If the name of the core network equipment mentioned in the embodiments of this application changes in subsequent protocol versions (e.g., 6G), it is also within the scope of protection of this application.

[0060] Optionally, the core network equipment can be implemented by one or more functional modules in a single device, or by multiple devices working together; this application does not specifically limit this. It is understood that the aforementioned functional modules can be network elements in hardware devices, software functional modules running on dedicated hardware, or virtualized functional modules instantiated on a platform (e.g., a cloud platform).

[0061] For ease of understanding, the following explains some aspects of the embodiments of this application:

[0062] 1. Configuration and reporting of L1 / L2 triggered mobility (LTM) measurement.

[0063] 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.

[0064] 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:

[0065] LTM CSI reports configuration identifier;

[0066] LTM CSI resource configuration identifier;

[0067] LTM reporting configuration types include periodic reporting / semi-persistent reporting based on the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) and their corresponding reporting resources;

[0068] The LTM report includes the number of candidate cells reported by LTM CSI and the number of RS reported by each cell.

[0069] 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.

[0070] 2. Layer 3 (L3) measurement configuration and reporting configuration

[0071] 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:

[0072] (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.

[0073] (2) Report configurations, each reported configuration includes:

[0074] The reporting criteria are used to trigger the UE to send measurement reports, which can be periodic reports or event-triggered reports;

[0075] RS type, which indicates which RS the UE uses to derive L3 measurement results;

[0076] The reporting format refers to the parameters included in the measurement report by the UE (e.g., Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP)).

[0077] 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).

[0078] (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.

[0079] (4) Parameter configuration defines the filter configuration parameters used for all event evaluation and related reporting as well as periodic measurement reporting.

[0080] (5) Measurement interval: The period during which the UE performs measurements.

[0081] 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.

[0082] 3. Event-triggered L1 measurement reporting

[0083] 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:

[0084] Event 2: When the measurement result of the current beam of the serving cell is <= the second threshold;

[0085] 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;

[0086] Event 4: When the measurement result of the candidate beam of the candidate cell is >= the third threshold;

[0087] 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.

[0088] 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.

[0089] 4. NR MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU)

[0090] 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).

[0091] 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.

[0092] Each MAC subPDU has the following possibilities:

[0093] - A MAC subheader only (including padding);

[0094] - MAC subheader and MAC SDU;

[0095] - MAC subheader and MAC CE;

[0096] - MAC subheader and padding.

[0097] 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.

[0098] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, details the information reporting method, information receiving method, apparatus, and related equipment provided in this application through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0099] 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:

[0100] Step 101: The terminal sends the target Media Access Control (MAC) CE to the network-side device. The target MAC CE is the MAC CE used for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting.

[0101] The target MAC CE can be used to report the measurement results of beams that meet and / or do not meet the measurement event. The measurement event is the event that triggers the layer 1 measurement reporting.

[0102] In this embodiment, the measurement results may include RSRP, RSRQ, or SINR, etc., and this embodiment does not limit them.

[0103] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal sends a target Media Access Control (MAC) CE to the network-side device. The target MAC CE is a MAC CE used for event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting. In this way, event-triggered layer 1 measurement reporting through the target MAC CE can reduce the reporting overhead compared to periodic or semi-persistent reporting.

[0104] In related technologies, it is unclear what specific content should be reported in event-triggered L1 measurement reporting, and it is also unclear how to efficiently and reasonably include various L1 measurement result-related information (such as specific measurement result power values) through MAC CE format design.

[0105] In one implementation, the target MAC CE may satisfy at least one of the following:

[0106] The target MAC CE includes a first field, which indicates the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE;

[0107] The target MAC CE includes a tenth field, which is used to indicate the differential reference signal received power (RSRP) of at least one first beam.

[0108] The differential RSRP can refer to the difference between the measured RSRP and the strongest RSRP. The differential RSRP of the first beam can refer to the difference between the RSRP of the first beam and the RSRP of the second beam. The second beam can be the beam with the largest RSRP value among the reported beams, and the first beam can be any beam other than the second beam among the reported beams.

[0109] Optionally, the target MAC CE satisfies at least one of the following:

[0110] The target MAC CE includes a first field, which indicates the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE;

[0111] The target MAC CE includes a second field, which is used to indicate the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the target MAC CE;

[0112] The target MAC CE includes a third field and a fourth field. The third field is used to indicate the identifiers of the M beams that satisfy the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE. The fourth field is used to indicate the measurement result of the beam corresponding to the third field. M is a positive integer.

[0113] The target MAC CE includes a fifth field and / or a sixth field, wherein the fifth field is used to indicate the identifier of the serving cell's beam, and the sixth field is used to indicate the measurement result of the serving cell's beam;

[0114] The target MAC CE includes a seventh field and an eighth field. The seventh field is used to indicate the identifiers of R beams that do not meet the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE. The eighth field is used to indicate the measurement result of the beam corresponding to the seventh field. R is a positive integer, R is less than or equal to NM, N is the maximum number of beams corresponding to the reported beam measurement results configured by the network-side device, and M is the number of beams that meet the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE.

[0115] The target MAC CE includes a ninth field, or the identifier of the beam that triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE and its corresponding measurement results are arranged at the beginning of all reporting beams or at the end of all reported beams that meet the measurement event, wherein the ninth field is used to indicate the position of the beam that triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE.

[0116] The beam identifier can also be described as a beam index.

[0117] In this embodiment of the application, the beam that satisfies the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE can refer to the reported beam that satisfies the measurement event. The beam that does not satisfy the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE can refer to the reported beam that does not satisfy the measurement event.

[0118] 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.

[0119] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not limit the number of bits occupied by each field from the first field to the ninth field.

[0120] In one embodiment, the target MAC CE includes a first field, so that the network-side device can obtain the number of beams that meet the measurement event reported by the target MAC CE by parsing the first field in the target MAC CE, and thus can parse the measurement results of the corresponding number of beams that meet the measurement event from the target MAC CE according to the number indicated by the first field.

[0121] In one embodiment, the target MAC CE includes a third field and a fourth field, so that the network-side device can determine which beams satisfy the measurement event and the measurement results of the beams satisfying the measurement event by parsing the third field and the fourth field in the target MAC CE.

[0122] In one embodiment, the target MAC CE includes a fifth field and / or a sixth field, so that the network-side device can determine which beam is the serving cell beam of the terminal and the measurement result of the serving cell beam of the terminal by parsing the fifth field.

[0123] In one embodiment, the target MAC CE includes a seventh field and an eighth field, so that the network-side device can determine which beams do not meet the measurement event and the measurement results of the beams that do not meet the measurement event by parsing the seventh field and the eighth field in the target MAC CE.

[0124] In one implementation, the target MAC CE includes a ninth field, so that the network-side device can determine which beam triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE by parsing the ninth field in the target MAC CE.

[0125] In one implementation, the ninth field is used to indicate the position of the beam that triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE. Specifically, the ninth field indicates the position of the beam that triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE among all reported beams. The ninth field can indicate which beam triggered the current report; for example, the ninth field can be the number of beams.

[0126] In one implementation, the MAC CE includes:

[0127] (1) The 3-bit to 6-bit Report ID (or Event ID) (i.e., the second field) is used to represent the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the measurement result reporting signaling.

[0128] (2) 4-bit (or 5-bit) Satisfied Quantity (i.e., the first field) is used to represent the number of beams that satisfy the measurement event in the measurement result reporting signaling, up to 16 (or 32).

[0129] (3) The beam identifier (or index) (i.e., the third field) and the corresponding measurement result (i.e., the fourth field) of the M beams of the measurement event are satisfied. The beam identifier has a bit length of 9 bits. The beam identifier can be a synchronization signal block resource indicator (SS / PBCH Block Resource indicator, SSBRI) or a CSI-RS resource indicator (CSI-RS Resource Indicator, CRI). The corresponding measurement result has a bit length of 7 bits.

[0130] (4) Measurement results of the serving cell beam (i.e., the sixth field), which is 7 bits. Optionally, the beam currently in use by the serving cell may also include RSRI.

[0131] (5) The beam identifier (or index) (i.e., the seventh field) and the corresponding measurement result (i.e., the eighth field) of the maximum NM beams that do not meet the measurement event. The beam identifier accounts for 9 bits, the corresponding measurement result accounts for 7 bits, and N is the maximum number of beams to be reported, which includes beams that meet the measurement event and beams that do not meet the measurement event.

[0132] (6) Optionally, the MAC CE indicates which beam triggered this report using 4-bit (or 5-bit) indication information (i.e., the ninth field). For example, this 4-bit (or 5-bit) indication information can indicate the number of beams, up to 16 (or 32); or, the beam identifier or index (9-bit, SSBRI or CRI) corresponding to the triggered beam, and the corresponding measurement result (7-bit) can be placed at the first beam position (RSRI1 and RSRP1) or the last beam position that satisfies the measurement event (RSRI). M and RSRP M ).

[0133] (7) Reserved field R: Reserved bit.

[0134] The embodiments of this application, through the design of the MAC CE format for L1 measurement reporting, can reasonably include all the measurement reporting information that needs to be reported.

[0135] Optionally, the target MAC CE also satisfies at least one of the following:

[0136] The second field occupies X1 bits, where X1 is an integer greater than or equal to 3 and less than or equal to 6.

[0137] The first field occupies 4 bits, or the first field occupies 5 bits;

[0138] The third field occupies X2 bits, where X2 is a positive integer less than or equal to 9;

[0139] The fourth field occupies 7 bits;

[0140] The fifth field occupies X3 bits, where X3 is a positive integer less than or equal to 9;

[0143] The eighth field occupies 7 bits;

[0144] The ninth field occupies 4 or 5 bits.

[0145] In one implementation, the third field may occupy 9 or 4 bits.

[0146] In one implementation, the seventh field may occupy 9 or 4 bits.

[0147] This application implements a MAC CE format design for L1 measurement reporting, which enables the efficient and reasonable inclusion of various L1 measurement result-related information (such as specific measurement result power values) through the MAC CE format design.

[0148] Optionally, the target MAC CE satisfies at least one of the following:

[0149] The target MAC CE includes a tenth field, which is used to indicate the differential reference signal received power RSRP of at least one first beam;

[0150] The target MAC CE includes a second field, which is used to indicate the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the target MAC CE;

[0151] The target MAC CE includes an eleventh field, which is used to indicate whether the second beam satisfies the measurement event.

[0152] The target MAC CE includes a twelfth field, which is used to indicate whether the second beam is the beam that triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE;

[0153] The target MAC CE includes a thirteenth field, which is used to indicate the identifiers of Q beams that meet or do not meet the measurement event corresponding to the measurement result carried by the target MAC CE, where Q is a positive integer;

[0154] The target MAC CE includes a fourteenth field, which is used to indicate the measurement results of the second beam;

[0155] The target MAC CE includes a fifteenth field, which is used to indicate whether the first beam satisfies the measurement event;

[0156] The target MAC CE includes a sixteenth field, which is used to indicate whether the first beam is the beam that triggered the reporting of the target MAC CE;

[0157] The target MAC CE includes a fifth field and / or a sixth field, wherein the fifth field is used to indicate the identifier of the serving cell's beam, and the sixth field is used to indicate the measurement result of the serving cell's beam;

[0158] Wherein, the second beam is the beam corresponding to the measurement result with the largest value among the measurement results carried by the target MAC CE, and the first beam is the beam other than the second beam among the beams corresponding to the measurement results carried by the target MAC CE.

[0159] The beam identifier can also be described as a beam index.

[0160] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not limit the number of bits occupied by each of the second, fifth, sixth, and tenth to fifteenth fields.

[0161] In one embodiment, the beam corresponding to the measurement result with the largest value among the measurement results carried by the target MAC CE (i.e., the second beam) can be arranged in a preset fixed position in the target MAC CE.

[0162] In one embodiment, the beam corresponding to the measurement result with the largest value among the measurement results carried by the target MAC CE (i.e., the second beam) can be arranged at the top of all reported beams in the target MAC CE.

[0163] In one implementation, the target MAC CE includes an eleventh field, so that the network-side device can determine whether the beam with the largest measurement result value satisfies the measurement event by parsing the eleventh field in the target MAC CE.

[0164] In one embodiment, the target MAC CE includes a fourteenth field, so that the network-side device can obtain the measurement result of the beam with the largest measurement result value by parsing the fourteenth field in the target MAC CE.

[0165] This application embodiment can reduce overhead by using differential RSRP to report beam measurement results. Furthermore, when using differential RSRP to report beam measurement results, the MAC CE format design of the L1 measurement reporting signaling is implemented, so that the designed MAC CE can reasonably include all the measurement reporting information that needs to be reported.

[0166] In one implementation, when reporting beam measurement results using a 4-bit differential RSRP, the MAC CE includes:

[0167] (1) The 3-bit to 6-bit Report ID (or Event ID) (i.e., the second field) is used to represent the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the measurement result reporting signaling.

[0168] (2) S (i.e., eleven fields): 1 bit is used to indicate whether the beam of the maximum value of the measurement result RSRP satisfies the measurement event.

[0169] (3) T or R (i.e., the twelfth field): Optionally, 1 bit is used to indicate whether the beam with the maximum value of the measurement result RSRP is the beam that triggered this report.

[0170] (4) The beam identifier (or index) (i.e., the thirteenth field) corresponding to the M beams that satisfy or do not satisfy the measurement event (Q equals M). The beam identifier has a 9-bit share and can be SSBRI or CRI.

[0171] (5) Measurement results corresponding to M beams that meet or do not meet the measurement event. The measurement result of the beam with the largest RSRP value accounts for 7 bits (i.e., the fourteenth field), and the measurement results of the other beams account for 4 bits (i.e., the tenth field). The 4 bits reported are the difference RSRP.

[0172] (6) C (i.e., the fifteenth field): whether the corresponding beam satisfies the measurement event.

[0173] (7)P (i.e., the sixteenth field): Optionally, whether the corresponding beam is the beam that triggered this report.

[0174] (8) Measurement results of the serving cell beam (i.e., the sixth field), 7 bits. Optionally, the beam currently in use for the serving cell may also include RSRI.

[0175] (9) Reserved field R: Reserved bit.

[0176] Optionally, the target MAC CE also satisfies at least one of the following:

[0177] The second field occupies 3 or more bits and 6 or less bits.

[0178] The eleventh field occupies 1 bit;

[0179] The twelfth field occupies 1 bit;

[0180] The number of bits occupied by the thirteenth field is X5, where X5 is a positive integer less than or equal to 9;

[0181] The fourteenth field occupies 7 bits;

[0182] The tenth field occupies 4 bits;

[0183] The fifteenth field occupies 1 bit;

[0184] The sixteenth field occupies 1 bit;

[0185] The fifth field occupies X6 bits, where X6 is a positive integer less than or equal to 9;

[0186] The sixth field occupies 7 bits.

[0187] In one implementation, the thirteenth field may occupy 9 bits.

[0188] Optionally, when the target MAC CE is used to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam, the target MAC CE carries a preset identifier, which is used to indicate the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the target MAC CE;

[0189] Wherein, the preset identifier satisfies at least one of the following:

[0190] The preset identifier is associated with measurement resources containing the serving cell beam;

[0191] The preset identifier is based on protocol agreement or network-side device configuration.

[0192] The target MAC CE is used to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam. This can mean that the target MAC CE only contains the measurement results of the serving cell's beam. It can be understood or replaced as the measurement report reported by the target MAC CE only contains the serving cell's beam.

[0193] In one implementation, if the measurement report only contains the serving cell's beam, when the L1 measurement reporting event is LTM2 or other measurement events unrelated to the candidate cell's beam (such as A1 or A2 events), the L1 reporting configuration or triggered reporting satisfies or executes one of the following conditions:

[0194] The Report config ID (i.e., the preset identifier) ​​configured for reporting events as LTM2 or other measurement events unrelated to the candidate cell beam must be associated with at least a measurement resource (such as an LTM CSI resource set) that contains the serving cell beam;

[0195] The report config ID or event ID (i.e., preset identifier) ​​is used by the protocol or pre-configured by the base station. The report config ID or event ID is only used to trigger reporting after the measurement event related to the serving cell beam is met. Optionally, the protocol stipulates that when the triggering event in the LTM reporting configuration is LTM2, the measurement resources (such as LTM CSI resource set) associated with the report config ID or event ID are ignored.

[0196] In one implementation, if the target MAC CE is used to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (or, in other words, the measurement report only contains the serving cell's beam), the maximum number of reports N configured on the network side can be one of the following two cases:

[0197] The UE can contain a maximum of N beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event;

[0198] Since the serving cell's beam occupies one of the maximum reporting quantities, the UE can still contain a maximum of N-1 beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event.

[0199] In one implementation, if the target MAC CE is used to report the measurement results of the serving cell's beam (or, in other words, the measurement report only contains the serving cell's beam), the format of the target MAC CE can be at least one of the following:

[0200] As shown in Figure 4a, reporting is performed using a separate MAC CE format, RSRP serving The measurement results of the beam for the service area.

[0201] As shown in Figure 4b, the MAC CE format is consistent with that of the beam reporting other measurement events. The MAC CE includes a 3-6 bit report ID, with all satisfied quantity bits set to 0 in the MAC CE, and RSRP1-RSRP... M All of these are measurement results for beams that do not meet the measurement event criteria.

[0202] As shown in Figure 4c, the MAC CE includes a 3-6 bit report ID. All satisfied quantity bits in the MAC CE are set to 0, indicating the measurement result of the serving beam (i.e., RSRP). serving Place it at the very beginning of MAC CE.

[0203] As shown in Figure 4d, the MAC CE format is consistent with that of the beam reporting other measurement events. The MAC CE includes a 3-6 bit report ID. All satisfied quantity bits in the MAC CE are set to 0. The measurement results of the serving beam are placed at the beginning of the MAC CE. The RSRI is the RSRI corresponding to the serving beam. Alternatively, if the serving beam does not have an RSRI, all bits are set to 1, 0, or the values ​​agreed upon in the protocol are used.

[0204] In this embodiment of the application, when the measurement event corresponds only to the serving cell beam, a dedicated report config ID can be used instead of a regular report config ID that must be associated with a CSI resource set containing the current serving cell beam.

[0205] Optionally, before the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device, the method further includes:

[0206] The terminal selects T beams from multiple beams that do not meet the measurement event based on a first rule, where T is a positive integer and T is less than or equal to NK. The target MAC CE carries at least one of the following: the measurement results of the T beams, and the measurement results of the K beams that meet the measurement event.

[0207] Where 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 candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the terminal.

[0208] The first rule includes at least one of the following:

[0209] Beam selection is based on the ranking information of the beam measurement results.

[0210] Select a beam whose measurement results satisfy the first threshold;

[0211] The beam is selected based on the sorting information of the duration for which the beam measurement results satisfy the second threshold, where the second threshold is used to determine whether the measurement event is satisfied.

[0212] Prioritize or select only the beam from the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that satisfies the measurement event and has the best measurement result;

[0213] Prioritize or select only beams that are in the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that meets the measurement event and triggers the reporting.

[0214] Among them, selecting a beam based on the sorting information of the measurement result magnitude of the beam may mean sorting the measurement results of the beams from high to low and selecting the top T beams in the sorting.

[0215] Among them, selecting a beam based on the sorting information of the duration for which the measurement result of the beam satisfies the second threshold may mean sorting the durations for which the measurement results of the beams satisfy the second threshold from high to low and selecting the top T beams in the sorting.

[0216] In one implementation, assume that the network configures N (that is, at most N beams are reported), and among them, K beams satisfy the measurement event, and K < N. Select at most N - K unsatisfied beams to be included in the measurement report according to at least one of the following rules:

[0217] (1) Select a beam based on the sorting information of the measurement result magnitude of the beam. For example, sort the beam measurement results from high to low, including at most N - K beam results.

[0218] (2) Select the beams whose measurement results of the beams satisfy the first threshold. For example, in addition to the second threshold (the threshold used to determine whether the measurement event is satisfied) in the event configuration, a first threshold is set separately. The first threshold is configured in the corresponding event or independently of the corresponding event configuration. When reporting, only report N - M beams that satisfy the first threshold. Optionally, 1 bit can be set in the MAC CE to indicate whether the first threshold is satisfied.

[0219] It should be noted that when there are two thresholds for determining whether a measurement event is satisfied (the threshold corresponding to the serving cell and the threshold corresponding to the candidate cell), the second threshold here refers to the threshold corresponding to the candidate cell.

[0220] In addition, satisfying the first threshold means that the quality of the beam is higher than or equal to the first threshold.

[0221] (3) Select a beam based on the sorting information of the duration for which the measurement result of the beam satisfies the second threshold. For example, sort the durations for which the beams satisfy the second threshold in the event configuration from high to low, including at most N - K beam results.

[0222] (4) Preferentially select or only select the beams in the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that satisfies the measurement event and has the best measurement result. For example, preferentially select or only select the unsatisfied beams in the same cell or the same measurement resource (such as the LTM CSI resource set) as the beam that satisfies the measurement event and has the best beam quality.

[0223] For example, beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event can be reported using a 4-bit differential RSRP, excluding the beam identifier or index (such as SSBRI or CRI).

[0224] (5) Prioritize or select only the beam that is in the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that meets the measurement event and triggers the reporting. For example, prioritize or select only the unsatisfied beam that is in the same cell or the same measurement resource (such as LTM CSI resource set) as the beam that triggers the reporting.

[0225] For example, beam measurement results that do not meet the measurement event can be reported using a 4-bit differential RSRP, excluding the beam identifier or index (such as SSBRI or CRI).

[0226] In this embodiment of the application, when selecting a beam that does not meet the measurement event but is to be included in the measurement report, the beam that does not meet the event can be selected preferentially based on the time-to-trigger (TTT) time for the beam to meet the threshold, or based on the candidate cell or CSI resource set in which the beam is located.

[0227] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal selects T beams from multiple beams that do not meet the measurement event based on a first rule, which solves the problem of how to select the appropriate beams when the measurement report needs to include the measurement results of the beams that do not meet the measurement event.

[0228] Optionally, the measurement results of the T beams in the target MAC CE are characterized by differential RSRP.

[0229] Optionally, before the terminal sends the target MAC CE to the network-side device, the method further includes:

[0230] The terminal selects N beams from K beams that satisfy the measurement event based on a second rule, and the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the selected N beams;

[0231] Where 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 candidate beams that satisfy the measurement event obtained by the terminal.

[0232] The second rule includes at least one of the following:

[0233] Beam selection is based on the ranking information of the beam measurement results.

[0234] The beam is selected based on the sorting information of the duration for which the beam measurement results satisfy the second threshold, where the second threshold is used to determine whether the measurement event is satisfied.

[0235] Prioritize or select only the beam from the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that satisfies the measurement event and has the best measurement result;

[0236] Prioritize or select only beams that are in the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that meets the measurement event and triggers the reporting.

[0237] Among them, selecting beams based on the sorting information of the beam measurement results can refer to sorting the beam measurement results from highest to lowest and selecting the top N beams in the sorting.

[0238] Among them, selecting beams based on the sorting information of the duration for which the beam measurement results meet the second threshold can mean sorting the duration for which the beam measurement results meet the second threshold from high to low, and selecting the N beams that are ranked first.

[0239] In one implementation, assuming the network is configured with N beams (i.e., reporting at most N beams), of which K beams satisfy the measurement event, and K>=N, the N beams satisfying the measurement event are selected to be included in the measurement report according to at least one of the following rules:

[0240] (1) Select beams based on the sorting information of the beam measurement results. For example, sort the beam measurement results from high to low, including up to N beam results.

[0241] (2) Select beams based on the sorting information of the duration of the measurement results of the beams satisfying the second threshold. For example, sort the beams from high to low according to the duration of the beams satisfying the second threshold in the event configuration, including up to N beam results.

[0242] (3) Prioritize or select only the beam that is in the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that meets the measurement event and has the best measurement result. For example, prioritize or select only the beam that is in the same cell or the same measurement resource (such as LTM CSI resource set) as the beam that meets the condition and has the best beam quality.

[0243] (4) Prioritize or select only beams that are in the same cell or the same measurement resource as the beam that triggers the reporting of the measurement event. For example, prioritize or select only beams that are in the same cell or the same measurement resource (such as LTM CSI resource set) as the beam that triggers the reporting.

[0244] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal selects N beams from K beams that meet the measurement event based on the second rule, solving the problem of how to select corresponding beams when selecting N beams from K beams that meet the measurement event in measurement reporting.

[0245] Optionally, the method may further include:

[0246] If it is impossible to report all K beams that meet the measurement event due to uplink grant resource or padding bit size limitations, and only Q beams that meet the measurement event (Q < K) can be reported, then the terminal may select Q beams from the K beams that meet the measurement event based on the second rule, and the target MAC CE carries the measurement results of the selected Q beams.

[0247] The following are supplementary explanations through several examples:

[0248] Example 1:

[0249] Case 1: The MAC CE includes a 6-bit report ID or event ID, and the format of the MAC CE is shown in Figure 5a.

[0250] Case 2: The MAC CE includes a 3-bit report ID or event ID, and the format of the MAC CE is shown in Figure 5b.

[0251] Case 3: The measurement result of the serving cell beam in the MAC CE is placed at the end, and the format of the MAC CE is shown in Figures 5c and 5d.

[0252] Case 4: The measurement result of the serving cell beam in the MAC CE is placed at the end, and the serving beam corresponds to a 9-bit RSRI in the MAC CE. The format of the MAC CE is shown in Figure 5e.

[0253] Example 2:

[0254] Case 1: The MAC CE includes a 6-bit report ID or event ID.

[0255] As shown in Figure 6a, the MAC CE includes:

[0256] (1) A 3-bit to 6-bit Report ID (or Event ID) is used to represent the reporting configuration or event configuration associated with the measurement result reporting signal.

[0257] (2) S: 1 bit is used to indicate whether the beam with the maximum RSRP of the measurement result meets the measurement event.

[0258] (3) T or R: Optionally, 1 bit is used to indicate whether the beam with the maximum value of the measurement result RSRP is the beam that triggered this report.

[0259] (4)RSRI M : The beam identifier (or index) corresponding to the M beams that meet or do not meet the measurement event. The beam identifier is 9 bits long and can be SSBRI or CRI.

[0260] (5) RSRP M The measurement results for the M beams that meet or do not meet the measurement event are as follows: the measurement result of the beam with the largest RSRP value accounts for 7 bits, and the measurement results of the other beams account for 4 bits. The 4 bits reported are the difference RSRP, i.e., DIFFRSRP in Figure 6a. M Field.

[0261] (6)C M : Whether the beam-M satisfies the measurement event.

[0262] (7)P M :Optionally, whether beam-M is the beam that triggered this report.

[0263] (8) The measurement results of the serving cell beam account for 7 bits.

[0264] (9) Reserved field R: Reserved bit.

[0265] Case 2: MAC CE includes a 3-bit report ID or event ID. The format of MAC CE is shown in Figure 6b.

[0266] Example 3:

[0267] Step (1): Configure measurement event LTM2 on the network side.

[0268] Step (2): The UE performs LTM2 event assessment. When the current beam of the serving cell is less than or equal to the third threshold and TTT is met, measurement reporting is triggered.

[0269] Step (3a): The UE uses the Report ID, which is dedicated to the current beam of the serving cell or dedicated to LTM2 events as agreed in the protocol, to include it in the measurement reporting signaling, and also includes the beam measurement results of the serving cell.

[0270] Step (4): The UE performs L1 measurement reporting.

[0271] Example 4:

[0272] The agreement stipulates one of the following:

[0273] (1) Select only unsatisfied beams that are in the same cell or the same measurement resource (such as LTM CSI resource set) as the beam that satisfies the measurement event and has the best beam quality.

[0274] (2) Select only the unsatisfied beam that is in the same cell or in the same measurement resource (such as LTM CSI resource set) as the beam that triggered the report.

[0275] As shown in Figure 7, the first M beams are those that meet the conditions, and M+1 to at most N beams are those that do not meet the conditions. Optionally, if the parity of M is different from the parity of the total number of beams reported in the end, and a complete byte cannot be formed, RSRP can be used. N Set the 4 bits at that location to 0.

[0276] This application defines a reasonable MAC CE format to include all measurement reporting information that needs to be reported. It achieves efficient and reasonable measurement reporting while minimizing the number of bits (e.g., using differential RSRP), saving air interface signaling overhead. This application defines reporting signaling for various situations, improving the terminal-side reporting signaling design. This allows the terminal to flexibly select different signaling for reporting in different situations, ensuring consistency between the network and the terminal. Furthermore, by specifying how to include beams that do not meet the measurement event criteria in the reporting signaling, the terminal can select more reasonable beams for reporting. This allows the network to more accurately assess cell quality based on the UE's reported measurement results, enabling better handover decisions.

[0277] Referring to Figure 8, which is a flowchart of an information receiving method provided in an embodiment of this application, the information receiving method includes the following steps:
