[0053] To facilitate the understanding of the information processing method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the following nouns or terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are first explained:

[0054] 1) Energy saving: This includes, but is not limited to, energy saving, energy efficiency, power saving, and power efficiency. In the embodiments of this application, energy saving can refer to energy-saving services, energy-saving operations, or energy-saving transmissions. For example, between a terminal and a base station, an energy-saving transmission method is used to transmit first service data to save the energy consumption of the terminal when executing the first service.

[0055] In some embodiments, the above energy-saving transmission method can be that the network uses an energy-saving scheduling method to schedule the resources used for the data to be transmitted. For example: The first network-side device can schedule more resources for the terminal to transmit data according to the transmission parameters corresponding to the energy-saving mode.

[0056] In some embodiments, the base station provides an energy-saving service for the terminal to enable energy-saving transmission of data between the base station and the terminal. At this time, the terminal performs energy-saving operations related to energy-saving transmission. For example: When the base station provides an energy-saving service for the terminal, it uses an energy-saving scheduling method to schedule the resources used for the data to be transmitted to the terminal, and the terminal then receives or sends data on the specified resources or in the specified manner according to the base station's scheduling.

[0057] In some embodiments, the energy-saving mode in the embodiments of this application can be understood as the working mode used by the terminal when energy-saving transmission is enabled, or energy-saving services are used, or an energy-saving transmission method is adopted. For example: The energy-saving mode can be understood as a mode in which the first network-side device can schedule more resources for the terminal to transmit data according to the transmission parameters corresponding to the energy-saving mode.

[0058] 2) First object: It refers to the object that needs to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, which can specifically include objects such as sessions and services, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0059] 3) Second object: It refers to sessions, services, etc. that have enabled the energy-saving transmission mode;

[0060] It should be noted that the relationship between the first object and the second object can be of the following two types:

[0061] a) For sessions or services that have enabled the energy-saving transmission mode, all of them can be used as the first object for energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, that is, the first object is the same as the second object;

[0062] b) For sessions or services that have enabled the energy-saving transmission mode, some of them can be used as the first object for energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, that is, the first object is a part of the second object.

[0063] 4) The results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement are used to indicate the quantified results of energy saving. For example, how much energy consumption is saved by the first object using the energy-saving transmission service, or the energy consumption level or ratio when the first object uses the energy-saving transmission service, etc.

[0064] 5) The first network-side device: It can be an access network device such as a base station.

[0065] 6) The second network-side device: It can include at least one of core network devices such as AMF, SMF, and PCF.

[0066] Optionally, the second network-side device may further include a newly added control network element. In this case, the newly added control network element is used to transmit management-related information to and from the terminal, and the management-related information includes at least one of the following: mobility management-related information, connection management-related information, session management-related information, task management-related information, policy control-related information, and energy-saving control management-related information.

[0067] With the development of immersive media services (such as Extended Reality (XR), Augmented Reality (AR)), media streams such as images and sounds need to be synchronized between the terminal device and the immersive media server in a timely and reliable manner, and the power of the terminal device needs to be sufficient to support the experience time of the immersive media service. In related technologies, an uplink / downlink energy-saving (high energy efficiency) transmission scheme for low power consumption of the terminal is being studied, and the main requirement is to ensure that the terminal service quality remains unchanged and the terminal standby time is longer. Among them, in the process of terminal energy saving, the loss of network-side resources is not excluded, and the spectral efficiency or coverage may be sacrificed. However, the embodiments of the present application are used to achieve the measurability of the terminal energy-saving effect and obtain the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement that can quantify the energy-saving effect.

[0068] Next, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, through some embodiments and their application scenarios, the terminal energy-saving measurement method, the configuration method of terminal energy-saving measurement, the terminal energy-saving measurement device, the configuration device of terminal energy-saving measurement, and related devices provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 2 , a terminal energy-saving measurement method provided by an embodiment of the present application, the execution subject of which may be a terminal, such as Figure 2 shown, the terminal energy-saving measurement method may include the following steps:

[0070] Step 201, the terminal obtains first information, and the first information is used to indicate the information required for the terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0071] In some embodiments, the ways for the terminal to obtain the first information may include at least one of the following: obtaining pre-configured first information, or receiving the first information indicated by the network side, or the first information agreed or defined in the protocol. Among them, for the terminal to receive the first information indicated by the network side, it may be that the terminal receives the first information sent by the access network device, or receives the first information sent by the core network device.

[0072] As an alternative embodiment, the terminal obtaining the first information includes:

[0073] The terminal receives the first information from the first network side device or the second network side device.

[0074] In one embodiment, the first information may be the first network side device, and the first network side device may be Figure 1 the access network device (such as a base station) shown in

[0075] In another embodiment, the first information may be the second network side device, and the second network side device may be Figure 1 the core network device shown in

[0076] For ease of description, in the embodiments of the present application, usually the example of the terminal receiving the first information indicated by the network side is taken for illustration, which does not constitute a specific limitation here.

[0077] Step 202: The terminal performs energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement according to the first information, and obtains the result of the energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement.

[0078] It should be noted that before the terminal performs energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement, the first network side device provides the terminal with an energy saving service, and the terminal and the first network side device know the energy saving parameters used for the energy saving service. For example: The terminal has completed the negotiation of the energy saving parameters with the core network, so that both the first network side device (such as a base station) and the terminal know the energy saving parameters.

[0079] In some embodiments, after obtaining the first information, the terminal can perform energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement according to the configuration or indication of the first information.

[0080] For example: Based on the first information, know the first object for which energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement needs to be performed, such as based on the first information, know which session / service or services need to perform energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement; or, based on the first information, know how to perform energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement, such as at what time to perform energy saving monitoring or energy saving measurement.

[0081] In some embodiments, the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement can quantify the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service. For example, the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement can indicate the change in the energy efficiency of a first object after using the energy-saving service compared to before using the energy-saving service; or, the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement can indicate the difference in the power consumption of the first object for transmitting a certain amount of data after using the energy-saving service compared to the power consumption for transmitting the same amount of data before using the energy-saving service.

[0082] In some embodiments, based on the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement, it is possible to intuitively feedback to the end user that the network side provides an energy-saving service for the terminal. For example, after a certain terminal subscribes to the energy-saving service, it can output the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement on the terminal so that the end user can know that the network side provides an energy-saving service for the terminal, improving the user experience effect. Optionally, the terminal may provide the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement to the upper layer. For example, the terminal can provide the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement to the upper layer through an AT command to output the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement to the user through the upper layer of the terminal.

[0083] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, measuring the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement by the terminal can enhance the privacy of the terminal's privacy parameters. For example, during the energy-saving monitoring or measurement process, data such as the battery power and the amount of data transmitted of the terminal can be detected to obtain accurate results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement while avoiding the leakage of data such as the battery power and the amount of data transmitted.

[0084] In some embodiments, the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement can also assist the network side in adjusting the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal. For example, the terminal sends the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement to the base station, and the base station adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal accordingly to achieve a better effect of energy consumption and efficiency.

[0085] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the terminal sending the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement to the base station includes the terminal providing the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement to the lower layer.

[0086] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal obtains first information, where the first information is used to indicate the information required for the terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or measurement; the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or measurement according to the first information to obtain the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement. In this way, the terminal can perform energy-saving monitoring or measurement based on the information required for performing energy-saving monitoring or measurement to obtain the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement, and based on the results of the energy-saving monitoring or measurement, the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service provided by the network side can be quantified.

[0087] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0088] 1) A first identifier, which is used to identify an energy-saving monitoring rule or an energy-saving measurement rule, or the first identifier is used to identify a quality of service (QoS) rule.

[0089] In some embodiments, the energy-saving monitoring rule or the energy-saving measurement rule may be an energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement strategy, or energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement data. The energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule, strategy, or data can indicate the parameters required for performing energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, and what kind of processing is to be performed on the parameters to obtain the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, etc.

[0090] For example: The energy-saving monitoring rule or the energy-saving measurement rule may indicate determining the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the data volume transmitted on a first object and the power consumed during the transmission of the data volume.

[0091] In some embodiments, the QoS rule may include an energy-saving monitoring rule or an energy-saving measurement rule for a QoS flow. The specific meaning thereof may refer to the above explanation of the energy-saving monitoring rule or the energy-saving measurement rule, and will not be elaborated herein.

[0092] In some embodiments, the above energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule or QoS rule may be agreed upon in a protocol, or in other ways, the terminal is made to know the rules of each candidate energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule or QoS rule, and based on the first identifier, determine the energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule or QoS rule used in performing energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0093] 2) First indication information, which is used to indicate a first object or a second identifier. The second identifier is an identifier of the first object, and the first object is the object of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0094] In some embodiments, the above first indication information may be used to indicate the object of performing energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, such as indicating which session, service, QoS flow, or terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on.

[0095] For example, the second identifier may include at least one of the following: Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session ID, Data Network Name (DNN), Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI), QoS Flow ID (QFI), QFI set, and terminal identifier.

[0096] It should be noted that the first information may not include the first indication information. In this case, it is default to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on each session, service, QoS flow, or terminal using the energy-saving service on the terminal.

[0097] It is worth noting that in the related art, the energy-saving solution mainly focuses on how to reduce the listening power consumption of the terminal in the idle state or the non-data transmission period of the connected state. For the future 6G network, for different users or even different services, the base station can use different transmission parameters for transmission, such as resource granularity, transmission mode, etc., so that the same amount of data can have different terminal power consumption levels and energy-saving effects. Therefore, a more refined control mechanism for terminal power consumption can be introduced. Under the influence of factors such as user subscription authorization, service requirements, terminal auxiliary status reporting, and terminal preferences, the base station can more reasonably select the transmission method to save the power consumption during the data transmission period of the connected terminal, achieving a better balance and benefit between terminal power consumption and system efficiency. In summary, the energy saving in the embodiments of the present application can include both how to reduce the listening power consumption of the terminal in the idle state or the non-data transmission period of the connected state, and can also be used to reduce the power consumption during the data transmission period of the terminal in the connected state.

[0098] In some embodiments, although the core network has sent the energy-saving parameters of the terminal, the base station can decide by itself when to enable the energy-saving transmission in the connected state for the terminal according to factors such as the current load condition or algorithm strategy, and even at what granularity to enable the energy-saving transmission, such as enabling the energy-saving transmission for a specified service or a specified session. At this time, the base station can use the above first indication information to indicate the first object for performing energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, such as indicating all or part of the services in the service list for enabling energy-saving transmission as the first object;

[0099] 3) The first duration, which is used to indicate the duration of the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement during the period when the energy-saving transmission is not enabled. Optionally, the first duration includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: timer value, duration.

[0100] In some embodiments, the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can be obtained by comparing the energy efficiency parameters during the period of enabling energy-saving transmission with the reference energy efficiency parameters during the period when energy-saving transmission is not enabled. At this time, the above-mentioned first duration is used to indicate how long to measure during the period when energy-saving transmission is not enabled to obtain the reference energy efficiency parameters, and the reference energy efficiency parameters can be used as the basis for judging the energy-saving effect of adopting the energy-saving service.

[0101] For example: Suppose the terminal subscribes to an energy-saving service for a certain service A. At this time, the base station uses an energy-saving transmission mode to transmit data of service A to the terminal. At this time, before the base station uses the energy-saving transmission mode for the data of service A, when the terminal transmits the data of service A, measure the first energy efficiency parameter of service A according to the first duration; then, after the base station uses the energy-saving transmission mode for the data of service A, when the terminal transmits the data of service A, measure the second energy efficiency parameter of service A according to the second duration. In this way, by comparing the difference between the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter, it can be known how much the energy efficiency of service A has been specifically optimized after using the energy-saving service.

[0102] 4) The second duration, which is used to indicate the duration of the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement during the period of enabling energy-saving transmission. Optionally, the second duration includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: timer value, duration.

[0103] The above-mentioned second duration is used to indicate how long to measure during the period of enabling energy-saving transmission to obtain the second energy efficiency parameter, and the second energy efficiency parameter can be used to compare with the first energy efficiency parameter measured based on the first duration to judge the basis for the energy-saving effect of adopting the energy-saving service.

[0104] It should be noted that in order to ensure the fairness of the energy-saving effect monitoring of the terminal, it is assumed that the actions of the terminal are the same before and after the start of energy saving, such as the apps running in the background, the screen display brightness, etc.

[0105] 5) The second indication information, which is used to indicate whether to report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or the energy-saving measurement.

[0106] In some embodiments, after the terminal obtains the results of the energy-saving monitoring or the energy-saving measurement, it can report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or the energy-saving measurement to the network side, such as reporting to the base station or the core network device (the core network device then provides it to the base station), so that the base station can adjust the energy-saving transmission scheme between the base station and the terminal accordingly. For example; in the case where the energy-saving effect is not as expected, the base station adjusts the transmission mode of the data to the terminal so that the power consumption for transmitting the same amount of data is lower.

[0107] In some embodiments, the second indication information is used to instruct the terminal to report the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement immediately after obtaining the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement. At this time, the second indication information may be an End of monitoring energy efficiency report (EMEER).

[0108] 6) The first condition, which is used to indicate the reporting condition of the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0109] In some embodiments, the reporting of the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement by the terminal may be triggered based on certain conditions. For example: reporting periodically, or reporting when the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement indicate that the terminal energy efficiency is higher than a certain threshold or lower than a certain threshold.

[0110] Optionally, the first condition is used to indicate at least one of the following:

[0111] Whether to report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement;

[0112] Whether to report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement periodically;

[0113] Report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement when the measurement period is met. At this time, the measured value in the reported results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement may be all the measured values in the corresponding measurement period, or the mean, maximum, or minimum value of all the measured values, etc.;

[0114] Report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the triggering of a defined event. For example: when the power consumption is greater than or equal to the first threshold, or when the power consumption is less than or equal to the second threshold, that is, trigger the report. At this time, the measured value in the reported results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement may include the measured value that triggers the corresponding threshold (i.e., the first threshold or the second threshold), and additionally, more mean values or other values such as the maximum and minimum values may be included.

[0115] In some embodiments, when the first information includes a first identifier and the first identifier is used to identify an energy-saving monitoring rule or an energy-saving measurement rule, the corresponding relationship between the energy-saving monitoring rule or the energy-saving measurement rule and the first identifier is shown in Table 1 below:

[0116] Table 1

[0117]

[0118] In some embodiments, when the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, one or more energy efficiency monitoring rules in Table 1 above may be used.

[0119] For example, the first information may specifically include the information shown in Table 2 below:

[0120]

[0121]

[0122] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement according to the first information, and obtains the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, including:

[0123] When there is data transmission for the first object and energy-saving transmission is not enabled, the terminal performs first energy-saving monitoring or first energy-saving measurement to obtain a first energy efficiency parameter;

[0124] When there is data transmission for the first object and energy-saving transmission is enabled, the terminal performs second energy-saving monitoring or second energy-saving measurement to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter;

[0125] The terminal determines the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement according to the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter.

[0126] It should be noted that the measurement order of the above first energy efficiency parameter and second energy efficiency parameter may be: measure the first energy efficiency parameter first, and then measure the second energy efficiency parameter; or measure the second energy efficiency parameter first, and then measure the first energy efficiency parameter.

[0127] In some implementation manners, measure the first energy efficiency parameter first, and then measure the second energy efficiency parameter. At this time, before the energy-saving transmission of the first object is enabled and there is data transmission for the first object, perform first energy-saving monitoring or first energy-saving measurement to obtain a first energy efficiency parameter; then, enable the energy-saving transmission of the first object. After that, when there is data transmission for the first object, perform second energy-saving monitoring or second energy-saving measurement to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter.

[0128] In some implementation manners, measure the second energy efficiency parameter first, and then measure the first energy efficiency parameter. At this time, after the energy-saving transmission of the first object is enabled, when there is data transmission for the first object, perform second energy-saving monitoring or second energy-saving measurement to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter; after that, the energy-saving transmission of the first object can be temporarily disabled. Wait until there is data transmission for the first object, perform first energy-saving monitoring or first energy-saving measurement to obtain a first energy efficiency parameter, and after measuring the first energy efficiency parameter, resume the energy-saving transmission of the first object, that is, after the energy-saving transmission of the first object is enabled, the energy-saving transmission of the first object is briefly disabled for a period of time specifically for measuring the first energy efficiency parameter.

[0129] In some implementation manners, the first energy-saving monitoring or first energy-saving measurement may be energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on a first duration.

[0130] In some embodiments, the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement may be energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on a second duration.

[0131] For example: as Figure 3 As shown, when there is uplink or downlink data transmission at the terminal, and before enabling energy-saving transmission, first measure a first energy efficiency parameter based on a first duration; then, after enabling energy-saving transmission, measure a second energy efficiency parameter based on a second duration.

[0132] In some embodiments, the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter may be used to indicate the electric energy consumed for transmitting a certain amount of data. For example: the first energy efficiency parameter is equal to the ratio of the battery power consumed within the first duration to the data volume transmitted within the first duration or the ratio of the data volume transmitted within the first duration to the battery power consumed within the first duration; the second energy efficiency parameter is equal to the ratio of the battery power consumed within the second duration to the data volume transmitted within the second duration or the ratio of the data volume transmitted within the second duration to the battery power consumed within the second duration.

[0133] Of course, there are various calculation methods for the above first energy efficiency parameter and second energy efficiency parameter, and they are not enumerated here.

[0134] In this embodiment, for the terminal to determine the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter, it may be to compare the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter to determine how much energy efficiency improvement the second energy efficiency parameter has compared to the first energy efficiency parameter with the first energy efficiency parameter as a reference. Optionally, the ratio of the difference between the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter to the first energy efficiency parameter can be used to determine the energy efficiency improvement amount. This energy efficiency improvement amount can indicate the energy-saving effect of adopting the energy-saving service compared to not adopting the energy-saving service, or this energy efficiency improvement amount can be used to calculate how much power is saved by adopting the energy-saving service compared to not adopting the energy-saving service. For example: assuming that for each unit of data volume transmitted, the second energy efficiency parameter saves 0.1% of the battery power compared to the first energy efficiency parameter, then when the terminal uses the energy-saving service to transmit n units of data volume, n*(0.1%) of the battery power is saved.

[0135] It should be noted that in order to ensure the accuracy of the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, other energy consumption parameters on the terminal that are irrelevant to energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement are the same within the first duration and the second duration. For example: energy consumption parameters such as apps running in the background of the terminal and the display screen brightness are the same within the first duration and the second duration.

[0136] To achieve the purpose that energy consumption parameters such as apps running in the background of the terminal and the display screen brightness are the same within the first duration and the second duration, the following methods can be adopted:

[0137] 1. Select two time periods with consistent energy consumption parameters such as the apps running in the background of the terminal and the display screen brightness as the first time period and the second time period;

[0138] 2. Measure and record in advance the energy consumption adjustment parameters corresponding to the energy consumption parameters such as the candidate running apps of the terminal and the display screen brightness. When the energy consumption parameters such as the apps running in the background of the terminal and the display screen brightness are inconsistent during the first time period and the second time period, use the energy consumption adjustment parameters corresponding to the actual energy consumption parameters such as the apps running in the background of the terminal and the display screen brightness to adjust the energy consumption values during the first time period and the second time period, so as to eliminate the interference caused by the inconsistent energy consumption parameters such as the candidate running apps of the terminal and the display screen brightness.

[0139] As an optional implementation manner, when there is data transmission for the first object on the terminal and the energy-saving transmission is not enabled, the terminal performs the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement to obtain the first energy efficiency parameter, including:

[0140] The terminal obtains the first energy consumption value during the first time period, where during the first time period, there is data transmission for the first object and the first object does not enable energy-saving transmission;

[0141] During the period when there is data transmission for the first object and the energy-saving transmission is not enabled, the terminal obtains the first monitoring data of the first object during the first time period, and the first monitoring data includes at least one of the following: the number of messages carrying service data transmitted, the transmitted traffic volume, and the amount of data transmitted;

[0142] The terminal determines the first energy efficiency parameter according to the first energy consumption value and the first monitoring data.

[0143] In some implementation manners, when it is detected that there is data transmission for the first object and the first object does not enable energy-saving transmission, a first timer can be started, and the timing duration of the first timer is the first time period, and the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement is performed during the operation of the first timer.

[0144] In some implementation manners, the above first energy consumption value can be equal to the difference between the battery power at the end moment of the first time period and the battery power at the start moment of the first time period.

[0145] In some embodiments, the above battery power can be obtained by a Modem sensing the terminal battery power. For example, the Modem can know whether the current terminal is charging, the remaining percentage of the terminal battery power, etc. And the terminal battery power situation can be fed back to the edge operating system (such as TE) or the server operating system (such as OS) through the Modem (Attention, AT) command. For example, the AT command "Battery charge+CBC" is used for the Mobile Terminal (MT) to return the battery connection status (battery power supply; battery connected but not charging..) and the battery power level (no power or remaining power percentage (1-100%)).

[0146] In some embodiments, the first energy efficiency parameter can reflect the power consumed for transmitting a certain number of messages, traffic, and data volume. For messages, traffic, and data volume of transmitting the same data, if the consumed power is less, it indicates better energy efficiency.

[0147] In this embodiment, the first energy efficiency parameter can be determined based on the number of messages carrying service data, the traffic transmitted, and the data volume transmitted within the first duration, and the power consumed within the first duration, which can simplify the measurement process of the first energy efficiency parameter.

[0148] As an alternative embodiment, when there is data transmission for the first object and energy-saving transmission is enabled, the terminal performs second energy-saving monitoring or second energy-saving measurement to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter, including:

[0149] The terminal obtains a second energy consumption value within a second duration, where within the second duration, there is data transmission for the first object and the first object enables energy-saving transmission;

[0150] When there is data transmission for the first object and energy-saving transmission is enabled, the terminal obtains second monitoring data of the first object within the second duration, and the second monitoring data includes at least one of the following: the number of messages carrying service data, the traffic transmitted, and the data volume transmitted;

[0151] The terminal determines the second energy efficiency parameter according to the second energy consumption value and the second monitoring data.

[0152] In some embodiments, when it is detected that there is data transmission for the first object and the first object enables energy-saving transmission, a second timer can be started, and the timing duration of the second timer is the second duration, and second energy-saving monitoring or second energy-saving measurement is performed during the operation of the second timer.

[0153] In some embodiments, the above second energy consumption value may be equal to the battery power consumed within the second duration, and may be equal to the difference between the battery power at the end time of the second duration and the battery power at the start time of the second duration.

[0154] In this embodiment, the method for obtaining the second energy efficiency parameter is similar to the method for obtaining the first energy efficiency parameter described above, and will not be elaborated here.

[0155] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0156] When the terminal receives third indication information from a first network-side device, it determines to enable energy-saving transmission of a second object. The third indication information is used to indicate enabling an energy-saving transmission mode, and the first network-side device includes an access network device that provides services for the terminal;

[0157] Wherein, the second object includes the first object.

[0158] In some embodiments, the first network-side device may be a RAN device that provides services for the terminal, such as a base station.

[0159] In some embodiments, the above third indication information is used to indicate enabling an energy-saving transmission mode of the second object.

[0160] In some embodiments, the second object including the first object includes:

[0161] 1) The first object is the same as the second object, that is, for each session or service with the energy-saving transmission mode enabled, energy-saving monitoring or measurement operations are performed;

[0162] Optionally, when the terminal determines to enable energy-saving transmission of the second object, it may determine the first information, or request the first information from the network side, or obtain the first information according to protocol agreements, and perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on the second object based on the first information.

[0163] 2) The first object is a part of the second object, that is, energy-saving monitoring or measurement operations are only performed on some sessions or services with the energy-saving transmission mode enabled, and the remaining sessions or services with the energy-saving transmission mode enabled may not monitor or measure their energy-saving effects.

[0164] Optionally, when the terminal determines to enable energy-saving transmission of the second object, it may wait for the network side to send the first information, and perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on the first object indicated by the first information.

[0165] In some embodiments, the third indication information may be carried in a data packet transmitted by the second object. In this way, when the terminal determines that the third indication information is carried in the data packet transmitted by the second object, it can determine that the first network-side device provides an energy-saving service for the second object.

[0166] In other embodiments, the third indication information is carried in a first signaling from the first network-side device. At this time, the first network-side device needs to use the first signaling to indicate to the terminal the second object for which the energy-saving service is provided.

[0167] Optionally, the first signaling may be any signaling sent by the first network-side device to the terminal. It may multiplex existing signaling or be new signaling. For example, the first signaling is an existing RRC message, or a new RRC message, or a broadcast message. The specific type of the first signaling is not limited herein. In some embodiments, after the first network-side device sends the first signaling to the terminal, the terminal can obtain the third indication information from the lower layer.

[0168] It should be noted that, compared with the above two transmission methods of the third indication information, the method of carrying the third indication information in the data packet transmitted by the second object can further simplify the indication content of the third indication information. For example, the third indication information does not need to indicate the second object.

[0169] As an optional method, the method further includes:

[0170] The terminal sends a first message to a second network-side device, and the first message carries the energy-saving requirement information of the terminal. The second network-side device includes a core network device.

[0171] Wherein, the energy-saving requirement information is used to reflect the energy-saving service or energy-saving mode that the terminal wants to use.

[0172] In some embodiments, the energy-saving requirement information includes at least one of the following:

[0173] Fourth indication information, which is used to indicate whether the terminal supports energy saving. For example, it indicates whether the terminal supports energy-saving transmission;

[0174] Fifth indication information, which is used to indicate whether the terminal supports an energy-saving mode or is used to request to use an energy-saving mode. Wherein, the energy-saving mode refers to the working mode of the terminal when adopting an energy-saving transmission method;

[0175] Energy-saving parameters used when enabling energy-saving transmission. For example, at least one of an energy-saving session request and energy-saving parameters of a requested QoS flow granularity, wherein the energy-saving session request is used to indicate whether a session is requested to be established as an energy-saving session.

[0176] In some embodiments, the energy-saving parameter may be a parameter used to enable energy-saving transmission for an energy-saving object (such as a second object), and may include at least one of the following: an energy-saving indication, an energy-saving ratio, an energy-saving level, a transmission rate, a duration of an energy-saving mode, and a deactivation time of the energy-saving mode.

[0177] In this embodiment, the terminal reports energy-saving requirement information to a second network-side device, so that the second network-side device can provide the terminal with first information by referring to the energy-saving service or energy-saving mode desired by the terminal, or the energy-saving parameter used, so that the terminal can more accurately monitor or measure the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service based on the first information.

[0178] In some embodiments, the first message includes at least one of the following:

[0179] A session management message, for example: a PDU session establishment or PDU session modification request message;

[0180] A control plane message, which is used to transfer first management-related information between the terminal and a control node; the first management-related information includes at least one of session management-related information and task management-related information.

[0181] In one embodiment, the terminal can reuse an existing session management message to report energy-saving requirement information.

[0182] In another embodiment, the control node can be used to interact with the NG-RAN for first management-related information.

[0183] Optionally, the first management-related information may specifically include at least one of the following: mobility management-related information, connection management-related information, session management-related information, task management-related information, and policy control-related information.

[0184] Optionally, a control node can be newly added or existing network elements such as an SMF can be enhanced, so that the terminal can report energy-saving requirement information through a control plane message between the terminal and the control node.

[0185] As an optional embodiment, the method further includes:

[0186] The terminal sends the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to a first network-side device or a second network-side device;

[0187] wherein, the first network-side device includes an access network device providing services for the terminal, and the second network-side device includes a core network device.

[0188] In some embodiments, the terminal may directly report the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network-side device, or report the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network-side device through the second network-side device, so that the second network-side device adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme based on the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement. For example, the terminal sends the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the base station, and the base station adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal accordingly to achieve a better effect of energy consumption and efficiency.

[0189] Optionally, the terminal reporting the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement may include: the terminal providing the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the lower layer.

[0190] In this embodiment, the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can also assist the network side in adjusting the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal.

[0191] Refer to Figure 4 , this application embodiment also provides another terminal energy-saving measurement method, and the execution subject of this terminal energy-saving measurement method can be the first network-side device.

[0192] Step 401, the first network-side device provides energy-saving services for the terminal based on an energy-saving transmission mode, and the first network-side device includes an access network device that provides services for the terminal.

[0193] In some embodiments, the first network-side device providing energy-saving services for the terminal based on an energy-saving transmission mode may be that the first network-side device schedules the terminal based on the energy-saving transmission mode. For example, an energy-saving scheduling method is used to schedule the resources used for data transmission that needs to be transmitted.

[0194] Step 402, the first network-side device receives the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement from the terminal.

[0195] It should be noted that the above energy-saving services, energy-saving transmission modes, and results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement in the embodiments of this application respectively have the same meanings and functions as the energy-saving services, energy-saving transmission modes, and results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement in the above terminal-side method embodiments, and are not specifically defined here.

[0197] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0198] The first network-side device adjusts the transmission mode of the terminal according to the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0199] In this embodiment, after receiving the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, the first network-side device may determine whether the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement reaches the expected energy-saving effect, for example: whether it meets the energy-saving requirements of the terminal. If not, the energy-saving transmission mode may be adjusted.

[0200] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0201] The first network-side device sends first information to the terminal, and the first information is used to indicate the information required for the terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0245] For example: Suppose the second network-side device includes an AMF, an SMF, and a PCF. When the SMF receives the energy-saving requirement information of the terminal through the AMF, it can initiate a session policy association establishment or modification process and provide at least one of the following to the PCF: the fourth indication information, the fifth indication information, and the PCF can then generate the first information accordingly.

[0246] In some embodiments, the second information includes at least one of the following:

[0247] A third identifier, which is used to identify the energy-saving monitoring strategy or the energy-saving measurement strategy;

[0248] The first indication information, which is used to indicate the first object or the second identifier, where the second identifier is the identifier of the first object, and the first object is the object of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement;

[0249] The first duration, which is used to indicate the duration of the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement during the period when the energy-saving transmission is not enabled;

[0250] The second duration, which is used to indicate the duration of the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement during the period when the energy-saving transmission is enabled;

[0252] The first condition, which is used to indicate the reporting condition of the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.

[0253] In some embodiments, the second information may be the same as or corresponding to the first information. For example, when the second information includes a third identifier, the second network-side device can thereby learn the energy-saving monitoring strategy or energy-saving measurement strategy indicated by the third identifier, and learn the energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules corresponding to the energy-saving monitoring strategy or energy-saving measurement strategy.

[0254] For example: The second network-side device includes an SMF and a PCF. When a non-dynamic Policy and Charging Control (PCC) rule is used, the PCF can directly send the third identifier to the SMF, and the SMF determines the specific energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules according to the third identifier.

[0257] In some embodiments, after the second network-side device receives the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement from the terminal, it may send the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network-side device.

[0258] In some embodiments, after receiving the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement from the terminal, the second network-side device may determine based on this whether the energy-saving effect indicated by the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement meets the expectations, such as: whether the energy-saving requirements of the terminal are met. If the judgment result is less than expected, the second network-side device may send the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network-side device, so that the first network-side device adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme according to the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
