Abstract

There is provided a method for performing measurement, the method performed by a communication device and comprising: receiving information related to configured measurement gap (MG) from a serving cell, wherein the information related to the configured MG includes MG timing advance value; determining a MG based on the information related to the configured MG; and performing the measurement during the determined MG, wherein the determined MG starts at the MG timing advance value advanced to an end of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the configured MG.

Claims (43)

1. A method for performing measurement, the method performed by a communication device and comprising:

receiving information related to configured measurement gap (MG) from a serving cell,

wherein the information related to the configured MG includes a MG timing advance value;

determining a MG based on the information related to the configured MG; and

performing the measurement during the determined MG,

wherein the determined MG starts at the MG timing advance value advanced to an end of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the configured MG, and

wherein the MG timing advance value is 0.5 ms, and

wherein half-slots, which do not overlap with the determined MG, occur before and after the determined MG, based on a subcarrier spacing (SCS) value configured for the wireless device being equal to 15 kHz.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a starting time of the determined MG is determined based on DL timing of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the MG and the information related to the configured MG.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the starting time of the determined MG is determined to be a time point corresponding to the MG timing advance value advanced to the end of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the configured MG.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the determined MG starts at the starting time of the MG and the determined MG ends at a time point corresponding to a MG Length (MGL) value after the starting time of the MG.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information related to the configured MG further includes a MG Length (MGL) value and a MG Repetition Period (MGRP) value.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configured MG is one of per-wireless device MG, per-FR MG for (Frequency Range) FR 1, or per-FR MG for FR 2.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: transmitting uplink data based on the SCS value and the MG timing advance value.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MG timing advance value is one of 0 ms, 0.25 ms or 0.5 ms.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the MG timing advance is not applied for the measurement based on that the MG timing advance value is equal to 0 ms.

10. A communication device for performing measurement, the communication device comprising,

a transceiver;

a memory and

a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, the processor is configured to:

control the transceiver to receive information related to measurement gap (MG) from a serving cell,

wherein the information related to the configured MG includes MG timing advance value;

determine a MG based on the information related to the configured MG; and

perform the measurement during the determined MG,

wherein the determined MG starts at the MG timing advance value advanced to an end of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the configured MG,

wherein the MG timing advance value is 0.5 ms,

and wherein half-slots, which do not overlap with the determined MG, occur before and after the determined MG, based on a subcarrier spacing (SCS) value configured for the wireless device being equal to 15 kHz.

11. The communication device of claim 10 , wherein a starting time of the determined MG is determined based on DL timing of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the MG and the information related to the configured MG.

12. The communication device of claim 11 , wherein the starting time of the determined MG is determined to be a time point corresponding to the MG timing advance value advanced to the end of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the configured MG.

13. The communication device of claim 10 , wherein the information related to the configured MG further includes a MG Length (MGL) value and a MG Repetition Period (MGRP) value.

14. The communication device of claim 10 , wherein the configured MG is one of per-wireless device MG, per-FR MG for (Frequency Range) FR 1, or per-FR MG for FR 2.

15. The communication device of claim 10 , the processor is further configured to: control the transceiver to transmit uplink data based on the SCS value and the MG timing advance value.

16. The communication of claim 10 , wherein the MG timing advance is not applied for the measurement based on that the MG timing advance value is equal to 0 ms.

17. The communication device of claim 10 , wherein the communication device is an autonomous driving device communicating with at least one of a mobile terminal, network or autonomous driving vehicle other than the communication device.

18. A processor for a communication device comprising: circuitry,

wherein the circuitry is configured to control the communication device to:

receive information related to measurement gap (MG) from a serving cell,

wherein the information related to the configured MG includes MG timing advance value;

determine a MG based on the information related to the configured MG; and

perform the measurement during the determined MG,

wherein the determined MG starts at the MG timing advance value advanced to an end of the latest subframe occurring immediately before the configured MG,

wherein the MG timing advance value is 0.5 ms, and

wherein half-slots, which do not overlap with the determined MG, occur before and after the determined MG, based on a subcarrier spacing (SCS) value configured for the wireless device being equal to 15 kHz.
