[0193] In some embodiments, the terminal 101 includes, for example, a mobile phone, a wearable device, an Internet of Things device, a car with communication function, a smart car, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver function, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in self-driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical surgery, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, and at least one of a wireless terminal device in a smart home, but is not limited thereto.

[0194] In some embodiments, the network device 102 is, for example, a node or device that accesses a terminal to a wireless network. The network device may include an evolved NodeB (eNB), a next generation evolved NodeB (ng-eNB), a next generation NodeB (gNB), a node B (NB), a home node B (HNB), a home evolved nodeB (HeNB), a wireless backhaul device, a radio network controller (RNC), a base station controller (BSC), a base transceiver station (BTS), a base band unit (BBU), a mobile switching center, a base station in a 6G communication system, an open base station (Open RAN), a cloud base station (Cloud RAN), a base station in other communication systems, and at least one of an access node in a Wi-Fi system, but is not limited thereto.

[0196] In some embodiments, the network device can be composed of a centralized unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU), where the CU can also be called a control unit. The CU-DU structure can be used to split the protocol layer of the access network device, with the functions of some protocol layers centrally controlled by the CU, and the functions of the remaining part or all of the protocol layers distributed in the DU, which is centrally controlled by the CU, but is not limited to this.

[0197] It can be understood that the communication system described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0198] The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to the communication system 100 shown in FIG1 , or a portion thereof, but are not limited thereto.

[0199] The embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G new radio (NR), future radio access (FRA), new radio access technology (RAT), new radio (NR), new radio access (NX), future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, Ultra-WideBand (UWB), Bluetooth (registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems based on and extending these methods.

[0200] In a codebook-based transmission scheme, the terminal can feedback channel status information (CSI) to the network device based on the channel measurement reference signal sent by the network side. The network device can determine the precoding for downlink data transmission of the terminal based on the CSI fed back by the terminal.

[0201] The types of codebooks in the embodiments of the present disclosure and the applicable scenarios are diverse. For example, they may include a Rel-15 Type II codebook, a Rel-16 Type II codebook, a Rel-17 port selection Type II codebook, an added Rel-18 Type II Doppler codebook for medium and high-speed mobility scenarios, or an enhanced Rel-18 Type II codebook for coherent joint transmission (CJT) scenarios, and the like.

[0202] In some embodiments, for the Rel-15 Type II codebook, the Rel-16 Type II codebook, the Rel-17 port selection Type II codebook, the Rel-18 Type II Doppler codebook added in medium and high speed mobility scenarios, or the enhanced Rel-18 Type II codebook in the CJT scenario, the CSI can be reported in two parts: Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 includes the rank number (Rank), the channel quality indication (CQI), and the number of non-zero coefficients of the Rank=v transmission layers or the wideband combination coefficients. Part 2 includes the indication information of the spatial domain (SD) / frequency domain (FD) / Doppler domain (DD) basis vectors (basis) corresponding to Rank=v, the quantization information of the linear combination coefficients, and the non-zero coefficient position indication information. For the Rel-15 Type I codebook, CSI is not split and can be reported in two parts, Part 1 and Part 2. For the Rel-15 Type II codebook, CSI reporting can report only Part 1 or both Part 1 and Part 2.

[0203] CSI reporting includes periodic and semi-persistent CSI reporting carried on the Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH). Table 1 below shows various combinations of PUCCH-based reporting corresponding to different codebook types.

[0204] Table 1: Various combinations reported on the PUCCH

[0205] CSI reporting also includes semi-persistent and aperiodic CSI reporting carried on the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH). Table 2 below shows various combinations of reporting carried on the PUSCH.

[0206] Table 2: Combinations reported on the PUSCH

[0207] For the above-mentioned Rel-15 Type II codebook, Rel-16 Type II codebook, Rel-17 port selection Type II codebook, the addition of Rel-18 Type II Doppler codebook in medium and high speed mobility scenarios, or the enhanced Rel-18 Type II codebook in CJT scenarios, CSI can be reported aperiodically on the PUSCH.

[0208] The codebook structure of Rel-15 Type II codebook can be expressed as The structure of Rel-16 Type II codebook and Rel-17 port selection Type II codebook can be expressed as: The codebook structure with the Rel-18 Type II Doppler codebook added in the medium- and high-speed mobile scenario can be expressed as Or the codebook structure of the enhanced Rel-18 Type II codebook in the CJT scenario can be expressed as The meanings of the letters in the above codebook structure expression are as follows:

[0209] W is the calculated precoding used for downlink data transmission;

[0210] W1 is composed of multiple SD basis, or the identity matrix, where 1 in the identity matrix represents the port selected by the terminal;

[0211] Indicates the combination coefficient corresponding to SD basis, FD basis and / or DD basis;

[0212] W f Consists of one or more FD basis;

[0213] W d Consists of one or more DD basis;

[0214] W 1,n is the SD basis corresponding to the nth TRP;

[0215] X H represents the conjugate transpose of the matrix X;

[0216] Indicates calculation of the Kronecker product.

[0217] In some embodiments, for each CSI report based on the Rel-15 / 16 Type II or Rel-18 Type II codebook, the CSI report includes indication information such as the SD / FD / DD basis and the combination coefficients of these bases. For each CSI report based on the Rel-17 port selection Type II codebook, the CSI report includes indication information such as the port selection and the port combination coefficients, which are reported in a configured CSI report. The port combination coefficient indication information includes position indication information of non-zero combination coefficients and amplitude and phase quantization information of the non-zero coefficients.

[0218] However, in massive MIMO systems, the SD / FD / DD basis or port selection does not change over time and has a slow-changing nature. Therefore, it is not necessary to include the SD / FD / DD basis or port selection indication in every CSI report. However, the combining coefficient has a fast-changing nature and must be included in every CSI report.

[0219] Therefore, if the SD / FD / DD basis indication information and the combination coefficient indication information can be reported independently, the reporting overhead can be effectively reduced. Therefore, how to report the SD / FD / DD basis indication information and the combination coefficient indication information independently is an urgent problem to be solved.

Indication information such as RI, CQI, non-zero coefficient number indication information, SCI, and non-zero coefficient position, amplitude and phase quantization information are carried on the PUSCH and reported in the second CSI (CSIreport1) transmitted non-periodically, and these indication information are reported in two parts, as shown in Table 3.

With this report Before and with the report The most recent SD / FD basis report is associated (i.e., the first CSI associated with the second CSI is the first CSI whose time domain position is before the second CSI and is closest to the second CSI time domain interval), that is, on the terminal side W1 and W are determined by the association relationship defined above. f On the network side, the network device 102 determines the received combination coefficient related information and the associated SD basis, FD basis and other indication information respectively. W1 and W f , and is used to calculate the precoding of downlink data.

[0333] As another example, the codebooks of the terminal 101 and the network device 102 are Rel-18 Type II codebooks in a medium-high speed mobility scenario, and the terminal 101 feeds back CSI to the network device 102 based on the Rel-18 Type II codebook in the medium-high speed mobility scenario.

The FD basis and DD basis indication information include the FD basis corresponding to each layer under the maximum supported rank. For example, if the maximum supported rank = 4, the CSI part includes the FD basis indication information corresponding to 4 layers. The above-mentioned first CSI and second CSI transmitted aperiodically can be triggered to be reported through one or two first signalings (for example, DCI).

[0335] Table 4: Contents of two CSI parts reported based on Rel-18 Type II codebook in medium- and high-speed mobility scenarios

[0336] Optionally, RI can also be reported together with the indication information of SD basis, FD basis, and DD basis through a configured CSI report (i.e., reported through the first CSI), and reported through CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2, where CSI Part 1 of the first CSI includes RI, or includes RI and SD basis indication information. CSI Part 2 of the first CSI includes FD basis and DD basis indication information corresponding to each layer when rank = v = 4.

[0337] Terminal 101 or network device 102 uses Rel-18 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is also necessary to ensure the combination coefficient and SD / FD basis, i.e. W1 / W f The first CSI (CSI report 2) and the second CSI (CSI report 1) configured by the network device 102 are both associated with the same CSI-RS resource for channel measurement (i.e., the first CSI and the second CSI correspond to the same channel measurement reference signal). With this report Before and with the report The most recent SD / FD basis report is associated (i.e., the first CSI associated with the second CSI is the first CSI whose time domain position is before the second CSI and whose time domain interval is closest to the second CSI), that is, the first CSI reported on the terminal side. W1 and W are determined by the above defined relationship. f 、W d On the network side, the network device 102 determines the received combination coefficient related indication information and the associated SD basis, FD basis and other indication information respectively. W1, W f and W d , and is used to calculate the precoding of downlink data.

[0338] As another example, the codebooks of the terminal 101 and the network device 102 are Rel-18 Type II codebooks in a CJT scenario, and the terminal 101 feeds back CSI to the network device 102 based on the Rel-18 Type II codebook in the CJT scenario.

[0339] For example, network device 102 configures terminal 101 with two types of CSI reporting configuration information: CSIreport1 (for configuring the second CSI) and CSIreport2 (for configuring the first CSI). The CQI, non-zero coefficient number indication information, SCI, and non-zero coefficient indication information are reported in the second CSI (CSI report 1) transmitted aperiodically on the PUSCH, and these indication information are reported in two parts, as shown in Table 5. The RI, CSI-RS resource selection indication, SD basis combination indication for the selected CSI-RS resource, SD basis, phase offset, and FD basis indication information corresponding to N≥1 TRPs or CSI-RS resources are reported in the first CSI (CSI report 2) transmitted aperiodically on the PUSCH, and the SD basis, phase offset, and FD basis indication information are reported independently in one CSI part.

[0340] Table 5: Contents of two CSI parts reported based on the Rel-18 Type II codebook in the CJT scenario

[0341] Optionally, RI, SD basis, phase offset, and FD basis indication information can also be reported through CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2. CSI Part 1 of the first CSI includes RI, CSI-RS resource selection indication information, and SD basis combined indication information selected by the UE (SD basis). CSI Part 2 of the first CSI includes SD basis indication information corresponding to the selected CSI-RS resource and FD basis indication information corresponding to Rank = v (v is determined by the RI indication) transmission layers. Phase offset indication information can be placed in CSI Part 1 or CSI Part 2.

[0342] Terminal 101 or network device 102 uses Rel-18 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is also necessary to ensure the combination coefficient and SD / FD basis, i.e. W1 / W f The first CSI (CSI report 2) and the second CSI (CSI report 1) configured by the network device 102 are both associated with the same PUSCH resource (ie, the first CSI and the second CSI correspond to the same channel type). With this report Before and with the report The most recent SD / FD basis report is associated (i.e., the first CSI associated with the second CSI is the first CSI whose time domain position is before the second CSI and is closest to the second CSI time domain interval), that is, the first CSI reported on the terminal side. W is determined by the association relationship defined above 1,i 、W f 、W d On the network side, the network device 102 determines the received combination coefficient related indication information and the associated SD basis, FD basis and other indication information respectively. W 1,i 、W f and W d , and is used to calculate the precoding of downlink data.

[0343] As another example, the codebooks of the terminal 101 and the network device 102 are Rel-17 Type II port selection codebooks, and the terminal 101 feeds back CSI to the network device 102 based on the Rel-17 Type II port selection codebook.

[0344] For example, network device 102 configures terminal 101 with two types of CSI reporting configuration information: CSI report 1 (used for configuring the second CSI) and CSI report 2 (used for configuring the first CSI). Indication information such as RI, CQI, non-zero coefficient number indication information, SCI, and non-zero coefficients is reported in the second CSI (CSI report 1) transmitted aperiodically on the PUSCH, and this information is reported in two parts, as shown in Table 6. The port selection indication and FD basis are reported in the first CSI (CSI report 2) transmitted periodically or semi-persistently on the Long PUCCH, and the port selection and FD basis indication information is reported independently in a single CSI part.

[0345] Table 6: Contents of the two CSI parts reported in the Rel-17 Type II port selection codebook

[0346] Optionally, the RI, the port selection indication, and the FD basis indication information are reported through one CSI report. It can also be reported through one CSI part because the port selection indication is independent of the values ​​of the FD basis indication and the rank.

[0347] UE or gNB uses the Rel-17 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is necessary to ensure the combination coefficient And port selection / FD basis i.e. W1 / W f Match or associate. Assuming that the port selection and FD basis indication information is reported through the first CSI that is sent periodically or semi-continuously, within one period of the first CSI, the port selection and FD basis indication information (i.e., the first CSI) is reported first, and then the combination coefficient indication quantization information (i.e., the second CSI) is reported. Among them, the indication quantization information of the reported combination coefficient is associated with the port selection and FD basis indication information reported within the period (i.e., the first CSI is periodic or semi-continuous in the time domain, and the second CSI is associated with the first CSI corresponding to the period in which the time domain position of the second CSI is located). That is, on the terminal side, W1 and W are determined by the association relationship defined above. f On the network side, the network device 102 determines the received combination coefficient and other related indication information and the associated port selection, FD basis and other indication information respectively. W1 and W f , and is used to calculate the precoding of downlink data.

[0414] Optionally, the port corresponds to a combination of SD basis and FD basis, the port selection indication is reported in CSI Part 1, and the FD basis can be reported in CSI Part 1 together with the port selection indication.

[0417] Optionally, the quantization information indicating the linear combination coefficients and / or the CQI are reported in a broadband manner via the Long PUCCH, and the time domain behavior of the reporting may be semi-continuous or periodic.

[0418] · Reporting method of quantization information of combination coefficient and / or CQI:

[0419] Optionally, the reporting of the indication quantization information of the combination coefficient and / or CQI is divided into two parts, CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2, where CSI Part 1 includes the indication information of the number of non-zero coefficients in the combination coefficient corresponding to Rank=v transmission layers and / or multiple TRPs, and the wideband CQI and subband CQI indication information corresponding to the first CQI; CSI Part 2 includes the non-zero coefficient position indication information of the combination coefficient and the amplitude and phase quantization information of the non-zero coefficient.

[0420] In some embodiments, RI is reported together with the quantization information indicating the combination coefficient and / or CQI, or together with the indication information on the SD / FD / DD basis. RI and the indication information on the SD / FD / DD basis are reported in one CSI part, or RI and the indication information on the SD / FD / DD basis are reported in two parts via CSI. If reported in two parts via CSI, RI and SD basis are reported in CSI Part 1, while FD / DD basis is reported in CSI Part 2.

[0421] Among the above-reported indication information, at least the SD / FD / DD basis indication reporting and the quantization indication information of the combination coefficient are reported via two different CSI reports. Different CSI reports refer to reporting on different bearer resources, reporting in different time domain behaviors, or reporting via different CSI reporting configurations. That is, the SD / FD / DD basis and the combination coefficient are reported via a combination of the above-mentioned different methods.

[0422] For configuring multiple different aperiodic or semi-persistent CSI reporting configurations, the network side may trigger reporting by sending one or more identical signalings such as DCI and / or MAC-CE.

[0423] At least the SD / FD / DD basis indication report and the quantization indication information of the combination coefficient in the above-mentioned reported indication information need to be associated through two different CSI reports in one or more of the following ways:

[0424] Mode 1: These two different CSI reports are associated with the same channel measurement resource.

[0425] Mode 2: The indication quantization information report of the combination coefficient is associated with the SD / FD / DD basis indication report that is most recent to the indication quantization information report of the combination coefficient.

[0426] Mode 3: If the SD / FD / DD basis is periodic or semi-continuous reporting, the indication quantization information report of the combination coefficient is associated with an SD / FD / DD basis report within the SD / FD / DD basis indication reporting period in which the indication quantization information report of the combination coefficient is located.

[0427] Mode 4: Associating by allocating the same uplink resources, such as allocating the same PUCCH or PUSCH resources.

[0428] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned SD basis / FD basis / DD basis indication may also be replaced by a port selection indication.

[0429] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned CSI reporting does not always include all of the above-mentioned indication information. Under certain network parameter configurations, part of the indication information is not reported to the network side.

[0430] In order to more clearly understand the above scheme, several exemplary embodiments are provided below. The following embodiments only use CSI feedback of a certain codebook type as an example. The reporting method of indication information such as SD / FD / DD basis and combination coefficient described in a certain embodiment may also be applicable to CSI reporting of other Type II codebook types.

[0433] Table 7: Contents reported in two CSI parts of the Rel-16 Type II codebook in related technologies

[0434] In each CSI report, CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2 need to be reported simultaneously. Since the SD basis and FD basis change slowly or remain essentially unchanged within a certain time range, they only need to be reported once within this time range, which reduces the UE's feedback overhead.

[0435] Assume that the gNB configures CSI Report 1 and CSI Report 2 for the UE. Indication information such as RI, CQI, non-zero coefficient number indication, SCI, and non-zero coefficients is reported via the PUSCH in aperiodic CSI Report 1. This information is reported in two parts, as shown in Table 7 above. SD-based and FD-based indication information are reported via the Long PUCCH in periodic or semi-persistent CSI Report 2. The SD-based and FD-based indication information are reported independently in a single CSI part. The FD-based indication information includes the FD-based indication information for each layer under the maximum supported rank. For example, if the maximum supported rank is 4, the CSI part includes FD-based indication information for all four layers.

[0436] Optionally, the RI and SD basis and FD basis indication information are reported through a configured CSI report and reported through CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2, where CSI Part 1 includes RI, or includes RI and SD basis indication information. CSI Part 2 includes FD basis indication information corresponding to each layer when rank = v = 4.

[0437] UE or gNB uses Rel-16 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is necessary to ensure the combination coefficient and SD / FD basis, i.e. W1 / W f Matched or associated because The calculation of depends on W1 and W selected by terminal 101 f If the calculation of precoding is used and W1 / W f If there is no correlation, it will lead to errors in the calculated precoding and reduce system performance. With this report Before and with the report The most recent SD / FD basis report is associated (corresponding to the two different CSI report association methods in the above scheme 2), that is, on the UE side W1 and W are determined by the association relationship defined above. f On the network side, the gNB determines the received combination coefficients and other related indication information based on the SD basis, FD basis and other related indication information.

The RI, one or two wideband CQIs and subband CQIs, non-zero coefficient number indication information, SCI, and non-zero coefficient indication information are reported via the PUSCH in aperiodic CSI Report 1. These indications are reported in two parts, as shown in Table 8 above. The SD-based, FD-based, and DD-based indication information are reported via the PUSCH in aperiodic CSI Report 2. The SD-based, FD-based, and DD-based indication information are reported independently in a single CSI part. The FD-based and DD-based indication information includes the FD-based indication information for each layer under the maximum supported rank. For example, if the maximum supported rank is 4, the CSI part includes FD-based indication information for all four layers. These two aperiodic CSI reports can be triggered by one or two DCI signalings.

[0442] Optionally, the indication information on the RI and SD basis, and on the FD basis and DD basis is reported through a configured CSI report and reported through CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2, where CSI Part 1 includes RI, or includes RI and SD basis indication information. CSI Part 2 includes the FD basis and DD basis indication information corresponding to each layer when rank = v = 4.

[0443] UE or gNB uses the Rel-18 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is also necessary to ensure the combination coefficient and SD / FD basis, i.e. W1 / W f The first CSI (CSI report 2) and the second CSI (CSI report 1) configured by the network device 102 are both associated with the same CSI-RS resource for channel measurement (corresponding to the two different CSI reporting association methods in method 1 in the above solution).

[0445] Currently, CSI feedback based on the Rel-18 Type II codebook in CJT scenarios includes CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2. CSI reporting is carried out via a semi-persistent or aperiodic manner on the PUSCH. The possible contents of CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2 are shown in Table 9.

[0446] Table 9: Contents of two CSI parts reported based on Rel-18 Type II codebook in CJT scenario in related technologies

[0447] Assume that the gNB configures CSI Report 1 and CSI Report 2 for the UE. The CQI, non-zero coefficient number indication, SCI, and non-zero coefficient indication are reported on the PUSCH in aperiodic CSI Report 1. These indications are reported in two parts, as shown in Table 9 above. The RI, CSI-RS resource selection indicator, SD-based combination indication for the selected CSI-RS resource, SD-based, phase offset, and FD-based indication corresponding to N ≥ 1 TRPs or CSI-RS resources are reported on the PUSCH in aperiodic CSI Report 2. The SD-based, phase offset, and FD-based indications are reported independently in a single CSI part. Assume that the RI, SD-based, phase offset, and FD-based indications are reported in both CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2. CSI Part 1 includes the RI, CSI-RS resource selection indication information, and the SD basis combination indication information selected by the UE (SD basis). CSI Part 2 includes the SD basis indication information corresponding to the selected CSI-RS resource and the FD basis indication information corresponding to the Rank = v (v is determined by the RI indication) transmission layers. Phase offset indication information can be placed in either CSI Part 1 or CSI Part 2.

[0448] UE or gNB uses the Rel-18 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is also necessary to ensure the combination coefficient and SD / FD basis, i.e. W1 / W f Match or associate (the following gives a combination of two CSI reporting association methods, namely the combination of method 4 and method 2). The CSI report 1 and CSI report 2 configured by the gNB are both associated with the same PUSCH resource (corresponding to the two different CSI reporting association methods in method 4 in the above scheme).

[0449] Example 4 (CSI Feedback Based on Rel-17 Type II Port Selection Codebook)

[0450] Currently, CSI feedback based on the Rel-17 Type II codebook includes two parts: CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2. CSI reporting is carried out in a semi-persistent or aperiodic manner on the PUSCH. The possible contents of CSI Part 1 and CSI Part 2 are shown in Table 10.

[0451] Table 10: Contents reported in two CSI parts of the Rel-17 Type II port selection codebook in related art

Indication information such as RI, CQI, non-zero coefficient number indication, SCI, and non-zero coefficients is reported via the PUSCH in aperiodic CSI Report 1. These indications are reported in two parts, as shown in Table 10 above. The port selection indication and FD basis indication are reported via the Long PUCCH in periodic or semi-persistent CSI Report 2. The port selection and FD basis indications are reported independently in a single CSI part. Assuming that RI, the port selection indication, and the FD basis indication are reported in a single CSI report, they can also be reported in a single CSI part because the port selection indication is independent of the FD basis indication and rank values.

[0453] UE or gNB uses the Rel-17 Type II codebook structure When calculating precoding, it is necessary to ensure the combination coefficient And port selection / FD basis i.e. W1 / W fMatch or associate. Assuming that the port selection and FD basis indication information are reported through the first CSI that is sent periodically or semi-continuously, within one period of the first CSI, the port selection and FD basis indication information are reported first, and then the combination coefficient indication quantization information is reported. Among them, the reported combination coefficient indication quantization information is associated with the port selection and FD basis indication information reported within the period (corresponding to the two different CSI reporting association methods in method 3 in the aforementioned scheme).
