[0024] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0025] In the description of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, " / " means "or", for example, A / B can mean A or B. "And / or" in this article is merely a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, "at least one" means one or more, and "a plurality" means two or more. Words such as "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity and execution order, and words such as "first" and "second" do not limit them to be necessarily different.

[0026] It should be noted that in this disclosure, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described in this disclosure as "exemplary" or "for example" should not be construed as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner.

[0027] With the continuous advancement of communication technologies, from second-generation to fifth-generation mobile communications, the performance and efficiency of communication systems have significantly improved. However, as people's demand for communication continues to grow, existing communication technologies are no longer able to meet these increasingly complex needs. This is especially true in urban environments, where high-rise buildings, dense crowds, and diverse business needs pose significant challenges to communication. Therefore, to meet future communication needs, 6G-oriented communication methods are urgently needed to be proposed and implemented.

[0028] Furthermore, 6G networks and terminals are expected to include artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. This capability will provide predictive and reasoning capabilities, potentially serving as a foundational capability for 6G, improving network performance and simplifying networks.

[0096] The measurement restrictions include restrictions on channel measurement in the time domain or restrictions on interference measurement in the time domain.

[0097] In some embodiments, the aperiodic mode based on the first mode may be an aperiodic mode of the AI ​​mode, and the aperiodic mode based on the second mode may be an aperiodic mode of the non-AI mode. RSRP includes a reference signal received power of layer 1.

[0098] In some embodiments, when configuring CSI reporting, the base station configures the CSI reporting content based on the time node configuration, including the specific CSI information content to be reported, the reporting time node, and the subband information. The UE reports the corresponding CSI content at the corresponding time node according to the configuration.

[0099] In some embodiments, the configuration information of the physical uplink shared channel includes at least one of the following: frequency resource allocation; time domain resource allocation; number of repetitions; frequency hopping indication; modulation and coding scheme; new data indication; redundancy version; hybrid automatic repeat request process number; transmission power control command for scheduling the physical uplink shared channel; supplementary uplink indication;

[0100] Demodulation reference signal mapping type; scrambling identifier; modulation and coding strategy table; physical resource block bundling type; number of multiple-input multiple-output layers; scheduling offset; rate matching parameters.

[0101] In some embodiments, the configuration information of the physical uplink control channel includes at least one of the following: feedback mode information of the physical uplink control channel; time-frequency domain resource information of the physical uplink control channel; codebook information; format information; frequency hopping information; physical uplink control channel resources for preset purposes; and power control information.

[0102] The feedback mode information of the physical uplink control channel is used to determine whether the feedback mode of the physical uplink control channel is only NACK feedback, only ACK feedback, or ACK / NACK feedback, and to determine for which function the PUCCH feedback is for, and to determine early termination.

[0103] Only NACK feedback mechanism: In this mechanism, if the terminal fails to correctly receive a PDCCH / PDSCH, the terminal provides NACK information to the base station. Otherwise, the terminal does not provide HARQ-ACK feedback information.

[0104] Only ACK feedback mechanism: In this mechanism, if the terminal correctly receives a PDCCH / PDSCH, the terminal provides the corresponding ACK information to the base station; otherwise, the terminal does not provide NACK feedback information.

[0105] The only NACK feedback or only ACK feedback mechanism can reduce the number of HARQ-ACK feedback information transmissions because the probability of a PDCCH / PDSCH being correctly decoded is very high.

[0106] The time-frequency domain resource information of the physical uplink control channel includes at least one of the following: the number of time-frequency domain resources, the location of the time-frequency domain resources, and the index of the time-frequency domain resources. The number of time-frequency domain resources includes the number of time-domain resources or the number of frequency-domain resources, such as the number of symbols and the number of RBs / REs. The location of the time-frequency domain resources includes the location of the time-domain resources or the location of the frequency-domain resources, including the time-domain or frequency-domain resource location determined based on the starting reference point, offset, number of time-frequency domain resources, and bitmap. The time-frequency domain resource index is the number of a time-frequency domain resource unit determined based on the number or index.

[0107] The physical uplink control channel resources for preset purposes include at least one of the following: physical uplink control channel resources for downlink semi-persistent scheduling of physical downlink shared channel hybrid automatic repeat request feedback, physical uplink control channel resources for sending scheduling requests, and physical uplink control channel resources for feedback of channel state information.

[0108] In some embodiments, the configuration information of the control channel corresponding to PUSCH includes at least one of the following: period; starting position; search space identifier; frequency domain resources; downlink control information format; aggregation level; number of PDCCH candidate sets; and PDCCH candidate set position.

[0109] In some embodiments, the UE may predict future cell switching, cell selection, or PLMN selection or perform other first actions based on its own movement path, schedule, etc. Based on these predictions, the UE may send relevant information to the base station so that the base station can perform corresponding configuration and adjustments.

[0110] In some embodiments, the configuration of the base station includes at least one of the following: time information, cell information, beam information, PLMN information, measurement requirement information, and measurement signal information.

[0111] In other embodiments, the configuration of the base station includes at least one of the following: time node information, cell information, beam information, switching cell information, PLMN information, and measurement requirement information.

[0112] The measurement requirement information includes the measurement period, number of measurement samples, etc., so that the base station can understand the UE's measurement requirements. The measurement signal information includes the measurement signal period, resources, etc., so that the base station can perform accurate measurement configuration.

[0113] In some embodiments, the information reported by the UE includes desired cell information, cell beam information, PLMN information, measurement period, and time information, including time length or time node information. This information helps the base station better understand the UE's needs and perform corresponding configuration and scheduling based on these needs.

[0114] In some embodiments, the information reported by the UE may occur after preset parameters or AI models / functions are activated or enabled. These parameters or AI models / functions can be configured and adjusted according to the current state and needs of the UE to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the communication node.

[0115] In some embodiments, the UE trigger message can be implemented based on PUSCH scheduling and UE reporting.

[0116] In some embodiments, the UE predicts uplink channel transmission and transmits information related to uplink data services at a specific time point to the base station. The base station then determines uplink configuration information based on the information related to the uplink data services at that specific time point. The information related to the uplink data services includes transport block size (TBS), physical downlink control channel information, timing information, scheduling information, and BWP or frequency information. This information helps the base station better understand the needs and conditions of the UE, thereby more effectively scheduling uplink data transmission.

[0117] For example, the UE reports time-based TBS information, and the base station performs scheduling based on the UE's reported time-based TBS information. The TBS information indicates the data block size that the UE expects to transmit. By reporting the time-based TBS, the base station can schedule based on the UE's needs, ensuring efficient and accurate data transmission.

[0118] As another example, if the blind detection of PDCCH corresponding to the scheduled PUSCH is to be reduced, the terminal can send PDCCH information based on the time node to the base station. The PDCCH information includes at least the size, format, aggregation level of the DCI, the number of candidate sets corresponding to the aggregation level, and the position of the candidate sets.

[0119] As another example, the UE can provide relevant parameters in the PDCCH, such as the desired number of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) layers, modulation order, and coding scheme, based on its travel distance and speed, as well as its schedule. This information helps the base station better understand the conditions and needs of the UE and perform appropriate scheduling based on the UE's priority.

[0120] In another example, the UE may also predict the BWP or frequency point it is in to achieve energy saving. By selecting an appropriate BWP or frequency point, the UE can reduce energy consumption and extend the battery life of the device.

[0121] In some embodiments, the terminal selects or activates a configuration in the first configuration information based on the first information. In some embodiments, the terminal feeds back or reports relevant information to the base station based on the first configuration information determined by the first information, so that the base station can make adjustments in subsequent configurations and improve system efficiency.

[0122] In some embodiments, the resource information included in the first information includes a first resource set, and the resource configuration information of the first configuration information includes a second resource set.

[0123] In some embodiments, the time domain position of the first resource set is a subset of the time domain position of the second resource set; or, the time domain position of the second resource set is a subset of the time domain position of the first resource set; or, the time domain position of the first resource set is before the time domain position of the second resource set; or, the time domain position range of the first resource set includes the time domain position of the second resource set.

[0124] In some embodiments, the frequency domain position of the first resource set is a subset of the frequency domain position of the second resource set; or, the frequency domain position of the second resource set is a subset of the time domain position of the first resource set; or, the frequency domain position of the first resource set is above or below the frequency domain position of the second resource set; or, the frequency domain position range of the first resource set includes the frequency domain position of the second resource set.

[0125] In some embodiments, the first resource set is used for resources in the first mode, and the second resource set is used for resources in the second mode; or, the first resource set is obtained according to the first parameter configuration, and the second resource set is obtained according to the second parameter configuration; or, the second resource set is effective when the first resource set is not configured, or the first information is not a corresponding value, or the second resource set is configured.

[0126] Among them, the first mode can be AI mode, and the second mode can be non-AI mode.

[0127] In some embodiments, a first behavior is performed according to the first configuration information, where the first behavior includes training, supervision, measurement, synchronization, and cell search.

[0128] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 3, the terminal obtains the first information at time t0. The time domain information included in the first information includes the starting time node t1, offset, period, time window, and end time node tn; the first configuration information includes resource information cell information, neighboring cell information, carrier information, and cell priority.

[0129] The terminal determines the starting position of the first measurement cycle as t2 based on the starting time node t1 and the offset. The measurement duration in the first measurement cycle is a time window. During the time window, measurements are performed based on the configured cell information, neighboring cell information, carrier information or cell priority. The number of measurements is M, or the number of samples measured in each cycle is M. The measured indicators include the signal's RSRP, RSRQ, received signal strength indicator (RSSI), or other indicators that reflect or are based on signal strength and signal quality. The measurement includes cell measurement, neighboring cell measurement, same-frequency measurement, different-frequency measurement, and inter-RAT measurement.

[0130] Inter-RAT measurements refer to measurements between different radio access technologies (RATs). In mobile communication networks, not only do base stations and terminals using the same RAT need to communicate, but base stations and terminals using different RATs may also need to communicate to achieve interoperability and network convergence. Therefore, inter-RAT measurements are necessary to evaluate the communication performance and compatibility between different RATs.

[0131] For example, as shown in Figure 4, the frequency selection for measurement is based on the configuration and time node. That is, the frequency selection for measurement may be different at different time nodes. For example, for measurements within a cell, the frequency selection may be different at different time nodes.

[0132] The terminal obtains first information at time t0. The first information includes time domain information such as start time node t1, offset, period, time window, number of periods, and number of samples M. The first configuration information includes resource information such as cell information, neighboring cell information, carrier information, cell priority, and frequency information. The frequency information includes at least one of a frequency, a frequency table, and a frequency set.

[0133] Based on the first information, the terminal may measure different frequencies at different time points. Alternatively, based on the configuration of the base station, the terminal may measure different frequencies, frequency lists, or frequency sets at different time points. Cell handover / cell selection / cell reselection is performed based on the measurement results of the frequencies. The frequencies and cells are associated with each other.

[0134] In another exemplary embodiment, the terminal obtains time domain information and resource information configured by the base station. Resource information includes beam speed information, neighboring cell information, carrier information, cell priority, and beam information including beam direction and beam angle for cells corresponding to different time domain information. Time domain information includes the starting time node, offset, period, and time window. Based on the time domain information and resource information, the terminal will perform measurements based on the beam speed information of the corresponding cell at different time nodes, or perform cell handover / cell selection / cell reselection based on the measurement results.

[0135] In another example, the terminal obtains the time domain information and resource information configured by the base station, and the resource information includes TRP information corresponding to different time domain information; the terminal will perform measurements according to the configured TRP information at different time nodes based on the time domain information and resource information, or perform cell switching / cell selection / cell reselection based on the measurement results.

[0136] In some embodiments, executing the first behavior according to the first configuration information includes: executing the first behavior according to the first configuration information when a first preset condition is met.

[0137] In some embodiments, when the first preset condition is not met, the first behavior is performed according to the second configuration information, where the second configuration information includes measurement-related configuration information and / or uplink configuration information.

[0138] In some embodiments, executing the first behavior according to the first configuration information includes: executing the first behavior according to the first configuration information when a first preset condition is met.

[0139] In some embodiments, when the first preset condition is not met, the first behavior is executed according to predefined or default first configuration information.

[0140] In some embodiments, the second configuration information is default configuration information. In some embodiments, the first configuration information includes the second configuration information. In some embodiments, default information or predefined information of the first configuration information is the second configuration information.

[0141] In some embodiments, the first preset condition is based on at least one of the following conditions: threshold value; reference value; mobility; stationary; cell edge; cell center; received activation signaling; received deactivation signaling; feedback ACK; feedback NACK; reference signal received power; reference signal received quality; when the first behavior is executed, the value of the first information is the same as the value of the first information associated with the first configuration information.

[0142] The mobility includes conditions for determining whether the UE is stationary, moving, moving at a low speed, or moving at a high speed, and is used to determine whether the UE supports preset functions.

[0143] The preset functions supported by the UE include support for AI-based measurements and support for low power wake-up signal (LP-WUS) / low power synchronization signal (LP-SS) / sequence measurements.

[0144] For example, when the measured signal indicator of a certain cell is greater than a certain threshold value, it is considered that the cell can be selected for cell handover / cell selection / cell reselection.

[0145] For example, if the measured signal indicators of a cell meet predefined rules, the cell is considered suitable for cell handover / cell selection / cell reselection. The predefined rules include: S criterion (S), mobility criteria such as stationary, low mobility, cell center or cell edge.

[0146] In some embodiments, determining the first configuration information according to the first information includes: when the first information is a first value, determining the first configuration information according to the first value.

[0147] In some embodiments, determining the first configuration information according to the first information includes: when the first information is a second value, performing the second behavior according to the second configuration information or performing the second behavior according to the first configuration information.

[0148] Exemplarily, when the first information is a first value, first configuration information is determined based on the first value; and a first behavior is executed based on the first configuration information. When the first information is a second value, a second behavior is executed based on the second configuration information. Specifically, the first information can indicate different configuration information, and corresponding behaviors are executed based on the different configuration information.

[0149] Exemplarily, when the first information is a first value, the first configuration information is determined based on the first value; and based on the first configuration information, a first behavior is performed. When the first information is a second value, a second behavior is performed based on the first configuration information. That is, different first configuration information determined by different first information will result in different behaviors. For example, the first behavior is receiving, monitoring, detecting, sending, training, or supervision, and the second behavior is synchronization, measurement, or cell search. For example, the first behavior is synchronization, measurement, cell search, training, or supervision, and the second behavior is receiving, monitoring, detecting, or sending. In some embodiments, the first behavior and the second behavior are the same or different.

[0150] In some embodiments, the second behavior includes the first behavior. In some embodiments, the second behavior includes receiving, monitoring, detecting, sending, feedback, supervision, training, or reasoning.

[0151] In some embodiments, the first information is a first value used to indicate at least one of the following: a first time domain position, first cell information, first carrier information, first beam information, first transmission point information, first frequency information, first synchronization signal information, first reference signal information, and first position information; the first information is a second value used to indicate at least one of the following: a second time domain position, second cell information, second carrier information, second beam information, second transmission point information, second frequency information, second synchronization signal information, second reference signal information, and second position information.

[0152] Illustratively, at a first time domain location, the first cell information, the first carrier information, the first beam information, the first transmission point information, the first frequency information, the first synchronization signal information, the first reference signal information, or the first location, a first behavior is performed. At a second time domain location, the second cell information, the second carrier information, the second beam information, the second transmission point information, the second frequency information, the second synchronization signal information, the second reference signal information, and the second location, a second behavior is performed.

[0153] Exemplarily, measurement is performed at a first time domain location, a reference signal is received, training or supervision is performed, and data is transmitted or received at a second time domain location.

[0154] Exemplarily, synchronization is performed at a first time domain position, and a signal, such as PRACH, is sent at a second time domain position.

[0155] Exemplarily, measurement is performed at a first time domain location, and cell selection, cell switching, cell reselection, and public land mobile network selection are performed at a second time domain location.

[0156] For example, a relaxed measurement is performed at a first time domain position, and a normal measurement is performed at a second time domain position. The relaxed measurement has a longer measurement period.

[0157] In some embodiments, the second behavior is performed according to the second configuration information or the second behavior is performed according to the first configuration information, and the triggering conditions include at least one of the following: indicators during training or supervision; measured indicators; indicators of transmission success or failure; threshold values; reference values; mobility or stillness; cell edge; cell center; receipt of activation signaling; receipt of deactivation signaling; feedback ACK; feedback NACK.

[0158] Exemplarily, when the performance indicators of training or supervision do not meet the requirements, the measured RSRP, RSRQ do not meet the threshold, the success rate or failure rate does not meet the requirements, the size threshold value is greater than the reference, the stationary and low mobility conditions are not met, the cell center conditions are not met, the cell edge conditions are met, activation or deactivation signaling is received, and ACK / NACK is fed back, when at least one of the above conditions is met, the second behavior will be executed according to the second configuration information.

[0159] In some embodiments, performing a second behavior according to the second configuration information includes at least one of the following: the second behavior is different from the first behavior; the second behavior includes stopping the first behavior; the first behavior includes measurement, synchronization, cell search, training, or supervision, and the second behavior includes transmitting, sending, receiving signals or channels, monitoring control signals or channels, and backing off.

[0160] In some embodiments, when the first information is the second value, executing the second behavior according to the second configuration information or executing the second behavior according to the first configuration information includes: the second behavior includes the first behavior, or the second behavior is the same as the first behavior.

[0161] In some embodiments, performing the second action based on the first configuration information includes at least one of the following: the first configuration information includes default configuration information; the first configuration information includes default configuration information and measurement-related configuration information, uplink configuration information, or resource configuration information; the first configuration information includes at least one set of measurement-related configuration information, at least one set of uplink configuration information, or at least one set of resource configuration information; the first configuration information includes at least one set of synchronization signal parameter configuration, at least one set of measurement configuration, at least one set of cell configuration, at least one set of training resource configuration, or at least one set of supervision resource configuration; in some embodiments, a set of measurement-related configuration information includes at least one measurement-related configuration parameter, such as signal time-frequency resources, measurement period, number of measurement samples, and other related parameters. A set of uplink configuration information includes at least one parameter required for PUSCH or other uplink signal transmission, such as time-frequency resources, frequency hopping, power, and other parameter information. Other sets of information are similar.

[0162] In some embodiments, the first node performs the second behavior and the first behavior according to default configuration information and non-default configuration information of the first configuration information.

[0163] In some embodiments, executing the second action according to the default configuration information of the first configuration information needs to be based on a trigger condition. The trigger condition is based on at least one of the following: an indicator during training or supervision; a measured indicator; an indicator of transmission success or failure; a threshold value; a reference value; mobility or stationary; a cell edge; a cell center; receiving activation signaling; receiving deactivation signaling; feedback ACK; feedback NACK.

[0164] In some embodiments, the resource information included in the first information includes a first resource set, and the resource configuration information of the first configuration information includes a second resource set.

[0165] In some embodiments, the time domain position of the first resource set is a subset of the time domain position of the second resource set; or, the time domain position of the second resource set is a subset of the time domain position of the first resource set; or, the time domain position of the first resource set is before the time domain position of the second resource set; or, the time domain position range of the first resource set includes the time domain position of the second resource set.

[0166] In some embodiments, the frequency domain position of the first resource set is a subset of the frequency domain position of the second resource set; or, the frequency domain position of the second resource set is a subset of the time domain position of the first resource set; or, the frequency domain position of the first resource set is above or below the frequency domain position of the second resource set; or, the frequency domain position range of the first resource set includes the frequency domain position of the second resource set.

[0167] In some embodiments, a second resource set of first configuration information is determined based on the first resource set, and a first behavior is performed based on the first configuration information.

[0168] Exemplarily, the second reference signal resource of the first configuration information is determined based on the first reference signal resource of the first resource set, and synchronization, measurement, cell selection, cell switching, cell reselection, public land mobile network selection, cell search, beam switching, synchronization signal switching, fallback, transmission, reception, monitoring, detection, sending, training, or supervision is performed based on the second reference signal.

[0169] Exemplarily, a second measurement resource of the second resource set is determined according to the first measurement resource of the first resource set, and measurement is performed according to the second measurement resource.

[0170] In some embodiments, the resource location of the first resource set and the resource location of the second resource set are associated with each other, or the resource location of the second resource set is determined based on the first resource set.

[0171] In some embodiments, the first resource set is used for resources in the first mode, and the second resource set is used for resources in the second mode; or, the first resource set is obtained according to the first parameter configuration, and the second resource set is obtained according to the second parameter configuration; or, the second resource set is effective when the first resource set is not configured, or the first information is not a corresponding value, or the second resource set is configured.

[0172] Exemplarily, the first resource set is a reference signal resource for an AI mode or a reference signal resource for a measurement relaxation mode, and the second resource set is a reference signal resource for a non-AI mode, or the second resource set is a reference signal resource for a normal measurement mode. The second node performs training based on the second resource set. Alternatively, the second node receives a reference signal for a non-AI mode or a reference signal for a normal measurement mode based on the second resource set. In this case, the second resource set is determined based on the time domain information or resource information of the first information.

[0173] Exemplarily, the first resource set is a reference signal resource for a non-AI mode or a normal measurement mode, and the second resource set is a reference signal resource for an AI mode or a measurement relaxation mode. The second node performs supervision, training, measurement, and transmission based on the second resource set. In some embodiments, under certain conditions, the first node needs to fall back to performing supervision, training, and measurement based on the first resource set. In some embodiments, the second resource set is obtained based on the first resource set, that is, the first configuration information is obtained based on the first information.

[0174] Exemplarily, the first resource set is obtained based on a first parameter configuration, and the second resource set is obtained based on a second parameter configuration. The first information determines the second parameter but is not equivalent to the first parameter. For example, the second resource set configuration is based on a time node, and the first resource set is to exit the default resource configuration based on the time node, that is, the first resource set.

[0175] Exemplarily, the second resource set takes effect when the first resource set is not configured. More specifically, first configuration information is determined based on first information, such as the first resource set, including that the second resource set takes effect when the first resource set is not configured. The first node transmits a signal or performs other actions based on the first configuration information, i.e., the second resource set.

[0176] Exemplarily, when the first information does not have a corresponding value, the second resource set takes effect. For example, when the corresponding cell information at the current time node does not have a corresponding value, the second resource set takes effect, such as performing measurements based on the second reference signal, performing cell searches, cell handovers, cell reselections, and PLMN selection based on the second resource set. For example, when the resource information value of the first information at the current time node is incorrect, the action is performed based on the second resource set or the default resource set.

[0177] In some embodiments, the resource configuration information includes at least one of radio resource control configuration, power configuration, and physical downlink control channel monitoring parameter set configuration.

[0178] In some embodiments, there are different wireless resource control configurations, power configurations, and physical downlink control channel monitoring parameter set configurations at different time domain locations. The first configuration information is determined based on the above configurations, and PDCCH detection, PDSCH reception, PUSCH transmission, PRACH sending, and other behaviors are performed based on the first configuration information.

[0179] It is understandable that in AI measurement mode, the measurement requirements can be relaxed. This mainly involves the following three aspects:

[0180] Longer prediction intervals: For situations where long-term predictions are needed, AI can help us reduce the need for frequent measurements, thereby saving resources and improving efficiency.

[0181] Long-term forecasting over continuous time periods: AI can predict future trends from continuous data streams without the need for frequent measurements. This helps reduce the measurement burden and improve forecast accuracy.

[0182] Future time prediction based on multiple samples: Leveraging AI's machine learning capabilities, patterns can be extracted from multiple samples to predict future time points. This type of prediction can improve measurement reliability and accuracy.

[0183] To ensure the validity of the measurement, we need to ensure that the predicted radio resource management (RRM) measurement results still meet the set threshold requirements when using the preset measurement model or function in AI measurement mode.

[0184] In some embodiments, the AI ​​measurement mode has a flexible measurement period. When a preset condition is met, the measurement period is T1; otherwise, the measurement period is T2, where T1 is generally greater than T2, to reduce the number of measurements performed by the terminal and save power consumption.

[0185] The preset conditions can include whether the indicators (such as RSRP and RSRQ) within a period of time are greater than the threshold value, or whether the probability of these indicators being less than the threshold value is greater than P1. In this way, the measurement period can be adjusted according to the actual situation to better balance measurement requirements and resource consumption.

[0186] In addition, in AI measurement mode, the measurement cycle can be set to T1 for some periods of time and T2 for other periods of time. This dynamic adjustment of the measurement cycle can be adaptively adjusted according to changes in data flow and demand, further improving measurement efficiency and accuracy.

[0187] In some embodiments, the second configuration information and the first configuration information are configured by the same parameters, or by different parameters.

[0188] In some embodiments, the first information also includes: artificial intelligence related parameters.

[0189] In some embodiments, the artificial intelligence-related parameters include at least one of the following: an activation parameter, a supervision parameter, a training parameter, a model parameter, and a fallback parameter;

[0190] Among them, the activation parameter is used to activate or deactivate the first behavior; the supervision parameter is used to activate or deactivate the supervision mode, in which the first communication node needs to feedback parameter information or the second communication node will be configured with a third resource set for supervision; the training parameter is used to activate or deactivate the training mode, in which the second communication node will be configured with a fourth resource set for training; the model parameter includes at least one of the following: model index, function index, model required parameters, beam information, power information, antenna information; the fallback parameter is used to determine whether to fall back from the first behavior to the second behavior.

[0191] The activation parameter is used to activate or deactivate the first behavior.

[0192] The following is a detailed description of the activation parameters:

[0193] Signaling for activating different model identifiers (Model IDs) or function identifiers (Functionality IDs). When different AI models or functions need to be activated, preset signaling can be used to indicate the activated Model ID or Functionality ID. For example, when activating a Model ID for measurement relaxation, the media access control element (MAC CE) can be used directly to indicate the activated Model ID for corresponding configuration and operation.

[0194] Parameters used to activate AI mode under a preset function. In some cases, we may want to activate AI mode under a preset function. For example, MAC CE can be used to indicate AI mode under measurement so that AI optimization and adjustments can be applied during the measurement process.

[0195] Parameters used to activate training mode. Training mode is a period of time that can be entered before or during AI assistance. This training mode allows the AI ​​system to learn and train based on real-world data and scenarios, enabling better predictions and decision-making. Based on the evaluation results in training mode, we can decide whether to enter AI assistance mode or deactivate it.

[0196] Parameters used to activate supervised mode. To ensure the accuracy and reliability of AI-assisted training, supervised mode can be activated. In this mode, the UE needs to report the results of the training mode for the base station to evaluate and determine. If the base station determines that the AI-assisted training is reliable, it can further activate corresponding AI-assisted functions, such as measurement relaxation.

[0197] Parameters used to activate different prediction methods. Different prediction methods can be activated under the same Model ID or Functionality ID to meet different application requirements. For example, the Model ID or Functionality ID may be used for measurement, channel estimation, or other purposes. By activating the corresponding prediction method, flexible configuration and application can be achieved based on actual needs.

[0198] In this way, activation parameters provide flexible and customized configuration options. By properly selecting and using these parameters, AI models can be activated and applied according to actual scenarios and needs to improve network performance and user experience.

[0199] The supervision parameter is used to activate or deactivate a supervision mode. In the supervision mode, the terminal needs to feed back parameter information or the base station configures a third resource set for supervision.

[0200] The following is a detailed description of the supervision parameters:

[0201] For example, as shown in Figure 5, to determine whether measurement relaxation is feasible, after the network sends the test resource set, the UE side evaluates and monitors the accuracy of the AI ​​model by feedback of the predicted RSRP / RSRQ results based on the second resource and the RSRP / RSRQ results based on the first resource. Only after feedback confirms that the prediction based on the Model ID is accurate does the UE begin to enter the measurement relaxation state. The second resource is a subset of the first resource, or the second resource location is a subset of the first resource location.

[0202] In another exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figure 6, the first resource is the full set, and the other resources used for AI prediction are subsets. The UE reports the RSRP / RSRQ prediction results of the second, third, and fourth resources for the full set location, the RSRP / RSRQ results for the actual full set location, or the difference between the predicted and actual values ​​for the corresponding location.

[0203] It's understandable that resource utilization is crucial in frequency and spatial domain prediction. These resources include beam direction, time domain resources, and frequency domain resources. Reports can include the reference and actual values ​​of metrics (such as RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI), or the difference between the two. These metrics can measure parameters such as signal strength and quality.

[0204] Reporting can be divided into two types: pre-reporting and post-reporting:

[0205] Pre-reporting: This is performed before training or starting an AI model. This involves preliminary configuration of the AI ​​model based on historical data or other information.

[0206] Post-event reporting: This occurs after the AI ​​model is launched or within a pre-set time window. This reporting is used to monitor and adjust the model's performance to ensure it meets expected results.

[0207] The following further explains the process of configuring time windows or resources for training or supervision:

[0208] In some embodiments, a time window or resource is first configured for the UE to perform measurements, training, or other related operations. This time window or resource can be before a preset time point or within a time period. The UE performs measurements, training, or other operations based on this configuration and then reports the results.

[0209] The base station will decide whether to activate or deactivate AI mode, measurement relaxation, cell measurement, or other related operations based on the results reported by the UE. This decision-making process is based on a comprehensive evaluation of the data reported by the UE and the current network status.

[0210] In this way, we can dynamically adjust network configuration based on actual conditions to meet changing needs and conditions, thereby improving network performance and user experience.

[0211] The training parameters are used to activate or deactivate a training mode, and in the training mode, the base station configures a fourth resource set for training.

[0212] The model parameters include at least one of the following: model index, function index, model required parameters, beam information, power information, and antenna information.

[0213] The parameters required by the model include the number of neural nodes, the number of layers, initialization parameters, etc. The model function index is used to determine whether the function of the model is CSI compression or measurement.

[0214] Model parameters also include input parameters, output parameters, and structure types. For example, the input parameters are RSRP, RSRQ, and RSSI, and the structure type is neural convolutional network.

[0215] The fallback parameter is used to determine whether to fall back from the first behavior to the second behavior.

[0216] The following are descriptions of the fallback parameters:

[0217] To ensure network stability and reliability, when certain conditions are not met, you may need to fall back to traditional measurement methods and exit AI mode. The following are the parameters used for fallback:

[0218] Threshold: When the difference between the actual metric (such as RSRP, RSRQ, RSSI) and the predicted metric exceeds a set threshold, a fallback mechanism can be triggered. This can be based on the difference at a single location, the mean of the difference across all locations, the standard deviation or variance of the difference, etc. Fallbacks can also be triggered if the parameters of the reference signal port, TRP, or cell signal do not meet the threshold, or if the UE does not meet the threshold for low mobility or stationary state.

[0219] For example, based on the difference between all RSRP / RSRQ positions predicted by the second resource set and the actual RSRP / RSRQ, if one of the differences is greater than the threshold value, then fall back to the traditional method and exit the measurement relaxation in the AI ​​mode.

[0220] For example, based on the average of the differences between all RSRP / RSRQ positions predicted based on the second resource set and the actual RSRP / RSRQ, if the average of the differences is greater than a certain threshold, then fall back to the traditional method and exit the measurement relaxation in the AI ​​mode.

[0221] For example, based on the standard deviation or variance of the difference between all RSRP / RSRQ positions predicted by the second resource set and the actual RSRP / RSRQ, if the standard deviation or variance is greater than a certain threshold value, it falls back to the traditional method and exits the measurement relaxation in the AI ​​mode.

[0222] For example, it determines whether the parameters of the reference signal port, TRP, and cell signal meet the preset thresholds. If these thresholds are not met, the system may determine that the current signal quality is not sufficient to support AI mode measurement and choose to fall back to the traditional method.

[0223] For example, if the UE has low mobility or is stationary, but the corresponding parameters do not meet the preset thresholds, the system will also choose to exit the measurement relaxation in AI mode. This is because the network requirements and behaviors of UEs with low mobility or in a stationary state may be different from those of high mobility UEs, and therefore require more accurate and stable measurement configurations.

[0224] In some embodiments, for the cell switching or cell selection information based on the time node configured by the network, when the UE cannot find a suitable cell for itself, it will fall back to the legacy mode.

[0225] For example, when a suitable cell cannot be obtained at one or more given time nodes, the UE will exit the AI ​​prediction cell switching method, or the UE will continue to measure the cell according to the legacy method, first performing same-frequency and then different-frequency measurements, or give priority to measuring the last resident cell.

[0226] When a signal that meets the channel conditions cannot be obtained at one or more given time nodes and one or more frequency points, the UE will exit the measurement mode, or the UE will fall back to SSB measurement.

[0227] At one or more given time points, when the signal quality or strength of the received beam direction fails to meet the threshold, the UE will exit the measurement mode, or the UE will fall back to full-beam measurement.

[0228] At one or more given time points, when the signal quality or strength of the received TRP fails to meet the threshold, the UE will exit the measurement mode, or the UE will fall back to the signal reception of the cell.

[0229] In some embodiments, when the predicted RRM measurement result fails to meet the threshold requirement in AI measurement relaxation mode, the UE needs to exit AI measurement relaxation mode, or the UE needs to fall back to the normal measurement mode, including measurement based on synchronization signal block (SSB), LP-SS, CSI-RS or DMRS; or, the predicted RRM measurement result meets the requirement, but in the activated training mode, it does not match or does not meet the requirement with the actual measurement result. In this case, it is necessary to fall back to the normal measurement mode.

[0230] In some embodiments, for the cell information, carrier information, TRP information, frequency information, beam information, and PLMN information based on the time node configured by the base station, if the measurement values ​​based on these cells, carriers, TRP, frequencies, beams, and PLMNs do not meet the relevant threshold values, the UE needs to exit or abandon the cell selection / reselection / switching based on the time node, carrier selection, TRP selection, frequency selection, beam selection, PLMN selection, energy-saving mode, AI-based scheduling mode, etc.

[0231] For example, for the cell information based on the time node configured by the base station, if the measured reference signal quality does not meet the requirements, or the reference signal quality measured within a time window does not meet the requirements, it is necessary to exit the measurement relaxation mode or the AI ​​measurement mode.

[0232] For example, for the frequency information based on the time node configured by the base station, if the reference signal quality measured at the corresponding frequency point does not meet the requirements, or the reference signal quality measured within a time window does not meet the requirements, it is necessary to exit the AI ​​energy-saving mode.

[0233] In some embodiments, activation includes fallback to proactive activation, that is, the base station may trigger a deactivation command to terminate the operation in the AI ​​mode and fall back to the normal mode.

[0234] In some embodiments, based on the training resources configured by the base station or based on the training mode, if the training results do not meet the requirements, it is also necessary to exit the AI ​​assisted mode and return to the normal mode.

[0235] In some embodiments, if the UE's prediction of the input and output results transmitted by the base station fails to meet the requirements, the UE will exit the AI ​​mode and provide feedback to the base station or send a report to the base station. Alternatively, if the monitoring indicators cannot be met, the UE will exit the AI ​​mode and provide feedback to the base station or send a report to the base station.

[0236] In some embodiments, when the UE triggers cell switching / cell selection / PLMN selection, if the UE delay during the switching process is too large, or the signal strength or signal quality measured by the cell SSB does not meet the requirements, the UE exits the AI ​​assisted mode.

[0237] In some embodiments, when the UE predicts uplink channel transmission, if the scheduled PUSCH or PDCCH cannot be well matched with its own business, the UE will exit the AI-assisted mode and send information to the base station.

[0238] Based on this, by optimizing resource allocation and executing corresponding behaviors, it helps to reduce terminal power consumption, save system resources and improve system efficiency.
