Description

Information reporting, information receiving, data communication methods, devices, equipment and media Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and more specifically, to a method, apparatus, device, and medium for information reporting, information receiving, and data communication. Background Technology

[0002] Under the existing terrestrial network connectivity, the network can configure SSB index derivation signaling for terminals, such as deriveSSB-IndexFromCell and deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17. The truth parameters in the SSB (Synchromization Signal and PBCH Block) index derivation signaling are related to the terminal's data measurement of the cell, the terminal's data transmission and reception, and network scheduling.

[0003] In related technologies, the true value parameter is configured according to the frequency point. In the ATG (Air to Ground) network, considering all co-frequency neighboring cells / different-frequency neighboring cells on a certain frequency point, this parameter is generally configured to false. As a result, the terminal cannot transmit data during the entire SMTC (SSB Measurement Timing Configuration) time, and the terminal with the directional antenna cannot transmit or receive data, resulting in a loss of throughput.

[0059] In a ninth aspect, embodiments of this disclosure also provide a computer program product, including a computer program / instructions that, when executed by a processor, implement the steps in any of the possible implementations of the first to third aspects.

[0060] This disclosure provides an information reporting, information receiving, and data communication method, apparatus, device, and medium. In this disclosure, the effectiveness conditions of SSB index derivation indication signaling can be determined, thereby determining the acquisition method of a terminal (e.g., a first type of terminal) for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index based on a first determination result.

[0061] As described above, existing technologies use frequency points to set the truth parameters in SSB index derivation signaling. This may result in the terminal being unable to send data during the entire SMTC period if the measured cell contains co-located cells, thus causing a loss of throughput. Therefore, this disclosed technical solution can determine whether the measured cell contains co-located or non-co-located cells through a determination result (first determination result and second determination result), thereby determining the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling based on the co-location status of the measured cell, and further determining the method for the terminal to obtain the neighboring cell SSB index. Compared to the existing technology's method of setting the truth parameters in SSB index derivation signaling using frequency points, this disclosed technical solution can achieve a reasonable setting of the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, thereby improving the overall system throughput.

[0071] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. The components of the embodiments of this disclosure described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this disclosure provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed disclosure, but merely represents selected embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0072] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0073] In this document, the term "and / or" merely describes a relationship, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent three cases: A alone, A and B simultaneously, and B alone. Furthermore, the term "at least one" in this document means any combination of at least two of any one or more elements. For example, including at least one of A, B, and C can mean including any one or more elements selected from the set consisting of A, B, and C.

[0074] Research has revealed that, under existing terrestrial network connectivity, the network can configure SSB index derivation signaling for terminals, specifically `deriveSSB-IndexFromCell` and `deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17`. The truth parameters in this SSB index derivation signaling are related to the terminal's data measurement of the cell, the terminal's data transmission and reception, and network scheduling.

[0075] In related technologies, the truth parameter is configured according to the frequency point. In the ATG network, considering all co-frequency neighboring cells / different-frequency neighboring cells on a certain frequency point, this parameter is generally configured to false. As a result, the terminal cannot transmit data during the entire SMTC (SSB Measurement Timing Configuration) period, and the terminal with the directional antenna cannot transmit or receive data, resulting in a loss of throughput.

[0076] Based on the above research, this disclosure provides a method, apparatus, device, and medium for information reporting, information receiving, and data communication. In embodiments of this disclosure, the effectiveness conditions of the SSB index derivation indication signaling can be determined, thereby determining the acquisition method of the terminal (e.g., a first type of terminal) for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index based on the first determination result of the effectiveness determination; in addition, the measurement cells of the terminal within each SMTC period can be determined through the measurement timing relationship synchronized with the network side to obtain a second determination result, thereby determining the acquisition method of the terminal for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index based on the second determination result.

[0077] As described above, existing technologies use frequency points to set the truth parameters in SSB index derivation signaling. This may result in the terminal being unable to send data during the entire SMTC period if the measured cell contains co-located cells, thus causing a loss of throughput. Therefore, this disclosed technical solution can determine whether the measured cell contains co-located or non-co-located cells through a determination result (first determination result and second determination result), thereby determining the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling based on the co-location status of the measured cell, and further determining the method for the terminal to obtain the neighboring cell SSB index. Compared to the existing technology's method of setting the truth parameters in SSB index derivation signaling using frequency points, this disclosed technical solution can achieve a reasonable setting of the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, thereby improving the overall system throughput.

[0078] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a detailed description of the information reporting method disclosed in this disclosure will be provided first. The execution subject of the information reporting method provided in this disclosure is generally an electronic device with a certain computing capability. In some possible implementations, this information reporting method can be implemented by a processor calling computer-readable instructions stored in memory.

[0079] Referring to Figure 1, a flowchart of an information reporting method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown. This method is applied to a first type of terminal and includes steps S101 to S103, wherein:

[0080] S101: The effective condition for receiving SSB index derivation indication signaling sent by the network side.

[0081] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the network side can send an activation condition for the SSB index deduction indication signaling to the first type of terminal. For example, the activation condition is: condderiveSSB-IndexFromCell-r19. This activation condition can be used to determine whether the SSB index deduction indication signaling is effective. A true truth parameter in the SSB index deduction indication signaling indicates that it is effective, while a false truth parameter indicates that it is not effective.

[0082] Here, the first type of terminal can be an omnidirectional antenna terminal. In addition, it can also be other types of terminals, such as terminals with the same communication method as omnidirectional antenna terminals. The model of the first type of terminal is not specifically limited here, as long as it can be implemented.

[0083] S102: Determine whether the effective condition is effective, and obtain the first determination result.

[0084] Here, the network side can determine whether the effective conditions of the SSB index derivation instruction signaling are effective, thereby obtaining the first determination result. For example, it can obtain the first determination result that the effective conditions are effective, or obtain the first determination result that the effective conditions are not effective.

[0085] The effective condition being effective can be understood as the measurement cells of the first type of terminal including both serving cells and co-located cells, while the ineffective condition being ineffective can be understood as the measurement cells of the first type of terminal including both serving cells and non-co-located cells. In other words, the first determination result can determine whether the measurement cells of the first type of terminal include either co-located cells or non-co-located cells.

[0086] Therefore, in this embodiment of the disclosure, if the determination condition is effective, the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to true; at this time, it can be determined that the measurement cells of the first type of terminal include both serving cells and co-located cells. If the determination condition is not effective, the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to false; at this time, it can be determined that the measurement cells of the first type of terminal include both serving cells and non-co-located cells.

[0087] S103: Based on the first determination result, determine the acquisition method of the first type of terminal to obtain the neighbor cell SSB index, and if it is determined based on the first determination result that the effective condition is not effective, report the first message to the network side.

[0088] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the methods for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index differ depending on whether the effective condition is in effect or not. That is, the methods for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index differ depending on whether the measurement cell contains co-located cells or non-co-located cells.

[0089] For example, if the effective condition is determined to be effective based on the first determination result, the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to true; that is, the measurement cell of the first type of terminal includes the serving cell and the co-site cell. In this case, it can be determined that the method for the first type of terminal to obtain the neighboring cell SSB index is method 1.

[0090] For example, if the effectiveness condition is determined to be effective based on the first determination result, the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to false; that is, the measurement cells of the first type of terminal include the serving cell and non-co-site cells. In this case, it can be determined that the first type of terminal obtains the neighboring cell SSB index in mode 2. At this time, the first type of terminal needs to report a first message to the network side. The network side can determine whether the method for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index is mode 1 or mode 2 through this first message.

[0091] As described above, existing technologies use frequency points to set the truth parameters in SSB index derivation signaling, thereby determining the method by which the terminal obtains the neighboring cell's SSB index. For example, if the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation signaling is true, it means that the neighboring cell's SSB index is derived from the serving cell's SSB index; if the truth parameter is false, it means that the neighboring cell's SSB index is obtained through measurement. This processing method will result in the terminal being unable to send data during the entire SMTC time period when the measurement cell includes co-located cells, thus causing a loss of throughput.

[0092] Based on this, the present technical solution determines the acquisition method of the neighbor cell SSB index for a first type of terminal by determining the effectiveness determination result of the effectiveness condition (first determination result). This method can determine the SSB index acquisition method by determining whether the measurement cell contains co-located or non-co-located cells, thereby determining the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling based on the co-location situation of the measurement cell, and ultimately determining the acquisition method of the terminal for the neighbor cell SSB index. Compared to the existing technology that uses frequency points to set the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, the present technical solution can achieve reasonable setting of the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, thereby improving the overall system throughput.

[0093] In this embodiment of the disclosure, step S102, which determines whether the effective condition is effective and obtains a first determination result, specifically includes the following steps:

[0094] Step S11: If the effective condition is determined to be a measurement result reporting event, determine whether the measurement result reporting event is met, and obtain the determination result;

[0095] Step S12: Determine whether the effective condition is effective based on the determination result to obtain the first determination result; wherein, if the determination result determines that the measurement result reporting event is met, a first determination result indicating that the effective condition is not effective is obtained; if the determination result determines that the measurement result reporting event is not met, a first determination result indicating that the effective condition is effective is obtained.

[0096] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the effective condition can be a measurement result reporting event, wherein the available events include: Event A1, Event A2, Event I1, and Event D1.

[0097] Event A1 can be: Serving becomes better than threshold; Event A2 can be: Serving becomes worse than threshold; Event I1 can be: Interference becomes higher than threshold; Event D1 can be: Distance between UE and referenceLocation1 is above threshold1 and distance between UE and referenceLocation2 is below threshold2.

[0098] In this case, it can be determined whether the measurement result reporting event is satisfied, thus obtaining a definite result. For example, the measurement result reporting event is Event A2, which includes:

[0099] RSRP threshold: 3dB;

[0100] reportOnLeave false;

[0101] Hysteresis value: 0 dB;

[0102] Activation time: timeToTrigger 0.

[0103] At this point, the first type of terminal performs serving cell measurements. If the RSRP measurement result is 5dB (5dB > 3dB + 0dB), a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is not met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first determination result for the effective condition is that the effective condition is effective. If the RSRP measurement result is 1dB (1dB < 3dB + 0dB), a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first determination result for the effective condition is that the effective condition is not effective.

[0104] In other words, when the measurement result reporting event is determined to be met, the SSB index derivation indication signaling `deriveSSB-IndexFromCell` is set to false and / or the `deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17` configuration is disabled. In this case, the first type of terminal needs to report a first message to the network side. This first message can notify the network side of the method for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index, or it can notify the network side that the first type of terminal's measurement cell contains non-co-located neighboring cells. When the measurement result reporting event is determined not to be met, the SSB index derivation indication signaling `deriveSSB-IndexFromCell` is set to true and / or the `deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17` configuration is enabled. In this case, the first type of terminal does not report a first message to the network side. At this time, the network side can determine the acquisition method of the first type of terminal to obtain the neighbor cell SSB index based on the first type of terminal's reporting of the first message, that is, determine that the measurement cell of the first type of terminal only includes the serving cell and co-located neighbor cells.

[0105] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the above step of reporting the first message to the network side specifically includes the following steps:

[0106] If the effective condition is determined to be a measurement result reporting event, a measurement report corresponding to the measurement result reporting event is reported to the network side.

[0107] In this embodiment of the disclosure, when the effective condition is the measurement result reporting event Event A1, Event A2, Event I1, Event D1, the first message reported by the first type of terminal to the network side can be a measurement report.

[0108] After receiving the measurement report, the network side can determine that the measurement cell of the first type of terminal includes non-co-located neighbor cells; if the network side does not receive the measurement report, it can determine that the measurement cell of the first type of terminal only includes the serving cell and co-located neighbor cells.

[0109] In an optional implementation, the above steps determine the acquisition method of the neighboring cell SSB index for the first type of terminal based on the first determination result, specifically including the following two cases:

[0110] Scenario 1:

[0111] If the effective condition is determined to be effective based on the first determination result, the method for obtaining the neighbor cell SSB index for the first type of terminal is to derive the neighbor cell SSB index by means of the SSB index of the serving cell.

[0112] Scenario 2:

[0113] If the effective condition is determined not to be effective based on the first determination result, the method for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index by the first type of terminal is determined to be obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index by measuring the neighboring cell SSB.

[0114] If the activation condition is a measurement result reporting event, then if the activation condition is determined to be in effect through the first determination result, it can be determined that the measurement result reporting event is not met. In this case, it can be determined that the first type of terminal obtains the neighboring cell SSB index by deducing it from the serving cell's SSB index.

[0115] Continuing the previous example, if the RSRP measurement result of the first type of terminal is 5dB (5dB > 3dB + 0dB), a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is not met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first judgment result for determining the effective condition is that the effective condition is in effect. In this case, the first type of terminal does not send a measurement report to the network side, and when performing measurements, it no longer needs to read the neighboring cell's SSB-index (i.e., SSB index), as the neighboring cell's SSB index can be derived from the serving cell's SSB index.

[0116] If the RSRP measurement result is 1dB, where 1dB < 3dB + 0dB, then a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first judgment result for determining the effective condition is that the effective condition has not taken effect. At this time, the first type of terminal sends a measurement report to the network side, and when performing the measurement, the first type of terminal needs to read the neighboring cell's SSB-index (i.e., the SSB index).

[0117] In this embodiment of the disclosure, when the method for determining the SSB index of the neighboring cell for the first type of terminal is to derive the SSB index of the neighboring cell through the SSB index of the serving cell, communication data transmission is stopped within the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol in the SMTC window, and communication data transmission is stopped within the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol; wherein, the target SSB symbol is the time period for measuring the serving cell in the SMTC window.

[0118] As described above, when the first determination result indicates that the effective condition is in effect, it can be determined that the method by which the first type of terminal obtains the neighboring cell SSB index is to derive the neighboring cell SSB index from the serving cell's SSB index. At this time, within the SMTC window, during the time period of the serving cell SSB symbol to be tested (i.e., the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol) and the time period of the preceding and following data symbols (i.e., the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol), the first type of terminal (e.g., an omnidirectional antenna terminal) cannot transmit communication data within the SMTC window. The communication data may include the following data: PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel), and SRS (Sounding Reference Signal).

[0119] Continuing the previous example, if the RSRP measurement result of the first type of terminal is 5dB (5dB > 3dB + 0dB), a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is not met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first judgment result for determining the effective condition is that the effective condition is in effect. At this time, the first type of terminal does not send a measurement report to the network side, and when performing measurements, it no longer needs to read the neighboring cell's SSB-index (i.e., SSB index). The neighboring cell's SSB index can be derived from the serving cell's SSB index. During this time, no communication data is sent within the time period of the serving cell SSB symbol to be measured within the SMTC window, and within the time period of the preceding and following data symbols (i.e., the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol and the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol).

[0120] In this embodiment of the disclosure, if the method for obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index by the first type of terminal is determined to be obtaining the neighboring cell SSB index by measuring the neighboring cell SSB, then the transmission of communication data is stopped within the SMTC window.

[0121] As described above, if the first determination result indicates that the effective condition is ineffective, it can be determined that the first type of terminal obtains the neighboring cell SSB index by measuring the neighboring cell SSB index. At this time, the first type of terminal (e.g., an omnidirectional antenna terminal) cannot transmit communication data within the SMTC window. The communication data may include the following: PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel), and SRS (Sounding Reference Signal).

[0122] Continuing the previous example, if the RSRP measurement result is 1dB (1dB < 3dB + 0dB), then a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first judgment result for determining the effective condition is that the effective condition has not taken effect. At this time, the first type of terminal sends a measurement report to the network side, and when performing measurements, the first type of terminal needs to read the neighboring cell's SSB-index (i.e., the SSB index). At this time, the omnidirectional antenna terminal cannot send communication data within the SMTC window.

[0123] As described above, the technical solution disclosed herein can set the truth data of SSB index derivation instruction signaling deriveSSB-IndexFromCell and deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17 by distinguishing whether the measurement cell of the terminal includes co-site cells or non-co-site cells. This truth data can then be used to define the behavior of the terminal and the network, thereby improving the overall throughput of the system.

[0124] Referring to Figure 2, which is a flowchart of an information receiving method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, the method is applied to the network side and includes steps S201 to S202, wherein:

[0125] S201: The effective conditions for issuing the SSB index derivation instruction signaling to the first type of terminal.

[0126] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the network side can send an activation condition for the SSB index deduction indication signaling to the first type of terminal. For example, the activation condition is: condderiveSSB-IndexFromCell-r19. This activation condition can be used to determine whether the SSB index deduction indication signaling is effective. A true truth parameter in the SSB index deduction indication signaling indicates that it is effective, while a false truth parameter indicates that it is not effective.

[0127] Here, the first type of terminal can be an omnidirectional antenna terminal. In addition, it can also be other types of terminals, such as terminals with the same communication method as omnidirectional antenna terminals. The model of the first type of terminal is not specifically limited here, as long as it can be implemented.

[0128] S202: Receive a first message reported by a first type of terminal and obtain a reception result of the first message; wherein, if the first type of terminal determines that the effective condition is not effective based on a first determination result, the first type of terminal sends the first message to the network side, and the first determination result is used to indicate whether the effective condition is effective.

[0129] In this embodiment, after receiving the effective condition of the SSB index derivation indication signaling, the first type of terminal can determine whether the effective condition is effective and obtain a first determination result; wherein, the specific process of determining whether the effective condition is effective is as described in the above embodiment, and will not be described in detail here. The first determination result can determine whether the measurement cell of the first type of terminal includes co-located cells or non-co-located cells.

[0130] After obtaining the first determination result, the acquisition method of the first type of terminal to obtain the neighbor cell SSB index can be determined based on the first determination result, and if it is determined based on the first determination result that the effective condition is not effective, the first message is reported to the network side.

[0131] If the effectiveness condition is determined to be effective based on the first determination result, the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to false; that is, the measurement cell of the first type of terminal includes the serving cell and non-co-site cells. In this case, it can be determined that the first type of terminal obtains the neighbor cell SSB index in mode 2. At this time, the first type of terminal needs to report a first message to the network side. The network side can determine whether the method of obtaining the neighbor cell SSB index is mode 1 or mode 2 as described in the above embodiment through this first message.

[0132] As described above, the technical solution disclosed herein can set the truth data of SSB index derivation instruction signaling deriveSSB-IndexFromCell and deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17 by distinguishing whether the measurement cell of the terminal includes co-site cells or non-co-site cells. This truth data can then be used to define the behavior of the terminal and the network, thereby improving the overall throughput of the system.

[0133] In this embodiment of the disclosure, after issuing the effective conditions of the SSB index derivation indication signaling to the first type of terminal, the method further includes: determining the uplink data scheduling method based on the reception result of the first message.

[0134] Here, the reception result of the first message is used to indicate whether the network side has successfully received the first message reported by the first type of terminal. Specifically, if the network side does not receive the first message reported by the first type of terminal, the reception result of the first message is "not received"; if the network side receives the first message reported by the first type of terminal, the reception result of the first message is "received".

[0135] At this point, the network side can determine the uplink data scheduling method based on the reception result of the first message. The uplink data scheduling method will differ depending on the reception result of the first message.

[0136] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the uplink data scheduling method is determined based on the received measurement report, specifically including the following two cases:

[0137] Scenario 1:

[0138] After receiving the first message reported by the first type of terminal, the scheduling mode for uplink data scheduling is determined to be the first scheduling mode; wherein, the first scheduling mode is used to indicate that uplink data scheduling is not performed within the SMTC window.

[0139] In this embodiment of the disclosure, if the first type of terminal determines that the effective condition has not taken effect, it reports a first message (e.g., a measurement report) to the network side. After receiving the first message reported by the first type of terminal, the network side does not schedule uplink data within the SMTC window.

[0140] Scenario 2:

[0141] If no first message is received from the first type of terminal, the uplink data scheduling mode is determined to be the second scheduling mode; wherein, the second scheduling mode is used to indicate that no uplink data scheduling is performed within the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol in the SMTC window and within the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol.

[0142] In this embodiment of the disclosure, if the first type of terminal determines that the activation condition is effective, it will not report the first message (e.g., a measurement report) to the network side. At this time, if the network side determines that it has not received the measurement report (true) reported by the first type of terminal, it can not perform uplink data scheduling within the time period of the serving cell SSB symbol to be tested (the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol) and the time period of the preceding and following data symbols (the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol) within the SMTC window.

[0143] This disclosed technical solution determines the acquisition method of the neighbor cell SSB index for a first type of terminal through the effectiveness determination result of the effectiveness condition (first determination result). It can determine the SSB index acquisition method by determining whether the measurement cell contains co-located or non-co-located cells, thereby determining the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling based on the co-location situation of the measurement cell, and ultimately determining the acquisition method of the terminal for the neighbor cell SSB index. Compared to the existing technology that uses frequency points to set the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, this disclosed technical solution can achieve reasonable setting of the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, thereby improving the overall system throughput.

[0144] The above process will be described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0145] First, the first type of terminal reports its terminal capabilities to the network side. The type of the first type of terminal can be determined by these terminal capabilities. For example, if the first type of terminal does not report antennaArrayType-r18 among its reported terminal capabilities, then it can be determined that the first type of terminal is an omnidirectional antenna terminal.

[0146] Next, the network side can send the effective conditions of the SSB index derivation indication signaling to the omnidirectional antenna terminal. These effective conditions can be described as follows:

[0147] RSRP threshold: 3dB;

[0148] reportOnLeave false;

[0149] Hysteresis value: 0 dB;

[0150] Activation time: timeToTrigger 0.

[0151] At this time, the omnidirectional terminal performs serving cell measurements. If the RSRP measurement result is 5dB, and 5dB > 3dB + 0dB, a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is not met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first judgment result for the effective condition can be determined as the effective condition taking effect. At this time, the omnidirectional antenna terminal does not send a measurement report to the network side. Furthermore, when the omnidirectional antenna terminal performs measurements, it no longer needs to read the neighboring cell's SSB-index (i.e., SSB index), as the neighboring cell's SSB index can be derived from the serving cell's SSB index. Within the SMTC window, no communication data is transmitted during the time period of the serving cell's SSB symbol and the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol and the adjacent number of SSB symbols. If the network side determines that it has not received a measurement report (true) from the first type of terminal, then no uplink data scheduling will be performed within the time period of the serving cell SSB symbol to be tested (the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol) and the time period of the preceding and following data symbols (the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol) within the SMTC window.

[0152] If the RSRP measurement result is 1dB, where 1dB < 3dB + 0dB, a determination result indicating that the measurement result reporting event is met can be obtained. Based on this determination result, the first judgment result for determining the effective condition is that the effective condition has not taken effect. The first type of terminal feeds back the measurement report to the network side, and when performing measurements, the first type of terminal needs to read the neighboring cell's SSB-index (i.e., the SSB index). Omnidirectional antenna terminals cannot send communication data within the SMTC window. After receiving the first message reported by the first type of terminal, the network side can choose not to schedule uplink data within the SMTC window.

[0153] Referring to Figure 3, which is a flowchart of a data communication method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, the method is applied to a second type of terminal, and the method includes steps S301 to S303, wherein:

[0154] S301: Synchronize measurement timing relationship with network side; wherein, the measurement timing relationship is used to indicate the SMTC window of the second type of terminal measuring the serving cell and co-located neighboring cells, and the SMTC window of the second type of terminal measuring non-co-located neighboring cells.

[0155] Here, the second type of terminal can be a directional antenna terminal. In addition, it can also be other types of terminals, such as terminals with the same communication method as directional antenna terminals. The model of the second type of terminal is not specifically limited here, as long as it can be implemented.

[0156] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the second type of terminal can pre-synchronize the measurement timing relationship with the network side. By synchronizing the measurement timing relationship, the measurement cells of the second type of terminal in various time periods can be synchronized between the network side and the second type of terminal.

[0157] Here, the network side can take the lead in synchronously measuring timing relationships with the second type of terminal, or the second type of terminal can take the lead in synchronously measuring timing relationships with the network side.

[0158] S302: Based on the measurement timing relationship, determine the measurement cells of the second type of terminal in each SMTC cycle to obtain a second determination result.

[0159] Since the measurement timing relationship can indicate the SMTC window for the second type of terminal to measure the serving cell and co-located neighbor cells, as well as the SMTC window for the second type of terminal to measure non-co-located neighbor cells, the measurement cell of the directional antenna terminal in each SMTC cycle can be determined based on the measurement timing relationship, thereby obtaining a second determination result. Through the second determination result, it can be determined whether the measurement cell of the second type of terminal contains a co-located cell (i.e., a co-located neighbor cell) or a non-co-located cell (i.e., a non-co-located neighbor cell).

[0160] S303: Based on the second determination result, determine the acquisition method of the neighbor cell SSB index of the second type of terminal, and determine the method of sending and receiving communication data based on the measurement timing relationship.

[0161] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the methods for obtaining the neighbor cell SSB index are different for different second determination results. That is, the methods for obtaining the neighbor cell SSB index are different for a measurement cell containing co-located neighbor cells and a measurement cell containing non-co-located neighbor cells.

[0162] For example, if the second determination result determines that the measured cell of the second type of terminal includes both a serving cell and co-located neighboring cells, then the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to true. In this case, the acquisition method of the neighboring cell SSB index by the first type of terminal can be determined as method 1. If the second determination result determines that the measured cell of the second type of terminal includes both a serving cell and non-co-located neighboring cells, then the truth parameter in the SSB index derivation indication signaling should be set to false. In this case, the acquisition method of the neighboring cell SSB index by the first type of terminal can be determined as method 2.

[0163] This disclosed technical solution determines the acquisition method of the neighbor cell SSB index for a second-type terminal based on the determination result (second determination result) of the measured cell. It can determine the SSB index acquisition method by determining whether the measured cell contains co-located cells (i.e., co-located neighboring cells) or non-co-located cells (i.e., non-co-located neighboring cells). This allows for the determination of the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling based on the co-location status of the measured cell, thereby determining the acquisition method of the neighbor cell SSB index for the terminal. Compared to the existing technology that uses frequency points to set the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, this disclosed technical solution can achieve reasonable setting of the truth parameters in the SSB index derivation signaling, thereby improving the overall system throughput.

[0164] In an optional implementation, the above steps are related to the timing of network-side synchronization measurements, including:

[0165] Obtain one or more sets of first SMTC cycles and biases configured on the network side;

[0166] or

[0167] Report one or more sets of second SMTC cycles and biases to the network side.

[0168] As described above, the network side can take the lead in synchronously measuring timing relationships with the second type of terminal, or the second type of terminal can take the lead in synchronously measuring timing relationships with the network side.

[0169] For situations where the network side dominates the timing relationship of synchronous measurement, the network side can configure one or more sets of SMTC cycles (i.e., the first SMTC cycle) and offsets; then, the network side reports one or more sets of SMTC cycles and offsets to the second type of terminal.

[0170] In cases where the second type of terminal dominates the synchronization measurement timing relationship, the second type of terminal can report one or more sets of SMTC cycles (i.e., the second SMTC cycle) and offset to the network side; then, the network side receives one or more sets of SMTC cycles and offset reported by the second type of terminal.

[0171] In an optional implementation, the above steps determine the measurement method of the second type of terminal for the neighboring cell SSB index based on the measurement timing relationship, specifically including the following steps:

[0172] First, the cell type of the cell measured by the second type of terminal is determined based on the measurement time sequence;

[0173] Secondly, based on the cell type of the cell measured by the second type of terminal, the measurement method of the neighboring cell SSB index by the second type of terminal is determined.

[0174] In this embodiment of the disclosure, it is determined that within the SMTC window corresponding to the first SMTC period and offset or the SMTC window corresponding to the second SMTC period and offset, the cell measured by the second type of terminal includes the serving cell and co-located neighbor cells. It is also determined that within other SMTC windows besides the SMTC window corresponding to the first SMTC period and offset or the SMTC window corresponding to the second SMTC period and offset, the cell measured by the second type of terminal includes non-co-located neighbor cells.

[0175] Here, the second type of terminal can determine the first SMTC cycle and offset that the network side dominates synchronization in each SMTC cycle and offset; or the second SMTC cycle and offset that the second type of terminal dominates synchronization. In this case, the second type of terminal can determine the cells measured by the second type of terminal within the SMTC window corresponding to the first SMTC cycle and offset or the second SMTC cycle and offset as the serving cell and co-located neighbor cells. For other SMTC windows besides the first SMTC cycle and offset or the second SMTC cycle and offset, the cells measured by the second type of terminal include non-co-located neighbor cells.

[0176] In an optional implementation, the above steps determine the method of sending and receiving communication data based on the measured timing relationship, specifically including the following cases:

[0177] Scenario 1:

[0178] If, based on the measurement timing relationship, it is determined that the cell measured by the second type of terminal includes a serving cell and co-located neighboring cells, communication data transmission and reception shall be stopped within the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol in the SMTC window and the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol.

[0179] In this embodiment, within the SMTC window of the serving cell and co-located neighboring cells configured on the network side or reported by the second type of terminal, it can be determined that the second type of terminal obtains the SSB index of the co-located neighboring cell by deriving the SSB index of the co-located neighboring cell from the serving cell's SSB index. At this time, when the second type of terminal performs measurements, if the network side requires the terminal to report the SSB index (SSB-index) of the co-located neighboring cell, it is not necessary to read the SSB index (SSB-index) of the co-located neighboring cell. The SSB index of the co-located neighboring cell can be derived from the SSB index of the serving cell. Furthermore, within the SMTC window, no data transmission or reception occurs during the time period corresponding to the serving cell SSB symbol to be measured (the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol) and the time period corresponding to the preceding and following data symbols (the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol). Simultaneously, within the SMTC window, the network side does not perform uplink or downlink data scheduling during the time period corresponding to the serving cell SSB symbol to be measured and the preceding and following data symbols.

[0180] Scenario 2:

[0181] If, based on the measurement timing relationship, it is determined that the cell measured by the second type of terminal contains non-co-located neighboring cells, communication data transmission and reception shall be stopped within the SMTC window.

[0182] In this embodiment, outside the SMTC window for the serving cell and co-located neighbor cells configured on the network side or reported by the second type of terminal (i.e., within other SMTC windows), it can be determined that the second type of terminal obtains the SSB index of the co-located neighbor cell through measurement. At this time, in other SMTC windows, if the network side requires the second type of terminal to report the SSB index (SSB-index) of the co-located neighbor cell, the second type of terminal needs to read the SSB-index of the co-located neighbor cell when performing measurements, and does not perform data transmission or reception within the SMTC window. Simultaneously, the network side does not perform uplink or downlink data scheduling.

[0183] As described above, the technical solution disclosed herein can set the truth data of SSB index derivation instruction signaling deriveSSB-IndexFromCell and deriveSSB-IndexFromCellInter-r17 by distinguishing whether the measurement cell of the terminal includes co-site cells or non-co-site cells. This truth data can then be used to define the behavior of the terminal and the network, thereby improving the overall throughput of the system.

[0184] The above process will be described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0185] First, the second type of terminal reports its terminal capabilities to the network side. The type of the second type of terminal can be determined by these terminal capabilities. For example, if the terminal capabilities reported by the second type of terminal to the network side include antennaArrayType-r18, it means that the terminal is a directional antenna terminal.

[0186] Next, the network side is configured with measurement timing relationship 1, i.e., SMTC configuration as follows:

[0187] SMTC period 20ms,offset 0slot.

[0188] Second type of terminal reporting measurement timing relationship 2:

[0189] SMTC period 60ms,offset 0slot;

[0190] SMTC period 60ms,offset 20slot.

[0191] Here, the second type of terminal can report measurement timing relationship 2 to the network side, and the network side can configure measurement timing relationship 1 based on measurement timing relationship 2.

[0192] Within the SMTC window corresponding to the second SMTC cycle and offset reported by the second type of terminal:

[0193] When the second type of terminal performs measurements, no data is transmitted or received within the time period of the serving cell SSB symbol to be measured and the preceding and following data symbols within the SMTC window.

[0194] Within the SMTC window, the network side does not perform uplink or downlink data scheduling for the time period of the serving cell SSB symbol to be tested within the SMTC window and the data symbol before and after it.

[0195] In other SMTC windows for other network configurations besides this SMTC window:

[0196] Type II terminals do not send or receive data in other SMTC windows;

[0197] The network side does not perform uplink and downlink data scheduling within other SMTC windows.

[0198] Those skilled in the art will understand that, in the above-described method of the specific implementation, the order in which each step is written does not imply a strict execution order and does not constitute any limitation on the implementation process. The specific execution order of each step should be determined by its function and possible internal logic.

[0199] Based on the same inventive concept, this disclosure also provides an information reporting device corresponding to the information reporting method. Since the principle of the device in this disclosure for solving the problem is similar to the information reporting method described above in this disclosure, the implementation of the device can refer to the implementation of the method, and the repeated parts will not be described again.

[0208] In one possible implementation, the device is further configured to: when the method by which the first type of terminal obtains the SSB index of the neighboring cell is determined based on the acquisition method to be deriving the SSB index of the neighboring cell through the SSB index of the serving cell, stop sending communication data within the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol in the SMTC window, and stop sending communication data within the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol; wherein, the target SSB symbol is the time period within the SMTC window during which the serving cell is measured.

[0209] In one possible implementation, the device is further configured to: stop sending communication data within the SMTC window if it is determined, based on the acquisition method, that the method by which the first type of terminal acquires the neighboring cell SSB index is by measuring the neighboring cell SSB.

[0212] A receiving unit is configured to receive a first message reported by a terminal and obtain a receiving result of the measurement report; wherein, the first type of terminal sends the first message to the network side when it determines that the effective condition is not effective based on a first determination result, and the first determination result is used to indicate whether the effective condition is effective.

[0213] In one possible implementation, the device is further configured to: determine an uplink data scheduling method based on the reception result of the first message.

[0214] In one possible implementation, the device is further configured to: upon receiving a first message reported by the first type of terminal, determine the uplink data scheduling mode as a first scheduling mode; wherein the first scheduling mode is configured to indicate that uplink data scheduling is not performed within the SMTC window; and if no first message is received from the first type of terminal, determine the uplink data scheduling mode as a second scheduling mode; wherein the second scheduling mode is configured to indicate that uplink data scheduling is not performed within the time period corresponding to the target SSB symbol in the SMTC window and within the time period corresponding to the number of adjacent target SSB symbols of the target SSB symbol.

[0215] Referring to Figure 6, which is a schematic diagram of a data communication device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, the device is disposed in a second type of terminal and specifically includes: a synchronization unit 61, a second determination unit 62, and a second determination unit 63; wherein...
