[0001] The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a device and a device in a wireless communication system. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a wireless communication system, different communication nodes (or simply nodes) can exchange information (e.g., voice, or data) with each other. Examples of communication nodes can include terminal nodes and network nodes, etc., where a terminal node can refer to a mobile terminal, or a wireless terminal, or a terminal device, or a mobile device, or a mobile station (MS), or a user equipment (UE), or simply a device; a network node can include a base station, etc.

In recent years, wireless communication technologies including LTE, NR, etc., have been widely applied to not only communications between people (or between devices operated or controlled by people), but also “machine-type communications” (MTC), i.e., providing network access services for “things” or “machines”, and, for example, forming an “Internet of Things” (IoT) based thereon.

It should be noted that the present disclosure should not be limited to the specific embodiments described below. In addition, detailed descriptions of well-known technology related to the present disclosure are omitted to prevent obscuring the understanding of the present disclosure.

[0022] The following describes in detail a plurality of embodiments according to the present disclosure, taking 5G wireless communication system specifications established by 3GPP and its subsequent evolution versions (e.g., 5G Advanced) as an example application environment. However, it should be noted that the present disclosure is not limited to the following embodiments, but can be applied to more other wireless communication systems, such as wireless communication systems after 5G, and 4G mobile communication systems such as LTE, LTE-Advanced, LTE-Advanced Pro, etc. before 5G.

[0023] The terms given in the present disclosure can be named differently in different wireless communication systems, but the present disclosure uses unified terms, which can be replaced by the terms used in the corresponding system when applied to a specific system.

[0024] In all embodiments and implementations of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified:

[0025] • "predefined" and "preset" can be interchangeable.

[0026] • "number" and "index" can be interchangeable. For example, the number of an RB (resource block) can also be referred to as the index of the RB; for example, "numbering an RB as 0" can also be expressed as "indexing an RB as 0".

[0027] • The elements in a set (or array, or list, or sequence, etc.) can correspond to indices 0, 1, 2,..., or 1, 2, 3,... in turn according to their order of appearance. For example, the elements t0, t1,..., and t N-1 in the set {t0, t1,..., t N-1 may correspond to indices 0, 1,..., and N-1, respectively.

[0028] • The elements in a set (or array, or list, or sequence, etc.) can be represented by their indices (e.g., the subscript of the corresponding element in the set or array or list or sequence, etc.). For example, an RE (Resource Element) with an index of 0 can be referred to as "RE 0".

[0029] • An index corresponding to an object (e.g., a subcarrier, a time slot, a cyclic shift, etc.) can be used as an "identifier" (ID) of the object, e.g., the index of the object in a set, or an array, or a list, or a sequence.

[0030] • An index corresponding to an object can be used to indicate the object in signaling.

[0031] • If no corresponding quantity is specified when referring to an object, the quantity of the object can be one, or can be multiple. For example, in "performing transmission(s) on a channel", the "transmission(s)" can correspond to one transmission, or multiple transmissions.

[0032] • The elements in a time sequence or a corresponding set (e.g., a time slot set {t0, t1,..., tN-1}) can appear in a time-sequential order, e.g., the time corresponding to time slot t0 is earlier than (or not later than) the time corresponding to time slot t1, the time corresponding to time slot t1 is earlier than (or not later than) the time corresponding to time slot t2, and so on. N-1

[0033] • Δ(x1, x2) can represent the offset between x1 and x2 (or, the offset of x2 with respect to x1; or, the offset from x1 to x2), where x1 and x2 can be values of two comparable parameters (or variables), or can be two possible values of one parameter (or variable). If x1 and x2 are two time parameters (or variables), Δ(x1, x2) > 0 can represent that the time corresponding to x1 is earlier than the time corresponding to x2, Δ(x1, x2) ≥ 0 can represent that the time corresponding to x1 is earlier than or equal to the time corresponding to x2, Δ(x1, x2) < 0 can represent that the time corresponding to x1 is later than the time corresponding to x2, and Δ(x1, x2) ≤ 0 can represent that the time corresponding to x1 is later than or equal to the time corresponding to x2. For example, if x1 and x2 are two time slots in a resource pool, Δ(x1, x2) can be defined as the difference between the time slot index corresponding to x2 and the time slot index corresponding to x1, where the time slot index can be a physical time slot index, or a logical time slot index (e.g., the index of the corresponding time slot in the time slot set of the resource pool).

[0047] In some respects, the relationship between a priority and its corresponding priority value can be that the priority decreases as the priority value increases. For example, if a first sideline transmission and a second sideline transmission are associated with priority values ​​of 1 and 2, respectively, then the first sideline transmission has a higher priority than the second sideline transmission.

[0048] In some respects, the relationship between a priority and its corresponding priority value can be that the priority increases as the priority value increases. For example, if a first sideline transmission and a second sideline transmission are associated with priority values ​​of 1 and 2, respectively, then the priority of the first sideline transmission is lower than the priority of the second sideline transmission.

[0080] In some respects, "operation" can refer to an upward operation, or a downward operation, or a sideways operation, or other operations.

[0081] In some respects, a “transmission” can correspond to a transmission on a physical channel. For example, the physical channel can be a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel), a PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), a PRACH (Physical Random-Access Channel), a PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel), a PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel), a PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), a PSCCH (Physical Sidelink Control Channel), a PSSCH (Physical Sidelink Shared Channel), a PSFCH (Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel), a PSBCH (Physical Sidelink Broadcast Channel), or any other physical channel.

[0082] In some respects, a "transmission" can correspond to the transmission of a physical signal.

[0083] In some respects, a “transmission” can correspond to the transmission of zero or more physical channels and zero or more physical signals multiplexed in the same resource (e.g., a time frequency in a resource pool; or several RBs in a time slot). For example, an “SS / PBCH block” (or an “SSB”, or an “SS block”) can consist of a PSS, an SSS, and a PBCH multiplexed in the same time slot; similarly, an “S-SS / PSBCH block” (or an “S-SSB”, or an “S-SS block”, or a “side-line SSB”) can consist of an S-PSS, an S-SSS, and a PSBCH multiplexed in the same time slot; similarly, a “PSCCH / PSSCH” (or a “PSSCH / PSCCH”) can consist of a PSCCH and its associated PSSCH multiplexed in the same time slot (e.g., a time slot in a resource pool). Here, "S-SS / PSBCH" can represent Sidelink Synchronization Signal / Physical Sidelink Broadcast Channel.

[0084] In some respects, a DCI carried in a downlink transmission (e.g., PDCCH) that corresponds to a specific DCI format (e.g., denoted as DCI format x) can be referred to as "a DCI format X". For example, a DCI carried in a PDCCH that corresponds to DCI format 0_0 can be referred to as "a DCI format 0_0".

[0085] In Release 12 (or Rel-12), 3GPP specifications introduced a new UE category, "Category 0," for "Low Complexity UEs" to provide low-cost devices for MTC (Multi-Channel Computing). Compared to UE categories introduced before Rel-12, Category 0 UEs have simplified transmission and reception capabilities. For example, the transport block size (TBS) for user data transmission in Category 0 UEs is limited to no more than 1000 bits; also, the half-duplex FDD operation type B supported by Category 0 UEs has a longer "guard period" than the previous half-duplex FDD operation type A.

[0086] Starting with Rel-13, 3GPP specifications began supporting eMTC (enhanced MTC, also known as "LTE-MTC" or "LTE-M") to further reduce the cost of MTC devices and support wider coverage (e.g., this can manifest as higher coupling loss). The "Category M1" UE introduced in Rel-13 is a "BL UE" (bandwidth-reduced low complexity UE) that only supports 6 PRBs of channel bandwidth in both uplink and downlink. Subsequent 3GPP specifications introduced an enhanced UE category for BL UEs, "Category M2," to support larger PDSCH / PUSCH channel bandwidths. BL UEs have their own SIB1 (System Information Block 1), which differs from non-BL UEs.

[0087] 3GPP Rel-13 also supports "UEs in Enhanced Coverage" (or "UEs in Coverage Enhancement," or simply "UEs in CE"), which requires enhanced coverage functionality to access a cell. To this end, Rel-13 introduces two enhanced coverage modes: CE mode A and CE mode B. For BL UEs, support for CE mode A is mandatory. Within a cell supporting enhanced coverage functionality, different CE levels can correspond to different configurations (e.g., PRACH resource configuration) and / or operations.

[0088] 3GPP Rel-13 also introduced NB-IoT (Narrow Band Internet of Things), which allows network services to be provided via E-UTRA (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access) with a channel bandwidth of 200 kHz. NB-IoT provides access to network services using a physical layer optimized for very low power consumption; for example, this includes using a full carrier bandwidth of 180 kHz, subcarrier spacing of 3.75 kHz or 15 kHz, etc. In an NB-IoT carrier, subcarrier spacing of 3.75 kHz and 15 kHz can correspond to transmission bandwidth configurations of 48 subcarriers and 12 subcarriers, respectively.

[0089] NB-IoT removes many features from E-UTRA that are not relevant to the design goals of NB-IoT, such as inter-RAT mobility, handover, relaying, carrier aggregation, dual connectivity, side-to-side communication, and side-to-side discovery, thereby greatly reducing the complexity of the UE.

[0090] NB-IoT supports stand-alone operation, guard band operation, and in-band operation. In stand-alone operation, NB-IoT uses its own spectrum, such as the spectrum corresponding to one or more GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) carriers. In guard band operation, NB-IoT can use unused resource blocks (RB(s)) within the guard band of an E-UTRA carrier. In in-band operation, NB-IoT can use resource blocks (RB(s)) within a normal E-UTRA carrier.

[0091] NB-IoT supports two UE categories: Category NB1 and Category NB2. UEs supporting the latter must also support the former. Category NB2 supports larger maximum uplink TBS, maximum downlink TBS, and Layer 2 buffer size than Category NB1.

[0092] Both eMTC and NB-IoT can be considered as LPWA (low power, wide area) technologies, and their devices are characterized by low cost, long battery life, ubiquitous coverage, and high system capacity.

[0093] In recent years, automation and digitalization across various industries have opened up many new markets, creating a pressing need for new IoT technologies to support devices with lower complexity and / or power consumption (e.g., one or more orders of magnitude lower than existing 3GPP LPWA technologies such as eMTC and / or NB-IoT). This could include devices with very limited energy storage capacity and no rechargeable or manually replaceable batteries. Additionally, new IoT technologies need to support higher connection counts and / or device densities (e.g., one or more orders of magnitude higher than existing 3GPP LPWA technologies such as eMTC and / or NB-IoT). To this end, 3GPP launched a study item in Rel-19 called "Study on solutions for Ambient IoT (Internet of Things) in NR" to evaluate the feasibility of new IoT technologies (including corresponding wireless access technologies) known as "Ambient Power-enabled IoT" (or simply A-IoT).

[0094] In some respects, A-IoT can support some or all of "standalone operation," "guard band operation," and "in-band operation." For example, in standalone operation, A-IoT can use its own spectrum; in guard band operation, A-IoT can use unused resource blocks (RB(s)) in the guard band of an NR carrier; and in in-band operation, A-IoT can use resource blocks (RB(s)) in an NR carrier.

[0095] In some respects, an A-IoT system may include at least some or all of the following:

[0096] ● One or more devices. Each of these devices can also be referred to as an "A-IoT device".

[0097] ● One or more “readers” (or “interrogators”), wherein a reader may be a base station (e.g., a 5G base station), or an “intermediate node” that can communicate bidirectionally with the base station(s) (e.g., via the LTE Uu interface; or, as another example, via the NR Uu interface), or a communication node defined in other ways.

[0098] ● One or more “carrier wave nodes” (or “CW nodes”), where a CW node can be used to transmit CW (carrier wave, radio frequency carrier wave, RF carrier wave, RF CW). In some respects, the transmission of CW can be considered as a transmission from one CW node to one or more devices, and correspondingly, it can be called a “CW2D” (cw-node-to-device) transmission.

[0099] In some respects, a device can be attached to a tag (or label) on an item.

[0100] In some respects, a "device ID" can be used to identify (e.g., uniquely identify) a device in an A-IoT system. In other respects, a device ID can be an integer, or it can be defined in other ways.

[0101] In some respects, a "device group ID" can be used to identify (e.g., uniquely identify) a group of devices in an A-IoT system, where the device group may contain (or be mapped to) one or more devices. In some respects, a device group ID may be an integer, or may be defined in other ways.

[0102] In some respects, a device group ID corresponding to a device group that includes (or maps to) all devices can be called a “broadcast ID”.

[0103] In some respects, an intermediate node can be a UE that supports reader functionality (e.g., an LTE UE; or an NR UE). In other respects, an intermediate node can transfer data and / or signaling between base stations(s) and devices (e.g., via the NRUu interface; or, via the LTE Uu interface).

[0104] In some respects, the waveform of the CW transmitted by a CW node can be a single-tone waveform, such as a single-tone unmodulated sinusoid.

[0105] In some respects, the waveform of the CW transmitted by a CW node can be a multi-tone waveform, for example, a waveform composed of two unmodulated single-tone sine waves.

[0106] In some respects, a device can communicate bidirectionally directly with a reader(s) (e.g., via A-IoT radio access technology), where...

[0107] ●The bidirectional communication may include the transmission of data and / or signaling.

[0108] ●The bidirectional communication may include the reception of data and / or signaling.

[0109] A transmission from the device to a reader (e.g., referred to as "Reader A") can be called a D2R (device-to-reader) transmission, and the corresponding link can be called a "D2R link". In some respects, without the risk of confusion, a D2R link can be called an "uplink" (UL).

[0110] A transmission from a reader (e.g., referred to as "Reader B") to the device can be called an R2D (reader-to-device) transmission, and the corresponding link can be called an "R2D link". In some respects, without the risk of confusion, an R2D link can be called a "downlink" (DL).

[0114] In some aspects, a device may support energy harvesting technology, for example, by capturing and converting energy from its surrounding environment (e.g., radio waves therein) for power generation and / or storage. In some aspects, the antenna for communication and the antenna for radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting may be the same antenna or different antennas. In some aspects, a device supporting energy harvesting may be equipped with a rechargeable or manually replaceable battery, or may not be equipped with any such battery.

[0115] In some aspects, a device can support backscattered transmission (also called backscattering transmission, or "backscattering-based transmission"), wherein, for example, the device can modulate its backscattered CW transmitted by a CW node in a certain way (e.g., by changing the impedance of its antenna according to the information to be transmitted) to achieve a D2R transmission. In some aspects, for the device, the CW is "externally provided" (rather than generated within the device).

[0116] Compared to backscatter-based transmission, transmission generated internally by a device can be called "internally-generated transmission" (or "self-generated transmission," or "transmission based on independent signal generation"). For example, in an internally-generated transmission, steps such as digital baseband signal generation, digital-to-analog conversion, filtering, mixing, analog RF signal generation and amplification, and outputting the signal to the antenna can all be performed internally by the device.

[0117] In some respects, “backscatter-based transmission” and “endogenous transmission” can be considered as two different “types” or “transmission schemes” of D2R transmission.

[0118] In some respects, devices in an A-IoT system can be categorized into multiple categories (or, "types").

Similarly, a D2R transmission can occupy one or more “D2R chips” (e.g., one or more consecutive D2R chips).

[0142] In some respects, "chip duration" (or "chip length") can refer to the duration of an R2D chip, a D2R chip, or a "reference chip duration." The "reference chip duration" can be equal to the duration of an R2D chip, equal to the duration of a D2R chip, or not equal to any R2D or D2R chip duration (correspondingly, the "reference chip duration" may not correspond to any actually transmitted R2D or D2R chip). For example, the duration of an R2D chip can be equal to two reference chip durations (e.g., denoted as 2·D). CH,ref The duration of one D2R chip can be equal to the duration of six reference chips (e.g., denoted as 6·D). CH,ref ), wherein the D CH,ref It can represent a reference chip duration.

In other respects, when the modulation scheme is OOK, a chip can correspond to an "OOK symbol", and correspondingly, a chip value can be called an OOK chip value (or, OOK symbol value). In some respects, where there is no risk of confusion, "chip value" can be simply referred to as "chip", and "OOK chip value" can be simply referred to as "OOK chip".

[0156] ●In some respects, the aforementioned It can be equal to a predefined or preconfigured value, or it can correspond to a predefined or preconfigured parameter.

[0157] ●In some respects, the aforementioned It can be determined at least in part based on the operating frequency band used for D2R transmission (e.g., a reference D2R SCS configuration can be predefined or preconfigured for one or more operating frequency bands that can be used for D2R transmission, and another reference D2R SCS configuration can be predefined or preconfigured for another one or more operating frequency bands that can be used for D2R transmission).

[0165] In some respects, “the mapping from bits to chips” may include at least some or all of the following sub-steps: line coding, square wave multiplication.

[0166] For example, each input bit can be directly mapped to N using line coding. b2c Each output chip. Specifically, for example, in "Manchester encoding," bit 0 can be mapped to a sequence of chip pieces. And mapping bit 1 to chip sequence Accordingly, the input bit sequence {1, 1, 0} can be mapped to the output chip sequence.

[0167] For example, one input bit can be mapped to N bits using line coding. lcsA "virtual chip" (for example, in Manchester encoding, bit 0 can be mapped to a sequence of "virtual chips") Bit 1 can be mapped to a sequence of "virtual chips". in and (These can correspond to a low-level "virtual chip" and a high-level "virtual chip" respectively), and then the N lcs A "virtual chip" and a chip containing N b2c A "square wave" (e.g., using a chip sequence) consisting of 10 chips (each chip having a duration equal to that of an output chip). This can be represented, for example, by using a chip sequence. Multiplying these two virtual chips (represented by the given information) yields an output chip sequence, where each virtual chip corresponds in time to... N chips. Specifically, for example, suppose N b2c =4, then for the first bit "1" in an input bit sequence {1, 1, 0}, it can first be mapped to a sequence of "virtual chips" according to Manchester encoding. Secondly, the "virtual chip" sequence can be... Chip sequence corresponding to "square wave" Multiplying them, we get " and The code obtained by multiplication (i.e., the chip) ), " and The code obtained by multiplication (i.e., the chip) ), " and The code obtained by multiplication (i.e., the chip) ),as well as" and The code obtained by multiplication (i.e., the chip) That is, the chip sequence mapped to the bit "1" is After mapping the two remaining bits in the input bit sequence using the same method, the final output chip sequence can be obtained as follows:

[0172] In some respects, a repetition scheme can be called a "repetition type", and vice versa.

[0173] In some respects, the number of repetitions (or repetition level, or repetition factor) is N. rep "Repetition" can refer to inserting N of the object immediately following each object that needs to be repeated (e.g., a bit; or a block of bits consisting of one or more bits; or a chip; or a block of chips consisting of one or more chips). rep -1 replicas, wherein the N rep It can be a condition that satisfies N rep An integer greater than or equal to 1. In some respects, the number of repetitions N. rep A "repetition" of 1 can be equivalent to "no repetition," and vice versa. In some cases, where there is no risk of confusion, N can be... rep -1 (instead of the stated N) rep The number of repetitions is called the "number of repetitions". Accordingly, the number of repetitions can be an integer greater than or equal to 0, and a "repetition" with a number of repetitions of 0 is equivalent to "no repetition", and vice versa.

For example, if N is applied to an input block containing 3 bits (e.g., 0, 1, 0 in sequence). rep If the block-level repetition is 2, the resulting output bit sequence can be {0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0}. In some aspects, each input block in the block-level repetition can consist of all the output bits obtained after performing CRC attachment (if any) on one or more input information bits, wherein, in some aspects, the one or more input bits can include part or all of all information bits used for the A-IoT transmission (e.g., all information bits from the physical layer and all information bits from higher layers).

[0177] ● Bit-level repetition. For example, if N is applied to an input bit sequence {0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1}... rep If the bit-level repetition is 2, the resulting output bit sequence can be {0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1}. Bit-level repetition can include at least one or more of the following:

[0179] ■ Type-2 bit-level repetition applies bit-level repetition to the bit sequence formed by all output bits obtained after performing CRC attachment (if any) and FEC (if any).

[0180] In some respects, for an A-IoT transmission that does not perform FEC, type 1 bit repetition can be considered equivalent to type 2 bit repetition.

[0181] In some respects, “chip-level repetition” may not be a step in “bit-to-chip mapping”.

[0182] In some respects, "chip-level repetition" can be a step in "bit-to-chip mapping". For example, an input bit sequence can be mapped to a temporary output chip sequence through line coding and partial or complete square wave multiplication, and then "chip-level repetition" can be applied to the temporary output chip sequence to obtain the final output chip sequence.

[0183] In some respects, repetition schemes other than "chip-level repetition" (e.g., block-level repetition; type 1 bit-level repetition; type 2 bit-level repetition) can be called "non-chip-level repetition" schemes.

[0184] In some respects, applying a code sequence with a chip duration of DCH and a number of repetitions of N... rep "Chip-level repetition" can be equivalent to changing the chip duration of the chip sequence to N. rep ·DCH, and vice versa.

[0331] ● An indication of one or more fields other than the “Initial ID” field in the “A-IoT Message 1” (or, the D2R transmission carrying it).

[0332] ● An indication in the A-IoT paging message (or R2D transmission carrying it) that triggers the “A-IoT Message 1” (or, the D2R transmission carrying it). For example, the A-IoT paging message (or, the R2D transmission carrying it) may explicitly indicate whether the “Initial ID” field is used to indicate a “first initial ID” or a “second initial ID”. Alternatively, if the A-IoT paging message (or, the R2D transmission carrying it) indicates contention-based A-IoT access, then the “Initial ID” field is used to indicate a “first initial ID”. Alternatively, if the A-IoT paging message (or, the R2D transmission carrying it) indicates contention-free A-IoT access, then the “Initial ID” field is used to indicate a “second initial ID”.
