Detailed Description

The following description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be made clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present disclosure, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments that a person of ordinary skill in the art would obtain without making any inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

In all embodiments of the present disclosure, the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station fails, typically due to the presence of an obstacle between the terminal and the serving base station; in the 5G NR, particularly in the terahertz frequency band communication, a beam of the terminal communicating with the serving base station is easily blocked by an obstacle, so that a communication link is disabled. Of course, this is merely illustrative. Of course, the 5G NR is only one of many scenarios to which the embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto, and are applicable to any generation of communication technology.

Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating a measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The measurement transmitting method shown in this embodiment may be applied to a terminal, where the terminal may be used as a user equipment to communicate with a base station, and the base station includes, but is not limited to, a serving base station in a communication system such as a 4G base station, a 5G base station, and a 6G base station. The terminal comprises, but is not limited to, mobile phones, tablet computers, wearable devices and other electronic devices. In one embodiment, the base station may be a base station to which the subsequent measurement reception method is applicable.

As shown in fig. 1, the measurement transmission method may include the steps of:

In step S101, receiving a first probe signal transmitted by at least one communication device in response to the communication link with the serving base station not failing;

in step S102, a first measurement result is generated according to the first probe signal, and the first measurement result is sent to the serving base station.

In one embodiment, in order to select a suitable communication device, the terminal needs to receive a probe signal sent by the communication device, measure the probe signal, and send a measurement result obtained by the measurement to the serving base station, where the serving base station may select a suitable intermediate device according to the measurement result, and then communicate with the terminal through the selected communication device. The service base station refers to a base station to which the terminal is currently accessed.

In the related art, however, the reception of the probe signal transmitted from the intermediate device and the transmission of the measurement result of the probe signal to the serving base station are performed after the failure of the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station.

On the one hand, for the terminal, since the terminal does not determine which communication devices need to receive the probe signals sent by, it is necessary to receive and measure the probe signals sent by all the communication devices nearby, which is time-consuming.

On the other hand, for the serving base station, after receiving the measurement result, the serving base station needs to analyze the measurement result to select a suitable communication device, which also needs to consume some time.

In the two aspects, after the communication link fails, the terminal receives the probe signal sent by the intermediate device, and sends the measurement result of the probe signal to the service base station, and then establishes a new communication link for communication through the communication device selected by the service base station, which requires more time, and is easy to cause communication delay and affect the communication experience of the user.

In an embodiment, the terminal may detect the communication quality of the communication link of the serving base station, for example, detect the packet loss rate, the signal strength, etc. of the communication link, and further execute step S101 when the communication quality is lower than a preset value, for example, the packet loss rate is greater than the preset packet loss rate and/or the signal strength is less than the preset strength, and the communication link with the serving base station is not failed.

For example, the terminal receives the first detection signals sent by n (n is an integer greater than or equal to 1) communication devices, and may measure the n first detection signals respectively to obtain n first measurement results, and then send the n first measurement results to the serving base station.

According to the n first measurement results, the service base station can select one communication device from the n communication devices, and can communicate with the terminal through the selected communication device after the communication link between the service base station and the terminal is invalid.

According to the method, the terminal receives the first detection signal sent by the communication equipment before the communication link fails and sends the first measurement result to the service base station, so that after the communication link between the service base station and the terminal fails, the service base station can quickly select proper communication equipment to establish a new communication link to communicate with the terminal according to the received measurement result, the time required for establishing the new communication link is reduced, the communication time delay is reduced, and good communication experience of a user is ensured.

It should be noted that, the detection signals in all embodiments of the present disclosure, for example, the first detection signal, the second detection signal, the third detection signal, and the like, include, but are not limited to, signals such as a synchronization signal, a reference signal, and the like. Communication devices in all embodiments of the present disclosure, including but not limited to, a repeater (station), a relay node relay, an access point AP (Access Point), a transmitting and receiving node TRP (Transmission and Reception Point), and the like, may act as a relay. The time domain resources and/or frequency domain resources of the terminal receiving the first probe signal, the second probe signal may be configured by the serving base station.

In one embodiment, after the terminal sends the first measurement result to the serving base station before the communication link with the serving base station fails, the serving base station may not measure the probe signal after the communication link with the serving base station fails, and may select an appropriate communication device to establish a new communication link to communicate with the terminal according to the first measurement result.

In one embodiment, after the terminal sends the first measurement result to the serving base station before the communication link with the serving base station fails, after the communication link with the serving base station fails, the terminal may further measure the probe signal, send the measurement result obtained by the re-measurement to the serving base station, and the serving base station may select an appropriate communication device according to the measurement result obtained by the re-measurement to establish a new communication link to communicate with the terminal. For example, may be implemented based on the embodiment shown in fig. 2 below.

Fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the measurement transmitting method in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes:

in step S201, receiving a second probe signal transmitted by at least one candidate communication device of the at least one communication device in response to a failure of the communication link with the serving base station;

In step S202, a second measurement result is generated according to the second probe signal, and the second measurement result is sent to the serving base station through the at least one candidate communication device.

In one embodiment, the environment in which the terminal is located may change before and after the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station fails, for example, as the terminal moves, for example, as the object surrounding the terminal moves, which may result in a different communication device for the same communication device, for which a first measurement of a first probe signal is sent by the terminal before the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station fails, and for which a second probe signal and a second measurement are sent after the communication link with the serving base station fails.

The terminal in this embodiment may receive the second probe signal sent by the communication device after the communication link with the serving base station fails.

In one embodiment, the serving base station may select at least one candidate communication device from the at least one communication device according to the first measurement result after the communication link of the terminal fails, and further send an indication to the candidate communication device, so that the candidate communication device sends a second probe signal to the terminal. Of course, other embodiments of the present disclosure are possible, such as: at least one candidate communication device may be selected from the at least one communication device and a second probe signal may be transmitted through one of the candidate communication devices. Also for example: at least one candidate communication device may be selected from the at least one communication device and a second probe signal may be transmitted through a plurality of candidate communication devices therein; for example by each candidate communication device. For another example: at least one candidate communication device may be selected from the at least one communication device, and a second probe signal corresponding to the candidate communication device may be transmitted through each candidate communication device.

According to the method, the service base station can determine at least one communication device according to the first measurement result, and therefore the candidate communication device is indicated to send the second detection signal to the terminal in the determined communication device, so that the terminal can receive the second detection signals sent by fewer candidate communication devices, and the detection signals sent by all communication devices nearby the terminal are not needed to be received, and the time consumption of the terminal for determining the second measurement result is reduced.

In one embodiment, the form of the first measurement result may be different from or the same as the form of the second measurement result in the subsequent embodiment, for example, the first measurement result is determined according to the priority of the first detection signal, and the form of the priority of the first detection signal may be different from or the same as the form of the priority of the second detection signal in the subsequent embodiment.

It should be noted that the first probe signal and the second probe signal are not specific to a certain or a certain probe signal, but are used to distinguish between a probe signal (i.e., the first probe signal) sent by the communication device before the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station fails, and a probe signal (i.e., the second probe signal) sent by the communication device after the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station fails.

In one embodiment, after the terminal receives the second probe signal, a second measurement result may be generated according to the second probe signal, where the number of candidate communication devices may be one or more, for example, m (m is an integer greater than or equal to 1), the terminal may receive the m second probe signals, generate m second measurement results, and send the m second measurement results to the serving base station, for example, the i (1+.i+.m) th second measurement result is sent to the serving base station through the i th candidate communication device, so that the serving base station determines that an appropriate communication device in the candidate communication devices establishes a new communication link with the terminal according to the second measurement results. Of course, the m second measurement results in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be sent to the serving base station through the same signaling or more than one signaling, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.

Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating yet another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the generating a second measurement result according to the second probe signal includes:

in step S301, determining a priority of a second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device;

In step S302, the second measurement result is generated according to the priority.

In an embodiment, the second measurement result generated according to the second probe signal may be generated according to the priority of the second probe signal, for example, for the received second probe signal, the priority of the second probe signal may be determined first, and then the priorities may be ordered to generate the second measurement result, or the second probe signal with the highest priority may be used as the second measurement result. In another embodiment, the second measurement result generated according to the second probe signal may be generated according to the priority of the candidate communication device, for example, for the received second probe signal, the priority of the corresponding candidate communication device may be determined first, and then the priority of the candidate communication device is ordered to generate the second measurement result, or the second probe signal with the highest priority is used as the second measurement result.

The manner in which the priority of the second probe signal is determined may be selected as desired, and is specifically described in the following embodiments.

Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating yet another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the determining the priority of the second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device includes:

In step S401, the priority is determined according to the signal strength of the second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device and/or according to the angle between the beam communicating with the candidate communication device and the beam communicating with the serving base station.

In one embodiment, the manner of determining the priority of the second probe signal may be selected according to the need, for example, the priority of the second probe signal may be determined according to the signal strength of the second probe signal, for example, the priority of the second probe signal may be determined according to the angle between the beam in which the terminal communicates with the candidate communication device and the beam in which the terminal communicates with the serving base station, for example, the priority of the second probe signal may be determined according to the signal strength of the second probe signal and the angle between the beam in which the terminal communicates with the candidate communication device and the beam in which the terminal communicates with the serving base station.

Fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating yet another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 5, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, determining the priority according to the signal strength of the second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device and/or according to an included angle between a beam communicating with the candidate communication device and a beam communicating with the serving base station includes:

In step S501, the priority is determined according to the signal strength of the second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device;

wherein the second detection signal with higher signal strength has higher priority.

In one embodiment, the terminal may determine the priority of the second probe signal according to the signal strength of the second probe signal, and specifically set the priority higher for the second probe signal with a higher signal strength.

The signal strength of the second sounding signal may be characterized by information such as RSRP (Reference Signal Receiving Power, reference signal received power) and RSRQ (Reference Signal Receiving Quality, reference signal received quality) of the second sounding signal.

In general, the better the communication quality between the candidate communication device corresponding to the second detection signal with the larger signal strength and the terminal is, the priority is determined according to the signal strength of the second detection signal, and the higher the priority is set for the second detection signal with the larger signal strength, then the signal strength of the second detection signal can be represented by the second measurement result generated according to the priority, so that the service base station can determine the relationship between the signal strengths of the second detection signals received by the terminal according to the second measurement result, so that the service base station can select the appropriate communication device corresponding to the second detection signal according to the relationship between the signal strengths of the second detection signals to establish communication connection with the terminal.

For example, the serving base station may select the communication device corresponding to the second probe signal with the highest priority to establish the communication connection and communicate with the terminal, and since the signal strength of the second probe signal with the highest priority is the highest, the corresponding communication device is the best for communicating with the terminal, so that the corresponding communication device is selected to establish the communication connection and communicate with the terminal, which is beneficial to ensuring the communication quality with the terminal.

Fig. 6A is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating yet another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 6A, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, determining the priority according to the signal strength of the second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device and/or according to an included angle between a beam communicating with the candidate communication device and a beam communicating with the serving base station includes:

in step S601, determining the priority according to an included angle between a beam communicating with the candidate communication device and a beam communicating with the serving base station;

the second detection signal priority sent by the communication equipment corresponding to the wave beam with the larger included angle is higher.

In one embodiment, the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station is disabled, generally due to the existence of an obstacle between the terminal and the serving base station, and in 5G NR, particularly when the terahertz frequency band is used for communication, the beam of the communication between the terminal and the serving base station is easily blocked by the obstacle, so that the communication link is disabled.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 6B, the candidate communication device includes at least a communication device a and a communication device B, the terminal communicates with the communication device a through a beam a, communicates with the communication device B through a beam B, communicates with the serving base station through a beam c, and has an angle β with respect to the beam a, and has an angle α, β > α with respect to the beam B.

In the communication process between the terminal and the serving base station, if the communication link between the terminal and the serving base station fails, the beam c is generally blocked due to an obstacle between the terminal and the serving base station, and in this case, the beam having a smaller included angle with the beam c is more likely to be blocked by the obstacle.

In this embodiment, the priority of the second detection signal sent by the communication device corresponding to the beam with the larger included angle is set to be higher, and then the second measurement result generated according to the priority can characterize the included angle, so that the serving base station can determine the size relationship between the included angles according to the second measurement result, and the serving base station can select the appropriate second detection signal corresponding communication device to establish communication connection and terminal communication according to the size relationship between the included angles.

For example, the serving base station may select the communication device corresponding to the second probe signal with the highest priority to establish the communication connection to communicate with the terminal, and since the beam of the communication device corresponding to the second probe signal with the highest priority and the included angle between the beam of the communication device and the beam of the communication device with the serving base station are the largest, the lower probability is blocked by the obstacle between the serving base station and the terminal, so that the serving base station selects the communication device to establish the communication connection to communicate with the terminal, for example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 6B, the communication device a may be selected to establish the communication connection to communicate with the terminal, which is beneficial for ensuring the communication quality with the terminal.

In one embodiment, the signal strength of the second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device may be determined first, and when there are a plurality of candidate communication devices, the signal strengths of the second probe signals sent by the candidate communication devices are the same, step S601 is performed for the plurality of candidate beams.

Fig. 7A is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating yet another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 7A, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, determining the priority according to the signal strength of the second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device and/or according to an included angle between a beam communicating with the candidate communication device and a beam communicating with the serving base station includes:

In step S701, determining an occlusion parameter of an obstacle;

in step S702, determining a shielding degree of the obstacle to the included angle according to the shielding parameter;

in step S703, determining the priority according to the occlusion degree;

the second detection signal priority sent by the communication equipment corresponding to the wave beam with the smaller shielding degree is higher.

In one embodiment, the terminal may determine the shielding parameters of the obstacle, where the shielding parameters include, but are not limited to, parameters that affect the shielding degree of the included angle by the position, the size, the shape, and the like of the obstacle, and the shielding parameters may be determined by the terminal itself, for example, sensed by a sensor provided on the terminal, or may be determined by other devices, and then sent to the terminal.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 7B, the candidate communication device includes at least a communication device a and a communication device B, the terminal communicates with the communication device a through a beam a, communicates with the communication device B through a beam B, communicates with the serving base station through a beam c, and has an angle β with respect to the beam a, and has an angle α with respect to the beam c.

After determining the position, size and shape of the obstacle, the terminal may determine the center of the obstacle according to the parameters such as the position, size and shape, and further determine the distances between the centers of the beam B and the beam a (the dashed line in the beam in the figure) and the center of the obstacle, where the smaller the distance is, the greater the blocked degree is, that is, the more likely the beam is blocked, for example, in fig. 7B, the greater the blocked degree of the beam B is, and the smaller the blocked degree of the beam a is.

The method for determining the shielding degree may be set according to need, and is not limited to the above method, and for example, the edge profile of the obstacle may be determined according to parameters such as position, size, shape, and the like, and then the shielding degree may be determined according to the relationship between the center of the beam and the edge profile.

In this embodiment, the priority of the second probe signal sent by the communication device corresponding to the beam with the smaller blocked degree is set to be higher, and then the blocked degree of the beam can be represented by the second measurement result generated according to the priority, so that the service base station can determine the blocked degree of the beam according to the second measurement result, and the service base station can select the appropriate second probe signal corresponding communication device according to the blocked degree of the beam to establish communication connection and terminal communication.

For example, the serving base station may select the communication device corresponding to the second probe signal with the highest priority to establish the communication connection to communicate with the terminal, and since the beam of the communication device corresponding to the second probe signal with the highest priority is blocked to the minimum extent, the beam is blocked by the obstacle between the serving base station and the terminal with a lower probability, so that the serving base station selects the communication device to establish the communication connection to communicate with the terminal, for example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 7B, the communication device a may be selected to establish the communication connection to communicate with the terminal, which is beneficial to ensuring the communication quality with the terminal.

In one embodiment, the signal strength of the second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device may be determined first, and when there are a plurality of candidate communication devices, the signal strengths of the second probe signals sent by the candidate communication devices are the same, step S701 is performed for the plurality of candidate beams.

Fig. 8 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating yet another measurement transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 8, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, determining the priority according to the signal strength of the second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device and/or according to an included angle between a beam communicating with the candidate communication device and a beam communicating with the serving base station includes:

In step S801, determining a first priority of a second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device according to a signal strength of the second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device;

in step S802, determining a second priority of a second probe signal sent by the candidate communication device according to an included angle between a beam communicated with the candidate communication device and a beam communicated with the serving base station; wherein, the execution sequence of the step S801 and the step S802 is not sequential;

in step S803, a target priority of the second probe signal transmitted by the candidate communication device is determined according to the first priority and the second priority.

In one embodiment, the first priority of the second probe signal may be determined according to the signal strength of the second probe signal, and the second priority of the second probe signal may be determined according to an angle between a beam in communication with the candidate communication device and a beam in communication with the serving base station, and the target priority of the second probe signal may be determined according to the first priority and the second priority, e.g. the first priority and the second priority may be weighted and summed, and the second measurement result may be generated according to the target priority and sent to the serving base station. Accordingly, the signal strength and the included angle can be comprehensively considered, and accuracy of determining the target priority is guaranteed.

As shown in fig. 9, in the measurement transmitting method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the generating the second measurement result according to the priority includes:

in step S901, ranking information of the second probe signal is generated according to the priority.

In one embodiment, after determining the priority of the second probe signals, the terminal may generate ranking information of the second probe signals according to the determined priority, for example, rank the second probe signals from high to low according to the priority, and then send the ranking information to the serving base station, so that the serving base station may determine a relationship between the second probe signals sent by each candidate communication device according to the ranking information, and further select an appropriate communication device according to the ranking information to establish a communication link to communicate with the terminal.
