Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a block diagram of a wireless communication system to which an embodiment of the present invention is applicable. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network device 12. The terminal 11 may also be referred to as a terminal Device or a User Equipment (UE), where the terminal 11 may be a Mobile phone, a Tablet Personal Computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a Laptop Computer (Laptop Computer), a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a Mobile Internet Device (MID), a Wearable Device (Wearable Device), or a vehicle-mounted Device, and the specific type of the terminal 11 is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. The network device 12 may be a Base Station or a core network, wherein the Base Station may be a 5G or later-version Base Station (e.g., a gNB, a 5G NR NB, etc.), or a Base Station in other communication systems (e.g., an eNB, a WLAN access point, or other access points, etc.), wherein the Base Station may be referred to as a node B, an evolved node B, an access point, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS), a radio Base Station, a radio Transceiver, a Basic Service Set (BSS), an Extended Service Set (ESS), a node B, an evolved node B (eNB), a home node B, a home evolved node B, a WLAN access point, a WiFi node, or some other suitable terminology in the field, as long as the same technical effect is achieved, the Base Station is not limited to a specific technical vocabulary, it should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, only the Base Station in the NR system is taken as an example, but does not limit the specific type of base station.

In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, the following description is made.

(1) Non-public networks (NPN).

Non-public networks are distinguished from public networks, and pointers to private networks have some restrictions on users. Each non-public network has its own identification information, such as NPN-ID, or CAG-ID, etc. The non-public network may only allow authorized partial UEs to access, and other UEs cannot access the non-public network. For example, when the authorization identification information of the non-public network exists in the authorization information (description) of the UE, the UE allows access to the network. After the UE accesses the network, the network side authenticates the UE to ensure that the UE is authorized by the non-public network.

The non-public network may allow only authorized UEs access or through network mode settings while allowing access to authorized and non-authorized UEs.

(2) UE mode.

For non-public networks, the UE may hold UE mode information in addition to possibly related UE capabilities, such as: the mode of "allowing to work in a non-public network only" and the mode of "allowing to work in a public network". If the UE is in "allowed to operate only in non-public networks" mode, the UE cannot access or operate in a public network. If the UE is in "allowed to operate in public network" mode, the UE may select one of the accesses between the public network and the non-public network.

It should be noted that the UE may change between modes "allowing only to operate in a non-public network" and "allowing to operate in a public network", or may only perform one of the modes without changing.

(3) Measurement configuration and handover commands.

The network side will send the measurement configuration information in a radio resource control RRC (connection) reconfiguration message. The handover command multiplexes RRC (connection) reconfiguration message. The UE is configured with parameters such as measurement frequency points, cells and the like through a network side, the UE executes measurement in the configuration, and initiates measurement report when specific conditions are met. The network side receives the measurement report and can be used for various purposes, such as handover decision, MDT receipt collection, etc.

(4) UE capabilities.

The UE capability information holds the UE's support capabilities for various characteristics. After the UE establishes connection with the network, the core network will issue the UE capability (mainly access stratum AS capability) information to the base station network side for storage and utilization, and if the core network does not store the UE capability, the base station sends a UE capability request to the UE, the UE feeds back to the base station, after the base station network side receives the UE capability, the base station network side stores and utilizes the UE on the one hand, and sends the UE capability request to the core network on the other hand, thereby facilitating the other base stations to subsequently request the UE capability to the core network. The "whether or not the UE supports the non-public network" of the UE may be one of the UE capability information (NPN capability).

At present, a terminal measures measurement frequency points configured on a network side, and unnecessary terminal power consumption and air interface signaling overhead are increased when the terminal is in a specific working mode.

As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides a frequency point configuration method, which is applied to a network device, and includes:

step 201: configuring measurement frequency point information, wherein the measurement frequency point information comprises measurement frequency points and indication information, and the indication information is used for indicating that each measurement frequency point is a non-public network measurement frequency point or a public network measurement frequency point.

The indication information may be preset bit indication information, for example, 1 bit indication information. And when the value of the indication information of the preset bit is a second value, for example false, the value is used for indicating that the measurement frequency point is a public network measurement frequency point.

Here, identification information, that is, a non-public network measurement frequency point or a public network measurement frequency point, is added for each measurement frequency point configured for the terminal, so that the terminal can accurately identify a corresponding frequency point, and only a part of frequency points configured for the network device are measured and reported.

Step 202: and sending the information of the measurement frequency point to a terminal.

Here, the information of the measurement frequency point is sent to the terminal, so that the terminal selects a corresponding frequency point to perform measurement according to the working mode of the terminal, and if the terminal working in the non-public network mode only performs measurement on the non-public network measurement frequency point, the measurement overhead of the terminal can be reduced, and the load of an interface or an air interface is reduced.

The frequency point configuration method of the embodiment of the invention configures measurement frequency point information, wherein the measurement frequency point information comprises measurement frequency points and indication information, and the indication information is used for indicating that each measurement frequency point is a non-public network measurement frequency point or a public network measurement frequency point; and sending the information of the measurement frequency points to a terminal, so that the terminal measures part of the frequency points in the measurement frequency points according to the working mode of the terminal, for example, the terminal in the working mode of the non-public network only measures the measurement frequency points of the non-public network, thereby reducing the measurement overhead of the terminal and lightening the load of an interface or an air interface.

Further, the configuring the measurement frequency point information includes:

And under the condition that the terminal does not have the non-public network capability, only configuring the measurement frequency point without configuring the indication information.

In the specific embodiment of the invention, the network equipment only configures the measurement frequency point information for the terminal with the non-public network capability, so that the signaling overhead can be saved.

Further, under the condition that the terminal has a non-public network capability, before configuring the measurement frequency point information, the method further includes:

Here, before configuring the measurement frequency point information, the network device may first acquire non-public network capability information of the terminal, and determine whether the indication information needs to be configured for the terminal according to the non-public network capability information.

As an optional implementation manner, the acquiring of the non-public network capability information of the terminal includes:

Here, when the non-public network capability information of the terminal indicates that the terminal has the non-public network capability, the source base station transmits a handover preparation message to the non-public network target base station, and carries the non-public network capability information of the terminal in the handover preparation message, and the non-public network target base station receives the handover preparation message transmitted by the source base station and configures the measurement frequency point information according to the non-public network capability information in the handover preparation message.

Based on this, the sending the measurement frequency point information to the terminal includes:

Here, the target base station may send the measurement frequency point information to the NPN-capable UE in a handover command based on the received non-public network capability information of the terminal.

As shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides a frequency point measurement method, which is applied to a terminal, and includes:

step 301: the method comprises the steps of obtaining measurement frequency point information, wherein the measurement frequency point information comprises measurement frequency points and indication information, and the indication information is used for indicating that each measurement frequency point is a non-public network measurement frequency point or a public network measurement frequency point.

Here, the network device adds identification information, that is, a non-public network measurement frequency point or a public network measurement frequency point, to each measurement frequency point configured for the terminal, and the terminal can accurately identify a corresponding frequency point according to the identification information and only perform measurement and report on a part of frequency points configured for the network device.

Step 302: and measuring the frequency point according to the measuring frequency point information and the working mode of the terminal.

Specifically, under the condition that the working mode of the terminal is a mode only allowing the terminal to work in a non-public network, the non-public network measurement frequency point is measured and reported, and the public network frequency point does not need to be measured, so that the power consumption of the terminal and the air interface signaling overhead are reduced.

The frequency point measuring method of the embodiment of the invention obtains the information of the measuring frequency points, wherein the information of the measuring frequency points comprises the measuring frequency points and the indicating information, and the indicating information is used for indicating that each measuring frequency point is a non-public network measuring frequency point or a public network measuring frequency point; and measuring the frequency points according to the information of the measuring frequency points and the working mode of the terminal, for example, the terminal in the working mode of the non-public network only measures the measuring frequency points of the non-public network, thereby reducing the measuring overhead of the terminal and lightening the load of an interface or an air interface.

Further, as an optional implementation manner, performing frequency point measurement according to the measurement frequency point information and the working mode of the terminal, includes:

Further, as another optional implementation manner, performing frequency point measurement according to the measurement frequency point information and the working mode of the terminal, includes:

In the specific embodiment of the invention, under the condition that the working mode of the terminal is a mode only allowing working in a non-public network, the public network measurement frequency point is deleted, the non-public network measurement frequency point is reserved, and the reserved non-public network measurement frequency point is measured and reported; or, under the condition that the working mode of the terminal is a mode only allowing the terminal to work in a non-public network, storing all the measurement frequency points in the measurement frequency point information, and only measuring and reporting the measurement frequency points of the non-public network.

Further, according to the measurement frequency point information and the working mode of the terminal, performing frequency point measurement, including:

The present invention will be described with reference to specific examples.

Example 1: and optimizing the measurement configuration.

This process, as shown in fig. 4, may include:

step 401: and the service base station configures the measurement frequency point and the indication information for the terminal with the non-public network capability.

Here, when the base station side issues measurement configuration for a UE with non-public network capability, it marks "whether a non-public network is available" for each measurement frequency point. For example, the frequency point 1 is a public network frequency point, the frequency point 2 is a non-public network frequency point, and the frequency point 3 is a non-public network frequency point.

Step 402: and the terminal stores the measurement configuration, optimizes the measurement and reports.

Specifically, the UE sets a mode parameter indicating whether the UE is allowed to operate in a Non-public network only in a Non-Access Stratum (NAS) layer, and after the AS layer (Access Stratum) of the UE acquires the parameter, the UE may be configured to optimize measurement configuration. After the UE receives the measurement configuration, if the UE is in a "only allowed to work in a non-public network" mode, the specific method for optimizing the actual measurement frequency point may be:

deleting public network measurement frequency points, only reserving non-public network measurement frequency points, and performing measurement reporting; or

And storing the measurement frequency point configurations transmitted by all networks, and only carrying out measurement reporting on the measurement frequency points of the non-public network.

Through optimization, the UE in the mode of 'only allowing the UE to work in the non-public network' only reports the measurement result of the frequency point related to the non-public network, after receiving the measurement result, the network side only sends switching preparation aiming at the target base station of the non-public network, and the network side does not initiate the switching preparation process to the base stations because the public network which the UE cannot access originally has no measurement result, so that on one hand, the air interface expense of the measurement report is saved, on the other hand, the interface expense of the switching preparation process is conveniently saved, and the switching time delay is indirectly shortened.

Example 2: and (4) transferring between nodes.

In the switching process, the target network side organizes the content of the switching command based on the information carried in the switching preparation message given by the source network side. The handover preparation message also carries NPN capability information of the UE.

The target base station can send optimized configuration measurement in a switching command to the NPN UE according to the capability information, namely, marking whether the frequency point is a non-public network or not for each frequency point. The frequency point labeling method and the subsequent UE side optimization method refer to embodiment one.

Example 3: mode change of the UE.

The UE's "non-public network" mode is typically maintained above the AS layer (typically the NAS layer). When the UE mode is changed, the NAS layer of the UE may notify the AS layer of the UE and report the UE to the network side.

For connected UEs, if a mode change occurs whether "only operation in a non-public network is allowed":

1) if the mode of only allowing to work in the non-public network is changed into the mode of allowing to work in the public network, and the measurement configuration frequency points of the public network are stored, the measurement and report of all the measurement frequency points in all the measurement configurations are started;

2) if the mode is changed from the mode of 'allowing to work in the public network' to the mode of 'only allowing to work in the non-public network', then:

deleting the frequency points marked as 'public networks', reserving only the frequency points marked as 'non-public networks', and measuring and reporting; or

Measurement configuration is not changed, but measurement reporting is carried out subsequently only for the frequency points marked as 'non-public networks';

through optimization, the UE which is changed into a mode of only allowing the UE to work in a non-public network to report the measurement result of the frequency point related to the non-public network only, after the network side receives the measurement result, the network side only sends switching preparation aiming at the target base station of the non-public network, and the network side does not initiate a switching preparation process to the base stations because the public network which the UE cannot access originally has no measurement result, so that on one hand, the air interface expense of the measurement report is saved, on the other hand, the interface expense of the switching preparation process is conveniently saved, and the switching time delay is indirectly shortened; and the UE changed to the mode of 'allowing the UE to work in the public network' recovers the measurement and report of the frequency points related to the public network and the non-public network at the same time, and after receiving the measurement result, the network side initiates a switching preparation process for all target base stations which can be accessed by the UE and meet the conditions.

In the embodiment of the invention, the UE performs the optimized measurement on the received measurement configuration according to the working mode of the UE, so that the measurement overhead of the UE can be reduced, and the interface/air interface load can be reduced.
