[0087] To better understand the wireless resource management measurement method disclosed in this disclosure, the communication system to which this disclosure is applicable is first described below.

[0088] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a communication system provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. The communication system may include, but is not limited to, a network device and a terminal device. Figure 1 The number and form of devices shown are for illustrative purposes only and do not constitute a limitation on the embodiments of this disclosure. In actual applications, two or more network devices and two or more terminal devices may be included. Figure 1 The communication system shown is an example including a network device 11 and a terminal device 12.

[0089] It should be noted that the technical solutions of this disclosure can be applied to various communication systems. For example, Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems, 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication systems, 5G New Radio (NR) systems, or other future new mobile communication systems.

[0090] The network device 11 in this embodiment is a network-side entity used for transmitting or receiving signals. For example, the network device 11 can be an evolved NodeB (eNB), a transmission reception point (TRP), a next-generation NodeB (gNB) in an NR system, a base station in other future mobile communication systems, or an access node in a wireless fidelity (WiFi) system. This disclosure does not limit the specific technology or device form used in the network device. The network device provided in this disclosure can be composed of a central unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU). The CU can also be called a control unit. Using a CU-DU structure allows the protocol layer of a network device, such as a base station, to be separated. Some protocol layer functions are centrally controlled by the CU, while the remaining or all protocol layer functions are distributed in the DU, which is centrally controlled by the CU.

[0091] The terminal device 12 in this disclosure is a user-side entity used to receive or transmit signals, such as a mobile phone. The terminal device can also be referred to as a terminal, user equipment (UE), mobile station (MS), mobile terminal (MT), etc. The terminal device can be a car with communication capabilities, a smart car, a mobile phone, a wearable device, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver capabilities, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in self-driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical surgery, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, a wireless terminal device in a smart home, etc. The embodiments of this disclosure do not limit the specific technology or device form used in the terminal device.

[0092] It is understood that the communication system described in the embodiments of this disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this disclosure. As those skilled in the art will know, with the evolution of system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this disclosure are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0093] The wireless resource management measurement method and apparatus provided in this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0094] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a wireless resource management measurement method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, which is executed by a terminal device. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include, but is not limited to, the following steps:

[0095] Step 21: Based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters, determine the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device.

[0096] Optionally, the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters may include at least one of the following:

[0097] Mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM low mobility criterion;

[0098] The mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM stationary criterion; and,

[0099] Mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM non-cell edge criterion.

[0100] It is understood that each terminal device may have corresponding RRM low mobility criterion measurement parameters, RRM stationary criterion measurement parameters, and RRM non-cell edge criterion measurement parameters. These parameters may be the same or different. Furthermore, terminal devices with different numbers of antennas may have the same or different RRM measurement parameters; this disclosure does not impose any limitations on this.

[0101] Step 22: Perform RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameters.

[0102] It should be noted that the number of receiving antennas in a terminal device leads to deviations in the measured signal strength. For example, compared to a terminal device with two antennas located at the same location within a cell and moving at the same speed, a terminal device with one antenna will often have a higher measured signal strength. Furthermore, terminal devices with different numbers of antennas exhibit varying susceptibility to environmental interference; those with two antennas are less affected by interference and exhibit more stable signal fluctuations. Therefore, if a single set of measurement parameters is used for RRM measurements on terminal devices with different numbers of antennas, inaccurate radio resource management may occur, impacting the terminal's battery life. Thus, this disclosure determines different RRM measurement parameters for terminal devices with different numbers of antennas, and then performs RRM measurements based on these determined parameters, thereby reducing the terminal's power consumption while reliably supporting its mobility.

[0103] Optionally, after determining the first RRM measurement parameters, the terminal device can determine its state based on these parameters. For example, it could be in a low mobility state, a stationary state, or a non-cell edge state. After determining the terminal device's state, the RRM measurement cycle and measurement range can be updated. For instance, the RRM measurement cycle can be extended or measurements of neighboring cells can be stopped to save power consumption.

[0104] It should be noted that for terminal devices with the same number of antennas but different states, the updated RRM measurement cycle can be the same or different. Alternatively, for terminal devices with the same number of antennas but different states, the updated measurement range can be the same or different. This disclosure does not impose any limitations on this.

[0105] Optionally, the terminal device may determine the measurement cycle and measurement range of the RRM corresponding to different states according to the protocol agreement or the instructions of the network device.

[0106] By implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, the terminal device determines a first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters. Then, RRM measurement is performed based on the first RRM measurement parameter. Therefore, by performing RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of antennas, the terminal device not only ensures the accuracy and reliability of its antenna resource management but also saves power consumption and improves its battery life.

[0107] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a wireless resource management measurement method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, which is executed by a terminal device. Figure 3 As shown, the method may include, but is not limited to, the following steps:

[0108] Step 31: Determine the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM measurement parameters based on the received instruction message.

[0109] Optionally, the instruction information may include at least one of the following:

[0110] Mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM low mobility criterion;

[0111] The mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM stationary criterion; and,

[0112] Mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM non-cell edge criterion.

[0113] Step 32: Based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters, determine the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device.

[0114] Optionally, in response to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device being a first number, the RRM low mobility criterion measurement parameter is determined as a first threshold value.

[0115] Alternatively, in response to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device being a second number, the RRM low mobility criterion measurement parameter is determined as a second threshold value.

[0116] Among them, the first quantity is different from the second quantity, and the first threshold value is different from or the same as the second threshold value.

[0117] For example, the first quantity can be 1, and the second quantity can be 2.

[0118] Optionally, the first threshold and the second threshold can be measurement duration thresholds;

[0119] Alternatively, the first and second threshold values ​​can also be threshold values ​​for the signal strength difference.

[0120] Alternatively, the first and second thresholds can be the measurement duration threshold and the signal strength difference threshold.

[0121] Among them, the signal strength difference threshold is used to indicate the threshold value of the difference between the reference received signal strength and the signal strength of the serving cell at the current time measured by the terminal device within a time period exceeding the measurement duration threshold.

[0122] Optionally, in the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM low mobility criterion, the first number is 1 and the second number is 2. Since the terminal equipment with a single antenna has weak anti-interference capability, under the same measurement duration threshold, the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the first number can be greater than the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the second number.

[0123] Alternatively, the first quantity is 1, the second quantity is 2, and the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the first quantity can be less than the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the second quantity.

[0124] Alternatively, the first quantity is 1, the second quantity is 2, and the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the first quantity can be equal to the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the second quantity. This disclosure does not limit this.

[0125] Optionally, in response to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device being a first number, the RRM stationary criterion measurement parameter is determined as a third threshold value.

[0126] Alternatively, in response to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device being a second number, the RRM stationary criterion measurement parameter is determined as a fourth threshold value.

[0127] Optionally, the third and fourth threshold values ​​can be measurement duration threshold values;

[0128] Alternatively, the third and fourth thresholds can also be thresholds for the signal strength difference.

[0129] Alternatively, the third and fourth thresholds can be the measurement duration threshold and the signal strength difference threshold.

[0130] Optionally, in response to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device being a first number, the RRM non-cell edge criterion measurement parameter is determined to be a fifth threshold value.

[0131] Alternatively, in response to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device being a second number, the RRM non-cell edge criterion measurement parameter is determined to be a sixth threshold value.

[0132] Among them, the first quantity is different from the second quantity, and the fifth threshold value is different from or the same as the sixth threshold value.

[0133] Optionally, the fifth and sixth threshold values ​​can be signal strength threshold values;

[0134] Alternatively, the fifth and sixth thresholds can also be signal quality thresholds;

[0135] Alternatively, the fifth and sixth thresholds can be signal strength thresholds and signal quality thresholds.

[0136] The signal quality threshold is a threshold value for the quality of the signal received by the terminal device. The signal strength threshold is a threshold value for the signal strength received by the terminal device. In other words, when the signal quality received by the terminal device is greater than the signal quality threshold, and the received signal strength is greater than the signal strength threshold, the terminal device is in a non-cell edge state.

[0137] Step 33: Perform RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameters.

[0138] The specific implementation of step 33 can be found in the detailed descriptions of other embodiments in this disclosure, and will not be repeated here.

[0139] By implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, the terminal device first determines the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM measurement parameters based on the received instruction message. Then, based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters, it determines a first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device. Finally, based on the first RRM measurement parameter, it performs RRM measurement. Therefore, by performing RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to its number of antennas, the terminal device not only ensures the accuracy and reliability of its antenna resource management but also saves power consumption and improves its battery life.

[0140] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating a wireless resource management measurement method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, which is executed by a terminal device. Figure 4 As shown, the method may include, but is not limited to, the following steps:

[0141] Step 41: Determine the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM measurement parameters according to the agreement.

[0142] Step 42: Based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters, determine the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device.

[0143] The specific implementation of step 42 can be found in the detailed descriptions of other embodiments in this disclosure, and will not be repeated here.

[0144] Step 43: When the terminal device is in the radio resource control (RRC) idle state or the RRC inactive state, perform RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameters.

[0145] It is understandable that RRM measurements can be performed based on the first RRM measurement parameters even when the terminal device is in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state. This further saves power consumption of the terminal device and improves its battery life.

[0146] By implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, the terminal device first determines the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM measurement parameters according to the protocol. Then, based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement parameters, it determines the first RRM measurement parameters corresponding to the number of receiving antennas in the terminal device. Finally, when the terminal device is in an RRC idle state or an RRC inactive state, it performs RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameters. Therefore, by performing RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameters corresponding to its number of antennas, the terminal device not only ensures the accuracy and reliability of its antenna resource management but also saves power consumption and improves its battery life.

[0147] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating a wireless resource management measurement method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, which is executed by a network device. Figure 5 As shown, the method may include, but is not limited to, the following steps:

[0148] Step 51: Send indication information, wherein the indication information is used to indicate the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters.

[0151] The mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM stationary criterion; and,

[0152] Mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM non-cell edge criterion.

[0153] It is understood that each terminal device may have corresponding RRM low mobility criterion measurement parameters, RRM stationary criterion measurement parameters, and RRM non-cell edge criterion measurement parameters. These parameters may be the same or different. Furthermore, terminal devices with different numbers of antennas may have the same or different RRM measurement parameters; this disclosure does not impose any limitations on this.

[0154] Optionally, the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM low mobility criterion may include: a first threshold value corresponding to a first number of antennas, and a second threshold value corresponding to a second number of antennas.

[0155] Among them, the first quantity is different from the second quantity, and the first threshold value is different from or the same as the second threshold value.

[0156] Optionally, the first threshold and the second threshold can be measurement duration thresholds;

[0157] Alternatively, the first and second threshold values ​​can also be threshold values ​​for the signal strength difference.

[0158] Alternatively, the first and second thresholds can be the measurement duration threshold and the signal strength difference threshold.

[0159] Among them, the signal strength difference threshold is used to indicate the threshold value of the difference between the reference received signal strength and the signal strength of the serving cell at the current time measured by the terminal device within a time period exceeding the measurement duration threshold.

[0160] Optionally, the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the measurement parameters of the RRM stationary criterion may include: a third threshold value corresponding to the first number of antennas, and a fourth threshold value corresponding to the second number of antennas.

[0161] Among them, the first quantity is different from the second quantity, and the third threshold value is different from or the same as the fourth threshold value.

[0162] Optionally, the third and fourth threshold values ​​can be measurement duration threshold values;
