[0066] The application environment of the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is described below.

[0067] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a communication system according to some embodiments. As shown in Figure 1 , communication system 100 includes user equipment 101 and network equipment 102. It should be noted that the number of user equipment 101 and network equipment 102 shown in Figure 1 is merely an example and does not constitute a limitation on the embodiments of the present disclosure. In actual practice, there may be one or more user equipment 101 and one or more network equipment 102.

[0068] In some embodiments, the communication system 100 is, for example, a long term evolution (LTE) system, a fifth generation (5G) mobile communication system, a 5G new radio (NR) system, or other future communication systems, but is not limited thereto.

[0069] In some embodiments, the user device 101 may include at least one of a mobile phone, a wearable device, an Internet of Things device, a car with communication capabilities, a smart car, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver capabilities, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in self-driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical surgery, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, and a wireless terminal device in a smart home, but is not limited thereto.

[0070] In some embodiments, the network device 102 may include at least one of an access network device and a core network device.

[0071] In some embodiments, the network device 102 may include an evolved NodeB (eNB), a next generation NodeB (gNB) in a new radio (NR) system, a base station in other future communication systems, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0072] In the communication system 100, the network device 102 sends a measurement configuration to the user equipment 101, and the user equipment 101 performs measurement according to the measurement configuration. The measurement configuration includes a measurement object, a report configuration, and a quantity configuration.

[0073] The measurement object indicates the frequency to be measured and can include multiple access technologies, including NR and LTE. Each measurement object is bound to a measurement object index identifier (measObject ID). The reporting configuration indicates the type of reporting by the user equipment, including periodic reporting or event-based reporting. Different reporting configurations can be used for measurement objects of different access technologies, and each reporting configuration is bound to a reporting configuration index identifier (reportconfig ID).

[0074] In one example, the event-based reporting configuration may provide one or more of the following configurations:

[0075] The signal type that triggers the report, including RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power), RSRQ (Reference Signal Receiving Quality), or SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio);

[0076] Threshold or bias;

[0077] The type of measurement result reported, including RSRP, RSRQ or SINR.

[0078] In some embodiments, the user equipment compares the relationship between the measurement results of the serving cell or the neighboring cell, or the relationship between the measurement result and the threshold, and triggers measurement reporting if the threshold requirement is met. In one example, the measurement reporting includes event-based reporting and periodic reporting.

[0079] In one example, event-based reporting includes A1-A6 events, B1-B2 events, D1 events, T1 events, etc. Among them, the A series events are used for intra-system mobility management, the B series events are used for inter-system mobility management, and the D1 events and T1 events are used for satellite system mobility management.

[0080] For example, a series of events looks like this:

[0081] Event A1: the serving cell becomes better than the threshold;

[0082] Event A2: The serving cell becomes worse than the threshold;

[0083] Event A3: The neighboring cell becomes better than the offset of Pcell (Primary Cell) / PSCell (Primary Secondary Cell);

[0084] Event A4: The neighboring cell becomes better than the threshold;

[0085] Event A5: The PCell / PSCell becomes worse than Threshold 1 and the neighboring cell becomes better than Threshold 2;

[0086] Event A6: The neighboring cell becomes better than the offset of the Scell (Secondary Cell).

[0087] For each event, entry conditions and exit conditions are defined separately. When the entry condition is not satisfied, the user equipment evaluates the entry condition of this event. For an event with a satisfied entry condition, the user equipment evaluates the exit condition of this event. When the entry condition or the exit condition of this event is satisfied, a measurement report can be triggered.

[0088] The following takes Event A3 as an example:

[0089] For Event A3, the inequality A3 1 (entry condition) is Mn + Ofn + Ocn – Hys > Mp + Ofp + Ocp + Off, and the inequality A3 2 (exit condition) is Mn + Ofn + Ocn + Hys < Mp + Ofp + Ocp + Off. Mn can be the measurement result of the neighboring cell without considering any offset. Ofn can be the measurement object specific offset of the reference signal of the neighboring cell (e.g., offsetMO defined in measObjectNR corresponding to the neighboring cell). Ocn can be the specific offset of the neighboring cell (e.g., cellIndividualOffset defined in measObjectNR corresponding to the frequency of the neighboring cell), which is set to zero if not configured for the neighboring cell. Mp can be the measurement result of the SpCell without considering any offset. Ofp can be the measurement object specific offset of the SpCell (i.e., offsetMO defined in measObjectNR corresponding to the SpCell). Ocp is the cell specific offset of the SpCell (i.e., cellIndividualOffset defined in measObjectNR corresponding to the SpCell), which is set to zero if not configured for the SpCell. Hys can be the hysteresis parameter for this event (e.g., hysteresis defined for this event in reportConfigNR for this event). Off can be the offset parameter for this event (e.g., a3Offset defined in reportConfigNR for this event). The units of Mn and Mp are expressed in dBm in the case of RSRP, and in dB in the case of RSRQ and RS SINR. The units of Ofn, Ocn, Ofp, Ocp, Hys, and Off can be expressed in dB.

[0090] After triggering the measurement report, the user equipment will send the identifier and measurement result of the cell that triggered the reporting event, and / or the identifiers and measurement results of the N cells with the best measurement results to the network device.

[0091] FIG2 is a flow chart of a measurement reporting method according to some embodiments. Referring to FIG2 , the measurement reporting method is applied to a user equipment and includes the following steps:

[0092] S201: Obtain a first measurement result, where the first measurement result is a measurement result of a first target.

[0093] In some embodiments, the first measurement result is a measurement result obtained by the user equipment measuring the first target.

[0094] S202: Predict a second measurement result based on the first measurement result, where the second measurement result is a measurement result of a second target.

[0095] S203: Send the second measurement result to the network device.

[0096] In some embodiments, the first target and the second target may be cells, or beams of cells.

[0097] In some embodiments, the first measurement result and the second measurement result may be an RSRP value, an RSRQ value, or an SINR value of a cell or a beam.

[0098] In some embodiments, the user equipment may measure the first cell to obtain a measurement result of the first cell, and predict a measurement result of the second cell based on the measurement result of the first cell, i.e., obtain a second measurement result. That is, the user equipment does not need to measure the second cell.

[0099] In some embodiments, the user equipment may measure the first beam to obtain a measurement result of the first beam, and predict a measurement result of the second beam based on the measurement result of the first beam, i.e., obtain a second measurement result. That is, the user equipment does not need to measure the second beam.

[0100] According to the above technical solution, the user equipment can predict the measurement result of the second target based on the measurement result of the first target, obtain the second measurement result, and perform measurement reporting based on the second measurement result. Therefore, there is no need to receive the reference signal of the second target and there is no need to measure the second target, thereby reducing the number of measurements and reducing the power required for the user equipment to measure.

[0101] It is understandable that the measurement reporting by the user equipment may be triggered based on an event or may be triggered periodically.

[0102] In some embodiments, the first target and the second target may be different cells on the same frequency; or the first target and the second target may be different cells on different frequencies. The first target and the second target may be at different frequencies.

[0103] In some embodiments, the first target and the second target may be different beams of the same cell; or the first target and the second target may be different beams of different cells. The first target and the second target may be in different cells. The first target and the second target may be at different frequencies.

[0104] In some embodiments, the first target and the second target may be indicated by a measurement object. The network device may send a measurement configuration to the user equipment, the measurement configuration including a measurement object, the measurement object indicating a frequency to be measured and / or indicating a cell to be measured (measurement target cell). The measurement object may include a first measurement object and may also include a second measurement object, the first measurement object indicating measurement of a first cell on a first frequency to be measured, and the second measurement object indicating measurement of a second cell on a second frequency to be measured.

[0105] In other embodiments, the first target may be indicated by the measurement object, and the second target may not be indicated by the measurement object.

[0106] In some embodiments, based on the first measurement result, the second measurement result can be predicted using an AI (Artificial Intelligence) model. In the present disclosure, the AI ​​model can be obtained through a large amount of training data, and the AI ​​model can accurately predict the second measurement result by using the first measurement result as input.

[0107] In some embodiments, based on the first configuration, the second measurement result is predicted according to the first measurement result. The first configuration may be sent by the network device to the user equipment.

[0108] FIG3 is a flow chart of a measurement reporting method according to some embodiments. Referring to FIG3 , the measurement reporting method is applied to a user equipment and includes the following steps:

[0109] S301: Receive a first configuration sent by a network device.

[0110] S302: Based on the first configuration, predict a second measurement result according to the first measurement result.

[0111] In some embodiments, the first configuration may include at least one of the following:

[0112] allowing the user equipment to predict the second measurement result based on the first measurement result, or not allowing the user equipment to predict the second measurement result based on the first measurement result;

[0113] the correspondence between the first and second objectives;

[0114] the type of the first measurement result;

[0115] The type of the second measurement result.

[0116] For example, assuming that the correspondence between the first target and the second target includes "cell E-cell A", the user equipment can predict the second measurement result of cell A according to the first measurement result of cell E based on the first configuration.

[0117] The type of the first measurement result may be RSRP, RSRQ or SINR.

[0118] The type of the second measurement result may be RSRP, RSRQ or SINR.

[0119] According to the above technical solution, the user equipment can predict the second measurement result according to the first measurement result based on the first configuration sent by the network device.

[0120] In some embodiments, based on the first configuration and according to the first measurement result, the second measurement result can be predicted by an AI model.

[0121] FIG4 is a flow chart of a measurement reporting method according to some embodiments. Referring to FIG4 , the measurement reporting method is applied to a user equipment and includes the following steps:

[0122] S401, determine first information, where the first information is used by a network device to determine a first configuration.

[0123] S402: Send first information to the network device.

[0124] According to the above technical solution, the user equipment can send the first information to the network equipment so that the network equipment can determine the first configuration. Of course, the network equipment can also directly determine the first configuration without the first information.

[0125] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0126] The user equipment supports the predicted cells or beams;

[0127] The user equipment supports the type of predicted measurement results.

[0128] The type of the measurement result supported for prediction by the user equipment may be RSRP, RSRQ or SINR.

[0129] In some embodiments, the user equipment may determine the first information according to the measurement configuration sent by the network device.

[0130] For example, the network device sends a measurement configuration to the user equipment. The user equipment determines the cells or beams that support prediction based on the measurement configuration. For example, the user equipment determines that cell A, cell B, and cell C can be predicted based on its own capabilities. And / or the user equipment determines the type of measurement results that support prediction based on the measurement configuration, for example, the supported prediction type is RSRP, thereby determining first information and sending the first information to the network device. The network device determines a first configuration based on the first information and then sends the first configuration to the user equipment.

[0131] FIG5 is a flow chart of a measurement reporting method according to some embodiments. Referring to FIG5 , the measurement reporting method is applied to a user equipment and includes the following steps:

[0132] S501: Obtain a first measurement result, where the first measurement result is a measurement result of a first target.

[0133] S502: Predict a second measurement result based on the first measurement result, where the second measurement result is a measurement result of a second target.

[0134] S503: Send the second measurement result that meets the reporting condition to the network device.

[0135] In some embodiments, according to the measurement configuration, the user equipment may trigger the measurement report based on an event, or periodically trigger the measurement report. When performing the measurement report, the user equipment sends a second measurement result that meets the reporting condition to the network device.

[0136] In some embodiments, the reporting condition includes at least one of the following:

[0137] Event-based entry or exit conditions;

[0138] The second target is a cell, and the second measurement result is a measurement result of a cell that meets the first preset condition at the frequency of the second target;

[0139] The second target is a beam, and the second measurement result is a beam measurement result that satisfies a second preset condition on a cell where the second target is located;

[0140] The second target is the measurement target cell;

[0141] The second goal is to measure the beam of the target cell;

[0142] The second target is the measurement target beam.

[0143] In some embodiments, the first preset condition may indicate that the second measurement result is the best measurement result among the measurement results of multiple cells on the frequency where the second target is located, or may indicate that the second measurement result is the best top N measurement results among the measurement results of multiple cells on the frequency where the second target is located.

[0144] In some embodiments, the second preset condition may indicate that the second measurement result is the best measurement result among the measurement results of multiple beams of the cell where the second target is located, or may indicate that the second measurement result is the best top M measurement results among the measurement results of multiple beams of the cell where the second target is located.

[0145] The measurement target cell is a cell that needs to be measured and is indicated by the network device in the measurement configuration.

[0146] The measurement target beam is the beam that needs to be measured indicated by the network device in the measurement configuration.

[0147] In some embodiments, the measurement configuration includes a reporting configuration, where the reporting configuration is used to indicate a type of reporting by the user equipment, including event-based reporting or periodic reporting.

[0148] Take event-based measurement reporting as an example:

[0149] In some embodiments, the user equipment evaluates an event based on the second measurement result. When an entry condition of the event is met, measurement reporting can be triggered. When performing measurement reporting, the user equipment sends the second measurement result that meets the entry condition of the event to the network device.

[0150] In some embodiments, the user equipment evaluates an event based on the second measurement result. When the exit condition of the event is met, measurement reporting can be triggered. When performing measurement reporting, the user equipment sends the second measurement result that meets the exit condition of the event to the network device.

[0151] In some embodiments, when performing measurement reporting, in addition to sending the second measurement result that meets the entry condition or exit condition of the event to the network device, the user equipment may also send the best cell measurement result among the measurement results of multiple cells on the frequency where the second target is located, that is, the second measurement result that meets the first preset condition.

[0152] In some embodiments, when performing measurement reporting, in addition to sending the second measurement result that meets the entry condition or exit condition of the event to the network device, the user device can also send the best beam measurement result among the measurement results of multiple beams of the cell where the second target is located, that is, the second measurement result that meets the second preset condition.

[0153] Take periodic reporting as an example:

[0154] In some embodiments, the user equipment periodically triggers measurement reporting. When performing measurement reporting, the user equipment may send at least one of the following measurement results to the network device:

[0155] The best cell measurement result among the measurement results of multiple cells on the frequency where the second target is located, that is, the second measurement result that meets the first preset condition;

[0156] The best beam measurement result among the measurement results of multiple beams of the cell where the second target is located, that is, the second measurement result that meets the second preset condition;

[0157] a second measurement result of measuring the target cell;

[0158] a second measurement result of measuring the beam of the target cell;

[0193] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0195] The user equipment supports the type of predicted measurement results.

[0197] For example, the network device sends a measurement configuration to the user equipment. The user equipment determines the cells or beams that support prediction based on the measurement configuration. For example, the user equipment determines that cell A, cell B, and cell C can be predicted based on its own capabilities. And / or the user equipment determines the type of measurement results that support prediction based on the measurement configuration, for example, the supported prediction type is RSRP, thereby determining first information and sending the first information to the network device. The network device determines a first configuration based on the first information and then sends the first configuration to the user equipment.

[0198] In some embodiments, according to the measurement configuration, the user equipment may trigger measurement reporting based on an event, or periodically trigger measurement reporting. When performing measurement reporting, the user equipment may send a second measurement result that meets the reporting condition to the network device.

[0215] In some embodiments, the network device receives a second measurement result sent by the user equipment and a first measurement result used to predict the second measurement result.

[0216] In some embodiments, the network device may verify the second measurement result based on the first measurement result. For example, if the verification finds that the second measurement result predicted based on the first measurement result is incorrect, the network device may make corresponding adjustments, such as instructing the user equipment to replace the first measurement result used to predict the second measurement result and re-predict the second measurement result.

[0217] In some embodiments, the network device receives the second measurement result and the confidence value of the second measurement result sent by the user equipment. Optionally, the AI ​​model can output the corresponding confidence value when outputting the second measurement result.

[0218] In some embodiments, the network device may determine whether to trust the second measurement result based on the confidence value of the second measurement result. Optionally, the network device may perform mobility management on the user equipment based on whether to trust the second measurement result.

[0219] For example, a network device receives a second measurement result reported by a user device, where the second measurement result is the best measurement result among measurement results of multiple cells on a certain frequency. If it is determined based on a confidence value that the second measurement result is believed, the network device may switch the user device to the cell of the measurement result. If it is determined based on the confidence value that the second measurement result is not believed, cell switching may not be performed.
