[0050] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a data scheduling method according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[0051] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a user equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0052] As mentioned above, the existing multi-transmission block scheduling mechanism does not explicitly specify how user equipment should activate and use multi-transmission block scheduling.

[0053] In this embodiment of the invention, an indication signal sent by a base station is received, and a determination is made based on the indication signal whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling, thereby indicating whether the user equipment needs to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling.

[0054] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and beneficial effects of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0055] This invention provides a data scheduling method, referring to... Figure 1 The following will provide a detailed explanation through specific steps.

[0056] Step S101: Receive the indication signal sent by the base station.

[0057] In practice, the base station can instruct the user equipment (UE) whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multiple transport block scheduling (MPBS). The base station can send an indication signal to the UE to indicate whether the UE has activated the MPBS-based data transmission mode.

[0058] In this embodiment of the invention, the indication signal can be a Wake-Up Signal (WUS), which carries an indication of whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling. Alternatively, the indication signal can be common Downlink Control Information (DCI), which carries an indication of whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling.

[0059] Step S102: Determine whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling according to the indication signal.

[0060] In practice, after receiving the indication signal, the user equipment can determine whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling according to the indication signal.

[0061] In this embodiment of the invention, the indication signal can be a wake-up signal. The user equipment can determine whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmitter block scheduling based on the wake-up signal. Before sending the wake-up signal to the user equipment, the base station can also send configuration information to the user equipment. The configuration information can include the number M of transport blocks used for multi-transmitter block transmission and the corresponding transmission parameter configuration. After receiving the configuration information, the user equipment can know the number of transport blocks used for multi-transmitter block transmission and the corresponding parameter configuration.

[0062] Base stations can send configuration information to user equipment via higher-layer signaling. For example, base stations can send configuration information to user equipment via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling.

[0063] In practical implementation, a dedicated bit field can be set in the wake-up signal, which may include one or more bits. By setting the value of the bit in the dedicated bit field, the user equipment is instructed whether to activate uplink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling, downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling, or both uplink and downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling.

[0064] After receiving a wake-up signal, the user equipment can determine whether uplink and / or downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling is activated within the associated DRX cycle. As is known in existing protocols, each DRX cycle is time-associated with a wake-up signal, and this wake-up signal precedes the on-duration of each DRX cycle.

[0065] In this embodiment of the invention, the dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal may include 1 bit, that is, the dedicated bit field may include only one bit. The base station may set: when the value of this bit is 0, it indicates that in the associated DRX period, both uplink and downlink use a single transport block (single TB) for data transmission and reception; when the value of this bit is 1, it indicates that in the associated DRX period, both uplink and downlink use a multi-TB for data transmission and reception.

[0066] After receiving a wake-up signal, if the user equipment detects a bit value of 0 in the dedicated bit field, it will use a single transport block for data transmission and reception for both uplink and downlink within the associated DRX period. If it detects a bit value of 1 in the dedicated bit field, it will use multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception for both uplink and downlink within the associated DRX period. Specifically, the number of multiple transport blocks used by the user equipment and the transmission parameter configuration are determined by the pre-received configuration information.

[0067] In other words, if the dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal contains only one bit, then that bit can indicate whether the uplink and downlink of the user equipment use a single transport block for data transmission, or whether the uplink and downlink use a multi-transport block scheduling data transmission method.

[0068] It is understandable that the meanings represented by the bit values ​​of 0 and 1 mentioned above can be interchanged. The specific meanings represented by 0 and 1 can be agreed upon in advance by the base station and the user equipment, that is, both the base station and the user equipment know the meanings represented by 0 and 1.

[0069] In this embodiment of the invention, the dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal may also include two bits. The base station may configure the following settings: when both bits are 00, the user equipment is instructed to use a single transport block for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink within the associated DRX period; when both bits are 01, the user equipment is instructed to use multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in uplink and a single transport block for data transmission and reception in downlink within the associated DRX period; when both bits are 10, the user equipment is instructed to use multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in downlink and a single transport block for data transmission and reception in uplink within the associated DRX period; when both bits are 11, the user equipment is instructed to use multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink within the associated DRX period.

[0070] After receiving the wake-up signal, if the user equipment detects that the value of a bit in the dedicated bit field is 0 or 1, then during the associated DRX period, it will use multiple transport blocks for uplink data transmission and reception, and use a single transport block for downlink data transmission and reception.

[0071] It is understood that the meanings of the bit values ​​00, 01, 10, and 11 mentioned above are not limited to the examples above, as long as the base station and user equipment are aware of them in advance.

[0072] In practical implementation, the configuration information issued by the base station may include a set of candidate values ​​and their corresponding transmission parameter configurations. The base station can indicate the value selected from the candidate value set in a dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal. After receiving the wake-up signal, the user equipment reads the value of the bit in the dedicated bit field; based on the bit value, it selects the number N of transport blocks corresponding to the bit value from the candidate value set.

[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, the bits in the dedicated bit field of the wake-up signal are used to indicate whether uplink and downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling is activated simultaneously, and the number N of transmission blocks used when transmitting data.

[0074] In this embodiment of the invention, the candidate value set issued in the configuration information is {1,2,4,8}. The base station can make the following settings: when the value of the bit in the dedicated bit field of the wake-up signal is 00, the user equipment uses a single transport block for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during the associated DRX period; when the value of the bit in the dedicated bit field of the wake-up signal is 01, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 2; when the value of the bit in the dedicated bit field of the wake-up signal is 10, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; when the value of the bit in the dedicated bit field of the wake-up signal is 11, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 8.

[0075] As in the example above, in the wake-up signal sent by the base station to the user equipment, the bits in the dedicated bit field indicate the number of transport blocks used by the user equipment for simultaneous uplink and downlink operations.

[0076] In another embodiment of the present invention, the dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal includes two parts: a first dedicated bit field and a second dedicated bit field, wherein: the value of the first dedicated bit field is used to indicate the number of transport blocks used during uplink transmission; and the value of the second dedicated bit field is used to indicate the number of transport blocks used during downlink transmission. Upon receiving the wake-up signal, the user equipment can obtain the values ​​of the first dedicated bit field and the second dedicated bit field, and determine the number of transport blocks used for uplink transmission and the number of transport blocks used for downlink transmission, respectively.

[0077] For example, the candidate value set issued in the configuration information is {1,2,4,8}. For uplink transmission, the base station makes the following settings: When the value of a bit in the first dedicated bit field is 00, the user equipment uses a single transport block for data transmission and reception in the uplink during the associated DRX period; when the value of a bit in the first dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal is 01, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the uplink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 2; when the value of a bit in the first dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal is 10, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the uplink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; when the value of a bit in the first dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal is 11, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the uplink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 8.

[0078] For downlink transmission, the base station makes the following settings: When the value of a bit in the second dedicated bit field is 00, the user equipment uses a single transport block for data transmission and reception in the downlink during the associated DRX period; when the value of a bit in the second dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal is 01, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the downlink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 2; when the value of a bit in the second dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal is 10, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the downlink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; when the value of a bit in the second dedicated bit field in the wake-up signal is 11, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the downlink during the associated DRX period, and the number of transport blocks used is 8.

[0079] When a user equipment receives a wake-up signal, the value of a bit in the first dedicated bit field is 10, and the value of a bit in the second dedicated bit field is 01. Then, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission in the uplink, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission in the downlink, and the number of transport blocks used is 2.

[0080] As can be seen, by setting the first dedicated bit field and the second dedicated bit field respectively, the number of transport blocks used by the user equipment for uplink transmission and the number of transport blocks used for downlink transmission can be indicated simultaneously.

[0081] It is understood that the meanings represented by 00, 01, 10, and 11 above, as well as the values ​​of the candidate value set, are only examples. In practical applications, they can be adjusted according to specific needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0082] In practice, the indication signal sent by the base station can also be a common DCI. User equipment (UE) can determine whether to activate the multi-transmission block scheduling (MTS) data transmission mode based on the common DCI. Before sending the common DCI to the UE, the base station can also send configuration information to the UE, including the number M of transmission blocks used in MTS transmission and their corresponding transmission parameter configurations. After receiving the configuration information from the base station, the UE can then know the number M of transmission blocks used in MTS transmission and their corresponding transmission parameter configurations.

[0083] In practice, a dedicated bit field exists within the common DCI, and each user equipment (UE) has a corresponding dedicated bit in the common DCI, with the position of this dedicated bit differing for each UE. Therefore, different UEs can be distinguished by the dedicated bit at different positions within the dedicated bit field.

[0084] The base station can transmit the location information of each user equipment (UE) via RRC signaling or system broadcast messages. The location information can be used to indicate the position of the dedicated bit corresponding to each UE in the dedicated bit field. The UE can then find the corresponding dedicated bit in the dedicated bit field based on the location information, and thus determine the value of the dedicated bit.

[0085] In this embodiment of the invention, in common DCI, the length of the dedicated bit corresponding to each user equipment can be 1 bit. Based on the value of this 1 bit, it is determined whether uplink and downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling is activated simultaneously.

[0086] The base station can be configured as follows: In the common DCI, a dedicated bit for the user equipment (UE) is set to 0, indicating that all subsequent uplink and downlink data transmissions of the UE will use a single transport block; a dedicated bit for the UE is set to 1, indicating that all subsequent uplink and downlink data transmissions of the UE will use multiple transport blocks. Specifically, the specific value for multiple transport blocks is indicated by the configuration information.

[0087] For example, if User Equipment 1 receives a common DCI and reads the value of the corresponding dedicated bit in the dedicated bit field as 1, then the User Equipment will use multiple transport blocks for subsequent uplink and downlink data transmission.

[0088] In this embodiment of the invention, in the common DCI, the length of the dedicated bit corresponding to each user equipment can be 2 bits. Based on the value of these 2 bits, it is determined whether to activate uplink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling and whether to activate downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling.

[0089] The base station can be configured as follows: In the common DCI, a value of 00 for the dedicated bit corresponding to the user equipment indicates that all subsequent uplink and downlink data transmissions of the user equipment use a single transport block; a value of 01 indicates that subsequent uplink data transmissions of the user equipment use multiple transport blocks, while subsequent downlink data transmissions use a single transport block; a value of 10 indicates that subsequent downlink data transmissions of the user equipment use multiple transport blocks, while subsequent uplink data transmissions use a single transport block; and a value of 11 indicates that all subsequent uplink and downlink data transmissions of the user equipment use multiple transport blocks. Specifically, the specific value for multiple transport blocks is indicated by the configuration information.

[0090] In practical implementation, the configuration information sent by the base station may include a set of candidate values ​​and their corresponding transmission parameter configurations. The base station can indicate the value selected from the candidate value set in the dedicated bit field of the common DCI. After receiving the common DCI, the user equipment reads the value of the dedicated bit field corresponding to it; based on the value of the dedicated bit, it selects the corresponding number of transport blocks N from the candidate value set.

[0091] In one embodiment of the present invention, a dedicated bit in the common DCI is used to indicate whether uplink data transmission and downlink data transmission based on multi-transfer block scheduling are activated simultaneously, and the number N of transfer blocks used when transmitting data.

[0092] In this embodiment of the invention, the candidate value set issued in the configuration information is {1,2,4,8}. The base station can make the following settings: when the value of the dedicated bit in the common DCI is 00, the user equipment uses a single transport block for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during subsequent data transmission; when the value of the dedicated bit in the common DCI is 01, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 2; when the value of the dedicated bit in the common DCI is 10, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; when the value of the dedicated bit in the common DCI is 11, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in both uplink and downlink during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 8.

[0093] As in the example above, in the common DCI sent by the base station to the user equipment, the dedicated bits can be used to indicate the number of transport blocks used by the user equipment for both uplink and downlink simultaneously.

[0094] In another embodiment of the present invention, a dedicated bit set corresponding to a user equipment includes two parts: a first sub-partition and a second sub-partition, wherein: the bit values ​​in the first sub-partition are used to indicate the number of transport blocks used for uplink transmission; and the bit values ​​in the second sub-partition are used to indicate the number of transport blocks used for downlink transmission. Upon receiving the common DCI, the user equipment can obtain the bit values ​​in the first sub-partition and the second sub-partition, and determine the number of transport blocks used for uplink transmission and the number of transport blocks used for downlink transmission, respectively.

[0095] For example, the candidate value set issued in the configuration information is {1,2,4,8}. For uplink transmission, the base station makes the following settings: When the bit value in the first sub-partition is 00, the user equipment uses a single transport block for uplink data transmission and reception during subsequent data transmission; when the bit value in the first sub-partition of the common DCI is 01, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for uplink data transmission and reception during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 2; when the bit value in the first sub-partition of the common DCI is 10, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for uplink data transmission and reception during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; when the bit value in the first sub-partition of the common DCI is 11, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for uplink data transmission and reception during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 8.

[0096] For downlink transmission, the base station makes the following settings: When the bit value in the second sub-partition is 00, the user equipment uses a single transport block for data transmission and reception in the downlink during subsequent data transmission; when the bit value in the second sub-partition in the common DCI is 01, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the downlink during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 2; when the bit value in the second sub-partition in the common DCI is 10, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the downlink during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; when the bit value in the second sub-partition in the common DCI is 11, the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission and reception in the downlink during subsequent data transmission, and the number of transport blocks used is 8.

[0097] If a user equipment receives a common DCI, and the bit value in the first sub-partition is 10 and the bit value in the second sub-partition is 01, then the user equipment uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission in the uplink, and the number of transport blocks used is 4; the user equipment also uses multiple transport blocks for data transmission in the downlink, and the number of transport blocks used is 2.

[0098] It is understood that the meanings represented by 00, 01, 10, and 11 above, as well as the values ​​of the candidate value set, are only examples. In practical applications, they can be adjusted according to specific needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0099] In practice, after the user equipment determines that the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling is activated, it can also receive downlink control information (DCI) sent by the base station. In the DCI, there are M bits used to indicate the retransmission and newtransmission indications at the transport block (TB) level corresponding to the multi-transmission block transmission. The M bits correspond one-to-one with the M transport blocks.

[0100] Compared to the scheduling DCI in the prior art, the scheduling DCI received by the user equipment in this embodiment of the invention does not include the bit field used to indicate Code Block Group (CBG) retransmission, but includes M bits used to indicate retransmission and newtransmission at the Transport Block (TB) level corresponding to multi-transmit block transmission. In the scheduling DCI of the prior art, the number of bits used for CBG retransmission is X, where X is equal to M.

[0101] In other words, in this embodiment of the invention, the X bits used for CBG retransmission in the prior art scheduling DCI can be removed, and M bits used to indicate retransmission and newtransmission at the transport block (TB) level corresponding to multi-transmit block transmission can be added. Alternatively, the M bits used to indicate retransmission and newtransmission at the transport block (TB) level corresponding to multi-transmit block transmission can replace the X bits used for CBG retransmission in the prior art scheduling DCI.

[0102] In practical implementation, the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI in multi-transmission scenarios indicates whether the current transmission is based on retransmission of a transport block or a mixed transmission of new and retransmission of a transport block. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on a transport block, the value of each bit is appropriate to characterize whether the corresponding transport block is transmitted; when the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates mixed transmission of new and retransmission based on a transport block, the value of each bit is appropriate to characterize the data type of the corresponding transport block, which is either new data or retransmitted data.

[0103] In this embodiment of the invention, when the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on transport block, in the M bits, a bit with a value of 0 represents that the transport block corresponding to that bit has not been transmitted, and a bit with a value of 1 represents that the transport block corresponding to that bit is retransmitted data.

[0104] When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates mixed transmission based on new and retransmission of transport blocks, in the M bits, the bit with a value of 0 represents that the transport block corresponding to the bit is new data, and the bit with a value of 1 represents that the transport block corresponding to the bit is retransmission data.

[0105] It is understandable that the meanings represented by the bit values ​​of 0 and 1 in the above M bits can be interchanged. For example, when the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on transport block, a bit with a value of 1 in the M bits means that the transport block corresponding to that bit has not been transmitted, and a bit with a value of 0 means that the transport block corresponding to that bit is retransmitted data.

[0106] This invention also provides another data scheduling method, the specific steps of which are as follows: sending an indication signal to the user equipment, so that the user equipment determines whether to activate the data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling according to the indication signal.

[0107] In specific implementations, the indication signal can be a wake-up signal. In this embodiment of the invention, the wake-up signal is used to indicate whether the user equipment activates a data transmission mode based on multi-transmission block scheduling within the DRX period associated with the wake-up signal.

[0108] In practice, before sending an indication signal to the user equipment, the base station can also send configuration information to the user equipment. The configuration information includes the number of transport blocks M used in multi-transport block transmission and the corresponding transmission parameter configuration.

[0109] In specific implementation, the wake-up signal includes a dedicated bit field; the values ​​of the bits in the dedicated bit field are suitable for characterizing whether the user equipment activates uplink data transmission and / or downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission scheduling.

[0110] In practical implementation, after sending an indication signal to the user equipment, the base station can also send a scheduling DCI to the user equipment. The scheduling DCI does not include the bit field used to indicate code block retransmission, and the scheduling DCI includes M bits corresponding one-to-one with M transport blocks. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable to characterize whether the corresponding transport block is transmitted; when the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates mixed transmission of new and retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable to characterize the data type of the corresponding transport block, which is either new data or retransmission data.

[0111] In practical implementation, the configuration information sent by the base station to the user equipment may also include a set of candidate values ​​for the number of transport blocks and their corresponding transmission parameter configurations. In this case, a dedicated bit field is set in the wake-up signal, and the values ​​of the bits in the dedicated bit field are suitable for representing the number N of transport blocks selected from the candidate value set.

[0112] In a specific implementation, the wake-up signal may also include a first dedicated bit field and a second dedicated bit field; the value of the bit in the first dedicated bit field is suitable for characterizing the number of transport blocks selected from the candidate value set for uplink transmission; the value of the bit in the second dedicated bit field is suitable for characterizing the number of transport blocks selected from the candidate value set for downlink transmission.

[0113] In practical implementation, after the base station learns that the user equipment is using multiple transport blocks for data transmission, it can issue a scheduling DCI to the user equipment. The scheduling DCI does not include the bit field used for retransmission of the indicator code block group, and the scheduling DCI includes N bits that correspond one-to-one with the N transport blocks. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable for characterizing whether the corresponding transport block is transmitted. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates mixed transmission of new and retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable for characterizing the data type of the corresponding transport block, which is either new data or retransmission data.

[0114] In practical implementation, the indication signal sent by the base station to the user equipment can also be a common DCI. The common DCI is suitable for indicating whether the user equipment has activated data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling. The common DCI has a dedicated bit field; the value of the dedicated bit in the dedicated bit field is suitable for characterizing whether uplink data transmission and / or downlink data transmission based on multi-transmission block scheduling is activated.

[0115] In practical implementation, the base station can send location information to the user equipment, which indicates the position of the dedicated bit field within the dedicated bit field. In this embodiment of the invention, the base station can send location information to the user equipment via RRC signaling or system broadcast.

[0116] In practice, before sending an indication signal to the user equipment, the base station can also send configuration information to the user equipment. The configuration information includes the number of transport blocks M used in multi-transport block transmission and the corresponding transmission parameter configuration.

[0117] In practical implementation, after the base station learns that the user equipment is using multiple transport blocks for data transmission, it can issue a scheduling DCI to the user equipment. The scheduling DCI does not include the bit field used for retransmission of the indicator code block group, and the scheduling DCI includes M bits that correspond one-to-one with the M transport blocks. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable for characterizing whether the corresponding transport block is transmitted. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates mixed transmission of new and retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable for characterizing the data type of the corresponding transport block, which is either new data or retransmission data.

[0118] In practical implementation, the configuration information sent by the base station to the user equipment may also include a set of candidate values ​​for the number of transport blocks and their corresponding transmission parameter configurations. In this case, a dedicated bit field is set in the public DCI, and the values ​​of the dedicated bits in the dedicated bit field are suitable for representing the number N of transport blocks selected from the candidate value set.

[0119] In specific implementations, the dedicated bit may also include a first sub-partition and a second sub-partition. The value of the bit in the first sub-partition is suitable for characterizing the number of transport blocks selected from the candidate value set for uplink transmission; the value of the bit in the second sub-partition is suitable for characterizing the number of transport blocks selected from the candidate value set for downlink transmission.

[0120] In practical implementation, after the base station learns that the user equipment is using multiple transport blocks for data transmission, it can issue a scheduling DCI to the user equipment. The scheduling DCI does not include the bit field used for retransmission of the indicator code block group, and the scheduling DCI includes N bits that correspond one-to-one with the N transport blocks. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable for characterizing whether the corresponding transport block is transmitted. When the scheduling type indication information of the scheduling DCI indicates mixed transmission of new and retransmission based on transport blocks, the value of each bit is suitable for characterizing the data type of the corresponding transport block, which is either new data or retransmission data.
