Description

Measurement method, terminal, communication system and storage medium Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to a measurement method, a terminal, a communication system, and a storage medium. Background Art

[0002] In traditional cases, the timing offset between the serving cell and another cell is less than the cyclic prefix (CP). When the terminal device UE does not support the ability of the received time difference (RTD) between cells to be greater than the CP, the UE has only one fast Fourier transform (FFT) processor. The UE uses the time of the serving cell as a reference. Therefore, when the synchronization signal block (PSS / SSS PBCH Block, SSB) of the layer 1 reference signal received power (layer 1-Reference Signal Received Power, L1-RSRP) from the serving cell overlaps with the SSB / channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) of other cells, and the timing offset of the two SSBs is greater than the CP, the UE can only process the SSB of one cell at a time.

This specifies the terminal behavior of performing L1-RSRP measurement on the serving cell in mTRP when the terminal supports the capability of RTD greater than CP. The terminal behavior includes measurement restriction and / or scheduling restriction.

[0049] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, the first reference signal is associated with a physical cell identity PCI of the serving cell, or the first reference signal is associated with a PCI other than the PCI of the serving cell.

[0050] In the above embodiment, it is specified that the first reference signal may be associated with the PCI of the serving cell or may be associated with another PCI different from the PCI of the serving cell.

[0055] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, a beam failure is detected in the second frequency range, and the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, and measurement restrictions are used.

[0056] In the above embodiment, in the second frequency range, if a beam failure is detected and the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restrictions can be used to avoid signal measurement conflicts and improve measurement accuracy.

[0057] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, the first reference signal is an SSB for CBD measurement, the second reference signal is a CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement, and the signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: in a second frequency range, a beam failure is detected, and the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, and measurement restrictions are used.

[0058] In the above embodiment, when the first reference signal is SSB for CBD measurement and the second reference signal is CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement, in the second frequency range, if a beam failure is detected and the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restrictions can be used to avoid signal measurement conflicts and improve measurement accuracy.

[0059] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, the first reference signal is an SSB for any one of L1-RSRP measurement, BFD measurement, and RLM measurement, and the second reference signal is a CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement, and the signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: on FR2, the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, and measurement restrictions are used.

[0062] The CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement or other CSI-RS in the resource set is configured to be repeatedly turned on;

[0063] The first reference signal is configured in q1 and a beam failure is detected;

[0064] The two CSI-RS-es are not QCL-ed wrtQCL-TypeD; it should be explained here that QCL stands for Quasi Co-Location, which means quasi-co-location relationship in Chinese. The two CSI-RS-es are not QCL-ed wrtQCL-TypeD, which means that the first reference signal is CSI-RS and the second reference signal is CSI-RS, and the beam-related information of the two CSI-RS is not a quasi-co-location relationship of type D. QCL-TypeD (Spatial Rx parameter) means inheriting beam information from the reference signal and can be used for beam training. If two antenna ports have a QCL relationship in the sense of the Spatial Rx parameter, it can generally be understood that the same beam can be used to receive the two ports. Therefore, in beam management, there is no explicit signaling to indicate the receive beam that the UE should use, but it is implicitly indicated through the Spatial Rx parameter. For more specific meanings, please refer to TS 38.214.

[0065] The terminal does not know the quasi co-location relationship QCL information.

[0078] In the above embodiment, in a non-high-speed rail test HST scenario, when the reference symbols for L1-RSRP measurement do not use 480 kHz SCS or 960 kHz SCS on FR2-2, scheduling restrictions can be performed to more effectively utilize resources and improve resource utilization.

[0126] In some embodiments, network device 102 is a core network device. A core network device can be a single device, including a first network element, a second network element, etc., or can be multiple devices or a group of devices, each including all or part of the first network element, the second network element, etc. The network element can be virtual or physical. The core network includes, for example, at least one of an Evolved Packet Core (EPC), a 5G Core Network (5GCN), and a Next Generation Core (NGC).

[0127] In some embodiments, the technical solution of the present disclosure can be applied to the Open RAN architecture. In this case, the interfaces between or within the access network devices involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be transformed into internal interfaces of the Open RAN, and the processes and information interactions between these internal interfaces can be implemented through software or programs.

[0128] In some embodiments, the access network device can be composed of a centralized unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU), where the CU can also be called a control unit. The CU-DU structure can be used to split the protocol layer of the access network device, with the functions of some protocol layers centrally controlled by the CU, and the functions of the remaining part or all of the protocol layers distributed in the DU, which is centrally controlled by the CU, but is not limited to this.

[0129] It can be understood that the communication system described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0130] The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to the communication system 100 shown in FIG1 , or a portion thereof, but are not limited thereto. The entities shown in FIG1 are illustrative only. The communication system may include all or part of the entities shown in FIG1 , or may include other entities outside of FIG1 . The number and form of the entities are arbitrary, and the entities may be physical or virtual. The connection relationships between the entities are illustrative only. The entities may be connected or disconnected, and the connection may be in any manner, including direct or indirect, wired or wireless.

[0131] The embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G new radio (NR), future radio access (FRA), new radio access technology (RAT), new radio (NR), new radio access (NX), future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, Ultra-WideBand (UWB), Bluetooth (registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems based on and extending these methods. Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).

[0132] In some embodiments, in conventional cases, the timing offset between the serving cell and another cell is less than the CP. When the UE does not support "RTD>CP measurement capability", the UE has only one FFT processor. The UE uses the time of the serving cell as a reference. Therefore, when the SSB of the L1-RSRP from the serving cell overlaps with the SSB / CSI-RS of other cells and the timing offset of the two SSBs is greater than the CP, the UE can only process the SSB of one cell at a time. Measurement restrictions and scheduling restrictions are defined for the case where the UE does not measure two RSs at the same time. When the UE supports the measurement capability when RTD>CP, the UE provides a separate FFT processing system for each cell. Therefore, when two SSBs overlap and the timing offset is greater than the CP, the UE can process the two SSBs at the same time. In view of this, the present disclosure proposes the need to consider additional symbols before or after the SSB / CSI-RS configured for the L1-RSRP measurement of the serving cell.

[0133] FIG2 is an interactive diagram of a measurement method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2 , the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a measurement method, which includes:

[0134] Step S201 : The network device 102 sends a first configuration to the terminal 101 .

[0135] In some embodiments, terminal 101 receives a first configuration.

[0136] In some embodiments, in addition to obtaining the first configuration through step S201, the terminal 101 can also obtain the first configuration through other methods, for example, the terminal 101 obtains the first configuration specified by the protocol, or the terminal 101 obtains the first configuration from the upper layer(s), or the terminal 101 performs processing to obtain the first configuration, or the first configuration is configured in the terminal 101 by default.

[0137] In some embodiments, the first configuration is a configuration related to at least one of measurement restriction and scheduling restriction of L1-RSRP measurement.

[0138] In some embodiments, the first configuration is a related configuration for L1-RSRP measurement.

[0139] In some embodiments, the first configuration is a related configuration for L1-RSRP measurement of the serving cell.

[0140] In some embodiments, the name of the first configuration is not limited, and it can be, for example, "terminal behavior", "L1-RSRP measurement configuration", "serving cell L1-RSRP measurement configuration", etc.

[0141] In some embodiments, the first configuration includes configuration data of at least one of the following configuration items:

[0142] A first configuration item is used to determine configuration data of measurement restrictions for L1-RSRP measurement of a serving cell;

[0143] The second configuration item is used to determine configuration data of scheduling restrictions for L1-RSRP measurement of the serving cell.

[0144] Optionally, the first configuration may further include configuration items related to the measurement period, such as a period scaling factor.

[0145] In step S202, the terminal 101 determines that a first reference signal from the first cell and a second reference signal from the serving cell for L1-RSRP measurement are located in the same or adjacent symbols, and performs signal measurement according to the first configuration.

[0146] In some embodiments, terminal 101 supports the capability of RTD being greater than CP.

[0147] In some embodiments, the first reference signal and the second reference signal being located at the same or adjacent symbols can be understood as the symbol position of the first reference signal being the same as or adjacent to the symbol position of the second reference signal being located.

[0148] In some embodiments, step S202 can be understood as, when the terminal 101 is about to process two reference signals, if one of the reference signals is a reference signal from a serving cell for L1-RSRP measurement, then it is necessary to consider the first symbol where the reference signal configured for L1-RSRP measurement is located, as well as the previous symbol or the next symbol adjacent to the first symbol. For example, when the first reference signal from the first cell and the second reference signal from the serving cell for L1-RSRP measurement are located in the same or adjacent symbols, signal measurement can be performed according to a first configuration related to at least one of a measurement restriction and a scheduling restriction for L1-RSRP measurement. Optionally, the measurement restriction and the scheduling restriction may be for the first symbol where the reference signal configured for L1-RSRP measurement is located, as well as the previous symbol or the next symbol adjacent to the first symbol.

[0149] In some embodiments, the first cell may be a neighboring cell or another cell. The name of the first cell is not limited, and it may be, for example, a cell whose PCI is different from that of the serving cell, or a cell whose PCI is associated with that of the serving cell.

[0150] In some embodiments, the first reference signal is any one of a synchronization signal block SSB for L1-RSRP measurement, an SSB for beam failure detection BFD measurement, an SSB for candidate beam sounding CBD measurement, an SSB for radio link monitoring RLM measurement, a channel state information reference signal CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement, a CSI-RS for BFD measurement, a CSI-RS for CBD measurement, and a CSI-RS for RLM measurement.

[0151] In some embodiments, the second reference signal is an SSB or CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement.

[0152] In some embodiments, performing signal measurements according to the first configuration includes: applying measurement restrictions if the subcarrier spacing between the first reference signal and the second reference signal is different and the terminal does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology in a first frequency range. Optionally, the first frequency range is FR1.

[0153] For example, when the first reference signal is a CSI-RS for any one of L1-RSRP measurement, BFD measurement, CBD measurement, and RLM measurement, and the second reference signal is an SSB for L1-RSRP measurement, if the subcarrier spacing of the first reference signal and the second reference signal is different in the first frequency range and the terminal does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, measurement restriction is used.

[0154] In some embodiments, performing signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: in a second frequency range, the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located on the same component carrier (CC), or the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located on different CCs in the same frequency band, and measurement restrictions are used. Optionally, the second frequency range is FR1.

[0155] For example, when the first reference signal is a CSI-RS used for any one of L1-RSRP measurement, BFD measurement, CBD measurement, and RLM measurement, and the second reference signal is an SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement, if in the second frequency range, the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located on the same component carrier CC, or the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located on different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restrictions may be performed.

[0156] For example, when the first reference signal is an SSB for BFD measurement or CBD measurement, the first cell is attached with PCI, and the second reference signal is an SSB for L1-RSRP measurement, if on FR2, the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located on the same component carrier CC, or the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located on different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restrictions may be performed.

[0157] For example, when the first reference signal is an SSB used for any one of L1-RSRP measurement, BFD measurement, and RLM measurement, and the second reference signal is a CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement, if the first reference signal is associated with the physical cell identifier PCI of the serving cell, or the first reference signal is associated with a PCI other than the PCI of the serving cell, then on FR2, when the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restriction is used.

[0158] In some embodiments, the terminal performs signal measurements according to the first configuration, including: if, over a first frequency range, the first reference signal is within an activated partial bandwidth (BWP), the subcarrier spacing between the first reference signal and the second reference signal is different, and the terminal does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, then measurement restrictions are applied. Optionally, the first reference signal is associated with a physical cell identifier (PCI) of a serving cell. Optionally, the first reference signal is associated with a PCI different from the PCI of the serving cell. Optionally, the first frequency range is FR1.

[0159] For example, when the first reference signal is an SSB used for any one of L1-RSRP measurement, BFD measurement, CBD measurement, and RLM measurement, and the second reference signal is a CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement, if in the first frequency range, the first reference signal is within the activated partial bandwidth BWP, the subcarrier gaps between the first reference signal and the second reference signal are different, and the terminal does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, measurement restrictions are performed.

[0160] In some embodiments, the terminal performs signal measurements according to the first configuration, including: if a beam failure is detected in the second frequency range, and the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same cell or in different cell(s) within the same frequency band, then measurement restrictions are applied. Optionally, the first reference signal is associated with a physical cell identifier (PCI) of the serving cell. Optionally, the first reference signal is associated with a PCI different from the PCI of the serving cell. Optionally, the second frequency range is FR2.

[0161] For example, when the first reference signal is SSB for CBD measurement and the second reference signal is CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement, if a beam failure is detected in the second frequency range and the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restrictions may be performed.

[0162] In some embodiments, an implementation of the terminal performing signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: if the first reference signal is a CSI-RS used for any one of L1-RSRP measurement, BFD measurement, CBD measurement, and RLM measurement, and the second reference signal is a CSI-RS, then in the second frequency range, when the first reference signal and the second reference signal are located in the same CC or in different CCs in the same frequency band, measurement restrictions may be used in any of the following cases:

[0163] Case 1: The CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement or other CSI-RS in the resource set is configured to be repeatedly turned on. The CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement can be the first reference signal or the second reference signal.

[0164] Case 2: The first reference signal is configured in q1 and beam failure is detected.

[0165] Case 3: Both CSI-RS-es are not QCL-ed wrt QCL-TypeD.

[0166] Case 4: The terminal does not know the quasi co-location relationship QCL information.

[0167] In some embodiments, the measurement is limited to measuring one of a first reference signal and a second reference signal. For example, the measurement is limited to measuring the first reference signal. For example, the measurement is limited to measuring the second reference signal. For example, the measurement is limited to measuring one of the first reference signal and the second reference signal for L1-RSRP measurement.

[0168] In some embodiments, the implementation of the terminal performing signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: performing scheduling restrictions when the terminal performs L1-RSRP measurement on a time division duplex (TDD) frequency band in a first frequency range. Optionally, the first frequency range is FR1.

[0169] In some embodiments, an implementation of the terminal performing signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: performing scheduling restrictions when the terminal performs L1-RSRP measurement in a first frequency range with a subcarrier spacing different from that of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and the terminal does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology. Optionally, the first frequency range is FR1.

[0170] In some embodiments, the implementation of the terminal performing signal measurement according to the first configuration includes: if the terminal performs L1-RSRP measurement in a second frequency range, using scheduling restrictions. Optionally, the second frequency range is FR2.

[0171] In some embodiments, the terminal performs signal measurement according to the first configuration, including: in a non-high-speed rail test (HST) scenario, if the terminal performs L1-RSRP measurement in a third frequency range, then scheduling restriction is performed. Optionally, the third frequency range is FR2-1.

[0172] In some embodiments, the terminal performs signal measurement according to the first configuration, including, in a non-high-speed rail test (HST) scenario, using scheduling restrictions if a reference symbol for L1-RSRP measurement does not use 480 kHz SCS or 960 kHz SCS in a fourth frequency range. Optionally, the fourth frequency range is FR2-2.

[0173] In some embodiments, the scheduling restriction is that the terminal does not transmit the physical uplink control channel PUCCH, the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH, and the SRS, or does not receive the PDCCH, the PDSCH, the CSI-RS for the tracking function, and the CSI-RS for the channel quality indicator CQI measurement on any of the following symbols:

[0174] 1. The first symbol corresponding to the SSB index configured for L1-RSRP measurement and / or symbols adjacent to the first symbol.

[0175] 2. The second symbol corresponding to the periodic CSI-R resource configured for L1-RSRP measurement and / or a symbol adjacent to the second symbol.

[0265] In some embodiments, the measurement restrictions for SSB-based L1-RSRP of the serving cell are as follows:

[0266] In some embodiments, for FR1, when the SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement and the CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement are located in the same OFDM symbol, if the SSB and CSI-RS have the same SCS, the UE shall be able to measure the SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement without any restrictions. If the SSB and CSI-RS have different SCSs, and if the UE supports simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, the UE shall be able to measure the SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement without any restrictions. If the SSB and CSI-RS have different SCSs, and if the UE does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, when the SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement and the CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement are located in the same OFDM symbol or adjacent OFDM symbols, the UE needs to measure one of the reference signals instead of measuring both for L1-RSRP measurement. Optionally, the measurement period of the SSB-based L1-RSRP measurement may be longer, but the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0267] In some embodiments, for FR2, when the OFDM symbol of the SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement on one CC is located at the same position or adjacent to the OFDM symbol of the CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement on the same CC or a different CC in the same frequency band, the UE needs to measure one of them instead of measuring both the SSB and CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement. Optionally, the measurement period of the SSB-based L1-RSRP measurement may be longer, but this disclosure is not limited to this.

[0268] In some embodiments, for FR2, when an SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement on one carrier is located in the same or adjacent OFDM symbol as an SSB used for BFD or CBD measurement on the same carrier or on a different carrier within the same frequency band, the UE needs to measure only one of the SSBs, rather than measuring both SSBs simultaneously. Optionally, the measurement period for SSB-based L1-RSRP measurement may be longer, but this disclosure is not limited in this regard.

[0269] In some embodiments, for FR2, if the network configures the same or mixed numerology on one FR2 band as the CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD, L1-RSRP or L1-SINR measurements on another FR2 band, the UE shall be able to perform the relevant SSB-based measurements on one of the bands without any measurement restrictions on the other band, as long as the UE is capable of independent beam management on the pair of FR2 bands.

[0270] In some embodiments, the measurement restrictions for the CSI-RS-based L1-RSRP of the serving cell are as shown in the following embodiments, and the SSB mentioned in the following embodiments may be associated with the PCI of the serving cell or may be associated with a PCI different from the PCI of the serving cell:

[0271] In some embodiments, for FR1 and FR2, when the CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement and the SSB for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement are located in the same OFDM symbol, the UE is not required to receive the CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement in PRBs that overlap with an SSB.

[0272] In some embodiments, for FR1, when the SSB used for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurement is within the activated BWP and has the same SCS as the CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement, the UE shall be able to perform CSI-RS measurement without restriction.

[0273] In some embodiments, for FR1, when the SSB used for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement is located within an activated BWP and has a different SCS from the CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement, the UE should be able to perform CSI-RS measurement according to its capabilities. For example, if the UE supports simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, the UE should be able to perform CSI-RS measurement without restriction. For example, if the UE does not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, when the SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement and the CSI-RS for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement from a different cell are located in the same or adjacent OFDM symbols, the UE needs to measure one of them instead of measuring the CSI-RS and SSB used for L1-RSRP measurement at the same time. Optionally, the measurement period of the CSI-RS-based L1-RSRP measurement will be longer, but this is not limited by the present disclosure.

[0274] In some embodiments, for FR1, when the CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement is located in the same OFDM symbol as other CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurement, the UE should be able to measure the CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement without any restrictions.

[0275] In some embodiments, for FR2, when the CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement on one CC and the SSB for RLM, BFD, or L1-RSRP measurement on the same CC or different CCs in the same frequency band are in related OFDM symbols, or when a beam failure is detected, the SSB for CBD measurement on the same CC or different CCs in the same frequency band are in related symbols, the UE is required to measure one of the CSI-RS and SSB for L1-RSRP measurement instead of both. Optionally, the measurement period of the L1-RSRP measurement based on the CSI-RS is longer, but this disclosure is not limited to this. The related OFDM symbols are:

[0276] The same OFDM symbols as the serving cell's SSB transmission used for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurements;

[0277] If the UE supports RTD>CP measurement capability, the OFDM symbol is the same as the CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurement of other cells, and one OFDM symbol before or after;

[0278] If the UE does not support RTD>CP measurement capability, the same OFDM symbols as the SSB transmissions used by other cells for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurements.

[0279] In some embodiments, for FR2, when the CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement on one CC and another CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD, or L1-RSRP measurement on the same CC or a different CC in the same frequency band are in related OFDM symbols, in the following cases, the UE needs to measure one of them instead of measuring the CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement and the other CSI-RS at the same time. Optionally, the measurement period of the L1-RSRP measurement based on the CSI-RS will be longer, but this disclosure is not limited to this:

[0280] The CSI-RS used for L1-RSRP measurement or other CSI-RS in the resource set is configured to be repeatedly turned on; or

[0281] Another CSI-RS is configured in q1 and beam failure is detected; or

[0282] The two CSI-RS-es are not QCL-ed wrt QCL-TypeD, or the UE does not know the QCL information.

[0283] Otherwise, the UE shall be able to measure CSI-RS for L1-RSRP measurement without any restriction.

[0284] In some embodiments, the relevant OFDM symbols include:

[0285] The CSI from the serving cell is used for the same OFDM symbols used for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurements.

[0286] If the UE supports RTD>CP measurement capability, the OFDM symbol is the same as the CSI-RS used for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurement of other cells, as well as one OFDM symbol before or after it.

[0287] If the UE does not support RTD>CP measurement capability, the same OFDM symbols as the CSI used by other cells for RLM, BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurement.

[0288] In some embodiments, the scheduling availability of a UE performing L1-RSRP measurement in a TDD band on FR1 includes:

[0289] In some embodiments, when a UE performs L1-RSRP measurement in a TDD band, due to the L1-RSRP measurement, it is subject to the following restrictions: the UE does not expect to transmit PUCCH / PUSCH / SRS on symbols corresponding to the SSB index configured for L1-RSRP measurement or on adjacent symbols.

[0290] In some embodiments, the scheduling availability for a UE to perform L1-RSRP measurement on a serving cell FR1 with a subcarrier spacing different from that of PDSCH / PDCCH includes: For UEs that support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, there is no restriction on scheduling availability for SSB-based L1-RSRP measurement. Optionally, for UEs that do not support simultaneousRxDataSSB-DiffNumerology, the following restriction on scheduling availability applies for SSB-based L1-RSRP measurement: If the UE does not support RTD>CP measurement capability, the UE shall not transmit PUCCH / PUSCH / SRS or receive PDCCH / PDSCH / CSI-RS for tracking / CSI-RS for CQI on symbols corresponding to SSB indices configured for L1-RSRP measurement. If the UE supports RTD>CP measurement capability, the UE shall not transmit PUCCH / PUSCH / SRS or receive PDCCH / PDSCH / CSI-RS for tracking / CSI-RS for CQI on symbols with the SSB index configured for L1-RSRP measurement and adjacent SSBs.

[0291] In some embodiments, when intra-band carrier aggregation is configured in FR1, scheduling restrictions on the serving cell performing L1-RSRP measurement apply to all serving cells in the same frequency band that fully or partially overlap with the restricted symbols. When inter-band carrier aggregation is configured in FR1, there are no scheduling restrictions on FR1 serving cells configured in frequency bands other than the frequency band where the serving cell performing L1-RSRP measurement is configured.

[0292] In some embodiments, the scheduling availability for the UE to perform L1-RSRP measurements on FR2 of the serving cell includes:

[0293] In some embodiments, due to L1-RSRP measurements, the following scheduling restrictions apply:

[0294] In some embodiments, for L1-RSRP measurement using a CSI-RS that is qsed in the activated TCI state of the PDCCH / PDSCH, rather than in a CSI-RS resource set with repetition set to ON, and N=1 applies to the case specified in clause 9.5.4.2, if the UE supports RTD>CP measurement capability, the UE shall not uplink transmit PUCCH / PUSCH / SRS or receive PDCCH / PDSCH / CSI-RS for tracking / for CQI and adjacent CSI-RS on the symbols corresponding to or adjacent to the CSI-RS configured for L1-RSRP measurement. In the non-HST case, for FR2-1 or FR2-2 where the reference symbols for L1-RSRP measurement do not use 480 kHz SCS or 960 kHz SCS, if the UE does not support [RTD>CP measurement capability], the UE shall not uplink transmit PUCCH / PUSCH / SRS or receive PDCCH / PDSCH / CSI-RS for tracking / for CQI on the associated symbols.

[0299] In some embodiments, in non-HST cases, for FR2-1 or FR2-2 where reference symbols for L1-RSRP measurement do not use 480 kHz SCS or 960 kHz SCS, if the UE supports RTD>CP measurement capability, the UE shall not uplink transmit PUCCH / PUSCH / SRS or receive PDCCH / PDSCH / CSI-RS for tracking / CQI on the associated symbols. These associated symbols include:
