Description

Measuring method, measuring configuration method, device and communication system

Technical field

The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a measurement method, a measurement configuration method, an apparatus, and a communication system.

Background technique

In recent years, various types of data applications and services based on mobile communication networks have grown rapidly, and terminals served by mobile communication networks have also expanded from traditional smartphone terminals that are artificially used to other types of terminals that use machines as the main body. . In order to adapt to such a trend, future mobile communication networks need to have the ability to provide more flexible and more diverse services to meet the needs of different terminal devices and different services. In order to achieve this goal, in addition to the traditional enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) service, the fifth generation (5G) communication system also supports Massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC) services and ultra-high reliability-low Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC) service.

The URLLC service has some key metrics: for example, for URLLC, the target of user plane delay should be 0.5 milliseconds upstream and 0.5 milliseconds downstream; the overall URLLC reliability requirement for a single transmission of a data packet is 32 bytes. A 1*10 ^-5 error rate is achieved with a user plane delay of 1 millisecond. Therefore, the URLLC service requires a lower Block Error Rate (BLER) than other services (such as eMBB services).

It should be noted that the above description of the technical background is only for the purpose of facilitating a clear and complete description of the technical solutions of the present invention, and is convenient for understanding by those skilled in the art. The above technical solutions are not considered to be well known to those skilled in the art simply because these aspects are set forth in the background section of the present invention.

Summary of the invention

The inventors have found that different terminal devices may have different RF link implementations or different receiver performances, so the BLER vs SINR curves of different terminal devices may be different. According to the prior art, when a network device configures an SINR for a measurement trigger amount (for example, MeasTriggerQuantity) or a measurement report amount (for example, MeasReportQuantity) and sets a corresponding event threshold or hysteresis or offset value parameter, the terminal device corresponds to the terminal device. The actual BLER value of the configured event threshold or hysteresis or offset value may not necessarily satisfy the BLER requirement of the URLLC service, but the network device does not know this.

Therefore, SINR measurement is not sufficient to guarantee the reliability requirements of the URLLC service. The target serving cell (special cell SpCell or secondary cell SCell) selected by the network device for the terminal device through the SINR measurement result may fail to meet the BLER requirement expected by the URLLC service.

In order to solve at least one of the foregoing problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides a measurement method, a measurement configuration method, a device, and a communication system, so that the BLER satisfies the requirements of the URLLC service through measurement configuration and reporting.

The scenario of the embodiment of the present invention is described below by way of example, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

As shown in FIG. 1, the communication system 100 may include a network device 101 and a terminal device 102. For the sake of simplicity, FIG. 1 is described by taking only one terminal device and one network device as an example, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

In the embodiment of the present invention, an existing service or a service that can be implemented in the future can be performed between the network device 101 and the terminal device 102. For example, these services may include, but are not limited to, enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine type communication (mMTC), and high reliability low latency communication (URLLC, Ultra-Reliable and Low). -Latency Communication), and so on.

The embodiment of the present invention will be described below by taking the NR system as an example; however, the present invention is not limited thereto, and can be applied to any system in which similar problems exist. In addition, the embodiment of the present invention is described by taking the URLLC service as an example. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and may be applicable to other services or other scenarios, for example.

Some concepts related to the embodiments of the present invention are briefly described below.

In the NR system, the network device can configure the terminal device of the RRC_CONNECTED state to perform measurement, and the terminal device can perform measurement reporting according to the measurement configuration, that is, send the measurement report to the network device. The measurement configuration is provided by means of dedicated signaling, for example included in the RRCReconfiguration message. This measurement configuration can also be referred to as RRM (Radio Resource Management) measurement.

The network device may configure the terminal device to report the following measurement information in the measurement report: measurement result of each SS/PBCH block (or CSI-RS resource), each cell based on SS/PBCH block (or CSI-RS resource based) (cell) measurement result, SS/PBCH block index (or CSI-RS resource measurement identifier). Here, the SS/PBCH block represents a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel block, and the CSI-RS represents a channel state information reference signal.

The measurement configuration may include measurement objects and/or reporting configurations, as well as other parameters.

The measurement object is a list of objects that the terminal device performs measurement. For co-frequency and inter-frequency measurements, a measurement object is associated with a carrier frequency associated with the carrier frequency, and the network device can configure a cell-specific offset list, a blacklist cell list, and a whitelist cell list. For inter-RAT E-UTRA measurements, one measurement object is a single EUTRA carrier frequency, where inter-RAT stands for radio access technology, E-UTRA stands for evolved UTRA, UTRA stands for UMTS terrestrial radio access, and UMTS stands for universal mobile communication system.

The report configuration may be a report configuration list, where each measurement object may have one or more report configurations. Each reporting configuration may include a reporting standard, a reference signal type, and a reporting format. The reporting standard is a standard that triggers the terminal device to send a measurement report, which can be one of a periodic or a single event. The reference signal type is a reference signal (SS/PBCH block or CSI-RS) used by the terminal device for beam and cell measurement results. The reporting format is the amount of each cell and each beam (for example, RSRP) included in the measurement report of the terminal device, and other related information, such as the maximum number of cells and the maximum number of beams to be reported by each cell.

The measurement process distinguishes between the serving cell, the listed cell, and the detected cell. The serving cell is a special cell (SpCell) and one or more secondary cells (SCell). The cells listed are the cells listed in the measurement object. The detected cell is a cell that is not listed in the measurement object but is detected by the terminal device on the carrier frequency indicated by the measurement object.

For the measurement object, the terminal device measures and reports the serving cell, the listed cell and/or the detected cell. For cell measurements, the network device can configure reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), or signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) as the trigger. The reported amount may be the same as the trigger amount or a combination of the trigger amounts, that is, the reported amount may be RSRP and RSRQ; RSRP and SINR; RSRQ and SINR; RSRP, RSRQ, and SINR.

When the terminal device sets the measurement result (measResults) in the measurement report (measurementReport), the serving cell measurement result (measResultServingCell within measResultServingFreqList) may be set to include the RSRP, the RSRQ, and the available SINR for each configured serving cell; the neighboring cell may be set. The measurement result includes the measurement result of the cell that triggered the event (the report triggered by the event) or the measurement result of the cell that can obtain the new measurement result (for periodic reporting), and the measurement result includes RSRP, RSRQ, and/or SINR.

In addition to the RRM measurement described above, the network device may also configure parameters related to RLM (Radio Link Monitoring) for the terminal device, for example, setting a radio link failure timer and constant, and a radio link synchronization out-of-step threshold ( rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold). The configuration of the RLM related parameters may be provided by means of dedicated signaling, for example, included in an RRCReconfiguration message.

The embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

Example 1

Embodiments of the present invention provide a measurement configuration method.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a measurement configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention, showing a situation on the network device side. As shown in FIG. 2, the measurement configuration method 200 includes:

Step 201: The network device sends configuration information to the terminal device, where the configuration information includes at least one information related to a block error rate (BLER).

In this embodiment, the network device may send the BLER-related information to the terminal device by using the configuration information, to configure the terminal device to report the BLER-related information, and thus, the network device may be given information about the actual BLER in the terminal device. The BLER requirement of the URLLC service is guaranteed, thereby ensuring the reliability of the URLLC service transmission.

In this embodiment, the configuration information may be used for radio resource management (RRM) related measurement, and may also be used for radio link monitoring (RLM).

When the configuration information is used for RRM related measurement, the configuration information includes, for example, a ReportConfigNR IE in the measConfig IE, where at least one of the following information may be included: measurement trigger amount information (MeasTriggerQuantity), and measurement trigger amount offset information (MeasTriggerQuantityOffset), measurement report information (MeasReportQuantity) of the cell and/or beam, and the above BLER-related information may be included in at least one of the above information.

Tables 1 - 3 below show examples of BLERs included in MeasTriggerQuantity, MeasTriggerQuantityOffset, and MeasReportQuantity, respectively.

Table 1:

Table 2:

table 3:

Since the BLER-related information is added in MeasTriggerQuantity and/or MeasTriggerQuantityOffset and/or MeasReportQuantity, the terminal device can perform corresponding processing according to this, for example, giving the network device information about the actual BLER in the terminal device, thereby ensuring the URLLC The BLER requirement of the service ensures the reliability of the URLLC service transmission. The processing of the terminal device will be described in the following embodiments.

In this embodiment, the configuration information may include measurement configuration information for cell measurement, may also include measurement configuration information for beam measurement, or include frequency bands for traffic and/or frequency and/or frequency band and/or predetermined range. The configuration information is measured, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, the configuration information may further include reporting configuration information, where the reporting configuration information may include configuration parameters for the BLER, such as a threshold or hysteresis or offset value of the BLER. The threshold, hysteresis or offset value of the BLER can be used in the measurement evaluation to determine whether a cell satisfies the reporting standard. Therefore, the terminal device can obtain the configuration parameter of the SINR according to this, to determine whether the trigger condition of the event trigger is met, or for other purposes. For example, the terminal device may obtain, according to a preset frequency band in the terminal device, a relationship between a BLER and a SINR of a cell or a beam, or a historical data of a BLER and SINR relationship of a frequency band or a cell or a beam in a terminal device, or a category of a terminal device. SINR configuration parameters. In this embodiment, the report configuration information may be included in the foregoing configuration information, or may be used independently of the foregoing configuration information, which is not limited in this embodiment.

When the configuration information is used for radio link monitoring (RLM), the configuration information may include RLM configuration information, which may include information about the BLER, such as a radio link failure timer and constant, and/or wireless The link synchronization out-of-step threshold (rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold) or the like may contain information about the BLER.

In this embodiment, the radio link failure timer and constant may be set to values for different BLERs, and the radio link synchronization out-of-step threshold (rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold) may be set to a value for a different BLER.

Examples of wireless link failure timers and constants are as follows:

An example of the wireless link synchronization out-of-step threshold (rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold) is as follows:

rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold INTEGER(0..5)

The value 0 indicates that the BLER is less than or equal to 1% of the synchronization out-of-synchronization threshold, and the value 1 indicates the corresponding synchronization out-of-step threshold when the BLER is greater than 1% and less than 5%. The meaning of the value of the wireless link synchronization out-of-synchronization threshold may be predefined or pre-configured.

According to the measurement configuration method of the embodiment, the network device sends configuration information including information related to the BLER to the terminal device, and the terminal device performs related processing according to the information, and can give the network device information about the actual BLER in the terminal device, and the URLLC service is guaranteed. The BLER requirement ensures the reliability of the URLLC service transmission.

3 is a schematic diagram of a measurement method according to an embodiment of the present invention, showing a case of a terminal device side, which is a process on the terminal device side corresponding to the method of Embodiment 1, wherein the same content as Embodiment 1 is no longer Narration. As shown in FIG. 3, the measurement method 300 includes:

Step 301: The terminal device receives configuration information sent by the network device, where the configuration information includes at least one information related to the BLER.

In this embodiment, by receiving the configuration information including the BLER-related information, the terminal device can give the network device information about the actual BLER in the terminal device, and ensure the BLER requirement of the URLLC service, thereby ensuring reliable transmission of the URLLC service. Sex. Regarding the content of the configuration information, the details have been made in Embodiment 1, and details are not described herein again.

In this embodiment, the configuration information may include configuration information for cell measurement, may also include configuration information for beam measurement, or configuration information for a service and/or frequency and/or frequency band and/or a predetermined range of frequency bands. This embodiment does not limit this.

In this embodiment, the configuration information may further include reporting configuration information, where the reporting configuration information includes at least a configuration parameter of the BLER.

In this embodiment, as described in Embodiment 1, the network device may also configure the BLER configuration parameter for the terminal device, and the terminal device may further receive the report configuration information that includes the configuration parameter of the BLER sent by the network device, and the reporting is performed. The configuration information may be included in the foregoing configuration information or may be configured independently. The configuration parameters of the BLER have been described in Embodiment 1, and are not described herein again.

In this embodiment, the configuration information may further include RLM configuration information, where the RLM configuration information may include related information of the BLER. As described in Embodiment 1, the RLM configuration information may include a radio link failure timer and a constant and/or a radio link synchronization out-of-step threshold (rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold).

In this embodiment, the terminal device may perform radio link monitoring in the serving cell according to the radio link failure timer and the constant and/or radio link synchronization out-of-synchronization threshold (rlmInSyncOutOfSyncThreshold).

For example, for the wireless link synchronization out-of-synchronization threshold, when the wireless link synchronization out-of-synchronization threshold is set to 0, the terminal device can obtain the meaning of the predefined or pre-configured wireless link synchronization out-of-step threshold. The required BLER is less than or equal to 1%. The terminal device according to the correspondence between the BLER and the SINR (for example, according to the relationship between the BLER and the SINR of the frequency band or the cell or the beam preset in the terminal device, or the BLER and SINR of the frequency band or the cell or the beam in the terminal device, or The category of the terminal device, etc.), the threshold of the SINR corresponding to the BLER less than or equal to 1% can be obtained. The terminal device compares the measured signal quality of the serving cell (ie, the measured SINR result) with the SINR threshold to determine synchronization or out of synchronization. For the method of judging synchronization or out-of-synchronization, reference may be made to the prior art, and details are not described herein again. For example, for the radio link failure timer and the constant, the terminal device can determine the radio link failure and recovery according to the values of the timers and constants corresponding to the BLER configured by the configured BLER or URLLC service. For the method for determining the failure and recovery of the radio link, reference may be made to the prior art, and details are not described herein again.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the measurement method 300 may further include:

Step 302: The terminal device sends measurement report information to the network device, where the measurement report information includes a measurement result of the BLER or information of a cell that satisfies the measurement reporting condition.

In this embodiment, the step 302 is optional. After receiving the configuration information sent by the network device, the terminal device may perform BLER measurement and report the BLER measurement result or the information of the cell that meets the measurement reporting condition to the network device. However, it is also possible not to perform such reporting, but to adjust its behavior according to a preset policy, so that the SINR measurement reflects the actual BLER information or improves the BLER problem, thereby also implicitly The role of "giving the network device information about the actual BLER in the terminal device, ensuring the BLER requirement of the URLLC service, thereby ensuring the reliability of the URLLC service transmission". The preset policy may be a predefined policy, or the terminal device reports the policy to the network side.

In this embodiment, the terminal device may report the measurement result of the BLER to the network device, and the measurement result of the BLER may be obtained according to the measurement result of the SINR, or may be directly calculated by the terminal device, and the following is implemented by different implementation manners. Explain this. In addition, in this embodiment, the terminal device may report the BLER measurement result to the network device, but report the information of the cell that meets the measurement reporting condition to the network device, and the network device may determine, according to the determination, which cells satisfy the URLLC service. The BLER requires that the terminal device reports the measurement result of the BLER to the network device together with the information of the cell that meets the measurement reporting condition, thereby ensuring the reliability of the URLLC service transmission. In this embodiment, the information of the cell that meets the measurement reporting condition may be sent by using a cell list, or may be sent by other methods, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, the measurement report information is, for example, MeasurementReport, and the measurement result of the BLER or the information of the cell that satisfies the measurement reporting condition is included in, for example, MeasResults of the MeasurementReport. However, this embodiment does not limit this.

The above measurement report information is sent to the network device when the condition is met.

In this embodiment, the synchronization signal may be, for example, an SS/PBCH block. However, the present embodiment is not limited thereto, and the synchronization signal may be another synchronization signal. In the present embodiment, the reference signal may be, for example, a CSI-RS, but the embodiment does not limit this, and the reference signal may also be other reference signals, such as a demodulation reference signal (DMRS).

In the present embodiment, reference may be made to the prior art for the process and manner of performing SINR measurement, and details are not described herein again. In addition, in this embodiment, the terminal device may be based on a relationship between a BLER and an SINR of a frequency band or a cell or a beam set in a terminal device, or a historical data of a BLER and SINR relationship of a frequency band or a cell or a beam in a terminal device, or a terminal. The measurement result of the BLER of the frequency band or the cell or the beam is obtained according to the measurement result of the SINR of the frequency band or the cell or the beam. The terminal device can also obtain the measurement result of the BLER by other means, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, the triggering condition of the periodic triggering is, for example, the expiration of the timer, and the triggering condition of the event triggering is, for example, a formula for measuring the entry or exit condition of the event. For details, refer to the prior art, and details are not described herein again.

In this embodiment, in the case of event triggering, in one example, the terminal device may obtain the configuration parameter of the SINR according to the configuration parameter of the BLER in the configuration information, and use the SINR to evaluate the reporting standard, that is, according to the measurement result of the SINR. And determining, by the configuration parameter of the SINR, whether the event triggering trigger condition is met, for example, the SINR measurement result and the SINR configuration parameter are substituted into a formula for measuring an event entry or departure condition, and determining whether the event trigger trigger condition is met, and satisfying In the case, the above measurement report information is sent to the network device.
