[0037] LTM

[0038] In a communication system, a terminal device can be provided with continuous communication service by a handover process. In order to further shorten the handover delay and guarantee the continuity of services, some communication standards (3GPP R18) support a handover procedure LTM based on layer 1 (L1) / layer 2 (L2) triggering.

[0039] FIG. 2 shows an example of an implementation procedure of LTM. The method shown in FIG. 2 is performed by a UE and a gNB. Among them, the gNB is only an example and can be replaced by other network devices. The method shown in FIG. 2 can include steps S210 to S280.

[0045] S260, the gNB determines the target cell based on the L1 measurement results reported by the UE, and instructs the UE to switch to the target cell through a media access control control element (MAC CE).

[0046] S270, if the UE currently has no valid timing advance (TA) or transmission configuration indication (TCI) state identifier (ID) of the target cell, then after receiving the LTM switching indication, the UE initiates a random access procedure to the target cell.

[0047] S280, LTM is completed. The UE can send an indication information of successful completion of LTM to the target cell.

[0048] Multi-frequency coordination

[0049] With the development of communication technology, some communication systems (for example, 6G systems) have put forward higher and higher requirements in terms of rate, delay, coverage, connection and other indicators. As the basis of wireless communication, spectrum resources are the key to meet the performance requirements of communication systems and achieve the success of communication networks. Taking the 6G system as an example, 6G spectrum needs to consider both new spectrum resources and spectrum repurposing. For 6G new spectrum resources, WRC-23 has confirmed that the 6425-7125MHz frequency band has become one of the available frequency bands for 6G, and WRC-27 will discuss whether to consider the 7-15GHz frequency band as an available frequency band for 6G. From the perspective of frequency band characteristics, the 6425-7125MHz and 7-15GHz frequency bands will be the main contributors to the capacity improvement of 6G systems, but their coverage capabilities are still limited compared to 5G FR1. Although the millimeter wave frequency band of 26GHz, 40GHz, etc. can significantly improve the system capacity, due to the higher frequency band characteristics, its coverage capability is more limited and can only be used as a supplement or enhancement means for the capacity improvement of 6G systems. For spectrum repurposing, repurposing the sub-1GHz frequency band can help improve coverage, but it is not a driver for the capacity improvement of 6G systems. In order to fully utilize the characteristics of different communication frequency bands, carrier aggregation (CA) is still one of the key tools for communication systems (for example, 6G).

[0050] The implementation of carrier aggregation in related technologies (for example, 4G / 5G) has certain limitations and drawbacks.

[0051] Firstly, since each carrier is modeled as a cell, and each cell has an expected physical layer overhead, this leads to a linear increase in the complexity and physical layer overhead of carrier aggregation with the number of aggregated cells. Therefore, the carrier aggregation technology in related technologies brings a high physical layer resource overhead.

[0052] Secondly, the carrier aggregation in the related art can bring a large amount of upper layer signaling overhead. For example, for the current terminal device air interface access capability reporting, the capability parameters of the terminal device are organized for each feature set (FS) or each feature set per component-carrier (FSPC). The terminal device needs to report the UE capability parameters for each FS or FSPC, which leads to a high signaling overhead of the capability reporting of the terminal device. Moreover, with the increase of the number of aggregated carriers, the signaling overhead problem will be further worsened.

[0053] In addition, the carrier aggregation in the related art can cause limitations in configuration and cannot achieve flexible adaptation to specific scenarios. Firstly, in the carrier aggregation in the related art, the uplink / downlink (UL / DL chain) is statically mapped to the uplink / downlink carrier / band (UL / DL carrier / band), which limits the number of configurable carriers or bands in actual deployment. Secondly, in the existing carrier aggregation, the uplink and downlink carriers are configured and used together. For downlink transmission, the related art has supported a relatively flexible downlink-only carrier (DL-only CA), allowing aggregation of multiple downlink carriers without the corresponding uplink carrier, which is beneficial in scenarios requiring more downlink bandwidth; for uplink transmission, only uplink carrier (UL-only CA) is still not supported, while the supplementary uplink (SUL) can support additional configuration of uplink transmission resources for one cell, but the SUL must be time-division multiplexed with the normal uplink carrier, thereby limiting its ability to increase uplink bandwidth and making it difficult to meet scenarios requiring large uplink data transmission.

[0054] Based on the analysis of the spectrum demand of the communication system and the carrier aggregation technology in the related art, the control plane of the communication system needs to continue to evolve on the basis of the traditional spectrum aggregation framework to support efficient and flexible spectrum aggregation and improve spectrum utilization. Multi-frequency coordination technology emerges as the times require. In the multi-frequency coordination technology, the carrier and the cell are decoupled, that is, the carrier is not constructed as a concept of cell.

[0055] In the related art, the mobility-related behavior (such as cell handover) is determined based on the channel quality of the serving cell, the neighbor cell or the candidate cell. However, with the development of technology, determining the mobility-related behavior based on the channel quality of the cell will have many problems. For example, in the multi-frequency coordination scenario, the carrier can no longer be constructed as a concept of cell, and it is unreasonable for the terminal device to perform the mobility-related behavior based on the channel quality of the cell.

[0056] FIG. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a wireless communication method according to an embodiment of the present application. The method shown in FIG. 3 can be performed by a terminal device.

[0057] The method shown in FIG. 3 can include step S310.

[0058] In step S310, the terminal device performs a first behavior based on the first measurement result.

[0059] The first behavior can be a behavior related to mobility. For example, the first behavior can be a behavior in an L3 handover procedure. For another example, the first behavior can be a behavior in an L3 conditional handover (CHO) procedure. For another example, the first behavior can be a behavior in an LTM procedure. For another example, the first behavior can be a behavior in a conditional LTM handover procedure.

[0060] Exemplarily, the first behavior can include one or more of the following: triggering reporting of the first measurement result (i.e., measurement reporting), performing a handover procedure, early synchronization, beam management, carrier / bandwidth / bandwidth part management. Wherein, the terminal device performing a handover procedure, early synchronization can be a behavior in conditional handover, that is, the present application can be applied in a conditional handover procedure. Wherein, the conditional handover can include L3 conditional handover or conditional LTM handover.

[0061] In LTM, the terminal device can receive a candidate cell configuration sent by the network. Wherein, each candidate cell configuration can include at least one carrier configuration. The candidate cell is also associated with a condition configuration, which can be used to trigger the terminal device to perform measurement reporting, or to trigger the terminal device to perform CLTM, or to perform an early synchronization procedure. Wherein, the condition configuration can be carrier level or beam level. According to the condition configuration, the terminal device can determine whether to trigger measurement reporting, or conditional LTM, or early synchronization procedure based on the first measurement result.

[0062] Taking the first behavior including triggering reporting of the first measurement result as an example, the method provided by the present application can be as shown in FIG. 4. The method shown in FIG. 4 can be performed by a terminal device and a network device. The method shown in FIG. 4 can include step S410. In step S410, the network device receives the first measurement result sent by the terminal device. Wherein, the first measurement result can be carried in a measurement report.

[0063] The first measurement result can comprise a carrier measurement result and / or a beam measurement result. The measurement quantity of the first measurement result can comprise one or more of the following: a reference signal received power (RSRP), a signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), a reference signal received quality (RSRQ), a block error ratio (BLER).

[0064] It should be noted that the first measurement result can be a pre-filtered result or a post-filtered result. For example, the carrier measurement result can be a pre-filtered result or a post-filtered result. For another example, the beam measurement result can be a pre-filtered result or a post-filtered result.

[0065] The terminal device can perform the first behavior based on the carrier measurement result and / or the beam measurement result. That is, in the present application, the mobility-related behavior can be determined based on the beam measurement result and / or the carrier measurement result, so that the first behavior can be performed based on more reasonable measurement results. Exemplarily, in a multi-frequency coordination scenario, the carrier is no longer constructed as a cell, and based on the first measurement result, the terminal device can more reasonably perform the first behavior. In particular, in the related art, in a CA scenario, the serving cell mainly relies on the measurement result of the primary cell (PCell). In a multi-frequency coordination scenario, the carrier is no longer modeled as the concept of a cell, and when the terminal device is in a mobility state, based on the present application, the terminal device can determine the behavior based on the measurement result at the beam or / and carrier level, thereby meeting the needs of the CA scenario.

[0066] It should be noted that in the present application, the carrier can be: a frequency, a band, a bandwidth, a bandwidth part. That is, the carrier in the present application can be replaced by a frequency, a band, a bandwidth, or a bandwidth part.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first measurement result can be determined based on the measurement result of at least one first cell. The first cell can comprise one or more of a serving cell, a candidate cell, a neighbor cell of the terminal device. In this case, the first measurement result can comprise one or more of the following: a first result, a second result. The first result and the second result are described below respectively.

[0068] The first result can be used to indicate a measurement result of a first carrier corresponding to the first cell. That is, the first measurement result can include a measurement result of one or more carriers determined based on the measurement result of the first cell, i.e., the terminal device can directly perform the first behavior according to the measured carrier measurement result.

[0069] As a possible implementation, the first carrier can include one or more of the following: a carrier with the best channel quality among carriers corresponding to the first cell, a currently activated / working carrier, a primary carrier, a default carrier, a carrier indicated by the network device, any carrier corresponding to the first cell. That is, the carrier measurement result included in the first measurement result can include a measurement result of one or more of the following: a carrier with the best channel quality among carriers corresponding to the first cell, a currently activated / working carrier, a primary carrier, a default carrier, a carrier indicated by the network device, any carrier corresponding to the first cell.

[0070] The second result can be calculated based on a measurement result of at least one carrier corresponding to the first cell. That is, the first measurement result can be calculated or processed from the measurement result of the carrier, i.e., the terminal device can process the measured carrier measurement result and perform the first behavior according to the processed carrier measurement result.

[0071] As a possible implementation, the second result can include one or more of the following: a result calculated based on a measurement result of N carriers with the best channel quality corresponding to the first cell, N being a positive integer; a result calculated based on a measurement result of at least one currently activated / working carrier; a result calculated based on a measurement result of at least one carrier indicated by the network device; a result calculated based on a measurement result of at least one carrier greater than or equal to a first threshold; a result calculated based on a measurement result of all carriers corresponding to the first cell. That is, the carrier measurement result included in the first measurement result can include one or more of the following: a result calculated based on a measurement result of at least one currently activated / working carrier; a result calculated based on a measurement result of at least one carrier indicated by the network device; a result calculated based on a measurement result of at least one carrier greater than or equal to a first threshold; a result calculated based on a measurement result of all carriers corresponding to the first cell.

[0072] Optionally, the first threshold can satisfy one or more of the following: specified by a protocol, configured by the network device.

[0073] Optionally, N can satisfy one or more of the following: specified by a protocol, configured by the network device.

[0074] For example, the network device can send first configuration information. Wherein, the first configuration information can be used to indicate the first threshold and / or N.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second result can be calculated in a manner comprising calculating an average value. That is, the second result can be obtained based on the average value of the measurement results of the at least one carrier corresponding to the first cell.

[0076] In some embodiments, in the L3 cell switching or L3 CHO process, the first measurement result can comprise the first result and / or the second result. For example, the terminal device can determine whether one or more of the following conditions is met: the first result and / or the second result corresponding to the serving cell, the first result and / or the second result corresponding to the neighbor cell, the first result and / or the second result corresponding to the candidate cell. In the case where the first condition is met, the terminal device can perform measurement reporting or switching execution. Wherein, the first condition can be indicated by the network device through event configuration.

[0077] The first condition can comprise the following events: serving becomes better than absolute threshold (this event can be referred to as A1 event); serving becomes worse than absolute threshold (this event can be referred to as A2 event); neighbour / candidate becomes amount of offset better than PCell / PSCell (this event can be referred to as A3 event); neighbour / candidate becomes better than absolute threshold (this event can be referred to as A4 event); serving becomes worse than absolute threshold1 AND Neighbour / candidate becomes better than another absolute threshold2 (this event can be referred to as A5 event). Wherein, whether a cell is better or worse can be obtained by comparing the corresponding first result and / or second result. In the case where any of the above events is met, the first condition can be met, and the terminal device can report the corresponding first measurement result.

[0078] The terminal device can determine whether to trigger measurement reporting or execution of conditional handover based on the event configuration and the channel quality result of the serving cell and / or the candidate cell.

[0079] The first measurement result is described below taking the serving cell, the neighbor cell or the candidate cell as an example.

[0080] For example, in the case where the first cell is the serving cell, the first measurement result can be determined based on one or more of the following manners: measurement result of the carrier with the best channel quality; average of measurement results of N carriers with the best channel quality; measurement result of the currently activated / working carrier; average of measurement results of the currently activated / working carrier; measurement result of the primary carrier or the default carrier; measurement result of the carrier indicated by the network; average of measurement results of at least one carrier indicated by the network; average of measurement results of at least one carrier satisfying a threshold value; measurement result of any one carrier; average of all carrier measurement results.

[0081] For another example, in the case where the first cell is the neighbor cell / candidate cell, the first measurement result can be determined based on the following manners: measurement result of the carrier with the best channel quality; average of measurement results of N carriers with the best channel quality; measurement result of the primary carrier or the default carrier; measurement result of the carrier indicated by the network; average of measurement results of at least one carrier indicated by the network; average of measurement results of at least one carrier satisfying a threshold value; measurement result of any one carrier; average of all carrier measurement results. Wherein, the carrier can be at least one carrier in the candidate cell configuration, or the carrier can be the carrier configuration in the measurement configuration.

[0082] It should be noted that the measurement result of the carrier in the present application can include the third result and / or the fourth result described below. That is, the measurement result of the carrier can be determined by the determination method of the third result and / or the fourth result described below. In addition, the measurement result of the carrier can be the result after L3 filtering.

[0083] It should be noted that the measurement result of the beam in the present application can include the fifth result and / or the sixth result described below. That is, the measurement result of the beam can be determined by the determination method of the fifth result and / or the sixth result described below.

[0084] In some embodiments, the first measurement result can correspond to at least one second carrier. The second carrier can be a carrier associated with at least one of a serving cell, a candidate cell, a target cell of the terminal device. Correspondingly, the carrier can also be referred to as a serving carrier, a candidate carrier or a target carrier. The second carrier can correspond to the first beam set, in which case the first measurement result can include one or more of the following: a third result, a fourth result. The third result and the fourth result are described below
