[0049] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0050] In some embodiments, before executing the disclosed solution, the target network device configures the target device with time-frequency transmission resources for repeated transmission of uplink information and frequency domain resource location information for frequency hopping transmission.

[0051] In some embodiments, the target network device may instruct the target network device to perform frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots through control information.

[0052] The target network device may be a base station in a mobile network.

[0053] In some embodiments, when the target device receives the frequency hopping transmission indication of the bound time slot of the target network device, it performs the following steps: Figure 1 Steps shown.

[0054] Figure 1 The method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be executed by a target device or a target network device corresponding to the network device. In the following embodiments, the target device is used as an example for illustration, but the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0055] The target device can be any electronic device that can communicate, including but not limited to smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktop computers, wearable devices, virtual reality devices, smart homes, etc.

[0056] Reference Figure 1 The data transmission method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure may include the following steps.

[0057] Step S102: determining time domain resource configuration information for repeated uplink information transmission and frequency domain resource configuration information for frequency hopping of the target device.

[0058] In some embodiments, the target device may receive the time domain resource configuration information for repeated transmission of the uplink information and the frequency domain resource configuration information for frequency hopping from the target network device.

[0059] Step S104: determining, according to the time domain resource configuration information, a plurality of time slots corresponding to when the target device repeatedly transmits uplink information.

[0060] In some embodiments, multiple time slots corresponding to the target device's repeated transmission of uplink information can be determined based on the above-mentioned time domain resource configuration information. For example, 8 time slots corresponding to the target device's repeated transmission of the uplink information can be determined, or 10 time slots corresponding to the target device's repeated transmission of the uplink information can be determined. It can also be determined that 12 time slots corresponding to the target device's repeated transmission of the uplink information are determined. The present disclosure does not limit the number of time slots corresponding to the repeated transmission of uplink information.

[0061] Step S106: determine at least one group of bound time slots from the multiple time slots, wherein each group of bound time slots includes at least one time slot.

[0062] In some embodiments, at least one group of binding time slots can be determined from multiple time slots based on the control information sent by the target network device. The control information sent by the target network device includes time window determination information, binding time slot configuration information or other control information transmitted by the target network device. The present disclosure does not limit this.

[0063] That is, the target device can bind multiple time slots according to the binding time slot configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device can also reuse other configuration information sent by the target network device (for example, time window configuration information that can determine the time window (Time domain window) in multiple time slots) to bind multiple time slots.

[0064] The so-called time window may refer to the target network device's expectation that the target device can maintain phase consistency and power consistency when repeatedly transmitting uplink information within the time window, so that the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink transmission information received within the time window.

[0065] Step S108, determining the time domain location information of the frequency hopping according to at least one set of bound time slots, so that the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the uplink information in the bound time slot according to the time domain location information of the frequency hopping and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping.

[0066] The uplink information is uplink data information or uplink control information, wherein the uplink data information is carried by PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), and the uplink control information is carried by PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) or PUSCH.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first time slot position of each group of bound time slots can be used as the time domain position information of the above-mentioned frequency hopping, the middle position of each group of bound time slots can be used as the time domain position information of the above-mentioned frequency hopping, and the last time slot position of each group of bound time slots can be used as the time domain position information of the above-mentioned frequency hopping. The present disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0068] Among them, the first time slot position of each group of binding time slots can refer to the starting position of the effective uplink time slot of each group of binding time slots (that is, the first time slot in the binding time slot that can effectively transmit uplink information uplink) as the time domain position information of the above-mentioned frequency hopping.

[0069] The starting position of the effective uplink time slot will be explained below by taking the example that the target device includes two time slot groups in at least one group of binding time slots. However, it can be understood that the target binding time slot group can include at least one time slot, for example, it can be 1, 2, 3 or 4 timeslots, etc., and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0070] In some embodiments, at least one group of binding time slots includes a target binding time slot group, and the target binding time slot group may include a first target time slot and a second target time slot, the first target time slot is the first time slot in the target binding time slot group, and the second target time slot is the next time slot of the first target time slot, and the first target time slot is not used for the uplink transmission of the uplink information. Then the target network device can determine the second target time slot as the starting position of the valid uplink time slot of the target binding time slot group, that is, the target device will start frequency hopping transmission from the second target time slot.

[0071] It is understandable that the first target time slot may not be used for uplink transmission of the uploaded information, but may be used for transmission of other uplink information, and the present disclosure does not impose any limitation on this.

[0072] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can extend the above embodiments to include 3, 4, 5... time slots in the target binding time slot, and can also extend it to the scenario where there are multiple uplink transmissions that are not used for the uplink information at the starting position of the target binding time slot. The present disclosure does not limit this.

[0073] In some embodiments, if the target binding time slot group includes only one time slot and the time slot is not used for uplink transmission of uplink information, it can be confirmed that the target binding time slot group does not include the starting position of the valid uplink time slot, and the frequency hopping transmission of the binding time slot is not performed through the target binding time slot group.

[0074] In some embodiments, the target device can perform frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots according to the frequency domain resource configuration information of frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, wherein each group of bound time slots corresponds to the frequency domain resource configuration information of a frequency hopping, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot of each group of bound time slots; wherein the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in each time window when performing frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots. The time window may refer to the time window configured by the target network device for the target device, so that the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency when performing uplink transmission in each time window.

[0075] The following will illustrate the frequency hopping transmission process of the above-mentioned binding time slots by assuming that at least one group of binding time slots includes two binding time slot groups and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping includes two frequency domain resource configuration information. However, it should be noted that at least one group of binding time slots may include any number of binding time slot groups, such as 1, 3, 4 or 5, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0076] In some embodiments, at least one group of bound time slots includes a first bound time slot group and a second bound time slot group, and the frequency domain resource configuration information of frequency hopping includes first frequency domain resource configuration information and second frequency domain resource configuration information; then, the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots according to the frequency domain resource configuration information of frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, which may include the following steps: the target device transmits uplink information in the first bound time slot group according to the first frequency domain resource configuration information; the target device transmits uplink information in the second bound time slot group according to the second frequency domain resource configuration information.

[0077] In some embodiments, at least one group of bound time slots also includes a third bound time slot group, and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping also includes third frequency domain resource configuration information; then the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots according to the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, which may also include: the target device performs uplink information transmission within the third binding time slot group according to the third frequency domain resource configuration information.

[0078] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can make appropriate expansions based on the above embodiments. For example, 4 (5, 6...) binding time slot groups can be matched with 4 (5, 6...) frequency domain resource configuration information, and corresponding frequency hopping transmission can be performed. This disclosure does not elaborate on this step.

[0079] The improved technical solution of this embodiment combines frequency hopping transmission with joint channel estimation technology by bundling multiple time slots corresponding to uplink information and then performing frequency hopping transmission on each bound time slot group, thereby improving the performance of uplink transmission.

[0080] Figure 2 A method for determining a binding time slot is shown according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 , the above-mentioned method for determining the binding time slot may include the following steps.

[0081] Step S202: determining time domain resource configuration information for repeated uplink information transmission and frequency domain resource configuration information for frequency hopping of the target device.

[0082] Step S204: determining, according to the time domain resource configuration information, a plurality of time slots corresponding to when the target device repeatedly transmits uplink information.

[0083] Step S206, determining at least one time window for the target device to repeatedly transmit uplink information, so that the target network device performs joint channel estimation on the uplink information transmitted in each time window, wherein each time window includes at least one time slot.

[0084] In some embodiments, the target network device can send time window configuration information to the target device so that the target device can determine at least one time window based on the time window configuration information, and the target device can maintain phase consistency and power consistency within each time window when repeatedly transmitting uplink information, so that the target network device can perform joint channel estimation within each time window.

[0085] like Figure 3 As shown, the target device can determine two time windows in a plurality of time slots (eg, 8 time slots) corresponding to repeated transmission of uplink information according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device.

[0086] like Figure 3 As shown, in the FDD (Frequency Division Duplexing) system, the target device can determine time window 1 and time window 2 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target terminal maintains phase consistency and power consistency when transmitting uplink information in the two windows. The target network device implicitly indicates the frequency hopping time domain position (that is, no additional control information is sent to indicate the frequency hopping position, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping can be determined according to the time window), and the length of the bound time slot is equal to the length of each time window, and the frequency hopping position is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot in each time window.

[0087] like Figure 4 As shown, in the FDD system, the target device can determine time window 1, time window 2 and time window 3 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in the three windows respectively. The network device implicitly indicates the time domain position of the frequency hopping (that is, no additional control information is sent to indicate the frequency hopping position, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping can be determined according to the time window), the length of the binding time slot is equal to the length of each time window, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot in each time window.

[0088] like Figure 5As shown, in the TDD (Time Division Duplex) system, taking the "DDDSUDDSUU" 2.5ms dual-period frame structure as an example, the target device can determine time window 1, time window 2, time window 3 and time window 4 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency when transmitting information in the four windows. The network device implicitly indicates the time domain position of the frequency hopping (that is, no additional control information is sent to indicate the frequency hopping position, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping can be determined according to the time window), the length of the binding time slot is equal to the length of each time window, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot in each time window.

[0089] Step S208: determining at least one group of bound time slots according to at least one time slot in at least one time window, wherein at least one time slot in one time window forms a group of bound time slots.

[0090] In some embodiments, at least one time slot in each time window may be directly used as a group of bound time slots.

[0091] like Figure 3 As shown, the target network device implicitly indicates the frequency hopping time domain position (i.e., no additional control information is sent down to indicate the frequency hopping position, and the frequency hopping time domain position can be determined according to the time window), and the length of the bound time slot is equal to the length of each time window, and the frequency hopping time domain position is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot in each time window. For example, Figure 3 All time slots in time window 1 are used as bound time slot group 1, all time slots in time window 2 are used as bound time slot group 2, and the first valid uplink time slot in bound time slot group 2 is used as the frequency hopping position.

[0092] like Figure 4 As shown, in the FDD system, the target device can determine time window 1, time window 2 and time window 3 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in the three windows respectively. The network device implicitly indicates (that is, no additional control information is sent to indicate the frequency hopping position, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping can be determined according to the time window) the time domain position of the frequency hopping, the length of the bound time slot is equal to the length of each time window, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot in each time window.

[0093] For example, you can Figure 4All time slots in time window 1 are used as bound time slot group 1, all time slots in time window 2 are used as bound time slot group 2, and all time slots in time window 3 are used as bound time slot group 3. The first valid uplink time slot in bound time slot group 2 is used as the first time domain frequency hopping position, and the first valid uplink time slot in bound time slot group 3 is used as the second time domain frequency hopping position.

[0094] like Figure 5 As shown, in the TDD (Time Division Duplex) system, taking the "DDDSUDDSUU" 2.5ms dual-period frame structure as an example, the target device can determine time window 1, time window 2, time window 3 and time window 4 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency when transmitting information in the four windows. The network device implicitly indicates the frequency hopping position (that is, no additional control information is sent to indicate the frequency hopping position, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping can be determined according to the time window), the length of the bound time slot is equal to the length of each time window, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot in each time window.

[0095] For example, you can Figure 5 All time slots in time window 1 are used as binding time slot group 1, all time slots in time window 2 are used as binding time slot group 2, all time slots in time window 3 are used as binding time slot group 3, and all time slots in time window 4 are used as binding time slot group 4. The first valid uplink time slot in binding time slot group 2 is used as the first time domain frequency hopping position, the first valid uplink time slot in binding time slot group 3 is used as the second time domain frequency hopping position, and the first valid uplink time slot in binding time slot group 4 is used as the third time domain frequency hopping position.

[0096] The above embodiments illustrate the applicability of the frequency hopping transmission method of the time slot binding disclosed in the FDD system and the TDD system. In addition, the present disclosure is not limited by the number of frequency hopping positions. The above embodiments only list the case of a maximum of 2 frequency hopping positions. The present disclosure can also be used in the case of more than 2 frequency hopping positions.

[0097] Step S210, determining the time domain location information of the frequency hopping according to at least one set of bound time slots, so that the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the uplink information in the bound time slot according to the time domain location information of the frequency hopping and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping.

[0098] In some embodiments, the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots for uplink information based on the time domain position information of the frequency hopping and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping, including: the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots based on the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, wherein each group of bound time slots corresponds to the frequency domain resource configuration information of a frequency hopping, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the valid uplink time slot of each group of bound time slots; wherein when the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots, it maintains phase consistency and power consistency within each time window.

[0099] In some embodiments, at least one group of binding time slots includes a target binding time slot group, the target binding time slot group includes a first target time slot and a second target time slot, the first target time slot is the first time slot in the target binding time slot group, the second target time slot is the next time slot of the first target time slot, and the first target time slot is not used for uplink transmission of uplink information; then the target device can determine the second target time slot as the starting position of the valid uplink time slot of the target binding time slot group.

[0100] like Figure 3 As shown, the starting position of the first valid uplink time slot in the bound time slot group 2 (ie, the first time slot in the time window 2) can be set as the frequency hopping position.

[0101] like Figure 4 As shown, the starting position of the first valid uplink time slot in group binding time slot 2 (i.e., the first time slot in time window 2) can be used as the frequency hopping position of the second group binding time slot, and the starting position of the first valid uplink time slot in the third group binding time slot (time window) (i.e., the second time slot in time window 3) can be used as the frequency hopping position.

[0102] In some embodiments, at least one group of bonding time slots includes a first bonding time slot group (e.g. Figure 4 The binding time slot group 1 corresponding to the time window 1) and the second binding time slot group (such as Figure 4 The target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots according to the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, including: the target device performs uplink information transmission in the first bound time slot group according to the first frequency domain resource configuration information (i.e., in the first bound time slot group); Figure 4 The first frequency domain resource configuration information is used for uplink transmission in the bound time slot group 1); the target device transmits uplink information in the second bound time slot group according to the second frequency domain resource configuration information (i.e., Figure 4 The second frequency domain resource configuration information is used for uplink transmission in all bound time slot groups 2).

[0103] In some embodiments, at least one group of bonding time slots further includes a third group of bonding time slots (eg Figure 4 The frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping also includes the third frequency domain resource configuration information; then the target device can also perform uplink information transmission in the third binding time slot group according to the third frequency domain resource configuration information (i.e., in Figure 4 The third frequency domain resource configuration information is used for uplink transmission in the binding time slot group 3).

[0104] The technical solution provided by this embodiment implicitly determines at least one group of bound time slots through the time window in the process of repeated transmission of uplink information, so as to perform frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots in each time window. On the one hand, this method determines the bound time slots through implicit indication without additional control information, and directly reuses the method for determining the time window to determine at least one group of bound time slots. On the other hand, by combining the time window for time slot binding, the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the time slots of the time window, thereby improving the uplink transmission performance.

[0105] Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing a method for determining a binding time slot according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 6 , the above-mentioned binding time slot determination method may include the following steps.

[0106] Step S602: determining time domain resource configuration information for repeated uplink information transmission and frequency domain resource configuration information for frequency hopping of the target device.

[0107] Step S604: determining, according to the time domain resource configuration information, a plurality of time slots corresponding to when the target device repeatedly transmits uplink information.

[0108] Step S606, determining the binding time slot configuration for the target device to perform repeated uplink information transmission. The binding time slot configuration information includes the binding time slot size.

[0109] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned binding time slot size may refer to the number of physical time slots, the number of uplink time slots or the time period. Wherein, the physical time slot may include an uplink time slot and a downlink time slot.

[0110] Step S608: Divide the multiple time slots into at least one group of binding time slots according to the binding time slot configuration information.

[0111] In some embodiments, multiple time slots may be divided into at least one group of bound time slots according to the bound time slot configuration information (such as the bound time slot size). For example, multiple time slots may be divided into at least one group of bound time slots according to the number of physical time slots; or multiple time slots may be divided into at least one group of bound time slots according to the number of uplink time slots; or multiple time slots may be divided into at least one group of bound time slots according to a time period.

[0112] like Figure 7 As shown, in the FDD system, the target device can determine time window 1 and time window 2 in multiple time slots according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in the two windows respectively. The target network device explicitly configures the number of time slots in the bound time slot group (that is, the target network device informs the target device of the size of the bound time slots in each time slot group (for example, the number of bound time slots or the time period of the bound time slots) by sending control information), such as 4 physical time slots. The target device can divide at least one group of bound time slots (such as 4 physical time slots) from the multiple time slots corresponding to the uplink information according to the time slot size sent by the target network device (such as the size of 4 physical time slots). Figure 7 Binding time slot group 1 and binding time slot group 2 in it).

[0113] like Figure 8 As shown, in the TDD system, taking the "DDDSUDDSUU" 2.5ms dual-cycle frame structure as an example, the target device can determine time window 1, time window 2, time window 3 and time window 4 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in the three windows respectively. The network device explicitly configures the number of bound time slots (that is, the target network device informs the target device of the size of the bound time slots in each time slot group (for example, the number of bound time slots or the time period of the bound time slots) through the sending of control information), such as 4 physical time slots. The target device can divide at least one group of bound time slots (such as 4 physical time slots) from the multiple time slots corresponding to the uplink information according to the time slot size sent by the target network device (such as the size of 4 physical time slots). Figure 8 Since the physical time slot is used as the counting unit in this embodiment, the time slots that cannot be used for uplink transmission may be included in the calculation of the bound time slots (such as Figure 8 The target device performs frequency hopping transmission in units of 4 time slots according to the configuration information sent by the target network device.

[0114] like Fig. 9As shown, in the TDD system, taking the "DDDSUDDSUU" 2.5ms dual-cycle frame structure as an example, the target device can determine time window 1 and time window 2, time window 3 and time window 4 according to the time window configuration information sent by the target network device, and the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in the four windows respectively. The network device explicitly configures the number of bound time slots (that is, the target network device informs the target device of the size of the bound time slots in each time slot group (for example, the number of bound time slots or the time period of the bound time slots) through the sending of control information), such as 10 physical time slots, or configures a frequency hopping period, such as 2.5ms as the frequency hopping period. The target device can divide at least one group of bound time slots (such as 10 physical time slots) from the multiple time slots corresponding to the uplink information according to the time slot size sent by the target network device. Fig. 9 Since the physical time slot is used as the counting unit in this embodiment, the time slots that cannot be used for uplink transmission may be included in the calculation of the bound time slots (such as Fig. 9 The user performs frequency hopping transmission in units of 10 time slots according to the network equipment configuration.

[0115] Step S610, determining the time domain location information of the frequency hopping according to at least one group of bound time slots, so that the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the uplink information in the bound time slot according to the time domain location information of the frequency hopping and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping.

[0116] In some embodiments, the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots based on the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, wherein each group of bound time slots corresponds to the frequency domain resource configuration information of a frequency hopping, and the time domain position of the frequency hopping is the starting position of the effective uplink time slot of each group of bound time slots; wherein when the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots, it maintains phase consistency and power consistency within each time window.

[0117] In some embodiments, at least one group of binding time slots includes a target binding time slot group, the target binding time slot group includes a first target time slot and a second target time slot, the first target time slot is the first time slot in the target binding time slot group, the second target time slot is the next time slot of the first target time slot, and the first target time slot is not used for uplink transmission of uplink information; then the second target time slot can be determined as the starting position of the valid uplink time slot of the target binding time slot group.

[0118] like Figure 7 As shown, the starting position of the first valid uplink time slot in the binding time slot group 2 (ie, the first time slot in the binding time slot group 2) can be used as the frequency hopping position of the binding time slot group 2.

[0119] like Figure 8As shown, the starting position of the first valid uplink time slot in binding time slot group 2 (i.e., the first time slot in binding time slot group 2) can be used as the frequency hopping position of binding time slot group 2, and the starting position of the first valid uplink time slot in binding time slot group 3 (i.e., the third time slot in binding time slot group 3) can be used as the frequency hopping position of binding time slot group 3, and so on.

[0120] In this method, the network device explicitly configures the number of bound time slots. Within the number of bound time slots, the user does not perform frequency hopping. When the count reaches the number of bound time slots, the user performs frequency hopping.

[0121] In some embodiments, at least one group of bound time slots includes a first bound time slot group and a second bound time slot group, and the frequency domain resource configuration information of frequency hopping includes first frequency domain resource configuration information and second frequency domain resource configuration information; then the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots according to the frequency domain resource configuration information of frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, which may include: the target device transmits uplink information in the first bound time slot group according to the first frequency domain resource configuration information; the target device transmits uplink information in the second bound time slot group according to the second frequency domain resource configuration information.

[0122] In some embodiments, at least one group of bound time slots also includes a third bound time slot group, and the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping also includes third frequency domain resource configuration information; then the target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots according to the frequency domain resource configuration information of the frequency hopping and at least one group of bound time slots, and may also include: the target device performs uplink information transmission within the third bound time slot group according to the third frequency domain resource configuration information.

[0123] The technical solution provided by this embodiment is to bind multiple time slots corresponding to uplink information into groups by binding time slot configuration information, and then perform frequency hopping transmission on each group. The target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the time window and the time slot intersection of the time slot group, thereby improving uplink transmission performance.

[0124] In some embodiments, after the target network device performs frequency hopping transmission of the uplink information in bound time slots, the target network device receives the uplink information transmitted by the target device, and then performs joint channel estimation on the uplink information in combination with each group of bound time slots, and then parses the uplink information.

[0125] Specifically, the target network device can Fig.10 or Fig.11 The steps shown perform signal analysis processing on the received uplink information.

[0126] Fig.10 The figure is a flowchart of a signal analysis and processing method according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0127] refer to Fig.10 The signal analysis processing of the above processing method may include the following steps.

[0128] Step S1002: The target network device receives uplink information transmitted by the target device.

[0129] Step S1004: determining that at least one group of binding time slots is determined based on at least one time window.

[0130] Step S1006: The target network device performs joint channel estimation for the uplink information in each group of binding time slots.

[0131] like Figure 3 As shown, the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink information in the bound time slot group 1, and can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink information in the bound time slot group 2.

[0132] like Figure 4 (or Figure 5 ), the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink information within the binding time slot 1, can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink information within the binding time slot group 2, and can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink information within the binding time slot group 3.

[0133] In the technical solution provided by this embodiment, the target network device can perform joint channel estimation based on the time window, thereby improving the uplink transmission performance.

[0134] Fig.11 FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a signal analysis processing method according to an exemplary embodiment. Fig.11 The above signal analysis and processing method may include the following steps.

[0135] Step S1102: The target network device receives uplink information transmitted by the target device.

[0136] Step S1104: determining at least one group of binding time slots is determined according to the binding time slot configuration information.

[0137] Step S1106: determine at least one time window for the target device to repeatedly transmit uplink information, wherein the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency in each time window when repeatedly transmitting uplink information.

[0138] Step S1108: Determine an intersection of at least one time window and at least one time slot of at least one group of bound time slots.

[0139] In some embodiments, at least one time slot intersection may include one time slot intersection or multiple time slot intersections, which is not limited in the present disclosure. Each time slot intersection may include one time slot or multiple time slots, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

[0140] like Figure 7 As shown, the time slot intersection of time window 1 and binding time slot group 1 includes time slots #1 to #4, the time slot intersection of time window 2 and binding time slot group 2 includes time slots #6 to #8, and so on.

[0141] like Figure 8 As shown, the time slot intersection of time window 1 and binding time slot group 1 includes time slots #1 to #2, the time slot intersection of time window 2 and binding time slot group 2 includes time slots #5 to #7, the time slot intersection of time window 3 and binding time slot group 3 is #11 to #12, the time slot intersection of time window 4 and binding time slot group 4 includes time slot #15, and so on.

[0142] like Fig. 9 As shown, the time slot intersection of time window 1 and binding time slot group 1 includes time slots #1 to #2, the time slot intersection of time window 2 and binding time slot group 1 includes #5 to #7, the time slot intersection of time window 3 and binding time slot group 2 includes #11 to #12, the time slot intersection of time window 4 and binding time slot group 4 includes time slot #15, and so on.

[0143] Step S1110: The target network device performs joint channel estimation for uplink information in each time slot intersection.

[0144] In some embodiments, the at least one time window may include a fourth time window (eg Fig. 9 1), at least one group of binding time slots includes a fourth binding time slot group (such as Fig. 9 1), at least one time slot intersection includes a fourth time slot intersection (e.g., Fig. 9 The fourth time slot intersection is the time slot intersection of the fourth time window and the fourth bound time slot group; then the target network device performs joint channel estimation on each time slot intersection separately, which may include: determining that the number of time slots in the fourth time slot intersection is greater than 1, then performing joint channel estimation on the time slots in the fourth time slot intersection; determining that the number of time slots in the fourth time slot intersection is equal to 1, then performing channel estimation on the time slots in the fourth time slot separately.

[0145] In some embodiments, the at least one time window includes a fifth time window (eg, Fig. 9 2), at least one time slot intersection includes a fifth time slot intersection (e.g., Fig. 9The fifth time slot intersection is the time slot intersection of the fifth time window and the fourth bound time slot group; then the target network device performs joint channel estimation on each time slot intersection separately, and further includes: determining that the number of time slots in the fifth time slot intersection is greater than 1, then performing joint channel estimation on the time slots in the fifth time slot intersection; determining that the number of time slots in the fifth time slot intersection is equal to 1, then performing channel estimation on the time slots in the fifth time slot separately.

[0146] In some embodiments, at least one group of bound time slots includes a fifth bound time slot group, and at least one time slot intersection includes a sixth time slot intersection, and the sixth time slot intersection is a time slot intersection of a fourth time window and a time slot intersection of the fifth bound time slot group; then the target network device performs joint channel estimation on each time slot intersection separately, which may include: determining that the number of time slots in the sixth time slot intersection is greater than 1, then performing joint channel estimation on the time slots in the sixth time slot intersection; determining that the number of time slots in the sixth time slot intersection is equal to 1, then performing channel estimation on the time slots in the sixth time slot separately.

[0147] Specifically, if Figure 7 As shown, the target terminal can perform frequency hopping transmission in units of 4 time slots according to the configuration of the target network device. It can be found that the uplink time slots #1 to #4 are located in the same time window 1, which can maintain phase consistency and power consistency, and the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink time slots #1 to #4. Note that frequency hopping occurs in the uplink time slot #5. Due to the frequency hopping, the phase consistency or power consistency is destroyed. Therefore, the window that can actually be used for joint channel estimation has changed and becomes time window 1'. The target network device cannot perform joint channel estimation on the uplink time slot #5 and the uplink time slots #1 to #4 together. For the uplink time slots #6 to #8, it can be found that they are located in the same time window 2, which can maintain phase consistency and power consistency, and the network device can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink time slots #6 to #8. Since the uplink time slot #5 and the uplink time slots #6 to #8 are located in different time windows, the network device cannot perform joint channel estimation on the uplink time slot #5 and the uplink time slots #6 to #8 together. Finally, uplink time slot #5 transmits uplink information normally, and does not perform joint channel estimation with other time slots.

[0148] like Figure 8 As shown, uplink time slots #1 to #2, uplink time slots #5 to #7, and uplink time slots #11 to #12 belong to the same time window respectively, and phase consistency and power consistency can be maintained respectively in the corresponding time windows, and the network device can perform joint channel estimation on them respectively.

[0149] like Fig. 9As shown, uplink time slots #1 to #2, uplink time slots #5 to #7, and uplink time slots #11 to #12 belong to the same time window respectively, and phase consistency and power consistency can be maintained respectively in the corresponding time windows, and the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on them respectively. However, for uplink time slots #1 to #2 and uplink time slots #5 to #7, the target network device does not perform joint channel estimation on these five time slots together because they belong to different time windows. Similarly, for time slots #5 to #7 and time slots #11 to #12, the network device cannot perform joint channel estimation on these five time slots together because they belong to different time windows.

[0150] In the technical solution provided by this embodiment, the target network device can perform joint channel estimation based on the time window, thereby improving the uplink transmission performance.

[0151] Fig.12 The figure is a flow chart showing a frequency hopping transmission method according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0152] Step S1202: The target network device determines the time-frequency transmission resources for repeated transmission of uplink information for the target device, and configures a time window for joint channel estimation.

[0153] In some embodiments, the target network device may configure repeated transmission of uplink information of the target device and send down relevant time-frequency transmission resources, and configure a time window for joint channel estimation.

[0154] The so-called time window may refer to the target network device's expectation that the target device can maintain phase consistency and power consistency during uplink transmission within the time window, so that the target network device can perform joint channel estimation on the uplink transmission information received within the time window.

[0155] Step S1204: the target network device instructs the target device to perform frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots, and instructs the target device on the time-frequency resource position of the frequency hopping transmission.

[0156] In some embodiments, the target network device may instruct the target network device to perform frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots through control information, and indicate the time-frequency resource position of the frequency hopping transmission of the target device.

[0157] In some embodiments, the target network device may only indicate that the target device needs to perform frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots and the frequency domain resource location of the frequency hopping transmission, so that the target device determines at least one group of bound time slots in multiple time slots corresponding to the repeated transmission of uplink information according to the time window, so as to perform frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots according to the bound time slots and the frequency domain resources of the frequency hopping transmission issued by the target network device.

[0158] In some embodiments, the target network device may indicate that the target device needs to perform frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots, and at the same time indicate the time slot configuration information (including time slot size) when the target device performs frequency hopping transmission, so that the target device determines at least one group of bound time slots in multiple time slots corresponding to the repeated transmission of uplink information according to the time slot configuration information, so as to perform frequency hopping transmission of bound time slots according to the bound time slots and the frequency domain resources of the frequency hopping transmission issued by the target network device.

[0159] Step S1206: The target device performs frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slot according to the instruction of the target network device.

[0160] In some embodiments, the target device can determine at least one group of bound time slots from multiple time slots corresponding to repeated transmission of uplink information according to the time window, and then perform frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots according to the bound time slots and the frequency domain resources of the frequency hopping transmission issued by the target network device.

[0161] In some embodiments, the target device can determine at least one group of bound time slots from multiple time slots corresponding to the repeated transmission of uplink information based on the time slot configuration information sent by the target network device, and then perform frequency hopping transmission of the bound time slots based on the bound time slots and the frequency domain resources of the frequency hopping transmission sent by the target network device.

[0162] Step S1208: The target network device performs joint channel estimation.

[0163] In some embodiments, the target network device receives uplink information transmitted by the target device; then performs joint channel estimation on the uplink information in combination with each group of bound time slots, and then parses the uplink information.

[0164] If at least one group of binding time slots is determined according to at least one time window, the target network device performs joint channel estimation in each group of binding time slots for uplink information.

[0165] If at least one group of binding time slots is determined based on the binding time slot configuration information, then at least one time window for the target device to repeatedly transmit uplink information is determined, wherein the target device maintains phase consistency and power consistency within each time window when performing repeated uplink information transmission; at least one time window and at least one time slot intersection of at least one group of binding time slots are determined; and the target network device performs joint channel estimation for the uplink information in each time slot intersection.

[0166] Through the method of this patent, several time slots used for repeated transmission of PUSCH / PUCCH are bound so that they can perform frequency hopping transmission together, and joint channel estimation is performed in the time slot intersection of these bound time slot domain time windows, thereby improving the transmission performance of PUSCH and PUCCH.
