Description

Cell specific group measurement gap for carrier aggregation
Related application is quoted
This application claims entitled " the CELL SPEC MG " U.S. Provisional Patent Application submitted on April 9th, 2015 No.62/145,318 rights and interests, its content is by quoting overall be herein incorporated.
Technical field
This disclosure relates to measurement gap (measurement gap), special more particularly, to the cell for carrier aggregation Surely measurement gap is organized.
Background technology
Wireless mobile telecommunication technology is using various standards and agreement come in node (for example, transfer station) and wireless device (example Such as, mobile device) or user equipment (UE) between transmit data.Some wireless devices are in downlink (DL) transmission using just Hand over frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) to be communicated, and single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) is used in up-link (UL) transmission Communicated.Carrying out the standard of signal transmission and agreement using OFDM (OFDM) includes third generation partner program (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE), the standard of IEEE (IEEE) 802.16 (such as 802.16e, 802.16m, Industry is commonly referred to as WiMAX (World Interoperability for Microwave Access, WiMax)), the standards of IEEE 802.11 (industry is commonly referred to as WiFi).
In 3GPP radio access networks (RAN) LTE system, evolved universal terrestrial radio access network that node can be (E-UTRAN) node B (being also typically expressed as enode b, enhancement mode node B, eNodeB or eNB) and radio network controller (RNC) combination, itself and UE communication.Downlink (DL) transmission can be (for example, macrocell from access point/node or base station Equipment, eNodeB, eNB or other similar network equipment) to UE communication, and up-link (UL) transmission can be from wireless Communication of the equipment to node.In LTE, data can be sent via physical down link sharing channel (PDSCH) from eNodeB To UE.The data received can be confirmed using physical uplink control channel (PUCCH).Downlink and up-link Channel can use time division duplex (TDD) or FDD (FDD).
Because the developing for technology updated in radio communication will ensure that number of frequencies with higher demand, future network deployment Continue to increase.Number of cells and frequency needs will increase.Macrocell network equipment, the cell network equipment or with than grand Other such network equipments of the smaller coverage of cell equipment or lower power capability are (for example, small-sized eNB, small ENB, pico- eNB, femto eNB, family eNB (for example, HeNB)) dual company specified in 3GPP versions 12 can also be introduced into Connect feature.Therefore, user equipment (UE) (for example, the network equipment, mobile device, wireless device etc.) can connect simultaneously two or More multiple cell.
In order to promote to have the smooth network of high quality experience (QoE) to change (for example, cell switching, redirection, gravity treatment Deng), UE must have measurement peripheral cell and the ability of related data is provided to network.It there may be the network of many frequencies Under deployment scenario, some frequency carriers can be the Microcell of the back-to-back deployment in dense network deployment.However, for example due to Heavy load in macrocell, UE possibly can not be switched to these cells.The result big as network design density, according to UE position Put, UE possibly can not access these cells.If UE misses the chance of measurement cell frequency carrier, may not have can Backup network.In addition, if missing the measurement to macro-layer, then UE may not be switched over fast enough, and Calling may lose.Therefore, network for example can be by macrocell layer or particular network device (for example, one or more grand/slight Area's network equipment) normal performance group is assigned to, and by small cell layer or other particular network devices (for example, one or more Grand/cell network equipment) be assigned to reduce performance group so that UE will be performed in normal performance group more measurement and Less measurement is performed in performance group is reduced.The reason for introducing the two groups is that 3GPP versions 12 add load measured by UE Wave number amount.Because UE must measure more carrier waves, this brings more delays to one specific carriers of measurement.

Fig. 1 shows example, non-limiting wireless communications environment 100, and it can pass through base station network equipment (for example, eNB) Communication between UE promotes or enabled one or more measurement gaps to be configured to make LTE CA support increased number of frequency Carrier wave or carrier component.Wireless communications environment 100 can include multiple cordless communication networks, and each cordless communication network has phase The overlay area answered.The overlay area of some cordless communication networks can be with overlapping so that one or more mobile devices may be by Any one in the network equipment of covering area overlapping provides service.
Wireless communications environment 100 includes one or more cellular broadcast service devices or macrocell ND 102,104 (for example, base Stand, eNB, AP etc.), and one or more cell ND or AP are (for example, small eNB, micro- eNB, pico- eNB, person of outstanding talent pico- eNB, family Front yard eNB (HeNB) or Wi-Fi nodes) 106,108, they be deployed in wireless communications environment 100 and serve one or Multiple UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118.Each cordless communication network (for example, cellular broadcast service device 102a and 104 with And the cell network equipment 106,108) include joint operation with handle one or more UE equipment 110,112,114,116 or One or more network equipments (for example, set of network devices (ND)) of 118 network traffics.For example, macrocell ND 102, 104 can include be honeycomb enabled network devices a set of network devices.In another example, for example, the cell network equipment 106th, 108 can be included with a set of network devices of the overlay area operation smaller than macrocell network equipment 102 and 104.
Although the network equipment (ND) 106 and 108 is described as the cell network equipment, they can also be Wi-Fi Enabled device or WLAN (WLAN) equipment and macrocell network equipment, the cell network equipment or it can such as make Some the other types of ND operated for base station or eNB.Alternatively, one or more of macrocell ND 102 and 110 can be with Be the cell network equipment or for example using different frequency carrier operation different radio access technologies (RAT) other ND.
As illustrated, can each have corresponding coverage in one or more Wi-Fi access points 106,108 120、122.In addition, can each have in one or more cellular broadcast service devices or macrocell ND 102,104 is corresponding Coverage 124,126.It should be understood, however, that wireless communications environment 100 is not limited to the implementation.For example, can be in channel radio Believe any amount of AP or ND of the deployment with respective service region in environment 100.In addition, any amount of cellular broadcast service Device and corresponding coverage can also be deployed in wireless communications environment 100.
, can also be in wireless communications environment 100 although illustrate only five UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 Dispose any amount of UE equipment.UE equipment can for example comprising system, subscriber unit, subscriber station, movement station, mobile device, Wireless terminal, equipment, mobile device, distant station, remote terminal, access terminal, user terminal, terminal, Wireless Telecom Equipment, nothing Line communicator, user agent, user equipment or other ND part or all of function.Mobile device can be cell phone, Wireless phone, Session initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, smart phone, functional telephone, WLL (WLL) are stood, individual digital Assistant (PDA), laptop computer, handheld communication devices, handheld computing device, net book, tablet personal computer, satelline radio, Data card, wireless modem card and/or for another processing equipment by wireless system communication.In addition, UE equipment 110th, 112,114,116,118 can include the function as described in more fully herein, and can be additionally configured to dual link and set It is standby, wherein one or more UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 may be coupled to different RAT (for example, LTE and WLAN or Other combinations) more than one eNB or ND.
On the one hand, cellular broadcast service device or macrocell ND 102,104 and cell ND 106,108 can be (for example, logical Cross using corresponding measurement assembly come) monitor radio condition around it.For example, macrocell ND 102,204 and cell ND 106th, in 108 each can be by the network traffic load that performs network diagnosing process to determine on its corresponding network.As Example, during network monitoring process, macrocell ND 102,104, cell ND 106,108 or UE equipment 110,112,114, 116th, 118 its radio environment can be scanned to determine network performance statistics or network parameter (for example, frequency, SNR, signal matter Amount, QoS, QoE, load, congestion, signal rate etc.).It can measured by UE equipment or examined during network diagnosing process Survey and macrocell ND 102,104,106,108 associated various parameters of cell ND, such as, but not limited to frequency band, scrambler, Common signal channel pilot power, the bandwidth of each network, Universal Mobile Telecommunications System terrestrial wireless are electrically accessed received signal strength and referred to Show symbol and the frequency carrier priority for particular cell group (for example, normal group or reduction group) etc..
In exemplary scene, UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 can pass through macrocell ND 102,104 or slight One in area ND 106,108 is by network service.When user equipment (ue) device moves in wireless communications environment 100, Ge Geyong Family apparatus can be movable into and out the overlay area of associated service network.For example, when user passes through its respective UE During equipment transmission/reception communication, user may just walking, ride in an automobile, used during taking train, in densely populated urban area It is mobile around (for example, big city), wherein, movement may cause mobile device to be moved between various cordless communication networks. In this case, network traffics are routed to target ND (for example, switching) so as to continue communication (for example, avoiding by UE from service ND Call lose) or promote for load distribution unloading or be beneficial the purpose of other efficiency.However, with ND and to measure Frequency carrier quantity increase, UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 may be will be between the time measurement distributed Problem be present when each carrier wave is measured in gap.Because UE equipment 110,112,114,116,118 must measure increased number of load Ripple (such as 32 or more), these measurement gaps may introduce more delays.
In one example, if two frequency carriers of different frequency in network environment 100 be present (for example, LTE CA carrier component), wherein 40 milliseconds (ms) are measurement gaps.Because in the presence of two carrier waves, UE equipment 110,112, 114th, 116,118 operated on a carrier wave as service frequency, therefore only need to measure an additional carrier.So, UE (for example, UE110) will will be switched to another carrier wave to be measured thereon per 40ms.This means every 40ms (as measurement Gap receives the cycle (MGRP)) UE 110 will carry out one-shot measurement.It is each measurement sample in, measurement can include pair with frequency Any network measure of the network condition of band, the network equipment of operation (transmission) frequency band or channel condition correlation, such as signal are strong Degree, channel quality, ND loading condition or other measurements are (for example, Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), reference signal receive Quality (RSRQ), channel condition information (CSI), one or more CQIs (CQI) etc.).
However, if two additional carriers are present on network or the (communication in the communication range to be measured of UE equipment 110 Ground is couple to UE equipment 110), then three carrier waves are present on network, and data can be being carried out thereon including UE equipment 110 Downlink transmission and the service frequency carrier wave of communication.In the first measurement gap of gap sequence, UE equipment 110 can be such as Second frequency (service frequency is first frequency) is measured, and UE equipment 110 can be surveyed in second or subsequent measurement gap Measure the 3rd frequency of different carrier waves.This means UE equipment can only carry out one-shot measurement per 80ms.This is than only needing measurement one The delay of frequency carrier is longer, and wherein total delay is proportional to the carrier number that UE equipment 110 must measure.Therefore, 32 or more Multiple carrier waves will imply that the aperature delay of about 32 × 40ms (measurement gap repetition/reception cycle), to obtain one or more Individual different ND specific frequency or a sample of multiple frequencies (between frequency or in frequency).This longer delay may give UE Bring problem, UE possibly can not in enough or effective time frame measurement frequency.This longer delay is also possible to as follows Situation produces the problem of other:For example, which network switching or the condition based on UE equipment 110 determine in time enough Cell or cell ND are optimal.
On the one hand, network purpose therefore be enhancing belong to normal performance group carrier wave time measurement gap, normal performance Group can receive more measurements than reducing performance group.Which operator network can distribute or ND is a part for which group. For example, normal performance group can have macrocell ND 202 and 204, and reduce performance group can with cell ND 106, 108;But can be by any of the specified ND such as network or ND equipment (for example, macrocell ND 102) and associated frequency carrier Mixing.The ND or UE of network can be strengthened in various embodiments, carried with up to 32 components enabled for both DL and UL The carrier aggregation of ripple, and the further enabled frequency carrier that for example can once support five or more.Therefore, in addition to CA Or substitute CA, disclose CA two measurement performance groups, for CA various specific cell measurement gap patterns with CA Support to be up to 32 CC.
With reference to figure 2, examples of the instruction UE from eNB to the identifier (ID) of the pendulous frequency of carrier wave is shown.In LTE In radio resource (RRM) measurement in, UE perform measurement frequency carrier or frequency band can by measurement object (for example, MeasObject) configure.For example, measurement object ID maximum number maxObjectld 202 can be defined in the 3 gpp specifications.It is former On then, each radio frequency (RF) carrier wave configures single measurement object.In view of up to 32 CC designed for Rel-13CA, To reach the measurement object ID of target quantity in theory can increase to even more big value (for example, 64).On the other hand, by The maximum that data field 202 represents is still enough.It there may be when UE configures up to 32 CC, eNB can be from same frequency The measurement report on a CC in band obtains the certain situation for CC administrative purposes necessary informations.For example, work as carrier wave B and C During in identical frequency band, such scheme can at least be applied to carrier wave B and C polymerization.Correspondingly, it is possible to reduce required Measurement object ID, and currency will be enough.
ID 202 includes 32 CC in a manner of the measurement as specified object ID.When network increases measurement object to accommodate During more than 32 CC (for example, in data ID 204maxObject ID for specifying maximum integer 64), network can also configure More measurement objects are to be linked to measurement configuration (MeasGapConfig), wherein 32 may be not enough.Therefore, in order to adapt to The increase of carrier frequency quantity, eNB can be provided to the CC of about 64 or other quantity suggestion increase, and this is only one Example.For example, E-UTRAN, which can be applied, has such as data ID 202 or 204 or some other increased processors, with for example Ensure that it all includes being used for each service frequency with maxObjectID whenever UE receives measConfig measObject。
With reference to figure 3, show according to various embodiments and the example of the measurement gap pattern 300 with reference to figure 1.Measurement gap Pattern 300 can be for example with 40ms or 80ms measurement gap repetition/reception cycleoperation.For example, measurement gap pattern 300 can To be realized with individual server (service) frequency band, for being about 6ms using the constant clearance duration in each gap Single radio frequency (RF) chain (not shown) operation, it is supplied to UE equipment (for example, 114) by eNB (for example, ND 102).Example Such as, RF chains (for example, transtation mission circuit component/receiving circuit component) can include can cover the RF spectrum of various scopes one Or multiple processing components are (for example, wave filter, digital signal processor, amplifier or other groups for processing data signal Part).UE 114 is surveyed need not entering line frequency to specific frequency carrier wave (such as with measurement gap pattern 300) using all RF chains Amount.
As described above, the duration in each gap can be about 6ms, for example, it is applied by eNB (for example, ND102) Or it is configured to Fig. 1 UE equipment 114.There is no data transfer in this 6ms gap.However, UE equipment 114 can also have CA Ability, it means that UE equipment 114 can be operated once using more than one RF chains.Therefore, using more than one RF chains, UE equipment 114 using some RF possibly through measurement is used for and has data transfer simultaneously to increase throughput gain.Therefore, Provided for radio resources management (RRM) measurement very close to each other can bring up to 15% throughput gain (for example, 40ms MGRP), it is desirable to improve UE equipment performances, particularly in the case where CA has a large amount of CC.In order to realize this advantage, survey Amount gap is preferably only applied to related service cell (that is, the serving cell operated on the RF circuits of measurement correlated frequency).
Measurement gap pattern 300 (that is, 40ms MGRP or 80ms MGRP) can be by network configuration to UE.Network is considered UE once performs the measurement of a frequency band to meet measurement request, and all frequency bands during measurement gap will not have it is descending Link transmission.For example, network can have five available frequencies so that service band is that (it can be that UE exists to frequency band A 302 Promote the service frequency of the operation of connection thereon).For example, other frequency bands can include frequency band X 304, frequency band Y 306, frequency band Z 308 and frequency band L 310.Black gap represents not measuring in this place, dark shadow gaps (for example, gap 312) Represent that the measurement to frequency band can be performed in this place, and number does not occur in this place for shallower shadow gaps (for example, 314) instruction According to transmission.
Based on measurement gap pattern 300, UE equipment 114 can be held in the one 40 millisecond of gap 316 on frequency band X 304 Row measurement, and there is no data transfer on service band A 302.For example, each frequency band can represent the frequency band for DL or UL Or frequency range.Then in ensuing 40 milliseconds of measurement gap 318, UE equipment 114 can measure frequency band Y 306.With Afterwards, in the 3rd measurement gap 320, UE equipment 114 can measure frequency band Z 308 and then in the 4th measurement gap 322 Measure frequency band L 310.Then, UE equipment 114 can circulate to measure frequency band X 304, wherein measurement gap sequence again again Row can continuously repeat.
With reference to figure 4, example of the CA scenes 400 together with exemplary UE 114 is shown, wherein for RF chains 1 402, UE is set Standby 114 can for example cover frequency band X 304 and frequency band Y 306.Each RF chains 1 402 and RF chains 2 404 can include being used to believe The one or more assemblies of number process chain, for example, it can include wave filter and for incremental wave filter and further place Hardware of the reason for the RF signals of data.Because the RF chains that frequency can be very high therefore not all can be covered once All frequency bands.For example, RF chains 1 402 are only capable of covering frequency band X 304 (for example, for any of DL or UL as defined in 3GPP Frequency range) and frequency band Y 306.In addition, RF chains 2 404 are only capable of covering frequency band Z 308 and frequency band L 310, wherein each RF chains 1 402 and RF chains 2404 can cover some frequency bands or bandwidth of frequency spectrum.
Referring now to Figure 5, show another survey of the measurement gap configuration information element for version 13 or more highest version The example of clearance mode 500 is measured, to reduce measurement delay by one or more network equipments on network.With Fig. 3 survey As measuring clearance mode 300, the measurement in measurement gap pattern 500 postpones to carry out four measurements to obtain each frequency band (example Such as, frequency band X, Y, Z and L) measurement sample pattern occur.Therefore, per 160ms, UE equipment 114 can obtain each frequency band One sampling, it is considered as measurement delay.In measurement gap pattern 300, if UE equipment 114 can be for example using one Service frequency measurement frequency band X 304 and Y 306, while using second service frequency measurement frequency band Z and L.
In the first measurement gap 502, RF chains 1402 can be used to measure frequency band X 304 in UE equipment 114, and use RF Chain 2 404 come measure with frequency band Z308, and carry out measure simultaneously.Similarly, in the second measurement gap 504, UE equipment 114 Frequency band Y can be measured using RF chains 1402, and frequency band L 310 is measured with RF chains 2 404.The pattern is then for measurement Gap 508 and 510 and voluntarily repeat.Now in each measurement gap, UE equipment 114 can measure two frequency bands rather than one Frequency band, therefore measure delay and be cut in half, because UE equipment 114 can utilize two RF chains simultaneously.For example, in this feelings Lower measurement sample that all frequency bands are obtained using two measurement gaps of condition, without four measurement gaps.
However, network assume that UE equipment 114 only has a RF chain rather than two, and measurement request is also based only upon One RF chain, unless ensure abundant communication between the network equipment (for example, UE and eNB) otherwise its will not utilize network capabilities. And hence it is also possible to which gap configuration is added in 3GPP standards (TS 36.331), CA particular measurement moulds are based on further promotion The communication of formula measurement.Instead of using only existing zero-sum one (i.e. 40ms and 80ms), additional specifications as shown in Figure 6 can be added CA-gap0 602, it is a part for the measurement gap configuration (MeasGapConfig) on information element (IE) 600.
Fig. 6, which is shown, enables measurement gap pattern in ND (for example, (one or more) eNB and (one or more) UE measurement gap configuration or the MeasGapConfig example of (for example, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 8) are transmitted and realized between). Data slots (data slot) or the instructions of item CA-gap0 602 interval repetition period 604 (it can be 40ms and 80ms), with And for optional or extension in the future one or more standby (spare).In addition, MeasGapConfig IE CA-gap0 602 data item can also include measurement gap skew 606, and it indicates when gap starts to be used for further to measure.CA-gap0 602 further instruction frequency band measurement lists (bandMeasurementList) 608, it, which includes UE, should use the measurement gap Which measurement frequency band measured.For example, reducing performance group or normal performance group can be divided and be designated, also by using frequency Indicate to need some frequency bands that are frequent or all measuring with measurement list 608.
Clearance offsets (gapOffset) 602 describe gp0 values and can correspond to such as measurement gap repetition/reception cycle (MGRP)=40ms clearance mode Id " 0 " clearance offsets.Gp1 clearance offsets can correspond to MGRP=80ms gap The clearance offsets of pattern " 1 ".These clearance offsets patterns ID can be used for specifying the measurement gap pattern to be applied (such as in version 3 or more highest version specification defined in), for example, its (for example, via UE or eNB) provide for determine for example between ID Selection information.For example, ca-gap0 602 is included as based on the selected clearance mode repetition period (or MGRP) (gapRepetitionPeriod) or based on such as the measurement gap pattern repetition period defined in 3GPP specifications TS36.133 The gapOffset-r13 606 of gapOffset values.Finally, bandMeasurementList specify or instruction should use it is identical Gap period or MGRP measurement frequency band.
Alternatively, Fig. 7 shows the 3GPP versions for carrier aggregation (for example, CA-MeasGapConfig-r13ID) 700 This 13 compatible measurement configuration (MeasGapConfig) IE alternative solution.First option can be increased separately in existing IE One measurement gap (as provided in figure 6 above), although CA 700 new measurement gap configuration CA-MeasGapConfig- R13IE can be shown with least some contents similar with Fig. 6 IE 600.For example, the gap repetition period 702 can be 40ms and 80ms, and with the one or more standby for being used to extend optional or future.In addition, MeasGapConfig- R13IE can also include measurement gap skew 704, and it can indicate when gap starts to be used for further to measure, and be base In the selected clearance mode repetition period.Frequency band measurement list (bandMeasurementList) 706, which also includes UE, to be made Which measurement frequency band measured with the measurement gap or measurement gap pattern.
Fig. 8, which is shown, can enable to increase the network equipment (for example, (one or more) eNB and (one or more) UE another clearance mode 800 of the down link data efficiency between).As described above, the UE of service band is frequency band A+B 302 With 502.In addition to X 304 and Y 306, RF chains 1 402 (RF_1) also support service band A 302.Except Z 308 and L Outside 310, RF chains 2 404 (RF_2) also support service band B 502.Thus, for example UE equipment 114 can be between the first measurement To measure on frequency band X 304 and Z 308 simultaneously using both RF chains 1 402 and RF chains 2 404 in gap time slot 504.Class As, UE equipment 114 can also measure to frequency band Y 306 and L 310 simultaneously in the 3rd measurement gap time slot 508.Profit With identical measurement performance, UE equipment 114 now can be in the second measurement gap time slot 506 and the 4th measurement gap time slot 4 Promote or enable to carry out downlink transmission on frequency band A+B 302 and 502 in 510.
So, measurement gap pattern 800 can be used as the specific clearance modes of CA by the network equipment, with compared to other measurements Clearance mode (for example, as implied above) improves down link data efficiency.Therefore, as shown in the above Fig., network or ND can match somebody with somebody Put the data pattern similar with UE equipment 114.However, data can be sent down to UE by network during some clearance modes Equipment 114 is as the compromise of configuration, rather than allows UE equipment 114 to produce more measurements using RF chains.For example, come from eNB Or other network equipments or entity determine can based on such as network condition, for the request of resource needed most or state report Accuse, the postponing of reduction, increased data efficiency/transmission, or both combination.
Fig. 9, which is shown, can utilize above-mentioned two advantage (via one or more network equipments (for example, eNB 102, ND 14 or other ND) the increase of data efficiency/transmission and the reduction of delay) measurement gap pattern 900 another example.Previously Fig. 8 of discussion measurement gap pattern 800 increases data transfer, it is allowed to which data are between some DATA REASONING gaps by descending Link (such as every a measurement gap or measurement gap space).Measurement gap pattern 900 makes it possible to small―gap suture (minigap) or small―gap suture mode approach carries out data transmission, while it is to connect to keep the measurement to down link data and frequency band Continuous.
In measurement gap pattern 900, UE equipment 114 can for example indicate its frequency band that can be supported, while permitting Perhaps different RF chains have down link data, and therein trade off is to interrupt 902 and 904.For example, network, the network equipment 102 or Other network equipments can transmit what is substituted in measurement gap 504,506,508 and 510 with small―gap suture pattern and break period RF chains 1 or 2 (for example, RF chains 402 and 404).UE equipment 114 can be configured as grasping on service band A and B 302 and 502 Make.When UE equipment 114 for example using RF chains 1402 to measure frequency band X304 when, service band A 302 does not have data transfer.So And UE equipment 114 still can be in the case where using in the frequency acceptance band B of RF chains 2 404 with interruption 902 and 904 during RF is tuned Uplink data.
In each measurement gap 504,506,508 and 510, UE equipment 114 can with one frequency band of one-shot measurement (for example, X, Y, Z or L), it means that still there is UE equipment 114 an idle RF chain to be additionally operable to receive data.Therefore, if UE equipment 114 are carrying out CA, then what network can be done is covered in the available or idle RF chains that can be had by UE equipment 114 Or send data in corresponding frequency band.It is simultaneous due to measuring with data transfer, so in the presence of in about 1ms Disconnected, it represents that network will be unable to downloading data here so that Fig. 9 cross figure is square.Therefore, the quilt of measurement gap pattern 900 Referred to as small―gap suture pattern because when UE equipment 114 be tuned in RF chains when, if network sends data, can produce The interruption of the raw other frequency bands for interrupting data.In 6ms delay periods, network can only actually send 4ms data.Every It is the same situation to the remainder in figure in individual message gap.The idle RF of Web vector graphic UE equipment 114 sends data.
With reference now to Figure 10 and Figure 11, show for lE 1000 and 1100 additional standard modification or data set, so as to Such as enable Fig. 9 IE 900 small―gap suture configuration or measurement gap configuration.Such as.It can be submitted for example in TS 36.331 Change to realize that measurement gap configures.CA-gap0 1002 data slots or instruction include gapRepititionPeriod 1004th, gapOffset-r13 1006, service band 1008 and boolean (Boolean) small―gap suture 1010.If small―gap suture quilt Be arranged to true or effective, then network will send data by those idle RF, if be not set to it is true or effective, It will not carry out data transmission during those data link transmissions, and UE will be performed more to measure and prolonged with reducing measurement Late.
Figure 11 provides the alternative exemplary of the entirely different IE for small―gap suture measurement pattern, rather than modification 3GPP marks Existing IE in quasi- TS 36.331.
