[0133] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a new duplex technology, subband non-overlapping full duplex (SBFD), is introduced on the basis of TDD, as shown in FIG. 2. The SBFD introduces an uplink subband (UL Subband) on at least one of the frequency domain resources corresponding to the downlink symbol and the flexible symbol, which can be used for uplink transmission, thereby effectively improving the uplink coverage. It can be understood that the downlink subband (DL Subband) is also shown in FIG. 2.

As shown in FIG. 4A, the horizontal coordinate in FIG. 4A is the time domain, which can be OFDM symbols in a slot. The vertical coordinate is the frequency domain, which can be subcarriers in a resource block.

[0168] The coded bits of HARQ-ACK are defined as: where G ACK is the number of coded bits of HARQ-ACK.

[0169] It can be understood that if there are jointly coded bits of HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI, the jointly coded bits of HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI (if any) are defined as

[0179] Definition is the jth element in ; for any OFDM symbol in PUSCH carrying DMRS, for any OFDM symbol in PUSCH not carrying DMRS,

[0180] It can be understood that when the first resource (e.g., uplink muting resource or uplink rate matching resource) cannot be used to transmit data, the first resource cannot be used to transmit UCI.

[0181] Then, the multiplexing of UCI can be implemented through the following steps 0 to step 6:

[0182] Step 0, if PUSCH frequency hopping is configured, define l(1) as the index of the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the first hop, define l(2) as the index of the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the second hop, define is the OFDM symbol index of the first OFDM symbol not carrying DMRS in the first hop, define is the OFDM symbol index of the first OFDM symbol not carrying DMRS in the second hop.

[0183] If PUSCH frequency hopping is configured, if there is HARQ-ACK transmission on the PUSCH, or if there is both HARQ-CK and CG-UCI transmission on the PUSCH, define G ACK (1) and G ACK (2), G ACK (1) is the number of encoded bits of HARQ-ACK or the number of jointly encoded bits of HARQ-CK and CG-UCI multiplexed on the first hop of PUSCH, G ACK (2) is the number of encoded bits of HARQ-ACK or the number of jointly encoded bits of HARQ-CK and CG-UCI multiplexed on the second hop of PUSCH.

[0186] Define and define and are the number of OFDM symbols included in the first and second hop of PUSCH, respectively; N L is the number of transmission layers of PUSCH, Q m is the modulation order of PUSCH.

[0187] If PUSCH frequency hopping is not configured, define l(1) as the index of the first OFDM symbol after the last OFDM symbol of the first group of symbols carrying DMRS, and define is the OFDM symbol index of the first OFDM symbol not carrying DMRS.

[0188] If PUSCH frequency hopping is not configured, define G ACK (1) = G ACK .

[0189] If PUSCH frequency hopping is not configured, define G CSI-part1 (1) = G CSI-part1 and G CSI-part2 (1) = G CSI-part2 .

[0190] If PUSCH frequency hopping is not configured, define G CG-UCI (1) = G CG-UCI .

[0191] Define and define

[0192] Step 1: When HARQ-ACK exists, the number of bits of HARQ-ACK is less than or equal to 2, and CG-UCI does not exist, determine the reserved resource.

[0193] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the CSI can include CSI part 2 and CSI part 1, and optionally, the CSI part 1 indicates a basic part of channel state information, and the CSI part 2 indicates more refined channel information.

[0194] The reserved resource is used for puncturing of HARQ-ACK on UL-SCH and CSI part 2, that is, replacing the bits of UL-SCH and CSI part 2 located in the reserved resource, and the specific implementation can refer to step 3 or step 4 or step 5.

[0195] In the time domain, if frequency hopping is not configured, the time domain position of the reserved resource starts from the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the PUSCH.

[0196] In the time domain, if frequency hopping is configured, the time domain position of the reserved resource starts from the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the first hop and the second hop of the PUSCH, respectively.

[0197] In the frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol cannot completely carry all HARQ-ACK encoding bits, the reserved resource includes the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in the symbol.

[0198] In the frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol is enough to carry all HARQ-ACK encoding bits, in the symbol, the reserved resource is evenly distributed on the set of REs available for transmitting UCI, and if the reserved resource is not enough to be evenly distributed on the set of REs available for transmitting UCI, the reserved resource will be continuously distributed on the set of REs available for transmitting UCI.

[0199] Step 2: When HARQ-ACK exists, and the number of bits of HARQ-ACK is greater than 2 bits, or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI exist at the same time, determine the time-frequency resource of HARQ-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI), and put the encoding bits of HARQ-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI) into the time-frequency resource.

[0200] It should be understood that step 1 and step 2 will not be executed in a communication method, and only one of the steps will be executed.

[0201] In time domain, if frequency hopping is not configured, the time domain location of the time-frequency resource of the HAQR-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI) starts from the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the PUSCH.

[0202] In time domain, if frequency hopping is configured, the time domain location of the time-frequency resource of the HAQR-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI) starts from the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the first hop and the second hop of the PUSCH, respectively.

[0203] In frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol cannot completely carry all the encoded bits of the HAQR-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI), the time-frequency resource of the HAQR-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI) includes the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in the symbol.

[0204] In frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol can completely carry all the encoded bits of the HAQR-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI), in the symbol row, the time-frequency resource of the HAQR-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI) is evenly distributed on the set of REs available for transmitting UCI.

[0205] Step 2A, when CG-UCI exists but HARQ-ACK does not exist, determine the time-frequency resource of CG-UCI, and put the encoded bits of CG-UCI into the time-frequency resource:

[0206] It should be understood that steps 1, 2 and 2A will not be executed in one communication method, but only one of them will be executed.

[0207] In time domain, if frequency hopping is not configured, the time domain location of the time-frequency resource of the CG-UCI starts from the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the PUSCH.

[0208] In time domain, if frequency hopping is configured, the time domain location of the time-frequency resource of the CG-UCI starts from the first OFDM symbol after the first group of consecutive OFDM symbols carrying DMRS in the first hop and the second hop of the PUSCH, respectively.

[0209] In frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol cannot completely carry all the encoded bits of the CG-UCI, the time-frequency resource of the CG-UCI includes the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in the symbol.

[0210] In frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol can carry all the coded bits of CG-UCI, the time-frequency resources of CG-UCI are evenly distributed over the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in that symbol row.

[0211] Step 3: When CSI is present, determine the time-frequency resources of CSI and put the coded bits of CSI in the time-frequency resources.

[0212] In time domain, if frequency hopping is not configured, the time-domain location of the time-frequency resources of CSI is from the first OFDM symbol in PUSCH that does not carry DMRS.

[0213] In time domain, if frequency hopping is configured, the time-domain location of the time-frequency resources of CSI is from the first OFDM symbol in the first hop and the second hop of PUSCH that does not carry DMRS, respectively.

[0214] In frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol cannot carry all the coded bits of CSI, the time-frequency resources of CSI include the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in that symbol.

[0215] In frequency domain, if the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in a symbol can carry all the coded bits of CSI, the time-frequency resources of CSI are evenly distributed over the set of REs available for transmitting UCI in that symbol row.

[0216] It can be understood that the time-frequency resources of CSI part 1 are determined first, and then the time-frequency resources of CSI part 2 are determined.

[0217] It should be understood that for CSI part 1, the set of REs available for transmitting UCI does not include the time-frequency resources for transmitting HARQ-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI), the time-frequency resources for transmitting CG-UCI, and the reserved resources.

[0218] It should be understood that for CSI part 2, the set of REs available for transmitting UCI does not include the time-frequency resources for transmitting HARQ-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI), the time-frequency resources for transmitting CG-UCI, and the time-frequency resources for transmitting CSI part 1, and can include the reserved resources.

[0219] Step 4: When UL-SCH is present, determine the time-frequency resources of UL-SCH and put the coded bits of UL-SCH in the time-frequency resources.

[0220] It should be understood that the time-frequency resources of UL-SCH are the set of REs available for transmitting data And deduct the time-frequency resources of HARQ-ACK (or HARQ-ACK and CG-UCI) in step 2, the time-frequency resources of CG-UCI in step 2A, and the time-frequency resources of CSI (including CSI part 1 or CSI part 2) in step 3.

[0221] It should be understood that the time-frequency resources of the UL-SCH can include reserved resources.

[0222] Step 5: When there is HARQ-ACK, the number of bits of HARQ-ACK is less than or equal to 2, and there is no CG-UCI, the encoded bits of HARQ-ACK are placed on the reserved resources, and if the reserved resources already include the encoded bits of UL-SCH or CSI part 2, the encoded bits of HARQ-ACK are used to replace the encoded bits of UL-SCH or CSI part 2 at the reserved resources.

[0223] Step 6: The encoded bits of the RE set for transmitting data are output in the order of space domain first, frequency domain second, and time domain last, and the encoded bit sequence after multiplexing data and UCI is: g0, g1, g2, g3, …, g G-1 .

[0441] Optionally, the first information is carried by DCI, or is configured by RRC, or is configured by RRC and then indicated by DCI.

[0442] Step 2-1: The network device sends second information to the terminal device, and the second information is used to instruct the terminal device to send a first PUSCH on a second resource, and the first PUSCH carries first data.

[0443] Step 2-2: The terminal device receives the second information and determines the second resource according to the second information.

[0444] It should be understood that "data" can be replaced by "transport block (TB)".

[0445] It should be understood that the second resource is the time-frequency resource allocated to the first PUSCH indicated by the second information.

[0446] Optionally, the second information is carried by DCI, or is configured by RRC, or is configured by RRC and then indicated by DCI.

[0447] Optionally, the first resource and the second resource overlap. It should be understood that only when the first resource and the second resource overlap, the technical problem solved by the present disclosure will occur.

[0448] Step 3-1: The network device sends third information to the terminal device, where the third information is used to instruct the terminal device to send a first PUCCH on a fifth resource, and the first PUCCH carries a first UCI.

[0449] Step 3-2: The terminal device receives the third information, and determines the fifth resource according to the third information.

[0450] It should be understood that steps 2 and 3 are not limited in time sequence, including but not limited to the following possibilities: step 2-1→ step 2-2→ step 3-1→ step 3-2, step 2-1→ step 3-1→ step 2-2→ step 3-2, step 3-1→ step 3-2→ step 2-1→ step 2-2, step 3-1→ step 2-1→ step 3-2→ step 2-2.

[0451] It should be understood that the fifth resource is a time-frequency resource allocated to the PUCCH as indicated by the third information.

[0452] Optionally, the third information is carried by DCI, or configured by RRC, or configured by RRC and then indicated by DCI.

[0453] Optionally, the second resource and the fifth resource meet the condition of data and UCI multiplexing.

[0454] Step 4-1: The terminal device determines a third resource and a fourth resource according to the first resource and the second resource, where the third resource is a time-frequency resource available for sending data, and the fourth resource is a time-frequency resource available for sending UCI.

[0455] Step 4-2: The terminal device performs data and UCI multiplexing according to the third resource and the fourth resource.

[0456] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned embodiments 1 and 2 can be independently implemented, or can be implemented in combination with each other.

[0457] Optionally, there are two implementation manners for determining the third resource and the fourth resource according to the first resource and the second resource, including embodiments 1 and 2 as follows:

[0458] Embodiment 1:

[0459] Optionally, the first resource cannot be used for sending data and / or UCI.

[0460] Exemplarily, the third resource is a set of REs available for transmitting data on OFDM symbol l, wherein is the total number of symbols allocated to the first PUSCH, i.e. the number of symbols included in the second resource.

[0461] It should be understood that since the first resource cannot be used for transmitting data and / or UCI and the third resource is a time-frequency resource available for transmitting data, the third resource cannot include the first resource, i.e. wherein denotes a set of REs of the first resource on OFDM symbol l, and denotes the intersection operation of sets, denotes an empty set.

[0462] For example, the fourth resource is a set of REs available for transmitting UCI on OFDM symbol l, wherein is the total number of symbols allocated to the first PUSCH, i.e. the number of symbols included in the second resource.

[0463] It should be understood that since the first resource cannot be used for transmitting data and / or UCI and the fourth resource is a time-frequency resource available for transmitting UCI, the fourth resource cannot include the first resource, i.e. wherein denotes a set of REs of the first resource on OFDM symbol l, and denotes the intersection operation of sets, denotes an empty set.

[0464] Optionally, wherein is the number of REs of the fourth resource on OFDM symbol l, is the number of REs allocated to the first PUSCH, i.e. the number of REs included in the second resource, is the number of REs allocated to PTRS on OFDM symbol l, is the number of REs of the first resource on OFDM symbol l. It should be understood that since the first resource cannot be used for transmitting data and / or UCI, the number of REs included in the first resource needs to be deducted when determining the number of REs included in the fourth resource. It should be understood that this formula is applied to determine the number of modulation coding symbols of UCI multiplexing, i.e. step a of the above-mentioned implementation manner. This scheme is applicable to any UCI type.

[0465] Exemplarily, in the manner of Embodiment 1, the schematic diagrams shown in FIG. 5B and FIG. 5C are obtained. It should be understood that the time-frequency resource corresponding to the first resource cannot be used to transmit data and UCI; and according to step c in the above-mentioned exemplary implementation manner, after the implementation of Embodiment 1, the data and UCI multiplexing will avoid the first resource, rather than replacing the UCI and data with the first resource, i.e., the first resource will not be punctured by the UCI and data.

[0466] Embodiment 2:

[0467] Optionally, the first resource cannot be used to transmit data, and the OFDM symbol included in the first resource cannot be used to transmit UCI.

[0468] Exemplarily, the third resource is i.e., the set of REs available for transmitting data on the OFDM symbol l, wherein is the total number of symbols allocated to the first PUSCH, i.e., the number of symbols included in the second resource.

[0469] It should be understood that, since the first resource cannot be used to transmit data, the third resource is the time-frequency resource available for transmitting data, and therefore the third resource cannot include the first resource, i.e., wherein denotes the set of REs of the first resource on the symbol l, and denotes the intersection operation, denotes the empty set.

[0470] Exemplarily, the fourth resource is i.e., the set of REs available for transmitting UCI on the OFDM symbol l, wherein is the total number of symbols allocated to the first PUSCH, i.e., the number of symbols included in the second resource.

[0471] It should be understood that, since the symbol included in the first resource cannot be used to transmit UCI, and the fourth resource is the time-frequency resource available for transmitting UCI, the fourth resource cannot include the first resource, i.e., for any OFDM symbol carrying the first resource, Optionally, for any OFDM symbol not carrying the first resource,

[0472] Further optionally, for any OFDM symbol carrying the first resource, It should be understood that the formula is applied to determine the number of modulation coded modulation symbols of UCI multiplexing, that is, the content in step a in the above exemplary implementation.

[0473] For example, in the manner of embodiment 2, the schematic diagrams shown in FIG. 5D and FIG. 5E are obtained. It should be understood that the time-frequency resources corresponding to the first resource cannot be used to transmit data and UCI, and the symbols of the first resource cannot be used to transmit UCI. It should be understood that the difference between embodiment 1 and embodiment 2 is that in embodiment 1, UCI can be transmitted on the symbols of the first resource, but in embodiment 2, UCI cannot be transmitted on the symbols of the first resource.

[0474] It should be understood that compared with embodiment 1, the advantage of embodiment 2 is that the first resource can be treated as DMRS, reducing the modification of the chip, and the advantage of method 1 is that more time-frequency resources can be used to transmit UCI.

[0475] It should be understood that the remaining steps in steps 4-1 and 4-2 are consistent with steps a to c in the above exemplary implementation.

[0476] Step 4-3: The terminal device transmits a first PUSCH on the second resource, and the first PUSCH carries the first data and the first UCI.

[0477] Step 4-4: The network device receives the first PUSCH, and determines the first data and the first UCI according to the first PUSCH.

[0478] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, part or all of the steps, and optional implementation manners thereof, can be combined with part or all of the steps in other embodiments, or can be combined with optional implementation manners of other embodiments.

For another example, another apparatus is proposed, and the apparatus includes units or modules for implementing each step performed by a network device (for example, an access network device, a core network function node, a core network device, etc.) in any of the above methods.
