[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202310722815.X filed in China on June 16, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a cell measurement method, configuration method, device, terminal and network-side equipment. Background Art

[0004] In order to achieve energy saving, a low power receiver (Low Power Wake Up Radio, LP-WUR) was introduced in the relevant technology. When the LP-WUR of the terminal includes a main communication module and a low power receiving module, one working mode is that the main communication module is used to send and receive mobile communication data, and the low power receiving module is used to receive the wake-up signal. In an energy-saving state, the terminal turns on the low power receiving module to monitor the wake-up signal and turns off all or most of the functions of the main communication module. When downlink data arrives, the network will send a wake-up signal to the terminal; after the terminal monitors the wake-up signal through the low power receiving module, it will trigger the main communication module to enter the working state from the closed or near-closed state, and at this time the low power receiving module enters the closed state from the working state. At present, the terminal usually uses the main receiver to perform neighboring area measurements. In the case of introducing LP-WUR, how to perform neighboring area measurements is a problem that urgently needs to be solved.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the low-power receiver may also be referred to as a low-power wake-up receiver or a near-zero power receiver (Almost Zero Power Wake Up Radio, AZP-WUR), without limitation thereto.

[0050] In the embodiments of the present application, the low power synchronization signal (LP-SS) may also be referred to as the almost zero power synchronization signal (AZP-SS). The low power wake-up signal (LP-WUS) may also be referred to as the almost zero power wake-up signal (AZP-WUS).

[0051] The following, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes in detail the cell measurement method, configuration method, apparatus, terminal, and network-side equipment provided in the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0052] Please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a flowchart of a cell measurement method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method is performed by a terminal. As shown in FIG. 2 , the method includes the following steps:

[0053] Step 21: The terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cells.

[0054] Here, when the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell, LP-WUR can receive the reference signal (RS) in the related technology, or cannot receive the RS in the related technology; it is specifically related to the hardware capability of LP-WUR. The RS in the related technology includes but is not limited to the primary synchronization signal (PSS), the secondary synchronization signal (SSS), the synchronization signal block (SSB), the phase tracking reference signal (TRS), the demodulation reference signal (DMRS), etc.

[0055] The above-mentioned neighboring cell can be understood as a cell configured for the terminal, and the terminal defaults to this cell as a neighboring cell. However, the above-mentioned neighboring cell is not necessarily a physically adjacent cell. In some scenarios, the neighboring cell can also be referred to as a co-frequency / inter-frequency cell other than the serving cell.

[0056] In some embodiments, the aforementioned measurement of the neighboring cell may be performing Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement of the neighboring cell.

[0057] In some embodiments, the neighboring cell measurement may be performed using LP-SS or LP-WUS; or RS in related technologies may be used to perform the neighboring cell measurement.

[0058] In this way, by using LP-WUR to measure neighboring cells, the problem of how to perform neighboring cell measurement when LP-WUR is introduced can be solved.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, the use of LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell includes any of the following:

[0060] 1) Upon receiving the first information, the terminal uses the LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell according to the first information;

[0061] 2) When the terminal does not receive the first information, the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell according to the frequency information or cell information in the first system information block (System Information Block, SIB) and the synchronization signal block measurement timing configuration (SSB Measurement Timing Configuration, SMTC) information. The SMTC information may be the SMTC information associated with the frequency of the neighboring cell to be measured.

[0062] Optionally, the first information may be used to configure how the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure a neighboring cell. The first information may include at least one of the following:

[0063] First indication information corresponding to the first frequency point, the first indication information being used to indicate whether the terminal needs to measure the first frequency point when performing neighboring area measurement using LP-WUR;

[0064] Second indication information corresponding to the first cell, the second indication information being used to indicate whether the terminal needs to measure the first cell when performing neighboring cell measurement using LP-WUR;

[0065] Third indication information corresponding to the second frequency and the second cell, the third indication information being used to indicate whether the terminal needs to measure the second frequency and the second cell when performing neighboring cell measurement using LP-WUR;

[0066] Frequency information or cell information, wherein the frequency information is used to indicate that when the terminal uses LP-WUR to perform neighboring area measurement, the frequency corresponding to the frequency information needs to be measured; the cell information is used to indicate that when the terminal uses LP-WUR to perform neighboring area measurement, the cell corresponding to the cell information needs to be measured;

[0067] SMTC information.

[0068] It should be noted that the first information in the embodiment of the present application can be used in combination with the frequency information, cell information or SMTC information in the first system information block SIB. For example, if the frequency points corresponding to the frequency point information in a certain SIB include frequency point 1, frequency point 2 and frequency point 3, then when the terminal uses LP-WUR to perform neighboring cell measurement, it can indicate whether it is necessary to measure frequency point 1 through the first indication information corresponding to frequency point 1, whether it is necessary to measure frequency point 2 through the first indication information corresponding to frequency point 2, and whether it is necessary to measure frequency point 3 through the first indication information corresponding to frequency point 3, and when the first indication information indicates that measurement is required, LP-WUR is used to measure the corresponding frequency point, otherwise LP-WUR is not used to measure the corresponding frequency point. For another example, if the cells corresponding to the cell information in a certain SIB include cell 1, cell 2, and cell 3, then when the terminal uses LP-WUR to perform neighboring cell measurement, the terminal may indicate whether it is necessary to measure cell 1 through the second indication information corresponding to cell 1, indicate whether it is necessary to measure cell 2 through the second indication information corresponding to cell 2, and indicate whether it is necessary to measure cell 3 through the second indication information corresponding to cell 3. If the second indication information indicates that measurement is required, LP-WUR is used to measure the corresponding cell; otherwise, LP-WUR is not used to measure the corresponding cell. For another example, if the frequency information and cell information in a certain SIB correspond to frequency 4 and cell 4, and to frequency 5 and cell 5, then when the terminal uses LP-WUR to perform neighboring cell measurement, the terminal may indicate whether it is necessary to measure frequency 4 and cell 4 through the third indication information corresponding to frequency 4 and cell 4, and indicate whether it is necessary to measure frequency 5 and cell 5 through the third indication information corresponding to frequency 5 and cell 5. If the third indication information indicates that measurement is required, LP-WUR is used to measure the corresponding frequency and cell; otherwise, LP-WUR is not used to measure the corresponding frequency and cell.

[0069] In some embodiments, when LP-WUR can receive RS in related technologies, first information can be introduced, and the frequency or cell measured using LP-WUS can be indicated with the help of the first information to distinguish the frequency or cell measured using the master receiver (Master Radio, MR).

[0070] In some embodiments, the method for performing neighbor cell measurements using LP-WUR may be determined based on whether the first information is received. For example, if the first information is received, neighbor cell measurements may be performed using LP-WUR based on the first information; and if the first information is not received, neighbor cell measurements may be performed using LP-WUR based on the frequency information or cell information in the first SIB and the SMTC information.

[0071] In some embodiments, when the first information does not include SMTC information, neighboring cell measurement may be performed using the SMTC information in the first SIB.

[0072] Optionally, the first SIB may include at least one of the following: SIB2, SIB3, SIB4, and SIB5. For example, if SIB2 is used, the same-frequency neighbor cell measurement is performed according to the SMTC information configured in SIB2; if SIB3 is used, the measurement is performed according to the same-frequency cell list information in SIB3; if SIB4 is used, the measurement is performed according to the frequency point information and cell information in SIB4; if SIB5 is used, the measurement is performed according to the frequency point information and cell information in SIB5.

[0073] Optionally, the above-mentioned use of LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell according to the first information may include: the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell within the SMTC window according to the first information and the information in the first SIB. The SMTC can be the SMTC in the relevant technology in the current SIB2 / SIB4, or it can be a newly defined SMTC, and there is no limitation on this. In this way, the configured first information and the first SIB can be comprehensively considered to perform neighboring cell measurement, thereby accurately using LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell.

[0074] For example, if the first information includes frequency and cell information as well as SMTC information, the terminal can only use the first information to perform neighboring area measurement after determining the neighboring area information to be measured using LP-WUR based on the first information, such as performing neighboring area measurement within the SMTC window indicated by the SMTC information in the first information.

[0075] For example, if the first information includes first indication information, second indication information or third indication information, the terminal can perform neighboring area measurement within the SMTC window indicated by the first SIB after determining the neighboring area information measured using LP-WUR based on the first information and the frequency / cell information in the first SIB.

[0076] For example, if the first information includes first indication information, second indication information or third indication information, and the first information includes SMTC information, the terminal determines the neighboring area information measured using LP-WUR based on the first information and the frequency and cell information in the first SIB, and then performs neighboring area measurement within the SMTC window indicated by the SMTC information included in the first information.

[0077] For another example, if the first information includes frequency and cell information, after the terminal determines the neighboring cell information to be measured using LP-WUR according to the first information, it can perform neighboring cell measurement within the SMTC window indicated by the first SIB.

[0078] Optionally, the use of LP-WUR to measure a neighboring cell may include:

[0079] When the first condition is met, the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the radio link quality of the neighboring cell according to the information in the first SIB; the first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0080] When the main receiver MR is in the ultra-deep sleep state, the terminal stores valid system information or is able to perform neighbor cell measurement (that is, has the ability to perform neighbor cell measurement);

[0081] When the terminal is in an ultra-deep sleep state, it stores valid system information or can perform neighboring cell measurements.

[0082] The above-mentioned storing of valid system information can be understood as maintaining the system information, that is, storing the system information and receiving new system information when the system information needs to be updated.

[0083] In some embodiments, the first condition may be indicated by a network, predetermined, or agreed upon in an agreement.

[0084] In some embodiments, if the network indicates or the protocol stipulates the first condition, and the terminal's LP-WUR can receive RS in related technologies (such as PSS / SSS / SSB / TRS / DMRS, etc.), the terminal itself / MR is in ultra-deep sleep state. When the neighboring cell evaluation condition is met, the terminal can use LP-WUR to measure the wireless link quality of the neighboring cell based on the current SIB2 / SIB3 / SIB4 / SIB5; otherwise, the terminal does not perform neighboring cell measurements.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, since the accuracy of LP-WUR measurement is poor, a bias value can be introduced to compensate for the LP-WUR measurement result, thereby improving the accuracy of the measurement result.

[0086] Optionally, the cell measurement method may further include:

[0087] The terminal obtains a first offset value, where the first offset value is used to compensate for a cell measurement result measured using the LP-WUR method, thereby obtaining a final cell measurement result measured using the LP-WUR method.

[0088] In some embodiments, the first offset value may be a positive value, ie, to increase the cell measurement result, or a negative value, ie, to decrease the cell measurement result.

[0089] In some embodiments, the unit of the first offset value may be any one of decibel (dB) and decibel milliwatt (dBm).

[0090] In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain the first offset value based on a network instruction, a pre-determination, or a protocol agreement.

[0091] In some embodiments, the cell measurement results measured using LP-WUR may include measurement quantities of the serving cell and the neighboring cell, which may include but are not limited to reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), etc.

[0092] In some embodiments, the first offset value is associated with a specific frequency point, i.e., compensation is performed only on the measurement result of the cell at the specific frequency point according to the first offset value. Alternatively, the first offset value is associated with a specific cell, i.e., compensation is performed only on the measurement result of the specific cell according to the first offset value. Alternatively, the first offset value is associated with a specific frequency point and a specific cell, i.e., compensation is performed only on the measurement result of the specific frequency point and the specific cell according to the first offset value.

[0093] Optionally, the use of LP-WUR to measure a neighboring cell may include:

[0094] The terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell when the second condition is met; the second condition includes at least one of the following:

[0095] A serving cell measurement result obtained using the primary receiver or the low-power receiver is lower than or equal to a first threshold. It is understandable that if the serving cell measurement result is lower than or equal to the first threshold, it means that the radio link quality of the serving cell has deteriorated, and the serving cell is no longer suitable for the terminal to reside in for a long time. Therefore, the terminal needs to measure neighboring cells to find a more suitable cell to reside in.

[0096] The neighboring cell measurement result obtained using the main receiver is higher than or equal to the second threshold; it is understandable that if the main receiver can measure the neighboring cells and the measured neighboring cell quality is higher than or equal to the second threshold, it means that some neighboring cells can become suitable resident cells. In this case, the terminal will use LP-WUR for supplementary measurement of the neighboring cells.

[0097] In this way, with the help of the limitation of the second condition, the LP-WUR of the terminal does not need to measure the neighboring cells all the time. The measurement of the neighboring cells will only be started under certain conditions, thereby reducing the measurement complexity.

[0098] It should be noted that the first threshold and the second threshold can be set based on actual needs. The serving cell measurement result includes at least one of the following: a layer 3 measurement result obtained by a primary receiver measuring SSB, a layer 3 measurement result obtained by a low-power receiver measuring SSB, a measurement result obtained by a low-power receiver measuring LP-SS or LP-WUS, etc. The measurement result includes but is not limited to RSRP, RSRQ, etc.

[0099] In the embodiment of the present application, the cell measurement method further includes:

[0100] The terminal obtains second information, where the second information can be used to configure how the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure neighboring cells. For example, the terminal can receive the second information from a network-side device.

[0101] Optionally, the measuring of the neighboring cell using LP-WUR includes any of the following:

[0102] The terminal uses the LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell based on the second information, where the second information includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0103] (1) Fourth indication information, the fourth indication information is used to indicate any one of the following: whether all neighboring cells measured by the terminal using LP-WUR are synchronized with the serving cell, and whether the same-frequency neighboring cells measured by the terminal using LP-WUR are synchronized with the serving cell.

[0104] Here, the fourth indication information may be for a single terminal, that is, the fourth indication information is per UE. In this case, it is used to indicate whether all neighboring cells measured by the terminal using LP-WUR are synchronized with the serving cell, or whether all neighboring cells measured by the terminal using LP-WUR are synchronized. The fourth indication information may also be for a single frequency, that is, the fourth indication information is per frequency. In this case, it is used to indicate whether the same-frequency neighboring cells measured by the terminal using LP-WUR are synchronized with the serving cell, or whether different frequency points are synchronized.

[0105] Regarding whether it is synchronized with the serving cell, it can be understood that: if it is synchronized, the terminal may not use the SMTC window or the first window for measurement, but directly measure according to the RS configuration of the neighboring cell; if it is synchronized, the terminal may not synchronize precisely with the neighboring cell, but directly measure in the neighboring cell; if it is not synchronized, the terminal needs to synchronize with the neighboring cell first, and then measure according to the RS configuration, otherwise the RS configuration provided by the serving cell may be biased; if it is not synchronized, the terminal may measure the neighboring cell in the first window or the SMTC window.

[0106] (2) third information associated with the third frequency point, the third information including at least one of the following: fifth indication information and information of the fourth frequency point; the fifth indication information is used to indicate whether the cell associated with the third frequency point is synchronized, and the information of the fourth frequency point is used to indicate whether the cell associated with the third frequency point is synchronized with the cell associated with the fourth frequency point.

[0107] Here, when the cell associated with the third frequency point is synchronized with the cell associated with the fourth frequency point, the cells associated with the third frequency point are synchronized with each other, and the cells associated with the fourth frequency point are synchronized with each other.

[0108] In some embodiments, when the second information includes fourth indication information, and the fourth indication information is per frequency, fifth indication information needs to be introduced for other frequencies such as the third frequency to indicate whether the cell associated with the third frequency is synchronized.

[0109] In some embodiments, when configuring the third frequency point, information of the fourth frequency point may be added / set at an associated position of the third frequency point to indicate that a cell associated with the third frequency point is synchronized with a cell associated with the fourth frequency point.

[0110] (3) Information of a fourth cell associated with the third cell, wherein the information of the fourth cell is used to indicate that the third cell is synchronized with the fourth cell.

[0111] In some embodiments, when configuring the third cell, information of the fourth cell may be added / set in an associated position of the third cell to indicate that the third cell is synchronized with the fourth cell.

[0112] (4) Configuration information of LP-SS or LP-WUS; here, it may include only the configuration information of LP-SS, or only the configuration information of LP-WUS, or the configuration information of both LP-SS and LP-WUS.

[0113] (5) Information about the first window, where the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure neighboring cells within the first window. The first window can be understood as the measurement window of LP-SS / LP-WUS.

[0114] In some embodiments, when the LP-WUR cannot receive the RS in the related art, the second information can be introduced, and the LP-WUS can be used to perform neighbor measurement based on the second information. The RS in the related art includes but is not limited to PSS, SSS, SSB, TRS, DMRS, etc.

[0115] Optionally, the LP-SS or LP-WUS configuration information includes: LP-SS or LP-WUS configuration information of a cell associated with the terminal; the configuration information may include but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0116] The identifier of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0117] The LP-SS or LP-WUS period of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0118] The starting position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0119] The starting offset of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0120] The LP-SS or LP-WUS signal sequence of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0121] The monitoring timing of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0122] The monitoring duration of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the cell to which the terminal is associated;

[0123] The monitoring time window of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the cell to which the terminal is associated.

[0124] In this way, with the help of the configuration information of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the cell associated with the terminal, the terminal can accurately use the LP-SS or LP-WUS to perform neighboring cell measurement.

[0125] In some embodiments, the cell associated with the terminal includes a serving cell and a neighboring cell.

[0126] In some embodiments, the cell associated with the terminal includes all cells within the terminal's mobile range, and the terminal's mobile range may include at least one of the following: the terminal's tracking area, the terminal's wireless access network notification area, other protocol-agreed or network-configured areas, etc.

[0127] Optionally, the information in the first window includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0128] The period of the first window;

[0129] The starting position of the first window period;

[0130] The starting offset of the period of the first window;

[0131] The duration of the first window.

[0132] In this way, with the help of the information of the first window, the position of the first window can be accurately determined, thereby improving the accuracy of neighboring area measurement within the first window.

[0133] Optionally, the first window may be related / associated with a frequency point, a cell, or a terminal. When the second information includes information of the first window, the above-mentioned measurement of the neighboring cell using LP-WUR based on the second information may include at least one of the following:

[0134] When the first window is associated with the fifth frequency, the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the cell associated with the fifth frequency within the first window based on the information of the first window. For example, when the first window is associated with a frequency, the terminal measures the frequency within the first window. In this case, the information of the first window needs to be introduced for other frequencies.

[0135] When the first window is associated with the fifth cell, the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the fifth cell within the first window based on the information of the first window. For example, when the first window is associated with a cell, the terminal measures the cell within the first window. In this case, the information of the first window needs to be introduced for each cell to be measured.

[0136] When the first window is associated with the terminal, the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring areas associated with the terminal within the first window based on the information of the first window; for example, when the first window is associated with the terminal, the terminal measures all neighboring areas within the first window, and only one window information needs to be introduced at this time.

[0137] In some embodiments, when the second information includes information of the first window, the configuration information of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the serving cell and the neighboring cell may not be included in the second information, but the neighboring cell measurement may be performed based on the information of the first window.

[0138] It should be noted that when the second information configured by the network side device for the terminal includes the configuration information of LP-SS or LP-WUS, if the network side device determines that all neighboring cells of the terminal are synchronized with the serving cell, then since the first window can be not used for measurement in the synchronous case, the network side device will not configure the first window information for the terminal.

[0139] Optionally, the measuring of the neighboring cell using LP-WUR according to the second information may include:

[0140] When the third condition is met, the terminal uses LP-WUR to measure the neighboring cell according to the second information; the third condition includes at least one of the following:

[0141] The terminal can perform neighboring cell measurements when the main receiver MR is in ultra-deep sleep state;

[0142] When the terminal is in the ultra-deep sleep state, it can perform neighboring cell measurements.

[0143] In some embodiments, the third condition may be indicated by the network, pre-determined, or agreed upon in an agreement.

[0144] In some embodiments, if the network indicates or the protocol stipulates the third condition, and the terminal's LP-WUR cannot receive RS in the related technology (such as PSS / SSS / SSB / TRS / DMRS, etc.), the terminal itself / MR is in ultra-deep sleep state. When the evaluation conditions for neighboring cell measurement (such as the second condition mentioned above) are met, the terminal can perform neighboring cell measurement based on the received second information.

[0145] In an embodiment of the present application, if LP-SS or LP-WUS is configured for a single cell (i.e., per cell), the configuration information of all cells to be measured can be obtained based on the configuration information of the reference cell and the correlation between different cells (such as the correlation between time domain positions), thereby saving configuration signaling overhead.

[0146] Optionally, the cell measurement method further includes:

[0147] The terminal obtains fourth information, where the fourth information includes: time domain locations of LP-SS or LP-WUS between cells associated with the terminal are correlated. For example, the cells associated with the terminal include a serving cell and a neighboring cell; or the cells associated with the terminal include all cells within a mobility range of the terminal, where the mobility range of the terminal includes at least one of the following: a tracking area of ​​the terminal, a radio access network notification area of ​​the terminal, or other areas agreed upon by a protocol or configured by the network.

[0148] In some embodiments, the fourth information may be indicated by the network, pre-determined, or agreed upon by an agreement.

[0149] Optionally, the fourth information may include any one of the following:

[0150] The time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS between the cells associated with the terminal are the same;

[0151] The first time domain position is N times the second offset value or the third offset value from the second time domain position; N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, the first time domain position is the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the seventh cell, the second time domain position is the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell, and the second time domain position is used to determine the time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of other cells associated with the terminal except the sixth cell. Here, the sixth cell can be understood as a reference cell, and the terminal determines the time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of other cells (such as the seventh cell) based on the time domain position and offset information of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell. The seventh cell can be understood as one or more cells other than the sixth cell among the cells associated with the terminal, and the time domain position of its LP-SS or LP-WUS is determined based on the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell, rather than directly configured.

[0152] In this way, by configuring the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of a certain cell (such as the serving cell), the time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of other cells can be directly obtained without having to configure the time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of other cells, thereby saving configuration signaling overhead.

[0153] In some embodiments, the unit of the second offset value or the third offset value may be any one of seconds, milliseconds, system frame number (SFN), subframe, time slot and OFDM symbol.

[0154] In some embodiments, the second bias value or the third bias value may be a positive value or a negative value.

[0155] In some embodiments, the second offset value or the third offset value may be obtained based on a network indication, a pre-determination, or a protocol agreement.

[0156] In some embodiments, the sixth cell and the seventh cell are located within the same object. That is, the time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell and the seventh cell within the same object are N times the second offset value or the third offset value. The object may include, but is not limited to, a frequency point, a target area, etc. The target area may be, for example, a tracking area of ​​the terminal, a radio access network notification area of ​​the terminal, or other areas agreed upon by a protocol or configured by the network.

[0157] Optionally, when acquiring the fourth information, the configuration information of the LP-SS or LP-WUS may include the time domain position (i.e., the second time domain position) of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell and the configuration information of the seventh cell, where the configuration information of the seventh cell includes at least one of the following:

[0159] a third offset value or a positive integer N, where the third offset value or the positive integer N is used to indicate that the time domain positions of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell and the seventh cell are N times the third offset value. For example, the third offset value and the positive integer N may be configured by the network, or the third offset value may be configured by the network and the positive integer N may be pre-determined or agreed upon by protocol, or the positive integer N may be configured by the network and the third offset value may be pre-determined or agreed upon by protocol.

[0160] and seventh indication information, where the seventh indication information is used to indicate whether the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the seventh cell is positively or negatively offset relative to the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell, so as to positively or negatively adjust the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the sixth cell, thereby accurately determining the time domain position of the LP-SS or LP-WUS of the seventh cell.
