Abstract

Disclosed are a communication technique for merging, with IoT technology, a 5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G communication system, and a system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied to intelligent services (for example, smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, healthcare, digital education, retail, security and safety-related services, and the like) on the basis of 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. The present disclosure can be applied to: an operating method of a base station, including the steps of transmitting a synchronization signal (SS) measurement report request to a terminal, receiving, from the terminal, a first measurement report including SS measurement information on a neighboring base station, transmitting to the terminal, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) measurement report request on the basis of the first measurement report, and receiving, from the terminal, a second measurement report including the CSI-RS measurement information on the neighboring base station, the base station; a terminal communicating with the base station; and an operating method of the terminal.

Claims (39)

1. A method of operating a base station, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a terminal, a synchronization signal (SS) measurement report request;

receiving, from the terminal, a first measurement report including SS measurement information for a neighbor base station;

transmitting, to the terminal, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) measurement report request, based on the first measurement report; and

receiving, from the terminal, a second measurement report including CSI-RS measurement information for the neighbor base station,

wherein, in case that a bandwidth part or a center frequency to be measured by the terminal for the neighbor base station is different from that of the base station, the CSI-RS measurement report request includes information on a measurement gap, and

wherein a measurement gap configured for the center frequency being different is larger than a measurement gap configured for the bandwidth part being different.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising making a request for changing at least one of a CSI-RS configuration, a bandwidth part configuration, or a center frequency configuration for the terminal to the neighbor base station, based on the first measurement report.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining mobility of the terminal, based on at least one of the first measurement report or the second measurement report.

4. A base station comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal; and

a controller configured to:

transmit, to a terminal, a synchronization signal (SS) measurement report request,

receive, from the terminal, a first measurement report including SS measurement information for a neighbor base station,

transmit, to the terminal, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) measurement report request, based on the first measurement report, and

receive, from the terminal, a second measurement report including CSI-RS measurement information for the neighbor base station,

wherein, in case that a bandwidth part or a center frequency to be measured by the terminal for the neighbor base station is different from that of the base station, the CSI-RS measurement report request includes information on a measurement gap, and

wherein a measurement gap configured for the center frequency being different is larger than a measurement gap configured for the bandwidth part being different.

5. The base station of claim 4 , wherein the controller is configured to make a request for changing at least one of a CSI-RS configuration, a bandwidth part configuration, or a center frequency configuration for the terminal to the neighbor base station, based on the first measurement report.

6. The base station of claim 4 , wherein the controller is configured to determine mobility of the terminal, based on at least one of the first measurement report or the second measurement report.

7. A method of operating a terminal, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, a synchronization signal (SS) measurement report request;

transmitting, to the base station, a first measurement report including SS measurement information for a neighbor base station;

receiving, from the base station, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) measurement report request in response to the first measurement report; and

transmitting, to the base station, a second measurement report including CSI-RS measurement information for the neighbor base station,

wherein, in case that a bandwidth part or a center frequency to be measured by the terminal for the neighbor base station is different from that of the base station, the CSI-RS measurement report request includes information on a measurement gap, and

wherein a measurement gap configured for the center frequency being different is larger than a measurement gap configured for the bandwidth part being different.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein at least one of the first measurement report or the second measurement report is used to determine mobility of the terminal by the base station.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the first measurement report is used to determine a handover of the terminal by the base station.

10. A terminal comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a signal; and

a controller configured to:

receive, from a base station, a synchronization signal (SS) measurement report request,

transmit, to the base station, a first measurement report including SS measurement information for a neighbor base station,

receive, from the base station, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) measurement report request in response to the first measurement report, and

transmit, to the base station, a second measurement report including CSI-RS measurement information for the neighbor base station,

wherein, in case that a bandwidth part or a center frequency to be measured by the terminal for the neighbor base station is different from that of the base station, the CSI-RS measurement report request includes information on a measurement gap, and

wherein a measurement gap configured for the center frequency being different is larger than a measurement gap configured for the bandwidth part being different.

11. The terminal of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the first measurement report or the second measurement report is used to determine mobility of the terminal by the base station, and the first measurement report is used to determine handover of the terminal by the base station.
