Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to, but is not limited to, the field of communication technology, and in particular to a multi-carrier configuration method, apparatus, communication device, and storage medium for a UE. Background Technology

[0002] In wireless communication systems, such as 4G or 5G mobile communication technologies, multi-carrier technology is widely used to improve transmission rates and system capacity. Examples include carrier aggregation (CA) and dual connectivity (DC) technologies.

[0003] However, when multi-carrier transmission is implemented using certain frequency band combinations, some self-interference problems may arise, such as harmonic interference, adjacent channel interference, and intermodulation interference. Given a fixed frequency, the magnitude of the interference is usually related to the uplink transmit power. For example, the higher the transmit power, the greater the interference, and the greater the downlink sensitivity loss.

[0004] To ensure the performance of carrier aggregation, wireless communication protocols typically specify the sensitivity loss under worst-case conditions, i.e., the maximum sensitivity degradation (MSD) cannot exceed a certain value. However, each user equipment (UE) has different self-interference suppression capabilities, and the strength of interference suppression capability is related to sensitivity loss. If the network does not differentiate between the UE's interference suppression capabilities (i.e., sensitivity loss capability), the multi-carrier configuration of the UE may be inaccurate, thus affecting downlink transmission. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method, apparatus, communication device, and storage medium for a UE.

[0006] According to a first aspect of this disclosure, a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE is provided, executed by the UE, comprising:

[0007] Send first information indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability, wherein the first information is used by the base station to determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration.

[0008] According to a second aspect of this disclosure, a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE is provided, executed by a base station, comprising:

[0009] Receive the first information indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability;

[0010] Based on the first information, the UE's multi-carrier configuration is determined.

[0011] According to a third aspect of this disclosure, a multi-carrier configuration apparatus for a UE is provided, applied to the UE, comprising:

[0012] The transmitting module is configured to transmit first information indicating the sensitivity loss capability of the UE, wherein the first information is used by the base station to determine the multi-carrier configuration of the UE.

[0013] According to a fourth aspect of this disclosure, a multi-carrier configuration apparatus for a UE is provided, applied to a base station, comprising:

[0014] The receiving module is configured to receive first information indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability;

[0015] The processing module is configured to determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration based on the first information.

[0016] According to a fifth aspect of the present disclosure, a communication device is provided, comprising:

[0017] processor;

[0018] Memory used to store instructions executable by the storage processor;

[0019] The processor is configured to implement a multi-carrier configuration apparatus method for a UE in any embodiment of the present disclosure when running executable instructions.

[0020] According to a sixth aspect of the present disclosure, a computer storage medium is provided, wherein the computer storage medium stores a computer executable program, which, when executed by a processor, implements a UE multi-carrier configuration apparatus method according to any embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0021] The technical solutions provided in this disclosure can include the following beneficial effects:

[0022] In this embodiment, the UE can send first information indicating its sensitivity loss capability, enabling the base station to determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration based on this capability. This allows the base station to accurately determine whether to configure multiple carriers for various types of UEs. On one hand, it reduces the frequency utilization and transmission rate reduction caused by directly omitting multiple carriers for UEs with relatively strong interference suppression capabilities; on the other hand, it reduces the occurrence of significant sensitivity loss for UEs with relatively weak interference suppression capabilities due to configuring multiple carriers. This allows for configuring multiple carriers for UEs with relatively strong interference suppression capabilities to improve frequency utilization and transmission rate, or omitting multiple carriers for UEs with relatively weak interference suppression capabilities to improve downlink transmission quality.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 This illustration shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a wireless communication system provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the wireless communication system is a communication system based on cellular mobile communication technology. The wireless communication system may include: several user equipment 110 and several base stations 120.

[0038] User equipment 110 can be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user. User equipment 110 can communicate with one or more core networks via a Radio Access Network (RAN). User equipment 110 can be an Internet of Things (IoT) user equipment, such as sensor devices, mobile phones (or "cellular" phones), and computers with IoT user equipment capabilities. For example, it can be a fixed, portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-embedded, or vehicle-mounted device. Examples include a station (STA), subscriber unit, subscriber station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, access point, remote terminal, access terminal, user terminal, user agent, user device, or user equipment. Alternatively, user equipment 110 can also be a device from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Alternatively, user equipment 110 can also be a vehicle-mounted device, such as a vehicle computer with wireless communication capabilities, or a wireless user equipment connected to an external vehicle computer. Alternatively, user equipment 110 can also be a roadside device, such as a street light, traffic light, or other roadside device with wireless communication capabilities.

[0039] Base station 120 can be a network-side device in a wireless communication system. This wireless communication system can be a 4G system (also known as Long Term Evolution, LTE); or it can be a 5G system (also known as a New Radio, 5G NR, or 5G NR system). Alternatively, it can be the next generation after 5G. In this case, the access network in the 5G system can be called a New Generation-Radio Access Network (NG-RAN).

[0040] The base station 120 can be an evolved NB (eNB) used in a 4G system. Alternatively, the base station 120 can also be a gNB (gNB) using a centralized-distributed architecture in a 5G system. When the base station 120 adopts a centralized-distributed architecture, it typically includes a central unit (CU) and at least two distributed units (DUs). The central unit is equipped with a protocol stack of the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer, the Radio Link Control (RLC) layer, and the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer; the distributed units are equipped with a physical (PHY) layer protocol stack. This disclosure does not limit the specific implementation of the base station 120.

[0041] Base station 120 and user equipment 110 can establish a wireless connection via a wireless air interface. In different implementations, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on the fourth-generation mobile communication network technology (4G) standard; or, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on the fifth-generation mobile communication network technology (5G) standard, such as a new air interface; or, the wireless air interface can also be a wireless air interface based on a next-generation mobile communication network technology standard based on 5G.

[0042] In some embodiments, user equipment 110 can also establish E2E (End to End) connections. Examples include vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, and vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) communication in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication.

[0043] Here, the user equipment mentioned above can be considered as the terminal equipment in the following embodiments.

[0044] In some embodiments, the wireless communication system described above may further include a network management device 130.

[0045] Several base stations 120 are connected to network management device 130. Network management device 130 can be a core network device in a wireless communication system, such as a Mobility Management Entity (MME) in an Evolved Packet Core (EPC). Alternatively, it can be other core network devices, such as a Serving Gateway (SGW), a Public Data Network Gateway (PGW), a Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF), or a Home Subscriber Server (HSS). The implementation of network management device 130 is not limited in this embodiment.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, this disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by the UE, including:

[0047] Step S21: Send first information indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability, wherein the first information is used by the base station to determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration.

[0048] In one embodiment, the UE can be various terminals. For example, the UE can be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a computer, a server, a wearable device, a game control platform, or a multimedia device.

[0049] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by the UE, including: reporting first information to a base station indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability.

[0050] In one embodiment, the base station can be various types of base stations, such as 2G base stations, 3G base stations, 4G base stations, 5G base stations or other evolved base stations.

[0051] In one embodiment, the multi-carrier configuration can be, but is not limited to, a carrier aggregation multi-carrier configuration or a dual-link multi-carrier configuration. Here, the dual-link multi-carrier configuration can be, but is not limited to, an EN-DC multi-carrier configuration or a NE-DC multi-carrier configuration.

[0052] In another embodiment, multi-carrier configuration can be, but is not limited to, multi-carrier configuration or multi-carrier capability priority configuration. Here, if the priority of the UE's multi-carrier capability is relatively high, then multi-carrier configuration is given higher priority to the UE.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following: capability indication information, indicating whether the UE has multi-carrier capability; priority indication information, indicating the priority of the UE's multi-carrier capability; and desensitization indication information, indicating the UE's sensitivity loss.

[0054] In one embodiment, the capability indication information can be one bit or more bits of information. For example, if the capability indication information is "1", it indicates that the UE has multi-carrier capability; if the capability indication information is "0", it indicates that the UE does not have multi-carrier capability. As another example, if the capability indication information is "01", it indicates that the UE has multi-carrier capability; if the capability indication information is "00", it indicates that the UE does not have multi-carrier capability.

[0055] In one embodiment, the priority indication information can be one bit or more bits. For example, if the priority indication information is "1", it indicates that the UE's multi-carrier capability has the highest priority; if the priority indication information is "0", it indicates that the UE's multi-carrier capability has the highest priority. Here, UEs with the highest priority are configured to use multi-carrier capabilities before UEs with the highest priority. Similarly, if the priority indication information is "001", it indicates that the UE's multi-carrier capability has the highest priority; if the priority indication information is "011", it indicates that the UE's multi-carrier capability has the highest priority. Here, UEs with the highest priority are configured to use multi-carrier capabilities before UEs with the highest priority.

[0056] In one embodiment, the desensitization indication information indicates the range of sensitivity loss or the maximum desensitization (MSD).

[0057] In one embodiment, the desensitization indication information can be one bit or more bits of information. For example, if the desensitization indication information is "1", it indicates a sensitivity loss of a first range; if the desensitization indication information is "0", it indicates a sensitivity loss of a second range; here, the first range can be less than or equal to 10dB, and the second range can be greater than 10dB and less than or equal to 20dB. As another example, the desensitization indication information is "0010", indicating a sensitivity loss range of less than or equal to 10dB, or indicating an MSD of 10dB.

[0058] In one embodiment, capability indication information, priority indication information, and desensitization indication information can all be carried by predetermined bits; the predetermined bits carrying capability indication information, priority indication information, and desensitization indication information are different.

[0059] In one embodiment, the desensitization indication information indicating the range of sensitivity loss is located in a different predetermined bit position than the desensitization indication information indicating the maximum sensitivity reduction. For example, the indication information indicating the range of sensitivity loss is carried in the first to fifth bits of the first information, or the desensitization indication information indicating the maximum sensitivity reduction is carried in the sixth to eighth bits of the first information.

[0060] Here, if we disregard the UE's sensitivity loss capability (i.e., the UE's interference suppression capability) and configure or not configure multiple carriers for all UEs; for example, if all UEs are not configured with multiple carriers, even if some of the UEs have relatively strong interference suppression capabilities, they cannot use multiple carriers for transmission to improve frequency utilization and transmission rate; on the other hand, if all UEs are configured with multiple carriers, even if some of the UEs have relatively weak interference suppression capabilities, the configuration of multiple carriers for these UEs will cause significant interference, resulting in poor downlink transmission quality.

[0061] In this embodiment, the UE can send first information indicating its sensitivity loss capability, enabling the base station to determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration based on this capability. This allows the base station to accurately determine whether to configure multiple carriers for various types of UEs. On one hand, it reduces the frequency utilization and transmission rate reduction caused by directly omitting multiple carriers for UEs with relatively strong interference suppression capabilities; on the other hand, it reduces the occurrence of significant sensitivity loss for UEs with relatively weak interference suppression capabilities due to configuring multiple carriers. This allows for configuring multiple carriers for UEs with relatively strong interference suppression capabilities to improve frequency utilization and transmission rate, or omitting multiple carriers for UEs with relatively weak interference suppression capabilities to improve downlink transmission quality.

[0062] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the methods provided in the embodiments of this disclosure can be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of this disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0063] The following UE multi-carrier configuration method is executed by the base station and is similar to the UE multi-carrier configuration method executed by the UE described above. For technical details not disclosed in the UE multi-carrier configuration method embodiment executed by the base station, please refer to the description of the UE multi-carrier configuration method example executed by the UE, which will not be described in detail here.

[0064] like Figure 3 As shown, this disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, including:

[0065] Step S31: Receive first information indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability;

[0066] Step S32: Determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration based on the first information.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following: capability indication information, indicating whether the UE has multi-carrier capability; priority indication information, indicating the priority of the UE's multi-carrier capability; and desensitization indication information, indicating the UE's sensitivity loss.

[0068] In some embodiments, desensitization indication information indicates the range or MSD of sensitivity loss.

[0069] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the first information may be the first information in step S21.

[0070] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: receiving first information sent by the base station indicating the UE's sensitivity loss capability.

[0071] The method provided in this disclosure can also be executed by other network devices in the network; for example, it can be executed by other network devices in the access network or by core network devices. When the UE's multi-carrier configuration method is executed by the core network device, the core network device receives the first information forwarded by the base station.

[0072] In some embodiments, step S32 includes:

[0073] Based on the desensitization indication information included in the first information, the MSD is determined;

[0074] Based on MSD, determine the UE's maximum allowed uplink power;

[0075] The UE's multi-carrier configuration is determined based on the maximum allowed uplink power.

[0076] The above implementation methods can be referred to the description on the UE side for details, and will not be repeated here.

[0077] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the methods provided in the embodiments of this disclosure can be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of this disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0078] like Figure 4 As shown, this disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration for a UE, executed by a base station, including:

[0079] Step S41: Determine the MSD based on the desensitization indication information included in the first information.

[0080] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the desensitization indication information is the desensitization indication information of step S21.

[0081] For example, the base station receives first information; if the first information includes desensitization indication information indicating the range of sensitivity loss, the MSD is determined based on the maximum value of the range of sensitivity loss. For example, if the desensitization indication information included in the first information indicates that the range of sensitivity loss is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 10dB, then the MSD is determined to be 10dB.

[0082] For example, the base station receives first information; if the first information includes desensitization indication information indicating MSD, then the MSD indicated by the desensitization indication information included in the first information is determined, and the MSD is determined. For example, if the desensitization indication information included in the first information indicates 20dB, then 20dB is determined to be the MSD.

[0083] Thus, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station can accurately determine the maximum sensitivity reduction of the UE based on the desensitization indication information included in the first information.

[0084] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the methods provided in the embodiments of this disclosure can be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of this disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0085] like Figure 5 As shown, this disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, including:

[0086] Step S51: Determine the maximum allowed uplink power of the UE based on the MSD.

[0087] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the maximum allowed uplink power of the UE based on the MSD and the interference type of multi-carrier transmission.

[0088] In some embodiments, step S51 includes: determining the maximum allowed uplink power of the UE based on the MSD and the interference type of multi-carrier transmission.

[0089] In one embodiment, the interference types in multi-carrier transmission include, but are not limited to, one of the following: harmonic interference, adjacent channel interference, and intermodulation interference. Here, harmonic interference can be Nth harmonic interference; N is an integer greater than 1. Here, intermodulation interference can be Nth order intermodulation interference; N is an integer greater than 1.

[0090] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the interference type of multi-carrier transmission based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation.

[0091] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the harmonic order of harmonic interference based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation.

[0092] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the intermodulation order of intermodulation interference based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation.

[0093] For example, the base station stores the frequency relationships of candidate carrier aggregations and the correspondence between various interference types. For instance, the candidate carrier aggregation is an aggregation of band n3 and band 78; based on this candidate carrier aggregation, the interference type is determined to be second harmonic interference.

[0094] Thus, the embodiments of this disclosure can accurately determine the type of interference in multi-carrier transmission by using the base station based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation; and can also accurately determine the harmonic order of harmonic interference or the intermodulation order of intermodulation carriers by using the base station based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation.

[0095] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to interference of type harmonic interference, determining the maximum allowed uplink power based on the maximum transmit power, MSD and harmonic order.

[0096] Here, MSD refers to the UE's MSD. And maximum transmit power refers to the UE's maximum transmit power.

[0097] For example, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is harmonic interference, it determines a first ratio based on the ratio of MSD to the harmonic order; the base station then determines the maximum allowable uplink power based on the difference between the maximum transmit power and the first ratio. For instance, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is Nth harmonic interference, determines the MSD to be X, and the UE's maximum transmit power to be P, then it determines the UE's maximum allowable uplink power. Where N is an integer greater than 1.

[0098] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to interference of type harmonic interference, determining the maximum allowed uplink power based on the maximum transmit power, MSD, harmonic order and a first parameter.

[0099] In one embodiment, the first parameter can be determined based on the base station, or it can be determined based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation. Here, the first parameter can be a1.

[0100] For example, the uplink carrier 1 of the candidate carrier aggregation has a frequency of f1, the uplink carrier 2 has a frequency of f2, and the downlink carrier 3 affected by interference has a frequency of f3; where f1 is less than f2. The base station can then determine the first parameter (a1), the second parameter (a2), and the third parameter (a3) ​​according to the formula |a×f1+b×f2-f3|. Here, the sum of the absolute values ​​of a and b is the harmonic order of the harmonic interference, or the sum of the absolute values ​​of a and b is the intermodulation order of the intermodulation interference. In one embodiment, if the sum of the absolute values ​​of a and b is the harmonic order of the harmonic interference, b can be 0. Here, the magnitude of |a×f1+b×f2-f3| is positively correlated with the magnitudes of a1, a2, and a3. Here, the larger |a×f1+b×f2-f3| is, the greater the difference between the interference frequency generated by the aggregation of f1 and f2 and the frequency of f3. The greater the difference between the interference frequency point generated by the aggregation of f1 and f2 and the frequency point of f3, the smaller the impact of interference on the multi-carrier, and the larger the parameters a1, a2, and a3 are determined to be. In one embodiment, a1, a2, and a3 can all be less than or equal to the first power. For example, the first power is 5 dB.

[0101] For example, if a base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is harmonic interference, it determines a first ratio based on the ratio of MSD to the harmonic order; the base station determines a first value based on the difference between the maximum transmit power and the first ratio; and it determines the maximum allowable uplink power based on the sum of the first value and a first parameter. For instance, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is Nth harmonic interference, determines that the MSD is X, the UE's maximum transmit power is P, and the first parameter is a1, then it determines the UE's maximum allowable uplink power. Where N is an integer greater than 1.

[0102] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to interference type being adjacent channel interference, determining the maximum allowed uplink power based on the maximum transmit power and the maximum allowable speed (MSD).

[0103] For example, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is adjacent channel interference, it determines the maximum allowable uplink power based on the difference between the maximum transmit power and the MSD. For instance, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is adjacent channel interference, determines the MSD to be X, and the UE's maximum transmit power to be P, then it determines that the UE's maximum allowable uplink power is A = PX.

[0104] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to interference type being adjacent channel interference, determining the maximum uplink allowable power based on the maximum transmit power, MSD, and a second parameter.

[0105] In one embodiment, the second parameter can be determined based on the base station, or it can be determined based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation. Here, the second parameter can be a2 in the above embodiment.

[0106] For example, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is adjacent channel interference, it determines a second value based on the difference between the maximum transmit power and the MSD; and determines the maximum uplink allowable power based on the sum of the second value and the second parameter. For instance, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is adjacent channel interference, determines the MSD to be X, the UE's maximum transmit power to be P, and the second parameter to be a2, then the maximum uplink allowable power of the UE is determined to be A = P - X + a2.

[0107] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to intermodulation interference, determining the maximum allowed uplink power based on the maximum transmit power, MSD, and intermodulation order.

[0108] For example, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is intermodulation interference, it determines a second ratio based on the ratio of MSD to intermodulation order; the base station then determines the maximum allowable uplink power based on the difference between the maximum transmit power and the second ratio. For instance, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is Nth-order intermodulation interference, determines the MSD to be X, and the UE's maximum transmit power to be P, then it determines the UE's maximum allowable uplink power. Where N is an integer greater than 1.

[0109] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to intermodulation interference, determining the maximum allowed uplink power based on the maximum transmit power, MSD, intermodulation order, and a third parameter.

[0110] In one embodiment, the third parameter can be determined based on the base station, or it can be determined based on the frequency relationship of candidate carrier aggregation. Here, the third parameter can be a3 in the above embodiment.

[0111] For example, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is intermodulation interference, it determines a second ratio based on the ratio of MSD to intermodulation order; the base station determines a third value based on the difference between the maximum transmit power and the second ratio; and the maximum allowable uplink power is determined based on the sum of the third value and the third parameter. For instance, if the base station determines that the interference type of multi-carrier transmission is N-order intermodulation interference, determines that the MSD is X, the UE's maximum transmit power is P, and the third parameter is a3, then the maximum allowable uplink power of the UE is determined. Where N is an integer greater than 1.

[0112] In some embodiments, the maximum allowed uplink power of the UE is determined based on the MSD and the interference type of multi-carrier transmission, including one of the following:

[0113] In response to the interference type being harmonic interference, the maximum allowable uplink power is determined based on the maximum transmit power, MSD, and harmonic order.

[0114] In response to the interference type being adjacent channel interference, the maximum allowable uplink power is determined based on the maximum transmit power and MSD;

[0115] In response to intermodulation interference, the maximum allowable uplink power is determined based on the maximum transmit power, MSD, and intermodulation order.

[0116] Thus, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station can accurately determine the maximum allowed uplink power based on the type of interference transmitted and the maximum transmit power of the UE, thereby enabling the base station to determine whether to configure multiple carriers for the base station based on the maximum allowed uplink power of the UE.

[0117] It should be noted that those skilled in the art will understand that the methods provided in the embodiments of this disclosure can be executed alone or together with some methods in the embodiments of this disclosure or some methods in related technologies.

[0118] like Figure 6 As shown, this disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, including:

[0119] Step S61: Determine the UE's multi-carrier configuration based on the maximum allowed uplink power.

[0120] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the maximum uplink allowable power is the maximum uplink allowable power in step S51.

[0121] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the UE's multi-carrier capability in response to the maximum allowed uplink power being greater than the uplink transmit power.

[0122] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the priority of configuring multi-carrier capabilities for the UE in response to the maximum allowed uplink power being greater than the uplink transmit power.

[0123] For example, if the base station determines that the maximum allowed uplink power is greater than the uplink transmit power, it determines that the priority for configuring the UE's multi-carrier capability is the first priority.

[0124] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the UE's multi-carrier capability in response to the difference between the maximum allowed uplink power and the uplink transmit power being greater than a predetermined power.

[0125] In one embodiment, the predetermined power is less than or equal to the second power. For example, the second power is 3 dB.

[0126] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the priority of configuring multi-carrier capabilities for the UE in response to the difference between the maximum allowed uplink power and the uplink transmit power being greater than a predetermined power.

[0127] In some embodiments, step S61 includes one of the following:

[0128] In response to the maximum allowed uplink power being greater than the uplink transmit power, determine the UE's multi-carrier capability configuration;

[0129] In response to the maximum allowed uplink power being greater than the uplink transmit power, the priority for configuring multi-carrier capabilities for the UE is determined;

[0130] If the difference between the maximum allowed uplink power and the uplink transmit power is greater than a predetermined power, the UE is configured with multi-carrier capability.

[0131] In response to a situation where the difference between the maximum allowed uplink power and the uplink transmit power is greater than a predetermined power, the priority for configuring multi-carrier capabilities for the UE is determined.

[0132] In this embodiment, the base station can determine whether to configure multiple carriers for the UE based on whether the maximum allowed uplink power is greater than the uplink transmit power, or whether the difference between the maximum allowed uplink power and the uplink transmit power is greater than a predetermined power. This allows for the configuration of multiple carriers for UEs with strong interference suppression capabilities, thereby improving the frequency utilization and transmission speed of these UEs.

[0133] Furthermore, the priority for configuring multi-carrier capability for a UE can be determined based on whether the maximum allowed uplink power is greater than the uplink transmit power, or whether the output value of the maximum allowed uplink power minus the uplink transmit power is greater than a predetermined power. The priority for configuring multi-carrier capability for UEs with strong interference suppression capabilities can be set so that the base station can prioritize configuring multi-carrier capability for these UEs.

[0134] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining to configure multiple carriers for the UE in response to the inclusion of capability indication information in first information.

[0135] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining that multi-carrier configuration is not performed for the UE in response to the absence of capability indication information in the first information.

[0136] In one embodiment, the capability indication information indicates that the UE has multi-carrier capability.

[0137] In this embodiment of the disclosure, if the base station receives capability indication information sent by the UE indicating that the UE has multi-carrier capability, the base station determines that it will configure multi-carrier for the UE; if the base station does not receive the capability indication information, the base station determines that it will not configure multi-carrier for the UE. In this way, it is possible to determine more accurately whether to configure multi-carrier for the UE.

[0138] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: determining the priority for configuring multi-carrier capabilities for the UE in response to priority indication information included in first information.

[0139] This disclosure provides a multi-carrier configuration method for a UE, executed by a base station, which may include: in response to the absence of priority indication information in the first information, determining the priority for not configuring multi-carrier capability for the UE.

[0140] In this embodiment of the disclosure, if the base station receives priority indication information from the UE indicating the priority of the UE's multi-carrier capability, the base station can directly configure the priority of the multi-carrier capability for the UE based on the priority indication information; if the base station does not receive the priority indication information, the base station will not configure the priority of the multi-carrier capability for the UE. In this way, it is possible to determine more accurately whether to configure the priority of the multi-carrier capability for the UE, and to determine more accurately the priority corresponding to the UE's multi-carrier capability.

[0141] In some embodiments, S32 includes at least one of the following:
