Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present application relates to the field of mobile communications, and in particular to information transmission methods, apparatus, devices and storage media. [Background technology]

[0002] In a wireless communication system, SPS (Semi-Persistent Schedule) data can be utilized between a terminal device and a network device, where the network device configures SPS transmission parameters for the terminal device, the terminal device determines transmission resources configured by the network device according to the SPS transmission parameters configured by the network device, the network device transmits an SPS PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel) on the transmission resources, and the terminal device transmits corresponding feedback information to the network device according to the received SPS PDSCH.

[0003] However, to prevent a decrease in system efficiency due to the discarding of feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH, terminal devices are allowed to delay the transmission of feedback information. However, delaying the transmission of feedback information will disrupt the sequence relationship of the PDSCH. Furthermore, the feedback information whose transmission is delayed will be located after the feedback information whose transmission is not delayed, thereby reducing the transmission accuracy of the feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH.

[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide an information transmission method, apparatus, device, and storage medium that prevent delayed feedback information from affecting the sequence relationship of PDSCH, improve the transmission accuracy of feedback information, and improve the transmission stability of feedback information.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the embodiments of the present application are described in more detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] First, let us interpret the nouns related to this application.

[0023] SPS PDSCH: The NR system has two data transmission modes: dynamic transmission mode and semi-persistent / semi-static transmission mode. Dynamic transmission is characterized by the fact that parameters for each data transmission are indicated by the corresponding Downlink Control Information (DCI).

[0024] Here, the DCI includes information such as the resources used by the PDSCH, the HARQ process number, and the like.

[0025] In addition, semi-persistent / semi-static transmission is characterized in that the transmission resources and transmission mode are configured semi-persistent / semi-static, and the DCI is used to activate / release the corresponding SPS transmission. Once the corresponding SPS is activated, there is no need to send physical layer signaling for subsequent transmissions.

[0026] The network device pre-configures the SPS transmission parameters for the terminal device through higher layer signaling.

[0027] In some embodiments, the SPS transmission parameters include at least one of the following:

[0028] (1) SPS period. (2) Time domain resources. (3) PUCCH resources used to transmit feedback information.

[0029] In some embodiments, the PUCCH format for transmitting feedback information configured by the network device for the SPS PDSCH includes PUCCH format 0 or PUCCH format 1, where the maximum number of bits of feedback information carried by PUCCH format 0 or PUCCH format 2 is 2.

[0030] After the network device configures the SPS transmission parameters for the terminal device, the SPS is activated through the DCI, and the SPS transmission parameters are further indicated in the DCI.

[0031] In some embodiments, the SPS transmission parameters include at least one of the following:

[0032] (1) Frequency domain resources. (2) Feedback time length.

[0033] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, after a network device sends DCI signaling to activate SRS, if there is no dynamic scheduling in the same time domain resource, the network device always sends one SPS PDSCH, and the terminal device also sends one feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH.

[0034] In some embodiments, if the time domain resource determined according to the preconfigured feedback information cannot be used for transmitting the PUCCH, for example, if the time domain symbol occupied by the PUCCH is a downlink symbol, the feedback information of the SPS PDSCH will not be transmitted.

[0035] PDSCH sequence relations: First type: After a terminal device receives a first PDSCH, the HARQ process number corresponding to the first PDSCH is X. Before the terminal transmits feedback information corresponding to the first PDSCH, the terminal does not expect the base station to schedule a second PDSCH carrying the same HARQ process with number X carried in the first PDSCH. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, after transmitting HARQ process X over PDSCH1 and before transmitting feedback information corresponding to HARQ process X, the base station cannot repeat the same HARQ process number for data transmission.

[0036] Second type: The terminal device receives PDSCH1 in slot I, and the feedback information corresponding to PDSCH1 is transmitted in slot J. The terminal device does not expect to receive PDSCH2, whose start symbol is after the start symbol of PDSCH1 and whose feedback information is before the feedback information corresponding to PDSCH1. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the feedback information of PDSCH2, which is scheduled later, cannot be transmitted before the feedback information of PDSCH1.

[0037] The application scenario of this application will be described below.

[0038] FIG. 4 shows a block diagram of a communication system provided by an embodiment of the present application, which may include an access network 12 and a terminal device 13 .

[0039] The access network 12 includes several network devices 120. The network devices 120 may be base stations, which are devices deployed in an access network to provide wireless communication functions to terminal devices. Base stations may include various types of macro base stations, micro base stations, relay stations, access points, etc. In systems using different radio access technologies, devices having base station functions may be called by different names. For example, in an LTE system, they are called eNodeB or eNB, and in a 5G NR-U system, they are called gNodeB or gNB. As communication technologies evolve, the term "base station" may also change. In the embodiments of the present application, for convenience, the above-mentioned devices providing wireless communication functions to terminal devices 13 are collectively referred to as access network devices.

[0040] The terminal device 13 may include various handheld devices, in-vehicle devices, wearable devices, computing devices, or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem, all of which have wireless communication capabilities, as well as various forms of user devices, mobile stations (MS), terminal devices, etc. For ease of explanation, the above devices will be collectively referred to as terminal devices. The access network device 120 and the terminal device 13 communicate with each other via a specific air interface technology, such as the Uu interface.

[0041] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application may be used in a variety of systems, such as a Global System of Mobile communication (GSM®) system, a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA®) system, a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), a Long Term Evolution (LTE®) system, an LTE Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) system, an LTE Time Division Duplex (TDD) system, an Advanced Long Term Evolution (LTE-A) system, a New Radio (NR) system, an evolution of the NR system, an LTE-based access to unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) system, an NR-U system, a Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WIM) system, a LTE-based access to unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) system, a NR-U system, a Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), a LTE-based access to unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U), a NR-U system, a UMTS-based access to unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U ... The present invention can be applied to various communication systems such as Wireless Access (WiMAX) communication systems, Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN), Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), next generation communication systems, or other communication systems.

[0042] Generally speaking, traditional communication systems support a limited number of connections and are easy to implement. However, with the development of communication technologies, mobile communication systems not only support traditional communication, but also support, for example, device-to-device (D2D) communication, machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, machine-type communication (MTC), vehicle-to-everything (V2V) communication, and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) systems. The embodiments of the present application may also be applied to these communication systems.

[0043] FIG. 5 shows a flowchart of an information transmission method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application, which is applied to the terminal device and network device shown in FIG. 4, and the method includes at least part of the following contents:

[0044] At 510, the terminal device determines at least one feedback information associated with the first time domain unit.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present application, a network device pre-configures SPS PDSCH transmission parameters for data transmission to a terminal device, and the terminal device receives the SPS PDSCH transmitted by the network device according to the configured SPS PDSCH transmission parameters.

[0046] Wherein the first time domain unit is one of a plurality of pre-configured time domain units obtained by the terminal device, and the at least one feedback information includes non-delayed feedback information and delayed feedback information.

[0047] In some embodiments, the feedback information includes ACK (Acknowledgement) information or NACK (Negative Acknowledgement) information, where the ACK information is used to indicate that the terminal device has received the SPS PDSCH, and the NACK information is used to indicate that the terminal device has not received the SPS PDSCH.

[0048] The non-delayed feedback information includes feedback information corresponding to a first SPS PDSCH, where the first time domain unit is determined by a feedback time length and is a time domain unit used to transmit the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH. The delayed feedback information includes feedback information of a transmission failure in a second time domain unit, where the feedback information of a transmission failure in the second time domain unit is feedback information corresponding to a second SPS PDSCH, where the second time domain unit is determined by a feedback time length and is a time domain unit used to transmit the feedback information corresponding to the second SPS PDSCH.

[0049] The feedback time length is a time length for a terminal device to transmit feedback information corresponding to an SPS PDSCH after receiving the SPS PDSCH. For example, if the feedback time length is 1 slot, the terminal device receives the SPS PDSCH in the first slot and transmits feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH in the second slot. If the feedback time length is 2 slots, the terminal device receives the SPS PDSCH in the first slot and transmits feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH in the third slot.

[0050] Furthermore, at least one feedback information associated with the first time domain unit includes feedback information of a transmission failure in a second time domain unit, which indicates that the second time domain unit is located before the first time domain unit.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first time domain unit is a slot, or the first time domain unit is a subslot, or the first time domain unit is at least one time domain symbol, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the first time domain unit.

[0052] In some embodiments, the terminal device determines at least one second time domain unit located before the first time domain unit and separated from the first time domain unit by a multiple of the feedback time length, and determines feedback information of a transmission failure in the at least one second time domain unit as feedback information associated with the first time domain unit.

[0053] For example, taking the first time domain unit as a slot, if the first time domain unit is slot 4 and the feedback time length is 1 slot, the time domain units before the first time domain unit are slot 1, slot 2, and slot 3, respectively, where slot 1 is separated from slot 4 by twice the feedback time length, slot 2 is separated from slot 4 by one time the feedback time length, and slot 3 is separated from slot 4 by zero times the feedback time length, then feedback information of transmission failures in slot 1, slot 2, and slot 3 is determined as feedback information associated with the first time domain unit.

[0054] In some other embodiments, the time domain unit for transmitting the second SPS PDSCH determined by the terminal device precedes the first time domain unit, and the time domain length away from the first time domain unit is less than or equal to the maximum delay length.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present application, a maximum delay length is set, and the maximum delay length is used to control the length of time that transmission of feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH can be delayed. For example, if the maximum delay length is 3 slots and the feedback time length is 1 slot, and the terminal device receives the SPS PDSCH in the first slot, the feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH will be transmitted in the fifth slot at the latest, and after the fifth slot, the feedback information will not be transmitted again.

[0056] For example, taking the first time domain unit as a slot, if the first time domain unit is slot 4 and the feedback time length is 1 slot, the time domain units before the first time domain unit are slot 1, slot 2, and slot 3, respectively, where slot 1 is separated from slot 4 by twice the feedback time length, slot 2 is separated from slot 4 by one time the feedback time length, and slot 3 is separated from slot 4 by zero times the feedback time length, then feedback information of transmission failures in slot 1, slot 2, and slot 3 is determined as feedback information associated with the first time domain unit.

[0057] At 520, the terminal device determines at least one PUCCH resource according to the at least one feedback information.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal device determines at least one feedback information associated with the first time domain unit, and further determines at least one PUCCH resource that meets the requirement based on the number of bits of the at least one feedback information.

[0059] Wherein, the network device pre-configures the PUCCH resource used to transmit information to the terminal device, for example, the terminal device obtains two PUCCH resources in one slot, the two PUCCH resources being a first PUCCH resource and a second PUCCH resource respectively, and the first PUCCH resource and the second PUCCH resource are both configured by the network device.

[0060] In some embodiments, the number of bits carried by the PUCCH resources preconfigured by the network device for the terminal device is different. For example, the network device configures two PUCCH resources for the terminal device, namely, a first PUCCH resource and a second PUCCH resource, where the first PUCCH resource carries up to two bits of feedback information and the second PUCCH resource carries more than two bits of feedback information. Alternatively, the PUCCH resources can carry other numbers of bits of information, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit the PUCCH resources configured by the network device for the terminal device.

[0061] In some embodiments, the terminal device determines at least one PUCCH resource according to a total number of bits of delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information included in the at least one piece of feedback information.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device determines the PUCCH resource according to the size of the total number of bits of the delayed feedback information and the non-delayed feedback information and the number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource.

[0063] For example, if the total number of bits of the delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information is 6 bits and the maximum number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is 8 bits, this means that the number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is greater than the total number of bits of the delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information, and these feedback information can be carried.

[0064] As another example, if the total number of bits of the delayed feedback information and the non-delayed feedback information is 6 bits and the maximum number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is 2 bits, this means that the maximum number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is smaller than the total number of bits of the delayed feedback information and the non-delayed feedback information, and these feedback information cannot be carried.

[0065] In some embodiments, the terminal device determines the at least one PUCCH resource according to the number of bits of non-delayed feedback information included in the at least one feedback information.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device determines the PUCCH resource according to the size of the number of bits of non-delayed feedback information and the number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource.

[0067] For example, if the number of bits of non-delayed feedback information is 1 bit and the maximum number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is 2 bits, it means that the number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is greater than the total number of bits of non-delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information can be carried.

[0068] As another example, if the number of bits of non-delayed feedback information is 4 bits and the maximum number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is 2 bits, it means that the maximum number of bits that can be carried by the PUCCH resource is smaller than the total number of bits of non-delayed feedback information, and the non-delayed feedback information cannot be carried.

[0069] At 530, the terminal device determines, according to the at least one PUCCH resource, feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present application, after determining the PUCCH resource capable of carrying the feedback information, the terminal device needs to determine the feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit according to whether the PUCCH resource is available.

[0071] In some embodiments, the terminal device determines a first PUCCH resource according to the total number of bits of delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information included in at least one feedback information, and if the first PUCCH resource is available, the terminal device determines that the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit includes delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information.

[0072] In another embodiment, the terminal device determines a first PUCCH resource according to the total number of bits of delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information included in at least one feedback information, and determines a second PUCCH resource according to the number of bits of non-delayed feedback information, and if the first PUCCH resource is unavailable and the second PUCCH resource is available, the terminal device determines that the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit includes non-delayed feedback information.

[0073] Here, when the terminal device determines that the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit includes non-delayed feedback information, it clears the delayed feedback information in the at least one feedback information.

[0074] In some embodiments, the terminal device clearing the delayed feedback information in the at least one feedback information may be replaced by any of the following:

[0075] (1) The terminal device discards delayed feedback information in at least one piece of feedback information. (2) The terminal device cancels delayed feedback information in at least one piece of feedback information. (3) The terminal device skips delayed feedback information in at least one piece of feedback information. (4) The terminal device does not store delayed feedback information in at least one piece of feedback information.

[0076] For example, as shown in Figure 6, take the time domain unit as a slot. Feedback information of SPS PDSCH 0 and SPS PDSCH 1 in slot n is transmitted in slot n+1, but this slot is a downlink slot and cannot transmit feedback information, so the corresponding feedback information needs to be delayed. Feedback information of SPS PDSCH 2 and SPS PDSCH 3 in slot n+1 is transmitted in slot n+2, but this slot is a downlink slot and cannot transmit feedback information, so the corresponding feedback information needs to be delayed. Feedback information of SPS PDSCH 4 and SPS PDSCH 5 in slot n+2 is transmitted in slot n+3. If only 2-bit feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCH 4 and SPS PDSCH 5 is transmitted in slot n+3, PUCCH resource 1 is used, and the time domain symbols occupied by PUCCH resource 1 are all uplink symbols, i.e., PUCCH resource 1 is usable. However, to transmit 6-bit feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCHs 0 to 5 in slot n+3, PUCCH resource 2 needs to be used. However, the time domain symbols occupied by PUCCH resource 2 include downlink symbols, that is, PUCCH resource 2 is unavailable. Therefore, the terminal device determines that 2-bit feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCHs 4 and 5 is to be transmitted in slot n+3, and clears the feedback information of SPS PDSCHs 0 to 3.

[0077] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application only describes whether a PUCCH resource is available as an example. In another embodiment, a method for determining whether a PUCCH resource is unavailable is described.

[0078] In some embodiments, the unavailability of PUCCH resources means: The time domain symbols occupied by the PUCCH resource include at least one of the following situations:

[0079] (1) Downstream time domain symbol. (2) Flexible time domain symbology. (3) The time domain symbols occupied by the broadcast channel. (4) The time domain symbol occupied by the synchronization channel. (5) The time domain symbol occupied by the downstream reference symbol. (6) The time domain symbol occupied by the control channel. (7) Time domain symbols preconfigured by the network device.

[0080] Here, if the time domain symbols in the PUCCH resource include at least one of the following time domain symbols, it means that the time domain symbols in the PUCCH resource cannot be used for uplink transmission, and it means that the PUCCH resource is unavailable.

[0081] In some other embodiments, the availability of a PUCCH resource and the unavailability of a PUCCH resource are opposite conditions, and the terminal device determines that the PUCCH resource is available if it determines that the PUCCH resource does not meet the unavailability condition.

[0082] In some other embodiments, the terminal device may also determine whether a PUCCH resource is available according to whether the PUCCH resource includes the following time domain symbols:

[0083] (1) The time domain symbols occupied by the PUCCH resources are uplink symbols. (2) The time domain symbols occupied by the PUCCH resources do not include downlink symbols, time domain symbols occupied by the broadcast channel, and time domain symbols occupied by the synchronization channel.

[0084] If the terminal device determines that the time domain symbol occupied by the PUCCH resource is in one of the above two situations, it means that the PUCCH resource is an available resource.

[0085] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application only exemplifies determining the feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit from at least one feedback information. In another embodiment, the at least one feedback information associated with the time domain unit obtained by the terminal device includes feedback information corresponding to multiple SPS PDSCHs, and the HARQ processes carried by the multiple SPS PDSCHs are different.

[0086] Here, for a method for a terminal device to control the HARQ processes carried by multiple SPS PDSCHs to be different, please refer to the method shown in FIG. 7 below.

[0087] An embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, which determines a PUCCH resource that meets requirements according to feedback information associated with a first time domain unit, and determines feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit from at least one piece of feedback information according to the PUCCH resource, ensures that the transmitted feedback information meets the transmission requirements, and the remaining feedback information does not need to be transmitted, ensures that the delayed feedback information does not affect the sequence relationship of the PDSCH, improves the transmission accuracy of the feedback information, and also improves the transmission stability of the feedback information.

[0088] The embodiment of Figure 5 illustrates a method for a terminal device to determine feedback information according to at least one feedback information and a PUCCH resource. In another embodiment, if the target information determined by the terminal device is empty, the terminal device determines feedback information according to a third time domain unit located after the first time domain unit. Specifically, refer to the embodiment of Figure 7.

[0089] At 710, if the terminal device determines that the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit is empty, it determines at least one feedback information associated with a third time domain unit.

[0090] In an embodiment of the present application, if the feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit determined by the terminal device through the above steps 510 to 530 is empty, it indicates that the first time domain unit cannot transmit feedback information at present, and the terminal device needs to obtain at least one feedback information associated with the third time domain unit according to the third time domain unit located after the first time domain unit.

[0091] In some embodiments, the terminal device determines a first PUCCH resource according to the total number of bits of delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information included in at least one feedback information, and if the first PUCCH resource is unavailable, the terminal device determines that the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit is empty.

[0092] In another embodiment, the terminal device determines a first PUCCH resource according to the total number of bits of delayed feedback information and non-delayed feedback information included in at least one feedback information, and determines a second PUCCH resource according to the number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information; and if the first PUCCH resource is unavailable and the second PUCCH resource is unavailable, the terminal device determines that the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit is empty.

[0093] Here, the process by which the terminal device determines at least one feedback information associated with the third time domain unit is similar to step 510 and is not repeated here.

[0094] At 720, the terminal device determines at least one PUCCH resource according to the at least one feedback information.

[0095] At 730, the terminal device determines, according to the at least one PUCCH resource, feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit.

[0096] Here, steps 720 to 730 are similar to steps 520 to 530 described above, and therefore will not be repeated here.

[0097] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application only exemplify determining feedback information according to the third time domain unit when the feedback information is empty. In some other embodiments, when the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit is empty, first determine whether the third time domain unit located after the first time domain unit includes a PUCCH resource; if not, obtain the fourth time domain unit located after the third time domain unit, and continue to determine whether the fourth time domain unit includes a PUCCH resource; if it is determined that the time domain unit includes a PUCCH resource, perform step 710.

[0098] For example, the steps of an embodiment of the present application will be described with reference to FIG. 6. If the first time domain unit determined by the terminal device is slot n, the terminal device skips slot n because slot n is a downlink slot and does not include a PUCCH resource. Next, the terminal device determines feedback information associated with slot n+1, and skips slot n+1 because slot n+1 is a downlink slot and does not include a PUCCH resource. Next, the terminal device determines feedback information associated with slot n+2, and skips slot n+2 because slot n+2 is a downlink slot and does not include a PUCCH resource. Next, the terminal device determines that feedback information associated with slot n+3 includes feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCH 0-5 and has a bit length of 6. The terminal device determines PUCCH resource 2, and some of the symbols occupied by PUCCH resource 2 are downlink symbols, which means that the PUCCH resource is unavailable, and therefore the terminal device determines that the feedback information to be transmitted in slot n+3 is empty. Next, the terminal device determines feedback information associated with slot n+4, and if slot n+4 is a downlink slot and does not include a PUCCH resource, the terminal device determines that the feedback information to be transmitted in slot n+4 is empty and skips slot n+4. Next, if the terminal device determines that feedback information associated with slot n+5 includes feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCHs 4 to 8 and the number of bits is 5, the terminal device determines PUCCH resource 2, and because the symbols occupied by PUCCH resource 2 are all uplink symbols, the terminal device determines that PUCCH resource 2 is available, and feedback information for SPS PDSCHs 4 to 8 is transmitted in slot n+5.

[0099] In the method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device first determines whether the time domain unit located after the first time domain unit includes a PUCCH resource; if not, directly skips the time domain unit, and continues to determine whether the next time domain unit includes a PUCCH resource, thereby improving the execution efficiency of the terminal device.

[0100] Note that the above example is described only in terms of time domain units, in other embodiments it can also be described in terms of SPS PDSCH.

[0101] For example, taking the case where the maximum feedback delay length is 2 slots as an example, FIG. 6 will be used for explanation. If the slot of the first SPS PDSCH received by the terminal device is slot n+2, feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH needs to be transmitted in slot n+3. The first time domain unit determined by the terminal device is slot n+3, and the feedback information associated with slot n+3 includes feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCHs 0 to 5 and has a bit length of 6. The terminal device determines PUCCH resource 2, which contains downlink symbols, meaning that PUCCH resource 2 is unavailable. Therefore, the terminal device determines that the feedback information to be transmitted in slot n+3 is empty. Next, the terminal device determines the next slot n+4, which does not contain a PUCCH resource, meaning that slot n+4 cannot transmit feedback information, and skips slot n+4. Next, if the terminal device determines that the feedback information associated with slot n+5 includes feedback information corresponding to SPS PDSCHs 4 to 8 and the number of bits is 5, it determines PUCCH resource 2. Because the symbols occupied by PUCCH resource 2 are all uplink symbols, the terminal device determines that PUCCH resource 2 is available, and the feedback information of SPS PDSCHs 0 to 3 is no longer transmitted, and the feedback information of SPS PDSCHs 4 to 8 is transmitted in slot n+5.

[0102] In the method provided by the embodiments of the present application, if the feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit is empty, the terminal device continues to determine a PUCCH resource that meets the requirements according to the feedback information associated with the next time domain, and determines feedback information that can be transmitted in the first time domain unit from at least one piece of feedback information according to the PUCCH resource, ensuring that the transmitted feedback information meets the transmission requirements, and the remaining feedback information does not need to be transmitted. This ensures that feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH can be transmitted, preventing feedback information from being unable to be transmitted. The delayed feedback information will not affect the sequence relationship of the PDSCH, improving the transmission accuracy of the feedback information and also improving the transmission stability of the feedback information.

[0103] It should be noted that the embodiments of Figures 5 and 7 only exemplify how a terminal device determines feedback information to be transmitted in the first time domain unit. In another embodiment, the network device also determines feedback information to be received in the first time domain unit according to at least one feedback information associated with the first time domain unit, and for a specific method, please refer to Figure 8. The method includes:

[0104] At 810, the network device determines at least one feedback information associated with the first time domain unit.

[0105] Wherein the at least one feedback information includes non-delayed feedback information and delayed feedback information, the non-delayed feedback information includes feedback information corresponding to a first SPS PDSCH, the first time domain unit is determined by the feedback time length and is a time domain unit used to transmit the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH, the delayed feedback information includes feedback information of a transmission failure in a second time domain unit, the feedback information of a transmission failure in the second time domain unit is feedback information corresponding to a second SPS PDSCH, the second time domain unit is determined by the feedback time length and is a time domain unit used to transmit the feedback information corresponding to the second SPS PDSCH, and the second time domain unit is located before the first time domain unit.

[0106] In some embodiments, the time domain unit for transmitting the second SPS PDSCH precedes the first time domain unit and is a time domain length away from the first time domain unit that is less than or equal to a maximum delay length.

[0107] In some embodiments, the at least one feedback information includes feedback information corresponding to multiple SPS PDSCHs, and the HARQ processes carried by the multiple SPS PDSCHs are different.

[0108] Here, the first time domain unit is a slot, or the first time domain unit is a subslot, or the first time domain unit is at least one time domain symbol.

[0109] At 820, the network device determines at least one PUCCH resource according to the at least one feedback information.

[0110] Here, the process of steps 810 to 820 is similar to steps 510 to 520 described above, and therefore will not be repeated here.

[0111] At 830, the network device determines, according to the at least one PUCCH resource, feedback information received in the first time domain unit.

[0112] In some embodiments, the at least one PUCCH resource includes a first PUCCH resource, and the first PUCCH resource is determined according to a total number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information and the delayed feedback information.

[0113] Here, determining the feedback information to be received in the first time domain unit according to at least one PUCCH resource includes: if the first PUCCH resource is available, the feedback information to be received in the first time domain unit includes non-delayed feedback information and delayed feedback information.

[0114] In some other embodiments, the at least one PUCCH resource includes a first PUCCH resource and a second PUCCH resource, the first PUCCH resource is determined according to the total number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information and the delayed feedback information, and the second PUCCH resource is determined according to the number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information.

[0115] Here, determining the feedback information to be received in the first time domain unit according to at least one PUCCH resource includes: if the first PUCCH resource is unavailable and the second PUCCH resource is available, the feedback information to be received in the first time domain unit includes non-delayed feedback information.

[0116] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application only exemplarily describes that the network device determines that the feedback information received in the first time domain unit is not empty. In another embodiment, if the feedback information transmitted in the first time domain unit is empty, the network device determines at least one feedback information associated with a third time domain unit, where the third time domain unit is located after the first time domain unit.

[0117] In some embodiments, the at least one PUCCH resource includes a first PUCCH resource, and the first PUCCH resource is unavailable, where the first PUCCH resource is determined according to the total number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information and the delayed feedback information.

[0118] In some other embodiments, the at least one PUCCH resource includes a first PUCCH resource and a second PUCCH resource, and the first PUCCH resource is unavailable, where the first PUCCH resource is determined according to the total number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information and the delayed feedback information, and the second PUCCH resource is determined according to the number of bits of the non-delayed feedback information.

[0119] In some embodiments, the unavailability of PUCCH resources means: The time domain symbols occupied by the PUCCH resource include at least one of the following situations:

[0120] (1) Downstream time domain symbol. (2) Flexible time domain symbology. (3) The time domain symbols occupied by the broadcast channel. (4) The time domain symbol occupied by the synchronization channel. (5) The time domain symbol occupied by the downstream reference symbol. (6) The time domain symbol occupied by the control channel. (7) Time domain symbols preconfigured by the network device.

[0121] Here, the process of step 830 is similar to the process of step 530 and steps 710 to 730 described above, and therefore will not be repeated here.

[0122] It should be noted that the embodiment of FIG. 8 of the present application can be combined with the embodiment of FIG. 5 or FIG. 7 above, but the present application is not limited thereto.

[0123] An embodiment of the present application provides an information transmission method, which determines a PUCCH resource that meets requirements according to feedback information associated with a first time domain unit, and determines feedback information that can be transmitted in the first time domain unit from at least one piece of feedback information according to the PUCCH resource, ensures that the transmitted feedback information meets the transmission requirements, and the remaining feedback information does not need to be transmitted, ensures that the delayed feedback information does not affect the sequence relationship of the PDSCH, improves the transmission accuracy of the feedback information, and also improves the transmission stability of the feedback information.

[0124] FIG. 9 shows a flowchart of an information transmission method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application, which is applied to the terminal device shown in FIG. 4, and the method includes at least part of the following contents:

[0125] At 910, the terminal device receives a first SPS PDSCH using a first time domain unit.

[0126] The first SPS PDSCH carries a first HARQ process, and feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH is transmitted through a second time domain unit, which is a time domain unit after the transmission of the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH is delayed or a time domain unit after the transmission of the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH is not delayed.

[0127] In an embodiment of the present application, when a network device transmits a first SPS PDSCH to a terminal device through a first time domain unit, the terminal device receives the first SPS PDSCH through the first time domain unit.

[0128] At 920, if the time domain unit before the second time domain unit includes a third time domain unit and the second SPS PDSCH carries a first HARQ process, perform an expiration process on the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH.

[0129] Here, the third time domain unit is used to transmit the second SPS PDSCH.

[0130] In an embodiment of the present application, when a terminal device receives a first SPS PDSCH in a first time domain unit and the time domain unit transmitting feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH is a second time domain unit, if a second SPS PDSCH having the same HARQ process as that carried by the first SPS PDSCH exists before the second time domain unit, the terminal device performs an expiration process on the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH to prevent sequence confusion from occurring.

[0131] In some embodiments, the expiry processing of the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH by the terminal device includes clearing the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH.

[0132] Here, the terminal device clearing the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH may also be replaced with any of the following:

[0133] (1) The terminal device discards the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH. (2) The terminal device cancels the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH. (3) The terminal device skips the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH. (4) The terminal device does not store feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH.

[0134] For example, as shown in Figure 10, two SPS PDSCHs are configured in each of slots n to n+3, where the two SPS PDSCHs in slot n carry HARQ process 0 and HARQ process 7, respectively, the two SPS PDSCHs in slot n+1 carry HARQ process 1 and HARQ process 8, respectively, the two SPS PDSCHs in slot n+2 carry HARQ process 2 and HARQ process 0, respectively, and the two SPS PDSCHs in slot n+3 carry HARQ process 3 and HARQ process 1, respectively. If the first SPS PDSCH received by the terminal device in slot n carries HARQ process 0 and is transmitted in slot n+4 while a second SPS PDSCH carrying HARQ process 0 exists in slot n+2, the terminal device needs to perform revocation processing on the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH.

[0135] In another embodiment, the terminal device performing an expiration process on the second SPS PDSCH includes the terminal device not receiving the second SPS PDSCH in a third time domain unit.

[0136] In some other embodiments, if the terminal device receives a dynamic scheduling PDSCH before the second time domain unit, and the dynamic scheduling PDSCH carries a second HARQ process, the terminal device transmits corresponding feedback information according to the received dynamic scheduling PDSCH and does not need to perform step 920.

[0137] In the method provided by the embodiments of the present application, the terminal device determines a second time-domain unit to carry corresponding feedback information according to the SPS PDSCH received in the first time-domain unit. If there is a third time-domain unit located before the second time-domain unit and carrying the same HARQ process as the SPS PDSCH, and the feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH received in the first time-domain unit has not yet been transmitted at this time, the terminal device cannot receive the second SPS PDSCH carrying the same HARQ process. Therefore, the terminal device performs a revocation process on the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH, thereby preventing PDSCH sequence disruption caused by carrying the same HARQ process. This improves the accuracy and stability of feedback information transmission.

[0138] The embodiment of Figure 9 shows a process of how a terminal device performs an expiration process on feedback information corresponding to an SPS PDSCH or a second SPS PDSCH, and the network device also determines how the terminal device performs an expiration process on feedback information corresponding to an SPS PDSCH or a second SPS PDSCH, and then determines how to perform subsequent processing. Below, Figure 11 shows a flowchart of an information transmission method provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 11, the method includes:

[0139] At 1110, the network device transmits a first SPS PDSCH over a first time domain unit.

[0140] Here, the first SPS PDSCH carries a first HARQ process, and the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH is transmitted through a second time domain unit.

[0141] The process of step 1110 is similar to step 910 above and will not be repeated here.

[0142] At 1120, if the time domain unit located before the second time domain unit includes a third time domain unit, and the third time domain unit is used to transmit a second SPS PDSCH, the network device determines that the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH is stale.

[0143] Here, the second SPS PDSCH carries the first HARQ process.

[0144] In an embodiment of the present application, when a network device transmits a first SPS PDSCH in a first time domain unit and receives feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH in a second time domain unit, if a second SPS PDSCH carrying the same HARQ process as the first SPS PDSCH exists before the second time domain unit, the terminal device and the network device need to perform an invalidation process on the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH to prevent sequence confusion from occurring, and the network device needs to determine the feedback information or SPS PDSCH that has been invalidated by the terminal device.

[0145] In some other embodiments, determining by the network device that the second SPS PDSCH is stale includes the network device not transmitting the second SPS PDSCH in the third time domain unit.

[0146] In addition, after the terminal device performs an expiration process on the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH, the terminal device transmits other feedback information except the feedback information on which the expiration process has been performed in a second time domain unit, and the network device receives the feedback information transmitted from the terminal device in the second time domain unit.

[0147] In some other embodiments, if the network device transmits a dynamic scheduling PDSCH before the second time domain unit, and the dynamic scheduling PDSCH carries a second HARQ process, the network device receives corresponding feedback information according to the received dynamic scheduling PDSCH and does not need to perform step 1120.

[0148] According to the method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the network device determines a second time domain unit for transmitting corresponding feedback information according to the SPS PDSCH transmitted in the first time domain unit. If there is a third time domain unit located before the second time domain unit and carrying the same HARQ process as the SPS PDSCH, and the feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH received in the first time domain unit has not yet been transmitted at this time, the network device determines that the feedback information corresponding to the first SPS PDSCH or the second SPS PDSCH is out of date. This prevents PDSCH sequence disruptions caused by carrying the same HARQ process, and improves the accuracy and stability of feedback information transmission.
