Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an electronic device, a communication method and a storage medium in a wireless communication system. There is provided an electronic device on user side, comprising a processing circuitry configured to: based on cell pre-configuration information, measure beams transmitted by a serving cell and at least one non-serving cell; in response to a predefined measurement-based event, send a beam report including at least L1 measurements and identification information for one or more beams of one or more non-serving cells to the serving cell via L1 or L2 signaling; determine an activated beam of the one or more beams; and set a non-serving cell associated with the activated beam as a serving cell.
Claims20
An electronic device on a user side, the electronic device comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- based on cell pre-configuration information, measure beams transmitted by at least one candidate cell;
- in response to a predefined measurement-based event, send a measurement report including at least L1 measurements associated with at least one of the beams and identification information for the at least one of the beams of the at least one candidate cell via L1 or L2 signaling;
- receive, from a serving cell and via L1 or L2 signaling, activation information indicating a specific beam of the at least one candidate cell that the serving cell decides to activate;
- and
- set the at least one candidate cell associated with the specific beam as a set serving cell by:
- switching from the serving cell to the at least one candidate cell determined based on the indication of the specific beam, or
- adding the at least one candidate cell determined based on the indication of the specific beam.
An electronic device on a control side, the electronic device comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- receive, from a user equipment (UE) and via L1 or L2 signaling, a measurement report including at least L1 measurements associated with at least one beam transmitted by at least one candidate cell and identification information for the at least one beam of the at least one candidate cell;
- determine a specific beam of the at least one beam of the at least one candidate cell to activate based on the measurement report;
- and
- set the at least one candidate cell associated with the specific beam as a set serving cell by:
- switching from a serving cell to the at least one candidate cell determined based on the specific beam, or
- adding the at least one candidate cell determined based on the specific beam.
A communication method comprising:
- based on cell pre-configuration information, measuring beams transmitted by at least one candidate cell;
- in response to a predefined measurement-based event, sending a measurement report including at least L1 measurements associated with at least one of the beams and identification information for the at least one of the beams of the at least one candidate cell via L1 or L2 signaling;
- receiving, from a serving cell and via L1 or L2 signaling, activation information indicating a specific beam of the at least one candidate cell that the serving cell decides to activate;
- and
- setting the at least one candidate cell associated with the specific beam as a set serving cell by:
- switching from the serving cell to the at least one candidate cell determined based on the indication of the specific beam, or
- adding the at least one candidate cell determined based on the indication of the specific beam.
A communication method comprising:
- receiving, from a user equipment (UE) and via L1 or L2 signaling, a measurement report including at least L1 measurements associated with at least one beam transmitted by at least one candidate cell and identification information for the at least one beam of the at least one candidate cell;
- determining a specific beam of the at least one beam of the at least one candidate cell to activate based on the measurement report;
- and
- setting the at least one candidate cell associated with the specific beam as a set serving cell by:
- switching from a serving cell to the at least one candidate cell determined based on the specific beam, or
- adding the at least one candidate cell determined based on the specific beam.
