For example, A and / or B can represent three cases: A alone, A and B simultaneously, and B alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following associated objects have an "or" relationship.

[0097] In the embodiments of this application, the term "multiple" refers to two or more, and other quantifiers are similar.

[0098] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0099] This application provides an activation method and apparatus to trigger the autonomous activation of target configuration authorization by utilizing the characteristics of service data, thereby avoiding resource waste caused by sending DCI multiple times and saving PDCCH overhead.

[0100] The method and apparatus are based on the same concept of the application. Since the methods and apparatus solve problems in similar ways, the implementation of the apparatus and methods can refer to each other, and the repeated parts will not be described again.

[0101] The technical solutions provided in this application can be applied to various communication systems, especially 5G systems. For example, applicable systems include Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE Frequency Division Duplex (FDD), LTE Time Division Duplex (TDD), Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A), Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), and 5G New Radio (NR). All of these systems include terminal equipment and network equipment. The systems may also include a core network component, such as Evolved Packet System (EPS) and 5G systems (5GS).

[0102] First, let's introduce the following:

[0103] (1) Extended Reality (XR);

[0104] Extended Reality (XR) and Cloud Gaming (CG) can experience burst throughput far exceeding average throughput over short periods. For example, an XR service with an average throughput of 100 Mbps can experience burst throughput of 300 Mbps within a short measurement window, while simultaneously maintaining high reliability.

[0105] XR is a general term for different types of reality, referring to all environments and human-computer interactions that combine the real and virtual worlds, generated by computer technology and devices. It includes representative forms such as Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR), and Virtual Reality (VR).

[0106] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the data packet provided in an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 1 As shown, XR services are modeled in the communication system using frame-level data packets. Each data packet corresponds to an XR video frame, and the same video frame can be divided into multiple IP packets.

[0107] XR contains various data frames, each with its own transmission characteristics and requirements. For example, an I-frame (Intra-coded picture) is intra-frame coded and can represent the complete picture, while a P-frame (Predicted picture) is inter-frame coded and only needs to carry information different from the previous frame. Therefore, I-frames have a large data volume and high reliability requirements, while P-frames have a small data volume and relatively lower reliability requirements compared to I-frames.

[0108] In XR services, service characteristics requirements are for data frames. For example, for scene and video mixed streams, the service characteristics requirements are: 60fps (frames per second); data rate of 10Mbps or 20Mbps; PDB (packet delay budget) of 30ms, or 10ms, 15ms or 60ms (optional).

[0109] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the mapping of service data packets to IP packets provided in the embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, XR service data packets are mapped to multiple communication system air interface IP packets. An XR frame can be divided into multiple IP packets, and each IP packet is transmitted independently on the air interface. Specifically, an IP packet is mapped to the air interface and corresponds to a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) Service Data Unit (SDU).

[0110] (2) Configure authorization;

[0111] Unlike dynamic scheduling, which allocates radio resources to a user equipment (UE) once per time slot or transmission time interval (TTI) (specified via PDCCH), configuration authorization allows for semi-static configuration of radio resources and periodically allocates those resources to a specific UE.

[0112] Simply put, the network-side device notifies the UE that it can periodically use a certain resource. Optionally, the location of the periodic resource can be notified through Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling.

[0113] Optionally, the network can also notify the UE of the frequency domain location, start and end times, and modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of the resources used. In this way, the network reduces PDCCH notification overhead through periodic resource allocation.

[0114] Configure authorized scheduling methods, which are suitable for periodic services, such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) or periodic control signaling in certain Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) services.

[0115] Configuration authorization is an uplink scheduling method. There are two types: type 1 and type 2.

[0116] In Type 1: RRC allocates periodic resources, and the resources are activated after RRC configuration, meaning that the UE can use the resources to send uplink data after receiving the RRC configuration message;

[0117] In Type 2, RRC allocates periodic resources, but the initial state is inactive. The network side needs to activate the resource via physical layer signaling, and deactivate the resource via DCI after data transmission is completed. Similarly, physical layer signaling can also be used to modify some configuration authorization information, such as modifying the time-frequency domain location information of the resource.

[0118] (3) Semi-persistent Scheduling (SPS);

[0119] Similar to Configured Grant (CG) type 2, it also allocates periodic resources via RRC, but the initial state is inactive. The network side needs to activate the resource via physical layer signaling, and deactivate the resource via DCI after data transmission is completed. Likewise, some configuration information of the configured grant can be modified via physical layer signaling, such as modifying the time-frequency domain location information of the resource.

[0120] In XR technology, the following modeling methods exist:

[0121] Method 1: Two-stream modeling (the baseline for evaluation), which includes: one stream is attitude and control information, and the other stream is a mixed stream of scene, video, data and voice.

[0122] It is evident that the following defects exist:

[0123] 1) Scenario where uplink (UL) transmission triggers downlink (DL) service transmission: For example, UL transmits attitude and control information, and DL periodically transmits corresponding video, scene, and voice information based on the attitude and control information of UL.

[0124] However, the current practice involves the network side sending DCI to activate SPS configuration information. Each UL transmission requires a corresponding DCI to trigger the activation of SPS configuration information for DL ​​service transmission, resulting in significant DCI overhead.

[0125] 2) Another scenario: DL and UL need to interact, such as when DL services arrive and surveillance videos are uploaded.

[0126] The current practice is to activate the SPS or CG configuration for UL data transmission via DCI or RRC configuration after the DL service arrives. During the interaction, multiple arrivals of DL services require multiple DCI transmissions to activate SPS / CG for UL transmission. Furthermore, a single DCI can only trigger one set of configuration authorization / SPS configurations (i.e., currently, DCI cannot activate multiple configuration authorizations simultaneously), and the network side needs to send a separate DCI command to activate the corresponding configuration authorization or SPS, resulting in additional PDCCH overhead.

[0127] To address the high overhead of DCI / PDCCH, this application proposes a method for triggering the activation of target configuration authorization (such as SPS or CG) using service data (target data). The terminal can autonomously activate the target configuration authorization based on the characteristics of the service data, thus avoiding the resource waste caused by sending DCI multiple times.

[0128] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the activation method provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 3As shown, this application provides an activation method, the execution subject of which can be a terminal, such as a mobile phone. The method includes:

[0129] Step 301: Execute the transmission of target data;

[0130] Specifically, in the embodiments of this application, the terminal first determines to perform the transmission of target data, such as triggering, sending or receiving the target data. The target data can be carried by higher-layer signaling, such as RRC messages, or it can be periodic data.

[0131] Specifically, the target data is used to trigger at least one autonomous activation of the terminal's authorization of the target configuration.

[0132] Step 302: Activate the target configuration authorization based on the first information;

[0133] The first information includes a first feature of the target data.

[0134] Specifically, to avoid the need for network-side devices to send DCI commands separately to activate the corresponding configuration authorization or SPS, embodiments of this application can first perform target data transmission through the terminal, so that the terminal can determine the target configuration authorization based on the first information including the first feature in the target data transmission, and complete the autonomous activation of the target configuration authorization, avoiding the need for DCI commands for each activation of the configuration authorization, which can greatly reduce the overhead of PDCCH.

[0135] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the target data is uplink data, the target configuration authorization is a downlink semi-static scheduling service authorization;

[0136] When the target data is downlink data, the target configuration authorization is uplink configuration authorization.

[0137] Alternatively, in one implementation, the target configuration authorization is a periodic configuration authorization, such as SPS.

[0138] Optionally, the target configuration authorization may be semi-static scheduling information of DL;

[0139] Optionally, the target configuration authorization may be UL's configuration authorization information.

[0140] Optionally, after the target data is transmitted, the characteristics present in the first information can be determined as the first characteristic based on the characteristics in the target data transmission, and the target configuration authorization can be determined based on the first characteristic, and finally the activation of the target configuration authorization can be completed.

[0141] The activation method provided in this application first performs the transmission of target data. Based on the first feature of the target data transmission, it determines the target configuration authorization to be autonomously activated. By utilizing the characteristics of business data to trigger the autonomous activation of the target configuration authorization, it avoids the waste of resources caused by sending DCI multiple times and saves the overhead of PDCCH.

[0142] Optionally, the first feature includes at least one of the following:

[0143] The logical channel information corresponding to the target data; or

[0144] Data Radio Bearer (DRB) information used to carry the target data; or

[0145] The periodic information of the target data; or

[0146] The QoS stream information of the target data; or

[0147] The target data triggers the reporting of a Buffer Status Report (BSR); or

[0148] The target data uses configuration authorization information; or

[0149] The target data uses the configuration authorization index number information.

[0150] Optionally, some data features can be determined or pre-configured based on network-side indications or protocol pre-definition, such as one or more of the following: preset logical channel information, preset DRB information, preset periodic information, preset QoS flow information, preset BSR reporting information, preset configuration authorization information, and preset configuration authorization index number information. These features are stored in the first information. Each of these features can correspond to a different target configuration authorization, and this correspondence is also stored in the first information. After the target data is transmitted, the feature that conforms to the preset data features can be determined as the first feature based on the features in the target data transmission. The target configuration authorization can be determined based on the first feature, and finally, the activation of the target configuration authorization is completed.

[0151] The activation method provided in this application first performs the transmission of target data. Based on the first feature of the target data transmission, it determines the target configuration authorization to be autonomously triggered. By utilizing the characteristics of service data, such as periodic information, QoS flow information, BSR, DRB, and one or more of logical channel information, the autonomous activation of the target configuration authorization can be directly triggered without further signaling, avoiding the resource waste caused by multiple DCI transmissions and saving PDCCH overhead.

[0152] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first information further includes first configuration information, which is configured by the network-side device or predefined by the protocol;

[0153] The first configuration information includes any one or more of the following:

[0154] At least one first correspondence, wherein the at least one first correspondence is used to characterize at least one second feature and the configuration authorization corresponding to each second feature; or

[0155] At least one second correspondence, wherein the at least one second correspondence is used to characterize at least one second feature and the index number of the configuration authorization corresponding to each second feature;

[0156] The first feature is one of the at least one second feature.

[0157] Optionally, the terminal may obtain first configuration information before performing self-activation. After obtaining the first configuration information, it may perform one or more transmissions of target data based on the first configuration information, thereby triggering one or more self-activations of target configuration authorization.

[0158] Optionally, the first configuration information may include at least one first correspondence, wherein the at least one first correspondence is used to represent at least one second feature and the configuration authorization corresponding to each second feature, and each first correspondence is used to represent a second feature and the configuration authorization corresponding to that second feature;

[0159] For example, the second feature includes one or more of the following: preset logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, preset periodic information c, preset QoS flow information d, preset BSR reporting information e, preset configuration authorization information f, and preset configuration authorization index number information g. The first correspondence includes: logical channel information a corresponds to the first configuration authorization, preset DRB information corresponds to the second configuration authorization, preset periodic information c corresponds to the third configuration authorization, preset QoS flow information d corresponds to the fourth configuration authorization, preset BSR reporting information e corresponds to the fifth configuration authorization, preset configuration authorization information f corresponds to the sixth configuration authorization, preset configuration authorization index number information g corresponds to the seventh configuration authorization, and so on.

[0160] Optionally, the first configuration information may include at least one second correspondence, wherein the at least one second correspondence is used to represent at least one second feature and the index number of the configuration authorization corresponding to each second feature, and each first correspondence is used to represent a second feature and the index number of the configuration authorization corresponding to that second feature;

[0161] For example, the second feature includes one or more of the following: preset logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, preset periodic information c, preset QoS flow information d, preset BSR reporting information e, preset configuration authorization information f, and preset configuration authorization index number information g. The second correspondence includes: logical channel information a corresponds to the index number of the first configuration authorization, preset DRB information corresponds to the index number of the second configuration authorization, preset periodic information c corresponds to the index number of the third configuration authorization, preset QoS flow information d corresponds to the index number of the fourth configuration authorization, preset BSR reporting information e corresponds to the index number of the fifth configuration authorization, preset configuration authorization information f corresponds to the index number of the sixth configuration authorization, preset configuration authorization index number information g corresponds to the index number of the seventh configuration authorization, and so on.

[0162] Optionally, the first configuration information may include a first correspondence and a second correspondence, wherein there may be a priority between the first correspondence and the second correspondence;

[0163] Optionally, multiple sets of first correspondences may exist. Each set of first correspondences includes at least one first correspondence, which is used to represent at least one second feature and the configuration authorization corresponding to each second feature. Each first correspondence is used to represent a second feature and the configuration authorization corresponding to that second feature. The first correspondences of different sets may include the same, not completely the same, or completely different second features. The first correspondences of different sets may not be completely the same or completely different. There may be a priority between the first correspondences of different sets, and they may be activated or used sequentially based on the priority. The first correspondences of different sets may have different indexes or unique identifiers, and they may be activated or used based on the index or unique identifier.

[0164] Optionally, multiple sets of second correspondences may exist. Each set of second correspondences includes at least one second correspondence, which represents at least one second feature and the configuration authorization index number corresponding to each second feature. Each second correspondence represents a second feature and the configuration authorization index number corresponding to that second feature. Second correspondences in different sets may include the same, not entirely the same, or completely different second features. Second correspondences in different sets may not be entirely the same or completely different. There may be a priority between second correspondences in different sets, and they may be activated or used sequentially based on the priority. Second correspondences in different sets may have different indexes or unique identifiers, and they may be activated or used based on the index or unique identifier.

[0165] Alternatively, different second features can correspond to the same configuration authorization, such as multiple logical channels, DRBs, QoS flows, or configuration authorizations that can correspond to the same SPS configuration.

[0166] This application embodiment pre-stores a first correspondence and / or a second correspondence in the first information, and after each target data transmission, it can determine the first feature existing in the first correspondence and / or the second correspondence, and then determine the target configuration authorization corresponding to the first feature based on the first correspondence and / or the second correspondence in the first information, triggering the activation of the target configuration authorization; it can realize multiple autonomous activations of configuration authorization after one configuration information, meet the configuration authorization requirements of periodic data, and greatly reduce PDCCH overhead.

[0168] Based on the first characteristic and the first correspondence, the configuration authorization corresponding to the first characteristic is determined as the target configuration authorization.

[0169] Optionally, the first configuration information can be determined or pre-configured based on network side instructions or protocol pre-definition and stored in the first information. After the target data is transmitted, the first feature can be determined based on the characteristics in the target data transmission, which is the same as the second feature. The target configuration authorization can be determined based on the first feature and the first correspondence, and finally the activation of the target configuration authorization is completed.

[0170] Optionally, after the terminal performs the transmission of target data, it can determine one or more features as one of the second features based on the characteristics of the target data transmission. Then, the aforementioned one or more features can be determined as the first feature, and the configuration authorization corresponding to the aforementioned one or more features can be determined as the target configuration authorization based on the first correspondence.

[0171] For example, the second feature includes one or more of the following: preset logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, preset periodic information c, preset QoS flow information d, preset BSR reporting information e, preset configuration authorization information f, and preset configuration authorization index number information g. The first correspondence includes: logical channel information a corresponds to the first configuration authorization; preset DRB information corresponds to the second configuration authorization; preset periodic information c corresponds to the third configuration authorization; preset QoS flow information d corresponds to the fourth configuration authorization; preset BSR reporting information e corresponds to the fifth configuration authorization; preset configuration authorization information f corresponds to the sixth configuration authorization; preset configuration authorization index number information g corresponds to the seventh configuration authorization, and so on. If, after transmitting the target data, it is determined that the feature during target data transmission includes logical channel information a, meaning the target data is transmitted on logical channel a, then the first feature can be determined to be logical channel information a, and consequently, the target configuration authorization can be determined to be the first configuration authorization corresponding to logical channel information a; that is, the activation of the first configuration authorization is triggered.

[0172] For example, the second feature includes one or more of the following: preset logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, and preset periodic information c. The first correspondence includes: the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b corresponds to the first configuration authorization; the combination of preset DRB information b and preset periodic information c corresponds to the configuration authorization; the combination of logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, and preset periodic information c corresponds to the third configuration authorization; the presence of preset periodic information c alone corresponds to the fourth configuration authorization; the presence of logical channel information a alone corresponds to the fifth configuration authorization; the presence of preset DRB information b alone corresponds to the sixth configuration authorization, and so on.

[0173] If, after transmitting the target data, it is determined that the characteristics of the target data transmission only include the logical channel information a in the second characteristic, that is, the target data is transmitted on logical channel a, then the first characteristic can be determined to be logical channel information a, and further, the target configuration authorization can be determined to be the fifth configuration authorization corresponding to the logical channel information a alone; that is, the activation of the fifth configuration authorization is triggered.

[0174] If, after transmitting the target data, it is determined that the characteristics of the target data transmission include the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b in the second characteristic, that is, the target data is transmitted on logical channel a and carried by preset DRB information b, then the first characteristic can be determined to be the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b. In turn, the target configuration authorization can be determined to be the first configuration authorization corresponding to the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b; that is, the activation of the first configuration authorization is triggered.

[0175] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the first configuration information includes the second correspondence, activating the target configuration authorization based on the first information includes:

[0176] Based on the first characteristic and the second correspondence, the configuration authorization indicated by the index number of the configuration authorization corresponding to the first characteristic is determined to be the target configuration authorization.

[0177] Optionally, the first configuration information can be determined or pre-configured based on network side instructions or protocol pre-definition and stored in the first information. After the target data is transmitted, the first feature can be determined based on the characteristics in the target data transmission, which is the same as the second feature. The target configuration authorization can be determined based on the correspondence between the first feature and the second feature, and finally the activation of the target configuration authorization is completed.

[0178] Optionally, after the terminal performs the transmission of target data, it can determine one or more features as one of the second features based on the characteristics of the target data transmission. Then, the aforementioned one or more features can be determined as the first feature. Furthermore, it can determine the index number of the configuration authorization corresponding to the aforementioned one or more features based on the first correspondence relationship, and determine the indicated configuration authorization as the target configuration authorization based on the index number.

[0179] For example, the second feature includes one or more of the following: preset logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, preset periodic information c, preset QoS flow information d, preset BSR reporting information e, preset configuration authorization information f, and preset configuration authorization index number information g. The second correspondence includes: logical channel information a corresponds to the index number of the first configuration authorization; preset DRB information corresponds to the index number of the second configuration authorization; preset periodic information c corresponds to the index number of the third configuration authorization; preset QoS flow information d corresponds to the index number of the fourth configuration authorization; preset BSR reporting information e corresponds to the index number of the fifth configuration authorization; preset configuration authorization information f corresponds to the index number of the sixth configuration authorization; preset configuration authorization index number information g corresponds to the index number of the seventh configuration authorization, and so on. If, after transmitting the target data, it is determined that the feature during target data transmission includes logical channel information a, meaning the target data is transmitted on logical channel a, then the first feature can be determined to be logical channel information a. Furthermore, the first configuration authorization indicated by the index number of the first configuration authorization corresponding to logical channel information a can be determined to be the target configuration authorization; that is, the activation of the first configuration authorization is triggered.

[0180] For example, the second feature includes one or more of the following: preset logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, and preset periodic information c. The first correspondence includes: the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b corresponds to the index number of the first configuration authorization; the combination of preset DRB information b and preset periodic information c corresponds to the index number of the configuration authorization; the combination of logical channel information a, preset DRB information b, and preset periodic information c corresponds to the index number of the third configuration authorization; when preset periodic information c exists alone, it corresponds to the index number of the fourth configuration authorization; when logical channel information a exists alone, it corresponds to the index number of the fifth configuration authorization; when preset DRB information b exists alone, it corresponds to the index number of the sixth configuration authorization, and so on.

[0181] If, after transmitting the target data, it is determined that the characteristics of the target data transmission only include the logical channel information a in the second characteristic, that is, the target data is transmitted on logical channel a, then the first characteristic can be determined to be logical channel information a. Furthermore, it can be determined that the fifth configuration authorization indicated by the index number of the fifth configuration authorization corresponding to the logical channel information a is the target configuration authorization; that is, the activation of the fifth configuration authorization is triggered.

[0182] If, after transmitting the target data, it is determined that the characteristics of the target data transmission include the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b in the second characteristic, that is, the target data is transmitted on logical channel a and carried by preset DRB information b, then the first characteristic can be determined to be the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b. Furthermore, it can be determined that the first configuration authorization indicated by the index number of the first configuration authorization corresponding to the combination of logical channel information a and preset DRB information b is the target configuration authorization; that is, the activation of the first configuration authorization is triggered.

[0183] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first configuration information may further include configuration information for the target configuration authorization.

[0184] Optionally, the first configuration information may also include the configuration information of the target configuration authorization, and the terminal may determine the configuration information of the target configuration authorization based on the first configuration information;

[0185] Taking the target configuration authorization as DL SPS as an example, the configuration information of the target configuration authorization is DL SPS configuration information; the DL SPS configuration information may include the SPS period, time-frequency domain resource location, MCS information, etc.

[0186] Optionally, in some embodiments, activating the target configuration authorization based on the first information includes:

[0187] If it is determined that the target data is transmitted based on the first feature, the target configuration authorization is activated based on the configuration information of the target configuration authorization.

[0188] Optionally, if it is determined that the target data is transmitted based on the first feature, that is, if it is determined that the previously transmitted target data in the transmission conforms to one of the second features, the target configuration authorization corresponding to the first feature can be determined, the activation of the target configuration authorization can be triggered, and the configuration information of the target configuration authorization can be obtained from the first configuration information to complete the activation of the target configuration authorization.

[0189] Taking the terminal activating DL SPS based on at least one of the following: logical channel, DRB information, and QoS flow of the target data:

[0190] Step 1: The network side configures the first configuration information to the terminal via RRC signaling and / or other higher-layer signaling. The first configuration information includes at least one DL SPS configuration corresponding to at least one of the first logical channel, first DRB information, and first QoS flow, as well as the configuration information of the corresponding at least one DL SPS;

[0191] For example, the first logical channel a corresponds to DL SPS configuration 1, the first logical channel b corresponds to DL SPS configuration 2, the first DRB information c corresponds to DL SPS configuration 2, the first DRB information d corresponds to DL SPS configuration 1, the first QoS flow information e corresponds to DL SPS configuration 3, and the first QoS flow information f corresponds to DL SPS configuration 1; the first logical channel is the logical channel corresponding to the first UL data (target data); the first DRB is the data bearer corresponding to the first UL data, and the QoS flow refers to the QoS flow corresponding to the first UL data;

[0192] For example, a specific signaling correspondence could be:

[0193] First logical channel a: Configure authorized DL SPS configuration 1;

[0194] Step 2: The terminal sends the first UL data; the first UL data is transmitted on one or more of the following: the first logical channel a, the first DRB information d, and the first QoS flow information f (the first feature). The first UL data is service data, such as UL video data. Therefore, it can be determined that the target configuration authorization is DL SPS configuration 1 corresponding to the first feature.

[0195] In this embodiment, the UE can know that DL SPS configuration 1 will be activated after sending the first UL service data according to the first configuration information in step one. This realizes the activation of SPS configuration based on UL service data without sending DCI, thus saving DCI overhead.

[0196] Step 3: Activate the first SPS configuration on the terminal;

[0197] The terminal can learn from the first configuration information in step one that when the first UL data corresponds to one or more of the specific logical channel, DRB configuration, QoS flow, and configuration authorization, the first SPS configuration needs to be activated.

[0198] For example, the first configuration information in step one indicates that when the first UL data is sent on the first logical channel a, the terminal needs to activate DL SPS configuration 1.

[0199] The terminal can determine the DL SPS configuration information based on the first configuration information; the DL SPS configuration information includes the SPS period, time-frequency domain resource location, MCS information, etc.

[0200] For example, after the terminal sends the first UL data on the first logical channel a, the terminal finds DL SPS configuration 1 according to the correspondence provided in step one, and activates DL SPS configuration 1. The resource location for activating DL SPS configuration 1 is determined according to the first configuration information.

[0201] Step 4: The terminal device, at the beginning position of DL SPS configuration 1, uses the MCS of DL SPS configuration 1 and receives TBS according to the period of DL SPS configuration 1. DL SPS配置1 PDSCH data;

[0202] After performing step one to determine the first configuration information once or more, steps two to four can be performed multiple times within a certain time period.

[0203] Taking the UE activating DL SPS based on the BSR information of the first UL data as an example:

[0204] Step 1: The network side configures the first configuration information to the UE. The first configuration information includes DL SPS configuration information corresponding to the BSR logical channel group; the first logical channel group refers to the logical channel group that reports the first data.

[0205] If logical channels a, b, or c belong to logical channel group x, then when the BSR reports the data size of logical channel group x, logical channels a, b, and c will all be included in the calculation.

[0206] The specific signaling correspondence can be:

[0207] Logical channel group list, i.e., logical channel group x: SPS configuration k

[0208] SPS configuration k: SPS start position, SPS TBS size, SPS period, MCS, etc.

[0209] The length of the list containing the signaling correspondence is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0210] Step 2: The first UL data arrives at the terminal, and the terminal triggers the first BSR. The first BSR includes the size of the first UL data, and the first UL data belongs to the first logical channel group.

[0211] Step 3: Activate the first SPS configuration on the terminal;

[0212] The terminal determines the DL SPS configuration information based on the first configuration information; the first logical channel group in the first configuration information corresponds to the SPS configuration k, and the SPS configuration information includes: the SPS period, time-frequency domain resource location, MCS information, etc.

[0213] For example, when data arrives on logical channel a, the terminal triggers the first BSR, which includes the amount of data on logical channel a.

[0214] Logical channel a belongs to logical channel group x. The terminal activates SPS configuration k according to the SPS configuration corresponding to logical channel group x.

[0215] Step 4: The terminal device, at the beginning position of SPS configuration k, uses the MCS of SPS configuration k according to the period of SPS configuration k to receive TBS. SPS配置k PDSCH data.

[0216] After performing step one to determine the first configuration information once or more, steps two to four can be performed multiple times within a certain time period.

[0217] Taking the UE activating UL CG based on at least one of the logical channel, DRB information, and QoS flow from the first DL data as an example:

[0218] Step 1: Configure first configuration information on the network side. The first configuration information includes UL configuration authorization information corresponding to at least one of the first logical channel, DRB, and QoS flow. The first logical channel is the logical channel corresponding to the first DL data. The first DRB is the data bearer corresponding to the first DL data, and the QoS flow refers to the QoS flow corresponding to the first DL data.

[0219] The specific signaling correspondence can be:

[0220] Logical channel m: Configure authorization k,

[0221] Among them, at least one of different logical channels, DRB, QoS flow, or SPS can correspond to a configuration authorization configuration.

[0222] Step 2: The terminal receives the first DL data; the DL data is transmitted on at least one of logical channel m, DRB configuration m, QoS flow m, and SPS configuration m, wherein the period of SPS configuration m is the m-th period.

[0223] Step 3: Activate the first CG configuration on the terminal;

[0224] The terminal determines the UL CG configuration information based on the first configuration information; the CG configuration information includes the CG period, time-frequency domain resource location, MCS information, etc.

[0225] For example, after receiving the first DL data on logical channel m, the terminal determines that the first DL data satisfies one or more of the following conditions:

[0226] The logical channel corresponds to logical channel m;

[0227] DRB configuration corresponds to DRB configuration m;

[0228] QoS flow corresponds to QoS flow m;

[0229] SPS configuration corresponds to SPS configuration m.

[0230] Then, based on the signaling correspondence in step 1, the terminal finds the CG configuration k and activates the CG configuration k.

[0231] Step 4: At the beginning of CG configuration k, using the MCS of CG configuration k within the period of CG configuration k, send TBS. CG配置k PUSCH data.

[0232] After performing step one to determine the first configuration information once or more, steps two to four can be performed multiple times within a certain time period.

[0233] Optionally, in some embodiments, activating the target configuration authorization based on the first information includes:

[0234] After receiving confirmation information from the network-side device regarding the activation request, the target configuration authorization is activated based on the configuration information of the target configuration authorization.

[0235] The activation request information is carried in the target data during the transmission of the target data, and the activation request information includes the target configuration authorization configuration information.

[0236] Optionally, the target data can be uplink data, and activation request information can be carried when transmitting the target data. The activation request information includes target configuration authorization information, which can be determined by the terminal based on the first feature corresponding to the target data, or it can be configuration information expected by the terminal.

[0237] When it is determined that the target data needs to be transmitted based on the first feature, that is, when it is determined that the previously transmitted target data in the transmission meets one of the second features, the target configuration authorization corresponding to the first feature can be determined, and the configuration information of the target configuration authorization is carried in the activation request information. The activation request information is carried in the target data, and the activation of the target configuration authorization can be triggered when the target data is transmitted.

[0238] Taking the terminal activating DL SPS based on the requested SPS information as an example:

[0239] Step 1: Configure the first configuration information on the network side terminal, including DL SPS configuration information;

[0240] The DL SPS configuration information includes: SPS start position, configuration licensed transport block size (SPS TBS) size, SPS period, modulation and coding scheme (MCS), SPS index number, etc.

[0241] Step 2: The terminal sends the first UL data, carrying SPS activation request information; the terminal reports the SPS configuration index number (the index number of the target configuration authorization); or the terminal reports the expected SPS period, MCS value, SPS TBS size, etc.

[0242] For example, after the terminal sends the first UL data on the logical channel m, the terminal determines that the SPS configuration k needs to be activated based on the characteristics of the first UL data.

[0243] Step 3: Activate the first SPS configuration on the terminal;

[0244] Specifically, after receiving confirmation from the network-side device based on the SPS activation request information, the terminal can receive TBS at the beginning of the SPS configuration k, using the MCS of the SPS configuration k at the period of SPS configuration k. SPS配置k PDSCH data;

[0245] After executing step one to determine the first configuration information, steps two through four can be executed multiple times within a certain time period.

[0259] The activation method provided in this application first performs the transmission of target data. Based on the first feature of the target data transmission, it determines the target configuration authorization to be autonomously activated. By utilizing the characteristics of business data to trigger the autonomous activation of the target configuration authorization, it avoids the waste of resources caused by sending DCI multiple times and saves the overhead of PDCCH.
