Method for managing beam groups, base station, and terminal

1. A method for managing beam groups, applicable to a terminal, the method comprising:

measuring received signal strength or received signal quality of mobility/measurement reference signals of all beams;

grouping, according to different cells, all the beams in accordance with a synchronization signal sequence of each beam;

receiving parameter information of each of all beams in each cell;

assigning, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into at least one beam group; and

selecting, in each of the at least one beam group, a beam having the strongest received signal strength or the highest received signal quality to calculate measured quality or perform measurement reporting in each cell,

wherein the parameter information comprises at least one of received signal strength deviation values or received signal quality deviation values, and the at least one of the received signal strength deviation values or the received signal quality deviation values are the same on the same carrier frequency.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the parameter information further comprises:

a beam-group identifier.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the parameter information comprises the beam-group identifier, and dividing, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into the at least one beam group comprises:

assigning beams having the same beam-group identifier in each cell into the same beam group according to a beam-group identifier carried by each of all the beams.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein assigning, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into the at least one beam group comprises:

selecting, among all beams measured, a beam having the strongest received signal strength or the highest received signal quality as a current strongest beam; and

combining all first beams and the current strongest beam into one beam group, wherein a difference between received signal strength of each of all the first beams and received signal strength of the current strongest beam is within a range of the received signal strength deviation value or a difference between received signal quality of each of all the first beams and received signal quality of the current strongest beam is within a range of the received signal quality deviation value.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein assigning, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into the at least one beam group further comprises:

based on a determination that at least one beam remains unassigned, selecting, from the at least one remaining beam, a beam having the strongest received signal strength or the highest received signal quality as the current strongest beam.

6. A terminal, comprising a processor, and a memory, wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the processor; and the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

measure received signal strength or received signal quality of mobility management measurement reference signals of all beams;

group, according to different cells, all the beams in accordance with a synchronization signal sequence of each beam;

receive parameter information of each of all beams in each cell;

assign, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into at least one beam group; and

select, in each of the at least one beam group, a beam having the strongest received signal strength or the highest received signal quality to calculate measured quality or perform measurement reporting in each cell,

wherein the parameter information is at least one of received signal strength deviation values or received signal quality deviation values, and the at least one of the received signal strength deviation values or the received signal quality deviation values are the same on the same carrier frequency.

7. The terminal of claim 6 , wherein the parameter information further comprises:

a beam-group identifier.

8. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the parameter information comprises the beam-group identifier, and the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

assign beams having the same beam-group identifier in each cell into the same beam group according to a beam-group identifier carried by each of all the beams.

9. The terminal of claim 6 , wherein the instructions caused the processor to assign, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into the at least one beam group further cause the processor to:

select, among all beams measured, a beam having the strongest received signal strength or the highest received signal quality as a current strongest beam; and

combine all first beams and the current strongest beam into one beam group, wherein a difference between received signal strength of each of all the first beams and received signal strength of the current strongest beam is within a range of the received signal strength deviation value or a difference between received signal quality of each of all the first beams and received signal quality of the current strongest beam is within a range of the received signal quality deviation value.

10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the instructions caused the processor to assign, according to the parameter information, all the beams in each cell into the at least one beam group further cause the processor to:

based on a determination that at least one beam remains unassigned, select, from the at least one remaining beam, a beam having the strongest received signal strength or the highest received signal quality as the current strongest beam.
