[0035] In the above embodiment, on the one hand, this embodiment can refine the granularity of ignoring to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, rather than the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration. Therefore, when the terminal executes the ignoring mechanism, the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration will not be entirely ignored due to the relatively low priority parameter of the channel state information report, thereby causing the channel state information corresponding to multiple sub-configurations to be ignored. On the other hand, this embodiment determines the priority parameter based on the index of the sub-configuration related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, which is conducive to ensuring that the priority parameter determined for the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration can relatively accurately represent the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0036] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration is positively correlated with an index of the sub-configuration.

[0037] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, the first information includes a first value, where the first value is used to indicate a maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for the single channel state information report.

[0038] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, the maximum number is determined based on at least one of the following: signaling from a network device; a predefined rule; or capability information sent by the terminal to the network device.

Therefore, when the terminal executes the ignoring mechanism, the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration will not be entirely ignored due to the relatively low priority parameter of the channel state information report, thereby causing the channel state information corresponding to multiple sub-configurations to be ignored. On the other hand, this embodiment determines the priority parameter based on the index of the sub-configuration related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, which is conducive to ensuring that the priority parameter determined for the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration can relatively accurately represent the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

For example, step S203 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S204 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, and steps S203+S204 may be implemented as independent embodiments, but are not limited thereto.

[0191] In some embodiments, steps S203 and S204 may be executed in an interchangeable order or simultaneously.

[0192] In some embodiments, step S203 is optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or replaced in different embodiments.

[0193] In some embodiments, step S204 is optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or replaced in different embodiments.

[0194] In some embodiments, reference may be made to other optional implementations described before or after the description corresponding to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B .

[0195] In some embodiments, in order to reduce power consumption, for example in a Network Energy Saving (NES) scenario, network devices can dynamically adjust (e.g., reduce) the number of spatial elements corresponding to downlink data based on dynamic changes in transmission load, thereby reducing network energy consumption.

[0196] In some embodiments, a network device may configure multiple sub-configurations for a channel state information report configuration (CSI report config), or may describe a channel state information report as corresponding to multiple sub-configurations. For example, the configuration information in different sub-configurations may be different. For example, a sub-configuration may include spatial relationships, and the spatial relationships of different sub-configurations may be different. Thus, a terminal may obtain different CSIs by measuring CSI-RS based on different sub-configurations. Each CSI corresponds to a sub-configuration, and a channel state information report configuration corresponds to multiple CSIs. Since CSI is obtained by measuring multiple sub-configurations, it is beneficial to ensure that the CSI reported to the network device can more accurately represent the channel state, thereby improving CSI reporting performance.

[0197] In the legacy mechanism, a CSI report configuration only corresponds to one CSI. Therefore, compared with the legacy mechanism, the number of bits occupied by multiple CSIs determined based on the sub-configuration will increase compared with the number of bits occupied by one CSI determined based on the legacy mechanism.

[0198] In some embodiments, due to the limited processing capability of the terminal, a mechanism for dropping CSI reports may be implemented. For example, the priority of the CSI reports may be determined, and one or more CSI reports may be dropped based on the processing capability of the terminal.

[0199] However, the granularity of the current ignoring mechanism is the CSI report. If the CSI report config of the CSI report to be ignored corresponds to multiple CSIs, all of these CSIs will be ignored. However, the terminal consumes a lot of resources to determine these multiple CSIs. If multiple CSIs are directly ignored, it will result in a large waste of resources for the terminal.

[0200] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method. Figure 3 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The information processing method illustrated in this embodiment can be executed by a terminal.

[0201] As shown in FIG3 , the information processing method may include the following steps:

[0202] In step S301, a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the subconfiguration is determined according to the index of the subconfiguration corresponding to the first channel state information report and the first information;

[0203] In step S302, a method of sending the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration to the network device is determined according to the priority parameter.

[0204] It should be noted that the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 can be implemented independently or in combination with at least one other embodiment in the present disclosure. The specific selection can be made as needed and the present disclosure does not limit it.

[0205] In some embodiments, the first information may include information used in a traditional ignore mechanism to determine a CSI report priority parameter. This disclosure will not describe this in detail, and reference may be made to subsequent embodiments for details.

[0206] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining a priority parameter for channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration corresponding to a first channel state information report, the terminal may consider the index of the subconfiguration. The determined priority parameter is then correlated with the subconfiguration index. Furthermore, based on the priority parameter, a manner of transmitting the channel state information corresponding to the subconfiguration to the network device may be determined, thus taking the subconfiguration into consideration.

[0207] In some embodiments, a method of sending the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration to the network device includes at least one of the following:

[0208] Sending the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration to the network device and the relationship between the reporting resources;

[0209] When the channel state information exceeds the terminal processing capability, the channel state information corresponding to which sub-configurations should be reported or ignored.

[0210] Based on this, on the one hand, this embodiment can refine the granularity of ignoring to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, rather than the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration. Therefore, when the terminal executes the ignoring mechanism, it will not ignore the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration entirely due to the relatively low priority parameter of the channel state information report, thereby causing the problem of ignoring the channel state information corresponding to multiple sub-configurations. On the other hand, this embodiment determines the priority parameter based on the index of the sub-configuration related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, which is conducive to ensuring that the priority parameter determined for the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration can relatively accurately represent the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0211] In some embodiments, a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration is positively correlated with an index of the sub-configuration.

[0212] For example, the smaller the sub-configuration index, the smaller the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration; the larger the sub-configuration index, the larger the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0213] For example, the priority parameter may be negatively correlated with the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. For example, the smaller the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, the higher the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration; for example, the larger the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, the lower the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. Then, when the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report exceeds the terminal processing capacity, the channel state information with relatively low priority in the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report, that is, the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with relatively large index, may be preferentially ignored.

[0214] It should be noted that the relationship between the sub-configuration index and the priority parameter can be negatively correlated in addition to the positive correlation mentioned above, and the relationship between the priority parameter and the priority can be positively correlated in addition to the negative correlation mentioned above, which is determined based on a specific calculation formula.

[0215] The following embodiments are mainly exemplified in the case where the index of the sub-configuration is positively correlated with the priority parameter, and the priority parameter is negatively correlated with the priority.

[0216] In some embodiments, the first information includes a first value, and the first value is used to indicate the maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for the single channel state information report.

[0217] In addition to including information used to determine the CSI report priority parameter in the traditional ignore mechanism, the first information may also include a first value, which can be used to indicate the maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for a single channel state information report.

[0218] Since the first value is used to indicate the maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for a single channel state information report, it is also related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. In the process of calculating the priority parameter, more parameters related to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration are introduced, which is conducive to the calculated priority parameter to more accurately ensure the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0219] In some embodiments, the maximum number is determined based on at least one of: signaling from a network device; a predefined rule; and capability information sent by the terminal to the network device.

[0220] In some embodiments, the first information includes a first numerical value, and the first numerical value is used to indicate the number of sub-configurations corresponding to the first channel state information report.

[0221] In addition to including information used to determine the CSI report priority parameter in the traditional ignore mechanism, the first information may also include a first numerical value, which can be used to indicate the number of sub-configurations corresponding to the first channel state information report.

[0222] Since the first numerical value is used to indicate the number of sub-configurations corresponding to the first channel state information report, it is also related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. In the process of calculating the priority parameter, more parameters related to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration are introduced, which is conducive to the calculated priority parameter to more accurately ensure the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0223] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first numerical value is used to indicate the number of subconfigurations corresponding to the first channel state information report. For example, the channel state information subconfiguration sub-configuration #1 corresponding to the priority parameter calculated by the first numerical value belongs to the subconfiguration corresponding to the first channel state information report CSI report #1, and the first numerical value indicates the number of subconfigurations corresponding to CSI report #1. Compared to the previous embodiment in which the first numerical value is used to indicate the maximum number of subconfigurations that can be configured for a single channel state information report, this embodiment is more conducive to ensuring the correlation between the calculated priority parameter and the channel state information.

[0224] In some embodiments, the first information further includes at least one of the following:

[0225] The second value is used to indicate the maximum number of serving cells that can be configured;

[0226] A third value is used to indicate the maximum number of channel state information reports that can be configured;

[0227] a fourth value, used to indicate type information of the first channel state information report configuration;

[0228] A fifth value is used to indicate whether the first channel state information report is configured with layer 1 reference signal received power;

[0229] a sixth value, used to indicate an index of a serving cell;

[0230] The seventh value is used to indicate the index of the first channel state information report.

[0231] In some embodiments, determining a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the subconfiguration according to the index of the subconfiguration of the first channel state information report and the first information includes:

[0232] The priority parameter is determined according to the following formula: Pri iCSI (y,k,c,s,b)=2·N cells ·M s y+N cells ·M s k+M s c+M b s+b;

[0233] Among them, M b is the first value, N cells is the second value, M s is the third value, y is the fourth value, k is the fifth value, c is the sixth value, s is the seventh value, b is the index of the sub-configuration, and the priority parameter is negatively correlated with the priority.

[0234] In some embodiments, the priority parameter Pri can be calculated based on the above formula for the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to each channel state information report. iCSI (y,k,c,s,b), since the priority parameter is negatively correlated with the priority, the calculated Pri iCSI The smaller the (y, k, c, s, b) value, the higher the priority of the channel state information corresponding to index b. When the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report exceeds the terminal processing capability, the terminal may preferentially ignore the channel state information with relatively lower priority in the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report.

[0235] It should be noted that, in addition to calculating the priority parameter according to the above formula, the embodiment of the present disclosure can also calculate the priority parameter by other calculation formulas. For example, in some embodiments, in the above formula, M b It can be multiplied by s alone or by other values. For example, the priority parameter can be calculated based on the following formula: iCSI (y,k,c,s,b)=M b ·(2·N cells ·M s y+N cells ·M s k+M s c+s)+b;

[0236] Of course, Pri iCSI The calculation method of (y,k,c,s,b) is not limited to the above two formulas. You can set Pri as needed. iCSI The calculation method of (y,k,c,s,b), such as M b It is not necessary to multiply any of the second to seventh values, but to calculate the parameters in the form of addition, or, for example, M b Only the second to seventh numerical values ​​may be multiplied by one or more numerical values, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0237] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method. Figure 4 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The information processing method illustrated in this embodiment can be executed by an access network device.

[0238] As shown in FIG4 , the information processing method may include the following steps:

[0239] In step S401, a first channel state information report is determined from at least one channel state information report according to the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0240] In step S402, first channel state information is determined from the channel state information corresponding to at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state information report according to the capability of the terminal to process the channel state information;

[0241] In step S403, ignoring the first channel state information may also be described as the terminal not updating the first channel state information.

[0242] In some embodiments, the terminal may indicate (for example, to the network device, or the terminal may determine itself) the number N of CSIs that can be processed simultaneously in a component carrier (CC). CPU , for example, can be indicated by the parameter simultaneousCSI-ReportsPerCC. It can also indicate the number of simultaneously processed CSIs supported in all component carriers N CPU , for example, it can be indicated by the parameter simultaneousCSI-ReportsAllCC.

[0243] If the terminal supports processing N CPU CSI, it can be considered that there are N CPU CSI processing units are used to process CSI reports. For example, a CSI processing unit can be referred to as a CPU.

[0244] In some embodiments, the terminal's ability to process channel state information may be determined based on the above-mentioned content indicated by the terminal. When the channel state information report includes multiple sub-configurations, the number of CPUs occupied by the channel state information report is equal to the sum of the number of CPUs occupied by the CSI corresponding to the multiple sub-configurations.

[0245] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a first channel state information report may be determined in at least one channel state information report based on the terminal's ability to process CSI. For example, the first channel state information report may be referred to as a critical channel state information report.

[0246] That is, it can include the following two situations:

[0247] Case 1: The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes less than the index of the first channel state information report, but cannot support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes less than or equal to the index of the first channel state information report.

[0248] Case 2: The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports whose priority is greater than the priority of the first channel state information report, but cannot support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports whose priority is greater than or equal to the index of the first channel state information report.

[0249] Taking case 1 as an example, when the first channel state information report is set with at least one sub-configuration, the terminal's ability to process channel state information can be determined, supporting the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes smaller than the index of the first channel state information report, but does not support further simultaneous processing of the channel state information corresponding to all sub-configurations of the first channel state information report.

[0250] It can be seen from this that the processing of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration of the first channel state information report by the terminal will result in exceeding the terminal's ability to process the channel state information. Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first channel state information report can be determined in at least one channel state information report according to the terminal's ability to process CSI, and then, according to the terminal's ability to process channel state information, the first channel state information that needs to be ignored (that is, the terminal does not process it, or is described as the terminal not updating it) can be determined in the channel state information corresponding to at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state information report. This first channel state information can then be ignored to ensure that when the terminal processes the channel state information simultaneously, the ability to process the channel state information of the terminal will not be exceeded, which is conducive to the smooth operation of the terminal processing the channel state information at the same time.

[0251] In some embodiments, the index of the first channel state report is a first report index;

[0252] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal for processing channel state information occupied by the channel state reports with indexes smaller than the first report index in the at least one channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal for processing channel state information;

[0253] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by the channel state reports with indexes less than or equal to the first report index in the at least one channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information.

[0254] This embodiment can correspond to the above-mentioned situation 1. The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes smaller than the index of the first channel state information report. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0255] For example, there are five CSI reports, namely CSI report #1 with index 1, CSI report #2 with index 2, CSI report #3 with index 3, CSI report #4 with index 4, and CSI report #5 with index 5. For example, the first report index is 4, which means that the terminal's channel state information processing capability supports the terminal to process CSI report #1, CSI report #2, and CSI report #3 simultaneously. However, if the terminal processes CSI report #1, CSI report #2, CSI report #3, and CSI report #4 simultaneously, the terminal's channel state information processing capability will be exceeded.

[0256] The terminal may ignore (drop) the channel state report with an index greater than the first report index in at least one channel state report. For example, among the five CSI reports mentioned above, the terminal may ignore CSI report #5.

[0257] For example, the channel state information report with index M in the at least one channel state information report is the first channel state information report, where M is the maximum value that satisfies the following formula:

[0258] in, Indicates the number of channel state information processing unit CPUs occupied by the channel state information report with index n, N CPU It represents the number of CPUs that can execute processing operations simultaneously, and L represents the number of occupied CPUs.

[0259] In some embodiments, the priority of the first channel state report is a first reporting priority;

[0260] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal for processing channel state information occupied by the channel state reports having a priority greater than the first report priority in the at least one channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal for processing channel state information;

[0261] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by the channel state reports with a priority greater than or equal to the first report priority in the at least one channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information.

[0262] This embodiment corresponds to the above-mentioned situation 2. The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with an index greater than the first channel state information report from the lower level. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0263] For example, consider five CSI reports: CSI report #1 with index 1, CSI report #2 with index 2, CSI report #3 with index 3, CSI report #4 with index 4, and CSI report #5 with index 5. Their priorities, from high to low, are CSI report #2, CSI report #5, CSI report #4, CSI report #3, and CSI report #1. For example, the first report priority is 4, indicating the terminal's channel state information processing capability. This supports the terminal's simultaneous processing of CSI report #2, CSI report #5, and CSI report #4. However, if the terminal processes CSI report #2, CSI report #5, CSI report #4, and CSI report #3 simultaneously, the terminal's channel state information processing capability is exceeded.

[0264] The terminal may ignore (drop) at least one CSI report with a priority lower than the first report index. For example, among the five CSI reports above, the terminal may ignore CSI report #1.

[0265] In some embodiments, the index of the first channel state report is a first report index, and the index of the first subconfiguration is a first configuration index;

[0266] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report having an index smaller than the first report index in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration having an index smaller than the first configuration index in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0267] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report with an index smaller than the first report index in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration with an index smaller than or equal to the first configuration index in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0268] The channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with an index greater than or equal to the first configuration index in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report is the first channel state information.

[0269] In this embodiment, based on the above situation 1, the terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes less than the first report index, and channel state information corresponding to sub-configurations with indexes less than the first configuration index in the sub-configuration of the first channel state information report. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0270] For example, there are 5 CSI reports, namely CSI report#1 with index 1, CSI report#2 with index 2, CSI report#3 with index 3, CSI report#4 with index 4, and CSI report#5 with index 5. Among them, CSI report#4 contains 4 sub-configurations, sub-configuration#1 with index 1, sub-configuration#2 with index 2, sub-configuration#3 with index 3, and sub-configuration#4 with index 4.

[0271] For example, if the first report index is 4 and the first configuration index is 3, the terminal's channel state information processing capability supports simultaneous processing of CSI report #1, CSI report #2, CSI report #3, and sub-configuration #1 and sub-configuration #2 in CSI report #4. However, if the terminal further needs to simultaneously process sub-configuration #3, the terminal's channel state information processing capability will be exceeded.

[0272] Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with an index greater than or equal to the first configuration index in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report can be determined as the first channel state information. For example, in the above example, if the first configuration index is 3, then sub-configuration#3 and sub-configuration#4 can be determined as the first channel state information, and then the terminal can ignore the channel state information corresponding to sub-configuration#3 and sub-configuration#4 in CSI report#4 on the basis of ignoring CSI report#5. Accordingly, it can be ensured that when the terminal processes the channel state information simultaneously, the terminal's ability to process the channel state information will not be exceeded, which is conducive to the smooth operation of the terminal processing the channel state information at the same time.

[0273] For example, the first channel state information is the channel state information with an index greater than or equal to M' in the at least one channel state information; wherein M' is the maximum value that satisfies the following formula:

[0274] in, Indicates the number of channel state information processing unit CPUs occupied by the channel state information report with index n, N CPU Indicates the number of CPUs that can execute processing operations simultaneously, L indicates the number of occupied CPUs, is the number of CPUs occupied by the sub-configuration with index i, and M is the number of CPUs that satisfy The maximum value of .

[0275] In some embodiments, the index of the first channel state report is a first reporting priority and the index of the first subconfiguration is a first configuration priority;

[0276] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report having a priority greater than the first report priority in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration having a priority greater than the first configuration priority in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0277] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report having a priority greater than the first report priority in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration having a priority greater than or equal to the first configuration priority in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0278] The channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration that is greater than, less than, or equal to the first configuration index in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report is the first channel state information.

[0279] In this embodiment, based on the above-mentioned situation 2, the terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with a priority greater than the first report index, and the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with a priority greater than the first configuration index in the sub-configuration of the first channel state information report. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0280] For example, there are 5 CSI reports, namely CSI report #1 with index 1, CSI report #2 with index 2, CSI report #3 with index 3, CSI report #4 with index 4, and CSI report #5 with index 5. The priorities from high to low are CSI report #2, CSI report #5, CSI report #4, CSI report #3, and CSI report #1.

[0281] Among them, CSI report#4 contains 4 sub-configurations, sub-configuration#1 with index 1, sub-configuration#2 with index 2, sub-configuration#3 with index 3, and sub-configuration#4 with index 4. The priority from high to low is sub-configuration#1, sub-configuration#4, sub-configuration#2, and sub-configuration#3.

[0282] For example, if the first report priority is 4 and the first configuration priority is 3, the terminal's channel state information processing capability supports simultaneous processing of CSI report #2, CSI report #5, and CSI report #4, as well as sub-configuration #1 and sub-configuration #4 in CSI report #3. However, if the terminal further needs to simultaneously process sub-configuration #2, the terminal's channel state information processing capability will be exceeded.

[0283] Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with a priority less than or equal to the first configuration priority in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report can be determined as the first channel state information. For example, in the above example, if the first configuration priority is 3, then sub-configuration #2 and sub-configuration #3 can be determined as the first channel state information, and then the terminal can ignore the channel state information corresponding to sub-configuration #2 and sub-configuration #3 in CSI report #3 on the basis of ignoring CSI report #1. Accordingly, it can be ensured that when the terminal processes the channel state information simultaneously, it will not exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information, which is conducive to the smooth operation of the terminal processing the channel state information at the same time.

[0284] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method. Figure 5 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The information processing method illustrated in this embodiment can be executed by a network device.

[0285] As shown in FIG5 , the information processing method may include the following steps:

[0286] In step S501, a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the subconfiguration is determined according to an index of the subconfiguration corresponding to the first channel state information report and first information;

[0287] In step S502, a manner in which the terminal sends the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration to the network device is determined according to the priority parameter.

[0288] In some embodiments, the first information may include information used in a traditional ignore mechanism to determine a CSI report priority parameter. This disclosure will not describe this in detail, and reference may be made to subsequent embodiments for details.

[0289] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining a priority parameter for channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration corresponding to a first channel state information report, the network device may consider the subconfiguration index. The determined priority parameter is then correlated with the subconfiguration index. Furthermore, based on the priority parameter, a manner in which the terminal transmits the channel state information corresponding to the subconfiguration to the network device may be determined, thus taking the subconfiguration into account.

[0290] In some embodiments, the terminal sends the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration to the network device in at least one of the following ways:

[0291] The relationship between the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration sent by the terminal to the network device and the reporting resources;

[0292] When the channel state information exceeds the terminal's processing capability, the terminal reports or ignores the channel state information corresponding to which sub-configurations.

[0293] Based on this, on the one hand, this embodiment can refine the granularity of ignoring to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, rather than the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration, so that when the terminal executes the ignoring mechanism, it will not ignore the channel state information corresponding to the channel state information report configuration as a whole because the priority parameter of the channel state information report is relatively low, thereby causing the problem of ignoring the channel state information corresponding to multiple sub-configurations. Based on this, the network device can determine which sub-configurations correspond to the channel state information to be reported or ignored on the terminal. On the other hand, this embodiment determines the priority parameter based on the index of the sub-configuration related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, which is conducive to ensuring that the priority parameter determined for the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration can relatively accurately characterize the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0294] In some embodiments, a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration is positively correlated with an index of the sub-configuration.

[0295] For example, the smaller the sub-configuration index, the smaller the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration; the larger the sub-configuration index, the larger the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0296] For example, the priority parameter may be negatively correlated with the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. For example, the smaller the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, the higher the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration; for example, the larger the priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration, the lower the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. Then, when the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report exceeds the terminal processing capacity, the channel state information with relatively low priority in the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report, that is, the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with relatively large index, may be preferentially ignored.

[0297] It should be noted that the relationship between the sub-configuration index and the priority parameter can be negatively correlated in addition to the positive correlation mentioned above, and the relationship between the priority parameter and the priority can be positively correlated in addition to the negative correlation mentioned above, which is determined based on a specific calculation formula.

[0298] The following embodiments are mainly exemplified in the case where the index of the sub-configuration is positively correlated with the priority parameter, and the priority parameter is negatively correlated with the priority.

[0299] In some embodiments, the first information includes a first value, and the first value is used to indicate the maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for the single channel state information report.

[0300] In addition to including information used to determine the CSI report priority parameter in the traditional ignore mechanism, the first information may also include a first value, which can be used to indicate the maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for a single channel state information report.

[0301] Since the first value is used to indicate the maximum number of sub-configurations that can be configured for a single channel state information report, it is also related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. In the process of calculating the priority parameter, more parameters related to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration are introduced, which is conducive to the calculated priority parameter to more accurately ensure the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0302] In some embodiments, the maximum number is determined based on at least one of: signaling from a network device; a predefined rule; and capability information sent by the terminal to the network device.

[0303] In some embodiments, the first information includes a first numerical value, and the first numerical value is used to indicate the number of sub-configurations corresponding to the first channel state information report.

[0304] In addition to including information used to determine the CSI report priority parameter in the traditional ignore mechanism, the first information may also include a first numerical value, which can be used to indicate the number of sub-configurations corresponding to the first channel state information report.

[0305] Since the first numerical value is used to indicate the number of sub-configurations corresponding to the first channel state information report, it is also related to the granularity of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration. In the process of calculating the priority parameter, more parameters related to the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration are introduced, which is conducive to the calculated priority parameter to more accurately ensure the priority of the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration.

[0306] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first numerical value is used to indicate the number of subconfigurations corresponding to the first channel state information report. For example, the channel state information subconfiguration sub-configuration #1 corresponding to the priority parameter calculated by the first numerical value belongs to the subconfiguration corresponding to the first channel state information report CSI report #1, and the first numerical value indicates the number of subconfigurations corresponding to CSI report #1. Compared to the previous embodiment in which the first numerical value is used to indicate the maximum number of subconfigurations that can be configured for a single channel state information report, this embodiment is more conducive to ensuring the correlation between the calculated priority parameter and the channel state information.

[0307] In some embodiments, the first information further includes at least one of the following:

[0308] The second value is used to indicate the maximum number of serving cells that can be configured;

[0309] A third value is used to indicate the maximum number of channel state information reports that can be configured;

[0310] a fourth value, used to indicate type information of the first channel state information report configuration;

[0311] A fifth value is used to indicate whether the first channel state information report is configured with layer 1 reference signal received power;

[0312] a sixth value, used to indicate an index of a serving cell;

[0313] The seventh value is used to indicate the index of the first channel state information report.

[0314] In some embodiments, determining a priority parameter of the channel state information corresponding to the subconfiguration according to the index of the subconfiguration of the first channel state information report and the first information includes:

[0315] The priority parameter is determined according to the following formula: Pri iCSI (y,k,c,s,b)=2·N cells ·M s y+N cells ·M s k+M s c+M b s+b;

[0316] Among them, M b is the first value, N cells is the second value, M s is the third value, y is the fourth value, k is the fifth value, c is the sixth value, s is the seventh value, b is the index of the sub-configuration, and the priority parameter is negatively correlated with the priority.

[0317] In some embodiments, the priority parameter Pri can be calculated based on the above formula for the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to each channel state information report. iCSI (y,k,c,s,b), since the priority parameter is negatively correlated with the priority, the calculated Pri iCSI The smaller the (y, k, c, s, b) value, the higher the priority of the channel state information corresponding to index b. When the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report exceeds the terminal processing capability, the network device can determine that the terminal preferentially ignores the channel state information with relatively low priority in the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration corresponding to the first channel state information report.

[0318] It should be noted that, in addition to calculating the priority parameter according to the above formula, the embodiment of the present disclosure can also calculate the priority parameter by other calculation formulas. For example, in some embodiments, in the above formula, M b It can be multiplied by s alone or by other values. For example, the priority parameter can be calculated based on the following formula: iCSI (y,k,c,s,b)=M b ·(2·N cells ·M s y+N cells ·M s k+M s c+s)+b;

[0319] Of course, Pri iCSI The calculation method of (y,k,c,s,b) is not limited to the above two formulas. You can set Pri as needed. iCSI The calculation method of (y,k,c,s,b), such as M b It is not necessary to multiply any of the second to seventh values, but to calculate the parameters in the form of addition, or, for example, M b Only the second to seventh numerical values ​​may be multiplied by one or more numerical values, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0320] Fourthly, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an information processing method. Figure 6 is a schematic flow chart illustrating an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The information processing method illustrated in this embodiment can be executed by a network device.

[0321] As shown in FIG6 , the information processing method may include the following steps:

[0322] In step S601, a first channel state information report is determined from at least one channel state information report according to the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0323] In step S602, first channel state information is determined from the channel state information corresponding to at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state information report according to the capability of the terminal to process the channel state information;

[0324] In step S603, it is determined that the terminal ignores the first channel state information.

[0325] In some embodiments, the terminal may indicate (for example, to the network device, or the terminal may determine itself) the number N of CSIs that can be processed simultaneously in a component carrier (CC). CPU, for example, can be indicated by the parameter simultaneousCSI-ReportsPerCC. It can also indicate the number N of CSIs supported for simultaneous processing in all component carriers. CPU , for example, it can be indicated by the parameter simultaneousCSI-ReportsAllCC.

[0326] If the terminal supports processing N CPU CSI, it can be considered that there are N CPU A CSI processing unit is used to process the CSI report. For example, the CSI processing unit can be referred to as a CPU.

[0327] In some embodiments, the terminal's ability to process channel state information may be determined based on the above-mentioned content indicated by the terminal. When the channel state information report includes multiple sub-configurations, the number of CPUs occupied by the channel state information report is equal to the sum of the number of CPUs occupied by the CSI corresponding to the multiple sub-configurations.

[0328] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a first channel state information report may be determined in at least one channel state information report based on the terminal's ability to process CSI. For example, the first channel state information report may be referred to as a critical channel state information report.

[0329] That is, it can include the following two situations:

[0330] Case 1: The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes less than the index of the first channel state information report, but cannot support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes less than or equal to the index of the first channel state information report.

[0331] Case 2: The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports whose priority is greater than the priority of the first channel state information report, but cannot support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports whose priority is greater than or equal to the index of the first channel state information report.

[0332] Taking case 1 as an example, when the first channel state information report is set with at least one sub-configuration, the network device can determine the terminal's ability to process channel state information, and support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes smaller than the index of the first channel state information report, but does not support further simultaneous processing of the channel state information corresponding to all sub-configurations of the first channel state information report.

[0333] It can be seen from this that the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration of the terminal processing the first channel state information report will result in exceeding the terminal's ability to process the channel state information. Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first channel state information report can be determined in at least one channel state information report according to the terminal's ability to process CSI, and then according to the terminal's ability to process channel state information, the first channel state information that the terminal needs to ignore (that is, the terminal does not process, or is described as the terminal not updating) is determined in the channel state information corresponding to at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state information report. The terminal can ignore this first channel state information to ensure that when the terminal processes the channel state information at the same time, it does not exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information, which is conducive to the smooth operation of the terminal processing the channel state information at the same time. Based on this, the network device can accurately determine that the terminal has ignored this first channel state information, which is conducive to avoiding errors when receiving channel state information.

[0334] In some embodiments, the index of the first channel state report is a first report index;

[0335] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal for processing channel state information occupied by the channel state reports with indexes smaller than the first report index in the at least one channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal for processing channel state information;

[0336] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by the channel state reports with indexes less than or equal to the first report index in the at least one channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information.

[0337] This embodiment can correspond to the above-mentioned situation 1. The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes smaller than the index of the first channel state information report. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0338] For example, there are five CSI reports, namely CSI report #1 with index 1, CSI report #2 with index 2, CSI report #3 with index 3, CSI report #4 with index 4, and CSI report #5 with index 5. For example, the first report index is 4, which means that the terminal's channel state information processing capability supports the terminal to process CSI report #1, CSI report #2, and CSI report #3 simultaneously. However, if the terminal processes CSI report #1, CSI report #2, CSI report #3, and CSI report #4 simultaneously, the terminal's channel state information processing capability will be exceeded.

[0339] The terminal may ignore (or drop) at least one CSI report with an index greater than the first CSI report index. For example, among the five CSI reports, the terminal may ignore CSI report #5. Based on this, the network device may determine that the terminal has ignored CSI report #5 among the five CSI reports.

[0340] For example, the channel state information report with index M in the at least one channel state information report is the first channel state information report, where M is the maximum value that satisfies the following formula:

[0341] in, Indicates the number of channel state information processing unit CPUs occupied by the channel state information report with index n, N CPU It represents the number of CPUs that can execute processing operations simultaneously, and L represents the number of occupied CPUs.

[0342] In some embodiments, the priority of the first channel state report is a first reporting priority;

[0343] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal for processing channel state information occupied by the channel state reports having a priority greater than the first report priority in the at least one channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal for processing channel state information;

[0344] The sum of the capabilities of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by the channel state reports with a priority greater than or equal to the first report priority in the at least one channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information.

[0345] This embodiment corresponds to the above-mentioned situation 2. The terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with an index greater than the first channel state information report from the lower level. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0346] For example, consider five CSI reports: CSI report #1 with index 1, CSI report #2 with index 2, CSI report #3 with index 3, CSI report #4 with index 4, and CSI report #5 with index 5. Their priorities, from high to low, are CSI report #2, CSI report #5, CSI report #4, CSI report #3, and CSI report #1. For example, the first report priority is 4, indicating the terminal's channel state information processing capability. This supports the terminal's simultaneous processing of CSI report #2, CSI report #5, and CSI report #4. However, if the terminal processes CSI report #2, CSI report #5, CSI report #4, and CSI report #3 simultaneously, the terminal's channel state information processing capability is exceeded.

[0347] The terminal may ignore (or drop) at least one CSI report with a priority lower than the first report index. For example, among the five CSI reports, the terminal may ignore CSI report #1. Based on this, the network device may determine that the terminal has ignored CSI report #1 among the five CSI reports.

[0348] In some embodiments, the index of the first channel state report is a first report index, and the index of the first subconfiguration is a first configuration index;

[0349] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report having an index smaller than the first report index in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration having an index smaller than the first configuration index in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0350] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report with an index smaller than the first report index in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration with an index smaller than or equal to the first configuration index in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0351] The channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with an index greater than or equal to the first configuration index in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report is the first channel state information.

[0352] In this embodiment, based on the above situation 1, the terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with indexes less than the first report index, and channel state information corresponding to sub-configurations with indexes less than the first configuration index in the sub-configuration of the first channel state information report. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0353] For example, take 5 CSI reports as an example, namely CSI report#1 with index 1, CSI report#2 with index 2, CSI report#3 with index 3, CSI report#4 with index 4, and CSI report#5 with index 5. Among them, CSI report#4 contains 4 sub-configurations, sub-configuration#1 with index 1, sub-configuration#2 with index 2, sub-configuration#3 with index 3, and sub-configuration#4 with index 4.

[0354] For example, if the first report index is 4 and the first configuration index is 3, the terminal's channel state information processing capability supports simultaneous processing of CSI report #1, CSI report #2, CSI report #3, and sub-configuration #1 and sub-configuration #2 in CSI report #4. However, if the terminal further needs to simultaneously process sub-configuration #3, the terminal's channel state information processing capability will be exceeded.

[0355] Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with an index greater than or equal to the first configuration index in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report can be determined as the first channel state information. For example, in the above example, if the first configuration index is 3, then sub-configuration#3 and sub-configuration#4 can be determined as the first channel state information, and then the terminal can ignore the channel state information corresponding to sub-configuration#3 and sub-configuration#4 in CSI report#4 on the basis of ignoring CSI report#5. Based on this, the network device can determine that the terminal has ignored the channel state information corresponding to sub-configuration#3 and sub-configuration#4 in CSI report#4 on the basis of ignoring CSI report#5. Accordingly, it is helpful to ensure that the network device accurately determines the CSI reported by the terminal.

[0356] For example, the first channel state information is the channel state information with an index greater than or equal to M' in the at least one channel state information; wherein M' is the maximum value that satisfies the following formula:

[0357] in, Indicates the number of channel state information processing unit CPUs occupied by the channel state information report with index n, N CPU Indicates the number of CPUs that can execute processing operations simultaneously, L indicates the number of occupied CPUs, is the number of CPUs occupied by the sub-configuration with index i, and M is the number of CPUs that satisfy The maximum value of .

[0358] In this embodiment, based on the above-mentioned situation 2, the terminal's ability to process channel state information can support the terminal to simultaneously process channel state information reports with a priority greater than the first report index, and the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration with a priority greater than the first configuration index in the sub-configuration of the first channel state information report. However, when more channel state information needs to be processed simultaneously, it will exceed the terminal's ability to process the channel state information.

[0359] For example, there are 5 CSI reports, namely CSI report #1 with index 1, CSI report #2 with index 2, CSI report #3 with index 3, CSI report #4 with index 4, and CSI report #5 with index 5. The priorities from high to low are CSI report #2, CSI report #5, CSI report #4, CSI report #3, and CSI report #1.

[0360] Among them, CSI report#4 contains 4 sub-configurations, sub-configuration#1 with index 1, sub-configuration#2 with index 2, sub-configuration#3 with index 3, and sub-configuration#4 with index 4. The priority from high to low is sub-configuration#1, sub-configuration#4, sub-configuration#2, and sub-configuration#3.

[0361] For example, if the first report priority is 4 and the first configuration priority is 3, the terminal's channel state information processing capability supports simultaneous processing of CSI report #2, CSI report #5, and CSI report #4, as well as sub-configuration #1 and sub-configuration #4 in CSI report #3. However, if the terminal further needs to simultaneously process sub-configuration #2, the terminal's channel state information processing capability will be exceeded.

[0362] Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the channel state information corresponding to the sub-configuration whose priority in at least one sub-configuration of the first channel state report is less than or equal to the priority of the first configuration can be determined as the first channel state information. For example, in the above example, if the first configuration priority is 3, then sub-configuration#2 and sub-configuration#3 can be determined as the first channel state information, and then the terminal can ignore the channel state information corresponding to sub-configuration#2 and sub-configuration#3 in CSI report#3 on the basis of ignoring CSI report#1. Based on this, the network device can determine that the terminal has ignored the channel state information corresponding to sub-configuration#2 and sub-configuration#3 in CSI report#3 on the basis of ignoring CSI report#1. Accordingly, it is helpful to ensure that the network device accurately determines the CSI reported by the terminal.

[0363] In some embodiments, the index of the first channel state report is a first reporting priority and the index of the first subconfiguration is a first configuration priority;

[0364] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report having a priority greater than the first report priority in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration having a priority greater than the first configuration priority in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is less than or equal to the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;

[0365] The sum of the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by a channel state report having a priority greater than the first report priority in the at least one channel state report and the capability of the terminal to process channel state information occupied by channel state information corresponding to a subconfiguration having a priority greater than or equal to the first configuration priority in at least one subconfiguration of the first channel state report is greater than the capability of the terminal to process channel state information;
