[0242] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term "and / or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which can represent the following three cases: A exists alone, A and B exist together, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally represents that the associated objects before and after it are in an "or" relationship.
[0243] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term "a plurality of" means two or more, and other quantifiers are similar.
[0244] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0245] The related technologies involved in the present disclosure will be introduced as follows:
[0246] 1. The function of the synchronization signal block (SSB);
[0247] The SSB contains basic synchronization information of the base station. The UE obtains the most basic synchronization information and the downlink (DL) channel quality by measuring the SSB. The SSB information is transmitted according to a certain period and can be repeatedly transmitted within the period.
[0248] 2. The function of SIB1;
[0249] A cell always transmits SIB1, which contains basic information that a UE can access the cell, such as a public land mobile network (PLMN), access control information, random access channel (RACH) configuration information, and the like. SIB1 is repeatedly transmitted according to a certain period.
[0250] 3. Basic concept of an on-demand SIB1 scenario;
[0251] A network device always transmits SIB1 according to an agreed period, and SIB1 contains basic information that a UE can access the cell, such as a PLMN, random access (RA) configuration information, and the like. In order to save energy on the network side, the base station can turn off the transmission of SIB1, which also causes the UE to be unable to camp on the cell, and has an impact on cell coverage and network capacity.
[0252] When a UE is in an idle or inactive state, if a certain cell is in an energy-saving state and does not transmit SIB1, but the UE detects the cell based on SSB information of the cell and wants to access the cell, a dedicated acquisition on-demand SIB1 scrambling code (or called preamble) needs to be transmitted to the cell, and a random access response (RAR) message is waited for from the network side. If the UE acquires the RAR transmitted by the network side, it means that a determination message is received from the network side, and then SIB1 is listened to.
[0253] The format of a medium access control (MAC) layer data packet is shown in FIG. 1, which can include multiple MAC sub-protocol data units (sub-PDUs).
[0254] The payload format of the RAR is shown in FIG. 2, which includes timing advance (TA) information and uplink (UL) resource information after successful random access, and temporary cell-radio network temporary identity (T C-RNTI) information.
[0255] The sub-header corresponding to the MAC RAR is as follows:
[0256] E: The Extension field is a flag indicating if the MAC subPDU including this MAC subheader is the last MAC subPDU or not in the MAC PDU. The E field is set to 1 to indicate at least another MAC subPDU follows. The E field is set to 0 to indicate that the MAC subPDU including this MAC subheader is the last MAC subPDU in the MAC PDU;
[0257] T: The Type field is a flag indicating whether the MAC subheader contains a Random Access Preamble ID or a Backoff Indicator. The T field is set to 0 to indicate the presence of a Backoff Indicator field in the subheader (BI). The T field is set to 1 to indicate the presence of a Random Access Preamble ID field in the subheader (RAPID);
[0258] R: Reserved bit, set to 0;
[0259] BI: Backoff Indicator field, identifying the overload condition in the cell. The size of the BI field is 4 bits.
[0260] RAPID: Random Access Preamble IDentifier field, identifying the transmitted Random Access Preamble (see clause 5.1.3). The size of the RAPID field is 6 bits. If the RAPID in the MAC subheader of a MAC subPDU corresponds to one of the Random Access Preambles configured for SI request, MAC RAR is not included in the MAC subPDU.
[0261] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information monitoring method, a terminal, a first network device and a second network device, to solve the problem that the flexibility is poor and the UE power consumption is large when the UE monitors SIB1. The method and the terminal (or the first network device or the second network device) are based on the same application concept. Since the principles of the method and the terminal (or the first network device or the second network device) for solving the problem are similar, the implementation of the method and the terminal (or the first network device or the second network device) can be referred to each other, and the repeated parts will not be described here.
[0262] As shown in FIG. 3, embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information monitoring method, comprising the following steps:
[0263] Step 31: The terminal receives the first resource information for transmitting SIB1 sent by the network device.
[0264] In some embodiments, the first resource information can include time domain resource information and / or frequency domain resource information for providing the terminal to monitor the SIB1 (such as on-demand SIB1), or the first resource information can be used to monitor the SIB1 transmitted on demand by the network device (such as the energy saving cell).
[0265] In some embodiments, the network device can be a network device to which the energy saving cell belongs, or a network device to which the non-energy saving cell belongs, or a network device of a neighboring cell of the energy saving cell, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0266] Step 32: The terminal monitors the SIB1 according to the first resource information.
[0267] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device provides the first resource information for transmitting the SIB1 to the terminal, so that the terminal can know the specific time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for monitoring the SIB1, thereby ensuring that the terminal can effectively monitor the SIB1, having higher flexibility and reducing the power consumption of the terminal for blindly monitoring the SIB1.
[0268] In some embodiments, the first resource information includes at least one of the following:
[0269] One or more time window information for transmitting the SIB1 (or referred to as a time window information set, that is, one time window information set can include one or more time window information for transmitting the SIB1), or first indication information for indicating the one or more time window information for transmitting the SIB1;
[0270] One or more frequency resource information for transmitting the SIB1 (or referred to as a frequency resource information set, that is, one frequency resource information set can include one or more frequency resource information for transmitting the SIB1), or second indication information for indicating the one or more frequency resource information for transmitting the SIB1.
[0271] For example, one time window information for transmitting the SIB1 can include one or more parameters. In some embodiments, the time window information for transmitting the SIB1 can include but is not limited to at least one of the following parameters:
[0272] One or more time domain starting positions for transmitting the SIB1;

[0274] One or more time window lengths for transmitting the SIB1;
[0275] Transmission position of the SIB1 within the time window for transmitting the SIB1;
[0276] The number of repeated transmissions of SIB1 within the time window for transmitting SIB1.
[0277] For example, in the case that the time window information for transmitting SIB1 includes one or more time domain starting positions for transmitting SIB1 and one or more time window lengths for transmitting SIB1, if 2 pieces of time window information are configured or indicated in the first resource information, the following parameters are included in time window information 1: one or more time domain starting positions for transmitting SIB1 and one or more time window lengths for transmitting SIB1, and the following parameters are included in time window information 2: one or more time domain starting positions for transmitting SIB1 and one or more time window lengths for transmitting SIB1. In some embodiments, the values of the parameters included in time window information 1 and time window information 2 can be completely different, or partially the same, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this regard.
[0278] It should be noted that the above is an example for the case that the time window information for transmitting SIB1 includes one or more time domain starting positions for transmitting SIB1 and one or more time window lengths for transmitting SIB1, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this regard. Correspondingly, the frequency resource information for transmitting SIB1 can also include one or more parameters, such as frequency points and bandwidths, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this regard.
[0279] For another example, in the case that one or more pieces of time window information for transmitting SIB1 are configured or indicated by the network side device based on a protocol agreement or by the network side device, the network device can indicate one or more pieces of time window information for transmitting SIB1 to the terminal through the first indication information based on the time window information configured or indicated by the network side device based on the protocol agreement or by the network side device, such as the first indication information can be used to indicate the index of one or more pieces of time window information, such as one index can correspond to one piece of time window information, and one piece of time window information can include one or more parameters, which can be referred to the above embodiments and will not be described here.
[0280] For another example, in the case that one or more pieces of frequency domain resource information for transmitting SIB1 are configured or indicated by the network side device based on a protocol agreement or by the network side device, the network device can indicate one or more pieces of frequency domain resource information for transmitting SIB1 to the terminal through the second indication information based on the frequency domain resource information configured or indicated by the network side device based on the protocol agreement or by the network side device, such as the second indication information can be used to indicate the index of one or more pieces of frequency domain resource information, such as one index can correspond to one piece of frequency domain resource information, and one piece of time window information can include one or more parameters, which can be referred to the above embodiments and will not be described here.
[0281] In some embodiments, in the case that the time domain resource information and the frequency domain resource information are included in the first resource information, the first indication information and the second indication information can be different index values, such as based on a protocol independent time window information and frequency domain resource information, or time window information and frequency domain resource information independently configured or indicated by the network side device, i.e., the time domain resource information and the frequency domain resource information have independent index values, which can have higher flexibility; or the first indication information and the second indication information can be the same index value, such as based on a protocol that one index value corresponds to one time window information and one frequency domain resource information, or one index corresponds to one time window information and one frequency domain resource information configured or indicated by the network side device (i.e., the time domain resource information and the frequency domain resource information can have a common index value, so that the time domain resource and the frequency domain resource can be configured by one index value to reduce signaling overhead.
[0282] In some embodiments, the index and the time window information and / or the frequency domain resource information corresponding to the index can be pre-configured or pre-stored at the terminal side.
[0283] In some embodiments, the terminal receives the first resource information for transmitting SIB1 sent by the network device, including:
[0284] The terminal receives the random access response message sent by the first network device; wherein the random access response message contains the first resource information; for example, the first network device includes a network device to which the energy saving cell belongs; for example, the terminal can initiate a SIB1 related random access process to the network device to which the energy saving cell belongs, and the network device to which the energy saving cell belongs can provide the terminal with the first resource information for transmitting SIB1 in the RAR message, so that the terminal can effectively perform SIB1 monitoring under the condition of knowing the specific time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for listening to SIB1, and the network device can also reduce additional signaling overhead based on the RAR message to notify the terminal of the first resource information for transmitting SIB1.
[0285] Or,
[0286] Before the terminal initiates the random access process, the first signaling sent by the first network device is received; wherein the first signaling contains the first resource information; for example, the first network device includes a network device to which the energy saving cell belongs; for example, the network device to which the energy saving cell belongs can provide the terminal with the first resource information for listening to SIB1 before the terminal initiates the random access process, and the terminal can initiate a SIB1 related random access process to the energy saving cell as needed, so that the terminal can effectively perform SIB1 monitoring because the terminal has learned the specific time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for listening to SIB1 before initiating the random access process.

[0292] For example, the first network device or the second network device can provide the terminal with the first resource information for transmitting the SIB1 in a wake-up signal configuration process of the SIB1 before the terminal initiates the random access procedure. For example, the first network device can add the first resource information in the first signaling carrying the wake-up signal configuration information of the SIB1; wherein the wake-up signal configuration information of the SIB1 and the first resource information can use independent information fields in the first signaling, or the first resource information can multiplex the information field of the wake-up signal configuration information of the SIB1 (that is, the wake-up signal configuration information contains the first resource information, or the first resource information is carried in the information field of the wake-up signal configuration information).

[0377] In some embodiments, in the case that the second network device determines the first resource information, the method further comprises:

According to different application scenarios, the base station can also be referred to as an access point, or can be a device in an access network that communicates with wireless terminals over an air interface through one or more sectors, or other names. The network device can be used to exchange received air frames and Internet Protocol (IP) packets as a router between wireless terminals and the rest of the access network, which can include an Internet Protocol (IP) communication network.

For example, the network device related to the embodiments of the present disclosure can be a network device (Base Transceiver Station, BTS) in the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) or Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), and can also be a network device (NodeB) in Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), and can also be an evolved network device (eNB or e-NodeB) in a long term evolution (LTE) system, a 5G base station (gNB) in a next generation system, and can also be a home evolved Node B (HeNB), a relay node, a femto, a pico, a 6G base station, etc., which are not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. In some network structures, the network device can include a centralized unit (CU) node and a distributed unit (DU) node, and the centralized unit and the distributed unit can also be arranged geographically apart.
[0381] The interaction process of the information monitoring method of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below by taking the transmission of on-demand SIB1 as an example.
[0382] Embodiment one: indicating first resource information for transmitting on-demand SIB1 in RAR.
[0383] As shown in FIG. 6, the specific steps include the following steps:
[0384] Step 61: UE sends on-demand SIB1 related random access preamble to the base station 1 (gNB1) of the energy saving cell (NES cell).
[0385] For example: UE sends on-demand SIB1 related random access preamble according to demand, and waits to receive RAR message.
[0386] Step 62: UE receives the RAR message sent by gNB1, which contains first resource information or contains indication information for indicating whether to reject sending on-demand SIB1.
[0387] The first resource information is used for transmitting on-demand SIB1; in some embodiments, the first resource information includes at least one of the following:
[0388] One or more time window information of transmitting SIB1, or first indication information for indicating the one or more time window information of transmitting SIB1;
[0389] One or more frequency resource information of transmitting SIB1, or second indication information for indicating the one or more frequency resource information of transmitting SIB1.
[0390] In some embodiments, the time window information of transmitting SIB1 includes at least one of the following:
[0391] One or more time domain starting positions of transmitting SIB1;
[0392] One or more time domain ending positions of transmitting SIB1;
[0393] One or more time window lengths of transmitting SIB1;
[0394] Transmission position of SIB1 within the time window of transmitting SIB1;
[0395] Repetition transmission times of SIB1 within the time window of transmitting SIB1.
[0396] In some embodiments, the RAR message can also contain indication information for indicating whether to reject sending on-demand SIB1. For example: if the RAR message contains indication information for indicating to reject sending on-demand SIB1, gNB1 will not send SIB1 to UE; if the RAR message does not contain indication information for indicating whether to reject sending on-demand SIB1, or the RAR message contains indication information for indicating to send on-demand SIB1, gNB1 can send SIB1 to UE, that is, step 63a: gNB1 sends SIB1 to UE.
[0397] In some embodiments, the RAR message can be sent independently of the first resource information. For example, the first resource can be pre-configured by the network side or stored by the UE. After the UE sends a random access preamble for requesting an on-demand SIB1, the UE monitors the RAR message. If the RAR message received by the UE includes indication information indicating that the on-demand SIB1 is not sent, it is considered that the network side refuses to send the on-demand SIB1 message. The UE can consider that the cell is prohibited to access, or attempt to re-initiate a random access procedure for obtaining the on-demand SIB1. If the RAR message received by the UE does not include indication information indicating whether the on-demand SIB1 is sent, the UE considers that the network side will subsequently send the on-demand SIB1 message, and the UE can monitor the on-demand SIB1 message according to the first resource information pre-configured by the network side or stored by the UE. In some embodiments, if the RAR message received by the UE includes indication information indicating that the on-demand SIB1 is sent, the UE considers that the network side will subsequently send the on-demand SIB1 message according to the indication information, and the UE can monitor the on-demand SIB1 message according to the first resource information pre-configured by the network side or stored by the UE.
[0398] Step 63b: The UE monitors the on-demand SIB1 or re-initiates the on-demand SIB1 request procedure.
[0399] In some embodiments, the UE monitors the on-demand SIB1 according to the indication of the RAR message. For example, the RAR message includes the first resource information (which can not include indication information indicating that the on-demand SIB1 is not sent), and the UE monitors the data of the on-demand SIB1 according to the first resource information indicated by the RAR message, or the RAR message includes indication information indicating that the on-demand SIB1 is sent, and the UE monitors the SIB1. For another example, the UE does not monitor the on-demand SIB1 on the first resource information, or the RAR message includes indication information indicating that the on-demand SIB1 is not sent, and the UE can re-initiate the on-demand SIB1 request procedure.
[0400] Embodiment two: The gNB1 of the NES cell sends the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to the neighbor base station (gNB2), and the neighbor base station configures the related information to the UE.
[0401] As shown in FIG. 7, the method specifically includes the following steps:
[0402] Step 71: The gNB1 supporting the NES cell sends first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to the gNB2, and in some embodiments, the first resource information includes at least one of the following:
[0403] time window information for transmitting the SIB1, or first indication information for indicating the time window information for transmitting the SIB1;
[0404] frequency resource information for transmitting the SIB1, or second indication information for indicating the frequency resource information for transmitting the SIB1.
[0405] In some embodiments, the time window information for transmitting the SIB1 includes at least one of the following:
[0406] a time domain start position of the time window for transmitting the SIB1;
[0407] a time domain end position of the time window for transmitting the SIB1;
[0408] a time window length of the time window for transmitting the SIB1;
[0409] a transmission position of the SIB1 within the time window for transmitting the SIB1;
[0410] a number of repeated transmissions of the SIB1 within the time window for transmitting the SIB1.
[0411] Step 72: The gNB2 sends wake-up signal (WUS) configuration information of the SIB1 and the first resource information to the UE.
[0412] Specifically, the gNB2 can send the WUS configuration information of the SIB1 and the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to the UE through a new SIB, an existing SIB, or RRC dedicated signaling (such as an RRC reconfiguration message or an RRC release message, etc.).
[0413] Step 73: The UE initiates an on-demand SIB1 related random access procedure.
[0414] Specifically, the UE reads the WUS configuration information and the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1, initiates an on-demand SIB1 related random access procedure when needed, i.e., sends an on-demand SIB1 related random access preamble, and waits for a RAR message sent by the gNB1 of the NES cell.
[0415] Step 74: The UE monitors the on-demand SIB1 or re-initiates the random access procedure.
[0416] Specifically, if the RAR message is received successfully, it means that the network successfully acquires the random access related to the on-demand SIB1, and the UE can monitor the on-demand SIB1 according to the first resource information.
[0417] In some embodiments, the RAR message can include further configuration of the first resource information, such as the RAR message can carry third indication information for activating the first resource information, or determining the time window information and / or frequency domain resource information for monitoring the on-demand SIB1 based on the first resource information, or indicating the activated time window information and / or frequency domain resource information, etc., to help the UE determine the time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for SIB1 transmission. In some embodiments, as shown in step 74a, the gNB1 can send the SIB1 to the UE.
[0418] If the RAR message is not received, the UE can re-initiate the random access procedure (i.e., re-send the random access preamble). When the number of times of sending the random access preamble is equal to the maximum number of times plus one, the UE considers that the RA procedure of the on-demand SIB1 fails, and the NES cell is considered as a cell that is forbidden to access.
[0419] Embodiment three: The non-NES cell that sends the WUS configuration information self-configures the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1.
[0420] As shown in FIG. 8, it specifically includes the following steps:
[0421] Step 81: The gNB1 of the NES cell sends the WUS configuration information to the gNB2.
[0422] Step 82: The gNB2 sends the WUS configuration information and the first resource information defined by itself for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to the UE.
[0423] Specifically, the gNB2 can send the WUS configuration information and the first resource information to the UE through a new SIB, an existing SIB, RRC dedicated signaling (such as RRC reconfiguration message or RRC release message, etc.).
[0424] In some embodiments, the first resource information includes at least one of
[0425] one or more time window information for transmitting the SIB1, or first indication information for indicating the one or more time window information for transmitting the SIB1;
[0426] one or more frequency resources for transmitting the SIB1, or second indication information for indicating the one or more frequency resources for transmitting the SIB1.
[0427] In some embodiments, the time window information for transmitting the SIB1 comprises at least one of:
[0428] a time domain start position of the one or more frequency resources for transmitting the SIB1;
[0429] a time domain end position of the one or more frequency resources for transmitting the SIB1;
[0430] a time window length of the one or more frequency resources for transmitting the SIB1;
[0431] a transmission position of the SIB1 within the time window for transmitting the SIB1;
[0432] a number of repeated transmissions of the SIB1 within the time window for transmitting the SIB1.
[0433] Step 83: gNB2 sends the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to gNB1, so that gNB1 determines the resource position for sending the SIB1.
[0434] Step 84: UE initiates the random access procedure related to the on-demand SIB1.
[0435] Specifically, UE reads the WUS configuration information and the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1, initiates the random access procedure related to the on-demand SIB1 when needed, i.e. sends the random access preamble related to the on-demand SIB1, and waits for the RAR message sent by gNB1 of the NES cell.
[0436] Step 85: UE listens to the on-demand SIB1 or re-initiates the random access procedure.
[0437] Specifically, if the RAR message is successfully received, it means that the network successfully acquires the random access related to the on-demand SIB1, and UE can listen to the on-demand SIB1 according to the first resource information.
[0438] In some embodiments, further configuration of the first resource information can be included in the RAR message, such as the RAR message can carry third indication information for activating the first resource information, or determining the time window information and / or frequency domain resource information for listening to the on-demand SIB1 based on the first resource information, or indicating the activated time window information and / or frequency domain resource information, etc., to help the UE to determine the time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for SIB1 transmission. In some embodiments, as step 85a: gNB1 can send SIB1 to the UE.
[0439] If the reception of the RAR message fails, the UE can re-initiate the random access procedure (i.e., re-send the random access preamble). When the number of times of sending the random access preamble is equal to the maximum number of times + 1, the UE considers that the RA procedure for the on-demand SIB1 fails, and the NES cell is considered as a cell that is forbidden to access.
[0440] Embodiment four: the gNB1 of the NES cell sends the WUS configuration information and the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1.
[0441] As shown in FIG. 9, it specifically includes the following steps:
[0442] Step 91: the gNB1 of the NES cell sends the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to the UE.
[0443] For example: there may be a UE supporting NES features camping in the NES cell. In this case, the gNB1 of the NES cell also needs to send the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 to the UE.
[0444] Specifically, the gNB1 can send the WUS configuration information and the first resource information to the UE through a new SIB, an existing SIB, or RRC dedicated signaling (such as RRC reconfiguration message or RRC release message, etc.).
[0445] In some embodiments, the first resource information includes at least one of
[0446] One or more time window information for transmitting SIB1, or first indication information for indicating the one or more time window information for transmitting SIB1;
[0447] One or more frequency resource information for transmitting SIB1, or second indication information for indicating the one or more frequency resource information for transmitting SIB1.
[0448] In some embodiments, the time window information for transmitting SIB1 includes at least one of
[0449] one or more time-domain start positions of the transmission of SIB1;
[0450] one or more time-domain end positions of the transmission of SIB1;
[0451] one or more time window lengths of the transmission of SIB1;
[0452] one or more transmission positions of SIB1 within the time window of the transmission of SIB1;
[0453] one or more repetition times of SIB1 within the time window of the transmission of SIB1.
[0454] Step 92: The UE initiates an on-demand SIB1 related random access procedure.
[0455] Specifically, the UE reads the WUS configuration information and the first resource information for the transmission of on-demand SIB1, initiates an on-demand SIB1 related random access procedure when needed, i.e., sends an on-demand SIB1 related random access preamble, and waits for the RAR message sent by the NES cell.
[0456] Step 93: The UE monitors on-demand SIB1 or re-initiates a random access procedure.
[0457] Specifically, if the RAR message is successfully received, it means that the network successfully acquires the on-demand SIB1 related random access, and the UE can monitor on-demand SIB1 according to the first resource information.
[0458] In some embodiments, the RAR message can include further configuration of the first resource information, such as the RAR message can carry third indication information for activating the first resource information, or determining the time window information and / or frequency domain resource information for monitoring on-demand SIB1 based on the first resource information, or indicating the activated time window information and / or frequency domain resource information, etc., to help the UE determine the time domain resource and / or frequency domain resource for SIB1 transmission. In some embodiments, as step 93a: gNB1 can send SIB1 to the UE.
[0459] If the RAR message is not successfully received, the UE can re-initiate a random access procedure (i.e., resend a random access preamble). When the number of times of sending the random access preamble is equal to the maximum number of times + 1, the UE considers that the RA procedure of on-demand SIB1 fails, and the NES cell is considered to be a cell with prohibited access.
[0460] In some embodiments, the UE can also acquire the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 in a predefined manner. For example, the UE, according to the predefined first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1, listens to the on-demand SIB1 according to the first resource information in the case of sending a random access preamble and successfully receiving a random access response message. Alternatively, the UE listens to the on-demand SIB1 according to an element in the predefined first resource information indicated by the RAR message or the base station. For example, the base station, which can be gNB1 or gNB2, can indicate the element in the predefined first resource information to the UE through the RAR message or other signaling. For example, the element in the first resource information includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: one of the time window information of the plurality of transmission SIB1s included in the first resource information, one of the frequency domain resource information of the plurality of transmission SIB1s included in the first resource information, one of the time domain starting positions of the plurality of transmission SIB1s included in the time window information of the transmission SIB1, one of the time domain ending positions of the plurality of transmission SIB1s included in the time window information of the transmission SIB1, one of the time window lengths of the plurality of transmission SIB1s included in the time window information of the transmission SIB1, and the like.
[0461] It should be noted that "transmission" includes sending and / or receiving. For the network side, the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 refers to the first resource information for sending the on-demand SIB1. For the terminal side, the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1 refers to the first resource information for receiving the on-demand SIB1.
[0462] It should also be noted that the WUS configuration information in the embodiments of the present disclosure is the configuration information of the preamble for the on-demand SIB1, including the resource information of the preamble and the sequence information of the preamble. In some embodiments, these information can be collectively referred to as information for acquiring the on-demand SIB1 together with the first resource information for transmitting the on-demand SIB1.
