (SRS Resource Indicator, SRI) and RSRP of the M strongest SRSs, where the L1-RSRP of the strongest SRS is reported in absolute value, which can be represented by 7 bits, with a value range of [-140, -44] dBm and a step size of 1 dB; while the L1-RSRP of other SRSs is reported in a differential manner, and the differential L1-RSRP can be represented by 4 bits. The differential L1-RSRP is calculated with the strongest L1-RSRP as a reference and a step size of 2 dB.

[0086] Table 5 below shows the mapping order of CSI fields related to SRS L1-RSRP reporting in a report:

[0087] Table 5

[0088] Table 6 below shows the bit width of the relevant field in the UCI related to the SRS L1-RSRP report.

[0089] Table 6

[0090] in, is the number of SRS resources in the corresponding resource set.

[0091] However, the purpose of "L1-based CLI measurement and reporting" differs from that of "L1-based CSI measurement and reporting." The purpose of "L1-based CSI measurement and reporting" is to identify the best channel quality and its associated beam direction between the terminal and the serving cell, so that the serving cell can subsequently select the best beam direction to serve the terminal. The purpose of "L1-based CLI measurement and reporting" is to identify the CLI situation between terminals, so that when the serving cell subsequently schedules potentially interfered terminals for downlink reception, it can avoid potential inter-terminal CLI interference sources through intra-base station or inter-base station scheduling coordination mechanisms, thereby ensuring the downlink communication quality of potentially interfered terminals.

[0092] As shown in Figure 5, for a potential victim UE2 performing downlink reception, UE1 and UE3 performing uplink transmissions are potential sources of inter-UE CLI interference for UE2. UE3 and UE2 contribute to inter-cell CLI interference, while UE1 and UE2 contribute to intra-cell CLI interference. To identify inter-cell / intra-cell CLI interference, UE1 and UE3 can both transmit SRSs, denoted as SRS1 and SRS3, respectively. gNB1, the base station corresponding to UE2's serving cell, configures UE2 to measure SRS1 and SRS3 and report the RSRPs of SRS1 and SRS3. If gNB1 identifies UE1 and UE2 as a strong interference pair, gNB1 can implement scheduling to mitigate inter-UE CLI interference by avoiding simultaneous transmission and reception between UE1 and UE2 (i.e., preventing UE1's uplink transmission from overlapping with UE2's downlink reception, or UE1's downlink reception from overlapping with UE2's uplink transmission). For example, the base station can schedule UE1 and UE2 to transmit and receive simultaneously, or schedule only one of UE1 and UE2 to communicate at a given time. Conversely, if gNB1 identifies that the CLI interference between UE1 and UE2 is weak, gNB1 can freely schedule the transmission direction of UE1 and UE2. Similarly, if gNB1 identifies that UE2 and UE3 are a strong interference pair, gNB1 needs to communicate with gNB2 to jointly determine or coordinate the scheduling behavior of UE2 and UE3 (i.e., the transmission direction at a given time). Conversely, if gNB1 identifies that UE2 and UE3 are a weak interference pair, gNB1 and gNB2 can independently determine the transmission direction of UE2 and UE3.

[0093] From the above analysis, we can see that strong or weak inter-terminal CLI interference is very helpful for base station scheduling decisions. However, both L3-based CLI-SRS reporting and L1-based CSI reporting support reporting the strongest interference source but not the weakest interference source, hindering the base station's ability to optimize scheduling decisions based on inter-terminal CLI interference characteristics. To address this issue, the following technical solutions are proposed in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0094] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the technical solutions of the present disclosure are described in detail below through specific embodiments. The above related technologies can be combined with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure as optional solutions, and all of them fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present disclosure. The embodiments of the present disclosure include at least part of the following contents.

[0095] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure introduces a first threshold and a second threshold, where the first threshold is greater than the second threshold. The first threshold and the second threshold are used to define the interval in which the measurement value of the reference signal is located.

[0096] The reference signals include but are not limited to: cross-link interference CLI reference signal RS (which can be recorded as CLI-RS), inter-subband cross-link interference reference signal (which can be recorded as inter-subband CLI-RS), inter-terminal sub-band cross-link interference reference signal (which can be recorded as UE-UE-inter-subband CLI-RS), SRS, CLI-SRS, inter-subband CLI-SRS, UE-UE-inter-subband CLI-SRS, etc.

[0097] The measurement methods include but are not limited to: L1 (layer 1) and L3 (layer 3).

[0098] The measurement values ​​include, but are not limited to: RSRP, Reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ), Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI), etc.

[0099] In the following embodiments, to simplify the description, the reference signal is CLI-RS, and the measurement value is RSRP.

[0100] For example, as shown in Figure 6, assume that a potentially interfered terminal is configured to measure the RSRP of eight CLI-RSs and report the four CLI-RSs with the largest RSRPs. In Figure 6, the CLI-RSs reported by the terminal are represented by gray circles, and the CLI-RSs not reported by the terminal are represented by white circles.

[0101] Case A: When the RSRP of the CLI-RS is equal to or greater than the first threshold, it indicates that the inter-terminal CLI interference between the potential interfering terminal sending the CLI-RS and the potential victim terminal is particularly strong. The base station must adopt a special scheduling / coordinated scheduling mechanism, such as but not limited to, the base station can avoid scheduling these two terminals to transmit and receive at the same time; or the base station can reduce the transmit power of the potential interfering terminal through a power control mechanism, or instruct the victim terminal to lower the MCS level for receiving downlink services.

[0102] Case B: When the RSRP of the CLI-RS is equal to or less than the second threshold, the inter-terminal CLI interference between the potential interfering terminal sending the CLI-RS and the potential victim terminal is extremely weak and can be almost ignored. The base station can freely schedule the transmission direction of these two terminals without any special processing.

[0103] Case C: When the RSRP of the CLI-RS is between the first and second thresholds, it indicates that there is some inter-terminal CLI interference between the potential interfering terminal sending the CLI-RS and the potential victim terminal. When performing scheduling, the base station will try to use some of the special scheduling / coordinated scheduling mechanisms described above (best effort). If the base station is unable to implement the above scheduling / coordinated scheduling behavior, the downlink reception performance of the victim terminal may be reduced to a certain extent, but normal operation can still be maintained.

[0104] As shown in Figure 6, the terminal only reports the four CLI-RSs with the largest RSRP. In Examples 1 and 2 of Figure 6, the base station cannot identify and confirm whether all or part of the four unreported CLI-RSs belong to the interval where the CLI interference between terminals is negligible (i.e., corresponding to the above-mentioned case B); in Example 2 of Figure 6, the base station cannot identify and confirm whether some of the four unreported CLI-RSs still belong to the interval where the CLI interference between terminals is extremely strong (i.e., corresponding to the above-mentioned case A). Both of the above problems are not conducive to the base station optimizing the scheduling decision based on the characteristics of CLI interference between terminals. Therefore, the terminal needs to report the relationship between the RSRP of each CLI-RS and the first threshold and / or the second threshold, or the terminal needs to report the range of the RSRP of each CLI-RS.

[0105] It should be noted that the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure is applicable to scenarios where CLI exists between terminals, including but not limited to: flexible / dynamic TDD, subband non-overlapping Full Duplex (SBFD), subband partial-overlapping Full Duplex, subband overlapping Full Duplex, and full duplex in the general sense.

[0106] It should be noted that the "interference" described in the embodiments of the present disclosure includes but is not limited to cross-link interference (CLI), terminal-to-terminal CLI (UE-UE CLI), terminal-to-subband CLI (UE-UE intra-subband CLI), terminal-to-subband CLI (UE-UE inter-subband CLI), etc.

[0107] It should be noted that the reference signals (RS) described in the embodiments of the present disclosure include but are not limited to CLI-RS, SRS, etc. In some cases, RS and RS resources can be described interchangeably.

[0108] The measurement value of the RS may represent the signal strength, channel quality, interference condition, etc. between the “terminal sending the RS” and the “terminal receiving the RS”.

[0109] It should be noted that the network device described in the embodiments of the present disclosure refers to the base station corresponding to the serving cell of the terminal. In some cases, the network device, network, base station, and serving cell can be described interchangeably.

[0110] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, “less than or equal to” means “less than or equal to.” In the embodiments of the present disclosure, “greater than or equal to” means “greater than or equal to.”

[0111] FIG7 is a flow chart of a measurement reporting method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG7 , the measurement reporting method includes:

[0112] Step 701: The terminal performs interference measurement.

[0113] In some implementations, before step 701 , the terminal receives first configuration information sent by the network device.

[0115] In some implementations, the measurement reporting configuration includes measurement resource configuration and reporting resource configuration. The measurement resource configuration includes, for example, time domain, frequency domain, and sequence configurations of measurement resources (i.e., RS resources). The reporting resource configuration includes periodic reporting resource configuration and aperiodic reporting resource configuration.

[0116] In step 701, the terminal performs interference measurement based on the measurement resource configuration. Specifically, the terminal measures multiple RSs configured in the measurement resource configuration to obtain measurement values ​​(ie, measurement results) of the multiple RSs.

[0117] Step 702: The terminal reports the first information and / or the second information to the network device based on the measurement result.

[0127] Here, the second information is used to determine the measurement values ​​of M RSs, where M is a positive integer.

[0128] In some implementations, before step 801 , the network device sends first configuration information to the terminal.

[0129] Here, the first configuration information includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: measurement reporting configuration, measurement configuration, reporting configuration, a first threshold and a second threshold; wherein the measurement configuration is used for the terminal to perform interference measurement, and the reporting configuration is used for the terminal to report the first information and / or the second information based on the measurement results.

[0130] In some implementations, the measurement reporting configuration includes measurement resource configuration and reporting resource configuration. The measurement resource configuration includes, for example, time domain, frequency domain, and sequence configurations of measurement resources (i.e., RS resources). The reporting resource configuration includes periodic reporting resource configuration and aperiodic reporting resource configuration.

[0131] FIG9 is a flow chart of a third embodiment of the measurement reporting method provided in the present disclosure. As shown in FIG9 , the measurement reporting method includes:

[0132] Step 901: The network device sends first configuration information to the terminal.

[0133] Here, the first configuration information includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: measurement reporting configuration, measurement configuration, reporting configuration, first threshold, and second threshold. The measurement configuration is used by the terminal to perform interference measurement, and the reporting configuration is used by the terminal to report the first information and / or the second information based on the measurement results.

[0134] In some implementations, the measurement reporting configuration includes measurement resource configuration and reporting resource configuration. The measurement resource configuration includes, for example, time domain, frequency domain, and sequence configurations of measurement resources (i.e., RS resources). The reporting resource configuration includes periodic reporting resource configuration and aperiodic reporting resource configuration.

[0135] Step 902: The terminal performs interference measurement.

[0136] Here, the terminal performs interference measurement based on the measurement resource configuration. Specifically, the terminal measures multiple RSs configured in the measurement resource configuration to obtain measurement values ​​(ie, measurement results) of the multiple RSs.

[0137] Step 903: The terminal reports the first information and / or the second information to the network device based on the measurement result.

[0138] Here, the first information is used to determine (or indicate) at least one of the following:

[0139] The range of the measured values ​​of N RSs;

[0140] Relationship between measurement values ​​of N RSs and the first threshold and / or the second threshold, where N is a positive integer.

[0141] Here, the second information is used to determine the measurement values ​​of M RSs, where M is a positive integer.

[0142] Step 904: The network device makes a scheduling decision based on the first information and / or second information reported by the terminal.

[0143] For example, when the RSRP of a certain RS reported by UE1 is equal to or greater than the first threshold, and the RS is sent by UE2, the network device determines that UE1 and UE2 are a strong interference pair. The network device will try to avoid scheduling UE1 and UE2 to transmit and receive at the same time; or, if it is necessary to schedule UE1 and UE2 to transmit and receive at the same time, the network device can reduce the transmission power of the potential interfering UE (UE2 or UE1) through the power control mechanism, or instruct the interfered UE (UE1 or UE2) to reduce the MCS level of the downlink service received. Note that although the RS measurement value reported by UE1 reflects the interference of UE2 on UE1, based on the principle of channel reciprocity, UE1 and UE are potential interference sources to each other. That is, if UE1 is uplink and UE2 is downlink, UE1 is the interfering terminal and UE2 is the interfered terminal; conversely, if UE2 is uplink and UE1 is downlink, UE2 is the interfering terminal and UE1 is the interfered terminal. That is, who is the interferer and who is the interfered party between UE1 and UE2 depends on the base station scheduling, not on who reports the interference measurement result.

[0144] For example, when the RSRP of a certain RS reported by UE1 is equal to or less than the second threshold, wherein the RS is sent by UE2, the network device determines that UE1 and UE2 are a weak interference pair and freely schedules the transmission direction of UE1 and UE2 without any special processing.

[0145] For example, when the RSRP of a certain RS reported by UE1 is between the first threshold and the second threshold, wherein the RS is sent by UE2, the network device will try to adopt some of the special scheduling / coordinated scheduling mechanisms introduced above (best effort) when making scheduling.

[0146] The specific implementation scheme of the first information and the second information is described below. It should be noted that the following specific implementation scheme of the first information and the second information can be combined with the measurement reporting method related to the above Figure 7 in any way, and can also be combined with the measurement reporting method related to the above Figure 8 in any way, and can also be combined with the measurement reporting method related to the above Figure 9 in any way.

[0172] Options 1-4

[0173] The first information includes first indication information, wherein: the first indication information is used to indicate the value range of the measurement values ​​of N RSs; or, the first indication information is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of N RSs and the first threshold and / or the second threshold, and the first threshold is greater than the second threshold.

[0174] Here, the value range of the measurement value indicated by the first indication information includes:

[0175] If the measured value is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the range of the measured value is the first interval;

[0176] and / or, if the measured value is less than, equal to, or less than a second threshold, the range of the measured value is a second interval;

[0178] Here, the relationship between the measurement value indicated by the first indication information and the first threshold and / or the second threshold includes at least one of the following relationships:

[0179] The measured value is greater than or equal to or greater than the first threshold;

[0182] Note that the first indication information is used to indicate the value range of the measurement values ​​of the N RSs, which means that the first indication information is used to indicate the value range of each RS measurement value in the N RS measurement values.

[0183] The first indication information is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of the N RSs and the first threshold and / or the second threshold, which means that the first indication information is used to indicate the relationship between each RS measurement value in the measurement values ​​of the N RSs and the first threshold and / or the second threshold.

[0185] The first indication information includes L bits. In some embodiments, the value of L is less than or equal to Operator represents a round-up, where L is a positive integer. It should be noted that the reserved value described above refers to a value of L bits as the reserved value.

[0186] The above solutions 1-1 to 1-4 describe several specific implementation solutions of the first information. Regarding the relationship between the N RSs indicated by the first information and the M RSs indicated by the second information, there may be the following specific implementation solutions.

[0187] Plan 2-1

[0188] The N RSs are the N RSs that the terminal is configured to measure, and the M RSs are the M RSs with the largest measurement values ​​among the N RSs.

[0189] In some embodiments, M takes the third value. In other embodiments, M takes the minimum value between the third value and the fourth value.

[0190] Here, the third value represents the number of RSs among the N RSs whose measurement values ​​are equal to or greater than the first threshold.

[0191] Here, the fourth value is configured by the network device. For example, the network device may configure the fourth value through Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling.

[0192] Plan 2-2

[0193] Scheme 2-2 can be described in two ways:

[0194] Description 1: The RSs that the terminal is configured to measure include the aforementioned N RSs and the aforementioned M RSs. The N RSs and the M RSs are not identical. The M RSs are the RSs with the largest measured values ​​among the RSs that the terminal is configured to report. Here, M is configured by the network device. For example, the network device may configure the value of M through RRC signaling.

[0195] Description 2: The M RSs are the RSs with the largest measured values ​​among the RSs that the terminal is configured to report, and the N RSs are the RSs remaining after excluding the M RSs from the RSs that the terminal is configured to measure. Here, M is configured by the network device. For example, the network device can configure the value of M through RRC signaling.

[0196] It should be noted that when the terminal reports the first information to the network device, the above-mentioned solution 1-1, solution 1-2, solution 1-3, or solution 1-4 may be adopted for implementation. When the terminal reports the first information and the second information to the network device, the above-mentioned <Solution 1-1 + Solution 2-1>, <Solution 1-2 + Solution 2-1>, <Solution 1-3 + Solution 2-1>, <Solution 1-4 + Solution 2-1>, <Solution 1-1 + Solution 2-2>, <Solution 1-2 + Solution 2-2>, <Solution 1-3 + Solution 2-2>, or <Solution 1-4 + Solution 2-2> may be adopted for implementation.

[0197] The above solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated below with reference to a specific application example. In the following application example, the RS is a CLI-RS, and the measurement value of the RS is RSRP.

[0198] Application Example 1

[0199] This application example is implemented using the above <Solution 1-2 + Solution 2-1>.

[0200] The first information reported by the terminal includes a second bitmap, which includes N bits, where N is the number of CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure; if the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a first value (such as 1), it indicates that the measured value (such as RSRP) of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth configured CLI-RS) is less than or equal to or less than the second threshold; and / or, if the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a second value (such as 0), it indicates that the measured value of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth configured CLI-RS) is greater than or greater than or equal to the second threshold.

[0201] FIG10 shows an example (corresponding to the scenario of FIG6 ). As shown in FIG10 , the content reported by the terminal includes two parts.

[0202] The first part is a second bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measured values ​​of 8 (i.e., N=8) CLI-RSs and the second threshold. The bits corresponding to CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are set to 1, indicating that the measured values ​​of CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are less than, or equal to, or less than the second threshold, and the inter-terminal CLI interference corresponding to CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 is negligible. The bits corresponding to other CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measured values ​​of other CLI-RSs are greater than, or greater than, the second threshold.

[0203] The second part is used to report the indexes and RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs (i.e., M=4) with the largest measured values ​​among the eight CLI-RSs. The indexes of the four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS index#1, CLI-RS index#2, CLI-RS index#3, and CLI-RS index#4. The RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs are reported differentially, including RSRP#1, differential RSRP#2, differential RSRP#3, and differential RSRP#4. RSRP#1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value among the four CLI-RSs), differential RSRP#2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#2 and RSRP#1, differential RSRP#3 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#3 and RSRP#1, and differential RSRP#4 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#4 and RSRP#1.

[0204] It should be noted that this disclosure does not impose any constraints on the relative order or positional relationship between the first and second parts. For example, the second bitmap shown in the first part may follow the second part, or may even be "embedded" in the second part (e.g., inserting the first part between the CLI-RS index part and the RSRP value part); in addition, other fields may be inserted between the first and second parts.

[0205] The solution in Application Example 1 above addresses the need for terminals to report negligible inter-terminal CLI interference (corresponding to Case B in Figure 6). For negligible inter-terminal CLI interference, the terminal only needs to report the corresponding CLI-RS resource index, without having to report the corresponding RSRP value, thereby reducing reporting resource overhead. Furthermore, for CLI-RS resource index reporting, uplink resource overhead can be further reduced by using a second bitmap reporting method. The size of the second bitmap is fixed (pre-configured), which enhances the determinism and robustness of UCI encoding and facilitates base station decoding.

[0206] The solution of the above application example 1 cannot solve the problem in Example 2 in Figure 6 that the base station cannot identify and confirm whether some of the M unreported CLI-RS resources still belong to the interval where the CLI interference between terminals is extremely strong (i.e., corresponding to the above situation A).

[0207] Application Example 2

[0208] This application example is implemented using the above <Solution 1-3 + Solution 2-1>.

[0209] The first information reported by the terminal includes a first bitmap and a second bitmap, the first bitmap includes N bits, the second bitmap includes N bits, and N is the number of CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure.

[0210] If the kth bit in the first bitmap takes a first value (e.g., 0), it indicates that the measured value (e.g., RSRP) of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth configured CLI-RS) is less than or equal to, or less than, the first threshold; and / or, if the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a second value (e.g., 1), it indicates that the measured value of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth configured CLI-RS) is greater than or greater than or equal to the first threshold.

[0211] If the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a first value (e.g., 1), it indicates that the measured value (e.g., RSRP) of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth configured CLI-RS) is less than or equal to or less than the second threshold; and / or, if the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a second value (e.g., 0), it indicates that the measured value of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth configured CLI-RS) is greater than or greater than or equal to the second threshold.

[0212] Figure 11-1 shows an example (corresponding to the scenario of Example 1 in Figure 6). As shown in Figure 11-1 , the content reported by the terminal includes three parts.

[0213] The first part is a second bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of 8 (i.e., N=8) CLI-RSs and the second threshold. The bits corresponding to CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are set to 1, indicating that the measurement values ​​of CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are less than, equal to, or less than the second threshold, while the bits corresponding to other CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measurement values ​​of other CLI-RSs are greater than, or greater than, the second threshold.

[0214] The third part is the first bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of 8 (i.e., N=8) CLI-RSs and the first threshold; the bits corresponding to CLI-RS#1 and CLI-RS#2 are set to 1, indicating that the measurement values ​​of CLI-RS#1 and CLI-RS#2 are greater than or equal to, or greater than, the first threshold, and the bits corresponding to other CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measurement values ​​of other CLI-RSs are less than or less than or equal to the first threshold.

[0215] The second part is used to report the indexes and RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs (i.e., M=4) with the largest measured values ​​among the eight CLI-RSs. The indexes of the four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS index#1, CLI-RS index#2, CLI-RS index#3, and CLI-RS index#4. The RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs are reported differentially, including RSRP#1, differential RSRP#2, differential RSRP#3, and differential RSRP#4. RSRP#1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value among the four CLI-RSs), differential RSRP#2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#2 and RSRP#1, differential RSRP#3 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#3 and RSRP#1, and differential RSRP#4 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#4 and RSRP#1.

[0216] Figure 11-2 shows an example (corresponding to the scenario of Example 2 in Figure 6). As shown in Figure 11-2, the content reported by the terminal includes three parts.

[0217] The first part is a second bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of 8 (i.e., N=8) CLI-RSs and the second threshold. The bits corresponding to CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are set to 1, indicating that the measurement values ​​of CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are less than, equal to, or less than the second threshold, while the bits corresponding to other CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measurement values ​​of other CLI-RSs are greater than, or greater than, the second threshold.

[0218] The third part is the first bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of 8 (i.e., N=8) CLI-RSs and the first threshold; the bits corresponding to CLI-RS#1, CLI-RS#2, CLI-RS#3, CLI-RS#4, and CLI-RS#5 are set to 1, indicating that the measurement values ​​of CLI-RS#1, CLI-RS#2, CLI-RS#3, CLI-RS#4, and CLI-RS#5 are greater than or equal to, or greater than, the first threshold, while the bits corresponding to other CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measurement values ​​of other CLI-RSs are less than or less than or equal to, the first threshold.

[0219] The second part is used to report the indexes and RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs (i.e., M=4) with the largest measured values ​​among the eight CLI-RSs. The indexes of the four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS index#1, CLI-RS index#2, CLI-RS index#3, and CLI-RS index#4. The RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs are reported differentially, including RSRP#1, differential RSRP#2, differential RSRP#3, and differential RSRP#4. RSRP#1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value among the four CLI-RSs), differential RSRP#2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#2 and RSRP#1, differential RSRP#3 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#3 and RSRP#1, and differential RSRP#4 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#4 and RSRP#1.

[0220] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not impose any constraints on the relative order or relative position relationship of the first part, the second part and the third part.

[0221] The solution of Application Example 2, as shown in Figures 11-1 and 11-2, addresses the need for the terminal to report negligible inter-terminal CLI interference (corresponding to Case B in Figure 6). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 11-2, it also addresses the issue in Example 2 in Figure 6 where the base station is unable to identify and confirm whether some of the M unreported CLI-RS resources still fall within the interval with extremely strong inter-terminal CLI interference (corresponding to Case A). The sizes of the first and second bitmaps are fixed (pre-configured), enhancing the determinism and robustness of UCI encoding and facilitating base station decoding.

[0222] Application Example 3

[0223] This application example is implemented using the above <Solution 1-4 + Solution 2-1>.

[0224] Application Example 3 can be understood as jointly encoding the first bitmap and the second bitmap based on Application Example 2 to reduce reporting overhead. It should be noted that for Application Example 2, the first bitmap and the second bitmap each occupy N bits, and 2N bits are required to indicate the relationship between the measured values ​​of N CLI-RSs and the first threshold and the second threshold.

[0225] Assume that the terminal is configured to measure N CLI-RSs. Based on the definition of the first threshold and the second threshold, the measurement value of each of the N CLI-RSs is only within one of the following three ranges:

[0226] Interval 1: The measured value is equal to or greater than the first threshold;

[0227] Interval 2: The measured value is less than or equal to or less than the second threshold;

[0228] Interval 3: The measured value is between the first threshold and the second threshold, for example, the measured value is less than or equal to the first threshold and greater than or equal to the second threshold, or the measured value is less than or equal to the first threshold and greater than the second threshold, or the measured value is less than or equal to the first threshold and greater than the second threshold, or the measured value is less than the first threshold and greater than or equal to the second threshold.

[0229] If the CLI-RS measurement value is in interval 1, the CLI interference between terminals is very strong (i.e., case A); if the CLI-RS measurement value is in interval 2, the CLI interference between terminals is negligible (i.e., case B); if the CLI-RS measurement value is in interval 3, the CLI interference between terminals is moderate (i.e., case C).

[0230] Corresponding to the above three intervals, the measurement value of each CLI-RS can be indicated by one of the following three states:

[0231] State 1: The measurement value of CLI-RS is in interval 1;

[0232] State 2: The measurement value of CLI-RS is in interval 2;

[0233] State 3: The measured value of CLI-RS is in interval 3.

[0234] Table 7-1 below shows the meanings of Status 1, Status 2, and Status 3.

[0235] Table 7-1

[0236] Table 7-2 below provides a possible implementation of states 1, 2, and 3.

[0237] Table 7-2

[0238] The measurement values ​​of N CLI-RS need to be indicated by one of 3^N combined states. If the 3^N combined states are indicated, at least bits to indicate, where the operator Indicates rounding up.

[0239] For example, Table 8 below compares the bit overhead required for Application Example 2 and Application Example 3 to indicate the same content (i.e., the relationship between the measured values ​​of N CLI-RSs and the first and second thresholds) as N increases (from 1 to 32). Clearly, compared to Application Example 2, when N ≥ 3, Application Example 3 can reduce bit overhead; and the bit overhead savings achieved in Application Example 3 are even more significant as N increases.

[0240] Table 8

[0241] The first information reported by the terminal includes first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate a value range of the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs, or to indicate a relationship between the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs and a first threshold and a second threshold. The first indication information is a first index, where the first index corresponds to at least one combination or reserved value, where each combination indicates a value range of the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs, or indicates a relationship between the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs and the first threshold and the second threshold.

[0242] The first indication information includes L bits, where L is less than or equal to N is the number of CLI-RS that the terminal is configured to measure. Typically, the first indication information includes bits.

[0243] Here, the L-bit binary value corresponds to an index, which corresponds to a reserved value or is related to at least one combination. Each combination represents a value range of the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs or represents a relationship between the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs and the first threshold and the second threshold.

[0244] For example, when N=3, the number of CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure is 3, the measurement value of CLI-RS#1 has 3 states (state 1, state 2, state 3), the measurement value of CLI-RS#2 has 3 states (state 1, state 2, state 3), and the measurement value of CLI-RS#3 has 3 states (state 1, state 2, state 3). The measurement values ​​of the three CLI-RSs have a total of 3^3=27 combined states. The number of bits included in the first indication information is (See Table 8 above).

[0245] Exemplarily, taking N=3 as an example, the number of bits included in the first indication information is 5. As shown in the following Table 9-1, the correspondence between the value, index, and combined state of the CLI-RS measurement value of the first indication information (which may be referred to as the CLI-RS state) can be specified. This correspondence can be regarded as a lookup table, through which the combined state of the measurement value of a specific CLI-RS corresponding to the value of the specific first indication information can be found. Of course, the correspondence between the value of the first indication information and the CLI-RS state is not limited to the following Table 9-1, and can also be other correspondences. In addition, the index number can start from 0, but is not limited to this, and can also start from other values ​​such as 1.

[0246] Table 9-1

[0247] The above Table 9-1 can also be presented in other ways (or variations), see the following Table 9-2 and Table 9-3.

[0248] Table 9-2

[0249] Table 9-3

[0250] Exemplarily, taking N=3 as an example, the number of bits included in the first indication information is 4 (less than 5). As shown in the following Table 9-4, the correspondence between the value, index, and combined state of the CLI-RS measurement value of the first indication information (which can be simply referred to as the CLI-RS state) can be specified. In this correspondence, the value of a specific first indication information corresponds to the combined state of the measurement values ​​of one or more specific CLI-RSs.

[0251] Table 9-4

[0252] FIG12 shows an example (corresponding to the scenario of Example 2 in FIG6 ). As shown in FIG12 , the content reported by the terminal includes two parts.

[0253] The fourth part is the first indication information, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of 8 (i.e., N=8) CLI-RSs and the first threshold and the second threshold. The first indication information includes L bits, where L is less than or equal to 13 (see Table 8). Taking L=5 as an example, the value of the first indication information is 01010. Through the correspondence between the value of the first indication information and the CLI-RS state, it can be clearly seen that the CLI-RS states corresponding to 01010 are: CLI-RS#1 (state 1), CLI-RS#2 (state 1), CLI-RS#3 (state 1), CLI-RS#4 (state 1), CLI-RS#5 (state 1), CLI-RS#6 (state 3), CLI-RS#7 (state 2), and CLI-RS#8 (state 2). The meanings of state 1, state 2, and state 3 here can be referred to in the aforementioned Table 7-2.

[0254] The second part is used to report the indexes and RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs (i.e., M=4) with the largest measured values ​​among the eight CLI-RSs. The indexes of the four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS index#1, CLI-RS index#2, CLI-RS index#3, and CLI-RS index#4. The RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs are reported differentially, including RSRP#1, differential RSRP#2, differential RSRP#3, and differential RSRP#4. RSRP#1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value among the four CLI-RSs), differential RSRP#2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#2 and RSRP#1, differential RSRP#3 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#3 and RSRP#1, and differential RSRP#4 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#4 and RSRP#1.

[0255] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not impose any constraints on the relative order or relative position relationship between the fourth part and the second part.

[0256] The solution of the above-mentioned application example three solves the need for the terminal to report negligible inter-terminal CLI interference (i.e., corresponding to case B in Figure 6); in addition, it can also solve the problem in Example 2 in Figure 6 that the base station cannot identify and confirm whether some of the M unreported CLI-RS resources still belong to the interval with strong inter-terminal CLI interference (i.e., corresponding to the above-mentioned case A). The size of the first indication information is fixed (pre-configured), which enhances the determinism and robustness of UCI encoding and facilitates base station decoding. Compared with the solution of the above-mentioned application example two, the number of bits of the first indication information is less than the sum of the number of bits of the first bitmap and the second bitmap, which can save reporting overhead.

[0257] Application Example 4

[0258] This application example enhances the above application example 2 or application example 3. The second information reported by the terminal includes the indexes and measurement values ​​(such as RSRP) of the M CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values ​​among the N CLI-RSs measured by the terminal, where M is related to the number X of CLI-RSs whose measurement values ​​are greater than, equal to, or greater than the first threshold.

[0259] As one implementation, M = X. As another implementation, M = min{M', X}, where M' is configured by the network device and represents the maximum number of CLI-RS measurement values ​​reported by the terminal. M' can be configured by the network device through RRC signaling.

[0260] Figure 13 provides an example (corresponding to the scenario of Example 1 in Figure 6). As shown in Figure 13, X = 2 (measurement result), M = X = 2; or, X = 2 (measurement result), M' = 4 (network configuration parameter), M = min{M', X} = 2, i.e., the terminal reports the indexes of the two CLI-RSs with the largest measured values ​​and their measured values ​​(such as RSRP). The content reported by the terminal (i.e., the second information) is shown in Table 10-1 below. Among them, CLI-RS index #1 is the index of CLI-RS #1, RSRP #1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index #1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value); CLI-RS index #2 is the index of CLI-RS #2, and differential RSRP #2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index #2 and RSRP #1.

[0261] Table 10-1

[0262] For example, in the scenario of Example 2 in Figure 6, X = 5. M = X = 5, that is, the terminal reports the indexes of the five CLI-RSs with the largest measured values ​​and their measured values ​​(such as RSRP). The content reported by the terminal (i.e., the second information) is shown in Table 10-2 below. Alternatively, if X = 5, M' = 4, and M = min{M', X} = 4, that is, the terminal reports the indexes of the four CLI-RSs with the largest measured values ​​and their measured values ​​(such as RSRP). The content reported by the terminal (i.e., the second information) is shown in Table 10-3 below.

[0263] Table 10-2

[0264] Table 10-3

[0265] Note that in the table above, the header is the CSI report number and CSI fields. In some embodiments, the header may be written as: CLI report number and CLI fields. This case does not specify the specific description of the header.

[0266] It should be noted that the base station can determine the number X of CLI-RSs that are greater than or equal to the first threshold through the first bit map in the aforementioned scheme, or the first indication information, and thus can determine the number M of CLI-RSs with the largest measurement value reported by the terminal. Therefore, the base station and the terminal can obtain a consistent understanding of the value of M.

[0267] The above application example 4 has the following advantages based on application example 2 or application example 3: the number of CLI-RS with the maximum reported measurement value can be determined on demand according to the actual measurement value, thereby further saving reporting overhead in some cases.

[0268] It should be noted that in the solution of the above-mentioned application example four, the number of bits of the first bitmap and the second bitmap reported by the terminal or the number of bits of the first indication information reported by the terminal is fixed. Since the "number M of CLI-RSs with the largest measured values" reported by the terminal is related to the "number X of CLI-RSs with measured values ​​greater than or equal to or greater than the first threshold", X may have different values ​​in different situations. Therefore, the number of bits of the "index and RSRP of the M CLI-RSs with the largest measured values" reported by the terminal is not fixed, and the total number of bits reported by the terminal is naturally not fixed. Therefore, the way the terminal reports measurement information may be different from application examples one, two, and three. In the related art, the CSI reported by the terminal includes two parts, CSI part 1 is a fixed payload size, and the number of information bits of CSI part 2 is variable. CSI part 1 indicates the number of CSI information bits of Part 2. CSI part 1 must be sent in full, while CSI part 2 can be sent only partially.

[0269] In application examples 1, 2, and 3, the number of bits in the second part is fixed and independent of the current measurement result. Therefore, the second part can be carried in CSI Part 1. In application example 4, the number of bits in the second part is determined based on the current measurement result and is variable. Therefore, the second part cannot be carried in CSI Part 1 and can only be carried in CSI Part 2.

[0270] Application Example 5

[0271] This application example is implemented using the above <Solution 1-3 + Solution 2-2>.

[0272] The first information reported by the terminal includes a first bitmap and a second bitmap, the first bitmap includes N bits, the second bitmap includes N bits, N=N'-M, N' is the number of CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure, and M is the number of CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values ​​that the terminal is configured to report. Each bit in the first bitmap corresponds to each CLI-RS in the N CLI-RSs; each bit in the second bitmap corresponds to each CLI-RS in the N CLI-RSs; there is no identical CLI-RS between the N CLI-RSs and the M CLI-RSs, that is, the N CLI-RSs are the CLI-RSs remaining after excluding the M CLI-RSs from the CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure, and the M CLI-RSs are a set of CLI-RSs consisting of the M CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values.

[0273] If the kth bit in the first bitmap takes a first value (e.g., 0), it indicates that the measured value (e.g., RSRP) of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth CLI-RS in the CLI-RS set consisting of the N CLI-RSs) is less than or equal to, or less than, the first threshold; and / or, if the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a second value (e.g., 1), it indicates that the measured value of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth CLI-RS in the CLI-RS set consisting of the N CLI-RSs) is greater than or greater than or equal to the first threshold.

[0274] If the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a first value (e.g., 1), it indicates that the measured value (e.g., RSRP) of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth CLI-RS in the CLI-RS set consisting of the N CLI-RSs) is less than or equal to, or less than, the second threshold; and / or, if the kth bit in the second bitmap takes a second value (e.g., 0), it indicates that the measured value of the CLI-RS corresponding to the kth bit (which can also be understood as the kth CLI-RS in the CLI-RS set consisting of the N CLI-RSs) is greater than or greater than or equal to the second threshold.

[0275] FIG14 shows an example (corresponding to the scenario of Example 1 in FIG6 ). As shown in FIG14 , the content reported by the terminal includes three parts.

[0276] The second part is used to report the indexes and RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs (i.e., M=4) with the largest measured values ​​among the eight CLI-RSs. The indexes of the four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS index#1, CLI-RS index#2, CLI-RS index#3, and CLI-RS index#4. The RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs are reported differentially, including RSRP#1, differential RSRP#2, differential RSRP#3, and differential RSRP#4. RSRP#1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value among the four CLI-RSs), differential RSRP#2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#2 and RSRP#1, differential RSRP#3 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#3 and RSRP#1, and differential RSRP#4 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#4 and RSRP#1.

[0277] After excluding the M CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values ​​included in the second part (M=4) from the CLI-RSs (N'=8) that the terminal is configured to measure, the remaining CLI-RSs constitute a first set, where the first set includes N=N'-M=8-4=4 CLI-RSs.

[0278] The first part is a second bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of the four (i.e., N=4) CLI-RSs in the first set and the second threshold. The four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS#5, CLI-RS#6, CLI-RS#7, and CLI-RS#8, respectively. The bits corresponding to CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are set to 1, indicating that the measurement values ​​of CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8 are less than or equal to or less than the second threshold, and the bits corresponding to other CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measurement values ​​of other CLI-RSs are greater than or greater than or equal to the second threshold.

[0279] The third part is a first bitmap, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measured values ​​of the four (i.e., N=4) CLI-RSs in the first set and the first threshold. The four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS#5, CLI-RS#6, CLI-RS#7, and CLI-RS#8. The bits corresponding to all CLI-RSs are set to 0, indicating that the measured values ​​of all CLI-RSs are less than or equal to the first threshold. It should be noted that the four CLI-RSs reported through the first or third part correspond to the first set, while the four CLI-RSs reported through the second part correspond to the reporting resource set. The reporting resource set includes CLI-RS#1, CLI-RS#2, CLI-RS#3, and CLI-RS#4, and the first set includes CLI-RS#5, CLI-RS#6, CLI-RS#7, and CLI-RS#8. It can be seen that the reporting resource set and the first set constitute the entire measurement resource set. It can be understood that the measurement resource set is the union of the reporting resource set and the first set, and the first set is the difference between the measurement resource set and the reporting resource set.

[0280] It should be noted that the terminal and the base station need to first determine (ie, encode or decode) the information of the second part, and then determine (ie, encode or decode) the information of the first part and / or the third part.

[0281] Application Example 6

[0282] This application example is implemented using the above <Solution 1-4 + Solution 2-2>.

[0283] The terminal reports first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate a value range of the measurement values ​​of the N CLI-RSs, or to indicate a relationship between the measurement values ​​of the N CLI-RSs and the first threshold and the second threshold.

[0284] The first indication information includes L bits, where L is less than or equal to N = N'-M, N' is the number of CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure, and M is the number of CLI-RSs with the largest measurement value that the terminal is configured to report. Typically, the first indication information includes There is no identical CLI-RS between the N CLI-RSs and the M CLI-RSs, that is, the N CLI-RSs are the CLI-RSs remaining after excluding the M CLI-RSs from the CLI-RSs configured to be measured by the terminal, wherein the M CLI-RSs are a CLI-RS set consisting of the M CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values.

[0285] Here, the L-bit binary value corresponds to an index, which corresponds to a reserved value or is related to at least one combination. Each combination represents a value range of the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs or represents a relationship between the measured values ​​of the N CLI-RSs and the first threshold and the second threshold.

[0286] The difference between Application Example 6 and Application Example 3 is that the N CLI-RSs indicated by the first indication information in Application Example 3 are the CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure, while the N CLI-RSs indicated by the first indication information in Application Example 6 are the CLI-RSs remaining after excluding M CLI-RSs from the CLI-RSs that the terminal is configured to measure, where the M CLI-RSs are a CLI-RS set consisting of the M CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values.

[0287] FIG15 shows an example (corresponding to the scenario of Example 2 in FIG6 ). As shown in FIG15 , the content reported by the terminal includes two parts.

[0288] The second part is used to report the indexes and RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs (i.e., M=4) with the largest measured values ​​among the eight CLI-RSs. The indexes of the four CLI-RSs are CLI-RS index#1, CLI-RS index#2, CLI-RS index#3, and CLI-RS index#4. The RSRPs of the four CLI-RSs are reported differentially, including RSRP#1, differential RSRP#2, differential RSRP#3, and differential RSRP#4. RSRP#1 is the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#1 (the RSRP with the largest measured value among the four CLI-RSs), differential RSRP#2 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#2 and RSRP#1, differential RSRP#3 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#3 and RSRP#1, and differential RSRP#4 is the difference between the RSRP corresponding to CLI-RS index#4 and RSRP#1.

[0289] After excluding the M CLI-RSs with the largest measurement values ​​included in the second part (M=4) from the CLI-RSs (N'=8) that the terminal is configured to measure, the remaining CLI-RSs constitute a first set, where the first set includes N=N'-M=8-4=4 CLI-RSs.

[0290] The fourth part is the first indication information, which is used to indicate the relationship between the measurement values ​​of the 4 (i.e., N=4) CLI-RSs in the first set and the first threshold and the second threshold. The first indication information includes L bits, where L is less than or equal to 7 (see Table 8). Taking L=4 as an example, the value of the first indication information is 0101. Through the correspondence between the value of the first indication information and the CLI-RS state, it can be clearly seen that the CLI-RS states corresponding to 0101 are: CLI-RS#5 (state 1), CLI-RS#6 (state 3), CLI-RS#7 (state 2), and CLI-RS#8 (state 2). The meanings of state 1, state 2, and state 3 here can be referred to the aforementioned Table 7-2. It should be noted that the 4 CLI-RS reported through the fourth part correspond to the first set, and the 4 CLI-RS reported through the second part correspond to the reporting resource set. The reporting resource set includes CLI-RS#1, CLI-RS#2, CLI-RS#3 and CLI-RS#4, and the first set includes CLI-RS#5, CLI-RS#6, CLI-RS#7 and CLI-RS#8. It can be seen that the reporting resource set and the first set constitute the entire measurement resource set. It can be understood that the measurement resource set is the union of the reporting resource set and the first set, and the first set is the difference between the measurement resource set and the reporting resource set.

[0291] It should be noted that the terminal and the base station need to first determine (ie, encode or decode) the second part of the information, and then determine (ie, encode or decode) the fourth part of the information.

[0292] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the network device determines the first threshold and / or the second threshold and configures the first threshold and / or the second threshold to the terminal. For example, the network device configures the first threshold and / or the second threshold to the terminal through RRC signaling.

[0293] As an implementation manner, the network device sends configuration information (such as the first configuration information mentioned above) to the terminal, where the configuration information includes the first threshold and / or the second threshold.

[0294] As another implementation, the network device sends configuration information (such as the first configuration information described above) to the terminal. The configuration information includes a threshold and a first offset and / or a second offset. The threshold and the first offset are used to determine the first threshold, and the threshold and the second offset are used to determine the second threshold. For example, the first threshold = threshold + first offset, and the second threshold = threshold + second offset.

[0295] Regarding how the network device determines the first threshold and / or the second threshold, a possible implementation solution is given below.

[0296] The base station determines the first threshold and / or the second threshold according to the change of the terminal-side SINR before and after applying the inter-terminal CLI, as follows.

[0297] The signal strength of the useful downlink signal on the terminal side is denoted as S (linear value). In particular, the terminal can measure it on any symbol and report it as the RSRP measurement value to the base station.

[0298] The downlink SINR measurement value on the terminal side before applying CLI is recorded as SINR no-CLI (linear value), where

[0299] Where S represents the RSRP (linear value) of the downlink useful signal; N represents thermal noise; I no-CLI Indicates the strength (linear value) of other interference signals excluding CLI interference between terminals, such as downlink signal interference from other cells. In particular, the terminal can measure SINR on uplink only (UL only) symbols. no-CLI and reports it to the base station as the SINR measurement value.

[0300] The downlink SINR measurement value on the terminal side after applying CLI is recorded as SINR CLI (linear value), where

[0301] Among them, I CLI Indicates the strength of the CLI interference signal between terminals (linear value).

[0302] According to the above formula (1) and formula (2), the following formula (3) can be obtained.

[0303] Therefore, the difference in SINR between the terminal side before and after applying CLI is Δ SINR (dB value) is:

[0304] Among them, the base station can calculate the S and SINR reported by the terminal no-CLI , calculate I no-CLI +N.

[0305] Therefore, the base station side can calculate the CLI signal strength I between terminals. CLI , estimate the terminal-side SINR difference Δ before and after applying the inter-terminal CLI SINR It should be noted that the meaning of “estimate” here is: Δ SINR with I CLI The above formula is only a statistical result. When used in practice, the instantaneous value may have a certain error.

[0306] For example, in one embodiment, the base station determines when Δ SINR If the value is greater than or equal to A1 dB, it is considered that the CLI interference between the potential interfering terminal and the potential victim terminal sending the CLI-RS is particularly strong, and the base station must adopt a special scheduling / coordinated scheduling mechanism. The base station determines the first threshold based on A1 dB. In another embodiment, the base station determines that when Δ SINR If the value is less than or equal to A2 dB, the inter-terminal CLI interference between the potential interfering terminal sending the CLI-RS and the potential victim terminal is considered to be extremely weak and almost negligible. The base station determines the second threshold based on A2 dB.

[0307] In particular, for flexible / dynamic TDD scenarios, 10*log 10 (I CLI ) ≈ RSRP (dB value) of the CLI-RS + the first parameter, where the first parameter is a positive, zero, or negative number and is related to the channel power used by the interfering terminal to transmit the CLI-RS and the signal power of the uplink data transmitted by the interfering terminal. Generally, the absolute value of the first parameter is less than 3 dB.

[0308] For SBFD scenarios, 10*log 10 (I CLI) ≈ RSRP of CLI-RS (dB value) + first parameter - second variable (dB value). The first parameter is similar to the flexible / dynamic TDD scenario. The second parameter is related to inter-subband energy leakage. For example: or, ACIR stands for Adjacent Channel Interference Ratio, ACLR stands for Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio, ICS stands for In-Band Emission, and IBE stands for In-Band Emission. ACIR, ACLR, ICS, or IBE are all RF indicators.

[0309] In summary, considering and I CLI Relationship with RSRP of CLI-RS, Δ SINR The threshold A1 and the first threshold of the CLI-RS RSRP threshold, and / or Δ SINR There is no simple linear relationship between the threshold value A2 and the second threshold value of the RSRP of the CLI-RS.
