[0075] The following first describes the technologies related to the embodiments of the present application.
[0076] 1. Low-power receiver and low-power wake-up signal
[0077] A low-power receiver is a low-power wake-up radio (LP-WUR) or an almost zero-power wake-up radio (AZP-WUR). The basic working principle of LP-WUR is that the receiving end includes a first module and a second module, as shown in Figure 2. The first module is the main communication module, which is used to send and receive mobile communication data, and the second module is a low-power receiving module (also called a low-power wake-up receiving module), which is used to receive the above-mentioned wake-up signal. In the energy-saving state, the terminal turns on the low-power receiving module to monitor LP-WUS and turns off the main communication module. When downlink data arrives, the network will send a wake-up signal to the terminal. After the terminal monitors the wake-up signal through the low-power receiving module, it triggers the main communication module from off to on after a series of judgments. At this time, the low-power receiving module enters the off state from the working state. The low-power wake-up receiving module can be turned on continuously or intermittently, and can receive the low-power wake-up signal when it is turned on.
[0078] Low-power wake-up signal (LP-WUS): To reduce terminal reception activity in standby mode, the RF (radio frequency) and baseband (MODEM) modules are effectively shut down, significantly reducing power consumption during communication reception. This is achieved by introducing a near-zero-power receiver into the terminal's receiving module. This near-zero-power receiver eliminates the need for complex RF module signal detection (such as amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) and MODEM signal processing, relying solely on passive matched filtering and low-power signal processing.
[0079] On the base station side, by triggering a wake-up signal on demand, the near-zero-power receiver can be activated to receive the activation notification, thereby triggering a series of processes within the terminal, such as turning on the RF transceiver and baseband processing modules.
[0080] Such wake-up signals are generally simple on-off keying signals, such as those shown in FIG3 , so that the receiver can obtain the wake-up notification through simple energy detection and subsequent possible sequence detection and recognition processes.
[0081] 2. New Radio (NR) Measurement
[0082] Take Radio Link Monitoring (RLM) as an example
[0083] In the radio resource control connection (RRC_CONNECTED) state, the user equipment (UE) should monitor the downlink quality based on the reference signal in the configured radio link monitoring reference signal (RLM-RS) resources to detect the downlink radio link quality of the primary cell (PCell) and the primary and secondary cells (PSCell). During the RLM process, the reported out-of-sync (oos) is used to determine whether a radio link failure (RLF) has occurred, and the reported in-sync (is) is used to determine whether the RLF has been recovered. The details are as follows:
[0084] 1. When N310 out-of-syncs are reported consecutively, start the T310 timer.
[0085] 2. If N311 in-syncs are reported consecutively while the T310 timer is running, stop the T310 timer.
[0086] 3. When the T310 timer expires, it is considered that RLF has occurred and the UE side triggers the RRC connection re-establishment process.
[0087] Among them, N310, N311 and T310 are RLF detection configuration parameters configured in the network.
[0088] Out-of-sync and in-sync reporting
[0089] The terminal determines the Qout and Qin thresholds, compares the RLM-RS measurement result with the thresholds, and reports an out-of-sync event if the measurement result is worse than Qout. If the measurement result is better than Qin, an in-sync event is reported. The RLM-RS can be a synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel signal block (or synchronization signal block) (Synchronization Signal and PBCH block, SSB), or a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), or a mixture of SSB and CSI-RS.
[0090] 3. RLM measurement and RLM measurement relaxation
[0091] R15 / 16RLM defines that the duration of oos detection must be within 1.5*DRX cycle*10 samples; since the L1 oos indication interval is defined as follows: the interval between two consecutive L1 indications must be at least: T Indication_interval =Max(10ms,1.5×DRX_cycle_length,1.5×T RLM-RS,M ), so before discovering OOS, the UE can only perform RLM once at 1.5DRX to meet the OOS discovery time requirement. Otherwise, RAN4 usually understands that 10 samples must be performed.
[0092] R17 RLM measurement relaxation is a UE measurement relaxation criterion based on network configuration. When the UE determines that the measurement relaxation conditions are met, it relaxes the duration requirement for the assessed out-of-sync condition rather than directly relaxing the RLM measurement period. Before an out-of-sync condition occurs, the relevant protocol does not restrict the terminal to performing RLM measurements according to a period of 1.5 DRX cycles * relaxation factor K. The terminal can implement RLM with a period greater than or equal to 1.5 DRX cycles * relaxation factor. Therefore, even when using a dense DRX cycle, such as a 10ms DRX cycle, the terminal can still perform RLM measurements every 16 DRX cycles (per 160ms) before an out-of-sync condition occurs. Therefore, for a dense DRX cycle configuration, RLM does not increase terminal power consumption compared to a normal DRX cycle configuration. Measurement relaxation criteria include low mobility determination criteria and cell quality determination criteria. The terminal determines the RLM relaxation status based on the two configured criteria and reports the relaxation status to the network.
[0093] The cell quality judgment criterion is based on the radio link quality, namely the signal-to-noise and interference ratio (SINR). When the SINR is higher than Qin+offset, the system enters RLM relaxation. When the UE triggers out-of-sync or starts T310, the system exits RLM relaxation. When the UE triggers beam failure and starts the beam failure counter (BF counter), the system exits BFD relaxation.
[0094] The low mobility criterion is the network-configured signal quality evaluation duration and change value threshold. When the signal quality change of the terminal on the serving cell within a period of time is less than the change value threshold, the terminal is considered to meet the low mobility criterion.
[0095] After R17 RLM relaxation, the required oos duration must be within 1.5*K*DRX cycle*10 samples, where k is the relaxation multiple. Indication_interval The same is true for 1.5*DRX cycle. For example, in the case of RLM relaxation, K = 2, and a DRX cycle of 40ms, the terminal can perform RLM measurements every 320ms before detecting an oos. However, after detecting the first oos, it immediately reverts to performing RLM measurements every 1.5DRX cycle. For 10 samples, the worst-case duration is 320ms + 9*1.5*DRXcycle = 860ms, which still meets the requirement of <1.5*K*DRXcycle*10 = 1200ms.
[0096] The relevant protocols stipulate that RLM with No DRX requires the UE to have a shorter out-of-sync duration than RLM with DRX. Conversely, RLM with DRX requires the UE to have a more relaxed out-of-sync duration than RLM with No DRX, which helps the terminal save power.
[0097] Related measurements include radio resource management (RRM), RLM, beam failure detection (BFD), Layer 1 Reference Signal Received Power (L1-RSRP), and L1-SINR (including at least one of Layer 1 and Layer 3). Relaxed measurements are particularly important because they rely on DRX configuration. Therefore, a DRX-free mechanism is needed to enable relaxed measurements of the primary receiver (MR) to save power even when DRX is not configured.
[0098] The following, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes in detail the information acquisition and configuration methods, devices, terminals, and network-side devices provided in the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios.
[0099] As shown in FIG4 , an embodiment of the present application provides an information acquisition method, including:
[0100] Step 401: When a first condition is met, the terminal determines measurement information of a reference signal.
[0101] The first condition includes at least one of the following:
[0102] A11. The terminal is not configured with discontinuous reception (DRX);
[0103] It should be noted that this situation can be understood as the network side not configuring DRX for the terminal.
[0104] A12. The terminal is configured with DRX, but DRX is not effective or DRX meets the conditions for being ineffective;
[0105] It should be noted that in this case, it means that the network side has configured DRX for the terminal, but the terminal is not currently in the DRX operation period; for example, the network side device configures DRX operation from 9 pm to 12 am, if the current time is 8 pm, DRX is not effective; for example, when the network side device configures the receiving power to be less than a specific threshold, DRX is effective, that is, the conditions for DRX to take effect are met. When the terminal's access power is greater than a specific threshold, it can be understood that the terminal is configured with DRX, but DRX does not meet the conditions for taking effect.
[0106] A13. The terminal supports and is configured, activated or enabled to monitor a low power wake-up signal (LP-WUS);
[0107] This situation can be understood as the terminal being able to monitor LP-WUS.
[0108] A14. At least one of the measurement results of the main receiver and the low-power wake-up receiver of the terminal meets the condition for relaxing the main receiver measurement;
[0109] It should be noted that the threshold for relaxing the measurement of the main receiver is agreed upon by the protocol or configured by the network side device; for example, the condition for relaxing the measurement of the main receiver can be that the quality of the measurement signal of the main receiver is less than or equal to the preset threshold; it can also be that the quality of the measurement signal of the low-power wake-up receiver is greater than or equal to the preset threshold.
[0110] A15. The terminal detects a low-power wake-up signal for waking up the main receiver;
[0111] This situation can be understood as when the terminal supports and is configured, activated or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring, the network side device sends a low-power wake-up signal to wake up the terminal's main receiver, and the terminal detects the low-power wake-up signal sent by the network side device to wake up the main receiver.
[0112] Optionally, the duration corresponding to the measurement information mentioned in the embodiment of the present application is greater than or equal to the duration used by the terminal for measurement under DRX conditions; it should be noted that the duration used by the terminal for measurement under DRX conditions may be the duration used by the terminal for normal measurement under DRX, or the duration used by the terminal for relaxed measurement under DRX.
[0113] Optionally, in one implementation, the specific implementation of determining the measurement information of the reference signal includes:
[0114] determining measurement information of a reference signal according to the first information;
[0115] Optionally, the first information includes at least one of the following:
[0116] A21. A first time range of a reference signal, wherein the first time range includes at least one transmission of the reference signal;
[0117] Optionally, the first time range can be understood as the time range for transmitting the reference signal; for example, within the first time range, the reference signal can be transmitted periodically or non-periodically; optionally, if the reference signal is transmitted periodically within the first time range, then the first time range can be understood as the first period, and the first period can be understood as a transmission period, a reference transmission period or a virtual transmission period.
[0118] A22. Reporting period for measurement reports generated based on reference signal measurements;
[0119] A23. A second time range of the terminal, where the second time range satisfies at least one of the following: is related to a DRX cycle of the terminal, is related to a measurement period of a reference signal measured by the terminal, and is related to a transmission period of the reference signal measured by the terminal;
[0120] Optionally, the second time range can be understood as a second period; for example, the second period is related to the DRX period of the terminal, and the second period can be referred to as a reference (Reference) DRX period or a virtual (Virtual) DRX period. For example, the second period is related to the measurement period of a reference signal measured by the terminal, and the second period can be referred to as a reference measurement period or a virtual measurement period. For example, the second period is related to the transmission period of the reference signal measured by the terminal, and the second period can be referred to as a reference transmission period or a virtual transmission period.
[0121] A24, measurement occasion of the reference signal;
[0122] The measurement opportunity may be understood as the location of the time-frequency resource of the reference signal to be measured.
[0123] A25, a multiple of relaxation measurement of the main receiver or low-power wake-up receiver of the terminal;
[0124] A26. Rules for determining the measurement information as agreed upon in the protocol;
[0125] Optionally, multiple determination rules for measurement information may be agreed upon through a protocol, and the specific determination rule to be used may be indicated by the network-side device through signaling.
[0126] Optionally, the determination rule may be understood as a determination formula for obtaining measurement information; for example, a quality evaluation period or a quality evaluation time period may be obtained through a determination formula composed of at least one of A21-A25.
[0127] It should be noted that, by supporting and being configured, activated or enabled to monitor the low-power wake-up signal LP-WUS when DRX is not configured, DRX is configured and DRX is not effective, or DRX meets the conditions for not being effective, at least one of the measurement results of the main receiver and the low-power wake-up receiver meets the conditions for relaxing the measurement of the main receiver, or when a low-power wake-up signal that wakes up the main receiver is detected, the measurement information of the reference signal is determined, so that the terminal can measure the reference signal based on the measurement information of the relaxed measurement, thereby ensuring that power saving can be achieved even when DRX is not configured or DRX is not enabled.

[0139] Optionally, in this case, the duration corresponding to the measurement information mentioned in the embodiment of the present application is greater than or equal to the duration used by the terminal for measurement in the DRX situation, which can be understood as: the length of the target time period corresponding to the reference signal is greater than or equal to the length of the target time period used by the terminal for measurement in the DRX situation.

[0154] Optionally, the second information includes the first information.
[0155] This situation can be understood as, if the first information includes multiple information other than the above-mentioned determination rules, and / or different information includes multiple values, it is necessary to first determine the one with the largest or smallest value among these information, and then obtain the measurement information of the reference signal based on the determined information and the determination rules.
[0156] C12. Obtain third information based on the second information and the determination rule, and determine measurement information of the reference signal in the third information, where the measurement information is the maximum or minimum value in the third information;
[0157] This situation can be understood as follows: if the first information includes multiple information other than the above-mentioned determination rules, and / or different information includes multiple values, multiple measurement information is first obtained based on this information and the determination rules, and then the maximum or minimum value among the multiple measurement information is selected as the measurement information finally used.
[0158] Optionally, the second information also includes: a reference value corresponding to the measurement information.
[0159] Optionally, the reference value is a network-side device configuration or a protocol agreement.
[0160] It should be noted that, with respect to the above-mentioned C11, if the first information includes multiple information other than the above-mentioned determination rules, and / or the different information includes multiple values, it is necessary to first determine the largest or smallest value among the information and the reference value, and then obtain the measurement information of the reference signal based on the determined information and the determination rules. With respect to the above-mentioned C12, if the first information includes multiple information other than the above-mentioned determination rules, and / or the different information includes multiple values, first obtain multiple measurement information based on the information, the reference value, and the determination rules, and then select the maximum or minimum value among the multiple measurement information as the measurement information ultimately used.
[0161] Optionally, in one implementation, the reference signal includes at least one of the following:
[0162] C11, synchronization signal block (SSB);

Optionally, when the first cell is all the cells in the service cell, the second cell is a non-service cell; when the first cell is part of the service cell, the second cell is a non-service cell and a service cell except the first cell.
[0168] The specific application of the embodiments of the present application is described below with examples.
[0169] Application scenario 1: The first information includes the second period of the reference signal (corresponding to the second time range mentioned above), and the second period is related to the DRX period of the terminal.
[0170] Taking RLM based on SSB as the RLM reference signal as an example, this application is also applicable to the following scenarios:
[0171] 1. RLM based on CSI-RS as the RLM reference signal, that is, the out-of-sync evaluation duration based on CSI-RS (T Evaluate_out );
[0172] 2. Beam failure detection evaluation duration based on SSB measurement (T Evaluate_BFD_SSB );
[0173] 3. Beam failure detection evaluation duration based on CSI-RS measurement (T Evaluate_BFD_CSI-RS ).
[0174] The protocol specifies or updates the evaluation time period Table 1 or Table 2 (in the absence of RLM relaxation scenario) for terminals that are not configured with DRX and are configured, activated, or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring; and / or the protocol specifies or updates the evaluation time period Table 3 or Table 4 (in the presence of RLM relaxation scenario) for terminals that are not configured with DRX or that are not configured with DRX and are configured, activated, or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring, as follows:
[0175] Table 1. The first configuration of synchronization and desynchronization evaluation periods in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0176] Among them, T SSB Indicates the cycle length of the SSB of the RLM configuration; T DRX Indicates the DRX cycle length; T Ref_DRX The length of the second cycle can be the same as the DRX cycle length of the existing protocol or a subset of the DRX cycle length of the existing protocol. The definition of P is consistent with that of the relevant protocol.
[0177] It should be noted that Table 1 mainly defines several different determination formulas for synchronization assessment time periods and out-of-synchronization assessment time periods based on the second cycle of the reference signal, mainly for the case where DRX is not configured and LP-WUS exists.
[0178] Table 2 The second configuration of synchronization and desynchronization evaluation periods in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0179] It should be noted that Table 2 mainly redefines the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period based on the relationship between the DRX cycle length and the preset value. When the terminal is configured with DRX and DRX is not effective or DRX meets the conditions for not being effective, the reference DRX cycle or virtual DRX cycle is used to determine the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period; when DRX is effective or DRX meets the conditions for being effective, the actually configured DRX cycle length is used to determine the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period.
[0180] Table 3. The first configuration of the out-of-step evaluation period in the RLM relaxation scenario
[0181] Among them, Opt.1 in Table 3 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX but is configured with LP-WUS; Opt.2 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX.
[0182] Optionally, if Max(T DRX , T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <Max(T DRX ,T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2.
[0183] For opt.2, if DRX is not configured, if Max(T Ref_DRX ,T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4, if 40ms <Max(T Ref_DRX , T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2; if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0184] Optionally, if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0185] It should be noted that Table 3 mainly aims at the case where DRX is not configured, and redefines several different formulas for determining the out-of-synchronization assessment time periods based on the second cycle of the reference signal.
[0186] Table 4. The second configuration of the out-of-step evaluation period in the RLM relaxation scenario
[0187] Among them, for T Ref_DRX For example, in one case, when the terminal is configured or monitors LP-WUS and the terminal is not configured with DRX, T Ref_DRX is the reference DRX cycle length or the virtual DRX cycle length; in another case, when the terminal is not configured with DRX, T Ref_DRX is the reference DRX cycle length or the virtual DRX cycle length.
[0188] Alternatively, if Max(T DRX or T Ref_DRX , T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <Max(T DRX or T Ref_DRX , T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2.
[0189] Optionally, if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0190] It should be noted that Table 4 mainly redefines the formula for determining the out-of-sync assessment time period based on the relationship between the DRX cycle length and the preset value. When the terminal is configured with DRX and DRX is not effective or DRX meets the conditions for not being effective, the reference DRX cycle or virtual DRX cycle is used to determine the formula for determining the out-of-sync assessment time period; when DRX is effective or DRX meets the conditions for being effective, the actually configured DRX cycle length is used to determine the formula for determining the out-of-sync assessment time period.
[0191] It should be noted that the T in Tables 3 and 4 above Ref_DRX The value of can be limited to no more than 80ms, or its value can be unlimited; or T in Table 3 above Ref_DRX There is no restriction on the value of T in Table 4. Ref_DRX The value limit is no more than 80ms.
[0192] When a terminal is not configured with DRX but supports and is configured with LP-WUS monitoring enabled, the RLM-RS configured by the network side device for the terminal is SSB, and the SSB transmission period is T SSB = 20ms, P = 1, and the evaluation reference period T in the scenario without RLM relaxation and the scenario with RLM relaxation Ref_DRX = 160ms (no RLM relaxation scenario) and T Ref_DRX =40ms (in the RLM relaxation scenario), the terminal determines the actual evaluation period T-evaluate-out according to the evaluation time period Table 1 or Table 2 (in the non-RLM relaxation scenario) and the evaluation time period Table 3 or Table 4 (in the RLM relaxation scenario) updated as agreed in the protocol. The out evaluation period is the duration used by the terminal to detect that the downlink radio link quality is lower than the configured threshold based on the SSB reference signal measurement.
[0193] No RLM Relaxation Scene T Ref_DRX =160ms:
[0194] Based on opt.2 of Table 1, we get T Evaluate_out_SSB =Max(200, Ceil(10×(P=1))×Max((T Ref_DRX =160), (T SSB =20)))=10×160=1600ms;
[0195] Based on Table 2, we get T Evaluate_out_SSB =Max(200, Ceil(15×(P=1))×Max((T Ref_DRX =160), (T SSB =20)))=15×160=2400ms.
[0196] There is RLM relaxation scene T Ref_DRX =40ms:
[0197] Based on opt.1 in Table 3, we get Ceil(15×1)×Max((T Ref_DRX =40), (T SSB =20))=600ms
[0198] Based on Table 4, we get Max(200×(K3=1), Ceil(15×(K1=4)×(P=1))×Max((T Ref_DRX =40), (T SSB =20)))=2400ms.
[0199] Application scenario 2: In the scenario where DRX is not configured, the first period of the reference signal related to a measurement configuration (corresponding to the first time range mentioned above), that is, the transmission period of the reference signal, the transmission reference period or the virtual period
[0200] Taking RLM based on SSB as the RLM reference signal as an example, the method is also applicable to the following scenarios:
[0201] 1. RLM based on CSI-RS as the RLM reference signal, that is, the out-of-sync evaluation duration based on CSI-RS (T Evaluate_out );
[0202] 2. Beam failure detection evaluation duration based on SSB measurement (T Evaluate_BFD_SSB );
[0203] 3. Beam failure detection evaluation duration based on CSI-RS measurement (T Evaluate_BFD_CSI-RS ).
[0204] The protocol specifies or updates the evaluation time period Table 5, Table 6, or Table 7 (in the absence of RLM relaxation scenario) for terminals that are not configured with DRX and are configured, activated, or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring; and / or the protocol specifies or updates the evaluation time period Table 8 (in the presence of RLM relaxation scenario) for terminals that are not configured with DRX or that are not configured with DRX and are configured, activated, or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring, as follows:
[0205] Table 5 The third configuration of synchronization and out-of-sync evaluation periods in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0206] Among them, T SSB Indicates the cycle length of the SSB in the RLM configuration, T Ref_SSB Indicates the reference transmission cycle length or virtual transmission cycle length of the SSB configured by RLM for a terminal that is not configured with DRX and is configured, activated, or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring.
[0207] It should be noted that Table 5 mainly defines the formula for determining the synchronization assessment time period and the out-of-synchronization assessment time period based on the first cycle of the reference signal, mainly for the case where DRX is not configured.
[0208] Table 6 The fourth configuration of synchronization and desynchronization evaluation periods in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0209] It should be noted that Table 6 mainly defines several different determination formulas for synchronization assessment time periods and out-of-sync assessment time periods based on the first cycle of the reference signal, mainly for the case where DRX is not configured and LP-WUS exists.
[0210] Table 7 The fifth configuration of synchronization and desynchronization evaluation period in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0211] It should be noted that Table 7 mainly redefines the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period based on the relationship between the DRX cycle length and the preset value. When the terminal is configured with DRX and DRX is not effective or DRX meets the conditions for not being effective, the first cycle of the reference signal is used to determine the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period; when DRX is effective or DRX meets the conditions for being effective, the actually configured DRX cycle length or the cycle length of the reference signal is used to determine the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period.
[0212] Table 8 The third configuration of the out-of-step evaluation period in the RLM relaxation scenario
[0213] Among them, opt.1 in Table 8 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX but is configured with LP-WUS; opt.2 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX.
[0214] Alternatively, if Max(T DRX ,T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <Max(T DRX ,T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2.
[0215] For opt.2, if DRX is not configured, if T Ref_SSB ≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <T Ref_SSB ≤80ms, then K1=2; if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0216] Optionally, if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0217] It should be noted that Table 8 is mainly for the case where DRX is not configured, and the formula for determining the out-of-synchronization assessment time period is redefined based on the first cycle of the reference signal.
[0218] It should be noted that the T in Tables 5, 6, 7 and 8 above Ref_SSB The value of can be 5ms, 10ms, 20ms, 40ms, 80ms, 160ms, 320ms, 640ms; or T Ref_SSB The value of can be 10ms, 20ms, 40ms, 60ms, 80ms, 128ms, 160ms, 320ms, 640ms; or T Ref_SSB The value of can be a subset or the full set of Long DRX cycle or short DRX cycle values.
[0219] T in Tables 5, 6, 7 and 8 above Ref_SSB Contains at least one SSB transmission.
[0220] T of opt.1 and opt.2 in Table 8 above Ref_SSB The value of can be limited to no more than 80ms, or its value can be unlimited; or T in opt.1 in Table 8 above Ref_SSB There is no restriction on the value of T in opt.2. Ref_SSB The value limit is no more than 80ms.
[0221] Application 3: Introduce a separate table to define the out-of-step evaluation period (T Evaluate_out_SSB ) and synchronous evaluation period (ie T Evaluate_in_SSB )
[0222] The protocol introduces new evaluation time periods Table 9 or 10 (in the absence of RLM relaxation scenario) and / or Table 11 or 12 (in the presence of RLM relaxation scenario) for terminals that are configured, activated, or enabled for LP-WUS monitoring, as follows:
[0223] Table 9 The sixth configuration of synchronization and desynchronization evaluation period in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0224] Among them, TSSB represents the cycle length of SSB configured by RLM; TDRX represents the DRX cycle length; T Ref_DRX Indicates the second cycle length, that is, the cycle length related to the DRX cycle.
[0225] It should be noted that Table 9 mainly aims at the case where DRX is not configured, and redefines several different determination formulas for synchronization assessment time periods and out-of-sync assessment time periods based on the second cycle of the reference signal.
[0226] Table 10 The seventh configuration of synchronization and desynchronization evaluation time periods in the scenario without RLM relaxation
[0227] It should be noted that Table 10 mainly redefines the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period based on the relationship between the DRX cycle length and the preset value. When the terminal is configured with DRX and DRX is not effective or DRX meets the conditions for not being effective, the reference DRX cycle or virtual DRX cycle is used to determine the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period; when DRX is effective or DRX meets the conditions for being effective, the actually configured DRX cycle length is used to determine the formula for determining the synchronization evaluation time period and the out-of-sync evaluation time period.
[0228] Table 11 The fourth configuration of the out-of-step evaluation period in the RLM relaxation scenario
[0229] Among them, opt.1 in Table 11 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX but is configured with LP-WUS; opt.2 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX.
[0230] Alternatively, if Max(T DRX ,T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <Max(T DRX ,T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2.
[0231] For opt.2, if DRX is not configured, if Max(T Ref_DRX ,T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <Max(T Ref_DRX ,T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2; if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0232] Optionally, if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0233] It should be noted that Table 11 is mainly for the case where DRX is not configured, and redefines several different formulas for determining the out-of-synchronization assessment time periods based on the second cycle of the reference signal.
[0234] Table 12 The fifth configuration of the out-of-step evaluation period in the RLM relaxation scenario
[0235] Among them, opt.1 in Table 12 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX but is configured with LP-WUS; opt.2 is a method for obtaining the out-of-synchronization evaluation time period when the terminal is not configured with DRX.
[0236] Alternatively, if Max(T DRX or T Ref_DRX ,T SSB )≤40ms, then K1=4; if 40ms <Max(T DRX or T Ref_DRX ,T SSB )≤80ms, then K1=2.
[0237] Optionally, if K1≤2, then K3=K1, otherwise K3=1.
[0238] It should be noted that Table 12 mainly redefines the formula for determining the out-of-sync assessment time period based on the relationship between the DRX cycle length and the preset value. When the terminal is configured with DRX and DRX is not effective or DRX meets the conditions for not being effective, the reference DRX cycle or virtual DRX cycle is used to determine the formula for determining the out-of-sync assessment time period; when DRX is effective or DRX meets the conditions for being effective, the actually configured DRX cycle length is used to determine the formula for determining the out-of-sync assessment time period.
[0239] It should be noted that although the embodiment of the present application takes RLM / BFD as an example, it can also be applied to normal or relaxed measurements of layer 3 and layer 1 such as RRM, L1-RSRP, and L1-SINR.
[0240] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application effectively supports how to perform layer 1 and layer 3 measurements that are not based on DRX configuration and can save terminal power consumption when performing DRX-free LP-WUS operations, thereby effectively achieving terminal power saving.
