METHOD AND DEVICE FOR EVENT TRIGGERED MEASUREMENT REPORTING
Methods and devices for event triggered measurement reporting are provided. The method includes determining whether a specific scheduling request (SR) configuration is configured to the UE. In a case that the specific SR configuration is configured to the UE, the method transmits, to a base station (BS), an SR according to the specific SR configuration in response to a fulfillment of a condition. The method receives, from the BS, downlink control information (DCI) indicating a first uplink (UL) resource for transmitting a measurement report, and transmits, to the BS, the measurement report on the first UL resource.
1 . A method for event triggered measurement reporting performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
determining whether a specific scheduling request (SR) configuration is configured to the UE;
in a case that the specific SR configuration is configured to the UE, transmitting, to a base station (BS), an SR according to the specific SR configuration in response to a fulfillment of a condition;
receiving, from the BS, downlink control information (DCI) indicating a first uplink (UL) resource for transmitting a measurement report; and
transmitting, to the BS, the measurement report on the first UL resource.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific SR configuration is associated with a Layer 1/Layer 2 (L1/L2) Triggered Mobility (LTM) mechanism.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific SR configuration comprises an SR configuration for event triggered measurement reporting.
4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining whether the first UL resource overlaps with a second UL resource that is configured to the UE for transmitting a content; and
in a case that the first UL resource overlaps with the second UL resource, transmitting, to the BS, the measurement report, the content, or a multiplexing of the measurement report and the content on the first UL resource or the second UL resource.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is associated with a non-filtered Layer 1 measurement result with respect to a serving cell.
6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the condition is fulfilled in a case that the measurement result indicates that a signal quality of at least one candidate cell is better than a signal quality of the serving cell.
7 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the condition is fulfilled in a case that the measurement result indicates that a signal quality of at least one candidate cell exceeds a signal quality of the serving cell by more than a predetermined threshold.
8 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the condition is fulfilled in a case that the measurement result indicates that a signal quality of the serving cell is worse than a predetermined threshold.
9 . A user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing one or more computer-executable instructions; and
at least one processor coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, the at least one processor configured to execute the one or more computer-executable instructions to cause the UE to:
determine whether a specific scheduling request (SR) configuration is configured to the UE;
in a case that the specific SR configuration is configured to the UE, transmit, to a base station (BS), an SR according to the specific SR configuration in response to a fulfillment of a condition;
receive, from the BS, downlink control information (DCI) indicating a first uplink (UL) resource for transmitting a measurement report; and
transmit, to the BS, the measurement report on the first UL resource.
10 . The UE of claim 9 , wherein the specific SR configuration is associated with a Layer 1/Layer 2 (L1/L2) Triggered Mobility (LTM) mechanism.
11 . The UE of claim 9 , wherein the specific SR configuration comprises an SR configuration for event triggered measurement reporting.
12 . The UE of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to further cause the UE to:
determine whether the first UL resource overlaps with a second UL resource that is configured to the UE for transmitting a content; and
in a case that the first UL resource overlaps with the second UL resource, transmit, to the BS, the measurement report, the content, or a multiplexing of the measurement report and the content on the first UL resource or the second UL resource.
13 . The UE of claim 9 , wherein the condition is associated with a non-filtered Layer 1 measurement result with respect to a serving cell.
14 . The UE of claim 13 , wherein the condition is fulfilled in a case that the measurement result indicates that a signal quality of at least one candidate cell is better than a signal quality of the serving cell.
15 . The UE of claim 13 , wherein the condition is fulfilled in a case that the measurement result indicates that a signal quality of at least one candidate cell exceeds a signal quality of the serving cell by more than a predetermined threshold.
16 . The UE of claim 13 , wherein the condition is fulfilled in a case that the measurement result indicates that a signal quality of the serving cell is worse than a predetermined threshold.
17 . A base station (BS), comprising:
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing one or more computer-executable instructions; and
at least one processor coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, the at least one processor configured to execute the one or more computer-executable instructions to cause the BS to:
transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a specific scheduling request (SR) configuration;
receive, from the UE, an SR associated with the specific SR configuration;
transmit, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) indicating a first uplink (UL) resource for receiving a measurement report in response to a reception of the SR associated with the specific SR configuration; and
receive, from the UE, the measurement report on the first UL resource.
18 . The BS of claim 17 , wherein the specific SR configuration is associated with a Layer 1/Layer 2 (L1/L2) Triggered Mobility (LTM) mechanism.
19 . The BS of claim 17 , wherein the specific SR configuration comprises an SR configuration for event triggered measurement reporting.
20 . The BS of claim 17 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the one or more computer-executable instructions to further cause the BS to:
transmit, to the UE, a configuration of a second UL resource for receiving a content; and
in a case that the first UL resource overlaps with the second UL resource, receive, from the UE, the measurement report, the content, or a multiplexing of the measurement report and the content on the first UL resource or the second UL resource.
