具体实施方式
如背景技术所言，现有的终端虽然引入了低功耗唤醒信号机制以期改善终端的节能增益。但由于终端的通信主接收机仍然需要频繁唤醒以进行RRM测量，导致终端的节能增益实际上并没有得到改善。
具体而言，终端处于关机状态或者飞行模式时，网络可以通过发送低功耗唤醒信号来唤醒终端进行相关的数据传输。也即，终端通过接收低功耗唤醒信号来确定是否需要开机或者退出飞行模式进入激活状态。
但是，按照目前空闲态/非激活态下的RRM测量要求，终端侧的通信主接收机需要执行频繁的服务小区测量(每个DRX(非连续接收，Discontinuous Reception)周期(DRX Cycle)需要测量一次服务小区)和/或邻区测量。因此，即使引入低功耗唤醒信号，终端的主接收机仍无法进入深度睡眠状态或者关闭状态，无法获取低功耗唤醒信号带来的终端节能增益。
为解决上述技术问题，本发明实施例提供一种终端测量方法，所述终端包括第一接收机和第二接收机，所述第一接收机用于接收低功耗唤醒信号，所述方法包括：接收第一信息，所述第一信息至少用于指示第一参考信号的配置信息；通过所述第一接收机接收所述第一参考信号，以进行RRM测量。
采用本实施方案，在终端侧能够放松第二接收机的RRM测量活动，甚至允许第二接收机不进行RRM测量活动的情况下，第二接收机能够进入深度睡眠状态，从而极大地提高终端的节能增益。具体而言，终端采用独立于第二接收机的第一接收机执行RRM测量，使得 第二接收机可以不参与RRM测量活动，在没有数据传输的时候，第二接收机可以进入深度睡眠状态，从而达到终端节能的目的。
为使本发明的上述目的、特征和有益效果能够更为明显易懂，下面结合附图对本发明的具体实施例做详细的说明。
图1是本发明实施例一种终端测量方法的流程图。
本实施方案可以应用于终端同步/RRM测量应用场景，通过执行本实施方案，终端能够以更高的节能增益进行同步/RRM测量活动。
本实施方案可以由终端执行，所述终端包括第一接收机和第二接收机。具体而言，第二接收机可以例如是终端的通信主接收机，也即主要负责终端和网络设备和/或其他终端之间通信的接收机。进一步，第一接收机可以是区别于第二接收机的接收机，如第一接收机可以在终端和网络设备和/或其他终端通信期间起到辅助作用。
在一些实施例中，第一接收机和第二接收机在性能、软硬件配置等方面可以存在差异。例如，第一接收机的接收精度可以低于第二接收机的接收精度。
在一些实施例中，第一接收机可以例如是低功耗唤醒接收机(low-power wake-up receiver，简称LP-WUR)，用于接收低功耗唤醒信号(low power wake-up signal，简称LP-WUS)。
低功耗唤醒信号可以用于唤醒第二接收机。响应于接收到低功耗唤醒信号，第一接收机可以直接或间接唤醒第二接收机，以使第二接收机从(深度)睡眠状态或关闭状态切换至工作状态。处于工作状态的第二接收机可以接收数据，所述数据可以来自网络设备也可以来自其他终端。
在一些实施例中，第一接收机和第二接收机可以为终端中两个相独立的模块。若第一接收机处于工作状态，第二接收机可以处于深度睡眠或关闭状态，反之亦可。或者，第一接收机和第二接收机可以同时处于工作状态。
在具体实施中，下述步骤S101～步骤S102所提供的终端测量方法可以由终端中的具有RRM测量功能的芯片执行，也可以由终端中的基带芯片执行。
具体地，参考图1，本实施例所述终端测量方法可以包括如下步骤：
步骤S101，接收第一信息，所述第一信息至少用于指示第一参考信号的配置信息；
步骤S102，通过所述第一接收机接收所述第一参考信号，以进行RRM测量。
进一步，至少在执行步骤S102以通过第一接收机接收第一参考信号期间，第二接收机处于非工作状态。非工作状态可以例如是睡眠状态、关闭状态，还可以例如是非激活态、空闲态等。
进一步，第一参考信号可以例如是主同步信号(Primary Synchronization Signal，简称PSS)、辅同步信号(Secondary Synchronization Signal，简称S-SSS)或其他用于RRM测量的参考信号。在一些实施例中，第一参考信号也可称为低功耗参考信号(LP-SS)。
第一参考信号的配置信息可以包括第一参考信号的时域信息和频域信息。例如，第一参考信号的配置信息至少可以选自：所述第一参考信号的时频资源位置、第一参考信号的周期、第一参考信号的起始时间位置、第一参考信号的接收窗周期、第一参考信号的接收窗起始位置和第一参考信号的接收窗长度。
在一个具体实施中，第一信息可以是专用信令，专用于指示第一参考信号的配置信息。具体而言，所述专用信令可以例如是区别于SMTC(SSB测量定时配置，SSB Measurement Timing Configuration)的消息，SMTC用于配置第二接收机接收的第二参考信号的配置信息。
例如，第一信息和SMTC的时域位置可以不同。由此，网络设备可以灵活的在需要特定接收机进行RRM测量时发送相应的配置信息给该接收机。
在一些实施例中，第二参考信号和第一参考信号可以是相同的参考信号，也可以是部分相同的参考信号，还可以是完全不同的不同参考。其中，相同、部分相同、完全不同可以在参考信号的类型、生成序列，时域位置和/或频域位置的维度上表征。
在一个具体实施中，第一信息可以用于同时配置第一参考信号的配置信息和第二参考信号的配置信息。例如，第一信息可以包括SMTC，本实施方案通过在现有技术用于给第二接收机配置进行服务小区/邻小区测量的第二参考信号的SMTC中，额外指示用于给第一接收机进行服务小区/邻小区测量的第一参考信号，使得接收到采用本实施方案生成的SMTC的终端能够同时得到第一参考信号的配置信息和第二参考信号的配置信息。
在一个具体实施中，第一信息可以包括第二参考信号的配置信息，第一参考信号的配置信息至少根据第二参考信号的配置信息确定。也就是说，本具体实施中，第一参考信号和第二参考信号在配置上存在关联，从而第一信息可以仅包括第二参考信号的配置信息，或者第一信息可以包括第二参考信号的配置信息和第一参考信号区别于第二参考信号的那部分配置，以节省信令开销。
具体而言，第一参考信号的配置信息中至少一部分参数的配置，可以与所述第二参考信号的配置信息中相应参数的配置保持一致。
例如，第一参考信号的测量时机起始位置(即起始时间位置)可以与SMTC起始位置(即第二参考信号的起始时间位置)保持一致。
又例如，第一参考信号的测量时机的时间长度(即接收窗长度)可以与SMTC的时间长度配置(即第二参考信号的接收窗长度)保持一致。
进一步，对于第一参考信号的配置信息和第二参考信号的配置信息中配置不一致的第一参数，第一信息还可以包括所述第一参数。例如，第一参考信号的接收窗长度可以与SMTC的接收窗长度不一致，则第一信息可以包括第二参考信号的配置信息以及第一参考信号的测量时机的时间长度值。
响应于接收到第一信息，终端可以直接根据SMTC的起始位置确定第一参考信号测量时机的起始位置，如图2所示。然后，执行步骤S102时，终端可以根据第一参考信号的测量时机确定第一接收机进行RRM测量的时间位置。图2中，第一参考信号(图中标识为LP-SS)的起始时间位置和第二参考信号(图中标识为SMTC)的起始时间位置保持一致，第一参考信号的接收窗长度不同于第二参考信号的接收窗长度。
在一个具体实施中，对于第一参考信号的配置信息和第二参考信号的配置信息中配置不一致的第一参数，可以根据预设的偏移值确定第一参考信号的配置信息中第一参数的数值相对于第二参考信号的配置信息中第一参数的数值的偏移量。
相应的，终端在接收到第一信息后，可以根据所述第二参考信号的配置信息和所述偏移值确定所述第一参考信号的配置信息。
具体地，预设的偏移值可以由网络侧预先配置给终端。或者，预设的偏移值可以预定义确定。
在一些实施例中，第一信息可以包括第二参考信号的配置信息，以及第一参数的使能字段。
若第一参数的使能字段为0，表明第一参考信号和第二参考信号对第一参数的配置一致。相应的，终端可以直接将第二参考信号的配置信息确定为第一参考信号的配置信息。
若第一参数的使能字段为0，表明第一参考信号和第二参考信号对第一参数的配置不一致。相应的，终端可以将第一信息中第一参数 的具体数值加上预设的偏移值的结果，确定为第一参考信号中第一参数的具体数值。
第一参数可以例如是起始时间位置。
在一个具体实施中，第一信息还可以包括偏移值，用于指示所述第一参考信号的配置信息中第一参数的数值相对于所述第二参考信号的配置信息中第一参数的数值的偏移量。也就是说，本具体实施中，对于第一参考信号的配置信息和第二参考信号的配置信息中配置不一致的第一参数，可以由网络侧通过第一信息直接将具体的偏移值指示给终端。
第一参数可以包括起始时间位置。
在一些实施例中，第一参考信号的测量时机起始位置与SMTC的可以存在一个时间偏移量(offset)，该偏移量即为第一参数的偏移值同样携带于第一信息中指示给终端。
进一步，第一参考信号测量时机的时间长度可以与SMTC一致。相应的，第一信息中针对接收窗长度的参数可以仅包含第二参考信号的接收窗长度的具体数值。
响应于接收到第一信息，终端可以根据第一信息中第二参考信号的配置信息以及偏移值确定第一参考信号的配置信息。
例如，响应于接收到第一信息，终端可以直接根据SMTC的起始位置以及偏移值确定第一参考信号测量时机的起始位置，如图3所示。然后，执行步骤S102时，终端可以根据第一参考信号的测量时机确定第一接收机进行RRM测量的时间位置。图3中，第一参考信号(图中标识为LP-SS)的起始时间位置相对于第二参考信号(图中标识为SMTC)的起始时间位置偏移所述偏移值的距离，第一参考信号的接收窗长度和第二参考信号的接收窗长度保持一致。
在一些实施例中，第一信息可以同时包含偏移值和相同参数的不同配置。例如，第一信息可以包括SMTC、第一参考信号的起始时间 位置相对于SMTC的起始时间位置的偏移值(即时间偏移量)，以及第一参考信号测量时机的时间长度值。
在一个具体实施中，第一信息可以包括第一参考信号的配置信息以及第二参考信号的配置信息。也就是说，本具体实施中，网络侧通过第一信息直接配两套参考信号给终端，分别用于终端的第一接收机和第二接收机进行RRM测量。进一步，第一参考信号的配置信息和第二参考信号的配置信息中，针对同一参数配置的具体数值可以相同/不同。例如，第一信息可以通过两套配置信息指示相同起始时间位置和接收窗长度的第一参考信号和第二参考信号。又例如，第一信息可以通过两套配置信息指示相同起始时间位置、不同接收窗长度的第一参考信号和第二参考信号。
在一个具体实施中，在执行步骤S101之前/之后/同时，本实施例所述终端测量方法还可以包括步骤：接收指示信息，所述指示信息用于指示允许或不允许通过所述第一接收机进行RRM测量。
具体而言，指示信息可以由网络侧发送给终端。
在一些实施例中，指示信息可以通过系统信息承载。例如，网络可以通过系统信息块(System Information Block，简称SIB)携带指示信息(例如在SIB中增加1比特作为指示信息)，指示终端是否可以利用第一接收机测量第一参考信号以实现服务小区和/或邻区的RRM测量。
相应的，终端可以通过接收SIB确定是否可以利用第一接收机测量第一参考信号以实现服务小区和/或邻区的RRM测量。
进一步，系统信息可以由第二接收机接收。例如，处于非工作状态的第二接收机可以周期性唤醒以接收SIB，若接收到的SIB中携带有指示信息，则第二接收机将接收到的指示信息发送给第一接收机。其中，第二接收机接收SIB的周期可以长于现有协议规定的第二接收机进行RRM测量的周期。
在一些实施例中，第二接收机可以在SIB中的指示信息指示允许第一接收机接收第一参考信号以进行RRM测量时，将指示信息转告给第一接收机。
在一个变化例中，指示信息可以通过低功耗唤醒信号承载。例如，网络可以通过LP-WUS携带指示信息(例如在LP-WUS中增加1比特或利用预留的1比特作为指示信息)，指示终端是否可以利用第一接收机测量第一参考信号以实现服务小区和/或邻区的RRM测量。
相应的，终端可以通过接收LP-WUS确定是否可以利用第一接收机测量第一参考信号以实现服务小区和/或邻区的RRM测量。
进一步，LP-WUS可以由第一接收机接收，从而第一接收机可以直接获得指示信息以确定自身是否被允许进行RRM测量。
在一些实施例中，LP-WUS可以用于唤醒第二接收机接收数据。本实施方案在此基础上，在LP-WUS中额外携带指示信息，以指示第一接收机是否可以接收第一参考信号以进行RRM测量活动。
在一些实施例中，LP-WUS可以仅用于指示允许或不允许通过所述第一接收机进行RRM测量。也就是说，响应于接收到LP-WUS，第一接收机可以不唤醒第二接收机，而是根据指示信息的指示执行或不执行RRM测量。
在一个具体实施中，在执行步骤S102后，第一接收机通过接收第一参考信号可以得到RRM测量结果。基于第一接收机的RRM测量结果，可以设定第一接收机触发第二接收机进行服务小区和/或邻区测量的时机。
具体地，RRM测量结果可以包括服务小区信号质量。
在一些实施例中，在步骤S102之后，本实施方案所述终端测量方法还可以包括步骤：若服务小区信号质量小于第一预设阈值，唤醒第二接收机进行服务小区测量。
例如，网络侧可以预先设定第一接收机触发第二接收机进行服务小区测量的第一预设阈值。终端基于第一接收机测量的服务小区信号质量结果确定是否触发第二接收机执行服务小区的测量。具体而言，第一接收机通过测量服务小区对应基站下发的第一参考信号获取服务小区信号质量。
若终端基于第一接收机测量得到的服务小区信号质量小于第一预设阈值，则第一接收机触发第二接收机从睡眠状态(或者关闭状态)醒来执行服务小区测量。
在一些实施例中，在步骤S102之后，本实施例所述终端测量方法还可以包括步骤：若服务小区信号质量小于第二预设阈值，唤醒所述第二接收机进行邻小区(简称邻区)测量。
例如，网络侧可以预先设定第一接收机触发第二接收机进行邻小区测量的第二预设阈值。终端基于第一接收机测量的服务小区信号质量结果确定是否触发第二接收机执行邻小区的测量。具体而言，第一接收机通过测量服务小区对应基站下发的第一参考信号获取服务小区信号质量。
若终端基于第一接收机测量得到的服务小区信号质量小于第二预设阈值，则第一接收机触发第二接收机从睡眠状态(或者关闭状态)醒来执行邻小区测量。
进一步，被唤醒的第二接收机可以接收第二参考信号以进行同频小区测量，或者，进行异频小区测量。
例如，第二预设阈值可以进一步包括第一数值和第二数值，若终端基于第一接收机测量得到的服务小区信号质量小于第一数值，则第一接收机触发第二接收机从睡眠状态(或者关闭状态)醒来执行同频小区测量。若终端基于第一接收机测量得到的服务小区信号质量小于第二数值，则第一接收机触发第二接收机从睡眠状态(或者关闭状态)醒来执行异频小区测量。
在一些实施例中，第一预设阈值和第二预设阈值均可以由网络通过高层信令配置。第一预设阈值、第二预设阈值、第一数值和第二数值的具体数值，可以在实际应用中根据需要设定和调整。
在一些实施例中，服务小区信号质量可以基于参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Received Power，简称RSRP)或者参考信号接收质量(Reference Signal Received Quality，简称RSRQ)表征。
进一步，RRM测量结果还可以包括邻小区信号质量。
由上，采用本实施方案，在终端侧能够放松第二接收机的RRM测量活动，甚至允许第二接收机不进行RRM测量活动，从而极大地提高终端的节能增益。具体而言，终端采用独立于第二接收机的第一接收机执行RRM测量，使得第二接收机可以不参与RRM测量活动。
图4是本发明实施例一种终端测量装置2的结构示意图。本领域技术人员理解，本实施例所述终端测量装置2可以用于实施上述图1至图3所述实施例中所述的方法技术方案。
具体地，终端可以包括第一接收机和第二接收机，所述第一接收机用于接收低功耗唤醒信号。
进一步，参考图4，本实施例所述终端测量装置2，可以包括：第一接收模块21，用于接收第一信息，所述第一信息至少用于指示第一参考信号的配置信息；第二接收模块22，用于通过所述第一接收机接收所述第一参考信号，以进行RRM测量。
关于所述终端测量装置2的工作原理、工作方式的更多内容，可以参照上述图1至图3中的相关描述，这里不再赘述。
在具体实施中，上述的终端测量装置2可以对应于终端中具有RRM测量功能的芯片，或者对应于具有数据处理功能的芯片，例如片上系统(System-On-a-Chip，简称SOC)、基带芯片等；或者对应于终端中包括具有RRM测量功能芯片的芯片模组；或者对应于具有数据处理功能芯片的芯片模组，或者对应于终端。
图5是本发明实施例一种用于终端测量的通信方法的流程图。
本实施方案可以应用于终端同步/RRM测量应用场景。通过执行本实施方案，网络侧能够为终端配置合适的参考信号，以便终端以更高的节能增益进行同步/RRM测量活动。
本实施方案可以由网络侧执行，如由网络侧的网络设备执行，网络设备可以例如是基站。网络设备采用本实施方案通信的对端可以例如是上述图1至图3所示实施例中所述的终端。
在具体实施中，下述步骤S301～步骤S302所提供的用于终端测量的通信方法可以由网络设备中的具有RRM测量功能的芯片执行，也可以由网络设备中的基带芯片执行。
具体地，参考图5，本实施例所述用于终端测量的通信方法可以包括如下步骤：
步骤S301，发送第一信息，所述第一信息至少用于指示第一参考信号的配置信息，所述第一接收机接收所述第一参考信号以进行RRM测量；
步骤S302，发送所述第一参考信号。
本领域技术人员理解，所述步骤S301至步骤S302可以视为与上述图1所示实施例所述步骤S101至步骤S102相呼应的执行步骤，两者在具体的实现原理和逻辑上是相辅相成的。因而，本实施例中涉及名词的解释可以参考图1所示实施例的相关描述，这里不再赘述。
在一个具体实施中，在执行步骤S301之前/同时/之后，本实施例所述方法还可以包括步骤：发送指示信息，所述指示信息用于指示允许或不允许通过所述第一接收机进行RRM测量。
进一步，若指示信息指示允许终端通过第一接收机进行RRM测量，网络设备执行步骤S302以发送第一参考信号。
在一个具体实施中，在执行步骤S302之前/之后/同时，网络设备 还可以发送第二参考信号。相应的，若指示信息指示不允许终端通过第一接收机进行RRM测量，和/或，若终端根据第一接收机测量得到的服务小区信号质量触发第二接收机切换至工作状态，终端可以通过第二接收机接收到第二参考信号，以进行精度更高的RRM测量。
由上，采用本实施方案，网络设备通过发送供第一接收机接收的第一参考信号，使得终端通过第一接收机即可进行RRM测量活动。由于可以不参与RRM测量活动，第二接收机能够进入深度睡眠状态或者关闭状态，从而终端的节能增益得以提高。
图6是本发明实施例一种用于终端测量的通信装置4的结构示意图。本领域技术人员理解，本实施例所述用于终端测量的通信装置4可以用于实施上述图5所述实施例中所述的方法技术方案。
具体地，终端可以包括第一接收机和第二接收机，所述第一接收机用于接收低功耗唤醒信号。
进一步，本实施例所述用于终端测量的通信装置4可以包括：第一发送模块41，用于发送第一信息，所述第一信息至少用于指示第一参考信号的配置信息，所述第一接收机接收所述第一参考信号以进行RRM测量；第二发送模块42，用于发送所述第一参考信号。
关于所述用于终端测量的通信装置4的工作原理、工作方式的更多内容，可以参照上述图5中的相关描述，这里不再赘述。
在具体实施中，上述的用于终端测量的通信装置4可以对应于网络设备中具有RRM测量功能的芯片，或者对应于具有数据处理功能的芯片，例如片上系统(System-On-a-Chip，简称SOC)、基带芯片等；或者对应于网络设备中包括具有RRM测量功能芯片的芯片模组；或者对应于具有数据处理功能芯片的芯片模组，或者对应于网络设备。
在具体实施中，关于上述实施例中描述的各个装置、产品包含的各个模块/单元，其可以是软件模块/单元，也可以是硬件模块/单元， 或者也可以部分是软件模块/单元，部分是硬件模块/单元。
例如，对于应用于或集成于芯片的各个装置、产品，其包含的各个模块/单元可以都采用电路等硬件的方式实现，或者，至少部分模块/单元可以采用软件程序的方式实现，该软件程序运行于芯片内部集成的处理器，剩余的(如果有)部分模块/单元可以采用电路等硬件方式实现；对于应用于或集成于芯片模组的各个装置、产品，其包含的各个模块/单元可以都采用电路等硬件的方式实现，不同的模块/单元可以位于芯片模组的同一组件(例如芯片、电路模块等)或者不同组件中，或者，至少部分模块/单元可以采用软件程序的方式实现，该软件程序运行于芯片模组内部集成的处理器，剩余的(如果有)部分模块/单元可以采用电路等硬件方式实现；对于应用于或集成于终端的各个装置、产品，其包含的各个模块/单元可以都采用电路等硬件的方式实现，不同的模块/单元可以位于终端内同一组件(例如，芯片、电路模块等)或者不同组件中，或者，至少部分模块/单元可以采用软件程序的方式实现，该软件程序运行于终端内部集成的处理器，剩余的(如果有)部分模块/单元可以采用电路等硬件方式实现。
在一个典型的应用场景中，参考图7，终端51当前所处服务小区对应的基站52可以执行操作s501，以通过高层信令向终端51发送SMTC。SMTC具体可以包括SMTC的周期、起始时间位置以及SMTC长度。SMTC可以由终端51的第一接收机(如LP-WUR 511)接收，或者由终端51的第二接收机(通信主接收机512)接收。
响应于接收到SMTC，LP-WUR 511可以执行操作s502，以根据SMTC确定LP-SS的配置信息。例如，LP-WUR 511可以根据SMTC配置，确定用于同步/RRM测量的LP-SS的测量时机，其中，LP-SS的测量时机可以和SMTC配置保持一致或者存在一个时间偏移量。
进一步，基站52可以执行操作s503，以发送LP-WUS，并且LP-WUS包含指示信息，所述指示信息指示允许终端51通过LP-WUR 511进行RRM测量。
响应于接收到允许通过LP-WUR 511进行RRM测量的LP-WUS，终端51的LP-WUR 511执行操作s504，以在操作s502中确定的测量时机上执行服务小区和/或邻区的测量。相应的，基站52发送LP-SS以供LP-WUR 511测量。在此期间，通信主接收机512处于非工作状态。
进一步，基站52在执行操作s501时，还可以通过高层信令发送第一预设阈值和/或第二预设阈值，以建立LP-WUR 511触发通信主接收机512执行RRM测量机制。
例如，随着LP-WUR 511执行操作s504，可以获得服务小区信号质量。若LP-WUR 511确定的服务小区信号质量小于第一预设阈值，LP-WUR 511可以执行操作s505，以发送触发信号，触发通信主接收机512执行服务小区测量。
响应于接收到触发信号，通信主接收机512从非工作状态切换至工作状态，执行操作s506，以对服务小区进行RRM测量。相应的，基站52发送SMTC供通信主接收机512测量。
又例如，随着LP-WUR 511执行操作s504，可以获得服务小区信号质量。若LP-WUR 511确定的服务小区信号质量小于第二预设阈值，LP-WUR 511在执行操作s506时发送的触发信号可以用于触发通信主接收机512执行邻区测量。
响应于接收到触发信号，通信主接收机512从非工作状态切换至工作状态，执行操作s506，以对邻小区进行RRM测量。相应的，基站52发送SMTC供通信主接收机512测量。
在一个变化例中，操作s501中的SMTC还可以包括LP-SS的部分或全部配置信息。
在一个变化例中，操作s503可以在操作s501和/或操作s502的之前/之后/同时执行。
进一步，指示信息的携带主体可以不同，接收对象也可以不同。 例如，指示信息可以通过SIB发送给终端51，相应的，可以由通信主接收机512接收SIB，并将指示信息转发给LP-WUR 511。
在一个变化例中，操作s506中SMTC的发送可以是持续进行的。例如，基站52可以始终保持周期性地发送LP-SS和SMTC，以便终端51按需接收其中之一进行RRM测量。
本发明实施例还提供了一种计算机可读存储介质，所述计算机可读存储介质为非易失性存储介质或非瞬态存储介质，其上存储有计算机程序，所述计算机程序被处理器运行时执行上述图1至图3所示实施例提供的终端测量方法的步骤，或者，执行上述图5所示实施例提供的用于终端测量的通信方法的步骤。优选地，所述存储介质可以包括诸如非挥发性(non-volatile)存储器或者非瞬态(non-transitory)存储器等计算机可读存储介质。所述存储介质可以包括ROM、RAM、磁盘或光盘等。
