Description

Continuous listen-before-speak LBT failure processing method and device Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a method and device for handling failure of continuous listen-before-speak (LBT) communication. Background Art

[0002] To support direct communication between terminals, direct communication (also called sidelink, SL) was introduced. The interface between terminals is PC-5. Depending on the correspondence between the sending and receiving terminals, three transmission modes are supported on the sidelink: unicast, multicast, and broadcast.

[0003] In the related technology, the use of unlicensed spectrum is supported for Sidelink communication. Sidelink communication can use the spectrum of unlicensed frequency bands for communication. The spectrum of unlicensed frequency bands is open and can improve performance and speed through effective utilization. This scenario can be called Sindlink-U (Sidelink-Unlicensed, unlicensed spectrum of the sidelink) scenario. The terminal device also needs to perform LBT (listen before talk) when sending Sidelink data on the unlicensed spectrum. The continuous LBT mechanism is also applicable to Sidelink communication on the unlicensed spectrum.

[0004] However, there is currently a lack of effective means to deal with continuous LBT failure in SL.

Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).

[0190] It should be noted that to support direct communication between terminals, a direct link (also called sidelink, SL) communication mode is introduced, and the interface between terminals is PC-5. Based on the correspondence between the transmitting and receiving terminals, three transmission modes are supported on the sidelink: unicast, multicast, and broadcast. The transmitting terminal sends sidelink control information (SCI) on the physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) and second-stage SCI on the physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH). These SCIs carry the resource location of the transmitted data as well as the source and destination identifiers. For packets with HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest) feedback enabled, the receiving terminal provides HARQ-ACK (Hybrid Automatic Retransmission Request Acknowledgement) feedback on the physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH).

[0191] In some embodiments, Sidelink communication has two SL transmission resource allocation methods, including a first allocation method (also called mode 1) and a second allocation method (also called mode 2). The first allocation method is a method in which the network device dynamically schedules, and the second allocation method is a method in which the terminal device autonomously selects transmission resources. Dynamic scheduling means that the network device dynamically allocates transmission resources on the Sidelink to the terminal device based on the cached data reported by the terminal device, while autonomous selection means that the terminal device randomly selects transmission resources from the resource pool configured or pre-configured by the network device. The network device can configure multiple resource pools for the terminal device on one BWP. The specific allocation method to be used is configured by the network device through RRC signaling.

[0192] Version R18 supports Sidelink communication using unlicensed spectrum. Sidelink communication can use unlicensed frequency band spectrum for communication. The unlicensed frequency band spectrum is open and can improve performance and speed through effective utilization. This scenario can be called Sindlink-U (Sidelink-Unlicensed, unlicensed spectrum of the sidelink) scenario. The terminal device also needs to perform LBT (listen before talk) when sending Sidelink data on the unlicensed spectrum. In some embodiments, the terminal device must first sense the communication channel to determine whether the channel is busy. If the channel is detected to be busy, LBT fails and it is necessary to wait for a period of time before performing LBT again.

[0193] In some embodiments, the continuous LBT mechanism is also applicable to Sidelink communications on unlicensed spectrum. The terminal device counts the number of LBT failures on each BWP (Bandwidth Part). The network device configures the maximum number of SL continuous LBT failures (Lbt-FailureInstanceMaxCount) and the SL continuous LBT failure detection timer (Lbt-FailureDetectionTimer) for the terminal device at the cell granularity (per serving cell) through RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling (Lbt-FailureRecoveryConfig) to count SL continuous LBT failures. The terminal device maintains a variable (such as LBT_counter) for each cell, and the initial value of the variable is 0. For each activated cell configured with Lbt-FailureRecoveryConfig, when the terminal device receives the LBT failure indication submitted by the physical layer, it starts or restarts the Lbt-FailureDetectionTimer, and the variable is increased by 1. When the variable is greater than or equal to the Lbt-FailureInstanceMaxCount, the activated BWP on the cell triggers SL continuous LBT failure.

[0194] In some embodiments, the granularity of SL continuous LBT failure is the granularity of resource block set (RB set), that is, the terminal device counts whether the LBT failure indication on an RB set reaches a preset number within a period of time, and determines whether SL continuous LBT failure is triggered on this RB set.

[0195] However, there is currently a lack of effective means to deal with continuous LBT failure in SL.

[0196] To this end, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and device for handling continuous listen-before-speak LBT failure, which can solve the problem of how to handle the situation when a terminal device that is in an RRC connection state and running in a second allocation mode of SL sending resource allocation (such as a mode of allocating SL sending resources in which the terminal device autonomously selects sending resources) detects that SL continuous LBT failure is triggered on an RB set.

[0197] FIG2A is an interactive diagram illustrating a method for handling a continuous listen-before-speak (LBT) failure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2A , the method for handling a continuous listen-before-speak (LBT) failure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100. The method includes:

[0198] Step S2101 , the network device 101 sends a first parameter to the terminal device 102 .

[0199] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 receives a first parameter, wherein the first parameter may have other names, which are not specifically limited in this disclosure.

[0200] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first parameter may be used to instruct the terminal device 102 to trigger resource reselection when a failure to trigger SL continuous LBT on the RB set is detected.

[0201] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device 102 is in an RRC connected state, and the SL sending resource allocation method of the terminal device 102 is a method in which the terminal device independently selects the sending resource.

[0202] Of course, it should be understood that the terminal device may also be in other states, such as RRC idle state, RRC inactive state, etc.

[0203] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned first parameter can be indicated by enable / value 1. If the network device 101 is configured with the above-mentioned first parameter, it indicates that the terminal device 102 in the RRC connection state and running in the above-mentioned second allocation mode (that is, the allocation mode of SL sending resources is a mode in which the terminal device autonomously selects sending resources) supports resource reselection when it detects that the SL continuous LBT fails to be triggered on the RB set. If the network device 101 is not configured with the above-mentioned first parameter, it indicates that the terminal device 102 in the RRC connection state and running in the above-mentioned second allocation mode (that is, the allocation mode of SL sending resources is a mode in which the terminal device autonomously selects sending resources) does not support resource reselection when it detects that the SL continuous LBT fails to be triggered on the RB set.

[0204] In some embodiments, the first parameter is a configuration parameter of terminal device granularity.

[0205] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 may obtain the parameter through configuration or pre-configuration. Optionally, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state may obtain the first parameter through dedicated signaling. In one possible implementation, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state may obtain the first parameter from the network device through RRC dedicated signaling.

[0206] In some embodiments, when the terminal device 102 is in the RRC IDLE / INACTIVE state, the terminal device 102 can obtain the above-mentioned first parameter from the network device through the SIB (System Information Block).

[0207] In some embodiments, when the terminal device 102 is in an OOC (Out Of Coverage) state, the terminal device 102 may obtain the first parameter through pre-configuration.

[0208] Step S2102: The terminal device 102 determines that the first parameter configured by the network device 101 is received, detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails, and triggers resource reselection.

[0209] In some embodiments, when the terminal device 102 receives the first parameter sent by the network device 101, it determines that the network device 101 is configured with the first parameter. One possible implementation of the terminal device 102 determining that the network device 101 is not configured with the first parameter is as follows: if the terminal device 102 does not receive the first parameter from the network device 101, that is, if the terminal device 102 does not receive the first parameter from the network device 101, the terminal device 102 may determine that the network device 101 is not configured with the first parameter.

[0210] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 determines that the network device 101 configures the first parameter. If it is detected that the SL continuous LBT failure is triggered on the RB set, the terminal device 102 cannot select resources on the RB set that triggered the SL continuous LBT failure.

[0211] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 determines that the network device 101 configures the first parameter. If it is detected that the SL continuous LBT failure is triggered on the RB set, the terminal device 102 can determine the first resource pool where the RB set that triggers the SL continuous LBT failure is located.

[0212] In some embodiments, when the terminal device determines that there is no RB set that does not trigger SL continuous LBT failure in the first resource pool, a second resource pool can be determined; and resource reselection can be performed in the second resource pool.

[0213] In some embodiments, when the terminal device determines that there are no specific number of RB sets that have not triggered SL continuous LBT failures on the first resource pool, a second resource pool can be determined to perform resource reselection on the second resource pool. The second resource pool is different from the first resource pool. The specific number can be at least one, that is, it can be one or more, and the specific value of the specific number can be determined by the terminal device itself, or can be pre-configured by the network device. That is, when the terminal device determines that the number of RB sets that have not triggered SL continuous LBT failures on the first resource pool does not reach a specific threshold, it can be considered that the first resource pool does not have sufficient resources, and thus, it is necessary to determine a second resource pool to perform resource reselection on the second resource pool. In some embodiments, the terminal determines the second resource pool for resource reselection only when there are no RB sets that have not triggered SL continuous LBT failures on the first resource pool. In other embodiments, as long as the terminal determines that the number of RB sets that have not triggered SL continuous LBT failures on the first resource pool does not reach a predetermined number, the second resource pool is determined for resource reselection.

[0214] In one possible implementation, when all RB sets on the selected resource pool trigger SL continuous LBT failure, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 reselects the resource pool. Even if not all RB sets trigger SL continuous LBT failure, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 may reselect the resource pool according to the implementation, for example, when the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 detects that there are insufficient resources in the currently selected resource pool.

[0215] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 may determine the second resource pool from one or more resource pools, wherein the one or more resource pools respectively include at least one RB set that does not trigger SL continuous LBT failure.

[0216] Optionally, when the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and operating in mode 2 reselects a resource pool, the terminal device 102 may reselect a resource pool from one or more resource pools having at least one RB set in which no SL continuous LBT failure is detected, according to the implementation.

[0217] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 may determine one or more of the second resource pools from the multiple resource pools; wherein the multiple resource pools respectively include at least one RB set that does not trigger SL continuous LBT failure.

[0218] Optionally, if there are multiple resource pools each having at least one RB set without detecting SL continuous LBT failure, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 can select one or more second resource pools from the multiple resource pools according to the implementation.

[0219] Step S2103 , the terminal device 102 sends first information to the network device 101 .

[0220] In some embodiments, the network device 101 receives the first information.

[0221] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first information includes RB set information. In some embodiments, the RB set information may include the identifier of the RB set.

[0222] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first information is used to indicate the RB set that triggers the SL continuous LBT failure.

[0223] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 sends the first information via a MACCE (Media Access Control Element). Optionally, the terminal device 102 may report the first information via a MACCE to inform the network device which RB set or sets triggered the SL continuous LBT failure.

[0224] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 sends a MACCE including the first information. Alternatively, the network device 101 receives a MACCE including the first information. The first information may be, for example, but not limited to, an indication of SL continuous LBT failure.

[0225] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set, and the terminal device 102 sends a first message to the network device 101 to report to the network device 101 the information of the RB set on which the continuous SL LBT failure has been detected, and the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. Optionally, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set, and the terminal device 102 reports to the network device 101 the information of the RB set on which the continuous SL LBT failure has been detected through the first message, and the MAC layer of the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection, for example, the MAC layer submits parameters to the physical layer. The physical layer provides candidate resources based on the parameters. The MAC layer obtains the candidate resources provided by the physical layer and performs resource reselection among the candidate resources.

[0226] In step S2104 , the MAC (Media Access Control) layer of the terminal device 102 delivers the second information to the physical layer (PHY) of the terminal device 102 .

[0227] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second information includes information of an RB set. The second information is used for resource exclusion at the physical layer.

[0228] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set, and the MAC layer of the terminal device 102 delivers second information to the physical layer of the terminal device 102, while the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. Optionally, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set, and the MAC layer delivers the second information and parameters for resource selection / reselection to the physical layer. The physical layer provides candidate resources based on the parameters and the second information, and the candidate resources provided by the physical layer exclude the RB set that triggered the continuous SL LBT failure. The MAC layer obtains the candidate resources provided by the physical layer and performs resource reselection among the candidate resources.

[0229] Step S2105: The network device 101 recovers the SL continuous LBT failure based on the first information.

[0230] In some embodiments, the network device 101 receives the above-mentioned first information sent by the terminal device 102 and can recover the SL continuous LBT failure. For example, the network device 101 recovers the SL continuous LBT failure of the RB set associated with the first information based on the above-mentioned first information. For example, the network device 101 can send resource reconfiguration signaling to the terminal device 102 based on the above-mentioned first information.

[0231] Step S2106: The terminal device 102 determines that the first parameter configured by the network device 101 is not received, detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails, and does not trigger resource reselection.

[0232] In some embodiments, terminal device 102 determines that network device 101 is not configured with the first parameter, and terminal device 102 detects a failure to trigger SL continuous LBT on an RB set. The MAC layer of terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection. Optionally, the MAC layer does not notify the physical layer of the information about the RB set in which the SL continuous LBT failure was detected. Terminal device 102 reports the information about the RB set in which the SL continuous LBT failure was detected to network device 101 via the first information, and subsequently relies on network device 101 to recover from the SL continuous LBT failure.

[0233] In some embodiments, when terminal device 102 determines that network device 101 is not configured with the first parameter and detects a failure to trigger continuous SL LBT on an RB set, the MAC layer of terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection. However, the MAC layer still notifies the physical layer of information about the RB set in which the continuous SL LBT failure was detected. This RB set information can be used in subsequent resource reselection to allow the physical layer to exclude resources from the RB set in which the continuous SL LBT failure was detected.

[0241] In some embodiments, steps S2103, S2104, S2105, and S2106 are optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or replaced in different embodiments.

[0242] In some embodiments, steps S2101, S2102, S2104, and S2105 are optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or replaced in different embodiments.

[0244] FIG2B is an interactive diagram illustrating a method for handling a continuous listen-before-speak (LBT) failure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG2B , the method for handling a continuous listen-before-speak (LBT) failure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system 100. The method includes:

[0245] Step S2201: The network device 101 sends a first parameter to the terminal device 102.

[0246] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 receives the first parameter.

[0247] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first parameter may be used to indicate whether the terminal device triggers resource reselection when detecting a failure to trigger SL continuous LBT on an RB set. The first parameter may have other names, which are not specifically limited in the present disclosure.

[0248] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal device 102 is in an RRC connected state, and the SL sending resource allocation method of the terminal device 102 is a method in which the terminal device independently selects the sending resource.

[0249] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned first parameter can be indicated by a first value or a second value. For example, the first parameter is a first value, which is used to indicate that the terminal device triggers resource reselection when it detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails; when the first parameter is a second value, it is used to indicate that the terminal device does not trigger resource reselection when it detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails.

[0250] In one implementation, the first value may be enable, and the second value may be disable. For example, when the first parameter is enable, it is used to instruct the terminal device to trigger resource reselection upon detecting a failure in triggering SL continuous LBT on the RB set; when the first parameter is disable, it is used to instruct the terminal device not to trigger resource reselection upon detecting a failure in triggering SL continuous LBT on the RB set.

[0251] In another implementation, the first value may be 1, and the second value may be 0. For example, when the first parameter is 1, it is used to instruct the terminal device to trigger resource reselection upon detecting a failure in triggering SL continuous LBT on the RB set; when the first parameter is 0, it is used to instruct the terminal device not to trigger resource reselection upon detecting a failure in triggering SL continuous LBT on the RB set.

[0252] In another implementation, the first value may be 0 and the second value may be 1. For example, when the first parameter is 0, it is used to instruct the terminal device to trigger resource reselection upon detecting a failure to trigger SL continuous LBT on the RB set; when the first parameter is 1, it is used to instruct the terminal device not to trigger resource reselection upon detecting a failure to trigger SL continuous LBT on the RB set. Optionally, the first value and the second value may be other values, which are not limited in this disclosure.

[0253] In some embodiments, the first parameter is a configuration parameter of terminal device granularity.

[0254] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 may obtain the parameter through configuration or pre-configuration. Optionally, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state may obtain the first parameter through dedicated signaling. In one possible implementation, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state may obtain the first parameter from the network device through RRC dedicated signaling.

[0255] In some embodiments, when the terminal device 102 is in the RRC IDLE / INACTIVE state, the terminal device 102 can obtain the above-mentioned first parameter from the network device through the SIB.

[0256] In some embodiments, when the terminal device 102 is in the OOC state, the terminal device 102 can obtain the above-mentioned first parameter through pre-configuration.

[0257] Step S2202: the first parameter is the first value, and the terminal device 102 detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails, triggering resource reselection.

[0258] In some embodiments, terminal device 102 can detect whether a SL continuous LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set. If the network device sends a first parameter with a first value, and terminal device 102 detects that a SL continuous LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set, terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. Optionally, terminal device 102 cannot select resources on an RB set that has triggered a SL continuous LBT failure.

[0259] In some embodiments, the first parameter sent by the network device 101 is a first value. If the terminal device 102 detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails, the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection.

[0260] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned first parameter sent by the network device 101 is a first value. If the terminal device 102 detects that the SL continuous LBT failure is triggered on the RB set, the terminal device 102 can determine the first resource pool where the RB set that triggered the SL continuous LBT failure is located; if there is no RB set that has not triggered the SL continuous LBT failure on the first resource pool, determine the second resource pool; and perform resource reselection on the second resource pool.

[0261] In one possible implementation, when all RB sets on the selected resource pool trigger SL continuous LBT failure, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 reselects the resource pool. Even if not all RB sets trigger SL continuous LBT failure, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 may reselect the resource pool according to the implementation, for example, when the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 detects that there are insufficient resources in the currently selected resource pool.

[0262] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 may determine the second resource pool from one or more resource pools, wherein the one or more resource pools respectively include at least one RB set that does not trigger SL continuous LBT failure.

[0263] Optionally, when the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and operating in mode 2 reselects a resource pool, the terminal device 102 may reselect a resource pool from one or more resource pools having at least one RB set in which no SL continuous LBT failure is detected, according to the implementation.

[0264] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 may determine one or more of the second resource pools from the multiple resource pools; wherein the multiple resource pools respectively include at least one RB set that does not trigger SL continuous LBT failure.

[0265] Optionally, if there are multiple resource pools each having at least one RB set without detecting SL continuous LBT failure, the terminal device 102 in the RRC connected state and running in mode 2 can select one or more second resource pools from the multiple resource pools according to the implementation.

[0266] Step S2203, the first parameter is the second value, the terminal device 102 detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering on the RB set fails, and does not trigger resource reselection.

[0267] In some embodiments, terminal device 102 can detect whether a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on the RB set. If the first parameter sent by the network device is the second value, and terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on the RB set, terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection. Optionally, if the first parameter sent by the network device is the second value, and terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has been triggered on the RB set, the MAC layer of terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection.

[0268] In some embodiments, the implementation method of the terminal device 102 detecting whether SL continuous LBT failure is triggered on the RB set can be referred to the relevant description of the above step S2203, which will not be repeated here.

[0269] Step S2204 , the terminal device 102 sends first information to the network device 101 .

[0270] In some embodiments, the network device 101 receives the first information.

[0271] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first information includes information of an RB set, and the first information is used to indicate the RB set that triggers the SL continuous LBT failure. In some embodiments, the RB set information may include the identifier of the RB set.

[0272] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 sends the above-mentioned first information through MACCE (Media Access Control Element).

[0273] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 sends a MACCE including the first information. Alternatively, the network device 101 receives a MACCE including the first information. The first information may be, for example, but not limited to, an indication of SL continuous LBT failure.

[0274] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure is triggered on an RB set, and the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. The terminal device 102 may also send a first message to the network device 101 to report to the network device 101 the information of the RB set on which the continuous SL LBT failure is detected, and at the same time, the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. Optionally, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure is triggered on an RB set, and the terminal device 102 reports to the network device 101 the information of the RB set on which the continuous SL LBT failure is detected through the first message, and at the same time, the MAC layer of the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection, for example, the MAC layer submits parameters to the physical layer. The physical layer provides candidate resources based on the parameters. The MAC layer obtains the candidate resources provided by the physical layer and performs resource reselection among the candidate resources.

[0275] In some embodiments, when terminal device 102 detects that a SL continuous LBT failure has been triggered on an RB set, terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection. Terminal device 102 may send a first message to network device 101 to report to network device 101 the information about the RB set in which the SL continuous LBT failure has been detected, so that network device 101 can recover from the SL continuous LBT failure based on the first message.

[0276] Step S2205 , the MAC layer of the terminal device 102 delivers the second information to the physical layer of the terminal device 102 .

[0277] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second information includes RB set information, and the second information is used for resource exclusion at the physical layer.

[0278] In some embodiments, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous LBT failure of SL is triggered on an RB set, and the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. The MAC layer of the terminal device 102 may also deliver second information to the physical layer of the terminal device 102, and the terminal device 102 triggers resource reselection. Optionally, the terminal device 102 detects that a continuous LBT failure of SL is triggered on an RB set, and the MAC layer triggers resource reselection. The MAC layer delivers the above-mentioned second information and parameters for resource selection / reselection to the physical layer. The physical layer provides candidate resources based on the parameters and the second information, and the candidate resources provided by the physical layer exclude the RB set that triggered the continuous LBT failure of SL. The MAC layer obtains the candidate resources provided by the physical layer, and performs resource reselection among the candidate resources.

[0279] In some embodiments, when the terminal device 102 detects that the SL continuous LBT triggering failure on the RB set, the terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection. The terminal device 102 does not notify the physical layer of the information of the RB set in which the SL continuous LBT failure is detected.

[0280] In some embodiments, when terminal device 102 detects that a continuous SL LBT failure has occurred on an RB set, terminal device 102 does not trigger resource reselection. However, the MAC layer of terminal device 102 still notifies the physical layer of the RB set in which the continuous SL LBT failure has been detected. This RB set information can be used during subsequent resource reselection to allow the physical layer to exclude resources associated with the RB set in which the continuous SL LBT failure has been detected.

[0281] Step S2206: The network device 101 recovers the SL continuous LBT failure based on the first information.

[0282] In some embodiments, the network device 101 receives the above-mentioned first information sent by the terminal device 102 and can recover the SL continuous LBT failure. For example, the network device 101 recovers the SL continuous LBT failure of the RB set associated with the first information based on the above-mentioned first information. For example, the network device 101 can send resource reconfiguration signaling to the terminal device 102 based on the above-mentioned first information.

[0283] The method involved in the embodiment of the present disclosure may include at least one of steps S2201 to S2206. For example, step S2201 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2202 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2203 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2201+step S2202 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2201+step S2202+step S2204+step S2206 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2201+step S2202+step S2204+step S2205+step S2206 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2201+step S2203 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2201+step S2203+step S2204+step S2206 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, and step S2201+step S2203+step S2205 can be implemented as an independent embodiment, but is not limited to this.
