Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a measurement method, device and terminal. Background Art

[0002] The measurements commonly used by the terminal in communication include layer (Layer, L) 1 measurement and L3 measurement. In some related technologies, the configuration and result reporting of L1 measurement and L3 measurement are completely independent, and after the terminal performs L3 measurement and obtains the measurement result, the terminal reports the measurement result to the network side, and the network side uses the measurement result. For example, the network side determines whether the mobility management requirements such as cell change are met based on the measurement result, and L1 measurement is often used to measure and report the signal quality of different beams under the service cell for beam switching and other purposes. In this way, since the configuration and result reporting of L1 measurement and L3 measurement are completely independent, the baseband execution module is also mostly completely independent, that is, the measurement result of L3 measurement will not be used for L1 measurement, and the measurement result of L1 measurement will not be used for L1 measurement. This results in that when the L1 measurement process is used for cell change in mobility management, the terminal needs to interact too much with the network side, resulting in the mobility management process based on L1 measurement being too complicated.

[0033] In the following, in combination with the accompanying drawings, a measurement method, a device and a terminal provided in an embodiment of the present application are described in detail through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0034] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a flow chart of a measurement method provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0035] Step 201: A terminal obtains a target configuration signaling, where the target configuration signaling indicates to perform L1 measurement on a first frequency point.

[0036] The above-mentioned obtaining of the target configuration signaling may be that the terminal receives the target configuration signaling sent by the network side device.

[0037] The target configuration signaling indicating to measure layer L1 on the first frequency may be an explicit or implicit indication of the target configuration signaling to measure layer L1 on the first frequency. The target configuration signaling indicating to measure layer L1 on the first frequency may also be understood as the target configuration signaling configuring the terminal to measure L1 on the first frequency.

[0038] The first frequency point mentioned above may be one or more frequency points.

[0039] Step 202: The terminal performs L3 measurement on the first frequency point to obtain a first measurement result.

[0040] Step 202 may be triggered by step 201, such as Figure 2 As shown, step 202 is performed after step 201; in some implementations, step 202 may be performed before step 201, or the execution times of step 201 and step 202 may overlap.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present application, L3 measurement is not limited to measurement at layer 3. In the embodiment of the present application, L3 measurement includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0042] Cell discovery, synchronization signal block (SSB) sequence number acquisition, coarse synchronization, and coarse beam information acquisition.

[0043] The above L3 measurements can also be done at layer 1.

[0044] Similarly, the first measurement result includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0045] Discover the cell, SSB sequence number, coarse synchronization information, and coarse beam information.

[0046] The sequence number of the SSB may also be referred to as the identifier of the SSB, and the above coarse synchronization may be time coarse synchronization. For specific coarse synchronization and coarse beam, please refer to the corresponding definition in the protocol.

[0047] In some embodiments, the cell discovery may be to detect the primary synchronization signal (PSS) or the secondary synchronization signal (SSS) to discover the cell; the coarse synchronization may be to detect the PSS or SSS for coarse synchronization, or the coarse synchronization and coarse beam information acquisition may be to measure the cell, such as the coarse synchronization and coarse beam information acquisition are SSB-based cell measurements; the SSB sequence number acquisition may be time sequence number detection.

[0048] The L3 measurement is used to assist the L1 measurement in performing cell discovery, SSB sequence acquisition, coarse synchronization acquisition, and coarse beam information acquisition, etc. In addition, the L3 measurement is also used to discover the first frequency point before performing the L1 measurement on the first frequency point.

[0049] Step 203: The terminal performs L1 measurement on the first frequency point according to the first measurement result to obtain a second measurement result.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the L1 measurement in the embodiment of the present application may include beam measurement or beam synchronization, such as fine beam measurement or fine synchronization measurement, and may also include reporting of measurement at L1.

[0051] In some implementations, performing L1 measurement on the first frequency point may be performing L1 measurement on a reference signal of the first frequency point.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, the above steps can be used to perform L1 measurement based on the L3 measurement result, so that in the L1 measurement process, there is no need to interact with the network side corresponding to the L3 measurement result, thereby reducing the interaction between the terminal and the network side in the cell change process in which the L1 measurement process is used for mobility management, simplifying the mobility management process based on L1 measurement, and achieving the purpose of greatly improving the efficiency of mobility management. Compared with the mobility management process based on L3 measurement, the benefits are higher, and because the efficiency of the mobility management process is improved, the switching interruption duration in high mobility scenarios can also be reduced, thereby improving user experience. For example: the above-mentioned L3 measurement includes cell discovery, so there is no need to perform cell discovery when performing L1 measurement, and L1 measurement can be directly performed on the cell discovered by the L3 measurement, so as to simplify the L1 measurement process and improve the efficiency of the mobility management process based on the L1 measurement; for another example: the above-mentioned L3 measurement includes SSB sequence number acquisition, so that the L1 measurement can be directly performed based on the SSB sequence number, so as to simplify the L1 measurement process and improve the efficiency of the mobility management process based on the L1 measurement; for another example: the above-mentioned L3 measurement includes coarse synchronization or coarse beam information acquisition, so that the L1 measurement can be directly performed based on the coarse synchronization or coarse beam information without the need for corresponding coarse synchronization and coarse beam information acquisition, so as to simplify the L1 measurement process and improve the efficiency of the mobility management process based on the L1 measurement.

[0053] In addition, since the synchronization, beam and other information required for L1 measurement have been obtained through the L3 measurement related process before L1 measurement, the performance of L1 measurement can be effectively guaranteed. And by reusing the L3 measurement process without introducing new cell discovery and other processes, the baseband implementation related to L1 measurement of the terminal can be simple and efficient.

[0054] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs L3 measurement on the first frequency point to obtain a first measurement result, including:

[0055] In a first case, the terminal performs L3 measurement on the first frequency point to obtain a first measurement result;

[0056] The first situation includes one of the following:

[0057] The configuration signaling obtained by the terminal indicates to perform L3 measurement on the first frequency point;

[0058] The configuration signaling obtained by the terminal does not indicate to perform L3 measurement on the first frequency point;

[0059] The configuration signaling acquired by the terminal includes the target configuration signaling or includes configuration signaling different from the target configuration signaling.

[0060] The configuration signaling acquired by the terminal may be the target configuration signaling, or may be a configuration signaling acquired by the terminal before acquiring the target configuration signaling.

[0061] In which, when the configuration signaling obtained by the terminal does not indicate to perform L3 measurement on the first frequency point, the terminal can determine to perform L3 measurement on the first frequency point based on the above-mentioned target configuration signaling to obtain a first measurement result.

[0062] In this implementation, it can be achieved that when the configuration signaling indicates or does not indicate to perform L3 measurement on the first frequency point, the terminal performs L3 measurement on the first frequency point, so as to simplify the L1 measurement process and improve the efficiency of L1 measurement.

[0063] Optionally, the first situation includes a situation in which the configuration signaling acquired by the terminal indicates that L3 measurement is performed on the first frequency point, and the first situation further includes at least one of the following:

[0064] The configuration signaling obtained by the terminal does not indicate reporting information associated with L3 measurement of the first frequency point;

[0065] The configuration signaling obtained by the terminal instructs the terminal to obtain the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point, or the configuration signaling obtained by the terminal does not instruct the terminal to obtain the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point;

[0066] In which, when the configuration signaling obtained by the terminal does not instruct the terminal to obtain the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point, the terminal determines that the L3 measurement at the first frequency point includes obtaining the SSB sequence number.

[0067] The fact that the configuration signaling does not indicate reporting information associated with the L3 measurement of the first frequency point may mean that the configuration signaling does not configure a reporting event associated with the L3 measurement, that is, the configuration signaling does not instruct the terminal to report the first measurement result.

[0068] The above-mentioned instructing the terminal to obtain the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point may be instructing the terminal to report the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point, and the above-mentioned not instructing the terminal to obtain the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point may be not instructing the terminal to report the SSB sequence number of the first frequency point.

[0069] In this implementation, when the target configuration signaling does not configure the L3 measurement of the first frequency point, or only configures the L3 measurement of the first frequency point but does not have any reporting information associated with the L3 measurement report, the terminal determines that the first frequency point also needs to perform L3 measurement-related behaviors, thereby performing L1 measurement based on the L3 measurement result, and further making it unnecessary to interact with the network side during the L1 measurement process with the network side for relevant information whose L3 measurement result has been known, so as to simplify the L1 measurement process and improve the efficiency of L1 measurement.

[0070] In some implementations, the terminal reports the first measurement result only when the configuration signaling indicates reporting information associated with the L3 measurement of the first frequency point, that is, when the configuration signaling does not indicate reporting information associated with the L3 measurement of the first frequency point, the terminal does not report the first measurement result, and only reports the first measurement result when the L3 measurement and L3 reporting frequency points are configured. For example: Figure 3 As shown in the figure, when the network configures L1 measurement on SSB frequency (SSB-freq) #1 in the figure, but does not configure L3 measurement on SSB-freq #1, or only configures L3 measurement but has no information associated with any L3 measurement report, the terminal determines that the frequency point also needs to perform L3 measurement related behaviors.

[0071] In this implementation, it can also be realized that if the target configuration signaling configures L1 measurement for the first frequency point, and the configuration signaling obtained by the terminal configures L3 measurement for this frequency point, but does not configure SSB sequence number acquisition or reporting, the terminal determines that the SSB sequence number also needs to be acquired on this frequency point. Optionally, it also includes that if the target configuration signaling configures L1 measurement for the first frequency point, and the configuration signaling obtained by the terminal configures L3 measurement for this frequency point, but does not configure SSB sequence number acquisition or reporting, and does not configure indication information of SSB sequence number synchronization for this frequency point, the terminal determines that the SSB sequence number also needs to be acquired on this frequency point.

[0072] Optionally, the terminal expects that when the target configuration signaling indicates to perform layer L1 measurement on the first frequency point, the configuration signaling obtained by the terminal indicates to perform L3 measurement on the first frequency point. The L3 measurement on the first frequency point may not include configuring L3 reporting on the first frequency point. By adding such a configuration method, the existing configuration signaling can be reused to independently indicate the L3 measurement process without indicating L3 reporting. The terminal can directly perform L1 measurement based on the L3 measurement result, thereby reducing interaction and improving the efficiency of the mobility management process based on L1 measurement.

[0073] Among them, the above-mentioned expectation can be understood as the terminal responding to the above-mentioned target configuration signaling only when the above-mentioned target configuration signaling meets the above-mentioned deadline of the terminal; or, the above-mentioned expectation can be understood as the terminal not responding to the above-mentioned target configuration signaling (such as not performing the above-mentioned L1 measurement) or the terminal requests the network side to resend the configuration signaling when the above-mentioned target configuration signaling does not meet the above-mentioned expectations of the terminal.

[0074] In addition, the network side's expectations for the terminal are pre-acquired. Therefore, if L1 measurement is configured for the first frequency point in the target configuration signaling, the network side configures L3 measurement for the frequency point and instructs to obtain the SSB sequence number. Otherwise, the terminal may not perform L1 measurement at the first frequency point.

[0075] In this implementation, the above expectation can be used to match the measurement behavior of the terminal with the configuration signaling on the network side, thereby reducing the complexity of the terminal.

[0076] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first frequency point according to the first measurement result to obtain a second measurement result, including:

[0077] In a second case, the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first frequency point according to the first measurement result to obtain a second measurement result;

[0078] The second situation includes:

[0079] A time difference between a measurement time of performing the L3 measurement on the first frequency point and a measurement time of performing the L1 measurement is within a preset range.

[0080] The above preset range may be agreed upon by the protocol or configured on the network side.

[0081] In this implementation, before performing the L1 measurement, the terminal can perform the L1 measurement on the first frequency point according to the first measurement result to obtain the second measurement result if the terminal has recently performed the L3 measurement on the first frequency point, and not perform the L1 measurement if the second condition is not met, that is, the terminal performs the L1 measurement on the first frequency point only after completing at least one L3 measurement on the first frequency point recently. This can save power consumption of the terminal.

[0082] As an optional implementation manner, when the terminal is configured to measure multiple frequency points including the first frequency point, and the terminal shares the same set of cell search modules for the multiple frequency points, the measurement time of the L3 measurement of the first frequency point by the terminal is extended according to the target frequency point number and the number of L3 measurement frequency points, and the number of L3 measurement frequency points is the number of other frequency points in the multiple frequency points except the frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side;

[0083] Wherein, in the case where the cell search module is a cell search module associated with a primary component carrier (PCC), the number of target frequencies is equal to the number of frequencies for which L1 measurement is configured on the network side, and the frequencies for which L1 measurement is configured on the network side include at least PCC frequencies; or

[0084] In the case where the cell search module is a cell search module associated with a secondary component carrier (SCC), the target frequency number is equal to the frequency of L1 measurement configured on the network side minus the number of PCC frequencies, and the number of PCC frequencies is the number of PCC frequencies among the frequency of L1 measurement configured on the network side.

[0085] The measurement of the above-mentioned multiple frequency points may be L3 measurement or L1 measurement performed on the multiple frequency points, wherein some frequency points may be subjected to L3 measurement and L1 measurement, or only L3 measurement is performed; or all frequency points may be subjected to L3 measurement and L1 measurement.

[0086] The frequency point configured with L1 measurement on the network side means that the network side signaling configures L1 measurement on the frequency point. For the frequency point configured with L1 measurement on the network side, the terminal can directly perform L1 measurement on the frequency point, or it can perform L1 measurement on the frequency point based on the instruction of the network side. For example: if the network side configures L1 measurement on a certain frequency point, the terminal needs to use this frequency point as a frequency point that needs to perform L3 measurement. If L1 measurement is configured on a certain frequency point, but the network is not activated (that is, no instruction to perform L1 measurement is given, the terminal may not start L1 measurement on the frequency point immediately, but may start L1 measurement after receiving the network instruction (for example, after reporting the L3 measurement result to the network).

[0087] In the embodiment of the present application, the frequency point configured by the network side for L1 measurement includes the first frequency point indicated by the target configuration signaling. The first frequency point may be that the network side configured L1 measurement before the target configuration signaling indicates, or may be that the target configuration signaling directly indicates that the L1 measurement is to be performed, that is, the L1 measurement of the first frequency point does not need to be configured by the network side signaling before the target configuration signaling, or may be that the target configuration signaling indicates that the L1 measurement of the first frequency point is equivalent to the L1 measurement of the first frequency point configured by the network side.

[0088] The frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side may be multiple first frequency points for LI measurement indicated by the target configuration signaling, that is, the target configuration instruction indicates to perform LI measurement on multiple first frequency points; or, the frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side may include: the first frequency point indicated by the target configuration signaling, and the frequency points for L1 measurement indicated by other configuration signaling received by the terminal. In the embodiment of the present application, the frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side may all be referred to as first frequency points.

[0089] The measurement time of the L3 measurement for the first frequency point is extended according to the target frequency point number and the number of L3 measurement frequency points. The extension may include:

[0090] The measurement time of the L3 measurement of the first frequency point is extended according to a first sum value, where the first sum value is equal to the sum of the number of target frequency points and the number of L3 measurement frequency points;

[0091] The measurement time of the L3 measurement of the first frequency point is extended according to a second sum value, where the second sum value is equal to the integer weighted sum of the number of target frequency points and the number of L3 measurement frequency points.

[0092] The number of the above-mentioned multiple frequency points except the frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side may also be referred to as the number of frequency points of other shared cell search modules.

[0093] The measurement time of the L3 measurement for the first frequency point may be extended according to the target frequency point number and the number of L3 measurement frequency points, and the maximum value of the measurement time of the L3 measurement for the first frequency point may be determined by multiplying the basic value determined based on the network configuration by the measurement time extension coefficient outside the measurement interval (gap). A simple implementation method is that the terminal determines the basic value based on the network configuration, and then multiplies it by the measurement time extension coefficient to determine the maximum time period allowed to complete the measurement at a certain frequency point, and then performs time division multiplexing on the cell search module in the measurement scheduling of multiple frequency points.

[0094] In this implementation manner, when the cell search module is a cell search module associated with a PCC, the measurement time extension coefficient outside the measurement gap is an integer weighted sum of the target frequency number and the L3 measurement frequency number, wherein the L3 measurement frequency number includes the sum of one or more of the following:

[0095] The number of PCCs is generally determined to be 1;

[0096] The number of L3 measurements based on the Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) configured on the PCC. When the L3 measurement based on the CSI-RS is configured on the PCC, the number is 1.

[0097] In the case where the cell search module is a cell search module associated with the SCC, the measurement time extension coefficient outside the measurement gap is not less than the number of target frequency points, and the number of L3 measurement frequency points at least includes the sum of one or more of the following items:

[0098] The number of frequencies for L3 measurement of SSB without gap in SCC;

[0099] The number of frequencies for L3 measurement of SSB without gap in SCC;

[0100] In SCC, L3 measurement of SSB is performed without gap and the number of frequencies required for neighboring cell measurement;

[0101] In SCC, no gap is used to perform L3 measurement on SSB, and the number of frequencies that do not require neighboring cell measurement;

[0102] Neighboring cell measurement is required in SCC, and the number of frequency points for CSI-RS L3 measurement is configured;

[0103] Neighboring cell measurement is not required in SCC, and the number of frequencies for CSI-RS L3 measurement is configured;

[0104] The number of frequency points that need to be measured outside the measurement interval.

[0105] In some implementations, the frequencies corresponding to the target frequency number may be the same frequency points as the PCC or SCC frequency points, or may be different frequency points of the L1 measurement performed outside the measurement interval, and the frequencies corresponding to the target frequency number may include at least the PCC frequency points.

[0106] For example, assuming that the number of FR2 PCCs is 1, the number of CSI-RS measurements configured on the FR2 PCC is 1; the number of frequencies on the FR2 SCC that do not use gaps to perform L3 measurements on SSB and require neighbor measurements is 1; the number of frequencies on the SCC that require neighbor measurements and are configured with CSI-RS L3 measurements is 0; the number of frequencies on the FR2 SCC that do not use gaps to perform L3 measurements on SSB and do not require neighbor measurements is 3; the number of frequencies that require inter-frequency measurements outside the measurement interval is 2; the number of frequencies on the SCC that do not require neighbor measurements and are configured with CSI-RS L3 measurements is 0; the number of target frequencies is 2, one of which is a PCC; based on the above assumptions:

[0107] If it is further assumed that the cell search module is a cell search module associated with the PCC, the measurement time expansion coefficient of the L3 measurement of the first frequency point = the number of FR2 PCCs + the number of CSI-RS measurements configured on the FR2 PCC + the number of frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side excluding PCC = 1+1+(2-1)=3.

[0108] If it is further assumed that the cell search module is a cell search module associated with the SCC, the measurement time expansion coefficient of the L3 measurement of the first frequency point = 2*(the number of frequency points on the FR2 SCC where L3 measurement of SSB is performed without gap and neighboring area measurement is required + the number of frequency points on the network side configured with L1 measurement except PCC + the number of frequency points in the SCC where neighboring area measurement is required and CSI-RS L3 measurement is configured) = 2*(1+(2-1)+0)=4.

[0109] In this implementation mode, the terminal shares a set of cell search modules for the above-mentioned multiple frequency points, and the cell search template may be a cell search module associated with the PCC, or may be a cell search module associated with the SCC, and the cell search template may be a hardware module or a software module. For example: for the case where the first frequency point is an inactive SCC frequency point or an inter-frequency frequency point, and the network side configures the first frequency point to configure L1 measurement outside the measurement interval (gap), the terminal shares the cell search module with the PCC when performing L3 measurement on the first frequency point; for another example: optionally, for the case where the first frequency point is an inactive SCC frequency point or an inter-frequency frequency point, and the network side configures the first frequency point to configure L1 measurement outside the measurement interval (gap), the terminal shares the cell search module with the SCC when performing L3 measurement on the first frequency point.

[0110] In this implementation, since the measurement time of the L3 measurement of the first frequency point is extended, the measurement performance of the L3 measurement can be guaranteed when multiple frequency point measurements share the same set of cell search modules, and the same set of cell search modules can be supported to save terminal resource overhead.

[0111] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first frequency point according to the first measurement result to obtain a second measurement result, including:

[0112] The terminal performs L1 measurement on the first SSB in the first cell to obtain a second measurement result;

[0113] The first measurement result includes at least one of the following:

[0114] discovering the first cell;

[0115] The sequence number of the first SSB.

[0116] The first cell is a cell discovered by performing L3 measurement on the first frequency point, and the serial number of the first SSB is the serial number of the SSB obtained by performing L3 measurement on the first frequency point. For example: through the L3 measurement process, an SSB with serial number X1 on cell A is discovered and the L3 measurement is completed, then the terminal performs L1 measurement on SSB X1 on cell A.

[0117] In this implementation, since L1 measurement is performed based on the cell discovered by L3 measurement and the sequence number of the first SSB, this can simplify the L1 measurement process and improve the efficiency of L1 measurement.

[0118] Optionally, the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first SSB in the first cell to obtain a second measurement result, including:

[0119] When the first frequency point is a frequency point of an inactive SCC or an alien frequency point, and the terminal performs L3 measurement on the first frequency point within a first time period, the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first SSB in the first cell to obtain a second measurement result.

[0120] Among them, the above-mentioned first duration is agreed upon by the protocol or configured on the network side. In addition, the first duration for the frequency point or the inter-frequency point of the inactive SCC may be different, for example: the first duration corresponding to the frequency point and the inter-frequency point of the inactive SCC agreed upon by the protocol or configured on the network side.

[0121] The time corresponding to the above-mentioned first duration includes the time before the terminal performs the L1 measurement, the duration of which is the first duration.

[0122] In some implementations, the first duration is a fixed value or a fixed multiple of the L3 measurement period.

[0123] In some implementations, the first time may be a time whose most recent duration is the first duration before performing the L1 measurement.

[0124] In this implementation, it can be achieved that for the frequency point of the non-activated SCC or the inter-frequency point, the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first SSB in the first cell only when L3 measurement is performed on the frequency point within the first time, otherwise, the terminal does not perform L1 measurement on the first SSB in the first cell, so that the measurement performance of the L1 measurement can be guaranteed to avoid the terminal moving into the range of the first cell due to high-speed movement of the terminal, thereby causing the L1 measurement to fail. For example: for L1 measurement on a non-activated SCC or an inter-frequency point, if the terminal has discovered the SSB with sequence number X1 on cell A through the L3 measurement process within the above-mentioned first time, and completed the L3 measurement, the terminal performs L1 measurement on SSB No. X1 on cell A; before SSB No. A-X1 in cell A is discovered and the measurement is completed by the terminal through L3 measurement, the terminal has no L1 measurement requirement on the SSB, that is, L1 measurement can be omitted.

[0125] In some implementations, if the terminal does not perform L3 measurement on the first reference signal of the first frequency point within the first time, the terminal does not perform L1 measurement on the first reference signal of the first frequency point. This can save power consumption of the terminal. For example: if the last L3 measurement of a reference signal on a different frequency point has exceeded the first duration, the terminal may not perform L1 measurement on the reference signal before the next L3 measurement is completed.

[0126] In some implementations, the terminal may perform multiple L3 measurements for the first frequency point, wherein the L1 measurement performed in step 203 may be performed simultaneously with other L3 measurements, and the other L3 measurements are L3 measurements after the L3 measurement in step 202. For example: Figure 4 As shown, the second L3 measurement of the terminal on SSB frequency point #1 is performed simultaneously with the L1 measurement. In addition, the above first duration can be Figure 4 Y ms / time slot / symbol are shown.

[0127] In some implementations, when the terminal does not perform L3 measurement on the first reference signal of the first frequency point within the first time, the L1 measurement indicator and the L3 measurement indicator of the terminal at the first frequency point may be the same indicator.

[0128] Optionally, the measurement time of the terminal for the first frequency point is equal to the sum of the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time; or

[0129] The L1 measurement of the first frequency by the terminal occupies a first part of the SSB resources of the first frequency, the L3 measurement of the first frequency by the terminal occupies a second part of the SSB resources of the first frequency, and the measurement indicator of the first frequency by the terminal is extended; or

[0130] The terminal's L1 measurement of the first frequency point occupies a first part of a time interval (gap) associated with the first frequency point, the terminal's L3 measurement of the first frequency point occupies a second part of the time interval associated with the first frequency point, and the terminal extends the measurement index of the first frequency point.

[0131] The measurement time of the terminal for the first frequency point equal to the sum of the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time may be that when the L1 measurement and the L3 measurement share the same set of cell search modules, the measurement time of the terminal for the first frequency point equals the sum of the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time. For example: for the L1 measurement on the inactive SCC frequency point or the L1 measurement on the different frequency point, the sharing method of the L1 measurement and the L3 measurement is: the L1 measurement is performed after the L3 measurement, and the measurement time on the frequency point is the sum of the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time. In addition, when the network side indicates that the terminal needs to measure multiple frequency points, the total measurement time of these multiple frequency points (including L3 measurement and L1 measurement) is the sum of the measurement time on each frequency point that needs to share the cell search module.

[0132] In this implementation manner, since the measurement time of the terminal for the first frequency point is equal to the sum of the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time, the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time can be reasonably configured.

[0133] The first and second parts of the SSB resources of the above-mentioned first frequency point can be determined according to a sharing factor, wherein the sharing factor is agreed upon by the protocol or configured by the network, for example: L1 measurement occupies 1 / 3 of all SSB resources of the first frequency point, and L3 measurement occupies 2 / 3 of all SSB resources of the first frequency point.

[0134] The measurement index of the first frequency point may include at least one of the following:

[0135] The maximum time allowed for measuring the first frequency point;

[0136] The maximum time allowed for measuring the reference signal at the first frequency point;

[0137] Measure the maximum time allowed for the cell at the first frequency point to be used.

[0138] The measurement index of the above-mentioned first frequency point can be extended according to the proportion of SSB resources. For example, if L1 measurement occupies 1 / 3 of all SSB resources of the first frequency point, the measurement index of L1 measurement is extended by 3 times; if L3 measurement occupies 2 / 3 of all SSB resources of the first frequency point, the measurement index of L3 measurement is extended by 3 / 2 times.

[0139] In the above implementation, L1 measurement and L3 measurement can share the SSB resource of the first frequency point, and the terminal extends the measurement index of the first frequency point, so as to ensure the measurement performance of L1 measurement and L3 measurement.

[0140] The first part and the second part of the time interval associated with the above-mentioned first frequency point can be determined according to a sharing factor, wherein the sharing factor is agreed upon by the protocol or configured by the network, for example: L1 measurement occupies 1 / 3 of the time interval allocated to the first frequency point, and L3 measurement occupies the remaining 2 / 3 of the time interval.

[0141] The measurement index of the first frequency point may be extended according to the proportion of the time interval. For example, if L1 measurement occupies 1 / 3 of the time interval, the measurement index of L1 measurement is extended by 3 times; if L3 measurement occupies 2 / 3 of the time interval, the measurement index of L3 measurement is extended by 3 / 2 times.

[0142] In the above implementation, the L1 measurement and the L3 measurement can share the time interval associated with the first frequency point, and the terminal extends the measurement index of the first frequency point, so as to ensure the measurement performance of the L1 measurement and the L3 measurement.

[0143] In some embodiments, when the first frequency point is an alien frequency point or a non-activated SCC frequency point, and the SSB period and the synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel block measurement timing configuration (SS / PBCH block Measurement Timing Configuration, SMTC) period are equal, the terminal's L1 measurement of the first frequency point occupies the first part of the SSB resources of the first frequency point, the terminal's L3 measurement of the first frequency point occupies the second part of the SSB resources of the first frequency point, and the terminal extends the measurement index of the first frequency point.

[0144] As an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0145] The terminal reports measurement information, where the measurement information includes the second measurement result and a time interval, where the time interval is a time interval between performing L1 measurement and reporting the measurement information.

[0146] The terminal reports the measurement information to the network side.

[0147] The above time interval is the interval between the actual execution time and the reporting time of L1 measurement.

[0148] The above time interval can be reported in the form of code points. For example, an X-bit code point in the above measurement information can be used to carry no more than 2 XFor example, when X=2, there are 4 groups of interval ranges reported by the terminal, as shown in Table 1:

[0149] Table 1:

[0150]

[0151]

[0152] In the above implementation, since the above measurement interval is reported, this can help the network side to send a switching decision, or determine the sending time of the early random access channel (Physical Random Access Channel, RACH), such as determining the approximate sending time of the early RACH (early RACH), thereby improving the switching or random access performance of the terminal.

[0153] As an optional implementation, the method further includes at least one of the following:

[0154] When the measurement time of performing L1 measurement on the first frequency point exceeds a second duration, after the terminal receives trigger signaling sent by a physical random access channel (PRACH), the terminal receives at least one SSB, performs measurement processing based on the SSB, and sends the PRACH to the target cell when the measurement processing based on the SSB is completed;

[0155] When the measurement time of performing L1 measurement on the first frequency point does not exceed the second duration, the terminal sends the PRACH to the target cell in response to the received PRACH sending trigger signaling.

[0156] The second duration is agreed upon in the protocol or configured on the network side.

[0157] The above-mentioned measurement processing based on SSB may be synchronization based on SSB, such as downlink synchronization based on SSB, or measurement processing based on SSB before other cell switching, which is not limited to this.

[0158] The above-mentioned PRACH sending trigger signaling may be used to indicate that the terminal needs to send PRACH (early PRACH) to the target cell in advance before cell switching.

[0159] In this implementation, since the measurement time of the L1 measurement exceeds the second duration, the terminal sends PRACH to the target cell only after completing the SSB-based measurement processing, which allows the terminal to better access the cell. For example: the last time the terminal performed L1 measurement on a reference signal on a different frequency point or a non-activated SCC frequency point exceeded the above-mentioned second duration (such as Z ms), and according to the network configuration, the terminal needs to send PRACH to the target cell in advance before the cell is switched. In this case, the terminal needs to wait for an SSB to obtain downlink synchronization within the second duration (such as Z ms) before sending PRACH, and then send PRACH, so that the terminal can better access the cell. Specifically, it can be as follows Figure 5 As shown, the terminal sends PRACH after Z ms / time slots / symbols.

[0160] When the measurement time of the above-mentioned L1 measurement does not exceed the second duration, the terminal sends a trigger signaling in response to the received PRACH, and sends PRACH to the target cell. It can be that when the measurement time of the L1 measurement does not exceed the second duration, the terminal directly sends a trigger signaling based on PRACH, and sends PRACH to the target cell, that is, there is no need to perform measurement processing based on SSB before sending PRACH, so as to save power consumption of the terminal.

[0161] In an embodiment of the present application, a terminal obtains a target configuration signaling, and the target configuration signaling indicates to perform layer L1 measurement on a first frequency point; the terminal performs L3 measurement on the first frequency point to obtain a first measurement result; the terminal performs L1 measurement on the first frequency point according to the first measurement result to obtain a second measurement result. In this way, L1 measurement can be performed on the basis of L3 measurement results, so that in the L1 measurement process, there is no need to interact with the network side corresponding to the L3 measurement result, so as to reduce the interaction between the terminal and the network side in the L1 measurement process, simplify the mobility management process based on L1 measurement, and improve the efficiency of the mobility management process based on L1 measurement. Since the efficiency of the mobility management process is improved, switching interruption in high mobility scenarios can also be reduced.

[0162] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application is illustrated below by an example:

[0163] In this embodiment, the terminal receives measurement configuration signaling for cell 1 related to the first frequency point, and the measurement configuration signaling instructs the terminal to perform L1 measurement on cell 1 corresponding to the first frequency point, and the terminal determines to perform L3 measurement related behavior at the first frequency point and perform L1 measurement in cell 1. This process includes the following three specific implementation options:

[0164] Option 1: If L3 measurement is not configured at the first frequency point, or only L3 measurement is configured but there is no information associated with any L3 report, the terminal determines that this frequency point also needs to perform L3 measurement-related behavior. At this time, the terminal does not need to make L3 reports on this frequency point (that is, only when both L3 measurement and frequency points associated with L3 reports are configured, L3 reports are required). The terminal only needs to further perform L1 measurements based on the L3 measurement results at the frequency point, and report the L1 measurement results as L1. In this process, L3 measurements are used to assist L1 measurements in cell discovery, coarse synchronization acquisition, coarse beam acquisition, and SSB sequence number acquisition, etc. Before starting L1 measurements on terminal cell 1, it is necessary to discover cell 1 on the corresponding frequency point through L3 measurements;

[0165] For example: Figure 3 As shown in the figure, when the network configures L1 measurement on SSB frequency (SSB-freq) #1 in the figure, but does not configure L3 measurement on SSB-freq #1, or only configures L3 measurement but has no information associated with any L3 measurement report, the terminal determines that the frequency point also needs to perform L3 measurement related behaviors.

[0166] Option 2: If L1 measurement is configured for a certain frequency point in the target configuration signaling, the network must or the terminal expects to configure L3 measurement for this frequency point, and L3 measurement is associated with L3 reporting, and L3 reporting must include the acquisition of SSB sequence number. Otherwise, the terminal may not perform L1 measurement on this frequency point, that is, it is not necessary to trigger L1 reporting as long as the cell signal quality meets the conditions, that is, there is no performance requirement for the terminal's L1 measurement on this frequency point;

[0167] For example, when the network configures L1 measurement on SSB-freq#1 in the figure, but does not configure L3 measurement on SSB-freq#1, or only configures L3 measurement but does not associate it with any L3 reporting, the terminal may not perform L1 measurement at this frequency point. It is not necessary to accurately report on L1 as long as the cell signal quality meets certain conditions.

[0168] Option 3: If L1 measurement is configured for a certain frequency point in the target configuration signaling, and L3 measurement is configured for this frequency point, and L3 measurement is associated with L3 reporting, but SSB sequence number reporting is not configured in L3 reporting, the terminal determines that the frequency point needs to perform L3 related actions and L1 measurement; that is, the terminal needs to perform SSB sequence number acquisition in addition to SSB detection, coarse synchronization acquisition and SSB sequence number acquisition. If based on the configuration of L3 measurement, the terminal determines that it does not need to perform L3 measurement at this frequency point, the terminal can also not perform L1 measurement at this frequency point.

[0169] For example, Figure 3As shown in the figure, when the network configures L1 measurement on SSB-freq#1, and also configures L3 measurement on SSB-freq#1, and L3 measurement is associated with L3 reporting, but SSB sequence number reporting is not configured in L3 reporting, then the terminal also needs to detect the SSB sequence number at this frequency point. If L1 measurement is configured on SSB-freq#1, but L3 measurement is not configured, or L3 measurement is not associated with L3 reporting, the terminal may not perform L1 measurement at this frequency point, and it is not necessary to accurately report at L1 as long as the cell signal quality meets certain conditions.

[0170] In this embodiment, L3 measurement related behaviors include cell discovery, coarse synchronization acquisition, coarse beam acquisition, and SSB sequence number acquisition. Among them, cell discovery and coarse synchronization acquisition are generally also referred to as PSS and SSS detection; coarse synchronization acquisition and coarse beam acquisition are also referred to as (SSB-based) cell measurement; SSB sequence number acquisition is also referred to as time sequence number detection.

[0171] In this embodiment, the first frequency point is the SSB frequency point. In the above description, the L1 measurement refers to the L1 measurement configured in the channel state information measurement configuration (CSI-MeasConfig) or the low-layer triggered mobility management measurement configuration (LTM-MeasConfig). The L1 measurement terminal uses a thin receiving beam or a dense time interval to perform downlink measurement, such as performing L1 measurement based on the reporting period configured by the network. The L3 measurement can be a measurement configured in the new air interface measurement configuration (MeasConfigNR). The L3 measurement terminal uses a wide receiving beam or a carrier number factor (Carrier-specific sharing factor, CSSF) defined in the protocol to perform polling measurement on multiple SSB frequencies.

[0172] In this embodiment, it can be ensured that before the terminal performs L1 measurement, it has obtained the synchronization, beam and other information required for L1 measurement through the L3 measurement related process, so that the performance of L1 measurement can be effectively guaranteed. And by multiplexing the L3 measurement process without introducing new cell discovery and other processes, the baseband implementation related to L1 measurement can be simple and efficient.

[0173] In this embodiment, after the terminal determines that a related process of performing L3 measurement on the first frequency point needs to be performed first and then performing L1 measurement, the following further includes:

[0174] When the network is configured with multiple frequency points that need to be measured at L3 or L1, and multiple different frequency points share the same set of cell search modules, the first frequency point is still used as a frequency point to share the cell search module with other measurement frequency points. For example, a simple sharing method is that the time for the terminal to complete the measurement on a certain frequency point is extended according to the target frequency point number and the number of L3 frequency points, and the number of L3 frequency points is the number of other frequency points except the frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side. Wherein, in the case where the cell search module is a cell search module associated with PCC, the target frequency point number is equal to the frequency point number of the frequency point configured for L1 measurement on the network side, and the frequency point configured for L1 measurement on the network side at least includes PCC frequency points; or, in the case where the cell search module is a cell search module associated with SCC, the target frequency point number is equal to the frequency point configured for L1 measurement on the network side minus the number of PCC frequency points, and the number of PCC frequency points is the number of PCC frequency points among the frequency points configured for L1 measurement on the network side.

[0175] Specifically, for L1 measurement on the inactive SCC, the cell search module shared in the previous L3 measurement is divided into two modes:

[0176] Method 1: When the network configures L1 measurement for a first frequency point, and the measurement of the first frequency point is performed outside the gap, when the terminal performs L3 cell search and measurement on the frequency point, the cell search module is shared with the PCC. The above-mentioned target frequency point number is equal to the number of frequency points configured with L1 measurement on the network side. The frequency points configured with L1 measurement on the network side include at least PCC frequency points. Because the PCC is a potential target primary cell (Primary cell, Pcell), the measurement result needs to be comparable with the PCC.

[0177] Method 2: When the network configures L1 measurement for a first frequency point, and the measurement of the first frequency point is performed outside the gap, when the terminal performs L3 cell search and measurement on the frequency point, the cell search module is shared with the existing activated and inactivated SCC; the above-mentioned target frequency point number is equal to the frequency point configured with L1 measurement on the network side minus the number of PCC frequency points, and the number of PCC frequency points is the number of PCC frequency points among the frequency points configured with L1 measurement on the network side.

[0178] In some implementations, if L1 measurement is not configured on the inactive SCC, the cell search module on the inactive SCC is shared with the active SCC, that is, the carrier scaling factor is the number of active SCCs + the number of inactive SCCs.

[0179] If the frequency corresponding to the above L1 measurement is within the bandwidth of the activated bandwidth part (Bandwidth Part, BWP) (including inter-frequency measurement within the activated BWP), the terminal needs to continue to perform L1 measurement on the SSB (which may correspond to a certain SSB number of a certain cell) configured with L1 measurement on the frequency point discovered in the most recent L3 measurement until the signal quality of the SSB does not meet the channel conditions required for the measurement, or the network cancels the L1 measurement configuration.

[0180] If the frequency point corresponding to the L1 measurement in the above SCC is outside the activated BWP bandwidth, that is, L1 measurement on the inactive SCC, if the terminal has discovered the SSB with sequence number X1 on cell A through the L3 measurement process within the duration X and completed the L3 measurement, then if the network configures the terminal to perform L1 measurement on SSB X1 of cell A, the terminal needs to complete the measurement as required; before SSB X1 of cell A is discovered and measured by the terminal through L3 measurement, the terminal has no L1 measurement requirement on the SSB, that is, L1 measurement is not required. Duration X is a fixed value, or a value obtained by taking a fixed multiple of the L3 measurement period. It should be noted that, unlike Figure 3 The difference is that the length of X can be longer than the period of L3 measurement actually performed at the frequency point; if X is longer than the actual L3 measurement period, it can be considered that the terminal needs to continuously perform L1 measurement at the frequency point; if X is shorter than the actual L3 measurement period, the terminal can perform L1 measurement within the length of X after each L3 measurement is completed;

[0181] For L1 measurement of FR1, it can be performed simultaneously with L3 measurement. There is no need to time-division multiplex SSB resources with L3 measurement. Both can be performed in the same time slot.

[0182] For L1 measurement of FR2, considering that the beams for measuring SSB are different, the SSB resources for L1 measurement and L3 measurement need to be time-division multiplexed. Specifically. For a non-activated SCC configured with L1 measurement, if it is determined based on X that the frequency layer needs to continue to perform L1 measurement, then, if the SSB period and SMTC period are exactly the same, L1 measurement occupies 1 / 3 of all SSB resources, L3 measurement occupies 2 / 3 of SSB resources, and the L1 and L3 measurement indicators on each frequency point are extended accordingly.

[0183] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, SSB-freq#1 is the L1 measurement configured on the inactive SCC, so the terminal has an L1 measurement requirement within the duration X. After the duration X is exceeded, the terminal no longer has an L1 measurement requirement because the SSB signal quality and time-frequency domain coarse synchronization information are likely to change. For SSB-freq#3, since it is an activated SCC, the terminal needs to continue to perform L1 measurement as long as the SSB is found in the L3 measurement.

[0184] For the inter-frequency L1 measurement outside the activated BWP, since such inter-frequency measurements can only be performed within the gap, when there are multiple frequency points that require inter-frequency L3 measurements, the frequency points configured with L1 measurements can only perform L3 measurements within the gap resources corresponding to the L3 measurements of that frequency point. This frequency point also participates in the calculation of the carrier sharing factor within the gap as one of the L3 frequency points. As Figure 4 shown, on multiple frequency points, assuming that the terminal needs L sampling points (Samples) to complete the relevant processes of L3 measurement, such as SSB search, SSB measurement, and SSB sequence detection, and K Samples are required for L1 measurement, then N gap represents the number of measurement intervals required for each frequency layer in each polling round. Within each duration of N gap long, the terminal needs to tune the radio frequency (RF) to the corresponding SSB frequency point to facilitate the start of the corresponding measurement.

[0185] For the L1 measurement of FR1, it can be performed simultaneously with the L3 measurement without time division multiplexing of the SSB resources with the L3 measurement. The two can be performed within the same gap. A possible implementation method is that in the definition of the measurement indicators within the inter-frequency gap of FR1, the measurement indicators of the inter-frequency L3 measurement of FR1 can be reused. For example:

[0186] After the terminal completes the L3 measurement, K samples are required to continue to complete the L1 measurement. The value of K is the same as that of the existing in-band L1 measurement; since K << L, the actual measurement period and measurement indicators on this subcarrier are the same as those of L3;

[0187] The carrier sharing factor of the inter-frequency L1 measurement is exactly the same as that of the L3 measurement.

[0188] If the time of the last L3 measurement of a certain reference signal on a certain inter-frequency point has exceeded the second duration Y, then the terminal can refrain from performing the L1 measurement on this reference signal before the next L3 measurement is completed; it can also be understood that when the actual L3 measurement period of a certain reference signal on a certain inter-frequency point exceeds the second duration Y, there are no L1 measurement indicators on this frequency point; the duration Y is a fixed value or a value obtained by taking a fixed multiple of the L3 measurement period.

[0189] For the inter-frequency L1 measurement of FR2, considering that the beams for measuring the SSB are different, the SSB resources for its L1 measurement and L3 measurement need to be time division multiplexed. Specifically, there are the following options:

[0190] Option 1: The time division multiplexing sharing mode of L1 measurement and L3 measurement is: L1 measurement is performed after L3 measurement. For the frequency point where both L3 measurement and L1 measurement are required, the measurement time at the frequency point is the sum of the L3 measurement time and the L1 measurement time. The total measurement time at all frequency points (including L3 measurement and L1 measurement) is the sum of the measurement time at each frequency point that needs to share the cell search module.

[0191] Option 2: The time division multiplexing sharing mode of L1 measurement and L3 measurement is: L1 measurement and L3 measurement are scaled by the sharing factor as a whole. For example, for an inactive SCC configured with L1 measurement, if the SSB period and SMTC period are exactly the same, L1 measurement occupies 1 / 3 of all SSB resources, L3 measurement occupies 2 / 3 of SSB resources, and the measurement indicators on each frequency point are extended accordingly.

[0192] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, 1 / 3 and 2 / 3 are exemplary illustrations, and other sharing factors may also be considered without limitation.

[0193] In some implementations, if the last L1 measurement of a reference signal on a different frequency point or an inactive SCC frequency point exceeds the third duration Z, and according to the network configuration, the terminal needs to send PRACH to the target cell in advance before the cell switching, that is, early PRACH, then the terminal needs to wait for an SSB to obtain downlink synchronization (that is, perform L3 measurement or L1 measurement) within Z ms before sending the PRACH, as shown in the following example. Figure 5 It is generally believed that Z = 160 [ms]

[0194] In some implementations, the terminal reports the interval between the actual execution time of the L1 measurement and the reporting time in the L1 reporting. This is mainly due to the consideration that Figure 3 or Figure 4 In the process, L1 measurement may not be always in progress, and some L1 measurements need to be within the gap. Therefore, even the most recent L1 measurement result may have a large interval with the reporting time. Reporting this information to the network is conducive to the network sending a handover decision or determining the approximate sending time of early RACH. The specific reporting method can be: reporting an X-bit code point to carry no more than 2X interval ranges.
