As long as the same technical effect is achieved, the base station is not limited to specific technical terms. It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example for introduction, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.

[0041] The following, in combination with the accompanying drawings, describes in detail the measurement report reporting method, apparatus, terminal, access network equipment and medium provided in the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0042] Currently, Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement is a basic function in mobile communication systems. The base station can perform operations such as mobility management and carrier management based on the RRM measurement mechanism. Specifically, the base station can configure the MO list, the report configuration (ie, ReportConfig) list, and the measurement ID list.

[0043] Each measurement ID is configured to link an MO with a report configuration, and each measurement ID can be considered as a "measurement task", as shown below:

[0044]

[0045] One MO corresponds to one measurement frequency point. The terminal can measure the reference signal of the cell corresponding to the frequency point, such as the synchronization signal block (SSB), the cell reference signal or the channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), etc., to obtain the measurement value of the cell on the frequency point.

[0046] A report configuration is used to configure the trigger-related parameters and reporting-related parameters of the measurement report, that is, to configure under what circumstances the measurement report is reported, what content is reported in the measurement report, etc. It includes report types, such as periodic reporting or event (i.e., event) triggered reporting, etc., among which typical event-triggered reporting includes the following:

[0047] Event A1: The serving cell signal is better than the threshold;

[0048] Event A2: The serving cell signal is worse than the threshold;

[0049] Event A3: The neighbor cell signal is better than the SpCell (i.e., special cell) signal by more than one offset;

[0050] Event A4: The neighboring cell signal is better than the threshold;

[0051] Event A5: The SpCell signal is worse than threshold 1, and the neighboring cell signal is better than threshold 2;

[0052] Event A6: The neighbor cell signal is better than the SCell signal by more than one offset;

[0053] Event B1: The signal of the neighboring cell of the different system is better than the threshold;

[0054] Event B2: The PCell (i.e., primary cell) signal is worse than threshold 1, and the heterogeneous system neighboring cell signal is better than threshold 2.

[0055] The base station can link more than one MO to the same reporting configuration by configuring multiple measurement IDs, and can also link multiple reporting configurations to the same MO.

[0056] After receiving a report configuration, the terminal can measure each frequency point specified by the MO in the measurement object list of the report configuration to obtain the measurement value of one or more cells on the frequency point. If an MO is associated with an event-triggered report (that is, there is a measurement ID corresponding to the MO, and the report type of the report configuration corresponding to the measurement ID is an event-triggered report), the terminal determines whether there is a cell signal at the frequency point that meets the entry conditions of the event. If the entry conditions are met, the terminal starts an event trigger duration timer (for example: Time To Trigger, TTT). Since the cell signal may fluctuate up and down, the TTT operation period can be an observation period to observe whether the cells that meet the event entry conditions meet the event entry conditions for a continuous period of time.

[0057] The TTT parameter refers to the time required to meet the event-specific conditions in order to trigger the measurement report. If the cell continues to meet the event entry conditions during the TTT operation, after the TTT times out, the terminal triggers the measurement report reporting of the measurement ID, which carries the cell ID and the measurement value of the cell. After receiving the measurement report, the base station can perform a target operation based on the measurement report, such as a switching operation.

[0058] However, the base station configures multiple frequencies for the terminal in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message, which is used to switch from 5G to 4G when Voice over Long-Term Evolution (voLTE) is required. For example, suppose the base station configures the terminal with frequencies f1, f2, and f3, where the cell corresponding to frequency f1 is optimized for voLTE. At this time, the operator hopes to switch to the cell corresponding to frequency f1 when the cell corresponding to frequency f1 meets the conditions. However, according to the current standard, which frequency point the terminal measures first depends on the implementation of the terminal; some terminals implement measurements in the order in which the frequencies appear in the RRC message, and the measurement report of the cell containing the f1 frequency point is triggered first, and the base station can switch the terminal to the cell corresponding to the f1 frequency point accordingly; some terminals are other implementations, and the measurement report of the cell corresponding to the f2 frequency point or the f3 frequency point is triggered first, and the base station switches the terminal to the cell corresponding to the f2 frequency point or the f3 frequency point accordingly; although the cell corresponding to the f1 frequency point also meets the conditions at this time, its measurement time is slightly later, so its measurement report is later than the measurement report corresponding to the f2 / f3 frequency point. At this time, the base station switches the terminal to the cell corresponding to the f2 / f3 frequency point based on the measurement report corresponding to the f2 / f3 frequency point, and cannot switch to the cell corresponding to the f1 frequency point that is most desired to switch to. In this way, how to effectively control the reporting order of measurement reports is a problem to be solved.

[0059] In order to solve the above problem, in the measurement report reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can receive the first information from the base station, the first information is used to determine the first condition for reporting the first measurement report, the first measurement report is the measurement report corresponding to the first measurement ID, the first measurement ID is associated with the first frequency point and the first report configuration, the first condition is associated with the second frequency point, and the second frequency point is different from the first frequency point; and the first operation can be performed based on whether the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continuously meets the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and based on whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition; wherein the first operation includes any one of the following: reporting the first measurement report; delaying reporting the first measurement report. Through this scheme, since the terminal can report or delay reporting the first measurement report based on whether the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continuously meets the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and based on whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition determined by the received first information, the reporting order of the measurement report can be effectively controlled.

[0093] In the embodiment of the present application, the measurement object ID corresponding to the first frequency point is the measurement object ID of the first measurement object, and the measurement object ID corresponding to the second frequency point is the measurement object ID of the second measurement object.

[0094] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first threshold value may be an event trigger threshold value configured for the second report.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present application, since the above-mentioned first information can include at least one of the above-mentioned 2.1 to 2.6, the priority of the terminal reporting the measurement report can be indicated by the content of different first information, thereby improving the flexibility of indicating the priority of the terminal reporting the measurement report.

[0096] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first condition may include any one of the following 3.1 to 3.4:

[0097] 3.1. The signal strengths of all cells corresponding to the second frequency point are less than or equal to the first threshold value;

There is no cell corresponding to the second frequency point that meets the second event entry condition related to the second report configuration (that is, the Time To Trigger corresponding to the second measurement ID is running), and the second report configuration is the report configuration associated with the second frequency point.

[0101] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, if the second frequency point includes multiple frequency points, the cell corresponding to the second frequency point includes: a cell corresponding to each frequency point in the multiple frequency points.

[0102] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first cell may also be referred to as the best cell corresponding to the second frequency point.

[0103] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above signal strength may also be referred to as signal quality.

[0104] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned signal strength can be indicated by the following indicators: signal to interference plus noise ratio (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, SINR), reference signal received power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP), carrier received signal strength (Received Signal Strength Indication, RSSI) or reference signal received quality (Reference Signal Receiving Quality, RSRQ), etc.

[0105] In the embodiment of the present application, the second event entry condition is a reporting trigger condition of the second measurement report (or second report configuration) associated with the second frequency point.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, since the above-mentioned first condition may include any one of the above-mentioned 3.1 to 3.4, different first conditions may be determined through the above-mentioned first information to control the reporting of the measurement report, thereby improving the flexibility of controlling the reporting of the measurement report.

[0107] Step 202: The terminal performs a first operation based on whether the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continuously satisfies the first event entry condition related to the first reporting configuration during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and based on whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point satisfies the first condition.

[0108] The first operation includes any one of the following:

[0109] Reporting the above first measurement report;

[0110] Delay reporting the first measurement report.

[0111] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the delayed reporting of the first measurement report also includes not reporting the first measurement report, that is, when the reporting conditions are not met, the first measurement report is never reported.

[0112] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first event entry condition is a reporting trigger condition of the first measurement report (or first report configuration) associated with the above-mentioned first frequency point.

[0113] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first event entry condition can be one of the above-mentioned events A1 to A6, event B1, and event B2, or the above-mentioned first report configuration is associated with one of the events A1 to A6, event B1, and event B2.

[0114] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the second event entry condition may be one of the events A1 to A6, event B1, and event B2, or the second report configuration may be associated with one of the events A1 to A6, event B1, and event B2.

[0115] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the order in which the terminal determines whether the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continues to meet the first event entry condition (hereinafter referred to as the first judgment) during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and determines whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition (hereinafter referred to as the second judgment) is not limited; that is, the terminal can execute the first judgment first and then the second judgment, or can execute the second judgment first and then the first judgment, or can execute the first judgment and the second judgment at the same time.

[0116] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, before the above-mentioned step 202, the terminal may first measure the above-mentioned first frequency point and the above-mentioned second frequency point, and obtain the measurement values ​​of the corresponding cells respectively; and then, when the measurement value of the cell corresponding to the above-mentioned first frequency point meets the above-mentioned first event entry condition, start the above-mentioned event trigger continuation timer.

[0117] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the above step 202 can be specifically implemented by the following steps 202a and 202b, or can be implemented by the following steps 202a and 202c.

[0118] Step 202a: When the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continuously satisfies the first event entry condition during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, the terminal determines whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point satisfies the first condition.

[0119] Step 202b: When the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition, the terminal reports a first measurement report.

[0120] Step 202c: When the cell corresponding to the second frequency point does not meet the first condition, the terminal delays reporting the first measurement report.

[0121] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, if the second frequency point includes multiple frequency points, then when the cells corresponding to each frequency point in the multiple frequency points meet the first condition, the terminal reports the first measurement report; or, when there is at least one cell corresponding to at least one frequency point in the multiple frequency points that does not meet the first condition, the terminal delays reporting the first measurement report.

[0122] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal first performs the above-mentioned first judgment and then performs the above-mentioned second judgment.

[0123] It should be noted that if the above-mentioned first report configuration includes the above-mentioned first information, and the first report configuration and the above-mentioned second report configuration are the same report configuration, that is, the first information is configured in the report configuration associated with the above-mentioned second measurement ID, and the first information indicates the second measurement ID or the above-mentioned second measurement object ID, then according to the impact of the first information on the measurement report reporting, at this time, the first information will affect the measurement report of the second measurement ID, resulting in the measurement report of the second measurement ID cannot be reported.

[0124] In order to avoid the above problems, for the measurement report reporting of the above-mentioned second measurement ID, when the Time To Trigger corresponding to the second measurement ID times out, if the above-mentioned first information indicates the second measurement ID or the above-mentioned second measurement object ID, the terminal can directly report the measurement report of the second measurement ID, or, in other words, if the second report configuration is configured with the first information, and the first information indicates the second measurement ID or the above-mentioned second measurement object ID, the terminal does not perform the second judgment, and directly reports the measurement report of the second measurement ID.

[0125] In an embodiment of the present application, since the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point of the terminal continues to meet the first event entry condition during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, the first measurement report is not directly reported, but the reporting or delayed reporting of the first measurement report is determined based on whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition. Therefore, by judging whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition, the reporting order of the terminal's measurement report is effectively controlled.

[0126] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above step 202 can be specifically implemented by the following step 202d.

[0127] Step 202d: When the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point of the terminal continuously meets the first event entry condition during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition, the terminal reports a first measurement report.

[0128] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal simultaneously executes the above-mentioned first judgment and the above-mentioned second judgment.

[0129] In the embodiment of the present application, since the terminal will only report the first measurement report if the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continuously meets the first event entry condition during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition, the reporting order of the terminal's measurement report can be effectively controlled by this condition.

[0130] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first operation includes delaying the reporting of the first measurement report. Exemplarily, the step 202 may be implemented by the following step A, step B, step C or step D.

[0131] Step A: The terminal continuously satisfies the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration based on the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and starts the first timer based on the fact that the cell corresponding to the second frequency point does not meet the first condition, and reports the first measurement report when the first timer times out.

[0132] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first timer may be the event trigger duration timer, that is, the Time To Trigger corresponding to the first measurement ID, or may be other timers.

[0133] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the timeout of the first timer means that the running time of the first timer has been reached, and the running time of the first timer can be the first time, the Time To Trigger time in the first measurement configuration, or an adjusted time based on the Time To Trigger time in the first measurement configuration.

[0134] Step B: The terminal continuously satisfies the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration based on the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and starts the second timer based on the fact that the cell corresponding to the second frequency point does not satisfy the first condition. When the second timer times out, if the cell corresponding to the second frequency point satisfies the first condition, the first measurement report is reported.

[0135] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the second timer may be a delay timer, and the running time of the delay timer may be the first time.

[0136] Step C: During the operation of the event trigger duration timer, the terminal continuously satisfies the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration based on the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point, and delays reporting the first measurement report based on the fact that the cell corresponding to the second frequency point does not satisfy the first condition until the cell corresponding to the second frequency point satisfies the first condition, and then reports the first measurement report.

[0137] Step D: The terminal continuously satisfies the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration based on the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and delays reporting the first measurement report based on the fact that the cell corresponding to the second frequency point does not satisfy the first condition, until the second measurement report associated with the second frequency point is reported, and then reports the first measurement report.

[0138] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, if the terminal delays reporting the first measurement report, the terminal may also report the first measurement report when the Time To Trigger corresponding to the second measurement ID times out or when the leaving condition corresponding to the second measurement ID is met.

[0139] In an embodiment of the present application, since the terminal delays reporting or does not report the above-mentioned first measurement report through any one of the above-mentioned steps A to D, the first measurement report can be reported only when different conditions are met, thereby effectively controlling the reporting order of the measurement reports.

[0140] In the measurement report reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application, since the terminal can report or delay reporting of the first measurement report based on whether the signal of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point continues to meet the first event entry condition related to the first report configuration during the operation of the event trigger duration timer, and based on whether the cell corresponding to the second frequency point meets the first condition determined by the received first information, the reporting order of the measurement reports can be effectively controlled.

[0141] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, before the above step 201, the measurement report reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include the following step 203.

[0142] Step 203: The terminal sends reporting capability information to the access network device.

[0143] Among them, the above-mentioned reporting capability information is used to indicate that the terminal supports reporting of measurement reports based on priority, and the above-mentioned first information is determined by the access network device based on the reporting capability information (for example, after the terminal sends the reporting capability information, the base station can configure the above-mentioned first information based on the above-mentioned capability information).

[0144] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned reported capability information may be information in the terminal access capability information sent by the terminal to the access network device.

[0145] In an embodiment of the present application, since the terminal can first send reporting capability information to the access network device to indicate that the terminal supports priority-based measurement report reporting before receiving the above-mentioned first information from the access network device, it is convenient for the access network device to determine the first information based on the reporting capability information, thereby reducing unnecessary signaling overhead.

[0146] This embodiment of the application provides another measurement report reporting method. Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing a method for reporting a measurement report provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the measurement report reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application may include the following steps 301 to 303.

[0147] Step 301: The terminal receives second information from an access network device.

[0148] Among them, the above-mentioned second information is used to indicate that the terminal reports the measurement information of all measured frequencies or the measurement information of the second frequency in the first measurement report. The first measurement report is a measurement report corresponding to the first measurement ID. The first measurement ID associates the first frequency and the first report configuration. The second frequency is a frequency different from the first frequency indicated by the access network device.

[0149] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned all measured frequency points may be: all measured frequency points configured by the access network device for the terminal, or some of the measured frequency points.

[0152] 4.2. The measurement object ID corresponding to the second frequency point;

[0153] 4.3. A first signal strength threshold, which is used to determine the signal strength of a cell.

[0154] In an embodiment of the present application, since the above-mentioned second information may include at least one of the above-mentioned 4.1 to 4.3, different second information can be used to indicate that the terminal reports the measurement information of all measured frequency points or the measurement information of the second frequency point in the first measurement report, thereby improving the flexibility of the measurement report content reported by the terminal.

[0155] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the second information may be: information in the first report configuration received by the terminal from the access network device.

[0156] In the embodiment of the present application, since the second information may be the information in the first report configuration, the second information may be sent to the terminal through the first report configuration, thereby saving signaling overhead.

[0157] Step 302: When the first measurement report is triggered to be reported, the terminal generates the first measurement report based on the second information.

[0158] The first measurement report includes measurement information of all the measured frequency points or measurement information of the second frequency point.

[0159] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first measurement report may include any one of the following 5.1 to 5.3:

[0161] 5.2. Cell ID and cell measurement value of the second cell;

[0162] 5.3. First indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that there is a cell at the second frequency point whose signal strength is greater than or equal to a first signal strength threshold.

[0163] The second cell may include any of the following:

[0164] The cell with the greatest signal strength among all the cells corresponding to the above-mentioned measured frequencies;

[0165] Among the cells corresponding to the second frequency point, the cell with the greatest signal strength;

[0166] Among the cells corresponding to all the measured frequency points, the cells whose signal strength is greater than or equal to the first signal strength threshold;

[0167] Among the cells corresponding to the above-mentioned second frequency point, the cells whose signal strength is greater than or greater than equal to the above-mentioned first signal strength threshold.

[0168] In an embodiment of the present application, since the above-mentioned first measurement report can include any one of the above-mentioned 5.1 to 5.3, the cell information corresponding to the second frequency point can be reported to the access network device while the measurement result corresponding to the first measurement ID is reported to the access network device, thereby increasing the cell selection of the access network device to effectively control the order of terminal reporting.

[0169] Step 303: The terminal sends a first measurement report to the access network device.

[0170] In the measurement report reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application, since the terminal can generate a first measurement report including measurement information of all measured frequencies or measurement information of the second frequency indicated by the access network device based on the received second information when the first measurement report is triggered to be reported, and send the first measurement report to the access network device, it is possible to send measurement information of multiple frequencies to the access network device via one measurement report, so that the access network device can select a better frequency for indication, thereby indirectly and effectively controlling the reporting order of the measurement reports.

[0193] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, before the above step 401, the measurement report reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps 402 and 403.

[0194] Step 402: The access network device receives the reported capability information from the terminal.

[0195] The above-mentioned reporting capability information is used to indicate that the terminal supports reporting of measurement reports based on priority.

[0196] Step 403: The access network device determines first information according to the reported capability information.

[0197] In an embodiment of the present application, since the access network device can determine the first information based on the reporting capability information from the terminal, which is used to indicate that the terminal supports the reporting of measurement reports based on priority, before sending the first information to the terminal, it can ensure that the terminal can report the measurement report based on priority after receiving the first information, thereby avoiding sending the first information to a terminal that does not support the reporting of measurement reports based on priority, thereby reducing unnecessary signaling overhead.
