Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a measurement configuration method, device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] In existing 5G technologies, there are two types of measurement interval capabilities and configurations: per-UE measurement gap (measurement gap for a single user equipment) and per-FR measurement gap (measurement gap for a single frequency range). Per-FR measurement gap means that independent measurement gaps can be configured for FR (Frequency Range) 1 and FR2. The network can configure per-FR measurement gaps for UEs (User Equipment) that support independent gap configuration.

[0138] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the network-side device structure in an embodiment of the present invention;

[0139] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the terminal structure in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0140] Current per-FR measurement interval configurations are unsuitable for future needs involving more and higher frequencies. Therefore, this invention provides a measurement configuration scheme to address these needs.

[0141] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0142] In this explanation, the implementation will be described separately for the UE and the network-side equipment. Examples of their combined implementation will also be provided to better understand the implementation of the solutions presented in this embodiment. This explanation does not imply that the two must be implemented together or separately. In fact, when the UE and the network-side equipment are implemented separately, they each address the problems of the UE and network-side equipment respectively. However, using them together will achieve better technical results.

[0143] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the implementation process for the measurement configuration method of network-side devices is shown in the figure, which may include:

[0144] Step 101: The network-side device receives capability information reported by the terminal, including one or a combination of the following: whether it supports independent measurement interval configuration for FR1 and FR2, and whether it supports independent measurement interval configuration for a certain FR; whether it supports configuring independent measurement intervals for each FR or each FR pair; the number of supported independent measurement interval configurations, and the corresponding frequency range or frequency; the number of supported independent measurement interval configurations, and the corresponding frequency band; the frequency range or frequency corresponding to the supported independent measurement interval configurations; and the frequency band corresponding to the supported independent measurement interval configurations.

[0145] Step 102: The network-side device configures the measurement interval for the terminal based on the capability information.

[0146] Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the implementation process for the measurement configuration method on the terminal side is shown in the figure, and may include:

[0147] Step 201: The terminal reports capability information including one or a combination of the following: whether it supports independent measurement interval configuration for FR1 and FR2, and whether it supports independent measurement interval configuration for a certain FR; whether it supports configuring independent measurement intervals for each FR or each FR pair; the number of supported independent measurement interval configurations, and the corresponding frequency range or frequency; the number of supported independent measurement interval configurations, and the corresponding frequency band; the frequency range or frequency corresponding to the supported independent measurement interval configurations; and the frequency band corresponding to the supported independent measurement interval configurations.

[0148] Step 202: The terminal receives the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network-side device based on the capability information.

[0149] The following examples illustrate the specific implementation.

[0150] 1. The terminal reports capability information, which includes one or more of the following:

[0151] A. Report whether independent measurement interval configuration for FR1 and FR2 is supported, and whether independent measurement interval configuration for a certain FR is supported. Report whether independent measurement interval configuration for FR1 and FR2 is supported, and whether independent measurement interval configuration for FR3, FR2-2, or FR2-1 is supported.

[0152] Specifically, whether it supports independent measurement interval configuration for FR1 and FR2, and whether it supports independent measurement interval configuration for a specific FR.

[0153] For example, the terminal reports support configuring independent measurement intervals for FR1 and FR2, and also supports configuring independent measurement intervals for FR3 / FR2-2.

[0154] B. Report whether it supports configuring independent measurement intervals for each FR or each FR pair, where each FR pair represents a combination of two or more FRs.

[0155] When the terminal supports FR1, FR2, and FR3, it reports independent measurement intervals that support FR1 and FR2, independent measurement intervals that support FR1 and FR3, but independent measurement intervals that do not support FR2 and FR3.

[0156] Specifically, does it support configuring independent measurement intervals for each FR or each FR pair?

[0157] For example: The terminal supports FR1, FR2, and FR3. The terminal reports that it supports independent measurement intervals for FR1 and FR2, and independent measurement intervals for FR1 and FR3, but does not support independent measurement intervals for FR2 and FR3.

[0158] C. Report the number of independent measurement interval configurations supported, and the corresponding frequency range or frequency, where the corresponding frequency range / frequency is a frequency range / frequency or a pair of frequency ranges / frequency.

[0159] The report supports three independent measurement interval configurations, with corresponding frequency ranges of FR1, FR2, and 7-24GHz; or, the report supports two independent measurement interval configurations, with corresponding frequency ranges of FR1 and 7-24GHz; or, FR1 and FR2.

[0160] Specifically, the number of independent measurement interval configurations supported, and the corresponding frequency range.

[0161] 1) For example: The terminal reports support three independent measurement interval configurations, with corresponding frequency ranges of FR1, FR2, and 7-24GHz.

[0162] 2) For example: The terminal reports support two independent measurement interval configurations, with corresponding frequency ranges of FR1, 7-24GHz and FR1, FR2 respectively.

[0163] D. The number of independent measurement interval configurations supported and the corresponding frequencies reported are as follows: 3 independent measurement interval configurations are reported, with corresponding frequencies of 24GHz and 71GHz, respectively. This indicates that each of the three frequency bands, below 24GHz, 24-71GHz, and above 71GHz, is configured with one independent measurement interval configuration.

[0164] Specifically, the number of independent measurement interval configurations supported, and the corresponding frequencies.

[0165] For example: The terminal reports support three independent measurement interval configurations, corresponding to frequencies of 24GHz and 71GHz. This means that below 24GHz, 24-71GHz, and above 71GHz, each of these three frequency bands can be configured with one independent measurement interval.

[0166] E. Report the number of independent measurement interval configurations supported, and the corresponding frequency bands, wherein each independent measurement interval configuration corresponds to one or more frequency bands, or to one or more frequency band groups.

[0167] The reporting system supports three independent measurement interval configurations, as well as one or more frequency bands corresponding to the independent measurement intervals supported by the reporting terminal.

[0168] Specifically, the number of independent measurement interval configurations supported, and the corresponding frequency bands.

[0169] For example, the terminal reports that it supports three independent measurement interval configurations, and at the same time reports one or more frequency bands corresponding to the independent measurement intervals supported by the terminal.

[0170] F. Supports independent measurement interval configurations corresponding to the frequency range.

[0171] G. Supports independent measurement interval configurations corresponding to frequencies.

[0172] H. Supports independent measurement interval configurations for corresponding frequency bands.

[0173] 2. The network receives the capability information reported by the terminal and configures the measurement interval.

[0174] The network-side device receives capability information reported by the terminal, and configures a measurement interval for the terminal based on the capability information.

[0175] If no capability information is received from the terminal, then configure the terminal with a measurement interval applicable to all frequency ranges, frequencies, frequency bands, or combinations thereof.

[0176] In practice, the measurement interval includes one or a combination of the following parameters: interval offset, measurement interval length, measurement interval period, and measurement interval advance.

[0177] A. Based on the capability information reported by the terminal, the network configures an independent measurement interval for each frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band that can be independently configured for measurement intervals. The measurement interval includes interval offset, measurement interval length, measurement interval period, and measurement interval advance.

[0178] B. If the network does not receive the independent measurement interval configuration capability information reported by the terminal, the network configures a measurement interval applicable to all frequency ranges and / or frequencies and / or frequency bands for the terminal. The measurement interval includes interval offset, measurement interval length, measurement interval period, and measurement interval advance.

[0179] In practice, it may further include:

[0180] If an independent measurement interval is configured based on one or more of the following frequency ranges, frequencies, frequency bands, or combinations thereof, then a measurement interval is not required in one or more of the following cases:

[0181] The frequency range, frequency, frequency band, or combination thereof of the serving cell and the frequency range, frequency, frequency band, or combination thereof of the measurement target can be configured independently, and the measurement interval can be configured independently.

[0182] If an independent measurement interval is configured based on one or more of the following: frequency range, frequency, frequency band, or a combination thereof, then a measurement interval is required in one or more of the following cases:

[0183] The frequency range, frequency, frequency band, or combination thereof of the serving cell and the frequency range, frequency, frequency band, or combination thereof of the measurement target are not supported for independent configuration of the measurement interval.

[0184] In specific implementation, when no measurement interval is required, if the terminal supports configuring independent measurement intervals for the three frequency ranges below 24GHz, 24-71GHz, and above 71GHz, and the serving cell is 12GHz, and the measurement target is 50GHz, then no measurement interval is required for the measurement.

[0185] In practice, when a measurement interval is required, if the terminal supports configuring independent measurement intervals for three frequency ranges: below 24GHz, 24-71GHz, and above 71GHz, and the serving cell is 12GHz while the measurement target is 20GHz, then a measurement interval is required for the measurement.

[0186] Specifically, if the network is configured with independent measurement intervals based on frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band, then measurement intervals are not required in one or more of the following cases:

[0187] The frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band of the serving cell and the frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band of the measurement target are compatible, and independent configuration of the measurement interval is supported.

[0188] For example, if the terminal supports three frequency ranges below 24GHz, 24-71GHz, and above 71GHz, and can be configured with independent measurement intervals, and the serving cell is 12GHz while the measurement target is 50GHz, then no measurement interval is required for this measurement.

[0189] If the network is configured with independent measurement intervals based on frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band, measurement intervals are required in one or more of the following cases:

[0190] The frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band of the serving cell and the frequency range and / or frequency and / or frequency band of the measurement target do not support independent configuration of the measurement interval.

[0191] For example, if the terminal supports three frequency ranges below 24GHz, 24-71GHz, and above 71GHz, and can be configured with independent measurement intervals, and the serving cell is 12GHz while the measurement target is 20GHz, then measurement intervals are required.
