Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, software, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but also includes steps or units not listed, or other steps or units inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0039] It should be noted that the term "connection" in the embodiments of this application refers to various connection methods, such as direct connection or indirect connection, to achieve communication between devices, and is not limited in any way. The terms "network" and "system" in the embodiments of this application express the same concept; a communication system is a communication network.

[0040] The technical solutions of this application embodiment can be applied to various wireless communication systems, such as: Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) system, Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) system, General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, Advanced Long Term Evolution (LTE-A) system, New Radio (NR) system, evolution of NR system, LTE-based Access to Unlicensed Spectrum (LTE-U) system, NR-based Access to Unlicensed Spectrum (NR-U) system, Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) system, Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Networks, WLAN, Wireless Fidelity (WiFi), 6th-Generation (6G) communication systems, or other communication systems, etc.

[0041] It should be noted that traditional wireless communication systems support a limited number of connections and are easy to implement. However, with the development of communication technology, wireless communication systems can support not only traditional wireless communication systems, but also communication such as device-to-device (D2D), machine-to-machine (M2M), machine-type communication (MTC), vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-everything (V2X), and narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT). Therefore, the technical solutions of the embodiments in this application can also be applied to the above-mentioned wireless communication systems.

[0043] Optionally, the wireless communication system in this application embodiment can be applied to unlicensed spectrum. Unlicensed spectrum can also be considered as shared spectrum. Alternatively, the wireless communication system in this application embodiment can also be applied to licensed spectrum. Licensed spectrum can also be considered as non-shared spectrum.

[0044] This application describes various embodiments in conjunction with terminals and network devices. The terminals and network devices involved will be described in detail below.

[0045] Specifically, a terminal can be user equipment (UE), a remote UE, a relay UE, an access terminal, a user unit, a user station, a mobile station, a mobile station, a remote station, a mobile device, a user terminal, a smart terminal, a wireless communication device, a user agent, or a user device. It should be noted that a relay device is a terminal capable of providing relay forwarding services to other terminals (including remote terminals). Additionally, a terminal can also be a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a handheld device with wireless communication capabilities, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, an in-vehicle device, a wearable device, a terminal in a next-generation communication system (such as an NR communication system or a 6G communication system), or a terminal in a future public land mobile network (PLMN), etc., without specific limitations.

[0046] Furthermore, the terminals can be deployed on land, including indoors or outdoors, handheld, wearable, or vehicle-mounted; they can be deployed on water (such as ships); and they can be deployed in the air (such as airplanes, balloons, and satellites).

[0047] Furthermore, the terminal can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver capabilities, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in autonomous driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical care, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, or a wireless terminal device in a smart home, etc.

[0048] Specifically, network equipment can be devices used for communication with terminals, responsible for radio resource management (RRM), quality of service (QoS) management, data compression and encryption, and data transmission and reception on the air interface side. Network equipment can be a base station (BS) in a communication system or a device deployed in a radio access network (RAN) to provide wireless communication functions. Examples include base stations (BTS) in GSM or CDMA communication systems, node Bs (NBs) in WCDMA communication systems, evolved node Bs (eNBs or eNodeBs) in LTE communication systems, next-generation evolved node Bs (ng-eNBs) in NR communication systems, next-generation node Bs (gNBs) in NR communication systems, master nodes (MNs) in dual-link architectures, and secondary nodes (SNs) in dual-link architectures, without specific limitations.

[0049] Furthermore, network devices can also be other devices in the core network (CN), such as access and mobility management function (AMF), user plan function (UPF), etc.; they can also be access points (APs) and relay stations in wireless local area networks (WLANs), communication devices in future PLMN networks, and communication devices in NTN networks, etc.

[0050] Furthermore, the network device may include means for providing wireless communication capabilities to terminals, such as a chip system. For example, the chip system may include a chip, and may also include other discrete components.

[0051] Furthermore, network devices can communicate with Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet, private IP networks, or other data networks.

[0052] It should be noted that in some network deployments, a network device can be a standalone node to implement all the functions of the aforementioned base station. This can include centralized units (CUs) and distributed units (DUs), such as gNB-CU and gNB-DU; it can also include active antenna units (AAUs). The CU can implement some of the network device's functions, and so can the DU. For example, the CU is responsible for handling non-real-time protocols and services, implementing the functions of the radio resource control (RRC) layer, service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) layer, and packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer. The DU is responsible for handling physical layer protocols and real-time services, implementing the functions of the radio link control (RLC) layer, medium access control (MAC) layer, and physical (PHY) layer. Additionally, the AAU can implement some physical layer processing functions, radio frequency processing, and related functions of the active antenna. Since RRC layer information ultimately becomes PHY layer information, or is derived from PHY layer information, in this network deployment, higher-layer signaling (such as RRC layer signaling) can be considered to be sent by the DU, or jointly by the DU and AAU. It is understood that network devices can include at least one of CU, DU, and AAU. Furthermore, the CU can be classified as a network device in the radio access network (RAN), or it can be classified as a network device in the core network; no specific limitation is made in this regard.

[0053] Furthermore, the network equipment can possess mobility characteristics; for example, the network equipment can be a mobile device. Optionally, the network equipment can be a satellite or a balloon station. For example, the satellite can be a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite, a medium Earth orbit (MEO) satellite, a geostationary earthorbit (GEO) satellite, or a high elliptical orbit (HEO) satellite. Optionally, the network equipment can also be a base station located on land, water, or other similar locations.

[0054] Furthermore, network devices can provide services to a cell, and terminals within that cell can communicate with the network devices through transmission resources (such as spectrum resources). This cell can include macro cells, small cells, metro cells, micro cells, pico cells, and femto cells, among others.

[0055] Based on the above description, the wireless communication system of this application embodiment will be described below as an example.

[0056] For an example, see the wireless communication system of this application embodiment. Figure 1 The wireless communication system 10 may include a network device 110 and a terminal 120, wherein the network device 110 may be a device that communicates with the terminal 120. Simultaneously, the network device 110 may provide communication coverage for a specific geographical area and may communicate with the terminal 120 located within that coverage area.

[0057] Optionally, the wireless communication system 10 may also include multiple network devices, and each network device may include a certain number of terminals within its coverage area, which is not specifically limited here.

[0058] Optionally, the wireless communication system 10 may also include other network entities such as a network controller and a mobility management entity, which are not specifically limited here.

[0059] Optionally, the communication between network devices and terminals, and between terminals in the wireless communication system 10, can be wireless or wired communication, without specific restrictions.

[0060] Based on the above description, embodiments of this application provide a method for configuring non-continuous frequency domain resources, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0061] S210, Network devices send configuration information.

[0062] The configuration information can be used to determine the location of non-contiguous frequency domain resources within the first cell. These non-contiguous frequency domain resources may include at least one of the following: multiple carriers, multiple resource grids, and multiple bandwidth parts (BWPs). The frequency domain resources between two adjacent carriers may be non-contiguous, or the frequency domain resources between two adjacent resource grids may be non-contiguous, or the frequency domain resources between two adjacent bandwidth parts may be non-contiguous.

[0063] In some embodiments, the first cell may include a primary cell (PCell), a secondary cell (SCell), and a primary secondary cell (PSCell). It is understood that embodiments of this application may implement carrier aggregation (CA) or dual connectivity (DC).

[0064] In some embodiments, configuration information may be carried by at least one of the master information block (MIB), system information block (SIB), cell common high-layer signaling, and terminal-specific high-layer signaling. It is understood that this application can use the MIB, SIB, cell common high-layer signaling, terminal-specific high-layer signaling, etc., to carry configuration information in order to send or retrieve configuration information.

[0065] S220, The terminal obtains this configuration information.

[0066] S230. The terminal determines the location of non-continuous frequency domain resources in the first cell based on the configuration information.

[0067] It should be noted that the standard protocols developed by 3GPP have conducted relevant research on the configuration of frequency domain resources in cells. Specifically, the frequency domain resources configured by network equipment for terminals are contiguous resource blocks (RBs). However, with the continuous evolution of the standard protocols developed by 3GPP and the increasing complexity of communication scenarios, frequency domain resources within a cell may become discontinuous.

[0068] Based on this, this application can send configuration information through network devices, and then the terminal can determine the location of non-contiguous frequency domain resources in the first cell according to the configuration information, thereby realizing the configuration of non-contiguous frequency domain resources in the first cell through configuration information, and ensuring the robustness and stability of system communication.

[0069] Furthermore, regarding non-contiguous frequency domain resources within the first cell, this can be understood as the network configuring the frequency domain resources within the first cell as non-contiguous. Specifically, this can be determined based on whether the multiple carriers, multiple resource grids, or multiple bandwidth portions allocated to the first cell are non-contiguous. A detailed explanation follows:

[0070] 1) The non-contiguous frequency domain resources within the first cell may include multiple carriers. The frequency domain resources between any two adjacent carriers may be non-contiguous, and the frequency domain resources within each carrier may be continuous or non-contiguous. For the frequency domain resources between two adjacent carriers to be non-contiguous, it can be understood that, under the same subcarrier spacing (or the same parameter set numberology), the two adjacent carriers are not overlapping in the frequency domain, or there is a frequency shift interval between the frequency domain resources of the two adjacent carriers.

[0071] 2) The non-contiguous frequency domain resources within the first cell may include multiple resource grids. The frequency domain resources between two adjacent resource grids may be non-contiguous, while the frequency domain resources within each resource grid may be contiguous. Non-contiguous frequency domain resources between two adjacent resource grids can be understood as follows: under the same subcarrier spacing (or the same parameter set numberology), the two adjacent resource grids are not overlapping in the frequency domain, or there is a frequency interval between the frequency domain resources of two adjacent resource grids.

[0072] 3) The non-contiguous frequency domain resources within the first cell may include multiple bandwidth parts (BWPs). The frequency domain resources between two adjacent bandwidth parts may be non-contiguous, while the frequency domain resources within each bandwidth part may be contiguous. For the frequency domain resources between two adjacent bandwidth parts to be non-contiguous, it can be understood that, under the same subcarrier spacing (or the same parameter set numberology), the two adjacent bandwidth parts are non-overlapping in the frequency domain, or there is a frequency interval between the frequency domain resources of two adjacent bandwidth parts.

[0073] In summary, this application can configure multiple carriers, multiple resource grids, and / or multiple bandwidth portions of a first cell through configuration information, wherein the frequency domain resources between two adjacent carriers are non-contiguous, the frequency domain resources within each carrier are either contiguous or non-contiguous, the frequency domain resources between two adjacent resource grids are non-contiguous, and the frequency domain resources between two adjacent bandwidth portions are non-contiguous, thereby enabling the configuration of non-contiguous frequency domain resources within the first cell.

[0074] For example, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 .exist Figure 3In this configuration, the network allocates four carriers or four resource grids for the first cell, namely carrier / resource grid 301, carrier / resource grid 302, carrier / resource grid 303, and carrier / resource grid 304. The frequency domain resources between two adjacent carriers or two adjacent resource grids are non-contiguous, while the frequency domain resources of each carrier or each resource grid are contiguous. Therefore, the frequency domain resources allocated to the first cell are non-contiguous.

[0075] exist Figure 4 In the network, one carrier, carrier 410, is configured for the first cell. Carrier 410 contains four bandwidth parts, namely BWP4101, BWP4102, BWP4103 and BWP4104. The frequency domain resources between two adjacent bandwidth parts are non-contiguous, while the frequency domain resources of each bandwidth part are contiguous. Therefore, the frequency domain resources of the configured carrier 410 are non-contiguous, and consequently, the frequency domain resources configured for the first cell are non-contiguous.

[0076] exist Figure 5 In this network configuration, three carriers are allocated to the first cell: carrier 510, carrier 520, and carrier 530. The frequency domain resources of carrier 530 are discontinuous. Carrier 510 comprises two bandwidth sections, BWP 5101 and BWP 5102. The frequency domain resources between adjacent bandwidth sections are discontinuous, while the frequency domain resources within each bandwidth section are continuous. Therefore, the frequency domain resources of carrier 510 are discontinuous. Similarly, carrier 520 comprises three bandwidth sections, BWP 5201, BWP 5202, and BWP 5203. The frequency domain resources between adjacent bandwidth sections are discontinuous, while the frequency domain resources within each bandwidth section are continuous. Therefore, the frequency domain resources allocated to the first cell via carriers 510, 520, and 530 are discontinuous.

[0077] Based on the above description, the technical solutions involved in the above methods will be specifically described in the following embodiments of this application.

[0078] Specifically, the configuration information may include at least one of the following: a first offset information, at least one second offset information, at least one absolute value information, at least one third offset information, at least one first bandwidth information, at least one position information, at least one second bandwidth information, at least one fourth offset information, at least one fifth offset information, at least one sixth offset information, and at least one seventh offset information.

[0079] Optionally, the first offset information can be used to configure the subcarrier offset between the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0) of the synchronization signal and PBCH block (SSB) used by the terminal for initial cell selection and the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0) of the first common resource block (CRB), which overlaps with the first common resource block in the frequency domain.

[0080] It should be noted that the configuration information in this application may include a first offset information, which can be determined by the parameter k. SSB This indicates that the parameter k SSB This can be used to configure the frequency domain resource offset between the SSB used by the terminal for initial cell selection and the CRB (i.e., the first common resource block) that overlaps with that SSB, in units of subcarriers, and the parameter k SSB The subcarrier spacing can be determined by the higher-layer parameter subCarrierSpacingCommon.

[0081] Additionally, the index (or number) of the CRB overlapping the SSB used by the terminal for initial cell selection is: In other words, parameter k SSB For configuration The subcarrier offset between the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0) of the SSB and the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0) of the SSB.

[0082] In some embodiments, the first offset information can be carried by the higher-level parameter ssb-SubcarrierOffset, which corresponds to the parameter k. SSB Furthermore, the higher-level parameter ssb-SubcarrierOffset can be carried by the higher-level parameter MIB (master information block), which is used to carry system information transmitted on the broadcast channel (BCH).

[0083] For example, the high-level parameter MIB contains the following information:

[0084] MIB::= SEQUENCE{

[0085] systemFrameNumber BIT STRING(SIZE(6)),

[0086] subCarrierSpacingCommon ENUMERATED{scs15or60,scs30or120},

[0087] ssb-SubcarrierOffset INTEGER(0..15),

[0088] dmrs-TypeA-Position ENUMERATED{pos2,pos3},

[0089] pdcch-ConfigSIB1 PDCCH-ConfigSIB1,

[0090] cellBarred ENUMERATED{barred,notBarred},

[0091] intraFreqReselection ENUMERATED{allowed,notAllowed},

[0092] spare bit string (size 1)

[0093] }

[0094] In summary, the terminal can obtain parameter k through the MIB. SSB .

[0095] Optionally, the second offset information can be used to configure the offset of the frequency domain resource location between the common reference point of the resource block grid and the lowest subcarrier of the first common resource block.

[0096] The unit of the offset configured in the second offset information is a resource block (RB), and the subcarrier spacing of the resource block is determined by the frequency point of the synchronization signal block used by the terminal for initial cell selection.

[0097] If the frequency of the synchronization signal block used by the terminal for initial cell selection is frequency range 1 (FR1), then the subcarrier spacing of the resource block is one of 15kHz, 30kHz, or 60kHz.

[0098] If the synchronization signal block used by the terminal for initial cell selection is located in frequency range 2 (FR2), then the subcarrier spacing of the resource block is one of 60kHz and 120kHz.

[0099] It should be noted that the offset configured in the second offset information can be determined by the subcarrier spacing determined by the frequency point of the SSB used by the terminal for initial cell selection. In some embodiments, this subcarrier spacing can be configured by the higher-layer parameter subCarrierSpacingCommon.

[0100] In addition, in conjunction with the above description, the configuration information of this application may also include at least one second offset information, which may be represented by the parameter offsetToPointA. The parameter offsetToPointA may be used to configure the offset of the frequency domain resource position between Point A and the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0) of the CRB (i.e., the first common resource block) that overlaps with the SSB used by the terminal for initial cell selection.

[0101] Point A represents a common reference point for resource block grids, and it can be obtained from either the parameter offsetToPointA or the parameter absoluteFrequencyPointA. The parameter absoluteFrequencyPointA can be used to configure the frequency domain resource location of Point A, represented by the absolute radio frequency channel number (ARFCN). Furthermore, the center position of the lowest subcarrier of CRB0 (i.e., subcarrier 0) overlaps with Point A.

[0102] In some embodiments, the parameter offsetToPointA can be carried by the higher-layer parameter FrequencyInfoDL-SIB. The higher-layer parameter FrequencyInfoDL-SIB can be used to provide basic parameter information of the downlink carrier and its transmission. Furthermore, the higher-layer parameter FrequencyInfoDL-SIB can be carried by the higher-layer parameter DownlinkConfigCommonSIB within the higher-layer parameter ServingCellConfigCommonSIB. Therefore, embodiments of this application can carry at least one second offset information through the higher-layer parameter FrequencyInfoDL-SIB.

[0103] For example, the high-level parameter FrequencyInfoDL-SIB contains the following information:

[0104] FrequencyInfoDL-SIB::= SEQUENCE{

[0105] frequencyBandList MultiFrequencyBandListNR-SIB,

[0106] offsetToPointA INTEGER(0..2199),

[0107] scs-SpecificCarrierList SEQUENCE(SIZE(1..maxSCSs))OF SCS-SpecificCarrier

[0108] }

[0109] For example, please refer to Figure 6 .exist Figure 6 As shown in (a), the network configures a first offset and a second offset for the first cell. The offset information includes the index (or number) of the CRB overlapping the SSB used by the terminal for initial cell selection. The first offset information is used for configuration. The subcarrier offset between the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0) of the SSB and the second offset information can be used to configure Point A and The offset of the frequency domain resource location between the lowest subcarrier (i.e., subcarrier 0).
