Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a transmission method, apparatus, communication equipment and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] Uplink synchronization means that in the same cell, uplink signals sent by terminals at different locations using the same time slot arrive at the network side at the same time, that is, signals from different terminals in the same time slot are synchronized when arriving at the network side equipment, thereby reducing uplink multi-access interference and multipath interference between terminals in the cell, thereby improving communication quality. It can be seen that uplink synchronization is crucial for communication between terminals and the network side.

It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example for introduction, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.

[0097] In order to facilitate understanding of the transmission method of the embodiment of the present application, the following related technologies are first introduced:

[0098] 1. Uplink (UL) beam training

[0099] The network uses the parameter "SRS-ResourceSet" in the Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling to configure one or more SRS resource sets for the UE. For each SRS resource set, the network uses the parameter "SRS-Resource" in the RRC signaling to configure at least one SRS resource, where the maximum number is determined by the UE capability.

[0100] The purpose of the SRS resource set is determined by the parameter "usage" in the SRS-ResourceSet in the RRC signaling. When the network sets the usage to BeamManagement, for each SRS resource set, only one SRS resource can be sent at an uplink transmission time. SRS resources in different SRS resource sets can be transmitted simultaneously by the UE.

[0101] The network implements the beam indication of SRS by configuring the spatial relation between the reference signal (reference RS) and the target uplink monitoring reference signal (target SRS). The RRC parameter used is the spatial relation information (SpatialRelationInfo), which further includes the reference signal identifier (reference RS ID). The reference RS can be: synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel block (Synchronization Signal / PBCH Block) (or synchronization signal block (SSB)), channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information-Reference Signal, CSI-RS), SRS.

[0102] Specifically, when the SRS type is periodic SRS, the network configures space (spatial relation) for the SRS resource through RRC signaling; when the SRS type is semi-persistent SRS, the network activates one from a set of spatial relations configured by RRC through a Media Access Control Control Element (MAC CE) command; when the SRS type is aperiodic SRS, the network configures spatialrelation for the SRS resource through RRC signaling. For aperiodic SRS, the UE receives downlink control information (DCI) sent by the network side, and the network uses at least one state in the DCI field to trigger at least one of the configured SRS resource sets.

[0103] It should be noted that the spatial filter, spatial domain transmission filter, transmission configuration indication state, quasi co-location (QCL) type D related information, etc. can characterize the above-mentioned beam.

[0104] 2. Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) Transmission

[0105] In the related art, PRACH transmission includes a contention random access procedure and a non-contention random access procedure.

[0106] In the contention-based 4-step random access procedure (RACH), the UE first sends Msg-1 (i.e., random access preamble) to the network;

[0107] Secondly, after the network detects the Preamble, it will send Msg2 or Random Access Response (RAR) message;

[0108] Msg2 is scheduled by DCI scrambled by Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identity (RA-RNTI). RA-RNTI is related to the PRACH transmission occasion (RO) resource used by the UE to send Msg-1, and is calculated as follows: RA-RNTI = 1 + s_id + 14 × t_id + 14 × 80 × f_id + 14 × 80 × 8 × ul_carrier_id;

[0109] Here, s_id represents the index of the first OFDM symbol of the PRACH occasion (0≤s_id<14);

[0110] t_id represents the index of the first time slot of the PRACH opportunity in the system frame (0≤t_id<80), where the subcarrier spacing used to determine t_id is based on the value of μ, where μ={0,1,2,3} or μ={5,6}, or, t_id is the index of the 120 kHz time slot in the system frame containing the PRACH opportunity (0≤t_id<80);

[0111] f_id represents the index of the PRACH occasion in the frequency domain (0≤f_id<8);

[0112] ul_carrier_id indicates the UL carrier used for random access preamble transmission (0 for normal uplink (NUL) carrier, 1 for supplementary uplink (SUL) carrier).

[0113] The Msg2 message contains the number of the preamble code detected by the network (RACH preamble ID, RAPID), and the uplink radio resources allocated to the physical uplink shared channel (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, PUSCH) for the UE to send Msg3. Optionally, the RAR grant field is shown in Table 1 below:

[0114] Table 1 RAR grant fields

[0115]

[0116]

[0117] It is worth pointing out that Table 1 is only an exemplary description of the RAR authorization field, and not all of the control information listed in Table 1 is necessarily included in the RAR authorization field, and the control information included in the RAR authorization field is not limited to those listed in Table 1. Accordingly, the number of bits corresponding to the control information in the RAR authorization field is not limited to the examples in Table 1.

[0118] Once again, after receiving Msg2, the UE confirms that at least one of the numbers of the Preamble carried in Msg2 is consistent with the number of the Preamble it sent, and then sends Msg3 containing contention resolution information according to the resources indicated by the RAR; if the network does not receive Msg3, it can schedule the retransmission of the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) of Msg3 in the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) scrambled by the Temporary Cell Network Temporary Identity (TC-RNTI). After receiving Msg3, the network will send Msg4 containing contention resolution information; after receiving Msg4, the UE confirms that the contention resolution information is consistent with the one it sent in Msg3, and the 4-step random access is completed.

[0119] For the contention random access process, different UEs randomly select Preamble for transmission, so different UEs may select the same Preamble to send on the same time-frequency radio resources (i.e., RO resources). This situation can be understood as a UE Preamble conflict. In this case, different UEs will receive the same RAR. At this time, different UEs will transmit Msg3 PUSCH according to the scheduling information in the RAR UL grant. Among them, the network can only decode the PUSCH (including contention resolution information) sent by one UE on a Msg3 PUSCH scheduling resource, so the network will include the contention resolution information received in Msg3 in Msg4. If the contention resolution information in Msg4 received by the UE matches the contention resolution information sent by the UE in Msg3 PUSCH, the UE considers that the contention resolution is successful. If it does not match, the contention resolution is considered unsuccessful, and the UE will reselect resources and make the next random access attempt.

[0120] 3. Selection of random access resources

[0121] In NR, a cell can configure multiple frequency division multiplexing (FDM) ROs at a time domain location for transmitting PRACH. At a time, the number of FDM ROs can be: {1, 2, 4, 8}, which is configured and determined by the high-level parameter "msg1-FDM". Figure 2 As shown, at one moment, there are 8 RO resources distributed on different frequencies.

[0122] The time domain position of the RO that can send the Preamble is determined by the PRACH configuration index (PRACHConfigurationIndex), and the frequency domain resources are determined by the high-level parameters (msg1-FDM). RA ∈{0,1,…,M-1}, where M is equal to the high-level parameter msg1-FDM. The maximum number of preamble sets on a RO is 64. Figure 2 As shown, the RO resources are numbered RO#0 to RO#7 in order from low to high frequency.

[0123] In NR, there is an association between the RO and the SSB (i.e., SS / PBCH block) actually sent. One SSB may be associated with multiple ROs, or multiple SSBs may be associated with one RO (in this case, different SSBs correspond to different Preamble subsets on the RO), which is configured by the network through the parameter "number of SSBs mapped to each RO (ssb-perRACH-OccasionAndCB-PreamblesPerSSB)", as shown in Table 2 below.

[0124] Table 2 Configuration of ssb-perRACH-OccasionAndCB-PreamblesPerSSB

[0125]

[0126] Usually, the base station can use different beams to send different SSBs, where the number of SSBs is configured by the "ssb-PositionsInBurst" parameter. For FR2, the maximum number of SSBs is 64. The UE selects the RO or "RO and preamble combination" associated with the SSB with a good signal according to the strength of the received downlink beam or SSB to send Msg1. In this way, the network can determine the SSB selected by the UE based on the RO or "RO and preamble combination" of the received Preamble, and send Msg2 on the downlink beam corresponding to the SSB to ensure the reception quality of the downlink signal.

[0127] like Figure 2, the number of ROs of FDM at a time is 8, the number of SSBs is 4, and each SSB is associated with 2 ROs. The UE first selects an SSB with RSRP higher than the threshold based on the reference signal received power (RSRP) of the received beam (SSB); if the RSRP of multiple SSBs is higher than the threshold, the terminal can select any SSB with RSRP higher than the threshold; when there is no SSB with RSRP higher than the threshold, the UE selects an SSB based on the implementation. If the UE determines to send PRACH or Msg1 or Preamble on the RO corresponding to SSB#0, the UE selects an RO from RO#0 and RO#1 and selects a Preamble for transmission.

[0128] The transmission 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.

[0129] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a transmission method, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method may include the following steps 301 to 302:

[0130] Step 301: The terminal determines Y random access channel opportunity RO groups associated with the same target signal.

[0131] Among them, the target signal can be selected according to the channel quality of the target signal (such as RSRP), for example, the target signal is the one with the best channel quality among multiple target signals received by the terminal, or the target signal is one of the multiple target signals received by the terminal whose channel quality is higher than the first threshold; it can be understood that the target signal can also be indicated by network signaling.

[0132] Optionally, the target signal is one of SSB, channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information-Reference Signal, CSI-RS), and sounding reference signal (Sounding Reference Signal, SRS).

[0133] It should be noted that if the target signal is SRS, the network side will configure RACH resources associated with SRS.

[0134] It should be noted that the Y RO groups may include at least some of the ROs associated with the target signal. For example, multiple ROs may be randomly selected from the ROs associated with the target signal, and the selected multiple ROs may be divided into at least one group.

[0135] In addition, the Y RO groups may be divided according to the order of the ROs in the time domain, for example, every v1 adjacent ROs belong to one group, and v1 is greater than 0. It is understandable that the division method of the Y RO groups is not limited to this.

[0136] In addition, Y is an integer greater than 0. Optionally, the value of Y may be one of 1, 2, and 4; further, the value of Y may be configured or indicated by the network side.

[0137] Step 302: The terminal sends a preamble sequence on Y RO packets.

[0138] The preamble sequence sent by each group of ROs is the same.

[0139] For example, when Y=1, the same preamble sequence is sent on the RO in this packet;

[0140] For example, when Y=2, the first preamble sequence is sent on the ROs in the first group, and the second preamble sequence is sent on the ROs in the second group. The first preamble sequence is different from the second preamble sequence.

[0141] For example, when Y=4, the first preamble sequence is sent on the ROs in the first group, the second preamble sequence is sent on the ROs in the second group, the third preamble sequence is sent on the ROs in the third group, and the fourth preamble sequence is sent on the ROs in the fourth group. The first preamble sequence to the fourth preamble sequence are different.

[0142] It should be noted that in step 302, the preamble sequence may be sent via Msg1 or MsgA, wherein Msg1 is a random access request message in four-step random access, and MsgA is a random access request message in two-step random access.

[0143] It can be seen that in an embodiment of the present application, the terminal can send a preamble sequence on at least one group of ROs associated with the same target signal, and the preamble sequences sent on the ROs in the same group are the same. In this way, the same preamble sequence can be sent on multiple ROs, and at least one preamble sequence can be sent, which increases the probability of multiple TRPs receiving the preamble sequence, thereby laying the foundation for simultaneously achieving uplink synchronization of the terminal with multiple TRPs, and further improving the uplink synchronization efficiency in the multi-TRP scenario.

[0144] Optionally, the terminal sends a preamble sequence on Y RO packets, including:

[0145] Item A-1: ​​When Y=1, the terminal transmits preamble sequences on ROs in multiple subsets of the RO group, respectively, wherein the transmit beams on ROs in the same subset are the same, and the transmit beams on ROs in different subsets are different;

[0146] Item A-2: When Y is greater than 1, the terminal uses different transmission beams to send preamble sequences on Y RO groups respectively, wherein the transmission beams corresponding to the same RO group are the same, and the transmission beams corresponding to different groups are different. When Y=1, the subset division method of the RO in a group can be, for example, that every adjacent v2 ROs in a group belong to a subset, or, the ROs with odd indexes in a group belong to a subset, and the ROs with even indexes belong to a subset.

[0147] It can be seen from the above item A-1 that at least some of the ROs associated with the same target signal can form a group, and then the ROs in the group can be divided into multiple subsets, so that the ROs in the same subset can use the same transmission beam to send the preamble sequence, and the ROs in different subsets use different beams to send the preamble sequence. For example, the group includes four ROs, such as RO-1, RO-2, RO-3, and RO-4. If every two adjacent ROs belong to a subset, the same preamble sequence is sent on RO-1 to RO-4, and the first transmission beam is used on RO-1 and RO-2, and the second transmission beam is used on RO-3 and RO-4, and the first transmission beam is different from the second transmission beam.

[0148] It can be known from the above item A-2 that at least some of the ROs associated with the same target signal can form multiple groups, and the same transmission beam is used to send the same preamble sequence in the same group, and the preamble sequences sent in different groups are different, and the transmission beams are also different. For example, RO-5 and RO-6 belong to one group, and RO-7 and RO-8 belong to another group. Then, the third transmission beam is used to send the fifth preamble sequence on RO-5 and RO-6, and the fourth transmission beam is used to send the sixth preamble sequence on RO-7 and RO-8. The third transmission beam is different from the fourth transmission beam, and the fifth preamble sequence is different from the sixth preamble sequence.

[0149] It can be seen from this that in the embodiment of the present application, the preamble sequence can be sent to multiple TRPs at the same time through RACH beam scanning, thereby further improving the probability of the preamble sequence being received.

[0150] Optionally, the terminal sends a preamble sequence on Y RO packets, including:

[0151] Based on at least one of the following, the terminal sends a preamble on Y RO packets:

[0152] A first signaling for configuring a random access channel RACH;

[0153] First indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate a sending mode of a preamble sequence or a value of Y;

[0154] The second indication information is used to indicate at least one of a plurality of beams corresponding to different subsets of the same RO group, a plurality of beams corresponding to different RO groups, a first association relationship between Y RO groups and a plurality of beams, and a second association relationship between different subsets of the same RO group and a plurality of beams.

[0155] Here, the first signaling may be downlink control information (Downlink Control Information, DCI).

[0156] It can be seen that if there is at least one of the first signaling configured with RACH, the first indication information and the second indication information, the preamble sequence is sent on Y RO packets based on the method described in items A-1 and A-2 above.

[0157] Optionally, a physical downlink control channel PDCCH signaling for triggering a random access channel RACH includes at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information;

[0158] or,

[0159] The uplink monitoring reference signal SRS resource indication field in the PDCCH signaling that triggers the RACH includes at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information.

[0160] Exemplarily, a new indication field may be introduced in the PDCCH signaling of the RACH to indicate the first indication information; wherein the network side sends the PDCCH signaling to instruct the terminal how to send the RACH, and in the embodiment of the present application, at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information may also be indicated by the PDCCH signaling. That is, if the PDCCH signaling of the RACH includes at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information, the preamble sequence is sent on Y RO groups based on the method described in the above items A-1 and A-2.

[0161] or

[0162] Alternatively, a new indication field may be introduced into the SRS resource indication field to indicate at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information; thus, if the SRS resource indication field includes information for indicating at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information, a leading sequence is sent on Y RO groups based on the method described in items A-1 and A-2 above.

[0163] Optionally, Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling indicates whether at least one of the first indication information and the second indication information exists.

[0164] That is, the first RRC signaling can be used to indicate whether the PDCCH signaling of the RACH includes the first indication information; the second RRC signaling can be used to indicate whether the PDCCH signaling of the RACH includes the second indication information; the third RRC signaling can be used to indicate whether the SRS resource indication field includes the first indication information; and the fourth RRC signaling can be used to indicate whether the SRS resource indication field includes the second indication information.

[0165] Here, the first RRC signaling to the fourth RRC signaling may be the same or different.

[0166] Optionally, item C-1: when Y=1, the spatial relationship of the m1th RO of the n1th subset or the RO of the n1th subset is determined according to the target signal, wherein the ROs in the group are divided into multiple subsets, and n1 and m1 are both integers greater than zero;

[0167] Item C-2: When Y is greater than 1, the spatial relationship of the m2th RO of the n2th group or the RO in the n2th group is determined according to the target signal, where n2 and m2 are both integers greater than zero.

[0168] In the case of Y=1 above, if each adjacent v2 ROs belong to a subset, then if m1=1, the spatial relationship of the first RO or the continuous v2 ROs starting from the first RO in the group is determined according to the target signal; here, if the target signal is sent by the first network side device, then in this case, the direction range indicated by the spatial relationship of the first RO or the continuous v2 ROs starting from the first RO covers the direction of the terminal pointing to the first network side device, that is, the transmission beam on the first RO or the continuous v2 ROs starting from the first RO points to the first network side device, that is, the device pointed to by the transmission beam on the first RO or the continuous v2 ROs starting from the first RO, and the path loss between the terminal is used as the reference for calculating the path loss deviation. The reference is obtained based on the target signal measurement.

[0169] In the case where Y is greater than 1, for example, n2=1, m2=1, the spatial relationship of the first RO in the first group or the first group RO is determined according to the target signal; here, if the target signal is sent by the first network side device, then in this case, the direction range indicated by the spatial relationship of the first RO in the first group or the first group RO covers the direction of the terminal pointing to the first network side device, that is, the first RO in the first group or the transmission beam on the first group RO points to the first network side device, that is, the first RO in the first group or the first group RO The transmission beam on the device points to the first network side device, that is, the path loss between the device and the terminal is used as the reference for calculating the path loss deviation. The reference is obtained based on the target signal measurement.

[0170] It should be noted that in a multi-TRP scenario, some TRPs can both send and receive, but UL-only TRPs (transmit and receive point) cannot send and can only receive. These UL-only TRPs cannot send downlink signals, so the terminal cannot measure the path loss between it and these UL-only TRPs. However, if the benchmark for the path loss deviation and the deviation of the path loss between the terminal and the UL-only TRP relative to the standard value are known, the path loss between the terminal and the UL-only TRP can be obtained. Through the above C-1 and C-2 items, the benchmark for calculating the path loss deviation can be told to the network.

[0171] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0172] The terminal receives scheduling information of a random access response, wherein the scheduling information is scrambled using first information;

[0173] The terminal receives the random access response according to the scheduling information;

[0174] The first information includes a random access radio network temporary identifier RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO of each group in the group to which the first target RO belongs, the first target RO includes the RO where the received preamble sequence is located, and m3 is an integer greater than zero.

[0175] It can be seen that after sending the preamble sequence (ie Msg1), the terminal can receive the scheduling information of the random access response (ie Msg2 or RAR) sent by the first network side device, and thus receive the random access response sent by the first network side device according to the scheduling information.

[0176] It should be noted that the above-mentioned scheduling information in the embodiment of the present application is scrambled by using the first information, and the first information includes the RA-CRNTI calculated from the m3th RO in the group to which the RO where the received preamble sequence belongs belongs.

[0177] For example, when Y=1, a preamble sequence sent by the terminal is received, and there is only one group in which the preamble sequence is located. In this way, the first information includes the RA-CRNTI calculated based on the m3th RO in the group. In this case, after receiving the above scheduling information, the terminal needs to use the RA-CRNTI calculated based on the m3th RO in the group for descrambling.

[0178] or,

[0179] For example, when Y is greater than 1, in the preamble sequence sent by the terminal, the received preamble sequence is in the first group and the second group respectively, then the first information includes: the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the first group, and the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the second group. In this case, after receiving the above scheduling information, the terminal needs to use the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the first group and the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the second group for descrambling.

[0180] Optionally, m3=1.

[0181] It should also be noted that the above-mentioned received preamble sequence includes the preamble sequence received by multiple network-side devices. For example, in a multi-TRP scenario, the received preamble sequence includes the preamble sequence received by multiple TRPs.

[0182] Among them, in a multi-TRP scenario, some TRPs can be sent and received, but UL-only TRPs cannot be sent and can only be received; it can be seen that in a multi-TRP scenario, the leading sequence sent by the terminal on Y RO groups can be received not only by the TRP that can be sent and received, but also by the UL-only TRP. In this case, in an embodiment of the present application, the TRP that can be sent and received uses the m3th RO of each group in the group to which the RO where the received leading sequence belongs to calculate the RA-CRNTI, and then scrambles the random access response according to the calculated RA-CRNTI, and then sends it to the terminal. In this way, even if the UL-only TRP cannot send a random access response, the TRP that can be sent and received can replace the UL-only TRP to send relevant information during the uplink synchronization process. Here, the terminal can distinguish the random access response information corresponding to different TRPs sent by the transceiver TRP according to different RA-CRNTIs.

[0183] Optionally, the random access response carries at least one of the following D-1 to D-7:

[0184] Item D-1: Index of the first target RO. It can be seen that the random access response can also carry the index of the RO where the received preamble sequence is located, so that the terminal can know that the quality of the beams on these ROs is good, that is, obtain good quality coarse beam information, and realize coarse beam pairing between the terminal and the network side.

[0185] It should be noted that the index of the RO is numbered from 0 to P-1 in sequence from the start time in a group of ROs, where P is the number of ROs in the group of ROs.

[0186] Item D-2: Index of the group to which the first target RO belongs. It can be seen that the random access response can also carry the index of the group to which the RO to which the received leading sequence belongs, so that the terminal can know that the quality of the beams on the groups to which these ROs belong is good, that is, obtain coarse beam information with good quality, and realize coarse beam pairing between the terminal and the network side.

[0187] It should be noted that the index of the RO group is numbered 0...Q-1 in sequence according to the RO groups associated with the same SSB starting from the first RO in each group, where Q is the number of RO groups associated with the same SSB index.

[0188] Item D-3: Index of the leading sequence on the first target RO. It can be seen that the random access response can also carry the index of the received leading sequence, so that the terminal can know that the quality of the beam sending these leading sequences is good, that is, obtain the coarse beam information of good quality, and realize the coarse beam pairing between the terminal and the network side.

[0189] Item D-4: The first power offset value, the first power offset value includes: the deviation of the path loss between at least one device among the devices receiving the leading sequence on the first target RO and the terminal relative to the first reference value; here, the first power offset value is used for the terminal to adjust the transmit power when sending uplink to increase the probability of uplink transmission being received. Optionally, the first power offset value can be obtained by the network side device through uplink measurement. For example, in a multi-TRP scenario, the UL-only TRP cannot be sent but can only be received; then the first power offset value corresponding to the UL-only TRP can be obtained by the TRP through uplink measurement. For example, in a multi-TRP scenario, there are UL-only TRP-A, UL-only TRP-B, and UL-only TRP-C, then the first power offset value includes the deviation of the path loss between UL-only TRP-A and the terminal relative to the first reference value, the deviation of the path loss between UL-onlyTRP-B and the terminal relative to the first reference value, and the deviation of the path loss between UL-only TRP-C and the terminal relative to the first reference value.

[0190] Item D-5: the index of the timing advance group TAG corresponding to the first target RO.

[0191] Item D-6: Time advance command TAC corresponding to the first target RO.

[0192] Item D-7: TAC offset value corresponding to the first target RO.

[0193] For the above items D-5 to D-7, optionally, the ROs using the same beam correspond to the same second information, and the second information includes at least one of TAG and TAC. That is, the TAGs corresponding to the ROs using the same beam may be the same, and the TACs may also be the same.

[0194] The TAC offset value is a deviation relative to the third reference value. When Y=1, the third reference value is the TAC corresponding to the first RO in the group; when Y is greater than 1, the third reference value is the TAC corresponding to the RO in the first group.

[0195] In addition, uplink synchronization manages uplink time through TAG, one TAG corresponds to one uplink time, and after the terminal learns that the TAG and TAC corresponding to the first target RO are sent, it can adjust the uplink time according to the TAC based on the TAG it maintains. The uplink time determined here is used for uplink transmission (such as PUCCH, PUSCH, SRS).

[0196] Optionally, the first reference value is determined according to the target signal or a second target RO;

[0197] Wherein, the second target RO satisfies at least one of the following E-1 to E-3:

[0198] Item E-1: when Y=1, the second target RO includes the m4th RO in the group, where m4 is an integer greater than zero;

[0199] Item E-2: when Y is greater than 1, the second target RO includes the RO in the m5th group;

[0200] Item E-3: The spatial relationship information corresponding to the second target RO is determined according to the target signal.

[0201] The first reference value is determined according to the target signal, that is, the first reference value is determined according to the transmit power and receive power of the target signal, for example, the difference between the transmit power and the receive power of the target signal is the first reference value.

[0202] For the above E-1 item, optionally, m4=1, that is, when Y=1, the second target RO includes the first RO in the group, that is, the first reference value is determined based on the first RO in the group. Generally, when Y=1, the beam on the first RO in the group corresponds to the device that sends the target signal, so the first reference value is determined based on the first RO in the group, that is, the difference between the transmission power and the reception power of the target signal is the first reference value.

[0203] For the above-mentioned item E-2, optionally, m5=1, that is, when Y is greater than 1, the second target RO includes the RO in the first group, that is, the first reference value is determined based on the RO in the first group. Generally, when Y is greater than 1, the beam on the RO in the first group corresponds to the device that sends the target signal. Therefore, the first reference value is determined based on the RO in the first group, that is, the difference between the transmission power and the reception power of the target signal is the first reference value.

[0204] For item E-3 above, if the target signal is sent by the first network side device, the spatial relationship information corresponding to the second target RO is determined based on the target signal, that is, the direction range indicated by the spatial relationship of the second target RO, covering the direction in which the terminal points to the first network side device, that is, the transmitting beam on the second target RO points to the first network side device.

[0205] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0206] The terminal sends a physical uplink shared channel PUSCH according to the random access response;

[0207] The spatial relationship of the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH (ie, the beam on the PUSCH) is determined according to a third target RO, and the third target RO includes the kth RO among the ROs indicated in the random access response, where k is an integer greater than zero.

[0208] Optionally, k=1, that is, the terminal can determine the PUSCH according to the first RO indicated in the random access response, and thus send the PUSCH.

[0209] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0210] The terminal receives SRS resource set configuration information;

[0211] The terminal sends an SRS according to the SRS resource set configuration information;

[0212] The spatial relationship information of the SRS resources in the SRS resource set and at least one item in the SRS resource set are associated with at least one item of the following J-1 to J-3:

[0213] Item J-1: RO index of the physical random access channel PRACH (used to indicate the beam on the RO);

[0214] Item J-2: preamble sequence index of PRACH transmission (used to indicate the beam on the RO where the preamble sequence is located);

[0215] Item J-3: RACH configuration index (used to indicate the beam on the RO associated with the RACH configuration).

[0216] In an embodiment of the present application, after receiving the above-mentioned SRS resource set configuration information, the terminal performs beam training according to the SRS resource set configuration information, determines the target beam for sending the SRS, and determines the transmission power, and then sends the SRS through the target beam and the transmission power. Among them, after receiving the SRS, the network side determines the uplink beam according to the received SRS, thereby indicating the uplink beam to the terminal. Here, the network side can indicate the uplink beam in the uplink beam configuration information, that is, the method for the network side to indicate the uplink beam to the terminal can be described in the following F-1 item.

[0217] Among them, for item J-1, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the index of the RO of the PRACH, that is, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the beam on the RO of the PRACH, wherein the beam on the RO belongs to a coarse beam. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the coarse beam.

[0218] For item J-2, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the leading sequence index of PRACH transmission, that is, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the beam on the RO where the leading sequence index of PRACH transmission is located, wherein the beam on the RO belongs to a coarse beam. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the coarse beam.

[0219] For item J-3, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the RACH configuration index, that is, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the beam on the RO associated with the RACH configuration index, wherein the beam on the RO belongs to a coarse beam. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, at least one item in the SRS resource set is associated with the coarse beam.

[0220] Among them, as mentioned above, the network side can inform the terminal of the coarse beam information with good quality through the above-mentioned D-1 to D-3 items. On this basis, in order to save the time and complexity of beam training, the network side can also "associate at least one item of the spatial relationship information of the SRS resource and the SRS resource set with the RO index of the PRACH, the leading sequence index of the PRACH transmission, and the RACH configuration index" to inform the terminal of the association between the beam indicated by the SRS resource and the coarse beam. In this way, the terminal can know within which coarse beam range to make fine beam adjustments, thereby obtaining the target beam for sending SRS.

[0221] It should be noted that the "coarse beam" in this article refers to the beam information of RO.

[0222] Optionally, the SRS resource set configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0223] The purpose of the SRS resource set (e.g., beam management, fine beam management);

[0224] Spatial relationship information of SRS resources in the SRS resource set (i.e., beams corresponding to the SRS resources);

[0225] The power control parameter of the SRS resource set (used to determine the transmit power of the SRS).

[0226] Optionally, the power control parameter of the SRS resource set includes at least one of the following H-1 to H-2:

[0227] H-1 item: Path Loss Reference Signal (PL-RS) index;

[0228] Item H-2: a second power offset value, the second power offset value comprising: a path loss between at least one device among the devices receiving the leading sequence and the terminal, a deviation relative to a second reference value, the second reference value being determined based on the path loss reference signal.

[0229] For the above-mentioned H-1 item, the path loss reference signal may be SSB or CSI-RS; wherein, if the H-1 item is defaulted, the terminal may consider the SSB associated with the PRACH associated with the SRS as the path loss reference signal.

[0230] For the above item H-2, the second reference value is determined based on the path loss reference signal, that is, the second reference value is the difference between the transmit power and the receive power of the path loss reference signal. For example, in a multi-TRP scenario, there are UL-only TRP-A, UL-only TRP-B, and UL-only TRP-C. The second power offset value includes the deviation of the path loss between UL-only TRP-A and the terminal relative to the second reference value, the deviation of the path loss between UL-only TRP-B and the terminal relative to the second reference value, and the deviation of the path loss between UL-only TRP-C and the terminal relative to the second reference value.

[0231] When H-2 is defaulted, the terminal may consider that the power offset value associated with the SRS-associated PRACH RO is the second power offset value.

[0232] In addition, the second power offset value is used to determine the transmission power of the target signal. For example, the path loss of the target signal needs to be added with the second power offset value on the basis of the second reference value, so as to determine the transmission power of the target signal according to the obtained result.

[0233] Optionally, the method further comprises the following steps:

[0234] The terminal receives uplink beam (also referred to as TCI state) configuration information;

[0235] The terminal determines, according to the uplink beam configuration information, a transmit beam and a transmit power of a target object, wherein the target object includes at least one of a PUSCH, a physical uplink control channel PUCCH, and an SRS (for example, an SRS not used for beam association);

[0236] The terminal uses the transmission power and transmits the target object through the transmission beam;

[0237] The uplink beam configuration information includes at least one of the following items F-1 to F-4:

[0238] Item F-1: Quasi co-location type D information, wherein the quasi co-location type D information is used to indicate an uplink beam;

[0239] Item F-2: a second power offset value, wherein the second power offset value includes: a path loss between the terminal and at least one device among the devices receiving the leading sequence, and a deviation from a second reference value, wherein the second reference value is determined based on the path loss reference signal; here, the second power offset value can be used to determine the transmit power of at least one of PUSCH, PUCCH, and SRS. For example, the path loss of at least one of PUSCH, PUCCH, and SRS requires adding the second power offset value to the second reference value, thereby determining the transmit power of at least one of PUSCH, PUCCH, and SRS based on the result obtained.

[0240] Item F-3: Timing advance information;

[0241] Item F-4: Path loss reference signal information.

[0242] In addition, the quasi-co-location D information may be the target beam for sending SRS determined by the terminal performing beam training according to the SRS resource set configuration information in the foregoing text, or it may be the beam with better quality indicated by D-1 to D-3 in the foregoing text.

[0243] To summarize, in an embodiment of the present application, for multiple UL-only TRPs, uplink synchronization of multiple TRPs is simultaneously achieved through beam scanning of PRACH; in addition, in this process, the terminal has actually achieved coarse beam pairing with the TRP. In order to save the time and complexity of beam training, the network side can also associate the SRS used for beam management with PRACH to tell the terminal within which coarse beam range to make fine beam adjustments, obtain the target beam for sending SRS, and send SRS through the target beam, thereby reducing the complexity and delay of beam management; thereafter, after receiving the SRS, the network side can determine the uplink beam based on the received SRS, and indicate it to the terminal, so that the terminal performs uplink transmission through the uplink beam indicated by the first network side device.

[0244] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a transmission method, such as Figure 4 As shown, the transmission method may include the following steps:

[0245] Step 401: The first network side device configures the number of packets Y of transmission opportunities RO for sending preamble sequences.

[0246] Wherein, Y is an integer greater than zero, the ROs in the Y groups are associated with the same target signal, and the ROs in the same group are used to send the same preamble sequence.

[0247] It should be noted that the Y RO groups may include at least some of the ROs associated with the target signal. For example, multiple ROs may be randomly selected from the ROs associated with the target signal, and the selected multiple ROs may be divided into at least one group. Here, the Y RO groups may be divided according to the order of the ROs in the time domain. For example, each adjacent v1 ROs belongs to a group, and v1 is greater than zero. It is understandable that the division method of the Y RO groups is not limited to this.

[0248] Optionally, the value of Y can be one of 1, 2, and 4.

[0249] In addition, the target signal may be selected based on the channel quality (e.g., RSRP) of the target signal, for example, the target signal is the one with the best channel quality among multiple target signals received by the terminal, or the target signal is one of the multiple target signals received by the terminal, the channel quality of which is higher than the first threshold; it is understandable that the target signal may also be indicated by network signaling. Optionally, the target signal is one of SSB, CSI-RS, and SRS.

[0250] In addition, after the first network side configures the above Y for the terminal, the terminal determines Y RO groups associated with the same target signal, so as to send the same preamble sequence on the ROs in the same group.

[0251] From the above, it can be seen that in an embodiment of the present application, the terminal can send a preamble sequence on at least one group of ROs associated with the same target signal, and the preamble sequences sent on the ROs in the same group are the same. In this way, the same preamble sequence can be sent on multiple ROs, and at least one preamble sequence can be sent, which increases the probability of multiple TRPs receiving the preamble sequence, thereby laying the foundation for simultaneously achieving uplink synchronization of the terminal with multiple TRPs, and further improving the uplink synchronization efficiency in the multi-TRP scenario.

[0252] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0253] The first network side device receives a leading sequence;

[0254] The first network side device sends scheduling information of a random access response according to the received preamble sequence, wherein the scheduling information is scrambled using the first information;

[0255] The first network side device sends the random access response;

[0256] The first information includes a random access radio network temporary identifier RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO of each group in the group to which the first target RO belongs, the first target RO includes the RO where the received preamble sequence is located, and m3 is an integer greater than zero.

[0257] It can be seen that after sending the preamble sequence (ie Msg1), the terminal can receive the scheduling information of the random access response (ie Msg2 or RAR) sent by the first network side device, and thus receive the random access response sent by the first network side device according to the scheduling information.

[0258] It should be noted that the above-mentioned scheduling information in the embodiment of the present application is scrambled by using the first information, and the first information includes the RA-CRNTI calculated from the m3th RO in the group to which the RO where the received preamble sequence belongs belongs.

[0259] For example, when Y=1, a preamble sequence sent by the terminal is received, and there is only one group in which the preamble sequence is located. In this way, the first information includes the RA-CRNTI calculated based on the m3th RO in the group. In this case, after receiving the above scheduling information, the terminal needs to use the RA-CRNTI calculated based on the m3th RO in the group for descrambling.

[0260] or,

[0261] For example, when Y is greater than 1, in the preamble sequence sent by the terminal, the received preamble sequence is in the first group and the second group respectively, then the first information includes: the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the first group, and the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the second group. In this case, after receiving the above scheduling information, the terminal needs to use the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the first group and the RA-CRNTI calculated according to the m3th RO in the second group for descrambling.

[0262] Optionally, m3=1.

[0263] Optionally, before the first network side device sends scheduling information of a random access response according to the received preamble sequence, the method further includes:

[0264] The first network side device receives target information sent by the second network side device, wherein the target information is used to indicate the RO or RO group where the preamble sequence received by the second network side device is located.

[0265] Here, optionally, the second network side device only has a receiving capability (ie, does not have a sending capability to the terminal), and the first network side device has a sending and receiving capability.

[0266] The received preamble sequence may include a preamble sequence received by multiple network side devices, that is, it may include a preamble sequence received by a first network side device and a preamble sequence received by a second network side device. It should be noted that the network side devices can communicate with each other, so although the second network side device does not have the ability to send to the terminal, it can inform the first network side device of its reception of the preamble sequence, so that the first network side device can replace the sending of relevant information during the uplink synchronization process.

[0267] For example, in a multi-TRP scenario, some TRPs can be sent and received, but UL-only TRPs cannot be sent and can only be received; it can be seen that in a multi-TRP scenario, the leading sequence sent by the terminal on Y RO groups can be received not only by the TRP that can be sent and received, but also by the UL-only TRP. In this case, in an embodiment of the present application, the TRP that can be sent and received uses the m3th RO of each group in the group to which the RO to which the received leading sequence belongs to calculate the RA-CRNTI, and then scrambles the random access response according to the calculated RA-CRNTI, and then sends it to the terminal. In this way, even if the UL-only TRP cannot randomly access the response, the TRP that can be sent and received can replace the UL-only TRP to send relevant information during the uplink synchronization process. Here, the terminal can distinguish the random access response information corresponding to different TRPs sent by the transceiver TRP according to different RA-CRNTIs.

[0268] Optionally, the random access response carries at least one of the following D-1 to D-7:

[0269] Item D-1: the index of the first target RO;

[0270] Item D-2: the index of the group to which the first target RO belongs;

[0271] Item D-3: index of the leading sequence on the first target RO;

[0272] Item D-4: a first power offset value, the first power offset value comprising: a deviation of a path loss between at least one device among the devices receiving the preamble sequence on the first target RO and the terminal relative to a first reference value;

[0274] Item D-6: time advance command TAC corresponding to the first target RO;

[0275] Item D-7: TAC offset value corresponding to the first target RO.

[0276] Here, the relevant explanations of items D-1 to D-7 can be found in the previous text and will not be repeated here.

[0277] Optionally, the first reference value is determined according to the target signal or a second target RO;

[0278] Wherein, the second target RO satisfies at least one of the following E-1 to E-3:

[0281] Item E-3: The spatial relationship information corresponding to the second target RO is determined according to the target signal.

[0282] Here, the relevant explanations of items E-1 to E-3 can be found in the previous article and will not be repeated here.

[0283] Optionally, the ROs using the same beam correspond to the same second information, and the second information includes at least one of a TAG and a TAC. That is, the TAGs corresponding to the ROs using the same beam may be the same, and the TACs may also be the same.

[0286] The spatial relationship of the physical uplink shared channel PUSCH is determined according to a third target RO, and the third target RO includes the kth RO among the ROs indicated in the random access response, where k is an integer greater than zero.

[0287] Optionally, k=1, that is, the terminal can determine the PUSCH according to the first RO indicated in the random access response, and thus send the PUSCH.

[0288] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0289] The first network side device sends SRS resource set configuration information;

Among them, after receiving the SRS, the network side determines the uplink beam according to the received SRS, thereby indicating the uplink beam to the terminal. Here, the network side can indicate the uplink beam in the uplink beam configuration information, that is, the method for the network side to indicate the uplink beam to the terminal can be described in the following F-1 item.
