技术领域
本申请涉及通信领域，尤其涉及一种波束测量方法及装置。
背景技术
为了规避波束(beam)之间的干扰，终端设备需要基于网络设备配置的信道测量资源(channel measurement resource,CMR)集合与干扰测量资源(interference measurement resource,IMR)集合，测量网络设备发送的波束信号，并基于网络设备配置的上报量(report quantity)，向网络设备上报一组或多组测量结果。其中，CMR集合与IMR集合均可对应一个或多个波束，每组测量结果均需要包括CMR索引、IMR索引以及信号干扰噪声比(signal to interference plus noise ratio，SINR)。
然而，当配置的CMR集合和/或IMR集合对应的波束数量较大时，终端设备需要向网络设备上报大量的测量结果，上报开销较大。

下面将结合图3-图7对本申请实施例提供的波束测量方法进行具体阐述。
图3为本申请实施例提供的波束测量方法的流程示意图一。该波束测量方法可以适用于图1所示的任意两个节点之间的通信。
如图3所示，该波束测量方法包括如下步骤：
S301，网络设备向终端设备发送测量配置信息。相应地，终端设备接收来自网络设备的测量配置信息。
其中，测量配置信息用于指示信道测量资源CMR集合、干扰测量资源IMR集合、波束扫描方式和上报量。
示例性地，CMR集合可以包括一个或多个信道测量资源和CMR集合的波束扫描方式。其中，信道测量资源用于发射对应的信道测量信号，如一个或多个SSB，和/或，一个或多个CSI-RS。而IMR集合可以包括一个或多个干扰测量资源。其中，干扰测量资源用于发射对应的干扰测量信号，如一个或多个SSB，和/或，一个或多个CSI-RS。
需要说明的是，CMR集合对应的信道测量信号与IMR集合对应的干扰测量信号均可以包括一个或多个SSB，和/或，一个或多个CSI-RS，两者的区别之处在于：信道测量信号用于模拟承载用户数据的信号，而干扰测量信号用于模拟对上述承载用户数据的信号进行干扰的其他信号，包括但不限于其他网络的信号、用于承载其他用户数据的信号等。
在本申请实施例中，为便于描述，可以使用CSI-RS#n表示资源编号为n的CSI-RS信道测量资源或CSI-RS干扰测量资源。同理，也可以使用SSB#n表示资源编号为n的SSB信道测量资源或SSB干扰测量资源。
示例性的，在本申请实施例中，波束扫描方式是针对CMR集合的，可以采用现有实现方式，如使用CMR重复(CMR repetition)信元来指示。例如，当CMR重复信元取值为“ON”时，CMR集合的波束扫描方式为：网络设备使用固定的发送波束发送CMR集合中的每一个CMR，终端设备应使用不同的接收波束接收CMR集合中的每个CMR，从而确定终端设备的最优接收波束。又例如，当CMR重复信元取值为“OFF”时，CMR集合的波束扫描方式为：网络设备使用固定的发送波束发送CMR集合中的每一个CMR，终端设备应使用固定的接收波束接收CMR集合中的每个CMR，从而确定网络设备的最优发送波束。其中，“最优”是指，在上述某一波束扫描方式下，满足如下一项或多项条件的接收波束或发送波束：终端设备接收到的信号最强，如参考信号接收功率(reference signal receiving power，RSRP)的值最大；或者，终端设备接收到的信号质量最佳，如参考信号接收质量(reference signal receiving quality，RSRQ)的值最大。
需要说明的是，在实际的通信场景中，干扰信号的来源、方位、强度等通常会在 时域和空域上不断变化的，不需要考虑IMR集合的波束扫描方式为固定干扰发送波束的情况。其原因在于：当IMR集合的波束扫描方式配置为ON时，可以用于固定干扰波束且在CMR集合中选择服务波束的场景，这时基站知道干扰波束的信息，如IMR索引，终端设备是不需要将IMR索引反馈给基站的。因此，在本申请实施例中，IMR集合的波束扫描方式可以配置为：不固定IMR集合的发送波束，如可以将IMR重复(IMR repetition)信元的值配置为“OFF”。当然，也可以不配置，即默认IMR重复信元的值为“OFF”。关于波束扫描方式的具体实现方式，可以参考下述S302中的相关描述，此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是，为节省配置资源，上述CMR重复信元与IMR重复信元也可以共用同一个重复信元字段(repetition field)来指示。例如，若重复信元字段配置为ON，则表示CMR重复信元配置为ON，即CMR集合的波束扫描方式为固定干扰发送波束，而IMR重复信元配置为OFF，即IMR集合的波束扫描方式为不固定干扰发送波束。
示例性地，网络设备可以在下行链路(downlink，DL)上，通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令、媒体接入控制(medium access control–control element，MAC-CE)信令，下行控制信息(downlink control information，DCI)信令、广播(broadcast)、***信息块(system infomatiion block，SIB)等任一方式向终端设备发送测量配置信息。
S302，网络设备在CMR集合与IMR集合上，向终端设备发送信号。相应地，终端设备在CMR集合与IMR集合上，接收并测量来自网络设备的信号。
示例性地，网络设备在CMR集合中的每个CMR上，以及在IMR集合的每个IMR上，向终端设备发送信号。相应地，终端设备在CMR集合中的每个CMR上，以及在IMR集合的每个IMR上，接收并测量来自网络设备的信号。
目前，按照步骤S301中的配置，倘若网络设备和终端设备采用遍历发送波束和接收波束的方式完成干扰测量，则一种最简单的测量干扰波束的方法为：终端设备对CMR集合中的每个资源以及IMR集合中的每个资源进行组合，并且用终端设备的每一个接收波束去测量每一个CMR-IMR组合。这种方法的问题在于：复杂度非常高，工作量大。具体地，假设网络设备配置了N_CMR个CMR资源，N_IMR个IMR资源，终端设备具有M_RX个接收波束，则终端设备需要进行N_CMR*N_IMR*M_RX次测量，获得N_CMR*N_IMR*M_RX个不同的L1-SINR，再从中选出最优的CMR-IMR组合上报给网络设备。因此，避免过于复杂的测量，降低测量工作量，提高测量效率，成为本申请需要解决的技术问题之一。
示例性地，图4示出了本申请实施例提供的一种波束扫描方式的场景示意图。如图4所示，CMR集合包括CSI-RS1-CSI-RS4，CMR集合的波束扫描方式为：固定发送波束，该波束扫描方式用于终端设备训练接收波束。例如，可以将CMR集合配置参数中的重复信元(CMR repetition)配置为ON。其中，固定发送波束是指，网络设备使用同一个发送波束，如使用发送波束1，发送CMR集合中的CSI-RS1-CSI-RS4。IMR集合包括CSI-RS5-CSI-RS8，IMR集合用于模拟在终端设备侧，网络设备的其他发送波束发送的信号对CMR集合对应的发送波束发送的信号产生的干扰。在图4所示的干扰测量场景下，上述干扰测量方法具体可以包括如下步骤：
步骤一，网络设备使用同一发送波束，发送CMR集合中的信号。相应地，终端设备遍历接收波束，并选出最优接收波束。
具体地，网络设备可以在同一发送波束上，按照预设顺序，发送CMR集合中的全部CSI-RS。相应地，终端设备可以使用每个接收波束，测量接收到的信号，并选择接收到的信号强度最大的接收波束，作为最优接收波束。其中，信号强度可以为L1-RSRP。
步骤二，网络设备使用不同发送波束，发送IMR集合中的信号。相应地，终端设备使用最优接收波束，接收并测量IMR集合中的信号强度。
具体地，终端设备可以使用最优接收波束，接收并测量IMR集合中的CSI-RS5-CSI-RS8的信号强度，如CSI-RS5-CSI-RS8的L1-RSRP。
步骤三，终端设备根据其接收到的CMR集合中的信号强度，以及IMR集合中的信号强度，计算CMR集合中每个信号对应的信号干扰噪声比，如L1-SINR。
具体地，鉴于IMR集合配置参数中的波束扫描方式，如IMR重复信元(IMR repetition)配置为OFF或者没有配置，IMR集合可以用于终端设备评估该L1-RSRP最强的接收波束上收到的其他网络设备的发送波束的干扰情况，即利用CSI-RS2的和CSI-RS5-CSI-RS8来计算L1-SINR。
在上述实现方式中，在CMR集合的波束扫描方式为固定发送波束的场景下，网络设备需要先发送CMR集合中的信号，待终端设备根据CMR集合中的接收信号确定最优接收波束之后，再发送IMR集合中的信号。相应地，终端设备遍历接收波束并确定最优接收波束，然后终端设备使用该最优接收波束去测量IMR集合中的信号，也就是说CMR集合的发送顺序需要在IMR集合的发送顺序之前，且时间提前量取决于终端设备遍历接收波束和确定最优接收波束的处理时长。因此，可选地，网络设备还需要向终端设备发送CMR集合与发送IMR集合之间的时间提前量。例如，该时间提前量可以是网络设备直接配置的，也可以是根据终端设备上报的终端能力等级确定之后配置的，本申请实施例对此不作限定。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，网络设备也可以同时发送CMR集合中的一个信号和IMR集合中的一个信号，以便终端设备依据该CMR信号与IMR信号之间的信号质量，如L1_SINR确定最优接收波束。相应地，终端设备可以使用每个接收波束，测量接收到的CMR信号的信号强度和IMR信号的信号强度，然后依据上述信号强度计算每个接收波束对应的L1_SINR，并选择L1_SINR值最大的接收波束为最优接收波束。之后，待终端设备确定最优接收波束之后，网络设备再发送CMR集合中的其他CMR信号，以及IMR集合中的其他IMR信号。相应地，终端设备再依据接收到的CMR集合中的其他CMR信号的信号强度，以及IMR集合中的其他IMR信号的信号强度，计算L1_SINR。
示例性地，图5-图7分别示出了本申请实施例提供的另一种波束扫描方式的3个场景示意图。如图5-图7所示，CMR集合包括CSI-RS1-CSI-RS4，CMR集合的波束扫描方式为：不固定发送波束，该波束扫描方式用于网络设备训练发送波束。例如，可以将CMR集合配置参数中的重复信元(CMR repetition)配置为OFF。其中，不固定发送波束是指，固定终端设备的接收波束，接收网络设备使用不同的发送波束发送 的CMR集合中的CSI-RS1至CSI-RS4。下面以图5所示的干扰测量方法为例，详细说明上述波束干扰测量场景二下的干扰测量方法。具体地，该方法可以包括如下步骤：
步骤1，网络设备使用不同的发送波束，发送CMR集合中的信号。相应地，终端设备使用同一接收波束，分别接收并测量网络设备使用不同的发送波束发送的CMR集合中的信号。
示例性地，终端设备可以使用网络设备配置的同一个CMR的接收波束，分别接收并测量网络设备在发送波束1至4上发送的CMR集合中的CSI-RS1至CSI-RS4的信号强度。
步骤2，网络设备使用不同的发送波束，发送IMR集合中的信号。相应地，终端设备使用同一接收波束，分别接收并测量网络设备使用不同的发送波束发送的IMR集合中的信号。
示例性地，终端设备可以使用网络设备配置的一个IMR的接收波束，分别接收并测量网络设备在发送波束1至4上发送的IMR集合中的CSI-RS5至CSI-RS8的信号强度。
需要说明的是，上述同一个CMR接收波束可以是网络设备配置的，也可以是终端设备自行选择的，以及CMR的接收波束与IMR的接收波束可以是相同的接收波束，也可以是不同的接收波束，本申请实施例对此不作限定。
步骤3，终端设备根据其接收到的CMR集合中的信号强度，以及IMR集合中的信号强度，计算CMR集合中每个信号对应的信号干扰噪声比，如L1-SINR。
具体地，鉴于IMR集合配置参数中的波束扫描方式，如IMR重复信元(IMR repetition)配置为OFF或者没有配置，IMR集合可以用于终端设备评估该L1-RSRP最强的接收波束上收到的网络设备发送的其他发送波束的干扰情况，如利用CSI-RS2-CSI-R4和CSI-RS5-CSI-RS8来计算L1-SINR。具体计算方法可以参考现有实现方式，此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是，鉴于CMR集合的波束扫描方式为不固定发送波束，可以用于网络设备遍历发送波束，并选择最优发送波束，而CMR集合与IMR集合的发送顺序对此目的没有影响。因此，本申请实施例不需要限定网络设备发送CMR集合与IMR集合的先后顺序。也就是说，步骤2可以在执行步骤1之后执行，即如图5所示，先发送CMR集合中的全部信号，再发送IMR集合中的全部信号，也可以在执行步骤1之前执行，即如图6所示，先发送IMR集合中的全部信号，再发送CMR集合中的全部信号，还可以将步骤2和步骤1交替执行，即如图7所示，交替发送CMR集合中的信号与IMR集合中的信号。
在执行上述步骤一至步骤三，或者执行上述步骤1至步骤3之后，终端设备即可根据波束扫描方式和上报量，确定测量报告的内容，并上报给网络设备，也就是执行S303-S304。
S303，终端设备根据波束扫描方式和/或上报量，确定测量报告的内容。
在一种可能的设计方法中，若波束扫描方式为：固定CMR集合的发送波束，且上报量包括：CMR索引、IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR，则测量报告包括IMR索引和SINR，且不包括CMR索引。
或者，在另一种可能的设计方法中，若波束扫描方式为：固定CMR集合的发送波束，且上报量包括：CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，以及信号干扰噪声比SINR，则测量报告包括IMR索引和SINR。
示例性地，对于图4所示的波束测量场景一，波束扫描方式为固定CMR集合的发送波束，即网络设备已经知道CMR集合中的所有CMR都对应相同的发送波束。因此，即使网络设备要求终端设备上报CMR索引，如配置的上报量包括CMR索引，终端设备也没有必要上报CMR索引，从而可以降低上报数据量，节省上报开销。
应理解，对于图5-图7所示的波束测量场景二，波束扫描方式为不固定CMR集合的发送波束，此时网络设备并不知道终端设备选择的发送波束，此时通常需要终端设备上报上报量要求上报的全部内容，如上报一组或多组包含有CMR索引、IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR的测量结果。
或者，在又一种可能的设计方法中，若波束扫描方式为：不固定CMR集合的发送波束，且上报量包括：CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，以及信号干扰噪声比SINR，则测量报告包括CMR索引和SINR。
示例性地，对于图5-图7所示的波束测量场景二，如果终端设备上报的L1-SINR值较小，说明受到的干扰较大，终端设备可以继续在下一次上报中上报IMR索引。其中，下一次上报可以是网络设备单独触发的上报，或者在周期性的上报中终端设备利用下一个周期的上报进行IMR索引的上报。也就是说，可以根据L1-SINR取值分两步上报L1-SINR和IMR索引。容易理解，如果L1-SINR值较大，说明受到的干扰小，IMR索引就不需要上报了，从而可以进一步降低上报的数据量，降低上报开销。
在一种可能的设计方法中，若上报量包括：CMR索引、IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR，则测量报告包括IMR索引或SINR。
或者，在另一种可能的设计方法中，若波束扫描方式为：固定CMR集合的发送波束，且上报量包括：CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，以及信号干扰噪声比SINR，则测量报告包括IMR索引或SINR。
可选地，上述测量报告包括IMR索引或SINR，可以包括如下之一：若SINR大于第一SINR阈值，则测量报告包括SINR，且不包括IMR索引。或者，若SINR小于第二SINR阈值，则测量报告包括IMR索引，且不包括SINR。其中，第一SINR阈值和第二SINR阈值可以为同一个数值，也可以为不同数值，本申请实施例对此不作限定。
进一步地，测量报告还可以包括第一指示信息。其中，第一指示信息用于指示测量报告包括IMR索引，且不包括SINR；或者，第一指示信息用于指示测量报告包括SINR，且不包括IMR索引。
示例性地，如图4所示，当SINR大于第一SINR阈值时，说明干扰较弱，不需要规避干扰波束，因此不需要上报IMR索引，而SINR可用于网络设备对发射方案进行进一步微调，如调整发射功率、调制编码方案等，因此需要上报SINR。当SINR小于第四SINR阈值时，说明此时干扰较强，需要规避干扰波束，因此需要上报IMR索引，而在需要规避干扰的情况下，不需要也没有必要根据SINR对发射方案进行进一步微调，上报SINR意义不大，因此不需要上报SINR。在规避干扰后，如果SINR大于第 一SINR阈值，终端设备可以继续在下一次上报中上报SINR。其中，下一次上报可以是网络设备单独触发的上报，或者在周期性的上报中终端设备利用下一个周期的上报进行IMR索引的上报。
在又一种可能的设计方法中，若上报量包括：CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，以及信号干扰噪声比SINR，则测量报告包括CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，以及SINR。
可选地，上述报告包括CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，以及SINR，可以包括：若SINR大于第三SINR阈值，则测量报告包括CMR索引和SINR，且不包括IMR索引。或者，若SINR小于第四SINR阈值，则测量报告包括IMR索引和SINR，且不包括CMR索引。
其中，第三SINR阈值和第四SINR阈值可以为同一个数值，也可以为不同数值，本申请实施例对此不作限定。
进一步地，测量报告还可以包括第二指示信息。其中，第二指示信息用于指示测量报告包括CMR索引，或者，第二指示信息用于指示测量报告包括IMR索引。
可选地，波束扫描方式可以为：固定CMR集合的发送波束。或者，可选地，波束扫描方式也可以为：不固定CMR集合的发送波束。
示例性地，如图5-图7中任一项所示，当SINR大于第三SINR阈值时，可以视为CMR索引对应的服务波束受到所有干扰波束的干扰均较弱，不需要规避任何干扰波束，因此需要上报可用作服务波束的CMR索引，但不需要上报IMR索引。当SINR小于第四SINR阈值时，可以视为IMR索引对应的干扰波束对所有服务波束均存在强干扰，需要规避，因此需要上报IMR索引，但不需要上报CMR索引。
需要说明的是，上述各种确定测量报告的内容的可选方案可以单独使用，也可以结合使用，本申请实施例对此不作限定。例如，在根据波束扫描方式确定测量报告包括IMR索引和/或SINR的情况下，还可以根据SINR的测量值与第一SINR阈值和/或第二SINR阈值的比较结果，从IMR索引和SINR中择一上报。又例如，在根据上报量确定测量报告包括CMR索引和/或IMR索引的情况下，还可以根据SINR的测量值与第三SINR阈值和/或第四SINR阈值的比较结果，从CMR索引和IMR索引中择一上报。
在一种可能的设计方法中，若波束扫描方式为：固定CMR集合的发送波束，则测量报告不包括CMR索引。也就是说，不管上报量如何配置，以及测量结果如何，在波束扫描方式为：固定CMR集合的发送波束的情况下，鉴于网络设备已经知道发送波束的具体信息，终端设备均不需要上报CMR索引。
在另一种可能的设计方法中，若上报量包括：IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR中的一项或多项，则测量报告包括IMR索引和SINR中的一项。
可选地，上述测量报告包括IMR索引和SINR中的一项，可以包括：若SINR大于第一SINR阈值，则测量报告包括SINR，且不包括IMR索引。或者，若SINR小于第二SINR阈值，则测量报告包括IMR索引，且不包括SINR。
进一步地，测量报告还可以包括第一指示信息。其中，第一指示信息用于指示测量报告包括IMR索引，或者，第一指示信息用于指示测量报告包括SINR。
在又一种可能的设计方法中，若上报量包括：CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项或多项，则测量报告包括CMR索引和IMR中的一项。
可选地，上述测量报告包括CMR索引和IMR索引中的一项，可以包括：若信号干扰噪声比SINR大于第三SINR阈值，则测量报告包括CMR索引，且不包括IMR索引。或者，若信号干扰噪声比SINR小于第四SINR阈值，则测量报告包括IMR索引，且不包括CMR索引。
进一步地，测量报告还可以包括第二指示信息。其中，第二指示信息用于指示测量报告是否包括CMR索引，或者第二指示信息用于指示测量报告是否包括IMR索引。
S304，终端设备向网络设备发送测量报告。相应地，网络设备接收来自终端设备的测量报告。
示例性地，终端设备可以在上行链路(uplink，UL)，通过物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel，PUSCH)发送CSI测量报告给网络设备。

示例性地，表1为CSI测量报告的示例一。如表1所示，若上报量包括：CMR索引、IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR，则CSI测量报告可以包括：CMR索引、IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR。
需要说明的是，表1所示的CSI测量报告可能包括一组或多组测量结果，比如表1中测量结果索引为0和1的两组测量结果，其中，每组结果均包括一个CMR索引、 一个IMR索引和一个L1-SINR。
其中，CMR索引的比特长度(bitwidth)为ceil{Log2(N_CMR)}，IMR索引的比特长度(bitwidth)为ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}，其中ceil{}是向上取整函数，N_CMR是CMR集合中元素的个数，N_IMR是IMR集合中元素的个数。或者，可选的，CMR索引和IMR的索引的比特长度都也可以统一为ceil{Log2(N_CMR+N_IMR)}。

需要说明的是，表3所示的CSI测量报告可以包括一组或多组测量结果，比如表3中测量结果索引为0和1的两组测量结果，其中，每组结果均包括一个IMR索引和一个L1-SINR。

示例性地，表4为CSI测量报告的示例三。如表4所示，若上报量包括：CMR索引、IMR索引和信号干扰噪声比SINR，则CSI测量报告可以包括IMR索引或信号干扰噪声比SINR，以及与IMR索引或信号干扰噪声比SINR对应的指示位。
需要说明的是，表4所示的CSI测量报告可以包括一组或多组测量结果，比如表4中测量结果索引为0和1的两组测量结果，其中，每组结果均包括一个IMR索引或一个L1-SINR，以及一个与IMR索引或信号干扰噪声比SINR对应的指示位。
其中，指示位的比特长度为1比特。示例性地，当指示位为1时，该CSI测量结果中包含IMR索引，当指示位为0时，该CSI测量结果包含L1-SINR的量化值。上报的IMR索引或L1-SINR的量化值共享一组上报比特，该组上报比特的比特长度可以为：IMR索引的比特长度(bitwidth)和L1-SINR的量化值的比特长度为{ceil{Log2(N_IMR)},7}中的最大值。例如，如果ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}>7，则当上报L1-SINR时，只需要在7比特表示的L1-SINR的量化值前面或后面补0，直至与IMR 索引的比特长度相同即可。又例如，如果ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}<7，那么当上报IMR索引时，在ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}比特表示的IMR索引的前面或后面补0，直至与L1-SINR的量化值的比特长度相同即可。可选的，ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}也可以由ceil{Log2(N_CMR+N_IMR)}替换，其中N_CMR是CMR集合中元素的个数。
与表1中的L1-SINR类似，表4中的L1-SINR也可以被量化为一个7比特的值进行上报。具体实现方式可以参考表2相关描述，此处不再赘述。

其中，IMR索引和IMR索引共享一组上报比特，该组上报比特的比特长度(bitwidth)可以为ceil{Log2(N_CMR)}和ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}中的最大值。其中ceil{}是向上取整函数，N_CMR是CMR集合中元素的个数，N_IMR是IMR集合中元素的个数。或者，可选的，该组上报比特的比特长度都也可以为ceil{Log2(N_CMR+N_IMR)}。例如，如果ceil{Log2(N_CMR)}>ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}，那么当上报IMR索引时，只需要在ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}比特表示的IMR索引前面或后面补0，直至与CMR索引的比特长度相同即可。又例如，如果ceil{Log2(N_CMR)}<ceil{Log2(N_IMR)}，那么当上报CMR索引时，只需要在ceil{Log2(N_CMR)}比特表示的CMR索引前面或后面补0，直至与IMR索引的比特长度相同即可。
反之则在ceil{Log2(N_CMR)}比特表示的CMR索引前面或后面补0直至比特长度相同。可选的，也可以分为>和<＝两类。
与表1中的L1-SINR类似，表5中的L1-SINR也可以被量化为一个7比特的值进行上报。具体实现方式可以参考表2相关描述，此处不再赘述。
需要说明的是，表1-表5中的测量结果索引仅仅是为了描述方便而设置的。在实际的测量报告中，是不需要上报测量结果索引的，而是只上报表1-表5中所示的一组 或多组CSI测量结果。
