Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wireless communication, and more particularly to a detection method, apparatus, terminal, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Although the terminal is currently in sleep mode, it still needs to periodically measure or detect certain channels or signals in the current system. While power consumption is improved in this state, it is still several orders of magnitude higher than in a state where pre-reception preparation is not required. Therefore, the terminal uses an auxiliary module to monitor the power of a specific signal (which can be called a "wake-up signal") sent by the network side to determine whether a signal will subsequently be sent to the terminal. If the signal power reaches a certain requirement, it instructs the terminal's communication module to wake up. However, due to limitations such as the transmission power of this specific signal and the receiver sensitivity of the auxiliary module, it cannot be guaranteed that this specific signal is consistent with the cell coverage within the mobile communication system (such as fourth-generation (4G) or fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication technology). This inconsistency means that even if the network side sends the specific signal, the terminal may not detect it at all. When no power is detected, the terminal cannot distinguish between the two situations: the network not sending the specific signal and the network sending the specific signal but the coverage of the specific signal is insufficient, resulting in an ambiguity problem. To address this ambiguity, related technologies introduce an additional periodically transmitted signal (which can be called a "hold-alive signal") as a priori signal to help the auxiliary module distinguish whether the currently undetectable power is due to the network not transmitting that specific signal or insufficient coverage of that specific signal. However, this approach requires the terminal to detect two signals, increasing the complexity of the system design. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the related technical issues, embodiments of this application provide a detection method, apparatus, terminal, and storage medium.

[0004] The technical solution of this application embodiment is implemented as follows:

[0005] This application provides a detection method applied to a terminal, including:

[0006] In a cell configured with a first signal or channel, after cell selection or reselection, the signal quality or signal strength of the current serving cell is measured within the cell to which the cell is selected to camp. The measurement includes measurements based on the first signal or channel and measurements based on the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. At least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell.

[0007] If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies the first condition, the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength is selected as the detection target from at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel.

[0008] If the detection results of at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel do not meet the first condition, cell camping and / or screening of target transmission signals or channels of inherent measurement resources are performed by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell; wherein,

[0009] The first condition represents one of the following:

[0010] The transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel is detected;

[0011] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than or equal to the first threshold;

[0012] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than or equal to the second threshold;

[0013] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than the first threshold;

[0014] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than the second threshold.

[0015] In the above scheme, the inherent measurement resources include signals and / or channels that the network side must send when it can provide services to the terminal and that can be used for the terminal's measurements.

[0016] In the above scheme, the inherent measurement resources include one of the following:

[0018] Reference signals and / or channels used in the system for synchronization and indication of key system information;

[0019] The system is configured with a reference signal that can be used for idle-state measurements.

[0020] In the above scheme, at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the first signal or channel has a quasi-co-located (QCL) relationship with at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the inherent measurement resource.

[0021] In the above scheme, after the terminal camps on a cell, the terminal detects and, based on the detection result, determines whether it is necessary to monitor or detect the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the camped cell, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0022] In the above scheme, when at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies the first condition, it is not necessary to detect any transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0023] or,

[0024] When at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the first signal or channel does not meet the first condition, it is necessary to detect the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, filter at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0025] In the above scheme, when the received signal strength of the selected transmission signal or channel does not meet the third threshold and / or the received signal quality does not meet the fourth threshold, it is necessary to detect or monitor at least one transmission signal or channel corresponding to the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal, without needing to detect at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal of the serving cell.

[0026] or,

[0027] When the received signal strength meets the fifth threshold and / or the received signal quality meets the sixth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, the transmission signal or channel of the first signal corresponding to the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell is detected, and based on the detection result, it is determined whether it is necessary to detect or monitor the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0028] In the above scheme, the third threshold may be the same as or different from the fifth threshold;

[0029] And / or,

[0030] The fourth threshold may be the same as or different from the sixth threshold.

[0033] When receiving the first information sent by the second terminal, the signal quality or signal strength of the second terminal is measured. The first information indicates that the second terminal will send a second signal or channel. The measurement includes measurement based on the second signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources sent by the second terminal. At least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal.

[0034] If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, then the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength is selected as the detection target from at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel.

[0035] If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel does not meet the second condition, the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource is filtered by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource of the second terminal; wherein,

[0036] The second condition represents one of the following:

[0043] Reference signals used for synchronization between terminals;

[0044] Reference signals and / or channels used for synchronization and key information indication between terminals;

[0045] The system is configured with a reference signal that can be used for idle-state measurements.

[0046] In the above scheme, at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the second signal or channel has a QCL relationship with at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the inherent measurement resource.

[0047] In the above scheme, after the second signal or channel is used to select the terminal, the first terminal detects and, based on the detection result, determines whether it is necessary to monitor or detect the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0048] In the above scheme, when at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, it is not necessary to detect any transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0049] or,

[0050] When at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the second signal or channel does not meet the second condition, it is necessary to detect the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, filter at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0051] In the above scheme, when the received signal strength does not meet the ninth threshold and / or the received signal quality does not meet the tenth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, it is necessary to detect or monitor at least one transmission signal or channel corresponding to the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal, and it is not necessary to detect at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal of the second terminal.

[0092] The detection method, apparatus, terminal, and storage medium provided in this application embodiment, in a cell configured with a first signal or channel, after completing cell selection or reselection, the terminal measures the signal quality or signal strength of the current serving cell. The measurement includes measurements based on the first signal or channel and measurements based on the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell.

The solution provided in this application involves the network side sending a signal or channel. For a dormant terminal, this signal or channel serves both to maintain validity and to wake up the terminal. Thus, the terminal only needs to detect this single signal. Based on the correspondence between this signal and the inherent measurement resources, the terminal determines when it needs to determine its working state based on the inherent measurement resources and when it needs to determine its working state based on this signal.

The solution provided in this application embodiment allows the terminal to send a signal or channel. For a dormant receiving terminal, this signal or channel has both a function of maintaining validity and a wake-up function. Thus, the receiving terminal only needs to detect this one signal. Based on the correspondence between this signal and the inherent measurement resources, it determines when the terminal needs to determine its working state based on the inherent measurement resources and when it needs to determine its working state based on this signal. This greatly reduces the complexity of the system design. Attached Figure Description

[0097] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the terminal structure according to an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0098] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0099] In related technologies, the terminal's auxiliary module determines whether a signal will be sent to the terminal after monitoring the presence or absence of the wake-up signal's power. When there is signal power, it instructs the terminal's communication module to wake up and perform corresponding operations. Specifically, in the idle state, it may perform cell selection / reselection or paging listening; in the connected state, it may perform signal or channel detection assisted by the wake-up signal, such as the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) during the active duration; when there is no signal function, it continues to sleep or remains in a node state, ignoring paging in the current or subsequent paging transmission candidate positions, and / or ignoring the detection of PDCCH or Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH).

[0100] On the other hand, the terminal's auxiliary module also uses the power detection of the aforementioned hold-up signal to determine whether the terminal is within the effective coverage range of the wake-up signal, i.e., whether the wake-up signal remains valid. If the auxiliary module cannot detect the hold-up signal or the detected hold-up signal power is below a certain threshold, it is considered that the terminal is not within the effective coverage range of the wake-up signal. The terminal's communication module is then notified to resume the normal idle state cell reselection process or to listen to paging normally according to the normal paging cycle, or to listen to PDCCH normally, and can no longer ignore paging in any paging cycle, or can no longer ignore any PDCCH candidate positions that should belong to the active period according to the network side configuration of the terminal. If the auxiliary module detects the hold-up signal or the detected hold-up signal power is not below a certain threshold, it indicates that the wake-up signal remains valid.

[0101] As can be seen from the above description, in related technologies, detecting the power of the wake-up signal is considered a need to wake the terminal. To avoid uncertainty in the terminal's behavior when the wake-up signal is not detected, a keep-active signal is additionally introduced to distinguish ambiguity. Specifically,

[0102] 1) If the power of the hold signal and the power of the wake-up signal are detected, it indicates that the terminal needs to wake up;

[0103] 2) If the power of the keep-active signal is detected but the power of the wake-up signal is not detected, it means that the terminal does not need to wake up;

[0104] 3) No valid signal power was detected, indicating that the auxiliary module can no longer be relied upon to determine whether the terminal should wake up or go to sleep.

[0105] Based on this, in various embodiments of this application, the sending end (the terminal in the network side or in the direct link (SL) scenario) sends a signal or channel (i.e., there is no need to send a keep-alive signal for whether to keep the signal active and a wake-up signal for waking up separately). For the dormant terminal, this signal or channel has both the keep-alive function and the wake-up function. In this way, the terminal only needs to detect this one signal and, based on the correspondence between this signal and the inherent system signal (i.e., inherent measurement resources), define when the terminal needs to determine the working state based on the inherent system signal and when it needs to determine the working state based on this signal, thereby reducing the complexity of the design.

[0106] The processing of the terminal differs depending on the transmitting end that sends the signal that combines the functions of keeping it active and waking it up. The solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below for different transmitting ends.

[0107] First, the scheme of this application embodiment when the sending end includes the network side is described.

[0108] This application provides a detection method applied to a terminal, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0109] Step 101: In a cell configured with the first signal or channel, the terminal selects the cell to camp on after completing cell selection or reselection;

[0110] Step 102: After completing cell selection or reselection, measure the signal quality or signal strength of the current serving cell within the selected cell. The measurement includes measurement based on the first signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. At least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell.

[0111] Step 103: If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel among the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies the first condition, select the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel as the detection target; if the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel does not satisfy the first condition, perform cell camping and / or filter the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell; wherein,

[0112] The first condition represents one of the following:

[0113] The transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel is detected;

[0114] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than or equal to the first threshold;

[0115] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than or equal to the second threshold;

[0116] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than the first threshold;

[0117] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than the second threshold.

[0118] In practical applications, the terminal can be referred to as a user equipment (UE) or a user.

[0119] In step 101, the cell selected by the terminal to serve is configured with the first signal or signal. Accordingly, the currently serving cell is the cell selected by the terminal to serve.

[0120] For example, assuming the first cell is configured with the first signal or signal, after the terminal completes cell or reselection and selects to camp on the first cell, the terminal measures the signal quality or signal strength of the first cell. The measurement includes measurements based on the first signal or channel and measurements based on the inherent measurement resources of the first cell.

[0121] If the detection power of at least one transmission signal or channel in the first signal or channel satisfies the first condition, the terminal selects the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel as the detection target; if the detection power of none of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies the first condition, the terminal performs cell camping and / or filters the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources through at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the first cell.

[0122] In one embodiment, the inherent measurement resources include signals and / or channels that the network side must send when it can provide services to the terminal, and which can be used for the terminal's measurements.

[0123] Specifically, the inherent measurement resources may include one of the following:

[0124] The reference signal used for synchronization in the system;

[0125] Reference signals and / or channels used in the system for synchronization and indication of key system information;

[0126] The system is configured with a reference signal that can be used for idle-state measurements.

[0127] In different communication systems, the names of the reference signals may be different. For example, in a 5G system, the reference signals and / or channels used for synchronization and main system information indication include synchronization signal blocks (SSBs). This application does not limit this.

[0128] After the terminal camps on a cell, the terminal detects and, based on the detection result, determines whether it is necessary to monitor or detect the transmission signals or channels of the inherent measurement resources of the camped cell, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal (also known as the scheduling indication signal).

[0129] Specifically, when at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the first signal or channel satisfies the first condition, it is not necessary to detect any transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor scheduling signals (such as PDCCH).

[0130] Accordingly, when at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel does not meet the first condition, it is necessary to detect the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, filter at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0131] The correspondence between at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel and at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell means that: a certain transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel has a QCL relationship with a certain transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources. This correspondence can be one-to-one, that is, one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources, or it can be one-to-many, that is, one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to multiple transmission signals or channels of the inherent measurement resources. In other words, one of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel has a QCL relationship with at least one of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources.

[0132] In practical applications, the QCL relationship can be specified via a Transport Configuration Indicator (TCI).

[0133] In step 103, the terminal performs corresponding processing based on the detection result of whether at least one transmission signal or channel in the first signal or channel meets the first condition.

[0134] Wherein, when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in at least one of the first signal or channel meets the first condition, it indicates that the terminal is still within the coverage area of ​​the current serving cell and does not need to perform cell selection or reselection. It only needs to perform beam selection or reselection based on the first signal or channel. That is, the terminal selects the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel as the detection target. The terminal can continue to sleep. At this time, there is no data to receive for the terminal.

[0135] Accordingly, when the detection results of at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel do not meet the first condition, it indicates that the terminal may not be within the coverage area of ​​the current serving cell. In this case, the terminal cannot continue to detect the first signal or channel on the current beam. It needs to determine whether to perform cell camping and / or filter the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources based on the measurement of at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources. Specifically, the terminal can first determine whether the current location of the terminal still belongs to the current serving cell based on the measurement of at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources, that is, first determine whether the terminal is still within the coverage area of ​​the current serving cell. If it still belongs to the current serving cell, filter the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources. The terminal needs to exit the sleep state (at this time, the terminal believes that reception detection is required, or believes that it is no longer within the coverage area of ​​the first signal or channel). If, based on the measurement of at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources, it is determined that the signal strength of the current cell at the current location of the terminal meets the cell reselection condition (e.g., below a preset threshold), the terminal needs to perform cell reselection.

[0136] In practical applications, the first threshold refers to the detection power threshold that needs to be reached when the transmission signal or channel corresponding to the first signal or channel indicated by the communication system can serve as a valid reference. The first threshold can be set as needed.

[0137] The second threshold refers to the detection quality (or detection strength) threshold that must be achieved when the transmission signal or channel corresponding to the first signal or channel, as indicated by the communication system, can serve as a valid reference. The second threshold can be set as needed.

[0138] In one embodiment, when the terminal filters the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource of the serving cell, if the received signal strength of the selected transmission signal or channel does not meet the third threshold and / or the received signal quality does not meet the fourth threshold, the terminal needs to detect or monitor at least one transmission signal or channel corresponding to the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal, and does not need to detect at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal of the serving cell.

[0139] Accordingly, when the received signal strength meets the fifth threshold and / or the received signal quality meets the sixth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, the transmission signal or channel of the first signal corresponding to the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell is detected, and based on the detection result, it is determined whether it is necessary to detect or monitor the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0140] Through the above operations, it can be ensured that the terminal can continue to sleep when it determines that there is no data to receive for detection, and can wake up the communication module in time when it determines that it is not in the serving cell or that data needs to be received for detection.

[0141] In practical applications, the third and fifth thresholds can be the same or different. Similarly, the fourth and sixth thresholds can be the same or different. Furthermore, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth thresholds can all be set as needed.

[0142] Regarding the first condition, when implementing the scheme of this application embodiment, one of the five conditions can be selected as needed.

[0143] The detection method provided in this application embodiment, in a cell configured with a first signal or channel, after completing cell selection or reselection, selects a cell to camp on, and the terminal measures the signal quality or signal strength of the current serving cell. The measurement includes measurements based on the first signal or channel and measurements based on the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. At least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel among the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies a first condition, a signal quality or signal strength signal is selected from the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel. The transmission signal or channel with the best signal strength is selected as the detection target. If the detection results of at least one of the first signal or channel do not meet the first condition, cell camping and / or filtering of the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell are performed by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources. The first condition represents one of the following: the transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel is detected; the detection power of the transmission signal or channel is greater than or equal to a first threshold; the detection quality of the transmission signal or channel is better than or equal to a second threshold; the detection power of the transmission signal or channel is greater than the first threshold; or the detection quality of the transmission signal or channel is better than the second threshold. The solution provided in this application embodiment involves the network side sending a signal or channel. For a dormant terminal, this signal or channel serves both to maintain validity and to wake up the terminal. Thus, the terminal only needs to detect this single signal. Based on the correspondence between this signal and the inherent measurement resources, the terminal determines when it needs to determine its working state based on the inherent measurement resources and when it needs to determine its working state based on this signal. This significantly reduces the complexity of the system design.

[0144] Next, the scheme of this application embodiment is described, which includes a terminal and a terminal in the inter-terminal link between the sending end.

[0145] This application also provides a detection method, applied to a first terminal, that is, a terminal in a terminal-to-terminal link, that is, a terminal in an SL scenario, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0146] Step 201: Complete the terminal selection and select the second terminal to monitor;

[0147] Step 202: When receiving the first information sent by the second terminal, measure the signal quality or signal strength of the second terminal. The first information indicates that the second terminal will send a second signal or channel. The measurement includes measurement based on the second signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources sent by the second terminal. At least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal.

[0148] Step 203: If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, select the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from the at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel as the detection target; if the detection result of none of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, perform screening of the inherent measurement resource target transmission signal or channel by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource of the second terminal; wherein,

[0149] The second condition represents one of the following:

[0150] The transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel is detected;

[0151] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than or equal to the seventh threshold;

[0152] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than or equal to the eighth threshold;

[0153] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than the seventh threshold;

[0154] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than the eighth threshold.

[0155] In practical applications, the terminal can be referred to as UE or user.

[0156] In one embodiment, the inherent measurement resource includes one of the following:

[0157] The reference signal used for synchronization between terminals is the SL synchronization signal (S-SS).

[0158] Reference signals and / or channels used for synchronization and key information indication between terminals, i.e., SL reference signals and / or channels used for synchronization and key information indication;

[0159] Reference signals configured by the system (i.e., the network side, such as the base station) that can be used for idle state measurements.

[0160] In different communication systems, the names of the reference signals may be different. For example, in a 5G system, the reference signals and / or channels used for synchronization and main system information indication between terminals include SLSSB. This application does not limit this.

[0161] After the second signal or channel is used to select a terminal, the first terminal detects and, based on the detection result, determines whether it is necessary to monitor or detect the transmission signal or channel of the second terminal's inherent measurement resources, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal (also known as the scheduling indication signal).

[0162] Specifically, when at least one of the transmission signals or channels of the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, it is not necessary to detect any transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0163] Accordingly, when at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel does not meet the second condition, it is necessary to detect the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, filter at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0164] The correspondence between at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel and at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource of the second terminal means that: a certain transmission signal or channel of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel has a QCL relationship with a certain transmission signal or channel of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource. This correspondence can be one-to-one, that is, one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource, or it can be one-to-many, that is, one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to multiple transmission signals or channels of the inherent measurement resource. In other words, one of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel has a QCL relationship with at least one of the at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource.

[0165] In step 203, the first terminal performs corresponding processing based on the detection result of whether at least one transmission signal or channel in the second signal or channel meets the second condition.

[0166] Wherein, when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in the second signal or channel meets the second condition, it means that the first terminal is still within the coverage of the second signal or channel, and there is no need to select from multiple transmission signals or channels of inherent measurement resources. It only needs to select or reselect based on the second signal or channel. That is, the first terminal selects the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel as the detection target. The first terminal can continue to sleep. At this time, there is no data to receive for the first terminal.

[0167] Accordingly, when the detection results of at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel do not meet the second condition, it indicates that the first terminal may not be within the coverage range of the second signal or channel. In this case, the first terminal cannot continue to detect the second signal or channel on the current beam and needs to perform screening of the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource based on the measurement of at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource.

[0168] In practical applications, the seventh threshold refers to the detection power threshold that needs to be reached when the transmission signal or channel corresponding to the second signal or channel indicated by the communication system or the second terminal can serve as a valid reference. The seventh threshold can be set as needed.

[0169] The eighth threshold refers to the detection quality (or detection strength) threshold that must be achieved when the transmission signal or channel corresponding to the second signal or channel indicated by the communication system can serve as a valid reference. The eighth threshold can be set as needed.

[0170] In one embodiment, when the first terminal filters the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource of the second terminal, if the received signal strength of the selected transmission signal or channel does not meet the ninth threshold and / or the received signal quality does not meet the tenth threshold, it is necessary to detect or monitor at least one transmission signal or channel corresponding to the inherent measurement resource of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal, and it is not necessary to detect at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal of the second terminal.

[0171] Accordingly, when the received signal strength meets the eleventh threshold and / or the received signal quality meets the twelfth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, the transmission signal or channel of the second signal corresponding to the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal is detected, and based on the detection result, it is determined whether it is necessary to detect or monitor the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0172] Through the above operations, it can be ensured that the terminal can continue to sleep when it determines that there is no data to receive for detection, and can wake up the communication module in time when it determines that data needs to be received for detection.

[0173] In practical applications, the ninth and eleventh thresholds can be the same or different. Similarly, the tenth and twelfth thresholds can be the same or different. Furthermore, the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth thresholds can all be set as needed.

[0174] The detection method provided in this application embodiment completes terminal selection and selects to monitor a second terminal; when receiving first information sent by the second terminal, the first terminal measures the signal quality or signal strength of the second terminal, the first information indicating that the second terminal will send a second signal or channel, the measurement includes measurement based on the second signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources sent by the second terminal, at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal; when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel satisfies a second condition, the second signal or channel is detected... At least one transmission signal or channel is selected as the detection target, based on its optimal signal quality or signal strength. If the detection results of at least one of the second transmission signals or channels do not meet the second condition, at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal is measured to filter the inherent measurement resource target transmission signal or channel. The second condition represents one of the following: a transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel is detected; the detection power of the transmission signal or channel is greater than or equal to a seventh threshold; the detection quality of the transmission signal or channel is better than or equal to an eighth threshold; the detection power of the transmission signal or channel is greater than a seventh threshold; or the detection quality of the transmission signal or channel is better than an eighth threshold. The solution provided in this application embodiment allows the terminal to send a signal or channel. For a dormant receiving terminal, this signal or channel serves both as a stay-on function and a wake-up function. Thus, the receiving terminal only needs to detect this single signal. Based on the correspondence between this signal and the inherent measurement resources, the terminal determines when it needs to determine its operating state based on the inherent measurement resources and when it needs to determine its operating state based on this signal, thereby significantly reducing the terminal's power consumption.

[0175] To implement the method of the embodiments of this application, the embodiments of this application also provide a detection device, which is installed on a terminal, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the device includes:

[0176] The camping unit 301 is used to select the cell to camp on after the terminal completes cell selection or reselection in a cell configured with the first signal or channel.

The measurement includes measurement based on the first signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. At least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell.

[0178] The first processing unit 303 is configured to: select, when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies a first condition, select the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength as the detection target; and when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel does not satisfy the first condition, perform cell camping and / or filter the target transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources; wherein, the first condition represents one of the following:

[0179] The transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel is detected;

[0180] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than or equal to the first threshold.

[0183] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than the second threshold.

[0184] In one embodiment, the first processing unit 303 is further configured to:

[0185] When the received signal strength of the selected transmission signal or channel does not meet the third threshold and / or the received signal quality does not meet the fourth threshold, it is necessary to detect or monitor at least one transmission signal or channel corresponding to the inherent measurement resource, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal, without needing to detect at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal of the serving cell.

[0186] or,

[0187] When the received signal strength meets the fifth threshold and / or the received signal quality meets the sixth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, the transmission signal or channel of the first signal corresponding to the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell is detected, and based on the detection result, it is determined whether it is necessary to detect or monitor the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0188] In practical applications, the dwell unit 301, the first measurement unit 302, and the second processing unit 303 can be implemented by a processor in the detection device combined with a communication interface.

[0189] To implement the method of the embodiments of this application, the embodiments of this application also provide a detection device, which is installed on a terminal, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the device includes:

[0190] The listening unit 401 is used to complete the terminal selection and select to listen to the second terminal.

[0191] The second measurement unit 402 is used to measure the signal quality or signal strength of the second terminal when receiving the first information sent by the second terminal. The first information indicates that the second terminal will send a second signal or channel. The measurement includes measurement based on the second signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources sent by the second terminal. At least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to at least one different transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal.

[0192] The second processing unit 403 is configured to: select, when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, select the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength as the detection target; and when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel does not satisfy the second condition, perform screening of the inherent measurement resource target transmission signal or channel by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resource of the second terminal; wherein, the second condition represents one of the following:

[0193] The transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel is detected;

[0201] When the received signal strength meets the eleventh threshold and / or the received signal quality meets the twelfth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, the transmission signal or channel of the second signal corresponding to the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal is detected, and based on the detection result, it is determined whether it is necessary to detect or monitor the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0202] In practical applications, the monitoring unit 401, the second measurement unit 402, and the second processing unit 403 can be implemented by the processor in the detection device combined with the communication interface.

[0203] It should be noted that the detection processing device provided in the above embodiments is only illustrated by the division of the above program modules. In actual applications, the above processing can be assigned to different program modules as needed, that is, the internal structure of the device can be divided into different program modules to complete all or part of the processing described above. In addition, the detection device and the detection method embodiments provided in the above embodiments belong to the same concept, and the specific implementation process can be found in the method embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0204] Based on the hardware implementation of the above program modules, and in order to implement the method of the embodiments of this application, the embodiments of this application also provide a terminal, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the terminal 500 includes:

[0205] The communication interface 501 is capable of exchanging information with other terminals and / or the network side;

[0206] The processor 502 is connected to the communication interface 501 to enable information interaction with other terminals and / or the network side, and to execute the methods provided by one or more of the above technical solutions when running a computer program;

[0207] The computer program is stored in memory 503.

[0208] Specifically, when the transmitting end includes a network side, the processor 502 is configured to measure the signal quality or signal strength of the current serving cell through the communication interface 501 within a cell configured with a first signal or channel, in which the terminal 500 selects to camp after completing cell selection or reselection. The measurement includes measurements based on the first signal or channel and measurements based on the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. At least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel corresponds to at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell. If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel among the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel satisfies a first condition, the processor selects the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from the at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel as the detection target. If the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel of the first signal or channel does not satisfy the first condition, the processor performs cell camping and / or filters the inherent measurement resource target transmission signal or channel by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the serving cell.

[0218] When the transmitting end includes a terminal in the inter-terminal link, the processor 502 is used to complete terminal selection and select a second terminal to monitor; when receiving first information sent by the second terminal through the communication interface 501, the processor measures the signal quality or signal strength of the second terminal through the communication interface 501, the first information indicating that the second terminal will send a second signal or channel, the measurement includes measurement based on the second signal or channel and measurement based on the inherent measurement resources sent by the second terminal, at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel corresponds to at least one different transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal; and when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel in the at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel satisfies the second condition, the processor selects the transmission signal or channel with the best signal quality or signal strength from the at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel as the detection target; and when the detection result of at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel does not satisfy the second condition, the processor performs screening of the inherent measurement resource target transmission signal or channel by measuring at least one transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal; wherein, the second condition represents one of the following:

[0219] The transmission signal or channel of the second signal or channel is detected;

[0220] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than or equal to the sixth or seventh threshold;

[0221] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than or equal to the eighth threshold;

[0222] The detection power of the transmitted signal or channel is greater than the seventh threshold;

[0223] The detection quality of the transmitted signal or channel is better than the eighth threshold.

[0224] In one embodiment, the processor 502 is further configured to:

[0225] When the received signal strength does not meet the ninth threshold and / or the received signal quality does not meet the tenth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, it is necessary to detect or monitor at least one transmission signal or channel corresponding to the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal, and it is not necessary to detect at least one transmission signal or channel of the second signal of the second terminal.

[0226] or,

[0227] When the received signal strength meets the eleventh threshold and / or the received signal quality meets the twelfth threshold in the selected transmission signal or channel, the transmission signal or channel of the second signal corresponding to the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal is detected, and based on the detection result, it is determined whether it is necessary to detect or monitor the transmission signal or channel of the inherent measurement resources of the second terminal, and / or detect or monitor the scheduling signal.

[0228] It should be noted that the specific processing procedures of processor 502 and communication interface 501 can be understood by referring to the above method.

[0229] Of course, in practical applications, the various components in terminal 500 are coupled together through bus system 504. It can be understood that bus system 504 is used to implement communication between these components.
