[0032] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an uplink transmission processing method, a communication device, and a storage medium.
[0033] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an uplink transmission processing method, wherein the method is performed by a terminal and includes:
[0034] The first uplink transmission is sent on an uplink UL subband of a sub-band full-duplex (SBFD) time unit.
[0035] In the above embodiment, the terminal uses the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission, which can reduce the transmission delay of the first uplink transmission.
[0036] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, the first uplink transmission includes at least one of the following: configuring the uplink transmission corresponding to the authorization CG configuration; and cross-time slot uplink transmission of the transmission block TB.
[0037] The above scheme limits the first uplink transmission to include the uplink transmission of the CG configuration and the cross-time slot uplink transmission of the TB. Since the uplink transmission of the CG configuration involves multiple periodically distributed transmission opportunities or a TB transmission involves multiple continuously distributed time slots, sending the first uplink transmission on the UL subband of the SBFD time unit can reduce the phenomenon of transmission opportunities being ignored due to the configuration of the DL time slot and the F time slot in the time division duplex (TDD) system.
[0038] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, a CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; a CG opportunity is configured on a time slot; or, a CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; a CG opportunity is configured on multiple time slots distributed continuously; or, a CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically, different CG opportunities are configured on different time slots, and multiple CG opportunities are configured on multiple time slots distributed continuously.
[0039] In the above embodiments, several optional implementation methods of the CG configuration are given. These CG configurations are allowed to use the UL subband of the SBFD time unit for transmission, which can significantly improve the timeliness of the first uplink transmission corresponding to the CG configuration.
[0040] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, the uplink transmission corresponding to the CG includes an uplink authorization UL grant transmission of extended reality (XR).
[0041] Based on the above solution, the UL grant for XR also allows the use of the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send uplink data of the XR service, which can reduce the transmission delay of XR.

[0043] In the above embodiment, the SBFD time unit may include a DL time unit configured with a UL subband and an F time unit configured with a UL subband, so that uplink and downlink transmissions can be simultaneously implemented in different subbands of the DL time unit and the F time unit.
[0044] In combination with some embodiments of the first aspect, in some embodiments, sending a first uplink transmission on the uplink UL subband of a sub-band full-duplex SBFD time unit includes at least one of the following: when the transmission timing of the first uplink transmission is within the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, sending the first uplink transmission at the transmission timing; when the transmission timing of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, shifting the transmission timing in the frequency domain to a first position within the UL subband, and sending the first uplink transmission at the first position of the UL subband.
[0045] In the above solution, whether frequency offset is required is determined according to the original location of the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission in the SBFD time unit, so as to send the first uplink transmission on the UL subband of the SBFD time unit as much as possible.

[0154] As shown in Figure 1A, communication system 100 includes a terminal 101 and a network device 102. Network device 102 may include an access network device and / or a core network device. In some embodiments, the terminal may communicate with the core network device via the access network device. In other embodiments, the terminal communicates with the core network device using Non-Access Stratum (NAS) messages. The NAS messages may be transparently transmitted from the access network device to the core network device, or from the core network device to the terminal via the access network device.
[0155] In some embodiments, the terminal 101 includes, for example, a mobile phone, a wearable device, an Internet of Things device, a car with communication function, a smart car, a tablet computer, a computer with wireless transceiver function, a virtual reality (VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (AR) terminal device, a wireless terminal device in industrial control, a wireless terminal device in self-driving, a wireless terminal device in remote medical surgery, a wireless terminal device in a smart grid, a wireless terminal device in transportation safety, a wireless terminal device in a smart city, and at least one of a wireless terminal device in a smart home, but is not limited thereto.
[0156] In some embodiments, the terminal is also referred to as User Equipment (UE).

[0158] In some embodiments, the technical solution of the present disclosure can be applied to the Open RAN architecture. In this case, the interfaces between or within the access network devices involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be transformed into internal interfaces of the Open RAN, and the processes and information interactions between these internal interfaces can be implemented through software or programs.
[0159] In some embodiments, the access network device can be composed of a centralized unit (CU) and a distributed unit (DU), where the CU can also be called a control unit. The CU-DU structure can be used to split the protocol layer of the access network device, with the functions of some protocol layers centrally controlled by the CU, and the functions of the remaining part or all of the protocol layers distributed in the DU, which is centrally controlled by the CU, but is not limited to this.
[0160] In some embodiments, the core network device may be a single device including a first network element, or may be a plurality of devices or a group of devices, each including a first network element. The network element may be virtual or physical. The core network may include, for example, at least one of an Evolved Packet Core (EPC), a 5G Core Network (5GCN), and a Next Generation Core (NGC).
[0161] It can be understood that the communication system described in the embodiment of the present disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of the system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.

Furthermore, a combination of multiple systems (e.g., a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G) may also be employed.
[0164] To enhance UL coverage, reduce uplink latency, and increase system capacity and configuration flexibility, SBFD technology was introduced. SBFD technology allows network devices to transmit and receive simultaneously, and terminals to transmit or receive at a single point in time. Therefore, when configuring resources, an SBFD time unit is introduced in the time domain. Multiple terminals perform uplink transmission and downlink reception, respectively, on non-overlapping subbands of a single carrier in time division duplex (TDD). Figure 1B shows a schematic diagram of a resource configuration. Figure 1B shows five time slots, which are four DL time slots and one UL time slot. DL time slots are denoted by D. UL time slots are denoted by U. UL subbands are provided on the DL time slots, so that downlink transmission can be performed on the DL subband of the DL time slot, and UL transmission can be performed on the UL subband of the DL time slot. Because the DL time slot has a UL subband, there are three SBFD time slots among the five DL time slots shown in Figure 1B.
[0165] The CG resources corresponding to the CG configuration may be periodic resources. In a time division duplex (TDD) system, if the time domain position of a CG resource corresponds to a downlink (DL) time slot, the CG resource will be ignored. For example, a CG resource spans multiple time slots, and the multiple time slots corresponding to the CG resource are ignored because they are all configured as uplink (UL) time slots. As shown in Figure 1C, the period corresponding to the CG resource can be called a CG period. The CG opportunity configured on the DL time slot will be ignored as shown in Figure 1C. In this way, the uplink transmission of the CG opportunity configured on the DL time slot will be delayed, resulting in a large delay problem. In view of this, as shown in Figure 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an uplink transmission processing method, which is executed by a communication system. The method may include:
[0166] S2101: The network device sends first information.
[0167] In some embodiments, the network device may be an access network device.
[0168] In some embodiments, the network device sends first information to the terminal.
[0169] In some embodiments, the network device sends the first information by multicast, broadcast, or unicast.
[0170] In some embodiments, the first information is used at least to determine whether to send the first uplink transmission on a UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0171] In some embodiments, the network device sending the first information may be an optional step. For example, if the protocol stipulates that the first uplink transmission can be transmitted using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the network device may not send the first information.
[0172] In some embodiments, the SBFD time unit may include: SBFD time slot, SBFD mini-time slot, SBFD symbol, etc.
[0173] Exemplarily, the sub-band full-duplex (SBFD) time unit includes at least one of the following:
[0174] A downlink (DL) time unit configured with a UL subband;
[0175] A flexible F time unit is configured with the UL subband.
[0176] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:
[0177] A first indication, used to indicate whether a first uplink transmission can be sent using a UL subband of the SBFD time unit;
[0178] The second indication is used to indicate a frequency domain frequency shift. The frequency domain shift can be used to shift a transmission opportunity in the frequency domain when the terminal uses the SBFD time unit UL subband to send a first uplink transmission.
[0179] In some embodiments, the first indication may be optional content. For example, if the first information includes the second indication, it can be considered that the network device implicitly indicates that it agrees to the terminal to use the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission, and allows the frequency domain position of the transmission opportunity to be migrated to the UL subband of the SBFD time unit when the transmission opportunity is outside the UL subband.
[0180] In some embodiments, when the first indication is used to indicate that the UL subband of the SBFD time unit is not allowed to be used for sending the first uplink transmission, the second indication carried by the first information may be ignored, that is, the second indication may be considered invalid. In this case, it can also be understood that the second indication is also optional.
[0181] In some embodiments, the first uplink transmission includes at least one of the following:
[0182] Configure the uplink transmission corresponding to the authorized CG configuration;
[0183] Transmission Block (TB) processing over multiple slots (TBoMS) is an uplink transmission method that is used to transmit data in a transmission block (TBoMS).
[0184] In some embodiments, the CG configuration may have type 1 and type 2. For type 1 CG configuration, the network device configures the CG through RRC signaling without the need for special activation signaling, and the terminal can directly perform uplink transmission on the CG resources corresponding to the CG configuration. For type 2 CG configuration, the network device configures the CG through RRC signaling and activates the CG resources through DCI. The terminal will perform uplink transmission on the activated CG resources. Furthermore, for type 2 CG configuration, the terminal may also send a MAC CE to the network device based on the reception status of the DCI and the content of the received DCI. The MAC CE is used by the terminal to confirm the activated CG resources to the network device. The reception status of the DCI may include: receiving the DCI and / or not receiving the DCI.
[0185] A CG resource may include one or more CG opportunities. If a CG resource includes multiple CG opportunities, these multiple CG resources are usually distributed periodically in the time domain.
[0186] In some embodiments, a CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; a CG opportunity is configured on a time slot.
[0187] A CG configuration can be associated with multiple CG opportunities, which are periodically distributed in the time domain. Different CG opportunities can be located in different time slots. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, one CG opportunity is located in one time slot, and multiple CG opportunities are located in different time slots.
[0188] In some embodiments, a CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; a CG opportunity is configured on multiple time slots distributed continuously.
[0189] A CG configuration is associated with one or more CG opportunities, each of which can span time slots. For example, a CG opportunity can be located in multiple consecutive time slots. The transmission corresponding to this CG configuration can be understood as a CG repeated transmission. Figures 7A and 7B show a CG opportunity located in multiple consecutive time slots.
[0190] In some embodiments, a CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically, with different CG opportunities configured in different time slots, and multiple CG opportunities configured in multiple consecutive time slots. A CG configuration shown in Figures 8A to 8C includes one or more CG opportunities, and multiple CG opportunities are distributed in multiple consecutive time slots.
[0191] In some embodiments, the uplink transmission corresponding to the CG configuration includes an uplink grant (UL grant) transmission of XR.
[0192] In some embodiments, the first indication may correspond to an indication bit, which indicates to the terminal whether the first uplink transmission of the corresponding layer can use the UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0193] In some embodiments, the first indication corresponds to a bitmap.
[0194] In some embodiments, one bit in the bitmap is associated with at least one uplink transmission configuration.
[0195] In some embodiments, the uplink transmission configuration includes a CG configuration; one bit in the bitmap is associated with an index of a CG configuration.
[0196] In some embodiments, the index of the CG configuration includes:
[0197] A first index, a first index acts on a bandwidth part BWP;
[0198] Second index: a second index acts on a media access control MAC entity.
[0199] For example, for CG configuration, the first index may include but is not limited to a configured CrantConfigIndex, and the second index may include but is not limited to a configured CrantConfigIndexMAC.
[0200] A CG configuration can have a first index and a second index at the same time. The first index is the index of the CG configuration for the BWP. Different CG configurations on a BWP have different first indexes.
[0201] The second index is an index of the CG configuration of the MAC entity. Different CG configurations of multiple BWPs and / or multiple cells processed by one MAC entity have different second indexes.
[0202] In short, the first index and the second index are both CG configuration indexes, but they are indexes with different scopes of application.
[0203] In some embodiments, the bits of the bitmap correspond from high to low to the index of the CG configuration from small to large; or, the bits of the bitmap correspond from high to low to the index of the CG configuration from large to small.
[0204] In summary, the use of a bitmap for indication has the characteristics of being easy to implement and having low bit overhead.
[0205] In some embodiments, the uplink transmission configuration includes at least one of the following: a PUCCH transmission configuration where the TB spans time slots; or a PUSCH transmission configuration where the TB spans time slots.
[0206] In one embodiment, one bit in the bitmap is associated with each uplink transmission configuration of a BWP. In this case, one bitmap can be associated with multiple BWPs, and one BWP corresponds to one bit in the bitmap. In this case, one bit in the bitmap will indicate whether all uplink transmission configurations on a BWP can be transmitted using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit. For example, in this case, one bit in the bitmap will indicate whether the PUCCH transmission across time slots of all TBs on a certain BWP can be transmitted using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, or one bit in the bitmap will indicate whether the PUSCH transmission across time slots of all TBs on a certain BWP can be transmitted using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit. In this case, the length of the bitmap can be equal to the number of associated BWPs.
[0207] In some embodiments, one bit in the bitmap is associated with each uplink transmission configuration of a serving cell.
[0208] In this case, a serving cell may be configured with one or more BWPs, or the system bandwidth of a serving cell may not be divided into BWPs. If BWP division is not performed, the system bandwidth is not divided into multiple BWPs. One bit in the bitmap indicates each uplink transmission configuration of the corresponding serving cell. For example, a terminal that supports dual connectivity or carrier aggregation may have multiple serving cells. In this case, the length of the bitmap may be equal to the number of associated cells. In this case, one bit in the bitmap indicates whether the PUCCH transmission across time slots of all TBs on a certain serving cell can be sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, or one bit in the bitmap indicates whether the PUSCH transmission across time slots of all TBs on a certain serving cell can be sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0209] In some embodiments, one bit in the bitmap is associated with each uplink transmission configuration of a cell group. Some terminals have multiple cell groups, for example, a primary cell group and at least one secondary cell group. In this case, one bit in the bitmap will indicate whether the PUCCH transmission across time slots of all TBs on a certain cell group can be sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, or one bit in the bitmap will indicate whether the PUSCH transmission across time slots of all TBs on a certain cell group can be sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit. In this case, the length of the bitmap may be equal to the number of associated cell groups.
[0210] In some embodiments, one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration. In this case, the length of the bitmap may be equal to the number of associated uplink transmission configurations.
[0211] It is worth noting that the length of the bitmap here can be understood as the number of bits contained in the bitmap.
[0212] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bit of the nth uplink transmission configuration associated with the bitmap is related to the BWP identifier of the BWP where the nth uplink transmission configuration is located and the index of the nth uplink transmission configuration;
[0213] In the case where one bit in the bit map is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bit map is associated with multiple cells, the bit of the nth uplink transmission configuration associated with the bit map is related to the cell identifier of the cell where the nth uplink transmission configuration is located, the BWP identifier of the BWP where the nth uplink transmission configuration is located, and the index of the nth uplink transmission configuration.
[0214] For example, the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the identifiers of the BWP from large to small and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same BWP from large to small; or,
[0215] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the BWP identifiers from large to small and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the uplink transmission configuration indexes of the same BWP from small to large; or,
[0216] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the identifiers of the BWPs from small to large and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same BWP from small to large; or,
[0217] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the identifiers of the BWPs from small to large and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same BWP from large to small; or,
[0218] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bits in the bitmap from low to high correspond to the BWP identifiers from small to large and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the uplink transmission configuration indexes of the same BWP from large to small; or,
[0219] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bits in the bitmap from low to high correspond to the BWP identifiers from small to large and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same BWP from small to large; or,
[0220] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bits in the bitmap from low to high correspond to the BWP identifiers from large to small and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same BWP from large to small; or,
[0221] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple BWPs, the bitmap bits from low to high correspond to the BWP identifiers from large to small and the bitmap bits from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same BWP from small to large.
[0222] The bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the cell identifiers of the serving cells from large to small and the bits in the bitmap from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same serving cell from large to small; or,
[0223] In the case where one bit in the bitmap is associated with one uplink transmission configuration and the bitmap is associated with multiple serving cells, the bitmap bits from high to low correspond to the cell identifiers of the serving cells from large to small and the bitmap bits from high to low correspond to the indexes of the uplink transmission configurations of the same serving cell from small to large; or,

[0253] In some embodiments, when the first list is associated with CG configurations of multiple BWPs, the frequency offset of the mth CG configuration associated with the first list is related to the index of the mth CG configuration and the BWP identifier of the BWP where the mth CG configuration is located.
[0254] For example, the frequency offsets in the first list are first mapped to the BWP identifier from largest to smallest and then to the index of the CG configuration of the same BWP from largest to smallest or from smallest to largest.

Alternatively, exemplarily, the frequency offsets in the first list correspond, from front to back, first to the cell identifier from small to large, then to the BWP identifier from large to small, and finally to the index of the CG configuration of the same BWP from large to small or from small to large.

[0269] In some embodiments, the first information is carried in downlink control signaling DCI.
[0270] In some embodiments, the DCI may be the DCI for activating the first uplink transmission. In other embodiments, the DCI may be different from the DCI for activating the first uplink transmission.

[0284] S2102: The terminal sends a first uplink transmission on the UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0285] In some embodiments, the terminal sends a first uplink transmission to the network device on a UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0286] In some embodiments, the terminal sends a first uplink transmission to the network device on a UL subband of a SBFD time slot.
[0287] In some embodiments, the terminal sends a first uplink transmission to the network device on a UL subband of a SBFD symbol.
[0288] In some embodiments, when the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is within the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the first uplink transmission is sent at the transmission opportunity.
[0289] In some embodiments, when the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the transmission opportunity is shifted to a first position in the UL subband in the frequency domain, and the first uplink transmission is sent at the first position of the UL subband.
[0290] In some embodiments, without the need for protocol agreement or network-side instructions, if the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission falls on the SBFD time unit, the transmission opportunity frequency is automatically shifted to the UL subband to send the first uplink transmission when it is located in the DL subband or flexible subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0291] In some embodiments, if the protocol stipulates that the first uplink transmission is allowed to be sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the first uplink transmission is sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0292] In some embodiments, when the first indication is used to indicate that the use of the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission is permitted, the first uplink transmission is sent using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0293] In some embodiments, when the first indication is used to indicate that the UL subband of the SBFD time unit is not allowed to be used to send the first uplink transmission, the UL subband of the SBFD time unit is not used to send the first uplink transmission.
[0294] In some embodiments, on a BWP that is allowed to use a UL subband of a SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission, the first uplink transmission is sent using a UL subband of the SBFD time unit of the BWP.
[0295] In some embodiments, in a serving cell where it is permitted to use a UL subband of a SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission, the first uplink transmission is sent using a UL subband of the SBFD time unit of the serving cell.
[0296] In some embodiments, in a cell group that is allowed to use a UL subband of a SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission, the first uplink transmission is sent using a UL subband of the SBFD time unit of the cell group.
[0297] In some embodiments, when the second indication sent by the network device is received and the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is located within the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the first uplink transmission is sent at the transmission opportunity.
[0298] In some embodiments, when the first indication is not received and the second indication sent by the network device is received, and the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is within the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the first uplink transmission is sent at the transmission opportunity.
[0299] In some embodiments, when a second indication is received from a network device and the transmission timing of a first uplink transmission is outside the UL sub-band of the SBFD time unit, if the position obtained after performing a transmission timing offset in the frequency domain based on the frequency offset corresponding to the second indication is within the UL sub-band, the first uplink transmission is sent at the corresponding position of the UL sub-band.
[0300] In some embodiments, when a second indication sent by a network device is received and the transmission timing of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL sub-band of the SBFD time unit, the position obtained after the transmission timing offset in the frequency domain based on the frequency offset corresponding to the second indication is outside the UL sub-band, then the first uplink transmission is not sent at the corresponding position of the UL sub-band.
[0301] In some embodiments, when a second indication sent by a network device is received and the transmission timing of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL sub-band of the SBFD time unit, the position obtained after the transmission timing offset in the frequency domain based on the frequency offset corresponding to the second indication is outside the UL sub-band, and the corresponding transmission timing is ignored.
[0302] In some embodiments, when the first indication is received and the second indication is not received, if the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is within the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the first uplink transmission is sent on the transmission opportunity.
[0303] In some embodiments, when the first indication is received but the second indication is not received, if the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the first uplink transmission is not sent on the transmission opportunity, that is, the transmission opportunity is ignored.
[0304] In some embodiments, when the first indication is received and the second indication is not received, if the transmission timing of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the frequency domain position of the transmission time is directly offset to the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission.
[0305] In some embodiments, the time domain position of the transmission opportunity is maintained unchanged when the frequency domain position of the transmission opportunity is shifted.
[0306] Figure 3 shows two CG opportunities separated by a CG period. If a CG opportunity is located in the UL subband of a DL timeslot, the first uplink transmission configured for the CG opportunity is sent using the UL subband of the DL timeslot. Figure 3 shows that the bandwidth occupied by the DL timeslot is greater than the bandwidth of the subband of the DL timeslot. For the first uplink transmission on a CG configuration or CG resource, the CG opportunity is an example of the aforementioned transmission opportunity.
[0307] Figure 4 shows that there is a CG period between two CG opportunities. If a CG opportunity is located on the DL subband of the DL time slot, the CG opportunity is frequency-shifted to the UL subband of the DL time slot while keeping the time domain position of the CG opportunity unchanged, and the first uplink transmission configured on the CG opportunity is sent using the UL subband of the DL time slot.
[0308] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG7A , a CG opportunity can span multiple time slots. FIG7A uses different padding to show that there are two CG opportunities, one is that one CG opportunity occupies 4 time slots, and the other is that one CG opportunity occupies 2 time slots. When part of the resources of the CG opportunity are configured on the DL time slot and / or the F time slot, the corresponding part of the time domain position of the CG opportunity is transferred to the UL sub-band of the DL time slot and / or the F time slot. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG7A , a CG opportunity can span multiple time slots. FIG7A uses different padding to show that there are two CG opportunities, and both CG opportunities occupy three time slots at different frequency domain positions, one of which CG resources occupies the sub-band just within the UL sub-band of the DL time slot and the F time slot, while the other CG opportunity occupies the DL sub-band in the DL time slot. In order to achieve uplink transmission, part of the time domain position of the CG opportunity on the DL time slot will be frequency-shifted to the UL sub-band of the DL time slot. In some embodiments, multiple CG opportunities can be configured on multiple consecutively distributed time slots for XR services, etc. As shown in FIG8A , CG opportunity 1, CG opportunity 2, and CG opportunity 3 are respectively configured on three consecutive time slots. If the UL subband of the SBFD time unit is not allowed to be used for transmission, CG opportunity 3 needs to be ignored. If the UL subband of the SBFD time unit is allowed to be used for transmission, the transmission configured with CG opportunity 3 can be performed on the UL subband of the DL time slot as shown in FIG8B . In some embodiments, as shown in FIG8A , CG opportunity 1, CG opportunity 2, and CG opportunity 3 are respectively configured on three consecutive time slots, but CG opportunity 3 is located on the DL subband of the DL time slot. The CG opportunity 3 frequency offset value is used to perform the relevant uplink transmission on the UL subband of the DL time slot.
[0309] As shown in FIG5 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an uplink transmission processing method, which is executed by a terminal. The method may include:
[0310] S3101: Receive first information.
[0311] In some embodiments, the first information is used at least to determine whether to send the first uplink transmission on a UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0312] In some embodiments, the first uplink transmission includes at least one of the following:
[0313] Configure the uplink transmission corresponding to the authorized CG configuration;
[0314] Cross-time slot uplink transmission of transport blocks TB.
[0315] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:
[0316] A first indication, used to indicate whether a first uplink transmission can be sent using a UL subband of the SBFD time unit;
[0317] The second indication is used to indicate the frequency shift amount in the frequency domain.
[0318] In some embodiments, one CG configuration corresponds to one CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; one CG opportunity is configured on one time slot; or,
[0319] A CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; a CG opportunity is allocated to multiple time slots distributed continuously; or,
[0320] A CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically, different CG opportunities are configured on different time slots, and multiple CG opportunities are configured on multiple time slots distributed continuously.
[0321] In some embodiments, the uplink transmission corresponding to the CG includes the uplink grant ULgrant transmission of extended reality XR.
[0322] In some embodiments, the sub-band full-duplex (SBFD) time unit includes at least one of the following:
[0323] A downlink (DL) time unit configured with a UL subband;
[0324] A flexible F time unit is configured with the UL subband.
[0325] It is worth noting that: the relevant description of the first information here can refer to S2101 of the corresponding embodiment of Figure 2.
[0326] S3102: Send a first uplink transmission using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0327] It is worth noting that: the optional step of S3102 can refer to S2102 of the corresponding embodiment of Figure 2.
[0328] It is worth noting that S3101 may be an optional step. For example, according to the protocol agreement, when the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is located in the DL time unit or the F time unit, and the DL time unit or the F time unit belongs to the SBFD time unit, the terminal may use the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission. Alternatively, the terminal may default to using the UL subband of the SBFD time unit to send the first uplink transmission when the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is located in the DL time unit or the F time unit, and the DL time unit or the F time unit belongs to the SBFD time unit.
[0329] As shown in FIG6 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an uplink transmission processing method, which is executed by a network device. The method may include:
[0330] S4101: Send the first message.
[0331] In some embodiments, the network device sends first information to the terminal.
[0332] In some embodiments, the first information is used at least to determine whether to send the first uplink transmission on a UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0333] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one of the following:
[0334] A first indication, used to indicate whether a first uplink transmission can be sent using a UL subband of the SBFD time unit;
[0335] The second indication is used to indicate the frequency shift amount in the frequency domain.
[0336] It is worth noting that the optional embodiments of S4101 can all refer to S2101 of the corresponding embodiment in Figure 2.
[0337] S4102: Receive a first uplink transmission on a UL subband of an SBFD time unit.
[0338] It is worth noting that the first uplink transmission here can refer to the relevant description of the embodiment corresponding to FIG2 .
[0339] The first uplink transmission includes at least one of the following:
[0340] Configure the uplink transmission corresponding to the authorized CG configuration;
[0341] Cross-time slot uplink transmission of transport blocks TB.
[0342] In some embodiments, one CG configuration corresponds to one CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; one CG opportunity is configured on one time slot; or,
[0343] A CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically; a CG opportunity is allocated to multiple time slots distributed continuously; or,
[0344] A CG configuration corresponds to a CG opportunity or multiple CG opportunities distributed periodically, different CG opportunities are configured on different time slots, and multiple opportunities are configured on multiple continuously distributed time slots.
[0345] In some embodiments, the uplink transmission corresponding to the CG includes the uplink grant ULgrant transmission of extended reality XR.
[0346] In some embodiments, the sub-band full-duplex (SBFD) time unit includes at least one of the following:
[0347] A downlink (DL) time unit configured with a UL subband;
[0348] A flexible F time unit is configured with the UL subband.
[0349] In some embodiments, receiving the first uplink transmission on an uplink UL subband of a sub-band full-duplex (SBFD) time unit includes at least one of the following:
[0350] receiving the first uplink transmission at the transmission opportunity when the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is within the UL subband of the SBFD time unit;
[0351] When the transmission opportunity of the first uplink transmission is outside the UL subband of the SBFD time unit, the transmission opportunity is shifted to a first position in the UL subband in the frequency domain, and the first uplink transmission is received at the first position of the UL subband.
[0352] In some embodiments, before sending the first uplink transmission, the method further includes: sending first information to the terminal; the first information is at least used to determine whether to send the first uplink transmission on a UL subband of the SBFD time unit.
[0353] The disclosed embodiment supports the use of SBFD configuration to configure CG resources and supports CG repetition, so that the CG transmission data delay is reduced as much as possible and low-latency services are better supported.
[0354] For CG configurations of either type 1 or type 2, if a CG resource location is a DL slot or a flexible slot, and if the DL slot or flexible slot exists for a UL subband, then the DL slot or F slot is an SBFD time unit, and the terminal may consider the current CG resource location valid.
[0355] Furthermore, if the time slot where the current CG resource position is located is an SBFD time unit, but the frequency domain position where the CG resource position is located is not within the UL subband range of SBFD, the network side configures a frequency offset so that the CG resource position falls within the SBFD in the frequency domain and becomes a valid CG resource.
[0356] Furthermore, based on the algorithm pre-defined by the protocol or the terminal's own calculation, the new position of the CG resource after the frequency domain offset is determined.
[0357] Example 1:
[0358] A first indication is configured through RRC dedicated signaling. The first indication is used to indicate whether the corresponding CG configuration can use the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as a CG occasion.
[0359] A second indication is configured through RRC signaling. The second indication is used to indicate the frequency domain offset of the CG occasion (occasion) corresponding to the CG configuration in the SBFD time slot relative to the frequency domain position of the CG.
[0360] The first indication and the second indication are configured in the ConfiguredGrantConfig IE.
[0361] Example 2:
[0362] A bitmap (bitmap) is configured in the RRC dedicated signaling. Each bit in the bitmap corresponds one-to-one to the index ConfiguredGrantConfigIndexMAC associated with a CG configuration. For example, the bitmap corresponds one-to-one to ConfiguredGrantConfigIndexMAC in order from low bit to high bit. The value of each bit in the bitmap (for example, a value of 1) is used to indicate whether the corresponding CG configuration can use the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the location of the CG opportunity. The bitmap can be configured in the cell group configuration (CellGroupConfig) IE or the media access control cell group configuration (mac-CellGroupConfig) IE.
[0363] Exemplarily, the mac-CellGroupConfig IE may be a sub-IE of the cell group configuration IE.
[0364] Example 3:
[0365] A bitmap is configured in the RRC dedicated signaling. Each bit in the bitmap corresponds one-to-one to the index ConfiguredGrantConfigIndex associated with a CG configuration. For example, the bitmap corresponds one-to-one to the ConfiguredGrantConfigIndex from low bits to high bits in ascending order. The value of each bit in the bitmap (for example, a value of 1) is used to indicate whether the corresponding CG configuration can use the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the location of the CG opportunity. The bitmap can be configured in BWP-UplinkDedicated.
[0366] Example 4:
[0367] Through MAC CE or DCI, it is used to dynamically indicate whether the corresponding CG configuration can use the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the location of the CG opportunity. The MAC CE contains a bitmap, a BWP identity (Identity, ID) and / or a serving cell index (ServCellIndex). The serving cell index is a type of cell index.
[0368] Each bit in the bitmap corresponds one-to-one to the index (ConfiguredGrantConfigIndex) / (ConfiguredGrantConfigIndexMAC) associated with a CG configuration. For example, the bitmap corresponds one-to-one to ConfiguredGrantConfigIndex or ConfiguredGrantConfigIndexMAC in ascending order from low-order bits to high-order bits. The value of each bit in the bitmap (for example, a value of 1) is used to indicate whether the corresponding CG configuration can use the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the location of the CG opportunity.
[0369] Example 5:
[0370] A frequency offset list is configured through RRC dedicated signaling. The frequency offset list is configured in the bandwidth part uplink dedicated (BWP-UplinkDedicated) IE. Each frequency offset value in the frequency offset list corresponds to the configured grant configuration index (ConfiguredGrantConfigIndex) of the CG configured in the associated BWP in ascending order, and is used to indicate the frequency domain offset of the CG timing of the corresponding CG configuration in the SBFD time slot relative to the frequency domain position of the CG.
[0371] Example 6:
[0372] A frequency offset list is configured through RRC dedicated signaling. The frequency offset list is configured in the cell group configuration (CellGroupConfig) IE or the media access control cell group configuration (mac-CellGroupConfig) IE. Each frequency offset value in the list corresponds to the configured CG's ConfiguredGrantConfigIndexMAC in ascending order, and is used to indicate the frequency domain offset of the CG timing of the corresponding CG configuration in the SBFD time slot relative to the frequency domain position of the CG.
[0373] If a CG opportunity repeatedly occupies n time slots or m symbols, the DL time slot with SBFD is also an available time slot.
[0374] If the frequency domain position required for a CG opportunity repetition does not fall within the UL sub-band of SBFD, the network side can configure a frequency offset so that the available time slot for the CG opportunity repetition can be within the UL sub-band of SBFD.
[0375] Here, regarding the first indication, the second indication, the frequency offset list and the bit map, please refer to the aforementioned embodiments 1 to 6, which will not be repeated here.
[0376] If a transmission block (TB) processing over multiple slots (TBoMS) occupies n time slots, then the DL time slot where SBFD exists is also an available time slot. If the frequency domain location required by TBoMS does not fall within the UL subband corresponding to SBFD technology, the network side can configure a frequency offset so that the available time slot of TBoMS can be the time slot where the UL subband of SBFD is located.
[0377] Example 7:
[0378] Specifically, a first indication is configured through RRC dedicated signaling, where the first indication is used to indicate whether the PUSCH or PUCCH can use the UL subband in the SBFD time slot as a valid UL time slot for the PUCCH DMRS bundle or the PUSCH DMRS bundling.
[0379] A second indication is configured through RRC signaling, where the second indication is used to instruct the PUSCH or PUCCH to use UL resources in the SBFD time slot as a frequency offset of a valid UL time slot of the PUCCH DMRS bundle or the PUSCH DMRS bundling.
[0380] The frequency offset is the frequency offset relative to the PUSCH or PUCCH position of the previous UL slot.
[0381] The first indication and the second indication are configured in the PUSCH-Config IE or the DMRS-BundlingPUSCH-Config IE or the DMRS-BundlingPUCCH-Config.
[0382] Example 8:
[0383] A bitmap is configured in RRC dedicated signaling, with each bit in the bitmap associated with a UL BWP. For example, the bitmap corresponds to the UL BWP ID in ascending order, from low-order bits to high-order bits. The value of each bit in the bitmap (e.g., 1) indicates whether the PUSCH or PUCCH can use the UL resources in the SBFD timeslot.
[0384] The bitmap can be configured in the serving cell configuration (ServingCellConfig) IE.
[0385] Example 9:
[0386] A bitmap is configured in RRC dedicated signaling, with each bit in the bitmap associated with a UL BWP. For example, the bitmap corresponds to the UL BWP ID in ascending order, starting from the lowest bit and ending with the serving cell index (ServCellIndex). The value of each bit in the bitmap (e.g., 1) indicates whether the PUSCH or PUCCH can use the UL resources in the SBFD timeslot.
[0387] The bitmap can be configured in the cell group configuration (CellGroupConfig) IE.
[0388] Example 10:
[0389] A frequency offset list is configured in RRC dedicated signaling, and each frequency offset in the frequency offset list is associated with a UL BWP instance.
[0390] Each frequency offset value in the list corresponds to the UL BWPID in ascending order, and is used to indicate the frequency offset of the PUSCH or PUCCH using the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the effective UL slot of the PUCCH DMRS bundling or PUCCH DMRS bundling. For example, the bitmap corresponds to the UL BWP ID in ascending order from the low bit to the high bit. The value of each bit in the bitmap (for example, a value of 1) is used to indicate that the PUSCH or PUCCH uses the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the frequency offset of the effective UL slot of the PUCCH DMRS bundling or PUCCH DMRS bundling. The frequency offset is the frequency interval relative to the PUSCH or PUCCH position of the previous UL time slot.
[0391] The frequency offset list can be configured in the ServingCellConfig IE.
[0392] Example 11:
[0393] A frequency offset list is configured in RRC dedicated signaling, and each frequency offset in the frequency offset list is associated with a UL BWP instance.
[0394] Each frequency offset value in the list corresponds to the UL BWPID in ascending order, and is used to indicate the frequency offset when the PUSCH or PUCCH uses the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the PUCCH DMRS bundling or the effective UL time slot of the PUCCH DMRS bundling. For example, the bitmap corresponds to the ServCellIndex first and the UL BWP ID in ascending order from low to high. The value of each bit in the bitmap (for example, a value of 1) is used to indicate the frequency offset when the PUSCH or PUCCH uses the UL resources in the SBFD time slot as the PUCCH DMRS bundling or the effective UL slot of the PUCCH DMRS bundling. The frequency offset is the frequency offset relative to the PUSCH or PUCCH position in the previous UL slot.
[0395] In some embodiments, the frequency offset list may be configured in the cell group (CellGroupConfig) IE.
[0396] When the XR service is transmitted, the data packet size of the XR service changes. In order to meet the demand for service data transmission delay, a CG resource is configured. This CG resource can be as shown in Figures 8A to 8C. One CG configuration corresponds to multiple CG opportunities and multiple CG opportunities are continuously distributed on multiple adjacent time slots. The terminal can send XR service data based on the data packet of the XR service to be sent, occupying part or all of the CG opportunities. A CG opportunity can correspond to a UL authorization (grant).
[0397] If the CG opportunity is located in a DL time slot, in order to reduce transmission delay, the UL subband of the SBFD time slot can be used as the UL grant to send data of the XR service.
[0398] If a UL grant in the CG appears in an SBFD time slot but does not fall within the UL subband of the SBFD, the network side can configure a frequency offset so that the UL grant uses the UL resources of the SBFD.
[0399] Similarly, in NR-U scenarios, where multiple consecutive time slots are allocated CG resources, the same solution can be used, using SBFD resources as valid UL time slots. Frequency shifting or non-shifting can be performed depending on whether the subband configured for the transmission opportunity lies within the UL subband of the SBFD time slot.
