MEASUREMENT METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17962998 titled 'MEASUREMENT METHOD AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a measurement method in which a terminal device receives instructions to measure a specific cell on a specific frequency from a network element. The terminal device then sends a measurement report back to the network element, including the measurement results of the specified cell as well as another cell on a different frequency.
- The terminal device receives a measurement configuration from a network element.
- The measurement configuration instructs the terminal device to measure a specific cell on a specific frequency.
- The terminal device measures the specified cell and another cell on a different frequency.
- The terminal device sends a measurement report back to the network element.
- The measurement report includes the measurement results of both the specified cell and the other cell.
Potential Applications
- This measurement method can be used in cellular networks to gather information about the quality and performance of different cells on different frequencies.
- It can help network operators optimize their networks by identifying areas with poor coverage or high interference.
Problems Solved
- This method allows for simultaneous measurement of multiple cells on different frequencies, providing a more comprehensive view of the network's performance.
- It enables efficient data collection and analysis, helping network operators make informed decisions for network optimization.
Benefits
- The measurement method improves network performance by identifying and addressing issues in specific cells and frequencies.
- It allows for better network planning and resource allocation based on accurate measurement data.
- The method enhances the overall user experience by ensuring optimal network coverage and quality.
Original Abstract Submitted
In a measurement method, a terminal device receives a first measurement configuration from a first network element, where the first measurement configuration indicates that the terminal device is to measure a first cell corresponding to a first frequency. The terminal device then sends a measurement report to the first network element, where the measurement report includes a first measurement result of measuring the first cell and a second measurement result of measuring a second cell corresponding to a second frequency, and the second frequency is at least one non-serving frequency different from the first frequency.
