[0212] 2 and 3 are interactive schematic diagrams illustrating a measurement control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0213] During a user device's first measurement in a preconfigured measurement gap, if service data needs to be transmitted (including when the user device needs to send service data to a network device, or vice versa), performing the first measurement in the measurement gap may affect the transmission of the service data. In particular, when the service data is important or urgent, it may be necessary to prioritize the transmission of the service data. Therefore, a measurement control mechanism is needed to ensure the priority transmission of relatively important or urgent service data.
[0214] Optionally, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the first measurement may be an RRM measurement.
[0215] The RRM measurement gap enhancements include three parts: (1) Pre-configured MG pattern(s); (2) Multiple concurrent and independent MG patterns; and (3) Network controlled small gap (NCSG).
[0216] Typically, the user equipment performs the first measurement in a first measurement gap preconfigured by the network device.

[0218] Step 201: The user equipment determines a service parameter of a first service; wherein the service parameter is used to determine whether to interrupt or terminate a first measurement gap; wherein the user equipment is configured to perform a first measurement in the first measurement gap.
[0219] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the user equipment is configured to perform the first measurement in the first measurement gap, if the user equipment needs to send service data to the network device, or the user equipment receives indication information that the network device needs to send service data to it, the importance and urgency of the first service can be determined based on the service parameters of the service (i.e., the first service), and whether the first measurement gap needs to be interrupted or terminated.
[0220] Optionally, in some embodiments, the service parameters include at least one of the following:
[0221] Scrambling method, the above scrambling method is a scrambling method for the first signal;
[0222] Service priority information; the service priority information indicates the service priority of the first service;
[0223] Business identification domain;
[0224] The first signal is used to carry the first service data of the first service.
[0225] Optionally, the service identification field may be used to identify the service type of the first service, or the service identification field may be used to identify the association between the first service data and whether the measurement gap can be interrupted or terminated. Specifically, the information identified by the service identification field may be pre-negotiated.
[0226] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the service identification field includes first indication information.
[0227] The first indication information is set to a first parameter value, which is used to identify that the service type of the first service is a premium service;
[0228] The first indication information is set as a second parameter value, which is used to identify that the service type of the first service is not a premium service.
[0229] Optionally, it may be determined through pre-negotiation that when the service identification field includes the first indication information, the service identification field is used to identify the service type of the first service.
[0230] Optionally, the premium services may include but are not limited to services that require timely transmission, including but not limited to the aforementioned relatively important or relatively urgent services.
[0231] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first indication information, the first parameter value, and the second parameter value may be empirical parameters or experimental parameters.
[0232] As an example, the first indication information may be a single bit, the first parameter value may be 1, and the second parameter value may be 0. When the first indication information is set to 1, it is used to identify the service type of the first service as a premium service. When the first indication information is set to 0, it is used to identify the service type of the first service as not a premium service.
[0233] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the service identification field includes second indication information.
[0234] The second indication information is set to a third parameter value, which is used to indicate that the measurement gap is interrupted or terminated when transmitting the first service data;
[0235] The second indication information is set as a fourth parameter value, which is used to indicate that the measurement gap is not interrupted or terminated when the first service data is transmitted.
[0236] Optionally, it may be determined through pre-negotiation that when the service identification field includes the second indication information, the service identification field is used to identify the association between the first service data and whether the measurement gap can be interrupted or terminated.
[0237] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second indication information, the third parameter value, and the fourth parameter value may be empirical parameters or experimental parameters.
[0238] As an example, the second indication information may be a single bit, the third parameter value may be 1, and the fourth parameter value may be 0. When the second indication information is set to 1, it is used to indicate that the measurement gap is interrupted or terminated when the first service data is transmitted. When the second indication information is set to 0, it is used to indicate that the measurement gap is not interrupted or terminated when the first service data is transmitted.
[0239] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first service may be a static service or a dynamic service. When the first service is a static service, the service identification domain may be carried by DCI (Downlink Control Information). When the first service is a dynamic service, the service identification domain may be carried by RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling. Specifically, dynamic services may include but are not limited to uplink CG (configured grant) services, downlink SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling) services, and the like.
[0240] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned first service is an uplink configuration authorization CG service, and the above-mentioned service identification domain is configured by the network device when configuring the CG configuration information.
[0241] Optionally, when the first service is a CG service, the above records can be referred to, and the service identification field can be used to identify whether the CG service is a premium service, or the service identification field can be used to identify the association between the CG service data and whether the measurement gap can be interrupted or terminated.
[0242] As an example, when the service identification field includes the first indication information and the first indication information is set to 1, the service type used to identify the CG service is a premium service. When the service identification field includes the first indication information and the first indication information is set to 0, the service type used to identify the CG service is not a premium service.
[0243] When the service identification field includes the second indication information and the second indication information is set to 1, it is used to indicate that the measurement gap is interrupted or terminated when the CG service data is transmitted. When the service identification field includes the second indication information and the second indication information is set to 0, it is used to indicate that the measurement gap is not interrupted or terminated when the CG service data is transmitted.
[0244] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first service is a downlink semi-persistent scheduling SPS service, and the service identification field is configured by the network device when configuring SPS configuration information.
[0245] Optionally, when the first service is an SPS service, the above records can be referred to, and the service identification field can be used to identify whether the SPS service is a premium service, or the service identification field can be used to identify the association between SPS service data and whether the measurement gap can be interrupted or terminated.
[0246] As an example, when the service identification field includes the first indication information and the first indication information is set to 1, the service type used to identify the SPS service is a premium service. When the service identification field includes the first indication information and the first indication information is set to 0, the service type used to identify the SPS service is not a premium service.
[0247] When the service identification field includes the second indication information and the second indication information is set to 1, it is used to indicate that the measurement gap is interrupted or terminated when the SPS service data is transmitted. When the service identification field includes the second indication information and the second indication information is set to 0, it is used to indicate that the measurement gap is not interrupted or terminated when the SPS service data is transmitted.

[0252] According to the service identification field, it is determined whether to interrupt or terminate the first measurement gap.
[0253] Optionally, the above association relationship is pre-negotiated by the user equipment and the network device.
[0254] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, by setting an association relationship between the service priority information of the first service and the configuration information corresponding to the first measurement gap according to the scrambling method, or the service identification field of the first service, to determine whether to interrupt or terminate the first measurement gap, different service parameters of the first service can be combined to determine whether to interrupt or terminate the first measurement gap, thereby enriching the method for determining whether to interrupt or terminate the first measurement gap.

When transmitting a high-priority first service, the low-priority first measurement gap needs to be interrupted or terminated. When transmitting a low-priority first service, the low-priority first measurement gap needs to be interrupted or terminated.

[0525] With respect to the foregoing, in the measurement control method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the user equipment may determine whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG (i.e., the interruption or termination described above); the network device may determine whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG; or after the user equipment or the base station determines whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG, the user equipment or the base station may report to the network device that the RRM measurement is interrupted in the first GAP. Each method will be described in detail below:
[0526] Example 1:
[0527] Taking the network device including a base station and the first measurement being an RRM measurement as an example, a specific method for determining whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG by the user equipment is as follows:
[0528] The base station configures RRM measurement GAP related configuration for the user equipment. The RRM measurement GAP related configuration includes at least one Pre-MG pattern and related configuration, at least one multi-coexisting MG pattern and related configuration, and at least one NCSG and related configuration.
[0529] The user equipment determines at least one GAP based on the RRM measurement GAP-related configuration, where the at least one GAP includes a valid GAP. The user equipment performs RRM measurements based on the RRM measurement GAP-related configuration, i.e., the user equipment performs RRM measurements during a valid GAP. During the RRM measurement period, the user equipment does not expect to perform data communication with any communication node. The valid GAP satisfies at least one of the following conditions: being activated, not being canceled, having the highest priority, having a higher priority, and not conflicting with other GAPs.
[0530] The user equipment determines, through a first method, whether one or more GAPs are cancelled, whether RRM measurements on one or more GAPs are actively skipped, or whether non-GAP-based RRM measurements are performed on one or more GAPs. GAP cancellation may include, but is not limited to, GAP interruption / cancellation / interruption / deactivation / invalidation.
[0531] The one or more GAPs may be GAPs configured by the base station for the user equipment, or valid GAPs among the GAPs configured by the base station for the user equipment. Further, when one or more GAPs are valid GAPs, all counts and / or rankings are calculated from the valid GAP set.
[0532] The first method includes at least one of the following:
[0533] Method 1:
[0534] The user equipment uses different RNTI scrambling to determine whether the service (i.e., the scheduled service) can interrupt the RRM MG. The protocol predefines that when the first channel is scrambled by the first RNTI, the user equipment will interrupt the RRM MG that overlaps with the service scheduled on the first channel. In other words, the user equipment will transmit the scheduled service on the first channel normally.
[0535] Method 2:
[0536] The user equipment determines whether the service can interrupt the RRM MG based on the priority rules predefined (i.e., pre-negotiated) by the protocol. The rules predefined by the protocol include at least one of the following:
[0537] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt low-priority activated GAPs;
[0538] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt low-priority inactive GAPs, meaning that the user equipment does not need to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements.
[0539] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt the activated GAP of higher priority;
[0540] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt high-priority activated GAPs;
[0541] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt high-priority inactive GAPs, meaning that the user equipment does not need to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements.
[0542] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt high-priority GAPs that are being activated;
[0543] The protocol predefines that low-priority services can interrupt low-priority activated GAPs;
[0544] The protocol predefines that low-priority services can interrupt low-priority inactive GAPs, meaning that the user equipment does not need to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements at this time;
[0545] The protocol predefines that low-priority services can interrupt the activated GAP of higher priority.
[0546] Method 3:
[0547] The protocol predefines a premium service identification field, which is carried by the DCI. The premium service identification field includes at least one first indication bit, the bit value of which is used to mark whether the scheduled service is a premium service, or the bit value of the first indication bit is used to identify whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0548] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a second indication bit (i.e., the first indication information described above). A first indication bit of 1 indicates that the scheduled service is premium service; a first indication bit of 0 indicates that the scheduled service is not premium service. Alternatively, a first indication bit of 0 indicates that the scheduled service is premium service; a first indication bit of 1 indicates that the scheduled service is not premium service. The protocol predefines that premium service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0549] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a third indication bit (i.e., the second indication information described above). A second indication bit of 1 indicates that the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG, while a second indication bit of 0 indicates that the scheduled service cannot interrupt the RRM MG. Alternatively, a second indication bit of 0 indicates that the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG, while a second indication bit of 1 indicates that the scheduled service cannot interrupt the RRM MG.
[0550] Method 4:
[0551] The protocol predefines a premium service identification field for identifying CG services. The premium service identification field is configured by the base station during CG configuration and is carried by RRC signaling. The premium service identification field includes at least one fourth indicator bit, the bit value of which is used to mark whether the scheduled service is a premium service, or the bit value of the fourth indicator bit is used to identify whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0552] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a fifth indicator bit. A fifth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG is a premium service; a fifth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG is not a premium service. Alternatively, a fifth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG is a premium service; a fifth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG is not a premium service. The protocol predefines that premium services can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0553] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a sixth indicator bit. A sixth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG can interrupt the RRM MG, while a sixth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG cannot interrupt the RRM MG. Alternatively, a sixth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG can interrupt the RRM MG, while a sixth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG cannot interrupt the RRM MG.
[0554] Method 5:
[0555] The protocol predefines a premium service identification field for identifying SPS services. This field is configured by the base station during SPS configuration and carried in RRC signaling. The premium service identification field includes at least one seventh indicator bit, the value of which is used to mark whether the scheduled service is a premium service or to indicate whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0556] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes an eighth indicator bit. A 1 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is a premium service; a 0 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is not a premium service. Alternatively, a 0 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is a premium service; a 1 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is not a premium service. The protocol predefines that premium services can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0557] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a ninth indicator bit. A ninth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding SPS can interrupt the RRM MG; a ninth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding SPS cannot interrupt the RRM MG. Alternatively, a ninth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding SPS can interrupt the RRM MG; a ninth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding SPS cannot interrupt the RRM MG.
[0558] Example 2
[0559] Taking the network device including a base station and the first measurement being an RRM measurement as an example, a specific method for determining whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG by the network device is as follows:
[0560] The base station configures RRM measurement GAP related configuration for the user equipment. The RRM measurement GAP related configuration includes at least one Pre-MG pattern and related configuration, at least one multi-coexisting MG pattern and related configuration, and at least one NCSG and related configuration.
[0561] The user equipment determines at least one GAP based on the RRM measurement GAP-related configuration, where the at least one GAP includes a valid GAP. The user equipment performs RRM measurements based on the RRM measurement GAP-related configuration, i.e., the user equipment performs RRM measurements during a valid GAP. During the RRM measurement period, the user equipment does not expect to perform data communication with any communication node. The valid GAP satisfies at least one of the following conditions: being activated, not being canceled, having the highest priority, having a higher priority, and not conflicting with other GAPs.
[0562] The base station determines, by a second method, whether one or more GAPs are canceled, or whether to instruct the user equipment to skip RRM measurements on one or more GAPs, or whether to instruct the user equipment to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements on one or more GAPs. GAP cancellation includes but is not limited to GAP interruption / interruption / deactivation / invalidation.
[0563] The one or more GAPs may be GAPs configured by the base station for the user equipment, or may be valid GAPs among the GAPs configured by the base station for the user equipment.
[0564] Furthermore, when one or more GAPs are valid GAPs, all counts and / or rankings are calculated from the valid GAP set.
[0565] The second method includes at least one of the following:
[0566] Method 1:
[0567] The base station determines whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG by scrambling different RNTIs in the scheduling signaling. The protocol predefines that when the first channel is scrambled by the first RNTI, the base station instructs the user equipment to interrupt the RRM MG that overlaps with the service scheduled on the first channel. This means that the user equipment will continue to transmit the service scheduled on the first channel as normal.
[0568] Method 2:
[0569] The base station determines whether the service can interrupt the RRM MG based on the priority rules predefined in the protocol. The rules predefined in the protocol include at least one of the following:
[0570] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt low-priority activated GAPs;
[0571] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt low-priority inactive GAPs, meaning that the user equipment does not need to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements.
[0572] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt the activated GAP of higher priority;
[0573] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt high-priority activated GAPs;
[0574] The protocol predefines that high-priority services can interrupt high-priority inactive GAPs, meaning that the user equipment does not need to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements.

[0576] The protocol predefines that low-priority services can interrupt low-priority activated GAPs;
[0577] The protocol predefines that low-priority services can interrupt low-priority inactive GAPs, meaning that the user equipment does not need to perform non-GAP-based RRM measurements at this time;
[0578] The protocol predefines that low-priority services can interrupt the activated GAP of higher priority.
[0579] Method 3:
[0580] The protocol predefines a premium service identification field, which is carried by the DCI. The premium service identification field includes at least one first indication bit, the bit value of which is used to mark whether the scheduled service is a premium service, or the bit value is used to identify whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0581] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a second indicator bit. A second indicator bit of 1 indicates that the scheduled service is premium service; a second indicator bit of 0 indicates that the scheduled service is not premium service. Alternatively, a second indicator bit of 0 indicates that the scheduled service is premium service; a second indicator bit of 1 indicates that the scheduled service is not premium service. The protocol predefines that premium service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0582] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a third indicator bit. A value of 1 indicates that the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG, while a value of 0 indicates that the scheduled service cannot interrupt the RRM MG. Alternatively, a value of 0 indicates that the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG, while a value of 1 indicates that the scheduled service cannot interrupt the RRM MG.
[0583] Method 4:
[0584] The protocol predefines a premium service identification field for identifying CG services. The premium service identification field is configured for user equipment by the base station during CG configuration and is carried by RRC signaling. The premium service identification field includes at least one fourth indicator bit, the bit value of which is used to mark whether the scheduled service is a premium service, or the bit value of the fourth indicator bit is used to identify whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG.

A fifth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG is a premium service; a fifth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG is not a premium service. Alternatively, a fifth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG is a premium service; a fifth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG is not a premium service. The protocol predefines that premium services can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0586] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a sixth indicator bit. A sixth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG can interrupt the RRM MG, while a sixth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG cannot interrupt the RRM MG. Alternatively, a sixth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding CG can interrupt the RRM MG, while a sixth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding CG cannot interrupt the RRM MG.
[0587] Method 5:
[0588] The protocol predefines a premium service identification field for identifying SPS services. This field is configured for user equipment by the base station during SPS configuration and carried in RRC signaling. The premium service identification field includes at least one seventh indicator bit, the value of which is used to mark whether the scheduled service is a premium service or to indicate whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0589] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes an eighth indicator bit. A 1 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is a premium service; a 0 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is not a premium service. Alternatively, a 0 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is a premium service; a 1 in the eighth indicator bit indicates that the corresponding SPS is not a premium service. The protocol predefines that premium services can interrupt the RRM MG.
[0590] In one implementation, the premium service identification field includes a ninth indicator bit. A ninth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding SPS can interrupt the RRM MG; a ninth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding SPS cannot interrupt the RRM MG. Alternatively, a ninth indicator bit of 0 indicates that the corresponding SPS can interrupt the RRM MG; a ninth indicator bit of 1 indicates that the corresponding SPS cannot interrupt the RRM MG.
[0591] Example 3
[0592] Taking the network device including a base station and the first measurement being an RRM measurement as an example, after the user equipment or the base station determines whether the scheduled service can interrupt the RRM MG, the user equipment reports to the network device that the RRM measurement can be interrupted at the first GAP.
[0593] The base station configures RRM measurement GAP related configuration for the user equipment. The RRM measurement GAP related configuration includes at least one Pre-MG pattern and related configuration, at least one multi-coexisting MG pattern and related configuration, and at least one NCSG and related configuration.
[0594] The user equipment determines at least one GAP based on the RRM measurement GAP-related configuration, where the at least one GAP includes a valid GAP.
