Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications.

Background Art

[0002] Compared with conventional 3G and 4G systems, the 5G system can provide a wider bandwidth and a higher data rate, and can support more types of terminals and vertical services.

[0003] Therefore, in addition to the conventional telecommunications frequency spectrum, the 5G system is also deployed in a new frequency spectrum, and the frequency of the new frequency spectrum is significantly higher than the conventional telecommunications frequency spectrum used by 3G and 4G systems. For example, the 5G system can be deployed in the millimeter wave band (such as 28 GHz, 38 GHz, 60 GHz or higher).

[0004] According to the propagation law of radio signals, the higher the frequency of the carrier where it is located, the more serious the fading encountered by the signal during propagation. Therefore, in actual deployment, the 5G system, especially the 5G system deployed in the millimeter wave frequency band, requires more advanced cell coverage improvement technology than conventional 3G and 4G systems. Therefore, how to more effectively improve the cell coverage of the 5G system has become a problem to be solved.

[0005] Note that the introduction of the above background art is for clearly and completely explaining the technical solution of the present invention and for easy understanding by those skilled in the art. These technical solutions are not to be construed as well-known to those skilled in the art just because they are described in the background art of the present invention.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] To better address coverage issues in cellular mobile communication systems during deployment, employing RF relays (RF relays / repeaters) to amplify and forward communication signals between terminal and network equipment is a commonly used deployment method. RF relays are widely used in actual 3G and 4G system deployments. RF relays are typically devices that amplify and forward round-trip signals in the RF domain. In other words, RF relays are a type of non-regenerative relay node; they simply amplify and forward all signals they receive.

[0007] The inventors discovered the following: One viable solution to the coverage problems encountered during 5G system deployment is to enhance coverage by employing conventional RF transceivers. However, because the transceiver operation of conventional RF transceivers is not controlled by network equipment, its effect in amplifying and transmitting target signals may not be ideal, and it may cause significant interference to other equipment in the network, increasing system noise and interference levels and reducing network throughput. Specifically, taking antenna direction as an example, 5G systems employ more advanced and complex MIMO (Multi-Input Multiple-Output) technology compared to 2G, 3G, and 4G systems. In 5G systems, especially at relatively high carrier frequencies, directed antennas are fundamental components of network and terminal equipment, and beamforming technology-based signal transmission and reception are the basic signal transmission methods in 5G systems. The (analog) beam direction and width of network and terminal equipment can change dynamically due to factors such as changes in position (i.e., beam switching). However, conventional RF transceiver antennas cannot dynamically adjust their direction, and their beams are relatively wide. Therefore, the beam direction and beam width of their transmitting and receiving antennas cannot flexibly match the dynamic changes in the beam direction and width of the base station and terminal equipment. When such RF transceivers are configured in a 5G system, on the one hand, because the beam direction and beam width of their transmitting and receiving antennas cannot match the dynamic changes in the beam direction and width of the transmitting and receiving antennas of network equipment and terminal equipment, their performance / effect in amplifying / enhancing the target signal is not significant. On the other hand, because they employ a relatively wide transmitting beam, they may cause noticeable interference to other equipment (e.g., network equipment or terminal equipment) within a relatively wide range, potentially increasing the overall noise and interference level of the system and reducing network throughput.

[0008] 3GPP Rel-18 proposes a network-controlled repeater (NCR) scheme to enhance NR coverage, which is used to transfer signals between network devices and terminal devices. Because the NCR can communicate directly with network devices via a control link, the network devices can assist / control the NCR's transfer operations.

[0009] The inventors have discovered the following: The problem awaiting resolution is how to control NCR transfer operations using aperiodic instructions, and in particular, how to instruct aperiodic transfer resources.

[0010] In view of at least one of the above-mentioned problems, embodiments of the present invention provide an information transmission method, an information reception method, a transfer device, and network equipment. [Means for solving the problem]

[0038] Currently, when determining the time-domain resource corresponding to an access link beam, the introduction of a second time position and / or first time position is considered for the location of the reference point. Therefore, the issues awaiting resolution are how to determine the second time position and / or first time position and the associated subcarrier interval, and how to determine the location of the time-domain resource based on the second time position and / or first time position.

[0039] The following describes various embodiments of the present invention, accompanied by the drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative and do not limit the present invention.

[0040] <Example of the first side view> An information receiving method is provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and will be described from the perspective of the transferr.

[0041] Figure 2 shows an information receiving method in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 2, the method includes the following, namely, 201: The transceiver receives first and / or second and / or third configuration information relating to a first DCI format for controlling the transceiver, the first configuration information being used to set a time-domain resource list, and / or the second configuration information being used to set RNT for scrambling the first DCI format, and / or the third configuration information being used to set a search space for monitoring the first DCI format; and 202: The transceiver receives downlink control information adopting the first DCI format, and the second slot (location) where the first time-domain resource indicated by the downlink control information is located is with respect to the first time position and / or the second time position and / or the third time position, and / or the first parameter and / or the second parameter, and / or the first subcarrier interval and / or the second subcarrier interval and / or the third subcarrier interval.

For example, the execution order between each operation can be appropriately adjusted, or some operations can be appropriately increased or decreased. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate modifications based on the above description, without being limited to the description in Figure 2.

[0043] In some embodiments, the DCI comprises / may employ a first DCI formatted, which is used only for the transporter. The first DCI formatted or the DCI is used to carry (aperiodic or dynamic) beam indication or side control information, and / or to transmit or notify (aperiodic / dynamic) beam indication or side control information for an access link, and / or to indicate (aperiodic or dynamic) forwarding time resources or forwarding resources, and / or to indicate the on state of the transporter or the transporter's forwarding unit, and / or to indicate the on state of the access link and / or backhaul link, and / or to indicate (aperiodic or dynamic) the access link beam and / or time domain resources. The ON status indicates that the NCR-Fwd can (should) forward a signal, or can forward a signal on an access link and / or backhaul link, and the forwarding includes forwarding downlink signals transmitted by network equipment to terminal equipment and / or uplink signals transmitted by terminal equipment to network equipment. The first DCI format may be a newly introduced DCI format (e.g., DCI format 5_0), which is not used for scheduling PDSCH and / or PUSCH, and is unicast. However, embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto, and the DCI format may be an existing DCI format and / or for scheduling PDSCH and / or PUSCH, and / or is groupcast (multi-cast / broadcast).

[0044] In the embodiments of the present invention, “downlink control information of the first DCI formatted” or “downlink control information employing the first DCI formatted” or “DCI of the first DCI formatted” may be abbreviated as “first DCI formatted.” The same applies to other DCI formatteds.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first configuration information and / or the second and / or third configuration information may be carried by RRC signaling. The first configuration information relating to the first DCI format is used to configure a time-domain resource list, and the DCI of the first DCI format can indicate the time-domain resources to be forwarded by the time-domain resource list. The time-domain resource list may, but is not limited to, a list of aperiodic forwarding time resources for an NCR-Fwd access link. The first configuration information includes one or more of the following: first information for indicating a first value M; second information for adding and / or changing time-domain resources; third information for releasing time-domain resources; fourth information for indicating the subcarrier interval; fifth information for indicating the bit width of the first information area; sixth information for indicating the bit width of the second information area; and seventh information for indicating the load size of the first DCI format.The second and / or third information area is used to set up a time-domain resource list; that is, the second information (e.g., ncr-AperiodicFwdTimeResourceToAddModList-r18) can set up time-domain resources to be added / modified in the time-domain resource list, the third information is used to indicate time-domain resources to be released / removed (deleted) from the time-domain resources set up by the second information, the number of time-domain resources in the time-domain resource list can be determined based on the second and / or third information, the subcarrier interval indicated by the fourth information may also be the reference subcarrier interval of the time-domain resource, the fifth and sixth information is used to indicate the bit width of the first and second information areas, the bit width is at least with respect to the length of the time-domain resource list (the number to be set and / or the number of time-domain resources), the seventh information indicates the size of the load of the first DCI formatted, with respect to the bit width of each information area, i.e., with respect to the length of the time-domain resource list, and the first value M indicated by the first information is with respect to the number of the first and / or second information areas, as will be described in more detail later. Of these, the range of the bit width values ​​for the first information area is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, and the range of the bit width values ​​for the second information area is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} or {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}, the size of the (load) of the first DCI format is a maximum of 130 bits, and the value of the first value M is a maximum of 10, and the first setting information must be selected and set from the above range of values ​​when setting the above information. Note that if at least one of the above information is not set by the first setting information, the range of its value can also refer to the above example, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.

[0046] In some embodiments, time domain resources are interchangeable with transferred time domain resources or time domain resource settings or transferred time domain resource settings, indexes are interchangeable with IDs, and sets are interchangeable with lists.

[0047] In some embodiments, the second configuration information is used to set the first DCI format or the RNTI for scrambling the DCI (or the RNTI value for scrambling the PDCCHs that carry side control information). For example, the RNTI is NCR-RNTI, and the RNTI is used to scramble the CRC of the DCI. The second configuration information ncr-RNTI-r18 is represented using ASN.1 as follows:

[0048] [Table 1] In some embodiments, the third configuration information is used to define a search space for monitoring a first DCI format. For example, the third configuration information includes tenth information dci-FormatsNCR-r18, which instructs the NCR-MT to monitor the first DCI format (in the search space defined by the configuration information). Based on the third configuration information, the search space for monitoring the first DCI format is determined, and the DCI of the first DCI format is received in that search space. The third configuration information SearchSpace is represented using ASN.1 and is as follows:

[0049] [Table 2] In some embodiments, the transceiver (NCR-MT) can monitor the first DCI formatted in a common search space (CSS) and / or a UE-specific search space (USS), or it can be said that it can receive the DCI of the first DCI formatted. In other words, the search space configured by the third configuration information described above is either a common search space (CSS) or a UE-specific search space. When there are multiple third configuration information entries, the type of search space (CSS / USS) configured by different third configuration information entries may be the same or different.

[0050] In some embodiments, the first DCI format and / or the DCI may or may not include a first information area and a second information area, and when a time-domain resource list includes the setting of one time-domain resource, the DCI may not include a second information area, and the first time-domain resource indicated by the DCI is that one time-domain resource.

[0051] In some embodiments, the location of the second slot where the first time-domain resource is located, as indicated by the DCI (e.g., the second information domain), is relative to the first time position and / or the second time position and / or the third time position, and / or the first parameter and / or the second parameter, and / or the first subcarrier interval and / or the second subcarrier interval and / or the third subcarrier interval. Alternatively, the location of the second slot where the downlink control information indicates the location of the (first time-domain resource) is determined based on the first time position and / or the second time position and / or the third time position, and / or the first parameter and / or the second parameter, and / or the first subcarrier interval and / or the second subcarrier interval and / or the third subcarrier interval. The transceiver performs the transceiver on the first time-domain resource. The second slot is the slot where the first time-domain resource (indicated by the DCI) is located and / or the first slot where the first time-domain resource is located and / or the slot where the first symbol of the first time-domain resource is located. The second slot is based on the first subcarrier interval.

[0052] In some embodiments, when DCI includes multiple second information fields or points to multiple time-domain resources (pointed to by the same or different second information fields), the second slot (location) where different second information fields or different time-domain resources are located is with respect to the first time position and / or the second time position and / or the third time position, and / or the first parameter and / or the second parameter, and / or the first subcarrier interval and / or the second subcarrier interval and / or the third subcarrier interval.

[0053] The following explains in detail how to determine the location of the second slot where the first time-domain resource resides.

[0054] Below, we will first explain the first subcarrier interval, the second subcarrier interval, and the third subcarrier interval.

[0055] In some embodiments, the first subcarrier interval represents the subcarrier interval set by the fourth information and / or the reference subcarrier interval of the time-domain resource, and the length of the time-domain resource is associated with the first subcarrier interval, i.e., the first subcarrier interval is used to determine at least the length of the time-domain resource. That is, the length of the time-domain resource is based on the first subcarrier interval, for example, the second information area in DCI indicates that the length of the time-domain resource determined by the setting in the time-domain resource table is L, i.e., the time-domain resource contains a first quantity (L) of time units (slots and / or symbols) with a first subcarrier interval. The starting position of the time-domain resource is associated with the first subcarrier interval. The starting position includes a starting slot and / or a starting symbol. For example, the fourth information is used to set the reference subcarrier interval of the time-domain resource indicated by DCI. The numerical range of the first subcarrier interval is, for example, as shown in Table 1 ([Table 3]) or Table 2 ([Table 4]) below.

[0056] [Table 3]

[0057] [Table 4] Tables 1 and 2 above are merely illustrative examples, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to these. For example, corresponding first subcarrier interval values ​​may be defined for FR1 and FR2, respectively.

[0058] In some embodiments, the second subcarrier interval represents the subcarrier interval of the downlink control information, and / or the subcarrier interval of the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information, and / or the subcarrier interval of the active downlink BWP, and / or the subcarrier interval of the BWP where the downlink control information is located, and / or the subcarrier interval of the BWP where the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located, and / or the subcarrier interval of the BWP for monitoring the downlink control information. The active DL BWP refers to the active downlink BWP (of the NCR-MT / C-link) at the time of receiving the downlink control information. The numerical range of the second subcarrier interval is as shown in Table 3 ([Table 5]) or Table 4 ([Table 6]) below, for example.

[0059] [Table 5]

[0060] [Table 6] Of these, the subcarrier interval for DCI is not applied to 240 kHz, so the numerical range of the second subcarrier interval does not include 240 kHz.

[0061] Tables 3 and 4 above are merely illustrative examples, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to these. For example, corresponding second subcarrier interval values ​​may be defined for FR1 and R2, respectively.

[0062] In some embodiments, the third subcarrier interval represents the subcarrier interval based on the definition and / or reporting and / or setting of the first and / or third parameters. Its numerical range may be the same as the numerical range of the first or second subcarrier interval, or it may be entirely different from the numerical ranges of the first and second subcarrier intervals. The following examples illustrate cases where the ranges differ.

[0063] For example, one subcarrier interval is defined for each of the different frequency ranges. In one of these frequency ranges, the third subcarrier interval is one SCS in the numerical range of the (first and / or second) SCS supported by that frequency range, or one SCS in the numerical range of the (first and / or second) SCS supported by the other frequency range, or equal to it. Several examples are given below, but other combinations are not excluded; for example, FR1 may be 30kHz and FR2 may be 120kHz.

[0064] Example 1: Assume the following, for a given frequency range, the third subcarrier spacing is the minimum SCS in the numerical range of (first and / or second) SCSs supported by that frequency range (the specific values ​​in the following table are based on the examples of numerical ranges for the first / second SCS described above) and is equal to / as shown in Table 5 ([Table 7]).

[0065] [Table 7] Example 2: Assume the following, namely, for one frequency range, the third subcarrier spacing is the maximum SCS in the numerical range of (second) SCS supported by that frequency range (the specific values ​​in the following table are based on the example of the numerical range for the second SCS described above) and is equal to / as shown in Table 6 ([Table 8]).

[0066] [Table 8] Example 3: Assume the following, namely, for a single frequency range, the third subcarrier spacing is equal to / the maximum SCS in the numerical range of (first) SCS supported by that frequency range (the specific values ​​in the following table are based on the example of the numerical range for the first SCS described above), as shown in Table 7 ([Table 9]).

[0067] [Table 9] For example, define a single subcarrier interval for only one frequency range (e.g., only FR2-1) or for multiple frequency ranges (e.g., FR1 and FR2-1).

[0068] Example 1: Assume the following, namely the first and / or second SCS applicable to both FR1 and FR2-1, as shown in Table 8 ([Table 10]).

[0069] [Table 10] Example 2: Assume the following, namely the minimum SCS of the first and / or second SCS, as shown in Table 9 ([Table 11]).

[0070] [Table 11] Example 3: Assume the following, namely the maximum SCS of the first SCS, as shown in Table 10 ([Table 12]).

[0071] [Table 12] Example 4: Assume the following, namely the maximum SCS of the second SCS, as shown in Table 11 ([Table 13]).

[0072] [Table 13] In some embodiments, two or three of the first subcarrier interval, the second subcarrier interval, and the third subcarrier interval are the same or different. Alternatively, two or three of the first subcarrier interval, the second subcarrier interval, and the third subcarrier interval are subcarrier intervals for the same frequency range, or subcarrier intervals for different frequency ranges.

[0073] For example, for a DCI received once, two or three of the first, second, and third subcarrier intervals (if any) (e.g., first and second, first and third, second and third, or first, second and third and third) must be subcarrier intervals for the same frequency range, or they may be subcarrier intervals for different frequency ranges (of course, they may be subcarrier intervals for the same frequency range, i.e., they are not limited to being for the same frequency range).

[0074] For example, for a DCI received once, two or three of the first subcarrier interval, second subcarrier interval, and third subcarrier interval (if any) must be the same, or may be different. If two or three must be the same, then those two or three must be the same can be substituted for each other. For example, when the first SCS and the second SCS are the same, they can be substituted for each other.

[0075] The first, second, and third time positions (where μ1 is the first subcarrier interval, μ2 is the second subcarrier interval, μ3 is the third subcarrier interval, k1 is the first parameter, k2 is the second parameter, and k3 is the third parameter) are explained below.

[0076] In some embodiments, the first time position includes the first slot or the first slot after the first slot; and / or the fifth slot or the first slot after the fifth slot; and / or the downlink control information or the symbol position of the PDCCH that carries the downlink control information.

[0077] In some embodiments, the first time position may be the symbol of the first / first / last (based on the second SCS and / or first SCS) of the DCI / PDCCH Repetition / first / last duplicate.

[0078] In some embodiments, the first slot is, based on the second subcarrier interval, the slot where the downlink control information or the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located. This includes, namely, the first slot being one or the first or last slot where the downlink control information or the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located, or the slot where the symbol of the downlink control information or the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located is located. For example, the first slot is a downlink slot where one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of a DCI / PDCCH is located, or the one / first / last slot where one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of a DCI / PDCCH is located, or the slot where one / first / last symbol of one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of a DCI / PDCCH is located. Of these, the first time position is either the end of the first slot (the last symbol) or the start of the first slot after the first slot (the first symbol).

[0079] Figures 3A to 3C show the first slot in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 3A, when the first subcarrier spacing is greater than the second subcarrier spacing, the position of the first slot is the slot where the downlink control information or the PDCCH that carries the downlink control information is located. As shown in Figure 3B, when the first subcarrier spacing is equal to the second subcarrier spacing, the position of the first slot is the slot where the downlink control information or the PDCCH that carries the downlink control information is located. As shown in Figure 3C, when the first subcarrier spacing is smaller than the second subcarrier spacing, the position of the first slot is the slot where the downlink control information or the PDCCH that carries the downlink control information is located. How the position of the second slot is determined based on the first slot (first time position) will be described later.

[0080] In some embodiments, the fifth slot is, based on the first subcarrier interval, a slot that overlaps with the first slot or a slot after the overlapping slot, or a slot that overlaps with the downlink control information or the slot or symbol where the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located, or a slot that has a fourth offset from the slot that overlaps with the first slot / the slot that overlaps with the downlink control information or the slot or symbol where the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located, or a slot that overlaps with the downlink control information or the slot or symbol where the PDCCH carrying the downlink control information is located. For example, the fifth slot is the one / last one / first slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the first slot, or the fifth slot is the one / last one / first slot that overlaps with one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH, or the fifth slot is the one / last one / first slot that overlaps with one / last one / first symbol of one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH. However, it is not limited to these.For example, the fifth slot is the one (e.g., the 1st) slot after the last / first slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the first slot, that is, the one (e.g., the 1st) slot after the starting position of the first slot that does not overlap the first slot; and / or the one (e.g., the 1st) slot after the last / first slot that overlaps with one overlap / first / last overlap of DCI / PDCCH, that is, the one (e.g., the 1st) slot after the starting position of the first slot that DCI / P It is a slot that does not overlap with one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCCH; and / or it is a slot (e.g., the 1st) after the 1st / last slot that overlaps with one / last / first symbol of one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH, that is, a slot (e.g., the 1st) after the starting position of the first slot that does not overlap with one / last / first symbol of one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH. Furthermore, for example, the fifth slot is one / last / first slot that overlaps (or superimposes) with the first slot, and / or one / last / first slot that overlaps with one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH, and / or one / last / first slot that overlaps with one / last / first symbol of one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH, and the fourth offset, of which the fourth offset is a non-negative integer, but is not limited to this and may be an integer less than 0. For example, the fifth slot is the slot where one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH is located, or the first / first / last slot where one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH is located, or the slot where one / first / last symbol (based on the second or first SCS) of one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate of DCI / PDCCH is located.Of these, the first time position may be the end of the fifth slot (the last symbol) or the start of the first slot after the fifth slot (the first symbol).

[0081] For example, the fifth slot is,

[0082]

[0083]

number

[0084] Figures 4A to 4C show the fifth slot in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 4A, when the first subcarrier spacing is greater than the second subcarrier spacing, the position of the fifth slot is the last slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the first slot (or the last slot that overlaps with the slot where the downlink control information is located). As shown in Figure 4B, when the first subcarrier spacing is equal to the second subcarrier spacing, the position of the fifth slot is the slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the first slot (or the slot that overlaps with the slot where the downlink control information is located). As shown in Figure 4C, when the first subcarrier spacing is smaller than the second subcarrier spacing, the position of the fifth slot is the slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the first slot (or the slot that overlaps with the slot where the downlink control information is located). How the position of the second slot is determined based on the fifth slot (first time position) will be described later.

[0085] In some embodiments, the second time position includes the third slot or the first slot after the third slot; and / or the fourth slot or the first slot after the fourth slot; and / or the sixth slot or the first slot after the sixth slot. The second time position can be considered a reference point for the slot offset of the time-domain resource indicated by the aforementioned CI, and the second time position is associated with the first parameter, and the second time position can be determined based on the first time position and the first parameter.

[0086] In some embodiments, the third slot is determined based on the second subcarrier interval, being after the first slot, or equivalent to the first slot, and / or determined by / based on a first parameter (specifically described in later embodiments). The second time position is the end of the third slot / the last symbol / the end of the last symbol or the start of the first slot after the third slot / the first symbol / the start of the first symbol.

[0087] In some embodiments, the fourth slot is based on the first subcarrier interval, and the fourth slot is a slot that overlaps with or does not overlap with the third slot, or the fourth slot has a third offset with the third slot, for example, the fourth slot is the first / last / first slot that overlaps (or superimposes) with the third slot, but is not limited to these. For example, the fourth slot is one (e.g., the first) slot that does not overlap with the third slot. Also, for example, the fourth slot is the first / last / first slot that overlaps (or superimposes) with the third slot and has a third offset, of which the third offset is a non-negative integer, but is not limited to this and may be a non-negative integer. The second time position may be the end of the fourth slot / the last symbol / the end of the last symbol or the start of the first slot after the fourth slot / the first symbol / the start of the first symbol.

[0088] Figures 5A to 5C show the third and fourth slots in embodiments of the present invention. As shown in Figure 5A, when the first subcarrier interval is greater than the second subcarrier interval, the third slot is determined based on the first slot (in conjunction with the first parameter), and the fourth slot is the last slot that overlaps with the third slot. As shown in Figure 5B, when the first subcarrier interval is equal to the second subcarrier interval, the third slot is equivalent to the fourth slot. As shown in Figure 4C, when the first subcarrier interval is smaller than the second subcarrier interval, the third slot is determined based on the first slot (in conjunction with the first parameter), and the fourth slot is the one slot that overlaps with the third slot. How the second slot is determined based on the third or fourth slot (second time position), and how the position of the third or fourth slot is determined (for example, based on the first slot and the first parameter), will be described later.

[0089] In some embodiments, the sixth slot is after the fifth slot, or equivalent to the fifth slot, and / or determined by / based on the first parameter (specifically described in the embodiments below). The second time position may be the end of the sixth slot / the last symbol / the end of the last symbol or the start of the first slot after the sixth slot / the first symbol / the start of the first symbol. As shown in Figures 4A to 4C, the position of the sixth slot is determined based on the first parameter, and the second slot is determined based on the sixth slot and the second parameter. How the sixth slot is determined (based on the fifth and first parameters) and how the position of the second slot is determined based on the sixth slot will be described later.

[0090] In some embodiments, the third time position includes the seventh slot or the first slot after the seventh slot, the seventh slot being based on the second subcarrier interval, the third time position being associated with the second parameter, or the third time position being determined based on the second time position and the second parameter. The second time position may be the end of the seventh slot / the last symbol / the end of the last symbol or the start of the first slot after the seventh slot / the first symbol / the start of the first symbol. The second slot is, but is not limited to, one (e.g., the last one / first) slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the seventh slot. For example, the second slot is one (e.g., the first) slot that does not overlap the seventh slot. Alternatively, for example, the second slot may be one (e.g., the last one / first) slot that overlaps (or superimposes) the seventh slot and have a fifth offset, where the fifth offset is a non-negative integer, but is not limited to, and may be a less than zero integer.

[0091] Figures 6A to 6C show the seventh slot in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 6A, when the first subcarrier interval is greater than the second subcarrier interval, the second slot overlaps with the seventh slot. As shown in Figure 6B, when the first subcarrier interval is equal to the second subcarrier interval, the seventh slot is equivalent to the second slot. As shown in Figure 6C, when the first subcarrier interval is smaller than the second subcarrier interval, the second slot overlaps with the seventh slot. How the seventh slot (third time position) is determined based on the third slot (second time position), and how the positions of the third and second slots are determined, will be described later.

[0092] The following sections will explain the parameters mentioned above, and how to determine the position of the second slot of each time-space and time-domain resource based on these parameters.

[0093] The first parameter will be explained below.

[0094] In some embodiments, the first parameter represents the first offset (which can be interchangeable in some cases), the first offset being the offset relative to the first time position, and is used to determine the second and / or third slot (and / or fourth slot) and / or sixth slot (and / or seventh slot). For example, the first parameter / first offset is a non-negative integer, but is not limited to that, and may be an integer less than 0.

[0095] In some embodiments, the first parameter / first offset is equivalent to (interchangeable with) the third parameter, or is determined by / based on the third parameter and / or the first SCS and / or the second SCS and / or the third SCS.

[0096] In some embodiments, the first parameter is in units of slots, symbols, or absolute time, i.e., the first parameter / first offset is the number of slots, symbols, or absolute time (e.g., egms) (based on the first SCS and / or second SCS and / or third SCS).

[0097] For example, the third slot (and / or the fourth slot) and / or the sixth slot (and / or the seventh slot) are slots (based on the first and / or second SCS) where the first offset exists relative to the first time position. In other words, the first parameter / first offset is used to represent the offset between the third slot (and / or the fourth slot) and / or the sixth slot (and / or the seventh slot) and the first time position, or the (first) slot (based on the first and / or second SCS) after the (at least) first offset of the first time position, meaning the first parameter / first offset is used to represent the minimum offset between the third slot (and / or the fourth slot) and / or the sixth slot (and / or the seventh slot) and the first time position.

[0098] For example, the third slot can be represented as follows:

[0099] Example 1: slot n+k1, where n is the first slot and k1 is based on the second subcarrier interval μ2.

[0100] For example, k1 is the number of slots or the first slot offset (first offset) based on the second subcarrier spacing μ2.

[0131] For example, k1 is the number of slots or the first slot offset (first offset) based on the first subcarrier spacing μ1.

[0134]

[0135] For example, k1 is the number of slots or the first slot offset (first offset) based on the first subcarrier spacing μ1.

[0136] Example: slot n+k1, where n is the fifth slot and k1 is based on the first subcarrier interval μ1.

[0137] For example, k1 is the number of slots or the first slot offset (first offset) based on the first subcarrier spacing μ1.

[0138] Figures 7A and 7B illustrate how, in embodiments of the present invention, other types of lots (e.g., second time position) are determined when the first parameter is in units of slots. As shown in Figure 7A, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 2, which is the offset relative to the first slot (slot n1) and is based on the second SCS. The third slot (second time position) is slot n1 + k1, which has the offset k1 of the first slot (first time position) (based on the second SCS). As shown in Figure 7B, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 4, which is the offset relative to the fifth slot (slot n2) and is based on the first SCS. The sixth slot (second time position) is slot n2 + k1, which has the offset k1 of the fifth slot (first time position) (based on the first SCS).

[0139] Figures 8A to 8C illustrate how, in embodiments of the present invention, other types of slots (e.g., second time position) are determined when the first parameter is based on symbols. As shown in Figure 8A, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 14, which is the offset for the (one / first / last) (based on the second SCS) symbol (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate), based on the second SCS. The third slot (second time position) is the first (based on the second SCS) slot after at least k1 (symbols) of the (one / first / last) (based on the second SCS) symbol (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate). As shown in Figure 8B, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 28, which is the offset (first time position) for the (one / first / last) symbol (based on the second SCS) of DCI / PDCCH (one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate), based on the second SCS. The sixth slot (second time position) is the first (based on the first SCS) slot after at least k1 (symbols) of the (one / first / last) symbol (based on the second SCS) of DCI / PDCCH (one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate). As shown in Figure 8C, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 56, which is the offset for the (one / first / last) symbol (based on the second SCS and / or first SCS) (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one duplicate / first duplicate / last duplicate), based on the first SCS. The sixth slot (second time position) is the first (based on the first SCS) slot after at least k1 (symbols) of the (one / first / last) (based on the second SCS and / or first SCS) symbol (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one overlap / first overlap / last overlap).As shown in Figure 8D, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 42, which is the offset relative to the end of the fifth slot (the last symbol) or the start of the first slot after the fifth slot (the first symbol) (first time position), and is based on the first SCS. The sixth slot (second time position) is the first (based on the first SCS) slot at least k1 (symbols) after the end of the fifth slot (the last symbol) or the start of the first slot after the fifth slot (the first symbol) (first time position).

[0140] Figures 9A to 9F illustrate how, in embodiments of the present invention, other types of slots (e.g., second time position) are determined when the first parameter is in units of absolute time. As shown in Figure 9A, the first parameter is a first offset k1 = 0.25 (ms), which is the offset to the (first / first / last) (based on the second SCS) symbol (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one overlap / first overlap / last overlap). The third slot (second time position) is the first (based on the second SCS) slot at least k1 after the (first / first / last) (based on the second SCS) symbol of DCI / PDCCH (one overlap / first overlap / last overlap). As shown in Figure 9B, the first parameter is a first offset k1 = 0.25 (ms), which is the offset to the (end of the first slot / last symbol / end of the last symbol) or the (start of the first slot / first symbol / start of the first symbol) (first time position) of the first slot after the first slot. The third slot (second time position) is the first (based on the second SCS) slot at least k1 after the first slot (end of the first slot / last symbol / end of the last symbol) or the first slot (start of the first symbol / start of the first symbol) (first time position) after the first slot. As shown in Figure 9C, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 0.5 (ms), which is the offset relative to the first slot (start of the first symbol / start of the first symbol) (first time position). The third slot (second time position) is the first (based on the second SCS) slot at least k1 after the first slot (start of the first symbol / start of the first symbol) (first time position). As shown in Figure 9D, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 0.5 (ms), which is the offset relative to the (one / first / last) (based on the second SCS) symbol (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one overlap / first overlap / last overlap).The sixth slot (second time position) is the first (based on the first SCS) slot at least k1 after the (one / first / last) (based on the first SCS) symbol (first time position) of DCI / PDCCH (one overlap / first overlap / last overlap). As shown in Figure 9E, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 0.375 (ms), which is the offset relative to the first slot (end of / last symbol / end of last symbol) (first time position). The sixth slot (second time position) is the first (based on the second SCS) slot at least k1 after the first slot (end of / last symbol / end of last symbol) (first time position). As shown in Figure 9F, the first parameter is the first offset k1 = 0.375 (ms), which is the offset relative to the fifth slot (end of / last symbol / end of last symbol) (first time position). The sixth slot (second time position) is the first (based on the second SCS) slot at least k1 after the fifth slot (end of / last symbol / end of last symbol) (first time position).

[0141] All of the above examples assume that the first subcarrier interval (120 kHz) is greater than the second subcarrier interval (60 kHz). However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to this, and a comprehensive list is omitted here.

[0142] In some embodiments, the second parameter represents a second offset (which can be interchangeable in some cases), where the second offset refers to an offset relative to the second time position and can be used to determine the second slot and / or the seventh slot (third time position). For example, the second parameter / second offset is a non-negative integer, and the numerical range of the second parameter / second offset starts from 0 or 1, but is not limited to these, and may be an integer less than 0.

[0143] In some embodiments, the second parameter / second offset is equivalent to (interchangeable with) the fourth parameter and / or determined based on the fourth parameter and / or the first SCS and / or the second SCS and / or the third SCS.

[0144] In some embodiments, the second parameter is in units of slots, symbols, or absolute time; that is, the second parameter / second offset is the number of slots, symbols, or absolute time (e.g., egms) (based on the first and / or second and / or third SCS). For example, the second and / or seventh slots are the slots (based on the first and / or second SCS) where the second offset exists relative to the second time position; that is, the second parameter / second offset is used to represent the offset between the second and / or seventh slots and the second time position. Alternatively, the (first) slot (based on the first and / or second SCS) after the (at least) second offset of the second time position; that is, the second parameter / second offset is used to represent the minimum offset between the second and / or seventh slots and the second time position.

[0145] For example, the seventh slot may be expressed as follows (for example, by adding k2 to the third slot):

[0146] Example: slot n+k2, where n is the third slot and k2 is based on the second subcarrier interval μ2.

[0147] Example: slot n + k1 + k2, where n is the first slot and k1 and k2 are based on the second subcarrier spacing μ2.

[0148] The interpretation of k1 is the same as in Example 1 for the third slot.

[0185] For example, k1 is the number of slots or the first slot offset (first offset) based on the first subcarrier spacing μ1.

[0186] Figures 10A to 10C show how the second slot or the seventh slot is determined when the second parameter is in units of slots in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 10A, based on Figure 7A, the fourth slot, slot n2, is the slot that overlaps with the third slot, slot n1+k1, and the second parameter is the second offset k2=2, which is the offset relative to the fourth slot (slot n2), and is based on the first SCS. The second slot is the slot where the offset k2 exists (based on the first SCS) with the fourth slot (second time position). As shown in Figure 10B, the second parameter is the second offset k2=2, which is the offset relative to the sixth slot (slot n2+k1), and is based on the first SCS. The second slot is the slot where the offset k2 exists (based on the first SCS) with the sixth slot (second time position). As shown in Figure 10C, based on Figure 7A, the second parameter is the second offset k2=1, which is the offset relative to the third slot (slot n1+k1), and is based on the second SCS. The seventh slot (third position) is a slot (based on the second SCS) with an offset k2 to the third slot (second time position), and the second slot is a slot (the last one) based on the first SCS that overlaps with the seventh slot.

[0187] In some embodiments, the first and second parameters are further used to determine the sixth offset, which refers to the offset relative to the first time position, and is used to determine the second slot and / or the seventh slot (third time position).

[0188] For example, the second and / or seventh slots are slots (based on the first and / or second SCS) where the sixth offset exists relative to the first time position, i.e., the sixth offset is used to represent the offset between the second and / or seventh slots and the first time position. Alternatively, the first slot (based on the first and / or second SCS) after the sixth offset (at least) of the first time position, i.e., the sixth offset is used to represent the minimum offset between the second and / or seventh slots and the first time position. The sixth offset X is associated with the first and / or second and / or third and / or fourth parameters, and / or with respect to the first and / or second and / or third subcarrier intervals, for example, the sixth offset corresponds to the sum of the time corresponding to the first offset and the time corresponding to the second offset.

[0189] The third parameter will be explained below.

[0190] In some embodiments, the third and / or first parameter represents the shortest time required for the NCR to receive the DCI and / or apply the indicated beam. This shortest time required to apply the indicated beam includes the time required for beam switching and / or the time required for interaction between the NCR-MT and the NCR-Fwd (e.g., the time required for the NCR-MT to provide (or indicate) the beam to the NCR-Fwd). The third and / or first parameter may have other meanings, but is not limited to them.

[0191] In some embodiments, the third parameter (value / numerical range) is associated with the SCS (third SCS) (e.g., based on the number of symbols and / or slots of the third SCS, in which case the time length must be determined in conjunction with / based on the SCS) and / or not associated with it (e.g., absolute time, in which case the time length does not need to be determined in conjunction with / based on the SCS) (in the examples in the table below, all are assumed to be associated with the SCS, but are not limited to this, and mixed cases are not excluded, for example, some are associated with the SCS and some are not for different SCSs).

[0192] In some embodiments, the third parameter (value / numerical range) is defined and / or reported and / or set per SCS and / or frequency range (FR1 and / or FR2-1 and / or FR2-2) and / or UE / (NCR-)MT.

[0193] (i) Defined and / or reported and / or set for / based on the SCS. This means defining and / or reporting and / or setting a third parameter for each different SCS, for example, the third parameter for each different SCS applies to the different first SCS and / or second SCS, respectively.

[0194] For example, the third parameter is defined with respect to / based on the SCS (third SCS). For instance, the protocol defines / provides one value for each SCS, meaning that for each SCS, the defined numerical range contains only one value.

[0195] Table 12 ([Table 14]) shows the case where the numerical range of the third SCS is the same as that of the second SCS.

[0196] [Table 14] Table 13 ([Table 15]) shows the case where the numerical range of the third SCS is the same as that of the first SCS.

[0208] For example, the third parameter is defined with respect to / based on the frequency range (FR1 and / or FR2-1 and / or FR2-2). For example, in the protocol, one value is defined / provided for one frequency range, that is, for one frequency range, only one value is included in the defined numerical range.

[0211] For example, the third parameter is defined for / based on the UE / (NCR-)MT. For example, the protocol defines / provides one value for the UE / (NCR-)MT, that is, for the UE / (NCR-)MT, the defined numerical range includes only one value.

[0214] [Table 30]

[0215] [Table 31] Note that while Tables 14 through 31 above contain multiple cases where the third parameter includes "or", the first parameter represents only one of these cases.

[0216] In some embodiments, (all / any one) NCRs must support the first DCI format (or non-periodic beam indication), or (one NCR) may or may not support this feature or function. In the latter case, the NCR can report whether it supports it. Furthermore, a third parameter (for example, subcarrier spacing / frequency range / UE / MT in (i) through (iii) above) must be reported by the NCR and / or indicated by the network equipment. If it supports it, the NCR (must) report the above third parameter. Alternatively, by reporting the above third parameter, the NCR indirectly indicates that it supports the first DCI format. Accordingly, if the NCR does not report the third parameter, the network equipment will assume that it does not support the first DCI format.

[0217] The fourth parameter is explained below.

[0218] In some embodiments, the fourth parameter is set by RRC (second information), and the fourth parameter is the same as the second parameter and / or is used to determine the second parameter and / or is used to determine one or more slots other than the first slot mentioned above. For example, the fourth parameter (k2) may be slotOffsetAperiodic-r18.

[0220] In embodiments of the present invention, by considering the subcarrier spacing and / or reference slot position and / or offset when determining the location of the time-domain resource corresponding to the access link beam, the corresponding time-domain resource when the transponder performs a forwarding can be matched to the corresponding time-domain resource of the signal received or transmitted between the network equipment and the UE. This improves the signal amplification / enhancement effect, saves power consumption of the transponder, reduces interference to other equipment in the network, and improves network throughput.
