[0031] The technical solutions provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.
[0032] Figure 2 shows a flowchart of an uplink transmission method 200 provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application. The method 200 can be executed by a terminal, for example, by hardware and / or software installed in the terminal. The method 200 may include the following steps.
[0033] S210, determine the first duration based on the first information.
[0034] Wherein, the first duration is the time required for the terminal to maintain power and / or phase continuity during one or more uplink transmissions. In this embodiment, the first information may include at least one of the following (1)-(7).
[0035] (1) The number of time units indicated by the network-side device.
[0036] The time unit can be a slot, a sub-slot, a symbol subframe, a radio frame, etc.
[0037] For example, assuming the first duration is determined only based on (1), then the first duration can be equal to the number of time units indicated by the network-side device. For example, if the number of time units indicated by the network-side device is L time units, such as 2 slots, then the first duration is 2 slots.
[0038] It should be noted that the "time unit" mentioned in the following embodiments can be a time slot, sub-time slot, symbol, subframe, radio frame, etc., which will not be elaborated further.
[0039] (2) The number of repeated transmissions of the first uplink transmission as indicated by the network-side device.
[0040] If the number of repeated transmissions of the first uplink transmission indicated by the network-side device is N, and the first duration is determined only based on (2), then the first duration can be the number of time units corresponding to the N repeated transmissions of the first uplink transmission.
[0041] (3) The number of consecutive / quasi-consecutive time units occupied by at least one of the plurality of first uplink transmissions.
[0042] Wherein, the continuous / quasi-continuous satisfies at least one of the following requirements (3a)-(3e).
[0043] (3a) The time interval (gap) on the time domain resources is not greater than the third threshold.
[0044] (3b) The interval time on the time domain resources is not greater than the predetermined number of symbols threshold.
[0045] (3c) The number of intervals on the time-domain resources is not greater than the fourth threshold.
[0046] (3d) The number of intervals on the time domain resources is not greater than the longest duration of the first duration reported by the terminal.
[0047] (3e) There is no interval in the time domain resources, that is, in the absence of interval, they can be considered continuous.
[0048] In the preceding (3a)-(3e), the interval may be located at the middle position or other positions on the time domain resource. The time domain resource can be understood as a time domain resource corresponding to one or more first uplink transmissions. For example, when the time domain resource is a time domain resource corresponding to one first uplink transmission, the interval may be located at the middle position of the one first uplink transmission; when the time domain resource is a time domain resource corresponding to multiple first uplink transmissions, the interval may be located between two adjacent first uplink transmissions, or on any one of the multiple first uplink transmissions, without any limitation.
[0049] In addition, the size of the aforementioned interval, the third threshold, the symbol number threshold, and the fourth threshold can be configured by the network side or agreed upon by the protocol, and are not restricted here.
[0050] In one implementation, if the first duration is determined based on the number of consecutive / quasi-consecutive time units occupied by at least one of the plurality of first uplink transmissions shown in (3) above, then when performing a plurality of first uplink transmissions based on the first duration, the first uplink transmissions performed within the number of consecutive / quasi-consecutive time units can use the frequency domain resources at the same location.
[0051] (4) Configured uplink / downlink resources.
[0052] The uplink / downlink resource configuration can be configured by the network side, such as the configuration of uplink symbols (U), downlink symbols (D), or flexible symbols (S), and the configuration of uplink / downlink slots for Time Division Duplex (TDD).
[0053] (5) Specifies the time-domain resource length of the nominal transmission of the channel.
[0054] The time-domain resource length may be, but is not limited to, greater than one slot, and the designated channel includes the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) and / or the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH).
[0055] (6) Specify time resources.
[0056] The specified time resource refers to the time-domain resource corresponding to the demodulation reference signal (DMRS) used to determine the one or more first uplink transmissions. In this embodiment, the DMRS may include at least one of DMRS bundling, DMRS sharing, or other DMRS optimized transmission methods. Furthermore, the aforementioned "time-domain resource corresponding to the DMRS" can be understood as the time-domain resource used to determine the DMRS transmission, not the time-domain resource actually occupied by the DMRS.
[0057] For example, assuming the first duration is determined solely based on (6), then if the plurality of uplink transmissions use DMRS bundling and / or DMRS sharing and / or optimize DMRS transmission in time / frequency domain resources, the terminal considers its corresponding time resource to be the first duration.
[0058] (7) Terminal capability information.
[0059] The terminal determining the first duration based on terminal capability information can also be understood as follows: if the network-side device does not indicate the first duration, the terminal determines the first duration based on the terminal capability information; if the first duration indicated by the network-side device exceeds the first duration determined based on the terminal capability information, then the first duration determined by the terminal based on the terminal capability information is the first duration.
[0060] For example, if the duration of multiple consecutive first uplink transmissions exceeds the capability of the terminal (which can also be understood as the user), then the terminal is not required to maintain the power and phase continuity of these multiple uplink transmissions; or, if the power and phase continuity of the multiple uplink transmissions is guaranteed by the network-side device, that is, the user does not expect multiple consecutive uplink transmissions to be scheduled or configured, the duration of which exceeds the user's capability.
[0061] It should be noted that the first duration can be determined based on any one of (1)-(7), or based on two or more of (1)-(7). In the case where the first duration is determined based on two or more of (1)-(7), the first duration can be any one of the following (a)-(b).
[0062] (a) The specified value of at least two first time length values.
[0063] Wherein, the specified value is either the maximum or minimum value, and each of the first time length values corresponds to different information in the first information. For example, suppose there are two first time length values, namely a first length value corresponding to the nominal transmission time domain resource length of the specified channel, and a second length value corresponding to the specified time resource, and the first length value is greater than the second length value. In this case, if the specified value is the maximum value, then the first duration is the first length value corresponding to the nominal transmission time domain resource length of the specified channel.
[0064] (b) The intersection between at least two second times.
[0065] In this embodiment, each of the second times corresponds to different information in the first information. Based on the different information in the first information corresponding to the second time, the second time can be a duration or a time range, without limitation. For example, if the second time is a time range, assuming there are two second times, (a1, a2) and (b1, b2), then the first duration can be the intersection of (a1, a2) and (b1, b2).
[0066] Based on the foregoing description of how the first duration is determined, the following will combine... Figures 2b-2e The determination of the first duration is further explained, wherein "U" represents an uplink time unit, "D" represents a downlink time unit, and "S" represents a flexible time unit.
[0067] like Figure 2b As shown, assuming the current frame structure is "DDDSUDDSUU", the second time is the time corresponding to (2) and (4) above, and the first uplink transmission PUSCH is in the uplink time slot (i.e. Figure 2b If repeated transmissions are performed on the "U" in the diagram, then the first duration can be... Figure 2b The first "U" shown corresponds to the time unit.
[0068] In addition, the network-side device may also indicate that the first duration is in units of the number of transmission repetitions, for example, taking the time length corresponding to 2 repeated transmissions as the first duration, and taking frame structure into account.
[0069] like Figure 2c As shown, in the "DDDSU" frame structure, the 14 symbols in the "S" slot include 2 uplink symbols, namely the last two symbols, and the terminal transmits over 2+14 uplink symbols. Figure 2cThe diagram shows the last two symbols of the "S" slot and the 14 symbols of the "U" slot. In this case, the terminal can use a continuous sequence of uplink symbols (2+14) as the first duration, which can be indicated by the network-side device or predefined.
[0070] Alternatively, if the network-side device is configured to have a first duration of 2 slots, but the actual first duration is less than 2 slots, then the first duration is the minimum value (min) among (2 slots, number of consecutive symbols).
[0071] Or, as Figure 2d As shown, the first duration configured by the network-side device is 1 slot, and each slot can contain 2 nominal transmissions of PUSCH (i.e., Figure 2d The “Nominal PUSCH repetition” shown in the figure has a repetition duration of 2+14 symbols, so the first duration can be the maximum value (max) of (1 slots, number of consecutive symbols).
[0072] Or, as Figure 2e As shown, the nominal PUSCH repeat transmission length configured by the network-side device is one slot (14 symbols). Due to downlink transmission segmentation, one nominal repeat transmission within a slot is split into two actual repeat transmissions. The first duration can be preset or indicated by the network to be the nominal PUSCH repeat transmission length, or greater than or equal to that length. However, since the actual number of consecutive symbols is 4 or 7, the first duration can be the minimum value among (1 slot / nominal PUSCH length, number of consecutive symbols). Alternatively, it can be understood as the intersection of the nominal repeat transmission duration and the number of consecutive symbols.
[0073] It is important to note that:
[0074] (1) The aforementioned PUSCH is only one possible uplink transmission, that is to say, the above Figures 2b-2e The method for determining the first duration shown can also be applied to other uplink transmissions such as PUCCH.
[0075] (2) The above PUSCH is a repeated transmission, or it can be a PUSCH / PUCCH transmission across multiple slots, and the multiple slots can be continuous or non-continuous.
[0076] (3) The schemes described in (1), (2), (3) and (5) included in the first information above can also be implemented individually. For example, for the FDD band (paired spectrum), continuous uplink and downlink transmission can be performed.
[0077] S220, based on the first duration, perform multiple first uplink transmissions on the first serving cell, the multiple first uplink transmissions satisfying predetermined requirements.
[0078] The fact that the plurality of first uplink transmissions meet the predetermined requirement during the first duration can be understood as follows: the power and phase of the plurality of first uplink transmissions supported by the terminal are continuous. This allows the network-side device to perform joint DMRS channel estimation based on the plurality of first uplink transmissions, thereby improving uplink transmission performance. In this embodiment, the predetermined requirement can be configured by the network-side device or agreed upon by a protocol, and is not limited here.
[0079] In the aforementioned uplink transmission method, the first uplink transmission may include at least one of PUCCH, PUSCH, Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH), and Sounding Reference Signal (SRS).
[0080] In addition, the first uplink transmission may include continuous transmission of at least one channel and / or signal. For example, the first uplink transmission may only include PUCCH, or it may include PUCCH, PUSCH, etc., without limitation.
[0081] In this embodiment, the terminal determines a first duration based on first information, and then performs multiple first uplink transmissions on the first serving cell based on the first duration. The multiple first uplink transmissions meet predetermined requirements, thereby enabling the multiple first uplink transmissions to maintain power and phase continuity within the first duration. This allows the network-side device to perform joint DMRS channel estimation based on the received uplink transmissions, effectively improving uplink transmission performance.
[0082] like Figure 3 The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating an uplink transmission method 300 provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application. This method 300 can be executed by a terminal, for example, by hardware and / or software installed in the terminal. The method 300 may include the following steps.
[0083] S310, determine the first duration based on the first information.
[0084] The implementation process in S310 can be referred to the relevant description in the aforementioned method 200 to avoid repetition, and will not be repeated here.
[0085] S320, based on the first duration, perform multiple first uplink transmissions on the first serving cell, the multiple first uplink transmissions satisfying predetermined requirements.
[0086] In addition to referring to the relevant description in the aforementioned method 200, as a possible implementation of S320, when the terminal performs multiple first uplink transmissions based on the first duration, the start time of the first duration can be the start time of the first uplink transmission; or, the start time of the first duration can be the start time of the time unit in which the first uplink transmission is located.
[0087] Furthermore, the first uplink transmission during the first duration uses the same first transmission parameters, that is, the terminal does not change the transmission power according to the received Transmit Power Control (TPC) command, nor does it adjust the transmission power according to the path loss reference signal (RS) indicated by the network.
[0088] The first transmission parameters may include at least one of the following: transmission power, transmission filter, precoding method, antenna mapping method, modulation method, and transmission waveform corresponding to the first uplink transmission. The signal waveform varies depending on the first uplink signal. For example, when the first uplink transmission is PUCCH format 0 / 1 / 3 / 4, the signal waveform can be considered a DFT-S-OFDM waveform; when the first uplink transmission is PUCCH format 2, the signal waveform can be considered a CP-OFDM waveform; and when the first uplink transmission is PRACH, the signal waveform can be considered a DFT-S-OFDM waveform.
[0089] For example, assuming the first transmission parameter is the transmission power, the terminal maintains a constant transmission power during the first duration; even if the path loss measured by the terminal changes, the terminal will not adjust the transmission power during the first duration; or, even if the terminal receives a TPC command, the terminal will not adjust the transmission power according to the TPC command during the first duration; or, even if the terminal receives an update indication of an updated path loss reference RS, the terminal will not adjust the transmission power according to the measured value of the updated reference RS during the first duration.
[0090] Furthermore, if it is necessary to adjust the transmission parameters during the uplink transmission process, the second transmission parameters corresponding to the first uplink transmission can be adjusted using the first duration as the time unit. The second transmission parameters may include at least one of the following: transmission power, transmission filter, precoding method, antenna mapping method, and modulation method of the first uplink transmission.
[0091] For example, after completing the first uplink transmission within a first duration, the terminal can adjust the transmission power based on updated pathloss measurements, TPC commands, power control reference signals, etc.
[0092] It should be noted that the first transmission parameter and the second transmission parameter can be the same or different, and no restriction is imposed here.
[0093] In another implementation, at least some of the first uplink transmissions have different durations; or, the first durations of the multiple first uplink transmissions have the same duration.
[0094] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the predetermined requirement may include at least one of the following (1)-(7).
[0095] (1) The channel of the second uplink transmission is determined according to the channel of the third uplink transmission. The second uplink transmission is any one of the plurality of first uplink transmissions, and the third uplink transmission is any other uplink transmission among the plurality of first uplink transmissions other than the second uplink transmission.
[0096] Among them, (1) can be understood as: for the plurality of first uplink transmissions, the channel of one of the uplink transmissions can be determined based on the channel of other uplink channels. In this embodiment, "determine" can also be understood as inferring, predicting, etc.
[0097] For example, assuming that the plurality of first uplink channels include a first uplink channel c1, a second uplink channel c2, a second uplink channel c3, and a fourth uplink channel c4, and that the channels corresponding to the first uplink channel c1, the second uplink channel c2, and the second uplink channel c3 are known, then the channel of the fourth uplink channel c4 can be determined based on at least one of the corresponding channels of the first uplink channel c1, the second uplink channel c2, and the second uplink channel c3.
[0098] (2) The multiple first uplink transmissions use the same antenna port.
[0099] (3) The phases of the plurality of first uplink transmissions are continuous.
[0100] (4) The difference between the transmission power corresponding to the plurality of first uplink transmissions is less than the first threshold.
[0101] The first threshold can be configured by the network-side device or agreed upon by the protocol, such as detaP1.
[0102] (5) The transmission filters corresponding to the multiple first uplink transmissions are the same.
[0103] (6) The precoding methods corresponding to the multiple first uplink transmissions are the same.
[0104] (7) The difference between the DMRS and the data transmission symbol corresponding to the plurality of first uplink transmissions is less than the second threshold.
[0105] The data transmission symbols can be understood as information symbols other than the DMRS, such as useful information symbols. The difference can be a power difference, and the second threshold can be configured by the network-side device or agreed upon by the protocol, such as 0dB, 3dB, 4.77dB, detaP2, etc. In this case, the plurality of first uplink transmissions meeting the predetermined requirements can be that the power difference between the DMRS and the useful symbols corresponding to the plurality of first uplink transmissions is 0dB or less than or equal to detaP2. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions here.
[0106] It is understood that in this embodiment, the predetermined requirements may include one or more of the aforementioned (1)-(7), and are not limited herein.
[0107] It should be noted that when the terminal is scheduled or configured with uplink transmissions of a specified priority on the first serving cell, and / or when the terminal receives a specified instruction, the plurality of first uplink transmissions may not be required to meet the predetermined requirements. The specified priority can be high priority, etc., and the specified instruction may include dynamic slot format indication (dynamic SFI) and / or uplink conflict indication (UL CI).
[0108] For example, if the terminal is scheduled or configured with a high-priority PUSCH and a HARQ-ACK PUCCH that transmits a high-priority codebook on the first serving cell, such that the plurality of first uplink transmissions do not meet the first duration, then the plurality of first uplink transmissions are also not required to meet the predetermined requirements, such as power and phase continuity.
[0109] In this case, in the uplink transmission method provided in this embodiment, the terminal does not expect to be scheduled or configured with a specified priority uplink transmission on the first serving cell, and / or the terminal does not expect to receive a specified instruction.
[0110] Furthermore, in one implementation, when the terminal performs multiple first uplink transmissions that meet predetermined requirements on the first serving cell based on a first duration, it can select different transmission modes, which will be explained below with different examples.
[0111] Example 1: Suppose the terminal needs to perform frequency hopping transmission. Then, the first duration can be used as the granularity of the time domain, and the frequency domain transmission position corresponding to the plurality of first uplink transmissions can be determined based on the length of the first duration. Finally, frequency hopping transmission is performed on the plurality of first uplink transmissions based on the frequency domain transmission position.
[0112] For example, if the network instructs the terminal to perform frequency hopping, the terminal can determine the frequency domain transmission position based on the length of the first duration. Specifically, if the terminal transmits over four first durations and two frequency domain positions, then the terminal's frequency hopping method is as follows. Figure 4a As shown, the frequency domain transmission position of the first duration can be different at different start times. Or, in other words, the first duration can be different at different frequency domain positions.
[0113] Example 2
[0114] If the terminal needs to perform uplink transmission based on DMRS, the terminal can determine the DMRS transmission pattern of each first uplink transmission based on the length of the first duration, and then transmit multiple first uplink transmissions based on the DMRS transmission pattern.
[0115] For example, the terminal determines the number of DMRS symbols in the first duration based on the number of slots and / or symbols in the first duration, or the number of DMRS symbols in each slot / nominal (actual) PUSCH repetition in the first duration.
[0116] For example, in the relevant technical solutions, the DMRS pattern is determined based on the number of transmission symbols of one PUSCH. If multiple first uplink (mainly PUSCH and / or PUCCH) transmissions within a first duration are supported and the predetermined requirements are met, joint channel estimation of multiple transmissions can be supported. In this case, the overhead of DMRS can be reduced to improve the transmission code rate.
[0117] In this embodiment, as Figure 4bAs shown, the number of DMRS symbols in each slot can be different depending on the first duration. In a PUSCH transmission with only one slot in the first duration, there are 4 DMRS symbols; in a PUSCH transmission with two slots in the first duration, each slot contains 2 DMRS symbols.
[0118] Alternatively, the network-side device may be configured to transmit additional DMRS (DMRS with a larger number of symbols) PUSCH. When the number of continuously transmitted PUSCH symbols exceeds a threshold M, PUSCH transmission will proceed without additional DMRS. In other words, the terminal implicitly determines the DMRS pattern based on the duration of the aforementioned first duration.
[0119] It should be noted that whether the function of the terminal determining the transmission pattern of each of the first uplink transmissions of the DMRS based on the first duration is enabled can be configured by the network side.
[0120] S330, transmit capability indication information.
[0121] By sending the capability indication information, the terminal and the network-side device can achieve a consistent understanding, thus ensuring uplink transmission performance. In this embodiment, the capability indication information is used to indicate at least one of the following (1)-(3).
[0122] (1) Whether the multiple first uplink transmissions performed by the terminal on the first serving cell meet the predetermined requirements.
[0123] (2) The shortest time of the first duration.
[0124] (3) The longest duration of the first duration.
[0125] In one implementation, the longest duration of the first duration indicated by the capability indication information is greater than or equal to the longest duration of the first duration indicated by the network-side device.
[0126] In this embodiment, the network can further use DMRS of multiple slots for joint channel estimation.
[0127] like Figure 5a The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating an uplink transmission method 500 provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application. This method 500 can be executed by a terminal, for example, by hardware and / or software installed in the terminal. The method 500 may include the following steps.
[0128] S510, determine the first duration based on the first information.
[0129] The implementation process of S510 can be found in the relevant descriptions in methods 200 and 300 above. To avoid repetition, it will not be repeated here.
[0130] S520, based on the first duration, perform multiple first uplink transmissions on the first serving cell, the multiple first uplink transmissions satisfying predetermined requirements.
[0131] In addition to referring to the relevant descriptions in methods 200 and 300, the implementation process of S520 can be implemented as follows: if the terminal is configured with multiple serving cells, and the terminal begins uplink transmission in the second serving cell during the first duration, then a predetermined operation is executed; that is, while executing S520, the terminal executes the predetermined operation if a predetermined condition is met. It can be understood that the uplink transmission in the second serving cell can be obtained by the network-side equipment through scheduling instructions such as higher-layer signaling (e.g., Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling), Medium Access Control-Control Element (MAC CE), and Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH).
[0132] The predetermined situation may include the terminal performing uplink transmission in the second serving cell during the first duration. The uplink transmission may include, but is not limited to, PUSCH, PUCCH, SRS, etc.
[0133] The predetermined operation includes at least one of the following (1)-(3).
[0134] (1) Discard uplink transmissions performed on the second serving cell.
[0135] (2) Uplink transmissions performed on the second serving cell are maintained. Accordingly, multiple first uplink transmissions performed by the terminal on the first serving cell are not required to meet the predetermined requirements.
[0136] (3) Discard the first designated transmission performed on the first serving cell, the first designated transmission being an uplink transmission performed in an overlapping time unit, the overlapping time unit being the time unit in which the first uplink transmission on the first serving cell overlaps with the uplink transmission on the second serving cell.
[0137] In one implementation, the predetermined condition may further include receiving a predetermined instruction and performing the predetermined operation, wherein the predetermined instruction indicates that the uplink transmission time of the second serving cell has reached a predetermined time. The predetermined time may be configured by the network side or agreed upon by a protocol. For example, the terminal may perform the aforementioned predetermined operation after receiving an instruction from the network-side device indicating that the uplink transmission time T in the second serving cell has elapsed.
[0138] In this embodiment, in addition to the implementation methods given above, if the uplink transmission corresponding to the second serving cell is a transmission with a predetermined priority, or if the uplink transmission corresponding to the second serving cell is a predetermined channel or signal, either of the following (1) or (2) is executed:
[0139] (1) Maintain uplink transmissions performed on the second serving cell.
[0140] (2) Discard the first designated transmission performed on the first serving cell, the first designated transmission being an uplink transmission performed in an overlapping time unit, the overlapping time unit being the time unit in which the first uplink transmission on the first serving cell overlaps with the uplink transmission on the second serving cell.
[0141] The predetermined priority transmission includes: a PUSCH with a predetermined priority and / or a PUCCH that transmits a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) corresponding to the predetermined priority codebook. The predetermined channel or channel includes at least one of the following: Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH), Physical Uplink Shared Channel carrying message 3 (MSG3PUSCH), Physical Uplink Shared Channel carrying message A (MSG-A PUSCH), and SRS.
[0142] Accordingly, if the uplink transmission corresponding to the second serving cell is not a transmission with a predetermined priority, and if the uplink transmission corresponding to the second serving cell is not a predetermined channel or channel, the uplink transmission performed in the second serving cell is discarded.
[0143] It should be noted that, in the aforementioned implementation, when the predetermined operation is the uplink transmission maintained on the second serving cell, the first duration is divided into a first part of duration and a second part of duration based on the start time of the uplink transmission on the second serving cell, wherein the first uplink transmission performed between the first part of duration and the second part of duration does not meet the predetermined requirement; or, the first uplink transmission performed between the first part of duration and the second part of duration continues to meet the predetermined requirement.
[0144] Accordingly, in the case where the predetermined operation is the uplink transmission maintained on the second serving cell, the first duration is divided into a first part duration and a second part duration based on the start time of the uplink transmission on the second serving cell, wherein the first uplink transmission performed during the first part duration satisfies the predetermined requirement, and / or the first uplink transmission performed during the second part duration satisfies the predetermined requirement.
[0145] Based on the description of method 500 above, the following is combined with... Figure 5b The aforementioned implementation method will be further explained.
[0146] Suppose that the network-side device configures multiple serving cells for the terminal, such as the first serving cell and the second serving cell. These serving cells are configured to communicate with each other using either carrier aggregation (CA) or dual connectivity (DC).
[0147] In this case, if the terminal may need to transmit simultaneously on multiple serving cells, for example... Figure 5b As shown, during a first duration of multiple first uplink transmissions on the first serving cell #1, the terminal begins uplink transmission on the second serving cell #2. In this case, from the start time of the terminal's uplink transmission on the serving cell #2, the terminal may not be able to meet the predetermined requirements within the first duration. Therefore, the terminal may perform the predetermined operation shown in the aforementioned method 500, such as at least one of (1)-(3) below.
[0148] (1) Discard uplink transmissions performed on the second serving cell.
[0149] (2) Uplink transmissions performed on the second serving cell are maintained. Accordingly, multiple first uplink transmissions performed by the terminal on the first serving cell are not required to meet the predetermined requirements.
[0150] (3) Discard the first designated transmission performed on the first serving cell, the first designated transmission being an uplink transmission performed in an overlapping time unit, the overlapping time unit being the time unit in which the first uplink transmission on the first serving cell overlaps with the uplink transmission on the second serving cell.
[0151] In one implementation, the predetermined requirement is not required to be met between the first part of the uplink transmission of serving cell #1 after the start time of slot / symbol n of the uplink transmission of serving cell #2 and the second part of the uplink transmission of serving cell #1 before the end time of slot / symbol n-1. However, the predetermined requirement continues to be met during the duration of the first part of the uplink transmission, and / or the predetermined requirement continues to be met during the duration of the second part of the uplink transmission.
[0152] In another implementation, if the uplink transmission of serving cell #2 is a high-priority transmission, or in the case of a specific channel / signal, execute (2) or (3) of the predetermined operation; otherwise execute (1); the high-priority transmission includes: a high-priority PUSCH, and a PUCCH that transmits the HARQ-ACK corresponding to the high-priority codebook.
[0153] In another implementation, the predetermined operation is performed after the terminal receives a network instruction to perform an uplink transmission of serving cell #2 for a time T. It should be noted that the network-side device will not trigger the above operation within a time T prior to a first duration transmission of serving cell #1. Figure 5b The uplink transmission of serving cell #2 is shown.
[0154] like Figure 6 The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating an uplink transmission method 600 provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application. This method 600 can be executed by a network-side device, for example, by hardware and / or software installed in the network-side device. The method 600 may include the following steps.

[0182] In another possible implementation, the method further includes: receiving capability indication information, the capability indication information being used to indicate at least one of the following: whether a plurality of first uplink transmissions performed by the terminal on a first serving cell meet predetermined requirements; the shortest duration of the first duration; and the longest duration of the first duration.
