Measurement control method, user equipment, control node, and system

An apparatus, comprising a processor coupled with a non-transitory storage medium storing executable instructions;

• wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• receive a first event of a cell reported by a terminal;
• and
• determine, according to measurement configuration information and the first event, whether to send an active set update message to the terminal, wherein the measurement configuration information comprises one of a list of first-type cells, a type of first-type cells, a list of second-type cells, a type of second-type cells, hierarchical cell structure (HCS) priorities, a frequency of first-type cells, and a dedicated parameter for evaluating an event trigger threshold, wherein the first event of the cell is that one of signal quality and signal strength of the cell is lower than a predetermined criterion;
• and
• skip, when a first-type cell and a second-type cell that are indicated by the measurement configuration information simultaneously exist in an active set of the terminal, sending a first active set update message for removing the first-type cell.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon, a computer program comprising at least one code section for distributing data, the at least one code section being executable by a terminal for causing the terminal to perform acts of:

• receiving measurement configuration information sent by a control node, wherein the measurement configuration information comprises one of a list of first-type cells, a type of first-type cells, a list of second-type cells, a type of second-type cells, hierarchical cell structure (HCS) priorities, a frequency of first-type cells, and a dedicated parameter for evaluating an event trigger threshold;
• detecting one of cell signal quality and signal strength of a cell;
• determining, according to the measurement configuration information and one of the cell signal quality and signal strength respectively, whether to report an event or a measurement result of the cell to the control node;
• and
• skipping, when a first-type cell and a second-type cell that are indicated by the measurement configuration information simultaneously exist in an active set, reporting a first event of the first-type cell, wherein the first event of the first-type cell is that signal quality or signal strength of the first-type cell is lower than a predetermined criterion.
