[0022] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to various mobile communication networks such as New Radio (NR) mobile communication networks adopting 5th generation mobile communication technology (5G), future mobile communication networks, or multi-communication convergence systems, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0023] The network architecture of a mobile communication network (including, but not limited to, 3G, 4G, 5G, and future mobile communication networks) in the embodiments of the present disclosure may include a network side device (e.g., including, but not limited to, a base station) and a receiving side device (e.g., including, but not limited to, a terminal). It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first node (which may also be referred to as a first communication node device) may be the receiving side device, and the second node (which may also be referred to as a second communication node device) may be the network side device, or the first node may be the network side device and the second node may be the receiving side device. Alternatively, in device-to-device communication, both the first node and the second node may be a base station or a terminal.

[0024] 1 shows a schematic diagram of a communication system according to some embodiments, in which the network side device is a base station and the receiving side device is a terminal. The communication system may include a base station 10 and one or more terminals 11, and the base station 10 may be communicatively connected to the one or more terminals 11.

[0025] The base station 10 may be used to implement functions such as terminal resource scheduling, radio resource management, radio access control, etc. For example, the base station may be any of the following nodes: a small base station, a radio access point, a transmission receive point (TRP), a transmission point (TP), and some other access nodes.

[0026] The terminal 11 may also be referred to as a terminal device, a user device, a mobile station, a mobile terminal, etc. For example, the terminal may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transmission and reception capabilities, a virtual reality terminal, an augmented reality terminal, a wireless terminal in industrial control, a wireless terminal in autonomous driving, a wireless terminal in remote surgery, a wireless terminal in transportation safety, a wireless terminal in smart cities, a wireless terminal in smart homes, etc. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the device form adopted by the terminal.

[0027] It should be noted that Figure 1 is merely an exemplary frame diagram, and the number of devices included in Figure 1 and the names of each device are not limited, and in addition to the devices shown in Figure 1, the communication system may also include other devices such as core network devices.

[0028] The application scenarios of the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited. The system architectures and business scenarios described in the embodiments of the present disclosure are intended to more clearly explain the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure and do not constitute limitations on the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. As those skilled in the art will appreciate, with the evolution of network architectures and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be equally applied to similar technical problems.

[0029] An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: Therefore, execute As shown in Figure 2, the physical channel processing method may include the following steps:

[0030] S101, a receiving end obtains scheduling information of multiple physical channels.

[0031] In some embodiments, the receiving end may be a first type communication node. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the communication nodes may be divided into first type communication nodes and second type communication nodes. The processing bandwidth of the physical channel supported by the first type communication node is smaller than the processing bandwidth of the physical channel supported by the second type communication node.

[0032] For example, the first type of communication node supports a processing bandwidth of 5 MHz or less, and the second type of communication node supports a processing bandwidth of more than 5 MHz.

[0033] Also, for example, the processing bandwidth of a physical channel of a first type communication node at a subcarrier spacing of 15 KHz is 25 physical resource blocks (PRBs), and the processing bandwidth of a physical channel of a second type communication node at a subcarrier spacing of 15 KHz is greater than 25 physical resource blocks.

[0034] For example, the processing bandwidth of a physical channel of a first type communication node at a subcarrier spacing of 30 KHz is 12 or 11 physical resource blocks, and the processing bandwidth of a physical channel of a second type communication node at a subcarrier spacing of 30 KHz is greater than 12 or 11 physical resource blocks.

[0035] In one example, the communication node may be a base station or a terminal, but is not limited thereto.

[0036] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned multiple physical channels may come from the same transmitting end, or the multiple physical channels may come from different transmitting ends, but this is not a limitation.

[0037] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned multiple physical channels have collisions in the time domain.

[0038] For example, if the plurality of physical channels includes a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the first physical channel and the second physical channel are transmitted in the same slot, it is determined that a collision exists between the first physical channel and the second physical channel in the time domain.

[0039] As another example, if the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the processing time length of the first physical channel overlaps with the transmission time length of the second physical channel, it is determined that a collision exists between the first physical channel and the second physical channel in the time domain.

[0040] For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the transmission start symbol of the second physical channel is symbol L0 and the end symbol is symbol L1, and the transmission start symbol of the first physical channel is symbol L2 and the end symbol is symbol L3. If the bandwidth of the first physical channel is larger than the target bandwidth, the start symbol of the first processing time length is the first symbol following symbol L3, and the end symbol is symbol L4. Referring to FIG. 3, if the start symbol L0 of the second physical channel is later than the end symbol L3 of the first physical channel, the start symbol L0 of the second physical channel is earlier than or equal to the reference symbol L4, and the start symbol L0 of the second physical channel and the end symbol L3 of the first physical channel are not in the same slot, the processing time length of the first physical channel and the transmission time length of the second physical channel overlap, and it is determined that there is a collision between the first physical channel and the second physical channel in the time domain. The first processing time length may be the processing time length for one physical channel by a first-type communication node.

[0041] In some embodiments, the target bandwidth may be the maximum operational bandwidth for the physical channel that the communication node supports. Illustratively, the target bandwidth is 25 PRBs with a subcarrier spacing of 15 KHz, or 11 or 12 PRBs with a subcarrier spacing of 30 KHz.

[0042] As another example, if the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the transmission time or processing time of the first physical channel overlaps with the transmission time of the second physical channel, it is determined that a collision exists between the first physical channel and the second physical channel in the time domain.

[0043] For example, as shown in Figure 4, the transmission start symbol of the second physical channel is symbol L0 and the end symbol is symbol L1, and the transmission start symbol of the first physical channel is symbol L2 and the end symbol is symbol L3. Referring to Figure 4, if the start symbol L0 of the second physical channel is earlier than or equal to the reference symbol L4 and the end symbol L1 of the second physical channel is later than or equal to the start symbol L2 of the first physical channel, the transmission time of the first physical channel and the transmission time of the second physical channel overlap, and it is determined that there is a collision between the first physical channel and the second physical channel in the time domain.

[0044] In some embodiments, Each of the multiple physical channels The scheduling information of the physical channel includes at least one of a time domain location, a bandwidth, and a channel type of the physical channel.

[0045] In some embodiments, the time domain location of a physical channel may be understood as the symbol that the physical channel occupies in the time domain. By way of example, the time domain location of a physical channel may indicate the starting symbol and duration of the physical channel. By way of example, the symbol may be an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol.

[0046] In some embodiments, the channel type includes at least one of a system information block (SIB), a terminal dedicated physical shared channel, a physical shared channel for polling, a message 4 (Msg4), and a random access response (RAR).

[0047] The system information blocks are used to carry system information. Illustratively, the system information blocks include System Information Block 1 (SIB1) through System Information Block P (SIBP), where P is greater than 1. SIB1 contains availability or scheduling information about other SIBs. SIB6 contains primary notifications for the earthquake and tsunami warning system (ETWS). SIB7 contains secondary notifications for the ETWS. SIB8 contains warning notifications for the commercial mobile alert system (CMAS).

[0048] A physical shared channel dedicated to a terminal is used to transmit uplink or downlink data to a single terminal.

[0049] The physical shared channel for polling is used to transmit data related to the intended polling process.

[0050] Message 4 is downlink information sent from the base station to the terminal during the random access process.

[0051] The random access response is used to carry a random access response message.

[0052] Bandwidth is the frequency domain width of a physical channel per unit time. The bandwidth of a physical channel may be expressed in Hertz or the number of physical resource blocks occupied by the physical channel. For example, if a physical channel includes at least two PDSCHs, the bandwidth of the physical channel is the sum of the bandwidths of the at least two PDSCHs.

[0053] The above-mentioned physical shared channel may be a physical uplink shared channel or a physical downlink shared channel, but is not limited thereto.

[0054] S102, the receiving end determines a physical channel to be processed from the plurality of physical channels according to the scheduling information of the plurality of physical channels.

[0055] In some embodiments, the physical channel to be processed may be understood as a physical channel that needs to be processed preferentially among a plurality of physical channels, or as a physical channel that is to be processed first among a plurality of physical channels.

[0056] In some embodiments, the importance of the information carried by the physical channel being processed may be greater than the importance of the information carried by other physical channels among the plurality of physical channels other than the physical channel being processed.

[0057] In some embodiments, the number of physical channels to be processed may be one or more, but is not limited thereto.

[0058] In some embodiments, after determining the physical channel to be processed, the receiving end may begin processing on the physical channel to be processed.

[0059] In some embodiments, for non-processed physical channels of the plurality of physical channels, the receiving end may discard these non-processed physical channels.

[0060] In some embodiments, for non-processed physical channels among the plurality of physical channels, the receiving end may process these non-processed physical channels after completing processing of the processed physical channels.

[0061] Taking the multiple physical channels as an example, where the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, the receiving end may adopt the following processing scheme.

[0062] Scheme 1: The receiving end may process the first physical channel first, and then process the second physical channel.

[0063] Method 2: The receiving end may process the second physical channel first, and then process the first physical channel.

[0064] Scheme 3: The receiving end may process the first physical channel and abandon the second physical channel.

[0065] Solution 4: The receiving end may process the second physical channel and abandon the processing of the first physical channel.

[0066] It should be understood that the receiving end can determine the processing method to be adopted based on the scheduling information of the first physical channel and the scheduling information of the second physical channel.

[0067] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, if the receiving end cannot process multiple physical channels simultaneously, the receiving end will select an appropriate physical channel to be processed from the multiple physical channels based on the scheduling information of the multiple physical channels, and prioritize processing of the physical channel to be processed, so that the receiving end can timely obtain important information carried by the physical channel to be processed, thereby ensuring normal communication of the communication system.

[0068] The following describes an exemplary implementation of how a receiving end determines a target physical channel from a plurality of physical channels when the time domain positions of the plurality of physical channels are different.

[0069] Implementation method 1: When multiple physical channels are transmitted within the same slot, the receiving end determines the processing order of the multiple physical channels based on the bandwidth or channel type of the multiple physical channels, and then determines the physical channel to be processed from the multiple physical channels based on the processing order of the multiple physical channels.

[0070] In some embodiments, the physical channel to be processed may include the first N physical channels in the processing order of the plurality of physical channels, where N is a positive integer. The value of N mainly takes into consideration the processing capability of the receiving end and the bandwidth of the physical channels. Exemplarily, the physical channel to be processed may be the first physical channel in the processing order of the plurality of physical channels.

[0071] For example, the processing order of the multiple physical channels is determined in a monotonically increasing or monotonically decreasing order based on the bandwidth of the multiple physical channels.

[0072] For example, the multiple physical channels include channel #1, channel #2, and channel #3, where channel #1 has a bandwidth of 11 PRBs, channel #2 has a bandwidth of 20 PRBs, and channel #3 has a bandwidth of 12 PRBs. If the processing order of the multiple physical channels is determined in the order of monotonically increasing bandwidths of the multiple physical channels, the processing order of the above multiple physical channels is: channel #1, channel #3, channel #2.

[0073] Also, for example, the multiple physical channels include channel #1, channel #2, and channel #3, where channel #1 has a bandwidth of 11 PRBs, channel #2 has a bandwidth of 20 PRBs, and channel #3 has a bandwidth of 12 PRBs. When the processing order of the multiple physical channels is determined in the order of monotonically decreasing bandwidths of the multiple physical channels, the processing order of the above multiple physical channels is: channel #2, channel #3, channel #1.

[0074] As another example, when the processing order of the multiple physical channels is determined based on the channel types of the multiple physical channels, the processing order of the multiple physical channels satisfies at least one of the following rules:

[0075] Rule 1: A physical shared channel dedicated to a terminal takes priority over a system information block in the processing order.

[0076] Rule 2: The physical shared channel for polling takes priority over the system information block in the processing order.

[0077] Rule 3, Message 4 takes precedence over the System Information Block in the processing order.

[0078] Rule 4: Random Access Responses take precedence over System Information Blocks in the processing order.

[0079] It should be understood that, in general, the information carried by the system information block is updated relatively infrequently, so the receiving end generally already stores the information carried by the system information block, and therefore, the receiving end does not need to urgently obtain the information in the system information block. In addition, even if the system information block carries updated information, the transmitting end may periodically transmit the system information block, so the receiving end can also obtain the updated information from the next system information block, and therefore, the receiving end does not need to urgently process the current system information block. For the above reasons, the system information block may be located after other information in the processing order.

[0080] As another example, if the receiving end has the capability to receive alarm information and the processing order of the multiple physical channels is determined based on the channel types of the multiple physical channels, the processing order of the multiple physical channels satisfies at least one of the following rules:

[0081] Rule 5: When the short message received by the receiving end indicates that the receiving end receives alarm information, system information block 1 takes priority in the processing order over any one of the physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal, the physical shared channel for polling, message 4, and the random access response.

[0082] Rule 6, System Information Block 6, System Information Block 7, and System Information Block 8 take precedence in the processing order over any one of the terminal-dedicated physical shared channel, the physical shared channel for polling, Message 4, and the random access response.

[0083] In some embodiments, the warning information may include an Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) message or a Commercial Mobile Alert System (CMAS) message.

[0084] It should be understood that in the event of an earthquake, tsunami or other disaster, the receiving end can timely obtain disaster-related information and alert users in accordance with Rules 5 and 6, thereby ensuring the safety of users' lives and property.

[0085] In some embodiments, when determining the processing order of the multiple physical channels based on the channel types of the multiple physical channels, rules 5 and 6 may be considered first, and then rules 1 to 4 may be considered.

[0086] For example, if the plurality of physical channels includes a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the first physical channel includes a system information block and the second physical channel includes a UE-specific PDSCH, the second physical channel is processed first, followed by the first physical channel.

[0087] For example, if the plurality of physical channels includes a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the first physical channel includes an SIB and the second physical channel includes a polling PDSCH, the second physical channel is processed first, followed by the first physical channel.

[0088] For example, if the plurality of physical channels includes a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the first physical channel includes an SIB and the second physical channel includes an RAR, the second physical channel is processed first, followed by the first physical channel.

[0089] For example, if the plurality of physical channels includes a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the first physical channel includes an SIB and the second physical channel includes an Msg4, the second physical channel is processed first, followed by the first physical channel.

[0090] Based on this, when multiple physical channels are transmitted within the same slot, they are sorted based on their bandwidths or channel types, and then the multiple physical channels are processed sequentially and in an orderly manner according to the sorting results.

[0091] If multiple physical channels are transmitted in the same slot and the total bandwidth is greater than the bandwidth that the communication node can handle, the processing of some physical channels may be abandoned based on the rearrangement results, thereby avoiding backlogs during processing of the physical channels and improving the processing efficiency of the physical channels.

[0092] Implementation method 2: When the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the bandwidth of the first physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, if the start symbol of the second physical channel is later than the end symbol of the first physical channel, the start symbol of the second physical channel is earlier than or equal to the reference symbol, and the start symbol of the second physical channel and the end symbol of the first physical channel are not in the same slot, it is determined to process the first physical channel or to discard the second physical channel.

[0093] The reference symbol is the Kth symbol after the end symbol of the first physical channel, and the value of K is determined based on the first processing time length of the first physical channel and the second processing time length of the first physical channel, and K is a positive integer.

[0094] For example, assuming that the end symbol L3 of the first physical channel is the 10th symbol, the first processing time length N is 20 symbols, and the second processing time length N is 8 symbols, the value of K is equal to 12. Therefore, the reference symbol L4 is the 12th symbol after the 10th symbol, that is, the reference symbol L4 is the 22nd symbol.

[0095] The first processing time length of the physical channel is the time length for a first type of communication node to process the physical channel, and the second processing time length of the physical channel is the time length for a second type of communication node to process the physical channel. In 5G New Radio (NR) technology, the second processing time length of the physical channel can be determined based on several techniques, which will not be described in detail herein.

[0096] Implementation method 3: When the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the bandwidth of the first physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, if the start symbol of the second physical channel is later than the end symbol of the first physical channel, and the start symbol of the second physical channel is earlier than or equal to the reference symbol, and the start symbol of the second physical channel and the end symbol of the first physical channel are not in the same slot, determine the physical channel to be processed or the physical channel to be discarded from the first physical channel and the second physical channel based on the channel type of the first physical channel and the channel type of the second physical channel.

[0097] Implementation method 4: When the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the bandwidth of the first physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, if the start symbol of the second physical channel is earlier than or equal to the reference symbol and the end symbol of the second physical channel is later than or equal to the start symbol of the first physical channel, determine the physical channel to be processed or the physical channel to be discarded from the first physical channel and the second physical channel according to the channel type of the first physical channel and the channel type of the second physical channel.

[0098] In this way, a detailed implementation method is preset to determine which of the first and second physical channels should be preferentially processed based on the channel type of the first and second physical channels, thereby avoiding data loss due to collisions between processes on multiple physical channels.

[0099] In some embodiments, determining a physical channel to be processed or a physical channel to be discarded from the first physical channel and the second physical channel based on a channel type of the first physical channel and a channel type of the second physical channel may include, for example: The method may be implemented to determine to process the second physical channel or to abandon the first physical channel when the first physical channel includes a system information block and the second physical channel includes any one of a physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal, a physical shared channel for polling, a message 4, and a random access response; or The method may be implemented to determine to process the first physical channel or to abandon the second physical channel when the first physical channel includes a physical shared channel for polling and the second physical channel includes a physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal or a system information block; or If the first physical channel includes a random access response or message 4 and the second physical channel includes a physical shared channel or a system information block dedicated to the terminal, the implementation may decide to process the first physical channel or decide to abandon the second physical channel.

[0100] In some embodiments, the receiving end has the capability of receiving alarm information, and determining a physical channel to be processed or a physical channel to be discarded from the first physical channel and the second physical channel based on the channel type of the first physical channel and the channel type of the second physical channel can be, for example: When the short message received by the receiving end indicates that the receiving end receives alarm information, if the first physical channel includes a system information block 1 and the second physical channel includes any one of a physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal, a physical shared channel for polling, a message 4, and a random access response, the receiving end may determine to prioritize processing the first physical channel or determine to abandon the second physical channel; or When the short message received by the receiving end indicates that the receiving end receives alarm information, if the first physical channel includes any one of a physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal, a physical shared channel for polling, a message 4, and a random access response, and the second physical channel includes a system information block 1, the receiving end may determine to prioritize processing the second physical channel or determine to abandon the first physical channel; or The method may be implemented to determine to prioritize processing of the first physical channel or to abandon the second physical channel when the first physical channel includes system information block 6, system information block 7, or system information block 8, and the second physical channel includes any one of a physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal, a physical shared channel for polling, message 4, and a random access response; or If the first physical channel includes any one of a physical shared channel dedicated to the terminal, a physical shared channel for polling, message 4, and a random access response, and the second physical channel includes system information block 6, system information block 7, or system information block 8, it may be implemented to decide to process the second physical channel preferentially or to decide to abandon the first physical channel.

[0101] Implementation method 5: When the multiple physical channels include a first physical channel and a second physical channel, and the bandwidth of the first physical channel is less than or equal to the target bandwidth, when the processing time of the first physical channel overlaps with the transmission time of the second physical channel, it is determined to process the first physical channel first, and then process the second physical channel (i.e., the processing of the second physical channel does not need to be abandoned).

[0102] When the receiving end is a first type communication node and the bandwidth of the first physical channel is equal to or less than the target bandwidth, the processing time of the first physical channel may be a time period starting from the end symbol of the first physical channel and having a length equal to the first processing time length.

[0103] When the bandwidth of the first physical channel is equal to or less than the target bandwidth, the first processing time length and the second processing time length of the first physical channel are the same. As described above, referring to FIG. 3, the end symbol L3 and the reference symbol L4 of the first physical channel are the same symbol.

[0104] FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a physical channel processing method according to some embodiments, Therefore, execute As shown in Figure 5, the physical channel processing method may include S201 and S202.

[0105] S201, the transmitting end transmits scheduling information of a physical channel.

[0106] The transmitting end may be a terminal device, a user device, a mobile station, a mobile terminal, etc. Each of the multiple physical channels The scheduling information of the physical channel includes at least one of the time domain location, bandwidth, and channel type of the physical channel.

[0107] S202, the transmitting end transmits the physical channel according to the scheduling information.

[0108] The implementation manner and embodiments of S201 and S202 can refer to the implementation manner and embodiments of the physical channel processing method of the receiving end described above.

[0109] The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a method for determining a first processing time length, which can be applied to the above-mentioned receiving end or transmitting end, and includes the following steps:

[0110] S301, determining a first processing time length of the physical channel based on at least one of a second processing time length of the physical channel, a bandwidth of the physical channel, the number of receiving antennas of a first type communication node, a subcarrier spacing, a coding rate, and upper layer parameters.

[0111] For example, the upper layer parameters are transmitted in SIB1 or SIB.

[0112] In some embodiments, the first processing time period may be determined by Method 1 or Method 2.

[0113] Method 1: The first processing time length is determined by the product of the second processing time length and an adjustment coefficient, and the adjustment coefficient is determined based on the bandwidth of the physical channel and the target bandwidth.

[0114] In some embodiments, the adjustment factor is: Physical Channel Bandwidth the goal The adjustment factor is calculated by dividing the bandwidth by the quotient and rounding it up. In other words, the adjustment factor is expressed by the following formula 1.

[0115] [Formula 1]

number

[0116] For example, the first processing time length is expressed by the following formula 2.

[0117] [Formula 2]

number

[0118] Method 2: The first processing time length is equal to the sum of the second processing time length and the third processing time length. In one example, the first processing time length is expressed as N=M+t, where M is the second processing time length and the third processing time length t is equal to or greater than 0.

[0119] The third processing time length t is determined based on at least one of the bandwidth of the physical channel, the number of receiving antennas, the subcarrier spacing, the coding rate, and upper layer parameters.

[0120] In some embodiments, if the bandwidth of the physical channel is less than or equal to the target bandwidth, the third processing time period is equal to zero.

[0121] In some embodiments, when the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, the third processing time length is determined by the product of a preset time length and an adjustment factor, and the adjustment factor is determined based on the bandwidth of the physical channel and the target bandwidth.

[0122] For example, in the following Equation 3, t represents the third processing time length, and a represents the preset time length. For example, the value of the preset time length may be a fixed value or may be indicated by an upper layer parameter.

[0123] [Formula 3]

number

[0124] In some embodiments, if the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, the third processing time length is determined based on the bandwidth of the physical channel.

[0125] Illustratively, determining the third processing time length based on the bandwidth of the physical channel includes at least one of the following four determining manners:

[0126] Assume that the number of physical resource blocks occupied by the physical channel is A, and the number of physical resource blocks included in the target bandwidth is B.

[0127] Determination method 1: When A ≤ B, t = 0; when B < A ≤ C, t = t1. C is the number of physical resource blocks PRBs included in the bandwidth part (BWP), and t1 is a preset time length.

[0128] Determination method 2: When A ≤ 2B, t = 0; when 2B < A ≤ C, t = t1. C is the number of physical resource blocks PRBs included in the BWP, and t1 is a preset time length.

[0129] Determination method 3: When A ≤ B, t = 0; when B < A ≤ 2B, t = t1; when 2B < A ≤ C, t = t2. C is the number of physical resource blocks PRBs included in the BWP, and t1 and t2 are preset time lengths.

[0130] Determination method 4: When A ≤ B, t = 0; when B < A ≤ 2B, t = t1; when 2B < A ≤ 3B, t = t2; when 3B < A ≤ C, t = t3. C is the number of physical resource blocks PRBs included in the BWP, and t1, t, and t3 are preset time lengths.

[0131] In some embodiments, when the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, the third processing time length is determined based on the number of receiving antennas of the first type of communication node. Exemplarily, there is a positive correlation between the third processing time length and the number of receiving antennas.

[0132] In some embodiments, when the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, the third processing time length is determined based on the subcarrier spacing of the physical channel. For example, the third processing time length at a subcarrier spacing of 15KHz is different from that at a subcarrier spacing of 30KHz.

[0133] In some embodiments, when the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, the third processing time length is determined based on the coding rate of the physical channel. Illustratively, when the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth and the coding rate of the physical channel is equal to or less than a coding rate threshold, the third processing time length is equal to zero, or when the coding rate of the physical channel is greater than the coding rate threshold, the third processing time length is greater than zero.

[0134] In some embodiments, if the bandwidth of the physical channel is greater than the target bandwidth, the preset length of time is dictated by a higher layer parameter.

[0135] An embodiment of the present disclosure determines a reasonable first processing time length using various parameters, thereby enabling a first type of communication node to fully process a physical channel whose bandwidth is greater than the target bandwidth based on the first processing time length.

[0136] The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a physical channel resource mapping method, which can be applied to the above-mentioned receiving end or transmitting end, and as shown in FIG. 6, the method includes S401 and S402.

[0137] S401: determining at least two resource block groups RBG, where a first RBG and a second RBG of the at least two RBGs are separated by h RBGs, where h is 1 or more;

[0138] One resource block group (RBG) includes p physical resource blocks (PRBs), where p is equal to or greater than 1. For example, for a 20 MHz bandwidth with a subcarrier spacing of 15 KHz, p = 8 or 2, and for a 15 MHz bandwidth, p = 8 or 7. For a 20 MHz bandwidth with a subcarrier spacing of 30 KHz, p = 4 or 3, and for a 15 MHz bandwidth, p = 4 or 2.

[0139] In some embodiments, when there are h RBGs between the first and second RBGs, it means that the absolute value of the difference between the number of the first RBG and the number of the second RBG is equal to h + 1. For example, when there is one RBG between the first and second RBGs, it means that the absolute value of the difference between the number of the first and second RBGs is equal to 2. The RBG numbers correspond to the frequency domain positions where the RBGs are located.

[0140] In some embodiments, the number of the first RBG is indicated by a frequency domain resource assignment (FDRA) field in downlink control information (DCI).

[0141] S402, mapping a physical channel to the above-mentioned at least two RBGs.

[0142] The physical channel is a physical channel scheduled by the transmitting node to the first-type communication node, and may be a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), or other physical channel. The baseband processing bandwidth of the physical channel of the first-type communication node does not exceed the target PRB number. With a subcarrier spacing of 15 KHz, the target PRB number is equal to 25, and with a subcarrier spacing of 30 KHz, the target PRB number is equal to 12 or 11.

[0143] In some embodiments, the physical channel is mapped to the at least two RBGs based on predefined conditions, which include at least one of a transmission mode of the physical channel, an aggregation level of the physical channel, a cyclic prefix type of the subframe, a format of control information carried by the physical channel, and mapping scheme indication information.

[0144] In some embodiments, when a physical channel is transmitted discontinuously in the frequency domain, the physical channel is mapped to two RBGs that are spaced apart, and the span of the two RBGs in the frequency domain does not exceed the target PRB number.

[0145] For example, if two RBGs are determined for one physical channel, and the first RBG has number i and there is one RBG between the first and second RBGs, the second RBG is determined to have number (i+2). This physical channel is mapped to the RBG with number i and the RBG with number (i+2).

[0146] Based on this, when mapping a physical channel to multiple discontinuous RBGs in the frequency domain, instructions This allows the locations of other RBGs to be determined simply by specifying the location of one of the RBGs, thereby reducing the overhead of specifying resources without reducing the flexibility of resource allocation.
