Abstract

A terminal device capable of communicating with a base station device includes a reception unit which performs first measurement based on a first RS and performs second measurement based on a second RS, and a higher layer processing unit which reports a result of the first measurement and a result of the second measurement to the base station device. The result of the first measurement is reported to the base station device in a first state. The result of the first measurement or the result of the second measurement is reported to the base station device in a second state.

Claims (31)

1. A terminal device, comprising:

measurement circuitry which performs first measurement for performing measurement by using a first reference signal and second measurement for performing measurement by using a second reference signal; and

reception circuitry which receives information on criteria for triggering of a measurement reporting event, wherein

the information on criteria for triggering of the measurement reporting event includes information on triggering criteria of an event of a first measurement reporting and information on triggering criteria of an event of a second measurement reporting,

the information on triggering criteria of the event of the first measurement reporting includes first information for specifying a triggering quantity used for evaluating criteria for triggering of an event of a measurement reporting related to the first reference signal, and

the information on triggering criteria of the event of the second measurement reporting includes second information for specifying a triggering quantity used for evaluating criteria for triggering of an event of a measurement reporting related to the second reference signal.

2. The terminal device according to claim 1 , further comprising

transmission circuitry which transfers a measurement report message including a measurement result, wherein

the measurement report message includes a result of the first measurement in a case where the first measurement reporting is triggered and includes a result of the second measurement in a case where the second measurement reporting is triggered.

3. The terminal device according to claim 1 , wherein the first information is information indicating RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) or RSRQ (Reference Signal Received Quality).

4. The terminal device according to claim 1 , wherein the first reference signal is a CRS (Cell-specific Reference Signal).

5. The terminal device according to claim 1 , wherein the second information is information indicating RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power).

6. The terminal device according to claim 1 , wherein the second reference signal is a CSI-RS (Channel State Information Reference Signal).

7. A base station device, comprising:

transmission circuitry which transmits information on criteria for triggering of a measurement reporting event, wherein

the information on criteria for triggering of the measurement reporting event includes information on triggering criteria of an event of a first measurement reporting for measurement using a first reference signal and information on triggering criteria of an event of a second measurement reporting for measurement using a second reference signal,

the information on triggering criteria of the event of the first measurement reporting includes first information for specifying a triggering quantity used for evaluating criteria for triggering of an event of a measurement reporting related to the first reference signal, and

the information on triggering criteria of the event of the second measurement reporting includes second information for specifying a triggering quantity used for evaluating criteria for triggering of an event of a measurement reporting related to the second reference signal.

8. The base station device according to claim 7 , further comprising

reception circuitry which receives a measurement message including a measurement result, wherein

the measurement message includes a result of the first measurement in a case where the first measurement reporting is triggered and includes a result of the second measurement in a case where the second measurement reporting is triggered.

9. The base station device according to claim 7 , wherein the first information is information indicating RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) or RSRQ (Reference Signal Received Quality).

10. The base station device according to claim 7 , wherein the first reference signal is a CRS (Cell-specific Reference Signal).

11. The base station device according to claim 7 , wherein the second information is information indicating RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power).

12. The base station device according to claim 7 , wherein the second reference signal is a CSI-RS (Channel State Information Reference Signal).

13. A communication method of a terminal device, the communication method comprising:

a step of performing first measurement for performing measurement by using a first reference signal and second measurement for performing measurement by using a second reference signal; and

a step of receiving information on criteria for triggering of a measurement reporting event, wherein

the information on criteria for triggering of the measurement reporting event includes information on triggering criteria of an event of a first measurement reporting and information on triggering criteria of an event of a second measurement reporting,

the information on triggering criteria of the event of the first measurement reporting includes first information for specifying a triggering quantity used for evaluating criteria for triggering of an event of a measurement reporting related to the first reference signal, and

the information on triggering criteria of the event of the second measurement reporting includes second information for specifying a triggering quantity used for evaluating criteria for triggering of an event of a measurement reporting related to the second reference signal.
