[0062] For ease of understanding, some contents involved in the embodiments of the present application are described below:

[0063] 1. Low power receiver.

[0064] The low power receiver can be called LP-WUR or almost zero power wakeup radio (AZP-WUR). The basic working principle of LP-WUR is that the receiving end includes a first module and a second module. The first module is a main communication module for sending and receiving mobile communication data, and the second module is a low power receiving module (also called a low power wakeup receiving module) for receiving the above low power wakeup signal. Figure 2 As shown. When the terminal is in idle or inactive state, the terminal turns on the low-power receiving module in energy-saving state or ultra-deep sleep state to monitor LP-WUS and turns off the main communication module. When downlink data arrives, the network-side device sends a wake-up signal to the terminal. After the terminal monitors the wake-up signal through the low-power receiving module, it triggers the main communication module from off to on after a series of judgments, and at this time the low-power receiving module enters the off state from the working state. The low-power wake-up receiving module can receive the low-power wake-up signal when it is turned on.

[0065] 2. Low power wake up signal (LP-WUS).

[0066] In order to reduce the receiving activity of the terminal in the standby state, the RF (Radio Frequency, RF) and baseband (MODEM) modules of the terminal's receiving module are truly turned off, thereby greatly reducing the power consumption of communication reception. This can be achieved by introducing a near "zero" power receiver in the terminal's receiving module. This near "zero" power receiver does not require complex RF module signal detection (such as amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) and MODEM signal processing, but only relies on passive matching filtering and signal processing with low power consumption.

[0067] On the base station side, by sending a wake-up signal on demand, the near-zero power receiver can be activated to receive the activation notification, thereby triggering a series of processes inside the terminal, such as turning on the RF transceiver and baseband processing modules.

[0068] Such wake-up signals are usually some relatively simple on-off keying (OOK) signals, so that the receiver can obtain the wake-up notification through simple energy detection and subsequent possible sequence detection and recognition processes.

[0069] The reception of the low-power wake-up signal can be applied to a terminal in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle (RRC_idle) / inactive (inactive) state, and can also be applied to a terminal in an RRC connected state (RRC_connected), thereby achieving terminal energy saving.

[0070] In one embodiment, the wake-up signal mentioned in the present application is the wake-up signal received and monitored by the low-power receiver, that is, the low-power wake-up signal.

[0071] 3. Discontinuous Reception in Connected State (Connected Discontinuous Reception, C-DRX).

[0072] C-DRX can also be understood or replaced by DRX, which allows the UE to periodically enter a sleep state and not monitor the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). When monitoring, it wakes up from the sleep state (Wake Up), thereby achieving the purpose of saving power. The above-mentioned "sleep" means that the terminal does not monitor the cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI), modulation and coding scheme (MCS) cell radio network temporary identifier (MCS-C-RNTI), control information RNTI (CI-RNTI), configuration scheduling RNTI (cs-rnti), interruption RNTI (Interruption RNT, INT-RNTI), time slot format indication RNTI (SlotFormat Indication RNTI, SFI-RNTI), semi-persistent channel state information RNTI (Semi-PersistentChannel State Information RNTI, SP-CSI-RNTI), transmit power control physical uplink control channel RNTI (Transmit Power Control Physical Uplink Control Channel RNTI, TPC-PUCCH-RNTI), TPC physical uplink shared channel RNTI (TPC Physical Uplink Shared Channel RNTI, TPC-PUSCH-RNTI), TPC sounding reference signal RNTI (TPC Sounding Reference Signal RNTI, TPC-SRS-RNTI), Availability Indicator RNTI (AI-RNTI), Sidelink RNTI (SL-RNTI), Sidelink Configured Scheduling RNTI (SLCS-RNTI) and SL Semi-Persistent Scheduling V-RNTI scrambled PDCCH. On the contrary, "wake up" refers to the time when the UE is "awake", which is used to monitor the above PDCCH, etc. The awake time is collectively referred to as the active time, including the following situations:

[0073] DRX duration timer (drx-onDurationTimer): At this time, the UE is monitoring whether there is PDCCH;

[0074] DRX inactivity timer (drx-InactivityTimer): At this time, the UE detects the PDCCH and is receiving downlink data;

[0075] DRX downlink retransmission timer (drx-RetransmissionTimerDL) or DRX uplink retransmission timer drx-RetransmissionTimerUL: At this time, the UE is waiting for retransmission;

[0076] Random access contention resolution timer (ra-ContentionResolutionTimer) or message B response window (msgB-ResponseWindow): At this time, the UE is waiting to receive Msg2 or Msg4;

[0077] SR is sent on PUCCH: After the UE sends a Scheduling Request (SR), the UE is waiting for an uplink grant (UL grant);

[0078] After the non-contention random access UE receives a random access response (Rach access response, RAR): At this time, the UE is waiting to receive the DCI scrambled by the C-RNTI, which is used to indicate uplink resource scheduling.

[0079] The transmission processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below through some embodiments and their application scenarios in combination with the accompanying drawings.

[0183] When at least one of the following conditions is met, the terminal determines that the monitoring opportunity of the WUS is invalid:

[0184] The terminal receives a signaling for deactivating WUS monitoring, and the signaling for deactivating WUS monitoring takes effect;

[0185] There is a conflict between the monitoring timing of the WUS and the transmission resources of the main communication module of the terminal, where the transmission resources include at least one of uplink transmission, downlink reception and a protection interval.

[0186] In order to better understand the present application, some examples are given below for detailed description.

[0187] In some embodiments, the time domain information and frequency domain information monitored by the WUS can be configured by RRC signaling, such as RRC signaling configuration. Among them, the time domain information of the WUS includes at least the monitoring period of the WUS, the WUS monitoring window within the monitoring period, and the monitoring position in the monitoring window (continuous monitoring or discrete monitoring); the frequency domain information of the WUS includes at least the size of the occupied frequency domain resources.

[0188] The activation signaling and deactivation signaling (or release signaling) of WUS monitoring may be dynamically indicated by layer 1 or layer 2 information, and the layer 1 or layer 2 information at least includes: activation of WUS monitoring or deactivation of WUS monitoring.

[0189] Optionally, when the layer 1 or layer 2 information indicates activation of WUS monitoring, it may also indicate the starting position of the WUS monitoring period, the starting position of the WUS monitoring window in a monitoring period, the WUS monitoring position in the monitoring window, and the starting position of the WUS frequency domain.

[0190] Optionally, when the terminal has multiple WUS configurations (i.e., multiple WUS configurations, different LP-WUS configurations are represented by different indexes), the activation and deactivation information may also indicate which WUS configuration is activated or deactivated by the current layer 1 or layer 2 information, i.e., the layer 1 or layer 2 information indicates the activated or deactivated WUS configuration index.

[0191] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the monitoring period of WUS configured by RRC signaling is 20 time slots, and the WUS monitoring window is 5 time slots. Assuming that layer 1 or layer 2 signaling activates WUS detection and indicates that the starting position of opening the WUS monitoring window is time slot 1, WUS detection will be performed in time slots 1 to 5.

[0192] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the monitoring period of WUS configured by RRC signaling is 20 time slots, and the WUS monitoring window is 20 time slots (i.e., continuous monitoring). Assuming that layer 1 or layer 2 signaling activates WUS detection and indicates that the starting position of opening the WUS monitoring window is time slot 0, WUS detection will be performed in a continuous monitoring manner after time slot 0.

[0193] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the RRC signaling configures the monitoring period of WUS to be 20 time slots, the WUS monitoring window is 10 time slots, and the MO in the monitoring window maps the 10 time slots of the monitoring window in the form of a 10-bit bitmap, which is configured as (0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1), where the leftmost bit from left to right represents the 10th time slot, and so on, the rightmost bit represents the 1st time slot, where a bit set to 1 indicates that there is a WUS MO, and a bit set to 1 indicates that there is no WUS MO.

[0194] like Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the RRC signaling configures the monitoring period of WUS to be 20 time slots, the WUS monitoring window to be 10 time slots, and the period or interval of MO within the monitoring window to be 2 time slots.

[0195] In some embodiments, when the terminal receives layer 1 or layer 2 signaling to activate WUS monitoring in slot n, the terminal stops PDCCH monitoring in slot n+X and starts LP-WUS monitoring in slot n+Y, where X is less than or equal to Y, and X and Y can be layer 1 or layer 2 signaling indications, or can be determined by protocol provisions or RRC configuration. Assume the following situation:

[0196] A. The time required for the terminal to demodulate the first information is 1 slot;

[0197] B. The time when WUR starts to monitor WUS is 0.5 slots;

[0198] C. Demodulation feedback HARQ-ACK is required for the first information.

[0199] At this time, assuming that the terminal feeds back HARQ-ACK in slot n+2, the value of X must be at least greater than or equal to A, C, or max(A, C); the value of Y must be at least greater than or equal to A, B, C, max(A, B), or max(A, B, C).

[0200] Optionally, once the terminal detects WUS in time slot n+j, the terminal should start monitoring PDCCH in time slot n+j+2, where 2 slots are greater than or equal to the time required for the terminal to process WUS, wake up the main communication module, or prepare to start monitoring PDCCH. Until the terminal receives layer 1 or layer 2 signaling to reactivate WUS monitoring again, the terminal resumes or reactivates WUS monitoring and does not monitor PDCCH (or stops PDCCH monitoring).

[0201] Optionally, the layer 1 signaling may be related downlink control information (Downlink Control Information, DCI) carrying PDCCH skipping signaling.

[0202] When DCI indicates that PDCCH skipping is enabled, the monitoring of WUS is activated and the WUS is monitored during the PDCCH skipping period.

[0203] When the DCI indicates that PDCCH skipping is not enabled, the monitoring of the WUS is deactivated, and there is no need to monitor the WUS during the PDCCH skipping period.

[0204] Optionally, activation of WUS monitoring is related to the duration of PDCCH skipping. When DCI indicates to enable PDCCH skipping and the PDCCH skipping duration is greater than a certain time, WUS monitoring is activated; otherwise, WUS monitoring is deactivated, and WUS does not need to be monitored during the PDCCH skipping time.

[0205] Optionally, the layer 1 signaling may be a signaling in which the relevant DCI carries an indication of a slot format, such as DCI format 2_0. For example, the terminal monitors the WUS on a flexible symbol or slot indicated by the DCI.

[0206] Optionally, once the terminal detects WUS in time slot n+j, the UE starts the first timer in time slot n+j (current time slot) or n+j+1 (the next time slot where WUS is detected) or n+j+2 (the same time slot as the start of monitoring PDCCH), and the terminal starts monitoring PDCCH in time slot n+j+2, where the two slots are greater than or equal to the time it takes for the terminal to process WUS, wake up the main communication module, or prepare to start monitoring PDCCH.

[0207] Optionally, during the operation of the first timer, if the terminal detects the PDCCH, the terminal starts the second timer.

[0208] During the operation of the second timer, if the terminal detects PDCCH, the second timer is restarted; if the terminal does not detect any PDCCH and the second timer times out or if the terminal receives a signal to stop the second timer, the terminal resumes or reactivates WUS monitoring and does not monitor PDCCH.

[0209] Optionally, during the operation of the first timer, if the terminal does not detect any PDCCH and the first timer times out or if the terminal receives a signaling to stop the operation of the first timer, the terminal resumes or reactivates the monitoring of the WUS and does not monitor the PDCCH.
