[0048] FIG1 shows a block diagram of a wireless communication system applicable to embodiments of the present application. Referring to FIG1 , the wireless communication system includes a terminal 110 and a network-side device 120 .

[0049] The network-side device 120 may include an access network device or a core network device. The access network device may also be referred to as a radio access network (RAN) device, a radio access network function, or a radio access network unit. The access network device may include a base station, a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP), or a wireless fidelity (WiFi) node. Among them, the base station can be referred to as Node B (NB), Evolved Node B (eNB), the next generation Node B (gNB), New Radio Node B (NR Node B), access point, Relay Base Station (RBS), Serving Base Station (SBS), Base Transceiver Station (BTS), radio base station, radio transceiver, Basic Service Set (BSS), Extended Service Set (ESS), Home Node B (HNB), Home Evolved Node B (home evolved Node B), Transmission Reception Point (TRP) or other appropriate terms in the field. As long as the same technical effect is achieved, the base station is not limited to specific technical vocabulary. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example for introduction, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.

[0050] In the present application, the network side device 120 may be a test device, which is used to send a test signal to a terminal to be tested, and then test the RRM measurement performance of the terminal through the test signal.

[0051] The terminal 110 may be a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, notebook computer, personal digital assistant (PDA), handheld computer, netbook, ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), mobile internet device (MID), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) device, robot, wearable device, flight vehicle, vehicle user equipment (VUE), shipborne equipment, pedestrian user equipment (PUE), smart home (home appliances with wireless communication capabilities, such as refrigerators, televisions, washing machines, or furniture), game console, personal computer (PC), ATM or self-service machine, etc. Wearable devices include: smart watches, smart bracelets, smart headphones, smart glasses, smart jewelry (smart bracelets, smart bracelets, smart rings, smart necklaces, smart anklets, smart anklets, etc.), smart wristbands, smart clothing, etc. The vehicle-mounted device may also be referred to as a vehicle-mounted terminal, a vehicle-mounted controller, a vehicle-mounted module, a vehicle-mounted component, a vehicle-mounted chip, or a vehicle-mounted unit, etc. It should be noted that the specific type of the terminal 110 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0052] FIG2 shows a schematic block diagram of a terminal 110 applicable to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG2 , the terminal 110 includes: a first receiving unit and a second receiving unit, wherein the power of the first receiving unit satisfies a first preset condition, which may specifically mean that the power of the first receiving unit is less than a preset value, and it belongs to a low-power receiving module, or it may become a receiving unit with nearly “zero” power. Specifically, this receiving unit with nearly “zero” power does not involve complex processing such as signal detection (such as amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) of the radio frequency (RF) module and baseband (MODEM) signal, but only relies on passive matching filtering and signal processing with low power consumption. In some terminals, the first receiving unit and the second receiving unit belong to two modules in the same receiver; in some terminals, the first receiving unit and the second receiving unit are respectively a receiver, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0053] Take the example of the first receiving unit and the second receiving unit being two modules in the same receiver, that is, a low power wake up radio (LP-WUR) or an almost zero power wake up radio (AZP-WUR). As shown in Figure 2, the first receiving unit is a low power receiving module (also referred to as a low power wake up receiving module or a low power receiver in the embodiment of the present application), which is used to receive a wake-up signal, such as a low power wake up signal (LP-WUS); the second receiving unit is a main communication module (also referred to as a main receiver in the embodiment of the present application), which is used to receive and send mobile communication data. When the terminal 110 is in an energy-saving state (standby state), the main communication module is turned off or enters a sleep state, and the low power receiving module is in an active state to monitor the above-mentioned wake-up signal. When downlink data arrives at the terminal 110, the network side device 120 will first send a wake-up signal to the terminal 110. The terminal 110 in the energy-saving state listens to the wake-up signal through the low-power receiving module, and then triggers the main communication module from off to on or wakes up after a series of judgments. At this time, the low-power receiving module enters the off state from the working state. Among them, the low-power wake-up receiving module can be turned on continuously or intermittently, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. Therefore, when the terminal 110 is deployed with a low-power receiver, the power consumption of the terminal in the standby state can be reduced.

[0054] When a low-power receiver is deployed on a terminal, the low-power receiver (first receiving unit) performs RRM measurements of the serving cell. Furthermore, the low-power receiver (first receiving unit) determines whether to wake up the primary receiver (second receiving unit) based on the RRM measurements. In the related art, there is a lack of performance testing solutions for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up the primary receiver. Therefore, providing a performance testing solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up the primary receiver is a problem that needs to be solved.

[0055] The solution provided by the present application can solve the problems existing in the related art. Specifically, when the network side sends a test signal to the terminal, the low-power receiver (first receiving unit) of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on the first cell to reduce the power consumption of the terminal. When the measurement result of the above-mentioned first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal restarts the main receiver (second receiving unit) and performs a second RRM measurement through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell can be used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. For example, the successful access of the terminal to the second cell indicates that the first receiving unit successfully awakened the second receiving unit during the RRM measurement process. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance test solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up the main receiver.

[0056] The following describes in detail the RRM measurement performance testing method provided by the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0057] Example 1

[0058] FIG3 is a flow chart of a method P300 for testing RRM measurement performance provided in Example 1 of the present application. The method P300 for testing RRM measurement performance is applied to a terminal. As shown in FIG3 , the method P300 for testing RRM measurement performance provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0059] S310. A first receiving unit of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on a first cell in response to receiving a test signal sent by a network-side device, wherein an operating power of the first receiving unit satisfies a first preset condition.

[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal may be configured with a first receiving unit serving as a low-power receiver and a second receiving unit serving as a primary receiver, as shown in FIG2 . As previously described, the first receiving unit, serving as a low-power receiver, does not involve complex processing such as radio frequency (RF) signal detection (e.g., amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) or baseband (MODEM) signal processing, relying solely on passive matched filtering and low-power signal processing. The operating power of the first receiving unit is lower than a preset value, making it a near-zero-power receiver.

[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal is in an idle mode or an inactivated mode of the radio resource control (RRC). For example, the first cell may be the cell that the terminal 110 is currently accessing or in. To simplify the description, the cell may also be referred to as the local cell or current cell of the terminal 110. For example, for the terminal 110 in the RRC idle mode or inactivated mode, the local cell is the cell in which the terminal 110 resides. For another example, for the terminal in the RRC connected state, the local cell is the serving cell of the terminal 110.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the network-side device may be a test device. The type of signal sent by the network-side device for the first receiving unit to perform the first RRM measurement includes at least one of the following: a low-power wake-up signal LP-WUS, and a low-power synchronization signal (Low Power Synchronization Signal, LP-SS). Exemplarily, LP-WUS may be an on-off keying signal, wherein FIG4 shows a time domain pattern of the test signal used in the first RRM measurement process being LP-WUS. It is understandable that the type of test signal used in performing the first RRM measurement process is not limited to the above, and may also be other types, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0063] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned test signal (including the "first test signal" and the "second test signal" in subsequent embodiments) refers to a signal used by the first receiving unit to perform the first RRM measurement, which can be a signal of a specific test parameter or a signal of a random parameter determined according to an actual scenario. The embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0064] Exemplarily, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) may determine that the test signal is received by energy detection, sequence detection and identification, or payload detection.

[0065] Exemplarily, when the first receiving unit (low power receiver) receives the above-mentioned test signal, the received test signal can be used to perform RRM performance measurement. For example, when the received test signal is LP-SS, at least one of reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement, reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurement, signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) measurement, and received signal strength indication (RSSI) measurement is performed.

[0066] It should be noted that while the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) is performing the first RRM measurement on the first cell, the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is powered off or in a sleep state to maintain a low power consumption level, thereby saving power by receiving the wake-up signal. This avoids or reduces the amount of RF transceiver processing and baseband processing by the second receiving unit (primary receiver), thereby achieving terminal energy conservation.

[0067] S320. When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets a second preset condition, the terminal starts a second receiving unit and performs a second RRM measurement through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection; wherein, the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal.

[0068] In an exemplary embodiment, the second preset condition may be that the first RRM measurement result reaches a preset threshold or a preset threshold range. The first RRM measurement result meeting the second preset condition indicates that the current network quality is less than , and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) needs to be awakened for cell reselection.

[0069] Exemplarily, the first RRM measurement result may be represented by at least one of RSRP, RSRQ, SINR, and RSSI. A corresponding threshold value may be defined for each measurement result. When at least one of the measurement results satisfies the corresponding threshold or threshold range, terminal 110 is required to wake up the second receiving unit (primary receiver) to perform cell reselection.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on a test signal (referred to as a "third test signal") sent by a network-side device. During the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell (intra-frequency or inter-frequency) is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the test requirements for cell reselection. Exemplarily, a second cell with high network quality is determined in the at least one neighboring cell through cell reselection.

[0071] Furthermore, the access information of terminal 110 in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. For example, the above test result can be determined by terminal 110 or by network-side device 120 as a test device, thereby improving test flexibility. The embodiments of this application will be described separately in subsequent embodiments.

[0072] In the solution provided by method P300, the first receiving unit of the terminal is in the startup phase to monitor the test signal sent by the network side device, and the second receiving unit is in a sleep state. When the first receiving unit monitors the network side sending a test signal to the terminal, a first RRM measurement is performed on the first cell. When the measurement result of the above-mentioned first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit. And the second RRM measurement is performed through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell can be used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. For example, the successful access of the terminal to the second cell indicates that the first receiving unit successfully awakened the second receiving unit during the RRM measurement process. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance test solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up the main receiver.

[0073] Example 2

[0074] Based on Example 1, Example 2 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Example 1 can all be applied to Example 2 and achieve the same technical effects. In this embodiment, the terminal determines the test results. Figure 5 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P500 provided in Example 2 of the present application. As shown in Figure 5, the RRM measurement performance testing method P500 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0075] S510. A first receiving unit of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on a first cell in response to receiving a test signal sent by a network-side device, wherein an operating power of the first receiving unit satisfies a first preset condition.

[0076] The specific implementation of S510 is the same as that of S310 and will not be repeated here.

[0077] S520: When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets a second preset condition, the terminal starts a second receiving unit and performs a second RRM measurement through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection.

[0078] The specific implementation of S520 is the same as that of S320 and will not be repeated here.

[0079] S530: The terminal determines a test result according to its access information in the second cell.

[0080] As previously described, the second cell is a neighboring cell of the first cell. When the first receiving unit of terminal 110 determines that the network quality of the first cell is poor, the second receiving unit of terminal 110 is awakened. The second receiving unit executes a second RRM strategy, thereby receiving the network of the second cell through cell reselection. Furthermore, after terminal 110 camps on the second cell, it determines a test result based on its access information in the second cell.

[0081] S530-1: After camping on the second cell, terminal 110 obtains the number of random access channel (RACH) accesses initiated by the second receiving unit within a preset duration. The RACH is an uplink transmission channel and is the first message sent from the UE to the eNB when terminal 110 starts up. All cellular technologies (CDMA, GSM, WCDMA, and LTE) have a signal similar to the RACH as the first message sent by the UE to the eNB, and this message is applicable to the embodiments of the present application.

[0082] S530-2: Determine a test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal according to the number of access times.

[0083] Exemplarily, if the terminal's RACH access count within the preset duration is less than the preset count, it indicates that terminal 110 has successfully accessed the second cell. This demonstrates that the terminal's first receiving unit successfully awakened the second receiving unit after determining that the first cell was performing the second RRM. This demonstrates that the embodiments of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for a low-power receiver's ability to awaken a primary receiver.

[0084] In an exemplary embodiment, after determining the test result, the terminal 110 may also send the test result to the network-side device 120 for storage, thereby facilitating statistical processing of the test result.

[0085] Example 3

[0086] Based on Examples 1 and 2, Example 3 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 1 and 2 can be applied to Example 3 and achieve the same technical effects. Figure 6 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P600 provided in Example 3 of the present application. As shown in Figure 6, the RRM measurement performance testing method P600 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0087] S610. A first receiving unit of a terminal performs the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving a first test signal sent by a network-side device.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present application, the first time period and the second time period both refer to the time for performing the terminal RRM measurement performance test and have a time sequence relationship. The specific duration of the first time period and the second time period can be determined according to actual needs and are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0089] In an exemplary embodiment, the first test signal may be at least one of the following information:

[0090] A preset number of LP-WUS signals;

[0091] A preset number of LP-SS signals;

[0092] LP-SS signal with fixed time window length;

[0093] LP-WUS signal with fixed time window length.

[0094] During the first time period, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) in terminal 110 is in an active state, and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is in a sleep state. Thus, after the network-side device (test device) sends the first test information, the first receiving unit can monitor the first test signal and perform the first RRM measurement based on the monitored first test signal.

[0095] S620. When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the second receiving unit responds to receiving the third test signal sent by the network side device and performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within a second time period.

[0096] Since the embodiment of the present application is used to test the terminal's ability to wake up the second receiving unit / wake-up behavior, the first test information in the embodiment of the present application is a signal indicating poor signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition. Furthermore, the condition for activating the second receiving unit is met only when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0097] Specifically, if the first RRM measurement result indicates that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a second time period to implement cell reselection.

[0098] Exemplarily, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on a third test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the cell reselection test requirement.

[0099] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit is awakened, the first receiving unit may be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to enable energy saving effects.

[0100] S630: After the second time period is completed, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the measurement result of the second RRM measurement; wherein the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal.

[0101] Illustratively, after completing the second RRM measurement in the second time period, the terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine a test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for determining the measurement result of the RRM measurement by terminal 110 is the same as the specific implementation method of S530 and is not further described herein.

[0102] During the test process provided by method P600, the first receiving unit is in the startup state and the second receiving unit is in the sleep state during the first time period. In the first time period, the first receiving unit monitors the first test information and performs a first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. The measurement result of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the first cell is poor, so as to ensure the conditions for the terminal to wake up the second receiving unit. In the second time period, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal reselects the cell based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement. After the terminal resides in the second cell, the terminal can use its access information in the second cell to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the above-mentioned terminal. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance test solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a main receiver.

[0103] Example 4

[0104] Based on Examples 1 and 2, Example 4 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 1 and 2 can be applied to Example 4 and achieve the same technical effects. Figure 7 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P700 provided in Example 3 of the present application. As shown in Figure 7, the RRM measurement performance testing method P700 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0105] S710. A first receiving unit of a terminal performs the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving a first test signal sent by a network-side device.

[0106] In the embodiment of the present application, the first time period, the second time period, and the third time period all refer to the time period for performing the terminal RRM measurement performance test and have a temporal sequence relationship. The specific durations of the first time period, the second time period, and the third time period can be determined according to actual needs and are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0107] In an exemplary embodiment, the first test signal may be at least one of the following information:

[0108] A preset number of LP-WUS signals;

[0109] A preset number of LP-SS signals;

[0110] LP-SS signal with fixed time window length;

[0111] LP-WUS signal with fixed time window length.

[0112] During the first time period, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) in terminal 110 is in an active state, and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is in a sleep state. Thus, after the network-side device (test device) sends the first test information, the first receiving unit can monitor the first test signal and perform the first RRM measurement based on the monitored first test signal.

[0113] S720. When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the second receiving unit responds to receiving the fourth test signal sent by the network side device, and performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell within the second time period; and the second receiving unit responds to receiving the third test signal sent by the network side device, and performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within the third time period.

[0114] Since the embodiment of the present application is used to test the terminal's ability to wake up the second receiving unit / wake-up behavior, the first test information in the embodiment of the present application is a signal indicating poor signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition. Furthermore, the condition for activating the second receiving unit is met only when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0115] Specifically, when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the above-mentioned first cell in the second time period. Specifically, in the second time period, the test signal used by the second receiving unit when performing the first phase of the second RRM measurement can be called a fourth test signal, wherein the fourth test signal must meet the following conditions: the network signal quality of the first cell is higher than that of the neighboring cell. Through the measurement of the first phase of the second RRM measurement by the second receiving unit, the accuracy of the first RRM measurement of the first receiving unit in the first time period can be verified, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement result of the terminal RRM measurement. In addition, for the second receiving unit that has just been started, the first phase of the second RRM measurement can be performed to achieve the effect of warm-up startup, which is beneficial to ensure the accuracy of subsequent measurements by the second receiving unit.

[0116] Exemplarily, when the measurement result of the first phase of the second RRM measurement verifies that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the second receiving unit performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cell within the third time period to achieve cell reselection.

[0117] Illustratively, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second phase of the second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on the third test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second phase of the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the cell reselection test requirement.

[0118] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit is awakened, the first receiving unit may be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to enable energy saving effects.

[0119] S730: After the third time period is completed, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the measurement result of the second RRM measurement; wherein the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal.

[0120] Illustratively, after the second phase of the second RRM measurement is completed in the third time period, the terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement results of the second phase of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine a test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for determining the measurement result of the RRM measurement by terminal 110 is the same as the specific implementation method of S530 and is not further described herein.

[0121] During the test process provided by method P700, the first receiving unit is in an active state and the second receiving unit is in a dormant state during a first time period. During the first time period, the first receiving unit monitors the first test information and performs a first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. The measurement result of the first RRM measurement is poor network quality of the first cell, thereby ensuring the conditions for the terminal to wake up the second receiving unit. During the second time period, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell to verify the measurement result of the first receiving unit. During the third time period, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second phase of the second RRM measurement. After residing in the second cell, the terminal can determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the above-mentioned terminal based on its access information in the second cell. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a main receiver.

[0122] Example 5

[0123] Based on Examples 1 and 2, Example 5 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Example 1 can all be applied to Example 5 and achieve the same technical effects. Figure 8 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P800 provided in Example 5 of the present application. As shown in Figure 8, the RRM measurement performance testing method P800 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0124] S810: In response to receiving a first test signal sent by a network-side device, the first receiving unit of the terminal performs the first phase of the first RRM measurement within a first time period. Furthermore, S820: In response to receiving a second test signal sent by the network-side device, the first receiving unit of the terminal performs the second phase of the first RRM measurement within a second time period. The first test signal and the second test signal differ in at least one piece of information: transmit power and signal-to-noise ratio.

[0125] In the embodiment of the present application, the first time period, the second time period, and the third time period all refer to the time period for performing the terminal RRM measurement performance test and have a temporal sequence relationship. The specific durations of the first time period, the second time period, and the third time period can be determined according to actual needs and are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0126] In an exemplary embodiment, the first test signal and the second test signal have different transmission powers, or different signal-to-noise ratios, or different transmission powers and signal-to-noise ratios. Exemplarily, the first test signal and the second test signal may each include at least one of the following information:

[0127] A preset number of LP-WUS signals;

[0128] A preset number of LP-SS signals;

[0129] LP-SS signal with fixed time window length;

[0130] LP-WUS signal with fixed time window length.

[0131] During the first and second time periods, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) in terminal 110 is in an active state, and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is in a sleep state. Thus, after the network-side device (test device) sends the first test information during the first time period, the first receiving unit is able to monitor the first test signal and perform the first phase of the first RRM measurement based on the monitored first test signal. During the second time period, after the network-side device (test device) sends the second test information, the first receiving unit is able to monitor the second test signal and perform the second phase of the first RRM measurement based on the monitored second test signal.

[0132] Since the embodiment of the present application is used to test the terminal's ability to wake up the second receiving unit / wake-up behavior, the second test information in the embodiment of the present application is a signal indicating poor signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the test result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition. Furthermore, the condition for activating the second receiving unit is met only when the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0133] For example, the first phase of the first RRM measurement in the embodiment of the present application can serve as a reference for the second phase of the first RRM measurement. Therefore, the first test information is a signal indicating strong signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the test result of the first phase of the first RRM measurement satisfies the second preset condition. Consequently, the second receiving unit is not awakened during the second time period. Instead, the second receiving unit is awakened only when the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0134] S830. When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the second receiving unit responds to receiving the third test signal sent by the network side device and performs the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within a third time period.

[0135] Specifically, if the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a third time period to implement cell reselection.

[0136] Illustratively, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on the third test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the cell reselection test requirement.

[0137] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit is awakened, the first receiving unit may be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to enable energy saving effects.

[0138] S840. After the third time period is completed, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the measurement result of the second RRM measurement; wherein the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal.

[0139] Illustratively, after completing the second RRM measurement in the third time period, the terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine a test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for determining the measurement result of the RRM measurement by terminal 110 is the same as the specific implementation method of S530 and is not further described herein.

[0140] During the test process provided by method P800, the first receiving unit is in an active state and the second receiving unit is in a dormant state during the first and second time periods. During the first time period, the first receiving unit monitors the first test information and performs the first phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. During the second time period, the first receiving unit monitors the second test information and performs the second phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the second test signal. The measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the first cell, ensuring that the terminal can wake up the second receiving unit. During the third time period, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement results of the second RRM measurement. After residing in the second cell, the terminal's access information in the second cell is used to determine the test results of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. This shows that the embodiments of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a main receiver.

[0141] Example 6

[0142] Based on Examples 1 and 2, Example 6 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 1 and 2 can be applied to Example 6 and achieve the same technical effects. Figure 9 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P900 provided in Example 6 of the present application. As shown in Figure 9, the RRM measurement performance testing method P900 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0143] S910. The first receiving unit of the terminal performs the first phase of the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving a first test signal sent by the network side device; and S920. The first receiving unit of the terminal performs the second phase of the first RRM measurement within a second time period in response to receiving a second test signal sent by the network side device; wherein at least one piece of information is different between the first test signal and the second test signal: transmission power and signal-to-noise ratio.

[0144] In the embodiments of the present application, the first time period, the second time period, the third time period, and the fourth time period all refer to the time period for performing the terminal RRM measurement performance test and have a temporal sequence relationship. The specific durations of the first time period, the second time period, the third time period, and the fourth time period can be determined based on actual needs and are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0145] In an exemplary embodiment, the first test signal and the second test signal have different transmission powers, or different signal-to-noise ratios, or different transmission powers and signal-to-noise ratios. Exemplarily, the first test signal and the second test signal may each include at least one of the following information:

[0146] A preset number of LP-WUS signals;

[0147] A preset number of LP-SS signals;

[0148] LP-SS signal with fixed time window length;

[0149] LP-WUS signal with fixed time window length.

[0150] During the first and second time periods, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) in terminal 110 is in an active state, and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is in a sleep state. Thus, after the network-side device (test device) sends the first test information during the first time period, the first receiving unit is able to monitor the first test signal and perform the first phase of the first RRM measurement based on the monitored first test signal. During the second time period, after the network-side device (test device) sends the second test information, the first receiving unit is able to monitor the second test signal and perform the second phase of the first RRM measurement based on the monitored second test signal.

[0151] Since the embodiment of the present application is used to test the terminal's ability to wake up the second receiving unit / wake-up behavior, the second test information in the embodiment of the present application is a signal indicating poor signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the test result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition. Furthermore, the condition for activating the second receiving unit is met only when the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0152] For example, the first phase of the first RRM measurement in the embodiment of the present application can serve as a reference for the second phase of the first RRM measurement. Therefore, the first test information is a signal indicating strong signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the test result of the first phase of the first RRM measurement satisfies the second preset condition. Consequently, the second receiving unit is not awakened during the second time period. Instead, the second receiving unit is awakened only when the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0153] S930. If the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal activates the second receiving unit; in response to receiving the fourth test signal sent by the network-side device, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell within a third time period; and, in response to receiving the third test signal sent by the network-side device, the second receiving unit performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a fourth time period.

[0154] When the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the above-mentioned first cell in the third time period. Specifically, in the third time period, the test signal used by the second receiving unit when performing the first phase of the second RRM measurement can be called a fourth test signal, wherein the fourth test signal must meet the following conditions: the network signal quality of the first cell is higher than that of the neighboring cell. Through the measurement of the first phase of the second RRM measurement by the second receiving unit, the accuracy of the second phase of the first RRM measurement of the first receiving unit in the second time period can be verified, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement results of the terminal RRM measurement. In addition, for the second receiving unit that has just been started, the first phase of the second RRM measurement can be executed to achieve the effect of warm-up startup, which is beneficial to ensure the accuracy of subsequent measurements by the second receiving unit.

[0155] Exemplarily, when the measurement results of the first phase of the second RRM measurement verify that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the second receiving unit performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within the fourth time period to achieve cell reselection.

[0156] Illustratively, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on the test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second phase of the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell of the first cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the test requirements for cell reselection.

[0157] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit is awakened, the first receiving unit can be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to start the energy saving effect.

[0158] S940. After the fourth time period is completed, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the measurement result of the second RRM measurement; wherein the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal.

[0159] Illustratively, after the second phase of the second RRM measurement is completed in the fourth time period, the terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement results of the second phase of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell is used to determine a test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for determining the measurement result of the RRM measurement by terminal 110 is the same as the specific implementation method of S530 and is not further described herein.

[0160] During the test process provided by method P900, the first receiving unit is in an active state and the second receiving unit is in a dormant state during the first and second time periods. During the first time period, the first receiving unit monitors first test information and performs the first phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. During the second time period, the first receiving unit monitors second test information and performs the second phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the second test signal. The measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the first cell, ensuring that the terminal wakes up the second receiving unit. During the third time period, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement on the first cell to verify the measurement result of the first receiving unit. During the fourth time period, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second phase of the second RRM measurement. After camping on the second cell, the terminal determines the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal based on the access information of the second cell. Thus, embodiments of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a main receiver.

[0161] Example 7

[0162] Embodiment 6 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance, with a network-side device as the execution subject. FIG10 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P1000 provided in Embodiment 7 of the present application. As shown in FIG10 , the RRM measurement performance testing method P1000 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0163] S1010. A network-side device sends a test signal to a terminal, so that a first receiving unit of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on a first cell in response to receiving the test signal, wherein an operating power of the first receiving unit satisfies a first preset condition.

[0164] In an exemplary embodiment, the above-mentioned network side device may be a test device. The type of the signal sent by the above-mentioned network side device for the first receiving unit to perform the first RRM measurement includes at least one of the following: a low power wake-up signal LP-WUS, and a low power synchronization signal (Low Power Synchronization Signal, LP-SS). Exemplarily, LP-WUS may be an on-off keying signal, wherein FIG4 shows that the test signal used in the process of the first receiving unit performing the first RRM measurement is a time domain pattern of LP-WUS. It can be understood that the type of the test signal used by the first receiving unit in the process of performing the first RRM measurement is not limited to the above, and may also be other types, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0165] Exemplarily, the above-mentioned test signal (including the "first test signal" and the "second test signal" in subsequent embodiments) refers to a signal used by the first receiving unit to perform the first RRM measurement, which can be a signal of a specific test parameter or a signal of a random parameter determined according to an actual scenario. The embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0166] Exemplarily, the test signal may be received by a low-power receiver in the terminal through energy detection, sequence detection and identification, or payload detection.

[0167] In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal may be configured with a first receiving unit serving as a low-power receiver and a second receiving unit serving as a primary receiver, as shown in FIG2 . As previously described, the first receiving unit, serving as a low-power receiver, does not involve complex signal detection (e.g., amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) in the RF module or baseband (MODEM) signal processing, relying solely on passive matched filtering and low-power signal processing. The operating power of the first receiving unit is lower than a preset value, making it a near-zero power receiver.

[0168] In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal is in an idle mode or an inactivated mode of the radio resource control (RRC). For example, the first cell may be the cell that the terminal 110 is currently accessing or in. To simplify the description, the cell may also be referred to as the local cell or current cell of the terminal 110. For example, for the terminal 110 in the RRC idle mode or inactivated mode, the local cell is the cell in which the terminal 110 resides. For another example, for the terminal in the RRC connected state, the local cell is the serving cell of the terminal 110.

[0169] Exemplarily, when the first receiving unit (low power receiver) receives the above-mentioned test signal, the received test signal can be used to perform RRM performance measurement. For example, when the received test signal is LP-SS, at least one of reference signal received power (RSRP) measurement, reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurement, signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) measurement, and received signal strength indication (RSSI) measurement is performed.

[0170] It should be noted that while the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) is performing the first RRM measurement on the first cell, the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is powered off or in a sleep state to maintain a low power consumption level, thereby saving power by receiving the wake-up signal. This avoids or reduces the amount of RF transceiver processing and baseband processing by the second receiving unit (primary receiver), thereby achieving terminal energy conservation.

[0171] In an exemplary embodiment, when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement satisfies a second preset condition, the terminal activates a second receiving unit and performs a second RRM measurement through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection.

[0172] In an exemplary embodiment, the second preset condition may be that the first RRM measurement result reaches a preset threshold or a preset threshold range. The first RRM measurement result meeting the second preset condition indicates that the current network quality is less than , and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) needs to be awakened for cell reselection.

[0173] Exemplarily, the first RRM measurement result may be represented by at least one of RSRP, RSRQ, SINR, and RSSI. A corresponding threshold value may be defined for each measurement result. When at least one of the measurement results satisfies the corresponding threshold or threshold range, terminal 110 is required to wake up the second receiving unit (primary receiver) to perform cell reselection.

[0174] In an exemplary embodiment, the network device 120 sends a test signal (referred to as a "third test signal") to cause the terminal 110 to simultaneously perform a second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells (intra-frequency or inter-frequency). During the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the cell reselection test requirement.

[0175] Furthermore, the access information of terminal 110 in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. For example, the above test result can be determined by terminal 110 or by network-side device 120 as a test device, thereby improving test flexibility. The embodiments of this application will be described separately in subsequent embodiments.

[0176] In the solution provided by method P1000, the first receiving unit of the terminal is in the startup phase to monitor the test signal sent by the network side device, and the second receiving unit is in a sleep state. When the first receiving unit monitors the network side sending a test signal to the terminal, a first RRM measurement is performed on the first cell. When the measurement result of the above-mentioned first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit. And the second RRM measurement is performed through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection. Furthermore, the access information of the terminal in the second cell can be used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. For example, the successful access of the terminal to the second cell indicates that the first receiving unit successfully awakened the second receiving unit during the RRM measurement process. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance test solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up the main receiver.

[0177] Example 8

[0178] Based on Example 7, Example 8 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Example 7 can all be applied to Example 8 and achieve the same technical effects. Figure 11 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P1100 provided in Example 8 of the present application. As shown in Figure 11, the RRM measurement performance testing method P1100 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0179] S1110. The network-side device sends a test signal to the terminal, so that a first receiving unit of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on a first cell in response to receiving the test signal, wherein the operating power of the first receiving unit meets a first preset condition.

[0180] In which, when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the above-mentioned terminal starts the second receiving unit and performs a second RRM measurement through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection; the access information of the above-mentioned terminal in the second cell is used to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the above-mentioned terminal.

[0181] The specific implementation of S1110 is the same as that of S1010 and will not be repeated here.

[0182] S1120. The network-side device determines a test result based on the access information of the terminal in the second cell.

[0183] As previously described, the second cell is a neighboring cell of the first cell. When the first receiving unit of terminal 110 determines that the network quality of the first cell is poor, the second receiving unit of terminal 110 is awakened. The second receiving unit executes a second RRM strategy, thereby receiving the network of the second cell through cell reselection. Furthermore, after terminal 110 camps on the second cell, it determines a test result based on its access information in the second cell.

[0184] S1120-1: After the terminal 110 resides in the second cell, the network-side device 120 obtains the number of accesses to the random access channel (RACH) initiated by the second receiving unit within a preset duration. The RACH is an uplink transmission channel and is the first message sent from the UE to the eNB when the terminal 110 starts up. In all cellular technologies (CDMA, GSM, WCDMA, LTE), there is a signal similar to the RACH as the first message sent by the UE to the eNB, and this message is applicable to the embodiments of the present application.

[0185] S1120-2: Determine a test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal according to the number of access times.

[0186] Exemplarily, if the terminal's RACH access count within the preset duration is less than the preset count, it indicates that terminal 110 has successfully accessed the second cell. This demonstrates that the terminal's first receiving unit successfully awakened the second receiving unit after determining that the first cell was performing the second RRM. This demonstrates that the embodiments of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for a low-power receiver's ability to awaken a primary receiver.

[0187] Embodiment 9

[0188] Based on Examples 7 and 8, Example 9 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 7 and 8 can be applied to Example 9 and achieve the same technical effects. Figure 12 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P1200 provided in Example 9 of the present application. As shown in Figure 12, the RRM measurement performance testing method P1200 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0189] S1210. A network-side device sends a first test signal to the terminal, so that a first receiving unit of the terminal performs the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving the first test signal.

[0190] In an exemplary embodiment, the first test signal may be at least one of the following information:

[0191] A preset number of LP-WUS signals;

[0192] A preset number of LP-SS signals;

[0193] LP-SS signal with fixed time window length;

[0194] LP-WUS signal with fixed time window length.

[0195] During the first time period, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) in terminal 110 is in an active state, and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is in a sleep state. Thus, after the network-side device (test device) sends the first test information, the first receiving unit can monitor the first test signal and perform the first RRM measurement based on the monitored first test signal.

[0196] Since the embodiment of the present application is used to test the terminal's ability to wake up the second receiving unit / wake-up behavior, the first test information in the embodiment of the present application is a signal indicating poor signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition. Furthermore, the condition for activating the second receiving unit is met only when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0197] Based on the first test signal sent by the network side, the terminal may execute the following two embodiments to implement the measurement process of the terminal RRM measurement.

[0198] S1220. The network-side device sends a third test signal, so that the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a second time period in response to receiving the third test signal.

[0199] When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the network side device continues to send a test signal to enable the above-mentioned second receiving unit to perform the second RRM measurement of the above-mentioned first cell and the adjacent cells of the above-mentioned first cell within the second time period.

[0200] In the embodiment of the present application, the first time period and the second time period both refer to the time for performing the terminal RRM measurement performance test and have a time sequence relationship. The specific duration of the first time period and the second time period can be determined according to actual needs and are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0201] Specifically, if the first RRM measurement result indicates that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a second time period to implement cell reselection.

[0202] In an exemplary embodiment, the test signal sent by the network-side device 120 causes the terminal 110 to simultaneously perform a second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells. During the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell of the first cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the cell reselection test requirement.

[0203] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit of the terminal 110 is awakened, the first receiving unit may be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to enable energy saving effects.

[0204] In an exemplary embodiment, after completing the second RRM measurement, the terminal 110 performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the network device 120 uses the access information of the second cell to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for the network device 120 to determine the measurement result of the RRM measurement is the same as the specific implementation method of S1120 and is not further described here.

[0205] During the test process provided by method P1200, the first receiving unit is in the startup state and the second receiving unit is in the sleep state during the first time period. During the first time period, the network side device sends a first test message. The first receiving unit of the terminal monitors the above-mentioned first test message and performs a first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. The measurement result of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the first cell is poor, so as to ensure the conditions for the terminal to wake up the second receiving unit. Next, the network side device sends a test signal to enable the second receiving unit to simultaneously perform a second RRM measurement of the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal reselects the cell based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement. After the cell resides in the second cell, the network side device determines the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the above-mentioned terminal based on the access information of the terminal in the second cell. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance test solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a main receiver.

[0206] Example 10

[0207] Based on Examples 7 and 8, Example 10 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 7 and 8 can be applied to Example 10 and achieve the same technical effect. Figure 13 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P1300 provided in Example 10 of the present application. As shown in Figure 13, the RRM measurement performance testing method P1300 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0208] S1310. A network-side device sends a first test signal to the terminal, so that a first receiving unit of the terminal performs the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving the first test signal.

[0209] The specific implementation of S1310 is the same as that of S1210 and will not be repeated here.

[0210] S1320. The network-side device sends a fourth test signal, so that the second receiving unit, in response to receiving the fourth test signal, performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell within a second time period. Furthermore, the network-side device sends a third test signal, so that the second receiving unit, in response to receiving the third test signal, performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and its neighboring cells within a third time period.

[0211] When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the network side device continues to send a test signal to enable the second receiving unit to perform the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell within the second time period, and to perform the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the neighboring cells of the first cell within the third time period through the second receiving unit.

[0212] In the embodiment of the present application, the first time period, the second time period, and the third time period all refer to the time period for performing the terminal RRM measurement performance test and have a temporal sequence relationship. The specific durations of the first time period, the second time period, and the third time period can be determined according to actual needs and are not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0213] Specifically, when the measurement result of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the above-mentioned first cell in the second time period. Specifically, in the second time period, the test signal used by the second receiving unit when performing the second RRM measurement can be the same as the above-mentioned first test signal. Through the measurement of the first phase of the second RRM measurement by the second receiving unit, the accuracy of the first RRM measurement of the first receiving unit in the first time period can be verified, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement result of the terminal RRM measurement. In addition, for the newly started second receiving unit, the first phase of the above-mentioned second RRM measurement can be executed to achieve the effect of warm-up startup, which is beneficial to ensure the accuracy of subsequent measurements of the second receiving unit.

[0214] Exemplarily, when the measurement results of the first phase of the second RRM measurement verify that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the second receiving unit performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within the third time period to achieve cell reselection.

[0215] Illustratively, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on the test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second phase of the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell of the first cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the test requirements for cell reselection.

[0216] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit of the terminal 110 is awakened, the first receiving unit may be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to enable energy saving effects.

[0217] In an exemplary embodiment, after completing the second RRM measurement, the terminal 110 performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the network device 120 uses the access information of the second cell to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for the network device 120 to determine the measurement result of the RRM measurement is the same as the specific implementation method of S1120 and is not further described here.

[0218] During the test process provided by method P1300, the first receiving unit is in the startup state and the second receiving unit is in the sleep state during the first time period. In the first time period, the network side device sends a first test message. The first receiving unit of the terminal listens to the above-mentioned first test message and performs a first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. The measurement result of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the first cell is poor, so as to ensure the conditions for the terminal to wake up the second receiving unit. Next, the network side device first performs RRM measurement on the first cell and then performs RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells at the same time. The terminal reselects the cell based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement. After the cell resides in the second cell, the network side device determines the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the above-mentioned terminal based on the access information of the terminal in the second cell. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can provide a performance test solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up the main receiver.

[0219] Example 11

[0220] Based on Examples 7 and 8, Example 11 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 7 and 8 can be applied to Example 11 and achieve the same technical effect. Figure 14 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P1400 provided in Example 11 of the present application. As shown in Figure 14, the RRM measurement performance testing method P1400 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0221] S1410: The network-side device sends a first test signal to the terminal, causing the first receiving unit of the terminal to perform the first phase of the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving the first test signal. And, S1420: The network-side device sends a second test signal to the terminal, causing the first receiving unit of the terminal to perform the second phase of the first RRM measurement within a second time period in response to receiving the second test signal.

[0222] In an exemplary embodiment, the first test signal and the second test signal have different transmission powers, or different signal-to-noise ratios, or different transmission powers and signal-to-noise ratios. Exemplarily, the first test signal and the second test signal may each include at least one of the following information:

[0223] A preset number of LP-WUS signals;

[0224] A preset number of LP-SS signals;

[0225] LP-SS signal with fixed time window length;

[0226] LP-WUS signal with fixed time window length.

[0227] During the first and second time periods, the first receiving unit (low-power receiver) in terminal 110 is in an active state, and the second receiving unit (primary receiver) is in a sleep state. Thus, after the network-side device (test device) sends the first test information during the first time period, the first receiving unit is able to monitor the first test signal and perform the first phase of the first RRM measurement based on the monitored first test signal. During the second time period, after the network-side device (test device) sends the second test information, the first receiving unit is able to monitor the second test signal and perform the second phase of the first RRM measurement based on the monitored second test signal.

[0228] Since the embodiment of the present application is used to test the terminal's ability to wake up the second receiving unit / wake-up behavior, the second test information in the embodiment of the present application is a signal indicating poor signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the test result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition. Furthermore, the condition for activating the second receiving unit is met only when the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0229] For example, the first phase of the first RRM measurement in the embodiment of the present application can serve as a reference for the second phase of the first RRM measurement. Therefore, the first test information is a signal indicating strong signal quality in the current cell, thereby ensuring that the test result of the first phase of the first RRM measurement satisfies the second preset condition. Consequently, the second receiving unit is not awakened during the second time period. Instead, the second receiving unit is awakened only when the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the current cell.

[0230] Based on the first test signal and the second test signal sent by the network side, the terminal may execute the following two embodiments to implement the measurement process of the terminal RRM measurement.

[0231] S1430. The network-side device sends a third test signal, so that the second receiving unit performs second RRM measurement of the first cell and cells adjacent to the first cell within a third time period in response to receiving the third test signal.

[0232] When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the network side device continues to send a test signal so that the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within a third time period based on the test signal.

[0233] Specifically, if the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a third time period to implement cell reselection.

[0234] Exemplarily, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs a second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on the test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell of the first cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the cell reselection test requirement.

[0235] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit is awakened, the first receiving unit can be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to start the energy saving effect.

[0236] In an exemplary embodiment, after completing the second RRM measurement, the terminal 110 performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the network device 120 uses the access information of the second cell to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for the network device 120 to determine the measurement result of the RRM measurement is the same as the specific implementation method of S1120 and is not further described here.

[0237] During the test process provided by method P1400, the first receiving unit is in an active state and the second receiving unit is in a dormant state during the first and second time periods. During the first time period, the network device sends a first test signal, and the first receiving unit monitors the first test information and performs the first phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. During the second time period, the network device sends a second test signal, and the first receiving unit monitors the second test information and performs the second phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the second test signal. The measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the first cell, ensuring that the terminal can wake up the second receiving unit. Next, the network device continues to send test signals, causing the second receiving unit of the terminal to perform the second phase of the second RRM measurement simultaneously on the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal performs cell reselection based on the second RRM measurement result. After camping on the second cell, the network device determines the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal based on the terminal's access information in the second cell. Thus, embodiments of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a primary receiver.

[0238] Example 12

[0239] Based on Examples 7 and 8, Example 12 of the present application provides a method for testing RRM measurement performance. The implementation methods described in Examples 7 and 8 can be applied to Example 12 and achieve the same technical effect. Figure 15 is a flowchart of the RRM measurement performance testing method P1500 provided in Example 12 of the present application. As shown in Figure 15, the RRM measurement performance testing method P1500 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps.

[0240] S1510: The network-side device sends a first test signal to the terminal, causing the first receiving unit of the terminal to perform the first phase of the first RRM measurement within a first time period in response to receiving the first test signal. And, S1520: The network-side device sends a second test signal to the terminal, causing the first receiving unit of the terminal to perform the second phase of the first RRM measurement within a second time period in response to receiving the second test signal; the first test signal and the second test signal differ in at least one piece of information: transmit power and signal-to-noise ratio.

[0241] The specific implementation of S1510 and S1520 is the same as that of S1410 and S1420, and will not be repeated here.

[0242] S1530. The network-side device sends a fourth test signal, so that the second receiving unit, in response to receiving the fourth test signal, performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell within a third time period. Furthermore, the network-side device sends a third test signal, so that the second receiving unit, in response to receiving the third test signal, performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a fourth time period.

[0243] When the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit; the network side device continues to send a test signal to enable the second receiving unit to perform the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell within a third time period, and to enable the second receiving unit to perform the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within a fourth time period.

[0244] When the measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement is that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the terminal (specifically, the first receiving unit) wakes up the second receiving unit. Furthermore, the second receiving unit performs the first phase of the second RRM measurement of the above-mentioned first cell in the third time period. Specifically, in the third time period, the test signal used by the second receiving unit when performing the second RRM measurement can be the same as the above-mentioned second test signal. Through the measurement of the first phase of the second RRM measurement by the second receiving unit, the accuracy of the second phase of the first RRM measurement of the first receiving unit in the second time period can be verified, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement result of the terminal RRM measurement. In addition, for the newly started second receiving unit, the first phase of the second RRM measurement can be executed to achieve the effect of warm-up startup, which is beneficial to ensure the accuracy of subsequent measurements of the second receiving unit.

[0245] Exemplarily, when the measurement results of the first phase of the second RRM measurement verify that the network quality of the current cell is poor, the second receiving unit performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement of the first cell and the adjacent cells of the first cell within the fourth time period to achieve cell reselection.

[0246] Illustratively, the second receiving unit simultaneously performs the second phase of the second RRM measurement on the first cell and its neighboring cells based on the test signal sent by the network-side device. During the second phase of the second RRM measurement, the third test signal sent by the network-side device must satisfy the following requirements: the network quality of at least one neighboring cell of the first cell is higher than the network signal quality of the first cell, thereby meeting the test requirements for cell reselection.

[0247] In an exemplary embodiment, after the second receiving unit is awakened, the first receiving unit can be controlled to switch from a working state to a sleeping state to start the energy saving effect.

[0248] In an exemplary embodiment, after completing the second RRM measurement, the terminal 110 performs cell reselection based on the measurement result of the second RRM measurement and resides in the second cell. Furthermore, the network device 120 uses the access information of the second cell to determine the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal. The specific implementation method for the network device 120 to determine the measurement result of the RRM measurement is the same as the specific implementation method of S1120 and is not further described here.

[0249] During the test process provided by method P1500, the first receiving unit is in an active state and the second receiving unit is in a dormant state during a first time period and a second time period. During the first time period, the network device sends a first test signal, and the first receiving unit monitors the first test information and performs the first phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the first test signal. During the second time period, the network device sends a second test signal, and the first receiving unit monitors the second test information and performs the second phase of the first RRM measurement on the current cell based on the second test signal. The measurement result of the second phase of the first RRM measurement indicates poor network quality in the first cell, ensuring that the terminal can wake up the second receiving unit. Subsequently, the network device continues to send test signals, causing the second receiving unit of the terminal to first perform RRM measurements on the first cell, and then simultaneously perform RRM measurements on the first cell and its neighboring cells. The terminal performs cell reselection based on the second RRM measurement results. After camping on the second cell, the network device determines the test result of the RRM measurement performance of the terminal based on the terminal's access information in the second cell. Thus, embodiments of the present application can provide a performance testing solution for the behavior of a low-power receiver waking up a primary receiver.

[0252] S1601: The network side device sends a test signal to the terminal;

[0253] S1602. The first receiving unit of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on the first cell in response to receiving a test signal sent by the network-side device.

[0254] S1603: If the measurement result of the first RRM measurement meets the second preset condition, the terminal starts the second receiving unit and performs a second RRM measurement through the second receiving unit to perform cell reselection;

[0255] S1604. The terminal determines a test result based on its access information in the second cell. Alternatively, S1604'. The network-side device determines a test result based on the access information of the terminal in the second cell.

[0259] S1701: The network-side device sends a first test signal to the terminal;

[0260] S1702. The first receiving unit of the terminal performs a first RRM measurement on the first cell in response to receiving a first test signal sent by the network side device.

[0262] S1704: The network-side device sends a third test signal to the terminal;

[0263] S1705. In response to receiving the third test signal sent by the network-side device, the second receiving unit performs a second RRM measurement of the first cell and a cell adjacent to the first cell within a second time period.

[0264] S1706. After the second time period is completed, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the measurement result of the second RRM measurement;

[0265] S1707. The terminal determines a test result based on its access information in the second cell. Alternatively, S1707'. The network-side device determines a test result based on the access information of the terminal in the second cell.
