First of all, for industrial wireless sensor scenarios, there are a wide variety of sensors with different uses. Some of these sensors require high reliability, low latency or large bandwidth, some require ultra-low cost and long battery life, and some require something in between. This part of equipment can be considered as some reduced capacity NR equipment (RedCap UE). Second, with the planning and development of smart cities, video surveillance and information collection are commonly used, and wireless devices used for such applications also have similar characteristics of the reduced-capability NR devices mentioned above. Finally, numerous wearable devices, such as smart watches, smart bracelets, health status monitors, etc., also have the characteristics of NR devices with reduced capabilities. For this type of NR equipment with reduced capacity, the original standards cannot well support it to achieve the best performance requirements.
基于上述原因,2021年3月,在第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project:3GPP)RAN#91e次全会上,针对版本17的降低能力NR设备的工作项目(参见非专利文献:RP-210918 Revised WID on support of reduced capability NR devices)获得批准。该工作项目将项目的适用场景确定为工业无线传感器,视频监控和可穿戴设备。该工作项目的目标之一是对降低能力的NR设备的功耗节省以及电池寿命增强的研究,包括减少下行控制信道(PDCCH)的监听,RRC非激活状态或空闲状态下的eDRX(扩展的不连续接收),和无线资源管理(RRM)测量放松。Based on the above reasons, in March 2021, at the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3rd Generation Partnership Project: 3GPP) RAN#91e plenary meeting, the work item for the reduced capacity NR equipment of version 17 (see non-patent literature: RP- 210918 Revised WID on support of reduced capability NR devices) was approved. This work item identifies the applicable scenarios of the project as industrial wireless sensors, video surveillance, and wearable devices. One of the goals of this work item is the study of power savings and battery life enhancements for reduced-capability NR devices, including reduced downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, eDRX (extended non-active) in RRC inactive or idle states. continuous reception), and radio resource management (RRM) measurement relaxation.
对于降低能力的NR设备的RRM测量放松主要包含针对邻小区测量的放松,RRC空闲态、非激活态下和连接态下都可以进行RRM测量放松。对于RRC连接态,网络可以给RedCap UE配置RRM测量放松准则的相关 参数,当RedCap UE满足RRM放松准则后通知给网络,由网络控制是否进行RRM测量放松以及如何进行RRM测量放松。The relaxation of RRM measurement for NR devices with reduced capabilities mainly includes the relaxation of measurement for neighboring cells. RRM measurement relaxation can be performed in RRC idle state, inactive state and connected state. For the RRC connected state, the network can configure the relevant parameters of the RRM measurement relaxation criterion for the RedCap UE, and notify the network when the RedCap UE meets the RRM relaxation criterion, and the network controls whether to perform RRM measurement relaxation and how to perform RRM measurement relaxation.
本发明讨论在RRC连接态下,RedCap UE如何根据网络的配置进行RRM测量放松,如何根据电平门限判断采取何种RRM测量放松的方法,以及源基站如何将UE的静止状态转发给目标基站,使得UE能更准确的进行RRM测量放松,既节约UE的功耗又不影响UE的移动性能。The present invention discusses how the RedCap UE performs RRM measurement relaxation according to the network configuration in the RRC connection state, how to judge which RRM measurement relaxation method to adopt according to the level threshold, and how the source base station forwards the static state of the UE to the target base station, The UE can perform RRM measurement relaxation more accurately, which not only saves the power consumption of the UE but also does not affect the mobile performance of the UE.

在RRC连接态下,基站可以通过RRC重配消息(RRCReconfiguration)对UE进行测量配置,测量配置中可以包含s-MeasureConfig这个信元,该信元中可以包含RSRP的门限配置。如果基站没有配置该信元,或者配置了该信元并且UE经过层3滤波得到的SpCell小区的RSRP低于配置的RSRP门限值,UE根据测量配置对邻小区进行测量;否则,UE可以不进行邻小区的测量。其中SpCell对于DC场景指的是MCG的PCell或者SCG的PSCell,对于非DC场景指的是PCell。In the RRC connected state, the base station can perform measurement configuration on the UE through an RRC reconfiguration message (RRCReconfiguration). The measurement configuration can include the information element s-MeasureConfig, which can include the RSRP threshold configuration. If the base station does not configure this information element, or if this information element is configured and the RSRP of the SpCell cell obtained by the UE after layer 3 filtering is lower than the configured RSRP threshold, the UE measures the neighboring cells according to the measurement configuration; otherwise, the UE may not Perform neighbor cell measurements. The SpCell refers to the PCell of the MCG or the PSCell of the SCG for the DC scenario, and refers to the PCell for the non-DC scenario.
在RRC连接态下,基站可以给UE发送测量配置,其中包括测量对象配置,测量报告配置,测量标识配置,质量配置,测量间隔(gap)配置等。在测量报告配置中可以配置触发测量报告的类型,包括周期测量报告和事件测量报告。对于事件测量报告,基站配置测量报告的触发准则也就是各种RSRP/RSRP以及时间等门限值,当满足准则时UE可以发送测量报告给基站。发送事件触发的测量报告后,在未得到基站响应前,UE将对该事件的测量报告周期地上报给基站。In the RRC connected state, the base station can send measurement configurations to the UE, including measurement object configurations, measurement report configurations, measurement identification configurations, quality configurations, measurement interval (gap) configurations, and the like. In the measurement report configuration, you can configure the types of triggered measurement reports, including periodic measurement reports and event measurement reports. For the event measurement report, the base station configures the trigger criteria of the measurement report, that is, threshold values such as various RSRP/RSRP and time, and the UE can send the measurement report to the base station when the criteria are met. After sending the event-triggered measurement report, the UE periodically reports the event-triggered measurement report to the base station before receiving a response from the base station.
在3GPP版本16中,RRC空闲态和非激活态的RRM测量放松被标准化并定义在3GPP最新标准规范TS 38.304(参见章节5.2.4.9)。基站通过系统消息广播RRC空闲态和非激活态下的RRM测量放松配置参数,包括低速移动评估和非小区边缘评估的开关、低速移动和非小区边缘的判决门限和判决时间参数等。如果基站同时配置了低速率评估和非小区边缘评估,UE评估自己是否为低速移动或者未处于小区边缘,如果UE评估结果是低速移动且未处于小区边缘,并且UE已经在选择或者重选到当前小区后执行了一段时间的正常邻小区测量(时间长度基站通过系统消息广播),则UE可以不执行邻区测量或者很长一段时间内不执行邻区测量;如果UE评估结 果是仅满足低速移动或未处于小区边缘的其中一种,则UE可以采用较长的时间间隔进行邻小区测量。如果基站仅配置了低速度评估,UE评估自己是低速移动,UE可以采用较长的时间间隔进行邻小区测量。如果基站仅配置了非小区边缘评估,UE评估自己是并未处于小区边缘,UE可以采用较长的时间间隔进行邻小区测量。In 3GPP Release 16, RRM measurement relaxation for RRC idle state and inactive state is standardized and defined in the latest 3GPP standard specification TS 38.304 (see section 5.2.4.9). The base station broadcasts the RRM measurement relaxation configuration parameters in the RRC idle state and inactive state through system messages, including the switch of low-speed mobile evaluation and non-cell edge evaluation, the decision threshold and decision time parameters of low-speed mobile and non-cell edge evaluation, etc. If the base station configures low-speed evaluation and non-cell-edge evaluation at the same time, the UE evaluates whether it is moving at a low speed or is not at the edge of the cell. After the cell performs normal neighbor cell measurement for a period of time (the length of time the base station broadcasts through system messages), the UE may not perform neighbor cell measurement or may not perform neighbor cell measurement for a long period of time; if the UE evaluation result only meets low-speed mobile or not at the edge of the cell, the UE can use a longer time interval to measure neighboring cells. If the base station is only configured with low-speed evaluation, and the UE evaluates that it is moving at a low speed, the UE can use a longer time interval to measure neighboring cells. If the base station only configures the non-cell edge evaluation, the UE evaluates that it is not at the cell edge, and the UE can use a longer time interval to measure neighboring cells.
对于RRC连接态,基站可以为UE配置用于RRM测量放松的静止评估准则和/或非小区边缘评估准则。当UE判断自己满足RRM测量放松的评估准则,将该信息显式地或者隐式地通过UE辅助信息或者测量报告上报给基站。基站收到该信息后,可以指示UE使能RRM测量放松。For the RRC connected state, the base station may configure the static evaluation criterion and/or the non-cell edge evaluation criterion for RRM measurement relaxation for the UE. When the UE judges that it satisfies the evaluation criterion of RRM measurement relaxation, it reports the information to the base station explicitly or implicitly through the UE assistance information or the measurement report. After receiving the information, the base station may instruct the UE to enable RRM measurement relaxation.
以下,对本发明的相关技术给出说明。Hereinafter, a description will be given of related art of the present invention.
通过本发明,UE可以根据基站不同的配置情况,在满足RRM侧放松准则时采用适宜的RRM测量放松方法,从而达到进一步节省功耗又不影响传输性能的效果。Through the present invention, the UE can adopt an appropriate RRM measurement relaxation method when satisfying the RRM side relaxation criterion according to different configuration conditions of the base station, so as to achieve the effect of further saving power consumption without affecting transmission performance.
以下,详细描述本发明对于上述问题的若干实施例。Hereinafter, several embodiments of the present invention for the above-mentioned problems are described in detail.
实施例1Example 1
图2是示出本发明的一实施例涉及的由用户设备执行的方法的示意图。Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a method executed by a user equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention.
下面,结合图2所示的基本过程来详细说明本发明的实施例1涉及的由用户设备执行的方法。Next, the method performed by the user equipment involved in Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described in detail in combination with the basic process shown in FIG. 2 .

Wherein, the conditions met by the static criterion, for example: the change of RSRP and/or RSRQ of the SpCell is less than the RSRP and/or RSRQ change threshold for a period of time, this period of time is the time threshold configured in the static criterion. If the UE determines through evaluation that it meets the RRM measurement relaxation criterion (that is, meets the static criterion), the UE sends a report to the base station.

RRM测量放松方法,可以包括但不限于:不进行邻区测量,或者很长一段时间(例如几个小时)不进行邻区测量(同频、异频、异制式可能会对应不同的时长),或者通过比例因子拉长邻区测量间隔(同频、异频、异制式可能会对应不同的比例因子)。RRM measurement relaxation methods may include, but are not limited to: no adjacent cell measurement, or no adjacent cell measurement for a long period of time (for example, several hours) (the same frequency, different frequency, and different standards may correspond to different durations), Or the measurement interval of adjacent cells may be lengthened by a scaling factor (same frequency, different frequency, and different standards may correspond to different scaling factors).
可选地,RRM放松测量配置或者使能RRM放松测量指示可以通过RRC专有信令或者MAC CE的方式由基站发送给UE。UE根据基站的指示或者配置,开始采用对应的RRM测量放松方法进行RRM测量放松。Optionally, the RRM relaxation measurement configuration or RRM relaxation measurement indication may be sent by the base station to the UE through RRC dedicated signaling or MAC CE. According to the instruction or configuration of the base station, the UE starts to use the corresponding RRM measurement relaxation method to perform RRM measurement relaxation.

可选地,该测量门限信息可以通过系统消息或者RRC专有信令(如RRC重配消息)发送给UE。Optionally, the measurement threshold information may be sent to the UE through a system message or RRC dedicated signaling (such as an RRC reconfiguration message).
当UE接收到基站连接态下RRM测量放松的配置或者使能连接态下RRM测量放松的指示后,UE将本小区的质量与上述连接态下本小区测量门限信息进行比较,判断在同频、异频、异制式的情况下,分别采用何种RRM测量放松方法。When the UE receives the configuration of relaxing the RRM measurement in the connected state of the base station or the instruction to enable the relaxing of the RRM measurement in the connected state, the UE compares the quality of the cell with the measurement threshold information of the cell in the above connected state, and judges that the same frequency, In the case of different frequencies and different systems, which RRM measurement relaxation methods are used respectively.
