[0033] Before describing the embodiments of the present application, the following briefly introduces the relevant technologies:

[0034] 1. Multi-panel / TRP Scenario Description

[0035] The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 18 (R18) introduced multi-panel transmission technology to improve data transmission throughput. Network-side devices can configure two Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resource sets, which correspond to two panels. Network-side devices can dynamically indicate whether PUSCH is transmitted using one panel or two panels together through downlink control information (DCI). As shown in Figure 2, when two panels are transmitted together, part of the PUSCH transmission layer is mapped to one panel for transmission, and the other part of the transmission layer is mapped to another panel for transmission.

[0036] 2. Phase Tracking Reference Signal (PTRS)

[0037] 1. Background of the introduction of PTRS

[0038] In high-frequency communications, such as millimeter-wave, the hardware implementation of the analog front-end presents a significant challenge. For example, high-frequency crystal oscillators can generate significant phase noise, disrupting the orthogonality of subcarriers in orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) symbols. Therefore, PTRS is introduced in NR systems to estimate phase noise. The receiver can suppress and eliminate phase noise based on the PTRS estimation results. The following describes the PTRS design for control plane (CP) waveforms.

[0039] 2.PTRS port

[0040] For uplink, a maximum of 2 PTRS ports are supported, namely port 0 and port 1. For terminals with full-coherent antenna coherence capability, 1 PTRS port can be used by default; for terminals with partial-coherent and non-coherent antenna coherence capabilities, Radio Resource Control (RRC) can configure 1 or 2 PTRS ports. Among them, when RRC configures 2 PTRS ports, it does not mean that both PTRS ports will be actually used, but depends on the number of PUSCH data streams transmitted in the uplink or the codebook structure corresponding to the PUSCH. For example, in some cases, when the number of PUSCH data streams is 1, PTRS port 0 is used. When the number of PUSCH data streams is 2, both PTRS port 0 and port 1 are used.

[0041] 3. PTRS Resource Mapping

[0042] The resource mapping of PTRS is associated with a demodulation reference signal (DMRS), wherein the subcarriers of the frequency domain mapping are associated with the corresponding DMRS ports, and the symbols of the time domain mapping are associated with the occupied symbols of the corresponding DMRS.

[0043] The frequency domain resource mapping of PTRS can be expressed by the following formula:

[0044] Where k is the subcarrier index mapped by PTRS; i = 1, 2, 3, ...; n RNTI The RNTI associated with the DCI scheduling data transmission; N RB is the number of scheduled RBs; K PT-RS∈{2,4}, is the frequency domain mapping interval (frequency density) of PTRS, which is related to the number of scheduled RBs, see Table 1; The offset value is related to the DMRS port corresponding to the PTRS. If the high-level parameter resourceElementOffset is not configured, the column corresponding to 'offset00' in Tables 2 and 3 is used.

[0045] Table 1

[0046] Table 2

[0047] Table 3

[0048] The time domain resource mapping of PTRS is related to the occupied symbols of DMRS and the corresponding modulation and coding scheme (MCS) level of PUSCH, see Table 4.

[0049] Table 4

[0050] When the MCS level of the data channel is high, the corresponding modulation order and code rate are also high, making it more susceptible to phase noise, so the density in the time domain will be denser. When the MCS level of the data channel is low, the corresponding modulation order and code rate are relatively low, making it less affected by phase noise, so the density in the time domain will be relatively sparse. Therefore, in the design of PTRS, the time domain symbol interval of PTRS can be flexibly configured to {1, 2, 4} according to different MCS levels. In addition, when the time domain mapping collides with DMRS, PTRS mapping is not performed on this symbol, and the time domain interval calculation is re-based on the DMRS symbol.

[0051] 4. PTRS-DMRS association indication

[0052] For the uplink, since there is no Channel State Information (CSI) reported, how the network side device determines the strongest layer depends on the network side device implementation. However, the network side device needs to inform the terminal of the association relationship between PTRS and DMRS through the "PTRS-DMRS association" field in the downlink control information (DCI) so that the terminal can determine the resources and corresponding DMRS ports when sending PTRS. For terminals with different antenna coherence capabilities, the PTRS-DMRS association indication method used is slightly different.

[0053] For terminals with full-coherent antenna coherence capability, only one PTRS port needs to be configured, and for NR systems before Release 18 (Rel-18), the uplink only supports a maximum of 4 data streams (corresponding to 4 DMRS ports), so only 2 bits are needed to indicate the association relationship between PTRS and DMRS; for terminals with partial-coherent and non-coherent antenna coherence capability, if RRC only configures one PTRS port, only 2 bits are needed. The specific PTRS and DMRS association relationship indications are shown in Table 5:

[0054] Table 5

[0055] For terminals with partial-coherent and non-coherent antenna coherence capabilities, if RRC is configured with a maximum of two PTRS ports, the protocol stipulates that PUSCH ports 1000 and 1002 are associated with PTRS port 0, and PUSCH ports 1001 and 1003 are associated with PTRS port 1. Therefore, the DMRS ports corresponding to PTRS port 0 and port 1 need to be indicated separately, as shown in Table 6:

[0056] Table 6

[0057] Among them, the MSB 1 bit corresponds to PTRS port 0, and the LSB 1 bit corresponds to PTRS port 1.

[0058] In related art, the power scaling factor of PTRS is determined by the number of PUSCH transmission layers and assumes single-panel transmission. Given that panels cannot borrow power from each other, the power scaling factor in related art is not applicable to multi-panel transmission scenarios.

[0059] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a solution for determining PTRS power parameters in a multi-panel transmission scenario to solve the problem that the PTRS power parameter determination solution of the related art cannot be applied to the multi-panel scenario, resulting in poor terminal PUSCH transmission performance.

[0060] The power parameter determination method and power parameter determination device provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through some embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0061] FIG3 shows a flow chart of a method for determining power parameters provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG3 , the method for determining power parameters includes the following steps:

[0062] Step 301: The terminal receives a first message from a network-side device, where the first message is used to schedule a first PUSCH transmission, and the first PUSCH transmission is associated with a first SRS resource set and a second SRS resource set.

[0063] Step 302: The terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set according to the PTRS port related information and the transmission parameters corresponding to the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set;

[0064] The target SRS resource set is any one of the first SRS resource set and the second SRS resource set.

[0065] The first message may be, for example, DCI, that is, the DCI indicates the number of SRS resource sets associated with PUSCH transmission. For example, the DCI carries an SRS resource set indicator field. When the SRS resource set indicator indicates '01', it indicates that the PUSCH is associated with two SRS resource sets.

[0066] The PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set may be part of the transmission layer of the first PUSCH, or the entire transmission layer of the first PUSCH.

[0067] The PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set can be understood as the PTRS port being associated with a certain DMRS port of the target SRS resource set.

[0068] When the target SRS resource set is the first SRS resource set, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the first SRS resource set based on the PTRS port related information and the transmission parameters of the first SRS resource set. Correspondingly, when the target SRS resource set is the second SRS resource set, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the second SRS resource set based on the PTRS port related information and the transmission parameters of the second SRS resource set.

[0069] The power parameter of the PTRS port can be, for example, the EPRE ratio

[0070] In an embodiment of the present application, a terminal receives a first message from a network-side device, the first message being used to schedule a first PUSCH transmission, the first PUSCH transmission being associated with both a first SRS resource set and a second SRS resource set. The terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set based on PTRS port-related information and the TPMI associated with the target SRS resource set. The target SRS resource set is either the first SRS resource set or the second SRS resource set. In this way, the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with each SRS resource set can be determined, thereby determining the power parameter of the PTRS port corresponding to each panel, thereby ensuring the PUSCH transmission performance of the terminal in a multi-panel scenario.

[0071] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set based on the PTRS port related information and the transmission parameter corresponding to the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set, including:

[0072] When the uplink PTRS power parameter indication value configured by the network side device is a target value, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set based on the PTRS port related information and the transmission parameters corresponding to the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set.

[0073] Optionally, the uplink PTRS power parameter is UL-PTRS-power, and the target value is '00'. Here, '00' can be understood as indicating that PTRS can borrow power. In this case, the terminal can determine the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set based on the PTRS port-related information and the transmission parameters corresponding to the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set.

[0074] When the indication value of UL-PTRS-power is '01', the power value of PTRS may be a fixed value, which is not described in detail in the embodiment of the present application.

[0075] In some embodiments, the PTRS port related information includes the PTRS port number Q p , the transmission parameters include the number of transmission layers;

[0076] The terminal determines, based on the PTRS port related information and a transmission parameter corresponding to the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set, a power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set, including at least one of the following:

[0077] When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 1, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to be 3×Q p -3;

[0078] When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to be 3×Q p -3.

[0079] The power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set can be understood as the power parameter of the PTRS port mapped to the transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set. When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is different, the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set may be different. The transmission parameter corresponding to the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set may include the number of transmission layers of the PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set. PTRS port number Q p The power parameters of the PTRS ports may also be different. That is, the terminal can p and the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set to determine the power parameters of the PTRS port.

[0080] In some embodiments, the PTRS port related information includes the PTRS port number Q p , the transmission parameters include the number of transmission layers and the transmission type;

[0081] The terminal determines, according to the PTRS port related information and a transmission parameter of a PUSCH transmission layer associated with the target SRS resource set, a power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set, including at least one of the following:

[0082] When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2 and the transmission type is fully coherent codebook transmission, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to be 3×Q p ;

[0083] When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2 and the transmission type is partially coherent or incoherent codebook transmission, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to 3×Q p -3;

[0084] When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2 and the transmission type is non-codebook transmission, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to be 3×Q p -3.

[0085] It should be noted that when the transmission type of the target SRS resource set is codebook transmission, the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set can be indicated by the transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) associated with the target SRS resource set. When the transmission type of the target SRS resource set is non-codebook transmission, the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set can be indicated by the SRS resource indicator (SRI) associated with the target SRS resource set.

[0086] When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is the same, for different transmission types, the power parameters of the PTRS ports associated with the target SRS resource set may be different or the same.

[0087] The following describes various possible calculation methods for the power parameters of the PTRS port.

[0088] Method 1: When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 1, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to 3×Q p -3.

[0089] In this method, when the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 1 and the number of PTRS ports is Q p When it is 1, the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set is 0; when the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 1 and the number of PTRS ports is Q p When it is 2, the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set is 3.

[0090] Mode 2: When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to 3×Q p -3.

[0091] In this method, when the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2 and the number of PTRS ports is Q p When it is 1, the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set is 0; when the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2 and the number of PTRS ports is Q p When it is 2, the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set is 3.

[0092] Mode 3: When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2, if the transmission type of the target SRS resource set is fully coherent codebook transmission, the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to 3×Q p .

[0093] Mode 4: When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2, the transmission type of the target SRS resource set is partially coherent or incoherent codebook transmission, and the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to 3×Q p -3.

[0094] Mode 5: When the number of transmission layers of the target SRS resource set is 2, the transmission type of the target SRS resource set is non-codebook transmission, and the terminal determines the power parameter of the PTRS port associated with the target SRS resource set to 3×Q p -3.

[0095] Method 2, method 3, method 4, and method 5 are all applicable to the case where the number of transmission layers of the SRS resource set is 2. The difference between the two is that the power parameter of the PTRS port in method 2 is only related to the number of PTRS ports Q. p Relatedly, in Method 3, the power parameters of the PTRS port are determined by further considering the transmission type of the SRS resource set. It should be noted that when the number of transmission layers of the SRS resource set is 2, whether the power parameters of the PTRS port are determined using Method 2 or using Methods 3 to 5 depends on the RRC configuration.

[0096] Optionally, the Q p The number of PTRS ports scheduled for the first message; or

[0097] The Q pis the total number of PTRS ports used for the first PUSCH transmission; or,

[0098] The Q p The number of PTRS ports associated with the target SRS resource set; or

[0099] The Q p The maximum number of PTRS ports configured by the Radio Resource Control (RRC) for spatial division multiplexing (SDM) transmission.

[0100] The following provides specific embodiments to illustrate a solution for determining the power parameters of a PTRS port.

[0103] Table 7 can be understood as a combination of the above-mentioned methods 1, 3 to 5.
