Description

User device and measurement method

The present invention relates to a user equipment in a wireless communication system.

In 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project), the next-generation communication standard (NR (also called 5G)) of LTE (Long Term Evolution) and LTE-Advanced is being discussed. In the NR system, a flexible duplex is studied, which flexibly controls resources used for DL communication and UL communication according to downlink (DL) traffic and uplink (UL) traffic generated. As a flexible duplex, for example, there is a TDD (Time Division Duplex) scheme (hereinafter, referred to as dynamic TDD) in which UL resources and DL resources are dynamically switched in a time domain.

Typically, it is assumed that the smaller the cell, the greater the bias between DL traffic and UL traffic compared to the larger cell. For this reason, it becomes possible to accommodate traffic more efficiently by controlling DL communication and UL communication using dynamic TDD independently in each cell.

In dynamic TDD, DL and UL transmission directions are dynamically changed at certain time intervals such as subframes, slots and minislots. That is, as shown in FIG. 1A, in static TDD applied in LTE, a preset DL / UL configuration (configuration) common among cells is used. On the other hand, in dynamic TDD, as shown in FIG. 1B, individual DL / UL configurations are utilized in each cell. In dynamic TDD, DL / UL configuration is changed to semi-static or flexible.

As described above, when adopting a method of individually applying the DL / UL configuration to each cell, for example, UL communication in another cell (aggressor cell) interferes with DL communication in a certain cell (victim cell) There may be a case where the user equipment in the victim cell can not properly receive the signal from the base station.

In order to solve the above problems, by transmitting and receiving DL / UL configurations between base stations, each base station can reduce the influence from other cells / reduce the influence to other cells, It is conceivable to determine the DL / UL configuration of the own cell. In order to realize this, for example, the user equipment in one cell measures the reception power (eg, RSRP, RSSI) of the signal transmitted from the user equipment in another cell and reports it to the base station Conceivable. This measurement is called UE-to-UE measurement (inter-user equipment measurement). However, in the prior art, there is a large number of user equipments in a radio communication system adopting a method of individually applying DL / UL configuration to each cell. In each possible cell, there has been no specific technique for appropriately performing inter-user-device measurement and appropriately reporting the measurement result to the base station.

The present invention has been made in view of the above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a technology that enables a user device to appropriately perform measurement between user devices and report of measurement results.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiments described below are merely examples, and the embodiments to which the present invention is applied are not limited to the following embodiments.

The radio communication system according to the present embodiment is assumed to support at least the LTE communication scheme. Therefore, when the wireless communication system operates, the existing technology defined by the existing LTE can be used as appropriate. However, the existing technology is not limited to LTE. Also, “LTE” used in this specification has a broad meaning including LTE-Advanced and LTE-Advanced and later, unless otherwise specified. The present invention is also applicable to communication systems other than LTE.

In the embodiments described below, the terms SRS, PUSCH, RRC, DCI, etc. used in the existing LTE are used, but this is for the convenience of description, and similar channels to these, Signals, functions, etc. may be referred to by other names.

(Configuration of wireless communication system)
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the wireless communication system 10 in the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, radio communication system 10 in the present embodiment includes

user apparatuses

101, 102 and 103 (hereinafter collectively referred to as user apparatus 100) and

base stations

201, 202 and 203 (hereinafter base station 200). Can be collectively referred to as In the following embodiment, as described above, the wireless communication system 10 supports dynamic TDD that can control UL and DL individually for each cell.

The user device 100 is a communication device provided with a wireless communication function such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, a tablet, a wearable terminal, a communication module for M2M (Machine-to-Machine), etc. Use various communication services provided by 10. The user equipment may for example be called "UE".

The base station 200 is a communication device that provides one or more cells and performs wireless communication with the user device 100. In the illustrated example, three

base stations

201, 202, 203 are illustrated as an example, but in general, a large number of base stations 200 are arranged to cover the service area of the wireless communication system 10. The base station may be called, for example, "gNB".

Also, for the signal waveform used in the radio communication system of the present embodiment, for example, both UL and DL may be OFDMA similar to DL of existing LTE, and UL / DL is the same as that of existing LTE. SC-FDMA / OFDMA similar to UL / DL may be used, or other signal waveforms may be used.

Further, the base stations are connected by a communication line (referred to as a backhaul), and information can be transmitted and received between the base stations using, for example, an X2 interface. Further, in the present embodiment, the base stations are synchronized. However, base stations may be asynchronous. In the case of non-synchronization, for example, time shift information is exchanged between base stations, and substantially synchronous operation is possible.

(About the configuration of Dynamic TDD)
As described above, in the present embodiment, since dynamic TDD is used, a configuration example of dynamic TDD will be described.

In dynamic TDD according to the present embodiment, for example, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3C, UL communication and DL communication are performed by several UL / DL patterns. However, it is not limited to these.

In pattern 1 of FIG. 3A, UL communication / DL communication is possible at all time intervals. The “time interval” here is the width of one square frame in FIG. 3A (the same applies to B and C) (the width described as “E. g., Subframe, slot or Mini-slot”. ). This "time interval" may be referred to as TTI.

In the pattern 2 shown in FIG. 3B, the UL / DL transmission direction is fixedly set in a part of time intervals, and only the set communication direction is permitted in the relevant time intervals. On the other hand, it is possible to switch UL / DL and carry out in other time intervals. In the pattern 3 shown in FIG. 3C, a partial time interval and a section within the time interval (in the illustrated example, the sections at both ends within the time interval are fixedly set to DL and UL) UL / DL is fixedly set, and only the set transmission direction is permitted in the relevant time interval. On the other hand, UL communication / DL communication is possible at other time intervals.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the frame configuration according to the pattern 3 shown in FIG. 3C in more detail. Below, for convenience of explanation, the above-mentioned "time interval" is called a slot. However, the slots used in the following may be replaced with TTI (transmission time interval), unit time frame, subframe, minislot. The slot time length may be a fixed time length that does not change with the passage of time, or may be a time length that changes with packet size or the like.

As shown in FIG. 4, in this example, one slot has a leading time interval (DL control channel interval) for the downlink control channel, a time interval for data communication (data interval), and an uplink control channel. It may have a last time interval (UL control channel interval). In the slot configuration configured with only necessary channels, such as taking the configuration of the leading time interval (DL control channel interval) for the downlink control channel and the time interval (data interval) for data communication as necessary Transmission may be possible. Also, at the boundary between DL and UL, a guard period (GP: guard period) for switching is provided.

As an example, UL control CH may be transmitted in a short time (eg, 1 symbol). Such a short time UL control CH is called Short PUCCH.

(About interference pattern)
The UE-to-UE interference assumed in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 5, when focusing on the user apparatus 102, the cell of the base station 201 and the cell of the base station 203 are victim cells, and the cell of the base station 202 is an aggressor cell. As shown in FIG. 5, the UL signal from the user device 102 of the aggressor cell is an interference with the

user devices

101 and 103 of the victim cell. This interference is an example of DL and UL cross-link interference, and its influence is large, for example, the UL data channel becomes interference to the DL control channel of the victim cell. In particular, when the distance between the user devices is short, the effect becomes large. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, an area where the distance between the user devices is short is regarded as a cluster, and UE-to-UE interference measurement is performed in the cluster. , And UE-to-UE interference reduction control may be performed.

(Basic operation example)
In general, since the number of user apparatuses 100 in a cell is very large, inter-user measurement of each user apparatus pair is inefficient and the overhead is also large. Therefore, in the present embodiment, a time / frequency resource for interference measurement (hereinafter, IMR (Interference Measurement Resource)) is set, and the user apparatus 100 of a certain cell is a multiple user apparatus of another cell (one or more). Measure the aggregated (aggregated) crosslink interference level (eg, RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator)) from The measurement results are reported to the base station 200 of the serving cell, and an operation for interference reduction is performed between the cells (between the base stations). However, the RSSI is an example, and another quantity (eg, RSRP) may be measured.

For example, in the configuration shown in FIG. 5, an IMR is set in the user apparatus 101 of the aggressor cell, and the user apparatus 101 receives the received power of the signal transmitted from the user apparatus 102 (including multiple user apparatuses) in the IMR (e.g. Measure the RSSI) of The user apparatus 101 transmits the measurement result to the base station 201.

The base station 201 adjusts the communication direction in the own cell in order to reduce interference, for example, when it is understood that the interference from the aggressor cell of the base station 202 is large based on the measurement result received from the user apparatus 101. Do. Alternatively, the measurement result is transmitted to the base station 202 of the aggressor cell, and the base station 202 of the aggressor cell is caused to adjust the transmission direction.

FIG. 6 is a diagram for describing a basic operation example between the base station 200 and the user apparatus 100 located in the cell (serving cell) of the base station 200.

In S (step) 101, the base station 200 transmits setting information to the user apparatus 100. The setting information includes, for example, information specifying an IMR (example: resource position, resource size, cycle, etc.), a method of reporting measurement results (report cycle, time offset, etc.), an IM (Interference measurement) process described later Configuration information (e.g., information for specifying an IMR), or any one or any plurality or all of them. Transmission of configuration information is performed using any one or more of broadcast information (system information), UE dedicated RRC signaling (for example, non-patent document 1), MAC CE, and PDCCH. However, these are examples, and setting information may be transmitted by other methods. In addition, all or part of the setting information may be preconfigured in the user device 100.

In S102, the user apparatus 100 measures the received power in the IMR. The user apparatus 100 reports the measurement result to the base station 200 in S103.

RSSI which is a measurement quantity assumed in the present embodiment may be called CL-RSSI (cross link RSSI). The CL-RSSI is, for example, “total received power (W) observed by the user equipment from all interference sources in different transmission directions only at the set measurement resource in the measurement bandwidth across N resource blocks. Linear average of the total received power (in [W]) observed only in the configured measurement resource and in the measurement bandwidth over N number of resource blocks, by the UE from all interfering sources with different transmission direction. It is defined as).

Hereinafter, specific measurement methods will be described as Examples 1 and 2, and an example related to a method of reporting measurement results will be described as Example 3.

Example 1
In the first embodiment, it is assumed that the user apparatus 101 shown in FIG. 5 performs measurement as an example. Also, as an example, it is assumed that the assumed UL interference source is the cell 2 (the cell in which the user apparatus 102 is present) illustrated in FIG.

Example 1-1
FIG. 7A shows an example of the IMR set in the user apparatus 101 in the embodiment 1-1. In this example, two resource elements (2 OFDM symbols × 1 subcarrier) in a data area in a slot (measurement slot) in which DL is set are set as an IMR. UL is set in the data area of the slot (measured slot) in the cell 2 corresponding to the Measurement slot, and there is a possibility that a plurality of user apparatuses may perform UL data communication (PUSCH / DMRS) in the data area. .

For example, the base station 201 of the serving cell of the user apparatus 101 is notified of the information of UL / DL configuration from the base station 202 of the cell 2, and the base station 201 illustrated resources in the slot set to UL in the cell 2. The information on the IMR corresponding to the measurement is set in the user apparatus 101.

The IMR shown in FIG. 7A is an example in which the resources of ZP CSI-RS defined in LTE are applied. When applying ZP CSI-RS resources, IMRs are set on CSI-RS candidate positions. Further, the type of resource element of IMR in the resource block is the same as that of CSI-RS, and as shown in FIG. 7A, the frequency direction is one subcarrier and the time direction is two OFDM symbols.

The IMR may be configured differently to the resources of the ZP CSI-RS. For example, the base station 201 can set the IMR to any resource to which PUSCH / DMRS can be transmitted in a neighbor cell (neighbor cell). Also, the resource size of the IMR is arbitrary (flexible). For example, as the IMR, a resource in which the frequency direction is one subcarrier and the time direction is an OFDM symbol larger than 2 may be set. Also, as the IMR, a resource in which the frequency direction is a plurality of subcarriers and the time direction is one OFDM symbol may be set.

In Example 1-1, when the data communication of UL is actually performed in the cell 2, the reception power measured by the user apparatus 101 by the IMR becomes large.

A further example of Example 1-1 is shown in FIG. FIG. 8 shows an example in which a part of uplink transmission resources such as PUSCH is set to non-transmission in one cell (Cell # b) among a plurality of neighboring cells of the base station 201 (FIG. 8 (c)). . In the cell, for example, part of the PUSCH transmission resource is not transmitted by higher layer signaling or L1 / L2 signaling (PDCCH or the like), and Rate matching is applied. The setting may be in units of cells or in units of UEs. According to the method shown in this example, the presence or absence of uplink transmission can be switched by the cell or user apparatus for a certain measurement target resource, so by setting a plurality of IM processes (or IMRs) described later. It becomes possible to identify the interference source (interfering cell or interfering user apparatus). The base station 201 may notify another base station of no transmission setting of uplink transmission resource by backhaul signaling. A plurality of non-transmission setting information may be notified. Also, the base station 201 performs measurement setting based on non-transmission setting information received from another base station, or notifies an appropriate base station of an interference level based on the measurement result reported from the user apparatus. It can be done.

Example 1-2
An example of the IMR set to the user apparatus 101 in the embodiment 1-2 is shown in FIG. 9 (a). In Example 1-2, in the slot (Measurement slot) in which the DL is set, the IMR is set in the resource in which the SRS is set in the cell 2.

That is, as shown in FIG.9 (b), IMR is set to the symbol in which transmission of SRS is performed from the user apparatus of the cell 2. FIG.

For example, the base station 201 of the serving cell of the user apparatus 101 is notified of the SRS configuration information from the base station 202 of the cell 2, and the base station 201 uses the resource to which the SRS is transmitted in the cell 2 as the IMR. Set to Also, the IMR may be set, for example, to overlap with Comb (the comb tooth-like frequency resource to which SRS is transmitted) in SRS setting in cell 2, or the frequency in the symbol in which SRS is transmitted. It may be set to the whole (example in FIG. 9A).

In Example 1-2, even when UL data communication is not performed in the cell 2 very much, the reception power measured by the IMR becomes large.

<About the setting method of IMR>
Hereinafter, variations of the setting method will be described by taking an example in which the IMR is set from the base station 201 to a subordinate user apparatus (user apparatus 101 or the like).

(1) Option 1
In Option 1, the base station 201 sets the IMR to cell specific for the subordinate user apparatuses. In this example, for example, GC (Group-common) -PDCCH or RRC signaling is used. In Option 1, the same IMR is configured for all user devices in the cell. Option 1 has the advantage of very low IMR overhead.

(2) Option 2
In Option 2, the base station 201 sets the IMR to UE specific for the subordinate user equipment. In this example, for example, RRC signaling is used. In option 2, in order to reduce overhead, for example, the number of user equipments performing inter-user equipment measurements may be limited.

For example, whether to perform inter-user apparatus measurement is set from the base station 201 for the user apparatus. As an example, the execution requirement of the inter-user-device measurement is set for a user device whose DL RSRP (DL RSRP reported from the user device to the base station 201) is smaller than a threshold. The reason is that when DL RSRP is small, it is susceptible to cross link interference.

The first embodiment enables the user apparatus 100 to appropriately measure interference from neighboring cells.

(Example 2)
Next, Example 2 will be described. Also in the second embodiment, as an example, it is assumed that the user device 101 shown in FIG. 5 performs the measurement.

In Example 2, an Interference Measurement process (hereinafter, an IM process) is defined. The interference measurement process may be referred to as a measurement process. The IM process is an IMR in the case of assuming a specific interference situation from a plurality of neighboring cells. Such an IM process setup makes it possible to measure different assumed crosslink interferences due to dynamic DL / DL changes. A specific example will be described later.

For example, a plurality of IM processes are set in the user apparatus 101 from the base station 201. The user device 101 measures received power (RSSI) at IMRs in multiple IM processes. Note that, usually, the IMR is different between different IM processes. However, the IMRs between different IM processes may be identical or may partially overlap. In addition, as described later, it is also possible to perform measurement for a plurality of IM processes in one IM process by time division. Also, the non-transmission cell and its resource information described above in the setting in the IM process may be included.

The setting of the IMR in an IM process is a setting that can measure interference in the hypothesis of UL transmission (crosslink interference) in neighboring cells corresponding to the IM process.

FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining an example of the IMR process. Cell 1 to cell 3 on the horizontal axis of FIG. 10 are, for example, cell 1 to cell 3 in the cluster shown in FIG. A to G on the vertical axis of FIG. 10 indicate IMR. Further, each row in FIG. 10 shows the assumption of UL transmission of each cell at the same time (eg, a certain slot). One row (IMR and corresponding UL transmission assumption for each cell) may be considered as one IM process. Also, IMR in one row may be considered as one IM process.

For example, in the row of B (IMR-B), the IMR in FIG. 10 indicates that cell 1 is “ZP CSI-RS” means that there is no UL transmission of cell 1 in IMR-B. The fact that cell 2 is “PUSCH / DMRS / SRS” means that it is assumed that there is UL transmission (PUSCH or DMRS or SRS) of cell 2 in IMR-B, and cell 3 is “PUSCH / DMRS “/ SRS” indicates that it is assumed that there is UL transmission (PUSCH or DMRS or SRS) of cell 3 in IMR-B.

As an example, the base station 201 of the cell 1 (the cell of the base station 201 in FIG. 5) sets IMR-A, B, C, D for the user apparatus 101, and the user apparatus 101 performs IMR-A, B , C and D respectively.

The IM process corresponding to IMR-A is IM process A, the IM process corresponding to IMR-B is IM process B, the IM process corresponding to IMR-C is IM process C, and IMR-D is compatible. When the IM process is set to IM process D, “set IMR-A, B, C, D” may be considered as synonymous with “set IM process A, B, C, D”. The user device 101 obtains the following measurement results as an example.

As a result of the measurement in IMR-A, a measurement result (for example, received power = low) corresponding to the assumption that UL transmission (crosslink transmission) is not performed in any of cell 2 and cell 3 is obtained. By the measurement in IMR-B, the measurement result (for example, received power = high) corresponding to the assumption that UL transmission is performed in both cell 2 and cell 3 is obtained. The measurement in IMR-C gives a measurement result (eg, reception power = medium) corresponding to the assumption that UL transmission is not performed in cell 2 and UL transmission is performed in cell 3. The measurement in IMR-D gives a measurement result (eg, reception power = medium) corresponding to the assumption that UL transmission is not performed in cell 3 but UL transmission is performed in cell 2.

Similarly to the above, in the case of the assumption of FIG. 10, for example, the base station 202 of the cell 2 sets IMR-A, C, E, F for the user apparatus 102. Also, for example, the base station 203 of the cell 3 sets IMR-A, D, E, and G for the user apparatus 103.

Note that the base station of each cell can create the information of the table shown in FIG. 10 by exchanging, for example, UL / DL configuration information with the base station of the neighboring cell. Further, since the status of UL transmission / non-transmission of each cell corresponding to each IMR changes with the passage of time, the assumed contents shown in FIG. 10 may change with the passage of time. Each base station may, for example, set an IM process based on the assumption of UL transmission of each cell after change to a subordinate user apparatus at predetermined time intervals.

According to the second embodiment, the user apparatus 100 can appropriately grasp crosslink interference from neighboring cells by using the IMR according to the situation of crosslink interference from neighboring cells.

(Example 3)
In the third embodiment, as described in the second embodiment, an example of a method of measurement report (measurement report) performed by the user device 101 when a plurality of IM processes are set in the user device 101 will be described. Examples 3-1 to 3-4 will be described below. In the following description, an example in which the user apparatus 101 mainly performs reporting will be described.

Example 3-1
In Example 3-1, the user apparatus 101 separately reports the measurement results of a plurality of IM processes (or one IM process) set in the user apparatus 101 to the base station 201 separately for each IM process. The base station 201 performs, for example, transmission direction adjustment for cross link interference reduction, based on the measurement result reported from the user apparatus 101 (and other user apparatuses).

More specifically, for example, the user apparatus 101 reports, to the base station 201, measurement results of all IM processes in a plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101. The base station 201 can determine the cross link interference situation based on the measurement report.

As an example, under the assumption shown in FIG. 10, when the measurement result (received power) in the process of IMR-C is small (eg, smaller than predetermined threshold A), base station 201 performs UL transmission in cell 3 Although it is assumed, the resulting crosslink interference is small, so it can be determined not to adjust the transmission direction.

Further, under the assumption shown in FIG. 10, when the measurement result (received power) in the process of IMR-D is large (for example, larger than predetermined threshold B), base station 201 is caused by UL transmission in cell 2. It can be determined that the adjustment of the transmission direction is to be performed because the crosslink interference to be performed is large. In this example, for example, the base station 201 can perform adjustment to align the transmission direction with the cell 2 in the corresponding slot.

Also, for example, the user apparatus 101 may report the measurement results of some IM processes (one or more IM processes) among the plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101 to the base station 201. . As an example, the user apparatus 101 transmits, to the base station 201, a measurement result larger than a predetermined threshold C among measurement results in a plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101. Among the measurement results in the plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101, the measurement result not larger than the predetermined threshold C is not reported to the base station 201.

The base station 201 can determine the content of the crosslink interference based on the reported measurement result under the assumption of the corresponding IM process. The base station 201 can determine that there is no crosslink interference from the cell under the assumption of the corresponding IM process with respect to the measurement result that has not received the report. For example, in the case shown in FIG. 10, when the base station 201 does not receive the measurement result of the IM process of IMR-C from the user apparatus 101, the base station 201 assumes UL transmission in the cell 3, but It can be determined that crosslink interference is small.

Example 3-2
In Example 3-2, the user apparatus 101 jointly reports the measurement result of the IM process and the DL measurement result set in the user apparatus 101 to the base station 201. In this example, the user apparatus 101 performs measurement of an IM process (that is, measurement using IMR) and measurement of DL. With regard to the measurement method of DL, although not limited to a particular method, for example, the DL reception power of the serving cell is measured in a slot where IMR is configured. The received power of DL may be RSSI or RSRP.

As an example, when the IMR shown in FIG. 7A is set, measurement is performed using a predetermined DL resource (for example, a resource of a DL reference signal of a serving cell) of a slot in which the IMR is set. In Example 3-2, the IM process may include the measurement of IMR and the measurement of DL.

Based on the received measurement results, the base station 201 that receives the measurement results of the multiple IM process and the DL measurement together collectively has, for example, a DL for the user apparatus in its own cell in a slot with large DL reception power and large interference. Adjustments can be made to avoid scheduling. Further, inter-base station adjustment similar to that of the embodiment 3-1 can also be performed.

Variations of the reporting method are the same as in Example 3-1. That is, for example, the user apparatus 101 reports, to the base station 201, the integrated measurement results (measurement results of IMR and DL measurement results) of all IM processes in a plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101. The base station 201 can determine the cross link interference situation based on the comprehensive measurement report.

Also, for example, as the user apparatus 101 reports, to the base station 201, an overall measurement result of part of IM processes (one or more IM processes) in the plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101. It is also good. As an example, the user apparatus 101 transmits, to the base station 201, an overall measurement result having an IMR measurement result larger than a predetermined threshold D among the overall measurement results in the plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101.

In Example 3-2, the user apparatus 101 may measure the IM process (that is, measurement using the IMR) and perform interference measurement of the DL and report these. The DL interference measurement method is not limited to a particular method, but for example, it is assumed that DL communication in another cell is performed in the slot (or some other slot) in which IMR is set (eg: A DL data resource of another cell or a resource of a DL reference signal is set as a DL measurement resource (eg, a resource similar to ZP CSI RS), and the reception power is measured by the DL measurement resource. The received power here may be RSSI or RSRP. Also, the IM process may include IMR measurement and DL interference measurement.

Based on the received measurement results, the base station 201 that receives the measurement results of multiple IM processes and the DL interference measurement together collectively, for example, performs DL scheduling for user apparatuses in its own cell or other cells in a slot with large interference. Can be implemented to avoid Further, inter-base station adjustment similar to that of the embodiment 3-1 can also be performed.

Variations of the reporting method are the same as in Example 3-1. That is, for example, the user apparatus 101 reports, to the base station 201, the integrated measurement results (measurement results of IMR and DL interference measurement results) of all IM processes in a plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101. The base station 201 can determine the interference status based on the comprehensive measurement report.

Also, for example, the user apparatus 101 may report, to the base station 201, an integrated measurement result of part of IM processes (one or more IM processes) among a plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101. Good. As an example, the user apparatus 101 is an integrated measurement in which the sum (or an average) of the IMR measurement result and the DL interference measurement result among the integrated measurement results in the plurality of IM processes set in the user apparatus 101 is larger than a predetermined threshold E. The result is sent to the base station 201.

Example 3-3
In the description of Example 3-3 and Example 3-4 below, the description “IM process / IMR” may apply the process to the IM process described in Example 2, and will be described in Example 1. Indicates that it may be applied to the IMR. The IMR described in the first embodiment may be interpreted as "IM process".

The user apparatus 101 may select a subset of IM processes / IMRs set from the base station 201 to perform measurement and reporting.

For example, when the base station 201 sets N (N is an integer of 1 or more) IM processes to the user apparatus 101, the user apparatus 101 selects M (<= N) IM processes to measure and report I do. The N IM processes are, for example, IM processes on all neighboring cells (nearby base stations) that can cooperate with the base station 201. M may be a predetermined value, a value signaled in the upper layer, or a value determined based on UE capability. In addition, the measurement and the report from the user apparatus 101 do not need to be concerned with DL measurement / measurement between UEs.

Also, the configuration from the base station 201 may not be UE specific but UE group common or Cell specific. Each user device can select a subset according to their capabilities.

In the embodiment 3-3, the base station 201 can easily operate since it can set IM processes corresponding to all cooperable peripheral cells without considering the interference level and / or the UE capability. In addition, since it becomes possible to notify the setting from the base station 201 by broadcast information or the like, the signaling overhead can be reduced.

In addition, in the report to the base station 201, the user apparatus 101 may report the ID of the IM process of the selected subset along with the measurement result. The user apparatus 101 may report, to the base station 201, the ID of the IM process of the selected subset separately from the measurement result.

Also, the base station 201 that has received the report may request the user apparatus 101 to report measurement results for IM processes / IMRs not included in the subset selected by the user apparatus 101. When the user apparatus 101 receives the request, the user apparatus 101 may report a result indicating unmeasured or low interference to the base station 201.

By reporting the subset as described above, the recognition of the subset can be coordinated between the user apparatus and the base station. Also, robust operation can be performed without the base station having to recognize the selected subset.

Regarding the subset selection method, the user apparatus 101 may determine the subset based on the detection result or measurement result of DL.

For example, the user apparatus 101 may determine the subset based on any one or more of a measurement result of a neighboring cell, a cell ID of a detected neighboring cell, a detected beam ID, and broadcast information. it can.

In this case, in the IM process / IMR set from the base station 201 to the user apparatus 101, one or more corresponding cell IDs and / or beam IDs and / or thresholds for reporting are set, and the user apparatus 101 , IM process / IMR, measure and report only when the set conditions are met. An IM process (referred to as an IM process A) set in the user device 101 will be described as an example. For example, if “cell ID = C” is set in IM process A, this means that IM process A measurement and reporting are performed when a cell with cell ID = C is detected. Therefore, the user apparatus 101 measures and reports the IM process A when it detects a cell of cell ID = C as a result of DL detection.

Also, for example, when “cell ID = C, threshold = received power C” is set in IM process A, this detects a cell with cell ID = C, and the measurement result of that cell is the received power C. When larger, it means performing IM process A measurement and reporting. Therefore, when user apparatus 101 detects a cell of cell ID = C as a result of DL detection / measurement and detects that the measurement result of the cell is larger than reception power C, the measurement and report of IM process A I do.

Also, the user apparatus 101 measures the IM process / IMR included in the subset, and uses the detection of the event that satisfies the above conditions as a trigger to measure the IM process / IMR corresponding to the condition as the base station 201. You may report to

Since there is a tendency for UE-to-UE interference to become stronger as the neighboring cells are taken, by performing measurement / reporting based on DL detection / measurement as described above, the target of measurement / report can be limited to a specific one. Overhead · Complexity can be lowered.

Example 3-4
The time range of the measurement of the IM process / IMR performed by the user apparatus 101 may be determined based on the setting of the report in an IM process / IMR. For example, the time range to be measured may be determined according to the time for making a report and / or the time for receiving a request for a report.

Specifically, for example, periodically reporting a measurement result of an IM process / IMR based on the setting from the base station 201 (e.g., report in the Kth slot every 20 ms) is the user apparatus 101. Suppose that it is set to. At this time, for example, the user apparatus 101 measures the measurement using the IM process / IMR in a time range of M subframes from the (K + 1) th subframe (referred to as measurement 1), and the next M The measurement (measurement 2) is also performed in the time range of the number of subframes. For example, in each of these time ranges, the measurement based on the periodically arriving IMR is performed a plurality of times, and the average is a measurement result. Then, at the report timing, the measurement result of measurement 1 and the measurement result of measurement 2 are reported. For example, using the example of FIG. 10, the measurement at the measurement time of measurement 1 corresponds to the assumption of IMR-B, and the measurement at the measurement time of measurement 2 corresponds to the assumption of IMR-C.

According to the above process, it is possible to perform measurement based on a plurality of types of assumptions in a time division manner using one IM process / IMR. That is, measurement of multiple IM processes / IMR can be performed using one IM process / IMR, which enables efficient measurement.

Further, in the example illustrated in FIG. 11, the user apparatus 101 receives from the base station 201 a report request of measurement results of a certain IM process / IMR at each of time points A, B, C, and D. . In this example, the measurement time range is from the time of receiving the report request (A) to the time of receiving the next report request (B), and the measurement results measured in this measurement time range are reported from the report request (B) , To the base station 201 before receiving the next report request (C). Also in this example, using the assumed example of FIG. 10, for example, the measurement in A to B shown in FIG. 11 corresponds to the IMR-B assumption, and the measurement in B to C corresponds to the IMR-C assumption , C-D may correspond to the IMR-D assumption. That is, using one IM process / IMR, measurements based on multiple types of assumptions can be performed in a time-division manner, enabling efficient measurement.

Also, in FIG. 11, instead of receiving a report request, as shown by E, F, and G, a report period is set, and in each report period, the measurement result measured in the previous report period is reported. You may do it.

The correspondence between the time range for performing measurement and the reporting time / reporting request is set, for example, in the upper layer (eg, setting by RRC signaling from the base station 201). Further, as shown in FIG. 12, when the user apparatus 101 receives a report request (Reporting request) from the base station 201, the user apparatus 101 can receive a report request in the latest measurement period in the past compared to when the report request is received. The measurement results may be reported.

In Example 3-4, by defining the time range of measurement / average in one IM process / IMR (that is, without changing the resources and sequences to be measured), it is possible to effectively single out a large number of measurements. It becomes possible to implement one IM process / IMR.

According to the third embodiment described above, it is possible to perform appropriate measurement in consideration of the conditions of neighboring cells and to appropriately report the measurement result.

In addition, you may implement combining any two of Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3, and you may implement combining all.
