[0058] Before introducing the technical solution of this application, some background technical knowledge involved in this application is first introduced and explained. The following related technologies can be combined with the technical solution of the embodiment of this application as optional solutions, and they all fall within the scope of protection of the embodiment of this application. The embodiment of this application includes at least part of the following contents:

[0059] 1) Terminal energy saving based on wake-up receiver

[0060] In order to further save power in the terminal equipment (User Equipment, UE), the 3GPP R18 standard considers introducing a wake-up receiver (WUR) to receive a low-power wake-up signal (LP-WUS). The wake-up receiver has the characteristics of extremely low cost, extremely low complexity and extremely low power consumption. It mainly receives the wake-up signal through an envelope detection-based method. Therefore, the LP-WUS received by the wake-up receiver is different from the modulation method and waveform of the signal carried by the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) defined in the existing 3GPP R16 and R17 standards. The wake-up signal is mainly an envelope signal modulated by amplitude shift keying (ASK) of the carrier signal. The demodulation of the envelope signal is also mainly based on the energy provided by the wireless radio frequency signal to drive the low-power circuit, so it can be passive. The wake-up receiver can also be powered by the terminal. Regardless of the power supply method, the receiver greatly reduces power consumption compared to the traditional receiver of the UE. The wake-up receiver can be combined with the UE as an additional module of the UE receiver, or it can be used alone as a wake-up function module of the UE.

[0061] FIG2 shows a block diagram of a receiver system involved in this application. As shown in FIG2 , the wake-up receiver receives a wake-up signal and can instruct the UE to turn on the main receiver if the UE needs to turn on the receiver. Otherwise, the UE's main receiver can be in a turned-off state.

[0062] 2) Wake-up signal generation method based on wake-up receiver

[0063] In order to save power when waking up the receiver, the wake-up receiver needs to have a lower complexity, so the waveform of the wake-up signal adopts a waveform such as ASK and frequency shift keying (FSK) that can be detected by a receiver with low complexity. Among them, the ASK waveform usually uses an on-off keying (OOK) signal. At the same time, in the existing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, in order to utilize the existing OFDM transmitter to generate the wake-up signal and reduce additional hardware overhead, the OOK signal is generated through multi-carrier (MC), so it is called MC-OOK signal. The generation of MC-OOK signal can use the existing multi-carrier modulation (such as OFDM modulation) to generate OOK signal, which can maintain good compatibility with the existing OFDM system and reduce the transmitter complexity introduced to implement WUR signal.

[0064] The following are the main methods for generating WUS signals discussed in the 3GPP R18 standard:

[0065] The MC-ASK waveform is generated in the following ways, where K is the number of points in the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) and N is the number of subcarriers used to transmit the WUS signal:

[0066] ①OOK-1: Each OFDM symbol carries 1 bit. The subcarrier carrying the LP-WUS is modulated and IDFT-transformed, resulting in an output signal of OOK = 1. The subcarrier carrying the LP-WUS is zero-power, resulting in an output signal of OOK = 0. Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of the LP-WUS generation process involved in this application.

[0067] ②OOK-2: Each OFDM symbol carries M bits in the frequency domain. The N subcarriers carrying the LP-WUS are divided into M segments, each of which carries 1 bit of information. In each segment, the output signal corresponding to all subcarriers being modulated is OOK = 1, and the output signal corresponding to all subcarriers being zero power is OOK = 0. Taking M = 2 as an example, Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of another LP-WUS generation process involved in this application.

[0068] ③OOK-3: Each OFDM symbol carries 1 bit, and the N subcarriers carrying the LP-WUS are divided into M segments. In the M segments, when one subcarrier in each segment is modulated and the other subcarriers are at zero power, the corresponding output signal is OOK = 1. When all subcarriers in all segments are at zero power, the corresponding output signal is OOK = 0. Figure 5 shows another schematic diagram of the LP-WUS generation process involved in this application.

[0069] ④OOK-4: Each OFDM symbol carries M bits in the time domain. The N subcarriers carrying the LP-WUS are generated through the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). S sampling points represent the M bits. The S sampling points are transformed by the DFT to form S subcarriers. The S subcarriers are truncated and other processes are performed to form N subcarriers, which are then transformed by the IDFT to generate the OOK signal. Taking M=4 as an example, Figure 6 shows a schematic diagram of another LP-WUS generation process involved in this application.

[0070] In addition to the MC-ASK waveform, LP-WUS can also use the MC-FSK waveform, which mainly includes the following methods:

[0071] ①FSK-1: The N subcarriers carrying LP-WUS are divided into M pairs of segments. In each OFDM symbol, one segment in each pair is modulated and the other segment is zero power.

[0072] ②FSK-2: The N subcarriers carrying LP-WUS are divided into 2 M segments, in each OFDM symbol, 2 M One of the segments is modulated and the other segments are at zero power.

[0073] 3) Public PUCCH resources

[0074] During the initial access phase of the UE, such as during the random access process, it is necessary to send Hybrid Automatic Repeat request (HARQ) feedback information for Msg4 or MsgB through the common Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH). Since there is no UE-specific PUCCH resource set configuration at this time, a predefined method is adopted. The predefined PUCCH resource set is only used for HARQ feedback information, so the PUCCH resources in the predefined PUCCH resource set only need to carry 1 to 2 bits of HARQ feedback information, that is, it only consists of PUCCH format 0 and PUCCH format 1. The base station configures a common PUCCH resource set for all UEs before radio resource control (RRC) is established through the system information block (SIB) 1. The frequency domain position of the PUCCH resource is located at both ends of the bandwidth of the initial uplink bandwidth part (Bandwidth Part, BWP). The frequency domain position of the PUCCH is determined by a frequency domain offset from the bandwidth edge. This can prevent the PUCCH from occupying the middle position of the bandwidth, causing fragmentation of the frequency domain resources. The network cannot schedule the transmission of the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) on the continuous frequency domain resources within the initial uplink BWP, making it impossible for the PUSCH to obtain large scheduling resources. Figure 7 shows a schematic diagram of the frequency domain resource position of the PUCCH involved in this application. As shown in Figure 7, the frequency domain position of the PUCCH is determined by subtracting a frequency domain offset from the high frequency edge of the bandwidth of the initial uplink BWP, or adding a frequency domain offset to the low frequency edge, thereby ensuring the largest possible continuous bandwidth in the middle of the initial uplink BWP.

[0075] LP-WUS is introduced in the 3GPP R18 standard. In order to be compatible with existing systems and make full use of resources, when the terminal device uses WUR to receive WUS, the WUS signal sent by the network device should preferably be compatible with the existing OFDM transmitter and be able to be multiplexed with the existing NR signal within the frequency band, rather than using a separate frequency band resource for the transmission of the WUS signal.

[0076] The main application scenario introduced by LP-WUS is to indicate whether a UE in the RRC idle / inactive state needs to turn on the main receiver to receive paging messages. Since UEs in the RRC idle / inactive state usually operate in the initial BWP, its initial downlink BWP is mainly used to carry system messages, paging messages, and random access downlink messages (Messages, Msgs), and the initial uplink BWP is mainly used to send uplink Msgs for initial access. As a downlink signal, how LP-WUS can coexist with other signals in the initial downlink BWP is an issue that needs to be addressed.

[0077] In the prior art, during the cell search phase, the initial downlink BWP is determined by the bandwidth of the control resource set (CORESET) #0 carried by the physical broadcast channel (PBCH). After obtaining the system message, the initial downlink BWP can be indicated by the system message. The initial downlink BWP can carry the PDCCH, the physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), the synchronization signal block (SSB), etc. The bandwidth of the PDCCH is determined by the CORESET, and the PDCCH can schedule the frequency domain resources of the PDSCH for carrying system messages, paging messages, etc. System messages and paging messages are public messages, and scheduling as large a frequency domain resource as possible is beneficial to the payload and coverage carried by the PDSCH. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid the fragmentation of frequency domain resources.

[0078] Please refer to FIG8 , which shows a flowchart of a resource determination method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be interactively executed by a terminal device and a network device, wherein the terminal device can be the terminal device 120 or the terminal device 130 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 , and the network device can be the network device 110 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 . The method can include the following steps:

[0079] In step 801, the network device determines a wake-up frequency domain resource according to a frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is an offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and a frequency domain bandwidth edge of a downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0080] That is, the network device may determine the wake-up frequency domain resource according to the frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0081] Specifically, the frequency domain offset can be the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge on either side of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, or the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edges on both sides of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0082] For example, the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resource can be a frequency domain resource corresponding to a continuous frequency domain resource interval. At this time, the above-mentioned frequency domain offset can be an interval endpoint of the frequency domain resource interval and the offset between the frequency domain bandwidth edge on either side of the downlink BWP.

[0083] For another example, the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resources may include frequency domain resources corresponding to two or more consecutive frequency domain resource intervals. At this time, the above-mentioned frequency domain offset may include an interval endpoint of each frequency domain resource interval and the offset between the frequency domain bandwidth edge on either side of the downlink BWP.

[0084] For example, the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resources may include frequency domain resources corresponding to two consecutive frequency domain resource intervals, wherein frequency domain resource interval 1 is close to the low frequency point side of the downlink BWP, and frequency domain resource interval 1 is closer to the high frequency point side of the downlink BWP. The above-mentioned frequency domain offset may include the offset between an interval endpoint of the frequency domain resource interval 1 (such as the interval endpoint with a high frequency point) and the frequency domain bandwidth edge on the low frequency point side of the downlink BWP, and the offset between an interval endpoint of the frequency domain resource interval 2 (such as the interval endpoint with a high frequency point) and the frequency domain bandwidth edge on the high frequency point side of the downlink BWP.

[0085] In step 802, the terminal device determines a wake-up frequency domain resource according to a frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is an offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and a frequency domain bandwidth edge of a downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0086] That is, the terminal device may determine the wake-up frequency domain resource according to the frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0087] In step 803 , the network device sends a wake-up signal according to the wake-up frequency domain resource; accordingly, the terminal device may receive the wake-up signal through the first receiver, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second receiver of the terminal device.

[0088] That is to say, the network device sends a wake-up signal according to the wake-up frequency domain resource, and the terminal device chooses whether to receive the wake-up signal. If received, the wake-up signal is received by the first receiver according to the wake-up frequency domain resource, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second receiver of the terminal device.

[0089] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned wake-up signal may be LP-WUS, and the above-mentioned downlink bandwidth part BWP may be an initial downlink BWP.

[0090] In the above scheme, the network device can determine to carry LP-WUS on the frequency domain resources on one side or both sides of the downlink BWP. Accordingly, the terminal device can receive LP-WUS on the frequency domain resources on one side or both sides of the downlink BWP. This method can avoid the fragmentation of frequency domain resources within the initial downlink BWP and reduce the impact on the resource utilization of the existing NR signal within the initial downlink BWP.

[0091] In addition to the initial downlink BWP, if the LP-WUS signal is transmitted within a non-initial downlink BWP, the method of the embodiment of the present application can also be used. For example, when the UE is in the RRC-connected state, in the downlink BWP configured by the network device through RRC signaling, the terminal device and the network device can also determine the frequency domain location of the wake-up frequency domain resource of the LP-WUS signal according to the above method.

[0092] To sum up, the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application can determine the wake-up frequency domain resources for the network device to send the wake-up signal and the terminal device to receive the wake-up signal based on the frequency domain offset. The frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, thereby enabling the accurate transmission and reception of the wake-up signal between the network device and the terminal device, improving the efficiency of the transmission and reception of the wake-up signal, and further improving the energy-saving effect of the system.

[0093] In addition, LP-WUS can be carried on the frequency domain resources on one side or both sides of the downlink BWP. When the wake-up signal is multiplexed with the existing NR signal, it can avoid the fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, and ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, without affecting the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing downlink signal, thereby ensuring the transmission performance of the existing downlink signal.

[0094] Based on the solution shown in FIG8 , please refer to FIG9 , which shows a flowchart of a resource determination method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be interactively executed by a terminal device and a network device, wherein the terminal device can be the terminal device 120 or the terminal device 130 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 , and the network device can be the network device 110 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 . The method can include the following steps:

[0095] Step 901: The network device sends resource indication information to the terminal device. Correspondingly, the terminal receives the resource indication information, where the resource indication information is used to indicate a frequency domain offset.

[0096] That is to say, the above-mentioned frequency domain offset can be indicated by resource indication information, and the resource indication information is sent by the network device.

[0097] That is, the resource indication information sent by the network device may be used to indicate the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0098] For example, the network device can indicate the frequency domain offset of the LP-WUS wake-up frequency domain resource from the high frequency edge or the frequency domain offset from the low frequency edge through signaling such as system messages, RRC messages, or Medium Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE).

[0099] The system message may indicate the frequency domain offset of the start point or end point of the wake-up frequency domain resource of the LP-WUS from the high / low frequency edge.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present application, the wake-up frequency domain resource of the wake-up signal can be determined based on the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource indicated by the resource indication information and the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, thereby enabling accurate transmission and reception of the wake-up signal between the network device and the terminal device, improving the efficiency of transmission and reception of the wake-up signal, and further improving the energy-saving effect of the system.

[0101] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned wake-up signal may be LP-WUS, and the above-mentioned downlink bandwidth part BWP may be an initial downlink BWP.

[0102] It should be noted that for the downlink BWP (such as the initial downlink BWP), in order to avoid fragmentation of frequency domain resources, the wake-up frequency domain resources of the LP-WUS can be set at one or both ends of the downlink BWP, or at a frequency domain position close to one or both ends of the downlink BWP.

[0103] That is to say, the resource indication information sent by the network device can be used to determine the frequency domain resource application bearing LP-WUS on one side or both sides of the downlink BWP. This method can avoid the fragmentation of frequency domain resources within the initial downlink BWP and reduce the impact on the resource usage of the existing NR signal within the initial downlink BWP.

[0104] In addition to the initial downlink BWP, if the LP-WUS signal is transmitted within a non-initial downlink BWP, the method of the embodiment of the present application can also be used. For example, when the UE is in the RRC-connected state, in the downlink BWP configured by the network device through RRC signaling, the wake-up frequency domain resource location of the LP-WUS signal can also be determined according to the above method.

[0105] The solution shown in the embodiment of the present application can indicate the frequency domain offset through the resource indication information sent by the network device to determine the wake-up frequency domain resources of the wake-up signal, avoid the fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, and ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, without affecting the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing downlink signal, thereby ensuring the transmission performance of the existing downlink signal.

[0106] In step 902, the network device determines a wake-up frequency domain resource according to a frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is an offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and a frequency domain bandwidth edge of a downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0107] That is, the network device may determine the wake-up frequency domain resource according to the frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0108] Specifically, the frequency domain offset can be the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge on either side of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, or the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edges on both sides of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0109] Step 903: The terminal device determines a wake-up frequency domain resource according to a frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is an offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and a frequency domain bandwidth edge of a downlink bandwidth portion BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0110] That is, the terminal device may also determine the wake-up frequency domain resource according to the frequency domain offset, where the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0111] Step 904: The network device sends a wake-up signal according to the wake-up frequency domain resource; accordingly, the terminal device may receive the wake-up signal through the first receiver, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second receiver of the terminal device.

[0112] The terminal device may receive a wake-up signal on a wake-up frequency domain resource through a first receiver.

[0113] That is to say, the network device sends a wake-up signal based on the wake-up frequency domain resource, and the terminal device can choose whether to receive the wake-up signal. If received, the wake-up signal is received by the first receiver based on the wake-up frequency domain resource, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second receiver of the terminal device.

[0114] In some embodiments, the resource indication information is further used to indicate the bandwidth of the wake-up frequency domain resource.

[0115] That is, the resource indication information sent by the network device can be used not only to indicate the frequency domain offset, but also to indicate the bandwidth of the wake-up frequency domain resource.

[0116] The embodiment of the present application further clarifies that the resource indication information sent by the network device can also be used to indicate the bandwidth of the wake-up frequency domain resources, which can improve the flexibility of indicating the wake-up frequency domain resources in the embodiment of the present application.

[0117] In other embodiments, the bandwidth of the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resources can be pre-defined by the protocol; or, the bandwidth of the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resources can also be configured by the network device through other signaling before the resource indication information. For example, the network device can configure the bandwidth of the wake-up frequency domain resources to the terminal device through a system message, and subsequently indicate the frequency domain offset of the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resources through an RRC message or MAC CE.

[0118] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is different in different time periods.

[0119] That is, the offset between the aforementioned wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located may be different in different time periods. The network device may instruct the terminal device to use different frequency domain offsets to determine the wake-up frequency domain resource in different time periods.

[0120] Since the signals sent by the initial downlink BWP at different times may be different, their bandwidths and frequency domain positions in the initial downlink BWP may also be different.

[0121] For example, in time period T a Send SSB signal in time period T b The bandwidth of the PDCCH signal, SSB signal and PDCCH signal, as well as the frequency domain position of the SSB signal and PDCCH signal in the initial downlink BWP are different. b In the time period T, the frequency domain offset needs to be determined based on the SSB signal; b The frequency domain offset needs to be determined based on the PDCCH signal. a and time period T b The frequency domain offset indicated by the network device through the resource indication information may be different.

[0122] The embodiment of the present application further clarifies the correlation between the above-mentioned offset and the time period, which can improve the accuracy and flexibility of indicating the wake-up frequency domain resources in the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application.

[0123] Based on the solution shown in FIG8 , please refer to FIG10 , which shows a flow chart of a resource determination method provided by one embodiment of the present application. The method can be interactively executed by a terminal device and a network device, wherein the terminal device can be the terminal device 120 or the terminal device 130 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 , and the network device can be the network device 110 in the network architecture shown in FIG1 . The method can include the following steps:

[0124] In step 1001, the network device determines a wake-up frequency domain resource according to a frequency domain offset. The frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and a frequency domain bandwidth edge of a downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located. The frequency domain offset is determined according to specified information.

[0125] That is to say, the network device can determine the wake-up frequency domain resource based on the frequency domain offset, which is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, wherein the frequency domain offset can be determined by the network device based on specified information.

[0126] Specifically, the frequency domain offset can be the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge on either side of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, or the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edges on both sides of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0127] In step 1002, the terminal device determines the wake-up frequency domain resource according to the frequency domain offset. The frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located. The frequency domain offset is determined according to specified information.

[0128] That is to say, the terminal device can determine the wake-up frequency domain resource based on the frequency domain offset, which is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, wherein the frequency domain offset can be determined by the terminal device based on specified information.

[0129] Specifically, the frequency domain offset can be the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge on either side of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, or the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edges on both sides of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0130] Step 1003: The network device sends a wake-up signal according to the wake-up frequency domain resource; accordingly, the terminal device can receive the wake-up signal through the first receiver, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second receiver of the terminal device.

[0131] That is to say, the network device sends a wake-up signal according to the wake-up frequency domain resource, and the terminal device can choose whether to receive the wake-up signal. If received, the wake-up signal is received by the first receiver according to the wake-up frequency domain resource, and the wake-up signal is used to wake up the second receiver of the terminal device.

[0132] In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned wake-up signal may be LP-WUS, and the above-mentioned downlink bandwidth part BWP may be an initial downlink BWP or a non-initial downlink BWP.

[0133] It should be noted that, for the initial downlink BWP, in order to avoid fragmentation of frequency domain resources, the wake-up frequency domain resources of the LP-WUS may be set at both ends of the initial downlink BWP.

[0134] That is to say, the terminal device can determine to carry LP-WUS on the frequency domain resources on one side or both sides of the initial downlink BWP based on the specified information. This method can avoid the fragmentation of frequency domain resources within the initial downlink BWP and reduce the impact on the resource usage of the existing NR signal within the initial downlink BWP.

[0135] In addition to the initial downlink BWP, if the LP-WUS signal is transmitted within a non-initial downlink BWP, the method of the embodiment of the present application can also be used. For example, when the UE is in the RRC-connected state, in the downlink BWP configured by the network device through RRC signaling, the wake-up frequency domain resource location of the LP-WUS signal can also be determined according to the above method.

[0136] Among them, the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application can determine the frequency domain offset according to the specified information, and determine the wake-up frequency domain resources of the wake-up signal according to the frequency domain offset. At the same time, the above-mentioned wake-up frequency domain resources can be located at / near one end or both ends of the downlink BWP, avoiding the fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensuring that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, without affecting the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing downlink signal, and ensuring the transmission performance of the existing downlink signal.

[0137] In some embodiments, the specified information includes one or more of the following information:

[0138] The bandwidth of the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located;

[0139] The position of the SSB in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located;

[0140] The position of the CORESET bandwidth in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resources are located;

[0141] Time domain pattern of SSB;

[0142] Time domain pattern of PDCCH;

[0143] Multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH.

[0144] In other words, the above specified information can be one or more of the following information:

[0145] ① Initial downlink BWP bandwidth

[0146] According to the size of the bandwidth, the terminal device and / or the network device may calculate the frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource according to a certain formula.

[0147] The terminal device and / or network device may preset or configure a bandwidth ratio, for example, within a range of 8%-12%. The frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource is the product of the bandwidth of the initial downlink BWP and the bandwidth ratio. For example, if the bandwidth of the initial downlink BWP is 20 MHz and the preset or configured bandwidth ratio is 10%, the frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource is 20 MHz * 10% = 2 MHz.

[0148] ②SSB position in the initial downlink BWP

[0149] In this embodiment, the frequency domain distance of the frequency domain position of the SSB from the edge can be determined based on the position of the SSB in the initial downlink BWP, and then the frequency domain offset can be determined based on the frequency domain distance. In this process, the frequency domain offset is controlled to ensure that the wake-up frequency domain resource does not overlap with the SSB in the frequency domain.

[0150] The SSB can be located in one of the preset synchronization grids, and the position of the SSB in the initial downlink BWP can be flexibly set. For example, the frequency domain bandwidth occupied by the SSB is 20 resource blocks centered on the synchronization grid. The position of the frequency domain bandwidth occupied by the SSB in the BWP determines the distance between the SSB and the edge of the BWP. Through this solution, the frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource can be limited to no greater than the frequency domain distance between the frequency domain bandwidth occupied by the SSB and the edge of the BWP.

[0151] Furthermore, a frequency domain offset may be determined based on the frequency domain distance to ensure that the wake-up frequency domain resource does not overlap with the SSB in the frequency domain.

[0152] ③The position of CORESET bandwidth in the initial downlink BWP

[0153] In this embodiment, the frequency domain distance between the frequency domain position of the CORESET and the edge can be determined according to the position of the CORESET in the initial downlink BWP, and the frequency domain offset can be determined according to the frequency domain distance to ensure that there is no frequency domain overlap with the CORESET.

[0154] The frequency domain resources contained in the CORESET are indicated by the SSB or configured by system messages. The frequency domain location of the CORESET in the initial downlink BWP is also relatively flexible. Through the above scheme, based on the determined location of the CORESET's bandwidth in the initial downlink BWP, the distance from the CORESET to the BWP edge can be determined, thereby limiting the frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resources to no greater than the frequency domain distance from the BWP edge to the frequency domain bandwidth occupied by the CORESET.

[0155] Furthermore, a frequency domain offset may be determined according to the frequency domain distance to ensure that the wake-up frequency domain resource does not overlap with the CORESET in the frequency domain.

[0156] ④Time domain pattern of SSB or PDCCH

[0157] The time domain resources for SSB transmission are indicated by system messages, and the monitoring timing and frequency domain resources for PDCCH are determined by the search space information indicated by the system messages. Through the above scheme, different frequency domain offsets can be determined at different times according to the time domain pattern.

[0158] Among them, the time domain pattern of PDCCH is the periodic monitoring opportunity, that is, the time when PDCCH may be sent. At this time, it is necessary to consider the difference between the frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resources when there is no PDCCH transmission and when there is PDCCH transmission. Accordingly, in these two cases, the method of calculating the frequency domain offset may be different.

[0159] Furthermore, during the time periods when no PDCCH is transmitted and when PDCCH is transmitted, corresponding frequency domain offsets need to be determined respectively to ensure that the wake-up frequency domain resources do not overlap with the PDCCH in the frequency domain.

[0160] ⑤SSB and PDCCH multiplexing pattern

[0161] The multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH may include time division, frequency division and time-frequency division, among which frequency division and time-frequency division need to consider the bandwidth after frequency domain superposition of SSB and PDCCH and their position in the initial downlink BWP, determine the frequency domain distance between the frequency domain position of the bandwidth after frequency domain superposition and the edge, determine the frequency domain offset based on the frequency domain distance, and ensure that it does not overlap with the frequency domain of the bandwidth after frequency domain superposition.

[0162] The embodiments of the present application further clarify the type of specified information, including the bandwidth of the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resources are located, the position of the SSB in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resources are located, the position of the bandwidth of the CORESET in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resources are located, the time domain pattern of the SSB, the time domain pattern of the PDCCH, the multiplexing time domain pattern of the SSB and PDCCH, etc., one or more of which can improve the flexibility of the technical solution of the embodiments of the present application.

[0163] That is to say, the scheme shown in the embodiment of the present application can determine the frequency domain offset of the frequency domain resources of LP-WUS from the frequency domain edge of the initial downlink BWP according to preset rules; the preset rules can determine the frequency domain offset based on one or more of the above information.

[0164] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with the frequency domain position of the SSB in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located; and the wake-up frequency domain resource does not overlap with the frequency domain resource of the SSB in the downlink BWP.

[0165] That is, the above frequency domain offset is related to the frequency domain position of the SSB in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0166] Among them, the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the frequency domain resources of SSB in the downlink BWP, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing SSB signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the SSB signal.

[0167] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with the frequency domain position of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located; and the wake-up frequency domain resource does not overlap with the frequency domain resource of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP.

[0168] That is, the frequency domain offset is related to the frequency domain position of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0169] Among them, the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the frequency domain resources of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing PDCCH signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the PDCCH signal.

[0170] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with the frequency domain position of the CORESET in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located; and the wake-up frequency domain resource does not overlap with the frequency domain resource of the CORESET in the downlink BWP.

[0171] That is, the frequency domain offset is related to the frequency domain position of the CORESET in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0172] Among them, the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the frequency domain resources of CORESET in the downlink BWP, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing CORESET signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the CORESET signal.

[0173] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with the bandwidth of the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located.

[0174] That is to say, the above-mentioned frequency domain offset is related to the bandwidth of the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the existing signal.

[0175] Specifically, according to the bandwidth of the initial downlink BWP, for example, the width of the initial downlink BWP is 40 MHz, the offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource can be calculated as 4 MHz according to a certain formula.

[0176] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with a position of other signals sent in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located; the other signals are signals other than the wake-up signal.

[0177] That is to say, the above-mentioned frequency domain offset is related to the position of other signals sent in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, where other signals refer to signals other than the wake-up signal, which can be SSB, PDCCH, PDSCH, or paging signal.

[0178] That is to say, the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the position of other signals sent in the downlink BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of frequency domain resources of other existing signals, and ensure the transmission performance of other signals.

[0179] Specifically, the frequency domain offset can be the offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource from the high / low frequency edge, wherein the offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource from the high frequency edge and the offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource from the low frequency edge can be the same or different.

[0180] Specifically, the frequency domain offset can be the offset of the start / end point of the wake-up frequency domain resource from the high / low frequency edge, wherein the offset of the start / end point of the wake-up frequency domain resource from the high frequency edge and the offset of the start / end point of the wake-up frequency domain resource from the low frequency edge can be the same or different.

[0181] For example, the frequency domain offset of the wake-up frequency domain resource of LP-WUS from the low frequency edge is The frequency domain offset of the LP-WUS wake-up frequency domain resource from the high frequency edge is FIG11 shows a schematic diagram of the location of a wake-up frequency domain resource of an LP-WUS involved in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG11 , the frequency domain resources gradually increase from bottom to top, and the frequency of the starting point of the wake-up frequency domain resource is lower than the frequency of the end point. At this time, the frequency domain offsets of the starting point of the wake-up frequency domain resource of the LP-WUS from the low frequency edge and the high frequency edge are respectively and Therefore, the starting points of the wake-up frequency domain resources of LP-WUS are located in the BWP. and Furthermore, the frequency domain resources between the wake-up frequency domain resources of the two LP-WUS segments are used to transmit the PDCCH, PDSCH and / or SSB.

[0182] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with the multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH in the downlink BWP.

[0183] That is, the above frequency domain offset is related to the multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH in the downlink BWP, wherein the multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH may include time division, frequency division and time-frequency division.

[0184] It should be noted that the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH in the downlink BWP, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of frequency domain resources of existing SSB and PDCCH signals, and ensure the transmission performance of SSB and PDCCH signals.

[0185] In some embodiments, when the multiplexing pattern indicates that the signal sent in the downlink BWP includes SSB and PDCCH within the first time period, the frequency domain offset within the first time period is associated with the frequency domain resources of SSB and PDCCH within the first time period; and the wake-up frequency domain resources within the first time period do not overlap with the frequency domain resources of SSB and PDCCH within the first time period.

[0186] That is to say, in the time division case, it is necessary to consider the position of the frequency domain resources of SSB and PDCCH in the initial downlink BWP in the same time period, and in the same time period, the frequency domain offset does not overlap with the frequency domain resources of SSB and PDCCH, so as to avoid the fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing SSB and PDCCH signals, and ensure the transmission performance of the SSB and PDCCH signals.

[0187] Taking SSB and PDCCH multiplexing pattern 1 as an example, SSB and PDCCH are time-division multiplexed. At different times, due to the different bandwidths and frequency domain locations of the SSB and PDCCH CORESETs, their frequency domain resources are at different distances from the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the initial downlink BWP. The time domain resources for SSB transmission are indicated by system messages, and the monitoring timing and frequency domain resources for PDCCH are determined by the search space information indicated in the system messages.

[0188] FIG12 shows a schematic diagram of another LP-WUS wake-up frequency domain resource location involved in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG12, the frequency domain offset of the LP-WUS resource from the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the initial downlink BWP is different at the SSB transmission time and the PDCCH transmission time. Time interval T1 includes the SSB transmission time. During T1, the LP-WUS wake-up frequency domain resource and the SSB frequency domain resource do not overlap. Time interval T2 includes the PDCCH transmission time. During T2, the LP-WUS wake-up frequency domain resource and the PDCCH frequency domain resource do not overlap. The LP-WUS wake-up frequency domain resources can be different or the same during T1 and T2.

[0189] That is to say, the frequency domain offset may be different at different times; for example, since the signals sent by the initial downlink BWP at different times may be different, their bandwidths and frequency domain positions in the initial downlink BWP are also different; taking the multiplexing pattern of SSB and PDCCH as an example, SSB and PDCCH are time-division multiplexed, and at different times, due to the different bandwidths and frequency domain positions of the CORESET of SSB and PDCCH, the distances of their frequency domain resources from the edge of the initial downlink BWP are also different; among them, the time domain resources sent by SSB can be indicated by a system message, and the monitoring timing and frequency domain resources of PDCCH can be determined by the search space information indicated by the system message; as shown in Figure 12, the frequency domain offset of the WUS resource from the edge of the initial downlink BWP is different at the sending time of SSB and the sending time of PDCCH.

[0190] In some embodiments, when the multiplexing pattern indicates the frequency domain positions of SSB and PDCCH in the downlink BWP, the frequency domain offset is associated with the frequency domain positions of SSB and PDCCH in the downlink BWP, and the wake-up frequency domain resources do not overlap with the frequency domain resources of SSB and PDCCH.

[0191] That is to say, in the case of frequency division and time-frequency division, it is necessary to consider the bandwidth of the SSB and PDCCH after frequency domain superposition and their position in the initial downlink BWP, determine the frequency domain distance between the frequency domain position of the bandwidth after frequency domain superposition and the edge, and determine the frequency domain offset based on the frequency domain distance to ensure that there is no overlap with the frequency domain of the bandwidth after frequency domain superposition, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of frequency domain resources of the existing SSB and PDCCH signals, and ensure the transmission performance of SSB and PDCCH signals.

[0192] Taking the multiplexing pattern 2 of SSB and PDCCH as an example, SSB and PDCCH are frequency-division multiplexed, and the network device sends SSB and PDCCH respectively on different bandwidths within the same time interval. Figure 13 shows a schematic diagram of the wake-up frequency domain resource position of another LP-WUS involved in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 13, when the multiplexing pattern indicates the frequency domain position of SSB and PDCCH in the downlink BWP, the frequency domain offset of the LP-WUS resource from the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the initial downlink BWP can ensure that the wake-up frequency domain resource of the LP-WUS does not overlap with the bandwidth after the frequency domain superposition of SSB and PDCCH.

[0193] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with a first time domain pattern of the SSB in the downlink BWP.

[0194] That is, the above frequency domain offset is related to the time domain pattern of the SSB in the downlink BWP.

[0195] It should be noted that the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the time domain pattern of the SSB in the downlink BWP, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing SSB signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the SSB signal.

[0196] In some embodiments, when the first time domain pattern indicates that the signal sent in the downlink BWP includes SSB during the second time period,

[0197] The frequency domain offset within the second time period is associated with the frequency domain resources of the SSB within the second time period; and the wake-up frequency domain resources within the second time period do not overlap with the frequency domain resources of the SSB within the second time period.

[0198] That is to say, when the first time domain pattern indicates that the signal sent in the downlink BWP includes SSB during the second time period, the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the frequency domain resources of the SSB in the second time period, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing SSB signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the SSB signal.

[0199] Taking the first time domain pattern of SSB as an example, Figure 14 shows a schematic diagram of the wake-up frequency domain resource position of another LP-WUS involved in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 14, the first time domain pattern indicates that the initial downlink BWP includes SSB in the second time period, and at different times in the second time period, the frequency domain resources where the SSB is located are different. In the entire second time period, the frequency domain offset of the LP-WUS resource from the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the initial downlink BWP can ensure that the LP-WUS resource does not overlap with the frequency domain resources where the SSB is located in the entire second time period.

[0200] In some embodiments, the frequency domain offset is associated with the second time domain pattern of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP.

[0201] That is, the above frequency domain offset is related to the time domain pattern of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP.

[0202] It should be noted that the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and does not overlap with the time domain pattern of the PDCCH in the downlink BWP, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing PDCCH signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the PDCCH signal.

[0203] In some embodiments, when the second time domain pattern indicates that the signal sent in the downlink BWP includes PDCCH during the third time period, the frequency domain offset within the third time period is associated with the frequency domain resources of the PDCCH within the third time period; and the wake-up frequency domain resources within the third time period do not overlap with the frequency domain resources of the PDCCH within the third time period.

[0204] That is to say, when the second time domain pattern indicates that the signal sent in the downlink BWP includes PDCCH during the third time period, the frequency domain offset is the offset between the wake-up frequency domain resource and the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the downlink bandwidth part BWP where the wake-up frequency domain resource is located, and the frequency domain resources of the PDCCH in the third time period do not overlap, so as to avoid fragmentation of the frequency domain resources of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, ensure that there is as large a continuous bandwidth as possible in the middle of the downlink bandwidth part BWP, do not affect the use of the frequency domain resources of the existing PDCCH signal, and ensure the transmission performance of the PDCCH signal.

[0205] Taking the second time domain pattern of PDCCH as an example, Figure 15 shows a schematic diagram of the wake-up frequency domain resource position of another LP-WUS involved in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 15, the second time domain pattern indicates that the initial downlink BWP contains PDCCH within the third time period, and at different times within the third time period, the frequency domain resources where the PDCCH is located are different. During the entire third time period, the frequency domain offset of the LP-WUS resource from the frequency domain bandwidth edge of the initial downlink BWP can ensure that the LP-WUS resource does not overlap with the frequency domain resources where the PDCCH is located within the entire third time period.
