Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a method for measuring MDT according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, including the following steps:
step 201, a terminal receives indication information of MDT measurement issued by a base station in a connected state or inactive state, where the indication information includes one or more of a measurement stop threshold and state information of MDT measurement record, and the state information is used to indicate a state of the MDT measurement record of the terminal.
The state information may indicate that the terminal performs MDT measurement in one or more of an idle state, an inactive state, and a connected state. When the state information indicates that the terminal performs MDT measurement in multiple states, the multiple states may be any two combinations of three states, i.e., idle state, inactive state, and connection state, for example: and indicating that the MDT measurement is carried out in the idle state and the inactive state, or indicating that the MDT measurement is carried out in the idle state and the connected state, or indicating that the MDT measurement is carried out in the inactive state and the connected state.
The measurement stop threshold may be a threshold for instructing the terminal to stop MDT measurement, for example: a measurement record quantity threshold (LM) or a measurement duration threshold, etc.
Step 202, the terminal performs the MDT measurement according to the indication information and records the MDT measurement result.
The step may be that the terminal performs MDT measurement and records in at least one of an idle state, a connected state, and an inactive state. And the status of performing the MDT measurement may be indicated by the above-mentioned status information.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the status information may be carried by the indication information, and if the indication information only includes the measurement stop threshold, that is, does not include the status information, the status information may be a terminal advance terminal, for example: the base station is configured to configure the terminal in advance, and step 202 may be that the terminal performs MDT measurement according to the indication information and pre-obtained state information, and records an MDT measurement result, where the pre-obtained state information is used to indicate a state of MDT measurement record of the terminal. This may reduce signaling overhead.
In addition, it should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the measurement content of the MDT measurement is not limited, and may be any relevant information of network optimization required by the measurement network side, for example: reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP), Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), or Reference Signal Receiving Quality (RSRQ), etc., which are not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
Through the steps, the terminal can perform MDT measurement in one or more states of idle state, connection state and inactive state, so that the terminal is applied to a 5G system and the effect of network optimization of the 5G system is improved. And when the measurement stop threshold is met, the MDT measurement can be stopped, so that the effect of saving the power consumption of the terminal is achieved.
The method can be applied to a 5G system, but is not limited to the following, for example: but also to future 6G systems, etc.
In the embodiment of the invention, a terminal receives indication information of MDT measurement issued by a configuration base station in a connection state or inactive state, wherein the indication information comprises one or more of a measurement stop threshold and state information of MDT measurement record, and the state information is used for indicating the state of the MDT measurement record of the terminal; and the terminal carries out MDT measurement according to the indication information and records the MDT measurement result. The terminal carries out MDT measurement according to the indication information, so that the terminal can be used for a 5G system, and the network performance of the 5G system can be improved.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of another MDT measurement method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, including the following steps:
step 301, the terminal receives indication information of MDT measurement issued by the base station in a connected state or inactive state, where the indication information includes one or more of a measurement stop threshold and state information of MDT measurement record, and the state information is used to indicate a state of the MDT measurement record of the terminal.
As an optional implementation manner, the indication information further includes at least one of the following:
the type information of the measurement signal, the reported measurement signal power, the reported measurement signal quality and the MDT measurement area parameter;
wherein the MDT measurement area parameter is used to indicate an area where MDT measurement is performed.
The type information of the measurement signal may indicate a signal type of the terminal performing the MDT measurement, that is, when the terminal performs the MDT measurement, the measurement signal corresponding to the type information is measured, so as to improve the accuracy of the MDT measurement.
The reported measurement signal power and reported measurement signal quality can represent the measurement signal power and the measurement signal quality of the MDT measurement result reported by the terminal, so that the terminal needs to report according to the reported measurement signal power and the reported measurement signal quality when reporting the MDT measurement result, and the reporting effect of the MDT measurement result is improved.
The MDT measurement area parameter may instruct the terminal to perform MDT measurement in a specific area, for example: the MDT measurement area parameter includes at least one of:
a network slice information list (slice list), parameter information of an access paging Area (RAN paging Area), parameter information of an access notification Area (RAN notification Area), parameter information of an access Location Area (RAN Location Area), and parameter information of a System message effective Area (System information Area).
The terminal can perform MDT measurement in the corresponding area through the MDT measurement area parameters, so that the accuracy of the MDT measurement is improved, and the power consumption of the terminal can be saved, because the terminal does not need to perform the MDT measurement in all areas.
And step 302, the terminal performs MDT measurement according to the indication information and records the MDT measurement result.
As an optional implementation manner, the indication information includes a measurement stop threshold;
the terminal carries out MDT measurement according to the indication information and records the MDT measurement result, and the method comprises the following steps:
the terminal carries out MDT measurement in one or more states of idle state, connection state and inactive state and records the MDT measurement result;
and the terminal stops the MDT measurement when the MDT measurement of the terminal meets the measurement stop threshold.
The MDT measurement of the terminal satisfies the measurement stop threshold, where the relevant parameter of the MDT measurement of the terminal satisfies the measurement stop threshold, for example: the measurement duration or the measurement data amount etc. satisfy the respective thresholds. And the fact that the MDT measurement of the terminal satisfies the measurement stop threshold may also be understood as that the MDT measurement task of the terminal is completed.
And because the MDT measurement is stopped when the measurement stop threshold is met, the terminal can be prevented from always performing the MDT measurement in an idle state or an inactive state, and the effect of saving the power consumption of the terminal is achieved.
In this embodiment, the measurement stop threshold may include a measurement record amount threshold or a measurement duration threshold.
The measurement record quantity threshold may indicate that the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal in one or more states reaches the measurement record quantity threshold, and then the MDT measurement is stopped.
Therefore, the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal in one or more states reaches the measurement record quantity threshold, and the terminal can stop the MDT measurement, so that the terminal can perform the MDT measurement in one or more states to improve the MDT measurement effect.
The measurement duration threshold may correspond to a timer, the timer corresponds to one or more states, and if the timer reaches the measurement duration threshold, the MDT measurement is stopped;
the terminal is switched to a second state in a first state, the timer is suspended, and when the terminal returns to the first state, the timer continues to run; or
The terminal is switched to a second state in a first state, and the timer is not suspended;
the first state is one of an idle state, a connection state and an inactive state, and the second state is other than the first state.
The above timer may be referred to as an MDT measurement timer. The timer corresponds to one or more states, and it is understood that the timer may operate in one or more states.
The timer is suspended when the terminal is switched to the second state from the first state, and the timer continues to run when the terminal returns to the first state, where the timer may be suspended when the terminal is switched to the idle state or the inactive state, and the timer continues to run when the terminal is switched to the idle state or the inactive state from the connected state. In addition, the terminal may switch to the second state in the first state, the timer may not be suspended, the terminal may switch to the idle state in the inactive state, and the timer may not be suspended.
Alternatively, when any two combinations of the idle state, the connection state, and the inactive state are indicated by the state information in the embodiment of the present invention, the timer may not be suspended when the terminal switches in the state combination indicated by the state information, and the timer may be suspended when the terminal switches to a state other than the combination. For example: when the combination of the state information indication is an idle state and an inactive state, the timer is not suspended when the inactive state is switched to the idle state, and is suspended when the idle state or the inactive state is switched to a connection state; another example is: when the combination indicated by the state information is the connection state and the inactive state, the timer is not suspended when the inactive state is switched to the connection state, and is suspended when the inactive state is switched to the idle state.
The timer can record the measuring time length of the terminal in the first state only, so that a longer measuring time length can be obtained. Or the terminal can be switched to the second state in the first state, and the timer is not suspended, that is, in the state switching process, the timer is also operated, so that the MDT measurement results in a plurality of states can be recorded, the state types of the MDT measurement results are enriched, and the flexibility of the MDT measurement stop condition can be improved.
Under the condition that the measurement stop threshold packet is measured for a length threshold, the MDT measurement of the terminal satisfies the measurement stop threshold, and the terminal stops the MDT measurement, including:
the MDT measuring time of the terminal reaches the measuring time threshold, and the terminal stops MDT measurement; or
And the terminal stops MDT measurement when the time length of the MDT measurement timer of the terminal is long.
The MDT measurement duration is an actual duration for the terminal to perform MDT measurement, the MDT measurement timer duration is a timer running duration, and the timer running duration includes the MDT measurement duration and may or may not include other durations, for example: the state switching duration may specifically refer to the above description about the timer suspension.
The flexibility of the MDT measurement can be improved by stopping the MDT measurement so as to be suitable for the MDT measurement in different scenes.
As another optional implementation manner, the terminal performs MDT measurement in one or more of idle state, connected state, and inactive state, and records the MDT measurement result, including:
the terminal carries out MDT measurement in one or more states of idle state, connection state and inactive state and records the MDT measurement result;
the terminal MDT measurement does not meet the measurement stop threshold, the terminal is switched from a first state to a second state, and the terminal stops the MDT measurement, wherein the first state is one of an idle state, a connection state and an inactive state, and the second state is other states except the first state.
The MDT measurement not meeting the measurement stop threshold may be that a recording result of the MDT measurement does not reach a measurement recording amount threshold, or that an MDT measurement duration does not reach a measurement duration threshold.
In this embodiment, if the terminal does not complete the MDT measurement task and leaves the idle state or the inactive state, the terminal stops the MDT measurement and stores the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal, so that the measurement result in the idle state or the inactive state can be stored in time, and the content of the measurement result subsequently reported by the terminal is enriched.
In addition, after the terminal stops MDT measurement, the terminal performs MDT measurement in one or more states of idle state, connected state, and inactive state, and records an MDT measurement result, which may further include:
and the terminal enters the first state, continues to carry out MDT measurement and records the MDT measurement result.
In addition, here, the continuing of the MDT measurement and the recording of the MDT measurement result may be continuing of the MDT measurement and recording of the MDT measurement result until the MDT measurement satisfies the measurement stop threshold.
The above-mentioned entering of the terminal into the first state may be understood as that the terminal enters the idle state again after leaving the idle state, or may be that the terminal enters the inactive state again after leaving the inactive state. Therefore, the MDT measurement result reported by the terminal subsequently can include the measurement result in an idle state or an inactive state for multiple times, so that the measurement performance of the MDT is improved.
Of course, in this embodiment, the terminal may enter the inactive state after leaving the idle state, or may enter the idle state after leaving the inactive state, so that the MDT measurement result reported by the terminal may include the measurement results in the idle state and the inactive state, so as to improve the measurement performance of the MDT.
In another embodiment, or the MDT measurement of the terminal does not satisfy the measurement stop threshold, the terminal switches from the first state to the second state, and after the terminal stops the MDT measurement, the method further includes:
and the terminal deletes the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal.
The deleting may be that the MDT measurement of the terminal does not satisfy the measurement stop threshold, the terminal is switched to a connection state in an idle state or an inactive state, and the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal is deleted after the MDT measurement is stopped. Or, the MDT measurement of the terminal does not meet the measurement stop threshold, the terminal switches to an idle state in an inactive state, and deletes the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal after stopping the MDT measurement. Certainly, the MDT measurement of the terminal does not satisfy the measurement stop threshold, the terminal switches to the idle state in the inactive state, and after the MDT measurement is stopped, the recorded MDT measurement result may not be deleted and the MDT measurement may be continued.
Or, when any two combinations of the idle state, the connection state, and the inactive state are indicated by the state information in the embodiment of the present invention, the MDT measurement of the terminal does not satisfy the measurement stop threshold, and when the terminal performs a handover in the state combination indicated by the state information, the recorded MDT measurement result may not be deleted. The MDT measurement of the terminal does not satisfy the measurement stop threshold, and the terminal may delete the recorded MDT measurement result when switching to a state other than the combination. For example: when the combination of the state information indication is an idle state and an inactive state, and the inactive state is switched to the idle state, the recorded MDT measurement result is not deleted, and if the idle state or the inactive state is switched to a connection state, the recorded MDT measurement result is deleted; another example is: and when the combination indicated by the state information is in a connected state and an inactive state, and the inactive state is switched to the connected state, the recorded MDT measurement result is not deleted, and if the inactive state is switched to the idle state, the recorded MDT measurement result is deleted.
In the embodiment, when the terminal does not complete the MDT measurement task, stopping the MDT measurement and deleting the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal can be realized, so that the MDT measurement can be stopped in time to save the power consumption and the storage space of the terminal.
And after the terminal deletes the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal, the method may further include:
and the terminal sends indication information for indicating the terminal to delete the MDT measurement result recorded by the terminal to an uplink base station.
The indication information can indicate the reporting base station, and the terminal deletes the MDT measurement result, thereby avoiding the reporting base station from sending the indication of reporting the MDT measurement result to the terminal and achieving the effect of saving transmission resources.
Step 303, the terminal reports the report information containing the MDT measurement result to a report base station or a network collection network element;
the configuration base station and the report base station are the same base station, or the configuration base station and the report base station are different base stations.
When the indication information received in step 301 includes the measurement stop threshold, the MDT measurement result reported in step 303 may be part or all of the MDT measurements recorded in the process from the start of the terminal to the stop of the MDT measurement according to the measurement stop threshold, or may be any combination of the MDT measurements recorded in the process from the start of the terminal to the stop of the MDT measurement meeting the stop threshold.
And step 303 may also be that after the terminal stops the MDT measurement, the reporting base station or the network collecting network element reports the reporting information including the MDT measurement result, so as to improve the timeliness of reporting the MDT measurement result.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, step 303 is optional, for example: and under the condition that the terminal does not meet the measurement stop threshold, the terminal can delete the recorded MDT measurement result and does not report the MDT measurement result.
As an optional implementation manner, the reporting information including the MDT measurement result reported by the terminal to the reporting base station or the network collecting network element includes:
and the terminal reports reporting information containing the MDT measurement result and measurement result state information to a reporting base station or a network collecting network element, wherein the measurement result state information is used for indicating the state of the terminal when the terminal records the MDT measurement result.
The measurement result status information may be 1 bit, for example: the measurement result of the idle state or the measurement result of the inactive state is indicated by 1 bit. Or may also indicate a measurement result including an idle state and an inactive state by 2 bits, etc.
In the embodiment, the state information of the measurement result can be reported to the network side, so that the accuracy of the MDT measurement result can be improved, and the network optimization of the network side is facilitated.
In addition, the reporting information including the MDT measurement result and the measurement result status information, which are recorded by the terminal and reported to the reporting base station by the terminal, where the measurement result status information is used to indicate a status of the terminal when recording the MDT measurement result, may include:
initiating a (Radio Resource Control, RRC) connection establishment procedure at the terminal, and reporting, by the terminal, report information including an MDT measurement result and measurement result state information to the reporting base station through a message (Msg)3 or Msg5 of the RRC connection establishment procedure; or
The terminal enters a connection state, and reports reporting information containing an MDT measurement result and measurement result state information to the reporting base station through an RRC signaling; or
And the terminal reports reporting information containing the MDT measurement result and the state information of the measurement result to the reporting base station in the process of initiating RRC connection recovery by the terminal.
In the embodiment, the report information containing the MDT measurement result and the measurement result state information can be reported to the base station through the Msg3 or the Msg5, and the first measurement result is transmitted without adding an additional signaling, so that transmission resources can be saved, and the idle state can be reported in time to perform the MDT measurement result, thereby facilitating network optimization on a network side. And reporting the MDT measurement result to the base station through RRC signaling when the terminal enters the connected state again.
It should be noted that, before initiating the RRC connection establishment procedure, the terminal may be in an idle state, that is, the MDT measurement result includes a result of the terminal performing MDT measurement in the idle state; before initiating the RRC connection recovery procedure, the terminal may be in an inactive state, that is, the MDT measurement result includes a result of the terminal performing MDT measurement in the inactive state.
Wherein, after receiving the MDT measurement result, the base station may forward the MDT measurement result to a data collection network element.
In addition, the reporting information including the MDT measurement result and the measurement result status information are reported by the terminal to a reporting base station or a data collecting network element, where the measurement result status information is used to indicate a status of the terminal when recording the MDT measurement result, and the reporting information may also include:
the terminal sends a first indication to the reporting base station, receives a second indication returned by the reporting base station according to the first indication, and reports reporting information containing an MDT measurement result to the reporting base station according to the second indication, wherein the first indication is used for indicating that the terminal has an MDT measurement result and the measurement result state information, and the second indication is used for indicating that the terminal reports the MDT measurement result; or
The terminal sends a third indication to the reporting base station, the terminal establishes connection with the data collecting network element, receives a fourth indication returned by the data collecting network element, and reports reporting information containing an MDT measurement result to the data collecting network element according to the fourth indication, wherein the third indication is used for indicating that the terminal has an MDT measurement result and the measurement result state information, the fourth indication is used for indicating that the terminal reports the MDT measurement result, and the fourth indication is sent by the data collecting network element according to the indicating information sent by the reporting base station and indicating that the terminal has the MDT measurement result.
In this embodiment, it can be realized that the indication that the terminal has the MDT measurement result is sent to the reporting base station, and the terminal reports according to the indication for reporting the MDT measurement result returned by the base station or the data collection network element, so that it can be avoided that the terminal reports the MDT measurement result to the network side when the network side does not need the MDT measurement result, and power consumption of the terminal and the base station can be saved.
Wherein the first indication and the third indication are sent by:
initiating an RRC connection establishment process at the terminal, and sending the RRC connection establishment process to the reporting base station by the terminal through the Msg3 or Msg5 of the RRC connection establishment process; or
The terminal enters a connection state and is sent to the reporting base station through RRC signaling; or
