It is understood that the aforementioned functional modules can be network elements in hardware devices, software functional modules running on dedicated hardware, or virtualized functional modules instantiated on a platform (e.g., a cloud platform).

[0037] In related technologies, the configuration framework for CSI measurement and reporting includes the following:

[0038] A single CSI report setting can be associated with a maximum of three CSI resource settings (including: CSI resource settings for channel measurements, CSI resource settings for interference measurements (CSI-IM), and CSI resource settings for interference measurements (NZP-CSI-RS)).

[0039] A non-periodic CSI resource setting may contain multiple CSI-RS resource sets (NZP-CSI-RS resource set or CSI-IM resource set) and one SSB measurement resource set, while a periodic or semi-persistent (SP) CSI resource setting may contain only one CSI-RS resource set and one SSB measurement resource set.

[0040] A CSI-RS resource set can contain multiple CSI-RS resources (CSI-IM or NZP-CSI-RS);

[0041] An SSB measurement resource set includes multiple SSBs.

[0042] Related technologies only support beam measurement via CSI-RS or SSB, with CSI-RS for beam measurement having only 1-2 ports. SSB is a periodic reference signal, while CSI-RS for beam measurement can be periodic, semi-continuous, or aperiodic. In the current standard, CSI-RS resources for beam measurement are limited to the serving cell. After performing Layer 1 (L1) beam measurement based on the network-configured measurement resources, the terminal selects a portion of the beams to report based on the measurement results.

[0043] In related technologies, the terminal selects an appropriate beam for reporting based on the full-bandwidth beam measurement results. The measured quantities for full-bandwidth beam measurement can be L1-Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) / L1-Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) / L1-Signal-to-noise and interference ratio (SINR). Beam reporting can be done in two ways: group-based and non-group-based. For non-group-based beam reporting, the terminal selects up to four beams from all measurement resources configured on the network side for reporting, based on the measured quantities. For group-based beam reporting, the terminal selects a pair of beams that can be simultaneously received by the terminal for reporting, based on the measurement results. The reported content includes the measurement resource index and its corresponding measurement value. The measurement resource index (CSI-RS Resource Indicator, CRI) / Synchronization Signal Block Resource Index (SSBRI) is the index of the measurement resource in its corresponding measurement resource set (NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet or CSI-SSB-ResourceSet). The time-domain characteristics of the reported data are similar to those of CSI-RS measurement resources, including periodic reporting, semi-continuous reporting, and aperiodic reporting, as detailed below:

[0044] Periodic reporting: Associated periodic CSI-RS resources, the reported resources are Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources, which are configured by the network through Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling;

[0045] Semi-persistent reporting: It can be associated with periodic or semi-persistent CSI-RS resources. The reported resources can be PUCCH resources or Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resources. The PUCCH resources are determined by the Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) signaling, and the PUSCH resources are determined by the Downlink Control Information (DCI).

[0046] Aperiodic reporting: can be associated with periodic, semi-persistent, or aperiodic CSI-RS resources. The reporting resource is the PUSCH resource, which is determined by DCI.

[0047] In the multi-transmission and receiving node project of related technologies, the group-based beam reporting method has been enhanced. The terminal can select up to 4 pairs of beams that the terminal can receive simultaneously from the measurement resources configured by the network for reporting. Different beams in each pair of beams correspond to different transmission and receiving nodes, thereby ensuring that the network can send the pair of beams simultaneously.

[0048] The related technology also introduces L1 reporting for handover, namely ltm-CSI-ReportConfig. In a single L1 report for handover, the terminal can report up to 4 cells, with each cell reporting 4 beam measurement results, for a maximum of 16 beams and their corresponding measurement results.

[0049] In NR, CSI-RS resources can be used for beam measurement, time-frequency tracking, and CSI measurement. The time-frequency domain resources corresponding to CSI-RS are determined by the higher-level parameter CSI-ResourceMapping, which includes frequency density, number of occupied ports, starting Physical Resource Block (PRB) location, period, time slot offset (only for periodic CSI-RS resources), and CDM type. For all CSI-RS resources in the same set, the following conditions must be met:

[0050] For periodic CSI-RS, all CSI-RS resources in a set have the same period, and the time slot offsets can be the same or different.

[0051] They occupy the same number of ports;

[0052] The initial PRB positions are the same;

[0053] Same frequency domain density;

[0054] Same CDM type;

[0055] The CSI-RS used for beam measurement has a frequency domain density of 0.5, 1, or 3, and can occupy 1 to 2 ports. The corresponding transmit beam can be determined according to the higher-layer parameter repetition. When repetition is configured in the NZP-CSI-RS resource set and its value is "off", or when the repetition parameter is not configured, all CSI-RS resources in the NZP-CSI-RS resource set do not correspond to the same transmit beam; when repetition is configured in the NZP-CSI-RS resource set and its value is "on", it is considered that the CSI-RS resources in the NZP-CSI-RS resource set correspond to the same transmit beam.

[0056] The CSI-RS used for time-frequency tracking, namely the Phase-tracking reference signal (TRS), has a frequency domain density of 3 and occupies only one port. The time domain location of the TRS is determined according to the network configuration and may specifically include at least one of the following:

[0057] For FR1 and FR2, the time-domain positions of the two TRS in a slot can be {4, 8}, {5, 9}, {6, 10};

[0058] For FR2, the time-domain positions of the two TRS in a slot can be {4, 8}, {1, 5}, {2, 6}, {3, 7}, {7, 11}, {9, 13};

[0059] When `trs-info` is configured in the NZP-CSI-RS resource set, it indicates that the NZP-CSI-RS resource set contains TRS resources. A TRS set can contain 2 or 4 TRS resources. Two resources are in one slot, and four resources are in two consecutive slots. The time-frequency domain resource allocation of the four TRS resources is as follows: Figure 2 As shown. Considering the accuracy and precision of time-frequency tracking, the terminal needs to perform time-frequency offset estimation based on the two or four TRSs. Therefore, the two or four TRS resources have the same quasi-co-location (QCL) characteristics.

[0060] For periodic TRS resources, the network does not expect the TRS set to be associated with the reporting configuration. That is, the terminal measures the periodic TRS resources, but does not need to report them. For non-periodic TRS resources, the corresponding TRS set is associated with the reporting configuration so that the network can instruct the transmission of non-periodic TRS resources through DCI signaling. However, since the results do not need to be reported, the reported measurement quantity in the reporting configuration should be set to "none".

[0061] Related technologies do not allow an NZP-CSI-RS resource set to be configured with both the "repetition" and "trs-info" parameters simultaneously.

[0062] The UE's ability to process CSI reports, i.e., the number N CSIs it can simultaneously calculate. CPU This needs to be reported to the network. If a UE supports N... CPU The simultaneous calculation of CSI means that the UE has N CPUEach CSI processing unit (CPU) is used to process CSI reports for all configured cells.

[0063] Number of available CPUs: In a given Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol, if L CPUs are already occupied processing CSI reports, then the UE has N CPUs available. CPU -L available CPUs. If there are N CSI reports to start occupying CPUs on this OFDM symbol, the nth CSI report (n=0,…,N-1) requires CPU time. If the number of available CPUs is less than the number of CPUs required for N CSI reports, then the UE does not need to update NM low-priority CSI reports, where 0 ≤ M ≤ N is a condition that satisfies... The maximum value.

[0064] The CSI report shows the CPU usage as follows:

[0065]

[0066]

[0067] Where K s The number of CSI-RS resources included in the CSI-RS resource set for channel measurements.

[0068] CPU usage time, i.e., the start and end OFDM symbols for CPU usage reported by CSI, are as follows:

[0069]

[0070] Case 1 is the first transmission of a PUSCH-based SP-CSI report activated by PDCCH.

[0071] The values ​​of Z3 and Z3' are shown in the table below.

[0072]

[0073] Xu is the number of symbols reported by the terminal between the last symbol of the SSB / CSI-RS and the first symbol of the channel resource carrying the report for different subcarrier spacings (SCS) μ. KB lThe number of symbols between the first symbol of the aperiodic CSI-RS reported by the corresponding terminal under different SCS and the last symbol of the PDCCH that triggered the aperiodic CSI-RS is as follows:

[0074] Subcarrier spacing is 60kHz and 120kHz: KB l It contains 224 or 336 symbols;

[0075] Subcarrier spacing is 480kHz: KB l It contains 896 or 1344 symbols;

[0076] Subcarrier spacing is 960kHz: KB l It contains 1792 or 2688 symbols.

[0077] To reduce reporting overhead and beam reporting latency, related technologies have proposed L1 beam reporting technology based on terminal event triggering, which means that the terminal will only perform L1 beam reporting when the conditions corresponding to the triggering event are met.

[0078] Triggering events include: at least one identical candidate beam exists, and the number of times the measurement result corresponding to the candidate beam is greater than a certain threshold of the measurement result corresponding to the beam currently being used by the terminal within a time window is not less than a preset number;

[0079] For agreed-upon triggering events, the corresponding measurement reference signal (RS) is determined as follows:

[0080] The measurement RS corresponding to the candidate beam: determined by the RRC configuration, and can be further determined or updated via MAC CE;

[0081] The measurement RS corresponding to the beam currently being used by the terminal is determined based on the Indicated TCI state, including two schemes: one is to determine it based on the QCL source RS of the Indicated TCI state (such as CSI-RS); the other is to determine it based on the QCL root source RS of the Indicated TCI state (such as SSB).

[0082] The reporting modes include Mode A and Mode B:

[0083] Mode A includes:

[0084] Step-1: The terminal sends a trigger reporting indication message (1 bit) on the PUCCH resource;

[0085] Step-2: The terminal receives feedback information from the network side (such as PDCCH), which is used to schedule a PUSCH resource carrying a report;

[0086] Step-3: The terminal sends a report on the PUSCH resource;

[0087] Mode B includes:

[0088] Step-1: The terminal sends a trigger reporting indication message (1 bit) on the PUCCH resource;

[0089] Step-2: The terminal sends a report on the uplink resources pre-allocated by the network.

[0090] The report processing method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0091] This application provides a method for processing reports, such as... Figure 3 As shown, it includes:

[0092] Step 101: The terminal processes the report triggered by the terminal, including at least one of the following:

[0093] Determine the number of processing units occupied by the report;

[0094] Determine the processing time occupied by the report;

[0095] The report is used to feed back channel state information to the network side.

[0096] In this application embodiment, the processing criteria for terminal-triggered reports are defined, including determining the number of processing units occupied by the report and determining the processing time occupied by the report, which standardizes the operation in the terminal-triggered reporting process and improves the feasibility of terminal-triggered report feedback channel status information.

[0097] The aforementioned report can be a CSI report.

[0098] In some embodiments, the report triggered by the terminal includes at least one of a first piece of information and a second piece of information, wherein the first piece of information includes at least one of the following:

[0099] The first indication information is used to indicate whether the triggering event is met, wherein the triggering event is a condition for terminal triggering a report as configured by the network side or specified by the protocol; the first indication information may also be used to indicate that the triggering event is met; the first indication information may also be used to request a third uplink resource, wherein the third uplink resource is a resource used to carry the second information; the first indication information may also be used to indicate the usage status of a fourth uplink resource, wherein the fourth uplink resource is an uplink resource pre-configured by the network side to carry the second information.

[0100] Further optionally, the size of the first indication information can be 1 bit or more bits.

[0101] The second indication information is used to indicate the payload size of the second information, and the payload size includes at least one of the following: number of bits and numerical range. For example, if the second information is A bits, the payload size can be A, or [A1, A2], where A1 ≤ A ≤ A2;

[0102] The third instruction information is used to indicate the resource carrying the second information;

[0103] The first part of the report includes broadband channel state information, specifically including at least one of the following: L1-RSRP / L1-SINR report, CRI, Rank indicator (RI), first TB broadband channel quality indicator (CQI), first TB subband differential CQI, number of non-zero broadband coefficients in Layer 0, and number of non-zero broadband coefficients in Layer 1.

[0104] In some embodiments, the second information includes at least one of the following:

[0105] An identifier for at least one reference signal;

[0106] At least one measurement result;

[0107] At least one identifier for the triggering event;

[0108] At least one of the report configuration identification information of the report;

[0109] The identification information of at least one member carrier or cell associated with the report;

[0110] The second part of the report includes channel state information for the sub-band, specifically including at least one of the following: wideband CQI, RI, wideband precoding matrix indicator (PMI), sub-band differential channel quality indicator (CQI), and sub-band PMI corresponding to the second transport block (TB).

[0111] In some embodiments, the report includes the first information; or, the report includes both the first information and the second information.

[0112] In some embodiments, within a symbol, the number of processing units for processing the report does not exceed the capability of the terminal, wherein the report includes a terminal-triggered report and a first report, the first report being at least one of a periodic report, a semi-persistent report, an aperiodic report, a periodic mobility handover LTM report, a semi-persistent LTM report, and an aperiodic LTM report.

[0113] In some embodiments, the terminal processes the report triggered by the terminal according to a first preset rule, the first preset rule including at least one of the following:

[0114] The number of processing units occupied by the report is determined based on third information, which includes at least one of the following: the measurement quantity corresponding to the report, the number of measurement resources associated with the report, the processing operation corresponding to the report, and the reporting mode of the report; for example, the number of CPUs required for CSI reports with different reporting modes may be different.

[0115] The processing time occupied by the report is determined based on the start and end times, wherein the processing includes at least one of calculation and measurement.

[0116] In some embodiments, the number of processing units required to process the first information is the same as the number of processing units required to process the second information. For example, when the uplink resources carrying the CSI report and the uplink resources carrying the first information are far apart, the terminal needs to measure RS in real time to update the measurement results, so the CPU usage is the same. Alternatively, the number of processing units required to process the first information is different from the number of processing units required to process the second information. For example, when the uplink resources carrying the CSI report and the uplink resources carrying the first information are far apart, the terminal does not need to measure RS in real time or there may be no RS resources within the interval. Therefore, the terminal only needs to cache the previous measurement results, so the CPU usage is less.

[0138] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0139] When N reports need to be processed simultaneously, and the number of processing units occupied by the N reports exceeds the capacity of the terminal, the priority of the N reports is determined according to the second preset rule, and the NM reports with the lowest priority among the N reports are not updated, where M and N are positive integers, and M is the maximum number of reports that the terminal can process.

[0140] In some embodiments, the second preset rule includes at least one of the following:

[0141] The terminal-triggered report has a higher priority than the first report, which is at least one of the following: periodic report, semi-persistent report, aperiodic report, periodic mobility handover LTM report, semi-persistent LTM report, and aperiodic LTM report.

[0142] The first information in the second report triggered by the terminal has a higher priority than the second information in the third report triggered by the terminal.

[0143] The first information in the fourth report triggered by the terminal has a higher priority than the first information in the fifth report triggered by the terminal.

[0144] The second information in the fourth report triggered by the terminal has a higher priority than the second information in the fifth report triggered by the terminal.

[0145] Optionally, the second report triggered by the terminal and the third report triggered by the terminal are associated with the same reporting attributes, which include at least one of the following:

[0146] The associated measurement resource type, i.e., RS type, SSB, CSI-RS for BM, or TRS;

[0147] Measured parameters, namely L1-RSRP, L1-SINR, broadband CSI parameters (PMI, RI, CQI, LI), and narrowband CSI parameters (PMI, RI, CQI, LI).

[0148] Reporting mode.

[0149] In some embodiments, the fourth report and the fifth report are associated with different report attributes, wherein the report attributes include at least one of the following: the value of the report configuration identifier, the measurement quantity of the report, the measurement resource associated with the report, the reporting mode of the report, and the priority of the report. The report attributes that the fourth report and the fifth report are associated with different attributes include at least one of the following:

[0150] The values ​​of the report configuration identifiers are different; for example, the value of the report configuration identifier corresponding to the fourth report is less than the value of the report configuration identifier corresponding to the fifth report.

[0151] The measurements in the reports are different. For example, the measurement in the fourth report is L1-RSRP / L1-SINR, while the measurement in the fifth report is a measurement other than L1-RSRP / L1-SINR.

[0152] The measurement resources associated with the reports are different. For example, the measurement resource associated with the fourth report is SSB, while the measurement resource associated with the fifth report is CSI-RS for BM or TRS.

[0153] The reporting modes of the reports are different. For example, the reporting mode of the fourth report is the first mode (mode A or B), and the reporting mode of the fifth report is the second mode (mode A or B).

[0154] The reports have different priorities; for example, the fourth report has a lower priority than the fifth report.

[0155] The priority value of the report triggered by the terminal can be determined according to at least one of the following:

[0156] The report's configuration identifier;

[0157] The report includes the associated measurements;

[0158] The type of measurement resource associated with the report;

[0159] The reporting mode associated with the report;

[0160] The reporting resources associated with the report.

[0161] Taking a CSI report as an example, in one specific embodiment, if the triggering event is not satisfied within the first time window, or if the triggering event is satisfied within the first time window but the terminal does not detect the first DCI, the CSI report triggered by the terminal only includes the first information. Therefore, the terminal only needs to complete the acquisition and processing of the first information, and consequently, the corresponding CSI processing unit only needs to consider the first information. Specifically, as follows... Figure 4As shown, the CPU usage time of the CSI report can be T1 (starting from the first symbol of the earliest transmission occasion in the measurement resources associated with the CSI report in the first time window, and ending from the last symbol of the first uplink resource (i.e., PUCCH#1) used to carry the first information) or T2 (starting from the first symbol of the first time window, and ending from the last symbol of the first uplink resource (i.e., PUCCH#1) used to carry the first information).

[0162] In another specific embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the trigger event is satisfied within the first time window, and the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH#1. After sending the first information, the terminal detects the first DCI and sends a CSI report on PUSCH#1 scheduled by the first DCI. Therefore, the CSI report triggered by the terminal includes the first information and the second information, and the CSI processing unit needs to consider both parts simultaneously. In this case, the simplest CPU usage criterion is that the terminal always occupies a certain amount of CSI processing units from the acquisition of the first information until the completion of the transmission of the second information, i.e., T1 (starting from the first symbol of the earliest transmission occasion in the measurement resources associated with the CSI report in the first time window, ending at the last symbol of the second uplink resource (i.e., PUSCH#1) used to carry the CSI report) or T2 (starting from the first symbol of the first time window, ending at the last symbol of the second uplink resource (i.e., PUSCH#1) used to carry the CSI report).

[0163] The corresponding CPU usage may be the same within time periods T1 or T2, depending on the type of measurement. However, considering that the specific operations and their complexity performed by the terminal differ across different time periods within T1 or T2, for example, the terminal may need to perform measurements and statistical analysis within the first time window, while within the time period from DCI#1 to PUSCH#1, the terminal may only need to map the reported content to PUSCH resources. Therefore, to improve the effective utilization of the CSI processing unit, CPU usage can be segmented, meaning that the CPU usage varies across different time periods. Specifically, in Figure 5 During the time interval t1 / t2 to t4, the terminal needs to perform measurements and cache the results, so the CPU usage can be X. During the time interval t4 to t5, the terminal only needs to cache the measurement results, so the corresponding CPU usage is Y, where X is not less than Y. The specific values ​​of X and Y can be determined based on the measurement quantity.

[0164] like Figure 6As shown, the trigger event is satisfied within the first time window, and the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH#1. After sending the first information, the terminal sends the second information on the network-pre-allocated PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2. Therefore, the CSI report triggered by the terminal includes both the first and second information, and the CSI processing unit needs to consider both parts simultaneously. In this case, the simplest CPU usage criterion is that the terminal always occupies a certain number of CSI processing units from the acquisition of the first information until the completion of the transmission of the second information. Specifically, this means that T1 (starting from the first symbol of the earliest transmission occasion in the measurement resources associated with the CSI report within the first time window, ending at the last symbol of the second uplink resource (i.e., PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2) used to carry the CSI report) or T2 (starting from the first symbol of the first time window, ending at the last symbol of the second uplink resource (i.e., PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2) used to carry the CSI report) is used for this purpose.

[0165] The corresponding CPU usage may be the same within time periods T1 or T2, depending on the type of measurement. However, considering that the specific operations and their complexity performed by the terminal differ across different time periods within T1 or T2, for example, the terminal may need to perform measurements and statistical analysis within the first time window, while in the time period from t4 to t5, the terminal may only need to map the reported content to PUSCH resources. Therefore, to improve the effective utilization of the CSI processing unit, CPU usage can be segmented, meaning that the CPU usage varies across different time periods. Specifically, in Figure 6 During the time interval t1 / t2 to t4, the terminal needs to perform measurements and cache the results, so the CPU usage can be X. During the time interval t4 to t5, the terminal only needs to cache the measurement results, so the corresponding CPU usage is Y, where X is not less than Y. The specific values ​​of X and Y can be determined based on the measurement quantity.

[0166] In another specific embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, the trigger event is satisfied within the first time window, and the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH#1. After sending the first information, the terminal detects the first DCI and sends a CSI report on PUSCH#1 scheduled by the first DCI. Therefore, the CSI report triggered by the terminal includes both the first and second information, and the CSI processing unit needs to consider both parts simultaneously. In this case, compared to the terminal always occupying a certain amount of CSI processing unit from the acquisition of the first information to the completion of the second information, the two-step CPU usage saves UE measurement resources. That is, as... Figure 7In the process, the CPU time occupied by the terminal in acquiring and processing the first information is T1 / T2, and the CPU usage is X; the CPU time occupied by the terminal in acquiring and processing the second information is T3 (starting from the first symbol after the PDCCH corresponding to the first DCI and ending from the last symbol of PUSCH#1), and the CPU usage is Y. During the time from PUCCH#1 to DCI#1, the CSI report does not occupy CPU. The values ​​of X and Y can be the same or different, depending on the interval between DCI#1 and PUSCH#1. If the interval is long, or if measurement resources exist in between, the value of X can be equal to Y; otherwise, Y is less than X. The specific values ​​of X and Y are determined based on the measurement quantity or specified by the protocol. For example, when the measurement quantity is L1-RSRP, X = 1, Y = 1 or 0.5.

[0167] like Figure 8 As shown, the trigger event is satisfied within the first time window, and the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH#1. After sending the first information, the terminal sends the second information on the network-pre-allocated PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2. Therefore, the CSI report triggered by the terminal includes both the first and second information, and the CSI processing unit needs to consider both parts simultaneously. In this case, compared to the terminal always occupying a certain amount of CSI processing unit from the acquisition of the first information to the completion of the second information, the two-step CPU usage saves UE measurement resources. That is, as... Figure 8 In the process, the CPU time occupied by the terminal in acquiring and processing the first information is T1 / T2, and the CPU usage is X. The CPU time occupied by the terminal in acquiring and processing the second information is T3 (starting from the first symbol of X time units before PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2 and ending from the last symbol of PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2), and the CPU usage is Y. During the period from PUCCH#1 to the first symbol of X time units before PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2, CSI reporting does not occupy CPU. The values ​​of X and Y can be the same or different, depending on the interval between the first symbol of X time units before PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2 and PUSCH#1 / PUCCH#2. If the interval is long, or if there are measurement resources in between, the value of X can be equal to Y; otherwise, Y is less than X. The specific values ​​of X and Y are determined according to the measurement quantity or specified by the protocol. For example, when the measurement quantity is L1-RSRP, X = 1, Y = 1 or 0.5.
