Alternatively, the first information is used to indicate the maximum number of beam scans supported by the terminal and the maximum number of sampling supported by the terminal.

[0139] In some embodiments, the maximum number of beam scans refers to the maximum number of beams that a terminal can scan when performing beam scanning. Alternatively, the maximum number of beam scans refers to the maximum number of beams that the terminal supports scanning. Alternatively, the terminal has the capability to perform beam scans up to the maximum number of beam scans.

[0142] In some embodiments, the first information is a capability indication, which can be an enumeration type indication or a bit indication. The capability indication implicitly indicates the maximum number of beam scans supported by the terminal, or the maximum number of sampling supported by the terminal. For example, the terminal sends the first information, indicating that the terminal supports the number of beam scans agreed upon in the protocol, or the number of sampling agreed upon in the protocol.

[0143] In some embodiments, both the number of beam scans and the number of samples will affect the delay when the terminal performs cell measurement. Optionally, the delay refers to the number of configured MOs (Measurement Objects) and the time required to obtain a specific MO measurement result. Optionally, the number of configured MOs is a scaling factor. Optionally, the scaling factor is a CSSF (Carrier Specific Scaling Factor) parameter. Optionally, the time required to obtain a specific MO measurement result is related to the product of the number of beam scans and the number of sampling points. In this regard, it can also be seen that the delay is affected by the number of beam scans and the number of sampling points. In some embodiments, the smaller the number of beam scans, the lower the delay, and the larger the number of beam scans, the higher the delay.

[0144] Optionally, the delay requirement of not requiring a measurement interval in the same frequency is taken as an example for explanation.

[0145] In some embodiments, the maximum value between the first value and the second value is taken as the delay requirement. Optionally, the first value is 600ms (milliseconds), 800ms or other values. Optionally, the second value is the product of the third value, the fourth value and the scaling factor. The third value is a value rounded up based on the product of the delay parameter, the first parameter, the second parameter and the third parameter. The fourth value is the SMTC (SSB Measurement Timing Configuration) period (duration). It should be noted that the DRX (Discontinuous Reception) cycle in this case is 0.

[0146] In some embodiments, the maximum value between the first value and the second value is taken as the delay requirement. Optionally, the first value is 600 ms (milliseconds), 800 ms, or other values. Optionally, the second value is the product of the third value, the fourth value, and the scaling factor. The third value is a value rounded up based on the product of the delay parameter, the first parameter, the second parameter, and the third parameter. The fourth value is the maximum value between the SMTC period and the DRX cycle. It should be noted that the DRX cycle in this case is less than 320 ms.

[0147] In some embodiments, the delay requirement is the product of the third value, the fourth value, and the scaling factor. The third value is a value rounded up based on the product of the delay parameter, the first parameter, the second parameter, and the third parameter. The fourth value is the DRX cycle.

[0151] In some embodiments, the name of the first information is not limited, and can be, for example, a reporting instruction, a first instruction, capability information, etc.

[0152] Step S2102: The network device obtains first information.

[0153] In some embodiments, the network device receives the first information. In some embodiments, the network device receives the first information sent by the terminal. In some embodiments, the network device obtains the first information in other ways.

[0154] In some embodiments, the network device obtains first information specified by a protocol.

[0155] In some embodiments, the network device obtains the first information from a higher layer.

[0156] In some embodiments, the network device performs processing to obtain the first information.

[0157] In some embodiments, step S2102 is omitted, and the network device autonomously implements the function indicated by the first information, or the above function is default or by default.

[0158] In step S2103 , the terminal performs a first measurement on the first measurement object using the first delay parameter to obtain a first measurement result.

[0159] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter is used to indicate a delay requirement for measuring the first measurement object.

[0160] In some embodiments, the delay requirement indicated by the first delay parameter is less than the delay requirement agreed upon by the communication protocol.

[0161] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the first delay parameter is smaller than the delay parameter agreed upon in the communication protocol.

[0162] In some embodiments, the terminal performing the first measurement on the first measurement object includes different processes. Optionally, the terminal performing the first measurement on the first measurement object includes at least one of the following processes:

[0163] PSS (Primary Synchronization Signal) / SSS (Secondary Synchronization Signal) synchronization measurement;

[0164] Get the measurement of the SSB (Synchronization Signal / PBCH Block) index;

[0165] Neighboring cell measurements.

[0166] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter includes delay parameters used in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object. For example, the first delay parameter includes a delay parameter for at least one process of a PSS / SSS synchronization measurement process, a SSB index acquisition measurement process, and a neighboring cell measurement process. It can also be understood that the PSS / SSS synchronization measurement process corresponds to one delay parameter, the SSB index acquisition measurement process corresponds to one delay parameter, and the neighboring cell measurement process corresponds to one delay parameter.

[0167] In some embodiments, different processes for performing the first measurement on the first measurement object use the same delay parameter. Alternatively, different processes for performing the first measurement on the first measurement object use different delay parameters. For example, different processes for performing the first measurement on the first measurement object use different delay parameters, including at least two processes for performing the first measurement on the first measurement object use different delay parameters.

[0168] In some embodiments, different power levels of the terminal correspond to different delay parameters, or different power levels of the terminal correspond to the same delay parameter.

[0169] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter is determined based on at least one of the first beam scanning number and the first sampling point number. Optionally, the first delay parameter is the product of the first beam scanning number and the first sampling point number.

[0170] In some embodiments, the first number of beam scans includes the number of beam scans used in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object; and / or, the first number of sampling points includes the number of sampling points used in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object.

[0171] Optionally, the first beam scan number includes the beam scan number adopted in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object.

[0172] Optionally, the first number of sampling points includes the number of sampling points used in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object.

[0173] Optionally, the first number of beam scans includes the number of beam scans used in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object; and the first number of sampling points includes the number of sampling points used in different processes of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object.

[0174] In some embodiments, the delay requirement determined according to the number of beam scans used in the first process and the number of sampling points used in the first process in the first measurement of the first measurement object is less than the delay requirement agreed upon in the communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0175] Furthermore, the above embodiment can also be understood as that the product of the number of beam scans used in the first process of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object and the number of sampling points used in the first process is less than the delay parameter agreed upon in the communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0176] In some embodiments, the terminal reduces the number of beam scans so that the delay requirement determined by the number of beam scans used in the first process and the number of sampling points used in the first process is less than the delay requirement agreed upon in the communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0177] In some embodiments, the delay requirement determined according to the number of beam scans used in the first process and the number of sampling points used in the first process in the first measurement of the first measurement object is less than the delay requirement agreed upon in the communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0178] In some embodiments, the product of the number of beam scans used in the first process of performing the first measurement on the first measurement object and the number of sampling points used in the first process is less than a delay parameter agreed upon in a communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0179] For example, the terminal performs PSS / SSS synchronization measurements as agreed in the communication protocol. During the subsequent SSB index acquisition (if any) and neighbor cell measurement process, the terminal may use a specific number of beam scans to perform measurements, i.e., reduce the value of the parameter M.

[0180] For example, the terminal performs PSS / SSS synchronization measurement and SSB index acquisition (if any) as agreed in the communication protocol. In the subsequent neighboring cell measurement process, a specific number of beam scans can be used to perform measurement, that is, the value of the parameter M is reduced.

[0181] In some embodiments, the terminal reduces the number of beam scans used in the first process so that the delay requirement determined by the number of beam scans used in the first process and the number of sampling points used in the first process is less than the delay requirement agreed upon in the communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0182] It should be noted that the first process is one or more of the three processes mentioned above.

[0183] In some embodiments, when the second measurement result meets the first condition, a first measurement is performed on the first measurement object using the first delay parameter to obtain the first measurement result; wherein the second measurement result refers to the measurement result of the second measurement performed on the first cell using the second delay parameter before the first measurement is performed on the first measurement object.

[0184] In some embodiments, the first condition corresponds to a first delay parameter, which can also be understood as determining the first delay parameter corresponding to the first condition according to the first condition, and measuring the first measurement object using the first delay parameter.

[0185] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter is determined based on the first number of sampling points, and the first condition corresponds to the first number of sampling points.

[0186] In some embodiments, the terminal scans the first measurement object by reducing the number of sampling points.

[0187] It should be noted that the delay requirement determined by the first number of sampling points determined according to the first condition corresponding to the first process and the number of beam scans used in the first process in the first measurement of the first measurement object is less than the delay requirement agreed upon by the communication protocol corresponding to the first process.

[0188] In some embodiments, the terminal scans the first measurement object by reducing the number of sampling points in the first process.

[0189] It should be noted that the first conditions corresponding to different processes may be the same or different.

[0190] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after determining the first delay parameter, the terminal may measure the first cell based on the determined first delay parameter to obtain a first measurement result.

[0191] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter refers to a parameter sampled by the terminal when performing cell measurement.

[0192] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter includes at least one of the number of beam scans and the number of sampling points.

[0193] Optionally, the first delay parameter includes the number of beam scans, or the number of sampling points, or the number of beam scans and the number of sampling points.

[0194] In some embodiments, the first delay parameter may be determined by the terminal itself, or configured by a network device, or agreed upon by a communication protocol.

[0195] In some embodiments, if the first delay parameter includes the number of beam scans, the number of sampling points adopts a default value. Alternatively, if the first delay parameter includes the number of sampling points, the number of beam scans adopts a default value.

[0196] In some embodiments, the name of the first delay parameter is not limited, and can be, for example, a measurement indicator, a parameter indicator, etc.

[0197] In some embodiments, the first cell includes a neighboring cell. The neighboring cell may be an NR neighboring cell, an LTE neighboring cell, or other neighboring cell, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0198] In some embodiments, the cell measurement performed by the terminal refers to cell measurement based on FR2 (Frequency range 2). Optionally, the frequency range of FR2 is 24 GHz to 52 GHz.

[0199] In some embodiments, RRM measurements in the FR2 band require ultra-long delays, mainly because beam-based measurements need to consider beam scanning issues.

[0200] In some embodiments, when the terminal measures the first cell according to the first delay parameter, certain requirements are also imposed on the first delay parameter.

[0201] Optionally, the number of beam scans is less than a first value, and the first value is used to indicate the maximum number of beam scans supported by the terminal.

[0202] Optionally, the maximum number of beam scans supported by the terminal can also be understood as the number of beam scans used by the terminal by default. If the number of beam scans in the first delay parameter used by the terminal is less than the maximum number of beam scans, it can be determined that the delay for the terminal to perform cell measurement is reduced.

[0203] Optionally, the first value is 2, 4, 6 or other values, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0204] Optionally, the number of sampling points is smaller than a second value, and the second value is used to indicate a maximum number of sampling points supported by the terminal.

[0205] Optionally, the maximum number of sampling points supported by the terminal can also be understood as the number of sampling points used by the terminal by default. If the number of sampling points in the first delay parameter used by the terminal is less than the maximum number of sampling points, it can be determined that the delay of the terminal performing cell measurement is reduced.

[0206] Optionally, the second value is 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 or other values, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0207] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal measures the first cell, including at least one of the following:

[0208] (1) Measurement of PSS / SSS synchronization.

[0209] (2) Obtain a measurement of the SSB index.

[0210] (3) Measurement of neighboring cells.

[0211] In some embodiments, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes the above three processes, and the above three processes are executed sequentially from front to back, which can be understood as the delay of the terminal measuring the first cell guarantees the delay of the above three processes.

[0212] Among them, different processes of measuring the first cell all involve the number of beam scans and the number of sampling points, and for different measurement processes, there are different requirements for the number of beam scans and the number of sampling points used.

[0213] In some embodiments, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal in different processes of measuring the first cell is different, or the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal in different processes of measuring the first cell is the same.

[0214] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes the above three processes, and the number of beam scans used in different processes of measuring the first cell is different. For example, the number of beam scans used by the terminal when executing processes (1) and (2) is the same, and the number of beam scans used by the terminal when executing process (3) is different. For another example, the number of beam scans used by the terminal when executing processes (1), (2), and (3) are all different.

[0215] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes two of the above three processes, and the number of beam scans adopted in different processes of measuring the first cell is different. For example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal when executing the two processes (1) and (2) is different. For another example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal when executing the two processes (2) and (3) is different. For another example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal when executing the two processes (1) and (3) is different.

[0216] Optionally, the process of measuring a cell by the terminal includes the above three processes, and the number of beam scans adopted in different processes of measuring the first cell is the same. For example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal when executing the three processes (1), (2), and (3) is the same.

[0217] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes two of the above three processes, and the number of beam scans adopted in the different processes of measuring the first cell is the same. For example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal in executing the two processes (1) and (2) is the same. For another example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal in executing the two processes (2) and (3) is the same. For another example, the number of beam scans adopted by the terminal in executing the two processes (1) and (3) is the same.

[0218] In some embodiments, different processes of measuring the first cell by terminals of different power levels correspond to different numbers of beam scans. Alternatively, different processes of measuring the first cell by terminals of different maximum transmit powers correspond to different numbers of beam scans.

[0219] In some embodiments, terminals with different power levels may use different numbers of beam scans to measure the first cell. Alternatively, terminals with different maximum transmit powers may use different numbers of beam scans to measure the first cell.

[0220] Optionally, different power levels correspond to different maximum transmit powers supported by the terminal.

[0221] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present disclosure is described by taking the example of different numbers of beam scans corresponding to different processes of measuring the first cell by terminals of different power levels. In another embodiment, the number of beam scans corresponding to different processes of measuring the first cell by terminals of different power levels is the same.

[0222] In some embodiments, the second measurement result of the reference signal measured by the terminal satisfies a boundary condition, and the first measurement result is obtained by measuring the first cell according to the number of sampling points.

[0223] Optionally, the boundary condition refers to a condition for the terminal to determine the number of sampling points. In addition, the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the name of the boundary condition. For example, it can be a sampling condition, a judgment condition, etc.

[0224] Optionally, the second measurement result is earlier than the first measurement result. It can also be understood that the terminal measures the first cell to obtain the second measurement result and then measures the first cell to obtain the first measurement result.

[0225] In some embodiments, the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result, that is, the terminal uses the number of sampling points to perform measurement to obtain a measurement result, and when the measurement result meets the boundary conditions, it is determined that the measurement result is valid (ie, the first measurement result).

[0226] In some embodiments, the boundary condition refers to the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) of the reference signal being no less than a SINR threshold. Optionally, the SINR threshold is set by a network device, agreed upon by a communication protocol, or determined in other ways, which is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0227] For example, the signal to interference plus noise ratio threshold is -6dB, -4dB, or other values.

[0228] In some embodiments, if the second measurement result of the reference signal meets the boundary condition, the first cell is measured according to the number of sampling points corresponding to the boundary condition to obtain the first measurement result.

[0229] Optionally, the boundary condition corresponds to the number of sampling points. If the terminal determines that the second measurement result of the reference signal meets the boundary condition, the number of sampling points corresponding to the boundary condition is obtained, and then the first cell is measured according to the number of sampling points.

[0230] In some embodiments, different processes of measuring the first cell correspond to different boundary conditions.

[0231] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes the above three processes, and different processes of measuring the first cell correspond to different boundary conditions. For example, the boundary conditions adopted by the terminal when executing processes (1) and (2) are the same, but different from the boundary conditions adopted by process (3). For another example, the boundary conditions adopted by the terminal when executing processes (1), (2), and (3) are all different.

[0232] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes two of the three processes mentioned above, and different processes of measuring the first cell correspond to different boundary conditions. For example, the boundary conditions adopted by the terminal in executing processes (1) and (2) are different. For another example, the boundary conditions adopted by the terminal in executing processes (2) and (3) are different. For another example, the boundary conditions adopted by the terminal in executing processes (1) and (3) are different.

[0233] In some embodiments, different processes of measuring the first cell correspond to the same boundary conditions.

[0234] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring a cell includes the above three processes, and different processes of measuring the first cell correspond to the same boundary conditions. For example, the boundary conditions used by the terminal to execute the three processes (1), (2), and (3) are all the same.

[0235] Optionally, the process of the terminal measuring the first cell includes two of the three processes mentioned above, and the different processes of measuring the first cell correspond to the same boundary conditions.
