[0100] For ease of understanding, the following explains some aspects of the embodiments of this application:

[0101] 1. Configuration and reporting of L1 / L2 triggered mobility (LTM) measurement.

[0102] The serving base station determines the target cell based on the UE's layer 1 (L1) measurement results and uses the Medium Access Control (MAC) control element (CE) to trigger the UE to hand over the primary cell or primary / secondary cell (or primary cell group or secondary cell group) to the target cell (or target cell group). During LTM, the network side sends a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message in advance, which contains multiple candidate configuration information and multiple LTM Channel State Information (CSI) resource configuration information. Each LTM CSI resource configuration information includes one or more reference signals (RS) resources of one or more LTM candidate cells, that is, one or more candidate configuration identifiers (IDs) and the corresponding Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) index.

[0103] In addition, the UE's serving cell configuration also includes one or more LTM-related CSI reporting configurations, each of which contains the following information:

[0104] LTM CSI reports configuration identifier;

[0105] LTM CSI resource configuration identifier;

[0106] LTM reporting configuration types include periodic reporting / semi-persistent reporting based on the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) and their corresponding reporting resources;

[0107] The LTM report includes the number of candidate cells reported by LTM CSI and the number of RS reported by each cell.

[0108] Each LTM CSI reporting configuration is associated with one LTM CSI resource configuration information. The UE uses the reporting type and reporting resources in this LTM CSI reporting configuration to report the L1 measurement results of N RSs of M candidate cells in the LTM CSI resource configuration information.

[0109] 2. Layer 3 (L3) measurement configuration and reporting configuration

[0110] The network configures UEs with RRC_CONNECTED to perform L3 measurements. The network then configures the UE to report data based on the measurement configuration or to evaluate whether the handover conditions are met based on the measurement results. The measurement configuration information includes the following parameters:

[0111] (1) Measurement object (MO): An MO indicates the time-frequency location of the RS to be measured. The network side (NW) configures multiple cells associated with the MO and their cell-specific bias values. Each MO is associated with a measObjectId.

[0112] (2) Report configurations, each reported configuration includes:

[0113] The reporting criteria are used to trigger the UE to send measurement reports, which can be periodic reports or event-triggered reports;

[0114] RS type, which indicates which RS the UE uses to derive L3 measurement results;

[0115] The reporting format refers to the parameters included in the measurement report by the UE (e.g., Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP)).

[0116] In addition, the reported configuration can also include other relevant information (such as the maximum number of cells reported by the UE and the maximum number of beams reported per cell).

[0117] (3) Measurement identifiers: Each measurement identifier is associated with a measurement target and a reporting configuration. By configuring multiple measurement identifiers, multiple MOs can be associated with one reporting configuration, or multiple reporting configurations can be associated with one MO.

[0118] (4) Parameter configuration defines the filter configuration parameters used for all event evaluation and related reporting as well as periodic measurement reporting.

[0119] (5) Measurement interval: The period during which the UE performs measurements.

[0120] For L3 periodic and event-triggered MOs, when the UE performs L3 measurements on the MO, the UE determines whether to perform the measurement based on SSB or CSI Reference Signal (CSI-RS) according to the RS-type in the reporting configuration associated with the MO. It also determines whether to perform RSRP, Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), or Signal-to-noise and interference ratio (SINR) measurements according to the reporting format in the reporting configuration. If the measurement configuration includes S-MeasureConfig, when the quality of the serving cell is lower than the threshold value associated with S-MeasureConfig, the UE can calculate L3 measurements based on the MO of the associated non-serving cell.

[0121] 3. Event-triggered L1 measurement reporting

[0122] To reduce the excessive measurement reporting caused by periodic or semi-persistent reporting in traditional LTM, event-triggered LTM reporting mechanisms have been introduced. Events used for event-triggered L1 reporting include:

[0123] Event 2: When the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell is <= the second threshold;

[0124] Event 3: When the measurement result of the candidate beam of the candidate cell is greater than or equal to the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell, and the difference is greater than or equal to the first offset value;

[0125] Event 4: When the measurement result of the candidate beam of the candidate cell is >= the third threshold;

[0126] Event 5: When the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell is <= the fourth threshold and the measurement result of the candidate beam of the candidate cell is >= the fifth threshold.

[0127] When the corresponding event meets the conditions, the UE will use MAC CE to report the measurement results and notify the base station of the measurement results of the beam corresponding to the candidate cell, which is used by the base station to decide whether to trigger LTM, etc.

[0128] 4. NR MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU)

[0129] In NR, the MAC header and sub-header are no longer placed at the beginning of the MAC PDU. Instead, the MAC sub-PDU is composed of the MAC sub-header and (MAC Service Data Unit (SDU) or MAC CE).

[0130] As shown in Figures 2a and 2b, Figure 2a is an example of a DL MAC PDU and Figure 2b is an example of a UL MAC PDU.

[0131] Each MAC subPDU has the following possibilities:

[0132] - MAC subheader only (including padding)

[0133] - MAC subheader and MAC SDU;

[0134] - MAC subheader and MAC CE;

[0135] - MAC subheader and padding.

[0136] In addition, for each MAC subheader (taking the Downlink Shared Channel (DL-SCH) and Uplink Shared Channel (UL-SCH) as examples), there are several cases as shown in Figures 2c to 2g. The first two are for variable-size MAC CEs, and the last one is a fixed-size MAC CE for only the subheader MAC CE. Figure 2c shows the R / F / LCID / L MAC subheader with an 8-bit L field; Figure 2d shows the R / F / LCID / L MAC subheader with a 16-bit L field; Figure 2e shows the R / LCID MAC subheader; Figure 2f shows the E / T / R / R / BI MAC subheader; and Figure 2g shows the E / T / RAPID MAC subheader.

[0137] The information reporting method, apparatus and related equipment provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0138] Referring to Figure 3, which is a flowchart of an information reporting method provided in an embodiment of this application, the information reporting method includes the following steps:

[0139] Step 101: The terminal determines at least one of the information carried by the target media access control (MAC) control unit CE and the format of the target MAC CE based on the first information. The target MAC CE is any one of the following: a MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting, a truncated MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting, or a padded event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE.

[0140] Step 102: The terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device;

[0141] The first information includes at least one of the following:

[0142] Size of uplink authorized resources or size of padding bits;

[0143] The amount of transmission resources occupied by the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting;

[0144] The amount of transmission resources occupied by the measurement results of the candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the terminal measurement;

[0145] The maximum number of beams corresponding to the reported beam measurement results configured in the network-side device;

[0146] The number of candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the terminal measurement;

[0147] The measurement event is the event that triggers the measurement reporting of Layer 1.

[0148] The padding bit can be a padding bit in a MAC sub-PDU, through which the MAC sub-PDU can carry the target MAC CE.

[0149] In this embodiment, the measurement results may include RSRP, RSRQ, or SINR, etc., and this embodiment does not limit them.

[0150] In one implementation, the terminal determines at least one of the following: the information carried by the target MAC CE and the format of the target MAC CE, based on the size of the uplink grant resources or the size of the padding bits and the size of the transmission resources occupied by the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting. For example, if the size of the uplink grant resources or the size of the padding bits is sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting, then the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting.

[0151] In one implementation, the terminal determines at least one of the following: the information carried by the target MAC CE and the format of the target MAC CE, based on the size of the uplink grant resource or the size of the padding bits and the size of the transmission resources occupied by the measurement results of the candidate beams satisfying the measurement event measured by the terminal. For example, if the size of the uplink grant resource or the size of the padding bits is sufficient to transmit the measurement results of all candidate beams satisfying the measurement event measured by the terminal, then the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of all candidate beams satisfying the measurement event measured by the terminal.

[0152] In one implementation, the terminal determines at least one of the following: the size of the uplink authorized resources or the size of the padding bits; the size of the transmission resources occupied by the measurement results of the candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event measured by the terminal; the maximum number of beams corresponding to the reported beam measurement results configured by the network-side device; and the number of candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event measured by the terminal.

[0153] In this embodiment, the terminal determines at least one of the following based on the first information: the information carried by the target Media Access Control (MAC) CE and the format of the target MAC CE. The target MAC CE can be any one of the following: a MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting, a truncated MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting, or a padded event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE. The terminal then sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device. Thus, by using the target MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting, the reporting overhead can be reduced compared to periodic or semi-persistent reporting.

[0154] Optionally, the target MAC CE satisfies at least one of the following:

[0155] When the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the target candidate beam, but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the target candidate beam and the beam of the serving cell, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the target candidate beam.

[0156] When the size of the uplink grant resource or padding bits is equal to the resource size of the measurement results of the target candidate beam and the beam of the serving cell, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the target candidate beam and the beam of the serving cell.

[0157] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam) and the measurement results of any one target candidate beam, and / or insufficient to transmit the measurement results of M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event; or, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0158] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam) and the measurement results of any one target candidate beam, and / or, if insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, or the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event;

[0159] When the size of the uplink grant resource or padding bits is equal to the resource size for transmitting the measurement results of M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement events, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement events.

[0160] When the size of the uplink grant resource or padding bits is equal to the resource size of the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam) and the measurement results of M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0161] When the size of the uplink grant resource or padding bits is equal to the resource size for transmitting the measurement results of the N candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam), the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the N candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0162] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of N candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0163] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of N candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam), but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of a portion of the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0164] When the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, as well as the measurement results of NK candidate beams that do not satisfy the measurement event.

[0165] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam), but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of any candidate beam that satisfies the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0166] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam), but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of any candidate beam that satisfies the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0167] If the number of reported candidate beams is less than or equal to K, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE;

[0168] Wherein, the target candidate beam is a candidate beam that satisfies the measurement event, N is the maximum number of beams corresponding to the reported beam measurement results configured by the network-side device, K is the number of candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the terminal measurement, and M is the minimum or maximum value of N and K.

[0169] It should be noted that the above-mentioned measurement result of the serving cell's beam (if the terminal is configured to report the measurement result of the serving cell's beam) means that if the terminal is configured to report the measurement result of the serving cell's beam, the measurement result of the serving cell's beam will be considered when determining the information that uplink grant resources or padding bits can transmit; otherwise, the measurement result of the serving cell's beam may not be considered.

[0170] In this embodiment, sufficient uplink grant resources or padding bits to transmit certain information may mean that the size of the uplink grant resources or padding bits is greater than or equal to the sum of the size of the information and the size of the subheader. For example, sufficient uplink grant resources or padding bits to transmit the measurement results of a target candidate beam may mean that the size of the uplink grant resources or padding bits is greater than or equal to the sum of the size of the size of the measurement results of the target candidate beam and the size of the subheader. Conversely, insufficient uplink grant resources or padding bits to transmit certain information may mean that the size of the uplink grant resources or padding bits is less than the sum of the size of the information and the size of the subheader.

[0171] Furthermore, reporting a specific beam refers to carrying the measurement results of that beam in the target MAC CE. Beam reporting can be achieved by carrying the measurement results of the beam in the target MAC CE, or by carrying the measurement results of the beam and the beam's identifier in the target MAC CE.

[0172] In one implementation, when the number of reported candidate beams is less than or equal to K, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE. Therefore, the final number of reported candidate beams can be used as a criterion to determine whether to use a truncated MAC CE. Furthermore, if the number of reported candidate beams is less than or equal to K, there may be two scenarios: for example, the UL grant is insufficient to transmit measurement results containing all candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event; or, because the network-side device is configured with N, and the number of candidate beams satisfying the measurement event K > N, only a maximum of N candidate beams can be reported, in which case the number of reported candidate beams is less than or equal to K.

[0173] In one implementation, the target MAC CE satisfies at least one of the following:

[0174] When the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting and the serving cell's beam, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0175] When the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of any candidate beam that satisfies the measurement event and the serving cell's beam, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0176] When the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of any candidate beam that satisfies the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0177] When the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, but insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0178] In one implementation, the target MAC CE satisfies at least one of the following:

[0179] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, and / or insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0180] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, and / or insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0181] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beams that triggered the reporting and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, and / or insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0182] If the uplink grant resources or padding bits are sufficient to transmit the measurement results of the candidate beams that triggered the reporting and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, and / or insufficient to transmit the measurement results of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0183] In this application embodiment, some new MAC CE formats are defined by the target MAC CE, such as MAC CE containing only the beam measurement results that trigger the reporting or only the serving cell measurement results, and the MAC CE is transmitted when the UL grant is small or the padding bits are small.

[0184] This application embodiment implements the design of the MAC CE format for L1 measurement reporting, which can efficiently and reasonably include various L1 measurement result-related information by designing the information carried by the MAC CE or the MAC CE format.

[0185] Optionally, the target candidate beam is a candidate beam that satisfies a measurement event and triggers a reporting.

[0186] Optionally, the target MAC CE also satisfies at least one of the following:

[0187] When the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the partial candidate beam, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE, or the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE used for filling;

[0188] When the padding bits are used to accommodate the target MAC CE, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE, or the event-triggered layer 1 measurement-reported MAC CE used for padding.

[0189] For example, when the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the candidate beams among the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE or the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE used for filling.

[0190] For example, when the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of a portion of the candidate beams among the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE or the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE used for filling.

[0191] For example, when the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE is the truncated MAC CE or the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE used for filling.

[0192] For example, when the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the serving cell's beam and the measurement results of a portion of the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, the target MAC CE is either the truncated MAC CE or the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE used for filling.

[0193] Optionally, when the target MAC CE is accommodated using the padding bits, the target MAC CE carries at least one of the following:

[0194] Measurement results of candidate beams that have been reported and still meet the measurement event;

[0195] Measurement results of candidate beams that do not meet the measurement event criteria.

[0196] In one implementation, the measurement results of candidate beams that have been reported and still meet the measurement event can include: the measurement results of candidate beams that were previously reported and still meet the measurement event.

[0197] For example, if a candidate beam satisfies a measurement event and has been reported previously, and continues to satisfy the measurement event without being triggered repeatedly, the measurement result of the candidate beam can be reported within padding bits. Optionally, the measurement result of the candidate beam should only be reported through padding bits if there is a change in the measurement result of the candidate beam compared to the previous report.

[0198] It should be noted that when using the padding bits to accommodate the target MAC CE, the beam reported by the target MAC CE can be selected based on the duration of the trigger time that satisfies the measurement event. Candidate beams can be sorted from highest to lowest according to the duration of the trigger time that satisfies the measurement event, and the beam ranked first can be selected. For example, the candidate beam with the longest duration of the trigger time that satisfies the measurement event can be preferentially selected.

[0199] Optionally, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, including: the target MAC CE carrying the measurement results of N candidate beams among the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0200] Optionally, the first information further includes at least one of the following:

[0201] The signal quality corresponding to the measurement results of the candidate beam; the duration of the measurement event trigger time.

[0202] In one implementation, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event. This may include: sorting the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event from high to low according to the signal quality corresponding to the measurement results of the candidate beams, and selecting the top T beams; or, sorting the M candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event from high to low according to the duration of the trigger time of the measurement event, and selecting the top T beams, where T is the number of beams whose measurement results can be transmitted by uplink grant resources or padding bits.

[0203] In one embodiment, the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of N candidate beams among the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event, which may include: sorting the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event from high to low according to the signal quality corresponding to the measurement results of the candidate beams, and selecting the N beams that are ranked first; or, sorting the K candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event from high to low according to the duration of the trigger time of satisfying the measurement event, and selecting the N beams that are ranked first.

[0204] Optionally, the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device, including:

[0205] If the first condition is met, the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device;

[0206] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0207] Trigger layer 1 measurement reporting;

[0208] The triggered Layer 1 measurement report was not canceled;

[0209] The uplink grant resources are insufficient to transmit the measurement results of R beams that satisfy the measurement event, or the uplink grant resources are insufficient to transmit the measurement results of R beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0210] Where R is the minimum or maximum value of N and K, N is the maximum number of beams corresponding to the reported beam measurement results configured by the network-side device, and K is the number of all candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the terminal.

[0211] The target MAC CE carries the measurement results of a portion of the R candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0212] In one implementation, if a first condition is met, the terminal prioritizes transmitting MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting.

[0213] In one implementation, if a first condition is met, the terminal uses a truncated MAC CE to perform event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting.

[0214] Optionally, when the first condition is met, the step of the terminal sending the target MAC CE to the network-side device includes:

[0215] If the first condition is met, the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device based on the first rule;

[0216] The first rule includes at least one of the following:

[0217] Prioritize the transmission of MAC CEs used for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting;

[0218] Use truncated MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting.

[0219] In one implementation, when the uplink grant resource cannot contain the measurement results of N or K beams that satisfy the measurement event, a truncated MAC CE can be used and the MAC CE can be transmitted preferentially.

[0220] In one implementation, MAC CEs that contain beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event have the highest priority; while beam measurement results that contain beam measurement results that do not satisfy the measurement event have a lower priority.

[0221] In one implementation, when the UL grant is small, a truncated MAC CE can be transmitted and beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event can be truncated (i.e., beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event are not reported).

[0222] In this application embodiment, a truncated MAC CE format can be used for the transmission of event-triggered L1 measurement reports, and it is defined when the truncated MAC CE needs to be used for event-triggered L1 measurement reports.

[0223] Optionally, the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device, including:

[0224] The terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device based on the second rule;

[0225] The second rule includes at least one of the following:

[0226] The first MAC CE has a higher transmission priority than the second MAC CE;

[0227] The first MAC CE has a higher transmission priority than the third MAC CE;

[0228] The second MAC CE has a higher transmission priority than the third MAC CE;

[0229] The transmission priority of the first MAC CE is in the first 4 positions of the priority sorting information;

[0230] The transmission priority of the second MAC CE is less than 3 positions away from the priority ranking position of messages other than data in the uplink common control channel UL-CCCH in the priority ranking information;

[0231] The transmission priority of the third MAC CE is located in the last 4 bits of the priority sorting information;

[0232] The first MAC CE is the priority MAC CE used for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting;

[0233] The second MAC CE is the MAC CE that is prioritized for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting;

[0234] The third MAC CE is the event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting MAC CE used for filling;

[0235] In the priority sorting information, the transmission priorities are sorted from largest to smallest.

[0236] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device based on the second rule, and the priority of L1 measurement reporting MAC CE is defined by the second rule.

[0237] Optionally, the first MAC CE carries only the measurement results of the beam that satisfies the measurement event and / or the measurement results of the serving cell's beam; and / or,

[0238] The second MAC CE carries the measurement results of the beam that does not meet the measurement event; and / or,

[0239] The third MAC CE performs event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting by padding bits.

[0240] Optionally, before the terminal reports the measurement results of the serving cell's beam via the target MAC CE, the method further includes:

[0241] The terminal receives configuration information sent by the network-side device, the configuration information being used to indicate that the terminal needs to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0242] In one embodiment, the terminal receives configuration information sent by the network-side device, which can also be described as the terminal being configured by the network-side device to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam.

[0243] Optionally, when the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, the first information further includes:

[0244] The amount of transmission resources occupied by the beam measurement results of the serving cell of the terminal.

[0245] In this embodiment of the application, if the terminal is configured to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, the measurement results of the serving cell's beam are considered when determining the information that can be transmitted by the uplink grant resources or padding bits; otherwise, the measurement results of the serving cell's beam may not be considered.

[0246] The following examples will provide further explanation:

[0247] In the example below, assume that the maximum number of beam results reported by the network side is N, and the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the UE is K. K may be greater than, equal to or less than N.

[0248] In addition, the following event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CEs are defined:

[0249] The first event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (or simply first target MAC CE) contains only the beam measurement results currently used by the serving cell.

[0250] The second event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (or simply second target MAC CE) contains only the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the reporting.

[0251] The third event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (or simply third target MAC CE) includes the measurement results of the candidate beam that triggered the report, plus the measurement results of the beam currently used by the serving cell.

[0252] The fourth event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (or simply fourth objective MAC CE) contains only the measurement results of candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event.

[0253] The fifth event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (or simply the fifth objective MAC CE) contains the measurement results of up to N candidate beams that meet the measurement event, plus the measurement results of the beam currently used by the serving cell.

[0254] The sixth event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (or simply the sixth objective MAC CE): the measurement results of candidate beams that meet the measurement event and the measurement results of candidate beams that do not meet the measurement event;

[0255] The seventh event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE (abbreviated as the seventh target MAC CE) consists of the measurement results of candidate beams that meet the measurement event and the measurement results of candidate beams that do not meet the measurement event, plus the measurement results of the beam currently used by the serving cell.

[0256] In this embodiment of the application, the target MAC CE can be any one of the first target MAC CE to the seventh target MAC CE described above. The first MAC CE can be any one of the first target MAC CE to the seventh target MAC CE described above. The second MAC CE can be any one of the first target MAC CE to the seventh target MAC CE described above. The third MAC CE can be any one of the first target MAC CE to the seventh target MAC CE described above.

[0257] When the target MAC CE is a truncated MAC CE or a padded MAC CE, for example, the format of the target MAC CE can be as shown in FIGS. 4a, 4b or 4c.

[0258] Among them, RSRP serving is the measurement result of the beam of the serving cell; Report ID is used to represent the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the measurement result reporting signaling; the Satisfied Quantity field is used to represent the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event in the measurement result reporting signaling (such as the target MAC CE), up to 16 (or 32); the DIFFRSRP field represents the differential RSRP (differential RSRP), and the differential RSRP is the difference between the measured RSRP and the strongest RSRP.

[0259] Example 1: Introduce a padded (padding) event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE [[ID=?]]

[0260] In one implementation, when at least one of the following conditions is satisfied, the UE reports the MAC CE for event-triggered L1 measurement reporting using padding bits:

[0261] When the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to the second target MAC CE plus the sub-header and less than the third target MAC CE plus the sub-header, report the second target MAC CE;

[0262] When the number of padding bits is equal to the third target MAC CE plus the sub-header, report the third target MAC CE;

[0263] When the number of padding bits is greater than the third target MAC CE plus the sub-header, and / or less than the size that can contain all N or K (for example, when K < N, take the value K here; when K >= N, take the value N here) candidate beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event plus the sub-header, report a truncated event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE. Optionally, the reported MAC CE contains the candidate beam measurement results with the best measurement results or the longest Time-to-Trigger (TTT) time in descending order;

[0264] When the number of padding bits is equal to the fourth target MAC CE plus the sub-header, report the fourth target MAC CE;

[0265] Note: There seems to be a formatting issue with the "? ID" in the original text. It's not clear what the correct ID should be for that line. The translation is done as accurately as possible based on the provided text.When the number of padding bits is equal to the fifth target MAC CE plus the sub - header, report the fifth target MAC CE;

[0266] If K > N, when the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to the size of including all N candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event plus the sub - header, and less than the size of including all K candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event plus the sub - header, report the truncated event - triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE. Optionally, the reported MAC CE includes the candidate beam measurement results with the best measurement results or the longest TTT time in descending order; or, if K > N, when the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to the size of including all N candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event plus the sub - header, and less than the size of including all K candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event plus the sub - header, report the event - triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE that includes N beam measurement results that meet the conditions (in this case, the truncated MAC CE is not used). Optionally, the reported MAC CE includes the candidate beam measurement results with the best measurement results or the longest TTT time in descending order;

[0267] If K < N, when the number of padding bits is greater than the size of including all K candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event, report the event - triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE that includes K beam measurement results that meet the measurement event and at most N - K beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event.

[0268] It should be noted that when comparing the number of padding bits with the size of a certain MAC CE, it can be comparing the number of padding bits with the size of the content in the MAC CE. For example, "when the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to the second target MAC CE plus the sub - header" can mean "when the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to the size of the candidate beam measurement results that trigger the report plus the sub - header".

[0269] In one implementation, when the network side configures that the terminal needs to report the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell, when judging the information carried by the padding bits, the judgment can be made after excluding the padding bits occupied by the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell. For example, "when the number of padding bits is greater than the size including all N candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event plus the sub-header" can be replaced with "if the network side configures that the terminal reports the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell, when the number of padding bits is greater than the size including all N candidate beam measurement results that meet the measurement event plus the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell plus the sub-header" or "if the network side configures that the terminal reports the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell, when the number of padding bits is greater than the fifth target MAC CE plus the sub-header".

[0270] There are the following cases:

[0271] Case 1: For the case where K < N:

[0272] When the following conditions are met, the UE can report the MAC CE for event-triggered L1 measurement reporting using padding bits:

[0273] When the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to N measurement results of beams that meet the measurement event plus the sub-header, the UE reports the event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE;

[0274] When the number of padding bits is less than the size of N beam measurement results plus the sub-header, but greater than K measurement results of beams that meet the measurement event plus the sub-header, the UE reports the event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE.

[0275] Optionally, the UE tries to include the measurement results of beams that do not meet the measurement event;

[0276] When the number of padding bits is less than K measurement results of beams that meet the measurement event plus the sub-header, the UE reports the truncated event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE.

[0277] Case 2: For the case where K = N:

[0278] When the following conditions are met, the UE can report the MAC CE for event-triggered L1 measurement reporting using padding bits:

[0279] When the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to N measurement results containing beams that satisfy the measurement event, plus the subheader, the UE reports an event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE.

[0280] If the number of padding bits is less than K beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event plus the sub-header, the UE reports a truncated event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE.

[0281] Case 3: For the case where K > N:

[0282] The UE can report MAC CE for event-triggered L1 measurement reporting using padding bits when the following conditions are met:

[0283] When the number of padding bits is greater than or equal to K measurement results containing beams that satisfy the measurement event, plus the subheader, the UE reports an event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE.

[0284] If the number of padding bits is less than the size of K beam measurement results plus the subheader, but greater than or equal to N beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event plus the subheader, then the UE reports a truncated event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE. The truncated event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE can inform the network-side device that because the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event is greater than N, not all beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event have been reported.

[0285] If the number of padding bits is less than N beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event plus the sub-header, the UE reports a truncated event-triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE.

[0286] Example 2:

[0287] The padding bits in Example 1 can be replaced with UL grant.

[0288] In one implementation, the UE reports the MAC CE used for event-triggered L1 measurement reporting according to the following rules:

[0289] When the size of the UL grant is greater than or equal to the second target MAC CE plus the sub - header and less than the third target MAC CE plus the sub - header, report the second target MAC CE;

[0290] When the size of the UL grant is equal to the third target MAC CE plus the sub - header, report the third target MAC CE;

[0291] When the size of the UL grant is greater than the third target MAC CE plus the sub - header, and / or less than the size that can contain all N or K candidate beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event plus the sub - header, report a truncated event - triggered L1 measurement report MAC CE. Optionally, the reported MAC CE includes in descending order the candidate beam measurement results with the best measurement results or the longest TTT time;

[0292] When the size of the UL grant is equal to the fourth target MAC CE plus the sub - header, report the fourth target MAC CE;

[0293] When the size of the UL grant is equal to the fifth target MAC CE plus the sub - header, report the fifth target MAC CE.

[0294] There are the following cases:

[0295] Case 1: Define M, where M is less than K. When the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event is K, the maximum number of reported beams is N, and K < N;

[0296] - If the UL grant can transmit (or is expressed as put down) the measurement results of N beams, the UE reports the measurement results of K beams that satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of 0, 1, or 2 beams that do not satisfy the measurement event, and uses the normal MAC CE for transmission;

[0297] - If the UL grant can transmit the measurement results of K beams, the UE reports the measurement results of K beams that satisfy the measurement event (if there are restrictions on the number of cells or the number of beams reported per cell, all the beams that satisfy the measurement event and meet the allowed number of reported beams need to be reported) and uses the normal MAC CE for transmission;

[0298] - If the UL grant can transmit the measurement results of M beams, the UE reports M beams that satisfy the measurement event and uses the truncated MAC CE for transmission.

[0299] Case 2: Define M, where M is less than N, and the number of beams for the measured event is K, the maximum number of reported beams is N, and K > N:

[0300] - If the UL grant can transmit the measurement results of K beams, the UE reports the measurement results of N beams that meet the measurement events, using truncated MAC CE for transmission;

[0301] - If the UL grant can transmit the measurement results of N beams, the UE reports the measurement results of N beams that meet the measurement events, using truncated MAC CE for transmission;

[0302] - If the UL grant can transmit the measurement results of M beams, the UE reports the measurement results of the beams that satisfy the M measurement events, using truncated MAC CE for transmission.

[0303] Example 3:

[0304] In one implementation, the UE performs the first operation when at least one of the following conditions is met:

[0305] The measurement event was met, triggering L1 measurement reporting;

[0306] The triggered L1 measurement report was not canceled;

[0307] The uplink grant resource (UL grant) cannot contain the measurement results of N or K beams that satisfy the measurement event, or the uplink grant resource (UL grant) cannot contain the measurement results of N or K beams that satisfy the measurement event plus the measurement results of the serving cell;

[0308] The first operation includes at least one of the following:

[0309] Prioritize the transmission of the event that triggers L1 measurement reporting MAC CE;

[0310] Use truncated events to trigger L1 measurements to report to the MAC CE and include as many beam measurements as possible that satisfy the measurement events; optionally, the reported MAC CE includes candidate beam measurements in descending order of the best measurement result or the one that satisfies the longest TTT time.

[0311] Optionally, if K < N, that is, the number of beams satisfying the measurement event is less than the maximum reporting number N configured by the network side, a first operation is performed when the UL grant cannot include the measurement results of K beams; when the UL grant can include the measurement results of K beams but cannot include the measurement results of N beams, a second operation is performed. The second operation includes transmitting the event-triggered L1 measurement reporting MAC CE and includes as many measurement results of beams that do not satisfy the measurement event as possible.

[0312] In addition, that the UL grant cannot include the measurement results of K beams may mean that the size of the UL grant is less than the sum of the sizes of the measurement results of K beams and the sub-header of the event-triggered L1 measurement reporting MAC CE.

[0313] Optionally, if K >= N, that is, the number of beams satisfying the measurement event is greater than or equal to the maximum reporting number N configured by the network side, a first operation is performed when the UL grant cannot include the measurement results of N beams.

[0314] In addition, that the UL grant cannot include the measurement results of N beams may mean that the size of the UL grant is less than the sum of the sizes of the measurement results of N beams and the sub-header of the event-triggered L1 measurement reporting MAC CE.

[0315] Example 4:

[0316] It should be noted that in the following cases, the prioritized L1 beam measurement reporting MAC CE (i.e., the prioritized MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting) can be understood or replaced with the L1 beam measurement reporting MAC CE that only includes the measurement results of beams satisfying the measurement event and / or the current beam measurement results of the serving cell.

[0317] In addition to the prioritized L1 beam measurement reporting MAC CE (i.e., in addition to the prioritized MAC CE for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting), it can be understood or replaced with: the L1 beam measurement reporting MAC CE that includes the measurement results of beams that do not satisfy the measurement event; or, the L1 beam measurement reporting MAC CE that only includes the measurement results of beams that do not satisfy the measurement event; or the L1 beam measurement reporting MAC CE that includes the measurement results of beams that satisfy and do not satisfy the measurement event.

When the padding bits are of different sizes, different MAC CE formats or contents are reported. For example, when the padding bits < all beam measurement results that satisfy the measurement event, a truncated MAC CE is reported, otherwise an L1 measurement report MAC CE (non-truncated format) is reported.

[0401] The embodiments of the present application introduce a padding L1 measurement report MAC CE to reasonably utilize the padding bits.
