The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

The technical scheme of the embodiment of the application can be applied to various communication systems, for example: LTE system, Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), fifth generation (5G) system, NR, and other new systems that have emerged with the development of technology. A communication system to which the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is applied is described below by way of example with reference to fig. 1.

As shown in fig. 1, a communication system to which the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is applied may include a terminal device 101 and a network device 102.

The terminal device 101 may be an electronic device that has wireless transceiving capability and can access the internet. Illustratively, a terminal device may also be referred to as a User Equipment (UE), terminal, access terminal, subscriber unit, subscriber station, mobile station, remote terminal, mobile device, user terminal, wireless communication device, user agent, or user equipment. The terminal device may be a Mobile Station (MS), a subscriber unit (subscriber unit), an unmanned aerial vehicle (drone), an internet of things (IoT) device, a Station (ST) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), a cellular phone (cellular phone), a smart phone (smartphone), a cordless phone, a wireless data card, a tablet, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a Wireless Local Loop (WLL) station, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) device, a laptop (laptop computer), a Machine Type Communication (MTC) terminal, a handheld device having a wireless communication function, a computing device, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle mounted device, a wearable smart device (also may be referred to as a wearable smart device). The terminal device may also be a terminal device in a next generation communication system, for example, a terminal device in a 5G system or a terminal device in a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) for future evolution, a terminal device in a New Radio (NR) system, and the like.

The network device 102 may be a device that communicates with the terminal device 101. Network device 102 may provide communication coverage for a particular geographic area and may communicate with terminal devices located within that coverage area. Network device 102 may specifically be a base station. The base stations may include various forms of base stations, such as: macro base stations, micro base stations (also referred to as small stations), relay stations, access points, etc. The method specifically comprises the following steps: an Access Point (AP) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) in a global system for mobile communications (GSM) or Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), a base station (NodeB, NB) in a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), an Evolved Node B (eNB, or eNodeB) in LTE, or a relay station or access point, or a base station in a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, and a next generation Node B (the next generation Node B, G NB) in a 5G system, or a base station in a future Evolved Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) network, and the like.

In the embodiment of the present application, the network device 102 provides a service for a cell, and the terminal device 101 communicates with the network device 102 through a transmission resource (for example, a frequency domain resource or a spectrum resource) used by the cell. A Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection may be established between network device 102 and terminal device 101. The switching of the RRC state of the terminal device 101 is controlled by the network device 102. The terminal apparatus 101 in the RRC connected state (RRC _ CINNECTED) releases the RRC connection and proceeds from the connected state to the IDLE state (RRC _ IDLE) after receiving an RRC release (RRCRelease) message sent by the network apparatus 102. The terminal device 101 in the RRC idle state may send an RRC connection recovery request (RRCResumeRequest) message to the network device 102, and the network device 102 sends an RRC recovery (RRCResume) message to the terminal device 101 after receiving the RRCResumeRequest message, where the RRC recovery message may include information that the network device 102 allocates resources for the terminal device 101. And the terminal equipment reconfigures the radio resources according to the RRC recovery message and enters a connection state from an idle state.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of a frequency point measurement method according to an embodiment of the present application. The frequency point measurement method may be applied to a CA scenario and a DC scenario, as shown in fig. 2, a terminal device sends an RRC recovery request (rrcresumererequest) to a network device, and the network device sends an RRC recovery (RRCResume) message to the terminal device, where the RRC recovery message may include information that the network device allocates resources to the terminal device. The terminal device reconfigures the wireless resource according to the RRC recovery message, enters a connection state from an idle state, and sends an RRC recovery complete (RRCRESUMeComplete) message to the network device. After entering a connection state from an idle state, the terminal device receives configuration information of the network device, wherein the configuration information includes information of at least one frequency point. The configuration information may be measConfig. The terminal equipment stores at least one frequency point information in the configuration information, and periodically measures the at least one frequency point to generate a measurement result (MeasurementReport). The configuration information is also configured with a reporting condition of the measurement result, and when the measurement result meets the reporting condition configured by the configuration information, the terminal equipment reports the generated measurement result to the network equipment. And the network equipment determines whether to add CA/DC to the terminal equipment or not according to the measurement result reported by the terminal equipment.

When the terminal equipment enters an idle state from a connection state, in order to accelerate the adding process of CA/DC when the terminal equipment subsequently enters the connection state, an advance measurement mechanism is introduced. Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of another frequency point measurement method according to an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 3, the network device sends an RRC release message to the terminal device, and the terminal device enters an idle state from a connected state after receiving the RRC release message. The RRC release (rrcreelease) message sent by the network device includes configuration information, where the configuration information includes information of at least one frequency point, i.e., an early measurement report frequency point (EMR frequency). The configuration information is used for indicating the terminal equipment to measure the at least one frequency point in an idle state. And after the terminal equipment enters an idle state from a connection state, the terminal equipment periodically measures the at least one frequency point to obtain a measurement result. Illustratively, when the terminal device needs to enter the connected state, the terminal device sends an RRC recovery request to the network device, and the network device sends an RRC recovery message to the terminal device, where the RRC recovery message may include information that the network device allocates resources for the terminal device. And the terminal equipment reconfigures the radio resources according to the RRC recovery message and enters a connection state from an idle state. When the terminal device enters the connection state from the idle state, the terminal device reports the obtained measurement result to the network device through an Information Element (IE) in the RRC recovery complete message, where the IE may be a measured result. And after receiving the measurement result, the network equipment determines whether to add CA/DC to the terminal equipment according to the measurement result.

In the frequency point measurement method shown in fig. 3, if the terminal device measures the at least one frequency point too frequently, energy consumption of the terminal device in an idle state may be increased, which is not favorable for power saving performance of the terminal device. If the terminal device measures the at least one frequency point too sparsely, when the terminal device enters a connection state from an idle state, the measurement result of a part of the reported measurement results may be a historical measurement result measured at a time far away from the current time, and the measurement result may not correctly reflect information such as signal strength and signal quality of the frequency point at the current time, so that the validity of the measurement result is low, and the network device may erroneously add a CA/DC to the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the period of the terminal device measuring the at least one frequency point is the same as the adjacent frequency point measurement period.

Illustratively, when Srxlev ≦ S_{nonIntraSearchP}Or Squal is less than or equal to S_{nonIntraSearchQ}In time, the terminal device should search and measure the inter-frequency high-priority neighbor, the inter-frequency same-priority neighbor, and the inter-frequency low-priority neighbor in preparation for possible cell reselection. Wherein Srxlev is terminal equipmentThe cell of the serving cell(s) selects a reception level value (Rx level value), i.e., the reception power of the serving cell. Square is the received signal quality value, S, of the serving cell_{nonIntraSearchP}Reception level value of pilot triggering threshold for cell reselection, S_{nonIntraSearchQ}Measuring the received signal quality value of the trigger threshold for pilot frequency of cell reselection, S above_{nonIntraSearchP}And S_{nonIntraSearchQ}Set by the third generation partnership project (3 GPP) protocol. In this case, the measurement period of the at least one frequency point is the same as the measurement period of the high-priority EUTRAN pilot frequency neighboring cell or the high-priority NR pilot frequency neighboring cell, and the measurement period of the high-priority EUTRAN pilot frequency neighboring cell or the high-priority NR pilot frequency neighboring cell is specified by a 3GPP protocol.

When Srxlev>S_{nonIntraSearchP}And Squal>S_{nonIntraSearchQ}And the terminal equipment periodically searches the high-priority frequency points. In this case, the measurement period of the terminal device for the at least one frequency point is the same as the search period of the high-priority frequency point, where the search period of the high-priority frequency point is specified by the 3GPP protocol.

The measurement period of the high-priority NR inter-frequency neighboring cell and the search period of the priority frequency point are determined according to a Discontinuous Reception (DRX) period. The terminal device periodically measures at least one frequency point, and specifically may be: and measuring one frequency point in the at least one frequency point in each DRX period in turn.

In one embodiment, when the screen of the terminal device is lighted, the at least one frequency point is measured in a centralized manner.

For example, the above centralized measurement may be understood as measuring the at least one frequency point within the capability range of the terminal device in the shortest time, that is, the terminal device measures the next frequency point immediately after completing the measurement of one frequency point. And the terminal equipment performs centralized measurement on the at least one frequency point within the time from the screen lighting moment of the terminal equipment to the RRC connection establishment (namely, the terminal equipment enters a connection state). Under the condition that the number of the at least one frequency point is small, the measurement of the at least one frequency point is completed from the moment when the screen of the terminal equipment is lightened to the time when the terminal equipment enters a connection state, so that the reported measurement result comprises the latest measurement result of the at least one frequency point, and the effectiveness of the measurement result is improved.

Fig. 4 shows a process of measuring the at least one frequency point by the terminal device, taking the number of the at least one frequency point as 3 as an example, after the terminal device enters an idle state, one frequency point is measured in a sleep period of each DRX cycle, and PO in fig. 4 is Paging Occasion (PO). In the first discontinuous reception cycle (DRX cycle 1), the measurement frequency point F1; during the second discontinuous reception cycle (DRX cycle 2), the measurement frequency point F2; during the third discontinuous reception cycle (DRX cycle 3), the frequency point F3 is measured. At least one frequency point is centrally measured during a period from a screen lighting time to an RRC connection setup time (T in fig. 4).

In the frequency point measurement method shown in fig. 3, when the number of the at least one frequency point is large, the measurement period of each frequency point is long, and all frequency points in the at least one frequency point cannot be measured within a time period from a screen lighting time of the terminal device to a time when the terminal device enters a connection state, so that validity of a reported measurement result is not good, and CA/DC addition may be mistakenly performed.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of another frequency point measurement method according to an embodiment of the present application. In order to improve the effectiveness of the measurement result, an embodiment of the present application provides another frequency point measurement method, as shown in fig. 5, the frequency point measurement method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps.

501, a terminal device receives configuration information sent by a network device, where the configuration information includes information of at least one frequency point.

Illustratively, the configuration information is included in the RRC release message. The network equipment sends RRC release information to the terminal equipment, so that the terminal equipment releases RRC connection and enters an idle state. The configuration information may be included in an IE of the RRC release message, and the IE may be specifically measiderlierlistnr/measiderlierlisteutra. The configuration information includes information of at least one frequency point, and is used for indicating the terminal device to measure the at least one frequency point in an idle state.

502, when the terminal device is in an idle state, the at least one frequency point is measured according to the sequence of the priority from high to low, and a measurement result is obtained.

And the terminal equipment enters an idle state after receiving the RRC release message sent by the network equipment. And in the idle state, the terminal equipment measures the at least one frequency point according to the sequence of the priority from high to low. The terminal device measures Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP) and Reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ) of each frequency point to obtain a measurement result.

Exemplarily, the terminal device measures the at least one frequency point in an idle state to obtain a measurement result. And when the network equipment enters the connection state, reporting the measurement result to the network equipment so that the network equipment can determine whether to add the CA/DC according to the measurement result. For example, when the traffic demand of the terminal device is large, the network device adds CA/DC to the terminal device, that is, adds an auxiliary cell or an auxiliary cell group to the terminal device, so as to meet the traffic demand of the terminal device. And the network equipment determines a proper cell according to the measurement result of the frequency point measurement reported by the terminal equipment, and adds the cell as an auxiliary cell of the terminal equipment. The suitable cell may be a cell in which RSRP and RSRQ in the measurement result of the corresponding frequency point are higher than a threshold value. It can be understood that, the higher the priority of the at least one frequency point is, the higher the possibility that the corresponding cell is successfully added as the secondary cell of the terminal device is. And under the condition that the time for the terminal equipment to enter the idle state is short and all the frequency points of the at least one frequency point cannot be measured in the idle state, preferentially measuring the frequency point with high priority, ensuring that the reported measurement result comprises the measurement result of the frequency point with high priority, and providing guarantee for the success rate of the subsequent possible CA/DC addition.

In this embodiment, the configuration information sent by the network device includes information of at least one frequency point, and is used to instruct the terminal device to measure the at least one frequency point in an idle state. The terminal equipment enters an idle state after receiving the configuration information sent by the network equipment, and measures at least one frequency point in the idle state according to the sequence of the priority from high to low. And preferentially measuring the frequency points with high priority, and ensuring that the obtained measurement result contains the measurement result of the frequency point with high priority, thereby improving the effectiveness of the measurement result.

In an embodiment, the step 502 of measuring the at least one frequency point according to the order of priority from high to low includes at least one of the following steps:

(11) and the terminal equipment performs centralized measurement on the at least one frequency point from high to low according to the priority at the moment of entering the idle state.

Illustratively, the centralized measurement may be understood as completing the measurement of the at least one frequency point within the capability range of the terminal device in the shortest time. And when the terminal equipment enters an idle state, measuring the at least one frequency point. After the terminal device completes the centralized measurement of the at least one frequency point, each frequency point in the at least one frequency point is periodically measured, which may specifically be: and the terminal equipment measures one frequency point in the at least one frequency point in each DRX period according to the priority sequence. For example, if the at least one frequency point includes F1, F2, and F3, and the priority order is F2, F1, and F3, the terminal device measures F2 in the first DRX cycle, measures F1 in the second DRX cycle, and measures F3 in the third DRX cycle. When the terminal equipment enters an idle state, the terminal equipment firstly carries out centralized measurement on the at least one frequency point, the measurement result obtained by the terminal equipment is ensured to contain the measurement result of each frequency point in the at least one frequency point, and the integrity of the measurement result is ensured.

(12) In a second time period, the terminal device periodically measures the at least one frequency point according to the sequence of the priority from high to low; and the measurement period of the at least one frequency point is determined by the discontinuous reception period.

Illustratively, when the terminal device enters an idle state, the terminal device firstly performs centralized measurement on the at least one frequency point according to a priority order. The start time of the second period of time may be a collective measurement completion time. After the terminal equipment completes the centralized measurement, the at least one frequency point is periodically measured according to the sequence of the priority from high to low. The measurement cycle of the at least one frequency point is determined by a discontinuous reception cycle DRX, which specifically comprises: one frequency point is measured during sleep for one DRX cycle.

In an embodiment, the starting time of the second time period may be a time when the terminal device performs an idle state. And when the terminal equipment enters an idle state, the terminal equipment periodically measures the at least one frequency point from high to low according to the priority.

(13) The terminal device does not measure a third frequency point in a first time period, wherein the third frequency point is a frequency point of which the time interval between the latest historical measurement time and the screen lighting time is smaller than a first threshold value in the at least one frequency point; the screen lighting time is a start time of the first time period.

Illustratively, the starting time of the first time period is a screen lighting time of the terminal device, and the ending time of the first time period is an RRC connection establishment time, that is, a time when the terminal device enters a connection state. The first threshold may be set by the terminal device, for example, the first threshold may be set to 0.1 second.

Illustratively, the terminal device determines, at a screen lighting time, a historical recent measurement time of each of the at least one frequency point in a measurement result before the screen lighting time, and if a third frequency point exists in the at least one frequency point, where a time interval between the historical recent measurement time and the screen lighting time is smaller than the first threshold, indicating that a measurement result of the third frequency point included in the measurement result before the screen lighting time is valid, the terminal device does not process the third frequency point in the first time period. And under the condition that a third frequency point exists in the at least one frequency point, the terminal equipment measures the rest frequency points except the third frequency point in the at least one frequency point according to the sequence of the priority from high to low in a first time period. And under the condition that the third frequency point does not exist in the at least one frequency point, the terminal equipment measures the at least one frequency point from high to low according to the priority.

Illustratively, the terminal device determines, at the screen lighting time, a frequency point at which the historical latest measurement time is closest to the screen lighting time among the measurement results at the screen lighting time. And if the time interval between the historical recent measurement time of the frequency point and the screen lighting time is smaller than the first threshold, the frequency point is not measured in a first time period, and the terminal equipment measures the rest frequency points except the frequency point in the at least one frequency point from high to low according to the priority. And if the time interval between the historical recent measurement time of the frequency point and the screen lighting time is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal equipment measures the at least one frequency point from high to low according to the priority.

Exemplarily, a measurement process of the terminal device for the at least one frequency point is shown in fig. 6. Fig. 6 illustrates a process of measuring frequency points by using 6 frequency points as an example, where priority orders of the 6 frequency points are F2, F5, F6, F1, F3, and F4 (F1, F3, and F4 are not shown in fig. 6). As shown in fig. 6, the terminal device performs centralized measurement on 6 frequency points at the time of entering the idle state, and obtains the measurement result of each frequency point. And then sequentially measuring F2, F5, F6, F1, F3 and F4 in the sleep period of each DRX cycle, namely measuring F2 in the sleep period of DRX cycle 1, measuring F5 in the sleep period of DRX cycle 2 and measuring F6 in the sleep period of DRX cycle 3, wherein the measuring processes of F1, F3 and F4 are not shown in figure 6. At the screen lighting time of the terminal device, a frequency point in the historical measurement result, at which the time interval between the latest measurement time and the screen lighting time is the smallest, is determined, i.e., F5 in fig. 6. If the time interval between the latest measurement time of the F5 and the screen lighting time is smaller than a first threshold, the F5 is not measured in the T time period, and the other 5 frequency points are measured in a concentrated manner according to the priority sequence; and if the time interval between the latest measurement time of the F5 and the screen lighting time is not less than a first threshold, performing centralized measurement on the 6 frequency points according to the priority sequence in the T time period. The first threshold may be 0.1 second, the start time of the T period is a screen lighting time, and the end time of the T period is an RRC connection establishment time. After the RRC connection is established, the terminal equipment enters a connection state, and the obtained measurement result is reported to the network equipment through the RRCRESUMeComplete message. The measurement result includes the latest measurement result of each frequency point, and exemplarily, the measurement result includes a measurement result of a frequency point measured in a T period and historical measurement results of other frequency points not measured in the T period.

Some possible examples of determining the priority of the at least one frequency bin are described below.

Example one:

the priority of the at least one frequency point is determined by a history record of an auxiliary cell added to the terminal equipment by the network equipment, wherein the history record comprises at least one of adding time, adding duration and adding times.

For example, the priority of each of the at least one frequency point may be determined by a history of secondary cells added as terminal devices by their corresponding cells. The history of the cells added as secondary cells of the terminal device may include at least one of an addition time, an addition duration, and an addition number.

When the history record comprises the adding time, the priority of the at least one frequency point is determined by the historical recent adding time of the cell corresponding to the at least one frequency point; the frequency point with smaller time difference between the latest adding time of the history and the current time is higher in priority. The smaller the time difference between the time of the cell added as the auxiliary cell of the terminal device and the current time is, the greater the possibility that the cell is added as the auxiliary cell of the terminal device is, the higher the priority of the corresponding frequency point is, the measurement of the frequency point is preferentially performed, the measurement result of the frequency point is ensured to be included in the obtained measurement result, and the success rate of adding the auxiliary cell is improved.

Under the condition that the historical record comprises adding duration, the priority of the at least one frequency point is determined by the historical adding duration of a cell corresponding to the at least one frequency point; wherein the longer the history addition time, the higher the priority.

And when the historical record comprises the adding times, the priority of the at least one frequency point is determined by the historical adding times of the corresponding cell. Wherein, the more the history addition times, the higher the priority.

And under the condition that the history record comprises the adding time, the adding duration and the adding times, determining the priority of the frequency point by combining the historical recent adding time, the historical adding duration and the historical adding times of the cell corresponding to the frequency point. Illustratively, weights are respectively set for the historical recent adding time, the historical adding time length and the historical adding times, and the priority of the frequency point is determined by the weighted sum result of the historical recent adding time, the historical adding time length and the historical adding times of the corresponding cell.

In some implementations, the at least one frequency point is arranged in the historical frequency point table according to a priority order. The historical frequency point table is used for recording frequency points corresponding to the auxiliary cells which are added by the terminal equipment in a historical mode. At least one of adding time, adding duration and adding times of the cell corresponding to the frequency point can be recorded in the historical frequency point table. The frequency points in the historical frequency point list are arranged according to the priority sequence, and the terminal equipment can determine the priority of the at least one frequency point according to the position of the at least one frequency point in the historical frequency point list.

In some implementation manners, the historical frequency point table is updated when the network device adds the first secondary cell to the terminal device. Illustratively, when the historical frequency point table contains the frequency point corresponding to the first secondary cell, the priority of the frequency point is recalculated, and the position of the frequency point is updated in the historical frequency point table. And writing the frequency point into the historical frequency point table under the condition that the historical frequency point table does not contain the frequency point corresponding to the first auxiliary cell.

In one implementation mode, the priority of a frequency point is determined by the adding time of a cell corresponding to the frequency point, the frequency points in a historical frequency point table are arranged in the order of priority from high to low, and after a first auxiliary cell is added to a terminal device, the frequency point corresponding to the first auxiliary cell is written into the first bit of the historical frequency point table. It can be understood that, under the condition that the frequency point corresponding to the first secondary cell is the first bit in the historical frequency point table, the historical frequency point table does not need to be updated.

In the embodiment of the application, the priority of the frequency point is determined according to the history of the network equipment and the history of the auxiliary cell added to the terminal equipment. The smaller the time difference between the adding time of the auxiliary cell added as the terminal equipment in the cell history and the current time is, the higher the success rate of the auxiliary cell added as the terminal equipment in the cell is, and the higher the priority of the corresponding frequency point is. The longer the adding time of the secondary cell of the cell history added as the terminal equipment is, the higher the success rate of the secondary cell of the cell added as the terminal equipment is, and the higher the priority of the corresponding frequency point is. The more times the cell history is added as the secondary cell of the terminal device, the higher the success rate of the secondary cell of the cell added as the terminal device is, and the higher the priority of the frequency point corresponding to the cell is. The priority of the frequency points is determined according to the history of the auxiliary cells added to the terminal equipment by the network equipment history, and under the condition that the time for the terminal equipment to enter an idle state is short and all the frequency points of the at least one frequency point cannot be measured in the idle state, the frequency points with high priority are preferentially measured, so that the reported measurement results include the measurement results of the frequency points with high priority, and the success rate of the subsequent possible CA/DC addition is guaranteed.

Example two:

the configuration information carries priority level information of the at least one frequency point, and the priority of the at least one frequency point is determined by the priority level information.

Exemplarily, the configuration information sent by the network device may further include priority level information of the at least one frequency point. For example, the RRC release message sent by the network device includes at least one IE, where each IE in the at least one IE is used to indicate a priority level of each frequency point in the at least one frequency point. The terminal device may determine the priority order of the at least one frequency point according to the at least one IE, and then measure the at least one frequency point in the order from high to low in priority.

In one embodiment, when a first frequency point and a second frequency point with the same priority level exist in the at least one frequency point, the priority of the first frequency point and the priority of the second frequency point are determined by the historical recent adding time of the cell corresponding to the first frequency point and the second frequency point, and the priority of the frequency point with the smaller time difference between the historical recent adding time and the current time is higher. Illustratively, the adding time of the cells corresponding to the first frequency point and the second frequency point is reflected in a historical frequency point table, for example, the first frequency point and the second frequency point are arranged in the historical frequency point table according to the order of the most recent adding time of the history. And under the condition that the at least one frequency point comprises a first frequency point and a second frequency point with the same priority level, the terminal equipment determines the priority of the first frequency point and the second frequency point according to the positions of the first frequency point and the second frequency point in the historical frequency point list.

It can be understood that, in the case that a first frequency point and a second frequency point with the same priority level exist in the at least one frequency point, the priority order of the first frequency point and the second frequency point may also be determined according to the historical adding duration and the historical adding frequency of the cells corresponding to the first frequency point and the second frequency point.

Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic flow chart of another frequency point measurement method according to an embodiment of the present application, which can also be understood as a supplement or a modification of the frequency point measurement method in fig. 5. As shown in fig. 7, the frequency point measurement method includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:

701, adding CA/DC for the terminal equipment by the network equipment. The terminal device is in a connected state, and the terminal device and the network device can interact based on RRC connection to complete a CA/DC adding process, namely the network device adds an auxiliary cell or an auxiliary cell group to the terminal device.

And 702, updating the historical frequency point table.

And the historical frequency point table is used for recording the frequency points corresponding to the auxiliary cells which are successfully added by the terminal equipment in the history. All the frequency points in the historical frequency point list are arranged according to the priority of the frequency points from high to low, and the higher the priority of the frequency points is, the more the frequency points are positioned in the historical frequency point list.

Illustratively, the priority of the frequency point in the historical frequency point table is determined by the adding time of the corresponding cell, wherein the smaller the time difference between the latest historical adding time of the cell corresponding to the frequency point and the current time is, the higher the priority is. The frequency points in the historical frequency point list are arranged according to the adding time sequence of the corresponding cell, wherein the frequency points with smaller time difference between the latest adding time of the history and the current time are arranged in front of the position of the historical frequency point list. After the network equipment adds the auxiliary cell or the auxiliary cell group to the terminal equipment, the terminal equipment updates the position of each frequency point in the historical frequency point table, so that the frequency point corresponding to the newly added cell is arranged at the first position in the historical frequency point table. If the frequency point corresponding to the cell added by the network device for the terminal device is the first in the historical frequency point table, the historical frequency point table may not be updated.

For example, the historical frequency point table may further include Radio Access Technology (RAT) and time stamp (timestamp) of a secondary cell newly added by the network device for the terminal device.

703, the network device sends an RRCRelease message to the terminal device. And after receiving the RRCRelease message, the terminal equipment releases RRC connection and enters an idle state from a connection state. Wherein, the rrcreelease message includes IE: measiderlierlistnr/measiderlierlisteutra, which configures the frequency points, i.e. EMR frequency points, that the terminal device needs to measure in the idle state.

And 704, sequencing the EMR frequency points by the terminal equipment according to the sequence of the priority from high to low to obtain the sequenced frequency points.

Illustratively, the terminal device sorts the EMR frequency points according to the positions of the frequency points in the historical frequency point table, and obtains a sorted order. For example, as shown in fig. 8, the EMR frequency points include F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, and F6, the frequency point arrangement order in the historical frequency point table is F5, F2, and F6, and after the terminal device sorts the EMR frequency points according to the positions of the frequency points in the historical frequency points, the obtained sorted frequency points are F5, F2, F6, F1, F3, and F4.

705, the terminal device measures the sorted frequency points in sequence to obtain a measurement result.

The specific implementation of step 705 refers to the related description of step 502, which is not described herein again.

706, the terminal device sends RRCResumeRequest message to the network device.

Illustratively, when the terminal device initiates a new service and data needs to be sent, the terminal device recovers the previous RRC connection by sending a RRCResumeRequest message to the network device.

707, the network device returns RRCResume message to the terminal device.

And the network equipment replies RRCReseume information to the terminal equipment after receiving the RRCResemerRequest information, restores RRC connection with the terminal equipment and requests the terminal equipment to report the measurement result of the EMR frequency point.

708, the terminal device sends a RRCResumeComplete message to the network device. The terminal equipment reconfigures the wireless resource according to the RRCResume message, enters a connection state from an idle state, and sends the RRCResumecplete message to the network equipment. The RRCRESUMeComplete message contains a measurement result, and the terminal equipment sends the measurement result of the EMR frequency point to the network equipment through the RRCRESUMeComplete message.

709, the network device decides whether to add CA/DC according to the measurement result. And if the network equipment adds CA/DC to the terminal equipment, updating the historical frequency point table.

Illustratively, under the condition that the traffic demand of the terminal device is large, the network device adds CA/DC to the terminal device, that is, adds an auxiliary cell or an auxiliary cell group to the terminal device, so as to meet the traffic demand of the terminal device. And the network equipment determines a proper cell according to the measurement result of the frequency point measurement reported by the terminal equipment, and adds the cell as an auxiliary cell of the terminal equipment. The suitable cell may be a cell in which RSRP and RSRQ in the measurement result of the corresponding frequency point are higher than a threshold value.

In the embodiment of the application, the configuration information sent by the network device includes information of EMR frequency points, which is used for instructing the terminal device to measure the EMR frequency points in an idle state. The terminal equipment enters an idle state after receiving the configuration information sent by the network equipment, sequences the EMR frequency points from high to low according to the priority in the idle state to obtain the sequenced frequency points, and then measures the sequenced frequency points according to the sequence. And preferentially measuring the frequency points with high priority, and ensuring that the obtained measurement result contains the measurement result of the frequency point with high priority, thereby improving the effectiveness of the measurement result. And under the condition that the time for the terminal equipment to enter the idle state is short and all the frequency points of the at least one frequency point cannot be measured in the idle state, preferentially measuring the frequency point with high priority, ensuring that the reported measurement result comprises the measurement result of the frequency point with high priority, and providing guarantee for the success rate of the subsequent possible CA/DC addition.

The longer the adding time of the secondary cell of the cell history added as the terminal equipment is, the higher the success rate of the secondary cell of the cell added as the terminal equipment is, and the higher the priority of the corresponding frequency point is. The more times the cell history is added as the secondary cell of the terminal device, the higher the success rate of the secondary cell of the cell added as the terminal device is, and the higher the priority of the frequency point corresponding to the cell is. The priority of the frequency points is determined according to the history of the auxiliary cell added to the terminal equipment by the history of the network equipment, and under the condition that the time for the terminal equipment to enter an idle state is short and all the frequency points of the at least one frequency point cannot be measured in the idle state, the frequency points with high priority are preferentially measured, the reported measurement results are ensured to include the measurement results of the frequency points with high priority, the success rate of adding the auxiliary cell can be improved, and the success rate of adding the auxiliary cell possibly later is guaranteed.

In one embodiment, when the history record includes the adding time, the priority of the at least one frequency point is determined by the historical recent adding time of the cell corresponding to the at least one frequency point; the frequency point with smaller time difference between the latest adding time of the history and the current time is higher in priority.
