That is, multiple users need to send code-domain orthogonal PUSCH within the same time-frequency resources. This multiplexing technology can significantly improve the uplink capacity and throughput. Summary of the Invention

[0004] After introducing the PUSCH transmission using orthogonal sequences, how to optimize the corresponding system design is an important issue to be considered; the present application discloses a solution to the above problem. It should be noted that the present application can be applied to a variety of wireless communication scenarios, such as communication scenarios of non-terrestrial networks (NTN) and terrestrial networks (TN), and achieve similar technical effects. In addition, adopting a unified solution for different scenarios (including but not limited to communication scenarios of non-terrestrial networks and terrestrial networks) helps to reduce the hardware complexity and cost, or improve the performance. Without conflict, the embodiments and features in any node of the present application can be applied to any other node. Without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other arbitrarily.

[0158] As an example, the first signal overlaps with at least one of the PUCCHs of the first type, and the first signal depends on the at least one of the PUCCHs of the first type.

[0174] Embodiment 3 shows a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture for a user plane and a control plane according to the present application, as shown in the appendix Figure 3 as follows. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture for a user plane 350 and a control plane 300, Figure 3The radio protocol architecture for controlling plane 300 is shown with three layers: Layer 1 (L1), Layer 2 (L2), and Layer 3 (L3). L1 is the lowest layer and implements various PHY (Physical Layer) signal processing functions. L1 will be referred to as PHY301 in this article. Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above PHY301 and is responsible for the link between the first communication node device and the second communication node device as well as between two UEs through PHY301. L2 305 includes a MAC (Medium Access Control) sublayer 302, an RLC (Radio Link Control) sublayer 303, and a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) sublayer 304. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides multiplexing between different radio bearers and logical channels. The PDCP sublayer 304 also provides security by encrypting data packets and provides handover support. The RLC sublayer 303 provides segmentation and reassembly of upper layer data packets, retransmission of lost data packets, and reordering of data packets to compensate for disordered reception due to HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request). The MAC sublayer 302 provides multiplexing between logical and transport channels. The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for allocating various radio resources (e.g., resource blocks) in a cell. The MAC sublayer 302 is also responsible for HARQ operations. The RRC (Radio Resource Control) sublayer 306 in L3 of the control plane 300 is responsible for obtaining radio resources (i.e., radio bearers) and configuring the lower layers using RRC signaling. The radio protocol architecture of the user plane 350 includes Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2). In the user plane 350, the radio protocol architecture is generally the same as the corresponding layers and sublayers in the control plane 300 for the physical layer 351, the PDCP sublayer 354 in the L2 layer 355, the RLC sublayer 353 in the L2 layer 355, and the MAC sublayer 352 in the L2 layer 355. However, the PDCP sublayer 354 also provides header compression for upper layer data packets to reduce radio transmission overhead. The SDAP (Service Data Adaptation Protocol) sublayer 356 is also included in the L2 layer 355 of the user plane 350. The SDAP sublayer 356 is responsible for the mapping between QoS (Quality of Service) flows and data radio bearers (DRBs) to support service diversity.

[0183] Example 4

[0184] Embodiment 4 shows a schematic diagram of a first communication device and a second communication device according to this application, as shown in the appendix Figure 4 as shown. Figure 4 is a block diagram of a first communication device 410 and a second communication device 450 that communicate with each other in an access network.

[0185] The first communication device 410 includes a controller / processor 475, a memory 476, a receiving processor 470, a transmitting processor 416, a multi-antenna receiving processor 472, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 471, a transmitter / receiver 418, and an antenna 420.

[0186] The second communication device 450 includes a controller / processor 459, a memory 460, a data source 467, a transmitting processor 468, a receiving processor 456, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 457, a multi-antenna receiving processor 458, a transmitter / receiver 454, and an antenna 452.

[0187] In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, at the first communication device 410, upper layer data packets from the core network are provided to the controller / processor 475. The controller / processor 475 implements the functionality of the L2 layer. In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, the controller / processor 475 provides header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, multiplexing between logical and transport channels, and radio resource allocation for the second communication device 450 based on various priority metrics. The controller / processor 475 is also responsible for retransmission of lost packets and signaling to the second communication device 450. The transmit processor 416 and the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 implement various signal processing functions for the L1 layer (i.e., the physical layer). The transmit processor 416 implements encoding and interleaving to facilitate forward error correction (FEC) at the second communication device 450, and mapping of signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (e.g., binary phase shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), M-phase shift keying (M-PSK), M-quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM)). The multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs digital space precoding on the encoded and modulated symbols, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing, to generate one or more spatial streams. The transmit processor 416 then maps each spatial stream to subcarriers, multiplexes with reference signals (e.g., pilots) in the time domain and / or frequency domain, and then uses the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to generate a physical channel carrying time-domain multi-carrier symbol streams. Subsequently, the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 performs transmit analog precoding / beamforming operations on the time-domain multi-carrier symbol streams. Each transmitter 418 converts the baseband multi-carrier symbol streams provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 471 into radio frequency streams and then provides them to different antennas 420.

[0188] In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, at the second communication device 450, each receiver 454 receives signals through its corresponding antenna 452. Each receiver 454 recovers the information modulated onto the radio frequency carrier and converts the radio frequency stream into a baseband multi-carrier symbol stream that is provided to the receive processor 456. The receive processor 456 and the multi-antenna receive processor 458 perform various signal processing functions of the L1 layer. The multi-antenna receive processor 458 performs receive analog precoding / beamforming operations on the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream from the receivers 454. The receive processor 456 uses the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to convert the baseband multi-carrier symbol stream after the receive analog precoding / beamforming operations from the time domain to the frequency domain. In the frequency domain, the physical layer data signal and the reference signal are demultiplexed by the receive processor 456, where the reference signal will be used for channel estimation, and the data signal is processed by multi-antenna detection in the multi-antenna receive processor 458 to recover any spatial streams destined for the second communication device 450. The symbols on each spatial stream are demodulated and recovered in the receive processor 456, and soft decisions are generated. Subsequently, the receive processor 456 decodes and de-interleaves the soft decisions to recover the upper layer data and control signals transmitted by the first communication device 410 on the physical channel. Subsequently, the upper layer data and control signals are provided to the controller / processor 459. The controller / processor 459 performs the functions of the L2 layer. The controller / processor 459 may be associated with a memory 460 that stores program code and data. The memory 460 may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, control signal processing to recover upper layer data packets from the core network. Subsequently, the upper layer data packets are provided to all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Various control signals may also be provided to the L3 for L3 processing.

[0189] In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, at the second communication device 450, a data source 467 is used to provide upper layer data packets to a controller / processor 459. The data source 467 represents all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Similar to the transmit function at the first communication device 410 described in the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450, the controller / processor 459 implements header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, and multiplexing between logical and transport channels based on radio resource allocation, and implements L2 layer functions for the user plane and the control plane. The controller / processor 459 is also responsible for retransmission of lost packets and signaling to the first communication device 410. A transmit processor 468 performs modulation mapping and channel coding processing, and a multi-antenna transmit processor 457 performs digital multi-antenna spatial precoding, including codebook-based precoding and non-codebook-based precoding, and beamforming processing. Subsequently, the transmit processor 468 modulates the generated spatial streams into multi-carrier / single-carrier symbol streams, and after analog precoding / beamforming operations in the multi-antenna transmit processor 457, provides them to different antennas 452 via a transmitter 454. Each transmitter 454 first converts the baseband symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmit processor 457 into a radio frequency symbol stream and then provides it to the antenna 452.

[0190] In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, the functions at the first communication device 410 are similar to the receive function at the second communication device 450 described in the transmission from the first communication device 410 to the second communication device 450. Each receiver 418 receives a radio frequency signal through its corresponding antenna 420, converts the received radio frequency signal into a baseband signal, and provides the baseband signal to a multi-antenna receive processor 472 and a receive processor 470. The receive processor 470 and the multi-antenna receive processor 472 jointly implement L1 layer functions. A controller / processor 475 implements L2 layer functions. The controller / processor 475 may be associated with a memory 476 that stores program code and data. The memory 476 may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the transmission from the second communication device 450 to the first communication device 410, the controller / processor 475 provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing to recover upper layer data packets from the second communication device 450. The upper layer data packets from the controller / processor 475 may be provided to the core network.
