Abstract

Provided are a method of measuring by using a terminal in a wireless communication system, and a device supporting same. The terminal may: measure on the basis of a reference signal; receive a reference signal flag from a network; and derive a new measurement result on the basis on the received reference signal flag. The reference signal flag issues instructions as to whether a reference signal is sent from a target subframe, and the target subframe is a subframe used to derive the new measurement result.

Claims (27)

1. A method for performing measurement by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

performing measurement on a plurality of subframes, based on a reference signal;

after performing the measurement, receiving a reference signal flag informing the UE of at least one target subframe, on a first subframe from a network,

wherein the target subframe is N subframes previous to the first subframe on which the reference signal flag is received, and

wherein the N is a positive integer; and

deriving a new measurement result, based on a result of the measurement on the target subframe among a result of the measurement on the plurality of subframes.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing a result of the performed measurement on the plurality of subframes.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the stored result is at least one of reference signal received power (RSRP), reference symbol received quality (RSRQ), and/or a received signal strength indicator (RSSI).

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining whether or not to report the derived new measurement result to the network, by evaluating the derived new measurement result.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of subframes are all subframes.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of subframes are subframes in which the reference signal is transmitted.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement is at least one of radio resource management (RRM) measurement, radio link monitoring (RLM) measurement, and/or channel state information (CSI) measurement.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the new measurement result is derived by collecting a result of the measurement on at least one subframe in which the reference signal is transmitted among the target subframe.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reference signal flag includes a value of the N.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reference signal and the reference signal flag are received on an unlicensed frequency.

11. A user equipment (UE) for performing measurement in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a memory;

a transceiver; and

a processor connected to the memory and the transceiver,

wherein the processor is configured to:

perform measurement on a plurality of subframes, based on a reference signal,

after performing the measurement, control the transceiver to receive a reference signal flag informing the UE of at least one target subframe, on a first subframe from a network,

wherein the target subframe is N subframes previous to the first subframe on which the reference signal flag is received, and

wherein the N is a positive integer, and

derive a new measurement result, based on a result of the measurement on the target subframe among a result of the measurement on the plurality of subframes.
