It should be understood that although the terms first, second, etc. may be used in the present disclosure to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, the first parameter may also be referred to as the second parameter, and similarly, the second parameter may also be referred to as the first parameter. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining". Fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a communication network architecture provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The communication network architecture may include: a core network 11, an access network 12 and a terminal 13. The core network 11 includes several core network devices. The functions of the core network devices are mainly to provide user connection, user management, and service bearing, and to provide an interface to the external network as a bearer network. For example, the core network of the fifth generation mobile communication technology (5th Generation, 5G) new radio (New Radio, NR) system may include access and mobility management function (Access and Mobility Management Function, AMF) entity, user plane function (User Plane Function, UPF) entity and session management function (Session Management Function, SMF) entity and other devices. The access network 12 includes several access network devices 14. The access network in the 5G NR system can be called a new generation of wireless access network (New Generation-Radio Access Network, NG-RAN). The access network device 14 is a device deployed in the access network 12 to provide wireless communication functions for the terminal 13. The access network device 14 may include various forms of macro base stations, micro base stations, relay stations, access points, etc. In systems that use different wireless access technologies, the names of devices with access network device functions may be different. For example, in the 5G NR system, it is called a 5G base station (Next Generation Node B, gNodeB or gNB). With the evolution of communication technology, the name "access network device" may change. For the convenience of description, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned devices that provide wireless communication functions for the terminal 13 are collectively referred to as access network devices. Network access device. The number of terminals 13 is usually multiple, and one or more terminals 13 can be distributed in each cell managed by an access network device 14. The terminal 13 may include various handheld devices with wireless communication functions, vehicle-mounted devices, wearable devices, computing devices or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem, as well as various forms of user equipment, mobile stations (MS), etc. For the convenience of description, the above-mentioned devices are collectively referred to as terminals. The access network device 14 and the core network device communicate with each other through some air technology, such as the NG interface in the 5G NR system. The access network device 14 and the terminal 13 communicate with each other through some air technology, such as the Uu interface. Terminal 13 and terminal 13 (for example, vehicle-mounted equipment and other equipment (such as other vehicle-mounted equipment, mobile phones, road side units (RSU)), etc.)) can communicate with each other through a direct communication interface (such as a PC5 interface). Accordingly, the communication link established based on the direct communication interface can be called a direct link or a side link (SideLink, SL). SL transmission is the direct communication and data transmission between terminals through a side link. Unlike the traditional cellular system in which communication data is received or sent through access network equipment, SL transmission has the characteristics of short delay and low overhead, and is suitable for communication between two terminals with close geographical locations (such as vehicle-mounted equipment and other peripheral devices with close geographical locations). SL technology can be applied to scenarios where various terminals communicate directly, such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication in V2X scenarios and vehicle-to-vehicle communication in SL positioning scenarios. In other words, the terminal in this application refers to any device that communicates using SL technology. The "5G NR system" in the embodiments of the present disclosure may also be referred to as a 5G system or an NR system, and those skilled in the art may understand its meaning. The technical solution described in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to the 5G NR system, and can also be applied to the subsequent evolution system of the 5G NR system. The UE and the terminal in the embodiments of the present disclosure have the same meaning, and the two can be replaced with each other. Some relevant contents involved in the embodiments of the present application are introduced as follows. 1. SL-DRX The sidelink supports SL DRX for unicast (UC), groupcast (GC) and broadcast (BC). Similar parameters (duration, inactivity timer, retransmission timer, cycle) defined for Uu in clause 11 are defined for SL to determine the SL activation time for SL-DRX. During the SL activation time, the UE performs monitoring of the Sidelink Control Information (SCI), and the SCI (i.e., the second stage SCI on PSCCH and PSSCH) is used for data reception. The UE skips monitoring of the SCI for data reception during the SL DRX inactivity time. The SL activation time of a receiving (RX) terminal includes the time when any of its applicable SL on-duration timer(s), SL inactivity-timer(s) or SL retransmission timer(s) (for any of unicast, multicast or broadcast) is running. In addition, the time slots associated with the periodic transmission announced by the transmitting (Transport, TX) terminal and the time when the UE expects a Channel State Information (CSI) report after a CSI request (for unicast) are considered to be the SL activation time of the RX UE. The time of the unicast link establishment procedure specified in clause 5.28.2 of TS 38.321[6] and the time of PC5RRC (Radio Resource Control) reconfiguration with the initial SL-DRX configuration procedure are considered to be the SL activation time of the RX UE. For each pair of source / destination L2ID for unicast or destination L2ID for multicast / broadcast, the TX UE maintains a set of timers corresponding to the SL-DRX timers in the RX UE. When data is available for transmission to one or more RX UEs configured with SL DRX, the TX UE selects resources taking into account the timers maintained at the TX UE to determine the activation time of the RX UE. The relevant configuration parameters of SL-DRX are as follows. SL-DRX-ConfigGC-BC IE SL-DRX-ConfigGC-BC is used for NR sidelink multicast and broadcast communications, and for communication of Direct Link Establishment Request based on unicast / broadcast (TS 24.587

[0057] ) and discovery messages (TS 24.554

[0072] ) to configure DRX related parameters. SL-DRX-ConfigUC IE SL DRX ConfigUC is used to configure SL-DRX related parameters for unicast communication. SL-DRX-ConfigUC-SemiStatic IE SL DRX ConfigUC SemiStatic is used to indicate semi-static SL-DRX related parameters for unicast communication. (II) Configuration of SL-PRS SL-PRS resources refer to time-frequency resources within a time slot of a dedicated SL-PRS resource pool used for SL-PRS transmission. FFS (For Further Study): used for shared resource pools. Characteristics associated with SL-PRS resources include at least: SL-PRS resource ID; SL-PRS comb tooth offset and associated SL-PRS comb tooth dimensions; SL-PRS start symbol and SL-PRS symbol number; SL-PRS frequency domain allocation; Note: Other parameters can be included during identification; FFS: Other time domain aspects (if any). • One SL-PRS resource is uniquely identified by one SL-PRS resource ID in a time slot of a dedicated SL-PRS resource pool. (III) Configuration source The configuration source of SL-PRS is a SL-PRS transmitting terminal or a network device (such as a base station), and the SL-PRS transmitting terminal or the network device configures the SL-PRS receiving terminal. The configuration source of SL-DRX is the SL communication sending terminal (ie, the sending terminal of SL-DRX) or a network device (such as a base station). During the SL positioning process, the SL-PRS is sent by the SL-PRS sending terminal. At this time, if the SL-PRS receiving device is in the sleep stage of SL-DRX, there will be two possible results. One is that the SL-PRS receiving device does not perform the reception and measurement of SL-PRS, which is not conducive to the realization of SL positioning; the other is that the SL-PRS receiving device is forced to wake up in the sleep stage of SL-DRX to perform the reception and measurement of SL-PRS, causing the SL-PRS receiving terminal to consume more power. This application provides a SL-PRS communication method, which, when applied to SL positioning scenarios, can ensure the implementation of SL positioning while avoiding The SL-PRS receiving terminal consumes more power, please refer to the following exemplary embodiments.
