It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, only the base station in the NR system is taken as an example for introduction, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.

[0042] In the related art, the network side device (such as a base station) performs switching decision and other operations based on a layer three (L3) filtered cell measurement value. The related art is based on the beam measurement value obtained by actual measurement to obtain the cell measurement value, and does not involve how to perform beam selection and merging based on the predicted value to obtain the cell value; nor does it involve how to obtain the layer three filtered cell value based on the predicted layer three filtered cell value.

[0043] After introducing the Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement prediction, for the beam level measurement prediction, one scenario is that a part of beams (hereinafter second beams) of a cell perform actual measurement to obtain actual measurement values of the beams, while another part of beams (hereinafter first beams) of the cell can obtain predicted values of the beams through the first AI model. Due to the problem of inaccuracy / error / prediction accuracy of the predicted values, that is, there is a certain deviation between the predicted values and the actual values, if the actual measurement values of a part of beams and the predicted values of another part of beams are simply averaged, in the case that the predicted values of the beams and the actual values have a large deviation, the generated cell value (including the layer three filtered cell value) will also have a large deviation from the actual value, which can cause unreasonable switching, thereby affecting the user experience. How to generate a more accurate cell value (including the layer three filtered cell value) based on the predicted values of a part of beams and the actual measurement values of another part of beams is one of the problems to be solved by the embodiments of the present application.

[0044] In addition, the layer three filtered cell value is inaccurate, including: 1) for the above beam level measurement prediction, the inaccuracy of the predicted values of a part of beams causes the inaccuracy of the layer three filtered cell value; 2) for the cell level measurement prediction, if the predicted cell value output by the second AI model is the layer three filtered cell value, similarly, the predicted cell value can be inaccurate. Due to the problem of inaccuracy of the layer three filtered cell value, the layer three filtered cell value will have a large deviation from the actual value, and triggering the measurement report based on the cell value with a large deviation can cause unreasonable switching. How to perform layer three filtering based on the inaccurate layer three filtered cell value is one of the problems to be solved by the embodiments of the present application.

[0045] In addition, how to improve the accuracy and rationality of the selected beam in the beam selection process for beam reporting or in the beam selection process for generating a cell value based on a beam value is also a problem to be solved by the present application.

[0065] wherein, M c is the first cell value, B x is the selected first beam value or the beam measurement value of the second beam, c x is B xcorresponding weight factor, m is the number of beams participating in generating the first cell value, 1≤x≤m, the second beam is a beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain a beam measurement value and is selected to generate the first cell value of the first cell.

[0066] In this embodiment, at least one beam participates in beam selection, and the selected beam participates in the combination to generate the first cell value of the first cell. Among the selected at least one beam, there are not only at least one first beam in the first beam set, but also at least one second beam in the second beam set.

[0067] In one embodiment, the weight factor corresponding to the second beam is 1, so that the processing of the second beam is consistent with the existing mechanism, or the network side device configures a weight factor for the second beam, thereby increasing the flexibility of calculation.

[0068] In one embodiment, the layer three filtering of the first beam value of the first beam based on the first information and the beam filtering coefficient filtered by layer three includes: filtering the first beam value by layer three based on the following formula: F n =(1-a2*x2)*F n-1 +a2*x2*M n ;

[0069] Wherein, F n is the value filtered by layer three; F n-1 is the value filtered by layer three last time; a2 is the beam filtering coefficient; x2 is the second adjustment coefficient; M n is the first beam value.

[0070] In scheme 1, since the weight factor is related to the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam, for example, the lower the prediction accuracy, the lower the weight factor used by the first beam, thereby reducing the inaccuracy of the first cell value caused by the inaccurate prediction of the first beam, improving the accuracy of the first cell value, and helping to improve the mobility performance.

[0071] In scheme 1, the first beam value of the first beam is filtered by layer three based on the second adjustment coefficient corresponding to the first beam and the beam filtering coefficient filtered by layer three. Generally speaking, high prediction accuracy indicates that the first beam value has high credibility, so a high second adjustment coefficient can be corresponded to, thereby increasing the accuracy of the first beam value filtered by layer three.

[0072] Scheme 2: filtering the second cell value by layer three based on the first information and the cell filtering coefficient filtered by layer three; wherein the prediction accuracy information is second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value, and the first information is a first adjustment coefficient used to adjust the cell filtering coefficient.

[0073] In scheme 2, the terminal determining the first information based on the prediction accuracy information includes: the terminal determining the first information based on the second prediction accuracy information and second information; wherein the second information includes at least one of: a mapping relationship between the second prediction accuracy information and the first information, and a first threshold.

[0074] In an embodiment, in the case that the prediction accuracy corresponding to the second prediction accuracy information is less than or equal to the first threshold: when performing layer three filtering on the second cell value, the first adjustment coefficient takes a value of 0 or does not perform layer three filtering based on the second cell value.

[0075] In an embodiment, before the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information and second information, the terminal further receives the second information from a network side device.

[0076] In an embodiment, the second cell value is predicted based on a second AI model, and the second prediction accuracy information includes at least one of:

[0077] 1) prediction accuracy output by the second AI model.

[0078] 2) current prediction accuracy of the second AI model.

[0079] 3) prediction accuracy associated with the second AI model.

[0080] In another embodiment, the second cell value is the first cell value; the second prediction accuracy information is the first prediction accuracy information; or the second prediction accuracy information is an average of prediction accuracies corresponding to a plurality of first prediction accuracy information. That is, scheme 2 can be based on scheme 1 to obtain the first cell value, and perform layer three filtering on the first cell value.

[0081] In an embodiment, the layer three filtering of the second cell value based on the first information and the cell filtering coefficient of layer three filtering includes: performing layer three filtering on the second cell value based on the following formula: F n = (1 - a1 * x1) * F n-1 + a1 * x1 * M n ;

[0082] wherein F n is the value after layer three filtering; F n-1 is the value after layer three filtering last time; a1 is the cell filtering coefficient; x1 is the first adjustment coefficient; M n is the second cell value.

[0083] Optionally, in order to be compatible with the existing mechanism, for M n In the case that the second cell value is completely based on actual measurement, the above formula can also be used uniformly, and the first adjustment coefficient can be 1, that is, no adjustment is needed.

[0084] Generally, high prediction accuracy indicates that the second cell value is highly reliable, so the corresponding first adjustment coefficient is high, and x1 is a coefficient less than or equal to 1, which increases the accuracy of the second cell value after layer 3 filtering.

[0085] Option 3: Obtain a third beam value based on the first information and a second beam value of the first beam, and perform beam selection for beam reporting based on the third beam value; wherein the second beam value is a beam value after layer 3 filtering of the first beam value of the first beam predicted based on a first AI model.

[0086] In one embodiment, obtaining a third beam value based on the first information and a second beam value of the first beam can be: multiplying the second beam value of the first beam by a value indicated by the first information to obtain the third beam value; wherein the value indicated by the first information is a positive number less than or equal to 1.

[0087] In one embodiment, obtaining a third beam value based on the first information and a second beam value of the first beam can be: subtracting a value indicated by the first information from the second beam value of the first beam to obtain the third beam value; wherein the value indicated by the first information is a number greater than or equal to 0.

[0088] Since the second beam value of the first beam has a prediction factor, multiplying or subtracting the value indicated by the first information can reduce the likelihood of the first beam being selected for reporting, thereby improving the accuracy of beam selection.

[0089] In option 3, the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information includes: the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information and second information; wherein the second information includes at least one of: a mapping relationship between the prediction accuracy information and the first information, a first threshold.

[0090] In one embodiment, in the case that the prediction accuracy corresponding to the prediction accuracy information is less than or equal to the first threshold: when performing beam selection for beam reporting, the first information takes a value of 0 or the first beam is not selected for beam reporting (that is, the first beam is excluded when selecting a beam).

[0091] In one embodiment, before the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information and the second information, the terminal further receives the second information from a network side device.

[0092] In an embodiment, the performing the beam selection for the beam reporting based on the third beam value comprises: selecting, from at least one of the first beams and at least one of the third beams of the first cell, up to X beams based on the third beam value and the beam value corresponding to the third beam, the X beams including a beam with the highest beam value and up to X-1 beams higher than a second threshold, wherein the third beam is a beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain the beam value, and X is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0093] In this embodiment, the first beam in the first beam set and the third beam in the second beam set can participate in the beam selection for the beam reporting together, wherein the beam value of the first beam in the first beam set has a prediction factor, and the third beam in the second beam set is actually measured, and the two participate in the beam selection together.

[0094] Scheme 4: obtaining a fourth beam value based on the first information and the first beam value of the first beam, and performing the beam selection for generating the first cell value based on the fourth beam value; wherein the first beam value is a predicted beam value based on a first AI model.

[0095] In an embodiment, obtaining the fourth beam value based on the first information and the first beam value of the first beam can be: multiplying the first beam value of the first beam by a value indicated by the first information to obtain the fourth beam value; wherein the value indicated by the first information is a positive number less than or equal to 1.

[0096] In an embodiment, obtaining the fourth beam value based on the first information and the first beam value of the first beam can be: subtracting a value indicated by the first information from the first beam value of the first beam to obtain the fourth beam value; wherein the value indicated by the first information is a number greater than or equal to 0.

[0097] Since the first beam value of the first beam is predicted, multiplying or subtracting the value indicated by the first information can reduce the possibility of the first beam being selected, thereby improving the accuracy of the first cell value.

[0098] In scheme 4, the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information comprises: the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information and second information; wherein the second information includes at least one of: a mapping relationship between the prediction accuracy information and the first information, and a first threshold.

[0099] In an embodiment, in a case where the prediction accuracy corresponding to the prediction accuracy information is less than or equal to the first threshold: when performing the beam selection for generating the first cell value, the first information takes a value of 0 or the first beam is not selected to generate the first cell value.

[0100] In an embodiment, before the terminal determines the first information based on the prediction accuracy information and the second information, the method further comprises: receiving, by the terminal, the second information from a network side device.

[0101] In an embodiment, the performing, based on the fourth beam value, the beam selection for generating the first cell value comprises: in the at least one first beam and at least one third beam of the first cell, selecting, based on the fourth beam value and a beam value corresponding to the third beam, a maximum of N beams higher than a third threshold to generate the first cell value, wherein the third beam is a beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain a beam value, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0102] In this embodiment, the first beam in the first beam set and the third beam in the second beam set can participate in the beam selection for generating the first cell value together, wherein the beam value of the first beam in the first beam set has a prediction factor, and the third beam in the second beam set is actually measured, both of which participate in the beam selection together.

[0103] The prediction-related processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises: a terminal obtaining prediction accuracy information; determining first information based on the prediction accuracy information; and performing at least one of the following: 1) generating a first cell value based on the first information and a first beam value of a first beam, improving the accuracy of the first cell value, and being beneficial to improving mobility performance; or performing layer three filtering on a first beam value of a first beam based on the first information and a layer three filtering coefficient of a filtered beam, and increasing the accuracy of the layer three filtered first beam value; 2) performing layer three filtering on a second cell value based on the first information and a layer three filtering coefficient of a filtered cell, and increasing the accuracy of the layer three filtered second cell value; 3) obtaining a third beam value based on the first information and a second beam value of a first beam, and performing beam selection for beam reporting based on the third beam value, thereby improving the accuracy of the beam selection; and 4) obtaining a fourth beam value based on the first information and a first beam value of a first beam, and performing beam selection for generating a first cell value based on the fourth beam value, thereby improving the accuracy of the first cell value.

[0104] Since the predicted beam value or cell value obtained through the AI model has a prediction accuracy problem, the embodiments of the present application determine and use different weight factors for generating a cell value or adjustment coefficients for layer three filtering based on the prediction accuracy, thereby alleviating the mobility performance problem caused by inaccurate prediction.

[0105] To further illustrate the prediction-related processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application, the following will illustrate several specific embodiments.

[0106] Embodiment One

[0107] The embodiment is directed to how to generate more accurate first cell values in the scenario of beam level measurement prediction. The main idea is that the UE obtains a first beam value of at least one first beam in a first beam set through a first AI model, the first beam set is a set of beams in a first cell for which beam value prediction is performed through the first AI model, the first beam value includes a predicted beam value of the first beam or a predicted beam value range of the first beam; the UE determines a weight factor corresponding to the first beam based on first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam, the weight factor is a weight factor corresponding to the first beam when the first beam participates in combining the first cell value, and the UE generates a first cell value (including a cell value before layer three filtering) of the first cell based on the first beam value of the at least one first beam and the corresponding weight factor. Since the weight factor is related to the prediction accuracy of the first beam value of the first beam, the mobility performance problem caused by inaccurate prediction is reduced.

[0108] As shown in FIG. 3, the embodiment includes the following steps:

[0109] Step 1: The UE obtains a first beam value of at least one first beam in a first beam set through a first AI model.

[0110] The first beam set is a set of beams in a first cell for which beam value prediction is performed through the first AI model, and the first beam value can be a predicted beam value (for example, -75 dBm) of the first beam or a predicted beam value range (for example, a range from -70 dBm to -80 dBm) of the first beam.

[0111] Optionally, the first AI model also outputs first prediction accuracy information (or error range) of the first beam, that is, the UE performs inference of the AI model to output the first beam value of the first beam and the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam.

[0112] In this embodiment, the first prediction accuracy information can be a percentage, which can represent that the actual value is within the percentage range above and below the predicted value, such as 10%, which means that the actual value is within the range of 10% above and below the predicted value; or it can be a difference value, which can represent that the actual value is within the difference value range above and below the predicted value, such as 5 dBm, which means that the actual value is within the range of 5 dBm above and below the predicted value. It should be noted that the first AI model performs one inference, which can predict multiple first beams. Here, the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam output by the first AI model can be that the first AI model outputs one first prediction accuracy information for each of the multiple first beams, i.e., the first prediction accuracy information of each first beam can be different, or the first AI model outputs one first prediction accuracy information, which is applicable to each of the multiple first beams, i.e., the multiple first beams have the same first prediction accuracy information.

[0113] In this step, the UE can also perform measurement on at least one beam (hereinafter referred to as a second beam) in the second beam set under the first cell, and obtain a beam measurement value of the at least one second beam. The second beam set is a set of beams under the first cell that have beam measurement values obtained by actual measurement. The UE inputs the beam measurement value of the at least one second beam into the first AI model for model inference, and obtains a first beam value of the at least one first beam.

[0114] Step 2: The UE obtains the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam.

[0115] The first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam can be at least one of the following:

[0116] 1) The prediction accuracy of the first beam value of the first beam itself, in which case different first beams can correspond to different prediction accuracies.

[0117] 2) The current prediction accuracy of the first AI model, for example, the UE or a network side device can monitor the first AI model to obtain the current prediction accuracy of the first AI model.

[0118] 3) The prediction accuracy associated with the first AI model itself, which can be associated with the first AI model and can be considered as attribute information of the first AI model.

[0119] The first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam can be output by the first AI model, such as in the case of "the first AI model further outputs the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam" described in step 1; or obtained based on the output of the first AI model, such as in the case where the first beam value includes "a beam value range of the predicted first beam", the UE can obtain the first prediction accuracy information based on the beam value range, such as the difference between the upper and lower boundaries of the beam value range divided by 2 to obtain the first prediction accuracy information. For example, if the beam value range is "from -70dBm to -80dBm", the first prediction accuracy information is 5dBm deviation.

[0120] Step 3: The UE determines the weight factor corresponding to the first beam based on the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam, and the weight factor is the weight factor corresponding to the first beam when the first beam (selected) participates in producing the first cell value.

[0121] Regarding how the UE determines the weight factor corresponding to the first beam based on the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam, possible methods include:

[0122] Method 1: left to UE implementation, not standardized. Optionally, in the measurement report (such as when the UE sends the first cell value of the first cell to the network side device (such as a base station)), the UE indicates the weight factor used to the network side device.

[0123] Method 2: the UE determines the weight factor corresponding to the first beam based on the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam and second information, wherein the second information can be at least one of: a mapping relationship between the first prediction accuracy information (such as a prediction accuracy range, or a prediction accuracy category) and the weight factor, and a first threshold.

[0124] As shown in FIG. 4, the second information can be sent by the network side device to the UE, such as through Radio Resource Control (RRC) dedicated signaling when configuring the first AI model or measurement configuration, or broadcast in the system information of the cell; the second information can also be protocol specified.

[0125] The mapping relationship information between the first prediction accuracy information and the weight factor can be: for example, the prediction accuracy range is within 3dBm deviation, corresponding to the weight factor 0.8, the prediction accuracy range is between 3dBm to 5dBm deviation, corresponding to the weight factor 0.6, and the prediction accuracy range is above 5dBm deviation, corresponding to the weight factor 0.4; for another example, the prediction accuracy category is high prediction accuracy, corresponding to the weight factor 0.9, the prediction accuracy category is medium prediction accuracy, corresponding to the weight factor 0.7, and the prediction accuracy category is low prediction accuracy, corresponding to the weight factor 0.4.

[0126] Optionally, when the prediction accuracy corresponding to the first prediction accuracy information is lower than or equal to the first threshold, it is determined that the weight factor corresponding to the first beam in generating the first cell value is 0.

[0127] Step 4: The UE generates the first cell value of the first cell based on the first beam value of the at least one first beam and the corresponding weight factor.

[0128] Since the weight factor is related to the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam value of the first beam, for example, the lower the prediction accuracy of the first beam, the lower the weight factor used by the first beam, thereby reducing the problem of inaccurate cell value caused by inaccurate prediction of the first beam, thereby causing the problem of mobility performance.

[0129] Specifically, at least one first beam participates in beam selection, and the selected beam participates in consolidation to generate the first cell value of the first cell. For the beam selection operation, the first beam in the first beam set and the second beam in the second beam set participate in beam selection together, and for the first beam in the first beam set, considering that its first beam value is predicted, there are two methods:

[0130] Method A: Based on the predicted first beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set, the beam selection is participated, for example, if the predicted first beam value of a first beam is higher than a third threshold (such as absThreshSS-BlocksConsolidation) and is one of the best N (such as nrofSS-BlocksToAverage) beams, then the first beam is selected to participate in consolidation to generate the first cell value of the first cell, which is simple and has little protocol impact.

[0131] Method B (corresponding to the previous scheme 4): The predicted first beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set is multiplied by a coefficient less than or equal to 1 (such as the coefficient can be the weight factor corresponding to the first beam, or other parameters such as the parameters configured by the base station), or the predicted first beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set is subtracted by a number greater than or equal to 0, and the fourth beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set after multiplication or subtraction is used to participate in beam selection.

[0132] For example, among the at least one first beam and at least one third beam of the first cell, the maximum N beams whose fourth beam value and corresponding beam value of the third beam are higher than the third threshold are selected to generate the first cell value, wherein the third beam is a beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain the beam value, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0133] Since the first beam value of the first beam is predicted, multiplying by a coefficient or subtracting a number can reduce the likelihood of the first beam being selected, thereby improving the accuracy of the cell value.

[0134] Optionally, in the case where the first prediction accuracy information of the first beam corresponds to a prediction accuracy less than or equal to a first threshold, the first beam does not participate in the generation of the first cell value, that is, even if the signal of the first beam is higher than the threshold for beam selection, since the prediction accuracy corresponding to the first beam is low, the first beam is not selected (i.e. excluded) to participate in the generation of the first cell value (does not occupy the quota of N), at this time, the maximum N (nrofSS-BlocksToAverage) beams whose signal is higher than the third threshold (absThreshSS-BlocksConsolidation) and whose prediction accuracy is higher than the first threshold are selected to participate in the generation of the first cell value.

[0135] It should be noted that in the case where the first prediction accuracy information output by the first AI model is a prediction value range, the first beam value described above can be the middle value, or the minimum value, or the maximum value of the prediction value range. Optionally, which one (middle value, minimum value, or maximum value) to be used can be configured by the network side device.

[0136] The number of selected beams is not fixed, and in the at least one selected beam, there can be at least one first beam in the first beam set, or there can be at least one second beam in the second beam set. For the operation of consolidating to generate the first cell value of the first cell, the method can be: the first cell value is equal to the sum of the product of each selected beam and its weight factor, and then divided by the sum of the weight factors, the formula can be: M c =(c1*B1+c2*B2+…+c m *B m ) / (c1+c2+…+c m )

[0137] Wherein, M c is the first cell value, B x is the beam measurement value of the selected first beam or second beam, c x is the weight factor corresponding to B x , m is the number of beams participating in the generation of the first cell value, 1≤x≤m, and the second beam is a beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain a beam measurement value and is selected to generate the first cell value.

[0138] For the above method, another method is: the first cell value is equal to the sum of the product of each selected beam and its final weight factor, wherein the final weight factor of a beam is the weight factor of the beam divided by the sum of the plurality of weight factors, and the formula can be: Mc = d1*B1 + d2*B2 +... + dm*Bm m * B m where d x = c x / (c1 + c2 +... + cm) m

[0139] M c is the first cell value, B x is the selected first beam value or the second beam measurement value, c x is the corresponding weight factor of B x , m is the number of beams participating in the generation of the first cell value, 1≤x≤m, and the second beam is the beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain the beam measurement value and is selected to generate the first cell value.

[0140] For the second beams in the second beam set (i.e., the actually measured beams), the weight factor of the second beam can be fixed as 1, so that the processing of the second beam remains consistent with the existing mechanism, or the network side device can also configure a weight factor for the second beam, thereby increasing the flexibility of calculation.

[0141] Embodiment Two

[0142] This embodiment (corresponding to the above scheme 2) is directed to the problem of how to perform layer three filtering in the presence of inaccurate second cell values before layer three filtering. As shown in FIG. 5, there are two scenarios as follows:

[0143] 1a. The UE performs measurement to obtain the actual measurement value of the beam in the second beam set of the first cell.

[0144] 2a. The UE performs AI inference based on the actual measurement value of the beam in the second beam set to obtain the predicted value of the beam in the first beam set of the first cell.

[0145] 3a. The UE generates the cell value before layer three filtering of the first cell based on the actual measurement value of the beam in the second beam set and the predicted value of the beam in the first beam set.

[0146] 1b. The UE performs AI inference through an AI model to obtain the cell value before layer three filtering of the first cell.

[0147] 4. The UE performs layer three filtering based on the cell value before layer three filtering of the first cell to obtain the cell value after layer three filtering of the first cell.

[0148] 5. The UE performs measurement event evaluation, conditional handover judgment, etc. based on the cell value after layer three filtering of the first cell.

[0149] ​Among them, steps 1a-3a are the scene of beam-level measurement prediction (hereinafter referred to as scene one), and step 1b is the scene of cell-level measurement prediction (i.e., the second AI model directly outputs the layer three pre-filtering cell value of the first cell, which is referred to as scene two). Embodiment one is a solution for step 3a, and the present embodiment is a solution for step 4.

[0150] In order to cope with the influence of signal fluctuation, layer three needs to perform layer three smoothing (filtering) on the measurement value of the cell, that is, to perform weighted average on the latest cell measurement value and the previous smoothing value, so as to obtain the smoothed cell measurement value, which is used for measurement event evaluation and cell measurement value reporting in the measurement report. The network side device can control the smoothing degree (network side device configuration) by adjusting the weighting coefficient (base station configures k value, and obtains filtering coefficient a based on k value).

[0151] The main idea of the embodiment is that in scene one or scene two, the UE obtains the second cell value (layer three pre-filtering cell value, i.e., M n ), and the second prediction accuracy information (or error range information) corresponding to the second cell value, the UE determines the first adjustment coefficient x1 based on the second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value, the first adjustment coefficient x1 is used to adjust the cell filtering coefficient a1, and the UE performs layer three filtering based on the second cell value of the first cell and the first adjustment coefficient.

[0152] As shown in FIG. 6, the embodiment includes the following steps:

[0153] Step 1: The UE obtains the second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value.

[0154] Step 2: The UE determines the first adjustment coefficient based on the second prediction accuracy information, and the first adjustment coefficient is used to adjust the cell filtering coefficient.

[0155] Step 3: The UE performs layer three filtering on the second cell value based on the first adjustment coefficient.

[0156] For step 1 of FIG. 6, how to obtain the second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value includes the following solutions:

[0157] For scene two, the second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value can be output by the second AI model at the same time as the output of the second cell value, or the current prediction accuracy of the second AI model can be obtained by monitoring the second AI model by the UE or the network side device; or it can be the prediction accuracy associated with the second AI model itself.

[0158] For scenario one, how the UE obtains the second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value before the third layer filtering of the first cell can be left to the UE to implement, or the first prediction accuracy information of the first AI model predicted by beam-level measurement can be used; or it can be the average value of the prediction accuracy corresponding to the first beam that participated in generating the second cell value (obtained from the first prediction accuracy information).

[0159] For step 2 in Figure 6, different second prediction accuracy information can correspond to different first adjustment coefficients. How can the UE determine the first adjustment coefficient based on the second prediction accuracy information corresponding to the second cell value? The following schemes are available:

[0160] Method 1: When the second prediction accuracy information is a percentage, use the second prediction accuracy information as the first adjustment coefficient.

[0161] Method 2: Leave it to the UE to implement, without standardization.

[0162] Method 3: The UE determines the first adjustment coefficient based on the second prediction accuracy information and the second information corresponding to the second cell value, wherein the second information may be at least one of the following: the mapping relationship between the second prediction accuracy information (such as prediction accuracy range or prediction accuracy category) and the first adjustment coefficient, and a first threshold.

[0163] The second information can be sent to the UE by the network-side equipment, such as when configuring the second AI model or measurement configuration, by sending it to the UE via RRC dedicated signaling, or by broadcasting system information of the cell; the second information can also be specified by the protocol.

[0164] Optionally, when the prediction accuracy corresponding to the second prediction accuracy information is lower than or equal to the first threshold, the third-level filtering is not performed, or in other words, the third-level filtering is performed, but the first adjustment coefficient value is 0.

[0165] For step 3 in Figure 6, the final filtering coefficient used for layer 3 filtering is a1*x1. Generally speaking, high prediction accuracy indicates high reliability of the second cell value, so the corresponding first adjustment coefficient x1 is high, where x1 is a coefficient less than or equal to 1.

[0166] The corresponding formula can be as follows: F n = (1 – a1 * x1) * F n-1 +a1*x1*M n ;

[0167] Among them, F n This is the value after three layers of filtering; F n-1 It is the value after the last layer 3 filtering; a1 is the cell filtering coefficient; x1 is the first adjustment coefficient; M n It is the value of the second cell.

[0168] Optionally, in order to be compatible with the existing mechanism, for M n In the case of completely basing the cell value on actual measurement, the above formula can also be uniformly used, and in this case, the first adjustment coefficient can be taken as 1, that is, no adjustment is needed.

[0169] Embodiment Three

[0170] Embodiments One and Two are directed to cell values, while this embodiment is directed to beam-based layer three filtering and selection reporting, mainly including:

[0171] Enhancement One (i.e., step 4 below) is similar to Embodiment Two, with the difference being that Embodiment Two is directed to cell value-based layer three filtering, while this embodiment is directed to beam value-based layer three filtering enhancement, that is, introducing an adjustment coefficient mechanism for beam-based layer three filtering: determining an adjustment coefficient based on the prediction accuracy information of the beam, and performing layer three filtering on the beam based on the adjustment coefficient.

[0172] Enhancement Two (i.e., step 5 below, see details of step 5 for specific enhancement scheme) is similar to the beam selection mechanism of step 4 of Embodiment One.

[0173] As shown in FIG. 7, this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0174] Steps 1 and 2: refer to steps 1 and 2 of Embodiment One.

[0175] Step 3: the UE determines a second adjustment coefficient based on the first prediction accuracy information corresponding to the first beam value of the first beam, and the second adjustment coefficient is used to adjust the beam filtering coefficient.

[0176] Different first prediction accuracy information can correspond to different second adjustment coefficients, and how the UE determines the second adjustment coefficient based on the first prediction accuracy information corresponding to the first beam value of the first beam can be:

[0177] Method 1: in the case of the first prediction accuracy information being a percentage, using the first prediction accuracy information as the second adjustment coefficient.

[0178] Method 2: left to UE implementation, without standardization.

[0179] Method 3: the UE determines the second adjustment coefficient based on the first prediction accuracy information and second information, wherein the second information can be at least one of: a mapping relationship between the first prediction accuracy information (such as a prediction accuracy range, or a prediction accuracy category) and the second adjustment coefficient, and a first threshold.

[0180] The second information can be sent by the network side device to the UE, such as being sent to the UE by RRC dedicated signaling when the first AI model or the measurement configuration is configured, or being broadcast by system information of the cell; or the second information can be defined by a protocol.

[0181] Optionally, when the prediction accuracy corresponding to the first prediction accuracy information is lower than or equal to the first threshold, the layer three filtering is not performed based on the first beam value, or in other words, the layer three filtering is performed but the second adjustment coefficient value is 0.

[0182] Optionally, the second information can be the same as the second information in Embodiment 2 to simplify the protocol complexity, or can be different to improve flexibility.

[0183] Step 4: The UE performs layer three filtering on the predicted first beam value of the first beam based on the second adjustment coefficient, that is, the final filtering coefficient used in the layer three filtering is a2*x2. Generally, high prediction accuracy indicates that the first beam value is highly reliable, and therefore corresponds to a high second adjustment coefficient x2. x2 is a coefficient less than or equal to 1.

[0184] Step 4 corresponds to the branch of “performing layer three filtering on the first beam value of the first beam based on the first information and the beam filtering coefficient of layer three filtering, the first information being a second adjustment coefficient corresponding to the first beam” in Scheme 1.

[0185] The corresponding formula can be as follows: n =(1-a2*x2)*F n-1 +a2*x2*M n

[0186] Wherein, F n is the value after layer three filtering; F n-1 is the value after the last layer three filtering; a2 is the beam filtering coefficient; x2 is the second adjustment coefficient; M n is the first beam value.

[0187] Optionally, in order to be compatible with the existing mechanism, for the case where M n is the beam value obtained based on actual measurement, the above formula can also be used uniformly, and x2 can be 1, that is, no adjustment is needed.

[0188] Step 5: The UE performs beam selection operation for beam reporting based on the layer 3 filtered second beam value of the first beam, the first beam in the first beam set and the second beam in the second beam set can participate in beam selection together, for the first beam in the first beam set, considering that its second beam value has a predicted factor, while the second beam in the second beam set is the actual measured beam value, the two are different, when participating in beam selection together, there are two methods as follows:

[0189] Method A: Participate in beam selection based on the layer 3 filtered second beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set, for example, if the layer 3 filtered second beam value of a first beam is higher than a second threshold (such as absThreshSS-BlocksConsolidation) and is one of the best X (such as maxNrofRS-IndexesToReport) beams of the first cell, then the first beam is selected for beam reporting, this method is simple and has little protocol impact.

[0190] Method B (Scheme 3): The layer 3 filtered second beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set is multiplied by a coefficient less than or equal to 1 (such as the second adjustment coefficient corresponding to the first beam determined in step 3, or other parameters such as parameters configured by the network side device), or the layer 3 filtered second beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set is subtracted by a number greater than or equal to 0, and participate in beam selection based on the third beam value of at least one first beam in the first beam set multiplied by the coefficient or subtracted by a number.

[0191] For example, among at least one first beam and at least one third beam of the first cell, based on the third beam value and the beam value corresponding to the third beam, at most X beams are selected for beam reporting, the X beams include the beam with the highest beam value and at most X-1 beams higher than the second threshold, wherein the third beam is the beam for which the terminal performs actual measurement to obtain the beam value, and X is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0192] Since the second beam value of the first beam has a predicted factor, multiplying the coefficient or subtracting a number can reduce the possibility of the first beam being selected for reporting.

[0193] Optionally, when the prediction accuracy corresponding to the first beam is lower than or equal to a first threshold, the first beam is not selected for reporting, that is, even if the signal of the first beam is higher than the threshold for beam selection, the first beam is not selected (that is, excluded) for reporting (does not occupy the quota of X) due to the low prediction accuracy corresponding to the first beam. At this time, the scheme is to select the maximum X (maxNrofRS-IndexesToReport) beams whose signal is higher than a second threshold (absThreshSS-BlocksConsolidation) and whose prediction accuracy is higher than the first threshold for beam reporting.

[0194] Finally, the UE reports the beam information corresponding to the selected beam to the network side device in the measurement report. The beam information can be a beam index, or a second beam value filtered by layer 3, and optionally, for method B, a third beam value multiplied by the coefficient.

[0195] It should be noted that the above two enhancements can be implemented independently, for example, the UE performs method A of steps 4 and 5, or step 4 is not enhanced (that is, instead of step 4, the UE filters the predicted first beam value of the first beam by layer 3 based on the existing mechanism), but performs method B of step 5; or can be implemented simultaneously, for example, the UE performs method B of steps 4 and 5.
