下面将结合附图，对本申请中的技术方案进行描述。

而如上介绍的各种终端设备，如果位于车辆上(例如放置在车辆内或安装在车辆内)，都可以认为是车载终端设备，车载终端设备例如也称为车载单元(on-board unit，OBU)。
本申请实施例中，终端设备还可以包括中继(relay)。或者理解为，能够与基站进行数据通信的都可以看作终端设备。
本申请实施例中的接入网设备可以是用于与终端设备通信的设备，可以是基站，或者接入点，或者网络设备，或者可以是指接入网中在空中接口上通过一个或多个扇区与无线终端通信的设备。。例如，接入网设备可以是全球移动通讯(Global System of Mobile communication，GSM)或码分多址(Code Division Multiple Access，CDMA)中的基站(Base Transceiver Station，BTS)，也可以是宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access，WCDMA)中的基站(NodeB，NB)，也可以是LTE***中的演进型基站(evolved NodeB，eNB或eNodeB)，也可以是新空口(new radio，NR)***中的gNB，也可以是传输接收点(transmission reception point，TRP)，还可以是云无线接入网络(cloud radio access network，CRAN)场景下的无线控制器，或者该接入设备可以为中继站、接入点、车载设备、可穿戴设备以及5G网络中的接入设备或者未来演进的PLMN网络中的网络设备等，本申请实施例并不限定。
接入网设备为小区提供服务，终端设备通过该小区使用的传输资源(例如，频域资源，或者说，频谱资源)与接入网设备进行通信，该小区可以是接入网设备(例如基站)对应的小区，小区可以属于宏基站，也可以属于小小区(small cell)对应的基站，这里的小小区可以包括：城市小区(metro cell)、微小区(micro cell)、微微小区(pico cell)、毫微微小区(femto cell)等，这些小小区具有覆盖范围小、发射功率低的特点，适用于提供高速率的数据传输服务。
另外，在一种网络结构中，接入网设备可以包括集中单元(centralized unit，CU)节点、或分布单元(distributed unit，DU)节点。CU和DU可以在逻辑上分离，也可以分开部署。其中，包括CU节点和DU节点的接入网设备将长期演进(long term evolution，LTE)***中eNB的协议层拆分开，部分协议层的功能放在CU集中控制，剩下部分或全部协议层的功能分布在DU中，由CU集中控制DU。
为了能够清楚地理解本申请实施例，首先对本申请中涉及的部分技术进行介绍。
流类业务是一种实时性的单向传输的业务，典型的流类业务是人们在网络上欣赏音频或者视频节目。由于流类业务没有实时交互的需求，并且本地通常设有缓存来保持一定时间的业务连续，所以该 类业务对时延参数并没有会话类业务敏感。
对于一些流类业务或者语音业务而言，如流服务(streaming service)，互联网协议多媒体***的多媒体电话(multimedia telephony service for ip multimedia subsystem，MTSI)服务,单纯的信号质量并不能体现用户在使用这些业务时的用户体验，运营商想知道用户的体验感如何，从而更好的优化网络以提高用户的体验。这类测量收集称为体验质量(quality of experience，QoE)测量收集，也可称为应用层测量收集。
单播(unicast)业务是指接入网设备从核心网收到业务数据包是针对某个特定终端设备的。接入网设备把这些数据包发送给该特定的终端设备。单播业务是通过单播会话传输给终端设备的。
多播业务是指相同的业务和相同的内容数据是同时提供给一些终端设备的，这些终端设备可以组成一个终端设备组。例如，核心网提供的一份数据是针对多个终端设备的。多播业务是通过多播会话(multicast session)传输给终端设备的。对于多播业务，接入网设备可以配置点到点(point to point，PTP)传输/和点到多点(point to multipoint，PTM)传输。
PTP传输是指接入网设备把多播业务对应的数据拷贝并独立地发送给每个终端设备，且通过采用各个终端设备对应的各自的小区无线网络临时标识(cell radio network temporary identifier，C-RNTI)加扰的下行控制物理信道(physical downlink control channel，PDCCH)来调度终端设备来接收这些数据。不同的终端设备通过不同的PDCCH所指示的下行共享物理信道(physical downlink shared channel，PDSCH)来接收数据。
PTM传输是指接入网设备把多播业务对应的数据一块发送对应的所有终端设备，且通过采用各个终端设备对应的组公共RNTI(group-common RNTI)加扰的PDCCH来调度这些终端设备来接收这些数据(这些终端设备都通过同一个PDCCH所指示的PDSCH来接收数据)。接入网设备还可以同时为某个多播业务配置PTP传输和PTM传输，由接入网设备决定某个数据是采用PTP传输，还是PTM传输。
多播业务可以是组播广播业务(multicast broadcast service，MBS)中的多播(multicast)业务，也可以是其他多播业务，本申请对此并不进行限定。
目前，还未实现针对多播业务的QoE测量，因此，针对多播业务，网络侧如接入网设备或者操作、管理和维护(operation,administration and maintenance，OAM)设备不知道用户的体验如何，无法根据用户的体验来优化网络，进而有可能造成多播业务的质量不稳定，通信质量不高等问题。
本申请提出了一种测量配置的方法，实现了对多播业务的QoE测量，以便于网络侧如接入网设备或者OAM根据多播业务的QoE测量结果来优化网络，提升多播业务的通信质量。
下面对本申请的一种应用场景进行介绍。
图1示出了本申请所应用的一种网络架构示意图。在图1中包括核心网设备110、第一接入网设备120、第二接入网设备130和终端设备140。其中，第一接入网设备120和第二接入网设备130例如工作在NR***中，或者工作在其他下一代通信***或其他通信***中，第一接入网设备120和第二接入网设备130分别于终端设备140之间可以通过Uu接口通信。在本申请实施例中，一个接入网设备可以服务于多个终端设备，图1只是以其中的一个终端设备为例。
图1中的接入网设备例如为基站。其中，接入网设备在不同的***对应不同的设备，例如在4G***中可以对应eNB，在NR***中对应gNB。本申请实施例所提供的技术方案也可以应用于未来的移动通信***中，因此图1中的接入网设备也可以对应未来的移动通信***中的接入网设备。图1以接入网设备是基站为例，实际上参考前文的介绍，接入网设备还可以是RSU等设备。
图1中的核心网设备，是指为终端提供业务支持的核心网(core network，CN)中的设备。核心网设备例如为：接入和移动性管理功能(access and mobility management function，AMF)实体、会话管理功能(session management function，SMF)实体、用户面功能(user plane function，UPF)实体、策略控制功能(policy control function，PCF)等等，此处不一一列举。其中，AMF实体可以负责终端的接入管理和移动性管理；SMF实体可以负责会话管理，如用户的会话建立等；UPF实体可以是用户面的功能实体，主要负责连接外部网络。需要说明的是，本申请中实体也可以称为网元或功能实体。还应理解，上述核心网的实体可以独立工作，也可以组合在一起实现某些控制功能，如：AMF、SMF和PCF可以组合在一起作为一个管理设备。
在图1中，终端设备140在接入第一接入网设备120后可以切换到第二接入网设备230，这个过程称为小区切换(handover)。在小区切换过程中，第一接入网设备120使用无线资源管理(Radio Resource Management，RRM)测量配置以及根据终端设备240的反馈来配置终端设备140。RRM测量结果满足一定条件，将触发测量报告。第一接入网设备120在接收到终端设备140的测量报告后，可以向终端设备140发送一个切换命令，指示终端设备140将从第一接入网设备120切换到第二接入网设备130。在RRC连接态(connected态)，终端设备140和第一接入网设备120之间存在RRC连接，第一接入网设备120通过RRC信令配置终端进行同频、异频和/或异***邻区测量。终端设备140将测量结果通过RRC信令上报第一接入网设备120，第一接入网设备120再根据测量结果将终端设备140切换到信号质量更好的第二接入网设备130上。
应理解，图1所示的通信***中还可以包括更多的通信设备，例如其他终端设备或接入网设备，图1所示的通信***中包括的接入网设备或者终端设备可以是上述各种形式的接入网设备或者终端设备。本申请实施例在图中不再一一示出。
在本申请实施例中，以接入网设备、终端设备作为执行方法的执行主体为例，对方法进行说明。作为示例而非限定，执行方法的执行主体也可以是应用于终端设备、接入网设备的芯片、芯片***、或处理器等。
图2是本申请的一种测量配置的方法200的示意性流程图。该方法200可以应用上述应用场景中，当然也可以应用在其他通信场景中，本申请在此不作限制。
如图2所示，图2中示出的方法200可以包括S201至S209。下面结合图2详细说明方法200中的各个步骤。
S201，CN或OAM设备向第一接入网设备发送多播业务的QoE测量配置信息和第一信息。第一信息包括第一指示信息，第一指示信息用于指示终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收单播业务时使用多播业务的QoE测量配置信息。第一信息与单播业务的QoE测量相关，多播业务对应单播业务，其中，多播业务对应单播业务是指该多播业务和单播业务为同一个数据业务，接入网设备向终端设备发送该数据业务的数据时采用了单播或多播的方式。第一接入网设备支持多播业务。
相应地，第一接入网设备接收多播业务的QoE测量配置信息和第一信息。
需要说明的是，第一指示信息用于指示终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收单播业务时使用多播业务的QoE测量配置信息是指当终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收该多播业务对应的单播业务时，终端设备继续使用多播业务的QoE测量配置信息进行应用层测量。
应理解，多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中包括多播业务的应用层测量配置。表1为多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的示例。
表1 QoE测量配置信息
应理解，表1只示出了多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的部分元素，多播业务的QoE测量配置信息还包括其他元素，如QoE测量收集的范围等元素，具体可以参考单播业务的QoE测量配置信息，此处 不再描述。
QoE测量配置信息中还包括QoE参考(reference)和测量收集实体(measurement collection entity，MCE)的IP地址，MCE是用于收集应用层测量结果的。其中，QoE reference是用于标识网络请求的QoE测量(或用于在接入网设备和测量收集实体标识QoE测量收集任务)，QoE reference可以称为QoE测量标识。QoE reference是一个全局唯一的标识。例如，QoE reference是由公共陆地移动网(Public land mobile network，PLMN)和QoE测量收集标识构成，其中，PLMN由移动国家码(mobile country code，MCC)和移动网络码(mobile network code，MNC)标识，QoE测量收集标识是由管理***或运营商分配的。
MCE的IP地址是用于接入网设备在收到终端设备上报的应用层测量结果之后，接入网设备把应用层测量结果发送给MCE。
QoE测量配置信息中包括一个容器(container)，该container中包含了应用层测量配置，该container也可称为应用层测量配置容器。CN通知的是针对某个特定终端设备的QoE测量配置信息，比如通过第一接入网设备与CN之间针对第一终端设备的接口消息发送该QoE测量配置信息。
对于这种以container形式携带的应用层测量配置，也可以称为接入网设备不可见的应用层测量配置。Container中包括了应用层测量量。
应用层测量量可以是以下参数中的一个或多个：
平均吞吐量、初始播放时延、缓冲级别、播放时延、恶化持续时间、连续的丢包数、抖动持续时间、失步持续时间、往返时延、平均码率和卡顿情况。
多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中包括多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。例如该标识为QoE参考。
在一个实施方式中，第一信息还包括多播业务的业务类型和单播业务的业务类型。
具体而言，如果多播业务的业务类型是一个新定义的业务类型，即和现有单播业务的业务类型(比如流服务,虚拟现实(virtual reality，VR)服务，互联网协议多媒体***的多媒体电话服务(Multimedia Telephony Service for IP multimedia subsystem，MTSI)等)不同，则CN或OAM向第一接入网设备发送的多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中还包括多播业务的业务类型和单播业务的业务类型。多播业务的业务类型对应单播业务的业务类型，例如，多播业务的业务类型A对应于单播业务的业务类型B。
在一个实施方式中，第一信息也可以包括多播业务的业务类型的索引信息和单播业务的业务类型的索引信息。
具体而言，第一信息可以不直接包括多播业务的业务类型和单播业务的业务类型，而是包括多播业务的业务类型的索引信息和单播业务的业务类型的索引信息，这样可以节省信令开销。例如，多播业务的业务类型的索引信息为1，单播业务的业务类型的索引信息为2，索引信息与业务类型之间存在对应关系，第一接入网设备可以根据索引信息1确定多播业务的业务类型，第一接入网设备可以根据索引信息2确定单播业务的业务类型。
在一个实施方式中，多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中还包括多播业务的会话(session)标识(identifier，ID)，多播业务的会话标识用于标识对哪些多播会话进行应用层测量。在另一个实施方式中，当多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中没有包括多播业务的会话标识时，可以默认对所有的多播业务的会话都进行QoE测量。
示例性的，多播session ID包括临时移动组标识(temporary mobile group identity，TMGI)，TMGI用于唯一标识MBS业务。多播session ID还可以包括网络标识(network identifier，NID)，NID用于标识一个独立的非公共网络。
在一个实施方式中，多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中的应用层测量配置可以以container的形式发送给第一接入网设备的，也可以以一种接入网设备能感知的形式发送给第一接入网设备的，如以信息元素的形式向第一接入网设备发送。
示例性的，多播session ID可以包含在应用层测量配置容器之中，也可以包含在应用层测量配置容器之外，也可以同时包含应用层测量配置容器之中和在应用层测量配置容器之外。
在一个实施方式中，第一信息也可以包括在多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中。
S202，第一接入网设备根据多播业务的QoE测量配置信息和第一信息，确定多播业务的应用层测 量配置信息，第一接入网设备向终端设备发送多播业务的应用层测量配置信息。
相应地，终端设备接收来自于第一接入网设备的多播业务的应用层测量配置信息。
在一个实施方式中，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息包括第二指示信息，第二指示信息用于指示终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收单播业务时使用多播业务的应用层测量配置信息。需要说明的是，第二指示信息用于指示终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收单播业务时使用多播业务的应用层测量配置信息是指当终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收该多播业务对应单播业务时，终端设备继续使用多播业务的应用层测量配置信息进行应用层测量。
示例性的，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息还包括多播业务的应用层测量标识和/或单播业务的应用层测量标识，应用层测量标识用于指示终端设备的一个应用层测量任务。一种实施方式中，如果多播业务的应用层测量标识与单播业务的应用层测量标识相同，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息可以包括一个应用层测量标识，可以是多播业务的应用层测量标识或单播业务的应用层测量标识，另一种实施方式中，如果多播业务的应用层测量标识与单播业务的应用层测量标识不相同，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息可以包括两个应用层测量标识，即多播业务的应用层测量标识和单播业务的应用层测量标识。
同一个终端设备的不同的应用层测量任务对应的应用层测量标识不同。不同的终端设备的应用层测量对应的应用层测量标识可能相同，也可能不同。
应用层测量标识是第一接入网设备为终端设备生成的，应用层测量标识对应第一接入网设备为终端设备配置的一个应用层测量配置信息。一般而言，应用层测量标识是和QoE reference对应的。第一接入网设备保存了应用层测量标识和QoE reference的对应关系。
在一个实施方式中，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息还包括多播业务的业务类型和单播业务的业务类型。
具体而言，如果多播业务的业务类型是一个新定义的业务类型，即和现有单播业务的业务类型不同，则多播业务的应用层测量配置信息中还包括多播业务的业务类型的索引信息和单播业务的业务类型的索引信息，即多播业务的应用层测量配置信息中包括了多播业务的业务类型与单播业务的业务类型的对应关系，例如，多播业务的业务类型A对应于单播业务的业务类型B。在另一个实施方式中，如果多播业务的业务类型不是一个新定义的业务类型，即和单播业务的业务类型相同，则多播业务的应用层测量配置信息只需包括一个业务类型。
示例性的，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息还包括多播业务的会话标识。
第一接入网设备可以通过RRC消息向终端设备发送多播业务的应用层测量配置信息，RRC消息中也携带多播业务的应用层测量配置信息对应的业务类型。
应用层测量配置可以是以一种container形式发送给终端设备的，应用层测量配置也可以是以一种非container的形式发送给终端设备的。
终端设备接收来自于第一接入网设备的多播业务的应用层测量配置信息。具体而言，终端设备的接入层(Access Stratum，AS)把从第一接入网设备收到的多播业务的应用层测量配置发送给终端设备的AS的上层。终端设备的AS的上层可以是应用层，也可能是一个进行QoE测量的层。
示例性的，终端设备的AS把应用层测量标识也发送给终端设备的AS的上层。
示例性的，终端设备的AS是通过口令(attention，AT)命令(command)的方式把上述信息发送给AS的上层。比如终端设备的AS向AS的上层发送应用层测量配置，可以通过AT command和应用层测量配置命令(command application level measurement configuration，CAPPLEVMC)来发送应用层测量配置。
S203，终端设备根据多播业务的应用层测量配置信息执行应用层测量，得到第一应用层测量结果信息，终端设备向第一接入网设备发送第一应用层测量结果信息，第一应用层测量结果信息包括多播业务的应用层测量结果，第一应用层测量结果信息包括多播业务的应用层测量标识。
相应地，第一接入网设备接收第一应用层测量结果信息。
示例性的，终端设备的AS的上层把第一应用层测量结果信息发送给终端设备的AS。终端设备的AS把第一应用层测量结果信息发送给第一接入网设备。
终端设备的AS的上层按照一定的规则(比如该规则是包含在应用层测量配置中)进行上报第一应 用层测量结果。比如终端设备的AS的上层周期性上报第一应用层测量结果。比如终端设备可以在一个会话结束之后才上报第一应用层测量结果，该会话是承载第一应用层测量结果信息对应的多播业务的会话。
当终端设备的AS的上层根据应用层测量配置需要上报第一应用层测量结果时，终端设备的AS的上层把第一应用层测量结果发送给终端设备的AS。第一应用层测量结果可以是以container的形式上报的。对于以这种container形式携带的应用层测量结果，也可以称为RAN不可见的应用层测量结果。
可选的，第一应用层测量结果信息包括多播业务的会话标识。
在一种可能的实现方式中，第一应用层测量结果信息包括的多播业务的会话标识是由多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中包括的多播业务会话标识。如，当第一接入网设备向终端设备发送的多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中包括多播业务会话标识时，终端设备根据多播业务会话标识确定进行应用层测量的多播业务会话，并对确定的多播业务会话进行应用层测量，得到应用层测量结果，终端设备向第一入网设备反馈应用层测量结果时携带该应用层测量结果对应的多播业务会话标识。
在一种可能的实现方式中，若多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中没有包括的多播业务会话标识，则，终端设备默认对正在进行的多播业务会话均进行应用层测量，得到应用层测量结果，终端设备向第一接入网设备反馈所有多播业务的会话对应的应用层测量结果，以及这些多播业务会话的标识。
示例性的，第一应用层测量结果信息还包括网络切片的标识，网络切片的标识用于指示多播业务对应的网络切片。
示例性的，第一应用层测量结果信息包括以容器形式携带的应用层测量结果。可选的，网络切片的标识和多播业务的会话标识是包含在应用层测量结果中。
S204，第一接入网设备向MCE发送第一应用层测量结果信息。

第一接入网设备根据保存的多播业务的应用层测量标识和QoE reference的对应关系及终端设备上报的多播业务的应用层测量标识，获得该应用层测量结果对应的QoE reference。第一接入网设备再根据QoE reference查找到对应的MCE的IP地址，从而把第一应用层测量结果信息发送给MCE。或者，第一接入网设备根据终端设备上报的多播业务的应用层测量标识获得对应的多播业务的应用层测量配置信息，再根据CN或OAM下发的QoE测量配置信息获得该第一应用层测量结果对应的MCE的IP地址，从而把应用层测量结果发送给MCE。
可选的，第一接入网设备只是向MCE发送第一应用层测量结果信息中的部分信息。例如第一接入网设备向MCE发送第一应用层测量结果信息中的应用层测量结果(container形式的应用层测量结果)。第一接入网设备还向MCE发送多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。
示例性的，第一接入网设备可以不向MCE发送多播业务的应用层测量标识、多播业务会话的标识和网络切片的标识等信息。
第一接入网设备向终端设备发送多播业务的应用层测量配置信息，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息会结合与单播业务有关的第一信息确定，在实现多播业务的QoE测量的同时也考虑了多播业务对应的单播业务的信息，终端设备不用再接收单播业务的应用层测量配置信息，终端设备会根据第一多播业务的应用层测量配置信息进行测量，向第一接入网设备上报第一应用层测量结果信息，第一接入网设备向MCE发送第一应用测量结果信息，网络侧如OAM可以根据第一应用测量结果信息可以优化网络，提高多播业务的性能参数，从而提升多播业务的通信质量。
在一个实施方式中，当终端设备从第一接入网设备切换到第二接入网设备时，本实施例还包括如下步骤S205至S209。
第一接入网设备支持多播业务，第二接入网设备不支持多播业务，第一接入网设备为源接入网设备，第二接入网设备为目标接入网设备。当终端设备从源接入网设备切换到目标接入网设备时，源接入网设备和目标接入网设备支持的业务类型不同，网络侧需要对业务数据进行处理。有两种处理方式：
方式一：源接入网设备在切换之前，为终端设备建立单播业务的数据无线承载(data radio bearer，DRB)，这样在切换之前，源接入网设备就已经为终端设备建立了单播业务的DRB，从而源接入网设备与目标接入网设备之间切换时可以采用单播业务在两个接入网设备之间切换时的处理方法，包括：源接入网设备会把DRB对应的数据包传给目标接入网设备。目标接入网设备只需为终端设备建立单播 业务的DRB。需要注意的是，针对单播业务，接入网设备为终端设备建立的传输单播业务的RB为DRB；针对多播业务，接入网设备为终端设备建立的传输多播广播业务的RB为组播广播业务无线承载(MBS radio bearer，MRB)。
方式二：目标接入网设备执行全配置。即目标接入网设备生成一个无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control，RRC)消息，其中RRC消息中携带一个全配置(full configuration)指示。目标接入网设备把该RRC消息发送给源接入网设备，再由源接入网设备把该RRC消息发送给终端设备。终端设备收到该携带全配置指示之后，终端设备会删除所有的AS侧相关配置，重新按照该RRC消息中携带的配置信息配置AS侧相关信息，例如按照目标接入网设备配置的DRB的配置信息配置AS侧。
上述简单描述了当终端设备从第一接入网设备切换到第二接入网设备时，数据业务如何处理。下面描述当终端设备从第一接入网设备切换到第二接入网设备时，终端设备如何进行应用层测量。图3是本申请的一种测量配置的方法200的示意性流程图。下面结合图3详细说明步骤S205至S209。
S205，第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备发送切换请求，切换请求包括单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识和单播业务的应用层测量标识。其中，第一接入网设备为源接入网设备，第二接入网设备为目标接入网设备，第二接入网设备不支持多播业务，单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识和单播业务的应用层测量标识是由第一接入网设备确定的，单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识对应多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。相应地，第二接入网设备响应切换请求。
具体而言，第二接入网设备支持单播业务，不支持多播业务，第一接入网设备根据多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识确定单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识，例如，多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识和单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识是相同的，又例如多播业务的QoE测量配置信息中包括多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识和单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识之间的对应关系，以便于第二接入网设备可以获知该单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。第一接入网设备根据多播业务的应用层测量配置信息的标识确定单播业务的应用层测量配置信息的标识，例如，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息的标识和单播业务的应用层测量配置信息的标识是相同的。切换请求中包括单播业务的应用层测量标识，是为了第二接入网设备可以获得终端设备上报的第二应用层测量结果对应的QoE测量配置信息的标识。
示例性的，在第一接入网设备确定终端设备向第二接入网设备切换时，第一接入网设备可以先将终端设备从接收多播业务重配为接收单播业务，然后终端设备再从第一接入网设备切换到第二接入网设备。
可选的，第一接入网设备可以向第二接入网设备直接发送切换请求，或者，第一接入网设备可以通过核心网向第二接入网设备发送切换请求。
可选的，切换请求包括单播业务的业务类型。第二接入网设备根据该单播业务的业务类型从而获知对应测量的业务类型，从而第二接入网设备在后续的处理中可以依据该业务类型进行一些处理。例如，当第二接入网设备出现无线侧的负载比较高时，第二接入网设备可以根据各个应用层测量的业务类型来确定各个应用层测量的优先级，从而可以暂停低优先级的应用层测量的测量上报或取消低优先级的应用层测量。
具体而言，如果多播业务的QoE测量的业务类型是一个新定义的业务类型，即和单播业务对应的QoE测量的业务类型(比如Streaming,VR,MTSI等)不同，则第一接入网设备根据QoE测量配置信息中的多播业务的业务类型与单播业务的业务类型之间的关系，向第二接入网设备发送的单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的业务类型为单播业务的业务类型。
S206，第一接入网设备通知终端设备切换到第二接入网设备。

可选的，网络切片的标识和多播业务的会话标识是包含在应用层测量结果中。
具体而言，不管终端设备当前接入的接入网设备是否支持多播，终端设备都只按照应用层测量最初始配置的时候采用的接收方式来上报应用层测量结果。即终端设备开始接收到多播的应用层测量时采用多播方式，则终端设备后续上报的应用层测量结果中都携带多播业务的会话标识。
可选的，终端设备向接入网设备上报应用层测量结果信息时，还可以上报当前接收业务的方式，即采用单播方式接收业务，还是采用多播方式接收业务。
在另一种实现方式中，第二应用层测量结果信息包括网络切片标识，不包括多播业务的会话标识。
示例性的，网络切片标识包含在应用层测量结果中。
具体而言，终端设备的AS的上层能获知终端设备的AS从多播方式接收变为单播方式接收业务，则终端设备的AS的上层在后续生成的应用层测量结果中就只携带网络切片标识，不携带多播业务的会话标识。
S209，第二接入网设备向MCE发送第二应用层测量结果信息。相应地，MCE接收来自于第二接入网设备的第二应用层测量结果信息。
第二接入网设备还向MCE发送单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。
示例性的，第二应用层测量结果包括第三指示信息，第三指示信息指示当前终端设备是采用单播方式接收业务，还是采用多播方式接收业务。
示例性的，第二接入网设备只向MCE发送第二应用层测量结果信息中的部分信息。例如第二接入网设备向MCE发送第二应用层测量结果信息中的应用层测量结果(container形式的应用层测量结果)。
当终端设备从支持多播业务的第一接入网设备切换到不支持多播业务的第二接入网设备时，终端设备仍然使用第一接入网设配置的多播业务的应用层测量配置信息进行测量，不需要第二接入网设备向终端设备再次下发多播业务对应的单播业务的应用层测量配置信息，可以节省信令开销。第二接入网设备向MCE发送第二层应用测量结果信息，第二应用层测量结果信息为单播业务的应用层测量信息。进而，OAM可以获取到单播业务的应用层测量信息并优化单播业务的性能，从而提升单播业务的通信质量。
图4是本申请的一种测量配置的方法300的示意性流程图。方法300不同于方法200，在方法200中，第一接入网设备收到多播业务的QoE测量配置信息和第一指示信息，第一指示信息用于指示终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收单播业务时使用多播业务的QoE测量配置信息，第一接入网设备向终端设备发送多播业务的应用层测量配置信息，多播业务的应用层测量配置信息包括第二指示信息，第二指示信息用于指示终端设备从接收多播业务变为接收单播业务时使用多播业务的应用层测量配置信息。而在方法300中，第一接入网设备收到多播业务的QoE测量配置信息和单播业务的QoE测量配置信息，第一接入网设备根据多播业务的QoE测量配置信息和单播业务的QoE测量配置信息，向终端设备发送多播业务的应用层测量配置信息和对应的单播业务的应用层测量配置信息。

第一接入网设备向MCE发送接入网设备不可见的应用层测量结果时，还发送多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。
可选的，第一接入网设备或第一接入网设备的CU或DU通知MCE当前多播业务是只配置了PTP传输还是只配置了PTM传输，还是同时配置了PTP传输和PTM传输。
第一接入网设备可以根据终端设备上报的多播业务中接入网设备可见的应用层指标的测量结果进行优化无线资源管理，比如当某个应用层指标的测量结果较低时，如时延较长时，第一接入网设备可以给该终端设备分配更多的资源，或者提高该终端设备的调度优先级，进而提高多播业务的性能，提高用户体验度。
在一个实施方式中，当终端设备从第一接入网设备切换到第二接入网设备时，本实施例还包括如下步骤S405至S410。图7是本申请的一种测量配置的方法400的示意性流程图。下面结合图7详细说明步骤405至S410。
S405，第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备发送切换请求，其中，第二接入网设备不支持多播业务，相应地，第二接入网设备响应切换请求。
示例性的，切换请求中只携带单播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层测量指标，不携带多播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层指标。换而言之，第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备发送切换请求中的RRC上下文中不包括第一接入网设备向终端设备配置的多播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层指标。例如，第一接入网设备为终端设备配置上报多播业务的接入网设备可见的应用层指标包括指标A/B/C，但单播业务的接入网设备可见的应用层指标只支持A/B，则第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备发送的RRC上下文中只通知第一接入网设备向终端设备配置了上报A/B的测量结果。
示例性的，第二接入网设备生成的切换命令携带了第二接入网设备为终端设备配置的接入网设备可见应用层测量配置信息，其中，第二接入网设备为终端设备配置的接入网设备可见应用层测量配置信息携带了单播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层测量指标。
S406，第一接入网设备向终端设备发送释放信息，释放信息用于指示终端设备释放接入网设备可见的应用层测量。
该释放信息可以用于指示终端设备释放多播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层指标的上报。
S407，第一接入网设备通知终端设备切换到第二接入网设备，第一接入网设备是基于第二接入网 设备生成的切换命令通知终端设备切换到第二接入网设备的。
S408，终端设备接入第二接入网设备。
示例性的，第二接入网设备向终端设备发送单播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层测量指标。
S409，终端设备把第二测量结果信息发送给第二接入网设备。第二测量结果信息包括接入网设备可见的应用层测量结果。
可选的，如果第二接入网设备没有为终端设备配置单播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层测量信息时，终端设备的AS的上层继续按照第一接入网设备配置的接入网设备可见的应用层测量信息进行测量，但终端设备的AS的上层只上报单播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层测量指标的测量结果。例如第一接入网设备为终端设备配置上报多播业务的接入网设备可见的应用层指标包括指标A/B/C，但单播业务的接入网设备可见的应用层指标只支持A/B，则终端设备只向第二接入网设备上报A/B的测量结果。
第二接入网设备无需重新向终端设备发送单播业务支持的接入网设备可见的应用层测量配置信息，从而节省信令开销。
终端设备在第二接入网设备还可以继续利用多播业务的应用层测量配置信息执行应用层测量，并获得接入网设备不可见的应用层测量结果，并向第二接入网设备发送接入网设备不可见的应用层测量结果。
S410，第二接入网设备把接入网设备不可见的应用层测量结果发送给MCE。
应理解，方法400可以与方法200和方法300结合使用，即第一接入网设备也向终端设备发送了多播业务的应用层测量配置信息和第一信息。同时，第一接入网设备向终端设备发送第一配置信息。相应的，终端设备可以执行接入网设备不可见的应用层测量，也可以同时执行接入网设备可见的应用层测量。
在方法400中，当终端设备从支持多播业务的第一接入网设备切换到不支持多播业务的第二接入网设备时，终端设备可以使用多播业务的接入网设备可见的应用层测量配置信息进行测量，但终端设备向第二接入网设备只反馈单播业务的接入网设备可见的应用层测量结果，第二接入网设备可以根据终端设备上报的单播业务中接入网设备可见的应用层指标的测量结果进行优化无线资源管理，如第二接入网设备可以给终端设备分配更多的资源，或者提高终端设备的调度优先级，进而提高单播业务的性能，从而提高单播业务的通信质量。

S504，第一接入网设备向MCE发送第一应用层测量结果信息。
相应地，MCE接收来自于第一接入网设备的第一应用层测量结果信息。
第一接入网设备还向MCE发送单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。
第一接入网设备向终端设备发送单播业务的应用层测量配置信息，单播业务的应用层测量配置信息会结合与多播业务有关的第一信息确定，在实现单播业务的QoE测量的同时也考虑了单播业务对应的多播业务的信息，便于后续终端设备不用再接收多播业务的应用层测量配置信息，终端设备会根据单播业务的应用层测量配置信息进行测量，向第一接入网设备上报第一应用层测量结果，第一接入网设备向MCE发送第一应用测量结果信息，网络侧如OAM根据该应用层测量结果可以优化网络，提高单播业务的性能参数，从而提高单播业务的通信质量。

在一个实施方式中，第一接入网设备根据单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识确定多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识，例如，单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识和多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识是相同的，又例如单播业务的QoE测量配置信息中包括单播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识和多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识之间的对应关系，以便于第二接入网设备可以获得该多播业务的QoE测量配置信息的标识。

示例性的，该切换请求包括多播业务的业务类型。
具体而言，第一接入网设备会确定多播业务的业务类型，由于目前多播业务的QoE测量中多播业务的业务类型只有一种，即多播业务，所以第一接入网设备在确定第二接入网设备支持多播业务时，第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备直接发送的切换请求中包括多播业务的业务类型的索引信息。第一接入网设备会确定多播业务的业务类型还可以理解为第一接入网设备设置多播业务的QoE测量的业务类型。
示例性的，在第一接入网设备确定终端设备向第二接入网设备切换时，第一接入网设备可以先将终端设备从接收单播业务重配为接收多播业务，然后终端设备再从第一接入网设备切换到第二接入网设备。

在另一种实现方式中，第二应用层测量结果信息只包括网络切片的标识。
具体而言，终端设备当前接入的接入网设备是否支持多播，终端设备都只按照应用层测量最初始配置的时候采用的接收方式来上报应用层测量结果。即终端设备开始接收到单播的应用层测量时采用单播方式，则终端设备后续上报的应用层测量结果中都携带网络切片的标识，而无需携带多播业务的会话标识。
