[0172] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, 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, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0173] When a terminal performs measurements, if there is no Service Bandwidth (SSB) within the active bandwidth part (BWP), a measurement gap (MG) is typically required. During this measurement gap, the connection to the current serving frequency is disconnected, and the frequency is tuned to the target SSB location for measurement. The measurement gap is configured via Radio Resource Control (RRC) and includes the measurement gap period, measurement gap length, and offset, as detailed below. Figure 1 As shown.

[0174] As mentioned earlier, when no specified reference symbol (SSB, Channel State Information Reference Signal, CSI-RS) is specified within the activated BWP, the terminal needs to complete the measurement through measurement intervals. BWP transitions can be indicated via Downlink Control Information (DCI). Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 Before and after BWP conversion, depending on the frequency domain position relationship between BWP and SSB, measurements that previously did not require measurement intervals may become measurements that do. Since BWP conversion can be based on DCI indication, while measurement interval configuration is issued via RRC, the RRC configuration latency is greater than the DCI latency, making it impossible to adjust the measurement interval configuration in a timely manner based on BWP conversion. In existing technologies, when there are scenarios requiring MG before and after BWP conversion, the measurement latency index is uniformly processed according to the required measurement interval. Based on this processing method, in scenarios where measurement intervals are not required, terminal scheduling is also impossible, impacting system performance.

[0175] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a measurement method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes:

[0176] Step 31: When the measurement of the target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement outside the measurement interval does not require the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0177] Specifically, when the measurement of the target object changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement outside the measurement interval does not require the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0178] In other words, when the measurement of the target changes from a measurement that does not require a measurement interval to a measurement that requires a measurement interval, or vice versa, the measurement-related indicators that do not require a measurement interval should be applied when the measurement does not require a measurement interval.

[0179] The measurement target can also be described as a measurement object. Furthermore, the measurement target can be a target at the same frequency or a target at a different frequency.

[0180] Additionally, the measurement period can also be referred to as measurement duration or measurement latency, which is the time required to complete one measurement. Specifically, the measurement period refers to the time within which the terminal needs to complete the identification and measurement of the target, including cell identification indicators and / or measurement latency indicators.

[0181] In this embodiment of the invention, a solution is proposed that addresses the existing technology's approach where measurement intervals exist before and after BWP conversion. Instead, the measurement latency index is uniformly processed according to the required measurement interval. The proposed solution addresses situations where, within the measurement cycle, measurements that do not require a measurement interval are converted to measurements requiring a measurement interval due to BWP conversion or other reasons, or vice versa, the measurement latency index for measurements that do not require a measurement interval is applied. This allows the terminal to schedule data transmission during measurements that do not require a measurement interval within the measurement cycle, improving system throughput and ultimately enhancing system performance. In other words, the terminal can send and receive data when performing measurements that do not require a measurement interval within the measurement interval.

[0182] Optionally, the measurement method further includes:

[0183] When the measurement of a target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement within the measurement interval requires the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0184] Specifically, when the measurement of a target changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement within the measurement interval requires the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0185] In other words, when the measurement of the target changes from a measurement that does not require a measurement interval to a measurement that requires a measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement that requires a measurement interval to a measurement that does not require a measurement interval, the measurement delay index that requires a measurement interval should be applied when the measurement requires a measurement interval.

[0186] Optionally, the measurement-related metrics include cell identification metrics and / or measurement delay metrics.

[0187] Specifically, the entire measurement process generally includes the cell identification process and the actual measurement process.

[0188] Cell identification metrics can also be described as cell identification latency or cell identification duration. Measurement latency metrics can also be described as measurement latency or measurement duration.

[0189] In one optional implementation, when the measurement of a target at the same frequency is converted from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement requiring a measurement interval within the measurement period (or measurement duration), or from a measurement requiring a measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the cell identification and measurement duration indicators for the measurement outside the measurement interval apply the indicators that do not require a measurement interval, and the cell identification and measurement duration indicators for the measurement requiring a measurement interval apply the indicators that require a measurement interval.

[0190] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating a measurement method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes:

[0191] Step 41: When the measurement of the target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, a shorter measurement-related index shall be applied to the measurement outside the measurement interval.

[0192] Specifically, when the measurement of a target changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, a shorter measurement-related index is applied to the measurement outside the measurement interval.

[0193] In this embodiment of the invention, a solution is proposed that addresses the existing technology's approach where measurement intervals exist before and after BWP conversion. Instead, the measurement latency index is uniformly processed according to the required measurement interval. The proposed solution addresses situations where, within the measurement cycle, measurements that do not require a measurement interval are converted to measurements requiring a measurement interval due to BWP conversion or other reasons, or vice versa, the measurement latency index for measurements that do not require a measurement interval is applied. This allows the terminal to schedule data transmission during measurements that do not require a measurement interval within the measurement cycle, improving system throughput and ultimately enhancing system performance. In other words, the terminal can send and receive data when performing measurements that do not require a measurement interval within the measurement interval.

[0194] Optionally, the measurement method further includes:

[0195] When the measurement of a target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, a longer measurement-related index shall be applied to the measurement within the measurement interval.

[0196] Specifically, when the measurement of the target object changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement within the measurement interval should use a longer measurement-related index.

[0197] Optionally, the measurement-related metrics include cell identification metrics and / or measurement delay metrics.

[0198] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating a measurement method provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes:

[0199] Step 51: When the measurement of the target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement outside the measurement interval does not require the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0200] Specifically, when the measurement of the target object changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement outside the measurement interval does not require the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0201] Step 52: When the measurement of the target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, a shorter measurement-related index shall be applied to the measurement outside the measurement interval.

[0202] Specifically, when the measurement of a target changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, a shorter measurement-related index is applied to the measurement outside the measurement interval.

[0203] In this embodiment of the invention, a solution is proposed that addresses the existing technology's approach where measurement intervals exist before and after BWP conversion. Instead, the measurement latency index is uniformly processed according to the required measurement interval. The proposed solution addresses situations where, within the measurement cycle, measurements that do not require a measurement interval are converted to measurements requiring a measurement interval due to BWP conversion or other reasons, or vice versa, the measurement latency index for measurements that do not require a measurement interval is applied. This allows the terminal to schedule data transmission during measurements that do not require a measurement interval within the measurement cycle, improving system throughput and ultimately enhancing system performance. In other words, the terminal can send and receive data when performing measurements that do not require a measurement interval within the measurement interval.

[0204] Optionally, the measurement method further includes:

[0205] When the measurement of the target object is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement within the measurement interval requires the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0206] Specifically, when the measurement of the target object changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement within the measurement interval requires the measurement-related indicators of the measurement interval.

[0207] When the measurement of the target is changed from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, a longer measurement-related index shall be applied to the measurement within the measurement interval.

[0208] Specifically, when the measurement of the target object changes from a measurement outside the measurement interval to a measurement within the measurement interval within the measurement cycle, or from a measurement within the measurement interval to a measurement outside the measurement interval, the measurement within the measurement interval should use a longer measurement-related index.

[0209] Optionally, the measurement-related metrics include cell identification metrics and / or measurement delay metrics.

[0210] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating a measurement method provided in Embodiment 4 of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes the following steps:

[0211] Step 61: If a measurement interval is configured, and a measurement that does not require a measurement interval is performed, data can be sent and received within the measurement interval according to the scheduling of the network-side device.

[0212] In other words, the terminal is configured with a measurement interval. During measurements that do not require a measurement interval, the terminal can send or receive data within the measurement interval.

[0213] In this embodiment of the invention, a solution is proposed that changes the existing technology where there are scenarios requiring measurement intervals before and after BWP conversion, and the measurement latency index is uniformly processed according to the required measurement interval, resulting in the inability to schedule the terminal for data transmission in scenarios where no measurement interval is required. The proposed solution is that even if the terminal is configured with a measurement interval, it can still send or receive data within the measurement interval when performing measurements that do not require a measurement interval. This allows the terminal to be scheduled for data transmission when no measurement interval is required during the measurement cycle, thereby improving system throughput and ultimately enhancing system performance.

[0214] Optionally, the measurements that do not require a measurement interval include in-frequency measurements and / or out-of-frequency measurements.

[0215] In other words, the terminal is configured with a measurement interval. In same-frequency measurements where no measurement interval is required, the terminal can transmit or receive within the measurement interval. The terminal is configured with a measurement interval. In different-frequency measurements where no measurement interval is required, the terminal can transmit or receive within the measurement interval.

[0216] In related technologies, SSB transmissions at different frequencies (MOs) are completely independent: the SSB period, duration, and offset can all be different. Each user equipment (UE) has only one set of measurement interval configurations, and the UE performs measurements on all MOs based on this set of measurement intervals. This can lead to scenarios where one set of measurement intervals cannot cover all MOs, resulting in some MOs not being measured, for example... Figure 7 F3 in the equation will never be measured.

[0217] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a flowchart illustrating a measurement method provided in Embodiment 5 of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes the following steps:

[0218] Step 81: Receive first information sent by the network-side device; wherein the first information includes at least two sets of information related to the first measurement interval.

[0219] The first information can be the first configuration information, which can be sent via RRC messages. This means that network-side devices can configure multiple measurement intervals for the terminal via RRC. The first information can also be sent via DCI, or via MAC CE.

[0220] Optionally, the information related to the first measurement interval may be information about the configuration of the first measurement interval. This information may include at least one of the following: measurement interval period, measurement interval offset, measurement interval length, and measurement interval time advance. Each set of information related to the first measurement interval contains only one measurement interval period, and / or one measurement interval offset, and / or one measurement interval length, and / or one measurement interval time advance.

[0221] In other words, a set of information related to a first measurement interval is used to configure a first measurement interval.

[0222] Information related to the first measurement interval also includes the measurement interval identifier of the first measurement interval, and / or, the measurement interval index of the first measurement interval.

[0223] In this embodiment of the invention, the network-side device configures multiple sets of measurement intervals for the terminal, thereby ensuring that all configured frequency points can be measured and improving the system's mobility performance.

[0224] For example, please refer to Figure 9 The network-side equipment simultaneously configures two sets of measurement intervals (MG1 and MG2) for the terminal. MG1 can be used to measure F1 and F2, and MG2 can be used to measure F3.

[0225] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0226] The terminal receives a first application instruction message sent by a network-side device. The first application instruction message is used to instruct the terminal to perform measurements using one or more of the at least two sets of first measurement intervals.

[0227] In other words, after configuring multiple sets of measurement intervals for the terminal, the network-side equipment can instruct the terminal to use one or more of these measurement intervals for measurement.

[0228] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0229] Receive fourth information sent by the network-side device, the fourth information being used to indicate at least one of the following:

[0230] Whether to apply or activate multiple sets of the first measurement interval, or whether to apply or activate multiple sets of the first measurement interval for measurement; that is, the fourth information can be used to indicate whether the terminal applies multiple sets of the first measurement interval for measurement at the same time, or the fourth information can indicate whether the terminal opens two or more measurement intervals.

[0231] Whether to apply or activate a set of the first measurement intervals, or in other words, whether to apply or activate a set of the first measurement intervals for measurement.

[0232] The aforementioned measurements can be Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurements, positioning-related measurements, or other measurements requiring measurement intervals. RRM measurements can also be described as mobility measurements, such as measurements of synchronization signal blocks and / or physical broadcast channel blocks (SSBs, i.e., SS / PBCH blocks) or channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS). Positioning-related measurements include, for example, measurements of positioning reference signals (PRS).

[0233] Specifically, applying multiple sets of the first measurement intervals for measurement means applying at least two sets of the first measurement intervals simultaneously, or it can be understood as applying at least two sets of the first measurement intervals for measurement within a certain time period. The multiple sets of measurement intervals can completely overlap in the time domain, partially overlap in the time domain, or not overlap in the time domain. Applying one set of the first measurement interval for measurement means applying one set of the first measurement interval for measurement within a certain time period.

[0234] Specifically, the fourth message can be used to notify the terminal to enable two or more measurement intervals. After receiving the fourth message, the terminal enables the corresponding multiple measurement intervals for measurement. If the terminal does not receive the fourth message, it applies the default measurement interval. The fourth message can also be used to notify the terminal to disable two or more measurement intervals. After receiving the fourth message, the terminal disables the function of applying multiple measurement intervals and applies the default measurement interval.

[0235] Regarding the multiple measurement intervals that can be enabled, after receiving the fourth information that notifies the terminal to enable two or more measurement intervals, the terminal can enable all measurement intervals configured by the network-side device for measurement, or the terminal can enable multiple sets of measurement intervals indicated by the sixth information for measurement.

[0236] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0237] Receive a sixth message, the sixth message being used to notify the terminal application of or activate a first measurement interval, the sixth message including at least one of the following:

[0238] The measurement interval identifier of the first measurement interval to be applied or activated by the terminal;

[0239] In other words, the first measurement interval used or activated can be notified to the terminal through the measurement interval identifier;

[0240] The measurement interval index of the first measurement interval to be applied or activated by the terminal;

[0241] In other words, the first measurement interval used or activated can be notified to the terminal through the measurement interval index;

[0242] The order in which the terminal applies or activates the first measurement interval configuration. That is, the configuration order of the first measurement intervals can inform the terminal which first measurement interval to use or activate. Specifically, among two or more configured first measurement intervals, the order of these multiple first measurement intervals in the configuration or signaling indicates which first measurement interval the terminal should use or activate. For example, the sixth information can instruct the terminal to use or activate a third first measurement interval; that is, the terminal can use or activate the third first measurement interval in the configuration or signaling.

[0243] In this embodiment of the invention, the sixth piece of information may be sent from the network-side device to the terminal.

[0244] In addition, only one set of first measurement intervals is configured for each set of information related to the first measurement interval.

[0245] Specifically, the sixth information is used to notify the terminal of the first measurement interval adopted. This mainly refers to the sixth information notifying the terminal which first measurement interval to adopt or activate among the at least two configured first measurement intervals, or which sets of first measurement intervals to adopt or activate.

[0246] The above measurement interval identifier can also be described as a measurement interval pattern identifier, and the above measurement interval index can also be described as a measurement interval pattern index.

[0247] Specifically, network-side devices can configure multiple measurement intervals for terminals and then instruct the terminals to use one of these intervals for measurement. This allows terminals to flexibly use different measurement intervals at different times. Alternatively, after configuring multiple measurement intervals for a terminal, the network-side device can instruct the terminal to use multiple sets of measurement intervals. While this method requires the terminal to maintain multiple measurement intervals simultaneously, it avoids the interruptions caused by measurement interval switching.

[0248] In this embodiment of the invention, the terminal performs measurements using the corresponding measurement interval according to the instructions (sixth information) from the network-side device. In some optional implementations, the network-side device may indicate the gap pattern ID of the measurement interval to be applied by the terminal, or it may notify the terminal of the applied measurement interval by indicating the order of multiple measurement interval configurations. When the network-side device does not provide an instruction, the terminal may apply the default measurement interval or apply all measurement intervals configured by the network-side device.

[0249] Optionally, in this embodiment of the invention, the information received by the terminal can be carried in at least one of the following ways:

[0250] Media Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE);

[0251] Downlink Control Information (DCI);

[0252] Radio Resource Control (RRC).

[0253] In other words, all information received by the terminal can be carried by MAC CE and / or DCI and / or RRC signaling.

[0254] Specifically, the measurement is performed using one or more of the at least two sets of first measurement intervals, that is, by using one or more of the at least two sets of first measurement intervals, or by activating one or more of the at least two sets of first measurement intervals. In other words, applying a measurement interval can also be described as activating a measurement interval, or by using a measurement interval.

[0255] It should be noted that the information received by the terminal includes the first to thirteenth information, and at least one of the first to fourth durations.

[0256] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0257] The terminal receives an eighth message sent by a network-side device. The eighth message is used to notify the terminal of relevant information about the default application or the first measurement interval that is activated.

[0258] In this embodiment of the invention, the eighth piece of information used to notify the terminal of the default measurement interval in the first measurement interval of the default application or activation specifically includes:

[0259] When the network-side device notifies the terminal to close or deactivate multiple sets of first measurement intervals, the measurement interval adopted or activated by the terminal is:

[0260] When the network-side device notifies the terminal to disable or deactivate multiple sets of first measurement intervals, and the network-side device does not indicate to the terminal to adopt or activate a set of first measurement intervals, the measurement interval adopted or activated by the terminal.

[0261] The information here regarding the default application or the first measurement interval that is activated includes at least one of the following:

[0262] Measurement interval related configurations include measurement interval period, and / or measurement interval offset, and / or measurement interval length, and / or measurement interval time advance;

[0263] Measurement interval identifier or measurement interval index;

[0264] The order of the first measurement interval configuration.

[0265] In this embodiment of the invention, the network-side device can explicitly indicate the default measurement interval through the eighth information.

[0266] In other alternative embodiments, the network-side device may implicitly indicate the order of the information related to the first measurement interval in the first information, or may implicitly indicate the order of sending the information related to the first measurement interval. For example, the first measurement interval corresponding to the first information related to the first measurement interval in at least two sets of information related to the first measurement interval is the first measurement interval to be applied by default.

[0267] In this embodiment of the invention, a default measurement interval indication is introduced, which can be implicitly notified to the terminal or explicitly notified to the terminal.

[0268] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0269] The terminal receives a ninth message sent by the network-side device. The ninth message is used to notify the terminal to disable or deactivate information related to the first measurement interval adopted by the terminal after multiple sets of first measurement intervals are turned off or deactivated.

[0270] In other words, the network-side device can notify the terminal through the ninth information which first measurement interval to use for measurement after multiple measurement intervals are closed. This first measurement interval can be different from the default first measurement interval.

[0271] Specifically, the relevant information for the first measurement interval may be at least one of the following:

[0272] Measurement interval related configurations include measurement interval period, and / or measurement interval offset, and / or measurement interval length, and / or measurement interval time advance;

[0273] Measurement interval identifier or measurement interval index;

[0274] The order of the first measurement interval configuration.

[0275] Optionally, the method further includes at least one of the following:

[0276] The terminal receives a first duration sent by the network-side device. The first duration is the duration from when the terminal starts the application or activates multiple sets of the first measurement intervals (or starts the application or activates multiple sets of the first measurement intervals for measurement) to when it only applies or activates one set of the first measurement intervals (or only applies or activates one set of the first measurement intervals for measurement). In other words, the first duration is the duration for the terminal to apply multiple measurement intervals. Specifically, it can be implemented by a timer. When the timer expires, the terminal resumes applying or activating only one set of measurement intervals for measurement. This set of measurement intervals can be the default measurement interval or the measurement interval indicated by the sixth information mentioned above.

[0277] The terminal receives a second duration sent by the network-side device. The second duration is the duration from when the terminal starts the application or activates multiple sets of the first measurement intervals (or starts the application or activates multiple sets of the first measurement intervals to perform measurement) to when it closes or deactivates multiple sets of the first measurement intervals (or performs measurement and then closes or deactivates multiple sets of the first measurement intervals).

[0278] This invention introduces a switching mechanism that allows for the simultaneous activation of multiple measurement intervals and the activation of only one measurement interval. Specifically, the switching can be indicated by a notification message or controlled by a timer.

[0279] This invention introduces a rapid measurement interval scheme, which clarifies the terminal behavior within the measurement interval and enables the configuration or adjustment of the measurement interval based on DCI, thereby meeting the need for rapid adjustment of the measurement interval due to changes in BWP and improving the system's mobility performance.

[0280] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0281] The terminal receives an eleventh message sent by the network-side device. The eleventh message is used to notify the terminal of the frequency point information measured in at least a portion of the multiple measurement intervals when applying multiple measurement intervals (or, to notify the terminal to perform measurements using multiple measurement intervals).

[0282] Specifically, the measurement interval is the first measurement interval.

[0283] Frequency information includes the Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number (ARFCN) and the measurement object (MO).

[0284] In other words, when the network-side device instructs the terminal to use two or more measurement intervals, the network-side device can further specify the specific frequency points to be measured in different measurement intervals. In particular, when a certain frequency point can be measured in multiple measurement intervals, the network-side device can instruct the terminal in which measurement interval to measure that frequency point.

[0285] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0286] The terminal receives a twelfth message sent by the network-side device. The twelfth message is used to notify the terminal of the priority of the frequency points measured in at least some of the multiple measurement intervals when applying multiple measurement intervals (or, to notify the terminal to perform measurements using multiple measurement intervals).

[0287] Specifically, the measurement interval is the first measurement interval.

[0288] In this embodiment of the invention, frequency point measurement priority can be introduced to notify the terminal to apply different measurement intervals to frequency points with different measurement priorities.

[0289] For example, the network-side device can instruct the terminal to use a first measurement interval for measuring high-priority frequency points and a second measurement interval for measuring low-priority frequency points.

[0290] For example, the network-side device can instruct the terminal to use a first type of first measurement interval for frequency points with the first measurement priority, a second type of first measurement interval for frequency points with the second measurement priority, and so on, using a Nth type of first measurement interval for frequency points with the Nth measurement priority.

[0291] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0292] Send first terminal capability information to the network-side device. The first terminal capability information is used to indicate whether the terminal supports applying or activating multiple sets of first measurement intervals, and / or whether it supports switching or conversion between multiple sets of first measurement intervals, and / or whether it supports switching or conversion between multiple sets of first measurement intervals and one set of first measurement intervals.

[0293] In other words, this embodiment of the invention introduces a terminal capability indicating whether it supports enabling two or more measurement intervals. It also introduces a terminal capability indicating whether dynamic measurement interval updates are supported.

[0294] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0295] Send second terminal capability information to the network-side device. The second terminal capability information is used to indicate the number of measurement intervals supported by the terminal or the maximum number of measurement intervals supported.

[0296] The measurement intervals supported by the terminal include a first measurement interval and / or a second measurement interval.

[0297] The number of supported measurement intervals can be the number of measurement intervals that the terminal can simultaneously apply, activate, or enable, or the number of measurement intervals that can be applied or activated within a certain period of time.

[0298] The maximum number of supported measurement intervals refers to the maximum number of measurement intervals that a terminal can open (or apply or activate) at the same time, but the actual number of measurement intervals that the terminal can open at the same time may be less than the maximum number.

[0299] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0300] The terminal receives third information sent by the network-side device, which is used to notify the terminal of the mapping relationship or correspondence between the BWP and the measurement interval.

[0301] The measurement interval is the first measurement interval.

[0302] Optionally, the third information includes at least one of the following:

[0303] Mapping or correspondence between BWP identifiers or indexes and measurement interval indexes or identifiers;

[0304] The mapping or correspondence between BWP identifiers or indexes and the configuration order of measurement intervals;

[0305] Each BWP identifier or index is configured with corresponding measurement interval related information, which includes measurement interval period, and / or measurement interval length, and / or measurement interval offset, and / or measurement interval time advance, and / or measurement interval mode index, and / or configuration order of measurement intervals.

[0306] Optionally, the third information may specifically include at least one of the following:

[0307] Mapping relationship between BWP identifiers and measurement interval identifiers;

[0308] The correspondence between BWP markings and measurement interval markings;

[0309] Mapping relationship between BWP identifiers and measurement interval indexes;

[0310] The correspondence between BWP identifiers and measurement interval indexes;

[0311] Mapping relationship between BWP index and measurement interval identifier;

[0312] The correspondence between the BWP index and the measurement interval identifier;

[0313] Mapping relationship between BWP index and measurement interval index;

[0314] The correspondence between the BWP index and the measurement interval index;

[0315] The mapping relationship between BWP identifiers and the configuration order of measurement intervals;

[0316] The correspondence between BWP identifiers and the configuration order of measurement intervals;

[0317] The mapping relationship between the BWP index and the configuration order of the measurement interval;

[0318] The correspondence between the BWP index and the configuration order of the measurement interval;

[0319] Information related to the measurement interval corresponding to each BWP identifier;

[0320] Each BWP index corresponds to measurement interval information.

[0321] The measurement interval is the first measurement interval.

[0322] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0323] After BWP conversion or switching, the terminal application or activation of the corresponding measurement interval.

[0324] Alternatively, after a BWP conversion or switch, the terminal application or activation of the corresponding measurement interval for the BWP.

[0325] Specifically, after a BWP switch or conversion occurs within the measurement period, the terminal activates or applies the corresponding measurement interval of the BWP.

[0326] The BWP conversion / switching can be DCI-based, timer-based, or RRC-based.

[0327] Specifically, the terminal applies or activates the measurement interval corresponding to the corresponding BWP based on the mapping or correspondence between the terminal BWP and the measurement interval.

[0328] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0329] The terminal receives the thirteenth message sent by the network-side device, the thirteenth message being used to notify the terminal of at least one of the following:

[0330] Whether to enable or activate the configuration of BWP-based measurement intervals; where BWP-based can also be described as based on each BWP;

[0331] Whether to enable or deactivate BWP-based measurement interval activation or deactivation; specifically, BWP-based measurement interval activation or deactivation includes the measurement interval being activated or deactivated accordingly with the conversion or switching of the BWP. For example, after a BWP conversion or switching, the measurement interval corresponding to the previous BWP is deactivated, and the measurement interval corresponding to the current BWP is activated. In other words, the measurement interval is converted or switched accordingly with the conversion or switching of the BWP. BWP-based measurement interval activation or deactivation is a mechanism; when this mechanism is enabled or activated, the measurement interval changes with the change (conversion or switching) of the BWP; otherwise, the measurement interval does not change with the change (conversion or switching) of the BWP.

[0332] Whether to enable quick measurement interval configuration. "Quick measurement interval configuration" can also be described as "pre-configured measurement interval", which specifically includes the measurement interval being activated / deactivated according to the corresponding BWP as the BWP is converted / switched.

[0333] Please see Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a flowchart illustrating a measurement method provided in Embodiment Six of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes the following steps:

[0334] Step 101: Receive second information sent by the network-side device; wherein the second information includes at least one set of information related to the second measurement interval.

[0335] Optionally, the information related to the second measurement interval includes at least one of the following: measurement gap repetition period (MGRP), measurement gap offset, measurement gap length (MGL), and measurement gap time advance. A set of information for the second measurement interval may contain at least two measurement gap periods, and / or at least two measurement gap offsets, and / or at least two measurement gap lengths, and / or at least two measurement gap time advances. That is, in this embodiment of the invention, a set of information related to the measurement interval may include multiple measurement gap periods and / or multiple measurement gap durations and / or multiple measurement gap offsets and / or multiple measurement gap time advances.

[0336] In other words, the information related to the second measurement interval is used to configure at least two sets of measurement intervals.

[0337] In addition, the information related to the second measurement interval also includes the measurement interval identifier of the second measurement interval, and / or the measurement interval index of the second measurement interval.

[0338] The second information can be configuration information for the second measurement interval, which can be sent via RRC messages. That is, the network-side device can configure a set of measurement intervals for the terminal via RRC. The information related to the second measurement interval can be the configuration information for the second measurement interval. Multiple second measurement intervals can be configured under one set of configurations; in other words, one measurement interval configuration can configure multiple second measurement intervals. The second information can also be sent via DCI or MAC CE.

[0339] like Figure 11 As shown, in the prior art, each terminal has only one set of measurement interval configurations, and one set of measurement interval configurations can only configure one set of measurement intervals. In other words, according to the prior art, only one set of measurement interval configurations can determine one set of measurement intervals. This measurement interval configuration method has the problem that some frequency points will never be measured.

[0340] This invention introduces a new measurement interval configuration. One measurement interval configuration can be configured with multiple measurement intervals, thereby ensuring that all configured frequency points can be measured and improving the system's mobility performance.

[0341] For example, please refer to Figure 12There are two measurement interval offsets (gap offset1 and gap offset2) and two measurement interval durations (MGL1 and MGL2) in a measurement cycle.

[0342] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0343] The terminal receives a second application instruction message sent by the network-side device. The second application instruction message is used to instruct the terminal to perform measurements using one or more sets of measurement intervals configured by the second measurement interval configuration.

[0344] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0345] The terminal receives a seventh message, which is used to notify the terminal of the second measurement interval adopted or activated (the measurement interval configured by the second measurement interval configuration), and the seventh message includes at least one of the following:

[0346] The measurement interval identifier of the second measurement interval to be applied or activated by the terminal;

[0347] In other words, the second measurement interval used or activated can be notified to the terminal through the measurement interval identifier;

[0348] The measurement interval index of the second measurement interval to be applied or activated by the terminal;

[0349] In other words, the second measurement interval used or activated can be notified to the terminal through the measurement interval index;

[0350] The order in which the terminal applies or activates the second measurement interval configuration. In other words, the order of the second measurement interval configurations can be used to inform the terminal of the second measurement interval to be used or activated. Specifically, this can be understood as follows: among two or more configured second measurement intervals, the order of these multiple second measurement intervals in the configuration or signaling indicates which second measurement interval the terminal should use or activate. For example, the seventh information can instruct the terminal to use or activate the third one; that is, the terminal can use or activate the third second measurement interval in the configuration or signaling.

[0351] In one specific implementation, the network-side device can instruct the terminal to determine the measurement interval based on which one or more measurement interval periods and / or measurement interval duration and / or measurement interval offset are related to the information of the second measurement interval.

[0352] In this embodiment of the invention, the seventh piece of information may be sent from the network-side device to the terminal.

[0353] Each set of information related to the second measurement interval can be configured with two or more sets of second measurement intervals.

[0354] The above measurement interval identifier can also be described as a measurement interval pattern identifier, and the above measurement interval index can also be described as a measurement interval pattern index.

[0355] When the information related to the measurement interval includes multiple measurement interval periods and / or multiple measurement interval durations and / or multiple measurement interval offsets, one implementation is to simultaneously enable (or enable) multiple measurement interval periods and / or multiple measurement interval durations and / or multiple measurement interval offsets. For example, Figure 12 The measurement interval offset 1, measurement interval offset 2, MGL1, and MGL2 all exist, and the terminal performs measurements in MGL1 and MGL2. In another implementation, the network-side device notifies the terminal of a measurement interval period, a measurement interval duration, and a measurement interval offset used within a certain time period. For example, Figure 12 As shown, only one of gap offset1+MGL1 and gap offset2+MGL2 is enabled, and the terminal performs measurements in either MGL1 or MGL2. The measurement interval offset and / or measurement interval duration used within the measurement interval period at different time domain locations can be different.

[0356] Optionally, in this embodiment of the invention, the information received by the terminal can be carried in at least one of the following ways:

[0357] Media Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE);
