[0182] It should be understood that the terms “system” and “network” are often used interchangeably herein. The term “and / or” herein is only used to describe the associated objects in association, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean that A exists alone, A and B exist together, and B exists alone. In addition, the character “ / ” herein generally represents an “or” relationship between the associated objects.
[0183] In the 5G system, a network device can send a terminal device a SS burst set containing multiple synchronization signal blocks (SS blocks), each of which contains a primary synchronization signal (PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), and a physical broadcasting channel (PBCH). The frequency position of the SS block in the system bandwidth is not limited to the center frequency position of the system bandwidth. The terminal device searches for the SS block in the system bandwidth to acquire time-frequency synchronization, acquire PBCH information, and perform radio resource management (RRM) measurement.
[0184] For the 5G system, a wideband component carrier with a large bandwidth, for example, a wideband component carrier with a bandwidth of 400 MHz or even 1 GHz, can be supported. Multiple SS blocks can be transmitted in the frequency domain in the wideband component carrier. If the future 5G system supports transmission of multiple SS blocks in the frequency domain in the wideband component carrier, the terminal can access the system by searching for any SS block in the multiple SS blocks.
[0185] Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a scheme for how to allocate frequency domain resources, configure a bandwidth part, and / or send a reference signal to a terminal device in the case where multiple synchronization signal blocks exist in a bandwidth component carrier.
[0186] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the system bandwidth can include multiple bandwidth parts (BPs).
[0187] Optionally, the bandwidths of the multiple bandwidth parts can be the same or different.
[0188] Optionally, when the bandwidths of the multiple bandwidth parts are different, the multiple bandwidth parts can be completely non-overlapping. Alternatively, a small bandwidth part falls into a larger bandwidth part, and the center frequency of the small bandwidth part and the center frequency of the large bandwidth part can overlap or not overlap.
[0189] Optionally, the adjacent two bandwidth parts in the multiple bandwidth parts can be non-overlapping and non-gapped. Alternatively, the adjacent two bandwidth parts can be partially overlapping.
[0190] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the frequency domain resource allocated by the frequency domain resource allocation can be a frequency domain resource in the configured bandwidth part, and the allocated frequency domain resource can be in units of frequency domain resource units (for example, a frequency domain resource occupied by one physical resource block (Physical Resource Block, PRB)).
[0191] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the frequency domain resource allocation can be used for data transmission of the terminal device. The network device can allocate frequency domain resources according to the amount of data currently to be transmitted by the terminal device.
[0192] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the bandwidth part configured for the terminal device can be semi-static, and the network device can configure the bandwidth part for the terminal device according to the capability of the terminal device.
[0193] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can also be configured with a corresponding bandwidth part according to the amount of data, for example, a small data amount transmission can be configured with a smaller bandwidth part, and a large data amount transmission can be configured with a larger bandwidth part or even a full bandwidth.
[0194] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the bandwidth part configuration and / or frequency domain resource allocation for the terminal device can refer to the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device. The following will be described in detail in combination with the method 200 shown in Figure 2 .
[0195] Figure 2 is a schematic flowchart of a wireless communication method 200 according to the embodiments of the present application. As shown in Figure 2 , the method 200 includes at least part of the following contents.
[0196] In 210, the network device receives a first message sent by a terminal device, and the first message is used to indicate a first synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device.
[0197] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the first message can indicate the first synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device in a displayed or implicit manner.
[0198] In one implementation manner, the first message carries an index of the first synchronization signal block.
[0199] Specifically, a plurality of SS blocks are configured in the network, after the terminal device searches one of the SS blocks, the terminal device can obtain the index of the SS block, and the terminal device can report the index of the SS block searched by the terminal device to the network device through signaling. The signaling can be a radio resource control (RRC) connection request.
[0200] Optionally, the network device can pre-inform the terminal device of the index information of the SS block in the frequency through, for example, a system message bound with the SS block.
[0201] In an implementation manner, the first message indicates the first synchronization signal block to the network device through the occupied resource.
[0202] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can determine the resource for transmitting the first message according to the detected first synchronization signal block, indicate the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device to the network device through the resource for transmitting the first message, and the network device can determine the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device according to the resource for transmitting the first message.
[0203] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can determine the resource for transmitting the first message according to the correspondence between the resources occupied by the plurality of first messages and the plurality of synchronization signal blocks. Correspondingly, the network device can determine the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device according to the correspondence between the resources occupied by the plurality of first messages and the plurality of synchronization signal blocks, and the resource for receiving the first message.
[0204] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device can indicate the correspondence between the resources occupied by the plurality of first messages and the plurality of synchronization signal blocks to the terminal device. Optionally, the correspondence can be broadcast to the terminal device through a broadcast message.
[0205] Optionally, the first message can be a message in a random access process, for example, can be MSG1 or MSG3.
[0206] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, when the first message is a random access request message, the first message indicates the first synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device to the network device through the carried random access preamble.
[0207] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can determine the random access preamble according to the detected first synchronization signal block, and carry the random access preamble in the random access request message, and the network device can determine the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device according to the random access preamble carried in the random access request message.
[0208] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can determine the random access preamble corresponding to the detected synchronization signal block according to the correspondence between the multiple random access preambles and the multiple synchronization signal blocks. Correspondingly, the network device can determine the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device according to the correspondence between the multiple random access preambles and the multiple synchronization signal blocks and the received random access preamble.
[0209] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device can indicate the correspondence between the multiple random access preambles and the multiple synchronization signal blocks to the terminal device. Optionally, the correspondence can be broadcast to the terminal device through a broadcast message.
[0210] In 220, the network device performs frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration on the terminal device according to the first synchronization signal block.
[0211] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device performs frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration on the terminal device according to the frequency point occupied by the first synchronization signal block.
[0212] Optionally, the frequency point occupied by the synchronization signal block mentioned in the embodiments of the present application can be the center frequency point, the upper frequency point or the lower frequency point occupied by the synchronization signal block.
[0213] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device determines the reference point according to the frequency point occupied by the first synchronization signal block, and performs frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration on the terminal device according to the reference point.
[0214] In one implementation manner, the network device can determine the frequency point occupied by the first synchronization signal block as the reference point.
[0215] In one implementation manner, the network device can determine the second synchronization signal block according to the frequency point occupied by the first synchronization signal block, and determine the reference point according to the frequency point occupied by the second synchronization signal block.
[0216] Specifically, the network device determines the second synchronization signal block when the interval between the first synchronization signal block and the frequency domain resource to be allocated to the terminal device is greater than or equal to a predetermined value. The network device determines the reference point according to the frequency point occupied by the second synchronization signal block.
[0217] Therefore, through this implementation manner, it can be avoided that too much signaling overhead is caused due to too many fields required for indication because the interval between the reference point and the allocated frequency domain resource or the configured bandwidth part is too large when the frequency domain resource is allocated to the terminal device or the bandwidth part is configured.
[0218] Optionally, the network device can determine the frequency point occupied by the second synchronization signal block as a reference point for frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration.
[0219] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation (which can be referred to as a second reference point) and the reference point for bandwidth part configuration (which can be referred to as a first reference point) can be the same reference point or different reference points.
[0220] For example, the frequency point occupied by the first synchronization signal block can be directly determined as the reference point for both frequency domain resource allocation and bandwidth part configuration.
[0221] For example, the network device can determine the frequency point occupied by the first synchronization signal block as the reference point for bandwidth part configuration, and determine the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation based on the configured bandwidth part. Wherein, based on the configured bandwidth part, the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation can be: the frequency point occupied by the synchronization signal block closest to the configured bandwidth part is determined as the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation, or a synchronization signal block can be determined from the synchronization signal blocks whose frequency domain distance from the configured bandwidth part is less than or equal to a predetermined value, and the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation is determined based on the determined synchronization signal block.
[0222] For example, the frequency point occupied by the second synchronization signal block can be determined as the reference point for bandwidth part configuration, and the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation is determined based on the configured bandwidth part. Wherein, based on the configured bandwidth part, the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation can be: the frequency point occupied by the synchronization signal block closest to the configured bandwidth part is determined as the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation, or a synchronization signal block can be determined from the synchronization signal blocks whose frequency domain distance from the configured bandwidth part is less than or equal to a predetermined value, and the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation is determined based on the determined synchronization signal block.
[0223] For ease of understanding, the following will be described in detail in combination with Figure 3 as an example.
[0224] For example Figure 3 As shown in the figure, two synchronization signal block (SS block, SSB) positions are distributed in the wideband member carrier. If the network device determines that the SSB detected by the terminal device is SSB1, the network device can configure the terminal with bandwidth part 0 or bandwidth part 1 and perform service scheduling (including frequency domain resource allocation) on the terminal device in bandwidth part 0 or bandwidth part 1 based on the frequency point where SSB1 is located as a reference point.
[0225] Or, if the terminal device retrieves SSB1, and reports SSB1 to the network device through the foregoing method, but the network device expects to configure bandwidth part 2 for the terminal device, the network device can take the frequency point where SSB2 is located as the reference point of the terminal device. In this way, the network device can configure bandwidth part 2 for the terminal device and perform service scheduling on the terminal device in bandwidth part 2 based on the frequency point where SSB1 is located as the reference point.
[0226] Through such an operation, on the one hand, a flexible configuration of a bandwidth part in which the terminal works and a flexible frequency reference point of resource allocation are provided, and on the other hand, since the network can reduce the frequency interval between the frequency reference point and the actually allocated frequency resource through the selection of the frequency reference point, the resource indication signaling overhead in the downlink control channel can be effectively reduced.
[0227] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the reference point for bandwidth part configuration or frequency domain resource allocation is based on the frequency point where the second synchronization signal block is located, since the synchronization signal block based on which the reference point is determined is changed, the reference point for bandwidth part configuration or frequency domain resource allocation can be indicated to the terminal device, wherein the reference point can be indicated to the terminal device by directly notifying the terminal device of the frequency point where the reference point is located, or the terminal device can be notified of the second synchronization signal block based on which the reference point is determined. Wherein the indication information can be carried in a random access response message (at this time, the foregoing first message can be a random access request message), or in RRC dedicated signaling (for example, an RRC connection establishment response message, at this time, the first message can be an RRC connection establishment request message).
[0228] Optionally, the RRC dedicated signaling in the embodiment of the present application includes an RRC connection establishment command or an RRC reconfiguration command
[0229] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device can send information for indicating the frequency domain relationship between a plurality of synchronization signal blocks, the plurality of synchronization signal blocks including the first synchronization signal block and the second synchronization signal block.
[0230] Based on this, the terminal device can determine the frequency point where the second synchronization signal block is located according to the frequency domain relationship and the frequency point where the first synchronization signal block is located, and if the terminal device is notified by the network device that the synchronization signal block based on which the reference point is determined is the second synchronization signal block, the terminal device can determine the reference point of the frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration of the terminal device by the network device based on the same rule as the network device.
[0231] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the indication information can also be sent to the terminal device to indicate the reference point for the network device to allocate frequency domain resources and / or configure bandwidth parts to the terminal device when the terminal device does not change the directly determined synchronization signal block of the reference point. The reference point notified to the terminal device can be the frequency point occupied by the reference point directly notified to the terminal device, or a confirmation message can be sent to the terminal device, and the reference point is determined by the network device based on the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device. The indication information can be carried in the random access response message (at this time, the first message can be the random access request message), or in the RRC dedicated signaling (for example, the RRC connection establishment response message, at this time, the first message can be the RRC connection establishment request message).
[0232] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device sends information to the terminal device, and the information is used to indicate the size of the allocated resources and / or the offset relative to the reference point, and / or the number of configured bandwidth parts and / or the offset relative to the reference point. Correspondingly, the terminal device can determine the frequency domain resources allocated by the network device and / or the configured bandwidth parts for the terminal device according to the information sent by the network device and the reference point.
[0233] The offset of the allocated resources relative to the reference point can be the offset of the upper frequency point of the allocated resources relative to the reference point, the offset of the center frequency point of the allocated resources relative to the reference point, or the offset of the lower frequency point of the allocated resources relative to the reference point.
[0234] The offset of the configured bandwidth part relative to the reference point can be the offset of the upper frequency point of the configured bandwidth part relative to the reference point, the offset of the center frequency point of the configured bandwidth part relative to the reference point, or the offset of the lower frequency point of the configured bandwidth part relative to the reference point.
[0235] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device allocates frequency domain resources and / or configures bandwidth parts to the terminal device in combination with the capability information of the terminal device and / or the current service situation of the network.
[0236] For example, the network device can allocate frequency domain resources and / or configure bandwidth parts to the terminal device in combination with the capability information of the terminal device, the amount of data currently required to be transmitted by the terminal device, and / or the occupation situation of each bandwidth and / or resource by other terminal devices (for considering load balancing).
[0237] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device can send a reference signal to the terminal device with a third reference point.
[0238] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device sends a reference signal to one side of the frequency with the third reference point as the starting point.
[0239] Alternatively, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device can send the reference signal to both sides of the reference point based on the reference point.
[0240] Alternatively, when the network device does not need to send the reference signal in a frequency range starting from the third reference point, it can be assumed that the reference signal is still sent starting from the third reference point, but it is not sent in the frequency range and the remaining part of the reference signal is sent in other frequency ranges.
[0241] For example, the third reference point is at a frequency position of 20 MHz, and the network device needs to occupy 20 MHz to send the complete reference signal, and the frequency range allocated to the terminal is 0-10 MHz. One method is to send the reference signal in the range of 0-20 MHz; the second method is that, since in a specific scenario, 10 MHz-20 MHz does not need to send a reference sequence (such as no data and reference signal needs to be sent to the terminal in this bandwidth), the reference sequence part a (which originally occupies 10 MHz-20 MHz) that constitutes the reference signal is no longer sent, and the reference signal part b in the reference signal is sent in the range of 0 MHz-10 MHz, wherein the reference signal part a and the reference signal b constitute the complete reference signal.
[0242] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can receive the reference signal in the configured bandwidth range.
[0243] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device can determine, according to the third reference point of the network device sending the reference signal and the configured bandwidth part, the reference signal part corresponding to the bandwidth part as a local sequence, and receive the reference signal in the configured bandwidth part, and perform channel measurement through the local sequence and the received reference signal, so as to obtain the corresponding channel quality.
[0244] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device can send information to the terminal device to inform the third reference point.
[0245] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the third reference point can be the same reference point as the first reference point and / or the second reference point.
[0246] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the third reference point can be informed to the terminal device by a broadcast message, at this time, the terminal devices in the range of the broadcast message can share the same third reference point.
[0247] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the third reference point can be informed to the terminal device through a random access response message or RRC dedicated signaling (RRC connection establishment response message), at this time, the third reference points corresponding to multiple terminal devices can be the same or different.
[0248] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device can combine the synchronization signal block currently detected by the terminal device to perform frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration on the terminal device, and flexible frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration can be realized.
[0249] It should be understood that although most of the embodiments of the present application describe the reference point for determining the frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration according to the synchronization signal block, the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto, for example, the network device can determine the working condition of the terminal device according to the synchronization signal block detected by the terminal device, and combine the working condition to perform frequency domain resource allocation and / or system bandwidth configuration.
[0250] Figure 4 is a schematic flow chart of a wireless communication method 300 according to the embodiments of the present application. As shown in the figure, the method includes at least part of the following contents. Figure 4
[0251] In 310, the network device sends first information, the first information being used to indicate a reference point of frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration on the terminal device by the network device. Optionally, the first information is carried in a system broadcast message, a random access response message or RRC dedicated signaling.
[0252] In 320, the network device performs frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration on the terminal device according to the reference point.

[0262] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device can determine a reference point for frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration of the terminal device according to a type of the terminal device.
[0263] For different types of terminals, the network device can select different SSBs as reference points for sending a paging message. For example, as Figure 5 For a terminal with a bandwidth less than or equal to 20 MHz, the network device can select an SSB with an index of 1 as a reference point for sending a paging message, and transmit a narrowband paging message. For a terminal with a bandwidth greater than 20 MHz, the network device can select an SSB with an index of 2 as a reference point for sending a paging message, and transmit a wideband paging message.
[0264] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the network device sends a reference signal to the terminal device according to the third reference point.
[0265] Optionally, the network device sends information to the terminal device, and the information is used to indicate the third reference point for the terminal device to send a reference signal.
[0266] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the network device indicates the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration to the terminal device, which can flexibly configure the reference point, avoid using a fixed reference point of the system, and avoid the problem that a center frequency point of the system bandwidth is fixedly used as the reference point in the case of a large system bandwidth, which causes a long field of the indicated allocated frequency domain resource and / or configured bandwidth part to the terminal device, and increases signaling overhead. Moreover, the network device indicates the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration, which can be applied to a scenario where multiple synchronization signal blocks exist.
[0267] Figure 6 is a schematic flowchart of a wireless communication method 400 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the method includes at least part of the following content. Figure 6
[0268] In 410, the network device sends first information, which is used to indicate a first reference point at which the network device sends a reference signal to a first terminal device.
[0269] In 420, the network device sends the reference signal to the first terminal device according to the first reference point.
[0270] Optionally, the first information is carried in a system broadcast message, and the first terminal device includes a terminal device within a coverage range of the network device.
[0271] Optionally, the first information is carried in a random access response message or radio resource control (RRC) dedicated signaling.
[0272] Optionally, the network device sends second information to a second terminal device, which is used to indicate a second reference point at which the network device sends a reference signal to a first terminal device; and the network device sends the reference signal to the second terminal device according to the second reference point.
[0273] Optionally, the first reference point is the same as the second reference point; or,
[0274] The first reference point is different from the second reference point.
[0275] Optionally, one of the reference points is a frequency point occupied by one of multiple synchronization signal blocks.

Moreover, the network device indicates the reference point for frequency domain resource allocation and / or bandwidth part configuration, which can be applied to a scenario where multiple synchronization signal blocks exist.
[0277] And further, different terminal devices can use the same reference point of the reference signal, so as to multiplex the same reference signal sent by the network device; different terminals can also use different reference points of the reference signal, so as to send different reference signals for different terminals, and the above method can obtain the flexibility of reference signal sending.
