[0965] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the described embodiments of the present invention fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0966] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a schematic flowchart of an information communication method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method is applied to a network - side device and includes the following steps:
[0967] Step 21: Send the first downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a first radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) to the terminal. The first DCI is used to indicate whether the control information of a multicast service and / or a broadcast service is updated or the relevant updated information;
[0968] Wherein, the control information includes the configuration information of the multicast service and / or the broadcast service.
[0969] In the embodiment of the present invention, by using DCI to indicate the update or non-update of the control information of the multicast service and / or the broadcast service, the terminal can be accelerated to obtain the update information of the multicast control channel (MCCH), and the accurate multicast and / or broadcast data can be obtained more quickly, meeting the requirements of low latency. It can be applied to multiple 5G application scenarios.
[0970] Optionally, the configuration information of the one multicast service and / or broadcast service includes at least one of the following items:
[0971] A list of temporary mobile group identities (TMGIs);
[0972] The session ID (Session ID) corresponding to the TMGI in the list of TMGIs;
[0973] The group RNTI (G-RNTI) corresponding to the TMGI in the list of TMGIs;

[0979] Uplink resource configuration for reporting channel state information (CSI) corresponding to the TMGI in the list of TMGIs.
[0980] Of course, in addition to including at least one of the above, the configuration information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service on the MCCH may further include at least one of the synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel signal block (or synchronization signal block) (Synchronization Signal and PBCH block, SSB, that is, SS / PBCH Block, including PSS (primary synchronization signal), SSS (secondary synchronization signal) and PBCH (physical broadcast channel), and can also be referred to as synchronization signal / broadcast channel block), channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information Reference Signal, CSI-RS), transmission configuration indicator (Transmission Configuration Indicator, TCI), and beam corresponding to the TMGI in the list of TMGIs.
[0981] Among them, PBCH is Physical Broadcast Channel. SSB is Synchronization Signal and PBCH block (abbreviation: SSB).
[0982] Optionally, the first DCI is used to indicate at least one of the following:
[0983] The control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service has changed;
[0984] Whether the control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service has changed;
[0985] The changed control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service;
[0986] The type of the changed control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service;
[0987] Resource information for reading the changed control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service.
[0988] Optionally, when the first DCI is used to indicate that the control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service has changed, the first DCI is further used to indicate at least one of the following:
[0989] The configuration information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service has changed;
[0990] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from the single-cell point-to-multipoint (SC-PTM) transmission mode to the multi-cell point-to-multipoint transmission mode (i.e., the MBMS transmission mode).
[0991] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from the multi-cell point-to-multipoint transmission mode to the single-cell point-to-multipoint transmission mode.
[0992] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from the point-to-multipoint transmission mode to the point-to-point transmission mode.
[0993] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from the point-to-point transmission mode to the point-to-multipoint transmission mode.
[0994] The multicast or broadcast service in which the control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes.
[0995] A new group of multicast services and / or broadcast services is added.
[0996] An existing group of multicast services and / or broadcast services is deleted.
[0997] An existing group of multicast services and / or broadcast services is updated.
[0998] Close or open the HARQ feedback of the multicast service and / or broadcast service.
[0999] Open or close the CSI feedback of the multicast service and / or broadcast service.
[1000] In the embodiments of the present invention, one or more of the above information can be indicated in a scheduling unit (e.g., 1 time slot).
[1001] For example, when a cell has a single-cell multicast control channel (SC-MCCH), regarding the update of the SC-MCCH information, it can be implemented in a PDCCH, without using the notification period and modification period of the prior art to implement the update method of the SC-MCCH information. The specific method is as follows:
[1002] Use a field in the DCI of the PDCCH to indicate the MCCH state. This message can be scrambled with a new RNTI or continue to use the SC-RNTI for scrambling.
[1003] The MCCH state Indicator–2 bits is determined according to Table 1 below:
[1004] Table 1
[1005] 01 The configuration of MCCH has not changed 10 The configuration of MCCH has changed 11 Optimization Whether the MCCH resource indicated by this DCI carries change information
[1006] Or: MCCH status Indicator – 4 bits is determined according to Table 2 below:
[1007] Table 2
[1008] 0001 The configuration of MCCH has not changed 0010 The configuration of MCCH has changed 0011-1110 Identification information of the changed multicast service 1111 Optimization Whether the MCCH resource indicated by this DCI carries change information
[1009] If it is 11 in Table 1 or 1111 in Table 2, Messages – 8. If it is 01 or 0001, this field is reserved and the UE can ignore it:
[1010] Table 3: MCCH Status Change Messages
[1011] Bit Short Message 1 The transmission resource of MTCH has changed 2 The transmission of SC-PTM becomes the transmission of MBMS 3 The transmission of SC-Ptm becomes the transmission of unicast 4 The period of MTCH changes / offset changes / MCS / TB changes 5 Add TMGI 6 Turn off / turn on HARQ feedback 7 Turn on CSI feedback
[1012] Or:
[1013] Table 4: MCCH Status Change Messages
[1014] Bit Short Message m-bit bitmap Identification information of the changed multicast service 1 The transmission resource of MTCH has changed 2 The transmission of SC-PTM becomes the transmission of MBMS 3 The transmission of SC-Ptm becomes the transmission of unicast 4 The period of MTCH changes / offset changes / MCS / TB changes 5 Add TMGI 6 Turn off / turn on HARQ feedback 7 Turn on CSI feedback
[1015] Wherein, MCS: Modulation and coding scheme, modulation and coding scheme; TB: Transport Block, transport block.
[1016] Then, the UE determines whether the information of the SC-MCCH has changed according to the content in this DCI. Optionally, which multicast service's SC-MCCH information has changed, and / or the specific change content; and where the changed SC-MCCH information can be read.
[1017] Finally, the UE reads the SC-PTM configuration information according to the changed SC-MCCH information.
[1018] For another example, when there are multiple SC-MCCHs in a cell:
[1019] Step 1: The SC-RNTIs of different groups are different, and the correspondence between different multicast services and SC-RNTIs is configured through RRC messages;
[1020] Step 2: Regarding the update of the SC-MCCH information, it can be implemented in a PDCCH. Instead of using the notification period and modification period of the existing technology to update the SC-MCCH information, the specific method is as follows:
[1021] Use a field in the DCI of PDCCH to indicate the MCCH status. This message can be scrambled with a new RNTI or continue to use the SC-RNTI for scrambling.
[1022] MCCH status Indicator – 2 bits is determined according to the following table:
[1023] 01 The configuration of MCCH has not changed 10 The configuration of MCCH has changed 11 Whether the MCCH resource indicated by this DCI carries change information
[1024] If it is 11, Messages – 8 bits. If it is 01, this field is reserved and the UE can ignore it:
[1025] Table 6.5-1: MCCH status change Messages
[1026] Bit Short Message 1 The transmission resource of MTCH has changed 2 The transmission of SC-PTM becomes the transmission of MBMS 3 The transmission of SC-Ptm becomes the transmission of unicast 4 The period of MTCH changes / offset changes / MCS / TB changes 5 Add TMGI 6 Turn off / turn on HARQ feedback 7 Turn on CSI feedback
[1027] Then, the UE determines whether the information of the SC-MCCH has changed according to the content in this DCI. Optionally, which specific multicast service's SC-MCCH information has changed, and / or the specific change content; and where the changed SC-MCCH information can be read.
[1028] Optionally, the first DCI is used to indicate at least one of the following:
[1029] The configuration information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service has changed;
[1030] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from single-cell single-point-to-multipoint transmission mode to multi-cell single-point-to-multipoint transmission mode;
[1031] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from multi-cell single-point-to-multipoint transmission mode to single-cell single-point-to-multipoint transmission mode;
[1032] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from single-point-to-multipoint transmission mode to single-point-to-single-point transmission mode;
[1033] The transmission mode of the multicast service and / or broadcast service changes from single-point-to-single-point transmission mode to single-point-to-multipoint transmission mode;
[1034] The multicast or broadcast service whose control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service has changed;
[1035] A new group of multicast services and / or broadcast services has been added;
[1036] An existing group of multicast services and / or broadcast services has been deleted;
[1037] Updated the group of existing multicast services and / or broadcast services;
[1038] Closed or enabled the HARQ feedback of the multicast service and / or broadcast service;
[1039] Enabled or disabled the CSI feedback of the multicast service and / or broadcast service.
[1040] Optionally, after sending the first DCI scrambled with the first RNTI to the terminal, it further includes:
[1041] When the first DCI includes information indicating a change in the control information for the multicast service and / or broadcast service, and / or:
[1042] When including information indicating a change in the control information resource carrying the change information for the multicast service and / or broadcast service, send the change information of the control information for the multicast service and / or broadcast service.
[1043] Optionally, the method further includes:
[1044] Broadcast each piece of the control information for the multiple multicast services and / or broadcast services; or,
[1045] Broadcast the control information for the first multicast service and / or broadcast service among the control information for the multiple multicast services and / or broadcast services, and the control information for the other multicast services and / or broadcast services among the control information for the multiple multicast services and / or broadcast services is the same as the control information for the first multicast service and / or broadcast service;
[1046] Wherein, the control information includes at least one of a repetition period, an offset, a starting subframe, and a modification period.
[1047] In an embodiment of the present invention, if there are multiple SC-MCCHs in a cell, such as 10 SC-MCCHs. One method is that the system message still broadcasts the scheduling information such as the repetition period, offset, starting subframe, and modification period of each set of SC-MCCH respectively; or,
[1048] For the scheduling information of multiple multicast groups, if the scheduling information parameters such as the repetition period, offset, starting subframe, and modification period of the transmission information are the same, then broadcast one set and carry the multicast group information;
[1049] Alternatively, if the repetition periods of the transmission information for different groups are the same, then to maintain good forward compatibility and save signaling overhead, the system message does not broadcast multiple sets of repetition periods, offsets, starting subframes, and modification periods of the SC-MCCH; the system message still only broadcasts a set of scheduling information such as the repetition period, offset, starting subframe, and modification period of the SC-MCCH; the UE derives the time when the SC-MCCH of the corresponding group appears based on the ID numbers of different groups.
[1050] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 which is a schematic flowchart of an information communication method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method is applied to a network-side device and includes the following steps:

[1052] Wherein, the control information includes configuration information of the multicast service and / or the broadcast service.
[1053] In the embodiment of the present invention, by using DCI to indicate the update or non-update of the control information of the multicast service and / or the broadcast service, it is possible to accelerate the terminal's acquisition of the update information of the Multicast Control Channel (MCCH), obtain accurate multicast and / or broadcast data more quickly, and meet the requirements of low latency.

[1258] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 which is a schematic flowchart of a method for receiving information provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method is applied to a terminal and includes the following steps:
[1259] Step 71: Determine the monitoring opportunity of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH of one or more multicast messages, and receive multicast information at the monitoring opportunity of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH of the multicast message;
[1260] Here, the opportunity of one multicast message is the monitoring opportunity of the PDCCH of a group of multicast messages;

[1271] DCI for scheduling information of update information of control channel of multicast service.
[1272] The multicast message is the content carried in the PDSCH, the multicast information refers to the content monitored, and the terminal can find the transmission resource of the multicast message by using the multicast information.
[1273] In the present invention, the "receiving" in "determining the monitoring opportunity of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH of one or more multicast messages and receiving multicast information at the monitoring opportunity of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH of the multicast message" also means "monitoring" or "detecting".
[1274] In the embodiments of the present invention, regarding the monitoring opportunity (MO) of monitoring multicast scheduling information and / or multicast service information, especially for terminals in the idle state and the connected state, the public search space is used to receive the multicast scheduling information and / or multicast service information. The terminal only needs to wake up to monitor the PDCCH and the corresponding PDSCH at the corresponding scheduling time slot, without continuously monitoring the PDCCH of the SC-RNTI, reducing power consumption.
[1275] Taking the monitoring of multicast scheduling information as an example, the terminal monitors the multicast scheduling information within a monitoring opportunity (MO) of multicast scheduling information in each period of reading the multicast scheduling information. The MO is a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities, which can include multiple time slots (for example, subframes or Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols), in which the DCI of the multicast scheduling message can be sent.
[1276] Optionally, the determining the monitoring opportunity of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH of one or more multicast messages includes:
[1277] Determine the listening opportunity of the PDCCH for the multicast message according to the search space of the multicast message or the set of search spaces of the multicast message;
[1278] Determine the search space of the multicast message by at least one of the following methods:
[1279] The UE reads the information of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH configured for the search space of the multicast message in the PDCCH common configuration configured by the network through the RRC message; wherein, this common search space is for the DCI format scrambled by the multicast-RNTI on the primary cell with Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC);
[1280] The UE reads the search space identified as the common type in the PDCCH dedicated configuration configured by the RRC message, and it is for the DCI format scrambled by the multicast-RNTI on the primary cell with CRC;
[1281] If the UE does not find the information of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH configured for the search space of the multicast message in the RRC message, the association relationship between the PDCCH listening opportunity of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH and the SSB block index is the same as the association relationship of the PDCCH listening opportunity for the common search space of type 0;
[1282] Find out the CCE aggregation level in the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH and the number of PDCCH candidates for each CCE aggregation level by looking up a table;
[1283] Wherein, the information of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH, and / or the information of the search space identified as the common type, includes at least one of the following information:
[1284] Search space label;
[1285] The first indication information is used to indicate the first time symbol in the control resource set in a slot of a PDCCH listening opportunity for a multicast message;
[1286] The second indication information is used to indicate the listening period and time offset of a PDCCH listening opportunity for a multicast message;
[1287] The third indication information is used to indicate the start symbol and / or duration in a listening period of a PDCCH listening opportunity for a multicast message;
[1288] The fourth indication information indicates, in the form of a bitmap, a monitoring time slot and / or a monitoring time symbol of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for a multicast message;
[1289] The fifth indication information indicates, in the form of a bitmap, a monitoring time symbol in a time slot of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for a multicast message;
[1290] The sixth indication information is used to indicate a start symbol and / or a duration of a time slot of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for a multicast message;
[1291] The seventh indication information is used to indicate an index of a control resource set associated with this search space.
[1292] Optionally, the PDCCH monitoring occasions of one or more multicast messages form a multicast message occasion.
[1293] The following is an example to illustrate the method for determining the MF and MO for monitoring a multicast scheduling message:
[1294] Define a set of PDCCH candidates for the terminal to monitor according to the PDCCH search space set. The search space set can be a common search space set or a search space set specific to the terminal. The terminal monitors PDCCH candidates in one or more of the following search space sets. Add a common search space set of TypeN-PDCCH configured with X-SearchSpace in PDCCH-ConfigCommon (PDCCH common configuration); wherein, this common search space is used for the DCI format configuration of the CRC scrambled by the multicast-RNTI on the primary cell.
[1295] If the higher layer parameter MB-SearchSpace for the type x-PDCCH common search space set is not provided to the UE, the association relationship between the PDCCH monitoring occasion of the type X-PDCCH common search space set and the SS / PBCH block index is the same as that for the TYPE0-PDCCH common monitoring occasion. Set the TYPE0-PDCCH common search space. The aggregation level of the control channel element (CCE) in the X-PDCCH common search space set and the number of PDCCH candidates for each CCE aggregation level can be found by looking up a table.
[1296] Based on the first PDCCH monitoring occasion configured by the protocol-specified X-SearchSpace and RRC signaling, it is used to determine the PDCCH monitoring occasion for listening to multicast scheduling information. And / or, whether the PDCCH monitoring occasion configured by the network for multicast scheduling is the same as that of RMSI.
[1297] For the monitoring time slot and / or monitoring time symbol indicating a PDCCH monitoring occasion for a multicast message in the form of a bitmap, for example, if a
[1298] Monitoring-periodicity-PDCCH-slot is 2, and in each slot, there are 8 PDCCH monitoring occasions (MO). Specifically, the starting OFDM time symbol and which specific symbols need to be monitored can be defined by RRC, such as 0011110111100000111101111000, then symbols #2, 3, 4, 5; #7, 8, 9, 10 need to be monitored;
[1299] Or:
[1300] If a Monitoring-periodicity-PDCCH-slot is 2, and in each slot, there are 4 PDCCH monitoring occasions. In the first slot that needs to be monitored, the symbols are #2, 3, 4, 5; in the second slot that needs to be monitored, the symbols are #7, 8, 9, 10. Specifically, the starting OFDM time symbol and which specific symbols need to be monitored can be defined by RRC, such as 0011110000000000000001111000).
[1301] Optionally, the method further includes:
[1302] Determine the multicast scheduling radio frame (MF), where MF is a system frame that contains one or more MOs or the starting points of MOs.

[1304] Optionally, the method includes:
[1305] Select one or more beams for receiving multicast scheduling information.
[1306] Associate with beam information: SSB / CSI-RS.
[1307] In multi-beam operation, the UE may assume that the same multicast scheduling message is repeated in all transmitted beams. Therefore, the UE can select one or more beams for receiving the multicast scheduling message.
[1308] Optionally, the timing of a multicast message is the monitoring timing of the PDCCH of Y multicast messages, where Y is determined according to the actual number of SSBs transmitted by the cell.
[1309] The MO is a set of Y consecutive PDCCH monitoring occasions, where Y is determined according to the actual number of SSBs transmitted by the cell.
[1310] Optionally, the timing of a multicast message is the monitoring timing of the PDCCH of a set of multicast messages, including:
[1311] The Z-th PDCCH monitoring occasion in the timing of the multicast message corresponds to the Z-th transmitted SSB, where Z is a positive integer.
[1312] Among them, the Z-th PDCCH monitoring occasion, that is, the timing of a multicast message, is composed of the monitoring occasions of the PDCCH of Y multicast messages. Then the Z-th PDCCH monitoring occasion is the Z-th PDCCH monitoring occasion among the monitoring occasions of the PDCCH of these Y multicast messages.

[1360] DCI for scheduling information of update information of the control channel of multicast services.
[1361] In the present invention, the "receiving" in "determining the monitoring occasion of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH for one or more multicast messages and receiving multicast information on the monitoring occasion of the physical downlink control channel PDCCH for multicast messages" also means "monitoring" or "detecting".
[1362] In an embodiment of the present invention, regarding the monitoring occasion of the PDCCH for monitoring multicast scheduling information and / or multicast service information, especially for terminals in the idle state and the connected state, the common search space is used to receive the multicast scheduling information and / or multicast service information. The terminal only needs to wake up to monitor the PDCCH and the corresponding PDSCH in the corresponding scheduling time slot, without continuously monitoring the PDCCH with the multicast RNTI, reducing power consumption.
[1363] Determining the monitoring occasion of the PDCCH for multicast messages according to the search space for multicast messages or the set of search spaces for multicast messages;
[1364] Determining the search space for multicast messages by at least one of the following methods:
[1365] The UE reads the information of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH configured for the search space for multicast messages from the PDCCH common configuration configured by the network through the RRC message; wherein, this common search space is for the DCI format scrambled by the multicast-RNTI for cyclic redundancy check (CRC) on the primary cell;
[1366] The UE reads the search space labeled as the common type in the PDCCH dedicated configuration configured by the RRC message, and it is for the DCI format that is CRC scrambled by the multicast-RNTI on the primary cell;
[1367] If the UE does not find the information of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH configured for the multicast message search space configuration in the RRC message, the association relationship between the PDCCH monitoring occasion of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH and the SSB block index is the same as the association relationship of the PDCCH monitoring occasion of the common search space of type 0;
[1368] Find out the CCE aggregation level in the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH and the number of PDCCH candidates for each CCE aggregation level by looking up the table;
[1369] Among them, the information of the common search space set of the Nth type of PDCCH, and / or the information of the search space labeled as the common type, includes at least one of the following information:
[1370] Search space label;
[1371] The first indication information, which is used to indicate the first time symbol in the control resource set in a slot of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for the multicast message;
[1372] The second indication information, which is used to indicate the monitoring period and time offset of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for the multicast message;
[1373] The third indication information, which is used to indicate the start symbol and / or duration in a monitoring period of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for the multicast message;
[1374] The fourth indication information, which indicates the monitoring time slot and / or monitoring time symbol of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for the multicast message in the form of a bitmap;
[1375] The fifth indication information, which indicates the monitoring time symbol in a time slot of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for the multicast message in the form of a bitmap;
[1376] The sixth indication information, which is used to indicate the start symbol and / or duration of a time slot of a PDCCH monitoring occasion for the multicast message;
[1377] The seventh indication information, which is used to indicate the index of the control resource set associated with this search space.
[1378] A set of PDCCH candidates to be monitored by a terminal is defined according to a PDCCH search space set, and the search space set can be a common search space set or a terminal-specific search space set. The terminal monitors PDCCH candidates in one or more of the following search space sets. Add a common search space set of TypeN-PDCCH with X-SearchSpace configuration in PDCCH-ConfigCommon (PDCCH common configuration); wherein, this common search space is used for the DCI format configuration of the CRC scrambled by the multicast-RNTI on the primary cell.
[1379] If the higher layer parameter MB-SearchSpace for the Type x-PDCCH common search space set is not provided to the UE, the association relationship between the PDCCH monitoring occasion and the SS / PBCH block index for the Type X-PDCCH common search space set is the same as the association for the TYPE0-PDCCH common monitoring occasion. Set the TYPE0-PDCCH common search space. The control channel element (CCE) aggregation level in the X-PDCCH common search space set and the number of PDCCH candidates for each CCE aggregation level can be found by looking up a table.
[1380] According to the first PDCCH monitoring occasion configured by the protocol-specified X-SearchSpace and RRC signaling, it is used to determine the PDCCH monitoring occasion for monitoring multicast scheduling information. And / or, the network configures whether the PDCCH monitoring occasion for multicast scheduling is the same as that of RMSI.
[1381] For the monitoring time slot and / or monitoring time symbol indicating a PDCCH monitoring occasion for a multicast message in the form of a bitmap, for example, if a
[1382] The Monitoring-periodicity-PDCCH-slot is 2. In each slot, there are 8 PDCCH monitoring occasions (MO). Specifically, the starting OFDM time symbol and which specific symbols need to be monitored can be defined by RRC, such as 0011110111100000111101111000, then symbols #2, 3, 4, 5; #7, 8, 9, 10 need to be monitored;
[1383] Or:

In the first slot that needs to be monitored, the symbols are #2, 3, 4, 5; in the second slot that needs to be monitored, the symbols are #7, 8, 9, 10. Specifically, the starting OFDM time symbol and which specific symbols need to be monitored can be defined by RRC, such as (0011110000000000000001111000).
[1385] Optionally, the method includes:

[1387] Associated with beam information: SSB / CSI-RS.
[1388] In multi-beam operation, the UE can assume that the same multicast scheduling message is repeated in all transmitted beams. Therefore, the UE can select one or more beams for receiving the multicast scheduling message.
[1389] Optionally, the timing of a multicast message is the PDCCH monitoring timing of a group of multicast messages, including:
[1390] The timing of a multicast message is the PDCCH monitoring timing of Y multicast messages, where Y is determined according to the actual number of SSBs transmitted in the cell.

[1392] Optionally, the timing of a multicast message is the PDCCH monitoring timing of a group of multicast messages, including:
[1393] The Zth PDCCH monitoring occasion in the timing of the multicast message corresponds to the Zth transmitted SSB, where Z is a positive integer.
[1394] Please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8 which is a schematic flowchart of a method for sending information provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method is applied to a network-side device and includes the following steps:
[1395] Step 81: During the repetition period of the control information of the multicast service and / or the broadcast service, send n pieces of control information of the multicast service and / or the broadcast service to the terminal every t time domain units, where n and t are positive integers.
[1396] In the embodiments of the present invention, the control information of multiple multicast and / or broadcast services can be sent separately, so that the terminal can listen to the corresponding control information at the corresponding sending moment and does not need to receive the control information of all multicast and / or broadcast services.
[1397] In the prior art, all the control information of multicast and / or broadcast is sent in one MCCH. And all the scheduling information of multicast in the prior art is sent in one SC-MCCH. The embodiments of the present invention introduce multiple SC-MCCHs for multicast. The SC-MCCH information of multiple multicasts for network broadcast is generated by a distribution node (Distribute Unit, DU) and then sent to a centralized unit (Centralized Unit, CU) node for broadcasting; before generating the system information related to the SC-MCCH, the DU node needs to obtain from the CU information such as the TMGI, session identifier, interested UEs, and related quality of service (Quality of Service, QoS) related to the multicast service.
[1398] Optionally, before sending n control information of multicast service and / or broadcast service to the terminal every t time domain units within the repetition period of the control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service, it further includes:
[1399] Sending first information to the terminal, where the first information is used to indicate a first sending time, and the first sending time is the sending time of the n control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service within the corresponding time domain unit.
[1400] Optionally, the first information includes at least one of the following information:
[1401] Information used to indicate the start moment of the first sending time;
[1402] Information used to indicate the duration of the first sending time;
[1403] Information used to indicate a first offset, where the first offset is the offset between the first sending time and the position of the RMSI of the SSB.
[1404] Please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 which is a schematic flowchart of a method for receiving information provided by the embodiments of the present invention. The method is applied to a terminal and includes the following steps:
[1405] Step 91: Receiving n control information of multicast service and / or broadcast service sent by a network-side device every t time domain units within the repetition period of the control information of the multicast service and / or broadcast service, where n and t are positive integers.
[1406] In the prior art, all control information for multicast and / or broadcast is sent in one MCCH.
[1407] In an embodiment of the present invention, control information for multiple multicast and / or broadcast services can be sent separately, so that the terminal can listen for the corresponding control information at the corresponding sending moment, and does not need to receive the control information for all multicast and / or broadcast services.
[1408] Optionally, the n pieces of control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services sent by the receiving network-side device every t time domain units within the repetition period of the control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services include:
[1409] Obtain the time domain units corresponding to the control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services within the repetition period;
[1410] Listen for the corresponding control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services in the time domain units.
[1411] Optionally, the time domain unit is calculated according to the following formula:
[1412] SFN mod sc-mcch-RepetitionPeriod = sc-mcch-Offset +
[1413] (sc-mcch-RepetitionPeriod) divided by
[1414] SFN is the serial number of the time domain unit corresponding to the control information for the first multicast service and / or broadcast service, sc-mcch-RepetitionPeriod is the size of the repetition period, sc-mcch-Offset is the offset of the starting time domain unit of the first repetition period, M is the total number of pieces of control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services sent within the repetition period, group_ID is the serial number of the multicast service and / or broadcast service, and the group_ID is determined according to the sending order of the control information for the multicast service and / or broadcast service within the repetition period.
[1415] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the network-side device sends n pieces of control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services every t time domain units within the repetition period of the control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services, the terminal can deduce the time when the SC-MCCH of the corresponding group appears according to the ID numbers of different groups, and thus only receive at the time when the SC-MCCH appears, and can not receive at other times.
[1416] The time domain unit may be a radio frame.
[1417] Optionally, the n pieces of control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services sent by the receiving network-side device every t time domain units within the repetition period of the control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services include:
[1418] Receiving first information sent by the network-side device, where the first information is used to indicate a second transmission time, and the second transmission time is the transmission time of the n pieces of control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services within the corresponding time domain unit;
[1419] Receiving the n pieces of control information for multicast services and / or broadcast services at the second transmission time.
[1420] In an embodiment of the present invention, the terminal further obtains specific time slots and / or symbols in a radio frame that need to be monitored. A specific Monitoring-symbols-PDCCH-within-slot in a radio frame may indicate the first time symbol in a control resource set within a time slot for PDCCH monitoring.
[1421] If a Monitoring-periodicity-PDCCH-slot is 2, there are 8 PDCCH monitoring occasions (MO) in each slot. Specifically, the starting OFDM time symbol and specific symbols to be monitored can be defined by RRC, such as 0011110111100000111101111000, then symbols #2, 3, 4, 5; #7, 8, 9, 10 need to be monitored;
[1422] Or:
[1423] If a Monitoring-periodicity-PDCCH-slot is 2, there are 4 PDCCH monitoring occasions in each slot. The symbols in the first slot to be monitored are #2, 3, 4, 5; the symbols in the second slot to be monitored are #7, 8, 9, 10. Specifically, the starting OFDM time symbol and specific symbols to be monitored can be defined by RRC, such as
[1424] 0011110000000000000001111000).
[1425] Optionally, the first information includes at least one of the following information:
[1426] Information used to indicate the starting moment of the second transmission time;
[1427] Information for indicating the duration of the second transmission time
[1428] Information for indicating a first offset, where the first offset is the offset between the second transmission time and the position of the RMSI of the SSB
[1429] Specifically, a specific listening opportunity within a radio frame can be determined by defining a start symbol and a duration. Among them, the duration can be defined in CORESET-time-duration (control resource set duration). For example, the start symbols are #2 and #7, and the duration is 4 symbols. Alternatively, the position of the SC-MCCH can be deduced by defining the offset from the position of the RMSI of the SSB and based on the period and position information of the SSB sent by the RRC
[1430] Similarly, this method is also applicable to UEs in the idle state and the inactive state to read the SC-PTM information
[1431] Please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 which is a schematic flowchart of a resource configuration method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method is applied to a network-side device and includes the following steps
[1432] Step 101: Send configuration information to a terminal
[1433] Send configuration information to the terminal. The configuration information is used to indicate first symbol information and / or second symbol information in a time slot. The first symbol is a symbol for sending unicast information, and the second symbol is a symbol for sending multicast information and / or broadcast information
[1434] The first symbol information is used to indicate the number of time symbols and / or the number of PRBs occupied by the first symbol
[1435] The second symbol information is used to indicate the number of time symbols and / or the number of PRBs occupied by the second symbol
[1436] Optionally, the configuration information is further used to indicate that a reference signal is inserted every y symbols in the time slot; and / or, the configuration information is further used to indicate that a reference signal is inserted every x subcarriers in the frequency domain corresponding to the time slot, where the reference signal is a reference signal for multicast and / or broadcast
[1437] Optionally, the reference signal can be an SSB of a cell or a set of SSBs, or an SSB or a set of SSBs shared by a multicast and / or broadcast area; and / or
[1438] Optionally, the reference signal may be a unified CSI-RS or a set of CSI-RSs for terminals within a multicast and / or broadcast group, or a CSI-RS or a set of CSI-RSs shared by a multicast and / or broadcast area;
[1439] Optionally, information about the reference signal needs to be exchanged between different network nodes;
[1440] Wherein, x and y are positive integers, x is determined according to the subcarrier spacing, and y is determined according to the subcarrier spacing;
[1441] The unicast information includes at least one of the reference signal corresponding to the unicast, control signaling, and data;
[1442] The multicast information includes at least one of the reference signal corresponding to the multicast, control signaling, and data;
[1443] The broadcast information includes at least one of the reference signal corresponding to the broadcast, control signaling, and data;
[1444] Optionally, x and y are positive integers, x is determined according to the subcarrier spacing, and y is further determined according to the measurement accuracy.
[1445] Currently in the MBMS system, the MCCH message can only be sent through a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) subframe, and the MBSFN subframe is a dedicated subframe that can only send one data block. The UE can obtain the MCCH message by reading the MBSFN subframe at the corresponding time point. Since the MBSFN subframe can only transmit one data block, and one data block can be used to transmit the MCCH message or other data other than the MCCH message. However, if the MCCH message cannot occupy all the resources of the MBSFN subframe, no other data can be sent on the MBSFN subframe, resulting in waste of resources.
[1446] In addition, MBSFN is divided into two types: MBSFN on dedicated carriers and MBSFN on hybrid carriers with unicast. The design of MBSFN reference signals (RS) has special requirements. In a radio frame of a hybrid carrier MBSFN system, usually most resources are used for unicast services, and only individual subframes are used for MBSFN services. A typical scenario is that an isolated MBSFN subframe is inserted within consecutive unicast subframes, which makes it impossible for the terminal receiving this MBSFN subframe to perform interpolation channel estimation between the RSs of adjacent subframes as when receiving unicast signals. Therefore, the RS design of MBSFN must be able to support channel estimation within an isolated subframe. In the embodiments of the present invention, the present invention breaks through the method in LTE that uses the MBSFN subframe as the minimum design unit and adopts the MBSFN time slot as the minimum design unit. Because although 5G NR supports multiple subcarrier spacings, the lengths of the radio frame and subframe are the same under different subcarrier spacing configurations. The radio frame length is 10 ms, and the subframe length is 1 ms. The number of time slots included in each subframe is different. In the case of normal cyclic prefix (CP), the number of symbols included in each time slot is the same, and it is 14. That is to say, the number of time symbols included in a subframe of NR is different, but the number of time symbols included in each time slot is the same. Among the 14 time symbols, b time symbols are taken out to transmit unicast PDCCH, CSI-RS, and demodulation reference signal (DM-RS), and then 14 - b time symbols are used to transmit the reference signal, control channel, and data channel of MBMSFN. b can be determined according to the requirements of measurement accuracy, the bandwidth size of different frequency bands, and the multicast service load. Moreover, the positions of these b time symbols can be defined as fixed, such as the first b, the last b, or the middle b, or the specific positions can be indicated by signaling.
[1447]
[1448] When terminals in adjacent cells perform neighbor cell measurements, they can measure only the unicast reference signals of these b time symbols.
[1449] The first and second symbols in the MBSFN subframe adopt the normal CP and retain the unicast pilots, which can be used for the transmission of channels such as PDCCH, physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH), and physical hybrid ARQ indicator channel (PHICH). The other symbols in the subframe are used for MBSFN signal transmission.
[1450] On the other hand, according to a specific subcarrier spacing, an MBSFN reference signal (RS) is inserted every x subcarriers in the frequency domain, and 1 column of RS is inserted every y OFDM symbols in the time domain.
[1451] The measurement accuracy, SCS, and PRB width are different, resulting in different intervals for inserting RS under different SCSs. For a wider SCS interval, the density of RS is relatively sparse. Regarding the density of reference signals in subcarriers. The density of reference signals is also added in the time symbol aspect. RS can be used for demodulating channels in 5G MBMS.
[1452] Since multi-cell combination greatly increases the number of multipaths, making the frequency selectivity of MBSFN signals much greater than that of unicast signals, a greater RS frequency-domain density is required. However, the time symbol lengths for different subcarrier spacings are also different.
[1453] Therefore, x, y, and b all have corresponding relationships with the values of the subcarrier spacing;
[1454] This corresponding relationship can be determined in the form of a table;
[1455] Or, it is configured through RRC messages / MAC CE / PDCCH signaling;
[1456] Or, define a table of multiple corresponding relationships and corresponding index numbers, and then configure the index numbers through RRC messages / MAC CE / PDCCH signaling;
[1457] Or, configure a table of multiple corresponding relationships and corresponding index numbers in the RRC signaling, and then configure the index numbers through MAC CE / PDCCH signaling.
[1458] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 which is a schematic flowchart of a resource configuration method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method is applied to a terminal and includes the following steps:
[1459] Step 111: Receive configuration information sent by a network-side device,
[1460] and send the configuration information to the terminal. The configuration information is used to indicate first symbol information and / or second symbol information in a time slot. The first symbol is a symbol for sending unicast information, and the second symbol is a symbol for sending multicast information and / or broadcast information;
[1461] The first symbol information is used to indicate the number of time symbols and / or the number of PRBs occupied by the first symbol;
[1462] The second symbol information is used to indicate the number of time symbols and / or the number of PRBs occupied by the second symbol.
[1463] Optionally, the configuration information is further used to indicate that a reference signal is inserted in every y symbols in the time slot; and / or, the configuration information is further used to indicate that a reference signal is inserted in every x subcarriers in the frequency domain corresponding to the time slot, where the reference signal is a reference signal for multicast and / or broadcast;
[1464] Optionally, the reference signal may be an SSB of a cell or a set of SSBs, or is an SSB or a set of SSBs shared by a multicast and / or broadcast area; and / or:
[1465] Optionally, the reference signal may be a unified CSI-RS or a set of CSI-RSs for terminals within a multicast and / or broadcast group, or is a CSI-RS or a set of CSI-RSs shared by a multicast and / or broadcast area;
[1466] Optionally, information about the reference signal needs to be exchanged between different network nodes;
[1467] Wherein, x and y are positive integers, x is determined according to the subcarrier spacing, and y is determined according to the subcarrier spacing;
[1468] The unicast information includes at least one of a reference signal corresponding to unicast, control signaling, and data;
[1469] The multicast information includes at least one of a reference signal corresponding to multicast, control signaling, and data;
[1470] The broadcast information includes at least one of a reference signal corresponding to broadcast, control signaling, and data;
[1471] Optionally, x and y are positive integers, x is determined according to the subcarrier spacing, and y is further determined according to the measurement accuracy.

[1473] Step 121: Receive resource configuration information sent by a network-side device, where the resource configuration information is resource configuration information for multicast services and / or broadcast services of an adjacent cell;
[1474] Step 122: Measure or not measure the resources corresponding to the resource configuration information.
[1475] In an embodiment of the present invention, the base station and / or cell exchange the configuration information of MBSFN; or the base station and / or cell obtain the configuration information of the MBSFN of the neighboring cell from the network management. Then, the base station and / or cell inform the terminal of the configuration information of the MBSFN of the neighboring cell through signaling, so that there is no need to send unicast signal and channel information on the unit resource block of MBSFN. When measuring the signal quality of the neighboring cell, the terminal ignores this MBSFN resource, or, if the terminal has an MBMS service, only measures the MBSFN resource.
[1476] Optionally, the resource corresponding to the measurement or non-measurement of the resource configuration information includes:
[1477] If the terminal only has a unicast service, it does not measure the resource corresponding to the resource configuration information;
[1478] If the terminal only has a multicast service and / or a broadcast service, it measures the resource corresponding to the resource configuration information;
[1479] If the terminal has both a unicast service and a multicast service and / or a broadcast service, it measures the resource corresponding to the resource configuration information.
[1480] In an embodiment of the present invention, the terminal can measure the corresponding MBSFN resource for a specific MBMS service. If the UE has a unicast service, the UE ignores this MBSFN resource when measuring the signal quality of the neighboring cell. If the UE has both a unicast service and an MBMS service, it reports the measurement information of the two types of resources respectively.
[1481] Configure the unicast service on a dedicated active BWP, configure the multicast service on the initial BWP or a BWP related to the initial BWP, and indicate the association relationship between the BWP for sending the multicast service and the initial BWP in the system message, such as the offset relationship on Corset and Searchspace.
