[0034] In the related art, when uplink control information is transmitted based on PUSCH, PUSCH resources required for transmitting the uplink control information are reserved with a fixed number of bits. In this way, transmission resources are wasted and the transmission efficiency of the uplink control information is affected.

[0035] The disclosed embodiments are designed to solve the above technical problems by determining the number of bits of the first uplink control information, determining the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information according to the number of bits, and using the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information to transmit the second uplink control information. Since the PUSCH resources are allocated for the transmission of the second uplink control information based on the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information, transmission resources can be saved and the transmission efficiency of the uplink control information can be improved.

[0036] The resources in the embodiments of the present disclosure may refer to time domain resources and / or frequency domain resources.

[0037] The following describes the information transmission method, device, electronic device, terminal, chip and storage medium of the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] The information transmission method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied in a terminal without limitation.

[0039] Figure 2 A flowchart of an information transmission method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the information transmission method includes:

[0041] Step S201: Determine the number of bits of first uplink control information.

[0042] The first uplink control information refers to a type of uplink control information carried by the PUSCH. The number of bits of the first uplink control information refers to the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first uplink control information is a hybrid automatic repeat request confirmation HARQ-ACK information. That is, the actual number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information can be referenced to allocate PUSCH resources for the transmission of other uplink control information. The other uplink control information can also be referred to as the second uplink control information.

[0044] In some embodiments, the second uplink control information may be, for example, channel state information CSI, which is not limited.

[0045] In some embodiments, the second uplink control information is the first part of channel state information CSI part1.

[0046] In some embodiments, the number of bits of the first uplink control information is less than 2 bits. In addition, the number of bits of the first uplink control information is greater than or equal to 0 bits. For example, the number of bits of the first uplink control information is, for example, 1 bit or 0 bit.

[0047] That is to say, the embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied in a scenario where the actual number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information is less than 2 bits. In this scenario, PUSCH resources can be allocated for the transmission of CSI part 1 based on the actual number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information to avoid wasting PUSCH resources, thereby improving the transmission efficiency of CSI part 1 while effectively saving PUSCH resources.

[0048] In some embodiments, in the process of determining the number of bits of the first uplink control information, the number of bits of the first uplink control information can be determined based on a network indication; or based on a predefined protocol; or based on a configuration, and there is no limitation on this.

[0049] Step S202: Determine a physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resource of the second uplink control information according to the number of bits.

[0050] After determining the number of bits of the first uplink control information, the number of bits of the first uplink control information may be directly referenced to allocate PUSCH resources for the transmission of the second uplink control information, wherein the allocated PUSCH resources may be used to transmit the second uplink control information.

[0051] For example, the first uplink control information is HARQ-ACK information, and the second uplink control information is CSI part 1. Then, based on the actual number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information, PUSCH resources may be allocated for transmission of CSI part 1.

[0052] In some embodiments, the PUSCH resources available for transmission of the second uplink control information can be determined based on the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information; or appropriate PUSCH resources can be allocated for transmission of the first uplink control information based on the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information, and then, the PUSCH resources available for transmission of uplink control information other than those used to transmit the first uplink control information are allocated to the second uplink control information; or the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resources for the second uplink control information can be determined based on the number of bits based on any other possible method, such as a configuration method, a protocol predefined method, an indication method, etc., without limitation.

[0053] Step S203: Use the PUSCH resource of the second uplink control information to transmit the second uplink control information.

[0054] After determining the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resources for the second uplink control information according to the number of bits of the first uplink control information, the second uplink control information may be transmitted using the PUSCH resources allocated for the second uplink control information.

[0055] For example, after allocating PUSCH resources for transmission of CSI part 1 according to the number of bits of HARQ-ACK information, CSI part 1 may be transmitted based on the allocated PUSCH resources.

[0056] In this embodiment, by determining the number of bits of the first uplink control information, determining the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information according to the number of bits, and using the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information to transmit the second uplink control information. Since the PUSCH resources are allocated for the transmission of the second uplink control information based on the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information, transmission resources can be saved and the transmission efficiency of the uplink control information can be improved.

[0057] Figure 3 A flowchart of another information transmission method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the information transmission method includes:

[0059] Step S301: Determine the number of bits of first uplink control information, where the number of bits is 0 bits.

[0060] That is to say, this embodiment can be applied when the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information is 0 bits. In this case, it means that there is no need to transmit the first uplink control information.

[0061] Step S302: Determine PUSCH resources that can be used for uplink control information among all PUSCH resources.

[0062] In some embodiments, if the number of bits of the first uplink control information is 0 bits, all PUSCH resources may be determined first, wherein "all PUSCH resources" may refer to resources configured for transmission of PUSCH. The transmitted PUSCH may carry uplink control information and a demodulation reference signal (DMRS), wherein, among the resources configured for transmission of PUSCH, the PUSCH resources that may be allocated to the uplink control information may be referred to as PUSCH resources that may be used for uplink control information.

[0063] In some embodiments, PUSCH resources available for DMRS among all PUSCH resources may be determined, and then the remaining PUSCH resources may be used as PUSCH resources available for uplink control information.

[0064] Step S303: Use the PUSCH resources available for uplink control information as the PUSCH resources for the second uplink control information.

[0065] After determining the PUSCH resources available for uplink control information among all PUSCH resources, the PUSCH resources available for uplink control information may be directly used as the PUSCH resources for the second uplink control information.

[0066] That is to say, if the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information is 0 bits, the PUSCH resources that can be used for the uplink control information in the resources configured for the transmission of the PUSCH can be used as PUSCH resources for transmitting the second uplink control information, without reserving PUSCH resources for the first uplink control information. As a result, the utilization rate of the PUSCH resources can be greatly improved, and more PUSCH resources can be used to transmit the second uplink control information, thereby greatly improving the transmission efficiency of the second uplink control information.

[0067] Step S304: Use the PUSCH resource of the second uplink control information to transmit the second uplink control information.

[0068] For example, if the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information is 0 bits, it means that there is no need to transmit the HARQ-ACK information, then the PUSCH resources available for UCI in the PUSCH resources can be determined, the PUSCH resources available for UCI can be allocated to CSIpart1, and the PUSCH resources allocated for CSI part1 can be used to transmit CSI part1.

[0069] The following are examples for this embodiment:

[0070] Take the first uplink control information as HARQ-ACK and the second uplink control information as CSI part 1 as an example. If the number of HARQ-ACK bits is 0, it means that there is no HARQ-ACK transmission. At this time, CSI part 1 can be mapped to all available UCI resource locations, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of a resource mapping method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4The 14 horizontal grids represent 14 orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) time domain symbols of 1 time slot, and the 12 vertical grids represent 12 frequency domain subcarriers of 1 resource block (RB). The entire resource grid represents the resource mapping of 1 slot and 1RB under a possible resource scheduling method.

[0071] In this embodiment, the number of bits of the first uplink control information is determined, and according to the number of bits, the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information are determined, and the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information are used to transmit the second uplink control information. Since the PUSCH resources are allocated for the transmission of the second uplink control information based on the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information, transmission resources can be saved and the transmission efficiency of the uplink control information can be improved. If the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information is 0 bits, the PUSCH resources that can be used for the uplink control information in the resources configured for the transmission of the PUSCH can be used as PUSCH resources for transmitting the second uplink control information, without reserving PUSCH resources for the first uplink control information, thereby achieving a greater improvement in the utilization rate of the PUSCH resources, and more PUSCH resources can be used to transmit the second uplink control information, thereby greatly improving the transmission efficiency of the second uplink control information.

[0072] Figure 5 A flowchart of another information transmission method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0073] like Figure 5 As shown, the information transmission method includes:

[0074] Step S501: Determine the number of bits of first uplink control information, where the number of bits is 1 bit.

[0075] That is to say, this embodiment can be applied when the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information is 1 bit, and in this case, it indicates that the first uplink control information needs to be transmitted.

[0076] Step S502: Determine the resource location of the first uplink control information according to the number of bits.

[0077] In some embodiments, if the number of bits of the first uplink control information is 1 bit, the resource location of the PUSCH resource used to transmit the first uplink control information can be determined first, and then, the resource location of the first uplink control information can be referred to to allocate PUSCH resources for the transmission of the second uplink control information.

[0078] In some embodiments, the resource location of the first uplink control information can be calculated with reference to the number of bits of the first uplink control information; or the resource location of the first uplink control information can be configured with reference to the number of bits of the first uplink control information; or the resource location corresponding to the number of bits of the first uplink control information can be predefined, and there is no restriction on this.

[0079] Step S503: Determine the PUSCH resource of the second uplink control information according to the resource position of the first uplink control information.

[0080] In some embodiments, after the resource location of the first uplink control information is determined, the PUSCH resource of the second uplink control information may be determined according to the resource location of the first uplink control information.

[0081] In some embodiments, in the process of determining the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information according to the resource position of the first uplink control information, the PUSCH resources available for the uplink control information among all PUSCH resources may be determined, and the PUSCH resources corresponding to the resource position among the PUSCH resources available for the uplink control information may be determined, and the PUSCH resources other than the PUSCH resources corresponding to the resource position among the PUSCH resources available for the uplink control information may be used as the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information. Thus, in the case where the number of bits of the first uplink control information is 1 bit, the utilization rate of the PUSCH resources can still be effectively ensured, so as to improve the transmission efficiency of the second uplink control information.

[0082] In some embodiments, if it is determined that the number of bits of the first uplink control information is 1 bit, all PUSCH resources may be determined first, wherein "all PUSCH resources" may refer to resources configured for the transmission of PUSCH. The transmitted PUSCH may carry uplink control information and a demodulation reference signal (DMRS), wherein the PUSCH resources that may be allocated to the uplink control information among the resources configured for the transmission of PUSCH may be referred to as PUSCH resources available for uplink control information. Then, the resource position of the first uplink control information may be mapped to the PUSCH resources available for the uplink control information (i.e., the PUSCH resources corresponding to the resource position among the PUSCH resources available for the uplink control information are determined), and the remaining PUSCH resources may be allocated to the second uplink control information.

[0083] After the resource position of the first uplink control information is determined and mapped to the PUSCH resources that can be used for the uplink control information, the first uplink control information can be transmitted using the PUSCH resources obtained based on the resource position mapping, thereby further ensuring the utilization rate of the PUSCH resources and improving the transmission efficiency of the first uplink control information.

[0084] Step S504: Use the PUSCH resource of the second uplink control information to transmit the second uplink control information.

[0085] For example, if the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK information is 0 bits, it means that there is no need to transmit the HARQ-ACK information, then the PUSCH resources available for UCI in the PUSCH resources can be determined, the PUSCH resources available for UCI can be allocated to CSIpart1, and the PUSCH resources allocated for CSI part1 can be used to transmit CSI part1.

[0086] The following are examples for this embodiment:

[0087] Take the first uplink control information as HARQ-ACK and the second uplink control information as CSI part 1 as an example. When the number of HARQ-ACK bits is 1, HARQ-ACK calculates the mapping position according to 1 bit and maps it, and CSI part 1 is mapped at the remaining available UCI resource position. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of another resource mapping method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6 It can be seen that the method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can effectively increase the number of REs occupied by CSI part 1, thereby improving the transmission effectiveness of CSI part 1.

[0088] In this embodiment, the number of bits of the first uplink control information is determined, and the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information are determined according to the number of bits, and the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information are used to transmit the second uplink control information. Since the PUSCH resources are allocated for the transmission of the second uplink control information based on the actual number of bits of the first uplink control information, it is possible to save transmission resources and improve the transmission efficiency of the uplink control information. If the number of bits of the first uplink control information is 1 bit, the resource position of the first uplink control information can be determined according to the number of bits, and the PUSCH resources of the second uplink control information can be determined according to the resource position of the first uplink control information, thereby still being able to effectively ensure the utilization rate of the PUSCH resources and improve the transmission efficiency of the second uplink control information. It can also support improving the transmission efficiency of the first uplink control information.

[0089] The method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can increase the resources used for CSI part 1 transmission when the second uplink control information is CSI part 1, thereby reducing the code rate of CSI part 1 and improving the transmission reliability of CSI part 1.
