具体实施方式
MDT测量通过UE进行测量上报，实现自动收集终端测量数据，可以检测和优化无线网络中的问题和故障。NR系统中，MDT测量时，UE可以通过测量多个beam来得到小区测量的结果。由于同一基站中各个UE的测量配置存在区别，各个UE可能对不同的beam进行测量，由beam测量结果得到小区测量结果的配置参数也存在区别。若根据各个基站不同的测量配置得到小区的测量结果，进而对基站的小区无线信号进行统一分析，准确程度较低。
本申请实施例提供了一种MDT配置方法，用于向基站发送包括beam配置信息的MDT配置信息，使得UE基于同样的beam配置信息进行MDT测量，基于同样配置信息的测量结果对基站的小区无线信号进行统一分析可以提高分析的准确程度。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法适用于多种无线通信系统，例如可应用于第五代(5 th generation，5G)移动通信系统中的新无线(new radio，NR)系统或未来的移动通信系统，本申请对此不作限定。

本申请实施例所涉及到的UE，可以包括各种具有无线通信功能的手持设备、车载设备、可穿戴设备、计算设备或连接到无线调制解调器的其它处理设备，以及各种形式移动台(mobile station，MS)或终端设备(terminal equipment)等。本申请的实施例对UE所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
下面以应用于5G移动通信系统为例进行介绍，请参阅图1，为本申请实施例的系统架构图。
gNB1和gNB2为连接到5GC的NR基站，为UE提供无线接入服务；gNB1和gNB2之间通过Xn接口连接，gNB与5GC之间通过NG接口连接。
核心网5GC为终端UE提供5G核心网的功能，包括接入和移动管理功能(access and mobility management function，AMF)和用户面功能(user plane function，UPF)：其中，AMF为核心网控制面网元，主要负责终端的接入和移动性管理；UPF为核心网用户面网元，主要负责数据包的路由转发、QoS管理等功能；
网元管理是指操作管理维护网管(operation，administration and maintenance，OAM)，主要负责网元的配置，本申请实施例中可用于下发MDT的测量配置。可以简称为网管。
跟踪收集实体(trace collection entity，TCE)是用于收集MDT数据的实体。需要说明的是，TCE可能集成于网元管理实体或者基站实体，本申请实施例中对此不做限定，仅以TCE单独存在为例进行介绍。

核心网或OAM均可向基站发送MDT配置信息，发送的该MDT配置信息中包含第一波束beam配置信息，第一beam配置信息包括以下中的一个或多个：参考信号类型、参考信号的平均beam数目或参考信号合并门限。第一beam配置信息的具体内容此处不做限定。
202、基站根据该MDT配置信息向UE发送MDT测量配置消息；
基站获取MDT配置信息后，可根据MDT配置信息向UE发送MDT测量配置消息，该MDT测量配置消息中包括第二beam配置信息，该第二beam配置信息和该第一beam配置信息相同，或者，该第二beam配置信息是对该第一beam配置信息处理后得到的配置信息。这里的处理 可以是通过对参数名称，信元结构，取值等的更改或转换将第一beam配置信息中的各个参数携带到MDT测量配置消息中，以使得MDT测量配置消息可以包括第一beam配置信息中的一个或多个参数或者这些参数的转换后的取值等，具体处理方式此处不做限定。
可选地，若MDT配置信息携带进行该MDT测量的区域信息，则基站可以只对由该区域信息确定的小区内的UE进行MDT测量。
可选地，基站可以根据预设规则确定配置MDT测量的UE。例如基站判断配置信息中携带的区域信息是否包括UE所在的小区，若包含则确定该UE为进行MDT测量的UE；或者判断UE是否签约同意允许收集数据，若同意则确定该UE为进行MDT测量的UE，具体的预设规则此处不做限定。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法，由于MDT配置信息中包含第一beam配置信息，基站根据第一beam配置信息向UE发送携带第二beam配置信息的MDT测量配置消息。UE可以根据该第二beam配置信息进行MDT测量。其中，该第二beam配置信息和该第一beam配置信息相同，或者，该第二beam配置信息是对该第一beam配置信息处理后得到的配置信息。由于UE上报的测量结果都为基于同样配置信息的测量结果，因此，根据这些测量结果对基站的小区无线信号进行统一分析，可以提高分析的准确程度。
为了便于理解本申请技术方案，下面通过具体的交互实施例对本申请实施例中的MDT配置方法进行说明。
基于图1所示的系统架构图，请参阅图3，本申请实施例中MDT配置方法的一个交互流程图；
301、核心网或网管向基站发送MDT配置信息；
为获取终端测量数据，核心网或网管可以向基站发送MDT配置信息，MDT配置信息为指示进行MDT测量所需的参数信息，本申请实施例中该MDT配置信息中包含第一波束beam配置信息，第一beam配置信息包括以下中的一个或多个：参考信号类型、参考信号的平均beam数目或参考信号合并门限。
示例性的，参考信号类型可以是同步信号块(synchronization signal block，SSB)或信道状态信息参考信号(channel-state information Reference signal，CSI-RS)，这里，SSB的类型又分为定义小区的同步信号块(cell defining SSB，CD-SSB)或者非定义小区的同步信号块(non cell defining SSB，non CD-SSB)，具体参考信号类型此处不做限定；
参考信号的平均beam数目是UE通过beam测量结果计算小区测量结果时选取的候选beam数目，取值为正整数，例如可以是3个或5个等，参考信号的平均beam数目的具体数值此处不做限定；
参考信号合并门限是由beam信号质量得到小区的信号质量过程中，候选beam的信号质量需要满足的门限。候选beam是信号质量超过该门限的beam，根据候选beam的信号质量可以计算小区的信号质量。参考信号合并门限的取值，例如可以是参考信号接收功率阈值，参考信号合并门限的具体数值此处不做限定；
子载波间隔是参考信号对应的子载波间隔，终端测量该子载波间隔对应的beam参考信号。子载波间隔例如可以是15千赫兹(kHz)，具体数值此处不做限定；
可选地，还可以包括是否上报beam测量结果，例如，0代表不上报beam测量结果，1代 表上报beam测量结果。若上报beam测量结果，则可以获取更丰富的测量信息。
302、基站确定进行MDT测量的UE；
基站接收到MDT配置信息后，基站可以根据预设规则确定配置MDT测量的UE。例如基站判断配置信息中携带的区域信息是否包括UE所在的小区，若包含则确定该UE为进行MDT测量的UE；或者判断UE是否签约同意允许收集数据，若同意则确定该UE为进行MDT测量的UE，具体的预设规则此处不做限定。
可选地，若MDT配置信息携带进行该MDT测量的区域信息，则基站可以只对由该区域信息确定的小区内的UE进行MDT测量。
303、基站生成MDT测量配置消息；
基站确定配置MDT测量的UE后，可根据MDT配置信息向UE下发MDT测量配置消息，该MDT测量配置消息中包括第二beam配置信息，该第二beam配置信息和该第一beam配置信息相同，或者，该第二beam配置信息是对该第一beam配置信息处理后得到的配置信息。这里的处理可以是通过对参数名称，信元结构，取值等的更改或转换将第一beam配置信息中的各个参数携带到MDT测量配置消息中，以使得MDT测量配置消息可以包括第一beam配置信息中的一个或多个参数或者这些参数的转换后的取值等，具体处理方式此处不做限定。
MDT测量配置消息包括第二beam配置信息，第二beam配置信息包括以下中的一个或多个：参考信号类型、参考信号配置信息、参考信号的平均beam数目和参考信号合并门限。其中，参考信号配置信息是参考信号的相关参数，例如参考信号的频点信息等，是基站具有的参数信息，例如，若第一beam配置信息中携带的参考信号类型为SSB，则基站可以查找对应的SSB频点信息携带在第二beam配置信息中。
可以理解的是，第二beam配置信息与第一beam配置信息相对应。基站可以根据第一beam配置信息为UE配置第二beam配置信息。
示例性的，若基站获取的第一beam配置信息包括：参考信号类型：SSB；参考信号的平均beam数目：3个；参考信号合并门限：参考信号接收功率(reference signal received power，RSRP)为105。
则基站可以配置第二beam配置信息为：参考信号类型：SSB；SSB的频点信息：100；SSB的子载波间隔：15kHz；SSB合并门限：RSRP为105；SSB平均beam数目：3个。
其中，SSB的频点信息为基站根据第一beam信息中参考信号类型SSB进行查询获取的信息。
可选地，还可以包括SSB的定时偏差等参考信号配置信息，可以理解的是，不同的参考信号类型对应的信元不同，具体此处不做限定。
304、基站下发测量并收集测量结果；
基站向确定的UE下发MDT测量配置消息，UE进行MDT测量并向基站上报MDT测量结果。
需要说明的是，向UE发送MDT测量配置消息的基站可能和UE上报MDT测量结果的基站不是同一个基站。
305、基站向TCE发送MDT测量结果；
基站接收UE上报的MDT测量结果后，可将该MDT测量结果上报给TCE。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法，由于MDT配置信息中包含第一beam配置信息，基站根据第一beam配置信息向UE发送携带第二beam配置信息的MDT测量配置消息。其中，第二beam配置信息和该第一beam配置信息相同，或者，该第二beam配置信息是对该第一beam配置信息处理后得到的配置信息。UE可以根据该第二beam配置信息进行MDT测量。由于UE上报TCE的测量结果都为基于同样配置信息的测量结果，因此，根据这些测量结果对基站的小区无线信号进行统一分析可以提高分析的准确程度。
在实际应用中，除了由核心网或网管生成MDT配置，发送给基站触发MDT测量，还可以又基站根据预设的规则生成MDT配置触发进行MDT测量，下面进行详细介绍。
基于图1所示的系统架构图，请参阅图4，本申请实施例中MDT配置方法的另一个交互流程图；
401、基站确定进行MDT测量的UE；
为获取终端测量数据，基站可以触发UE进行MDT测量。基站可以根据预设规则确定配置MDT测量的UE，例如基站判断UE是否签约同意允许收集数据，若同意允许收集数据则确定该UE为进行MDT测量的UE，具体的预设规则此处不做限定。
402、基站生成MDT测量配置消息；
基站可以根据预设规则或默认参数生成MDT测量配置，例如基站可以默认采用参考信号类型CD-SSB进行测量。具体规则或默认参数此处不做限定。
MDT测量配置消息中包含beam配置信息，beam配置信息包括以下中的一个或多个：参考信号类型、参考信号的平均beam数目或参考信号合并门限。
403、基站向UE下发测量并收集测量结果；
基站向确定进行MDT测量的UE下发MDT测量配置消息，UE进行MDT测量并向基站上报MDT测量结果。
404、基站将MDT测量配置和MDT测量结果发送至TCE；
基站接收UE上报的MDT测量结果后，可将该MDT测量结果，以及基站生成的MDT测量配置上报给TCE。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法，由于基站生成的MDT配置信息中包含beam配置信息，UE可以根据该beam配置信息进行MDT测量，并将测量结果和beam配置信息均上报TCE，由于上报TCE的测量结果都为基于同样配置信息的测量结果，因此，根据这些测量结果对基站的小区无线信号进行统一分析可以提高分析的准确程度。
在无线网络中，一个UE可能和多个基站通信，即双连接(dual-connectivity，DC)。这多个基站可能是属于同一制式的基站，例如均为4G基站，或者均为5G基站，也可能是不同制式的基站，例如一个是4G基站，另一个是5G基站。本申请实施例中，对于基站的具体形式此处不做限定。网络侧可以利用多个基站的资源为该UE提供通信服务，从而为UE提供高速率传输。DC中与核心网有控制面信邻交互的基站称为主基站(Master node，MN)，其他基站称为辅基站(secondary node，SN)。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法可以适用于双连接场景，下面介绍在双连接场景下，如何获取UE在同一位置时的主基站和辅基站的信号质量。基于图1所示的系统架构图，UE可以与gNB1、gNB2通信，请参阅图5，本申请实施例中MDT配置方法的另一个交互流程图。
501、核心网或网管向主基站发送MDT配置信息；
核心网或网管可以向基站发送MDT配置信息，MDT配置信息包括进行主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量的指示信息。该指示信息用于指示主基站上报主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量结果。
502、主基站确定进行MDT测量的UE；
步骤502与图3对应的实施例中步骤302类似，此处不再赘述。
503、主基站生成MDT测量配置消息；
基站确定配置MDT测量的UE后，可根据MDT配置信息向UE下发MDT测量配置消息，该MDT配置信息还包括进行主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量的指示信息，该指示信息用于指示处于双连接场景的UE进行主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量并上报测量结果。
504、主基站向UE下发测量并收集主基站信号质量测量结果；
当UE上报B1、B2、A3、A4或A5测量事件时，UE将向主基站上报主基站的服务小区的信号质量测量结果。此外，UE可以将辅基站下发的测量事件对应的辅基站的服务小区的信号质量测量结果上报主基站
505、主基站向TCE发送主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量结果；
主基站将接收的主基站信号质量测量结果上报TCE。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法，由于MDT配置信息中包含主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量的指示信息，基站向UE发送携带主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量的指示信息的MDT测量配置消息。UE可以根据该MDT测量配置消息将主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量结果进行上报，TCE可以接收主基站上报的主基站信号质量测量结果和辅基站信号质量测量结果，获取UE在同一位置的主基站和辅基站的信号覆盖情况。
下面介绍在双连接场景下，如何触发UE上报主基站和辅基站的信号质量。基于图1所示的系统架构图，请参阅图6，本申请实施例中MDT配置方法的另一个交互流程图；
601、核心网或网管向主基站发送MDT配置信息；
602、主基站确定进行MDT测量的UE；
603、主基站生成MDT测量配置消息；
步骤601至步骤603与图3对应的实施例中步骤301至步骤303类似，此处不再赘述。
604、主基站向UE下发测量并收集主基站信号质量测量结果；
基站向步骤602确定的UE下发MDT测量配置消息，UE进行MDT测量并向基站上报MDT测量结果。当UE满足周期测量或A2事件测量的条件时，将获取的主基站信号质量测量结果，即主基站的服务小区的信号质量测量结果发送给主基站。
605、主基站触发辅基站进行周期测量或A2事件测量；
主基站收到核心网或网管发送的MDT配置信息之后，主基站给辅基站发送消息，该消息触发辅基站配置UE进行周期测量或A2事件测量，该消息例如可以是辅基站修改消息，具体消息类型此处不做限定。可选地，该消息中可以携带核心网或网管发送的部分MDT配置信息。
需要说明的是，步骤604、605之间并没有严格的先后顺序，可以先执行步骤604，也可以先执行步骤605，此处不做限定。
606、辅基站向UE下发测量并收集辅基站信号质量测量结果；
辅基站向UE下发周期测量或A2事件测量，当UE满足周期测量或A2事件测量的条件时，将获取的辅基站信号质量测量结果，即辅基站的服务小区的信号质量测量结果发送给辅基站。
607、辅基站向主基站发送辅基站信号质量测量结果；
辅基站将UE上报的辅基站信号质量测量结果发送给主基站。
608、主基站将主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量结果上报TCE；
主基站将步骤607中获取的辅基站信号质量测量结果，以及步骤604中获取的主基站信号质量测量结果上报TCE。主基站可以通过一条消息同时发送主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量结果，也可以通过两条消息分别发送主基站和辅基站的信号质量测量结果，此处不做限定。
需要说明的是，在另一种可能的实现方式中，辅基站向UE下发测量并收集辅基站信号质量测量结果后，可以直接将辅基站信号质量测量结果发送至TCE，不需要发送给主基站。
需要说明的是，在对于多制式的双连接，即一个终端设备同时连接到两个不同通信制式的基站上，例如4G基站和5G基站，存在一种双连接称为非独立(non standalone，NSA)场景，在该NSA场景下的一个制式的基站，例如辅基站，并不能提供用于终端设备驻留的小区，即空闲(idle)态的终端设备不能驻留在NSA场景下的辅基站的小区中，即终端设备只能驻留在其中主基站对应的制式中。NSA一般指主基站为LTE基站，辅基站为NR基站。且一般只有主基站才和核心网或网管具有控制面连接，即只有主基站才能接收对应的MDT配置信息。这种场景下，若运营商想获得辅基站对应通信制式的小区的覆盖情况。在这种情况下，可以不执行本实施例中步骤603和步骤604。即主基站把部分MDT测量配置信息通知辅基站，由辅基站配置UE进行MDT测量，或者辅基站进行部分MDT测量。可选地，核心网或网管给主基站的MDT配置信息中指示了只对辅基站进行MDT测量。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法，由于主基站可以触发进行周期测量或A2事件测量，辅基站可以上报辅基站信号质量测量结果，因此，TCE可以获取UE的主基站和辅基站信号质量测量结果，获取UE在的主基站和辅基站的整体信号覆盖情况。
下面介绍在双连接场景下，UE上报主基站和辅基站的功率余量信息的过程。基于图1所示的系统架构图，请参阅图7，本申请实施例中MDT配置方法的另一个交互流程图；
701、核心网或网管向主基站发送MDT配置信息；
核心网或网管可以向基站发送MDT配置信息，本实施例中，MDT配置信息中包括：功率余量测量，该测量用于指示主基站上报服务小区的功率余量信息。
702、主基站确定进行MDT测量的UE；
步骤702与图3对应的实施例中步骤302类似，此处不再赘述。
703、主基站生成MDT测量配置消息；
基站确定配置MDT测量的UE后，可根据获取的MDT配置信息向UE下发MDT测量配置消息，MDT测量配置消息中包括：功率余量测量。
704、主基站向UE下发测量并收集主基站和辅基站的功率余量信息；
主基站向步骤702确定的进行MDT测量的UE下发MDT测量配置消息，UE接收该MDT测 量配置消息后进行MDT测量，其中包括主基站和辅基站的服务小区的功率余量测量，UE获取主基站和辅基站的服务小区的功率余量信息，并上报主基站。
705、主基站向辅基站发送请求消息；
主基站接收UE上报的主基站功率余量信息后，将向辅基站发送请求消息，该请求消息用于请求辅基站反馈辅基站小区对应关系，或者通知辅基站进行功率余量测量。
辅基站小区对应关系是指辅基站的服务小区的小区索引cell index与物理小区标识(physical cell identifier，PCI)或小区全局标识(cell global identifier，CGI)之间的对应关系。
706、辅基站向主基站发送辅基站小区对应关系；
辅基站向主基站发送辅基站小区对应关系，即辅基站的服务小区的cell index与PCI或CGI之间的对应关系。示例性的，cell index为3，对应的PCI为1。
需要说明的是，步骤705至步骤706可以在步骤703或步骤704之前或之后执行，此处不做限定。
707、主基站上报TCE主基站和辅基站的功率余量信息和小区对应关系；
主基站向TCE上报主基站的功率余量信息、主基站的小区对应关系、辅基站的功率余量信息和辅基站的小区对应关系。
本申请实施例提供的MDT配置方法，由于主基站可以获取辅基站的小区索引与物理小区标识PCI或小区全局标识CGI之间的对应关系，将功率余量信息、主基站和辅基站的小区对应关系上报，使得TCE可以将功率余量信息与小区对应进行分析。
