Description

Beam measurement reporting method and device Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communications. Background Art

[0002] As low-frequency spectrum resources become scarce, millimeter-wave (mmWave) bands offer greater bandwidth, making them a crucial frequency band for 5G New Radio (5G NR) systems. Due to their shorter wavelengths, mmWaves exhibit different propagation characteristics than traditional low-frequency bands, such as higher propagation loss and poor reflection and diffraction performance. Therefore, larger antenna arrays are typically employed to form shaped beams with greater gain, overcome propagation loss, and ensure system coverage. The 5G NR standard incorporates a series of beam management solutions, including beam scanning, beam measurement, beam reporting, and beam indication. However, a large number of transmit and receive beams significantly increases system load and latency.

[0003] With the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, applying it to the physical layer of wireless communications to address the difficulties of traditional methods has become a current technical trend. For beam management, using AI models to predict the optimal spatial beam (pair) based on a small number of beam measurements can significantly reduce system load and latency.

[0004] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is merely intended to provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions of this application and facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art. Simply because these solutions are described in the background technology section of this application, it should not be assumed that the above technical solutions are well known to those skilled in the art.

[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0006] The inventors found that when the AI ​​model is used to predict the simulated beam (pair) in the spatial or time domain, data needs to be collected to train the AI ​​model before the model is deployed. In addition, when the communication environment changes and the working model cannot adapt to the changes in the environment, it is necessary to collect data again to fine-tune or retrain the model. When the AI ​​model is trained on the network side, the data collection process can be: the network device configures a reference signal set for the terminal, the terminal measures the L1-RSRP (layer 1 reference signal received power) of each reference signal in the reference signal set, and then generates a measurement report and sends it to the network device, wherein a reporting instance includes one or more reporting quantities, wherein the reporting quantity includes at least the measurement quantity (L1-RSRP) of the reference signal in the reference signal set, and may also include the reference signal resource indication (CRI: CSI-RS resource indicator / SSB-RI: SSB resource indicator) corresponding to the measurement quantity (L1-RSRP).

[0007] However, affected by the wireless channel (such as fading in the time domain, frequency domain, and spatial domain) and the non-ideal factors of the device (such as the non-ideal characteristics of the radio frequency), the quality of the L1-RSRP of the reference signal measured by the terminal device under different conditions is different. For example, when the SINR (Signal Interference Noise Ratio) is relatively low, the noise will affect the absolute accuracy and relative accuracy of the measurement quantity. For another example, when the terminal device uses a spatial domain receiving filter (i.e., receiving beam) with different parameters to measure the L1-RSRP, the non-ideal characteristics of the terminal device's radio frequency link will affect the relative accuracy of the measurement quantity. For another example, due to the time-selective fading of the channel, the L1-RSRP obtained by the terminal device measuring the reference signal at different reference signal transmission time instances reflects different channel characteristics.

[0008] Measurements of varying quality can impact the performance of AI models. For example, a model trained using L1-RSRP measured under high SINR conditions as label data and input does not guarantee performance in low SINR scenarios. For another example, if a model is trained using L1-RSRP measured using spatial receive filters with identical parameters as label data and input, and the input L1-RSRP is derived from measurements of spatial receive filters with different parameters during inference, the AI ​​model's prediction performance will significantly deteriorate. For another example, if a model is trained using L1-RSRP measured at the same reference signal transmission time instance as label data and input, and the input L1-RSRP is derived from measurements at different reference signal transmission time instances during inference, the AI ​​model's prediction performance will also deteriorate. On the other hand, if the model is trained using measurements of varying quality, the complexity of the model will increase accordingly if the model is expected to achieve the same performance.

[0066] Embodiments of the first aspect

[0067] This embodiment of the present application provides a method for beam measurement reporting, which is described from the perspective of a network device. FIG1 is a schematic diagram of the beam measurement reporting method of an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG1 , the method includes:

[0068] 110: The network device sends first measurement report configuration information to the terminal device, where the first measurement report configuration information includes at least one of the following information: quality information related to the first channel measurement; spatial information related to the first channel measurement; and time information related to the first channel measurement;

[0069] 120: The network device receives a first report generated and sent by the terminal device based on the first measurement report configuration information.

[0070] It is worth noting that FIG1 above only schematically illustrates an embodiment of the present application, and the present application is not limited thereto. For example, other operations may be added or some operations may be reduced. Those skilled in the art may make appropriate modifications based on the above content, and are not limited to the description of FIG1 above.

[0071] According to the above embodiment, the network device puts forward requirements on the quality of the report quantity reported by the terminal device through the first measurement report configuration information, so that the terminal device only reports the report quantity that meets its requirements. As a result, the data collected by the network device for model training (the above-mentioned first report) meets its requirements. When the network device uses these data to train the model, it can ensure that the model has better performance and lower complexity.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present application, the first report may include one or more reporting quantities, each reporting quantity including at least the L1-RSRP of the reference signal and / or the reference signal resource indicator (CRI: CSI-RS resource indicator / SSB-RI: SSB resource indicator) corresponding to the L1-RSRP.

[0073] In some embodiments, the quality information related to the first channel measurement is a first threshold value, which is used to indicate channel conditions during the channel measurement. The terminal device obtains a value of the measurement quantity by measuring a reference signal and calculating a default or predefined measurement quantity. If the obtained value of the measurement quantity is greater than the first threshold value, the terminal device includes the reported quantity under the current channel conditions in the first report.

[0074] In the above embodiment, affected by the wireless channel, the channel conditions for the terminal device to measure L1-RSRP are different. For data collection of the network-side AI model, the network device configures a threshold value for the first report (beam measurement report) of the terminal device, which is called the first threshold value.

[0075] In the above embodiment, the network device is configured with only a first threshold value, and the measurement quantity corresponding to the first threshold value is given by default or predefined. For example, the measurement quantity corresponding to the first threshold value is SINR by default. The terminal device measures and calculates the value of the measurement quantity SINR, compares this value with the first threshold, and when this value is greater than the first threshold value, includes the corresponding report quantity under the channel condition in the first report and reports it to the network device; otherwise, that is, when the value is not greater than the first threshold, the corresponding report quantity under the channel condition is not included in the first report.

[0076] In the above embodiment, the measurement quantity may be SINR, RSRP, or RSRQ, etc. The value of the measurement quantity may be obtained by measuring and calculating a reference signal. The reference signal may be SSB or CSI-RS, etc. This application does not limit the specific calculation method, which may be determined by the implementation algorithm of the terminal device.

[0077] In the above embodiment, the unit of the first threshold value may be dB, and the data type may be an integer. This application does not impose any restrictions on its value range, number of quantization bits, step size, etc.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the first threshold value configured by the network device is optional. When not configured, the terminal device may include the reported quantities obtained by measuring all reference signals in the reference signal set in the first report without making any selection.

[0079] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device only reports the reporting amount that meets the first threshold value, which meets the needs of the network device. When the network device uses the data reported by the terminal device to train the model, the high performance and low complexity of the model are guaranteed.

[0080] In other embodiments, the quality information related to the first channel measurement is a second threshold value and a corresponding measurement quantity, where the second threshold value and the corresponding measurement quantity are used to indicate channel conditions during the channel measurement. The terminal device obtains a value of the measurement quantity by measuring a reference signal and calculating the measurement quantity. If the value of the measurement quantity is greater than the second threshold value, the terminal device includes the reported quantity under the current channel conditions in the first report.

[0081] In the above embodiment, affected by the wireless channel, the channel conditions for the terminal device to measure L1-RSRP are different. For data collection of the network-side AI model, the network device configures a threshold value and a corresponding measurement amount for the first report (beam measurement report) of the terminal device, which are called the second threshold value and the corresponding measurement amount.

[0082] In the above embodiment, the network device is configured with a second threshold value and a corresponding measurement quantity. The terminal device obtains the value of the measurement quantity by measuring and calculating the measurement quantity according to the configuration of the network device, and compares the value of the measurement quantity with the second threshold value. When the value of the measurement quantity is greater than the second threshold, the corresponding report quantity under the current channel conditions is included in the first report and reported to the network device; otherwise, that is, when the value of the measurement quantity is not greater than the second threshold, the corresponding report quantity under the channel conditions is not included in the first report.

[0083] In the above embodiment, the measurement quantity may be SINR, RSRP, or RSRQ, etc. The value of the measurement quantity may be obtained by measuring and calculating a reference signal. The reference signal may be SSB or CSI-RS, etc. This application does not limit the specific calculation method, which may be determined by the implementation algorithm of the terminal device.

[0084] In the above embodiment, the unit of the second threshold value may be dB, and the data type may be an integer. This application does not impose any restrictions on its value range, number of quantization bits, step size, etc.

[0085] In the above embodiment, the second threshold value and the corresponding measurement amount configured by the network device are optional. When not configured, the terminal device can include the reported amounts obtained from measuring all reference signals in the reference signal set in the first report without making any selection.

[0086] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device reports the reporting quantity corresponding to the measurement quantity specified by the network device that meets the second threshold value, which meets the needs of the network device. When the network device uses the data reported by the terminal device to train the model, it ensures the high performance and low complexity of the model.

[0087] In some further embodiments, the quality information related to the first channel measurement is a first offset value, which is used to indicate an offset value condition during channel measurement. The terminal device uses the largest L1-RSRP among the reported amounts included in the first report as a reference value, compares the L1-RSRP value corresponding to a reference signal with a reference value obtained by subtracting the offset value from the reference value, and includes the reported amount corresponding to the reference signal in the first report when the L1-RSRP value corresponding to the reference signal is greater than the reference value.

[0088] In the above embodiment, affected by the wireless channel, the channel conditions for the terminal device to measure L1-RSRP are different. For data collection of the network-side AI model, the network device configures an offset value for the first report (beam measurement report) of the terminal device, which is called the first offset value.

[0089] In the above embodiment, the network device is configured with the first offset value, and the terminal device can use the largest L1-RSRP in the reported amount as the reference value. When the L1-RSRP of a reference signal is greater than the reference value minus the above first offset value, the terminal device includes the reported amount corresponding to the reference signal in the first report; otherwise, the terminal device does not include the reported amount corresponding to the reference signal in the first report.

[0090] In the above embodiment, the unit of the first offset value may be dB, and the data type may be an integer. This application does not impose any restrictions on its value range, number of quantization bits, step size, etc.

[0091] In the above embodiment, the offset value configured by the network device is optional. When the offset value is not configured, the terminal device can include the reported amounts obtained by measuring all reference signals in the reference signal set in the first report without making any selection.

[0092] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device reports the reporting amount that meets the offset value condition, which meets the needs of the network device. When the network device uses the data reported by the terminal device to train the model, it ensures the high performance and low complexity of the model.

[0093] The above description is based on the example of the network device configuring the first threshold value or the second threshold value and the corresponding measurement amount or the first offset value. The present application is not limited to this. The above embodiments can be combined with the embodiments. For example, in some embodiments, the network device can configure both the threshold value (the first threshold value or the second threshold value and the corresponding measurement amount) and the offset value (the first offset value). Thus, the terminal device can measure and calculate the value of the measurement amount (default or predefined or configured by the network device), first compare the value with the threshold value (the first threshold value or the second threshold value), and when it is greater than the threshold value, use the configured offset value to include the report amount that meets the offset value condition in the first report. The specific implementation method is as described above and will not be repeated here.

[0094] In some further embodiments, the spatial domain information related to the above-mentioned first channel measurement includes at least the limitation of the spatial domain reception filter, and the limitation of the spatial domain reception filter is used to indicate whether the terminal device will include the reported amount obtained by measuring the reference signal through the spatial domain reception filters with different parameters in the first report.

[0095] In the above embodiment, when measuring L1-RSRP, the terminal device may use spatial receive filters with different parameters for measurement. For data collection by the network-side AI model, the network device configures spatial receive filter restrictions for the terminal device's first report to indicate whether the terminal device includes the reported amount measured by the spatial receive filters with different parameters in the first report.

[0096] In the above embodiment, the data type of the constraint condition can be an enumeration type. For example, when the constraint condition is configured to be enabled (enable) or configured (configured), the terminal device is instructed to include the reported amount measured by the spatial domain reception filter with the same parameters in the first report; when the constraint condition is configured to be disabled (disable) or not configured (not configured), the terminal device is instructed to include the reported amount measured by the spatial domain reception filter with different parameters in the first report. The reverse is also possible.

[0097] Thus, when the spatial receive filter restriction is configured to be enabled or configured, the terminal device includes in the first report the reported amount obtained by measuring the reference signal through a spatial receive filter with the same parameters; when the spatial receive filter restriction is configured to be disabled or not configured, the terminal device includes in the first report the reported amount obtained by measuring the reference signal through a spatial receive filter with different parameters. Alternatively, when the spatial receive filter restriction is configured to be enabled or configured, the terminal device includes in the first report the reported amount obtained by measuring the reference signal through a spatial receive filter with different parameters; when the spatial receive filter restriction is configured to be disabled or not configured, the terminal device includes in the first report the reported amount obtained by measuring the reference signal through a spatial receive filter with the same parameters.

[0098] In the above embodiment, the data type of the constraint condition can also be a Boolean type. For example, a 1-bit Boolean data type is used to represent the constraint condition. When the value is 1, it instructs the terminal device to include the reported amount measured by using spatial receive filters with the same parameters in the first report; when the value is 0, it instructs the terminal device to include the reported amount measured by using spatial receive filters with different parameters in the first report. The reverse is also possible.

[0099] In the above embodiment, the restriction condition of the spatial reception filter configured by the network device is optional. When the restriction condition is not configured, the terminal device can include the report amount measured by the spatial reception filter with the same parameters in the first report, or include the report amount measured by the spatial reception filter with different parameters in the first report.

[0100] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device reports a reporting amount that meets the restriction conditions of the spatial reception filter, which meets the requirements of the network device. When the network device uses the data reported by the terminal device to train the model, it ensures the high performance and low complexity of the model.

[0101] In some further embodiments, the time information related to the above-mentioned first channel measurement includes at least a restriction on the channel measurement time instance, and the restriction on the channel measurement time instance is used to indicate whether the terminal device will include the reporting amount measured at different reference signal sending time instances in the first report.

[0102] In the above embodiment, when the terminal device reports the L1-RSRP it measures, the L1-RSRP it measures may come from different reference signal transmission time instances. For example: the reference signal in the reference signal set is configured as periodic, and the report is also configured as periodic, but the reporting period is greater than (a multiple of) the reference signal transmission period. At this time, in one reporting period, the terminal device can measure multiple measurement values ​​for each reference signal, corresponding to multiple reference signal transmission time instances, that is, multiple transmission periods. Therefore, the network device can configure the channel measurement time instance restriction for the first report of the terminal device to indicate whether the terminal device will include the reporting amount measured at different reference signal transmission time instances in the first report.

[0103] In the above embodiment, the data type of the constraint condition may be an enumeration type. For example, when the constraint condition is configured to be enabled (enable) or configured (configured), it instructs the terminal device to include the reported amount measured at the same reference signal transmission time instance in the first report; when the constraint condition is configured to be disabled (disable) or not configured (not configured), it instructs the terminal device to include the reported amount measured at different reference signal transmission time instances in the first report. The reverse is also possible.

[0104] Thus, when the restriction of the channel measurement time instance is configured to be enabled or configured, the terminal device includes the report amount measured at the same reference signal transmission time instance in the first report; when the restriction of the channel measurement time instance is configured to be disabled or not configured, the terminal device includes the report amount measured at different reference signal transmission time instances in the first report. Alternatively, when the restriction of the channel measurement time instance is configured to be enabled or configured, the terminal device includes the report amount measured at different reference signal transmission time instances in the first report; when the restriction of the channel measurement time instance is configured to be disabled or not configured, the terminal device includes the report amount measured at the same reference signal transmission time instance in the first report.

[0105] In the above embodiment, the data type of the constraint condition can also be a Boolean type. For example, a 1-bit Boolean data type is used to represent the constraint condition. When the value is 1, it instructs the terminal device to include the reported amount measured at the same reference signal transmission time instance in the first report; when the value is 0, it instructs the terminal device to include the reported amount measured at different reference signal transmission time instances in the first report. The reverse is also possible.

[0106] In the above embodiment, if the reference signal used for beam measurement is a periodic or semi-persistent CSI-RS, then one transmission time instance of the reference signal is one transmission period of the reference signal. If the reference signal used for beam measurement is an aperiodic CSI-RS, then one transmission time instance of the reference signal is one transmission occasion of the reference signal. Furthermore, if the reference signal used for beam measurement is an SSB, then one transmission time instance of the reference signal is one half-frame.

[0107] In the above embodiment, the restriction condition of the channel measurement time instance configured by the network device is optional. When the restriction condition is not configured, the terminal device can include the reporting amount measured at the same reference signal sending time instance in the first report, or include the reporting amount measured at different reference signal sending time instances in the first report.

[0108] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device reports the reporting amount that meets the restriction condition of the channel measurement time instance, which meets the requirements of the network device. When the network device trains the model using the data reported by the terminal device, the high performance and low complexity of the model are guaranteed.

[0109] The above embodiments are merely exemplary of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Appropriate modifications may be made based on the above embodiments. For example, the above embodiments may be used alone, or one or more of the above embodiments may be combined.

As a result, the network device can process the data differently according to the auxiliary information and then use it to train the AI ​​model.

[0129] It is worth noting that FIG4 above only schematically illustrates an embodiment of the present application, and the present application is not limited thereto. For example, other operations may be added or some operations may be reduced. Those skilled in the art may make appropriate modifications based on the above content, and are not limited to the description of FIG4 above.

[0130] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device provides corresponding auxiliary information on the data quality in the second report. The network device further processes the data according to the auxiliary information and then uses it to train the model, thereby reducing the complexity of the model or improving the performance of the model.

[0131] In an embodiment of the present application, different from the first measurement report configuration information, the second measurement report configuration information may include the reference signal set associated with the second report, the reporting amount, the reporting type (periodic, non-periodic, event-triggered), etc., and specific reference may be made to relevant technologies.

[0132] In some embodiments, the quality information related to the second channel measurement includes at least one of the following: a third threshold value; a fourth threshold value and a corresponding measurement value; and a second offset value.

[0133] In the above embodiment, the third threshold value is used to indicate the channel conditions when measuring a group or all reported quantities in the second report. The third threshold value may be one or more. When there is one third threshold value, the third threshold value corresponds to all reported quantities in the second report. When there are multiple third threshold values, each third threshold value corresponds to a group of reported quantities in the second report.

[0134] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of an example of a second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in Figure 5, in this example, in addition to SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes a channel condition (SINR threshold value, denoted as "SINR", that is, the aforementioned third threshold value, where it is assumed that SINR is a default or predefined measurement quantity) for indicating the channel conditions when the four L1-RSRPs in the second report are measured, that is, the four L1-RSRPs are measured under the channel conditions where the measurement quantity SINR is greater than the SINR threshold value. Among them, the measurement quantity defaults to or is predefined to use SINR. This application does not impose any restrictions on the number of reported quantities in the second report and the quantization method of L1-RSRP.

[0135] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of another example of the second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in Figure 6, in this example, in addition to SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes two channel conditions (SINR threshold values, denoted as "SINR#1" and "SINR#2", that is, the aforementioned third threshold value, assuming here that SINR is a default or predefined measurement quantity), which respectively correspond to a group (two) of reporting quantities that follow. Among them, SINR#1 is used to indicate the channel conditions when L1-RSRP#1 and L1-RSRP#2 are measured, and SINR#2 is used to indicate the channel conditions when L1-RSRP#3 and L1-RSRP#4 are measured.

[0136] In the above embodiment, the fourth threshold value and the corresponding measurement quantity are used to indicate the channel conditions when measuring a group or all of the reported quantities in the second report. The fourth threshold value may correspond to one or more measurement quantities. When the fourth threshold value corresponds to one measurement quantity, the fourth threshold value and the corresponding measurement quantity correspond to all of the reported quantities in the second report. When the fourth threshold value corresponds to multiple measurement quantities, the measurement quantity corresponding to each fourth threshold value corresponds to a group of reported quantities in the second report.

As shown in FIG7 , in this example, in addition to including SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes a channel condition, namely, a fourth threshold value and a corresponding measurement quantity, to indicate the channel conditions of the four L1-RSRPs in the second report at the time of measurement, namely, the four L1-RSRPs are measured under channel conditions where the measurement quantity (SINR, RSRP, or RSRQ) is greater than the fourth threshold value. This application does not impose any restrictions on the number of reported quantities in the second report or the quantization method of L1-RSRP.

[0138] FIG8 is a schematic diagram of another example of a second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in FIG8 , in this example, in addition to including SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes two channel conditions, namely, a fourth threshold value and its corresponding measurement quantity #1, and a fourth threshold value and its corresponding measurement quantity #2, which correspond to a set (two) of reporting quantities that follow. The fourth threshold value and its corresponding measurement quantity #1 are used to indicate that L1-RSRP#1 and L1-RSRP#2 were measured under these channel conditions; the fourth threshold value and its corresponding measurement quantity #2 are used to indicate that L1-RSRP#3 and L1-RSRP#4 were measured under these channel conditions.

[0139] In the aforementioned embodiments, the measurement quantity may include SINR, RSRP or RSRQ, and the measurement quantity is obtained by the terminal device by measuring and calculating the reference signal. The reference signal may be SSB or CSI-RS. For details, please refer to the embodiment of the first aspect.

[0140] In the above embodiment, the second offset value is used to indicate the offset value condition when measuring a group or all reported quantities in the second report. The second offset value may be one or more. When there is one second offset value, the second offset value corresponds to all reported quantities in the second report. When there are multiple second offset values, each second offset value corresponds to a group of reported quantities in the second report.

[0141] In the above embodiment, similar to the first offset value, the reference value corresponding to the second offset value may be the maximum L1-RSRP among all reported amounts in the second report, or the maximum L1-RSRP among a group of reported amounts in the second report.

[0142] FIG9 is a schematic diagram of an example of a second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in FIG9 , in this example, in addition to including SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes an offset value (offset), which is used to indicate the offset value condition when measuring the four L1-RSRPs in the second report, that is, L1-RSRP#2 / 3 / 4 meets the condition that their values ​​are greater than L1-RSRP#1 minus the offset value (here assuming that L1-RSRP#1 is the reference). The present application does not impose any restrictions on the number of reported quantities in the second report or the quantization method of L1-RSRP.

[0143] FIG10 is a diagram illustrating another example of a second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in FIG10 , in this example, in addition to the SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes two offset values, offset#1 and offset#2, corresponding to a set of two reported values ​​that follow. L1-RSRP#1 and L1-RSRP#2 satisfy the offset value condition offset#1, i.e., L1-RSRP#2 is greater than L1-RSRP#1 minus the offset value (assuming the baseline value is L1-RSRP#1). L1-RSRP#3 and L1-RSRP#4 satisfy the offset value condition offset#2, that is, L1-RSRP#3 / 4 satisfies the condition that its value is greater than L1-RSRP#1 minus the offset value offset#2 (the reference value is the largest L1-RSRP among all reported amounts, that is, L1-RSRP#1). Alternatively, L1-RSRP#4 can satisfy the condition that its value is greater than L1-RSRP#3 minus the offset value offset#2 (the reference value is the largest L1-RSRP among a group of reported amounts, that is, L1-RSRP#3).

[0144] In some embodiments, the spatial information related to the second channel measurement includes at least a status indication of a spatial reception filter; the status indication of the spatial reception filter is used to indicate whether a group or all of the reported quantities in the second report are measured by spatial reception filters with different parameters.

[0145] In the above embodiment, the number of status indications of the spatial reception filter may be one or more; when the number of status indications of the spatial reception filter is one, the status indication of the spatial reception filter corresponds to all reported quantities in the second report; when the number of status indications of the spatial reception filter is multiple, the status indication of each spatial reception filter corresponds to a group of reported quantities in the second report.

[0146] FIG11 is a schematic diagram of an example of a second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in FIG11 , in this example, in addition to including SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes a spatial receive filter status indicator, which is used to indicate whether the four L1-RSRPs in the second report were measured using spatial receive filters with different parameters. It is worth noting that FIG11 is merely an example, and this application does not impose any restrictions on the number of reported quantities in the second report or the quantification method.

[0147] FIG12 is a schematic diagram of another example of the second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in FIG12 , in this example, in addition to SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes two spatial reception filter status indications, namely spatial reception filter status indication #1 and spatial reception filter status indication #2, which correspond to a group (two) of reporting quantities following them. Among them, spatial reception filter status indication #1 is used to indicate whether L1-RSRP#1 and L1-RSRP#2 are measured by spatial reception filters with different parameters, and spatial reception filter status indication #2 is used to indicate whether L1-RSRP#3 and L1-RSRP#4 are measured by spatial reception filters with different parameters. The values ​​of the two spatial reception filter status indications in FIG12 can be the same or different.

[0148] In one example, when the terminal device sets the spatial reception filter status indication to enabled, it indicates that a group or all reported quantities contained in the second report are measured by spatial reception filters with the same parameters; when the terminal device sets the spatial reception filter status indication to disabled, it indicates that a group or all reported quantities contained in the second report are measured by spatial reception filters with different parameters.

[0149] In another example, when the terminal device sets the spatial reception filter status indication to enabled, it indicates that a group or all reported quantities contained in the second report are measured by spatial reception filters with different parameters; when the terminal device sets the spatial reception filter status indication to disabled, it indicates that a group or all reported quantities contained in the second report are measured by spatial reception filters with the same parameters.

[0150] In some embodiments, the time information related to the second channel measurement includes at least a status indication of the channel measurement time instance; the status indication of the channel measurement time instance is used to indicate whether a group or all of the reporting quantities contained in the second report are measured at different reference signal sending time instances.

[0151] In the above embodiment, the number of status indications of the channel measurement time instance can be one or more; when the number of status indications of the channel measurement time instance is one, the status indication of the channel measurement time instance corresponds to all reported quantities in the second report; when the number of status indications of the channel measurement time instance is multiple, the status indication of each channel measurement time instance corresponds to a group of reported quantities in the second report.

[0152] FIG13 is a schematic diagram of an example of a second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in FIG13 , in this example, in addition to including the SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes a channel measurement time instance status indicator, which is used to indicate whether the four L1-RSRPs in the second report were measured at different reference signal transmission time instances. It is worth noting that FIG13 is merely an example, and this application does not impose any restrictions on the number of reported quantities in the second report or the quantization method.

[0153] Figure 14 is a schematic diagram of another example of the second report according to the above embodiment. As shown in Figure 14, in this example, in addition to SSB-RI / CRI and L1-RSRP, the second report also includes two channel measurement time instance status indications, namely channel measurement time instance status indication #1 and channel measurement time instance status indication #2, which respectively correspond to a group (two) of reporting quantities following them. Among them, channel measurement time instance status indication #1 is used to indicate whether L1-RSRP #1 and L1-RSRP #2 are measured at different reference signal transmission time instances, and channel measurement time instance status indication #2 is used to indicate whether L1-RSRP #3 and L1-RSRP #4 are measured at different reference signal transmission time instances. The values ​​of the two channel measurement time instance status indications in Figure 14 can be the same or different.

[0154] In one example, when the terminal device sets the status indication of the channel measurement time instance to enabled, it indicates that a group or all reporting quantities contained in the second report are measured at the same reference signal sending time instance; when the terminal device sets the status indication of the channel measurement time instance to disabled, it indicates that a group or all reporting quantities contained in the second report are measured at different reference signal sending time instances.

[0155] In another example, when the terminal device sets the status indication of the channel measurement time instance to enabled, it indicates that a group or all reporting quantities contained in the second report are measured at different reference signal sending time instances; when the terminal device sets the status indication of the channel measurement time instance to disabled, it indicates that a group or all reporting quantities contained in the second report are measured at the same reference signal sending time instance.

[0156] In Figures 5 to 14 , differential L1-RSRP#2 / 3 / 4 indicates the difference between the L1-RSRP#2 / 3 / 4 values ​​in the second report and L1-RSRP#1. It is assumed here that L1-RSRP#1 is the maximum L1-RSRP value in the second report. For details, please refer to the relevant art.
