Description

Scheduling method, electronic device and chip

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular, to a scheduling method, an electronic device, and a chip.

Background

In a Long Term Evolution (LTE) or New Radio (NR) wireless communication system, in order to implement an automatic Neighbor Cell Relation (ANR) function, a Self-optimizing Network (SON) may obtain Cell Global Identifier (CGI) information of a target Cell by requesting a User Equipment (UE) residing in a current Network, so as to identify a Cell in the Network.

Currently, the ue may use Discontinuous Reception (DRX) interval (gap) in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection state to obtain CGI information and perform other measurements in a manner of statically configuring a priority; for example, when CGI reading is specified to have a higher priority, the resource scheduler in the user equipment may request the measurement module to stop the currently ongoing measurement, and schedule all DRX gap resources to the CGI information acquisition module to complete the acquisition of the CGI information; and when other types of measurement scheduling are specified to have higher priority, the resource scheduler can preferentially schedule gap resources to the measurement module, and allocate the remaining gap resources to the CGI reading to complete the acquisition of the CGI information.

Therefore, the common scheduling scheme cannot guarantee the timely acquisition of the CGI and the performance of other measurement types at the same time, and the scheduling effect is poor.

In a second aspect, embodiments of the present application provide a chip, where the chip includes a programmable logic circuit and/or program instructions, and when the chip runs, the scheduling method described above is implemented.

In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, which includes a processor, and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor, and when the instructions are executed by the processor, the scheduling method as above is implemented.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, after receiving CGI request information, which is sent by a network device and indicates to acquire a CGI of a target cell, an electronic device may determine, according to the target cell and a historical measurement result and/or a DRX gap resource interval, respective priorities, that is, a first priority and a second priority, corresponding to a task of reading the CGI of the target cell and a task of performing measurement in a current state, and implement a dynamic decision on the priorities; therefore, the reading task and the measurement task of the CGI of the target cell can be scheduled according to the first priority and the second priority which are suitable for the current state, timely acquisition of the CGI and performance of other measurements can be guaranteed at the same time, and a scheduling effect is improved.

Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant application and are not limiting of the application. It should be noted that, for the convenience of description, only the parts related to the related applications are shown in the drawings.

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing embodiments of the present application only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

In the following description, reference is made to "some embodiments" which describe a subset of all possible embodiments, but it is understood that "some embodiments" may be the same subset or different subsets of all possible embodiments, and may be combined with each other without conflict. It should also be noted that reference to the terms "first \ second \ third" in the embodiments of the present application is only used for distinguishing similar objects and does not represent a specific ordering for the objects, and it should be understood that "first \ second \ third" may be interchanged with a specific order or sequence where possible so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than that shown or described herein.

In an LTE or NR wireless communication system, in order to implement an ANR function, a SON acquires CGI information of a target cell by requesting a UE camped in a current network, thereby achieving a purpose of identifying a cell in the network. Obtaining the CGI Information of the target cell mainly includes reading a Master Information Block (MIB) and a System Information Block1 (System Information Block1, SIB 1) of the target cell. The specific acquisition procedure is shown in third Generation Partnership project (3 GPP) 38.300section 15.3.3.2. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an Automatic neighbor Relation Function (Automatic neighbor Relation Function), as shown in fig. 1, a UE acquires a physical layer Cell identifier Phy-CID =5 of a new neighbor Cell B (Cell B), reports the physical layer Cell identifier Phy-CID, and a neighbor Cell a responds to the physical layer Cell identifier Phy-CID to request to acquire Global-CID; then, CGI is read between the UE and Cell B through a Broadcast Control Channel (BCCH); reporting is performed after Global-CID =19 is obtained.

Further, as described in 3gpp 38.331section 5.3.3.1, the UE may utilize an autonomous gap (autonomous gap) for obtaining the CGI, and may also utilize available idle periods (available periods). In the embodiment of the present application, what is mainly solved is how to schedule the CGI information reading by using idle periods, and further, the idle periods in the embodiment of the present application mainly refer to DRX gap in an RRC connected state.

Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a DRX gap, as shown in fig. 2, taking two DRX cycles as an example, each DRX cycle (cycle) includes a corresponding DRX gap; the DRX gap is an inactive idle period (inactive idle period), and the rest are Active states (Active).

Further, in 3gpp 38.331section 5.3.3.1 the following is also mentioned:

for each measId in the measIdList contained in the VarMeasConfig (for each measId included in the measIdList with the VarMeasConfig); if the reportType of the associated reportConfig is set to reportCGI and timer T321 is running (if the reportType for the associated reportconfigs is set to reportCGI and timer T321 is running); if an autonomous gap of utilization (if user Automo us Gaps is configured for the associated reportConfig) is configured; performing corresponding measurements on the frequency and RAT indicated in the related metric object using autonomous gaps as needed (performing the correlated measurements on the frequency and RAT indicated in the correlated metric object using the autonomous gaps); otherwise (else); corresponding measurements (period) are performed on the frequency and the RAT indicated in the relevant metric object using the available idle time.

The reading of the CGI can be scheduled in the DRX gap resource, and other various types of measurements such as Layer3 measurement can also be scheduled. The relationship between CGI reading and other measurement types needs to be better coordinated on the limited DRX gap resource, so that the CGI information can be successfully read within the time specified by the network (before the T321 timer times out), and the influence on the performance of other types of measurement can be reduced.

However, for the currently mainstream technical solution, the CGI acquisition and the measurement of other measurement types are implemented by using a method of statically configuring priorities. A first scheme is that CGI reading has a higher priority, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of implementation of a common scheduling method, i.e., as shown in fig. 3, when a network configures a CGI reading request, a gap resource scheduler requests a measurement module to stop current ongoing measurement, schedules all DRX gap resources in a current DRX cycle to an acquisition module of CGI information, if CGI acquisition in the current DRX cycle is not completed, then continues to schedule the gap resources in a next DRX cycle to the CGI information acquisition module, and after CGI reading is completed, schedules the gap resources to the measurement module for other types of measurement. The second scheme is that other types of measurement scheduling have higher priority, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of implementation of a common scheduling method, and as shown in fig. 4, other types of measurement scheduling have higher priority, when the network configures a CGI read request, the gap resource scheduler will preferentially schedule gap resources to the measurement module, if there are remaining gap resources in the current DRX Cycle, the gap resources will be scheduled to the CGI information acquisition module, in the next DRX Cycle, the gap resources will still be preferentially allocated to the measurement module, if there are remaining gap resources, the CGI reading is performed again, and the process is repeated until the CGI information is successfully acquired.

For the scheduling method, the implementation is simple, the complexity is low, but such a static scheduling manner may lose the performance of other measurement types (for example, the first scheme) when ensuring the acquisition of the CGI, or may cause the acquisition of the CGI to be untimely (for example, the second scheme) when ensuring the performance of the measurement types, and cannot ensure the timely acquisition of the CGI and the performance of other measurement types at the same time, and the scheduling effect is poor.

In order to solve the above problem, in an embodiment of the present application, an electronic device determines, according to CGI request information, a target cell corresponding to the CGI request information; determining a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI (common gateway interface) of the target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measuring task according to the target cell and a historical measuring result and/or a DRX (discontinuous reception) gap resource interval; and scheduling the reading task and the measuring task of the CGI of the target cell according to the first priority and the second priority. Therefore, the scheduling method provided by the application can simultaneously ensure the timely acquisition of the CGI and the performance of other measurements, and improve the scheduling effect.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

An embodiment of the present application provides a scheduling method, and fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an implementation process of the scheduling method provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 5, in the embodiment of the present application, the scheduling method of the electronic device may include the following steps:

step 101, according to the CGI request information, determining a target cell corresponding to the CGI request information.

In an embodiment of the application, the electronic device may determine, according to the CGI request information, a target cell corresponding to the CGI request information.

In the embodiments of the present Application, the electronic device may be any type of terminal, chip, integrated Circuit (IC), application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), and the like.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device may configure the electronic apparatus to read the CGI of the target cell; specifically, the network device may send CGI request information to the electronic apparatus, and the electronic apparatus may attempt to demodulate the MIB and SIB1 of the target cell after receiving the CGI request information sent by the network device.

It is to be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the CGI request information is used to instruct the electronic apparatus to read the CGI of the target cell.

Further, in an embodiment of the present application, after receiving CGI request information sent by the network device, the electronic apparatus may determine, by parsing the CGI request information, a target cell that needs to acquire a CGI and is indicated by the network device.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may obtain a physical layer cell identifier according to the CGI request information, so as to determine, according to the physical layer cell identifier, a target cell for requesting to read a CGI by the network device; for example, the electronic device obtains physical layer cell identity Phy-CID =3 (cell a) according to the CGI request information, and thus determines that a target cell for which the network device requests to read the CGI is cell a according to the physical layer cell identity Phy-CID = 3.

Step 102, according to the target cell, the historical measurement result and/or the DRX gap resource interval, determining a first priority corresponding to a reading task of the CGI of the target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task.

In an embodiment of the application, after determining a target cell corresponding to CGI request information according to the CGI request information, an electronic device may determine a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI of the target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task according to the target cell, a historical measurement result, and/or a DRX gap resource interval.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the historical measurement result may be a measurement report that the electronic device has reported to the network device last time; the historical measurement result comprises a measurement result of any measurement type of the electronic device for the adjacent cell, and the application is not particularly limited; for example, the historical measurement results may include measurement results of Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurements performed by the electronic device on the neighboring cells; and/or, a measurement result of Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) measurement for the neighboring cell; and/or a measurement result of measuring a Signal Interference Noise Ratio (SINR) of the neighboring cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present application, the measurement task may be a measurement task of any measurement type, and the present application is not particularly limited; the measurement task mainly aims at the measurement of other cells except the target cell; for example, the measurement task may be RSRP measurement on other cells than the target cell; and/or, RSRQ measurements; and/or SINR measurements, etc.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the target cell is cell a, and the measurement task may be RSRP measurement on cell B, cell C, cell D, and cell E.

It is to be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device generally requests to the electronic apparatus to acquire the CGI of the target cell after having obtained the measurement result of the target cell, and therefore, the subsequent measurement task performed by the electronic apparatus is mainly to perform measurement on cells other than the target cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may dynamically make a decision on a first priority corresponding to a reading task and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task of the CGI of the target cell, so as to schedule the limited DRX gap resource interval to execute the reading task of the CGI of the target cell and the measurement tasks of other cells, so as to ensure that the CGI of the target cell is obtained in time as much as possible, and at the same time, the performance of other measurement tasks is not lost.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, the results of the first priority and the second priority may include two, one result is that the first priority is higher than the second priority, and the other result is that the second priority is higher than the first priority.

In some embodiments of the present application, when determining a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task according to the target cell and a historical measurement result and/or DRX interval (gap) resource, if the historical measurement result includes a measurement result of the target cell, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority based on the measurement result of the target cell; the first priority and the second priority may be determined based on the DRX gap resource interval if the historical measurement does not include the measurement of the target cell.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, if the historical measurement result includes a measurement result of the target cell, the electronic device may calculate first difference information between the measurement result of the target cell and measurement results of other cells in the historical measurement result, respectively, when determining the first priority and the second priority based on the measurement result of the target cell; determining minimum difference information in the first difference information; the first priority and the second priority are determined according to the minimum difference information.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the minimum difference information, if the minimum difference information is greater than a first threshold, the electronic device determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to the first threshold, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the minimum difference information is greater than the first threshold, it is considered that the network may be handed over to the target cell immediately, and the CGI of the target cell needs to be read immediately, so that the electronic device sets the first priority for the CGI reading of the target cell to be higher than the second priority for measuring other cells.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to a first threshold, the electronic device may determine first start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a previous DRX cycle when determining the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval; calculating second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information; and determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to a second threshold, the electronic device may determine that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the second difference information is less than the second threshold, it may be determined that the second priority is higher than the first priority.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the application, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold, it is indicated that the electronic apparatus has not configured the DRX gap resource interval for a long time before receiving the CGI read request sent by the network device, and when receiving the CGI read request, the network device may configure the DRX gap resource interval at the same time, so to avoid a time delay for reading the CGI of the target cell, it is necessary to immediately schedule the current DRX gap resource interval to perform reading of the CGI of the target cell.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, in the connected DRX gap resource interval, according to a specific rule, the CGI is dynamically determined to read and measure the scheduling priority of another cell, so as to achieve the purpose of optimizing performance.

And 103, scheduling the reading task and the measurement task of the CGI of the target cell according to the first priority and the second priority.

In an embodiment of the application, after determining a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task according to the target cell and a historical measurement result and/or a DRX gap resource interval, an electronic device may perform scheduling processing on the reading task of the CGI of the target cell and the measurement tasks of other cells according to the first priority and the second priority.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic device schedules a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and a measurement task of another cell according to a first priority and a second priority, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic device preferentially schedules a DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell; and if the second priority is higher than the first priority, preferentially scheduling the DRX interval resource interval to measure other cells.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, during the scheduling processing of reading the CGI of the target cell and measuring another cell according to the first priority and the second priority, the electronic device stops the scheduling processing if a timer is triggered.

Illustratively, in the embodiment of the present application, the timer may be a T321 timer.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic device may schedule a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle (cycle) to read the CGI of the target cell when preferentially scheduling the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell; and if the CGI of the target cell is not obtained in the current DRX period, continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX period to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is obtained.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, in a case that the first priority is higher than the second priority, after the electronic device schedules the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, if the acquisition of the CGI of the target cell is completed in the current DRX cycle and there is a remaining DRX gap resource interval in the current DRX cycle, the electronic device schedules the remaining DRX gap resource interval to measure another cell.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic apparatus determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic apparatus will preferentially schedule the DRX gap resource interval in the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, and if the acquisition of the CGI of the target cell is completed in the current DRX cycle and there is a remaining DRX gap resource interval, the remaining DRX gap resource interval may be used to measure other cells; if the CGI of the target cell is not acquired in the current DRX period, the CGI of the target cell is still preferentially scheduled to be read at the DRX gap resource interval in the next DRX period until the CGI of the target cell is successfully read; or a timer is triggered at the moment, namely the timer is overtime, and the scheduling is stopped.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic device may schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to measure another cell when the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to measure another cell; and if the measurement of other cells is completed in the current DRX period and the residual DRX gap resource interval still exists in the current DRX period, scheduling the residual DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, in a case that the second priority is higher than the first priority, after scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to measure the other cells, if the measurement of the other cells is not completed in the current DRX cycle, the electronic device continues to schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX cycle to measure the other cells, until the measurement of the other cells is completed, and reads the CGI of the target cell after reading the CGI of the target cell.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic apparatus determines that the second priority is higher than the first priority, it may preferentially schedule the DRX gap resource interval to measure other cells in the current DRX cycle, and if there is a DRX gap resource interval, it may be used to read the CGI of the target cell, and if there is no remaining DRX gap resource interval, it waits for the measurement of other cells in the subsequent DRX cycle to be completed, and then reads the CGI of the target cell by using the remaining DRX gap resource; the scheduling is circulated until the CGI information is read successfully or a timer is triggered.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, in the process of preferentially scheduling the DRX gap resource interval to measure the other cells, if the DRX gap resource interval of N DRX cycles is continuously scheduled to measure the other cells, the electronic device schedules the DRX gap resource interval of N +1 th DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is obtained; wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic apparatus does not have a DRX gap resource interval used for reading the CGI of the target cell in N consecutive DRX cycles, or allocates the DRX gap resource interval for reading the CGI of the target cell, but the CGI reading is not completed all the time; and if the CGI of the target cell is not acquired in the DRX gap resource interval of the (N + 1) th DRX period, continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the (N + 2) th DRX period to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is successfully acquired, and then continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval to measure other cells.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic apparatus measures the other cell at DRX gap resource intervals of N DRX cycles in a continuous scheduling manner, schedules a DRX gap resource interval of N +1 th DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, and stops scheduling also if a timer is triggered until the CGI of the target cell is acquired.

Further, fig. 6 is a schematic view of an implementation flow of a scheduling method according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 6, the method for determining, by an electronic device, a first priority corresponding to a CGI reading task of a target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task according to the target cell and a historical measurement result and/or a DRX gap resource interval, that is, the method provided in step 102, may include the following steps:

step 102a, if the historical measurement result comprises the measurement result of the target cell, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the measurement result of the target cell.

In an embodiment of the application, an electronic device determines a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task other than the reading task according to the target cell and a historical measurement result and/or a DRX gap resource interval; in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority based on the measurement result of the target cell if the historical measurement result includes the measurement result of the target cell.

In some embodiments of the present application, if the historical measurement results include measurement results of the target cell, the electronic device may respectively calculate first difference information between the measurement results of the target cell and the measurement results of other cells in the historical measurement results; then determining minimum difference information in the first difference information; and then determining the first priority and the second priority according to the minimum difference information.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the minimum difference information, if the minimum difference information is greater than a first threshold, the electronic device may determine that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to the first threshold, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device, when determining the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval, may determine first start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the previous DRX cycle; then calculating second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information; and then determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to a second threshold, the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the second difference information is less than the second threshold, the second priority is higher than the first priority.

And 102b, if the historical measurement result does not comprise the measurement result of the target cell, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

In an embodiment of the application, an electronic device determines a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task other than the reading task according to the target cell and a historical measurement result and/or a DRX gap resource interval; in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval if the historical measurements do not include measurements of the target cell.

In some embodiments of the present application, if the historical measurement result does not include the measurement result of the target cell, the electronic device may determine, when determining the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval, first start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the previous DRX cycle; then calculating second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information; and then determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information.

Further, in an embodiment of the present application, a method for determining, by an electronic device, a first priority and a second priority based on a measurement result of a target cell may include the steps of:

step 201, respectively calculating first difference information between the measurement result of the target cell and the measurement results of other cells in the historical measurement results.

In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device determines a first priority and a second priority based on a measurement result of a target cell; in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may first calculate first difference information between the measurement result of the target cell and the measurement results of other cells in the historical measurement results, respectively.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the historical measurement result may include measurement results of a plurality of other cells, and therefore, when the first difference information is calculated, the measurement results of the target cell and the measurement results of the plurality of other cells in the historical measurement result are respectively subtracted, so that the obtained first difference information includes a plurality of measurement result differences.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the historical measurement results include an RSRP measurement result of a cell a (a measurement result of a target cell), and RSRP measurement results of a cell B, RSRP measurement results of a cell C, and RSRP measurement results of a cell D (measurement results of other cells); the RSRP measurement result of the cell A is represented as cell-RSRP, the RSRP measurement result of the cell B is represented as cellb-RSRP, the RSRP measurement result of the cell C is represented as cellc-RSRP, and the RSRP measurement result of the cell D is represented as celld-RSRP; calculating a measurement result difference value between cell-RSRP and cellb-RSRP: delta _ ab = cell-RSRP-cell-RSRP, calculating a measurement difference between cell-RSRP and cellc-RSRP: delta _ ac = cell-RSRP-cell-RSRP, and a measurement result difference between cell-RSRP and celld-RSRP is calculated: delta _ ad = cell-RSRP-celld-RSRP; thereby obtaining first difference information including delta _ ab, delta _ ac, and delta _ ad.

Step 202, determining the minimum difference information in the first difference information.

In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may determine minimum difference information among the first difference information after calculating the first difference information between the measurement result of the target cell and the measurement results of the other cells in the history measurement results, respectively.

Exemplarily, in an embodiment of the present application, the first difference information includes delta _ ab, delta _ ac, delta _ ad, and delta _ ae; minimum difference information deltaMin, deltaMin = MIN (delta _ ab, delta _ ac, delta _ ad, delta _ ae) among the first difference information is determined.

Step 203, determining a first priority and a second priority according to the minimum difference information.

In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority according to minimum difference information after determining the minimum difference information among the first difference information.

In some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the minimum difference information, if the minimum difference information is greater than a first threshold, the electronic device determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to the first threshold, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval, if the minimum difference information is greater than a first threshold, the electronic device determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to the first threshold, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval, the electronic device may first determine first start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the previous DRX cycle; then calculating second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information; and then determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information.

Further, in some embodiments of the application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to a second threshold, the electronic device may determine that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the second difference information is less than the second threshold, it may be determined that the second priority is higher than the first priority.

Further, in an embodiment of the present application, the method for determining the first priority and the second priority by the electronic device according to the minimum difference information, that is, the method proposed in step 203, may include the following steps:

step 203a, if the minimum difference information is greater than the first threshold, determining that the first priority is higher than the second priority.

In an embodiment of the application, the electronic device determines a first priority and a second priority according to the minimum difference information; in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority if the minimum difference information is greater than the first threshold.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first threshold may be a corresponding threshold determined according to a measurement type, for example, when the measurement type is RSRP measurement, the minimum difference information is calculated based on RSRP measurement results of the target cell and RSRP measurement results of other cells in the historical measurement results, and then the first threshold may be a corresponding threshold thresrrp determined according to RSRP measurement, where thrersrp is a non-negative number.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the measurement type is RSRP measurement, and if the minimum difference information deltaMin obtained thereby is greater than the first threshold thresrrp, it is considered that the network may be immediately handed over to the target cell, and the CGI of the target cell needs to be immediately read, so that it is determined that the first priority is higher than the second priority.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may compare the historical measurement result with the target cell of the CGI request information newly issued by the network by using the historical measurement result reported to the network side, and presume whether the target cell of the current network side requesting to acquire the CGI information is a cell for which handover (handover) is likely to occur next; if the target cell for CGI reading may be a handover cell, the CGI reading priority needs to be increased, that is, the first priority is higher than the second priority, so that CGI reading is performed immediately, otherwise handover failure may occur.

And 203b, if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to the first threshold, determining a first priority and a second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

In an embodiment of the application, the electronic device determines a first priority and a second priority according to the minimum difference information; in some embodiments of the present application, the electronic device determines the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to a first threshold.

In some embodiments of the present application, if the minimum difference information is less than or equal to a first threshold, the electronic device may determine first start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a previous DRX cycle; then calculating second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information; if the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the second difference information is less than the second threshold, the second priority is higher than the first priority.

Further, in an embodiment of the present application, a method for determining a first priority and a second priority by an electronic device based on a DRX gap resource interval may include the steps of:

step 301, determining a first start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle and a second start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the previous DRX cycle.

In an embodiment of the present application, an electronic device determines a first priority and a second priority based on a DRX gap resource interval; in some embodiments of the present application, an electronic device may first determine first start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a previous DRX cycle.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first start time information represents time information of a start position corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle, and the second start time information represents time information of a start position corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a previous DRX cycle.

Step 303, calculating second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information.

In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may calculate second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information after determining the first start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle and the second start time information corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the previous DRX cycle.

Exemplarily, in an embodiment of the present application, the second difference information Tdiff = currGapStart-pregaspstart, where currGapStart represents the first start time information and pregaspstart represents the second start time information.

And step 304, determining a first priority and a second priority according to the second difference information.

In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority based on second difference information after calculating the second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information.

In some embodiments of the present application, when determining the first priority and the second priority according to the second difference information, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to a second threshold, the electronic device may determine that the first priority is higher than the second priority; if the second difference information is less than the second threshold, it may be determined that the second priority is higher than the first priority.

Further, in an embodiment of the present application, the method for determining the first priority and the second priority by the electronic device according to the second difference information, that is, the method set forth in step 304, may include the following steps:

step 304a, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the first priority is higher than the second priority.

In an embodiment of the application, the electronic device determines a first priority and a second priority according to the second difference information; in some embodiments of the present application, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the electronic device determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic apparatus may determine the second threshold according to the DRX cycle length.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the second threshold may be equal to a product of the DRX cycle length and a Scaling factor (Scaling factor); for example, the second threshold may be K × TdrxCycle, where TdrxCycle is a DRX cycle length, K is a scaling factor, K is a positive integer greater than 0 (K =1,2,3,4 …), and a value of K may be preset.

Illustratively, in the embodiment of the present application, the second difference information is Tdiff, the second threshold is 3 × TdrxCycle, and if Tdiff ≧ 3 × TdrxCycle, the first priority is determined to be higher than the second priority.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the application, if the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold, it indicates that the electronic device does not configure the DRX gap resource interval for a long time before receiving the CGI read request sent by the network device, and when receiving the CGI read request, the network device may configure the DRX gap resource interval at the same time.

And 304b, if the second difference information is smaller than the second threshold, the second priority is higher than the first priority.

In an embodiment of the application, the electronic device determines a first priority and a second priority according to the second difference information; in some embodiments of the present application, if the second difference information is less than the second threshold, the electronic device determines that the second priority is higher than the first priority.

Illustratively, in the embodiment of the present application, the second difference information is Tdiff, the second threshold is 4 × TdrxCycle, and if Tdiff < 4 × TdrxCycle, it is determined that the second priority is higher than the first priority.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic apparatus may determine whether the network device configures a dedicated DRX gap resource interval for the CGI information acquisition, and if the DRX gap resource interval is configured for the CGI information acquisition, the CGI needs to be immediately read, otherwise, the network device may continuously configure the DRX gap resource until the requested CGI information is successfully reported to the network device.

Further, fig. 7 is a schematic view of a third implementation flow of the scheduling method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 7, the method for the electronic device to perform scheduling processing on the read task and the measurement task of the CGI of the target cell according to the first priority and the second priority, that is, the method provided in step 103 may include the following steps:

step 103a, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the DRX gap resource interval is scheduled preferentially to read the CGI of the target cell.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic device performs scheduling processing on a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and measurement tasks of other cells according to a first priority and a second priority; in some embodiments of the present application, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell.

In some embodiments of the present application, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic device may schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell when preferentially scheduling the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell; and if the CGI of the target cell is not obtained in the current DRX period, continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX period to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is obtained.

Further, in some embodiments of the application, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic device schedules the remaining DRX gap resource interval to measure the other cells if the obtaining of the CGI of the target cell is completed in the current DRX cycle and the remaining DRX gap resource interval still exists in the current DRX cycle after scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, in the process of preferentially scheduling the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell, if a timer is triggered, the electronic apparatus stops scheduling.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic apparatus determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic apparatus will preferentially schedule the DRX gap resource interval in the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, and if the acquisition of the CGI of the target cell is completed in the current DRX cycle and there is a remaining DRX gap resource interval, the remaining DRX gap resource interval may be used to measure other cells; if the CGI of the target cell is not acquired in the current DRX period, the CGI of the target cell is still preferentially scheduled to be read at the DRX gap resource interval in the next DRX period until the CGI of the target cell is successfully read; or a timer is triggered at the moment, namely the timer is overtime, the scheduling is stopped.

And 103b, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the DRX interval resource interval is scheduled preferentially to measure other cells.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic device performs scheduling processing on a reading task of a CGI of a target cell and a measurement task of another cell according to a first priority and a second priority; in some embodiments of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to measure other cells.

In some embodiments of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic device may schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to measure other cells when the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to measure other cells; and if the measurement of other cells is completed in the current DRX period and the residual DRX gap resource interval still exists in the current DRX period, scheduling the residual DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell.

Further, in some embodiments of the application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, after scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to measure the other cells, if the measurement of the other cells is not completed in the current DRX cycle, the electronic device continues to schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX cycle to measure the other cells, until the measurement of the other cells is completed, and reads a CGI of the target cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, in the process of preferentially scheduling DRX gap resource interval measurement on other cells, if a timer is triggered, the electronic apparatus stops scheduling.

Further, in some embodiments of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, when the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to measure the other cells, if the DRX gap resource interval of N DRX cycles is continuously scheduled to measure the other cells, the electronic device schedules the DRX gap resource interval of N +1 th DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is obtained; wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.

Wherein the electronic device may determine N according to the timer duration, the DRX cycle length, and the scaling factor.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the determination manner of N may be expressed as the following formula:

N＝ floor(T/TdrxCycle×m) (1)

wherein floor represents an integer function floor (x) whose function is "rounding down", i.e. taking the largest integer not greater than x; t is a timer duration, for example, a T321 timer length may be taken, and the T321 timer length may be obtained according to different RAT types read by a CGI described in 3gpp 38.331 or 36.331section 5.5.2; tdrxCycle denotes a DRX cycle length, which may be configured by the network device, for example, may be obtained in a RRCReconfiguration message from the network device; m is a scaling coefficient, the value range is 0-1, the specific value can be preset, and the application is not limited specifically.

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic apparatus does not have the DRX gap resource interval for reading the CGI of the target cell in N consecutive DRX cycles, or allocates the DRX gap resource interval for reading the CGI of the target cell, but the CGI reading is not completed all the time; and if the acquisition of the CGI of the target cell is not completed in the DRX gap resource interval of the (N + 1) th DRX cycle, continuing to schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the (N + 2) th DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is successfully acquired, and then continuing to schedule the DRX gap resource interval to measure other cells.

Exemplarily, in an embodiment of the present application, fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of implementing a scheduling method proposed in the embodiment of the present application, that is, as shown in fig. 8, a network device configures CGI reading to an electronic apparatus, but since a current second priority is higher than a first priority, the electronic apparatus has measured other cells for N consecutive DRX cycles, and there is no DRX gap resource interval for reading a CGI of a target cell, and in an N +1 th DRX cycle, a DRX gap resource interval is scheduled preferentially to read the CGI of the target cell, so as to obtain the CGI of the target cell.

Exemplarily, in an embodiment of the present application, fig. 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating an implementation of a scheduling method provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 9, a network device configures CGI reading to an electronic apparatus, and allocates a DRX gap resource interval to a CGI of a read target cell, but since a current second priority is higher than a first priority, the electronic apparatus measures other cells for N consecutive DRX cycles, and the CGI reading is not completed all the time, and then preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell in an N +1 th DRX cycle to obtain the CGI of the target cell, and continues to measure the CGI of the target cell after the CGI reading of the target cell is completed.

Illustratively, in the embodiments of the present application, the second priority is higher than the first priority, and N is 4; in the process of measuring 7 cells by the electronic device in the scheduling DRX gap resource interval, cell measurement is performed for 4 consecutive DRX cycles (at this time, measurement of 5 cells has been completed), the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell when the 5 th DRX cycle starts, if the CGI of the target cell is not completely acquired after the 5 th DRX cycle ends, the electronic device continues to schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the 6 th DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, and in the DRX gap resource interval of the 6 th DRX cycle, the CGI of the target cell is completely read, and there is a remaining DRX gap resource interval in the DRX gap resource interval of the 6 th DRX cycle, the electronic device continues to measure the remaining 2 cells by using the remaining DRX gap resource interval until a measurement task of 7 cells is completed.

The embodiment of the application provides a scheduling method, wherein an electronic device determines a target cell corresponding to CGI request information according to the CGI request information; determining a first priority corresponding to a reading task of a CGI (common gateway interface) of the target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measuring task according to the target cell and a historical measuring result and/or a DRX (discontinuous reception) gap resource interval; and scheduling the reading task and the measuring task of the CGI of the target cell according to the first priority and the second priority. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, after receiving CGI request information, which is sent by a network device and indicates to acquire a CGI of a target cell, an electronic apparatus may determine, according to the target cell, a historical measurement result and/or a DRX gap resource interval, priorities, that is, a first priority and a second priority, corresponding to respective execution of a read task of the CGI of the target cell and execution of a measurement task in a current state, and implement dynamic decision on the priorities; therefore, the reading task and the measurement task of the CGI of the target cell can be scheduled according to the first priority and the second priority which are suitable for the current state, the timely acquisition of the CGI and the performance of other measurements can be ensured, and the scheduling effect is improved.

Based on the foregoing embodiments, in another embodiment of the present application, fig. 10 is a schematic diagram of a first structure of an electronic apparatus, as shown in fig. 10, the electronic apparatus 10 may include a priority determining module 11, a DRX gap resource interval scheduling module 12, a CGI obtaining module 13, and a measuring module 14; the priority determining module 11 may be configured to determine, according to the target cell and the historical measurement result and/or the DRX gap resource interval, a first priority corresponding to a reading task of the CGI of the target cell and a second priority corresponding to a measurement task; the DRX gap resource interval scheduling module 12 may allocate and schedule the DRX gap resource interval according to the first priority and the second priority after the priority determining module 11 determines the first priority and the second priority, so that the CGI obtaining module 13 reads the CGI of the target cell according to the DRX gap resource interval allocated and scheduled by the DRX gap resource interval scheduling module 12, and the measuring module 14 measures other cells according to the DRX gap resource interval allocated and scheduled by the DRX gap resource interval scheduling module 12.

Further, in an embodiment of the present application, fig. 11 is a schematic view illustrating a fourth implementation flow of the scheduling method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 11, the electronic device may first analyze the CGI reading request and determine a target cell (step 401).

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may analyze the CGI request information by receiving the CGI request information sent by the network device, and determine a target cell corresponding to the CGI request information.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic apparatus may obtain a physical layer cell identifier according to the CGI request information, so as to determine, according to the physical layer cell identifier, a target cell for which the network device requests to read a CGI; for example, the electronic device obtains physical layer cell identity Phy-CID =3 (cell a) according to the CGI request information, and thus determines that a target cell for which the network device requests to read the CGI is cell a according to the physical layer cell identity Phy-CID = 3.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, after parsing the CGI reading request and determining the target cell, that is, after step 401, the electronic apparatus may query whether the measurement result of the target cell is included in the historical measurement results (step 402).

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the historical measurement result may be a measurement report that the electronic device has reported to the network device last time; the historical measurement result comprises a measurement result of any measurement type of the adjacent cell by the electronic device, and the application is not particularly limited; for example, the historical measurement results may include measurement results of Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurements of the neighboring cell by the electronic device; and/or, measuring a Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) measurement result of the neighboring cell; and/or a measurement result of measuring a Signal Interference Noise Ratio (SINR) of the neighboring cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the historical measurement result includes the measurement result of the target cell, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority according to the measurement result of the target cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the historical measurement result does not include the measurement result of the target cell, the electronic device may determine the first priority and the second priority based on the DRX gap resource interval.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, after querying whether the historical measurement results include the measurement result of the target cell, that is, after step 402, if the historical measurement results include the measurement result of the target cell, the electronic apparatus calculates first difference information between the measurement results of the target cell and the measurement results of other cells, and determines minimum difference information in the first difference information (step 403), and if the historical measurement results do not include the measurement result of the target cell, the electronic apparatus continues to determine whether the second difference information is greater than or equal to a second threshold (step 404).

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, since the historical measurement result may include measurement results of a plurality of other cells, when the first difference information is calculated, the measurement results of the target cell and the measurement results of the plurality of other cells in the historical measurement result are respectively subtracted, so that the obtained first difference information includes a plurality of measurement result differences.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the historical measurement results include an RSRP measurement result of cell a (a measurement result of a target cell), and an RSRP measurement result of cell B, an RSRP measurement result of cell C, an RSRP measurement result of cell D (a measurement result of another cell); the RSRP measurement result of the cell A is represented as cell-RSRP, the RSRP measurement result of the cell B is represented as cellb-RSRP, the RSRP measurement result of the cell C is represented as cellc-RSRP, and the RSRP measurement result of the cell D is represented as celld-RSRP; calculating a measurement result difference value between cell-RSRP and cellb-RSRP: delta _ ab = cell-RSRP-cell-RSRP, calculating a measurement difference between cell-RSRP and cellc-RSRP: delta _ ac = cell-RSRP-cellc-RSRP, and a measurement difference between cell-RSRP and celld-RSRP is calculated: delta _ ad = cell-RSRP-celld-RSRP; thereby obtaining first difference information including delta _ ab, delta _ ac, and delta _ ad.

Exemplarily, in an embodiment of the present application, the first difference information includes delta _ ab, delta _ ac, delta _ ad, and delta _ ae; minimum difference information deltaMin, deltaMin = MIN (delta _ ab, delta _ ac, delta _ ad, delta _ ae) in the first difference information is determined.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the second difference information is a difference result obtained by subtracting the first start time information and the second start time information; the first starting time information represents the time information of the starting position corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX period, and the second starting time information represents the time information of the starting position corresponding to the DRX gap resource interval of the previous DRX period.

That is, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic apparatus may first determine first start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle and second start time information corresponding to a DRX gap resource interval of a previous DRX cycle, and then calculate second difference information between the first start time information and the second start time information.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the second threshold may be equal to a product of a DRX cycle length and a Scaling factor (Scaling factor); for example, the second threshold may be K × TdrxCycle, where TdrxCycle is DRX cycle length, K is a scaling factor, K is a positive integer greater than 0 (K =1,2,3,4 …), and a value of K may be preset.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, after calculating the first difference information between the measurement results of the target cell and the other cells and determining the minimum difference information in the first difference information, that is, after step 403, the electronic apparatus may determine whether the minimum difference information is greater than the first threshold (step 405).

Further, in this embodiment of the application, as shown in fig. 11, after determining whether the minimum difference information is greater than the first threshold, that is, after step 405, if the determination result is yes, it is determined that the first priority is higher than the second priority, and the electronic apparatus may preferentially schedule the DRX gap resource to read the CGI of the target cell in the current DRX cycle (step 406); if the determination result is negative, the electronic device continues to determine whether the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold (step 404).

That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may compare the historical measurement result with the target cell of the CGI request information sent by the network at the latest by using the historical measurement result reported to the network side, and presume whether the target cell of the current network side requesting to acquire the CGI information may be a cell for which handover (handover) occurs next; if the target cell for CGI reading may be a handover cell, the CGI reading priority needs to be increased, that is, the first priority is higher than the second priority, so that CGI reading is performed immediately, otherwise handover failure may occur.

Further, in this embodiment of the application, as shown in fig. 11, after determining whether the second difference information is greater than or equal to the second threshold, that is, after step 404, if the determination result is yes, it is determined that the first priority is higher than the second priority, and the electronic apparatus may preferentially schedule DRX gap resources (DRX gap resource interval) in the current DRX cycle to read a CGI of the target cell (step 406); if the determination result is negative, it is determined that the second priority is higher than the first priority, and the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource to measure other cells in the current DRX cycle (step 407).

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic apparatus may first schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell; and if the CGI of the target cell is not acquired in the current DRX period, continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX period to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is acquired.

Further, in an embodiment of the application, if the first priority is higher than the second priority, after the electronic device schedules the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, if the CGI of the target cell is acquired in the current DRX cycle and there is a remaining DRX gap resource interval in the current DRX cycle, the electronic device schedules the remaining DRX gap resource interval to measure another cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, when preferentially scheduling the DRX gap resource in the current DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell, if the timer is triggered, the electronic apparatus stops scheduling.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic apparatus may schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to measure other cells first; and if the measurement of other cells is completed in the current DRX period and the residual DRX gap resource interval still exists in the current DRX period, scheduling the residual DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell.

Further, in this embodiment of the application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, after scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the current DRX cycle to measure the other cells, if the measurement of the other cells is not completed in the current DRX cycle, the electronic device continues to schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX cycle to measure the other cells, until the measurement of the other cells is completed, and reads the CGI of the target cell.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic apparatus preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource to measure other cells in the current DRX cycle, if the timer is triggered, the electronic apparatus stops scheduling.

Further, in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, after preferentially scheduling DRX gap resources to read a CGI of a target cell in a current DRX cycle (step 406), or preferentially scheduling DRX gap resources to measure other cells in the current DRX cycle (step 407), the electronic apparatus may continue scheduling in a subsequent DRX cycle according to the determined priority until the CGI of the target cell is acquired or a timer expires (step 408).

It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic apparatus determines that the first priority is higher than the second priority, the electronic apparatus may preferentially schedule, in the current DRX cycle, the CGI of the target cell to be read at the DRX gap resource interval, and if the acquisition of the CGI of the target cell is already completed in the current DRX cycle and there is a remaining DRX gap resource interval, other cells may be measured using the remaining DRX gap resource interval; if the CGI of the target cell is not acquired in the current DRX period, the CGI of the target cell is still preferentially scheduled to be read at the DRX gap resource interval in the next DRX period until the CGI of the target cell is successfully read; or a timer is triggered at this time, the scheduling is stopped.

It can also be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the electronic apparatus determines that the second priority is higher than the first priority, it may preferentially schedule the DRX gap resource interval in the current DRX cycle to measure the other cells, and if there is a DRX gap resource interval, it may be used to read the CGI of the target cell, and if there is no remaining DRX gap resource interval, after waiting for the measurement of the other cells in the subsequent DRX cycle to be completed, the CGI of the target cell is read using the remaining DRX gap resource; the scheduling is circulated until the CGI information is read successfully or a timer is triggered.

Further, in some embodiments of the application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, when the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to measure the other cells, if the DRX gap resource interval of N DRX cycles is continuously scheduled to measure the other cells, the electronic device schedules the DRX gap resource interval of N +1 th DRX cycle to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is obtained; wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.

It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, if the second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic device does not have a DRX gap resource interval for reading the CGI of the target cell in N consecutive DRX cycles, or allocates the DRX gap resource interval for reading the CGI of the target cell, but the CGI reading is not completed all the time; and if the CGI of the target cell is not acquired in the DRX gap resource interval of the (N + 1) th DRX period, continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the (N + 2) th DRX period to read the CGI of the target cell until the CGI of the target cell is successfully acquired, and then continuously scheduling the DRX gap resource interval to measure other cells.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 8, the network device configures CGI reading to the electronic apparatus, but since the current second priority is higher than the first priority, the electronic apparatus has been measuring other cells for N consecutive DRX cycles, and there is no DRX gap resource interval for reading the CGI of the target cell, and in the N +1 th DRX cycle, the network device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell, so as to obtain the CGI of the target cell.

For example, in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 9, a network device configures CGI reading to an electronic apparatus, and allocates a DRX gap resource interval to a CGI of a read target cell, but since a current second priority is higher than a first priority, the electronic apparatus measures other cells for N consecutive DRX cycles, and the CGI reading is not completed all the time, then in an N +1 th DRX cycle, preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell to obtain the CGI of the target cell, and after the CGI reading of the target cell is completed, continues to measure other cells.

Illustratively, in the embodiments of the present application, the second priority is higher than the first priority, and N is 5; in the process of measuring 9 cells by scheduling the DRX gap resource interval, the electronic device performs cell measurement for 5 consecutive DRX cycles (at this time, measurement for 7 cells is already completed), and then the electronic device preferentially schedules the DRX gap resource interval to read the CGI of the target cell when the 6 th DRX cycle starts, and if the CGI of the target cell is read after the 6 th DRX cycle ends, continues to schedule the DRX gap resource interval of the 7 th DRX cycle to measure the remaining 2 cells until the measurement task for 7 cells is completed.

For example, in the embodiment of the present application, a T321 timer is used, and the electronic device first schedules a DRX gap resource interval of a current DRX cycle to read a CGI of a target cell; and the CGI of the target cell is not obtained in the current DRX period, and the CGI of the target cell is continuously read by scheduling the DRX gap resource interval of the next DRX period, wherein in the process, the T321 timer is overtime, and the reading of the CGI of the target cell is finished.

Therefore, the scheduling priorities of CGI reading and other measurements can be dynamically adjusted, so that the requirement that network equipment acquires the CGI of the target cell in time can be met, and the performance of other measurements can not be lost; meanwhile, in the limited DRX gap resource interval, the efficiency of sharing the DRX gap resource interval by CGI reading and other measurement types is improved, and the handover (handover) performance of the UE is improved.
