在NR中，特别是通信频段在FR2(7GHz以上)时，由于高频信道衰减较快，为了保证覆盖范围，需要使用基于波束(beam)的发送和接收。目前考虑的情况都是基站配置周期性，semi-persistent或非周期性的波束测量报告。
但实际上波束质量变化是终端最能及时了解到的，基站配置上报的周期的周期长度，或配置的非周期性上报的时机都不一定是最合适的。若周期太短，有可能两次上报的最佳K个波束都一样，没有变化，浪费信令。若周期太长，有可能波束发生了变化，但是没到上报时间，影响通信质量。而非周期性的上报同理，可能基站触发终端上报的时机过早或过晚，不是最合适的时机。
因此，如何设计波束报告的格式，是需要解决的问题。
在一些实施例中，波束报告最多包括4个参考信号标识(Reference Signal IDentity，RS ID)和各个RS ID对应的层1参考信号接收功率(Layer 1reference signal received power，L1-RSRP)或层一的信干噪比(L1 signal to inference and noise ratio，L1-SINR)，其中最强L1-RSRP/L1-SINR放在最前面，使用7比特(bit)反馈绝对值；其它的L1-RSRP/L1-SINR都反馈与最强L1-RSRP/L1-SINR的相对差值，每个差值对应4bit。
对于事件触发(event triggered)的波束报告可能有很多种情况，第一种是只包含新波束(new beam)，新波束又可以称为候选波束或相邻波束。第二种是只包含当前波束(current beam)，current beam又可以成为服务波束(serving beam)。第三种是包含current beam和new beam，而且三种之间还可能动态变化。因此，本公开提供一种通信方法，本公开通过终端在满足条件时向网络设备发送第一报告，第一报告中可以包括触发条件中的第一波束的信息，和/或第二波束的信息，以实现对第一报告的设计，第一报告中包括第一波束的信息，和/或第二波束的信息，以提高通信效率。

图2是根据本公开实施例示出的一种通信方法交互示意图。如图2所示，本公开实施例涉及通信方法，用于通信系统100，上述方法包括：
步骤S2101，网络设备102向终端101发送第一信息。
在一些实施例中，终端101接收网络设备发送的第一信息。第一信息用于指示终端在第一报告中上报第一波束的信息。第一报告也可以称为波束报告，终端可以在满足触发条件时，向网络设备发送第一报告。
在一些实施例中，第一信息可以通过无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control，RRC)配置。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中包括触发条件中第一波束的信息和/或触发条件中第二波束的信息。即，第一报告中可能不包括第一波束的信息。而当终端接收到网络设备发送的第一信息，则根据第一信息上报第一波束的信息，即在此情况下，第一报告中包括第一波束的信息。可以理解的是，若网络设备102未向终端101发送第一信息，或终端101未接收到第一信息，则终端可以自行确定第一报告中是否包括第一波束的信息。或者，即使终端接收到第一信息，也可以根据实际情况确定是否上报第一波束的信息，若终端接收到第一信息但未上报第一波束的信息，可以告知网络设备第一报告中不包括第一波束的信息，还可以告知网络设备第一报告中不包括第一波束的信息的原因。
在一些实施例中，第一波束包括当前波束，当前波束也可以称为服务波束(serving beam)，或者可以称为第一波束集合等，但不限于此。第一波束例如可以是正在使用的波束。又例如，第一波束可以是网络设备最近一次指示的波束(indicated TCI state)，或者最近一次发送的波束报告中的最佳 波束，或者最近一次发送的波束报告中的所有波束，或者最近一次发送的波束报告中质量最差的波束，本公开不做限定。第二波束包括新波束(new beam)，新波束也可以称为候选波束或目标波束或相邻波束等，但不限于此。第二波束例如可以是除第一波束以外的波束，例如可以是最近一次发送的波束报告中的非最佳波束，除了最近一次发送的波束报告中包含的波束以外的波束，或除了网络设备最近指示的波束以外的波束。
在一些实施例中，波束也可以称为空间接收参数(Spatial Rx parameter)、准共址(Quasi co-location，QCL)类型D(Type D)、空间设置(spatial setting)、空间接收滤波器(spatial reception filter)、空间传输滤波器(spatial transmission filter)、空间域滤波器(spatial domain filter)、传输配置指示状态(Transmission Configuration Indicator，TCI state)、联合传输配置指示状态(joint TCI state)、下行传输配置指示状态(Downlink TCI state，DL TCI state)、上行传输配置指示状态(Uplink TCI state，DL TCI state)、独立传输配置指示状态(unified TCI state)通用传输配置指示状态(common TCI state)以及空间关系信息(spatial relation information)等。波束可与以上任意一种进行替换。
在一些实施例中，第一信息的名称不做限定，其例如可以是“配置信息”、“指示信息”等。
可以理解，步骤S2101是可选的。
步骤S2102，网络设备102向终端101发送第二信息。
在一些实施例中，终端101接收网络设备102发送的第二信息，第二信息用于配置第二波束对应的参考信号资源。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中包括触发条件中第二波束的信息。终端可以接收网络设备发送的第二波束对应的参考信号资源。终端基于第二波束的参考信号资源，测量得到第二波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果，即得到第二波束的信息。
在一些实施例中，第二信息的名称不做限定，其例如可以是“配置信息”。
可以理解，步骤S2102是可选的。
步骤S2103，终端101满足触发条件，向网络设备102发送第一报告。
在一些实施例中，终端101在满足触发条件时，可以向网络设备102发送第一报告。其中，第一报告中包括触发条件中第一波束的相关信息和/或触发条件中第二波束的相关信息。
在一些实施例中，触发条件也可以称为触发事件，或事件(event)或条件(condition)。
在一些实施例中，触发条件包括以下至少一项：第一波束的质量小于或等于第一门限值；第二波束的质量大于或等于第二门限值；第一波束和第二波束的质量之间的差值大于或等于第三门限值。其中，第一波束和第二波束的质量之间的差值大于或等于第三门限值的情况，第二波束的质量大于第一波束的质量，即第二波束的质量比第一波束的质量高一个第三门限值。
在一些实施例中，波束的质量可以是波束对应的参考信号资源的L1-RSRP，或者可以是波束对应的参考信号资源的层1信号与干扰加噪声比(layer 1signal to interference plus noise ratio，L1-SINR)，或者可以是上行发送功率。可以理解，波束对应的参考信号资源的L1-RSRP值越大，则波束的质量越高。相应地，L1-SINR值越大，波束的质量越高。上行发送功率越大，波束的质量越高。
在一些实施例中，当监测的第一波束为联合(joint)或上行(uplink，UL)TCI state时，和/或监测的第二波束将用于joint或UL TCI state时，波束的质量可以是上行发送功率。
在一些实施例中，即使终端满足的触发条件中只包括第一波束，终端在第一报告中也可以上报第二波束的信息，相应地，即使终端满足的触发条件中只包括第二波束，终端在第一报告中也可以上报第一波束的信息。例如，终端可以在第一波束的质量小于或等于第一门限值时，向网络设备发送第一报告，第一报告中可以包括该第一波束的信息，也可以包括第二波束的信息，还可以包括该第一波束的信息和第二波束的信息。又例如，终端可以在第二波束的质量大于或等于第二门限值时，向网络设备发送第一报告，第一报告中可以包括第二波束的信息，也可以包括第一波束的信息，还可以包括第一波束的信息和第二波束的信息。
在一些实施例中，第一波束的信息包括以下至少一项：第一波束对应的ID；第一波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果。其中，第一波束对应的ID包括以下至少一项：第一波束对应的参考信号资源的ID；第一波束对应的传输配置指示状态(Transmission Configuration Indicator state，TCI state)的ID。
在一些实施例中，第二波束的信息包括以下至少一项：第二波束对应的ID；第二波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果。其中，第二波束对应的ID包括以下至少一项：第二波束对应的参考信号资源的ID；第二波束对应的TCI state的ID。
在一些实施例中，参考信号资源的测量结果包括以下至少一项：L1-RSRP；L1-SINR。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中包括N个ID和N个参考信号资源的测量结果，N为大于1的正整数。
可选地，N个ID中包括第二波束对应的ID。例如，N个ID可以是N个第二波束对应的参考信号资源的ID，或者可以是N个第二波束对应的TCI state的ID。相应地，N个参考信号资源的测量结果可以是N个第二波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果。即，第一报告中可以包括第二波束的信息。
可选地，N个ID中包括第一波束对应的ID和第二波束对应的ID。例如，N个ID可以是M个第一波束的ID和N-M个第二波束的ID。相应地，N个参考信号资源的测量结果可以是M个第一波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果和N-M个第二波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果。其中，M为大于0的正整数。即，第一报告中可以包括第一波束的信息和第二波束的信息。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的多个参考信号测量结果中，数值最大的参考信号测量结果可以在所有测量结果的最前面。且数值最大的参考信号资源的测量结果对应的ID也在第一报告所有ID的最前面。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的多个参考信号测量结果中，数值最大的参考信号测量结果上报的可以是绝对值，其余测量结果上报的可以是相对值。相对值是指与数值最大的测量结果之间的差值。数值最大的测量结果由第一数量个比特表示，其余测量结果对应的相对值由第二数量个比特表示。例如，数值最大的测量结果对应的绝对值可以用第一数量个比特表示。例如，第一数量可以是7，第二数量可以是4，但不限定于此。
在一些实施例中，N个ID中的一个ID与N个参考信号资源的测量结果中的一个测量结果具有对应关系。
在一些实施例中，参考信号资源可以是信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information-Reference Signal，CSI-RS)资源、同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block，SSB)资源、配置了追踪参考信号(tracking RS，trs)信息的CSI-RS资源。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的ID以CSI-RS资源的ID(简称CRI)或SSB资源的ID(简称SSBRI)为例，参考信号资源的测量结果以L1-RSRP为例，示例性地介绍第一报告中ID和参考信号资源测量结果的映射顺序(Mapping order)，如表1所示。
表1
其中，CRI or SSBRI#1表示编号为#1的CRI或者SSBRI。相应地，CRI or SSBRI#2表示编号为#2的CRI或者SSBRI，本公开不一一赘述。RSRP#1表示编号为#1的RSRP，RSRP#1与CRI or SSBRI#1对应，RSRP差值(Differential RSRP)#2表示第2个RSRP(RSRP#2)与第1个RSRP(RSRP#1)的差值。即，第1个RSRP以绝对值的形式(RSRP#1)存在于第一报告中，第2个RSRP以相对值的形式(Differential RSRP#2)存在于第一报告中，RSRP差值(Differential RSRP)#2与CRI or SSBRI#2对应。相应地，第3个RSRP也以相对值的形式(Differential RSRP#3)存在于第一报告中。Differential RSRP#3与CRI or SSBRI#3对应。其中，最强L1-RSRP(RSRP#1)表示数值最大的L1-RSRP，其对应的域可以在所有RSRP对应的域的最前面。相应地，最强L1-RSRP(RSRP#1)对应的ID，即CRI or SSBRI#1，其对应的域可以在所有ID对应的域的最前面。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的ID以TCI state ID为例，参考信号资源的测量结果以L1-RSRP为例，示例性地介绍第一报告中ID和参考信号资源测量结果的映射顺序(Mapping order)，如表2所示。
表2
其中，TCI state#1表示编号为#1的TCI state ID，表2中的各参数可以参考表1的介绍部分，本公开不在此处赘述。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中包括N-M个ID和N个参考信号资源的测量结果。N为大于1的正整数，M为大于0的正整数。
在一些实施例中，N-M个ID包括第二波束对应的ID，N个参考信号资源的测量结果包括M个第一波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果和N-M个第二波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果。例如，网络设备已知第一波束的ID，则对于M个第一波束，第一报告中只包括其对应的参考信号资源的测量结果，并不包括其对应的ID。
在一些实施例中，N-M个ID中的一个ID，与N-M个第二波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果中的一个测量结果具有对应关系。
在一些实施例中，可以通过指定位置的域上报第一波束的信息，指定位置的域包括指定位置的上报测量结果的域。终端会在指定位置的域上报第一波束的测量结果。网络设备可以自行确定该指定位置的域上报的测量结果对应的第一波束的ID。例如，当终端上报上报N个测量结果时，则有M个指定位置的域上报了测量结果，但没有对应的ID。而这M个测量结果对应的即是第一波束的ID。
在一些实施例中，若触发条件为：第一波束和第二波束的质量之间的差值大于或等于第三门限值。则数值最大的L1-RSRP对应的肯定不是第一波束，则第一波束的测量结果(Differential RSRP#4)对应的指定位置的域可以在所有RSRP对应的域的最后，也可以在仅次于最强L1-RSRP之后的域。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的ID以CSI-RS资源的ID(简称CRI)或SSB资源的ID(简称SSBRI)为例，参考信号资源的测量结果以L1-RSRP为例，示例性地介绍触发条件为：第一波束和第二波束的质量之间的差值大于或等于第三门限值时，第一报告中ID和参考信号资源测量结果的映射顺序(Mapping order)，如表3(顺序1)和表4(顺序2)所示。以M等于1为例，即，第一波束的数量为1个，第一波束对应的ID不需要指示，即第一报告中没有相应的指示域。第一波束的测量结果(Differential RSRP#4)对应的指定位置的域可以在所有RSRP对应的域的最后，如表3所示。Differential RSRP#4对应的指定位置的域也可以在仅次于最强L1-RSRP对应的域之后，如表4所示。
表3
表4
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的ID以TCI state ID为例，参考信号资源的测量结果以L1-RSRP为例，示例性地介绍触发条件为：第一波束和第二波束的质量之间的差值大于或等于第三门限值时，第一报告中ID和参考信号资源测量结果的映射顺序(Mapping order)，如表5和表6所示。
表5
表6
在一些实施例中，第一报告中包括第一指示域，第一指示域用于指示第一报告中包括第一波束的信息，且第一波束的信息包括M个第一波束对应的参考信号资源的测量结果；或，第一报告中包括第一指示域，第一指示域用于指示第一报告中不包括第一波束的信息。例如，第一指示域上为1时，表示第一报告中包括第一波束的信息，则可以按照表3-6中任意一项的方式上报，即可以不需要第一波束的ID信息。又例如，当第一指示域上为0时，表示第一报告中不包括第一波束的信息，则可以按照表1-2中任意一项的方式上报，则每个波束对应的ID都需要包含。
在一些实施例中，第一报告中的ID以TCI state ID为例，参考信号资源的测量结果以L1-RSRP为例，示例性地介绍若第一报告中包括第一指示域，第一报告中ID和参考信号资源测量结果的映射顺序(Mapping order)，如表7所示。
表7
表7中第一指示域为1bit指示域，但该举例只是示例性的，不限定于此。第一指示域可以在第一报告的最前面，也可以在第一报告的RSRP指示域前的任意指定位置，不限定于此。若第一指示域指示第一波束的信息存在，则第一报告只需要包含N-M个ID，M为第一波束的数量，此时终端上报了第一波束对应参考信号资源的测量结果，由网络设备自行确定第一波束对应的ID。若第一指示域指示第一波束的信息不存在，则第一报告中包含N个ID，例如是N个第二波束对应的ID。可以理解，若第一报告中第一指示域指示存在第一波束的信息，则第一报告中可以无需上报第一波束的ID，只需上报第一波束对应的参信号资源测量结果即可，以节省比特，节省资源。若第一报告中第一指示域指示不存在第一波束的信息，则网络设备得知第一报告中包括第二波束的ID和第二波束对应参考信号资源的测量结果，N个第二波束的ID和N个第二波束对应参考信号资源的测量结果一一对应。
在一些实施例中，第一报告还包括以下至少一项：能力索引；功率余量；最大允许辐射量MPE；上行发送功率；触发条件的ID，但不限定于此。

本公开提供一种通信方法，如下：
在一些实施例中，终端确定第一参考信号资源，第一参考信号资源用于确定event(也可以称为触发条件)中的第一波束或新波束，终端基于第一参考信号资源和event，在event触发条件被满足时，发送第一报告。
在一些实施例中，波束可以称为beam，spatial Rx parameter，QCL(quasi-co location)Type D，spatial setting，spatial reception filter，spatial transmission filter，spatial domain filter，TCI state，indicated TCI state，joint TCI state，DL TCI state，UL TCI state，unified TCI state，common TCI state，spatialrelationinfo等。
在一些实施例中，第一报告也称为波束报告。
在一些实施例中，第一报告包括以下至少一项：current beam相关信息；new beam相关信息。
在一些实施例中，current beam相关信息；current beam相关信息包括current beam对应的RS ID，L1-RSRP，或TCI state ID中的至少一项。RS包括SSB，CSI-RS或配置了(tracking RS，trs)信息的CSI-RS。new beam相关信息包括new beam对应的RS ID，L1-RSRP(或L1-SINR)，或TCI state ID中的至少一项。
在一些实施例中，第一报告格式包括以下至少一种：
1)、N个RS ID+N个L1-RSRP：
其中最强L1-RSRP上报绝对值，其它的上报与最强L1-RSRP的相对值。比如最大的L1-RSRP用7-bit指示，其它的相对值4bit指示。这种情况下，N个RS中可能有一个是与current beam关联，也可能没有与current beam关联的RS。例如，可以RRC配置current beam关联的RS ID必须包含。
在一些实施例中，Mapping order如上述实施例中的表1。
2)、N个TCI state ID+N个L1-RSRP：
其中最强L1-RSRP上报绝对值，其它的上报与最强L1-RSRP的相对值，比如最大的L1-RSRP用7-bit指示，其它的相对值4bit指示。这种情况下，N个TCI state中可能有一个是与current beam关联，也可能没有与current beam关联的TCI state。例如，可以RRC配置current beam关联的RS ID必须包含。
在一些实施例中，Mapping order如上述实施例中的表2。
3)、N-1个RS ID+N个L1-RSRP(每个方法中的N可以不一样)。
这里少一个RS ID，是因为该RS ID对应的是current beam的RS ID。
其中最强L1-RSRP上报绝对值，其它的上报与最强L1-RSRP的相对值。比如最大的L1-RSRP 用7-bit指示，其它的相对值4bit指示。这种情况下，对于event(例如可以是上述实施例的触发条件)：new beam比current beam高一个门限值(threshold)触发的波束报告，那么最大的L1-RSRP对应的肯定不是current beam，所以上报顺序可以是上述实施例的表3(顺序1)或表4(顺序2)。
4)、N-1个TCI state ID+N个L1-RSRP：
这里少一个TCI state ID，是因为该TCI state ID对应的是current beam的TCI state ID。
其中最强L1-RSRP上报绝对值，其它的上报与最强L1-RSRP的相对值比如最大的L1-RSRP用7-bit指示，其它的相对值4bit指示。这种情况下，N个TCI state中可能有一个是与current beam关联，也可能没有与current beam关联的TCI state。这种情况下，对于event：new beam比current beam高一个threshold触发的波束报告，那么最大的L1-RSRP对应的肯定不是current beam，所以上报顺序可以是表5(顺序1)或表6(顺序2)。
在一些实施例中，1)和3)之间可能动态切换，所以可以引入1bit，专门指示是否包含current beam，若包含current beam，则采用3)的方式，若不包含current beam，则采用1)的方式。
在一些实施例中，1)或3)的mapping order如上述实施例的表7，仅给出一个例子，其它例子同理。2)和4)同理。
在一些实施例中，一个L1-RSRP，current beam对应的L1-RSRP，采用绝对值上报。
在一些实施例中，第一报告还包括以下至少一项：
能力索引(Capabilityindex)：支持的探测参考信号端口的最大数量(the maximum number of supported SRS port)；
功率余量(Power headroom)；
最大允许辐射量(Maximum Permitted Exposure，MPE)：功率回退(Power backoff)；
上行发送功率(UL transmission power)：比如就是功率余量减功率回退(power headroom–power backoff)；
触发条件ID(即Event ID)。
在一些实施例中，第一波束，current beam，也可能被称为服务波束，serving beam，或者就称为第一波束或第一波束集合。
在一些实施例中，event包括以下至少一项：
第一波束质量低于门限，其中质量可以是L1-RSRP，L1-SINR，或质量还可以是上行发送功率(当监测的第一波束为joint或UL TCI state时，和/或监测的第二波束想用于joint或UL TCI state)；
第二波束质量高于门限(第二波束也称为新波束，目标波束等)；
第二波束比第一波束质量高一个threshold。
在一些实施例中，若event包括监测第二波束，终端基于基站配置确定第二波束对应的参考信号资源。
