[0039] For ease of understanding, the following describes some aspects of the embodiments of this application:

[0040] 1. Low power wake-up receiver (LP WUR).

[0041] The basic working principle of LP WUR is as follows: the receiver consists of a first module and a second module. The first module is the main communication module, used to receive and transmit communication data from the transmitter. The second module is a low-power module, used to receive the low-power wake-up signal (LP-WUS) and the low-power synchronization signal (LP-SS) sent by the transmitter. The LP-WUS wake-up signal is used to wake up the receiver's main communication module, and the LP-SS provides time reference information and other information for receiving the LP-WUS wake-up signal. For example, it is used for radio resource management (RRM) measurements of the serving cell, and can also provide wake-up link management, such as determining whether to activate or deactivate LP-WUR based on measurement results, or to shut down the main receiver (MR). The first module remains in a closed state when not woken up by the second module, and does not transmit or receive data. When downlink data arrives, the second module detects the wake-up signal sent by the transmitter, and if this wake-up signal contains information about the terminal, the second module triggers the first module to switch from the closed state to the active state, enabling data reception and transmission. The second module can be turned on continuously or intermittently. When the second module is turned on, it can receive low-power wake-up signals and low-power synchronization signals.

[0042] II. Low-power wake-up signal.

[0043] In this embodiment, the Low Power Wake-up Signal (LP-WUS) does not belong to the Downlink Control Information (DCI). For example, the LP-WUS is not DCI format 2-6 (which carries wake-up indication information). For example, the waveform or modulation method of the LP-WUS in this embodiment is: OOK-based LP-WUS with overlaid OFDM sequence(s) over OOK symbol. In other words, the low power signal in this embodiment refers to LP-WUS with an OFDM sequence overlaid on an OOK symbol or chip.

[0044] To reduce receiving activity in standby mode and effectively shut down the radio frequency (RF) and modem modules, thereby significantly reducing power consumption during communication reception, this can be achieved by introducing the aforementioned low-power receiver into the terminal's receiver module. In one embodiment, this near-zero power receiver does not require complex RF module signal detection (such as amplification, filtering, quantization, etc.) or modem signal processing; it relies solely on passive matched filtering and low-power signal processing.

[0045] In one embodiment, the low-power wake-up signal is typically a simple on-off keying (OOK) signal, allowing the receiver to detect the wake-up notification through simple energy detection and subsequent sequence detection and identification. In another embodiment, the low-power wake-up signal can be an FSK signal, an OFDM signal, or a hybrid signal of OFDM and OOK or FSK. For example, the wake-up signal could be an OOK overlaid OFDM signal. Furthermore, while the terminal activates the low-power receiver to receive the wake-up signal, the main receiver module can maintain a low power consumption level, thereby achieving power savings by receiving the wake-up signal.

[0046] The reception of low-power wake-up signals can be applied to terminals in RRC idle or RRC inactive states, as well as terminals in RRC connected states, thereby achieving terminal energy saving.

[0047] In addition to low-power wake-up signals, there are also low-power synchronization signals or low-power measurement signals. These can be collectively understood as low-power signals, the purpose of which is to save energy in the terminal.

[0048] The code point processing method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0049] Reference Figure 2 This application provides a code point processing method, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the code point processing method includes:

[0050] Step 201: The terminal obtains target information, which is used to indicate the configuration related to the low-power wake-up signal LP-WUS packet mapping;

[0051] Step 202: The terminal determines the code point associated with the terminal based on the LP-WUS packet mapping related configuration.

[0052] In this embodiment of the application, the terminal determining the code point associated with the terminal based on the LP-WUS packet mapping related configuration can be understood as: the terminal determining the code point associated with the LP-WUS packet where the terminal is located based on the LP-WUS packet mapping related configuration.

[0053] It should be noted that the terminal can be associated with one or more code points, depending on the code points supported by the terminal and the mapping type between LP-WUS packets.

[0054] Optionally, LP-WUS groups (also known as subgroups) are further groups for terminals associated with a paging occasion (PO).

[0055] In one embodiment, the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets may include: a one-to-one mapping type; a one-to-n mapping type, where n is an integer greater than 1; and a one-to-all mapping type. The network-side device may configure or agree upon at least one of the above mapping types for the terminal.

[0056] Optionally, the code points associated with the terminal may include one or more code points. In this way, the network-side device can use the bearer code points in LP-WUS to indicate the terminal waking up at least one LP-WUS packet, thereby improving the flexibility of terminal wake-up.

[0057] The code point processing method provided in this application includes: a terminal acquiring target information, the target information being used to indicate a low-power wake-up signal LP-WUS packet mapping related configuration; and the terminal determining the code point associated with the terminal based on the LP-WUS packet mapping related configuration. This application clarifies the method for determining the code point associated with a terminal, therefore, network-side devices can use code points carried in LP-WUS to indicate a terminal waking up at least one LP-WUS packet, thereby improving the flexibility of terminal wake-up.

[0058] Optionally, in some embodiments, the target information includes at least one of the following:

[0059] Configuration of the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets;

[0060] The number of code points required for the first indication information carried by LP-WUS or the code points corresponding to the first indication information carried by LP-WUS, wherein the first indication information is used to indicate information other than LP-WUS packet wake-up information;

[0061] The number of LP-WUS groups associated with a PO;

[0062] The number of paging opportunities (POs) indicated or associated with LP-WUS;

[0063] The mapping order of code points;

[0064] The total number of code points in the LP-WUS application or indication;

[0065] The information bit length L of LP-WUS;

[0066] The encoding method of information bits in LP-WUS.

[0067] In one embodiment, the target information can be obtained by the terminal through network-side configuration or protocol agreement. For example, some of the target information is configured by the network-side device, while other part of the target information is agreed upon by the protocol.

[0068] In this embodiment of the application, since the definition of the information used to determine the code points associated with the terminal is clarified, it is easier for the terminal and network-side equipment to better determine the code points associated with the terminal, thereby improving the performance of LP-WUS detection.

[0069] Optionally, in some embodiments, the configuration of the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets may include an indication of the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets. For example, the network-side device can directly configure the set of parameters n in a 1-to-n mapping type. For example, if parameter n is {1, 2, all}, it means there are three mapping types: 1-to-1 mapping, 1-to-2 mapping, and 1-to-all mapping. In one embodiment, the protocol specifies that the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets is a 1-to-1 mapping, or both 1-to-1 and 1-to-all mapping types. Therefore, the set of parameters n configured on the network side can be used to configure other mapping types besides n=1 and / or n=all, such as 1-to-2 mapping, 1-to-3 mapping, etc.

[0070] Optionally, for one-to-one mapping types, a default requirement is needed. One code point;

[0071] Optionally, for the 1-to-n mapping type, n is an integer greater than 1 and less than the total number of LP-WUS packets. The value of n can be configured by the network-side device. For example, if the set of n values ​​is {2, 4}, then the mapping types include 1-to-2 and 1-to-4. Optionally, for the 1-to-n mapping type, the network-side device also needs to configure the number of code points required for the 1-to-n mapping type. That is, the configuration of the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets also includes relevant parameter information of the mapping type (such as the number of code points required for the 1-to-n mapping type). For example, if n is {2, 4}, then the network-side device needs to configure the number of code points corresponding to each mapping type for each value of n. In one embodiment, if the network-side device does not configure the required number of code points, the default 1-to-n mapping type requires... or Each code point.

[0072] A special type of mapping combination has a number of possible combinations when n takes the value equal to In this case, a single code point can wake up all LP-WUS packets of a single PO. In this scenario, 1 pair Mapping type requires Each code point.

[0073] For the mapping type where the code point and LP-WUS packet are 1 to 1 for all LP-WUS packets, only one code point is needed.

[0074] Optionally, the aforementioned first indication information can be understood as indication information used to indicate functions other than the wake-up function. The code point corresponding to the first indication information carried by LP-WUS can be understood as a common codepoint. Other functions include, for example, system information update (SI modification), earthquake and tsunami warning system (ETWS) indication, or commercial mobile alert system (CMAS) indication. Specific functions are not limited.

[0075] Optionally, in some embodiments, the number of paging opportunities (POs) indicated or associated by the LP-WUS may include one or more, without further limitation.

[0076] Optionally, in some embodiments, the mapping order of the code points includes a first-level mapping order and a second-level mapping order, wherein the first-level mapping order includes either the first mapping order or the second mapping order;

[0077] The first mapping order is to first complete the mapping between all mapping types and code points within a PO, and then complete the mapping between mapping types and code points in subsequent POs according to the PO index order associated with LP-WUS; the second mapping order is to first complete the mapping between the previous mapping type and code points in all associated POs according to the PO index order associated with LP-WUS, and then perform the mapping between different mapping types and code points in sequence.

[0078] The second layer mapping order is the mapping order between different mapping types.

[0079] In this embodiment of the application, the second-layer mapping order can be implicitly determined by the set of parameters n configured by the network-side device. For example, if n = {all, 1, 2, 4}, then the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets includes 1-to-all mapping type, 1-to-1 mapping type, 1-to-2 mapping type and 1-to-4 mapping type. Then the second-layer mapping order is 1-to-all mapping type, 1-to-1 mapping type, 1-to-2 mapping type and 1-to-4 mapping type in sequence.

[0080] Optionally, the second-level mapping order can be understood as the next level of mapping order after the first-level mapping order. For example, firstly, the overall mapping between mapping types and code points is determined based on the first-level mapping order, and then the mapping order between different mapping types is determined based on the second-level mapping order, thereby realizing the mapping between all mapping types and code points. The first-level mapping order can treat the mapping type as a whole and map it sequentially according to the index order of the PO (first mapping order), or treat each mapping type as an independent unit and map each mapping type sequentially (second mapping order).

[0081] Optionally, the first-layer mapping order can be agreed upon by the protocol or configured by the network-side device.

[0082] Since the embodiments of this application clearly define the mapping order of code points, it is easier for the terminal and network-side equipment to better determine the code points associated with the terminal, thereby improving the performance of LP-WUS detection.

[0083] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the LP-WUS is configured to carry first indication information, and the code point corresponding to the first indication information carried by the LP-WUS is not specified, the mapping order of the code points further includes a third-level mapping order, which includes any one of the following:

[0084] First map the second indication information carried by LP-WUS, then map the first indication information;

[0085] First map the first indication information, then map the second indication information carried by LP-WUS;

[0086] Wherein, the second indication information is LP-WUS packet wake-up indication information used to indicate the wake-up of LP-WUS packets, and the first layer mapping order and the second layer mapping order are the mapping order associated with the second indication information in the third layer mapping order.

[0087] In this embodiment, if the LP-WUS carries other function indications (such as the first indication information) in addition to indicating grouping functions (e.g., the function corresponding to the LP-WUS group wake-up indication information), and the codepoints applied to these other function indications are not specified, i.e., they participate in the codepoint mapping process, then a third-level mapping order is required. Mapping the second indication information carried by the LP-WUS first, and then mapping the first indication information, can be understood or replaced as: mapping the grouping function indicated by the second indication information first, and then mapping the other functions indicated by the first indication information. Mapping the first indication information first, and then mapping the second indication information carried by the LP-WUS, can be understood or replaced as: mapping the other functions indicated by the first indication information first, and then mapping the grouping function indicated by the second indication information.

[0088] It should be noted that one pair of all mapping types is one pair of all LP-WUS group mapping types.

[0089] Optionally, in some embodiments, the 1-to-all mapping type does not participate in the code point mapping process, and the code points for the 1-to-all LP-WUS block mapping types are determined using any of the following:

[0090] The network-side device configuration or protocol defines a common codepoint for all LP-WUS packet mapping types; for example, the rule for the common codepoint value is defined as either an all-zero sequence or an all-one sequence.

[0091] The network-side device is configured with a specific LP-WUS listening opportunity for transmitting this common codepoint. In other words, the network side distinguishes the 1-to-all mapping type from other mapping types based on the configuration of the LP-WUS listening opportunity. In this case, the 1-to-all mapping type can be understood as not participating in the above codepoint mapping process.

[0092] It is understandable that as long as the network-side device configuration or protocol specifies the code points of the application corresponding to a certain mapping type, then there is no need to participate in the code point mapping process, because the code points have already been determined.

[0093] Optionally, in some embodiments, the total number of code points applied or indicated by LP-WUS can be understood or replaced with the total number of code points that LP-WUS can indicate, or it can be understood or replaced with the information bit length of LP-WUS, or the actual number of code points used for mapping. For example, if the total number of required code points is 200, then the required number of information bits in LP-WUS is 8 bits. Optionally, the total number of code points applied or indicated by LP-WUS is optional to configure. If not configured, it can be implicitly deduced.

[0094] Optionally, in some embodiments, the target information may also include the total number of bits K of LP-WUS, or the number of redundant or encoded bits of LP-WUS.

[0095] Optionally, in some embodiments, the candidate value of K can be a protocol convention or a network-side device configuration.

[0096] Optionally, K is used for LP-WUS of low-power receivers based on OOK waveforms. Optionally, in one case, the network-side device does not configure the bit length of LP-WUS for low-power receivers based on OFDM waveforms. In this case, the terminal defaults to setting the bit length of LP-WUS for low-power receivers based on OFDM waveforms to the minimum number of bits required to support the total number of codepoints needed to map all types, which is the information bit length of LP-WUS.

[0097] Optionally, the network-side equipment can configure different LP-WUS total bit lengths or LP-WUS information bit lengths for different LP-WUS receiver types. For example, the network-side equipment can configure the LP-WUS length as L1 for low-power receivers based on OOK waveforms and as L2 for low-power receivers based on OFDM waveforms.

[0098] Optionally, in some embodiments, when an LP-WUS or an LP-WUS occasion (LO) is associated with more than one paging frame (PF), the target information may further include: the offset between the LP-WUS occasion (LO) and its associated first PF. Optionally, the first PF associated with the LO is determined based on the following formula: Where A is the frame number of the system frame (SFN) corresponding to the paging frame, N represents the number of paging frames (PF) in the paging period, Ns represents the number of POs in one PF, and T is the DRX period of the disconnected UE (optionally, if a specific DRX period is configured for the UE, T takes the smallest DRX period value; otherwise, T is the default period value configured by SIB1).

[0099] Optionally, different L or K bit lengths can be configured for different LP-WUS waveforms or modulation schemes.

[0100] Optionally, in some embodiments, the encoding method of the information bits of the LP-WUS satisfies at least one of the following:

[0101] LP-WUS is used for on / off key control OOK waveforms or modulation methods;

[0102] Different encoding methods or different encoding lengths are used for different LP-WUS waveforms or modulation methods.

[0103] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the mapping type between the code points and LP-WUS packets is a one-to-one mapping type, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal in the one-to-one mapping type is determined based on at least one of the following:

[0104] The index i of the PO associated with the terminal in the PO associated with LP-WUS PO ;

[0105] The terminal-associated LP-WUS packet index i within a PO SGinPO ;

[0106] The index i of the LP-WUS packet associated with the terminal among all LP-WUS packets indicated by LP-WUS. SGinLP-WUS ;

[0107] The number of POs indicated or associated by LP-WUS

[0111] In this embodiment of the application, all LP-WUS packets indicated by the above-mentioned LP-WUS can be understood as all LP-WUS packets of all POs associated with LP-WUS.

[0113] In one embodiment, when the mapping type between code points and LP-WUS packets is a one-to-one mapping type, a UE will only associate one relative mapping order index value or one code point value.

[0114] Optionally, in some embodiments, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal is any of the following: i SGinLP -WUS .

[0115] In this embodiment of the application, for the first mapping order, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal is any one of the following: For the second mapping order, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal is i.

[0121] In this embodiment, LP-WUS packets based on the terminal identifier UE_ID and LP-WUS packets allocated by the core network equipment are two types of packets. Depending on the terminal's capabilities or the network configuration, the terminal may or may not support LP-WUS packets allocated by the core network (CN).

[0122] In one embodiment, the terminal supports and the network is configured with an LP-WUS packet type based on CN allocation. In this case, the terminal can obtain two relative mapping order index values ​​in the 1-to-1 mapping type between Codepoint and LP-WUS packet based on the LP-WUS packet index of the terminal identifier UE_ID and the LP-WUS packet index allocated by the core network equipment. Alternatively, the terminal will only obtain a relative mapping order index value in a 1-to-1 mapping type based on the LP-WUS packet index allocated by the core network. That is, in this case, the terminal ultimately determines the codepoint associated with the 1-to-1 mapping type based on the CN packet type.

[0123] Furthermore, if the terminal does not support the CN-based allocation packet type, the terminal will only be able to obtain an associated relative mapping order index value based on the UE ID packet in the Codepoint to LP-WUS packet 1-to-1 mapping type.

[0132] Optionally, in some embodiments, the i SGinPO Meet at least one of the following:

[0133] LP-WUS Packet Index Based on Terminal Identifier (UE_ID) or Where N represents the number of PFs in a paging cycle, Ns represents the number of POs in a PF, and Np is a specific value;

[0134] The terminal uses the LP-WUS packet index i allocated by the core network equipment. SGinPO LP-WUS packet index assigned to the terminal by the core network equipment; or, i SGinPO Add a first value to the LP-WUS packet index assigned to the terminal by the core network equipment.

[0135] Optionally, in some embodiments, i SGinLP-WUS Meet at least one of the following:

[0136] LP-WUS Packet Index Based on Terminal Identifier (UE_ID) Alternatively, LP-WUS packet index based on the terminal identifier UE_ID

[0137] The terminal uses the LP-WUS packet index i allocated by the core network equipment. SGinLP-WUS LP-WUS packet index assigned to the terminal by the core network equipment; or, i SGinLP-WUSAdd a second value to the LP-WUS packet index assigned to the terminal by the core network equipment. The second value is:

[0138] The terminal uses the LP-WUS packet index i allocated by the core network equipment. SGinLP-WUS Add a third value to the LP-WUS packet index assigned to the terminal by the core network equipment, the third value being:

[0139] Where N represents the number of paging frames (PFs) in a paging cycle, Ns represents the number of paging points (POs) in a PF, and Np is a specific value.

[0140] It should be noted that the above-mentioned Np can be obtained based on the network-side device configuration or the protocol agreement.

[0141] In some embodiments, Np can be a specific value determined by the terminal based on relevant parameters. Optionally, Np is related to paging early indication (PEI) parameters configured by the network-side device. For example, Np is determined based on the number of PEI packets configured by the network-side device for a PO. For example, Np is equal to the number of UE-ID-based PEI packets for a PO configured by the network-side device, or Np is equal to the number of PEI packets configured by the network-side device for a PO, or Np is a multiple of 2. For example, Np is the result of dividing the number of UE-ID-based PEI packets for a PO configured by the network-side device by 2, rounding up, and then multiplying by 2. For example, if the number of UE-ID-based PEI packets for a PO configured by the network-side device is 3, then Np = (3 ÷ 2) * 2 = 4.

[0142] In some embodiments, Np is fixed to a specific value by the protocol. For example, Np = 8.

[0143] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the embodiments mentioned above are used...

[0144] In some embodiments, Np corresponds to different specific values ​​for different terminals. For example, for terminals that do not support or are not configured to listen for PEI, if such terminals support and are configured to listen for LP-WUS, then the Np value for such terminals is 1. For terminals that support and are configured to listen for PEI, if such terminals also support and are configured to listen for LP-WUS, then the Np value for such terminals is determined by network-side configuration or protocol agreement. For example, the Np value for such terminals is 8.

[0145] It is understandable that Np can take specific values, but the number of such specific values ​​is not limited.

[0146] It should be understood that the role of Np is to separate the UE-ID-based LP-WUS packets of the terminal from the UE-ID-based PEI packets of the terminal. Thus, when the terminal supports and is configured to listen for both LP-WUS and PEI listening, the terminal can determine whether to listen for paging based on whether at least one of the associated LP-WUS packets and the associated PEI packets is indicated to be woken up.

[0147] For example, for the same paging time, the terminal listens to the LP-WUS and PEI associated with that paging time, such as Figure 2A As shown. The terminal listens for paging when both its LP-WUS and PEI packets are activated. Otherwise, the terminal does not listen for paging. Since the terminal's LP-WUS and PEI packets are independent, the terminal can determine whether it has been activated based on the respective LP-WUS and PEI instructions, thus reducing the probability of false activation.

[0148] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the mapping type between the code point and the LP-WUS packet is a 1-to-n mapping type, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packet associated with the terminal in the 1-to-n mapping type is determined based on the combination order index of the combination in which the LP-WUS packet associated with the terminal is located. The combination order index is determined based on the combination sorting method, wherein one combination consists of n LP-WUS packets, and n is an integer greater than 1.

[0149] In this embodiment of the application, one possible order of combination is: n LP-WUS grouping indices (i) within a combination. SGinPO or i SGinLP-WUS Sort the data from smallest to largest (or from largest to smallest), and then traverse the LP-WUS grouping index at the Xth position (where X is a positive integer less than or equal to n) in ascending order (or from largest to smallest) to determine the order of all combinations. This is illustrated in Table 1 below.

[0150] Table 1:

[0151]

[0152]

[0153] Optionally, in some embodiments, the relative mapping order index satisfies any of the following:

[0154] When the mapping order of the code points includes a first mapping order, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal in the 1-to-n mapping type is any one of the following: i PO and The product of the product and the combination order index of the LP-WUS group associated with the terminal; the combination order index of the LP-WUS group associated with the terminal and the product of the combination order index of the LP-WUS group associated with the terminal and ... The product plus i PO ;

[0155] When the mapping order of the code points includes a second mapping order, the relative mapping order index of the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal in the 1-to-n mapping type is the combination order index of the combination in which the LP-WUS packets associated with the terminal are located;

[0156] Among them, i PO This is the index of the PO associated with the terminal in the PO associated with LP-WUS. The number of POs indicated or associated by LP-WUS. The number of LP-WUS groups associated with a PO;

[0157] The first mapping order is to first complete the mapping between all mapping types and code points within a PO, and then complete the mapping between mapping types and code points in subsequent POs according to the PO index order associated with LP-WUS; the second mapping order is to first complete the mapping between the previous mapping type and code point in all associated POs according to the PO index order associated with LP-WUS, and then perform the mapping between different mapping types and code points in sequence.

[0158] Optionally, in some embodiments, the terminal determines the associated codepoint based on the LP-WUS packet mapping related configuration, including:

[0159] The terminal determines the code points associated with the terminal according to the mapping order of the code points and preset rules;

[0160] The LP-WUS packet mapping configuration includes the mapping order of the code points, and the preset rules include at least one of the following:

[0161] The code point associated with the terminal in the target mapping type is the sum of the relative mapping order index associated with the terminal in the target mapping type and the fourth value;

[0162] The code point associated with the terminal in the target mapping type is the sum of the relative mapping order index associated with the terminal in the target mapping type and the fourth value, and then the sum is multiplied by the fifth value.

[0163] Optionally, the fourth value is any one of the following:

[0164] The number of code points used in the mapping type that performs code point mapping before the target mapping type;

[0165] The number of code points used in the mapping type that performs code point mapping before the target mapping type plus the number of code points required for the first indication information;

[0166] The number of code points used in the mapping type that performs code point mapping before the target mapping type, plus the number of code points required for the first indication information, plus a specific constant.

[0167] In this embodiment of the application, multiplying the sum by the fifth value can be understood as multiplying the decimal value of the sum by the fifth value, and expanding it by means of proportional difference.

[0168] Optionally, the fifth value is Floor(2^L / C), where C is the total number of code points applied or indicated by LP-WUS, and L is the information bit length of LP-WUS.

[0169] Optionally, L varies depending on the LP-WUR type. Multiplying the code point associated with the terminal by the fifth value yields the corresponding LP-WUS codeword. It can be understood that if the fifth value is a multiple of 2, it's equivalent to padding the binary value of the codepoint with 0s at the end (lower bits), and the number of 0s is log2(A).

[0170] Optionally, in some embodiments, the encoding method of the information bits of LP-WUS includes at least one of the following:

[0171] The information bits of LP-WUS are padded with 0s or 1s at the end;

[0172] Add check bits or redundant bits to the information bits of LP-WUS;

[0173] The information bits of LP-WUS are RM encoded or Manchester encoded.

[0174] In this embodiment of the application, RM encoding is used to enhance error resistance by adding redundant information during the encoding process.

[0175] Optionally, LP-WUS code points or information bits can be encoded and then truncated to obtain a total LP-WUS bit length of a specific length.

[0176] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the encoding method of the information bits of LP-WUS may further include at least one of the following:

[0177] Add coded bits, without limiting the encoding method. In one embodiment, the information bits are encoded and then truncated to obtain an LP-WUS of a specific length.

[0178] Repeat the operation on the information bits. For example, if the binary bits of the information bit are 010, repeat it once to expand it into the codeword 010010.

[0179] Optionally, in some embodiments, different encoding methods are used for different LP-WUR receiver types (LP-WUR based on OOK waveform and LP-WUR based on OFDM waveform).

[0180] For example, different redundancy levels can be added for different LP-WUR types. In some cases, due to the excellent detection performance of OFDM LP-WUR, network-side equipment can configure a small amount of redundancy or no redundant bits at all for such receivers (LP-WUS only carries information bits). Furthermore, for OOK LP-WUR, due to the limitations of envelope detection and its relatively lower detection performance compared to OFDM receivers, network-side equipment can configure sufficient redundant bits for the information bits of the LP-WUS corresponding to such receivers to ensure the detection performance of LP-WUS based on OOK waveform low-power receivers.

[0181] Optionally, in some embodiments, if the terminal detects that the LP-WUS carries a code point associated with the terminal, the terminal listens to the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH).

[0182] Optionally, the terminal listening to the PDCCH can be understood or replaced as the terminal listening to the paging PDCCH.

[0183] It should be noted that the code points associated with the terminal may include one or more. The terminal needs to detect the multiple code points associated with the terminal. When the terminal detects that LP-WUS carries any of the code points associated with the terminal, the terminal will start PDCCH listening. Otherwise, the terminal will not start PDCCH listening.

[0184] To better understand this application, the following examples will be used to illustrate it in detail.

[0185] In some embodiments, the network-side device configures or agrees on the mapping type between a code point of an LP-WUS bearer and an LP-WUS packet as: a one-to-one mapping type or a one-to-all mapping type, and the network-side device supports and configures the UE_ID packet and CN packet method.

[0186] For example, network-side device configurations or protocol conventions support a one-to-one mapping between codepoints and LP-WUS packets. In addition, it supports one common codepoint to wake up all LP-WUS packets.

[0187] In one implementation, the network-side device is configured with the following LP-WUS parameters:

[0188] The number of LP-WUS packets for a PO is: In one embodiment, Group;

[0189] The number of LP-WUS packets based on UE-ID for a PO is: The group; this also implies the number of LP-WUS packets based on CN packets. Group;

[0190] The number of POs associated with one LP-WUS indicator is One PO.

[0191] The number of bits used for LP-WUS packets is L = 8.

[0192] Optionally, the protocol implicitly stipulates the first mapping order of codepoints as follows:

[0193] 1. First, perform a mapping of one common codepoint (meaning that the codepoint and LP-WUS group are a pair of all POs and all LP-WUS groups);

[0194] 2. Then, within a PO, first map the CN-based packet type (the mapping type corresponding to the LP-WUS packet allocated by the CN), and then map the UE_ID-based packet type (the mapping type corresponding to the LP-WUS packet determined by the UE_ID).

[0195] It is understandable that the total number of codepoints required for a one-to-one mapping type is equal to... One common codepoint is needed to map all LP-WUS packets of all POs. Therefore, the total number of LP-WUS packets that one LP-WUS can indicate, which corresponds to the total number of codepoints C, is 64 + 1 = 65.

[0196] In the Codepoint and LP-WUS grouping 1-to-1 mapping type, the terminal confirms its relative mapping order index value.

[0197] The LP-WUS packet index i assigned to the terminal by the core network equipment within the PO associated with the terminal. SGinPO Instructed by CN;

[0198] For the UE_ID-based grouped index within the terminal PO:

[0199] For the PO associated with the UE in LP-WUS Indexes for the 4 POs:

[0200] Because a common codepoint is mapped before the one-to-one mapping type, the codepoint associated with the terminal is...

[0201] In one scenario, if the terminal supports CN-based packet types, it can obtain two mapping order index values ​​in the 1-to-1 mapping type between Codepoint and LP-WUS packets, based on both the UE_ID packet (the LP_WUS packet determined by the UE_ID) and the CN packet (the LP_WUS packet allocated by the CN). However, in another scenario, the terminal will only determine whether to be woken up by LP-WUS based on the wake-up indication based on the CN packet (i.e., the terminal checks the LP-WUS codepoint ultimately corresponding to its own CN packet). In other words, the terminal ultimately decides whether to be woken up by LP-WUS based on the CN packet. In another scenario, if the terminal does not support CN packets, it will obtain an associated relative mapping order index value in the 1-to-1 mapping type between Codepoint and LP-WUS packets based on the UE_ID packet.

[0202] In one embodiment, the terminal determines the codepoint value of the L information bit length of the LP-WUS detected by the terminal according to the following method:

[0203] The terminal performs the following operation to obtain the LP-WUS codepoint associated with the terminal:

[0204] Codepoint = relative codepoint * floor(2^L / C).

[0205] For example, the PO index i of terminal 1 PO =3, the terminal CN group index i indicated by CN SGinPO =7, according to If terminal 1 calculates a relative codepoint value of 56 based on the CN group, then the corresponding 8-bit codepoint is: 56 * floor(2^8 / 65) = 2^24, which is 11100000 in binary. For example, if the terminal calculates a relative codepoint value of 5, then the corresponding 8-bit codepoint is: 5 * floor(2^8 / 65) = 20, which is 00010100 in binary. The 8-bit common codeword that terminal 1 needs to monitor is: 00000000.

[0206] The advantage of the above formula mapping is that it can map the relative codepoints that originally only require log2(65) = 7 bits to 8 bits at equal intervals.

[0207] Therefore, for terminal 1, it is necessary to compare the detected LP-WUS content with its two associated codepoints: {00000000, 00010100}, in order to determine whether to wake up its own LP-WUS.

[0208] In the above embodiments, one LP-WUS can carry a total of 65 LP-WUS packet codepoints. Another approach is that the network-side device can assign a dedicated LP-WUS listening time (LP-WUS MO) to each common codepoint. The terminal only needs to detect the common codepoint on this dedicated common LP-WUS MO. The remaining 64 codepoints can be carried by additional LP-WUS MOs. That is, the total number of codepoints corresponding to a common codepoint and other mapping types and packet types are carried by different LP-WUS systems. In this case, for an LP-WUS system carrying a non-common codepoint, the common codepoint does not participate in the mapping process; therefore, the codepoint associated with the terminal is... Then, based on this value, the terminal determines its corresponding L-bit length codepoint and performs LP-WUS detection on the aforementioned additional LP-WUS MO. If the terminal detects its associated L-bit length codepoint on the aforementioned additional LP-WUS MO, the terminal starts listening to the associated PO. Otherwise, the terminal does not listen to the associated PO.

[0209] In another embodiment, if LP-WUS carries other function indications besides indicating packet functions, the network-side device further configures the other function indications carried by LP-WUS to apply a specified common codepoint. Then, this common codepoint does not participate in the aforementioned codepoint mapping process.

[0210] In one embodiment, the network-side device is configured with three common codepoints, including one common codepoint indicating the wake-up of all LP-WUS packets, one common codepoint indicating system information updates, and one common codepoint indicating system early warning information such as earthquakes and tsunamis.

[0211] In some embodiments, the protocol implicitly stipulates a second mapping order for Codepoints:

[0212] 1. First, perform a mapping of one common codepoint (meaning that the codepoint and LP-WUS group are a pair of all POs and all LP-WUS groups);

[0213] 2. Then first map the CN-based packet type of all POs, and then map the UE-ID-based packet type of all POs.

[0214] Compared to the first mapping order described above, when using the second mapping order, the following remains unchanged: the total number of LP-WUS packets that one LP-WUS can indicate, which corresponds to the total number of codepoints, is still C = 64 + 1 = 65. The change lies in the terminal's own relative mapping order index value i in the one-to-one mapping type between codepoints and LP-WUS packets. SGinLP-WUS .

[0215] When the terminal supports CN packets, the relative mapping order index of the terminal CN packets in all CN packets of all POs associated with LP-WUS is determined using the following method:

[0216] The grouping index range indicated by CN is Understandably, the CN does not distinguish between the PO (Placement Object) where the terminal is located; it only notifies the terminal of the CN packet index based on the number of CN packets within a PO. To obtain this CN packet index, the terminal needs to calculate its relative CN packet mapping order index within the CN packet type as follows:

[0217] i SGinLP-WUS Add the CN instruction to the terminal's packet index

[0218] For example, the CN packet index indicated for the terminal is 5, and the i associated with the terminal is... PO =3. The relative mapping order index of the terminal in the CN packet type is: 5 + 3 * 8 = 29.

[0219] The advantage of the CN indication mentioned above is that the CN can indicate only the partial information that determines the relative mapping order index of the CN packet of the terminal, which can save bit overhead.

[0220] The relative mapping order index of the UE_ID packet for the terminal in all UE_ID-based packets of all POs associated with LP-WUS is determined by the following formula:

[0221] in,

[0222] If the terminal supports CN packets, one possibility is that the terminal will only calculate the corresponding relative mapping order index based on the CN packet type, and will not calculate the relative mapping order index based on the UE-ID packet. Another possibility is that the terminal can obtain two relative index values, but the terminal will not apply the relative mapping order index based on the UE-ID packet, but will only apply the relative mapping order index obtained based on the CN packet. If the terminal does not support CN packets, then the terminal will only obtain its own relative mapping order index based on the UE-ID packet.

[0223] Because a common codepoint is mapped before the one-to-one mapping type, the codepoint associated with the terminal is i. SGinLP-WUS +1.

[0224] In another approach, the network can assign a dedicated LP-WUS MO to each common codepoint. The terminal only needs to detect one common codepoint on this dedicated LP-WUS MO. The remaining 64 codepoints can then be carried by additional LP-WUS MOs. In this case, since one common codepoint does not participate in the mapping process, the codepoint associated with the terminal is i. SGinLP-WUS Then, based on this value, the terminal determines its corresponding L-bit length codeword and performs LP-WUS detection on the additional LP-WUS MO. If the terminal detects its associated L-bit length codeword on the additional LP-WUS MO, the terminal starts listening to the associated PO. Otherwise, the terminal does not listen to the associated PO.

[0225] In some embodiments, the network-side device configuration or protocol stipulates three mapping types from codepoints to LP-WUS packets for an LP-WUS bearer: one-to-one mapping, one-to-four mapping, and one-to-all mapping.

[0226] The network-side device is configured with the following information: there are 6 LP-WUS packets in one PO; one LP-WUS is associated with 8 POs; in the 1-to-n mapping type of codepoint to LP-WUS packet, the set of parameters n and the mapping order are {all,1,4}; the bit length of LP-WUS is L=8 bits.

[0227] If the approach is to first map different mapping types within a PO and then map different POs, the terminal's own grouping index is i. SGinPO If the method involves first mapping all POs to the same mapping type, and then mapping to different mapping types, the terminal's own grouping index is i. SGinLP-WUS .

[0228] The following approach first maps different mapping types within a PO, then maps different POs, with the terminal grouping index being i. SGinPO For example.

[0229] For 1-to-1 and 1-to-all mapping types, you can refer to Example 1 to determine the relative order index of the terminal associated in different mapping types.

[0230] For the 1-to-4 mapping type, the terminal determines the relative mapping order index in the following way:

[0231] First, a combination refers to a combination consisting of four LP-WUS packets. For example, the protocol specifies the indexes (i) of n LP-WUS packets within the combination of LP-WUS packets. SGinPO or i SGinLP-WUSThe order of all combinations is determined by sorting them from smallest to largest, and then using the LP-WUS index in ascending order at each position within each combination. For example, in a 1-to-4 mapping type, one combination x is {0,3,2,5}, and another combination y is {0,5,4,2}. We first sort the four LP-WUS group indices within the combination from smallest to largest, resulting in {0-2-3-5} and {0-2-4-5}. Comparing the LP-WUS indices at the same position, the two LP-WUS group indices in the first position are both 0, so they are moved to the next position. The two group indices in the next position are both 2, so they are moved to the next position. One group index is 3, and the other is 4. Therefore, combination x is mapped to codepoints before combination y. In this way, in a 1-to-n mapping type, the mapping order of codepoints and various combinations can be determined as shown in Table 2 below. The terminal can obtain its target combination order index value in a 1-to-n grouping type of codepoint and LP-WUS grouping.

[0232] For example, the terminal's i SGinPO =3, i PO =7, then the corresponding associated target combination index value is {0,3,4,6,7,9,10,11,13,14}. The relative order index value of the terminal in the 1-to-4 mapping type between codepoint and LP-WUS is determined by the formula: B is the target combination order mapping index value. Therefore, the codepoint for the terminal in a 1-to-4 mapping type is:

[0233] The codepoint value obtained by the terminal based on the UE_ID group is: 7*6+3+1=45.

[0234] The terminal needs to listen to a common codepoint with an index value of 0.
