All other embodiments, which are derived by a person skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application, fall within the scope of protection of the application.

It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein, and that the "first" and "second" distinguishing between objects generally are not limited in number to the extent that the first object may, for example, be one or more. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally means a relationship in which the associated object is an "or" before and after.
In order to facilitate understanding of the technical scheme of the present application, the following technical points are introduced:
1. Regarding mobility measurements.
The current mobility measurement is based on the terminal measuring the downlink reference signals of each adjacent cell and reporting the measurement results, and then the base station determines the target handover cell according to the measurement results. The beam measurement reporting process in the current mobility measurement is as follows:
Step 1: the base station configures the terminal for measurement through radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC), and the configured parameters include:
a. The measurement object (Measurement Object, MO) provides the terminal with reference signal Information to be measured, and the reference signal that can be measured is a synchronization signal block (Synchronization Signal Block, SSB) or/and a single-port periodic channel state Information reference signal (CHANNEL STATE Information REFERENCE SIGNAL, CSI-RS).
B. The reporting configuration (Reporting configuration) indicates which measurement (reference signal received Power (REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED Power, RSRP), reference signal received Power (REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED Quality, RSRP) or signal to interference plus noise ratio (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, SINR)) the terminal needs to measure and report.
C. The measurement quantity configuration (quantityConfig) indicates the Layer3 (Layer 3, L3) filter coefficients that filter the measurement. In one measurement configuration (measconfig), a maximum of 2 quantityConfig are included.
Step 2: and after receiving the measurement configuration, the terminal performs measurement according to the measurement configuration to obtain a measurement result. A measurement model for obtaining cell level measurements and beam level measurements is shown in fig. 1.
At point a, the terminal measures the beam of a certain cell for the resources configured by the base station in the measurement object and obtains measurement results beam1, beam2, …, beam K. At the point A1, the terminal performs layer 1 filtering on the measurement result obtained at the point a, and then the terminal compares the measurement value after layer 1 filtering with a certain threshold configured by the base station to obtain a cell-level measurement result (point B). If the RRC configures a Threshold (Threshold) for beam selection, the maximum beam N that is taken when the cell-level measurement is obtained, and N (N < N) beams of beams detected by the UE have a quality not lower than the configured Threshold, the cell-level measurement is equal to a linear average of the measurements corresponding to the N best beams that are greater than Threshold. If the best beam quality in the beams detected by the UE is lower than the configured Threshold, the cell-level measurement result is equal to the measurement result corresponding to the best beam in the beams detected by the UE.
After point B, the terminal performs L3 filtering on the cell-level measurement result to obtain the signal quality (point C) of each cell. The terminal compares the cell-level measurement result with the conditions in the reporting criteria, and if the reporting criteria (such as Event A3: neighbor cell measurement result is better than a special cell (such as primary serving cell (PRIMARY CELL, PCell)/primary secondary cell (PRIMARY SCG CELL, PSCELL) by a certain offset (offset)) is satisfied, the terminal performs cell-level measurement reporting.
Meanwhile, if the terminal is configured to report the measurement result of the beam level (reportConfig includes that the beam measurement (IncludeBeamMeasurements) is true), the terminal needs to report the measurement result of the beam level. As in the lower part of fig. 1, after L3 filtering (point E) the K beam measurements in a certain cell, the terminal selects X beams of which the number is greater than the pre-configured threshold (absThreshSS-BlocksConsolidation), reports its index (SSB resource indication/CSI-RS resource indication) and the corresponding beam quality (RSRP/RSRQ/SINR) (point F in fig. 1).
Step 3: when the terminal reports the measurement result in an event-driven mode, the terminal judges whether an event-driven condition is met according to the measurement result, the event-driven condition is configured to the terminal by the base station, and when the terminal detects that the measurement result meets the event-driven condition, for example, the RSRP value of a cell level is larger than a certain threshold for a period of time (TimeToTrigger), the terminal reports the measurement result. When reporting the measurement result, the terminal sends a scheduling request (Scheduling Request, SR) to request Uplink resources, and the base station sends Uplink scheduling (UL grant) to allocate Physical Uplink shared channel (Physical Uplink SHARED CHANNEL, PUSCH) resources after receiving the Uplink scheduling request. And the terminal transmits the beam measurement result on the PUSCH resource indicated by the UL grant through the base station.

Referring to fig. 4, the specific steps are as follows:
Step 1: the source base station configures uplink channels/signals (such as SRS, preamble) etc. for measurement in the terminal candidate target cell, such as associating SRS-resource set with the additional PCI.

(2) And the time-frequency resource of the candidate target cell configured by the network side.
The network side configures the cell in which the terminal needs to send the uplink channel/signal and the corresponding time-frequency resource, for example, the base station judges the movement of the terminal according to the previous measurement result (for example, the measurement result of some candidate target cells is greater than a threshold), so that the terminal only sends the uplink channel/signal to the target cell which is more likely to be switched, thereby further reducing the sending time-frequency resource.
Alternatively, for periodic and semi-persistent uplink channels/signals, the period (periodicity) and offset (offset) are configured (SRS-Resource) to the terminal by radio Resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC).
Optionally, for aperiodic uplink channel/signal triggering (trigger), 1 aperiodic SRS resource triggering (aperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger) is indicated through srs_request field (e.g., 2 bits) in DCI 0_1, corresponding to one SRS resource set.
If the uplink channel/signal of the neighboring cell is to be triggered, this can be achieved by:
1) Associating the SRS-resource set with the candidate target cell index, for example, configuring an additional PCI in the SRS-resource set, and then implementing by a conventional manner of triggering an aperiodic uplink channel/signal, that is, using the SRS request (request) field in DCI format 0_1 to indicate 1 aperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger, which corresponds to one SRS resource set.
2) The additional PCI is added to the DCI (e.g., DCI format 0_1) of the legacy trigger aperiodic uplink channel/signal.
3) Triggering is performed in a new manner, for example, by introducing a new MAC CE, in which the additional PCI and aperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger/SRS-resource set are included.
Alternatively, the specific correspondence of AperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger to SRS-resource set may be accomplished through RRC configuration. Such as AperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger1 triggering SRS resource set #3 on PCI #1, aperiodic SRS-ResourceTrigger2 triggering SRS resource set #1 on PCI #2, SRS resource set #2 on PCI #3, etc.

(2) Activating an uplink channel/signal space association relation (SRS-SpatialRelationInfo) of a candidate target cell configured in a serving cell;
For example, consider the activation of SRS of version 15/16 (Rel-15/16), in a manner similar to that described in 3) above; in the case of unified (unified) transport configuration indication (Transmission Configuration Indication, TCI) architecture, the manner of activating SRS uses the manner of activating unified TCI state when configuring SRS to follow (low) unified TCI state (state). If the configured SRS does not follow unified TCI, the manner of SRS activation in Rel-15/16 is used.
(3) A reception beam of a target SSB or CSI-RS, which is an SSB or CSI-RS included in a PL RS of an uplink channel/signal of a candidate target cell;
(4) And receiving a beam of a PDCCH, wherein the PDCCH is used for bearing DCI triggering an aperiodic uplink channel/signal.
Optionally, the correspondence between the target sending beam and the target receiving beam is determined by a protocol convention, a network side configuration, or the terminal.
Optionally, the target power at which the terminal transmits the uplink channel/signal to each candidate target cell is determined by:
(1) The setting of the SRS power control adjustment state (SRS-PowerControlAdjustmentStates) to a separate closed loop (separateClosedLoop) indicates that the terminal power control is adjusted to a power control adjustment mode (considering that there is no PUSCH transmission at this time) independent of the Physical Uplink shared channel (Physical Uplink SHARED CHANNEL, PUSCH) in the same Bandwidth Part (BWP).
(2) And adjusting a corresponding parameter value in a power calculation formula by using a transmitting power control (Transmit Power Control, TPC) command field in the traditional DCI, wherein the DCI carries the additional PCI information.

Wherein,
The open loop power control parameter P 0, alpha is configured to the terminal in advance through the high-layer signaling. The PL-RS may be CSI-RS/SSB configured by higher layer signaling (PathlossReferenceRS-Config), and may be Demodulation reference signal (Demodulation REFERENCE SIGNAL, DM-RS) of primary synchronization signal (Primary Synchronisation Signal, PSS)/secondary synchronization signal (Secondary Synchronisation Signal, SSS) or physical broadcast channel (Physical broadcast channel, PBCH).
Step 3a: the source base station receives an uplink channel/signal sent by a terminal on a corresponding time-frequency resource and measures to obtain a first measurement result;
step 3b: and the at least one candidate target base station receives the uplink channel/signal sent by the terminal on the corresponding time-frequency resource, measures and obtains a second measurement result, and sends the second measurement result to the source base station.

Optionally, the target cell decision criteria include:
(1) RSRP of uplink channel/signal (a scenario where transmission power of uplink channel/signal for candidate target cell is equal): such as SRS-RSRPi-SRS-RSRP1> handoff offset (handoff_offset), then the handoff to the i candidate target cell is made. Wherein the handover_offset is configured to the terminal through the base station, SRS-RSRP1 represents a first measurement result corresponding to the source cell, and SRS-RSRPi represents a second measurement result corresponding to the i candidate target cell.
Optionally, the switching condition includes:
a. the RSRP value of the uplink channel/signal of the serving cell is smaller than a certain absolute threshold.

D. The RSRP value of the uplink channel/signal of the candidate target Cell is higher than a certain threshold value of a serving Cell (Scell).
(2) The RSRP of the uplink channel/signal and the transmission power of the uplink channel/signal (for the scenario where the transmission powers of SRS of candidate target cells are not equal),
The switching condition in criterion (2) is similar to the switching condition a/b/c/d in criterion (1).
To avoid ping-pong (pingpang) handovers, a frequency threshold (SRS-RSRP-EvalTime) may be defined, and the target cell for the handover is determined when the detected number of times that satisfies the criteria for the handover reaches and exceeds a certain frequency threshold. For example, in a scene with large signal fluctuation, the number of times of decision can be increased by increasing the threshold value of the number of times to avoid ping-pong switching. The parameter value can be reduced in a scene of fast signal attenuation to reduce the decision times so as to ensure the timeliness of switching.

The closed loop power control adjustment includes:
Setting separateClosedLoop by means of parameters srs-PowerControlAdjustmentStates indicates that the terminal power control is adjusted to a power control adjustment mode independent of PUSCH in the same BWP (considering that there is no PUSCH transmission at this time).
And adjusting the corresponding parameter value by using a TPC command field in the traditional DCI, wherein the DCI carries the additional PCI information.
Alternatively, the transmission power of the SRS is determined in the following manner.
A) And directly using the SRS transmission power of the serving cell to obtain the SRS transmission power P SRS,candidate_cell of the candidate target cell.
B) And adjusting the sending power of the SRS of the serving cell to obtain P SRS,candidate_cell.

Step 5: the base stations of the serving cell and the candidate target cell receive the SRS sent by the terminal on the corresponding time-frequency resources and estimate the SRS-RSRP, and the candidate target cell #3 sends the measured SRS-RSRP value to the serving cell. Serving cell SRS-rsrp=12 dB, SRS-rsrp=18 dB of candidate target cell # 3.
Step 6: the serving cell receives the SRS-RSRP value measured by the candidate target cell and finds that the SRS-RSRP value of the candidate target cell 3 is 6dB higher than the SRS-RSRP value of the serving cell and is 3dB higher than the previous threshold value, and the serving cell decides to switch the terminal to the target cell 3.
Step 7: the serving cell issues a cell handover command informing the terminal to handover to the target cell 3.
Example 2: the base station transmits aperiodic SRS for measurement of cell handover.
Step 1: the SRS used for measurement by the terminal in the serving cell configuration candidate target cell (pci#3) is SRS resource#3 in SRS resource set#1.
And 2, the terminal transmits the aperiodic SRS#3 to the candidate target cell#3 according to the configuration of the base station.
The base station issues DCI format0_1, 1 number aperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger of the DCI format is indicated by the srs_request field (00) therein, the corresponding SRS resource set is 1, and the aperiodic SRS resource set 1 in PCI #3 is activated in this way. Optionally, the base station includes an additional pci=3 in DCI format0_1, thereby triggering transmission of SRS resource set #1 in the target cell # 3. The time-frequency resources for transmitting the aperiodic SRS are also configured to the terminal through RRC.

Step 4: the base stations of the serving cell and the candidate target cell receive the SRS sent by the terminal on the corresponding time-frequency resources and estimate the SRS-RSRP, and the candidate target cell #3 sends the measured SRS-RSRP value to the serving cell. Serving cell SRS-rsrp=12 dB, SRS-rsrp=18 dB of candidate target cell # 3.
Step 5: the serving cell receives the SRS-RSRP value measured by the candidate target cell and finds that the SRS-RSRP value of the candidate target cell 3 is 6dB higher than the SRS-RSRP value of the serving cell and is 3dB higher than the previous threshold value, and the serving cell decides to switch the terminal to the target cell 3.
Step 6: the serving cell issues a cell handover command informing the terminal to handover to the target cell 3.
The prior cell switching is completed by the terminal measuring the downlink reference signals of each adjacent cell according to the configuration of the base station and reporting the measurement results, and the base station determines the target switching cell according to the measurement results. In the process, the terminal needs to measure the reference signals of each candidate target cell and report the reference signals to the base station, the measurement time delay is large, the complexity of the terminal is high, and the terminal needs to report all measurement results, so that the air interface overhead is large. In the embodiment, the uplink channel/signal measurement is adopted to determine the switching target cell, so that the time delay brought by the switching process is reduced. Meanwhile, the terminal does not need to report the measurement result, and the air interface overhead is greatly reduced.
