下面结合附图，通过具体的实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的波束质量测量方法和设备进行详细地说明。
如图2所示，本申请实施例提供一种波束质量测量方法200，该方法可以由终端执行，换言之，该方法可以由安装在终端的软件或硬件来执行，该方法包括如下步骤。
S202：终端接收无线辅助设备转发的参考信号；其中，所述参考信号由网络设备发送，由所述无线辅助设备通过多个波束分别在不同时刻转发。
S204：对所述网络设备波束相同且所述无线辅助设备波束相同的所述参考信号进行联合处理，得到处理结果；所述联合处理包括层一滤波和/或层三滤波。
本申请各个实施例中提到的参考信号，可以用于终端对无线辅助设备的波束进行测量，这些参考信号可以是同步信号和物理广播块(Synchronization Signal and PBCH Block，SSB)，信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signal，CSI-RS)等下行参考信号。
本申请各个实施例中提到的无线辅助设备可以是大型智能表面(Large Intelligent Surfaces，LIS)，中继设备，背向散射体(backscatter)，卫星等。
如图3所示，图3是本申请实施例的波束质量测量方法应用场景示意图。 该实施例中，网络侧设备可以通过某一个波束或多个波束向无线辅助设备发送参考信号，无线辅助设备可以接收该参考信号，并通过多个不同的波束分别在不同时刻转发该参考信号。
在图3所示的实施例中，具体地，网络侧设备向无线辅助设备发送参考信号，无线辅助设备通过三个不同的波束分别在不同时刻转发该参考信号。由于网络侧设备与无线辅助设备之间的相对位置和信道条件保持准静态，所述参考信号在网络侧设备的具有一致的信号标识和/或端口(如图3中的端口K)，即网络侧设备的发送参数不变。由于无线辅助设备不会改变所述参考信号的序列信息/基带信息，终端通常无法区分相同标识、不同波束的参考信号。可以理解，如果终端对相同标识、不同波束的参考信号进行测量，获得的测量结果将无法准确反映无线辅助设备的多个波束的信道情况。
该实施例中，终端可以对所述网络设备波束相同且所述无线辅助设备波束相同的所述参考信号进行联合处理，得到处理结果。
如图4所示，图4所示的是具有三个转发波束(或将转发波束简称为波束)的无线辅助设备转发周期参考信号示意图。该例子中，终端可以对波束1的参考信号进行层一滤波的联合处理；终端可以对波束2的参考信号进行层一滤波的联合处理；终端可以对波束3的参考信号进行层一滤波的联合处理。
该实施例中，终端可以对相同标识或相同端口号的参考信号进行联合处理，这些标识或端口号相同的参考信号可以是网络设备通过相同的(或称同一个)波束发送给无线辅助设备的。
同时，为了实现终端对无线辅助设备波束相同的参考信号进行联合处理，在一个例子中，终端可以基于无线辅助设备的波束执行周期，来确定波束相同的参考信号。例如，无线辅助设备的波束执行周期为T，那么终端在时刻t1和在时刻(t1+T)接收到的参考信号通常是来自无线辅助设备的同一个波束。在另一个例子中，网络侧设备可以对无线辅助设备进行配置，在一个时间窗口W内出现的多个参考信号由无线辅助设备的相同波束转发，该时间窗 口用于终端测量参考信号。所述时间窗口W小于等于波束执行时间，大于等于所述待测量参考信号的周期P。
该实施例中提到的联合处理可以包括层一滤波，还可以包括层三滤波，还可以包括层一滤波+层三滤波，例如，终端将层一滤波的结果输入到对应的层三滤波器中进行层三滤波。
可选地，该实施实例中提到的处理结果包括所述无线辅助设备的多个波束的波束信息，该实施例还可以包括如下步骤：终端向网络侧设备上报所述波束信息，其中，所述波束信息包括多个最强的波束的标识。这样，后续网络侧设备还基于最强的波束的标识对终端进行波束指示，使得终端可以和无线辅助设备之间通过最强的波束进行通信，提高通信质量。
本申请实施例提供的波束质量测量方法，终端接收无线辅助设备转发的参考信号，并对网络设备波束相同且无线辅助设备波束相同的参考信号进行联合处理，得到处理结果，避免因终端对无线辅助设备不同波束的参考信号进行联合处理，或对网络侧设备不同波束的参考信号进行联合处理造成的波束质量测量准确度低的问题，可以提高波束质量测量的准确度。
可选地，实施例200的S202之前，终端还可以接收所述参考信号的配置信息，该配置信息可以由网络侧设备发送，该配置信息可以包括如下1)至4)中的至少之一。
1)所述参考信号的标识或端口号。例如，网络侧设备为终端配置终端需要测量的参考信号的标识或端口号。
2)所述参考信号的时频资源参数。例如，包括待测量的参考信号的时域资源，待测量的参考信号的频域资源，待测量的参考信号的发送周期等。
3)用于执行参考信号测量行为的时间配置参数。所述时间配置参数包括：测量行为的时间窗口的起始时间和结束时间，或者测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度、测量周期和相邻两次所述参考信号的测量行为的最小时间间隔。
终端可以根据该时间配置参数，得到需要进行参考信号测量的时间窗口的时域位置。
4)所述参考信号的联合处理准则；其中，所述联合处理准则包括：基于层一滤波的测量结果处理方法，以及基于层三滤波的测量结果处理方法。终端可以基于该联合处理准则来执行S204中的对参考信号联合处理的操作。
在一个例子中，终端接收到的配置信息可以用于配置上述四者的全部。在其他的例子中，如果配置信息未配置上述四者中的部分或全部，则终端可以通过其他的途径来获得上述四者中未配置的部分。例如，配置信息未配置上述4)中的联合处理准则，终端可以基于协议约定得到参考信号的联合处理准则等等。
如前所示，实施例200的S204中提到的联合处理包括层一滤波和/或层三滤波，以下将分方案一和方案二，分别对层一滤波的联合处理过程和层三滤波的联合处理过程进行说明。
方案一
实施例200的S204中提到的联合处理包括层一滤波，上述实施例中提到的配置信息还可以包括如下1)至4)中的至少之一。

2)所述无线辅助设备的波束执行的总时间长度和执行周期，所述执行周期小于测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度。
该波束执行的总时间长度可以参见图3中在时间轴上占用的总时间长度。该执行周期可以参见图3，图3示意性地显示出两个执行周期。
该例子中提到执行周期小于测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度，例如，测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度等于2个，3个，4个等更多个数的执行周期。可选的，通过协议预定义，当测量行为的时间窗口包含多个无线辅助设备的执行周期时，默认对层一滤波器进行配置。
3)所述无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量以及所述待测量的波束的波束执行时间。例如，在图4所示的例子中，待测量的波束的数量为3，具体为波束1、波束2和波束3。该配置信息还用于配置上述三个波束的波束执行时 间。在图4所示的例子中，每个波束的波束执行时间的长度为一个方格在时间轴上占用的长度。
4)所述无线辅助设备的波束筛选规则，所述波束筛选规则包括：从测量的多个波束中选择最强的Y个波束进行层一滤波或在层一滤波后选择Y个最好的测量结果上报给高层，Y是正整数。
该处提到的最强的Y个波束或Y个最好的测量结果，可以基于波束对应的参考信号的如下指标来衡量：参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power，RSRP)，参考信号接收质量(Reference Signal Receiving Quality，RSRQ)，接收信号强度指示(Received Signal Strength Indication，RSSI)等。
在方案一中，终端可以基于无线辅助设备的波束执行周期，来得到波束相同的参考信号。例如，无线辅助设备的波束执行周期为T，那么终端在时刻t1和在时刻(t1+T)接收到的参考信号通常是来自无线辅助设备的同一个波束。具体例如，该方案一中用于层一滤波的相邻两次参考信号的时间间隔是一个固定值，等于无线辅助设备的波束执行周期T。例如，用与参考信号测量的时间窗口的长度为nT，则时间窗口内有n个参考信号对应于无线辅助设备的相同波束。即可以从上述n个参考信号中选择若干个符合层一滤波的要求的测量结果输入到层一滤波器中。
在方案一中，终端对所述网络设备波束相同且所述无线辅助设备波束相同的所述参考信号进行联合处理，得到处理结果可以包括：终端根据所述配置信息，将所述所述网络设备波束相同且所述无线辅助设备波束相同的所述参考信号的测量结果输入到层一滤波器，得到所述处理结果。
在方案一中，终端还可以根据所述无线辅助设备的波束数量或者所述无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量，确定所述参考信号对应的并行的层一滤波的数量N。例如，无线辅助设备的波束数量等于所述参考信号对应的并行的层一滤波的数量N，或者，无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量等于所述参考信号对应的并行的层一滤波的数量N。其中，无线辅助设备的波束数量或者 所述无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量可以由上述配置信息配置。
在方案一中，终端还可以根据所述波束筛选规则从N个并行层一滤波结果中选择Y个结果上报给高层，该波束筛选规则可以由上述配置信息配置，这Y个测量结果可以是终端全部的测量结果中选择出的最好的一个或多个。
在方案一中，终端的物理层还可以测量所述无线辅助设备不同波束的所述参考信号的相关性，并执行以下至少一项：将相关性测量结果上报给高层；根据所述相关性测量结果，选择是否将所述无线辅助设备不同波束的所述参考信号的测量结果合并上报给高层。
方案二
实施例200的S204中提到的联合处理包括层三滤波，方案一前文的实施例中提到的配置信息还可以包括如下1)至3)中的至少之一。
1)所述无线辅助设备的波束数量，例如，在图5所示的例子中，无线辅助设备的波束数量为3。
2)所述无线辅助设备的波束执行的总时间长度和执行周期，所述执行周期大于测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度。
该波束执行的总时间长度可以参见图5中在时间轴上占用的总时间长度。在图5所示的例子中，波束执行的总时间长度等于执行周期的长度。
3)所述无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量以及所述待测量的波束的波束执行时间。例如，在图5所示的例子中，待测量的波束的数量为3，具体为波束1、波束2和波束3。该配置信息还用于配置上述三个波束的波束执行时间。
该例子中提到每个波束的执行周期大于测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度，例如，测量行为的时间窗口的时间长度小于或等于图5中所示的总时间长度。可选的，通过协议预定义，当测量行为的时间窗口小于波束执行的总时间长度时，默认对层三滤波器进行配置。
可选地，所述终端还可以根据所述无线辅助设备的波束数量或者所述无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量确定所述参考信号对应的并行的层三滤波的 数量N。例如，无线辅助设备的波束数量等于所述参考信号对应的并行的层三滤波的数量N，或者，无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量等于所述参考信号对应的并行的层三滤波的数量N。其中，无线辅助设备的波束数量或者所述无线辅助设备待测量的波束的数量可以由上述配置信息配置。
在方案二中，网络侧设备还可以对无线辅助设备进行配置，使得无线辅助设备转发的参考信号满足如下1)和2)至少之一。
1)在一个时间窗口内出现的所述参考信号由所述无线辅助设备的相同波束转发。该时间窗口可以是网络侧设备配置的用于终端进行参考信号测量，详见前文配置信息部分介绍的测量行为的时间窗口。
该例子中，在一个时间窗口内，网络设备会发送多次待测量参考信号，无线辅助设备在一个时间窗口内使用同一个波束对待测量参考信号进行转发。
2)不同配置的时间窗口对应的所述无线辅助设备的波束不同。
该例子中提到的不同配置的所述时间窗口，可以是网络侧设备为终端配置的、分别用于测量无线辅助设备的不同波束的时间窗口。
在方案二中提到的对所述网络设备波束相同且所述无线辅助设备波束相同的所述参考信号进行联合处理，得到处理结果包括：根据所述配置信息，将层一滤波器的输出结果输入到对应所述层三滤波器，得到所述处理结果。
可选地，在一个例子中，层一滤波器和层三滤波器是一一对应关系，一个层一滤波器对应无线辅助设备的一个转发波束。
或者，可选地，层一滤波器是无后效的滤波器，即当前时间窗口的滤波结果不会受到前一时间窗口的测量结果的影响。层一滤波器与层三滤波器是一对多的对应关系。层一滤波器的输出结果根据无线辅助设备的对应关系输入到对应的层三滤波器中。
为详细说明本申请实施例提供的波束质量测量方法，以下将结合两个具体的实施例进行说明。
实施例一
该实施例一对应于前文中的方案一。
该实施例中，如果终端需要测量的波束是通过无线辅助设备转发的多个波束，并且在无线辅助设备的转发波束的时间段内包含多个可以用于测量的参考信号(例如，属于同一RS配置的(例如周期的RS)，但在不同时间上的RS对应于无线辅助设备的不同波束)，那么网络侧设备(基站)为终端配置层一滤波器(L1filter)的参数，用于终端的滤波规则，使终端将相同波束的测量结果进行滤波。滤波规则可以包括相同波束的时间间隔，多个波束的筛选规则，测量辅助信息的协同上报等。
该实施例之前，基站可以通过基站与无线辅助设备的接口获知无线辅助设备的基本信息，例如包括无线辅助设备的转发波束，以及每个转发波束的执行时间长度和执行周期，基站到无线辅助设备的发送波束，该实施例中，假设无线辅助设备已经与基站保证时间同步/帧同步。
该实施例可以包括如下步骤：
步骤1：基站为终端配置需要测量的基站波束集合，并指示额外的测量准则，具体可以参见前文方案一中的配置信息部分的介绍。该步骤1可以通过以下方法一或方法二实施。
方法一：显式指示的方法，基站显式指示终端的测量和滤波行为。
例如，基站指定某个或者某几个基站波束对应的参考信号需要遵循额外的测量准则。
额外测量准则可以包括层一滤波的输入信息的测量要求，要求用于滤波的相邻两次参考信号的时间间隔是一个固定值，等于无线辅助设备的波束执行周期T。基站在配置参考信号的测量时间窗口时考虑无线辅助设备的波束执行的循环周期T。如果层一滤波要求的输入信息是至少n个测量结果，那么所述测量时间窗口的长度应不小于nT。
该例子中，终端根据配置的时间窗口和相邻两次参考信号的时间间隔确定层一滤波的输入数据的数量要求，例如，将时间窗口的长度除以相邻两次参考信号的时间间隔。
方法二：隐式方法：UE根据基站发送的配置信息1(无线辅助设备的转 发波束，以及每个转发波束的执行时间长度和周期)和配置信息2(需要测量的参考信号的配置，至少包括参考信号所在的时域资源)，确定UE的测量和滤波行为。
例如，UE根据配置信息1和配置信息2，以及协议定义的第一规则，确定UE的测量和滤波行为；其中，第一规则为：无线辅助设备的相同转发波束时刻所在的参考信号才能进行层一滤波，或者，进行层一滤波的多个时刻对应的无线辅助设备的转发波束需要相同。
可选的，层一滤波的多个时刻的间隔和时刻数量，可以是基站配置的，或者协议定义的，或者是UE实现。
额外测量准则可以包括同一端口或ID的参考信号的层一滤波的并行数量。可以理解，在一个时间窗口中，待测量参考信号被发送多次，并且被无线辅助设备以多个不同转发波束进行转发，层一滤波并行数量表示了需要测量的不同波束的数量。
额外测量准则可以包括多波束的筛选规则。一种筛选规则是终端从可测量的多个波束中选择最强的Y个波束进行层一滤波或者在层一滤波后选择Y个最好结果上报给高层。另一种筛选规则是基站为终端配置需要测量的波束，例如指示待测量波束在测量时间窗口中第一次出现的位置(距窗口开始边界的时间偏移量)。
可选地，终端测量的波束数量按照以需要的层一滤波器数量来判断，例如，待测量的波束数量等于层一滤波器数量。
步骤2：终端按照上述基站配置对参考信号进行测量，并将层一滤波结果上报给高层。
可选的，终端还可以接收无线辅助设备的多个波束的参考信号，并测量不同波束的参考信号间的相关性；终端根据相关性测量结果选择是否将两个或多个波束的参考信号的测量结果合并上报给高层。
可选的，终端可以上报信号相关性测量结果。
步骤3：终端在层三滤波后选择若干最强波束上报给基站。
如果上报波束中包含无线辅助设备的转发波束，终端在上报信息中单独指示波束ID，对应于步骤1中多个并行层一滤波器的编号。
可选的，通过协议规定或者基站配置，终端从普通配置的测量结果中选择N1个最强波束，从额外配置的测量结果中选择N2个最强波束，分别上报给基站。
