[0021] The following provides an interpretation and explanation of the related art in this application.

[0022] 1. Beam measurement and reporting Analog beamforming is launched in the full bandwidth, and each polarization direction array element on each radio frequency antenna array panel can only transmit analog beams in a time division multiplexing manner. The analog beamforming weight value is realized by adjusting the parameters of the equipment such as the radio frequency front-end phase shifter.

[0023] Currently, in academia and industry, analog beamforming vector training is generally performed using a polling method. That is, the array elements in each polarization direction of each antenna panel transmit training signals (i.e., candidate beamforming vectors) in sequence at a set time in a time division multiplexing manner, and the terminal feeds back a beam report after measurement so that the network side can adopt the training signal to realize analog beam emission during the next business transmission. The contents of the beam report generally include a number of optimal emission beam identifiers and the measured reception power of each emission beam.

[0024] When performing beam measurement, the network configures a reference signal resource set (RS resource set) including at least one reference signal resource, such as an SSB resource or a CSI-RS resource. The UE measures the Layer 1 Reference Signal Received Power / Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-RSRP / L1-SINR) of each RS resource, and reports at least one optimal measurement result to the network, where the report content includes an SSB resource indicator (SSBRI) or a CSI-RS resource indicator (CRI), and L1-RSRP / L1-SINR. The report content reflects at least one optimal beam and its quality, so that the network can determine beam information for transmitting a channel or signal to the UE.

[0025] II. Beam indication mechanism In order to establish a beam link between the network and the UE and realize the transmission of a channel or reference signal, after the beam measurement and beam report, the network can provide beam instruction for the channel or reference signal of the downlink and uplink.

[0026] For beam indication of the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), the network configures K Transmission Configuration Indication (TCI) states for each Control-Resource Set (CORESET) using Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, and if K>1, the Media Access Control (MAC) control unit (Control Element, CE) indicates or activates one TCI state, and if K=1, no further MAC CE command is required. When the UE monitors the PDCCH, it uses the same Quasi-colocation (QCL) for all search spaces in the CORESET, i.e., it uses the same TCI state to monitor the PDCCH. The RS (e.g., periodic CSI-RS resource, semi-persistent CSI-RS resource, SS block, etc.) and UE-specific PDCCH demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port in this TCI state are space QCL. Based on this TCI state, the UE can know which receiving beam to use to receive the PDCCH.

[0027] For beam direction of the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), the network configures M TCI states by RRC signaling and then configures 2 TCI states by using the MAC CE command. NThe UE activates a TCI state and notifies the TCI state by the N-bit TCI field of the DCI, and the DMRS port of the PDSCH to be scheduled with the RS in this TCI state is QCL. Based on this TCI state, the UE can know whether to use its receiving beam to receive the PDSCH.

[0028] For beam indication of a Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), if the CSI-RS type is periodic CSI-RS, the network configures QCL information in the CSI-RS resource by RRC signaling. If the CSI-RS type is semi-persistent CSI-RS, the network indicates the QCL information when activating one CSI-RS resource from the CSI-RS resource set configured by RRC by MAC CE command. If the CSI-RS type is aperiodic CSI-RS, the network configures QCL in the CSI-RS resource by RRC signaling and triggers the CSI-RS using DCI.

[0029] For beam indication of the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), the network uses RRC signaling to configure spatial relation information in each PUCCH resource by the parameter PUCCH-SpatialRelationInfo, and indicates or activates one of these pieces of spatial relation information using MAC-CE if the PUCCH resource contains multiple pieces of spatial relation information. If the PUCCH resource contains only one piece of spatial relation information, no further MAC CE command is required.

[0030] With respect to the beam indication of the PUSCH, the spatial relation information of the PUSCH is that when the DCI carried on the PDCCH schedules the PUSCH, each SRI codepoint in the sounding reference signal resource indicator (SRS Resource Indicator, SRI) field in the DCI indicates one SRI, and this SRI is used to indicate the spatial relation information of the PUSCH.

[0031] For a beam instruction of a sounding reference signal (SRS), if the SRS type is periodic SRS, the network configures spatial relation information in the SRS resource by RRC signaling. If the SRS type is semi-persistent SRS, the network activates one of a set of spatial relation information configured by RRC by a MAC CE command. If the SRS type is aperiodic SRS, the network may configure spatial relation information in the SRS resource by RRC signaling and update the spatial relation information of the aperiodic SRS resource by a MAC CE command.

[0032] III. PUSCH Scheduling Transmission Process The transmission schemes of PUSCH include codebook based transmission and non-codebook based transmission. If the value of txConfig in the upper layer parameter pusch-Config is 'codebook', the network configures the UE for codebook based transmission, and if the value of txConfig in the upper layer parameter pusch-Config is 'noncodebook', the network configures the UE for non-codebook based transmission.

[0033] 1) Codebook-based transmission has the following main steps:

[0034] In step S11, the UE sends an SRS to the base station for the network to obtain uplink CSI.

[0035] Here, only one SRS resource set for the codebook is supported, each SRS resource set includes at most two SRS resources, and the number of ports included in the two SRS resources is the same, which is 1, 2, or 4 ports.

[0036] In step S12, the base station performs uplink channel detection based on the SRS, performs resource scheduling for the UE, and determines SRS resources corresponding to uplink transmission, the number of layers and a precoding matrix for uplink transmission, and further determines the MCS for uplink transmission based on the Transmitted Precoding Matrix Indicator (TPMI) and channel information, and then the base station notifies the UE of the PUSCH resource allocation, the corresponding Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS), TPMI, rank indication (RI) and the corresponding SRS resource indication.

[0037] Where SRI in DCI: TIFF0007626848000001.tif824bit, and this N SRS means the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set, and if two SRS resources are configured, it is used to indicate whether it is the first SRS resource or the second SRS resource. If only one SRS resource is configured, this domain is the default.

[0038] TPMI in DCI: 0 to 6 bits depend on the number of SRS ports, the codebook subset placed in the PUSCH-config, fullyAndPartialAndNonCoherent, partialAndNonCoherent, and nonCoherent. The RRC configuration of the CG does not have the codebookSubset parameter, and the codebookSubset parameter in the pusch-config needs to be multiplexed. TMPI determines the number of layers and corresponds to joint encoding, but the maximum number of layers is determined by the number of ports in the SRS resource and the supportable maxRANK in pusch-config that is configured.

[0039] Since the maximum number of SRS resources that can be supported in one SRS resource set is 16, SRI of configuredGrantConfig in RRC (SRI without scheduling grant configuration in RRC): 0-15. That is, maxNrofSRS-ResourcePerSet=16; TPMI of configuredGrantConfig in RRC: 0-63, maximum 6 bits.

[0040] In step S13, UE performs modulation and coding on data according to MCS indicated by network, and determines the precoding matrix and the number of transmission layers used when transmitting data by using indicated SRI, TPMI and RI, and performs precoding and transmission on data. The demodulated pilot signal of PUSCH and the data of PUSCH adopt the same precoding method, that is, DMRS and data use the same precoding.

[0041] In step S14, the base station estimates an uplink channel based on the DMRS and performs data detection.

[0042] 2) The steps of non-codebook based transmission are as follows:

[0043] In step S21, the UE measures a downlink reference signal, obtains a candidate uplink precoding matrix, and transmits the SRS of the non-codebook transmission scheme to the base station after precoding.

[0044] Here, only one SRS resource set is supported, and each SRS resource set contains at most four SRS resources. Only a single port is supported.

[0045] This downlink reference signal is the NZP CSI-RS resource for the associated channel measurement CM in the SRS resource set.

[0046] It should be noted that the CSI-RS in the embodiments of the present application may not be associated with a corresponding RS, that is, the terminal may select a precoding by itself to be attached to the SRS resource.

[0047] In step S22, the base station detects an uplink channel according to the SRS sent by the UE, performs resource scheduling for the UE, determines SRS resources corresponding to uplink transmission and an MCS level of uplink transmission, and notifies the UE, where the SRS resources corresponding to uplink transmission are indicated to the UE by the SRI.

[0048] Where SRI in DCI: TIFF0007626848000002.tif2362bits, N SRS is the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set, and L max is indicated by maxMIMO-Layers carried in the upper layer parameter PUSCH-ServingCellConfig, and in the absence of configuration, L max is N SRS Provided by L max =N SRS It is.

[0049] TPMI in DCI: 0 bit The maximum number of SRS resources that can be supported in one SRS resource set is 16, so SRI in RRC: 0-15. That is, maxNrofSRS-ResourcePerSet=16. The maximum overhead is N SRS =L max If =4, then 4+6+4+1=15, which is equal to 4 bits.

[0050] TPMI in RRC: 0-63, maximum 6 bits.

[0051] In step S23, the UE performs modulation and coding on the data according to the MCS sent by the base station, and determines a precoding matrix and a number of transmission layers for the data using the SRI, and transmits the data after precoding the data.

[0052] Here, the DMRS of the PUSCH is the same as the precoding of the data. Note that the number of SRS resources indicated by the SRI is the number of ranks of the PUSCH transmission, and the transmission layer of the PUSCH has a one-to-one correspondence with the SRS resource indicated by the SRI.

[0053] In step S24, the base station estimates an uplink channel based on the DMRS and performs data detection.

[0054] It should be noted that the beam information related to the present application may be called spatial relation information, spatial domain transmission filter information, spatial filter information, transmission configuration instruction state (TCI state) information, quasi-co-location (QCL) information, or QCL parameters. Here, the downlink beam information may be generally represented by TCI state information or QCL information. The uplink beam information may be generally represented by spatial relation information.

[0055] An antenna panel in the context of this application may also be referred to as an antenna group, antenna port group, antenna set, antenna port set, beam set, beam subset, antenna array, antenna port array, antenna subarray, antenna port subarray, logical entity, entity, or antenna entity, etc.

[0056] Here, the Panel identifier may be an antenna panel identifier, a reference signal resource identifier, a reference signal resource set identifier, a TCI state identifier, a QCL information identifier, a space relation identifier, or the like.

[0057] Hereinafter, the method for determining uplink channel parameters according to the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail through specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof in conjunction with the drawings.

[0058] An embodiment of the present application provides an uplink channel parameter determination method performed by a terminal. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of an uplink channel parameter determination method in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2, the steps of the method include: receiving target indication information sent by a network side device, the target indication information including at least one of transmission arrangement indication status information and first indication information, the transmission arrangement indication status information or the first indication information being used to indicate uplink channel parameters of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission; and determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information.

[0059] According to steps S202 and S204 of the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine uplink channel parameters for scheduling PUSCH transmission according to the transmission configuration indication status information and / or the first indication information, which avoids the need to determine uplink channel parameters required for PUSCH transmission through SRI signaling in the prior art, thereby saving the overhead of SRI signaling and realizing the scheduling and transmission of PUSCH.

[0060] The above step S202 and step S204 of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with a specific application scenario. The application scenario in the embodiment of the present application includes codebook-based PUSCH scheduling transmission and non-codebook-based PUSCH scheduling transmission, and in the PUSCH transmission process, the network side device may configure SRS resources or may not configure SRS resources, which can be specifically described in the following manner:

[0061] 1) Transmission that schedules PUSCH based on a codebook, and the network side does not configure SRS resources; When the PUSCH is a PUSCH scheduled based on a codebook, and the network side device does not configure a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource in the terminal, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Step S204-11 of determining PUSCH beam information based on transmission arrangement indication status information; and a step S204-12 of determining the precoding information based on first indication information including the precoding information in the downlink control information DCI.

[0062] It can be seen that the above steps can determine the beam information and precoding information of the PUSCH in the uplink channel parameters, and the number of ports in the uplink channel parameters can be realized in the following manner: Determine the number of ports of the PUSCH according to the transmission configuration indication status information related to the number of ports of the PUSCH, or determine the number of ports of the PUSCH according to the first indication information or the manner of protocol agreement.

[0063] It should be noted that the number of ports and the format of DCI in the embodiment of the present application have a preset corresponding relationship, and the preset corresponding relationship is determined by a protocol or configured by a network side device. In addition, the precoding information and the number of ports in the embodiment of the present application also have a corresponding relationship.

[0064] 2) Transmission that schedules PUSCH based on a codebook. When the network side configures SRS resources, In this application scenario, the SRS resources are: 1) a first SRS resource configured by a network side device; 2) At least one second SRS resource among a plurality of second SRS resources having the same number of ports, which are arranged by a network side device; 3) At least one third SRS resource among a plurality of third SRS resources configured by a network side device, and at least two third SRS resources among the plurality of third SRS resources have different port numbers; 4) At least one fourth SRS resource among multiple fourth SRS resources arranged by a network side device, at least two of the multiple fourth SRS resources have different port numbers, and the at least one transmission arrangement instruction status information is related to the at least one fourth SRS resource among the multiple fourth SRS resources, or the at least one transmission arrangement instruction status information includes at least one of the following: at least one fourth SRS resource among the multiple fourth SRS resources is arranged in the at least one transmission arrangement instruction status information.

[0065] According to the above SRS resource, the method of determining uplink channel parameters according to the target indication information related to step S204 in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Step S204-31 of determining beam information of a PUSCH based on transmission arrangement instruction state information; Step S204-32 of determining SRS resources based on the transmission configuration indication status information or the first indication information; A step S204-33 of determining the number of ports of the PUSCH based on the number of ports of the SRS resource; and a step S204-34 of determining precoding information based on the first indication information.

[0066] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the SRS resource is configured in the transmission configuration indication status information, or the transmission configuration indication status information is related to the SRS resource, based on which there is an association relationship between the precoding information and the SRS resource, where the beam information of the SRS resource is determined by the transmission configuration indication status information.

[0067] In the following, a method for determining uplink channel parameters in the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook will be described by way of example, combining the first to eighth embodiments of the present invention.

[0068] Method 1: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook, when the network side equipment does not configure sounding reference signal (SRS) resources in the terminal, the target indication information is transmission arrangement indication status information and first indication information, and the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information related to step S204 in the embodiment of the present application may further include: determining the number of ports and beam information of PUSCH based on the transmission arrangement indication status information related to the number of ports of PUSCH, and determining precoding information based on the first indication information including precoding information in downlink control information (DCI).

[0069] It should be noted that there is a relationship between the precoding information and the number of ports associated with the transmission configuration indication status information. That is, after determining the number of ports associated with the transmission configuration indication status information, obtain the precoding information from the DCI of the first indication information according to the number of ports. Note that the precoding information in the embodiment of the present application includes precoding matrix and rank information, etc. (indicated by TPMI signaling).

[0070] In a specific application scenario, the method 1 may be as follows.

[0071] In step S11, the network side device preliminarily configures a TCI state pool and indicates a TCI state (transmission configuration indication state) from the pool to the terminal. Here, the TCI state in the configured pool is related to the number of ports, for example, 1 port, 2 ports, 4 ports, etc.

[0072] In step S12, the terminal learns beam information and port information (eg, the number of ports) of the PUSCH based on the TCI state instructed by the network side device.

[0073] In step S13, when the terminal determines the TPMI information in the DCI, it can know whether the TPMI information indicated in the TPMI field is for some port based on the obtained port number (e.g., by deciphering the index in the TPMI field based on the port number).

[0074] As can be seen, in this method 1, the number of ports can be determined according to the TCI state, and the network side equipment transmits precoding information corresponding to the determined number of ports determined by uplink measurement (e.g., DMRS measurement) to the terminal via the first instruction information, so that there is no need to determine channel parameters by SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0075] Method 2: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on the codebook, when the network side device does not configure the sounding reference signal (SRS) resource for the terminal, the target indication information is the transmission configuration indication status information and the first indication information, and the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information related to step S204 in the embodiment of the present application may further include: determining beam information of PUSCH based on the transmission configuration indication status information, and determining the number of ports and precoding information based on the first indication information. Here, the first indication information is used to indicate the number of ports of PUSCH, and the first indication information includes the precoding information in the downlink control information (DCI).

[0076] It can be seen that in scheme 2, by determining uplink channel parameters, such as beam information, number of ports and precoding information, through a combination of the TCI state and the first indication information, there is no need to determine the channel parameters through SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0077] Method 3: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook, when the network side equipment does not configure sounding reference signal (SRS) resources for the terminal, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, and the number of ports of the PUSCH is agreed upon by a protocol. The method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information related to step S204 in the embodiment of the present application may further include: determining beam information of the PUSCH based on the transmission configuration indication status information; and determining precoding information based on the first indication information including precoding information in the downlink control information (DCI).

[0078] In method 3, the number of ports is determined by a protocol, and the first instruction information only needs to indicate precoding information.

[0079] It should be noted that there is a correlation between the precoding information in the above-mentioned Scheme 2 and Scheme 3 and the number of ports indicated by the first indication information or the number of ports agreed upon by the protocol.

[0080] It can be seen that in method 3, by determining uplink channel parameters, such as beam information, number of ports and precoding information, through a combination of the TCI state and the first indication information, there is no need to determine the channel parameters through SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0081] Method 4: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook, when the network side equipment does not configure sounding reference signal (SRS) resources for the terminal, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, and the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information related to step S204 in the embodiment of the present application may further include: determining beam information of PUSCH based on the transmission configuration indication status information, and determining the number of ports and precoding information of PUSCH based on the first indication information. Here, the transmission configuration instruction status information is used to indicate beam information of a PUSCH, the first instruction information is used to indicate the number of ports of a PUSCH, and the first instruction information includes precoding information in a DCI, and the number of ports and the format of the DCI have a predetermined correspondence relationship, and the predetermined correspondence relationship is agreed upon by a protocol or configured by a network side device.

[0082] This method 4 may be as follows in a specific application scenario.

[0083] In step S21, the network side device configures the number of ports, In step S22, the network side device schedules PUSCH transmission using a corresponding DCI format based on the number of configured ports, and indicates beam information (e.g., TCI status information) of the PUSCH using a MAC CE command or DCI signaling.

[0084] For example, if one port is pre-configured, DCI format 0_0 is used, if two ports are pre-configured, DCI format 0_1 ​​is used, and so on.

[0085] In step S23, the precoding information indicated by the first indication information is found based on the number of ports and the TPMI field in the DCI.

[0086] It can be seen that in method 4, by determining uplink channel parameters, such as beam information, number of ports and precoding information, through a combination of the TCI state and the first indication information, there is no need to determine the channel parameters through SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0087] Method 5: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook, when a network side device configures a first SRS resource, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, where the transmission configuration indication status information configures the first SRS resource, or the transmission configuration indication status information is related to the first SRS resource, and the first indication information includes precoding information in DCI.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present application, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 is as follows: Step S51 of determining beam information of a PUSCH and a first SRS resource based on transmission arrangement indication status information; A step S52 of determining a number of ports of a PUSCH based on a number of ports of a first SRS resource; The method may further include a step S53 of determining precoding information based on the first indication information.

[0089] It should be noted that the precoding information in Scheme 5 is obtained by the network side equipment measuring a first SRS resource, where the beam information of the first SRS resource is determined based on the transmission configuration indication status information.

[0090] The fifth method may be as follows in a specific application scenario: if the network configures an SRS resource, the UE transmits an SRS resource configured in a TCI state or related to this TCI state according to the TCI state information of the PUSCH indicated by the network for measurement by the network side device.

[0091] Here, the beam information of the SRS resource is arranged in the SRS resource by the network, or is determined based on the TCI state of the PUSCH indicated by the network side device. If the SRS resource is a periodic SRS resource, the beam information of the SRS resource may be determined based on the TCI state of the PUSCH indicated by the network side device. Furthermore, the network side device indicates precoding information in DCI based on the measurement result, and the precoding information is indicated to the terminal by the first indication information.

[0092] It can be seen that in method 5, by determining uplink channel parameters, such as beam information, number of ports and precoding information, through a combination of the TCI state and the first indication information, there is no need to determine the channel parameters through SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0093] Manner 6: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on the codebook, when the network side device configures multiple second SRS resources with the same port number, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, where at least one second SRS resource is configured in the transmission configuration indication status information, or the transmission configuration indication status information is related to at least one second SRS resource, and the first indication information includes precoding information in DCI; In the embodiment of the present application, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 is as follows: Step S204-61 of determining beam information of the PUSCH and at least one second SRS resource based on the transmission configuration indication status information; A step S204-62 of determining a number of ports of the PUSCH based on a number of ports of at least one second SRS resource; The method may further include a step S204-63 of determining precoding information based on the first indication information.

[0094] Here, the precoding information in this method 6 is obtained by the network side equipment measuring at least one second SRS resource, and the beam information of the at least one second SRS resource is determined based on the transmission configuration instruction status information.

[0095] In a specific application scenario, the sixth method may be as follows: if a network side device configures multiple SRS resources with the same port information, the terminal transmits at least one of the SRS resources for the network side device to measure. Here, the beam information of the multiple SRS resources is configured in the SRS resource by the network, or is determined by the terminal, or is determined based on the TCI state of the PUSCH indicated by the network. If the SRS resource is a periodic SRS resource, the beam information of the SRS resource may be determined based on the TCI state of the PUSCH indicated by the network.

[0096] Therefore, the network side device can indicate precoding information in DCI according to the measurement result, and can indicate to the terminal by the first indication information. The beam information of the PUSCH can be determined by the network indicating one TCI state information or indicating one SRS resource.

[0097] Here, when one TCI state information is indicated, one of a plurality of SRS resources may be included as a source RS.

[0098] It can be seen that in this method 6, by determining uplink channel parameters, such as beam information, number of ports and precoding information, through a combination of the TCI state and the first indication information, there is no need to determine the channel parameters through SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0099] Scheme 7: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook, when a network side device configures multiple third SRS resources, and at least two of the multiple third SRS resources have different port numbers, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, where the first indication information includes a sounding reference signal resource indication SRI in DCI and precoding information.

[0100] In the embodiment of the present application, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 is as follows: The method may further include a step S204-71 of determining beam information of a PUSCH based on transmission arrangement instruction status information, determining the number of ports of a PUSCH based on the SRI in the first instruction information, and determining precoding information based on the first instruction information.

[0101] It should be noted that the precoding information in this method 7 is obtained by the network side equipment measuring multiple third SRS resources, where the beam information of these multiple third SRS resources is determined based on the transmission configuration instruction status information.

[0102] Scheme 7 may be applied in the following specific application scenario: A network configures multiple SRS resources for codebook, and these SRS resources have different port configurations.

[0103] In step S71, the network side device indicates the TCI state of the PUSCH, In step S72, beam information of a plurality of SRS resources is determined based on the TCI state; In step S73, the terminal transmits a plurality of SRS resources for the network side device to measure; In step S74, the network side device indicates one SRS resource information (for example, using an SRI field) in the DCI based on the measurement result to determine port information of the PUSCH, and indicates precoding information corresponding to the port information in the DCI.

[0104] It can be seen that in Scheme 7, uplink channel parameters, such as beam information, number of ports and precoding information, are determined by combining the TCI state with the first indication information, so that there is no need to determine all channel parameters through SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, and correct scheduling of the PUSCH is realized.

[0105] Manner 8: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a codebook, when the network side equipment configures a plurality of fourth SRS resources, and at least two of the plurality of fourth SRS resources have different port numbers, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, the first indication information includes precoding information in DCI, and the transmission configuration indication status information is one transmission configuration indication status information in a transmission configuration indication status pool configured by the network side equipment, where at least one transmission configuration indication status information in the transmission configuration indication status pool configures at least one of the plurality of fourth SRS resources, or the at least one transmission configuration indication status information is related to at least one of the plurality of fourth SRS resources.

[0106] In the embodiment of the present application, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 is as follows: Step S204-31 of determining beam information of the PUSCH and a corresponding fourth SRS resource based on the transmission configuration indication status information; A step S204-32 of determining a number of ports for the PUSCH based on a fourth SRS resource; The method may further include a step S204-33 of determining precoding information based on the first indication information.

[0107] It should be noted that the precoding information in this method 8 is obtained by the network side equipment measuring multiple SRS resources, where the beam information of the SRS resources is determined based on the transmission configuration indication state information in the transmission configuration indication state pool corresponding to the SRS resources.

[0108] In the specific application scenario of the method 8, the network side device configures multiple SRS resources for codebook, and these SRS resources have different port settings.

[0109] In step S81, a network side device configures or indicates a plurality of TCI state information, where the plurality of TCI state information respectively includes or is associated with a plurality of SRS resource information.

[0110] In step S82, for the network side device to measure, the terminal determines beam information of the plurality of SRS resources according to the plurality of TCI state information, and transmits the plurality of SRS resources.

[0111] In step S83, the network side device indicates the TCI state (one of multiple TCI states) of the PUSCH, and further obtains corresponding SRS resource information, determines port information of the PUSCH based on the corresponding SRS resource, and further determines precoding information based on the DCI.

[0112] It should be explained that, before receiving the target indication information sent by the network side device, the method in the embodiment of the present application includes: The method further includes receiving configuration information for rearranging the number of ports of the SRS resource, transmitted by the network side device, when the number of ports of the SRS resource arranged by the network side device does not match the number of ports of the PUSCH, or determining the number of ports of the SRS resource based on the number of ports associated with the transmission configuration instruction status information in the target instruction information.

[0113] That is, in this application, if the port information of the SRS resource arranged by the network side device is unrelated to the port information of the PUSCH, the number of ports of the SRS resource needs to be changed to the number of ports arranged or instructed.

[0114] 2) Non-codebook based PUSCH transmission In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a non-codebook, the target indication information is the transmission configuration indication status information and the first indication information. The manner of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Step S204-41 of determining beam information of a PUSCH based on transmission arrangement indication status information; or The method includes a step S204-42 of determining beam information of the PUSCH based on the first instruction information.

[0115] That is, in the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a non-codebook, the beam information may be determined by the transmission configuration indication status information or the first indication information.

[0116] Furthermore, the manner of determining the beam information of PUSCH according to the first indication information may be to determine the beam information of PUSCH according to the SRI of DCI in the first indication information. That is, determine the beam information of PUSCH according to the SRI of DCI in the first indication information.

[0117] It should be noted that the SRI of the DCI in the first indication information in the embodiment of the present application can determine at least one of the number of ports of the PUSCH and the precoding information.

[0118] In another optional embodiment of the embodiment of the present application, when the network side device configures a virtual SRS resource having a correlation with an uplink channel parameter, the SRI of the DCI in the first indication information may be used to indicate the virtual SRS resource. It should be noted that the virtual SRS resource configured by the network side device may be a transmission process of scheduling a PUSCH based on a codebook, or may be a transmission process of scheduling a PUSCH based on a non-codebook. Furthermore, the number of ports and / or precoding information of the PUSCH may be determined according to the virtual SRS resource indicated by the SRI in the DCI.

[0119] Based on this, before determining at least one of a number of ports and precoding information of the PUSCH based on the SRI in the DCI, the method includes: Step S206 of transmitting precoding SRS resources to a network side device; The step S207 further includes receiving DCI sent by the network side device, where the precoding information in the DCI is obtained by the network side device measuring the precoding SRS resource.

[0120] Here, the SRS resources include at least one of: 1) SRS resources associated with a first CSI-RS resource whose source reference signal RS is the source RS in the transmission arrangement indication status information; and 2) SRS resources associated with the CSI-RS resources in the transmission arrangement indication status information.

[0121] In the following, the method for determining channel parameters in a non-codebook-based PUSCH transmission process will be described by taking an example in combination with the first and second embodiments of the present invention.

[0122] Scheme 1: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a non-codebook, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, where the first indication information includes an SRI in a DCI; In the embodiment of the present application, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 is as follows: Step S204-51 of determining beam information of a PUSCH based on transmission arrangement indication status information, or determining beam information of a PUSCH based on SRI in DCI in the first indication information; The method may further include a step S204-52 of determining at least one of a number of ports and precoding information of the PUSCH based on the SRI in the DCI.

[0123] In an optional embodiment of the embodiment of the present application, before determining at least one of the number of ports of the PUSCH and the precoding information based on the SRI in the DCI included in the first indication information, the method of the embodiment of the present application includes: Step S91 of determining a source reference signal RS in the transmission configuration indication status information as a source RS of a first CSI-RS resource, the first CSI-RS resource being associated with an SRS resource configured by the network side device; The method may further include a step S92 of transmitting a precoding SRS resource to a network side device based on a measurement result of the first CSI-RS resource, and receiving DCI transmitted by the network side device, wherein beam information of the SRS resource is determined based on transmission arrangement indication status information.

[0124] Correspondingly, the method 1 may be as follows in a specific application scenario.

[0125] In step S101, the network side device indicates a TCI state, where the source RS of the TCI state is an SSB or a CSI-RS.

[0126] In step S102, the QCL source RS (beam corresponding to the SRS resource) of the first CSI-RS resource corresponding to the associatedCSI-RS in the SRS resource configuration information is changed to the SSB or CSI-RS in the TCI state.

[0127] In step S103, the terminal measures a first CSI-RS resource, and sends a precoding SRS resource according to the measurement result, so that the network side device measures and determines the precoding information of the PUSCH.

[0128] In step S104, in order to determine the precoding information of the PUSCH, the network side device indicates SRS resource information (SRI field) in the DCI.

[0129] Scheme 2: In the process of scheduling PUSCH transmission based on a non-codebook, the target indication information is a first indication information including transmission configuration indication status information and SRI in DCI; In the embodiment of the present application, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 is as follows: Step S204-61 of determining beam information of a PUSCH based on transmission arrangement instruction state information; The method may further include a step S204-62 of determining at least one of the number of ports and precoding information of the PUSCH based on the SRI in the DCI in the first indication information.

[0130] In an optional embodiment of the embodiment of the present application, before determining at least one of the number of ports of the PUSCH and the precoding information based on the SRI in the DCI included in the first indication information, the method of the embodiment of the present application includes: Step S111 of transmitting precoding SRS resources according to CSI-RS resources in transmission configuration indication status information; The method may further include a step S112 of receiving DCI transmitted by a network side device, where precoding information in the DCI is obtained by the network side device measuring an SRS resource, and where beam information of the SRS resource is determined based on transmission configuration instruction status information.

[0131] In a specific application scenario, this method 2 may be as follows.

[0132] In step S121, when the network side device does not configure the parameter associatedCSI-RS in the SRS resource, or the configured parameter associatedCSI-RS is not enabled, the beam information of the SRS resource is determined based on the source RS in the TCI state indicated by the network side device, and at this time, the source RS in the TCI state is CSI-RS.

[0133] In step S122, the terminal transmits a precoding SRS resource for the network side device to measure and determine the precoding information of the PUSCH.

[0134] In step S123, in order to determine the precoding information of the PUSCH, the network side device indicates SRS resource information (SRI field) in the DCI.

[0135] In addition to the above-mentioned codebook and non-codebook-based PUSCH transmission, in the embodiment of the application, the target indication information may be only the transmission configuration indication status information. Based on this, the method of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: 1), when the source RS in the transmission arrangement indication status information is a downlink RS, the downlink RS is used as a reference signal for first power control parameter information; 2) when the source RS in the transmission arrangement indication state information is an uplink RS, the source RS of the uplink RS or a downlink RS corresponding to the uplink RS is used as a reference signal of the first power control parameter information; 3), when the source RS does not exist in the transmission arrangement indication state information, a preset downlink RS is used as a reference signal of the first power control parameter information; 4) determining a reference signal of first power control parameter information based on a preset mapping relationship and transmission arrangement indication status information, where the preset mapping relationship is used to indicate a mapping relationship between the transmission arrangement indication status information and the reference signal of the first power control parameter information.

[0136] Here, the first power control parameter may be a Pathloss RS (Pathloss Reference Signal).

[0137] In addition to the above-mentioned codebook and non-codebook-based PUSCH transmission, in the embodiment of the application, the target indication information may be transmission arrangement indication status information. Based on this, the manner of determining uplink channel parameters based on the target indication information in step S204 of the embodiment of the application may further include: determining second power control parameter information based on the transmission arrangement indication status information, where the second power control parameter information is configured in the transmission arrangement indication status information, or the transmission arrangement indication status information is related to the second power control parameter information.

[0138] In addition to the above-mentioned transmission of PUSCH based on the codebook and non-codebook, in an embodiment of the application, when the target indication information may be first indication information, and the second power control parameter is related to an SRS resource configured by the network side equipment, determining an uplink channel parameter based on the target indication information in step S204 of the embodiment of the present application includes determining a second power control parameter based on the SRI in the DCI in the first indication information.

[0139] It is to be noted that the second power control parameter information in the embodiment of the present application may be at least one of the power control parameters of the pathloss RS, such as P0, alpha, close loop index, and so on.

[0140] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the target indication information is transmission configuration indication status information and first indication information, where the first indication information is SRI in DCI, and the network side device configures a virtual SRS resource having a correlation with the uplink channel parameters, the manner of determining the uplink channel parameters according to the target indication information in step S204 in the embodiment of the present application is: Step S121 of determining beam information of a PUSCH based on transmission arrangement instruction state information; The method may further include a step S122 of determining a number of ports and / or precoding information for the PUSCH based on the SRI in the DCI, where the SRI is used to indicate a virtual SRS resource.

[0141] That is, the network configures virtual SRS resources (dummy SRS resources), and these SRS resources are not transmitted and are only used to relate to corresponding PUSCH transmission information (information other than beam). The beam information of the PUSCH is still indicated using the TCI state, and other transmission information uses the transmission information related to the virtual SRS resource indicated by the SRI field. It should be noted that the configuration of the virtual SRS resource by the network side device may be a transmission process of scheduling the PUSCH based on a codebook, or a transmission process of scheduling the PUSCH based on a non-codebook.

[0142] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, when the network side device configures aperiodic SRS resources, determining uplink channel parameters according to the target indication information related to step S204 of the embodiment of the present application may include: Step S131 of determining beam information of PUSCH based on transmission arrangement indication status information or based on SRI in DCI, the beam information of non-periodic SRS resource indicated by SRI is determined based on RRC signaling or MAC CE command or transmission arrangement indication status information sent by network side device; and step S132 of determining the number of ports and / or precoding information associated with aperiodic SRS resources indicated by an SRI in a DCI, or the number of ports and / or precoding information associated with transmission arrangement indication status information, as the number of ports or precoding information of a PUSCH.

[0143] That is, when the network side device configures aperiodic SRS resources and the network does not trigger these SRSs, it can still update the beam of the PUSCH. For example, when the network side device updates the beam information of the aperiodic SRS resource by the TCI field in the RRC, MAC CE, or DCI, the beam information of the PUSCH uses the beam information of this SRS resource. Or, the beam information of the PUSCH can still be indicated using the TCI state, and for other uplink channel parameters other than the beam information, it is determined using a scheme related to this aperiodic SRS resource or related to the TCI state indicated in the TCI field.

[0144] This application does not limit that the PUSCH necessarily uses beam information of the latest SRS.

[0145] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when the target indication information is transmission arrangement indication status information, determining an uplink channel parameter based on the target indication information in step S204 of the embodiment of the present application includes determining at least one uplink channel parameter of a port number, beam information, and precoding information based on the transmission arrangement indication status information, where the transmission arrangement indication status information is related to at least one of the port number, beam information, and precoding information.

[0146] That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, the determination of uplink channel parameters can be performed only according to the transmission configuration indication status information, so that there is no need to determine the channel parameters by SRI signaling in the PUSCH transmission process, thereby saving the signaling overhead of SRI.

[0147] It should be noted that the precoding information in the embodiment of the present application is indicated by the first signaling in the DCI.

[0148] The above describes the present application from the terminal side. For the network side, the embodiment of the present application provides an uplink channel parameter configuration method, and the steps of the method include: The method includes a step S302 of sending target indication information to a network side device terminal, where the target indication information includes at least one of transmission arrangement indication status information and first indication information, and the transmission arrangement indication status information or the first indication information is used to indicate uplink channel parameters of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission.

[0149] According to the method of the embodiment of the present application, the network side equipment can send target indication information to the terminal, and the terminal can determine uplink channel parameters for scheduling PUSCH transmission according to the transmission configuration indication status information and / or the first indication information, thereby avoiding the need to determine uplink channel parameters for PUSCH transmission by SRI signaling in the prior art, thereby saving the overhead of SRI signaling and realizing the scheduling and transmission of PUSCH.

[0150] When the PUSCH is a PUSCH scheduled based on a codebook, and the network side device does not configure a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource in the terminal, the target indication information in the embodiment of the present application is used to indicate uplink channel parameters of the PUSCH transmission. 1) The transmission arrangement indication status information is used to indicate beam information in an uplink channel parameter; 2) the first indication information is used to indicate precoding information in uplink channel parameters.

[0151] As can be seen, the above steps can determine beam information and precoding information of the PUSCH in the uplink channel parameters, and the number of ports in the uplink channel parameters can be realized by determining the number of ports of the PUSCH based on transmission configuration instruction status information related to the number of ports of the PUSCH, or by determining the number of ports of the PUSCH based on the first instruction information or agreed upon by a protocol.

[0152] It should be noted that the number of ports and the format of DCI in the embodiment of the present application have a preset corresponding relationship, and the preset corresponding relationship is determined by a protocol or configured by a network side device. In addition, there is also a corresponding relationship between the precoding information and the number of ports in the embodiment of the present application.

[0153] 2) Transmission that schedules PUSCH based on a codebook. When the network side configures SRS resources, In this application scenario, the SRS resources are: 1) a first SRS resource configured by a network side device; 2) At least one second SRS resource among a plurality of second SRS resources having the same number of ports, which are arranged by a network side device; 3) At least one third SRS resource among a plurality of third SRS resources configured by a network side device, and at least two third SRS resources among the plurality of third SRS resources have different port numbers; 4) At least one fourth SRS resource among multiple fourth SRS resources arranged by a network side device, at least two of the multiple fourth SRS resources have different port numbers, and the at least one transmission arrangement instruction status information is related to the at least one fourth SRS resource among the multiple fourth SRS resources, or the at least one transmission arrangement instruction status information includes at least one of the following: at least one fourth SRS resource among the multiple fourth SRS resources is arranged in the at least one transmission arrangement instruction status information.

[0154] According to the above SRS resource, the target indication information in the embodiment of the present application is used to indicate uplink channel parameters of PUSCH transmission. 1) The transmission arrangement indication status information is used to indicate beam information of a PUSCH; 2) the transmission configuration indication status information or the first indication information is used to indicate SRS resources; 3) The number of ports of the SRS resource is used to indicate the number of ports of the PUSCH; 4) the first indication information is used to indicate precoding information.

[0155] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the SRS resource is configured in the transmission configuration indication status information, or the transmission configuration indication status information is related to the SRS resource, based on which there is an association relationship between the precoding information and the SRS resource, where the beam information of the SRS resource is determined by the transmission configuration indication status information.

[0156] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the steps of the method of the present application include: The method may further include a step S306 of sending configuration information to the terminal when the port number of the SRS resource configured by the network side device does not match the port number of the PUSCH, where the configuration information is used to rearrange the port number of the SRS resource.

[0157] In another optional embodiment of the embodiment of the present application, the target indication information is used to indicate uplink channel parameters of the PUSCH transmission, which includes determining at least one uplink channel parameter among a number of ports, beam information, and precoding information based on the transmission configuration indication status information.

[0158] In another optional embodiment of the embodiment of the present application, the target indication information being used to indicate the uplink channel parameters includes the transmission configuration indication status information being used to indicate beam information of the PUSCH, or the first indication information being used to indicate beam information of the PUSCH.

[0159] Furthermore, the first indication information includes an SRI of the DCI, where the SRI of the DCI is used to indicate at least one of beam information of the PUSCH, the number of ports of the PUSCH, and precoding information of the PUSCH.

[0160] It should be noted that, when a network side device configures a virtual SRS resource having a correlation with an uplink channel parameter, the SRI of the DCI in the first indication information is used to indicate the virtual SRS resource. It should be noted that the virtual SRS resource configured in the network side device can be a transmission process of scheduling a PUSCH based on a codebook, or a transmission process of scheduling a PUSCH based on a non-codebook. Furthermore, the number of ports and / or precoding information of the PUSCH can be determined according to the virtual SRS resource indicated by the SRI in the DCI.
