[0045] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0046] The terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure. The singular forms "a," "an," and "the" used in the embodiments of the present disclosure and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term "and / or" as used herein refers to and includes any or all possible combinations of one or more associated listed items.

[0047] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used to describe various information in the embodiments of the present disclosure, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first information may also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information. Depending on the context, the words "if" and "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining".

[0048] The embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present disclosure, and should not be understood as limiting the present disclosure.

[0049] Optionally, the network device configures at least one set of CG cycles for the terminal. For example, the network device can configure at least one set of CG cycles for the terminal on a bandwidth part (BWP). The CG cycle can support up to 14*40960 symbols, and the CG cycle can include one or more TOs. For example, the method for the above-mentioned network device to configure at least one set of CG cycles for the terminal may include: the network device can configure at least one set of CG cycles to the terminal through high-layer signaling (such as radio resource control (RRC) signaling), or the network device can configure at least one set of CG cycles to the terminal through high-layer signaling (such as RRC signaling), and then send dynamic signaling (such as downlink control information (DCI) signaling) to the terminal. The dynamic signaling may include the remaining information of the at least one CG cycle, and the dynamic signaling may be used to activate the CG cycle. Optionally, up to 12 sets of CG cycles can be configured and activated on a BWP, and each set of CG cycles is identified by an index.

[0050] Optionally, when the network device successfully configures at least one set of CG cycles to the terminal, and the CG cycle includes multiple TOs, the terminal can select the TO to be used by the terminal from all TOs in the CG cycle. Optionally, the terminal can select at least part of the TOs in the CG cycle as "used TOs", and the remaining TOs (i.e., TOs other than "TOs selected as used by the terminal" in at least one CG cycle configured by the network device) are considered to be "unused TOs" of the terminal. Optionally, for the "used TO" selected by the terminal, the terminal can optionally actually use the TO, for example, use the TO for uplink transmission, or may not use the TO, for example, not use the TO for uplink transmission. For the "unused TO" selected by the terminal, the terminal will not use the TO, for example, not use the TO for uplink transmission.

[0051] Optionally, after the terminal selects the TO to be used by the terminal from all TOs in the CG cycle, the terminal can send an indication message to the network device to indicate the usage status of the TO in the CG cycle, so that the network device can determine the "unused TO" in the CG cycle based on the indication information. The network device can then schedule the TO that is not used by the terminal to be reused for uplink transmission by other terminals, thereby improving the uplink transmission efficiency.

[0052] Optionally, in a communication system, the terminal typically needs to send other uplink information to the network device, such as a Hybrid Automatic Retransmission Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) or Configured Grant Uplink Control Information (CG UCI). After the introduction of the above-mentioned indication information, how the terminal sends the indication information and other uplink information to the network device is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0060] In addition, in order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the following points are explained.

[0061] First, in the present disclosure, unless there is any contradiction, each step in any embodiment or example can be implemented as an independent embodiment, and the steps can be arbitrarily combined. For example, a solution after removing some steps in a certain embodiment or example can also be implemented as an independent embodiment, and the order of the steps in a certain embodiment or example can be arbitrarily exchanged. In addition, the optional methods or optional examples in a certain embodiment or example can be arbitrarily combined; in addition, the various embodiments or examples can be arbitrarily combined. For example, some or all steps of different embodiments or examples can be arbitrarily combined, and a certain embodiment or example can be arbitrarily combined with the optional methods or optional examples of other embodiments or examples.

[0062] Second, regarding the description methods of the present disclosure such as "A or B", "A and / or B", "at least one of A and B", "A in one case, B in another case", "in response to one case A, in response to another case B", etc., at least one of the following schemes may be included according to the situation: executing A independently of B, that is, A in some embodiments; executing B independently of A, that is, B in some embodiments; selectively executing A and B, that is, selecting to execute from A and B in some embodiments; executing both A and B, that is, A and B in some embodiments.

[0064] Fourth, in some implementation modes or examples, “including A”, “comprising A”, “used to indicate A” and “carrying A” in this disclosure can be interpreted as directly carrying A or indirectly indicating A.

[0065] Fifth, in some implementation modes or examples, "in response to...", "in the case of...", "at the time of...", "when...", "if...", "if...", etc. in the present disclosure can be replaced with each other.

[0067] FIG2 is a flow chart of a communication method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is executed by a terminal. As shown in FIG2 , the communication method may include at least one of the following steps:

[0068] Step 201: In response to a network device being configured to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information, at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information are generated in a predetermined order.

[0069] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second information may be used to indicate the usage status of the terminal for the TO, which may include being used or not used. In some embodiments, the second information may be the indication information mentioned above.

[0070] Optionally, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned first information and third information may be information other than the second information. For example, the first information may be HARQ-ACK; the third information may be CG-UCI.

[0071] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second information may be referred to as UTO-UCI. Optionally, the difference between UTO-UCI and CG-UCI is that UTO-UCI indicates the terminal's usage status for TO, while CG-UCI does not indicate the terminal's usage status for TO.

[0072] Optionally, in some embodiments, the aforementioned “network device configuration to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information” may include at least one of the following:

[0073] The network device is configured to jointly encode at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information;

[0074] The network device configuration multiplexes at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information.

[0075] Based on this, for example, in some embodiments, assuming that the network device is configured to jointly encode the first information and the second information, or the network device is configured to multiplex the first information and the second information, it means that the network device configures the terminal to use the same channel to simultaneously carry the first information and the second information.

[0076] Optionally, in some embodiments, the network device may configure the terminal to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information through a first signaling. Optionally, the first signaling may include at least one of the following:

[0077] Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling;

[0078] Downlink Control Information (DCI) signaling;

[0079] Media Access Control Control Element (MAC CE) signaling.

[0080] Optionally, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned channel may be: CG physical uplink shared channel (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, PUSCH).

[0081] Optionally, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned generated information (such as the first information, the second information, and the third information) can be understood as: encoding and generating the information and mapping the information to a channel for transmission.

[0082] Optionally, in some embodiments, when different two of the first information, the second information, and the third information are configured to be carried by the same channel, the method of generating the information may also be different, and this part will be described in detail in subsequent embodiments.

[0083] Step 202: In response to the network device not being configured to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information, discard one or more of the first information, the second information, and the third information.

[0084] For detailed description of the first information, the second information, and the third information, please refer to the above embodiment description.

[0085] Optionally, in some embodiments, the aforementioned “the network device is not configured to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information” may include at least one of the following:

[0086] The network device is not configured to jointly encode at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information;

[0087] The network device is not configured to multiplex at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information.

[0088] For example, in some embodiments, assuming that the network device is not configured to jointly encode the first information and the second information, or is not configured to multiplex the first information and the second information, it means that the network device has not configured the terminal to use the same channel to simultaneously carry the first information and the second information. At this time, the terminal does not use the same channel to carry the first information and the second information.

[0089] Optionally, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned discarded information (such as the first information, the second information, and the third information) can be understood as: not generating the information.

[0090] Optionally, in some embodiments, when different two of the first information, the second information, and the third information are not configured to be carried on the same channel, the method of discarding the information may also be different, and this part will be described in detail in subsequent embodiments.

[0091] Optionally, the communication method involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure may include at least one of steps 201 to 202. For example, step 201 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step 202 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, and steps 201+202 may be implemented as independent embodiments, but are not limited thereto.

[0092] In this embodiment or example, unless there is any contradiction, each step can be independent, arbitrarily combined or exchanged in order, the optional methods or optional examples can be arbitrarily combined, and can be arbitrarily combined with any steps of other embodiments or other examples.

[0093] In summary, in the communication method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to the network device being configured to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information, the terminal will generate at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information in a predetermined order; in response to the network device not being configured to use the same channel to carry at least two of the first information, the second information, and the third information, the terminal will discard one or more of the first information, the second information, and the third information, wherein the second information is used to indicate the terminal's usage status for TO; the first information and the third information are information other than the second information. It can be seen from this that the present disclosure provides a transmission method for the second information "used to indicate the usage status of TO" and other uplink information (such as the first information and the third information), ensuring that the terminal can successfully perform uplink transmission and ensuring communication stability.
