[0055] To facilitate understanding of the information processing method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the following nouns or terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are first explained:
[0056] 1) Energy saving: This includes but is not limited to energy saving, energy efficiency, power saving, and power efficiency. The energy saving in the embodiments of the present application may refer to energy-saving services, energy-saving operations, or energy-saving transmissions. For example, between the terminal and the base station, an energy-saving transmission method is used to transmit the first service data to save energy consumption of the terminal when executing the first service.
[0057] In some implementations, the energy-saving transmission mode may be a network scheduling resource for data to be transmitted using an energy-saving scheduling method. For example, the first network device may schedule more resources for the terminal to transmit data according to transmission parameters corresponding to the energy-saving mode.
[0058] In some embodiments, the base station provides energy-saving services to the terminal to enable energy-saving transmission of data between the terminal and the terminal. At this time, the terminal performs energy-saving operations related to energy-saving transmission. For example, when the base station provides energy-saving services to the terminal, it uses an energy-saving scheduling method to schedule the resources used for data to be transmitted to the terminal. The terminal receives or sends data on the specified resources or in a specified manner according to the scheduling of the base station.
[0059] In some implementations, the energy-saving mode in the embodiments of the present application can be understood as an operating mode used by the terminal when energy-saving transmission is enabled, energy-saving services are used, or energy-saving transmission methods are adopted. For example, the energy-saving mode can be understood as a mode in which the first network-side device can schedule more resources for the terminal to transmit data according to the transmission parameters corresponding to the energy-saving mode.
[0060] 2) First object: refers to an object on which energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement needs to be performed, which may specifically include objects such as sessions and services, and is not specifically limited here.
[0061] 3) Second object: refers to the session and service with energy-saving transmission mode enabled;
[0062] It should be noted that the relationship between the first object and the second object can be of the following two types:
[0063] a) For sessions or services with energy-saving transmission mode enabled, all of them can be used as first objects for energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, that is, the first object is the same as the second object;
[0064] b) For a session or service in which the energy-saving transmission mode is enabled, part of the session or service may be used as a first object for energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, that is, the first object is a part of the second object.
[0065] 4) The result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement is used to indicate the quantitative result of energy saving, such as how much energy consumption the first object saves by using the energy-saving transmission service, or the energy consumption level or ratio when the first object uses the energy-saving transmission service.
[0066] 5) First network side device: can be access network equipment such as a base station.
[0067] 6) Second network side equipment: may include at least one of the core network equipment such as AMF, SMF, PCF, etc.
[0068] Optionally, the second network side device may also include a newly added control network element, in which case the newly added control network element is used to transmit management-related information between the terminal, and the management-related information includes at least one of the following: mobility management-related information, connection management-related information, session management-related information, task management-related information, policy control-related information and energy-saving control management-related information.
[0069] With the development of immersive media services (such as Extended Reality (XR) and Augmented Reality (AR)), media streams such as images and sounds need to be synchronized between terminal devices and immersive media servers in a timely and reliable manner, and the power of terminal devices needs to be sufficient to support the experience time of immersive media services. In related technologies, uplink / downlink energy-saving (high energy efficiency) transmission solutions for low power consumption of terminals are being studied. The main requirement is to ensure that the terminal service quality remains unchanged and the terminal standby time is longer. Among them, the loss of network-side resources is not ruled out in the process of terminal energy saving, and spectrum efficiency or coverage may be sacrificed. The embodiments of the present application are used to achieve measurable energy-saving effects of terminals and obtain energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results that can quantify the energy-saving effects.
[0070] In the following, in combination with the accompanying drawings, the terminal energy-saving measurement method, terminal energy-saving measurement configuration method, terminal energy-saving measurement device, terminal energy-saving measurement configuration device and related equipment provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail through some embodiments and their application scenarios.
[0071] Referring to FIG. 2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a terminal energy-saving measurement method, the execution subject of which may be a terminal. As shown in FIG. 2 , the terminal energy-saving measurement method may include the following steps:
[0072] Step 201: The terminal obtains first information, where the first information is used to indicate information required for the terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0073] In some implementations, the terminal may obtain the first information by at least one of the following: obtaining pre-configured first information, receiving first information indicated by the network side, or the first information agreed upon or defined in a protocol. The terminal receiving the first information indicated by the network side may be the terminal receiving the first information sent by an access network device, or the terminal receiving the first information sent by a core network device.
[0074] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal obtains the first information, including:
[0075] The terminal receives first information from the first network side device or the second network side device.
[0076] In one implementation, the first information may be a first network-side device, and the first network-side device may be the access network device (such as a base station) shown in FIG. 1 .
[0077] In another embodiment, the first information may be a second network side device, and the second network side device may be the core network device shown in FIG. 1 .
[0078] For ease of explanation, in the embodiments of the present application, an example is generally given in which the terminal receives the first information indicated by the network side, which does not constitute a specific limitation.
[0079] Step 202: The terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement according to the first information to obtain a result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0080] It should be noted that before the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, the first network side device provides energy-saving services for the terminal, and the terminal and the first network side device are aware of the energy-saving parameters used by the energy-saving service. For example, the terminal has completed the negotiation of energy-saving parameters with the core network, so that both the first network side device (such as a base station) and the terminal are aware of the energy-saving parameters.
[0081] In some implementations, after acquiring the first information, the terminal can perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement according to the configuration or instruction of the first information.
[0082] For example: based on the first information, knowing the first object on which energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement needs to be performed, such as knowing which session / service needs to be energy-saving monitored or energy-saving measured based on the first information; or, based on the first information, knowing how to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, such as at what time to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0083] In some embodiments, the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can quantify the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service. For example, the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can indicate the change in energy efficiency of the first object after using the energy-saving service compared to the energy efficiency before using the energy-saving service; or the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can indicate the difference in power consumption of the first object for transmitting a certain amount of data after using the energy-saving service compared to the power consumption for transmitting the same amount of data before using the energy-saving service.
[0084] In some embodiments, based on the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, it is possible to provide intuitive feedback to the terminal user that the network side has provided energy-saving services for the terminal. For example, after a terminal has signed a contract for energy-saving services, the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can be output on the terminal, so that the terminal user knows that the network side has provided energy-saving services for the terminal, thereby improving the user experience. Optionally, the terminal may provide the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the upper layer. For example, the terminal may provide the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the upper layer via a modem (Attention, AT) command, so that the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement are output to the user through the upper layer of the terminal.
[0085] It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement measured by the terminal can enhance the privacy of the terminal's privacy parameters. For example, during the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement process, the terminal's battery power, amount of transmitted data and other data can be detected to obtain accurate energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results while avoiding the leakage of data such as battery power and amount of transmitted data.
[0086] In some embodiments, the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can also provide assistance to the network side in adjusting the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal. For example, the terminal sends the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the base station, and the base station adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal accordingly to achieve better energy consumption and efficiency.
[0087] It is worth mentioning that, in this embodiment, the terminal sends the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the base station, including the terminal providing the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the bottom layer.
[0088] In an embodiment of the present application, a terminal obtains first information indicating information required for the terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement; the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the first information, and obtains a result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement. In this way, the terminal can perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the information required to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, thereby obtaining a result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement. Based on the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service provided by the network side can be quantified.
[0089] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:
[0090] 1) A first identifier, where the first identifier is used to identify an energy-saving monitoring rule or an energy-saving measurement rule, or the first identifier is used to identify a Quality of Service (QoS) rule.
[0091] In some embodiments, the energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule may be an energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement strategy, or energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement data. The energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule, strategy or data may indicate the parameters required to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, and what processing to perform on the parameters to obtain the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, etc.
[0092] For example, the energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule may indicate that the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement is determined based on the amount of data transmitted on the first object and the amount of power consumed during the transmission of the data.
[0093] In some implementations, the QoS rules may include energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules for QoS flows. The specific meanings of the rules may refer to the explanations of the energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules, which will not be repeated here.
[0094] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules or QoS rules can be agreed upon in the protocol, or other methods can be used to enable the terminal to know the rules of each candidate energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule or QoS rule, and determine the energy-saving monitoring rule or energy-saving measurement rule or QoS rule used in performing energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the first identifier.
[0095] 2) First indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate a first object or a second identifier, where the second identifier is the identifier of the first object, and the first object is the object of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0096] In some implementations, the first indication information may be used to indicate an object for energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, such as indicating which session, service, QoS flow, or terminal to perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on.
[0097] For example: The second identifier may include at least one of the following: Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session identifier (session ID), Data Network Name (DNN), Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI), QoS Flow ID (QFI), QFI set, and terminal identifier.
[0098] It should be noted that the first information may not include the first indication information. In this case, energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement is performed on each session, service, QoS flow or terminal using the energy-saving service on the terminal by default.
[0099] It is worth mentioning that in the relevant technology, the energy-saving scheme is mainly aimed at how to reduce the monitoring power consumption of the terminal in the idle state or the connected state during the non-data transmission period. For the future 6G network, for different users or even different services, the base station can use different transmission parameters for transmission, such as resource granularity, transmission mode, etc., so that the same amount of data can have different terminal power consumption levels and energy-saving effects. Therefore, a more refined control mechanism for terminal power consumption can be introduced. Under the influence of factors such as user contract authorization, business needs, terminal auxiliary status reporting, terminal tendencies, etc., the base station can more reasonably choose the transmission method, save the power consumption of the connected terminal during the data transmission period, and achieve a better balance and benefit between terminal power consumption and system efficiency. In summary, the energy saving in the embodiments of the present application can include how to reduce the monitoring power consumption of the terminal in the idle state or the connected state during the non-data transmission period, and can also be used to reduce the power consumption of the terminal during data transmission in the connected state.
[0100] In some implementations, although the core network has issued the energy-saving parameters of the terminal, the base station can independently decide when to enable connected state transmission energy-saving transmission for the terminal, and even at what granularity to enable energy-saving transmission, such as enabling energy-saving transmission for a specified service or a specified session, based on factors such as the current load condition or algorithm strategy. At this time, the base station can indicate the first object for performing energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement through the above-mentioned first indication information, such as indicating that all or part of the services in the service list for enabling energy-saving transmission are used as the first object;
[0101] 3) A first duration, the first duration being used to indicate a duration for performing the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement during a period when energy-saving transmission is not enabled. Optionally, the first duration includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: a timer value, a duration.
[0102] In some embodiments, the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can be obtained by comparing the energy efficiency parameter during the period when energy-saving transmission is enabled with a reference energy efficiency parameter during the period when energy-saving transmission is not enabled. In this case, the first duration indicates how long the measurement period during the period when energy-saving transmission is not enabled is required to obtain the reference energy efficiency parameter, which can be used as a basis for determining the energy-saving effect of using the energy-saving service.
[0103] For example: assuming that the terminal has signed an energy-saving service for a certain service A, at this time, the base station adopts an energy-saving transmission method to transmit the data of service A to the terminal. At this time, before the base station adopts the energy-saving transmission method for the data of service A, when the terminal transmits the data of service A, the first energy efficiency parameter of service A can be measured according to the first duration; then, after the base station adopts the energy-saving transmission method for the data of service A, when the terminal transmits the data of service A, the second energy efficiency parameter of service A can be measured according to the second duration. In this way, by comparing the difference between the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter, it can be known how much the energy efficiency of service A is optimized after using the energy-saving service.
[0104] 4) A second duration, the second duration being used to indicate a duration for performing the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement during the energy-saving transmission start-up period. Optionally, the second duration includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: a timer value, a duration.
[0105] The above-mentioned second duration is used to indicate how long it takes to measure during the energy-saving transmission period to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter. The second energy efficiency parameter can be used to compare with the first energy efficiency parameter obtained based on the first duration to determine the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service.
[0106] It should be noted that in order to ensure fairness in monitoring the energy saving effect of the terminal, it is assumed that the terminal's actions before and after energy saving are consistent, such as the applications (Application, app) running in the background and the screen display brightness.
[0107] 5) Second indication information, where the second indication information is used to indicate whether to report the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0108] In some implementations, after obtaining the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, the terminal may report the results to the network side, such as to the base station or core network equipment (which in turn provides the results to the base station), so that the base station can adjust the energy-saving transmission scheme between the base station and the terminal accordingly. For example, if the energy-saving effect is less than expected, the base station may adjust the transmission mode of terminal data to reduce the power consumption for transmitting the same amount of data.
[0109] In some embodiments, the second indication information is used to instruct the terminal to report the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement immediately after obtaining the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement. At this time, the second indication information can be an end of monitoring energy efficiency report (EMEER).
[0110] 6) A first condition, wherein the first condition is used to indicate a reporting condition for the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0111] In some embodiments, the terminal's reporting of the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can be triggered based on certain conditions, for example: periodic reporting, or reporting when the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement indicate that the terminal energy efficiency is higher than a certain threshold or lower than a certain threshold.
[0112] Optionally, the first condition is used to indicate at least one of the following:
[0113] Whether to report the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement;
[0114] Whether the results of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement are reported periodically;
[0115] Reporting the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement when the measurement cycle is met. At this time, the measurement value in the reported result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement may be all measurement values in the corresponding measurement cycle, or the average, maximum or minimum value of all measurement values;
[0116] The energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results are reported based on defined events. For example, when the power consumption is greater than or equal to the first threshold, or when the power consumption is less than or equal to the second threshold, the report is triggered. At this time, the measurement value in the reported energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement result may include the measurement value that triggers the corresponding threshold (i.e., the first threshold or the second threshold), and may also include more averages or other values such as maximum and minimum values.
[0117] In some embodiments, when the first information includes a first identifier and the first identifier is used to identify an energy-saving monitoring rule or an energy-saving measurement rule, the corresponding relationship between the energy-saving monitoring rule or the energy-saving measurement rule and the first identifier is shown in Table 1 below:
[0118] Table 1
[0119] In some implementations, when the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, one or more energy efficiency monitoring rules as shown in Table 1 above may be used.
[0120] For example, the first information may specifically include the information shown in Table 2 below:
[0121] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement according to the first information, and obtains a result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, including:
[0122] The terminal performs a first energy-saving monitoring or a first energy-saving measurement during a period in which the first object has data transmission and energy-saving transmission is not enabled to obtain a first energy efficiency parameter;
[0123] The terminal performs a second energy-saving monitoring or a second energy-saving measurement during data transmission of the first object and during a period when energy-saving transmission is turned on to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter;
[0124] The terminal determines a result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement according to the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter.
[0125] It should be noted that the measurement order of the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter can be: first measure the first energy efficiency parameter, then measure the second energy efficiency parameter; or first measure the second energy efficiency parameter, then measure the first energy efficiency parameter.
[0126] In some embodiments, the first energy efficiency parameter is measured first, and then the second energy efficiency parameter is measured. At this time, before the first object starts energy-saving transmission and when the first object has data transmission, the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement can be performed to obtain the first energy efficiency parameter; then, the energy-saving transmission of the first object is started, and thereafter, when the first object has data transmission, the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement is performed to obtain the second energy efficiency parameter.
[0127] In some embodiments, the second energy efficiency parameter is measured first, and then the first energy efficiency parameter is measured. At this time, after the energy-saving transmission of the first object is turned on, when the first object has data transmission, the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement can be performed to obtain the second energy efficiency parameter; thereafter, the energy-saving transmission of the first object can be temporarily turned off, and when the first object has data transmission, the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement can be performed to obtain the first energy efficiency parameter, and after measuring the first energy efficiency parameter, the energy-saving transmission of the first object is restored, that is, after turning on the energy-saving transmission of the first object, the energy-saving transmission of the first object is briefly turned off for a period of time, specifically for measuring the first energy efficiency parameter.
[0128] In some embodiments, the first energy-saving monitoring or the first energy-saving measurement may be energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on a first duration.
[0129] In some implementations, the second energy-saving monitoring or the second energy-saving measurement may be energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on a second duration.
[0130] For example: as shown in Figure 3, when the terminal has uplink (Uplink, UL) or downlink (Downlink, DL) data transmission, and before energy-saving transmission is turned on, the first energy efficiency parameter is measured based on the first duration; then, after energy-saving transmission is turned on, the second energy efficiency parameter is measured based on the second duration.
[0131] In some embodiments, the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter can be used to indicate the electric energy consumed by transmitting a certain amount of data, for example: the first energy efficiency parameter is equal to the ratio of the battery power consumed in the first time period to the amount of data transmitted in the first time period, or the ratio of the amount of data transmitted in the first time period to the battery power consumed in the first time period; the second energy efficiency parameter is equal to the ratio of the battery power consumed in the second time period to the amount of data transmitted in the second time period, or the ratio of the amount of data transmitted in the second time period to the battery power consumed in the second time period.
[0132] Of course, there are many ways to calculate the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter, which are not exhaustive here.
[0133] In this embodiment, the terminal determines the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement based on the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter. The first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter may be compared to determine how much energy efficiency the second energy efficiency parameter improves compared to the first energy efficiency parameter with the first energy efficiency parameter as a reference. Optionally, the energy efficiency improvement amount may be determined by using the ratio of the difference between the first energy efficiency parameter and the second energy efficiency parameter to the first energy efficiency parameter. The energy efficiency improvement amount may indicate the energy-saving effect of adopting the energy-saving service compared to not adopting the energy-saving service, or the energy efficiency improvement amount may be used to calculate how much power is saved by adopting the energy-saving service compared to not adopting the energy-saving service. For example, assuming that the second energy efficiency parameter can save 0.1% of battery power for each unit of data transmitted compared to the first energy efficiency parameter, it can be calculated that when the terminal transmits n units of data using the energy-saving service, n*(0.1%) of battery power is saved.
[0134] It should be noted that in order to ensure the accuracy of the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement, other energy consumption parameters on the terminal that are not related to energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement are consistent during the first time period and the second time period. For example, energy consumption parameters such as apps running in the background of the terminal and display brightness are consistent during the first time period and the second time period.
[0135] To ensure that the energy consumption parameters of the terminal's background apps, display brightness, and other parameters are consistent between the first and second durations, the following methods can be used:
[0136] 1. Select the time periods when the two terminals have the same energy consumption parameters such as apps running in the background and display brightness as the first and second time periods;
[0137] 2. Measure and record the energy consumption adjustment parameters corresponding to the energy consumption parameters such as the terminal candidate running apps and display brightness in advance. When the energy consumption parameters such as the terminal background running apps and display brightness are inconsistent during the first and second time periods, use the energy consumption adjustment parameters corresponding to the actual terminal background running apps, display brightness and other energy consumption parameters to adjust the energy consumption values during the first and second time periods to eliminate the interference caused by the inconsistency of energy consumption parameters such as the terminal candidate running apps and display brightness.
[0138] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs a first energy-saving monitoring or a first energy-saving measurement during a period in which the first object has data transmission and energy-saving transmission is not enabled to obtain a first energy efficiency parameter, including:
[0139] The terminal obtains a first energy consumption value within a first duration, wherein the first object has data transmission within the first duration and energy-saving transmission is not enabled for the first object;
[0140] During a period in which the first object has data transmission and energy-saving transmission is not enabled, the terminal obtains first monitoring data of the first object within the first duration, where the first monitoring data includes at least one of the following: the number of messages carrying service data transmitted, the transmission traffic, and the amount of data transmitted;
[0141] The terminal determines a first energy efficiency parameter according to the first energy consumption value and the first monitoring data.
[0142] In some embodiments, when it is detected that the first object has data transmission and the first object has not enabled energy-saving transmission, a first timer can be started, the timing duration of the first timer is a first duration, and a first energy-saving monitoring or a first energy-saving measurement is performed during the operation of the first timer.
[0143] In some implementations, the first energy consumption value may be equal to the difference between the battery power at the end time of the first duration and the battery power at the start time of the first duration.
[0144] In some embodiments, the battery level can be obtained based on the terminal battery level sensing by a modem. For example, the modem can know whether the terminal is currently charging, the remaining battery percentage of the terminal, etc. The terminal battery level can also be fed back to the edge operating system (such as TE) or the server operating system (such as OS) via a modem (Attention, AT) command. For example, the AT command "Battery charge + CBC" is used by the mobile terminal (Mobile Terminal, MT) to return the battery connection status (battery powered; battery connected but not charging...) and the battery level (no power or remaining battery percentage (1-100%)).
[0145] In some embodiments, the first energy efficiency parameter may reflect the amount of power consumed when transmitting a certain number of messages, traffic, or data. For messages, traffic, or data of the same data, the less power consumed, the better the energy efficiency.
[0146] In this embodiment, the first energy efficiency parameter can be determined based on the number of messages carrying business data transmitted within the first time period, the transmission traffic, the amount of data transmitted, and the power consumed within the first time period, which can simplify the measurement process of the first energy efficiency parameter.
[0147] As an optional implementation manner, the terminal performs second energy-saving monitoring or second energy-saving measurement during data transmission of the first object and during the period when energy-saving transmission is turned on to obtain a second energy efficiency parameter, including:
[0148] The terminal obtains a second energy consumption value within a second time period, wherein the first object has data transmission within the second time period and the first object enables energy-saving transmission;
[0149] During data transmission by the first object and the energy-saving transmission is enabled, the terminal obtains second monitoring data of the first object within the second duration, where the second monitoring data includes at least one of the following: the number of messages carrying business data transmitted, the transmission traffic, and the amount of data transmitted;
[0150] The terminal determines a second energy efficiency parameter according to the second energy consumption value and the second monitoring data.
[0151] In some embodiments, when it is detected that the first object has data transmission and the first object starts energy-saving transmission, a second timer can be started, the timing duration of the second timer is a second duration, and a second energy-saving monitoring or a second energy-saving measurement is performed during the operation of the second timer.
[0152] In some embodiments, the second energy consumption value may be equal to the battery power consumed in the second time period, or may be equal to the difference between the battery power at the end time of the second time period and the battery power at the start time of the second time period.
[0153] In this embodiment, the method of obtaining the second energy efficiency parameter is similar to the above-mentioned method of obtaining the first energy efficiency parameter, and will not be described in detail here.
[0154] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:
[0155] The terminal determines to enable energy-saving transmission of the second object when receiving third indication information from the first network side device, wherein the third indication information is used to indicate enabling energy-saving transmission mode, and the first network side device includes an access network device providing services for the terminal;
[0156] The second object includes the first object.
[0157] In some implementations, the first network-side device may be a RAN device that provides services for the terminal, such as a base station.
[0158] In some implementations, the third indication information is used to instruct to enable the energy-saving transmission mode of the second object.
[0159] In some embodiments, the second object includes the first object, including:
[0160] 1) The first object is the same as the second object, that is, energy-saving monitoring or measurement operations are performed for each session or service in which the energy-saving transmission mode is enabled;
[0161] Optionally, when determining to start energy-saving transmission of the second object, the terminal may determine the first information, or request the first information from the network side, or obtain the first information according to the protocol agreement, and perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on the second object based on the first information.
[0162] 2) The first object is part of the second object, that is, energy-saving monitoring or measurement operations are performed only on some sessions or services that have energy-saving transmission modes enabled, and the energy-saving effects of the remaining sessions or services that have energy-saving transmission modes enabled may not be monitored or measured.
[0163] Optionally, when determining to start energy-saving transmission of the second object, the terminal may wait for the network side to send first information, and perform energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement on the first object indicated by the first information.
[0164] In some embodiments, the third indication information can be carried in a data packet transmitted through the second object. In this way, when the terminal determines that the data packet transmitted through the second object carries the third indication information, it can determine that the first network side device provides energy-saving services for the second object.
[0165] In some other implementations, the third indication information is carried in a first signaling from the first network-side device. In this case, the first network-side device needs to use the first signaling to indicate to the terminal the second object for which the energy-saving service is provided.
[0166] Optionally, the first signaling may be any signaling sent by the first network-side device to the terminal, which may reuse existing signaling or be a newly added signaling. For example, the first signaling may be an existing radio resource control (RRC) message, a newly added RRC message, or a broadcast message. The specific type of the first signaling is not limited herein. In some embodiments, after the first network-side device sends the first signaling to the terminal, the terminal may obtain the third indication information from the bottom layer.
[0167] It should be noted that, compared with the above two methods of transmitting the third indication information, the method of carrying the third indication information in the data packet transmitted through the second object can further simplify the indication content of the third indication information, such as the third indication information does not need to indicate the second object.
[0168] As an optional embodiment, the method further includes:
[0169] The terminal sends a first message to a second network side device, where the first message carries energy-saving requirement information of the terminal, and the second network side device includes a core network device.
[0170] The energy-saving demand information is used to reflect the energy-saving service or energy-saving mode that the terminal wants to use.
[0171] In some embodiments, the energy-saving demand information includes at least one of the following:
[0172] Fourth indication information, where the fourth indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal supports energy saving, for example, indicating whether the terminal supports energy-saving transmission;
[0173] fifth indication information, where the fifth indication information is used to indicate whether the terminal supports the energy-saving mode or to request the use of the energy-saving mode, wherein the energy-saving mode refers to an operating mode when the terminal adopts an energy-saving transmission mode;
[0174] The energy-saving parameters used when energy-saving transmission is enabled include, for example, at least one of an energy-saving session request and an energy-saving parameter of a requested QoS flow granularity, wherein the energy-saving session request is used to indicate whether a session is requested to be established as an energy-saving session.
[0175] In some embodiments, the energy-saving parameters may be parameters used to enable energy-saving transmission for an energy-saving object (such as a second object), which may include at least one of the following: energy-saving indication, energy-saving ratio, energy-saving level, transmission rate, energy-saving mode duration, and deactivation time of energy-saving mode.
[0176] In this embodiment, the terminal reports energy-saving demand information to the second network side device, so that the second network side device can refer to the energy-saving service or energy-saving mode desired by the terminal, or the energy-saving parameters used, and provide the terminal with first information, so that the terminal can more accurately monitor or measure the energy-saving effect of the energy-saving service based on the first information.
[0177] In some embodiments, the first message includes at least one of the following:
[0178] Session management messages, such as PDU session establishment or PDU session modification request messages;
[0179] A control plane message, wherein the control plane message is used to transmit first management-related information between the terminal and the control node; the first management-related information includes at least one of session management-related information and task management-related information.
[0180] In one implementation, the terminal may reuse existing session management messages to report energy-saving requirement information.
[0181] In another embodiment, the control node may be configured to exchange first management related information with a Next Generation Radio Access Network (NG-RAN).
[0182] Optionally, the first management related information may specifically include at least one of the following: mobility management related information, connection management related information, session management related information, task management related information and policy control related information.
[0183] Optionally, a new control node may be added or existing network elements such as SMF may be enhanced so that the terminal can report energy-saving demand information through a control plane message between the terminal and the control node.
[0184] As an optional implementation, the method further includes:
[0185] The terminal sends the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network side device or the second network side device;
[0186] The first network side device includes an access network device that provides services for the terminal, and the second network side device includes a core network device.
[0187] In some implementations, the terminal may directly report the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network-side device, or report the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the first network-side device through a second network-side device, so that the second network-side device adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme based on the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement. For example, the terminal sends the results of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the base station, and the base station adjusts the energy-saving transmission scheme of the terminal accordingly to achieve better energy consumption and efficiency.
[0188] Optionally, the terminal reporting the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement may include: the terminal providing the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement to the bottom layer.
[0189] In this embodiment, the result of energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement can also assist the network side in adjusting the energy-saving transmission solution of the terminal.
[0190] Referring to FIG4 , an embodiment of the present application further provides another terminal energy-saving measurement method, wherein the execution subject of the terminal energy-saving measurement method may be a first network-side device.

If not, the energy-saving transmission method can be adjusted.

[0216] Referring to Figure 5, an embodiment of the present application further provides a method for configuring terminal energy-saving measurements, wherein the execution subject of the method for configuring terminal energy-saving measurements may be a second network-side device. As shown in Figure 5, the method for configuring terminal energy-saving measurements includes the following steps:

[0239] It should be noted that the various contents of the above energy-saving demand information and the various contents of the first message in this embodiment have the same meaning and function as the various contents of the energy-saving demand information and the various contents of the first message in the above terminal side method embodiment, and are not specifically limited here.
[0240] In this embodiment, the second network-side device determines the first information according to the second information including the energy-saving requirement information reported by the terminal, so that the first information can be more closely matched with the energy-saving requirement information of the terminal.
[0241] In some implementations, the second network-side device determines the first information based on the second information, including:
[0242] The second network-side device initiates a first process according to the energy-saving requirement information of the terminal to obtain second information, wherein the first process is used to associate the first object with the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement strategy;
[0243] The second network-side device generates the first information according to the second information.
[0244] For example: assuming that the second network side device includes AMF, SMF and PCF, when SMF receives the energy-saving requirement information of the terminal through AMF, it can initiate a session policy association establishment or modification process and provide PCF with at least one of the following: the fourth indication information, the fifth indication information, and PCF can generate the first information based on this.
[0245] In some embodiments, the second information includes at least one of the following:
[0246] a third identifier, the third identifier being used to identify the energy-saving monitoring strategy or the energy-saving measurement strategy;
[0247] first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate the first object or the second identifier, where the second identifier is the identifier of the first object, and the first object is the object of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement;
[0248] a first duration, where the first duration is used to indicate a duration for performing a first energy-saving monitoring or a first energy-saving measurement during a period when energy-saving transmission is not enabled;
[0249] a second duration, where the second duration is used to indicate a duration for performing a second energy-saving monitoring or a second energy-saving measurement during the period when energy-saving transmission is enabled;

[0251] The first condition is used to indicate a reporting condition for the result of the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement.
[0252] In some embodiments, the second information may be the same as or corresponding to the first information. For example, when the second information includes a third identifier, the second network side device can thereby obtain the energy-saving monitoring strategy or energy-saving measurement strategy indicated by the third identifier, and obtain the energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules corresponding to the energy-saving monitoring strategy or energy-saving measurement strategy.
[0253] For example: the second network side device includes SMF and PCF. When non-dynamic Policy and Charging Control (PCC) rules are used, PCF can directly send a third identifier to SMF, and SMF determines specific energy-saving monitoring rules or energy-saving measurement rules based on the third identifier.
[0254] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:
[0255] The second network-side device receives the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement result from the terminal.
[0256] In some implementations, after receiving the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement result from the terminal, the second network-side device may send the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement result to the first network-side device.
[0257] In some embodiments, after receiving the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results from the terminal, the second network side device can judge whether the energy-saving effect indicated by the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results meets expectations, such as whether the energy-saving requirements of the terminal are met. If the judgment result is not as expected, the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results can be sent to the first network side device, so that the first network side device adjusts the energy-saving transmission plan according to the energy-saving monitoring or energy-saving measurement results.
