[0002] New Radio (NR) Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) is mainly used for channel estimation and data demodulation in the NR system. Through channel estimation, the receiving end can obtain channel state information, and then use the channel state information for data demodulation.

[0054] The access network device can also be referred to as a radio access network (RAN) device, a radio access network function or a radio access network unit.

[0055] In order to better understand the embodiments of the present application, the related technologies of the present application are described.

[0056] (I) Artificial intelligence.

[0057] Artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely applied in various fields. Integrating artificial intelligence into wireless communication networks significantly improves technical indicators such as throughput, latency, and user capacity, which is an important task for future wireless communication networks. AI modules have various implementation methods, such as neural networks, decision trees, support vector machines, and Bayesian classifiers. The present application takes neural networks as an example for illustration, but does not limit the specific type of AI module.

[0058] Figure 2 is an example of a neural network structure according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0059] As Figure 2As shown, the structure of the neural network includes an input layer, a hidden layer (also referred to as a hidden layer), and an output layer, the input of the input layer is X1~X n , and the output of the output layer is Y. It should be understood that the present application takes the neural network as an example for illustration, but does not limit the specific type of the AI module.

[0060] Figure 3 is an example of a structure of a neuron according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0061] As shown in Figure 3 , the neural network is composed of neurons. The output of the neuron is z, z=a1w1+…+a k w k +…+a K w K . Wherein a1~a K is the input, w1~w K is the weight (multiplicative coefficient), b is the bias (additive coefficient), and σ(.) is the activation function. The activation function includes the Sigmoid function, the tanh function, the Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) (also referred to as the linear rectification function), etc.

[0062] The parameters of the neural network are optimized by an optimization algorithm. The optimization algorithm is a kind of algorithm that can minimize or maximize the objective function (sometimes also called the loss function). And the objective function is often a mathematical combination of model parameters and data. For example, given data X and its corresponding label Y, a neural network model f(.) is constructed. After having the model, the predicted output f(x) can be obtained according to the input x, and the difference between the predicted value and the true value (f(x)-Y) can be calculated, which is the loss function. The purpose is to find the appropriate W, b to make the value of the above loss function reach the minimum, and the smaller the loss value is, the closer the AI model is to the true situation.

[0063] The optimization algorithm is usually based on the error back propagation (BP) algorithm. The basic idea of the BP algorithm is that the learning process consists of two processes of forward propagation of signals and backward propagation of errors. During forward propagation, the input sample is transmitted from the input layer to the output layer through the processing of each hidden layer. If the actual output of the output layer does not match the expected output, the backward propagation of errors is entered. The error back propagation is to transmit the output error to the input layer through the hidden layer in a certain form, and distribute the error to all units of each layer, so as to obtain the error signal of each unit, which is used as the basis for correcting the weight of each unit. The weight adjustment process of each layer is repeated. The process of continuously adjusting the weight is the learning and training process of the network. This process continues until the error of the network output is reduced to an acceptable level, or the learning time reaches the preset learning time.

[0064] The optimization algorithm can be gradient descent, stochastic gradient descent (SGD), mini-batch gradient descent, momentum method, stochastic gradient descent with momentum (such as Nesterov), adaptive gradient descent (Adagrad), adaptive learning rate optimization algorithm based on gradient descent (Adadelta), root mean square prop (RMSprop), adaptive moment estimation (Adam), etc.

[0065] These optimization algorithms, when the error back propagation is performed, obtain the error / loss from the loss function, derive the current neuron, add the learning rate, the previous gradient / derivative / partial derivative, etc., obtain the gradient, and transmit the gradient to the previous layer.

[0066] According to different types of solutions, the selected AI algorithm and the adopted AI model also have differences.

[0067] Generally speaking, the main method of improving the performance of the 5G network by means of AI is to enhance or replace the existing algorithm or processing module by means of the neural network-based algorithm and AI model. In a specific scenario, the neural network-based algorithm and AI model can achieve better performance than the deterministic algorithm. The neural network includes a deep neural network, a convolutional neural network, a recurrent neural network, etc. With the existing AI tools, the construction, training and verification of the neural network can be realized.

[0068] Replacing the modules in the existing system with AI / machine learning (ML) methods can effectively improve the performance of the system.

[0069] It should be noted that the AI model in the embodiments of the present application can also be referred to as an AI unit, an ML (machine learning) model, an ML unit, an AI structure, an AI feature, a machine learning model, a neural network, a neural network function, a neural network function, etc. Alternatively, the AI model can refer to a processing unit that can implement specific algorithms, formulas, processing flows, capabilities, etc. related to AI, or the AI model can be a processing method, algorithm, function, module or unit for a specific data set, or the AI model can be a processing method, algorithm, function, module or unit running on AI / ML related hardware such as GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), NPU (Neural Processing Unit), TPU (Tensor Processing Unit), ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), etc. The present application does not make specific limitations. The specific data set can include the input and / or output of the AI unit / AI model.

[0070] Optionally, the identifier of the AI unit / AI model can be an AI model identifier, an AI structure identifier, an AI algorithm identifier, or an identifier of a specific data set associated with the AI unit / AI model, or an identifier of a specific scene, environment, channel feature, device related to the AI / ML, or an identifier of a function, feature, capability or module related to the AI / ML. The present application does not make specific limitations.

[0071] (2) DMRS.

[0072] In the NR system, the DMRS is used for demodulation of the data channel.

[0073] The design of DMRS in NR standard meets different deployment scenarios and use cases: the front-loaded design can reduce processing latency; up to 12 orthogonal antenna ports can effectively support Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) applications; the transmission duration is from 2 to 14 Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, and up to 4 DMRS instances can be configured in a slot to support high-speed mobile scenarios. Placing DMRS at the front of the transmission, or as a front-loaded reference signal, helps the system to obtain lower processing latency. This design allows the receiver to perform channel estimation earlier, and once the receiver obtains the channel estimation, the receiver can immediately perform correlation demodulation on the received data that has been buffered, rather than receiving and buffering all the data before processing.

[0074] The DMRS of the NR standard adopts a Gold sequence with a length of 2 31 -1. The sequence generation corresponds to all common resource blocks in the frequency domain, but only those resource blocks used for data transmission are transmitted during data transmission. Generating a reference signal sequence for all Resource Blocks (RBs) provides a set of identical sequences when the same time-frequency resources are used by different terminals. In Multiple users-multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO), the same resource blocks use the same sequence, and different users can superimpose orthogonal sequences on the pseudo-random sequence to maintain user isolation and reduce interference. However, if the underlying pseudo-random sequence (or initial sequence) of each terminal is different, then even for the same time-frequency resource block, the sequence is different.

[0075] For the DMRS of the data channel, according to the frequency domain structure of the DMRS, it can be divided into: DMRS configuration type 1 and DMRS configuration type 2, and both DMRS configuration types support single-symbol and double-symbol structures. Among them, as shown in (a) of FIG. 1, the single-symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 1 supports up to 4 ports, as shown in (b) of FIG. 1, the double-symbol structure supports up to 8 ports; as shown in (a) of FIG. 2, the single-symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 2 supports up to 6 ports, as shown in (b) of FIG. 2, the double-symbol structure supports up to 12 ports. Figure 4 Figure 4 Figure 5 Figure 5 ​​​As shown in (b) in FIG. 1, the double-symbol structure supports a maximum of 12 ports. In addition, DMRS configuration type 1 supports 2 CDM groups, while DMRS configuration type 2 supports 3 CDM groups.

[0076] The NR standard supports two DMRS time-domain structures, the main difference being the position of the first DMRS symbol: mapping type A and mapping type B. Mapping type A: the first DMRS symbol is located in the 2nd or 3rd OFDM symbol within a slot. This mapping places the DMRS at the relative edge of the slot regardless of the starting position of the actual data transmission. Mapping type B: the first DMRS symbol is located in the first OFDM symbol of the data allocation. The position of the DMRS is not relative to the start of the slot, but relative to the start of the data transmission.

[0077] Specifically, the resource mapping of the DMRS is as follows:

[0078]

[0079]

[0080] k' = 0, 1;

[0081]

[0082] n = 0, 1,....

[0083] wherein, denotes the mapping to resource element (k, l) p,μ , denotes a power control parameter for the DMRS used for demodulating the PDSCH, w f (k') denotes a Frequency Division Orthogonal Cover Code (FD-OCC) sequence, wherein the length of the FD-OCC sequence is 2, w t (l') denotes a Time Division Orthogonal Cover Code (TD-OCC) sequence, wherein the length of the TD-OCC sequence is 2, r(2n+k') denotes the 2n+k' position of the DMRS sequence, denotes the DMRS frequency domain occupation position identifier, denotes the DMRS time domain occupation position identifier, and P denotes an antenna port.

[0116] The resource indication method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail in combination with some embodiments and application scenarios thereof, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0117] Figure 6 is a schematic flow chart of the resource indication method 200 according to the embodiments of the present application.

[0118] As Figure 6 shown, the resource indication method 200 can include at least part of the following contents:

[0119] S210, the terminal receives first information from the network side device;

[0120] Wherein, the first information is used to indicate a first resource, and the first resource is used for the terminal to obtain channel state information.

[0121] Exemplarily, the channel state information is used to train an AI model.

[0122] The AI model can be used to replace traditional signal processing modules such as channel estimation or filtering, interpolation, equalization, and channel coding and decoding, and a lower block error ratio (BLER) and complexity can be obtained. In particular, in some special scenarios, the AI model can significantly improve decoding performance.

[0123] Exemplarily, the terminal can report the channel state information to the network side device.

[0124] Exemplarily, the channel state information includes a time domain channel impulse response, a channel frequency response, a pre-coding matrix indicator (PMI), a channel quality indicator (CQI), a rank indication (RI), a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), a received signal strength indication (RSSI), a reference signal receiving power (RSRP), a reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ), and the like.

[0125] Exemplarily, the channel state information can be ideal channel state information, which can refer to channel state information with a precision higher than a certain threshold, or ideal channel state information can refer to channel state information with a similarity to real channel state information higher than a certain threshold.

[0126] Exemplarily, the channel state information can be information that meets a preset condition, which can include the requirement of AI model training for the diversity and flexibility of channel state information, the precision higher than a certain threshold, or the similarity to real channel state information higher than a certain threshold, and the like.

[0127] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal receives first information from the network side device; wherein the first information is used to indicate a first resource, and the first resource is used for the terminal to obtain channel state information. Equivalently, the network side device can flexibly indicate the resource used for the terminal to obtain channel state information through the first information, and thus the diversity and flexibility of the channel state information can be improved.

[0128] In some embodiments, the interference of the first resource is less than or equal to a preset threshold, and the interference of the first resource includes at least one of the following: inter-cell interference, multi-user interference in the same cell, co-frequency interference, and adjacent frequency interference. Alternatively, the interference of the first resource can include the number of interference sources or the interference power intensity.

[0129] For example, when the interference of the first resource is less than or equal to a preset threshold, the first resource can also be referred to as an almost blank resource, a resource for data collection, or a resource for AI model training, which is not limited in the present application.

[0130] It should be noted that for AI model-based channel estimation or filtering, one of the main difficulties of the AI model is to obtain accurate channel state information. For NR DMRS, the actual field-acquired NR DMRS is often affected by inter-cell interference or inter-user interference. Alternatively, the terminal does not know the size of the interference on the NR DMRS resource, and the terminal cannot guarantee that the channel state information obtained on the NR DMRS resource is free of interference. In the case of interference, the terminal cannot guarantee the accuracy of the obtained channel state information, and inaccurate channel state information for AI model training can affect performance.

[0131] In the present embodiment, in order to support data collection of the AI model, the first resource is designed to have interference less than or equal to a preset threshold. That is, the first resource can be a resource configured by the network side device for the terminal to collect ideal channel state information. Alternatively, the terminal can assume that the first resource indicated by the first information has no or little interference (for example, it can be assumed that the network side device selects clean first resources for data collection of the terminal through inter-cell interference coordination). Thus, when the AI model is trained based on the channel state information obtained from the first resource, the accuracy of the obtained channel state information can be guaranteed, and when the AI model is trained using the channel state information, the training effect and performance of the AI model can be guaranteed.

[0132] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate whether the resource for transmitting the first reference signal in the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource is the first resource.

[0133] For example, the first reference signal can be an NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS. The legacy DMRS can be a Long Term Evolution (LTE) DMRS, etc.

[0134] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate whether a resource for transmitting a first reference signal in the PDSCH resource is the first resource.

[0135] For example, when the interference of the first resource is less than or equal to a preset threshold, the first resource can be referred to as an almost blank resource, and the first information is used to indicate whether a resource for transmitting a NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS in the PDSCH resource is an almost blank resource. Specifically, after receiving the first information, if the first information is used to indicate whether a resource for transmitting a NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS in the PDSCH resource is an almost blank resource, the terminal can assume that the network side device has coordinated the resource for transmitting a NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS to be a resource with interference less than or equal to a preset threshold through inter-cell interference coordination. In this case, the terminal can directly determine the resource for transmitting a NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS in the PDSCH resource as an almost blank resource based on the indication of the first information.

[0136] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate a resource position of the first resource, or the first information is used to indicate a resource position of the first resource in the PDSCH resource.

[0137] For example, the first information used to indicate the resource position of the first resource can include at least one of the first information used to indicate a frequency domain resource position of the first resource, or the first information used to indicate a time domain resource position of the first resource.

[0138] For example, the first information used to indicate the resource position of the first resource in the PDSCH resource can include the first information used to indicate a resource position of the first resource in a resource for transmitting a first reference signal in the PDSCH resource, or the first information used to indicate a resource position of the first resource in a resource for transmitting data in the PDSCH resource, or the first information used to indicate a resource position of the first resource in a resource for transmitting a first reference signal and data in the PDSCH resource. The first reference signal can be a NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS.

[0164] Exemplarily, the length of the first time domain unit is smaller than the second time domain unit and the first time domain unit is located within the second time domain unit. For example, when the first time domain resource unit is a specific OFDM symbol, the second time domain resource unit can be the time slot where the specific OFDM symbol is located.

[0165] It should be understood that in other alternative embodiments, the network-side device may further indicate the resource location of a second resource in the first resource, where the first resource is a resource having interference less than or equal to a preset threshold, and the second resource is used to obtain channel state information. The resource location of the second resource may be indicated in the same manner as or different from the manner in which the resource location of the first resource is indicated.

[0176] Exemplarily, the first resource includes at least one reference signal resource set, and the first information includes at least one of the following: configuration information of the at least one reference signal resource set; and a position indication of the at least one reference signal resource set.

[0177] In this embodiment, the first information includes at least one of the following: configuration information of a reference signal resource set; and a position indication of the reference signal resource set. In other words, the network side device can flexibly indicate the configuration information or the position indication of the reference signal resource set. In other words, the network side device can flexibly indicate the resource used by the terminal to acquire channel state information through the configuration information or the position indication of the reference signal resource set, thereby improving the diversity and flexibility of the channel state information.

[0178] In some embodiments, the configuration type of the reference signal resource set includes at least one of the following:

[0183] The same port number corresponds to a single time domain resource unit and a plurality of continuous frequency domain resource units.

[0184] The same port number corresponds to a single frequency domain resource unit and a plurality of continuous time domain resource units.

[0185] The same port number corresponds to a plurality of continuous time domain resource units and a plurality of continuous frequency domain resource units.

[0186] Wherein, M and N are both positive integers greater than or equal to 1.

[0187] Exemplarily, the frequency domain unit can be an RE, a PRB, a subcarrier, a subband, a bandwidth part (BWP), a frequency band, etc. The first time domain resource unit includes at least one of the following: an RE, a PRB, an OFDM symbol, a slot, a subframe, a half frame, a frame.

[0188] Exemplarily, for each OFDM symbol, the resource block of the continuous M subcarriers in the frequency domain is divided into a code division multiplexing group.

[0189] Exemplarily, for each subcarrier, the resource block of the continuous N OFDM symbols in the time domain is divided into a code division multiplexing group.

[0190] Exemplarily, the REs formed by the continuous M subcarriers in the frequency domain and the continuous N OFDM symbols in the time domain are divided into a code division multiplexing group, wherein P = M*N.

[0191] It should be noted that the first configuration type of reference signal resource set, the second configuration type of reference signal resource set, or the third configuration type of reference signal resource set involved in the present application can include one port number or multiple port numbers, which is not limited in the present application. If multiple port numbers are included, when the REs corresponding to different port numbers are the same, the transmission of signals or data can be realized in the form of time division multiplexing (TDM), frequency division multiplexing (FDM), or code division multiplexing (CDM).

[0194] For example, for the first configuration type of reference signal resource set, as shown in (a) of FIG. 7, the single-symbol structure supports a maximum of 2 ports (i.e., port 0 and port 1), as shown in (b) of FIG. 7, the double-symbol structure supports a maximum of 2 ports (i.e., port 0 and port 1); different ports realize parallel transmission of multiple signals on the same time domain resource through FDM.

Figure 17 As shown in (b) of FIG. 2, a double-symbol structure supports a maximum of four ports (i.e., port 0 to port 3); different ports in the same CDM group are realized through CDM to achieve parallel transmission on the same time-frequency domain resource.

[0195] It should be noted that in the present application, the position indication of the reference signal resource set is intended to indicate the distribution of the reference signal resource set in the first resource, but the present application does not limit the specific distribution of the reference signal resource set in the first resource.

[0196] In some embodiments, the position indication of the reference signal resource set comprises at least one of the following:

[0197] an indication of a starting time domain position of a first reference signal resource set;

[0198] an indication of a starting frequency domain position of a first reference signal resource set;

[0199] an indication of a time domain period of the reference signal resource set;

[0200] an indication of a quantity of the reference signal resource set in the time domain;

[0201] an indication of a frequency domain period of the reference signal resource set;

[0202] an indication of a quantity of the reference signal resource set in the frequency domain;

[0203] an indication of each starting resource element (RE) position of the reference signal resource set;

[0204] an indication of a frequency hopping position of the reference signal resource set.

[0205] Exemplarily, the first reference signal resource set can be a reference signal resource set that is first in both the time domain and the frequency domain.

[0206] Exemplarily, the indication of each starting resource element (RE) position of the reference signal resource set can indicate each starting RE position through a bitmap.

[0207] Exemplarily, the position indication of the reference signal resource set may include: an indication of the starting time domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the starting frequency domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain, and an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain. For example, when the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain and the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain are both 1, as Figure 18 As shown, the first resource includes one reference signal resource set.

[0208] Exemplarily, the position indication of the reference signal resource set may include: an indication of the starting time domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the starting frequency domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain, an indication of the time domain period of the reference signal resource set, and an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain. For example, when the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain is 1 and the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain is 5, as shown in FIG. Figure 19 As shown, the first resource includes 5 reference signal resource sets periodically distributed in the time domain.

[0209] Exemplarily, the position indication of the reference signal resource set may include: an indication of the starting time domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the starting frequency domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain, an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain, and an indication of the frequency domain period of the reference signal resource set. For example, when the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain is 1 and the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain is 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 20 As shown, the first resource includes three reference signal resource sets periodically distributed in the frequency domain.

[0210] Exemplarily, the position indication of the reference signal resource set may include: an indication of the starting time domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the starting frequency domain position of the first reference signal resource set, an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain, an indication of the time domain period of the reference signal resource set, an indication of the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain, and an indication of the frequency domain period of the reference signal resource set. For example, when the number of the reference signal resource sets in the time domain is 5 and the number of the reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain is 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 21 As shown, the first resources include 15 reference signal resource sets periodically distributed in the frequency domain and the time domain.

[0211] Exemplarily, the indication of the location of the reference signal resource set can comprise an indication of frequency hopping locations of the reference signal resource set. For example, the indication of the location of the reference signal resource set can comprise an indication of 6 frequency hopping locations as shown in FIG. 6. Figure 22

[0212] Exemplarily, the first resource can comprise reference signal resource sets located within PDSCH resources, or can comprise reference signal resource sets located outside PDSCH resources. Alternatively, at least part of the reference signal resource sets in the first resource can be PDSCH resources. For example, when the number of reference signal resource sets in the time domain is 6 and the number of reference signal resource sets in the frequency domain is 3, the first resource can comprise 18 reference signal resource sets periodically distributed in the frequency domain and the time domain, of which 15 reference signal resource sets are located within PDSCH resources and 3 reference signal resource sets are located outside PDSCH resources, as shown in FIG. 7. Figure 23

[0213] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the starting RE location of the reference signal resource set in the first resource shown in any of FIGS. 1 to 8 can also be indicated by a bitmap, which is not limited in the present application. Figures 18 to 23

[0214] It should be noted that in the present application, as shown in FIG. 9, the indication of the starting time domain location of the first reference signal resource set can be an indication of the starting time domain location relative to the PDSCH resource (i.e., T3), and the indication of the starting frequency domain location of the first reference signal resource set can be an indication of the location relative to the subcarrier 0 of the first physical resource block (PRB) in the PDSCH resource (i.e., F3). Figure 24

[0215] It should be understood that in other alternative embodiments, the network side device can also indicate the resource location of a second resource in the first resource, the first resource being a resource with interference less than or equal to a preset threshold, and the second resource being used to obtain channel state information. Wherein, the first resource is a resource continuous in the time-frequency domain, and the second resource comprises one or more reference signal resource sets.

[0216] For example, when the second resource comprises one reference signal resource set, as shown in FIG. 10, the network side device can indicate the starting time domain location of the reference signal resource set relative to the starting time domain location of the PDSCH resource (i.e., T4), and the starting frequency domain location of the reference signal resource set relative to the subcarrier 0 of the first PRB in the PDSCH resource (i.e., F4). Figure 25 ​​​​As shown, the first information can include an indication of a location of the first resource relative to subcarrier 0 of a first physical resource block (PRB) in PDSCH resources (i.e., F1), an indication of a number of frequency domain resource units occupied by the first resource (i.e., L2), an indication of a location of a first time domain resource unit occupied by the first resource (i.e., T1), and an indication of a number of time domain resource units occupied by the first resource (i.e., L1). When the network-side device indicates the resource location of the second resource to the terminal, the network-side device can indicate to the terminal an indication of a location of a first time domain resource unit occupied by the one set of reference signal resources (i.e., T3) and an indication of a location relative to subcarrier 0 of a first physical resource block (PRB) in PDSCH resources (i.e., F3).

[0217] In some embodiments, the method 200 further includes:

[0218] The terminal determines a power control parameter of the second reference signal transmitted on the first resource based on a number of CDM groups without data (Number of CDM groups without data) corresponding to the set of reference signal resources or a configuration type of the set of reference signal resources; or

[0219] The terminal receives a power indication from the network-side device, the power indication being used to indicate the power control parameter of the second reference signal transmitted on the first resource.

[0220] Exemplarily, the terminal can scale the second reference signal according to the power indication, so that a transmission power of the second reference signal is within a specified range.

[0221] Exemplarily, the terminal can determine the power control parameter according to Table 4 below.

[0222] Table 4

[0223] Number of CDM groups not used for data transmission First configuration type Second configuration type Third configuration type 1 X1 X1 X1 2 X2 X2 - 3 - X3 -

[0224] wherein X1=0dB, which means that the EPER of the first resource is the same as the EPER of PDSCH resources; X2=-3dB, which means that the EPER of the first resource is twice the EPER of PDSCH resources; and X3=4.77dB, which means that the EPER of the first resource is three times the EPER of PDSCH resources.

[0225] In some embodiments, an Energy Per Resource Element (EPER) of each resource element of the first resource is the same as or a multiple of an EPER of a resource of the PDSCH resource used for transmitting data.

[0226] In some embodiments, a Physical Resource Block Group (PRG) configuration of the first resource is the same as or different from a PRG configuration of the PDSCH resource; or

[0227] In a case where a first PRG in the first resource and a second PRG in the PDSCH resource are the same in a frequency domain or the same in a time domain, a precoding matrix used by the first PRG is the same as or different from a precoding matrix used by the second PRG.

[0228] Exemplarily, the network-side device can indicate the PRG configuration of the first resource, or the PRG configuration of the first resource is agreed through a protocol.

[0229] Exemplarily, the PRG configuration of the first resource can include a PRG size. For example, the PRG size of the first resource can be in a range of {2, 4, wideband}. Wideband means that all allocated RBs use the same precoding matrix, and {2, 4} means that the same precoding matrix is used on every 2 or 4 consecutive RBs. The PRG of the first resource can be calculated from PRB 0 of the first resource.

[0230] Exemplarily, the network-side device can further indicate to the terminal that the PRG configuration of the first resource is the same as or different from the PRG configuration of the PDSCH resource, or it can be agreed through a protocol that the PRG configuration of the first resource is the same as or different from the PRG configuration of the PDSCH resource.

[0231] Exemplarily, in a case where a first PRG in the first resource and a second PRG in the PDSCH resource are the same in a frequency domain or the same in a time domain, the network-side device can indicate to the terminal that a precoding matrix used by the first PRG is the same as or different from a precoding matrix used by the second PRG, or it can be agreed through a protocol that the precoding matrix used by the first PRG is the same as or different from the precoding matrix used by the second PRG.

[0232] Exemplarily, if the PRG configuration of the first resource and the PRG configuration of the PDSCH resource are the same, the precoding matrix used in the same PRG in the first resource and the PDSCH resource is the same or different. For example, if the PRG configuration of the first resource and the PRG configuration of the PDSCH resource are the same, the network side device can indicate the terminal that the precoding matrix used in the same PRG in the first resource and the PDSCH resource is the same or different, or it can be agreed that the precoding matrix used in the same PRG in the first resource and the PDSCH resource is the same or different.

[0233] It should be noted that in the frequency domain, the terminal can make certain assumptions about the correlation of the reference signal. This correlation range is defined as a PRG. The terminal can consider that the downlink precoding matrix within the same PRG remains consistent, and this assumption can improve the channel estimation performance. However, between different PRGs, the terminal cannot assume whether the downlink precoding matrix remains consistent. Therefore, this is actually a balance between precoding flexibility and channel estimation performance. The larger the PRG, the better the channel estimation performance, but the worse the precoding flexibility, and vice versa.

[0234] In some embodiments, the sequence type used by the second reference signal transmitted on the first resource is the same as the sequence type used by the first reference signal transmitted on the PDSCH resource, or

[0235] The generation parameter of the initial sequence of the second reference signal transmitted on the first resource is the same as the generation parameter of the initial sequence of the first reference signal transmitted on the PDSCH resource.

[0236] Exemplarily, the first reference signal can be an NR DMRS or a legacy DMRS. The legacy DMRS can be a Long Term Evolution (LTE) DMRS, etc.

[0237] In some embodiments, the first information is a downlink control information (DCI) used for scheduling the PDSCH resource.

[0238] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the first information can also be carried in radio resource control (RRC) signaling or a media access control (MAC) control element (CE), and the present application does not make specific limitations thereto.

[0239] It should be noted that if the interference of the first resource is less than or equal to a preset threshold, the terminal can obtain ideal channel state information on the first resource, which can be used as a label to train an AI model. After the AI model is trained, as shown in Figure 26 the input of the AI model is non-ideal channel state information, and the model output is ideal channel state information; the terminal obtains high-precision channel state information through the AI model, which can be further used for interference cancellation, improving the accuracy of equalization detection, etc. That is, the AI model replaces the channel estimation module, and the more accurate channel estimated by the AI model is used for channel equalization, such as Minimum Mean Square Error-Interference Rejection Combining (MMSE-IRC) equalization, etc. The AI model can also be used for channel interpolation, etc., which is not limited in the present application.

[0240] The resource indication method provided in the embodiments of the present application can be executed by a resource indication device. In the embodiments of the present application, the resource indication method executed by the resource indication device is taken as an example to illustrate the resource indication device provided in the embodiments of the present application.

[0245] In some embodiments, the interference of the first resource is less than or equal to a preset threshold, and the interference of the first resource includes at least one of the following: adjacent cell interference, multi-user interference in the same cell, same frequency interference, and adjacent frequency interference.

[0246] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate whether the resource used to transmit the first reference signal in the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource is the first resource.

[0247] In some embodiments, the first information is used to indicate the resource location of the first resource, or the first information is used to indicate the resource location of the first resource in the PDSCH resource.
