Abstract
According to certain embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device (110) for measurement reporting includes sorting a plurality of measurements for a measurement report based on at least one measurement quantity. The method further includes reporting, to a network node (160), measurement information selected from the plurality of measurements sorted based on the at least one measurement quantity.
Claims22
A method performed by a wireless device for measurement reporting, the method comprising:
- receiving a reporting configuration from a network node, the reporting configuration specifying a plurality of different types of report quantities to be included in a measurement report;
- determining whether to use Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) as a measurement quantity for sorting of beam-level measurements based on the plurality of reporting quantities specified in the reporting configuration, wherein RSRQ is determined to be used as the measurement quantity, because the reporting configuration received from the network node does not indicate RSRP as one of the plurality of different types of report quantities;
- sorting a plurality of beam-level measurements for a periodical measurement report based on at least the determined measurement quantity;
- and
- reporting to a network node the measurement report comprising measurement information selected from the plurality of beam-level measurements based on the sorting of the plurality of beam-level measurements based on at least the determined measurement quantity.
A wireless device for measurement reporting, the wireless device comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to:
- receive a reporting configuration from a network node, the reporting configuration specifying a plurality of different types of report quantities to be included in a measurement report;
- determine whether to use Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) as a measurement quantity for sorting of beam-level measurements based on the plurality of reporting quantities specified in the reporting configuration, wherein RSRQ is determined to be used as the measurement quantity, because the reporting configuration received from the network node does not indicate RSRP as one of the plurality of different types of report quantities;
- sort a plurality of beam-level measurements for a periodical measurement report based on at least the determined measurement quantity;
- and
- report to a network node the measurement report comprising measurement information selected from the plurality of beam-level measurements based on the sorting of the plurality of beam-level measurements based on at least the determined measurement quantity.
A method performed by a network node for configuring a wireless device for measurement reporting, the method comprising:
- sending the wireless device a reporting configuration specifying a plurality of different types of report quantities to be included in a measurement report, the plurality of different report quantities for use in determining whether to use Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) as a measurement quantity for sorting of beam-level measurements, wherein RSRQ is determined to be used as the measurement quantity, because the reporting configuration does not indicate RSRP as one of the plurality of different types of report quantities;
- configuring the wireless device periodical measurement reporting;
- and
- receiving, from the wireless device, a measurement report comprising measurement information selected from a plurality of beam-level measurements based on a sorting of the plurality of beam-level measurements, the sorting of the plurality of beam-level measurements performed based on the determined measurement quantity.
A network node for configuring a wireless device for measurement reporting, the network node comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to:
- send the wireless device a reporting configuration specifying a plurality of different types of report quantities to be included in a measurement report, the plurality of different report quantities for use in determining whether to use Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) as a measurement quantity for sorting of beam-level measurements, wherein RSRQ is determined to be used as the measurement quantity, because the reporting configuration does not indicate RSRP as one of the plurality of different types of report quantities;
- configure the wireless device periodical measurement reporting;
- and
- receive, from the wireless device, a measurement report comprising measurement information selected from a plurality of beam-level measurements based on a sorting of the plurality of beam-level measurements, the sorting of the plurality of beam-level measurements performed based on the determined measurement quantity.
