Background Art

[0002] Currently, various measurement intervals have been introduced, such as simultaneous measurement intervals, pre-configured measurement intervals, small measurement intervals controlled by the network, etc. There are differences in the configuration method, activation and deactivation methods, specific measurement interval patterns, etc. between different types of measurement intervals. Currently, the network can configure multiple measurement intervals and their corresponding priorities for the terminal. When a measurement interval conflict occurs due to overlap in the configured multiple measurement intervals, the protocol stipulates that the measurement interval with a lower priority should be abandoned. However, the purpose of each measurement interval is determined by the terminal itself, and the terminal needs to abandon the measurement interval with a lower priority according to the protocol regulations when resolving the measurement interval conflict. Therefore, the measurement interval that the terminal hopes to use to perform important functions or operations may be abandoned because its priority is relatively low, resulting in the terminal being unable to perform important functions or operations, and further reducing the performance of the terminal.

[0043] Before introducing the technical aspects relating to the embodiments of this application, let me explain the related technologies.

[0044] Related technologies have introduced various measurement intervals, such as simultaneous measurement intervals, pre-configured measurement intervals, small measurement intervals for network control, Multi-Universal Subscriber Identification Module (MUSIM) measurement intervals, positioning measurement intervals, and non-terrestrial network (NTN) measurement intervals. Differences exist between different types of measurement intervals in configuration methods, activation and deactivation methods, and specific measurement interval patterns. Currently, due to issues such as time and complexity, scenarios in which multiple measurement intervals are used in combination are not considered; that is, only simple scenarios in which each measurement interval is used independently are considered, and furthermore, the number of measurement intervals configured simultaneously is limited to two or less. In actual networks, scenarios in which multiple measurement intervals coexist are possible. This is also one of the important research directions for the future.

[0045] In the case of simultaneous measurement intervals, the network instructs the priority of each measurement interval via Radio Resource Control (RRC), and it is not possible to have the same priority for both measurement intervals. If there is a time-domain overlap in the measurement intervals, the terminal discards the measurement interval corresponding to the lower priority. Of these, there are two cases in which there is a time-domain overlap in the measurement intervals: the first is a case where there is actual overlap in the time domain, and the second is a case where there is no overlap in the time domain, but the distance between the two is less than a certain value, and the user equipment (UE) cannot process it.

[0046] Considering factors such as complexity and terminal processing power, when multiple measurement intervals coexist, there is a possibility of measurement interval conflicts due to overlap. Currently, how multiple measurement intervals are used is implemented by the terminal, and the network does not have information about how the terminals implement them. In other words, there is no agreement between the network and the terminals regarding the use of measurement intervals, so the terminal may discard measurement intervals for relatively important functions or operations, which may prevent the terminal from performing the relevant functions or operations, resulting in a decrease in performance. These operations include receiving broadcasts or paging, and measuring at the same frequencies.

[0047] For example, there are scenarios where multiple measurement intervals coexist, making it highly likely that multiple measurement intervals will coexist. Taking the Multi-Universal Subscriber Identification Module (MUSIM) as an example, it is possible to configure up to four measurement intervals, and if other types of measurement intervals are considered, the number of measurement intervals could be even greater. How a terminal uses multiple measurement intervals is implemented by the terminal in the relevant technologies, and the network does not have the relevant information. This leads to the problem that terminals may use lower-priority measurement intervals to perform relatively important operations. Taking MUSIM as an example, considering the transmission status of reference symbols, broadcasts, etc., the terminal uses a given measurement interval to receive broadcasts or paging. If a conflict exists between that measurement interval and other measurement intervals, that measurement interval is discarded, meaning the terminal cannot use that measurement interval. As a result, the terminal is unable to perform important operations, which ultimately leads to a decrease in performance. Furthermore, for example, switching of a partial bandwidth (BWP, Bandwidth Part) increases the likelihood that measurement intervals will be required for frequency measurements. However, if the measurement intervals used by the terminal for frequency measurements are dropped, the terminal will be unable to perform frequency measurements, which is relatively important for mobility and will further impact mobility.

[0048] Based on this, the embodiments of the present application transmit first information relating to measurement or measurement interval and / or acquire second information relating to measurement or measurement interval.

[0049] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the implementation flow of an information transmission method according to an embodiment of the present application, the method being applied to a terminal and including step 101 as shown in Figure 1, Step 101 is to transmit primary information regarding a measurement or measurement interval, and / or to obtain secondary information regarding a measurement or measurement interval.

[0050] In actual applications, transmitting the above-mentioned first information includes the terminal transmitting the first information to a network. The network may be described as network-side equipment, network nodes, or base stations.

[0051] Based on this, in one embodiment, transmitting the above-mentioned first information is: Including transmitting primary information to the network, Among them, the aforementioned first information includes: Measurement interval, and / or, The application of the measurement interval, and / or Priority is included.

[0052] Here, the measurement interval represents the relevant information of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, the purpose of the measurement interval represents the purpose of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and the priority represents the priority of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use.

[0053] Understandably, the measurement intervals may be described as measurement gap(s), intervals, or gap(s). Measurement intervals include MUSIM gap (or MUSIM measurement gap, or MUSIM MG), Pre-MG, NCSG, positioning gap, and NTN gap. The network may configure multiple MUSIM gaps, and terminals may indicate the priority of each MUSIM gap, which helps the network and terminals have a consistent understanding of how to use measurement intervals and is advantageous in resolving measurement collisions or overlapping measurement intervals.

[0054] What needs to be explained is that the purpose (or intended use) and priority of the measurement interval do not necessarily have to be present simultaneously within the first information, and whether they are present or not, the essence is to help the network configure priorities more favorably. The content within the first information is the terminal's preference or likes, which helps the network obtain more information.

[0055] One understandable advantage of allowing a terminal to help the network know the purpose / use of measurement intervals is that it helps the network know how the terminal uses the measurement intervals, allowing for the configuration of higher priority for measurement intervals used by the terminal for relatively important operations. As a result, if a conflict exists with other measurement intervals, it avoids the situation where the terminal is unable to perform the relevant operation due to the measurement interval being dropped because of its lower priority.

[0056] In actual applications, obtaining the aforementioned second information includes pre-obtaining the second information from a protocol, i.e., pre-defining it in the protocol, and / or obtaining the second information from a network. It may also be described as some information elements within the second information being pre-defined in the protocol, and some information elements being delivered over the network.

[0057] Based on this, in one embodiment, obtaining the above-mentioned second information is possible. This includes receiving second information transmitted from the network, Among them, the second piece of information mentioned above includes: Measurement interval, and / or, The application of the measurement interval, and / or Priority is included.

[0058] Here, the measurement interval represents the relevant information of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network, the use of the measurement interval represents the use of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network, and the priority represents the priority of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network.

[0059] Understandably, the measurement intervals may be described as measurement gap(s), intervals, or gap(s). Measurement intervals include MUSIM gap (or MUSIM measurement gap, or MUSIM MG), Pre-MG, NCSG, positioning gap, and NTN gap. The network may configure multiple MUSIM gaps, and terminals may indicate the priority of each MUSIM gap, which helps the network and terminals have a consistent understanding of how to use measurement intervals and is advantageous in resolving measurement collisions or overlapping measurement intervals.

[0060] Understandably, the measurement interval transmitted from the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval) or the measurement interval transmitted from the network (or described as a measurement interval composed by the network and received by the terminal) includes a measurement interval index (which may be described as a gap ID or gap pattern ID), and / or the length of the measurement interval, and / or the repeat period of the measurement interval, and / or the offset of the measurement interval, and / or the starting position of the measurement interval (including at least one of the starting system frame number, frame, or subframe).

[0061] In other words, the relationship between the use of the measurement interval in the second information and the use of the measurement interval in the first information is such that the network first learns how the terminal uses the measurement interval according to the first information reported by the terminal, and then uses the first information to configure the priority of the measurement interval.

[0062] In one embodiment, the purpose of the measurement interval is: For receiving paging, and / or, For receiving broadcasts, and / or, For receiving system messages, and / or, For measuring RRM, and / or, For measuring the same frequency, and / or For measuring different frequencies, and / or, For measuring handover, and / or, Includes measurement for Layer 1.

[0063] It is understandable that "receiving" here may also be described as "acquiring".

[0064] To understand it, Layer 1 (or referred to as L1) measurements include L1 measurements of the serving cell and / or L1 measurements of cells that have a different physical cell identifier (PCI) from the serving cell. L1 measurements include L1-RSRP and / or L1-SINR.

[0065] In one embodiment, when the same measurement interval is used for different applications, the priority of the measurement interval differs for each application.

[0066] It can be understood that the aforementioned identical measurement intervals may also be described as the same set of measurement intervals.

[0067] In actual applications, one embodiment involves the terminal explicitly notifying the network of the purpose (or intended use) of the measurement interval.

[0068] In actual applications, another aspect implicitly explains this through the configuration of the measurement interval within the first information, in which it is not necessary to include the use (or purpose) of the measurement interval, but it is necessary to define it in the protocol to ensure a consistent understanding between the terminal and the network. Specifically, if the measurement interval is aperiodic, it includes at least one of the following: a mode in which the measurement interval is used for receiving system messages, and if the measurement interval has the longest period, it includes a mode in which the measurement interval is used for receiving paging.

[0069] Based on this, in one embodiment, the first information is Non-periodic measurement intervals, and / or, The non-periodic measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The longest periodic measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The non-periodic measurement interval is for paging, and / or, This indicates that the longest periodic measurement interval is for paging.

[0070] Here, the purpose of the measurement interval is implicitly communicated. Understandably, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval), it is implicitly included that the non-periodic measurement intervals among them are for system messages and / or paging (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol). And / or, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval), it is implicitly included that the measurement interval with the largest period (or described as having the longest period) among them is for system messages and / or paging (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol). This method saves signaling overhead and eliminates the need for the terminal to specify the particular purpose of the measurement interval.

[0071] In actual applications, one embodiment is that the terminal explicitly notifies the network of its priority.

[0072] In actual applications, another aspect implicitly explains this through the configuration of the measurement intervals within the first information, in which case it is not necessary to explicitly include priority, but it is necessary to define it within the protocol to ensure a consistent understanding between the terminal and the network. Specifically, this includes at least one of the following: an aspect in which a non-periodic measurement interval is given high priority, and an aspect in which the longest periodic measurement interval is given high priority.

[0073] Based on this, in one embodiment, the first information is Non-periodic measurement intervals, and / or, Non-periodic measurement intervals should be given high priority, and / or This is to indicate that the measurement interval with the longest period has the highest priority.

[0074] Here, the aforementioned priority is implicitly communicated.

[0075] It can be understood that, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as preferred measurement intervals), the priority of the non-periodic measurement intervals among them is implicitly included (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol), and may be described as the highest priority measurement interval among the measurement intervals reported by the terminal. In one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as preferred measurement intervals), the priority of the measurement interval with the largest period (or described as having the longest period) among them is implicitly included (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol), and may be described as the highest priority measurement interval among the measurement intervals reported by the terminal. This method saves signaling overhead and eliminates the need for the terminal to specify the particular priority of measurement intervals.

[0076] In one embodiment, the first information is The measurement interval is for paging, and / or, The measurement interval is for broadcast use, and / or, The measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The measurement interval is for RRM measurement, and / or, The measurement interval is for measurements at the same frequency, and / or, The measurement interval is for measuring different frequencies, and / or The measurement interval is for handover measurements, and / or, This indicates that the measurement interval is for L1 measurement.

[0077] It can be understood that a measurement interval being for paging may be described as relating to paging, a measurement interval being for broadcasting may be described as relating to broadcasting, a measurement interval being for system messages may be described as relating to system messages, a measurement interval being for RRM measurement may be described as relating to RRM measurement, a measurement interval being for same-frequency measurement may be described as relating to same-frequency measurement, a measurement interval being for different-frequency measurement may be described as relating to different-frequency measurement, a measurement interval being for handover measurement may be described as relating to handover measurement, and a measurement interval being for L1 measurement may be described as relating to L1 measurement.

[0078] In one embodiment, the first information is Priority of measurement intervals, and / or The highest priority measurement interval, and / or, Priority of measurement intervals where the measurement interval repetition period is equal to or greater than the first threshold, and / or The measurement interval in which the repetition period of the measurement interval is equal to or greater than the first threshold has a high priority, and / or, This is used to specify a measurement interval in which the repetition period of the measurement interval is equal to or greater than the second threshold.

[0079] It can be understood that the priority of measurement intervals transmitted (or described as reported or instructed) from a terminal includes the terminal's preferred priority of measurement intervals (the priority includes or is described as a priority level). The network can configure the priority of measurement intervals by referring to this information. A terminal can specify the priority of each measurement interval, or it can specify the priority of only some of the measurement intervals.

[0080] For example, it may be indicated by a single bit, and if TRUE or a value of 1, it may indicate high priority, and the priority of the corresponding measurement interval may be described as high priority. Furthermore, for example, the priority level may be indicated, and the priority level of the corresponding measurement interval may be described as being indicated.

[0081] Understandably, the highest priority measurement interval includes a priority index (which may be described as a priority level) and / or a measurement interval index (which may be described as a gap ID or gap pattern ID) and / or the length of the measurement interval and / or the repeat period of the measurement interval and / or the offset of the measurement interval and / or the start position of the measurement interval (which includes at least one of the starting system frame number, frame, or subframe).

[0082] For example, a single bit may be used to indicate that, for instance, TRUE or a value of 1 indicates the highest priority, and the measurement interval in question may be described as having the highest priority. Furthermore, for example, the terminal may indicate or report the ID of a measurement interval, and that measurement interval may be described as the highest priority measurement interval, or as the highest priority measurement interval preferred by the terminal.

[0083] In one embodiment, the second information is Non-periodic measurement intervals should be given high priority, and / or The longest periodic measurement interval has the highest priority, and / or, The measurement interval for the same frequency measurement is of high priority, and / or The measurement interval for paging should be given high priority, and / or The measurement interval for system messages should have high priority, and / or Ensure at least two measurement intervals, and / or This is to instruct that spacing be maintained between multi-universal subscriber identification modules.

[0084] It should be explained that the paging and system messages referred to here are paging and system messages from another system or another cell.

[0085] Specifically, in one scenario, we assume that the terminal is currently located in system A and can receive paging and / or system messages from system B through a measurement interval. Within the measurement interval, the terminal can temporarily disconnect from system A and tune into system B to receive messages.

[0086] In another scenario, assume that the terminal is currently located in cell C and can receive paging and / or system messages from cell D via a measurement interval. Within the measurement interval, the terminal can temporarily disconnect from cell C and tune into cell D for reception. It is not explicitly stated in this application that the second information is transmitted by the network, including that in such cases the second information is predefined within the protocol.

[0087] Here, the multi-universal subscriber identity module may be described as MUSIM (Multi-Universal Subscriber Identity Module). The interval between multi-universal subscriber identity modules may be described as the measurement interval between multi-universal subscriber identity modules, or as MUSIM gap or MUSIM gap(s), or as MUSIM MG (measurement gap). The multi-universal subscriber identity module may be described as ensuring the interval between conflicting multi-universal subscriber identity modules.

[0088] Specifically, in a single scene, if collisions exist between multiple MUSIM gaps, all MUSIM gaps are secured.

[0089] In another scenario, if a collision exists between one or more MUSIM gaps and other measurement intervals, the MUSIM gap(s) is secured and the other measurement intervals are discarded.

[0090] Collisioning measurement intervals may also be described as overlapping measurement intervals or collisioning measurements, and include at least one of the following: a time-domain overlap exists between at least two measurement intervals (or as two sets of measurement intervals or two measurement gap occasions), or the time-domain gap between at least two measurement intervals (or as two sets of measurement intervals or two measurement gap occasions) is below a certain threshold. Ensuring may also be described as adoption or application.

[0091] In one embodiment, ensuring the spacing between the multi-universal subscriber identification modules includes ensuring the spacing between multi-universal subscriber identification modules used at the same frequency point.

[0092] In one embodiment, the second information is The measurement interval is for paging, and / or, The measurement interval is for broadcast use, and / or, The measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The measurement interval is for RRM measurement, and / or, The measurement interval is for measurements at the same frequency, and / or, The measurement interval is for measuring different frequencies, and / or The measurement interval is for handover measurements, and / or, This indicates that the measurement interval is for L1 measurement.

[0093] One understandable advantage of the network transmitting secondary information is that the network instructs the terminal on the use of the measurement interval. The network can then construct the secondary information by referring to the primary information reported by the terminal.

[0094] In one embodiment, the method is This further includes receiving third-party information transmitted from a network, Of these, the third piece of information is intended to instruct the terminal to report the purpose and / or priority of the measurement interval.

[0095] In actual applications, the second piece of information acquired by the aforementioned terminal can also be used to define how to resolve conflicts in measurement intervals in specific scenarios.

[0096] Based on this, in one embodiment, the second information is If there is a non-periodic measurement interval within the measurement interval in which a collision occurs, the terminal shall ensure the non-periodic measurement interval and / or discard the other measurement intervals. If there is a measurement interval with the longest period among the measurement intervals in which collisions occur, the terminal reserves the measurement interval with the longest period and / or discards the other measurement intervals. Within the measurement interval where collisions occur, ensure a measurement interval for the same frequency, If all measurement intervals in which collisions occur are MUSIM, the terminal shall ensure all measurement intervals are maintained. If all measurement intervals where collisions occur are MUSIMs, and the colliding MUSIMs are used for related measurements or receptions at the same frequency point, the terminal shall ensure all collision-conforming measurement intervals. Within the measurement intervals where collisions occur, ensure that a measurement interval for paging is secured, It also serves to instruct at least one of the following: ensuring a measurement interval for system messages within the measurement interval where collisions occur.

[0097] What needs to be explained is that, if the second piece of information mentioned above specifies how to resolve collisions in measurement intervals in a particular scene, then in this case, it is not necessary to resolve the collisions based on priority.

[0098] Here, the longest periodic measurement interval may refer to the longest periodic measurement interval among the multiple measurement intervals configured for the terminal.

[0099] Here, the statement that the terminal ensures all collision measurement intervals means that the terminal does not discard any measurement intervals.

[0100] It should be explained that the phrase "that which indicates..." in the above description may also be written as "that which includes...".

[0101] The embodiments of this invention offer the following advantages. (1) An embodiment is provided that solves the problem of collisions in measurement intervals. Specifically, the terminal transmits first information to help the network become aware of the measurement or measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and further ensures that usage information regarding the measurement or measurement interval is maintained to match between the terminal and the network, thereby avoiding the problem of the terminal's performance degrading due to the terminal being unable to perform a relatively important function or operation because it discards a measurement interval for that function or operation when a measurement interval conflict occurs. and / or, the terminal receives second information to allow the network to become aware of the measurement or measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and further ensures that usage information regarding the measurement or measurement interval is maintained to match between the terminal and the network, thereby avoiding the problem of the terminal's performance degrading due to the terminal being unable to perform a relatively important function or operation because it discards a measurement interval for that function or operation when a measurement interval conflict occurs. (2) The terminal can explicitly notify the network of its preferred measurement intervals and their intended use and priority, or implicitly notify the network of its preferred measurement intervals and their intended use and priority. (3) The network clearly defines the purpose of measurement intervals, and the same measurement interval may have different priorities when used for different purposes. (4) The second information allows for the pre-definition of how to resolve collisions in measurement intervals in specific scenes, and in this way, the terminal can resolve collisions in specific scenes by adopting the pre-defined method.

[0102] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the implementation flow of an information transmission method according to an embodiment of the present application, the method being applied to network equipment and including step 201 as shown in Figure 2, Step 201 is to obtain first information regarding the measurement or measurement interval, and / or to transmit second information regarding the measurement or measurement interval.

[0103] In actual applications, obtaining the aforementioned first information includes receiving the first information transmitted from the terminal.

[0104] Based on this, in one embodiment, obtaining the above-mentioned first information is possible. This includes receiving the initial information transmitted from the terminal, Among them, the aforementioned first information includes: Measurement interval, and / or, The application of the measurement interval, and / or Priority is included.

[0105] Here, the measurement interval represents the relevant information of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, the purpose of the measurement interval represents the purpose of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and the priority represents the priority of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use.

[0106] Understandably, the measurement intervals may be described as measurement gap(s), intervals, or gap(s). Measurement intervals include MUSIM gap (or MUSIM measurement gap, or MUSIM MG), Pre-MG, NCSG, positioning gap, and NTN gap. The network may configure multiple MUSIM gaps, and terminals may indicate the priority of each MUSIM gap, which helps the network and terminals have a consistent understanding of how to use measurement intervals and is advantageous in resolving measurement collisions or overlapping measurement intervals.

[0107] What needs to be explained is that the purpose (or intended use) and priority of the measurement interval do not necessarily have to be present simultaneously within the first information, and whether they are present or not, the essence is to help the network configure priorities more favorably. The content within the first information is the terminal's preference or likes, which helps the network obtain more information.

[0108] One understandable advantage of allowing a terminal to help the network know the purpose / use of measurement intervals is that it helps the network know how the terminal uses the measurement intervals, allowing for the configuration of higher priority for measurement intervals used by the terminal for relatively important operations. As a result, if a conflict exists with other measurement intervals, it avoids the situation where the terminal is unable to perform the relevant operation due to the measurement interval being dropped because of its lower priority.

[0109] In actual applications, transmitting the aforementioned second information includes the network transmitting the second information to the terminal. Some information elements within the second information may be predefined in the protocol, while other information elements are delivered over the network.

[0110] Based on this, in one embodiment, transmitting the above-mentioned second information is: This includes sending secondary information to the terminal, Among them, the second piece of information mentioned above includes: Measurement interval, and / or, The application of the measurement interval, and / or Priority is included.

[0111] Here, the measurement interval represents the relevant information of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network, the use of the measurement interval represents the use of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network, and the priority represents the priority of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network.

[0112] Understandably, the measurement intervals may be described as measurement gap(s), intervals, or gap(s). Measurement intervals include MUSIM gap (or MUSIM measurement gap, or MUSIM MG), Pre-MG, NCSG, positioning gap, and NTN gap. The network may configure multiple MUSIM gaps, and terminals may indicate the priority of each MUSIM gap, which helps the network and terminals have a consistent understanding of how to use measurement intervals and is advantageous in resolving measurement collisions or overlapping measurement intervals.

[0113] Understandably, the measurement interval transmitted from the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval) or the measurement interval transmitted from the network (or described as a measurement interval composed by the network and received by the terminal) includes a measurement interval index (which may be described as a gap ID or gap pattern ID), and / or the length of the measurement interval, and / or the repeat period of the measurement interval, and / or the offset of the measurement interval, and / or the starting position of the measurement interval (including at least one of the starting system frame number, frame, or subframe).

[0114] In other words, the relationship between the use of the measurement interval in the second information and the use of the measurement interval in the first information is such that the network first learns how the terminal uses the measurement interval according to the first information reported by the terminal, and then uses the first information to configure the priority of the measurement interval.

[0115] In one embodiment, the purpose of the measurement interval is: For receiving paging, and / or, For receiving broadcasts, and / or, For receiving system messages, and / or, For measuring RRM, and / or, For measuring the same frequency, and / or For measuring different frequencies, and / or, For measuring handover, and / or, Includes measurement for Layer 1.

[0116] It is understandable that "receiving" here may also be described as "acquiring".

[0117] To understand it, Layer 1 (or referred to as L1) measurements include L1 measurements of the serving cell and / or L1 measurements of cells with a different PCI (Physical Cell ID) than the serving cell. L1 measurements include L1-RSRP and / or L1-SINR.

[0118] In one embodiment, when the same measurement interval is used for different applications, the priority of the measurement interval differs for each application.

[0119] It can be understood that the aforementioned identical measurement intervals may also be described as the same set of measurement intervals.

[0120] In actual applications, one embodiment involves the terminal explicitly notifying the network of the purpose (or intended use) of the measurement interval.

[0121] In actual applications, another aspect implicitly explains this through the configuration of the measurement interval within the first information, in which it is not necessary to include the use (or purpose) of the measurement interval, but it is necessary to define it in the protocol to ensure a consistent understanding between the terminal and the network. Specifically, if the measurement interval is aperiodic, it includes at least one of the following: a mode in which the measurement interval is used for receiving system messages, and if the measurement interval has the longest period, it includes a mode in which the measurement interval is used for receiving paging.

[0122] Based on this, in one embodiment, the first information is Non-periodic measurement intervals, and / or, The non-periodic measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The longest periodic measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The non-periodic measurement interval is for paging, and / or, This indicates that the longest periodic measurement interval is for paging.

[0123] Here, the purpose of the aforementioned measurement interval is implicitly communicated.

[0124] It can be understood that in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval), it is implicitly included that the non-periodic measurement intervals among them are for system messages and / or paging (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined by the protocol). And / or, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval), it is implicitly included that the measurement interval with the largest period (or described as having the longest period) among them is for system messages and / or paging (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined by the protocol). This method saves signaling overhead and eliminates the need for the terminal to specify the particular use of the measurement intervals.

[0125] In actual applications, one embodiment is that the terminal explicitly notifies the network of its priority.

[0126] In actual applications, another aspect implicitly explains this through the configuration of the measurement intervals within the first information, in which case it is not necessary to explicitly include priority, but it is necessary to define it within the protocol to ensure a consistent understanding between the terminal and the network. Specifically, this includes at least one of the following: an aspect in which a non-periodic measurement interval is given high priority, and an aspect in which the longest periodic measurement interval is given high priority.

[0127] Based on this, in one embodiment, the first information is Non-periodic measurement intervals, and / or, Non-periodic measurement intervals should be given high priority, and / or This is to indicate that the measurement interval with the longest period has the highest priority.

[0128] Here, the aforementioned priority is implicitly communicated.

[0129] It can be understood that, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as preferred measurement intervals), the priority of the non-periodic measurement intervals among them is implicitly included (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol), and may be described as the highest priority measurement interval among the measurement intervals reported by the terminal. In one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as preferred measurement intervals), the priority of the measurement interval with the largest period (or described as having the longest period) among them is implicitly included (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol), and may be described as the highest priority measurement interval among the measurement intervals reported by the terminal. This method saves signaling overhead and eliminates the need for the terminal to specify the particular priority of measurement intervals.

[0130] In one embodiment, the first information is The measurement interval is for paging, and / or, The measurement interval is for broadcast use, and / or, The measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The measurement interval is for RRM measurement, and / or, The measurement interval is for measurements at the same frequency, and / or, The measurement interval is for measuring different frequencies, and / or The measurement interval is for handover measurements, and / or, This indicates that the measurement interval is for L1 measurement.

[0131] It can be understood that a measurement interval being for paging may be described as relating to paging, a measurement interval being for broadcasting may be described as relating to broadcasting, a measurement interval being for system messages may be described as relating to system messages, a measurement interval being for RRM measurement may be described as relating to RRM measurement, a measurement interval being for same-frequency measurement may be described as relating to same-frequency measurement, a measurement interval being for different-frequency measurement may be described as relating to different-frequency measurement, a measurement interval being for handover measurement may be described as relating to handover measurement, and a measurement interval being for L1 measurement may be described as relating to L1 measurement.

[0132] In one embodiment, the first information is Priority of measurement intervals, and / or The highest priority measurement interval, and / or, Priority of measurement intervals where the measurement interval repetition period is equal to or greater than the first threshold, and / or The measurement interval in which the repetition period of the measurement interval is equal to or greater than the first threshold has a high priority, and / or, This is used to specify a measurement interval in which the repetition period of the measurement interval is equal to or greater than the second threshold.

[0133] It can be understood that the priority of measurement intervals transmitted (or described as reported or instructed) from a terminal includes the terminal's preferred priority of measurement intervals. The network can configure the priority of measurement intervals by referring to this information. A terminal can specify the priority of each measurement interval, or it can specify the priority of only some of the measurement intervals.

[0134] For example, it may be indicated by a single bit, and if TRUE or a value of 1, it may indicate high priority, and the priority of the corresponding measurement interval may be described as high priority. Furthermore, for example, the priority level may be indicated, and the priority level of the corresponding measurement interval may be described as being indicated.

[0135] Understandably, the highest priority measurement interval includes a priority index (which may be described as a priority level) and / or a measurement interval index (which may be described as a gap ID or gap pattern ID) and / or the length of the measurement interval and / or the repeat period of the measurement interval and / or the offset of the measurement interval and / or the start position of the measurement interval (which includes at least one of the starting system frame number, frame, or subframe).

[0136] For example, a single bit may be used to indicate that, for instance, TRUE or a value of 1 indicates the highest priority, and the measurement interval in question may be described as having the highest priority. Furthermore, for example, the terminal may indicate or report the ID of a measurement interval, and that measurement interval may be described as the highest priority measurement interval, or as the highest priority measurement interval preferred by the terminal.

[0137] In one embodiment, the second information is Non-periodic measurement intervals should be given high priority, and / or The longest periodic measurement interval has the highest priority, and / or, The measurement interval for the same frequency measurement is of high priority, and / or The measurement interval for paging should be given high priority, and / or The measurement interval for system messages should have high priority, and / or Ensure at least two measurement intervals, and / or This is to instruct that spacing be maintained between multi-universal subscriber identification modules.

[0138] It should be explained that the paging and system messages referred to here are paging and system messages from another system or another cell.

[0139] Specifically, in one scenario, we assume that the terminal is currently located in system A and can receive paging and / or system messages from system B through a measurement interval. Within the measurement interval, the terminal can temporarily disconnect from system A and tune into and receive from system B.

[0140] In another scenario, assume that a terminal is currently located in cell C and can receive paging and / or system messages from cell D via a measurement interval. Within the measurement interval, the terminal can temporarily disconnect from cell C and tune into cell D for reception. It is not explicitly stated in this application that second information is transmitted by the network, including that in such cases the second information is predefined within the protocol.

[0141] Here, the multi-universal subscriber identity module may be described as MUSIM (Multi-Universal Subscriber Identity Module). The interval between multi-universal subscriber identity modules may be described as the measurement interval between multi-universal subscriber identity modules, or as MUSIM gap or MUSIM gap(s), or as MUSIM MG (measurement gap). The multi-universal subscriber identity module may be described as ensuring the interval between conflicting multi-universal subscriber identity modules.

[0142] Specifically, in a single scene, if collisions exist between multiple MUSIM gaps, all MUSIM gaps are secured.

[0143] In another scenario, if a collision exists between one or more MUSIM gaps and other measurement intervals, the MUSIM gap(s) are reserved and the other measurement intervals are discarded. Collisioning measurement intervals may be described as overlapping measurement intervals or collisioning measurements, and include at least one of the following: a time-domain overlap exists between at least two measurement intervals (or described as two sets of measurement intervals or two measurement gap occasions), or the time-domain gap between at least two measurement intervals (or described as two sets of measurement intervals or two measurement gap occasions) is below a certain threshold. "Reserving" may be described as "adopting" or "applying."

[0144] In one embodiment, ensuring the spacing between the multi-universal subscriber identification modules includes ensuring the spacing between multi-universal subscriber identification modules used at the same frequency point.

[0145] In one embodiment, the second information is The measurement interval is for paging, and / or, The measurement interval is for broadcast use, and / or, The measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The measurement interval is for RRM measurement, and / or, The measurement interval is for measurements at the same frequency, and / or, The measurement interval is for measuring different frequencies, and / or The measurement interval is for handover measurements, and / or, This indicates that the measurement interval is for L1 measurement.

[0146] One understandable advantage of the network transmitting secondary information is that the network instructs the terminal on the use of the measurement interval. The network can then construct the secondary information by referring to the primary information reported by the terminal.

[0147] In one embodiment, the method is This further includes transmitting third-party information to the terminal, Of these, the third piece of information is intended to instruct the terminal to report the purpose and / or priority of the measurement interval.

[0148] In actual applications, the second piece of information acquired by the aforementioned terminal can also be used to define how to resolve conflicts in measurement intervals in specific scenarios.

[0149] Based on this, in one embodiment, the second information is If there is a non-periodic measurement interval within the measurement interval in which a collision occurs, the terminal shall ensure the non-periodic measurement interval and / or discard the other measurement intervals. If there is a measurement interval with the longest period among the measurement intervals in which collisions occur, the terminal reserves the measurement interval with the longest period and / or discards the other measurement intervals. Within the measurement interval where collisions occur, ensure a measurement interval for the same frequency, If all measurement intervals in which collisions occur are MUSIM, the terminal shall ensure all measurement intervals are maintained. If all measurement intervals where collisions occur are MUSIMs, and the colliding MUSIMs are used for related measurements or receptions at the same frequency point, the terminal shall ensure all collision-conforming measurement intervals. Within the measurement intervals where collisions occur, ensure that a measurement interval for paging is secured, It also serves to instruct at least one of the following: ensuring a measurement interval for system messages within the measurement interval where collisions occur.

[0150] What needs to be explained is that, if the second piece of information mentioned above specifies how to resolve collisions in measurement intervals in a particular scene, then in this case, it is not necessary to resolve the collisions based on priority.

[0151] Here, the longest periodic measurement interval may refer to the longest periodic measurement interval among the multiple measurement intervals configured for the terminal.

[0152] Here, the statement that the terminal ensures all collision measurement intervals means that the terminal does not discard any measurement intervals.

[0153] It should be explained that the phrase "that which indicates..." in the above description may also be written as "that which includes...".

[0154] The embodiments of this invention offer the following advantages. (1) An embodiment is provided that solves the problem of collisions in measurement intervals. Specifically, the terminal transmits first information to help the network become aware of the measurement or measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and further ensures that usage information regarding the measurement or measurement interval is maintained to match between the terminal and the network, thereby avoiding the problem of the terminal's performance degrading due to the terminal being unable to perform a relatively important function or operation because it discards a measurement interval for that function or operation when a measurement interval conflict occurs. and / or, the terminal receives second information to allow the network to become aware of the measurement or measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and further ensures that usage information regarding the measurement or measurement interval is maintained to match between the terminal and the network, thereby avoiding the problem of the terminal's performance degrading due to the terminal being unable to perform a relatively important function or operation because it discards a measurement interval for that function or operation when a measurement interval conflict occurs. (2) The terminal can explicitly notify the network of its preferred measurement intervals and their intended use and priority, or implicitly notify the network of its preferred measurement intervals and their intended use and priority. (3) The network clearly defines the purpose of measurement intervals, and the same measurement interval may have different priorities when used for different purposes. (4) The second information allows for the pre-definition of how to resolve collisions in measurement intervals in specific scenes, and in this way, the terminal can resolve collisions in specific scenes by adopting the pre-defined method.

[0155] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the specific implementation flow of the information transmission method according to the embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in Figure 3, the method includes steps 301 to 303.

[0156] Step 301 is for the terminal to transmit primary information to the network device. Among them, the aforementioned first information includes: Measurement interval, and / or, The application of the measurement interval, and / or Priority is included.

[0157] Here, the measurement interval represents the relevant information of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, the purpose of the measurement interval represents the purpose of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use, and the priority represents the priority of the measurement interval that the terminal wishes to use.

[0158] Here, the purpose of the measurement interval is, For receiving paging, and / or, For receiving broadcasts, and / or, For receiving system messages, and / or, For measuring RRM, and / or, For measuring the same frequency, and / or For measuring different frequencies, and / or, For measuring handover, and / or, Includes measurement for Layer 1.

[0159] In one embodiment, the terminal explicitly notifies the network of the purpose (or intended use) of the measurement interval.

[0160] Herein, in another aspect, this is implicitly explained by the configuration of the measurement interval in the first information, in which it is not necessary to include the use (or purpose) of the measurement interval, but in which it is necessary to define it in the protocol in order to ensure a consistent understanding between the terminal and the network.

[0161] Here, the first information includes: Non-periodic measurement intervals, and / or, The non-periodic measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The longest periodic measurement interval is for system messages, and / or, The non-periodic measurement interval is for paging, and / or, This includes the fact that the longest periodic measurement interval is used for paging.

[0162] Here, the purpose of the aforementioned measurement interval is implicitly communicated.

[0163] It can be understood that in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval), it is implicitly included that the non-periodic measurement intervals among them are for system messages and / or paging (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined by the protocol). And / or, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as a preferred measurement interval), it is implicitly included that the measurement interval with the largest period (or described as having the longest period) among them is for system messages and / or paging (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined by the protocol). This method saves signaling overhead and eliminates the need for the terminal to specify the particular use of the measurement intervals.

[0164] Here, the terminal may receive third information transmitted from the network, the third information of which is intended to instruct the terminal to report the purpose and / or priority of the measurement interval. If the third information instructs the terminal to report the purpose and / or priority of the measurement interval, the first information reported by the terminal will carry the purpose and / or priority of the measurement interval.

[0165] In one embodiment, the terminal explicitly notifies the network of its priority.

[0166] Herein, in another embodiment, the measurement interval is implicitly described by the configuration of the first information, in which it is not necessary to explicitly include priority, but in which which it is necessary to define in the protocol in order to ensure a consistent understanding between the terminal and the network.

[0167] Here, the first information is Non-periodic measurement intervals, and / or, Non-periodic measurement intervals should be given high priority, and / or This is to indicate that the measurement interval with the longest period has the highest priority.

[0168] Here, the aforementioned priority is implicitly communicated.

[0169] It can be understood that, in one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as preferred measurement intervals), the priority of the non-periodic measurement intervals among them is implicitly included (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol), and may be described as the highest priority measurement interval among the measurement intervals reported by the terminal. In one or more measurement intervals reported by the terminal (or described as preferred measurement intervals), the priority of the measurement interval with the largest period (or described as having the longest period) among them is implicitly included (or described as being negotiated between the network and the terminal, or described as being predefined in the protocol), and may be described as the highest priority measurement interval among the measurement intervals reported by the terminal. This method saves signaling overhead and eliminates the need for the terminal to specify the particular priority of measurement intervals.

[0170] Step 302 is for the network device to receive the first information transmitted from the terminal, and to refer to the first information to configure the measurement interval, priority, and related usage of the measurement interval. Here, this configuration is used for related measurements of subsequent terminals.

[0171] Step 303 is for the terminal to perform the corresponding intended use or operation within the measurement interval and / or resolve the measurement interval conflict, in accordance with the configuration transmitted from the network device. Here, the terminal may resolve measurement interval conflicts based on priority.

[0172] This example offers the following advantages: (1) An embodiment is provided that solves the problem of collisions in measurement intervals. Specifically, the terminal transmits primary information to the network to notify the network how it uses measurement intervals, including preferred uses and priorities, thereby helping the network know how the terminal uses measurement intervals and ensuring that usage information regarding measurement intervals is kept consistent between the terminal and the network. In this way, the problem of the terminal being unable to perform a function or operation due to the discarding of measurement intervals for relatively important functions and operations in the event of a measurement interval conflict can be avoided. (2) The terminal can explicitly notify the network of its preferred measurement intervals and their intended use and priority, or implicitly notify the network of its preferred measurement intervals and their intended use and priority.

[0173] Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the specific implementation flow of the information transmission method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in Figure 4, the method includes steps 401 to 402.

[0174] Step 401 is for the terminal to receive second information transmitted from the network. Among them, the second piece of information mentioned above includes: Measurement interval, and / or, The application of the measurement interval, and / or Priority is included.

[0175] Here, the measurement interval represents the relevant information of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network, the use of the measurement interval represents the use of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network, and the priority represents the priority of the measurement interval configured for the terminal by the network.

[0176] Here, the related configurations of the measurement interval, priority, and use of the measurement interval instructed by the network are used for subsequent related measurements of the terminal.

[0177] Here, the use of the measurement interval is for receiving paging, and / or for receiving broadcasts, and / or for receiving system messages, and / or for RRM measurements, and / or for co-frequency measurements, and / or for different-frequency measurements, and / or for handover measurements, and / or including for layer 1 measurements.

[0178] Here, when the same measurement interval is used for different purposes, the priorities of the measurement intervals for different purposes are different.

[0179] Step 402 is for the terminal to perform corresponding usage purposes or operations within the measurement interval according to the second information configured by the network, and / or resolve conflicts of the measurement interval. Here, the terminal may resolve conflicts of the measurement interval based on the priority.

[0180] In this example, there are the following advantages. (1) A manner of resolving the conflict problem of the measurement interval is provided.
