[0022] In some embodiments, the first node 101 is a terminal device. The terminal device may also be referred to as a terminal, a user equipment (UE), a mobile station, a mobile terminal, etc. The terminal device may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer with a wireless transceiver function, a virtual reality terminal device, an augmented reality terminal device, a wireless terminal in industrial control, a wireless terminal during unmanned driving, a wireless terminal during remote surgery, a wireless terminal during transportation safety, a wireless terminal in a smart city, a wireless terminal in a smart home, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the technologies and device forms used in terminal devices.

In the following description, the base station 1021, the server 1022, or the device in which the base station 1021 and the server 1022 are integrated is collectively referred to as the second node 102 and will not be repeated hereinafter.

[0026] The physical model, system architecture, or scenario of the communication system described in the embodiments of the present disclosure is for more clearly explaining the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and is not limited to the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art will understand that with the evolution of the network architecture and the emergence of new service scenarios, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure can also be similarly applied to similar technical problems.

[0027] As described in the background art, with the evolution of communication systems and the emergence of an increasing number of application needs, people's requirements in aspects such as communication latency, reliability, bandwidth, and access volume are becoming increasingly stringent. The large-scale commercial use of 5G and NR technologies has accelerated the transformation of the economic society towards digitalization, networking, and intelligentization, and is promoting the network to enter a new era of IoT (Internet of Things). Due to the application needs in aspects such as rapidly emerging smart cities, smart transportation, and smart industrial production, the development trends of differentiation of network device capabilities, diversification of network functions, and intelligentization of network management and control are continuously strengthened, further promoting the emergence of the 6th Generation Mobile Communication System (6G) of IoT. In typical application scenarios of 6G represented by smart cities, smart transportation, and smart homes, there are smart automation devices with highly differentiated capabilities. Communication needs in aspects such as ultra-low latency, ultra-high reliability, ultra-large bandwidth, and large-scale access are becoming increasingly stringent, and intelligent automation types of applications also require high-precision and high-resolution requirements for sensing capabilities. With the rapid increase in the number of wireless communication and sensing devices, the contradiction between the infinite increase in service needs and limited wireless resources and computing power is becoming increasingly prominent. On the other hand, to realize the 6G vision, it is necessary to rely on the help of closed-loop information flow processing that distributes environmental sensing information acquisition, information interaction and sharing, intelligent information processing, and control information (including control information of communication networks and control commands of application execution devices) layer by layer. In some technologies, it is becoming difficult for wireless network architectures and related technologies to meet the application needs that continuously emerge in the post-5G (5G and Beyond, B5G) / 6G era, and it is necessary to urgently research and develop new network architectures and enabling technologies suitable for efficient use of resources and differentiated application intelligence.

[0028] In the current communication system, when a terminal transmits a signal, it mainly selects one beam direction based on the information of all received beams and transmits the signal. For example, in a 5G NR system, the terminal receives a Synchronization Signal / Physical Broadcast Channel Block (SSB) from the base station. Since the SSB can be transmitted in a Multiple-Beam manner, that is, the SSB information can be transmitted in different beam directions. The terminal selects one beam direction corresponding to the SSB according to the received SSB, further selects a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) resource corresponding to the beam direction, transmits a Random Access Preamble on the PRACH resource, starts the random access process, and further transmits the signal.

[0029] However, in this method, since the optimal transmission configuration set cannot be selected during signal transmission, it becomes difficult to meet the constantly emerging application needs, resulting in low communication quality.

[0030] In contrast, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a signal transmission method, which includes the step of transmitting a first signal according to a transmission configuration set, where the transmission configuration set includes at least one type of transmission configuration, and the at least one transmission configuration includes time-domain resources and / or frequency-domain resources. Based on this, the first signal can be transmitted according to the optimal transmission configuration set, and thus the communication quality can be improved.

[0031] FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a signal transmission method according to some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 2, the signal transmission method includes S101.

[0032] S101. The first node transmits a first signal according to a transmission configuration set. Accordingly, the second node receives the first signal transmitted by the first node according to the transmission configuration set.

[0033] The transmission configuration set includes at least one type of transmission configuration. The transmission configuration includes configuration information such as at least time-domain resources and / or frequency-domain resources. It is understood that the transmission configuration may be called a transmission arrangement or resource transmission, etc., and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0034] In some embodiments, one type of transmission configuration corresponds to one type of transmission method, and the configuration information in the transmission configuration is the configuration information required to support the transmission method.

[0035] In some embodiments, the transmission configuration further includes a reference signal resource, a Discrete Fourier Transformation (DFT) vector, a signal multiplexing method, a transmit-side spatial filter, transmit-side coding, a codeword of the transmit-side coding, a transmit-side antenna port, a transmit-side antenna weight vector, a transmit-side antenna weight matrix, a receive-side spatial filter, receive-side coding, a codeword of the receive-side coding, a receive-side antenna port, a receive-side weight vector, a receive-side antenna weight matrix, an Angle Of Departure (AOD), a Zenith Angle Of Departure (ZOD), an Angle Of Arrival (AOA), a Zenith angle Of Arrival (ZOA), a vector or vector index composed of at least one of AOA, AOD, ZOD, and ZOA, and one or more items of configuration information of the codewords in the codebook. The reference signal resource includes one or more of the time-domain resource, frequency-domain resource, code-domain resource, and port information of the reference signal. The reference signal includes a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS). The signal multiplexing method includes one or more of spatial division multiplexing, time division multiplexing, and frequency division multiplexing.

[0036] In some embodiments, the transmission arrangement further includes arrangement information of one or more items among a transmission beam, a set of transmission beams, transmission beam index information, a set of transmission beam indexes, a pair of transmission beams, transmission beam number information, transmission beam direction information, a reception beam, a set of reception beams, reception beam index information, a set of reception beam indexes, a pair of reception beams, reception beam index information, reception beam number information, and reception beam direction information.

[0037] In some embodiments, the transmission arrangement further includes arrangement information of one or more items among a spatial filter, spatial reception parameters, and spatial transmission parameters. The spatial filter may be one or more items among a DFT vector, a pre-coded vector, a DFT matrix, a pre-coded matrix, a vector composed of a plurality of DFT linear combinations, and a vector composed of a plurality of pre-coded vector linear combinations.

[0038] It is understood that the content included in the above transmission arrangement is only an example. With the change of actual needs and the evolution of network architectures, the transmission arrangement may further include other possible content, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0039] In some embodiments, the set of transmission arrangements is determined by one or more items among a first functional module, arrangement information of downlink reference signals / channels, arrangement information of uplink reference signals / channels, arrangement information of downlink signals / channels, arrangement information of uplink signals / channels, measurement or detection information of downlink reference signals / channels, measurement or detection information of uplink reference signals / channels, measurement or detection information of uplink signals / channels, and measurement or detection information of downlink signals / channels.

[0040] The first functional module may be referred to as a learning module, an artificial intelligence (AI) module, a placement estimation module, a resource allocation module, etc., but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. As an example, the output information of the first functional module may include one or more types of transmission arrangements, and a transmission arrangement set is configured according to the one or more types of transmission arrangements.

[0041] Exemplarily, the transmission arrangement set may be determined by a method of inputting one or more items among the downlink reference signal / channel arrangement information, uplink reference signal / channel arrangement information, uplink signal / channel arrangement information, downlink signal / channel arrangement information, downlink reference signal / channel measurement or detection information, uplink reference signal / channel measurement or detection information, uplink signal / channel measurement or detection information, and downlink signal / channel measurement or detection information into the first functional module, obtaining one or more types of transmission arrangements output by the first functional module, and configuring at least one type of transmission arrangement among the one or more types of transmission arrangements as the transmission arrangement set.

[0042] As an example, the first functional module outputs a first transmission arrangement, a second transmission arrangement, and a third transmission arrangement. The arrangement information of the first transmission arrangement, the second transmission arrangement, and the third transmission arrangement all includes time domain resources and / or frequency domain resources, reference signal resources, and a first signal multiplexing method. One or more items among the first transmission arrangement, the second transmission arrangement, and the third transmission arrangement are used to configure the transmission arrangement set. For example, the first transmission arrangement and the second transmission arrangement may be configured as the transmission arrangement set. Also, for example, the first transmission arrangement, the second transmission arrangement, and the third transmission arrangement may be configured as the transmission arrangement set. Based on this, the determination of the transmission arrangement set can be realized.

[0043] In some other embodiments, the first node determines a transmission configuration set based on some other preset manner. The other preset manner includes one or more of receiving a transmission configuration set transmitted by the second node, presetting a transmission configuration set, and prestoring a transmission configuration set, a default configuration, or a default memory. Based on this, it is also possible to realize the determination of the transmission configuration set. For example, when the instruction information for indicating whether to enable the first functional module instructs not to enable the first functional module, the transmission configuration set is determined based on some other preset manner.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first signal includes, but is not limited to, one or more of an uplink synchronization signal, an uplink access signal, an uplink random access signal, an uplink channel quality measurement signal, and an uplink reference signal.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first signal includes, but is not limited to, one or more of a data signal, a service signal, a control signal, a reference signal, and a broadcast signal.

[0046] In some embodiments, S101 is implemented to transmit the first signal according to one or more types of transmission configurations in the transmission configuration set.

[0047] Exemplarily, when the transmission configuration set includes a first transmission configuration and a second transmission configuration, S101 may be implemented to transmit the first signal according to the first transmission configuration and / or transmit the first signal according to the second transmission configuration.

[0048] In some embodiments, S101 is implemented to select a third transmission configuration applied to the first signal from a set of transmission configurations based on the transmission configuration indication information, and transmit the first signal according to the third transmission configuration. The transmission configuration indication information is used to indicate the transmission configuration used by the first signal. In some examples, the transmission configuration indication information may be configured by the first node, or the transmission configuration indication information is obtained by the first node from the second node and configured by the second node.

[0049] In some embodiments, S101 is implemented such that the first node receives a second signal from the second node, the first node performs detection and / or demodulation on the second signal, and determines the transmission configuration of the first signal. In some examples, the second signal may include one or more of a downlink reference signal / channel, an uplink reference signal / channel, a downlink signal / channel, and an uplink signal / channel.

[0050] In some examples, for the first node to perform detection and / or demodulation on the second signal and determine the transmission configuration of the first signal, specifically, the first node performs detection and / or demodulation on the second signal, obtains the configuration information of the second signal and / or the measurement or detection information of the second signal, inputs the configuration information of the second signal and / or the measurement or detection information of the second signal into the first functional module, and obtains the transmission configuration of the first signal.

[0051] In some examples, the first signal and the second signal are quasi co-location (QCL), and the first node receives indication information from the second node for indicating that the first signal and the second signal are quasi co-located. As an example, when the error of one or more parameters among the Doppler spread, Doppler shift, delay spread, average delay, average gain, and spatial parameters (spatial Rx parameter and spatial parameter) of the first signal and the second signal is within a preset range, it is determined that the first signal and the second signal are quasi co-located. The spatial parameter may include spatial reception parameters such as the angle of arrival, spatial correlation of the received beam, average delay, and correlation of the time-frequency channel response. The correlation of the time-frequency channel response includes the phase information of the time-frequency channel response.

[0052] In this way, signals can be transmitted according to the optimal transmission arrangement set, and thus the communication quality can be improved.

[0053] To further understand the technical solution, the related arrangement of the first functional module will be described below.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first functional module is determined based on the arrangement information of the first functional module transmitted by the second node to the first node. Alternatively, the first functional module is pre-stored in the first node. Alternatively, the first functional module is obtained after the first node updates based on the second functional module. It is understood that this embodiment is not limited to the determination method of the first functional module.

[0055] The first function obtained after being updated based on the second functional module module Taking [Example] as an example, when recording the first functional module of the old version as the second functional module, after receiving the placement information or update information of the first functional module of the new version transmitted by the second node (for example, a base station or a server), the second functional module is updated to the first functional module of the new version. It is understood that the update information includes some or all of the placement information of the first functional module of the new version.

[0056] In some embodiments, the placement information of the first functional module includes one or more of the functions of the first functional module, the input information of the first functional module, the output information of the first functional module, the indication information for indicating whether to enable the first functional module, the identification information of the first functional module, the index information of the first functional module, the storage location information of the first functional module, the version information of the first functional module, the hardware placement information of the first functional module, and the software placement information of the first functional module.

[0057] The function of the first functional module is used to determine the transmission arrangement set. In some examples, the input information of the first functional module includes, but is not limited to, one or more of the placement information of the downlink reference signal / channel, the placement information of the uplink reference signal / channel, the placement information of the downlink signal / channel, the placement information of the uplink signal / channel, the measurement or detection information of the downlink reference signal / channel, the measurement or detection information of the uplink reference signal / channel, the measurement or detection information of the uplink signal / channel, and the measurement or detection information of the downlink signal / channel.

[0058] In some examples, the output information of the first functional module includes one or more types of transmission arrangements. For the content of the transmission arrangement, reference may be made to the above description and will not be repeated here.

[0059] In some examples, when the instruction information for instructing whether to enable the first functional module indicates to enable the first functional module, the first functional module is activated, and a transmission arrangement set is determined based on the first functional module. For the specific implementation of determining the transmission arrangement set based on the first functional module, reference may be made to the above embodiments and their possible implementation manners.

[0060] In some examples, the identification information of the first functional module is used to identify the identity (ID) of the first functional module.

[0061] In some examples, the index information of the first functional module is used to indicate the first functional module position index.

[0062] In some examples, the hardware arrangement information of the first functional module includes arrangement information corresponding to the hardware devices required for the first functional module, such as a processor, an arithmetic unit, a controller, a memory, an input device, and an output device. The present disclosure is not limited to the hardware devices required for the first functional module.

[0063] In some examples, the software arrangement information of the first functional module includes arrangement information corresponding to the software required for the first functional module (for example, software for assisting in the generation of the first functional module, etc.). It is understood that the software required for the first functional module and the arrangement information corresponding to the software only need to support the normal operation of the above hardware devices, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0064] In some embodiments, the arrangement information of the first functional module is determined according to the type of the first node. It is understood that due to differences in the performance and coding method of the first node, different types of arrangement information of the first functional module may be set based on different types of the first node.

[0065] In some embodiments, the placement information of the first functional module is determined according to the type of the first functional module. In some examples, the first functional module includes at least two types.

[0066] For example, the type of the first functional module includes a first type or a second type. The first functional module of the first type is the first functional module that the second node places on the first node. The functional module of the second type is the first functional module obtained by the first node generating or updating. As an example, based on different types of the first functional module, placement information of different types of the first functional module is set.

[0067] Since the generation methods of the first functional module of the first type and the first functional module of the second type described above are different, the corresponding placement information of the first functional module may differ in coding methods and the like. As a result, it is understood that placement information of different types of the first functional module may be set according to the type of the first functional module.

[0068] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, the method further includes S201 to S202.

[0069] S201 (as an example), the first node sends first request information to the second node, and correspondingly, the second node receives the first request information from the first node.

[0070] The first request information is used to request the placement information of the first functional module. In some embodiments, the first request information carries one or more items of the terminal identifier of the first node, the type of the first node, and the type of the first functional module, whereby the second node may place the placement information of the first functional module applied to the first node.

[0071] In some embodiments, S201 is specifically implemented to send the first request information to the second node when the first condition is met. The first condition includes one or more of the following: the first node has received an instruction to deploy a transmission arrangement set, the first node does not include a first functional module, the service type of the first node changes, the wireless environment information of the first node changes, the channel quality of the first node changes, and the version information of the first functional module included in the first node is lower than the version information of the first functional module in the second node.

[0072] S202. The second node sends the deployment information of the first functional module to the first node, and accordingly, the first node receives the deployment information of the first functional module from the second node.

[0073] In some embodiments, the second node sending the deployment information of the first functional module to the first node is specifically implemented as follows: after the second node receives the first request information, it arranges or selects the deployment information of the first functional module based on one or more of the terminal identifier of the first node, the type of the first node, and the type of the first functional module, and then sends the deployment information of the first functional module to the first node.

[0074] It is understood that S201 is an exemplary step. If the second node does not receive the first request information, it may actively send the deployment information of the first functional module to the first node.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second node sending the deployment information of the first functional module to the first node is specifically implemented such that when the second condition is met, the second node sends the deployment information of the first functional module to the first node. The second condition is that the second node has received the first request information from the first node, and the first request information is used to request the placement information of the first functional module, detects a change in the service type of the first node, detects a change in the radio environment information of the first node, or detects a change in the radio channel quality measurement information of the first node, and includes one or more of these items.

[0076] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, after S101, the method further includes S301.

[0077] S301. The second node transmits the update information of the first functional module to the first node, and in response, the first node receives the update information of the first functional module from the second node.

[0078] The update information of the first functional module is used to update the first functional module.

[0079] In some embodiments, the update information of the first functional module is determined based on the first signal. Exemplarily, the update information of the first functional module is arranged by the second node based on the reception performance of the first signal. Based on this, feedback from the receiving side (e.g., the second node) can be realized, and the first functional module on the first node side can be optimized, so that the transmission arrangement set output by the updated first functional module can provide better signal performance when transmitting signals.

[0080] In some embodiments, the embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a functional module placement method, which is applicable to the above-mentioned first functional module but not limited to the first functional module. As shown in FIG. 5, the functional module placement method includes S401 to S402.

[0081] S401. Obtain the type of the functional module. In some embodiments, the types of functional modules include at least two types. Exemplarily, the types of functional modules include a first type and a second type. As an example, the functional module of the first type is a functional module that a second node (such as a base station or a server, etc.) arranges in the first node. The functional module of the second type is a functional module obtained by the first node (such as a terminal device) generating or updating.

[0082] In some embodiments, S401 is specifically implemented by obtaining information for indicating the type of the functional module and determining the type of the functional module according to the information for indicating the type of the functional module.

[0083] As an example, the information for indicating the type of the above functional module is generated by the first node. As another example, the information for indicating the type of the above functional module is generated by the second node.

[0084] S402, determine the identification information of the functional module according to the type of the functional module. In some embodiments, when the type of the functional module is the first type, the identification information of the functional module uniquely identifies the functional module among one or more second nodes.

[0085] In some embodiments, when the type of the functional module is the second type, the identification information of the functional module uniquely identifies the functional module among one or more second nodes.

[0086] As an example, the identification information of the functional module uniquely identifies the functional module in all base stations and / or all servers. As an example, the identification information of the functional module may uniquely identify the functional module only within one base station and / or server. As another example, the identification information of the same functional module may identify different functional modules in different base stations or different servers. It is understood that the identification information of the functional module only needs to guarantee unique identification of the functional module in one or more second nodes, such as one base station, one server, or an integrated device of one base station and server, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0087] Similarly, when the type of the functional module is the first type, the identification information of the functional module uniquely identifies the functional module in one or more first nodes.

[0088] Similarly, when the type of the functional module is the second type, the identification information of the functional module uniquely identifies the functional module in one or more first nodes.

[0089] The identification information of the functional module may uniquely identify the functional module within one first node (for example, a terminal), and the identification information of the same functional module may identify the same or different functional modules in different first nodes. It is understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0090] In some embodiments, the identification information of the first type of functional module and the identification information of the second type of functional module have different lengths.

[0091] As an example, the length of the identification information of the first type of functional module is greater than the length of the identification information of the second type of functional module. Since the first type of functional module is a functional module that the second node (for example, a base station or a server, etc.) arranges for the first node, and one second node is usually connected to one or more first nodes, it may be necessary to send the arrangement information of the functional module to a plurality of first nodes. As a result, because longer identification information is required, it is understood that it indicates to which first node the arrangement information of the corresponding functional module is sent. Since the second type of functional module is a functional module obtained by the first node (for example, a terminal device) generating or updating, it is only necessary to distinguish the functional modules in one first node. Thus, the identification information of the first type of functional module may be identified using shorter identification information.

[0092] In some embodiments, the identification information of the first type of functional module is obtained from a first identification information set.

[0093] In some embodiments, the first identification information set is a preset identification information set. In some embodiments, the length of each piece of identification information in the first identification information set is the same, whereby the first node reads the identification information of the functional module.

[0094] In some embodiments, the identification information of the first type of functional module is arranged by the second node or arranged based on a default rule.

[0095] In some embodiments, the identification information of the second type of functional module is obtained from the first identification information set. For the first identification information set, reference may be made to the above description, but it is not limited herein.

[0096] In some embodiments, when the number of pieces of identification information in the first identification information set is greater than the number of the first type of functional modules, the identification information of the second type of functional module is obtained from the first identification information set.

[0097] In some other embodiments, when the number of pieces of identification information in the first set of identification information is greater than the total number of the first type of functional modules and the second type of functional modules, the identification information of the second type of functional modules is obtained from the first set of identification information.

[0098] In some embodiments, the length of the identification information of the second type of functional modules is related to the number of the second type of functional modules.

[0099] Exemplarily, when the number of the second type of functional modules supported by the first node is N and N is a positive integer, the length K of the identification information satisfies the relationship shown in the following formula (1). (Formula (1))

[0100] [Number]

[0101] In the above formula, K is the length of the identification information, N is the number of the second type of functional modules supported by the first node, and ceil() is the ceiling function.

[0102] In some embodiments, the second node prestores or updates the related information of the second type of functional modules supported by each first node. Further, based on the identification information of the second type of functional modules transmitted by the received first node, the functional modules reported by the first node are determined.

[0103] Since the second type of functional module is a functional module generated or updated on the first node (e.g., a terminal) side, the second node may not know the identification information of the second type of functional module. It is understood that when it is received that the identification information of the functional modules transmitted by a plurality of first nodes is the same, there may be a misjudgment phenomenon. However, when the second node has previously stored or updated the related information of the second type of functional module supported by each first node, according to the received identification information of the second type of functional module, the detailed content of the functional module reported by each first node can be retrieved from the stored related information, thereby avoiding the misjudgment phenomenon caused by a plurality of first nodes reporting the same identification information.

[0104] In some embodiments, to implement the related activation or deactivation of a functional module, embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a functional module arrangement method. As shown in FIG. 6, the functional module arrangement method includes S501 to S502.

[0105] S501, the second node transmits instruction information for instructing the first node to activate or deactivate a third functional module. Accordingly, the first node receives the instruction information for instructing the activation or deactivation of the third functional module from the second node.

[0106] S502, based on the instruction information, the first node performs an activation or deactivation operation on the third functional module and a fourth functional module having a related relationship with the third functional module.

[0107] In some embodiments, the fourth functional module is one or more functional modules having a related relationship with the third functional module. Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the fourth functional module quantity It is not limited thereto. The association relationship is arranged by the second node, or the association relationship is arranged by the first node, or the association relationship is arranged based on default rules.

[0108] In some embodiments, a plurality of functional modules having an association relationship may constitute one set of functional modules. Alternatively, there is an association relationship between different functional modules belonging to the same set of functional modules. Exemplarily, the third functional module and the fourth functional module belong to the same set of functional modules. The set of functional modules is arranged by the second node, or the set of functional modules is arranged by the first node, or the set of functional modules is arranged based on default rules.

[0109] In some embodiments, there is an association relationship between the third functional module and the fourth functional module, and it is considered that the third functional module needs to operate in cooperation with the fourth functional module. For example, the third functional module and the fourth functional module are used to process the same task.

[0110] Exemplarily, when the first node receives instruction information for instructing deactivation of the third functional module, the first node deactivates the third functional module and the fourth functional module. Alternatively, when the first node receives instruction information for instructing activation of the third functional module, the first node activates the third functional module and the fourth functional module.

[0111] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when only instruction information for instructing activation or deactivation of the third functional module is received, based on less instruction information, corresponding activation or deactivation operations may be completed for the fourth functional module having an association relationship with the third functional module, improving information transmission efficiency.

[0112] The above has mainly described the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure from the perspective of methods. The following further shows a signal transmission device, and the signal transmission device is used to execute the signal transmission method in any of the above embodiments and its possible implementation manners.

For example, each function module may be divided corresponding to each function, or two or more functions may be integrated into one function module.
