[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This disclosure claims priority to a Chinese patent application filed on February 9, 2024, with application number 202410177910.0 and title “Method, device, communication device and medium for determining the received time-frequency position of a signal,” the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this disclosure. Technical Field

[0003] The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of communication technology, and more particularly to a method, device, communication device, and medium for determining a received time-frequency position of a signal. Background Art

[0004] In order to save energy for the terminal, the Low Power Wake-Up Signal (LP-WUS) and the Low Power Wake-Up Receiver (LP-WUR) further reduce the energy consumption of the terminal based on the existing energy-saving technology.

[0005] In the idle state (RRC_IDLE) or inactive state (RRC_INACTIVE) of radio resource control, if there is no business transmission between the base station and the terminal, the terminal turns off the main device (Main Radio, MR) with high energy consumption, and the MR enters an ultra-deep sleep state. At the same time, the terminal turns on the LP-WUR device to receive the LP-WUS sent by the base station. The terminal determines whether it is necessary to wake up the MR to receive the paging information sent by the base station on the paging opportunity (Paging Occasion, PO). This can save unnecessary power consumption overhead caused by the time-frequency synchronization preparation and monitoring of the paging physical downlink control channel (Paging PDCCH) or PEI signal before the terminal receives the PO or paging early indication (Paging Early Indication, PEI) when the base station does not send a paging message to the terminal.

[0006] Currently, LP-WUS is jointly generated based on binary on-off keying (OOK) and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). For the reception of LP-WUS, it is necessary to consider the receiving time-frequency resource location of LP-WUS. Since OOK signals can only be received in the time domain, the receiving end does not have a fast Fourier transform (FFT) module and cannot obtain the frequency domain information of the signal. Therefore, LP-WUS cannot reuse the existing resource determination method for the wake-up signal carried by the PDCCH channel. It is necessary to design a waveform based on LP-WUS and a method for determining the time-frequency resource location of the signal reception. Summary of the Invention

The receiving resource location of the downlink control information-based paging early indication (DCI-based PEI) signal is based on the PEI-specific search space (SS) configured in SIB-1 and a fixed time domain offset (offset) from the target paging opportunity PO to determine the time-frequency resource location of the specific PEI receiving opportunity (PEIOccasion, PEI-O). Compared with the PEI resource location determination, the standardized method of generating LP-WUS signals based on OOK signals has the following problems in determining the time-frequency resource location:

[0146] 1) In the SS configuration of PEI, a single monitoring opportunity (MO) occupies at most three consecutive OFDM symbols within a single time slot in the time domain. However, for LP-WUS generated by OOK, the number of bits carried by a symbol is limited (in the OOK-1 waveform, a symbol can only carry one bit of information). Therefore, an LP-WUS signal needs to occupy multiple OFDM symbols in the time domain. The SS time domain resource configuration is far from sufficient to carry the LP-WUS signal.

[0147] 2) PEI's dedicated SS configuration uses a fixed frequency band in the frequency domain, and all terminals under the base station receive PEI on this frequency band. However, the LP-WUS signal generated using OOK occupies only a relatively small bandwidth in the frequency domain (no more than 5 Mbps, possibly just a few resource blocks (RBs)). For LP-WUS signals transmitted using FDM, it is necessary to distinguish the specific RB locations of different terminals (or terminal groups).

[0148] 3) The MR enters an extremely low power state, requiring a minimum wake-up time of 400ms. If the PEI-O time domain position determination framework is directly reused (i.e., a fixed time domain offset is configured), this offset must be at least 400ms. If the paging message arrives within 400ms of the accessible point of presence (PO), the MR can only receive the paging message at the PO position in the next paging cycle, resulting in an access delay of at least one paging cycle.

[0149] Therefore, the present disclosure designs a method for determining the receiving time-frequency resource position of an LP-WUS signal generated based on an OOK signal and an OFDM sequence, which can determine the receiving time-frequency resource position of an LP-WUS signal jointly transmitted by a time division multiplexing (TDM) mode and / or a group of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) modes and effectively reduce the MR access delay. At least one embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method, device, communication device or storage medium for determining the receiving time-frequency position of a signal, by determining the time-frequency resource position of a listening opportunity of a first signal transmitted based on at least one time division multiplexing (TDM) mode and / or a group of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) modes, and / or the time-frequency resource position of a receiving opportunity of at least one first signal, which is associated with the receiving time-frequency resource position of the target signal, so that the terminal receives the first information at the time-frequency resource position of the listening opportunity and / or the receiving opportunity, and then the reception of the target signal is triggered by the first signal. That is, after the terminal receives the first signal, it indicates that the reception of the target signal has been triggered, and thus the target signal can be received from the receiving time-frequency resource position of the target signal, thereby improving the accuracy of the reception of the target signal.

[0150] FIG1 is a flow chart of a method for determining a received time-frequency position of a signal provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein the method for determining a received time-frequency position of a signal is applied to a terminal. As shown in FIG1 , the method for determining a received time-frequency position of a signal may include but is not limited to step 101:

[0151] In step 101, determine the time-frequency resource position of the listening opportunity of the first signal sent based on at least one time division multiplexing TDM mode and / or a group of frequency division multiplexing FDM modes, and / or the time-frequency resource position of the receiving opportunity of at least one first signal, which is associated with the time-frequency resource position of at least one target signal reception.

[0152] In this embodiment, the target signal may be a signal to be received, and the target signal receiving time-frequency resource location is a preconfigured time-frequency resource location for receiving the target signal. The first signal is used to wake up the terminal to receive the target signal. That is, the terminal first determines the receiving time-frequency resource location for the first signal, and then, after receiving the first signal at the receiving time-frequency resource location for the first signal, the terminal determines to receive the target signal at the target signal receiving time-frequency resource location. Therefore, the target signal receiving time-frequency resource location is a reference location for determining the receiving time-frequency resource location for the first signal.

[0153] In this embodiment, the time-frequency resource position of the monitoring opportunity (MO) of the first signal can be used as the receiving time-frequency resource position of the first signal, or the time-frequency resource position of the receiving opportunity of the first signal can be used as the receiving time-frequency resource position of the first signal.

[0154] In this embodiment, the monitoring opportunity of at least one first signal associated with the target signal reception resource location belongs to the same paging cycle (Paging Cycle) or the same discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle (DRX Cycle).

[0155] In this embodiment, the first signal may be an LP-WUS signal. The terminal determines the time-frequency resource location of a monitoring opportunity (LP-WUS-MO) for at least one LP-WUS signal transmitted based on at least one time division multiplexing (TDM) mode and / or a group of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) modes, and / or the time-frequency resource location of at least one LP-WUS signal reception opportunity (LP-WUS Occasion, LP-WUS-O), which is associated with the time-frequency resource location for receiving at least one target signal.

[0156] In some embodiments, each receiving opportunity includes at least one listening opportunity for the first signal. The at least one listening opportunity included in any receiving opportunity corresponds to different beam directions or to the same beam direction. For any receiving opportunity, based on the time domain resource location and / or frequency domain resource location of the receiving opportunity, the time-frequency resource location of the listening opportunity for the first signal transmitted in the receiving opportunity based on at least one time division multiplexing (TDM) method and / or a group of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) methods is determined.

[0157] For example, each LP-WUS signal reception opportunity (LP-WUS-O) includes at least one LP-WUS signal monitoring opportunity (LP-WUS-MO). For any LP-WUS-O, based on the time domain resource position and / or frequency domain resource position of the LP-WUS-O, the time-frequency resource position of the monitoring opportunity (LP-WUS-MO) for the LP-WUS signal transmitted in the LP-WUS-O based on at least one time division multiplexing (TDM) mode and / or a group of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) modes is determined.

[0158] In some embodiments, the target signal receiving time-frequency resource location includes at least one of the following:

[0159] Paging opportunity PO, paging advance indication opportunity PEI-O, paging frame (Paging Frame, PF), start activation time of discontinuous reception DRX, reception time-frequency resource location of scheduled downlink control information (Downlink Control Information, DCI), and reception time-frequency resource location of non-scheduled DCI (such as DCI 2_6).

[0160] Example 1 Determining the time-frequency resource location of a receiving opportunity based on a configuration method

[0161] Determine, based on pre-received configuration information, a time domain resource location of at least one receiving opportunity associated with a target signal reception time domain resource location, wherein the configuration information is configured by a network side (e.g., a base station) and includes at least one of the following:

[0162] The number of receiving opportunities in a single paging cycle or the number of receiving opportunities in a discontinuous reception DRX cycle, the number of time domain offset values ​​between at least one receiving opportunity and the target signal reception time domain resource position, and at least one time domain offset value.

[0163] For example, a time domain resource location of at least one LP-WUS signal reception opportunity (LP-WUS-O) associated with a target signal reception time domain resource location is determined based on pre-received configuration information, wherein the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0164] The number of LP-WUS-Os in a single paging cycle or discontinuous reception DRX cycle, the number of time domain offset values ​​between at least one LP-WUS-O and the target signal reception time domain resource position, and at least one time domain offset value.

[0165] Based on the above configuration information, two time domain offset calculation methods can be used to determine the time domain resource position of at least one receiving opportunity associated with the target signal receiving time domain resource position:

[0166] Method 1: Use relative time domain offset to determine the time domain resource location of the receiving opportunity

[0167] First, the system frame number (SFN), time slot index or orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol index within the time slot where the target signal receiving time domain resource is located is determined.

[0168] Secondly, based on the system frame number SFN where the target signal receiving time domain resource position is located, the time slot index or the OFDM symbol index within the time slot, and the time domain offset value between the first receiving opportunity and the target signal receiving time domain resource position, the time domain resource position of the first receiving opportunity is determined.

[0169] For example, the time domain resource position of the first LP-WUS-O is determined based on the system frame number SFN, the time slot index or the OFDM symbol index in the time slot, and the time domain offset value between the first LP-WUS-O and the time domain resource position of the target signal reception.

[0170] Finally, based on the time domain resource position of the first receiving opportunity and the relative time domain offset value between two adjacent receiving opportunities, the time domain resource position of each receiving opportunity in a single paging cycle or DRX cycle is determined.

[0171] For example, based on the time domain resource position of the first LP-WUS-O and the relative time domain offset value between two adjacent LP-WUS-Os, the time domain resource position of each LP-WUS-O in a single paging cycle or DRX cycle is determined.

[0172] Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present disclosure for determining the time domain resource position of a receiving opportunity using a relative time domain offset. In Figure 7, based on the time domain offset value between the first receiving opportunity and the target signal receiving time domain resource position (i.e., the time domain position of the paging opportunity), the time domain resource position of the first receiving opportunity can be determined. Then, based on the time domain resource position of the first receiving opportunity and the relative time domain offset value between two adjacent receiving opportunities, the time domain resource position of each receiving opportunity within a single paging cycle can be determined.

[0173] Method 2 uses absolute time domain offset to determine the time domain resource location of the receiving opportunity

[0174] First, the system frame number SFN, the time slot index or the OFDM symbol index within the time slot where the target signal receiving time domain resource position is located is determined.

[0175] Secondly, based on the system frame number SFN where the target signal receiving time domain resource position is located, the time slot index or the OFDM symbol index within the time slot, and the time domain offset value between each receiving opportunity and the target signal receiving time domain resource position (that is, the absolute time domain offset value based on the target signal receiving time domain resource position), the time domain resource position of each receiving opportunity within a single paging cycle or DRX cycle is determined.

[0176] For example, based on the system frame number SFN where the target signal reception time domain resource position is located, the time slot index or the OFDM symbol index in the time slot, and the time domain offset value between each LP-WUS-O and the target signal reception time domain resource position (that is, the absolute time domain offset value based on the target signal reception time domain resource position), the time domain resource position of each LP-WUS-O in a single paging cycle or DRX cycle is determined.

[0177] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present disclosure providing a method of using absolute time domain offset to determine the time domain resource position of a receiving opportunity. In Figure 8, based on the time domain offset value between each receiving opportunity and the target signal receiving time domain resource position (i.e., the time domain position of the paging opportunity) (i.e., the absolute time domain offset value based on the time domain position of the paging opportunity), the time domain resource position of each receiving opportunity within a single paging cycle is determined.

[0178] The time domain resource position of the receiving opportunity determined by either method 1 or method 2 may be: the starting symbol index of the receiving opportunity, the ending symbol index of the receiving opportunity, or any predefined symbol index in the receiving opportunity.

[0179] Example 2 Determining the time-frequency resource location of the monitoring opportunity based on the configuration method

[0180] (1) Temporal resource location of monitoring opportunities

[0181] Determine a time domain resource location for each listening opportunity in the receiving opportunity based on pre-received configuration information and the time domain resource location of the receiving opportunity, wherein the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0182] The protection time interval between adjacent first signal listening opportunities, the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal within a single receiving opportunity, the number of transmission beams of the first signal within a single receiving opportunity, and the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmission beam.

[0183] For example, based on pre-received configuration information and the time domain resource location of the LP-WUS-O, the time domain resource location of each LP-WUS-MO in the LP-WUS-O is determined, wherein the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0184] The protection time interval between the LP-WUS-MOs of adjacent first signals, the number of repeated transmissions of the LP-WUS signal within a single LP-WUS-O, the number of transmission beams of the LP-WUS signal within a single LP-WUS-O, and the number of repeated transmissions of the LP-WUS signal under a single transmission beam.

[0185] (2) Frequency domain resource location of monitoring opportunities

[0186] Determine, based on pre-received configuration information, a frequency domain resource location of a listening opportunity for each first signal in a receiving opportunity, wherein the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0187] Guard bandwidth information of the monitoring opportunity and / or information on the frequency band occupied by the monitoring opportunity.

[0188] In some embodiments, a frequency domain resource location of a listening opportunity for each first signal in a reception opportunity is determined based on pre-received configuration information, where the configuration information includes at least one of the following:

[0189] The frequency domain group where the monitoring opportunity is located, and the number of subgroups and / or subgroup index information associated with the frequency domain group where the monitoring opportunity is located.

[0190] Example 3

[0191] That any receiving opportunity includes at least one listening opportunity for the first signal specifically means that any receiving opportunity includes at least one listening opportunity for a repeatedly transmitted first signal and / or at least one listening opportunity for a first signal in a beam direction.

[0192] For example, any receiving opportunity includes at least one listening opportunity for a repeatedly transmitted LP-WUS signal and / or at least one listening opportunity for a LP-WUS signal in a beam direction.

[0193] Any receiving opportunity includes at least one listening opportunity for a repeatedly transmitted first signal and / or at least one listening opportunity for a first signal in a beam direction, and specifically may be any of the following three scenarios:

[0194] Scenario 1: Any receiver opportunity includes listening opportunities for F×T consecutive first signals transmitted via time division multiplexing (TDM). F is the number of transmit beams, which can be the number of actual transmit beams per synchronization block (SSB) or the number of beams specified by the number of first signal transmit beams parameter in the configuration information. T is the number of repetitive transmissions of the first signal in a single transmit beam, which is configured in the configuration information.

[0195] Scenario 2: Any receiving opportunity includes an opportunity to listen to F×T consecutive first signals sent based on frequency division multiplexing (FDM); where F is the number of transmit beams and T is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmit beam.

[0196] Scenario 3: Any receiving opportunity includes a listening opportunity for F×T consecutive first signals jointly transmitted based on the TDM method and / or a group of FDM methods; where F is the number of transmit beams and T is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmit beam.

[0197] In scenario three, any receiving opportunity includes F×T consecutive listening opportunities of the first signal jointly transmitted based on TDM mode and / or a group of FDM modes. Different methods are used to determine the consecutive number of listening opportunities of the first signal according to different transmission modes.

[0198] Transmission Mode 1: The first signal in different transmit beam directions is transmitted using FDM. The first signal repeatedly transmitted in a single transmit beam direction is transmitted using TDM. F is the number of transmit beams used to transmit the first signal using FDM. This can be the number of actual SSB transmit beams or the number of first signal transmit beams configuration parameter in the configuration information. T is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal in a single transmit beam using TDM, which is determined by the configuration information or predefined in the protocol.

[0199] For example, Figure 9 shows the distribution of listening opportunities in a multi-beam FDM and repeated transmission TDM scenario, as provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. In Figure 9, the largest box represents a receiving opportunity, and the smaller boxes represent a listening opportunity. A receiving opportunity includes 16 listening opportunities. Listening opportunities with the same pattern are transmitted by the same beam. As can be seen in Figure 9, four beams are frequency-division multiplexed (FDM) and one beam is time-division multiplexed (TDM).

[0200] Transmission method two: different transmission beams use TDM to send the first signal, and a single transmission beam uses FDM to send the first signal. F is the number of transmission beams that use TDM to send the first signal, and it can also be the number of actual SSB transmission beams, or it can be determined by the configuration parameter of the number of first signal transmission beams in the configuration information; T is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmission beam that uses FDM to send the first signal, which is determined by the configuration information or pre-defined by the protocol.

[0201] For example, Figure 10 is a schematic diagram of the distribution of listening opportunities in a multi-beam TDM mode and repeated transmission FDM mode scenario provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. In Figure 10, listening opportunities of the same pattern are transmitted by the same beam. It can be seen that in Figure 9, four beams are time-division multiplexing TDM mode, and one beam is frequency-division multiplexing FDM mode.

[0202] Transmission mode three: F is the number of transmission beams for jointly sending the first signal using the TDM mode and the FDM mode, and can also be the number of actual SSB transmission beams, or can be determined by the configuration parameter of the number of first signal transmission beams in the configuration information; T is T0×T1, where T0 is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmission beam for sending the first signal using the FDM mode, and T1 is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmission beam for sending the first signal using the TDM mode. T0 and T1 are determined by the configuration information or predefined by the protocol.

[0203] Transmission mode four: F is F0×F1, where F0 is the number of transmission beams for sending the first signal using the FDM method; F1 is the number of transmission beams for sending the first signal using the TDM method; and T is the number of repeated transmissions of the first signal under a single transmission beam for jointly sending the first signal using the TDM method and the FDM method.

[0204] For example, Figure 11 is a schematic diagram of the distribution of listening opportunities for jointly sending a first signal using TDM and FDM methods provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. In Figure 11, listening opportunities of the same pattern are transmitted by the same beam. It can be seen that in Figure 11, each beam uses both frequency division multiplexing FDM and time division multiplexing TDM.

[0205] In the above embodiments 1 to 3, a configuration method is used to determine the receiving time-frequency position of the first signal. The configuration information involved in the configuration method can be cell-level configuration information (i.e., each terminal in the cell shares a set of configuration information), terminal-level configuration information (i.e., the configuration information of each terminal is different), or terminal group-level configuration information (i.e., each terminal in the same terminal group shares a set of configuration information). The terminal obtains the configuration information through signaling, wherein the signaling includes at least one of the following: dynamic signaling, broadcast signaling, dynamic activation signaling, or dynamic deactivation signaling.

[0206] Example 4 Determining the Time Domain Resource Location of a Receiving Opportunity Based on a Formula Method

[0207] Determine a time domain starting position of at least one receiving opportunity associated with a target signal receiving time-frequency resource position based on a predefined formula, wherein the predefined formula includes at least one of the following parameters:

[0208] The system frame number SFN, time slot index or OFDM symbol index within the time slot where the first signal resides;

[0209] A first signal reception cycle (e.g., reception is performed once every 5 ms, the length of a monitoring opportunity is less than the reception cycle, and there are multiple monitoring opportunities in one reception cycle), a paging cycle, or a discontinuous reception DRX cycle;

[0210] A single or a group of consecutive paging opportunities PO, subgroups or paging frames PF associated with multiple first signals sent in an FDM manner;

[0211] The PF index, PO index (for example, if the base station is configured with 4 POs, the index is any value from 0 to 3), subgroup identifier or terminal identifier of the terminal.

[0212] In some embodiments, the predefined formula is as follows: (A+first signal offset value) mod (B) = (B div C) × (D mod C);

[0213] Wherein, A is the system frame number SFN, time slot index or OFDM symbol index within the time slot where the first signal is located;

[0214] B is a first signal reception cycle, a paging cycle or a discontinuous reception DRX cycle;

[0215] C is the number of consecutive paging opportunities PO, subgroups or paging frames PF associated with a single or a group of first signals sent in FDM mode;

[0216] D is the PF index, PO index, subgroup identifier or terminal identifier where the terminal is located.

[0217] In some embodiments, if the target signal receiving time domain resource position is associated with the reception opportunity of multiple first signals sent by TDM modes or multiple groups of FDM modes, then A includes the system frame number SFN, time slot index or OFDM mode symbol index within the time slot where each first signal is located, or each first signal corresponds to a first signal offset value.

[0218] In some embodiments, if the target signal reception time-frequency resource position is associated with multiple reception opportunities of first signals transmitted in TDM mode or multiple groups of FDM mode, the time domain starting position of the first reception opportunity is determined based on a predefined formula.

[0219] After determining the time domain starting position of the first receiving opportunity, the time domain starting position of each receiving opportunity is determined based on the time domain starting position of the first receiving opportunity and the relative time domain offset value between two adjacent receiving opportunities; or, the time domain position of each receiving opportunity is determined based on the time domain starting position of the first receiving opportunity and the time domain offset value between each receiving opportunity and the target signal receiving time domain resource position.

[0220] Based on the above embodiments, some specific examples are given below to supplement the technical details of this solution:

[0221] Embodiment 5: Determining the LP-WUS reception time-frequency resource location based on the first configuration information and / or the second configuration information

[0222] Step 1: The base station side configures the first configuration information and / or the second configuration information to at least one LP-WUR to determine the receiving time domain and / or frequency domain resource position of at least one LP-WUS generated based on ASK / FSK and OFDM sequence.

[0223] Step 2: LP-WUR determines the receiving time domain and / or frequency domain resource position of the first signal (LP-WUS-MO) generated by the ASK / FSK and OFDM sequence and sent by at least one TDM mode and / or FDM mode based on the first configuration information.

[0224] 2.1 The first device determines, based on the first configuration information, a starting reception time domain resource position of at least one LP-WUS reception opportunity (LP-WUS-O) associated with a single Paging / DRX Cycle target PO;

[0225] Supplement a subordinate description of LP-WUS-O: the LP-WUS-O associated with the target PO may also be at least one LP-WUS-O in a single Paging Cycle or DRX cycle.

[0226] An LP-WUS-O includes at least one repeatedly transmitted single LP-WUS reception opportunity (LP-WUS-MO), and these LP-WUS-MOs may have different beam directions or the same beam direction, depending on the transmit beam number configuration information in the first configuration information;

[0227] The first configuration information includes one or more of the following:

[0228] The number of LP-WUS reception opportunities (LP-WUS-O) in a single Paging / DRX cycle;

[0229] The number of LP-WUS reception opportunities (LP-WUS-O) associated with a target PO;

[0230] The number of time domain offset values ​​from the target PEI-O / PO / PF / DRX start activation time;

[0231] At least one time domain offset value from the target PEI-O / PO / PF / DRX start activation time, LP-WUS_offset. In particular, LP-WUS_offset may include one or more offset values, such as: LP-WUS_offset = {Offset0, Offset1, Offset2...}.

[0232] Guard Time of LP-WUS (GT_LP_WUS) between adjacent LP-WUS signals;

[0233] Number of subgroups / POs / PFs / UEs (groups) associated with LP-WUS signals;

[0234] The number of transmit beams in a single LP-WUS-O. In particular, if this parameter is not configured, the default number of transmit beams is 1.

[0235] Number of repeated transmissions in a single LP-WUS-O transmission beam;

[0236] Number of repeated transmissions in a single LP-WUS-O;

[0237] An LP-WUS-O includes multiple receiving resource locations of repeatedly transmitted LP-WUS signals, and the number of repeated transmissions is related to the number of transmission beams in a single LP-WUS-O and / or the number of repeated transmissions of LP-WUS in a single transmission beam direction and / or the number of repeated transmissions in a single LP-WUS-O.

[0238] The LP-WUS-O includes 'the number of transmission beams in a single LP-WUS-O * the number of repeated transmissions of the LP-WUS in a single transmission beam direction' consecutive LP-WUS signal reception time-frequency resource positions.

[0239] The number of transmit beams in a single LP-WUS-O may be determined based on numofLP-WUS_beam (number of transmit beams in a single LP-WUS-O parameter) in the first configuration information or the number of SSB beams actually transmitted, where the number of SSBs actually transmitted is determined by the parameter ssb-PositionsInBurst in SIB-1. In particular, if neither of these two parameters is configured, the number of transmit beams in a single LP-WUS-O is 1.

[0240] The number of repeated transmissions of the LP-WUS in a single transmit beam direction may be determined based on numofLP-WUS_repeti (number of repeated transmissions in a single LP-WUS-O transmit beam) in the first configuration information, or this parameter may be directly multiplexed using nrofPDCCH-MonitoringOccasionPerSSB-InPO in the NR protocol. In particular, if neither of these two parameters is configured, the number of repeated transmissions of the LP-WUS in a single transmit beam direction is 1.

[0241] The method for LP-WUR to determine the starting receiving time domain position of LP-WUS is as follows:

[0242] Case 1: When there is only one LP-WUS reception opportunity (LP-WUS-O) transmitted in TDM mode and / or a group of FDM modes within a single Paging / DRX cycle, the reception start symbol position of the LP-WUS-O is determined based on at least one time domain offset;

[0243] The time domain offset value may be one or more. If the units of the multiple time domain offset values ​​are different, the units may include: at least one of SFN / ms / slot / symbol level;

[0244] For example: the base station configures two time domain offset values ​​LP-WUS_offset_SFN and LP-WUS_offset_symbol, LP-WUS_offset_SFN indicates the distance between LP-WUS-O and the SFN where the target PO / PF / PEI-O is located, and the unit is SFN; LP-WUS_offset_symbol indicates the number of time domain offset symbols of LP-WUS-O in SFN, and the unit is symbol; LP-WUR can be based on determining the starting reception SFN position of LP-WUS-O, and based on LP-WUS_offset_symbol, further confirm the starting reception symbol position within the SFN where LP-WUS-O is located.

[0245] The reference points of multiple time domain offset values ​​may also be different.

[0246] For example, the base station configures two time domain offset values ​​LP-WUS_offset_SFN and LP-WUS_offset_symbol. LP-WUS_offset_SFN indicates the distance between the LP-WUS-O and the SFN where the target PO / PF / PEI-O is located, and the unit is SFN. LP-WUS_offset_symbol indicates the number of time domain offset symbols of the LP-WUS-O in the SFN, and the unit is symbol. The reference point of LP-WUS_offset_SFN is the target PO / PF / PEI-O, and the reference point of LP-WUS_offset_symbol is the position of the first symbol of the SFN determined based on LP-WUS_offset_SFN.

[0247] Case 2: When there are multiple LP-WUS reception opportunities (LP-WUS-O) sent in TDM mode or multiple groups of FDM mode within a single Paging / DRX cycle, the LP-WUR can use one of the following two methods to determine the starting time domain positions of multiple LP-WUS reception opportunities:

[0248] Among them, in a single cycle, multiple LP-WUS-Os can send LP-WUS signals to wake up the same or different terminals (groups). Multiple LP-WUS-Os and multiple terminal groups can correspond one to one or one LP-WUS-O can correspond to multiple terminal groups.

[0249] Example 1: P LP-WUS-Os correspond to P terminal groups. All terminals in a Paging Cycle are divided into P groups (one terminal corresponds to total_subgroup_num / P subgroups). These P groups of terminals correspond to P LP-WUS-Os in the Paging cycle based on the terminal groups they are in. For example, the terminal in the first terminal group receives LP-WUS in the first LP-WUS-O, and so on.

[0250] In a single cycle, multiple LP-WUS-Os can send LP-WUS signals in the same beam direction or different beam directions to wake up the same terminal (group);

[0251] Method 1: Determine the starting reception time domain position of the first LP-WUS-O based on the SFN / Slot / Symbol of the first target position and the first offset value; use the predefined time domain position of the previous LP-WUS-O as a reference point, and sequentially determine the starting reception time domain positions of the remaining LP-WUS-Os in a single Paging / DRX cycle based on the second offset value and / or the number of LP-WUS reception opportunities (LP-WUS-Os) in a single Paging / DRX cycle.

[0252] The first target location may be at least one of the following:

[0253] 1. The first PEI-O or the last PEI-O in at least one target PEI-O, or any other predefined or preconfigured PEI-O;

[0254] 2. The first PO or the last PO in at least one target PO, or any other predefined or preconfigured PO;

[0255] 3. The first PF or the last PF in at least one target PF, or any other predefined or preconfigured PF;

[0256] The first offset value and / or the second offset value may include at least one time domain offset value, and different values ​​may correspond to different time domain resource granularities (e.g., ms, SFN, Slot, symbol);

[0257] The predefined time domain position of the previous LP-WUS-O as the reference point may be: the starting symbol position of the LP-WUS-O or the last symbol position of the LP-WUS-O or any predefined position of the LP-WUS-O;

[0258] Take the following as an example: SIB-1 configures an LP-WUS_offset set and the number K of LP-WUS-Os associated with a single Paging Cycle / single target PO. Among them, there are two offset values ​​{Offset_1, Offset_2} in the LP-WUS-offset set, and the time granularity of these two time domain offsets is at the Symbol level. Offset_1 represents the time domain position offset of the first LP-WUS-O associated with a single Paging Cycle / single target PO from the target PO / PEI-O / PF. Offset_2 represents the time domain offset value between two adjacent LP-WUS-Os, which can determine the time domain starting reception position of the remaining K-1 LP-WUS-Os in the Paging Cycle;

[0259] Method 2: Based on at least one time domain offset value in the first configuration information and / or the number of time domain offset values ​​from the target PEI-O / PO / PF / DRX start activation time, independently determine the starting reception time domain position of at least one LP-WUS-O in a single Paging / DRX cycle.

[0260] For example, SIB-1 configures an LP-WUS_offset set. The LP-WUS-offset set contains three offset values: {Offset_1, Offset_2, Offset_3}. These three offsets are time-domain offsets at the symbol level. Offset_1 through Offset_3 represent the time-domain position offsets of the three LP-WUS-Os associated with a single Paging Cycle / target PO from the target PO / PEI-O / PF. Accordingly, the LP-WUR determines the starting receive symbol positions of the three LP-WUS-Os within a single Paging Cycle based on these three offsets.

[0261] The first device determines, based on the first configuration information, reception position information of at least one LP-WUS signal of at least one LP-WUS reception opportunity (LP-WUS-O) within a single Paging / DRX Cycle;

[0262] The first configuration information includes but is not limited to: a guard time of LP-WUS (GT_LP_WUS) between adjacent LP-WUS signals, the number of repeated transmissions under a single LP-WUS-O, the number of transmitted beams of LP-WUS under a single LP-WUS-O, and the number of repeated transmissions of LP-WUS under a single beam.

[0263] 2.2 The first device determines the frequency domain position or frequency domain subgroup information of at least one LP-WUS reception opportunity (LP-WUS-O) based on the first configuration information and / or the second information. The specific determination method is as follows:

[0264] Method 1: The first device determines, based on the first information, frequency domain reception position information of at least one LP-WUS-O sent in a TDM manner or a group of LP-WUS-O sent in an FDM manner, where the frequency domain information includes:

[0265] The size of the guard bandwidth between the LP-WUS and NR channels;

[0266] The starting RB index of the frequency band where the LP-WUS is located;

[0267] End RB index of the frequency band where LP-WUS is located;

[0268] LP-WUS bandwidth size;

[0269] Method 2: The first device determines information of the frequency band subgroup where the LP-WUS sent in FDM mode is located based on the first information, and determines subgroup index information and / or subgroup frequency domain position information within the frequency domain group based on the second configuration information.

[0270] The first configuration information includes:

[0271] The total bandwidth of the frequency band occupied by at least one group of LP-WUS signals transmitted in FDM mode;

[0272] The starting RB index of the frequency band occupied by at least one group of LP-WUS signals transmitted in FDM mode;

[0273] The end RB index of the frequency band occupied by at least one group of LP-WUS signals transmitted in FDM mode;

[0274] The number of LP-WUS transmitted using FDM (or the number of sub-bands within the LP-WUS band);

[0275] The bandwidth of the frequency band subgroup occupied by a single LP-WUS;

[0276] The frequency band subgroup index occupied by a single LP-WUS;

[0277] The second configuration information may be: one or more of: UE_ID, index information of the PO where the first device is located, index information of the PF where the first device is located, index information of the subgroup where the first device is located, number information of PO / PF / subgroup associated with LP-WUS, index information of PO / PF / subgroup associated with LP-WUS, number and / or index information of PO / PF / subgroup associated with a group of LP-WUS-associated POs sent in an FDM manner;

[0278] For example, the total transmission bandwidth of LP-WUS is 5M. The 5M bandwidth can be pre-divided into two sub-band groups. Each sub-band group can independently transmit an LP-WUS signal. The bandwidth of each sub-band group is LP_BW PRBs. The frequency range of each sub-band is PRB_start+LP_BW*freloca_index~PRB_start+LP_BW*(freloca_index+1) (freloca_index=0~1).

[0279] Among them, freloca_index can be determined by the PO_index, subgroup_index, and the number of LP-WUS-associated POs sent by the FDM mode where the first device is located, and the number of subgroups under the PO, wherein freloca_index = (subgroup_index + PO_index * subgroup_num_perPO) mode (the number of LP-WUS sent by the FDM mode or the number of sub-bands under the LP-WUS band);

[0289] Or mode 3 (mode 1 + mode 2): F is the number of beams transmitted in the FDM mode and the TDM mode, which may be the number of beams actually transmitted in the SSB mode, or F = F0 * F1, where F0 is the number of beams transmitted in the FDM mode, and F1 is the number of beams transmitted in the TDM mode, which may be determined by the first configuration information or predefined protocol; T is the number of repeated transmissions of LP-WUS in the FDM mode and a single transmission beam in the FDM mode, which may be determined by the first configuration parameter or predefined protocol;
