[0064] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the time domain unit type determination method, apparatus, terminal and other related equipment provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 1 is a flow chart of a method for determining a time domain unit type provided in an embodiment of the present application, and the method is applied to a terminal. Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0066] Step 201: When a terminal supports full-duplex operation, the terminal determines a time domain unit type corresponding to a target time domain unit according to first information.

[0067] The first information includes at least one of the following: configuration of a network-side device, instruction information, and scheduling information of the target time domain unit;

[0068] The time domain unit type includes any of the following:

[0069] A first time domain unit type, where the first time domain unit type is used to indicate that the terminal and the network side device only perform downlink transmission or uplink transmission in the target time domain unit;

[0070] A second time domain unit type, where the second time domain unit type is used to indicate that the terminal performs only downlink transmission or uplink transmission in the target time domain unit, and the network side device performs both downlink transmission and uplink transmission in the target time domain unit;

[0071] A third time domain unit type is used to indicate that the terminal and the network side device perform downlink transmission and uplink transmission simultaneously in the target time domain unit.

[0072] It should be noted that the terminal supporting full-duplex operation may also refer to the terminal supporting full-duplex mode, and the full-duplex operation or full-duplex mode means that the terminal can simultaneously perform downlink (Downlink, DL) transmission and uplink (Uplink, UL) transmission within one time unit.

[0073] In an embodiment of the present application, if the terminal supports full-duplex operation, the terminal can also switch to support half-duplex operation (that is, within a time unit, the terminal can only perform uplink transmission or downlink transmission). It should be noted that when the terminal performs half-duplex operation, the network side device can perform half-duplex operation (that is, within a time unit, the network side device can only perform uplink transmission or downlink transmission) or perform full-duplex operation (that is, within a time unit, the network side device can simultaneously perform uplink transmission and downlink transmission). The following three transmission scenarios are involved in an embodiment of the present application: 1. Full-duplex on the terminal side and full-duplex on the network side; 2. Half-duplex on the terminal side and full-duplex on the network side; 3. Half-duplex on the terminal side and half-duplex on the network side. In different transmission scenarios, the type of time domain unit corresponding to the terminal in the target time domain unit is also different. Among them, in the scenario of half-duplex on the terminal side and half-duplex on the network side, the time domain unit type corresponding to the terminal in the target time domain unit is also the first time domain unit type; in the scenario of half-duplex on the terminal side and full-duplex on the network side, the time domain unit type corresponding to the terminal in the target time domain unit is also the second time domain unit type; in the scenario of full-duplex on the terminal side and full-duplex on the network side, the time domain unit type corresponding to the terminal in the target time domain unit is also the third time domain unit type.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present application, if the terminal supports full-duplex operation, the terminal can determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the first information. For example, the terminal may determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the configuration or indication information of the network side device, that is, the network side device directly configures or indicates the time domain unit type corresponding to the terminal in the target time domain unit. For example, if the network side device configures the time domain unit type of the terminal in the target time domain unit as the first time domain unit type, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the first time domain unit type. For another example, if the indication information sent by the network side device indicates that the time domain unit type of the terminal in the target time domain unit is the first time domain unit type, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the first time domain unit type. Of course, the network side device may also configure or indicate that the time domain unit type of the terminal in the target time domain unit is the second time domain unit type or the third time domain unit type, which will not be listed in detail here.

[0075] Alternatively, the terminal may also determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit based on the scheduling information of the target time domain unit. For example, if the target time domain unit is configured to correspond to the third time domain unit type, the terminal may determine whether to switch to the second time domain unit type or the first time domain unit type based on the overlap between the dynamically scheduled time domain resources and the guard band (GB). Of course, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit based on the scheduling information of the target time domain unit, and there may be other possible situations, which will be specifically described in subsequent embodiments and will not be listed in detail here.

[0076] In the solution provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal supports full-duplex operation, the terminal can determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the configuration of the network side device, the indication information and at least one of the scheduling information of the target time domain unit, and then the terminal can select one of the first time domain unit type, the second time domain unit type and the third time domain unit type to perform corresponding transmission, which effectively improves the transmission flexibility of the terminal, and because the terminal supports full-duplex operation, it helps the terminal to reduce latency and improve throughput.

[0077] Optionally, when the first information includes scheduling information of the target time domain unit, the terminal determines, according to the first information, a time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit, including at least one of the following:

[0078] In the case of a semi-statically configured transmission with only one transmission direction on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to whether the scheduling information schedules a dynamically scheduled transmission opposite to the semi-statically configured transmission direction;

[0079] When the scheduling information indicates that there is a dynamically scheduled transmission on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the overlap between the dynamically scheduled transmission and the guard band GB;

[0080] When the scheduling information indicates that there is a dynamically scheduled transmission on the target time domain unit, and the dynamically scheduled transmission is located in a subband of the same transmission direction under full-duplex operation of the terminal, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type;

[0081] When the scheduling information indicates that at least one of a dynamic scheduling transmission and a semi-static configuration transmission exists on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the transmission situation of at least one of the dynamic scheduling transmission and the semi-static configuration transmission;

[0082] If the scheduling information indicates that there is a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission and a dynamically scheduled downlink transmission on the target time domain unit, and the dynamically scheduled uplink transmission is an uplink subband under the full-duplex operation of the terminal, and the dynamically scheduled downlink transmission is a downlink subband under the full-duplex operation of the terminal, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type;

[0083] In a case where the scheduling information is a cancellation indication for indicating cancellation of transmission, the terminal determines, according to the cancellation indication, that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type;

[0084] When the scheduling information indicates that the target time domain unit has no dynamically scheduled transmission, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type;

[0085] The first type is any one of the time domain unit types, and the second type is one of the time domain unit types that is different from the first type.

[0086] Optionally, the terminal may determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit based on the configuration of the network side device.

[0087] For example, please refer to Figure 3a, the network-side device configures UE1 to be a full DL time domain unit type (that is, the first time domain unit type) in the target time domain unit, and UE1 can only perform DL reception in the target time domain unit. The network-side device configures UE2 to be a full UL time domain unit type (that is, the first time domain unit type) in the target time domain unit, and UE2 can only perform UL transmission in the target time domain unit. The network-side device configures UE3 to be a second time domain unit type in the target time domain unit (at this time, the scheduled or configured DL transmission resources need to be limited to the DL subband on the network side, and the scheduled or configured UL transmission resources need to be limited to the UL subband on the network side. The DL subband or UL subband on the network side is also a subband for reception or transmission configured by the network or indicated to the terminal. In order to distinguish it from the full-duplex subband on the terminal side, it is referred to as the DL subband or UL subband on the network side). In the target time domain unit, UE3 can only perform UL transmission or DL ​​reception. The network side device configures UE4 and UE5 to be the third time domain unit type in the target time domain unit (at this time, the scheduled or configured DL transmission resources need to be limited to the DL subband on the UE side, and the scheduled or configured UL transmission resources need to be limited to the UL subband on the UE side. The DL subband and UL subband here are subbands configured by the network side for full-duplex operation on the terminal side, referred to as UE side subbands). In this target time domain unit, UE4 or UE5 can perform UL transmission in the UL subband and DL reception in the DL subband. Among them, the GBs of UE4 and UE5 may be different, which may be related to UE capabilities.

[0088] In an embodiment of the present application, the network side device can configure different time domain unit types for the terminal to meet different delay requirements and throughput requirements of the terminal.

[0089] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0090] The terminal receives a target configuration parameter of the time domain unit type, where the target configuration parameter includes at least one of the following:

[0091] a first configuration parameter, the first configuration parameter corresponding to the first time domain unit type;

[0092] a second configuration parameter, the second configuration parameter corresponding to the second time domain unit type;

[0093] A third configuration parameter, the third configuration parameter corresponds to the third time domain unit type.

[0094] Exemplarily, the network side device can configure the corresponding configuration parameters for different time domain unit types. Among them, the target configuration parameters include downlink transmission parameters and uplink transmission parameters, which are used for dynamic or semi-static transmission or reception, and measurement. It should be noted that the first configuration parameter, the second configuration parameter and the third configuration parameter can be different, or they can be the same.

[0095] For example, for a time domain unit configured as a first time domain unit type, that is, the time domain unit is a DL, UL or flexible time domain unit (slot or symbol), the network side device can configure the first configuration parameters for the UE, including associated DL transmission parameters and UL transmission parameters, for dynamic or semi-static transmission or reception, and measurement. For example, the network side device can configure the UE with semi-static semi-persistent scheduling (Semi-Persistent Scheduling, SPS) transmission and channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information Reference Signal, CSI-RS) reception based on the first configuration parameters; the network side device can configure the UE with semi-static authorization scheduling (Configured Grant, CG) transmission and sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission and corresponding power control parameters based on the first configuration parameters.

[0096] For a time domain unit configured as the second time domain unit type, the network side device can configure the second configuration parameters for the UE, including the associated DL transmission parameters and UL transmission parameters, for dynamic or semi-static transmission or reception, and measurement. For example, the network side device can configure the UE with semi-static SPS transmission and CSI-RS reception based on the second configuration parameters; and can configure the UE with semi-static CG transmission and SRS transmission and corresponding power control parameters based on the second configuration parameters.

[0097] For a time domain unit configured as the third time domain unit type, the network side device can configure the third configuration parameters for the UE, including the associated DL transmission parameters and UL transmission parameters, for dynamic or semi-static transmission or reception, and measurement. For example, the network side device can configure the UE with semi-static SPS transmission and CSI-RS reception based on the third configuration parameters; and can configure the UE with semi-static CG transmission and SRS transmission and corresponding power control parameters based on the third configuration parameters.

[0098] Optionally, for terminals that support full-duplex operation, the time domain and frequency domain resources for full-duplex operation can be configured by the network side equipment, such as the period of the time domain resources and whether each time slot and / or symbol within the period is full-duplex operation on the network side or full-duplex operation on the terminal side, that is, the network side equipment can configure the time domain unit type corresponding to different time slots and / or symbols of the terminal.

[0099] like Figure 3b As shown, the network side device configures slot 3 and slot 9 for the UE as the second time domain unit type, that is, in these time slots, the network side device can apply full-duplex operation, and the UE side applies half-duplex operation; the network side device configures slot 1, slot 4, and slot 6 for the UE as the third time domain unit type, that is, in these time slots, the network side device applies full-duplex operation, and the UE side applies full-duplex operation; for other slots, that is, slot 0, slot 2, slot 5, slot 7, and slot 8, the UE performs half-duplex operation (corresponding to the first time domain unit type), that is, these time slots are full DL or full UL or flexible slots (according to tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon, or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated indications), and can serve legacy UEs.

[0100] Optionally, the terminal may also receive indication information sent by the network side device, and determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit based on the indication information.

[0101] Exemplarily, the network side device can dynamically indicate the time domain unit type for the terminal. For a UE supporting full-duplex, the network side device can dynamically instruct the UE to switch between different time domain unit types, that is, to indicate whether the time domain unit type is the first time domain unit type, the second time domain unit type, or the third time domain unit type.

[0102] Optionally, the indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0103] UE-specific downlink control information (DCI);

[0104] Group common DCI (group common DCI).

[0105] Optionally, the dedicated DCI or the group common DCI includes a time domain unit type indication field, and the time domain unit type indication field is used to indicate the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit.

[0106] For example, for UE-specific DCI, the network side device may add a time domain unit type indication field in the UE's scheduling DCI or dedicated DCI, and the indication field may indicate a time domain unit type corresponding to a target time domain unit configured or indicated by the network side. The target time domain unit may be at least one of the following:

[0107] Scheduling time domain resources;

[0108] The slot or subslot where the scheduled time domain resource is located;

[0109] A time length configured by the network, for example, from the start symbol of the scheduled time domain resource to the next n symbols or time slot lengths, where n is configured by the network;

[0110] The start time of the slot or subslot where the scheduled time domain resource is located to the length of m symbols or time slots thereafter, where m is configured by the network.

[0111] Exemplarily, the dedicated DCI or group common DCI may add 2 bits as a time domain unit type indication field. For example, in the dedicated DCI or group common DCI, different time domain unit types may be indicated by different indexes, please refer to the following Table 1:

[0112] Table 1. Indication of time domain unit type in DCI

[0113] Index Time Domain Unit Type 00 First time domain unit type 01 Second time domain unit type 10 Third time domain unit type 11 Reserved

[0114] As shown in Table 1 above, if the index carried in the proprietary DCI or group-common DCI (for example, UE-specific DCI) is 00, it means that the DCI indicates the first time domain unit type; if the index carried in the proprietary DCI or group-common DCI is 01, it means that the DCI indicates the second time domain unit type; if the index carried in the proprietary DCI or group-common DCI is 10, it means that the DCI indicates the third time domain unit type.

[0115] It should be noted that the direction of the time domain unit may be determined according to the transmission direction of the scheduled resources. For example, if the scheduled resources are downlink transmissions, the direction of the time domain unit is also the downlink direction.

[0116] Optionally, the network side device may also configure a group common DCI to indicate (carry) the time domain unit type for a group of UEs to determine the time domain unit type, and the UE determines the time domain unit type of at least one time domain unit according to the indication of the group common DCI.

[0117] Exemplarily, the network side device configures or indicates the time domain unit index that can perform full-duplex operation (terminal side full-duplex or network side full-duplex), and then updates the type of the time domain unit using the group common DCI. Figure 3b As shown, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to slot1, slot3, slot4, slot6, and slot9 as a time slot that supports full-duplex operation. The network side device can indicate through the group common DCI, for example, 10110, indicating that the time domain unit type corresponding to slot1, slot4, and slot6 is the third time domain unit type (that is, these time slots support terminal side full-duplex operation), and the time domain unit type corresponding to slot3 and slot9 is the second time domain unit type (that is, these time slots support network side full-duplex operation).

[0118] Optionally, when the indication information includes the group common DCI, the group common DCI satisfies at least one of the following:

[0119] The group common DCI includes at least one first index, where the first index is used to indicate a time domain unit type corresponding to at least one symbol, and the target time domain unit includes the at least one symbol;

[0120] The group common DCI includes at least one second index, where the second index is used to indicate a time domain unit type corresponding to at least one time slot, and the target time domain unit includes the at least one time slot.

[0121] Exemplarily, the network-side device may indicate the time domain unit type with a symbol as the granularity through a group common DCI.

[0122] As shown in the following table, the network side device may configure the group common DCI to include multiple indexes, and one index may be used to indicate the time domain unit type corresponding to multiple symbols:

[0123] Table 2. Indication of the time domain unit type of the symbol by different indices

[0124]

[0125] Among them, D or U represents the first time domain unit type, gNB FD represents the second time domain unit type, and UE FD represents the third time domain unit type. It can be seen that the time domain unit type corresponding to each symbol can be indicated by one index, and the time domain unit types corresponding to multiple time slots can be indicated under different indexes.

[0126] For example, Figure 3cAs shown, the network side device can indicate that slot 1 applies index 0', slot 3 applies index 1', slot 4 applies index p', slot 6 applies index k', and slot 9 applies index n'. Then, taking slot 1' as an example, the time domain unit types corresponding to symbol 0 to symbol 13 in this time slot are D, D, D, UE FD, UE FD, UE FD, UE FD...U (as shown in Table 3 below).

[0127] Optionally, the network side device may also indicate the time domain unit type with time slot as the granularity through the group common DCI.

[0128] As shown in Table 3 below, the network side device may configure the group common DCI to include multiple indexes, and one index may be used to indicate the time domain unit type corresponding to each of the multiple time slots:

[0129] Table 3. Indication of time domain unit type for time slots by different indices

[0130]

[0131] Among them, k', m' can be configured by the network. D or U represents the first time domain unit type, gNB FD represents the second time domain unit type, and UE FD represents the third time domain unit type. It can be seen that the time domain unit type corresponding to different time slots can be indicated by one index.

[0132] Optionally, the group common DCI further includes a third index, and the third index is used to indicate at least one of the first indexes or at least one of the second indexes. That is, the network side device can configure the third index, and the third index is used to indicate at least one of the first indexes or at least one of the second indexes.

[0133] For example, the third index is index A, and the index A is used to indicate index 0, index 1, index p, index k, and index n; that is, the index A can also indicate multiple first indexes at the same time.

[0134] Optionally, the time domain unit type can be extended to indicate both network side full duplex and UE side full duplex. The network side device can be configured with a slot that performs only full-duplex operation, and indicates that each symbol in a slot performs UE side full duplex (ie, the third time domain unit type) or network side full duplex (ie, the second time domain unit type) through an index, as shown in Table 4 below:

[0135] Table 4. Index indication of time domain unit type for slots and symbols

[0136]

[0137] Among them, gNB FD represents full-duplex on the network side, that is, the second time domain unit type, and UE FD represents full-duplex on the UE side, that is, the third time domain unit type.

[0138] Optionally, the network-side device may also configure a monitoring period and offset of the DCI that carries the time domain unit type indication (ie, the terminal-specific DCI and the group-common DCI).

[0139] Exemplarily, the monitoring period may be [1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640, 1280, 2560] slot, or a symbol granularity, such as 2 symbols, 7 symbols, etc.

[0140] The size of the DCI carrying the time domain unit type indication can be the same as the size of other DCI payloads, for example, aligned with the slot format indication (SFI) payload size, for example, a maximum of n bits, where n can be 128 bits. If a DCI carrying a time domain unit type indication does not match the aligned DCI payload size, padding bits can be used to achieve bit alignment. If the size of the DCI carrying the time domain unit type indication is the same as the size of other DCIs, the network side can configure a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) for scrambling the DCI, for example, using the time domain unit type indication RNTI for scrambling. The RNTI is used to distinguish the DCI carrying the time domain unit type indication from other DCIs of the same payload size.

[0141] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal may also determine the time domain unit type according to whether there is dynamic scheduling in the opposite direction. The network may configure whether the terminal activates or deactivates this behavior.

[0142] Optionally, the terminal determines, according to whether the scheduling information schedules a dynamically scheduled transmission in a direction opposite to the semi-statically configured transmission, a time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit, including any one of the following:

[0143] If the terminal does not receive a dynamically scheduled transmission in a direction opposite to the semi-statically configured transmission, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type;

[0144] If the terminal receives a dynamically scheduled transmission in a direction opposite to the semi-statically configured transmission direction, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit is not switched.

[0145] Alternatively, if the scheduling information indicates that there is a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission and a dynamically scheduled downlink transmission on the target time domain unit, and the dynamically scheduled uplink transmission is an uplink subband under the full-duplex operation of the terminal, and the dynamically scheduled downlink transmission is a downlink subband under the full-duplex operation of the terminal, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type.

[0146] For example, for a terminal supporting full-duplex operation, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target slot of the terminal to be the third time domain unit type (the target time slot applies the third configuration parameter accordingly). If the terminal has only one semi-statically configured DL transmission in the target slot that falls within the downlink subband of the terminal's full-duplex operation, such as spsconfig 3 or csi-rs config 3, if the UE does not receive a dynamically scheduled UL transmission, the terminal switches to the second time domain unit type (the configuration parameter is switched to the second configuration parameter accordingly), for example, the UE receives according to sps config 2 or csi-rsconfig 2; if the UE receives a dynamically scheduled UL transmission that falls within the UL subband of the terminal's full-duplex operation, the UE does not switch the time domain unit type, that is, the UE still maintains the third time domain unit type, and the UE still receives or sends according to the third configuration parameter.

[0147] Alternatively, for a terminal that supports full-duplex operation, if the network side device configures the terminal to use a first time domain unit type or a second time domain unit type in the target slot, if the terminal receives two dynamic schedules in opposite directions, that is, a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission and a dynamically scheduled downlink transmission, and the dynamically scheduled uplink transmission is an uplink subband under the full-duplex operation of the terminal, and the dynamically scheduled downlink transmission is a downlink subband under the full-duplex operation of the terminal, then the terminal switches to a third time domain unit type.

[0148] In an embodiment of the present application, when the terminal is configured with semi-static configuration transmission, it can determine the time domain unit type according to whether there is dynamic scheduling in the opposite direction, for example, it can flexibly switch the time domain unit type, thereby effectively improving the transmission flexibility of the terminal.

[0149] Alternatively, the terminal may also determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the overlap between the dynamically scheduled target time domain resources and the GB.

[0150] Optionally, when the scheduling information indicates that there is a dynamically scheduled transmission on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to an overlap between the dynamically scheduled transmission and the guard band GB, including any one of the following:

[0151] In a case where the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type, if the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled transmission overlap only with the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the terminal side subband in the same transmission direction outside the terminal side subband in the same transmission direction, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the second time domain unit type;

[0152] In the case that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type, if the dynamically scheduled transmission is not located in the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction, and the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled transmission overlap with other frequency domain resources outside the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction except the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the first time domain unit type, and the terminal performs the dynamically scheduled transmission.

[0153] Alternatively, when the scheduling information indicates that there is a dynamically scheduled transmission on the target time domain unit, and the dynamically scheduled transmission is located in a subband of the same transmission direction under full-duplex operation of the terminal, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type.

[0154] For example, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit as the third time domain unit type, and when the UE only receives dynamically scheduled DL transmission, the terminal determines the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit in the following cases:

[0155] 1) If the dynamically scheduled DL transmission (e.g., a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or CSI-RS) falls on the DL subband on the UE side, the UE determines that the target time domain unit corresponds to a third time domain unit type, and can apply a third configuration parameter for reception in the target time domain unit, and receives the dynamically scheduled DL transmission;

[0156] 2) Please refer to Figure 3f, when the UE is configured as the third time domain unit type and the third configuration parameters are applied for transmission, if a dynamically scheduled DL transmission is received, and the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled DL transmission (such as the dynamically scheduled PDSCH or CSI-RS) overlap only with the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the DL subband on the UE side outside the DL subband on the UE side, then the UE determines that the target time domain unit is switched to the second time domain unit type, and the second configuration parameters can be applied for transmission in the target time domain unit;

[0157] 3) Please refer to Figure 3g (a) to (e), if the dynamically scheduled DL transmission (e.g., dynamically scheduled PDSCH or CSI-RS) is not located in the DL subband on the UE side, and the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled DL transmission overlap with other frequency domain resources outside the DL subband on the UE side except the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the DL subband on the UE side, for example, overlapping with the GB on the network side (e.g. Figure 3g (a)), or overlap with the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the UL subband on the UE side (e.g. Figure 3g (b)), or overlap with the UL subband on the UE side (e.g. Figure 3g (c), (e)) or falls within the UE-side subband in the opposite direction (e.g. Figure 3g (d)), that is, for situations other than 1) and 2) above, the UE determines that the target time domain unit corresponds to the first time domain unit type, and the first configuration parameter can be applied to the target time domain unit for transmission, that is, the dynamically scheduled DL transmission is received based on the first configuration parameter.

[0158] It should be noted that the above description is based on the example of dynamically scheduled DL transmission on the UE side. When the UE side receives dynamically scheduled UL transmission, the same mechanism as above can also be applied for processing.

[0159] Optionally, when the scheduling information indicates that at least one of a dynamic scheduling transmission and a semi-static configuration transmission exists on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the transmission situation of at least one of the dynamic scheduling transmission and the semi-static configuration transmission, including at least one of the following:

[0160] When the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type and the scheduling information indicates that there is a semi-statically configured transmission in one transmission direction on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type;

[0161] When the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type, and the scheduling information indicates that there is semi-static downlink transmission and semi-static uplink transmission on the target time domain unit, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type;

[0162] When the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type, the scheduling information indicates that there are semi-static configuration transmission and dynamic scheduling transmission on the target time domain unit, and the semi-static configuration transmission and the dynamic scheduling transmission are in opposite directions, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the frequency domain resource position of the dynamic scheduling transmission.

[0163] For example, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit as the third time domain unit type. When the UE is only configured with semi-static DL transmission (such as SPS, PDSCH or CSI-RS), the UE determines that the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type, and the UE can apply the third configuration parameters for receiving and sending.

[0164] Alternatively, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit to the third time domain unit type. When the UE is configured with semi-static DL transmission and semi-static UL transmission at the same time, the UE determines that the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type, and the UE can apply the third configuration parameters for receiving and sending.

[0165] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0166] If the configured semi-static transmission overlaps with any GB or overlaps with a subband in the opposite transmission direction, the terminal discards the semi-static transmission or only transmits frequency domain resources within the terminal-side subband in the same transmission direction.

[0167] For example, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit as the third time domain unit type. When the UE is only configured with semi-static DL transmission, if the semi-static DL transmission overlaps with any GB (GB on the network side or GB on the terminal side) or overlaps with the UL subband, the UE can choose to discard the semi-static DL transmission, or only transmit the frequency domain resources falling within the terminal side DL subband, for example, it can be based on rate matching or puncture for transmission.

[0168] Alternatively, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit to be the third time domain unit type. When the UE is configured with semi-static DL transmission and semi-static UL transmission at the same time, if the semi-static DL transmission overlaps with any GB (GB on the network side or GB on the terminal side), or the semi-static DL transmission overlaps with the UL subband, the terminal discards the semi-static DL transmission, or only transmits the frequency domain resources falling within the DL subband on the terminal side; or, if the semi-static UL transmission overlaps with any GB (GB on the network side or GB on the terminal side), or the semi-static UL transmission overlaps with the DL subband, the terminal discards the semi-static UL transmission, or only transmits the frequency domain resources falling within the UL subband on the terminal side.

[0169] It should be noted that, for the semi-static transmission that does not overlap with the GB and the sub-band in the opposite direction, the terminal may apply the third configuration parameter to receive or send the non-overlapping semi-static transmission.

[0170] Optionally, when the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type, and the scheduling information indicates that there is a semi-static configuration transmission and a dynamic scheduling transmission on the target time domain unit, and the semi-static configuration transmission and the dynamic scheduling transmission are in opposite directions, the terminal determines the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the frequency domain resource position of the dynamic scheduling transmission, including any one of the following:

[0171] If the dynamically scheduled transmission is located in the terminal-side subband of the same transmission direction, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the third time domain unit type, and performs the dynamically scheduled transmission; Figure 3h As shown, the terminal receives a dynamically scheduled DL transmission (e.g., a dynamically scheduled PDSCH or CSI-RS) in the target time domain unit. If the dynamically scheduled DL transmission is located in the DL subband on the UE side, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is a third time domain unit type;

[0172] If the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled transmission only overlap with the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the terminal side subband in the same transmission direction outside the terminal side subband in the same transmission direction, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the second time domain unit type, and discards the semi-static transmission;

[0173] If the dynamically scheduled transmission is not located in the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction, and the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled transmission overlap with other frequency domain resources outside the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction except the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is the first time domain unit type, the terminal performs the dynamically scheduled transmission, and discards the semi-static transmission.

[0174] For example, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit as the third time domain unit type. If the UE is configured with semi-static DL transmission and dynamically scheduled UL transmission at the same time, the UE determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit may include the following cases:

[0175] 1) If the dynamically scheduled UL transmission falls within the UL subband on the UE side, the UE determines that the target time domain unit corresponds to the third time domain unit type, and the UE may apply the third configuration parameter for receiving or sending, and perform the dynamically scheduled UL transmission;

[0176] 2) If the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled UL transmission overlap only with the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the UL subband on the UE side outside the UL subband on the UE side, the UE determines that the target time domain unit corresponds to the second time domain unit type, and the UE can apply the second configuration parameter for reception or transmission, and perform the dynamically scheduled UL transmission, and discard the semi-static DL transmission;

[0177] 3) If the dynamically scheduled UL transmission does not fall within the UL subband on the UE side, and the frequency domain resources of the dynamically scheduled UL transmission overlap with other frequency domain resources outside the UL subband on the UE side except the frequency domain resources between the GB on the network side and the UL subband on the UE side, for example, overlapping with the GB on the network side, or overlapping with the DL subband on the UE side, etc., that is, other cases of dynamically scheduled UL transmission except for 1) and 2) above, the UE determines that the target time domain unit corresponds to the first time domain unit type, and the UE can apply the first configuration parameters for receiving or sending, and discard the semi-static DL transmission.

[0178] The frequency domain resources of the semi-static DL transmission at least partially overlap with the DL subband at the UE side, or completely fall within the DL subband.

[0179] Optionally, the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is configured as the third time domain unit type, the scheduling information indicates that the terminal has semi-static configuration transmission and dynamic scheduling transmission on the target time domain unit, and the semi-static configuration transmission and the dynamic scheduling transmission are in opposite directions, the method also includes any one of the following:

[0180] If the semi-static configuration transmission is located in the terminal side subband of the same transmission direction, the terminal performs the semi-static configuration transmission;

[0181] If the semi-statically configured transmission partially overlaps with the terminal-side subband in the same transmission direction, the terminal discards the semi-statically configured transmission or only transmits frequency domain resources in the terminal-side subband in the same transmission direction.

[0182] For example, for the target time domain unit, the network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit to the third time domain unit type. If the UE is configured with semi-static DL transmission and dynamically scheduled UL transmission at the same time, if the semi-static DL transmission is located in the DL subband on the UE side, the UE performs the semi-static DL transmission; if the semi-static DL transmission partially overlaps with the DL subband on the UE side, the UE discards the semi-static DL transmission, or transmits the transmission that falls within the DL subband on the UE side (which can be transmitted based on rate matching or puncture).

[0183] It should be noted that the above is only an example, and when the UE is configured with semi-static UL transmission and dynamically scheduled DL transmission at the same time, the same mechanism as the above method can also be applied for processing.

[0184] In an embodiment of the present application, the UE can determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit according to the transmission status of at least one of the dynamic scheduling transmission and the semi-static configuration transmission, and determine the transmission behavior of the terminal based on the determined time domain unit type, thereby effectively improving the transmission flexibility of the terminal.

[0185] In the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal receives a cancellation indication for indicating the cancellation of transmission, the terminal may also determine that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type according to the cancellation indication. For example, the network side device may instruct the terminal to cancel transmission in one direction in the target time domain unit, and the terminal receives the indication and considers that the time domain unit type of the time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type.

[0186] It should be noted that the cancellation indication can be a group common DCI or a UE specific DCI. Exemplarily, the network side device can configure a group common DCI or a UE specific DCI for canceling transmission in one direction. When the UE receives the DCI, it considers that the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit needs to be switched, for example, from the third time domain unit type to the second time domain unit type or the first time domain unit type. It should be noted that the DCI is used to indicate the cancellation of all UL transmissions or all DL transmissions of the target time domain unit.

[0187] Optionally, the cancellation indication is used to indicate cancellation of at least one of the length and granularity of the target time domain unit for transmission. Exemplarily, the network side device may configure or indicate the length and granularity of the target time domain unit, for example, the network side device indicates that the length of the target time domain unit is L, the granularity is M, and the target time domain unit is configured as a third time domain unit type, such as Figure 3d As shown, assuming that M=3 (i.e., the first three parts of L), the cancellation indication is used to indicate the cancellation of UL transmission, then the first three parts of the target time domain unit are switched to the second time domain unit type, and the fourth part is still the third time domain unit type. Furthermore, by configuring the length and granularity of the target time domain unit through the network side device, the terminal can switch the time domain unit type more precisely and flexibly.

[0188] It should be noted that L may be a processing time length related to UE capability configured by the network side device, for example, L=Tproc2+d, where Tproc2 is the UE PUSCH preparation time, and d is a value related to UE capability.

[0189] Optionally, the terminal determines, according to the cancellation indication, that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is switched from a first type to a second type, including:

[0190] The terminal determines, according to an overlap between the area indicated by the cancellation indication and the GB, that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type.

[0191] For example, assuming that the cancellation indication is used to indicate the cancellation of the UL transmission of the target time domain unit, if the UL transmission overlaps with the GB on the network side, the UE that receives the cancellation indication considers that the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type, for example, from the third time domain unit type to the first time domain unit type.

[0192] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal may also determine the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit based on whether a dynamically scheduled transmission is received. Specifically, when the terminal receives indication information indicating that the target time domain unit has no dynamically scheduled transmission, the terminal determines that the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type based on the indication information.

[0193] Exemplarily, when the terminal supports full-duplex operation, the network side device can indicate or configure whether the time domain unit supporting full-duplex operation of the terminal has dynamically scheduled transmission. If the network side device indicates that there is no dynamically scheduled transmission (including dynamically scheduled DL transmission or dynamically scheduled UL transmission) in the target time domain unit, the terminal considers that the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit is switched from the first type to the second type. Optionally, the indication information can be a group common DCI or a UE specific DCI, that is, the network side device can indicate that the target time domain unit has no dynamically scheduled transmission through a group common DCI or a UE specific DCI.

[0194] For example, see Figure 3e The network side device configures the time domain unit type corresponding to slot 1, slot 3, slot 4, slot 6, and slot 9 as the third time domain unit type for the UE supporting full-duplex, and the network side device configures a group common DCI or UE-specific DCI for the UE to indicate whether a slot has UL scheduling or DL ​​scheduling. For example, for slot 3 and slot 9, the network side device indicates that there is no UL scheduling through the above DCI, then the UE can consider that these two time slots are switched from the third time domain unit type to the second time domain unit type, and use the second configuration parameters to receive DL transmission in these two time slots.

[0195] In the embodiment of the present application, by indicating whether the target time domain unit has a dynamically scheduled transmission in one direction, the terminal can determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit, thereby effectively improving the transmission flexibility of the terminal.

[0196] In the embodiment of the present application, the frequency domain configuration corresponding to the full-duplex operation supported by the terminal satisfies at least one of the following:

[0197] The GB on the terminal side is a GB configured by the network side device for full-duplex operation on the terminal side;

[0198] The GB of the network side device is a GB configured by the network side device for full-duplex operation on the network side;

[0199] The subband on the terminal side is an uplink subband or a downlink subband configured by the network side device for full-duplex operation on the terminal side;

[0200] The subband of the network side device is an uplink subband or a downlink subband configured by the network side device for full-duplex operation on the network side;

[0201] The uplink subband size of the terminal side is a subset of the uplink subband size of the network side device;

[0202] The downlink subband size of the terminal side is a subset of the downlink subband size of the network side device;

[0203] The GB on the terminal side is a superset of the GB on the network side device.

[0204] For example, the network side device may configure the UE side UL subband frequency domain position to be the same as the network side full-duplex UL subband frequency domain position, and the network side device may not configure the UE specific UL subband frequency domain position for each UE separately, and the network side device may configure the UE specific GB size (frequency domain position). It should be noted that the network side device configures the UE specific UL subband and UE specific GB, which is beneficial to supporting UEs with different bandwidth capabilities.

[0205] In the embodiment of the present application, the effective time of the time domain unit type is located after the last symbol of the first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and the first PDCCH is used to indicate the time domain unit type.

[0206] For the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) processing capability 2, the last symbol T′ proc,2 It can be obtained according to the following formula:

[0207] T proc,2 =max((N2+d 2,1 )(2048+144)·κ2 -μ ·T C ,d 2,2 )

[0208] Among them, T proc,2 is the last symbol interval, Youdeda, for the subcarrier spacing of PDCCH and the minimum subcarrier configuration μ UL The minimum value of μ UL Provided by the scs-SpecificCarrierList parameter of the higher-level parameter FrequencyInfoUL or FrequencyInfoUL-SIB. The UE does not expect to receive a signal in the last symbol interval T of the control resource set (CORESET) of the PDCCH carrying the time domain unit type. proc,2 (Assume d 2,1 =0) before canceling PUSCH transmission or SRS transmission.

[0209] In the embodiment of the present application, the network side device may further configure the terminal to switch the time domain unit type of the target time domain unit from the first type to the second type when a predefined condition is met.

[0210] It should be noted that the UE may have some bursty UL services that the network-side device is unaware of. For example, when the network-side device schedules or configures DL transmission, if the UE needs to send a physical random access channel (PRACH), a scheduling request (SR) or a buffer status report (BSR), etc. at the same time, for UEs that support full-duplex operation, the UE can be triggered to switch to the third time domain unit type through predefined conditions.

[0211] For example, for a target time domain unit configured as the second time domain unit type, if the frequency domain resources of the DL transmission scheduled or configured for the UE fall in the DL subband of the target time domain unit, or a semi-statically configured UL transmission such as PRACH, CG PUSCH, the frequency domain resources of the PUCCH configured to carry SR fall in the UL subband of the target time domain unit, then the terminal switches the target time domain unit from the second time domain unit type to the third time domain unit type.

[0212] The solution provided in the embodiment of the present application is that for a terminal supporting full-duplex operation, the terminal can determine the time domain unit type corresponding to the target time domain unit based on the above-mentioned multiple situations, so that the terminal can switch among different time domain unit types, thereby effectively improving the transmission flexibility of the terminal. Compared with a terminal that can only perform half-duplex operation, the terminal supporting full-duplex operation in the present application can also effectively improve system resource utilization and reduce latency.
