[0122] The exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein with reference to the drawings. In the following description, unless otherwise indicated, like numbers in the drawings indicate like or similar elements. The following exemplary embodiments are described with reference to the drawings, wherein:

[0123] The bandwidth determination method described in the present disclosure can be applied to a wireless communication system as shown in the accompanying drawings. The network system can include network devices and terminals. It can be understood that, Figure 1 The wireless communication system shown is only illustrative, and the wireless communication system can further include other network devices, such as core network devices, wireless relay devices, and wireless backhaul devices, etc., which are not shown in the accompanying drawings. The number of network devices and the number of terminals included in the wireless communication system are not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 1 Figure 1

[0124] ​​It can be further understood that the wireless communication system of the embodiments of the present disclosure is a network that provides a wireless communication function. The wireless communication system can adopt different communication technologies, such as Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), Single Carrier FDMA (SC-FDMA), Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance. According to different network capacities, rates, latencies, and other factors, the network can be divided into 2G (English: Generation) networks, 3G networks, 4G networks, or future evolution networks, such as The 5th Generation Wireless Communication System (5G) networks. The 5G network can also be referred to as a New Radio (NR) network. For the convenience of description, the wireless communication network in the present disclosure will be referred to as a network for short.

[0125] Further, the network device involved in the present disclosure can also be referred to as a wireless access network device. The wireless access network device can be a base station, an evolved Node B (eNB), a home base station, an access point (AP) in a Wireless Fidelity (WIFI) system, a wireless relay node, a wireless backhaul node, a transmission point (TP), or a transmission and receiving point (TRP), etc. It can also be a gNB in an NR system, or it can also be a component or part of a device that constitutes a base station, etc. When it is a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication system, the network device can also be a vehicle-mounted device. It should be understood that the specific technology and specific device form of the network device are not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0126] Further, the terminal involved in the present disclosure, which can also be referred to as a terminal device, a user equipment (UE), a mobile station (MS), a mobile terminal (MT), etc., is a device that provides voice and / or data connectivity to a user, such as a handheld device having wireless connection capability, a vehicle-mounted device, etc. Currently, some examples of the terminal are: a mobile phone, a pocket personal computer (PPC), a palm computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a notebook computer, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or a vehicle-mounted device, etc. In addition, when it is a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication system, the terminal device can also be a vehicle-mounted device. It should be understood that the present disclosure does not limit the specific technology and specific device form of the terminal.

[0127] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device and the terminal can adopt any feasible wireless communication technology to realize mutual transmission of data. Wherein, the transmission channel corresponding to the data or control information transmitted by the network device to the terminal is called downlink (DL), and the transmission channel corresponding to the data or control information transmitted by the terminal to the network device is called uplink (UL). It can be understood that the network device involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be a base station. Of course, the network device can also be any other possible network device, and the terminal can be any possible terminal, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

[0128] In the new radio (NR) system, when the terminal needs to transmit the downlink channel / signal, the channel / signal is transmitted through the control resource set (CORESET).

[0129] It can be understood that the transmission channel involved in the present disclosure can be understood as transmitting corresponding data on corresponding time domain and frequency domain resources, and the data path formed by transmitting the data is the above-mentioned channel. For example, the network device transmits downlink control information on corresponding time domain and frequency domain resources, thereby forming a data path for transmitting the downlink control information. The data path is a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). Then transmitting the downlink control information can also be explained as transmitting the PDCCH.

[0130] In the control resource set 0, the control resource set 0 belongs to a special form of the control resource set, the control resource set 0 is mainly used for transmitting a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and frequency domain resources of the control resource set 0 are mainly determined based on a PDCCH-ConfigSIB1 information field in the MIB. The PDCCH-ConfigSIB1 information field indicates a resource number of the control resource set 0, a number of OFDM symbols occupied by the control resource set 0, and an offset corresponding to a primary synchronization signal (PSS) / secondary synchronization signal (SSS), as shown in Table 2.

[0131] Table 1

[0132]

[0133]

[0134] The resource number indicates a number of frequency domain resources of the control resource set 0 configured by the network device, the symbol number indicates a number of time domain resources (OFDM symbols) of the control resource set 0 configured by the network device, and the offset indicates an offset of a frequency domain resource corresponding to the control resource set from a primary synchronization signal (PSS) / secondary synchronization signal (SSS). The offset can be used to determine a frequency domain position of the control resource set.

[0135] At present, it is considered to let a terminal support a frequency band with a small system bandwidth to support the NR technology. These frequency bands mainly provide services for special services such as special communication of power systems / railway systems, public protection, and disaster relief in some countries and regions, for example, frequency bands with band numbers n8, n26, n28, and n100. Generally, the system bandwidth supported by n8, n26, and n28 is 3 MHz, and the system bandwidth supported by n100 is 2.8 MHz to 3.6 MHz. Because the system bandwidth supported by these frequency bands is small, the resources that can be transmitted on these frequency bands are less, and the number of PRBs that can be generally used is about 15, but the minimum number of PRBs configured for the control resource set 0 in the related technology is 24. In this case, the bandwidth of the control resource set 0 configured by the network device is greater than the system bandwidth.

[0136] Currently, the resource allocation of the PDSCH is limited in the resource range of the control resource set 0, but when the bandwidth of the control resource set 0 is greater than the system bandwidth, how to determine the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is a problem to be solved.

[0137] Figure 2 is a flowchart of a resource allocation method according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 The resource allocation method is performed by a terminal and includes the following steps.

[0138] In step S11, in response to determining that the bandwidth of the control resource set configured by the network device is greater than the system bandwidth, the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is determined.

[0139] The bandwidth of the control resource set is determined based on the number of resources configured by the network device to the control resource set.

[0140] In an implementation, the resources configured by the network device to the control resource set are frequency domain resources, such as the number of PRBs.

[0141] In an implementation, the control resource set is the control resource set 0, which is used to carry the common control channel.

[0142] In step S12, based on the resource allocation range, the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed.

[0143] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the bandwidth of the control resource set configured by the network device is greater than the system bandwidth, the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is determined, and based on the resource allocation range, the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed, so that the network device can transmit the PDSCH based on the resources allocated to the PDSCH, and the transmission reliability of the PDSCH is improved.

[0144] In the resource allocation method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, when it is determined that the bandwidth of the control resource set configured by the network device is less than or equal to the system bandwidth, the resource allocation range of the PDSCH can be determined as the bandwidth of the control resource set.

[0145] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a resource allocation method, as shown in Figure 3 The resource allocation method includes the following steps.

[0146] In step S21, based on the resource allocation range and the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH, the resource allocation amount and the resource location of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range are determined.

[0147] The resource allocation domain of the PDCCH is used to indicate the resource allocation amount and the resource location of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range.

[0148] For example, the resource allocation field of the PDCCH indicates that the PDSCH occupies 10 PRBs in the resource allocation range and the resource location is the second PRB. Then, the PDCCH occupies 10 PRBs starting from the second PRB in the resource allocation range.

[0149] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S21 can be implemented in combination with step S11 shown in the figure, or can be implemented alone. Figure 2 The step S11 shown in the figure can be implemented in combination with step S21 shown in the figure, or can be implemented alone.

[0150] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the resource allocation range and the resource allocation field of the PDCCH are used to determine the resource allocation amount and the resource location of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range, so that the network device transmits the PDSCH based on the resource allocation amount and the resource location of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range, thereby improving the reliability of the PDSCH transmission.

[0151] In the resource allocation method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is determined based on at least one of the following:

[0152] The system bandwidth;

[0153] The resource range of the control resource set;

[0154] The available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0155] In an embodiment, the resource allocation range is the resource range corresponding to the system bandwidth, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed in the system bandwidth.

[0156] In an embodiment, the resource allocation range is the resource range corresponding to the control resource set, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed in the resource range of the control resource set.

[0157] The resource range of the control resource set represents the resources configured by the network device to the control resource set.

[0158] In an embodiment, the resource allocation range is the resource range corresponding to the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed in the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0159] The available resources in the control resource set for transmitting the channel / signal represent the resources in the control resource set that can actually transmit the channel / signal. This is because the bandwidth of the control resource set configured by the network device is greater than the system bandwidth, the resources of the control resource set configured by the network device cannot all be carried in the system bandwidth, and only part of the resources of the control resource set configured by the network device are in the system bandwidth, that is, the resources that can actually transmit the channel / signal. The resources outside the system bandwidth cannot transmit the channel / signal.

[0160] In an implementation, the terminal can determine the resource allocation range of the PDSCH based on one or more of the system bandwidth, the resource range of the control resource set, and the available resources in the control resource set for transmitting the channel / signal. The disclosure embodiments do not limit this, and the following determination of the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is only illustrative.

[0161] In the embodiments of the disclosure, when the bandwidth of the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is determined, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed based on the resource allocation range, so that the network device can transmit the PDSCH based on the allocated resources of the PDSCH, and the transmission reliability of the PDSCH is improved.

[0162] In the resource allocation method provided by the embodiments of the disclosure, the resource allocation range is determined based on the system bandwidth.

[0163] In some embodiments, the system bandwidth is determined based on the indication information.

[0164] In an implementation, the indication information is carried in the master information block (MIB).

[0165] For example, the system bandwidth is indicated based on a spare bit in the MIB or an information field indicating the subcarrier spacing.

[0166] In other embodiments, the system bandwidth is determined based on the frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates.

[0167] For example, the system bandwidth is determined based on the frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates or the minimum frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates.

[0168] For example, the system bandwidth is determined based on the lowest frequency point corresponding to the SSB and the minimum frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates.

[0169] For example, the lowest frequency point corresponding to the SSB is x, and the minimum frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates is Y, and the system bandwidth is between x and x+Y.

[0170] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the bandwidth of the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, the resource allocation of the PDSCH can be based on the system bandwidth, so that the network device can transmit the PDSCH based on the allocated resources of the PDSCH, and the transmission reliability of the PDSCH is improved.

[0171] In the resource allocation method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the resource allocation range is determined based on the resource range of the control resource set, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed in the resource range of the control resource set. However, since the bandwidth of the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, only part of the resources in the control resource set can actually transmit channels / signals. Based on this, the embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a resource determination method, as shown in Figure 4 The method comprises the following steps:

[0172] In step S31, the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the resource range of the control resource set are determined.

[0173] In some embodiments, the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the system bandwidth and / or the resources of the control resource set.

[0174] In an implementation, the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the system bandwidth.

[0175] For example, the system bandwidth is 3.8MHz, and the number of resources that can be carried in the system bandwidth is 18, so the number of available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set is also 18.

[0176] In an implementation, the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the resources of the control resource set.

[0177] For example, the resources of the control resource set are determined based on the first indication information of the MIB, and the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the second indication information of the MIB and the resources of the control resource set. For example, the resources of the control resource set are determined based on the PDCCH-ConfigSIB1 information field of the MIB, and reference can be made to Table 1 described above. The available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the spare information field in the MIB and the resources of the control resource set.

[0178] For example, the spare information field indicates that the number of available resources of the control resource set is 14, and the resources of the control resource set are 24, so the available resources for transmitting channels / signals in the control resource set are 14 resources in the 24 resources.

[0179] The embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a resource allocation method, as shown in Figure 5 The method comprises the following steps:

[0180] In step S41, the resource occupied by the PDSCH in the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal is determined based on the resource allocation range, the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH, and the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal.

[0181] For example, the resource allocation range is determined based on the resource range of the control resource set, the resource range of the control resource set is PRB2 to PRB25, the resource of the PDSCH indicated by the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH is PRB14 to PRB20, and the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal is PRB2 to PRB17. It can be seen that the resource occupied by the PDSCH in the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal is only PRB14 to PRB17.

[0182] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the resource occupied by the PDSCH in the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal is determined based on the resource allocation range, the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH, and the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal, so that the resource allocated to the PDSCH is located in the resource occupied by the PDSCH in the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal, and the transmission reliability of the PDSCH is improved.

[0183] The embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a data processing method, as shown in Figure 6 The method comprises the following steps:

[0184] In step S51, the de-rate matching and de-resource mapping are performed based on the resource occupied by the PDSCH in the available resource of the control resource set for the transmission channel / signal.

[0185] The process of the de-rate matching is opposite to that of the rate matching, and is actually the inverse process of the rate matching, including recovering the bits that are dropped or dropping the repeated bits.

[0186] The process of the de-resource mapping is opposite to that of the resource mapping, and the terminal determines the mapping position of the time-frequency resource actually carrying the PDSCH data in the PDSCH resource through the de-resource mapping.

[0187] In one embodiment, the network device performs rate matching and resource mapping based on the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set, for example, if the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are PRBs 14 to 17, the network device performs rate matching according to 4 PRBs and resource mapping in PRBs 14 to 17, and similarly, the terminal performs de-rate matching according to 4 PRBs and de-resource mapping in PRBs 14 to 17.

[0188] The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a data transmission method, as shown in the following steps: Figure 7

[0189] In step S61, the downlink channel / signal is received based on the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0190] For example, if the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are PRBs 14 to 17, the terminal receives the channel / signal based on PRBs 14 to 17.

[0191] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S61 can be implemented alone or in combination with any of the above embodiments, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.

[0192] The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a data processing method, as shown in the following steps: Figure 8

[0193] In step S71, de-rate matching and de-resource mapping are performed based on the resources indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH.

[0194] In one embodiment, the network device performs rate matching and resource mapping based on the resources indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH, for example, if the resources indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH are PRBs 2 to 17, the network device performs rate matching according to 16 PRBs and resource mapping in PRBs 2 to 17, and similarly, the terminal performs de-rate matching according to 16 PRBs and de-resource mapping in PRBs 2 to 17.

[0195] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S71 can be implemented alone or in combination with any of the above embodiments, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.

[0196] In the resource allocation method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in the following steps: Figure 9

[0197] ​​​In step S81, the terminal receives the downlink channel / signal based on the available resources for the transmission channel / signal in the control resource set.

[0198] For example, the available resources for the transmission channel / signal in the control resource set are PRBs 5 to 17, and the terminal receives the channel / signal based on the PRBs 5 to 17.

[0199] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S81 can be implemented alone or in combination with any of the above embodiments, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.

[0200] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a data processing method, as shown in Figure 10 The method comprises the following steps:

[0201] In step S91, the transmission symbols outside the available resources for the transmission channel / signal in the control resource set are padded.

[0202] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S91 can be implemented alone or in combination with step S81, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.

[0203] In the resource allocation method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the resource allocation range is determined based on the resource range of the control resource set, the terminal receives the PDSCH in the system bandwidth, or the terminal can receive all the resources allocated by the terminal for the PDSCH.

[0204] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal does not expect to receive the PDSCH outside the system bandwidth, or the terminal believes that the terminal can receive all the resources allocated by the terminal for the PDSCH.

[0205] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a resource mapping method, as shown in Figure 11 The method comprises the following steps:

[0206] In step S1001, in response to the resource allocation including allocating a virtual resource block for the PDSCH, mapping the virtual resource block to the physical resource block based on the resource allocation range.

[0207] In an implementation, when performing resource allocation, a virtual resource block (VRB) can be allocated, and the network device and the terminal can map the VRB to a physical resource block (PRB) according to a pre-agreed interleaver to obtain information carried in the PRB.

[0208] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S1001 can be implemented alone or in combination with any of the above embodiments, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.

[0209] Based on the same concept, the embodiment of the disclosure further provides a resource allocation method performed by a network device.

[0210] Figure 12 is a flow chart of a resource allocation method according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figure 12 The resource allocation method is performed by a network device, including the following steps.

[0211] In step S1101, it is determined that the bandwidth configured to the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, and the allocation resource of the PDSCH allocated to the terminal based on the resource allocation range is obtained.

[0212] In an embodiment, the resource configured to the control resource set by the network device is a frequency domain resource, such as the number of PRBs.

[0213] In an embodiment, the control resource set is control resource set 0.

[0214] In step S1102, the PDSCH is transmitted based on the allocation resource of the PDSCH.

[0215] In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the network device configures the bandwidth of the control resource set to be greater than the system bandwidth, the allocation resource of the PDSCH allocated to the terminal based on the resource allocation range is obtained, and the PDSCH is transmitted based on the allocation resource of the PDSCH, so that the network device can transmit the PDSCH based on the resource allocated to the PDSCH, and improve the transmission reliability of the PDSCH.

[0216] In the resource allocation method provided in the embodiment of the disclosure, it is determined that the bandwidth of the control resource set configured by the network device is less than or equal to the system bandwidth, and it can be determined that the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is the bandwidth of the control resource set.

[0217] The embodiment of the disclosure further provides a resource allocation method, and the allocation resource of the PDSCH is determined based on the resource allocation range and the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH, and the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH is used to indicate the resource allocation amount and the resource location of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range.

[0218] For example, the resource allocation domain of the PDCCH is used to indicate that the resource allocation amount of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range is 10 PRBs, and the resource location is the 2nd PRB. Then the resource allocated to the PDCCH is 10 PRBs after the 2nd PRB in the resource allocation range.

[0219] In the embodiment of the disclosure, the network device transmits the PDSCH based on the resource allocation amount and the resource location of the PDSCH in the resource allocation range, thereby improving the reliability of the PDSCH transmission.

[0220] In the resource allocation method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is determined based on at least one of the following:

[0221] a system bandwidth;

[0222] a resource range of the control resource set;

[0223] available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0224] In an embodiment, the resource allocation range is a resource range corresponding to the system bandwidth, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed within the system bandwidth.

[0225] In an embodiment, the resource allocation range is a resource range corresponding to the control resource set, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed within the resource range of the control resource set.

[0226] The resource range of the control resource set represents the resources configured by the network device to the control resource set.

[0227] In an embodiment, the resource allocation range is a resource range corresponding to the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set, and the resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed within the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0228] The available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set represent the resources that can actually transmit channels / signals in the control resource set. This is because the bandwidth configured by the network device to the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, and the resources configured by the network device to the control resource set cannot all be carried in the system bandwidth, and only part of the resources configured by the network device to the control resource set are in the system bandwidth, that is, the resources that can actually transmit channels / signals. The resources outside the system bandwidth cannot transmit channels / signals.

[0229] In an embodiment, the terminal can determine the resource allocation range of the PDSCH based on one or more of the system bandwidth, the resource range of the control resource set, and the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and the following determination of the resource allocation range of the PDSCH is only illustrative.

[0230] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the bandwidth of the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, the terminal determines the resource allocation range of the PDSCH, and performs the resource allocation of the PDSCH based on the resource allocation range, so that the network device can transmit the PDSCH based on the allocated resources of the PDSCH, and improve the transmission reliability of the PDSCH.

[0231] In a resource allocation method provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a resource allocation range is determined based on a system bandwidth.

[0232] In some embodiments, the system bandwidth is determined based on indication information.

[0233] In an implementation, the indication information is carried in a master information block (MIB).

[0234] For example, the system bandwidth is determined based on a spare bit in the MIB or information indicating a subcarrier spacing.

[0235] In other embodiments, the system bandwidth is determined based on a frequency band bandwidth corresponding to a frequency band in which the terminal operates.

[0236] For example, the system bandwidth is determined based on a frequency band bandwidth corresponding to a frequency band in which the terminal operates or a minimum frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates.

[0237] For example, the system bandwidth is determined based on a lowest frequency point corresponding to a Synchronous Signal Block (SSB) and a minimum frequency band bandwidth corresponding to a frequency band in which the terminal operates.

[0238] For example, if the lowest frequency point corresponding to the SSB is x and the minimum frequency band bandwidth corresponding to the frequency band in which the terminal operates is Y, the system bandwidth is located between x and x+Y.

[0239] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the bandwidth of the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, the terminal can perform resource allocation of the PDSCH based on the system bandwidth, so that the network device can transmit the PDSCH based on the allocated resources of the PDSCH, thereby improving the transmission reliability of the PDSCH.

[0240] In a resource allocation method provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the resource allocation range is determined based on a resource range of a control resource set, and resource allocation of the PDSCH is performed within the resource range of the control resource set. However, since the bandwidth of the control resource set is greater than the system bandwidth, only part of the resources in the control resource set can actually transmit channels / signals.

[0241] In some embodiments, the available resources in the control resource set for transmitting channels / signals are determined based on the system bandwidth and / or the resources of the control resource set.

[0242] In an implementation, the available resources in the control resource set for transmitting channels / signals are determined based on the system bandwidth.

[0243] For example, the system bandwidth is 3.8MHz, the number of resources that can be carried in the system bandwidth is 18, and the number of available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set is also 18.

[0244] In an implementation, the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the resources of the control resource set.

[0245] For example, the resources of the control resource set are determined based on the first indication information of the MIB, and the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the second indication information of the MIB and the resources of the control resource set. For example, the resources of the control resource set are determined based on the PDCCH-ConfigSIB1 information field of the MIB, which can refer to Table 1 described above. The available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the spare information field in the MIB and the resources of the control resource set.

[0246] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a resource allocation method. The resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are determined based on the resource allocation range, the resource allocation field of the PDCCH, and the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0247] For example, the resource allocation range is determined based on the resource range of the control resource set, the resource range of the control resource set is PRB2-PRB25, the resource of the PDSCH indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH is PRB14-PRB20, the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are PRB2-PRB17, and it can be seen that the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are only PRB14-PRB17.

[0248] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal can jointly determine the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set based on the resource allocation range, the resource allocation field of the PDCCH, and the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set, so as to ensure that the resources allocated to the PDSCH are located in the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set, and improve the transmission reliability of the PDSCH.

[0249] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a data processing method, as shown in Figure 13 The method comprises the following steps:

[0250] In step S1201, rate matching and resource mapping are performed based on the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0251] In an embodiment, the network device performs rate matching and resource mapping based on the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set. For example, if the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are PRBs 14 to 17, the network device performs rate matching according to 4 PRBs and resource mapping in PRBs 14 to 17, and the terminal performs de-rate matching according to 4 PRBs and de-resource mapping in PRBs 14 to 17.

[0252] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a data transmission method, as shown in the following steps. Figure 14

[0253] In step S1301, a downlink channel / signal is transmitted based on the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set.

[0254] For example, if the resources occupied by the PDSCH in the available resources for transmission channels / signals in the control resource set are PRBs 14 to 17, the terminal receives a channel / signal based on PRBs 14 to 17.

[0255] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S1301 can be implemented alone or in combination with any one of the above embodiments, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.

[0256] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a data processing method, as shown in the following steps. Figure 15

[0257] In step S1401, de-rate matching and de-resource mapping are performed based on the resources indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH.

[0258] In an embodiment, the network device performs rate matching and resource mapping based on the resources indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH. For example, if the resources indicated by the resource allocation field of the PDCCH are PRBs 2 to 17, the network device performs rate matching according to 16 PRBs and resource mapping in PRBs 2 to 17, and the terminal performs de-rate matching according to 16 PRBs and de-resource mapping in PRBs 2 to 17.

[0259] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, step S1401 can be implemented alone or in combination with any one of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein. ​​

[0260] In the resource allocation method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 16 the method comprises the following steps:

[0261] In step S1501, the network device transmits the downlink channel / signal based on the available resources for the transmission channel / signal in the control resource set.

[0262] For example, the available resources for the transmission channel / signal in the control resource set are PRB 5 to 17, and the network device transmits the channel / signal based on PRB 5 to 17.

[0263] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, step S1501 can be implemented alone or in combination with any one of the above embodiments, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit here.

[0264] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a data processing method, as shown in Figure 17 the method comprises the following steps:

[0265] In step S1601, the network device discards the transmission symbol mapped outside the available resources for the transmission channel / signal in the control resource set.
