[0034] First, the content related to this application is introduced.

[0035] 1. Event-triggered measurement and reporting

[0036] In the current standard, event-triggered measurements and reported measurement quantities are L3 measurement results, the main purpose of which is to evaluate cell quality to facilitate cell switching. When the quality of the serving cell is lower than a certain threshold (i.e., event A2 in Table 1), the terminal (also known as user equipment (UE)) will perform L3 measurements on neighboring cells; when the measurement results of the neighboring cells meet a certain event (i.e., one of the events in Table 1), the UE will perform L3 reporting. For the event definitions in Table 1, the current L3 reporting is to associate a report configuration (Report Config) and a measurement object (Meas Object) through a measurement configuration (Meas Config), and the Report Config is associated with an event configuration. In the L3 reporting, in order to enable the network to determine the event corresponding to the reported content, in addition to the L3 measurement result, the terminal will also report the measurement configuration identifier (Meas Config id).

[0037] Table 1 Definition of events triggered by terminals in L3 reporting

[0038] In Table 1, the parameters are explained as follows:

[0039] Mn: Neighboring cell measurement results, without considering any offset

[0040] Ofn: Neighborhood measurement object specific offset

[0041] Ocn: Neighboring cell-level specific offset

[0042] Mp: SpCell (primary serving cell) measurement result, without considering any offset

[0043] Ofp: SpCell measurement object specific offset

[0044] Ocp: SpCell cell-level specific offset

[0045] Hys: hysteresis parameter of the event

[0046] Off: The offset parameter of the event

[0047] Mi: Interference measurement results

[0048] 2. Unified TCI framework

[0049] The Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) framework supports two modes: joint and separate. The joint mode specifies that the uplink and downlink channels and reference signal beams are the same, while the separate mode specifies that the downlink channel and reference signal beams are the same, while the uplink channel and reference signal beams are the same, but the uplink and downlink beams are different.

[0050] For joint mode, the network side needs to configure a TCI state list, and then determine the UE's beam through Medium Access Control Element (MAC CE) activation and Downlink Control Information (DCI) indication. For separate mode, the network side needs a TCI state list for downlink channels and reference signals, and a TCI-UL-State list for uplink channels and reference signals. For TCI state activation and indication in separate mode, the pair is activated in the form of a beam pair (i.e., one TCI state + one TCI-UL-State) through MAC CE, and then a beam pair is determined from the activated beam pairs through DCI.

[0051] Considering that some channels and signals have high requirements for robustness but not too high requirements for transmission peak, the Unified TCI framework divides channels and signals into two parts. For the first part of signals and channels, their Quasi Co-Location (QCL) assumption (for downlink) or spatial relationship (for uplink) is determined according to the unified TCI state indicated by the network. For the second part of signals and channels, whether their QCL assumption (for downlink) or spatial relationship (for uplink) is determined according to the unified TCI state indicated by the network needs to be determined in combination with the RRC configuration and whether the unified TCI state indicated by the network is associated with the neighboring cell. The specific rules are as follows:

[0052] 1) If the Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration information "followUnifiedTCI-State" corresponding to the second part of the signal and channel is enabled, and the unified TCI state indicated by the network is associated with the serving cell, the QCL assumption (for downlink) or spatial relationship (for uplink) of the second part of the signal and channel is determined according to the unified TCI state indicated by the network;

[0053] 2) If the RRC configuration information "followUnifiedTCI-State" corresponding to the second part of the signal and channel is enabled, and the unified TCI state indicated by the network is associated with the neighboring cell, then the QCL assumption (for downlink) or spatial relationship (for uplink) of the second part of the signal and channel is determined according to the TCI state / TCI-UL-State indicated by the network separately for the second part of the signal and channel;

[0054] 3) If the RRC configuration information corresponding to the second part of the signal and channel does not include the high-level configuration parameter "followUnifiedTCI-State", the QCL assumption (for downlink) or spatial relationship (for uplink) of the second part of the signal and channel is determined according to the TCI state / TCI-UL-State indicated by the network separately for the second part of the signal and channel.

[0055] 3. Beam measurement and reporting

[0056] 3.1 Beam Measurement

[0057] Analog beamforming uses full-bandwidth transmission, and each polarization element on each high-frequency antenna array panel can only transmit analog beams in a time-division multiplexed manner. The shaping weights of the analog beams are achieved by adjusting the parameters of devices such as the RF front-end phase shifter.

[0058] Currently, in academia and industry, polling is commonly used to train simulated beamforming vectors. That is, the array elements in each polarization direction of each antenna panel send training signals (i.e., candidate beamforming vectors) in sequence at agreed times in a time-division multiplexing manner. After measurement, the terminal feeds back a beam report, which the network side uses to implement simulated beam transmission in the next service transmission using the training signal.

[0059] The current standard only supports beam measurement using the Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS) or Synchronization Signal Block (SSB). The CSI-RS used for beam measurement only has one or two ports. The SSB is a periodic reference signal, while the CSI-RS used for beam measurement can be periodic, semi-persistent, or aperiodic.

[0060] Beam measurement is divided into L1 beam measurement and L3 beam measurement. L1 beam measurement is limited to the serving cell in Release 15 and 16. Release 15 only supports L1-RSRP measurement, while Release 16 introduces L1-SINR, taking inter-cell interference or inter-user interference into account in beam measurement. In Release 17, the cross-cell beam management and cross-cell multiple transmit and receive node projects support L1 beam measurement of neighboring cells that are co-frequency and synchronized with the current serving cell. In Release 18, the mobility enhancement project supports L1 beam measurement of asynchronous and heterodyne neighboring cells. Both currently only support SSB-based Layer 1 Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurement. After the terminal performs L1 beam measurement based on the measurement resources configured by the network, it selects some beams for reporting based on the measurement results.

[0061] 3.2 Beam Reporting

[0062] The current standard supports reporting of L1 beam measurements such as L1-RSRP, Layer 1 Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), and Layer 1 Signal-to-noise and Interference Ratio (SINR). Beam reporting methods include group-based and non-group-based. For non-group-based beam reporting, the terminal selects up to four beams from all measurement resources configured on the network side for reporting based on the measurement quantity. For group-based beam reporting, in Release 15 / 16, the terminal selects a pair of beams that can be simultaneously received by the UE based on the measurement results for reporting.

[0063] In the existing protocol, if the report quantity field in the high-level parameter CSI report configuration (CSI Report Config) is configured as "cri-RSRP" or "cri-SINR" or "ssb-Index-SINR" or "ssb-Index-RSRP", it means that the current CSI report is a beam report. And when the group-based beam reporting (groupBasedBeamReporting) field is "enabled", the UE can only report a pair of beams: including two channel measurement resource (Channel Measurement Resource, CMR) identifiers and their corresponding L1-RSRP / L1-SINR values. Among them, the CMR identifier includes: CSI Reference Signal Resource Indicator (CSI-RS Resource Indicator, CRI), SSB Resource Indicator (SS / PBCH Block

[0064] Resource Indicator, SSBRI). When the groupBasedBeamReporting field is "disabled", the UE may report the CMR identifiers corresponding to the four beams and their corresponding L1-RSRP. When the number of reported beams is greater than 1, the remaining L1-RSRP / L1-SINR values ​​except the maximum value of L1-RSRP / L1-SINR are differentially reported with the maximum value. In the Release17 multi-transmission receiving node project, the group-based beam reporting method is enhanced. The terminal can select up to 4 pairs of beams that the UE can receive simultaneously from the measurement resources configured by the network for reporting, and different beams in each pair of simultaneously received beams correspond to different transmission receiving nodes, thereby ensuring that the network can send the pair of beams at the same time. In the Release 18L1 / L2-Triggered Mobility (hereinafter referred to as LTM) project, L1 reporting for switching, namely ltm-CSI-ReportConfig, is introduced. In an L1 report for handover, the terminal can report up to 4 cells, where each cell reports 4 beam measurement results, that is, a maximum of 16 beams and their corresponding measurement results.

[0065] In the current standard, the contents of the L1 beam report are all placed in CSI part I, and the UCI bit length is fixed.

[0066] The reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below through some embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0067] 2, a flow chart of a reporting method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. The method is applied to a terminal device, as shown in FIG2, and the method may specifically include:

[0068] Step 201: When a first condition is met, the terminal device sends first information to the network side device.

[0069] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0070] The measurement result of the first reference signal is less than or equal to the first threshold value;

[0071] The measurement result of the second reference signal is less than or equal to the second threshold value;

[0072] A measurement result of the third reference signal is greater than or equal to a measurement result of a fourth reference signal; the fourth reference signal is at least one of the first reference signal and the second reference signal;

[0073] The first reference signal is determined according to first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate beam-related information of a first channel, and the first channel includes a channel associated with a control resource set CORESET associated only with a dedicated search space.

[0074] The second reference signal is a reference signal that has a quasi-co-location relationship with a second channel, and the second channel is a channel for which beam-related information is not determined according to the first indication information.

[0075] It should be noted that the first reference signal in the embodiment of the present application can be a reference signal implicitly determined based on the beam-related information of the first channel, or it can be a reference signal configured by the network-side device. Exemplarily, the first reference signal can be determined based on a QCL source reference signal (source RS) indicating a TCI state. Furthermore, the first reference signal can be a QCL-Type D source RS, or the first reference signal needs to have a quasi-co-location relationship with the first channel.

[0076] The first channel may include at least one of the following:

[0077] A channel using joint beam indication information indicated by a network-side device;

[0078] Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH);

[0079] A physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) associated with a first control resource set (CORESET);

[0080] A PDSCH scheduled by a PDCCH associated with the first control resource set.

[0081] The first control resource set may include at least one of the following:

[0082] Other control resource sets except the second control resource set; the second control resource set is CORESET#0, or the CORESET with the smallest CORESET ID;

[0083] COERSET associated only with the UE specific Search Space (USS);

[0084] A CORESET associated with the pool index of the first control resource set.

[0085] It is understood that the measurement result of the first reference signal being less than or equal to the first threshold may include: the measurement result of the first reference signal being less than the first threshold, or the measurement result of the first reference signal plus the first offset being less than the first threshold. The first threshold and the first offset may be specified by a protocol or configured by a network-side device.

[0086] In the embodiments of the present application, the second reference signal may be a reference signal implicitly determined based on the beam-related information of the second channel, or may be a reference signal explicitly configured by a network-side device. The second channel is a channel for which beam-related information is not determined based on the first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate the beam-related information of the first channel.

[0087] As an example, the second channel may include at least one of the following:

[0088] A channel that does not use the joint beam indication information indicated by the network side device;

[0089] PDCCH;

[0090] A PDCCH associated with a third control resource set;

[0091] A PDSCH scheduled by a PDCCH associated with a third control resource set.

[0092] The third control resource set may include at least one of the following:

[0093] The second control resource set is CORESET#0, or the CORESET with the smallest CORESET ID;

[0094] A CORESET associated with at least one Common Search Space (CSS);

[0095] A CORESET associated with the pool index of the second control resource set.

[0096] Optionally, in a case where there are at least two second channels with different quasi co-location characteristics, the second reference signal includes at least one of the following:

[0097] a reference signal having a quasi-co-location relationship with the at least two second channels having different quasi-co-location characteristics;

[0098] A reference signal with the highest measurement result among the reference signals having a quasi-co-location relationship with the at least two second channels having different quasi-co-location characteristics.

[0099] In an embodiment of the present application, if there are at least two second channels having different quasi-co-location characteristics, then the second reference signal may be a reference signal having a quasi-co-location relationship with these second channels. Exemplarily, assuming that the second channels Channel 1 and Channel 2 have different quasi-co-location characteristics, then the second reference signal may include a reference signal RS1 having a quasi-co-location relationship with Channel 1, and a reference signal RS2 having a quasi-co-location relationship with Channel 2. Alternatively, the second reference signal may be the reference signal having the highest measurement result among the reference signals having a quasi-co-location relationship with these second channels having different quasi-co-location characteristics. For example, assuming that the measurement result of RS1 is greater than the measurement result of RS2, then the second reference signal may be the reference signal RS1 having a quasi-co-location relationship with Channel 1. Exemplarily, the second reference signal may be a QCL type D source RS in a TCI state.

[0100] It should be further explained that the RS having a quasi-co-location relationship with the first channel or the second channel involved in this application refers to other RS ​​having a quasi-co-location relationship with the DMRS of the first channel or the second channel, including but not limited to: CSI-RS, Tracking Reference Signal (TRS), SSB, Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), etc.

[0101] The measurement result of the second reference signal being less than or equal to the second threshold may include: the measurement result of the second reference signal being less than the second threshold, or the measurement result of the second reference signal plus the second offset being less than the second threshold. The second threshold and the second offset may be specified by the protocol or configured by the network-side device. The first offset and the second offset may be the same or different.

[0102] Optionally, the second threshold is less than or equal to the first threshold.

[0103] In the embodiment of the present application, considering that the channel quality requirement of common channels or reference signals (common channels / RSs) is lower than that of dedicated channels or reference signals (dedicated channels / RSs), the second threshold value may be less than or equal to the first threshold value.

[0104] The measurement result of the third reference signal is greater than or equal to the measurement result of the fourth reference signal, which may include at least one of the following:

[0105] The measurement result of the third reference signal is greater than the measurement result of the fourth reference signal;

[0106] The measurement result of the third reference signal minus the measurement result of the fourth reference signal is higher than a third threshold;

[0107] A result obtained by subtracting the third offset value from the measurement result of the third reference signal is higher than the sum of the measurement result of the fourth RS and the fourth offset value;

[0108] A result obtained by subtracting the third offset value from the measurement result of the third reference signal is higher than the sum of the measurement result of the fourth RS, the fourth offset value, and the third threshold.

[0109] The third threshold, the third offset value, and the fourth offset value may be specified by a protocol or configured by a network-side device.

[0110] Optionally, the third reference signal includes at least one of the following:

[0111] In addition to the transmission configuration indication state indicated by the network-side device, quasi-co-located source reference signals of other activated transmission configuration indication states;

[0112] A reference signal configured by the network side device for searching for a new beam;

[0113] In addition to the activated transmission configuration indication state, the quasi-co-located source reference signals of other transmission configuration indication states configured by the network side device;

[0114] A quasi-co-located source reference signal indicating the status of all transmission configurations configured by the network side device;

[0115] a reference signal associated with a neighboring cell of the terminal device;

[0116] Reference signals associated with other serving cells than the current serving cell of the terminal device.

[0117] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the first condition may further include: a measurement result of the third reference signal is greater than or equal to a third threshold value, which may specifically include: the measurement result of the third reference signal is greater than the third threshold value, or the measurement result of the third reference signal minus a fifth offset value is greater than the third threshold value. The third threshold value and the fifth offset value may be specified by a protocol or configured by a network-side device.

[0118] It should be noted that the beam-related information in the embodiment of the present application may be beam indication information, and the beam indication information may include at least one of the transmission configuration indication state (TCI state), the transmission configuration indication uplink state (TCI-UL-State), the spatial relation (spatial relation) and the quasi-co-location assumption.

[0119] The measurement results in the embodiments of the present application may include the results obtained by performing a single L1 measurement, or the measurement results obtained by filtering after performing L1 measurements within a certain period of time, or the measurement results obtained by filtering after X times of L1 measurements, or the best (generally for judgments below a threshold) or worst (generally for judgments above a threshold) measurement results obtained after performing L1 measurements within a certain period of time.

[0120] When the first condition is met, the terminal device sends first information to the network side device. The first information may include at least one of indication information of the first condition and a measurement result.

[0121] The reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application, combined with the unified TCI framework, defines the trigger conditions for reporting from the two perspectives of dedicated search space and public search space. When the first condition is met, the terminal device can send the first information to the network side device to report the triggering event and / or measurement results to the network side device. Compared with the periodic reporting in the related art, the embodiment of the present application reports when the first condition is met, which can reduce the resource overhead and reporting delay of the reporting.

[0122] It should be noted that if the events corresponding to USS and CSS are triggered respectively, for example, when the measurement results of the first reference signal and / or the uplink resources of the first condition corresponding to the first reference signal overlap in the time domain with the measurement results of the second reference signal and / or the uplink resources of the first condition corresponding to the second reference signal, or in the process of mapping the logical channel to the transmission channel, the reporting priority of the measurement results of the first reference signal and / or the first condition is higher than the reporting priority of the measurement results of the second reference signal and / or the first condition.

[0123] Optionally, the first condition is associated with a first reporting configuration, and the first reporting configuration includes at least one of the following:

[0124] Channel state information report configuration (CSI-ReportConfig);

[0125] Layer 1 / Layer 2 triggered mobility-CSI-ReportConfig (LTM-CSI-ReportConfig)

[0126] Indicates the configuration of the report triggered by the terminal.

[0127] The report configuration used to indicate the terminal trigger may be a new report configuration. The association between the first condition and the first report configuration may be determined by a network-side device configuration or may be specified by a protocol.

[0128] Optionally, the first condition is associated with a first report configuration, including at least one of the following:

[0129] The first report configuration is associated with a first condition;

[0130] The first reporting configuration is associated with at least two of the first conditions, and only one of the first conditions is valid or enabled within a first time period;

[0131] The first reporting configuration is associated with at least two of the first conditions, and at least two of the first conditions are valid or enabled.

[0132] Optionally, the first report configuration is associated with a first condition, including at least one of the following:

[0133] In a case where the network-side device is configured with at least two of the first reporting configurations, the first conditions associated with the at least two first reporting configurations are the same;

[0134] Different first reporting configurations are associated with different first conditions.

[0135] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device expects that the first conditions associated with all first reporting configurations configured by the network-side device are the same, or the terminal device expects that the number of first conditions configured by the network-side device or specified by the protocol is 1. Alternatively, different first reporting configurations are associated with different first conditions.

[0136] The validity or enable status of the first time period and the first condition can be determined by default rules specified by the protocol, for example, [t1, t2] is condition 1 enabled, and [t2, t3] is condition 2 enabled; or, the network device can dynamically indicate the validity or enable status of the first time period and the first condition, for example, by MAC CE or DCI, where the MAC CE and DCI need to indicate the identifier of the first condition of the enable state, or indicate it through a bitmap, that is, 1 indicates enable and 0 indicates disable.

[0137] Optionally, the first reporting configuration is associated with at least two first conditions, and only one of the first conditions is valid or enabled within the first time period, including:

[0138] The first reporting configuration is associated with at least two of the first conditions, but the enabling or valid first conditions associated with different first reporting configurations within the first time period are the same.

[0139] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the first information includes at least one of the following:

[0140] Indicative information of the first condition;

[0141] Indicative information of the first report configuration associated with the first condition;

[0142] indication information of a cell associated with the first reporting configuration associated with the first condition;

[0143] indication information of a cell associated with the reference signal associated with the first condition;

[0144] Index information of a fifth reference signal; the fifth reference signal includes at least one of the first reference signal, the second reference signal, and the third reference signal;

[0145] a measurement result of the fifth reference signal;

[0146] An identifier of the cell to which the fifth reference signal belongs.

[0147] It should be noted that the indication information in the first information can be a specific identifier, such as the condition identifier of the first condition, the report configuration identifier of the first report configuration associated with the first condition, the serving cell index, the physical cell identifier (PCI), the candidate cell configuration index, etc. Alternatively, it can also be indicated in the form of a bitmap. For example, if there are four first conditions in total and the bitmap is 1000, it means that the first first condition is currently met.

[0148] As an example, for the case of cross-cell RS measurement and reporting in the CA scenario, especially the scenario where the measurement resources associated with a reporting configuration are associated with multiple cells, if the terminal device does not report the beam measurement results, and the measured RS and the reporting resource are not in the same cell, only an event identifier, a reporting configuration identifier and a cell are reported. The NW cannot clearly understand which cell's beam the received status information corresponds to. Therefore, the identifier of the cell to which the RS associated with the event (the first condition being met) belongs can be reported to the network side device through the first information.

[0149] Optionally, in a case where the reference signal associated with the first condition is associated with at least one cell, the indication information of the cell associated with the reference signal associated with the first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0150] Indication information of a first cell; the first cell is any one of at least one cell associated with the reference signal associated with the first condition;

[0151] Indication information of all cells associated with the reference signal associated with the first condition.

[0152] The index information of the fifth reference signal may be an SSB index or SSBRI, or a CSI-RS resource id or CRI.

[0153] The fifth reference signal in the embodiment of the present application is at least one of the first reference signal, the second reference signal, and the third reference signal. Optionally, the fifth reference signal may be an RS among the first reference signal, the second reference signal, and the third reference signal that satisfies the first condition.

[0154] The identifier of the cell to which the fifth reference signal belongs may be a serving cell index, PCI, a candidate cell configuration index, or the like.

[0155] In an optional embodiment of the present application, before the terminal device sends the first information to the network side device when the first condition is met, the method further includes:

[0156] The terminal device sends second information to the network side device based on the first uplink resource.

[0157] The second information includes at least one of the following:

[0158] second indication information, where the second indication information is used to indicate at least one of a first condition for triggering reporting, a first reporting configuration associated with the first condition, and a cell associated with the first reporting configuration;

[0159] The third indication information is used to indicate the size of the payload of the first information.

[0160] As an example, the second indication information may include at least one of the following:

[0161] Indicative information of the first condition;

[0162] Indicative information of the first report configuration associated with the first condition;

[0163] Indication information of the cell associated with the first reporting configuration associated with the first condition.

[0164] The third indication information may indicate the size of a payload in the first information, such as a specific number of bits of the first information, or a bit range of the first information.

[0165] Optionally, when the first condition is met, the terminal device sends the first information to the network side device, including:

[0166] When the effective load indicated by the third indication information is not 0 and the first condition is met, the terminal device sends the first information to the network side device.

[0167] When the third indication information indicates that the size of the payload of the first information is equal to 0, the terminal device cancels the sending of the first information. Only when the third indication information indicates that the size of the payload of the first information is not equal to 0 and the first condition is met, the terminal device sends the first information to the network side device, thereby effectively reducing resource waste.

[0168] Optionally, the terminal device sends second information to the network side device based on the first uplink resource, including at least one of the following:

[0169] The terminal device sends the second information to the network side device based on the first uplink resource when at least one of the first conditions is met and before sending the first information;

[0170] Before sending the first information, the terminal device sends the second information to the network side device on the first uplink resource according to a preset period.

[0171] Optionally, the first uplink resource includes at least one of the following:

[0172] Configure Grant-Physical Uplink Shared Channel (CG-PUSCH) resources;

[0173] Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources.

[0174] Among them, the PUCCH resource can be a periodic resource.

[0178] The first uplink resource is associated with a second cell; the beam measurement result on the second cell meets the first condition, or the first condition associated with the first reporting configuration configured in the second cell is met.

[0179] Exemplarily, when the beam measurement result on the second cell satisfies the first condition, the terminal device transmits the second information on the first uplink resource. Alternatively, when the first condition associated with at least one first reporting configuration configured in the second cell is satisfied, the terminal device transmits the second information on the first uplink resource.

[0180] Optionally, when the network side device is configured with at least two second uplink resources, the terminal device sending the second information to the network side device based on the first uplink resource includes:

[0181] Step S11: The terminal device determines, according to a size of a payload of the first information or the second information, an uplink resource from the at least two second uplink resources as the first uplink resource;

[0182] Step S12: The terminal device sends the second information to the network side device based on the first uplink resource.

[0183] The second uplink resource may be a CG-PUSCH resource or a PUCCH resource. Different second uplink resources can carry different numbers of bits. The terminal device may determine a resource from multiple second uplink resources as the first uplink resource based on the payload size of the first information or the second information, and then send the second information to the network-side device based on the first uplink resource.

[0184] Optionally, when the first reporting configuration is associated with at least two of the first conditions, and at least two of the first conditions are valid or enabled, the terminal device sends first information to the network side device when the first condition is met, including:

[0185] Step S21: When at least two of the first conditions are met, the terminal device determines first information according to at least one of the third information and the second condition;

[0186] Step S22: The terminal device sends the first information to the network side device.

[0187] The third information includes fourth information corresponding to each of at least two satisfied first conditions; and the second condition includes one of at least two of the first conditions.

[0188] In an embodiment of the present application, if the first report configuration is associated with N (N ≥ 2) first conditions, and the N first conditions are all valid or enabled, if M (N ≥ M ≥ 2) first conditions are met, the terminal device can determine the fourth information corresponding to each of the M satisfied first conditions based on the first condition, and then determine the first information based on the M fourth information. The fourth information includes at least one of the following:

[0189] Indicative information of the first condition;

[0190] Indicative information of the first report configuration associated with the first condition;

[0191] indication information of a cell associated with the first reporting configuration associated with the first condition;

[0192] indication information of a cell associated with the reference signal associated with the first condition;

[0193] Index information of a fifth reference signal; the fifth reference signal includes at least one of the first reference signal, the second reference signal, and the third reference signal;

[0194] a measurement result of the fifth reference signal;

[0195] An identifier of the cell to which the fifth reference signal belongs.

[0196] Optionally, when the M fourth information contain identical information, the first information is composed of different parts and identical parts of the M fourth information. For example, two fourth information can be represented as [X1, X3, X4] and [X3, X6, X7], respectively, then the first information is [X1, X3, X4, X6, X7].

[0197] In another embodiment of the present application, when the first report configuration is associated with N (N≥2) first conditions, and the N first conditions are all valid or enabled, and M (N≥M≥2) first conditions are met, the terminal device can also determine the first information based on one of the M met first conditions.

[0198] Optionally, when the first condition is met, the terminal device sends the first information to the network side device, including:

[0199] The terminal device sends first information to the network side device based on the third uplink resource.

[0200] The third uplink resource includes at least one of the following:

[0201] Configure the authorized physical uplink shared channel (CG-PUSCH) resources;

[0202] Physical uplink control channel resources;

[0203] Physical uplink shared channel resources used to carry aperiodic channel state information reports (PUSCH for AP CSI);

[0204] Dynamically scheduled PUSCH resources.

[0205] Among them, the PUCCH resource can be a periodic resource.

[0206] Optionally, the third uplink resource satisfies at least one of the following:

[0207] The third uplink resource is dedicated to carrying the first information;

[0208] The third uplink resource is associated with the first reporting configuration;

[0209] The third uplink resource is determined according to a second reporting configuration associated with the first reporting configuration, where the second reporting configuration corresponds to a configuration of an aperiodic CSI report;

[0210] The third uplink resource is associated with the second cell; the beam measurement result on the second cell meets the first condition, or the first condition associated with the first reporting configuration configured in the second cell is met.

[0211] Exemplarily, when the beam measurement result on the second cell satisfies the first condition, the terminal device transmits the second information on the first uplink resource. Alternatively, when the first condition associated with at least one first reporting configuration configured in the second cell is satisfied, the terminal device transmits the second information on the first uplink resource.

[0212] Optionally, the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource satisfy at least one of the following:

[0213] The time interval between the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource is greater than or equal to a first threshold;

[0214] The first uplink resource, the first downlink resource used to schedule or indicate the third uplink resource, and the third uplink resource are on the same subcarrier;

[0215] At least two of the first uplink resource, the first downlink resource used to schedule or indicate the third uplink resource, and the third uplink resource are on different subcarriers, and subcarrier spacings of the subcarriers where the at least two resources are located are different.

[0216] Among them, the time interval between the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource is greater than or equal to a first threshold, which may include: the time interval between the last symbol of the first uplink resource and the first symbol of the third uplink resource is greater than or not less than the first threshold; the first threshold is specified by the network configuration or protocol; the unit of the first threshold may be symbol (symbol), time slot (slot), subframe (subframe), frame (frame), millisecond (ms), second (s), etc.

[0217] Optionally, when at least two of the first uplink resource, the first downlink resource, and the third uplink resource are on different subcarriers, and the subcarriers on which the at least two resources are located have different subcarrier spacings, the method further includes:

[0218] The terminal device determines the first threshold according to the minimum subcarrier spacing.

[0219] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the method further includes:

[0220] At a first moment after the terminal device sends the first information, if a third condition is met, the terminal device cancels sending the fifth information to the network side device.

[0221] Wherein, the third condition is one of the first conditions;

[0222] The fifth information is reporting information determined based on the third condition.

[0223] In this embodiment of the present application, within X1 after the terminal device sends the first information, if any of the first conditions is met, the terminal device cancels sending the fifth information. The value of the first moment or X1 is determined by the network device configuration or protocol. The time unit of the first moment or X1 is any one of symbol, slot, subframe, frame, milliseconds, and seconds.

[0224] It is understandable that the first timer can be started after the terminal device sends the first information. Before the timer times out, if the third condition is met, the terminal does not send the fifth information; after the timer times out, if the third condition is met, the terminal sends the fifth information.

[0225] In addition, when canceling the sending of the fifth information, the terminal device can reset the trigger state corresponding to the third condition and cancel the sending of the second information corresponding to the satisfied third condition.

[0226] Optionally, at a first moment after the terminal device sends the first information, if a third condition is met and the fifth information meets a fourth condition, the terminal device cancels sending the fifth information; the fourth condition includes at least one of the following:

[0227] The content of the fifth information is exactly the same as that of the first information;

[0228] The beam information included in the fifth information is the same as the beam information included in the first information;

[0229] The fifth information is a subset of the first information;

[0230] The beam information included in the fifth information is a subset of the beam information included in the first information.

[0231] The following examples illustrate the reporting content of terminal devices using several typical scenarios.

[0232] Case-1: All reports configured in CC#1 are associated with the same triggering event, the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are both associated with CC#1, and the RS resources associated with all reports are associated with CC#1.

[0233] a) Each report is associated with a first uplink resource and a third uplink resource, and the second information includes 1 bit for indicating whether the trigger event is triggered, and / or includes indication information for indicating the load size corresponding to the first information; the first information includes relevant information of the fifth RS, that is, at least one of the RS index, measurement results, and associated cell identifier.

[0234] The fifth RS includes at least one of a first reference signal, a second reference signal, and a third reference signal. The first reference signal and the second reference signal are beams currently being used by the terminal, and the third reference signal is a candidate beam.

[0236] 1. First information: 1-bit event trigger indication information + payload size indication information (the corresponding value is 0); if there is no second information, the measurement result will not be reported;

[0237] 2. First information: 1-bit event trigger indication information + payload size indication information; Second information: information about the RS corresponding to the current beam;

[0238] 3. First information: 1-bit event trigger indication information; Second information: information related to the RS corresponding to the current beam;

[0239] 4. First information: load size indication information (value is not 0); second information: relevant information of the RS corresponding to the current beam.

[0241] i. The second information includes at least one of the following:

[0242] 1.1 bit is used to indicate whether the trigger event corresponding to at least one report associated with CC#1 is triggered;

[0243] 2. Multiple bits are used to indicate whether the triggering event corresponding to each report associated with CC#1 is triggered;

[0244] 3. Indication information used to indicate the load size corresponding to the first information, the first information including the report content associated with one of the reports associated with CC#1, specifically including relevant information of the fifth RS, that is, at least one of the RS index, measurement results, and associated cell identifier.

[0245] ii. The first information includes at least one of the following:

[0246] 1. Instructions for the first report;

[0247] 2. Report content associated with the first report: The first report is a report in which the corresponding trigger event is satisfied and is associated with CC#1.

[0248] c) All reports in CC#1 are associated with a first uplink resource, where each report is associated with a third uplink resource, where:

[0249] i. The second information includes at least one of the following:

[0250] 1.1 bit is used to indicate whether the trigger event corresponding to at least one report associated with CC#1 is triggered;

[0251] 2. Multiple bits are used to indicate whether the triggering event corresponding to each report associated with CC#1 is triggered;

[0252] 3. Indicative information for indicating a payload size corresponding to first information, the first information including report content associated with one report associated with CC#1, or the first information including a collection of report contents corresponding to all reports associated with CC#1 and for which the trigger condition is satisfied. Further, optionally, when the report contents corresponding to the reports associated with CC#1 and for which the trigger condition is satisfied are identical, the terminal reports only the different portions plus the identical portions, to avoid repeatedly reporting the same content and reduce reporting overhead.

[0253] ii. The first information includes at least one of the following:

[0254] 1. Indication information of multiple first reports;

[0255] 2. Report content associated with multiple first reports; the first report is one of the reports associated with CC#1 when the corresponding trigger event is satisfied;

[0256] 3. A collection of report contents associated with multiple first reports. Further optionally, when the report contents corresponding to the reports associated with CC#1 and for which the trigger condition is satisfied are identical, the terminal only reports the different parts + the identical parts to avoid repeated reporting of the same content and reduce reporting overhead.

[0257] Case-2: Multiple reports and events are configured in CC#1, where each report is associated with a single event, and different reports can be associated with different events. The first and third uplink resources are both associated with CC#1, and all RS resources associated with the reports are associated with CC#1. The first and second information in Case-2 are the same as in Case-1.

[0258] Case-3: Multiple reports and events are configured in CC#1, where each report is associated with multiple events. The first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are both associated with CC#1, and the RS resources associated with all reports are all associated with CC#1. The first information and second information in Case-3 are similar to those in Case-1, except that the configuration of the first and second uplink resources on an event-by-event basis and the method for determining the first and second information are also added to Case-1. Furthermore, the first information or the first information must include information indicating the event that meets the triggering condition.

[0259] Case-4: All reports configured in CC#1 are associated with the same triggering event. The first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are both associated with CC#1. The RS resources associated with all reports may be associated with a CC other than CC#1. The first information and the second information in Case-4 are similar to those in Case-1, except that, based on Case-1, indication information of the CC corresponding to the RS associated with the report that meets the triggering condition is required to be added to the first information or the second information.

[0260] Case-5: Multiple reports and events are configured in CC#1, where each report is associated with an event, and different reports can be associated with different events. The first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are both associated with CC#1, and the RS resources associated with all reports can be associated with other CCs different from CC#1. The first information and the second information in Case-4 are similar to those in Case-2, except that, based on Case-2, it is necessary to add indication information of the CC corresponding to the RS associated with the report that meets the trigger condition to the first information or the second information.

[0261] Case-6: Multiple reports and events are configured in CC#1, where each report is associated with multiple events. The first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are both associated with CC#1, and the RS resources associated with all reports can be associated with other CCs different from CC#1. The first information and the second information in Case-6 are similar to those in Case-3, except that it is necessary to add indication information of the CC corresponding to the RS associated with the report that meets the trigger condition to the first information or the second information on the basis of Case-3.

[0262] Case-7: All reports configured in CC#1 and CC#2 are associated with the same triggering event, the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are associated with the first CC, which is one of all CCs configured and activated by the network, and the RS resources associated with all reports may be associated with other CCs different from CC#1 and / or CC#2; the first information and the second information in Case-7 are similar to Case-4, except that, on the basis of Case-4, it is necessary to add indication information of the CC associated with the report that meets the triggering condition to the first information or the second information.

[0263] Case-8: Multiple reports and events are configured in CC#1 and CC#2, respectively, where each report is associated with an event, and different reports can be associated with different events. The first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are associated with the first CC, which is one of all CCs configured and activated by the network. The RS resources associated with all reports can be associated with other CCs different from CC#1 and / or CC#2. The first information and the second information in Case-8 are similar to Case-5, except that indication information of the CC associated with the report that meets the trigger condition needs to be added to the first information or the second information on the basis of Case-5.

[0264] Case-9: Multiple reports and events are configured in CC#1 and CC#2, respectively, where each report is associated with an event, and different reports can be associated with different events. The first uplink resource and the third uplink resource are associated with the first CC, which is one of all CCs configured and activated by the network. The RS resources associated with all reports can be associated with other CCs different from CC#1 and / or CC2. The first information and the second information in Case-9 are similar to Case-6, except that it is necessary to add indication information of the CC associated with the report that meets the trigger condition to the first information or the second information on the basis of Case-6.

[0265] It should be noted that when the terminal trigger report is not associated with a report configuration, the report indication information in Case-1 to Case-9 can be replaced by the indication information of the triggering event. In this case, if there are multiple indication information of the same triggering event in the first information and the second information, only one of them will be reported.

[0266] In another optional embodiment of the present application, during an L1 reporting process triggered by a terminal in a CA scenario, the network-side device may configure M first uplink resources and third uplink resources to carry the second information and first information corresponding to the M CCs, respectively. That is, there is a one-to-one mapping relationship between the M resources and the M CCs. The network-side device may determine, based on the first uplink resource and the second uplink resource, and the association between the resources and the CCs, which CC's beam report is carried on the corresponding uplink resource.

[0267] Alternatively, the network-side device may also configure a first uplink resource and a third uplink resource for carrying the second information and first information corresponding to the M CCs, respectively, that is, one resource is used to carry all the first information or second information of the M CCs. The second information is 1 bit for indicating whether to trigger the report, or load size indication information of the first information; in addition to the beam-related information, the first information also needs to add indication information of all CCs in the M CCs where at least one triggering event is satisfied. The terminal device explicitly indicates the CC in the first information to inform the network which CC's beam report is carried.

[0268] In another application scenario of the present application, RS#1 is the RS corresponding to the current beam. At time t1, the UE finds that the measurement result of RS#2 is higher than the measurement result of RS#1, so RS#2 is reported. At time t2, the UE finds that the measurement result of RS#2 is higher than the measurement result of RS#1, so RS#2 is reported again. In this way, the UE will repeatedly report RS#2 until other RSs meet the trigger conditions or RS#2 no longer meets the conditions. However, since the reporting content is the same, that is, repeated reporting, it does not provide any effective gain and information volume for the network, but increases resource overhead and UE power consumption. To this end, it is necessary to optimize the definition of the trigger conditions to avoid repeated reporting.

[0269] Exemplarily, the terminal triggers reporting when the fourth condition is met. The fourth condition includes the following:

[0270] 1. A measurement result of at least one third RS is higher than a first threshold value compared to a measurement result of a sixth RS; the sixth RS is the first RS, the second RS, or the RS with the highest measurement result between the first RS and the second RS, or the first RS and the second RS;

[0271] 2. The third RS is different from the seventh RS, and the seventh RS is the RS reported in the previous trigger report.

[0272] Further optionally, the judgment of the above-mentioned fourth condition can be performed within a time window, and the time window is opened when the terminal determines that the first condition is met, or after sending the first information on the first uplink resource, or after the terminal sends the second information on the third uplink resource.

[0273] In summary, the embodiment of the present application provides a reporting method, which can be combined with a unified TCI framework to define the trigger conditions for reporting from the two perspectives of dedicated search space and public search space. When the first condition is met, the terminal device can send a first information to the network side device to report the triggering event and / or measurement results to the network side device. Compared with the periodic reporting of measurement results in related technologies, the embodiment of the present application reports when the first condition is met, which can reduce the resource overhead and reporting delay of the report.

[0274] The reporting method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be executed by a reporting device. In the embodiment of the present application, the reporting device provided in the embodiment of the present application is described by taking the reporting method performed by the reporting device as an example.
