Abstract

A terminal is disclosed that includes a receiver that receives a measurement configuration including an information on a number of reports. The terminal also includes a processor that, when reporting of a cell-level measurement result is triggered, controls reporting of a beam-level measurement result based on the information on the number of reports, where the measurement configuration includes a maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports. In other aspects, a radio communication method, a base station, and a system are also disclosed.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A terminal comprising:
a receiver that receives a measurement configuration including an information on a number of reports; and
a processor that, when reporting of a cell-level measurement result is triggered, controls reporting of a beam-level measurement result based on the information on the number of reports,
wherein the information on the number of reports included in the measurement configuration indicates a maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports is a maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports for all cell.

3. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor controls to perform the reporting of the beam-level measurement result irrespective of an event corresponding to a beam-level measurement.

4. A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:
receiving a measurement configuration including an information on a number of reports; and
when reporting of a cell-level measurement result is triggered, controlling reporting of a beam-level measurement result based on the information on the number of reports,
wherein the information on the number of reports included in the measurement configuration indicates a maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports.

5. A base station comprising:
a transmitter that transmits a measurement configuration including an information on a number of reports; and
a processor that, when the base station triggers reporting of a cell-level measurement result, controls receiving of a report of a beam-level measurement result based on the information on the number of reports,
wherein the information on the number of reports included in the measurement configuration indicates a maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports.

6. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein:
the base station comprises:
a transmitter that transmits a measurement configuration including an information on a number of reports; and
a first processor that, when the base station triggers reporting of a cell-level measurement result, controls receiving of a report of a beam-level measurement result based on the information on the number of reports;

the terminal comprises:
a receiver that receives the measurement configuration; and
a second processor that, when reporting of the cell-level measurement result is triggered, controls reporting of the beam-level measurement result based on the information on the number of reports,
wherein the information on the number of reports included in the measurement configuration indicates a maximum number of beam-level measurement result reports.
