FIG2 is a flow chart of the serving cell measurement method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG2 , the flow chart includes the following steps:
[0037] Step S202: The target mobile terminal receives a measurement configuration of a measurement event sent by the connected base station, wherein the measurement configuration is used to indicate a signal strength condition and a signal stability condition that allow the mobile terminal to trigger the measurement event, the signal strength condition being a condition that the signal strength of the measured serving cell must satisfy when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event, and the signal stability condition being a condition that the signal stability of the measured serving cell must satisfy when the mobile terminal is allowed to trigger the measurement event;

[0039] Step S206: When it is measured that the reference serving cell satisfies both the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the target mobile terminal triggers the measurement event and reports a target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station.
[0040] Through the above steps, since the measurement configuration of the measurement event sent by the base station carries not only the signal strength condition that the signal strength of the serving cell measured when the mobile terminal triggers the measurement event must meet, but also the signal stability condition that the signal stability of the serving cell measured when the mobile terminal triggers the measurement event must meet, the measurement event is triggered when the reference serving cell satisfies both the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.

[0044] Optionally, in this embodiment, the base station may, but is not limited to, implement a mobility decision for the target mobile terminal by issuing a measurement event. The measurement event may, but is not limited to, include multiple measurement types, such as RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power), RSRQ (Reference Signal Receiving Quality), and SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio). The measurement event may also, but is not limited to, include multiple measurement modes, such as periodicity and event triggering.
[0045] Optionally, in this embodiment, the measurement event may include, but is not limited to, a serving cell change event, a neighboring cell measurement event, a reselection event, a signal quality report event, a measurement report event, etc. For different measurement events, the measurement configuration corresponding to each measurement event may be delivered, but is not limited to being delivered.
[0046] Optionally, in this embodiment, before sending the measurement event, it may be possible but not limited to determining whether the target mobile terminal meets the conditions for triggering the measurement event by sending a measurement configuration. The conditions may include but are not limited to: a signal strength condition and a signal stability condition. If the target mobile terminal meets the conditions such as the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the base station may, but is not limited to, send the measurement event to the target mobile terminal.

The target mobile terminal can, but is not limited to, determine the method of using the signal strength threshold and the signal stability threshold based on the event type of the measurement event carried in the measurement configuration. For example: taking triggering mobile terminal switching as an example, the base station can, but is not limited to, carry the event type of the measurement event as mobile terminal switching and the signal strength threshold and the signal stability threshold in the measurement configuration. The target mobile terminal parses the event type of the measurement event to determine whether it needs to detect whether the signal strength between it and the reference service cell (the service cell to be connected) is greater than the signal strength threshold, and whether the signal stability between it and the reference service cell is greater than the signal stability threshold, etc.
[0053] That is, the signal strength threshold and the signal stability threshold are used to indicate the thresholds of the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. The event type of the measurement event can be, but is not limited to, the conditions for indicating that the reference service cell meets the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition. The above conditions can include, but are not limited to: greater than the threshold, less than the threshold, equal to the threshold, etc.

For example, the serving cell to which the target mobile terminal is about to move is determined as the reference serving cell. Alternatively, the serving cell to which the target mobile terminal is currently located is determined as the reference serving cell.
[0055] Optionally, in this embodiment, a measurement configuration of a measurement event can be sent to the target mobile terminal but is not limited to it. The target mobile terminal responds to the measurement configuration to detect the signal strength and signal stability between it and the reference service cell, thereby determining whether the above-mentioned signal strength and signal stability meet the signal strength condition and signal stability condition.
[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the target mobile terminal may, but is not limited to, measure whether the reference service cell corresponding to the measurement event simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition in the following manner: the target mobile terminal measures whether the signal strength of the reference service cell falls within a signal strength range, and measures whether the signal stability of the reference service cell falls within a signal stability range, wherein the signal strength condition includes: the signal strength of the measured service cell falls within the signal strength range, and the signal stability condition includes the signal stability of the measured service cell falling within the signal stability range; when the signal strength of the reference service cell is simultaneously measured to fall within the signal strength range and the signal stability of the reference service cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that the reference service cell simultaneously satisfies the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0057] Optionally, in this embodiment, the signal strength range and signal stability range may be obtained by analyzing the measurement configuration, but are not limited to the above. The signal strength range may be, but are not limited to, an upper limit value, a lower limit value, or a signal strength value interval for indicating a signal strength that satisfies a signal strength condition. The signal stability range may be, but are not limited to, an upper limit value, a lower limit value, or a signal stability value interval for indicating a signal stability condition that satisfies a signal stability condition.
[0058] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the signal strength of the reference service cell falls within the signal strength range and the signal stability of the reference service cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that the reference service cell satisfies both the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.

[0065] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the measured signal strength variance value falls within the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, it is determined that the measured signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range. Alternatively, when the measured signal strength variance value does not fall within the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold, it is determined that the signal stability of the reference serving cell does not fall within the signal stability range.
[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, the relationship between the signal strength variance value of the reference service cell and the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold can be measured in the following manner, but is not limited to: measuring the signal strength of the reference service cell and the mean signal strength of the reference service cell; calculating the signal strength variance value of the reference service cell based on the signal strength of the reference service cell and the mean signal strength of the reference service cell; and comparing the signal strength variance value of the reference service cell with the threshold range indicated by the signal strength variance threshold.

[0081] In the case where the target mobile terminal receives the measurement configuration, the target mobile terminal is further configured to measure whether the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range;
[0082] When it is simultaneously measured that the signal strength of the reference serving cell falls within the signal strength range and the signal stability of the reference serving cell falls within the signal stability range, the target mobile terminal determines that the reference serving cell satisfies both the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition.
[0083] In the technical solution provided in the above step S206, when the reference serving cell satisfies both the signal strength condition and the signal stability condition, the target mobile terminal can be, but is not limited to, set to trigger a measurement event and report a target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station.
[0084] In an exemplary embodiment, the target mobile terminal may, but is not limited to, report the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event to the base station in the following manner: the target mobile terminal detects whether a current reporting time interval has ended, wherein the measurement configuration carries the reporting time interval, and the reporting time interval is used to instruct the target mobile terminal to report the measurement report of the measurement event according to the reporting time interval; when detecting that the current reporting time interval has ended, the target mobile terminal reports the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event in the current reporting time interval to the base station.
[0085] Optionally, in this embodiment, the reporting time interval may be carried in the measurement configuration, and the target mobile terminal uses the reporting time interval to determine the time when the target mobile terminal reports the measurement event to the base station and the target measurement report to be reported.
[0086] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of signal strength conditions and signal stability conditions is provided. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of signal strength conditions and signal stability conditions according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 4, taking the measurement event as the A5 measurement event and the reference serving cell as the serving cell that the target mobile terminal is about to reach as an example, the movement behavior of the target mobile terminal in the connected state triggers the mobile terminal handover scenario of the target mobile terminal, and the base station generates an event type and signal strength conditions carrying the measurement event, which may include, but are not limited to, the following content:
[0087] Entering condition 1; / / Event type: Entering condition 1;
[0088] Mp + Hys < Thresh1; / / The sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the currently serving cell and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is less than the signal strength threshold 1;
[0089] Entering condition 2; / / Event type: Entering condition 2;
[0090] Mn + Ofn + Ocn - Hys > Thresh2; / / The difference between the sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the reference serving cell, the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the reference serving cell, and the specific offset of the reference serving cell and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is greater than the signal strength threshold 2;
[0091] Leaving condition 1; / / Event type: Leaving condition 1;
[0092] Mp - Hys > Thresh1; / / The difference between the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the currently serving cell and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is greater than the signal strength threshold 1;
[0093] Leaving condition 2; / / Event type: Leaving condition 2;
[0094] Mn + Ofn + Ocn + Hys < Thresh2; / / The sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the reference serving cell, the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the reference serving cell, and the specific offset of the reference serving cell and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is less than the signal strength threshold 2;
[0095] Among them, Mp represents the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located, which can be but is not limited to being set within the range [1 - 127]. Mn represents the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the reference serving cell, which can be but is not limited to being set within the range [1 - 127]. Hys represents the hysteresis value of the measurement event. Thresh1 and Thresh2 respectively represent the signal strength threshold 1 and the signal strength threshold 2 of the measurement event. Ofn and Ocn respectively represent the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the reference serving cell and the specific offset of the reference serving cell.
[0096] The event type carried in the measurement configuration is used to indicate the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold. The signal strength condition includes falling within the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold. For different event types, the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold can be but is not limited to being different. For example, taking the signal strength threshold Thresh1 as an example, for entry condition 1, Mp + Hys < Thresh1 means that the sum of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is less than the signal strength threshold Thresh1, determining that it falls within the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold 1. Or, for departure condition 1, Mp - Hys > Thresh1 means that the difference between the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal for the serving cell where it is currently located and the hysteresis value of the measurement event is greater than the signal strength threshold Thresh1, determining that it falls within the threshold range corresponding to the signal strength threshold 1, etc.
[0097] It is possible but not limited to adding a signal stability condition for measuring the signal stability of the reference serving cell based on the above event type and signal strength condition of the measurement event. The signal stability condition includes:
[0098] Entering condition 3; / / Event type: Entering condition 3; D(X) = E[X - E(X)] 2 ≤D Threshold ;
[0099] Among them, X represents the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal, which can be but is not limited to being set within the range [1 - 127]. E(X) represents the mean value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal. D(X) represents the variance value of the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal, which is used to measure the signal stability of the reference serving cell. D Threshold represents the variance threshold of the signal strength of the reference serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal, that is, the signal stability threshold.
[0100] When the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal within a certain period of time meets the original measurement condition threshold, and the variance value of the signal strength measured by the target mobile terminal within the same period of time is less than or equal to the variance threshold D Threshold When the stability of the reference serving cell satisfies the expected value to a certain extent, that is, the variance threshold D Threshold At this time, the target mobile terminal will report the target measurement report corresponding to the measurement event, triggering the subsequent process of the base station.
[0101] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of a measurement configuration is provided. FIG5 is a schematic diagram of a measurement configuration according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG5 , taking the A5 measurement event as an example, the measurement configuration of the measurement event received by the target mobile terminal from the connected base station may include, but is not limited to:
[0102] a5-Threshold1 and a5-Threshold2 represent signal strength conditions 1 and 2, respectively, for the A5 measurement event. MeasTriggerQuantity indicates the event type for which this configuration parameter corresponds. In NR systems, event types include, but are not limited to, rsrp, rsrq, and sinr. hysteresis indicates the hysteresis value for the measurement event, and timeToTrigger indicates the duration for which the measurement event threshold condition must be met.
[0103] On this basis, a new threshold for measuring the stability of the target serving cell, namely the variance threshold, is added. Therefore, the measurement configuration is updated as follows:
[0104] a5-DThreshold MeasTriggerQuantity indicates the signal stability condition corresponding to the A5 measurement event.
[0105] When the target mobile terminal detects that the sum of the signal strength value and the hysteresis value of the current service cell is lower than Thersh1, it means that the signal value of the current service cell is attenuated to a certain extent during the movement of the target mobile terminal. At the same time, the target mobile terminal detects that the difference between the signal value of the target service cell, the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the operating frequency of the target service cell, the specific offset of the target service cell, and the hysteresis value corresponding to the measurement event is higher than thresh2, indicating that the target mobile terminal moves from the current service cell to the target service cell.
[0106] In addition to the two existing measurement entry conditions, a third measurement condition is added to determine whether the target mobile terminal enters the measurement phase. When the variance of the target serving cell's signal value measured by the target mobile terminal is lower than the variance threshold DThreshold, indicating that the target serving cell's signal is stable, the target mobile terminal meets all three measurement entry conditions and initiates the measurement. If the signal conditions of the current serving cell and the target serving cell measured by the target mobile terminal continue to meet the three measurement entry conditions for a duration of timeToTrigger, the terminal will report a measurement report corresponding to the measurement event.
[0107] If the signal conditions of the serving cell and the target serving cell measured by the terminal do not meet one of the three conditions for entering the measurement during the time period of timeToTrigger, the target mobile terminal will exit the current measurement and wait until the three conditions for entering the measurement are met before continuing the measurement.
[0108] In an exemplary embodiment, an example of a method for measuring whether a reference service cell meets a signal strength condition and a signal stability condition is provided. Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a method for measuring whether a reference service cell meets a signal strength condition and a signal stability condition according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 6, a5-Threshold1 is set to RSRP = -85dBm (decibel-milliwatt), a5-Threshold2 is set to RSRP = -80dBm, the hysteresis value corresponding to the measurement event is 0, the specific offset corresponding to the target service cell and the specific offset of the measurement object corresponding to the operating frequency of the target service cell are also 0, the variance threshold is set to a5-DThreshold = 0.5, and the duration timeToTrigger is set to 240ms. When the target mobile terminal measures that the RSRP of the current service cell is lower than -85dBm and the RSRP of the target service cell is higher than -80dBm, and the signal variance value of the target service cell is lower than 0.5, these three conditions need to be met at the same time before the target mobile terminal can enter the A5 measurement phase. The specific configuration is as follows:
[0109] a5-Threshold1(rsrp):-85dBm;
[0110] a5-Threshold12(rsrp):-80dBm;
[0111] a5-DThreshold:0.5;
[0112] timeToTrigger = 240ms;
[0113] rsType:ssb;
[0114] reportInterval:240ms;
[0115] reportAmout:1;
[0116] reportQualityCell:rsrp;
[0117] maxReportCell:4;
[0118] Among them, rsType indicates the type of measurement reference signal, including SSB and CSI-RS. reportInterval indicates the time interval between consecutive measurement reports, and the reporting time intervals include 120ms, 240ms, 480ms, 640ms, 1.024s, 2.048s, 5.12s, 10.24s, 40.96s, 1min, 6min, 12min, and 30min. reportAmout indicates the number of times the measurement report is sent, which are 1 times, 2 times, 4 times, 8 times, 16 times, 32 times, 64 times, and unlimited times. reportQualtityCell indicates the measurement result type value options included in the measurement event report, including rsrp, rsrq, and sinr types. maxReportCell indicates the maximum number of cells included in the measurement report.
[0119] If the signal strength values of the current service cell and the target service cell measured by the target mobile terminal during the time period of timeToTrigger are -90dBm and -75dBm respectively, and the target service cell signal variance value measured by the target mobile terminal is 0.4, the target mobile terminal will report the measurement report corresponding to the measurement event. Otherwise, the measurement report will not be reported within the time period, and it is necessary to continue measuring in the next time period to determine the conditions for entering the measurement.
[0120] By adding the variance threshold condition, the impact of target serving cell signal fluctuations can be taken into account during the terminal measurement process, avoiding handover failures due to large target serving cell signal fluctuations or unstable terminal connection after switching to the target serving cell, thereby improving the handover success rate and user experience.
