[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the network side device can provide services for the cell, and the terminal device communicates with the network side device through the transmission resources used by the cell (for example, frequency domain resources, or spectrum resources). The cell can be a cell corresponding to the network side device (for example, a base station). The cell can belong to a macro base station or a base station corresponding to a small cell. The small cells here may include: metro cell, micro cell, pico cell, femto cell, etc. These small cells have the characteristics of small coverage and low transmission power, and are suitable for providing high-speed data transmission services.

[0054] The 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication system, also known as the New Radio (NR) system, can include a terrestrial network (TN) and / or a non-terrestrial network (NTN). NTNs generally use satellite communications to provide communication services to terrestrial users. NTN systems currently include NR-NTN and IoT (Internet of Things)-NTN systems.

[0055] For example, Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a communication system provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in part (A) of Figure 1, communication system 100 may include network-side device 110, which may be a device that communicates with terminal device 120 (also referred to as a communication terminal or terminal). Network-side device 110 may provide communication coverage for a specific geographic area and may communicate with terminal device 120 located within the coverage area.

[0056] Part (A) in Figure 1 exemplarily shows a network-side device 110 and two terminal devices 120. In some embodiments of the present application, the communication system 100 may also include multiple network-side devices, and the coverage range of each network-side device may include other numbers of terminal devices, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0057] For example, the architecture of the communication system shown in part (B) of FIG1 includes a terminal device 130 and a satellite 140, and wireless communication can be performed between the terminal device 130 and the satellite 140. The network formed between the terminal device 130 and the satellite 140 can also be referred to as an NTN. In the architecture of the communication system shown in part (B) of FIG1, the satellite 140 can have the function of a base station, and the terminal device 130 and the satellite 140 can communicate directly. In this system architecture, the satellite 140 can be referred to as a network side device. In some embodiments of the present application, the communication system may further include multiple satellites 140, and each satellite 140 may include other numbers of terminal devices within its coverage area, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0058] For example, the architecture of the communication system shown in part (C) of FIG1 includes a terminal device 150, a satellite 160, and a base station 170. Wireless communication can be performed between the terminal device 150 and the satellite 160, and communication can be performed between the satellite 160 and the base station 170. The network formed between the terminal device 150, the satellite 160, and the base station 170 can be referred to as an NTN. In the architecture of the communication system shown in part (C) of FIG1, the satellite 160 may not have the function of a base station, and the communication between the terminal device 150 and the base station 170 needs to be transferred through the satellite 160. In this system architecture, the base station 170 can be referred to as a network side device. In some embodiments of the present application, the communication system may include multiple base stations 170, and the coverage range of each base station 170 (i.e., the signal coverage range of the corresponding satellite 160) may include other number of terminal devices, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0059] It should be noted that parts (A)-(C) in Figure 1 are only examples of the system to which this application is applicable. Of course, the method shown in the embodiment of this application can also be applied to other systems, and this embodiment of this application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0060] Optionally, the wireless communication system shown in parts (A)-(C) of Figure 1 may also include other network entities such as a mobility management entity (MME) and an access and mobility management function (AMF), but this is not limited to the embodiments of the present application.

[0061] It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, a device having a communication function in a network / system may be referred to as a communication device. Taking the communication system 100 shown in part (A) of Figure 1 as an example, the communication device may include a network-side device 110 and a terminal device 120 having a communication function. The network-side device 110 and the terminal device 120 may be the specific devices described above and will not be described in detail here. The communication device may also include other devices in the communication system 100, such as other network entities such as a network controller and a mobility management entity, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0062] It should be understood that the terms "system" and "network" are often used interchangeably herein. The term "and / or" is simply a description of an association between related objects, indicating that three possible relationships exist. For example, "A and / or B" can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, or B exists alone. Furthermore, the character " / " generally indicates that the related objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0063] It should be understood that the "indication" mentioned in the embodiments of this application can be a direct indication, an indirect indication, or an indication of an association. For example, "A indicates B" can mean that A directly indicates B, for example, B can be obtained through A; it can also mean that A indirectly indicates B, for example, A indicates C, and B can be obtained through C; it can also mean that there is an association between A and B.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, "configuration" may include the network side device sending instruction information to the terminal device.

[0065] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the term "corresponding" may indicate a direct or indirect correspondence between the two, or an association relationship between the two, or a relationship between indication and being indicated, configuration and being configured, etc.

[0066] In the embodiments of the present application, "pre-definition" or "pre-configuration" may be implemented by pre-storing corresponding codes, tables, or other methods that can be used to indicate relevant information in a device (e.g., including a terminal device and a network-side device). The present application does not limit the specific implementation method. For example, pre-definition may refer to information defined in a protocol.

[0067] In the embodiments of the present application, the “protocol” may refer to a standard protocol in the communications field, for example, it may include an LTE protocol, an NR protocol, and related protocols used in future communication systems, and the present application does not limit this.

[0068] Network energy conservation has significant implications for environmental sustainability, reducing environmental impact (e.g., greenhouse gas emissions), and lowering operational costs. As 5G becomes increasingly widespread across various industries and geographic regions, it will need to support very high data rates to handle more advanced services and applications. Consequently, network deployments will become denser, utilizing more antennas, greater bandwidth, and more frequency bands. Considering the environmental impact of 5G, new, controlled solutions are needed to enhance network energy conservation.

[0069] Energy consumption has become a key component of operators' operational expenditure (OPEX). Research shows that energy costs for mobile networks account for approximately 23% of total OPEX. Most energy consumption comes from the radio access network, more specifically, the active antenna unit (AAU), with data centers and fiber optic transmission contributing to smaller shares. The power consumption of a single radio access can be divided into two parts: the dynamic portion includes only the power consumption when data is being sent or received; the static portion includes the power consumption required to maintain the necessary operations of the radio access equipment at all times, including when no data is being sent or received.

[0070] In the solution involved in the present application, a network energy-saving technology is to configure a DRX mode for a terminal device. Please refer to Figure 2, which shows a transmission example diagram involved in an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2, when the terminal device is in the DRX operating mode, under normal circumstances, the terminal device only needs to monitor the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) of a specific RNTI scrambled code during the DRX on duration (DRX on duration), and when the PDCCH is monitored, the corresponding downlink data reception and / or uplink data transmission is performed according to the PDCCH scheduling. If there is no service transmission demand, the PDCCH of the specific RNTI scrambled code is not monitored during the DRX off duration (DRX off duration). Accordingly, if there is no service transmission demand, the network side device does not need to schedule the PDCCH of the specific RNTI scrambled code for the terminal device during the DRX off duration. Therefore, the energy consumption of the terminal device and the network side device can be saved to a certain extent.

[0071] In the above solution, the network side device can independently configure the DRX mode for each terminal device, so the DRX configuration parameters of each terminal device (such as the start time of DRX on and / or the duration of DRX on) can be different. In this case, since a cell usually includes multiple terminal devices, when some terminal devices are in the duration of DRX off, other terminal devices may be in the duration of DRX on. Please refer to Figure 3, which shows another transmission example diagram involved in an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 3, it is assumed that the network includes two terminal devices, namely UE1 and UE2, and the DRX configurations of the two terminal devices are different. Since the network side device needs to be prepared to schedule for different terminal devices, the network side device may enter a specific energy-saving mode (such as deep sleep mode) only when all terminal devices in the network are in the duration of DRX off and there is no business transmission (that is, UE1 and UE2 in Figure 3 are both in the duration of DRX off and there is no business transmission). Therefore, the time that the network side device can be in a specific energy-saving mode is not very long. Therefore, although the terminal device can benefit from the DRX mode configuration to achieve energy-saving effects, the energy-saving effect of the network side device in this case is not obvious. Therefore, how to achieve better energy-saving effects for network-side devices and communication networks is a problem to be solved in the field of mobile communications.

[0072] The solution shown in the subsequent embodiments of this application provides a solution for configuring wireless communication of terminal devices based on energy saving considerations of network-side devices and communication networks.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 4, which shows a flowchart of a wireless communication method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be performed by a terminal device, wherein the terminal device can be the terminal device 120, the terminal device 130, or the terminal device 150 in the network architecture shown in Figure 1. The method can include the following steps:

[0074] Step 401: Receive first configuration information sent by a network-side device.

[0075] The network side device may be an access network device in a mobile communication network. For example, the network side device may be the network side device 110, satellite 140, satellite 160 or base station 170 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 .

[0076] In an embodiment of the present application, a network-side device may send first configuration information to a terminal device. The first configuration information may be sent via a system message, or via a dedicated channel / signal of the terminal device. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the manner in which the first configuration information is sent.

[0077] Step 402: Acquire a first duration according to first configuration information; the first duration is not used for first channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first duration is not used for transmission of the first channel or signal, which may mean that the network side device does not transmit the first channel or signal within the first duration.

[0079] In one possible implementation, the network side device indicates, through the first configuration information, to each terminal device corresponding to the network side device a first duration of not transmitting the first channel or signal. That is, during the first duration, the network side device will not transmit (including receiving and / or sending) the first channel or signal, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the network side device.

[0080] Optionally, the solution executed by the above terminal device may be specifically described in the subsequent embodiment shown in FIG7 .

[0081] To sum up, in the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can determine the first duration based on the first configuration information sent by the network side device, and during the first duration, the first channel or signal is not transmitted between the terminal device and the network side device, so that the network side device does not send or receive the first channel or signal during the first duration, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the energy consumption of the network side device and achieving the effect of network energy saving.

[0082] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, since the terminal device does not transmit the first channel or signal during the first duration, the above solution can also periodically reduce the energy consumption of the terminal device.

[0083] In the NR system and its evolved system, through the solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, the network side device can configure the DRX cycle for the terminal device in a public manner, and agree with the terminal device not to receive the first downlink channel or signal within the first duration of the public DRX cycle. Accordingly, the network side device does not send the first downlink channel or signal within the first duration, thereby achieving the purpose of network energy saving.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 5, which shows a flowchart of a wireless communication method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be performed by a network-side device, wherein the network-side device can be the network-side device 110, satellite 140, satellite 160, or base station 170 in the network architecture shown in Figure 1. The method can include the following steps:

[0085] Step 501: Send first configuration information to the terminal device; the first configuration information is used by the terminal device to obtain a first duration; the first duration is not used for transmission of a first channel or signal of a first cell.

[0086] Optionally, the solution executed by the above-mentioned network-side device may be specifically described in the subsequent embodiment shown in FIG7 .

[0087] To sum up, in the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device can send first configuration information to the terminal device, so that the terminal device determines the first duration based on the first configuration information sent by the network side device, and during the first duration, the first channel or signal is not transmitted between the terminal device and the network side device, so that the network side device does not send or receive the first channel or signal during the first duration, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the energy consumption of the network side device and achieving the effect of network energy saving.

[0088] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, since the terminal device does not transmit the first channel or signal during the first duration, the above solution can also periodically reduce the energy consumption of the terminal device.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 6, which shows a schematic diagram of a wireless communication process provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 6, a terminal device 601 and a network side device 602 communicate with each other via wireless signals.

[0090] Taking network device 602 as an example, in Figure 6, network device 602 first sends first configuration information to terminal device 601 (step S1), which can be used to indicate a first duration corresponding to a first cell. Terminal device 601 determines the first duration corresponding to the first cell based on the first configuration information. Subsequently, no first channel or signal is transmitted between terminal device 601 and network device 602 during the first duration.

[0091] Based on the solutions involved in the embodiments shown in Figures 4 and 5 above, please refer to Figure 7, which shows a flowchart of a wireless communication method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be interactively executed by a terminal device and a network-side device; wherein the terminal device and the network-side device can be the terminal device 120 and the network-side device 110 in the network architecture shown in Figure 1; or, the terminal device and the network-side device can be the terminal device 130 and the satellite 140 / satellite 160 in the network architecture shown in Figure 1; or, the terminal device and the network-side device can be the terminal device 150 and the base station 170 in the network architecture shown in Figure 1. As shown in Figure 7, the method can include at least part of the following methods:

[0092] Step 701: The network side device sends first configuration information to the terminal device; correspondingly, the terminal device receives the first configuration information sent by the network side device.

[0093] Optionally, the first configuration information carries at least one of the following information: system message, cell-common RRC (Radio Resource Control) message, group-common RRC message, terminal device-specific RRC message, cell-common Media Access Control-Control Element (MAC CE) message, group-common MAC CE message, terminal device-specific MAC CE message, cell-common downlink control information (DCI) message, group-common DCI message, and terminal device-specific DCI message.

[0094] For example, the network side device can send the first configuration information to the terminal device through a system message or RRC signaling.

[0095] Alternatively, the network side device may also send the first configuration information to the terminal device during the random access process, for example, the network side device sends the first configuration information to the terminal device through a random access response message in the random access process (for example, message 2 in the four-step random access process or message B in the two-step random access process) or through a contention resolution message in the random access process (for example, message 4).

[0096] Step 702: The terminal device obtains a first duration according to the first configuration information; wherein the first duration is not used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0097] In a possible implementation, step 702 may also be replaced by: the terminal device obtains a first duration according to the first configuration information; wherein the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0098] Optionally, the terminal device obtains the first duration according to the first configuration information, including: the terminal device obtains at least one of the following information according to the first configuration information: the length of the first duration, the starting subframe of the first duration, the starting time slot of the first duration, the starting symbol of the first duration, the ending position of the first duration, and fourth configuration information associated with the first duration.

[0099] Optionally, the first cell includes one of the following situations: one cell, multiple cells, one cell group, multiple cell groups, all activated cells of the terminal device, some cells in the activated cells of the terminal device, all configured cells of the terminal device, and some cells in the configured cells of the terminal device.

[0100] Optionally, the first cell is a cell associated with an energy-saving mode, or the first cell is a cell configured as an energy-saving mode.

[0101] Optionally, the first cell does not include the primary cell of the terminal device, and / or the first cell does not include the primary cell in the secondary cell group of the terminal device.

[0102] In some possible implementations, the length of the first duration is fixed.

[0103] In some possible implementations, the length of the first duration is variable according to scheduling conditions.

[0104] In some possible implementations, the first duration is periodically configured.

[0105] In some possible implementations, the first duration is configured aperiodically.

[0106] In one possible implementation, the terminal device obtains the first duration based on the first configuration information, including: the terminal device determines the starting position of the first duration based on a first time domain resource, where the first time domain resource is a time domain resource used to transmit response information corresponding to the first configuration information. Optionally, when the first time domain resource includes multiple time domain resources, the terminal device determines the starting position of the first duration based on the earliest time domain resource among the first time domain resources, or the terminal device determines the starting position of the first duration based on the latest time domain resource among the first time domain resources.

[0107] Optionally, when the first configuration information is public, such as cell-common or group-common configuration information, the first time domain resource corresponding to the first configuration information may include one or more time domain resources, and / or the first time domain resource may correspond to one or more feedback resources. Optionally, the feedback resource may be a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resource. Optionally, when the first time domain resource corresponding to the first configuration information corresponds to one feedback resource, the response information corresponding to the first configuration information transmitted by the one feedback resource only includes NACK information. Optionally, when the first time domain resource corresponding to the first configuration information corresponds to multiple feedback resources, each feedback resource in the multiple feedback resources is used by a terminal device to transmit the response information corresponding to the first configuration information, for example, the number of terminal devices receiving the first configuration information is the same as the number of feedback resources corresponding to the first time domain resource, and each feedback resource in the multiple feedback resources corresponds one-to-one to each terminal device in the multiple terminal devices. Optionally, when the first time domain resource corresponding to the first configuration information corresponds to multiple feedback resources, each feedback resource in the multiple feedback resources is used for a group of terminal devices to transmit response information corresponding to the first configuration information. For example, the number of groups of terminal devices receiving the first configuration information is the same as the number of feedback resources corresponding to the first time domain resource, and each feedback resource in the multiple feedback resources corresponds one-to-one to each group of terminal devices in the multiple groups of terminal devices.

[0108] For example, the terminal device receives the first configuration information through the first downlink resource and transmits the ACK information corresponding to the first configuration information through the first uplink resource (i.e., the first time domain resource), and the terminal device determines the starting position of the first duration based on the first uplink resource. For example, the starting position of the first duration is after the first uplink resource, and the time distance between the starting position of the first duration (e.g., the starting time slot) and the position of the first uplink resource (e.g., the time slot) is the first offset value. The first offset value is preset or configured by the network side device or determined according to the terminal device capability.

[0109] As a specific example and not limitation, the first configuration information is transmitted via a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) including a media access control layer control unit MAC CE command / message, wherein the ACK information corresponding to the MAC CE command / message is transmitted on time slot n, and the starting time slot of the first duration is the Kth time slot after time slot n+3N, where N represents the number of time slots included in each subframe under the subcarrier spacing configuration μ, and K is a positive integer. For example, the value of K can be 1.

[0110] Optionally, the MAC CE is a MAC CE dedicated to the terminal device.

[0111] Optionally, the MAC CE is a group-common or cell-common MAC CE. Further optionally, time slot n is the earliest time slot among the ACK information transmission time slots corresponding to the MAC CE command, or time slot n is the latest time slot among the ACK information transmission time slots corresponding to the MAC CE command. Alternatively, time slot n is the time slot in which the terminal device transmits ACK information, and the time slot n corresponding to different terminal devices may be the same or different.

[0112] In a possible implementation, the first channel or signal includes a first downlink channel or signal, and the first duration is not used for transmission of the first channel or signal of the first cell, including:

[0113] The first downlink resources in the first duration are not used for the first downlink channel or signal transmission of the first cell; wherein the first downlink resources are resources that allow the transmission of the first downlink channel or signal.

[0114] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned first duration is not used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell, which may mean that the first downlink resource in the first duration is not used for the first downlink channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0115] In the embodiment of the present application, the first downlink resource is a resource that allows transmission of a first downlink channel or signal, which means that the first downlink resource may be a resource used for transmission of the first downlink channel or signal. For example, the first downlink resource may be a resource configured or specified by a protocol for transmission of the first downlink channel or signal.

[0116] For example, the first downlink channel or signal is a synchronization signal block (Synchronization Signal and PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel) Block, SSB), where it is assumed that the configured SSB transmission period is 10 milliseconds and the SSB transmission time domain position is the first two time slots in every 10 milliseconds. The system frame numbers corresponding to the first duration are SFN (System Frame Number) m to SFN n, and the first downlink resources are the resources used to transmit SSB in the first two time slots in each SFN from SFN m to SFN n in the first duration. Accordingly, the network side device does not send SSB on the resources used to transmit SSB in the first two time slots in each SFN from SFN m to SFN n, and the terminal device does not receive SSB on the resources used to transmit SSB in the first two time slots in each SFN from SFN m to SFN n.

[0125] Optionally, the terminal may assume that the network side device does not send a downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to send a downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0126] Optionally, the terminal may assume that the network side device does not send a downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to send a downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0127] 4) It is assumed that the network side device does not send the first downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource in the first duration, or it is not expected that the network side device sends the first downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource in the first duration.

[0128] Optionally, the terminal may assume that the network side device does not send the first downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to send the first downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0130] In a possible implementation, when the first downlink resource in the first duration is not used for the first downlink channel or signal transmission of the first cell, the network-side device may perform at least one of the following actions:

[0131] 1) Assume that the terminal device does not perform a receiving operation on the first downlink resource in the first time duration.

[0132] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not receive a downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the terminal device to receive a downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0133] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not receive a downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell during the first duration, or does not expect the terminal device to receive a downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell during the first duration.

[0134] 2) Assume that the terminal device does not receive the first downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource in the first time duration.

[0135] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not receive the first downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the terminal device to receive the first downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0136] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not receive the first downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the terminal device to receive the first downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0137] 3) No downlink channel or signal is sent on the first downlink resource in the first duration.

[0138] Optionally, the network side device may not send a downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0139] Optionally, the network side device may not send a downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0140] 4) The first downlink channel or signal is not sent on the first downlink resource in the first time duration.

[0141] Optionally, the network side device may not send the first downlink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0142] Optionally, the network side device may not send the first downlink channel or signal on the first downlink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0143] In a possible implementation manner, the downlink channel or signal included in the first downlink channel or signal is predefined; or,

[0144] The downlink channels or signals included in the first downlink channel or signal are determined according to the second configuration information of the network side device.

[0145] For example, the downlink channel or signal included in the above-mentioned first downlink channel or signal may be predefined by the protocol, or the downlink channel or signal included in the above-mentioned first downlink channel or signal may be determined by configuration information sent in advance by the network side device through system messages, RRC signaling or random access messages.

[0146] Optionally, the second configuration information carries at least one of the following information: system message, cell-common RRC message, group-common RRC message, terminal device-specific RRC message, cell-common MAC CE message, group-common MAC CE message, terminal device-specific MAC CE message, cell-common DCI message, group-common DCI message, terminal device-specific DCI message.

[0147] In a possible implementation, the first channel or signal includes a first uplink channel or signal, and the first duration is not used for transmission of the first channel or signal of the first cell, including:

[0148] The first uplink resources in the first duration are not used for transmission of a first uplink channel or signal of the first cell; wherein the first uplink resources are resources that allow transmission of the first uplink channel or signal.

[0149] In the embodiment of the present application, the first duration is not used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell, which may mean that the first uplink resource in the first duration is not used for the first uplink channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0150] In the embodiment of the present application, the first uplink resource is a resource that allows transmission of a first uplink channel or signal, which means that the first uplink resource may be a resource used for transmission of the first uplink channel or signal. For example, the first uplink resource may be a resource configured or specified by a protocol for transmission of the first uplink channel or signal.

[0151] For example, the first uplink channel or signal is PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel), where it is assumed that the configured PRACH transmission period is 10 milliseconds and the PRACH transmission time domain position is the 5th time slot in every 10 milliseconds. The system frame number corresponding to the first duration is SFN m to SFN n, and the first uplink resource is the resource used to transmit PRACH in the 5th time slot in each SFN from SFN m to SFN n in the first duration. Accordingly, the terminal device is not allowed to send PRACH on the resource used to transmit PRACH in the 5th time slot in each SFN from SFN m to SFN n, and the network side device does not receive PRACH on the resource used to transmit PRACH in the 5th time slot in each SFN from SFN m to SFN n.

[0160] Optionally, the terminal device may assume that the network side device does not receive an uplink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to receive an uplink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0161] Optionally, the terminal device may assume that the network side device does not receive an uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to receive an uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0162] 4) It is assumed that the network side device does not receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource in the first duration, or it is not expected that the network side device receives the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource in the first duration.

[0163] Optionally, the terminal device may assume that the network side device does not receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0164] Optionally, the terminal device may assume that the network side device does not receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration, or does not expect the network side device to receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0165] In a possible implementation, when the first uplink resource in the first duration is not used for the first uplink channel or signal transmission of the first cell, the network-side device may perform at least one of the following actions:

[0166] 1) Assume that the terminal device does not perform a sending operation on the first uplink resource in the first duration.

[0167] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not perform a sending operation on the first cell within the first duration.

[0168] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not perform a sending operation on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0169] 2) Assume that the terminal device does not send the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource in the first time duration.

[0170] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not send the first uplink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0171] Optionally, the network side device may assume that the terminal device does not send the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0172] 3) No uplink channel or signal is received on the first uplink resource in the first duration.

[0173] Optionally, the network-side device may not receive an uplink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0174] Optionally, the network-side device may not receive an uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0175] 4) Not receiving the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource in the first duration.

[0176] Optionally, the network-side device may not receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first cell within the first duration.

[0177] Optionally, the network-side device may not receive the first uplink channel or signal on the first uplink resource of the first cell within the first duration.

[0178] In a possible implementation, the first channel or signal includes a first downlink channel or signal and a first uplink channel or signal, wherein the situation in which the first duration is not used for transmission of the first channel or signal of the first cell may include:

[0179] The first downlink resource in the first duration is not used for the first downlink channel or signal transmission of the first cell, and the first uplink resource in the first duration is not used for the first uplink channel or signal transmission of the first cell; wherein, the first downlink resource is a resource that allows transmission of the first downlink channel or signal, and the first uplink resource is a resource that allows transmission of the first uplink channel or signal.

[0180] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, when the terminal device assumes that the network side device does not send the first downlink channel or signal within the first duration, it can be considered that the network side device will not send the first downlink channel or signal within the first duration. If the first downlink channel or signal includes a specific downlink channel or signal, such as a common downlink channel or signal, it can be considered that the network side device will not send the common downlink channel or signal within the first duration, which can achieve energy saving to a certain extent. If the first downlink channel or signal includes all downlink channels or signals, it can be considered that the network side device will not send any downlink channel or signal within the first duration. For example, the network side device can enter a sleep state within the first duration, thereby achieving energy saving.

[0181] In some embodiments, when the terminal device assumes that the network side device does not receive the first uplink channel or signal within the first duration, it can be considered that the network side device will not receive the first uplink channel or signal within the first duration. If the first uplink channel or signal includes a specific uplink channel or signal such as PRACH, it can be considered that the network side device will not perform PRACH detection within the first duration, which can achieve energy saving to a certain extent. If the first uplink channel or signal includes all uplink channels or signals, it can be considered that the network side device will not receive any uplink channel or signal within the first duration. For example, the network side device can enter a sleep state within the first duration, thereby achieving energy saving.

[0182] In some embodiments, when the terminal device and the network side device reach a consensus that no downlink channel or signal and uplink channel or signal transmission will be performed within a first duration, both the terminal device and the network side device can enter a sleep state within the first duration, thereby achieving energy saving.

[0183] In some embodiments, the terminal device not receiving a downlink channel or signal may also be understood as the terminal device not detecting the downlink channel or signal. For example, when the downlink channel or signal includes a PDCCH, the terminal device not receiving the PDCCH may mean that the terminal device does not monitor the PDCCH.

[0184] In some embodiments, the network side device does not receive an uplink channel or signal, which can also be understood as the network side device does not detect the uplink channel or signal. For example, when the uplink channel or signal includes a PRACH, the network side device does not receive the PRACH, which can mean that the network side device does not detect the PRACH.

[0185] In some embodiments, network-side device energy conservation is associated with the transmission of downlink channels or signals. In other embodiments, network-side device energy conservation is associated with the reception of uplink channels or signals. In still other embodiments, network-side device energy conservation is associated with the transmission of downlink channels or signals and the reception of uplink channels or signals.

[0186] In a possible implementation manner, the uplink channel or signal included in the first uplink channel or signal is predefined; or,

[0187] The uplink channels or signals included in the first uplink channel or signal are determined according to third configuration information of the network side device.

[0188] Optionally, the third configuration information carries at least one of the following information: system message, cell-common RRC message, group-common RRC message, terminal device-specific RRC message, cell-common MAC CE message, group-common MAC CE message, terminal device-specific MAC CE message, cell-common DCI message, group-common DCI message, terminal device-specific DCI message.

[0189] In a possible implementation, whether the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell is determined according to fourth configuration information of the network-side device.

[0190] Optionally, the fourth configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0191] A first wake-up signal associated with the first duration; for example, the reference signal associated with the first duration includes a wake-up signal (WUS) associated with the first duration.

[0192] A first physical downlink control channel PDCCH associated with the first duration;

[0193] a first system message associated with a first duration;

[0194] a first MAC CE message associated with the first duration;

[0195] A first RRC message associated with the first duration.

[0196] Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, there may be multiple first durations, for example, a first duration 1 and a first duration 2; assuming that the fourth configuration information is PDCCH, the first duration 1 is associated with PDCCH 1, and the first duration 2 is associated with PDCCH 2; then, whether the first duration 1 is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell is determined according to PDCCH 1; whether the first duration 2 is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell is determined according to PDCCH 2. In other words, whether each first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell is independently determined according to the corresponding fourth configuration information.

[0197] Optionally, the fourth configuration information carries at least one of the following information: system message, cell-common RRC message, group-common RRC message, terminal device-specific RRC message, cell-common MAC CE message, group-common MAC CE message, terminal device-specific MAC CE message, cell-common DCI message, group-common DCI message, terminal device-specific DCI message.

[0198] As an example and not a limitation, the fourth configuration information includes 1 bit, which, when the bit indicates 1, indicates that the first duration is not used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell; and / or, when the bit indicates 0, indicates that the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0199] As another example but not limitation, when the network side device is configured with the fourth configuration information, it indicates that the first duration is not used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell; and / or, when the network side device is not configured with the fourth configuration information, it indicates that the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell.

[0200] In a possible implementation, whether the first duration in the first cycle is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell is agreed upon by a protocol.

[0201] In one possible implementation, the first channel or signal includes a first downlink channel or signal. When the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell, the method includes: the network side device sends the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource in the first duration, and / or the terminal device can receive the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource in the first duration.

[0202] Optionally, the network-side device sends the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell only on the first downlink resource in the first duration, and / or the terminal device can receive the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell only on the first downlink resource in the first duration. In other words, the network-side device does not send the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource other than the first duration, and / or the terminal device does not receive the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource other than the first duration.

[0203] In one possible implementation, the first channel or signal includes a first uplink channel or signal. When the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell, the method includes: the terminal device can send the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration, and / or, the network side device can receive the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration.

[0204] Optionally, the terminal device can only send the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration, and / or the network side device can only receive the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration. In other words, the terminal device does not send the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource other than the first duration, and / or the network side device does not receive the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource other than the first duration.

[0205] In one possible implementation, the first channel or signal includes a first downlink channel or signal and a first uplink channel or signal. When the first duration is used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell, the method includes: the network side device sends the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource in the first duration, and can receive the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration; and / or, the terminal device can receive the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource in the first duration, and can send the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration.

[0206] Optionally, the network side device only sends the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource in the first duration, and can only receive the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration; and / or, the terminal device only receives the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource in the first duration, and can only send the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource in the first duration. In other words, the network side device does not send the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource except for the first duration, and does not receive the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource except for the first duration; and / or, the terminal device does not receive the first downlink channel or signal of the first cell on the first downlink resource except for the first duration, and does not send the first uplink channel or signal of the first cell on the first uplink resource except for the first duration.

[0207] In the embodiment of the present application, the first duration may be a non-periodic duration, or a periodic duration.

[0208] In a possible implementation, acquiring the first duration according to the first configuration information includes:

[0209] A first period is obtained according to the first configuration information, where the first period corresponds to the first cell and includes the first duration mentioned above.

[0210] Optionally, the above-mentioned first configuration information can directly carry the period information of the first period. For example, the period information can further include the starting time point / offset of the starting time point of the above-mentioned first duration, the length of the first duration, the end time point / offset of the end time point of the first duration, etc.

[0211] Optionally, the above-mentioned first configuration information may carry indication information for indirectly determining the period information of the first period, for example, the first configuration information may carry an identifier corresponding to the period information of the first period, or the first configuration information may carry relevant information for calculating the offset of the starting time point / starting time point, the length of the first duration, or the end time point / end time point of the first duration.

[0212] In the embodiment of the present application, since the first period corresponds to the first cell, the first duration not being used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell may mean that the first duration in the first period is not used for the first channel or signal transmission. Correspondingly, the first duration being used for the first channel or signal transmission of the first cell may mean that the first duration in the first period is used for the first channel or signal transmission.

[0213] In a possible implementation, the fourth configuration information of the network-side device may also include at least one of the following situations:

[0214] The first wake-up signal associated with the first period; for example, the reference signal associated with the first period includes the wake-up signal associated with the first period.

[0215] A first physical downlink control channel PDCCH associated with the first period;

[0216] The first system message associated with the first period;
