Solution Overview

Problem

In mobile communication systems, existing methods for configuring measurement information for terminals lack efficiency in channel measurement and interference measurement, particularly in managing multiple CMR resource sets.

Innovation Solution

The method involves a terminal receiving configuration information from a network device, which includes a reference signal resource configuration with N CMR resource sets. The terminal then performs measurements based on this configuration to obtain channel state information.

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If the terminal performs measurements based on multiple CMR resource sets configured by the network device, then the efficiency of channel measurements is improved, but the complexity of managing and processing multiple resource sets increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemeasurement efficiencyVSAvoidresource set management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the measurement configuration into separate CMR resource sets, where each resource set contains specific reference signals for measurement. This segmentation allows the terminal to process multiple resource sets in an organized manner, improving measurement efficiency while maintaining manageable complexity through structured organization of measurement parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The network device performs preliminary configuration of multiple CMR resource sets before the terminal needs to perform measurements. The configuration information is prepared and sent in advance, including all necessary reference signal parameters and resource set definitions, so that the terminal can directly execute measurements without complex real-time configuration processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If the network device configures multiple CMR resource sets for the terminal, then the transmission efficiency is improved, but the amount of configuration information that needs to be transmitted increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoidconfiguration information overhead
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The configuration information structure is designed to be universal and reusable. The same configuration framework can accommodate multiple CMR resource sets using standardized parameter definitions and resource set templates, allowing efficient transmission of multiple configurations without proportionally increasing overhead, as the same information structures serve multiple measurement purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
