Technical field

The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular, to a non-connected state measurement method and terminal.

Background technique

In the enhanced carrier aggregation application (Enhancing Carrier Aggregation Utilization, EuCA) technology in the mobile communication system, the rapid activation / deactivation function of the carrier is introduced, and one of the methods is to introduce early idle state measurement. The network device controls the measurement of the terminal in the Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle state (RRC idle mode / state), and quickly configures and activates the CA carrier of the terminal based on the measurement result of the RRC idle state reported by the terminal.

Among them, the measurement behavior of the terminal is mainly based on the control of the measurement effective timer. During the operation of the measurement timer, the measurement behavior is continuously performed when the terminal capabilities and the network device configuration are satisfied. However, the connection configuration of the network device to the terminal is not considered, nor is the terminal's own status. Even if the terminal continues to make measurements, these measurement results cannot be reported in time before the terminal successfully accesses the network. At this time, the RRC idle state made by the terminal The measurement has little effect and will cause the terminal to consume power.

Please refer to FIG. 1, which illustrates a block diagram of a wireless communication system to which some embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network device 12. Among them, the terminal 11 may also be called a terminal device or a user terminal (User Equipment, UE), and the terminal 11 may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer (Tablet Personal Computer), a laptop computer (Laptop Computer), a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant) , PDA), mobile Internet device (Mobile Internet Device (MID), wearable device (Wearable Device) or vehicle-mounted device and other terminal side devices, it should be noted that, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal 11 is not limited Specific types. The network device 12 may be a base station or a core network, wherein the base station may be a base station of 5G and later versions (for example: gNB, 5G, NR, NB, etc.), or a base station in other communication systems (for example: eNB, WLAN access point, Or other access points, etc.), where the base station may be referred to as Node B, Evolved Node B, access point, Base Transceiver Station (BTS), radio base station, radio transceiver, basic service set (Basic Service Set, BSS), Extended Service Set (ESS), Node B, Evolved Node B (eNB), Home Node B, Home Evolution Node B, WLAN Access Point, WiFi Node, or in the field For some other suitable term, as long as the same technical effect is achieved, the base station is not limited to a specific technical vocabulary. It should be noted that in some embodiments of the present disclosure, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example, but it is not limited The specific type of base station.

The base station may communicate with the terminal 11 under the control of the base station controller. In various examples, the base station controller may be part of the core network or some base stations. Some base stations can communicate control information or user data with the core network through the backhaul. In some examples, some of these base stations may communicate with each other directly or indirectly through a backhaul link, which may be a wired or wireless communication link. The wireless communication system can support operation on multiple carriers (waveform signals of different frequencies). Multi-carrier transmitters can transmit modulated signals on these multiple carriers simultaneously. For example, each communication link may be a multi-carrier signal modulated according to various radio technologies. Each modulated signal can be sent on a different carrier and can carry control information (eg, reference signals, control channels, etc.), overhead information, data, etc.

The base station can wirelessly communicate with the terminal 11 via one or more access point antennas. Each base station can provide communication coverage for its respective coverage area. The coverage area of an access point may be divided into sectors that only constitute a part of the coverage area. The wireless communication system may include different types of base stations (eg, macro base stations, micro base stations, or pico base stations). The base station may also utilize different radio technologies, such as cellular or WLAN radio access technologies. The base station may be associated with the same or different access network or operator deployment. The coverage areas of different base stations (including the coverage areas of the same or different types of base stations, the coverage areas using the same or different radio technologies, or the coverage areas belonging to the same or different access networks) may overlap.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a non-connected state measurement method, which includes the following steps:

Step 21: In the case of access prohibition or access denial, suspend or stop the measurement of the non-connected state.

Among them, the access prohibition or access denial refers to that the terminal cannot access the network within a certain period of time, such as cell access prohibition. The non-connected state includes the RRC idle state and / or the RRC inactive (Inactive) state. The terminal suspends or stops the measurement in the idle state or the inactive state when access is prohibited or denied. The pause may refer to that the terminal temporarily stops the measurement in the non-connected state, or stops the measurement in the non-connected state within a period of time, and the measurement process may be continued after a period of time. Stopping may mean that the terminal does not start the measurement in the non-connected state, or the terminal starts the measurement in the non-connected state and stops the measurement process, and starts a new measurement process when the measurement is instructed next time. In this way, when the terminal is in the non-connected state, if the conditions of access prohibition or access denial are met, the measurement of the non-connected state is suspended or stopped without having to perform the non-connected state measurement before accessing the network, which can save the terminal consumption Electricity.

The following embodiment will further describe the non-connected state measurement method in conjunction with the application scenario:

Scenario 1: Access barring

In this scenario, the access barring situation may be: receiving an access barring instruction (Barring For Access Access Identity) of at least one access identity, and the access barring instruction is to bar the terminal's access attempt; and / or, receiving at least one The access prohibition duration of an access level, and according to the access prohibition duration, start or restart the corresponding access prohibition timer. Among them, the access prohibition instruction is used to indicate whether to allow (prohibit or allow) the access attempt of an access identifier, for example, the bit value in the access prohibition instruction is 0, indicating that access is allowed, and the bit value is 1 Indicates that access is prohibited. Assume that the terminal initiates one or more access attempts, each access attempt corresponds to one or more access identifiers, and the broadcast message of the serving cell where the terminal is located contains an access prohibition indication of one or more access identifiers , If the access prohibition instruction of the broadcast message of the serving cell indicates that all access identifiers corresponding to the terminal access attempt are access prohibited, then the access prohibition instruction is determined to be the access attempt of the terminal, if the access prohibition instruction is Indicating that at least one access identifier corresponding to the terminal access attempt is to allow access, then determining that the access prohibition indication is to allow the terminal's access attempt. For example, the terminal access attempt corresponds to the access identifiers 1 and 2. The broadcast message of the serving cell includes the access prohibition instructions of the access identifiers 1, 2 and 3. If the access prohibition instructions of the access identifiers 1 and 2 both indicate that access is prohibited If the access is prohibited, it is determined that the access prohibition instruction is to prohibit the terminal's access attempt; if one of the access identifiers 1 and 2 is the access prohibition instruction, the access prohibition instruction is determined to be the terminal's access attempt. Further, the case where the access prohibition duration of at least one access class is received, and according to the access prohibition duration, the corresponding access prohibition timer may be started or restarted may be assuming that the terminal initiates one or more access attempts, Each access attempt corresponds to an access category (Access Category, AC), and the broadcast message of the serving cell where the terminal is located contains one or more access prohibition durations. The terminal starts or Restart the corresponding access prohibit timer.

In this scenario, step 21 can be implemented by, but not limited to, the following ways:

Method 1: When the access attempt of the terminal is prohibited or the access prohibit timer is running, the measurement of the non-connected state is suspended or stopped.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by adding judgment conditions such as whether the access prohibition timer is running. When the access prohibition instruction sent by the network device is used to indicate that the access attempt of the terminal is prohibited, the terminal suspends or stops the measurement behavior in the idle state or the non-connected state. Or, when the terminal starts or restarts the access prohibition timer, and the access prohibition timer runs, the terminal suspends or stops the measurement behavior in the idle state or the disconnected state.

Method 2: If the access prohibition condition is met, that is, when the access attempt of the terminal is prohibited or the access prohibition timer is running, it is determined not to run the measurement valid timer corresponding to the measurement of the non-connected state. When not running, pause or stop the measurement in the non-connected state. Among them, the non-operation of the measurement valid timer includes: the measurement valid timer is paused, stopped or considered to be overtime.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by measuring whether the effective timer is running. The terminal can only perform the measurement in the non-connected state when the measurement valid timer is running. When the measurement valid timer is not running, the terminal cannot perform the measurement in the non-connected state. Specifically, when the access prohibition instruction sent by the network device is used to indicate that the access attempt of the terminal is prohibited, the terminal determines that the measurement valid timer corresponding to the measurement of the non-connected state is no longer running, such as suspending the measurement valid timer, Stop or think timeout. Or, when the terminal starts or restarts the access prohibition timer, and the access prohibition timer runs, the terminal determines that the measurement valid timer corresponding to the non-connected measurement is no longer running, such as suspending or stopping the measurement valid timer Or think timeout.

Further, in this scenario, after step 21, it also includes: when certain conditions are met, restoring the measurement of the non-connected state. Among them, the method of resuming measurement can be implemented by referring to but not limited to the following methods:

Method 3: When the access prohibition timer is suspended, stopped, timed out, or reaches the first preset time before the timeout, if the preset condition is met, the measurement in the non-connected state is resumed. Among them, the preset condition includes at least one of the following:

Measurement valid timer is running;

Received measurement configuration in non-connected state;

Receive an indication of measurement results in the non-connected state; and

The terminal capability supports the measurement configuration of the non-connected state. The measurement configuration includes at least one of a carrier, a partial bandwidth (Bandwidth Part, BWP), a sub-carrier spacing (Sub-Carrier Spacing, SCS), a cell list, and a cell type.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by increasing the judgment condition of the access prohibition instruction. Specifically, the terminal is in an idle state or an inactive state, and meets the access prohibition instruction to allow the terminal's access attempt, or, when the access prohibition timer pauses, stops, times out, or reaches the first preset time before the timeout expires If the terminal further satisfies at least one of the following conditions, the terminal resumes measurement in the non-connected state.

a) UE's measurement valid timer is running;

b) The UE receives the measurement configuration in the idle state and / or inactive state delivered by the network device;

c) The UE receives an instruction issued by the network device that can receive the measurement results reported in the idle state and / or the inactive state;

d) UE capability supports measurement configuration in idle state and / or inactive state.

Or, when the access prohibition instruction is to allow the terminal's access attempt, if the preset condition is satisfied, the measurement in the non-connected state is resumed. Among them, the preset condition includes at least one of the following:

Measurement valid timer is running;

Received measurement configuration in non-connected state;

Receive an indication of measurement results in the non-connected state; and

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by increasing the judgment condition of whether the access prohibition timer is running. Specifically, the terminal is in an idle state or an inactive state, and meets the access prohibition instruction to allow the terminal's access attempt, or, when the access prohibition timer pauses, stops, times out, or reaches the first preset time before the timeout expires If the terminal further satisfies at least one of the following conditions, the terminal resumes measurement in the non-connected state.

a) UE's measurement valid timer is running;

Method 4. When the access prohibition instruction is to allow the terminal to try access, or when the access prohibition timer is suspended, stopped, timed out, or reaches the second preset time before the time-out, resume or restart the non-connected state measurement corresponding to Measurement valid timer. During the operation of the measurement valid timer, the terminal can perform non-connected measurement.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by measuring whether the valid timer is running. Specifically, when the terminal is in the idle state or the inactive state, if the following conditions are met: the access barring instruction is to allow the terminal's access attempt; or, the access barring timer is paused, stopped, timed out, or the second pre-time before reaching the distance timeout When setting the time, the terminal runs the measurement valid timer corresponding to the measurement in the non-connected state, so as to realize the measurement in the non-connected state.

Scenario 2: access denial

In this scenario, the access rejection condition may be: receiving a radio resource control RRC reject message (RRC reject) or RRC release message (RRC Release), where the RRC reject message or RRC release message is an access attempt initiated by the network device After being sent later, the RRC reject message or RRC release message carries the access waiting time; according to the access waiting time, the corresponding access waiting timer is started or restarted.

Method 1: When the access wait timer is running, pause or stop the measurement in the non-connected state.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by adding judgment conditions such as whether the access wait timer is running. After receiving the RRC reject message or RRC release message, the terminal starts or restarts the corresponding access wait timer according to the waiting time carried in the RRC reject message or RRC release message. When the access wait timer runs, the terminal pauses or stops Measurement behavior in idle or disconnected state.

Method 2: If the access denial condition is met, that is, when the access wait timer is running, determine that the measurement valid timer corresponding to the measurement in the non-connected state is not running. When the measurement valid timer is not running, pause or stop the non-operation Connection state measurement. Among them, the non-operation of the measurement valid timer includes: the measurement valid timer is paused, stopped or considered to be overtime.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by measuring whether the effective timer is running. Specifically, after the terminal receives the RRC reject message or RRC release message, according to the waiting time carried in the RRC reject message or RRC release message, after starting or restarting the corresponding access wait timer, the terminal does not run the non-connected measurement station Corresponding measurement valid timer, such as suspending, stopping or considering timeout of the measurement valid timer.

Method 3: When the access wait timer is paused, stopped, timed out, or reaches the third preset time before reaching the timeout, if the preset conditions are met, the measurement in the non-connected state is resumed; where the preset conditions include the following At least one item:

Measurement valid timer is running;

Received measurement configuration in non-connected state;

Receive an indication of measurement results in the non-connected state; and

The terminal capability supports the measurement configuration in the non-connected state. The measurement configuration includes at least one of a carrier, a partial bandwidth BWP, a subcarrier interval SCS, a cell list, and a cell type.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by adding judgment conditions such as whether the access wait timer is running. Specifically, when the terminal is in an idle state or an inactive state, and the access wait timer is suspended, stopped, timed out, or reaches a third preset time before the time-out, if the terminal further satisfies at least one of the following conditions, the terminal resumes Non-connected measurement.

a) UE's measurement valid timer is running;

Method four: When waiting for the timer to pause, stop, time out, or reach the fourth preset time before the time out, resume or restart the measurement valid timer corresponding to the non-connected state measurement. During the operation of the measurement valid timer, the terminal can perform non-connected measurement.

This method is to control the measurement behavior of the non-connected state by measuring whether the effective timer is running. Specifically, when the terminal is in the idle state or in the inactive state, if the following conditions are met: when the timer is suspended, stopped, timed out, or reaches the fourth preset time before the time-out, the terminal runs the measurement valid timer corresponding to the non-connected state measurement To achieve measurement in the non-connected state.

Further, the above describes embodiments in which the terminal suspends or stops the measurement of the non-connected state and resumes the measurement of the non-connected state in different scenarios. The following embodiment will further describe the description of the terminal changing from the connected state to the non-connected state.

Before step 21, it also includes: receiving an RRC release message, where the RRC release message carries the measurement duration; if the RRC release message does not carry the access waiting time, then start the corresponding measurement valid timer according to the measurement duration; if The RRC release message carries the access waiting time, and then the corresponding waiting timer is started according to the access waiting time; and when the waiting timer is suspended, stopped, timed out, or reaches the fifth preset time before the time-out, according to the measurement duration , Start the measurement valid timer; when the measurement valid timer is running, perform the measurement in the non-connected state.

In other words, the terminal receives the RRC Release message in the RRC Connected state, and starts the measurement valid timer according to one of the following methods.

1. If the RRC Release message contains the measurement duration (or called the measurement effective time) and does not include the access waiting time, the measurement effective timer is directly started.

2. If the RRC Release message contains the measurement duration and includes the access wait time, the access wait timer is started first; further, when the access wait timer stops or times out, the measurement valid timer is then started.

In the non-connected state measurement method of some embodiments of the present disclosure, when the terminal is in the non-connected state, if the conditions of access prohibition or access denial are met, the measurement of the non-connected state is suspended or stopped without accessing the network The non-connected state measurement has been done before, which can save the power consumption of the terminal.
