     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The technical solutions in embodiments of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in a clear and complete manner in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the following embodiments are merely a part of, rather than all of, the embodiments of the present disclosure, and based on these embodiments, a person skilled in the art may obtain the other embodiments, which also fall within the scope of the present disclosure. 
     Referring to  FIG.  1   ,  FIG.  1    is a schematic diagram of a reference signal measurement system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG.  1   , the reference signal measurement system includes a user terminal  11  and a base station  12 . The user terminal  11  may be a user equipment (UE), such as a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a mobile Internet device (MID), a wearable device or other terminal device. It should be noted that the specific type of the user terminal  11  is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure. The base station  12  may be a base station in a 5G network (such as gNB, 5G NR NB). The base station  12  may also be a base station in a 4G network (such as eNB, eLTE NB). It should be noted that the specific type of the base station  12  is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     Referring to  FIG.  2   ,  FIG.  2    is a flowchart of a reference signal measurement method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a user terminal. As shown in  FIG.  2   , the method includes the following steps. 
     Step  201 : obtaining configuration information, where the configuration information is configured to configure a specific reference signal. 
     The obtaining configuration information may include: receiving, by the user terminal, configuration information transmitted by a base station, when the user terminal transits from a connected state to an idle state or an inactive state; or, receiving, by the user terminal, configuration information transmitted by a base station, when the terminal is in an connected state; or, receiving, by the user terminal, configuration information transmitted by a base station, during a random access process; or, obtaining, by the user terminal, pre-stored configuration information, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     The foregoing configuration information configured to configure a specific reference signal may means that the configuration information is configured to configure one or more specific reference signals for the user terminal in an idle state or an inactive state. The specific reference signal may include a UE specific reference signal, or may include a cell specific reference signal. The UE specific reference signal may be a reference signal corresponding to the user terminal, or, a reference signal corresponding to a group in which the user terminal is located. Different user terminals may correspond to different specific reference signals, or different specific reference signals corresponding to different user terminal groups. The cell specific reference signal may be a reference signal corresponding to a cell. 
     Step  202 : in an idle state or an inactive state, measuring the specific reference signal according to the configuration information. 
     The measuring the specific reference signal according to the configuration information may include: measuring the specific reference signal configured by the configuration information to obtain a corresponding measurement result. 
     Through the above steps, the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state can measure the specific reference signal, so that the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state can measure more reference signals. In this way, the user terminal can increase the speed at which the user terminal resumes the connection. This is because, in the current communication system, the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state only measures non-specific SSB, and the specific reference signal is measured by the user terminal in the connected state. Thus, the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state can complete the task of measuring the specific reference signal that is originally performed in the connected state, thereby increasing the speed at which the user terminal resumes the connection. 
     The above method may be applied to a 5G system, but is not limited thereto. As long as substantially the same functions can be realized, the above method may be applied to other communication systems, such as a 4G system, a 6G system or communication system using system information blocks. 
     In this way, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the configuration information is obtained, where the configuration information is configured to configure the specific reference signal; the specific reference signal is measured by the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state according to the configuration information. Since the specific reference signal is measured by the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state, the speed at which the user terminal resumes the connection can be increased as compared with that the user terminal in the idle state or inactive state measures only non-specific SSB in the related art. 
     Referring to  FIG.  3   ,  FIG.  3    is another flowchart of a reference signal measurement method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a user terminal. As shown in  FIG.  3   , the method includes the following steps. 
     Step  301 : obtaining configuration information, where the configuration information is configured to configure a specific reference signal. 
     The configuration information may configure a specific reference signal that needs to be measured for a local cell, and may also configure a specific reference signal that needs to be measured for a neighboring cell. For example, the specific reference signal may include at least one of the following: 
     a specific reference signal configured for a local cell and a specific reference signal configured for a neighboring cell; 
     where the specific reference signal configured for the local cell includes at least one of a UE specific reference signal configured for the local cell and a cell specific reference signal configured for the local cell; 
     the specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell includes at least one of a UE specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell and a cell specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell. 
     In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the local cell may refer to a cell on which a user terminal in an idle state camps, a cell to which a user terminal in a connected state is connected, or a cell to which a user terminal in an inactive state is connected when it transits from the connected state to the inactive state. 
     The neighboring cell may refer to at least one of the following: a cell adjacent to the local cell, a cell in a neighboring cell list carried in system information (SI) of the local cell, a cell in a cell list carried in the SI of the local cell, other cell configured by the local cell for the user terminal to measure, a cell in which the user terminal reads system information of non-local cell, and a cell in which the user terminal reads a synchronization signal of non-local cell. 
     In addition, the specific reference signal configured for the local cell and the specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell may be the same, or different, or partially the same, and the like, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     The configuration information may configure a specific reference signal for at least one of the local cell and the neighboring cell, thus the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state may measure more reference signals, thereby improving measurement performance of the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state, and then further increasing the speed at which the user terminal resumes the connection. 
     In addition, in one embodiment, the UE specific reference signal may include at least one of the following: 
     a UE specific SSB, a UE specific channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), a UE specific demodulation reference signal (DMRS), and other UE specific reference signals. 
     The other specific reference signals may be specific reference signals other than the specific SSB, the specific CSI-RS and the specific DMRS, for example, a newly defined specific reference signal in the 5G system. 
     Of course, the cell specific reference signal may also include at least one of a cell specific SSB, a cell specific CSI-RS, a cell specific DMRS, and other cell specific reference signals. 
     The specific SSB, the specific CSI-RS, the specific DMRS and other specific reference signals can allow the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state to measure more reference signals, and the specific SSB, the specific CSI-RS and the specific DMRS can reflect path loss information, and thus, the measurement result can be used as a reference for quick resume, which is convenient for the user terminal to quickly resume the connection. 
     In an optional implementation manner, the obtaining configuration information includes at least one of the following: 
     receiving configuration information that is transmitted by a base station of a local cell through a radio resource control (RRC) message; 
     receiving configuration information that is transmitted by the base station of the local cell by a broadcast message; and 
     receiving configuration information that is transmitted by a base station of a neighboring cell by a broadcast message. 
     The configuration information transmitted through the RRC message and the broadcast message of the local cell may be configured to configure a specific reference signal for the local cell, or configure a specific reference signal for the neighboring cell, or may be configured to configure a specific reference signal for the local cell as well as configure a specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. The configuration information transmitted through the broadcast message of the neighboring cell may be configured to configure a specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. 
     In addition, an RRC message may be used to configure a specific reference signal for the local cell, and another RRC message may be used to configure a specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. The RRC message for configuring the specific reference signal for the neighboring cell may carry the above configuration information in a container included in the RRC message. The base station of the local cell issues the RRC message of the local cell or transparently transmits the RRC message of the neighboring cell, and thus the overhead of the user terminal for receiving downlink messages can be saved, and the user terminal can receive in the local cell the configuration information for configuring the specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. Certainly, an identical RRC message may be configured to configure the specific reference signal for the local cell as well as configure the specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. 
     Similarly, a broadcast message may be used to configure a specific reference signal for the local cell, and another broadcast message may be used to configure a specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. In this way, the user terminal can obtain the configuration information for configuring the specific reference signal for the neighboring cell by reading the broadcast message of the local cell. 
     In this implementation manner, since the configuration information may be transmitted to the user terminal through the RRC message or the broadcast message, the flexibility of the communication system can be improved. Further, a specific reference signal can be configured for the neighboring cell in the local cell, thereby reducing the movement of the user terminal and then saving power consumption of the user terminal. 
     Optionally, the foregoing RRC message may include: 
     a release message, a suspend message, a reconfiguration message, a configuration message in a connected state, a downlink message in random access channel (RACH) procedure, or a dedicated RRC message scrambled by radio network temporary identifier (RNTI). 
     For example, when the user terminal is released from the connected state to the idle state or the inactive state, the base station may use a release message or a suspend message to carry the configuration information, thereby avoiding generation of an additional message and then saving transmission resources. 
     For another example, the base station may configure the configuration information to the user terminal through a reconfiguration message. Further, when the user terminal performs a resume, a reconfiguration message is transmitted to the user terminal. 
     For another example, after the user terminal accesses the network, the base station configures for the user terminal a specific reference signal, which is still valid after the user terminal is released from the connected state to the idle state or the inactive state, thereby avoiding transmitting configuration messages to the user terminal for multiple times and then saving transmission resources. 
     For another example, the base station may transmit a reconfiguration message to the user terminal through msg.2, msg.4 or a RACH complete message in the RACH procedure, thereby avoiding generation of an additional message and then saving transmission resources. 
     In addition, the above dedicated RRC message scrambled by the RNTI may be an RRC message other than the RRC message listed above. The dedicated RRC message scrambled by the RNTI may be a dedicated RRC message scrambled by a cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI), a group radio network temporary identifier (Group RNTI) or an inactive radio network temporary identifier (I-RNTI). 
     In addition, the foregoing broadcast message may include an identifier of the user terminal or an identifier of a group in which the user terminal is located. In this way, the user terminal may determine that the configuration information is transmitted to the user terminal through the identifier, thereby preventing an error from occurring. 
     As an optional implementation manner, the obtaining configuration information includes: 
     in an inactive state, obtaining configuration information that is received by the user terminal in a connected state; or, 
     in an idle state, obtaining configuration information that is received by the user terminal in the inactive state or the connected state. 
     In this implementation manner, the configuration information that is received by the user terminal in the connected state, can be directly used by the user terminal in the inactive state. For example, a UE specific reference signal and a cell specific reference signal, which are configured for the user terminal in the connected state, can be directly used by the user terminal in the inactive state, thereby avoiding multiple transmissions of configuration information and then saving transmission resources and power consumption. 
     In this implementation manner, the configuration information that is received by the user terminal in the inactive state or the connected state, can be directly used by the user terminal in the idle state. For example, a UE specific reference signal and a cell specific reference signal, which are configured for the user terminal in the inactive state or the connected state, can be directly used by the user terminal in the idle state, thereby avoiding multiple transmissions of configuration information and then saving transmission resources and power consumption. 
     Step  302 : in an idle state or an inactive state, measuring the specific reference signal according to the configuration information. 
     The measuring the specific reference signal may include: measuring the specific reference signal in the local cell, for example, measuring in the local cell a specific reference signal configured for the local cell, or measuring in the local cell a specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell, or measuring in the neighboring cell a specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell. In addition, the measuring the specific reference signal may include performing measurement at a specific resource location, for example, measuring a specific reference signal at a specific time domain location, frequency domain location or spatial domain location. The resource locations may be configured through the foregoing configuration information, or may be preset by the user terminal, or may be pre-configured by the base station to the user terminal. 
     In addition, the measuring the specific reference signal may include measuring measurement performance of the specific reference signal, such as signal strength, signal quality, and received signal power, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     As an optional implementation manner, the configuration information includes at least one of configuration information of the local cell and configuration information of the neighboring cell. 
     In the idle state or the inactive state, measuring the specific reference signal according to the configuration information, includes at least one of the following: 
     when the configuration information of the local cell exists, in the idle state or the inactive state, measuring in the local cell a specific reference signal configured by the configuration information of the local cell; 
     when the configuration information of the neighboring cell exists, in the idle state or the inactive state, measuring in the neighboring cell a specific reference signal configured by the configuration information of the neighboring cell; 
     when the configuration information of the local cell and the configuration information of the neighboring cell exist and the configuration information of the neighboring cell includes a target specific reference signal that is not in the configuration information of the local cell, measuring in the local cell the target specific reference signal; 
     when the configuration information of the neighboring cell exists but the configuration information of the local cell does not exist, measuring in the local cell a specific reference signal configured by the configuration information of the neighboring cell. 
     The configuration information of the local cell may be configured to configure a specific reference signal for the local cell. The configuration information of the neighboring cell may be configured to configure a specific reference signal for the neighboring cell. 
     In this implementation manner, for the neighboring cell, the reference signal configured for the neighboring cell can be measured, so that which reference signal is configured, which reference signal is measured. For the local cell, the reference signal configured for the local cell and the reference signal configured for the neighboring cell in addition to the reference signal configured for the local cell can be measured. In this way, which reference signal is configured for the local cell, which reference signal is measured; and which reference signal is configured for the neighbor cell, which reference signal is measured in the local cell; thereby enriching the measurement result of the local cell, which is convenient for the user terminal to quickly resume the connection. 
     Optionally, in this implementation manner, the obtaining configuration information includes: 
     obtaining measurement object information, where the measurement object information includes the configuration information. 
     The configuration information included in the measurement target information may include at least one of configuration information of the local cell and configuration information of the neighboring cell. 
     In this implementation manner, through the measurement object information, the configuration information may be obtained, for example, at least one of configuration information of the local cell and configuration information of the neighboring cell can be obtained. In this way, the user terminal can more clearly determine reference signals to be measured in the local cell and neighboring cells. Of course, the above measurement object information may also be referred to as a measurement object. Of course, the configuration information of the local cell and the configuration information of the neighboring cell may not be determined by the measurement object information. For example, the configuration information transmitted by the base station directly indicates a specific reference signal configured for the local cell and/or a specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell. 
     As an optional implementation manner, the foregoing configuration information is further configured to configure measurement performance. 
     In the idle state or the inactive state, measuring the specific reference signal according to the configuration information includes: 
     determining measurement performance of at least one of the local cell and the neighboring cell according to the configuration information; and in the idle state or the inactive state, measuring measurement performance of the specific reference signal in at least one of the neighboring cell and the local cell. 
     In this implementation manner, the base station can configure the measurement performance for the specific reference signal. In this way, the user terminal only needs to measure a corresponding measurement performance for the specific reference signal, thereby eliminating the need to measure all measurement performance and then saving power consumption of the user terminal. 
     For example, the measurement performance may include at least one of: reference signal receiving power (RSRP), reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ), signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR), received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and channel quality indicator (CQI). 
     The measurement performances of the local cell and the neighboring cell may be the same, or different, or partially the same. In addition, the measurement performances of different specific reference signals configured for an identical cell may be the same or different. For example, the measurement performance of the specific SSB configured for the local cell includes RSRP and CQI, and the measurement performance of the specific CSI-RS configured for the local cell includes RSRQ and SINR, and the measurement performance of the specific DMRS configured for the neighboring cell includes CQI and SINR, and the like, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     Through the above measurement performance, the measurement result of the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state can be more abundant, which is convenient for the user terminal to quickly resume the connection. 
     Of course, the foregoing configuration information may also not be configured with the measurement performance. For example, in the idle state or the inactive state, measuring the specific reference signal according to the configuration information may include: 
     in the idle state or the inactive state, measuring measurement performance of the specific reference signal in at least one of the neighboring cell and the local cell. 
     The measurement performance herein may be at least one of RSRP, RSRQ, SINR, RSSI, and CQI. The measurement performances of the local cell and the neighboring cell may be the same, or different, or partially the same. In addition, measurement performances of different specific reference signals configured to an identical cell may also be the same or different. 
     It should be noted that measuring the specific reference signal of the local cell may include measuring a measurement performance of the specific reference signal configured for the local cell, and may further include measuring a measurement performance of the specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell. Therefore, which measurement performance is configured for the cell, which measurement performance is measured; and which measurement performance is configured for the neighboring cell, which measurement performance is measured in the local cell. For example, the measurement performance configured by the specific SSB for the local cell includes RSRP and RSRQ, and the measurement performance configured by the specific SSB for the neighboring cell includes RSSI and CQI, then the user terminal can measure the RSRP, RSRQ, RSSI and CQI of the specific SSB when the user terminal measures the specific SSB in the local cell, thereby improving the measurement performance of the local cell. 
     For the measurement performance of the neighboring cell, the measurement performance configured for the neighboring cell is measured. In this way, for the measurement performance of the neighboring cell, which measurement performance is configured, which measurement performance is measured. 
     Step  303 : in the idle state or the inactive state, performing cell selection or reselection according to a measurement result of the measuring. 
     The performing cell selection or reselection according to a measurement result of the measuring, may include: determining priorities of cells according to the measurement result of the measuring the specific reference signal, and then performing cell selection or reselection. It should be noted that the implementation manner of cell selection or reselection is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     Through the step  303 , cell selection or reselection can be performed according to the measurement result of the measuring. In this way, the accuracy and efficiency of cell selection or reselection can be improved as compared to measuring only the non-specific SSB. 
     Of course, in one embodiment, the step  303  is optional. The step  303  may be not performed, instead, the measurement result of the measuring is reported in the connected state. For example, after the step  302 , the method may further include: 
     initiating a RACH procedure according to the measurement result of the measuring to enter a connected state, and reporting the measurement result of the measuring; or, 
     initiating a RACH procedure according to a target event to enter a connected state, and reporting the measurement result of the measuring. 
     The initiating a RACH procedure according to the measurement result of the measuring to enter a connected state, may be that after the user terminal obtains the foregoing measurement result, the user terminal actively initiates the RACH to enter the connected state, and reports the measurement result. This enables the user terminal to quickly initiate RACH and quickly resume the connection. 
     The target event may be that after the measurement result is obtained, when there is RACH for subsequent other event (or called purpose) to enter the connected state, the measurement result is reported. 
     In this implementation manner, after entering the connected state, the foregoing measurement result is reported, so that the measurement result is used for fast connection, or fast activation of the cell, or fast resume or fast recovery, so that the user terminal quickly resumes the connection. 
     In this embodiment, multiple optional implementation manners are added on the basis of the embodiment shown in  FIG.  2   , and beneficial effects such as fast recovery of connection and saving transmission resources and power consumption can be realized. 
     Referring to  FIG.  4   ,  FIG.  4    is another flowchart of a reference signal measurement method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is applied to a base station. As shown in  FIG.  4   , the method includes the following steps. 
     Step  401 : generating configuration information, where the configuration information is configured to configure a specific reference signal. 
     Step  402 : transmitting the configuration information to the user terminal, so that the user terminal in an idle state or an inactive state measures the specific reference signal according to the configuration information. 
     Optionally, the specific reference signal includes at least one of the following: a specific reference signal configured for a local cell and a specific reference signal configured for a neighboring cell. 
     The specific reference signal configured for the local cell includes at least one of a UE specific reference signal configured for the local cell and a cell specific reference signal configured for the local cell. 
     The specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell includes at least one of a UE specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell and a cell specific reference signal configured for the neighboring cell. 
     Optionally, the UE specific reference signal includes at least one of the following: 
     a UE specific SSB, a UE specific channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), a UE specific demodulation reference signal (DMRS), and other UE specific reference signals. 
     Optionally, the transmitting the configuration information to the user terminal, includes at least one of the following: 
     transmitting the configuration information to the user terminal through an RRC message; 
     transmitting the configuration information to the user terminal through a broadcast message. 
     Optionally, the RRC message may include: 
     a release message, a suspend message, a reconfiguration message, a configuration message in a connected state, a downlink message in random access channel (RACH) procedure, or a dedicated RRC message scrambled by radio network temporary identifier (RNTI); or, 
     the broadcast message may include an identifier of the user terminal or an identifier of a group in which the user terminal is located. 
     Optionally, the configuration information is further configured to configure measurement performance, so that the user terminal determines measurement performance of at least one of the local cell and the neighboring cell according to the configuration information, and the user terminal in the idle state or the inactive state measures the measurement performance of the specific reference signal in at least one of the neighboring cell and the local cell.
