[0105] In some embodiments, two measurement relaxation trigger conditions are introduced, one is the decision condition of the stationary or low mobility criteria, and the other is the decision condition of the not at the cell edge or good cell quality criteria. Both of these measurement relaxation trigger conditions are evaluated based on the measurement results of the serving cell. The UE that meets the criteria can perform relaxed radio resource management (Radio Resource management, RRM) measurement on the neighboring cell; the relaxed measurement can be a measurement with an extended measurement period.

[0106] In some embodiments, the RRM measurement of the idle or inactive inter-frequency neighboring cell will be configured with frequency priority. The measurement of the relatively high priority frequency layer may include one of the following: when Srxlev>SnonIntraSearchP and Squal>SnonIntraSearchQ, the UE performs a relatively high priority frequency layer search; when Srxlev≤SnonIntraSearchPand Squal≤SnonIntraSearchQ, the UE performs measurement on all carriers (i.e., without distinguishing priorities). Alternatively, a high priority relaxation switch is defined, and when the switch is configured, the UE relaxes the measurement of the relatively high priority frequency layer when the measurement relaxation conditions are met.

[0107] In some embodiments, the stationary or low mobility criterion is: within a certain time (T SearchDeltaP ), if the difference between the reference received signal quality and the UE's current RSRP is less than a preset threshold (S SearchDeltaP ), which means that the signal change amplitude is not large, and it can be considered that the current UE is in a stationary or low mobility criterion. The judgment condition is: (Srxlev Ref -Srxlev) SearchDeltaP ; Where Srxlev = Srxlev of the current serving cell, in dB; Srxlev Ref = Srxlev reference value of the current serving cell, in dB. Set as follows: UE selects or reselects a new cell; (Srxlev - Srxlev Ref >0); in T SearchDeltaP The judgment conditions were not met.

[0108] In some embodiments, the criterion of not being at the cell edge or having good cell quality is: if the current Srxlev of the UE is greater than the threshold value S searchThresholdP And Squal is greater than the threshold value S searchThresholdQ (if configured), the UE is considered to meet the criteria of not being at the cell edge or having good cell quality. The judgment condition is: Srxlev>S searchThresholdP And Squal>S searchThresholdQ ​(if configured); where Srxlev = Srxlev of the current serving cell, in dB; Squal = Squal of the current serving cell, in dB.

[0109] In some embodiments, a separate transceiver (low power wake-up receiver, LP-WUR) is introduced to receive a power-saving signal (e.g., a low power wakeup signal (low power Wakeup Signal, LP-WUS)). For example, the UE monitors the wakeup signal sent by the base station through a separate transceiver in an idle state. If the UE receives the wakeup signal, the UE will turn on the paging physical downlink control channel (Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH) monitoring function of the main transceiver (main receiver, MR); or, if the wakeup signal is not received, the UE will not turn on the main transceiver.

[0110] In some embodiments, a UE supporting LP-WUR introduces a new measurement reference signal, such as a Low Power Synchronization Signal (LP-SS), and LP-WUR performs measurements on LP-SS to ensure synchronization. When the UE is in an idle or inactive state, it can perform RRM measurements of the service cell based on LP-SS. At this time, the MR's measurement may be fully offloaded to the LR (ie, case 1), or partially offloaded to the LR (ie, case 3), and the MR is performing relaxed measurements; the case in which the MR is performing relaxed measurements is shown in Table 1 below.

[0111] RRM Measurement Situation Index MR service cell measurement MR neighbor cell measurement LR measurement case1: Uninstall all closure closure Open case3: Partial uninstall Start relaxation measurement Start relaxation measurement Open

[0112] Table 1

[0113] Regarding the scenario of case 3, since both LR and MR are enabled, it is not yet determined whether the terminal uses LR to monitor LP-WUS or directly uses MR to monitor paging messages. It is also uncertain how the terminal switches between various states.

[0114] In some embodiments, the UE may be a terminal, or the terminal may be a UE.

[0115] like Figure 2A FIG. 1 is an interactive schematic diagram of an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2A As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to an information processing method used in an information processing system 100, and the method includes:

[0116] Step S2101: The network device sends first information to the terminal.

[0117] In some embodiments, the terminal receives first information sent by the network device.

[0118] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate criteria for the terminal to enter different states.

[0119] Optionally, the state is whether the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver of the terminal is turned on.

[0120] Exemplarily, the first transceiver is used to receive a wake-up signal, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second transceiver of the terminal.

[0121] Exemplarily, the wake-up signal may be any low-power wake-up signal or a low-power power-saving signal. Exemplarily, the wake-up signal may be a low-power wake-up signal (LP-WUS) or a DCP signal. Exemplarily, the name of the wake-up signal is not limited, and may be, for example, a low-power power-saving signal, a low-power power-saving signal, a low-power wake-up signal, or a low-power wake-up signal.

[0122] Exemplarily, the first transceiver may be a separate transceiver; and / or, the second transceiver may be a main transceiver.

[0123] Exemplarily, the first transceiver and the second transceiver may have the functions of receiving and transmitting at the same time; or, the first transceiver and the second transceiver may only have the function of receiving.

[0124] Exemplarily, the power consumption of the first transceiver is less than the power consumption of the second transceiver. The power consumption of the first transceiver is less than the power consumption of the second transceiver, which can be: the power consumed by the first transceiver to receive and / or send information is less than the power consumption consumed by the second transceiver to receive and / or send information. For example, the first transceiver consumes less power to decode each signal than the second transceiver to decode the same signal.

[0125] Illustratively, the structure of the first transceiver is very simple relative to the structure of the second transceiver.

[0126] Exemplarily, the first transceiver may be a first receiver; and / or, the second transceiver may be a second receiver.

[0127] Exemplarily, the first transceiver is an auxiliary transceiver, and the second transceiver is a main transceiver. The auxiliary transceiver is used to assist the main transceiver in receiving and / or sending information.

[0128] Optionally, the state may include one of the following: a first state, a second state, a third state, and a fourth state. The first state may be the state in case 1 in the previous embodiment; the second state may be the state in case 3 in the previous embodiment.

[0130] Exemplarily, the first state is: the first transceiver of the terminal is turned on and monitors the wake-up signal, and the second transceiver of the terminal is in a dormant state. When the terminal is in the first state, it stops using the second transceiver to monitor the paging message.

[0131] Exemplarily, the second state is a state in which the first transceiver is turned on and the second transceiver is activated.

[0132] Exemplarily, the third state is a state in which the first transceiver does not monitor the wake-up signal and the second transceiver is in an activated state.

[0133] Exemplarily, the fourth state is: the second transceiver is in an activated state.

[0134] Exemplarily, the first type of second state is a state in which the first transceiver is used to monitor the wake-up signal and the second transceiver is not used to monitor the paging message.

[0135] Exemplarily, the second state of the second category is a state in which the first transceiver is not used to monitor the wake-up signal and the second transceiver is used to monitor the paging message.

[0136] In some embodiments, the first state corresponds to a first criterion; the second state corresponds to a second criterion; and the third state corresponds to a third criterion.

[0137] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate at least one of: a first criterion for entering the first state; a second criterion for entering the second state; and a third criterion for entering the third state.

[0138] Optionally, the first criterion is: a good cell quality criterion or a low mobility criterion based on the first transceiver, and / or, a good cell quality criterion or a low mobility criterion based on the second transceiver. Exemplarily, the first criterion is: a good cell quality criterion or a low mobility criterion based on the first transceiver, and a good cell quality criterion or a low mobility criterion based on the second transceiver.

[0139] Optionally, the second criterion is: based on the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion of the first transceiver, and / or, based on the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion of the second transceiver. Exemplarily, the first criterion is: based on the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion of the second transceiver.

[0140] Optionally, the third criterion is: based on a good cell quality criterion or a low mobility criterion of the terminal.

[0141] Optionally, the signal quality threshold value of the first criterion is higher than the signal quality threshold value of the second criterion, and / or the signal quality threshold value of the second criterion is higher than the signal quality threshold value of the third criterion. Here, the relaxation degree of the first criterion is higher than the relaxation degree of the second criterion, and the relaxation degree of the second criterion is higher than the relaxation degree of the third criterion; that is, the condition for satisfying the first criterion is stricter than the condition for satisfying the second criterion, and satisfying the second criterion is stricter than the condition for satisfying the third criterion.

[0142] Optionally, the signal quality change amplitude of the first criterion is smaller than the signal quality change amplitude of the second criterion, and / or the signal quality change amplitude of the second criterion is smaller than the signal quality change amplitude of the third criterion.

[0143] Optionally, the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion based on the first transceiver refers to: the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion determined based on the measurement performed by the first transceiver; the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion based on the second transceiver refers to: the good cell quality criterion or low mobility criterion determined based on the measurement performed by the second transceiver; the reference signal measured based on the first transceiver and the reference signal measured based on the second transceiver are different.

[0144] Exemplarily, the good cell quality criterion may also be a not-at-cell-edge criterion; the low mobility criterion may also be a stationary criterion. The good cell quality criterion may be the good cell quality criterion in the previous embodiment; the low mobility criterion may be the previous low mobility criterion.

[0145] Exemplarily, a good cell quality criterion: if the received strength of the reference signal is greater than a first preset threshold value, it is considered that the signal quality of the cell is good.

[0146] Exemplarily, the parameters used to determine whether the cell quality criterion is met (e.g., the first preset threshold value) may include, but are not limited to, at least one of the following: an intra-frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchP), an intra-frequency measurement signal quality threshold (SIntraSearchQ), an inter-frequency or inter-system level threshold (SnonIntraSearchP), and an inter-frequency or inter-system measurement signal quality threshold (SnonIntraSearchQ). For example, for intra-frequency measurement, the cell level (Srxlev) is greater than the intra-frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchP), and the cell quality (Squal) is greater than the intra-frequency measurement signal quality threshold (SIntraSearchQ), that is, the cell signal quality criterion is met; or, for inter-frequency or inter-system measurement, the cell level (Srxlev) is greater than the inter-frequency or inter-system level threshold (SnonIntraSearchP), and the cell quality (Squal) is greater than the inter-frequency or inter-system measurement signal quality threshold (SnonIntraSearchQ), that is, the cell signal quality criterion is met.

[0147] Exemplarily, the same-frequency level threshold, same-frequency measurement signal quality threshold, heterofrequency or heterosystem level threshold, and heterofrequency or heterosystem measurement signal quality threshold of the first criterion may be higher than the same-frequency level threshold, same-frequency measurement signal quality threshold, heterofrequency or heterosystem level threshold, and heterofrequency or heterosystem measurement signal quality threshold of the second criterion, respectively; the same-frequency level threshold, same-frequency measurement signal quality threshold, heterofrequency or heterosystem level threshold, and heterofrequency or heterosystem measurement signal quality threshold of the second criterion may be higher than the same-frequency level threshold, same-frequency measurement signal quality threshold, heterofrequency or heterosystem level threshold, and heterofrequency or heterosystem measurement signal quality threshold of the third criterion, respectively.

[0148] Exemplarily, low mobility criterion: if the difference between the reference signal reception strength and the signal reception strength of the serving cell within a predetermined time is less than a second preset threshold value, it is considered that the terminal is in a low mobility state.

[0150] Exemplarily, the first criterion may be Rel19 criteria1; the second criterion may be Rel19 criteria3; and the third criterion may be Rel-16 / Rel-17 relaxation criteria.

[0151] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate a criterion of at least one state.

[0152] Optionally, the first information is used to indicate criteria corresponding to entering at least two states respectively.

[0153] Optionally, different information elements (IE) of the first information are used to indicate criteria for entering different states.

[0154] Optionally, different bits of the same information unit of the first information are used to indicate criteria of different states.

[0155] Exemplarily, the first information includes a first IE and a second IE, wherein the first IE is used to indicate a criterion for entering the first state, and the second IE is used to indicate a criterion for entering the second state.

[0156] Exemplarily, the first information includes a first IE, wherein when the first IE is a first bit, it is used to indicate criteria for entering a first state, when the first IE is a bit, it is used to indicate criteria for entering a second state, or when the first IE is a third bit, it is used to indicate criteria for at least entering a third state.

[0157] In some embodiments, the name of the first information is not limited, and it can be, for example, criterion indication information or criterion indication information of a status, etc.

[0158] Step S2102: The terminal determines the state of the terminal.

[0159] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the state the terminal is in based on criteria satisfied by the terminal and / or capabilities supported by the terminal.

[0160] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the criteria that are satisfied based on the first information.

[0161] Optionally, the terminal determines that the terminal is in the first state based on the terminal satisfying a first criterion.

[0162] Optionally, the terminal determines that the terminal is in the second state based on the terminal satisfying a second criterion.

[0163] Optionally, the terminal determines that the terminal is in the third state based on the terminal satisfying a third criterion.

[0164] Exemplarily, the terminal measures a reference signal based on the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver to obtain a measurement value, and determines whether the measurement value meets a first criterion (for example, whether the measurement value is greater than a preset threshold value); if the first criterion is met, it is determined that the terminal is in a first state.

[0165] Exemplarily, the terminal measures a reference signal based on the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver to obtain a measurement value, and determines whether the measurement value meets a second criterion (for example, whether the measurement value is greater than a preset threshold value); if the second criterion is met, it is determined that the terminal is in the second state.

[0166] Exemplarily, the terminal measures a reference signal based on the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver to obtain a measurement value, and determines whether the measurement value meets a third criterion (for example, whether the measurement value is greater than a preset threshold value); if the third criterion is met, it is determined that the terminal is in a third state.

[0167] Optionally, the terminal determines that the terminal is in a state corresponding to any one of the at least two criteria based on the terminal satisfying at least two criteria.

[0168] Optionally, the terminal determines that the terminal is in the most relaxed state among the states corresponding to the at least two criteria based on the terminal satisfying at least two criteria, wherein the relaxation degree of the first state is higher than the relaxation degree of the second state, and the relaxation degree of the second state is higher than the relaxation degree of the third state.

[0169] Exemplarily, if the terminal satisfies the first criterion and the second criterion, it can be determined that the terminal is in a first state corresponding to the first criterion or in a second state corresponding to the second criterion.

[0170] Exemplarily, if the terminal satisfies the first criterion and the second criterion, since the relaxation degree of the first state corresponding to the first criterion is higher than the relaxation degree of the second state corresponding to the second criterion, it can be determined that the terminal is in the first state.

[0171] Optionally, the terminal determines whether to be in the first state based on whether the terminal satisfies the first criterion based on whether the first information indicates the first criterion and the terminal supports the first state.

[0172] Exemplarily, the first information sent by the network device indicates a first criterion for entering the first state; if the terminal supports the first state and satisfies the first criterion, it is determined that the terminal is in the first state, or if the terminal supports the first state but does not satisfy the first criterion, it is determined that the terminal is not in the first state. Of course, in other embodiments, if the terminal does not support the first state, it is not in the first state.

[0173] Optionally, the terminal determines whether to be in the second state based on whether the terminal satisfies the second criterion based on whether the first information indicates the second criterion and the terminal supports the second state.

[0174] Exemplarily, the first information sent by the network device indicates the second criterion for entering the second state; if the terminal supports the second state and satisfies the second criterion, it is determined that the terminal is in the second state, or if the terminal supports the second state but does not satisfy the second criterion, it is determined that the terminal is not in the second state. Of course, in other embodiments, if the terminal does not support the second state, it is not in the second state.

[0175] In some optional embodiments, the first terminal determines a first operation. The first operation includes at least one of the following: the terminal is in a measurement mode in different states; the terminal switches between different states.

[0176] Step S2103: The terminal determines the measurement mode when the terminal is in different states.

[0177] In some optional embodiments, the terminal determines the behavior of the terminal in different states. Optionally, the behavior of the terminal in different states may include at least one of the following: whether the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver are turned on, the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver monitors, the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver measures, etc. Optionally, the measurement mode of the terminal in different states is one of the behaviors of the terminal in different states.

[0178] Optionally, the measurement method in the first state is at least one of the following: a method of using the first transceiver to measure the serving cell; a method of stopping using the second transceiver to measure the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell.

[0179] Optionally, the measurement method in the second state is: a method of measuring the serving cell using the first transceiver; a method of measuring the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell using the second transceiver. Exemplarily, the measurement method of the first type of the second state is: a method of measuring the serving cell using the first transceiver; and / or a method of measuring the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell using the second transceiver. Exemplarily, the measurement method of the second type of the second state is: a method of relaxing the measurement of the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell using the second transceiver.

[0180] Optionally, the measurement method in the third state is: using the second transceiver to perform relaxed measurement on the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell.

[0181] Optionally, the measurement method in the fourth state is: using the second transceiver to measure the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell.

[0182] Step S2104: The terminal determines the switching of the terminal between different states.

[0183] In some embodiments, the terminal determines that the terminal switches step by step between the first state, the second state, the third state and the fourth state, or the terminal determines that the terminal switches step by step between the first state, the second state, the third state and the fourth state.

[0184] In some embodiments, when the terminal is in the first state and does not meet the first criterion, the terminal switches to one of the second state, the third state and the fourth state, wherein the second state includes the first type second state or the second type second state.

[0185] Optionally, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state when the terminal is in the first state and does not meet the first criterion, and when the terminal meets the second criterion and supports the second state. Here, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state.

[0186] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first state and does not meet the first criterion, and does not meet the second criterion and / or does not support the second state, the terminal determines whether the terminal meets the third criterion and supports the third state, and switches to the third state when the terminal meets the third criterion and supports the third state. Here, the terminal switches from the first state to the third state; or, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state, and from the second state to the third state.

[0187] Optionally, the terminal switches to the fourth state when the terminal is in the first state and does not meet the first criterion, and when the terminal does not meet the third criterion and / or does not support the third state. Here, the terminal switches from the first state to the fourth state; or, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state, from the second state to the third state, and from the third state to the fourth state.

[0188] Exemplarily, determining whether the terminal satisfies the third criterion and supports the third state may be replaced by: executing a first judgment, where the first judgment is a judgment of whether the terminal satisfies the third criterion and supports the third state.

[0189] Exemplarily, the terminal can realize step-by-step transitions among the first state, the second state, the third state, and the fourth state. The step-by-step transitions can realize switching from a strong to a weak relaxation level, for example, the relaxation level of the first state is higher than that of the second state, the relaxation level of the second state is higher than that of the third state, and the relaxation level of the third state is higher than that of the fourth state.

[0190] Exemplarily, the terminal can implement a cross-level transition from the first state to the third state, or from the first state to the fourth state, or from the second state to the fourth state. During the cross-level transition, the power saving conditions between the states are not much different, so the first state can be switched to the second state, the third state, or the fourth state, etc.

[0191] For example, Figure 2B or Figure 2C As shown, the state of the terminal may include one of the following: the first state (case 1), the second state (case 3), the third state (RRM relaxation) and the fourth state (non-RRM relaxation); the first state: the first transceiver (i.e., LR) is turned on, the LR is paging, and the second transceiver (i.e., MR) is turned off; the second state: the LR is turned on, the LR is paging, and the MR belongs to relaxation state 1; the third state: the LR is turned off, the MR is paging, and the MR belongs to relaxation state 2; the fourth state: the LR is turned off, the MR is paging, and the MR is not relaxed. Here, RRM relaxation can be RRM measurement relaxation, and non-RRM can be non-RRM measurement relaxation; relaxation state 1 can be measurement relaxation state 1, and relaxation state 2 can be measurement relaxation state 2. If the terminal meets the first criterion (e.g., Rel19 criteria 1), it is in the first state; or, if the terminal meets the second criterion (Rel19 criteria 3), it is in the second state; or, if the terminal meets the third criterion (Rel-16 / Rel-17 relaxation criteria), it is in the third state.

[0192] Figure 2B The figure shows the situation for the second state of the first category (i.e., state 2-1); Figure 2C The illustrated case is for the second state of the second type (ie, state 2-2).

[0193] For example, Figure 2B or Figure 2C As shown, when the terminal does not meet the first criterion (Not fulfilling Rel19 relaxation criteria1for case1) in the first state, the second transceiver (such as MR) can be awakened for measurement, and the second state, the third state and the fourth state can be switched according to the measurement result. For example, when the terminal does not meet the first criterion in the first state but meets the second criterion, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state; or, when the terminal does not meet the second criterion (Not fulfilling Rel19 relaxation criteria3 for case3) in the second state and meets the third criterion, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state; or, when the terminal does not meet the third criterion (Not fulfilling Rel-16 / Rel-17 relaxation criteria) in the third state, the terminal switches from the third state to the fourth state. Here, a step-by-step transition from the first state to the second state, from the second state to the third state, and from the third state to the fourth state is achieved.

[0194] That is, the terminal switches to the second state if the second criterion is met and the second state is supported; or, if the second criterion is not met and / or the second state is not supported, the terminal determines whether the third criterion is met and whether the third state is supported, and switches to the third state if the third criterion is met and the third state is supported; or, if the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, the terminal switches to the fourth state.

[0195] Exemplarily, when the terminal does not meet the first criterion in the first state, but meets the second criterion and supports the second state, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state; or, when the terminal does not meet the second criterion and does not support the second state, it determines whether the third criterion is met and whether the third state is supported, and when the third criterion is met and the third state is supported, the terminal switches from the first state to the third state, or, when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, the terminal switches from the first state to the fourth state. Here, a cross-level transition from the first state to the third state, or from the first state to the fourth state, is implemented.

[0196] For example, Figure 2B or Figure 2C As shown, the state of the terminal can also transition step by step from right to left; for example, when the terminal is in the fourth state and meets the third criterion, it switches from the fourth state to the third state; or, when the terminal is in the third state and meets the second criterion, it switches from the third state to the second state; or, when the terminal is in the second state and meets the first criterion, it switches from the second state to the first state.

[0197] In some embodiments, when the terminal is in the second state and does not meet the second criterion, the terminal switches to one of the third state and the fourth state.

[0198] Optionally, the terminal switches to the third state when the terminal is in the second state and does not meet the second criterion, and when the terminal meets the third criterion and supports the third state.

[0199] Optionally, the terminal switches to the fourth state when the terminal is in the second state and does not meet the second criterion, and when the terminal does not meet the third criterion and / or does not support the third state. Here, the terminal switches from the second state to the fourth state; or, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state, and the third state switches to the fourth state.

[0200] For example, Figure 2B or Figure 2CAs shown, when the terminal does not satisfy the second criterion (Not fulfillingRel19 relaxation criteria3for case3) in the second state, the second transceiver can be awakened for measurement, and the third state and the fourth state can be switched according to the measurement result. For example, when the second state does not satisfy the second criterion but satisfies the third criterion, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state; or, when the third state does not satisfy the third criterion, the terminal switches from the third state to the fourth state. Here, a step-by-step transition from the second state to the third state and from the third state to the fourth state is realized.

[0201] That is, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state when the third criterion is met and the third state is supported; or switches from the third state to the fourth state when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported.

[0202] Exemplarily, when the terminal does not meet the second criterion in the second state, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state if the terminal meets the third criterion and supports the third state; or, when the terminal does not meet the third criterion and / or does not support the third state, the terminal switches from the second state to the fourth state. Here, a cross-level transition from the second state to the fourth state is implemented.

[0203] In some embodiments, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, the terminal switches from the first state to one of the third state and the fourth state.

[0204] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, and when a third criterion is met and the third state is supported, the terminal switches from the first state to the third state.

[0205] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, and when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, the terminal switches from the first state to the fourth state.

[0206] For example, Figure 2B As shown, when the terminal is in the first state and monitors the wake-up signal (LP-WUS), the second transceiver can be awakened for measurement, and the third state and the fourth state can be switched according to the measurement result. For example, when the terminal does not meet the second criterion in the first state but meets the third criterion, the terminal switches from the first state to the third state; or, when the terminal does not meet the third criterion in the first state, the terminal switches from the first state to the fourth state.

[0207] That is, the terminal switches from the first state to the third state when the third criterion is met and the third state is supported; or switches from the first state to the fourth state when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported.

[0208] In some embodiments, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and monitors the wake-up signal, the terminal switches from the first state to one of the second state of the second type, the third state and the fourth state.

[0209] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, and when the second criterion is met and the second type of second state is supported, the terminal switches from the first state to the second type of second state (e.g., state 2-2).

[0210] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, and when the second criterion is not met and the second state is not supported, the terminal determines whether the terminal meets the third criterion and supports the third state, and switches from the first state to the third state if the terminal meets the third criterion and supports the third state.

[0211] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, and when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, the terminal switches from the first state to the fourth state.

[0212] For example, Figure 2C As shown, when the terminal is in the first state and monitors the wake-up signal (LP-WUS), the second transceiver can be awakened for measurement, and the second state, the third state and the fourth state can be switched according to the measurement result. For example, when the first state does not meet the first criterion but meets the second criterion, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state (for example, state 2-2); or, when the first state does not meet the second criterion but meets the third criterion, the terminal switches from the first state to the third state; or, when the first state does not meet the third criterion, the terminal switches from the first state to the fourth state.

[0213] That is, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state when the second criterion is met and the second state is supported; or the terminal switches from the first state to the third state when the second criterion is not met and / or the second state is not supported, and switches from the first state to the third state when the third criterion is met and the third criterion is supported. Optionally, the terminal switches from the third state to the fourth state when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, or switches from the first state to the fourth state.

[0214] In some embodiments, when the terminal is in the second state and is monitoring, the terminal switches from the second state to one of the third state and the fourth state.

[0215] Optionally, when the terminal is in the first type second state and the first transceiver monitors and detects a wake-up signal, the terminal switches from the first type second state to one of the third state and the fourth state.

[0216] Optionally, when the terminal is in the second state of the second type and the second transceiver monitors a paging message, the terminal switches from the second state of the second type to one of the third state and the fourth state.

[0217] Optionally, when the terminal is in the second state and is monitoring, and when a third criterion is met and the third state is supported, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state.

[0218] Exemplarily, when the terminal is in the first type second state and the second transceiver monitors the paging message, and when the third criterion is met and the third state is supported, the terminal switches from the first type second state to the third state.

[0219] Exemplarily, when the terminal is in the second state of the second category and the second transceiver is monitoring a paging message, and when the third criterion is met and the third state is supported, the terminal is switched from the second state of the second category to the third state.

[0220] Optionally, when the terminal is in the second state and is monitoring, and when the third criterion is not met and the third state is not supported, the terminal switches from the second state to the fourth state.

[0221] Exemplarily, when the terminal is in the first category second state and the second transceiver monitors the paging message, and when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, the terminal switches from the first category second state to the fourth state.

[0222] Exemplarily, when the terminal is in the second state of the second category and the second transceiver monitors the paging message, and when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported, the terminal switches from the second state of the second category to the fourth state.

[0223] For example, Figure 2B or Figure 2CAs shown, when the terminal is in the second state and monitors the wake-up signal (LP-WUS), the second transceiver can be awakened to perform measurements, and the third state and the fourth state can be switched according to the measurement results. For example, when the second state does not meet the second criterion but meets the third criterion, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state; or, when the second state does not meet the third criterion, the terminal switches from the second state to the fourth state. Figure 2B As shown, the terminal is in the first category second state; Figure 2C As shown, the terminal is in the second state of the second category.

[0224] That is, the terminal switches from the second state to the third state when the third criterion is met and the third state is supported; or, the terminal switches from the second state to the fourth state when the third criterion is not met and / or the third state is not supported.

[0283] The information processing method of the present disclosure includes the following:

[0284] Embodiment 1: The terminal determines the behavior and conversion relationship of the terminal in different power saving modes.

[0285] Optionally, different node modes may be different states in the previous embodiments; the behavior and conversion relationship of the terminal in different node modes may be: the behavior and switching of the terminal in different states; the behavior includes at least one of the following: turning on or off the first transceiver and / or the second transceiver, listening to paging messages or wake-up messages, measurement behavior, etc.

[0286] Optionally, the different states include at least one of the following:

[0287] The first state (case 1): the first transceiver (such as a low power transceiver) is turned on, the first transceiver monitors the wake-up signal (LP-WUS), and the first transceiver measures the service cell; the second transceiver (such as a main transceiver) is in a sleep state, and the second transceiver stops monitoring the paging message and stops measuring the service cell and / or neighboring cell; the service cell can be referred to as the current cell.

[0288] The first state is case 1, when the main transceiver measurement is completely moved to the low power transceiver (Fully offload scenario).

[0289] The second state (case 3): the first transceiver is turned on, and the first transceiver measures the serving cell; the second transceiver is in an activated state, and the second transceiver is in a relaxed state (e.g., relaxed state 1) for measuring the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell. The second state may include a first type of second state (state 2-1) and a second type of second state (e.g., state 2-2). The protocol stipulates that the terminal supports the first type of second state (state 2-1) and the second type of second state (e.g., state 2-2).

[0290] The second state is case 3, when the measurement part of the main transceiver is moved to the low power transceiver (partial offload scenario).

[0291] Because the low-power transceiver has two different sub-states for monitoring the wake-up signal.

[0292] Exemplarily, in state 2-1: the first transceiver monitors the LP-WUS, and the second transceiver does not monitor the paging message.

[0293] Exemplarily, in state 2-2, the first transceiver does not monitor the LP-WUS, and the second transceiver monitors the paging message.

[0294] The third state: the first transceiver does not monitor LP-WUS, and the first transceiver performs or does not perform measurement of the service cell; the second transceiver is in an activated state, and the second transceiver is in a measurement relaxation state (for example, relaxation state 2) for the service cell and / or neighboring cell.

[0295] Fourth state: the second transceiver is in an activated state, and the second transceiver is in a non-measurement relaxation state for the serving cell and / or the neighboring cell.

[0296] Embodiment 2: The terminal determines which state the terminal is in according to the criteria issued by the network device (eg, base station) and / or the capabilities supported by the terminal. Optionally, the capabilities supported by the terminal refer to: the capabilities that the terminal supports in a certain state, etc.

[0297] Optionally, the network device defines different criteria for the terminal to enter each state; for example, at least one of the following criteria is defined:

[0298] The criterion for entering the first state may be a first criterion (Rel19 criteria1); the first criterion may be based on the first transceiver not being at the cell edge or having low mobility, and / or based on the second transceiver not being at the cell edge or having low mobility (for example, Rel19 criteria1: not at celledge / low mobility from MR and additionally not at celledge / low mobility from LR).

[0299] The criterion for entering the second state may be a second criterion (Rel19 criteria3); the second criterion may be based on the first transceiver not being at a cell edge or having low mobility, and / or based on the second transceiver not being at a cell edge or having low mobility (e.g., Rel19 criteria3: not at celledge / low mobility from MR and additionallynot at celledge / low mobility from LR). Optionally, the criterion for entering the second state is: based on the second transceiver not being at a cell edge or having low mobility (e.g., Rel19 criteria3: not at celledge / lowmobility from MR).

[0300] Exemplarily, the criteria for entering the first state are stricter, that is, the first criteria (eg, Rel19 criteria1) are stricter than the second criteria (eg, Rel19 criteria3).

[0301] Exemplarily, the signal quality threshold value of the first criterion is higher than the signal quality threshold value of the second criterion, and / or, the signal quality threshold value of the second criterion is higher than the signal quality threshold value of the third criterion; and / or, the signal quality change amplitude of the first criterion is smaller than the signal quality change amplitude in the second criterion, and / or, the signal quality change amplitude of the second criterion is smaller than the signal quality change amplitude of the third criterion. Because the change amplitude is compared with the fluctuation change amplitude threshold of the signal within a period of time, the network can configure a longer decision time and a smaller amplitude threshold for comparison.

[0302] Exemplarily, the first criterion may take into account both the criterion based on the first transceiver not being at the cell edge or having low mobility and the criterion based on the second transceiver not being at the cell edge or having low mobility. The second criterion may be based on the second transceiver not being at the cell edge or having low mobility; that is, the second criterion may not determine the measurement result of the first transceiver.

[0303] Exemplarily, the criterion for the network device to configure the terminal to enter the first state is that the signal quality of its second transceiver satisfies the threshold of the good signal quality criterion and must be higher than the specified threshold. The specified thresholds include at least: the same-frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchP), the same-frequency measurement signal quality threshold (SIntraSearchQ), the different-frequency or different-system level threshold (SnonIntraSearchP) and the different-frequency or different-system measurement signal quality threshold (SnonIntraSearchQ). That is, the RSRP of its second transceiver is higher than the same-frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchP), and the optional RSRQ is higher than the same-frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchQ) to stop the same-frequency neighboring area measurement. The RSRP of its second transceiver is higher than the different-frequency level threshold (SnonIntraSearchP), and the optional RSRQ is higher than the same-frequency level threshold (SnonIntraSearchQ) to stop the different-frequency neighboring area measurement.

[0304] Exemplarily, the criterion for the network device to configure the terminal to enter the first state is that the threshold of the good signal quality criterion must be higher than the specified threshold. The same frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchP), the same frequency measurement signal quality threshold (SIntraSearchQ), the different frequency or different system level threshold (SnonIntraSearchP) and the different frequency or different system measurement signal quality threshold (SnonIntraSearchQ) in the first criterion are respectively higher than the same frequency level threshold (SIntraSearchP), the same frequency measurement signal quality threshold (SIntraSearchQ), the different frequency or different system level threshold (SnonIntraSearchP) and the different frequency or different system measurement signal quality threshold (SnonIntraSearchQ) in the second criterion.

[0305] Optionally, the terminal determines the state of the terminal based on at least one criterion sent by the network device.

[0306] Exemplarily, if the network device sends a criterion, the terminal determines whether the criterion is satisfied, and if so, determines that the terminal is in a state corresponding to the criterion.

[0307] Exemplarily, if the network device sends at least two criteria, such as a first criterion and a second criterion; if the terminal satisfies the first criterion and the second criterion, the terminal determines (or determines) the state of the terminal. For example, the terminal determines that the state is the first state corresponding to the first criterion or the second state corresponding to the second criterion. For another example, the terminal selects a more relaxed state, such as selecting the first state corresponding to the first criterion.

[0308] Exemplarily, the terminal determines the state of the terminal based on at least one of the following: whether the terminal supports the state, and whether the network device is configured with the state criteria. Optionally, if the network device does not have the state criteria configured, the terminal does not need to determine (or judge) whether it is in the state.

[0309] Exemplarily, if the network device broadcasts the first criterion, the terminal determines whether the first criterion is met based on the terminal supporting the first state; if met, it is determined that the terminal is in the first state; if not met, it is determined that the terminal is not in the first state.

[0310] Exemplarily, if the network device broadcasts the second criterion, the terminal determines whether the second criterion is met based on whether the terminal supports the second state; if met, it is determined that the terminal is in the second state; if not met, it is determined that the terminal is not in the second state.

[0311] Exemplarily, the network device may indicate criteria of different states based on different information elements (IEs), such as indicating a first criterion (such as Rel19 criteria1) and a second criterion (such as Rel19 criteria3) through different IEs.

[0312] Exemplarily, the network device may indicate different status criteria based on the same IE; for example, when the IE is the first bit or the first value, it indicates the first criterion; or when the IE is the second bit or the second value, it indicates the second criterion.

[0313] Embodiment 3: Figure 2B As shown, it involves or if the terminal supports the second state of state 2-1, the switching (or conversion) relationship of the terminal between the states.

[0314] Optionally, the terminal is in the first state (case 1), satisfying one of the following conditions:

[0315] Case 1:

[0316] In the first state, the first criterion is not satisfied (e.g., Not fulfilling Rel19 relaxation criteria 1 for case 1). That is, this situation is usually caused by a change in signal quality, which causes the terminal to not satisfy the first criterion. At this time, the terminal wakes up the second transceiver (i.e., the main transceiver) for measurement; the terminal selects between the second state, the third state, and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0317] Exemplarily, if the terminal is configured and satisfies the second criterion (e.g., Rel19 criteria3), and the terminal supports the second state (case3), it is determined that the terminal switches to the second state (i.e., the second transceiver enters the second state); or, if the terminal is not configured and / or does not meet the second criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the second state, the terminal switches to the third state. The third state can be considered as a traditional RRM measurement relaxation state.

[0318] Case 2: Monitoring based on a wake-up signal (eg, LP-WUS). At this time, the terminal wakes up the second transceiver to perform measurement and monitor paging messages; the terminal selects between the third state and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0319] Exemplarily, the second transceiver of the terminal is turned on and synchronizes paging monitoring. If the terminal is configured and meets the third criterion, and the terminal supports the third state, it is determined that the terminal is in the third state; or, if the terminal is not configured and / or does not meet the third criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the third state, the terminal switches to the fourth state. The fourth state can be considered as a non-RRM measurement relaxation state.

[0320] At this time, in the first state, if awakened by LP-WUS, only the third state and the fourth state can be selected to determine the state of the terminal; and the second state cannot be selected; because at this time, the second state is also the LP-WUS listening state started by the low-power transceiver;

[0321] Optionally, the terminal is in the second state 2-1 (case 3), satisfying one of the following conditions (here the second transceiver is not in sleep mode but in a relaxed measurement mode, and therefore does not need to be awakened).

[0322] Case 3:

[0323] In the second state, the second criterion is not satisfied (e.g., Not fulfilling Rel19 relaxation criteria 3 for case 3). This means that the terminal does not satisfy the second criterion due to a change in signal quality. At this time, the second transceiver performs a measurement; the terminal selects between the third state and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0324] Exemplarily, if the terminal is configured and satisfies a third criterion (e.g., RRM relaxion criteria), and the terminal supports the third state, it is determined that the terminal switches to the third state; or, if the terminal is not configured and / or satisfies the third criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the third state, the terminal switches to the fourth state.

[0325] Case 4:

[0326] Based on the monitoring of the wake-up signal (such as LP-WUS), the second transceiver performs measurement and monitors the paging message; the terminal selects between the third state and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0327] Exemplarily, the second transceiver of the terminal is first synchronized and prepared for paging monitoring. If the terminal is configured and meets the third criterion, and the terminal supports the third state, the terminal is determined to be in the third state; alternatively, if the terminal is not configured and / or does not meet the third criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the third state, the terminal switches to the fourth state.

[0328] It can be seen that compared with waking up to monitor paging messages in the first state, waking up to monitor paging messages in the second state (such as state 2-1) will be faster, because the second transceiver is not in sleep mode at this time, but in the initial relaxed measurement state, so it does not need to be woken up, but directly monitors paging messages after synchronization.

[0329] Embodiment 4: Figure 2C As shown, it involves or if the terminal supports the second state of state 2-2, the switching (or conversion) relationship of the terminal between various states.

[0330] Optionally, the terminal is in the first state (case 1), satisfying one of the following conditions:

[0331] Case 5:

[0332] In the first state, the first criterion is not satisfied (e.g., Not fulfilling Rel19 relaxation criteria 1 for case 1). That is, this situation is usually caused by a change in the signal quality causing the terminal to not satisfy the first criterion. At this time, the terminal wakes up the second transceiver (i.e., the main transceiver) for measurement; the terminal selects between the second state, the third state, and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0333] Exemplarily, if the terminal is configured and satisfies the second criterion (e.g., Rel19 criteria3), and the terminal supports the second state (case3), it is determined that the terminal switches to the second state (i.e., the second transceiver enters the second state); or, if the terminal is not configured and / or does not meet the second criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the second state, the terminal switches to the third state. The third state can be considered as a traditional RRM measurement relaxation state.

[0334] Case 6:

[0335] Based on the monitoring of the wake-up signal (such as LP-WUS), the terminal wakes up the second transceiver to perform measurement and monitor the paging message; the terminal selects between the third state and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0336] Exemplarily, the second transceiver of the terminal is turned on and synchronizes the paging monitoring. If the terminal is configured and satisfies the second criterion, and the terminal supports the second criterion, it is determined that the terminal is in the second state; or, if the terminal is configured and satisfies the third criterion, and the terminal supports the third state, it is determined that the terminal is in the third state; or, if the terminal is not configured and / or does not meet the third criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the third state, the terminal switches to the fourth state. The fourth state can be considered as a non-RRM measurement relaxation state.

[0337] Optionally, the terminal is in the second state (case 3), satisfying one of the following conditions (here the second transceiver is not in sleep mode but in a relaxed measurement state, and therefore does not need to be awakened).

[0338] Situation 7:

[0339] In the second state, the second criterion is not satisfied (e.g., Not fulfilling Rel19 relaxation criteria 3 for case 3). This means that the terminal does not satisfy the second criterion due to a change in signal quality. At this time, the second transceiver performs a measurement; the terminal selects between the third state and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0340] Exemplarily, if the terminal is configured and satisfies a third criterion (e.g., RRM relaxion criteria), and the terminal supports the third state, it is determined that the terminal switches to the third state; or, if the terminal is not configured and / or satisfies the third criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the third state, the terminal switches to the fourth state.

[0341] Situation 8:

[0342] Based on the monitoring of the wake-up signal (such as LP-WUS), the second transceiver performs measurement and monitors the paging message; the terminal selects between the third state and the fourth state to determine the state of the terminal.

[0343] Exemplarily, the second transceiver of the terminal is first synchronized and prepared for paging monitoring. If the terminal is configured and meets the third criterion, and the terminal supports the third state, the terminal is determined to be in the third state; alternatively, if the terminal is not configured and / or does not meet the third criterion, and / or the terminal does not support the third state, the terminal switches to the fourth state.

[0344] It can be seen that compared with waking up to monitor the paging message in the first state, waking up to monitor the paging message in the second state (state 2-2) will be faster, because the second transceiver is not in sleep mode at this time, but in the initial relaxed measurement state, so it does not need to be woken up, but directly monitors the paging message after synchronization.
