Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

[0054] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the spectrum to which they are applied. For example, the embodiments of the present application can be applied to licensed spectrum or unlicensed spectrum.

[0055] For example, the communication system 100 used in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 1 The communication system 100 may include a network device 110, which may be a device that communicates with a terminal device 120 (or a communication terminal or terminal). The network device 110 may provide communication coverage for a specific geographical area and may communicate with terminal devices located in the coverage area.

[0059] It should be understood that the terms "system" and "network" are often used interchangeably in this article. The term "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0060] The embodiments of the present application describe various embodiments in combination with terminal devices and network devices, wherein: the terminal device may also be referred to as user equipment (UE), access terminal, user unit, user station, mobile station, mobile station, remote station, remote terminal, mobile device, user terminal, terminal, wireless communication device, user agent or user device, etc. The terminal device may be a station (STAION, ST) in a WLAN, a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a Wireless Local Loop (WLL) station, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) device, a handheld device with wireless communication function, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, and a next-generation communication system, for example, a terminal device in an NR network or a terminal device in a future evolved Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) network, etc.

[0061] As an example but not limitation, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device may also be a wearable device. Wearable devices may also be referred to as wearable smart devices, which are a general term for wearable devices that are intelligently designed and developed using wearable technology for daily wear, such as glasses, gloves, watches, clothing, and shoes. A wearable device is a portable device that is worn directly on the body or integrated into the user's clothes or accessories. Wearable devices are not only hardware devices, but also powerful functions achieved through software support, data interaction, and cloud interaction. Broadly speaking, wearable smart devices include full-featured, large-sized, and fully or partially independent of smartphones, such as smart watches or smart glasses, as well as devices that only focus on a certain type of application function and need to be used in conjunction with other devices such as smartphones, such as various types of smart bracelets and smart jewelry for vital sign monitoring.

[0062] The network device can be a device used to communicate with a mobile device. The network device can be an access point (AP) in WLAN, a base station (Base Transceiver Station, BTS) in GSM or CDMA, a base station (NodeB, NB) in WCDMA, an evolved base station (Evoutional Node B, eNB or eNodeB) in LTE, or a relay station or access point, or a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, and a network device or base station (gNB) in an NR network, or a network device in a future evolved PLMN network, etc.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present application, a network device provides services for a cell, and a terminal device communicates with the network device through transmission resources (e.g., frequency domain resources, or spectrum resources) used by the cell. The cell may be a cell corresponding to a network device (e.g., a base station). The cell may belong to a macro base station or a base station corresponding to a small cell. The small cells here may include: a metro cell, a micro cell, a picocell, a femtocell, etc. These small cells have the characteristics of small coverage and low transmission power, and are suitable for providing high-speed data transmission services.

[0064] In 5G NR, a CORESET is defined that can determine the RMSI in the cell system information through the SSB on the synchronization grid (raster) point. The RMSI here is a physical layer term, which can also be called the System Information Block (SIB) 1.

[0065] First, during the cell search process of 5G NR, the UE can determine the location of the SSB through the synchronization raster points predefined by the protocol. Then, based on the frequency domain position of the SSB deployed on the synchronization raster frequency point determined as a reference, the UE can determine the location of the CORESET of the RMSI based on the indication of a limited and specific offset.

[0066] Specifically, in 5G NR, Figure 2 As shown, the relationship between SSB and RMSI CORESET can be as follows:

[0067] Case 1 corresponds to the relationship that the CORESET of SSB and RMSI is in time division multiplexing mode (Testing Data Management, TDM);

[0068] Case 2 corresponds to the situation that the CORESET of SSB and RMSI are in a relatively fixed relationship and have no overlap in the time and frequency domains;

[0069] Case 3 corresponds to the situation that the CORESET of SSB and RMSI are in a relatively fixed relationship and are in a frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) relationship.

[0070] For the above three relationships, in 5G NR, the UE determines the location of the CORESET of the RMSI through a field in the Master Information Block (MIB) message. The field consists of 8 bits, of which 4 bits are used to determine the CORESET information and the other 4 bits are used to confirm the search space information. Figure 2 In the three cases, the UE can obtain the CORESET correspondence between SSB and RMSI in the current case, the frequency domain resource size of CORESET (number of resource blocks (RB)), the time domain resource size of CORESET (number of symbols), and the relative frequency domain offset (Offset) of SSB and RMSI CORESET. It is particularly important to note that the definition of offset here is the offset between the minimum RB number of CORESET and the RB number of the smallest common resource block (CRB) that overlaps with the first RB of SSB. In simple terms, it is the offset of RMSI CORESET relative to SSB, and the SSB here is used to define the SSB of the cell, that is, the SSB sent on the synchronous raster frequency point.

[0071] The above method of determining the resource location of the CORESET of RMSI based on the SSB on the synchronous raster point is effective in the 5G system. However, one thing needs to be explained. The premise of the method of determining the resource location of the CORESET of RMSI through the SSB on the synchronous raster point in the 5G system is that the SSB is located on the synchronous raster. That is to say, only when the UE finds an SSB on the synchronous raster frequency point can the location of the corresponding CORESET be determined based on the SSB.

[0072] The above assumptions are the design basis of 5G NR. However, in unlicensed frequency bands, due to the need to discover cells and determine the SIB information of cells on non-synchronized raster frequencies, the above assumptions and designs will no longer apply.

[0073] Since the unlicensed frequency band is a shared frequency band, different operators or companies may share the same frequency band or frequency point, and at this time, each network user will compete to use limited channel resources. A new problem that arises at this time is that if two operators A and B deploy cells ID25 (A) and ID25 (B) with the same cell ID at the same frequency, and these two cells are used as auxiliary cells, their synchronization signals or SSBs can be deployed and sent at the frequency point of the non-synchronous raster. In addition, in this case, for a certain UE, there will be a need to determine network information such as PLMN, Cell Global Identity (CGI) or global cell identification (Identity, ID) information through SIB1 or other broadcast messages, because only in this way can different operator information be distinguished, thereby avoiding cell confusion and potential misscheduling caused by different operators deploying cells with the same cell ID at the same frequency point.

[0074] A feasible solution is to constrain the frequency position of a unique synchronization grid (SS raster) in each subband. When the UE detects SSB in a subband, the UE determines the SS raster position in the subband. Then the UE uses the SS raster position or a specific position associated with the SS raster as a corresponding reference point (such as a reference SSB) and obtains the resource position of the CORESET of the RMSI based on the reference point, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0075] like Figure 3 The scheme shown assumes that the CORESET of SSB and RMSI are in the same specific subband. For example, when the subband is 20MHz, the UE can determine the unique SS raster position in the subband through the SSB position. However, for example, when a cell is 80MHz, the base station can send SSB in the first 20MHz subband and send the CORESET of RMSI in another 20MHz subband. This helps to avoid resource collision between SSB and RMSI control information and SSB and RMSI data information in one subband. In the above situation, after the UE detects an SSB, it cannot determine the resource location of the RMSI control information and data information. For example, if it determines the subband where the RMSI is located, it cannot determine the CORESET position of the RMSI.

[0076] Based on the above technical problem, the present application proposes a method for determining RMSI positions based on SSB between different sub-bands.

[0077] The following is a detailed description of the solution designed by the present application to determine the CORESET position of RMSI based on SSB between different sub-bands in response to the above technical problems.

[0083] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal device executes step S230, the network device may not necessarily execute step S240. Similarly, when the network device executes step S240, the terminal device may not necessarily execute step S230.

[0127] It should be understood that the upward k sub-bands refer to a sub-band from a smaller frequency to a sub-band with a larger frequency, and the downward k sub-bands refer to a sub-band from a larger frequency to a sub-band with a smaller frequency.

[0128] In the above Table 2, the value of the first indication information is 111, indicating a CORESET without RMSI, that is, the network device does not send RMSI in the first cell, that is, does not send RMSI control information and data information in the first cell.

[0129] It should be noted that the correspondence between the offset between the subband where the first reference SSB is located and the subband where the SSB is located in the above Table 2 and the value of the first indication information is only an example. The specific correspondence can be flexibly configured according to actual needs, and this application does not limit this.

[0130] Optionally, in Example 1, the network device may indicate the offset between the subband where the first synchronization grid is located and the subband where the SSB is located through a 3-bit first indication information, as shown in Table 3. The first synchronization grid and the control resource set of the RMSI are in the same subband, or there is a second correspondence between the subband where the first synchronization grid is located and the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located. The terminal device determines the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located based on the subband where the first synchronization grid is located. The network device determines the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located based on the subband where the first synchronization grid is located. For example, in Example 1, the first indication information takes a value of 101, that is, the subband where the SSB is located is 2 subbands above the subband where the first synchronization grid is located. Optionally, the second correspondence is pre-configured, or the second correspondence is configured by the network device, or the second correspondence is indicated by the first indication information.

[0131] Table 3

[0132]

[0133] In the above Table 3, 3 indicates that the subband 3 subbands below the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, 2 indicates that the subband 2 subbands below the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, -1 indicates that the subband 1 subband below the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, 0 indicates that the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, 1 indicates that the subband 1 subband above the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, 2 indicates that the subband 2 subbands above the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, and 3 indicates that the subband 3 subbands above the subband where the SSB is located is the subband where the first synchronization grid is located.

[0134] It should be understood that the upward k sub-bands refer to a sub-band from a smaller frequency to a sub-band with a larger frequency, and the downward k sub-bands refer to a sub-band from a larger frequency to a sub-band with a smaller frequency.

[0135] In the above Table 3, the value of the first indication information is 111, indicating a CORESET without RMSI, that is, the network device does not send RMSI in the first cell, that is, does not send RMSI control information and data information in the first cell.

[0136] It should be noted that the correspondence between the offset between the subband where the first synchronization grid is located and the subband where the SSB is located in the above Table 3 and the value of the first indication information is only an example. The specific correspondence can be flexibly configured according to actual needs, and this application does not limit this.

[0137] Optionally, as Example 2, Figure 5 As shown, the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell is 80MHz, and the first cell is processed as 4 20MHz sub-bands. The network device sends SSB in the first 20MHz sub-band and sends the CORESET of RMSI in the third 20MHz sub-band. The network device can indicate that the CORESET of RMSI is located in the third 20MHz sub-band through the second indication information and the third indication information. Specifically, the second indication information is used to indicate the sub-band identifier where the SSB is located, and the third indication is used to indicate the sub-band identifier where the CORESET of RMSI is located.

[0138] For example, the second indication information and / or the third indication information is carried in the load of the PBCH in the first cell, or the second indication information and / or the third indication information is carried in the MIB in the first cell.

[0139] Optionally, in Embodiment 2, the network device may indicate the subband identifier of the SSB through 2-bit second indication information, as shown in Table 4, and indicate the subband identifier of the CORESET of the RMSI through 2-bit third indication information, as shown in Table 5. For example, in Embodiment 2, the second indication information takes a value of 00, that is, the subband identifier of the SSB is 0, and the third indication information takes a value of 10, that is, the subband identifier of the CORESET of the RMSI is 2. The terminal device may determine the positions of subband 1, subband 2, and subband 3 accordingly based on the information in Tables 4 and 5, when the subband identifier of the subband where the SSB is located in Table 4 is 0, combined with the subband of the SSB actually detected, as shown in Table 5. Figure 5 Then, when the third indication information indicates that the subband identifier of the subband where the CORESET of the RMSI is located is 2, the terminal device also determines the position of the subband where the CORESET of the RMSI is located.

[0140] Second instruction information The identifier of the subband where SSB is located 00 0 01 1 10 2 11 3

[0141] The third instruction information The identifier of the subband where the CORESET of RMSI is located 00 0 01 1 10 2 11 3

[0142] It should be noted that the correspondence between the identifier of the subband where the SSB is located and the value of the second indication information in the above Table 4 is only an example, and its specific correspondence can be flexibly configured according to actual needs, and this application does not limit this. And the correspondence between the identifier of the subband where the CORESET of the RMSI is located in the above Table 5 and the value of the third indication information is only an example, and its specific correspondence can be flexibly configured according to actual needs, and this application does not limit this.

[0143] Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located can be determined based on the subband where the first SSB is located. Thus, the CORESET position of the RMSI can be determined when the SSB and RMSI CORESET are in different subbands, thereby improving the flexibility of the SSB transmission position. In addition, this flexibility is also conducive to avoiding resource collisions between the control information and data information of the SSB and RMSI.

[0144] Figure 6 is a schematic flow chart of a wireless communication method 300 according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 6 As shown, the method 300 may include part or all of the following contents:

[0150] S360: The network device determines that the subband where the first synchronization grid in the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell is located is the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located.

[0151] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal device executes steps S330 and S340, the network device may not necessarily execute steps S350 and S360. Similarly, when the network device executes steps S350 and S360, the terminal device may not necessarily execute steps S330 and S340.

[0152] In the embodiment of the present application, the wireless communication method 300 can be applicable to an unlicensed frequency band or a licensed frequency band.

[0153] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first synchronization grid is the only synchronization grid in the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell.

[0154] Optionally, after determining the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located, the terminal device may determine the location of the control resource set of the RMSI based on the relative frequency domain offset between the reference SSB in the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located and the control resource set of the RMSI and the location information of the reference SSB. Alternatively, after determining the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, the terminal device may determine the location of the control resource set of the RMSI based on the relative frequency domain offset between the reference SSB in the subband where the first synchronization grid is located and the control resource set of the RMSI and the location information of the reference SSB.

[0155] Similarly, after determining the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located, the network device can determine the location of the control resource set of the RMSI based on the relative frequency domain offset between the reference SSB in the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located and the control resource set of the RMSI and the location information of the reference SSB. Alternatively, after determining the subband where the first synchronization grid is located, the network device can determine the location of the control resource set of the RMSI based on the relative frequency domain offset between the reference SSB in the subband where the first synchronization grid is located and the control resource set of the RMSI and the location information of the reference SSB.

[0156] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell is greater than or equal to 20 MHz.

[0157] For example, the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell is 40 MHz, 60 MHz or 80 MHz.

[0158] A 40MHz cell may be used as two 20MHz subbands, for example, respectively recorded as subband 0 and subband 1. A 60MHz cell may be used as three 20MHz subbands, for example, respectively recorded as subband 0, subband 1 and subband 2. A 80MHz cell may be used as four 20MHz subbands, for example, respectively recorded as subband 0, subband 1, subband 2 and subband 3.

[0160] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the network device may send the first SSB on a synchronization grid or an asynchronous grid in the first cell. That is, the terminal device may receive the first SSB on a synchronization grid or an asynchronous grid in the first cell.

[0161] Further, the network device may send the first SSB at the frequency of the synchronization grid or the frequency of the non-synchronization grid in the first cell. That is, the terminal device may receive the first SSB at the frequency of the synchronization grid or the frequency of the non-synchronization grid in the first cell.

[0162] It should be noted that the network device can send the first SSB by broadcasting a system message, and the terminal device can receive the first SSB by detecting the system message.

[0163] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first indication information is carried in a load of a PBCH in the first cell, or the first indication information is carried in an MIB in the first cell.

[0164] Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell can be determined based on the first indication information in the first SSB, and the subband where the first synchronization grid in the frequency domain bandwidth of the first cell is located can be determined as the subband where the control resource set of the RMSI is located. Thus, the CORESET position of the RMSI can be determined when the SSB and RMSI CORESET are in different subbands, thereby improving the flexibility of the SSB transmission position. In addition, this flexibility is also conducive to avoiding resource collisions between the control information and data information of the SSB and RMSI.
