[0129] 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 (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.
[0130] In some embodiments, the core network device may be a single device, or may be multiple devices or a group of devices. The core network may include at least one of an Evolved Packet Core (EPC), a 5G Core Network (5GCN), and a Next Generation Core (NGC).
[0131] 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 proposed in 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 proposed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar technical problems.
[0132] The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to the communication system 100 shown in FIG1 , or a portion thereof, but are not limited thereto. The entities shown in FIG1 are examples. The communication system may include all or part of the entities shown in FIG1 , or may include other entities outside of FIG1 . The number and form of the entities are arbitrary, and the entities may be physical or virtual. The connection relationship between the entities is an example. The entities may be connected or disconnected, and the connection may be in any manner, including direct or indirect, wired or wireless.
[0133] The embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G New Radio (NR), 6th generation mobile communication system (6G), Future Radio Access (FRA), New Radio Access Technology (RAT), New Radio (NR), New Radio Access (NX), Future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM (registered trademark)), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX (registered trademark)), IEEE 802.20, Ultra-WideBand (UWB), Bluetooth (registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems based on and extending these methods. Furthermore, multiple systems may be combined (for example, a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).
[0134] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned communication system may be an A-IoT system, the terminal device 101 may be an A-IoT terminal device, and the network device 102 may be an A-IoT network device.
[0135] In some embodiments, the A-IoT system utilizes a large number of A-IoT terminal devices (A-IoT UE, A-IoT device, A-IoT Tag), enabling the inventory and monitoring of large quantities of items. A-IoT terminal devices can be customized to meet specific needs in different application scenarios, resulting in widespread application and high practicality. Compared to NB-IoT terminal devices, A-IoT terminal devices have a simpler structure, lower hardware and maintenance costs, and can be equipped with or without a power supply.
[0136] In some embodiments, A-IoT terminal devices can be divided into passive devices and active devices. Among them, type A devices (device type A) and type B devices (device type B) are passive devices, and type C devices (device type C) are active devices. Type A devices do not support energy storage and work based on backscatter. They have the lowest complexity and very low power consumption. Although type A devices do not support energy storage, they still need to receive wireless signals to activate the internal receiving and processing module. Type B devices support energy storage and work based on backscatter. Their complexity and power consumption are higher than type A devices, but still maintain a relatively low level. Type B devices can store energy, but generally have limited energy storage capabilities. Type C devices support energy storage and work based on active transmission, that is, type C devices amplify and transmit information through power amplifiers.
[0137] In some embodiments, devices using backscattering require a continuous wave (CW) energy source (CW node) to provide electromagnetic waves for reflection while transmitting data. CW waves typically have a constant amplitude. The CW node can be a separate node or a base station or intermediate node (e.g., a UE) communicating with the device.
[0138] In some embodiments, the frequency of the electromagnetic wave reflected by the device may be exactly the same as the CW frequency, or there may be some offset. The offset size is related to the hardware characteristics of the device. The offset may be a fixed value. If the device hardware supports it, the offset may also support multiple fixed values or a dynamically adjustable value.
[0139] In some embodiments, both active and passive devices are considered during the A-IoT communication system design process. In actual deployment, active and passive devices can potentially be deployed in the same area or in different areas. When different types of devices are deployed independently, different communication methods can be designed based on the characteristics of the two devices. Conversely, when different types of devices are deployed together, a design that is compatible with both devices needs to be considered. In the latter case, how network devices can inventory different types of devices or initiate other operations becomes a pressing issue.
[0140] FIG2A is an interactive schematic diagram of an information transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method can be executed by the above-mentioned communication system. As shown in FIG2A , the method may include:
[0141] Step S2101: The network device sends first information to the terminal device.

[0144] In some embodiments, an A-IoT network device may send an excitation signal to at least one A-IoT terminal device.

[0146] In some embodiments, the first resource includes a time domain or frequency domain resource determined by a first modulation.
[0147] In some embodiments, the second resource includes a time domain or frequency domain resource carrying the first sequence.
[0148] In some embodiments, the name of the first resource is not limited, and may be, for example, "first data transmission resource," "first signal transmission resource," etc. The name of the second resource is also not limited, and may be, for example, "second data transmission resource," "second signal transmission resource," etc.

[0151] In some embodiments, the terminal device may report a first capability to the network device, and the network device may determine the first modulation based on the first capability. The first capability may be used to indicate the modulation mode indicated by the terminal device. For example, if the first capability indicates that the terminal device supports OOK modulation, the first modulation may be OOK modulation; if the first capability indicates that the terminal device supports PIE modulation, the first modulation may be PIE modulation.
[0152] In some embodiments, the network device may determine the first modulation based on the type of the first information. For example, if the first information is used to trigger a first service, the first modulation may be OOK modulation; if the first information is used to trigger a second service, the first modulation may be PIE modulation.

[0153] In some embodiments, the first information may be carried by a time domain or frequency domain resource determined by the first modulation, and the first information may be mapped to a first symbol, which may be used to represent the time domain or frequency domain resource determined by the first modulation. For example, if the first modulation is OOK modulation, the first information may be mapped to an OOK symbol; if the first modulation is PIE modulation, the first information may be mapped to a PIE symbol.
[0154] In some embodiments, the first information may be carried by a time domain or frequency domain resource that carries the first sequence, that is, the first information may be mapped to the first sequence. For example, if the first modulation is OOK modulation, the first sequence may be a time domain or frequency domain sequence on the OOK symbol; if the first modulation is PIE modulation, the first sequence may be a time domain or frequency domain sequence on the PIE symbol.
[0155] In some embodiments, after receiving the first information, the terminal device may perform energy determination or sequence detection. For example, an active terminal device may perform sequence detection, and a passive terminal device may perform energy determination.
[0156] In some embodiments, the first sequence may be an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) sequence.
[0157] In some embodiments, the name of the first information is not limited, for example, it can be "data transmission information", "data transmission signal", etc.
[0158] In some embodiments, the first information may include at least one second information and at least one third information. The second information may be carried by the first resource, and the third information may be carried by the second resource.
[0159] For example, the second information may be carried by OOK modulation, and the third information may be carried by a time domain or frequency domain sequence on the OOK symbol. For another example, the second information may be carried by PIE modulation, and the third information may be carried by a time domain or frequency domain sequence on the PIE symbol.
[0160] In some embodiments, the bits indicated by the second information and the third information may be the same. For example, the information bits corresponding to the second information are the same as the information bits corresponding to the third information.
[0161] It should be noted that "the information bits corresponding to the second information are the same as the information bits corresponding to the third information" can be understood as "the information carried by the OOK symbol is the same as the information carried by the time domain or frequency domain sequence on the OOK symbol", or "the information carried by the PIE symbol is the same as the information carried by the time domain or frequency domain sequence on the PIE symbol".
[0162] In some embodiments, the first sequence may include a second sequence and a third sequence.
[0163] In some embodiments, the second sequence and the third sequence may be predefined by a protocol.
