As shown in FIG. 2 , the method may include: S101-S103, wherein the execution order of each step is not limited. As shown in the figure, the method for measuring relaxation in the embodiment of the present application includes but is not limited to the following steps:

S101. The network device sends indication information to the terminal device.

The terminal device in this embodiment of the present application may refer to a terminal device in an unconnected state, and the unconnected state includes an idle state and an inactive state. Optionally, the present application may be applicable to stationary terminals in a non-connected state, such as industrial wireless sensors, video surveillance, etc., and of course may also be applicable to non-stationary terminals in a non-connected state. A stationary terminal in this application may refer to a terminal device in a non-moving state, and a non-stationary terminal may refer to a terminal device in a moving state.

In an embodiment, the network device may send indication information to the terminal device. Exemplarily, the network device may send the indication information in a broadcast manner, and the indication information may be aimed at a terminal device in an unconnected state. Optionally, the network device may send the indication information to the terminal device through signaling, and the signaling may be a system message broadcast, for example, a system information block (System Information Block, SIB), SIB1, SIB2 or other SIB, or a signaling It may be RRC-specific signaling, such as an RRC reconfiguration message.

In a possible design, the indication information may be used to indicate that the terminal device is allowed to perform relaxed measurement on the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point. In the embodiment of the present application, the high-priority frequency point may include a high-priority different-frequency frequency point and/or a high-priority different-technology frequency point, and the different-frequency frequency point refers to a frequency point different from the frequency point of the serving cell to which the terminal device belongs , Different technology frequency point refers to a frequency point that is different from the communication system used by the communication system used by the frequency point of the serving cell to which the terminal device belongs. The network device will configure the priority of each frequency point. If the priority of a different frequency point or different technology frequency point is higher than that of the frequency point of the serving cell to which the terminal device belongs, then the frequency point is a high priority frequency point. , the cell corresponding to the frequency point is the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point, and the neighboring cell corresponding to a high-priority frequency point may include one or more neighboring cells, and the one or more neighboring cells are different For frequency adjacent cells, correspondingly, the measurement of the one or more adjacent cells by the terminal device is also inter-frequency measurement.

In the embodiment of this application, measurement relaxation or relaxed measurement refers to increasing the measurement interval on the basis of the normal measurement interval, thereby saving the power consumption of the terminal device. The normal measurement interval refers to the measurement time interval used by non-measurement relaxation. The normal measurement Intervals can be predefined.

Specifically, optionally, if the network device allows the terminal device to perform relaxed measurements on neighboring cells corresponding to high-priority frequency points, the network device configures the indication information for the terminal device, that is, the network device sends the indication information to the terminal device, and The indication information can be configured as "true"; if the network device does not allow the terminal device to perform relaxed measurement on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high priority frequency point, the network device does not configure the indication information for the terminal device, that is, the network device does not Send the indication information to the terminal device.

In another possible design, the indication information may be used to indicate whether the terminal device is allowed to perform relaxed measurement on the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point. Specifically, optionally, no matter whether the network device allows the terminal device to perform relaxed measurement on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point, the network device will send indication information, if the indication information is the first identifier, it is used to indicate that the The terminal device performs relaxed measurement on the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point, and if the indication information is the second identifier, it is used to indicate that the terminal device is not allowed to perform relaxed measurement on the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point. Exemplarily, the first identifier may be "true" and the second identifier may be "false"; or, the first identifier may be "1" and the second identifier may be "0". For example, if the indication sent by the network device If the information includes "1" or "true", then the indication information indicates that the terminal equipment is allowed to perform relaxed measurement on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high priority frequency point; if the indication information sent by the network equipment includes "0" or "false", then the indication information The information indicates that the terminal device is not allowed to perform relaxed measurement on the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point.

It can be understood that the content indicated by the above indication information is only an example, and other content can also be used. For example, the indication information can be used to instruct the terminal device to perform a higher-priority frequency point corresponding to the adjacent cell than in the existing communication system. For the more relaxed measurement in the existing measurement relaxation methods, this application does not limit the specific indication content of the indication information. The ultimate purpose of the indication information is to control the measurement relaxation behavior of the terminal equipment on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high priority frequency point .

Optionally, the above instruction information may be existing instruction information in the existing communication system about instructing the terminal device to perform relaxed measurement on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high priority frequency point, that is, to reuse the instruction information in the existing communication system To indicate that a type of terminal equipment newly introduced in the communication system (such as NR Rel-17 terminal equipment) relaxes the measurement of adjacent cells corresponding to high-priority frequency points. Of course, the indication information can also indicate existing types of terminal equipment in the communication system (For example, NR NR Rel-16 terminal equipment) The measurement of neighboring cells corresponding to high-priority frequency points is relaxed. For example, the indication information may be a switch indication of the high priority measurement relaxation highPriorityMeasRelax in NR Rel-16. The highPriorityMeasRelax is used to indicate whether the network device allows the terminal device to relax the measurement interval of the adjacent cell corresponding to the high priority frequency point to exceed the value of Thigher_priority_search. Wherein, Thigher_priority_search=(60*Nlayers)s, wherein Nlayers is the number of high priority frequency points of network broadcasting. In this embodiment, signaling overhead in the network can be saved by reusing the indication information in the existing communication system to instruct the terminal device to perform measurement relaxation on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point.

Optionally, the above indication information may also be a new indication information designed for a new type of terminal equipment (such as NR Rel-17 terminal equipment) introduced into the communication system. For example, the indication information may be a new high priority measurement relaxation switch indication (such as a new highPriorityMeasRelax-17 designed for NR Rel-17 terminal equipment), the new high priority measurement relaxation switch indication The instruction may be used to instruct the newly introduced type of terminal equipment (such as NR Rel-17 terminal equipment) to perform relaxed measurement on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point, or the switch for the new high-priority measurement relaxation The instruction may be used to indicate that the newly introduced type of terminal equipment (for example, NR Rel-17 terminal equipment) performs a more relaxed operation than the existing NR Rel-15 and NR Rel-16 on the neighboring cells corresponding to the high-priority frequency points. Measurement. For the specific indication content of the new high-priority measurement relaxation switch indication, reference may be made to the description of the indication information in the foregoing embodiments, and details are not repeated here. In this embodiment, the measurement relaxation behavior of the terminal equipment of different versions on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point is controlled through different indication information, and the control mode is more flexible.

Among them, the above-mentioned new high priority measurement relaxation switch indication is different from the high priority measurement relaxation highPriorityMeasRelax switch indication in NR Rel-16. The fields where the two are located can be different, and highPriorityMeasRelax can be used to indicate NR Rel-16 The terminal device relaxes the measurement of the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point. The new high-priority measurement relaxation can be used to instruct the NR Rel-17 terminal device to relax the measurement of the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point.

Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the indication information.

S102. The network device sends a measurement relaxation criterion to the terminal device.

In an embodiment, the network device may configure a measurement relaxation criterion for the terminal device. Optionally, the network device may send the measurement relaxation criterion to the terminal device through signaling. The signaling may be system message broadcast, such as SIB1, SIB2 or other SIBs, or the signaling may be RRC-specific signaling, such as RRC reconfiguration news etc. For terminal devices in the non-connected state, the network device can configure the same measurement relaxation criteria for all terminal devices through the broadcast message of the broadcast channel, that is, the parameters in the measurement relaxation criteria are the same for all terminal devices and do not distinguish between terminal devices.

In a possible design, the measurement relaxation criterion may include one or both of the stationary criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion. Exemplarily, the measurement relaxation criterion may only include a stationary criterion (that is, a stationary criterion), that is, the network device only configures a stationary criterion for the terminal device; or, the measurement relaxation criterion may include a stationary criterion and a non-cell boundary criterion (that is, a not cell edge criterion), that is, the network device configures the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion for the terminal equipment.

Wherein, the non-cell boundary criterion may include one or both of the first non-cell boundary criterion and the second non-cell boundary criterion, and the first non-cell boundary criterion and the second non-cell boundary criterion may include different thresholds Values, such as different RSRP thresholds. The first non-cell boundary criterion may be an existing non-cell boundary criterion (such as R16 not cell edge criterion) in the existing communication system, and the second non-cell boundary criterion may be for a type of terminal equipment newly introduced in the communication system ( For example, a non-cell boundary criterion (such as R17 not cell edge criterion) designed for NR Rel-17 terminal equipment. The threshold included in the second non-cell boundary criterion is smaller than the threshold included in the first non-cell boundary criterion.

It can be understood that when the network device configures the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion for the terminal device, the network device may send the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion to the terminal device through the same message, or the network device may also send the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion to the terminal device through Different messages send the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion to the terminal equipment respectively.

The following is an example of the stationary criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion:

Static criterion: the static criterion may include a first parameter, and the terminal device may evaluate whether the terminal device satisfies the static criterion through the first parameter. Exemplarily, the first parameter may include a threshold value P, for example, within a certain predefined or network-configured time range TSearchDeltaP, when the reference Srxlev (ie SrxlevRef) of the serving cell and the RSRP measurement value of the serving cell When the difference between Srxlev is smaller than the threshold P, it is determined that the terminal device satisfies the static criterion. Specifically, it may be: (SrxlevRef-Srxlev)<P, wherein, the above Srxlev is the RSRP measurement value of the terminal device in the serving cell to which it belongs, and SrxlevRef is the reference Srxlev value of the serving cell, that is, the reference value compared by Srxlev. Relative to the reference Srxlev value (ie SrxlevRef) of the serving cell, the RSRP measurement value of the terminal device in the serving cell changes little. It should be noted that when the UE selects or reselects a new cell, or if (Srxlev-SrxlevRef)>0, or if (SrxlevRef-Srxlev)<P is not satisfied within the TSearchDeltaP time, the terminal device The value of SrxlevRef may be set to the current Srxlev measurement value of the serving cell. Optionally, the above time range TSearchDeltaP may be a parameter included in the first parameter.

Non-cell boundary criterion: the non-cell boundary criterion includes a second parameter, through which the terminal device can evaluate whether the terminal device satisfies the non-cell boundary criterion. Optionally, the second parameter may include an RSRP threshold value, and when the reference signal receiving power (Reference Signal Receiving Power, RSRP) measurement value of the terminal device in the serving cell is greater than the RSRP threshold value, it is determined that the terminal device meets the RSRP threshold value. The non-cell boundary criterion. Optionally, the network device can also configure a Reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ) threshold value, that is, the second parameter can also include an RSRQ threshold value in addition to the RSRP threshold value, when the terminal When the RSRP measurement value of the device in the serving cell is greater than the RSRP threshold value, and the RSRQ measurement value of the terminal device in the serving cell is greater than the RSRQ threshold value, it is determined that the terminal device meets the non-cell boundary criterion.

It should be noted that the content of the parameters contained in the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion above is only an example, and other content can also be used, which is not limited in this application.

The network device sends the measurement relaxation criterion to the terminal device, and correspondingly, the terminal device receives the measurement relaxation criterion.

S103. In a case where the terminal device satisfies the measurement relaxation criterion, the terminal device performs measurement relaxation on the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point according to the indication information.

In an embodiment, a terminal device in an unconnected state needs to measure the serving cell and other neighboring cells based on network configuration, and the terminal device performs measurement on the serving cell continuously. The measurement behavior of the terminal equipment on neighboring cells is restricted by relevant parameters in the system broadcast message. For example, the system broadcast message can include the RSRP threshold value SIntraSearchP for intra-frequency measurement initiation, the same-frequency RSRQ threshold value SIntraSearchQ, and the inter-frequency measurement initiation threshold value SIntraSearchQ. The RSRP threshold value SnonIntraSearchP and the RSRQ threshold value SnonIntraSearchQ for starting inter-frequency measurement.

For the adjacent cell corresponding to the same frequency point, if the RSRP measurement value Srxlev of the serving cell>the RSRP threshold value SIntraSearchP for the same frequency measurement startup, and the RSRQ measurement value Squal of the serving cell>the RSRQ threshold value SIntraSearchQ for the same frequency measurement startup, That is, when the channel quality of the serving cell is good, the terminal device may disable the measurement of all co-frequency neighboring cells, otherwise, start the measurement of co-frequency neighboring cells.

For low-priority or equal-priority NR inter-frequency or inter-technology frequency points, if the RSRP measurement value Srxlev of the serving cell > the RSRP threshold value SnonIntraSearchP for inter-frequency measurement startup, and the RSRQ measurement value Squal of the serving cell > inter-frequency Measure the RSRQ threshold value SnonIntraSearchQ enabled, that is, when the channel quality of the serving cell is good, the terminal device can turn off the measurement of all low-priority or equal-priority NR inter-frequency points or inter-technology frequency points corresponding to adjacent cells. Otherwise, start the measurement of neighboring cells corresponding to low priority or equal priority NR different frequency points or different technology frequency points.

For a high-priority NR inter-frequency or inter-technology frequency (that is, a high-priority frequency), the terminal device always starts the measurement of the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency.

In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device measures the neighboring cells according to the time length specified in the time length requirement (also called the cell measurement requirement). Three kinds of time lengths may be specified in the time length requirement, namely, the time length T _detect for cell detection, the time length T _measure for cell measurement, and the time length T _evaluate for cell evaluation. Among them, the terminal device measures the Reference Signal Received Power (Reference Signal Received Power, RSRP)/Reference Signal Received Quality (Reference Signal Received Quality, RSRQ) and physical identity of the neighboring cell within the duration of Tdetect to determine whether it meets the requirements of the cell reselection time. The reselection criterion when the device = 0. Further, the interval measurement is performed on neighboring cells that meet the reselection criteria, and the UE should measure the same-frequency/different-frequency SS-RSRP or SS-RSRQ at least within each Tmeasure time. The terminal device evaluates the interval measurement results within the duration of Tevaluate.

Specifically, the terminal device measures the same-frequency neighboring cells according to the duration specified in the duration requirement corresponding to the same-frequency measurement, and measures the inter-frequency neighboring cells according to the duration specified in the duration requirement corresponding to the inter-frequency measurement. in. The duration requirement corresponding to the same-frequency measurement defines T _detect , T _measure , and T _evaluate based on which the terminal device measures the same-frequency neighboring cells. Exemplarily, as shown in Table 1, it is an example of T _detect , T _measure , and T _evaluate defined in the duration requirement corresponding to the same-frequency measurement:

As shown in Table 1, the duration in the duration requirement corresponding to the same-frequency measurement is related to the Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle of the terminal device. For example, for the DRX cycle of 0.32s, T _detect can be 11.52x N1 x M2 seconds, or can be 36x N1 x M2 times the DRX cycle.

form one

The duration requirement corresponding to inter-frequency measurement defines T _detect , T _measure , and T _evaluate based on which the terminal device measures inter-frequency neighboring cells. Exemplarily, as shown in Table 2, it is an example of T _detect , T _measure , and T _evaluate defined in the duration requirements corresponding to inter-frequency measurement:

As shown in Table 2, the duration in the duration requirement corresponding to inter-frequency measurement is related to the Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle of the terminal device. For example, for the DRX cycle of 0.32s, T _detect can be 11.52x N1 x 1.5 seconds, or it can be 36x N1 x 1.5 times the DRX cycle.

form two

In order to save the power consumption of the terminal device, when the terminal device meets the measurement relaxation criteria configured by the network device, according to the indication information configured by the network device, high-priority frequency points (including high-priority NR inter-frequency points and/or or the adjacent cell corresponding to the different technology frequency point) performs measurement relaxation, that is, performs relaxed measurement on the adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point.

Exemplarily, the terminal device may use the first time interval to measure the neighboring cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point, wherein the terminal device uses the first time interval to perform measurement for each high-priority frequency point. The polling method can be used for measurement among the high-priority frequency points.

Optionally, the first time interval may be T _{higher_priority_search} , where T _{higher_priority_search} = 60*N _layers seconds, where N _layers is the number of high priority frequency points broadcast by the network device. Optionally, in order to further save power consumption of the terminal device, a more relaxed first time interval 60*T _{higher_priority_search} may be used. Optionally, in order to further save power consumption of the terminal device, a first time interval greater than 60*T _{higher_priority_search} may also be used to measure neighboring cells corresponding to high priority frequency points.

Wherein, the first time interval can be N*T _{higher_priority_search} or M hours, wherein, the N is the measurement interval scaling factor, and the N and M are predefined values. In some optional ways, in order to ensure the first time interval Greater than 60*T _{higher_priority_search} , N can be an integer greater than 60, and M can be an integer greater than N _layers .

In this embodiment of the present application, according to the category of criteria included in the measurement relaxation criteria configured by the network device for the terminal device, the network device can control the terminal device to control the high-priority frequency point corresponding to the Measurement relaxation behavior of neighboring cells:

If the terminal device satisfies the static criterion, and the signal received by the terminal device in the serving cell meets the first condition, the terminal device can use the first time interval N1*T _{higher_priority_search} or M1 hours to search for high priority according to the indication information configured by the network device. The adjacent cell corresponding to the frequency point is measured, wherein, the value requirement of N1 can refer to the value requirement of N in the foregoing embodiment, and the value requirement of M1 can refer to the value requirement of M in the foregoing embodiment.

In the second scenario, the network device is configured with both the stationary criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion (that is, the measurement relaxation criterion includes the stationary criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion), and the network device is configured with indication information. The terminal device meets the static criterion and the non-cell boundary criterion, and the received signal of the terminal device in the serving cell meets the first condition, the terminal device can use the first time interval N2*T _{higher_priority_search} or M2 according to the indication information configured by the network device The adjacent cell corresponding to the high-priority frequency point is measured every hour, wherein, the value requirement of N2 can refer to the value requirement of N in the foregoing embodiment, and the value requirement of M2 can refer to the value requirement of M in the foregoing embodiment .
