[0020] 1 is a block diagram of a wireless communication system to which the embodiment of the present application can be applied. The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network side device 12.

[0021] Here, the terminal 11 may be called a terminal device or a user terminal (User Equipment, UE), and the terminal 11 may be a terminal side device such as a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer (or called a notebook computer), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a palmtop computer, a netbook, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a mobile Internet device (MID), a wearable device, or a vehicle user equipment (VUE), a pedestrian user equipment (PUE), etc., and the wearable device includes a bracelet, an earphone, glasses, etc. It should be noted that the specific type of the terminal 11 in the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

Here, the base station may be called a Node B, an evolved Node B, an access point, a base transceiver station (BTS), a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a basic service set (BSS), an extended service set (ESS), a B node, an evolved B node (eNB), a home B node, a home evolved B node, a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point, a wireless fidelity (WiFi) node, a transmission point (TRP), or some other suitable term in the art, and the base station is not limited to a specific technical term as long as the same technical effect is achieved.

[0023] For ease of understanding, the following describes some aspects of the present invention.

[0024] 1. Multi-antenna.

[0025] Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technology uses large-scale antenna arrays to significantly improve system frequency band utilization efficiency and support more access users, so research organizations consider Massive MIMO technology to be one of the most promising physical layer technologies for next-generation mobile communication systems.

[0026] When a full digital array is adopted for the Massive MIMO technology, it is possible to realize maximized spatial resolution and optimized multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) performance. However, such a structure requires a large number of analog-to-digital (AD) / digital-to-analog (DA) conversion devices and a large number of complete radio frequency-baseband processing channels, which imposes a large burden on both equipment cost and baseband processing complexity.

[0027] In order to avoid the above implementation cost and equipment complexity, digital-analog beamforming technology has been born accordingly, that is, in addition to the traditional digital field beamforming, a beamforming-analog beamforming (or analog forming) is added to the radio frequency signal near the front end based on the antenna system. Analog forming can realize rough matching between the transmission signal and the channel by a relatively simple method. Since the dimension of the equivalent channel formed after analog forming is smaller than the actual number of antennas, the AD / DA conversion device required later, the number of digital channels and the complexity of the corresponding baseband processing can all be greatly reduced. The remaining interference of the analog forming part can be processed again in the digital field, thereby ensuring the quality of MU-MIMO transmission. Compared to full digital forming, digital-analog mixed beamforming is a trade-off between performance and complexity, and has a relatively high practical prospect in systems with a wide bandwidth of high frequency bands or a very large number of antennas.

[0028] Second, high frequency band.

[0029] High-frequency bands have relatively abundant idle frequency resources and can provide greater throughput for data transmission. Compared with low-frequency bands, the wavelength of high-frequency signals is shorter, and more antenna array elements can be placed on the same size antenna panel and beamforming technology can be used to form beams with stronger directionality and narrower lobes. Therefore, the combination of large-scale antennas and high-frequency communication is also one of the future trends.

[0030] Third, beam measurement and reporting.

[0031] Analog beamforming is launched at the full bandwidth, and each polarization array element on each radio frequency antenna array panel can only transmit analog beams in a time division multiplexed manner. The analog beamforming weight value is realized by adjusting the parameters of the equipment such as the radio frequency front-end phase shifter.

[0032] Generally, a polling method is adopted to train the analog beamforming vector, that is, the array elements in each polarization direction of each antenna panel transmit training signals (i.e., candidate beamforming vectors) at a predetermined time in a sequential manner in a time division multiplexing manner, and the terminal feeds back a beam report after measurement so that the network side adopts the training signal to realize the emission of analog beams when transmitting the next service. The contents of the beam report generally include some emission beam identifiers to be optimized and the measured reception power of each emission beam.

[0033] When performing beam measurement, the network configures a reference signal resource set (RS resource set), where at least one reference signal resource (RS resource) is included, such as a synchronization signal / physical broadcast channel block (SS / PBCH block, SSB) resource or a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource. The UE measures the Layer 1 - Reference Signal Received Power (L1-RSRP) / Layer 1 -Signal-to-Noise and Interference Ratio (L1-SINR) of each RS resource, and reports at least one optimized measurement result to the network, where the report content includes a synchronization signal block resource indicator (SSB Resource Indicator, SSBRI) or a channel state information reference signal resource indicator (CSI-RS Resource Indicator, CRI), and the corresponding L1-RSRP / L1-SINR. The report content reflects at least one optimized beam and its quality so that the network determines beam information for transmitting a channel or signal to the UE.

[0034] Fourth, Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement mechanism.

[0035] In RRM measurement, the UE measures the reference signals of neighboring cells and decides whether to perform cell switching based on the results. In order to avoid short-term fluctuations in the measurement results, a series of uniformly distributed measurement samples are generally averaged within a measurement period, which may be called higher layer (e.g. layer 3: L3) measurement.

[0036] When measuring the reference signal SSB of a neighboring cell, it is necessary to set a measured window to measure the timing of the SSB, i.e., to set the SSB Measurement Timing Configurations (SMTC) to avoid unnecessary measurements and reduce the measured energy loss. The period of the SMTC window may be set as, for example, 5 / 10 / 20 / 40 / 80 / 160 milliseconds (ms) as with the SSB, and the measured time interval may be set as 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 ms, which is related to the number of SSBs transmitted. The UE measures the SSB according to the SMTC configuration information, and then reports the measurement result to the gNB or performs cell selection.

[0037] 5. Multi-Transmission and Receiving Point (TRP).

[0038] In a multi-TRP scenario, when multiple TRPs belong to different cells, there are different timing information for different TRPs, for example, there are different transmission times between different TRPs and the UE due to different routes between the TRPs and the UE, and there is a difference in the time that the data of the TRPs arrive at the UE.

[0039] It should be noted that in the examples of the present application, The mentioned beam information may be referred to as spatial relation information, spatial domain transmission filter information, spatial filter information, Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) status information, Quasi co-location (QCL) information, or QCL parameters. Downlink beam information may generally be represented using TCI status information or QCL information. Uplink beam information may generally be represented using spatial relation information.

[0040] The referenced antenna panels may be referred to as antenna groups, antenna port groups, antenna sets, antenna port sets, beam sets, beam subsets, antenna arrays, antenna port arrays, antenna sub-arrays, antenna port sub-arrays, logical entities, entities, or antenna entities, etc.

[0041] The panel identifier may be an antenna panel identifier, a reference signal resource identifier, a reference signal resource set identifier, a TCI state identifier, a QCL information identifier, a spatial relationship identifier, etc.

[0042] The object referred to may be a cell, a physical cell or a TRP.

[0043] The mentioned serving object of the terminal may be referred to as the terminal's own object, the terminal's current object, the terminal's current serving object, the terminal's primary object, etc. Taking the object as an example of a cell, the serving cell of the terminal may be referred to as the terminal's own cell, the terminal's current cell, the terminal's current serving cell, the terminal's primary cell, etc.

[0044] The targets other than the service target of the mentioned terminal may be called neighboring targets of the terminal, non-own targets of the terminal, non-current targets of the terminal, non-current service targets of the terminal, secondary targets of the terminal, etc. For example, if the target is a TRP, the TRP other than the service TRP of the terminal may be called neighboring TRP of the terminal, non-service TRP of the terminal, non-own TRP of the terminal, non-current TRP of the terminal, non-current service TRP of the terminal, secondary TRP of the terminal, etc.

[0045] The identifier may be called an index, for example.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present application, an object may correspond to at least one timing information, where timing information corresponding to an object may be understood as timing information obtained by measuring a reference signal of this object.

[0047] When implemented, the terminal can use at least one of the measurement objects among a beam and an antenna panel, so that the number of timing information corresponding to one object may be related to at least one of the number of beams R used by the terminal when measuring the object and the number of antenna panels W used by the terminal when measuring the object, where R and W are both positive integers. Optionally, the number of timing information corresponding to one object is less than or equal to a target value, and the target value is equal to the product of R and W.

[0048] For example, suppose that the terminal measures target 1 using beam 1 via antenna panel 1 and obtains timing information a, measures target 1 using beam 2 via antenna panel 1 and obtains timing information b, measures target 1 using beam 3 via antenna panel 2 and obtains timing information c, and measures target 1 using beam 4 via antenna panel 2 and obtains timing information d. Then, in this case, the number of timing information corresponding to target 1 is equal to the target value, which are timing information a, timing information b, timing information c and timing information d, respectively.

[0049] Suppose the terminal measures the target 1 using beam 1 via antenna panel 1 to obtain timing information a, and measures the target 1 using beam 3 via antenna panel 2 to obtain timing information c. Then, in this case, the number of timing information corresponding to the target 1 is smaller than the target value, which is the timing information a and the timing information c, respectively.

[0050] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, one beam may correspond to at least one timing information. The timing information corresponding to a beam may be understood as timing information obtained by measuring using this beam. For example, when a first beam is adopted to measure and obtain timing information 1 and timing information 2, the timing information corresponding to the first beam includes timing information 1 and timing information 2.

[0051] One antenna panel may correspond to at least one timing information. The timing information corresponding to an antenna panel may be understood as timing information obtained by measuring using this antenna panel (which may be understood as a beam on this antenna panel). For example, when a first antenna panel is employed to measure and obtain timing information 3 and timing information 4, the timing information corresponding to the first antenna panel includes timing information 3 and timing information 4.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2, which is a flowchart of an information reporting method according to an embodiment of the present application. The information reporting method of the embodiment of the present application may be performed by a terminal.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 2, the information reporting method may include the following steps.

[0054] Step 201, reporting target information to a network side device, the target information including first information, the first information corresponding to M timing information of P targets.

[0055] Here, the object is a cell, a physical cell or a transmission / reception point TRP, M is a positive integer, and P is a positive integer less than or equal to M.

[0056] When specifically realized, the first information corresponds to the M timing information of the P objects, which may be understood as the first information including the M timing information of the P objects, or the first information being generated based on the M timing information of the P objects. When the first information is generated based on the M timing information of the P objects, the specific content included in the first information is determined based on the M timing information of the P objects.

[0057] In an embodiment of the present application, for each object among the P objects, the M pieces of timing information include at least one piece of timing information corresponding to the object. Optionally, the M pieces of timing information of the P objects include: When P is equal to M, each object among the P objects corresponds to one timing information; When P is smaller than M, at least one of the P targets corresponds to at least two timing information, and the at least two timing information satisfy one of the following: at least two beams; and at least one of at least two antenna panels is measured.

[0058] The specific explanation is as follows.

[0059] If P is equal to M, then for each object among the P objects, the M pieces of timing information include only one timing information corresponding to this object.

[0060] When P is smaller than M, the M pieces of timing information may include at least two pieces of timing information corresponding to the same object among the P objects.

[0061] However, it should be noted that for each target among the P targets, the timing information corresponding to the target included in the M timing information may be all or a part of the timing information corresponding to the target. That is, when the terminal decides to report the timing information corresponding to the P targets, it can select to report all the timing information corresponding to each target among the P targets, or to report a part of the timing information corresponding to each target among the P targets.

[0062] For example, the number of timing information corresponding to the object 1 includes timing information a, timing information b, timing information c, and timing information d. When the terminal decides to report the timing information corresponding to the object 1, in one alternative embodiment, the terminal may report all the timing information corresponding to the object 1, i.e., report timing information a, timing information b, timing information c, and timing information d, and this alternative embodiment may correspond to the case where the above P is smaller than M; in another alternative embodiment, the terminal may report only a part of the timing information corresponding to the object 1, for example, report one of the timing information a, timing information b, timing information c, and timing information d, and this alternative embodiment may correspond to the case where the above P is equal to M.

[0063] In an embodiment of the present application, optionally, the timing information corresponding to any one of the objects is: The length of time that information is occupied until it is transmitted from the transmitting end to the receiving end, The receiving end receives a target time domain resource of the information transmitted by the transmitting end; The receiving end receives a target time domain resource number of the information transmitted by the transmitting end; The receiving end receives a boundary on which a target time domain resource of information transmitted by the transmitting end is located; The target TA proposed by the terminal may be embodied as any one of, but is not limited to, Here, the transmitting end is one of the object and the terminal, and the receiving end is the other of the object and the terminal, the occupied time length may be expressed using time units such as seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, etc., or may be expressed using at least one of number of frames, number of slots, number of symbols, number of samples, etc., and the target time domain resource may be expressed using at least one of frame, slot, symbol, sample, etc.

[0064] In the information reporting method of the embodiment of the present application, a terminal reports target information to a network side device, the target information includes first information, and the first information corresponds to M timing information of P objects, where the object is a cell, a physical cell or a transmission / reception point TRP, M is a positive integer, and P is a positive integer less than or equal to M. In this way, when the network side device receives the target information, it can accurately obtain the difference in timing information of the P objects, and further schedule the transmission of the terminal according to the difference in timing information of the P objects to avoid measurement or data interference between each object, thereby improving system performance.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal may report the target information at the instruction of a network side device, or may conditionally report the target information voluntarily, and specifically, may be determined according to an actual case, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0066] A scenario in which the terminal conditionally reports the target information will now be described.

[0067] In this scenario, optionally, the step of reporting the target information to the network side device includes: reporting target information to a network side device when a first condition is met; Here, the first condition is satisfied if: The network side device configures at least two TRP identifier information; The network side device configures or activates at least two cells or physical cells; a difference between the timing information of at least two objects is greater than or equal to a first value; configuring or triggering said network side device to carry timing information of interest in Layer 1 measurement reports; The network side device may include, but is not limited to, at least one of: configuring uplink resources for reporting the target timing information;

[0068] The specific explanation is as follows.

[0069] Optionally, when the first condition is satisfied, the first condition is satisfied when the network side device configures at least two TRP identifier information. The at least two TRP identifier information correspond to at least two cell identifiers (cell indexes); The at least two pieces of TRP identifier information may further include any one of: and the at least two pieces of TRP identifier information correspond to at least two physical cell identifiers (PCIs).

[0070] In a specific implementation, the correspondence between the at least two TRP identifier information and the at least two cell identifiers (or the at least two PCIs) may be a one-to-one correspondence or a many-to-one correspondence. Each TRP identifier information among the at least two TRP identifier information may correspond to a different cell identifier (or PCI), or there may be two or more TRP identifier information among the at least two TRP identifier information that can correspond to the same cell identifier (or PCI).

[0071] Optionally, when the satisfaction of the first condition includes that a difference between the timing information of at least two targets is equal to or greater than a first value, whether the difference between the timing information of the at least two targets is equal to or greater than a first value may be determined based on a measurement result of the terminal for the at least two targets of reference signals; Here, the at least two reference signals of interest are measured using at least one of at least two antenna panels and at least two beams.

[0072] In a specific implementation, the terminal can determine whether a difference between timing information of the at least two targets is equal to or greater than a first value based on measurement results for the at least two target reference signals. If the difference between timing information of the at least two targets is equal to or greater than a first value, the terminal can report the target information to a network side device. The first value can be equal to or greater than 0.

[0073] The correspondence between the at least two target reference signals and the at least two antenna panels (or the at least two beams) may be a one-to-one correspondence or a one-to-many correspondence. Among the at least two target reference signals, there may be a reference signal that is measured using only one antenna panel (or beam), or there may be a reference signal that is measured using two or more antenna panels (or beams).

[0074] When the first condition is satisfied, the network side device configures or triggers the network side device to carry the target timing information in a Layer 1 measurement report, the Layer 1 (L1) measurement report may be, but is not limited to, an L1-RSRP report or an L1-SINR report.

[0075] In the embodiment of the present application, as can be seen from the above content, the content contained in the first information may be directly the M timing information of the P objects, or may be information determined based on the M timing information of the P objects, and a specific description is given as follows:

[0076] Optionally, the first information is: The M pieces of timing information; Absolute values ​​of the M pieces of timing information; M H offset values ​​(also called relative values), M H offset values ​​and first reference timing information; Here, the MH offset values ​​include offset values ​​for the second reference timing information of each timing information among the MH timing information, the MH timing information includes timing information other than the first reference timing information among the M timing information, the second reference timing information is determined based on the first reference timing information, the first reference timing information is H pieces of timing information of pre-set objects, the pre-set objects are configured by a network side device, agreed upon by a protocol, or determined by the terminal, and H is a positive integer.

[0077] The specific explanation is as follows.

[0078] When the pre-configured object is configured by a network side device, agreed upon by a protocol, or determined by the terminal, the first information may include the MH offset values ​​and the first reference timing information; when the pre-configured object is configured by a network side device or agreed upon by a protocol, the first information may not carry the first reference timing information but may only carry the MH offset values, thereby saving signaling overhead.

[0079] In a specific implementation, the pre-set target may be, but is not limited to, a service target of the terminal.

[0080] The second reference timing information may be any one or more of the H timing information, or may be calculated based on the H timing information. For example, the second reference timing information may be a weighted average value or an arithmetic average value of some or all of the H timing information. Specifically, the second reference timing information may be determined according to actual cases, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0081] Alternatively, when H is greater than 1, the terminal may indicate the second reference timing information in an explicit or implicit manner. For example, when the first information includes the first reference timing information and the second reference timing information is any one of the H pieces of timing information, the terminal may set the first or last timing information among the H pieces of timing information as the second reference timing information.

[0082] For ease of understanding, an example will be given below for explanation.

[0083] The P targets include target 1 and target 2, and the M pieces of timing information include timing information a, timing information b, timing information c, and timing information d corresponding to target 1, and timing information e, timing information f, timing information g, and timing information h corresponding to target 2.

[0084] At the same time, it is assumed that the preset target is target 1 and the second reference timing information is timing information a. The offset value of timing information e for timing information a is denoted as offset1, the offset value of timing information f for timing information a is denoted as offset2, the offset value of timing information g for timing information a is denoted as offset3, and the offset value of timing information h for timing information a is denoted as offset4.

[0085] Then, the first information may include at least offset 1, offset 2, offset 3, and offset 4. Furthermore, the first information may further include timing information a, timing information b, timing information c, and timing information d.

[0086] Optionally, the first information may be represented by a quantized value.

[0087] When specifically implemented, the units of the quantized value may be at least one of frames, slots, symbols, samples, seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and the like.

[0088] The bit length of the quantization value may be determined by a protocol. For example, if the first information includes offset1, offset2, offset3, and offset4, and offset1 and offset3 are one symbol and offset2 and offset4 are two symbols, the bit length of the quantization value may be two bits. For example, if 01 represents one symbol and 10 represents two symbols, the quantization value of offset1 and offset3 may be 01, and the quantization value of offset2 and offset4 may be 10.

[0089] Furthermore, when the first information includes the M H offset values, the first information is the M H offset values ​​correspond to M H quantized values; Here, the symbol of a first quantization value is used to represent the relationship between timing information corresponding to the first quantization value and the second reference timing information, and the first quantization value is any one of the MH quantization values.

[0090] In this optional embodiment, the quantized value may have a symbol, and the symbol of the quantized value may be used to represent a relationship between timing information corresponding to this quantized value and the second reference timing information.

[0091] In a specific implementation, the relationship between the timing information corresponding to the quantization value and the second reference timing information is: The timing information corresponding to the quantized value precedes the second reference timing information; The timing information corresponding to the quantized value is after the second reference timing information; The timing information corresponding to the quantized value may be equal to the second reference timing information.

[0092] Alternatively, when the first quantization value is greater than 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is before the second reference timing information, when the first quantization value is less than 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is after the second reference timing information, or when the first quantization value is greater than 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is after the second reference timing information, when the first quantization value is less than 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is before the second reference timing information, specifically, may be determined according to actual cases, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto. Also, when the first quantization value is equal to 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is equal to the second reference timing information.

[0093] For ease of understanding, the following description will be given taking an example in which the quantized values ​​of offset1 and offset3 are 01, and the quantized values ​​of offset2 and offset4 are 10.

[0094] Assume that the timing information e and the timing information f both precede the timing information a, and the timing information g and the timing information h both follow the timing information a.

[0095] At the same time, if the first quantization value is greater than 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is before the second reference timing information, and if the first quantization value is less than 0, the timing information corresponding to the first quantization value is after the second reference timing information.

[0096] Then, the quantization value corresponding to offset1 (the offset value of timing information e for timing information a) is +01, the quantization value corresponding to offset2 (the offset value of timing information f for timing information a) is +10, the quantization value corresponding to offset3 (the offset value of timing information g for timing information a) is -01, and the quantization value corresponding to offset4 (the offset value of timing information h for timing information a) is -10.

[0097] In an embodiment of the present application, when there is a target object corresponding to at least two timing information among the P objects, for each target object, in a first reporting manner, the terminal can report two or more timing information corresponding to the target object, and in a second reporting manner, the terminal can report only one object information corresponding to the target object. The specific reporting manner to be adopted may be determined according to actual circumstances, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0098] In some embodiments, optionally, when the P objects include target objects corresponding to L pieces of timing information, where L is an integer greater than 1, the M pieces of timing information include J pieces of timing information corresponding to the target objects, where J is a positive integer less than or equal to L, and the M pieces of timing information include J pieces of timing information corresponding to the target objects, where J is determined based on the capability of the terminal.

[0099] In other words, whether to adopt the first reporting method or the second reporting method may be determined based on the capabilities of the terminal.

[0100] Alternatively, J can take the value When the terminal supports multiple activated antenna panels or beam transmissions, and supports at least two timing information processing capabilities or at least two TAs, J is greater than 1 and less than or equal to L; If the terminal supports only a single activated antenna panel, a single activated beam transmission, a single timing information processing capability, or a single TA, J=1.

[0101] That is, when the terminal supports multiple activated antenna panels or beam transmissions, and supports at least two timing information processing capabilities or at least two TAs, the first reporting manner can be adopted, that is, two or more timing information can be reported for each target object; If the terminal only supports a single activated antenna panel, a single activated beam transmission, a single timing information processing capability, or a single TA, a second reporting manner can be adopted, i.e., reporting only one timing information for each target object.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, the network side device can configure which target timing information the terminal reports, and the terminal can determine which target timing information the terminal reports based on the measurement result, that is, which target timing information the terminal reports may be configured by the network side device or determined by the terminal.

[0103] For convenience of description, hereinafter, all objects configured by the network side or determined by the terminal are denoted as K objects, where K is an integer equal to or greater than P.

[0104] Optionally, the P objects may include some or all of the K objects; Here, the K objects are configured by a network side device or determined by the terminal, and K is an integer equal to or greater than P.

[0105] That is, the terminal may report at least one timing information corresponding to each target among all targets configured by the network side or determined by the terminal, or may report only at least one timing information corresponding to each target among a portion of all targets configured by the network side or determined by the terminal.

[0106] Furthermore, when the P objects include some objects among the K objects, any one of the P objects is the absolute value of the timing information being greater than or equal to a second value; and an offset value of the timing information with respect to the second reference timing information is equal to or greater than a third value; Here, the second reference timing information is determined based on the first reference timing information, and the first reference timing information is H pieces of timing information of pre-set objects, and the pre-set objects are configured by a network side device, agreed upon by a protocol, or determined by the terminal, and H is a positive integer.

[0107] It should be noted that the preset object, the first reference object and the second reference object in this optional embodiment can be referred to the above description, and will not be further described here.

[0108] When there are objects corresponding to at least two timing information in the P objects, the timing information having an absolute value equal to or greater than the second value (or the timing information having an offset value for the second reference timing information equal to or greater than the third value) may be certain timing information of the object. In this case, if there is one timing information having an absolute value equal to or greater than the second value (or there is one timing information having an offset value for the second reference timing information equal to or greater than the third value) in the timing information corresponding to any one of the K objects, the object may belong to the P objects. Furthermore, the terminal may report all timing information of the timing information having an absolute value equal to or greater than the second value (or the timing information having an offset value for the second reference timing information equal to or greater than the third value) in the object, and in this case, it can be understood that each timing information among the M pieces of timing information satisfies any one of the following: the absolute value is equal to or greater than the second value, and the offset value for the second reference timing information is equal to or greater than the third value.

[0109] The timing information whose absolute value is equal to or greater than the second value (or whose offset value with respect to the second reference timing information is equal to or greater than the third value) may be all timing information of the object. In this case, if there is one timing information whose absolute value is smaller than the second value (or there is one timing information whose offset value with respect to the second reference timing information is smaller than the third value) among the K objects, the object does not belong to the P objects.

[0110] When specifically implemented, the second value may be greater than or equal to 0, the third value may be greater than or equal to 0, and the second value and the third value may or may not be equal.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present application, optionally, the target information may further include at least one identifier information of an object, a beam, and an antenna panel corresponding to the M timing information. In this way, after receiving the target information, the network side device can accurately know the correspondence relationship between the M timing information and at least one of the object, the beam, and the antenna panel, and can further accurately implement the scheduling restriction and improve the system performance.

[0112] In an embodiment of the present application, optionally, the target information is carried by any one of a Layer 1 measurement report and a Media Access Control (MAC) control unit (Control Element, CE).

[0113] In the following, scenario 1 in which the target information is carried in a Layer 1 measurement report and scenario 2 in which the target information is carried in a MAC CE will be described respectively.

[0114] Scenario 1, the target information is carried in a layer 1 measurement report.

[0115] In scenario 1, the format of the Layer 1 measurement report in which the target information is carried may be N SSBRI / CRI+N L1-RSRP / L1-SINR+the target information.

[0116] In scenario 1, optionally, when the Layer 1 measurement report includes a reference signal resource indication, the reference signal resource indication may correspond to a reference signal resource of at least one first target, and the first target is any one target other than the service target of the terminal.

[0117] In scenario 1, identifier information of at least one of the target, beam, and antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information may be reported explicitly or implicitly by the Layer 1 measurement report.

[0118] Optionally, the Layer 1 measurement report comprises: a) the layer 1 measurement report further includes identifier information of at least one of an object, a beam, and an antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information; b) arranging the first information in the layer 1 measurement report according to a first rule, the first rule being used to determine at least one of an object, a beam, and an antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information; c) When the Layer 1 measurement report includes a reference signal resource indication, at least one of the M pieces of timing information and the reference signal resource indication have a corresponding relationship.

[0119] When the layer 1 measurement report satisfies a), the layer 1 measurement report explicitly reports identifier information of at least one of an object, a beam, and an antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information.

[0120] If the Layer 1 measurement report satisfies b) and c), the Layer 1 measurement report implicitly reports at least one of identifier information of an object, a beam, and an antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information, thus saving signaling overhead compared with the explicit reporting scheme.

[0121] The specific explanation is as follows.

[0122] In b), the terminal adopts a first rule corresponding to at least one of the object, beam, and antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information to arrange the first information, and thus the network side device can determine at least one of the object, beam, and antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information according to the arrangement position of the first information. When specifically implemented, the first rule may be agreed upon by a protocol, or may be agreed upon in advance by the network side device or the terminal, and may be specifically determined according to actual cases, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0123] In c), the M pieces of timing information and the reference signal resource indication have a corresponding relationship, and thus the network side equipment can know at least one of the object, beam, and antenna panel corresponding to the M pieces of timing information by at least one of the object, beam, and antenna panel to which the reference signal resource corresponding to the reference signal resource indication corresponding to each timing information belongs.

[0124] Scenario 2, the target information is carried in the MAC CE.

[0125] Optionally, the MAC CE comprises: 1) the MAC CE is a MAC CE of a first format, and the MAC CE of the first format carries the target information by a first field; 2) the MAC CE is a MAC CE of a second format for carrying the target information.

[0126] When the MAC CE satisfies 1), the MAC CE can carry the target information by a first field and can carry other information by other fields. The first field may be understood as a field dedicated to carrying the target information, newly added to the MAC CE for carrying other signaling messages.

[0127] If the MAC CE satisfies 2), the MAC CE may be understood as a MAC CE dedicated to carrying the newly added target information.

[0128] Optionally, the MAC CE comprises: Timing Advance Command (MAC CE) and Absolute Timing Advance Command (MAC CE) and Power Headroom Report (PHR) MAC CE and It may be either one of secondary cell (SCell) activation or deactivation MAC CE.

[0129] Alternatively, the MAC CE may transmit using a grant configured by the network side device, for example a configured grant, a dynamic grant, etc.

[0130] Furthermore, the permission configured by the network side device may be a permission dedicated to the MAC CE, or may be a multiplexing of the latest available permission, and specifically may be determined according to the actual case, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0131] In an embodiment of the present application, after receiving the target information, the network side equipment may determine a TA of at least one of the K targets based on the target information, and may determine a transmission method of a channel or RS based on the target information. A specific description is as follows:

[0132] First embodiment

[0133] Optionally, after reporting the target information to the network side device, the method further comprises: Receiving Q TAs transmitted by the network side device; determining a TA for each of the K targets based on at least one timing information of the Q TAs and / or the M timing information; Here, the K objects are configured by a network side device or determined by the terminal, K is a positive integer, and Q is a positive integer less than or equal to K.

[0134] Optionally, the Q TAs are: i) the Q TAs include only TAs that are preset by the network side, negotiated by a protocol, or determined by the terminal; ii) the Q TAs include a TA for each of the K objects; and iii) the Q TAs include only target TAs corresponding to the M pieces of timing information.

[0135] When the Q TAs satisfy i), the network side device determines only the TA of the preset target, and the TA of the other targets among the K targets other than the preset target may be determined by the difference (or relative value, offset value) between the timing information and the timing information of the preset target. In a specific implementation, the preset target may be, but is not limited to, a service target of the terminal.

[0136] If the Q TAs satisfy ii), when the network side device determines the TA of each of the K objects, the terminal can directly determine the TA of each of the K objects after receiving the Q TAs, and no further calculation processing is required, thereby reducing the operating burden of the terminal.

[0137] If the Q TAs satisfy iii), the network side device determines only the T of the target corresponding to the M pieces of timing information, and the TA of the other targets among the K targets other than the target corresponding to the M pieces of timing information may be determined by the difference (or relative value, offset value) between that timing information and the timing information of the preset target.

[0138] It should be noted that when an object corresponds to two or more timing information, the TA of the object may be determined based on any one of the corresponding timing information, or may be determined based on the average value, for example a weighted average value or an arithmetic average value, of all the corresponding timing information, and specifically may be determined according to actual cases, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0139] For ease of understanding, an example will be given below for explanation.

[0140] Assume that the K objects include TRP0 and TRP1, TRP0 corresponds to timing information 0, TRP1 corresponds to timing information 1, timing information 0 precedes timing information 1, and there is an interval of two slots between timing information 0 and timing information 1.

[0141] At the same time, suppose that the network side device determines that the TA of TRP0 is six slots, but has not determined the TA of TRP1.

[0142] Then, based on the TA of TRP0 transmitted by the network side device and the relationship between timing information 0 and timing information 1, the terminal can determine the TA of TRP1 as 8 slots.

[0143] In the first embodiment, the terminal determines the TA of each of the K targets, and then can match the uplinks of the K targets according to the TA of each of the K targets. In this way, the network side device (or the target) can receive information transmitted by each terminal at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency of information reception, avoiding mutual interference between multiple uplink information, and further improving system performance.

[0144] Embodiment 2

[0145] Optionally, after reporting the target information to the network side device, the method further comprises: determining whether to perform a sending or receiving operation of a second information of a second object based on the target information; Here, the second target is a service target of the terminal, and the second information includes at least one of a channel and a reference signal.

[0146] When specifically realized, when the second information includes at least one of a downlink channel and a downlink RS, determining whether to perform a transmission or reception operation of the second information of the second object may be specifically embodied as determining whether to perform a reception operation of the second information of the second object.

[0147] When the second information includes at least one of an uplink channel and an uplink RS, determining whether to perform a transmission or reception operation of the second information of the second target may be specifically embodied as determining whether to transmit the second information to the second target.

[0148] It should be noted that the transmission or reception of the second information of the second target may be scheduled by a network side equipment, i.e., whether the network side equipment transmits at least one of the downlink channel and downlink RS of the second target and / or whether the terminal is allowed to transmit at least one of the uplink channel and uplink RS of the second target may be determined by the network side equipment.

[0149] Optionally, controlling a transmission or reception operation of a second information of a second object based on the target information includes: Stopping execution of a transmission or reception operation of a second information of a second target within the target time period; performing a sending or receiving operation of a second information of a second target within the target time period if a second condition is satisfied; Here, the target time zone satisfies at least one of the following: a first start time of the target time zone is before a second start time of the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target; a first end time of the target time zone is after a second end time of the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target; the first target is any one of the targets other than the second target; and the third information includes at least one of a channel and a reference signal, or is a reference signal for measuring timing information.

[0150] The specific explanation is as follows.

[0151] In case 1, the above-mentioned controlling the sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second target based on the target information is specifically embodied by stopping the execution of the sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second target within the target time period.

[0152] In case 1, within the target time period, regardless of whether the second condition is met, the terminal stops the sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second object.

[0153] That is, in case 1, the terminal stops executing the transmission or reception operation of the second information of the second target within T1 before the start time of the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target, and within T2 after the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target and the end time of the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target.

[0154] In case 2, controlling the sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second target based on the target information is specifically embodied in performing the sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second target within the target time period when the second condition is satisfied.

[0155] In case 2, within the target time period, the terminal further determines whether a second condition is met, and if the second condition is met, the terminal can perform a sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second target; otherwise, the terminal can perform a sending or receiving operation of the second information of the second target.

[0156] That is, in case 2, when the second condition is satisfied, the terminal may be within T1 before the start time of the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target, and T2 after the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target and the end time of the transmission / reception time of the third information of the first target, and the terminal performs a transmission or reception operation of the second information of the second target.

[0157] Wherein, T1 is the time interval between the first start time and the second start time, and T2 is the time interval between the first end time and the second end time, where T1 and T2 may be equal to or greater than 0, and may be specifically set according to actual circumstances, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0158] Optionally, T1 and T2 are determined based on timing information of said first object and said second object.

[0159] In a specific implementation, when the number of timing information corresponding to the first target (or the second target) is greater than 1, T1 and T2 are determined based on the target timing information of the first target and the second target. Optionally, T1 and T2 may both be greater than or equal to the absolute value of the difference between the target timing information of the first target and the second target.

[0160] Here, the target timing information of the first target (or the second target) may be any one of the timing information of the first target (or the second target), or the target timing information of the first target (or the second target) is equal to a target value, and the target value is calculated based on the timing information of the first target (or the second target), for example, the target value may be the average or maximum value of all the timing information of the first target (or the second target), but is not limited thereto.

[0161] Optionally, the second condition is The terminal performs a transmission or reception operation of at least one of the third information of the first object and the second information of the second object on a frequency band of a frequency range 1; The third information of the first object and the second information of the second object satisfy a quasi-co-location (QCL) relationship, or have the same spatial relationship, or correspond to the same source reference signal; The terminal satisfies any one of the following: supports simultaneously performing a sending or receiving operation of the third information of the first object and the second information of the second object.

[0162] Furthermore, when the second condition is satisfied that the terminal supports simultaneously performing a sending or receiving operation of the third information of the first object and the second information of the second object, the second condition is satisfied. the terminal including at least one antenna panel; The method further includes any one of the second information and the third information being determined by the network side equipment based on a packet beam report.

[0163] Optionally, the second information is repeatedly transmitted information. Of course, in other embodiments, the second information does not have to be repeatedly transmitted information.

[0164] For ease of understanding, the following description will be given taking the above case 1 and the above TRP0 and TRP1 as examples.

[0165] The TRP0 corresponds to the timing information 0, and the TRP1 corresponds to the timing information 1, where the timing information 0 precedes the timing information 1, and there is an interval of one symbol between the timing information 0 and the timing information 1.

[0166] Suppose that the downlink RS0 of TRP0 and the downlink RS1 of TRP1 are both transmitted at symbol X, the downlink RS0 arrives at the terminal at symbol X, but the downlink symbol RS1 may arrive at the terminal within symbol X and symbol X+1 due to the relatively long propagation path and multi-path propagation, and at the same time, TRP0 is the serving TRP of the terminal.

[0167] At this time, the network side device stops transmitting the downlink RS0 of TRP0 within the arrival time symbol X and symbol X+1 of the downlink RS1 of TRP1.

[0168] In other words, for the above case 1, the terminal stops the receiving operation of the second information of TRP0 at the transmission time (symbol X) of the third information of TRP1 and one symbol thereafter (symbol X+1), and accordingly, the network side equipment stops the transmitting operation of the second information of TRP0 at the transmission time (symbol X) of the third information of TRP1 and one symbol thereafter (symbol X+1).

[0198] a) The preset conditions are: i. The multiple TRP identifier information configured by the network corresponds to different cell index / PCI; ii. the network comprises multiple TRP identifier information; iii. The network has multiple cells / physical cells configured or activated; and iv. There is a difference between the timing information of at least two cells / physical cells / TRPs, or the difference is equal to or greater than a preset value (the existence of a difference between the timing information of at least two cells / physical cells / TRPs, or the difference is equal to or greater than a preset value, is determined based on a measurement result of the terminal on the reference signals of the two cells / physical cells / TRPs, and the above measurement may be a measurement performed by the UE using different antenna panels and / or different beams); v. Configuring or triggering the network to carry timing information in L1-RSRP and L1-SINR reports; vi. the network configuring uplink resources for reporting the timing information.

[0199] b) The timing information to be reported is as follows: i. Timing information of multiple cells / physical cells / TRPs; ii. Absolute values ​​of timing information of multiple cells / physical cells / TRPs; iii. A relative or offset value (offset) of timing information of multiple cells / physical cells / TRPs; iv. It may include any one of a relative value or offset value (offset) of timing information of multiple cells / physical cells / TRPs and reference timing information.

[0200] For example, N TRPs belong to N cells respectively, and the UE determines N pieces of timing information, i.e., N pieces of timing, after measurement. The UE uses the timing of its own cell / current cell / serving cell / current serving cell as reference to calculate offset values ​​offset1, offset2, ..., offsetN-1 for the reference timing of the remaining N-1 timings.

[0201] The reference timing information may be set as one or multiple pieces of information. For example, each TRP may be measured by two panels, and both of these may be used as reference values.

[0202] The timing information may be a signal propagation time length from one cell / physical cell / TRP to the UE, the UE receiving the target time domain resource number of the signal transmitted by the UE from the cell / physical cell / TRP, the boundary of the target time domain resource number where the UE receives the signal transmitted by the UE from the cell / physical cell / TRP, or the TA of the proposed cell / physical cell / TRP. The unit of the timing information may be expressed using the number of frames, the number of slots, the number of symbols, the number of samples, etc., or may be expressed using time units such as seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, etc.

[0203] The timing information of the plurality of cells / physical cells / TRPs may be specifically embodied as all or part of the timing information of the plurality of cells / physical cells / TRPs.

[0204] Further restriction: Timing information (or called timing relationship) of a cell / physical cell / TRP can be reported only if this timing information satisfies pre-defined conditions.

[0205] The absolute value is equal to or greater than a certain preset value, The timing offset value for the reference timing is equal to or greater than a certain preset value.

[0206] For example, if offset is less than delta, don't report it, and only report it if offset is greater than or equal to delta.

[0207] The signaling format of the timing information is 1. The units are frames, slots, symbols, samples, seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, etc. 2. A quantization value of each timing information is determined, and the bit length of the quantization value may be determined by a protocol; 3. Alternatively, a quantized value of the relative value may be determined, and the bit length of the quantized value may be determined by a protocol.

[0208] For example, three TRPs belong to three cells respectively, and the UE measures and determines three timing values. Using the timing value of its own cell as the reference, the UE calculates the other two timing values ​​to obtain offset1 and offset2, which are one symbol and two symbols respectively. In this case, two bits are used, for example, 01 means offset = 1 symbol, and 10 means offset = 2 symbols.

[0209] For example, the relative values ​​may include positive and negative values, where a positive value represents the timing information being later than the reference value and a negative value represents the timing information being earlier than the reference value or vice versa.

[0210] For example, a relative value of 0 may represent that the timing information is the same as the reference value.

[0211] c) Report format: i. Report in L1-RSRP report or L1-SINR report.

[0212] 1. The format is N SSBRI / CRI+N L1-RSRP / L1-SINR+M timing information.

[0213] 2. Optionally, always report timing information of the cell / physical cell / TRP to which the SSB resource / CSI-RS resource corresponding to all N SSBRI / CRI belongs.

[0214] For example, if an L1 report has four SSBRI / CRIs and the corresponding SSB resources / CSI-RS resources belong to two cells / physical cells / TRPs, the timing information of these two cells / physical cells / TRPs is always reported, and may be the absolute or relative values ​​as above.

[0215] 3. Alternatively, if the timing information of a cell / physical cell / TRP to which an SSB resource / CSI-RS resource corresponding to N SSBRIs / CRIs belongs includes timing information that satisfies a preset condition, the timing information of this cell / physical cell / TRP can be reported, and further, only the timing information that satisfies the preset condition can be reported.

[0216] 4. Optionally, in N SSBRI / CRI, the SSB resource / CSI-RS resource of at least one neighboring cell / physical cell / TRP is corresponding, and in this case, the timing information of these cells / physical cells / TRPs is always reported as in 2, or conditionally reported as in 3.

[0217] 5. Optionally, the timing information of each cell / physical cell / TRP that needs to be reported includes at least one of the following:

[0218] a) Timing information corresponding to at least one beam information, and the corresponding beam information.

[0219] For example, when measuring timing information of a certain cell / physical cell / TRP, if a UE measures timing1 using beam1 and timing2 using beam2, it can always report or conditionally report timing1 corresponding to beam1 and timing2 corresponding to beam2, and also report corresponding beam identifier or index information.

[0220] b) timing information corresponding to at least one piece of panel information, and the corresponding panel information;

[0221] For example, similar to the above. Panel information may be a panel id.

[0222] It should be noted that the timing information reported for each cell / physical cell / TRP is A: One object corresponds to one timing, B: One object corresponds to multiple timings, each of which is measured using multiple panels and / or multiple beams. C: One panel corresponds to one timing, D: One beam corresponds to one timing.

[0223] For each of the above items, it is possible to determine whether or not at least one of the object identifier, panel ID, and beam identifier (typically using an RS resource index) is carried in the report.

[0224] 6. Optionally, report cell / physical cell / TRP information and / or panel identifier information and / or beam identifier information corresponding to each timing information.

[0225] The method of reporting cell / physical cell / TRP information and / or panel identifier information and / or beam identifier information corresponding to each timing information is as follows: a) the cell / physical cell / TRP information and / or panel identifier information and / or beam identifier information, such as cell index, PCI, TRP id (Control Resource Set Pool, CORESET Pool Index), may be reported explicitly; b) reporting timing information of each of the cell index, PCI, TRP id, and / or panel identifier information and / or beam identifier information in a pre-agreed order; c) In the L1 report, the SSB resource / CSI-RS resource corresponding to the SSBRI / CRI corresponding to each timing information may be known by identifier information of a cell / physical cell / TRP and / or panel to which the SSB resource / CSI-RS resource belongs and / or identifier information of a beam.

[0226] ii. Report to MAC CE.

[0227] 1. In order to carry information such as cell / physical cell / TRP timing information, cell index, PCI, TRP id, beam information, and panel information, a new field may be added to any one of the following MAC CEs.

[0228] The MAC CE is a) Timing Advance Command MAC CE and b) Absolute Timing Advance Command MAC CE; c) PHR MAC CE; and d) SCell / Deactivation MAC CE.

[0229] 2. The MAC CE transmits using a grant configured by the network.

[0230] Grants that are made up of networks are: a) the grant configured by the network may be a configured grant, a dynamic grant, etc.; b) the grant configured by the network may be a grant dedicated to the MAC CE or a multiplexing of the latest available grant; c) depending on the UE capabilities, determining the timing information and other messages to be reported.

[0231] i. For example, if a UE supports multiple activated panels / multiple beam transmissions and multiple timing processing capabilities or multiple TAs, it can report timing information corresponding to multiple panels / beams.

[0232] ii. For example, if a UE only supports a single timing processing capability or a single TA, it reports only one timing information for each cell / physical cell / TRP.

[0233] (2) The network may perform at least one of the following operations based on the timing information reported by the UE:

[0234] a) Determine the TA.

[0235] i. Decide on only one TA.

[0236] 1. This TA corresponds to a pre-configured cell / physical cell / TRP.

[0237] Alternatively, the pre-configured cell / physical cell / TRP may be the main cell / physical cell / TRP, the current cell / physical cell / TRP, the serving cell / physical cell / TRP, the current serving cell / physical cell / TRP, or the reference cell / physical cell / TRP.

[0238] 2. The TA of the remaining cells / physical cells / TRPs is determined based on the difference in timing information between the TA and the remaining cells / physical cells / TRPs and the preset cell / physical cells / TRPs.

[0239] ii. Determine at least one TA.

[0240] The at least one TA is All cells / physical cells / TRPs, It corresponds to one of the cell / physical cell / TRP corresponding to the timing information reported by the UE.

[0241] b) Determine the transmission method of the channel or RS.

[0242] i. Within the time of the channel or RS of the adjacent cell / physical cell / TRP transmission and within the time length T1 before this time and / or the time length T2 after this time, the own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRP does not transmit a channel or RS.

[0243] 1. When there are multiple adjacent cells / physical cells / TRPs, the above rules shall be applied to each cell / physical cell / TRP.

[0244] 2. T1 and T2 are determined based on the timing information of each cell / physical cell / TRP measured by the UE.

[0245] For example, two TRPs belong to two cells, and the timing offset between TRP2 and TRP1 is one symbol, which explains that in the case of a TRP2 transmission channel or RS, in order to avoid interference from TRP1, no channel or RS is transmitted to TRP1 within the time of the TRP2 transmission channel or RS and within one symbol thereafter.

[0246] 3. Regarding the transmission, if it is a downlink channel or RS, it is transmitted by the network side equipment of the cell / physical cell / TRP and received by the UE. Not transmitting means not transmitting and / or not receiving. If it is an uplink channel or RS, it is received by the network side equipment of the cell / physical cell / TRP and transmitted by the UE, and not transmitting means not transmitting and / or not receiving.

[0247] 4. The channel and RS may include at least one of a downlink channel, a downlink RS, an uplink channel, and an uplink RS.

[0248] 5. The channel or RS adopts a repetition transmission scheme, such as Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) repetition, Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) repetition, Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) repetition, or Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) repetition.

[0249] a) When the channel or RS is transmitted on the own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRP, if a certain number of repeated transmissions of the channel or RS occur within the above time, these several transmissions are stopped.

[0250] b) If the channel or RS is repeatedly transmitted on the own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRP and an adjacent cell / physical cell / TRP, for a certain number of repeated transmissions occurring within the above-mentioned time on the own cell / current cell / serving cell / current serving cell, stopping these transmissions a certain number of times.

[0251] ii. Unlike i above, in the following cases, the own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRP may transmit a channel or RS.

[0252] 1. At least one of the neighboring cell / physical cell / TRP and the own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRP transmits a channel or RS in the UE and the frequency band of FR1.

[0253] 2. The channels or RS of the adjacent cell / physical cell / TRP and own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRP are of QCL, e.g., the beam information is the same, and both may be frequency division multiplexed.

[0254] 3. The channels or RSs of adjacent cells / physical cells / TRPs and own / current / service / current service / master cell / physical cell / TRPs, UEs can receive simultaneously.

[0255] a) At this time, the UE may have a single panel or multiple panels; b) The above simultaneous reception may be multiple channels or RSs from different cells / physical cells / TRPs, which are determined by the network side based on the UE's group based beam report.

[0256] In the embodiment of the present application, the UE can report timing information of multiple cells / physical cells / TRPs. It further restricts the adopted L1 report or MAC CE report, and the specific format design, such as the reported trigger condition, information content (timing offset), signaling format, etc., the determination of the reported timing information based on the UE capability, the manner of determining TA, and the channel transmission restriction determined based on the timing information reported by the UE. As can be seen, the embodiment of the present application proposes a method for the UE to report timing information corresponding to a cell / physical cell / TRP, and the network can accurately know the difference in timing information of each cell / physical cell / TRP by speeding up the reporting process through L1 and L2 signaling, so that the network can balance the interference with adjacent cells when scheduling channel transmission and improve system performance.
