Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and more specifically, to a measurement method, device and readable storage medium for switching a down link band width part (DLBWP).


BACKGROUND

In the wireless communication technology such as the 5th Generation Mobile Communication Technology (5G), a cross-link interference (CLI) may occur between user equipments (UEs) when conducting communication simultaneously (including transmitting and/or receiving) on the same time-division duplex (TDD) carrier according to different scheduling commands.


In order to mitigate the cross-link interference, the UE measures the uplink Sounding Reference Signal-Reference Signal Receiving Power (SRS-RSRP) and/or Cross Link Interference-Received Signal Strength Indication (CLI-RSSI).


For example, a group of aggressor UEs transmits data on the same TTD carrier, while another group of victim UEs receives data on this same TTD carrier. The UE measures the SRS-RSRP and/or CLI-RSSI and reports the measurement result, and the network device (e.g., gNB) may evaluate the interference of the aggressor UE to the victim UE based on the measurement result. The aggressor UE transmits an SRS signal with a set configuration, and the victim UE performs an interference measurement on the SRS signal with a corresponding configuration.

Embodiments will be described herein in detail, examples of which are represented in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the accompanying drawings, the same reference numerals in different accompanying drawings indicate the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the embodiments of the present disclosure. Rather, they are only examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.


As shown in FIG. 1, a measurement method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be applied to a wireless communication system 100, which may include, but is not limited to, a network device 101 and a user device 102. The user device 102 is configured to support carrier aggregation, and the user device 102 may be coupled to a plurality of carrier units (including a primary carrier unit and one or more secondary carrier units) of the network device 101.


It should be understood that the above wireless communication system 100 may be applicable to both low frequency and high frequency scenarios. The application scenarios of the wireless communication system 100 include, but are not limited to, a long term evolution (LTE) system, an LTE frequency division duplex (FDD) system, an LTE time division duplex (TDD) system, a worldwide interoperability for micro wave access (WiMAX) communication system, a cloud radio access network (CRAN) system, a future 5th-generation (5G) system, a new radio (NR) communication system, a future evolved public land mobile network (PLMN) system, and the like.


The user device 102 shown above may be a user equipment (UE), a terminal, an access terminal, a terminal unit, a terminal station, a mobile station (MS), a remote station, a remote terminal, a mobile terminal, a wireless communication device, a terminal agent, or a user apparatus. The user device 102 may have a wireless transceiver function, which can communicate (e.g., wirelessly) with one or more network devices 101 of the one or more communication systems, and accept network services provided by the network device 101. The network device 101 herein includes, but is not limited to, the base station illustrated.


The user device 102 may be a cellular telephone, a cordless telephone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) telephone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (PDA) device, a handheld device with wireless communication capabilities, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, an in-vehicle device, a wearable device, a user device in a future 5G network, or a user device in a future evolved PLMN network, and the like.


The network device 101 may be an access network device (or access network site). The access network device is a device that has a function of providing network access, such as a radio access network (RAN) base station and the like. The network device may specifically include a base station (BS) device, or include a base station device and a wireless resource management device for controlling the base station device, and the like. The network device may also include a relay station (a relay device), an access point, and a base station in the future 5G network, a base station in the future evolved PLMN network, or a NR base station, and the like. The network device may be a wearable device or an in-vehicle device. The network device may also be a communication chip having a communication module.


For example, the network device 101 includes, but is not limited to, a next-generation base station (gnodeB, gNB) in 5G, an evolved node B (eNB) in an LTE system, a radio network controller (RNC), a node B (NB) in a WCDMA system, a wireless controller in a CRAN system, a base station controller (BSC), a base transceiver station (BTS) in a GSM system or a CDMA system, a home base station (e.g., a home evolved nodeB, or a home node B, HNB), a baseband unit (BBU), a transmitting and receiving point (TRP), a transmitting point (TP), or a mobile switching center and the like.


In view of the fact that the UE only performs the CLI measurement on an active BWP but not on other downlink BWPs in the service cell, which cannot ensure the accuracy of the measurement result, it may consider how to improve the accuracy of the measurement result. Further, how to switch to a suitable DLBWP in case of cross-link interference is a technical problem to be solved.


An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a measurement method. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a measurement method according to an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the measurement method includes the following steps.


In step S200, the network device 101 transmits first configuration information to the user device 102. The first configuration information indicates to perform a cross-link interference (CLI) measurement for at least one measurement object within at least one DLBWP, and the at least one measurement object includes at least one of SRS-RSRP or CLI-RSSI.


In some implementations, the at least one DLBWP includes at least one inactive BWP.


In some implementations, only one active BWP is included in the same service cell, and thus the at least one DLBWP includes at least one inactive DLBWP.


In step S201, the user device 102 receives the first configuration information from the network device 101.


In step S202, the user device 102 performs, based on the first configuration information, a CLI measurement for the at least one measurement object within the at least one DLBWP.


In step S203, the user device 102 transmits a measurement report to the network device 101. The measurement report includes measurement results corresponding to all or some of DLBWPs of the at least one DLBWP.


In step S204, the network device 101 receives the measurement report transmitted by the user device 101.


In step S205, the network device 101 determines a target DLBWP based on the measurement report.


In step S206, the network device 101 transmits a switching indication to the user device 102. The switching indication instructs the user device 102 to switch to the target DLBWP.


In step S207, the user device 102 receives the switching indication.


The user device 102 may switche to the target DLBWP.


In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the deficiency that the user device can only perform the CLI measurement on one active BWP in the same service cell is overcome by performing a measurement on at least one DLBWP including an inactive DLBWP in the same service cell, thereby obtaining more accurate measurement results.
