[0030] The data receiving method and data sending method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0031] Figure 2 This diagram illustrates a data receiving method according to an embodiment of the present application. This method 200 can be executed by a terminal. In other words, the method can be executed by software or hardware installed on the terminal. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps.

[0032] S210, the receiving terminal in the secondary link determines the receiving beam according to the first rule.

[0033] In this embodiment, the receiving terminal (RX UE) can be a relay terminal in the secondary link or a remote terminal in the secondary link; the specific implementation is not limited in this embodiment.

[0034] In this embodiment, to combat the high transmission path loss or obstruction issues in the FR2 band, the sidelink UE can use beamforming for transmission when transmitting in the FR2 band. For a pair of transmitting terminals (TX UE) and receiving terminals (RX UE), the TX UE uses the TX beam for transmission, and the RX UE uses the RX beam for reception, which can improve the signal strength and / or coverage of the transmission.

[0035] The Sidelink UE can employ a multi-panel transceiver architecture, where each panel corresponds to a beam in a specific direction, transmitting / receiving in that beam direction. Therefore, in this embodiment, the RX UE determines the receiving beam according to the first rule.

[0036] It should be noted that the beam in the embodiments of this application may be a spatial domain filter, a precoder, a reference signal resource index (RS resource index), a transmission configuration indicator (TCI), an antenna panel, etc.

[0037] S212, the receiving terminal uses the receiving beam to receive the transmission on the secondary link.

[0038] In this embodiment of the application, the receiving terminal can determine the receiving beam corresponding to each resource according to the first rule, and use the determined receiving beam to receive the secondary link transmission on the corresponding resource, instead of receiving the transmission from a certain TX UE with a certain directional beam. This can avoid the problems of not receiving the transmission from TX UEs in other directions and not being able to accurately detect the occupancy status of the channel.

[0039] In one possible implementation of this application, the first rule may include receiving using a first beam on a first target resource.

[0040] In the first possible implementation, the first target resource may include at least one of the following: a preset time-domain resource and a preset frequency-domain resource. For example, all resources in the resource pool, meaning that the receiving terminal always uses the first beam for reception.

[0041] The first beam can be a preset beam, such as an omnidirectional beam, or a beam determined autonomously by the receiving terminal. A beam determined autonomously by the receiving terminal means that the receiving terminal selects the receiving beam based on its own circumstances, such as determining the receiving beam based on the direction of reception, or selecting the beam with the largest radiation angle based on its antenna radiation mode.

[0042] The preset beam can include one of the following: a beam agreed upon by the protocol, a beam configured by the control node, or a pre-configured beam. In other words, the preset beam can be a beam agreed upon by the protocol, configured by the control node, or pre-configured.

[0043] Alternatively, the protocol may stipulate that the first beam used for reception on the first target resource is the same beam or a beam with a quasi-co-location relationship. For example, the protocol stipulates that the receiving terminal uses the same beam or a beam with a quasi-co-location relationship to receive data on preset time-domain resources and / or frequency-domain resources (e.g., resource pools).

[0044] In a second possible implementation, the first target resource may include resources occupied by the first target information, wherein the first target information includes at least one of the following: a preset channel, a preset symbol, and preset information.

[0045] Optionally, the preset channel may include: Physical Side Link Control Channel (PSCCH).

[0046] Optionally, the preset symbols may include symbols occupied by Sidelink Control Information (SCI). For example, the first symbol of PSCCH to symbol 2. nd The last symbol in the SCI mapping; the symbol indicated by the control node, etc.

[0047] Optionally, the preset information may include: physical layer SCI.

[0048] In the secondary link, the Physical SideLink Shared Channel (PSSCH) is used for data transmission. Control information associated with the PSSCH is carried in the SCI of both the PSCCH and PSSCH. The SCI is divided into two levels: 1... stIn stage SCI, PSCCH, 2 nd Stage SCI is in PSSCH. The preset information may include 1. st stage SCI and / or 2 nd stage SCI.

[0049] In this possible implementation, the first beam can be a preset beam, such as an omnidirectional beam, or a beam determined autonomously by the receiving terminal. Here, the beam determined autonomously by the receiving terminal refers to the receiving terminal selecting the receiving beam to use based on its own circumstances.

[0050] The preset beam can include one of the following: a beam agreed upon by the protocol, a beam configured by the control node, or a pre-configured beam. In other words, the preset beam can be agreed upon by the protocol, configured by the control node, or pre-configured, for example, pre-configured in the receiving terminal before it leaves the factory.

[0051] Furthermore, the receiving terminal uses the same beam or a beam with a quasi-co-location relationship when receiving on the first target resource. For example, the RX UE uses the same beam or a beam with a quasi-co-location relationship to receive on a preset channel or preset symbol.

[0052] In the second possible implementation described above, optionally, the first rule may further include: determining a second beam used on a second target resource based on first beam indication information, wherein the second target resource includes resources occupied by second target information, wherein the second target information includes at least one of the following:

[0053] At least some channels other than the preset channel; for example, PSSCH.

[0054] At least some of the symbols other than the preset symbols. For example, 2 in PSSCH. nd Symbols following SCI; symbols configured in control nodes, etc.

[0055] The first beam indication information is included in the SCI associated with the second target resource.

[0056] Optionally, the first beam indication information can be indicated by a control node, for example, by a base station or a UE with control power. Alternatively, the first beam indication information can also be indicated by a transmitting terminal (TX UE).

[0057] For example, the TX UE indicating the first beam indication information may include one of the following:

[0058] (1)TX UE directly indicates TCI configuration, quasi-co-address (QCL) relationship, etc.

[0059] (2) The TX UE indirectly indicates the beam by indicating time-domain and / or frequency-domain information, wherein the time-domain and / or frequency-domain information is associated with the beam information, and the association relationship may be agreed upon by the protocol / configured / pre-configured.

[0060] (3) The TX UE indirectly indicates the beam by indicating its previous HARQ process, transport block (TB), or physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH), wherein the previous TB transmission and the current TB transmission use the same beam or have a quasi-co-located beam.

[0061] (4) The TX UE indirectly indicates the beam by indicating the HARQ process, TB, or PSFCH of the previously received RX UE, wherein the previous TB reception and the current TB transmission use the same beam or a beam with a quasi-co-location relationship.

[0062] For example, when a TX UE performs PSCCH and / or PSSCH multicast transmission, and the TX UE retransmits the NACK from an RX UE, the transmission beam for the PSCCH and / or PSSCH retransmission can be adjusted based on the PSFCH transmit / receive beam of the RX UE that sent the NACK. The retransmission beam can be implicitly indicated.

[0063] In one possible implementation, the first rule may include: if no second beam indication information for the target transmission is obtained before the target transmission, the target transmission is received using the first beam; if the second beam indication information for the target transmission is obtained before the target transmission, the receiving beam for the target transmission is determined according to the second beam indication information.

[0064] In other words, in this possible implementation, if the RX UE obtains beam indication information for a certain transmission (e.g., PSCCH and / or PSSCH retransmission) in advance, the RX UE determines the receiving beam based on the beam indication information.

[0065] Optionally, the second beam indication information may be included in the SCI associated with the target transmission, for example, the SCI included in the previous PSCCH and / or PSSCH transmission.

[0066] Optionally, the second beam indication information may be indicated by a control node (e.g., a base station or a UE with control functions) and / or a transmitting terminal.

[0067] The method by which the TX UE indicates the second beam indication information is similar to the method of indicating the first beam indication information; for details, please refer to the above description regarding the TX UE indicating the first beam indication information.

[0068] Optionally, if the RX UE does not obtain in advance the beam indication information corresponding to reception on a certain time domain and / or frequency domain resource (e.g., the initial transmission of TB), the RX UE uses a specific beam (i.e., the first beam) for reception. Optionally, the specific beam can be a preset beam (e.g., an omnidirectional beam) or a beam determined autonomously by the RX UE. The preset beam can be protocol-defined, configured by the control node, or pre-configured.

[0069] In one possible implementation, the first rule may include: using a first beam for reception on a third target resource, and / or using a third beam for reception on a fourth target resource. That is, in this possible implementation, the RX UE may employ specific beam reception (e.g., omnidirectional beam reception) on certain preset resources (e.g., the third target resource, including time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources), and / or may employ indicated beams (e.g., directional beam reception) on other preset resources (e.g., the fourth target resource).

[0070] Optionally, the third target resource may include at least one of the following: a dedicated resource for groupcast transmission, or a dedicated resource for broadcast transmission.

[0071] Optionally, the third target resource can be configured by the control node or pre-configured.

[0072] In the above possible implementations, the third target resource can be set for one transmission type, or the third target resource can be set for multiple transmission types. For example, the third target resource can be set independently for one transmission type, or the third target resource can be set independently for multiple different transmission types.

[0073] Optionally, the fourth target resource includes dedicated resources for unicast transmission.

[0074] Optionally, the fourth target resource can be configured by the control node or pre-configured.

[0075] Optionally, the fourth target resource is the resource negotiated between the receiving terminal and the transmitting terminal for data transmission between terminal pairs. For example, the RX UE and TX UE can negotiate time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources for data transmission between UE-pairs, so that the transmission of different TX UEs corresponding to the RX UE is TDM transmission, and the RX UE only needs to use one type of beam for reception at a certain time.

[0076] Optionally, the first beam may be a preset beam, such as an omnidirectional beam, or it may be a beam determined autonomously by the RX UE. The preset beam may be agreed upon by the protocol, configured by the control node, or pre-configured.

[0077] Optionally, the third beam may be the beam indicated by the third beam indication information. The third beam indication information may be indicated by a control node (e.g., a base station or a UE with control functions), or it may be indicated by a TX UE. The way the TX UE indicates the third beam indication information is similar to the way it indicates the first beam indication information; for details, please refer to the above description regarding the TX UE indicating the first beam indication information.

[0078] Alternatively, the third beam can also be the first beam.

[0079] In one possible implementation, the first rule may further include: if the receiving terminal does not support receiving on the fifth target resource using multiple beams, but the receiving terminal is configured to receive on the fifth target resource using multiple beams, the receiving terminal determines the receiving beam according to one of the following (1) to (4). Wherein, the receiving terminal being configured to receive on the fifth target resource using multiple beams may be indicated by a control node, a transmitting terminal, or a protocol stipulation that the receiving terminal uses multiple beams to receive on the fifth target resource.

[0080] (1) Based on the transmission attribute information, determine whether to prioritize the use of the beam corresponding to the first transmission and / or abandon the beam corresponding to the second transmission, wherein the attribute information includes at least one of the following: priority information and quality of service (QoS) information. The QoS information may include reliability, latency, packet delay budget (PDB), etc.

[0081] For example, (preferentially) abandon directional beams corresponding to low-priority or low-QoS transmissions (including transmissions with low reliability, large PDB, or remaining PDB).

[0082] Optionally, in this possible implementation, when the beam corresponding to the second transmission is abandoned, the transmitting terminal corresponding to the second transmission can be triggered to perform resource reselection.

[0083] Optionally, in this possible implementation, the receiving terminal may notify the sending terminal that it prefers to use time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources, wherein the time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources correspond to the beam corresponding to the first transmission, and / or may also notify the sending terminal that it does not prefer to use time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources, wherein the time-domain and / or frequency-domain resources correspond to the beam corresponding to the second transmission.

[0084] (2) The first beam is used to receive the signal on the fifth target resource.

[0085] Optionally, the first beam can be a preset beam (e.g., an omnidirectional beam) or a beam determined autonomously by the RX UE. The preset beam can be protocol-defined, control node-configured, or pre-configured.

[0086] (3) The fifth beam is used to receive on the fifth target resource, wherein the fifth beam is the beam indicated by the beam indication information; for example, the RX UE preferentially uses the indicated beam to receive on the fifth target resource.

[0087] (4) Reception is performed on the fifth target resource using the sixth beam, wherein the sixth beam is the beam with a larger number of corresponding transmitting terminals and / or a larger number of corresponding transport blocks. For example, RX UE (preferred) uses the receiving beam with a larger number of corresponding TX UEs and / or a larger number of TB transmissions to perform reception on the time domain and / or frequency domain resource (i.e., the fifth target resource).

[0088] Alternatively, the RX UE can avoid using multiple (directional) beams to receive on a certain time and / or frequency domain resource through negotiation between the RX UE and the TX UE or proximity UE (e.g., negotiating time and / or frequency domain resources used for transmission between pair-UEs). That is, the RX UE enables multiple (directional) receive beams in a TDM manner.

[0089] In one possible implementation, the first rule may include: determining the receiving beam according to a preset reference direction.

[0090] Optionally, the preset reference direction includes one of the following: a reference direction agreed upon in the protocol, a reference direction configured by the control node, or a pre-configured reference direction. For example, a certain absolute direction can be used as the reference direction.

[0091] Optionally, the received beam includes at least one of the following:

[0092] Determine the number of the received beams;

[0093] Determine the width of the received beam;

[0094] Determine the radiation mode of the received beam;

[0095] The numbering of the received beam is determined, for example, the beam in the reference direction is used as the first number, and the remaining beams are numbered clockwise.

[0096] Optionally, in the above possible implementations, after the receiving terminal determines the receiving beam according to the first rule, the method further includes: the receiving terminal carrying first information in the transmitted first signaling, wherein the first signaling is used to indicate and / or reserve receiving resources, and the first information includes at least one of the following: beam information, location information of the receiving terminal. For example, when the UE indicates or reserves reception resources, it carries beam information and / or the UE's location information in the corresponding signaling (e.g., SCI).

[0097] Optionally, in the above possible implementations, before the receiving terminal determines the receiving beam according to the first rule, the method further includes: the receiving terminal selecting receiving resources based on monitored second information, wherein the second information includes at least one of the following: location information of nearby terminals, beam indication information sent by nearby terminals, and resource occupancy information of nearby terminals. For example, when the UE selects sensing and reception resources, it selects resources based on detecting / listening to beam indication information sent by nearby UEs, and / or location information of nearby UEs (or relative location information between nearby UEs and the UE), and / or resource occupancy information of nearby UEs.

[0098] Optionally, the nearby terminal includes a nearby transmitting terminal. For example, the nearby UE includes at least a nearby TX UE, and the beam indication information includes at least the transmission beam indicated by the nearby TX UE.

[0099] In the above possible implementations, the nearby terminal can be determined based on one of the following: location information between terminals, energy measurement results between terminals, or signal quality measurement results between terminals.

[0100] The technical solution provided by the embodiments of this application can set the receiving beam of the RX UE, so that the RX UE can use receiving beams in multiple directions to receive the transmission of the secondary link. This can avoid the problem that the RX UE only uses a certain directional RX beam to receive the transmission from a certain TX UE, and may not receive the transmission from TX UEs in other directions, and cannot accurately detect the channel occupancy status.

[0101] Figure 3This diagram illustrates a flow chart of a data transmission method provided in an embodiment of this application. This method 300 can be executed by a terminal. In other words, the method can be executed by software or hardware installed on the terminal. Figure 3 As shown, the method may include the following steps.

[0102] S310, the transmitting terminal in the secondary link determines the transmission beam of the target transmission.

[0103] In this embodiment, the transmitting terminal (TX UE) can be a relay terminal in the secondary link or a remote terminal in the secondary link; the specific implementation is not limited in this embodiment.

[0104] In this embodiment, to combat the high transmission path loss or obstruction issues in the FR2 band, the sidelink UE can use beamforming for transmission when transmitting in the FR2 band. For a pair of transmitting terminals (TX UE) and receiving terminals (RX UE), the TX UE uses the TX beam for transmission, and the RX UE uses the RX beam for reception, which can improve the signal strength and / or coverage of the transmission.

[0105] In this embodiment, the Sidelink UE can employ a multi-panel transceiver architecture, where each panel corresponds to a beam in a specific direction, transmitting / receiving in that beam direction. Therefore, in this application embodiment, the TX UE determines the transmission beam for the target transmission before performing the target transmission.

[0106] S312, the transmitting terminal uses the transmitting beam to perform the target transmission on the secondary link.

[0107] The technical solution provided in this application embodiment enables the TX UE to transmit to the target using beams, thereby reducing path loss in secondary link transmission and improving the transmission signal strength.

[0108] In one possible implementation, the transmitting terminal determining the transmission beam may include: the transmitting terminal determining to perform a transport block (TB) transmission in the form of a resource set; the transmitting terminal determining the transmission beam used by the target transmission based on at least one resource set.

[0109] For example, in broadcast or multicast transmission, a transmitting terminal can perform a TB transmission in the form of a resource set, including the initial TB transmission and the TB retransmission. The resource set may include: the time-domain and / or frequency-domain resource set of the PSCCH, and / or the time-domain and / or frequency-domain resource set of the PSSCH.

[0110] Optionally, resources in the same resource set may have the same size. Of course, this is not a limitation. In specific applications, resources in the same resource set may have different sizes.

[0111] Optionally, the number of resources in one of the resource sets is a predetermined value, which is determined by one of the following: protocol agreement, control node configuration, pre-configuration, or autonomous determination by the sending terminal.

[0112] Optionally, resources in a resource set can appear consecutively in time. For example, they can appear consecutively in the sidelink slot of a resource pool, or consecutively in the logical slot.

[0113] When resources in a resource set appear consecutively in time, at least some resources in the resource pool are configured or pre-configured in the form of a resource set; or, the sending terminal selects the resource set using the resource set as the basic unit for resource selection.

[0114] Alternatively, the resources in the resource set may appear discontinuously in time. Optionally, in this case, the sending terminal may select the resource set using a single resource as the basic unit of resource selection.

[0115] In one possible implementation, the transmission beam corresponding to the resource in the resource set includes one of the following: a preset transmission beam, or a transmission beam determined autonomously by the transmitting terminal. Optionally, the preset transmission beam may be protocol-defined, configured by the control node, or pre-configured.

[0116] Alternatively, the transmission beam pattern (e.g., beam scanning mode) corresponding to the resources in the resource set includes one of the following: a preset transmission beam pattern, or a transmission beam pattern determined autonomously by the transmitting terminal. Optionally, the preset transmission beam pattern may be protocol-defined, control node-configured, or pre-configured.

[0117] In one possible implementation, the first transmit beam and the second transmit beam have a quasi-co-location relationship, wherein the first transmit beam corresponds to a first resource in a first resource set, and the second transmit beam corresponds to a second resource in a second resource set, wherein the at least one resource set includes the first resource set and the second resource set. That is, the transmit beams corresponding to resources in the resource sets have a quasi-co-location relationship, wherein transmit beams with a quasi-co-location relationship correspond to the same beam.

[0118] Among the possible implementation methods described above, one of the following can be used: protocol agreement, control node configuration, or pre-configuration:

[0119] (1) The first resource set and the second resource set; that is, which resource sets have a quasi-co-located relationship in their resource transmission beams as agreed by the protocol, configured by the control node, or pre-configured. For example, resource sets whose resource transmission beams all have a quasi-co-located relationship.

[0120] (2) The first resource in the first resource set and the second resource in the second resource set. That is, which resources in the resource sets have a quasi-co-location relationship, as agreed by the protocol, configured by the control node, or pre-configured. For example, the transmission beams on resources with the same number in the resource sets have a quasi-co-location relationship.

[0147] For example, the transmission beam of PSCCH (and / or resource reservation signaling) and / or PSSCH (and / or data transmission) may be at least one of the following: a preset beam, a beam determined autonomously by the TX UE, or a beam indicated by the RX UE. For example, in scenarios where the RX UE schedules the TX UE or assists the TX UE, the RX UE may indicate the transmission beam of the TX UE.

[0153] (2) The sixth control information associated with the information transmission on the third resource, wherein the sixth control information indicates the transmission beam corresponding to the information transmission on the third resource, and the third resource is one of the at least one resources.

[0156] Optionally, the TX UE indicating fourth beam indication information may include one of the following:

[0157] (1)TX UE directly indicates TCI configuration, quasi-co-address (QCL) relationship, etc.

[0158] (2) The TX UE indirectly indicates the beam by indicating time-domain and / or frequency-domain information, wherein the time-domain and / or frequency-domain information is associated with the beam information, and the association relationship may be agreed upon by the protocol / configured / pre-configured.

[0161] For example, when a TX UE performs PSCCH and / or PSSCH multicast transmission, and the TX UE retransmits the NACK from an RX UE, the transmission beam for the PSCCH and / or PSSCH retransmission can be adjusted based on the PSFCH transmit / receive beam of the RX UE that sent the NACK.

[0173] The technical solution provided in this application embodiment can set the transmission beam of the TX UE, so that the TX UE can use transmission beams in multiple directions to transmit the secondary link.
