[0021] Through this application, the target mobile terminal receives the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the connected base station. The measurement configuration is used to indicate the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition that allow the mobile terminal to trigger the measurement event. The signal strength condition is the condition satisfied by the signal strength of the serving cell to be measured when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, and the signal stability condition is the condition satisfied by the signal stability of the serving cell to be measured when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event.

When it is measured that the reference serving cell simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the target mobile terminal triggers the measurement event and reports the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station. That is to say, since the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the base station not only carries the signal strength condition satisfied by the signal strength of the serving cell to be measured when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, but also carries the signal stability condition satisfied by the signal stability of the serving cell to be measured when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, the measurement event is triggered when the reference serving cell simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. Therefore, the problem of low accuracy of the measurement of the serving cell can be solved, and the effect of improving the accuracy of the measurement of the serving cell can be achieved.

[0034] In this embodiment, a measurement method of a serving cell is provided, which is applied to the above-mentioned computer terminal. Figure 2 It is a flowchart of the measurement method of the serving cell according to the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, and the process includes the following steps:
[0035] Step S202, the target mobile terminal receives the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the connected base station, where the measurement configuration is used to indicate the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition that allow the mobile terminal to trigger the measurement event. The signal strength condition is the condition satisfied by the signal strength of the serving cell to be measured when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, and the signal stability condition is the condition satisfied by the signal stability of the serving cell to be measured when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event;
[0036] Step S204, the target mobile terminal measures whether the reference serving cell corresponding to the measurement event simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition;
[0037] Step S206, when it is measured that the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the target mobile terminal triggers the measurement event and reports a target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station.
[0038] Through the above steps, since the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the base station not only carries the signal strength condition that the signal strength of the serving cell to be measured meets when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, but also carries the signal stability condition that the signal stability of the serving cell to be measured meets when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, the measurement event is triggered only when the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. Therefore, the problem of low measurement accuracy of the serving cell can be solved, and the effect of improving the measurement accuracy of the serving cell can be achieved.
[0039] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above method for measuring the serving cell can be but is not limited to being applied in various communication scenarios, such as: 2G (2-Generation wireless telephone technology), 3G, 4G, 5G, etc.
[0040] In the technical solution provided in the above step S202, the above target mobile terminal can be but is not limited to including computer devices that can be used during movement, such as: mobile phones, laptops, tablets, POS (Point Of Sales) machines, in-vehicle computers, etc.
[0041] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above base station can be but is not limited to being connected to one or more mobile terminals, and can be but is not limited to determining each mobile terminal connected to the base station as the target mobile terminal to perform operations.
[0042] Optionally, in this embodiment, the base station can be but is not limited to making a mobility decision on the target mobile terminal by sending a measurement event. The measurement event can be but is not limited to including various measurement types, such as: RSRP (ReferenceSignal Receiving Power), RSRQ (Reference Signal ReceivingQuality, LTE reference signal receiving quality), SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio), etc. The measurement event can also be but is not limited to including various measurement methods, such as: periodic, event-triggered, etc.
[0043] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above measurement events may include, but are not limited to: serving cell change events, neighbor cell measurement events, reselection events, signal quality report events, measurement report events, etc. For different measurement events, it is possible to, but not limited to, issue a measurement configuration corresponding to each measurement event.
[0044] Optionally, in this embodiment, before issuing a measurement event, it is possible to, but not limited to, determine whether a target mobile terminal meets the conditions for triggering a measurement event by issuing a measurement configuration. The above conditions may include, but are not limited to: signal strength conditions and signal stability conditions, etc. When the target mobile terminal meets conditions such as signal strength conditions and signal stability conditions, the base station may, but not limited to, send a measurement event to the target mobile terminal.
[0045] Optionally, in this embodiment, the signal strength may be used to, but not limited to, indicate the communication quality between the mobile terminal and the base station. It is possible to, but not limited to, detect the signal strength when the communication quality between the mobile terminal and the base station is good as the above signal strength condition, and it is possible to, but not limited to, determine whether the communication quality between the target mobile terminal and the base station meets the requirements for triggering a measurement event by detecting whether the signal strength between the target mobile terminal and the base station meets the signal strength condition.
[0046] Optionally, in this embodiment, the signal stability may be used to, but not limited to, indicate the communication quality between the mobile terminal and the base station over a period of time. It is possible to, but not limited to, determine whether the communication quality between the target mobile terminal and the base station over a period of time meets the requirements for triggering a measurement event by detecting whether the communication quality between the target mobile terminal and the base station over a period of time meets the signal stability condition.
[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, the target mobile terminal may receive the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the connected base station in the following manner, but is not limited to this: When the movement behavior of the target mobile terminal in the connected state triggers the mobile terminal handover scenario of the target mobile terminal, the base station generates the measurement configuration, where the measurement configuration carries the event type, signal strength threshold, and signal stability threshold of the measurement event. The event type is used to indicate the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold and the threshold range corresponding to the signal stability threshold. The signal strength condition includes the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold, and the signal stability condition includes the threshold range corresponding to the signal stability threshold. The base station sends the measurement configuration to the target mobile terminal, and the target mobile terminal receives the measurement configuration.
[0048] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned movement behavior may, but is not limited to, include the target mobile terminal moving from the communication range covered by the currently connected base station to the communication range covered by another base station, thereby triggering a mobile terminal handover scenario of the target mobile terminal.
[0049] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned connected state is used to indicate that there is a terminal in a connected state with the target mobile terminal.
[0050] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned measurement configuration carries the event type of the measurement event, the signal strength threshold, and the signal stability threshold. The target mobile terminal may, but is not limited to, determine the usage method of the signal strength threshold and the signal stability threshold according to the event type of the measurement event carried in the measurement configuration. For example, taking the triggering of mobile terminal handover as an example, the base station may, but is not limited to, carry in the measurement configuration that the event type of the measurement event is mobile terminal handover, as well as the signal strength threshold and the signal stability threshold. The target mobile terminal analyzes the event type of the measurement event to determine whether the signal strength between it and the reference serving cell (the serving cell to be connected) is greater than the signal strength threshold, and whether the signal stability between it and the reference serving cell is greater than the signal stability threshold, etc.
[0051] That is to say, the signal strength threshold and the signal stability threshold are used to indicate the thresholds of the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. The event type of the measurement event may, but is not limited to, be used to indicate the conditions for the reference serving cell to meet the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. The above-mentioned conditions may, but are not limited to, include: greater than the threshold, less than the threshold, equal to the threshold, etc.
[0052] In the technical solution provided in the above step S204, the reference serving cell may, but is not limited to, include the measured serving cell. For example, the serving cell that the target mobile terminal is about to move to is determined as the above-mentioned reference serving cell. Or, the serving cell where the target mobile terminal is currently located is determined as the above-mentioned reference serving cell, etc.
[0053] Optionally, in this embodiment, the measurement configuration of the measurement event may, but is not limited to, be sent to the target mobile terminal. The target mobile terminal responds to the measurement configuration to detect the signal strength and signal stability between it and the reference serving cell, so as to determine whether the above-mentioned signal strength and signal stability meet the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the target mobile terminal may, but is not limited to, measure whether the reference serving cell corresponding to the measurement event simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition in the following manner: The target mobile terminal measures whether the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range, and measures whether the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range. Wherein, the signal strength condition includes: the signal strength of the measured serving cell falls within the signal strength range, and the signal stability condition includes that the signal stability of the measured serving cell falls within the signal stability range; When it is simultaneously measured that the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range and the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that the reference serving cell simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0055] Optionally, in this embodiment, the signal strength range and the signal stability range may be obtained by parsing the measurement configuration, but are not limited to this. The above signal strength range may be used to indicate, but is not limited to, the upper limit value, the lower limit value, the signal strength value interval, etc. of the signal strength that satisfies the signal strength condition. The above signal stability range may be used to indicate, but is not limited to, the upper limit value of the signal stability, the lower limit value of the signal stability, the signal stability value interval, etc. that satisfy the signal stability condition.
[0056] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range and the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that the reference serving cell simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, taking the measurement event as the A5 event as an example, the service cell may be measured whether it simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition in the following manner, but is not limited to this: The target mobile terminal receives the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the connected base station. The measurement configuration is used to indicate the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition that allow the mobile terminal to enter the first serving cell. The signal strength condition is the condition that the signal strength of the first serving cell satisfies when the mobile terminal is allowed to enter the first serving cell, and the signal stability condition is the condition that the signal stability of the first serving cell satisfies when the mobile terminal is allowed to enter the first serving cell. The first serving cell is the target serving cell of the target mobile terminal;
[0058] The target mobile terminal measures whether the signal strength of the first serving cell falls within the first signal strength range, measures whether the signal strength of the second serving cell falls within the second signal strength range, and measures whether the signal stability of the first serving cell falls within the signal stability range. Herein, the second serving cell is the current serving cell of the target mobile terminal. The signal strength condition includes: the signal strength of the target serving cell falls within the first signal strength range and the signal strength of the current serving cell falls within the second signal strength range. The signal stability condition includes that the signal stability of the target serving cell falls within the signal stability range. When it is simultaneously measured that the signal strength of the first serving cell falls within the first signal strength range, the signal strength of the second serving cell falls within the second signal strength range, and the signal stability of the first serving cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that it is measured that the first serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0059] When it is measured that the first serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the target mobile terminal reports a target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station.
[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the signal stability of the reference serving cell can be measured in the following manner, but is not limited thereto: extract the signal strength variance threshold from the measurement configuration, where the signal stability range includes the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold; measure the relationship between the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell and the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold; when it is measured that the signal strength variance value falls within the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, determine that it is measured that the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range.
[0061] Optionally, in this embodiment, the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold can be used as the signal stability range, but is not limited thereto.
[0062] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold is used as the signal stability range, the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell can be measured, and the relationship between the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell and the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold can be detected, so as to determine whether the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range, but is not limited thereto.
[0063] Optionally, in this embodiment, when it is measured that the signal strength variance value falls within the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, it is determined that the signal stability of the measured reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range. Alternatively, when it is measured that the signal strength variance value does not fall within the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, it is determined that the signal stability of the reference serving cell does not fall within the signal stability range.
[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the relationship between the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell and the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold can be measured in the following ways, but not limited to: measuring the signal strength of the reference serving cell and the mean value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell; calculating the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell according to the signal strength of the reference serving cell and the mean value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell; comparing the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell with the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold.
[0065] Optionally, in this embodiment, the formula E[X - E(X)]2 is used to calculate the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell, where X is used to indicate the signal strength of the reference serving cell, and E(X) is used to indicate the mean value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell.
[0066] Optionally, in this embodiment, D(X) = E[X - E(X)]2 ≤ D can be used, but not limited to Threshold As the signal stability condition, that is, comparing the signal strength variance value D(X) of the reference serving cell with the threshold range D indicated by the signal strength variance threshold Threshold where E[X - E(X)] 2 is used to indicate the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell, X is used to indicate the signal strength of the reference serving cell, E(X) is used to indicate the mean value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell, and D Threshold is used to indicate the signal strength variance threshold. When the signal strength variance value D(X) of the reference serving cell is less than or equal to the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, it is considered that the signal stability of the measured reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range.
[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, the target mobile terminal may, but is not limited to, measure whether the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition in the following manner: The target mobile terminal monitors the starting moment when the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition; the target mobile terminal may, but is not limited to, trigger the measurement event and report the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station in the following manner: when the starting moment is monitored, the target mobile terminal triggers the measurement event; the target mobile terminal measures the duration during which the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition starting from the starting moment; when the duration reaches the duration threshold carried in the measurement configuration, the target mobile terminal generates the target measurement report; the target mobile terminal reports the target measurement report to the base station.
[0068] Optionally, in this embodiment, the moment when the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition may be determined as the starting moment, or the moment after waiting for the reference serving cell to simultaneously meet the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition and maintain the satisfaction of the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition for a period of time may be determined as the starting moment, etc.
[0069] Optionally, in this embodiment, trigger the measurement event at the starting moment and measure the duration during which the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. It may, but is not limited to, when the duration reaches the duration threshold carried in the measurement configuration, the target mobile terminal generates the target measurement report, and the target mobile terminal reports the target measurement report to the base station.
[0070] Optionally, in this embodiment, the above duration threshold may, but is not limited to, be a preset fixed value, or determined according to the communication situation between the target mobile terminal and the reference serving cell.
[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of measuring whether a reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition is provided. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a process for measuring whether a reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition according to an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 3 shown, it may, but is not limited to, measure whether the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition through the following steps:
[0072] The base station generates a measurement configuration and sends the measurement configuration to the target mobile terminal.
[0073] When the target mobile terminal receives a measurement configuration, perform the following steps to measure whether the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range:

[0077] Step S308: The target mobile terminal compares the signal strength variance value of the reference serving cell with the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold;
[0078] Step S310: When it is measured that the signal strength variance value falls within the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, it is determined that the measured signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range.
[0079] When the target mobile terminal receives a measurement configuration, the target mobile terminal is also used to measure whether the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range;
[0080] When it is simultaneously measured that the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range and the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0081] In the technical solution provided in the above step S206, when the reference serving cell simultaneously meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the target mobile terminal can be used, but is not limited to, triggering a measurement event and reporting a target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station.
[0082] In an exemplary embodiment, the target mobile terminal can be used, but is not limited to, reporting the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station in the following manner: The target mobile terminal detects whether the current reporting time interval has ended, where the reporting time interval is carried in the measurement configuration, and the reporting time interval is used to instruct the target mobile terminal to report the measurement report of the measurement event according to the reporting time interval; when it is detected that the current reporting time interval has ended, the target mobile terminal reports the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event in the current reporting time interval to the base station.
[0083] Optionally, in this embodiment, it is possible but not limited to carry the reporting time interval in the measurement configuration, and the target mobile terminal uses the reporting time interval to determine the time for the target mobile terminal to report the measurement event to the base station and the target measurement report to be reported.
[0084] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of a signal strength condition and a signal stability condition is provided. Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of a signal strength condition and a signal stability condition according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 4 shown, taking the measurement event as an A5 measurement event and the reference serving cell as the serving cell that the target mobile terminal is about to reach as an example, the movement behavior of the target mobile terminal in the connected state triggers the mobile terminal handover scenario of the target mobile terminal, and the base station generates an event type and a signal strength condition carrying the measurement event, which may but are not limited to including the following:
[0085] Entering condition 1; / / Event type: Entering condition 1;
[0086] Mp + Hys < Thresh1; / / The sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is less than the signal strength threshold 1;
[0087] Entering condition 2; / / Event type: Entering condition 2;
[0088] Mn + Ofn + Ocn - Hys > Thresh2; / / The difference between the sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the reference serving cell, the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the reference serving cell, and the specific offset of the reference serving cell and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is greater than the signal strength threshold 2;
[0089] Leaving condition 1; / / Event type: Leaving condition 1;
[0090] Mp - Hys > Thresh1; / / The difference between the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is greater than the signal strength threshold 1;
[0091] Leaving condition 2; / / Event type: Leaving condition 2;
[0092] Mn + Ofn + Ocn + Hys < Thresh2; / / The sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the reference serving cell, the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the reference serving cell, the specific offset of the reference serving cell and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is less than the signal strength threshold 2;
[0093] Among them, Mp represents the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located, which can be but is not limited to the set range [1 - 127]. Mn represents the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the reference serving cell, which can be but is not limited to the set range [1 - 127]. Hys represents the hysteresis value of the measurement event. Thresh1 and Thresh2 respectively represent the signal strength threshold 1 and signal strength threshold 2 of the measurement event. Ofn and Ocn respectively represent the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the reference serving cell and the specific offset of the reference serving cell.
[0094] The event type carried in the measurement configuration is used to indicate the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold. The signal strength condition includes falling within the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold. For different event types, the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold can be but is not limited to being different. For example, taking the signal strength threshold Thresh1 as an example, for entry condition 1, Mp + Hys < Thresh1 means that the sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is less than the signal strength threshold Thresh1, determining that it falls within the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold 1. Or, for departure condition 1, Mp - Hys > Thresh1 means that the difference between the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is greater than the signal strength threshold Thresh1, determining that it falls within the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold 1, etc.
[0095] It is possible to but is not limited to adding a signal stability condition for measuring the signal stability of the reference serving cell based on the above event type and signal strength condition of the measurement event. The signal stability condition includes:
[0096] Entering condition 3; / / Event type: Entry condition 3;
[0097] D(X) = E[X - E(X)]2 ≤ D Threshold ;
[0098] Among them, X represents the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal, which can be but is not limited to the set range [1 - 127]. E(X) represents the mean value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal. D(X) represents the variance value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal, which is used to measure the signal stability of the reference serving cell. D Threshold represents the variance threshold of the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal, that is, the signal stability threshold.
[0099] When the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal within a certain period of time meets the original measurement condition threshold, and the variance value of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal within the same time period is less than or equal to the variance threshold D Threshold it is considered that the stability of the reference serving cell meets the expected value to a certain extent, that is, the variance threshold D Threshold At this time, the target mobile terminal will report the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event, triggering the subsequent process of the base station.
[0100] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of a measurement configuration is provided. Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of a measurement configuration according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 5 shown, taking the A5 measurement event as an example, the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the base station connected to the target mobile terminal may include but is not limited to:
[0101]
[0102] Among them, a5-Threshold1 and a5-Threshold2 respectively represent the signal strength condition 1 and signal strength condition 2 corresponding to the A5 measurement event, and MeasTriggerQuantity represents the event type corresponding to this configuration parameter. In the NR system, the event type may include but is not limited to: rsrp, rsrq, and sinr. Hysteresis represents the hysteresis value of this measurement event, and timeToTrigger represents the time required to continuously meet the threshold condition of this measurement event.
[0103] On this basis, a new threshold for measuring the stability of the target serving cell, that is, the variance threshold, is added. Therefore, the measurement configuration is updated to:
[0104]
[0105]
[0106] a5-DThreshold MeasTriggerQuantity represents the signal stability condition corresponding to the A5 measurement event.
[0107] When the sum of the signal strength value of the current serving cell detected by the target mobile terminal and the hysteresis value is lower than Thersh1, it means that during the movement of the target mobile terminal, the signal value of the current serving cell has decayed to a certain extent. At the same time, when the sum of the signal value of the target serving cell, the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the working frequency point of the target serving cell, and the difference between the specific offset of the target serving cell and the hysteresis value corresponding to this measurement event is higher than thresh2, it indicates that the target mobile terminal has moved from the current serving cell to the target serving cell.
[0108] Based on the original two conditions for entering measurement, a third measurement condition for determining whether the target mobile terminal enters is added. When the variance corresponding to the signal value of the target serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal is lower than the variance threshold DThreshold, it indicates that the signal of the target serving cell has a certain stability. At this time, the target mobile terminal satisfies all three measurement conditions for entering measurement, and then the measurement is started. During the time period of timeToTrigger, if the signal conditions of the current serving cell and the target serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal continuously meet the three conditions for entering measurement, the terminal will report the measurement report corresponding to the measurement event.
[0109] If the signal conditions of the serving cell and the target serving cell measured by the terminal during the time period of timeToTrigger do not meet one of the three conditions for entering measurement, the target mobile terminal will exit this measurement and wait to continue the measurement when the three conditions for entering measurement are subsequently met.
[0110] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of a method for measuring whether a reference serving cell meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition is provided. Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of a method for measuring whether a reference serving cell meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 6 shown, a5-Threshold1 is set to RSRP = -85dBm, a5-Threshold2 is set to RSRP = -80dBm, the hysteresis value corresponding to this measurement event is 0, the specific offset corresponding to the target serving cell and the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the working frequency point of the target serving cell are also 0, the variance threshold is set to a5-DThreshold = 0.5, and the set duration timeToTrigger = 240ms. When the target mobile terminal measures that the RSRP of the current serving cell is lower than -85dBm and the RSRP of the target serving cell is higher than -80dBm, and at the same time the signal variance value of the target serving cell is lower than 0.5, all three conditions need to be met simultaneously for the target mobile terminal to enter the A5 measurement stage. The specific configuration is as follows:
[0111] a5-Threshold1(rsrp): -85dBm;
[0112] a5-Threshold12(rsrp): -80dBm;
[0113] a5-DThreshold: 0.5;
[0114] timeToTrigger = 240ms;
[0115] rsType: ssb;
[0116] reportInterval: 240 ms;
[0117] reportAmout: 1;
[0118] reportQualtityCell: rsrp;
[0119] maxReportCell: 4;
[0120] Among them, rsType represents the type of measurement reference signal, including two types: ssb and csi-rs. reportInterval represents the time interval between consecutive measurement reports, and the reporting time intervals include 120 ms, 240 ms, 480 ms, 640 ms, 1.024 s, 2.048 s, 5.12 s, 10.24 s, 40.96 s, 1 min, 6 min, 12 min, 30 min. reportAmout represents the number of times the measurement report is sent, including 1 time, 2 times, 4 times, 8 times, 16 times, 32 times, 64 times, and an infinite number of times. reportQualtityCell represents the measurement result type value option included in the measurement event report, including three types: rsrp, rsrq, and sinr. maxReportCell represents the maximum number of cells included in the measurement report.
[0121] If the signal strength values of the current serving cell and the target serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal within the continuous time period of timeToTrigger are -90 dBm and -75 dBm respectively, and the signal variance value of the target serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal is 0.4, then the target mobile terminal will report the measurement report corresponding to this measurement event. Otherwise, no measurement report will be reported within this time period, and it is necessary to continue measuring in the next time period to determine whether to enter the measurement condition.
[0122] By adding the condition of the variance threshold, the influence of the signal fluctuation of the target serving cell can be considered during the terminal measurement process, avoiding problems such as handover failure caused by large signal fluctuations of the target serving cell or unstable terminal connection after handover to the target serving cell, and improving the handover success rate and user experience.
