Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to an information transmission method, a monitoring method, an apparatus, a terminal, and a network-side device. Background Technology

[0002] To save terminal power consumption, a Low Power Wake-Up Signal (LP-WUS) was proposed, allowing the terminal to enable the LP-WUR (Low Power-Wake-Up Receiver). When the terminal enables the LP-WUR, the main radio frequency (MR) can be in a low-power state, such as being off. The terminal then uses the LP-WUR to receive data. Since the power consumption of receiving data using the LP-WUR is lower than that of receiving data using the MR, using the LP-WUR can significantly reduce terminal power consumption.

[0003] Currently, LP-WUS / LP-SS (Low Power-Synchronization Signal) technology can be used for synchronization processes, Radio Resource Management (RRM) processes, paging processes, Discontinuous Reception (DRX) processes, and Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) monitoring processes.

[0004] During LP-WUS reception, the terminal uses a low-power receiver (LP-WUR) to continuously or at short intervals listen to LP-WUS, the low-power synchronization signal (LP-SS), or the synchronization signal block (SSB). The LP-SS is used by the terminal for synchronization and measurement while listening with the low-power receiver.

[0005] If the terminal receives a wake-up message from the network side, it will activate MapReduce (MR) to enable subsequent data transmission, such as uplink or downlink transmission. However, if the terminal fails to receive the wake-up message (i.e., a false detection occurs on the terminal side), MR will not be activated. Furthermore, the network device will not be able to determine whether a false detection has occurred on the terminal side. Downlink data sent by the network device will not be received by the terminal, and the terminal will also be unable to send uplink data to the network device. In other words, neither the terminal nor the network can perform subsequent data reception or transmission processes, resulting in significant data transmission delays or wasted time. Summary of the Invention
