The following related technologies can be arbitrarily combined with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application as optional solutions, and they all belong to the protection scope of the embodiments of the present application.

[0041] ●Overview of 5G technology

[0042] With the pursuit of speed, latency, high-speed mobility, energy efficiency and the diversity and complexity of services in future life, the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) rdThe 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) international standard organization has begun to develop 5G. The main application scenarios of 5G are: enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC), and massive machine-type communications (mMTC).

[0043] On the one hand, eMBB still aims at users to obtain multimedia content, services and data, and its demand is growing rapidly. On the other hand, since eMBB may be deployed in different scenarios, such as indoors, in urban areas, and in rural areas, its capabilities and requirements vary greatly, so it cannot be generalized and must be analyzed in detail in combination with specific deployment scenarios. Typical applications of URLLC include: industrial automation, power automation, remote medical operations (surgery), traffic safety, etc. Typical features of mMTC include: high connection density, small data volume, latency-insensitive services, low cost and long service life of modules, etc.

[0044] In order to reduce air interface signaling and quickly restore wireless connections and data services, 5G defines a new Radio Resource Control (RRC) state, namely the RRC inactive (RRC_INACTIVE) state. This state is different from the RRC idle (RRC_IDLE) state and the RRC active (RRC_ACTIVE) state.

[0045] 1) RRC_IDLE state (abbreviated as idle state): Mobility is based on cell selection and reselection of terminal equipment, paging is initiated by the core network (CN), and the paging area is configured by the CN. There is no terminal equipment context on the base station side, and there is no RRC connection.

[0046] 2) RRC_CONNECTED state (referred to as connected state): There is an RRC connection, and there is a terminal device context on the base station side and the terminal device side. The network side knows the location of the terminal device at the specific cell level. The mobility is the mobility controlled by the network side. Unicast data can be transmitted between the terminal device and the base station.

[0047] 3) RRC_INACTIVE state (abbreviated as inactive state): Mobility is based on cell selection reselection of the terminal device, there is a connection between CN-NR, the terminal device context exists on a certain base station, paging is triggered by RAN, and the paging area based on RAN is managed by RAN. The network side knows the location of the terminal device based on the paging area level of RAN.

[0048] ●NR network deployment diagram

[0049] In order to increase the flexibility of non-public networks (NPN) deployment, NPN can be divided into stand-alone non-public networks (SNPN) and closed access groups (CAG). Among them, a SNPN network is identified by PLMN ID+NID, and a CAG network is identified by PLMN ID+CAG ID. It should be pointed out that PLMN ID+NID can also be understood as SNPN ID.

[0050] A Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) can simultaneously support any network sharing combination mode of ordinary public networks, SNPN networks and CAG networks, wherein an ordinary public network is identified by a PLMN ID. For example: a PLMN can independently support ordinary public networks, SNPN networks or CAG networks, or support ordinary public networks and SNPN networks sharing a PLMN network, and even ordinary public networks, SNPN networks and CAG networks sharing a PLMN network at the same time are allowed. The following Table 1 illustrates the network identification configuration that a cell may support. The parameters N / M / W in Table 1 are all positive integers greater than or equal to 1. Table 1 can more clearly reflect the logical deployment relationship between ordinary public networks, SNPN networks and CAG networks:

[0051]

[0052]

[0053] Table 1

[0054] As shown in Table 1, from the perspective of network configuration, a cell can simultaneously configure the PLMN ID list information of the public network and the NPN network identifier list information of the non-public network, but the NPN network identifier list information of the non-public network is an optional configuration. For a CAG type non-public network, one PLMN ID is allowed to be associated with one CAG ID list; for a SNPN type non-public network, one PLMN ID is allowed to be associated with one Network Identifier (NID) list.

[0055] ●Access control mechanism

[0056] The access control mechanism of the access network includes two levels: cell level and service type level, which are described below.

[0057] Cell-level access control mechanism: The main purpose of the cell-level access control mechanism is to indicate whether a terminal device can reside in the cell. As an example, the cell sends a system broadcast message, which carries a prohibition indication information. If the prohibition indication information indicates a prohibition state, no terminal device can reside in the cell. The system broadcast message is, for example, a Main Information Block (MIB).

[0058] Access control mechanism at the service type level: The main purpose of the access control mechanism at the service type level is to control different types of services to access the current service cell with different success probabilities, thereby reducing the possibility of system resource congestion. Of course, the terminal equipment that performs service type level access control must not be prohibited from staying by the cell level access control mechanism.

[0059] With the continuous expansion of communication scenarios in modern society, the types of terminal devices (referred to as terminal types) are also increasing, such as NB-IoT terminal types, eMTC terminal types, eMBB terminal types, IIoT terminal types, etc. In order to save the deployment cost of communication base stations, a cell often provides communication services for one or more types of terminal devices at the same time. A large number of terminal devices residing in a cell at the same time will cause congestion of cell resources, and the existing access control mechanism only controls according to the service type, and cannot solve the access priority problem between terminal types. To this end, the following technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are proposed.

[0060] It should be noted that the “terminal device” described in the embodiments of the present application may also be replaced by “terminal” or “user equipment”.

[0061] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a method for configuring access control information provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2As shown, the method for configuring the access control information includes the following steps:

[0062] Step 201: The network device sends access control information to the terminal device, and the terminal device receives the access control information sent by the network device, wherein the access control information includes resident indication information and / or at least one access control parameter, wherein the access control information is used by the terminal device to perform access control operations based on the terminal type.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, the access control information is sent from the network device to the terminal device via AS signaling. The network device here refers to an access network device, such as a base station. In some optional implementations, the AS signaling may be a system broadcast message or a dedicated signaling, and further, the dedicated signaling may be, for example, an RRC signaling.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, the access control information refers to the access control related information configured for the terminal type. The access control information includes resident indication information and / or at least one access control parameter.

[0065] In some optional implementations, the access control information includes residency indication information.

[0066] In some optional implementations, the access control information includes residency indication information and at least one access control parameter.

[0067] The content included in the access control information is described in detail below.

[0068] ●Resident Instruction Information

[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, the resident indication information can be sent by the network device to the terminal device through AS signaling. In some optional implementations, the AS signaling can be a system broadcast message or a dedicated signaling, and further, the dedicated signaling can be, for example, RRC signaling.

[0070] A) Configuration of resident indication information

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the resident indication information may be configured according to the cell granularity or according to the network identifier granularity.

[0072] 1) The resident indication information is configured according to the cell granularity.

[0073] When the resident indication information is configured at the cell granularity, different cells are associated with different resident indication information. For example, cell 1 is associated with resident indication information 1, and cell 2 is associated with resident indication information 2. For a cell, the resident indication information associated with the cell is used by the terminal device to determine whether it can reside in the network corresponding to the cell based on its terminal type.

[0074] In one example, in a network sharing scenario, a cell may support multiple operator networks (usually reflected by configuring multiple network identifiers in a cell). For this scenario, the network corresponding to a cell includes multiple operator networks supported by the cell. The resident indication information is configured at the cell granularity, and the resident indication information is applicable to all operator networks supported by the cell.

[0075] Table 2 illustrates that the resident indication information is configured at the cell granularity, and the cell-level configuration information at least includes the resident indication information and other cell-level configuration information, wherein the other cell-level configuration information includes, for example, the resident cell frequency configuration, the resident cell BWP configuration, etc. Since the resident indication information in Table 2 belongs to the cell-level configuration information, it is applicable to all operator networks supported by the cell.

[0076]

[0077] Table 2

[0078] 2) The resident indication information is configured according to the network identification granularity.

[0079] When the resident indication information is configured at the network identifier granularity, different network identifiers are associated with different resident indication information. For example, network identifier 1 is associated with resident indication information 1, and network identifier 2 is associated with resident indication information 2. For a network identifier, its associated resident indication information is used by the terminal device to determine whether it can reside in the network corresponding to the network identifier based on its terminal type.

[0080] In some optional implementations, the network identifier includes at least one of the following: a PLMN identifier (PLMN ID), a SNPN identifier (SNPN ID), and a CAG identifier (CAG ID). Among them, a PLMN ID can identify a common public network, a SNPN ID can identify a SNPN network, and a PLMN ID+CAG ID can identify a CAG network.

[0081] In one example, in a network sharing scenario, a cell may support multiple operator networks (usually reflected by configuring multiple network identifiers in a cell). For this scenario, the network corresponding to a cell includes multiple operator networks supported by the cell. The resident indication information is configured according to the granularity of the network identifier, and the resident indication information is applicable to the network corresponding to the network identifier.

[0082] Table 3 illustrates that the resident indication information is configured according to the network identifier granularity. The cell-level configuration information at least includes the network identifier-related configuration information and other cell-level configuration information. In the network sharing scenario, a cell may support multiple operator networks. Table 3 takes a cell supporting two PLMN networks, two SNPN networks, and two CAG networks as an example, wherein the PLMN network is identified by the PLMN ID, the SNPN network is identified by the SNPN ID, and the CAG network is identified by the PLMN ID+CAG ID. Furthermore, a SNPN ID is identified by the PLMN ID+NID. Since each resident indication information in Table 3 is associated with a network identifier, each resident indication information is applicable to a network corresponding to a network identifier.

[0083]

[0084] Table 3

[0085] B) Contents of the resident instruction information

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, the residency indication information is used by the terminal device to determine whether it can reside in the network provided by the network device according to its terminal device.

[0087] Specifically, the residency indication information includes at least one bit, each bit of the at least one bit is associated with at least one terminal type, and the value of the bit is used to indicate whether the terminal device corresponding to the at least one terminal type associated with the bit can reside in the network provided by the network device.

[0088] The value of the bit is a first value used to indicate that the terminal device corresponding to at least one terminal type associated with the bit can reside in the network provided by the network device; the value of the bit is a second value used to indicate that the terminal device corresponding to at least one terminal type associated with the bit is prohibited from residing in the network provided by the network device. As an example, the first value is 1 and the second value is 0; or the first value is 0 and the second value is 1.

[0089] Table 4 illustrates the content of the residency indication information, which includes N bits, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. Each of the N bits is associated with at least one terminal type, and the value of the bit determines whether the terminal device corresponding to at least one terminal type associated with the bit can reside in the network provided by the network device. For example: bit 1 is associated with terminal type 1, bit 2 is associated with terminal type 2 and terminal type 3, bit 1 is 1, and bit 2 is 0, which means that the terminal device corresponding to terminal type 1 is prohibited from residing in the network provided by the network device, while the terminal devices corresponding to terminal type 2 and terminal type 3 can reside in the network provided by the network device. Of course, this application does not exclude the situation where the meaning of the bit value is contrary to the above functional description.

[0090]

[0091] Table 4

[0092] C) The relationship between the bits in the resident indication information and the terminal type

[0093] In the embodiment of the present application, there is an association relationship (or a mapping relationship) between the bits in the resident indication information and the terminal type, and the association relationship between each bit in the resident indication information and the terminal type is a first association relationship.

[0094] In some optional implementations, the first association relationship is predefined. For example, a protocol specifies an association relationship between a bit in the resident indication information and a terminal type.

[0095] In some optional implementations, the first association relationship is configured by the network side through access layer AS signaling. The network side here refers to access network equipment, such as a base station. In some optional implementations, the AS signaling can be a system broadcast message or a dedicated signaling, and further, the dedicated signaling can be, for example, an RRC signaling.

[0096] In the embodiment of the present application, one bit in the resident indication information may be associated with one or more terminal types. It should be noted that the number of terminal types associated with different bits in the resident indication information may be different or the same.

[0097] In one example, the first association relationship is in a one-to-one form, that is, one bit in the resident indication information is associated with a terminal type. Table 5 illustrates the association relationship between the bits contained in the resident indication information and the terminal type. The association relationship is in a one-to-one form, that is, one bit is associated with a terminal type.

[0098] Resident indication information bit 1 Terminal Type 1 Resident indication information bit 2 Terminal Type 2 …… …… Resident indication information bit M Terminal Type M

[0099] Table 5

[0100] In one example, the first association relationship is in a one-to-many form, that is, one bit in the resident indication information is associated with multiple terminal types. Table 6 illustrates the association relationship between the bit contained in the resident indication information and the terminal type, and the association relationship is in a one-to-many form, that is, one bit is associated with multiple terminal types. Table 6 takes the terminal type including 6 terminal types as an example for explanation.

[0101]

[0102] Table 6

[0103] ●At least one access control parameter

[0104] In the embodiment of the present application, each access control parameter in the at least one access control parameter includes at least one of the following:

[0105] A first parameter, wherein the first parameter is used to determine whether a single access attempt is successful;

[0106] A second parameter, wherein the second parameter is used to determine the time length from when an access attempt is prohibited to when another access attempt is initiated.

[0107] Here, the first parameter can also be understood as a probability parameter for a terminal device to access the network in a single time. The terminal device can determine whether a single access attempt is successful based on the first parameter. In specific implementation, during an access attempt, the terminal device generates a random number between 0 and 1. If the random number is less than or equal to the first parameter, the access attempt is successful; if the random number is greater than the first parameter, the access attempt is prohibited. As an example, the first parameter is 0.8, and each access attempt initiated by the terminal device can be successful with a probability of 80%, which means that the probability of the terminal device accessing the network in a single time is 0.8.

[0108] Here, the second parameter can also be understood as a waiting time window parameter. Based on the second parameter, the terminal device can determine how long it will take to initiate an access attempt again after an access attempt is prohibited. The second parameter can explicitly indicate a duration, or it can also implicitly indicate a duration. As an example, the second parameter indicates X1 (for example, 3), then the terminal device needs to wait for X1 seconds before initiating an access attempt again after an access attempt is prohibited. As an example, the terminal device needs to wait for X2 seconds before initiating an access attempt again after an access attempt is prohibited, and X2 is calculated by a formula related to the second parameter, for example: X2 = (a1 + a2 × random number) × second parameter, a1 and a2 are constants, for example, a1 is 0.7, and a2 is 0.6.

[0109] ●The association between the resident indication information and at least one access control parameter

[0110] In an embodiment of the present application, when the access control information includes resident indication information and at least one access control parameter, there is an association relationship (or a mapping relationship) between the bits in the resident indication information and the access control parameter, and the association relationship between at least one bit in the resident indication information and the at least one access control parameter is a second association relationship, and the second association relationship includes at least one of the following relationships: each bit in the at least one bit is associated with one of the at least one access control parameters; one or more bits in the at least one bit are associated with one of the at least one access control parameters.

[0111] In some optional implementations, the second association relationship is predefined. For example, a protocol specifies an association relationship between bits in the resident indication information and access control parameters.

[0112] In some optional implementations, the second association relationship is configured by the network side through AS signaling. The network side here refers to access network equipment, such as a base station. In some optional implementations, the AS signaling can be a system broadcast message or a dedicated signaling, and further, the dedicated signaling can be, for example, an RRC signaling.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present application, one bit in the resident indication information may be associated with one access control parameter, or multiple bits in the resident indication information may be associated with one access control parameter.

[0114] In one example, the second association relationship is in a one-to-one form, that is, one bit in the resident indication information is associated with one access control parameter. Table 7 illustrates the association relationship between the bits contained in the resident indication information and the access control parameters. The association relationship is in a one-to-one form, that is, one bit is associated with one access control parameter.

[0115] Resident indication information bit 1 Access control parameters 1 Resident indication information bit 2 Access control parameter 2 …… …… Resident indication information bit M Access control parameter M

[0116] Table 7

[0117] In one example, the second association relationship is in a many-to-one form, that is, multiple bits in the resident indication information are associated with one access control parameter. Table 8 illustrates the association relationship between the bits included in the resident indication information and the access control parameter, and the association relationship is in a many-to-one form, that is, multiple bits are associated with one access control parameter. Table 8 is described by taking the resident indication information including 6 bits as an example.

[0118]

[0119] Table 8

[0120] It should be noted that each access control parameter may include the first parameter and / or the second parameter described in the aforementioned related solutions.

[0121] ●The terminal device performs access control operations based on the access control information

[0122] Behavior 1:

[0123] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device determines that its terminal type is a first terminal type; the terminal device determines that the first terminal type is associated with the first bit in the residency indication information based on the first association relationship; the terminal device determines whether the terminal device can reside in the network provided by the network device based on the value of the first bit.

[0124] Here, the terminal device may determine which terminal type it belongs to by the following method.

[0125] Method 1: The terminal device determines its corresponding terminal type through the capabilities it supports or the protocol pre-definition.

[0126] Specifically, the terminal device determines that its terminal type is the first terminal type based on capabilities supported by the terminal device; or, the terminal device determines that its terminal type is the first terminal type based on predefined information.

[0127] Here, the protocol can directly specify several terminal types, such as NB-IoT terminal type, eMTC terminal type, eMBB terminal type, IIoT terminal type, etc. The prescribed principle can take into account the capabilities supported by the terminal device, so that the terminal device can determine which terminal type it belongs to based on its own capabilities. Alternatively, the terminal device directly has its terminal type built into the terminal device as predefined information when it leaves the factory, so that the terminal device can determine which terminal type it belongs to based on the predefined information.

[0128] In some optional embodiments, the capabilities supported by the terminal device include at least one of the following: the maximum transmission power level supported by the terminal device; the application scenarios supported by the terminal device; the dual connection capability supported by the terminal device; the carrier aggregation capability supported by the terminal device; the bandwidth combination capability supported by the terminal device; the bandwidth size supported by the terminal device; whether the terminal device supports receiving services in the operator network to which it has signed a contract; the number of transmitting antennas supported by the terminal device; and the number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal device.

[0129] Among them, the application scenarios supported by the terminal device include: supporting only satellite communication capabilities, supporting only terrestrial communication capabilities, or supporting both terrestrial and satellite communication capabilities.

[0130] As an example, several terminal types are divided only according to the number of transmitting antennas and / or receiving antennas supported by the terminal device. For example: a terminal device with only one transmitting antenna and one receiving antenna belongs to terminal type 1; a terminal device with only one transmitting antenna and two receiving antennas belongs to terminal type 2; a terminal device with only one transmitting antenna and four or more receiving antennas belongs to terminal type 3; a terminal device with two or more transmitting antennas belongs to terminal type 4.

[0131] As an example, two or more dimensions may be considered simultaneously for terminal type classification, for example: a terminal device that supports a maximum transmit power of P1 and a minimum bandwidth of B1 belongs to terminal type 1, and a terminal device that supports a maximum transmit power of P2 and a minimum bandwidth of B2 belongs to terminal type 2. The logic of classifying terminal types in more dimensions is similar to the above example and will not be repeated here.

[0132] Method 2: The terminal device obtains its corresponding terminal type through the NAS process.

[0133] Specifically, the terminal device receives a non-access stratum (NAS) signaling sent by a network side, the NAS signaling being used to indicate that the terminal type of the terminal device is a first terminal type; the terminal device determines that its own terminal type is the first terminal type based on the NAS signaling. The network side here refers to a core network device.

[0134] As an example, see Figure 3 , the core network device sends NAS signaling to the terminal device, and the terminal device obtains its own terminal type through the NAS signaling. Optionally, the terminal device can report its own feature information to the core network device, so that the core network device can assign the terminal type of the terminal device according to the feature information of the terminal device, and then send the assigned terminal type to the terminal device through NAS signaling.

[0135] It should be noted that the way in which terminal devices obtain terminal types through NAS signaling is that the terminal type is not fixed, but is flexibly allocated through core network equipment. For example: when terminal device A receives services in core network 1, core network 1 considers that terminal device A belongs to terminal type 1 and informs terminal device A of terminal type 1 through NAS signaling; while when terminal device A receives services in core network 2, core network 2 considers that terminal device A belongs to terminal type 2 and informs terminal device A of terminal type 2 through NAS signaling.

[0136] The method of determining the terminal type through the core network device is both flexible and safe. Of course, before the terminal device receives the terminal type sent by the core network device through NAS signaling, it can also report the terminal device's own feature information to the core network device through uplink NAS signaling. These feature information at least include the capabilities of the terminal device, such as: CA capability, DC capability, supported bandwidth combination, etc. The feature information can also include the factory information of the terminal device or the pre-configured information of the manufacturer, etc. It should be emphasized that the core network device does not necessarily rely on the feature information reported by the terminal device when generating the terminal type information. In other words, Figure 3 Step 1 in is an optional step. It can be seen that the core network device can consider both the feature information reported by the terminal device and the local policy information of the core network when generating the terminal type information; or, the core network device only considers the local policy information of the core network when generating the terminal type information, and this application does not limit this.

[0137] The above-mentioned core network local policy information may include some operator policy information and some core network home access control policy information.

[0138] Behavior 2:

[0139] In the embodiment of the present application, after the terminal device determines whether the terminal device can reside in the network provided by the network device based on the value of the first bit, the following behaviors may be performed. It should be noted that, in the following behaviors, when behavior 2-1 is executed, behavior 2-2 and behavior 2-3 are not executed, or in other words, when at least one of behavior 2-2 and behavior 2-3 is executed, behavior 2-1 is not executed. In addition, only one of behavior 2-2 and behavior 2-3 may be executed, or both may be executed.

[0140] It should be noted that, in the following description, "can reside" can also be expressed as "allowed to reside" or "allowed to access". "Forbidden to reside" can also be expressed as "forbidden to access".

[0141] Act 2-1:

[0142] If the terminal device determines that the terminal device can reside in the network provided by the network device based on the value of the first bit, the terminal device determines that the first bit is associated with a first access control parameter among the at least one access control parameter based on the second association relationship; the terminal device determines whether the access attempt is successful based on the first access control parameter, and sends a signal to the network device if the access attempt is successful.

[0143] Here, the terminal device determines whether the access attempt is successful based on the first access control parameter. Please refer to the aforementioned description on "the first parameter and / or the second parameter in the access control parameter" and will not repeat it here.

[0144] Here, if the terminal device determines that the access attempt is passed based on the first access control parameter, a signal is sent to the network device. In an optional manner, the signal sent by the terminal device may be Msg1 (i.e., preamble) in a 4-step random access process. In another optional manner, the signal sent by the terminal device may be MsgA (i.e., preamble+PUSCH) in a 2-step random access process. In yet another optional manner, the signal sent by the terminal device may be PUSCH.

[0145] Act 2-2:

[0146] If the terminal device determines, based on the value of the first bit, that the terminal device is prohibited from residing in the network provided by the network device, then:

[0147] Option 1: The terminal device determines whether to allow searching for the same frequency point based on the same frequency search indication information in the system broadcast message; if it is determined that searching for the same frequency point is allowed, the terminal device searches for the same frequency point; if it is determined that searching for the same frequency point is not allowed, the terminal device is prohibited from searching for the same frequency point for a period of time; wherein the same frequency point refers to the same frequency point as the cell frequency point used by the network device. Or,

[0148] Option 2: The terminal device determines based on protocol regulations that searching for the same-frequency point is not allowed, and prohibits searching for the same-frequency point for a period of time; wherein the same-frequency point refers to the same frequency point as the cell frequency point used by the network device.

[0149] It should be noted that behavior 2-2 corresponds to the behavior of the same-frequency frequency point. If the terminal device determines that the terminal device is prohibited from residing in the network provided by the network device based on the value of the first bit, the terminal device can decide to search for the same-frequency frequency point or prohibit searching for the same-frequency frequency point for a period of time according to the same-frequency search indication information in the system broadcast message (such as MIB); or, the terminal device prohibits searching for the same-frequency frequency point for a period of time according to the protocol provisions.

[0150] Acts 2-3

[0151] If the terminal device determines, based on the value of the first bit, that the terminal device is prohibited from residing in the network provided by the network device, the terminal device determines one or more hetero-frequency points to search based on the hetero-frequency search auxiliary information in the system broadcast message; wherein the hetero-frequency point refers to a frequency point that is different from the cell frequency point used by the network device.

[0152] It should be noted that behavior 2-3 corresponds to the behavior of heterofrequency points. If the terminal device determines that the terminal device is prohibited from residing in the network provided by the network device based on the value of the first bit, the terminal device can decide which heterofrequency points to search first based on the heterofrequency search auxiliary information provided in the system broadcast message (such as MIB or SIB).

[0153] In some optional embodiments, the hetero-frequency search auxiliary information includes at least one of the following information of one or more hetero-frequency points: frequency point identification information, at least one physical cell identification (Physical Cell ID, PCI) information associated with the frequency point identification information, sub-carrier spacing (Sub-Carrier Spacing, SCS) information associated with the frequency point identification information, frequency band identification information associated with the frequency point identification information, measurement window configuration information associated with the frequency point identification information, and measurement window configuration correction auxiliary information associated with the frequency point identification information.

[0154] The above-mentioned measurement window refers to the measurement window of the reference signal. Taking the reference signal as the synchronization signal block (SS / PBCH Block, SSB) as an example, the measurement window is the SSB measurement timing configuration (SS / PBCH block measurement timing configuration, SMTC) window. However, it is not limited to this. The reference signal can also be other types, such as the Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS).

[0155] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application not only realizes the access control mechanism of a large number of terminal devices with different needs, reduces the probability of system resource congestion, but also gives the core network access control mechanism more flexibility.
