Description

[0001] The present application relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular to a measurement configuration method, device, and computer-readable storage medium. Background Art

[0002] In wireless communication systems, connected devices perform measurements at the time specified by the network. For example, when a configured measurement gap (MG) occurs, the device stops receiving or transmitting data and immediately performs measurements.

Any embodiment or design described in this application as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be interpreted as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner.

[0070] In the embodiments of this application, terms such as "first" and "second" are used to distinguish between identical or similar items with substantially the same functions and effects. For example, the first indication information and the second indication information are merely used to distinguish between different indication information and do not limit their order. Those skilled in the art will understand that terms such as "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity or execution order, and that terms such as "first" and "second" do not necessarily define differences.

[0071] It should be noted that in the embodiments of this application, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described in this application as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be construed as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner.

[0072] In the embodiments of the present application, "at least one" refers to one or more, and "more" refers to two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: the existence of A alone, the existence of A and B at the same time, and the existence of B alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the previous and next associated objects are in an "or" relationship. "At least one of the following items" or similar expressions refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single items or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b, or c can represent: a, b, c, ab, a--c, bc, or abc, where a, b, c can be single or multiple.

[0073] To facilitate a clear description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, some of the terms and technologies involved in the embodiments of the present application are briefly introduced below:

[0074] 1. Measurement Gaps (MG): Typically, a terminal device has only one receiver and can only receive signals on one frequency at a time, making it unable to perform both data transmission and reception and mobility measurements simultaneously. Therefore, MGs are time intervals set by network equipment and terminal devices for measurement. During this time, the terminal device moves from its current frequency to another frequency for measurement. Since the network equipment has configured the terminal to not transmit or receive signals during this time, the terminal device can focus on measurement without transmitting or receiving data. Essentially, MGs are a mechanism for time-sharing data transmission and reception and mobility measurements.

[0075] 2. SS / PBCH block measurement timing configuration (SMTC): The network device configures a window for the terminal device to perform measurements based on the synchronization signal and PBCH block (SSB). The terminal device only needs to perform SSB measurements within the SMTC measurement window and does not need to perform SSB measurements outside the SMTC measurement window.

[0076] 3. Extended Reality (XR): This business area integrates virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR). XR technology provides an immersive experience, allowing users to interact with digital content and superimpose virtual elements on the real world to create a completely new user experience.

[0077] 4. Radio Resource Management (RRM): Its purpose is to provide high-quality service quality assurance for terminal devices under limited bandwidth conditions. RRM is based on the measurement (reporting) of radio resources by terminal devices. Network equipment flexibly allocates and dynamically adjusts radio (transmission) resources for terminal devices to maximize wireless spectrum utilization, prevent network congestion, and maintain the minimum signaling load. RRM measurements primarily measure the reference signal received power (RSRP) and reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ) values of the serving cell and neighboring cells.

[0078] 5. Terminal equipment:

[0079] The terminal device of the embodiment of the present application may include a handheld device, a vehicle-mounted device, etc. with wireless communication function. For example, some terminal devices include: mobile phones, tablet computers, PDAs, laptops, mobile internet devices (MIDs), wearable devices, VR devices, AR devices, wireless terminals in industrial control, wireless terminals in self-driving, wireless terminals in remote medical surgery, wireless terminals in smart grids, wireless terminals in transportation safety, wireless terminals in smart cities, wireless terminals in smart homes, cellular phones, cordless phones, session initiation protocol (SIP) phones, wireless local loop (WLL) stations, personal digital assistants (PDAs), handheld devices with wireless communication capabilities, computing devices or other processing devices connected to wireless modems, vehicle-mounted devices, wearable devices, terminal devices in 5G networks, or terminal devices in future evolved public land mobile networks (PLMNs), etc. The embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0080] As an example and not a limitation, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may also be a wearable device. Wearable devices may also be called wearable smart devices, which are a general term for wearable devices that are intelligently designed and developed using wearable technology for daily wear, such as glasses, gloves, watches, clothing, and shoes. A wearable device is a portable device that is worn directly on the body or integrated into the user's clothes or accessories. Wearable devices are not only hardware devices, but also achieve powerful functions through software support, data interaction, and cloud interaction. Broadly speaking, wearable smart devices include those that are fully functional, large in size, and can achieve complete or partial functions without relying on smartphones, such as smart watches or smart glasses, as well as those that only focus on a certain type of application function and need to be used in conjunction with other devices such as smartphones, such as various smart bracelets and smart jewelry for vital sign monitoring.

[0081] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can also be a terminal device in the Internet of Things (IoT) system. IoT is an important part of the future development of information technology. Its main technical feature is to connect objects to the network through communication technology, thereby realizing an intelligent network of human-machine interconnection and object-to-object interconnection.

[0082] The terminal device in the embodiments of the present application may also be referred to as: user equipment (UE), mobile station (MS), mobile terminal (MT), access terminal, user unit, user station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, remote terminal, mobile device, user terminal, terminal, wireless communication equipment, user agent or user device, etc.

[0083] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device or each network device includes a hardware layer, an operating system layer running on the hardware layer, and an application layer running on the operating system layer. The hardware layer includes hardware such as a central processing unit (CPU), a memory management unit (MMU), and memory (also known as main memory).

[0084] In an embodiment of the present application, the device for implementing the function of the terminal may be the terminal; or it may be a device that can support the terminal to implement the function, such as a chip system, which may be installed in the terminal.

[0085] 6. Network equipment

[0086] The network device in the embodiment of the present application may refer to a public mobile communication network device, which is an interface device for terminal devices to access the Internet. It is also a form of radio station, which refers to a radio transceiver station that transmits information between terminal devices within a certain radio coverage area, including a base station (BS), which can also be called a base station device, which is a device deployed in a radio access network (RAN) to provide wireless communication functions. For example, the device providing base station functions in the 2G network includes a base transceiver station (BTS), the device providing base station functions in the 3G network includes a node B (NodeB), the device providing base station functions in the 4G network includes an evolved node B (eNB), and in wireless local area networks (WLAN), the device providing base station functions is an access point (AP), the device providing base station functions in 5G NR is a gNB, and the further evolved node B (ng-eNB), wherein the gNB and the terminal device communicate using NR technology, and the ng-eNB and the terminal device communicate using evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) technology, and both gNB and ng-eNB can be connected to the 5G core network. The network device 103 in the embodiment of the present application also includes a device that provides base station functions in a future new communication system, etc.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present application, the device for implementing the function of the network device may be a network device, or a device that can support the network device to implement the function, such as a chip system, which may be installed in the network device.

[0088] In order to better understand the method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the following first describes the communication system architecture that may be involved in the embodiments of the present application.

[0089] For example, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a communication system architecture provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the communication system 100 includes a terminal device 101 and a network device 102, and the terminal device 101 and the network device 102 communicate with each other wirelessly through a network.

[0090] In the embodiments of the present application, the wireless communication between the terminal device 101 and the network device 102 may also be referred to as "communication." The term "communication" may also be described as "data transmission," "information transmission," or "transmission." Those skilled in the art may apply the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application to wireless communication between network devices and terminal devices, such as wireless communication between access network devices and terminal devices, or wireless communication between core network devices and terminal devices.

[0091] Before performing inter-frequency or inter-system switching, the terminal device 101 must first perform inter-frequency or inter-system measurements. When the signal of the current service cell where the terminal device 101 is located is poor and the inter-frequency or inter-system measurement is triggered, the network device 102 will send a measurement gap (hereinafter referred to as MG) configuration instruction to the terminal device 101. The MG configuration instruction includes the MG's measurement period, the MG's measurement time window, and the measurement start time. For example, the MG's measurement window is 6ms, and the measurement period is 40ms or 80ms. After receiving the MG configuration instruction, the terminal device 101 starts the MG according to the MG configuration instruction. Since the terminal device 101 usually has only one receiver and can only receive signals at one frequency at the same time, the terminal device 101 cannot process all uplink and downlink channels within the MG's measurement window, that is, the terminal device 101 does not receive or transmit data. For example, when the MG period is 40ms, the terminal device 101 cannot receive or transmit data for 6 consecutive ms within every 40ms.

[0092] In wireless communication systems, connected terminal devices perform measurements according to the measurement configuration specified by the network. For example, when a MG configured in the measurement configuration arrives, the terminal device stops receiving or transmitting data and immediately performs measurements. Since terminal devices cannot transmit data during the measurement time, after the configured measurement time, the terminal device stops receiving or transmitting data during the measurement time, and the network device does not schedule the measurement.

[0093] For some data services, the time when the terminal device receives or transmits data easily overlaps with the measurement time. This means that at certain moments, the terminal device may be required to perform measurements while receiving or transmitting data.

[0094] For example, since the MG period is an integer period, for some non-integer period services, the network device will inevitably overlap the MG and such services when configuring the MG, which means that at certain moments, the terminal device may be required to perform measurements while receiving or transmitting data.

[0095] According to the current processing method, when the data transmission time and measurement time of the above services overlap, the terminal device will wait until the measurement time ends before receiving or transmitting data, resulting in low efficiency in receiving or transmitting data by the terminal device.

[0096] For example, taking XR business as an example, XR business needs to process a large amount of real-time data, including video, audio, sensor data, etc., and these data usually need to be transmitted and processed with low latency to meet the user's demand for immersive experience. For this reason, the data in XR business is more sensitive to the transmission delay requirements. Therefore, in some implementations, the data in XR business usually adopts a burst transmission mechanism.

[0097] The burst transmission mechanism is an efficient data transmission method that can transmit large amounts of data in a short period of time. In XR services, the burst transmission mechanism can quickly transmit video, audio, and sensor data from network devices to terminal devices, and can also transmit user interaction data from terminal devices to network devices.

[0098] Since XR services need to process large amounts of real-time data, and this data usually needs to be transmitted and processed with low latency, in order to meet this demand, the cycle of XR services is usually a non-integer cycle, which can better adapt to different application scenarios and user needs.

[0099] Specifically, the cycle of XR services depends on the speed of data transmission and processing. Due to the large amount of data, the cycle of XR services is usually longer to achieve better processing results. At the same time, to meet the requirement of low latency, the cycle of XR services also needs to be as short as possible. Therefore, the cycle of XR services is usually a non-integer period to balance data transmission and processing speed with the requirement of low latency.

[0100] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 2 A data transmission diagram provided in an embodiment of the present application Figure 1 .

[0101] like Figure 2 As shown, XR services utilize a burst transmission mechanism. The period of an XR service transmission is X milliseconds (ms), meaning a burst pulse is generated every X milliseconds, including burst pulse 1, burst pulse 2, ..., burst pulse 4. Each burst pulse contains data to be received or transmitted.

[0102] In some implementations, the MG period is Y milliseconds (ms). Since Y is usually an integer, when X is a non-integer (such as 16.67), the data transmission time of the above-mentioned XR service will inevitably overlap with the measurement time. For example, Figure 2 As shown, when burst pulse 1 arrives, the time for the above-mentioned XR service to transmit data will overlap with the latter period of one of the measurement times. When burst pulse 2 or burst pulse 3 arrives, the time for the above-mentioned XR service to transmit data will overlap with one of the measurement times. When burst pulse 4 arrives, the time for the above-mentioned XR service to transmit data will not overlap with the measurement time.

[0103] According to the current protocol, when the data transmission time overlaps with the measurement time, the terminal device will stop receiving or transmitting data, give priority to measurement, and then continue receiving or transmitting data after waiting for the measurement time to end. Figure 2 As shown, when burst pulse 1 arrives, the terminal device will still perform measurement, and start receiving or transmitting data after the measurement time ends; when burst pulse 2 or burst pulse 3 arrives, the terminal device will stop receiving or transmitting data, give priority to measurement, and continue receiving or transmitting data after waiting for the measurement time to end; when burst pulse 4 arrives, the terminal device can directly receive or transmit data.

[0104] It is understandable that Figure 2 The data transmission method shown will increase the latency of XR service data transmission, which will lead to reduced data transmission efficiency. Therefore, the Rel-19 XR topic agreed to enhance MG and scheduling constraints and reached the following meeting conclusions:

[0105] Measurement gaps / scheduling restrictions: Enhancements are specified for scheduling restrictions on inter-frequency RRM measurements in frequency range 1 (FR1) and FR2 with measurement gaps, and intra-frequency measurements in FR2 without measurement gaps, to reduce the impact on capacity and the impact on individual terminal devices.

[0106] In summary, how to reasonably apply measurement time, reduce the delay in receiving or transmitting data by terminal devices, and improve data transmission efficiency is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. To this end, the embodiments of the present application propose a measurement configuration method that determines measurement configuration information based on service cycle information and / or the number of overlaps between measurement time and transmission time. This can effectively reduce the probability of overlap between the time when a terminal device receives or transmits data and the measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of the terminal device in receiving or transmitting data.

[0107] Optionally, the measurement time may include a measurement time window of a measurement gap or an SMTC measurement window.

[0114] Measurement period: refers to the frequency of measurement, which can be the measurement time period. For example, if the measurement period is configured as 20 milliseconds, the terminal device can perform a measurement every 20 milliseconds, and there is a measurement time every 20 milliseconds.

[0115] Measurement duration: Also known as measurement duration, this refers to the duration of the measurement. For example, a measurement duration of 5 milliseconds indicates that each measurement performed by the terminal device lasts for 5 milliseconds.

[0117] Measurement parameters: These are the parameters and instructions required to perform the measurement. For example, these may include parameters such as signal strength (such as reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ), and received signal strength indication (RSSI)), transmission delay, bit error rate, and other parameters to be measured, as well as specific instructions on how to perform the measurement.

[0118] Optionally, the above measurement includes RRM measurement.

[0119] In some implementations, the service cycle information may be period information of a periodic service in the communication system.

[0120] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the transmission process of a periodic service provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0123] Optionally, the above data may include XR service data. This embodiment does not limit the type of the above data.

[0124] For example, the following scenarios may occur: Figure 4 Periodic services include downlink transmission of VR, AR, MR and other media services, uplink video acquisition, factory equipment information reporting in industrial wireless sensor networks (IWSNs), periodic freight reporting in IoT, and periodic control information delivery in time-sensitive network (TSN) services.

[0125] In some embodiments, the network device can configure one or more measurement configuration information, as well as the association relationship between the one or more measurement configuration information and the service cycle information, and indicate to the terminal device the association relationship between the one or more measurement configuration information and the service cycle information by sending the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information to the terminal device.

[0126] In some implementations, the same measurement configuration information may be associated with only one service cycle information or may be associated with multiple different service cycle information. For example, measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with service cycle information 1; or measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with service cycle information 1, service cycle information 2, and service cycle information 3 at the same time.

[0127] In some implementations, when multiple measurement configuration information is configured, different measurement configuration information may be associated with different service cycle information. For example, when measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 are configured, measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with service cycle information 1, measurement configuration information 2 may be associated with service cycle information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be associated with service cycle information 3.

[0128] In some implementations, when multiple measurement configuration information is configured, different measurement configuration information can be associated with the same service cycle information. For example, when measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 are configured, measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 can be simultaneously associated with service cycle information 1.

[0129] Optionally, the above-mentioned measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be different measurement configurations, that is, the measurement cycles and / or measurement time lengths corresponding to the above-mentioned measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be different.

[0130] In some implementations, the service cycle information may include at least one of the following:

[0131] Service cycle value, service cycle threshold, and non-integer service cycle information.

[0132] Exemplarily, in the case where the above-mentioned business cycle information includes a business cycle value, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 and measurement configuration information 2 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first business cycle value, and measurement configuration information 2 is associated with the second business cycle value, indicating that measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a business cycle whose cycle value is equal to the first business cycle value, and measurement configuration information 2 can be applied to a business cycle whose cycle value is equal to the second business cycle value.

[0133] In the case where the above-mentioned service cycle information includes a service cycle threshold, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 and measurement configuration information 2 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with a first service cycle threshold T1, and measurement configuration information 2 is associated with a second service cycle threshold T2, T1 < T2, indicating that measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to service cycles with a cycle value less than or equal to T1, and measurement configuration information 2 can be applied to service cycles with a cycle value less than or equal to T2. The measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 is greater than the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 1.

[0134] For example, taking the first service cycle threshold T1 associated with measurement configuration information 1 as 20ms and the second service cycle threshold T2 associated with measurement configuration information 2 as 40ms as an example, when there is data radio bearer (DRB) 1 in the terminal device and the service cycle corresponding to DRB1 is 16.67ms, the terminal device can use measurement configuration information 1 or measurement configuration information 2; when there is DRB2 in the terminal device and the service cycle corresponding to DRB2 is 33.34ms, the terminal device can only use measurement configuration information 2 and cannot use measurement configuration information 1.

[0135] In the case where the above-mentioned service cycle information includes non-integer service cycle information, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with non-integer service cycle information; indicating that the measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a service cycle with a non-integer period value.

[0136] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiments of the present application associates measurement configuration information with service cycle information, so that network devices can reasonably arrange measurement tasks based on the service cycle information, reduce the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving data transmission efficiency and better balancing measurement requirements and data transmission requirements.

[0137] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may include the measurement configuration information and service cycle information.

[0138] Optionally, the first measurement configuration information may include one or more measurement configuration information and one service cycle information. For example, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1 and service cycle information 1. Alternatively, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and service cycle information 1.

[0139] Optionally, the following is described by taking the example that the first measurement configuration information includes measurement configuration information 1 and service cycle information 1:

[0140] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle value, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle having a cycle value equal to the service cycle value.

[0141] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle threshold, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle having a cycle value less than or equal to the service cycle threshold.

[0142] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes non-integer service cycle information, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle with a non-integer cycle value.

[0143] Optionally, the following is an example in which the first measurement configuration information includes measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and service cycle information 1:

[0144] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle value, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 may be applied to a service cycle having a cycle value equal to the service cycle value.

[0145] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle threshold, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 and measurement configuration information 2 may be applied to service cycles having a cycle value less than or equal to the service cycle threshold.

[0146] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes non-integer service cycle information, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 may be applied to service cycles with non-integer cycle values.

[0147] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiment of the present application can accurately indicate the correspondence between the measurement configuration information of the terminal device and the service cycle information by sending the first measurement configuration information to the terminal device, thereby enabling the terminal device to use more reasonable measurement configuration information, reduce the probability of overlap between the data transmission time and the measurement time, and thus improve the efficiency of data transmission.

[0148] In some embodiments of the present application, the first measurement configuration information may be related to information about the number of overlaps between the measurement time and the transmission time.

[0149] Optionally, the measurement time may include a measurement time window of a measurement gap or an SMTC measurement time window.

[0150] In some implementations, the transmission time may be a transmission time of a periodic service in the communication system.

[0151] like Figure 4 As shown, the transmission time from t0 to t1 is the transmission time of data 1, the transmission time from t0+T to t2 is the transmission time of data 2, and the transmission time from t0+2T to t3 is the transmission time of data 3, ...

[0152] In some embodiments, the number of overlaps between the measurement time and the transmission time may be the number of overlaps between the transmission time of the periodic service and the measurement time within the first duration. For example, taking the example of the periodic service being able to transmit data 1, data 2, data 3, data 4, and data 5 within the first duration, it may be determined whether the measurement times corresponding to data 1, data 2, data 3, data 4, and data 5 overlap with the measurement time, respectively. Based on the determination results, the number of overlaps between the transmission time of the periodic service and the measurement time within the first duration is then determined.

[0153] In some implementations, the first measurement configuration information is used to indicate an association relationship between one or more pieces of measurement configuration information and overlap count information.

[0154] In some embodiments, the network device can configure one or more measurement configuration information, as well as the association relationship between the one or more measurement configuration information and the number of overlapping times information, and indicate to the terminal device the association relationship between the one or more measurement configuration information and the number of overlapping times information by sending the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information to the terminal device.

[0155] In some implementations, the same measurement configuration information may be associated with only one piece of overlap number information. For example, measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with overlap number information 1.

[0156] In some implementations, when multiple measurement configuration information is configured, different measurement configuration information may be associated with different overlap count information. For example, when measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 are configured, measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with overlap count information 1, measurement configuration information 2 may be associated with overlap count information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be associated with overlap count information 3.

[0157] In some implementations, when multiple measurement configuration information is configured, different measurement configuration information can be associated with the same overlap count information. For example, when measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 are configured, measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 can be simultaneously associated with overlap count information 1.

[0158] In some implementations, the overlap count information includes an overlap count threshold.

[0159] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned overlap number information includes an overlap number threshold, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first overlap number threshold, indicating that the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used for a service period in which the number of overlaps between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap number threshold.

[0160] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiment of the present application, by associating measurement configuration information with the above-mentioned overlap number information, enables the network device to reasonably arrange measurement tasks according to the above-mentioned overlap number information, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission and better balancing measurement requirements and data transmission requirements.

[0161] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information includes measurement configuration information and the overlapping times information.

[0162] Optionally, the first measurement configuration information may include one or more measurement configuration information and one overlapping times information. For example, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1 and overlapping times information 1.

[0163] In some embodiments, when the overlap number information 1 includes an overlap number threshold, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service period in which the overlap number between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the overlap number threshold.

[0164] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiment of the present application can accurately indicate the correspondence between the measurement configuration information of the terminal device and the above-mentioned overlapping number information by sending the first measurement configuration information to the terminal device, thereby enabling the terminal device to use more reasonable measurement configuration information, reduce the probability of overlap between the data transmission time and the measurement time, and thus improve the efficiency of data transmission.

[0165] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may be related to both the service cycle information and the overlap times information.

[0166] In some implementations, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate an association relationship between one or more pieces of measurement configuration information and the service cycle information and the overlap times information.

[0167] Optionally, the measurement time may include a measurement time window of a measurement gap or an SMTC measurement time window.

[0168] In some embodiments, the network device can configure one or more measurement configuration information, as well as the association relationship between the one or more measurement configuration information and the service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlapping number information, and indicate to the terminal device the association relationship between the one or more measurement configuration information and the service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlapping number information by sending the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information to the terminal device.

[0169] Exemplarily, the measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with the service cycle information 1 and the overlap times information 1 at the same time.

[0170] Optionally, the service cycle information includes at least one of the following:

[0171] Service cycle value, service cycle threshold, and non-integer service cycle information.

[0172] Optionally, the above-mentioned overlap times information includes an overlap times threshold.

[0173] Exemplarily, when the above-mentioned business cycle information includes a business cycle value and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first business cycle value and the first overlap times threshold, indicating that the measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a business cycle whose cycle value is the above-mentioned first business cycle value and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0174] In the case where the above-mentioned business cycle information includes a business cycle threshold and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first business cycle threshold and the first overlap times threshold, indicating that the measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a business cycle whose cycle value is less than or equal to the above-mentioned first business cycle value and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0175] In the case where the above-mentioned service cycle information includes non-integer service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, taking the network device pre-configured with measurement configuration information 1 as an example, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 associates the non-integer service cycle information with the first overlap times threshold, indicating that the measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a service cycle whose cycle value is non-integer and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0176] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiment of the present application associates measurement configuration information with service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlap number information, so that the network device can reasonably arrange measurement tasks based on the service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlap number information, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission and better balancing measurement requirements and data transmission requirements.

[0177] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may include the measurement configuration information, the service cycle information, and the overlap times information. For example, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1, service cycle information 1, and overlap times information 1.

[0178] When the above-mentioned service cycle information 1 includes a first service cycle value and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, the first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is equal to the above-mentioned service cycle value and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0179] When the above-mentioned service cycle information 1 includes a first service cycle threshold and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, the first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is less than or equal to the above-mentioned service cycle threshold and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0180] When the above-mentioned service cycle information 1 includes non-integer service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, the first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is non-integer and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0181] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiment of the present application can accurately indicate the correspondence between the measurement configuration information of the terminal device and the service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlapping number information by sending the first measurement configuration information to the terminal device. This can more reasonably indicate the measurement configuration information to the terminal device, reduce the probability of overlap between the data transmission time and the measurement time, and thus improve the efficiency of data transmission.

[0182] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the steps of a measurement configuration method provided in an embodiment of the present application Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the measurement configuration method includes:

[0183] S501: A network device sends first measurement configuration information to a terminal device.

[0184] S502: The network device receives auxiliary information reported by the terminal device.

[0185] S503: The network device sends first indication information to the terminal device, where the first indication information is used to indicate the use or activation of one or more measurement configuration information.

[0186] In the embodiment of the present application, the content of the above step S501 is consistent with the content of step S301 described in the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0187] In some implementations, the terminal device may periodically or on demand send auxiliary information to the network device. The network device may determine the current state and service requirements of the terminal device, including the service cycle of the data service currently running on the terminal device, based on the auxiliary information sent by the terminal device.

[0188] Optionally, the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device may include the following:

[0189] Device identification information: a unique identifier used to identify the terminal device, such as MAC address, device serial number, etc.

[0190] Service status information: information indicating the current service status of the terminal device, such as idle state, busy state, data transmission state, standby state, etc.

[0191] Measurement results: The results obtained by the terminal device in a specific measurement task, such as signal strength, transmission delay, bit error rate, etc.

[0192] Service cycle information: indicates the relevant information of the current service cycle of the terminal device, such as service type, service duration, service cycle, etc.

[0193] After the terminal device reports the auxiliary information, the network device can analyze this information to determine the terminal device's current service cycle. For example, based on the service status information and service cycle information reported by the terminal device, the network device can determine whether the terminal device has data services to transmit and, if so, the service cycle for such services.

[0194] In some embodiments, when the network device determines the service cycle of the current data service of the terminal device based on the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device, it can determine one or more measurement configuration information suitable for the terminal device based on the service cycle, and indicate it to the terminal device through the above-mentioned first indication information.

[0195] For example, when the network device determines, based on the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device, that the service cycle of the current data service of the terminal device is the first service cycle, if the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first service cycle, a first indication information is sent to the terminal device, and the first indication information is used to indicate the use or activation of the measurement configuration information 1.

[0196] When the network device determines, based on the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device, that the service cycle of the current data service of the terminal device is the first service cycle, if the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first service cycle threshold, and the first service cycle is less than or equal to the first service cycle threshold, a first indication information is sent to the terminal device, and the first indication information is used to indicate the use or activation of the measurement configuration information 1.

[0197] In some implementations, if the first service cycle is greater than the first service cycle threshold, measurement configuration information having a measurement cycle greater than the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be selected, or measurement configuration information having a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be selected. When there is no measurement configuration information having a measurement cycle greater than the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, or measurement configuration information having a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, measurement relaxation may be performed on measurement configuration information 1. For example, the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be increased, and / or the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be reduced.

[0198] When the network device determines, based on the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device, that the service cycle of the current data service of the terminal device is the first service cycle, if the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with non-integer service cycle information and the first service cycle is a non-integer, a first indication information is sent to the terminal device, and the first indication information is used to indicate the use or activation of the measurement configuration information 1.

[0199] When the network device determines, based on the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device, that the service cycle of the current data service of the terminal device is the first service cycle, if the measurement configuration information 1 is associated with an overlap number threshold, and the number of overlaps between the transmission time and the measurement time of the above-mentioned data service is less than or equal to the above-mentioned overlap number threshold, a first indication information is sent to the terminal device, and the first indication information is used to indicate the use or activation of the measurement configuration information 1.

[0200] In some implementations, if the number of overlaps between the transmission time and the measurement time of the data service is greater than the overlap number threshold, measurement configuration information having a measurement period greater than the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be selected, or measurement configuration information having a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be selected. When there is no measurement configuration information having a measurement period greater than the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, or measurement configuration information having a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, measurement relaxation may be performed on measurement configuration information 1. For example, the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be increased, and / or the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 may be decreased.

[0201] The measurement configuration method provided in the embodiment of the present application can indicate reasonable measurement configuration information to the terminal device by sending the above-mentioned first indication information to the terminal device, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission.

[0202] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a flowchart of the steps of a method for determining measurement configuration information provided in an embodiment of the present application. In some embodiments of the present application, the method for determining measurement configuration information includes:

[0203] S601: Receive first measurement configuration information from a network device.

[0204] S602: Determine usable measurement configuration information based on the first measurement configuration information.

[0205] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may be related to service cycle information.

[0206] In some implementations, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate an association relationship between one or more pieces of measurement configuration information and service cycle information.

[0207] In some implementations, when there is a data service, the terminal device may first determine the service cycle of the data service, and then determine the usable measurement configuration information based on the service cycle of the data service and the above-mentioned association relationship.

[0208] In some implementations, the service cycle information may include at least one of the following:

[0209] Service cycle value, service cycle threshold, and non-integer service cycle information.

[0210] Exemplarily, in some embodiments, when the above-mentioned service cycle information includes a service cycle value, and the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first service cycle value, and measurement configuration information 2 is associated with the second service cycle value, when the terminal device has a data service and the service cycle of the data service is equal to the above-mentioned first service cycle value, measurement configuration information 1 is determined to be usable measurement configuration information; when the terminal device has a data service and the service cycle of the data service is equal to the above-mentioned second service cycle value, the terminal device can determine that measurement configuration information 2 is usable measurement configuration information.

[0211] Optionally, the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 may be different measurement configurations, that is, the measurement cycles and / or measurement time lengths corresponding to the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 may be different.

[0212] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned service cycle information includes a service cycle threshold, and the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first service cycle threshold T1, and measurement configuration information 2 is associated with the second service cycle threshold T2, and T1 < T2, when the terminal device has data services and the service cycles of all data services are less than or equal to T1, the terminal device can determine that measurement configuration information 1 and measurement configuration information 2 are usable measurement configuration information; when the terminal device has data services and the service cycles of all data services are less than or equal to T2, the terminal device can determine that measurement configuration information 2 is usable measurement configuration information. Among them, the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 is greater than the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 1.

[0213] In some implementations, when the service cycle information includes multiple service cycle thresholds and the service cycle of the data service is greater than the maximum service cycle threshold, the measurement configuration information associated with the maximum service cycle threshold is determined as the usable measurement configuration information.

[0214] For example, when the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first service cycle threshold T1, and measurement configuration information 2 is associated with the second service cycle threshold T2, and T1<T2, when the terminal device has a data service and the service cycle of the data service is greater than T2, the terminal device can determine that measurement configuration information 2 is usable measurement configuration information.

[0215] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with a first service cycle threshold T1, and measurement configuration information 2 is associated with a second service cycle threshold T2, and T1 < T2, when the terminal device has a data service and the service cycle of the data service is greater than T2, the terminal device may select measurement configuration information with a measurement cycle greater than the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 2, or select measurement configuration information with a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 2. When there is no measurement configuration information with a measurement cycle greater than the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 2, or measurement configuration information with a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 2, measurement relaxation may be performed on measurement configuration information 2. For example, the measurement cycle corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 may be increased, and / or the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 may be reduced.

[0216] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned service cycle information includes non-integer service cycle information, and the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with non-integer service cycle information, when the terminal device has a data service and the service cycle of the data service is a non-integer service cycle, the terminal device can determine that measurement configuration information 1 is usable measurement configuration information.

[0217] In some implementations, when the non-integer service cycle information is associated with multiple measurement configuration information, the measurement configuration information associated with the non-integer service cycle information and having the smallest measurement cycle is determined as the usable measurement configuration information.

[0218] Exemplarily, when the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with measurement configuration information 2 with non-integer service cycle information, and the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 is greater than the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, when the terminal device has a data service and the service cycle of the data service is a non-integer, the terminal device can determine that measurement configuration information 1 is usable measurement configuration information.

[0219] The method for determining measurement configuration information provided in the embodiment of the present application is that the terminal device can determine more reasonable measurement configuration information by utilizing the association between the measurement configuration information indicated by the network device and the service cycle information, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between the data transmission time and the measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission and better balancing measurement requirements and data transmission requirements.

[0220] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may include the measurement configuration information and service cycle information.

[0221] Optionally, the first measurement configuration information may include one or more measurement configuration information and one service cycle information. For example, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1 and service cycle information 1. Alternatively, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and service cycle information 1.

[0222] Optionally, the following is described by taking the example that the first measurement configuration information includes measurement configuration information 1 and service cycle information 1:

[0223] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle value, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle having a cycle value equal to the service cycle value.

[0224] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle threshold, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is less than or equal to the service cycle threshold.

[0225] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes non-integer service cycle information, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle with a non-integer cycle value.

[0226] Optionally, the following is an example in which the first measurement configuration information includes measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and service cycle information 1:

[0227] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle value, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 can be applied to a service cycle having a cycle value equal to the service cycle value.

[0228] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes a service cycle threshold, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 may be applied to a service cycle having a cycle value less than or equal to the service cycle threshold.

[0229] In some implementations, when the service cycle information 1 includes non-integer service cycle information, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 and the measurement configuration information 2 can be applied to a service cycle with a non-integer cycle value.

[0230] The method for determining measurement configuration information provided in the embodiment of the present application is that the terminal device can use the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information and use more reasonable measurement configuration information to reduce the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission.

[0231] In some embodiments of the present application, the first measurement configuration information may be related to information about the number of overlaps between the measurement time and the transmission time.

[0232] Optionally, the measurement time may include a measurement time window of a measurement gap or an SMTC measurement time window.

[0233] In some implementations, the transmission time may be a transmission time of a periodic service in the communication system.

[0234] In some implementations, the first measurement configuration information is used to indicate an association relationship between one or more pieces of measurement configuration information and overlap count information.

[0235] In some implementations, the same measurement configuration information may be associated with only one piece of overlap number information. For example, measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with overlap number information 1.

[0236] In some implementations, when multiple measurement configuration information is configured, different measurement configuration information may be associated with different overlap count information. For example, measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with overlap count information 1, measurement configuration information 2 may be associated with overlap count information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be associated with overlap count information 3.

[0237] Optionally, the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 is greater than the measurement period of measurement configuration information 2, and the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 is greater than the measurement period of measurement configuration information 3. In this case, the number of overlaps corresponding to overlap number information 1 is less than the number of overlaps corresponding to overlap number information 2, and the number of overlaps corresponding to overlap number information 2 is less than the number of overlaps corresponding to overlap number information 3. The above-mentioned measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be different measurement configurations, that is, the measurement periods and / or measurement time lengths corresponding to the above-mentioned measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be different. In some implementations, when multiple measurement configuration information are configured, different measurement configuration information may be associated with the same overlap number information. Exemplarily, measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2, and measurement configuration information 3 may be associated with overlap number information 1 at the same time.

[0238] In some implementations, the overlap count information includes an overlap count threshold.

[0239] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned overlap number information includes an overlap number threshold, and the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information is used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with the first overlap number threshold, the terminal device can determine that the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used for a service period in which the number of overlaps between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the above-mentioned overlap number threshold.

[0240] In some embodiments, when the overlap number threshold corresponding to overlap number information 1 is greater than the overlap number threshold corresponding to overlap number information 2, if measurement configuration information 2 corresponding to overlap number information 2 is currently used, if the number of overlaps between the transmission time and the measurement time exceeds the overlap number threshold corresponding to overlap number information 2, measurement configuration information 1 can be used.

[0241] The measurement period corresponding to the measurement configuration information 1 is greater than the measurement period corresponding to the measurement configuration information 2 , and / or the measurement time corresponding to the measurement configuration information 1 is less than the measurement time corresponding to the measurement configuration information 2 .

[0242] In some embodiments, after the number of overlaps between the transmission time and the measurement time exceeds a threshold number of overlaps, the terminal device may select measurement configuration information having a measurement period greater than the current measurement configuration information and / or a measurement time less than the current measurement configuration information. When there is no measurement configuration information having a measurement period greater than the current measurement configuration information and / or a measurement time less than the current measurement configuration information, the current measurement configuration information may be subjected to measurement relaxation. For example, the measurement period corresponding to the current measurement configuration information may be increased and / or the measurement time corresponding to the current measurement configuration information may be reduced.

[0243] The method for determining measurement configuration information provided in the embodiment of the present application is that the terminal device can determine more reasonable measurement configuration information by utilizing the correlation between the measurement configuration information indicated by the network device and the above-mentioned overlap number information, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between the data transmission time and the measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission and better balancing measurement requirements and data transmission requirements.

[0244] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information includes measurement configuration information and the overlapping times information.

[0245] Optionally, the first measurement configuration information may include one or more measurement configuration information and one overlapping times information. For example, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1 and overlapping times information 1.

[0246] In some embodiments, when the overlap number information 1 includes an overlap number threshold, the terminal device may determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service period in which the overlap number between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the overlap number threshold.

[0247] In some embodiments, when the measurement time and overlap number information corresponding to the measurement configuration information 1 are greater than the overlap number threshold, appropriate measurement relaxation can be performed, for example, extending the measurement period, the extended measurement period is the measurement period * N, N can be a value greater than or equal to 1; or, shortening the measurement time, such as the first measurement time is the second measurement time * N, N is a value less than 1, the first measurement time is the measurement time after the measurement time is shortened, and the second measurement time is the original measurement time.

[0248] In some embodiments, when the above-mentioned overlap number information 1 includes an overlap number threshold, and the number of overlaps between the transmission time of the data service of the terminal device and the measurement time corresponding to the measurement configuration information 1 is greater than the above-mentioned overlap number threshold, the terminal device can adjust the measurement configuration information.

[0249] Optionally, adjusting the measurement configuration information includes any of the following methods:

[0250] Method 1: Select the measurement configuration information with a measurement period greater than the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, and / or a measurement time less than the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 as the usable measurement configuration information. For example, if measurement configuration information 2 is configured and the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 2 is greater than the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1, measurement configuration information 2 is selected for use.

[0251] Method 2: Amplify the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1. For example, multiply the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 by a coefficient k (k>1).

[0252] Method 3: shortening the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1. For example, multiplying the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 by a coefficient n (n<1).

[0253] Method 4: Enlarge the measurement period corresponding to measurement configuration information 1 and simultaneously reduce the measurement time corresponding to measurement configuration information 1.

[0254] The method for determining measurement configuration information provided in the embodiment of the present application is that the terminal device can use the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information and use more reasonable measurement configuration information to reduce the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission.

[0255] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may be respectively related to the service cycle information and the overlapping times information.

[0256] In some implementations, the first measurement configuration information may be used to indicate an association relationship between one or more pieces of measurement configuration information and the service cycle information and the overlap times information.

[0257] Exemplarily, the measurement configuration information 1 may be associated with the service cycle information 1 and the overlap times information 1 .

[0258] Exemplarily, when the above-mentioned business cycle information includes a business cycle value and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes an overlap times threshold, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 associates the first business cycle value with the first overlap times threshold, indicating that measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a business cycle whose cycle value is equal to the above-mentioned first business cycle value and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0259] When the above-mentioned business cycle information includes a business cycle threshold and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes an overlap times threshold, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 associates the first business cycle threshold with the first overlap times threshold, indicating that measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a business cycle whose cycle value is less than or equal to the above-mentioned first business cycle value and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0260] When the above-mentioned service cycle information includes non-integer service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes an overlap times threshold, the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information can be used to indicate that measurement configuration information 1 is associated with non-integer service cycle information, indicating that measurement configuration information 1 can be applied to a service cycle whose cycle value is non-integer and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0261] In some embodiments, the first measurement configuration information may include the measurement configuration information, the service cycle information, and the overlap times information. For example, the first measurement configuration information may include measurement configuration information 1, service cycle information 1, and overlap times information 1.

[0262] When the above-mentioned service cycle information 1 includes a first service cycle value and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, the terminal device can determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is equal to the above-mentioned service cycle value and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0263] When the above-mentioned service cycle information 1 includes the first service cycle threshold and the above-mentioned overlap number information includes the first overlap number threshold, the terminal device can determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is less than or equal to the above-mentioned service cycle threshold and the overlap number between the transmission time and the measurement time is less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap number threshold.

[0264] When the above-mentioned service cycle information 1 includes non-integer service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlap times information includes a first overlap times threshold, the terminal device can determine that the measurement configuration information 1 applies to a service cycle whose cycle value is non-integer and the overlap times between the transmission time and the measurement time are less than or equal to the above-mentioned first overlap times threshold.

[0265] The method for determining measurement configuration information provided in the embodiment of the present application is that the terminal device can determine more reasonable measurement configuration information by utilizing the association between the measurement configuration information indicated by the network device and the above-mentioned service cycle information and the above-mentioned overlapping number information, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between the data transmission time and the measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission and better balancing the measurement requirements and data transmission requirements.

[0266] In some embodiments, when there is periodic data service, the terminal device can determine the usable measurement configuration information based on the above-mentioned first measurement configuration information; and the auxiliary information reported to the network device. The network device can determine the current service cycle of the terminal device by analyzing this information.

[0267] When the network device determines the service cycle of the current data service of the terminal device based on the auxiliary information reported by the terminal device, it can determine one or more measurement configuration information suitable for the terminal device based on the service cycle, and indicate it to the terminal device by sending a first indication information.

[0268] It can be understood that the terminal device and the network device can use the same mechanism to determine the measurement configuration information suitable for the terminal device based on the relationship between the measurement configuration information and the service cycle information and / or the number of overlap information, thereby enabling the terminal device to determine that the usable measurement configuration information belongs to the measurement configuration information indicated in the first indication information sent by the network device to the terminal device.

[0269] In some implementations, when the terminal device receives the first indication information from the network device, the terminal device may use or activate the determined usable measurement configuration information based on the first indication information.

[0270] In some implementations, when the first indication information indicates to use or activate multiple measurement configuration information, if the terminal device determines that the multiple measurement configuration information are all usable measurement configuration information, the terminal device may choose to activate the measurement configuration information with the smallest measurement period.

[0271] The method for determining measurement configuration information provided in an embodiment of the present application is that the terminal device can activate reasonable measurement configuration information based on the first indication information sent by the network device, thereby reducing the probability of overlap between data transmission time and measurement time, thereby improving the efficiency of data transmission.
