[0052] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of this application, the full-duplex mode related to this application will be described.
[0053] In 5G mobile communication systems, full-duplex communication has been enhanced to adapt to diverse scenarios and service requirements. Key 5G scenarios include Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communication (URLLC), and Massive Machine-Type Communication (mMTC). These scenarios place demands on the system to achieve high reliability, low latency, high bandwidth, and wide coverage.
[0054] In NR, configuring full-duplex operation can significantly improve the latency and coverage performance of Time Division Duplex (TDD) systems. Specifically, configuring subband non-overlapping full duplex mode allows simultaneous uplink and downlink transmission and reception or transmission and reception on non-overlapping subband resources within a single carrier bandwidth. Because the uplink and downlink subbands do not overlap, self-interference is reduced, thus lowering transmission latency and enhancing coverage.
[0055] For a downlink (DL) slot, the network configures the downlink (DL) bandwidth part (BWP) for the UE (configured by the TDD-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or TDD-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated), as shown in slot 1 of Figure 2; for an uplink (UL) slot, the network configures the UL BWP for the UE (configured by the TDD-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or TDD-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated), as shown in slot 4 of Figure 3.
[0056] For a downlink time slot (DL slot) (configured by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated), in a full duplex scenario, as shown in Figure 2, the following cases exist:
[0057] Case 1: Configure DL BWP, such as slot 1;
[0058] Case 2: Configure DL BWP and uplink subband (UL subband), such as slot 2.
[0059] For an uplink timeslot (UL slot) (configured by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated), in a full duplex scenario, as shown in Figure 3, the following case exists:
[0060] Case 3: Configure UL BWP, such as in slot 4;
[0061] Case 4: Configure UL BWP and downlink subband (DL subband), such as slot 5.
[0062] For sub-band full duplex (SBFD) operation, an SBFD subband consists of one resource block (RB) or a continuous set of RBs with the same transmission direction.
[0063] The time unit (e.g., slot or symbol) used by gNB for SBFD operations can be referred to as the SBFD time unit (e.g., slot or symbol).
[0064] An exemplary duplex mode is as follows: The network side operates in full-duplex mode, where uplink and downlink transmissions can occur simultaneously at different frequency domain locations. To avoid interference between uplink and downlink, a certain guard band (GB) is reserved between the frequency domain locations corresponding to different transmission directions (corresponding to duplex sub-bands). The terminal side operates in half-duplex mode, consistent with TDD, where only uplink or downlink transmission can occur at any given time; the two cannot occur simultaneously. It is understandable that in this duplex mode, the network side's uplink and downlink transmissions at the same time can only be performed for different terminals.
[0065] Another exemplary duplex mode is: both the terminal side and the network side are full-duplex, as shown in Figure 4. That is, both the terminal side and the network side work in full-duplex mode. Specifically, for the terminal side and the network side, at the same time, uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) transmissions can be performed simultaneously at different frequency domain locations.
[0066] For full-duplex UE-side applications, a larger GB (greater than the base station frequency division (FD) GB) may be required to suppress self-interference, as shown in Figure 5.
[0067] For a communication device, simultaneous UL reception and DL transmission can cause self-interference. To ensure transmission in the direction of interference, the communication device needs to have self-interference cancellation capabilities, such as reserving a guard band between the receive and transmit bands. However, this will reduce the throughput of the UE.
[0068] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of this application, the TDD pattern related to this application will be described.
[0069] When NR cells are deployed on asymmetric spectrum, TDD duplex mode is generally used. In this case, tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon can be configured in the cell common parameters to indicate TDD frame structure information, including the TDD frame period, the number of complete downlink / uplink slots contained in a single frame period, and the number of additional downlink / uplink symbols contained in addition to the complete downlink / uplink slots. Optionally, tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated can be configured independently for each terminal using Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling. This is used to further modify the uplink and downlink Symbol configuration of one or more slots within a single frame period based on tdd-UL-DL-ConfigCommon. (That is, the initial value of the uplink and downlink Symbol configuration of the slot is specified by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigCommon and then further modified by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigDedicated. This modification only applies to the terminal receiving this RRC signaling.) However, the modification here is limited to further indicating the flexible symbol (i.e., the transmission direction is not specified, and it can be determined later as needed whether it is used for downlink or uplink transmission) in the slot as a DL / UL symbol. The DL / UL symbol in the slot cannot be modified to other directions.
[0070] The above tdd-UL-DL-ConfigCommon and / or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigDedicated are optional configurations. Since these configuration information can only be semi-statically configured / modified based on information from the RRC layer, each Symbol within a single TDD frame period determined by these configuration information (in conjunction with its configured transmission direction) can also be referred to as a semi-static downlink / uplink / flexible symbol.
[0071] When tdd-UL-DL-ConfigCommon and tdd-UL-DL-ConfigDedicated are not configured, there is no explicit concept of TDD frame period. In this case, each slot / symbol in each radio frame of the NR cell can be understood as a semi-static flexible slot / symbol.
[0072] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of this application, the cell discontinuous transmission (DTX) / discontinuous reception (DRX) related to this application will be described.
[0073] The main energy-saving concept of Cell DTX / DRX is to align the DRX on-duration periods of different terminals, which are staggered in the time domain, to achieve DTX / DRX. This allows the cell to disable some or all of the base station's signal transmission and reception, or to shut down certain base station devices, during the aligned DTX / DRX off-duration (inactive period), thus achieving energy savings. There are two potential implementation methods for Cell DTX / DRX: one is explicit Cell DTX / DRX configuration, considering how it works in conjunction with UE DRX; the other is for the base station to reconfigure the DRX of different UEs to achieve time-domain alignment.
[0074] If Cell DTX / DRX is explicitly configured, it must include at least the parameters periodicity, start slot / offset, and on duration. Cell DTX / DRX can be activated dynamically via L1 / L2 signaling or RRC signaling.
[0075] Cell DTX configuration and Cell DRX configuration can be configured together or separately.
[0076] A basic DRX cycle is shown in Figure 6. The DRX cycle consists of an On Duration and an Opportunity for DRX (or Inactive Duration): During the On Duration, the UE listens to the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH); during the Opportunity for DRX, the UE does not listen to the PDCCH to save power.
[0077] In addition, as shown in Figure 7, the network side can configure an inactivity timer. If a new PDCCH is received within the On Duration, the inactivity timer will be started or restarted to extend the duration for which the UE listens to the PDCCH.
[0078] In some scenarios, adding DRX configuration, while bringing energy savings, also increases data packet transmission latency. As shown in Figure 8, if a data packet arrives during Opportunity for DRX, the terminal needs to wait for the On Duration period before transmitting the data packet, increasing the data packet transmission latency. In this case, if the terminal is still in full-duplex transmission mode, it will lead to a decrease in resource utilization and an increase in unnecessary power consumption.
[0079] The wireless communication method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through some embodiments and application scenarios.
[0080] Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of a wireless communication method provided in an embodiment of this application. As shown in Figure 9, the method 200 includes at least the following:

[0083] For example, the terminal can determine the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource based on the activation status of the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0084] The transmission mode in this application embodiment may include the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device, such as the full-duplex transmission mode or the half-duplex transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device, or it may include the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal side, such as the full-duplex mode or the half-duplex transmission mode corresponding to the terminal side.
[0085] It should be understood that the embodiments of this application that determine the transmission mode can be used to determine the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device, or it can be used to determine the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal side, or it can be used to determine the transmission mode corresponding to both the network-side device and the terminal side. For example, in method 200, the terminal can determine the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device, or it can also determine the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal side. In method 300 below, the network-side device can determine the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device, or it can also be used to determine the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal side.

[0090] In the embodiments of this application, the discontinuous transmit / receive mode may include at least one of Cell DTX, Cell DRX, UE DTX, and UE DRX.
[0091] The following explanation uses Cell DTX mode and Cell DRX mode as examples. The implementation principles of other DTX and DRX modes are similar, and for the sake of simplicity, they will not be elaborated here.
[0092] The cell described in the embodiments of this application can also be a cell group, frequency layer, tracking area (TA) region, TRP, etc., and this application does not limit it in this way.
[0093] In the embodiments of this application, activating DTX mode or DRX mode means that DTX mode or DRX mode is in an active state (active time); deactivating DTX mode or DRX mode means that DTX mode or DRX mode is in an inactive state (non-active time). Activation time can also be expressed as activation period, activation duration, on duration, on state, or on time; non-active time can also be expressed as non-active period, non-active duration, offduration, off state, or off time, etc.
[0094] The enhanced duplex, enhanced duplex mode, cross duplex (XDD), enhanced full duplex, enhanced full duplex mode, full duplex, subband full duplex, and full duplex transmission mode described in the embodiments of this application can represent a concept.
[0095] The full-duplex transmission mode described in this application embodiment can be a full-duplex transmission mode on the network side or the terminal side.
[0096] The time domain type in the embodiments of this application can also be a time domain format, a full-duplex subband format, a full-duplex subband type, etc., including at least one of the following:
[0097] The time-domain type indicated by TDD-UL-DL-Configuration, such as DL, UL, Flexible;
[0098] Enhance the time-domain type of the duplex configuration indication, such as Full Duplex Downlink (Full DL), Full Duplex Uplink (Full UL), SBFD X (indicating the inclusion of both uplink and downlink subband resources).
[0099] The time-domain type or time-domain format described in the embodiments of this application can be a time-domain type or time-domain format on the network side or the terminal side.
[0100] In some embodiments, the first indication information may indicate at least one DTX mode and at least one DRX mode, wherein the number of the at least one DTX mode and the number of the at least one DRX mode may be the same or different.
[0101] In other embodiments, the first indication information may indicate only at least one DTX mode or at least one DRX mode.
[0102] It should be understood that this application does not limit the signaling that carries the first indication information. For example, the first indication information can be carried by at least one of the following: broadcast message, RRC message, Media Access Control Element (MAC CE), or Downlink Control Information (DCI).
[0103] In some embodiments, the first time-domain resource may include at least one time unit, which may be, for example, a slot, a symbol, or a subframe, or it may be a millisecond (ms), a second (s), or a microsecond (us).
[0104] In some embodiments, the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode includes DTX mode and DRX mode, and the first time domain resource includes at least one of the following:
[0105] The time period in which both DTX mode and DRX mode are active;
[0106] The time period in which the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is active.
[0107] The time period in which the DTX mode is active and the DRX mode is inactive.
[0108] Both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are in an inactive time zone.
[0109] In some embodiments of this application, the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode includes DTX mode and DRX mode. The terminal determines the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode, including at least one of the following:
[0110] If both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are active, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource is determined to be the full-duplex transmission mode.
[0111] If the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is active, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource is determined to be either full-duplex transmission mode or half-duplex transmission mode.
[0112] If the DTX mode is active and the DRX mode is inactive, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource is determined to be either full-duplex transmission mode or half-duplex transmission mode.
[0113] If the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is inactive, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be either full-duplex or half-duplex transmission mode.
[0114] Scenario 1: Both DTX mode and DRX mode are active.
[0115] The first time domain resource may include a time region in which both DTX mode and DRX mode are active. In this case, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be determined to be full-duplex transmission mode.
[0116] For example, if the network-side device supports full-duplex transmission mode and the terminal supports full-duplex mode, when both DTX mode and DRX mode are active, the network-side device can perform uplink and downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can perform downlink and uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be determined to be full-duplex transmission mode, which is beneficial to improving resource utilization and ensuring the service transmission performance of the terminal.
[0117] Case 2: The DTX mode is inactive, while the DRX mode is active.
[0118] The first time domain resource may include a time region where DTX mode is inactive and DRX mode is active. In this case, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be determined to be half-duplex transmission mode.
[0119] For example, if the network-side device supports full-duplex transmission mode and the terminal supports full-duplex mode, when the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is active, since the DTX mode is inactive, the network-side device can perform uplink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can perform uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be determined to be half-duplex transmission mode, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization, reduce unnecessary power consumption, and ensure the energy saving of the terminal.
[0120] Case 3: DTX mode is active, and DRX mode is inactive.
[0121] The first time-domain resource may include a time region where DTX mode is active and DRX mode is inactive. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be DL.
[0122] For example, if the network-side device supports full-duplex transmission mode and the terminal supports full-duplex mode, when DTX mode is active and DRX mode is inactive, since DRX mode is inactive, the network-side device can only perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be determined to be half-duplex transmission mode, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization, reduce unnecessary power consumption, and ensure the energy saving of the terminal.
[0123] Scenario 4: The DTX mode is inactive, and the DRX mode is also inactive.
[0124] The first time domain resource may include the time region where both DTX mode and DRX mode are inactive. In this case, the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be determined to be half-duplex transmission mode, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization and reduce unnecessary power consumption.
[0125] In this case, since both DRX and DTX modes are inactive, the network-side device is in a state of neither sending nor receiving on the first time domain resource. Under these circumstances, the terminal can assume that it can receive downlink signals or send uplink signals. Therefore, it can be determined that the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource is half-duplex transmission mode, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization, reduce unnecessary power consumption, and ensure the energy saving of the terminal.
[0126] In some embodiments of this application, S220 can also be replaced with:
[0127] The terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0128] In some embodiments, the method 200 may include:
[0129] The terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0130] In some embodiments, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource includes at least one of the following:
[0131] Uplink (UL);
[0132] Downlink (DL);
[0133] Enhanced duplex (XDD, abbreviated as X);
[0134] Flexible.
[0135] In some embodiments, when the time domain type of the first time domain resource is uplink, downlink, or flexible, the transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be considered as half-duplex transmission mode; when the time domain type of the first time domain resource is enhanced duplex, the transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be considered as full-duplex transmission mode.
[0136] In some embodiments, when the time domain type of the first time domain resource is uplink, the transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be considered as half-duplex transmission mode and the transmission direction is uplink. When the time domain type of the first time domain resource is downlink, the transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be considered as half-duplex transmission mode and the transmission direction is downlink. When the time domain type of the first time domain resource is flexible, the transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be considered as half-duplex transmission mode and the transmission direction is downlink or uplink. When the time domain type of the first time domain resource is enhanced duplex, the transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource can be considered as full-duplex transmission mode.
[0137] Optionally, the aforementioned time domain type can correspond to the time domain type of the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device, such as the cell-specific TDD time domain type or SBFD time domain type, or it can correspond to the time domain type of the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal side, such as the UE-specific TDD time domain type or UE SBFD time domain type.
[0138] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one DTX / DRX mode, which can also be expressed as:
[0139] The terminal determines the time domain format of the first time domain resource, such as UL, DL, X, or Flexible, based on the at least one DTX / DRX mode.
[0140] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, including:
[0141] The time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined based on the activation state of the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode.
[0142] Optionally, the activation state of the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode may be indicated by the first indication information, or it may be indicated by other indication information, which is not limited in this application.
[0143] For example, when the network-side device indicates the at least one DTX / DRX mode through the first indication information, it can simultaneously indicate the activation status of the at least one DTX / DRX mode. Alternatively, when the network-side device indicates the at least one DTX / DRX mode through the first indication information, it can further indicate the activation status of the at least one DTX / DRX mode through the fifth indication information.
[0144] Optionally, the first indication information can be carried by semi-static signaling (e.g., RRC message), and the fifth indication information can be carried by dynamic signaling (e.g., DCI).
[0145] In some embodiments, the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode includes DTX mode and DRX mode, and determining the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the activation state of the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode includes at least one of the following:
[0146] If both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are active, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be enhanced duplex.
[0147] If the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is active, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be UL, enhanced duplex, or flexible.
[0148] If the DTX mode is active and the DRX mode is inactive, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be DL, enhanced duplex, or flexible.
[0149] If the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is inactive, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be UL, DL, enhanced duplex, or flexible.
[0150] Case 1: Both DTX mode and DRX mode are active.
[0151] The first time-domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are active. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be X.
[0152] For example, if the network-side equipment supports full-duplex transmission mode and the terminal supports full-duplex mode, the network-side equipment can perform uplink and downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can perform downlink and uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined as X, and the terminal and the network-side equipment can perform uplink and downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, which is beneficial to improving resource utilization and ensuring the service transmission performance of the terminal.
[0153] Case 2: The DTX mode is inactive, while the DRX mode is active.
[0154] The first time-domain resource may include a time region where DTX mode is inactive and DRX mode is active. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be UL.
[0155] For example, if the network-side device supports full-duplex transmission mode and the terminal supports full-duplex mode, but because the DTX mode is inactive, the network-side device can only perform uplink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can also perform uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be UL, and thus the terminal can perform uplink transmission on this first time domain resource, and the network-side device can also perform uplink transmission on this first time domain resource. This is beneficial to improving resource utilization, reducing unnecessary power consumption, and ensuring energy saving of the terminal.
[0156] Case 3: DTX mode is active, and DRX mode is inactive.
[0157] The first time-domain resource may include a time region where DTX mode is active and DRX mode is inactive. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be DL.
[0158] For example, if the network-side device supports full-duplex transmission mode and the terminal supports full-duplex mode, but the DRX mode is inactive, the network-side device can only perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can also perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be DL, and thus the network-side device can perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal can also perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource. This is beneficial to improving resource utilization, reducing unnecessary power consumption, and ensuring energy saving of the terminal.
[0159] Case 4: The DTX mode is inactive, and the DRX mode is also inactive.
[0160] The first time-domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are inactive. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be DL or UL.
[0161] In this scenario, since both DRX and DTX modes are inactive, the network-side device is in a state of neither transmitting nor receiving on the first time domain resource. Under these circumstances, the terminal can assume that it can currently receive downlink signals or transmit uplink signals. Therefore, it can be determined that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL or UL. Consequently, the network-side device can perform downlink or uplink transmission on this first time domain resource, and the terminal can also perform downlink or uplink transmission on this first time domain resource. This is beneficial for improving resource utilization, reducing unnecessary power consumption, and ensuring energy saving for the terminal.
[0162] In some embodiments, the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode includes DTX mode and DRX mode, and determining the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the activation state of the at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode includes at least one of the following:
[0163] The terminal does not expect the DTX mode to be active and the time domain type of the first time domain resource corresponding to the DRX being active is UL, DL or Flexible.
[0164] The terminal does not expect the time domain type of the first time domain resource corresponding to the DTX mode being inactive and the DRX mode being active to be DL, Flexible, or X.
[0165] The terminal does not expect the time domain type of the first time domain resource corresponding to the DTX mode being active and the DRX mode being inactive to be UL, Flexible or X.
[0166] The terminal does not expect the DTX mode to be inactive, and the time domain type of the first time domain resource corresponding to the DRX mode being inactive is X.
[0167] When both DTX and DRX are active, the first time domain resource can include the time region where both DTX and DRX are active. In this case, network-side devices or terminals can perform full-duplex transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the terminal does not expect the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be UL, DL, or Flexible. Alternatively, the terminal expects the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be X, so that the terminal can perform full-duplex transmission on the first time domain resource, which is beneficial to improving resource utilization and ensuring the service transmission performance of the terminal.
[0168] When DTX mode is inactive and DRX is active, the first time domain resource can include the time region where DTX mode is inactive and DRX is active. In this case, the network-side device supports uplink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal supports uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the terminal does not expect the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be DL, Flexible, or X. Alternatively, the terminal expects the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be UL, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization, reduce unnecessary power consumption, and ensure the energy saving of the terminal.
[0169] When DTX mode is active and DRX is inactive, the first time domain resource can include the time region where DTX mode is active and DRX is inactive. In this case, the network-side device supports downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and the terminal supports downlink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the terminal does not expect the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be UL, Flexible, or X. Alternatively, the terminal expects the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be DL, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization, reduce unnecessary power consumption, and ensure the energy saving of the terminal.
[0170] When both DTX and DRX are inactive, the first time domain resource can include the time range in which both DTX and DRX are inactive. In this case, the network-side device does not support a state of neither transmitting nor receiving on the first time domain resource. The terminal can assume that it can receive downlink signals or transmit uplink signals. Therefore, the terminal does not expect the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be X. Alternatively, the terminal expects the time domain type of the first time domain resource to be DL or UL, which is beneficial to improve resource utilization, reduce unnecessary power consumption, and ensure the terminal's energy saving.
[0171] In some embodiments of this application, the method 200 further includes:
[0172] The terminal receives the second instruction information;
[0173] Based on the second indication information, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined.
[0174] In some embodiments, the second indication information for configuring the time domain type of the first time domain resource includes at least one of the following:
[0175] Uplink (UL);
[0176] Downlink (DL);
[0177] Enhanced duplex (XDD, abbreviated as X);
[0178] Flexible.
[0179] That is, in the embodiments of this application, the terminal can determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the activation status of at least one DTX / DRX mode, or it can determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the second indication information.
[0180] It should be understood that this application does not limit the signaling that carries the second instruction information. For example, the second instruction information can be carried by at least one of the following: broadcast message, RRC message, MAC CE, DCI.
[0181] In some embodiments, when the time domain type of the first time domain resource is X, the first time domain resource includes an uplink subband (UL subband) and a downlink subband (DL subband). Optionally, if the second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is UL, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be UL; or, if the second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be DL; or, if the second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is X, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be X; or, if the second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is Flexible, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be Flexible.
[0182] In some embodiments, determining the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the second indication information may include:
[0183] The terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode and the second indication information.
[0184] For example, the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined based on the activation status of the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode and the second indication information.
[0185] In some embodiments, the terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode and the second indication information, including at least one of the following:
[0186] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is enhanced duplex, and both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are active, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be enhanced duplex.
[0187] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is enhanced duplex, and the DTX mode is inactive and the DRX mode is active, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be UL, enhanced duplex, or flexible.
[0188] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is enhanced duplex, and the DTX mode is active and the DRX mode is inactive, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be DL, enhanced duplex, or flexible.
[0189] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL, and both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are active, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be enhanced duplex.
[0190] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is UL, and both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are active, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be enhanced duplex.
[0191] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is flexible, and it is determined that both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are active according to the first indication information, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be enhanced duplex.
[0192] If the second indication information is used to indicate that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is UL, DL, enhanced duplex or flexible, and both the DTX mode and the DRX mode are inactive, then the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined to be the time domain type configured by the second indication information.
[0193] The following describes, with reference to specific embodiments, how the time domain type of the first time domain resource is determined.
[0194] Example 1: The second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is enhanced duplex, i.e., X.
[0195] Example 1-1: Both DTX mode and DRX mode are active.
[0196] The first time-domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are active. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be X.
[0197] Example 1-2: DTX mode is inactive, DRX mode is active.
[0198] The first time domain resource may include a time zone where DTX mode is inactive and DRX mode is active. In this case, since DTX mode is inactive, network-side devices can only perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and terminals can only perform uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be UL.
[0199] Examples 1-3: DTX mode is active, DRX mode is inactive.
[0200] The first time domain resource may include a time zone where DTX mode is active and DRX mode is inactive. In this case, since DRX mode is inactive, network-side devices can only perform downlink transmission on the first time domain resource, and terminals can only perform uplink transmission on the first time domain resource. Therefore, the time domain type of the first time domain resource can be determined to be DL.
[0201] Examples 1-4: DTX mode is inactive, DRX mode is inactive.
[0202] The first time domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are inactive. In this case, the terminal can determine the time domain type indicated by the second indication information as the time domain type of the first time domain resource, that is, it does not adjust the time domain type indicated by the second indication information.
[0203] Furthermore, in this case, since both DRX and DTX modes are inactive, the network-side device is in a state of neither transmitting nor receiving on the first time domain resource. In this case, the terminal can assume that it can currently receive downlink signals or transmit uplink signals, and thus determine that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL or UL.
[0204] Example 2: The second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL.
[0205] Example 2-1: Both DTX mode and DRX mode are active.

[0207] Example 2-2: DTX mode is inactive, DRX mode is inactive.
[0208] The first time domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are inactive. In this case, the terminal can determine the time domain type indicated by the second indication information as the time domain type of the first time domain resource, that is, it does not adjust the time domain type indicated by the second indication information.
[0209] Furthermore, in this case, since both DRX and DTX modes are inactive, the network-side device is in a state of neither transmitting nor receiving on the first time domain resource. In this case, the terminal can assume that it can currently receive downlink signals or transmit uplink signals, and thus determine that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL or UL.
[0210] Example 3: The second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is UL.
[0211] Example 3-1: Both DTX mode and DRX mode are active.
[0212] The first time-domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are active. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be X.
[0213] Example 3-2: DTX mode is inactive, DRX mode is inactive.
[0214] The first time domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are inactive. In this case, the terminal can determine the time domain type indicated by the second indication information as the time domain type of the first time domain resource, that is, it does not adjust the time domain type indicated by the second indication information.
[0215] Furthermore, in this case, since both DRX and DTX modes are inactive, the network-side device is in a state of neither transmitting nor receiving on the first time domain resource. In this case, the terminal can assume that it can currently receive downlink signals or transmit uplink signals, and thus determine that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL or UL.
[0216] Example 4: The second indication information indicates that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is Flexible.
[0217] Example 4-1: Both DTX mode and DRX mode are active.
[0218] The first time-domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are active. In this case, the time-domain type of the first time-domain resource can be determined to be X.
[0219] Example 4-2: DTX mode is inactive, DRX mode is inactive.
[0220] The first time domain resource may include time regions where both DTX and DRX modes are inactive. In this case, the terminal can determine the time domain type indicated by the second indication information as the time domain type of the first time domain resource, that is, it does not adjust the time domain type indicated by the second indication information.
[0221] Furthermore, in this case, since both DRX and DTX modes are inactive, the network-side device is in a state of neither transmitting nor receiving on the first time domain resource. In this case, the terminal can assume that it can currently receive downlink signals or transmit uplink signals, and thus determine that the time domain type of the first time domain resource is DL or UL.
[0222] In some embodiments of this application, the method 200 further includes:
[0223] The terminal receives third indication information to indicate whether the terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0224] Optionally, the third indication information can be considered as an enable / adjustment switch for the terminal to determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode.
[0225] Optionally, the third indication information can be represented by 1 bit. For example, different values of this 1 bit can respectively enable the terminal to determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, or disable the terminal from determining the time domain type of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode. For example, a value of 1 indicates that the terminal is enabled to determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, and a value of 0 indicates that the terminal is disabled from determining the time domain type of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0226] Optionally, if the third indication information instructs the enabling terminal to determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, the terminal determines the time domain type of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0227] Optionally, if the third indication information instructs the terminal to de-enable the terminal to determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, the terminal may determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on the second indication information.
[0228] It should be understood that this application does not limit the signaling that carries the third instruction information. For example, the third instruction information can be carried by at least one of the following: broadcast message, RRC message, MAC CE, DCI.
[0229] In some embodiments of this application, the method 200 further includes:
[0230] The terminal receives a fourth indication information, which is used to indicate whether the terminal determines the transmission mode of the first time domain resource according to the at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0231] Optionally, the fourth indication information can be considered as an enable / adjustment switch for the terminal to determine the transmission mode of the first time domain resource based on at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0232] Optionally, the fourth indication information can be represented by 1 bit. For example, different values of this 1 bit can respectively enable the terminal to determine the transmission mode of the first time-domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, or disable the terminal from determining the transmission mode of the first time-domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode. For example, a value of 1 indicates that the terminal is enabled to determine the transmission mode of the first time-domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, and a value of 0 indicates that the terminal is disabled from determining the transmission mode of the first time-domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0233] Optionally, if the fourth indication information instructs the enabling terminal to determine the transmission mode of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, the terminal determines the transmission mode of the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0234] It should be understood that this application does not limit the signaling that carries the fourth instruction information. For example, the fourth instruction information can be carried by at least one of the following: broadcast message, RRC message, MAC CE, DCI.
[0235] In some embodiments, the first time-domain resource is a time-domain resource located after the first time point, and the first time point is spaced N time units apart from the time point at which the first indication information is received, where N is a positive integer.
[0236] Optionally, the unit of the time unit can be a time slot, a symbol, or a subframe, etc., and this application does not limit this.
[0237] Optionally, N can be predefined or configured by the network-side device.
[0238] Optionally, N can be related to the subcarrier spacing (SCS).
[0239] In some embodiments, N is the maximum value of T1 and T2, where T1 represents the effective delay of the first indication information and T2 represents the effective delay of adjusting the time domain type, that is, T2 represents the delay from adjusting the time domain type of the first time domain resource to the time domain type of the first time domain resource taking effect.
[0240] That is, the terminal can determine the time domain type of the first time domain resource after an interval of N time units from the first time. These N time units take into account the effective delay of the first indication information and the effective delay of adjusting the time domain type. This is beneficial for the terminal to adjust the time domain type or transmission mode of the appropriate time domain resource, and further perform uplink and downlink transmission based on the adjusted time domain type or transmission mode. This is beneficial to improve resource utilization and reduce unnecessary power consumption.
[0241] In some embodiments of this application, the method 200 further includes:
[0242] The terminal performs uplink or downlink transmission on the first time domain resource based on the time domain type of the first time domain resource or the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource.

[0246] Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH);
[0247] Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS).
[0248] Optionally, the PDCCH may include, but is not limited to, a PDCCH within the Common Search Space (CSS) or the UE Search Space (USS).
[0249] Optionally, the PDSCH may include a dynamically scheduled PDSCH, such as a Dynamic Grant (DG) PDSCH, or a semi-statically configured PDSCH, such as a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) PDSCH.
[0250] Optionally, CSI-RS may include, but is not limited to, periodic CSI-RS or non-periodic CSI-RS.
[0251] In some embodiments, the terminal performs uplink transmission on the first time domain resource based on the time domain type of the first time domain resource or the target transmission mode corresponding to the first time domain resource, including:
[0252] The terminal transmits at least one of the following on the first time domain resource:
[0253] Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH);
[0254] Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH);
[0255] Sounding Reference Signal (SRS);
[0256] Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH).
[0257] Optionally, the PUCCH may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following:
[0258] Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK);
[0259] Channel State Information (CSI);
[0260] Scheduling Request (SR).
[0261] Optionally, PUSCH may include dynamically scheduled PUSCH or semi-statically configured PUSCH.
[0262] Optionally, SRS may include periodic SRS or non-periodic SRS.
[0263] In summary, in the embodiments of this application, the terminal can determine the transmission mode or time domain type corresponding to the first time domain resource according to at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode, and further perform uplink and downlink transmission based on the determined transmission mode or time domain type corresponding to the first time domain resource.

This is beneficial for using a suitable transmission mode or time-domain type for uplink and downlink transmission on the first time-domain resource, thereby improving resource utilization and reducing unnecessary losses.
[0330] The following examples, in conjunction with Figures 11 and 12, illustrate the specific implementation of determining the time-domain type and transmission mode of the first time-domain resource based on at least one discontinuous transmit / receive mode. In the examples of Figures 11 and 12, the network-side device configures a semi-static SBFD configuration for the terminal, specifically as shown in Figures 11 and 12. The network side configures and enables Cell DTX and Cell DRX modes, both of which are periodic.
[0331] First, referring to Figure 11, we will explain the specific implementation of determining the time domain type of the first time domain resource based on at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0332] In the example in Figure 11, the network side supports full-duplex transmission mode, and the terminal side supports half-duplex transmission mode.
[0333] For a time region where both Cell DTX and Cell DRX are active, the terminal can determine the corresponding time domain type. For example, if time slot 1 in Figure 11 is located in a time region where both Cell DTX and Cell DRX are active, the terminal can determine the corresponding time domain type for time slot 1.
[0334] In one implementation, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 1 can be determined as X. In this case, the network-side device can perform downlink and uplink transmissions, and the terminal can perform downlink or uplink transmissions according to the network-side configuration.
[0335] In some implementations, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 1 can also be determined based on the semi-static SBFD configuration. For example, if the time domain type corresponding to time slot 1 is DL in the semi-static SBFD configuration, even if time slot 1 is located in a time region where both Cell DTX and Cell DRX are active, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 1 is considered to be determined according to the semi-static SBFD configuration, i.e., DL. In this case, the network-side equipment can perform downlink transmission, and the UE can perform downlink transmission according to the network-side configuration.
[0336] For a time region where Cell DTX is active and Cell DRX is inactive, the terminal can determine the corresponding time domain type. For example, if time slot 4 in Figure 11 is located in a time region where Cell DTX is active and Cell DRX is inactive, the terminal can determine the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4.
[0337] In some implementations, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4 can be determined to be DL. In this case, the network-side device can perform downlink transmission, and the terminal can perform downlink transmission according to the network-side configuration.
[0338] In some other implementations, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4 can also be determined based on the semi-static SBFD configuration. For example, if the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4 is X in the semi-static SBFD configuration, but only Cell DTX is active, that is, the network-side device can only perform downlink transmission on time slot 4, the terminal can determine that the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4 is DL.
[0339] For a time region where Cell DTX is inactive and Cell DRX is active, the corresponding time domain type can be determined. For example, if time slot 14 in Figure 11 is located in a time region where Cell DTX is inactive and Cell DRX is active, the terminal can determine the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14.
[0340] In some implementations, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14 can be determined to be UL. In this case, the network-side device can perform uplink transmission, and the terminal can perform uplink transmission according to the network-side configuration.
[0341] In some other implementations, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14 can also be determined based on the semi-static SBFD configuration. For example, if the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14 is X in the semi-static SBFD configuration, but only Cell DRX is active, that is, the network-side device can only perform uplink transmission on time slot 14, the terminal can determine that the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14 is UL.
[0342] The following description, in conjunction with Figure 12, illustrates the specific implementation of determining the transmission mode of the first time-domain resource based on at least one discontinuous transmission and reception mode.
[0343] In the example in Figure 12, both the network side and the terminal side support full-duplex transmission mode.
[0344] For a time period in which both Cell DTX and Cell DRX are active, the corresponding transmission mode and transmission direction can be determined. For example, if time slot 1 in Figure 12 is located in a time period in which both Cell DTX and Cell DRX are active, then the transmission mode and transmission direction corresponding to time slot 1 can be determined.
[0345] In one implementation, it can be determined that in time slot 1, the transmission mode corresponding to both the terminal and the network-side device is full-duplex.
[0346] In other implementations, the transmission mode and direction corresponding to time slot 1 can also be determined based on the semi-static SBFD configuration. For example, if the time domain type corresponding to time slot 1 is DL in the semi-static SBFD configuration, even if time slot 1 is located in the time region where both Cell DTX and Cell DRX are active, it can be considered that the duplex mode corresponding to the network-side device and the terminal is half-duplex mode in time slot 1. Therefore, the time domain type corresponding to time slot 1 is determined according to the semi-static SBFD configuration, i.e., DL.
[0347] For a time region where Cell DTX is active and Cell DRX is inactive, the corresponding transmission mode and transmission direction can be determined. For example, in Figure 12, time slot 4 is located in a time region where Cell DTX is active and Cell DRX is inactive, so the transmission mode and transmission direction corresponding to time slot 4 can be determined.
[0348] In some implementations, it can be determined that in time slot 4, the transmission mode corresponding to both the terminal and the network-side device is half-duplex, or the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device is full-duplex, the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal is half-duplex, the transmission direction is DL, and the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4 is DL or X.
[0349] In some other implementations, the terminal can also determine the transmission mode and transmission direction corresponding to time slot 4 based on the semi-static SBFD configuration. For example, if the time domain type corresponding to time slot 4 is X in the semi-static SBFD configuration, but only Cell DTX is active, that is, the network-side device can only perform downlink transmission in time slot 4, it can be determined that the transmission mode corresponding to both the terminal and the network-side device in time slot 4 is half-duplex, and the transmission direction is DL.
[0350] For a time period in which Cell DTX is inactive and Cell DRX is active, the terminal can determine the transmission mode and transmission direction corresponding to that time period. For example, if time slot 14 in Figure 11 is located in a time period in which Cell DTX is inactive and Cell DRX is active, then the terminal can determine the transmission mode and transmission direction corresponding to time slot 14.
[0351] In some implementations, it can be determined that in time slot 14, the transmission mode corresponding to both the terminal and the network-side device is half-duplex, or the transmission mode corresponding to the network-side device is full-duplex, the transmission mode corresponding to the terminal is half-duplex, the transmission direction is UL, and the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14 is UL or X.
[0352] In some other implementations, the transmission mode corresponding to time slot 14 can also be determined based on the semi-static SBFD configuration. For example, if the time domain type corresponding to time slot 14 is X in the semi-static SBFD configuration, but only Cell DRX is active, that is, the network-side device can only perform uplink transmission on time slot 14, the terminal can determine that the transmission mode corresponding to both the terminal and the network-side device is half-duplex and the transmission direction is UL in time slot 14.
