[0391] Such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides an information reporting method, which is applied to a terminal and specifically includes the following steps:

For one TRP, the channel-related information reported by the terminal includes the relevant information of N ′ measurement quantities, such as the relevant information of each of the N ′ measurement quantities, the value of N

[0399] N ′ is an integer greater than or equal to 0. When N ′ is equal to 0, the value reported by the terminal for N ′ is 0.

[0400] Among them, the channel-related information may be time-related information, angle-related information, energy-related information, or a line-of-sight (LOS) / non-line-of-sight (NLOS) indication flag. Optionally, the channel-related information may include three types: channel impulse response (CIR), power delay profile (PDP), and delay profile (DP). The CIR mainly includes time information, power information, and phase information related to the channel response; the PDP mainly includes time information and power information related to the channel response; the DP mainly includes time information related to the channel response.

[0402] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal reports the channel-related information obtained by measuring the DL-PRS to the first network device, so that the first network device determines the input information of the AI / ML model, and thus completes the position estimation or position calculation process based on the received channel-related information and / or the position of the TRP. In the reporting of the channel-related information, the relevant information of each of the N ′ measurement quantities, the value of N ′ and at least one of the position information of each of the measurement quantities are reported, avoiding the reporting of information of unnecessary measurement quantities, being able to save reporting overhead, and avoiding resource waste.

[0403] Optionally, the measurement quantity includes at least one of the following:

[0415] As an optional embodiment, the N ′ measurement quantities are the first target measurement quantity among N consecutive measurement quantities related to the channel response; N is an integer greater than or equal to 0, and N≥N ′ .

[0416] In this embodiment, the channel-related information reported by the terminal to the first network device can be the information related to the first target measurement quantity selected from N consecutive measurement quantities.

[0417] Optionally, the first target measurement quantity includes at least one of the following:

[0418] (1) A measurement quantity whose value is not the first value; Optionally, the first value is 0. For example, there are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities, and the terminal reports the information related to the measurement quantities that are not 0 among these 10 measurement quantities to the first network device.

[0419] (2) A measurement quantity in the first state; The first state is, for example, the "report" state. For example, there are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities, and the terminal reports the information related to the measurement quantities in the "report" state among these 10 measurement quantities to the first network device.

[0420] (3) The measurement quantity whose value is greater than or equal to the second value, which can also be called the measurement quantity with the strongest power; the second value can be a measurement threshold notified by the first network device or predefined or preset, for example: the second value is "b", and there are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities. The terminal reports to the first network device the relevant information of the measurement quantities among these 10 measurement quantities whose values are greater than "b".

[0421] Optionally, the "greater than or equal to" in the embodiments of the present application may include: >, =, ≥ three cases.

[0431] (b) Consecutive measurement quantities whose status is not the first status;

[0432] The first status is, for example, the "reporting status". For example, there are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities. The terminal reports the number of consecutive measurement quantities among these 10 measurement quantities whose status is not "reporting" (i.e., the status is "not reporting") to the first network device.

[0433] As Figure 2 shown, there are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities (indexes from 0 to 9), and the first status is the "reporting" status.

There are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities. The terminal reports the number of consecutive measurement quantities among these 10 measurement quantities whose value does not satisfy the range between "a and b" to the first network device.

[0440] As Figure 2As shown, there are a total of N = 10 consecutive measurement quantities (indexed from 0 to 9), and the first range is "2 to 20".

[0478] 1) The number of consecutive measurement quantities related to the channel response; the first network device sends the value of the number N of consecutive measurement quantities to the terminal, and then the terminal can directly determine the value of the number N of consecutive measurement quantities.

[0479] 2) The number of measurement quantities that the terminal needs to report; the first network device sends the number of measurement quantities that the terminal needs to report to the terminal, and then the terminal can determine the value of N ′ according to the requirements of the first network device. Optionally, the number of measurement quantities that the first network device needs the terminal to report can be the value of N ′ or the value of the number of first target measurement quantities.

[0480] 3) The maximum value of the number of measurement quantities that the terminal needs to report; the first network device sends the maximum number of measurement quantities that the terminal needs to report to the terminal, and then the terminal can determine the value of N ′The value of

[0481] 4) The minimum value of the number of measurement quantities that need to be reported by the terminal; the first network device sends the minimum number of measurement quantities that need to be reported by the terminal to the terminal, and the terminal can determine N according to the requirements of the first network device ′ The value of

[0483] 6) The type of channel-related information that needs to be reported by the terminal, and the type is, for example, CIR / PDP / DP, etc. Then the terminal can determine the specific content of the relevant information of each measurement quantity included in the channel-related information.

[0484] In this embodiment, the first network device can indicate the reporting scheme of the channel-related information to the terminal through the first information, and the terminal can determine the specific channel-related information in combination with the indication of the first network device.

[0485] It should be noted that the information reporting method of this application is also applicable to the second network device (gNB / TRP) reporting channel-related information to the first network device. When the second network device reports channel-related information to the first network device, the channel-related information is the information obtained by the second network device measuring UL-SRS-pos, and the specific content of the channel-related information is the same as the content of the channel-related information reported by the terminal. Taking the first network device as the LMF as an example. When the AI model is deployed on the LMF side, the UE reports the channel-related information obtained by measuring DL-PRS to the LMF side to determine the input information of the AI model on the LMF side; or, the gNB / TRP reports the channel-related information obtained by measuring UL-SRS-pos to the LMF side to determine the input information of the AI model on the LMF side.

[0486] The channel-related information mainly includes the following three information types: CIR, PDP, DP. It should be noted that the channel-related information may also include other relevant information, which is specifically defined here.

[0487] The implementation process of the information reporting method of this application will be described below through specific embodiments.

[0488] As an optional embodiment, when the UE / gNB reports the channel-related information (such as CIR, PDP, DP) corresponding to a TRP, it may include the following content:

[0489] (1) Report the number N of sampling points and / or paths selected from CIR / PDP / DP ′, the sampling point and / or path can be a sampling point and / or path in the time domain, and the sampling point and / or path can be the sampling point and / or path with the strongest power;

[0490] Assume that the CIR / PDP / DP input to the AI model includes N sampling points and / or paths, then the maximum value of N ′ can be equal to N. Therefore, when reporting the number N of sampling points and / or paths in the CIR / PDP / DP ′ requires log 2 N bits. For different UEs, the value of the number N of sampling points and / or paths in the determined CIR / PDP / DP ′ may be different.

[0491] (2) Report the location information of each sampling point and / or path among the N ′ sampling points and / or paths;

[0492] The location information is the location of each sampling point and / or path among the N ′ sampling points and / or paths in the N sampling points and / or paths. At this time, each location information requires log 2 N bits, and the N ′ location information requires N ′ *log 2 N bits;

[0493] Or,

[0494] Among the N ′ sampling points and / or paths, the location of X sampling points and / or paths is reported in the N sampling points and / or paths, and the remaining N ′ -X sampling points and / or paths report the relative location relative to the X sampling points and / or paths. For example: X = 1, the location of 1 sampling point is reported in the N sampling points, and the remaining N ′ -1 sampling points report the number of sampling points spaced relative to the 1 sampling point;

[0495] (3) Report the power information and / or phase information and / or time information of each sampling point and / or path among the N ′ sampling points and / or paths.

[0496] In this embodiment, taking the channel correlation information as PDP as an example, in the first reporting method, the resource overhead is: N ′ TRP *N port *(log 2 N + N ′ *log 2 N) + N ′TRP *N port *N ′ *B real PDP 。The resource overhead of the second reporting method is: N ′ TRP *N port *N + N ′ TRP *N port *N ′ *B real PDP 。From the perspective of reducing the resource overhead of channel-related information, the UE / gNB can use the first reporting method to report channel-related information when the resource overhead of the first reporting method is small, and use the second reporting method to report channel-related information when the resource overhead of the second reporting method is small. The difference in the resource overhead between the first reporting method and the second reporting method lies in: when (log 2 N + N ′ *log 2 N) ≤ N, that is, when, the resource overhead of the first reporting method is small; when when, the resource overhead of the second reporting method is small. Assuming N = 256, when N ′ ≤ 31, that is, when the number of sampling points and / or paths reported by the UE is less than or equal to 31, the resource overhead of the first reporting method is small; when N ′ > 31, that is, when the number of sampling points and / or paths reported by the UE is greater than 31, the resource overhead of the second reporting method is small. ′ > 31, that is, when the number of sampling points and / or paths reported by the UE is greater than 31, the resource overhead of the second reporting method is small. ′

[0497] The UE / gNB determines the N ′ sampling points and / or paths that need to be reported. The UE / gNB determines the reporting method of CIR / PDP / DP according to the value relationship between N ′ and N:

[0498] A: When N ′ and N satisfy the first formula, assuming the first formula is the content reported by the UE / gNB includes the content in the first reporting method;

[0499] B: When N ′ and N satisfy the second formula, assuming the second formula is the content reported by the UE / gNB includes the content in the second reporting method, specifically including:

[0500] For each TRP:

[0501] Report an N-length bitmap to represent N ′The position of a sampling point and / or path among N sampling points and / or paths;

[0502] Report N ′ The power information and / or phase information and / or time information of each sampling point and / or path among N sampling points and / or paths.

[0503] After determining the reporting mode, the UE / gNB can report a 1-bit indication flag, which is used to indicate that the reporting mode is the first reporting mode or the second reporting mode.

[0504] For example: If the UE indicates the use of the first reporting mode through 0 or 1 in the 1-bit, it means At this time, when the UE reports the number of N ′ in the first reporting mode, it does not require log 2 N bits, only need Or Bits.

[0505] Alternatively, the UE / gNB reports the number of N ′ , and the LMF determines whether the channel-related information is the first reporting mode or the second reporting mode based on the number of N ′ ;

[0506] When , the UE / gNB reports the channel-related information according to the first reporting mode; when , the UE / gNB reports the channel-related information according to the second reporting mode.

[0507] After the LMF determines the number of N ′ and the value of N, it can compare the size relationship between N ′ and N, and then determine whether the reporting content corresponding to the UE is in the first reporting mode or the second reporting mode.

[0508] The LMF can also provide some auxiliary information or indication information to the UE / gNB to indicate the reporting scheme related to the channel. The LMF can send one or more of the following information to the UE / gNB:

[0509] 1) The LMF indicates the value of N;

[0510] 2) The LMF determines the number of N ′ that the UE / gNB needs to report. Based on the relationship between the number of N ′ and the value of N, it determines the reporting mode of the channel-related information and indicates the specific reporting mode (the first reporting mode or the second reporting mode) used by the UE / gNB;

[0511] 3) The LMF indicates the number of N′ The number, based on which the UE / gNB determines the reporting method of channel-related information according to the relationship between the number of N ′ and the value of N, and the UE / gNB reports the channel-related information according to the number of N ′ indicated by the LMF;

[0512] 4) The maximum value of N ′ indicated by the LMF for the UE / gNB to report. The number of sampling points and / or paths reported by the UE / gNB can be less than or equal to the maximum value of N ′ ; The UE / gNB can determine the reporting method according to the finally reported number of sampling points and / or paths;

[0513] 5) The minimum value of N ′ indicated by the LMF for the UE / gNB to report. The number of sampling points and / or paths reported by the UE / gNB can be greater than or equal to the minimum value of N ′ ; The UE / gNB can determine the reporting method according to the finally reported number of sampling points and / or paths;

[0514] 6) The reporting method used by the LMF to indicate the UE / gNB to report the channel-related information;

[0515] This reporting method is related to the number of N ′ , and the UE / gNB then determines the value of reporting N ′ sampling points and / or paths or the maximum value of reporting N ′ sampling points and / or paths or the minimum value of reporting N ′ sampling points and / or paths;

[0516] 7) The LMF can indicate the reporting method, and the UE needs to report according to the indication of the LMF; or, the LMF can indicate the reporting method, but the indication of the LMF is only a recommendation for the UE, and the UE can choose not to report according to the indication of the LMF. The UE can determine which method to report according to its own judgment and report a 1-bit indication flag.

[0517] 8) The type of channel-related information indicated by the LMF for the UE / gNB to report, such as CIR, PDP, DP, etc.

[0518] As an optional embodiment, when the UE / gNB reports the channel-related information (such as CIR, PDP, DP) corresponding to a TRP, it may include the following content:

[0519] (a) Report the number of N ′ , where this N ′ is the number of sampling points and / or paths selected from N sampling points and / or paths. For example: This N′ is the number of sampling points and / or paths with non-zero values among N sampling points and / or paths, or this N ′ is the number of sampling points and / or paths with the first state among N sampling points and / or paths; or this N ′ is the number of sampling points and / or paths with values greater than or equal to a preset threshold among N sampling points and / or paths; or this N ′ is the number of sampling points and / or paths with values within a preset range among N sampling points and / or paths.

[0520] Assume that the CIR / PDP / DP input to the AI model includes N sampling points and / or paths, then N ′ can have a maximum value equal to N. Therefore, when reporting N ′ it requires log 2 N bits.

[0521] (b) Report N ′ duration lengths. This duration length can be the duration for which the sampling points and / or paths with value 0 last;

[0522] One duration length requires log 2 N bits, and N ′ duration lengths require N ′ *log 2 N bits;

[0523] (c) Report the power information and / or phase information and / or time information of each sampling point and / or path among N sampling points and / or paths. ′ In this embodiment, taking the channel correlation information as PDP as an example, the resource overhead of this embodiment is: N

[0524] *N ′ TRP *N port *(log 2 N + N ′ *log 2 N) + N ′ TRP *N port *N ′ *B real PDP . The resource overhead of the second reporting method is: N ′ TRP *N port *N + N ′ TRP *N port *N ′ *Breal PDP In terms of reducing the resource overhead of channel-related information, the UE / gNB can use the first reporting method to report channel-related information when the resource overhead of the first reporting method is small, and use the second reporting method to report channel-related information when the resource overhead of the second reporting method is small. The difference in the resource overhead between the first reporting method and the second reporting method lies in that: when (log 2 N + N ′ *log 2 N) ≤ N, that is, when, the resource overhead of the first reporting method is small; when when, the resource overhead of the second reporting method is small.

[0525] In this embodiment, the UE / gNB determines N ′ sampling points and / or paths that need to be reported. The UE / gNB determines the reporting method of CIR / PDP / DP according to the value relationship between N ′ and N. The specific determination method will not be elaborated here.

[0526] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal reports the channel-related information obtained by measuring the DL-PRS to the first network device, so that the first network device determines the input information of the AI / ML model, and thus completes the position estimation or position calculation process based on the received channel-related information and / or the position of the TRP. In the reporting of channel-related information, the relevant information of each of the N ′ measurement quantities, the value of N ′ and at least one of the position information of each of the measurement quantities are reported respectively, avoiding the reporting of information on unnecessary measurement quantities, saving reporting overhead, and avoiding resource waste.
