[0029] Example embodiments now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example embodiments, however, can be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of example embodiments to those skilled in the art.

In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to give a thorough understanding of embodiments of the disclosure. One skilled in the relevant art will recognize, however, that the techniques described herein can be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or with other methods, components, materials, and so forth. In other instances, well-known structures, materials, or operations are not shown or described in detail in order to avoid obscuring aspects of the disclosure.
[0031] In addition, the terms "first", "second", and the like, do not denote any quantity or order but are used as labels for distinguishing between different entities. Thus, a feature specified as "first" can implicitly or explicitly include one or more of the feature, and a feature specified as "second" can implicitly or explicitly include one or more of the feature. In the description of the disclosure, the meaning of "a plurality" is at least two, for example, two, three, and the like, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited. The symbol " / " generally represents an "or" relationship between the objects before and after it.
[0032] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the term "connected" and the like should be interpreted broadly, for example, can be electrically connected or can communicate with each other; can be directly connected, or can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0033] Currently, the random access procedure of NR can be divided into contention-based random access and non-contention-based random access. The contention-based random access procedure is as follows: Figure 1The four-step access procedure is shown. Figure 2 An RAR format diagram in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, wherein the RAR includes uplink grant information.
[0034] When the initial transmission of Msg3 PUSCH is performed, the base station indicates the corresponding transmission resource through the UL grant information of the random access response. In the related protocol, the RAR UL grant contains a total of 27 bits, as shown in the following table:
[0035]
[0036] Table 1
[0037] Those skilled in the art should understand that the RAR UL grant does not have additional padding bits and reserved bits for the indication of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions, and if the size of the RAR UL grant is changed, it will cause serious compatibility problems. The inventors of the present disclosure comprehensively consider various aspects of the existing protocol and provide a new technical solution for indicating the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions through the RAR UL grant information, without changing the number of bits of the RAR UL grant.
[0038] One implementation is that the base station schedules the user to perform the repeated transmission of Msg3; the base station transmits corresponding Msg3 resource configuration information in the RAR UL grant, which includes the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions; and the user terminal performs the corresponding Msg3 repeated transmission according to the configuration of the base station.
[0039] Figure 3 A data transmission method in a random access procedure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. It is applied to the base station or the network side.
[0040] As Figure 3 shown, in step 302, the base station receives the random access preamble sent by the UE (User Equipment).
[0041] In step 304, the base station sends the RAR to the UE, and the RAR includes the UL grant information; wherein the UL grant information includes the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions, so that the UE determines the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions according to the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions.
[0042] In the above embodiment, the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions is carried in the UL grant information in the RAR, and the number of bits of the UL grant information is not changed, which maximizes the compatibility with the existing protocol, and improves the resource utilization efficiency.
[0043] Figure 4 A data transmission method in a random access procedure according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, which is applied to a user terminal.
[0044] As shown in Figure 4 Step 402, the UE sends a random access preamble to the base station.
[0045] Step 404, the UE receives a RAR from the network side, which includes UL grant information, wherein the UL grant information includes configuration information of the number of Msg3 repetitions;
[0046] Step 406, the UE determines the number of Msg3 repetitions according to the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repetitions in the UL grant information in the RAR.
[0047] In the above embodiment, the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repetitions is carried in the UL grant information in the RAR, and the bit number of the UL grant information is not changed, which improves the resource utilization efficiency while maximizing the compatibility with the existing protocol.
[0048] In some embodiments, the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repetitions is indicated by the PUSCH time domain resource allocation field in the RAR UL grant information.
[0049] The PUSCH time domain resource allocation field in the RAR UL grant information contains 4 bits, and the bit value of the field represents a specific index value, which corresponds to a certain row of information in a set of uplink time domain resource allocation information indication table configured by SIB1 (System Information Block 1) or a certain row of information in the uplink time domain resource allocation information indication table predefined according to the protocol. In one embodiment, the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repetitions is added to the time domain resource allocation field, so as to indicate the number of Msg3 repetitions by the PUSCH time domain resource allocation information in the RAR UL grant information.
[0050] In one embodiment, there are two time domain resource allocation information indication tables, the first time domain resource allocation information indication table is the original time domain resource allocation information indication table, which does not contain the number of Msg3 repetitions, and is used for users who do not support Msg3 repetition or for users who are not scheduled by the base station to perform Msg3 repetition; the second time domain resource allocation information indication table is a newly added time domain resource allocation information indication table, which contains the number of Msg3 repetitions, and is used for users who are scheduled by the base station to perform Msg3 repetition. The following table is an example of a second time domain resource allocation information indication table:
[0051]
[0052] The definition of j in the above table is as follows:
[0053] μ PUSCH ]]> j 0 1 1 1 2 2 3 3
[0054] Table 3
[0055] wherein μ PUSCH indicates the subcarrier spacing of Msg3, and their specific relationship is:
[0056] The subcarrier spacing of Msg3 = 15 kHz * 2^(μ PUSCH ) (1)
[0057] When μ PUSCH = 0, the subcarrier spacing of Msg3 is 15 kHz, and the corresponding j = 1; when μ PUSCH = 3, the subcarrier spacing of Msg3 is 120 kHz, and the corresponding j = 3.
[0058] The base station can inform the user whether to schedule the user for Msg3 repeated transmission in various ways, so that the user determines to use the second (new) or first (original) time domain resource allocation information indication table. For example, the base station can inform the user to use which (first / second) time domain resource allocation information indication table in an implicit or explicit manner.
[0059] In one embodiment, the base station informs the user terminal whether to schedule the user for Msg3 repeated transmission in an implicit manner: when the user requests Msg3 repeated transmission, the base station and the user terminal both use the new time domain resource allocation information indication table; when the user does not request Msg3 repeated transmission, the base station and the user terminal both use the original time domain resource allocation information indication table. Those skilled in the art should understand that the user does not request Msg3 repeated transmission can include that the user does not have the capability of Msg3 repeated transmission, or the user has the capability of Msg3 repeated transmission but does not actively initiate the Msg3 repeated transmission request. An embodiment in which the base station informs the user terminal whether to schedule the user for Msg3 repeated transmission in an implicit manner is provided below.
[0060] Figure 5 A data transmission method in a random access procedure according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0061] As Figure 5As shown, S502, the base station acquires a first time domain resource allocation information indication table and a second time domain resource allocation information indication table, wherein the first time domain resource allocation information indication table does not include the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3, and the second time domain resource allocation information indication table includes the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3. The first time domain resource allocation information indication table and the second time domain resource allocation information indication table can be pre-set; or the first time domain resource allocation information indication table and the second time domain resource allocation information indication table are semi-statically configured by RRC (Radio Resource Control).
[0062] S504, the base station receives a random access preamble from the user terminal.
[0063] S506, determine whether the user requests Msg3 repeated transmission, if yes, continue S508, if no, continue S510. For example, the base station can determine whether the user requests Msg3 repeated transmission according to the different time-frequency resource positions of PRACH sent by the user or according to the different preambles.
[0064] S508, the base station generates a random access response including uplink grant information, wherein the time domain resource allocation information in the UL grant information in the random access response is generated according to the second time domain resource allocation information indication table, and the configuration information including the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3.
[0065] S510, the base station generates a random access response including uplink grant information, wherein the time domain resource allocation information is generated according to the first time domain resource allocation information indication table, and the configuration information not including the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3.
[0066] S512, the base station sends a random access response including uplink grant information to the user terminal.
[0067] S514, after the user terminal receives the random access response, it carries out different subsequent processing according to whether it requests Msg3 repeated transmission, if yes, continue S516, if no, continue S520.
[0068] S516, the user terminal determines the time domain resource allocation information according to the second time domain resource allocation information indication table, and determines the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3.
[0069] S518, the user terminal carries out Msg3 repeated transmission according to the determined number of repeated transmissions of Msg3, and carries out subsequent processing.
[0070] S520, the user terminal determines the time domain resource allocation information according to the first time domain resource allocation information indication table, wherein the configuration information not including the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3, and carries out subsequent processing.
[0071] In the above embodiments, the base station determines whether to use the first time domain resource allocation information indication table or the second time domain resource allocation information indication table to generate the content of the time domain resource allocation field in the UL grant information in the random access response in an implicit manner, and the user terminal also determines whether to use the first time domain resource allocation information indication table or the second time domain resource allocation information indication table to parse the content of the time domain resource allocation field in the UL grant information in an implicit manner, thereby saving signaling overhead and improving resource utilization.
[0072] In one embodiment, the base station determines whether to use the first time domain resource allocation information indication table or the second time domain resource allocation information indication table to generate the content of the time domain resource allocation field in the UL grant information in the random access response in an explicit manner: the base station indicates whether to use the new (second) time domain resource allocation information indication table by 1 bit, and the 1 bit information can be a reserved bit in the RAR. A specific example is as follows Figure 6
[0073] Figure 6 A data transmission method in a random access process according to yet another embodiment of the disclosure is shown.
[0074] As Figure 6 shown, S602, the base station acquires a first time domain resource allocation information indication table and a second time domain resource allocation information indication table, wherein the first time domain resource allocation information indication table does not include the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3, and the second time domain resource allocation information indication table includes the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3.
[0075] S604, the base station receives a random access preamble from a user terminal.
[0076] S606, the base station determines whether Msg3 repeated transmission is needed, if yes, continue to S608, if no, continue to S610.
[0077] S608, the base station sets a predetermined bit in the RAR to a first value; the base station generates a random access response including uplink grant information, wherein the time domain resource allocation information in the UL grant information in the random access response is generated according to the second time domain resource allocation information indication table, including the configuration information of the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3.
[0078] S610, the base station sets a predetermined bit in the RAR to a second value; the base station generates a random access response including uplink grant information, wherein the time domain resource allocation information is generated according to the first time domain resource allocation information indication table, wherein the configuration information of the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3 is not included.
[0079] S612, the base station sends a random access response including uplink grant information to the user terminal.
[0080] S614, the user terminal receives the random access response.
[0081] S616, the user terminal determines whether the predetermined bit of the RAR is the first value, if yes, continue S618, if no, continue S622.
[0082] S618, the user terminal determines the time domain resource allocation information according to the second time domain resource allocation information indication table, and determines the Msg3 repetition transmission number.
[0083] S620, the user terminal performs Msg3 repetition transmission according to the determined Msg3 repetition transmission number, and performs subsequent processing.
[0084] S622, the user terminal determines the time domain resource allocation information according to the first time domain resource allocation information indication table, wherein the configuration information of the Msg3 repetition transmission number is not included, and performs subsequent processing.
[0085] In the above embodiment, the base station determines whether to use the first time domain resource allocation information indication table or the second time domain resource allocation information indication table to generate the content of the time domain resource allocation field in the UL grant information by an explicit way, and performs different processing, which improves flexibility and resource utilization.
[0086] The MCS (modulation and coding strategy) field in the RAR UL grant information contains 4 bits, which is used to indicate the modulation and coding information of the user uplink transmission, and points to the first 16 rows of the MCS index table. In some embodiments, the configuration information of the Msg3 repetition transmission number is indicated by the MCS field in the RAR UL grant information.
[0087] For users who need coverage enhancement, the modulation and coding order is generally low, and high-order modulation and coding order is not used, and too fine modulation and coding indication is not needed. In some embodiments, the MCS field can be split into two parts, the first part contains 2 or 3 bits, which is used for original modulation and coding information indication, and the second part contains the remaining 2 or 1 bit, which is used to indicate the repetition transmission number of Msg3.
[0088] Figure 7 A data transmission method in a random access process according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0089] As shown in Figure 7 S702, the user terminal receives a random access response from the network side, and the random access response includes uplink grant information.
[0090] S704, the user terminal extracts the data of the MCS field from the uplink grant information.
[0091] S706, the user terminal determines the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3 according to the predetermined bit in the MCS field.
[0092] For example, assuming that the bit value of the MCS is 1101, the original modulation and coding information indicated by the index of "13" is indicated; taking splitting into two 2-bit as an example, i.e. 11|01, the modulation and coding information is now indicated by "11", i.e. the modulation and coding information indicated by the index of "3", and the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3 is indicated by "01", indicating the second of the four kinds of Msg3 repeated transmission configuration, taking the repeated transmission configuration of Msg3 as {1, 2, 4, 8} as an example, the indicated number of repeated transmissions of Msg3 is 2 times. It should be noted that the indication of the modulation and coding information after splitting does not limit to using only the first few rows of the corresponding MCS table, and a part of the indexes can be selected from the original 16 rows, and then an index is selected from these rows for indication. Taking the previous example as an example, if the indexes of {1, 3, 5, 7} of the table are selected, then "11" indicates the modulation and coding information indicated by the index of "5" in the table.
[0093] In some embodiments, the odd and even nature of the MCS index is used to indicate different numbers of repeated transmissions of Msg3, such as even indexes {0, 2, 4,.., 14} implicitly indicating the first number of repeated transmissions of Msg3, and odd indexes {1, 3, 5,.., 15} implicitly indicating the second number of repeated transmissions of Msg3. Considering that the number of data bits transmitted in the initial transmission of Msg3 is small, using adjacent MCSs will not cause too much impact on the transmission performance. For example, before using the present scheme, the index indicated by the original MCS is 5, but the first number of repeated transmissions of Msg3 is expected at this time, and an even index needs to be used for indication, so the base station needs to adjust the index indicated by the MCS to 4 or 6.
[0094] Figure 8 A data transmission method in a random access process according to still another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0095] As shown in Figure 8 S802, the user terminal receives a random access response from the network side, and the random access response includes uplink grant information.
[0096] S804, the user terminal extracts the MCS index of the MCS field from the uplink grant information.
[0097] S806, the user terminal determines the number of repeated transmissions of Msg3 according to the parity of the MCS index.
[0098] It should be noted that forFigure 7 and Figure 8 The embodiments shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The base station determines implicitly or explicitly whether to generate the content in the MCS field in the first way or the second way, and the user terminal receives the corresponding MCS indication and parses the data according to the corresponding way. In one embodiment, when the first predetermined condition is met, the content in the field in the uplink grant information is parsed in the first way, and the content in the field does not include the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions; when the second predetermined condition is met, the content in the field in the uplink grant information is parsed in the second way, and the content in the field includes the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions. The first predetermined condition can refer to the implicit or explicit judgment condition contained in Figure 5 or Figure 6 , and the first way can refer to parsing or processing according to the original way (i.e., according to the uplink grant information, the field does not include the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions), and the second way refers to parsing according to the way in the present disclosure that includes the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions.
[0099] In one embodiment, the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions is indicated by the channel state information (CSI) request field in the RAR UL grant information. The CSI request field contains 1 bit, and is currently reserved and not used. The field can be used for Msg3 repeated transmission configuration, such as bit "0" indicating the first number of Msg3 repeated transmissions and bit "1" indicating the second number of repeated transmissions. A specific embodiment is shown below. Figure 9
[0100] Figure 9 A data transmission method in a random access process according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0101] As shown in Figure 9 , S902, the user terminal receives a random access response from the network side, and the random access response includes uplink grant information.
[0102] S904, the user terminal extracts the value of the CSI field from the uplink grant information.
[0103] S906, the user terminal determines the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions according to the value of the CSI request field.
[0104] In some embodiments, the configuration information of the number of Msg3 repeated transmissions is indicated by the transmission power control (TPC) field in the RAR UL grant information.
[0105] The TPC field contains 3 bits for indicating the transmission power parameter of the Msg3, as shown in the following table.
[0106] TPC Command Value (in dB) 0 -6 1 -4 2 -2 3 0 4 2 5 4 6 6 7 8
[0107] Table 4
[0108] For the user whose Msg3 coverage is limited, full power transmission is generally used, and fine TPC control is not needed. Therefore, the TPC can be divided into two parts, the first part indicating the power control information, and the second part indicating the repetition number indication of the Msg3. Specifically, it can be divided into 0|3, 1|2, 2|1 three cases, wherein "0|3" means that no power control information indication is performed, full power is used by default, and 3 bits are used for the repetition number indication of the Msg3; "1|2" means that 1 bit is used to indicate the power control information, indicating a certain 2 row in the power control indication table, and 2 bits are used for the repetition number indication of the Msg3. Similarly, the above-mentioned cases can be extended.
[0109] Figure 10 A data transmission method in a random access process according to still another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0110] As Figure 10 shown, S1002, the user terminal receives a random access response from the network side, and the random access response includes uplink grant information.
[0111] S1004, the user terminal extracts the data of the TPC field from the uplink grant information.
[0112] S1006, the user terminal determines the repetition number of the Msg3 according to the predetermined bit in the TPC field.
[0113] In some embodiments, the bits of multiple fields in the uplink grant information are used to jointly indicate the repetition number of the Msg3. For example, assuming that the repetition number of the Msg3 needs to be indicated by 3 bits, the first bit is configured in the time domain resource allocation information, and the second and third bits are configured in the MCS field; or the first and second bits are configured in the time domain resource allocation information, and the third bit is configured in the MCS field. Similarly, all the above-mentioned schemes can be mixed to indicate the repetition number of the Msg3. Through the mixed indication mode, the requirement of the indication bits used by each field can be lowered, thereby being more flexible and having greater freedom.
[0114] Figure 11 A data transmission method in a random access process according to still another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.
[0115] As Figure 11As shown, in S1102, the user terminal receives a random access response from the network side, which includes uplink authorization information.
[0116] S1104, the user terminal extracts the first predetermined bit of the first field from the uplink authorization information. The first predetermined bit may include one or more bits.
[0117] S1106, the user terminal extracts the second predetermined bit of the second field from the uplink authorization information. The second predetermined bit may include one or more bits.
[0118] S1108, the user terminal determines the number of times Msg3 will be repeatedly transmitted based on the first predetermined bit and the second predetermined bit. The user terminal can determine the number of times Msg3 will be repeatedly transmitted based on the value of the combination of the first predetermined bit and the second predetermined bit.
[0119] Figure 12 A schematic diagram of the structure of a base station according to this disclosure is shown. Figure 12 As shown, the base station includes: a preamble receiving module 1201, used to receive a random access preamble sent by the UE;
[0120] The response sending module 1202 is used to send a random access response (RAR) to the UE, wherein the RAR includes uplink grant (UL) information.
