[0002] The New Radio (NR) 52.6-71GHz project introduced multi-slot Physical Downlink Shared channel (PDSCH) scheduling, which means that one downlink control information (DCI) schedules multiple time slots of PDSCH.

[0003] The method of sending back a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) message for each Code Block Group (CBG) is called CBG-based HARQ-ACK feedback.

[0067] The embodiments of this disclosure will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation details.

[0068] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with those of this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0069] It should be noted that one embodiment of this disclosure may include multiple steps; for ease of description, these steps are numbered; however, these numbers are not a limitation on the execution time slots or execution order between the steps; these steps can be implemented in any order, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0070] HARQ-ACKs for multiple PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI are fed back in the same PUCCH. The time slot of the PUCCH for HARQ-ACK feedback for these multiple PDSCHs is determined based on k1 in the DCI scheduling and the time slot position of the last PDSCH.

[0071] A Transport Block (TB) can be divided into one or more Blocks (CBs), and multiple CBs can be further divided into several Block Groups (CBGs). For example, one TB can be divided into eight CBs, and these eight CBs can be divided into four CBGs, with each CBG containing two CBs. Therefore, if 1 bit of HARQ-ACK information is fed back for each CBG, a total of 4 bits of HARQ-ACK information needs to be fed back. Using CBG feedback can improve the efficiency of HARQ retransmission, that is, only the erroneous CBG needs to be retransmitted, instead of retransmitting the entire TB; however, this adds HARQ-ACK overhead.

[0072] When using DCI to schedule PDSCH, the DAI field in the DCI can be used for counting. DAI includes Counter DAI (C-DAI) and Total DAI (T-DAI). When the User Equipment (UE) is configured with only a single carrier, only C-DAI needs to be counted. When the UE is configured with multiple carriers, both C-DAI and T-DAI need to be counted. In established practices, DAI is counted according to the number of scheduled DCIs; that is, for each DCI scheduled by the network device (which can schedule one or more PDSCHs), C-DAI increments by 1; and when multiple carriers are configured, T-DAI also increments by 1.

[0073] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0074] Step 101: Receive the first configuration information and the second configuration information;

[0075] Step 102: Based on the first configuration information and the second configuration information, generate the HARQ-ACK codebook for the feedback physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

[0076] Step 103: Send the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device;

[0077] The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via physical uplink control channel PDCCH, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure code block group (CBG) transmission.

[0078] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure CBG transmission. Based on the first and second configuration information, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for the feedback PDSCH and sends the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device.

[0079] In one implementation, the user equipment generates a Type2 HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the first configuration information and the second configuration information.

[0080] In one embodiment, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information from the network device, determines the current transmission scenario or transmission scenario group based on the first configuration information and second configuration information, determines the number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI based on the current transmission scenario or transmission scenario group, generates a HARQ-ACK codebook accordingly, and sends the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device.

[0081] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0082] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0083] Step 201: Receive the first configuration information and the second configuration information;

[0084] Step 202: In response to the first configuration information indicating configuration of multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling and the second configuration information indicating configuration of CBG transmission, determine that the number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each downlink control information (DCI) is the maximum value between M and N, and generate the HARQ-ACK codebook based on the number of HARQ-ACK information bits.

[0085] Step 203: Send the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device;

[0086] The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via physical uplink control channel PDCCH, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure code block group (CBG) transmission.

[0087] Wherein, M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, N is the maximum number of PDSCHs corresponding to the PDCCH scheduling of multi-slot PDSCH transmission, and the maximum number of PDSCHs is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined according to the network device configuration, or the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined by the protocol, and M and N are both positive integers greater than zero.

[0088] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates configuration of multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates configuration of CBG transmission; in response to the received first and second configuration information, the user equipment determines that the number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI is the maximum value between M and N, and generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the determined number of HARQ-ACK information bits; then, it sends the generated HARQ-ACK codebook. Here, M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, and N is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled for a DCI as determined by the protocol.

[0089] In one embodiment, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates configuration for multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates configuration for CBG transmission; in response to the received first and second configuration information, the user equipment determines that the number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI is the maximum value between M and N, and generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the determined number of HARQ-ACK information bits; then, it sends the generated HARQ-ACK codebook. Here, M is the maximum value of the number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, and N is the maximum value of the number of PDSCHs scheduled for a DCI determined according to the network device configuration.

[0090] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates configuration for multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates configuration for CBG transmission. In response to the received first and second configuration information, the user equipment determines that the number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI is the maximum value between M and N, and generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the determined number of HARQ-ACK information bits; then, it sends the generated HARQ-ACK codebook. Here, M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, and N is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled for a DCI as indicated in the Time Domain Resource Allocation (TDRA) table sent by the network device via RRC signaling.

[0091] In one implementation, the user equipment receives a scheduling DCI from the network device. The TDRA field in the DCI points to a row in the TDRA table, i.e., a TDRA element. If the TDRA element contains N {k0, mappingtype, SLIV}, then the DCI schedules N PDSCHs.

[0092] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0093] For cells configured with both multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, the following limitations may apply: the CBGTI field only exists when DCI schedules single-slot PDSCH; it does not exist when DCI schedules multi-slot PDSCH. That is, multi-slot PDSCH scheduled by DCI will not be transmitted / retransmitted according to CBG. Under this limitation, using the maximum value between M and N as the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to DCI can reduce the number of bits for HARQ-ACK information in scenarios involving multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of HARQ-ACK codebook feedback.

[0094] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0095] Step 301: Receive the first configuration information and the second configuration information;

[0096] Step 302: In response to the first configuration information indicating configuration of multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, the second configuration information indicating configuration of CBG transmission, and in response to a DCI scheduling of L PDSCHs where L = 1 and M ≥ N, determine that the HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to the DCI include M information bits corresponding to the M CBGs corresponding to the PDSCH, and generate the HARQ-ACK codebook based on the number of HARQ-ACK information bits;

[0097] Step 303: Send the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device;

[0098] The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via physical uplink control channel PDCCH, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure code block group (CBG) transmission.

[0099] Furthermore, M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, N is the maximum number of PDSCHs corresponding to the PDCCH scheduling of multi-slot PDSCH transmission, and the maximum number of PDSCHs is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined according to the network device configuration, or the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined by the protocol. M and N are both positive integers greater than zero, and L is a positive integer greater than zero.

[0100] In one embodiment, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates configuration for multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates configuration for CBG transmission; the user equipment responds to the received first and second configuration information, and responds to a DCI scheduling of L PDSCHs where L=1, M≥N, the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the DCI includes M information bits corresponding to the M CBGs corresponding to the PDSCH, and generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the M information bits; then the generated HARQ-ACK codebook is sent.

[0101] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0102] Furthermore, for cells configured with both multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, the following limitations may apply: the CBGTI field only exists when DCI schedules a single-slot PDSCH; it does not exist when DCI schedules multi-slot PDSCH. That is, multi-slot PDSCH scheduled by DCI will not be transmitted / retransmitted according to CBG. Under this limitation, using the maximum value between M and N as the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to DCI can reduce the number of bits for HARQ-ACK information in scenarios involving multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of HARQ-ACK codebook feedback.

[0103] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. The method includes:

[0104] Receive the first configuration information and the second configuration information;

[0105] In response to the first configuration information indicating configuration of multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, the second configuration information indicating configuration of CBG transmission, and in response to a DCI scheduling of L PDSCHs where L = 1 and M < N, the HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to the DCI are determined to include M information bits corresponding to the M CBGs corresponding to the PDSCH and (NM) padding bits, wherein the values ​​of the (NM) padding bits are all the same, and the HARQ-ACK codebook is generated based on the number of HARQ-ACK information bits.

[0108] Furthermore, M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, N is the maximum number of PDSCHs corresponding to the PDCCH scheduling of multi-slot PDSCH transmission, and the maximum number of PDSCHs is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined according to the network device configuration, or the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined by the protocol. M and N are both positive integers greater than zero, and L is a positive integer greater than zero.

[0109] In one embodiment, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates configuration for multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates configuration for CBG transmission; the user equipment responds to the received first and second configuration information, and responds to a DCI scheduling L PDSCHs where L=1, M<N, the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the DCI includes M information bits and (NM) padding bits corresponding to the M CBGs corresponding to the PDSCH, the padding bits being all 0s or all 1s, and generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the N information bits; then the generated HARQ-ACK codebook is sent.

[0110] In one implementation, for example, corresponding to a certain cell, M=4 and N=6 are configured, and the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the DCI is determined to be the maximum value of M and N, i.e., 6. If a DCI schedules a single-slot PDSCH, the HARQ-ACK information for that single-slot PDSCH is fed back in the CBG manner, which is 4 bits. When all CBGs in the PDSCH are decoded correctly, 11 1 1 is fed back, and the remaining 2 bits are padding bits, which are filled with the default value 00.

[0111] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0112] Furthermore, for cells configured with both multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, the following limitations may apply: the CBGTI field only exists when DCI schedules a single-slot PDSCH; it does not exist when DCI schedules multi-slot PDSCH. That is, multi-slot PDSCH scheduled by DCI will not be transmitted / retransmitted according to CBG. Under this limitation, using the maximum value between M and N as the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to DCI can reduce the number of bits for HARQ-ACK information in scenarios involving multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of HARQ-ACK codebook feedback.

[0120] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0121] Furthermore, for cells configured with both multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, the following limitations may apply: the CBGTI field only exists when DCI schedules a single-slot PDSCH; it does not exist when DCI schedules multi-slot PDSCH. That is, multi-slot PDSCH scheduled by DCI will not be transmitted / retransmitted according to CBG. Under this limitation, using the maximum value between M and N as the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to DCI can reduce the number of bits for HARQ-ACK information in scenarios involving multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of HARQ-ACK codebook feedback.

[0122] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. The method includes:

[0124] In response to the first configuration information indicating configuration of multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, the second configuration information indicating configuration of CBG transmission, and in response to a DCI scheduling of L PDSCHs where 1 < L ≤ N and M < N, the HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to the DCI are determined to include L information bits corresponding to L PDSCHs and (NL) padding bits, wherein the values ​​of the (NL) padding bits are all the same, and the HARQ-ACK codebook is generated based on the number of HARQ-ACK information bits.

[0125] Send the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device;

[0126] The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via physical uplink control channel PDCCH, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure code block group (CBG) transmission.

[0127] Furthermore, M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, N is the maximum number of PDSCHs corresponding to the PDCCH scheduling of multi-slot PDSCH transmission, and the maximum number of PDSCHs is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined according to the network device configuration, or the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined by the protocol. M and N are both positive integers greater than zero, and L is a positive integer greater than zero.

[0128] In one embodiment, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information indicates configuration for multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates configuration for CBG transmission; the user equipment responds to the received first and second configuration information, and responds to a DCI scheduling of L PDSCHs where 1 < L ≤ N, M < N, the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the DCI includes L information bits and (NL) padding bits corresponding to the L PDSCHs, the padding bits being all 0s or all 1s, and generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the N information bits; then the generated HARQ-ACK codebook is sent.

[0129] In one implementation, for example, corresponding to a certain cell, M=4 and N=6 are configured, and the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the DCI is determined to be the maximum value of M and N, i.e., 6. If a DCI schedules 5 PDSCHs, the HARQ-ACK information for this multi-slot PDSCH is not fed back in the CBG manner, but directly uses TB-level feedback. One PDSCH corresponds to 1 bit, so 5 PDSCHs correspond to 5 bits. When all 5 PDSCHs are decoded correctly, 11 1 1 1 is fed back, and the remaining 1 bit is a padding bit, which is filled with the default value 0.

[0130] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0131] Furthermore, for cells configured with both multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, the following limitations may apply: the CBGTI field only exists when DCI schedules a single-slot PDSCH; it does not exist when DCI schedules multi-slot PDSCH. That is, multi-slot PDSCH scheduled by DCI will not be transmitted / retransmitted according to CBG. Under this limitation, using the maximum value between M and N as the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to DCI can reduce the number of bits for HARQ-ACK information in scenarios involving multi-slot PDSCH and CBG transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of HARQ-ACK codebook feedback.

[0132] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0133] Step 401: Receive the first configuration information and the second configuration information;

[0134] Step 402: Based on the first configuration information and the second configuration information, determine the transmission scenario group, where each transmission scenario group includes at least one transmission scenario;

[0135] Step 403: Generate the HARQ-ACK codebook based on the transmission scenario group.

[0136] Step 404: Send the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device;

[0137] The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via physical uplink control channel PDCCH, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure code block group (CBG) transmission.

[0138] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, determines a transmission scenario group based on the first configuration information and second configuration information, and then generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the transmission scenario group and sends it to the network device.

[0139] Whether or not PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured and whether code block group (CBG) transmission is configured can form four transmission scenarios: a transmission scenario in which PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is not configured and CBG transmission is not configured; a transmission scenario in which PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is not configured and CBG transmission is configured; a transmission scenario in which PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured and CBG transmission is not configured; and a transmission scenario in which PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured and CBG transmission is configured.

[0140] A transmission scenario group includes at least one transmission scenario. For example, according to one transmission scenario grouping method, a transmission scenario group includes: a transmission scenario group consisting of a first transmission scenario and a second transmission scenario, and a transmission scenario group consisting of a third transmission scenario and a fourth transmission scenario. For example, according to another transmission scenario grouping method, a transmission scenario group includes: a transmission scenario group consisting of a first transmission scenario and a third transmission scenario, and a transmission scenario group consisting of a second transmission scenario and a fourth transmission scenario.

[0141] The first transmission scenario is a transmission scenario in which multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is not configured and CBG transmission is not configured. The second transmission scenario is a transmission scenario in which multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is not configured and CBG transmission is configured. The third transmission scenario is a transmission scenario in which multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured and CBG transmission is not configured. The fourth transmission scenario is a transmission scenario in which multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured and CBG transmission is configured.

[0142] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, determines a transmission scenario group based on the first configuration information and second configuration information, determines the number of HARQ-ACK information bits for each DCI for cells belonging to the same transmission scenario group, generates the HARQ-ACK codebook based on the number of HARQ-ACK information bits, and sends the codebook to the network device.

[0143] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0144] Furthermore, generating HARQ-ACK codebooks based on transmission scenario groups can reduce the number of bits in HARQ-ACK information and improve the efficiency of feeding back HARQ-ACK codebooks.

[0145] This disclosure provides a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method, which is executed by a user equipment. This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating a HARQ-ACK codebook generation method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0146] Step 501: Receive the first configuration information and the second configuration information;

[0147] Step 502: Based on the first configuration information and the second configuration information, determine the transmission scenario group, where each transmission scenario group includes at least one transmission scenario;

[0148] Step 503: For cells belonging to the same transmission scenario group, determine the maximum number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI as the maximum number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI in each transmission scenario of the transmission scenario group.

[0149] Step 504: Send the HARQ-ACK codebook to the network device;

[0150] The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via physical uplink control channel PDCCH, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure code block group (CBG) transmission.

[0151] In one embodiment, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information, determines a transmission scenario group based on the first configuration information and second configuration information, and for cells belonging to the same transmission scenario group, determines the maximum number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI as the maximum number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI in each transmission scenario in the transmission scenario group, generates a HARQ-ACK codebook and sends it to the network device.

[0152] In one implementation, the transmission scenario group includes transmission scenarios that are not configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and are not configured to transmit CBGs, and transmission scenarios that are not configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH but are configured to transmit CBGs. In the transmission scenario where multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH is not configured and CBGs are not configured, the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is 1. In the transmission scenario where multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH is not configured but CBGs are configured, the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, for example, 4. Therefore, for cells belonging to this transmission scenario group, the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is determined to be 4.

[0153] In one implementation, the transmission scenario group includes transmission scenarios configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH without configuring CBG transmission, and transmission scenarios configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and configured with CBG transmission. In the transmission scenario configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH without configuring CBG transmission, the number of bits in the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is the number of multi-slot PDSCHs indicated in the TDRA table, for example, 6. In the transmission scenario configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and configured with CBG transmission, the number of bits in the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is M*N, for example, 24; where M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device (4), and N is the number of multi-slot PDSCHs indicated in the TDRA table (6). Therefore, for cells belonging to this transmission scenario group, the number of bits in the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is determined to be 24.

[0154] In one implementation, the transmission scenario group includes transmission scenarios configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH without configuring CBG transmission, and transmission scenarios configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and configured with CBG transmission. In the transmission scenario configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH without configuring CBG transmission, the number of bits in the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is the number of multi-slot PDSCHs indicated in the TDRA table, for example, 6. In the transmission scenario configured to schedule multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and configured with CBG transmission, the number of bits in the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is the maximum value between M and N, for example, 6; where M is the maximum number of CBGs (4) included in a transport block configured by the network device, and N is the number of multi-slot PDSCHs (6) indicated in the TDRA table. Therefore, for cells belonging to this transmission scenario group, the number of bits in the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is determined to be 6.

[0155] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0156] Furthermore, generating HARQ-ACK codebooks based on transmission scenario groups can reduce the number of bits in HARQ-ACK information and improve the efficiency of feeding back HARQ-ACK codebooks.

This method can be executed independently or in conjunction with any other embodiment of this disclosure. The transmission scenarios include: a first transmission scenario, a second transmission scenario, a third transmission scenario, and a fourth transmission scenario. The first transmission scenario is one where multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is not configured and CBG transmission is not configured. The second transmission scenario is one where multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is not configured but CBG transmission is configured. The third transmission scenario is one where multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured but CBG transmission is not configured. The fourth transmission scenario is one where multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling is configured and CBG transmission is configured.

[0158] In the first transmission scenario, the number of bits for the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is 1.

[0159] In the second transmission scenario, the number of bits of HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is M;

[0160] In the third transmission scenario, the number of bits of HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is N;

[0161] In the fourth transmission scenario, the number of bits of HARQ-ACK information corresponding to each DCI is M*N or the maximum value of M and N;

[0162] M is the maximum number of CBGs included in a transport block configured by the network device, and N is the maximum number of PDSCHs corresponding to the PDCCH scheduling of multi-slot PDSCH transmission. The maximum number of PDSCHs is the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined according to the network device configuration, or the maximum number of PDSCHs scheduled by a DCI determined by the protocol. M and N are both positive integers greater than zero.

[0168] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information.

For cells belonging to the same transmission scenario, the number of HARQ-ACK information bits corresponding to each DCI is determined, and the codebook corresponding to the cells belonging to the same transmission scenario is determined based on the number of HARQ-ACK information bits. Then, the codebooks corresponding to the cells belonging to different transmission scenarios determined in the above manner are concatenated to obtain the HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to the PUCCH group, and the HARQ-ACK codebook is sent.

[0169] In one implementation, the user equipment receives first configuration information and second configuration information.

[0170] In the above embodiments, the user equipment generates a HARQ-ACK codebook for feedback PDSCH based on the configuration method of scheduling multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH and the configuration method of CBG transmission, thereby enabling the generation of a HARQ-ACK codebook when suitable for the above two configuration methods.

[0171] Furthermore, generating HARQ-ACK codebooks based on transmission scenario groups can reduce the number of bits in HARQ-ACK information and improve the efficiency of feeding back HARQ-ACK codebooks.

The first configuration information indicates whether to configure multi-slot PDSCH transmission via PDCCH scheduling, and the second configuration information indicates whether to configure CBG transmission. The network device then receives the HARQ-ACK codebook from the user equipment for accurate data retransmission.
