[0168] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0169] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for adjusting the spatial relationship or propagation direction of PDCCH and PDSCH in a related technology. Taking Single Sideband (SSB) as an example, the terminal typically assumes that relatively stable energy measurement information can be obtained after five measurements, and determines whether the beam quality meets subsequent operational requirements, or selects a better beam. After the terminal performs five or more measurements, it uses the reference signal receiving power (L1-RSRP) of the uplink feedback layer 1. Based on the information fed back by the terminal, the base station determines whether to update CORESET or PDSCH.

[0170] Based on the information fed back by the terminal, the base station determines whether the CORESET or PDSCH needs to be updated, and then performs the update operation. Specifically, the spatial relationships between the CORESET (the set of control resources configured for transmitting downlink control information (DCI)) and PDSCH are updated through independent MAC CEs.

[0171] Specifically, without any enhancements, the base station sends two MAC CE messages to update the spatial relationship between CORESET and PDSCH. This spatial relationship indicates at least the beam direction, transmission direction, spatial transmission direction, (transmit or receive) spatial filtering, quasi-co-location information (QCL) or type, spatial state, spatial information, and the base station's scheduling direction for the terminal. After receiving the updated spatial information of the CORESET MAC CE, the terminal receives data according to the new spatial relationship. For PDSCH, the UE is further informed of the specific direction used via the Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) in the Downlink Control Information (DCI). For a MAC CE to take effect, the corresponding spatial relationship between CORESET and PDSCH will only become effective after the UE sends the uplink acknowledgment (ACK) message for that MAC CE and then waits for 3ms. However, it is generally difficult to guarantee that the two MAC CEs will be sent simultaneously and accurately received by the UE in one go. In other words, the transmission and activation of MAC CE will cause changes in spatial relationships, resulting in delays.

[0172] Afterwards, the UE receives the CORESET and PDCCH based on the new spatial relationship indicated by the MAC CE, and receives the TCI information of the corresponding PDSCH on the PDCCH. At this point, it needs to wait for a time threshold (timeDurationForQCL) before it can transmit or receive the corresponding PDSCH downlink. This time threshold is mainly used for DCI resolution and UE adjustment of spatial relationships such as quasi-collocation (QCL). After completing the reception of the PDSCH, the UE sends feedback to the base station to confirm whether the transmission was correct.

[0173] In related technologies, the methods for configuring the spatial relationship between control channels and data channels are as follows:

[0174] For the spatial configuration of CORESET (such as beam direction):

[0175] If only one TCI state is configured in the RRC, the beam direction of the CORESET will be configured according to the state of this TCI. If an update is required, it needs to be reconfigured through the RRC configuration, which is time-consuming.

[0176] If the RRC is configured with multiple TCI states, then MAC CE needs to be used to indicate one of them in order to configure the beam direction of CORESET;

[0177] If the RRC is configured with the status of multiple TCIs and there is no indication from MAC CE, then the assumptions are made based on the spatial relationship of the SSBs at initial access.

[0178] For the configuration of PDSCH spatial relationships (such as beam direction):

[0179] Specifically, this is achieved through RRC configuration and MAC CE selection. In detail:

[0180] The state of 8 TCIs can be configured via RRC, and one of the TCIs can be used to indicate the beam direction of the PDSCH. However, the timing of data transmission must be greater than or equal to the time threshold (timeDurationForQCL).

[0181] If RRC configuration is complete but there is no MAC CE indication, the initial access SSB will be used directly.

[0182] If RRC configuration is complete and MAC CE also indicates this, but the time threshold (timeDurationForQCL) has not been reached after the DCI indication, then the TCI status of the nearest slot with the smallest CORESET ID is used.

[0183] The time threshold (timeDurationForQCL) is explained as follows:

[0184] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a time threshold implementation; such as... Figure 2 As shown,

[0185] When the subcarrier spacing (SCS) is 120kHz, it occupies 14 or 28 symbols, that is, after 1-2 slots;

[0186] The time threshold is mainly used for: 1) processing downlink control information (DCI), and 2) processing quasi-public address (QCL) port adjustment.

[0187] As mentioned above, since a time-duration-for-QCL (Time Duration For QCL) is required after the PDCCH (Power Distribution Channel) before PDSCH (Power Distribution Channel) transmission can occur, the introduction of timeDurationForQCL means that almost all high-frequency transmissions are scheduled across slots. This makes base station design and scheduling algorithms more complex, requiring consideration of the transmission directions of two or more slots simultaneously, as well as how to schedule them.

[0188] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of resource scheduling; for example... Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 In Slot 1, S1 represents PDCCH, which schedules S2 of Slot 3 or S3 of Slot 4; S2 of Slot 3 and S4 of Slot 4 are the corresponding scheduled PDSCH; Slot 1 can schedule part of PDSCH of Slot 3 or PDSCH of Slot 4.

[0189] If the time duration does not meet the timeDurationForQCL requirement, it is necessary to find the QCL or TCI state corresponding to the smallest CORESET ID within the nearest slot as the reference for the PDSCH demodulation reference signal (DMRS). On one hand, it cannot be guaranteed that the direction the base station schedules for the UE will always be the direction with the smallest CORESET ID. If two CORESETs overlap in time, it is very likely that the UE will not be scheduled in the required direction. On the other hand, CORESET#0 cannot always be used for similar transmissions. CORESET#0 is primarily used for communication with the SSB and carries a lot of common control information; it cannot always be used to carry these UE-specific service transmissions, and its capacity is limited.

[0190] Furthermore, as mentioned above, the spatial relationship between CORESET and PDSCH is updated separately through two MAC CEs. It cannot be guaranteed that the two MAC CEs will be sent simultaneously, or that the time difference will be within an acceptable range to reduce latency. The 3ms MAC CE activation time is also unavoidable. Therefore, the existing technology still has significant room for improvement in meeting and supporting higher mobile speeds.

[0191] Based on this, in various embodiments of the present invention, the second communication device sends first information to the terminal; the first communication device receives first information from the network device; the first information is used to indicate a first spatial relationship; the first spatial relationship is used to transmit control information and / or data information.

[0192] This invention provides a data transmission method applied to a first communication device, which can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop, computer, or other terminal. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0193] Step 401: Receive first information from the network device; the first information is used to indicate a first spatial relationship;

[0194] The first spatial relationship is used for the transmission of control information and / or data information.

[0195] That is, the first spatial relationship can be used only to indicate the direction of the control channel; or it can cover the direction of both the control channel (transmitting CORESET or PDCCH) and the data channel (transmitting PDSCH).

[0196] In practical applications, considering that the effective time of the first spatial relationship (i.e., the time when it is determined to be used) must be waited for, changes to the spatial relationship will cause delays. To improve communication efficiency, the effective time can be set to meet and support situations with higher movement speeds.

[0197] Based on this, in one embodiment, a method for determining the usage time (i.e., the effective time) is provided.

[0198] Specifically, the method may further include:

[0199] Receive time information; the time information is used to indicate the usage time of the first spatial relationship.

[0200] Based on the time information, the terminal can determine at which point in time control information and / or data information can be transmitted according to the first spatial relationship.

[0201] Here, the first information may carry the time information, so that the time when the first spatial relationship indicated by the first information is used can be determined based on the time information.

[0202] The time information can also be sent separately, thereby determining the usage time of the first spatial relationship indicated by the first information based on the received time information.

[0203] Here, the time information includes the slot offset indicated in the Time Domain Resource Assignment (TDRA).

[0204] In another embodiment, another method for determining the time of use is provided.

[0205] Specifically, the method may further include:

[0206] Send feedback information corresponding to the first information; the feedback information is used to explain that the first spatial relationship is used.

[0207] Accordingly, the base station receives the feedback information and determines that the first spatial relationship is being used.

[0208] The feedback information for the first piece of information can be HARQ-ACK information.

[0209] Specifically, after receiving feedback information such as an acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) message indicating the first spatial relationship, the base station considers that the spatial relationship indicated by the first information has been used; the terminal considers that it can receive the next CORESET after the feedback information is sent, that is, the terminal can receive the second CORESET or all CORESETs according to the corresponding first spatial relationship.

[0210] In other words, once the terminal sends feedback information, it can be assumed that the first spatial relationship has been used.

[0211] In a real-time example, receiving the first information from the network device includes at least one of the following:

[0212] The transmission configuration indication-states (TCI-States) are received from the physical downlink control information (DCI, downlink control information) sent by the PDCCH scheduled by the first CORESET network device.

[0213] The receiving network device uses the TCI-States in the DCI sent by the first PDCCH;

[0214] Wherein, the first CORESET and / or the first PDCCH are configured based on RRC or MAC CE;

[0215] The first CORESET and / or the first PDCCH are used to indicate the first spatial relationship.

[0216] The network device can be a base station.

[0217] Here, spatial relationships can be configured through a specific first CORESET or first PDCCH. That is, the first CORESET can be a CORESET specifically configured via RRC or MAC CE to indicate spatial status; the first PDCCH can be a downlink control channel specifically configured via RRC or MAC CE to indicate spatial status.

[0218] The first spatial relationship is the TCI-States information in the DCI on the PDCCH sent on the first CORESET, or the TCI-States information indicated by the DCI on the first PDCCH;

[0219] The spatial relationships indicated by the TCI mentioned above can be a set of spatial relationships based on RRC configuration or MAC CE activation or update.

[0220] In conjunction with the aforementioned time information, the DCI carried on the first CORESET or the first PDCCH may contain a time for scheduling data transmission, that is, the time information can be used to indicate that at this moment, the first spatial relationship takes effect.

[0221] In one embodiment, the first spatial relationship is used to indicate at least one of the following:

[0222] Indicates the spatial relationship of PDSCHs scheduled on the second CORESET and the second CORESET;

[0223] Indicates the spatial relationship of PDSCHs scheduled on the second PDCCH and the second PDCCH.

[0224] The second CORESET includes at least one of the following: a CORESET configured for at least one terminal (including one or more or all terminals), a system-configured CORESET, or a system-indicated CORESET.

[0225] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0226] According to the first spatial relationship, receive the second information; the second information includes at least one of the following: second CORESET, second PDCCH;

[0228] The second CORESET includes at least one of the following: a CORESET configured for at least one terminal (including one or more or all terminals), a CORESET configured by the system, or a CORESET indicated by the system.

[0229] Here, the second information does not include information indicating spatial relationships; that is,

[0230] The second CORESET may not contain information indicating spatial relationships; that is, the second CORESET may not be used to indicate spatial relationships.

[0231] The second PDCCH may not contain information indicating spatial relationships; that is, the second PDCCH may not be used to indicate spatial relationships.

[0232] Specifically, after receiving the first spatial relationship, the terminal can receive the second CORESET, all CORESETs, or the second PDCCH on the first spatial relationship;

[0233] The first PDSCH transmission scheduled by the terminal on the aforementioned second CORESET (referring to the CORESET for the terminal, or the CORESET for multiple or all terminals) or the second PDCCH (both the second CORESET and the second PDCCH are collectively referred to as the second information) is demodulated using the first spatial relationship demodulation. That is, the terminal can assume that the PDSCH scheduled by the second CORESET or the second PDCCH can be received and demodulated using the first spatial relationship. The downlink DCI information of the second PDCCH may not contain TCI states.

[0234] According to the first spatial relationship, the UE sends uplink HARQ-ACK feedback information for PDSCH or PUCCH.

[0235] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0236] The PDSCH is received on at least one symbol after the second information is received.

[0237] Specifically, the PDSCH can be the next symbol after the last symbol corresponding to the PDCCH. The UE does not need to wait for a time threshold and can receive the first PDSCH on several symbols after receiving the second PDCCH.

[0238] In one embodiment, the method further includes at least one of the following:

[0242] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0243] Before receiving the second spatial relationship indicated by the third information, control information and / or data information are transmitted according to the first spatial relationship indicated by the first information.

[0244] Accordingly, before receiving the feedback information, the base station continues to transmit according to the spatial relationship previously indicated.

[0245] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0246] Step 402: Transmit control information and / or data information according to the first spatial relationship.

[0247] Specifically, in one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0248] According to the first spatial relationship, transmit the specified information on the first channel;

[0249] The transmission of specified information includes at least one of the following: transmission of feedback information, transmission of channel state information, transmission of channel sounding reference signal (SRS), transmission of PUCCH data, and transmission of PUSCH data.

[0250] Here, according to the first spatial relationship, it can refer to spatial filtering, spatial transmission filtering, spatial setting, etc., as indicated by the first spatial relationship.

[0251] Specifically, the corresponding spatial relationship (such as the first spatial relationship mentioned above, the second spatial relationship mentioned above, etc.) includes at least one of the following:

[0252] Quasi-co-location (QCL), Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI), Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, delay spread, spatial RX parameters, Antenna portsquasi-co-location, spatial domain transmission filter, spatial domain receive filter, Spatial Relation Info, Spatial filter, Spatial transmission filter, Spatial setting;

[0253] The QCL includes at least: the type of QCL and the assumed QCL;

[0254] The TCI includes at least: TCI states.

[0255] Correspondingly, embodiments of the present invention also provide a data transmission method applied to a second communication device, which may be a base station; such as Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0256] Step 501: Send first information to the terminal; the first information is used to indicate a first spatial relationship; the first spatial relationship is used to transmit control information and / or data information.

[0257] Specifically, sending the first information to the terminal includes at least one of the following:

[0258] The PDCCH, scheduled using the first CORESET, sends the Transmission Configuration Indication-States (TCI-States) in the Downlink Control Information (DCI) to the terminal.

[0259] The first PDCCH is used to send the TCI-States in the DCI to the terminal;

[0260] Wherein, the first CORESET is used to indicate spatial relationships; the first CORESET is configured based on RRC or MACCE.

[0261] The first PDCCH is used to indicate spatial relationships; the first CORESET is configured based on RRC or MAC CE.

[0262] Here, spatial relationships can be configured through a specific first CORESET or first PDCCH. That is, the first CORESET can be a CORESET specifically configured via RRC or MMC CE to indicate spatial status; the first PDCCH can be a downlink control channel specifically configured via RRC or MMC CE to indicate spatial status.

[0263] The first spatial relationship is the TCI-States in the DCI on the PDCCH sent on the first CORESET, or the TCI-States indicated by the DCI on the first PDCCH;

[0264] The spatial relationships or spatial information indicated by the TCI mentioned above can be a set of spatial relationships based on RRC configuration or MAC CE activation or update.

[0265] In one embodiment, a method is provided for determining the time of use (i.e., the effective time).

[0266] Specifically, the method further includes:

[0267] Send time information, which is used to indicate the usage time of the first spatial relationship.

[0268] The usage time can also be understood as the time when the first spatial relationship is used or the effective time. That is to say, the spatial relationship becomes effective after the corresponding usage time; downlink control information, downlink data information, and uplink feedback information sent after the usage time are all transmitted according to the first spatial relationship.

[0269] The time information includes the time slot offset indicated in the Time Domain Resource Allocation (TD-RA).

[0270] In another embodiment, another method for determining the time of use is provided.

[0271] Specifically, the method further includes:

[0272] After receiving feedback information from the receiving terminal in response to the first information, it is determined that the first spatial relationship has been used.

[0273] Here, the time when the base station receives the feedback information of the first information can be considered as the effective time of the first spatial relationship.

[0274] Accordingly, the terminal needs to send feedback information corresponding to the first information; the feedback information is used to explain that the first spatial relationship is used.

[0275] Specifically, after receiving feedback information such as an acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) message indicating the first spatial relationship, the base station considers that the spatial relationship indicated by the first information has been used; the terminal considers that it can receive the next CORESET after the feedback information is sent, that is, the terminal can receive the second CORESET or all CORESETs according to the corresponding first spatial relationship.

[0282] The second CORESET includes at least one of the following: a CORESET configured for at least one terminal (including one or more or all terminals), a CORESET configured by the system, or a CORESET indicated by the system.

[0283] Here, the second information does not include information indicating spatial relationships; that is,

[0285] The second PDCCH may not contain information indicating spatial relationships; that is, the third PDCCH may not be used to indicate spatial relationships.

[0286] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0287] The PDSCH is transmitted on at least one symbol after the second information is transmitted.

[0288] Specifically, PDSCH can be the symbol following the last symbol of PDCCH. The terminal does not need to wait for the timeduration for QCL and can receive the first PDSCH on several symbols after receiving the second PDCCH.

[0289] In one embodiment, the method further includes at least one of the following:

[0290] According to the first spatial relationship, the receiving terminal sends feedback information to the PDSCH;

[0291] According to the first spatial relationship, receive PUCCH information.

[0292] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0293] Before receiving the feedback information, control information and / or data information are transmitted according to the previously indicated spatial relationship.

[0294] Specifically, before receiving the feedback information regarding the first spatial relationship, the first spatial relationship is not considered to be effective or to have been correctly received or transmitted, and control information and / or data information are transmitted according to the spatial relationship previously indicated before the first spatial relationship was indicated.

[0295] Accordingly, before receiving the second spatial relationship indicated by the third information, the terminal transmits control information and / or data information according to the first spatial relationship indicated by the first information.

[0296] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0297] The receiving terminal sends control information on the first channel indicated by the first spatial relationship;

[0301] The QCL includes at least: the type of QCL and the assumed QCL;

[0302] The TCI includes at least: TCI state.

[0303] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to application examples.

[0304] Example 1: A method for indicating spatial relationships is provided.

[0305] The first method is as follows:

[0306] Step 001: Configure the base station with the first CORESET (denoted as CORESET#1);

[0307] The CORESET#1 is used to indicate the UE's subsequent spatial relationships (equivalent to...). Figure 4 The first spatial relation in the method shown).

[0308] The spatial relationship is used at least to indicate beam direction, propagation direction, spatial transmission direction, spatial state, and the scheduling direction of the spatial information base station for the terminal.

[0309] Step 002: After receiving the first TCI state indicated by the PDCCH on CORESET#1 (denoted as TCI#1, TCI#1 is used to indicate the first spatial relationship), the UE performs at least one of the following according to the first spatial relationship indicated by TCI#1:

[0310] Receive subsequent second CORESETs or receive PDCCH information on all subsequent CORESETs in the first spatial relationship;

[0311] Receive PDSCH scheduled on PDCCH, and provide HARQ-ACK feedback for the transmission of PDSCH in the first spatial relationship, or perform uplink transmission of PUCCH, SRS, and PUSCH in the first spatial relationship.

[0312] It should be noted that before the UE receives the new TCI-States indicated by the control channel carried on the first CORESET, it will transmit according to the spatial relationship indicated by TCI#1.

[0313] The usage time of spatial relationships is explained as follows:

[0314] In one embodiment, the UE may consider that the first spatial relationship is used after receiving the first spatial relationship indicated by CORESET#1 and feeding back the corresponding first HARQ-ACK information; accordingly, the base station considers that the spatial relationship is used after receiving the first HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the first spatial relationship sent by CORESET#1.

[0315] In another embodiment, the UE may consider the time when the data transmission indicated on CORESET#1 is received as the time when the first spatial relationship is used.

[0316] That is, the UE may not feed back HARQ-ACK information, and the UE may consider the first spatial relationship to be effective according to the time specified in the protocol or the agreed time.

[0317] For example, it can be specified or agreed that it will take effect X symbols or N slots after the time indicated on CORESET#1 is received.

[0318] Example 2: Providing another method for indicating spatial relationships.

[0319] Step 011: Configure the first PDCCH (denoted as PDCCH#1) at the base station;

[0320] The PDCCH#1 is used to indicate the UE's subsequent spatial relationship or spatial transmission direction (equivalent to...). Figure 4 The first spatial relation in the method shown).

[0321] Step 012: After receiving the first TCI (denoted as TCI#1, which is used to indicate the first spatial relationship) indicated on PDCCH#1, the UE will receive the second PDCCH (denoted as PDCCH#2) and the PDSCH information scheduled on the second PDCCH according to the first spatial relationship indicated by TCI#1; and perform HARQ-ACK feedback on the transmission of PDSCH on the first spatial relationship indicated by TCI#1, or perform uplink transmission of PUCCH, SRS, and PUSCH on the first spatial relationship.

[0322] Here, both the first PDCCH and the second PDCCH are downlink control channels configured or designated by the system.

[0323] This invention provides a data transmission method for adjusting spatial relationships, such as... Figure 6 As shown, taking SSB as an example, the terminal generally assumes that relatively stable energy measurement information can be obtained after 5 measurements, and judges whether the beam quality meets the subsequent working requirements, or selects a better beam. After the terminal performs 5 or more measurements, it will pass through the uplink feedback layer 1 RSRP (L1-RSRP). The base station determines whether it needs to update CORESET or PDSCH based on the information fed back by the UE. Based on the UE feedback, the base station determines the transmission direction or spatial filtering (equivalent to a spatial relationship) of CORESET or PDSCH that needs to be updated, and then performs the update operation. Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0324] Step 601: The base station sends PDCCH according to CORESET#1 (equivalent to a first information) to indicate TCI#1 at the next moment;

[0325] Here, TCI#1 is used to indicate the transmission direction of the next CORESET (denoted as CORESET#2).

[0326] The transmission direction of the CORESET is equivalent to Figure 4 and Figure 5 One type of spatial relationship in the method shown.

[0327] The next moment can be a specific transmission time; thus, the transmission direction or spatial filtering indicated by TCI#1 (all transmission directions can be equivalent to spatial filtering) can take effect at the corresponding transmission time.

[0328] Step 602: The terminal sends HARQ-ACK information via uplink PUCCH to indicate that TCI#1 has been correctly received;

[0329] Specifically, when the terminal receives the TCI#1 information transmitted on CORESET#1 and demodulates it correctly, it can confirm the correct reception and send a HARQ-ACK message, which is a positive acknowledgment message (ACK, A Positive Acknowledgment) or 1; if it is not correctly received or demodulated, it sends a negative acknowledgment message (NACK, A Negative Acknowledgment) or 0.

[0330] Step 603: The base station sends a PDCCH schedule on CORESET#2 and indicates the actual transmission of the PDSCH;

[0331] Step 603 can save time for MAC CE transmission, ACK feedback, and agreed MAC CE activation time, such as waiting 3ms after receiving ACK information;

[0332] This saves time by eliminating the time threshold of timeDurationForQCL, which includes decoding and antenna port adjustment. Existing systems need to wait for the time threshold of timeDurationForQCL after correctly receiving the DCI before receiving in the direction indicated by the DCI.

[0333] Step 604: The terminal reports that the PDSCH transmission is correct via the uplink PUCCH.

[0334] For example, you can send a message carrying HARQ-ACK, such as ACK or NACK.

[0335] Step 605: The base station continues to transmit data on the spatial filter indicated by TCI#1, sends PDCCH scheduling on CORESET#2, and indicates the transmission of PDSCH;

[0336] Here, if CORESET#2 does not contain TCI status information, the TCI status used in the previous scheduling will continue, that is, the transmission will proceed according to the beam direction indicated by TCI#1.

[0337] That is, CORESET#2 can continue to schedule PDSCH transmission when transmitting at the next time moment;

[0338] CORESET#2 always uses the state of TCI#1, and does not indicate the state of TCI when scheduling PDSCH; it continuously transmits on CORESET#2 according to the state of TCI#1 (in the case of high speed, this can be the main focus, and there is no need to pay attention to other CORESETs).

[0339] Step 606: The terminal reports that the PDSCH transmission is correct via the uplink PUCCH.

[0340] Step 607: Send PDCCH scheduling on CORESET#2 to indicate TCI#2 at the next moment;

[0341] Here, TCI#2 is used to indicate the transmission direction or spatial filtering of the next CORESET (denoted as CORESET#3);

[0342] Step 608: The terminal sends HARQ-ACK information via uplink PUCCH to indicate that TCI#2 has been correctly received;

[0343] For details, please refer to the explanation of step 602 above, which uses ACK or NACK to send an acknowledgment message or a denial message. Further details will not be provided here.

[0344] The transmission direction of CORESET is updated through steps 607 and 608.
