背景技术Background technique
在地面网络(Terrestrial Networks，TN)中FR1频段，终端设备可以同时进行层一(Layer1，L1)测量和层三(Layer3，L3)测量。在计算L1测量时间时，可以主要考虑测量资源与测量间隔(Measurement Gap，MG)的关系，L3测量也不会受到L1测量的影响。而在非地面网络(Non-Terrestrial Networks，NTN)中，会出现服务小区的L1测量与其他小区(来自不同卫星)的L3测量发生冲突的情况。这种情况下，终端设备可能无法同时进行L1测量和L3测量，因此测量时间的确定方式有所不同。In the FR1 frequency band of Terrestrial Networks (TN), terminal equipment can perform Layer 1 (Layer 1, L1) measurements and Layer 3 (Layer 3, L3) measurements at the same time. When calculating the L1 measurement time, the relationship between the measurement resources and the measurement gap (MG) can be mainly considered, and the L3 measurement will not be affected by the L1 measurement. In non-terrestrial networks (Non-Terrestrial Networks, NTN), there will be situations where the L1 measurement of the serving cell conflicts with the L3 measurement of other cells (from different satellites). In this case, the terminal device may not be able to perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, so the measurement time is determined differently.

The following related technologies can be optionally combined with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and they all belong to the embodiments of the present application. protected range.
1：TN测量1: TN measurement
L1测量包括无线链路监测(Radio Link Monitoring，RLM)、候选波束检测(Candidate Beam Detection，CBD)、波束失败监测(Beam Failure Detection，BFD)或L1-参考信号接收功率(Reference Signal Receiving Power，RSRP)测量等。L1测量可以基于同步信号和物理广播信道块(Synchronization Signal and PBCH Block，SSB)或信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signal，CSI-RS)等资源进行测量。L1 measurements include Radio Link Monitoring (RLM), Candidate Beam Detection (CBD), Beam Failure Detection (BFD) or L1-Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP) ) measurement, etc. L1 measurement can be measured based on resources such as synchronization signal and physical broadcast channel block (Synchronization Signal and PBCH Block, SSB) or channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information Reference Signal, CSI-RS).
在地面网络(TN)中，L1测量时间是基于以下基本假设得到的：In terrestrial networks (TN), L1 measurement time is based on the following basic assumptions:
(1)L1测量尽可能保持在MG之外；(1) L1 measurement is kept outside the MG as much as possible;
(2)FR1频段是支持L1和L3同时测量；(2) The FR1 frequency band supports simultaneous measurement of L1 and L3;
(3)FR2频段不支持L1和L3同时测量(UE可能需要不同的接收波束(Rx beam))。(3) The FR2 frequency band does not support simultaneous measurement of L1 and L3 (UE may require different receiving beams (Rx beam)).
上述假设可以体现在L1测量时间的缩放因子P的计算中。以基于SSB的RLM(SSB-based RLM)测量为例，对应L1测量资源的评估时间(简称L1测量时间)的一种示例性计算方式可以为：max(T_threshold,Nsample*P*T)。其中，T_shreshold是门限值，Nsample是基础采样个数，P是缩放因子，T是L1测量信号本身的周期和非连续接收(Discontinuous Reception，DRX)周期(cycle)的最大值。上述计算方式中，也可以先将公式中的某些部分做取整操作，从而计算L1测量时间，例如Nsample*ceil(P*T)。在基于SSB的L1测量中，在缩放因子P的计算方式中，需要从用于RLM的SSB时机中去掉与MG重叠的SSB时机。基于CSI-RS的L1测量与基于SSB的L1测量在缩放因子P的计算方式上是类似的。The above assumptions can be reflected in the calculation of the scaling factor P for the L1 measurement time. Taking SSB-based RLM measurement as an example, an exemplary calculation method for the evaluation time corresponding to L1 measurement resources (referred to as L1 measurement time) can be: max(T_threshold,Nsample*P*T). Among them, T_shreshold is the threshold value, Nsample is the number of basic samples, P is the scaling factor, and T is the maximum value of the period of the L1 measurement signal itself and the discontinuous reception (Discontinuous Reception, DRX) cycle. In the above calculation method, you can also round some parts of the formula first to calculate the L1 measurement time, such as Nsample*ceil(P*T). In SSB-based L1 measurement, in the calculation method of scaling factor P, SSB opportunities that overlap with MG need to be removed from the SSB opportunities used for RLM. The calculation method of scaling factor P is similar between CSI-RS-based L1 measurement and SSB-based L1 measurement.
基于SSB的L3测量主要是基于SSB测量时间配置(SSB Measurement Timing Configuration，SMTC)窗口来进行的，L3测量时间可以按照SMTC的周期来计算。基于CSI-RS的L3测量暂时没有配置测量 窗口，L3测量时间可以按照CSI-RS的周期来计算。L3 measurement based on SSB is mainly based on the SSB Measurement Timing Configuration (SMTC) window. The L3 measurement time can be calculated according to the SMTC cycle. There is currently no measurement window configured for L3 measurement based on CSI-RS. The L3 measurement time can be calculated according to the CSI-RS cycle.
对于FR2的在测量间隔之外的基于SSB的同频测量(SSB-based intra-frequency without gap)，和测量间隔之外的基于SSB的异频测量(inter-frequency without gap)的测量时间，额外考虑了缩放因子：K layer1_measurement。例如，在以下两种情况下，该缩放因子的取值1；否则L3SSB测量会与L1测量资源发生冲突，通过K layer1_measurement＝1.5放大测量时间： For the measurement time of FR2's SSB-based intra-frequency without gap outside the measurement interval and SSB-based inter-frequency without gap measurement outside the measurement interval, additional Taking into account scaling factor: K layer1_measurement . For example, in the following two cases, the scaling factor takes a value of 1; otherwise L3SSB measurement will conflict with L1 measurement resources, and the measurement time is amplified by K layer1_measurement = 1.5:
第一种情况，相同频带(band)内L1测量的参考信号在MG之外，但是没有完全与该L3SSB测量所配置的SMTC重叠(例如包含完全不重叠和不完全重叠的情况)。不完全重叠可以包括部分重叠和不重叠。In the first case, the reference signal for L1 measurement in the same frequency band is outside the MG, but does not completely overlap with the SMTC configured for the L3SSB measurement (for example, including complete non-overlap and incomplete overlap). Incomplete overlap can include partial overlap and no overlap.
第二种情况，相同频带(band)内L1测量的参考信号在MG之外，虽然与该L3SSB测量所配置的SMTC窗口完全重叠，但是与测量符号并没有重叠。In the second case, the reference signal for L1 measurement in the same frequency band is outside the MG. Although it completely overlaps with the SMTC window configured for the L3SSB measurement, it does not overlap with the measurement symbols.
2：NTN测量2: NTN measurement
NTN侧重在FR1的频分双工(Frequency Division Duplexing，FDD)频段。NTN focuses on the Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) frequency band of FR1.
NTN网络中的L1测量可以包括基于SSB和/或CSI-RS等参考信号的RLM，还可以包括BFD、CBD或L1-RSRP测量评估等。NTN网络中的L1测量时间(即评估时间)主要考虑两点增强：L1 measurements in NTN networks can include RLM based on reference signals such as SSB and/or CSI-RS, and can also include BFD, CBD or L1-RSRP measurement evaluation, etc. The L1 measurement time (i.e. evaluation time) in the NTN network mainly considers two enhancements:
(1)评估时间中增加缩放因子K。例如，对于GEO或者对地静止的卫星，引入K＝2来放松评估时间；对于对地移动的卫星，引入K＝0.5来缩短评估时间。例如，评估时间的一种计算方式的示例为：Max(200,Ceil(10×P)×[K]×T SSB)，其中Ceil()表示向上取整，T SSB表示SSB周期，P可以参考上述TN中的缩放因子P。 (1) Add scaling factor K to the evaluation time. For example, for GEO or geostationary satellites, K=2 is introduced to relax the evaluation time; for geomoving satellites, K=0.5 is introduced to shorten the evaluation time. For example, an example of a calculation method for evaluation time is: Max(200, Ceil(10×P)×[K]×T SSB ), where Ceil() represents rounding up, T SSB represents the SSB period, and P can refer to The scaling factor P in TN above.
(2)L1测量和L3测量之间的影响。不同于TN，在NTN中如果服务小区和邻小区属于不同的卫星，可能会有不同的到达时间和多普勒频移，导致UE无法同时执行L1和L3测量。因此，需要考虑L1测量和L3测量之间的影响。(2) The influence between L1 measurement and L3 measurement. Different from TN, in NTN, if the serving cell and neighboring cells belong to different satellites, there may be different arrival times and Doppler frequency shifts, causing the UE to be unable to perform L1 and L3 measurements at the same time. Therefore, the influence between L1 measurement and L3 measurement needs to be considered.
此外，对于间隙外(outside gap)的L3测量，NTN引入新的UE能力，用于表示“是否支持L3测量和服务小区的正常操作(包括L1测量和数据收发)同时进行”。当UE支持这一能力时，可以认为UE有单独的硬件和/或软件处理资源分别用于L3测量和服务小区的正常操作，两者之间不会相互影响。In addition, for L3 measurement outside the gap, NTN introduces new UE capabilities to indicate "whether L3 measurement and normal operation of the serving cell (including L1 measurement and data transmission and reception) are supported at the same time." When the UE supports this capability, it can be considered that the UE has separate hardware and/or software processing resources for L3 measurement and normal operation of the serving cell respectively, and the two will not affect each other.
在TN网络中FR1频段，UE可以同时进行L1测量和L3测量，即使在时域上冲突也不会相互影响。因此在计算L1测量时间时，可以只将与MG重叠的部分(L1测量资源中的部分时机)去掉来确定L1测量时间，并且，L3测量也不会受到L1测量的影响。而在NTN网络中，由于可能会出现服务小区的L1测量与其他小区的MG之外的L3测量发生冲突的情况。如果这两个小区属于不同的卫星，(例如，一个小区属于LEO，另一个小区属于GEO；或者两个小区属于不同的LEO)，这两个卫星所发送的信号的到达时间、多普勒偏移等特性会有很大区别。这种情况下，能力比较弱的UE可能无法同时进行L1测量和L3测量，因此需要对测量时间进行放松(或称为放大)。In the FR1 frequency band in the TN network, the UE can perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, and they will not affect each other even if they conflict in the time domain. Therefore, when calculating the L1 measurement time, only the portion that overlaps with the MG (part of the opportunities in the L1 measurement resource) can be removed to determine the L1 measurement time, and the L3 measurement will not be affected by the L1 measurement. In the NTN network, the L1 measurement of the serving cell may conflict with the L3 measurement of other cells other than the MG. If the two cells belong to different satellites (for example, one cell belongs to LEO and the other belongs to GEO; or the two cells belong to different LEO), the arrival time and Doppler deviation of the signals sent by the two satellites The transfer characteristics will be very different. In this case, the UE with relatively weak capabilities may not be able to perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, so the measurement time needs to be relaxed (or called amplification).

This method can optionally be applied to the system shown in Figure 1, but is not limited thereto. The method includes at least part of the following.
S210、终端设备基于第一信息确定测量资源所需的测量时间，其中，该第一信息包括该测量资源、测量时间配置(Measurement Timing Configuration，MTC)和卫星之间的关系。S210. The terminal device determines the measurement time required for the measurement resource based on the first information, where the first information includes the relationship between the measurement resource, measurement timing configuration (Measurement Timing Configuration, MTC), and satellites.
在本申请实施例中，终端设备可以基于例如SSB、CSI-RS等参考信号进行测量。这些参考信号所占用的时频资源可以称为测量资源。终端设备利用测量资源进行测量需要一定的时间，可以称为测量资源所需的测量时间，具体的根据不同的测量目的也可以称为评估时间、测量时间、PSS/SSS检测时间、SSB index获取时间等。MTC可以包括参考信号的MTC，不同参考信号可以对应不同的MTC。例如SSB对应的MTC，可以为SSB测量时间配置(SSB Measurement Timing Configuration，SMTC)。CSI-RS对应的MTC，可以为CSI-RS测量时间配置CMTC(CSI-RS Measurement Timing Configuration，CMTC)。PRS测量对应的测量窗口可以为PRS处理窗口(PRS Processing Window，PPW)也可以看作一种MTC。In this embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can perform measurements based on reference signals such as SSB and CSI-RS. The time-frequency resources occupied by these reference signals can be called measurement resources. It takes a certain amount of time for the terminal device to perform measurements using measurement resources, which can be called the measurement time required for the measurement resources. Specifically, it can also be called evaluation time, measurement time, PSS/SSS detection time, and SSB index acquisition time according to different measurement purposes. wait. The MTC may include the MTC of the reference signal, and different reference signals may correspond to different MTCs. For example, the MTC corresponding to SSB can be configured for SSB Measurement Timing Configuration (SMTC). The MTC corresponding to CSI-RS can configure CMTC (CSI-RS Measurement Timing Configuration, CMTC) for the CSI-RS measurement time. The measurement window corresponding to PRS measurement can be a PRS Processing Window (PPW) or can be regarded as a kind of MTC.
在一种实施方式中，该测量资源所需的测量时间的缩放因子适用于NTN网络。In one implementation, the scaling factor of the measurement time required by the measurement resources is applicable to NTN networks.
在一种实施方式中，该测量资源所需的测量时间的缩放因子适用于该终端设备不支持同时进行服务卫星的L1测量和非服务卫星的L3测量。In one implementation, the scaling factor of the measurement time required by the measurement resource is applicable when the terminal device does not support simultaneous L1 measurement of the serving satellite and L3 measurement of the non-serving satellite.
在一种实施方式中，该测量资源所需的测量时间的缩放因子适用于服务卫星和非服务卫星至少有一个不是GEO的情况。In one embodiment, the scaling factor of the measurement time required for the measurement resource is applicable to the case where at least one of the serving satellite and the non-serving satellite is not GEO.
在NTN中，终端设备的服务小区的测量与其他小区的测量可能发生冲突。例如，服务小区属于LEO，非服务小区属于GEO；或者两个小区属于不同的LEO。这些情况下，服务小区的L1测量与非服务小区的L3测量可能发生冲突。如果终端设备不能支持同时进行不同的测量，需要对测量资源所需的测量时间进行放松。In NTN, the measurement of the serving cell of the terminal device may conflict with the measurement of other cells. For example, the serving cell belongs to LEO and the non-serving cell belongs to GEO; or the two cells belong to different LEO. In these cases, the L1 measurement of the serving cell may conflict with the L3 measurement of the non-serving cell. If the terminal device cannot support different measurements at the same time, the measurement time required by the measurement resources needs to be relaxed.
在一种实施方式中，该第一信息包括：In one implementation, the first information includes:
测量资源与MTC的重叠关系；Overlapping relationship between measurement resources and MTC;
MTC与卫星的关联关系。The relationship between MTC and satellites.
在本申请实施例中，测量资源可以包括时域资源，例如包括多个测量时机，这些测量时机可能与MTC具有一定的重叠关系。例如，测量资源中的部分或全部测量时机与MTC重叠。在确定测量资源所需的测量时间时，可以考虑测量资源与MTC例如SMTC的重叠关系。例如，如果终端设备不能同时进行L1测量和L3测量，基于测量资源与SMTC的重叠关系，对L1测量时间和L3测量时间进行放松。In this embodiment of the present application, the measurement resources may include time domain resources, such as multiple measurement opportunities, and these measurement opportunities may have a certain overlapping relationship with the MTC. For example, some or all of the measurement opportunities in the measurement resources overlap with the MTC. When determining the measurement time required for the measurement resource, the overlapping relationship between the measurement resource and the MTC, such as SMTC, may be considered. For example, if the terminal device cannot perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, the L1 measurement time and L3 measurement time are relaxed based on the overlapping relationship between the measurement resources and SMTC.
在本申请实施例中，MTC与卫星具有多种关联关系。例如，一个MTC仅关联服务小区所属的卫星(可以简称服务卫星)，不关联非服务小区所属的卫星(可以简称非服务卫星)；另一个MTC关联非服务卫星。再如，MTC既能关联服务卫星，又能关联非服务卫星。在确定测量资源所需的测量时间时，可以考虑MTC与卫星的关联关系。例如，第一MTC仅关联服务卫星，不关联非服务卫星；第二MTC仅关联非服务卫星。这种情况下，如果终端设备不能同时进行L1测量和L3测量，主要基于测量资源与第二MTC的重叠关系，对L1测量时间和L3测量时间进行放松。例如，服务卫星和非服务卫星关联到同一个MTC，如果终端设备不能同时进行L1测量和L3测量，基于测量资源与该MTC的重叠关系，对L1测量时间和L3测量时间进行放松。In the embodiment of this application, MTC has multiple correlations with satellites. For example, one MTC is only associated with satellites to which the serving cell belongs (which may be referred to as serving satellites), and is not associated with satellites to which non-serving cells belong (which may be referred to as non-serving satellites); another MTC is associated with non-serving satellites. For another example, MTC can be associated with both serving satellites and non-serving satellites. When determining the measurement time required for measurement resources, the correlation between the MTC and the satellite can be considered. For example, the first MTC is only associated with serving satellites and not with non-serving satellites; the second MTC is only associated with non-serving satellites. In this case, if the terminal device cannot perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, the L1 measurement time and L3 measurement time are relaxed mainly based on the overlapping relationship between the measurement resources and the second MTC. For example, the serving satellite and the non-serving satellite are associated with the same MTC. If the terminal device cannot perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, the L1 measurement time and L3 measurement time will be relaxed based on the overlapping relationship between the measurement resources and the MTC.
在一种实施方式中，该第一信息还包括：该测量资源与测量间隙(MG)的位置关系。测量资源与MG的位置关系可以包括：测量资源与MG重叠或者，测量资源与MG不重叠等。In an implementation manner, the first information further includes: a positional relationship between the measurement resource and the measurement gap (MG). The location relationship between the measurement resource and the MG may include: the measurement resource overlaps with the MG or the measurement resource does not overlap with the MG, etc.
在本申请实施例中，可以先去掉测量资源与MG重叠的部分，再考虑MTC与卫星的关联关系，比较剩余的部分与MTC的重叠关系，进而确定测量资源所需的测量时间。In the embodiment of this application, the overlapping portion of the measurement resource and the MG can be removed first, and then the association relationship between the MTC and the satellite is considered, and the overlapping relationship between the remaining portion and the MTC is compared to determine the measurement time required for the measurement resource.
在本申请实施例中，卫星可以包括服务卫星和/或非服务卫星，需要确定测量时间的测量资源可以包括来自服务卫星的层一(L1)测量资源和/或来自服务卫星或非服务卫星的层三(L3)测量资源。In the embodiment of the present application, satellites may include serving satellites and/or non-serving satellites, and the measurement resources required to determine the measurement time may include layer one (L1) measurement resources from the serving satellites and/or from the serving satellites or non-serving satellites. Layer three (L3) measurement resources.
在本申请实施例中，L1测量资源所需的测量时间可以简称L1测量时间，L3测量资源所需的测量时间可以简称L3测量时间。如果终端设备不能同时进行L1测量和L3测量，在计算L1测量时间时可以考虑来自L3测量的影响。在计算L3测量时间时可以考虑来自L1测量的影响。In this embodiment of the present application, the measurement time required for L1 measurement resources may be referred to as L1 measurement time, and the measurement time required for L3 measurement resources may be referred to as L3 measurement time. If the terminal device cannot perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, the influence from L3 measurement can be considered when calculating the L1 measurement time. The influence from the L1 measurement can be taken into account when calculating the L3 measurement time.
在一种实施方式中，该通信方法还包括：In one implementation, the communication method further includes:
该终端设备接收配置信息，该配置信息中包括该MTC与该卫星的关联关系。例如，网络设备可以基于一定的约束生成配置信息并下发给终端设备，终端设备接收到来自网络设备的配置信息后，基于该配置信息中MTC与卫星的关联关系以及其他的重叠关系，来确定L1测量资源和/或L3测量资源所需的测量时间。The terminal device receives configuration information, and the configuration information includes the association relationship between the MTC and the satellite. For example, the network device can generate configuration information based on certain constraints and deliver it to the terminal device. After receiving the configuration information from the network device, the terminal device determines based on the association between the MTC and the satellite and other overlapping relationships in the configuration information. Measurement time required for L1 measurement resources and/or L3 measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，该MTC包括第一MTC和第二MTC，该MTC与该卫星的关联关系包括：第一MTC关联到服务卫星和第二MTC没有关联到服务卫星。In one implementation, the MTC includes a first MTC and a second MTC, and the association relationship between the MTC and the satellite includes: the first MTC is associated with the serving satellite and the second MTC is not associated with the serving satellite.
在一种实施方式中，该MTC与该卫星的关联关系还包括以下至少之一：In one embodiment, the association between the MTC and the satellite also includes at least one of the following:
该第一MTC只能关联到该服务卫星；The first MTC can only be associated with the serving satellite;
该服务卫星为GEO类型的卫星，该第一MTC只能关联到GEO类型的卫星，该第二MTC只能关联到非GEO类型的卫星。The serving satellite is a GEO type satellite, the first MTC can only be associated with a GEO type satellite, and the second MTC can only be associated with a non-GEO type satellite.
在一种实施方式中，如果该第一MTC只能关联到该服务卫星，则该L1测量资源所需的L1测量时间是基于第一缩放因子确定的，该第一缩放因子是基于该L1测量资源与该MG的位置关系，以及该L1测量资源与该第二MTC的重叠关系确定的。In one implementation, if the first MTC can only be associated with the serving satellite, the L1 measurement time required for the L1 measurement resource is determined based on a first scaling factor based on the L1 measurement The location relationship between the resource and the MG, and the overlapping relationship between the L1 measurement resource and the second MTC are determined.
在一种实施方式中，如果服务卫星为GEO类型的卫星，第一MTC只能关联到GEO类型的卫星，不能关联到其他类型的卫星如LEO类型的卫星。对于没有关联到服务卫星的第二MTC，可进一步分为关联到GEO和关联到非GEO卫星两种。如果该第二MTC关联的卫星都是GEO，则不存在与L1测量相互冲突的问题，后续方案中可以不考虑这种MTC。如果该第二MTC关联的卫星包含一个非GEO卫星，则存在与服务小区的L1测量相互冲突的问题，则该L1测量资源所需的L1测量时间是基于第一缩放因子确定的，该第一缩放因子是基于该L1测量资源与该MG的位置关系，以及该L1测量资源与第二种类型的第二MTC的重叠关系确定的。In one implementation, if the serving satellite is a GEO type satellite, the first MTC can only be associated with the GEO type satellite and cannot be associated with other types of satellites such as LEO type satellites. For the second MTC that is not associated with the serving satellite, it can be further divided into two types: associated with GEO and associated with non-GEO satellites. If the satellites associated with the second MTC are all GEO, there will be no conflict with L1 measurements, and this MTC does not need to be considered in subsequent solutions. If the satellite associated with the second MTC includes a non-GEO satellite, there is a problem of conflicting L1 measurements with the serving cell, then the L1 measurement time required for the L1 measurement resource is determined based on the first scaling factor. The scaling factor is determined based on the location relationship between the L1 measurement resource and the MG, and the overlapping relationship between the L1 measurement resource and the second type of second MTC.
在一种实施方式中，终端设备的服务卫星关联到第一MTC，并且该第一MTC不能关联其他卫星(非服务卫星)，其他卫星只能关联到与第一MTC不同的第二MTC。这样，在计算L1测量时间时，不需要从L1测量资源中排除与服务卫星关联的第一MTC，终端设备可以同时对服务卫星进行L1测量和L3测量。如果从L1测量资源中去掉与MG和非服务卫星关联的第二MTC重叠的部分后，还有剩余的L1测量资源(即第一剩余测量资源)，可以基于L1测量资源的总数的与实际可用的L1测量资源(即第一剩余测量资源)比例来计算第一缩放因子，进而计算L1测量时间。如果从L1测量资源中去掉与MG重叠的部分后，剩余的L1测量资源(即第二剩余测量资源)都与非服务卫星关联的第二MTC重叠，则可以对MG之外的部分(即第二剩余测量资源)进行L1测量和L3测量的分配或分享(sharing)。 例如，基于L1测量资源的总数的与第二剩余测量资源比例来计算第一缩放因子，进而计算L1测量时间。In one implementation, the serving satellite of the terminal device is associated with a first MTC, and the first MTC cannot be associated with other satellites (non-serving satellites), and other satellites can only be associated with a second MTC that is different from the first MTC. In this way, when calculating the L1 measurement time, there is no need to exclude the first MTC associated with the serving satellite from the L1 measurement resource, and the terminal device can perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement on the serving satellite at the same time. If after removing the overlapping portion of the second MTC associated with the MG and non-serving satellites from the L1 measurement resources, there are still remaining L1 measurement resources (i.e., the first remaining measurement resources), the total number of L1 measurement resources can be compared with the actual available The first scaling factor is calculated based on the proportion of the L1 measurement resources (ie, the first remaining measurement resources), and then the L1 measurement time is calculated. If after removing the part overlapping with the MG from the L1 measurement resources, the remaining L1 measurement resources (i.e., the second remaining measurement resources) overlap with the second MTC associated with the non-serving satellite, then the part outside the MG (i.e., the second remaining measurement resource) can be 2. Remaining measurement resources) perform allocation or sharing of L1 measurement and L3 measurement. For example, the first scaling factor is calculated based on the ratio of the total number of L1 measurement resources to the second remaining measurement resources, and then the L1 measurement time is calculated.
在一种实施方式中，该第一缩放因子是基于第一时间窗口内的分享因子、该L1测量资源的总数和第一测量资源的个数确定的。In one implementation, the first scaling factor is determined based on the sharing factor within the first time window, the total number of L1 measurement resources, and the number of first measurement resources.
在本申请实施例中，该分享因子可以用于对MG之外的L1测量资源进行L1测量和L3测量的分配或分享。分享因子也可以称为分配因子或其他，在此不做限定。In this embodiment of the present application, the sharing factor can be used to allocate or share L1 measurement and L3 measurement resources outside the MG. The sharing factor may also be called a distribution factor or something else, and is not limited here.
在一种实施方式中，该第一缩放因子等于该分享因子乘以该L1测量资源的总数并除以该第一测量资源的个数。此外，也可以先计算该L1测量资源的总数除以该第一测量资源的个数并向上取整，再用分享因子乘以向上取整的结果。In one implementation, the first scaling factor is equal to the sharing factor multiplied by the total number of L1 measurement resources and divided by the number of the first measurement resources. In addition, the total number of L1 measurement resources may also be calculated first, divided by the number of the first measurement resources, rounded up, and then multiplied by the sharing factor by the rounded result.
例如，第一缩放因子P1＝P sharing factor×N L1/N M1。其中，P sharing factor为分享因子；N L1为在一定的时间窗口内的L1测量资源的总数，N M1为第一测量资源的个数。再如，第一缩放因子的公式可以变形，比如P1＝P sharing factor×ceil(N L1/N M)。ceil()表示向上取整。 For example, the first scaling factor P1=P sharing factor ×N L1 /N M1 . Among them, P sharing factor is the sharing factor; N L1 is the total number of L1 measurement resources within a certain time window, and N M1 is the number of first measurement resources. For another example, the formula of the first scaling factor can be modified, such as P1=P sharing factor ×ceil(N L1 /N M ). ceil() means rounding up.
在本申请实施例的各种缩放因子的计算公式中，可以根据具体情况选择对某些中间结果进行向上取整后再进行其他计算，在此不做限定。In the calculation formulas of various scaling factors in the embodiments of this application, you can choose to round up some intermediate results according to specific circumstances and then perform other calculations, which are not limited here.
在一种实施方式中，第一测量资源的个数可以基于第一剩余测量资源的个数或第二剩余测量资源的个数来确定。In an implementation manner, the number of first measurement resources may be determined based on the number of first remaining measurement resources or the number of second remaining measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，一定的时间窗口可以是测量资源的周期、MG周期、SMTC之间的最大值，或者是测量资源的周期、MG周期、SMTC的最小公倍数。In one implementation, the certain time window may be the maximum value between the measurement resource period, the MG period, and the SMTC, or the least common multiple of the measurement resource period, the MG period, and the SMTC.
在一种实施方式中，该第一剩余测量资源为从该L1测量资源中去除与该MG重叠和该第二MTC重叠的测量资源后剩余的测量资源。In an implementation manner, the first remaining measurement resources are measurement resources remaining after removing measurement resources that overlap with the MG and the second MTC from the L1 measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，该第二剩余测量资源为从该L1测量资源中去除与该MG重叠的测量资源后剩余的测量资源。In an implementation manner, the second remaining measurement resources are measurement resources remaining after removing measurement resources that overlap with the MG from the L1 measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，在第一剩余测量资源的个数不为0的情况下，该第一测量资源的个数等于该第一剩余测量资源的个数，该分享因子为1，该第一测量资源的个数等于该第一剩余测量资源的个数。In an implementation manner, when the number of the first remaining measurement resources is not 0, the number of the first measurement resources is equal to the number of the first remaining measurement resources, the sharing factor is 1, and the number of the first remaining measurement resources is 1. The number of one measurement resource is equal to the number of the first remaining measurement resources.
接上例，如果实际可用的L1测量资源(即第一剩余测量资源)的个数N available＝N L1–N mg-N mtc2>0。其中，N mg表示在上述时间窗口内与MG重叠的L1测量资源的时机个数，N mtc2表示在上述时间窗口内与第二MTC重叠但不与MG重叠的L1测量资源的时机个数。因此，第一测量资源的个数N M1可以为实际可用的L1测量资源的个数。第一缩放因子P1＝P sharing factor×N L1/N available。由于P sharing factor＝1，P1＝N L1/N available。 Continuing from the above example, if the number of actually available L1 measurement resources (ie, the first remaining measurement resources) N available =N L1 –N mg -N mtc2 >0. Among them, N mg represents the number of opportunities for L1 measurement resources that overlap with the MG in the above time window, and N mtc2 represents the number of opportunities for L1 measurement resources that overlap with the second MTC but do not overlap with the MG within the above time window. Therefore, the number of first measurement resources N M1 may be the number of actually available L1 measurement resources. The first scaling factor P1=P sharing factor ×N L1 /N available . Since P sharing factor =1, P1=N L1 /N available .
在一种实施方式中，在第一剩余测量资源的个数为0但第二剩余测量资源的个数大于0的情况下，该第一测量资源的个数为该第二剩余测量资源的个数，该第一测量资源的个数等于该第二剩余测量资源的个数。In an implementation manner, when the number of the first remaining measurement resources is 0 but the number of the second remaining measurement resources is greater than 0, the number of the first measurement resources is the number of the second remaining measurement resources. The number of first measurement resources is equal to the number of second remaining measurement resources.
接上例，如果实际可用的L1测量资源(即第一剩余测量资源)的个数N available＝N L1–N mg-N mtc2＝0，则N L1–N mg＝N mtc2。第二剩余测量资源的个数等于在上述时间窗口内与第二MTC重叠但与MG不重叠的L1测量资源的时机个数N mtc2。如果N mtc2大于0，第一测量资源的个数也等于N mtc2。因此，第一缩放因子P1＝P sharing factor×N L1/N mtc2。 Continuing from the above example, if the number of actually available L1 measurement resources (ie, the first remaining measurement resources) N available =N L1 –N mg -N mtc2 =0, then N L1 –N mg =N mtc2 . The number of second remaining measurement resources is equal to the number of opportunities N mtc2 of L1 measurement resources that overlap with the second MTC but do not overlap with the MG within the above time window. If N mtc2 is greater than 0, the number of first measurement resources is also equal to N mtc2 . Therefore, the first scaling factor P1=P sharing factor ×N L1 /N mtc2 .
在第一剩余测量资源的个数为0但第二剩余测量资源的个数大于0的情况下，该分享因子的确定方式包括以下至少之一：In the case where the number of the first remaining measurement resources is 0 but the number of the second remaining measurement resources is greater than 0, the method of determining the sharing factor includes at least one of the following:
该分享因子为大于1的整数；The sharing factor is an integer greater than 1;
该分享因子的取值基于L1测量资源与L3测量的目标符号的重叠关系来确定；The value of this sharing factor is determined based on the overlapping relationship between L1 measurement resources and L3 measurement target symbols;
该分享因子是基于该L3测量的MTC的缩放因子确定的。The sharing factor is determined based on the scaling factor of the L3 measured MTC.
例如，分享因子可以固定为一个大于1的整数，例如3。这种情况下，如果第一剩余测量资源的个数为0但第二剩余测量资源的个数大于0，则P1＝3×N L1/N mtc2。 For example, the sharing factor can be fixed to an integer greater than 1, such as 3. In this case, if the number of the first remaining measurement resources is 0 but the number of the second remaining measurement resources is greater than 0, then P1=3×N L1 /N mtc2 .
再如，如果基于L1测量资源与L3测量的目标符号的重叠关系来确定分享因子的取值，在该L1测量资源与L3测量的目标符号均不重叠的情况下，该分享因子为1，否则该分享因子大于1。For another example, if the value of the sharing factor is determined based on the overlapping relationship between the L1 measurement resource and the target symbol measured by L3, and the L1 measurement resource and the target symbol measured by L3 do not overlap, the sharing factor is 1, otherwise The sharing factor is greater than 1.
再如，分享因子可以等于该L3测量的MTC的缩放因子例如K1或K2，还可以等于K1或K2加上设定值。For another example, the sharing factor may be equal to the scaling factor of the L3 measured MTC, such as K1 or K2, or may be equal to K1 or K2 plus a set value.
上述的目标符号可以包括以下至少之一：SSB符号；RSSI测量符号；SSB符号和RSSI符号之前和/或之后各M个符号，M大于或等于1；其中，该SSB符号是通过SSB测量指示SSB-ToMeasure配置的，该RSSI符号是通过SS-RSSI测量指示SS-RSSI-Measurement配置的。The above-mentioned target symbols may include at least one of the following: SSB symbols; RSSI measurement symbols; M symbols before and/or after the SSB symbol and the RSSI symbol, M is greater than or equal to 1; wherein, the SSB symbol indicates SSB through SSB measurement -ToMeasure configured, the RSSI symbol is configured through the SS-RSSI measurement instruction SS-RSSI-Measurement.
在一种实施方式中，该第一缩放因子是基于SSB的周期T SSB、第二MTC的周期T MTCperiod、测量间隔重复周期MGRP和分享因子的至少之一确定的。 In one embodiment, the first scaling factor is determined based on at least one of the period T SSB of the SSB, the period T MTCperiod of the second MTC, the measurement interval repetition period MGRP, and the sharing factor.
在一种实施方式中，该第一缩放因子的确定方式包括以下至少之一：In one implementation, the first scaling factor is determined by at least one of the following:
情况1：在该L1测量资源与该MG不重叠且与该第二MTC部分重叠的情况下，该第一缩放因子是基于T SSB和T MTCperiod计算的。例如，T SSB＜T MTCperiod，第一缩放因子

Case 1: In the case that the L1 measurement resource does not overlap with the MG and partially overlaps with the second MTC, the first scaling factor is calculated based on TSSB and TMTCperiod . For example, T SSB <T MTCperiod , the first scaling factor
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000001
情况2：在该L1测量资源与该MG不重叠且与该第二MTC完全重叠的情况下，该第一缩放因子等于该分享因子。例如，T SSB＝T MTCperiod，第一缩放因子P1＝P sharing factor。 Case 2: In the case where the L1 measurement resource does not overlap the MG and completely overlaps the second MTC, the first scaling factor is equal to the sharing factor. For example, T SSB = TMTCperiod and the first scaling factor P1 =P sharing factor .
情况3：在该L1测量资源与该MG部分重叠且与该第二MTC部分重叠、该第二MTC与该MG不重叠的情况下，该第一缩放因子是基于T SSB、MGRP和T MTCperiod计算的。例如，T MTCperiod≠MGRP，或T MTCperiod＝MGRP并且T SSB<0.5×T MTCperiod，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000002
Case 3: In the case where the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with the MG and partially overlaps with the second MTC, but the second MTC does not overlap with the MG, the first scaling factor is calculated based on T SSB , MGRP and TMTCperiod of. For example, TMTCperiod ≠MGRP, or TMTCperiod =MGRP and TSSB <0.5× TMTCperiod ,

情况4：在该L1测量资源与该MG部分重叠且与该第二MTC部分重叠、该第二MTC与该MG不重叠的情况下，该第一缩放因子是基于T SSB、MGRP和该分享因子计算的。例如，T MTCperiod＝MGRP并且T SSB＝0.5×T MTCperiod，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000003
Case 4: In the case where the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with the MG and partially overlaps with the second MTC, but the second MTC does not overlap with the MG, the first scaling factor is based on T SSB , MGRP and the sharing factor computational. For example, TMTCperiod =MGRP and TSSB =0.5× TMTCperiod ,
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000003
情况5：在该L1测量资源与该MG部分重叠且与该第二MTC部分重叠、该第二MTC与该MG部分重叠或完全重叠的情况下，该第一缩放因子是基于T SSB和T MTCperiod计算的。例如，T SSB＜T MTCperiod，第一缩放因子
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000004
Case 5: In the case that the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with the MG and partially overlaps with the second MTC, and the second MTC partially overlaps or completely overlaps with the MG, the first scaling factor is based on T SSB and T MTCperiod computational. For example, T SSB <T MTCperiod , the first scaling factor
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000004
情况6：在该L1测量资源与该MG部分重叠且与该第二MTC完全重叠、该第二MTC与该MG部分重叠的情况下，该第一缩放因子是基于T SSB、MGRP和该分享因子计算的。例如，T SSB＝T MTCperiod并且T MTCperiod＜MGRP，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000005
Case 6: In the case where the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with the MG and completely overlaps with the second MTC, and the second MTC partially overlaps with the MG, the first scaling factor is based on T SSB , MGRP and the sharing factor computational. For example, T SSB = T MTCperiod and T MTCperiod < MGRP,
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000005
在一种实施方式中，该L1测量资源所需的L1测量时间是基于第二缩放因子确定的，该第二缩放因子是基于该L1测量资源与该第二MTC的重叠关系确定的。In one implementation, the L1 measurement time required by the L1 measurement resource is determined based on a second scaling factor, and the second scaling factor is determined based on an overlapping relationship between the L1 measurement resource and the second MTC.
例如，不改变原来用于计算L1测量时间的缩放因子P，而是新增一个第二缩放因子为P2，利用P和P2一起计算放松的L1测量时间。例如，利用缩放因子P计算得到的L1测量时间为T1，利用P和P2一起计算放松的L1测量时间为T2，T2＝T1×P2。For example, instead of changing the scaling factor P originally used to calculate the L1 measurement time, a second scaling factor is added as P2, and P and P2 are used together to calculate the relaxed L1 measurement time. For example, the L1 measurement time calculated using the scaling factor P is T1, and the relaxed L1 measurement time calculated using P and P2 together is T2, T2=T1×P2.
在一种实施方式中，该第二缩放因子是基于第一时间窗口内的分享因子、第一测量资源的个数和该第二测量资源的个数确定的。In one implementation, the second scaling factor is determined based on the sharing factor within the first time window, the number of first measurement resources, and the number of second measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，该第二缩放因子等于分享因子乘以该第二测量资源的个数并除以该第一测量资源的个数。In one implementation, the second scaling factor is equal to the sharing factor multiplied by the number of the second measurement resources and divided by the number of the first measurement resources.
例如，第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×N M2/N M1。其中，P sharing factor为分享因子；N M2为第二测量资源的个数，N M1为第一测量资源的个数。 For example, the second scaling factor P2=P sharing factor ×N M2 /N M1 . Among them, P sharing factor is the sharing factor; N M2 is the number of the second measurement resources, and N M1 is the number of the first measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，该第二测量资源的个数等于该L1测量资源的总数或第二剩余测量资源的个数，该第二剩余测量资源为从该L1测量资源中去除与该MG重叠的测量资源后剩余的测量资源。In one implementation, the number of the second measurement resources is equal to the total number of the L1 measurement resources or the number of second remaining measurement resources. The second remaining measurement resources are removed from the L1 measurement resources that overlap with the MG. The remaining measurement resources after the measurement resources.
在一种实施方式中，在该第二剩余测量资源与该第二MTC部分重叠的情况下，该第一测量资源的个数等于该第二测量资源的个数减去与该第二MTC重叠的资源个数，该分享因子为1，该第二缩放因子等于该第二测量资源的个数除以该第一测量资源的个数。In one implementation, in the case where the second remaining measurement resources partially overlap with the second MTC, the number of the first measurement resources is equal to the number of the second measurement resources minus the overlap with the second MTC. The number of resources, the sharing factor is 1, and the second scaling factor is equal to the number of the second measurement resources divided by the number of the first measurement resources.
例如，如果第二测量资源的个数等于该L1测量资源的总数N M2＝N L1，该第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing  factor×N M2/N M1＝P sharing factor×N L1/N M1。如果第二剩余测量资源与该第二MTC部分重叠，则N L1–N mg＞N mtc2。这种情况下，第一测量资源的个数等于该第二测量资源的个数减去与该第二MTC重叠的资源个数，则N M1＝N M2–N mtc2＝N L1–N mtc2。如果分享因子为1，该第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×N L1/N M1＝N L1/N M1＝N L1/(N L1–N mtc2)。这种情况下，第二缩放因子等于L1测量资源的总数N L1除以去除与第二MTC重叠的部分后的L1测量资源的个数(N L1–N mtc2)。 For example, if the number of second measurement resources is equal to the total number of L1 measurement resources N M2 =N L1 , the second scaling factor P2 =P sharing factor ×N M2 /N M1 =P sharing factor ×N L1 /N M1 . If the second remaining measurement resource partially overlaps with the second MTC, then N L1 –N mg >N mtc2 . In this case, the number of first measurement resources is equal to the number of second measurement resources minus the number of resources overlapping with the second MTC, then N M1 =N M2 –N mtc2 =N L1 –N mtc2 . If the sharing factor is 1, the second scaling factor P2=P sharing factor ×N L1 /N M1 =N L1 /N M1 =N L1 /(N L1 –N mtc2 ). In this case, the second scaling factor is equal to the total number of L1 measurement resources N L1 divided by the number of L1 measurement resources after removing the overlap with the second MTC (N L1 –N mtc2 ).
再如，如果第二测量资源的个数等于第二剩余测量资源的个数N M2＝N L1–N mg，该第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×N M2/N M1＝P sharing factor×(N L1–N mg)/N M1。这种情况下，第一测量资源的个数等于该第二测量资源的个数减去与该第二MTC重叠的资源个数，则N M1＝N M2–N mtc2＝N L1–N mg–N mtc2。如果分享因子为1，该第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×(N L1–N mg)/N M1＝(N L1–N mg)/N M1＝(N L1–N mg)/(N L1–N mg–N mtc2)。这种情况下，第二缩放因子等于与该第二剩余测量资源个数(N L1–N mg)除以第一剩余测量资源的个数(N L1–N mg–N mtc2)。 For another example, if the number of second measurement resources is equal to the number of second remaining measurement resources N M2 =N L1 –N mg , the second scaling factor P2 =P sharing factor ×N M2 /N M1 =P sharing factor × (N L1 –N mg )/N M1 . In this case, the number of first measurement resources is equal to the number of second measurement resources minus the number of resources overlapping with the second MTC, then N M1 =N M2 –N mtc2 =N L1 –N mg – N mtc2 . If the sharing factor is 1, the second scaling factor P2=P sharing factor ×(N L1 –N mg )/N M1 =(N L1 –N mg )/N M1 =(N L1 –N mg )/(N L1 –N mg –N mtc2 ). In this case, the second scaling factor is equal to the number of second remaining measurement resources (N L1 –N mg ) divided by the number of first remaining measurement resources (N L1 –N mg –N mtc2 ).
在一种实施方式中，在该第二剩余测量资源与该第二MTC完全重叠的情况下，该第一测量资源的个数等于该第二测量资源的个数，该第二缩放因子等于该分享因子。In an implementation manner, when the second remaining measurement resources completely overlap with the second MTC, the number of the first measurement resources is equal to the number of the second measurement resources, and the second scaling factor is equal to the Share factor.
例如，如果第二测量资源的个数等于该L1测量资源的总数N M2＝N L1，该第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing  factor×N M2/N M1＝P sharing factor×N L1/N M1。如果第二剩余测量资源与该第二MTC完全重叠，则N L1–N mg＝N mtc2。这种情况下，第一测量资源的个数等于该第二测量资源的个数，则N M1＝N M2＝N L1。第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×N L1/N M1＝P sharing factor×N L1/N L1＝P sharing factor。 For example, if the number of second measurement resources is equal to the total number of L1 measurement resources N M2 =N L1 , the second scaling factor P2 =P sharing factor ×N M2 /N M1 =P sharing factor ×N L1 /N M1 . If the second remaining measurement resource completely overlaps with the second MTC, then N L1 –N mg =N mtc2 . In this case, the number of first measurement resources is equal to the number of second measurement resources, then N M1 =N M2 =N L1 . The second scaling factor P2=P sharing factor ×N L1 /N M1 =P sharing factor ×N L1 /N L1 =P sharing factor .
再如，如果第二测量资源的个数等于第二剩余测量资源的个数N M2＝N L1–N mg＝N mtc2，该第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×N M2/N M1＝P sharing factor×N mtc2/N M1。这种情况下，第一测量资源的个数等于该第二测量资源的个数，则N M1＝N M2＝N L1–N mg＝N mtc2。第二缩放因子P2＝P sharing factor×N mtc2/N M1＝P sharing factor×N mtc2/(N L1–N mtc2) 1＝P sharing factor×N mtc2/N mtc2＝P sharing factor。 For another example, if the number of second measurement resources is equal to the number of second remaining measurement resources N M2 =N L1 –N mg =N mtc2 , the second scaling factor P2 =P sharing factor ×N M2 /N M1 =P sharing factor ×N mtc2 /N M1 . In this case, the number of first measurement resources is equal to the number of second measurement resources, then N M1 =N M2 =N L1 –N mg =N mtc2 . The second scaling factor P2=P sharing factor ×N mtc2 /N M1 =P sharing factor ×N mtc2 /(N L1 –N mtc2 ) 1 =P sharing factor ×N mtc2 /N mtc2 =P sharing factor .
在一种实施方式中，在该第二测量资源与该第二SMTC完全重叠的情况下，该分享因子的确定方式包括以下至少之一：In one implementation, when the second measurement resource completely overlaps with the second SMTC, the method of determining the sharing factor includes at least one of the following:
该分享因子为大于1的整数；The sharing factor is an integer greater than 1;
该分享因子的取值基于L1测量资源与L3测量的目标符号的重叠关系来确定；The value of this sharing factor is determined based on the overlapping relationship between L1 measurement resources and L3 measurement target symbols;
该分享因子是基于该L3测量的MTC的缩放因子确定的。The sharing factor is determined based on the scaling factor of the L3 measured MTC.
在一种实施方式中，在该L1测量资源与L3测量的目标符号均不重叠的情况下，该分享因子为1，否则该分享因子大于1。In one implementation, when the L1 measurement resource and the L3 measurement target symbol do not overlap, the sharing factor is 1; otherwise, the sharing factor is greater than 1.
其中，该分享因子的具体示例可以参见上述实施方式中的相关描述。For specific examples of the sharing factor, please refer to the relevant descriptions in the above embodiments.
在一种实施方式中，该L1测量资源所需的L1测量时间是基于第三缩放因子确定的，该第三缩放因子是基于第一时间窗口内与第三测量资源重叠的L3测量的MTC的缩放因子以及该MTC是否关联到服务卫星确定的。In one implementation, the L1 measurement time required for the L1 measurement resource is determined based on a third scaling factor based on the MTC of the L3 measurement that overlaps with the third measurement resource within the first time window. The scaling factor is determined by whether the MTC is associated with the serving satellite.
例如，不改变原来用于计算L1测量时间的缩放因子P，而是新增一个第三缩放因子为P3，利用P和P3一起计算放松的L1测量时间。例如，利用缩放因子P计算得到的L1测量时间为T1，利用P和P3一起计算放松的L1测量时间为T3，T3＝T1×P3。For example, instead of changing the scaling factor P originally used to calculate the L1 measurement time, a third scaling factor is added as P3, and P and P3 are used together to calculate the relaxed L1 measurement time. For example, the L1 measurement time calculated using the scaling factor P is T1, and the relaxed L1 measurement time calculated using P and P3 together is T3, T3=T1×P3.
在一种实施方式中，该第三测量资源包括第二剩余测量资源，该第二剩余测量资源为从该L1测量资源中去除与该MG重叠的测量资源后剩余的测量资源。例如，第三测量资源的个数为N M3，并且N M3＝N L1–N mg。 In an implementation manner, the third measurement resource includes a second remaining measurement resource, and the second remaining measurement resource is a measurement resource remaining after removing measurement resources that overlap with the MG from the L1 measurement resource. For example, the number of third measurement resources is N M3 , and N M3 =N L1 –N mg .
在一种实施方式中，该第三缩放因子为与该第二剩余测量资源重叠的多个该MTC的缩放因子的最大值，或该最大值乘以第一设定值。In one implementation, the third scaling factor is a maximum value of a plurality of scaling factors of the MTCs that overlap with the second remaining measurement resource, or the maximum value is multiplied by the first set value.
例如，第三缩放因子P3＝max(P mtc_i)×Pc。其中，P mtc_i为与第二剩余测量资源重叠的第i个MTC的缩放因子，Pc可以为一个固定值。 For example, the third scaling factor P3=max(P mtc_i )×Pc. Among them, P mtc_i is the scaling factor of the i-th MTC that overlaps with the second remaining measurement resource, and Pc can be a fixed value.
在一种实施方式中，该MTC的缩放因子的确定方式包括以下至少之一：In one implementation, the method for determining the scaling factor of the MTC includes at least one of the following:

其中，该第四缩放因子和/或第五缩放因子是基于该MTC所关联的卫星个数、类型和该终端设备能够测量的最大卫星个数计算的。The fourth scaling factor and/or the fifth scaling factor are calculated based on the number and type of satellites associated with the MTC and the maximum number of satellites that the terminal device can measure.
例如，该MTC的缩放因子P mtc_i的取值方式可以与该MTC是否关联到服务卫星有关。例如，如果该MTC关联到服务卫星，则P mtc_i的取值为第四缩放因子K1或第五缩放因子K2；如果该MTC未关联到服务卫星，则P mtc_i的取值为K1+1或K2+1。其中，K1是针对关联的纯LEO或者单一类型卫星的情况，可以根据第i个MTC关联的卫星的个数、该终端设备能够测量到的最大卫星个数等确定。K2可以根据包括与该MTC重叠的其他的MTC的个数和K1等确定。 For example, the value of the scaling factor P mtc_i of the MTC may be related to whether the MTC is associated with a serving satellite. For example, if the MTC is associated with a serving satellite, the value of P mtc_i is the fourth scaling factor K1 or the fifth scaling factor K2; if the MTC is not associated with a serving satellite, the value of P mtc_i is K1+1 or K2 +1. Among them, K1 is for the case of associated pure LEO or single type satellites, and can be determined based on the number of satellites associated with the i-th MTC, the maximum number of satellites that can be measured by the terminal equipment, etc. K2 can be determined based on the number of other MTCs that overlap with the MTC, K1, etc.
在一种实施方式中，该终端设备的能力不支持在L1测量频点进行L1测量的同时在该MTC对应的L3测量频点进行L3测量。In one embodiment, the capability of the terminal device does not support L1 measurement at the L1 measurement frequency point and L3 measurement at the L3 measurement frequency point corresponding to the MTC.

Measurement. When the third capability indication is a certain value, such as 0, it may indicate that it is not supported, and any of the above methods in the embodiments of the present application may be used to relax the L1 measurement time and/or the L3 measurement time.
在一种实施方式中，该MTC包括该L3测量频点上与该L1测量资源有重叠的MTC；或者，该MTC包括该L3测量频点上与该第二剩余测量资源有重叠的MTC。例如，不支持在L1测量频点进行L1测量的同时在该MTC对应的L3测量频点进行L3测量，如果该MTC包括该L3测量频点上与该L1测量资源有重叠的MTC，表示L1测量频点与L3测量频点冲突；如果该MTC包括该L3测量频点上与该第二剩余测量资源(即去掉与MG重叠部分的L1测量资源)有重叠的MTC，也表示L1测量频点与L3测量频点冲突。In one implementation, the MTC includes an MTC that overlaps with the L1 measurement resource on the L3 measurement frequency point; or, the MTC includes an MTC that overlaps with the second remaining measurement resource on the L3 measurement frequency point. For example, it is not supported to perform L1 measurement at the L1 measurement frequency point while performing L3 measurement at the L3 measurement frequency point corresponding to the MTC. If the MTC includes an MTC on the L3 measurement frequency point that overlaps with the L1 measurement resource, it means L1 measurement The frequency point conflicts with the L3 measurement frequency point; if the MTC includes the MTC on the L3 measurement frequency point that overlaps with the second remaining measurement resource (that is, the L1 measurement resource excluding the overlap with the MG), it also means that the L1 measurement frequency point and L3 measurement frequency conflict.
在一种实施方式中，该非服务卫星的L3测量资源所需的L3测量时间是基于第六缩放因子确定的，该第六缩放因子是基于L3测量的MTC与该L1测量资源的重叠关系确定的。例如，L3测量的MTC与该L1测量资源的重叠关系可以包括不完全重叠和完全重叠。在不完全重叠与完全重叠的情况下，第六缩放因子的取值不同。例如，在不完全重叠第六缩放因子为1，不需要放大L3测量时间。在完全重叠的情况下，第六缩放因子大于1。In one implementation, the L3 measurement time required for the L3 measurement resource of the non-serving satellite is determined based on a sixth scaling factor, which is determined based on the overlapping relationship between the L3 measured MTC and the L1 measurement resource. of. For example, the overlapping relationship between the L3 measured MTC and the L1 measured resource may include incomplete overlap and complete overlap. The value of the sixth scaling factor is different in the case of incomplete overlap and complete overlap. For example, at incomplete overlap the sixth scaling factor is 1 and there is no need to scale up the L3 measurement time. In the case of complete overlap, the sixth scaling factor is greater than 1.
在一种实施方式中，该第六缩放因子是基于该MTC的缩放因子以及该MTC与该L1测量资源的重叠关系确定的。例如，除了L3测量的MTC与该L1测量资源的重叠关系之外，还可以集合K1或K2确定该第六缩放因子，进而确定L3测量时间。In one implementation, the sixth scaling factor is determined based on the scaling factor of the MTC and the overlapping relationship between the MTC and the L1 measurement resource. For example, in addition to the overlapping relationship between the L3 measured MTC and the L1 measurement resource, K1 or K2 can also be collected to determine the sixth scaling factor, and then determine the L3 measurement time.
在一种实施方式中，该第六缩放因子的确定方式包括以下至少之一：In one implementation, the sixth scaling factor is determined by at least one of the following:

在一种实施方式中，该第四测量资源包括第二剩余测量资源，该第二剩余测量资源为从该L1测量资源中去除与该MG重叠的测量资源后剩余的测量资源。例如，第四测量资源可以包括去除与MG重叠的部分的L1测量资源。In one implementation, the fourth measurement resource includes a second remaining measurement resource, and the second remaining measurement resource is a measurement resource remaining after removing measurement resources that overlap with the MG from the L1 measurement resource. For example, the fourth measurement resource may include an L1 measurement resource with portions overlapping with the MG removed.
在一种实施方式中，该目标测量频点包括该终端设备的能力不支持与该L3测量同时测量的L1测量频点。In one implementation, the target measurement frequency point includes an L1 measurement frequency point whose capability of the terminal device does not support simultaneous measurement with the L3 measurement.
在一种实施方式中，该目标测量频点上的第四测量资源与该MTC不完全重叠的情况包括：In one implementation, the situation where the fourth measurement resource on the target measurement frequency point does not completely overlap with the MTC includes:
该第四测量资源与MTC不完全重叠，或者The fourth measurement resource does not completely overlap with the MTC, or
该第四测量资源与MTC内的目标符号不重叠。The fourth measurement resource does not overlap with the target symbols in the MTC.
例如，相同频带(band)中去除MG重叠部分的L1测量资源与MTC不完全重叠，该第六缩放因子为1。再如，相同频带(band)中去除MG重叠部分的L1测量资源与同频MTC内的目标符号不重叠，该第六缩放因子为1。目标符号也可以称为待测符号或者特定符号等。For example, if the L1 measurement resource excluding the MG overlapping part in the same frequency band does not completely overlap with the MTC, the sixth scaling factor is 1. For another example, if the L1 measurement resource excluding the MG overlapping part in the same frequency band does not overlap with the target symbol in the same frequency MTC, the sixth scaling factor is 1. The target symbol may also be called a symbol to be tested or a specific symbol, etc.

For example, the seventh scaling factor is equal to K1+1, or K2+1, etc.
在一种实施方式中，该L3测量包括在MG之外进行的测量。例如，从L3测量资源中去除与MG重叠的资源，根据MG外的资源与L1测量资源的重叠关系再确定L3测量时间。其中，对于L3测量来说，分为需要MG和不需要MG两种类型。如果是需要MG的L3测量对象，只能在MG中进行测量，一般不会受到L1测量的影响。对于不需要MG的L3测量对象，会受到L1测量的影响，需要利用本申请实施例的方式来确定L3测量时间。In one embodiment, the L3 measurements include measurements taken outside the MG. For example, resources that overlap with the MG are removed from the L3 measurement resources, and the L3 measurement time is determined based on the overlapping relationship between the resources outside the MG and the L1 measurement resources. Among them, for L3 measurement, there are two types: those that require MG and those that do not require MG. If it is an L3 measurement object that requires MG, it can only be measured in the MG and will generally not be affected by L1 measurement. For L3 measurement objects that do not require MG, they will be affected by L1 measurement, and the L3 measurement time needs to be determined using the method of the embodiment of the present application.

The main consideration is that UEs that do not support simultaneous L1 and L3 measurements from different satellites are considered. When the serving satellite and the to-be-measured In the case where at least one of the target satellites is not GEO, the measurement time of L1 and L3 needs to be further relaxed (or called amplified). For example, the following time scaling factors can be used to determine the measurement time:

Through different values, simOperationL1andL3 can respectively indicate that L1 measurement and L3 measurement can be performed at the same time, and that L1 measurement and L3 measurement cannot be performed at the same time.

For example, the frequency point is in the same frequency band as the L1 measurement signal (if the L3 measurement signal is in a different frequency band, an MG is required to measure it). If the L3 measurement can be performed simultaneously with the L1 measurement, the L1 measurement time and/or the L3 measurement time determined by the method in the related art can be used. If the L3 measurement cannot be performed simultaneously with the L1 measurement, the method in the embodiment of the present application needs to be used to relax the L1 measurement time and/or the L3 measurement time.
例如，UE的是否支持L1测量和L3测量同时进行的能力指示包括两个独立的能力指示。其中，simOperationL1andL3作为大开关，指示是否能够同时进行L1测量和L3测量。并且，再加一组simOperationL1andL3-band/frequency，指示在特定频带或频点的情况下，这个simOperationL1andL3能力是否有效。For example, the UE's capability indication of whether to support simultaneous L1 measurement and L3 measurement includes two independent capability indications. Among them, simOperationL1andL3 is used as a big switch to indicate whether L1 measurement and L3 measurement can be performed at the same time. Moreover, a group of simOperationL1andL3-band/frequency is added to indicate whether this simOperationL1andL3 capability is effective in a specific frequency band or frequency point.
再如，UE的是否支持L1测量和L3测量同时进行的能力指示分为两种。其中，simOperationL1andL3-band用于指示支持特定频带的L1测量和L3测量同时进行。simOperationL1andL3-frequency用于指示在支持特定频点的L1测量和L3测量同时进行。For another example, the UE's capability indication of whether to support L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time is divided into two types. Among them, simOperationL1andL3-band is used to indicate that L1 measurement and L3 measurement of a specific frequency band are supported at the same time. simOperationL1andL3-frequency is used to indicate that L1 measurement and L3 measurement at a specific frequency point are supported at the same time.

Specifically, the L1 measurement time can be adjusted through a time scaling factor. Among them, the scaling factor needs to consider the impact from L3 measurement on L1 measurement.
可选地，L3测量资源是来自不同于服务卫星的非GEO卫星。Optionally, the L3 measurement resource is from a non-GEO satellite different from the serving satellite.
一种确定缩放因子的方案中，该缩放因子的取值可以基于L1测量资源与MG配置。L1测量资源与L3测量频点上关联到其他目标卫星(不是当前服务卫星)的L3测量的SMTC的重叠关系来确定。详见下述的示例1。可选地，当前服务卫星单独关联到一个SMTC(记为SMTC_s),这个SMTC_s不能关联其他卫星。其他卫星只能关联到不同的SMTC_n。这种情况下，如果去掉MG和SMTC_n重叠的部分还有剩余的L1测量资源，则可以根据总的测量资源与实际可用的L1测量资源的比例来计算缩放因子。如果去掉与MG重叠的部分外，剩下的L1测量资源都与SMTC_n重叠，则需要对MG之外的部分进行L1和L3测量进行分配或分享(sharing)。In a solution for determining the scaling factor, the value of the scaling factor may be based on L1 measurement resources and MG configuration. It is determined by the overlapping relationship between the L1 measurement resource and the L3 measurement SMTC associated with other target satellites (not the current serving satellite) on the L3 measurement frequency point. See Example 1 below for details. Optionally, the current serving satellite is individually associated with an SMTC (denoted as SMTC_s), and this SMTC_s cannot be associated with other satellites. Other satellites can only be associated to different SMTC_n. In this case, if there are remaining L1 measurement resources after removing the overlap between MG and SMTC_n, the scaling factor can be calculated based on the ratio of the total measurement resources to the actual available L1 measurement resources. If the remaining L1 measurement resources overlap with SMTC_n except for the part that overlaps with the MG, L1 and L3 measurements need to be allocated or shared for the parts outside the MG.
在另一种确定缩放因子的方案中，该缩放因子的取值可以基于与MG之外的L1测量资源重叠的SMTC对应的缩放因子K1/K2，以及该SMTC是否关联到服务卫星或者该SMTC的缩放因子是否基于服务卫星来确定。详见下述的示例2。该方案可以不限制卫星和SMTC的关联关系，允许服务卫星和其他卫星(非服务卫星)关联到同一个SMTC。在该方案中，是否要在K1/K2的基础上加上设定值例如1，取决于在计算SMTC的缩放因子K1/K2时是否包含服务卫星。其中K1和K2是根据SMTC所关联的卫星个数、类型、和UE能测量的最大卫星个数来计算出来。可选的，如果存在多个与MG之外的L1测量资源重叠的SMTC，则从多个SMTC对应的K1/K2中选择最大的值作为缩放因子。In another solution for determining the scaling factor, the value of the scaling factor may be based on the scaling factor K1/K2 corresponding to the SMTC that overlaps with the L1 measurement resource outside the MG, and whether the SMTC is associated with the serving satellite or the SMTC. Whether the scaling factor is determined based on the serving satellite. See Example 2 below for details. This solution does not limit the association between satellites and SMTCs, allowing serving satellites and other satellites (non-serving satellites) to associate with the same SMTC. In this solution, whether a set value such as 1 should be added to K1/K2 depends on whether the serving satellite is included in the calculation of the SMTC scaling factor K1/K2. Among them, K1 and K2 are calculated based on the number and type of satellites associated with SMTC, and the maximum number of satellites that the UE can measure. Optionally, if there are multiple SMTCs that overlap with L1 measurement resources outside the MG, select the largest value from K1/K2 corresponding to the multiple SMTCs as the scaling factor.
可选地，以上两种方案中的对应测量频点与UE能力有关。例如，UE上报的无法在L1测量频点进行L1测量的同时在MTC对应的L3测量频点进行L3测量。Optionally, the corresponding measurement frequency points in the above two solutions are related to the UE capabilities. For example, the UE reports that it is unable to perform L1 measurement at the L1 measurement frequency and at the same time perform L3 measurement at the L3 measurement frequency corresponding to the MTC.
可选地，以上两种方案中的对应测量频点可以包括：在与L1测量资源(包括L1测量信号所占用的资源)在相同频带(same band)内的可以在MG之外进行测量的L3测量频点。例如，在相同频带的间隙外基于SSB的测量(SSB based measurement without gap in the same band),可以是该SSB测量可以是同频或异频。如果没有引入相应的UE能力，则可能会在协议中明确是哪些频点。比如相同频带内的L3测量会与L1测量相互影响，不同频带的L3测量可能不会影响。Optionally, the corresponding measurement frequency points in the above two solutions may include: L3 in the same frequency band (same band) as L1 measurement resources (including resources occupied by L1 measurement signals) that can be measured outside the MG. Measure frequency points. For example, SSB based measurement without gap in the same band (SSB based measurement without gap in the same band) can be the same frequency or different frequency. If the corresponding UE capabilities are not introduced, which frequencies may be specified in the protocol. For example, L3 measurements in the same frequency band will interact with L1 measurements, while L3 measurements in different frequency bands may not affect each other.
可选地，以上两种方案中的SMTC可以包括L3测量频点所配置的SMTC，且与L1测量资源(例如L1测量信号)有相互重叠。Optionally, the SMTC in the above two solutions may include the SMTC configured at the L3 measurement frequency point, and overlap with the L1 measurement resource (for example, the L1 measurement signal).
如果L3测量的SMTC与L1测量资源没有重叠，则L3测量时间的缩放因子K不受L1测量资源的影响。If the SMTC for L3 measurement does not overlap with the L1 measurement resource, the scaling factor K of the L3 measurement time is not affected by the L1 measurement resource.
其中，L1测量资源与SMTC或MG重叠的情况，可能包括多种，例如：部分L1测量资源在SMTC/MG窗口内，或者是L1测量资源与SMTC/MG窗口内的待测信号有重叠，或者是L1测量资源与SMTC/MG的距离小于一定的门限值(如4ms)等。Among them, there may be multiple situations where L1 measurement resources overlap with SMTC or MG, for example: some L1 measurement resources are within the SMTC/MG window, or the L1 measurement resources overlap with the signal to be measured within the SMTC/MG window, or The distance between the L1 measurement resource and SMTC/MG is less than a certain threshold (such as 4ms).
在本申请实施例中，提供一种确定UE进行L3测量时间的方法，具体地，可以通过时间缩放因子例如K layer1 measurement来调整L3测量时间。 In this embodiment of the present application, a method for determining the time for the UE to perform L3 measurement is provided. Specifically, the L3 measurement time can be adjusted through a time scaling factor such as K layer1 measurement .
一种方案中，该缩放因子的取值可以基于该L3测量的SMTC与L1测量资源的关系确定。详见下述的示例3。In one solution, the value of the scaling factor may be determined based on the relationship between the L3 measured SMTC and the L1 measurement resource. See Example 3 below for details.
另一种方案中，该缩放因子的取值可以基于该L3测量的SMTC对应的缩放因子K1/K2，以及SMTC与L1测量资源的关系确定(例如，是否在K1/K2的基础上加1)。详见下述的示例4。In another solution, the value of the scaling factor can be determined based on the scaling factor K1/K2 corresponding to the SMTC measured by the L3, and the relationship between the SMTC and the L1 measurement resources (for example, whether to add 1 to K1/K2) . See Example 4 below for details.
如果L3测量与其他L1行为如SRS载波切换(carrier switch)、BWP切换等发生冲突，可以进行以下操作的至少之一：If L3 measurements conflict with other L1 behaviors such as SRS carrier switch (carrier switch), BWP switch, etc., at least one of the following operations can be performed:
(1)L3测量时间拉长，或者(1) L3 measurement time is extended, or
(2)UE会在L1过程之后重新启动L3测量，或者(2) The UE will restart L3 measurement after the L1 procedure, or
(3)根据优先级确定谁先发生。例如BWP切换的优先级更低，则L3测量时间不变。如果BWP切换的优先级更高，则L3测量时间拉长或重新启动。(3) Determine who happens first based on priority. For example, if the BWP handover has a lower priority, the L3 measurement time remains unchanged. If the BWP switch has a higher priority, the L3 measurement time is extended or restarted.
可选地，L3测量时间可以是间隙之外(outside gap)例如MG之外的测量时间。由于L1测量是在MG之外的，通过缩放因子P可以将与MG重叠的测量信号去掉。只有在MG之外的L3测量才需要考虑与L1测量发生冲突的问题。Alternatively, the L3 measurement time may be a measurement time outside a gap, such as outside the MG. Since the L1 measurement is outside the MG, the measurement signal overlapping with the MG can be removed by the scaling factor P. Only L3 measurements outside the MG need to consider conflicts with L1 measurements.
可选地，本申请实施例中的L1测量和L3测量的缩放因子适用于NTN网络。Optionally, the scaling factors of L1 measurement and L3 measurement in the embodiments of this application are applicable to NTN networks.
可选地，本申请实施例中的L1测量和L3测量的缩放因子适用于UE不支持同时进行服务卫星的L1测量和其他卫星的L3测量。换言之，如果UE支持同时进行L1测量和L3测量的能力，不需要该缩放因子，或该缩放因子的取值为1。Optionally, the scaling factors for L1 measurement and L3 measurement in the embodiments of this application are applicable when the UE does not support simultaneous L1 measurement of the serving satellite and L3 measurement of other satellites. In other words, if the UE supports the ability to perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement at the same time, the scaling factor is not required, or the scaling factor has a value of 1.
可选地，本申请实施例中的L1测量和L3测量的缩放因子适用于当前的服务卫星和L3测量的目标卫星至少有一个不是GEO的情况。换言之，在服务卫星和L3测量的目标卫星都是GEO的情况下，不需要该缩放因子，或该缩放因子取值为1。Optionally, the scaling factors for L1 measurement and L3 measurement in the embodiment of the present application are applicable to the situation where at least one of the current serving satellite and the target satellite for L3 measurement is not GEO. In other words, when both the serving satellite and the target satellite for L3 measurement are GEO, the scaling factor is not needed, or the scaling factor takes a value of 1.
示例1Example 1
通过SMTC与卫星的关联关系，将当前的服务卫星唯一地关联到专属SMTC(例如，记作SMTC_s)，将其他待测卫星关联到不同的SMTC窗口(例如，记作SMTC_n，不同的卫星可以关联到同一个SMTC_n，也可以分别关联到SMTC_n1,SMTC_n2等)。其中，如果服务卫星是GEO的类型，SMTC_s也可以关联到其他到的GEO的类型的卫星，但是不能关联到非GEO的类型的卫星。这样可以通过SMTC将不同的卫星区分开来。Through the association relationship between SMTC and satellites, the current serving satellite is uniquely associated with the exclusive SMTC (for example, recorded as SMTC_s), and other satellites under test are associated with different SMTC windows (for example, recorded as SMTC_n). Different satellites can be associated to the same SMTC_n, or can be associated to SMTC_n1, SMTC_n2, etc.). Among them, if the serving satellite is of GEO type, SMTC_s can also be associated with other GEO type satellites, but cannot be associated with non-GEO type satellites. This allows different satellites to be distinguished through SMTC.
在计算L1测量的评估时间时，需要从L1测量资源中去除与其他卫星关联的SMTC_n重叠的部分。其中，与服务小区的SMTC_s重叠的部分不需要排除，UE可以同时对服务小区进行L1测量和L3测量。如果SMTC_n_geo所关联的卫星和服务卫星都是GEO类型的卫星，则该SMTC_n_geo也不需要排除，UE可以同时对多个GEO卫星测量。在本示例中，后续所述的SMTC_n均不包含SMTC_n_geo。如果去掉MG和SMTC_n重叠的部分还有剩余的L1测量资源，则可以根据总的测量资源的与实际可用的L1测量资源比例来计算缩放因子。如果去掉与MG重叠的部分外，剩下的L1测量资源都与SMTC_n重叠，则需要对MG之外的部分对L1和L3测量进行分配或分享(sharing)。When calculating the evaluation time of L1 measurements, the overlapping portions of SMTC_n associated with other satellites need to be removed from the L1 measurement resources. Among them, the overlapping part with the SMTC_s of the serving cell does not need to be excluded, and the UE can perform L1 measurement and L3 measurement on the serving cell at the same time. If the satellites and serving satellites associated with SMTC_n_geo are both GEO type satellites, the SMTC_n_geo does not need to be excluded, and the UE can measure multiple GEO satellites at the same time. In this example, none of the SMTC_n described subsequently include SMTC_n_geo. If there are remaining L1 measurement resources after removing the overlap between MG and SMTC_n, the scaling factor can be calculated based on the ratio of the total measurement resources to the actual available L1 measurement resources. If the remaining L1 measurement resources overlap with SMTC_n except for the part that overlaps with the MG, the L1 and L3 measurements need to be allocated or shared among the parts other than the MG.
对L1和L3测量进行分配或分享的方式的具体示例如下：Specific examples of how L1 and L3 measurements can be assigned or shared are as follows:
方式(Option)1:修改L1测量时间的缩放因子P。具体地，缩放因子P的计算需要去掉与所有MG和SMTC_n重叠的L1测量资源。Method (Option) 1: Modify the scaling factor P of the L1 measurement time. Specifically, the calculation of scaling factor P requires removing L1 measurement resources that overlap with all MGs and SMTC_n.
方式1a:P＝N total_1/N available，其中，N total_1可以表示在时间窗口W内，共计有N total_1个L1测量资源的时机个数，参见图6至图11中长度为W(ms，毫秒)的时间窗口内SSB周期包括的方块的个数。N available可以表示去除与MG和SMTC_n重叠之外的L1测量资源的时机个数，例如图6、图8和图10中W窗口内带有标签O的方块的个数。此外，图7、图9和图11中W窗口内带有标签S的方块可以表示需要分享或分配的L1测量资源的时机。图6至图11中，带有标签X的方块可以表示去除的L1测量资源的时机。 Method 1a: P=N total_1 /N available , where N total_1 can represent the number of opportunities for a total of N total_1 L1 measurement resources within the time window W. See Figure 6 to Figure 11. The length is W (ms, milliseconds) ) The number of blocks included in the SSB cycle within the time window. N available can represent the number of opportunities to remove L1 measurement resources other than overlapping with MG and SMTC_n, such as the number of boxes with label O in the W window in Figure 6, Figure 8 and Figure 10. In addition, the box with the label S in the W window in Figure 7, Figure 9 and Figure 11 can represent the timing of L1 measurement resources that need to be shared or allocated. In Figures 6 to 11, the box with the label X can represent the timing of removing the L1 measurement resource.
可选地，时间窗口W的长度可以是max(L1 SSB period,MGRP,SMTC_n1,SMTC_n2)。其中，L1 SSB period表示L1测量的SSB周期，MGRP表示MG重复周期，SMTC_n1表示关联到非服务卫星的一个SMTC，SMTC_n2表示关联到非服务卫星的另一个SMTC。例如，图6至图11中的时间窗口W的长度可以是80ms。Optionally, the length of the time window W may be max(L1 SSB period, MGRP, SMTC_n1, SMTC_n2). Among them, L1 SSB period represents the SSB period measured by L1, MGRP represents the MG repetition period, SMTC_n1 represents an SMTC associated with a non-serving satellite, and SMTC_n2 represents another SMTC associated with a non-serving satellite. For example, the length of the time window W in Figures 6 to 11 may be 80ms.
下面说明几种特殊情况：Several special situations are described below:
如果N available＝N total_1，则L1测量资源没有与任何SMTC或者MG重叠，P＝1表示不需要放大测量时间，可以采用相关技术中的P，按照现有协议这种情况也是P＝1。 If N available =N total_1 , then the L1 measurement resource does not overlap with any SMTC or MG. P=1 means that there is no need to amplify the measurement time. P in the related technology can be used. According to the existing protocol, this situation is also P=1.
如果N available＝0(如下述的情况2/4/6)，由于分母不能为0，方式1a无法得到计算结果。这种情况下，可以通过网络配置来避免所有L1测量资源都与MG或其他卫星关联的SMTC_n重叠。也就是说，L1测量资源只能在MG和SMTC_n之外，不需要与其他卫星的L3测量做分享(sharing)，不会对L3 测量造成影响。 If N available =0 (as in case 2/4/6 below), the calculation result cannot be obtained in method 1a because the denominator cannot be 0. In this case, network configuration can be used to prevent all L1 measurement resources from overlapping with SMTC_n associated with the MG or other satellites. In other words, the L1 measurement resources can only be outside the MG and SMTC_n, and do not need to be shared with the L3 measurements of other satellites, and will not affect the L3 measurements.
方式1b:P＝P sharing factor*N total_1/N available。其中时间窗口W和N total_1的含义与方式1a相同。为了解决方式1a中N available＝0的情况，第一测量资源N available和分享因子P sharing factor可以按照下面的条件来确定取值。其中N mg表示时间窗口内与MG重叠的L1测量资源的时机个数。这里可以主要计算与MG重叠的L1测量资源的时机个数，可能会包含与MG和SMTC_n同时重叠的情况。N smtc表示时间窗口内与其他卫星关联的SMTC_n重叠但与MG不重叠的L1测量资源的时机个数。 Method 1b: P＝P sharing factor *N total_1 /N available . The time window W and N total_1 have the same meaning as method 1a. In order to solve the situation of N available =0 in mode 1a, the values of the first measurement resource N available and the sharing factor P sharing factor can be determined according to the following conditions. Among them, N mg represents the number of opportunities for L1 measurement resources that overlap with MG in the time window. Here you can mainly calculate the number of opportunities for L1 measurement resources that overlap with the MG, which may include simultaneous overlap with the MG and SMTC_n. N smtc represents the number of opportunities for L1 measurement resources within the time window that overlap with SMTC_n associated with other satellites but do not overlap with MG.
当N total_1–N mg–N smtc>0时，N available＝N total_1–N mg-N smtc>0，P sharing factor＝1。 When N total_1 –N mg –N smtc >0, N available =N total_1 –N mg –N smtc >0, P sharing factor =1.
当N total_1–N mg＝N smtc>0时，N available＝N total_1–N mg。这种情况下，所有的L1测量资源一部分与MG重叠，另一部分MG重叠。只能选择与MG之外与SMTC重叠的部分进行L1测量，可以通过P sharing factor来共享L1和L3测量。这种情况下对L3测量也会有影响。其中，P sharing factor的取值可以采用以下方案的至少之一： When N total_1 –N mg =N smtc >0, N available =N total_1 –N mg . In this case, part of all L1 measurement resources overlaps with the MG and another part overlaps with the MG. Only the part overlapping with SMTC outside the MG can be selected for L1 measurement, and L1 and L3 measurements can be shared through P sharing factor . In this case, it will also have an impact on L3 measurement. Among them, the value of P sharing factor can adopt at least one of the following solutions:
(1)P sharing factor＝[3]。P sharing factor取值可以固定为一个大于1的数，例如3；或者 (1)P sharing factor =[3]. The value of P sharing factor can be fixed to a number greater than 1, such as 3; or
(2)分情况讨论：当L1测量资源与L3测量SSB符号和RSSI符号都不重叠时，P sharing factor＝1；否则采用方案(1)例如P sharing factor＝[3]；或者 (2) Discuss on a case-by-case basis: When the L1 measurement resources and L3 measurement SSB symbols and RSSI symbols do not overlap, P sharing factor = 1; otherwise, adopt solution (1) such as P sharing factor = [3]; or
(3)P sharing factor的取值可以基于下述示例2中的缩放因子K1/K2来确定。 (3) The value of P sharing factor can be determined based on the scaling factor K1/K2 in Example 2 below.
N total_1–N mg＝0可以看做是配置错误，表示L1测量资源全部都与MG重叠的情况。 N total_1 –N mg =0 can be regarded as a configuration error, indicating that all L1 measurement resources overlap with the MG.
方式1c:以一个MG和一个邻小区SMTC_n的情况为例进行说明，大部分可以重用FR2的结论。但如果有多个SMTC_n的话会更加复杂，需要划分出很多情况给才能确定公式，没有方式1b简单通用。具体分为以下几种情况Method 1c: Take the case of one MG and one neighboring cell SMTC_n as an example. Most of the conclusions of FR2 can be reused. But if there are multiple SMTC_n, it will be more complicated. Many situations need to be divided to determine the formula. There is no simple and universal method 1b. Specifically divided into the following situations
情况(Case)1:参见图6，当L1测量资源与MG不重叠，与所有SMTC_n部分重叠(T SSB<T SMTCperiod)时，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000006
Case (Case) 1: Refer to Figure 6, when the L1 measurement resource does not overlap with the MG and partially overlaps with all SMTC_n (T SSB <T SMTCperiod ),
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000006
情况2:参见图7，当L1测量资源与MG不重叠，与SMTC_n完全重叠(T SSB＝T SMTCperiod)时，P is P sharing factor。当L1测量资源都与SMTC重叠时，需要在L1测量和L3测量做分享或分配。因此会对L3测量造成影响。下述的情况4和6也是类似的。 Case 2: Referring to Figure 7, when the L1 measurement resource does not overlap with the MG and completely overlaps with SMTC_n (T SSB = T SMTCperiod ), P is P sharing factor . When L1 measurement resources overlap with SMTC, they need to be shared or allocated between L1 measurement and L3 measurement. Therefore, it will affect L3 measurement. Cases 4 and 6 described below are also similar.
情况3:当L1测量资源与MG部分重叠，与SMTC_n也部分重叠，且SMTC_n与MG不重叠，并且T SMTCperiod≠MGRP或T SMTCperiod＝MGRP and T SSB<0.5*T SMTCperiod时，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000007
如图8中，SSB的一部分时机与MG重叠，另一部分时机与SMTC_n重叠，还剩下一部分时机在MG和SMTC之外。 Case 3: When the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with MG, partially overlaps with SMTC_n, and SMTC_n does not overlap with MG, and T SMTCperiod ≠MGRP or T SMTCperiod =MGRP and T SSB <0.5*T SMTCperiod ,
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000007
As shown in Figure 8, part of the SSB timing overlaps with the MG, another part of the timing overlaps with SMTC_n, and the remaining part of the timing is outside the MG and SMTC.
情况4:参见图9，当L1测量资源与MG部分重叠，与所有SMTC_n也部分重叠，SMTC与MG不重叠，并且T SMTCperiod＝MGRP and T SSB＝0.5×T SMTCperiod时，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000008
如图9所示，标记S的L1资源需要和L3测量SMTC共享。 Case 4: Referring to Figure 9, when the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with MG, partially overlaps with all SMTC_n, SMTC does not overlap with MG, and T SMTCperiod =MGRP and T SSB =0.5×T SMTCperiod ,
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000008
As shown in Figure 9, the L1 resource marked S needs to be shared with the L3 measurement SMTC.
情况5:参见图10，当L1测量资源与MG部分重叠，与SMTC_n也部分重叠(T SSB<T SMTCperiod)，SMTC与MG部分或完全重叠时，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000009
Case 5: Referring to Figure 10, when the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with the MG and also partially overlaps with SMTC_n (T SSB <T SMTCperiod ), and the SMTC partially or completely overlaps with the MG,
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000009
情况6:参见图11，当L1测量资源与MG部分重叠，与SMTC_n完全重叠(T SSB＝T SMTCperiod)，SMTC的一部分与MG重叠(T SMTCperiod<MGRP)时，
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000010
Case 6: Referring to Figure 11, when the L1 measurement resource partially overlaps with MG, completely overlaps with SMTC_n (T SSB = T SMTCperiod ), and part of SMTC overlaps with MG (T SMTCperiod <MGRP),
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000010
此外，P sharing factor的取值也可以重用相关技术或者是方式1b的方案。 In addition, the value of P sharing factor can also reuse related technologies or the solution of method 1b.
方式2:引入新的缩放因子K sat(即第二缩放因子的示例，缩放因子的名称可以有所不同，在此不做限制)，缩放因子P的计算方式可以保持不变(例如只排除与MG重叠的部分)。最终的L1测量时间需要在仅通过缩放因子P计算得到的L1测量时间的基础上再乘以K sat。例如L1测量时间的计算公式可以修改为，Max(200,Ceil(10×P×K sat)×[K]×T SSB)或者Max(200,Ceil(10×P)×K sat×[K]×T SSB)。K sat的计算方式与方式1b的思路类似，区别在于只考虑L1测量资源的时机与SMTC_n重叠的部分，而不需要重复考虑与MG重叠的部分。该方式中，K与K sat不同，K可以表示根据不同的卫星类型来放松或加快L1测量评估时间的缩放因子。 Method 2: Introduce a new scaling factor K sat (that is, an example of the second scaling factor, the name of the scaling factor can be different, there is no restriction here), and the calculation method of the scaling factor P can remain unchanged (for example, only exclude MG overlap). The final L1 measurement time needs to be multiplied by K sat based on the L1 measurement time calculated only by the scaling factor P. For example, the calculation formula of L1 measurement time can be modified as: Max(200,Ceil(10×P×K sat )×[K]×T SSB ) or Max(200,Ceil(10×P)×K sat ×[K] ×T SSB ). The calculation method of K sat is similar to the idea of method 1b. The difference is that only the part where the timing of the L1 measurement resource overlaps with SMTC_n is considered, and there is no need to repeatedly consider the part that overlaps with the MG. In this method, K is different from K sat , and K can represent a scaling factor to relax or speed up the L1 measurement evaluation time according to different satellite types.
方式2b:K sat＝P sharing factor*N total_2/N available。其中时间窗口W与方式1a的含义相同，N total_2的含义如下 Method 2b: K sat =P sharing factor *N total_2 /N available . The time window W has the same meaning as method 1a, and the meaning of N total_2 is as follows
一种方案N total_2表示窗口W内所有可用L1测量资源的时机个数，无论是否与MG重叠。 One solution, N total_2, represents the number of opportunities for all available L1 measurement resources within the window W, regardless of whether it overlaps with the MG.
另一种方案是N total_2表示窗口W内去掉与MG重叠部分之外的可用L1测量资源的时机个数(相当于方式1b中的N total_1–N mg)。 Another solution is that N total_2 represents the number of opportunities within the window W excluding the available L1 measurement resources that overlap with the MG (equivalent to N total_1 –N mg in method 1b).
N available和P sharing factor按照下面条件来确定取值。 N available and P sharing factor determine their values according to the following conditions.
当N total_2的L1测量资源的时机只有其中一部分与SMTC_n重叠，N available为去掉与SMTC重叠部分的可用L1测量资源的时机的个数，P sharing factor＝1。 When only part of the N total_2 L1 measurement resource opportunities overlaps with SMTC_n, N available is the number of available L1 measurement resource opportunities excluding the overlapping portion with SMTC, and P sharing factor =1.
当N total_2的L1测量资源的时机全部都与SMTC_n重叠，N available的取值为N total_2(可以防止N available＝0)，则K sat＝P sharing factor。 When all the timings of L1 measurement resources of N total_2 overlap with SMTC_n, and the value of N available is N total_2 (which can prevent N available=0 ), then K sat =P sharing factor .
其中，P sharing factor的确定方式可以采用一下至少之一： Among them, P sharing factor can be determined in at least one of the following ways:
(1)P sharing factor＝[3]。固定一个大于1的数； (1)P sharing factor =[3]. Fixed a number greater than 1;
(2)分情况讨论，当L1测量资源与L3测量SSB符号和RSSI符号都不重叠时，P sharing factor＝1；否则P sharing factor＝[3]； (2) Discuss on a case-by-case basis. When the L1 measurement resources and L3 measurement SSB symbols and RSSI symbols do not overlap, P sharing factor = 1; otherwise, P sharing factor = [3];
(3)P sharing factor的取值可以基于下述示例2中的缩放因子K1/K2来确定。 (3) The value of P sharing factor can be determined based on the scaling factor K1/K2 in Example 2 below.
示例2Example 2
该示例不需要限制服务卫星与SMTC的关联关系，也不用于区分SMTC_s和SMTC_n。This example does not need to limit the association between serving satellites and SMTCs, nor is it used to distinguish SMTC_s and SMTC_n.
引入新的缩放因子K sat(即第三缩放因子的示例，缩放因子的名称可以有所不同，在此不做限制)，缩放因子P的计算方式可以保持不变(例如只排除与MG重叠的部分)。最终的L1测量时间需要在仅通过缩放因子B计算得到的L1测量时间的基础上再乘以K sat。例如L1测量时间的计算公式可以修改为，Max(200,Ceil(10×P×K sat)×[K]×T SSB)或者Max(200,Ceil(10×P)×K sat×[K]×T SSB)。其中K sat的取值与多个SMTC的缩放因子K1和K2有关。例如，K sat的取值为与MG之外的L1测量资源重叠的多个SMTC的缩放因子中的最大值，或最大值乘以设定值，公式示例为：K sat＝max(K_smtc_i)×Kc。 Introducing a new scaling factor K sat (that is, an example of the third scaling factor, the name of the scaling factor can be different, there is no restriction here), the calculation method of the scaling factor P can remain the same (for example, only excluding the scaling factor that overlaps with MG part). The final L1 measurement time needs to be multiplied by K sat based on the L1 measurement time calculated only by the scaling factor B. For example, the calculation formula of L1 measurement time can be modified as: Max(200,Ceil(10×P×K sat )×[K]×T SSB ) or Max(200,Ceil(10×P)×K sat ×[K] ×T SSB ). The value of K sat is related to the scaling factors K1 and K2 of multiple SMTCs. For example, the value of K sat is the maximum value among the scaling factors of multiple SMTCs that overlap with L1 measurement resources outside the MG, or the maximum value multiplied by the set value. The formula example is: K sat =max(K_smtc_i)× Kc.
其中，如果SMTC关联到服务卫星或者在计算K1和K2的过程中已经包含了服务卫星，K_smtc_i的取值等于K1或者K2。例如，SMTC1没有关联服务卫星，SMTC2关联服务卫星，且SMTC1和SMTC2有重叠，则在计算SMTC1的缩放因子K1和K2的过程中已经考虑的SMTC2中关联的服务卫星了，因此K_smtc_i的取值不需要加上设定值。Among them, if SMTC is associated with the serving satellite or the serving satellite has been included in the calculation of K1 and K2, the value of K_smtc_i is equal to K1 or K2. For example, SMTC1 is not associated with a serving satellite, SMTC2 is associated with a serving satellite, and SMTC1 and SMTC2 overlap, then the associated serving satellites in SMTC2 have been considered in the process of calculating the scaling factors K1 and K2 of SMTC1, so the value of K_smtc_i is not the same. Need to add setting value.
对于计算K1和K2的过程中不包含服务卫星的SMTC来说，K_smtc的取值可以等于K1加上设定值或者K2加上设定值。例如，K1+1或者K2+1。For SMTCs that do not include serving satellites in the calculation of K1 and K2, the value of K_smtc can be equal to K1 plus the set value or K2 plus the set value. For example, K1+1 or K2+1.
可选地，该示例中的SMTC可以包括对应L3测量频点上与L1测量资源有重叠的SMTC，完全没有重叠的SMTC不需要考虑。Optionally, the SMTCs in this example may include SMTCs that overlap with L1 measurement resources on the corresponding L3 measurement frequency points. SMTCs that have no overlap at all do not need to be considered.
可选地，该示例中的SMTC可以包括对应频点上与MG之外的L1测量资源有重叠的SMTC。Optionally, the SMTC in this example may include an SMTC that overlaps with L1 measurement resources outside the MG on the corresponding frequency point.
可选地，Kc可以是固定的系数。例如Kc＝1；或Kc＝2。Alternatively, Kc can be a fixed coefficient. For example, Kc=1; or Kc=2.
可选地，本申请实施例适用于所有L1测量资源(包括L1测量信号)都与SMTC重叠的情况。Optionally, the embodiment of the present application is applicable to the situation where all L1 measurement resources (including L1 measurement signals) overlap with SMTC.
例如，L1测量资源SSB和对应的同频SSB L3测量的关系如图12所示，SMTC_1和SMTC_2没有重叠。UE在一个SMTC内只能测量一个LEO卫星。SMTC_1关联到N1个LEO卫星(包含服务卫星)，对应的参数(缩放因子)K1_smtc1＝N1,SMTC_2关联到N2个卫星(不包含服务卫星)，对应的参数(缩放因子)K1_smtc2＝N2+1。L1测量的缩放因子的计算方式可以为：K sat＝max(K1_smtc1，K1_smtc2)＝max(N1,N2+1)。 For example, the relationship between the L1 measurement resource SSB and the corresponding co-frequency SSB L3 measurement is shown in Figure 12. There is no overlap between SMTC_1 and SMTC_2. The UE can only measure one LEO satellite within one SMTC. SMTC_1 is associated with N1 LEO satellites (including service satellites), and the corresponding parameter (scaling factor) K1_smtc1=N1. SMTC_2 is associated with N2 satellites (excluding service satellites), and the corresponding parameter (scaling factor) K1_smtc2=N2+1. The scaling factor of L1 measurement can be calculated as: K sat =max(K1_smtc1, K1_smtc2)=max(N1, N2+1).
如果服务卫星是GEO，SMTC_1对应的缩放因子也都是GEO(K1＝1，或K2＝关联到GEO卫星的SMTC个数，但没有LEO的SMTC)，则也不需要加1.全都是GEO的情况下才不需要。If the serving satellite is GEO, and the scaling factors corresponding to SMTC_1 are also GEO (K1=1, or K2=the number of SMTCs associated with GEO satellites, but there is no SMTC for LEO), there is no need to add 1. They are all GEO. It's not necessary under certain circumstances.
但如果服务卫星是LEO，SMTC_1对应的缩放因子也都是GEO(K1＝1，或K2＝关联到GEO卫星的SMTC个数，但没有LEO的SMTC)，则需要加1.But if the serving satellite is LEO, and the scaling factors corresponding to SMTC_1 are also GEO (K1=1, or K2=the number of SMTCs associated with GEO satellites, but there are no LEO SMTCs), you need to add 1.
下面介绍计算K1和K2的示例性方法：An exemplary method for calculating K1 and K2 is introduced below:
当UE在同一测量载波上配置了多个SMTC时(所配置的SMTC个数不超过UE能力)，如果每个SMTC与相同类型的卫星相关：When the UE is configured with multiple SMTCs on the same measurement carrier (the number of configured SMTCs does not exceed the UE capability), if each SMTC is related to the same type of satellite:
(1)如果SMTC彼此不重叠，则测量周期的缩放因子为：如果要求在SMTC内测量低轨卫星，SMTC i上测量周期的缩放因子为K1：
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000011
(1) If the SMTCs do not overlap each other, the scaling factor of the measurement period is: If it is required to measure low-orbit satellites within the SMTC, the scaling factor of the measurement period on SMTC i is K1:
Figure PCTCN2022088857-appb-000011
如果要求在SMTC内要测量GEO，则缩放因子K1＝1。If GEO is required to be measured within the SMTC, the scaling factor K1=1.
(2)如果SMTC不完全重叠，则测量周期的比例因子为：如果要求在重叠SMTC内测量LEO和/或GEO卫星，重叠SMTC测量周期的比例因子为K2：(2) If the SMTCs are not completely overlapping, the scaling factor of the measurement period is: If it is required to measure LEO and/or GEO satellites within the overlapping SMTC, the scaling factor of the overlapping SMTC measurement period is K2:

示例3Example 3
对于不能服务卫星的L1同时测量的待测目标卫星(例如服务卫星和待测目标卫星不全是GEO类型，或者不是同一个LEO卫星)，如果所配置的L3测量资源与服务卫星的L1测量资源在时域上冲突， 需要对L3测量时间做进一步放松。其他情况下对L3测量时间没有影响。该示例中计算L3测量时间的方式可以参考FR2的L3测量，引入缩放因子K layer1 measurement，具体的确定方式如下： For the target satellite to be measured that cannot measure the L1 of the serving satellite at the same time (for example, the serving satellite and the target satellite to be measured are not all GEO types, or they are not the same LEO satellite), if the configured L3 measurement resource and the L1 measurement resource of the serving satellite are in There is a conflict in the time domain, and the L3 measurement time needs to be further relaxed. In other cases, there is no impact on L3 measurement time. The method of calculating the L3 measurement time in this example can refer to the L3 measurement of FR2 and introduce the scaling factor K layer1 measurement . The specific determination method is as follows:
方式1：相同频带(band)的MG之外的所有L1测量资源与该L3测量关联的SMTC不是完全重叠，K layer1 measurement＝1(不需要放大周期)。具体的，可以分为以下情况： Method 1: All L1 measurement resources other than the MG in the same frequency band (band) do not completely overlap with the SMTC associated with the L3 measurement, and K layer1 measurement =1 (no amplification period is required). Specifically, it can be divided into the following situations:
(1)相同频带(band)的MG之外的所有L1测量资源与该L3测量关联的SMTC不是完全重叠，或者(1) All L1 measurement resources other than the MG in the same frequency band do not completely overlap with the SMTC associated with the L3 measurement, or
(2)相同频带(band)的MG之外的所有L1测量资源与该L3测量关联的SMTC内的待测符号不重叠。(2) All L1 measurement resources other than the MG in the same frequency band (band) do not overlap with the symbols to be measured in the SMTC associated with the L3 measurement.
其中，待测符号可以包括：SSB符号、RSSI测量符号，以及SSB符号和RSSI符号之前和之后各M个符号，M可以为大于或等于1的整数。The symbols to be measured may include: SSB symbols, RSSI measurement symbols, and M symbols before and after the SSB symbols and RSSI symbols, and M may be an integer greater than or equal to 1.
其中，SSB符号可以是通过SSB-ToMeasure来配置的。RSSI符号可以是通过SS-RSSI-Measurement来配置的。Among them, the SSB symbol can be configured through SSB-ToMeasure. RSSI symbols can be configured through SS-RSSI-Measurement.
方式2：L1测量资源与SMTC完全重叠，K layer1 measurement>1，例如1.5，或者3。 Method 2: L1 measurement resources completely overlap with SMTC, K layer1 measurement >1, such as 1.5, or 3.
示例4Example 4
该示例中可以对L3测量时间做进一步放松。当L3测量的SMTC都与L1测量资源重叠时，且在计算该SMTC的缩放因子K1/K2时不包含服务卫星，则可以在基于示例2的公式计算得到的缩放因子K1/K2的基础上再加上设定值，例如加1。The L3 measurement time can be further relaxed in this example. When the SMTC measured by L3 overlaps with the L1 measurement resource, and the serving satellite is not included in the calculation of the scaling factor K1/K2 of the SMTC, the scaling factor K1/K2 calculated based on the formula in Example 2 can be used. Add the set value, for example add 1.
