The higher layer parameters frequencyHopping, frequencyHoppingDCI-0-1, and frequencyHoppingDCI-0-2 may be parameters that provide a frequency hopping scheme for PUSCH. For example, a frequency hopping scheme corresponding to the frequency hopping for PUSCH may be set by frequencyHoppingDCI-0-2 in PUSCH-Config. Also, a frequency hopping scheme corresponding to the frequency hopping for PUSCH may be set by frequencyHopping in PUSCH-Config. Also, a frequency hopping scheme corresponding to the frequency hopping for PUSCH transmission set by frequencyHopping in configuredGrantConfig may be set. The frequency hopping scheme may be any of intra-slot frequency hopping, inter-slot frequency hopping, and inter-repetition frequency hopping. Also, the frequency hopping interval corresponding to intra-slot frequency hopping may be within one slot. The frequency hopping interval corresponding to inter-slot frequency hopping may be one slot or multiple slots. The frequency hopping interval corresponding to inter-repetition frequency hopping may be based on nominal repetition.
[0242] For example, the hopping interval may be provided by a higher layer parameter, which may for example be a dedicated higher layer parameter.
[0243] Whether or not to perform frequency hopping may be determined based at least on the DCI. Whether or not to apply frequency hopping for the PUSCH whose transmission is instructed by the DCI format may be determined based at least on a value of a frequency hopping flag field included in the DCI format. Whether or not to apply frequency hopping for the PUSCH whose transmission is instructed by the random access response grant may be determined based at least on a value of a frequency hopping flag field included in the random access response grant. For example, frequency hopping for the PUSCH may be performed based at least on the value of the frequency hopping flag field being 1.
[0244] Intra-slot frequency hopping is applicable for PUSCH transmission in one or more slots. For example, intra-slot frequency hopping may be used for PUSCH repetitive transmission. For PUSCH where intra-slot frequency hopping is applied, 1 or For example, for a PUSCH to which intra-slot frequency hopping is applied, the allocation of resource blocks may be switched every one or more OFDM symbols. The placement may be switched between first hop or second hop. Also, when intra-slot frequency hopping is performed for the PUSCH, the first hop and the second hop may be switched every one or more OFDM symbols. The difference between the position of the first resource block of the first hop and the position of the first resource block of the second hop is RB offset RB offsetmay be set by a higher layer parameter. The one or more OFDM symbols may be within one slot. The one or more OFDM symbols may be half the number of OFDM symbols for the PUSCH in one slot. Intra-slot frequency hopping may be applied to the PUSCH corresponding to PUSCH repetition type A.
[0245] Inter-slot frequency hopping is applied to PUSCH transmission in multiple slots. For PUSCH to which inter-slot frequency hopping is applied, the resource may be allocated per slot. For example, inter-slot frequency hopping may be applied to PUSCH repeated transmission. Also, when inter-slot frequency hopping is performed for PUSCH, the resource block arrangement may be switched between the first hop and the second hop for each slot. For example, in a certain slot, the slot index n μ s,f If n is an even number, the PUSCH transmission in a certain slot may correspond to the first hop. For example, in a certain slot, slot index n μ s,f If , the PUSCH transmission in a slot may correspond to a second hop. Inter-slot frequency hopping is used for PUSCH repetition type A and PUSCH repetition type B. This may be applied to a PUSCH corresponding to either type B.
[0246] Inter-repetition frequency hopping is applied to PUSCH corresponding to PUSCH repetition type B. For PUSCH where frequency hopping between repetitions is applied, the nominal repetition rate may be Based on the return, the first hop and the second hop may be switched.
[0247] At least two transmission schemes may be supported for the PUSCH. For example, codebook-based transmission may be one of the transmission schemes for the PUSCH. For example, non-codebook-based transmission may be one of the transmission schemes for the PUSCH. The higher layer parameters may provide either codebook transmission or non-codebook transmission. For example, if 'codebook' is set for the higher layer parameters, the terminal device 1 may be configured for codebook transmission. For example, if 'nonCodebook' is set for the higher layer parameters, the terminal device 1 may be configured for non-codebook transmission. The higher layer parameters may be txConfig. The higher layer parameters may be usage. For example, if the higher layer parameters are not set, the terminal device 1 may not expect to be scheduled by either DCI format 0_1 or DCI format 0_2. If the PUSCH is scheduled by DCI format 0_0, the transmission of the PUSCH may be based on at least one antenna port.
[0248] In the codebook transmission, the PUSCH may be scheduled by a DCI format. The DCI format may be any of DCI format 0_0, DCI format 0_1, and DCI format 0_2. In the codebook transmission, the PUSCH may be set to be transmitted semi-statically. The terminal device 1 may determine one or more precoders for the PUSCH transmission. For example, the precoder may be determined based on at least some or all of an SRS resource indicator (SRI), a Transmitted Precoding Matrix Indicator (TPMI), and a transmission rank (Transmission rank, or rank). For example, the SRI may be provided by a DCI field of an SRS resource indicator of 1 or 2. For example, the TPMI may be provided by a DCI field of precoding information of 1 or 2. For example, the transmission rank may be provided by a DCI field of a layer number (transmission layer number). The SRI may be provided by a first higher layer parameter. The TPMI and transmission rank may be provided by a second higher layer parameter. The first higher layer parameter may be srs-ResourceIndicator or srs-ResourceIndicator2. The second higher layer parameter may be precodingAndNumberOfLayers or precodingAndNumberOfLayers2.
[0249] The SRS resource set applied to the PUSCH may be determined based on higher layer parameters. The PUSCH is scheduled according to DCI format 0_1 or DCI format 0_2. The higher layer parameter may be srs-ResourceSetToAddModList or srs-ResourceSetToAddModeListDCI-0-2. The higher layer parameter may be a higher layer parameter configured in SRS-Config.
[0250] If the upper layer parameter usage is set to 'codebook', one or two SRS resource sets are specified in srs-ResourceSetToAddModList or srs-ResourceSetToAddModListDCI-0-2. The upper layer parameter usage may be set in the upper layer parameter SRS-ResourceSet.
[0251] When one SRS resource set is configured, SRI and TPMI may be given by the DCI field. TPMI may be used to indicate a precoder. The precoder is a set of v The SRS resource may be applied across layers. When multiple SRS resources are configured, one SRS resource may be selected by the SRI. A transmit precoder (precoder) may be selected from a codebook (uplink codebook). For example, the codebook may include the number of antenna ports. The number of antenna ports is determined by the higher layer parameters nrofSRS-Ports and If 'codebook' is set in the upper layer parameter txConfig, at least one SRS resource may be configured in the terminal device 1. The SRI to be specified is determined by the SRI. The SRS resource may be associated with the transmission of the SRS resource specified by the SRS resource.
[0252] If two SRS resource sets are configured, one or two SRIs and one or two TPMIs For example, the DCI field may be an SRS resource indicator. The terminal device 1 may apply the indicated SRI and TPMI to one or more PUSCH repetitions. The TPMI may be a precoding information field based on a code point of the SRS resource set indication, or a DCI field of precoding information and number of layers. The precoder may be used to indicate a precoder. The precoder may be applied to the 0th to v-1th layers. The precoder may correspond to an SRS resource selected by the SRI. Multiple SRS resources may be configured for the applicable SRS resource set. In one or two TPMIs, the transmission precoder (precoder) may be selected from a codebook (uplink codebook). When two SRIs are indicated, the terminal device 1 may expect that the number of antenna ports for the two indicated SRS resources is the same. The number of antenna ports may be provided by a higher layer parameter.
[0253] In codebook transmission, the terminal device 1 may determine a codebook subset. For example, the codebook subset may be determined based at least on the TPMI. The codebook subset may be determined in response to receiving a higher layer parameter. The higher layer parameter may be codebookSubset or codebookSubsetDCI-0-2. Certain higher layer parameters may be set to 'fullyAndPartialAndNonCoherent', 'partialAndNonCoherent', or 'nonCoherent'. For example, if at least certain higher layer parameters are set to 'partialAndNonCoherent', then the codebook subset associated with a 2-port SRS resource (SRS resource with 2 ports) may be 'nonCoherent'. For example, the codebook may include at least one SRS resource with 4 ports and at least one SRS resource with 2 ports.
[0254] The terminal device 1 may report UE capability. When reporting 'UE capability for transmission', the terminal device 1 may not expect a codebook subset having 'fullyAndPartialAndNonCoherent' to be configured.
[0255] When the terminal device 1 reports a UE capability of 'nonCoherent' transmission, the terminal device 1 may not expect a codebook subset with 'fullyAndPartialAndNonCoherent' or 'partialAndNonCoherent' to be configured.
[0256] If the number of antenna ports indicates that the maximum number of SRS antenna ports to be configured is 2, the terminal device 1 may not expect that a higher layer parameter to which 'partialAndNonCoherent' is set is configured. The higher layer parameter may be codebookSubset or codebookSubsetForDCI-Format0-2. The number of antenna ports may be determined by the higher layer parameter nrofSRS-Ports.
[0257] In codebook transmission, one SRS resource may be determined based on the SRI from the SRS resource set, except when the first higher layer parameter is set to 'fullpowerMode2'. In this case, the maximum number of SRS resources configured for codebook transmission may be 2. The higher layer parameter of the DCI may be ul-FullPowerTransmission. The DCI may indicate the transmission of SRS resources. For example, if aperiodic SRS is configured, the DCI may indicate The SRS request field in the SRS request may indicate the transmission of aperiodic SRS resources. The terminal device 1 may not expect the first higher layer parameter to be set to 'fullpowerMode1' and the second higher layer parameter to be set to 'fullAndPartialAndNonCoherent'.
[0258] The terminal device 1 transmits the SRS link indicated by the DCI format or the higher layer parameters. Use the same antenna port or ports as the SRS port or ports at the source. For example, the SRS port may be an antenna port for PUSCH transmission. The DMRS antenna ports may be determined according to the ordering of the DMRS ports.
[0259] When multiple SRS resources are configured by an SRS resource set, the terminal device 1 The higher layer parameter nrofSRS-Ports may be expected to be set with the same value for all SRS resources from the SRS resource set. It may be a higher layer parameter SRS-ResourceSet with meter usage.
[0260] If 'fullpowerMode2' is set for the upper layer parameters, one or more SRS resources with the same or different SRS port numbers may be configured in one SRS resource set. A maximum of two different spatial relations may be configured for all SRS resources in an SRS resource set if 'fullpowerMode2' is set for the higher layer parameters. A maximum of two or four SRS resources may be configured in an SRS resource set if 'fullpowerMode2' is set for the higher layer parameters. Also, a maximum of eight SRS resources may be configured in an SRS resource set. An SRS resource set may be an SRS resource set with the higher layer parameter usage set to 'codebook'.
[0261] In non-codebook transmission, the PUSCH is DCI format 0_0, DCI format 0_1, or , may be scheduled according to DCI format 0_2. The terminal device 1 may determine the precoder and transmission rank of the PUSCH based on the SRI. For example, when multiple SRS resources are configured, the SRI is given by one or two SRS resource indications in the DCI. For example, the SRI may be given by a higher layer parameter, and the SRS resource set applied to the PUSCH may be defined by an entry in the higher layer parameter. The upper layer parameter may be srs-ResourceSetToAddModList or srs-ResourceSetToAddModListDCI-0-2.
[0262] The terminal device 1 may use one or more SRS resources for SRS transmission. The maximum number of SRS resources in one SRS resource set may be transmitted to the base station device 3 as a UE capability. The SRS resources may be configured for simultaneous transmission in the same OFDM symbol. Multiple SRS resources transmitted simultaneously may occupy the same resource block. One SRS port may be configured for each SRS resource. One or two SRS resource sets may be configured in the higher layer parameter srs-ResourceSetToAddModList with the higher layer parameter usage set to 'nonCodebook' in the higher layer parameter SRS-ResourceSet. If two SRS resource sets are configured, one or two SRIs may be given by the DCI field. The DCI field may be a DCI field of two SRS resource indications.
[0263] The terminal device 1 may apply the indicated SRI to one or more PUSCH repetitions. For example, according to the SRS resource set of the PUSCH repetition, the terminal device 1 may apply the indicated SRI to one or more PUSCH repetitions. Or it may be applied to multiple PUSCH repetitions. The maximum number of SRS resources per SRS resource set that can be used may be four. The maximum number of SRS resources per SRS resource set configured for packet transmission is 8. Each of the one or two SRIs indicated shall be the SRS resource set identified by the SRI. The SRS resource set may relate to the latest transmission of the SRS resource of the SRS resource set. The SRS transmission may be prior to the PDCCH carrying the SRI. The terminal device 1 may not expect that different numbers of SRS resources are configured in the two SRS resource sets.
[0264] Multiple PDCCH candidates (PDCCH candidate(s)) are searched for according to the higher layer parameters. When the search area set is associated with a PDCCH candidate, one PDCCH candidate is used. The upper layer parameter may be a PDCCH candidate that is started earlier among the PDCCH candidates. The upper layer parameter may be searchSpaceLinking.
[0265] For non-codebook transmission, the UE may calculate a precoder. For example, the precoder used for SRS transmission may be calculated based on measurements of the NZP CSI-RS resources. One NZP CSI-RS resource may be configured for one SRS resource set. For example, one SRS resource set may be an SRS resource set with higher layer parameters set to 'nonCodebook'.
[0266] When an aperiodic SRS resource set is configured, the NZP-CSI RS may be indicated via an SRS request field. The SRS request field may be one of the DCI fields in any of DCI format 0_1, DCI format 0_2, DCI format 1_1, and DCI format 1_2. A first upper layer parameter may indicate an association between an aperiodic SRS (aperiodic SRS triggering state) and an SRS resource set. The first upper layer parameter, the triggered SRS resource, srs-ResourceSetId, and csi-RS may be configured in an upper layer parameter SRS-ResourceSet. The upper layer parameter csi-RS may indicate the NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceId. The upper layer parameter SRS-ResourceSet associated with the SRS request may be defined by an entry in a list that is an upper layer parameter. The list, which is an upper layer parameter, may be the upper layer parameter srs-ResourceSetToAddModList or srs-ResourceSetToAddModListDCI-0-2. The terminal device 1 may not be expected to update the precoding information (SRS precoding information). For example, if the gap from the last OFDM symbol of reception of the aperiodic NZP-CSI-RS resource to the first OFDM symbol of the aperiodic SRS transmission is 42 OFDM symbols or less, the terminal device 1 may not be expected to update the precoding information.
[0267] If an aperiodic SRS associated with the aperiodic NZP CSI-RS resource is configured, the presence of CSI-RS may be indicated by the SRS request field. If the value of the SRS request field is not '00' and the scheduling DCI is not used for cross carrier scheduling or cross bandwidth part scheduling, the presence of the CSI-RS may be indicated by the SRS request field.
[0268] The terminal device 1 may perform one-to-one mapping. The one-to-one mapping may be a mapping from the SRI to the DMRS port and the corresponding PUSCH layer. There may be 0 to v-1 PUSCH layers, where v may be the number of layers. The number of layers may be set by a higher layer parameter. The terminal device 1 may transmit the PUSCH using the same antenna port as the SRS port. For example, the SRS ports in the SRS resource indicated by the SRI may be indexed as pi = 1000 + i. For example, the SRS port in the (i + 1)-th SRS resource may be The SRS port in the (i+1)-th SRS resource may be pi. pi may be 1000+i. That is, pi=1000+i. It's fine.
[0269] In non-codebook transmission, the terminal device 1 may not expect that both the spatial relation information (info) for the SRS resource and the higher layer parameter associatedCSI-RS in the higher layer parameter SRS-ResourceSet for the SRS resource set are configured. The spatial relation information may be determined by the higher layer parameter. The spatial relation information may be the higher layer parameter spatialRelationInfo. In non-codebook transmission, when at least one SRS resource is configured in an SRS resource set with the higher layer parameter set to 'nonCodebook', the terminal device 1 may be scheduled by DCI format 0_1 or DCI format 0_2.
[0270] One or more SRS resource sets (SRS resource sets) are The first higher layer parameter may be SRS-ResourceSet or SRS-PosResourceSet. In each SRS resource set, K SRS resources may be configured. K may be an integer equal to or greater than 1. The maximum value of K may be indicated by the UE capability. The maximum value of K may be 16. The adaptability of the SRS resource set may be configured in the second higher layer parameter. The second higher layer parameter may be usage. For example, when 'beamManagement' is set for the second higher layer parameter, one SRS resource may be transmitted in each of one or more SRS resource sets. For example, an SRS resource may be transmitted at a given time instance. Multiple SRS resources in different SRS resource sets may be transmitted simultaneously. For example, multiple SRS resources with the same time domain behavior in different SRS resource sets of the same BWP may be transmitted simultaneously.
[0271] In aperiodic SRS, the ISP must select at least one SRS resource from the set of configured SRS resources. , at least one DCI field may be used.
[0272] The one or more SRS parameters may be set by a first higher layer parameter. For example, one or more SRS parameters may be semi-statically configured by a second higher layer parameter. The first higher layer parameter may be SRS-Resource or SRS-PosResource. The second higher layer parameter may determine an SRS resource configuration identity. The second higher layer parameter may be srs-ResourceId or SRS-PosResourceId. The number of SRS ports may be determined by a third higher layer parameter. The third higher layer parameter may be nrofSRS-Ports. The SRS ports may be antenna ports. For example, the SRS ports may be antenna ports for the SRS. Time domain behaviour of the SRS resource configuration may be determined by a fourth higher layer parameter. The fourth higher layer parameter may be resourceType. For example, the time domain behaviour may be any of periodic, semi-persistent, and aperiodic. The periodicity and offset may be determined by a fifth higher layer parameter. The periodicity and offset may be slot level. The periodicity and offset may be defined for periodic SRS resources or semi-persistent SRS resources. The fifth higher layer parameter may be periodicityAndOffset-p or periodicityAndOffset-sp. For example, multiple SRS resources with different periodicities may not be expected to be configured in the same SRS resource set. If 'aperiodic' is set for the fourth higher layer parameter, the slot level offset may be defined by a sixth higher layer parameter. The sixth higher layer parameter may be slotOffset. If 'aperiodic' is set for the fourth higher layer parameter, a list of available slot offset values may be defined by a seventh higher layer parameter.The seventh higher layer parameter may be AvailableSlotOffset. The list of available slot offset values may be a list of different available slot offset values from 0 to 4. If the reference slot is n+k, the available slot offset may be an offset from the n+k slot to a slot in which the aperiodic SRS resource set may be transmitted. Slot n may be the slot of a triggering DCI. The triggering DCI may trigger the transmission of the aperiodic SRS. Slot k may be determined by the sixth higher layer parameter. The seventh higher layer parameter may be configured with up to four values. In the aperiodic SRS resource set, a slot-level offset may be defined by the sixth higher layer parameter for each SRS resource.
[0273] Furthermore, the number of OFDM symbols in the SRS resource (the number of consecutive OFDM symbols) and the start OFDM symbol of the SRS resource (the start position in the time domain) may be defined by an eighth higher layer parameter. The eighth higher layer parameter may be resourceMapping. In addition, the repetition factor may be set by the eighth higher layer parameter. If the repetition factor is not set by the eighth higher layer parameter, the repetition factor may be the same as the number of OFDM symbols in the SRS resource. SRS bandwidth B SRS and C. SRS may be defined by the ninth higher layer parameter. If the ninth higher layer parameter is not set, B SRSmay be 0. The ninth upper layer parameter may be freqHopping. A partial frequency sounding factor and a starting resource block index for partial frequency sounding may be defined by a tenth upper layer parameter. The tenth upper layer parameter may be FreqScalingFactor and StartRBIndex. The frequency domain location may be defined by an eleventh upper layer parameter. The configurable shift may be defined by a twelfth upper layer parameter. The eleventh upper layer parameter may be freqDomainPosition. The twelfth upper layer parameter may be freqDomainShift.
[0274] Furthermore, the number of combs (the number of transmission combs) may be defined by a 13th upper layer parameter. The 13th upper layer parameter may be transmissionComb. The number of combs may be 2, 4, or 8. The cyclic shift is defined by a 14th upper layer parameter. The fourteenth higher layer parameter may be any one of cyclicShift-n2, cyclicShift-n4, and cyclicShift-n8. The comb offset (transmission comb offset) may be defined by the fifteenth higher layer parameter. The fifteenth higher layer parameter may be any one of combOffset-n2, combOffset-n4, and combOffset-n8. The SRS sequence ID may be defined by the sixteenth higher layer parameter.
[0275] Furthermore, a spatial relation between a reference signal (RS) and an SRS may be defined by a 17th higher layer parameter. For example, a spatial relation between a reference RS (reference signal) and a target SRS may be set by the 17th higher layer parameter. The 17th higher layer parameter may be spatialRelationInfo or spatialRelationInfoPos. The spatial relation setting may include an ID of a reference signal (reference reference signal). The reference signal may be an SS / PBCH block. The reference signal may be a CSI-RS. The reference signal may be a certain SRS. The reference signal may be set in one serving cell. For example, one serving cell may be indicated by the 18th higher layer parameter. A certain SRS may be set in one BWP in one serving cell. For example, one serving cell may be the same serving cell as the target SRS. For example, one BWP may be set by the 19th higher layer parameter. The eighteenth upper layer parameter may be servingCellId. The nineteenth upper layer parameter may be uplinkBWP. The one or more SRS parameters may be configured by the first upper layer parameter. For example, the first upper layer parameter may be SRS-Resource or SRS-PosResource. The one or more SRS parameters may include some or all of the second to nineteenth upper layer parameters. The SRS being transmitted may be an SRS resource being transmitted. The SRS being transmitted may be an SRS resource set being transmitted. The SRS transmission may be an SRS resource transmission. The SRS transmission may be an SRS resource set transmission.
[0276] An SRS resource may occupy one or more OFDM symbols. For example, an SRS resource is the last 6 OFDM symbols of one slot, N SRS symb may occupy N OFDM symbols. SRS symb The number of SRS resources can be 1, 2, or 4. For example, an SRS resource can be one For example, the SRS resource may occupy any of the OFDM symbol positions in the lot. , N in one slot SRS symb may occupy N adjacent OFDM symbols. SRS ap pcs An antenna port may be mapped to each OFDM symbol of the resource. SRS ap , but 4 For example, the Nth SRS resource SRS ap N antenna ports may be mapped to each OFDM symbol of the resource. SRS symb N can be 1, 2, 4, 8, or 12. SRS symb N can be 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 12, or 14. SRS ap If is 8, then N SRS symb can be even. For example, N SRS ap,1 The antenna ports may be mapped to slots with even slot indices. For example, SRS ap,2 The antenna ports may be mapped to slots with odd slot indices. SRS ap is N SRS ap,1 + N SRS ap,2 may be also possible.
[0277] When the PUSCH and the SRS are transmitted in the same slot, the SRS may be configured to be transmitted after the PUSCH transmission. For example, when the PUSCH and the SRS are transmitted in one slot in one serving cell, the SRS may be configured to be transmitted after the PUSCH and the corresponding DMRS transmission.
[0278] When a PUSCH or PUCCH transmission overlaps with an SRS transmission, the SRS may not be transmitted in the overlapping OFDM symbol. For example, when a PUSCH or PUCCH transmission overlaps with an SRS transmission in the time domain in one serving cell, the SRS may not be transmitted in the overlapping OFDM symbol. Also, if a PUSCH transmission or a PUCCH transmission overlaps with an SRS transmission, the SRS may not be transmitted. SRS ap If is 8, If the PUSCH transmission or PUCCH transmission overlaps with the SRS, the SRS may not be transmitted. SRS ap If is 8 and if a PUSCH or PUCCH transmission overlaps with an SRS, then the SRS may not be transmitted in the overlapping OFDM symbol set.
[0279] If 'periodic' is set for the upper layer parameter resourceType, Target SRS resource with spatial domain transmission filter If a higher layer parameter contains an ID, then a spatial region may be sent. A target SRS resource with a spatial domain filter may be transmitted. One spatial domain filter may be used for receiving or transmitting a reference reference signal (reference signal). The reference reference signal may be an SS / PBCH block, a CSI-RS, or an SRS. For example, if a higher layer parameter includes any one of the IDs of 'ssb-Index', 'ssb-IndexServing', and 'ssb-IndexNcell', the reference reference signal may be an SS / PBCH block. For example, if a higher layer parameter includes any one of the IDs of 'csi-RS-Index' and 'csi-RS-IndexServing', the reference reference signal may be a periodic CSI-RS or a semi-persistent CSI-RS. For example, if a higher layer parameter includes any one of the IDs of 'srs' and 'srs-spatialRelation', the reference reference signal may be a periodic SRS. The reference reference signal may be a DL PRS.
[0280] If 'semi-persistent' is set for the upper layer parameter resourceType, the first slot (n+3N subframe,μ slot SRS transmission may start from the first slot after the first slot. For example, the assumptions on SRS transmission may be applied from the first slot. The slot n may be a slot in which a PUCCH is transmitted. For example, the PUCCH may have HARQ-ACK information corresponding to a PDSCH carrying an activation command. That is, when an activation command is received, SRS transmission may start from the first slot. Also, when an activation command is received, an assumption on SRS transmission may be applied from the first slot. The activation command may include an assumption on spatial relationship (or spatial relationship). The assumption on spatial relationship may be provided by a list. The list may be a list of reference signal IDs. For example, each of the reference signal IDs may refer to one of an SS / PBCH block, an NZP CSI-RS resource, and an SRS resource. The NZP CSI-RS resource may be configured in one serving cell. The SRS resource may be configured in one serving cell and one uplink BWP. For example, one serving cell may be indicated by a first field in the activation command. For example, one uplink BWP may be indicated by a second field in the activation command. The first field may be a Resource Serving Cell ID field. The second field may be a Resource BWP ID field. For example, one serving cell may be the same serving cell as the SRS resource set. For example, one uplink BWP may be the same uplink BWP as the SRS resource set.
[0281] One SRS resource in the activated SRS resource set (resource set) is the superior If set by the layer parameters, the ID of the first reference signal in the activation command is It may be envisaged to overwrite the ID of the second reference signal in the layer parameters. The layer parameter can be spatialRelationInfo or spatialRelationInfoPos. stomach.
[0282] If a deactivation command is received and if a PUCCH is transmitted in slot n, the suspension of SRS transmission may be applied from the first slot. The deactivation command may be conveyed by a PDSCH. The PUCCH may include HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH. The suspension of SRS transmission corresponding to the deactivated SRS resource set may be applied from the first slot. The first slot may be n+3N. subframe,μ slot μ may be the first slot after the slot. μ may be the SCS setting for the PUCCH.
[0283] Terminal device 1 sets active semi-persistent SRS resource A semi-persistent SRS resource configuration may be considered active in one uplink BWP if the SRS resource configuration has a deactivation command and does not receive a deactivation command. The uplink BWP may be active. In addition, the terminal device 1 may have an active semi-persistent SRS resource. It has an active semi-persistent SRS resource configuration and When an activate command is received, the configuration of the semi-persistent SRS resource may be suspended.
[0284] If 'aperiodic' is set for the higher layer parameter resourceType, some or all of actions 1 to 7 may apply.
[0285] Operation 1 may be receiving a configuration of one of one or more SRS resource sets.
[0286] Operation 2 may be receiving a command. The command may be a downlink DCI based command. The command may be a group common DCI based command. The command may be an uplink DCI based command. The minimal time interval is N 2 OFDM symbols and an additional time period T switch The minimum time interval may be a minimum time interval from the last OFDM symbol of the PDCCH that triggers the aperiodic SRS transmission to the first OFDM symbol of the SRS resource. The minimum time interval may be N 2 +14 OFDM symbols and an additional time period T switch The minimum time interval may be determined based at least on a minimum SCS. The minimum SCS may be a minimum SCS among the SCSs of the PDCCH, the first uplink carrier, the second uplink carrier, and the SRS. The additional time period T switch may be 0.
[0287] Action 3 may be that aperiodic SRS without data and CSI is triggered. For example, DCI format 0_1 and DCI format 0_2 may trigger aperiodic SRS. A periodic SRS does not have to include data and CSI.
[0288] In operation 4, the terminal device 1 may transmit an SRS in each of one or more SRS resource sets and in the t+1-th available slot. The SRS may be an aperiodic SRS. The one or more SRS resource sets may be triggered by a DCI. The DCI triggering the aperiodic SRS may be received in the first slot n. At least one resource set (SRS resource set) may be configured by an upper layer parameter availableSlotOffset. The available slot may be counted from a second slot. The second slot may be determined based on at least the first slot and an offset value (slot k). The offset value may be configured by a second upper layer parameter. The second upper layer parameter may be slotOffset. The second upper layer parameter may be configured for each of the one or more triggered SRS resource sets. The available slot may be a slot that satisfies a condition. The condition may be that a UL symbol or a flexible symbol exists for a time domain position corresponding to a plurality of SRS resources in one resource set (SRS resource set). The condition may be to satisfy a UE capability of a minimum timing requirement. The minimum timing requirement may be a minimum timing requirement between the triggering PDCCH and all SRS resources in one resource set. From the first OFDM symbol carrying the DCI of the SRS request to the last OFDM symbol of the triggered SRS resource set, the terminal device 1 may not expect to receive an SFI indication in the flexible symbol, an UL cancellation indication, and dynamic scheduling of the downlink channel / signal. From the first OFDM symbol carrying the DCI of the SRS request to the last OFDM symbol of the triggered SRS resource set, the terminal device 1 may not expect to change the determination of the available slot. The t may be set by a third higher layer parameter. The third higher layer parameter may be availableSlotOffset.For example, t may be configured with up to four values for each of one or more triggered SRS resource sets. t may be based on the subcarrier spacing of the triggered SRS transmission. For SRS resource sets for which the third higher layer parameter is not configured, t may be 0.
[0289] Operation 5 may be transmitting an SRS in each of the one or more SRS resource sets and in the first slot. The SRS may be an aperiodic SRS. A DCI triggering the aperiodic SRS may be received in slot n. The first higher layer parameter is There may be no resource set (SRS resource set). A second higher layer parameter may be configured. The second higher layer parameter may be ca-SlotOffset. The lot may be determined based at least on slot n and slot k.
[0290] Operation 6 may include transmitting the target SRS resource with one spatial domain filter. stomach.
[0291] Operation 7 may be that the spatial relationship update for one SRS resource is applied to an SRS transmission. subframe,μ slot The update command may start from the first slot after the 1st slot. μ may be the SCS setting of the PUCCH. The update command is carried by the PDSCH. The HARQ-ACK corresponding to the PDSCH may be transmitted in slot n. One SRS resource may be set by the higher layer parameter SRS-Resource. The terminal device 1 may receive an update command The update command may receive a spatial relation update command. The spatial relationship assumption may be provided by a list, which may refer to one or more reference signal IDs.
[0292] Setting 'aperiodic' for the higher layer parameter resourceType may indicate that the SRS resource corresponds to aperiodic SRS. Setting 'semi-persistent' for the higher layer parameter resourceType may indicate that the SRS resource corresponds to semi-persistent SRS. Setting 'periodic' for the higher layer parameter resourceType may indicate that the SRS resource corresponds to periodic SRS.
[0293] The time domain behavior corresponding to one or more SRS resources in one SRS resource set may not be expected to be different. For example, different time domain behaviors for one or more SRS resources in one SRS resource set may not be expected to be configured. Different time domain behaviors may not be expected to be configured between SRS resources and their associated SRS resource sets.
[0294] It may not be expected that the first SRS resource and the second SRS resource are configured to overlap one or more OFDM symbols in one carrier. For example, the first SRS resource may be configured by the higher layer parameter SRS-PosResource. The second SRS resource may be configured by the higher layer parameter SRS-Resource. The resourceType of both the first SRS resource and the second SRS resource may be 'periodic'.
[0295] The first SRS may not be expected to trigger or activate the transmission of the first SRS. For example, the first SRS may be an SRS in one or more OFDM symbols. The one or more OFDM symbols may overlap the first SRS resource and the second SRS resource. For example, the first SRS resource may be configured by an upper layer parameter SRS-PosResource. The second SRS resource may be configured by an upper layer parameter SRS-Resource. The resourceType of both the first SRS resource and the second SRS resource may be 'semi-persistent' or 'aperiodic'.
[0296] In one carrier, configuration of multiple OFDM symbols overlapping with multiple SRS resources may not be expected. Multiple SRS resources may be configured by higher layer parameter SRS-PosResource where resourceType of multiple SRS resources is 'periodic'.
[0297] A carrier may not be expected to trigger or activate SRS transmission in multiple OFDM symbols. Multiple OFDM symbols may be used to transmit multiple SRS links. The SRS resources may be OFDM symbols that overlap with the source. The SRS resources may be configured by higher layer parameter SRS-PosResource, where the resourceType of the SRS resources is 'semi-persistent' or 'aperiodic'.
[0298] For PUCCH and SRS in one carrier, the terminal device 1 may not transmit an SRS when the first SRS is configured. The first SRS may be configured in the same OFDM symbol as the PUCCH. The PUCCH may carry only a CSI report. The PUCCH may carry only an L1-RSRP report. The PUCCH may carry only an L1-SINR report. The terminal device 1 may not transmit an SRS when the transmission of the second SRS is configured or triggered. The second SRS may be either a semi-persistent SRS or a periodic SRS that is configured to be transmitted in the same OFDM symbol as the PUCCH. The second SRS may be an aperiodic SRS that is triggered to be transmitted in the same OFDM symbol as the PUCCH. The PUCCH may carry some or all of an HARQ-ACK, a link recovery request, and a scheduling request (SR). If the SRS is not transmitted due to overlap with the PUCCH, only the SRS symbols that overlap with the PUCCH symbols may be dropped. SRS ap If is 8, SRS symbols that overlap with PUCCH symbols and SRS symbols that do not overlap with PUCCH symbols may be dropped. If an aperiodic SRS is triggered to be transmitted because it overlaps with a PUCCH, then the PUCCH may not be transmitted.
[0299] One SRS resource corresponding to the resourceType with 'aperiodic' set is periodic, Alternatively, when the transmission of the semi-persistent SRS is triggered in one or more OFDM symbols in which the transmission of the semi-persistent SRS is set, the terminal device 1 may transmit the aperiodic SRS resource, and the periodic or semi-persistent SRS in the overlapping OFDM symbols may be dropped. Periodic or semi-persistent SRS in the N symbol may be transmitted. SRS apIf N is 8, the periodic or semi-persistent SRS in non-overlapping OFDM symbols may be dropped. Dropping may mean not transmitting. If an SRS resource corresponding to resourceType in which 'semi-persistent' is set is triggered in one or more OFDM symbols in which periodic SRS transmission is configured, the terminal device 1 may transmit the semi-persistent SRS resource, and the periodic SRS in overlapping OFDM symbols may be dropped. The periodic SRS in non-overlapping OFDM symbols may be transmitted. SRS ap If is equal to 8, then periodic or semi-persistent SRS in overlapping OFDM symbol sets may be dropped.
[0300] A spatial relation (spatialRelationInfo) is activated or updated for the first SRS resource. If the SRS resource is updated, the spatial relationship may be applied to the second SRS resource. The first SRS resource may be a semi-persistent SRS resource or an aperiodic SRS resource. The second SRS resource may be a semi-persistent SRS resource or an aperiodic SRS resource with the same SRS resource ID. The second SRS resource may be a semi-persistent SRS resource or an aperiodic SRS resource with the same SRS resource ID for all BWPs in the determined multiple CCs. The first SRS resource may be configured by a higher layer parameter. The spatial relationship may be activated or updated by a MAC CE for a set of multiple CCs (component carriers) or / and multiple BWPs. The list of multiple CCs may be determined by a higher layer parameter. The higher layer parameter may be simultaneousSpatial-UpdatedList1 or simultaneousSpatial-UpdatedList2.
[0301] For one SRS resource, a repetition factor may be set. The number of repetitions may be set by higher layer parameters. The repetitions are 1, 2, 4 The number of repetitions may be N SRS symb The number of repetitions may be N or less. SRS symb may be the same as N when frequency hopping is not configured. Each of the multiple antenna ports of one SRS resource may be mapped to the first set. For example, when frequency hopping is not configured, each of the multiple antenna ports of one SRS resource in each slot may be mapped to N SRS symb All OFDM symbols The first set may be mapped to the first set in The first set may be a set of carriers, the first set being a set of one or more carriers in the second set. The second set may be a set of one or more PRBs. For example, when frequency hopping is not configured within one SRS resource in each slot, each of the multiple antenna ports of one SRS resource in each slot may be SRS symb All of the OFDM symbols may be mapped to the first set.
[0302] Furthermore, when frequency hopping is configured within one SRS resource in each slot and there is no repetition (the repetition number is 1), each antenna port of one SRS resource in each slot may be mapped to a different set in each OFDM symbol. A set may be a set of one or more subcarriers. The same transmission comb value may be assumed for the different sets.
[0303] In addition, the terminal device 1 may perform or apply the following in the means 2: When frequency hopping and repetition are configured, one or more antenna ports of one SRS resource Each may be mapped to a subcarrier included in the n-th subcarrier set in an OFDM symbol included in the n-th OFDM symbol set. , R adjacent OFDM symbol pairs, where R is the number of repetitions. The nth subcarrier set may be composed of one or more subcarriers. can be a large integer greater than or equal to 1. For example, n is N SRS symb / R. The n-th subcarrier set may be composed of one or more subcarriers different from the subcarrier sets other than the n-th subcarrier set. When frequency hopping and repetition are configured within one SRS resource in each slot, each of the antenna ports of one SRS resource in each slot is mapped to the same subcarrier set within each of the R OFDM symbol pairs. The frequency hopping may be performed according to the SRS frequency hopping pattern, and the frequency hopping between the two pairs may follow the SRS frequency hopping pattern. The rule may be applied, may be executed, or may be set.
[0304] Furthermore, the terminal device 1 may perform or apply the following in the means 2. When the number of antenna ports is 8, N SRS symb / R may be an even number. If the number of antenna ports is 8, N SRS symb / R may be 2 or more. When the number of antenna ports is 8, the first antenna The antenna port set and a second antenna port set may be determined. may be configured with four antenna ports. The first antenna port set may be configured with the first OFDM The first subcarrier set mapped in the symbol may be the same as the second subcarrier set to which the second antenna port set is mapped in the second OFDM symbol. The first OFDM symbol may be different from the second OFDM symbol.
[0305] For example, the antenna ports included in the first antenna port set of one SRS resource Each of the first sub-symbols includes a first OFDM symbol in a first OFDM symbol set. The antennas included in the second antenna port set may be mapped to the second carrier set. Each of the antenna ports in the first antenna port set may be mapped to a first subcarrier set in a second OFDM symbol included in the first OFDM symbol set. Each of the antenna ports in the first antenna port set may be mapped to a second subcarrier set in a first OFDM symbol included in the second OFDM symbol set. Each of the antenna ports in the second antenna port set may be mapped to a second subcarrier set in a second OFDM symbol included in the second OFDM symbol set. Switching the mapping from the first subcarrier set to the second subcarrier set may be referred to as frequency hopping. That is, when the number of antenna ports is 8, N SRS symb Frequency hopping may be applied for every / R OFDM symbol. An OFDM symbol set may consist of two or more OFDM symbols. A subcarrier set may consist of one or more subcarriers. An antenna port set may consist of four antenna ports.
[0306] For example, when the number of antenna ports is 4 or less, the first hopping frequency (first SRS hopping frequency) is used. If the number of antenna ports is eight, the second hopping pattern may be applied. A hopping frequency (second SRS hopping pattern) may be applied. The first SRS hopping pattern may be different from the second SRS hopping pattern.
[0307] Aperiodic SRS resources with intra-slot frequency hopping within one BWP are configured. If the number of repetitions is 1 and frequency hopping is configured, full hopping may be used. The full hopping bandwidth is N SRS symb The subbands may be sounded in equal-size subbands across the symbol. The bandwidth may be sounded over two pairs of equal sized subbands. Each of the two pairs may consist of R adjacent OFDM symbols. Each of the antenna ports of the signal receiving element may be mapped to the same subcarrier set in each OFDM symbol set. An OFDM symbol set is a pair of R adjacent OFDM symbols. A subcarrier set may be a set of one or more subcarriers. A pair of R adjacent OFDM symbols may be a resource OFDM symbol.
[0308] Periodic or semi-persistent SRS resources with inter-slot or intra-slot hopping within one BWP may be configured. The SRS resources may occupy the same OFDM symbol position in each slot. An N-symbol SRS resource may occupy the same OFDM symbol position in each slot. SRS symb If is 4, and the number of iterations is If the number is 2 and frequency hopping is configured, then intra-slot hopping is used. Inter-slot hopping may be supported for each of the multiple antenna ports, where each of the multiple antenna ports may support a different sub-channel across two pairs in each slot. Each of the two pairs may be R adjacent OFDM symbols. Each of the antenna ports of the SRS resource may be assigned the same number of antenna ports in each pair. A first portion of the antenna ports of the SRS resources may be mapped to the same subcarrier set within each pair, and a first portion of the antenna ports of the SRS resources may be mapped to the first subcarrier set within each pair, and a second portion of the antenna ports of the SRS resources may be mapped to the second subcarrier set within each pair.
[0309] SRS resources may be configured by higher layer parameters. For example, the higher layer parameter may be SRS-PosResource. A number of antenna ports may be determined for the SRS resource. A number of consecutive OFDM symbols may be determined for the SRS resource. A time domain A frequency domain starting position for the SRS resource may be determined. A comb number may be determined for the SRS resource. A maximum number of cyclic shifts may be determined for the SRS resource. An SRS sequence length may be determined for the SRS resource.
[0310] An SRS resource may consist of one or more elements. Number of antenna ports N SRS ap and the number of consecutive OFDM symbols, N SRS symb and the start position of the time domain l 0 and , the starting position k in the frequency domain 0 The number of antenna ports N may be a part or whole of the above. SRSap may be the number of antenna ports for the SRS. For example, the number of antenna ports N SRS ap may be provided by a first higher layer parameter. The first higher layer parameter may be nrofSRS-Ports. The number of antenna ports N SRS ap may be any of 1, 2, 4, and 8. The antenna port pi is the number of antenna ports N SRS ap For example, i may range from 0 to N SRS ap The antenna port pi may be a value up to -1, or the antenna port pi may be i+1000. The antenna port pi is determined based on the number of antenna ports N SRS ap may be determined based at least on whether the first higher layer parameter is provided. If the first higher layer parameter is not provided, the number of antenna ports N SRS ap may be 1. The antenna port may be any of 1000, 1001, 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005, 1006, or 1007.
[0311] The number of consecutive OFDM symbols, N SRS symb may be 1, 2, 4, 8, or 12. For example, the number of consecutive OFDM symbols N SRS symb may be determined by a higher layer parameter. The higher layer parameter may be nrofSymbols. The higher layer parameter may be the higher layer parameter resourceMapping that includes a field of nrofSymbols.

For example, the start r (pi) (0, l') is mapped to resource element (k, l) in a certain slot for each antenna port pi. For example, the start r of the SRS sequence may be determined based at least on the antenna port pi.
