[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of wireless communication technologies but is not limited to the field of wireless communication technologies, and in particular to an information processing method, apparatus, communication device, and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] In related technologies, a discontinuous reception (DRX) mechanism is often used to monitor and transmit data in order to save terminal power consumption. In current multi-data stream service processing, such as the processing of extended reality (XR) services, since services often contain multiple data streams, the transmission conditions between different data streams may be different. Therefore, the DRX configuration during the data transmission process of XR and other services and the reporting of uplink auxiliary information by the terminal during the DRX process are less flexible and result in higher energy consumption.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of a wireless communication system provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the wireless communication system is a communication system based on cellular mobile communication technology, and the wireless communication system may include: several terminals 11 and several access devices 12.

[0033] Terminal 11 may refer to a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user. Terminal 11 may communicate with one or more core networks via a radio access network (RAN). Terminal 11 may be an IoT terminal, such as a sensor device, a mobile phone (or "cellular" phone), and a computer with an IoT terminal. For example, the terminal may be a fixed, portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-built-in, or vehicle-mounted device. Examples include a station (STA), subscriber unit, subscriber station, mobile station, mobile, remote station, access point, remote terminal, access terminal, user terminal, user agent, user device, or user equipment (terminal). Alternatively, terminal 11 may be a device on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

Alternatively, the terminal 11 may also be a roadside device, for example, a street lamp, a traffic light or other roadside device with a wireless communication function.

[0034] The access device 12 may be a network-side device in a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system may be a fourth generation mobile communication technology (4G) system, also known as a long term evolution (LTE) system; or, the wireless communication system may be a 5G system, also known as a new radio (NR) system or a 5G NR system. Alternatively, the wireless communication system may be a next generation system of the 5G system. The access network in the 5G system may be referred to as NG-RAN (New Generation-Radio Access Network). Alternatively, an MTC system.

[0035] Among them, the access device 12 can be an evolved access device (eNB) adopted in a 4G system. Alternatively, the access device 12 can also be an access device (gNB) adopting a centralized distributed architecture in a 5G system. When the access device 12 adopts a centralized distributed architecture, it usually includes a centralized unit (CU) and at least two distributed units (DU). The centralized unit is provided with a protocol stack of a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, a radio link layer control protocol (RLC) layer, and a media access control (MAC) layer; the distributed unit is provided with a physical (PHY) layer protocol stack. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific implementation method of the access device 12.

[0036] A wireless connection can be established between the access device 12 and the terminal 11 via a wireless air interface. In different implementations, 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, for example, the wireless air interface is a new air interface; or, the wireless air interface can also be a wireless air interface based on the next generation mobile communication network technology standard of 5G.

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). The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the implementation form of the network management device 13.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by a terminal. The method may include:

[0039] S110: Obtaining preset restriction conditions for a terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process and / or at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one DRX process;

[0040] S120: Based on a preset restriction condition, perform reporting control of at least one of the first type of information and the second type of information.

[0041] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal may be a user equipment (UE). At least one DRX process may be applied to a service with multiple data streams, such as an XR service. For example, the XR service may include an augmented reality (AR) service, a virtual reality (VR) service, or a cloud gaming service.

[0042] In one embodiment, obtaining the preset restriction condition may be receiving the preset restriction condition sent by a network side device such as a base station, or obtaining the preset restriction condition pre-configured in the terminal, or obtaining the preset restriction condition according to a protocol, etc.

[0043] In one embodiment, a DRX process may be a DRX cycle, and at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one DRX process may be multiple monitoring periods included in one DRX process, or may be multiple monitoring periods included in multiple DRX processes, for example, each DRX process only includes one monitoring period.

[0044] In one embodiment, executing reporting control may include: executing a reporting operation and / or stopping a reporting operation.

[0045] In one embodiment, each data stream may correspond to a monitoring period during the DRX process, wherein the monitoring period may occur periodically, and the time interval between two adjacent monitoring periods may match the data transmission period of the data stream. For example, the time interval may be equal to the data transmission period of the corresponding data stream, or may be equal to a preset multiple of the data transmission period of the corresponding data stream.

[0046] Here, the terminal activation period is the time period when the terminal is in the active state (Active). Outside the terminal activation period, the terminal is in the idle state or the inactive state, where the idle state is when the terminal and the base station are not in a connected state, and the active state and the inactive state are when the terminal and the base station are in a connected state.

[0047] The DRX process is when the terminal is in a connected state with the base station and does not need to continuously monitor the control channel sent by the base station, but monitors the control channel intermittently and discontinuously. Figure 3 As shown, the DRX process can be either a long cycle (LongCycle) or a short cycle (ShortCycle). The on-duration represents the time period during which the terminal monitors the control channel. During the on-duration, the terminal's RF channel is open and continuously monitors the control channel. Outside the on-duration, the terminal's RF link is closed and can be in a power-saving state. The on-duration occurs periodically, and the interval between adjacent on-durations can be configured by the base station.

[0048] In one embodiment, the DRX configuration parameters may include at least one of the following:

[0049] drx-onDurationTimer: the duration of the monitoring cycle at the beginning of the DRX process;

[0050] drx-SlotOffset: Delay duration before starting drx-onDurationTimer;

[0051] drx-InactivityTimer: For the current Medium Access Control (MAC) entity, the duration of a new uplink or downlink transmission indicated by the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH);

[0052] drx-RetransmissionTimerDL: used for downlink Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) processes other than broadcast, the maximum duration until a downlink retransmission is received;

[0053] drx-RetransmissionTimerUL: Maximum duration for the uplink HARQ process until an uplink grant for uplink retransmission is received;

[0054] drx-LongCycleStartOffset: indicates the DRX long cycle (drx-LongCycle) and the starting offset (drx-StartOffset), specifying the starting positions of the long cycle and short cycle;

[0055] drx-ShortCycle (optional): DRX short cycle;

[0056] drx-ShortCycleTimer (optional): duration of the UE's DRX short cycle;

[0057] drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerDL: For downlink HARQ except broadcast, the minimum duration before the MAC entity is expected to receive downlink resource allocation control signaling for downlink HARQ retransmission;

[0058] drx-HARQ-RTT-TimerUL: For the uplink HARQ process, the minimum duration before the MAC entity expects to receive uplink grant signaling for uplink HARQ retransmission.

[0059] In one embodiment, the first type of information and the second type of information may be uplink auxiliary information for uplink transmission from the terminal to the base station. For example, the first type of information may include: Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) and Channel State Information (CSI); the second type of information may include: CSI.

[0060] In one embodiment, the first type of information may include: at least one of: periodic SRS, semi-persistent SRS, periodic CSI, and semi-persistent CSI; and the second type of information may include: periodic CSI.

[0061] In one embodiment, performing reporting of at least one of the first type of information and the second type of information may include performing at least one of periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, and aperiodic reporting of SRS and / or CSI.

[0062] In one embodiment, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process and / or at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one DRX process may be restriction conditions for SRS and / or CSI reporting in the terminal activation period, and / or restriction conditions for CSI reporting in at least one monitoring period.

[0063] Exemplarily, the preset restriction conditions may include whether to perform SRS and / or CSI reporting during the terminal activation period, and whether to perform SRS and / or CSI reporting outside the terminal activation period. For example, part of the SRS and / or CSI reporting may be stopped outside the terminal activation period, such as stopping the periodic reporting or semi-continuous reporting of SRS and / or CSI.

[0064] Exemplarily, the preset restriction condition may include one or more listening periods for performing CSI reporting in at least one listening period, and may also include a CSI reporting period in the listening period for performing CSI reporting, etc.

[0065] In addition, the preset restriction condition may further include whether to perform CSI reporting outside the monitoring period for performing CSI reporting, for example, stopping the reporting of part of the CSI outside the monitoring period, such as stopping the periodic reporting or semi-continuous reporting of CSI.

[0066] In this way, the multiple data streams included in services such as XR can be monitored separately through multiple monitoring periods set in one or more DRX processes. SRS and / or CSI are reported based on the terminal activation period and the restrictions of different monitoring periods. This can improve the control flexibility of uplink information reporting operations for multi-data stream services. At the overall service level, the matching degree of information reporting operations between monitoring periods corresponding to multiple data streams can be improved. Through flexible control, it can also reduce the energy consumption caused by unnecessary repeated reporting operations in multi-data stream transmission.

[0067] like Figure 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by a terminal. The method may include:

[0068] S210: Obtaining preset restriction conditions for terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process, wherein each DRX process corresponds to a monitoring period;

[0069] S220: Based on a preset restriction condition, perform reporting control of at least one of the first type of information and the second type of information.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when there are multiple DRX processes, one DRX process corresponds to a monitoring cycle, each DRX cycle may include a monitoring period, each DRX process and its corresponding monitoring period may correspond to a data stream transmission process, and the control channel where the corresponding data stream is transmitted is monitored within a monitoring period.

[0071] In one embodiment, different DRX processes correspond to different data streams, and thus the DRX configuration parameters corresponding to different DRX processes may be different. For example, the DRX configuration parameters corresponding to the DRX process may be determined based on transmission parameters such as the transmission period of the data stream corresponding to the DRX process and / or data stream parameters such as the data volume.

[0072] In one embodiment, the preset restriction conditions for the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process may be different for the monitoring periods corresponding to different DRX processes, or the preset restriction conditions for the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes may be partially or completely the same. For example, the base station may configure or determine according to a protocol that CSI reporting is performed during the monitoring period of one DRX process among multiple DRX processes, while CSI reporting is not performed during the monitoring periods of other DRX processes.

[0073] In one embodiment, the preset restriction conditions for the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process may further indicate the reporting of CSI within and outside the monitoring periods corresponding to different DRX processes. For example, it may be indicated that CSI reporting is not performed outside the monitoring period of at least one DRX process, such as not performing periodic or semi-continuous reporting of CSI outside the monitoring period of at least one DRX process.

[0074] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process may include:

[0075] Stop reporting the first type of information outside the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and / or stop reporting the second type of information outside at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one DRX process among multiple DRX processes.

[0076] In one embodiment, the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes may be the same. At least one of the multiple DRX processes may be a target DRX process, which may be determined by the base station and indicated to the terminal, or may be determined according to a protocol.

[0077] In one embodiment, the at least one DRX process may be one DRX process, multiple DRX processes, or all DRX processes among multiple DRX processes corresponding to the to-be-processed service.

[0078] In one embodiment, during the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process, reporting of first type information may be performed, for example, may include periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, and non-periodic reporting of SRS, and may also include periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, and non-periodic reporting of CSI. Stopping the reporting of first type information outside the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process among multiple DRX processes may be, when the terminal activation periods corresponding to the multiple DRX processes are the same, stopping the periodic reporting and semi-persistent reporting of SRS outside the terminal activation period, or, when the terminal activation periods corresponding to the multiple DRX processes are different, stopping the periodic reporting and semi-persistent reporting of SRS outside the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process and during a period that does not overlap with the terminal activation periods corresponding to other DRX processes.

[0079] In one embodiment, outside the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process, the periodic reporting and semi-persistent reporting of the CSI may be stopped.

[0080] In one embodiment, reporting of the second type of information may be performed within multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process, for example, including periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, and aperiodic reporting of CSI. Reporting of the second type of information may be stopped outside the monitoring period corresponding to the at least one DRX process, for example, stopping periodic reporting of CSI.

[0081] In one embodiment, at least one DRX process may be specified by a base station or a terminal, or may be agreed upon by a protocol.

[0082] In this way, by controlling the reporting operation of the first type of information and / or the second type of information outside the terminal activation period and / or the listening period, the information reporting during the period when business data transmission is not performed can be accurately controlled, thereby reducing the energy consumption and resource overhead caused by unnecessary information reporting.

[0083] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process may include:

[0084] The reporting of the first type of information is stopped outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and / or the reporting of the second type of information is stopped outside the target monitoring period corresponding to the target DRX process.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the target DRX process may be specified by the base station or the terminal, or may be determined according to a protocol.

[0086] In one embodiment, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring period corresponding to multiple DRX processes may also include: stopping the reporting of the first type of information in at least one other DRX process different from the target DRX process, and / or stopping the reporting of the second type of information in other DRX processes.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process, stopping the reporting of the first type of information may include stopping the periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS, and may also include stopping the periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of CSI.

[0088] In one embodiment, stopping reporting of the first type of information in other DRX processes may include stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS, including stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS during the terminal activation period in other DRX processes, and stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS outside the terminal activation period.

[0089] In one embodiment, stopping reporting of the first type of information in other DRX processes may also include stopping periodic reporting and semi-persistent reporting of CSI in other DRX processes.

[0090] In one embodiment, stopping the periodic reporting of CSI in other DRX processes includes stopping the periodic reporting of CSI in the monitoring period of other DRX processes and stopping the periodic reporting of CSI outside the monitoring period of other DRX processes.

[0091] In this way, reporting of the first type of information and / or the second type of information is performed only in one target DRX process, and reporting is stopped outside the activation period and the monitoring period. The information reporting of other DRX processes is restricted, so there is no need to report the first type of information and the second type of information in all DRX processes, further reducing the energy consumption and resource overhead generated by information reporting.

[0092] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes may include:

[0093] Preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period and / or monitoring period corresponding to a target DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period and / or at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one other DRX process different from the target DRX process.

[0094] Here, the target DRX process may be specified by the base station or the terminal, or may be determined according to a protocol. The preset restriction condition may also be specified by the base station or the terminal, or may be determined according to a protocol. Other DRX processes are DRX processes other than the target DRX process among the multiple DRX processes.

[0095] In one embodiment, the multiple DRX processes may be two DRX processes. That is, when there are two DRX processes corresponding to the pending service, the preset restriction conditions for one of the target DRX processes may be different from the preset restriction conditions for the other DRX processes. For example, the preset restriction conditions corresponding to the target DRX process may be preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period corresponding to the target DRX process, and the preset restriction conditions corresponding to the other DRX processes may be preset restriction conditions for the monitoring periods corresponding to the other DRX processes, etc.

[0096] In one embodiment, the multiple DRX processes may be three or more DRX processes. That is, when there are three or more DRX processes corresponding to the pending service, the preset restriction condition corresponding to at least one other DRX process may be the same or different. For example, when there are three DRX processes, the preset restriction condition corresponding to one target DRX process may be a preset restriction condition for the terminal activation period corresponding to the target DRX process, and the preset restriction conditions corresponding to two other DRX processes may both be preset restriction conditions for the monitoring periods corresponding to the other DRX processes.

[0097] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process may include:

[0098] Stop reporting the first type of information outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and / or stop reporting the second type of information outside the target monitoring period corresponding to at least one other DRX process different from the target DRX process.

[0099] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process, stopping reporting of the first type of information may include: stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS, and may also stop periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of CSI.

[0100] For example, for the two DRX processes corresponding to the pending services, the periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS are stopped outside the terminal activation period corresponding to one of the target DRX processes; and the periodic reporting of CSI is stopped outside the monitoring period corresponding to the other DRX process.

[0101] In this way, different preset restriction conditions are adopted for different DRX processes and different time periods, so as to realize the control of the overall uplink information reporting operation of the pending services through division of labor, and further improve the flexibility and accuracy of the information reporting operation control.

[0102] In some embodiments, stopping reporting of the first type of information outside a terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and / or stopping reporting of the second type of information outside a target listening period corresponding to at least one other DRX process different from the target DRX process may include:

[0103] outside a terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process among the multiple DRX processes, stopping reporting of the first type of information, and outside a monitoring period corresponding to the target DRX process, stopping reporting of the second type of information;

[0104] And / or, stopping reporting of the first type of information and the second type of information in at least one other DRX process different from the target DRX process.

[0105] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process, the reporting of the first type of information is stopped, for example, including stopping the periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS, and may also include stopping the periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of CSI.

[0106] In one embodiment, reporting of the first type of information is stopped in other DRX processes, for example, including stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS during the terminal activation period in other DRX processes, and stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of SRS outside the terminal activation period.

[0107] In one embodiment, stopping reporting of the first type of information in other DRX processes may also include stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of CSI in other DRX processes, for example, stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of CSI during the terminal activation period in other DRX processes, and stopping periodic reporting and semi-continuous reporting of CSI outside the terminal activation period.

[0108] In one embodiment, stopping reporting of the second type of information in other DRX processes may include stopping periodic reporting of CSI within the listening period corresponding to the other DRX processes, and stopping periodic reporting of CSI outside the listening period corresponding to the other DRX processes.

[0109] In this way, SRS and / or CSI reporting is performed only in one target DRX process, and reporting is stopped outside the activation period and the monitoring period. The SRS and / or CSI reporting of other DRX processes is restricted, so there is no need to report SRS and / or CSI in all DRX processes, further reducing the energy consumption and resource overhead generated by auxiliary information reporting.

[0110] like Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by a terminal. The method may include:

[0111] S310: Obtaining preset restriction conditions for multiple monitoring periods corresponding to a DRX process;

[0112] S320: Based on a preset restriction condition, perform reporting control of at least one of the first type of information and the second type of information.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, multiple data streams of the to-be-processed service correspond to the same DRX process, which includes multiple monitoring periods, wherein each monitoring period corresponds to a data stream. During the monitoring period, the data stream corresponding to the monitoring period can be monitored and received.

[0114] In one embodiment, reporting of first type information may be performed within multiple listening periods of a listening period, including reporting of SRS and / or CSI, such as periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, and aperiodic reporting of SRS and / or CSI.

[0115] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for multiple monitoring periods corresponding to a DRX process may include:

[0116] When the terminal is configured with the CSI mask CSI-mask, the reporting of the second type of information is stopped outside one or more target listening periods in the multiple listening periods.

[0117] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when a terminal is configured with a CSI mask (CSI-mask), it indicates that reporting of the second type of information is to be stopped outside of a listening period, for example, including stopping periodic reporting of CSI. Based on this, a target listening period can be specified by the base station or the terminal or determined according to a protocol, and reporting of the second type of information can be performed only within the target listening period. This further reduces energy consumption and resource overhead generated by information reporting based on stopping reporting of the second type of information outside of the listening period.

[0118] In one embodiment, the one or more target listening periods may be one, multiple or all of the listening periods.

[0119] In one embodiment, the target listening period is determined according to a protocol or specified by a network-side device.

[0120] The network side device may be a base station or other network side device.

[0121] In some embodiments, when the target monitoring period is specified by the network-side device, it may also include:

[0122] When the terminal is not configured with a CSI-mask, reporting of the first type of information is stopped outside a terminal activation period corresponding to a DRX process.

[0123] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the terminal is configured with CSI-mask, the preset restriction condition restricts the reporting of the second type of information within one, multiple or all listening periods; when the terminal is not configured with CSI-mask, the preset restriction condition restricts the reporting of the first type of information within the terminal activation period.

[0124] For example, when the terminal is not configured with a CSI-mask, periodic reporting, semi-continuous reporting, and non-periodic reporting of SRS and / or CSI are performed during the terminal activation period, or SRS and / or CSI reporting is performed during one or more terminal activation periods determined according to the protocol or specified by the base station.

[0125] In one embodiment, the preset restriction condition may further include: when the terminal is not configured with a CSI-mask, stopping reporting of the first type of information outside the terminal activation period, for example, stopping periodic reporting or semi-continuous reporting of SRS and / or CSI.

[0126] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for multiple monitoring periods corresponding to a DRX process may include:

[0127] When it is determined that the network-side device is configured with a preset switch, the reporting of the second type of information is stopped outside one or more target listening periods in the plurality of listening periods.

[0128] In one embodiment, the preset restriction conditions for multiple listening periods corresponding to a DRX process may also include: when it is determined that the network side device is not configured with a preset switch and the terminal is configured with a CSI-mask, performing reporting of the second type of information in all listening periods in the multiple listening periods.

[0129] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a preset switch configured in a network side device, such as a base station, is used to indicate that a preset restriction condition restricts the reporting of the second type of information in one or more target listening periods specified by the base station. For example, when the preset switch is configured, periodic reporting, semi-continuous reporting, and non-periodic reporting of CSI are performed within one or more target listening periods specified by the base station.

[0130] In one embodiment, when the preset switch is configured, the reporting of the second type of information may be stopped outside the target listening period, for example, the periodic reporting of the CSI may be stopped.

[0131] In one embodiment, when the preset switch is not configured, if the terminal is configured with CSI-mask, the second type of information can be reported in the entire monitoring period, such as periodic reporting, semi-continuous reporting, and aperiodic reporting of CSI.

[0132] In one embodiment, when the preset switch is not configured, if the terminal is configured with a CSI-mask, it may further include stopping reporting of the second type of information outside the monitoring period, for example, stopping periodic reporting of CSI.

[0133] In this way, the number of time periods for uplink information reporting can be further reduced through a preset switch or a method specified by a network-side device, thereby further reducing the energy consumption and resource overhead generated by information reporting.

[0134] like Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which is executed by a network-side device. The method may include:

[0135] S410: Sending preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one DRX process and / or at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one DRX process to the terminal; the preset restriction conditions are used to execute reporting control of at least one of the first type of information and the second type of information.

[0143] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process include:

[0144] The reporting of the first type of information is stopped outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and / or the reporting of the second type of information is stopped outside the target monitoring period corresponding to the target DRX process.

[0145] Here, the target DRX process and the target monitoring period may be specified by the network side device.

[0146] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation periods corresponding to multiple DRX processes and / or the multiple monitoring periods corresponding to at least one DRX process include:

[0147] Stop reporting the first type of information outside the terminal activation period corresponding to a target DRX process among multiple DRX processes, and / or stop reporting the second type of information outside the target monitoring period corresponding to at least one other DRX process different from the target DRX process.

[0148] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for the terminal activation period corresponding to at least one discontinuous reception (DRX) process and / or at least one monitoring period corresponding to at least one DRX process include:

[0149] Preset restriction conditions for multiple monitoring periods in a DRX process.

[0150] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for multiple monitoring periods in a DRX process include:

[0151] When the terminal is configured with the CSI mask CSI-mask, the reporting of the second type of information is stopped outside one or more target listening periods in the multiple listening periods.

[0152] Here, the target monitoring period may be specified by the network side device, or determined based on negotiation between the network side device and the terminal, etc. Negotiating and determining with the terminal may include determining based on the contract information of the terminal or based on an agreement, etc.

[0153] In some embodiments, the preset restriction conditions for multiple monitoring periods in a DRX process include:

[0154] When it is determined that the network-side device is configured with a preset switch, the reporting of the second type of information is stopped outside one or more target listening periods in the plurality of listening periods.

[0155] The present disclosure provides a method for a terminal to report information under a DRX configuration, wherein a set of DRX configurations corresponds to a DRX process. Specifically, the method may include:

[0156] 1. In the case of multiple DRX configurations, specify or agree on a target DRX configuration that imposes additional restrictions on terminal reporting information:

[0157] a) The additional restrictions on terminal reporting information include at least one of the following:

[0158] Constraint 1: If the terminal is not in the terminal activation period, it is not necessary to report periodic SRS (Periodic SRS) and semi-persistent SRS (Semi-Persistent SRS), and it is also not necessary to report periodic CSI (CSI on PUCCH) and semi-persistent CSI (Semi-Persistent CSI configured on PUSCH);

[0159] Constraint 2: If the terminal is not in the monitoring period (onduration), periodic CSI (CSI onPUCCH) reporting is not performed.

[0160] 2. In the case of multiple DRX configurations, additional restrictions on terminal reporting information are specified or agreed upon for all configured multiple DRX configurations:

[0161] a) At this point, the following operations can be performed for all configured DRX parameters (i.e., using the same constraint 1 or constraint 2):

[0162] That is, for any set of DRX configurations:

[0163] If the terminal is not in the terminal activation period, there is no need to report periodic SRS and semi-persistent SRS, and periodic CSI and semi-persistent CSI are not reported. And / or, if the terminal is not in the monitoring period (onduration), periodic CSI reporting is not performed (that is, if CSI-mask is configured, it is effective for all DRX configurations).

[0164] That is, for a set of DRX configurations, if multiple monitoring periods are configured:

[0165] If the terminal is not in the monitoring period (onduration), periodic CSI reporting is not performed;

[0166] If CSI-mask is configured, if the terminal is not in any listening period onduration, periodic CSI reporting is not performed, or the terminal can only perform periodic CSI reporting when it is in any listening period onduration.

[0167] 3. In the case of multiple DRX configurations, additional restrictions on terminal reporting information for a specific DRX configuration are specified or agreed upon by the protocol:

[0168] a) In one embodiment, the following operations can be performed for both sets of configured DRX parameters:

[0169] The following restrictions are imposed on one set of DRX parameters:

[0170] If the terminal is not in the terminal active period, it does not need to report periodic SRS and semi-persistent SRS, and does not report periodic CSI and semi-persistent CSI. And / or, if the terminal is not in the listening period, periodic CSI reporting is not performed.

[0171] The following restrictions are not imposed on another set of DRX parameters.

[0172] Among them, not adding the following restrictions may include: even if the terminal is in the terminal activation period, it is not allowed to report periodic SRS and semi-persistent SRS, or report periodic CSI and semi-persistent CSI, and / or, even if the terminal is in the listening period, it is not allowed to perform periodic CSI reporting.

[0173] In this way, only one set of DRX configuration is used for reporting, saving signaling overhead.

[0174] b) In one embodiment, the following operations can be performed for both sets of DRX configurations:

[0175] The CSI-mask may be configured for only one set of DRX configuration parameters (restriction 2).

[0176] That is, for the first set of DRX configuration parameters, the attached restriction condition 1 can be used at this time, that is, reporting during the terminal activation period;

[0177] For the second set of DRX configuration parameters, the appendix restriction 2 can be used, that is, reporting is performed only during the monitoring period;

[0178] That is, the network can add different reporting restrictions for different DRX configurations to increase flexibility.

[0179] 4. When one set of DRX is configured with multiple monitoring periods, the target monitoring period configuration with additional restrictions on terminal reporting information is specified or agreed upon by the protocol (i.e., the monitoring periods in which auxiliary information is reported are specified):

[0180] a) In one embodiment, the protocol stipulates that if a CSI-mask is configured, it is reported only during a specified period (e.g., the first listening period), thereby further saving reporting signaling overhead and power consumption;

[0181] b) In one embodiment: the protocol stipulates that if a CSI-mask is configured, it is reported in all monitoring periods, that is, the CSI-mask is applied to multiple monitoring periods;

[0182] c) In one embodiment, reporting is performed only during a period specified by the network (e.g., the first monitoring period), thereby further saving reporting signaling overhead and power consumption.

[0183] In one embodiment, the network may send down the monitoring periods in which the auxiliary information is reported, such as the first, second, etc.

[0184] Exemplarily, c) and a) can be used in combination, that is, if a CSI-mask is configured, additional restrictions are imposed on the specified monitoring period;

[0185] In one embodiment (specifying the target listening period as the first configured listening period):

[0186] If CSI-mask is configured, if the terminal's first listening period onduration is not running, taking into account the received grant and the DRX Media Access Control-Control Element (MAC-Control Element, MAC-CE) received 4 ms before the current symbol n, CSI is not reported on the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH).

[0187] In one embodiment, if the upper layer configures CSI-mask: in the current symbol n, if the DRX group indicated DRX listening timer (drx-onDurationTimer) does not run taking into account the grants and allocations scheduled on the serving cells in this DRX group, and when evaluating all DRX active time conditions specified in this section, a DRX command MAC-CE and / or a long DRX command MAC-CE is received 4 ms before the current symbol n, CSI on PUCCH is not reported in this DRX group.

[0188] d) A preset switch is newly introduced in the network. If the preset switch is configured, reporting will only be performed during a specific or designated period (such as the first monitoring period);

[0189] In one embodiment, d) and b) can be used in combination, that is, if the preset switch is configured, additional restrictions are imposed on specific or designated listening periods (i.e., no reporting is performed when the monitoring period is not in progress); otherwise, if the preset switch is not configured but the CSI-mask is configured, additional reporting restrictions are imposed on all listening periods (i.e., no reporting is performed when the monitoring period is not in progress).

[0190] In one embodiment (specifying the target listening period as the first configured listening period):

[0191] If CSI-mask is configured, then if the first listening period of the terminal is not running, taking into account the received grant and the DRX MAC-CE received 4 ms before the current symbol n, CSI is not reported on the PUCCH.

[0192] Otherwise, if CSI-mask is configured, then if the terminal's listening period is not running, taking into account the received grant and the DRX MAC-CE received 4 ms before the current symbol n, no CSI is reported on the PUCCH.

[0193] In one embodiment, if the upper layer configures CSI-mask:

[0194] In the current symbol n, if the first DRX onDurationTimer in the DRX group is not running, taking into account the grants and assignments scheduled on the serving cells in this DRX group, and a DRX command MAC-CE and / or a long DRX command MAC-CE is received 4 ms before the current symbol n, no CSI on PUCCH is reported in this DRX group when evaluating all DRX active time conditions specified in this section.

[0195] In one embodiment, if the upper layer configures CSI-mask:

[0196] In the current symbol n, if the DRX onDurationTimer (drx-onDurationTimer) in the DRX group is not running taking into account the grants and assignments scheduled on the serving cells in this DRX group, and a DRX command MAC-CE and / or a long DRX command MAC-CE is received 4 ms before the current symbol n, no CSI on the PUCCH is reported in this DRX group when evaluating all DRX active time conditions specified in this section.
