Abstract

A disclosure of the present specification provides a method for measuring an interference from a neighboring device. The method may performed by a device and comprise: measuring, by the device, an interference based on a reference signal from a neighboring device, which is served by a neighboring cell; and transmitting, by the device, a measurement report to a serving cell, the measurement report including a measured value of the interference. One or more steps of measuring the interference and transmitting the measurement report may be performed based on configuration information. The configuration information includes one or more of start information, end information, a timer or a threshold.

Claims (26)

1. A method performed by a device, the method comprising:

receiving, by the device from a serving cell, a threshold related to reporting of a measurement report;

receiving, by the device from the serving cell, configuration information related to measuring a cross link interference (CLI);

measuring, by the device, the CLI based on the configuration information and by measuring a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmitted from a neighboring device, which is served by a neighboring cell; and

transmitting, by the device to the serving cell, the measurement report including a measured CLI value satisfying the threshold.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the device from the serving cell, information on a SRS configuration of the neighboring device served by the neighboring cell.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the configuration information includes one or more of start information, end information, and a timer,

wherein the start information starts the one or more steps of measuring the CLI and transmitting the measurement report,

wherein the end information stops the one or more steps of measuring the CLI and transmitting the measurement report, and

wherein the timer stops the one or more steps of measuring the CLI and transmitting the measurement report.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein measuring CLI measures a reference signal received power (RSRP) value of the SRS from the neighboring device.

5. A device comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor,

wherein the transceiver is configured to receive, from a serving cell, a threshold related to reporting of a measurement report;

wherein the transceiver is configured to receive, from the serving cell, configuration information related to measuring a cross link interference (CLI);

wherein the processor is configured to measure the CLI based on the configuration information and by measuring a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmitted from a neighboring device, which is served by a neighboring cell; and

wherein the transceiver is configured to transmit, to the serving cell, the measurement report including a measured value of the CLI based on the measured CLI value satisfying the threshold.

6. The device of claim 5 ,

wherein the configuration information includes one or more of start information, end information, and a timer,

wherein the start information starts the one or more operations of measuring the CLI and transmitting the measurement report,

wherein the end information stops the one or more operations of measuring the CLI and transmitting the measurement report, and

wherein the timer stops the one or more operations of measuring the CLI and transmitting the measurement report.

7. The device of claim 5 , wherein measuring CLI measures a reference signal received power (RSRP) value of the SRS from the neighboring device.
