Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a measurement configuration method, a device, and a system, and relate to the field of communications technologies. The measurement configuration method includes obtaining priorities of M pieces of measurement indication information, and measuring, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, a to-be-measured frequency corresponding to target measurement indication information, where M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

Claims (29)

1. A measurement configuration method applied to user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

obtaining priorities of M pieces of measurement indication information; and

measuring, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, a to-be-measured frequency corresponding to target measurement indication information, wherein M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the target measurement indication information includes at least one piece of measurement indication information having a priority greater than or equal to a preset priority in the M pieces of measurement indication information.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein measuring the to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the target measurement indication information according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information comprises:

measuring, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, signal quality of a cell corresponding to an N th piece of measurement indication information in the M pieces of measurement indication information, wherein N is a positive integer less than M, wherein

when the signal quality of the cell corresponding to the N th piece of measurement indication information is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the target measurement indication information is the N th piece of measurement indication information.

4. The method according to claim 3 , further comprising:

when the signal quality of the cell corresponding to the N th piece of measurement indication information is less than the preset threshold, measuring signal quality of a cell corresponding to an (N+1) th piece of measurement indication information in the M pieces of measurement indication information.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the M pieces of measurement indication information is any one of the following: a radio access technology (RAT) type, a to-be-measured frequency, a RAT type and at least one to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the RAT type, a cell identifier, and a RAT type and at least one cell identifier corresponding to the RAT type.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information are predefined, or configured by a network side device for the UE, or determined by the UE according to a preset rule.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein measuring the to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the target measurement indication information according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information comprises:

measuring, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, the to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the target measurement indication information when the UE is in a non-connected state.

8. A measurement configuration method, applied to a network side device, the method comprising:

sending measurement configuration information to UE, wherein the measurement configuration information is used to indicate priorities of M pieces of measurement indication information, the measurement configuration information is used by the UE to measure a to-be-measured frequency corresponding to target measurement indication information, and M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein each of the M pieces of measurement indication information is any one of the following: a RAT type, a to-be-measured frequency, a RAT type and at least one to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the RAT type, a cell identifier, and a RAT type and at least one cell identifier corresponding to the RAT type.

10. User equipment (UE), comprising: a processor, a memory, and a computer program that is stored in the memory and that is executable on the processor, wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:

obtain priorities of M pieces of measurement indication information; and

measure, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, a to-be-measured frequency corresponding to target measurement indication information, wherein M is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

11. The user equipment according to claim 10 , wherein the target measurement indication information includes at least one piece of measurement indication information having a priority greater than or equal to a preset priority in the M pieces of measurement indication information.

12. The user equipment according to claim 10 , wherein, to measure the to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the target measurement indication information according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, the computer program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:

measure, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, signal quality of a cell corresponding to an N th piece of measurement indication information in the M pieces of measurement indication information, wherein N is a positive integer less than M, wherein

when the signal quality of the cell corresponding to the N th piece of measurement indication information is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the target measurement indication information is the N th piece of measurement indication information.

13. The user equipment according to claim 12 , wherein the computer program, when executed by the processor, further causes the processor to:

when the signal quality of the cell corresponding to the N th piece of measurement indication information is less than the preset threshold, measure signal quality of a cell corresponding to an (N+1) th piece of measurement indication information in the M pieces of measurement indication information.

14. The user equipment according to claim 10 , wherein each of the M pieces of measurement indication information is any one of the following: a RAT type, a to-be-measured frequency, a RAT type and at least one to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the RAT type, a cell identifier, and a RAT type and at least one cell identifier corresponding to the RAT type.

15. The user equipment according to claim 10 , wherein the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information are predefined, or configured by a network side device for the UE, or determined by the UE according to a preset rule.

16. The user equipment according to claim 10 , wherein, to measure the to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the target measurement indication information according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, the computer program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:

measure, according to the priorities of the M pieces of measurement indication information, the to-be-measured frequency corresponding to the target measurement indication information when the UE is in a non-connected state.
