Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mobile communications, and more particularly to a method, apparatus, and device for measuring wireless resource management information. Background Technology

[0002] The Evolved-Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA) system defines Radio Resource Management (RRM) related information, including Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). RSRP is defined as the linear average of the received power of the corresponding cell-specific reference signals (CRS) on the resource elements (REs) of all CRS ports used for RSRP measurement within the measurement bandwidth. RSRQ is defined as N × RSRP / (E-UTRA carrier RSSI), where N is the number of resource blocks (RBs) in the E-UTRA system used to measure the E-UTRA carrier RSSI, and the E-UTRA carrier RSSI is the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) of the antenna port 0 carrying the CRS measured on N RBs within the specified measurement bandwidth. The RSSI is the linear average of the total received power on multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, including cochannel interference from the serving cell, interference from non-serving cells, adjacent channel interference, and thermal noise, etc. If higher-layer signaling specifies a particular subframe for measuring RSRQ, then RSSI will be measured from all OFDM symbols in the corresponding subframe. In E-UTRA systems, RRM information is generally obtained through measurement. The basic method is to take multiple measurements of RRM information within a certain time range within the measurement bandwidth and then calculate the linear average. For example, for RSRP, the RSRP measurement value can be obtained by linearly averaging five RSRP measurements within 200ms.The RRM measurement is mainly used for user equipment (UE) mobility management, etc. For example, the RSRP measurement represents the average received power of the reference signal from a cell to the UE. When the UE moves away from cell A, the RSRP of cell A measured by the UE and reported back to the base station gradually decreases. When the UE moves closer to cell B, the RSRP of cell B measured by the UE and reported back to the base station gradually increases. In other words, when the UE moves, it continuously measures and reports the RRM measurement to the base station. The base station uses the RRM measurement returned by the UE to determine whether it needs to change the cell that provides service to the UE.

[0003] As explained above, RRM measurements, or the measurement of RRM information, are related to CRS. CRS is transmitted in every subframe, and the density of CRS is high in the time-frequency domain. For example, there is a CRS on every "RB pair" (i.e., a consecutive pair of RBs), where CRS port 0 occupies 8 REs on an RB pair. Here, an RB pair is a unit of radio resources, and an RB pair represents the radio resources corresponding to several consecutive subcarriers in a subframe. In the E-UTRA system, CRS is generated based on the cell ID, and CRS-related parameters include the number of CRS ports, the CRS frequency offset, and the subframe type. The UE measures RRM information by detecting the CRS of surrounding cells.

[0004] It should be noted that although RRM measurements are related to CRS, this does not mean that all cells must transmit CRS. For example, in New Carrier Type (NCT) cells, CRS may not be transmitted at all because it may be replaced by Reduced Cell-Specific Reference Signals (RCRS). Compared to CRS, RCRS has a lower density in the time and / or frequency domains, and therefore may not guarantee the accuracy of RRM information measurements such as RSRP. In NCT cells, in addition to transmitting RCRS, other signals may also be transmitted, including Primary Synchronization Signal / Secondary Synchronization Signal (PSS / SSS), Discovery Reference Signal (DRS), and Broadcasting Channel (BCH).

[0005] For NCT cells, one existing method for measuring RRM information is for the UE to measure RRM information based on DRS. Since various parameters of the DRS are related to the cell ID, the existing method involves the UE blindly detecting surrounding DRSs. When a DRS matches a DRS associated with a specific cell ID, it is considered a DRS has been found, and then the RRM information is measured based on that DRS.

[0006] Since the cells surrounding the UE may have different configurations, such as transmitting different signals or transmitting signals with different configurations, the method for measuring RRM information provided by the prior art only performs RRM measurement based on DRS (or CRS), and cannot guarantee the accuracy of RRM measurement for all cells surrounding the UE.

[0007] Furthermore, when the UE performs RRM measurement, it only performs one RRM statistical measurement based on the system bandwidth. However, the transmit power of each cell may be different at different locations in the system bandwidth. Therefore, performing only one RRM statistical measurement for a cell cannot accurately reflect the changes in the large-scale channel characteristics from the cell to the UE in different frequency bands.

[0049] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0050] Please see the appendix Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart of a wireless resource management measurement method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and the executing entity can be a base station. Figure 1 The example method mainly includes steps S101 and S102, which are described in detail below:

[0051] S101, determine at least one configuration information for the user equipment to perform radio resource management (RRM) measurements, the configuration information including at least one of RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement.

[0052] In this embodiment of the invention, RRM measurement can be at least one of Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurement, Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measurement, and Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) measurement. Configuration information is a general term for RRM measurement type information, signal type information used for RRM measurement, and signal combination information used for RRM measurement, but is not limited to these configuration information. Furthermore, the aforementioned configuration information for RRM measurement is used for RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements, and can be configured independently; that is, for different RRM measurements, the base station configures the corresponding configuration information independently. For example, when measuring five different RRMs, the RRM measurement type information can be different for each RRM measurement; or, when configuring signal type information for each RRM measurement, the signal type information can be different for each RRM measurement; or, when configuring signal combination information for each RRM measurement, the signal combination information can be different for each RRM measurement. For example, as an embodiment of independently configuring configuration information for RRM measurements, it is also possible to configure the corresponding signal used for each measurement item separately. For instance, if the signals used to measure RSRP and RSSI of the same New Carrier Type (NCT) cell are different, then the signals used are configured separately. For example, RCRS is used to measure RSRP, while IMR or CSI-RS is used to measure RSSI. Furthermore, multiple cells or nodes around the UE may have different configurations, such as different carrier types or different transmitted signals or signal combinations. For example, not all cells or nodes transmit the same signal or signal combination that can be used for RRM measurements. In this case, independently configuring at least one configuration information for the relevant RRM measurements of each cell or node can be performed separately, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the UE's RRM measurements for each cell or node.

[0053] It should be noted that when configuring this configuration information, the base station may include only one or two of the following: RRM measurement type information, signal type information used for RRM measurement, and signal combination information used for RRM measurement. When the user equipment receives one or two of these configuration information, it can determine the remaining two or one configuration information based on predefined associations. For example, if the configuration information only includes RRM measurement type information, then when the user equipment receives the RRM measurement type information, it can determine the signal type information and signal combination information used for RRM measurement based on predefined associations. In one embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type information, signal type information, signal combination information, and measurement item information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements. In another embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type, signal combination information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements; or it includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type, signal type information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements. In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the signal type in the signal type information includes Cell-specific Reference Signals (CRS), Reduced Cell-specific Reference Signals (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signals (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signals (SSS), and Discovery Reference Signals. The signal combination information includes one of the following: DRS, BroadcastCHannel (BCH) signal, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR), and Channel State Information-Reference Signals (CSI-RS). The signal combination in the signal combination information includes any combination of Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (CRS), Simplified Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), Exploration Reference Signal (DRS), BroadcastCH signal, IMR, and CSI-RS.In the above embodiments, signal type information is used to indicate the type of signal or the signal type and configuration information of the signal required by the user equipment when performing RRM measurement. Signal combination information is used to indicate the type of a set of signals and the configuration information of the signal required by the user equipment when performing RRM measurement. Carrier type information can be Normal Carrier Type (NCT), Legacy Carrier Type (LCT), New Carrier Type 1 (NCT1), or New Carrier Type 2 (NCT2), etc. Optionally, carrier type information can correspond to a predefined or default RRM measurement method under that carrier type information. For example, when the carrier type information is LCT, RRM measurement is performed based on CRS; when the carrier type information is NCT1, RRM measurement is performed based on RCRS; and when the carrier type information is NCT2, RRM measurement is performed based on cell-specific CSI-RS. The measurement information can specifically specify what type of RRM measurement is being performed, including one or more of RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI measurements. For example, measuring only RSRP, only RSRP and RSSI, or all of RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI. Alternatively, the measurement information can specify on which signal the RRM measurement is being performed. For example, measuring the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) on the CRS and the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) on the CSI-RS. Or, measuring the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) on the signal transmitted by the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement and measuring the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) on the signal of another cell synchronized with the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement. For example, performing an RRM measurement for an NCT cell, measuring the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) on the CRS transmitted by the NCT cell, measuring the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) on the CRS transmitted by an LCT cell synchronized with the NCT cell, and then using the measured RSSI and RSRP to calculate the RSRQ.

[0054] As one embodiment of the present invention, when configuring RRM measurement type information, the base station may include only one or more of the aforementioned information. When the user equipment receives one or more of the aforementioned configuration information, it can learn or determine the remaining configuration information based on predefined associations. For example, if the RRM measurement type information only includes carrier type information, then when the user equipment receives the RRM measurement type information, it can learn or determine any one or any combination of signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time domain parameter information, frequency domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information used for RRM measurement based on predefined associations. As another embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be configured by the UE's serving cell.

[0055] As one embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be communicated via broadcast signaling or dedicated signaling. For example, it may be communicated to multiple UEs via broadcast RRC signaling, or to a single UE via dedicated RRC signaling.

[0056] As mentioned above, signal type information can be the type of signal and configuration information of the signal required for the user equipment to perform RRM measurement. Signal combination information is the type of a set of signals and configuration information required for the user equipment to perform RRM measurement. Specifically, for RCRS, its configuration information includes at least one of RCRS shift and shift parameters, and RCRS time-domain location information. For CSI-RS, its configuration information includes at least one of CSI-RS pattern information, time-domain location information, and scrambling code ID. For PSS or SSS, its configuration information includes at least one of PSS or SSS presence, frequency-domain location information, and time-domain location information. For DRS, its configuration information includes at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, or at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, and corresponding sequence initialization ID information. For common control channels (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), its configuration information includes the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel, or may also include at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information.For example, when a base station notifies a user equipment (UE) to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH) or for a single RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), ... The user equipment (UE) is notified of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using PSS / SSS and CRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the scrambling code ID information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), it simultaneously notifies the UE of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to use IMR or ZP... When CSI-RS performs RRM measurement for a cell or for an RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the user equipment of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the IMR or ZP CSI-RS.

[0057] S102, the configuration information is sent to the user equipment so that the user equipment performs the RRM measurement according to the configuration information.

[0058] For the above-mentioned configuration information including signal type information for RRM measurement, the base station can configure the user equipment to use different types of signals for different RRM measurements, or configure the user equipment to use one signal for some RRM measurements and a combination of signals for other RRM measurements for multiple RRM measurements. The signals or signal combinations corresponding to the multiple RRM measurements can be different.

[0059] Specifically, when the base station notifies the configuration information, it can notify a list of cells or a list of RRM measurements to be performed based on the configuration information for each type of RRM measurement. Alternatively, the base station can notify the UE of the corresponding RRM measurement configuration information for each RRM measurement or each cell's RRM measurement separately. After the user equipment performs the RRM measurement based on the configuration information sent by the base station, it feeds back the measurement results to the base station that sent the configuration information.

[0060] As can be seen from the wireless resource management measurement method provided in the above embodiments of the present invention, since the base station determines at least one of the following for wireless resource management RRM measurement: RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement, compared with the prior art which only blindly detects DRS, the method provided in the embodiments of the present invention enables the user equipment to directly perform multiple RRM measurements and process multiple RRM measurement results according to the configuration information, without blindly detecting the relevant configuration of each surrounding cell. This reduces the complexity of the user equipment, improves the accuracy of RRM measurement and processing, and the base station can send different configuration information to the UE for different RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements. This ensures that the UE performs RRM measurements based on the characteristics of the signals sent by the corresponding cell or transmission point, rather than performing all RRM measurements based on only one signal, thereby improving the accuracy of wireless resource management RRM measurement and processing.

[0061] In one embodiment where the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type, signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time domain parameter information, frequency domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for RRM measurement by the user equipment. In another embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals when instructing the user equipment to measure the same measurement item using at least two signals from the signal combination information. This weighting is used by the user equipment to statistically average the measurement values ​​of the measurement item based on the weighting to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, this can be achieved by statistically averaging the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS, with the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS being 30% and the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on PSS / SSS being 70%. The RSRP measurement result is obtained by statistically averaging the weighted values. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment uses at least two signals in the signal combination type to measure the same measurement item, and a first adjustment value of the measurement values ​​obtained from the at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment uses at least two signals in the signal combination type to measure the same measurement item. The weighted average and the first adjustment value are used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the first adjustment value and then to perform a statistical average of the adjusted measurement value according to the weighted average to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS are statistically averaged. The RSRP value measured on RCRS is MdB and the adjustment value is 1dB. The RSRP value measured on PSS / SSS is NdB and the adjustment value is 0dB. After adjustment, the RSRP on RCRS is (M+1)dB and the RSRP on PSS / SSS is (N-0)dB. Then, a statistical average or feedback is performed. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a second adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. The second adjustment value is used to instruct the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the second adjustment value before comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value when comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value.In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a third adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using the at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. The third adjustment value is used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the third adjustment value and then use the adjusted measurement value to calculate another measurement item.

[0062] In this embodiment of the invention, the base station can configure different RRM measurement adjustment parameters according to the RRM measurements performed by the UE for different cells or different RRM measurements as needed. This allows different measurement adjustment parameters to be set for different RRM measurements based on the corresponding signal or signal type and signal parameters, instead of using the same measurement adjustment parameters for all RRM measurements or all RRM measurements. This ensures the accuracy of the UE's adjustment of RRM measurements for a particular cell or node.

[0063] In the above embodiments of the present invention, the information items included in the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information have corresponding index numbers. As an embodiment of sending configuration information to a user equipment so that the user equipment measures RRM according to the configuration information, the index number corresponding to the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information can be sent to the user equipment, so that the user equipment can query a correspondence table according to the index number to obtain the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information corresponding to the index number, and then measure the RRM. In the above embodiments, the correspondence table can be predefined, and it includes the correspondence between the index number and the RRM measurement type information or the correspondence between the index number and the signal combination information. As another embodiment of sending configuration information to a user equipment so that the user equipment measures RRM according to the configuration information, the correspondence table and the index number can be sent to the user equipment, so that the user equipment can query the correspondence table according to the index number to obtain the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information corresponding to the index number, and then measure the RRM. In this embodiment of the invention, instead of directly sending RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information to the user equipment, the corresponding index number is sent, which can save signaling and reduce the complexity of signaling design.

[0064] Corresponding to the appendix Figure 1 The present invention provides a method for measuring radio resource management information, as illustrated in the example method. Please refer to the appendix for further details. Figure 2It mainly includes steps S201 to S203, which are described in detail below:

[0065] S201, the user equipment receives at least one configuration information for Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement sent by the base station, the configuration information including at least one of RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement.

[0066] As mentioned earlier, RRM measurement can be at least one of RSRP measurement, RSSI measurement, and RSRQ measurement. The configuration information, configured by the base station and sent to the user equipment, is a general term encompassing RRM measurement type information, signal type information used for RRM measurement, and signal combination information used for RRM measurement, but is not limited to these configuration information. Furthermore, the aforementioned configuration information for RRM measurement is used for RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements, and can be configured independently; that is, the base station configures the corresponding configuration information independently for different RRM measurements. For example, when measuring five different RRMs, the RRM measurement type information can be different for each RRM measurement; similarly, the signal type information can be different for each RRM measurement; or, the signal combination information can be different for each RRM measurement. For example, as an embodiment of independently configuring configuration information for RRM measurements, it is also possible to configure the corresponding signal used for each measurement item separately. For instance, if the signals used to measure RSRP and RSSI of the same new carrier type NCT cell are different, then the signals used are configured separately. For example, RCRS is used to measure RSRP, while IMR or CSI-RS is used to measure RSSI. Furthermore, multiple cells or nodes around the UE may have different configurations, such as different carrier types or different transmitted signals or signal combinations. For example, not all cells or nodes transmit the same signal or signal combination that can be used for RRM measurements. In this case, independently configuring at least one configuration information for the relevant RRM measurements of each cell or node can be performed separately, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the UE's RRM measurements for each cell or node.

[0067] It should be noted that when configuring this configuration information, the base station may include only one or two of the following: RRM measurement type information, signal type information used for RRM measurement, and signal combination information used for RRM measurement. When the user equipment receives one or two of these configuration information, it can determine the remaining two or one configuration information based on predefined associations. For example, if the configuration information only includes RRM measurement type information, then when the user equipment receives the RRM measurement type information, it can determine the signal type information and signal combination information used for RRM measurement based on predefined associations. In one embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type information, signal type information, signal combination information, and measurement item information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements. In another embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type, signal combination information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements; or it includes any one or a combination of the following: carrier type, signal type information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements. Any combination of several types; in another embodiment of the present invention, the signal type information includes one of the following: Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (CRS), Simplified Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), Exploration Reference Signal (DRS), Broadcast Channel (BCH) signal, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR), and Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS). The signal combination information includes any combination of the following: Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (CRS), Simplified Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), Exploration Reference Signal (DRS), Broadcast Channel (BCH) signal, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR), and Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS). In the above embodiments, signal type information is used to indicate the type of signal or the type of signal and configuration information of the signal required when the user equipment performs RRM measurement. Signal combination information is used to indicate the type of a set of signals and configuration information of the signal required when the user equipment performs RRM measurement. Carrier type information can be Normal Carrier Type (NCT), Legacy Carrier Type (LCT), New Carrier Type 1 (NCT1), or New Carrier Type 2 (NCT2), etc.Optionally, the carrier type information can correspond to a predefined or default RRM measurement method under that carrier type information. For example, when the carrier type information is LCT, RRM measurement is performed based on CRS; when the carrier type information is NCT1, RRM measurement is performed based on RCRS; and when the carrier type information is NCT2, RRM measurement is performed based on cell-specific CSI-RS. The measurement item information package can specifically specify what type of RRM measurement is being performed, including performing one or more of RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI measurements. For example, only RSRP is measured, or only RSRP and RSSI are measured, or RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI are all measured. Alternatively, the measurement information can specifically refer to what kind of RRM measurement is performed on what kind of signal. For example, the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the CRS, and the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the CSI-RS. Or, the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the signal transmitted by the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement, and the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the signal of another cell synchronized with the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement. For example, an RRM measurement is performed on an NCT cell, the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the CRS transmitted by the NCT cell, and the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the CRS transmitted by an LCT cell synchronized with the NCT cell. Then, the measured RSSI and RSRP are used to calculate the RSRQ.

[0068] As one embodiment of the present invention, when configuring RRM measurement type information, the base station may include only one or more of the aforementioned information. When the user equipment receives one or more of the aforementioned configuration information, it can learn or determine the remaining configuration information based on predefined associations. For example, if the RRM measurement type information only includes carrier type information, then when the user equipment receives the RRM measurement type information, it can learn or determine any one or any combination of signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time domain parameter information, frequency domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information used for RRM measurement based on predefined associations. As another embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be configured by the UE's serving cell.

[0069] As one embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be communicated via broadcast signaling or dedicated signaling. For example, it may be communicated to multiple UEs via broadcast RRC signaling, or to a single UE via dedicated RRC signaling.

[0070] As mentioned above, signal type information can be the type of signal and configuration information of the signal required for the user equipment to perform RRM measurement. Signal combination information is the type of a set of signals and configuration information required for the user equipment to perform RRM measurement. Specifically, for RCRS, its configuration information includes at least one of RCRS shift and shift parameters, and RCRS time-domain location information. For CSI-RS, its configuration information includes at least one of CSI-RS pattern information, time-domain location information, and scrambling code ID. For PSS or SSS, its configuration information includes at least one of PSS or SSS presence, frequency-domain location information, and time-domain location information. For DRS, its configuration information includes at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, or at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, and corresponding sequence initialization ID information. For common control channels (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), its configuration information includes the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel, or may also include at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information.For example, when a base station notifies a user equipment (UE) to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH) or for a single RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), ... The user equipment (UE) is notified of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using PSS / SSS and CRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the scrambling code ID information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), it simultaneously notifies the UE of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to use IMR or ZP... When CSI-RS performs RRM measurement for a cell or for an RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the user equipment of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the IMR or ZP CSI-RS.

[0071] Specifically, when the UE receives configuration information from the base station, the configuration information may include one of the following: the configuration information is configuration information for each type of RRM measurement, including a list of cells or a list of RRM measurements based on the configuration information; or, the configuration information is configuration information for each RRM measurement or the RRM measurement corresponding to each cell's RRM measurement.

[0072] As can be seen from the wireless resource management measurement method provided in the above embodiments of the present invention, the user equipment receives at least one configuration information for wireless resource management (RRM) measurement from the base station, which includes at least one of RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement. Therefore, compared with the prior art which only blindly detects DRS, the method provided in the embodiments of the present invention enables the user equipment to directly perform multiple RRM measurements and process multiple RRM measurement results based on the configuration information, without needing to blindly detect the relevant configuration of each surrounding cell. This reduces the complexity of the user equipment and improves the accuracy of RRM measurement and processing. Moreover, the UE receives different configuration information from the base station for RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements, thereby ensuring that the UE performs RRM measurements based on the characteristics of the signals sent by the corresponding cell or transmission point, rather than performing all RRM measurements based on only one signal, thus improving the accuracy of wireless resource management RRM measurement and processing.

[0073] In one embodiment where the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type, signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for RRM measurement by the user equipment. As an embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals in the signal combination information when instructing the user equipment to measure the same measurement item using at least two signals. This weighting is used by the user equipment to statistically average the measurement values ​​of the measurement item based on the weighting to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, by statistically averaging the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS, the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS is 30%, and the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on PSS / SSS is 70%. The user equipment performs a statistical average based on the weighted values ​​to obtain the RSRP measurement result. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment measures the same measurement item using at least two signals in the signal combination type, and a first adjustment value of the measurement values ​​obtained from the at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment measures the same measurement item using at least two signals in the signal combination type. The weighted average and the first adjustment value are used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the first adjustment value, and then to perform a statistical average of the adjusted measurement value according to the weighted average to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, by statistically averaging the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS, if the RSRP value measured on RCRS is MdB and the adjustment value is 1dB, and the RSRP value measured on PSS / SSS is NdB and the adjustment value is 0dB, then the user equipment adjusts the values ​​to obtain an RSRP of (M+1)dB on RCRS and an RSRP of (N-0)dB on PSS / SSS, and then performs a statistical average or feedback. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a second adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. The second adjustment value is used to instruct the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the second adjustment value before comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value when comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value.In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a third adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using the at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. This third adjustment value is used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the third adjustment value before using the adjusted measurement value to calculate another measurement item. In this embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement configuration information sent by the base station received by the UE may include different RRM measurement value adjustment parameters configured for different cells or different RRM measurements. This allows different measurement value adjustment parameters to be set for different RRM measurements based on the corresponding signal or signal type and signal parameters, rather than using the same measurement value adjustment parameters for all cells or all RRM measurements. This ensures the accuracy of the UE's adjustment for the RRM measurement of a particular cell or node.

[0074] In the above embodiments of the present invention, the information items included in the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information have corresponding index numbers. As an embodiment of a user equipment receiving at least one configuration information for Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement from a base station, the user equipment can receive the index number corresponding to the aforementioned RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information sent by the base station. Correspondingly, as an embodiment of the user equipment performing the RRM measurement based on the configuration information, the user equipment can query a correspondence table based on the index number to obtain the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information corresponding to the index number, and then measure the RRM. The correspondence table includes the correspondence between the index number and the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information. In the above embodiments, the correspondence table can be predefined, and it includes the correspondence between the index number and the RRM measurement type information or the correspondence between the index number and the signal combination information. In another embodiment, as a user equipment receiving at least one configuration information from a base station for Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement, the user equipment can receive a correspondence table sent by the base station and an index number corresponding to the aforementioned RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information. Correspondingly, in another embodiment, as a user equipment performing RRM measurement based on the configuration information, the user equipment can query the correspondence table based on the index number to obtain the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information corresponding to the index number, and then measure the RRM. In this embodiment, the user equipment does not directly receive the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information, but only receives the corresponding index number, which saves signaling and reduces the complexity of signaling design.

[0075] S202, the user equipment performs RRM measurement based on the configuration information.

[0076] For embodiments where the configuration information includes signal type information for RRM measurements, the base station can configure the user equipment (UE) to use different types of signals for different RRM measurements, or configure the UE to use one signal for some RRM measurements and a combination of signals for others, where the signals or signal combinations corresponding to the multiple RRM measurements can be different. Specifically, when the base station notifies the configuration information, it can notify a list of cells or a list of RRM measurements based on the configuration information for each type of RRM measurement, or the base station can notify the UE of the corresponding RRM measurement configuration information for each RRM measurement or each cell's RRM measurement separately. The UE performs RRM measurements according to the configuration information issued by the base station.

[0077] S203, the user equipment feeds back the measurement results of the RRM measurement to the base station.

[0078] Please see the appendix Figure 3-a This is a flowchart illustrating a method for measuring wireless resource management information according to another embodiment of the present invention, wherein the executing entity can be a base station. Figure 3-a The example method mainly includes steps S301 and S302, which are described in detail below:

[0079] S301 divides the system bandwidth into several sub-bandwidths.

[0080] System bandwidth includes the maximum available system bandwidth, downlink transmission bandwidth, uplink transmission bandwidth, or maximum available uplink system bandwidth.

[0081] For a single RRM measurement, the RRM of multiple sub-bandwidths is measured across the system bandwidth. For example, if the system bandwidth is 10MHz, the base station can divide it into five sub-bandwidths of 2MHz each, and perform RRM measurements for each sub-bandwidth separately, or perform RRM measurements for the first two sub-bandwidths.

[0082] S302, instructing the user equipment to measure the radio resource management (RRM) information for at least one of the said sub-bandwidths.

[0083] Furthermore, it also includes sending the at least one sub-bandwidth size and / or location information to the user equipment.

[0084] In an embodiment where the user equipment is instructed to measure Radio Resource Management (RRM) information for at least one sub-bandwidth, the user equipment may be instructed to measure at least one of Reference Received Power (RSRP), Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI), or Reference Received Quality (RSRQ) for the sub-bandwidth. Specifically, the user equipment is instructed to calculate at least one RSRQ based on the wideband RSRP and at least one sub-band RSSI, or to calculate at least one RSRQ based on at least one sub-band RSRP and the wideband RSRP, wherein at least one of the RSRP or RSSI is wideband, or both are partial bandwidth. For example, the user equipment may calculate M RSRQs based on the wideband RSRP and M sub-bandwidth RSSIs, or N RSRQs based on the wideband RSSI and N sub-bandwidth RSRPs, or at most M×N RSRQs based on the M sub-bandwidth RSSIs and N sub-bandwidth RSRPs. After the user equipment measures the RRM information for at least one sub-bandwidth according to the base station's instructions, it reports the measurement results to the base station that provided the above instructions. Therefore, the following steps may also be included:

[0085] S303, the base station receives the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement results on the sub-bandwidth measured by the user equipment.

[0086] According to embodiments of the present invention, by measuring the sub-bandwidth RSRP, RSSI, or RSRQ of certain cells or nodes, the signal strength or signal quality of the corresponding cells or nodes in different sub-bandwidths can be obtained. Compared to having only one RSRP, RSRQ, or RSSI in the system bandwidth, even if the transmit power of each cell is different at different positions in the system bandwidth, RRM measurement and reporting can be performed on the corresponding sub-bandwidth according to different sub-bandwidths. This can accurately reflect the changes in the large-scale channel characteristics from the cell to the UE in different frequency bands, and can provide more detailed reference information for network-side equipment (such as base stations) to perform radio resource management.

[0087] Corresponding to the appendix Figure 3-a The present invention provides a method for measuring wireless resource management information, as illustrated in the example method. Please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 3-b It mainly includes steps S'301 to S'302, which are described in detail below:

[0088] S'301, the user equipment receives an instruction to measure the radio resource management (RRM) of at least one sub-bandwidth.

[0089] In this embodiment, the system bandwidth includes the maximum available system bandwidth, downlink transmission bandwidth, or uplink transmission bandwidth. Sub-bandwidths are obtained by dividing the system bandwidth, and the indication is given by the base station to the user equipment. For example, if the system bandwidth is 10MHz, the base station can divide it into five sub-bandwidths of 2MHz each, performing RRM measurements for each sub-bandwidth individually, or performing RRM measurements for the first two sub-bandwidths.

[0090] S'302, the user equipment measures the RRM according to the instruction.

[0091] Furthermore, it also includes: the user equipment receiving at least one sub-bandwidth size and / or location information sent by the base station.

[0092] In an embodiment where a user equipment receives an instruction to measure the Radio Resource Management (RRM) information for at least one sub-bandwidth, the user equipment may receive an instruction to measure at least one of the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI), or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) for the sub-bandwidth. Specifically, the user equipment receives an instruction to calculate at least one RSRQ based on the wideband RSRP and at least one sub-band RSSI, or the user equipment receives an instruction to calculate at least one RSRQ based on at least one sub-band RSRP and the wideband RSRP, wherein at least one of the RSRP or RSSI is wideband, or both are partial bandwidth. For example, the user equipment may calculate M RSRQs based on the wideband RSRP and M sub-bandwidth RSSIs, or calculate N RSRQs based on the wideband RSSI and N sub-bandwidth RSRPs, or calculate at most M×N RSRQs based on the M sub-bandwidth RSSIs and N sub-bandwidth RSRPs. After the user equipment measures the RRM information for at least one sub-bandwidth according to the base station's instruction, it reports the measurement results to the base station providing the above instruction. Therefore, the following steps may also be included:

[0093] S'303, the user equipment reports the measured Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement results on the sub-bandwidth to the base station.

[0094] According to embodiments of the present invention, by measuring the sub-bandwidth RSRP, RSSI, or RSRQ of certain cells or nodes, the signal strength or signal quality of the corresponding cells or nodes in different sub-bandwidths can be obtained. Compared to having only one RSRP, RSRQ, or RSSI in the system bandwidth, even if the transmit power of each cell is different at different positions in the system bandwidth, RRM measurement and reporting can be performed on the corresponding sub-bandwidth according to different sub-bandwidths. This can accurately reflect the changes in the large-scale channel characteristics from the cell to the UE in different frequency bands, and can provide more detailed reference information for network-side equipment (such as base stations) to perform radio resource management.

[0095] Please see the appendix Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the device structure for wireless resource management measurement provided in an embodiment of the present invention. For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiment of the present invention are shown. Figure 4 The example wireless resource management measurement device can be a base station or a functional unit / module therein, which includes a configuration information determination module 401 and a configuration information transmission module 402, wherein:

[0096] The configuration information determination module 401 is used to determine at least one configuration information of the user equipment for radio resource management (RRM) measurement. The configuration information includes at least one of RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement. The RRM measurement includes at least one of reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement, received signal strength indication (RSSI) measurement, and reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurement.

[0097] The configuration information sending module 402 is used to send the configuration information to the user equipment so that the user equipment can perform the RRM measurement according to the configuration information.

[0098] It should be noted that the division of functional modules in the above embodiments of the wireless resource management measurement device is merely illustrative. In practical applications, the functions described above can be assigned to different functional modules based on needs, such as hardware configuration requirements or software implementation convenience. That is, the internal structure of the wireless resource management measurement device can be divided into different functional modules to complete all or part of the functions described above. Furthermore, in practical applications, the corresponding functional modules in this embodiment can be implemented by corresponding hardware or by corresponding hardware executing corresponding software. For example, the aforementioned configuration information determination module can be hardware capable of performing the aforementioned determination of at least one configuration information for user equipment used in wireless resource management (RRM) measurement, such as a configuration information determiner, or it can be a general processor or other hardware device capable of executing a corresponding computer program to complete the aforementioned function. Similarly, the aforementioned configuration information transmission module can be hardware capable of performing the aforementioned function of sending the configuration information to the user equipment, such as a configuration information transmitter, or it can be a general processor or other hardware device capable of executing a corresponding computer program to complete the aforementioned function (the above-described principles can be applied to all embodiments provided in this specification).

[0099] In the appendix Figure 4In the example of the wireless resource management measurement apparatus, the RRM measurement can be at least one of Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurement, Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) measurement, and Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) measurement. The configuration information is a general term for RRM measurement type information, signal type information used for RRM measurement, and signal combination information used for RRM measurement, but is not limited to these configuration information. Furthermore, the aforementioned configuration information for RRM measurement is used for RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements, and can be configured independently; that is, for different RRM measurements, the base station configures the corresponding configuration information independently. For example, when measuring five different RRMs, the RRM measurement type information can be different for each RRM measurement; or, when configuring signal type information for each RRM measurement, the signal type information can be different for each RRM measurement; or, when configuring signal combination information for each RRM measurement, the signal combination information can be different for each RRM measurement. For example, as an embodiment of independently configuring configuration information for RRM measurements, it is also possible to configure the corresponding signal used for each measurement item separately. For instance, if the signals used to measure RSRP and RSSI of the same New Carrier Type (NCT) cell are different, then the signals used are configured separately. For example, RCRS is used to measure RSRP, while IMR or CSI-RS is used to measure RSSI. Furthermore, multiple cells or nodes around the UE may have different configurations, such as different carrier types or different transmitted signals or signal combinations. For example, not all cells or nodes transmit the same signal or signal combination that can be used for RRM measurements. In this case, independently configuring at least one configuration information for the relevant RRM measurements of each cell or node can be performed separately, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the UE's RRM measurements for each cell or node.

[0100] It should be noted that when configuring this configuration information, the base station or the base station configuration information determination module 401 may include only one or two of the following: RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement. When the user equipment receives one or two of the above configuration information, it can determine the remaining two or one configuration information based on predefined association relationships. For example, if the configuration information only includes RRM measurement type information, then when the user equipment receives the RRM measurement type information, it can determine the signal type information and signal combination information for RRM measurement based on predefined association relationships.

[0101] In the appendix Figure 4In the example of the wireless resource management measurement apparatus, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type information, signal type information, signal combination information, and measurement item information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements; in the appendix Figure 4 In another example of a wireless resource management (RRM) measurement apparatus, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type, signal combination information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements; or it includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type, signal type information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements; in the appendix Figure 4In another example of a radio resource management measurement apparatus, the signal type information includes one of the following signal types: Cell-specific Reference Signals (CRS), Reduced Cell-specific Reference Signals (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signals (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signals (SSS), Discovery Reference Signals (DRS), Broadcast Channel (BCH) signals, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR), and Channel State Information-Reference Signals (CSI-RS). The signal combination information includes any combination of CRS, RCRS, PSS, SSS, DRS, BCH, IMR, and CSI-RS. In the above embodiments, signal type information is used to indicate the type of signal or the signal type and configuration information of the signal required when the user equipment performs RRM measurement. Signal combination information is used to indicate the type of a set of signals and the configuration information of the signal required when the user equipment performs RRM measurement. Carrier type information can be Normal Carrier Type (NCT), Legacy Carrier Type (LCT), New Carrier Type 1 (NCT1), or New Carrier Type 2 (NCT2), etc. Optionally, the carrier type information corresponds to a predefined or default RRM measurement method under the carrier type information. For example, when the carrier type information is LCT, RRM measurement is performed based on CRS; when the carrier type information is NCT1, RRM measurement is performed based on RCRS; and when the carrier type information is NCT2, RRM measurement is performed based on cell-specific CSI-RS. The measurement item information can specifically refer to what kind of RRM measurement is performed, including one or more of RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI measurements. For example, only RSRP is measured, or only RSRP and RSSI are measured, or RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI are all measured.Alternatively, the measurement information can specifically refer to what kind of RRM measurement is performed on what kind of signal. For example, the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the CRS, and the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the CSI-RS. Or, the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the signal transmitted by the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement, and the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the signal of another cell synchronized with the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement. For example, an RRM measurement is performed on an NCT cell, the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the CRS transmitted by the NCT cell, and the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the CRS transmitted by an LCT cell synchronized with the NCT cell. Then, the measured RSSI and RSRP are used to calculate the RSRQ.

[0102] As one embodiment of the present invention, when configuring RRM measurement type information, the base station may include only one or more of the aforementioned information. When the user equipment receives one or more of the aforementioned configuration information, it can learn or determine the remaining configuration information based on predefined associations. For example, if the RRM measurement type information only includes carrier type information, then when the user equipment receives the RRM measurement type information, it can learn or determine any one or any combination of signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time domain parameter information, frequency domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information used for RRM measurement based on predefined associations. As another embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be configured by the UE's serving cell.

[0103] As one embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be communicated via broadcast signaling or dedicated signaling. For example, it may be communicated to multiple UEs via broadcast RRC signaling, or to a single UE via dedicated RRC signaling.

[0104] As mentioned above, signal type information can be the type of signal and configuration information of the signal required for the user equipment to perform RRM measurement. Signal combination information is the type of a set of signals and configuration information required for the user equipment to perform RRM measurement. Specifically, for RCRS, its configuration information includes at least one of RCRS shift and shift parameters, and RCRS time-domain location information. For CSI-RS, its configuration information includes at least one of CSI-RS pattern information, time-domain location information, and scrambling code ID. For PSS or SSS, its configuration information includes at least one of PSS or SSS presence, frequency-domain location information, and time-domain location information. For DRS, its configuration information includes at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, or at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, and corresponding sequence initialization ID information. For common control channels (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), its configuration information includes the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel, or may also include at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information.For example, when a base station notifies a user equipment (UE) to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH) or for a single RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), ... The user equipment (UE) is notified of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using PSS / SSS and CRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the scrambling code ID information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), it simultaneously notifies the UE of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to use IMR or ZP... When CSI-RS performs RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the user equipment of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or it may also notify at least one of frequency domain location information and time domain location information.

[0105] For the above-mentioned configuration information including signal type information for RRM measurement, the base station can configure the user equipment to use different types of signals for different RRM measurements, or configure the user equipment to use one signal for some RRM measurements and a combination of signals for other RRM measurements for multiple RRM measurements. The signals and signal combinations corresponding to multiple RRM measurements can be different.

[0106] After performing RRM measurements based on the configuration information sent by the base station, the user equipment feeds back the measurement results to the base station that sent the configuration information.

[0107] In this embodiment, where the RRM measurement type information determined by the configuration information determination module 401 includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type, signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time domain parameter information, frequency domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information corresponding to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurement, and the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, as an embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained by the at least two signals when instructing the user equipment to measure the same measurement item using at least two signals in the signal combination information. The weighting is used by the user equipment to statistically average the measurement values ​​of the measurement item according to the weighting to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS are statistically averaged, with the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS being 30% and the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on PSS / SSS being 70%. The RSRP measurement result is obtained by statistically averaging the weighted values. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment uses at least two signals in the signal combination type to measure the same measurement item, and a first adjustment value of the measurement values ​​obtained from the at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment uses at least two signals in the signal combination type to measure the same measurement item. The weighted average and the first adjustment value are used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the first adjustment value and then to perform a statistical average of the adjusted measurement value according to the weighted average to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS are statistically averaged. The RSRP value measured on RCRS is MdB and the adjustment value is 1dB. The RSRP value measured on PSS / SSS is NdB and the adjustment value is 0dB. After adjustment, the RSRP on RCRS is (M+1)dB and the RSRP on PSS / SSS is (N-0)dB. Then, a statistical average or feedback is performed. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a second adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. The second adjustment value is used to instruct the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the second adjustment value before comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value when comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value.In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a third adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using the at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. The third adjustment value is used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the third adjustment value and then use the adjusted measurement value to calculate another measurement item.

[0108] In this embodiment of the invention, the base station can configure different RRM measurement adjustment parameters according to the RRM measurements performed by the UE for different cells or different RRM measurements as needed. This allows different measurement adjustment parameters to be set for different RRM measurements based on the corresponding signal or signal type and signal parameters, instead of using the same measurement adjustment parameters for all RRM measurements or all RRM measurements. This ensures the accuracy of the UE's adjustment for the RRM measurements of a particular cell or node.

[0109] In the above embodiments of the present invention, the information items included in the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information have corresponding index numbers. As one embodiment of the configuration information sending module 402, it may include a first sending unit 501, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 5 The present invention provides a wireless resource management measurement apparatus according to another embodiment. A first transmitting unit 501 can transmit the index number corresponding to the information item contained in the aforementioned RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information to the user equipment, so that the user equipment can query a correspondence table based on the index number to obtain the RRM measurement type information or the signal combination information corresponding to the index number and then measure the RRM.

[0110] As one embodiment of the configuration information sending module 402, it may include a second sending unit 601, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 6 The diagram illustrates a wireless resource management (RRM) measurement apparatus according to another embodiment of the present invention. The second transmitting unit 601 can transmit a correspondence table and the index number to the user equipment, so that the user equipment can query the correspondence table based on the index number to obtain the RRM measurement type information or the signal combination information corresponding to the index number, and then measure the RRM. (See appendix...) Figure 5 Or attached Figure 6 In the example of the wireless resource management measurement apparatus, the correspondence table may be predefined, which includes the correspondence between the index number and the RRM measurement type information or the correspondence between the index number and the signal combination information.

[0111] In the appendix Figure 5Or attached Figure 6 In the example wireless resource management measurement device, the configuration information transmission module 402 does not directly send the information items contained in the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information to the user equipment. Instead, the first transmission unit 501 or the second transmission unit 601 sends the corresponding index number, which can save signaling and reduce the complexity of signaling design.

[0112] Corresponding to the appendix Figure 4 The present invention provides an apparatus for measuring wireless resource management information, in addition to the example apparatus for measuring wireless resource management information. Please refer to the appendix. Figure 7-a This is a schematic diagram of the device structure for measuring wireless resource management information provided in an embodiment of the present invention. For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiments of the present invention are shown. (See attached diagram.) Figure 7-a The example apparatus for measuring radio resource management information can be a user equipment or a functional unit / module therein, including a configuration information receiving module 701, a measurement module 702, and a feedback module 703, wherein:

[0113] The configuration information receiving module 701 is used to receive at least one configuration information for radio resource management (RRM) measurement sent by the base station. The configuration information includes at least one of RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement. The RRM measurement includes at least one of reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement, received signal strength indication (RSSI) measurement, and reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurement.

[0114] Measurement module 702 is used to perform the RRM measurement according to the configuration information;

[0115] The feedback module 703 is used to feed back the measurement results of the RRM measurement to the base station.

[0116] It should be noted that the division of functional modules in the above embodiments of the device for measuring radio resource management information is merely illustrative. In practical applications, the functions described above can be assigned to different functional modules based on needs, such as hardware configuration requirements or software implementation convenience. That is, the internal structure of the device for measuring radio resource management information can be divided into different functional modules to complete all or part of the functions described above. Furthermore, in practical applications, the corresponding functional modules in this embodiment can be implemented by corresponding hardware or by corresponding hardware executing corresponding software. For example, the aforementioned configuration information receiving module can be hardware capable of receiving at least one configuration information sent by the base station for radio resource management (RRM) measurement, such as a configuration information receiver, or it can be a general processor or other hardware device capable of executing a corresponding computer program to complete the aforementioned function. Similarly, the aforementioned measurement module can be hardware capable of performing the aforementioned RRM measurement function based on the configuration information, such as a measuring instrument, or it can be a general processor or other hardware device capable of executing a corresponding computer program to complete the aforementioned function (the above-described principles can be applied to all embodiments provided in this specification).

[0117] As mentioned earlier, RRM measurement can be at least one of RSRP measurement, RSSI measurement, and RSRQ measurement. The configuration information, configured by the base station and sent to the user equipment's configuration information receiving module 701, is a general term for RRM measurement type information, signal type information used for RRM measurement, and signal combination information used for RRM measurement, but is not limited to these configuration information. Furthermore, the aforementioned configuration information for RRM measurement is used for RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements, and can be configured independently; that is, the base station does not associate the configuration information with the measurements of different RRMs. For example, when measuring five different RRMs, the RRM measurement type information can be different for each RRM measurement, or the signal type information can be different for each RRM measurement, or the signal combination information can be different for each RRM measurement. For example, as an embodiment of independently configuring configuration information for RRM measurements, it is also possible to configure the corresponding signal used for each measurement item separately. For instance, if the signals used to measure RSRP and RSSI of the same new carrier type NCT cell are different, then the signals used are configured separately. For example, RCRS is used to measure RSRP, while IMR or CSI-RS is used to measure RSSI. Furthermore, multiple cells or nodes around the UE may have different configurations, such as different carrier types or different transmitted signals or signal combinations. For example, not all cells or nodes transmit the same signal or signal combination that can be used for RRM measurements. In this case, independently configuring at least one configuration information for the relevant RRM measurements of each cell or node can be performed separately, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the UE's RRM measurements for each cell or node.

[0118] It should be noted that when configuring this configuration information, the base station may include only one or two of the following: RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement. When the configuration information receiving module 701 receives one or two of the above configuration information, the user equipment can obtain or determine the remaining two or one configuration information based on predefined association relationships. For example, if the configuration information only includes RRM measurement type information, then when the configuration information receiving module 701 receives the RRM measurement type information, the user equipment can obtain or determine the signal type information and signal combination information for RRM measurement based on predefined association relationships. In one embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type information, signal type information, signal combination information, and measurement item information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements. In another embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of any of the following: carrier type, signal combination information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements; or it includes any one or a combination of the following: carrier type, signal type information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, used to instruct the user equipment to perform RRM measurements. Any combination of several types; in another embodiment of the present invention, the signal type information includes one of the following: Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (CRS), Simplified Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), Exploration Reference Signal (DRS), Broadcast Channel (BCH) signal, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR), and Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS). The signal combination information includes any combination of the following: Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (CRS), Simplified Cell Dedicated Reference Signal (RCRS), Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), Exploration Reference Signal (DRS), Broadcast Channel (BCH) signal, Interference Measurement Resource (IMR), and Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS). In the above embodiments, signal type information is used to indicate the type of signal or the type of signal and configuration information of the signal required when the user equipment performs RRM measurement. Signal combination information is used to indicate the type of a set of signals and configuration information of the signal required when the user equipment performs RRM measurement. Carrier type information can be Normal Carrier Type (NCT), Legacy Carrier Type (LCT), New Carrier Type 1 (NCT1), or New Carrier Type 2 (NCT2), etc.Optionally, the carrier type information can correspond to a predefined or default RRM measurement method under that carrier type information. For example, when the carrier type information is LCT, RRM measurement is performed based on CRS; when the carrier type information is NCT1, RRM measurement is performed based on RCRS; and when the carrier type information is NCT2, RRM measurement is performed based on cell-specific CSI-RS. The measurement item information package can specifically specify what type of RRM measurement is being performed, including performing one or more of RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI measurements. For example, only RSRP is measured, or only RSRP and RSSI are measured, or RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI are all measured. Alternatively, the measurement information can specifically refer to what kind of RRM measurement is performed on what kind of signal. For example, the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the CRS, and the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the CSI-RS. Or, the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the signal transmitted by the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement, and the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the signal of another cell synchronized with the cell corresponding to the RRM measurement. For example, an RRM measurement is performed on an NCT cell, the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is measured on the CRS transmitted by the NCT cell, and the reference signal received power (RSRP) is measured on the CRS transmitted by an LCT cell synchronized with the NCT cell. Then, the measured RSSI and RSRP are used to calculate the RSRQ.

[0119] As an embodiment of the present invention, when configuring RRM measurement type information, the base station may include only one or more of the aforementioned information. When the configuration information receiving module 701 receives one or more of the aforementioned configuration information, the user equipment can obtain or determine the remaining configuration information based on predefined association relationships. For example, if the RRM measurement type information only includes carrier type information, then when the configuration information receiving module 701 receives the RRM measurement type information, the user equipment can obtain or determine any one or any combination of signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time domain parameter information, frequency domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information used for RRM measurement based on predefined association relationships. As another embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be configured by the serving cell of the user equipment.

[0120] As one embodiment of the present invention, this configuration information may be communicated via broadcast signaling or dedicated signaling. For example, it may be communicated to multiple user equipments via broadcast RRC signaling, or to a single user equipment via dedicated RRC signaling.

[0121] As mentioned above, signal type information can be the type of signal and configuration information of the signal required for user equipment to perform RRM measurements. Signal combination information is the type and configuration information of a set of signals required for user equipment to perform RRM measurements. Specifically, for RCRS, its configuration information includes at least one of RCRS shift and shift parameters, and RCRS time-domain location information. For CSI-RS, its configuration information includes at least one of CSI-RS pattern information, time-domain location information, and scrambling code ID. For PSS or SSS, its configuration information includes at least one of PSS or SSS presence, frequency-domain location information, and time-domain location information. For DRS, its configuration information includes at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, or at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information, and corresponding sequence initialization ID information. For common control channels (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), its configuration information includes the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel, or may also include at least one of frequency-domain location information and time-domain location information.For example, when a base station notifies a user equipment (UE) to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a PSS / SSS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a single cell using a DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH) or for a single RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the corresponding sequence initialization ID information; when a base station notifies a UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), ... The user equipment (UE) is notified of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell using PSS / SSS and CRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the PSS / SSS; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using DRS, it simultaneously notifies the UE of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the DRS, as well as the scrambling code ID information; when the base station notifies the UE to perform RRM measurements for a cell or for an RRM measurement using a common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), it simultaneously notifies the UE of the scrambling code ID information of the common control channel (e.g., PBCH / ePBCH), or at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information; when the base station notifies the UE to use IMR or ZP... When CSI-RS performs RRM measurement for a cell or for an RRM measurement, it simultaneously notifies the user equipment of at least one of the frequency domain location information and time domain location information of the IMR or ZP CSI-RS.

[0122] Specifically, when the UE receives configuration information from the base station, the configuration information may include one of the following: the configuration information is configuration information for each type of RRM measurement, including a list of cells or a list of RRM measurements based on the configuration information; or, the configuration information is configuration information for each RRM measurement or the RRM measurement corresponding to each cell's RRM measurement.

[0123] As can be seen from the wireless resource management measurement method provided in the above embodiments of the present invention, the user equipment receives at least one configuration information for wireless resource management (RRM) measurement from the base station, which includes at least one of RRM measurement type information, signal type information for RRM measurement, and signal combination information for RRM measurement. Therefore, compared with the prior art which only blindly detects DRS, the method provided in the embodiments of the present invention enables the user equipment to directly perform multiple RRM measurements and process multiple RRM measurement results based on the configuration information, without needing to blindly detect the relevant configuration of each surrounding cell. This reduces the complexity of the user equipment and improves the accuracy of RRM measurement and processing. Moreover, the UE receives different configuration information from the base station for RRM measurements of different cells or different RRM measurements, thereby ensuring that the UE performs RRM measurements based on the characteristics of the signals sent by the corresponding cell or transmission point, rather than performing all RRM measurements based on only one signal, thus improving the accuracy of wireless resource management RRM measurement and processing.

[0124] In one embodiment where the RRM measurement type information includes any one or a combination of several of the following: carrier type, signal type information or signal combination information, measurement item information, time-domain parameter information, frequency-domain parameter information, and measurement value adjustment parameter information, the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for RRM measurement by the user equipment. As an embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals in the signal combination information when instructing the user equipment to measure the same measurement item using at least two signals. This weighting is used by the user equipment to statistically average the measurement values ​​of the measurement item based on the weighting to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, by statistically averaging the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS, the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS is 30%, and the weighting of the RSRP values ​​measured on PSS / SSS is 70%. The user equipment performs a statistical average based on the weighted values ​​to obtain the RSRP measurement result. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a weighted average of the measurement values ​​obtained from at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment measures the same measurement item using at least two signals in the signal combination type, and a first adjustment value of the measurement values ​​obtained from the at least two signals in the signal combination type when the user equipment measures the same measurement item using at least two signals in the signal combination type. The weighted average and the first adjustment value are used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the first adjustment value, and then to perform a statistical average of the adjusted measurement value according to the weighted average to obtain the measurement result of the measurement item. For example, by statistically averaging the RSRP values ​​measured on RCRS and PSS / SSS, if the RSRP value measured on RCRS is MdB and the adjustment value is 1dB, and the RSRP value measured on PSS / SSS is NdB and the adjustment value is 0dB, then the user equipment adjusts the values ​​to obtain an RSRP of (M+1)dB on RCRS and an RSRP of (N-0)dB on PSS / SSS, and then performs a statistical average or feedback. In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a second adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. The second adjustment value is used to instruct the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the second adjustment value before comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value when comparing the measurement value with the threshold value of the measurement item or with another measurement value.In another embodiment of the present invention, when the RRM measurement type information includes measurement value adjustment parameters for user equipment RRM measurement, the measurement value adjustment parameters include a third adjustment value of the measurement value obtained by the user equipment using the at least two signals to measure the same measurement item. This third adjustment value is used by the user equipment to adjust the measurement value according to the third adjustment value before using the adjusted measurement value to calculate another measurement item. In this embodiment of the present invention, the RRM measurement configuration information sent by the base station received by the UE may include different RRM measurement value adjustment parameters configured for different cells or different RRM measurements. This allows different measurement value adjustment parameters to be set for different RRM measurements based on the corresponding signal or signal type and signal parameters, rather than using the same measurement value adjustment parameters for all cells or all RRM measurements. This ensures the accuracy of the UE's adjustment for the RRM measurement of a particular cell or node.

[0125] In the above embodiments of the present invention, the information items included in the RRM measurement type information, signal type information, or signal combination information have corresponding index numbers.

[0131] Please see the appendix Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of a device for measuring wireless resource management information according to another embodiment of the present invention.
