DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0040] To better understand the radio resource management measurement method disclosed by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the communication system applied in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below first.

For example, the network device 11 may be an evolved NodeB (eNB), a transmission reception point (TRP), a next generation NodeB (gNB) in an NR system, a base station in other future mobile communication systems, or an access node in a wireless fidelity (WiFi) system.

The network device provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure may be composed of a central unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU). Here, the CU is also called a control unit. By adopting the CU-DU structure, the protocol layer of the network device, such as a base station, is separated, the functions of some protocol layers are centrally controlled by the CU, the functions of the remaining part or all of the protocol layers are distributed to the DU, and the DU can be centrally controlled by the CU.

[0044] The terminal device 12 in the embodiments of the present disclosure is a user-side entity for receiving and transmitting signals such as mobile phones.

[0045] It should be noted that the communication system described in the embodiments of the present disclosure is for more clearly explaining the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation to the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art can understand that as the system architecture evolves and new service scenarios emerge, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be similarly applied to similar problems.

[0046] Hereinafter, the wireless resource management measurement method and its device provided by the present disclosure will be described in detail in conjunction with the drawings.

[0047] Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a radio resource management measurement method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, and this method is executed by a terminal device. As shown in FIG. 2, this method can include, but is not limited to, the following steps 21 to 22.

[0048] In step 21, based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters, a first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device is determined.

[0049] Optionally, the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters can include the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM low mobility reference measurement parameters, the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM stationary reference measurement parameters, and the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM non-cell edge reference measurement parameters, and can include at least one of them.

[0050] Each terminal device can have corresponding RRM low mobility reference measurement parameters, RRM stationary reference measurement parameters, and RRM non-cell edge reference measurement parameters. It can be understood that the RRM low mobility reference measurement parameters, RRM stationary reference measurement parameters, and RRM non-cell edge reference measurement parameters may be the same or different. It should be noted that the RRM measurement parameters corresponding to terminal devices with different numbers of antennas may be the same or different, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0051] In step 22, based on the first RRM measurement parameter, RRM measurement is performed.

[0052] Note that the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device is different, and there are variations in the corresponding measured signal strengths. For example, a terminal device with one antenna at the same position in the cell and having the same moving speed has a higher measured signal strength value of the terminal device with two antennas compared to the measured signal strength value of the terminal device with one antenna in many cases. Note that the ability of terminal devices with different numbers of antennas to receive environmental interference is also different. That is, a terminal device with two antennas receives less environmental interference and the signal variation is relatively stable. In this case, when terminal devices with different numbers of antennas perform RRM measurements using a set of measurement parameters, the radio resource management becomes inaccurate, which may Battery life affect the terminal device. Therefore, in the present disclosure, different RRM measurement parameters are determined for terminal devices with different numbers of antennas, and further, by performing RRM measurements based on the determined RRM measurement parameters, the power consumption of the terminal device is reduced while reliably supporting the mobility of the terminal device.

[0053] Optionally, after determining the first RRM measurement parameters, the terminal device can determine the state of the terminal device based on the first RRM measurement parameters. For example, after determining the state of the terminal device, such as a low mobility state, a stationary state, a non-cell edge state, etc., the measurement cycle and measurement range of RRM can be updated. For example, in order to save the power consumption of the terminal device, the measurement cycle of RRM can be extended correspondingly, or the measurement of adjacent cells can be stopped.

[0054] Note that terminal devices with the same number of antennas but different states may have the same or different updated RRM measurement cycles. Or, terminal devices with the same number of antennas but different states may have the same or different updated measurement ranges. Terminal devices with different numbers of antennas but the same state may have the same or different updated RRM measurement cycles. Or, terminal devices with different numbers of antennas but the same state may have the same or different updated measurement ranges. The present disclosure does not limit this.

[0055] Optionally, the terminal device can determine the RRM measurement cycle and measurement range corresponding to different states based on protocol rules or based on instructions from the network device.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device determines a first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters, and then performs RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter. Thereby, the terminal device performs RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of its antennas, which not only ensures the accuracy and reliability of its antenna resource management, but also saves the power consumption of the terminal device and improves the Battery life performance of the terminal device.

[0057] Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a radio resource management measurement method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, and this method is executed by a terminal device. As shown in FIG. 3, this method can include, but is not limited to, the following steps 31 to 33.

[0058] In step 31, based on the received instruction message, determine the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM measurement parameters.

[0059] Optionally, the instruction information includes The mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM low mobility reference measurement parameters, and The mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM stationary reference measurement parameters, and The mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM non-cell-edge reference measurement parameters, at least one of which can be included.

[0060] Step 32, based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters, determine the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device.

[0061] Optionally, in response to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device being the first number, determine that the RRM low mobility reference measurement parameter is the first threshold.

[0062] Or, in response to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device being the second number, determine that the RRM low mobility reference measurement parameter is the second threshold.

[0063] The first number is different from the second number, the first threshold is different from the second threshold, or the same.

[0064] For example, the first number may be 1 and the second number may be 2.

[0065] Optionally, the first threshold and the second threshold may be measurement time length thresholds, Or, the first threshold and the second threshold may be signal strength difference thresholds, Or, the first threshold and the second threshold may be measurement time length thresholds and signal strength difference thresholds.

[0066] The signal strength difference threshold indicates a threshold value of the difference between the received signal strength of the reference and the signal strength of the serving cell at the current time measured by the terminal device within a time period exceeding the measurement time length threshold.

[0067] Optionally, in the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM low-mobility reference measurement parameters, the first number is 1, the second number is 2, and since the interference resistance ability of a terminal device with a single antenna is weak, when the measurement time length threshold is the same, the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the first number may be greater than the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the second number.

[0068] Or, the first number is 1, the second number is 2, and the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the first number may be smaller than the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the second number.

[0069] Or, the first number is 1, the second number is 2, and the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the first number may be equal to the signal strength difference threshold corresponding to the second number. The present disclosure does not limit this.

[0070] Optionally, in response to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device being the first number, it is determined that the fixed RRM stationary reference measurement parameter is the third threshold.

[0071] Or, in response to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device being the second number, it is determined that the RRM stationary reference measurement parameter is the fourth threshold.

[0072] Optionally, the third threshold and the fourth threshold may be the measurement time length threshold, Or, the third threshold and the fourth threshold may be the signal strength difference threshold, Or, the third threshold and the fourth threshold may be the measurement time length threshold and the signal strength difference threshold.

[0073] Optionally, in response to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device being the first number, it is determined that the RRM non-cell-edge reference measurement parameter is the fifth threshold.

[0074] Or, in response to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device being the second number, it is determined that the RRM non-cell-edge reference measurement parameter is the sixth threshold.

[0075] The first number is different from the second number, and the fifth threshold is different from or the same as the sixth threshold.

[0076] Optionally, the fifth threshold and the sixth threshold may be signal strength thresholds, or the fifth threshold and the sixth threshold may be signal quality thresholds, or the fifth threshold and the sixth threshold may be signal strength thresholds and signal quality thresholds.

[0077] The signal quality threshold is the threshold of the signal quality received by the terminal device. The signal strength threshold is the threshold of the signal strength received by the terminal device. That is, when the signal quality received by the terminal device is greater than the signal quality threshold and the received signal strength is greater than the signal strength threshold, this terminal device is in a non-cell-edge state.

[0078] In step 33, based on the first RRM measurement parameter, RRM measurement is performed.

[0079] For the specific implementation form of step 33, reference can be made to the detailed description in other embodiments of the present disclosure, which will not be described in detail here.

[0080] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal device first determines the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the RRM measurement parameter based on the received indication message, and then determines the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and the radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameter, and finally performs RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter. Thereby, the terminal device performs RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of its antennas, which not only guarantees the accuracy and reliability of its antenna resource management, but also saves the power consumption of the terminal device and improves the Battery life performance of the terminal device.

[0081] Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a schematic flowchart of a radio resource management measurement method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, and this method is executed by a terminal device. As shown in FIG. 4, this method may include, but is not limited to, the following steps 41 to 43.

[0082] In step 41, based on protocol rules, determine the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM measurement parameters.

[0083] In step 42, based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters, determine the first RRM measurement parameter corresponding to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device.

[0084] For the specific implementation form of step 42, reference can be made to the detailed description in other embodiments of the present disclosure, and details are not described here.

[0085] In step 43, when the terminal device is in the radio resource control (RRC) idle state or the RRC deactivated state, perform RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameter.

[0086] When the terminal device is in the RRC idle state or the RRC deactivated state, RRM measurement can be performed based on the first RRM measurement parameter in either case. Further save the power consumption of the terminal device and improve the Battery life of the terminal device.

[0087] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device first determines the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and RRM measurement parameters based on protocol rules, and then determines the first RRM measurement parameters corresponding to the number of receiving antennas of the terminal device based on the mapping relationship between the number of antennas and radio resource management (RRM) measurement parameters. Finally, when the terminal device is in the RRC idle state or the RRC deactivated state, RRM measurement is performed based on the first RRM measurement parameters. Thereby, the terminal device performs RRM measurement based on the first RRM measurement parameters corresponding to the number of its antennas, which not only guarantees the accuracy and reliability of its antenna resource management, but also saves the power consumption of the terminal device and Battery life improves the

[0091] Each terminal device can have corresponding RRM low mobility reference measurement parameters, RRM stationary reference measurement parameters, and RRM non-cell edge reference measurement parameters, and it can be understood that the RRM low mobility reference measurement parameters, RRM stationary reference measurement parameters, and RRM non-cell edge reference measurement parameters may be the same or different. Note that the RRM measurement parameters corresponding to terminal devices with different numbers of antennas may be the same or different, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
