Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a method, apparatus and terminal for determining the transport block size. Background Technology

[0002] In 5G networks, cross-timeslot Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission can be supported, meaning a single PUSCH can be transmitted across multiple time slots. One implementation method is to determine the PUSCH transport block size based on the total number of symbols or Resource Elements (REs) across multiple time slots. PUSCH transmission across multiple time slots can be continuous or discontinuous.

[0029] In an embodiment of the present application, the first resource is the transmission resource allocated to the PUSCH, and can also be referred to as the PUSCH resource. Since the PUSCH is a PUSCH for cross-slot transmission, the first resource is distributed in N slots, and can also be referred to as the PUSCH being transmitted in N slots.

[0030] Among them, the starting symbol and the number of symbols of the symbol resources occupied by the PUSCH in N slots may be the same or different, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0071] For example, the third set of positive integers is Cx ∈ [C1 C2 C3....], where C1 < C2 < C3 < …; where Ci = M * C, and C is the maximum number of resource particles within one RB in one time slot. The terminal selects the larger or smaller value in the Cx set that is closest to Ci according to the maximum number of resource particles in one time slot as the fourth quantization value Y.

[0084] Where L can be:

[0085] The length of the nominal PUSCH configured in the network, or a preset value, such as the number of PUSCHs in a slot, for example, 14. Alternatively, it can be the actual number of symbols in the first repetition scheduled by the network.
