Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a transmission processing method, apparatus and terminal. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, when a terminal performs a cell search, it attempts to search for and receive synchronization signals and physical broadcast channels. NR (New Radio) supports beam sweeping for SSB (Synchronization Signal Block) transmission, meaning that SSBs can be transmitted in different beams using time-division multiplexing. The set of SSBs within a beam sweep is called an SSB burst set. An SSB burst set contains multiple candidate SSBs, each with an index called an SSB index. Different SSB indices can represent sending candidate SSBs in different spatial directions (i.e., using different beams).

[0003] Additionally, the PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel) carries the MIB (Master Information Block), which contains a small amount of access information needed by the terminal to obtain the RMSI (Remaining Minimal System Information) broadcast by the network. The specific scheduling information for the RMSI is configured by System Information Block 1 (SIB1). To enable the UE to monitor SIB1 scheduled by the PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel), the MIB provides the parameters required for monitoring the PDCCH in pdcch-ConfigSIB1. For example, the Common Control Resource Set (CORESET#0) that determines the physical resources of the PDCCH scheduling SIB1 is called the Type0-PDCCH CORESET. The search space configuration that determines the monitoring occasion of the PDCCH scheduling SIB1 is called the Type0-PDCCH Common search space (CSS). This monitoring occasion is associated with the SSB index.

[0004] In this way, the terminal can assume that the transmission of the SSB and its associated Type 0-PDCCH CSS use the same wavenumber. Therefore, the terminal detects and measures the SSB, selects the candidate SSB with the strongest RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power), and obtains the corresponding SSB index. This index establishes a beam correspondence between the network-side equipment and the terminal. The terminal can calculate the monitoring timing of the Type 0-PDCCH CSS based on this index, receive the PDCCH scheduled for SIB1, and after correctly demodulating SIB1, the terminal will begin the random access procedure. The beam used in the random access procedure is also consistent with the selected SSB index.

[0005] However, to meet the needs of vertical industries, terminals need to reduce the number of receiving antennas, and the reduction in the number of receiving antennas will directly lead to a decrease in downlink coverage. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a transmission processing method, apparatus, and terminal that can solve the problem of reduced downlink coverage.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application is implemented as follows:

[0009] The system receives at least two target resources; wherein the target resources are a synchronization signal block, a control resource set, or a system information block (SIB1), and the control resource set is a physical resource used to determine the physical downlink control channel for scheduling SIB1.

[0010] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a transmission processing apparatus, including:

[0011] The first processing module is used to merge and receive at least two target resources; wherein the target resources are a synchronization signal block, a control resource set, or a system information block (SIB1), and the control resource set is a physical resource used to determine the physical downlink control channel for scheduling SIB1.

[0012] Thirdly, embodiments of this application also provide a terminal, which includes a processor, a memory, and a program or instructions stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the program or instructions, when executed by the processor, implement the steps of the method described in the first aspect.

[0024] Figure 1This diagram illustrates a block diagram of a wireless communication system applicable to embodiments of this application. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network-side device 12. The terminal 11 can also be referred to as a terminal device or user equipment (UE).

The base station is not limited to specific technical terms. It should be noted that in this embodiment of the application, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example, but the specific type of base station is not limited.

[0025] The transmission processing method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this application illustrates a transmission processing method applied to a terminal, comprising:

[0027] Step 201: Merge and receive at least two target resources; wherein the target resources are a synchronization signal block, a control resource set, or a system information block (SIB1), and the control resource set is a physical resource used to determine the physical downlink control channel for scheduling SIB1.

[0028] Through the above steps, the terminal can perform combined reception of at least two of the synchronization signal block SSB, control resource set, or SIB1, thereby improving the terminal's reception capability and solving the problem of reduced downlink coverage.

[0029] The control resource can be CORESET#0 or SS#0. The combined reception of at least two target resources is not limited to the resources themselves, but also includes information about the resources.

[0030] For example, for a UE with a reduced number of receiving antennas, the method of this application embodiment can be used to receive multiple SSBs and combine the RSRPs of these multiple SSBs as the determination of the access cell in the cell search and access scenario; in the scenario of receiving and demodulating control signaling of the broadcast control channel at CORESET#0, PDCCHs can be received on multiple CORESET#0s and the demodulated control signaling can be combined. Here, the PDCCH received on CORESET#0 is a broadcast PDCCH.

[0031] In this embodiment, for different target resources, step 201 may optionally include:

[0032] If the target resource is a synchronization signal block, M synchronization signal blocks are received in one or X synchronization signal block transmission cycles.

[0033] If the target resource is a set of control resources, the physical downlink control channels used for broadcasting on N sets of control resources are received and decoded;

[0034] If the target resource is SIB1, receive and decode K SIB1s;

[0035] Where X, N, M, and K are all positive integers greater than 1.

[0036] Here, for SSBs, the terminal can merge and receive M SSBs in one or X SSB transmission cycles. In one SSB transmission cycle, if the network-side device sends L candidate SSBs, the terminal will merge and receive T SSBs, where 1 < T ≤ L. Of course, the M SSBs in X SSB transmission cycles are further merged and received if the RSRP of the SSBs merged and received in the first SSB transmission cycle fails to meet the requirements; therefore, T ≤ M. Of the L candidate SSBs sent by the network-side device in one SSB transmission cycle, T SSBs are repeatedly transmitted. For frequency bands below 3 GHz, a maximum of 4 SSBs can be contained in one SSB burst, i.e., L = 4; for frequency bands between 3 GHz and 6 GHz, a maximum of 8 SSBs can be contained in one SSB burst, i.e., L = 8; for higher frequency bands (FR2), a maximum of 64 SSBs can be contained in one SSB burst, i.e., L = 64.

[0037] For a control resource set, such as CORESET#0, a terminal can receive and decode broadcast PDCCH on N CORESET#0s to obtain control signaling. These N CORESET#0s can be associated with different and / or the same SSB index. Similarly, for SS#0, downlink control information (DCI) can be received on N SS#0s. These N SS#0s can have the same starting CCEindex, aggregation level AL; or, the SSB indexes associated with the N SS#0s can have a common modulus, etc.

[0038] For SIB1, the terminal can receive and decode K SIB1s.

[0039] In this embodiment, for the combined reception of SSBs, optionally, after combining and receiving M synchronization signal blocks in one or X synchronization signal block transmission cycles, it further includes at least one of the following:

[0040] Based on the reference signal reception power of the M synchronization signal blocks, determine whether to remain stationary or generate a measurement report;

[0041] The transmission beam is determined based on the identifiers of the M synchronization signal blocks;

[0042] Joint demodulation is performed on the main information blocks (MIBs) on the M synchronization signal blocks.

[0043] In this way, the terminal can determine whether to camp or generate a measurement report based on the reference signal received power of the M synchronization signal blocks. Furthermore, based on the correspondence between the SSB index and the beam, the transmission beam can be determined according to the indices of the M SSBs, and subsequent transmission can be completed after camping is confirmed. Of course, based on the indices of the M SSBs, the physical random access channel (PRACH) resources used for subsequent random access, the number of repeated transmissions, and the beam used can also be determined.

[0044] Specifically, the determination of whether to remain stationary is based on the reference signal received power of the M synchronization signal blocks. Compared with the first preset power threshold (rsrp-ThresholdSSB), if If the downlink coverage is reduced, the UE will remain camped; otherwise, it will not. This method is applicable to UEs with reduced downlink coverage. For UEs without reduced downlink coverage, a target SSB with an RSRP greater than the second preset power threshold and greater than other RSRPs can be selected. This target SSB has a corresponding SSB index, which can further determine the transmission beam and / or cell. The first preset power threshold and the second preset power threshold can be the same or different.

[0045] Furthermore, for the combined reception of M synchronization signal blocks in one or X synchronization signal block transmission cycles, it can also be used for MIB decoding, that is, the UE performs joint demodulation of M SSBs.

[0046] In this embodiment, optionally, the value of M is pre-configured, pre-defined, or configured by the network-side device; or,

[0047] The terminal determines this based on preset conditions.

[0048] Optionally,

[0049] The value of M is equal to the number of synchronization signal blocks sent by the network-side device, and the synchronization signal blocks sent by the network-side device have different identifiers;

[0050] The sum of the reference signal received power of the M synchronization signal blocks is greater than or equal to a first threshold, and M is less than or equal to a second threshold, the second threshold corresponding to the reference signal received power of the first synchronization signal block received by the terminal;

[0051] The reference signal receiving power of the M synchronization signal blocks is greater than the reference signal receiving power of the remaining synchronization signal blocks.

[0052] The M synchronization signal blocks have the same identifier;

[0053] The identifiers and quasi-co-address parameters of the M synchronization signal blocks satisfy the first correspondence relationship;

[0054] The demodulation reference signal sequence indices and quasi-co-address parameters of the M synchronization signal blocks satisfy a second correspondence; or

[0055] The value of M is determined based on the reference signal received power of the first synchronization signal block received by the terminal and the size of a preset threshold.

[0056] Thus, the value of M can be equal to the number of synchronization signal blocks sent by the network-side device, i.e., M = L', where L' is the number of SSBs actually sent by the network-side device, L' ≤ L, and these L' SSBs have different SSB indices.

[0057] Alternatively, the value of M can be accumulated using the RSRP of the SSB until... The first threshold can be rsrp-ThresholdSSB, where M ≤ M_max, which is the second threshold. M_max corresponds to the reference signal received power of the first synchronization signal block received by the terminal, as shown in Table 1 below:

[0058]

[0059] Table 1

[0060] However, if M = M_max, and The terminal will either relinquish access to the cell or report a radio link failure.

[0061] Alternatively, among all received SSBs, select the M SSBs with the highest RSRP, meaning the RSRP of these M SSBs is greater than the RSRP of the remaining SSBs. Optionally, the selection of the M SSBs starts with the SSB with the highest RSRP and proceeds sequentially in descending order of RSRP until...

[0062] Alternatively, M SSBs have the same index, meaning the value of M equals the number of SSBs with the same index. For example, consider that the index is the index of the demodulated reference signal DM-RS sequence. The network-side device transmits the index of the same DM-RS sequence in the PBCH of multiple SSBs within one or X SSB transmission cycles; the number of these multiple SSBs is the value of M. This method of determining the value of M is more suitable for frequency range 2 (FR2, i.e., millimeter wave). For FR2, the UE needs to read the PBCH to obtain the timing within 5ms.

[0063] Alternatively, the indices of the M SSBs and the quasi-co-address parameters The first correspondence is satisfied. This first correspondence consists of index pairs of M SSBs. Taking the remainder will result in the same value, that is, the indexes of the M SSBs can obtain the same value through the formula At this time, it is not allowed for the network side device to send multiple SSBs with the same index within one SSB period; or, it is not allowed for the PBCHs in the multiple SSBs sent to have the same where The value of can be predefined as shown in Table 2 below, corresponding to different subcarrier spacings (SCS):

[0064]

[0065] Table 2

[0066] Or, the and of the M SSBs satisfy the second correspondence relationship. This second correspondence relationship is that the of the M SSBs takes the remainder with respect to will result in the same value, that is, the of the M SSBs can obtain the same value through the formula Similarly, at this time, it is not allowed for the network side device to send multiple SSBs with the same index within one SSB period; or, it is not allowed for the PBCHs in the multiple SSBs sent to have the same And The value of can be predefined as shown in Table 2 above.

[0067] Alternatively, it is determined according to the size relationship between the reference signal reception power of the first synchronization signal block received by the terminal and a preset threshold. For example, for L = 4, the preset thresholds include Q1dB and Q2dB, and Q1 < Q2. Then, if the RSRP of the first SSB received by the UE is less than Q1, M = 2; if the RSRP of the first SSB received by the UE is greater than Q1 but less than Q2, M = 4. Of course, the number of preset thresholds is not limited to two, and can be 1 or greater than two, which will not be listed one by one here.

[0068] In this embodiment, optionally, the value of N is equal to the value of M;

[0069] The value of N is indicated by the indication field of the master information block; or,

[0070] The value of N corresponds to the master information block.

[0071] Here, for a terminal that uses M SSBs to determine the resident cell, M CORESET#0 or SS#0 associated with the M SSBs can be used to receive DCI, that is, N = M.

[0072] Alternatively, the value of N can be determined based on the indication field of the main information block (MIB). For example, as shown in Table 3 below, 1 or 2 bits are reserved in the MIB (e.g., () refers to the value of N:

[0073]

[0074] Table 3

[0075] The UE can receive and decode PDCCH from N CORESET#0 or SS#0 associated with multiple SSBs to obtain DCI.

[0076] Alternatively, the value of N can correspond to a MIB, and this correspondence can be predefined or configured. For example, as shown in Table 4 or 5 below, the Reserved Index can be determined based on the MIB, thereby obtaining the value of N:

[0077]

[0078] Table 4

[0079] Here, Table 4 is a modification of the table of parameters used to determine the PDCCH monitoring timing for the Type0-PDCCH common search space set when the synchronization signal block and control resource set multiplexing mode is 1 in frequency range 1 (FR1). In Table 4, N applies to UEs with reduced downlink coverage.

[0080]

[0081] Table 5

[0082] Here, Table 5 is a modification of the table of parameters used to determine the PDCCH monitoring timing of the Type0-PDCCH common search space set when the synchronization signal block and control resource set multiplexing mode is 1 on FR2. Of course, M in Tables 4 and 5 is not the number of merged received SSBs in this application, but the parameters in the original table, which will not be repeated here.

[0083] In this embodiment, optionally, in the N physical downlink control channels used for broadcasting on the control resource sets, each physical downlink control channel carries downlink control information (DCI) of the same size and content.

[0084] Furthermore, optionally, in the N control resource sets, the same DCI mapping is associated with the location of each physical downlink control channel.

[0085] The same DCI mapping is associated with the location of each physical downlink control channel. This means the same DCI can be mapped to the same location on each physical downlink control channel. For example, if the DCI is mapped to the first PDCCH candidate with AL8 on the first SSB, then the DCI is also mapped to the first PDCCH candidate with AL8 on the second SSB and the third SSB. When the same DCI is mapped to the nth PDCCH candidate with a given AL=4, 8, or 16, the UE with reduced downlink coverage (RedCap UE) repeats the blind detection (BD) of the same PDCCH candidate on N CORESET#0 locations.

[0086] Of course, the same DCI mapping can be located at different positions in each physical downlink control channel within these N control resource sets, and their association can be predefined or configured.

[0087] Alternatively, the physical downlink control channels used for broadcasting on the N control resource sets may each carry N parts of the same DCI.

[0088] For example, a DCI can be split and transmitted over N CORESET#0s of multiple SSBs to the nth PDCCH candidate of a given AL.

[0089] In this embodiment, optionally, the time interval of the physical downlink control channel is greater than or equal to a first duration.

[0090] Here, PDCCH refers to multiple PDCCHs scrambled with Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) codes using System Information Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SI-RNTI). Thus, the initial duration is determined by the UE's processing capability and at least one of the SCS used to transmit the PDCCH or PDSCH. For example, the UE can independently demodulate multiple repeating PDCCHs, or first independently demodulate the first PDCCH; if the first PDCCH demodulation fails, then jointly demodulate the first and second PDCCHs. In this case, the initial duration T ≥ A1 (e.g., A1 = 2 or 3 symbols); if the UE always jointly demodulates multiple PDCCHs, then T ≥ A2 (e.g., A2 = 0 or 1 symbols).

[0091] In this embodiment, for receiving and decoding K SIB1s, optionally, the value of K is equal to the value of N; or,

[0092] The value of K is indicated by the control resource set.

[0093] Here, the value of K can be determined by the value of N, or it can be indicated by the control resource set. Of course, the control resource set can indicate the value of K implicitly or explicitly, which will not be listed here.

[0094] In summary, the method of this application embodiment can perform combined reception of at least two of the SSB, control resource set, or SIB1, thereby improving the terminal's reception capability and solving the problem of reduced downlink coverage.

[0095] It should be noted that the transmission processing method provided in this application embodiment can be executed by a transmission processing device or a control module within that device for executing the loading transmission processing method.
