Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application, the original application's application number is 201811142571.3, the original application's original date is September 28, 2018, and the original application's entire content is incorporated into the present application by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to a resource configuration method, an information sending method and device. BACKGROUND

[0003] In the wireless communication technology, the terminal device needs to send uplink control information (UCI) to the network device through the physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) to support the uplink and downlink data transmission. Among them, the resource used for transmitting UCI in the PUCCH channel is configured by the network device for the terminal device at the initial power-on stage, the initialization stage or the cell (channel) parameter update.

[0004] Generally, each UCI information sent by the terminal device occupies one resource. Therefore, when the terminal device needs to send multiple UCI, if one UCI can be multiplexed to send the information carried by multiple UCI, more information can be reported at the same time.

[0005] However, only in the case that multiple UCI can be combined, one UCI can be multiplexed to carry the information included in multiple UCI. However, there is still a lack of a judgment scheme for the terminal device to judge whether multiple UCI can be combined in the prior art. SUMMARY

Those skilled in the art can know that, with the evolution of network architecture and the appearance of new service scenarios, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0049] The embodiments of the present application can be applied to time division duplex (TDD) scenarios and frequency division duplex (FDD) scenarios.

[0050] It should be noted that the scheme in the embodiments of the present application can also be applied to other wireless communication networks, and the corresponding names can also be replaced by the names of corresponding functions in other wireless communication networks.

[0051] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, first take the scenario of the NR network in the wireless communication network as an example for description. Figure 1 The communication system applicable to the embodiments of the present application is described in detail with the communication system shown in the Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the communication system 100 includes a network device 101 and a terminal device 102, the network device 101 can be configured with multiple antennas, and the terminal device 102 can also be configured with multiple antennas. In the communication system 100, the network device 101 can simultaneously communicate with other terminal devices (not shown in the Figure 1 embodiments of the present application. As shown in the figure, the communication system 100 includes a network device 101 and a terminal device 102, the network device 101 can be configured with multiple antennas, and the terminal device 102 can also be configured with multiple antennas. In the communication system 100, the network device 101 can simultaneously communicate with other terminal devices (not shown in the Figure 1 embodiments of the present application. As shown in the figure, the communication system 100 includes a network device 101 and a terminal device 102, the network device 101 can be configured with multiple antennas, and the terminal device 102 can also be configured with multiple antennas. In the communication system 100, the network device 101 can simultaneously communicate with other terminal devices (not shown in the

[0052] The network device 101 is a device with wireless transceiver function or a chip that can be arranged in the device, including but not limited to: evolved Node B (eNB), radio network controller (RNC), Node B (NB), base station controller (BSC), base transceiver station (BTS), home base station (for example, home evolved Node B, or home Node B, HNB), baseband unit (BBU), access point (AP) in wireless fidelity (WIFI) system, wireless relay node, wireless backhaul node, transmission and reception point (TRP or transmission point, TP), etc., and can also be gNB or transmission point (TRP or TP) in 5G, such as NR, system, one or a group of antenna panels (including multiple antenna panels) of the base station in the 5G system, or can also be a network node constituting the gNB or transmission point, such as baseband unit (BBU) or distributed unit (DU).

[0053] In some deployments, a gNB can include a centralized unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU). A gNB can also include a radio unit (RU). The CU implements part of the functionality of the gNB and the DU implements part of the functionality of the gNB, for example, the CU implements radio resource control (RRC), packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer functionality, and the DU implements radio link control (RLC), media access control (MAC), and physical (PHY) layer functionality. Since information at the RRC layer eventually becomes information at the PHY layer, or vice versa, high layer signaling, such as RRC layer signaling or PDCP layer signaling, can also be considered as being transmitted by the DU, or by the DU+RU, under this architecture. It can be understood that a network device can be a CU node, or a DU node, or a device including a CU node and a DU node. In addition, the CU can be divided into a network device in an access network RAN, or the CU can be divided into a network device in a core network CN, which is not limited here.

[0054] The terminal device 102 can also be referred to as a user equipment (UE), an access terminal, a user unit, a user station, a mobile station, a mobile, a remote station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a user terminal, a terminal, a wireless communication device, a user agent, or a user apparatus. The terminal device in the embodiments of the present application can be a mobile phone, a Pad, a computer with wireless transceiver function, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal in industrial control, a wireless terminal in self driving, a wireless terminal in remote medical treatment, a wireless terminal in smart grid, a wireless terminal in transportation safety, a wireless terminal in smart city, a wireless terminal in smart home, and the like. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the application scenarios. The terminal device with wireless transceiver function and the chip that can be arranged in the terminal device are collectively referred to as a terminal device in the present application.

[0055] In Figure 1 In the communication system 100 shown, the network device configures resources in the PUCCH channel for the terminal device at the initial power-on stage, the initialization stage, or the cell (channel) parameter update. Some of the PUCCH channel resources will be used to transmit the UCI sent by the terminal device to the network device. In some existing technical solutions, the network device configures indication information for each resource when configuring the resources for transmitting the UCI, to indicate whether the terminal device can multiplex one UCI to send information carried by multiple UCIs.

[0056] For example, in the fifth generation (5 th generation,5G) new radio technology (new redio,NR), the network device configures simultaneous HARQ-ACK and CSI parameters (simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI) for each resource for transmitting the UCI, where the hybrid automatic repeat-request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information and the channel state indication information (CSI) are specific types of UCI information. In 5G NR, simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI is used to indicate whether the terminal device can combine HARQ-ACK and CSI. If HARQ-ACK and CSI can be combined, one UCI can be multiplexed to carry the information included in HARQ-ACK and CSI.

[0057] Before the terminal device sends the UCI to the network device, it needs to configure resources for transmitting each UCI to be sent, and then send each UCI according to the configuration result. Due to the different types of terminal device services, there are many specific types of UCI. For example, in 5G NR, UCI can be scheduling request (SR) in addition to the above-mentioned HARQ-ACK and CSI. Since different types of UCI have their own independent time domain behavior, the terminal device often encounters a situation where one UCI needs to be multiplexed to send information included in multiple UCIs.

[0058] However, since the network device configures each resource with indication information, the indication information of different resources can point to different determination results, so that the terminal device cannot determine whether the multiple UCIs to be transmitted can be combined. For example, in 5G NR, the resource configured by the terminal device for transmitting HARQ-ACK is resource A, and the resource for transmitting CSI is resource B. If the network device configures the resources, the simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI value configured for resource A is "true", and the simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI value configured for resource B is "false", then the terminal device will obtain mutually contradictory determination results according to the simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI of the two resources, so as to determine whether the HARQ-ACK and the CSI can be combined.

[0059] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides an information sending method, so that the terminal device can determine whether multiple UCIs can be combined.

[0060] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0061] It should be understood that the technical solutions of the present application can be applied to a wireless communication system, for example, Figure 1 The communication system 100 shown in FIG. 1 can include at least one network device and at least one terminal device, and the network device and the terminal device can communicate through a wireless air interface. For example, the network device in the communication system can correspond to Figure 1 The network device 101 shown in FIG. 1, and the terminal device can correspond to Figure 1 The terminal device 102 shown in FIG. 1.

[0062] In the following, without loss of generality, the interaction process between one terminal device and the network device is taken as an example to describe the embodiments of the present application in detail. The terminal device can be a terminal device in a wireless communication system which has a wireless connection relationship with the network device. It can be understood that the network device can transmit signals based on the same technical solutions with multiple terminal devices in the wireless communication system which have a wireless connection relationship. The present application does not limit this.

[0063] Next, the method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be introduced in combination with the accompanying drawings and the following three embodiments.

[0064] Figure 2 The information sending method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown from the perspective of device interaction. As Figure 2 shown, the method can include:

[0065] S201: The network device configures multiple resources for the terminal device to transmit UCI.

[0066] S202: The network device sends at least one indication information to the terminal device, wherein the first indication information is included in the at least one indication information.

[0067] The at least one indication information is carried in a resource of a downlink control channel or downlink control information, and the network device sends the at least one indication information to the terminal device through the downlink control channel.

[0068] S203: The terminal device determines whether the first UCI and the second UCI can be multiplexed according to the first indication information in the at least one indication information.

[0069] In a possible implementation, the method further includes S204: The terminal device sends the UCI to the network device.

[0070] In a possible implementation of S203, if the first indication information indicates that the first UCI and the second UCI are merged, the terminal device multiplexes one UCI to carry the information included in the first UCI and the second UCI, and sends the multiplexed UCI to the network device in S204. If the first indication information indicates that the first UCI and the second UCI are not merged, the terminal device can send the UCI with higher priority in the first UCI and the second UCI in S204, and the other UCI can be discarded or postponed to be sent. For example, if the first indication information indicates that the HARQ-ACK and the CSI are not merged, the terminal device sends the HARQ-ACK to the network device in S204, and discards the CSI.

[0071] In a possible implementation of S204, if the first indication information indicates that the first UCI and the second UCI are merged, the terminal device generates a new UCI, and carries the information included in the first UCI and the second UCI by multiplexing the newly generated UCI, so the multiplexed UCI can also be referred to as the merged first UCI and second UCI. Then, the terminal device can further configure a third resource for transmitting the multiplexed UCI from a plurality of resources configured by the network device for transmitting the UCI, and send the multiplexed UCI to the network device on the third resource for the multiplexed UCI.

[0072] In a possible implementation, the terminal device can also configure the resource configured for the UCI with more bit positions in the second UCI and the first UCI as the third resource for transmitting the multiplexed UCI. For example, the number of bit positions of the CSI is usually more than that of the HARQ-ACK, so when it is determined that the CSI and the HARQ-ACK can be merged, the terminal device can send the multiplexed UCI on the resource configured for transmitting the CSI.

[0073] In another possible implementation, in the case that the first UCI is scheduled by the network device, the network device sends a PUCCH resource indicator information to the terminal device, and the terminal device configures a resource for transmitting the first UCI according to the PUCCH resource indicator information. In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can also configure a third resource for transmitting the multiplexed UCI according to the PUCCH resource indicator.

[0074] Correspondingly, for the network device that sends the first indication information to the terminal device and indicates to combine the first UCI and the second UCI, the network device also configures a third resource for the multiplexed UCI, and receives the multiplexed UCI sent by the terminal device on the third resource. For the network device that sends the first indication information to the terminal device and indicates not to combine the first UCI and the second UCI, the network device receives the first UCI on the resource configured for the first UCI (assuming that the priority of the first UCI is higher).

[0075] It should be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first UCI and the second UCI are two UCIs that need to be multiplexed and sent by the terminal device, and optionally, the types of the first UCI and the second UCI are different. For example, the first UCI and the second UCI can correspond to different services respectively, such as the first UCI is HARQ-ACK and the second UCI is CSI. It should be understood that, in some scenarios, the types of the first UCI and the second UCI can also be the same, and the scenario in which the first UCI and the second UCI are the same type of UCI is also applicable to the method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and is also included in the embodiment of the present application.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can determine whether the first UCI and the second UCI need to be multiplexed and sent by the following methods:

[0077] Step one: The terminal device acquires the first UCI and the second UCI to be sent.

[0078] Step two: The terminal device configures resources for transmitting the first UCI and the second UCI respectively.

[0079] Figure 3a Taking the HARQ-ACK and the CSI in 5G NR as examples, the resource configuration result of the terminal device is exemplarily shown as follows, Figure 3aThe resources shown are 11 resources selected by the terminal device from multiple resources configured by the network device for transmitting UCIs. These 11 resources are resources within one time slot, each used to transmit 11 UCIs to be sent. One time slot includes 14 time-domain symbols (0-13). Each resource can occupy one or more time-domain symbols, and the time-domain symbols occupied by each resource are configured by the network device in S201.

[0080] like Figure 3a As shown, resource occupancy time domain symbols 6 to 13 are configured for transmitting HARQ-ACK, resource occupancy time domain symbols 5 to 12 are configured for transmitting CSI1, and resource occupancy time domain symbol 3 is configured for transmitting CSI2. Furthermore, this time slot may also include resources configured for transmitting SR, such as... Figure 3a The terminal equipment is also configured with eight resources for transmitting SR0 to SR7 respectively.

[0081] Step 3: The terminal device obtains the first resource set.

[0082] by Figure 3a Taking the resource configuration result shown as an example, according to Figure 3a The order of the initial time domain symbols for each resource in the table. Figure 3a The resource configuration results shown can also be as follows: Figure 3b As shown.

[0083] Any resource in the first resource set overlaps in the time domain with at least one other resource in the first resource set, and the resources in the first resource set are contiguous in the time domain. It should be understood that any two resources overlapping in the time domain means that the two resources occupy at least one identical time-domain symbol. For example... Figure 3b As shown, each resource in the first resource set indicated by the dashed line overlaps with at least one other resource in the first resource set in the time domain. Moreover, the first resource set is combined between time domain symbols 1 to 13, and there is at least one resource under each time domain symbol, that is, the first resource set is continuous in the time domain.

[0084] Step 4: When the resources configured for transmitting the first UCI and the resources configured for transmitting the second UCI are both included in the same first resource set, determine that the first UCI and the second UCI need to be reused.

[0085] In 5G NR, the first UCI is HARQ-ACK, and the second UCI is CSI. For example... Figure 3bAs shown, the first resource set includes resources configured for transmitting HARQ-ACK, resources configured for transmitting CSI1, and resources configured for transmitting CSI2, indicating that the terminal device needs to multiplex a UCI to transmit the information included in HARQ-ACK, CSI1, and CSI2. In a possible implementation, the multiplexed UCI can also transmit Figure 3b the information included in SR1 to SR7. Then, the terminal device can further determine whether HARQ-ACK and CSI1 can be combined and whether HARQ-ACK and CSI2 can be combined by using the method shown in Figure 2

[0086] Based on the method shown in Figure 2 The following two embodiments are provided by the embodiments of the present application to illustrate the method shown in Figure 2 The steps shown in the two embodiments can have different implementation manners, and the embodiments of the present application distinguish different implementation manners by using lowercase letters, for example, S201a is a possible implementation manner of S201, S202a is a possible implementation manner of S202, S201b is another possible implementation manner of S201, and so on, which will not be described herein.

[0087] Embodiment 1

[0088] S201a: The network device configures unified indication information, i.e., first indication information, for multiple resources.

[0089] In a possible implementation, the network device can configure unified indication information, i.e., first indication information, for multiple resources according to factors such as the propagation environment of the communication system. For example, for a terminal device far away from the base station and at the edge of the cell coverage, the propagation environment of the wireless communication system is relatively poor, and the network device uniformly configures the first indication information for multiple resources to indicate the terminal device not to combine the first UCI and the second UCI. For a terminal device close to the base station and in a well-covered area of the cell, the network device uniformly configures the first indication information for multiple resources to indicate the terminal device to combine the first UCI and the second UCI.

[0090] In a possible implementation, the indication information is a resource-level PUCCH format parameter (PUCCH-formatconfig), and the network device can configure the same indication information, i.e., first indication information, for each resource to indicate the same determination result, for example, the value of simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI configured by the network device for each resource in 5G NR is all “true” or all “false”.

[0091] ​In another possible implementation, the indication information is a channel-level PUCCH parameter (PUCCH-config), and in the embodiment of the present application, the network device configures indication information for the PUCCH channel where the plurality of resources for transmitting UCI are located, and the indication information is the first indication information.

[0092] S202a: The network device sends the first indication information to the terminal device.

[0093] S203a: The terminal device determines whether to combine the first UCI and the second UCI according to the first indication information sent by the network device.

[0094] With the embodiment 1, the terminal device can determine whether to combine the first UCI and the second UCI according to the unified first indication information configured by the network device for the plurality of resources, avoiding the case that the indication information of the first UCI contradicts the indication information of the second UCI, so that the terminal device can determine whether to combine the first UCI and the second UCI.

[0095] Embodiment 2

[0096] Based on the method shown in the embodiment 1, the present application further provides another possible implementation. Figure 2

[0097] S201b: The network device configures a plurality of resources for transmitting UCI for the terminal device.

[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, the network device configures each resource respectively to generate configuration information of each resource. The configuration information includes a plurality of configuration parameters such as format type, starting time domain symbol, and duration time domain symbol number. In addition, the configuration information further includes indication information configured by the network device for the resource. In the embodiment of the present application, the network device can configure indication information for each resource according to its own coverage range and network capacity, for example, indication information A indicates to combine the first UCI and the second UCI, and indication information B indicates not to combine the first UCI and the second UCI. The network device can first determine the number of indication information A that can be allocated according to its own coverage range and network capacity, for example, 20 indication information A can be allocated. Then, 20 indication information A is allocated for 20 resources in the plurality of resources for transmitting UCI, and the remaining resources are allocated indication information B. In a possible implementation, the network device can preferentially allocate indication information A for the first 20 resources with the most bit number.

[0099] S202b: The network device sends the plurality of indication information to the terminal device.

[0100] ​The multiple indication information sent by the network device can be indication information configured by the network device for all or part of the multiple resources in S201b. In a possible implementation, the network device can send the indication information of the multiple resources to the terminal device through configuration information.

[0101] The terminal device receives the configuration information of the multiple resources sent by the network device. Before performing S203b, the terminal device can first determine the first indication information from the multiple indication information, and then perform S203b, in which the terminal device determines whether to combine the first UCI and the second UCI according to the first indication information.

[0102] Based on this, in a possible implementation, the terminal device can determine the first resource from the first resource set according to the format type of the resource in the configuration information, and take the indication information in the first resource configuration information as the first indication information to perform S203b.

[0103] For example, when the format type of the resource configured for transmitting the first UCI is the first type, the terminal device can take the resource configured for transmitting the second UCI as the first resource. When the format type of the resource configured for transmitting the first UCI is the second type, the terminal device can take the resource configured for transmitting the first UCI as the first resource.

[0104] Generally, the network device can configure the format types of the resources as format0, format1, format2, format3, and format4, and the five format types can be used to carry different types of UCI. For example, format0 and format1 can be used to carry UCI with a smaller number of bits, and format2, format3, and format4 can be used to carry UCI with a larger number of bits. Assuming that the priority of the first UCI is higher than that of the second UCI, the first type described above can be format0 or format1, and the second type described above can be format2 or format3 or format4.

[0105] For example, when the format type of the resource configured for transmitting HARQ-ACK is format0 or format1, the terminal device can take the resource configured for transmitting CSI as the first resource. When the format type of the resource configured for transmitting HARQ-ACK is any one of format2, format3, and format4, the terminal device can take the resource configured for transmitting HARQ-ACK as the first resource.

[0106] When the format type of the resource configured for the HARQ-ACK is format0 or format1, it indicates that the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK is small, and thus whether to merge can be determined according to the indication information of the resource configured for the CSI. When the format type of the resource allocated for the HARQ-ACK is any one of format2, format3 and format4, it indicates that the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK is large, and since the priority of the HARQ-ACK is higher than that of the CSI, whether to merge should be determined according to the indication information of the resource configured for the HARQ-ACK.

[0107] S203: The terminal device determines whether to merge the first UCI and the second UCI according to the first indication information.

[0108] As described above, if the first indication information indicates to merge the first UCI and the second UCI, the terminal device can multiplex one UCI to carry the information included in the first UCI and the second UCI. Then, the terminal device configures a third resource for transmitting the multiplexed UCI. In a possible implementation, the terminal device can further acquire indication information included in the configuration information of the third resource. If the indication information included in the configuration information of the third resource indicates to merge the first UCI and the second UCI, the terminal device transmits the multiplexed UCI on the third resource. If the indication information included in the configuration information of the third resource indicates not to merge the first UCI and the second UCI, the terminal device transmits the UCI with higher priority between the first UCI and the second UCI on the third resource.

[0109] With the scheme provided in Embodiment 2, the first indication information can be determined more flexibly according to the case of the HARQ-ACK, and thus whether to merge the first UCI and the second UCI can be determined.

[0110] Embodiment 3

[0111] Figure 4 Another information transmission method flowchart provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 4, the method mainly includes the following steps: Figure 4

[0112] S401: The network device configures a plurality of resources for transmitting UCI for the terminal device.

[0113] In S401, the network device configures the resources similarly to S201b, and details are not described herein.

[0114] S402: The terminal device receives configuration information of each resource of the plurality of resources for transmitting uplink control information.

[0115] ​The terminal device receives configuration information of multiple resources sent by the network device through a downlink control channel. The configuration information of the multiple resources is the configuration information of each resource sent by the network device to the terminal device after the network device configures the multiple resources respectively in S401.

[0116] S403: The terminal device determines whether to merge the first UCI and the second UCI according to whether there is a resource in the first resource set for which the indication information in the configuration information is merge indication information. The merge indication information is indication information used to indicate merging of the first UCI and the second UCI.

[0117] As described above, the terminal device can determine whether to multiplex one UCI to send the information carried by the first UCI and the second UCI according to whether the resource configured for transmitting the first UCI and the resource configured for transmitting the second UCI belong to one first resource set.

[0118] Based on this, after the terminal device determines that it is necessary to multiplex one UCI to send the information carried by the first UCI and the second UCI, the terminal device can determine whether to merge the first UCI and the second UCI according to whether there is a resource in the first resource set for which the indication information in the configuration information is merge indication information. For example, if there is a resource for which the indication information in the configuration information is merge information, it is determined to merge the first UCI and the second UCI, and if there is no resource for which the indication information in the configuration information is merge information, it is determined not to merge the first UCI and the second UCI.

[0119] Taking the first resource set shown in Figure 3b For example, if the value of simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI in the configuration information of any resource in the first resource set is "true", it is determined to merge HARQ-ACK and CSI1, and HARQ-ACK and CSI2. If the value of simultaneousHARQ-ACK-CSI in the configuration information of all resources in the first resource set is "false", it is determined not to merge HARQ-ACK and CSI1, and HARQ-ACK and CSI2.

[0120] After the terminal device determines to merge the first UCI and the second UCI, the terminal device can configure a third resource for transmitting the merged first UCI and second UCI according to the method provided in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, and make further judgments according to the indication information included in the configuration information of the third resource.
