[0023] To better understand the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, the following content will be introduced first:
[0024] RedCap UE Introduction
[0025] The R17 version of the protocol supports low-capability terminals. Compared to older / traditional terminals, the capabilities of these Redcap terminals are reduced in the following aspects, as detailed in Table 1:
[0026] Table 1
[0027]
[0028] Random access procedure
[0029] NR supports two types of random access procedures: the 4-step RACH of MSG1 and the 2-step RACH of MSGA. Both types of RA procedures support contention-based RA (CBRA) and contention-free RA (CFRA).
[0030] The UE selects the type of random access based on network configuration:
[0031] (1) When CFRA resources are not configured, the UE selects the 2-step RA type and the 4-step RA type based on the RSRP threshold value;
[0032] (2) When CFRA resources are configured for the 4-step RA type, the UE uses the 4-step RA type to perform random access;
[0033] (3) When CFRA resources are configured for the 2-step RA type, the UE performs random access using the 2-step RA type.
[0034] Competition-based 4-step RACH process
[0035] In the 4-step RACH, the UE first sends MSG1 to the network, containing a preamble. After sending the preamble, the UE listens to the PDCCH within the RAR response window, using fallback DCI format (DCI format 1_0) to receive the random access response (RAR) scheduled by the PDCCH scrambled with RA-RNTI. If the preamble index in the RAR is the same as the preamble index sent by the UE, the RAR is considered successfully received. At this point, the UE can stop listening to the RAR and send MSG3 according to the UL grant instruction carried in the RAR. MSG3 is transmitted on the UL-SCH, using HARQ, scrambling the PDCCH with the TC-RNTI indicated by the RAR, and scheduling retransmissions of MSG3 using fallback DCI format (DCI format 1_0). MSG3 contains a unique identifier for the UE. This identifier will be used for conflict resolution in step four. After receiving MSG3, the network will schedule MSG4 using PDCCH scrambled with TC-RNTI. When the UE successfully decodes the UE Contention Resolution Identity MAC control element contained in MSG4 and finds that it matches the UE Contention Resolution Identity sent by MSG3, the UE will consider the random access to be successful and set its own C-RNTI to TC-RNTI, thus completing the 4-step random access.
[0036] MAC PDU and LCID
[0037] A MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU) contains one or more MAC subPDUs. Each MAC subPDU contains any one of the following:
[0038] (1) Contains only the MAC subheader;
[0039] (2) MAC subheader and Service Data Unit (SDU);
[0040] (3) MAC subheader and MAC CE;
[0041] (4) MAC header and padding;
[0042] The size of the MAC SDU is not fixed. Each MAC subheader corresponds to a MAC SDU, a MAC CE, or padding.
[0043] The information content of the MAC subheader is shown in Table 2:

[0049] During the current RedCap project discussions, the early identification method based on MSG1 and / or MSG3 was determined to explicitly identify RedCap UEs:
[0050] For 4-step random access, it is supported to use MSG1 for early identification, where the identification methods include configuring a dedicated PRACH resource or a dedicated preamble and / or a dedicated uplink initial BWP for the RedCap UE.
[0051] MSG3 early identification is based on a dedicated logical channel ID (LCID).
[0052] The methods and apparatus provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.
[0053] See Figure 2 This application provides an information reporting method, the execution subject of which can be a terminal, and the specific steps include:
[0054] Step 201: The terminal generates target information based on at least one of the following: random access-related information configured in the network, first indication information, terminal-related information, and first configuration information;
[0055] Step 202: The terminal reports the target information via PUSCH or MSG3 of message MSGA.
[0056] In this embodiment, the terminal generates target information based on at least one of the random access related information configured by the network, the first indication information, the terminal's related information, and the first configuration information. The terminal can confirm whether MSG1 or MSGA has been used for early identification based on the random access related information configured by the network, and the terminal determines whether the PUSCH of the terminal's MSG3 or MSG A can use the first LCID when a dedicated PRACH resource or a dedicated preamble and / or a dedicated uplink initial BWP is configured for the RedCap UE based on the first indication information. Then, the terminal determines whether the target information needs to be reported based on the terminal's related information and / or the first configuration information, specifically by reporting through the PUSCH of MSG3 and / or MSGA.
[0057] It is understandable that for the 4-step RA type, the messages involved are MSG1 and MSG3, and for the 2-step RA type, the message involved is MSGA, where MSGA includes two parts: the preamble and the PUSCH part of MSGA.
[0058] In the embodiments of this application, the UE indicates more information when transmitting MSG3 or MSGA so that the network can obtain more relevant information about the UE, thereby enabling more reasonable scheduling of the UE.
[0059] In one possible implementation, the random access-related information configured in the network includes one or more of the following:
[0060] (1) Terminal-specific random access resources or dedicated preamble;
[0061] (2) The dedicated uplink bandwidth portion (BWP) for the terminal;
[0062] (3) Whether the network enables terminals to be identified based on dedicated Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) resources or dedicated preambles based on MSG1 and / or MSGA.
[0063] (4) Whether the network enables uplink BWP identification terminals based on MSG1 and / or MSGA.
[0064] (5) Does the network support early identification using PUSCH based on MSG3 and / or MSGA?
[0065] (6) Whether the network supports the first logical channel; the first logical channel is used to transmit the PUSCH of the terminal's MSG3 and / or MSGA, and the identifier of the first logical channel is the first logical channel identity (LCID). The first LCID is a newly introduced LCID, and specifically, the value of the first LCID can use the reserved bits in Table 3 above.
[0066] In one possible implementation, the first indication information is used to indicate whether to use the first logical channel to transmit the PUSCH of MSG 3 and / or MSGA when the network is configured with dedicated random access resources or dedicated preambles, and / or the network is configured with dedicated uplink BWPs, and the terminal is identified by MSG1 or MSGA.
[0067] In this way, through the random access information and / or first indication information configured in the network, the terminal can confirm whether it has been identified in advance through MSG1 or MSGA, and whether it supports reporting more relevant information through the PUSCH of MSG 3 and / or MSGA in the future.
[0068] In one possible implementation, if it is determined, based on random access-related information configured in the network, that the MSG1 or MSGA sent by the terminal uses dedicated PRACH resources or contains a dedicated preamble in the MSG1 or MSGA sent by the terminal, and / or the MSG1 or MSGA sent by the terminal uses a dedicated uplink BWP, the target information includes additional information; this corresponds to the case where prior identification has been performed via MSG1 or MSGA.
[0069] If, based on the random access information configured in the network, it is determined that the MSG1 or MSGA sent by the terminal does not use dedicated PRACH resources and the MSG1 or MSGA sent by the terminal does not contain a dedicated preamble, and / or the MSG1 or MSGA sent by the terminal does not use a dedicated uplink BWP, the target information includes initial access information, or the target information includes initial access information and additional information; this situation corresponds to the failure to perform prior identification through MSG1 or MSGA.
[0070] The initial access information mentioned above is used to indicate whether the terminal is a RedCap terminal. The additional information mentioned above is related to the terminal's attributes or service information, measurement results, etc. The purpose of the additional information is to allow the network side to obtain more relevant information about the UE, so as to schedule the UE more reasonably.
[0071] In one possible implementation, the additional information includes one or more of the following:
[0072] (1) The number of receiving antennas of the terminal or the maximum number of antennas supported by the terminal, for example, 1Rx or 2Rx;
[0073] (2) The working mode supported by the terminal, such as full-duplex or half-duplex;
[0074] (3) Whether the terminal needs coverage enhancement, for example, the terminal determines based on the measurement results that the network needs to perform coverage enhancement in subsequent scheduling;
[0075] (4) The modulation order level or maximum modulation coding level supported by the terminal;
[0076] (5) Serving cell quality measured by the terminal;
[0077] (6) The latency requirements of the trigger event for the terminal to enter the connected state;

[0079] (8) Processing time supported by the terminal;
[0080] (9) Layer 2 cache information or soft cache information supported by the terminal;
[0081] (10) The number of data radio bearers (DRBs) supported by the terminal or the maximum number of DRBs;
[0082] (11) Terminal-supported Radio Resource Control (RRC) processing latency.
[0083] (12) Information from other terminals is not specifically limited.
[0084] In one possible implementation, the terminal's relevant information includes one or more of the following:
[0085] (1) Terminal attributes;
[0086] (2) Measurement results from the terminal;
[0087] (3) The attributes of the service executed when the terminal enters the connected state;
[0088] The terminal's attributes include one or more of the following:
[0089] (1.1) The number of receiving antennas of the terminal or the maximum number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal;
[0090] (1.2) The working modes supported by the terminal;
[0091] (1.3) Does the terminal require coverage enhancement?

[0096] (1.8) The number of DRBs supported by the terminal or the maximum number of DRBs;
[0097] (1.9) RRC processing latency supported by the terminal;
[0098] (1.10) Other terminal attributes are not specifically limited.
[0099] The measurement results from the terminal include:
[0100] (2.1) Serving cell quality measured by the terminal;
[0101] (2.2) Measurement results from other terminals are not specifically limited.
[0102] The attributes of the service executed when the terminal enters the connected state include:
[0103] (3.1) The latency requirements of the triggering event for the terminal to enter the connected state.
[0104] (3.2) The attributes of services executed by other terminals in the connected state are not specifically limited.
[0105] In one possible implementation, the first configuration information includes one or more of the following:
[0106] (1) The number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal or the maximum number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal; for example, the first configuration information specifically means that when the maximum number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal is a first value, a report is made; or it is an instruction for the terminal to report the maximum number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal; the first value includes 1 and 2; the meaning of the number of receiving antennas supported by the terminal is: configure 1Rx terminal to report; or 2Rx terminal to report; or configure the terminal to report the number of supporting receiving antennas;
[0107] (2) The working mode supported by the terminal; for example, the first configuration information specifically means that when the working mode supported by the terminal is a first value, it is reported; the first value includes half duplex and full duplex; or it is an instruction for the terminal to report the working mode supported by the terminal.
[0108] (3) Whether the terminal needs coverage enhancement, for example, the first configuration information specifically states that when the terminal needs coverage enhancement, it should report it;
[0109] (4) The modulation order level or maximum modulation coding level supported by the terminal; for example, the first configuration information specifically means that when the maximum modulation order supported by the terminal is a first value, it is reported; or it is an instruction for the terminal to report the maximum modulation order supported by the terminal; the first value includes 64QAM and 256QAM;
[0110] (5) The serving cell quality measured by the terminal or the serving cell quality threshold measured by the terminal; for example, if the first configuration information includes a threshold, then the UE-related measurement results are reported when they are less than / greater than / less than or equal to / greater than or equal to the threshold; or to instruct the terminal to report the serving cell quality measured by the terminal.
[0111] (6) The latency requirements of the triggering event for the terminal to enter the connection state; for example, the first configuration information indicates that the terminal should report when the triggering event for establishing the connection is a first value; or it indicates that the terminal should report the latency requirements of the triggering time for the terminal to enter the connection state; the first value includes voice and emenrgency.
[0112] (7) The maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal or the threshold of the maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal; for example, the first configuration information includes a threshold, and when the maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal is less than / greater than / less than or equal to / greater than or equal to the threshold, a report is made; or the terminal is instructed to report the level of the maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal.
[0113] (8) The processing time supported by the terminal or the maximum processing time threshold supported by the terminal reported by the terminal.
[0114] (9) Terminal-supported Layer 2 cache information or soft cache information reported by the terminal;
[0115] (10) The number of DRBs supported by the terminal or the maximum number of DRBs reported by the terminal;
[0116] (11) The RRC processing latency reported by the terminal.
[0117] In this way, the terminal can determine the content of the additional information in the target information to be reported based on the terminal's relevant information and / or the first configuration information. For example, if the first configuration information is the number of antennas, it instructs the 1Rx terminal to report the number of antennas. When the terminal's own attribute is 1Rx, it will generate additional information and report it; the 2Rx terminal will not generate additional information.
[0118] In one possible implementation, the first configuration information is pre-configured by network configuration and / or protocol; the first indication information is pre-configured by network configuration and / or protocol.
[0119] Specifically, when the serving cell uses the MSG1-based solution (i.e., MSG1 early identification), the protocol or network specifies, through configuration, whether the LCID of MSG3 should use the newly defined LCID or the existing LCID. The same applies to MSGA early identification, so it will not be elaborated further.
[0120] In one possible implementation, the method of carrying the first target information includes one or more of the following:
[0121] (1) Use the first LCID to indicate target information, wherein the first LCID is used to identify the first logical channel, and the first logical channel is used to transmit the PUSCH of the terminal's MSG3 and / or MSGA;
[0122] Specifically, the MAC PDU format of the PUSCH of MSG3 and / or MSGA at the MAC layer is: MAC subheader (including the newly introduced LCID) + MAD SDU (including legacy RRC message), that is, the newly introduced LCID corresponds to the legacy RRC message, and the legacy RRC message refers to the RRC message that already exists in R15 and R16.
[0123] In this embodiment, the number of newly introduced LCIDs is N, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1; the legacy 48-bit RRC message includes an RRC establishment request message, an RRC recovery request message, an RRC reconstruction request message, and a system information request message; the legacy 64-bit RRC message includes an RRC recovery request message. Specifically, there are currently two types of RRC messages, one 48-bit and one 64-bit, therefore at least two new LCIDs need to be introduced, one corresponding to the 48-bit RRC message and the other corresponding to the 64-bit RRC message.
[0124] In this embodiment of the application, a newly introduced LCID is used to indicate the content of the first target information. When the network receives the newly introduced LCID, it can determine the content of the corresponding first target information.
[0125] (2) Use the first MAC CE to carry target information; wherein the MAC subheader of the first MAC CE contains the first LCID;
[0126] Specifically, the MAC PDU format of the PUSCH of MSG3 and / or MSGA at the MAC layer is: MAC subheader (including a new LCID) + a new MAC CE + MAC subheader (including legacy LCID) + MAC SDU (including legacy RRC message), that is, the newly introduced LCID corresponds to a new MAC CE, which carries the first target information.
[0127] In this embodiment of the application, a new MAC CE is used to carry the information content of the first target information, and correspondingly, a new LCID is used to identify the new MAC CE.
[0128] (3) Use the first RRC message to carry target information; wherein the MAC subheader corresponding to the MAC SDU containing the first RRC message contains the first LCID.
[0129] Specifically, the MAC PDU format of the PUSCH of MSG3 and / or MSGA at the MAC layer is: MAC subheader (including legacy LCID) + MAC SDU (including a new 64-bit RRC message (RRC establishment request message, RRC recovery request message, RRC reconstruction request message, system information request message), applicable to the case of non-full I-RNTI (i.e., the case of 48-bit legacy RRC message)). The legacy LCID is the LCID corresponding to the current 64-bit RRC message. The new 64-bit RRC message is the legacy 48-bit RRC message with a new IE added to indicate the first target information.
[0130] In this embodiment of the application, a 64-bit legacy LCID of the RRC message is used. Thus, the RRC message identified by the legacy LCID has a message size of 64 bits. Among these 64 bits, 48 bits are existing 48-bit legacy RRC messages. Therefore, there are 16 bits of message size used to indicate the first target information. That is to say, the above-mentioned new 64-bit RRC message is composed of the 48-bit legacy RRC message and the 16-bit first target information.
[0131] Alternatively, specifically, the MAC PDU format of the PUSCH of MSG3 and / or MSGA at the MAC layer is: MAC subheader (including the new LCID) + MAC SDU (including the new RRC message); the new RRC message is larger than the legacy RRC message, that is, relative to the legacy RRC message, the new RRC message should add a new IE to indicate additional information;
[0132] In this embodiment of the application, the introduced LCID indicates, for example, a new RRC message of size 80 bits. This new RRC message of size 80 bits includes a legacy RRC message of size 64 bits and a first target information of size 16 bits. That is, the new RRC message is composed of the legacy RRC message of size 64 bits and the first target information of size 16 bits.
[0133] The solution of this application is described below with reference to specific embodiments:
[0134] Embodiment 1 of the present invention: RedCap UE is identified by the network through the MSG-3 early identification method.
[0135] Step 1: If the UE is a RedCap UE and the network has not configured a preamble dedicated to RedCap UEs, or the network has not configured PRACH resources dedicated to RedCap UEs, or the UE has selected PRACH resources for legacy UEs and the UE's MAC entity has selected the RA preamble for legacy UEs.
[0136] Step 2: The RedCap UE sends MSG 3, in which the MAC subheader of MSG3 uses the newly introduced logical channel ID. The newly introduced logical channel ID is an unused value in the current uplink LCID and is used to report that the UE is a RedCap UE type.
[0137] The methods for carrying the reported messages include:
[0138] (1) Two newly introduced LCID+legacy RRC messages, where the newly introduced LCID corresponds to the legacy RRC message. For example, when introducing the UL-CCCHX logical channel, it still carries a legacy 48-bit RRC establishment request message, a 48-bit RRC recovery request message, or a 64-bit RRC establishment request message.
[0139] (2) A new LCID + a new MAC CE + legacy RRC message;
[0140] That is, the newly introduced LCID corresponds to a new MAC CE, which carries information indicating that the UE is a RedCap UE.
[0141] (3) Legacy LCID + new 64-bit RRC messages (setup-request and resume-request), applicable to non-full I-RNTI cases. The new RRC messages can add new IEs to indicate that the UE is a RedCap UE.
[0142] Embodiment 2 of the present invention: RedCap UE based on MSG1 early identification method enables the network to explicitly identify RedCap UE.
[0143] Step 1: If the UE is a RedCap UE, and the network has configured a preamble specific to RedCap UEs, and the MAC entity has selected a RA preamble specific to RedCap UEs, or the network has configured PRACH resources specific to RedCap UEs, and the UE has selected PRACH resources specific to RedCap UEs.
[0144] Step 2: The RedCap UE sends MSG 3 to determine whether to report additional information based on the first criterion (i.e., the first configuration information mentioned above);
[0145] Additional information includes at least one of the following:
[0146] (1) The number of receiving antennas, including indicating that the RedCap UE is a 1Rx RedCap UE; or that the RedCap UE is a 2Rx RedCap UE.
[0147] (2) The working mode supported by the terminal, including indicating that the RedCap UE is a full-duplex FD RedCap UE; or the RedCap UE is a half-duplex RedCap UE.

[0156] (11) Terminal-supported Radio Resource Control (RRC) processing latency.
[0157] (12) Information from other terminals is not specifically limited.
[0158] The first principle includes:
[0159] (1) The number of receiving antennas: if the number of Rx antennas of the RedCap UE is the first value, then it uses the original logical channel ID; if the number of Rx antennas of the RedCap UE is the second value, then it uses the newly introduced logical channel ID; the number of Rx antennas is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0160] (2) The working mode supported by the terminal. For example, if the working mode supported by the RedCap UE is the first value, it uses the original logical channel ID. If the working mode supported by the RedCap UE is the second value, it uses the newly introduced logical channel ID. The working mode includes half-duplex, full-duplex FD, and others.
[0161] (3) Whether the terminal needs coverage enhancement, for example, if the RedCap UE wants the network to use the coverage enhancement method for scheduling later, then the new logical channel ID is used; otherwise, the original logical channel ID is used. The criteria for the RedCap UE to determine whether coverage is needed in the subsequent scheduling process can be configured by the network and / or predefined and / or implemented by the UE.
[0162] (4) The modulation order level or maximum modulation coding level supported by the terminal. For example, if the maximum modulation order supported by the RedCap UE in FR1 is the first value, it uses the original logical channel ID. If the maximum supported modulation order supported by the RedCap UE in FR1 is the second value, it uses the new logical channel ID. The maximum modulation order supported by the RedCap UE in FR1 includes 64QAM, 256QAM, and others.

[0164] (6) The latency requirements of the triggering event for the terminal to enter the connected state. For example, if the UE receives a paging and the reason carried in the paging is an emergency service or voice service, which requires the latency to be as low as possible, then the UE uses the newly introduced logical channel ID; otherwise, it uses the original logical channel ID.
[0165] (7) The maximum transmission rate supported by the terminal. If the current maximum transmission rate supported by the UE is higher than the threshold, the new logical channel ID shall be used; otherwise, the original logical channel ID shall be used.
[0166] (8) The minimum required transmission rate for the current UE;
[0167] (9) Network configuration, for example, the network instructs the UE to report additional information through an indication message. If the UE receives the indication message, the newly introduced logical channel ID is used. If the UE does not receive the indication message, the original logical channel ID is used. The additional information includes: the number of Rx, the supported operating mode, the channel quality, the modulation order, whether coverage enhancement is required, the cell quality, the delay requirement, and the maximum / minimum transmission rate.

[0170] (1) Two newly introduced LCID+legacy RRC messages, where the additional information indicates whether the newly introduced LCID is used;
[0171] (2) A new LCID + a new MAC CE + legacy RRC message, that is, the newly introduced LCID corresponds to a new MAC CE, and the new MAC CE carries an auxiliary message;
[0172] (3) legacy LCID + new 64-bit RRC message (setup-request and resume-request), applicable to non-full I-RNTI cases. The legacy LCID is the LCID corresponding to the current 64-bit RRC message. The new 64-bit RRC message is the legacy 48-bit RRC message with a new IE added to indicate auxiliary messages.
[0173] (4) New LCID + new RRC message; the new RRC message is larger than the legacy RRC message, that is, relative to the legacy RRC message, the new RRC message should add a new IE to indicate additional information;
[0174] Embodiment 3 of the present invention: Normal UE / Non-RedCap UE uses the newly introduced logical channel ID
[0175] 1. If the serving cell uses an MSG1-based solution

[0191] (1) The number of receiving antennas reported by the terminal;
[0192] (2) The working mode supported by the terminal reported by the terminal;

[0195] (5) The serving cell quality reported by the terminal as measured by the terminal.
