[0042] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used in this application to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining".
[0043] First, the communication technology involved in the embodiments of this application is introduced:
[0044] Subband Non-Overlapping Full Duplex (SBFD):
[0045] To overcome the problems of weak uplink coverage, long uplink latency, and insufficient uplink capacity caused by limited uplink (UL) resource allocation in Time Division Duplexing (TDD) technology, SBFD technology was proposed. SBFD technology allows data to be simultaneously transmitted and received on different subbands within the same subframe, time slot, or symbol. SBFD is primarily used on the network equipment side, while the user equipment (UE) side maintains its current state, specifically only transmitting or receiving data within the same subframe, time slot, or symbol. SBFD is also known as Cross Division Duplex (XDD) technology.
[0046] Exemplarily, the SBFD technology, as shown in Figure 1, configures a portion of the frequency domain resources corresponding to a downlink (DL) time domain unit as an uplink subband. As shown in Figure 1(a), the middle subband of the frequency domain resources corresponding to a downlink time domain unit is configured as an uplink subband. Alternatively, as shown in Figure 1(b), the upper subband of the frequency domain resources corresponding to a downlink time domain unit is configured as an uplink subband.
[0047] In the present application, the time domain unit includes at least one of the following: frame, subframe, slot, mini-slot, sub-slot, symbol, symbol group, and time domain unit based on other time domain units.
[0048] Generally speaking, SBFD operations meet the following requirements:
[0049] SBFD operation within a TDD carrier.
[0050] SBFD scheme within a single configured DL and UL BWP pair with aligned center frequencies.
[0051] Within a TDD carrier, there is at most one UL subband for SBFD operation in an SBFD symbol (excluding legacy UL symbol) within a TDD carrier. This uplink subband can be located in the middle of the TDD carrier or on both sides of the TDD carrier.
[0052] This uplink subband may be configured in a downlink symbol (DL symbol) and / or a flexible symbol (Flexible Symbol) configured in TDD uplink and downlink common configuration (TDD-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon) signaling.
[0053] When the uplink occupies the full bandwidth, it is called Dynamic TDD (Dynamic TDD). This can be seen as an extreme case of SBFD technology, which can dynamically adapt the transmission direction of time domain resources based on time slots.
[0054] Channel State Information (CSI) Framework:
[0055] To understand the wireless channel conditions, a CSI measurement and reporting mechanism was introduced. Specifically, network devices transmit downlink Channel State Information-Reference Signals (CSI-RS). Terminal devices measure the CSI-RS to estimate the current wireless channel quality and report the measurement results to the network device, enabling it to schedule the terminal device appropriately. The CSI framework primarily consists of two components: resource configuration and reporting configuration.
[0056] Resource configuration is mainly completed through the Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer signaling CSI-ResourceConfig IE. Each CSI-ResourceConfig contains one or more CSI resource sets (CSI Resource Set), or each CSI-ResourceConfig is associated with one or more CSI resource sets. Each CSI resource set is located in the DL BWP indicated by the high-layer parameter bwp-Id in the CSI-ResourceConfig IE. These CSI resource sets may include one or more of the following: non-zero-power CSI-RS resource set (Non-Zero-Power CSI-RS Resource Set, NZP CSI-RS Resource Set); synchronization signal block set / synchronization signal block resource set (Synchronization Signal / Physical Broadcast Channel Block Resource Set, SS / PBCH Block Resource Set, SS / PBCH Block Resource Set, SSB Resource Set); CSI interference measurement resource set (CSI Interference Measurement Resource Set, CSI-IM Resource Set).
[0057] Each NZP CSI-RS resource set is configured by the NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet IE. Each NZP CSI-RS resource set contains one or more NZP CSI-RS resources, or each NZP CSI-RS resource set is associated with one or more NZP CSI-RS resources. Each NZP CSI-RS resource is configured by the NZP-CSI-RS-Resource IE.
[0058] Each SSB resource set is configured by the CSI-SSB-ResourceSet IE. Each SSB resource set contains one or more SSBs, or each SSB resource set is associated with one or more SSBs. Each SSB resource set is configured in the ServingCellConfigCommon IE.
[0059] Each CSI-IM resource set is configured by the CSI-IM-ResourceSet IE. Each CSI-IM resource set contains one or more CSI-IM resources, or each CSI-IM resource set is associated with one or more CSI-IM resources. Each CSI-IM resource is configured by the CSI-IM-Resource IE.
[0060] In addition, the CSI-ResourceConfig IE also specifies the time domain behavior of these CSI-RS resources (sets), such as the time domain behavior of NZP CSI-RS resources (sets) and CSI-IM resources (sets). The time domain behavior of CSI-RS resources (sets) in the same resource configuration CSI-ResourceConfig can be configured as periodic (Periodic), semi-persistent (Semi-persistent), or aperiodic (Aperiodic) by the higher-layer parameter resourceType in the CSI-ResourceConfig IE.
[0061] The report configuration is mainly completed through the RRC layer signaling CSI-ReportConfig IE. Each CSI-ReportConfig contains one or more resource configurations (CSI-ResourceConfig), or each CSI-ReportConfig is associated with one or more resource configurations, indicating the resource configuration used for channel measurement and / or interference measurement. In addition, each CSI-ReportConfig also includes configuration parameters such as codebook configuration, time domain behavior, frequency domain granularity of channel quality indication (Channel Qualify Indicator, CQI) and precoding matrix indication (Precoding Matrix Indicator, PMI), measurement restriction configuration, and CSI-related indication quantity reported by UE. Among them, the codebook configuration is used to configure Type I, Type II or enhanced Type II codebook and one or more items in the codebook restriction subset. Time-domain behaviors include periodicity, semi-persistent on PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel), semi-persistent on PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), and aperiodicity. The frequency-domain granularity of CQI and PMI can be either wideband or subband. Measurement restriction configuration includes channel measurement restrictions and interference measurement restrictions. The CSI-related indicator reported by the UE includes at least one of the following: CQI, PMI, CSI-RS Resource Indicator (CSI-RS Resource Indicator, CRI), SSB Resource Indicator (SS / PBCH Block Resource Indicator, SSBRI), Layer Indicator (Layer Indicator, LI), Rank Indicator (Rank Indicator, RI), Layer 1 Reference Signal Receiving Power (L1-Reference Signal Receiving Power, L1-RSRP), Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, L1-SINR).
[0062] Periodic CSI reporting takes effect once configured via RRC layer signaling and does not require further activation / triggering via the Medium Access Control Control Element (MAC CE) or Downlink Control Information (DCI). Before a terminal device sends a CSI report, the network device must first send the CSI-RS resources to the terminal device according to the resource configuration. The terminal device can then measure the corresponding CSI-RS resources and calculate and report the CSI report. The time slots for periodic reporting by the terminal device must meet the agreed conditions.
[0063] There are two types of semi-persistent CSI reporting: sending CSI reports on PUCCH and sending CSI reports on PUSCH.
[0064] For the case of sending CSI reports on PUCCH, first, one or more CSI-ReportConfigs with reportConfigType of semiPersistentOnPUCCH are configured for the terminal device through RRC layer signaling. Then, the terminal device is notified of which CSI-ReportConfigs are activated through the MAC layer's PUCCH-based semi-persistent CSI report activation MAC CE, or the terminal device is notified of which CSI-ReportConfigs are deactivated through the MAC layer's PUCCH-based semi-persistent CSI report deactivation MAC CE.
[0065] Refer to Figure 2, S i The (i=0,1,2,3…) field is used to indicate the activation / deactivation status of the semi-persistent CSI reporting configuration in the csi-ReportConfigToAddModList in the CSI-MeasConfig. S0 represents the PUCCH-based semi-persistent CSI reporting configuration with the smallest CSI-ReportConfigId in the csi-ReportConfigToAddModList, and so on. If the number of PUCCH-based semi-persistent CSI reporting configurations associated with the UL BWP in the csi-ReportConfigToAddModList is less than i+1, then S i The following fields will be ignored. i =1 indicates that the corresponding PUCCH-based semi-persistent CSI reporting configuration is activated, S i =0 indicates that the corresponding PUCCH-based semi-persistent CSI reporting configuration is deactivated.
[0066] For CSI reports sent on PUSCH, the network device configures one or more trigger states CSI-SemiPersistentOnPUSCH-TriggerState for the UE through the high-layer parameter CSI-SemiPersistentOnPUSCH-TriggerStateList in the RRC signaling CSI-MeasConfig IE. The UE then monitors the CSI request field of DCI format 0_1 / 0_2 and determines the triggered CSI-SemiPersistentOnPUSCH-TriggerState based on the CSI request field.
[0067] For non-periodic CSI reports, first, the network device configures one or more trigger states CSI-AperiodicTriggerState for the terminal device through the high-level parameter CSI-AperiodicTriggerStateList in the RRC layer signaling CSI-MeasConfig IE. Then, the terminal device monitors the CSI request field of DCI format 0_1 / 0_2 and determines the triggered CSI-AperiodicTriggerState according to the CSI request field. Each CSI-AperiodicTriggerState contains one or more CSI-ReportConfigs associated with it, and a resource set associated with it for channel measurement and / or interference measurement, and the resource set includes, for example, at least one of the following: NZP CSI-RS resource set, CSI-IM resource set, SSB resource set.
[0068] Both SBFD, which embeds uplink subbands into downlink timeslots, and dynamic TDD, which flexibly changes the transmission direction of each timeslot, face the problem of interference between terminal devices due to the configuration flexibility of each terminal device, such as cross-link interference (CLI). In other words, when adjacent terminal devices are configured with different transmission directions, the terminal receiving the downlink channel will be interfered with by the uplink transmission of the adjacent terminal device.
[0069] In order to adopt a better scheduling strategy to deal with CLI problems, it is necessary to have an accurate assessment of the downlink quality and / or interference signal strength. However, the setting of the measurement quantity and measurement granularity of the conventional CSI measurement reporting mechanism is difficult to meet the requirements of identifying interference signal strength and measuring channel quality under SBFD technology or dynamic TDD technology. In addition, the CLI reporting in the related technology is based on the Layer 3 filtering mechanism, which reflects the stable long-term interference intensity and cannot effectively reflect the interference intensity between adjacent terminal devices in real time. Therefore, it cannot assist network equipment in quickly responding to CLI problems.
[0070] Therefore, the present application provides a configuration method that helps to achieve effective evaluation and timely reporting of link quality and / or interference intensity.

[0148] (6) Report configuration of joint information
[0149] In some embodiments, each reporting configuration of joint information is associated with one or more measurement resource configurations of joint information.
[0150] In some embodiments, each joint information reporting configuration is associated with at least one joint information measurement resource set.
[0151] In some embodiments, the reporting configuration of each joint information is associated with at least one of the following: one first measurement resource, multiple first measurement resources, one second measurement resource, multiple second measurement resources, one CSI-RS measurement resource, multiple CSI-RS measurement resources, one CSI-IM measurement resource, multiple CSI-IM measurement resources, one SRS measurement resource, and multiple SRS measurement resources.
[0152] In some embodiments, the time domain characteristics of the joint information reporting configuration are periodic, semi-persistent, aperiodic, or trigger-based. That is, the joint information reporting configuration instructs the UE to periodically report the joint information measurement report, or semi-persistently report the joint information measurement report, or aperiodic report the joint information measurement report, or event-triggered report the joint information measurement report.
[0153] In some embodiments, the reporting configuration of the joint information is configured with broadband granularity or subband granularity. That is, the reporting configuration of the joint information instructs the UE to report the measurement report of the broadband joint information, or instructs the UE to report the measurement report of the subband joint information.
[0154] In some embodiments, the frequency domain characteristics of the joint information reporting configuration are associated with the frequency domain characteristics of the joint information measurement resource configuration. For example, if the joint information measurement resource configuration is configured with subband granularity, the joint information reporting configuration instructs the UE to report the joint information measurement report according to the subband of the joint information measurement resource configuration. For another example, if the joint information measurement resource configuration is configured with wideband granularity, the joint information reporting configuration instructs the UE to report the joint information measurement report with wideband granularity, or instructs the UE to report the joint information measurement report with subband granularity.
[0155] Exemplarily, when the reporting configuration of the joint information is configured with broadband as the granularity, the reporting configuration of the joint information instructs the UE to calculate and report the joint information based on measurement resources on one broadband.
[0156] Exemplarily, when the reporting configuration of the joint information is configured with subband granularity, the reporting configuration of the joint information instructs the UE to calculate and report the joint information based on the measurement resources on one or more subbands. Optionally, the multiple subbands are continuous or discontinuous in the frequency domain. Optionally, the number of RBs in different subbands is the same or different. Optionally, the subbands indicated by the reporting configuration of the joint information are divided according to a sixth subband configuration method. Optionally, the sixth subband configuration method is to evenly divide the first number of RBs into multiple subbands. In this case, the number of RBs in different subbands indicated by the reporting configuration of the joint information is the same. Optionally, the sixth subband configuration method is to unevenly divide the first number of RBs. In this case, the number of RBs in different subbands indicated by the reporting configuration of the joint information is different.

[0157] In some embodiments, the first sub-band configuration, the second sub-band configuration, the third sub-band configuration, the fourth sub-band configuration, the fifth sub-band configuration, and the sixth sub-band configuration are the same or different.
[0158] In this application, configuring measurement resources / reporting configurations at the broadband granularity can effectively save overhead. Configuring measurement resources / reporting configurations at the subband granularity allows for accurate and flexible acquisition of the channel status and / or interference information on the subband, helping network devices adjust scheduling strategies more accurately and flexibly, improving scheduling performance. Especially for communication scenarios employing SBFD / dynamic TDD technology, configuring at the subband granularity better meets measurement requirements, enabling network devices to obtain timely transmission status on one or several subbands.
[0159] In this application, if the subband configuration method is to obtain several subbands by evenly dividing the broadband, it has better simplicity, is easy to implement, reduces complexity, and improves communication efficiency. If the subband configuration method is to obtain several subbands by unevenly dividing the broadband, it has higher flexibility and adaptability, supporting flexible configuration of measurement resources / reporting configuration based on communication needs and broadband conditions, thereby helping network devices to more flexibly obtain transmission conditions on a certain portion of frequency domain resources and more flexibly adjust scheduling strategies.
[0160] In some embodiments, the second information and the third information are carried in the same signal, or the second information and the third information are carried in different signals.
[0161] Step 510 is an optional step.
[0162] Step 520: Send a first request, where the first request is used to request the network device to send first information.
[0163] In some embodiments, the UE sends the first request upon receiving the second information and / or the third information.
[0164] In some embodiments, the UE sends a first request when it desires to report a measurement report.
[0165] In some embodiments, if a CSI measurement result satisfies a first condition, the UE sends a first request. The CSI measurement result satisfying the first condition includes: the downlink signal measurement result being less than a first threshold; or the downlink signal measurement result being equal to the first threshold. The first threshold is defined by a communication protocol, configured by a network device, or autonomously determined by the UE.
[0166] In some embodiments, the downlink signal measurement result includes at least one of the following: a signal strength indicator value of the downlink signal, a channel quality indicator value of the downlink signal, and a second SINR of the downlink signal. The second SINR is obtained based on the measurement resource configuration of the CSI. Exemplarily, the signal strength indicator value of the downlink signal includes the RSSI of the downlink signal. Exemplarily, the channel quality indicator value of the downlink signal includes the CQI of the downlink signal.
[0167] It should be noted that the downlink signal measurement result may be a single measurement result, or an average value / maximum value / minimum value / median value of multiple measurement results.
[0168] In some embodiments, the first condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the first condition is configured by reportConfigType. Exemplarily, the network device configures reportConfigType for the UE as an event-triggered measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration, as well as the first condition.
[0169] In some embodiments, the first request implicitly requests the network device to send the first information, or the first request explicitly requests the network device to send the first information.
[0170] Step 520 is an optional step.
[0171] Step 530: Receive first information, where the first information is used to trigger at least one measurement resource configuration and / or at least one report configuration.
[0172] In some embodiments, the first information triggers different measurement resource configurations and / or reporting configurations by indicating different states. Exemplarily, when the first information indicates a first state, the first information is used to trigger at least one interference information measurement resource configuration and / or at least one interference information reporting configuration; when the first information indicates a second state, the first information is used to trigger at least one CSI measurement resource configuration and / or at least one CSI reporting configuration; when the first information indicates a third state, the first information is used to trigger at least one joint information measurement resource configuration and / or at least one joint information reporting configuration.
[0173] In some embodiments, different first information is designed for different measurement resource configurations / report configurations. Different measurement resource configurations / report configurations are triggered by transmitting different first information, which has better flexibility.
[0174] In some embodiments, the first information can indicate different states by setting the value of a certain field in the first information. This design not only improves the flexibility of the trigger, but also saves the resource overhead of transmitting the trigger information.
[0175] In some embodiments, the network device pre-configures multiple trigger states, and then triggers one or more trigger states through the first information.
[0176] Method 1 for pre-configuring multiple trigger states:
[0177] In some embodiments, the network device pre-configures multiple trigger states through the high-level parameter CSI-AperiodicTriggerState, each trigger state can be associated with one or more report configurations, and each report configuration can be associated with one or more measurement resource configurations. For example, configuration trigger states 1 to N1 are associated with the measurement resource configuration and report configuration of CSI, trigger states N1 to N2 are associated with the measurement resource configuration and report configuration of interference information, and trigger states N2 to N3 are associated with the measurement resource configuration and report configuration of joint information. The trigger state pre-configured by CSI-AperiodicTriggerState includes at least one of the following: a first state, a second state, and a third state. Optionally, multiple trigger states are pre-configured through CSI-AperiodicTriggerState, which is applicable to the case of non-periodic reporting.
[0178] In some embodiments, it is assumed that the number of bits of the first information is N bit , taking the first information as the CSI request field of DCI format 0_1 / 0_2 as an example, the number of bits of the CSI request field is N bit If the number of trigger states configured by the network device through high-level parameters is N3, and Then, first select MAC CE by aperiodic CSI trigger state subset to set at most The trigger state is mapped to the code point of the CSI request field, that is, the MAC CE selects the N3 The UE monitors the CSI request field to determine which triggering states are indicated by the network device.
[0179] Method 2 for pre-configuring multiple trigger states:
[0180] In some embodiments, the network device configures multiple trigger states through the high-level parameter CSI-SemiPersistentOnPUSCH-TriggerStateList, each trigger state can be associated with one or more reporting configurations, and each reporting configuration can be associated with one or more measurement resource configurations (which can be periodic, semi-persistent, or aperiodic). The UE determines the trigger state indicated by the network device by monitoring the first information, that is, the CSI request field of the DCI format 0_1 / 0_2. Optionally, configuring multiple trigger states through CSI-SemiPersistentOnPUSCH-TriggerStateList is applicable to the case of semi-persistent reporting based on PUSCH.
[0181] In some embodiments, the network device configures one or more reportConfigType semiPersistentOnPUCCH report configurations for the UE through RRC layer signaling, and each report configuration may be associated with one or more measurement resource configurations (which may be periodic, semi-persistent, or aperiodic). The UE monitors the first information, i.e., the S of the MAC CE. i The UE can be configured with one or more reportConfigType semiPersistentOnPUCCH report configurations through RRC layer signaling, which are applicable to the case of semi-persistent reporting based on PUCCH.
[0182] When the first information indicates the third state, that is, triggering the reporting configuration of the joint information, there may be the following two methods:
[0183] Mode 1: In some embodiments, the third state is associated with a joint information reporting configuration, where the joint information reporting configuration is associated with: at least one CSI measurement resource configuration and / or at least one interference information measurement resource configuration. The UE obtains the joint information based on the two measurement resource configurations and reports a joint information measurement report based on the joint information reporting configuration. Exemplarily, the joint information is a concatenated result of the CSI measurement result and the interference information measurement result. Exemplarily, the joint information is an SINR calculated based on the CSI measurement result and the interference information measurement result.
[0184] Mode 2: In some embodiments, the third state is associated with: a CSI reporting configuration and an interference information reporting configuration. The CSI reporting configuration is associated with one or more CSI measurement resource configurations, and the interference information reporting configuration is associated with one or more interference information measurement resource configurations. The UE obtains CSI measurement results and interference information measurement results based on the two measurement resource configurations, respectively. The UE reports CSI measurement reports and interference information measurement reports, respectively, based on the two reporting configurations. The combination of the CSI measurement report and the interference information measurement report can be regarded as a joint information measurement report, that is, the joint information measurement report includes the CSI measurement results and the interference information measurement results.
[0185] In some embodiments, the first information includes at least one measurement resource configuration and / or at least one report configuration. The measurement resource configuration included in the first information is the measurement resource configuration triggered by the first information, and the report configuration included in the first information is the report configuration triggered by the first information.

[0198] Exemplarily, the network device determines whether to send the first request based on whether frequency domain resources used by the downlink UE overlap with frequency domain resources used by the uplink UE. If the frequency domain resources used by the downlink UE and the uplink UE overlap, the network device sends the first request to trigger the UE to report a measurement report, where the measurement report includes at least one of the following: a CSI measurement report, an interference information measurement report, and a joint information measurement report.
[0199] Step 540: Send a measurement report, where the measurement report includes at least one of the following: an interference information measurement report, a CSI measurement report, and a joint information measurement report.
[0200] In some embodiments, the measurement report is measured according to at least one measurement resource configuration and sent according to at least one reporting configuration.
[0201] In some embodiments, the measurement report is sent by the UE according to the received first information.
[0202] In some embodiments, when the measurement result satisfies the second condition, the UE sends a measurement report; wherein the measurement result includes a CSI measurement result and / or an interference information measurement result.
[0203] In some embodiments, the CSI measurement result satisfies the second condition when at least one of the following conditions is met: the downlink signal measurement result is less than a second threshold; the downlink signal measurement result is equal to the second threshold; the uplink signal measurement result is greater than a third threshold; or the uplink signal measurement result is equal to a third threshold.

The cross-link interference signal strength may be a single measurement result or the average value, maximum value, minimum value, or median value of multiple measurement results.
[0208] For details about the downlink signal measurement results, please refer to step 520 and will not be repeated here or below.
[0209] In some embodiments, the second condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the second condition is configured by reportConfigType. Exemplarily, the network device configures reportConfigType for the UE as an event-triggered measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration, as well as the second condition.
[0210] The following describes the three measurement reports in detail. It should be emphasized that step 540 can send only one of the following three measurement reports, or can send any combination of the following three measurement reports. The embodiment of the present application supports the free combination of various measurement reports.
[0211] (1) Interference information measurement report
[0212] In some embodiments, the measurement report of the interference information includes the measurement result of the interference information. The measurement result of the interference information includes at least one of the following: a cross-link interference signal strength value, an uplink reference signal power value, a cross-link interference signal strength indication information, and an uplink reference signal power indication information. Among them, the cross-link interference signal strength indication information is used to indicate: whether the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than the fifth threshold, or whether the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold. The uplink reference signal power indication information is used to indicate: whether the uplink reference signal power value is less than the sixth threshold, or whether the uplink reference signal power value is greater than the sixth threshold. Among them, the fifth threshold is agreed upon by the communication protocol, or configured by the network device, or determined autonomously by the UE. The sixth threshold is agreed upon by the communication protocol, or configured by the network device, or determined autonomously by the UE.
[0213] In some embodiments, the UE periodically sends first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that: the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than a fifth threshold value, and / or the uplink reference signal power value is less than a sixth threshold value. If the third condition is met, the UE sends the cross-link interference signal strength value and / or the uplink reference signal power value.
[0214] In some embodiments, the UE periodically sends first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate that: the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than a fifth threshold value, and / or the uplink reference signal power value is less than a sixth threshold value. When the third condition is met, the UE sends second indication information, where the second indication information is used to indicate at least one of the following: the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold value, the cross-link interference signal strength value is equal to the fifth threshold value, the uplink reference signal power value is greater than the sixth threshold value, and the uplink reference signal power value is equal to the sixth threshold value.
[0215] Optionally, the UE directly carries the cross-link interference signal strength value in the second indication information to implicitly indicate the relationship between the cross-link interference signal strength value and the fifth threshold. Optionally, the UE directly carries the uplink reference signal power value in the second indication information to implicitly indicate the relationship between the uplink reference signal power value and the sixth threshold.
[0216] Optionally, after sending the second indication information, the UE sends a cross-link interference signal strength value and / or an uplink reference signal power value. The second indication information is used to explicitly indicate: a magnitude relationship between the cross-link interference signal strength value and the fifth threshold, and / or a magnitude relationship between the uplink reference signal power value and the sixth threshold.
[0217] In some embodiments, the second indication information is further used to indicate to the network device that the UE will send a cross-link interference signal strength value and / or an uplink reference signal power value in the next uplink transmission.
[0218] In some embodiments, the second indication information is further used to request the network device to schedule the UE to send the cross-link interference signal strength value and / or the uplink reference signal power value in the next uplink transmission. Optionally, the second indication information is further used to request the network device to schedule more PUSCH resources for the UE so that the UE can send the cross-link interference signal strength value and / or the uplink reference signal power in the next uplink transmission.
[0219] In some embodiments, the UE sends a second request simultaneously with sending the second indication information. The second request is used to request the network device to schedule the UE to send the cross-link interference signal strength value and / or uplink reference signal power in the next uplink transmission. Optionally, the second request is used to request the network device to schedule more PUSCH resources for the UE so that the UE can send the cross-link interference signal strength value and / or uplink reference signal power in the next uplink transmission.
[0220] In some embodiments, the situation where the third condition is satisfied includes at least one of the following: the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold, the cross-link interference signal strength value is equal to the fifth threshold, the uplink reference signal power value is greater than the sixth threshold, and the uplink reference signal power value is equal to the sixth threshold.
[0221] In some embodiments, the third condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the third condition is configured by reportConfigType. Exemplarily, the network device configures reportConfigType for the UE as event-triggered measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration, as well as the third condition.
[0222] In some embodiments, the interference information measurement report is measured within the downlink frequency band used by the UE, or measured within a subband not used by the UE. The downlink frequency band may be the entire downlink frequency band corresponding to the time domain resources used by the UE, or a subband used for downlink transmission within the downlink frequency band corresponding to the time domain resources used by the UE. The subband not used by the UE may be a portion of the downlink frequency band or the entire downlink frequency band.
[0223] In some embodiments, the interference information measurement report is measured within the downlink frequency band used by the UE, and at least part of the frequency domain resources within the downlink frequency band has no downlink transmission. In this case, reference may be made to the configuration for measurement reporting based on CSI-IM. Among them, there may be the following four situations where there is no downlink transmission for at least part of the frequency domain resources within the downlink frequency band: 1) There is no downlink transmission for all frequency domain resources within the downlink frequency band; 2) There is no downlink transmission for one or more sub-bands within the downlink frequency band; 3) There is no downlink transmission for one or more RBs within the downlink frequency band; 4) There is no downlink transmission for one or more resource elements (RE) within the downlink frequency band.
[0224] (2) CSI measurement report
[0225] In some embodiments, the CSI measurement report includes a CSI measurement result. Optionally, the CSI measurement result includes at least one of the following: CQI, RSSI, and SINR.
[0226] In some embodiments, when the CSI measurement result satisfies the fourth condition, the UE obtains the interference information measurement result.
[0227] In some embodiments, when the CSI measurement result satisfies the fourth condition, the UE obtains the measurement result of the joint information.
[0228] The case where the CSI measurement result meets the fourth condition includes at least one of the following: the downlink signal measurement result is less than the seventh threshold; the downlink signal measurement result is equal to the seventh threshold; the uplink signal measurement result is greater than the eighth threshold; the uplink signal measurement result is equal to the eighth threshold.
[0229] In some embodiments, the fourth condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the fourth condition is configured by reportConfigType. Exemplarily, the network device configures reportConfigType for the UE as event-triggered measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration, as well as the fourth condition.
[0230] (3) Measurement report of joint information
[0231] In some embodiments, the measurement report of the joint information includes a measurement result of the joint information. Optionally, the measurement result of the joint information is obtained based on the measurement resource configuration of the joint information, or based on the measurement resource configuration of the interference information and the measurement resource configuration of the CSI. Optionally, the measurement result of the joint information includes a measurement result of the CSI and a measurement result of the interference information. Optionally, the measurement result of the joint information includes a concatenation result of the measurement result of the CSI and the measurement result of the interference information. Optionally, the measurement result of the joint information includes a calculation result of the measurement result of the CSI and the measurement result of the interference information. For example, the measurement result of the joint information includes a first SINR, and the first SINR is obtained based on the measurement resource configuration of the interference information and the measurement resource configuration of the CSI.
[0232] In some embodiments, the measurement report is sent via the PUCCH, or the measurement report is sent via the PUSCH.
[0233] In some embodiments, if no uplink transmission resources are available within a first time period after the UE sends the first request, the UE cancels the reporting triggered by the first information. The available uplink transmission resources may be pre-configured or configured / scheduled by the network device after receiving the first request.
[0234] The UE canceling the reporting triggered by the first information can also be understood as the UE skipping (Skip) the reporting triggered by the first information; it can also be understood as the UE dropping (Drop) the reporting triggered by the first information. In other words, even if the UE obtains a measurement report according to at least one measurement resource configuration, if there are no available uplink transmission resources, the UE will not send the measurement report according to the at least one reporting configuration.
[0235] In some embodiments, if the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information overlap with the transmission resources of other uplink information, the other uplink information is multiplexed into the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information for transmission. That is, in the event of resource overlap / conflict, the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information can be used to transmit measurement reports and other information. The other uplink information includes, for example, Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ)-Acknowledgement (ACK) and / or periodic CSI.
[0236] In some embodiments, if the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information overlap with the transmission resources of other uplink information, the transmission of the other uplink information is abandoned / discarded / cancelled / skipped. In other words, in the case of resource overlap / conflict, the measurement report is sent first. Other uplink information may include: HARQ-ACK and / or periodic CSI.
[0237] Step 540 is an optional step.
[0238] In summary, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application supports triggering measurement configuration and / or report configuration for the UE through the first information, so that the UE can obtain the channel status and / or interference information in a timely manner, thereby reporting the channel status and / or interference information in a timely manner, assisting the network equipment to promptly know the communication status within the system and adjust the scheduling strategy in a timely manner, and ensuring the communication efficiency and reliability within the communication system. In addition, it supports the UE to request the network equipment to send the first information based on the measurement results, and also supports the UE to report autonomously based on the measurement results, which significantly improves the flexibility of the UE side in the measurement reporting process, so that the measurement report reported by the UE more timely and truthfully reflects the actual communication environment within the system.
[0239] The UE may perform all the steps shown in FIG. 5 , that is, all the optional steps shown in FIG. 5 may be used in combination with step 530 .
[0240] The UE may also execute only some of the steps shown in Figure 5. For example, the UE may only execute step 530. For another example, some of the optional steps shown in Figure 5 may be used in combination with step 530 to form configuration methods for various processes. Figures 6 to 8 illustrate three typical combinations as examples, but this does not mean that other configuration processes other than the embodiments shown in Figures 6 to 8 do not fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0241] FIG6 shows a flow chart of a configuration method provided by some exemplary embodiments of the present application. Taking the method as an example, the UE may be implemented as the terminal device 120 and / or the terminal device 130 shown in FIG3 . The method includes at least some of the following steps:
[0242] Step 610: Receive second information, where the second information is used to configure X measurement resource configurations.
[0243] For the relevant contents of the second information and measurement resource configuration, please refer to step 510 and will not be described in detail here.
[0244] Exemplarily, the second information in step 610 is used to configure X measurement resource configurations, including CSI measurement resource configuration.
[0245] Step 610 is an optional step.
[0246] Step 620: When the CSI measurement result meets the first condition, the UE sends a first request.
[0247] In some embodiments, the CSI measurement result is obtained by measuring the CSI measurement resource configuration configured according to the second information in step 610 .
[0248] For the CSI measurement result, the first condition and the related content of the first request, please refer to step 520 and will not be repeated here.
[0249] Exemplarily, the UE is configured with periodic CSI measurement (for example, CSI measurement resource configuration is configured through second information, and the time domain characteristic of the CSI measurement resource configuration is periodic), and the UE periodically obtains CSI measurement results. When the CSI measurement result obtained at a certain time is lower than or equal to the first threshold, the UE considers that the downlink channel quality is poor, and the UE sends a first request to request measurement and reporting of interference information and / or joint information.
[0250] Exemplarily, the UE is configured with periodic CSI measurement, and the UE periodically obtains CSI measurement results. When the CSI measurement results obtained for several consecutive times are all lower than or equal to a first threshold, the UE considers that the downlink channel quality is poor, and the UE sends a first request to request measurement reporting of interference information and / or joint information.
[0251] Exemplarily, the UE is configured with periodic CSI measurement, and the UE periodically obtains CSI measurement results. When the average value (or maximum value, minimum value, or median) of the CSI measurement results obtained for several consecutive times is lower than or equal to a first threshold, the UE considers that the downlink channel quality is poor, and the UE sends a first request to request measurement and reporting of interference information and / or joint information.
[0252] In some embodiments, the first condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the first condition is configured by reportConfigType. Exemplarily, the network device configures reportConfigType for the UE as an event-triggered measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration, as well as the first condition.
[0253] In some embodiments, the first request includes a first sequence. Exemplarily, upon detecting the first sequence, the network device sends first information to the UE to trigger reporting of a measurement report of the interference information and / or joint information. Exemplarily, the first information includes DCI format 0_1 / 0_2.
[0254] In some embodiments, the first sequence is a sequence specifically used to refer to the first request. It can be understood that the first sequence is different from the existing sequence, that is, the first sequence is a newly defined sequence.
[0255] In some embodiments, the first sequence is a cyclic shift sequence of an existing sequence. Circular shift is to circularly shift the values in the sequence. There are two common cyclic shifts: cyclic left shift and cyclic right shift. Among them, cyclic left shift is to put the shifted high bit to the low bit of the sequence, and cyclic right shift is to put the shifted low bit to the high bit of the sequence. The number of bits or bits shifted out by a cyclic shift is called the cyclic offset or cyclic shift amount of the cyclic shift, and the sequence obtained by the cyclic shift can be called a cyclic shift sequence. Therefore, by defining a new cyclic offset for the first sequence, the new cyclic offset can be used to obtain the first sequence. For example, define a new m cs The first request includes the first sequence.
[0256] In some embodiments, the first request is sent alone, or the first request is multiplexed with other uplink information (such as HARQ-ACK, periodic CSI).
[0257] In some embodiments, the first request is sent on the PUCCH or PUSCH.
[0258] Step 630: Receive first information, where the first information is used to trigger at least one of the following: at least one interference information measurement resource configuration, at least one interference information reporting configuration, at least one joint information measurement resource configuration, and at least one joint information reporting configuration.
[0259] For the relevant content of the first information, please refer to step 530 and will not be repeated here.
[0260] Step 640: Send a measurement report of interference information and / or a measurement report of joint information.
[0261] In some embodiments, if no uplink transmission resources are available within a first time period after the UE sends the first request, the UE cancels the reporting triggered by the first information. The available uplink transmission resources may be pre-configured or configured / scheduled by the network device after receiving the first request. Exemplary uplink transmission resources include DCI-scheduled PUSCH transmission resources or configured grant (CG) PUSCH transmission resources.
[0262] In some embodiments, if the transmission resources of the interference information measurement report or the joint information measurement report overlap with the transmission resources of other uplink information (such as the transmission resources of periodic CSI reporting and HARQ-ACK reporting), the other uplink information is multiplexed into the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information for transmission. In other words, in the case of resource overlap / conflict, the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information can be used to transmit the measurement report and other information.
[0263] In some embodiments, if the transmission resources of the interference information measurement report or the joint information measurement report overlap with the transmission resources of other uplink information (such as the transmission resources of periodic CSI reporting and HARQ-ACK reporting), a portion of the other uplink information is multiplexed into the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information for transmission, and another portion of the other uplink information is discarded (such as the CQI). That is, in the case of resource overlap / conflict, the transmission resources in the report configuration triggered by the first information can be used to transmit the measurement report and part of the other information.
[0264] In some embodiments, if the transmission resources of the interference information measurement report or the joint information measurement report overlap with the transmission resources of other uplink information (such as the transmission resources of periodic CSI reporting and HARQ-ACK reporting), the other uplink information is discarded. In other words, in the case of resource overlap / conflict, the measurement report is sent first, and the transmission of other uplink information is abandoned / discarded / cancelled / skipped.
[0265] In some embodiments, the UE reports specific measurement results at a broadband or subband granularity, such as at least one of the following: a cross-link interference signal strength value, an uplink reference signal power value, a downlink signal signal strength indication value, and a downlink signal channel quality indication value.
[0266] In some embodiments, the UE first reports the indication information using a small amount of resources, and then reports a specific value based on preconfigured resources or additional requested resources when the third condition is met. For example, the UE first periodically reports cross-link interference signal strength indication information and / or uplink reference signal power indication information via a bitmap. When the third condition is met, the UE then reports a specific measurement result, such as at least one of the following: a cross-link interference signal strength value, an uplink reference signal power value, a downlink signal signal strength indication value, and a downlink signal channel quality indicator value.
[0267] In some embodiments, the first request may be sent by the UE after performing CSI measurement and confirming that its channel quality is lower than a certain threshold. The first request is used to request sending first information for triggering reporting of CSI and / or interference information and / or joint information.
[0268] For the relevant content of the measurement report, please refer to step 540, which will not be described in detail here. Step 640 is an optional step.
[0269] In summary, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application supports the UE to determine whether it is necessary to measure and report interference information based on the measurement results of CSI, that is, it supports the UE to autonomously request the network device to send the measurement resource configuration and / or report configuration of the interference information according to the communication status of the downlink channel, thereby improving the flexibility of the measurement and reporting of the interference information. The measurement and reporting of the interference information can be considered to be based on triggering, which saves measurement resources and transmission resources within the communication system, and does not require the UE to periodically monitor the interference information for a long time. While having high efficiency and flexibility, it also has the effect of saving overhead. In addition, the UE can report the measurement results of only the interference information, or it can report the measurement results of the joint information, which improves the reporting flexibility.
[0270] FIG7 shows a flow chart of a configuration method provided by some exemplary embodiments of the present application. Taking the method as an example, the UE may be implemented as the terminal device 120 and / or the terminal device 130 shown in FIG3 . The method includes at least some of the following steps:

[0277] Optionally, before receiving the first information, the UE further sends a first request to the network device. For details about the first request, refer to steps 520 and 620, which will not be described in detail here.
[0278] Step 730: When the CSI measurement result satisfies the fourth condition, obtain the interference information measurement result and / or the joint information measurement result.
[0279] In some embodiments, the fourth condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the fourth condition is configured by reportConfigType. Exemplarily, the network device configures reportConfigType for the UE as event-triggered measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration, as well as the fourth condition.
[0280] If the CSI measurement result satisfies the fourth condition, please refer to step 540, which will not be described again here.
[0281] Step 740: Send a measurement report of interference information and / or a measurement report of joint information.
[0282] For the relevant content of the measurement report, please refer to step 540 and step 640, which will not be described in detail here. Step 740 is an optional step.
[0283] In summary, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application supports the UE to determine whether it is necessary to measure the interference information based on the measurement results of the CSI, that is, it supports the UE to autonomously obtain the measurement results of the interference information according to the measurement resource configuration based on the communication status of the downlink channel. After obtaining the measurement results of the interference information, the UE can report the measurement results of only the interference information, or report the measurement results of the joint information. The measurement reporting of the interference information is highly flexible. The measurement reporting of the interference information can be considered to be trigger-based, saving measurement resources and transmission resources within the communication system. Since there is no need for the UE to periodically monitor the interference information for a long time, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application is highly efficient and flexible while also saving overhead.

[0294] In some embodiments, the second condition is configured by the network device via RRC signaling. For example, the second condition is configured by reportConfigType.

[0295] In summary, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application supports the UE to determine whether it is necessary to measure the interference information based on the measurement results of the CSI, that is, it supports the UE to autonomously obtain the measurement results of the interference information according to the measurement resource configuration based on the communication status of the downlink channel. After obtaining the measurement results of the interference information, the UE can report the measurement results of only the interference information, or report the measurement results of the joint information. The measurement reporting of the interference information is highly flexible. The measurement reporting of the interference information can be considered to be trigger-based, saving measurement resources and transmission resources within the communication system. Since there is no need for the UE to periodically monitor the interference information for a long time, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application is highly efficient and flexible while also saving overhead.
[0296] FIG9 shows a flow chart of a configuration method provided by some exemplary embodiments of the present application. Taking the method as an example, the method is performed by a network device, which can be implemented as the network device 110 shown in FIG3. The method includes at least some of the following steps:

After obtaining the measurement results of the interference information, the UE can report the measurement results of only the interference information, or report the measurement results of the joint information. The measurement reporting of the interference information is highly flexible. The measurement reporting of the interference information can be considered to be trigger-based, saving measurement resources and transmission resources within the communication system. Since there is no need for the UE to periodically monitor the interference information for a long time, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application is highly efficient and flexible while also saving overhead.
[0350] Next, it is further introduced how to adopt the methods provided by the above embodiments in different interference environments. Taking the periodic measurement resource configuration and periodic report configuration triggered by the network device as an example, combined with the four interference scenarios shown in Figure 14, it is introduced how to perform measurement and reporting in different interference scenarios. Exemplarily, the network device sets the resourceType (resource type) and reportConfigType (report configuration type) of the CSI-MeasConfig IE through RRC signaling, both of which are periodic CSI / interference information measurement and reporting. It should be noted that Figure 14 is a schematic illustration of an example of a bandwidth divided into 3 sub-bands. In fact, it is entirely possible to divide it into other numbers of sub-bands, and it can be evenly divided or unevenly divided. Figure 14 is only an example and not a limitation.
[0351] In (1) of Figure 14, the downlink frequency domain resources completely overlap with the uplink frequency domain resources. In (2), (3), and (4) of Figure 14, the downlink frequency domain resources do not completely overlap with the uplink frequency domain resources. For the case of incomplete overlap, the following three characteristics may exist: 1) The division of the downlink sub-band and the uplink sub-band may not be uniform, that is, the number of RBs occupied by sub-band 1, sub-band 2, and sub-band 3 in the figure may be different; 2) CSI-RS will only be transmitted within the downlink frequency domain resources, and the downlink UE's measurement based on CSI-RS will only be performed within the downlink frequency domain resources; 3) Uplink reference signals will only be transmitted within the uplink frequency domain resources, and the downlink UE's measurement based on uplink reference signals will only be performed within the overlapping range of the downlink frequency domain resources and the uplink frequency domain resources.
[0352] (1) Interference scenario where downlink frequency domain resources completely overlap with uplink frequency domain resources
[0353] In the interference scenario shown in (1) of Figure 14, the downlink frequency domain resources completely overlap with the uplink frequency domain resources. Based on the fifth threshold preconfigured by the network device, the UE only needs to periodically occupy one bit in the PUCCH to indicate or use a certain sequence to indicate whether the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold.
[0354] If the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than the fifth threshold, the UE sends a first indication message. For example, the first indication message indicates that the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than the fifth threshold by setting the bit occupied in the PUCCH to a first value (such as 0 or 1). For another example, the first indication message uses sequence A1 to indicate that the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than the fifth threshold. For another example, a sequence B1 is generated according to the cyclic shift indication information, and the first indication message uses sequence B1 to indicate that the cross-link interference signal strength value is less than the fifth threshold.
[0355] Once the UE measures that the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold, the UE sends a second indication message. For example, the second indication message indicates that the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold by setting the bit occupied in the PUCCH to a second value (such as 1 or 0, the second value is different from the first value). For another example, the second indication message uses sequence A2 to indicate that the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold. For another example, sequence B2 is generated according to the cyclic shift indication information, and the second indication message uses sequence B2 to indicate that the cross-link interference signal strength value is greater than the fifth threshold.
[0356] Optionally, both the measurement resource configuration and the reporting configuration of the interference information are configured with broadband as the granularity.
[0357] Optionally, the interference information measurement resource configuration and / or reporting configuration is configured at a subband granularity. In this case, the subbands may be evenly divided, i.e., different subbands occupy the same number of RBs. If the interference information reporting configuration is configured at a subband granularity, the UE may indicate the interference signal strength of each subband in the form of a bitmap based on a fifth threshold preconfigured by the network device, i.e., report the interference information measurement results for each subband in the form of a bitmap.
[0358] In some embodiments, the second indication information is further used to inform the network device that the UE will report specific measurement results in the next PUCCH transmission opportunity; or that the UE will use more resources to report specific measurement results in the next PUCCH transmission opportunity. Specific measurement results may include, for example, cross-link interference signal strength values and / or uplink reference signal power values. Exemplarily, the resources and reporting rules used by the UE to report specific measurement results have been preconfigured by the network device or agreed upon by the communication protocol.
[0359] In some embodiments, while sending the second indication information, the UE also sends a second request for requesting the network device to schedule more PUSCH resources for the UE so that the UE can send a cross-link interference signal strength value and / or an uplink reference signal power in the next uplink transmission.
[0360] (2) Interference scenario where downlink frequency domain resources do not completely overlap with uplink frequency domain resources, and uplink frequency domain resources completely cover downlink frequency domain resources
[0361] Figure 14 (2) shows the measurement and reporting of CSI in an interference scenario:
[0362] 1. CSI measurement and reporting can be based on the transmission of CSI-RS signals. For example, a single RSRP value can be calculated at the broadband granularity to indicate the overall received signal power of the downlink frequency domain resources. Another example is the RSRP value calculated at the subband granularity for two downlink subbands to indicate the received signal power of each downlink subband.
[0363] 2. The measurement and reporting of CSI can be based on CSI-IM resources. That is, no downlink signal is sent in the downlink frequency domain resources, and the UE calculates the RSSI of the interference signal and noise in the downlink frequency domain resources where no downlink transmission is performed. Alternatively, the UE calculates the RSSI of the interference signal and noise in the downlink frequency domain resources where no downlink transmission is performed, and combines it with the RSRP obtained by measuring the CSI-RS resources to jointly calculate the SINR. Alternatively, the UE calculates the RSSI of the interference signal and noise in the downlink frequency domain resources where no downlink transmission is performed, and combines it with the RSRP obtained by measuring the CSI-RS resources to obtain the CQI. The above-mentioned RSSI, RSRP, SINR and CQI can be calculated with broadband as the granularity or with sub-band as the granularity, and there is no limitation on this.
[0364] Figure 14 (2) shows the measurement and reporting of interference information in the interference scenario:
[0365] Taking into account that only measuring the RSRP of the interference signal within the downlink frequency domain resources can truly reflect the degree of cross-link interference, one implementation method is: the measurement resources of the uplink reference signal can be defined only within the downlink frequency domain resources of the downlink UE. If the interference signal is SRS as an example, the SRS measurement resources can be defined only within the downlink subband 1 and subband 3 occupied by the downlink UE. The UE measures the RSRP of the SRS within subband 1 and subband 3. In addition, the UE can calculate one RSRP value with the broadband as the granularity to indicate the overall cross-link interference degree of the downlink frequency domain resources, or calculate the SRS-RSRP values corresponding to the two downlink subbands with the subband as the granularity to indicate the cross-link interference degree of each of the two downlink subbands.
[0366] Another implementation approach is to consider that measuring the RSRP of the interference signal in subband 2 can also reflect the degree of cross-link interference to a certain extent, and can also identify which uplink UE is interfering with the downlink UE. Without deducting the SRS measurement resources from the downlink frequency domain resources for measurement and calculation, this implementation approach can improve measurement efficiency and downlink transmission efficiency. Therefore, the SRS measurement resources can be defined only in subband 2, and the UE performs SRS measurement in subband 2 to obtain the measurement results of the interference information.
[0367] Another implementation method is to perform measurements and reports within the downlink UE bandwidth resources according to the uplink UE bandwidth resource configuration. For example, similar CSI-IM measurement resources and CSI-IM reporting configurations can be used to measure and report interference information at a wideband or subband granularity.
[0368] (3) Interference scenario where downlink frequency domain resources do not completely overlap with uplink frequency domain resources, and downlink frequency domain resources completely cover uplink frequency domain resources
[0369] In the interference scenario shown in (3) of Figure 14, the UE's CSI can be measured and reported at a broadband or subband granularity based on the full bandwidth resource configuration. In other words, the UE measures CSI at a broadband or subband granularity for all downlink frequency bands and reports CSI at a broadband or subband granularity.
[0370] Regarding UE interference information reporting, since the overlapping resources of uplink and downlink UEs are only subband 2, SRS resources can be configured only in subband 2 to facilitate UE to obtain the measurement result of the interference information on subband 2.
[0371] Considering the uncertainty of uplink subband resource configuration, the uplink subband has different impacts on different parts of the downlink bandwidth. Therefore, for the interference scenario shown in (3) of Figure 14, a subband-based reporting method is preferred. This allows the UE and network equipment to clearly identify which downlink subbands have poor transmission quality and which downlink subbands have the highest degree of interference from the uplink subbands, thereby accurately adjusting the scheduling strategy.
[0372] (4) Downlink frequency domain resources and uplink frequency domain resources do not overlap at all
[0373] In the interference scenario shown in (4) of FIG. 14 , the measurement and reporting of the UE's CSI may refer to the method provided in (2) of FIG. 14 .
[0374] As for the measurement and reporting of interference information, since there are no overlapping resources between uplink and downlink UEs, even if SRS measurements are performed in subband 2, it cannot truly reflect the degree of cross-link interference between uplink and downlink UEs. This measurement can only be used to identify users in the surrounding area that may be subject to significant interference. Therefore, in the interference scenario shown in (4) of Figure 14, the interference information measurement results that the UE can obtain are at most used to make the UE and network equipment clear about the current cross-link interference, but it is difficult to determine the specific degree of interference and which subbands have the most severe cross-link interference.
