Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a method, a terminal device and a network device for configuring resources. Background Art

[0002] In the long term evolution (LTE) system, frequency hopping is introduced for uplink transmission (for example, transmission of the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)). It has two main purposes: one is that the current terminal device can obtain frequency domain diversity gain; the other is to randomize the interference of other terminal devices or cells.

[0003] However, in the PUSCH design of the new radio (NR) system, if the design similar to LTE is still used, there will be disadvantages of frequency domain resource fragmentation determined by the frequency hopping function and very complex base station scheduling. At the same time, due to the difference from the LTE system, the density and position of the demodulation reference signal (DMRS) of different terminal devices in NR may be different. Therefore, if random frequency hopping is used, different terminal devices may perform transmission at the same location, making it difficult to orthogonalize the DMRS ports.

[0079] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method 100 for configuring resources according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 100 may be executed by a terminal device. Figure 1 As shown, the method 100 includes: S110, determining the frequency domain offset of multiple transmission resource blocks allocated by the network device, the frequency domain offset is the frequency domain offset between the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block, and the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block are any two adjacent resource blocks in the time domain among the multiple transmission resource blocks; S120, determining the multiple transmission resource blocks according to the frequency domain offset.

[0080] Specifically, the network device configures multiple transmission resource blocks for the terminal device, and the multiple transmission resource blocks can be used for the terminal device to transmit PUSCH, wherein each transmission resource block may occupy different time domain and frequency domain resources, and the terminal device determines the frequency domain offset between any two transmission resource blocks in the multiple transmission resource blocks by preconfiguration or by receiving the frequency domain offset sent by the network device. The embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0081] Optionally, as an embodiment, the terminal device may determine the frequency domain offset in a preconfigured manner, for example, by configuring a fixed threshold in the terminal device as the frequency domain offset.

[0082] Optionally, as an embodiment, the terminal device may also receive first configuration information sent by the network device, the first configuration information being used to indicate the frequency domain offset, wherein the first configuration information may be at least one of a network broadcast message, a network system message, an RRC message, a MAC CE, and a DCI. For example, the terminal device receives an RRC message sent by the network device, the RRC message may include the frequency domain offset; for another example, the terminal device receives an RRC message and a MAC CE sent by the network device, and determines the frequency domain offset configured by the network device through the RRC message and the MAC CE.

[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, the time domain resource sizes occupied by the multiple transmission resource blocks allocated by the network device to the terminal device can be the same or different, and the time domain size occupied by each transmission resource block in the multiple transmission resource blocks is not limited here. Here, any two transmission resource blocks in the multiple transmission resource blocks that are adjacent in the time domain are taken as an example. Figures 2 to 4 It indicates the time domain size that each transmission resource block in the multiple transmission resource blocks may occupy, and the occupied frequency domain size can be any size, wherein any two adjacent transmission resource blocks in the time domain are the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block.

[0084] It should be understood that the term "adjacent" here means that when the multiple transmission resource blocks of the terminal device are arranged in time order, the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block are adjacent in the time domain, but the two transmission resource blocks may be continuous or discontinuous in the time domain. For example, when the multiple transmission resource blocks are arranged in time order, the first transmission resource block may be the transmission resource block at the odd position of the multiple transmission resource blocks, and the second transmission resource block may be the transmission resource block at the even position after the first transmission resource block.

[0085] Optionally, as an embodiment, the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block may respectively occupy two parts of a subframe, or may respectively occupy two parts of a micro-subframe. Figure 2 As shown, the first transmission resource block occupies the first part of a subframe K, which is Figure 2 The left part of Figure 2 The black part on the left side of the figure is the first transmission resource block, and the second transmission resource block occupies the second part of the subframe K, which is Figure 2 The right part of Figure 2 The black part on the right side of the figure is the second transmission resource block. Figure 2 The subframe K shown may also be a micro-subframe K, that is, the first transmission resource block occupies a first part of a micro-subframe K, and the second transmission resource block occupies a second part of the micro-subframe K.

[0086] It should be understood that the first part and the second part may be equal in the time domain, for example, the first part and the second part may equally divide a subframe or micro-subframe; or the first part and the second part may not be equal, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0087] Optionally, as an embodiment, the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block may occupy one subframe respectively, or may occupy one micro-subframe respectively, and the subframes or micro-subframes are continuous. Figure 3 As shown, the first transmission resource block occupies Figure 3 In the subframe K on the left side of the figure, the second transmission resource block occupies Figure 3 The subframe K+1 on the right side of the transmission resource block; or, the first transmission resource block occupies Figure 3 The micro subframe K on the left side of the second transmission resource block occupies Figure 3 In the micro-subframe K+1 on the right side, the subframes or micro-subframes occupied by the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block are continuous.

[0088] Optionally, as an embodiment, the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block may occupy one subframe respectively, or may occupy one micro-subframe respectively, and the subframes or micro-subframes are not continuous. Figure 4 As shown, the first transmission resource block occupies Figure 4 The subframe M on the left side of the second transmission resource block occupies Figure 4 or, the first transmission resource block occupies the subframe N on the right side of Figure 4 The micro subframe M on the left side of the second transmission resource block occupies Figure 4 In the micro-subframe N on the right side, the subframes or micro-subframes occupied by the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block are discontinuous, that is, the difference between M and N is greater than 1. Optionally, other subframes between the subframe M and the subframe N, or other micro-subframes between the micro-subframe M and the micro-subframe N, can be transmission resources allocated by the network device to other terminal devices, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0089] It should be understood that the size of the above-mentioned subframe can be 1 ms, and can include 14 orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols; correspondingly, the size of the micro subframe is smaller than the size of the subframe, and the micro subframe can include less than 14 OFDM symbols.

[0090] For ease of description, no limitation is imposed on the time domain size and frequency domain size occupied by the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block described below, and the example that the first transmission resource block is located before the second transmission resource block in the time domain is used for illustration.

[0091] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can determine the position of the frequency domain resources occupied by the first transmission resource block. For example, the frequency domain position of the first transmission resource block can be determined based on the configuration of the network device, and then the frequency domain offset between the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block can be determined, and then the frequency domain resource position occupied by the second transmission resource block can be determined based on the frequency domain offset.

[0092] It should be understood that Figure 5 As shown, the black block on the left represents the first transmission resource block, and the black block on the right represents the second transmission resource block. The frequency domain offset (P offset ) can represent the difference between the starting position of the frequency domain occupied by the first transmission resource block and the starting position of the frequency domain occupied by the second transmission resource block, then the terminal device can determine the starting position of the frequency domain occupied by the second transmission resource block according to the sum of the starting position of the frequency domain occupied by the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset. Optionally, the frequency domain offset can also represent the frequency domain offset between the first transmission resource block and the second transmission resource block in other ways.

[0093] For example, the frequency domain offset can also represent the difference between the frequency domain end position occupied by the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain start position occupied by the second transmission resource block. The terminal device can determine the starting position of the frequency domain occupied by the second transmission resource block based on the sum of the frequency domain end position occupied by the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset.

[0094] For another example, the frequency domain offset can also represent the difference between the center position of the frequency domain resources occupied by the first transmission resource block and the center position of the frequency domain resources occupied by the second transmission resource block. The terminal device can determine the center position of the frequency domain resources occupied by the second transmission resource block based on the sum of the center position of the frequency domain resources occupied by the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset, and then determine the starting position of the frequency domain resources occupied by the second transmission resource block based on the size of the second transmission resource block.

[0095] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may also determine a resource region parameter, which is used to indicate a frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block among multiple transmission resource blocks allocated by the network device to the terminal device. Optionally, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block indicated by the resource region parameter may be continuous or discontinuous, for example, may be multiple dispersed regions.

[0096] It should be understood that the frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block indicated by the resource area parameter, the at least one transmission resource block can be all or part of the multiple transmission resource blocks, and the at least one transmission resource block at least includes the second transmission resource block. Specifically, the terminal device can determine the frequency domain position occupied by the first transmission resource block according to pre-configuration or semi-static or dynamic configuration of the network device, and then determine the position of the second transmission resource block according to the frequency domain position and frequency domain offset occupied by the first transmission resource block. Here, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by the second transmission resource block indicated by the resource area parameter is used as an example for explanation.

[0097] Optionally, as an embodiment, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block indicated by the resource area parameter can be continuous, that is, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by the second transmission resource block is continuous. Figure 6 As shown, based on the resource area parameters, the terminal device determines that the frequency domain range that can be occupied by the second transmission resource block is the other frequency domain range except the edge diagonal shaded area on the right side. Then the terminal device determines the second transmission resource block within the area based on the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset.

[0098] Among them, Figure 6 The edge position shown by the diagonal shaded area on the right side is not used to transmit PUSCH, but can transmit other signals, such as physical uplink control channel (PUCCH).

[0099] Optional, if Figure 6 As shown, when it is determined based on the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset that the range of the second transmission resource block exceeds the range indicated by the resource area parameter, the non-exceeded part and the exceeded part can be separated, and the exceeded part can be placed on the other side for transmission by circulating within the range indicated by the resource area parameter.

[0100] Optionally, as an embodiment, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block indicated by the resource region parameter can be discontinuous, that is, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by the second transmission resource block is discontinuous, for example, the region indicated by the resource region parameter can be multiple discontinuous regions. Figure 7 As shown, the area indicated by the resource area parameter may include two areas, namely Figure 7 In the figure, the area 1 and the area 2 are represented by the cross-hatched areas, and the second transmission resource block belongs to the area 1 and the area 2.

[0101] Specifically, the terminal device determines the second transmission resource block in the area 1 and the area 2 according to the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset, wherein the frequency domain offset may not include the part other than the area 1 and the area 2. Similarly, when it is determined that the starting position of the second transmission resource block is close to the edge of the area 1 or the area 2 according to the first transmission resource block and the frequency domain offset, and the second transmission resource block has a part that exceeds the area 1 or the area 2, the exceeding part and the non-exceeding part of the second transmission resource block can also be separated and circulated in the area 1 and / or the area 2. For example, it is determined that the starting position of the second transmission resource block is close to the edge of the area 2, and the second transmission resource block has a part that exceeds the area 2, the second transmission resource block can be transmitted separately, and the exceeding part can continue to be circulated in the area 2, or circulated in all available areas, that is, circulated in the area 1 and the area 2, and the exceeding part of the second transmission resource block is mapped to the area 1, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0102] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may determine the resource area parameter in a preconfigured manner. Optionally, the terminal device may also receive a second configuration message sent by a network device, the second configuration message is used to indicate the resource area parameter, and the second configuration message may be at least one of a network broadcast message, a network system message, an RRC message, a MAC CE, and a DCI. For example, the terminal device receives an RRC message sent by a network device, the RRC message may include the resource area parameter; for another example, the terminal device receives an RRC message and a MAC CE sent by a network device, and determines the resource area parameter configured by the network device through the RRC message and the MAC CE.

[0103] Therefore, in the method for configuring resources in an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device determines the frequency domain offset between any two adjacent transmission resource blocks among the multiple transmission resource blocks allocated by the network device. In addition, it can also determine the frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block among the multiple transmission resource blocks, and determine the frequency domain positions of the multiple transmission resource blocks based on the frequency domain offset and the occupied frequency domain range. This configuration method simplifies network device scheduling and enables the terminal device to obtain frequency domain diversity gain while also avoiding fragmentation of transmission resources.

[0114] Optionally, the frequency domain range that can be occupied by the at least one transmission resource block indicated by the resource area parameter is discontinuous.

[0115] It should be understood that the network device in method 200 of the embodiment of the present application may correspond to the network device in method 100, and the terminal device in method 200 may correspond to the terminal device in method 100, which will not be repeated here.

[0116] Therefore, in the method for configuring resources of an embodiment of the present application, a network device configures multiple transmission resource blocks for the uplink transmission of a terminal device, and sends a frequency domain offset between any two adjacent transmission resource blocks in the multiple transmission resource blocks to the terminal device. In addition, a frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block in the multiple transmission resource blocks can be configured for the terminal device, so that the terminal device can determine the frequency domain positions of the multiple transmission resource blocks based on the frequency domain offset and the occupied frequency domain range, thereby simplifying the configuration of the network device and allowing the terminal device to obtain frequency domain diversity gain while avoiding fragmentation of transmission resources.

Alternatively, the terminal device may also receive a configuration message sent by a network device, the configuration message is used to indicate the resource area parameter, and the configuration message may be at least one of a network broadcast message, a network system message, an RRC message, a MAC CE, and a DCI.

For example, the terminal device can use frequency hopping to perform uplink transmission, such as PUSCH transmission, then the at least one transmission resource block at least includes a transmission resource block that requires frequency hopping transmission.

[0123] Specifically, the terminal device can perform frequency hopping transmission in the manner of the prior art, for example, for any two adjacent transmission resource blocks among the multiple transmission resource blocks configured by the network device, after the frequency domain position of the previous transmission resource block is fixed, the frequency domain position of the next transmission resource block can be determined according to the frequency hopping function. The next transmission resource block belongs to at least one transmission resource block, that is, the frequency domain position occupied by the next transmission resource block belongs to the frequency domain range that can be occupied by at least one transmission resource block indicated by the resource area parameter.

[0124] Optionally, the terminal device may also determine the frequency domain offset between any two adjacent transmission resource blocks in the manner of the above-mentioned method 100 and method 200, and then perform frequency hopping transmission, which is not elaborated here.

[0125] It should be understood that when the terminal device determines the occupiable frequency domain range indicated by the resource region parameter, the terminal device determines multiple transmission resource blocks within the range and uses the multiple transmission resource blocks for uplink transmission, such as transmitting PUSCH.
