[0062] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0063] Figure 1 is a schematic flow chart of a capability obtaining method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The capability obtaining method shown in the embodiment can be applied to a terminal, including but not limited to a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, a sensor, an Internet of Things device, and the like. The terminal can communicate with a base station as a user equipment, including but not limited to a 4G base station, a 5G base station, a 6G base station, and the like in a communication system.

[0064] In one embodiment, the base station can be a first base station to which the configuration sending method of any subsequent embodiment is applicable.

[0065] As shown in the embodiment, the capability obtaining method can include the following steps: Figure 1

[0066] In step S101, configuration information of a first base station is received. ​

[0067] In step S102, in response to being in the non-connected state, broadcast information of the second base station is received according to the configuration information;

[0068] In step S103, capability information of wireless charging of the second base station is determined according to the broadcast information.

[0069] It should be noted that the non-connected state in all embodiments of the present disclosure includes but is not limited to idle state and inactive state. The capability information can include not only specific charging capability but also an identifier of the second base station.

[0070] In one embodiment, the first base station can send configuration information to the terminal, and the configuration information contains configurations such as time domain resource, frequency domain resource, period, time length, etc. When the terminal is in the non-connected state, the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration information, for example, according to the configurations in the configuration information.

[0071] In one embodiment, the second base station is other base station(s) than the first base station, which can be one or more base stations, for example, base stations along the way during the terminal movement. When the terminal is in the signal coverage of the second base station, the terminal can receive the information broadcast by the second base station.

[0072] In one embodiment, the second base station can broadcast the capability information of wireless charging, so that the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station even in the non-connected state, and determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station obtained from the broadcast information.

[0073] In one embodiment, the second base station can not only broadcast the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station, but also communicate with the neighboring base station of the second base station, then obtain the capability information of wireless charging of the neighboring base station, and further broadcast the capability information of wireless charging of the neighboring base station in the broadcast information.

[0074] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal can obtain the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station according to the configuration of the first base station when in the non-connected state, so as to determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station.

[0075] So that when the terminal subsequently establishes connection with the third base station (which can be the first base station or other base station, for example, camps on the third base station or enters the connected state with the third base station), the obtained capability information can be sent to the third base station.

[0076] In one aspect, when a terminal accessing (camping or connecting) a third base station needs to be wirelessly charged, the third base station can select a base station with appropriate wireless charging capability for the terminal to be charged according to the capability information of the second base station, for example, instruct the terminal to switch to the second base station with corresponding wireless charging capability according to the wireless charging capability required by the terminal.

[0077] In another aspect, the third base station can further report the capability information to the core network and the network management system (also referred to as Operation Administration and Maintenance, OAM), so that the core network and the network management system can manage the wireless charging capability of the second base station.

[0078] For example, in the case of determining that the second base station does not support wireless charging capability according to the capability information, the second base station can be upgraded, including software upgrade and hardware upgrade, so that the second base station can support wireless charging; for example, in the case of determining the specific wireless charging parameters of the second base station according to the capability information, the wireless charging parameters of the second base station can be adjusted to be standardized.

[0079] In some embodiments, the capability information includes at least one of the following:

[0080] supporting wireless charging;

[0081] not supporting wireless charging;

[0082] wireless charging parameters.

[0083] In some embodiments, the wireless charging parameters include at least one of the following:

[0084] wireless charging power, wireless charging frequency, and wireless charging duration.

[0085] In one embodiment, the wireless charging power refers to the charging power supported by the base station when wirelessly charging the terminal. The wireless charging power can include one or more powers, i.e., the base station can charge the terminal at only one power, or can select a power suitable for the terminal from multiple supported charging powers according to the charging power required by the terminal.

[0086] In one embodiment, the wireless charging frequency refers to the charging frequency supported by the base station when wirelessly charging the terminal. The charging frequency can be the same as or different from the frequency used for communication between the base station and the terminal. The wireless charging frequency can include one or more frequencies, i.e., the base station can charge the terminal at only one frequency, or can select a frequency suitable for the terminal from multiple charging frequencies according to the frequency supported by the terminal.

[0087] In one embodiment, the wireless charging duration refers to the maximum duration that the base station can sustain to charge the terminal each time, and the base station can determine the duration according to its own load condition, for example, the load is inversely related to the duration, that is, the higher the load, the shorter the duration for charging the terminal, and the lower the load, the longer the duration for charging the terminal.

[0088] In one embodiment, the base station can also carry the specific wireless charging configuration in the capability information in the case of supporting wireless charging, and the terminal can determine the wireless charging configuration of the base station according to the capability information. Then, when receiving the radio frequency signal of the base station for charging in the subsequent process, the terminal can charge according to the determined wireless charging configuration, for example, the terminal can select the corresponding frequency to receive the radio frequency signal of the base station for charging according to the wireless charging frequency.

[0089] It should be noted that the wireless charging parameters include but are not limited to the three parameters of the above examples, and other parameters such as wireless charging interval can also be set as needed.

[0090] Figure 2 is a schematic flow chart of another capability acquisition method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2 In one embodiment, the configuration information is minimization of drive tests (MDT) configuration information, and the receiving of the broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration information includes:

[0091] In step S201, in the minimization of drive tests process, the broadcast information of the second base station is received according to the configuration information.

[0092] In one embodiment, the base station can indicate the configuration of the terminal to receive the broadcast information of the second base station through the minimization of drive tests configuration information, and the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration in the minimization of drive tests process.

[0093] That is, in the minimization of drive tests process, the terminal can not only measure the second base station, for example, measure the signal quality of the second base station, but also acquire the capability information of the second base station. Therefore, after the completion of the minimization of drive tests, the terminal can not only acquire the measurement results of the base stations along the way, but also acquire the capability information of the base stations along the way to solve the multi-card problem, thereby expanding the function of the terminal in the non-connected state.

[0094] In one embodiment, the minimization of drive tests can include two types, one is logged minimization of drive tests (Logged MDT), and the other is immediate minimization of drive tests (Immediate MDT), and the following will be exemplarily described mainly for the logged minimization of drive tests.

[0095] In one embodiment, the configuration information can be carried in

[0096] LoggedMeasurementConfiguration signaling used to indicate the configuration of minimization of drive test. For example, it can be as follows:

[0097]

[0098] The configuration information can be indicated by the information element WirelessChargingList-r18 in the signaling. After receiving the signaling, the terminal can obtain the information element WirelessChargingList-r18, and further determine the configuration of receiving the broadcast information of the second base station according to the information element WirelessChargingList-r18.

[0099] Figure 3 is a schematic flow chart of another capability obtaining method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 3 In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0100] In step S301, in response to the capability information including support of wireless charging, the capability information is saved (also referred to as recorded).

[0101] In one embodiment, the capability information of the second base station can be mainly divided into support of wireless charging and non-support of wireless charging. When the second base station does not support wireless charging, even if the capability information is saved, it is difficult to be used by other base stations subsequently, and therefore, the capability information of the second base station can not be saved, and only when the second base station supports wireless charging, the capability information of the second base station is saved, which is beneficial to avoid waste of storage space.

[0102] It should be noted that, the capability information can also be saved only when the capability information includes non-support of wireless charging, because if the core network or the network management system configures the second base station to support wireless charging according to the capability information, the second base station supporting wireless charging does not need to be further configured, and therefore, the capability information does not need to be saved.

[0103] The capability information of the second base station supporting wireless charging, or the capability information of the second base station not supporting wireless charging, or the capability information of all second base stations can be saved according to actual conditions. For example, the configuration information can be determined, or the protocol can be agreed, or the non-access stratum information can be determined.

[0104] Figure 4 is a schematic flow chart of another capability obtaining method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 4 In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0105] In step S401, target capability information is acquired from the configuration information.

[0106] In step S402, in response to the capability information matching the target capability information, the capability information is saved.

[0107] In one embodiment, the first base station can indicate the target capability information to the terminal through the configuration information, so that the terminal can save the capability information only when the capability information of the second base station matches the target capability information, thereby improving the control capability of the first base station on the terminal to save the capability information.

[0108] The target capability information can be support of wireless charging capability, or no support of wireless charging capability, or specific wireless charging parameters.

[0109] In one embodiment, the wireless charging parameters in the target capability information can be wireless charging parameters not supported by the first base station. The first base station can determine the wireless charging parameters supported by itself, and send the wireless charging parameters to the terminal in the configuration information, and instruct the terminal to save the capability information only when the received capability information is different from the wireless charging parameters in the configuration information.

[0110] Figure 5 is a schematic flow chart of another capability acquisition method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 5 In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0111] In step S501, in response to the terminal establishing a connection with the third base station, the capability information is sent to the third base station.

[0112] In one embodiment, the terminal can send the capability information of the second base station to solve the multi-card problem to the third base station after establishing a connection with the third base station, so that the third base station can determine the capability of the second base station to solve the multi-card problem, which is conducive to the third base station and the second base station cooperating to more effectively solve the multi-card problem for the terminal.

[0113] Figure 6 is a schematic flow chart of another capability acquisition method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 6 In one embodiment, the sending of the capability information to the third base station includes:

[0114] In step S601, first indication information is sent to the third base station, for indicating that the capability information is saved in the terminal.

[0115] In step S602, in response to receiving second indication information sent by the third base station, the capability information is sent to the third base station.

[0116] In an embodiment, the capability information is sent to the third base station in response to receiving second indication information sent by the third base station, in a case that the second base station supports wireless charging.

[0117] In an embodiment, first indication information is sent to the third base station in a case that the second base station supports wireless charging, i.e., the terminal sends the first indication information to the third base station only in a case that the second base station supports wireless charging, and does not send the first indication information to the third base station in a case that the second base station does not support wireless charging.

[0118] In an embodiment, the terminal sends the first indication information to the third base station in a process of establishing a connection with the third base station, or after establishing the connection with the third base station, to inform the third base station that the capability information of the second base station is stored in the terminal.

[0119] For example, the terminal sends the first indication information to the third base station in a process of establishing a connection with the third base station, and for a 4G network, the first indication information can be carried in at least one of the following radio resource control (RRC) signaling:

[0120] RRC connection setup complete signaling (RRCConnectionSetupComplete);

[0121] RRC connection reconfiguration complete signaling (RRCConnectionReconfigurationComplete);

[0122] RRC connection reestablishment complete signaling (RRCConnectionReestablishmentComplete);

[0123] RRC connection resume complete signaling (RRCConnectionResumeComplete).

[0124] For a 5G network, the first indication information can be carried in at least one of the following radio resource control signaling:

[0125] RRC setup complete signaling (RRCSetupComplete);

[0126] RRC reconfiguration complete signaling (RRCReconfigurationComplete);

[0127] RRC reestablishment complete signaling (RRCReestablishmentComplete);

[0128] RRC resume complete (RRCResumeComplete).

[0129] In one embodiment, after receiving the first indication information, the third base station can determine whether to acquire the capability information of the second base station saved in the terminal as needed. If it is determined that the capability information needs to be acquired, the second indication information can be sent to the terminal to instruct the terminal to send the saved capability information to the third base station. Further, after receiving the second indication information, the terminal can send the saved capability information to the third base station.

[0130] For example, the third base station can carry the second indication information in the UEInformationRequest, i.e., the user equipment information request signaling; correspondingly, the terminal can carry the capability information in the UEInformationResponse, i.e., the user equipment information response signaling.

[0131] Figure 7 is a schematic flow chart of a configuration sending method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The configuration sending method shown in the embodiment can be applicable to a first base station, which includes but is not limited to a 4G base station, a 5G base station, and a 6G base station. The first base station can communicate with a terminal as a user equipment, which includes but is not limited to a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, a sensor, an Internet of Things device, and the like.

[0132] In one embodiment, the terminal can be the terminal applicable to the capability acquisition method of any of the above embodiments.

[0133] As shown in Figure 7 The configuration sending method includes:

[0134] In step S701, configuration information is sent to the terminal, wherein the configuration information includes a configuration for the terminal to receive broadcast information of a second base station according to the configuration when in a non-connected state, and to determine capability information of wireless charging of the second base station according to the broadcast information.

[0135] In one embodiment, the first base station can send configuration information to the terminal, and the configuration information contains configurations such as time domain resources, frequency domain resources, periods, time lengths, etc. The terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration information when in a non-connected state, for example, according to the configurations in the configuration information.

[0136] In one embodiment, the second base station is other base station(s) in addition to the first base station, which can be one or more base stations, for example, base stations along the way during the movement of the terminal. When the terminal is in the signal coverage range of the second base station, the terminal can receive the information broadcast by the second base station.

[0137] In one embodiment, the second base station can broadcast the capability information of wireless charging, so that the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station even in the non-connected state, and determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station obtained from the broadcast information.

[0138] In one embodiment, the second base station can not only broadcast the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station, but also communicate with the neighboring base station of the second base station, and then obtain the capability information of wireless charging of the neighboring base station, and further broadcast the capability information of wireless charging of the neighboring base station in the broadcast information.

[0139] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal can obtain the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station in the non-connected state according to the configuration of the first base station, so as to determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station.

[0140] In order to send the obtained capability information to the third base station when the terminal subsequently establishes connection (such as camping on the third base station or entering the connected state with the third base station) with the third base station (which can be the first base station or other base station).

[0141] On the one hand, when the terminal accessing (camping or connecting) the third base station needs to be wirelessly charged, the third base station can select a base station with appropriate wireless charging capability for the terminal to charge according to the capability information of the second base station, for example, instruct the terminal to switch to the second base station with corresponding wireless charging capability according to the wireless charging capability required by the terminal.

[0142] On the other hand, the third base station can further report the capability information to the core network and the network management system (also referred to as the operation management system), so that the core network and the network management system manage the wireless charging capability of the second base station.

[0143] Taking the core network as an example, when it is determined according to the capability information that the second base station does not support the wireless charging capability, the second base station can be upgraded, including software upgrade and hardware upgrade, so that the second base station can support wireless charging; when it is determined according to the capability information that the second base station has specific wireless charging parameters, the wireless charging parameters of the second base station can be adjusted to be standardized.

[0144] In one embodiment, the configuration information is minimization of drive test configuration information, in which case the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration information in the minimization of drive test process.

[0145] In an embodiment, the base station can indicate the configuration of the terminal receiving the broadcast information of the second base station through the minimization drive test configuration information, and the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration in the minimization drive test process.

[0146] That is, in the minimization drive test process, the terminal can not only measure the second base station, for example, measure the signal quality of the second base station, but also obtain the capability information of the second base station. Therefore, after the completion of the minimization drive test, the terminal can not only obtain the measurement results of the base stations along the way, but also obtain the capability information of the base stations along the way to solve the multi-card problem, thereby expanding the functions of the terminal in the non-connected state.

[0147] In an embodiment, the minimization drive test can include two types, one is logged minimization drive test (Logged MDT), and the other is immediate minimization drive test (Immediate MDT). The following will be exemplarily described mainly for the logged minimization drive test.

[0148] In an embodiment, the configuration information can be carried in the LoggedMeasurementConfiguration signaling used to indicate the configuration of the minimization drive test. For example, it can be specifically as follows:

[0149]

[0150] The configuration information can be indicated by the information element WirelessChargingList-r18 in the signaling. After receiving the above signaling, the terminal can obtain the information element WirelessChargingList-r18, and then determine the configuration of receiving the broadcast information of the second base station according to the information element WirelessChargingList-r18.

[0151] In an embodiment, the configuration information further includes target capability information, which is used for the terminal to save the capability information when the capability information matches the target capability information.

[0152] In an embodiment, the first base station can indicate the target capability information to the terminal through the configuration information, so that the terminal can save the capability information only when the capability information of the second base station matches the target capability information, thereby improving the control ability of the first base station on the terminal to save the capability information.

[0153] The target capability information can be a wireless charging capability, or a wireless charging parameter.

[0154] In one embodiment, the wireless charging parameter in the target capability information can be a wireless charging parameter not supported by the first base station, the first base station can determine a wireless charging parameter supported by itself, and send the wireless charging parameter in the configuration information to the terminal, and instruct the terminal to save the capability information only when the wireless charging parameter in the received capability information is different from the wireless charging parameter in the configuration information.

[0155] In one embodiment, the capability information includes at least one of the following:

[0162] In step S801, the capability information is obtained from the terminal in response to establishing a connection with the terminal.

[0163] In one embodiment, the first base station can obtain the capability information from the terminal after establishing a connection with the terminal, for example, the terminal can automatically send the capability information of the second base station to solve the multi-card problem to the first base station, or the terminal can send the capability information of the second base station to solve the multi-card problem to the first base station after the first base station requests. Accordingly, the first base station can determine the capability of the second base station to solve the multi-card problem, which is beneficial to the first base station and the second base station to more effectively solve the multi-card problem for the terminal.

[0164] Figure 9 Another configuration of a sending method is shown in a schematic flowchart diagram according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 9 The capability information is obtained from the terminal includes:

[0165] In step S901, the first indication information sent by the terminal is received;

[0166] In step S902, it is determined according to the first indication information that the capability information is saved in the terminal;

[0167] In step S903, second indication information is sent to the terminal, for instructing the terminal to send the capability information to the first base station.

[0168] In an embodiment, the third base station can further determine whether the second base station supports wireless charging according to the first indication information, and send the second indication information to the terminal only when the second base station supports wireless charging, and can not send the second indication information to the terminal when it is determined that the second base station does not support wireless charging, so as to not obtain the specific capability information.

[0169] In an embodiment, the terminal can send the first indication information to the first base station to inform the first base station that the capability information of the second base station is stored in the terminal, in the process of establishing a connection with the first base station, or after establishing a connection with the first base station.

[0170] For example, the terminal sends the first indication information to the first base station in the process of connecting with the first base station. For 4G network, the first indication information can be carried in at least one of the following radio resource control signaling:

[0171] RRC connection setup complete signaling (RRCConnectionSetupComplete);

[0180] In one embodiment, after receiving the first indication information, the first base station can determine whether to acquire the capability information of the second base station saved in the terminal according to needs. If it is determined that the capability information needs to be acquired, the second indication information can be sent to the terminal to instruct the terminal to send the saved capability information to the first base station. Further, after receiving the second indication information, the terminal can send the saved capability information to the first base station.

[0181] For example, the first base station can carry the second indication information in UEInformationRequest, i.e., user equipment information request signaling; correspondingly, the terminal can carry the capability information in UEInformationResponse, i.e., user equipment information response signaling.

The capability receiving method shown in the embodiment can be applied to a core network and / or network management system, which can communicate with a base station including but not limited to a 4G base station, a 5G base station, and a 6G base station. The base station can communicate with a terminal as a user equipment, including but not limited to a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable device, a sensor, an Internet of Things device, and a communication device.

[0185] In one embodiment, the base station can be the first base station to which the configuration sending method of any of the above embodiments is applicable. The terminal can be the terminal to which the capability acquiring method of any of the above embodiments is applicable.

[0186] As shown in Figure 11 The capability receiving method can include:

[0187] In step S1101, the capability information of the wireless charging of the second base station sent by the third base station is received, wherein the capability information is obtained by a terminal from broadcast information of the second base station, and the terminal receives the broadcast information in a non-connected state based on configuration information sent by the first base station.

[0188] In an embodiment, the first base station can send configuration information to the terminal, the configuration information containing configurations, such as time domain resources, frequency domain resources, period, duration, etc., and the terminal can receive broadcast information of the second base station according to the configuration information, such as according to the configurations in the configuration information, when in the non-connected state.

[0189] In an embodiment, the second base station can be one or more base stations other than the first base station, such as a base station along the way during the terminal movement. When the terminal is in the signal coverage of the second base station, the terminal can receive the information broadcast by the second base station.

[0190] In an embodiment, the second base station can broadcast the capability information of wireless charging, so that the terminal can receive the broadcast information of the second base station even in the non-connected state, and determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station obtained from the broadcast information.

[0191] In an embodiment, the second base station can not only broadcast the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station, but also communicate with the neighboring base station of the second base station, then obtain the capability information of wireless charging of the neighboring base station, and further broadcast the capability information of wireless charging of the neighboring base station in the broadcast information.

[0192] In an embodiment, the terminal can obtain the capability information of wireless charging of the second base station according to the configurations of the first base station when in the non-connected state, so as to determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station. Then the capability information can be sent to the third base station, which can be the first base station or other base station, such as the terminal can send the obtained capability information to the third base station after camping on the third base station. Further, the third base station can send the received capability information to the core network or to the network management system, so that the core network and the network management system can manage the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information.

[0193] Taking the core network as an example, when it is determined according to the capability information that the second base station does not support wireless charging capability, the second base station can be upgraded, including software upgrade and hardware upgrade, so that the second base station can support wireless charging; when it is determined according to the capability information that the second base station has specific wireless charging parameters, the wireless charging parameters of the second base station can be adjusted to standardize them.

[0194] In an embodiment, the capability information includes at least one of the following:

[0195] Supporting wireless charging;

[0196] Not supporting wireless charging;

[0197] Wireless charging parameters.

[0198] In an embodiment, the wireless charging parameter comprises at least one of:

[0199] Wireless charging power, wireless charging frequency, wireless charging duration.

[0200] In an embodiment, the method further comprises:

[0201] Configuring wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information.

[0202] After receiving the capability information, the core network and the network management system can determine the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information, and then can configure the wireless charging capability of the second base station, for example, can adjust the wireless charging parameter of the second base station, so that the wireless charging capability of the second base station meets the needs.

[0203] The following two embodiments are exemplary to illustrate how to configure the wireless charging capability of the second base station, wherein the core network is described as the execution subject, and in actual operation, the network management system can also be used as the execution subject.

[0204] In an embodiment, the configuring the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information comprises:

[0205] In response to determining that the second base station does not support wireless charging according to the capability information, configuring the second base station to support wireless charging.

[0206] The core network can determine which second base stations support wireless charging and which second base stations do not support wireless charging according to the second capability information. For the second base station that does not support wireless charging, the core network can also determine the reason why the second base station does not support wireless charging according to the second capability information, such as software reason, hardware reason, etc. For the hardware reason, the core network can not be able to solve directly, and can generate a prompt information to inform manual solution, and for the software reason, the core network can solve directly, for example, upgrading the software of the second base station, so that the software of the second base station supports wireless charging.

[0207] In an embodiment, the capability information comprises a wireless charging parameter, and the configuring the wireless charging capability of the second base station according to the capability information comprises:

[0208] In response to the wireless charging parameter not matching the standard charging parameter, adjusting the wireless charging parameter so that the adjusted wireless charging parameter matches the standard charging parameter.

[0209] In the case that the capability information comprises a wireless charging parameter, the core network can determine the specific wireless charging parameter of the second base station according to the capability information of the second base station.

[0210] If different second base stations have different wireless charging parameters, the terminal needs to adjust its own wireless charging parameters to adapt to the wireless charging parameters of the second base station when it is in the coverage of different second base stations. For a terminal with limited capability, it may not be able to adjust its own wireless charging parameters to adapt to the wireless charging parameters of the second base station, resulting in the inability to perform wireless charging through the second base station. For a terminal capable of adjusting its own wireless charging parameters to adapt to the wireless charging parameters of the second base station, it also needs to adjust its own wireless charging parameters when it is in the coverage of different second base stations, causing unnecessary consumption of resources of the terminal.

[0211] According to the embodiment, the core network can save a standard charging parameter, which can be negotiated with multiple terminals and / or multiple base stations, or be specified by a protocol. Then, the core network can compare the wireless charging parameters of the second base stations with the standard charging parameter to determine whether they match, where the match indicates that the absolute value of the difference between the two parameters is less than or equal to a preset difference (which can be 0 or a value greater than 0).

[0212] For example, for the wireless charging parameter of wireless charging power, the standard charging parameter is 60W, and the preset difference is 5W. The core network determines that the wireless charging power of the second base station A is 59W and the wireless charging power of the second base station B is 54W according to the capability information. Then, it can be determined that the difference between the wireless charging power of the second base station A and the standard charging parameter is less than 5W, and the difference between the wireless charging power of the second base station B and the standard charging parameter is greater than 5W, that is, the wireless charging parameter of the second base station A matches the standard charging parameter, and the wireless charging parameter of the second base station B does not match the standard charging parameter. Then, the wireless charging parameter of the second base station B can be adjusted, for example, a second base station B is sent an instruction to adjust the wireless charging power to 60W.

[0213] Accordingly, all second base stations can perform wireless charging according to the standard charging parameter, and the wireless charging parameters of the terminal performing wireless charging are basically consistent when it is in the coverage of different second base stations, so that the terminal does not need to adjust its own wireless charging parameters, ensuring that the terminal can perform wireless charging, and avoiding the waste of resources caused by adjusting the wireless charging parameters.
