Description

Interference measurement method and device

[0001] The present application claims priority from the Chinese Patent Application No. 202411398126.9 filed on September 30, 2024, and entitled "Interference measurement method and device", the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Embodiments of the present application relate to the field of wireless communication, in particular to an interference measurement method and device. BACKGROUND

[0003] In the fifth generation (5th generation, 5G) mobile communication system, new radio (NR) is deployed in the medium-high frequency band, and high-speed data transmission and low latency are achieved by using a large bandwidth. In the time division duplexing (time division duplexing, TDD) system, the downlink (downlink, DL) usually occupies the main time domain resources. This causes an uneven distribution of DL and uplink (uplink, UL). Compared with the frequency division duplexing (frequency division duplexing, FDD) system, the TDD system has poor UL coverage and large latency.

[0004] To avoid the above problems, a subband full duplex (subband full duplex, SBFD) scheme is proposed, which divides a carrier into multiple subbands, and the link direction of different subbands can be different. Among them, the uplink subband is used for uplink communication, and the downlink subband is used for downlink communication. Of course, in the SBFD scheme, part of the carrier is used for uplink communication or downlink communication only, that is, similar to TDD. However, in SBFD, the signal power of different subbands may leak to adjacent subbands, resulting in interference between DL and UL, which can be referred to as cross link interference (cross link interference, CLI).

[0005] In actual communication process, a terminal may receive interference from surrounding terminals. For a terminal that may support beam communication, the terminal may send multiple sounding reference signal (sounding reference signal, SRS) resources. Then, how to configure measurement resources for the terminal from multiple interference devices for the terminal to measure CLI is still inconclusive. SUMMARY

[0006] The application provides an interference measurement method and device, so that a terminal can more flexibly measure CLI generated by different interference terminals, and improve the accuracy and precision of interference measurement.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0008] In a first aspect, an interference measurement method is provided. The method is applied to a terminal or a component (such as a processor, a circuit, a chip, or a chip system) of the terminal, and can also be a logic module or software capable of realizing all or part of the terminal functions. The method can include receiving first information. For example, the first information can be used to indicate X measurement reports and P CLI measurement resources. The X measurement reports can be measurement reports for CLI measurement. One of the X measurement reports can be associated with N CLI measurement resource sets. Each CLI measurement resource set can include at least one CLI measurement resource. X, P, and N are positive integers. Second information is sent. For example, the second information can be used to indicate a first CLI measurement result. The first CLI measurement result can include a CLI measurement result corresponding to a target measurement report. The X measurement reports can include the target measurement report.

[0009] The application configures multiple measurement reports and multiple CLI measurement resources for a terminal, and each measurement report is associated with one or more CLI measurement resource sets. This allows the terminal to more flexibly measure CLI generated by different interference terminals, and improves the accuracy and precision of interference measurement.

[0010] In a possible design, N can be equal to 1. One measurement report can be associated with Y CLI measurement resources. One CLI measurement resource set can include M CLI measurement resources. In this case, M is equal to Y.

[0011] In a possible design, N can be a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. One measurement report can be associated with Y CLI measurement resources. One CLI measurement resource set can include M CLI measurement resources. Y is a positive integer, and M is a positive integer less than Y.

[0012] The application can associate multiple CLI measurement resource sets with one measurement report, implement the configuration of CLI measurement resources corresponding to different interference terminals, and allow the terminal to more flexibly measure CLI generated by different interference terminals, and improve the accuracy and precision of interference measurement.

[0013] In a possible design, the maximum value of P is at least one of 16, 32, 64, and 128.

[0014] In a possible design, the maximum value of N is at least one of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.

[0015] In a possible design, a maximum value of Y is at least one of 16, 32, 64.

[0016] In a possible design, a maximum value of M is at least one of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64.

[0017] The application provides a maximum value range of a plurality of parameters, so that appropriate values can be selected in different communication scenarios, and CLI can be measured more flexibly.

[0018] In a possible design, the P CLI measurement resources can include at least one CLI received signal strength indication (RSSI) resource. The CLI-RSSI resource can satisfy at least one of the following: the CLI-RSSI resource occupies at least one time domain symbol; or, the CLI-RSSI resource is quasi co-located with a first signal. For example, the first signal can be a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS), a synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel block (SSB), or a demodulation reference signal (DMRS).

[0019] In a possible design, the P CLI measurement resources can include a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource. The SRS resource can satisfy at least one of the following: the SRS resource occupies one time domain symbol; the SRS resource is quasi co-located with a second signal; and the SRS resource is a single-port SRS resource. For example, the second signal can be a CSI-RS, an SSB, or a DMRS.

[0020] The embodiments of the application can measure CLI through a plurality of different CLI measurement resources, and improve the universality of the system.

[0021] In a possible design, the CLI measurement result corresponding to the target measurement report can include Z second CLI measurement results corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources. For example, Z is a positive integer less than or equal to a total number of CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report.

[0022] The embodiments of the application can select the CLI measurement result corresponding to part of the CLI measurement resources, and further reduce resource overhead of the second information.

[0023] In a possible design, the second information can include Z first parameters and / or Z second parameters corresponding to the reporting of the target measurement. For example, the first parameter can be used to indicate the second CLI measurement result, and the second parameter can be used to indicate the identity of the CLI measurement resource corresponding to the second CLI measurement result.

[0024] In a possible design, the second information can include 1 first parameter, Z-1 third parameters and / or Z second parameters corresponding to the reporting of the target measurement. For example, the third parameter can be used to indicate the change amount related to the second CLI measurement result indicated by the first parameter.

[0025] The present application provides multiple reporting manners of the second information, so as to select a more suitable reporting manner in different scenarios and improve the system universality.

[0026] In a possible design, in the case where the first CLI measurement resource is a CLI-RSSI resource, the value range of the second CLI measurement result can be [-140, -44] decibels-milliwatts (dBm). The step of the second CLI measurement result can be 1 decibel (dB). The first parameter can occupy 7 bits. Alternatively, in the case where the first CLI measurement resource is an SRS resource, the value range of the second CLI measurement result can be [-100, -25] dBm. The step of the second CLI measurement result can be 1 dB. The first parameter can occupy 7 bits. For example, the first CLI measurement resource can be any one of the Z CLI measurement resources.

[0027] The present application provides a specific reporting manner of the first parameter, so that the terminal accurately reports the first parameter based on the manner.

[0028] In a possible design, in the case where the first CLI measurement resource is a CLI-RSSI resource, the second parameter used to indicate the first CLI measurement resource can occupy For example, In the case where the first CLI measurement resource is an SRS resource, the second parameter used to indicate the first CLI measurement resource can occupy For example, In the case where the first CLI measurement resource is an SRS resource, the second parameter used to indicate the first CLI measurement resource can occupy

[0029] The application provides a specific reporting manner of the second parameter, so that the terminal accurately reports the second parameter based on the manner. Resource waste or an unindicatable situation caused by too many or too few bits indicating the second parameter can be avoided.

[0030] In a possible design, the third parameter occupies 4 bits, and the step of the variation is 2 dB.

[0031] The application provides a specific reporting manner of the third parameter, so that the terminal accurately reports the third parameter based on the manner. Resource waste or an unindicatable situation caused by too many or too few bits indicating the third parameter can be avoided.

[0032] In a possible design, the Z second CLI measurement results can be Z CLI measurement results with the largest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement.

[0033] The application can report the Z CLI measurement results with the largest values, reduces resource overhead of the second information, and enables the network device to obtain information about the Z CLI measurement resources with the largest CLI, which is beneficial to the network device to implement CLI management technology. For example, the terminal corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources is avoided from being scheduled to perform downlink transmission, thereby being beneficial to avoiding or suppressing the CLI suffered by the terminal.

[0034] In a possible design, the Z second CLI measurement results can be Z CLI measurement results with the smallest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement.

[0035] The application can report the Z CLI measurement results with the smallest values, reduces resource overhead of the second information, and enables the network device to obtain information about the Z CLI measurement resources with the smallest CLI, which is beneficial to the network device to implement CLI management technology. For example, the terminal corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources can be scheduled to perform downlink transmission, and the terminal corresponding to other CLI measurement resources is not scheduled to perform downlink transmission, thereby being beneficial to avoiding or suppressing the CLI suffered by the terminal.

[0036] In a possible design, Z1 of the Z second CLI measurement results can be the Z1 CLI measurement results with the largest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement. Z2 of the Z second CLI measurement results can be the Z2 CLI measurement results with the smallest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement. Z1 and Z2 are both positive integers smaller than Z. The sum of Z1 and Z2 is smaller than or equal to Z. For example, Z1 = Z2 = Z / 2. The network device can indicate (or configure) the values of Z1 and / or Z2 through signaling.

[0037] The application can report the Z1 CLI measurement results with the largest values and the Z2 CLI measurement results with the smallest values, reduces resource overhead of the second information, and enables the network device to comprehensively obtain CLI information, which is beneficial to implementation of the CLI management technology by the network device. For example, the Z2 CLI measurement resources can be scheduled for downlink transmission, and the Z1 CLI measurement resources can not be scheduled for downlink transmission, which is beneficial to avoiding or suppressing CLI experienced by the terminal.

[0038] In a possible design, the terminal can be configured or indicated to use one of the above three possible reporting manners through signaling. For example, an indication information can be carried in configuration information of any measurement reporting, and the indication information is used to indicate a reporting manner (i.e., any one of the above three possible reporting manners) corresponding to the associated measurement reporting. The terminal determines the reporting manner corresponding to the measurement reporting according to the indication information carried in the configuration information of the measurement reporting.

[0039] In a possible design, the value of Z can include 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.

[0040] The application provides multiple values of Z, so as to select a proper value in different communication scenarios, and more flexibly save resource overhead of the second information.

[0041] In a possible design, the value of Z can be indicated (or configured) through signaling.

[0042] In the application, the network device can flexibly configure or indicate the terminal to report the number of measurement results, so as to guarantee flexibility of scheduling by the network device and reduce resource overhead of CLI measurement reporting.

[0043] In a possible design, the first CLI measurement result can include one or more groups of CLI measurement results. For example, each group of CLI measurement results can include N CLI measurement results corresponding to N CLI measurement resources respectively. The N CLI measurement resources corresponding to each group of CLI measurement results can belong to N CLI measurement resource sets respectively. In some examples, for a CLI measurement resource in the N CLI measurement resources corresponding to a group of CLI measurement results, it can be the CLI measurement resource corresponding to the CLI measurement result with the minimum or maximum value among the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the CLI measurement resource set to which the CLI measurement resource belongs. In other examples, for some of the groups of CLI measurement results, the CLI measurement result with the maximum value can be reported; for another some of the groups of CLI measurement results, the CLI measurement result with the minimum value can be reported.

[0044] The application can also report the CLI measurement result based on grouping, to achieve flexible reporting of the CLI measurement result.

[0045] In a possible design, for the first measurement reporting, in the case of conflict between measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource and other uplink transmission, the priority of the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource is higher than the priority of the other uplink resource. The second CLI measurement resource can be a CLI measurement resource associated with the first measurement reporting, and the first measurement reporting can be any one of the X measurement reports.

[0046] The application can define that the priority of the CLI measurement is higher than the priority of the other uplink transmission, so as to avoid the case that the second CLI measurement resource conflicts with the other uplink transmission and cannot cause measurement failure.

[0047] In a possible design, for the first measurement reporting, in the case of conflict between measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource and other uplink transmission, at least one of the following can be met: the priority of the semi-statically configured downlink reception is lower than the priority of the dynamically configured other uplink transmission; the priority of the dynamically configured downlink reception is higher than the priority of the semi-statically configured other uplink transmission; it is not expected that the downlink reception and the other uplink transmission are both semi-statically configured; it is not expected that the downlink reception and the other uplink transmission are both dynamically configured; the priority of the semi-statically configured downlink reception is lower than the priority of the random access channel occasion (RO) resource; the priority of the semi-statically configured downlink reception is higher than the priority of the RO resource.

[0048] The present application provides various processing methods to effectively solve resource conflicts in various possible conflict scenarios.

[0049] In a possible design, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be semi-statically configured downlink reception. For example, the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource can be periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting triggered based on a media access control control element (MAC CE), or aperiodic reporting triggered based on downlink control information (DCI).

[0050] The present application provides a manner of determining semi-statically configured downlink reception, so that the terminal can more reasonably handle conflicts between the CLI measurement resource and other uplink transmissions.

[0051] In a possible design, the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource can be periodic reporting or semi-persistent reporting triggered based on a MAC CE.

For example, for the first measurement report, in a case where measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource conflicts with other uplink transmission, at least one of the following can be met: the priority of the semi-statically configured downlink reception is lower than the priority of the dynamically configured other uplink transmission; the priority of the dynamically configured downlink reception is higher than the priority of the semi-statically configured other uplink transmission; neither the downlink reception nor the other uplink transmission is semi-statically configured; neither the downlink reception nor the other uplink transmission is dynamically configured; the priority of the semi-statically configured downlink reception is lower than the priority of the RO resource; or the priority of the semi-statically configured downlink reception is higher than the priority of the RO resource.

[0157] In a possible design, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be semi-statically configured downlink reception. For example, the trigger type of the measurement reporting associated with the second CLI measurement resource can be periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting triggered based on MAC CE, or non-periodic reporting triggered based on DCI.

[0158] In a possible design, the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource can be periodic reporting or semi-persistent reporting triggered based on a MAC CE. Then, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be semi-statically configured downlink reception.

[0159] In a possible design, the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource can be aperiodic reporting triggered based on a DCI or semi-persistent reporting triggered based on a DCI. Then, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be dynamically configured downlink reception.

[0185] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an architecture of a communication system 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the communication system 1000 includes a radio access network (RAN) 100, wherein the RAN 100 includes at least one RAN node (e.g., 110a and 110b in FIG. 1, collectively referred to as 110) and can further include at least one terminal (e.g., 120a-120j in FIG. 1, collectively referred to as 120). The RAN 100 can further include other RAN nodes, such as wireless relay devices and / or wireless backhaul devices (not shown in FIG. 1). The terminals 120 are wirelessly connected to the RAN nodes 110. Terminals and terminals and RAN nodes and RAN nodes can be connected to each other by wire or wirelessly. The communication system 1000 can further include a core network 200. The RAN nodes 110 are connected to the core network 200 wirelessly or by wire. The core network devices in the core network 200 and the RAN nodes 110 in the RAN 100 can be independent and different physical devices, or can be the same physical device integrated with the logical functions of the core network devices and the logical functions of the RAN nodes. The communication system 1000 can further include the Internet 300.

[0186] The RAN 100 can be an evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) system, a new radio (NR) system, a future communication network, and a future wireless access system defined in the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP). The RAN 100 can further include two or more different wireless access systems described above. The RAN 100 can also be an open RAN (O-RAN).

[0187] The RAN node, also referred to as a radio access network device, a RAN entity, or an access node, is used to help terminals access the communication system wirelessly. In an application scenario, the RAN node can be a base station (BS), an evolved NodeB (eNodeB / eNB), a transmission reception point (TRP), a future base station (generation NodeB, gNB) in a 5th generation (5G) mobile communication system, a future base station in a future communication network, or a base station in a future mobile communication system. The RAN node can be a macro base station (e.g., 110a in FIG. 1), a micro base station or an indoor station (e.g., 110b in FIG. 1), a relay node, or a master node.

[0188] In another application scenario, a terminal can be helped to implement wireless access through cooperation of multiple RAN nodes, and different RAN nodes implement part of functions of a base station respectively. For example, a RAN node can be a central unit (CU), a distributed unit (DU), or a radio unit (RU). The RU can also be referred to as a radio frequency unit. Here, the CU completes functions of a radio resource control protocol and a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) of the base station, and can also complete a function of a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP); the DU completes functions of a radio link control layer and a medium access control (MAC) layer of the base station, and can also complete a function of part of a physical layer or all of the physical layer. For specific descriptions of the above protocol layers, reference can be made to related technical specifications of the 3GPP. The RU can be used to implement a function of transceiving a radio frequency signal. The CU and the DU can be two independent RAN nodes, or can be integrated in a same RAN node, for example, integrated in a baseband unit (BBU). The RU can be included in a radio frequency device, for example, included in a remote radio unit (RRU) or an active antenna unit (AAU). The CU can be further divided into two types of RAN nodes of a CU-control plane and a CU-user plane.

[0189] In different systems, a RAN node can have different names. For example, in an open radio access network (O-RAN) system, a CU can be referred to as an open CU (O-CU), a DU can be referred to as an open DU (O-DU), and a RU can be referred to as an open RU (O-RU). The RAN node in the embodiments of the present application can be implemented through a software module, a hardware module, or a combination of a software module and a hardware module. For example, the RAN node can be a server loaded with a corresponding software module. The embodiments of the present application do not limit specific technologies and specific device forms adopted by the RAN node. For ease of description, a base station is taken as an example of the RAN node in the following description.

[0190] A terminal is a device with wireless transceiving function, which can send signals to a base station or receive signals from a base station. A terminal can also be referred to as a terminal device, user equipment (UE), mobile station, mobile terminal, etc. A terminal can be widely applied to various scenarios, such as device-to-device (D2D), vehicle to everything (V2X) communication, machine-type communication (MTC), internet of things (IoT), virtual reality, augmented reality, industrial control, automatic driving, remote medical treatment, smart power grid, smart furniture, smart office, smart wear, smart transportation, smart city, etc. A terminal can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, computer with wireless transceiving function, wearable device, vehicle, airplane, ship, robot, mechanical arm, smart home device, etc. Embodiments of the present application do not limit specific technologies and specific device forms adopted by a terminal.

[0191] In some examples, the core network 200 can include an access and mobility management function (AMF) entity, a session management function (SMF) entity, a user plane function (UPF) entity, a sensing service control function (SSCF), a sensing data processing function (SDPF), a unified data management (UDM), etc.

[0192] A base station and a terminal can be fixed in position or movable. A base station and a terminal can be deployed on land, including indoors or outdoors, handheld or vehicle-mounted; can also be deployed on water surface; can also be deployed on an airplane, balloon and artificial satellite. Embodiments of the present application do not limit application scenarios of a base station and a terminal.

[0193] The roles of the base station and the terminal can be relative. For example, the helicopter or the drone 120i in FIG. 1 can be configured as a mobile base station, and for the terminal 120j that accesses the wireless access network 100 through the 120i, the terminal 120i is a base station; but for the base station 110a, the 120i is a terminal, that is, the 110a and the 120i communicate through a wireless air interface protocol. Of course, the 110a and the 120i can also communicate through a base station-to-base station interface protocol, and in this case, the 120i is also a base station relative to the 110a. Therefore, the base station and the terminal can be collectively referred to as a communication device, and the 110a and the 110b in FIG. 1 can be referred to as a communication device with a base station function, and the 120a-120j in FIG. 1 can be referred to as a communication device with a terminal function.

[0194] The base station and the terminal, the base station and the base station, and the terminal and the terminal can communicate through a licensed frequency spectrum, or through an unlicensed frequency spectrum, or through both the licensed frequency spectrum and the unlicensed frequency spectrum; can communicate through a frequency spectrum below 6 gigahertz (GHz), or through a frequency spectrum above 6 GHz, or through both the frequency spectrum below 6 GHz and the frequency spectrum above 6 GHz. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the frequency spectrum resources used for wireless communication.

[0195] In the embodiments of the present application, the functions of the base station can also be performed by a module (such as a chip) in the base station, or by a control subsystem containing base station functions. The control subsystem containing base station functions herein can be a control center in the above-mentioned application scenarios such as smart grid, industrial control, intelligent transportation, and smart city. The functions of the terminal can also be performed by a module (such as a chip or a modem) in the terminal, or by a device containing terminal functions.

[0196] In a wireless communication system, communication devices can communicate with each other through air interface resources. The communication devices can include network devices and terminal devices, and the network devices can also be referred to as base station devices, i.e., the wireless access network devices mentioned above. The air interface resources can include at least one of time domain resources, frequency domain resources, code resources, and space resources. The communication devices can also be referred to as communication devices.

[0197] The scheme provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to wireless communication between communication devices. The wireless communication can include wireless communication between network devices and terminals, wireless communication between network devices and network devices, and wireless communication between terminals and terminals. In the embodiments of the present application, the term "wireless communication" can also be referred to as "communication", and the term "communication" can also be described as "data transmission", "information transmission", or "transmission".

[0198] For the current time division duplexing (TDD) scenario, the distribution of downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) in the TDD scenario shown in FIG. 2 is shown. It can be seen that the UL resource is much less than the DL resource, and the DL resource and the UL resource are allocated unbalancedly. Therefore, a subband full duplex (SBFD) scheme is introduced in the related art.

[0199] In the SBFD scheme, one carrier can be divided into multiple subbands. Referring to one SBFD resource allocation manner shown in FIG. 3, one carrier is divided into 3 subbands, and the middle subband is configured as an uplink subband, and the remaining two subbands are configured as downlink subbands. Referring to another SBFD resource allocation manner shown in FIG. 4, one carrier is divided into 2 subbands, and one subband is configured as an uplink subband, and the other subband is configured as a downlink subband. Of course, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 are only an exemplary description, and the specific allocation manner of SBFD can be determined according to the actual situation, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited. In the SBFD scheme, the concept of time domain is still retained, that is, the uplink subband and the downlink subband of the above SBFD are configured on some time slots or some symbols, and are not necessarily for all time slots or symbols.

[0200] In the SBFD scheme, the network device can complete transmission and reception on the same time domain resource through different frequency domain resources (that is, different subbands). The available uplink resources are increased on resource allocation, which effectively improves the uplink coverage and reduces the UL delay.

[0201] However, for the SBFD time slots shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the function of the signal transmitted in each subband exists leakage to the adjacent subband, which causes interference between DL and UL, that is, cross link interference (CLI). According to the source of the interference, the CLI can be divided into two categories. Referring to FIG. 4, one type of CLI can be the uplink signal transmitted by terminal 2 to network device 2, which causes interference to the uplink transmission of terminal device 3 in the cell or the downlink reception of terminal device 1 in the adjacent cell. This type of interference can be referred to as UE-to-UE CLI. Among them, the downlink reception can be considered as the terminal receiving the downlink signal. The uplink transmission can be considered as the terminal transmitting the uplink signal. Another type of CLI can be the downlink signal transmitted by network device 1, which causes interference to the uplink signal received by network device 2. This type of interference can be referred to as gNB-to-gNB CLI.

[0202] Currently, it is discussed to introduce layer 1 CLI measurement for terminal and terminal CLI. It is considered that a terminal can measure uplink signals sent by other terminals to determine the CLI caused by the other terminals. The measurement result is reported to a network device, so that the network device performs corresponding operations to avoid or suppress the CLI according to the measurement result reported by the terminal.

[0203] In some examples, the terminal reports the CLI measurement result includes aperiodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting and periodic reporting. For example, the aperiodic reporting can be triggered by downlink control information (DCI) to report on a physical uplink share channel (PUSCH). The semi-persistent reporting can include two types, one is triggered by DCI to report on a PUSCH, and the other is triggered by a multimedia access control layer control element (MAC CE) to report on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The periodic reporting can be semi-statically configured by radio resource control (RRC) signaling to report on a PUCCH.

[0204] Referring to terminal 1 in FIG. 5, there can be more than one terminal that causes CLI to the terminal 1, i.e., terminal 2 and terminal 3. In addition, in the case of introducing the concept of beam, the interfering terminal can send sounding reference signals (SRS) on multiple SRS resources. Therefore, how to configure the terminal with resources that need to be measured for interference becomes a problem to be solved.

[0205] Therefore, the embodiments of the present application provide an interference measurement method. By configuring a terminal with multiple measurement reporting and multiple CLI measurement resources, each measurement reporting is associated with one or more CLI measurement resource sets. The terminal can more flexibly measure the CLI caused by different interfering terminals, and the accuracy and precision of interference measurement are improved.

[0206] The communication method and device are further described below with reference to the drawings. It can be understood that the terminal and the network device are taken as examples of the execution subject of the interaction in the embodiments of the present application, but the present application is not limited to the execution subject of the interaction. The method executed by the terminal in the present application can also be implemented by a module (such as a circuit, a processor, a chip or a chip system, etc.) in the terminal, or a logic node, a logic module or software capable of implementing all or part of the terminal functions. The method executed by the network device in the present application can also be implemented by a module (such as a circuit, a processor, a chip or a chip system, etc.) in the network device, or a logic node, a logic module or software capable of implementing all or part of the network device functions.

[0207] In the embodiments of the present application, the term "wireless communication" can also be referred to as "communication", and the term "communication" can also be described as "data transmission", "information transmission" or "transmission".

[0208] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a wireless access network scenario provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0209] The scenario can be a RAN scenario or an O-RAN scenario, the difference being that, for the O-RAN scenario, the CU is replaced by an O-CU, the DU is replaced by an O-DU, and the RU is replaced by an O-RU. Taking the RAN scenario as an example, the CU and the DU interact through a midhaul link, and the DU and the RU interact through a fronthaul link. In some scenarios, the access network device can also be divided into a baseband unit (BBU) and a remote radio unit (RRU). The BBU can be considered to include the functions of the CU and the DU, and the RRU can be considered to be the RU. The access network device can interact with a core network element through a backhaul link. The access network device interacts with at least one terminal through an air interface.

[0210] In some embodiments, the BBU and the RU can be co-located or can not be co-located, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0211] In some embodiments, the DU and the RU can be co-located or can not be co-located. In some examples, the DU and the RU can cooperate to jointly implement the functions of the PHY layer. One CU can be connected to one or more DUs, and one DU can be connected to one or more RUs.

[0212] In some examples, the CU can include a CU control plane (CP) and a CU user plane (UP). As denoted as CU-CP and CU-UP. Wherein the CU-CP is used to implement the control plane function of the CU, and the CU-UP is used to implement the user plane function of the CU.

[0213] In different systems, the CU (or CU-CP and CU-UP), DU or RU can also have different names, but those skilled in the art can understand their meanings. For example, in the O-RAN system, the CU can also be referred to as O-CU, the DU can also be referred to as O-DU, the CU-CP can also be referred to as O-CU-CP, the CU-UP can also be referred to as O-CU-UP, and the RU can also be referred to as O-RU. The embodiments of the present application do not limit here.

[0214] For more specific implementation of CU, DU, RU and the like, as well as the protocol stack functions performed, please refer to the related technology, and the embodiments of the present application do not repeat here.

[0215] FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of an interference measurement method provided by an embodiment of the present application.

[0216] The interference measurement process can be applied to but not limited to the communication scenarios shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 5, and can be applied to the network architecture shown in FIG. 6. The method can be applied to long term evolution (LTE), LTE frequency division duplex (FDD) system, LTE TDD, 5G system or NR system, subsequent communication systems (such as future communication systems), V2X, etc. Wherein V2X can include vehicle to network (V2N), vehicle to vehicle (V2V), vehicle to infrastructure (V2I), vehicle to pedestrian (V2P), etc., inter-vehicle communication long term evolution technology (LTE-V), Internet of Vehicles, MTC, IoT, inter-machine communication long term evolution technology (LTE-M), machine to machine (M2M), D2D, etc. Wireless communication scenarios.

[0217] Embodiments of the present application are applicable to the SBFD scenario. In some examples, there can or can not be a guard band between the uplink subband and the downlink subband in the SBFD. For the case where there is a guard band, communication can or can not be performed on the guard band, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present application. In some examples, the uplink subband and the downlink subband can or can not partially overlap.

[0218] In some examples, there are two configuration modes for whether a time slot contains SBFD symbols and non-SBFD symbols at the same time. Embodiments of the present application are applicable to the two configuration modes.

[0219] SBFD configuration mode 1: The symbols contained in a time slot are all configured as SBFD symbols or all configured as non-SBFD symbols.

[0220] SBFD configuration mode 2: The symbols contained in a time slot can be configured as SBFD symbols and non-SBFD symbols.

[0221] In some examples, the SBFD symbol can be considered as a symbol configured with SBFD operation. The non-SBFD symbol can be considered as a symbol without SBFD operation. For UL, the non-SBFD symbol can be an uplink symbol or a flexible symbol; for DL, the non-SBFD symbol can be a downlink symbol or a flexible symbol. The flexible symbol is a symbol that can be flexibly configured as an uplink symbol or a downlink symbol.

[0222] The method can include the following steps:

[0223] S101, the network device sends first information to the terminal. Correspondingly, the terminal receives the first information from the network device.

[0224] For example, the first information can be used to indicate X measurement reports and P CLI measurement resources. X and P are positive integers. In the embodiments of the present application, the X measurement reports can be measurement reports for CLI measurement. Different measurement reports can correspond to different measurement resources, measurement indexes, and reporting modes. The P CLI measurement resources are the total number of CLI measurement resources associated with the X measurement reports.

[0225] For example, any one of X measurement reports can be associated with Y CLI measurement resources, Y being a positive integer. The Y CLI measurement resources associated with different measurement reports can be different. When X is 1, Y is equal to P. When X is greater than 1, Y is less than P. In this case, P is equal to the sum of Y corresponding to each measurement report. Taking X = 3 as an example, assuming there are 3 measurement reports, such as measurement report 1, measurement report 2 and measurement report 3. Measurement report 1 is associated with 2 CLI measurement resources, that is, the Y corresponding to measurement report 1 is equal to 2; measurement report 2 is associated with 3 CLI measurement resources, that is, the Y corresponding to measurement report 2 is equal to 3; measurement report 3 is associated with 5 CLI measurement resources, that is, the Y corresponding to measurement report 3 is equal to 5. Then P should be 2+3+5 equal to 10.

[0226] For another example, different measurement reports can be used to measure and report different measurement quantities (or reporting quantities). For example, the measurement quantity (or reporting quantity) can include sounding reference signal reference signal received power (SRS-RSRP), cross-link interference received signal strength indicator (CLI-RSSI), etc.

[0227] For another example, the reporting manner can include the periodic reporting, the semi-persistent reporting and the aperiodic reporting mentioned above. This means that the reporting manner corresponding to different measurement reports can be different. For example, measurement report 1 corresponds to periodic reporting, measurement report 2 corresponds to semi-persistent reporting, and measurement report 3 corresponds to aperiodic reporting. In this case, the terminal reports the measurement result based on the reporting manner of each measurement report. In the embodiments of the present application, reporting can be understood as the terminal sending the measurement result or some information to the network device.

[0228] In some examples, for any one of the X measurement reports, there can be associated N sets of CLI measurement resources, N being a positive integer. That is, for a certain measurement report, the Y CLI measurement resources associated with the measurement report can belong to the N sets of CLI measurement resources. For example, the measurement report is associated with one set of CLI measurement resources, and the Y CLI measurement resources associated with the measurement report belong to the one set of CLI measurement resources. For another example, the measurement report is associated with multiple sets of CLI measurement resources, and the Y CLI measurement resources associated with the measurement report belong to the multiple sets of CLI measurement resources. In one possible implementation, different sets of CLI measurement resources can be associated with different interfering terminals. For example, measurement report A is associated with two sets of CLI measurement resources, i.e., a first set of CLI measurement resources and a second set of CLI measurement resources. The first set of CLI measurement resources is associated with interfering terminal 1, and the second set of CLI measurement resources is associated with interfering terminal 2. Of course, the above is only an example description, and the number of sets of CLI measurement resources and the targets associated with the sets of CLI measurement resources can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0229] For any one set of CLI measurement resources, there can be associated (including) at least one CLI measurement resource, such as M CLI measurement resources. M is a positive integer. For example, when one measurement report is associated with one set of CLI measurement resources, M is equal to Y. For another example, when one measurement report is associated with multiple sets of CLI measurement resources (i.e., N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2), M is a positive integer less than Y. In this case, Y is equal to the sum of M corresponding to each set of CLI measurement resources. For example, N = 3, and there are three sets of CLI measurement resources, such as a first set of CLI measurement resources, a second set of CLI measurement resources, and a third set of CLI measurement resources. The first set of CLI measurement resources is associated with 5 CLI measurement resources, i.e., M corresponding to the first set of CLI measurement resources is equal to 5; the second set of CLI measurement resources is associated with 3 CLI measurement resources, i.e., M corresponding to the second set of CLI measurement resources is equal to 3; and the third set of CLI measurement resources is associated with 6 CLI measurement resources, i.e., M corresponding to the third set of CLI measurement resources is equal to 6. Then Y should be equal to 5 + 3 + 6, i.e., 14.

[0230] The embodiments of the present application can achieve configuration of CLI measurement resources corresponding to different interfering terminals by associating multiple sets of CLI measurement resources with one measurement report, so that the terminal can more flexibly measure the CLI generated by different interfering terminals, and improve the accuracy and precision of interference measurement.

[0231] In some embodiments, the maximum value of P can be selected from the following candidate values. The candidate values can include at least one of 16, 32, 64, 128. Of course, the candidate values can also include any other possible values, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. In some examples, the maximum value of P is 64, which means that the X measurement reports indicated by the first information can be associated with at most 64 CLI measurement resources. Of course, the number of associated CLI measurement resources can be determined according to actual conditions, but the number should not exceed the maximum value of P. For example, the maximum value of P can be 128.

[0232] In some examples, the maximum value of N can be selected from the following candidate values. The candidate values can include at least one of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. The candidate values can also include any other possible values, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. In some examples, the maximum value of N is 4, which means that the CLI measurement resource set associated with one measurement report is at most 4. Of course, the number of associated CLI measurement resource sets can be determined according to actual conditions, but the number should not exceed the maximum value of N. For example, the maximum value of N can be 16.

[0233] In some examples, the maximum value of Y can be selected from the following candidate values. The candidate values can include at least one of 16, 32, 64. The candidate values can also include any other possible values, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. In some examples, the maximum value of Y is 32, which means that the CLI measurement resource associated with one measurement report is at most 32. Of course, the number of associated CLI measurement resources can be determined according to actual conditions, but the number should not exceed the maximum value of Y. For example, the maximum value of Y can be 64.

[0234] In some examples, the maximum value of M can be selected from the following candidate values. The candidate values can include at least one of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64. The candidate values can also include any other possible values, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. In some examples, the maximum value of M is 16, which means that the CLI measurement resources included in one CLI measurement resource set are at most 16. Of course, the number of included CLI measurement resources can be determined according to actual conditions, but the number should not exceed the maximum value of M. For example, in the case of one measurement report associated with one CLI measurement resource set, the maximum value of M can be 64, i.e., M is equal to Y. For another example, in the case of one measurement report associated with multiple CLI measurement resource sets, the maximum value of M can be 32.

[0235] The embodiments of the present application provide maximum value ranges of various parameters, so that appropriate values can be selected in different communication scenarios, and CLI can be measured more flexibly.

[0236] In some embodiments, before S101, the terminal can also report its capability information to the network device. For example, the capability information can include one or more of the following capabilities supported by the terminal: the total number of CLI measurement resources, the total number of CLI measurement resource sets, the number of CLI measurement resources associated with one measurement report, the number of CLI measurement resource sets associated with one measurement report, etc. In some examples, the CLI measurement resource can be a CLI received signal strength indication (RSSI) resource, or an SRS resource. Then, for CLI-RSSI resources and SRS resources, the terminal can report the above-mentioned capability information supported by itself.

[0237] S102, the terminal sends second information to the network device. Correspondingly, the network device receives the second information from the terminal.

[0238] For example, the second information can be used to indicate the first CLI measurement result. The first CLI measurement result can include the CLI measurement result corresponding to the target measurement report. Considering that the reporting manner corresponding to different measurement reports can be different, it means that for the measurement result reported by the terminal to the network device at a certain time, it can not be reported for all measurement reports. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the measurement report that needs to send the measurement result this time is called the target measurement report. That is, the target measurement report is the measurement report that needs to be reported by the terminal in the second information among X measurement reports. Obviously, the target measurement report can be one target measurement report, or multiple target measurement reports, and the above-mentioned target measurement report belongs to the above-mentioned X measurement reports. Or it can be considered that the X measurement reports include one or more target measurement reports. For each target measurement report, it can be implemented in the manner described in the embodiments of the present application, that is, the embodiments of the present application are exemplarily described with one target measurement report.

[0239] In some examples, the terminal can measure P CLI measurement resources after receiving the first information. For example, the CLI measurement resource can be a CLI-RSSI resource. For example, the P CLI measurement resources can include at least one CLI-RSSI resource.

[0240] For example, the CLI-RSSI resource can occupy at least one time domain symbol. For another example, the CLI-RSSI resource can be quasi co-located (QCLed) with a first signal. The first signal can be a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS), a synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel block (SSB), or a demodulation reference signal (DMRS). For example, the QCL relationship can be QCL type D.

[0241] For another example, the CLI measurement resource can be an SRS resource. For example, the P CLI measurement resources can include at least one SRS resource. For example, the SRS resource can occupy one time domain symbol. For another example, the SRS resource can be QCLed with a second signal. The second signal can be a CSI-RS, an SSB, or a DMRS. The SRS resource can be QCLed with the second signal in a manner similar to the aforementioned QCL of the CLI-RSSI resource with the first signal, and the details are not repeated herein. For another example, the SRS resource is a single-port SRS resource, or the SRS resource is single-port. For example, the SRS transmitted based on the SRS resource is transmitted based on a single port. For example, the QCL relationship can be QCL type D.

[0242] In some embodiments, the first signal or the second signal that is quasi co-located with the CLI measurement resource can be configured by the network device through signaling. For example, the network device can carry QCL information of the CLI measurement resource in the first information or other information, where the QCL information indicates a signal, e.g., the first signal, that is QCLed with the CLI-RSSI resource; or the QCL information indicates a signal, e.g., the second signal, that is QCLed with the SRS resource.

[0243] In some embodiments, the QCL information of the CLI measurement resource is the same as the QCL information of the most recently received PDCCH, i.e., the terminal takes the QCL information of the most recently received PDCCH as the QCL information of the CLI measurement resource. In other words, the CLI measurement resource and the signal QCLed with the most recent PDCCH reception are quasi co-located. In other words, the terminal uses the spatial filter used for receiving the most recent PDCCH for CLI measurement on the CLI measurement resource.

[0244] In some embodiments, if the network device configures QCL information of the CLI measurement resource through signaling, the terminal can perform CLI measurement on the CLI measurement resource according to the configured QCL information. For the case where the network device does not configure QCL information of the CLI measurement resource through signaling, the terminal can perform CLI measurement on the CLI measurement resource according to QCL information of the latest PDCCH reception.

[0245] It can be understood that there is no necessary connection between the first signal and the second signal, that is, the first signal and the second signal can be the same signal or different signals, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.

[0246] In combination with the aforementioned CLI measurement resource set, if the CLI measurement resource is a CLI-RSSI resource, the CLI measurement resource set can be a CLI-RSSI resource set. For another example, if the CLI measurement resource is an SRS resource, the CLI measurement resource set can be an SRS resource set.

[0247] It can be understood that for the scenario of the CLI-RSSI resource, the terminal can not depend on the SRS, and the terminal can perform CLI measurement based on other uplink transmissions such as PUSCH, PUCCH, and the like.

[0248] The embodiments of the present application can measure the CLI through a plurality of different CLI measurement resources, thereby improving the universality of the system.

[0249] In some embodiments, the terminal can perform measurement according to the CLI-RSSI resource or the SRS resource mentioned in the above embodiments to obtain a CLI measurement result. The terminal carries the CLI measurement result through the second information and reports the second information to the network device. However, considering the performance of the terminal, or factors such as the resource overhead of the report, the terminal can report part of the CLI measurement result. For the Y CLI measurement resources associated with each measurement report, one way is that the terminal selects part of the CLI measurement results corresponding to the CLI measurement resources after performing measurement on each measurement resource. Another way is that the terminal can directly select part of the CLI measurement resources in the Y CLI measurement resources to perform measurement, and report the CLI measurement results obtained by measurement. For example, for the target measurement report included in the second information, the CLI measurement result corresponding to the target measurement report can include Z CLI measurement results corresponding to Z CLI measurement resources respectively. Wherein, Z is a positive integer less than or equal to the total number of CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report. In the embodiments of the present application, the Z CLI measurement results corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources respectively can be referred to as second CLI measurement results, in order to distinguish from the first CLI measurement result indicated by the second information. In other words, it can be considered that the CLI measurement result corresponding to each target measurement report is collectively referred to as the first CLI measurement result, that is, the first CLI measurement result is composed of multiple second CLI measurement results.

[0250] In some examples, for the case that X is 1, there is Z equal to P. In this case, the 1 measurement report is the target measurement report. And the second information reports the CLI measurement results corresponding to all the CLI measurement resources. In other cases, Z should be less than P. For other cases other than the above cases, Z can be a positive integer less than or equal to Y. It can be understood that the target measurement report also belongs to the X measurement reports, so the CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report are also Y CLI measurement resources, so the above Z CLI measurement resources should be less than or equal to the Y CLI measurement resources.

[0251] The embodiments of the present application can select to report the CLI measurement results corresponding to part of the CLI measurement resources, thereby reducing the resource overhead of the second information.

[0252] In some embodiments, for the target measurement report, the Z second CLI measurement results corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report can be the Z largest CLI measurement results in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report. That is, the Z second CLI measurement results can be the Z largest CLI measurement results in the Y CLI measurement results corresponding to the Y CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report.

[0253] For example, the terminal measures Y CLI measurement resources in the target measurement report respectively, and obtains Y second CLI measurement results. The terminal selects Z CLI measurement results with the largest values in the Y second CLI measurement results to report. Or the terminal arranges the Y second CLI measurement results in order of value, and selects the first Z CLI measurement results with the largest values to report.

[0254] For another example, for the target measurement report, the Z second CLI measurement results can be Z CLI measurement results with the smallest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report. Similar to the foregoing example, the difference is that the Z CLI measurement results are replaced by the Z CLI measurement results with the smallest values from the Z CLI measurement results with the largest values. Details are not described herein again.

[0255] In some examples, the network device can indicate the terminal to report the Z CLI measurement results with the largest values or the Z CLI measurement results with the smallest values. Or the terminal can determine based on its own implementation or based on a predefined rule. Details are not limited herein.

[0256] The application can select the Z CLI measurement results with the largest values to report, reduce the resource overhead of the second information, and enable the network device to obtain the information of the Z CLI measurement resources with the largest CLI, which is beneficial to the network device to implement the CLI management technology. For example, the terminal corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources is avoided to be scheduled to perform the downlink transmission, thereby being beneficial to avoid or suppress the CLI suffered by the terminal. Or the Z CLI measurement results with the smallest values can be selected to report, the resource overhead of the second information is reduced, and the network device can obtain the information of the Z CLI measurement resources with the smallest CLI, which is beneficial to the network device to implement the CLI management technology. For example, the terminal corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources can be scheduled to perform the downlink transmission, and the terminal corresponding to other CLI measurement resources is not scheduled to perform the downlink transmission, thereby being beneficial to avoid or suppress the CLI suffered by the terminal.

[0257] In other examples, the Z CLI measurement results can also be any Z CLI measurement resources selected from the Y second CLI measurement results, and the specific selection principle can be determined according to actual conditions, and embodiments of the present application are not limited. For example, Z1 of the Z second CLI measurement results can be Z1 CLI measurement results with the largest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report. Z2 of the Z second CLI measurement results can be Z2 CLI measurement results with the smallest values in the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report. Wherein, Z1 and Z2 are positive integers less than Z. The sum of Z1 and Z2 is less than or equal to Z. For example, Z1 = Z2 = Z / 2. For example, the network device can indicate (or configure) the values of Z1 and / or Z2 through signaling.

[0258] Embodiments of the present application can also simultaneously select the largest Z1 CLI measurement results and the smallest Z2 CLI measurement results for reporting, thereby reducing the resource overhead of the second information, and enabling the network device to more comprehensively obtain CLI information, which is conducive to the network device to implement CLI management technology. For example, the Z2 CLI measurement resources corresponding to the terminals can be scheduled for downlink transmission, and the Z1 CLI measurement resources corresponding to the terminals can not be scheduled for downlink transmission, thereby facilitating the avoidance or suppression of CLI received by the terminal.

[0259] In some examples, the network device can configure or indicate the terminal to use one of the above three possible reporting modes. For example, the network device can indicate the terminal to select the largest Z CLI measurement results, the smallest Z CLI measurement results, or a part of the largest CLI measurement results and a part of the smallest CLI measurement results. For example, the network device can carry an indication information in the configuration information of the arbitrary measurement report, and the indication information is used to indicate the reporting mode corresponding to the associated measurement report (i.e. any one of the above three possible reporting modes). The terminal determines the reporting mode corresponding to the measurement report according to the indication information carried in the configuration information of the measurement report.

[0260] In some examples, the value of Z can include 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. That is, for the scenario of the terminal reporting part of the CLI measurement results, the terminal can select to report 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 second CLI measurement results based on the target measurement report. Of course, the value range of Z can also be adjusted according to the value of Y, and embodiments of the present application are not limited. There is also a case that Z is equal to Y, which can be considered as reporting all the measurement results corresponding to the CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement report.

[0261] The embodiments of the present application provide multiple values of Z, so as to select appropriate values in different communication scenarios, and more flexibly save resource overhead of the second information.

[0262] In some examples, the network device can indicate (or configure) the value of Z through signaling. For example, the network device can configure the value of Z for the terminal through RRC. In the present application, the network device can flexibly configure or indicate the number of measurement results reported by the terminal, so as to guarantee the flexibility of network device scheduling and reduce resource overhead of CLI measurement reporting.

[0263] In some embodiments, the first CLI measurement result indicated by the second information can include one or more groups of CLI measurement results. For example, each group of CLI measurement results can include N CLI measurement results corresponding to N CLI measurement resources respectively. The N CLI measurement resources can belong to N CLI measurement resource sets respectively. For example, the target measurement reporting is associated with 3 CLI measurement resource sets, the terminal can select 1 CLI measurement resource from each CLI measurement resource set for measurement, and obtain 3 CLI measurement results. The terminal takes the 3 CLI measurement results as a group of CLI measurement results.

[0264] In some examples, for one of the N CLI measurement resources corresponding to a group of CLI measurement results, it can be the CLI measurement resource corresponding to the CLI measurement result with the minimum or maximum value among the CLI measurement results corresponding to the multiple CLI measurement resources associated with the CLI measurement resource set to which the CLI measurement resource belongs. For example, the target measurement reporting is associated with 3 CLI measurement resource sets, the terminal can measure each CLI measurement resource of each CLI measurement resource set, and select the maximum or minimum CLI measurement result. That is, one maximum or minimum CLI measurement result is obtained for each CLI measurement resource set, that is, 3 CLI measurement results are obtained. The terminal takes the 3 CLI measurement results as a group of CLI measurement results.

[0265] In other examples, for part of the groups of CLI measurement results, the maximum value of the CLI measurement result can be reported. For another part of the groups of CLI measurement results, the minimum value of the CLI measurement result can be reported. For example, the first CLI measurement result includes 5 groups of CLI measurement results, of which 2 groups of CLI measurement results are the maximum value of the CLI measurement result, and the other 3 groups of CLI measurement results are the minimum value of the CLI measurement result.

[0266] The specific values in the above examples are only exemplary descriptions, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.

[0267] In some examples, the terminal can select a part of the CLI measurement resource set associated with the target measurement report for reporting. For example, the terminal can select a part of the CLI measurement resource set associated with the target measurement report for reporting, and the part of the CLI measurement resource set associated with the target measurement report can include one or more CLI measurement resources.

[0268] For the first CLI measurement result including multiple groups of CLI measurement results, the multiple groups of CLI measurement results can be for multiple target measurement reports, each target measurement report corresponding to one group of CLI measurement results. Alternatively, the multiple groups of CLI measurement results can be for one target measurement report, the target measurement report corresponding to multiple groups of CLI measurement results. Alternatively, the multiple groups of CLI measurement results can be for multiple target measurement reports, each target measurement report corresponding to multiple groups of CLI measurement results.

[0269] Embodiments of the present application can also report the CLI measurement result based on grouping, to achieve flexible reporting of the CLI measurement result.

[0270] In some embodiments, the second information can indicate the reported CLI measurement result and the CLI measurement resource corresponding to the CLI measurement result. For example, the second information can include Z first parameters and / or Z second parameters corresponding to the target measurement report. In this example, Z can be equal to or less than Y. For example, the first parameter can be used to indicate the second CLI measurement result. That is, the second information includes the second CLI measurement result corresponding to the Z CLI measurement resources. For example, the second parameter can be used to indicate the identity of the CLI measurement resource corresponding to the second CLI measurement result. That is, the second information includes the identity of the CLI measurement resource corresponding to the Z second CLI measurement results.

[0271] In embodiments of the present application, the identity can be an identity (ID) or an index.

[0272] For example, Table 1 shows a reporting form of the second information. For CLI measurement resources of the same type, such as SRS resources or CLI-RSSI resources, one report can be used for reporting.

[0273] Table 1

[0274] The second parameter in the CSI field can indicate an SRS resource index (SRI). The first parameter in the CSI field can indicate a measured RSRP of the SRS. Table 1 shows the case where the CSI measurement resource is an SRS resource. For the case where the CSI measurement resource is a CSI-RSSI resource, the SRI can be replaced by a CSI-RSSI resource index (CSI-RSSI RI), and the RSRP is replaced by a CSI-RSSI. The first parameter and the second parameter in the CSI field in Table 1 are counted from 0. In other examples, the first parameter and the second parameter can be counted from 1. Correspondingly, the last first parameter and the last second parameter are identified as Z.

[0275] For example, the second information includes one first parameter, Z-1 third parameters, and / or Z second parameters corresponding to the target measurement report. In this example, Z can be equal to or less than Y. The third parameter can be used to indicate a change amount related to the second CLI measurement result indicated by the first parameter. The third parameter can be considered as a difference value. That is, the second CLI measurement result indicated by the third parameter can be determined by the third parameter and the first parameter. Table 2 shows the case similar to Table 1.

[0276] Table 2

[0277] Still taking the case where the CSI measurement resource is an SRS resource as an example, the first parameter can be RSRP#0, which directly indicates the RSRP of the first SRS resource. The third parameter can be RSRP#1 difference value, and the RSRP of the second SRS resource can be obtained by the RSRP#1 difference value and the RSRP#0. The reporting manner in Table 2 can also be referred to as differential reporting.

[0278] For example, the first parameter can be the largest second CLI measurement result in the Z second CLI measurement results, or the smallest second CLI measurement result. For example, the first parameter can also be any one of the Z second CLI measurement results, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. It can be understood that the differential reporting can reduce the data amount of the second information, thereby saving the resource overhead caused by the second information.

[0279] The embodiments of the present application provide various reporting manners of the second information, so that a more suitable reporting manner can be selected in different scenarios, and the system universality is improved.

[0280] In some embodiments, any of the Z CLI measurement resources associated with the target measurement reporting can be referred to as a first CLI measurement resource. Then for the above first parameter, if the first CLI measurement resource is a CLI-RSSI resource, the value range of the second CLI measurement result can be [-140, -44] decibel-milliwatts (dBm). The step size of the second CLI measurement result can be 1 decibel (dB). The first parameter can occupy 7 bits. For example, refer to Table 3.

[0281] Table 3

[0282] Based on Table 3, it can be seen that the step size of 1 dB means that different reporting values such as SRS-RSRP_0, SRS-RSRP_1, etc. are distinguished in 1 dB as a change interval. Among them, infinity can mean that the terminal cannot measure due to too strong signal, and therefore cannot detect SRS.

[0283] For another example, if the first CLI measurement resource is an SRS resource, the value range of the second CLI measurement result can be [-100, -25] dBm. The step size of the second CLI measurement result can be 1 dB. The first parameter can occupy 7 bits. For example, refer to Table 4.

[0284] Table 4

[0285] It can be seen that Table 4 is similar to Table 3, and the difference lies in the value range of the actual measurement value.

[0286] Embodiments of the present application provide a specific reporting manner of the first parameter, so that the terminal accurately reports the first parameter based on the manner.

[0287] It can be understood that the above implementation manner for the first parameter can be independent of the above embodiments and can be implemented alone.

[0288] In some embodiments, for the above second parameter, if the first CLI measurement resource is a CLI-RSSI resource, the number of bits occupied by the second parameter for indicating the first CLI measurement resource can be wherein, represents the upward rounding. represents the number of CLI measurement resources included in the CLI measurement resource set to which the first CLI measurement resource belongs. For example, the number of CLI measurement resources included in the CLI measurement resource set to which the CLI-RSSI resource belongs. Assuming that the CLI-RSSI resource 22 indicated by the second parameter corresponds to the CLI measurement resource set 11, and the CLI measurement resource set 11 includes 5 CLI measurement resources, then That is, the value is 5. Accordingly, the number of bits occupied by the second parameter is The 5 CLI measurement resources can all be CLI-RSSI resources, or part of them are CLI-RSSI resources and part of them are SRS resources. The embodiments of the present application do not make any limitation.

[0289] For example, if the first CLI measurement resource is an SRS resource, the number of bits occupied by the second parameter for indicating the first CLI measurement resource can be Wherein, represents the number of CLI measurement resources included in the CLI measurement resource set to which the first CLI measurement resource belongs. For example, the number of CLI measurement resources included in the CLI measurement resource set to which the SRS resource belongs. Similar to the foregoing embodiments, the difference is that the CLI measurement resource indicated by the second parameter is replaced from the CLI-RSSI resource to the SRS resource.

[0290] The embodiments of the present application provide a specific reporting manner of the second parameter, so that the terminal accurately reports the second parameter based on the manner. Resource waste or inability to indicate caused by too many or too few bits indicating the second parameter can be avoided.

[0291] In some embodiments, the third parameter can occupy 4 bits. And the step of the variation is 2dB. That is, the RSRP#1 difference value shown in Table 2 can occupy 4 bits. And according to Table 3 or Table 4, different difference reporting values can be distinguished according to a step of 2dB, and the embodiments of the present application will not be described again.

[0292] It can be understood that the implementation manner of the third parameter described above can be independent of the foregoing embodiments and can be implemented independently.

[0293] The embodiments of the present application provide a specific reporting manner of the third parameter, so that the terminal accurately reports the third parameter based on the manner. Resource waste or inability to indicate caused by too many or too few bits indicating the third parameter can be avoided.

[0294] It can be understood that the parameters included in the second information in the embodiments of the present application can be based on layer 1 measurement and reporting. Compared with layer 3, the second information reported in the embodiments of the present application is data that has not been subjected to high layer filtering processing.

[0295] The embodiments of the present application configure the terminal with multiple measurement reports and multiple CLI measurement resources, and each measurement report is associated with one or more CLI measurement resource sets. This makes the terminal more flexible to measure the CLI generated by different interference terminals, and improves the accuracy and precision of interference measurement.

[0296] In the interference measurement method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the CLI measurement resource configured by the network device can conflict with other uplink transmission. For example, on the same time-frequency resource, the terminal is to perform CLI measurement or to transmit uplink signals. For the terminal, one processing manner is to default that the priority of CLI measurement is the highest. That is, the terminal defaults to perform CLI measurement.

[0297] For example, any one of the X measurement reports can be referred to as a first measurement report. The CLI measurement resource associated with the first measurement report is referred to as a second CLI measurement resource. Then, for the first measurement report, if the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource conflicts with other uplink transmission, the terminal considers that the priority of the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource is higher than the priority of other uplink resources.

[0298] The embodiments of the present application can define that the priority of CLI measurement is higher than the priority of other uplink transmission, thereby avoiding the case that the second CLI measurement resource conflicts with other uplink transmission and cannot cause measurement failure.

[0299] In some embodiments, for the above conflict, another processing manner can process in at least one of the following manners.

[0300] Manner A: The priority of semi-statically configured downlink reception is lower than the priority of dynamically configured other uplink transmission.

[0301] Manner B: The priority of dynamically configured downlink reception is higher than the priority of semi-statically configured other uplink transmission.

[0302] Manner C: It is not expected that the downlink reception and the other uplink transmission are both semi-statically configured.

[0303] Manner D: It is not expected that the downlink reception and the other uplink transmission are both dynamically configured.

[0304] Manner E: The priority of semi-statically configured downlink reception is lower than the priority of random access channel occasion (RO) resource.

[0305] Manner F: The priority of semi-statically configured downlink reception is higher than the priority of RO resource.

[0306] Among them, mode A and mode B can be considered as the terminal preferentially performing the operation of dynamic configuration and not performing the operation of semi-static configuration. Mode C and mode D represent possible error scenarios. The terminal can consider that the uplink and the downlink are both semi-static configuration or dynamic configuration as an error scenario. In other words, the terminal does not expect the scenarios described in mode C and mode D. Mode E and mode F can be considered as the terminal can preferentially perform the RO or preferentially perform the semi-static configured downlink reception in the presence of the RO.

[0307] The embodiments of the present application provide various processing modes to effectively solve resource conflicts in various possible conflict scenarios.

[0308] In some examples, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be considered as the semi-static configured downlink reception described above. In this case, the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource is not considered. That is, the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource is periodic reporting, or semi-persistent reporting based on MAC CE triggering, or aperiodic reporting based on DCI triggering. It is considered that the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource is semi-static configured downlink reception. The terminal determines whether to perform CLI measurement or transmit uplink signals, or considers it as an error scenario and does not perform any operation in combination with mode A to mode F.

[0309] The embodiments of the present application provide a mode for determining semi-static configured downlink reception, so that the terminal can more reasonably handle the conflict between the CLI measurement resource and other uplink transmission.

[0310] In other examples, if the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource is periodic reporting or semi-persistent reporting based on MAC CE triggering, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be considered as semi-static configured downlink reception. The terminal determines whether to perform CLI measurement or transmit uplink signals, or considers it as an error scenario and does not perform any operation in combination with mode A to mode F.

[0311] The embodiments of the present application provide a mode for determining semi-static configured downlink reception, so that the terminal can more reasonably handle the conflict between the CLI measurement resource and other uplink transmission.

[0312] In yet other examples, if the trigger type of the measurement report associated with the second CLI measurement resource is aperiodic reporting based on DCI triggering or semi-persistent reporting based on DCI triggering, the measurement based on the second CLI measurement resource can be considered as dynamic configured downlink reception. The terminal determines whether to perform CLI measurement or transmit uplink signals, or considers it as an error scenario and does not perform any operation in combination with mode A to mode F.

[0313] The embodiments of the present application provide a manner for determining a dynamically configured downlink reception, so that a terminal can more reasonably handle a conflict between a CLI measurement resource and other uplink transmission.

[0314] It can be understood that the manner for resolving the conflict between the CLI measurement resource and the other uplink transmission can be implemented independently of the foregoing embodiments.

[0315] In the interference measurement method provided by the embodiments of the present application, for a terminal, one measurement report needs to occupy some CSI processing units (CPUs) in a period of time, therefore, the time of occupying the CPUs by each measurement report can be defined, so that the terminal and the network device can understand consistently which measurement reports are currently triggered in the case of concurrent triggering of multiple measurement reports.

[0316] In some examples, if the measurement report is a periodic report or a semi-persistent report, the measurement report occupies the CPUs from the T symbols before the first symbol of the earliest one of the one or more CLI measurement resources associated with the measurement report to the last symbol of the PUSCH or PUCCH carrying the measurement report, where T is a positive integer. For example, T is equal to 1. For example, the semi-persistent report involved in this embodiment can be a semi-persistent report other than the initial semi-persistent report on the PUSCH after the PDCCH triggering the measurement report.

[0317] In other examples, if the measurement report is an aperiodic report, the measurement report occupies the CPUs from the first symbol after the PDCCH triggering the measurement report to the last symbol of the PUSCH carrying the measurement report.
