[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, measuring the tracking reference signal according to the first information includes: the terminal starts measuring TRS1 to TRS M If the terminal measures that the signal strength of TRS1 is lower than the threshold TRS , then no longer measure TRS1 in the first measurement range, and start measuring from TRS2 in the second measurement range to TRS M+1 , and measure in sequence; if the terminal measures TRS including TRS N-M+1 To TRS N , it means that the last M TRSs of this cell have been measured and the measured M TRSs will remain unchanged until switching to a new cell.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, when the terminal accesses a cell, the network side can send the resource configuration of each TRS of the cell to the terminal. The terminal only needs to measure and track the reference signal according to the received TRS resource configuration and the maximum number of TRSs that the terminal supports to be measured simultaneously. In this way, even when the TRS measurement range changes, the network side does not need to notify the terminal, thereby reducing signaling and resource overhead.

[0068] See also Figure 3 An embodiment of the present application provides a method for tracking reference signal measurement, which is executed by a terminal, and the specific steps include: step 301 and step 302.

Optionally, the first message is an RRC connection reconfiguration message or a MAC CE command.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present application, when the terminal enters a new cell, starting from TRS1 in the first measurement range, it measures up to TRS M , if the signal strength of TRS1 measured by the terminal is lower than the measurement threshold threshold TRS , then it no longer measures TRS1, and in the second measurement range, it starts from TRS2 and measures up to TRS M+1 , and measures sequentially往后 until the measured TRS is TRS N-M+1 to TRS N , which means that the last M TRSs of this cell in the last measurement range have been measured, and the M measured TRSs will remain unchanged until switching to a new cell.

[0076] In an embodiment of the present application, when the terminal accesses a cell, the network side can send the resource configuration of each TRS of this cell to the terminal. The terminal only needs to measure the tracking reference signal according to the received resource configuration of the TRS and the maximum number of TRSs that the terminal supports to measure simultaneously. In this way, even when the TRS measurement range changes, the network side does not need to notify the terminal, reducing signaling and resource overhead.

[0077] See Figure 4 , when the terminal enters a new cell (the number of TRSs configured in the cell is N), the terminal reports the maximum number M of TRSs that it supports to measure simultaneously. The cell determines whether to send the TRS measurement configuration to the terminal according to the maximum number M of TRSs that the terminal supports to measure simultaneously.

[0078] If the maximum number M of TRSs that the terminal supports to measure simultaneously is M≥N, then there is no need to send the TRS measurement configuration, and the terminal measures all the TRSs.

[0079] If the maximum number M of TRSs that the terminal supports to measure simultaneously is M<N, the cell notifies the terminal through a reconfiguration message of the time-frequency resources of the TRSs sent by each TRP in this cell (in the order in which the terminal passes through the TRP, sending TRS1 / TRS2 / TRS3 / TRS4 / TRS5 / TRS6…… / TRS N ), and sends the TRS measurement threshold threshold TRS .

[0080] The terminal starts measuring from TRS1 to TRS M If the terminal measures that the signal strength of TRS1 is lower than the threshold TRS , then no longer measure TRS1, start measuring from TRS2 to TRS M+1 , and measure backwards in sequence.

[0081] If the terminal measures TRS as TRS N-M+1 To TRS N , it means that the last M TRSs of this cell have been measured and the measured M TRSs will remain unchanged until switching to a new cell.
