Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method performed by a
user equipment (UE) in a communication
system, comprising: receiving a third message from a
base station, wherein the third message comprises information related to an
event trigger, performing, by the UE, a first measurement based on the
event trigger within a first time, and transmitting, by the UE, an uplink
signal no later than a first time
delay, wherein the uplink
signal comprises information related to a result of the first measurement that the UE can transmit, and the first time
delay is defined as a time between a time point when the event triggering the measurement report occurs on an
air interface and when the UE starts to transmit the uplink
signal; wherein the first time
delay is less than the first time or Q times of the first time, and the first time is determined based on: information related to a frequency range of a serving
cell of the UE; information related to a
discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration of the UE; information related to the event for triggering the measurement report; and information related to a measurement reference signal (RS) of a serving beam.
