It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, only the base station in the NR system is used as an example for introduction, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.

[0047] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the random access process related to the present application is described.

[0048] The random access procedure may be a contention-based random access procedure or a non-contention-based random access procedure. The random access procedure may be a four-step random access procedure (also known as a Type-1 random access procedure) or a two-step random access procedure (also known as a Type-2 random access procedure).

[0049] In the four-step random access procedure (4-step RACH), the UE first sends message 1 (MSG.1) containing a preamble to the network. After detecting the preamble, the network sends message 2 (MSG.2) or a Random Access Response (RAR) message, which contains the preamble number detected by the network and the uplink radio resources allocated to the UE for sending message 3 (MSG.3). After receiving MSG.2, the UE confirms that at least one of the preamble numbers carried in MSG.2 matches the number of the preamble it sent. It then sends MSG.3 containing contention resolution information based on the resources indicated by the RAR. After receiving MSG.3, the network sends message 4 (MSG.4) containing contention resolution information. After receiving MSG.4, the UE confirms that the resolution information it sent in MSG.3 matches the contention resolution information it sent, completing the four-step random access procedure.

[0050] The network includes uplink grant (UL grant) information in the RAR to indicate the scheduling information of the MSG.3 Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), and includes information such as the Random Access Preamble ID (RAPID), the Temporary Cell Radio Network Temporary Identity (TC-RNTI), and the Timing Advance (TA). If the network does not receive the MSG.3 PUSCH, it can schedule the retransmission of the MSG.3 PUSCH in the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) scrambled by the TC-RNTI.

[0051] For the contention random access process, different UEs randomly select preambles for transmission. In this way, different UEs may select the same preamble to send on the same time-frequency radio resources (RACH opportunity (RO) resources). This situation can be understood as a UE preamble conflict. In this case, different UEs will receive the same RAR. At this time, different UEs will transmit MSG.3PUSCH according to the scheduling information in the RAR UL grant. The network decodes the PUSCH (including contention resolution information) sent by the UE on the MSG.3PUSCH scheduling resources, so the network will include the contention resolution information received in MSG.3 in MSG.4. If the contention resolution information in MSG.4 received by the UE matches the contention resolution information sent by the UE in MSG.3PUSCH, the UE considers that the contention resolution is successful. If they do not match, the contention resolution is considered unsuccessful.

[0052] If the contention resolution is unsuccessful, the UE reselects RACH resources, performs physical random access channel (PRACH) transmission, and makes the next random access attempt.

[0053] In the two-step random access (2-step RACH) process, the first step is for the UE to send MsgA to the network. After receiving MsgA, the network sends MsgB to the UE. If the UE does not receive MsgB within a certain period of time, the UE increments the counter that counts the number of times MsgA has been sent and resends MsgA. If the counter counts the number of times MsgA has been sent, the UE switches from the 2-step random access process to the 4-step random access process.

[0054] MsgA consists of the MsgA preamble and MsgA PUSCH parts. The preamble part is sent on the Ro used for 2-step RACH, and the PUSCH part is sent on the MsgA PUSCH resources associated with the MsgA preamble and Ro. MsgA PUSCH resources are a set of PUSCH resources configured for each PRACH time slot, including time-frequency resources and demodulation reference signal (DMRS) resources, and are associated with the PRACH resources within the PRACH slot.

[0055] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the duplex mode enhancement related to the present application is explained.

[0056] In 5G mobile communication systems, full-duplex technology has been enhanced to accommodate diverse scenarios and service requirements. Key 5G scenarios include enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC), and massive machine-type communication (mMTC). These scenarios place high demands on the system for reliability, low latency, high bandwidth, and wide coverage.

[0057] In NR, configuring full-duplex operation can significantly improve the latency and coverage performance of time division duplex (TDD) systems. For example, subband non-overlapping full duplex reduces self-interference due to the non-overlapping uplink and downlink subbands, thus reducing transmission latency and enhancing coverage.

[0058] For a downlink time slot (DL slot), the network configures the downlink (DL) bandwidth part (Band Width Part, BWP) for the UE (configured by TDD uplink and downlink common configuration (tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon) or TDD uplink and downlink dedicated configuration (tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated)), as shown in time slot 1 in Figure 2; for an uplink (UL) time slot, the network configures the UL BWP for the UE (configured by TDD uplink and downlink common configuration (tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon) or TDD uplink and downlink dedicated configuration (tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated)), as shown in time slot 4 in Figure 3.

[0059] For a downlink timeslot (DL slot) (configured by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated), in a full duplex scenario, as shown in Figure 2, there are the following cases:

[0060] Case 1: Configure DL BWP, such as slot 1;

[0061] Case 2: Configure DL BWP and uplink sub-band (UL sub-band), such as slot 2.

[0062] For an uplink timeslot (UL slot) (configured by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated), in a full duplex scenario, as shown in Figure 3, there are the following cases:

[0063] Case 3: Configure UL BWP, such as slot 4;

[0064] Case 4: Configure UL BWP and downlink sub-band (DL sub-band), such as slot 5.

[0065] For sub-band full duplex (SBFD) operation, one SBFD sub-band consists of one resource block (RB) or a set of consecutive RBs with the same transmission direction.

[0066] The time unit (e.g., slot or symbol) in which the gNB uses SBFD operation may be referred to as an SBFD time unit (e.g., slot or symbol).

[0067] An exemplary duplex mode is: full-duplex on the network side, where uplink and downlink transmissions can occur simultaneously at different frequency domain locations at the same time. To prevent interference between uplink and downlink, a guard band (Guard Band) can be reserved between the frequency domain locations corresponding to different transmission directions (corresponding to duplex subbands); half-duplex on the terminal side, consistent with TDD, where only uplink or downlink transmissions can occur at the same time, not both. It is understood that in this duplex mode, uplink and downlink transmissions on the network side can only be directed to different terminals at the same time.

[0068] Another exemplary duplex mode is: both the terminal side and the network side are full-duplex, as shown in Figure 4, that is, both the terminal side and the network side operate in duplex mode. Specifically, for the terminal side and the network side, at the same time, uplink transmission (uplink, UL) and downlink transmission (downlink, DL) can be carried out simultaneously at different frequency domain positions.

[0069] For full-duplex at the UE side, a larger guard band (GB) (larger than the GB of the base station frequency division (FD)) may be required to suppress self-interference, as shown in FIG5 .

[0070] For a communication device, simultaneous UL reception and DL transmission can cause self-interference. To ensure transmission in the interfered direction, the communication device needs to have self-interference cancellation capabilities, such as reserving a guard band between the receive and transmit bands. However, this reduces UE throughput.

[0071] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the configured granted physical uplink shared channel (CGPUSCH) in the idle state (Idle) or the inactive state (Inactive) related to the present application is described.

[0072] At present, NR supports configuring CG PUSCH resources in the Radio Resource Control (RRC) deactivated state for small data transmission.

[0073] The configured CG PUSCH resources need to be mapped to the synchronization signal block (SSB). The terminal selects an SSB that meets a certain reference signal received power (RSRP) quality based on the measurement of the SSB, and determines the CG PUSCH resources for small data transmission based on the selected SSB.

[0074] In order to facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the problems solved by the present application are explained.

[0075] At present, duplex enhancement in the 5G stage mainly considers connected UEs, and the network side supports full duplex, and the UE side supports half duplex.

[0076] In an embodiment of the present application, the duplex mode can be configured in an idle state or an inactive state, or dynamically configured during a random access phase, or configured in a connected state. Specifically, the duplex configuration can be determined based on the configuration of an uplink data shared channel resource or a set of uplink data shared channel resources, without requiring separate signaling for duplex configuration. The uplink data shared channel can be transmitted in duplex mode, thereby improving the utilization of the uplink data shared channel resources and reducing the transmission latency of the uplink data shared channel.

[0077] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions of the present application are described in detail below through specific embodiments. The above related technologies can be combined arbitrarily with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application as optional solutions, and all of them fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present application. The embodiments of the present application include at least part of the following contents.

[0078] FIG6 is a schematic flow chart of a method 200 for determining a duplex configuration according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG6 , the method 200 for determining a duplex configuration may include at least part of the following contents:

[0079] S210, the network side device sends uplink configuration information to the terminal; wherein the uplink configuration information is used to configure at least one of the following: an uplink data shared channel resource, a set of uplink data shared channel resources; wherein the uplink configuration information is associated with a duplex configuration;

[0080] S220, the terminal receives the uplink configuration information from the network side device;

[0081] S230: The terminal determines a duplex configuration according to the uplink configuration information.

[0082] It should be understood that FIG6 shows the steps or operations of the method 200 for determining a duplex configuration, but these steps or operations are merely examples, and the embodiments of the present application may also perform other operations or variations of the operations in FIG6 .

[0083] In an embodiment of the present application, under the duplex configuration determined based on uplink configuration information, the terminal may support full-duplex or half-duplex, and the network-side device may support full-duplex or half-duplex. For example, the network-side device supports full-duplex, and the terminal supports full-duplex or half-duplex. For another example, the network-side device supports half-duplex, and the terminal supports half-duplex.

[0084] In an embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the duplex configuration based on the configuration of the uplink data sharing channel resource or the set of uplink data sharing channel resources, without the need for separate signaling to perform the duplex configuration. The duplex configuration is more flexible, and the duplex configuration is associated with the uplink data sharing channel resource. The uplink data sharing channel can be transmitted in the duplex mode, thereby improving the utilization rate of the uplink data sharing channel resource and reducing the transmission delay of the uplink data sharing channel.

[0085] The duplex configuration described in the embodiments of the present application may also be referred to as at least one of the following: enhanced duplex configuration, enhanced duplex mode, cross duplex (XDD), enhanced full duplex, and enhanced full duplex mode. The embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0086] The duplex configuration described in the embodiments of the present application may refer to determining an uplink subband from a downlink time unit, or determining a downlink subband from an uplink time unit, thereby enabling downlink and uplink duplex transmission in a downlink time unit, or enabling downlink and uplink duplex transmission in an uplink time unit.

[0087] The reference signal described in the embodiments of the present application includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0088] Synchronization Signal Block (SSB), Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), message A (MsgA) in two-step random access, MsgA PUSCH, Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH), Tracking Reference Signal (TRS) (TRS is a reference signal used for time-frequency resource estimation), Sounding Reference Signal (SRS).

[0089] The association relationship between the reference signal and the uplink data shared channel resource in the embodiments of the present application includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0090] The association relationship between SSB and uplink data shared channel resources, the association relationship between CSI-RS and uplink data shared channel resources, the association relationship between PRACH resources and uplink data shared channel resources, the association relationship between MsgA resources and uplink data shared channel resources, the association relationship between MsgA PUSCH resources and uplink data shared channel resources, the association relationship between TRS resources and uplink data shared channel resources, and the association relationship between SRS resources and uplink data shared channel resources.

[0091] The association relationship described in the embodiment of the present application can also be called a mapping relationship, which can be an equal relationship between two signals or channel resources in a certain sense.

[0092] The SSB described in the embodiment of the present application can also be called a resource block, which includes at least one of a synchronization signal, a broadcast signal, a broadcast channel (PBCH), and other system messages.

[0093] In some embodiments, the uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information are semi-static or configuration grant (CG) resources. Optionally, the uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information are CG PUSCH resources. Optionally, the CG PUSCH resources may include at least one of the following: CG PUSCH time-frequency resources, DMRS sequences, and DMRS ports.

[0094] In the embodiment of the present application, the uplink data sharing channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information may include: uplink data sharing channel resources directly configured by the uplink configuration information, or uplink data sharing channel resources in a set of uplink data sharing channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present application, since the uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information are semi-static or configuration grant (CG) resources, the uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information can be used in the idle state (Idle) or the deactivated state (Inactive), and the duplex configuration determined based on the uplink configuration information can also be used in the idle state (Idle) or the deactivated state (Inactive). That is, this embodiment can support the duplex configuration in the idle state (Idle) or the deactivated state (Inactive), thereby improving the resource utilization efficiency in the idle state (Idle) or the deactivated state (Inactive).

[0096] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information can be configured in an idle state or an inactive state, or the uplink configuration information can be dynamically configured during a random access phase. In other words, embodiments of the present application can obtain a duplex configuration in an idle state or an inactive state or during a random access phase, making the duplex configuration more flexible and eliminating the need for additional duplex configuration signaling.

[0097] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information can also be configured in a connected state. In other words, the embodiments of the present application can obtain the duplex configuration in a connected state, which is more flexible and does not require the introduction of additional duplex configuration signaling.

[0098] In some embodiments, the above S230 may specifically include:

[0099] The terminal determines, based on an uplink data shared channel resource in at least one downlink time unit, an uplink subband in the at least one downlink time unit;

[0100] The uplink data sharing channel resources on the at least one downlink time unit include at least one of the following: part or all of the uplink data sharing channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information, and part or all of the uplink data sharing channel resources in the set of uplink data sharing channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information.

[0101] This embodiment clarifies that the uplink subband on at least one downlink time unit can be determined based on the uplink data shared channel resources on at least one downlink time unit. After the uplink subband on the at least one downlink time unit is determined, the duplex configuration on the at least one downlink time unit can be known.

[0102] In some embodiments, the downlink time unit may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol, time slot, subframe, frame, microsecond, millisecond, second, minute, hour, day, week, month.

[0103] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the downlink time unit as a downlink time slot (DL slot) as an example, the terminal can determine the uplink subband (uplink subband) in the downlink time slot through the CG PUSCH resource in the downlink time slot.

[0104] In some embodiments, the terminal determines that part or all of the physical resource blocks (PRBs) occupied by the uplink data shared channel resources on the at least one downlink time unit are uplink subbands, wherein the uplink data shared channel resources on the at least one downlink time unit are valid.

[0105] Exemplarily, the uplink data shared channel resource in at least one downlink time unit is valid, which can be understood as: satisfying a mapping relationship between a reference signal and the uplink data shared channel resource in at least one downlink time unit.

[0106] It should be noted that uplink data shared channel resources need to be mapped to reference signals. The terminal selects a reference signal that meets a certain RSRP quality based on the reference signal measurement and determines the uplink data shared channel resources for uplink data transmission based on the selected reference signal. Taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB as an example, the configured CG PUSCH resource needs to be mapped to the SSB. The terminal selects an SSB that meets a certain RSRP quality based on the SSB measurement and determines the CG PUSCH resource for small data transmission based on the selected SSB.

[0107] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as the CG PUSCH resource and the downlink time unit as the downlink time slot (DL slot), in all downlink time slots where the CG PUSCH resource appears, the PRB occupied by the CG PUSCH resource is considered to be configured as an uplink subband (uplink subband), and the CG PUSCH resource is considered to be valid.

[0108] For example, the uplink data shared channel resource is the CG PUSCH resource and the downlink time unit is the downlink time slot. As shown in FIG7 , in the downlink time slot n, part of the PRBs occupied by the CG PUSCH resources (PRBs excluding the guard interval) are considered to be configured as an uplink subband, and the CG PUSCH resources are considered to be valid.

[0109] In some embodiments, in each downlink time unit of at least one downlink time unit, part or all of the bandwidth occupied by at least one uplink data shared channel resource adjacent to the uplink subband serves as a guard interval. Specifically, the guard interval can suppress self-interference caused by simultaneous reception and transmission.

[0110] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the downlink time unit as a downlink time slot (DL slot), as shown in FIG7 , in the downlink time slot n, the entire bandwidth occupied by a CG PUSCH resource adjacent to the uplink subband is the guard interval.

[0111] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as the CG PUSCH resource and the downlink time unit as the downlink time slot (DL slot), as shown in FIG8 , in the downlink time slot n, part of the bandwidth occupied by a CG PUSCH resource adjacent to the uplink subband is the guard interval.

[0112] In some embodiments, the above S230 may specifically include:

[0113] The terminal determines, according to an uplink data shared channel resource in at least one uplink time unit, a downlink subband in the at least one uplink time unit;

[0114] The uplink data sharing channel resources on the at least one uplink time unit include at least one of the following: part or all of the uplink data sharing channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information, and part or all of the uplink data sharing channel resources in the set of uplink data sharing channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information.

[0115] This embodiment clarifies that the downlink subband on at least one uplink time unit can be determined based on the uplink data sharing channel resources on at least one uplink time unit. After the downlink subband on at least one uplink time unit is determined, the duplex configuration on the at least one uplink time unit can be known.

[0116] In some embodiments, the uplink time unit may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: OFDM symbol, time slot, subframe, frame, microsecond, millisecond, second, minute, hour, day, week, month.

[0117] In some embodiments, the terminal determines part or all of the PRBs other than the PRBs occupied by the uplink data shared channel resources on the at least one uplink time unit as downlink subbands, wherein the uplink data shared channel resources on the at least one uplink time unit are valid.

[0118] In some embodiments, in each of the at least one uplink time unit, part or all of the bandwidth occupied by at least one uplink data shared channel resource adjacent to the downlink subband serves as a guard interval. Specifically, the guard interval can suppress self-interference caused by simultaneous reception and transmission.

[0119] Exemplarily, the uplink data shared channel resource on at least one uplink time unit is valid, which can be understood as: satisfying a mapping relationship between a reference signal and the uplink data shared channel resource on at least one uplink time unit.

[0120] In some embodiments, the at least one uplink data shared channel resource satisfies at least one of the following:

[0121] The mapping relationship between the reference signal and the uplink data shared channel resources is satisfied and the uplink data shared channel is not used for sending;

[0122] The mapping relationship between the reference signal and the uplink data shared channel resources is satisfied, and the uplink data shared channel is not used to send the uplink data shared channel when the preset conditions are met;

[0123] The mapping relationship from reference signal to uplink data shared channel resources is not satisfied.

[0124] Specifically, this embodiment clarifies the conditions that must be met by at least one uplink data shared channel resource where the guard interval is located, which is conducive to better utilization of the uplink data shared channel resources.

[0125] It should be noted that uplink data sharing channel resources that satisfy the mapping relationship between reference signals and uplink data sharing channel resources can be considered valid; uplink data sharing channel resources that do not satisfy the mapping relationship between reference signals and uplink data sharing channel resources can be considered invalid.

[0126] In some embodiments, the preset condition includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

[0127] The time domain or frequency domain interval between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal is less than or not greater than a first threshold;

[0128] There is a reference signal transmission in the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink sub-band;

[0129] A downlink common channel or a downlink common signal is transmitted in the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink sub-band;

[0130] There is reception of a reference signal in the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink sub-band;

[0131] A downlink common channel or a downlink common signal is received in the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink sub-band.

[0132] For example, when a preset condition is met, the uplink data shared channel is not used to transmit, thereby avoiding interference of the transmission of the uplink data shared channel with the transmission of the reference signal or the downlink common channel or the downlink common signal.

[0133] For example, taking the random access uplink resource as CG PUSCH resource and the downlink time unit as a downlink time slot (DL slot), as shown in FIG7 or FIG8 , the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink subband may include the bandwidth occupied by the guard interval and the downlink subband.

[0134] Optionally, the first threshold may be agreed upon by a protocol, or the first threshold may be configured by a network-side device.

[0135] In some embodiments, the preset condition is pre-configured by a network side instruction, or the preset condition is agreed upon by a protocol.

[0136] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information is further used to configure a guard interval on the at least one downlink time unit or the at least one uplink time unit. Specifically, the setting of the guard interval can suppress self-interference caused by simultaneous reception and transmission.

[0137] In an embodiment of the present application, in support of enhanced duplex mode, uplink data sharing channel resources may be allowed on an uplink subband of an additionally configured downlink time unit, so a new type of uplink data sharing channel resource may appear.

[0138] In some embodiments, the uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information include but are not limited to at least one of the following types:

[0139] Uplink data shared channel resources existing in the uplink time unit;

[0140] Uplink data shared channel resources existing in time units with flexible symbols;

[0141] Uplink data shared channel resources existing on the uplink subband of the downlink time unit;

[0142] Uplink data shared channel resources existing in an uplink subband of a downlink time unit, and no reference signal resources existing in the downlink time unit;

[0143] An uplink data shared channel resource existing on an uplink subband of a downlink time unit, and a reference signal resource existing on the downlink time unit;

[0144] Uplink data not in the uplink subband of the downlink time unit shares channel resources.

[0145] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource, the time unit as a time slot, and the reference signal as an SSB as an example, the CG PUSCH resource configured by the uplink configuration information includes at least one of the following types:

[0146] CG PUSCH resources existing in the uplink timeslot;

[0147] CG PUSCH resources exist on time slots with flexible symbols;

[0148] CG PUSCH resources existing in the uplink subband of the downlink timeslot;

[0149] CG PUSCH resources exist in the uplink subband of the downlink timeslot, and there are no SSB resources in the downlink timeslot;

[0150] CG PUSCH resources exist in the uplink subband of a downlink timeslot, and SSB resources exist in the downlink timeslot;

[0151] CG PUSCH resources that are not on the uplink subband of the downlink timeslot.

[0152] In some embodiments, the uplink time unit may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: OFDM symbol, time slot, subframe, frame, microsecond, millisecond, second, minute, hour, day, week, month.

[0153] In some embodiments, the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information satisfies at least one of the following:

[0154] Including different types of uplink data sharing channel resources;

[0155] Including uplink data sharing channel resources of the same type;

[0156] mapped to the same reference signal resource;

[0157] Mapped to different reference signal resources.

[0158] This embodiment clarifies the types of uplink data shared channel resources in the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information and the reference signal resources to which the set of uplink data shared channel resources is mapped, so that the set of uplink data shared channel resources can be configured more flexibly.

[0159] In some embodiments, the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information is used for repeated transmission of the uplink data shared channel. Optionally, the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information is used for repeated transmission during an initial transmission of the uplink data shared channel, or the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information is used for repeated transmission during a retransmission of the uplink data shared channel.

[0160] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information is common configuration information, wherein the common configuration information is used to configure uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink subband and uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband, or the common configuration information is used to configure a set of uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink subband and a set of uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband. For example, the uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband may be uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink time unit. For another example, the uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband may be uplink data shared channel resources on a time unit containing flexible symbols.

[0161] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource, the uplink configuration information is a public CG configuration. Specifically, the same CG configuration (i.e., the public CG configuration) is used to configure two possible types of CG PUSCH resources, namely: CG PUSCH resources on the UL subband and CG PUSCH resources on the non-UL subband.

[0162] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information is two independent pieces of configuration information, wherein the two independent pieces of configuration information are used to configure uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink subband and uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband, respectively, or the two independent pieces of configuration information are used to configure a set of uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink subband and a set of uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband, respectively. For example, the uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband may be uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink time unit. For another example, the uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband may be uplink data shared channel resources on a time unit containing flexible symbols.

[0163] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource, the uplink configuration information is two independent CG configurations. Specifically, one CG configuration is used to configure the CG PUSCH resource on the UL subband; and another CG configuration is used to configure the CG PUSCH resource on the non-UL subband.

[0164] In some embodiments, the association relationship between the uplink data shared channel resource configured by the uplink configuration information and the reference signal satisfies at least one of the following:

[0165] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are independently associated with the reference signal;

[0166] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are independently associated with the reference signal;

[0167] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are associated with the reference signal;

[0168] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are associated with the reference signal;

[0169] The uplink data shared channel resource is not associated with the reference signal that overlaps with it in the time domain.

[0170] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB as an example, at least two different uplink data shared channel resources are independently associated with the reference signal, for example, as follows: CG PUSCH resource 1 is associated with SSB 0, CG PUSCH resource 2 is associated with SSB 1, CG PUSCH resource 3 is associated with SSB 0, and CG PUSCH resource 4 is associated with SSB 1. In this example, one reference signal may be associated with at least two CG PUSCH resources as quickly as possible, for example, some CG PUSCH resources are in the uplink subband (UL subband) and some CG PUSCH resources are in the normal uplink bandwidth (UL band). In this way, a group of CG PUSCH resources that are more compact in time and associated with the same reference signal can be selected, which is conducive to completing multiple CG PUSCH transmissions / repetitions with low latency.

[0171] For example, taking the uplink data sharing channel resource as the CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as the SSB as an example, at least two different types of uplink data sharing channel resources are independently associated with the reference signal, for example, as follows: the CG PUSCH resource configured on the uplink subband of the downlink slot and the uplink CG PUSCH resource on the uplink slot or the flexible slot are independently associated with the SSB resource.

[0172] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB, at least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are independently associated with the reference signal. For example, the CG PUSCH resource present in a time slot with flexible symbols is associated with SSB 0, the CG PUSCH resource present in an uplink subband of a downlink time slot is associated with SSB 1, and the CG PUSCH resource present in an uplink subband not in a downlink time slot is associated with SSB 3. For another example, the CG PUSCH resource present in a time slot with flexible symbols is associated with an odd-numbered SSB, and the CG PUSCH resource present in an uplink subband of a downlink time slot is associated with an even-numbered SSB. In this example, a reference signal may be associated with at least two different types of CG PUSCH resources as quickly as possible, such as some CG PUSCH resources in an uplink subband (UL subband) and some CG PUSCH resources in a normal uplink bandwidth (UL band). This allows a group of CG PUSCH resources associated with the same reference signal to be selected that are more compact in time, facilitating the transmission / repetition of multiple CG PUSCHs with low latency.

[0173] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB, at least two different uplink data shared channel resources are associated with the reference signal together, for example, as follows: CG PUSCH resources are configured relative to SSB resources, with some CG PUSCHs being on the uplink subband of the downlink slot, and some CG PUSCH resources being in normal uplink slots or flexible slots. SSB and CG PUSCH association is performed in a specific order, without distinguishing which slot the CG PUSCH is in. The complexity of associating SSB with CG PUSCH resources can be reduced, as there is no need to distinguish between different types of CG PUSCH resources.

[0174] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB as an example, at least two different uplink data shared channel resources are associated with the reference signal together, for example, as follows: the CG PUSCH resource and the SSB are associated in order of identification, such as CG PUSCH resource 0 is associated with SSB 0, CG PUSCH resource 1 is associated with SSB 1, CG PUSCH resource 2 is associated with SSB 2, CG PUSCH resource 3 is associated with SSB 3, CG PUSCH resource 4 is associated with SSB 4, CG PUSCH resource 5 is associated with SSB 0, CG PUSCH resource 6 is associated with SSB 1, and CG PUSCH resource 7 is associated with SSB 2. In this example, the complexity of associating the reference signal with the CG PUSCH resource can be reduced, and there is no need to distinguish between different types of CG PUSCH resources.

[0175] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB as an example, at least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are associated with the reference signal together, for example, as follows: CG PUSCH resources are associated with SSBs in identification order, such as CG PUSCH resource 0 is associated with SSB 0, CG PUSCH resource 1 is associated with SSB 1, CG PUSCH resource 2 is associated with SSB 2, CG PUSCH resource 3 is associated with SSB 3, and CG PUSCH resource 4 is associated with SSB 4. In this example, the complexity of associating the reference signal with the CG PUSCH resource can be reduced, and there is no need to distinguish between different types of CG PUSCH resources.

[0176] For example, taking the uplink data shared channel resource as a CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal as an SSB, the uplink data shared channel resource is not associated with a reference signal that overlaps with it in the time domain. For example, if the CG PUSCH resource overlaps with a reference signal in the time domain, the CG PUSCH resource and the reference signal are not associated. For example, if a CG PUSCH resource on a subband appears in the same OFDM symbol as a reference signal, the CG PUSCH resource can be considered invalid. This can reduce interference with the reference signal.

[0177] In some embodiments, a mapping cycle, an association period, or an association pattern period between an uplink data shared channel resource and a reference signal configured by the uplink configuration information satisfies at least one of the following:

[0178] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are independently determined;

[0179] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are independently determined;

[0180] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are determined together;

[0181] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are determined together;

[0182] Related to the period of duplex configuration.

[0183] Exemplarily, at least two different uplink data sharing channel resources independently determine at least one of the following: a mapping cycle between the uplink data sharing channel resource and the reference signal, an association period between the uplink data sharing channel resource and the reference signal, and an association pattern period between the uplink data sharing channel resource and the reference signal.

[0184] For example, in the case where at least two different uplink data shared channel resources are independently determined, the mapping cycle or association period or association pattern period is the maximum value among all values ​​determined for the uplink data shared channel resources.

[0185] Exemplarily, at least two different types of uplink data sharing channel resources independently determine at least one of the following: a mapping cycle between the uplink data sharing channel resources and the reference signal, an association period between the uplink data sharing channel resources and the reference signal, and an association pattern period between the uplink data sharing channel resources and the reference signal.

[0186] For example, when at least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are independently determined, the mapping cycle or association period or association pattern period is the maximum value among the values ​​determined for all uplink data shared channel resource types.

[0187] Exemplarily, at least two different uplink data sharing channel resources together determine at least one of the following: a mapping cycle between the uplink data sharing channel resource and the reference signal, an association period between the uplink data sharing channel resource and the reference signal, and an association pattern period between the uplink data sharing channel resource and the reference signal.

[0188] For example, in the case where at least two different uplink data shared channel resources are determined together, a mapping cycle or an association period or an association pattern period determines a common value for all uplink data shared channel resources.

[0189] Exemplarily, at least two different types of uplink data sharing channel resources together determine at least one of the following: a mapping cycle between the uplink data sharing channel resources and the reference signal, an association period between the uplink data sharing channel resources and the reference signal, and an association pattern period between the uplink data sharing channel resources and the reference signal.

[0190] For example, when at least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are determined together, a mapping cycle, an association period, or an association pattern period determines a common value for all uplink data shared channel resource types.

[0191] In some embodiments, a mapping cycle between uplink data shared channel resources and reference signals is a time period during which reference signals of all preconfigured indexes can be mapped at least once.

[0192] In some embodiments, the association period between the uplink data shared channel resources and the reference signal is the shortest time during which all preconfigured reference signals with all indexes can be mapped at least once and is an integer multiple of the uplink data shared channel period.

[0193] In some embodiments, an association pattern period between an uplink data shared channel resource and a reference signal is an integer multiple of the association pattern period between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal, and is the time for mapping the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal to form a pattern. Optionally, the time for mapping the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal to form a pattern is less than or does not exceed a preset time.

[0194] Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the duplex configuration based on the configuration of the uplink data sharing channel resources (such as CG PUSCH resources) or the set of uplink data sharing channel resources (the set of CG PUSCH resources). There is no need for separate signaling to perform the duplex configuration. The duplex configuration is more flexible, and the duplex configuration is associated with the uplink data sharing channel resources (such as CG PUSCH resources). The uplink data sharing channel (such as CG PUSCH) can be transmitted in the duplex mode, thereby improving the utilization rate of the uplink data sharing channel resources and reducing the transmission delay of the uplink data sharing channel (such as CG PUSCH).

[0195] In an embodiment of the present application, flexible duplex configuration can be supported in idle state (Idle) / deactivated state (Inactive), and the mapping of reference signals to uplink data shared channel resources (such as CG PUSCH resources) reduces the transmission delay of the uplink data shared channel (such as CG PUSCH). The uplink data shared channel resources (such as CG PUSCH resources) or a set of uplink data shared channel resources (a set of CG PUSCH resources) are dynamically configured based on the uplink configuration information, which can greatly improve resource utilization.

[0196] The duplex configuration determination method provided in the embodiments of the present application may be performed by a duplex configuration determination device, or a processing unit within the duplex configuration determination device that is configured to perform the duplex configuration determination method. The duplex configuration determination device provided in the embodiments of the present application is described by taking the duplex configuration determination device performing the duplex configuration determination method as an example.

[0197] FIG9 shows a schematic block diagram of a device 300 for determining a duplex configuration according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG9 , the device 300 for determining a duplex configuration includes:

[0205] In some embodiments, in each downlink time unit of the at least one downlink time unit, part or all of the bandwidth occupied by at least one uplink data shared channel resource adjacent to the uplink subband is a guard interval.

[0206] In some embodiments, the at least one uplink data shared channel resource satisfies at least one of the following:

[0214] There is reception of a reference signal in the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink sub-band;

[0215] A downlink common channel or a downlink common signal is received in the remaining bandwidth outside the uplink sub-band.

[0216] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information is further used to configure a guard interval on the at least one downlink time unit.

[0217] In some embodiments, the uplink data shared channel resource configured by the uplink configuration information includes at least one of the following types:

[0218] Uplink data shared channel resources existing in the uplink time unit;

[0223] Uplink data not in the uplink subband of the downlink time unit shares channel resources.

[0224] In some embodiments, the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information satisfies at least one of the following:

[0225] Including different types of uplink data sharing channel resources;

[0226] Including uplink data sharing channel resources of the same type;

[0227] mapped to the same reference signal resource;

[0228] Mapped to different reference signal resources.

[0229] In some embodiments, the set of uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information is used for repeated transmission of the uplink data shared channel.

[0230] In some embodiments, the association relationship between the uplink data shared channel resource configured by the uplink configuration information and the reference signal satisfies at least one of the following:

[0231] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are independently associated with the reference signal;

[0234] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are associated with the reference signal;

[0235] The uplink data shared channel resource is not associated with the reference signal that overlaps with it in the time domain.

[0236] In some embodiments, a mapping period, an association period, or an association pattern period between an uplink data shared channel resource and a reference signal configured by the uplink configuration information satisfies at least one of the following:

[0237] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are independently determined;

[0238] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are independently determined;

[0239] At least two different uplink data shared channel resources are determined together;

[0240] At least two different types of uplink data shared channel resources are determined together;

[0241] Related to the period of duplex configuration.

[0242] In some embodiments, the mapping period between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal is a time period during which all preconfigured indexed reference signals can be mapped at least once; or,

[0243] The association period between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal is the shortest time during which all pre-configured indexed reference signals can be mapped at least once and is an integer multiple of the uplink data shared channel period; or,

[0244] The association pattern period between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal is an integer multiple of the association period between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal, and the time for mapping between the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal to form a pattern.

[0245] In some embodiments, the time for mapping the uplink data shared channel resource and the reference signal to form a pattern is less than or does not exceed a preset time.

[0246] In some embodiments, the uplink configuration information is common configuration information, wherein the common configuration information is used to configure uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink subband and uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband, or the uplink configuration information is used to configure a set of uplink data shared channel resources on an uplink subband and a set of uplink data shared channel resources on a non-uplink subband; or,

[0248] In some embodiments, the uplink data shared channel resources configured by the uplink configuration information are semi-static or configured authorized resources.

[0249] In some embodiments, the transceiver unit 310 may be a communication interface or transceiver, or an input / output interface of a communication chip or a system on chip. The processing unit 320 may be embedded in or independent of a processor of the terminal in the form of hardware.

[0250] It should be understood that the device 300 for determining the duplex configuration according to the embodiment of the present application may correspond to the terminal in the method embodiment of the present application, and the various units in the device 300 for determining the duplex configuration are respectively for implementing the corresponding processes of the terminal in the method 200 shown in Figure 6. For the sake of brevity, they will not be repeated here.

[0251] Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the duplex configuration based on the configuration of the uplink data sharing channel resource or the set of uplink data sharing channel resources, without the need for separate signaling to perform the duplex configuration. The duplex configuration is more flexible, and the duplex configuration is associated with the uplink data sharing channel resource.
