For example, A and / or B can represent three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0295] In the embodiments of the present application, the term "plurality" refers to two or more than two, and other quantifiers are similar.

[0296] In the embodiments of the present application, the terms "first," "second," and the like are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the objects distinguished by "first" and "second" are generally of the same type, and do not limit the number of objects. For example, the first object can be one or more.

[0297] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0298] In order to facilitate a clearer understanding of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present application, some technical contents related to the various embodiments of the present application are first introduced.

[0299] 1. Layer 1 or Layer 2 Triggered Mobility (LTM)

[0300] LTM is introduced in New Radio (NR) mobility. That is, the network pre-configures LTM candidate cell configuration information and LTM L1 measurement configuration information for the UE. The UE performs L1 measurement of the candidate cell based on the LTM L1 measurement configuration information and reports the LTM L1 measurement result to the network. The network makes a cell change decision based on the L1 measurement result information reported by the UE. If the network decides that a cell change is required, the network will send a cell change command to the UE through the Media Access Control Control Element (MAC CE), which carries the identification information of the target cell. When the UE receives the cell change MAC CE, it will execute the cell change and access the target candidate cell.

[0301] 2. L1 measurement reporting

[0302] The reference signal and reporting configuration for the current LTM L1 measurement are configured to the terminal through Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling. The terminal then performs measurement based on the configured L1 reference signal and reports the L1 measurement results on the corresponding physical channel through the configured reporting resources. The reporting modes include periodic Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) reporting, semi-persistent PUCCH reporting, semi-persistent Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) reporting, and aperiodic PUSCH reporting.

[0303] An event-triggered L1 measurement reporting mechanism is currently under discussion. However, when a measurement reporting event is satisfied (triggered), how the UE performs measurement reporting and what measurement results are reported are not yet clear.

[0304] Figure 1 One of the flow diagrams of the layer 1 measurement reporting method based on event triggering provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to the terminal, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0305] Step 100: After determining that at least one measurement reporting event is satisfied, determine whether to trigger a measurement report based on first measurement reporting configuration information.

[0306] Step 101: When it is determined to perform measurement reporting, a measurement result to be carried in this measurement reporting is determined based on second measurement reporting configuration information.

[0307] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first measurement reporting configuration information is used to configure the conditions or rules for the UE to initiate measurement reporting (i.e., reporting of measurement results) after a measurement reporting event is satisfied (i.e., a threshold condition corresponding to the measurement reporting event is satisfied). The second measurement reporting configuration information is used to configure the measurement results that the UE can carry in each measurement report.

[0308] When the UE measurement evaluation finds that at least one measurement reporting event is satisfied, the UE determines whether to trigger a measurement report based on the first measurement reporting configuration information.

[0309] When the UE determines to trigger a measurement report and performs the measurement report, it may determine the measurement result required to be carried in this measurement report based on the second measurement report configuration information.

[0310] In the embodiment of the present application, the measurement reporting event can be for cell configuration or beam configuration, which is not limited in this application.

[0311] The event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application can determine whether to trigger a measurement report based on the first measurement reporting configuration information after determining that at least one measurement reporting event is met, thereby avoiding frequent triggering of unnecessary measurement reports and reducing reporting overhead. In the case of determining to perform measurement reporting, the UE can determine the measurement result carried by this measurement report based on the second measurement reporting configuration information, thereby effectively solving the problem of event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting and improving the flexibility of event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting.

[0312] In some embodiments, the first measurement reporting configuration information includes one or more of the following:

[0313] (1) Continuous and periodic reporting of configuration information.

[0314] The configuration information of the continuous periodic reporting is used to configure the UE to perform continuous periodic reporting. The reporting in this application refers to L1 measurement reporting. This concept remains consistent throughout the text and will not be repeated later.

[0315] In some embodiments, the continuously periodically reported configuration information includes one or more of the following:

[0316] Instruction information for instructing continuous periodic reporting;

[0317] Reporting cycle;

[0318] Maximum number of reports;

[0319] reporting interval;

[0320] Indication information used to indicate whether periodic reporting after the initial measurement report needs to meet the measurement reporting event.

[0321] (2) Instruction information for instructing a single report.

[0322] Single reporting can be understood as the UE triggering a measurement report only when the measurement reporting event is triggered (satisfied) for the first time.

[0323] (3) A measurement report prohibition timer associated with a measurement report event. The measurement report prohibition timer is used to indicate that the terminal triggers a measurement report after the measurement report prohibition timer times out.

[0324] (4) First indication information, where the first indication information is used to instruct the terminal to trigger a measurement report when a first condition is met. The first condition includes: a change in a measurement result when the current measurement report event is triggered compared to a measurement result when the previous measurement report event is triggered is greater than a first threshold.

[0325] The measurement result may be a per-cell measurement result or a per-beam measurement result. The specific type of the measurement result is not limited herein, and may be, for example, a Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), a Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), or other types of measurement results.

[0326] In some implementations, the measurement result may be the top N best measurement results (N≥1).

[0327] In some implementations, the change amount may be an increase or a decrease.

[0328] In some implementations, whether the change is specifically an increase or a decrease can be configured by the network.

[0329] In some implementations, the first threshold may be a threshold preconfigured by the network.

[0330] In some implementations, the first indication information may be the first threshold, that is, the first threshold is configured in the first measurement reporting configuration information, and the first threshold indicates that the UE triggers a measurement report when the first condition is met.

[0331] (5) Second indication information, which is used to indicate that the terminal triggers a measurement report when a second condition is met, and the second condition includes: the change in the number of beams that meet the event when this measurement report event is triggered compared to the number of beams that meet the event when the last measurement report event is triggered is greater than a second threshold.

[0332] In this application, a beam that meets an event refers to a beam whose measurement result meets the threshold condition corresponding to the measurement reporting event.

[0333] In some embodiments, for the case where the measurement reporting event is configured per cell, the number of beams that meet the event can be per cell, that is, the number of beams that meet the event when the measurement reporting event of this cell is triggered, and the number of beams that meet the event when the measurement reporting event was triggered last time are counted on a cell-by-cell basis.

[0334] In some implementations, the change amount may be an increase or a decrease.

[0335] In some implementations, whether the change is specifically an increase or a decrease can be configured by the network.

[0336] In some implementations, the second threshold may be a threshold preconfigured by the network or a preset threshold (eg, 1).

[0337] In some implementations, the second indication information may be the second threshold, that is, the second threshold is configured in the first measurement reporting configuration information, and the second threshold indicates that the UE triggers a measurement report when the second condition is met.

[0338] (6) Third indication information, which is used to indicate that the terminal triggers a measurement report when a third condition is met. The third condition includes: after the last measurement report, the change in the measurement result of the first beam that meets the event is greater than a third threshold, and the first beam is not reported to the network.

[0339] The first beam may be one or more beams. For example, if, after the last measurement report, the measurement result change of at least one beam that meets the event is greater than the third threshold, and the at least one beam that meets the event is not reported to the network, it means that the third condition is met.

[0340] In some implementations, the change amount may be an increase or a decrease.

[0341] In some implementations, whether the change is specifically an increase or a decrease can be configured by the network.

[0342] In some implementations, the third threshold may be a threshold preconfigured by the network or a preset value or a default value (such as 1).

[0343] In some implementations, the third indication information may be the third threshold, that is, the third threshold is configured in the first measurement report configuration information, and the third threshold indicates that the UE triggers a measurement report when the third condition is met.

[0344] (7) Fourth indication information, which is used to indicate that the terminal triggers a measurement report when a fourth condition is met. The fourth condition includes: after the last measurement report, the change in the measurement result of the second beam that meets the event is greater than a fourth threshold, the second beam has been reported to the network, and the network has not been notified after the event is no longer met.

[0345] The second beam may be one or more beams. For example, if, after the last measurement report, the measurement result change of at least one beam that meets the event is greater than the fourth threshold, and this at least one beam that meets the event has been reported to the network and has not been notified after the event is no longer met, then the fourth condition is met.

[0346] In some implementations, the change amount may be an increase or a decrease.

[0347] In some implementations, whether the change is specifically an increase or a decrease can be configured by the network.

[0348] In some implementations, the fourth threshold may be a threshold preconfigured by the network or a preset value or a default value (such as 1).

[0349] In some implementations, the fourth indication information may be the fourth threshold, that is, the fourth threshold is configured in the first measurement reporting configuration information, and the fourth threshold indicates that the UE triggers a measurement report when the fourth condition is met.

[0350] (8) Fifth indication information, which is used to indicate that the terminal triggers a measurement report when the fifth condition is met, and the fifth condition includes at least one of the following: after the last measurement report, the number of newly added beams that meet the event is greater than the fifth threshold, and the newly added beams that meet the event are not reported to the network; after the last measurement report, the number of newly added beams that do not meet the event is greater than the fifth threshold, the newly added beams that do not meet the event have been reported to the network, and the network has not been notified after the event is not met.

[0351] In some implementations, the fifth threshold may be a threshold preconfigured by the network or a preset value or a default value (eg, 1).

[0352] In some implementations, the fifth indication information may be the fifth threshold, that is, the fifth threshold is configured in the first measurement report configuration information, and the fifth threshold indicates that the UE triggers a measurement report when the fifth condition is met.

[0353] In some embodiments, the fifth indication information may include indication information for reporting when newly added (i.e., the number of newly added beams that satisfy the event is greater than the fifth threshold, and the newly added beams that satisfy the event are not reported to the network) or when reduced (i.e., the number of newly added beams that do not satisfy the event is greater than the fifth threshold, the newly added beams that do not satisfy the event have been reported to the network, and the network has not been notified after the event is not satisfied. It can be understood that the newly added beams that do not satisfy the event are the beams that satisfy the event that are reduced from the original beams that satisfy the event) or indication information for reporting in both cases.

[0354] (9) Sixth indication information, which is used to instruct the terminal to trigger a measurement report when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0355] This application does not limit whether the beam with the best signal quality satisfies the event. The beam with the best signal quality may be the beam that satisfies the event or the beam that does not satisfy the event. For example, the beam with the best signal quality may be the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that satisfy the event or the beam with the best signal quality among all measured beams.

[0356] In some embodiments, the second measurement reporting configuration information includes one or more of the following:

[0357] (1) Seventh indication information, which is used to instruct the terminal to report the latest measurement result of the cell or beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event for which the measurement result was reported to the network due to event triggering.

[0358] (2) Eighth indication information, the eighth indication information is used to instruct the terminal to report the measurement result of the current serving cell.

[0359] (3) Ninth indication information, which is used to indicate whether the measurement results reported by the terminal include the measurement results of neighboring cells.

[0360] (4) The maximum number of cells reported.

[0361] (5) Maximum number of measurement results that can be reported.

[0362] The maximum number of measurement results reported may be the maximum number of measurement results reported for this report, or the maximum number of measurement results reported for each reporting cell.

[0363] In some implementations, the network may indicate whether the maximum number of reported measurement results is the maximum number of reported measurement results for this report, or the maximum number of reported measurement results for each reporting cell.

[0364] (6) Maximum number of reported beams.

[0365] The maximum reported number of beams may be the maximum reported number of beams for this report, or the maximum reported number of beams for each reporting cell.

[0366] In some implementations, the network may indicate whether the maximum reported number of beams is the maximum reported number of beams for this report or the maximum reported number of beams for each reporting cell.

[0367] (7) Tenth indication information, which is used to indicate whether the terminal reports only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that is satisfied this time.

[0368] (8) Eleventh indication information, which is used to indicate whether the terminal reports only the measurement result corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggers the current measurement report.

[0369] (9) Twelfth indication information, which is used to instruct the terminal to report only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that meet the event, without reporting the measurement result.

[0370] (10) Thirteenth indication information, which is used to instruct the terminal to report only the index of the beam that meets the event, without reporting the measurement result.

[0371] (11) Fourteenth indication information, which is used to instruct the terminal to report the index of the beam that does not meet the event, without reporting the measurement result.

[0372] (12) Fifteenth indication information, which is used to instruct the terminal to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0373] This application does not limit whether the beam with the best signal quality satisfies the event. The beam with the best signal quality may be the beam that satisfies the event or the beam that does not satisfy the event. For example, the beam with the best signal quality may be the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that satisfy the event or the beam with the best signal quality among all measured beams.

[0374] In some implementations, the fifteenth indication information is used to instruct the UE to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality only when the beam with the best signal quality changes, and not to report otherwise.

[0375] In some embodiments, determining whether to trigger a measurement report based on the first measurement reporting configuration information includes:

[0376] Perform a first operation for each measurement reporting event, where the first operation includes one or more of the following:

[0377] (1) Determine whether the measurement reporting event is satisfied for the first time, and trigger a measurement report if the measurement reporting event is satisfied for the first time.

[0378] How to determine whether a measurement reporting event is satisfied for the first time (or triggered for the first time) may depend on UE implementation or be determined based on corresponding UE variables. For example, the UE may maintain certain UE variables to record parameter information related to the measurement reporting event, wherein one or more UE variables may be used to determine whether the measurement reporting event is satisfied for the first time. Examples of UE variables are described below and are not repeated here.

[0379] In some embodiments, the first time the condition is satisfied is calculated from the time when the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event times out, or from the time when the terminal receives the L1 measurement configuration information.

[0380] (2) Determine whether the number of times the measurement reporting event is reported is lower than the maximum number of times the network side configures, and trigger a measurement report if the number of times the measurement reporting event is reported is lower than the maximum number of times the network side configures.

[0381] In some implementations, how to determine whether the number of reports of a measurement reporting event is less than the maximum number of reports configured on the network side may depend on UE implementation or be determined based on a corresponding UE variable. For example, the UE maintains a UE variable for recording the number of times a measurement reporting event triggers a measurement report (such as variable 2 described below). The value of the UE variable is compared with the maximum number of reports configured on the network side to determine whether the number of reports of the measurement reporting event is less than the maximum number of reports configured on the network side.

[0382] (3) Determine whether the time interval from the most recent measurement report due to a measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side, and trigger a measurement report if the time interval from the most recent measurement report due to a measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side.

[0383] In some implementation methods, how to determine whether the time interval from the most recent measurement report due to a measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side may depend on the UE implementation or be determined based on the corresponding UE variable. For example, the UE maintains a certain UE variable for recording the absolute time information of the measurement reporting triggered by the measurement reporting event (such as variable 1 in the following text), subtracts the most recent measurement reporting time in the UE variable from the current time, and then compares it with the reporting period configured on the network side to determine whether the time interval from the most recent measurement report due to the measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side. Alternatively, variable 3 in the following text may also be used to determine whether the time interval from the most recent measurement report due to a measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side. Please refer to the description below and will not be repeated here.

[0384] In some embodiments, the most recent measurement report caused by a measurement reporting event is calculated from the time when a measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event times out, or from the time when the terminal receives L1 measurement configuration information.

[0385] (4) Determine whether the first condition is met, and trigger a measurement report if the first condition is met.

[0386] In some implementations, determining whether the first condition is satisfied may depend on UE implementation or be determined based on a corresponding UE variable. For example, the UE may maintain a UE variable to record the change in the measurement result at the time of the current event trigger compared to the measurement result at the time of the previous event trigger (such as variable 4 described below). Whether the first condition is satisfied may be determined by comparing the value of the UE variable with a first threshold. Alternatively, determining whether the first condition is satisfied may be performed using variable 6 described below. This will be described below and will not be repeated here.

[0387] (5) Determine whether the second condition is met, and trigger a measurement report if the second condition is met.

[0388] In some implementations, how to determine whether the second condition is satisfied may depend on the UE implementation or be determined based on a corresponding UE variable. For example, the UE maintains a UE variable for recording the change in the number of beams satisfying the event when the current event is triggered compared to the number of beams satisfying the event when the previous event is triggered (such as variable 5 described below). The value of the UE variable is compared with the second threshold to determine whether the second condition is satisfied. Alternatively, variable 7 described below may be used to determine whether the second condition is satisfied. Please refer to the description below and will not be repeated here.

[0389] (6) Determine whether the third condition is met, and trigger a measurement report if the third condition is met.

[0390] In some implementations, how to determine whether the third condition is satisfied may depend on UE implementation or be determined based on corresponding UE variables. For example, the UE may maintain certain UE variables to record parameter information related to the third condition, such as the beam that meets the event, the measurement result of the beam, and the change in the measurement result of the beam. These UE variables can then be used to determine whether the third condition is satisfied.

[0391] (7) Determine whether the fourth condition is met, and trigger a measurement report if the fourth condition is met.

[0392] In some implementations, how to determine whether the fourth condition is met may depend on UE implementation or be determined based on corresponding UE variables. For example, the UE may maintain certain UE variables to record parameter information related to the fourth condition, such as recording the beam that meets the event, the measurement result of the beam, the change in the measurement result of the beam, etc., so that these UE variables can be used to determine whether the fourth condition is met.

[0393] (8) Determine whether the fifth condition is met, and trigger a measurement report if the fifth condition is met.

[0394] In some implementations, how to determine whether the fifth condition is met may depend on UE implementation or be determined based on corresponding UE variables. For example, the UE may maintain certain UE variables to record parameter information related to the fifth condition, such as recording beams that meet the event and beams that do not meet the event, so that these UE variables can be used to determine whether the fifth condition is met.

[0395] (9) Determine whether the beam with the best signal quality has changed, and trigger a measurement report if the beam with the best signal quality has changed.

[0396] In some implementations, determining whether the beam with the best signal quality has changed may depend on UE implementation or may be determined based on a corresponding UE variable. For example, the UE may maintain a UE variable to record the beam with the best signal quality, and the UE variable may be used to determine whether the beam with the best signal quality has changed.

[0397] (10) Determine whether a measurement report prohibition timer associated with the measurement report event has timed out, and trigger a measurement report if the measurement report prohibition timer associated with the measurement report event has timed out.

[0398] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0399] When the measurement reporting event triggers a measurement report, a second operation is further performed for the measurement reporting event, where the second operation includes one or more of the following:

[0400] (1) Under the premise that no measurement reporting event is required, determine whether to trigger subsequent measurement reporting based on the reporting period and maximum reporting times configured on the network side.

[0401] For example, if a measurement reporting event triggers a measurement report, the UE can directly determine whether to trigger subsequent measurement reports based on the reporting period and maximum reporting times configured by the network side, without depending on whether the measurement reporting event is satisfied.

[0402] (2) Under the premise that no measurement reporting event is required, after the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event times out, a measurement report is triggered again for the measurement reporting event.

[0403] For example, if a measurement reporting event triggers a measurement report, the UE may directly trigger a report for the measurement reporting event after the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event times out, without determining whether the measurement reporting event is satisfied.

[0404] (3) Under the premise that the measurement reporting event is met, determine whether to trigger subsequent measurement reporting based on the reporting cycle and maximum reporting times configured on the network side.

[0405] For example, if a measurement reporting event triggers a measurement report, the UE still needs to trigger subsequent measurement reports according to the reporting period and maximum reporting times configured by the network side when the measurement reporting event is satisfied.

[0406] (4) Under the premise that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, after the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event times out, a measurement report is triggered again for the measurement reporting event.

[0407] For example, if a measurement reporting event triggers a measurement reporting, the UE still needs to trigger a measurement reporting for the measurement reporting event after the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event times out, if the measurement reporting event is satisfied.

[0408] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0409] Before executing the first operation, determining whether a measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event has timed out;

[0410] When it is determined that the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event has timed out, it is determined to perform a first operation.

[0411] Specifically, before executing the first operation, the UE needs to first determine whether the measurement reporting prohibition timer for the measurement reporting event has timed out, and when the measurement reporting prohibition timer times out, the UE executes the behavior specified in the first operation for the measurement reporting event.

[0412] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0413] After performing a measurement report, perform one or more of the following operations:

[0414] For each measurement reporting event that meets the triggering condition during the current measurement reporting (i.e., each measurement reporting event that meets the triggering condition this time), start the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event;

[0415] For each measurement reporting event that meets the triggering condition during the current measurement reporting, the reporting number counter associated with the measurement reporting event is incremented by one;

[0416] For each measurement report event that meets the triggering condition during the current measurement report, update the time difference between the current measurement report and the most recent measurement report caused by the measurement report event;

[0417] For each measurement reporting event that meets the triggering conditions during the current measurement reporting, record the time information of the current measurement reporting;

[0418] For each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement reporting, start the measurement reporting prohibition timer associated with the measurement reporting event;

[0419] For each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement reporting, the reporting times counter associated with the measurement reporting event is incremented by one;

[0420] For each measurement report event that triggers this measurement report, update the time difference between this measurement report and the most recent measurement report caused by this measurement report event;

[0421] For each measurement report event that triggers this measurement report, the time information of this measurement report is recorded.

[0422] In some embodiments, the measurement results carried in this measurement report include one or more of the following:

[0423] The latest measurement results of the cell or beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event that has reported the measurement results to the network due to event triggering;

[0424] Measurement results of the current serving cell;

[0425] Measurement results of neighboring areas;

[0426] The measurement result corresponding to the measurement reporting event that is satisfied this time;

[0427] The measurement result corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggered this measurement reporting;

[0428] The index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that satisfy the event;

[0429] The index of the beam that satisfies the event;

[0430] The index of the beam that does not satisfy the event;

[0431] The index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality.

[0432] In some embodiments, when the measurement results carried in the report include only measurement results of the current serving cell, the number of such measurement results does not exceed the maximum number of reported measurement results indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information. For example, assuming that the maximum number of reported measurement results indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information is Y, the number of reported measurement results of the current serving cell is ≤ Y.

[0433] In some embodiments, when the measurement results carried in the report only include measurement results of neighboring cells, the number of the neighboring cells does not exceed the maximum number of cells reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information. Assuming that the maximum number of cells reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information is X, the number of neighboring cells ≤ X.

[0434] In some embodiments, when the measurement results carried in the report only include measurement results of neighboring cells, the number of such measurement results does not exceed the maximum number of measurement results reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information (if the maximum number of measurement results reported is for this report), or does not exceed the product of the maximum number of measurement results reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information and the maximum number of cells reported (if the maximum number of measurement results reported is for each reporting cell). For example, assuming that the maximum number of measurement results reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information is Y (for this report), the number of measurement results of neighboring cells reported is ≤ Y. assuming that the maximum number of measurement results reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information is Y (for each reporting cell), and the maximum number of cells reported indicated in the second measurement reporting configuration information is X, the number of measurement results of neighboring cells reported is ≤ X*Y.

[0435] In some embodiments, the reported measurement results include one or more of the following:

[0436] Cell-level measurement results;

[0437] Beam-level measurement results;

[0438] Beam identification;

[0439] Cell ID.

[0440] In some embodiments, in the case where the reported measurement results include a beam identifier, the beam identifier may be an identifier of a beam that satisfies the event, or a beam identifier recommended by the UE.

[0441] In some embodiments, in the case where the reported measurement result includes a cell identifier, the cell identifier may be an identifier of a cell that meets a measurement reporting event triggering condition, or a cell identifier recommended by the UE.

[0442] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0443] Receive first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information sent by the network device.

[0444] Specifically, the network side can configure the first measurement reporting configuration information and / or the second measurement reporting configuration information to the UE, so that after the measurement reporting event is met, the UE can determine whether to trigger a measurement report based on the first measurement reporting configuration information, and when it is determined to perform the measurement reporting, determine the measurement results required to be carried in this measurement report based on the second measurement reporting configuration information.

[0445] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0446] receiving a configuration identifier sent by a network device;

[0447] The first measurement reporting configuration information and / or the second measurement reporting configuration information are determined based on the configuration identifier.

[0448] Specifically, there may be multiple combinations between the items included in the above-mentioned first measurement reporting configuration information and the items included in the second measurement reporting configuration information. Each combination may correspond to a configuration identifier. The network side sends the corresponding configuration identifier to the UE according to the combination to be configured to the UE, and the UE determines the specific first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information according to the configuration identifier sent by the network side.

[0449] In some implementations, various combinations may be agreed upon and each combination may be uniquely numbered (ie, a configuration identifier). The UE may directly determine the specific first measurement reporting configuration information and / or the second measurement reporting configuration information based on the configuration identifier sent by the network.

[0450] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0451] Mapping indication information sent by a network device is received, where the mapping indication information is used to indicate, for at least one configuration identifier, first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information mapped by each configuration identifier.

[0452] Specifically, in some implementations, the mapping relationship between the configuration identifier and the first measurement reporting configuration information and / or the second measurement reporting configuration information may not be agreed upon by the protocol, but may be indicated to the UE by the network side. After the UE receives the configuration identifier sent by the network side, it determines the specific first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information based on the configuration identifier and the mapping indication information sent by the network side.

[0453] Figure 2 The second flow chart of the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to a network device, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0454] Step 200: Send first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information to the terminal, or send a configuration identifier for indicating the first measurement reporting configuration information and / or the second measurement reporting configuration information to the terminal; wherein the first measurement reporting configuration information is used by the terminal to determine whether to trigger a measurement report after determining that at least one measurement reporting event is satisfied; the second measurement reporting configuration information is used by the terminal to determine the measurement result carried in this measurement report when determining to perform measurement reporting.

[0455] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0456] Mapping indication information is sent to the terminal, where the mapping indication information is used to indicate, for at least one configuration identifier, the first measurement reporting configuration information and / or the second measurement reporting configuration information mapped by each configuration identifier.

[0457] The methods provided in the various embodiments of this application are based on the same application concept, so the implementation of each method can refer to each other, and the repeated parts will not be repeated.

[0458] The following describes the methods provided in the above embodiments of the present application through examples of specific application scenarios.

[0459] Example 1: The UE may trigger periodic measurement reporting for each measurement reporting event.

[0460] Step 1-1: The network side sends an RRC reconfiguration message, which carries the configuration related to the event-triggered L1 measurement (measurement object (which can be cell or beam level), measurement reporting event associated with the measurement object, measurement evaluation criteria, etc.).

[0461] Optionally, in step 1-1, the network may further configure first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information to the UE.

[0462] The first measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0463] Instruct the UE to perform continuous periodic reporting;

[0464] Reporting cycle (reporting interval);

[0465] Maximum number of reports;

[0466] An indication of whether periodic reporting after the initial measurement report needs to meet the measurement reporting event.

[0467] The second measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0468] Instructs the UE to report the latest measurement results of the cell / beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event for which the measurement results have been reported to the network due to event triggering;

[0469] Instructs the UE to carry the measurement results of the current serving cell;

[0470] Indicates whether the measurement results reported by the UE include the measurement results of neighboring cells;

[0471] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of cells to be reported when performing measurement reporting;

[0472] Instructing the UE to report the maximum number of measurement results Y when performing measurement reporting; further, the network will indicate whether this is the maximum number of measurement results reported for this report, or the maximum number of measurement results reported for each reporting cell;

[0473] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of beams, Z, when performing measurement reporting. Furthermore, the network indicates whether this is the maximum number of beams reported for this report, or the maximum number of beams reported for each reporting cell.

[0474] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that is met this time when performing measurement reporting;

[0475] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggered this measurement reporting when performing measurement reporting;

[0476] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0477] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam that meets the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0478] Instructs the UE to report the index of the beam that does not meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0479] Instruct the UE to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0480] Step 1-2: The UE performs L1 measurement and evaluation based on the event-triggered L1 measurement configuration information provided by the network side.

[0481] Optionally, the UE maintains a UE variable or an element in a UE variable for each measurement reporting event. The UE variable is at least one of the following:

[0482] The absolute time variable (hereinafter referred to as variable 1) of the measurement reporting triggered by the measurement reporting event (optionally, a list is maintained for each measurement reporting event);

[0483] The UE variable is used to record the number of measurement reports triggered by the measurement reporting event (hereinafter referred to as variable 2);

[0484] The UE variable is used to record a time difference variable (hereinafter referred to as variable 3) between the measurement reporting event and the most recent measurement reporting event that meets and triggers the measurement reporting.

[0485] The UE will initialize the above UE variables respectively, such as initializing the above variables 1 / 2 / 3 to 0.

[0486] Afterwards, the UE performs any of the following operations (1) and (2):

[0487] (1): When a measurement reporting event is met, multiple periodic reports are triggered, and subsequent measurement reports do not need to be performed when the measurement reporting event is met.

[0488] Specifically:

[0489] Perform steps 1-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0490] Step 1-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time (satisfied for the first time), the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0491] The determination that the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time may depend on UE implementation judgment, or may be determined based on the variable value being 0 in the corresponding UE variable.

[0492] Step 1-3-2: At each interval of the reporting cycle configured by the network side (without determining whether the measurement reporting event is satisfied), the UE performs the following operations:

[0493] The UE determines whether the number of reports exceeds the maximum number of reports configured on the network side:

[0494] If yes, the UE does not trigger a measurement report, and optionally stops the measurement evaluation for the event, or does not initiate a measurement report for the event of the measurement evaluation even if a subsequent measurement evaluation for the event finds that the condition is met;

[0495] If not, the UE triggers a measurement report (not necessarily when the measurement reporting event is satisfied).

[0496] Step 1-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above steps 1-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0497] Optionally, each time the UE performs a measurement report, for each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement report, the UE updates the corresponding UE variable, and the specific operations include at least one of the following:

[0498] If variable 1 contains a list, add a new element to the list of variable 1, where the new element is the time reported for this measurement;

[0499] If variable 1 contains a numerical value, the value in variable 1 is updated to the time reported by this measurement;

[0500] For variable 2, add 1 to it;

[0501] For variable 3, it is updated to the time difference between the current measurement report and the measurement report caused by the most recent measurement report event (when the report is triggered for the first time, the time difference is 0).

[0502] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0503] The latest measurement results of the cell / beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event that has reported the measurement results to the network due to event triggering;

[0504] Only the measurement results of the current serving cell are included; optionally, the number of the measurement results is ≤ Y;

[0505] Only measurement results of neighboring cells are included; optionally, the number of measurement results is ≤ Y; optionally, the number of measurement results is ≤ X*Y; optionally, the number of included neighboring cells is ≤ X;

[0506] Only the measurement results corresponding to the events that meet the measurement reporting event during this report are included;

[0507] Only includes the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that caused the current measurement reporting to be triggered;

[0508] Only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that satisfy the event is included;

[0509] Contains only the indices of beams that satisfy the event;

[0510] The index of the beam that does not satisfy the event;

[0511] The index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality.

[0512] The measurement results include one or more of the following:

[0513] Cell-level measurement results;

[0514] Beam-level measurement results;

[0515] Beam identification;

[0516] Cell ID.

[0517] (2): For each measurement reporting event, when the measurement reporting event is met, periodic reporting is triggered.

[0518] Specifically:

[0519] Perform steps 1-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0520] Step 1-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time (ie, because the measurement reporting event is satisfied and no measurement reporting has been triggered before), the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0521] Step 1-3-2: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, but the measurement reporting event is not triggered for the first time, and the measurement reporting has been triggered and performed before due to the satisfaction of the measurement reporting event, the UE performs the following operations:

[0522] The UE determines whether the time difference between the current triggering time and the most recent measurement reporting time due to the measurement reporting event being met is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side:

[0523] If it is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side, the UE further determines whether the number of reports triggered by the measurement reporting event is greater than the maximum number of reports configured on the network side; if so, no measurement report is triggered; if not, a measurement report is triggered;

[0524] If it is not greater than the measurement reporting period configured on the network side, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0525] Among them, the "UE determines whether the time difference between the time of this trigger and the time of the most recent measurement report due to the satisfaction of the measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine whether the corresponding UE variable 3 is greater than the reporting period, and / or subtract the time of the most recent measurement report triggering time in the corresponding UE variable 1 from the time when the current measurement reporting event is satisfied, and then determine whether the difference is greater than the reporting period.

[0526] Among them, the "UE determines whether the number of reports triggered by the measurement reporting event is greater than the maximum number of reports configured on the network side" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine the size between the value of the corresponding UE variable 2 and the maximum number of reports configured on the network side.

[0527] Step 1-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in step 3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0528] Optionally, each time the UE performs a measurement report, for each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement report, the UE updates the corresponding UE variable, and the specific operations include at least one of the following:

[0529] If variable 1 contains a list, add a new element to the list of variable 1, where the new element is the time reported for this measurement;

[0530] If variable 1 contains a numerical value, the value in variable 1 is updated to the time reported by this measurement;

[0531] For variable 2, add 1 to it;

[0532] For variable 3, it is updated to the time difference between the current measurement report and the measurement report caused by the most recent measurement report event (when the report is triggered for the first time, the time difference is 0).

[0533] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0534] The latest measurement results of the cell / beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event that has reported the measurement results to the network due to event triggering;

[0535] Only the measurement results of the current serving cell are included; optionally, the number of the measurement results is ≤ Y;

[0536] Only measurement results of neighboring cells are included; optionally, the number of measurement results is ≤ Y; optionally, the number of measurement results is ≤ X*Y; optionally, the number of included neighboring cells is ≤ X;

[0537] Only the measurement results corresponding to the events that meet the measurement reporting event during this report are included;

[0538] Only includes the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that caused the current measurement reporting to be triggered;

[0539] Only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that satisfy the event is included;

[0540] Contains only the indices of beams that satisfy the event;

[0541] The index of the beam that does not satisfy the event;

[0542] The index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality.

[0543] The measurement results include one or more of the following:

[0544] Cell-level measurement results;

[0545] Beam-level measurement results;

[0546] Beam identification;

[0547] Cell ID.

[0548] Example 2: The UE triggers a single report for each measurement reporting event (reporting can be performed only when the event is met for the first time).

[0549] Step 2-1: The network side sends an RRC reconfiguration message, which carries configurations related to event-triggered L1 measurements (measurement object (which can be cell or beam level), measurement reporting events associated with the measurement object, measurement evaluation criteria, etc.).

[0550] Optionally, in step 2-1, the network may further configure first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information to the UE.

[0551] The first measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0552] Indication information of single reporting (ie, the UE triggers measurement reporting only once when the event is triggered for the first time).

[0553] The second measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0554] Instructs the UE to report the latest measurement results of the cell / beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event for which the measurement results have been reported to the network due to event triggering;

[0555] Instructs the UE to carry the measurement results of the current serving cell;

[0556] Indicates whether the measurement results reported by the UE include the measurement results of neighboring cells;

[0557] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of cells to be reported when performing measurement reporting;

[0558] Instructing the UE to report the maximum number of measurement results Y when performing measurement reporting; further, the network will indicate whether this is the maximum number of measurement results reported for this report, or the maximum number of measurement results reported for each reporting cell;

[0559] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of beams, Z, when performing measurement reporting. Furthermore, the network indicates whether this is the maximum number of beams reported for this report, or the maximum number of beams reported for each reporting cell.

[0560] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that is met this time when performing measurement reporting;

[0561] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggered this measurement reporting when performing measurement reporting;

[0562] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0564] Instructs the UE to report the index of the beam that does not meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0565] Instruct the UE to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0566] Step 2-2: The UE performs L1 measurement and evaluation based on the event-triggered L1 measurement configuration information provided by the network side.

[0567] Perform steps 2-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0568] Step 2-3: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time, the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0569] The determining whether the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time may depend on the UE implementation judgment.

[0570] Step 2-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 2-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0571] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0596] Indicates whether the measurement results reported by the UE include the measurement results of neighboring cells;

[0597] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of cells to be reported when performing measurement reporting;

[0598] Instructing the UE to report the maximum number of measurement results Y when performing measurement reporting; further, the network will indicate whether this is the maximum number of measurement results reported for this report, or the maximum number of measurement results reported for each reporting cell;

[0599] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of beams, Z, when performing measurement reporting. Furthermore, the network indicates whether this is the maximum number of beams reported for this report, or the maximum number of beams reported for each reporting cell.

[0600] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that is met this time when performing measurement reporting;

[0601] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggered this measurement reporting when performing measurement reporting;

[0602] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0603] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam that meets the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0604] Instructs the UE to report the index of the beam that does not meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0605] Instruct the UE to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0606] Step 3-2: The UE performs L1 measurement and evaluation based on the event-triggered L1 measurement configuration information provided by the network side.

[0607] Optionally, the UE maintains a UE variable or an element in a UE variable for each measurement reporting event. The UE variable is at least one of the following:

[0608] The change in the measurement result at the time of this event triggering compared to the measurement result at the time of the previous event triggering (can be per cell or per beam) (variable 4);

[0609] The change in the number of beams that satisfy the event when this event is triggered compared to the number of beams that satisfy the event when the previous event is triggered (variable 5);

[0610] The measurement result when this event is triggered (variable 6);

[0611] The number of beams that meet the event when this event is triggered (variable 7).

[0612] The UE will initialize the above UE variables respectively, such as initializing the above variables 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 to 0.

[0613] Afterwards, the UE performs step 3-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0614] Step 3-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time (ie, because the measurement reporting event is satisfied and no measurement reporting has been triggered before), the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0615] Step 3-3-2: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, but the measurement reporting event is not triggered for the first time, and the measurement reporting has been triggered and performed before due to the satisfaction of the measurement reporting event, the UE performs one of the following operations:

[0616] Operation 1:

[0617] The UE determines whether the change in the measurement result corresponding to the current measurement reporting event compared to the measurement result at the last event triggering (which can be per cell or per beam) exceeds a threshold pre-configured by the network. The measurement result can be the top N best measurement results.

[0618] If the threshold pre-configured by the network is exceeded, the UE triggers a measurement report.

[0619] If the value does not exceed the threshold pre-configured by the network, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0620] Operation 2: (For per-cell measurement reporting event configuration)

[0621] The UE determines whether a change in the number of beams that satisfy the event when this event is triggered compared to the number of beams that satisfy the event when the last event is triggered is greater than a threshold preconfigured by the network.

[0622] If the threshold pre-configured by the network is exceeded, the UE triggers a measurement report.

[0623] If the value does not exceed the threshold pre-configured by the network, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0624] Among them, the "UE determines whether the change in the measurement result corresponding to when the current measurement reporting event is satisfied compared to the measurement result when the last event is triggered (which can be per cell, per beam) exceeds the network pre-configured threshold" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine the size between the variable 4 and the network pre-configured threshold, and / or subtract the corresponding measurement result recorded in the variable 6 from the measurement result corresponding to when the current measurement reporting event is satisfied, and determine the size between the obtained difference and the network pre-configured threshold.

[0625] Among them, the "UE determines whether the change in the number of beams that meet the event when this event is triggered is greater than the network pre-configured threshold compared to the number of beams that meet the event when the last event is triggered" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine the size between the variable 5 and the network pre-configured threshold, and / or subtract the corresponding number of beams that meet the threshold recorded in the variable 7 from the corresponding number of beams that meet the threshold when the measurement reporting event is met, and determine the size between the obtained difference and the network pre-configured threshold.

[0626] Step 3-3-3: Optionally, each time the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, the UE updates the corresponding UE variable for each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement reporting. The specific operations include at least one of the following:

[0627] For variable 4, update it to the difference between the measurement result when the current measurement reporting event is met and the measurement result when the most recent measurement reporting event is met;

[0628] For variable 5, update it to the difference between the number of beams that meet the event when the current measurement reporting event is met and the number of beams that meet the event when the most recent measurement reporting event is met;

[0629] For variable 6, add the measurement result when the measurement reporting event is met to variable 6;

[0630] For variable 7, add the number of beams that meet the event when the measurement reporting event is met to variable 7.

[0631] Step 3-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 3-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0632] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0642] The measurement results include one or more of the following:

[0643] Cell-level measurement results;

[0644] Beam-level measurement results;

[0645] Beam identification;

[0646] Cell ID.

[0647] Example 4: The UE performs a single report according to the measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0648] Step 4-1: The network side sends an RRC reconfiguration message, which carries the configuration related to the event-triggered L1 measurement (measurement object (which can be cell or beam level), measurement reporting event associated with the measurement object, measurement evaluation criteria, etc.).

[0649] Optionally, in step 4-1, the network may further configure first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information to the UE.

[0650] The first measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0652] Instructs the UE to perform a measurement report after the measurement report prohibition timer expires.

[0653] The second measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0656] Indicates whether the measurement results reported by the UE include the measurement results of neighboring cells;

[0657] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of cells to be reported when performing measurement reporting;

[0658] Instructing the UE to report the maximum number of measurement results Y when performing measurement reporting; further, the network will indicate whether this is the maximum number of measurement results reported for this report, or the maximum number of measurement results reported for each reporting cell;

[0659] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of beams, Z, when performing measurement reporting. Furthermore, the network indicates whether this is the maximum number of beams reported for this report, or the maximum number of beams reported for each reporting cell.

[0661] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggered this measurement reporting when performing measurement reporting;

[0663] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam that meets the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0664] Instructs the UE to report the index of the beam that does not meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0665] Instruct the UE to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0666] Step 4-2: The UE performs L1 measurement and evaluation based on the event-triggered L1 measurement configuration information provided by the network side.

[0667] Afterwards, the UE performs any of the following operations (1) and (2):

[0668] (1): When the measurement report prohibition timer times out, the measurement report is triggered.

[0669] Specifically:

[0670] Perform steps 4-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0671] Step 4-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time, the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0672] Step 4-3-2: Whenever the measurement report prohibition timer expires, the UE triggers a measurement report.

[0673] Step 4-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 4-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0674] And, for each measurement reporting event that triggers measurement reporting, the UE starts or restarts its corresponding measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0675] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side.

[0691] Perform steps 4-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0692] Step 4-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time (ie, because the measurement reporting event is satisfied and no measurement reporting has been triggered before), the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0693] Step 4-3-2: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, but the measurement reporting event is not triggered for the first time, and the measurement reporting has been triggered and performed before due to the satisfaction of the measurement reporting event, the UE performs the following operations:

[0694] The UE determines whether its associated measurement report prohibition timer has timed out. If so, the UE triggers a measurement report; if not, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0695] Step 4-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 4-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0696] And, for each measurement reporting event that triggers measurement reporting, the UE starts or restarts its corresponding measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0697] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side.

[0727] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of beams, Z, when performing measurement reporting. Furthermore, the network indicates whether this is the maximum number of beams reported for this report, or the maximum number of beams reported for each reporting cell.

[0734] Step 5-2: The UE performs L1 measurement and evaluation based on the event-triggered L1 measurement configuration information provided by the network side.

[0735] Optionally, the UE maintains a UE variable or an element in a UE variable for each measurement reporting event. The UE variable is at least one of the following:

[0736] The absolute time variable (hereinafter referred to as variable 1) of the measurement reporting triggered by the measurement reporting event (optionally, a list is maintained for each measurement reporting event);

[0737] The UE variable is used to record the number of measurement reports triggered by the measurement reporting event (hereinafter referred to as variable 2);

[0738] The UE variable is used to record a time difference variable (hereinafter referred to as variable 3) between the measurement reporting event and the most recent measurement reporting event that meets and triggers the measurement reporting.

[0739] The UE will initialize the above UE variables respectively, for example, initializing the above variables 1 / 2 / 3 to 0. The initialization operation will be performed once each time the measurement reporting prohibition timer expires.

[0740] Afterwards, the UE performs any of the following operations (1) and (2):

[0741] (1): When a measurement reporting event is met, multiple periodic reports are triggered, and subsequent measurement reports do not need to be performed when the measurement reporting event is met.

[0742] Specifically:

[0743] Perform steps 5-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0744] Step 5-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is met, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time after the measurement reporting prohibition timer expires or the measurement reporting prohibition timer is not turned on, the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0745] The determination that the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time may depend on UE implementation judgment, or may be determined based on the variable value being 0 in the corresponding UE variable.

[0746] Step 5-3-2: At each interval of the reporting cycle configured by the network side (without determining whether the measurement reporting event is satisfied), the UE performs the following operations:

[0747] The UE determines whether the number of reports exceeds the maximum number of reports configured on the network side:

[0748] If the maximum number of reports configured on the network side is exceeded, the UE:

[0749] No measurement report is triggered, and optionally, measurement evaluation for the event is stopped, or even if a subsequent measurement evaluation for the event finds that the condition is met, no measurement report is initiated for the event of the measurement evaluation;

[0750] Start or restart the associated measurement reporting prohibit timer.

[0751] If the maximum reporting times configured by the network side is not exceeded, the UE triggers a measurement report (without the need for the measurement reporting event to be satisfied).

[0752] Step 5-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 5-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0753] And, optionally, for each measurement reporting event that triggers measurement reporting, if it is the first time that measurement reporting is triggered (ie, the first time after receiving the configuration), the UE starts its corresponding measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0754] Optionally, each time the UE performs a measurement report, for each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement report, the UE updates the corresponding UE variable, and the specific operations include at least one of the following:

[0755] If variable 1 contains a list, add a new element to the list of variable 1, where the new element is the time reported for this measurement;

[0756] If variable 1 contains a numerical value, the value in variable 1 is updated to the time reported by this measurement;

[0757] For variable 2, add 1 to it;

[0758] For variable 3, it is updated to the time difference between the current measurement report and the measurement report caused by the most recent measurement report event (when the report is triggered for the first time, the time difference is 0).

[0759] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0777] Step 5-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is met, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time after the measurement reporting prohibition timer expires or the measurement reporting prohibition timer is not turned on, the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0778] Step 5-3-2: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, but the measurement reporting event is not triggered for the first time, and the measurement reporting has been triggered and performed before due to the satisfaction of the measurement reporting event, the UE performs the following operations:

[0779] The UE determines whether the time difference between the current triggering time and the most recent measurement reporting time due to the measurement reporting event being met is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side:

[0780] If the value is greater than the reporting period configured by the network, the UE further determines whether the number of reports triggered by the measurement reporting event is greater than the maximum number of reports configured by the network. If so, no measurement report is triggered, and optionally, the corresponding measurement report prohibition timer is started or restarted. If not, a measurement report is triggered.

[0781] If it is not greater than the reporting period configured on the network side, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0782] Among them, the "UE determines whether the time difference between the time of this trigger and the time of the most recent measurement report due to the satisfaction of the measurement reporting event is greater than the reporting period configured on the network side" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine whether the corresponding UE variable 3 is greater than the reporting period, and / or subtract the time of the most recent measurement report triggering time in the corresponding UE variable 1 from the time when the current measurement reporting event is satisfied, and then determine whether the difference is greater than the reporting period.

[0783] Among them, the "UE determines whether the number of reports triggered by the measurement reporting event is greater than the maximum number of reports configured on the network side" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine the size between the value of the corresponding UE variable 2 and the maximum number of reports configured on the network side.

[0784] Step 5-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 5-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0785] And, optionally, for each measurement reporting event that triggers measurement reporting, if it is the first time that measurement reporting is triggered (ie, the first time after receiving the configuration), the UE starts its corresponding measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0786] Optionally, each time the UE performs a measurement report, for each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement report, the UE updates the corresponding UE variable, and the specific operations include at least one of the following:

[0788] If variable 1 contains a numerical value, the value in variable 1 is updated to the time reported by this measurement;

[0789] For variable 2, add 1 to it;

[0790] For variable 3, it is updated to the time difference between the current measurement report and the measurement report caused by the most recent measurement report event (when the report is triggered for the first time, the time difference is 0).

[0791] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0806] Example 6: The UE triggers reporting based on corresponding reporting conditions according to the measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0807] Step 6-1: The network side sends an RRC reconfiguration message, which carries the configuration related to the event-triggered L1 measurement (measurement object (which can be cell or beam level), measurement reporting event associated with the measurement object, measurement evaluation criteria, etc.).

[0808] Optionally, in step 6-1, the network may further configure first measurement reporting configuration information and / or second measurement reporting configuration information to the UE.

[0809] The first measurement reporting configuration information carries at least one of the following:

[0820] Instructs the UE to report the maximum number of beams, Z, when performing measurement reporting. Furthermore, the network indicates whether this is the maximum number of beams reported for this report, or the maximum number of beams reported for each reporting cell.

[0821] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that is met this time when performing measurement reporting;

[0822] Instructs the UE whether to report only the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that triggered this measurement reporting when performing measurement reporting;

[0823] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0824] Instructs the UE to report only the index of the beam that meets the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0825] Instructs the UE to report the index of the beam that does not meet the event, without reporting the measurement result;

[0826] Instruct the UE to report the index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality when the beam with the best signal quality changes.

[0827] Step 6-2: The UE performs L1 measurement and evaluation based on the event-triggered L1 measurement configuration information provided by the network side.

[0828] Optionally, the UE maintains a UE variable or an element in a UE variable for each measurement reporting event. The UE variable is at least one of the following:

[0829] The change in the measurement result at the time of this event triggering compared to the measurement result at the time of the previous event triggering (can be per cell or per beam) (variable 4);

[0830] The change in the number of beams that satisfy the event when this event is triggered compared to the number of beams that satisfy the event when the previous event is triggered (variable 5);

[0831] The measurement result when this event is triggered (variable 6);

[0832] The number of beams that meet the event when this event is triggered (variable 7).

[0833] The UE will initialize the above UE variables respectively, for example, initializing the above variables 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 to 0. The initialization operation will be performed once each time the measurement reporting prohibition timer expires.

[0834] Specifically:

[0835] Perform steps 6-3 for each measurement reporting event:

[0836] Step 6-3-1: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is met, and the measurement reporting event is triggered for the first time after the measurement reporting prohibition timer expires or when the measurement reporting prohibition timer is not enabled, the UE determines to trigger a measurement report.

[0837] Step 6-3-2: If the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, but the measurement reporting event is not triggered for the first time, and the measurement reporting prohibition timer expires, the UE performs one of the following operations:

[0838] Operation 1:

[0839] The UE determines whether the change in the measurement result corresponding to the current measurement reporting event compared to the measurement result at the last event triggering (which can be per cell or per beam) exceeds a threshold pre-configured by the network. The measurement result can be the top N best measurement results.

[0840] If the threshold pre-configured by the network is exceeded, the UE triggers a measurement report.

[0841] If the value does not exceed the threshold pre-configured by the network, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0842] Operation 2: (For per-cell measurement reporting event configuration)

[0843] The UE determines whether a change in the number of beams that satisfy the event when this event is triggered compared to the number of beams that satisfy the event when the last event is triggered is greater than a threshold preconfigured by the network.

[0844] If the threshold pre-configured by the network is exceeded, the UE triggers a measurement report.

[0845] If the value does not exceed the threshold pre-configured by the network, the UE does not trigger a measurement report.

[0846] Among them, the "UE determines whether the change in the measurement result corresponding to when the current measurement reporting event is satisfied compared to the measurement result when the last event is triggered (which can be per cell, per beam) exceeds the network pre-configured threshold" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine the size between the variable 4 and the network pre-configured threshold, and / or subtract the corresponding measurement result recorded in the variable 6 from the measurement result corresponding to when the current measurement reporting event is satisfied, and determine the size between the obtained difference and the network pre-configured threshold.

[0847] Among them, the "UE determines whether the change in the number of beams that meet the event when this event is triggered is greater than the network pre-configured threshold compared to the number of beams that meet the event when the last event is triggered" may depend on the UE implementation, and / or determine the size between the variable 5 and the network pre-configured threshold, and / or subtract the corresponding number of beams that meet the threshold recorded in the variable 7 from the corresponding number of beams that meet the threshold when the measurement reporting event is met, and determine the size between the obtained difference and the network pre-configured threshold.

[0848] Step 6-3-3: Optionally, each time the UE evaluates and finds that the measurement reporting event is satisfied, the UE updates the corresponding UE variable for each measurement reporting event that triggers this measurement reporting. The specific operations include at least one of the following:

[0849] For variable 4, update it to the difference between the measurement result when the current measurement reporting event is met and the measurement result when the most recent measurement reporting event is met;

[0850] For variable 5, update it to the difference between the number of beams that meet the event when the current measurement reporting event is met and the number of beams that meet the event when the most recent measurement reporting event is met;

[0851] For variable 6, add the measurement result when the measurement reporting event is met to variable 6;

[0852] For variable 7, add the number of beams that meet the event when the measurement reporting event is met to variable 7.

[0853] Step 6-4: If measurement reporting is triggered in the above step 6-3 (due to evaluation of multiple measurement reporting events, there may be multiple measurement reports triggered simultaneously), the UE performs a measurement reporting operation.

[0854] And, optionally, for each measurement reporting event that triggers measurement reporting, the UE starts the corresponding measurement reporting prohibition timer.

[0855] Optionally, the measurement result carried in the measurement report initiated by the UE is determined according to the second measurement report configuration information configured by the network side. Specifically, the measurement result carried in the measurement report is at least one of the following:

[0856] The latest measurement results of the cell / beam corresponding to the measurement reporting event that has reported the measurement results to the network due to event triggering;

[0857] Only the measurement results of the current serving cell are included; optionally, the number of the measurement results is ≤ Y;

[0858] Only measurement results of neighboring cells are included; optionally, the number of measurement results is ≤ Y; optionally, the number of measurement results is ≤ X*Y; optionally, the number of included neighboring cells is ≤ X;

[0860] Only includes the measurement results corresponding to the measurement reporting event that caused the current measurement reporting to be triggered;

[0861] Only the index of the beam with the best signal quality among the beams that satisfy the event is included;

[0862] Contains only the indices of beams that satisfy the event;

[0863] The index of the beam that does not satisfy the event;

[0864] The index of the beam with the best signal quality and / or the measurement result of the beam with the best signal quality.

[0865] The measurement results include one or more of the following:

[0868] Beam identification;

[0869] Cell ID.
