To facilitate understanding, some contents involved in the embodiments of this application are described below:

1. Basic concepts of DC and CA.

DC refers to the resource that provides two network nodes for the terminal. One of the network nodes is called the master node (Master Node, MN), and the other network node is called the secondary node (Secondary Node, SN). At each network node, CA is used, which configures the terminal with a series of service cells controlled by the network node, also called a cell group. The cell group controlled by the MN is the Master Cell Group (MCG), and the cell group controlled by the SN is the Secondary Cell Group (SCG). Each cell group includes a special cell (Special Cell, SpCell) and a series of secondary cells (Secondary Cell, Scell). In MCG, the special cell is called Primary Cell (PCell). In SCG, the special cell is called Primary Secondary Cell (PSCell). In a cell group, SpCell uses the primary carrier, while other secondary cells use secondary carriers. Resource scheduling within a cell group is performed by SpCell.

2. Idle or inactive measurement.

The network side device can instruct the terminal to perform measurements on carriers that can be configured as DC and CA when in the non-connected state (including idle and inactive states). During connection establishment/restoration or after entering the connected state, the terminal can indicate that it has The early measurement results are available, and then the measurement results are reported to the network-side device when the network-side device requests to report the early measurement results. The network side device can perform early measurement configuration on the UE through proprietary signaling (such as RRC Connection Release) or in the system broadcast message, such as the list of carriers/cells that need to be measured and the measurement duration. Early measurement allows the network-side device to configure DC and CA for the terminal based on the measurement results reported by the terminal immediately after the terminal enters the connected state, effectively shortening the DC/CA establishment delay.

The measurement reporting processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

Referring to Figure 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a measurement reporting processing method. As shown in Figure 2, the measurement reporting processing method includes:

Step 201: The terminal determines measurement behavior, which includes whether to perform target measurement;

The first timer times out;

The first timer stops;

The terminal initiates radio resource control RRC connection establishment;

The terminal initiates RRC connection recovery;

The terminal enters the RRC connection state.

In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first timer can be understood as timer T331, and the above-mentioned first measurement can be called idle measurement or inactive measurement, or can also be called early measurement in a non-connected state. The above-mentioned second measurement can be understood as an enhanced measurement, which can also be called an enhanced measurement of the first measurement or an early measurement, that is, a measurement performed at a time other than the measurement time corresponding to the first measurement, and the first measurement corresponds to the first measurement. The measurement result and the second measurement result corresponding to the second measurement are used for the same function. For example, the network side device is used to determine at least one of the configuration information of carrier aggregation and the configuration information of dual connectivity, that is, the above-mentioned first measurement result and the above-mentioned second measurement result can be used to determine the configuration information of carrier aggregation and At least one item of dual-connection configuration information. The measurement configuration parameters used in the second measurement may be the same as or different from the measurement configuration parameters used in the first measurement, and are not further limited here. In some embodiments, the above-mentioned enhanced measurement can be connected to an extension in the time dimension or a change in measurement timing, so that the accuracy or stability of the measurement results is enhanced.

It should be understood that the terminal may first determine the measurement behavior to determine whether to perform the first measurement and whether to perform the second measurement. If it is determined to perform the first measurement, the terminal may be in a non-connected state and the first timer is running. , The above-mentioned first measurement is performed, and if it is determined to perform the second measurement, the above-mentioned second measurement may be performed if the above-mentioned preset conditions are met.

It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the measurement behavior may be determined based on instructions from the network side device, or the measurement behavior may be determined based on preset rules.

Optionally, in some embodiments, before the terminal determines the measurement behavior, the method further includes:

The terminal receives target configuration from the network side device, and the target configuration is carried through dedicated signaling or broadcast messages;

The terminal determines the measurement behavior according to the target configuration.

In this embodiment of the present application, the network side device instructs the terminal's measurement behavior. Specifically, the network side device may determine whether the terminal performs the second measurement based on the measurement environment of the terminal, for example, based on whether the measurement frequency point belonging to FR2 is included. In this way, the terminal can flexibly instruct the terminal to perform corresponding measurement behaviors according to the actual situation to meet the measurement requirements, thereby avoiding unnecessary terminal power consumption or increase in signaling overhead caused by measurements performed by the terminal that do not meet the needs of the network side. In addition, the terminal measurements can be reduced while meeting the measurement requirements, thereby saving power consumption.

It should be noted that the above target configuration can be indicated implicitly or explicitly. For example, in some embodiments, the terminal determining the measurement behavior according to the target configuration includes:

If the target configuration includes measurement configuration parameters associated with the second measurement, the terminal determines to perform the second measurement.

In some embodiments, the target configuration includes at least one of the following:

First indication information, the first indication information is used to indicate whether to perform the first measurement;

second indication information, the second indication information being used to indicate whether to perform the second measurement;

In this embodiment of the present application, the network side device can send the above target configuration through a broadcast message or dedicated signaling, that is, the above target configuration can be carried through a broadcast message or dedicated signaling. In some embodiments, it can be assumed that the priority of the first measurement is higher than the priority of the second measurement. In this case, the priority of the first measurement result corresponding to the first measurement is higher than the priority of the second measurement result corresponding to the second measurement. priority.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the first indication information and the second indication information may respectively be used to indicate whether to execute First measurement and second measurement. The first indication information and the second indication information may be one or more bits. For example, when the first indication information is a first value, it indicates that the first measurement is performed; when the first indication information is a second value, it indicates that The first measurement is not performed. When the second indication information is the third value, it indicates that the second measurement is performed; when the second indication information is the fourth value, it indicates that the second measurement is not performed. For example, in some embodiments, one bit may be used to indicate whether to perform the first measurement, and another bit may be used to indicate whether to perform the second measurement. Wherein, when the value of the bit is 0, it means that the corresponding measurement is not performed, and when the value of the bit is 1, it means that the corresponding measurement is performed.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the execution rules of the first measurement and the second measurement may be indicated through third indication information. The third indication information may be one or more bits, and different values represent different execution rules. For example, when the third indication information is a fifth value, it indicates that the first measurement and the second measurement are performed. , or perform at least one of the first measurement and the second measurement, or perform the measurement with a higher priority among the first measurement and the second measurement; when the third indication information is the sixth value , it means that the first measurement and the second measurement are not performed.

For another example, in some embodiments, the execution rules of the first measurement and the second measurement may be jointly indicated by two bits. Wherein, when the value of the two bits is 00, it indicates that the first measurement and the second measurement are not performed, and when the value of the two bits is 01, it indicates that at least one of the first measurement and the second measurement is performed. item, when the value of the two bits is 10, it indicates that the measurement with higher priority among the first measurement and the second measurement is performed, and when the value of the two bits is 01, it indicates that the first measurement is performed. and said second measurement.

It should be noted that if it is agreed to indicate the execution behavior of the first measurement and the second measurement through the first indication information and the second indication information, or it is agreed to indicate the execution behavior of the first measurement and the second measurement through the third indication information, and the network side device does not send the corresponding indication information, it means It is not required to perform the corresponding measurement. For example, if the first indication information is not sent, it means that the first measurement is not required to be performed.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the terminal determining the measurement behavior includes:

The terminal determines the measurement behavior according to target rules, wherein the target rules include at least one of the following:

If the terminal determines not to perform the second measurement, perform the first measurement;

If the first measurement is not performed, perform the second measurement;

In the event that the result of the first measurement fails, perform a second measurement;

If the frequency point to be measured includes a second preset frequency point associated with the second measurement, the second measurement is performed.

In the embodiment of this application, the frequency point to be measured can be understood as the frequency point that needs to be measured determined by the network side device or terminal, and the frequency point to be measured is associated with the CA configuration and the DC configuration. Specifically, it may include one or more frequency points. The above target rules can be agreed by the protocol or configured by the network side device.

It should be understood that the above-mentioned fluctuation value can be based on an index value calculated in different ways such as difference, mean square error or discrete value, and is used to represent the stability of the measurement result of the first measurement. Taking the difference as an example for explanation, the fluctuation value can be understood as the difference between the measurement results corresponding to two adjacent first measurements within a certain period of time, for example. It may also be the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the measurement results corresponding to multiple first measurements within a period of time. The larger the fluctuation value, the worse the stability of the first measurement result, that is, the worse the reliability of the measurement result corresponding to the first measurement, and the second measurement is required to ensure the reliability of the CA and DC configuration.

It should be noted that if the measurement result is less than or equal to the first preset value, it can be understood that the measurement result is less than or equal to the first preset value. Specifically, the measurement result may include Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) and /. Or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), etc., which are not further limited here.

During the second measurement, a list of cells that need to be measured under each measurement frequency point is required; the above measurement threshold is used to compare with the first measurement result corresponding to the first measurement, for example, in the first measurement result corresponding to the first measurement When the value is less than the measurement threshold, the second measurement can be triggered.

Optionally, when the target timer is the first timer and the preset conditions are met, the terminal can start, restart or not stop the first timer, thereby causing the terminal to continue the first measurement or the second measurement. , for example, after meeting the preset conditions, if the terminal is still in the non-connected state, the terminal continues to perform the first measurement, and performs the second measurement after entering the connected state; after meeting the preset conditions, if the terminal is in the connected state, Then the terminal performs the second measurement. If the target timer is the second timer and the preset condition is met, the terminal may start or restart the second timer, thereby causing the terminal to perform the second measurement. For example, in some embodiments, the terminal performs the second measurement during the running period of the target timer in the connected state.
