[0012] Certain terms are used throughout the following description and claims to refer to specific system components. As those skilled in the art will understand, electronics manufacturers may use different names to refer to a component. This document is not intended to distinguish between components with different names but different functions. In the discussion below and the claims, the terms “comprising” and “including” are used in an open-ended manner and should therefore be interpreted as “including, but not limited to…”. The terms “coupled” and “coupled” are intended to indicate indirect or direct electrical connections. Thus, if one device is coupled to another device, the connection can be a direct electrical connection or an indirect electrical connection via other devices and connections.

[0013] Figure 1This is an exemplary block diagram of a communication device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The communication device 100 may be a portable electronic device, such as a mobile station (MS), which may be interchangeably referred to as user equipment (UE). The communication device 100 may include a radio transceiver 110, a processing device 120, an application processing device 130, a user identification card 140, a memory device 150, and at least one antenna 160. The radio transceiver 110 may be configured to transmit and / or receive wireless signals from a network device (not shown) via the antenna 160, thereby communicating with the network device via a communication link established between the communication device 100 and the network device. The radio transceiver 110 may include a receiver 112 configured to receive wireless signals and a transmitter 111 configured to transmit wireless signals. The radio transceiver 110 may also be configured to perform radio frequency (RF) signal processing. For example, receiver 112 can convert the received signal into an intermediate frequency (IF) or baseband signal for processing, or transmitter 111 can receive the IF or baseband signal from processing device 120 and convert the received signal into a wireless signal for transmission to a wireless network or access network (e.g., terrestrial network (TN), non-terrestrial network (NTN), wireless local area network (WLAN), personal area network (PAN), or wireless local area network). According to embodiments of the present invention, the network device can be a cell, Node-B (NB), evolved Node-B (eNB), next-generation Node-B (gNB), base station, Mobility Management Entity (MME), or Mobility Management Function (AMF) device that communicates with communication device 100 via a communication link on the network side using wireless signals.

[0014] The transmitter 111 and receiver 112 of the radio transceiver 110 may include multiple hardware devices to perform RF conversion and RF signal processing. For example, the transmitter 111 and / or receiver 112 may include a power amplifier for amplifying the RF signal, a filter for filtering out unwanted portions of the RF signal, and / or a mixer for performing RF conversion. According to embodiments of the invention, the radio frequency may be, for example, a frequency of any specific band for a long-term evolution (LTE) system, a frequency of any specific band for 5G next-generation new radio (NR), a frequency of any specific band for a WiFi system, or a frequency of any specific band for a Bluetooth (BT) system, etc.

[0015] Processing device 120 can be configured to handle corresponding communication protocol operations and to process signals received from or to be transmitted to radio transceiver 110. Application processing device 130 is configured to run the operating system of communication device 100 and to run applications installed in communication device 100. Processing device 120 and application processing device 130 can be implemented by hardware (circuit), software, firmware (a combination of hardware and computer instructions and data residing on the hardware as read-only software), electronic systems, or combinations thereof. In embodiments of the invention, processing device 120 and application processing device 130 can be designed as discrete chips with buses or hardware interfaces coupled to each other, or they can be integrated into a combined chip (i.e., system on chip, SoC), and the invention is not limited thereto.

[0016] The subscriber identity card 140 can be a subscriber identity module (SIM), a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) SIM (USIM), a removable subscriber identity module (R-UIM), or a code division multiple access (CDMA) SIM (CSIM) card, etc. It typically includes subscriber account information, International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI), and a SIM application toolkit (SAT) command set, and can provide storage space for phonebook contacts. The storage device 150 can be coupled to the processing device 120 and the application processing device 130 and can store system data or user data.

[0017] It should be noted that, in order to clarify the concept of the present invention, Figure 1 A simplified block diagram is presented, showing only the components relevant to the present invention. For example, in some embodiments of the invention, the communication device 100 may further include components not shown in the diagram. Figure 1 The peripheral devices shown are illustrated. In another example, in some embodiments of the invention, the communication device 100 may further include a central controller coupled to the processing device 120 and the application processing device 130. Therefore, the invention should not be limited to... Figure 1 The content shown.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present invention, the communication device 100 can be transmitted via, for example... Figure 1 The single-card architecture shown supports multiple radio access technology (RAT) communications. It should be noted that, although... Figure 1 A single-card application is illustrated, but the invention is not limited thereto. For example, in some embodiments of the invention, the communication device 100 may include multiple subscriber identity cards (SIM cards) to support multi-RAT communication in single-standby or multi-standby mode. In multi-RAT communication applications, modems, radio transceivers, and / or antenna modules may be shared by the SIM cards and may have the capability to handle the operation of different RATs and process corresponding radio frequency, intermediate frequency, or baseband signals conforming to the respective communication protocols.

[0019] Furthermore, without departing from the scope and spirit of this invention, those skilled in the art can still make various transformations and modifications based on the above description to derive a communication device including multiple radio transceivers and / or multiple antenna modules for supporting multi-RAT wireless communication. Therefore, in some embodiments of this invention, the communication device 100 can be designed to support multi-SIM applications in single-standby or multi-standby mode by making some changes and modifications.

[0020] It should also be noted that the user identification card 140 can be a dedicated hardware card as described above, or, in some embodiments of the present invention, a virtual card such as a personal identifier, number, address, or one recorded in the internal storage of the corresponding modem and capable of identifying the communication device 100. Therefore, the present invention should not be limited to... Figure 1 The content shown.

[0021] It should also be noted that in some embodiments of the present invention, the communication device 100 may further support multiple IMSIs.

[0022] Figure 2 This is an exemplary block diagram of a processing device 220 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The processing device 220 may be... Figure 1 The processing device 120 shown. (e.g.) Figure 1 As shown, it may include at least a baseband processing device 221, a processing circuit 222, an internal memory device 223, and a network interface card 224. The baseband processing device 221, processing circuit 222, internal memory device 223, and network interface card 224 can be implemented through hardware (circuit), software, firmware, electronic systems, or a combination thereof. The baseband processing device 221 can receive IF or baseband signals from the radio transceiver 110 and perform IF or baseband signal processing. For example, the baseband processing device 221 can convert the IF or baseband signal into multiple digital signals and process the digital signals, and vice versa. The baseband processing device 221 may include multiple hardware circuits to perform signal processing, such as an analog-to-digital converter for ADC conversion, a digital-to-analog converter for DAC conversion, an amplifier for gain adjustment, a modulator for signal modulation, a demodulator for signal demodulation, an encoder for signal encoding, a decoder for signal decoding, and so on.

[0023] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the baseband processing device 221 may be designed to have the capability to process baseband signal processing operations for different RATs and to process corresponding IF or baseband signals conforming to the corresponding communication protocols, thereby supporting multi-RAT wireless communication. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the baseband processing device 221 may include a plurality of sub-units, each sub-unit being designed to have the capability to process baseband signal processing operations for one or more specific RATs and to process corresponding IF or baseband signals conforming to the corresponding communication protocols, thereby supporting multi-RAT wireless communication. Therefore, the present invention should not be limited to any particular implementation.

[0024] Processing circuitry 222 can control the operation of processing device 220. According to embodiments of the present invention, processing circuitry 222 can be a processor arranged to execute program code of processing device 220. For example, processing circuitry 222 can maintain and execute separate tasks, threads, and / or protocol stacks for different software modules. Protocol stacks can be implemented to handle the radio activities of a single RAT. However, more than one protocol stack can be implemented to handle the radio activities of a single RAT simultaneously, or only one protocol stack can be implemented to handle the radio activities of more than one RAT simultaneously, and the invention is not limited thereto.

[0025] In some embodiments of the invention, the processing circuit 222 may be pure hardware dedicated to processing the proposed method for processing measurement configurations. Such alternative designs also fall within the scope of the invention.

[0026] Processing circuit 222 can also access user identification cards (e.g., connected to the processing device) Figure 1The processing circuitry 222 reads data from the user identification card 140 and writes the data to the user identification card. The internal memory device 223 can store system data and user data for the processing device 220. The processing circuitry 222 can also access the internal memory device 223.

[0027] Network interface card 224 provides internet access service to communication device 100. It should be noted that, although... Figure 2 The network interface card 224 shown is configured inside the communication device 100, but the invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments of the invention, the communication device 100 may further include a network interface card configured outside the processing device, or the communication device 100 may be coupled to an external network interface card to provide Internet access services. In some embodiments of the invention, the network interface card 224 may be a virtual network interface card created by the operating system of the communication device 100, rather than a physical card. Therefore, the invention is not limited to any specific implementation method.

[0028] It should be noted that, in order to clarify the concept of the present invention, Figure 2 The simplified block diagram presented only shows components relevant to this invention. Therefore, this invention should not be limited to... Figure 2 The content shown.

[0029] It should also be noted that in some embodiments of the present invention, the processing device 220 may also include more than one processing circuit and / or more than one baseband processing device. For example, the processing device 220 may include multiple processing circuits and / or multiple baseband processing devices to support multiple RAT operations. Therefore, the present invention should not be limited to... Figure 2 The content shown.

[0030] It should be further noted that, in some embodiments of the present invention, the baseband processing device 221 and the processing circuit 222 may be integrated into a single processing unit, and the processing device may include one or more such processing units to support multiple RAT operations. Therefore, the present invention should not be limited to... Figure 2 The content shown.

[0031] According to embodiments of the present invention, processing circuitry 222 and application processing device 130 may include multiple logics designed to process one or more functions. The logic may be configured to execute program code of one or more software and / or firmware modules to perform corresponding operations. When performing corresponding operations by executing corresponding programs, the logic may be considered as dedicated hardware devices or circuitry, such as dedicated processor subunits. Typically, processing circuitry 222 may be configured to perform operations at relatively low protocol layers, while application processing device 130 may be configured to perform operations at relatively high protocol layers. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present invention, application processing device 130 may be considered as an upper-layer entity or upper-layer processing circuitry relative to processing circuitry 222, while processing circuitry 222 may be considered as a lower-layer entity or lower-layer processing circuitry relative to application processing device 130.

[0032] Figure 3 It is a first communication device (e.g., according to an embodiment of the present invention) Figure 1 The flowchart shows the process 30 for processing the measurement configuration in the communication device 100 shown. If the results are essentially the same, it is not necessary to follow... Figure 3 These steps are performed in the exact order shown. Process 30 includes the following steps:

[0033] Step S300: Begin.

[0034] Step S302: Determine a first measurement configuration, wherein the first measurement configuration includes a first measurement object and multiple first report configurations.

[0035] Step S304: Perform at least one first measurement on the first measurement object to generate at least one first measurement result.

[0036] Step S306: Send at least one first measurement result to the network device in response to satisfying the first report configuration, according to the first report configuration among a plurality of first report configurations.

[0037] Step S308: End.

[0038] Processing circuit 222 is configured to execute the steps of flow 30. According to flow 30, the first communication device determines (e.g., sets or configures) a first measurement configuration. The first measurement configuration includes a first measurement object and a plurality of first report configurations. The plurality of first report configurations correspond to (e.g., are linked to) the first measurement object. The first communication device then performs at least one first measurement on the first measurement object to generate at least one first measurement result. The first communication device sends at least one first measurement result (e.g., a report) to the network device in response to satisfying the first report configuration, based on a first report configuration among the plurality of first report configurations. Therefore, multiple first report configurations can be flexibly applied, thereby improving the performance of performing at least one first measurement and sending at least one first measurement result.

[0039] The implementation of process 30 is not limited to the above description. The following embodiments of the present invention can be applied to implement process 30.

[0040] There are multiple ways to determine the first measurement configuration. In embodiments of the invention, the first communication device may receive the first measurement configuration from a network device. That is, the first communication device is configured with the first measurement configuration by the network device. In this case, the first measurement configuration, which includes multiple reporting configurations, is configured by the network device. Each of the multiple reporting configurations is configured for at least one specific communication device under specific conditions. In embodiments of the invention, the first communication device may set the first measurement configuration according to a design algorithm. That is, the first communication device configures the first measurement configuration itself.

[0041] In an embodiment of the invention, a second communication device determines a second measurement configuration. The second measurement configuration includes a second measurement object and a plurality of second reporting configurations. The plurality of second reporting configurations correspond to (e.g., are linked to) the second measurement object. The second communication device then performs at least one second measurement on the second measurement object to generate at least one second measurement result. The second communication device sends at least one second measurement result to a network device in response to a second reporting configuration being satisfied, based on a second reporting configuration among the plurality of second reporting configurations. That is, under different conditions (e.g., in different environments), the first and second communication devices can perform measurements and send measurement results according to different reporting configurations with different parameters. It should be noted that in this embodiment, there are two communication devices (e.g., a first communication device and a second communication device), but this is not a limitation. The number of communication devices can be two or more.

[0042] As an example, but not limited to, each of the first and second communication devices can use Figure 1 The hardware implementation of the hardware structure of the communication device 100 shown, and the same process 30 can also be used in the second communication device.

[0043] There are multiple ways to determine a second measurement configuration among multiple measurement configurations. In an embodiment of the invention, the second communication device may receive the second measurement configuration from a network device. In this case, the first and second measurement configurations are the same measurement configuration. That is, the network device configures the same measurement configuration to all communication devices. In another embodiment of the invention, the second communication device may set the second measurement configuration according to a design algorithm. In this case, the first and second measurement configurations may be the same measurement configuration or different measurement configurations. Details of determining the second measurement configuration can be found in the embodiments described above for determining the first measurement configuration, and will not be repeated here for brevity.

[0044] In embodiments of the invention, the plurality of first report configurations each include a plurality of first durations (e.g., time-to-trigger (TTT)) and a plurality of first measurement thresholds. The duration (e.g., one of the plurality of first durations) ensures that the ping-pong effect can be eliminated by specifying a time window in which the entry conditions of the measurement event occur, thereby enabling the measurement results to be sent to the network device. The measurement threshold (e.g., one of the plurality of first measurement thresholds) is a threshold parameter for the measurement event. In embodiments of the invention, the plurality of first durations have (e.g., are) different values. In embodiments of the invention, the plurality of first measurement thresholds have (e.g., are) different values.

[0045] In embodiments of the present invention, one of the plurality of first reporting configurations includes a duration having a maximum value among a plurality of first durations, and a measurement threshold having a minimum value among a plurality of first measurement thresholds. In embodiments of the present invention, one of the plurality of first reporting configurations includes a duration having a minimum value among a plurality of first durations, and a measurement threshold having a maximum value among a plurality of first measurement thresholds. In embodiments of the present invention, one of the plurality of first reporting configurations includes a duration having a second maximum value among a plurality of first durations, and a measurement threshold having a second minimum value among a plurality of first measurement thresholds. The relationship between the duration and the measurement threshold in one of the plurality of first reporting configurations is analogous and will not be elaborated further here for simplicity.

[0046] In embodiments of the invention, the plurality of first report configurations each include a plurality of first measurement hystereses. A measurement hysterese (e.g., one of the plurality of first measurement hystereses) is a hysteresis parameter for a measurement event.

[0047] In embodiments of the present invention, the multiple second reporting configurations respectively include multiple second durations (e.g., TTT) and multiple second measurement thresholds. In embodiments of the present invention, the multiple second reporting configurations respectively include multiple second measurement hysteresis. The multiple second durations, multiple second measurement thresholds, multiple second measurement hysteresis in the multiple second reporting configurations, and the relationship between the duration and the measurement threshold may refer to the embodiments of the relationship between the duration and the measurement threshold in one of the above-mentioned multiple first durations, multiple first measurement thresholds, multiple first measurement hysteresis, and multiple first reporting configurations. For the sake of brevity, they will not be elaborated here.

[0048] In embodiments of the present invention, the entry condition and the exit condition of the measurement event are predefined, e.g., through 3GPP standards. The measurement event may be one of measurement events A1 - A6 and B1 - B2, but is not limited thereto. Taking the measurement event A1 as an example, the entry condition is Ms - Hys > Thresh, and the exit condition is Ms + Hys < Thresh. Ms is the measurement result of the serving cell without considering any offset. Hys is the measurement hysteresis of the measurement event A1 (e.g., one of the multiple first measurement hysteresis or one of the multiple second measurement hysteresis). Thresh is the measurement threshold of the measurement event A1 (e.g., one of the multiple first measurement thresholds or one of the multiple second measurement thresholds).

[0049] In embodiments of the present invention, satisfying the first reporting configuration (in step S306) means (e.g., indicates) that the entry condition applied according to the hysteresis and measurement threshold in the first reporting configuration is satisfied and the exit condition applied according to the hysteresis and measurement threshold in the first reporting configuration is not satisfied. In embodiments of the present invention, satisfying the second reporting configuration means that the entry condition applied according to the hysteresis and measurement threshold in the second reporting configuration is satisfied and the exit condition applied according to the hysteresis and measurement threshold in the second reporting configuration is not satisfied. That is to say, the first / second communication device determines that the first / second reporting configuration is satisfied in response to the entry condition being satisfied and the exit condition not being satisfied.

[0050] In embodiments of the present invention, the measurement object (e.g., the first measurement object or the second measurement object) indicates (e.g., specifies) the synchronization signal block (SSB) or the channel state information reference signal (CSI - RS) to be measured, and further includes (e.g., specifies) the relevant auxiliary information for measurement. The first measurement object and the second measurement object may be the same measurement object or different measurement objects.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first measurement configuration includes a plurality of first measurement identifiers, and the second measurement configuration includes a plurality of second measurement identifiers. In an embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of first measurement identifiers respectively indicate that a plurality of first reporting configurations correspond to a first measurement object. In an embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of second measurement identifiers respectively indicate that a plurality of second reporting configurations correspond to a second measurement object. That is to say, one reporting configuration may correspond to one measurement object, and one measurement object may correspond to one or more reporting configurations.

[0052] Figure 4 FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of Scenario 40 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, there is a next-generation Node B (gNB) 400 (for example, the network device in Process 30). The coverage area 402 of the gNB 400 is divided into areas AR1-AR3. The gNB 400 configures reporting configurations RpConfig1-RpConfig3 for communication devices CA1-CA3. The reporting configurations RpConfig1-RpConfig3 correspond to the same measurement object, and respectively include durations TTT1-TTT3 (for example, TTT1 < TTT2 < TTT3) and measurement thresholds Thresh1-Thresh3 (for example, Thresh1 > Thresh2 > Thresh3).

[0053] In Figure 4 , the communication device CA1 in the area AR1 with a higher measurement result applies the reporting configuration RpConfig1 with a shorter duration TTT1 to send the higher measurement result to the gNB 400. The communication device CA2 in the area AR2 with a medium measurement result applies the reporting configuration RpConfig2 and waits for the medium duration TTT2 to send the medium measurement result to the gNB 400. The communication device CA3 in the area AR3 with a smaller measurement result applies the reporting configuration RpConfig3 and waits for the longer duration TTT3 to send a smaller measurement result to the gNB 400. The communication devices CA1-CA3 in different areas AR1-AR3 are configured with the same reporting configuration by the gNB 400, but apply different reporting configurations to ensure stable connection quality. The performance of performing measurements and sending measurement results can be improved.

[0054] In other embodiments of the present invention, the communication devices CA1-CA3 set the reporting configurations RpConfig1-RpConfig3 by themselves instead of receiving the reporting configurations RpConfig1-RpConfig3 from the gNB 400 that configures the reporting configurations RpConfig1-RpConfig3 for the communication devices CA1-CA3.

[0055] In summary, this invention provides a communication apparatus and method for processing measurement configurations. The communication apparatus performs measurements and transmits measurement results based on reporting configurations with different parameters under different conditions. Therefore, a communication apparatus with a suitable reporting configuration can improve the performance of performing measurements and transmitting measurement results.

[0056] Those skilled in the art will readily observe that many modifications and variations can be made to the apparatus and method while retaining the teachings of the invention. Therefore, the above invention should be construed as being limited only by the scope and limitations of the appended claims.
