The present application does not limit the protocol type.

[0051] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions of the present application are described in detail below through specific embodiments. The following related technologies can be combined with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application as optional solutions, and they all fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present application. The embodiments of the present application include at least part of the following contents.

[0052] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication system applicable to embodiments of the present application. Transmission resources for vehicle-mounted terminals (vehicle-mounted terminal 121 and vehicle-mounted terminal 122) are allocated by base station 110. The vehicle-mounted terminals transmit data on the sidelink based on the resources allocated by base station 110. Specifically, base station 110 can allocate resources for a single transmission to a terminal, or it can allocate resources for semi-static transmission to the terminal.

[0053] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of another communication system applicable to an embodiment of the present application. Vehicle-mounted terminals (vehicle-mounted terminal 131 and vehicle-mounted terminal 132) autonomously select transmission resources on the sidelink for data transmission. Alternatively, the vehicle-mounted terminals can select transmission resources randomly or through interception.

[0054] It should be noted that the IoV system uses direct end-to-end communication, resulting in higher spectrum efficiency and lower transmission latency. 3GPP defines two transmission modes: Mode 1 (sidelink resource allocation mode 1) and Mode 2 (sidelink resource allocation mode 2).

[0055] Mode 1: The terminal's transmission resources are allocated by the base station. The terminal transmits data on the sidelink based on the allocated resources. The base station can allocate resources for either single transmission or semi-static transmission. As shown in Figure 1, when the terminal is within network coverage, the network allocates transmission resources for sidelink transmission.

[0056] Mode 2: The terminal selects a resource from the resource pool for data transmission. As shown in Figure 2, when the terminal is outside the cell coverage area, the terminal autonomously selects a transmission resource from the pre-configured resource pool for sideline transmission; or the terminal autonomously selects a transmission resource from the network-configured resource pool for sideline transmission.

[0057] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the following describes the terms related to the present application.

[0058] Proximity-based Services (ProSe): device-to-device communication, mainly for public safety services.

[0059] In ProSe, by configuring the position of the resource pool in the time domain, for example, the resource pool is discontinuous in the time domain, the terminal device can transmit / receive data discontinuously on the side link, thereby achieving power saving.

[0060] Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) systems are primarily designed for relatively high-speed vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian communications. In V2X, power efficiency is less of a concern due to the continuous power supply provided by the onboard system, while data transmission latency is. Therefore, the system design requires continuous transmission and reception by terminal devices.

[0061] Wearable devices (FeD2D): correspond to scenarios where wearable devices access the network through mobile phones, and are mainly aimed at scenarios with low mobile speeds and low power access.

[0062] In FeD2D, the base station can configure the discontinuous reception (DRX) parameters of the remote terminal through a relay terminal.

[0063] Multi-carrier: In Long Term Evolution-Vehicle to Everything (LTE V2X), a multi-carrier mechanism was introduced. Specifically, the multi-carrier mechanism can support packet segmentation, transmitting packets using multiple carriers to improve data transmission rates; packet replication, duplicating the same packet twice and sending them using two carriers to improve transmission reliability; and multi-carrier reception enhancement at the receiving end. Specifically, regarding packet replication: V2X sidelink communication supports sidelink packet replication, which is performed at the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer of the terminal device. For sidelink packet replication for transmission, the PDCP Protocol Data Unit (PDU) is replicated at the PDCP entity. The replicated PDCP PDUs of the same PDCP entity are submitted to two different Radio Link Control (RLC) entities and associated with two different sidelink logical channels. The replicated PDCP PDUs of the same PDCP entity are only allowed to be transmitted on different sidelink carriers. The terminal device can activate or deactivate sidelink packet replication based on (pre-)configuration. Sidelink packet replication is not applicable for transmissions with transport profiles. The ProSe Per-Packet Reliability (PPPR) value for supporting sidelink packet replication can be (pre-)configured via a PPPR threshold. For terminal device autonomous resource selection and scheduled resource allocation, the terminal device shall perform sidelink packet replication for data with configured PPPR values ​​until the packet replication configuration is canceled for these PPPR values. For scheduled resource allocation, the terminal device reports the amount of data associated with one or more PPPR values ​​and the destination to which the data belongs via a sideline Buffer Status Report (BSR). The mapping of PPPR values ​​to logical channel groups can be configured by the eNB and the PPPR value is reflected by the associated logical channel group identity (ID) included in the sideline BSR. A list of one or more PPPR values ​​can be reported by a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connected terminal device in the sideline terminal information.

[0064] New Radio-Vehicle to Everything (NR-V2X), based on LTE V2X, is not limited to broadcast scenarios, but further expanded to unicast and multicast scenarios.

[0065] Similar to LTE V2X, NR V2X will also define two resource authorization modes: Mode 1 (i.e., the first mode) and Mode 2 (i.e., the second mode). Furthermore, a user may be in a mixed mode, that is, they can use Mode 1 to acquire resources while also using Mode 2. The resource acquisition is indicated by a sidelink grant, that is, the sidelink grant indicates the time-frequency position of the corresponding Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH) and Physical Sidelink Shared Channel (PSSCH) resources.

[0066] Unlike LTE V2X, in addition to the feedback-free, terminal-initiated Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) retransmission, NR V2X introduces feedback-based HARQ retransmission, which is not limited to unicast communication but also includes multicast communication. Similar to LTE V2X, in NR V2X, since the on-board system has continuous power supply, power efficiency is not the main issue, but data transmission latency is the main issue. Therefore, the system design requires terminal devices to perform continuous transmission and reception.

[0067] Similar to LTE V2X, in NR V2X, power efficiency is not a major issue because the on-board system has continuous power supply, but data transmission latency is the main issue. Therefore, the system design requires terminal devices to perform continuous transmission and reception.

[0068] In sidelink communications, the terminal triggers the sidelink Radio Resource Control (RRC) reconfiguration process in the following scenarios:

[0069] Release sidelink data bearer in unicast communication;

[0070] Establishing a sidelink data bearer in unicast communication;

[0071] Modify the relevant configuration of the sidelink data bearer in unicast communication;

[0072] In the terminal-to-network relay scenario, the PC5 relay RLC channel between the Layer 2 relay terminal and the remote terminal is released;

[0073] In the terminal-to-network relay scenario, a PC5 relay RLC channel is established between the Layer 2 relay terminal and the remote terminal;

[0074] In a terminal-to-network relay scenario, modify the configuration parameters related to the PC5 relay RLC channel between the Layer 2 relay terminal and the remote terminal;

[0075] Reconfiguration of NR sidelink measurement reporting related parameters;

[0076] Reconfiguration of sidelink channel state information (CSI) reference signal resources and CSI reporting delay bounds;

[0077] Reconfigure the line link discontinuous reception (DRX) on the opposite terminal side.

[0078] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the terminal-to-network relay related to the present application is explained.

[0079] In the NR system, terminal-to-network relay is limited to the scenario where a remote terminal under the same base station switches between a sidelink relay link (i.e., a link where the remote terminal accesses the network through a relay terminal) and a Uu link (i.e., a link where the remote terminal directly accesses the network). In the NR evolution, mechanisms to enhance single-hop Layer-2 (L2) terminal-to-network (UE to Network, U2N) relay service continuity are specified for the following scenarios, with the following four new scenarios added:

[0080] Inter-gNB indirect-to-direct path switching (e.g., remote terminal <-> relay terminal A <-> gNB X to remote terminal <-> gNB Y);

[0081] Inter-gNB direct-to-direct path switching (e.g., remote terminal <-> gNB X to remote terminal <-> relay terminal A <-> gNB Y);

[0082] Intra-gNB indirect-to-indirect path switching (e.g., remote terminal <-> relay terminal A <-> gNB X) to remote terminal <-> relay terminal B <-> gNB X);

[0083] Inter-gNB indirect-to-indirect path switching (e.g., remote terminal <-> relay terminal A <-> gNB X) to remote terminal <-> relay terminal B <-> gNB Y).

[0084] In addition, measurement reporting events such as event X1, event X2, event Y1 and event Y2 are introduced for the remote terminal to switch between the side relay link (i.e., the link through which the remote terminal accesses the network through the relay terminal) and the Uu link (i.e., the link through which the remote terminal directly accesses the network).

[0142] Entry conditions for event Y2: satisfy the following condition Y2-1;

[0143] Exit condition of event Y2: satisfy the following condition Y2-2.

[0144] Inequality Y2-1 (entry condition Y2-1): Mr–Hys>second threshold.

[0145] Inequality Y2-2 (exit condition Y2-2): Mr+Hys<second threshold value.

[0146] Mr represents the measurement result of the candidate relay terminal in L2 U2N, without considering any offset;

[0147] Hys represents a hysteresis parameter for event Y2 (for example, a hysteresis parameter configured for event Y2 in the measurement report configuration outside the RAT (reportConfigInterRAT);

[0148] Threshold represents a threshold for event Y2 (eg, y2-threshold-relay, a threshold configured for event Y2 in the inter-RAT measurement report configuration (reportConfigInterRAT));

[0149] The unit of Mr is decibel milliwatt (dBm) or decibel (dB) and is determined based on the measured quality of the candidate relay terminals in L2 U2N.

[0150] The unit of Hys is dB.

[0151] The unit of the threshold is the same as that of Mr.

[0152] Based on the switching of the remote terminal between the side relay link (i.e., the link through which the remote terminal accesses the network through the relay terminal) and the side relay link (i.e., the link through which the remote terminal accesses the network through the relay terminal) introduced in the NR evolution, this application designs a new measurement event, so that the remote terminal can report the measurement results based on the configured measurement event, and then the network device can determine whether to perform switching between relay links based on the reported measurement results.

[0153] The technical solution of this application is described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0154] FIG3 is a schematic flowchart of a wireless communication method 300 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG3 , the wireless communication method 300 may include at least part of the following contents:

[0155] S310: The communication device sends first information; wherein the first information is used to configure at least one measurement event, where the at least one measurement event is a measurement event for switching between a first relay link and a second relay link, where both the first relay link and the second relay link are links through which a remote terminal accesses a network via a relay terminal;

[0156] S320: The remote terminal receives the first information.

[0157] In an embodiment of the present application, the remote terminal may report a measurement result based on at least one measurement event, and the network device may determine whether to perform switching between relay links based on the reported measurement result.

[0158] For example, when some or all of the measurement events in at least one measurement event trigger the reporting of measurement results, the remote terminal can report the measurement results to the network device, and the network device determines whether to perform switching between the first relay link (such as the source relay link) and the second relay link (such as the target relay link) based on the measurement results.

[0159] In some embodiments, the first information may include entry conditions and / or exit conditions for the at least one measurement event. That is, the communications device configures the at least one measurement event by including the entry conditions and / or exit conditions for the at least one measurement event in the first information. In other words, the remote terminal can determine the at least one measurement event configured by the network device based on the obtained entry conditions and / or exit conditions for the at least one measurement event.

[0160] It should be noted that, for a certain measurement event, the remote terminal reports the measurement result when the admission condition is met, and does not perform measurement result reporting or does not report the measurement result when the exit condition is met.

[0161] In some embodiments, the measurement result corresponding to the at least one measurement event may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), and signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR).

[0162] In some embodiments, the switching between the first relay link and the second relay link is an indirect-to-indirect path switching, i.e., the remote terminal switches between indirect paths. In an indirect path, the remote terminal accesses the network through a relay terminal. A specific example is an intra-gNB indirect-to-indirect path switching (e.g., switching from remote terminal <-> relay terminal A <-> gNB X to remote terminal <-> relay terminal B <-> gNB X). Another specific example is an inter-gNB indirect-to-indirect path switching (e.g., switching from remote terminal <-> relay terminal A <-> gNB X to remote terminal <-> relay terminal B <-> gNB Y).

[0163] In some embodiments, the communication device may be a network device or a service relay terminal. That is, the at least one measurement event may be configured by the network device, or the at least one measurement event may be configured by the service relay terminal. For example, if the at least one measurement event is configured by the network device, the first information may be forwarded to the remote terminal by the service relay terminal.

[0164] In some embodiments, when the communication device is a network device, the first information can be carried by at least one of the following: Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, downlink control information (DCI), and a system broadcast message.

[0165] For example, when the first information is carried through RRC signaling, the first information may be one or more information fields in the RRC signaling (which may be a newly designed information field or a reused existing information field), or the first information may be one or more fields in an information field in the RRC signaling (which may be a newly designed field or a reused existing field).

[0166] For example, when the first information is carried by DCI, the first information may be one or more information fields in the DCI (which may be a newly designed information field or a reused existing information field), or the first information may be one or more fields in an information field in the DCI (which may be a newly designed field or a reused existing field).

[0167] For example, when the first information is carried by a system broadcast message, the first information may be one or more information fields in the system broadcast message (which may be a newly designed information field or a reused existing information field), or the first information may be one or more fields in an information field in the system broadcast message (which may be a newly designed field or a reused existing field).

[0168] In some embodiments, when the communication device is a service relay terminal, the first information can be carried by at least one of the following: discovery message, sidelink control information (Sidelink Control Information, SCI), sidelink media access control layer control element (Sidelink Media Access Control Control Element, SL MAC CE), PC5-RRC message.

[0169] For example, when the first information is carried by a discovery message, the first information may be one or more information fields in the discovery message (which may be a newly designed information field or a reused existing information field), or the first information may be one or more fields in an information field in the discovery message (which may be a newly designed field or a reused existing field).

[0170] For example, when the first information is carried by SCI, the first information can be one or more information fields in SCI (can be newly designed information fields or reused existing information fields), or the first information can be one or more fields in an information field in SCI (can be newly designed fields or reused existing fields).

[0171] For example, when the first information is carried by the SL MAC CE, the first information may be one or more information fields in the SL MAC CE (which may be a newly designed information field or a reused existing information field), or the first information may be one or more fields in an information field in the SL MAC CE (which may be a newly designed field or a reused existing field).

[0172] For example, when the first information is carried by a PC5-RRC message, the first information may be one or more information fields in the PC5-RRC message (which may be a newly designed information field or a reused existing information field), or the first information may be one or more fields in an information field in the PC5-RRC message (which may be a newly designed field or a reused existing field).

[0173] In some embodiments, the at least one measurement event comprises a first measurement event;

[0174] In this first measurement event, the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal (Serving L2 U2N Relay UE) is greater than or equal to a first threshold value, and / or the link measurement value between the serving relay terminal (Serving L2 U2N Relay UE) and the network device is greater than or equal to a second threshold value.

[0175] Specifically, in the first measurement event, the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal is greater than or equal to a first threshold value, and / or the link measurement value between the serving relay terminal and the network device is greater than or equal to a second threshold value. In other words, if the access conditions of the first measurement event are met, the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal is greater than or equal to the first threshold value, and / or the link measurement value between the serving relay terminal and the network device is greater than or equal to the second threshold value.

[0176] In some embodiments, the admission condition for the first measurement event is that a link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal is greater than or equal to the first threshold value, or the admission condition for the first measurement event is that a value obtained by subtracting a hysteresis value from the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal is greater than or equal to the first threshold value; and / or,

[0177] The exit condition of the first measurement event is that the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the service relay terminal is less than the first threshold value, or the exit condition of the first measurement event is that the value obtained by adding the hysteresis value to the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the service relay terminal is less than the first threshold value.

[0178] In some embodiments, when the access conditions of the first measurement event are met, the remote terminal reports a first measurement result, wherein the first measurement result is used to determine whether to perform switching between the first relay link and the second relay link. Furthermore, the network device can determine whether to perform switching between the first relay link (such as the source relay link) and the second relay link (such as the target relay link) based on the reported first measurement result. For example, when the first measurement result reported by the remote terminal meets the switching condition, the network device determines to switch the relay link to which the remote terminal belongs from the first relay link (such as the source relay link) to the second relay link (such as the target relay link); when the first measurement result reported by the remote terminal does not meet the switching condition, the network device determines not to perform switching of the relay link to which the remote terminal belongs.

[0179] Optionally, the remote terminal obtains the first measurement result through measurement. For example, the first measurement result may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: RSRP, RSRQ, SINR.

[0180] In some embodiments, when the exit condition of the first measurement event is met, the remote terminal does not perform measurement result reporting or does not report the measurement result.

Specifically, if the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC idle state or an RRC deactivated state, the network device sends the first threshold value and / or the second threshold value to the remote terminal through a system broadcast message. If the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC connected state, the network device sends the first threshold value and / or the second threshold value to the remote terminal through RRC dedicated signaling.

[0188] Specifically, in the second measurement event, the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal is less than a third threshold, and / or the link measurement value between the serving relay terminal and the network device is less than a fourth threshold. In other words, if the access conditions for the second measurement event are met, the link measurement value between the remote terminal and the serving relay terminal is less than the third threshold, and / or the link measurement value between the serving relay terminal and the network device is less than the fourth threshold.

Thus, the network device determines whether to perform switching between the first relay link (such as the source relay link) and the second relay link (such as the target relay link) based on the second measurement result reported by the remote terminal. For example, when the second measurement result reported by the remote terminal meets the switching condition, the network device determines to switch the relay link to which the remote terminal belongs from the first relay link (such as the source relay link) to the second relay link (such as the target relay link); when the second measurement result reported by the remote terminal does not meet the switching condition, the network device determines not to perform switching of the relay link to which the remote terminal belongs.

Specifically, if the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC idle state or an RRC deactivated state, the network device sends at least one of the seventh threshold value, the eighth threshold value, the ninth threshold value, and the tenth threshold value to the remote terminal through a system broadcast message. If the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC connected state, the network device sends at least one of the seventh threshold value, the eighth threshold value, the ninth threshold value, and the tenth threshold value to the remote terminal through RRC dedicated signaling.

[0231] In some embodiments, at least one of the seventh threshold value, the eighth threshold value, the ninth threshold value, and the tenth threshold value is configured by the serving relay terminal (Serving L2 U2N Relay UE) through a discovery message, or at least one of the seventh threshold value, the eighth threshold value, the ninth threshold value, and the tenth threshold value is configured by the serving relay terminal through a PC5-RRC message, or at least one of the seventh threshold value, the eighth threshold value, the ninth threshold value, and the tenth threshold value is configured by the serving relay terminal through a forwarded system broadcast message.

[0232] In some embodiments, the fifth measurement event is a measurement performed by the remote terminal according to the configured NR measurement object (measObjectNR), where the measurement object can be the current serving relay terminal and the candidate relay terminal.

[0233] In some embodiments, when the access condition of the fifth measurement event is met, the remote terminal reports the fifth measurement result, wherein the fifth measurement result is used to determine whether to perform switching between the first relay link and the second relay link. Further, the network device determines whether to perform switching between the first relay link (such as the source relay link) and the second relay link (such as the target relay link) based on the fifth measurement result reported by the remote terminal. For example, when the fifth measurement result reported by the remote terminal meets the switching condition, the network device determines to switch the relay link to which the remote terminal belongs from the first relay link (such as the source relay link) to the second relay link (such as the target relay link); when the fifth measurement result reported by the remote terminal does not meet the switching condition, the network device determines not to perform switching of the relay link to which the remote terminal belongs.

[0234] Optionally, the remote terminal obtains the fifth measurement result through measurement. For example, the fifth measurement result may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: RSRP, RSRQ, and SINR.

[0235] In some embodiments, when the exit condition of the fifth measurement event is met, the remote terminal does not perform measurement result reporting or does not report the measurement result.

[0236] In some embodiments, the preset offset value is configured according to at least one of the following granularities:

[0237] Cell granularity, remote terminal granularity, relay terminal granularity, and service priority granularity.

[0238] Specifically, in the third measurement event, the preset offset value is configured according to at least one of the following granularities: cell granularity, remote terminal granularity, relay terminal granularity, and service priority granularity.

[0239] Specifically, in the fourth measurement event, the preset offset value is configured according to at least one of the following granularities: cell granularity, remote terminal granularity, relay terminal granularity, and service priority granularity.

[0240] Specifically, in the fifth measurement event, the preset offset value is configured according to at least one of the following granularities: cell granularity, remote terminal granularity, relay terminal granularity, and service priority granularity.

[0241] In some embodiments, in different measurement events, the configuration granularity of the preset offset value may be the same or different.

[0242] In some embodiments, the preset offset value may be the same or different in different measurement events.

[0243] For example, the preset offset value may be configured according to the cell granularity, that is, different cells may be configured with different preset offset values.

[0244] For another example, the preset offset value may be configured according to the granularity of the remote terminal, that is, different preset offset values ​​may be configured for different remote terminals.

[0245] For another example, the preset offset value may be configured according to the relay terminal granularity, that is, different relay terminals may be configured with different preset offset values.

[0246] For another example, the preset offset value may be configured according to the granularity of the service priority, that is, different preset offset values ​​may be configured for different service priorities.

[0247] In some embodiments, the remote terminal may obtain the link measurement value between the serving relay terminal and the network device through at least one of the following signaling sent by the serving relay terminal:

[0248] Discovery message, SCI, SL MAC CE, PC5-RRC message.

[0249] In some embodiments, the remote terminal may obtain the link measurement value between the candidate relay terminal and the network device through at least one of the following signaling sent by the candidate relay terminal:

[0250] Discovery message, SCI, SL MAC CE, PC5-RRC message.

[0251] In some embodiments, the network device may configure the hysteresis value through RRC signaling, or the network device may configure the hysteresis value through a system broadcast message. Alternatively, the remote terminal may obtain the hysteresis value through RRC signaling sent by the network device, or the remote terminal may obtain the hysteresis value through a system broadcast message sent by the network device. Specifically, if the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC idle state or an RRC deactivated state, the network device may send the hysteresis value to the remote terminal through a system broadcast message. If the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC connected state, the network device may send the hysteresis value to the remote terminal through RRC dedicated signaling.

[0252] In some embodiments, the serving relay terminal configures the hysteresis value through a discovery message, or the serving relay terminal configures the hysteresis value through a PC5-RRC message, or the serving relay terminal configures the hysteresis value through a forwarded system broadcast message.

[0253] In some embodiments, the remote terminal can obtain the hysteresis value through a discovery message sent by the service relay terminal, or the remote terminal can obtain the hysteresis value through a PC5-RRC message sent by the service relay terminal, or the remote terminal can obtain the hysteresis value through a system broadcast message forwarded by the service relay terminal.

[0254] In some embodiments, the hysteresis value may also be referred to as a hysteresis parameter.

[0255] In some embodiments, the hysteresis value may be the same or different in different measurement events.

[0256] In some embodiments, the network device configures the preset offset value through RRC signaling, or the network device configures the preset offset value through a system broadcast message. Alternatively, the remote terminal may obtain the preset offset value through RRC signaling sent by the network device, or the remote terminal may obtain the preset offset value through a system broadcast message sent by the network device. Specifically, if the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC idle state or an RRC deactivated state, the network device sends the preset offset value to the remote terminal through a system broadcast message. If the remote terminal is within network coverage and the remote terminal is in an RRC connected state, the network device sends the preset offset value to the remote terminal through RRC dedicated signaling.

[0257] In some embodiments, the serving relay terminal configures the preset offset value through a discovery message, or the serving relay terminal configures the preset offset value through a PC5-RRC message, or the serving relay terminal configures the preset offset value through a forwarded system broadcast message.

[0258] In some embodiments, the remote terminal can obtain the preset offset value through a discovery message sent by the service relay terminal, or the remote terminal can obtain the preset offset value through a PC5-RRC message sent by the service relay terminal, or the remote terminal can obtain the preset offset value through a system broadcast message forwarded by the service relay terminal.

[0259] Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, a communication device (such as a network device or a service relay terminal) configures at least one measurement event for switching between a first relay link and a second relay link for a remote terminal, so that the remote terminal can report the measurement results based on the configured measurement event, and then the network device can determine whether to perform switching between relay links based on the reported measurement results.
