图4为本申请实施例提供的一种测量方法的流程图，如图4所示，该方法可以包括：
步骤101、第一接入网设备向终端设备发送应用层测量配置。相应的，终端设备接收来自第一接入网设备的应用层测量配置。
其中，第一接入网设备为图1中任一接入网设备，如：可以为图1中的接入网设备1，或者，为图1中的接入网设备2，本申请实施例以第一接入网设备为接入网设备1为例进行描述。终端设备可以为图1中与第一接入网设备连接的终端设备，用户可以通过该终端设备使用第一业务。
其中，该应用层测量配置可以用于指示终端设备对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集。该应用层测量配置可以包括第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标。其中，第一业务的类型可以用于唯一标识该第一业务属于哪种类型的业务，以便终端设备根据第一业务的类型获知测量哪个业务的体验质量指标。
其中，第一业务的类型可以包括AR、VR、5GMS中的一个或多个，还可以包括其他新兴业务，不予限制。第一业务的体验质量指标可以参照前述表1或表2中所述。具体的，第一接入网设备可以通过下述图8所示方法从其他网元获取第一业务的体验质量指标。
其中，第一业务的类型也可以为第一业务的标识。第一业务的标识可以唯一标识第一业务的类型。其中，第一业务的标识可以为数字或者字符，也可以为数字与字符的组合等，不予限制。例如，在第一业务包括AR时，AR的标识可以为1；在第一业务包括VR时，VR的标识可以为2；在第一业务包括5GMS时，5GMS的标识可以为3。
一种可能的实现方式中，第一接入网设备通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)消息向终端设备发送应用层测量配置，如：应用层测量配置可以承载于RRC消息中发送给终端设备。
其中，RRC消息可以为RRC连接重配置消息或RRC连接恢复消息，RRC连接重配置消息可以简称为RRC重配置消息，RRC连接恢复消息可以简称为RRC恢复消息。
需要说明的是，第一接入网设备也可以通过其他消息向终端设备发送应用层测量配置，如：通过测量配置应用层(MeasConfigAppLayer)消息向终端设备发送等，不 予限制。
步骤102、终端设备根据应用层测量配置对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集，得到应用层测量报告。
应用层测量报告可以包括第一业务的类型以及第一业务的体验质量指标对应的值。
例如，当业务1的体验质量指标为：体验质量指标1，体验质量指标2，体验质量指标3时，其中，业务1的体验质量指标1的数值为A1，业务1的体验质量指标2的数值为A2，业务1的体验质量指标3的数值为A3。该应用层测量报告可以包括业务1{体验质量指标1＝A1，体验质量指标2＝A2，体验质量指标3＝A3}。
示例性的，终端设备根据应用层测量配置对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集包括：
当体验质量指标为终端设备的性能参数，例如为表1中序号为1-24的体验质量指标以及表2中的体验质量指标时，终端设备可以从本地存储中获取预先配置的终端设备的性能参数，并将获取到的性能参数携带在应用层测量报告中。
当体验质量指标为用户对终端设备的使用性能的评价指标，例如为表1中序号为25-32的体验质量指标时，终端设备可以通过与用户的人机交互方式获取用户打分，该人机交互方式可以为音频交互、用户界面(user interface，UI)界面交互等。
以UI界面为例，如图5所示，图5示出了终端设备的一种UI界面，包括显示框和输入框。其中，显示框用于显示用户对终端设备的使用性能的评分，输入框用于用户输入对终端设备的使用性能的评分，该评分用于表示用户通过终端设备使用第一业务时的体验情况。响应于用户的输入操作，终端设备可以获取到用户对终端设备的使用性能的评分。
进一步的，终端设备可以周期性的获取用户对终端设备的使用性能的评分，对多个评分进行组合处理得到用户对终端设备的使用性能的最终评分，以保证体验质量指标的值的时效性和准确性。其中，组合处理可以包括加权处理或者求平均处理或者取最大评分值或者最小评分值等等，不予限制。
例如，如图5所示，以体验质量指标为“视频质量”为例，终端设备可以周期性地向用户显示图5所示UI界面，周期性地获取一段时间内用户对视频质量的评分，并将该时间段内的评分的平均值作为该视频质量的值。
步骤103、终端设备向第一接入网设备发送应用层测量报告。相应的，第一接入网设备接收来自终端设备的应用层测量报告。
一种可能的实现方式中，终端设备通过专有消息向第一接入网设备发送应用层测量报告，例如，该专有消息为测量报告应用层(MeasReportAppLayer)消息。
终端设备也可以通过RRC消息向第一接入网设备发送应用层测量报告。例如，终端设备可以通过RRC连接重配置完成消息(也可称为RRC重配置完成消息)或者RRC连接恢复完成消息(也可称为RRC恢复完成消息)将应用层测量报告发送给第一接入网设备。
本申请实施例提供的测量方法，对于终端设备的VR、AR、5GMS等新兴业务，接入网设备通过向终端设备发送用于指示终端设备对该新兴业务进行体验质量测量采集的应用层测量配置，以使得终端设备根据应用层测量配置对新兴业务的相关体验质量指标进行测量，得到新兴业务类型的应用层测量报告，并向接入网设备发送该应用层测量报告。 接入网设备接收到应用层测量报告之后，可以根据应用层测量报告中的体验质量指标对应的值，对用于传输业务的无线网络进行网络优化，以使得优化后的无线网络能够满足业务的传输需求，提高用户使用第一业务时的用户体验。
基于图4的技术方案，为了提高终端设备测量的准确性，如图6所示，在步骤101之前，本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括：
步骤104、第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集。
其中，终端设备支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集是指终端设备可以根据应用层测量配置，对第一业务的相关体验质量指标进行测量，获取该第一业务的体验质量指标对应的值。
一种可能的实现方式中，第一接入网设备获取终端设备的能力信息，根据该能力信息确定终端设备支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集。
其中，该能力信息可以包括用于指示终端设备支持体验质量测量采集的业务的指示信息，该指示信息可以用于指示终端设备支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集。
一种示例，指示信息包括M个标志位，M个标志位中的一个标志位与M个业务中的一个业务对应，M个业务包括第一业务。当指示信息包括一个标志位时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备确定支持对与一个标志位对应的业务进行体验质量测量采集；当指示信息不包括一个标志位时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备不支持对与一个标志位对应的业务进行体验质量测量采集。其中，M为大于或者等于1的整数。
其中，标志位可以为符号或者数字，也可以为符号与数字的组合等，不予限制。
例如，AR对应的标志位为A，VR对应的标志位为V，5GMS对应的标志位为M。当指示信息包括“A”时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对AR进行体验质量测量采集；当指示信息不包括“A”时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备不支持对AR进行体验质量测量采集。当指示信息包括“V”时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对VR进行体验质量测量采集；当指示信息不包括“V”时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备不支持对VR进行体验质量测量采集。当指示信息包括“M”时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对5GMS进行体验质量测量采集；当指示信息不包括“M”时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备不支持对5GMS进行体验质量测量采集。
又一种示例，指示信息包括K个比特。K个比特中的一个比特与K种业务中的一个业务对应。当一个比特的取值为T1时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对与一个比特对应的业务进行体验质量测量采集；当一个比特的取值为T2时或者不为T1时，一接入网设备确定终端设备不支持对与一个比特对应的业务进行体验质量测量采集；K为大于或者等于1的整数，T1和T2为整数，T1与T2不相同。
其中，T1、T2可以为二进制比特数“0”、“1”或者二进制比特数“1”、“0”，还可以为其他符号或者数字等，不予限制。
例如，以指示信息包括3个二进制比特，3个二进制比特与5GMS、VR、AR对应，二进制比特为“0”指示终端设备不支持对该二进制比特对应的业务进行体验质量测量采集，二进制比特为“1”指示终端设备支持对该二进制比特对应的业务进行体验质量测量采集为例。当指示信息包括001时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对AR进行体验质量测量采集；当指示信息包括010时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对VR进行体验 质量测量采集；当指示信息包括100时，第一接入网设备确定终端设备支持对5GMS进行体验质量测量采集。
又一种示例，指示信息可以为明文指示。例如，指示信息如下所示：
qoe-VR-MeasReport         ENUMERATED{supported}
//体验质量-VR-测量报告    列举{支持}；
qoe-5GMS-MeasReport       ENUMERATED{supported}
//体验质量-5GMS-测量报告  列举{支持}；
该指示信息用于表示终端设备支持对VR和5GMS进行体验质量测量采集。
一种可能的实现方式中，终端设备可以主动向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。
例如，当终端设备与第一接入网设备建立通信连接后，终端设备主动向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。其中，终端设备可以通过RRC消息向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。其中，RRC消息可以是终端设备能力信息(UECapabilityInformation)消息或者切换准备信息(HandoverPreparationInformation)消息。终端设备也可以通过其他消息向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息，不予限制。
进一步的，终端设备可以周期性的向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。或者，终端设备还可以随机向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息，不予限制。
如此，终端设备向第一接入网设备发送终端设备的能力信息，避免在终端设备不支持/不具备对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集的情况下，仍然接收到来自第一接入网设备的应用层测量配置带来的问题，提高终端设备对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集的准确性。
又一种可能的实现方式中，第一接入网设备还通过以下方式1～方式3中任一方式获取终端设备的能力信息：
方式1、在终端设备与第一接入网设备通信连接的情况下，第一接入网设备可以通过与终端设备的交互获取终端设备的能力信息。
示例性的，请参阅图7，该方式1可以通过以下步骤实现。
步骤1041、第一接入网设备向终端设备发送第一查询信息。相应的，终端设备接收来自第一接入网设备的第一查询信息。
其中，第一查询信息可以用于获取终端设备的能力信息。
步骤1042、终端设备根据第一查询信息，生成第一查询结果。
其中，该第一查询结果可以包括终端设备的能力信息。该能力信息的描述可参照上述描述，不予赘述。
步骤1043、终端设备向第一接入网设备发送第一查询结果。相应的，第一接入网设备接收来自终端设备的第一查询结果。
方式2、在第二接入网设备具有终端设备的能力信息的情况下，第一接入网设备通过与第二接入网设备的交互获取终端设备的能力信息。
其中，第二接入网设备可以为图1所示系统中的接入网设备2。
示例性的，请参阅图7，该方式2可以通过以下步骤实现。
步骤1044、第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备发送第二查询信息。相应的，第二接入网设备接收来自接入网设备的第二查询信息。
其中，第二查询信息用于获取终端设备的能力信息。
步骤1045、第二接入网设备根据第二查询信息，生成第二查询结果。
其中，第二查询结果与第一查询结果可以为相同的查询结果，此处不再赘述。
步骤1046、第二接入网设备向第一接入网设备发送第二查询结果。相应的，第一接入网设备接收来自第二接入网设备的第二查询结果。
方式3、在核心网设备具有终端设备的能力信息的情况下，第一接入网设备通过与核心网设备的交互获取终端设备的能力信息。
示例性的，请参阅图7，该方式3可以通过以下步骤实现：
步骤1047、第一接入网设备向核心网设备发送第三查询信息。相应的，核心网设备接收来自接入网设备的第三查询信息。
其中，第三查询信息用于获取终端设备的能力信息。
步骤1048、核心网设备根据第三查询信息，生成第三查询结果。
其中，第三查询结果与第一查询结果可以为相同的查询结果，此处不再赘述。
步骤1049、核心网设备向第一接入网设备发送第三查询结果。相应的，第一接入网设备接收来自核心网设备的第三查询结果。
如此，第一接入网设备可以确定终端设备支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集的情况下，向终端设备发送应用层测量配置；在确定终端设备不支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集的情况下，第一接入网设备不向终端设备发送应用层测量配置，提高终端设备体验质量测量采集的准确性。例如，若第一接入网设备确定终端设备对支持5GMS进行体验质量测量采集，则第一接入网设备向终端设备发送包括5GMS的体验质量指标的应用层测量配置。若第一接入网设备不执行步骤104，而直接执行步骤101向终端设备发送应用层测量配置，该应用层测量配置中包括AR的体验质量指标和5GMS的体验质量指标。假设终端设备只支持对5GMS进行体验质量测量采集，也就是说，该应用层测量配置中AR的体验质量指标为多余的体验质量指标。这样，终端设备还需要对该应用层测量配置中携带的AR的体验质量指标进行体验质量测量采集，但是，由于该终端设备不支持对AR进行体验质量测量采集，因此，导致终端设备进行体验质量测量采集的准确率降低。
一种可能的实施例中，基于图4的技术方案，如图8所示，在步骤101之前，本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括：
步骤105、第一接入网设备获取第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标。
其中，一种可能的实现中，第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标可以由第二接入网设备或者核心网设备发送给第一接入网设备，或者，又一种可能的实现中，第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标可以由控制设备发送给第一接入网设备。
其中，控制设备也可以称为管理系统，该管理系统可以是操作管理维护(operation administration and maintenance，OAM)系统或者网络管理系统。控制设备可以用于对第一接入网设备进行管理，例如，工作人员可以通过控制设备为第一接入网设备安装程序，或者，通过控制设备为第一接入网设备配置业务类型和体验质量指标等。
下面对上述第一接入网设备获取第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标的两种可能的实现方式的具体实现过程进行说明：
一、在第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标由第二接入网设备或核心网设备发送给第一接入网设备。
一种示例中，在应用层测量配置由第二接入网设备发送给第一接入网设备的情况下，应用层测量配置可以承载在回收终端设备上下文响应(retrieve UE context response)消息、切换请求(handover request)消息、跟踪开始(trace start)消息、次要节点增加请求(s-node addition request，或者，SGNB addition request)消息中的任一个。
其中，回收终端设备上下文响应消息用于传递终端设备的上下文给第一接入网设备，该回收终端设备上下文响应消息中包含有应用层测量配置。切换请求消息用于请求准备好切换的资源，该切换请求消息中包含有应用层测量配置。跟踪开始消息用于发起对终端设备的跟踪记录，该跟踪开始消息中包含有应用层测量配置。次要节点增加请求消息用于请求准备好终端设备双连接操作的资源，该次要节点增加请求消息中包含有终端设备应用层测量配置。
又一种示例中，在应用层测量配置由核心网设备发送给第一接入网设备的情况下，应用层测量配置可以承载在初始上下文建立请求(initial context setup request)消息、切换请求(handover request)消息、跟踪开始(trace start)消息中的任一个。
其中，初始上下文建立请求消息用于请求建立终端设备的上下文，该初始上下文建立请求消息中包含有应用层测量配置。切换请求消息以及跟踪开始消息可以参照上述描述，此处不再赘述。
二、在第一业务的体验质量指标由控制设备发送给第一接入网设备的情况下，控制设备可以具有如图3所示的存储器。该存储器具有第一业务的类型以及第一业务的体验质量指标的对应关系。示例性的，该对应关系可以如表3。在这情况下，控制设备可以向第一接入网设备发送第一业务的类型和第一业务的体验质量指标。
表3
第一业务的类型 体验质量指标
AR 详见表1
VR 详见表1
5GMS 详见表2
需要说明的是，表3中的体验质量指标以及体验质量指标的描述具体可以参见表1以及表2。例如，第一业务的类型包括AR或VR时，第一业务的体验质量指标可以为表1中的体验质量指标；第一业务的类型包括5GMS时，第一业务的体验质量指标可以为表2中的体验质量指标。
需要说明的是，本申请实施例中，第二接入网设备或者核心网设备向第一接入网设备发送第一业务的类型以及第一业务的体验质量指标之前，第二接入网设备或者核心网设备可以确定终端设备支持对第一业务进行体验质量测量采集。
一种示例中，第一接入网设备向第二接入网设备或者核心网设备主动发送终端设备的能力信息，例如，第一接入网设备周期性地向第二接入网设备或者核心网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。
又一种示例中，第一接入网设备也可以基于第二接入网设备或者核心网设备的需求向第二接入网设备或者核心网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。例如，第二接入网设备或者核心网设备向第一接入网设备发送第四查询信息，第四查询信息用于获取终端设备的能力信息。第一接入网设备接收到来自第二接入网设备或者核心网设备的第四查询信息后，向第二接入网设备或者核心网设备发送终端设备的能力信息。
一种可能的实施例中，当本申请实施例提供的测量方法应用于图2所示的5G通信系统的情况下，步骤101和步骤103中的第一接入网设备可以替换为CU。也即是说，步骤101可以为：CU向终端设备发送应用层测量配置；步骤103可以为：CU接收来自终端设备的应用层测量报告。在这种情况下，本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括步骤106：CU向DU发送应用层测量报告。
或者，步骤101和步骤103的第一接入网设备可以替换为CU-CP。也即是说，步骤101可以为：CU-CP向终端设备发送应用层测量配置；步骤103可以为：CU-CP接收来自终端设备的应用层测量报告。在这种情况下，本申请实施例提供的测量方法还可以包括步骤107：CU-CP向DU发送应用层测量报告。或者，步骤108：CU-CP向CU-UP发送应用层测量报告。
一种可能的实施例中，第一接入网设备(或者第一接入网设备的DU或CU-UP)在接收到来自终端设备的应用层测量报告后，可以根据该应用层测量报告确定是否需要对用于传输AR、VR或5GMS等业务的无线网络进行优化。例如，第一接入网设备可以根据应用层测量报告中体验质量指标对应的值确定是否对用于传输AR、VR或5GMS等业务的无线网络进行优化，其中，在体验质量指标对应的值低于阈值的情况下，第一接入网设备确定需要对用于传输AR、VR或5GMS等业务的无线网络进行优化。其中，阈值可以预先设置，不予限制。
在确定需要对用于传输AR、VR或5GMS等业务的无线网络进行优化的情况下，第一接入网设备可以通过以下方式中一种或多种对用于传输AR、VR或5GMS等业务的无线网络进行优化：(1)、缓存资源的分配；(2)、需要进行数据报文调度的无线承载的选择；(3)、功率等级的管理；(4)、被使用的特定资源块的管理。
本申请实施例中，第一接入网设备还可以在接收到来自终端设备的应用层测量报告后，可以向第二接入网络设备发送该应用层测量报告，用于第二接入网设备根据该应用层测量报告对用于传输第一业务的无线网络进行优化。
下面以第一业务为VR，体验质量指标为主观体验评分，第一接入网设备对用于传输VR的无线网络进行优化为例对上述方式进行说明。
1、当VR的主观体验评分小于第一阈值(例如，主观体验评分对应的最高值为10，第一阈值可以为6)时，第一接入网设备可以为VR分配第一预设数量的缓存资源，其中，第一预设数量大于预先为VR配置的缓存资源的数量。其中，第一阈值可以预先设置，不予限制。预先为VR配置的缓存资源为主观体验评分大于或等于第一阈值时第一接入网设备为VR分配的缓存资源。
