[0001] Cross-reference of related applications
[0002] This application is based on and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202510287979.3, filed on March 12, 2025, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0003] This application relates to the field of communications, and more particularly to a measurement method, apparatus, device, storage medium, and program product. Background Technology
[0004] ATG (Air-to-Ground) is a technology that provides communication services to airborne CPEs (Customer Premise Equipment) via ground base stations. Due to the large number of users, it requires higher system throughput. To improve uplink and downlink coverage and link performance, related technologies have introduced array antenna terminals into ATG. This type of terminal supports beamforming in the FR1 band. After the network configures the MO (Measurement Object) for the ATG terminal, the ATG terminal needs to measure the cells on that MO frequency point according to the SMTC (Semi-static Measurement Timing Configuration), thereby ensuring network performance and user experience through measurement.
[0005] Although the ATG terminal in the relevant technology can measure cells on the MO frequency, the measurement scheme and measurement latency indicators used in the measurement process do not take into account the actual scenario. It uniformly requires the ATG terminal to measure the serving cell and all neighboring cells on the measurement frequency configured on the MO. When performing neighboring cell measurement, the ATG terminal needs to transfer some resources from the signal reception and processing of the serving cell to the measurement of the neighboring cell signal. This leads to a decrease in the signal processing capability of the serving cell, thereby reducing the throughput of the serving cell. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, considering the correspondingly shortened measurement reporting cycle of the current serving cell, the network device can issue second information to configure the measurement latency index of the terminal device during measurement, thereby relaxing the measurement latency of the serving cell. For the serving cell, with the same measurement cycle as traditional measurement schemes, it can improve system throughput and bring additional energy-saving benefits to the terminal.

[0067] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0068] The relevant measurement schemes and indicators do not take into account the actual scenario, requiring the terminal to measure the serving cell and all neighboring cells on the measurement frequency points configured by MO, which causes the array antenna terminal to face the loss of serving cell throughput when measuring neighboring cells.
[0069] Considering the actual deployment scenarios of ATG, at least the following scenarios have been identified where terminals can avoid neighbor cell measurements, thereby improving system throughput and meeting the system capacity requirements of ATG:
[0070] Scenario 1: Co-site (multiple base station devices located at the same site) CA (carrier aggregation) scenario, frequency point f1 is the SCC (Secondary Component Carrier) frequency point in the network. The SCC frequency point is close to the PCC (Primary Component Carrier) frequency point, but higher than the PCC frequency point. In this case, the network can deduce the measurement results of the neighboring cell's SCC by the measurement results of the neighboring cell's PCC.
[0071] Scenario 2: Co-site CA scenario, within the serving cell, frequency point f1 is the SCC frequency point, and the neighboring cells have not deployed or enabled the subcarrier of frequency point f1.
[0072] Scenario 3: The serving cell is on frequency f1, and the neighboring cells are all on other frequencies other than f1.
[0073] Scenario 4: Co-site CA scenario, frequency point f1 is the SCC frequency point in the network. When the terminal is located in the center of the cell, there is no need for mobility measurement, so neighbor cell measurement is not required.
[0074] In these scenarios, a data transmission method is needed to instruct the terminal to stop performing neighbor cell measurements on a specific frequency point, thereby avoiding throughput loss caused by neighbor cell measurements.
[0075] Furthermore, under the relevant measurement scheme, considering that when the array antenna terminal measures neighboring cells, the beam direction is aligned with the neighboring cell direction, preventing data communication with the serving cell, the array antenna terminal's reception of the serving cell's PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel), PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), TRS (Tracking Reference Signal), and CSI-RS (Channel State Information-Reference Signal) is limited during neighboring cell measurements. This results in a loss of system throughput. Therefore, without considering the actual network deployment scenario, for directional antenna terminals, even in scenarios where neighboring cell measurements are not required, the relevant measurement latency indicators still require the terminal to perform neighboring cell measurements. This increases measurement latency and imposes network-side scheduling constraints during measurement, further contributing to throughput loss.
[0076] This application provides a measurement method that can instruct a terminal to stop performing neighbor cell measurements, thereby avoiding the problem of serving cell throughput loss caused by neighbor cell measurements.
[0077] The network device described in this application embodiment may be an evolved Node B (eNB or eNodeB) in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, or a Next Generation Radio Access Network (NG RAN) device, or a base station (gNB) in an NR system, or a radio controller in a Cloud Radio Access Network (CRAN), or the network device may be a relay station, access point, vehicle-mounted device, wearable device, hub, switch, bridge, router, or network device in a future evolved Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN), etc.
[0078] The terminal device described in this application embodiment can be any terminal device, including but not limited to terminal devices that are connected to network devices or other terminal devices via wired or wireless connections. For example, the terminal device can refer to an access terminal, user equipment (UE), user unit, user station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, remote terminal, mobile device, user terminal, terminal, wireless communication device, user agent, or user device. The access terminal can be a cellular phone, cordless phone, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, IoT (Internet of Things) device, satellite handheld terminal, Wireless Local Loop (WLL) station, Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), handheld device with wireless communication function, computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, vehicle-mounted device, wearable device, terminal device in a 5G network, or terminal device in a future evolved network, etc.
[0079] Referring to Figure 1, which is a flowchart of a first measurement method provided in an embodiment of this application, the first measurement method is applied to a terminal device and includes:
[0080] S11, Receive the first information sent by the network device;
[0081] S12. Based on the first information, only the current serving cell is measured at a specific frequency point.
[0082] For example, the specific frequency point is the frequency point where the MO (Mobile Originator) is located. The MO defines the frequency point or cell that needs to be measured. In this embodiment, the network device can be configured to include only the frequency point of the currently serving cell in the MO. Considering network deployment and terminal status, there are scenarios where the terminal does not need to perform neighbor cell measurements (i.e., scenarios 1-4 above). The network device configures first information to indicate whether the terminal device needs to perform neighbor cell measurements, so that when neighbor cell measurements are not required, the terminal device only measures the currently serving cell. It should be noted that the currently serving cell includes the primary cell and the secondary cell, wherein the secondary cell includes activated secondary cells and inactive secondary cells.
[0083] In some embodiments, the first information is configured by a network device, which configures the first information in the following three ways:
[0084] Method 1: The first information is configured by the network device through the measurement object parameters;
[0085] Method 2: The first information is configured by the network device through signaling messages, wherein the signaling messages are RRC (Radio Resource Control) messages or MAC CE (MAC Control Element).
[0086] Method 3: The first information is configured by the network device through the measurement report configuration information.
[0087] In some embodiments, for method 1 described above, the first information is configured by the network device through measurement object parameters, and the first information is one of the following:
[0088] 1.1) First instruction information, carrying instruction markers.
[0089] For example, network devices configure `exclude Measneighbour` in the MO (Measuring Object) to be either `true` or `false`. `true` is the first identifier, and `false` is the second. If `exclude Measneighbour` is configured to `true`, it means that when the terminal device performs measurement operations, certain specific neighboring cells need to be removed from the list of measurement targets, and signal measurements will no longer be performed on these excluded neighboring cells.
[0090] Furthermore, when the first information is the first indication information, operation S12 includes: when the indication identifier is detected to be the first identifier, measuring only the current serving cell on a specific frequency point. At this time, when the terminal device measures the frequency point where the MO is located, it only measures the current serving cell.
[0091] 1.2) Second indication information, carrying the cell quality threshold.
[0092] For example, the second indication information indicates the cell quality threshold Threshold_1 of the PCell (the primary cell, i.e., the serving cell currently connected to by the terminal device). Threshold_1 is a threshold value configured by the network device to determine the cell quality of the PCell. The terminal device continuously measures the signal quality of the PCell (such as RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power), RSRQ (Reference Signal Receiving Quality), etc.) and compares it with this threshold. The second indication information may further carry a hysteresis value. This value is a parameter introduced to avoid frequent handovers or changes in measurement behavior. When determining cell quality, the terminal device can combine Threshold_1 with hysteresis to ensure that fluctuations in signal quality do not lead to frequent changes in measurement strategies.
[0093] Further, when the first information is the second indication information, operation S12 includes: when the cell quality parameters (such as RSRP, RSRQ, etc.) of the primary cell (PCell) are detected to be greater than the cell quality threshold, only the current serving cell is measured at a specific frequency point. When the cell quality parameters of the terminal device's PCell are higher than Threshold_1 (or higher than Threshold_1 + hysteresis), it is considered that the quality of the current serving cell is good enough, and there is no need to perform detailed measurements on other frequency points or neighboring cells. When the terminal device measures the frequency point where the MO is located, it only measures the current serving cell.
[0094] 1.3) The third indication information carries reference location information and distance threshold.
[0095] For example, the third indication information carries distance threshold from reference, reference location (such as the center location of the current serving cell), and may further carry hysteresis location, which is a parameter introduced to avoid frequent handovers or changes in measurement behavior.
[0096] Further, when the first information is the third indication information, operation S12 includes: calculating the real-time distance between the location of the terminal device and the reference location information; when the real-time distance is less than the distance threshold, only the current serving cell is measured at a specific frequency point. When the distance between the terminal device and the reference Location is less than the distance Thresh From Reference (or less than the distance Thresh From Reference - hysteresis Location), the terminal device itself is close enough to the center of the reference current serving cell, that is, the signal quality of the current serving cell may be good. When the terminal device measures the frequency point where the MO is located, only the current serving cell is measured.
[0097] In some embodiments, for method 2 described above, the first information is configured by the network device via signaling messages, where the signaling messages are RRC messages or MAC CE messages.
[0098] For example, the signaling message includes at least one SSB (Synchronization Signal and PBCH block) frequency point or at least one measurement object ID. If the signaling message is "exclude Meas neighbour list," it instructs the terminal device to list neighboring cells that are not included in the measurement range when performing measurement-related operations, including at least one SSB frequency point or at least one Meas Object ID, where "Meas" stands for "measure."
[0099] Furthermore, at this time, operation S12 includes: when measuring the SSB frequency point or the measurement object corresponding to the measurement object identifier, measuring only the current serving cell on the specific frequency point.
[0100] In some embodiments, for method 3 described above, the first information is configured by the network device through measurement report configuration information, and the first information is one of the following:
[0101] 3.1) The first measurement report triggers an event, carrying the cell quality threshold;
[0102] For example, the first measurement report triggering event is Event A1. Event A1 is used to indicate that when the signal quality of the current serving cell (such as RSRP, RSRQ, SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio)) is higher than the cell quality threshold (such as Threshold_1), the terminal device will report a measurement report to the network device.
[0103] Furthermore, when the first information is the first measurement report trigger event, the operation S12 includes: when the cell quality parameter of the primary cell (Pcell) is detected to be greater than the cell quality threshold, i.e. Event A1 is satisfied, the terminal device only measures the current serving cell on a specific frequency point.
[0104] 3.2) The second measurement report trigger event carries reference location information and distance threshold;
[0105] For example, the second measurement report trigger event is Event D3. Event D3 is typically used for measurement and cell reselection processes when the terminal device is in a disconnected state (such as RRC_IDLE or RRC_INACTIVE state). The Event D3 configuration includes at least the distance threshold from the reference and the reference location. It may also carry the hysteresis location, which is a parameter introduced to avoid frequent handovers or changes in measurement behavior.
[0106] Further, when the first information is the second measurement report trigger event, operation S12 includes: calculating the real-time distance between the location of the terminal device and the reference location information; when the real-time distance is less than the distance threshold, only the current serving cell is measured at a specific frequency point. When the distance between the terminal device and the reference location is less than the distance Thresh From Reference (or less than the distance Thresh From Reference - hysteresis Location), i.e., Event D3 is satisfied, when the terminal device measures the frequency point where the MO is located, only the current serving cell is measured.
[0107] In this embodiment, the network device configures first information to instruct the terminal device to perform measurements only on the current serving cell at a specific frequency, avoiding the problems of decreased throughput and increased measurement latency caused by the terminal device performing neighbor cell measurements. Furthermore, by focusing on the current serving cell measurement, the terminal device can more accurately and continuously acquire key information such as the signal quality of the current cell. This allows the network device to adjust communication parameters with the terminal device in a timely and precise manner based on more stable and accurate data, providing users with more reliable network services.
[0108] Furthermore, when the array antenna terminal measures neighboring cells, the beam direction is aligned with the neighboring cell direction, preventing the terminal from performing L1 (Physical Layer 1) / L3 (Network Layer 3) measurements of the serving cell. Related technologies define scaling factors for L1 and L3 measurements, the introduction of which increases the latency of both L1 and L3 measurements. However, when the terminal only measures the current serving cell, the scaling factor does not need to affect the measurement latency index. In this case, the following two situations exist:
[0109] Case 1: For the L1 measurement delay index, the delay index is TL1 when the scaling factor does not need to be applied to the measurement delay index.
[0110] For example, L1 measurement latency refers to the time required for a terminal device to perform measurements at the physical layer. Common L1 measurement latency metrics include L1-RSRP (Layer 1-Reference Signal Receiving Power), RLM (Radio Link Monitoring), and BFD (Beam Failure Detection). The scaling factor is a network configuration parameter used to adjust the latency requirements of the terminal during measurement. For example, when a terminal needs to measure multiple cells or multiple frequency points, the scaling factor can be used to extend the measurement time to accommodate more complex measurement tasks. TL1 is the measurement latency metric for omnidirectional antenna terminals. Omnidirectional antenna terminals refer to terminals without beamforming capabilities, and their measurement latency metric is usually a fixed value. When the terminal only measures the current serving cell, the measurement task is relatively simple and does not require additional latency adjustment. In the measurement of the current serving cell, the scaling factor is not applicable, so TL1 is directly used as the latency metric.
[0111] Case 2: For the L3 measurement delay index, the delay index is TL3 when the scaling factor does not need to be applied to the measurement delay index.
[0112] For example, the L3 measurement latency metric refers to the time required for a terminal device to perform measurements at the network layer. Common L3 measurement scenarios include: cell reselection measurements in RRC_IDLE / Inactive states, and intra-frequency / inter-frequency measurements in RRC_Connected states. When the terminal only measures the currently serving cell, the measurement task is relatively simple because it does not need to measure multiple cells simultaneously. Therefore, the network does not need to adjust the measurement latency through a scaling factor, and the terminal can directly use the default latency metric TL3, which is the measurement latency metric for the corresponding omnidirectional antenna terminal.
[0113] Furthermore, in wireless communication networks, terminal devices may support directional antennas (such as beamforming antennas) or omnidirectional antennas. Directional antennas, through beamforming technology, can significantly improve signal reception quality. When a terminal device only measures the current serving cell, it does not need to measure multiple cells or multiple frequency points, and therefore does not need to frequently adjust the beam direction. Due to the simplicity of the measurement task, the scheduling limitations imposed by neighboring cell measurements, such as the inability to transmit or receive data during measurement, no longer apply. For example, for L3 RRC_Connected state intra / inter-frequency measurements, the terminal needs to perform intra-frequency or inter-frequency measurements to support handover, carrier aggregation, and other functions. If the terminal only measures the current serving cell, it does not need to consider neighboring cell measurement tasks, and therefore the scheduling limitations imposed by directional antennas no longer apply.
[0114] Based on the above analysis, when the first information indicates that the terminal device does not need to perform neighbor cell measurements, this embodiment further optimizes the measurement process related to the L3 measurement delay index. In this case, the scaling factor needs to be applied to the L3 measurement delay index, but the scheduling limitations imposed by the directional antenna are still not applicable. Referring to Figure 2, which is another flowchart of the first measurement method provided in this embodiment, the method is applied to the terminal device and further includes:
[0115] S13, Receive the second information sent by the network device;
[0116] S14. Configure the measurement delay index when performing measurements at the specific frequency point based on the second information.
[0117] For example, the second information is the first scaling factor N2. For L3 measurement delay metrics, such as cell reselection measurements in RRC_IDLE / Inactive state and intra / inter-frequency measurements in RRC_Connected state, the delay metric when the first scaling factor N2 is applied to the measurement delay metric is TL3.
[0118] In this embodiment of the application, considering that the measurement reporting cycle of the current serving cell is shortened accordingly, the network device can send the second information to configure the measurement latency index of the terminal device during measurement, thereby relaxing the measurement latency of the serving cell. For the serving cell, under the same measurement cycle as the traditional measurement scheme, the system throughput can be improved, and additional energy-saving gains can be brought to the terminal.
[0119] Referring to Figure 3, which is a flowchart of a second measurement method provided in an embodiment of this application, the second measurement method is applied to a network device and includes:
