[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of a wireless communication system provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. As Figure 1 shown, the wireless communication system is a communication system based on cellular mobile communication technology, and the wireless communication system may include: a plurality of terminals 11 and a plurality of base stations 12.

[0029] Among them, the terminal 11 may be a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user. The terminal 11 may communicate with one or more core networks via a Radio Access Network (RAN). The terminal 11 may be an Internet of Things (IoT) terminal, such as a sensor device, a mobile phone (or referred to as a "cellular" phone), and a computer with an IoT terminal. For example, it may be a fixed, portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-integrated, or vehicle-mounted device. For example, a Station (STA), a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a mobile station, a mobile, a remote station, an access point, a remote terminal, an access terminal, a user device, a user agent, a user equipment, or a user terminal (UE). Or, the terminal 11 may also be a device of an unmanned aerial vehicle. Or, the terminal 11 may also be a vehicle-mounted device, for example, it may be an in-vehicle computer with wireless communication function, or a wireless communication device external to the in-vehicle computer. Or, the terminal 11 may also be a roadside device, for example, it may be a street lamp, a traffic signal, or other roadside devices with wireless communication function, etc.

[0030] The base station 12 may be a network-side device in a wireless communication system. Among them, the wireless communication system may be a fourth-generation mobile communication technology (4G) system, also known as the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system; or, the wireless communication system may also be a 5G system, also known as the new radio (NR) system or 5G NR system. Or, the wireless communication system may also be the next-generation system of the 5G system. Among them, the access network in the 5G system may be called the NG-RAN (New Generation-Radio Access Network, new generation wireless access network). Or, the MTC system.

[0031] Among them, the base station 12 may be an evolved Node B (eNB) adopted in the 4G system. Or, the base station 12 may also be a gNode B (gNB) with a centralized distributed architecture adopted in the 5G system. When the base station 12 adopts a centralized distributed architecture, it usually includes a central unit (CU) and at least two distributed units (DUs). The protocol stacks of the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer, Radio Link Control (RLC) layer, and Media Access Control (MAC) layer are set in the central unit; the Physical (PHY) layer protocol stack is set in the distributed unit. The specific implementation manner of the base station 12 in the embodiments of the present disclosure is not limited.

[0032] A wireless connection may be established between the base station 12 and the terminal 11 through the wireless air interface. In different embodiments, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on the fourth-generation mobile communication network technology (4G) standard; or, the wireless air interface is a wireless air interface based on the fifth-generation mobile communication network technology (5G) standard, such as the new radio; or, the wireless air interface may also be a wireless air interface based on the next-generation mobile communication network technology standard of 5G.

[0034] In some embodiments, the above wireless communication system may further include a network management device 13.

[0035] A plurality of base stations 12 are respectively connected to the network management device 13. Among them, the network management device 13 may be a core network device in the wireless communication system. For example, the network management device 13 may be a Mobility Management Entity (MME) in an Evolved Packet Core (EPC). Alternatively, the network management device may also be other core network devices, such as a Serving GateWay (SGW), a Public Data Network GateWay (PGW), a Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF), or a Home Subscriber Server (HSS), etc. The implementation form of the network management device 13 is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0036] The execution subjects involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to: User Equipment (UE) such as mobile phone terminals supporting cellular mobile communication, and base stations, etc.

[0037] An application scenario of the embodiments of the present disclosure is that a base station can send multiple sets of TRS and / or CSI-RS to a UE for downlink synchronization, etc. The base station needs to provide configuration parameters for each set of TRS and / or CSI-RS to the UE, such as time-frequency resource configuration parameters, QCL configuration parameters, and / or SCS configuration parameters, etc. If a set of configuration parameters is configured and sent to the UE for each set of TRS and / or CSI-RS, the signaling load will increase. Therefore, how to indicate the configuration parameters of multiple sets of TRS and / or CSI-RS to the UE without increasing too much signaling load is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0038] As Figure 2 shown, this exemplary embodiment provides an information transmission method. The information transmission method can be applied to a base station in wireless communication and includes:

[0039] Step 201: Transmit the configuration information associated with N reference signals, where the configuration information is at least used to indicate the first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals, and the reference signals are at least used to be received by idle-state UEs and / or inactive-state UEs. N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, and the first configuration parameter is used to transmit the N reference signals.

[0040] Here, the UE can be a mobile phone terminal or the like that performs wireless communication using cellular mobile communication technology. The base station can be a communication device that provides an access network interface to the UE in a cellular mobile communication system. The UE can be an idle-state UE or an inactive-state UE.

[0041] The reference signal can be a signal used for downlink synchronization by idle-state UEs or inactive-state UEs.

[0042] In one embodiment, the reference signal includes: TRS and / or CSI-RS.

[0043] Here, TRS and / or CSI-RS can be shared by idle-state UEs and / or inactive-state UEs and / or connected-state UEs. The idle-state UEs, inactive-state UEs, and / or connected-state UEs can monitor TRS and / or CSI-RS at the TRS and / or CSI-RS timing.

[0044] Exemplarily, the idle-state UEs and / or inactive-state UEs can perform downlink synchronization based on the monitored TRS and / or CSI-RS.

[0045] In one embodiment, the transmission resources of different reference signals are different.

[0046] Here, the transmission resources can include but are not limited to: frequency domain resources, time domain resources, and / or code domain resources, etc.

[0047] The base station can send reference signals through different transmission resources, and the UE receives reference signals through different transmission resources.

[0048] Here, one configuration information can be associated with N reference signals, where N is greater than or equal to 2. Different reference signals can have different transmission resources, such as different frequency domain resources and / or time domain resources, etc.

[0049] The configuration information can indicate the first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals, that is, if multiple reference signals have the same first configuration parameter, then this first configuration parameter can be indicated through the configuration information.

[0050] The first configuration parameter is used to transmit N reference signals; the first configuration parameter may include, but is not limited to, one or more physical layer configuration parameters, such as time domain resource configuration parameters, frequency domain resource configuration parameters, period, density, power offset, scrambling ID, etc. The shared physical layer configuration parameters are not configured separately for each reference signal. In this way, the reuse of physical layer configuration parameters can be achieved.

[0051] The UE can determine the first configuration parameter shared by N reference signals according to the configuration information. There is no need to determine the first configuration parameter of each reference signal one by one.

[0052] In one embodiment, the first configuration parameter may include: time-frequency resource configuration parameter, QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter, etc.

[0053] The time-frequency resource configuration parameter can be used to indicate the time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource of the reference signal.

[0054] The BWP ID is used to indicate the BWP associated with the bandwidth of the reference signal.

[0055] The QCL configuration parameter may include: qcl-InfoPeriodicCSI-RS, etc. The QCL configuration parameter can be used to configure the SSB having a QCL relationship with the reference signal, as well as the QCL type, etc.

[0056] The SCS configuration parameter can be the SCS used by the idle-state UE and / or non-active state UE to listen to and / or resolve the TRS and / or CSI-RS during the listening opportunity of the TRS and / or CSI-RS. The SCS configuration parameter may include: 15KHz, 30KHz, 60KHz, 120KHz, and / or 240KHz, etc., and can also be used to indicate that the reference signal adopts the same SCS as the SSB.

[0057] In one embodiment, the configuration information associated with transmitting N reference signals includes: transmitting a system message carrying the configuration information.

[0058] Here, the configuration information can be broadcast to the UE by carrying it in system messages such as SIB. The UE can determine the first configuration parameter shared by N reference signals according to the configuration information carried in the broadcast system message.

[0059] In this way, the first configuration parameter common to N reference signals is indicated through configuration information, and the first configuration parameter is no longer configured separately for each reference signal. On the one hand, when the base station distributes configuration parameters, the signaling load can be reduced, and as many physical layer configuration parameters as possible can be optimized and reused. On the other hand, when the UE determines the first configuration parameter, it no longer needs to determine it for each reference signal one by one, and can determine the first configuration parameter of all reference signals at one time, improving the efficiency of determining configuration parameters.

[0060] In one embodiment, the configuration information is further used to indicate second configuration parameters respectively associated with the N reference signals, where the first configuration parameter is different from the second configuration parameter, and the second configuration parameter is used to transmit the associated reference signal.

[0061] Here, the second configuration parameter may include but is not limited to one or more physical layer configuration parameters. The second configuration parameter may be a configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. For example, the second configuration parameter may be a physical layer configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. The configuration information may indicate the second configuration parameter of each reference signal respectively.

[0062] The second configuration parameter may be different from the first configuration parameter and may be combined with the first configuration parameter to be used for transmitting the reference signal. The second configuration parameter may include but is not limited to one or more physical layer configuration parameters. The second configuration parameter includes but is not limited to: time-frequency resource configuration parameter, QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter, etc. The first configuration parameter and the second configuration parameter may be combined to form a complete configuration parameter of the reference signal for transmitting the corresponding reference signal.

[0063] In this way, the configuration information completely indicates the configuration information of the reference signal by indicating the first configuration parameter common to multiple reference signals and the second configuration parameter of each reference signal. Since the first configuration parameter of each reference signal is not indicated one by one, when the base station distributes configuration parameters, the signaling load can be reduced, and as many physical layer parameters as possible can be optimized and reused. When the UE determines the first configuration parameter, it no longer needs to determine it for each reference signal one by one, and can determine the first configuration parameter of all reference signals at one time, improving the efficiency of determining configuration parameters.

[0064] In one embodiment, in response to the reference signal including: TRS and CSI-RS,

[0065] the second configuration parameter at least includes: a frequency-domain resource configuration parameter and a time-domain resource configuration parameter.

[0066] If the reference signal includes: TRS and CSI-RS, two separate sets of second configuration parameters need to be configured separately. The second configuration parameters may include: time domain resource parameters and frequency domain resource parameters. Configuration parameters such as QCL configuration parameters, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameters can be reused. That is, configuration parameters such as QCL configuration parameters, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameters are the reused first configuration parameters. As shown in Table 1, the configuration information may only indicate one set of reused first configuration parameters: configuration parameters such as QCL configuration parameters, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameters.

[0067] Table 1

[0068]

[0069] In one embodiment, the configuration information is used to indicate:

[0070] The third configuration parameter of the first reference signal among N said reference signals;

[0071] The offset value between the third configuration parameter of the second reference signal and the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal among N said reference signals, where the first reference signal is different from the second reference signal, where the first configuration parameter is different from the third configuration parameter, and where the third configuration parameter is used to transmit the reference signal associated with the third configuration parameter.

[0072] Here, the third configuration parameter may include but is not limited to one or more physical layer configuration parameters. The third configuration parameter may be a configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. For example, the third configuration parameter may be a physical layer configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. The third configuration parameter includes but is not limited to: time-frequency resource configuration parameters, QCL configuration parameters, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameters, etc. The third configuration parameter may be different from the first configuration parameter and may be combined with the first configuration parameter to transmit the reference signal. The first configuration parameter and the third configuration parameter may be combined to form a complete configuration parameter of the reference signal for transmitting the corresponding reference signal. The first configuration parameter, the second configuration parameter, and the third configuration parameter may be combined to form a complete configuration parameter of the reference signal for transmitting the corresponding reference signal.

[0073] For physical layer configuration parameters that are not completely the same for each reference signal, etc., the configuration information may be indicated by listing the second configuration parameters. The configuration information may also be indicated by indicating the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal and at the same time indicating the offset value of the third configuration parameter of the second reference signal different from the first reference signal relative to the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal.

[0074] Exemplarily, if the first reference signal and the second reference signal have the same frequency-domain configuration parameters and different time-domain configuration parameters. The configuration information may indicate the frequency-domain configuration parameters and the time-domain configuration parameters of the first reference signal, and indicate the offset value of the time-domain configuration parameters of the second reference signal from the time-domain configuration parameters. Here, the frequency-domain configuration parameters are the first configuration parameters, and the configuration information is indicated only once. The time-domain configuration parameters are the third configuration parameters. After receiving the configuration information, the UE may determine the frequency-domain configuration parameters of the first reference signal and the second reference signal, and the time-domain configuration parameters of the first reference signal, and determine the time-domain configuration parameters of the second reference signal through the offset value.

[0075] The configuration information may indicate the first configuration parameter, the second configuration parameter, and / or the third configuration parameter at the same time.

[0076] In this way, the third configuration parameters of other reference signals are determined through the third configuration parameters of one reference signal and the corresponding offset values of other reference signals. The number of specific configuration parameters indicated by the configuration information is increased, and the signaling load is reduced.

[0077] In one embodiment, in response to the reference signal including at least two TRSs, the first configuration parameter at least includes a frequency-domain resource configuration parameter, and the third configuration parameter at least includes a time-domain resource configuration parameter.

[0078] Exemplarily, if the first TRS and the second TRS have the same frequency-domain configuration parameters and different time-domain configuration parameters. Here, the frequency-domain configuration parameters of the first TRS are the first configuration parameters, and the time-domain configuration parameters of the first TRS are the third configuration parameters. The configuration information may indicate the offset value of the time-domain configuration parameters of the second TRS from the time-domain configuration parameters of the first TRS.

[0079] The UE determines the time-domain configuration parameters of the second TRS based on the time-domain configuration parameters of the first TRS and the offset value.

[0080] In this way, the time-domain configuration parameters of the second TRS can be determined based on the time-domain configuration parameters of the first TRS.

[0081] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0082] Sending an activation status indication, where the activation status indication is used to respectively indicate whether to send the corresponding reference signal on the transmission resources of each reference signal indicated by the configuration information.

[0083] The activation status indication is used to indicate that the base station sends the reference signal through the transmission resources of the reference signal.

[0084] When the base station configures TRS and / or CSI-RS for idle UEs and / or inactive UEs to use, it is necessary to clarify whether to send TRS and / or CSI-RS on the transmission resources of TRS and / or CSI-RS. That is, to indicate whether TRS and / or CSI-RS is effective. This reduces the situation where the base station configures the transmission resources of TRS and / or CSI-RS but does not send TRS and / or CSI-RS. Thus, it reduces the situation where the UE still performs TRS and / or CSI-RS detection when the base station does not send TRS and / or CSI-RS, thereby saving the UE's power.

[0085] The validity status indication can indicate whether each reference signal is effective.

[0086] In one embodiment, the validity status indication is used to indicate, by means of a bitmap, whether to send the corresponding reference signal on the transmission resources of each reference signal indicated by the configuration information.

[0087] Exemplarily, one bit in the bitmap can be used to indicate whether a reference signal occurs. For example, "0" can be used to indicate that the corresponding reference signal is not sent, and "1" can be used to indicate that the corresponding reference signal is sent. Or "1" can be used to indicate that the corresponding reference signal is not sent, and "2" can be used to indicate that the corresponding reference signal is sent.

[0088] In one embodiment, the validity status indication is used to respectively indicate whether to send the corresponding reference signal on the beam used to transmit each reference signal indicated by the configuration information.

[0089] The validity status indication can indicate whether a reference signal is sent on one or more beams.

[0090] Exemplarily, the validity status indication can be sent in one beam. At this time, the validity status indication can indicate whether the reference signal in this beam is sent.

[0091] The validity status indication can be sent in multiple beams. At this time, the validity status indication can indicate whether the reference signals in multiple beams are sent.

[0092] In one embodiment, the sending of the validity status indication includes:

[0093] Sending a paging DCI carrying the validity status indication.

[0094] The base station can carry the validity status indication in the paging DCI.

[0095] The paging DCI is used to schedule paging messages, and the UE can determine whether to wake up to receive paging messages based on the paging DCI. When the UE wakes up, it needs to perform synchronization. By using a signaling to indicate whether to wake up and whether the reference message is valid simultaneously, the information carried by the signaling is increased, and the signaling load generated by separately indicating through a single signaling is reduced.

[0096] As Figure 3 shown, this exemplary embodiment provides an information transmission method, which can be applied to a base station in wireless communication and includes:

[0097] Step 301: Receive configuration information associated with N reference signals,

[0098] Step 302: Determine a first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals according to the configuration information, where the reference signals are at least used for idle-state UEs and / or inactive-state UEs to receive, N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, and the first configuration parameter is used to transmit the N reference signals.

[0099] Here, the UE can be a mobile phone terminal or the like that performs wireless communication using cellular mobile communication technology. The base station can be a communication device that provides an access network interface to the UE in a cellular mobile communication system. The UE can be an idle-state UE or an inactive-state UE.

[0100] The reference signal can be a signal used for downlink synchronization by idle-state UEs or inactive-state UEs.

[0101] In one embodiment, the reference signals include: TRS and / or CSI-RS.

[0102] Here, the TRS and / or CSI-RS can be shared by idle-state UEs and / or inactive-state UEs and / or connected-state UEs. The idle-state UEs, inactive-state UEs, and / or connected-state UEs can monitor the TRS and / or CSI-RS at the TRS and / or CSI-RS timing.

[0103] Exemplarily, the idle-state UEs and / or inactive-state UEs can perform downlink synchronization based on the monitored TRS and / or CSI-RS.

[0104] In one embodiment, the transmission resources of different reference signals are different.

[0105] Here, the transmission resources can include but are not limited to: frequency domain resources, time domain resources, and / or code domain resources, etc.

[0106] The base station can send reference signals through different transmission resources, and the UE receives reference signals through different transmission resources.

[0107] Here, a configuration information can be associated with N reference signals, where N is greater than or equal to 2. Different reference signals can have different transmission resources, such as different frequency-domain resources and / or time-domain resources, etc.

[0108] The configuration information can indicate a first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals, that is, if multiple reference signals have the same first configuration parameter, the first configuration parameter can be indicated through the configuration information.

[0109] The first configuration parameter is used to transmit the N reference signals; the first configuration parameter can include but is not limited to one or more physical layer configuration parameters, such as time-domain resource configuration parameters, frequency-domain resource configuration parameters, period, density, power offset, scrambling ID, etc. The shared physical layer configuration parameters are no longer configured separately for each reference signal, so that the physical layer configuration parameters can be reused.

[0110] The UE can determine the first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals according to the configuration information. There is no need to determine the first configuration parameter of each reference signal one by one.

[0111] In an embodiment, the first configuration parameter may include: time-frequency resource configuration parameter, QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter, etc.

[0112] The time-frequency resource configuration parameter can be used to indicate the time-domain resource and / or frequency-domain resource of the reference signal.

[0113] The BWP ID is used to indicate the BWP associated with the bandwidth of the reference signal.

[0114] The QCL configuration parameter may include: qcl-InfoPeriodicCSI-RS, etc. The QCL configuration parameter can be used to configure the SSB having a QCL relationship with the reference signal, as well as the QCL type, etc.

[0115] The SCS configuration parameter can be the SCS used by the idle-state UE and / or non-active-state UE to listen to and / or resolve the TRS and / or CSI-RS during the listening opportunity of the TRS and / or CSI-RS. The SCS configuration parameter can include: 15KHz, 30KHz, 60KHz, 120KHz, and / or 240KHz, etc., and can also be used to indicate that the reference signal uses the same SCS as the SSB.

[0116] In one embodiment, transmitting the configuration information associated with the N reference signals includes: transmitting a system message carrying the configuration information.

[0117] Here, the configuration information can be carried in system messages such as SIBs and broadcast to the UE. The UE can determine the first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals according to the configuration information carried in the broadcast system message.

[0118] In this way, the first configuration parameter common to the N reference signals is indicated by the configuration information, and the first configuration parameter is no longer configured separately for each reference signal. On the one hand, when the base station distributes the configuration parameters, the signaling load can be reduced, and as many physical layer configuration parameters as possible can be optimized and reused. On the other hand, when the UE determines the first configuration parameter, it no longer needs to determine it for each reference signal one by one, and can determine the first configuration parameter of all reference signals at one time, improving the efficiency of determining the configuration parameter.

[0119] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0120] Determine the second configuration parameter respectively associated with the N reference signals according to the configuration information, where the first configuration parameter is different from the second configuration parameter, and the second configuration parameter is used to transmit the associated reference signal.

[0121] Here, the second configuration parameter may include, but is not limited to, one or more physical layer configuration parameters. The second configuration parameter may be a configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. For example, the second configuration parameter may be a physical layer configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. The configuration information may indicate the second configuration parameter of each reference signal respectively.

[0122] The second configuration parameter may be different from the first configuration parameter, and may be combined with the first configuration parameter to transmit the reference signal. The second configuration parameter may include, but is not limited to, one or more physical layer configuration parameters. The second configuration parameter includes, but is not limited to: time-frequency resource configuration parameter, QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter, etc. The first configuration parameter and the second configuration parameter may be combined to form a complete configuration parameter of the reference signal for transmitting the corresponding reference signal.

[0123] In this way, the configuration information completely indicates the configuration information of the reference signal by indicating the first configuration parameter common to multiple reference signals and the second configuration parameter of each reference signal. Since the first configuration parameter of each reference signal is not indicated one by one, when the base station distributes the configuration parameters, the signaling load can be reduced, and as many physical layer parameters as possible can be optimized and reused. When the UE determines the first configuration parameter, it no longer needs to determine it for each reference signal one by one, and can determine the first configuration parameter of all reference signals at one time, improving the efficiency of determining the configuration parameter.

[0124] In one embodiment, in response to the reference signal including: TRS and CSI-RS,

[0125] The second configuration parameter at least includes: a frequency-domain resource configuration parameter and a time-domain resource configuration parameter.

[0126] If the reference signals include TRS and CSI-RS, two separate sets of second configuration parameters need to be configured separately. The second configuration parameter may include: a time-domain resource parameter and a frequency-domain resource parameter. Configuration parameters such as QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter can be reused. That is, configuration parameters such as QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter are the reused first configuration parameter. As shown in Table 1, the configuration information may only indicate one set of reused first configuration parameter: configuration parameters such as QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter.

[0127] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0128] Determine the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal among the N reference signals according to the configuration information, and the offset value between the third configuration parameter of the second reference signal among the N reference signals and the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal;

[0129] Determine the third configuration parameter of the second reference signal according to the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal and the offset value, where the first configuration parameter is different from the third configuration parameter, where the third configuration parameter is used to transmit the reference signal associated with the third configuration parameter, where the first configuration parameter is different from the third configuration parameter, where the third configuration parameter is used to transmit the reference signal associated with the third configuration parameter.

[0130] Here, the third configuration parameter may include but is not limited to one or more physical layer configuration parameters. The third configuration parameter may be a configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. For example, the third configuration parameter may be a physical layer configuration parameter that is not completely the same for each reference signal. The third configuration parameter includes but is not limited to: time-frequency resource configuration parameter, QCL configuration parameter, BWP ID, and / or SCS configuration parameter, etc. The third configuration parameter may be different from the first configuration parameter and may be combined with the first configuration parameter to transmit the reference signal. The first configuration parameter and the third configuration parameter may be combined to form a complete configuration parameter of the reference signal for transmitting the corresponding reference signal. The first configuration parameter, the second configuration parameter, and the third configuration parameter may be combined to form a complete configuration parameter of the reference signal for transmitting the corresponding reference signal.

[0131] For physical layer configuration parameters where each reference signal is not completely the same, etc., the configuration information can be indicated by listing the second configuration parameters. The configuration information can also be indicated by indicating the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal and, at the same time, indicating the offset value of the third configuration parameter of the second reference signal different from the first reference signal relative to the third configuration parameter of the first reference signal.

[0132] Exemplarily, if the first reference signal and the second reference signal have the same frequency domain configuration parameters and different time domain configuration parameters. The configuration information can indicate the frequency domain configuration parameters and time domain configuration parameters of the first reference signal, and indicate the offset value of the time domain configuration parameters of the second reference signal from the time domain configuration parameters. Here, the frequency domain configuration parameters are the first configuration parameters, and the configuration information is indicated only once, and the time domain configuration parameters are the third configuration parameters. After receiving the configuration information, the UE can determine the frequency domain configuration parameters of the first reference signal and the second reference signal, and the time domain configuration parameters of the first reference signal, and determine the time domain configuration parameters of the second reference signal through the offset value.

[0133] The configuration information can indicate the first configuration parameter, the second configuration parameter, and / or the third configuration parameter at the same time.

[0134] In this way, the third configuration parameter of other reference signals is determined through the third configuration parameter of one reference signal and the corresponding offset values of other reference signals. The number of specific configuration parameters indicated by the configuration information is increased, and the signaling load is reduced.

[0135] In one embodiment, in response to the reference signal including at least two TRSs, the first configuration parameter at least includes a frequency domain resource configuration parameter, and the third configuration parameter at least includes a time domain resource configuration parameter.

[0136] Exemplarily, if the first TRS and the second TRS have the same frequency domain configuration parameters and different time domain configuration parameters. Here, the frequency domain configuration parameters of the first TRS are the first configuration parameters, and the time domain configuration parameters of the first TRS are the third configuration parameters. The configuration information can indicate the offset value of the time domain configuration parameters of the second TRS from the time domain configuration parameters of the first TRS.

[0137] The UE determines the time domain configuration parameters of the second TRS based on the time domain configuration parameters of the first TRS and the offset value.

[0138] In this way, the time domain configuration parameters of the second TRS can be determined based on the time domain configuration parameters of the first TRS.

[0139] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0140] Receiving an effective status indication;

[0141] Determine, according to the active state indication, whether to transmit the corresponding reference signal on the transmission resource of each reference signal indicated by the configuration information.

[0142] The active state indication is used to indicate that the base station transmits a reference signal through the transmission resource of the reference signal.

[0143] When the base station configures TRS and / or CSI-RS for use by idle-state UEs and / or non-active state UEs, it is necessary to clarify whether to transmit TRS and / or CSI-RS on the transmission resources of TRS and / or CSI-RS. That is, to indicate whether TRS and / or CSI-RS are active. This reduces the situation where the base station configures the transmission resources of TRS and / or CSI-RS but does not transmit TRS and / or CSI-RS. Thus, it reduces the situation where UEs still perform TRS and / or CSI-RS detection when the base station does not transmit TRS and / or CSI-RS, thereby saving UE power.

[0144] The active state indication can indicate whether each reference signal is active.

[0145] In one embodiment, the active state indication is used to indicate, by means of a bitmap, whether to transmit the corresponding reference signal on the transmission resource of each reference signal indicated by the configuration information.

[0146] Exemplarily, one bit in the bitmap can be used to indicate whether a reference signal occurs. For example, "0" can be used to indicate not to transmit the corresponding reference signal, and "1" can be used to indicate to transmit the corresponding reference signal. Or "1" can be used to indicate not to transmit the corresponding reference signal, and "2" can be used to indicate to transmit the corresponding reference signal.

[0147] In one embodiment, the determining, according to the active state indication, whether to transmit the corresponding reference signal on the transmission resource of each reference signal indicated by the configuration information includes:

[0148] Determine, according to the active state indication, whether to transmit the corresponding reference signal on the beam used for transmitting each reference signal indicated by the configuration information.

[0149] The active state indication can indicate whether a reference signal is transmitted on one or more beams.

[0150] Exemplarily, the active state indication can be transmitted in one beam. At this time, the active state indication can indicate whether the reference signal in this beam is transmitted.

[0151] The active state indication can be transmitted in multiple beams. At this time, the active state indication can indicate whether the reference signals in multiple beams are transmitted.

[0152] In one embodiment, the receiving and sending effective status indication includes:

[0153] Receiving a paging DCI carrying the effective status indication.

[0154] The base station may carry the effective status indication in a paging DCI.

[0155] The Paging DCI is used to schedule paging messages. The UE can determine whether to wake up to receive paging messages based on the Paging DCI. When the UE wakes up, synchronization is required. By indicating whether to wake up and whether the reference message is effective through a single signaling, the amount of information carried by the signaling is increased, and the signaling load generated by separately indicating through a single signaling is reduced.

[0156] The following provides a specific example in combination with any of the above embodiments:

[0157] 1. In addition to the default configuration of the resources of multiple sets of reference signals given by the SIB, the available status of multiple sets of resources is indicated by a paging DCI, such as indicating the effective status through a (bitmap) bit map.

[0158] 2. This DCI indication information can also include indicating whether the reference signals in different beams are effective.

[0159] 3. For the optimization of configuration parameters, if multiple sets (two sets) of resources are both TRS, since the bandwidth tracked by the idle UE is on the initial access bandwidth, the configuration of physical layer parameters can reuse the same configuration parameter, and the number of extended sets offset is increased. That is, if both are TRS, the frequency-domain resource configuration parameters can be reused with one configuration, and the time-domain resource configuration parameters give the shift value.

[0160] 4. If it is TRS and CSI-RS, two sets of time- and frequency-domain resource configuration parameters need to be separately configured; other parameters can be reused, and the effective status indication can still use a bitmap.

[0161] 5. The UE independently selects a reference at a suitable position before the PO, and performs reasonable tracking and power saving through the above available status indication.

[0162] 6. The multiplexed configuration parameters in 4 are shown in Table 1, where the separately configured parameters are not listed.

[0163] 7. Promote the same SCS for multiple sets of reference signals, so that the configuration can be simplified. One parameter can be configured by default.
