Description
Transmission method, apparatus and communication device of sounding reference signal (SRS) and storage medium
[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0002] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202411318669.5, filed on September 20, 2024, and entitled “Transmission method, apparatus and communication device of sounding reference signal (SRS) and storage medium”, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present application belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a transmission method, apparatus and communication device of sounding reference signal (SRS) and storage medium. BACKGROUND
[0004] The sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission based on non-codebook refers to that, when performing uplink transmission, the transmission is not dependent on a predefined codebook. This transmission mode does not indicate a transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI), but is based on channel reciprocity. The terminal can apply precoding information when transmitting the SRS, and the SRS is no longer limited by a specific codebook. In this case, the signaling overhead of TPMI indication can be avoided. This transmission mode allows the terminal to calculate the precoding information according to the relevant channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) by itself, and then adjust the transmission of the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).
[0005] In order to improve the resource utilization, the CSI-RS overhead can be reduced by increasing the CSI-RS period. However, in this case, for the Non-codebook transmission, there is not enough CSI-RS for the terminal to timely adjust the Non-codebook uplink transmission parameters, such as the precoding information of the SRS transmission and the precoding information of the PUSCH transmission, according to the CSI-RS measurement, thereby reducing the uplink transmission gain. SUMMARY

[0033] Therefore, when the CSI-RS period is large, the transmission time distance between the CSI-RS and the first SRS is relatively far, so that the transmission parameter measured based on the CSI-RS is not matched with the uplink channel when the first SRS is transmitted, and thus the transmission performance is poor. In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS, so as to compensate for the lack of CSI-RS caused by the large CSI-RS period, and thus the uplink transmission gain can be improved.

It needs to be explained that in the embodiments of the present application, only the base station in the NR system is taken as an example for introduction, and the specific type of the base station is not limited.
[0055] In order to facilitate understanding of the transmission method of the sounding reference signal SRS in the embodiments of the present application, first, the following related technologies are introduced:
[0056] One, Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) configuration in the 15th version of the protocol of NR (R15), DMRS is used for channel estimation, the related DMRS configuration information is determined through downlink control information (DCI), in the current NR system, the number of DMRS ports is equal to the number of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) stream.
[0057] For the DMRS of data channel, according to the type of DMRS, it can be divided into: DMRS configuration type 1 and DMRS configuration type 2, and both kinds of DMRS configuration types support single symbol and double symbol structure. Among them, the single symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 1 supports a maximum of 4 ports, and the double symbol structure supports a maximum of 8 ports; The single symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 2 supports a maximum of 6 ports, and the double symbol structure supports a maximum of 12 ports. In addition, DMRS configuration type 1 supports 2 Code Division Multiplexing (CDM) groups, while DMRS configuration type 2 supports 3 CDM groups.
[0058] Among them, DMRS configuration type 1 (DMRS configuration type 1) is shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3; In FIG. 2, the single symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 1 supports 4 ports, and each CDM group includes 2 ports; In FIG. 3, the double symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 1 supports 8 ports, and each CDM group includes 4 ports.
[0059] DMRS configuration type 2 (DMRS configuration type 2) is shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5; In FIG. 4, the single symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 2 supports 6 ports, and each CDM group includes 2 ports; In FIG. 5, the double symbol structure of DMRS configuration type 2 supports 12 ports, and each CDM group includes 4 ports.
[0060] In addition, in R18 of NR, the length of the Frequency Domain Orthogonal Cover Code (FD-OCC) sequence is 4, and the ports in each CDM group are doubled, then for DMRS configuration type 1, the single-symbol structure will support a maximum of 8 ports, and the double-symbol structure will support a maximum of 16 ports; for DMRS configuration type 2, the single-symbol structure will support a maximum of 12 ports, and the double-symbol structure will support a maximum of 24 ports. In addition, in R18, the number of PUSCH data streams for each terminal will also be expanded from the original maximum of 4 streams to a maximum of 8 streams. That is, the corresponding DMRS of the PUSCH transmitted by each terminal will also need to be multiplexed by a maximum of 8 ports. However, is it to use the existing DMRS port for multiplexing, or is it to use the enhanced DMRS port in Rel18 for multiplexing, which depends on the capability of the terminal.
[0061] II. Channel State Information (CSI) measurement based on DMRS
[0062] Current CSI measurement is based on Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS), and with the further increase in the number of CSI-RS ports, frequent CSI measurement may make the overhead of CSI-RS unacceptable. Therefore, it can be considered to increase the period of CSI-RS-based CSI measurement, and within one CSI-RS-based CSI measurement period, to obtain the local channel CSI or reduce the overhead of CSI-RS through DMRS-based CSI measurement.
[0063] III. SRS based on codebook
[0064] SRS for codebook based PUSCH transmission. Specifically, the network side configures the UE with SRS resource sets for codebook, each SRS resource set contains at most 2 SRS resources. The network side obtains the uplink channel for PUSCH transmission by measuring the SRS, and indicates the UE PUSCH transmission parameters based on the measurement. For example, the SRS resource associated with the PUSCH transmission is indicated by the SRS resource indication (SRI) field in the DCI scheduling the PUSCH, the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) indication field indicates the modulation and code rate of the PUSCH transmission, the transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) indication field indicates the precoding information, etc. The antenna ports of the PUSCH transmission are the same as the antenna ports of the SRS ports indicated by the DCI.
[0065] Four, codebook based PUSCH transmission mode
[0066] The network side configures the UE with SRS resource sets for codebook based transmission, each resource set contains at least one SRS resource. The UE transmits SRS according to the configured at least one SRS resource, the network side obtains the uplink channel by receiving the SRS, and determines the precoding matrix, MCS, etc. of the UE uplink data bearing channel PUSCH transmission based on this, and notifies the UE through the downlink control information DCI.
[0067] The UE receives the DCI scheduling the PUSCH, and the precoding information and layer (TPMI) field in the DCI selects a precoding matrix for the scheduled PUSCH transmission from a predefined codebook, where the indication of 4 port transmission is shown in Table 1. The UE will map the uplink data to the PUSCH resource after precoding according to the indicated TPMI for transmission.
[0068] Table 1: Precoding information and number of layers for 4 antenna ports without transmission precoding
[0069] Where maxRank = 2 or 3 or 4.
[0070] Five, SRS based on antenna switching
[0071] The SRS based on antenna switching is used for PDSCH transmission. The network side configures a SRS resource set for the UE, and the network side obtains the uplink channel by measuring the SRS, and assumes that the downlink channel of the PDSCH transmission is consistent with the measured uplink channel based on the channel reciprocity assumption, and then obtains the transmission parameters based on the channel of the PDSCH.
[0072] The UE can report the antenna switching capability according to its own implementation, including 1T2R, 2T4R, 1T4R, xTxR (x = 1, 2, 4), where T represents the transmission port and R represents the reception port. When the transmission port is equal to the reception port, that is, xTxR (x = 1, 2, 4), the network side can configure the number of ports of each SRS resource in the SRS resource set to be equal to x, and the network side can obtain the downlink transmission channel by measuring one SRS resource. When the transmission port is less than the reception port, the network side can obtain the downlink transmission channel by measuring multiple SRS resources. Taking 2T4R as an example to illustrate this process. As shown in FIG. 6, the UE has four reception ports, but only two transmission ports. In order for the network side to obtain the downlink channel when the four reception ports are received, the network side will configure at least two SRS resources, each of which corresponds to two SRS ports, and the two SRS resources are associated with different antenna ports. At the position of OFDM symbol l0 in slot n, the UE transmits an SRS associated with antenna ports 0 and 1, and at the position of OFDM symbol l2 in slot n+1, the UE transmits an SRS associated with antenna ports 2 and 3. The network side can obtain the 4RX channel by measuring the two SRSs.
[0073] The transmission method of the SRS provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail in combination with some embodiments and application scenarios thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0074] Referring to FIG. 7, the embodiments of the present application provide a transmission method of a sounding reference signal SRS, which can include the following steps 701 to 702:
[0075] Step 701: The terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS.
[0076] Wherein, DMRS represents a demodulation reference signal.
[0077] In addition, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for the non-codebook-based transmission according to the first DMRS, which indicates that the first DMRS is a downlink reference signal (reference DL RS) for the first SRS for the non-codebook-based transmission. It can be seen that in the embodiment of the application, the terminal can determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS for the non-codebook-based transmission.
[0078] It should be noted that the first SRS for the non-codebook-based transmission can also be understood as the first SRS for the non-codebook-based transmission.
[0079] Optionally, the first DMRS includes a DMRS of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and the PDSCH includes at least one of dynamically scheduled PDSCH and semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) PDSCH.
[0080] Optionally, the first SRS includes SRSs corresponding to at least part of resources in at least one SRS resource set. For example, the first SRS corresponds to one SRS resource set, or the first SRS corresponds to all SRS resources of one SRS resource set, or the first SRS corresponds to part of SRS resources of one SRS resource set. Optionally, the first DMRS is used to determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS resource set for the non-codebook-based transmission. Optionally, in the embodiment of the application, if the number of first DMRSs is multiple, the first SRS corresponds to multiple SRS resource sets; for example, multiple DMRSs correspond to multiple PDSCHs, and the multiple PDSCHs come from multiple transmitting and receiving points (TRPs), and then the multiple SRSs also correspond to the multiple TRPs respectively.
[0081] Step 702: The terminal transmits the first SRS according to the first transmission parameter.
[0082] Optionally, the first transmission parameter includes at least one of a first resource of the first SRS and precoding information. That is, in the embodiment of the application, the terminal can determine at least one of the first resource and the precoding information of the first SRS for the non-codebook-based transmission according to the first DMRS, so that the terminal can transmit the first SRS using at least one of the precoding information and the first resource.
[0083] As can be seen from steps 701 to 702, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS, and then transmit the first SRS according to the first transmission parameter. As can be seen, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can take the first DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission, so that the terminal can determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS.
[0084] When the transmission time distance between the downlink reference signal and the first SRS is relatively short, the channel of the first SRS and the channel of the downlink reference signal are reciprocal, and thus the transmission parameter measured based on the downlink reference signal is more suitable for the uplink channel when the first SRS is transmitted. Conversely, if the transmission time distance between the downlink reference signal and the first SRS is relatively long, the transmission parameter measured based on the downlink reference signal is less suitable for the uplink channel when the first SRS is transmitted, and thus the transmission performance is poor.
[0085] Therefore, when the CSI-RS period is large, the transmission time distance between the CSI-RS and the first SRS is relatively long, so that the transmission parameter measured based on the CSI-RS is less suitable for the uplink channel when the first SRS is transmitted, and thus the transmission performance is poor. In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal can determine the transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS, so as to compensate for the lack of CSI-RS caused by a large CSI-RS period, thereby improving the uplink transmission gain.
[0086] It should be noted that for non-codebook transmission, the terminal can measure the downlink reference signal associated with the first SRS to determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS. When the first transmission parameter includes precoding information, in an embodiment, the terminal can determine the reception precoding information of the downlink reference signal as the precoding information used for transmitting the first SRS. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, when the terminal takes the DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, the terminal can take the precoding information used for receiving the DMRS as the precoding information used for transmitting the first SRS.
[0087] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the DMRS can also be replaced by other DL RSs except for the CSI-RS, such as a positioning reference signal (PRS), a RS for sensing, a tracking reference signal (TRS) for time-frequency tracking, and the like. These DL RSs can also assist as the DL reference RS for non-codebook SRS transmission in the case of insufficient CSI-RS.
[0088] Optionally, the first DMRS comprises at least one of the following A-1 to A-4:
[0089] A-1: The DMRS of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) scheduled by the first control signaling; that is, the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook-based transmission can be determined according to the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the first control signaling.
[0090] Optionally, the first control signaling is further used to trigger or activate the transmission of the first SRS. That is, when the first control signaling is used to schedule a PDSCH and to trigger or activate the transmission of the first SRS for non-codebook-based transmission, the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook-based transmission can be determined according to the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the first control signaling.
[0091] Optionally, the first SRS triggered by the first control signaling is an aperiodic SRS. Optionally, the first SRS activated by the first control signaling is a semi-persistent SRS.
[0092] Optionally, the first control signaling can also be referred to as control signaling associated with DMRS transmission.
[0093] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the control signaling can also be referred to as 'control command / information / message', or 'configuration signaling / command / information / message', or 'indication signaling / command / information / message'.
[0094] Optionally, the first control signaling comprises at least one of the following:
[0095] Radio Resource Control (RRC), Media Access Control Control Element (MAC CE), DCI, signaling for configuration, signaling for activation, signaling for deactivation, signaling for scheduling a PDSCH.
[0096] Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 8, when the first control signaling includes DCI, the first SRS can be triggered by the DCI, and the DCI is also used to schedule PDSCH, and the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI can be used as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS. In this example, one DCI is used to trigger SRS transmission and simultaneously used to schedule PDSCH, and when the temporary SRS (such as aperiodic SRS) is transmitted, the first transmission parameter can be obtained in time according to the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the same DCI (i.e., the DCI triggering the SRS). Moreover, for the SRS and the DMRS indicated by the same DCI, the DMRS can be directly associated with the SRS, and the DMRS as the downlink reference signal can be more accurately indicated to the terminal, thereby solving the problem that the transmission parameter of the non-codebook SRS cannot be updated in time when the CSI-RS period is large, and further improving the uplink transmission gain.
[0097] It should be noted that, in the case that the first control signaling includes DCI, the DCI includes but is not limited to at least one of DCI 1-1 and DCI 1-2; wherein the DCI can also be referred to as DCI scheduling PDSCH, or downlink (DL) DCI.
[0098] Optionally, the first SRS satisfies at least one of the following A-1.1 to A-1.3:
[0099] A-1.1: The transmission time of the first SRS is after the transmission time of the first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), wherein the first PUCCH is used to carry feedback information of the PDSCH scheduled by the first control signaling; optionally, the feedback information can include hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK).
[0100] It should be noted that the first control signaling is used to schedule the PDSCH, and the terminal needs to send feedback information after receiving the PDSCH, therefore, if the network side device receives the feedback information, the network side device can confirm that the terminal successfully detects the first control signaling. Further, the network side device can confirm that the terminal can successfully measure the DMRS and determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS based on the DMRS measurement.

[0107] It should be noted that the association between the SRS and the DMRS in the text means that the DMRS can be used as the downlink reference signal of the SRS, or the transmission parameters of the SRS can be determined according to the DMRS.
[0108] In addition, for the above A-1.4 to A-1.5:
[0109] In an embodiment, the terminal can determine or save the first transmission parameter of the SRS according to the DMRS measurement based on the content of at least one of A-1.4 to A-1.5 indicated by the first control signaling; it should be noted that in the prior art, the DMRS is only used for channel estimation, and the first transmission parameter of the SRS is not obtained or saved.

[0142] A-3: the DMRS satisfying the first condition, wherein the first condition includes at least one of the following: a transmission time limit condition, the DMRS being indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS;
[0143] It should be noted that, in the case where the first condition only includes the transmission time limit condition, it can be understood that there is no restriction condition for whether the DMRS is indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, and only the DMRS satisfying the transmission time limit condition can be the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0144] Similarly, in the case where the first condition only includes the DMRS being indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, it can be understood that there is no transmission time limit condition, and the DMRS indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS can be the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0145] In the case where the first condition includes the transmission time limit condition and the DMRS being indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, only the DMRS satisfying the transmission time limit condition and being indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS can be the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0146] A-4: the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the control signaling satisfying the first condition.
[0147] The DMRS can be indicated by the control signaling scheduling the PDSCH as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0148] Optionally, the transmission time limit condition includes at least one of the following A-3.1 to A-3.4:
[0149] A-3.1: the transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the control signaling is before the transmission time of the first object, wherein the first object includes one of the following: the first SRS, the control signaling for triggering or activating the transmission of the first SRS;

[0156] In order to facilitate understanding of A-3 to A-4, the following examples are given:
[0157] As a first example: with respect to the transmission time of the first SRS, the terminal can take the DMRS satisfying the first specific time limit, or satisfying the specific condition limit, as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS; or the terminal can obtain the first DCI satisfying the first specific time limit, or satisfying the specific condition limit, so as to take the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the first DCI as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0158] The first specific time limit can include at least one of the following:
[0159] There is no time limit;
[0160] The transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the first DCI is before the transmission time of the first SRS;
[0161] The transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the first DCI is closest to the transmission time of the first SRS;
[0162] The interval between the transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the first DCI and the transmission time of the first SRS is not less than a first threshold;
[0163] The interval between the transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the first DCI and the transmission time of the first SRS is not greater than a second threshold.
[0164] The specific condition limit can include at least one of the following:
[0165] There is no condition limit;
[0166] The DMRS is indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0167] As a second example: when the first SRS is triggered by the second DCI, the terminal can take the DMRS that meets the second specific time limit and the specific condition limit as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS with respect to the transmission time of the second DCI; or the terminal can obtain the third DCI that meets the second specific time limit and the specific condition limit, and thus take the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the third DCI as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS;
[0168] The second specific time limit can include at least one of the following:
[0169] There is no time limit;
[0170] The transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the third DCI is before the transmission time of the second DCI;
[0171] The transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the third DCI is closest to the transmission time of the second DCI;
[0172] The interval between the transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the third DCI and the transmission time of the second DCI is not less than a first threshold;
[0173] The interval between the transmission time of the DMRS or the transmission time of the third DCI and the transmission time of the second DCI is not greater than a second threshold.
[0174] The specific condition restriction can include at least one of the following:
[0175] There is no condition restriction.
[0176] The DMRS is indicated as a downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0177] It should be noted that the values of the first threshold in the above first example and the second example can be the same or different; the values of the second threshold in the above first example and the second example can be the same or different.
[0178] In addition, optionally, the first DMRS further includes a DMRS associated with the same target identifier as the first SRS; it should be noted that the DMRS can be associated with a target identifier, and the first SRS can be associated with a target identifier, but the target identifier associated with the DMRS here does not mean the identifier of the DMRS, and the target identifier associated with the first SRS does not mean the identifier of the first SRS; wherein if a DMRS and a first SRS are associated with the same target identifier, the DMRS is associated with the first SRS (i.e. the DMRS can be used as a downlink reference signal of the first SRS); the target identifier can be understood as a specific identifier.
[0179] Optionally, the target identifier associated with the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the first control signaling scheduling the PDSCH is carried by the first control signaling; and the target identifier associated with the first SRS is carried by the second control signaling related to the transmission of the first SRS.
[0180] Optionally, in the step 701, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS, including:
[0181] The terminal determines the first transmission parameter according to the first information of the first DMRS;
[0182] The first information includes at least one of the following B-1 to B-5:
[0183] B-1: At least part of the ports of the first DMRS; it should be noted that B-1 can also be understood as: the ports used by the first DMRS;
[0184] B-2: At least part of the eigenvectors of the first channel measured according to the first DMRS;
[0185] B-3: At least part of the time domain resources of the first DMRS;
[0186] B-4: The first frequency domain range of the first DMRS;
[0187] B-5: The first frequency domain granularity of the frequency domain resources of the first DMRS.
[0188] wherein, at least one of the above B-1 to B-5 can be indicated by the network side device (for example, contained in the first control signaling or the second control signaling in the foregoing) or protocol agreement or determined by the terminal autonomously.
[0189] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, at least one of the first resource for transmitting the first SRS and the precoding information can be determined according to the first information of the first DMRS.
[0190] Next, the process of determining the first transmission parameter by the terminal is specifically introduced according to each of B-1 to B-5, as described in the following first aspect to fifth aspect:
[0191] Firstly, B-1 is as follows:
[0192] Optionally, in the case that the first information includes at least part of the ports (part or all of the ports) of the first DMRS, and the first transmission parameter includes the first resource for transmitting the first SRS, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter according to the first information of the first DMRS, including at least one of the following B-1.1 to B-1.2:
[0193] B-1.1: in the case that N1 is less than or equal to M, the terminal performs at least one of the following: determining that the first resource includes the first N1 SRS resources in the SRS resource set configured by the network side device; canceling or discarding the last M-N1 SRS resources in the SRS resource set;
[0194] B-1.2: in the case that N1 is greater than or equal to M, the terminal determines that the first resource includes the SRS resources in the SRS resource set;
[0195] wherein, N1 represents the number of ports of the first DMRS (or the number of specific ports (for example, the ports selected by the terminal or the ports available to the terminal) of the first DMRS), and M represents the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set. Optionally, the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set is preconfigured by the network side device; optionally, the number of ports of the first DMRS is dynamically indicated by the network side device.
[0196] In addition, it can be understood that in the case that N1 is equal to M, whether the terminal performs B-1.1 or B-1.2 can be determined based on the terminal implementation, or can be agreed by the protocol, or can be indicated by the network side device.
[0197] It should be noted that the first N1 SRS resources in the SRS resource set can be understood as the resources with SRS resource identifiers (or SRIs) of 0 to N1-1 in the SRS resource set; and the last M-N1 resources can be understood as the resources with SRS resource identifiers (or SRIs) of N1 to M-1.
[0198] Therefore, if the number of DMRS ports (used) N1 is less than the number of SRS resources M included in the SRS resource set, the terminal actually transmits the first N1 SRS resources in the SRS resource set, or the UE cancels / drops the last M-N1 SRS resources in the SRS resource set.
[0199] It can be seen that in the embodiments of the present application, the number of actually transmitted SRS resources = min{the number of DMRS ports, the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set}.
[0200] It should be noted that one SRS resource corresponds to one SRS port (or corresponds to one transmission layer), therefore, the SRS resource(s) described in the foregoing can be replaced by SRS ports. It can be seen that if the DMRS is used as the reference DL RS of the first SRS, due to the limitation of the number of DMRS ports (i.e. N1), which can be less than the number of SRS ports. Then, the terminal transmits the first N1 ports.
[0201] In an implementation manner, the terminal can determine the first resource for transmitting the first SRS based on at least one of the following:
[0202] a conventional DMRS port;
[0203] an additional DMRS port.
[0204] It should be noted that the use of the conventional DMRS port or the additional DMRS can be indicated by the network side device or agreed by the protocol.
[0205] Optionally, at least part of the DMRS ports can be indicated by the network side device (such as included in the first control signaling or the second control signaling), or agreed by the protocol or determined by the terminal autonomously.
[0206] It should be noted that the conventional DMRS port can be understood as the port in the related art or the port associated with the PDSCH transmission; the additional DMRS port can be understood as the port irrelevant to the PDSCH transmission or the DMRS port configured for other terminals.
[0207] From the above, in the embodiment of the present application, it can be determined that the actual number of SRS resources sent by the terminal (i.e., the number of SRS resources included in the first resource) is related to the number of DMRS ports, which can reduce the blind detection of the network side device and reduce the waste of SRS resources.
[0208] In an implementation manner: the terminal determines the transmission parameter of the first SRS based on the measurement of the DMRS of the PDSCH scheduled by the first control signaling. Wherein, the first control signaling is used to schedule the PDSCH, and the terminal needs to send feedback information after receiving the PDSCH, therefore, if the network side device receives the feedback information, the network side device can confirm that the terminal successfully detects the first control signaling. Wherein, the first SRS is transmitted after the feedback information is sent, or the first SRS is sent after a time interval after the feedback information is sent. Therefore, the network side device can confirm that the terminal can successfully measure the DMRS and determine the first transmission parameter of the SRS based on the DMRS measurement. Further, the network side device can confirm that the actual number of SRS resources sent by the terminal is related to the number of DMRS ports, reducing the blind detection of the network side device.
[0209] Secondly, for B-2:
[0210] Optionally, in the case that the first information includes at least part (i.e., part or all) of the eigenvectors of the first channel, and the first transmission parameter includes at least one of the first resource and the precoding information used to transmit the first SRS, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter according to the first information of the first DMRS, including at least one of the following B-2.1 to B-2.2:
[0211] B-2.1: in the case that N2 is less than or equal to M, the terminal performs at least one of the following: determines that the first resource includes the first N2 SRS resources in the SRS resource set configured by the network side device; cancels or discards the last M-N2 SRS resources in the SRS resource set; determines the precoding information of the first SRS corresponding to the first N2 SRS resources in the SRS resource set according to the eigenvectors of the first channel;
[0212] B-2.2: in the case that N2 is greater than or equal to M, the terminal performs at least one of the following: determines that the first resource includes the SRS resources in the SRS resource set; determines the precoding information of the first SRS corresponding to the SRS resources in the SRS resource set according to the first M eigenvectors in the eigenvectors of the first channel;
[0213] Wherein, N2 represents the number of eigenvectors of the first channel (or eigenvectors corresponding to non-zero eigenvalues of the first channel, or available eigenvectors of the first channel, or eigenvectors selected by the terminal in the first channel), and M represents the number of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set.
[0214] In addition, it can be understood that, in the case that N2 is equal to M, which of B-2.1 or B-2.2 the terminal performs can be determined based on terminal implementation, or can be agreed by protocol, or can be indicated by the network side device.
[0215] It should be noted that the first N2 SRS resources in the SRS resource set can be understood as resources with SRS resource identifiers (or SRIs) 0 to N2-1. The last M-N2 resources can be understood as resources with SRS resource identifiers (or SRIs) N2 to M-1.
[0216] Therefore, if the number N2 of eigenvectors obtained by the (used) DMRS measurement channel is less than or equal to the number M of SRS resources included in the SRS resource set, the SRS resource(s) actually transmitted by the terminal are the first N2 SRS resource(s) in the SRS resource set, or the terminal cancels / drops the last M-N2 SRS resource(s) in the SRS resource set.
[0217] It can be seen that in the embodiments of the present application, the number of (actually) transmitted SRS resource(s) = min{the number of eigenvectors obtained by the DMRS measurement channel, the number of SRS resource(s) included in the SRS resource set}.
[0218] Optionally, the eigenvectors of at least part of the first channel can be indicated by the network side device (such as included in the first control signaling or the second control signaling), or agreed by protocol or determined by the terminal autonomously.
[0219] In addition, in an implementation, the terminal measures the first DMRS, and if the number of receive antennas is N3 and the number of first DMRS ports is N1, the channel matrix measured by the terminal is H eff , with a dimension of N3*N1.
[0220] The terminal can perform singular value decomposition (SVD) on H eff to obtain a left singular matrix U, the number of rows of the U matrix is N3, i.e., H eff = U*D*V H , V represents a right singular matrix, and D represents a diagonal matrix of singular values.
[0221] Alternatively,
[0222] The terminal can determine the number of SRS resource(s) to be transmitted according to A feature vector matrix U is derived, where S represents a diagonal matrix of eigenvalues;
[0223] Then, the terminal can take at least part of columns in the U matrix (or the U matrix after taking the conjugate) as the precoding information of the first SRS.
[0224] Optionally, the terminal selects X columns in the U matrix (or the U matrix after taking the conjugate) as the precoding information of the first SRS, and the number of precoding information is X; X can be less than or equal to the number of SRS resources in the SRS resource set; for example, SRS resource 1 is associated with precoder 1, SRS resource 2 is associated with precoder 2, …, and SRS resource X is associated with precoder X.
[0225] Optionally, the terminal transmits X SRS resources, and different precoders are applied when different SRS resources are transmitted.
[0226] In the third aspect, for item B-3:
[0227] Optionally, in the case where the first information includes at least part of the time domain resources of the first DMRS, and the first transmission parameter includes the precoding information of the first SRS, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter according to the first information of the first DMRS, including one of the following B-3.1 to B-3.1:
[0228] Item B-3.1: The terminal determines the precoding information of the first SRS according to the DMRS corresponding to the PDSCH in the last time unit of the time domain resources of the first DMRS (for example, the PDSCH is allocated multiple slots, and the terminal can determine the precoding information of the first SRS based on the DMRS corresponding to the PDSCH of the last slot) ;
[0229] Item B-3.2: The terminal determines the precoding information of the first SRS according to the DMRS corresponding to the PDSCH in all time units (for example, all symbols) of the time domain resources of the first DMRS (for example, the PDSCH is allocated multiple slots, and the terminal can determine the precoding information of the first SRS based on the DMRS corresponding to all symbols in these slots).
[0230] Optionally, the time domain resources in item B-3 include but are not limited to at least one of the following: symbol, slot, PDSCH repetition.
[0231] Optionally, at least part of time domain resources of the first DMRS can be indicated by the network side device (e.g., included in the first control signaling, or the second control signaling), or agreed by protocol, or determined by the terminal autonomously.
[0232] In the fourth aspect, for item B-4:
[0233] Optionally, in the case that the first information includes a first frequency domain range of the first DMRS, and the first transmission parameter includes precoding information of the first SRS, the terminal can determine the precoding information of the first SRS according to the first frequency domain range.
[0234] Optionally, the first frequency domain range includes at least one of:
[0235] An overlapping frequency domain range of the first DMRS and the first SRS;
[0236] A frequency domain range of the first DMRS;
[0237] A second frequency domain range, the second frequency domain range belongs to a part of the frequency domain range of the first DMRS, and an interval between a starting position of the second frequency domain range and a frequency domain starting position of the first DMRS is less than a first threshold (i.e., the second frequency domain range can be understood as a frequency domain range close to the frequency domain starting position of the first DMRS, for example, a lowest frequency domain range of the first DMRS);
[0238] A third frequency domain range, the third frequency domain range belongs to a part of the frequency domain range of the first DMRS, and an interval between an ending position of the third frequency domain range and a frequency domain ending position of the first DMRS is less than a second threshold (i.e., the third frequency domain range can be understood as a frequency domain range close to the frequency domain ending position of the first DMRS, for example, a highest frequency domain range of the first DMRS);
[0239] A frequency domain range in the frequency domain range of the first DMRS, except the second frequency domain range and the third frequency domain range (e.g., a middle frequency domain range of the first DMRS);
[0240] A fourth frequency domain range, the fourth frequency domain range belongs to a part of the frequency domain range of the first DMRS, and an interval between the fourth frequency domain range and a frequency domain range of the first SRS is less than a third threshold (it should be noted that if the fourth frequency domain range is located before the frequency domain range of the first SRS, the interval between them refers to an interval between an ending position of the fourth frequency domain range and a starting position of the frequency domain range of the first SRS; if the fourth frequency domain range is located after the frequency domain range of the first SRS, the interval between them refers to an interval between an ending position of the frequency domain range of the first SRS and a starting position of the fourth frequency domain range);
[0241] A frequency domain range indicated by the network side device.
[0242] Optionally, the first frequency domain range of the first DMRS can be indicated by the network side device (e.g., included in the first control signaling, or the second control signaling), or agreed by the protocol, or determined by the terminal autonomously.
[0243] In the fifth aspect, for item B-5:
[0244] Optionally, in the case that the first information includes the first frequency domain granularity of the frequency domain resource of the first DMRS, and the first transmission parameter includes the precoding information of the first SRS, the terminal can determine the precoding information of the first SRS according to the first frequency domain granularity.
[0245] Optionally, the first frequency domain granularity includes a granularity of at least one of the following:
[0246] The wideband DMRS, the PDSCH associated precoding resource block group (PRG), the subband, the resource block (RB), the resource block group (RBG), and the frequency domain granularity indicated by the network side device.
[0247] Optionally, the first frequency domain granularity of the first DMRS can be indicated by the network side device (e.g., included in the first control signaling, or the second control signaling), or agreed by the protocol, or determined by the terminal autonomously.
[0248] The following illustrates the way in which the terminal determines the precoding information of the first SRS under different granularities:
[0249] As a first example, taking the wideband DMRS as the granularity: the terminal can measure the DMRS in a specific frequency domain range, does not segment the channel in the frequency domain range, and obtains the corresponding precoding information based on the channel in the frequency domain range. Optionally, the default DMRS is wideband precoded.
[0250] As a second example, taking the PDSCH associated PRG as the granularity: the terminal can measure the DMRS in a specific frequency domain range, segments the channel in the frequency domain range, and measures the channel in the PRG granularity to obtain the corresponding precoder.
[0251] As a third example, taking the subband as the granularity: the terminal can measure the DMRS in a specific frequency domain range, segments the channel in the frequency domain range, and measures the channel in the subband granularity to obtain the corresponding precoder. Optionally, the size of the subband can be determined by at least one of the following ways: agreement by the protocol, indication by the network device, selection by the terminal.
[0252] Optionally, the first SRS in different frequency domains applies the same precoding information; or the first SRS in different frequency domains applies different precoding information.
[0253] In one embodiment, the same precoding information is applied to the first SRS in different frequency domain, such as the following different embodiments:
[0254] In one embodiment, the terminal determines the precoder of the wideband based on the wideband DMRS measurement, and applies it to the first SRS.
[0255] In another embodiment, the terminal can determine the precoder based on the first frequency domain granularity, such as PRG or subband granularity, and then select a precoder from the determined precoders as the precoder of the first SRS by at least one of the following: protocol agreement, network side device indication, and terminal selection. For example, the precoder of the lowest, highest, or middle frequency domain position is selected as the precoder of the first SRS; or the precoder corresponding to the bandwidth overlapping with the frequency domain position of the first SRS is selected as the precoder of the SRS.
[0256] In one embodiment, the same precoding information is applied to the first SRS in different frequency domain, such as the following different embodiments:
[0257] In one embodiment, the terminal determines the precoder based on the first frequency domain granularity, such as PRG or subband granularity, and applies the precoder of different frequency domain position to the first SRS in the corresponding frequency domain position.
[0258] In another embodiment, if the frequency domain position of the first SRS includes the frequency domain position of the DMRS, the terminal can determine the precoder based on the PRG or subband granularity, and apply it to the first SRS in a circular manner according to the frequency domain position; wherein the frequency domain resource of the first SRS is greater than the DMRS resource.
[0259] In another embodiment, if the frequency domain position of the first SRS is the same as the frequency domain position of the DMRS, the terminal can determine the precoder based on the same frequency domain granularity as the DMRS.
[0260] Optionally, the first DMRS and the first SRS satisfy at least one of the following C-1 to C-9:
[0261] C-1: The transmission time of the first DMRS is before the transmission time of the first SRS, as shown in FIG. 9;
[0262] C-2: the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS is less than or equal to a third threshold; that is, if the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS is greater than the third threshold, it indicates that the terminal does not expect to update the precoder information of the SRS based on the DMRS measurement, and thus the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS needs to be less than or equal to the third threshold. Thus, if the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS is too large, the precoding information obtained by measuring the first DMRS does not match the channel when the first SRS is transmitted, and thus is not suitable.
[0263] C-3: the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS is greater than or equal to a fourth threshold; that is, if the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS is less than the fourth threshold, it indicates that the terminal does not expect to update the precoder information of the SRS based on the DMRS measurement. Thus, the terminal needs to be given sufficient time to determine or prepare the precoding information for the transmission of the first SRS based on the DMRS measurement, and if the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS is too small, the transmission time of the first SRS may have arrived, but the terminal has not yet determined the precoding information according to the first DMRS, and thus the interval between the transmission time of the first DMRS and the transmission time of the first SRS needs to be greater than or equal to the fourth threshold.
[0264] Optionally, the fourth threshold is 'Q·2max(0, μ-3) OFDM symbols'. Wherein, the subcarrier spacing (SubCarrier Spacing, SCS) configuration μ is the minimum SCS configuration between the transmission of the first DMRS and the first SRS.
[0265] Optionally, the value of the fourth threshold or Q is related to at least one of the following: the time for the terminal to process the DMRS to obtain the precoder, the time for the terminal to update the SRS precoding information, the HARQ-ACK feedback time of the PDSCH, the time for the terminal to process the DMRS to obtain the SRS precoding, and the terminal capability. In an embodiment, Q takes 42.
[0266] It should be noted that in C-2 and C-3, the time interval between the first DMRS and the first SRS can be understood as the time interval between the last time unit (e.g., symbol) of the first DMRS and the first time unit (e.g., symbol) of the first SRS.
[0267] C-4: the first DMRS and the first SRS are located in the same serving cell;
[0268] C-5: The first DMRS and the first SRS are located in the same carrier.
[0269] C-6: The first DMRS and the first SRS are located in the same BWP.
[0270] C-7: The bandwidth of the first DMRS and the bandwidth of the first SRS differ by less than a fifth threshold.
[0271] C-8: The upper limit of the frequency domain range of the first DMRS and the upper limit of the frequency domain range of the first SRS differ by less than a sixth threshold, and the lower limit of the frequency domain range of the first DMRS and the lower limit of the frequency domain range of the first SRS differ by less than a seventh threshold.
[0272] C-9: The frequency domain range of the first DMRS and the frequency domain range of the first SRS at least partially overlap; wherein the bandwidth of the overlapping part of the frequency domain range of the first DMRS and the frequency domain range of the first SRS is not less than a twelfth threshold.
[0273] Optionally, the method further comprises:
[0274] The terminal receives third control signaling sent by the network side device.
[0275] The third control signaling is used to indicate that the DMRS or the channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) is used as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0276] It should be noted that the third control signaling can be the same as or different from the second control signaling and the first control signaling described above.
[0277] Therefore, the network side device can configure the terminal to use only the DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, or can configure the terminal to use only the CSI-RS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, or can configure the terminal to use the DMRS and the CSI-RS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0278] Optionally, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission according to the first DMRS, including at least one of the following D-1 to D-5:
[0279] D-1: In the case that the transmission time of the first SRS is before the transmission time of the CSI-RS and there is a DMRS between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS.
[0280] In the case that there is a DMRS between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS before the transmission time of the first SRS, and the transmission time of the DMRS is closer to the transmission time of the first SRS than to the transmission time of the CSI-RS, it is more accurate to determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS.
[0281] D-2: In the case that there is a DMRS between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS before the transmission time of the first SRS, and the interval between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS is greater than or equal to an eighth threshold, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS.
[0282] In the case that there is a DMRS between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS before the transmission time of the first SRS, and the interval between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS is greater than or equal to an eighth threshold, the transmission time of the DMRS is closer to the transmission time of the first SRS than to the transmission time of the CSI-RS, and it is more accurate to determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS.
[0283] D-3: In the case that the transmission time of the CSI-RS is before the transmission of the first SRS, and there is a DMRS before the transmission time of the CSI-RS, and the interval between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS is less than or equal to a ninth threshold, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS before the transmission time of the CSI-RS.
[0284] In the case that the transmission time of the CSI-RS is before the transmission of the first SRS, and there is a DMRS before the transmission time of the CSI-RS, and the interval between the transmission time of the first SRS and the transmission time of the CSI-RS is less than or equal to a ninth threshold, the transmission time of the CSI-RS is too close to the transmission time of the first SRS, and it may not be possible to determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the CSI-RS before the transmission time of the first SRS, and in this case, the first transmission parameter of the first SRS can be determined according to the DMRS before the transmission time of the CSI-RS.
[0285] D-4: In the case that the period of the CSI-RS is greater than a tenth threshold, and there is a DMRS between the CSI-RS periods, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS between the CSI-RS periods.
[0286] In the case where the period of the CSI-RS is greater than a tenth threshold, and there is a DMRS between the CSI-RS periods, the transmission time of the DMRS between the CSI-RS periods is closer to the transmission time of the first SRS than the CSI-RS, and the selection of the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS is more accurate.
[0287] D-5: In the case where the priority of the DMRS is higher than the priority of the CSI-RS, the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the first DMRS.
[0288] Therefore, the terminal can also select one with high priority according to the priority of the DMRS and the CSI-RS to determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS.
[0289] It can be understood that if the network side device configures the DMRS or the CSI-RS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, the terminal can determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS through at least one of the above D-1 to D-5.
[0290] It can be understood that the terminal determines the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the first DMRS, and the first DMRS is the DMRS that meets the first condition. That is, the transmission time limit condition, the DMRS is indicated as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0291] In an embodiment, the network side device configures 'CSI-RS or DMRS' as the reference DL RS of the first SRS, which can be defaulted as the CSI-RS as the reference DL RS of the SRS, but due to the large period of the CSI-RS, there is a CSI-RS located before the transmission time of the SRS, which is too far away from the transmission time of the SRS (such as exceeding a certain threshold), and the precoder of the SRS cannot be updated in time. Then, if there is a DMRS after the transmission time of the CSI-RS before the transmission time of the SRS, the precoder of the SRS can be calculated according to the DMRS.
[0292] Optionally, the priority of the DMRS and the priority of the CSI-RS can be agreed by a protocol or indicated by the network side device.
[0293] Optionally, the frequency domain granularity used for determining the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS is the same as the frequency domain granularity used for determining the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the CSI-RS.
[0294] Optionally, the method further comprises:
[0295] The terminal receives an SRS resource indicator (SRI) for non-codebook transmission;
[0296] The terminal determines a second transmission parameter of a non-codebook-based physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) according to the SRS resource indicator;
[0297] The terminal transmits the non-codebook-based PUSCH through the second transmission parameter;
[0298] The SRS resource indicator is related to the number of first resources of the first SRS transmitted by the terminal.
[0299] It can be understood that transmitting a PUCCH refers to transmitting uplink control information through a PUCCH in a wireless communication system. Transmitting a PUSCH refers to transmitting uplink data information through a PUSCH in a wireless communication system.
[0300] Therefore, after the terminal transmits the first SRS, the terminal can receive an SRS resource indicator for non-codebook-based transmission, determine a second transmission parameter of a non-codebook-based PUSCH according to the SRS resource indicator, and then transmit the non-codebook-based PUSCH through the second transmission parameter.
[0301] As described above, the number of first resources used to transmit the first SRS is related to at least one of the number of ports of the first DMRS and the number of eigenvectors of the first channel measured according to the first DMRS, and the SRI is related to at least one of the number of ports of the first DMRS and the number of eigenvectors of the first channel measured according to the first DMRS.
[0302] Optionally, the second transmission parameter includes at least one of precoding information and a rank of PUSCH transmission.
[0303] In an embodiment, after the terminal determines a precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS as a reference DL RS and transmits the first SRS, the terminal receives a non-codebook PUSCH SRI indication for indicating an SRI corresponding to non-codebook PUSCH transmission. The SRI indication is related to the number of actually transmitted SRS resources.
[0304] Optionally, the SRS resource indicator is related to the number of first resources in at least one of the following:
[0305] The bit width occupied by the SRS resource indicator;
[0306] The number of bits occupied by the SRS resource indicator;
[0307] SRS resource indication corresponds to a table.
[0308] To facilitate understanding that SRI is related to the number of first resources, the following embodiments are introduced as follows:
[0309] After the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS for non-codebook transmission based on the DMRS as the reference DL RS and sends the first SRS, the terminal can receive the non-codebook PUSCH SRI for indicating the SRI(s) corresponding to the non-codebook PUSCH transmission. Wherein, the SRI is related to the number of actually transmitted SRS resource(s).
[0310] Generally, the SRI is related to the number of SRS resource(s) included in the SRS resource set configured by the network side device. For example, the bit width or bit number of SRI is calculated according to the following formula.
[0311] Wherein, N SRS represents the number of SRS resource(s) included in the SRS resource set when non-codebook transmission, L max represents the maximum layer number of PUSCH supported by the network side device or the terminal, represents the ceiling symbol, represents the permutation combination C(N SRS , k), that is, the combination number of k in N SRS .
[0312] Further, according to some parameters such as L max , the terminal can determine the table corresponding to the SRI, such as Table 2 below as an example. According to N SRS , the UE selects a column in the table; further, according to the SRI, the SRI(s) corresponding to the PUSCH transmission is determined and the layer number of transmission is determined implicitly.
[0313] Table 2 SRI, L max = 3
[0314] In the embodiments of the present application, since the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS as the reference DL RS and transmits the first SRS, the actual number of SRS resources transmitted in the SRS resource set can be less than the number of SRS resources in the SRS resource set configured by the network. Therefore, when determining the bit width or the number of bits of the SRI or the column in the table associated with the SRI, the actual number of SRS resources transmitted can be used instead of the number of SRS resources in the SRS resource set configured by the network.
[0315] In an embodiment, if the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS as the reference DL RS and transmits the first SRS, N SRS represents the actual number of SRS resources transmitted; if the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS based on the CSI-RS and transmits the first SRS, N SRS represents the number of SRS resources in the SRS resource set.
[0316] In another embodiment: if the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS as the reference DL RS and transmits the first SRS and the network enables, N SRS represents the actual number of SRS resources transmitted; if the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS as the reference DL RS and transmits the first SRS, but the network does not enable, or if the terminal determines the precoder of the first SRS based on the CSI-RS and transmits the first SRS, N SRS represents the number of SRS resources in the SRS resource set. Optionally, the network enablement can be included in the control signaling of the PUSCH transmission. Wherein, the 'network enablement' can be understood as the network side device using '1 bit' to indicate whether to enable a certain function or whether to allow a certain terminal behavior, such as here: enabling the terminal to determine the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS and transmit the first SRS, but the network indicates 'no', the terminal cannot use the actual number of SRS resources as N SRS .
[0317] In another implementation, if the network enables the terminal to determine the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS of the reference DL RS and transmit the first SRS, N SRS represents the number of SRS resources actually transmitted; otherwise, if the network does not enable the terminal to determine the precoder of the first SRS based on the DMRS of the reference DL RS and transmit the first SRS, N SRS represents the number of SRS resources within the SRS resource set.
[0318] Referring to FIG. 10, the embodiments of the present application further provide a transmission method of a sounding reference signal SRS, which can include the following steps 1001:
[0319] Step 1001: a network-side device transmits first configuration information to a terminal.
[0320] The first configuration information is used to indicate a demodulation reference signal DMRS or a channel state information reference signal CSI-RS as a downlink reference signal of a first SRS, and the first SRS is an SRS used for non-codebook-based transmission.
[0321] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the network-side device can configure the DMRS or the CSI-RS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, so that the terminal can determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS according to the DMRS or the CSI-RS. It can be seen that, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal can take the first DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS used for non-codebook-based transmission, so that the terminal can determine the first transmission parameter of the first SRS used for non-codebook-based transmission according to the first DMRS. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal can determine the transmission parameter of the first SRS based on non-codebook-based transmission according to the first DMRS, so as to make up for the shortage of CSI-RS caused by the large CSI-RS period, thereby improving the uplink transmission gain.
[0322] Optionally, in the case where the first configuration information is used to indicate the DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS, the first configuration information includes at least one of the following:
[0323] The first indication information is used to indicate the DMRS as the downlink reference signal of the first SRS.
[0324] The identification of the SRS associated with the DMRS.
[0325] The second indication information is used to indicate the DMRS associated with the first SRS.
[0326] Optionally, the second indication information includes at least one of the following:
[0327] a frequency domain position of the DMRS;
[0328] a time domain position of the DMRS;

[0330] a time domain position of the PDSCH;
[0331] an identity of the DMRS;
[0332] an identity of the PDSCH;
[0333] information of control signaling associated with the DMRS;
[0334] information of control signaling associated with the PDSCH;
[0335] an identity of a bandwidth part (BWP) in which the SPS PDSCH is located;
[0336] an identity of a BWP in which a DMRS of the SPS PDSCH is located;
[0337] an identity of a configuration corresponding to the SPS PDSCH;
[0338] an identity of feedback information corresponding to the SPS PDSCH.
[0339] Optionally, the network-side device sends first configuration information to the terminal, including:
[0340] The network-side device sends the first configuration information to the terminal by at least one of the following:
[0341] first control signaling, the first control signaling being used for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);
[0342] second control signaling, the second control signaling including control signaling associated with the first SRS transmission.
[0343] Optionally, the first control signaling is further used for triggering or activating the transmission of the first SRS.
[0344] In an implementation manner, the first control signaling includes at least one of the following A-1.4 to A-1.5:
[0345] A-1.4: first indication information, wherein the first indication information is used for indicating that the DMRS is a downlink reference signal of the first SRS;
[0346] A-1.5: identity information of the first SRS associated with the DMRS.
[0347] It can be understood that the related description of A-1.4 to A-1.5 herein can be referred to the foregoing description, and will not be repeated here.
[0348] In an embodiment, the second control signaling comprises at least one of the following A-2.1 to A-2.13:

[0351] A-2.3: time domain position of the DMRS;
[0352] A-2.4: frequency domain position of the PDSCH;
[0353] A-2.5: time domain position of the PDSCH;
[0354] A-2.6: identification of the DMRS;
[0355] A-2.7: identification of the PDSCH;
[0356] A-2.8: information of control signaling associated with the DMRS;
[0357] A-2.9: information of control signaling associated with the PDSCH;
[0358] A-2.10: identification of a bandwidth part (BWP) where the semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) PDSCH is located;
[0359] A-2.11: identification of a BWP where the DMRS of the SPS PDSCH is located;
[0360] A-2.12: configuration identification corresponding to the SPS PDSCH;

[0362] It can be understood that the related description of A-2.1 to A-2.13 herein can be referred to the foregoing description, and will not be repeated here.
[0363] Optionally, the method further comprises at least one of the following:
[0364] The network side device receives the first SRS sent by the terminal;
[0365] The network side device sends SRS resource indication for non-codebook transmission to the terminal, wherein the SRS resource indication is related to the number of first resources of the first SRS sent by the terminal.
[0366] The network-side device receives the non-codebook-based physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) sent by the terminal through the second transmission parameter;
[0367] The second transmission parameter includes a transmission parameter of the non-codebook-based PUSCH determined according to the SRS resource indication.
[0368] Therefore, after the network-side device receives the first SRS sent by the terminal, the network-side device can determine the SRS resource indication according to the number of the first resources of the first SRS sent by the terminal, and then send the SRS resource indication to the terminal, so that the terminal can determine the second transmission parameter of the non-codebook-based PUSCH according to the SRS resource indication, and then send the non-codebook-based PUSCH through the second transmission parameter.
[0369] As described above, the number of the first resources used for transmitting the first SRS is related to at least one of the number of the ports of the first DMRS and the number of the eigenvectors of the first channel measured according to the first DMRS, and the SRI is related to at least one of the number of the ports of the first DMRS and the number of the eigenvectors of the first channel measured according to the first DMRS.

[0384] Optionally, the first control signaling is further used to trigger or activate the transmission of the first SRS.
