Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a method for determining beam application time, a terminal, and a network-side device. Background Art

[0002] In a multi-carrier scenario, the network can indicate a common transmission configuration indicator state (TCI state) through the Medium Access Control (MAC) control element (CE) or downlink control information (DCI).

[0038] The following describes in detail the method for determining the beam application time provided in the embodiments of the present application through some embodiments and their application scenarios in combination with the accompanying drawings.

[0039] An embodiment of the present application provides a method for determining beam application time. This method can be applied to carrier aggregation scenarios. When a network device indicates a common beam and the common beam is applied to at least one group of CCs, the terminal determines the beam application time for each CC in the at least one group of CCs or each BWP on each CC based on configuration parameters configured by the network device. This ensures that the network device and the terminal have a consistent understanding of the beam application time for each CC / BWP applying the common beam, thereby ensuring beam alignment and correct data transmission.

[0040] Figure 2 This is one of the flow charts of the method for determining the beam application time provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0041] Step 201: Receive first configuration information sent by a network-side device; wherein the first configuration information includes multiple configuration parameters, and each configuration parameter corresponds to at least one target resource object; the target resource object is determined based on at least one resource object list.

[0042] It should be noted that Figure 2 The execution subject of the method for determining the beam application time shown may be a terminal, or may be a device for determining the beam application time, or may be a control module in the device for determining the beam application time for executing the method for determining the beam application time.

[0043] Optionally, to ensure consistency between the network device and the terminal regarding the beam-effective time of each CC / BWP application common beam, the network device first obtains first configuration information; the first configuration information includes multiple configuration parameters, each of which corresponds to at least one target resource object; the target resource object is determined based on at least one resource object list; and the network device then sends the first configuration information to the terminal. The terminal receives the first configuration information sent by the network device and parses the first configuration information to obtain the multiple configuration parameters included in the first configuration information, each of which corresponds to at least one target resource object, which is determined based on the at least one resource object list.

[0044] Optionally, the target resource object is a CC or a BWP on a CC, and the resource object list is, for example, a CC list, a CC group, a CC set, etc.; when the target resource object is a CC, each of the configuration parameters corresponds to multiple CCs; when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC, each of the configuration parameters corresponds to multiple BWPs on each CC. Optionally, the network-side device configures at least one CC list, each CC list includes at least one CC, each CC includes at least one BWP, and each BWP has its own SCS.

[0045] Step 202: Based on the configuration parameters, determine the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network side device for each target resource object.

[0046] Optionally, in a multi-carrier scenario, the network device may send a first message to the terminal, where the first message indicates a common beam, where the common beam is used to determine common quasi-co-location (QCL) information and / or common uplink transmission (UL Tx) spatial filter information for each BWP on at least one group of CCs or each CC. The terminal determines, based on the configuration parameters obtained in step 201, a beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam.

[0047] Optionally, the first message may be a TCI state information, such as TCI stateID in a MAC CE or DCI command, which may be used to determine beam information of multiple channels. Optionally, the beam information may include at least one of the following: beam identification information, spatial relation information, spatial domain transmission filter information, spatial domain reception filter information, spatial filter information, TCI state information, QCL information, and QCL parameters. Among them, downlink beam information can generally be represented by TCI state information or QCL information; uplink beam information can generally be represented by TCI state information or spatial relation information.

[0048] Optionally, the dimension (unit) of the configuration parameter may be any one of the following: number of symbols, number of time slots, seconds, milliseconds.

[0049] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application does not limit the order between the execution time of the network side device sending the first configuration information to the terminal and the execution time of the network side device sending the first message to the terminal.

[0050] The method for determining the beam application time provided in the embodiments of the present application determines, in a carrier aggregation scenario, the beam application time for each CC or each BWP on each CC applying the common beam based on the configuration parameters configured by the network-side device when the network-side device indicates the common beam and the common beam is applied to at least one group of CCs. This ensures that the network-side device and the terminal have a consistent understanding of the beam application time for each CC / BWP applying the common beam, thereby ensuring beam alignment and correct data transmission.

[0051] Optionally, each configuration parameter configured by the network-side device is carried in any one of the following ways or a combination thereof:

[0052] Method 1: Carrying through the configuration information of the resource object list.

[0053] Method 2: Carried through the configuration information of at least one CC;

[0054] Mode 3: Carried through the configuration information of at least one BWP on at least one CC;

[0055] Mode 4: Carrying the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located;

[0056] Mode 5: Carrying the configuration information of the target BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0057] Each of the above methods is described below:

[0058] The description of method 1 is as follows: the network-side device carries various configuration parameters in the configuration information of the resource object list sent to the terminal. After the terminal parses the configuration information to obtain the various configuration parameters, the terminal determines the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network-side device for each target resource object based on the configuration parameters.

[0059] Optionally, based on mode 1, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include any one of the following modes:

[0060] Mode 1a, when the target resource object is a CC and each configuration parameter is carried by the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameter may be a configuration parameter corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all CCs, or a configuration parameter corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all CCs. Optionally, an uplink control channel, such as a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), is used to carry an acknowledgment (ACK), which is an ACK of a command (such as MAC CE or DCI) used by a network-side device to send the first message. Optionally, the target cell where the uplink control channel is located may be a primary cell configured with PUCCH resources, or a secondary cell configured with PUCCH resources. Optionally, the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located may be a BWP on the primary cell or a secondary cell configured with PUCCH resources. Based on this, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network side device for each target resource object" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time of the common beam for all CCs in the resource object list based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all CCs included in the configuration information of the resource object list, or the configuration parameters corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all CCs.

[0061] Alternatively, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameters may be configuration parameters corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all BWPs on all CCs, or configuration parameters corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all BWPs on all CCs. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include determining the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all BWPs on all CCs included in the configuration information of the resource object list, or configuration parameters corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for all BWPs on all CCs.

[0062] Mode 1b: When the target resource object is a CC and each configuration parameter is carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameter may be a configuration parameter of a second reference CC corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, or a configuration parameter of a second reference CC corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located. Based on this, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameter of the second reference CC corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, or the configuration parameter of the second reference CC corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, included in the configuration information of the resource object list. Optionally, the second reference CC may be a CC in the CC list.

[0063] For example, assuming that a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, each CC includes one or more BWPs; the cells where the uplink control channel is located are cell1 and cell2, cell1 includes BWP5-BWP8, and cell2 includes BWP9-BWP11; assuming that the second reference CC is CC2 and the target cell is cell1; the configuration parameter of CC2 corresponding to cell1 where the uplink control channel is located is T21; the configuration parameter of CC2 corresponding to BWP5 on cell1 where the uplink control channel is located is T215; and the configuration parameter of CC2 corresponding to BWP6 on cell1 where the uplink control channel is located is T216. During configuration, the network-side device only configures CC2's configuration parameter T21 corresponding to cell 1 where the uplink control channel is located, or CC2's configuration parameter T215 corresponding to BWP5 on cell 1 where the uplink control channel is located, and carries the configuration parameters in the configuration information of the resource object list. The terminal then determines the beam application time for all CCs (i.e., CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4) applying the common beam based solely on CC2's configuration parameter T21 corresponding to cell 1 where the uplink control channel is located, or CC2's configuration parameter T215 corresponding to BWP5 on cell 1 where the uplink control channel is located. Optionally, the second reference CC can be selected by network-side device specification, protocol specification, the CC corresponding to the maximum value among all configuration parameters, or by rotating CCs.

[0064] Alternatively, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameters may be configuration parameters of a second reference BWP on a second reference CC corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, or configuration parameters of a second reference BWP on a second reference CC corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network device" in step 202 may include determining the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters of the second reference BWP on the second reference CC corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, or configuration parameters of the second reference BWP on the second reference CC corresponding to the BWP on the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, included in the configuration information of the resource object list. The second reference BWP on the second reference CC may be selected by network device specification, protocol specification, CC / BWP corresponding to the maximum value among all configuration parameters, or CC / BWP rotation.

[0065] Mode 1c: When the target resource object is a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameters may be configuration parameters for all CCs. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on the configuration parameters of all CCs included in the configuration information of the resource object list, the beam application time for all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam.

[0066] Alternatively, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameters may be configuration parameters for all BWPs on all CCs. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on the configuration parameters of all BWPs on all CCs included in the configuration information of the resource object list, the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam.

[0067] Mode 1d: When the target resource object is a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameters may be configuration parameters of a third reference CC. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on the configuration parameters of the third reference CC included in the configuration information of the resource object list, the beam application time for all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam. For example, assuming that a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, each CC includes one or more BWPs, and the network-side device, during configuration, configures configuration parameters only for CC3 (assuming CC3 is a preset third reference CC) and carries these parameters in the configuration information of the resource object list; then, the terminal determines the beam application time for all CCs (i.e., CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4) to apply the common beam based only on the configuration parameters corresponding to CC3 carried in the configuration information of the resource object list. Optionally, the third reference CC may be selected by network-side device designation, protocol designation, a CC corresponding to a maximum value among all configuration parameters, or by rotating CCs.

[0068] Alternatively, if the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of the resource object list, the configuration parameters may be configuration parameters of a third reference BWP on a third reference CC. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on the configuration parameters of the third reference BWP on the third reference CC included in the configuration information of the resource object list, the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam. For example, assume a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, each of which includes one or more BWPs. During configuration, the network-side device configures configuration parameters only for BWP3 on CC3 (assuming CC3 is the preset third reference CC and BWP3 is the preset third reference BWP) and carries these configuration parameters in the configuration information of the resource object list. Then, based solely on the configuration parameters corresponding to BWP3 on CC3, the terminal determines the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs to apply the common beam. Optionally, the third reference BWP on the third reference CC may be selected by network-side device specification, protocol specification, CC / BWP corresponding to the maximum value of all configuration parameters, or CC / BWP rotation.

[0069] Method 2: Carried through the configuration information of at least one CC;

[0070] Optionally, the description for method 2 is as follows: the network side device carries various configuration parameters in the configuration information of each CC sent to the terminal. After the terminal parses the configuration information to obtain the various configuration parameters, the terminal determines the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network side device for each target resource object based on the configuration parameters.

[0071] Based on mode 2, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include any of the following modes:

[0072] In mode 2a, when the target resource object is a CC and each configuration parameter is carried in the configuration information of at least one CC, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for the CC to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of each CC. In other words, the configuration parameters of each CC are carried in the configuration information of that CC.

[0073] In mode 2b, when the target resource object is a CC and each configuration parameter is carried in the configuration information of at least one CC, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for the CC to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located for each CC carried in the configuration information of each CC. In other words, the configuration information of each CC carries the configuration parameters of the CC, and the configuration parameters correspond to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0074] In mode 2c, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and each configuration parameter is carried in the configuration information of at least one CC, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on multiple configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of each CC, the beam application time for each BWP on the CC to apply the common beam. That is, among the multiple configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of each CC, each configuration parameter is for a BWP on that CC.

[0075] In mode 2d, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried in the configuration information of at least one CC, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on multiple configuration parameters for each BWP on each CC carried in the configuration information of each CC, corresponding to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the beam application time for each BWP on the CC to apply the common beam. In other words, the configuration information of each CC carries multiple configuration parameters for the CC, at least one of which is for a BWP on the CC, and at least one configuration parameter of the BWP corresponds to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0076] Mode 3: Carried through configuration information of at least one BWP on at least one CC.

[0077] Optionally, the description of method 3 is as follows: the network side device carries various configuration parameters in the configuration information of each BWP on each CC sent to the terminal. After the terminal parses the configuration information to obtain the various configuration parameters, the terminal determines the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network side device for each target resource object based on the configuration parameters.

[0078] Based on mode 3, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include any of the following modes:

[0079] Mode 3a: When the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and each configuration parameter is carried in the configuration information of at least one BWP on at least one CC, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of each BWP on each CC, the beam application time for each BWP on the CC to apply the common beam. In other words, the configuration parameters of each BWP on each CC are carried in the configuration information of the BWP.

[0080] Mode 3b: When the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and each configuration parameter is carried in the configuration information of at least one BWP on at least one CC, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for each BWP on the CC to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters of each BWP carried in the configuration information of each BWP on each CC, corresponding to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located. In other words, the configuration information of each BWP on each CC carries the configuration parameters of the BWP, and the configuration parameters correspond to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0081] Optionally, in the case of multiple configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of the CC, each configuration parameter can be respectively set with an index corresponding to the target cell where each uplink control channel is located, or the BWP on the target cell where each uplink control channel is located, so as to establish a correspondence between the configuration parameter and the target cell or the BWP on the target cell; or, each configuration parameter corresponds to the target cell where each uplink control channel is located, or the BWP on the target cell where each uplink control channel is located in a preset arrangement order. For example, the order of the target cells or the BWP on the target cell is pre-set to the order of the cell index or BWPID from small to large, and the configuration parameters corresponding to the target cell or the BWP on the target cell are set in this order, thereby saving signaling overhead.

[0083] Optionally, the description for method 4 is as follows: the network-side device carries various configuration parameters in the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, which is sent to the terminal. After the terminal parses the configuration information to obtain the various configuration parameters, the terminal determines, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network-side device for each target resource object. After the network-side device sends a first message indicating the common beam to the terminal, the terminal sends an acknowledgment (ACK) message in response to the first message to the network-side device, and the uplink control channel is used to carry the ACK message.

[0084] Optionally, the implementation of “determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device” in step 202 may include any one of the following methods:

[0085] Mode 4a, the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located only carries the configuration parameters corresponding to the first reference CC; at this time, when the target resource object is a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "based on the configuration parameters, determining the beam application time of each target resource object applying the common beam indicated by the network side device" in step 202 may include: based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the first reference CC included in the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, determining the beam application time of all CCs in the resource object list applying the common beam. Among them, the first reference CC is the CC list

[0086] For example, suppose a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, and each CC is

[0087] Including one or more BWPs, when the network side device is configured, only CC1 (assuming CC1 is the first

[0088] Reference CC) is configured with configuration parameters and carries the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0089] The terminal then determines the beam application time for all CCs (i.e., CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4) using the common beam based solely on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information for CC1. Optionally, the first reference CC can be selected by network-side device specification, protocol specification, the CC corresponding to the maximum value among all configuration parameters, or by rotating CCs.

[0090] Mode 4b, the configuration parameters corresponding to all CCs are carried by the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located; at this time, when the target resource object is a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network side device for each target resource object" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time of the common beam for all CCs in the resource object list based on the configuration parameters corresponding to all CCs included in the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0091] Mode 4c: The configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located only carries the configuration parameters of the first reference CC corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located; in this case, when the target resource object is a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters of the first reference CC corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, included in the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0092] Mode 4d: The configuration parameters of all CCs corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located are carried by the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located; at this time, when the target resource object is a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time of each target resource object applying the common beam indicated by the network side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time of all CCs in the resource object list applying the common beam based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the target cell where the uplink control channel is located of all CCs included in the configuration information of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0093] Mode 5: Carrying the configuration information of the target BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0094] Optionally, the description of method 5 is as follows: the network side device carries various configuration parameters in the configuration information of the target BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, which is sent to the terminal. After the terminal parses the configuration information to obtain the various configuration parameters, the terminal determines the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network side device for each target resource object based on the configuration parameters.

[0095] Based on method 5, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include any of the following methods:

[0096] Mode 5a: The configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located only carries the configuration parameters corresponding to the first reference BWP on the first reference CC; at this time, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the first reference BWP on the first reference CC included in the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located. For example, assuming a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, each of which includes one or more BWPs. During configuration, the network device configures configuration parameters only for BWP1 on CC1 (assuming CC1 is the first reference CC and BWP1 is the first reference BWP on CC1), and carries these parameters in the BWP configuration information for the target cell where the uplink control channel is located. The terminal then determines the beam application time for each BWP on all CCs (i.e., CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4) to apply a common beam based solely on the configuration parameters corresponding to BWP1 on CC1. Optionally, the first reference BWP on the first reference CC can be selected by network device specification, protocol specification, the CC / BWP corresponding to the maximum value of all configuration parameters, or by rotating between CCs / BWPs.

[0097] Mode 5b: The configuration parameters corresponding to all BWPs on all CCs are carried by the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located; at this time, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters corresponding to all BWPs on all CCs included in the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0098] Mode 5c: The configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located only carries the configuration parameters of the first reference BWP on the first reference CC, corresponding to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located. In this case, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam, based on the configuration parameters of the first reference BWP on the first reference CC, corresponding to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, included in the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0099] Mode 5d: The configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located carries the configuration parameters of all BWPs on all CCs corresponding to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located; at this time, when the target resource object is a BWP on a CC and the configuration parameters are carried by the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: determining the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs in the resource object list to apply the common beam based on the configuration parameters of all BWPs on all CCs included in the configuration information of the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located, corresponding to the BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.

[0100] Optionally, during configuration, the network device configures configuration parameters for each CC in a group of CCs or each BWP on each CC, and carries the corresponding configuration parameters in the configuration information of each CC or each BWP on each CC. However, the terminal determines the beam application time for all CCs or all BWPs on all CCs to apply the common beam based only on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of the first target CC in each CC or the first target BWP on the first target CC. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network device" in step 202 may include: obtaining the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of the first target CC in each CC, and determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each CC to apply the common beam; or obtaining the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of the first target BWP on the first target CC in each CC, and determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for all BWPs on each CC to apply the common beam. For example, assuming a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, each of which includes one or more BWPs. During configuration, the network device configures configuration parameters for CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, or for each BWP on each CC, and carries these parameters in the configuration information of each CC or each BWP on each CC. However, the terminal determines the beam application time for all CCs (i.e., CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4), or all BWPs on all CCs, based solely on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of CC1 (assuming CC1 is the preset first target CC) or BWP1 on CC1 (assuming BWP1 is the first target BWP). Optionally, the preset first target CC or the first target BWP on the first target CC may be selected by network device specification, protocol specification, the CC / BWP corresponding to the maximum value among all configuration parameters, or a rotation of CCs / BWPs.

[0101] Optionally, during configuration, the network device may not configure configuration parameters for each CC in a group of CCs or each BWP on each CC, but may instead configure configuration parameters only for a fourth reference CC in each CC or a fourth reference BWP on a fourth reference CC. The terminal then determines, based solely on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of the fourth reference CC or a fourth reference BWP on a fourth reference CC, the beam application time for all CCs or all BWPs on all CCs to apply the common beam. Based on this, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network device" in step 202 may include: determining, based on the configuration parameters corresponding to the fourth reference CC, the beam application time for all CCs to apply the common beam; or determining, based on the configuration parameters of the fourth reference BWP on the fourth reference CC, the beam application time for all BWPs on all CCs to apply the common beam. For example, assuming a group of CCs includes CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4, each of which includes one or more BWPs. During configuration, the network device configures configuration parameters only for CC4 (assuming CC4 is a preset fourth reference CC) or BWP4 on CC4 (assuming BWP4 is a fourth reference BWP), and carries these configuration parameters in the configuration information of CC4 or BWP4 on CC4. Then, based solely on the configuration parameters carried in the configuration information of CC4 or BWP4 on CC4, the terminal determines the beam application time for applying a common beam to all CCs (i.e., CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4) or all BWPs on all CCs. Optionally, the fourth reference CC or the fourth reference BWP on the fourth reference CC may be selected by network device specification, protocol specification, the CC / BWP corresponding to the maximum value of all configuration parameters, or a rotation of CCs / BWPs.

[0102] Optionally, when each CC belongs to a single band, the implementation of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam indicated by the network-side device" in step 202 may include: selecting at least one target configuration parameter from all configuration parameters as the configuration parameter corresponding to each CC or each BWP on each CC; for example, the target configuration parameter may be the maximum value among all configuration parameters. Based on the configuration parameters corresponding to each CC or each BWP on each CC, the beam application time for each CC or each BWP on each CC to apply the common beam is determined. For example, the maximum value among the configuration parameters corresponding to CC1, CC2, CC3, and CC4 (or each BWP on each CC) is uniformly used as the configuration parameter corresponding to each CC (or each BWP on each CC).

[0103] Optionally, the implementation method of "determining, based on the configuration parameters, the beam application time of the common beam indicated by the network-side device for each target resource object" in step 202 may include: rounding the configuration parameters in units of time slots to obtain the beam application time of the common beam for each target resource object.

[0104] The implementation of this step is described as follows:

[0105] Optionally, when the unit of the configuration parameter is the number of symbols, the first time slot after Y symbols after the first time can be determined as the beam application time for applying the common beam to each of the target resource objects; wherein the configuration parameter is Y, the first time is the time for sending an ACK message in response to a first message, and the first message is a message sent by the network-side device to indicate the use of the common beam. Alternatively, when the unit of the configuration parameter is the number of symbols, the time slot in which the Yth symbol after the first time is located can be determined as the beam application time for applying the common beam to each of the target resource objects. Alternatively, when the unit of the configuration parameter is the number of symbols, the remainder of dividing Y by the target value can be first calculated, the remainder can be rounded up or down, and a result M can be calculated to obtain the result, and the time slot in which the Mth symbol after the first time is located can be determined as the beam application time for applying the common beam to each of the target resource objects.

[0106] Optionally, when the unit of the configuration parameter is the number of time slots, the first time slot after the Yth time slot after the first time, or the Yth time slot after the first time, is determined as the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam.

[0107] Optionally, when the unit of the configuration parameter is seconds or milliseconds, the first time slot after the Yth unit after the first time, or the time slot in which the Yth unit after the first time is located, is determined as the beam application time for each target resource object to apply the common beam.

[0118] It is carried through the configuration information of the target BWP of the target cell where the uplink control channel is located.
