Description

Method performed by user equipment and user equipment Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a user equipment and the user equipment. Background Art

[0002] In a wireless communication system, information can be exchanged between different communication nodes. Wireless communication can be carried out on licensed spectrum and / or unlicensed spectrum. An example of a wireless communication system is a system standardized by 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project), such as a 4G system or its evolved system based on LTE (Long-Term Evolution) wireless access technology, or a 5G system or its evolved system based on NR (New Radio) wireless access technology. In a communication system based on 3GPP specifications, examples of communication nodes may include UE (User Equipment) and base stations (such as eNB, also such as gNB). The radio link (radio link) from the base station to the UE can be called a downlink (DL), the radio link from the UE to the base station can be called an uplink (UL), and the radio link between UEs can be called a sidelink (SL). The interface for wireless transmission and / or reception between the base station and the UE can be called a Uu interface (such as the NR-Uu interface based on NR; such as the LTE-Uu interface based on LTE). The interface for wireless transmission and / or reception between UEs may be referred to as a PC5 interface (e.g., an NR-PC5 interface based on NR; or an LTE-PC5 interface based on LTE). The UE may transmit or receive in one or more BWPs (Bandwidth Parts) in each of one or more carriers, where each carrier may be an uplink carrier, a downlink carrier, or a sidecar carrier.

[0003] One or more positioning and / or ranging technologies may be supported in a wireless communication system. When positioning and / or ranging a UE, information such as the UE's position (e.g., absolute position; or relative position) and / or direction may be calculated and / or estimated based on measurements of downlink signals, uplink signals, and / or sidelink signals.

[0004] In order to support various services in wireless communication systems, such as part or all of communication, positioning, and ranging, a series of problems need to be solved, such as operation on licensed spectrum and / or unlicensed spectrum; operation on paired spectrum and / or unpaired spectrum; channel access mechanism; initial access; structure of physical layer channels and / or signals; transmission and / or reception based on unicast, groupcast, multicast, and broadcast; physical layer control information and / or signaling procedures (such as synchronization procedures, scheduling mechanisms, and feedback mechanisms); signal measurement; higher layer control information and / or signaling procedures; resource allocation and / or management; multi-carrier operation, such as carrier aggregation and / or dual connectivity. Connectivity); for example, multi-antenna transmission and / or reception; for example, beam-based operation; for example, multi-point coordination; for example, relaying operation; for example, mobility management; for example, interoperability and / or coexistence between different systems.

[0007] According to the present disclosure, a method performed by a user equipment is proposed, characterized by comprising: receiving a DCI for scheduling a sideline dynamic grant or for activating a type 2 sideline configuration grant; and if the first sideline symbol of a sideline allocation provided by the DCI is not earlier than symbol The PSSCH and its associated PSCCH corresponding to the sideline allocation are transmitted, otherwise the DCI is ignored; wherein the symbol The CP starts after the reception of the last symbol of the PDCCH carrying the DCI is completed. The next side symbol of the second, where the Contains a shared spectrum preparation interval Among them, for the licensed spectrum, and, for unlicensed spectrum, It is a predefined CPE length determined by the corresponding subcarrier spacing configuration.

[0009] Therefore, the present disclosure provides a method, wherein, when determining the sideline transmission preparation process time corresponding to a sideline dynamic license or a type 2 sideline configuration license, an additional sideline transmission preparation process time introduced due to the application of CPE is determined based on a predefined CPE length related to the subcarrier spacing configuration, so that the base station can schedule the UE's sideline transmission in the unlicensed spectrum without performing unlicensed spectrum operations (for example, without initializing and / or sharing any COT), without increasing the complexity of UE implementation.

[0077] A priority level can be associated with a priority value. For example, one priority level can be associated with a priority value of 0, while another priority level can be associated with a priority value of 1.

[0078] A priority level may correspond to a priority value in one or more protocol layers (or protocol sublayers), wherein the corresponding priority values ​​in different protocol layers (or protocol sublayers) may be equal or different. For example, one priority level may correspond to a priority value of 0 at the physical layer and a priority value of 1 at a higher layer; another priority level may correspond to a priority value of 1 at the physical layer and a priority value of 2 at a higher layer.

[0079] The relationship between the priority order and the corresponding priority value may be such that as the priority value increases, the priority (or "priority order") decreases.

[0080] The relationship between the priority order and the corresponding priority value may be such that as the priority value increases, the priority (or "priority order") increases. For example, if the priority values ​​corresponding to the priorities associated with the first side transmission and the second side transmission are 0 and 1, respectively, the priority of the first side transmission is lower than the priority of the second side transmission.

[0081] In some aspects of the present disclosure, a "sidelink resource" may refer to a resource that can be used for sidelink transmission, for example, a time-frequency resource, wherein the time-frequency resource may correspond to one or more symbols (or, one or more time slots) in the time domain and may correspond to one or more subchannels (or, one or more resource blocks; or, one or more subcarriers) in the frequency domain.

[0089] 5G can operate in both licensed spectrum, such as band n78 (3300MHz-3800MHz), and unlicensed spectrum, such as band n46 (5150MHz-5925MHz).

[0090] A 5G-capable node may support "operation with shared spectrum channel access". For example, on an unlicensed spectrum, "operation with shared spectrum channel access" may include a "channel access procedure" performed on a "shared-spectrum channel" or a "multi-channel access procedure" performed on multiple shared-spectrum channels, wherein the "channel access procedure" or the "multi-channel access procedure" may be used to evaluate whether part or all of the corresponding one or more shared spectrum channels can be used to perform one or more transmissions (e.g., downlink transmission, uplink transmission, or sidelink transmission), wherein a shared spectrum channel may include several contiguous RBs. The result of a channel access procedure may be "success" (or "channel access success") or "failure" (or "channel access failure"). The operation of evaluating whether one or more shared spectrum channels can be used to perform one or more transmissions may be called CCA (Clear Channel Assessment). This mechanism of performing CCA before using one or more shared spectrum channels can be called LBT (Listen Before Talk). Accordingly, each of the one or more shared spectrum channels can be called an "LBT channel". Accordingly, "channel access success" can be called "LBT success" and "channel access failure" can be called "LBT failure". Whether a communication node needs to perform CCA (or "whether LBT needs to be performed") and the specific process of CCA may be related to the regulations of the country and / or region where the communication node is located.

[0091] A 5G-capable node may support "operation without shared spectrum channel access", for example, on the licensed spectrum, the node may not perform the "channel access process" and / or the "multi-channel access process".

[0092] In some aspects of the present disclosure, "operation with shared spectrum channel access" may refer to operation on an unlicensed spectrum.

[0093] In some aspects of the present disclosure, “operation with shared spectrum channel access” may include part or all of NR sidelink operation, NR downlink operation, and NR uplink operation.

[0094] In some aspects of the present disclosure, "operation without shared spectrum channel access" may refer to operation on a licensed spectrum.

[0095] In some aspects of the present disclosure, “operation without shared spectrum channel access” may include part or all of NR sidelink operation, NR downlink operation, and NR uplink operation.

[0096] After executing the "channel access procedure" or the "multi-channel access procedure", the (one or more) transmissions performed on the corresponding (one or more) channels may be referred to as "channel occupancy" (Channel Occupancy, CO), and the corresponding duration may be referred to as "channel occupancy time" (Channel Occupancy Time, COT). A COT may be shared between one or more communication nodes. The time corresponding to the COT may include the duration of the (one or more) transmissions performed by the one or more communication nodes on the corresponding (one or more) channels. The time corresponding to the COT may include the time corresponding to the transmission gap between the (one or more) transmissions (for example, when the duration of the transmission gap is less than or equal to 25us). In some aspects of the present disclosure, a COT may not exceed a predefined or configured maximum value (for example, referred to as maximum COT, maximum COT, or simply MCOT).

[0097] For "operations with shared spectrum channel access" (or, for unlicensed spectrum), a shared spectrum channel can correspond to a carrier, or a part of the carrier. For example, the UE channel bandwidth corresponding to a carrier c1 can be 20MHz, and accordingly, a shared spectrum channel can correspond to the carrier c1. For another example, the UE channel bandwidth of a carrier c2 is 40MHz, and accordingly, one shared spectrum channel can correspond to the lower 20MHz frequency in the carrier c2, and another shared spectrum channel can correspond to the other 20MHz (i.e., the higher 20MHz frequency) in the carrier c2. Operations (for example, transmission; for example, reception; for example, measurement) on the carrier c2 (or other carriers whose corresponding UE channel bandwidth is greater than 20MHz) can be called "wideband operation".

[0098] For "operations with shared spectrum channel access" (or, for unlicensed spectrum), in order to ensure fair sharing of the channel by different communication nodes, certain restrictions may be imposed on the PSD (Power Spectral Density) and / or OCB (Occupied Channel Bandwidth) of signal transmission. For example, the maximum PSD cannot exceed 10dBm / MHz. For another example, when using a shared spectrum channel, the bandwidth containing 99% of the transmission power must be greater than or equal to a specific percentage (for example, 80%) of the nominal channel bandwidth. The restrictions (if any) may be established and enforced by regulatory agencies. In different countries and / or regions, the restrictions on PSD and / or OCB (if any) may be different.

[0099] In some aspects of the present disclosure, the frequency ranges to which “operation with shared spectrum channel access” applies may include one or more of the following:

[0100] FR1 (Frequency Range 1).

[0101] ●FR2-1 (Frequency Range 2-1).

[0102] ●FR2-2 (Frequency Range 2-2).

[0103] FR2 (Frequency Range 2): This may include FR2-1 and FR2-2, for example.

[0104] In some aspects of the present disclosure, the frequency ranges to which “operation without shared spectrum channel access” applies may include one or more of the following:

[0105] ●FR1.

[0106] ●FR2-1.

[0108] FR2. For example, this may include FR2-1 and FR2-2.

[0109] A wireless transmission can correspond to one or more "interlaces", and accordingly, the wireless transmission can be called an "interlace-based transmission". For example, for the subcarrier spacing configuration μ, we can define interleaves, for example, the corresponding interleave set is recorded as Among them, The set of CRBs corresponding to the interleaved intm can be defined as Among them, the set Each element in may correspond to a CRB number. Can be an integer greater than or equal to 1, for example, for μ = 0, can be equal to 10; for example, for μ=1, It may be equal to 5. The definition of interleaving (and corresponding transmission based on interleaving) may only apply to some subcarrier spacing configurations, but not to other subcarrier spacing configurations.

[0110] An interleaved transmission consisting of one or more RBs can be referred to as an "interlaced-RB-based transmission" or "interlace RB-based transmission." Compared to a transmission corresponding to one or more contiguous RBs (e.g., a "contiguous RB-based transmission"), an interleaved-RB-based transmission can occupy a larger bandwidth for a given number of RBs, thereby better meeting OCB constraints.

[0111] A sidelink bandwidth segment can be configured to use "interleaved RB-based transmission" or "contiguous RB-based transmission." For example, when a higher-layer parameter (e.g., transmissionStructureForPSCCHandPSSCH) in the sidelink bandwidth segment is configured as "contigousRB," the sidelink bandwidth segment can be used for "contiguous RB-based transmission." For another example, when the higher-layer parameter is configured as "interlaceRB," the sidelink bandwidth segment can be used for "interleaved RB-based transmission."

[0112] The allocation of sidetrack resources may include one or more of the following:

[0113] Sidelink resource allocation based on network scheduling (e.g., a UE determines the resources it uses for sidelink transmission based on the base station's scheduling). This may be referred to as "sidelink resource allocation mode 1" or "sidelink resource allocation scheme 1."

[0114] Sidelink resource allocation based on UE autonomous resource selection (e.g., a UE autonomously determines its resources for sidelink transmission). This may be referred to as "sidelink resource allocation mode 2" or "sidelink resource allocation scheme 2."

[0115] In the time domain, for the subcarrier spacing configuration μ, the start time of symbol l in a subframe can be recorded as in,

[0116] ● It can be a time relative to the start time of the subframe (ie, the start time of symbol 0 of the subframe), and accordingly,
