Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

With the development of mobile communication technology, the conventional communication network is gradually replaced by a new communication network. In the process of mobile communication Network development, the evolution of an Access Network (RAN), a Core Network (CN), and a terminal is relatively independent, and a part of the evolution depends on a traditional communication Network when a new communication Network is not mature. For example, currently, a mobile communication network has evolved gradually from a 4G mobile communication network to a 5G mobile communication network, and in a case that neither a 5G core network nor a 5G terminal is mature, the 4G core network is required to be used for data transmission, and the terminal can access to the 4G core network through the 4G access network or the 5G access network, and such a network architecture belongs to an NSA architecture.

The embodiments of the present invention can be applied to the above network architecture, and can also be applied to any other suitable network architecture.

As shown in fig. 1, the network application environment includes a first network 201 and a second network 202, where the first network 201 is a primary network, the second network 202 is an auxiliary network, the first network 201 is responsible for exchanging radio resource control messages with the terminal 100, and the terminal 100 can access the core network 300 through a first network link. The first network 201 serves as a main network, and the terminal 100 may initially access the first network 201 and interact with the core network 300 through the first network 201. The second network 202 may be added through RRC reconfiguration for providing additional wireless network resources.

The first network 201 and the second network 202 may be any suitable networks, as an example, the first network 201 may be a relatively mature and advanced network in actual use, such as a 4G network, and the second network 202 may be a still developing, yet immature network or a backup auxiliary network as a mature network, such as a 5G network or a 2G/3G network, etc. Of course, the first network 201 may also be a 5G network or a 2G/3G network, and the second network 202 may also be a 4G network.

As shown in fig. 2, the terminal 100 may access the first network 201 through a first network device 210 of the first network 201 and access the second network 202 through a second network device 220 of the second network 202. The terminal 100 may first access the first network 201 through the first network device 210, and then perform RRC reconfiguration through the first network device 210 to add other wireless network resources. For example, when the first network 201 is a 4G network and the second network 202 is a 5G network, the terminal 100 first accesses the 4G network, and then the first network device 210 issues RRC configuration information to the terminal 100 to instruct the terminal 100 to measure and report cells of the 5G network, and the first network device 210 configures a suitable access cell for the terminal 100 according to a report result of the terminal.

The terminal 100 may be a User Equipment (UE), an access terminal, a UE unit, a UE station, a mobile station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a UE terminal, a wireless communication device, a UE agent, a UE device, or the like.

The first network device 210 or the second network device 220 is a device for communicating with the terminal 100, which may also be referred to as an access network device or a radio access network device, may be a transmission admission point (TRP), an evolved NodeB (eNB or eNodeB) in the LTE system, a home NodeB (e.g., home evolved NodeB or home Node B, HNB), a baseband unit (BBU), or a radio controller in a Cloud Radio Access Network (CRAN) scenario, or relay stations, access points, vehicle-mounted devices, wearable devices and network devices in a 5G network or network devices in a future evolved PLMN network or the like, may be an Access Point (AP) in the WLAN, may be a gNB in a New Radio (NR) system, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.

The network device may cover one or more cells, wherein the cells, also called cells, refer to an area covered by one base station or a part of the base station (sector antenna) in a cellular mobile communication system. Including various macrocells, picocells, femtocells, and/or other types of cells. A network device may support one frequency point or multiple frequency points.

Fig. 3 schematically shows the hardware structure of the terminal 100, and as shown in fig. 3, the terminal 100 includes a memory 11 and a processor 12. The memory 11, which is a non-volatile computer-readable storage medium, may be used to store non-volatile software programs, non-volatile computer-executable programs, and modules. The memory 11 may include a storage program area and a storage data area, wherein the storage program area may store an operating system, an application program required for at least one function; the storage data area may store data created according to the use of the terminal, and the like. Further, the memory 11 may include high speed random access memory, and may also include non-volatile memory, such as at least one magnetic disk storage device, flash memory device, or other non-volatile solid state storage device. In some embodiments, the memory 11 may optionally include memory located remotely from the processor 12, which may be connected to the terminal over a network. Examples of such networks include, but are not limited to, the internet, intranets, local area networks, mobile communication networks, and combinations thereof.

The processor 12 is a control center of the terminal 100, and connects various parts of the whole terminal by using various interfaces and lines, and executes various functions and processes data of the terminal by running or executing software programs and/or modules stored in the memory 11 and calling data stored in the memory 11, thereby performing overall monitoring on the terminal, for example, implementing the measurement reporting method according to any embodiment of the present invention.

The number of the processors 12 may be one or more, and one processor 12 is illustrated in fig. 3. The processor 12 and the memory 11 may be connected by a bus or other means, such as the bus connection in fig. 3. The processor 12 may include a Central Processing Unit (CPU), Digital Signal Processor (DSP), Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), controller, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) device, or the like. The processor 12 may also be implemented as a combination of computing devices, e.g., a combination of a DSP and a microprocessor, a plurality of microprocessors, one or more microprocessors in conjunction with a DSP core, or any other such configuration.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that terminal 100 may be provided with multiple antennas as needed, as well as components associated with signal reception and signal transmission, such as modems, radio frequency circuits, and the like.

When the first network device 210 reconfigures a cell for the terminal 100, it may issue configuration information to the terminal 100, where the configuration information includes a measurement object and a measurement threshold, and after receiving the configuration information, the terminal measures the cell in the measurement object to obtain a measurement result. In the existing scheme, a terminal only reports a certain number of cells meeting a measurement threshold according to a measurement sequence, and since the reported cells are not necessarily cells with good signal quality near the terminal, the cells with poor network equipment configuration may be caused to the terminal, and subsequently, terminal cutoff may be caused. In the measurement reporting method of the embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the configuration information, the terminal measures the cell in the measurement object, and selects the cell with better signal quality according to the measurement result to report to the first network device 210, thereby ensuring that the first network device 210 configures the cell with better signal quality to the terminal 100.

Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a measurement reporting method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 4, the method includes:

101: receiving measurement configuration information sent by a first network device, where the measurement configuration information includes a measurement object, a measurement index, and a measurement threshold corresponding to the measurement index, and the measurement object includes at least one cell.

In this embodiment, the measurement configuration information includes a Measurement Object (MO), a measurement index, and a measurement threshold corresponding to the measurement index. In other embodiments, the measurement configuration information may further include measurement identification (measID), reporting configuration (reporting configuration) information, and the like. The measurement configuration information may further include a measurement duration for specifying a duration of the measurement and a measurement interval for specifying an interval time of the measurement.

The measurement identifier may be considered as a combination of a measurement object and a reporting configuration, in other words, the measurement identifier may associate the measurement object with the reporting configuration, that is, a measurement identifier may represent the associated measurement object and reporting configuration.

The measurement object may be, for example, frequency information, such as a frequency point or a frequency band. When the measurement object is frequency point information, the terminal can measure the signal quality of the cell of the frequency point. The frequency point information may include at least one of: frequency of SSB (ssbffrequency), absolute frequency location of a reference resource block (common RB, e.g., common RB0) (e.g., PointA absolute frequency (refFreqCSIRS)), etc.

The measurement index is a parameter indicating Signal quality, such as Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP), Reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ), Signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), Signal to noise ratio (SNR), and the like.

The reporting configuration information includes a reporting type of a measurement report (e.g., periodic (periodic) reporting or event triggered (eventTriggered) reporting), an event triggered configuration, a periodic reporting configuration, a Cell Global Identifier (CGI) reporting configuration (reportCGI), and so on. Specifically, the event trigger configuration may include an event type of the reporting event (e.g., a1-a6, B1-B2), a relevant configuration corresponding to the event (e.g., may include a measurement threshold (e.g., a reporting condition threshold corresponding to the reporting event), a hysteresis value, etc.), a reference signal type, a reporting interval, a reporting number of times, and the like.

When the embodiment of the present invention is applied to the network environment shown in fig. 1 or fig. 2, if an event triggered reporting manner is adopted, B1(Inter RAT neighbor tables between threshold) event triggered reporting may be adopted. Wherein, B1 indicates that the reporting is triggered when the quality of the inter-system cell is higher than a certain threshold. That is, when the measurement index of the cell in the measurement object meets the measurement threshold, the terminal is triggered to report the cell to the first network device. In the following embodiments of the present invention, the event triggered reporting and the event type B1 are used as examples for explanation,

102: and measuring the cells in the measurement object based on the measurement indexes, and selecting at least one cell in the measurement object, wherein the measurement indexes of the cell meet the measurement threshold value and the cell has better measurement indexes, and reporting the cell to the first network equipment.

The terminal measures the measurement indexes of the cells in the measurement object, and then selects at least one cell from the cells, of which the measurement indexes meet the measurement threshold and are better, to report. For example, when the measurement index is RSRQ, the terminal measures RSRQ values of cells in the measurement object, then sorts the RSRQ values in a sequence from good to bad, and selects a cell with an RSRQ value greater than an RSRQ threshold and a top rank from the RSRQ values and reports the cell to the first network device. Fig. 5 shows an interaction procedure of the terminal and the first network device.

In one embodiment, the measurement configuration information sent by the first network device to the terminal includes the number of reported cells, and the terminal reports according to the number.

In one embodiment, the number of the measurement configuration information is 1, that is, the terminal only compares the signal quality of the cells in a measurement object with the measurement object in one measurement configuration information as a measurement unit, and selects a cell with better signal quality from the comparison result and reports the cell to the first network device.

In some other embodiments, the number of the measurement configuration information is at least two, that is, the terminal takes the measurement object in the multiple measurement configuration information as a measurement unit, compares the signal quality of the cells in the at least two measurement objects, and selects a cell with better signal quality from the at least two measurement objects to report to the first network device. Compared with the method that the cell with better signal quality is selected from only one measuring object to be reported, the method that the cell with better signal quality is selected from at least two measuring objects to be reported can obtain the cell with better quality to be reported to the first network equipment.

On the occasion that the number of the measurement configuration information is at least two, in order to meet the timeliness of reporting by the terminal, a preset time duration (for example, 10 seconds) may be set, if the terminal receives at least two measurement configuration information sent by the first network device within the preset time duration, a measurement object in the at least two measurement configuration information may be measured, signal quality of a cell in the at least two measurement objects is compared, and a cell with better signal quality is selected from the at least two measurement objects and reported to the first network device.

In this embodiment, if the terminal does not receive another measurement configuration information after receiving one measurement configuration information for a preset time period, the terminal may measure only the one measurement configuration information, measure a measurement object in the measurement configuration information, and select a cell with better signal quality from the measurement object and report the cell to the first network device.

Specifically, in some embodiments, the terminal may rank the measurement indexes of the cells in each measurement object, and then select a cell, which has a better rank and meets the measurement threshold, from the cells in each measurement object, and report the cell to the first network device. The better sorting means that if the terminal sorts the measurement indexes from good to bad, the sorting is better before the terminal sorts the measurement indexes, and if the terminal sorts the measurement indexes from bad to good, the sorting is better after the terminal sorts the measurement indexes.

Table 1 illustrates that a measurement object includes a frequency point 1 and a frequency point 2, the frequency point 1 includes a cell 1, a cell 2, and a cell 3, the frequency point 2 includes a cell 4, a cell 5, and a cell 6, a measurement index is RSRP, and the number of reports specified by the first network device is 2. In the embodiment shown in table 1, the terminal determines, as to the cells reported to the first network device by the frequency point 1, that are cell 1 and cell 2, and determines, as to the cells reported to the first network device by the frequency point 2, that are cell 4 and cell 5, and the first network device selects, according to the result reported by the terminal, a suitable cell for the terminal to configure to the terminal. Therefore, the terminal can be ensured to join the cell with better signal quality.

Frequency point	Cell	RSRP ordering
			Frequency point 1	Cell 1	1
	Cell 2	3
				Cell 3	4
Frequency point 2	Cell 4	2
				Cell 5	5
	Cell 6	6

When the number of the measurement indexes is at least two, the terminal measures the measurement indexes of the cells in each measurement object and then sorts the measurement indexes. And selecting a cell with better signal quality according to the measurement result and reporting the cell to the first network equipment.

In this case, the selection may be performed according to the ranking number of the measurement indicator with higher priority in each measurement indicator, and taking the embodiment shown in table 2 as an example, assuming that SINR is the more important signal quality indicator, the reported cell may be selected according to the ranking number of SINR. The terminal is referred to as cell 1 and cell 3 for the cells reported to the first network device at frequency point 1, and is referred to as cell 4 and cell 5 for the cells reported to the first network device at frequency point 2.

In other embodiments, the cells to be reported may also be selected according to the sum of the ranking numbers, that is, the ranking sum of the measurement indexes, in the embodiment shown in table 2, the cells reported by the terminal to the first network device on frequency point 1 are cell 1 and cell 3 (or cell 2, which may be randomly selected), and the cells reported to the first network device on frequency point 2 are cell 4 and cell 5.

The terminal may also select the reported cell by comprehensively considering the rank sum value and the rank number of the measurement index with higher priority, for example, the cell is preferentially selected according to the rank sum value, and if the rank sum value is the same, the cell is selected according to the rank number of the measurement index with higher priority. For example, the SINR has a higher priority than the RSRP, in the embodiment in table 1, the terminal is configured to refer to the cells reported to the first network device on frequency point 1 as cell 1 and cell 3, and refer to the cells reported to the first network device on frequency point 2 as cell 4 and cell 5.

Frequency point 2	Cell 4	2	1
					Cell 5	5	3
	Cell 6	6	4

In some embodiments, the measurement configuration information may further include a measurement duration, and then when the terminal receives the measurement configuration information, the terminal starts to measure the cell in the measurement object, and when the measurement duration is reached, the terminal terminates measuring the cell in the measurement object. In practical application, the above function may be implemented by using a timer, which is started when the measurement configuration information is received, and is terminated when the timer reaches the measurement duration.
