[0028] Firstly, the related technologies involved in the embodiments of the present application are introduced.

[0029] (I) Low-power wake-up

[0030] In the related technologies, the research work of low-power wake-up receiving module (LPWUR) / low-power wake-up signal (LP-WUS) is introduced. The basic working principle of the LPWUR is that the receiving end includes a first module and a second module. The first module is a main communication module (MR) for transmitting and receiving mobile communication data, and the second module is a low-power wake-up receiving module (LP-WUR, abbreviated as LR) for receiving a wake-up signal. The terminal opens the low-power wake-up receiving module to listen to the LP-WUS and closes the main communication module in the energy-saving state. When the network has downlink data to be sent, the network will send a wake-up signal to the terminal. After the terminal listens to the wake-up signal through the low-power wake-up receiving module, the main communication module is triggered from off to on through a series of judgments, and at this time the low-power wake-up receiving module enters the off state from the working state. The low-power wake-up receiving module can be continuously opened or intermittently opened, and can receive the low-power wake-up signal when opened.

[0031] (II) Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement

[0032] After the terminal (user equipment, UE) successfully camps on a cell, it will continuously perform the measurement of the cell. In order to reduce the energy consumption caused by the measurement as much as possible, the UE compares the measurement results of the reference signal received power (Reference Signal Received Power, RSRP) / reference signal received quality (Reference Signal Received Quality, RSRQ) of the serving cell with the intra-frequency measurement start threshold (Sintrasearch) and the inter-frequency measurement start threshold (Snonintrasearch), as a judgment condition for whether to start the measurement of the neighbor cell.

[0033] The UE measures the serving cell signal, detects the serving cell signal strength Srxlev or quality Squal.

[0034] Intra-frequency measurement start criterion: Srxlev <= Sintrasearch or Squal <= Snonintrasearch.

[0035] Inter-frequency measurement start criterion (for the same priority or lower priority frequency point): Srxlev <= Snonintrasearch or Squal <= Sintrasearch.

[0036] (III) RRM measurement relaxation

[0037] RRM measurement is used to assist UE mobility management, for example, when the signal quality of a neighbor cell is better than that of the serving cell, a Radio Resource Control idle (RRC-idle) or Radio Resource Control inactive (RRC-inactive) state UE will be triggered to reselect to the neighbor cell. RRM measurement is achieved by the UE measuring the signal quality of the serving cell and neighbor cells at a certain frequency; the higher the RRM measurement frequency, the higher the UE power consumption; the higher the RRM measurement frequency, the more timely the UE can detect changes in signal quality and timely trigger reselection to a suitable serving cell (i.e., good mobility performance guarantee).

[0038] In some cases, the terminal can evaluate its own mobility state, such as low mobility (e.g., low moving speed or stationary); at the same time, the terminal can also evaluate its relative position in the cell (e.g., whether it is located at the edge of the cell). Generally speaking, the probability of a terminal located at the center of the cell and / or low mobility reselecting to a neighbor cell is much smaller than that of a terminal located at the edge of the cell and / or high mobility reselecting to a neighbor cell. For terminals with low reselection probability, appropriate RRM measurement relaxation can effectively reduce UE power consumption with limited reduction in mobility performance guarantee.

[0039] The method of RRM measurement relaxation includes prolonging the measurement period or reducing the number of layer 1 measurement samples, etc. The UE determines whether RRM measurement relaxation can be performed based on the judgment criterion of RRM measurement relaxation.

[0040] Two sets of measurement relaxation criteria are introduced for RRM measurement of non-connected terminals, which are the terminal not located at the edge of the cell criterion and the low mobility criterion, and the two criteria are measured based on the cell-level measurement results of the terminal in the serving cell. Based on network configuration, when one or both of the above criteria are met, the UE can perform RRM measurement relaxation.

[0041] The two criteria are introduced respectively as follows.

[0042] 1. Terminal not located at cell edge criterion

[0043] For this criterion, the network configures an RSRP threshold (S SearchThresholdP ), and can also configure an RSRQ threshold (S SearchThresholdQ ). When the RSRP of the terminal on the serving cell is greater than S SearchThresholdP , and the network configures the RSRQ threshold, the RSRQ of the terminal on the serving cell is greater than S SearchThresholdQ , it is considered that the terminal meets the terminal not located at cell edge criterion.

[0044] The S SearchThresholdP configured by the network for the terminal not located at cell edge criterion needs to be less than S IntrasearchP and S nonIntrasearchP . If the network also configures the RSRQ threshold for the terminal not located at cell edge criterion, the RSRQ threshold for the terminal not located at cell edge criterion needs to be less than S IntrasearchQ and S nonIntrasearchQ .

[0045] 2. Low mobility criterion

[0046] For this criterion, the network configures the evaluation time T SearchDeltaP of RSRP change and the RSRP change value threshold S SearchDeltaP . When the RSRP change of the terminal on the serving cell in a period of time T SearchDeltaP is less than S SearchDeltaP , it is considered that the terminal meets the low mobility criterion.

[0047] After the terminal completes cell selection / reselection, it needs to perform normal RRM measurement for at least a period of time TSearchDeltaP.

[0048] In the related art, in order to reduce power consumption, the terminal in the RRC-idle state or the RRC-inactive state can enter LP-WUS listening, or measure whether the measurement relaxation criterion is met by using the cell-level measurement result of the terminal on the serving cell, and if the measurement relaxation criterion is met, RRM measurement relaxation is performed. There is no related discussion on how to determine whether to enter / exit LP-WUS listening, whether to enter or exit RRM measurement relaxation / offloading, and the relationship between the various entering and exiting conditions.

[0049] The paging listening and measurement relaxation method and terminal provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in combination with the drawings and some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0050] FIG. 2 is a flow diagram of a paging monitoring and measurement relaxation method provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2, the paging monitoring and measurement relaxation method includes the following steps.

[0051] In step 200, the terminal performs a first operation in an idle state or an inactive state.

[0052] The first operation includes at least one of the following:

[0053] In a case where a first condition is met, the terminal enters a first state.

[0054] In a case where a second condition is met, the terminal exits the first state.

[0055] In a case where a third condition is met, the terminal enters a second state.

[0056] In a case where a fourth condition is met, the terminal exits the second state.

[0057] In a case where a fifth condition is met, the terminal enters a third state.

[0058] In a case where a sixth condition is met, the terminal exits the third state.

[0059] In a case where a seventh condition is met, the terminal enters a fourth state.

[0060] In a case where an eighth condition is met, the terminal exits the fourth state.

[0061] In the above embodiments, the first state, the second state, the third state, and the fourth state can be replaced by a first mode, a second mode, a third mode, and a fourth mode, respectively.

[0062] The first state includes at least one of the following:

[0063] The terminal monitors first information sent by a network side device, and the first information is information related to low-power wake-up.

[0064] The terminal determines whether to monitor a first message based on the monitoring of the first information, and the first message includes a paging message or a paging early indication (PEI) and a paging message.

[0065] It can be understood that, in a case where the terminal enters the first state, the terminal monitors the above first information, and determines whether to monitor the first message based on the monitoring of the first information.

[0066] In the embodiments of the present application, entering can be replaced by starting to be in, being in, and exiting can be replaced by no longer being in, not being in.

[0067] The information related to low-power wake-up can be an LP-WUS or other signals / channels related to low-power wake-up, and the specific name is not limited.

[0068] Optionally, the first state can be referred to as a LP-WUS monitoring state.

[0069] The second state comprises at least one of the following:

[0070] The first module of the terminal has a lower measurement requirement for the serving cell;

[0071] The second module of the terminal measures the serving cell.

[0072] It should be noted that the first module is used to operate other signals / channels except for low-power-wakeup-related signals / channels, and the operation comprises at least one of the following: receiving and transmitting.

[0073] The second module is used to operate low-power-wakeup-related signals / channels, and the operation comprises at least one of the following: monitoring and receiving.

[0074] The first module can be a transceiver module, for example, a main radio (MR) module, which is responsible for operating other signals / channels except for low-power-wakeup-related signals / channels.

[0075] The second module can be a receiving module, for example, a low-power-wakeup-receiving (LP-WUR, LR) module, which is responsible for operating low-power-wakeup-related signals / channels.

[0076] In the second state, the first module of the terminal has a lower measurement requirement for the serving cell, which means that the measurement of the first module of the terminal for the serving cell is relaxed, for example, the measurement period is larger, the measurement sampling number is smaller, and the measurement frequency is lower. The second module of the terminal measures the serving cell.

[0077] Optionally, the second state can be referred to as a serving cell measurement relaxed state, or a serving cell MR RRM measurement relaxed state.

[0078] The third state comprises at least one of the following:

[0079] The first module of the terminal stops measuring the serving cell;

[0080] The second module of the terminal measures the serving cell.

[0081] It can be understood that in the third state, the first module of the terminal does not perform the measurement of the serving cell, which can be referred to as a serving cell measurement offloading state, or a serving cell MRRM measurement offloading state, that is, the measurement of the serving cell is completely performed by the second module of the terminal, and the terminal offloads the measurement operation to the second module of the terminal. The second module of the terminal measures the serving cell.

[0082] The fourth state includes at least one of the following:

[0083] The measurement requirement of the first module of the terminal on the neighbor cell becomes low;

[0084] The second module of the terminal measures the neighbor cell;

[0085] In the fourth state, the measurement requirement of the first module of the terminal on the neighbor cell becomes low, which can be understood as that the measurement of the first module of the terminal on the neighbor cell is stopped or relaxed, for example, the measurement period becomes larger, the measurement sample number becomes smaller, the measurement times become less, and the like. The second module of the terminal measures the neighbor cell.

[0086] Optionally, the fourth state can be referred to as a neighbor cell measurement relaxation state, or a neighbor cell MRRM measurement relaxation state.

[0087] It should be noted that the terminal is in the fourth state, which is further measurement relaxation compared with the neighbor cell measurement relaxation in the current protocol, that is, the measurement requirement of the terminal in the fourth state is lower than the measurement requirement of the neighbor cell measurement relaxation in the current protocol. Optionally, the current protocol includes: 3GPP Rel-16, or 3GPP Rel-17.

[0088] The embodiments of the present application define the above four states and the conditions for entering or exiting the above four states, so that the terminal can accurately determine whether to enter or exit the LP-WUS monitoring state, whether to enter or exit the RRM measurement relaxation / offloading state according to the measurement result of the serving cell and / or the measurement result of the neighbor cell, and realize terminal energy saving.

[0089] In some embodiments, the first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0090] The first target is greater than and / or equal to a first threshold;

[0091] The terminal is in the second state;

[0097] Optionally, the terminal entering the first state needs to satisfy that the first target is greater than and / or equal to the first threshold.

[0098] Optionally, the terminal is in a second state, which can be replaced by that the terminal has entered the second state, or a third condition for the terminal entering the second state is satisfied, or a fourth condition for the terminal exiting the second state is not satisfied.

[0099] Optionally, the terminal is in a third state, which can be replaced by that the terminal has entered the third state, or a fifth condition for the terminal entering the third state is satisfied, or a sixth condition for the terminal exiting the third state is not satisfied.

[0100] Optionally, the terminal is in a fourth state, which can be replaced by that the terminal has entered the fourth state, or a seventh condition for the terminal entering the fourth state is satisfied, or an eighth condition for the terminal exiting the fourth state is not satisfied.

[0101] Optionally, when the terminal enters the first state, it needs to satisfy that the terminal is in at least one of a second state, a third state, and a fourth state, which can be understood as that when the UE enters the LP-WUS monitoring state, it needs to satisfy that the MR RRM measurement of the serving cell is relaxed, and / or the MR RRM measurement of the neighbor cell is relaxed, and / or the MR RRM measurement of the serving cell is offloaded to the LR.

[0102] The terminal having no uplink data to send can be understood as that the upper layer of the terminal has data generated or arrived or needs to be sent. The upper layer of the terminal, for example, an application layer. Optionally, when the terminal enters the first state, it needs to satisfy that the terminal has no uplink data to send.

[0103] Optionally, the uplink data includes signaling plane data or user plane data.
