Description

Neighbor cell measurement method and related device
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a neighbor cell measurement method and a related device.
Background
Currently, in a New Radio (NR) system, a network device may configure one or more GAPs (GAPs), also called measurement GAPs, for terminal devices, where one GAP is associated with one or more frequencies to be measured. When the terminal equipment determines that one or more time slots after the current moment are configured as GAPs, communication with a serving cell is interrupted, and the frequency is switched to an inter-frequency or inter-system frequency to be measured so as to execute inter-frequency neighbor cell measurement or inter-system neighbor cell measurement. When the duration of the GAP is over, the terminal device switches the frequency to the frequency of the serving cell so as to communicate with the serving cell.
It can be seen that when a terminal device is configured with one or more GAPs, it may cause multiple interruptions in data transmission in the serving cell, and it cannot be guaranteed that part of the data/signaling is transmitted in time.
Disclosure of Invention
The embodiment of the application provides a neighbor cell measurement method and a related device, which can ensure that partial data/signaling is transmitted in time.
In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a neighbor cell measurement method, where the method is applied to a terminal device configured with one or more GAPs GAP. The method comprises the following steps: the terminal device determines the priority of the first GAP. The terminal equipment determines to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the first GAP or determines to communicate during the first GAP according to the priority of the first GAP. The first GAP is any GAP of one or more GAPs.
It can be seen that the terminal device does not measure the neighbor to be measured in each GAP, but determines whether to measure the neighbor to be measured with the GAP or communicate during the GAP according to the priority of any GAP. Communication during the GAP refers to transceiving data/signaling to be transmitted during the GAP. Therefore, when the priority of the GAP is lower, the terminal equipment can ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP is transmitted in time.
In an alternative embodiment, the determining, by the terminal device, to measure the neighbor to be measured with the first GAP according to the priority of the first GAP, or to communicate during the first GAP, includes: and when the priority of the first GAP is high, the terminal equipment determines to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the first GAP.
When the priority of any GAP is high, the terminal equipment indicates that the priority of neighbor cell measurement in the GAP is higher than the priority of other tasks, so that the terminal equipment determines to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the GAP, and timely measurement of the neighbor cell to be measured in the GAP is ensured.
In another alternative embodiment, when the network device configures the first threshold for the first GAP of the terminal device, or when the network device and the terminal device predefine the first threshold corresponding to the first GAP, the terminal device determines, according to the priority of the first GAP, to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the first GAP, or communicates during the first GAP, including: and when the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than or equal to a first threshold corresponding to the first GAP, the terminal equipment determines to transmit the data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP.
When the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than or equal to a first threshold corresponding to the first GAP, the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher, so that the terminal equipment determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted is transmitted in the first GAP period, and the data/signaling to be transmitted with high priority in the first GAP can be ensured to be transmitted in time.
In yet another alternative embodiment, the determining, by the terminal device, to measure the neighbor to be measured using the first GAP according to the priority of the first GAP, or to communicate during the first GAP, includes: the terminal device determines to transmit data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP when the priority of the first GAP is low and there is data/signaling to be transmitted within the first GAP.
When the priority of the first GAP is low, the priority of measuring the neighbor cell to be measured in the first GAP is lower, so that when the terminal equipment is in the first GAP and data/signaling to be transmitted, the data/signaling to be transmitted is determined to be transmitted in the first GAP period, and the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP can be ensured to be transmitted in time.
In yet another alternative embodiment, when the network device configures the second threshold for the terminal device, the terminal device determines, according to the priority of the first GAP, to measure the neighbor cell to be measured with the first GAP, or to communicate during the first GAP, including: the priority of the terminal device in the first GAP is low, and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than a second threshold value, so that the data/signaling to be transmitted is determined to be transmitted during the first GAP.
In this manner, when the priority of the first GAP is low, it indicates that the priority of the neighbor cell measurement to be measured by using the first GAP is low. Therefore, the priority of the terminal device in the first GAP is low, and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than the second threshold, so that the data/signaling to be transmitted is determined to be transmitted during the first GAP without neighbor cell measurement, and the data/signaling to be transmitted with higher priority is ensured to be transmitted in time.
In an alternative embodiment, the terminal device determines, according to the priority of the first GAP, to measure the neighbor to be measured with the first GAP, or before communicating during the first GAP, the terminal device may further determine, before the first point in time, whether there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP. And when the terminal equipment determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted exists in the first GAP before the first time point, determining the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted. Wherein the first point in time is the point in time before the arrival of the first GAP.
It can be seen that the terminal device may also determine whether there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP before the first point in time before the first GAP arrives, so that when the terminal device determines that there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP before the first point in time, it determines the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted, so that the terminal device may determine whether to use the first GAP to measure the neighbor cell to be measured or to communicate during the first GAP in combination with the priority of the first GAP and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted.
In an alternative embodiment, the terminal device determines the priority of the first GAP, including: the terminal device receives configuration information from the network device, the configuration information including a priority of each of the one or more GAPs. And the terminal equipment determines the priority of the first GAP according to the configuration information. It can be seen that the terminal device may determine the priority of any GAP based on the priority of one or more GAPs configured by the network device.
In another alternative embodiment, the terminal device determines the priority of the first GAP, including: when the first GAP is used for carrying out measurement event evaluation on the adjacent cells with the same frequency as the serving cell but different subcarriers, or used for carrying out measurement event evaluation on the adjacent cells with different frequencies as the serving cell, the terminal equipment determines the priority of the first GAP as high priority; and the terminal equipment determines the priority of the first GAP as low priority when the first GAP is used for periodically measuring the adjacent cells with different frequencies from the current service cell or used for measuring the adjacent cells of different systems from the current system.
The terminal device may also determine the priority of the first GAP according to the neighbor cell type and the measurement report type measured by the first GAP. The measurement report type comprises two types, namely a measurement report triggering type when a measurement event triggering condition is met and a measurement report triggering type when a periodic report condition is met.
Therefore, the terminal equipment can set the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured in time as high priority, so as to ensure that the terminal equipment uses the GAP with higher priority to perform neighbor cell measurement preferentially; and setting the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured which does not need to be measured in time as low priority so as to ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP with low priority is transmitted in time.
In an alternative embodiment, when there is an overlap in the plurality of GAPs, the first GAP is the highest priority GAP in the plurality of overlapping GAPs. That is, when there is an overlap between the GAPs, the GAP used (or determined) by the terminal device is the GAP with the highest priority among the GAPs overlapped, so that it is advantageous to use the GAP with the highest priority to determine whether to measure the neighbor to be measured with the GAP with the highest priority or to communicate during the GAP with the highest priority.
In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application further provides a neighbor cell measurement method, where the method is applied to a network device. The method comprises the following steps: the network device determines configuration information and transmits the configuration information to the terminal device. The configuration information includes a priority of each GAP of the one or more GAP GAPs, the priority of each GAP being determined based on a neighbor type to be measured and a measurement report type within the GAP.
The measurement report type comprises two types, namely a measurement report triggering type when a measurement event triggering condition is met and a measurement report triggering type when a periodic report condition is met.
It can be seen that the network device configures the priority of each GAP for the terminal device, so that it is beneficial for the terminal device to determine whether to use the GAP to measure the neighbor to be measured or to communicate during the GAP according to the priority of each GAP. And further, when the priority of the GAP is lower, the terminal equipment can ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP is transmitted in time.
In an alternative embodiment, the priority of the first GAP is high when the first GAP is used for evaluating measurement events of neighboring cells with the same frequency as the serving cell but different subcarriers, or when the first GAP is used for evaluating measurement events of neighboring cells with different frequencies from the serving cell; the first GAP is used for performing periodic measurement on a neighboring cell with different frequency from the current serving cell or performing neighboring cell measurement on a different system with different current system, and the priority of the first GAP is low. Wherein the first GAP is any GAP of the one or more GAPs.
It can be seen that the network device determines the priority of each GAP based on the neighbor type and measurement report type measured by that GAP. Therefore, the network equipment can set the GAP adopted for the neighbor cell to be measured in time as high priority, so as to ensure that the terminal equipment uses the GAP with higher priority to perform neighbor cell measurement preferentially; and setting the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured which does not need to be measured in time as low priority so as to ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP with low priority is transmitted in time.

Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application.
The communication system according to the present application is shown in fig. 1, and the communication system may include, but is not limited to, one network device and one terminal device, and the number and form of devices shown in fig. 1 are used as examples and are not limited to the embodiments of the present application, and in practical application, more than one network device and more than one terminal device may be included. The communication system shown in fig. 1 is illustrated by taking one network device 101 and one terminal device 102 as an example, where the network device 101 may provide network services for the terminal device 102.
The terminal device in the embodiments of the present application may also be referred to as a terminal, and may refer to various types of User Equipment (UE), an access terminal, a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a Mobile Station (MS), a remote station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a user terminal, a wireless communication device, a user agent, or a user equipment. The terminal device may also be a cellular telephone, a cordless telephone, a session initiation protocol (session initiation protocol, SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (wireless local loop, WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), a handheld device with wireless communication capabilities, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, an in-vehicle device, a wearable device, a terminal device in a fifth Generation (5 th-Generation, 5G) mobile communication network or a terminal device in a future evolved public land mobile communication network (public land mobile network, PLMN), etc., as the embodiments of the present application are not limited in this regard.
In the present application, the network device is a physical entity connected to the network, where the network device may be a base station or a core network element, and the base station may be a 5G base station (gNB), and the network device may also be a network device in a subsequent evolution communication system.
The present application is applicable to a 5G communication system, a fourth generation (4th Generation,4G) communication system, a third generation (3th Generation,3G) communication system, and various future communication systems, such as a sixth generation (6th Generation,6G) communication system, a seventh generation (7th Generation,7G) communication system, and the like, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.
In wireless communication, the terminal equipment needs to measure the same-frequency adjacent cells or different-system cells so as to meet the mobility requirement of the terminal equipment. The terminal device does not need GAP (GAP) when measuring the same-frequency neighbor cell, and GAP is needed when measuring the different-frequency neighbor cell or the different-system neighbor cell, and the GAP is also called measuring GAP. In an alternative embodiment, the network device requests the terminal device to report whether GAPs are needed when measuring neighbors of different frequency bands through radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) signaling. Based on the current working frequency point and self-capability, the terminal equipment reports the needed GAP to the network equipment when measuring the neighbor time of which frequency bands. The network device configures the GAP for the frequency band of the terminal device requiring the GAP based on the reporting condition of the terminal device. In another alternative embodiment, the network device configures GAPs directly for the terminal device when performing inter-frequency measurements or inter-system measurements.
As shown in fig. 2, when a certain time domain resource is configured as a GAP, the terminal device cannot communicate with the serving cell during the GAP, and the terminal device needs to switch the frequency to the target frequency to measure the neighbor cell using the GAP on the target frequency. When the GAP is finished, the terminal device switches the target frequency to the frequency of the serving cell, so as to communicate with the serving cell.
Currently, network devices may configure terminal devices with one or more GAPs, each GAP associated with one or more frequencies to be measured. The terminal device will interrupt service with the serving cell during each GAP and, at the end of each GAP, switch back to the frequency of the serving cell to communicate with the serving cell. Therefore, the data transmission of the terminal device in the service cell is interrupted for a plurality of times, and the timely transmission of part of data/signaling cannot be ensured.
The embodiment of the application provides a neighbor cell measurement method 100. The method is applied to the terminal equipment provided with one or more GAPs GAPs. In the method, the terminal device determines the priority of the first GAP. The terminal equipment determines to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the first GAP or communicate during the first GAP according to the priority of the first GAP. The first GAP is any GAP of one or more GAPs. The terminal device does not measure the neighbor to be measured in each GAP, but determines whether to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the GAP or communicate during the GAP according to the priority of any GAP. Communication during the GAP refers to transceiving data/signaling to be transmitted during the GAP. Therefore, when the priority of the GAP is lower, the terminal equipment can ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP is transmitted in time.
Based on the above description, the embodiment of the present application proposes a neighbor cell measurement method 100 as shown in fig. 3, where the method is applied to a terminal device configured with one or more GAPs, and the method may include S301-S302:
s301. the terminal device determines the priority of a first GAP, which is any GAP of the one or more GAPs.
In this embodiment, the determining, by the terminal device, the priority of the first GAP includes but is not limited to the following two embodiments:
1. the terminal device determines the priority of the first GAP based on configuration information from the network device, the configuration information including the priority of each of the one or more GAPs.
It will be appreciated that when the network device configures the terminal device with one or more GAPs, the network device determines configuration information including a priority of each GAP of the one or more GAPs, the priority of each GAP being determined based on a neighbor type to be measured within the GAP and a measurement report type. That is, when the network device configures one or more GAPs for the terminal device, the network device may configure a priority for each GAP of the terminal device or set a uniform priority through the configuration information. Thus, the network device transmits the configuration information to the terminal device, and the terminal device receives the configuration information from the network device. And then the terminal equipment determines the priority of the first GAP in the one or more GAPs according to the configuration information, and the priority of any GAP can be determined.
In an alternative embodiment, the network device determines that the priority of the first GAP is high when the first GAP is used for performing measurement event evaluation on a neighboring cell with the same frequency as the serving cell but different subcarriers, or for performing measurement event evaluation on a neighboring cell with the different frequency from the serving cell. The measurement event evaluation comprises the measurement event type, the measurement event triggering condition and other configurations.
In another alternative embodiment, the network device determines the priority of the first GAP to be a low priority when the first GAP is used for performing periodic measurement on a neighboring cell with a frequency different from the current serving cell or for performing neighboring cell measurement on a different system from the current system.
That is, the network device may determine the priority of the first GAP according to the measured neighbor cell type and the measured report type of the first GAP, so that the priority of the first GAP is different when the terminal device uses different first GAPs to perform different neighbor cell measurement events.
In the mode, the network equipment can set the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured in time as high priority so as to ensure that the terminal equipment uses the GAP with higher priority to perform neighbor cell measurement preferentially; and setting the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured which does not need to be measured in time as low priority so as to ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP with low priority is transmitted in time.
The measurements of the plurality of frequency points configured by the network device for the terminal device include, for example, co-frequency neighbor measurements, inter-frequency neighbor measurements, and inter-system neighbor measurements. The frequency point where the serving cell is located is F1. The network equipment configures GAP1 for the measurement of the different-frequency neighbor cell with the same frequency F1 and different subcarriers; GAP2 is configured for the same system frequency bands F2 and F3, and measurement events A4 or A5, etc. are configured for both F2 and F3; a periodic measurement (periodic reportconfig) is configured for the system different frequency F4, and the measurement GAP of this F4 is GAP3; neighbor measurements on frequency F5 are configured for a different system (a system different from the current system), and the measurement GAP is GAP4. The parameters of GAP1-GAP4 may be different or partially the same. Such as different periods for each GAP, different starting positions for each GAP, different lengths for each GAP, etc.
Thus, the network device configures the priorities of GAP1 and GAP2 to be high, configures the priorities of GAP3 and GAP4 to be low, and informs the terminal device of the priorities of GAP1 to GAP4 through configuration information, so that the terminal device determines the priority of any GAP of GAP1 to GAP4 according to the configuration information.
In this manner, the network device configures a priority for each GAP of the one or more GAPs, which may reduce the capability requirements for the terminal device.
2. And the terminal equipment determines the priority of the first GAP according to the neighbor cell type to be measured and the measurement report type in the first GAP.
The measurement report type comprises two types, namely a measurement report triggering type when a measurement event triggering condition is met and a measurement report triggering type when a periodic report condition is met.
In an alternative implementation manner, when the first GAP is used for performing measurement event evaluation on a neighboring cell with the same frequency as the serving cell but different subcarriers, or is used for performing measurement event evaluation on a neighboring cell with the different frequency as the serving cell, the terminal device determines that the priority of the first GAP is high.
In another alternative embodiment, the terminal device determines that the priority of the first GAP is a low priority when the first GAP is used for performing periodic measurement on a neighboring cell with a frequency different from the current serving cell or for performing neighboring cell measurement on a different system from the current system.
In the mode, the terminal equipment with stronger processing capability can determine the priority of each GAP according to the neighbor cell to be detected and the measurement report type in the first GAP by itself, thereby being beneficial to reducing signaling overhead.
In addition, the terminal equipment can set the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured in time as high priority by itself, so as to ensure that the terminal equipment uses the GAP with higher priority to perform neighbor cell measurement preferentially; and setting the GAP adopted by the neighbor cell to be measured which does not need to be measured in time as low priority so as to ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP with low priority is transmitted in time.
It can be seen that the network device may configure the priority of each GAP according to the neighbor measurement type and the measurement report type in each GAP of one or more GAPs, or the terminal device with relatively strong processing capability may determine the priority of each GAP according to the neighbor measurement type and the measurement report type in each GAP.
In an alternative embodiment, when there is an overlap between the GAPs, the first GAP is the highest priority GAP of the GAPs. The existence of overlapping GAPs means that the GAPs exist overlapping on time domain resources. That is, when there is an overlap in a plurality of GAPs, the GAP used (or determined) by the terminal device is the GAP of the highest priority among the overlapping GAPs. Thereby, the terminal equipment can use the GAP with the highest priority to determine whether to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the GAP with the highest priority or to communicate during the GAP with the highest priority.
Illustratively, GAPs where there is overlap in time domain resources include GAP1, GAP2, GAP3, and the priority of GAP3 is greater than the priority of GAP1, the priority of GAP1 is greater than the priority of GAP2, then the GAP used by the terminal device is GAP3, i.e., the first GAP is GAP3.
S302, the terminal equipment determines to measure a neighbor cell to be measured by using the first GAP or communicate during the first GAP according to the priority of the first GAP.
It can be understood that the terminal device measures the neighbor cell to be measured by using the first GAP means that: and the terminal equipment measures the neighbor cell to be measured configured by the first GAP by using the first GAP. For example, the first GAP is configured to measure the neighbor cell with the frequency F3, and then the terminal device measures the neighbor cell to be measured by using the first GAP means that: the terminal equipment measures the neighbor cell of the frequency F3 by using the first GAP.
The terminal device communicating during the first GAP means: the terminal device transmits and receives data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP, i.e. the terminal device receives data/signaling from the network device during the first GAP, or transmits data/signaling to the network device during the first GAP, i.e. the terminal device performs uplink communication or downlink communication with the network device.
In addition, the terminal device determines to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the first GAP according to the priority of the first GAP, or the communication during the first GAP has the following implementation modes:
in embodiment 1, when the priority of the first GAP is high, the terminal device determines to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the first GAP.
When the priority of any GAP is high, the terminal equipment indicates that the priority of neighbor cell measurement in the GAP is higher than the priority of other tasks, so that the terminal equipment determines to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the GAP, and timely measurement of the neighbor cell to be measured in the GAP is ensured.
Embodiment 2. When the network device configures a first threshold for the first GAP of the terminal device, or when the network device and the terminal device predefine a first threshold corresponding to the first GAP, the terminal device determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted is transmitted during the first GAP when the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than or equal to the first threshold corresponding to the first GAP.
Wherein, the terminal device transmits data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP refers to: the terminal device sends or receives data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP.
In this manner, the network device may not configure a priority for each GAP of the terminal device, and may directly configure a corresponding first threshold for a certain GAP. For example, the network device configures a first threshold for GAPs for periodic measurements of neighbors that are not the same frequency as the current serving cell, or GAPs for neighbor measurements of different systems that are not the same as the current system.
Optionally, the terminal device and the network device predefine a first threshold corresponding to a GAP.
And when the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than or equal to a first threshold corresponding to the first GAP, indicating that the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher. Therefore, the terminal equipment determines to transmit the data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP, does not carry out neighbor cell measurement, and can ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted with high priority in the first GAP is transmitted in time.
Embodiment 3. The terminal device determines to transmit data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP when the priority of the first GAP is low and there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP.
When the priority of the first GAP is low, the priority of measuring the neighbor cell to be measured in the first GAP is lower, so that when the terminal equipment is in the first GAP and the data/signaling to be transmitted exists, the data/signaling to be transmitted is determined to be transmitted in the first GAP period, neighbor cell measurement is not performed, and the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP can be ensured to be transmitted in time.
Embodiment 4. When the network device configures the terminal device with the second threshold, the priority of the terminal device in the first GAP is low, and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than the second threshold, it is determined that the data/signaling to be transmitted is transmitted during the first GAP.
In this manner, when the priority of the first GAP is low, it indicates that the priority of the neighbor cell measurement to be measured by using the first GAP is low. Therefore, the priority of the terminal device in the first GAP is low, and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP is higher than the second threshold, so that the data/signaling to be transmitted is determined to be transmitted during the first GAP without neighbor cell measurement, and the data/signaling to be transmitted with higher priority is ensured to be transmitted in time.
It can be seen that the terminal device can flexibly determine whether to measure the neighbor to be measured by using the first GAP or communicate during the first GAP in different manners according to the priority of the first GAP.
In an alternative embodiment, the terminal device determines, according to the priority of the first GAP, to measure the neighbor to be measured with the first GAP, or before communicating during the first GAP, the terminal device may further determine, before a first time point, whether there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP, where the first time point is a time point before the arrival of the first GAP. And when the terminal equipment determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted exists in the first GAP before the first time point, determining the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted.
Wherein the first point in time is a point in time before the arrival of the first GAP. The time interval between the first time point and the first GAP start time point may be a time interval preset by the terminal device and the network device using a protocol, for example, the time interval is predefined to be 1ms. The time interval between the first time point and the first GAP start time point may also be set by the network device according to the capability of reporting by the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device has a high processing capability, the network device sets the time interval to be small; when the terminal device has weak processing power, the network device sets the time interval to be large.
It can be seen that the terminal device may also determine whether there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP before the first point in time before the first GAP arrives, so that when the terminal device determines that there is data/signaling to be transmitted in the first GAP before the first point in time, it determines the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted, so that the terminal device may determine whether to use the first GAP to measure the neighbor cell to be measured or to communicate during the first GAP in combination with the priority of the first GAP and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted.
Illustratively, the terminal device receives downlink control information (downlink control information, DCI) before the first point in time, and learns that high priority data needs to be received during the first GAP, as indicated by the priority indicator in the DCI. Optionally, the terminal device receives the DCI of the uplink scheduling before the first time point, and the terminal device learns that there is uplink transmission during the first GAP through the DCI, and that the priority of the data of the current transmission is higher, then the terminal device performs data transmission during the first GAP of this time, and does not perform neighbor measurement.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4, the first time point is a time point before the GAP3 arrives and advanced by a certain time interval (for example, advanced time interval is 5 ms). If the terminal device determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted exists in the GAP3 before the first time point arrives, determining the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted, so as to determine to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the GAP3 according to the priority of the GAP3 and the priority of the data/signaling to be transmitted, or transmit the data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP. If the terminal determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted is transmitted during GAP3 according to the priority of GAP3, the terminal transmits the data/signaling to be transmitted during GAP 3. Alternatively, if GAP3 is periodic, the terminal device repeatedly performs the above operation during the next GAP3 to determine whether to transmit data/signaling to be transmitted during the next GAP3 or to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the next GAP 3.
Optionally, when the terminal device determines that the data/signaling to be transmitted exists in the first GAP after the first time point, the terminal device may determine whether to transmit the data/signaling to be transmitted during the first GAP or measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the first GAP.
In the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal device is configured with one or more GAPs, instead of measuring the neighbor cell to be measured in each GAP, it is determined whether to measure the neighbor cell to be measured by using the GAP or to communicate during the GAP according to the priority of any GAP. Communication during the GAP refers to transceiving data/signaling to be transmitted during the GAP. Therefore, when the priority of the GAP is lower, the terminal equipment can ensure that the data/signaling to be transmitted in the GAP is transmitted in time.
