Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communications, and more specifically, to an uplink transmission method and a communication device. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the fifth generation mobile communication technology new radio (NR), a variety of communication needs have emerged. In order to meet the needs of emerging services, a subband full duplex (SBFD) solution is proposed to improve the uplink coverage of the time division duplex (TDD) system. Subband full duplex means that in the TDD system, network equipment uses different subbands for uplink and downlink transmission to achieve both reception and transmission in one time slot or one orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol.

[0003] In a TDD system, when the protocol supports terminal devices to send physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetitions, different repetitions can use different spatial parameters. Take PUSCH repetition type A as an example for explanation. Specifically, the network device can configure two sounding reference signal (SRS) resource sets for the terminal device. The terminal device can associate the two SRS resource sets with different time slots based on the existing SRS resource set mapping pattern. The existing SRS resource set mapping pattern includes a cyclic mapping method, a sequential mapping method, etc. After that, the terminal device sends PUSCH repetitions on the corresponding time slots based on the spatial parameters determined by the SRS resource set associated with each time slot.

[0004] Since the channel environment and interference environment corresponding to the SBFD time slot and the uplink time slot (or flexible time slot) are different, if PUSCH repetitions are to be sent in the SBFD time slot and the uplink time slot (or flexible time slot), the optimal spatial domain parameters used to send PUSCH repetitions in the SBFD time slot and the uplink time slot (or flexible time slot) are different. At present, the SBFD time slot and the non-SBFD time slot can be flexibly configured, for example, configured as XXXXU and DXXXU, etc., where X represents the SBFD time slot, U represents the uplink time slot, and D represents the downlink time slot. Based on the existing SRS resource set mapping pattern, it cannot be guaranteed that the SBFD time slot and the non-SBFD time slot are associated with different SRS resource sets, that is, it cannot be guaranteed that different spatial domain parameters are used to send PUSCH repetitions in the SBFD time slot and the non-SBFD time slot.

[0061] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0062] Before introducing the embodiments of the present application, the following points are first explained.

[0063] First, in this application, unless otherwise specified or there is a logical conflict, the terms and / or descriptions between different embodiments are consistent and can be referenced to each other, and the technical features in different embodiments can be combined to form new embodiments according to their internal logical relationships.

[0064] It can be understood that some optional features in the embodiments of the present application may not depend on other features in some scenarios, and may also be combined with other features in some scenarios, without limitation.

[0065] It can be understood that the schemes in the embodiments of the present application can be used in combination, and the explanations or descriptions of the various terms, similar operations or steps appearing in the embodiments can be referenced or explained to each other in each embodiment, and the present application does not limit this.

[0066] Second, in this application, "at least one" means one or more, and "more than one" means two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. In the text description of this application, the character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship. "At least one of the following" or similar expressions refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b and (or) c can mean: a, or, b, or, c, or, a and b, or, a and c, or, b and c, or, a, b and c. Where a, b and c can be single or multiple, respectively.

[0067] Third, in the present application, "first", "second" and various numerical references are used to distinguish for the convenience of description and are not used to limit the scope of the embodiments of the present application. For example, different messages are distinguished, rather than used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0068] Fourth, in this application, the terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or apparatus comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or apparatuses.

[0069] Fifth, in this application, "indication" may include direct indication and indirect indication. When describing that a certain indication information indicates A, it may include that the indication information directly indicates A or indirectly indicates A, but it does not mean that the indication information must carry A.

[0071] Seventh, the arrows or boxes shown by dotted lines in the schematic diagrams of the accompanying drawings in the specification of this application represent optional steps or optional modules.

[0072] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application can be applied to various communication systems, such as: long term evolution (LTE) system, LTE frequency division duplex (FDD) system, LTE time division duplex (TDD), universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) communication system, fifth generation (5G) system or new radio (NR) and future communication systems, vehicle-to-X V2X, where V2X may include vehicle to network (V2N), vehicle to vehicle (V2V), vehicle to infrastructure (V2I), vehicle to pedestrian (V2P), etc., long term evolution-vehicle (LTE-V), Internet of Vehicles, machine type communication (MTC), Internet of Things (IoT), etc. things, IoT), long term evolution-machine (LTE-M), machine to machine (M2M), etc.

[0073] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication system 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application. The communication system 100 includes at least one network device, such as Figure 1 The network device 110 shown; the communication system 100 may also include at least one terminal device, such as Figure 1 The terminal device 120 and / or the terminal device 130 are shown. The network device 110 and the terminal device 120 / 130 can communicate with each other via a wireless link to exchange information. It can be understood that the network device and the terminal device can also be referred to as communication devices.

[0074] A network device is a network-side device with wireless transceiver functions. A network device may be a device in a radio access network (RAN) that provides wireless communication functions for terminal devices, and is called a RAN device. For example, the network device may be a base station, an evolved NodeB (eNodeB), a next generation NodeB (gNB) in a 5G mobile communication system, a base station that is subsequently evolved by 3GPP, a transmission reception point (TRP), an access node in a WiFi system, a wireless relay node, a wireless backhaul node, etc. In communication systems using different radio access technologies (RAT), the names of devices with base station functions may be different. For example, it may be called eNB or eNodeB in an LTE system, and it may be called gNB in ​​a 5G system or NR system. This application does not limit the specific name of the base station. A network device may include one or more co-sited or non-co-sited transmission and reception points. For another example, the network device may include at least one of the following items: one or more centralized units (CU), one or more distributed units (DU), and one or more radio units (RU). Exemplarily, the functions of the CU may be implemented by one entity or different entities. For example, the functions of the CU are further divided, that is, the control plane and the user plane are separated and implemented through different entities, namely the control plane CU entity (i.e., CU-CP entity) and the user plane CU entity (i.e., CU-UP entity). The CU-CP entity and the CU-UP entity can be coupled with the DU to jointly complete the functions of the access network device. For example, the CU is responsible for processing non-real-time protocols and services, and realizing the functions of the radio resource control (RRC) and packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layers. The DU is responsible for processing physical layer protocols and real-time services, and realizing the functions of the radio link control (RLC) layer, the media access control (MAC) layer, and the physical (PHY) layer. In this way, some functions of the wireless access network device can be implemented through multiple network function entities. These network function entities can be network elements in hardware devices, software functions running on dedicated hardware, or virtualized functions instantiated on a platform (e.g., a cloud platform).The network device may also include an active antenna unit (AAU). The AAU implements some physical layer processing functions, radio frequency processing and related functions of the active antenna. Since the information of the RRC layer will eventually become the information of the PHY layer, or be converted from the information of the PHY layer, therefore, under this architecture, high-level signaling, such as RRC layer signaling, can also be considered to be sent by the DU, or, sent by the DU+AAU. It can be understood that the network device can be a device including one or more of a CU node, a DU node, and an AAU node. In addition, the CU can be divided into a network device in the access network (radio access network, RAN), and the CU can also be divided into a network device in the core network (core network, CN), and this application does not limit this. For example, in the vehicle to everything (V2X) technology, the access network device can be a road side unit (RSU). Multiple access network devices in the communication system can be base stations of the same type or base stations of different types. The base station can communicate with the terminal device, or it can communicate with the terminal device through a relay station. In the embodiment of the present application, the device for realizing the function of the network device can be the network device itself, or a device that can support the network device to realize the function, such as a chip system or a combination device or component that can realize the function of the access network device, and the device can be installed in the network device. In the embodiment of the present application, the chip system can be composed of chips, or it can include chips and other discrete devices.

[0075] Terminal equipment is a user-side device with wireless transceiver functions, which can be a fixed device, mobile device, handheld device (such as a mobile phone), wearable device, vehicle-mounted device, or a wireless device built into the above devices (such as a communication module, modem, or chip system, etc.). Terminal equipment is used to connect people, objects, machines, etc., and can be widely used in various scenarios, such as: cellular communication, device-to-device (D2D) communication, V2X communication, machine-to-machine / machine-type communication (M2M / MTC) communication, Internet of Things, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), industrial control, self driving, remote medical, smart grid, smart furniture, smart office, smart wearable, smart transportation, smart city, drones, robots and other scenarios. Exemplarily, the terminal device may be a handheld terminal in cellular communication, a communication device in D2D, an IoT device in MTC, a surveillance camera in intelligent transportation and smart city, or a communication device on a drone, etc. The terminal device may sometimes be referred to as user equipment (UE), user terminal, user device, user unit, user station, terminal, access terminal, access station, UE station, remote station, mobile device or wireless communication device, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, the device for realizing the function of the terminal device may be the terminal device, or may be a device that can support the terminal device to realize the function, such as a chip system or a combination device or component that can realize the function of the terminal device, and the device may be installed in the terminal device.

[0076] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the concepts and related processes involved in the present application are first introduced.

[0077] 1. Symbol: short for time domain symbol, also called OFDM symbol. It should be noted that the time domain symbol can also be named in combination with other multiple access methods, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The time domain symbol length can be different for different subcarrier spacings.

[0078] It should be understood that the symbols in a time slot may include three types: downlink symbols, uplink symbols and flexible symbols. Uplink symbols can only be used for uplink transmission, and downlink symbols can only be used for downlink transmission. Flexible symbols have no fixed transmission direction and can be used for uplink or downlink transmission according to the instructions of control signaling. The symbols in a time slot can be all downlink symbols, or all uplink symbols, or all flexible symbols, or a mixture of several symbols.

[0079] 2. Time unit: A time unit may be a time slot, or a symbol, or a subframe, or a half frame, or a frame, or a mini-subframe, or a mini-time slot, or a transmission occasion (TO), or a nominal repetition, which is not limited in the present application.

[0080] It can be understood that for PUSCH repetition type A, TBoMS PUSCH, or TBoMS PUSCH repetition, a transmission opportunity is defined as L consecutive symbols starting from the start symbol S in one of the one or more time slots allocated with PUSCH repetition type A, TBoMS PUSCH, or TBoMS PUSCH repetition, wherein the start symbol S, the symbol length L, and the first time slot and the number of time slots in the one or more allocated time slots are configured by the network device. Alternatively, it can be understood that a transmission opportunity is defined as all symbols allocated for PUSCH transmission in a time slot. For PUSCH repetition type B, the transmission opportunity is defined as a nominal repetition. There will be corresponding descriptions of PUSCH repetition type A and PUSCH repetition type B later, which will not be described in detail here.

[0081] 3. SBFD: In the SBFD scheme, a carrier is divided into multiple overlapping or non-overlapping subbands, and the transmission directions of different subbands may be different, that is, a carrier includes a non-overlapping first subband and a second subband, and the transmission directions of the first subband and the second subband are different. It should be noted that the first subband and the second subband refer to two types of subbands with different transmission directions, and does not mean that a carrier contains only two subbands. For example, a carrier includes subband #1 and subband #2, wherein the transmission directions of subband #1 and subband #2 are different. Alternatively, a carrier includes subband #1, subband #2 and subband #3, wherein the transmission directions of subband #1 and subband #3 are the same, and the transmission directions of subband #1 and subband #2 are different.

[0082] In the present application, SBFD includes subband overlapping full duplex and subband non-overlapping full duplex.

[0083] 4. Subband: A subband is a partial frequency band in a carrier, that is, one or more continuous physical resource blocks (PRBs) in the frequency domain. In this application, a subband can also be understood as a frequency domain resource. It can be understood that an SBFD subband consists of one resource block (RB) or a group of continuous RBs in the same transmission direction.

[0084] 5. SBFD time unit: The frequency resources on the SBFD time unit include uplink frequency resources and downlink frequency resources, where the uplink frequency resources are used for uplink transmission and the downlink frequency resources are used for downlink transmission. It can be understood that the SBFD time unit includes subbands for uplink transmission and downlink transmission, and the gNB can use the subbands on the SBFD time unit for SBFD operation.

[0085] Figure 2 This is a typical schematic diagram of the time-frequency division of the SBFD scheme. The horizontal axis represents the time domain, and the vertical axis represents the frequency domain. Figure 2 The two rectangles filled with left slashes represent a group of time-frequency resources for downlink transmission, and the rectangle filled with vertical bars represents a group of time-frequency resources for uplink transmission. The time domain resources in the time domain range occupied by these three time-frequency resources are called SBFD time units.

[0086] 6. Non-SBFD time unit: The frequency resource corresponding to each symbol of all the symbols contained in the non-SBFD time unit is only used for downlink transmission or only for uplink transmission. As an example, all the symbols in the non-SBFD time unit are downlink symbols, or all the symbols in the non-SBFD time unit are uplink symbols, or all the symbols in the non-SBFD time unit are flexible symbols, or part of the symbols in the non-full-duplex time unit are downlink symbols and part of the uplink symbols, or part of the symbols in the non-full-duplex time unit are downlink symbols, part of the uplink symbols and part of the flexible symbols, or part of the symbols in the non-full-duplex time unit are downlink symbols and part of the flexible symbols, or part of the symbols in the non-full-duplex time unit are uplink symbols and part of the flexible symbols. For example, Figure 2 The rectangular block filled with right slashes in the middle represents a group of time-frequency resources for uplink transmission. The time slots occupied by them in the time domain are called uplink time units. The transmission direction of all frequency resources on these time units is uplink. These time units can be called non-SBFD time slots.

[0087] 7. Time unit type: including SBFD time unit and non-SBFD time unit. Among them, non-SBFD time unit includes uplink time unit, downlink time unit and SBFD time unit. Among them, the frequency resources corresponding to the uplink time unit are only used for uplink transmission; the frequency resources corresponding to the downlink time unit are only used for downlink transmission; the frequency resources corresponding to the SBFD time unit include uplink frequency resources and downlink frequency resources, among which the uplink frequency resources are used for uplink transmission and the downlink frequency resources are used for downlink transmission.

[0088] It should be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, since the PUSCH cannot be sent in a downlink symbol, unless otherwise specified, the non-SBFD time unit in the embodiment of the present application only includes an uplink time unit and a flexible time unit.

[0089] 8. Multi-slot PUSCH: including PUSCH repetition type A, PUSCH repetition type B, and transport block processing over multiple slots (TBoMS PUSCH). The following is a brief introduction to PUSCH repetition type A and PUSCH repetition type B.

[0090] For PUSCH repetition type A, first, the network device indicates the number of PUSCH repetitions K and a starting time slot. The terminal device traverses the time slots after the starting time slot based on the available time slot counting method. If the traversed time slots meet the inclusion conditions of the counting method of the currently used time slots, they are included in the time slot count of PUSCH repetition type A until the number of included time slots reaches K. After that, the terminal device can send uplink signals on the time slots that can actually be used to transmit uplink signals in the determined K time slots. For example, the time slot counting methods that the terminal device can use include the available time slot counting method and the physical time slot counting method.

[0091] For PUSCH repetition type B, first, the network device can indicate multiple nominal repetition time domain resources in PUSCH repetition type B to the terminal device, and the multiple nominal repetition time domain resources are continuous in the time domain and have equal lengths. Specifically, the network device can indicate the number of nominal PUSCH repetitions K, the starting symbol S of the first nominal repetition time domain resource, and the number of symbols L contained in a nominal repetition to the terminal device, and the number of symbols L contained in each nominal repetition time domain resource is the same, where 0≤S≤13,1≤L≤14, and S+L>14 can be achieved. Starting from the second nominal repetition, the starting symbol of the nominal repetition time domain resource is the next symbol of the end symbol of the previous nominal repetition time domain resource. Secondly, the terminal device determines the invalid symbol in each nominal repetition time domain resource, and the remaining symbols can be considered as potential valid symbols. Afterwards, if the number of consecutive potentially valid symbols (here consecutive refers to the longest consecutive potentially valid symbols) in a time slot in a nominal repetition is greater than 0, an actual repetition can be mapped, and a nominal repetition time domain resource can contain one or more actual repetition time domain resources. The terminal device does not send PUSCH repetitions on the actual repetition of a single symbol unless the duration L of the nominal repetition indicated by the base station is a single symbol.

[0092] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of PUSCH repetition type B transmission. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the starting symbol S of the first nominally repeated time domain resource is shown in the figure, K = 4, L = 6 symbols, that is, the network device indicates 4 nominal repetitions to the terminal device, each nominal repetition includes 6 symbols, and it is assumed that the invalid symbols in each nominally repeated time domain resource are as follows Figure 3 As shown in , except for the invalid symbols, the remaining symbols are potentially valid symbols, and the potentially valid symbols here are all uplink symbols. Then, if Figure 3 As shown, the starting symbol S of the time domain resource of the first nominal repetition is the first symbol from left to right in the figure. Therefore, the starting symbol of the first nominal repetition is the first symbol in the figure, and the ending symbol is the 6th symbol in the figure. The starting symbol of the second nominal repetition is the next symbol of the ending symbol of the first nominal repetition (that is, the 7th symbol), and the ending symbol is the 12th symbol in the figure. The starting symbol and ending symbol of the third nominal repetition and the fourth nominal repetition are the same, and they will not be repeated here one by one.

[0093] 9. SBFD dedicated uplink and downlink timeslot configuration

[0094] According to different configurations of uplink subband and downlink subband in a time slot, exemplarily, the SBFD dedicated uplink and downlink time slot configurations may include the following three types: XXXXX, XXXXU and DXXXU, wherein D represents a downlink time unit, all symbols in the downlink time unit are downlink symbols, and an uplink subband cannot be configured on the downlink symbol; U represents an uplink time unit, all symbols in the uplink time unit are uplink symbols, and a downlink subband cannot be configured on the uplink symbol; and X represents an SBFD time unit, and each symbol in the SBFD time unit can be configured with at least one uplink subband and at least one downlink subband at the same time.

[0095] It should be understood that the number of X in XXXXX, XXXXU and DXXXU is only an exemplary description, and the number of X in the network device can be configured according to actual conditions. In addition, XXXXX, XXXXU and DXXXU can be configured through cell-level uplink and downlink time slot configuration signaling and UE-level uplink and downlink time slot configuration signaling.

[0096] like Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 The following is a schematic diagram of the configuration of SBFD dedicated uplink and downlink time slots. Figure 4 (a) is a possible example of XXXXX. Figure 4 (b) is a possible example of XXXXU. Figure 4 (c) is a possible example of DXXXU. In this configuration method, the UE is not visible to the uplink and downlink subbands configured on the flexible symbols, that is, the UE does not know the frequency resource locations of the uplink and downlink subbands. If the UE determines to perform downlink transmission on the flexible symbols, the gNB should ensure that the UE is instructed to perform downlink reception only in the downlink subbands configured with the flexible symbols. If the UE determines to perform uplink transmission on the flexible symbols, the gNB should ensure that the UE is instructed to perform uplink transmission only in the uplink subbands configured with the flexible symbols.

[0097] At present, in the multiple transmission and reception point (mTRP) scenario, when the protocol supports the UE to send PUSCH repetition type A, different repetitions can use different spatial parameters. Similarly, when the protocol supports the UE to send PUSCH repetition type B, different nominal repetitions use different spatial parameters. For ease of description, the following takes PUSCH repetition type A as an example for a specific description. It should be noted that SBFD is not involved when the terminal device sends PUSCH repetition type A in the following steps 1 to 5.

[0098] Step 1: The network device configures two sounding reference signal (SRS) resource sets (SRS resource sets) for the terminal device through high-level signaling (such as RRC), wherein each SRS resource set includes at least one SRS resource (SRS resource), and the number of SRS resources included in the two SRS resource sets is the same.

[0099] For example, the two SRS resource sets include a first SRS resource set and a second SRS resource set.

[0100] Step 2: The network device schedules the terminal device to send PUSCH repetition type A through downlink control information (DCI). The DCI includes the following parameters.

[0101] (1) An SRS resource set indicator, which is used to indicate the relationship between K repetitions of PUSCH repetition type A and two SRS resource sets, where K is the number of PUSCH repetitions, each repetition corresponds to one time slot, that is, K repetitions correspond to K time slots. For example, the indicator occupies 2 bits. If the number of transmission layers is limited to one layer for PUSCH repetition type A, the following examples illustrate the specific meanings of different values ​​of 2 bits.

[0102] If the 2 bits are "00", the first SRS resource set is associated with K time slots, such as Figure 5 As shown in (a), for example, Figure 5 Take K=4 as an example.

[0103] If the 2 bits are "01", the second SRS resource set is associated with K time slots, such as Figure 5 as shown in (b).

[0104] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the method of distinguishing the first SRS resource set from the second SRS resource set. For example, the two SRS resource sets have different IDs, where the resource set with the smaller ID is the first SRS resource set and the other is the second SRS resource set, or vice versa.

[0105] If the 2 bits are "10", the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the K time slots is determined according to the following method.

[0106] a) When K=2, the first SRS resource set is associated with the first time slot of the K time slots and the second SRS resource set is associated with the second time slot of the K time slots.

[0107] b) When K>2, and the high-level signaling configures the cyclic mapping mode (for example, cyclicMapping is enabled in the PUSCH configuration of RRC), the first SRS resource set is associated with the first time slot of the K time slots and the second SRS resource set is associated with the second time slot of the K time slots, and the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are associated with the remaining time slots of the K time slots based on the same SRS resource set mapping pattern, such as Figure 5 as shown in (c).

[0108] c) When K>2, and the high-level signaling configures the sequential mapping mode (for example, sequentialMapping is enabled in the PUSCH configuration of RRC), the first SRS resource set is associated with the first and second time slots in the K time slots, the second SRS resource set is associated with the third and fourth time slots in the K time slots, and the same SRS resource set mapping pattern continues to be applied to the remaining time slots in the K time slots, such as Figure 5 as shown in (d).

[0109] If the 2 bits are "11", the first SRS resource set in a), b) and c) where the 2 bits are "10" is replaced with the second SRS resource set, and the second SRS resource set is replaced with the first SRS resource set, which will not be repeated here. Figure 5 (e) and Figure 5 The corresponding meaning of (f) will not be repeated here.

[0110] (2) If the uplink transmission is codebook-based uplink transmission, the DCI further includes two SRS resource indicator (SRI) information and two precoding information and number of layers information.

[0111] Among them, the two SRIs include a first SRI and a second SRI, and the two precoding and layer information include first precoding and layer information and second precoding and layer information, wherein the first SRI and the first precoding and layer information are related to the first SRS resource set, and the second SRI and the second precoding and layer information are related to the second SRS resource set.

[0112] Specifically, the first SRI indicates the first SRS resource in the first SRS resource set, the beam associated with the first SRS resource reused in the associated first SRS resource set, and the first precoding and layer number information indicates the number of layers and precoding reused in the associated first SRS resource set. Similarly, the second SRI indicates the second SRS resource in the second SRS resource set, the beam associated with the second SRS resource reused in the associated second SRS resource set, and the second precoding and layer number information indicates the number of layers and precoding reused in the associated second SRS resource set.

[0113] Currently, the protocol stipulates that the first precoding and layer number information and the second precoding and layer number information indicate the same number of layers.

[0114] (3) If the uplink transmission is non-codebook based uplink transmission, the DCI also includes two SRIs.

[0115] The two SRIs include a first SRI and a second SRI, the first SRI is related to the first SRS resource set, and the second SRI is related to the second SRS resource set. It should be noted that the first SRI and the second SRI in (2) and (3) have different meanings.

[0116] Specifically, the first SRI indicates the first SRS resource subset, and the time slot associated with the first SRS resource set uses the beam, number of layers and precoding associated with the first SRS resource subset. Among them, the first SRS resource subset includes at least one SRS resource in the first SRS resource set. For non-codebook uplink transmission, the number of SRS resources included in the first SRS resource subset implicitly indicates the number of layers, and the spatial domain filter associated with the first SRS resource subset also includes the reused beam and precoding information associated with the first SRS resource set.

[0117] Similarly, the second SRI indicates the second SRS resource subset in the second SRS resource set, and the time slot associated with the second SRS resource set uses the beam, number of layers and precoding associated with the second SRS resource subset. Among them, the second SRS resource subset includes at least one SRS resource in the second SRS resource set. For non-codebook uplink transmission, the number of SRS resources included in the second SRS resource subset implicitly indicates the number of layers, and the spatial domain filter associated with the second SRS resource also includes the beam and precoding information used by the time slot associated with the second SRS resource set.

[0118] Currently, the protocol stipulates that the number of layers indicated by the first SRI and the second SRI are the same, that is, the number of SRS resources included in the first SRS resource subset and the second SRS resource subset is the same.

[0119] Step 3: The terminal device determines the association between the two SRS resource sets and K time slots based on the SRS resource set indication information in the DCI described in step 2. For a detailed description, refer to the description of the SRS resource set indication information in parameter (1) in step 2, which will not be repeated here.

[0120] Step 4: The terminal device determines the beam and precoding used to send PUSCH repetition type A.

[0121] If the uplink transmission is a codebook-based uplink transmission, the terminal device can determine the beam and precoding used for sending PUSCH reuse in K time slots based on the description in parameter (2) included in the DCI in step 1.

[0122] If the uplink transmission is a non-codebook based uplink transmission, the terminal device can determine the beam and precoding used to send PUSCH on K time slots based on the description in parameter (3) included in the DCI in step 1, which will not be repeated here.

[0123] Step 5: The terminal device sends K repetitions of PUSCH repetition type A in K time slots based on the corresponding beam and precoding. Correspondingly, the network device receives PUSCH repetition type A from the terminal device.

[0124] For example, Figure 6 As shown, in the mTRP scenario, the network device may include TRP1 and TRP2, wherein TRP1 may receive PUSCH repetitions in a time slot associated with a first SRS resource set, and TRP2 may receive PUSCH repetitions in a time slot associated with a second SRS resource set.

[0125] It can be understood that if the PUSCH repetition type A in the above steps is replaced by PUSCH repetition type B, then the number of transmission layers is also limited to one layer, and only the "time slot" in the above description needs to be modified to "nominal repetition", which will not be repeated here.

[0126] At present, due to various reasons, the channel environment and interference environment corresponding to the SBFD time unit and the uplink time unit (or flexible time unit) are different. The following SBFD time unit and uplink time unit are used as examples to illustrate these reasons, which may include:

[0127] 1) The receiving antennas of the network device in the SBFD time unit and the uplink time unit are different, resulting in that the uplink channel in the SBFD time unit is different from the uplink channel in the uplink time unit.

[0128] For example, the number of receiving antenna ports in the SBFD time unit is half of the number of receiving antenna ports in the uplink time unit, because the other half of the antenna ports are used for downlink transmission.

[0129] For example, the receiving antenna panel on the SBFD time unit is different from the receiving antenna panel on the uplink time unit.

[0130] 2) Compared with the uplink time unit, in the SBFD time unit, the network equipment can send downlink signals while receiving uplink signals. Therefore, the network equipment in the SBFD time unit will suffer from severe self-interference (SI) and cross link interference (CLI), resulting in the interference environment in the SBFD time unit being different from that in the uplink time unit.

[0131] Therefore, the optimal spatial parameters used to send uplink signals on SBFD time units and uplink time units are different. The spatial parameters include: beam, precoder, and layer. In other words, in SBFD duplex mode, the terminal device needs to have the ability to send uplink signals using different spatial parameters on SBFD time units and uplink time units. In particular, when sending multi-slot PUSCH, a transport block (TB) will be sent on multiple time units.

[0132] Depend on Figure 3 It can be seen that SBFD time slots and non-SBFD time slots can be flexibly configured, for example, as XXXXU and DXXXU. Figure 5 The four SRS resource set mapping patterns corresponding to (c), (d), (e) and (f) are associated. These four SRS resource set mapping patterns cannot ensure that different SRS resource sets are associated with the SBFD time slot and the non-SBFD time slot, that is, it cannot ensure that different spatial domain parameters are used to send PUSCH repetitions in the SBFD time slot and the non-SBFD time slot.

[0133] In view of this, the present application proposes an uplink transmission method that can effectively solve the above technical problems. The method proposed in the present application is described in detail below. The processing described below as being performed by a single execution subject can also be divided into being performed by multiple execution subjects, and these execution subjects can be logically and / or physically separated. For example, the processing performed by the network device can be divided into being performed by at least one of the CU, DU and RU.

[0134] like Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7700 is a schematic flow chart of an uplink transmission method 700 proposed in the present application. The method includes the following steps.

[0135] S710, the network device sends a first signaling to the terminal device, the first signaling instructing to send a first signal, wherein the first signal is carried on the PUSCH. Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the first signaling from the network device.

[0136] For example, the first signaling is downlink control information (DCI).

[0137] Illustratively, the first signal is carried on PUSCH repetition type A, or, PUSCH repetition type B, or, TBoMS PUSCH, or, TBoMS PUSCH repetition.

[0138] S720, the terminal device determines that the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit is the first association relationship or the second association relationship, wherein the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are two SRS resource sets configured by the network device for the terminal device.

[0139] Among them, the first association relationship is that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit; the second association relationship is that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit.

[0140] It should be noted that for PUSCH repetition type A, TBoMS PUSCH, or TBoMS PUSCH repetition, the time unit in this application can be understood as a time slot (or transmission opportunity, or repetition); for PUSCH repetition type B, the time unit in this application can be understood as a nominal repetition (or transmission opportunity).

[0141] Optionally, the non-SBFD time unit includes an uplink time unit and a flexible time unit. It can be understood that the solution of the embodiment of the present application is applicable to uplink transmission, and uplink transmission cannot be performed on the downlink time unit, so the non-SBFD time unit does not include the downlink time unit.

[0142] Optionally, the method further includes: the network device sends a second signaling to the terminal device, the second signaling includes information #1, and the information #1 is used to configure a first SRS resource set and a second SRS resource set for the terminal device, wherein each SRS resource set includes at least one SRS resource. Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the second signaling from the network device.

[0143] For example, the second signaling is RRC signaling.

[0144] Optionally, the number of SRS resources included in the first SRS resource subset is equal to the number of SRS resources included in the second SRS resource subset.

[0145] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the method for distinguishing the first SRS resource set from the second SRS resource set. For example, the two SRS resource sets have different IDs, wherein the resource set with a smaller ID is the first SRS resource set, and the other is the second SRS resource set.

[0146] Several specific implementations of the terminal device determining that the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit is the first association relationship or the second association relationship are given below.

[0147] Implementation method 1: The protocol predefines the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit.

[0148] For example, the protocol predefines that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit is the first association relationship.

[0149] For example, the protocol predefines that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit is the second association relationship.

[0150] Implementation method 2: The terminal device determines the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit based on the instruction of the network device.

[0151] Optionally, based on the implementation, the method further includes: the network device sends first information to the terminal device, and the first information indicates a first association relationship or a second association relationship. Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the first information, and determines the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit based on the first information. Specifically, if the first information indicates the first association relationship, the association relationship is determined to be the first association relationship. Similarly, if the first information indicates the second association relationship, the association relationship is determined to be the second association relationship.

[0152] Optionally, when the first information is a first value, it indicates a first association relationship, and when the second information is a second value, it indicates a second association relationship, wherein the first value and the second value are different. For example, the first information is 1-bit information, the first value may be "0", the second value may be "1", or vice versa, which will not be described in detail here.

[0153] Optionally, the first information is carried in the first signaling, and the first signaling is DCI. For example, the first information can be carried in the SRS resource set indication information field of the first signaling. It can be understood that due to the above Figure 5 (a) to Figure 5 The SRS resource set mapping pattern corresponding to (f) is based on the SRS resource set indication information field in the DCI. When the SBFD time unit is introduced, it is not necessary to indicate it through the indication information. Figure 5 (a) to Figure 5 The SRS resource set mapping pattern corresponding to (f) is as follows. Therefore, 1 bit in the SRS resource set indication information field can be redefined / interpreted to indicate the first information.

[0154] Optionally, the first information is carried in the second signaling, and the second signaling is RRC signaling.

[0155] Implementation method three: The terminal device determines the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit based on the fields in the first SRS resource set and / or the second SRS resource set. In this implementation method, both SRS resource sets may include a field for determining the association relationship, or only one of the SRS resource sets may include a field for determining the association relationship, which is illustrated below with an example.

[0156] Example 1: The first SRS resource set includes a first field, and the second SRS resource includes a second field. The first field indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit or a non-SBFD time unit, and the second field indicates that the second SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit or a non-SBFD time unit. The time unit types associated with the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are different.

[0157] For example, when the value of the first field is a first value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit, and when the value of the first field is a second value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit; similarly, when the value of the second field is a first value, it indicates that the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit, and when the value of the second field is a second value, it indicates that the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit. For example, if the first field is a 1-bit field, the first value can be "0" and the second value can be "1", or the first value is "1" and the second value is "0".

[0158] It can be understood that, since the time unit types associated with the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are different, the values ​​of the first field of the first SRS resource set and the second field of the second SRS resource set need to be different, or, it is not expected that the values ​​of the first field of the first SRS resource set and the second field of the second SRS resource set are the same. For example, the value of the first field is a first value, and the value of the second field is a second value, then the terminal device determines that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit based on the first value, and determines that the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit based on the second value, and then determines that the association relationship is the first association relationship. For another example, the value of the first field is a second value, and the value of the second field is a first value, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship is the second association relationship, and the specific determination process is not repeated here.

[0159] Example 2: The first SRS resource set includes the first field or the second SRS resource includes the second field. For descriptions of the first field and the second field, refer to the description in Example 1. The time unit types associated with the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are different.

[0160] For example, the first SRS resource set includes a first field, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit, and the second SRS resource set does not include a second field, indicating that the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship is a first association relationship; similarly, the first SRS resource set does not include the first field, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit, and the second SRS resource set includes a second field, indicating that the second SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship is a second association relationship.

[0161] For example, the first SRS resource set includes a first field, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit, and the second SRS resource set does not include a second field, indicating that the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship is the second association relationship; similarly, the first SRS resource set does not include the first field, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit, and the second SRS resource set includes a second field, indicating that the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit, then the terminal device determines that the association relationship is the first association relationship.

[0162] It should be understood that the above examples do not limit the values ​​of the first field and the second field.

[0163] It can be understood that it is not expected that the first field in the first SRS resource set and the second field in the second SRS resource set exist at the same time, nor is it expected that the first field in the first SRS resource set and the second field in the second SRS resource set do not exist at the same time.

[0164] Implementation method 4: define one of the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set as an SRS resource set dedicated to SBFD and associated only with SBFD time units, and define the other SRS resource set as an SRS resource set dedicated to non-SBFD and associated only with non-SBFD time units.

[0165] It should be noted that the names of the SBFD-specific SRS resource set and the non-SBFD-specific SRS resource set in this implementation are just examples, which are only for the convenience of distinguishing descriptions. This application does not exclude other names for the two SRS resources.

[0166] For example, the two SRS resource sets can be distinguished by different signaling names. The signaling name of the SRS resource set in the current high-level signaling is SRS-ResourceSet, so the signaling name of the SRS resource set dedicated to SBFD needs to be different from it. For example, the signaling name of the SRS resource set dedicated to SBFD can be SRS-ResourceSet-SBFD.

[0167] For example, if the above information #1 configures the first SRS resource set as an SRS resource set dedicated to SBFD, and the second SRS resource set as an SRS resource set dedicated to non-SBFD, the terminal device can know that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit, and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit, and then determines that the association relationship is the first association relationship. For another example, if the information #1 configures the first SRS resource set as an SRS resource set dedicated to non-SBFD, and the second SRS resource set is an SRS resource set dedicated to SBFD, the terminal device can know that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit, and the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit, and then determines that the association relationship is the second association relationship.

[0168] It can be understood that it is not expected that both the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are SRS resource sets not dedicated to SBFD, nor is it expected that both the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set are SRS resource sets dedicated to SBFD.

[0169] It can also be understood that when information #1 is carried in the second signaling, and the second signaling is RRC signaling, the above implementation method three and implementation method four can be regarded as being based on RRC configuration.

[0170] S730, the terminal device sends a first signal in an SBFD time unit based on an SRS resource set associated with the SBFD time unit, and / or sends a first signal in a non-SBFD time unit based on an SRS resource set associated with the non-SBFD time unit. Correspondingly, the network device receives the first signal in the SBFD time unit, and / or receives the first signal in the non-SBFD time unit.

[0171] It can be understood that the terminal device sends the first signal in the SBFD time unit based on the SRS resource set associated with the SBFD time unit, and / or sends the first signal in the non-SBFD time unit based on the SRS resource set associated with the non-SBFD time unit. It can also be alternatively described as the terminal device sends the first signal in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource set based on the first SRS resource set, and / or sends the first signal in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource set based on the second SRS resource set.

[0172] Based on the previous description, it can be known that the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set can be used to determine the spatial domain parameters used by the terminal device to send the uplink signal (i.e., the first signal), including beam, precoding and number of layers, etc. Therefore, sending the first signal based on the corresponding SRS resource set here can also be understood as determining the spatial domain parameters for sending the first signal based on the corresponding SRS resource set, and then sending the first signal based on the determined spatial domain parameters.

[0173] The following describes how to determine the spatial domain parameters used for sending the first signal based on the SRS resource set, using the uplink transmission as codebook-based uplink transmission and the uplink transmission based on non-codebook.

[0174] (1) Uplink transmission is codebook-based uplink transmission.

[0175] Optionally, the first signaling includes a first SRI and a second SRI, wherein the first SRI indicates a first SRS resource in a first SRS resource set, and the second SRI indicates a second SRS resource in a second SRS resource set.

[0176] Optionally, the first signaling includes first layer number information, first precoding information, second layer number information and second precoding information, wherein the first layer number information and the first precoding information are related to the first SRS resource set, and the second layer number information and the second precoding information are related to the second SRS resource set.

[0177] Optionally, the second layer number is equal to the first layer number, so the first layer number information and the second layer number information can indicate only one, and the terminal device can implicitly determine the other layer number information based on the above equal relationship.

[0178] Specifically, if the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., the association relationship is the first association relationship), then in the SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, first layer number information and first precoding information associated with the first SRS resource to send a first signal; in the non-SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, second layer number and second precoding information associated with the second SRS resource to send a first signal.

[0179] Similarly, if the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., the association relationship is the second association relationship), then in the non-SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, first layer number information and first precoding information associated with the first SRS resource to send a first signal; in the SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, second layer number and second precoding information associated with the second SRS resource to send a first signal.

[0180] (2) The uplink transmission is non-codebook based uplink transmission.

[0181] Optionally, the first signaling includes a first SRI and a second SRI, wherein the first SRI indicates a first SRS resource subset in a first SRS resource set, and the first SRS resource subset includes at least one SRS resource in the first SRS resource set; and the second SRI indicates a second SRS resource subset in a second SRS resource set, and the second SRS resource subset includes at least one SRS resource in the second SRS resource set.

[0182] It can be understood that, for non-codebook uplink transmission, the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource subset implicitly indicates the number of layers.

[0183] Optionally, the number of SRS resources included in the first SRS resource subset is equal to the number of SRS resources included in the second SRS resource subset.

[0184] Specifically, if the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., the association relationship is the first association relationship), then in the SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, number of layers and precoding associated with the first SRS resource subset to send a first signal; in the non-SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, number of layers and precoding associated with the second SRS resource subset to send a first signal.

[0185] Similarly, if the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., the association relationship is the second association relationship), then in the non-SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, number of layers and precoding associated with the first SRS resource subset to send the first signal; in the SBFD time unit, the terminal device uses the beam, number of layers and precoding associated with the second SRS resource subset to send the first signal.

[0186] Optionally, the second signaling includes third information, the third information indicates a transmission mode in which the terminal device sends the first signal, and the transmission mode indicated by the third information is one of transmission mode 1 to transmission mode 3. The following specifically introduces the three transmission modes.

[0187] 1) Transmission mode 1: The terminal device can only send the first signal in the same type of time unit.

[0188] It can be understood that if the third information indicates that the transmission mode for the terminal device to send the first signal is transmission mode 1, then the terminal device only sends the first signal in the SBFD time unit, or the terminal device only sends the first signal in the non-SBFD time unit. For example, the terminal device determines to send the first signal in the first time unit set based on transmission mode 1, and the time units included in the first time unit set are all SBFD time units, or the time units included in the first time unit set are all uplink time units and / or flexible time units. Regarding whether the first time unit set determined by the terminal device is all SBFD time units or all non-SBFD time units, a detailed description will be given below with examples, which will not be elaborated here.

[0189] It can also be understood that the terminal device can send different uplink signals on different types of time units, which is not limited here. For example, the network device also instructs the terminal device to send a second signal, and the second signal is also carried on the PUSCH. At the same time, the network device also instructs the terminal device to send the second signal in a transmission mode 1. Then, for example, the terminal device can send the first signal on the SBFD time unit and send the second signal on the non-SBFD time unit, or vice versa, which is not limited in this application.

[0190] It can also be understood that the first signal is carried on the first TB, and the second signal is carried on the second TB, wherein the first TB and the second TB are different TBs.

[0191] 2) Transmission mode 2: The terminal device can send the first signal in different types of time units.

[0192] It can be understood that the third information indicates that the transmission mode for the terminal device to send the first signal is transmission mode 2, then the terminal device can send the first signal across SBFD time units and non-SBFD time units (or across different time unit types). For example, the terminal device determines to send the first signal on the first time unit set based on transmission mode 2, and the first time unit set includes 10 time units, namely XXXUUXXXXU, where X is the SBFD time unit and U is the uplink time unit, and the types of the third time unit and the fourth time unit are different. It can be considered that the terminal device sends the first signal across SBFD time units and non-SBFD time units. Similarly, the types of the fifth time unit and the sixth time unit are different, and the types of the ninth time unit and the tenth time unit are different, which can also be considered as sending the first signal across SBFD time units and non-SBFD time units.

[0193] 3) Transmission mode 3: Determine whether to send the first signal in transmission mode 1 or transmission mode 2 based on the second information.

[0194] Optionally, the method further includes: the network device sends second information to the terminal device, where the second information indicates that the first signal is transmitted in transmission mode 1 or transmission mode 2. Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the second information from the network device.

[0195] It can be understood that the network device can semi-statically configure the three transmission modes through the third information, and under the transmission mode 3, the dynamic switching between the transmission mode 1 and the transmission mode 2 can be achieved through the second information.

[0196] For example, the second information is carried in the SRS resource set indication information of the first signaling, and the first signaling is DCI. It can be understood that this implementation method can realize dynamic switching of two transmission modes by reinterpreting the current SRS resource set indication information field without increasing the DCI length, thereby improving the flexibility of signal transmission.

[0197] like Figure 8 As shown, Figure 8 Schematic diagram of transmitting a first signal in corresponding time units based on transmission mode 1 and transmission mode 2. For example, Figure 8 The first signal is carried in PUSCH repetition type A, and the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit (ie, the first association relationship).

[0198] in, Figure 8 (a) and Figure 8 (b) is a schematic diagram of transmitting the first signal in the corresponding time unit when the third information indicates transmission mode 1, or when the third information indicates transmission mode 3 and the second information indicates transmission mode 1. For example, if the terminal device determines to transmit the first signal only in the SBFD time unit, then Figure 8 As shown in (a), the terminal device sends the PUSCH repetition of the first signal only in the SBFD time unit (that is, the time unit associated with the first SRS resource set); if the terminal device determines to transmit the first signal only in the non-SBFD time unit, then Figure 8 The terminal device shown in (b) sends the first signal only in the non-SBFD time unit (ie, the time unit associated with the second SRS resource set). Figure 8 (c) gives the third information indicating transmission mode 2, or the third information indicates transmission mode 3 and the second information indicates transmission mode 2, the terminal device can send the first signal in the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit (that is, the time unit associated with two SRS resource sets).

[0199] Optionally, when the second information indicates transmission mode 1, the terminal device may be directly informed through the second information to send the first signal in the SBFD time unit or the non-SBFD time unit, or the terminal device may not be informed and determine the time unit type for sending the first signal by itself.

[0200] Example 1: The second information only indicates the transmission method.

[0201] It can be understood that since the network device only indicates that the first signal is transmitted in transmission mode 1, and does not explicitly indicate whether the first signal is transmitted in an SBFD time unit or a non-SBFD time unit, the terminal device needs to further determine whether the first signal is transmitted in an SBFD time unit or a non-SBFD time unit. Several possible ways of determining whether the first signal is transmitted in an SBFD time unit or a non-SBFD time unit are given below.

[0202] Mode 1: The terminal device determines, based on the type of the first time unit to which the first signal is allocated, the type of time unit on which to send the first signal.

[0203] Specifically, if the first time unit is an SBFD time unit, the terminal device sends the first signal only on the SBFD time unit; if the first time unit is an uplink time unit or a flexible time unit, the terminal device sends the first signal only on the uplink time unit and the flexible time unit; if the first time unit is a downlink time unit, the terminal device determines on which type of time unit to send the first signal based on the type of the first non-downlink time unit after the first time unit, which will not be repeated here.

[0204] Method 2: The terminal device determines on which type of time unit to send the first signal according to the SRS resource set associated with the first time unit allocated to the first signal.

[0205] Specifically, if the first time unit is associated with the first SRS resource set, the terminal device sends the first signal only in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource set; if the first time unit is associated with the second SRS resource set, the terminal device sends the first signal only in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource set; if the first time unit is not associated with any SRS resource set, the terminal device determines that the first time unit associated with the SRS resource set after the first time unit is time unit #1, and if the SRS resource set associated with time unit #1 is the first SRS resource set, the terminal device determines to send the first signal only in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource set. Similarly, if the SRS resource set associated with time unit #1 is the second SRS resource set, the terminal device determines to send the first signal only in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource set.

[0206] It can be understood that the above-mentioned method 1 and method 2 are equivalent descriptions and can be replaced with each other.

[0207] In one implementation, the first information described in S720 and the second information in this example can be carried together in 2 bits of the SRS resource set indication information field of the first signaling, the first signaling is DCI, and the meaning of the SRS resource set indication information field is reinterpreted, wherein the first information occupies 1 bit, indicating that the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit is the first association relationship or the second association relationship, and the second information occupies 1 bit, indicating that the transmission mode is transmission mode 1 or transmission mode 2. For example, when the first information takes a value of "0", it indicates the first association relationship, and when the second information takes a value of "1", it indicates the second association relationship, and vice versa. For example, when the second information takes a value of "0", it indicates that the first signal is transmitted in transmission mode 1, and when the second information takes a value of "1", it indicates that the first signal is transmitted in transmission mode 2, and vice versa.

[0208] In another implementation, the first information described in S720 and the second information in this example can be carried together in 2 bits of the SRS resource set indication information field of the first signaling, the first signaling is DCI, and the meaning of the SRS resource set indication information field is reinterpreted. Optionally, the SRS resource set indication information is a first value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 1; the SRS resource set indication information is a second value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 2; the SRS resource set indication information is a third value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit (i.e., a second association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 1; the SRS resource set indication information is a fourth value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., a second association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 2, wherein the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value, the third value, and the fourth value may be one of “00”, “01”, “10”, and “11”.

[0209] Example 2: The second information not only indicates the transmission mode, but also clearly indicates whether the first signal is transmitted in a SBFD time unit or a non-SBFD time unit when the transmission mode is 1.

[0210] Optionally, the second information is a first value, indicating that the terminal device transmits the first signal in transmission mode 1 and sends the first signal only in SBFD time units; the second information is a second value, indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 and sends the first signal only in non-SBFD time units; the second information is a third value, indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2, that is, the terminal device can send the first signal in different types of time units, wherein the first value, the second value and the third value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value and the third value can be one of "00", "01", "10" and "11".

[0211] For example, the above description can also be replaced by: the second information is the first value, indicating that the terminal device transmits the first signal in transmission mode 1, and sends the first signal only in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource set; the second information is the second value, indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1, and sends the first signal only in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource set; the second information is the third value, indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2, that is, the first signal can be sent in the time unit associated with two SRS resource sets.

[0212] In one implementation, the second information is 2-bit information, and the second information can be indicated by 2 bits of the SRS resource set indication information field of the first signaling, and the first signaling is DCI.

[0213] In another implementation, the first information described in S720 and the second information in this example can be carried together in the 2 bits of the SRS resource set indication information field of the first signaling, the first signaling is DCI, and the meaning of the SRS resource set indication information field is reinterpreted. It can be understood that since the second information not only indicates the transmission mode, but also clearly indicates whether the first signal is transmitted in the SBFD time unit or the non-SBFD time unit when the transmission mode is transmission mode 1, there are 6 possible combinations of the two association relationships and the two transmission modes, but the SRS resource set indication information is only 2 bits, so in the implementation, any 4 of the 6 combinations can be selected based on actual needs. The six combinations are: the first combination: indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit (i.e., the first association relationship), and indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device only sends the first signal in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is only sent in the SBFD time unit); the second combination: indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit (i.e., the first association relationship), and indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device only sends the first signal in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is only sent in the non-SBFD time unit); the third combination: indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit (i.e., the second association relationship), and indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 The first signal and the terminal device only sends the first signal in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource (that is, the first signal is only sent in the non-SBFD time unit); the fourth combination: indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit (that is, the second association relationship), and indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device only sends the first signal in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource (that is, the first signal is only sent in the SBFD time unit); combination five: indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit (that is, the first association relationship), and indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2; combination six: indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with the non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with the SBFD time unit (that is, the second association relationship), and indicating that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2.

[0214] For example, the four combinations selected from the six combinations are combination #1, combination #2, combination #3 and combination #4. Optionally, the SRS resource set indication information field is a first value, indicating combination #1, the SRS resource set indication information field is a second value, indicating combination #2, the SRS resource set indication information field is a third value, indicating combination #3, and the SRS resource set indication information field is a fourth value, indicating combination #4, wherein the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value can be one of "00", "01", "10" and "11".

[0215] In yet another implementation, the first information described in S720 and the second information in this example may be carried together in a first field of a first signaling, the length of the first field is 3 bits, and the first signaling is DCI.

[0216] Optionally, when the first field is a first value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends a first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device sends the first signal only in a time unit associated with the first SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is sent only in a SBFD time unit); when the first field is a second value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends a first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device sends the first signal only in a time unit associated with the second SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is sent only in a non-SBFD time unit); when the first field is a third value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., a second association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1. When the first field is a fourth value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., the second association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device sends the first signal only in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is only sent in the SBFD time unit); when the first field is a fifth value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., the first association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2; when the first field is a sixth value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., the second association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2. The first value, the second value, the third value, the fourth value, the fifth value, and the sixth value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value may be one of “000”, “001”, “010”, “011”, “100” and “101”.

[0217] Optionally, in a possible solution, the meaning of the 2 bits in the SRS resource set indication information in the first signaling (DCI) can be redefined, and the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit, as well as the transmission method of the uplink signal, can be indicated by the 2 bits, so that the terminal device reinterprets the meaning of the 2 bits in the SRS resource set indication information in the first signaling (DCI) after receiving the SRS resource set indication information. The following example is used for explanation.

[0218] In one implementation, the SRS resource set indication information is a first value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 1; the SRS resource set indication information is a second value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 2; the SRS resource set indication information is a third value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit (i.e., a second association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 1; the SRS resource set indication information is a fourth value, indicating that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit (i.e., a second association relationship), and instructs the terminal device to send a first signal in transmission mode 2, wherein the first value, the second value, the third value, and the fourth value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value, the third value, and the fourth value may be one of “00”, “01”, “10”, and “11”.

[0219] In another possible implementation, the network device can select any 4 of the 6 combinations described above based on actual needs. For example, the selected 4 combinations are combination #1, combination #2, combination #3 and combination #4. Optionally, when the SRS resource set indication information field is the first value, it indicates combination #1, when the 2 bits are the second value, it indicates combination #2, when the 2 bits are the third value, it indicates combination #3, and when the 2 bits are the fourth value, it indicates combination #4, wherein the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value can be one of "00", "01", "10" and "11".

[0220] In another possible scheme, the first signaling (DCI) includes a first field, the length of the first field is 3 bits, and the first field indicates the association relationship between the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set and the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit, as well as the transmission method of the uplink signal. In this way, the terminal device obtains the association relationship and transmission method based on the first field after receiving the SRS resource set indication information.

[0221] Optionally, when the first field is a first value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends a first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device sends the first signal only in a time unit associated with the first SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is sent only in a SBFD time unit); when the first field is a second value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with an SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., a first association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends a first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device sends the first signal only in a time unit associated with the second SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is sent only in a non-SBFD time unit); when the first field is a third value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., a second association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1. When the first field is a fourth value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., the second association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 1 and the terminal device sends the first signal only in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource (i.e., the first signal is only sent in the SBFD time unit); when the first field is a fifth value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit (i.e., the first association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2; when the first field is a sixth value, it indicates that the first SRS resource set is associated with a non-SBFD time unit and the second SRS resource set is associated with a SBFD time unit (i.e., the second association relationship), and indicates that the terminal device sends the first signal in transmission mode 2. The first value, the second value, the third value, the fourth value, the fifth value, and the sixth value are different from each other. For example, the first value, the second value, the third value and the fourth value may be one of “000”, “001”, “010”, “011”, “100” and “101”.

[0222] The method 700 is described in detail above. It can be seen that in this method, the terminal device can ensure that different SRS resource sets are associated with the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit respectively based on the first association relationship or the second association relationship, thereby ensuring that the first signal is sent using different spatial domain parameters in the SBFD time unit and the non-SBFD time unit.

[0223] It can be understood that method 700 can be applied to a single TRP scenario or an mTRP scenario.

[0224] Optionally, in the Single TRP scenario, the network device in method 700 can be regarded as a TRP.

[0225] Optionally, in the mTRP scenario, the network device in S730 may include a first network device (e.g., a first TRP) and a second network device (e.g., a second TRP). However, it should be noted that in this scenario, the network device in S710 may be the first network device or the second network device, and this application does not limit this.

[0226] The difference from method 700 is that in S730, the first signal sent by the terminal device in the non-SBFD time unit is sent to the first network device, and the first signal sent in the SBFD time unit is sent to the second network device. Correspondingly, the first network device only receives the first signal in the SBFD time unit, and the second network device only receives the first signal in the non-SBFD time unit. This method can ensure the compatibility of SBFD and mTRP.

[0227] For example, if the association relationship is a first association relationship, the first network device receives the first signal only in the SBFD time unit, and the second network device receives the first signal only in the non-SBFD time unit. It can also be understood that the first network device receives the first signal in the time unit associated with the first SRS resource set, and the second network device receives the first signal in the time unit associated with the second SRS resource set.
