[0067] To facilitate a better understanding of the embodiments of this application, the related technologies are described.

[0068] (1) Channel State Information (CSI) measurement and reporting framework.

[0069] In New Radio (NR), CSI measurement and reporting are based on the CSI framework. The CSI framework comprises at least one of the following: CSI report settings, CSI resource settings, a Non-Zero Power (NZP) CSI-RS resource set, and an SSB resource set. Specifically, the CSI report configuration can be set to periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, or aperiodic reporting, and the time-domain characteristics of the resources corresponding to the CSI resource settings can also be configured as periodic, semi-persistent, or aperiodic.

[0070] The configuration framework for CSI measurement and reporting includes the following:

[0071] 1. A CSI report setting can be associated with a maximum of 3 CSI resource settings, including: CSI resource settings for channel measurement, CSI resource settings for interference measurement (IM) (e.g., CSI-IM resource settings), and non-zero power CSI resource settings for interference measurement (e.g., NZP-CSI-RS resource settings).

[0072] 2. An aperiodic CSI resource setting may contain multiple CSI-RS resource sets, such as an NZP-CSI-RS resource set or a CSI interference measurement (e.g., CSI-IM) resource set, and a Synchronization Signal and / or Physical Broadcast Channel Block (SSB) measurement resource set. A periodic or semi-continuous CSI resource setting may contain only one CSI-RS resource set and one SSB measurement resource set.

[0073] 3. A CSI-RS resource set may contain multiple CSI-RS resources (such as resources of CSI-IM or NZP-CSI-RS).

[0074] 4. An SSB measurement resource set includes multiple SSBs.

[0075] (2) Beam measurement.

[0076] Communication standards only support beam measurement via CSI-RS or SSB, with CSI-RS for beam measurement having only 1 to 2 ports. SSB is a periodic reference signal, while CSI-RS for beam measurement can be periodic, semi-continuous, or aperiodic.

[0077] Beam measurement in Releases 15 and 16 was limited to the serving cell. Release 15 only supported Layer 1 Reference Signal Receiving Power (L1-RSRP) measurement, while Release 16 introduced Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-SINR) to incorporate inter-cell or inter-user interference into the beam measurement. In Release 17's Inter-cell Beam Management and Inter-cell Transmission Reception Point (TRP) projects, L1 beam measurement of neighboring cells that are on the same frequency and synchronized with the current serving cell was supported. In Release 18's Mobility Enhancement project, L1 beam measurement of neighboring cells that are asynchronous and on different frequencies was supported, but both only supported SSB-based L1-RSRP measurement. After performing L1 beam measurement according to the network-configured measurement resources, the terminal selects a portion of the beams to report based on the measurement results.

[0078] (3) Beam reporting.

[0079] The terminal can select appropriate beams for reporting based on the full-bandwidth beam measurement results. The measurement quantities for full-bandwidth beam measurement can be L1-RSRP / Layer 1 Reference Signal Receiving Quality (L1-RSRQ) / L1-SINR. Beam reporting can be group-based or non-group-based. For non-group-based beam reporting, the terminal selects up to four beams from all measurement resources configured on the network side for reporting, based on the measurement quantities. For group-based beam reporting, in versions 15 / 16, the terminal selects a pair of beams that can be simultaneously received by the UE for reporting based on the measurement results. The reported content includes the measurement resource index and its corresponding measurement value. The measurement resource index CRI / SSBRI is the index of the measurement resource in its corresponding measurement resource set (e.g., NZP-CSI-RS resource set or CSI-SSB resource set). The time-domain characteristics of the reporting are similar to those of CSI-RS measurement resources, including periodic reporting, semi-persistent reporting, and aperiodic reporting, as detailed below:

[0080] Periodic reporting: Associated periodic CSI-RS resources, the reported resources are PUCCH resources, which are configured by the network through Radio Resource Control (RRC).

[0081] Semi-persistent reporting; can be associated with periodic or semi-persistent CSI-RS resources. The reported resources can be Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources or PUSCH resources. The PUCCH resources are determined by the Media Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) signaling, and the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resources are determined by the Downlink Control Information (DCI).

[0082] Aperiodic reporting: can be associated with periodic, semi-persistent, or aperiodic CSI-RS resources. The reporting resource is the PUSCH resource, which is determined by DCI.

[0083] In the version 17 multi-transmission and reception node project, the group-based beam reporting method has been enhanced. The terminal can select up to 4 pairs of beams that the UE can receive simultaneously from the measurement resources configured by the network for reporting. Different beams in each pair of beams correspond to different transmission and reception nodes, thereby ensuring that the network can send the pair of beams simultaneously.

[0084] In the L1 / L2-Triggered Mobility (LTM) project version 18, L1 reporting for handover was introduced, namely LTM CSI Report Configuration (CSI-ReportConfig). In an L1 report for handover, a terminal can report up to 4 cells, with each cell reporting 4 beam measurements, for a maximum of 16 beams and their corresponding measurements.

[0085] To reduce reporting overhead and beam reporting latency, version 19 introduces a terminal event-triggered L1 beam reporting technology. This means that the terminal will only perform L1 beam reporting if the conditions corresponding to the triggering event are met. This terminal event-triggered L1 beam reporting technology is implemented within the unified TCI framework.

[0086] (4) Unify the TCI framework.

[0087] To reduce signaling overhead and simplify beam indication mechanisms, Release 17 introduced Unified TCI. The Unified TCI framework supports two modes: joint and separate. In joint mode, the uplink and downlink channels share the same beams as the reference signal, while in separate mode, the downlink and uplink channels share the same beams, but the uplink and downlink beams differ.

[0088] For the combined mode, the network side only needs to configure a list of TCI states, and then determine the UE's beam through MAC CE activation and DCI indication; for the separated mode, the network side needs to configure a list of TCI states for downlink channels and reference signals, and configure a list of TCI-UL states for uplink channels and reference signals. For the activation and indication of TCI states in the separated mode, the beam pairs are activated in the form of beam pairs (i.e., one TCI state + one TCI-UL state) through MAC CE, and then one beam pair is determined from the activated beam pairs through DCI.

[0089] (5) Beam measurement and reporting triggered by the terminal.

[0090] The discussion on the beam measurement and reporting technology triggered by the terminal in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is as follows:

[0091] 1. The triggering events include:

[0092] Event 2: There is at least one same candidate beam within a time window, and the number of times the measurement result corresponding to the candidate beam is greater than the measurement result corresponding to the beam currently used by the terminal by a certain threshold is not less than the preset number, or there is at least one candidate beam whose measurement result is greater than the measurement result corresponding to the beam currently used by the terminal.

[0093] Event 1: The number of times the measurement result corresponding to the beam currently used within a time window is lower than a certain threshold is not less than the preset number, or the measurement result corresponding to the beam currently used is lower than a certain threshold.

[0094] Event 7: Within a time window, there is at least one same candidate beam whose measurement result is greater than the measurement result corresponding to the Qth (Q < P) TCI state with the highest measurement result among the currently activated P TCI states by a certain threshold for not less than the preset number of times, or there is a candidate beam whose measurement result is greater than the measurement result corresponding to the Qth (Q < P) TCI state with the highest measurement result among the currently activated P TCI states by a certain threshold.

[0095] For the triggering events, the determination of the corresponding measurement RS is as follows:

[0096] a). The measurement RS corresponding to the candidate beam: It is determined by RRC configuration.

[0097] b). Measurement RS corresponding to the beam currently used by the terminal: Determined according to the Indicated TCI state, including two schemes: one is to determine according to the QCL resource (source) RS corresponding to the Indicated TCI state (e.g., CSI-RS); the other is to determine according to the QCL root resource (root source) RS corresponding to the Indicated TCI state (e.g., SSB).

[0098] c). Measurement RS corresponding to the Qth (Q < P) TCI state with the highest measurement result among the currently activated P TCI states: Determined according to the activated TCI state, including two schemes: one is to determine according to the QCL resource (source) RS corresponding to the activated TCI state (e.g., CSI-RS); the other is to determine according to the QCL root resource (root source) RS corresponding to the activated TCI state (e.g., SSB).

[0099] The reporting mode (e.g., for event 2) is as follows:

[0100] Mode A:

[0101] Step 1: The terminal sends a trigger reporting indication message (1 bit) on the PUCCH resource.

[0102] Step 2: The terminal receives feedback information from the network side (e.g., Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH)), and the PDCCH is used to schedule a PUSCH resource carrying a report.

[0103] Step 3: The terminal sends a report on the PUSCH resource.

[0104] Mode B:

[0105] Step 1: The terminal sends a trigger reporting indication message (1 bit) on the PUCCH resource. <00002>

[0106] Step 2: The terminal sends a report on the uplink resource (CG-PUSCH) pre-allocated by the network.

[0107] The reporting content (e.g., for event 2) is as follows:

[0108] Report M beams, and at least one of the M beams meets the condition.

[0109] The RRC configuration terminal is configured to always report the measurement results of the current beam; if always reported, then M+1 beams are reported.

[0110] (6) Multi-TRP (mTRP).

[0111] 3GPP has proposed multi-TRP / multi-panel scenarios. Multi-TRP transmission can increase transmission reliability and throughput performance. For example, a UE can receive the same or different data from multiple TRPs. Multi-TRP transmission scenarios include the following:

[0112] 1) As shown in Figure 2(a), multi-panel transmission within the same TRP.

[0113] 2) As shown in Figure 2(b), multi-TRP / panel transmission between multiple TRPs, ideal backhaul.

[0114] 3) As shown in Figure 2(c), the multi-TRP / panel transmission between multiple TRPs is a non-ideal backhaul.

[0115] 3GPP Release 16 standardizes multi-TRP / multi-panel scenarios, which can increase transmission reliability and throughput performance. For example, the UE can receive the same or different data from multiple TRPs. Inter-TRP communication can be categorized into ideal backhaul and non-ideal backhaul. In non-ideal backhaul scenarios, there is significant latency in information exchange between multiple TRPs, making independent scheduling more suitable, with ACK / NACK and CSI reports fed back to each TRP separately. This is typically applicable to multi-DCI scheduling, where each TRP sends its own PDCCH, each PDCCH schedules its own PDSCH, and multiple Control Resource Sets (CORESETs) configured for the UE are associated with different RRC parameters (e.g., the CORESETPoolIndex), corresponding to different TRPs. The multiple PDSCHs scheduled by multiple DCIs may have non-overlapping, partially overlapping, or completely overlapping time-frequency resources. On overlapping time-frequency resources, each TRP performs independent precoding according to its own channel, and the UE receives multi-layer data streams belonging to multiple PDSCHs in a non-coherent joint transmission (NCJT) manner.

[0116] In an ideal backhaul scenario, multiple TRPs can exchange scheduling information and UE feedback information in real time. Besides scheduling multiple PDSCHs through multiple DCIs as described above, single DCIs can also schedule PDSCHs, including the following transmission schemes:

[0117] Spatial Division Multiplexing (SDM): NCJT transmission of different data layers from different TRPs within the same transmission block (TB).

[0118] Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM): Different frequency domain resources mapped to the same redundancy version (RV) of the same TB originate from different TRPs, or different RVs of the same TB are mapped to different frequency domain resources and originate from different TRPs.

[0119] Time Division Multiplexing (TDM): Multiple repetitions of different RVs within the same TB originate from different TRPs, such as repetition within one time slot or repetition across multiple time slots.

[0120] At this point, ACK / NACK feedback and CSI reports can be sent to any TRP.

[0121] (7) mTRP beam reporting.

[0122] Considering the possibility of multiple TRPs being transmitted simultaneously and received simultaneously by the UE under sDCI SDM transmission mode and multi-DCI (mDCI) scheduled PDSCH transmission, 3GPP Release 17 proposed group-based beam reporting technology for mTRP. This means that the terminal can select up to 4 pairs of beams that the UE can receive simultaneously from the measurement resources configured by the network for reporting, and different beams in each pair of beams correspond to different transmission and reception nodes, thereby ensuring that the network can transmit this pair of beams simultaneously.

[0123] (8) mTRP beam indication.

[0124] Under the unified TCI framework, the beam indication of mTRP differs for different scheduled transmission modes, as follows:

[0125] mDCI-based mTRP scheduling transport mode:

[0126] Each control resource set pool index (CORESETPoolindex) activates S TCI code points. For a TCI code point, it can correspond to 1 joint TCI, or it can correspond to 1 pair of TCI state / TCI-UL state.

[0127] If S = 1, the joint TCI corresponding to the activated TCI code point is the indicator TCI state, or the TCI state / TCI-UL state corresponding to the activated TCI code point is the indicator TCI state / TCI-UL state; if S > 1, DCI indicates one of the S activated TCI code points as the indicator TCI state / TCI-UL state.

[0128] The TCI / TCI-UL state indicated for CORESETPoolindex#0 is the first indicated TCI / TCI-UL state, and the TCI / TCI-UL state indicated for CORESETPoolindex#1 is the second indicated TCI / TCI-UL state.

[0129] sDCI-based mTRP scheduling transport mode:

[0130] MAC CE activates S TCI code points. For a TCI code point, it can correspond to 2 joint TCIs, or it can correspond to 2 pairs of TCI states / TCI-UL states.

[0131] If S = 1, then the two joint TCIs corresponding to the activated TCI code point, or the two pairs of TCI states / TCI-UL states, are the indication TCI state and the indication TCI-UL state; if S > 1, DCI indicates one of the S activated TCI code points as the indication TCI state and the indication TCI-UL state.

[0132] In the two joint TCIs, or the two pairs of TCI states / TCI-UL states, the TCI state / TCI-UL state that appears earlier in the sequence is the first indicated TCI state / TCI-UL state, and the one that appears later is the second indicated TCI state / TCI-UL state. For example, in the separate TCI mode, if the TCI code points indicated by the DCI contain {{TCI state #1, TCI-UL state #1}, {TCI state #2, TCI-UL state #2}}, then TCI state #1 is the first indicated TCI state, TCI-UL state #1 is the first indicated TCI-UL state, TCI state #2 is the second indicated TCI state, and TCI-UL state #2 is the second indicated TCI-UL state.

[0133] R19 discusses User Equipment Initiated Beam Reporting (UEIBR) technology, but only for single TRP scenarios, not for mTRP scenarios. Considering that UEIBR can reduce beam reporting latency and overhead, and beam measurement and reporting are essential steps in mTRP FR2 scenarios, there is an urgent need in the field for a beam reporting method suitable for terminal-triggered reporting in multi-TRP (mTRP) scenarios. Therefore, this application provides a wireless communication method that enables terminal-triggered beam reporting in mTRP scenarios, thereby improving beam reporting performance.

[0134] The wireless communication method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through some embodiments and application scenarios.

[0135] Figure 3 is a schematic flowchart of a wireless communication method 200 according to an embodiment of this application.

[0136] As shown in Figure 3, the wireless communication method 200 may include at least some of the following:

[0137] S201, the terminal reports first information on the first uplink resource, the first information being used to indicate relevant information of the second information.

[0138] S202, the terminal reports second information on the second uplink resource, the second information including at least one of the following associated with at least one object: at least one first beam, at least one first beam pair; the first beam includes at least one of the following: a candidate beam reported by the terminal, a beam currently being used by the terminal; the first beam pair includes at least one of the following: a candidate beam pair reported by the terminal, a beam pair currently being used by the terminal.

[0139] In this embodiment of the application, by reporting information associated with at least one object, beam reporting triggered by the terminal can be realized in the mTRP scenario, thereby improving beam reporting performance.

[0140] In some embodiments, the object includes at least one of the following: a Transmit / Receive Point (TRP), a reference signal set, a control resource set pool index, and an indicator TCI status.

[0141] For example, the object may include a first TCI state or a second TCI state.

[0142] In this embodiment, by refining the types of objects, the terminal can perform beam reporting according to various types of objects. This not only enables terminal-triggered beam reporting in mTRP scenarios, thereby improving beam reporting performance, but also enhances the flexibility of beam reporting.

[0143] In some embodiments, the first information includes indication information of a trigger type; or, the first information includes indication information that at least one beam satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting, and the first uplink resource is used to indicate the trigger type; or the second information includes indication information of a trigger type; wherein, the trigger type includes at least one of the following: a beam associated with an object satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting, or multiple beams associated with objects satisfy the triggering conditions for beam reporting.

[0144] For example, the beam associated with an object satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting, which may include: the beam associated with object #1 satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting, and the beam associated with object #2 satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting.

[0145] For example, the number of the plurality of objects is greater than 1.

[0146] For example, the terminal reports first information on the first uplink resource, and the first information occupies multiple bits. For example, it can be 2 bits. For example, when object #1 meets the reporting trigger condition, it corresponds to 01; when object #2 meets the reporting trigger condition, it corresponds to 10; when both object #1 and object #2 meet the reporting trigger condition, it corresponds to 11. Further optionally, the second information reported by the terminal does not include indication information of the trigger type.

[0147] For example, the terminal reports first information on its corresponding first uplink resource based on the beam reporting trigger type, where the first information occupies 1 bit. Optionally, the reporting configuration for beam reporting is associated with multiple PUCCH resources. In one implementation, when object #1 meets the reporting trigger condition, the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH resource #1; when object #2 meets the reporting trigger condition, the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH resource #2; when both object #1 and object #2 meet the reporting trigger condition, the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH resource #3. In another implementation, when one of the objects meets the reporting trigger condition, the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH resource #1; when both objects meet the reporting trigger condition, the terminal sends the first information on PUCCH resource #2. Further optionally, the second information reported by the terminal does not include indication information of the trigger type.

[0148] For example, the terminal reports first information on the first uplink resource, where the first information occupies 1 bit. Further, the second information reported by the terminal includes indication information of the trigger type.

[0149] For example, a beam associated with one object satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting, including: one object satisfies the reporting triggering conditions. Beams associated with multiple objects satisfying the triggering conditions for beam reporting include: multiple (≥2) objects satisfying the reporting triggering conditions.

[0150] For example, the indication information of the trigger type may occupy 1 bit or 2 bits.

[0151] For example, when 1 bit is used, 0 indicates that only one object meets the reporting trigger condition, and 1 indicates that both objects meet the reporting trigger condition.

[0152] For example, when 2 bits are used, the value and indication can be found in Table 1 or Table 2.

[0153] Table 1

[0154] Table 2

[0155] In this embodiment, the first information or the second information includes indication information of the trigger type, or indication information of the first uplink resource indication trigger type, so that the network-side device can correctly parse and apply the second information.

[0156] In some embodiments, at least one of the candidate beams reported by the terminal satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting, or at least one beam pair or at least one beam among the candidate beam pairs reported by the terminal satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting.

[0157] In this embodiment, if at least one of the candidate beams reported by the terminal satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting, or if at least one beam pair or at least one beam among the candidate beam pairs reported by the terminal satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting, it indicates that the terminal has triggered beam reporting. Consequently, the terminal needs to report the second information, which ensures that the second information is valid and improves its reliability.

[0158] In some embodiments, when a beam associated with an object satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting, the M beams reported by the terminal include the beam associated with the object; or, when a beam associated with an object satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting, each of the N beam pairs reported by the terminal includes the beam associated with the object; or, when a beam associated with an object satisfies the triggering condition for beam reporting, the M beams reported by the terminal include the beam associated with the object, and each of the N beam pairs reported by the terminal includes the beam associated with the object; or, when multiple beams associated with objects satisfy the triggering condition for beam reporting... Under certain conditions, the M beams reported by the terminal include at least one of the following: beams selected from M1×N1 beams and M2×N2 beams; or, when the beams associated with multiple objects meet the triggering conditions for beam reporting, each beam pair in the N beam pairs reported by the terminal is a beam pair associated with different objects among the multiple objects; or, when the beams associated with multiple objects meet the triggering conditions for beam reporting, the M beams reported by the terminal include at least one of the following: beams selected from M1×N1 beams and M2×N2 beams, and each beam pair in the N beam pairs reported by the terminal is a beam pair associated with different objects among the multiple objects. Wherein, M1 represents the number of the multiple objects, N1 represents the number of beams associated with each of the multiple objects, M2 represents the number of reported objects, N2 represents the number of reported beams associated with each of the reported objects, M2 is not greater than M1, and N2 is not greater than N1.

[0159] For example, taking a TRP as the object, when only one TRP meets the triggering condition, the terminal reports any of the following:

[0160] 1. Associate the relevant information of the M beams of the TRP;

[0161] 2. Relevant information for N beam pairs, wherein each of the N beam pairs includes the beam associated with the TRP.

[0162] 3. Associate the relevant information of the M beams of the TRP and the relevant information of the N beam pairs, wherein each of the N beam pairs includes the beam associated with the TRP.

[0163] For example, taking a TRP as the object, when multiple TRPs meet the reporting triggering conditions, the terminal reports any of the following:

[0164] 1. Associate the relevant information of M beams of the multiple TRPs; that is, select M beams from the beams associated with each TRP in the multiple TRPs for reporting;

[0165] 2. Information related to M2×N2 beams, where M = M2×N2, M2 represents the number of TRPs selected for reporting from the plurality of TRPs, and N2 represents the number of reporting beams associated with each of the selected TRPs. That is, N2 beams are selected from the beams associated with each reporting TRP in the plurality of TRPs for reporting.

[0166] 3. Relevant information of N beam pairs, wherein each of the N beam pairs includes a beam associated with the plurality of TRPs; for example, each of the N beam pairs includes a beam associated with different TRPs among the plurality of TRPs.

[0167] 4. Associate the relevant information of M beams of the plurality of TRPs and the relevant information of N beam pairs, wherein each of the N beam pairs includes a beam associated with the plurality of TRPs; for example, each of the N beam pairs includes a beam associated with different TRPs among the plurality of TRPs.

[0168] 5. Information related to M² × N² beams, where M = M² × N², M² represents the number of TRPs selected for reporting from the plurality of TRPs, and N² represents the number of reporting beams associated with each of the selected TRPs. That is, N² beams are selected from the beams associated with each of the plurality of TRPs for reporting. Each beam pair in the N beam pairs includes beams associated with the plurality of TRPs; for example, each beam pair in the N beam pairs includes beams associated with different TRPs from the plurality of TRPs.

[0217] Optionally, the identification information of the QCL RS corresponding to the first TCI state, or the identification information of the QCL RS of the QCL RS corresponding to the first TCI state, may not be reported. That is, the relevant information of the beam or beam pair being used by the terminal may not include: the identification information of the QCL RS corresponding to the first TCI state, or the identification information of the QCL RS of the QCL RS corresponding to the first TCI state.

[0222] (4) Identification information associated with the reporting configuration of the second information.

[0223] Optionally, the identification information associated with the reporting configuration of the second information includes, but is not limited to: report configuration ID, the index of the reporting configuration in all event-triggered reporting configurations configured on the network-side device, and the index of the reporting configuration in all event-triggered reporting configurations configured on the network-side device that are associated with the same first uplink resource.

[0224] (5) Community signage information.

[0225] Optionally, the cell identification information includes, but is not limited to: physical-layer cell identity (PCI), component carrier (CC) index, CC identifier, etc.

[0226] (6) Identification information of the triggering conditions that trigger the terminal to perform beam reporting.

[0229] (8) The indication information of the number of candidate beams reported by the terminal.

[0230] (9) Indication information of the first association relationship, wherein the first association relationship is the association relationship between the candidate beam or beam pair reported by the terminal and the object.

[0231] Optionally, the indication information of the first association relationship occupies 1 bit.

[0232] Optionally, the first association relationship is the association relationship between one or more beams in the candidate beams or beam pairs reported by the terminal and the object. In other words, the beams corresponding to the first association relationship are one or more beams included in the candidate beams and candidate beam pairs reported by the terminal.

[0233] (10) Status indication information, used to indicate the status of the candidate beam or beam pair reported by the terminal that meets the triggering conditions for beam reporting.

[0234] In some embodiments, for each beam or beam pair reported by the terminal, the status indication information includes at least one of the following:

[0235] Indicator information indicating whether the triggering conditions are met or not;

[0236] The count indication information is used to indicate the number of times a beam or beam pair meets the triggering conditions for beam reporting within the first time window.

[0237] For example, the state in which the candidate beam / beam pair reported by the terminal satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting can be indicated by at least one of the following:

[0238] 1. For each reported beam / beam pair, add 1 bit to indicate whether the reporting trigger condition is met.

[0239] 2. For each reported beam / beam pair, add an indication message to indicate the number of times the beam / beam pair meets the trigger condition within the first time window. Optionally, the value of the added indication message can be 0 to X, where X is the number of times the trigger condition is met within a given time window.

[0240] (11) Indication information of the second association relationship, wherein the second association relationship is the association relationship between the beam being used by the terminal and the object.

[0241] In some embodiments, if the first condition is met, the second information includes indication information of the second association relationship;

[0242] The first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0243] The first information does not include indication information of the trigger type;

[0244] The first uplink resource is not used to indicate the trigger type;

[0245] The quantity of the first uplink resource is 1;

[0246] The second information does not include indication information of the first association relationship;

[0247] The triggering type includes at least one of the following: a beam associated with one object satisfies the triggering conditions for beam reporting; or multiple beams associated with multiple objects satisfy the triggering conditions for beam reporting.

[0248] For example, under the first condition, the second information includes indication information of the correspondence between the beam or beam pair being used by the terminal and the object, the indication information being indicated by 1 bit; the first condition includes at least one of the following:

[0249] 1. The number of the first uplink resources is 1. For example, the number of PUCCH resources carrying the first information is 1.

[0250] 2. The first information is only an indication that the beam reporting trigger condition has been met. For example, the first information is only 1 bit.

[0251] 3. The second information does not include indication information of the first association relationship. For example, the second information does not include indication information of the correspondence between the candidate beams or beam pairs reported by the terminal and the object.

[0252] Optionally, the correspondence between the beams being used by the terminal and the objects is the same as the correspondence between the candidate beams and the objects reported by the terminal, and the correspondence between the beams and the objects contained in the beam pairs being used by the terminal is the same as the correspondence between the beams and the objects contained in the candidate beam pairs reported by the terminal.

[0253] In this embodiment, by refining the content of the second information, the terminal can select appropriate information as the second information to report to the network. In particular, in the mTRP scenario, the terminal can select appropriate information as the second information to report to the network, thereby improving beam reporting performance.

[0254] In some embodiments, the second information further includes at least one of the following:

[0255] Measurement results of QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state;

[0256] The measurement results of QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state;

[0257] Measurement results of QCL RS corresponding to all activated TCI states;

[0258] Measurement results of QCL RS for all activated TCI states;

[0259] Deactivate or update indication information, used to indicate, deactivate or update one or more active TCI states;

[0260] The second TCI state includes the TCI states associated with one or more objects among all active TCI states.

[0261] For example, the one or more objects may be the same as, different from, or partially the same as the object associated with the second information (i.e., at least one object mentioned above).

[0262] For example, when the terminal is based on the QCL RS corresponding to the activated TCI state or the QCL RS corresponding to the activated TCI state, the second information further includes at least one of the following:

[0263] The measurement result of QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state;

[0264] The measurement result of QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state;

[0265] Measurement results of QCL RS corresponding to all activated TCI states;

[0266] Measurement results of QCL RS for all activated TCI states;

[0267] Deactivate or update indication information, used to indicate, deactivate or update one or more active TCI states;

[0268] Optionally, the second information may further include relevant identification information, such as at least one of the following: identification information of the QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state, identification information of the QCL RS of the QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state, identification information of the QCL RS corresponding to all active TCI states, and identification information of the QCL RS of the QCL RS corresponding to all active TCI states. The identification information in the second information and the measurement results have a one-to-one correspondence. For example, the measurement results and the identification information of the corresponding RS have a one-to-one correspondence.

[0269] Optionally, the measurement results in the second information have a one-to-one correspondence with the TCI code points.

[0270] Optionally, the measurement results in the second information can be reported separately using differential L1-RSRP / L1-SINR, or reported together with the measurement results of the reported beam using differential L1-RSRP / L1-SINR.

[0271] Optionally, the measurement result in the second information is placed at a fixed position in the Uplink Control Information (UCI) sequence.

[0272] Optionally, the deactivation or update indication information includes the identification information of the TCI code point corresponding to the activated TCI state, or a bitmap indication. For example, if the number of activated TCI states is 8, then an 8-bit indication is used. When the i-th bit is 1, it indicates that the terminal indicates to the network side that the activated TCI state corresponding to the i-th TCI code point can be deactivated, replaced, or updated.

[0273] In this embodiment, by carrying the measurement results of the QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state or the measurement results of the QCL RS corresponding to the second TCI state in the second information, or by carrying the measurement results of the QCL RS corresponding to all active TCI states or the measurement results of the QCL RS corresponding to all active TCI states in the second information, the network-side device can be assisted in activating, deactivating or updating the TCI state, thereby improving the management performance of the TCI state.

[0274] In some embodiments, the method 200 further includes:

[0275] When the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource overlap in the time domain, the terminal performs at least one of the following:

[0276] Send the uplink information with higher priority between the first and third information;

[0277] The first information is transmitted by cyclically shifting and multiplexing the third uplink resource;

[0278] The third information is sent by cyclically shifting and multiplexing the first uplink resource;

[0279] The third information is the uplink information carried on the third uplink resource, and the third information is associated with a different object than the first information.

[0280] For example, the third information is the UCI carried on the third uplink resource. The third information is associated with different information than the first information, such as at least one of different TRPs, events, reports, and CCs.

[0281] In this embodiment, when the first uplink resource and the third uplink resource overlap in the time domain, sending the higher-priority uplink information between the first information and the third information can prioritize ensuring the transmission reliability of the higher-priority information. By cyclically shifting and multiplexing the third uplink resource to send the first information, or by cyclically shifting and multiplexing the first uplink resource to send the third information, the problem of reduced transmission performance due to resource conflicts can be successfully resolved.

[0282] In some embodiments, the priority of the first information or the priority of the third information is determined according to a first priority rule;

[0283] The first priority rule includes at least one of the following:

[0284] 1. Information associated with the primary cell (PCell) has a higher priority than information associated with the secondary cell (SCell).

[0285] For example, the first information associated with a PCell has a higher priority than the first information associated with a SCell.

[0286] Specifically, the first information associated with a PCell refers to the first information sent after the reporting trigger event associated with the report configuration in the PCell is satisfied, or it refers to the first information sent after the RS associated with the PCell (the RS includes at least one of the RS corresponding to the beam or beam pair being used by the terminal and the RS associated with the resource set) satisfies the reporting trigger event; similarly, the first information associated with a SCell is also referred to.

[0287] 2. Information associated with control resource set CORESET#0 has higher priority than information associated with non-CORESET#0.

[0288] For example, the first information associated with CORESET#0 has a higher priority than the first information associated with non-CORESET#0.

[0289] Specifically, the first information associated with CORESET#0 refers to the first information sent by the RS associated with CORESET#0 after the reporting trigger event is met. The RS associated with CORESET#0 includes at least one of the following:

[0290] The first RS and its corresponding network-side device are configured with a set of RSs for candidate beam measurement; the first RS is a QCL RS or a QCL RS associated with the TCI state of CORESET#0.

[0291] The second RS and the RS set configured by the network-side device for candidate beam measurement, wherein the second RS, its corresponding RS set, and CORESET#0 are associated with the same object. Optionally, the second RS may be an RS used by the terminal configured or indicated by the network-side device.

[0292] Similarly, the first information is associated with non-CORESET#0.

[0293] 3. The information associated with the first indicator transmission configuration indicating the TCI status has higher priority than the information associated with the second indicator TCI status.

[0294] For example, the first piece of information that indicates the TCI state is associated with the first piece of information that indicates the TCI state has a higher priority than the second piece of information that indicates the TCI state.

[0295] Specifically, the first information associated with the first indication TCI state refers to the first information sent after the beam being used by the terminal and its corresponding candidate beam, determined based on the first indication TCI state, meet the reporting trigger event. Similarly, the first information associated with the second indication TCI state is also the first information associated with the second indication TCI state.

[0296] 4. Information associated with the first cell has a higher priority than information associated with the second cell, and the number of objects associated with the first cell is greater than the number of objects associated with the second cell.

[0297] For example, the first cell includes an mTRP SCell, and the second cell includes an sTRP SCell.

[0298] For example, the first information associated with an mTRP SCell has a higher priority than the first information associated with an sTRP SCell.

[0299] Specifically, the first information associated with mTRP SCell refers to the first information sent after the RS associated with mTRP SCell (e.g., the RS corresponding to at least one of the beams currently being used by the terminal and the candidate beams of the terminal) satisfies the reporting trigger event; similarly, the first information associated with sTRP SCell; where mTRP SCell refers to two SCells indicating TCI status indicated by the network side, and sTRP SCell refers to one SCell indicating TCI status indicated by the network side.

[0300] 5. The identification information associated with the reporting configuration of the second information is negatively correlated with the priority of the second information.

[0301] For example, the smaller the first information in the report configuration identifier, the higher its priority.

[0302] 6. The priority of the triggering condition for the terminal to perform beam reporting is positively correlated with the priority of the second information.

[0303] For example, the first piece of information for an event with a higher association priority has a higher priority. Optionally, the event priority is: event 2 ≥ event 1 > event 7.

[0304] In this embodiment, the priority of the first information or the priority of the third information is determined according to the first priority rule. By refining the first priority rule, the priority of different information (e.g., different first information) is clarified, so that when there are multiple information to be transmitted (e.g., multiple first information to be transmitted), the terminal can transmit the information with higher priority according to the priority, thereby ensuring information transmission performance.

[0305] The solution of this application will be described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0306] Example 1:

[0307] In this embodiment, the object is a TRP. For two TRPs, the terminal performs RS evaluation respectively, and performs beam reporting when the evaluated RS meets the reporting triggering conditions.

[0308] In an event-triggered reporting configuration, two RS sets (RS set #0 and RS set #1) are associated. These two RS sets are resource sets used for candidate beam measurements, and there is a one-to-one correspondence between the two RS sets and two indicator TCI states or two network-side activated TCI states (the TCI state with the highest measurement result among all activated TCI states). The terminal performs event evaluation based on the two indicator / activated TCI states and the corresponding two RS sets. If at least one RS in at least one RS set has a QCL RS / root QCL RS corresponding to the indicator / activated TCI state of that RS set that satisfies the event triggering condition, the terminal will trigger a report. The event evaluation result includes the following three cases (i.e., the triggering type of beam reporting):

[0309] Case 1: Only one RS in RS set #0 has a QCL RS / root QCL RS that corresponds to the indication / activation TCI state of RS set #0 and satisfies the event triggering condition.

[0310] Case 2: Only one RS in RS set #1 has a QCL RS / root QCL RS that corresponds to the indication / activation TCI state of RS set #1 and satisfies the event triggering condition.

[0311] Case 3: At least one RS in RS set #0 satisfies the event triggering condition as the QCL RS / root QCL RS corresponding to RS set #0 that indicates / activates the TCI state, and at least one RS in RS set #1 satisfies the event triggering condition as the QCL RS / root QCL RS corresponding to RS set #1 that indicates / activates the TCI state.

[0312] In an event-triggered reporting configuration, the RS set used for candidate beam measurements is not associated. The terminal performs event evaluation based on two indication / activation TCI states (including the first and second indication / activation TCI states). The terminal triggers a report if at least one QCL RS / root QCL RS in an indication / activation TCI state satisfies the event triggering condition. The event evaluation result includes the following three cases (i.e., the triggering type of beam reporting):

[0313] Case 1: Only the first QCL RS / root QCL RS that indicates / activates the TCI state satisfies the event triggering condition.

[0314] Case 2: Only the second QCL RS / root QCL RS that indicates / activates the TCI state satisfies the event triggering condition.

[0315] Case 3: The first QCL RS / root QCL RS indicating / activating the TCI state satisfies the event triggering condition, and the second QCL RS / root QCL RS indicating / activating the TCI state also satisfies the event triggering condition.

[0316] In the above scenarios, when the number of reported beams and the report load size differ for different evaluation conditions, the terminal needs to inform the network of the beam reporting trigger type in the first information so that the network can allocate appropriate resource size and / or decode correctly. Specifically, different first uplink resources can be used to send first information corresponding to different beam reporting trigger types. The first information only needs 1 bit to indicate that at least one beam meets the trigger condition for beam reporting; or, multiple bits of first information can be sent to indicate the trigger type. When the number of reported beams and the report load size are the same for different evaluation conditions, the terminal can inform the network that the report has been triggered based on 1 bit of first information. However, in order for the network to correctly perform TCI / TRP switching subsequently, the terminal can inform the network of the beam / TRP that triggered this report in the second information.

[0317] In addition to indicating the trigger type of beam reporting, the association between the beam / beam pair (e.g., front beam, current beam pair, M beams, or N beam pairs) and the TRP also needs to be indicated to the network side. This is so that the network can correctly correlate the reported measurement results with the RS for subsequent operations, such as TCI switching, TCI indication, and beam measurement reporting. When only one TRP triggers reporting, and the reporting of the first information can distinguish between case 1 and case 2, the second information does not need to indicate the association between the beam / beam pair (e.g., front beam, current beam pair, M beams, or N beam pairs) and the TRP to reduce signaling overhead. However, if the reporting of the first information cannot distinguish between case 1 and case 2, then it needs to be explicitly reported in the second information.

[0318] Example 2:

[0319] In this embodiment, the information in the first information is only used to indicate that the reporting trigger condition is met, and to request the second uplink resource associated with the second information (or to indicate that the terminal will send a report on the second uplink resource associated with the first uplink resource), wherein the second information includes indication information of the trigger type.

[0320] As an example, the second information may be information carried in UCI 1-1, as shown in Table 3.

[0321] Table 3

[0322] Among them, SSBRI / CRI#0 is the identification information corresponding to the RS with the highest / largest measurement result among the M reported beams. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported, while the measurement values ​​of the other beams are quantized and reported after being differentiated from the highest / largest measurement value.

[0323] The first bit of the two bits is used to indicate whether the beam report triggering type is a single TRP trigger or a two-TRP trigger. If it is a single TRP trigger, the terminal reports M beams, and the second bit is used to indicate the RS set associated with the reported M beams (SSBRI / CRI), as well as the TRP that triggered this report. If it is a two-TRP trigger, the terminal reports N (M=2N) beam pairs, and the second bit of the two bits is used for the RS set associated with SSBRI / CRI#0. For the beam that the terminal is using, when it is determined based on the active TCI state, the identification information of the beam that the terminal is using also needs to be reported in the second information, including but not limited to the RS index, the identifier of the TCI code point corresponding to the active TCI state, and SSBRI / CRI (when the RS corresponding to the beam that the terminal is using is also included in the RS set). Furthermore, the satisfaction status of the reporting triggering condition corresponding to each reported beam also needs to be reported.

[0324] Optionally, when only one TRP meets the trigger reporting condition and the terminal selects M beams for reporting, at least one of the M beams can be simultaneously received or transmitted by the terminal along with the active beam of another TRP.

[0325] As an example, the second information may be information carried in UCI 1-2, as shown in Table 4.

[0326] Table 4

[0327] SSBRI / CRI#0 is the identifier information corresponding to the highest / largest RS among the reported M beams. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported. The measurement values ​​of the remaining M-1 beams are reported by quantizing after differencing the highest / largest measurement value. SSBRI / CRI#M is the identifier information corresponding to the highest / largest RS among the reported N beam alignment measurement results. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported. The measurement values ​​of the remaining 2N-1 beams are reported by quantizing after differencing the highest / largest measurement value.

[0328] The first bit of the two bits indicates whether the beam report is triggered by one TRP or two TRPs. If it's triggered by one TRP, the terminal selects M beams from the set of RSs associated with the TRP for reporting. The second bit indicates the set of RSs associated with the M beams (SSBRI / CRI) being reported, and the TRP that triggered the report. If it's triggered by two TRPs, the terminal selects M / 2 (M is a positive integer and even) beams from each of the two sets of RSs associated with the two TRPs for reporting. The second bit indicates the set of RSs associated with SSBRI / CRI#0, and the TRP associated with the measurement result of the first beam among the M beams in this report. The first bit indicates the set of RSs associated with SSBRI / CRI#M, and the TRP associated with the measurement result of the first beam among the 2N beams in this report. For the beam currently being used by the terminal, when it is determined based on the activated TCI state, the identification information of the beam currently being used by the terminal also needs to be reported in the second information, including but not limited to the RS index, the identifier of the TCI code point corresponding to the activated TCI state, and SSBRI / CRI (when the RS corresponding to the beam currently being used by the terminal is also included in the RS set). Furthermore, the satisfaction status of the reporting trigger condition corresponding to each reported beam also needs to be reported.

[0329] As an example, the second information may be information carried in UCI 1-3, as shown in Table 5.

[0330] Table 5

[0331] Among them, SSBRI / CRI#0 is the identification information corresponding to the highest / largest RS among the M+2N beams reported. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported, while the measurement values ​​of the other beams are quantized and reported after being differentiated from the highest / largest measurement value.

[0332] The first bit of the 4 bits indicates whether SSBRI / CRI#0 corresponds to M beams or N beam pairs, thus determining the beam arrangement order. For example, when its value is 0, the M beams are arranged before the N beam pairs; conversely, the M beams are arranged after the N beam pairs. Similarly, the reverse is also true. The second bit of the 4 bits indicates whether the beam report is triggered by one TRP or two TRPs. If it is triggered by one TRP, the terminal selects M RSs from the set associated with the TRP for reporting. The third bit of the 4 bits indicates the set of RSs associated with the M reported beams (SSBRI / CRI), and the TRP that triggered this report. If two TRPs are triggered, the terminal selects M / 2 (M is a positive integer and even) beams from the two RS sets associated with the two TRPs to report. The third bit is used for the RS set associated with the first beam among the M beams, and the TRP associated with the measurement result of the first beam among the M beams in this report. Further, the identification information of beams associated with the same RS set among the M beams is arranged together. The fourth bit of the four bits is used to indicate the RS set associated with the first beam among the N beam pairs, and the TRP associated with the measurement result of the first beam among the 2N beams in this report. For the beam currently being used by the terminal, when determined based on the activated TCI state, the identification information of the beam currently being used by the terminal also needs to be reported in the second information, including but not limited to the RS index, the identifier of the TCI code point corresponding to the activated TCI state, and SSBRI / CRI (when the RS of the beam currently being used by the terminal is also included in the RS set). Furthermore, the fulfillment status of the reporting trigger condition corresponding to each reported beam also needs to be reported. Optionally, the order of the four bits can be interchanged.

[0333] Example 3:

[0334] In this embodiment, the information in the first information is used not only to indicate that the reporting trigger condition is met and to request the second uplink resource associated with the second information (or to indicate that the terminal will send a report on the second uplink resource associated with the first uplink resource), but also to indicate the trigger type (i.e., an indication that one TRP or two TRPs meet the trigger condition) or the number of TRPs that meet the trigger condition, but not the TRPs that meet the reporting trigger condition. The terminal requests the second uplink resource associated with the second information, or the terminal will send a report on the second uplink resource associated with the first uplink resource.

[0335] As an example, when a TRP meets the reporting triggering conditions, the second information can be information carried in UCI 2-1, as shown in Table 6.

[0336] Table 6

[0337] Among them, SSBRI / CRI#0 is the identification information corresponding to the RS with the highest / largest measurement result among the M reported beams. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported, while the measurement values ​​of the other beams are quantized and reported after being differentiated from the highest / largest measurement value.

[0338] The 1-bit is used to indicate the RS set associated with the reported M beams (SSBRI / CRI), and the indication / activation TCI state corresponding to the beam currently being used by the terminal. For example, if the 1-bit value is 0, then all reported SSBRI / CRIs are associated with RS set #0, and the beam currently being used by the terminal corresponds to the first indication / activation TCI state, or the Q-th best TCI state in the activation TCI states associated with CORESETPOOLindex #0. For the beam currently being used by the terminal, when it is determined based on the activation TCI state, the identification information of the beam currently being used by the terminal also needs to be reported in the second information, including but not limited to the RS index, the identifier of the TCI code point corresponding to the activation TCI state, and SSBRI / CRI (when the RS corresponding to the beam currently being used by the terminal is also included in the RS set). Furthermore, the satisfaction status of the reporting trigger condition corresponding to each beam also needs to be reported.

[0339] As an example, when a TRP meets the reporting triggering conditions, the second information can be information carried in UCI 2-2, as shown in Table 7.

[0340] Table 7

[0341] Among them, SSBRI / CRI#0 is the identification information corresponding to the highest / largest RS of the reported N beam alignment measurement results. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported, while the measurement values ​​of the other beams are quantized and reported after being differentiated from the highest / largest measurement value.

[0342] The first bit is used to indicate the TRP that triggered the reporting, and the second bit is used to indicate the RS set associated with SSBRI / CRI#0. It should be noted that since the TRP associated with a beam pair may include TRPs that do not meet the triggering conditions, it is necessary to additionally indicate the TRP that triggered the reporting. For example, if the first bit is 0, the beam being used by the terminal corresponds to the first indicated / activated TCI state, or the Qth best TCI state in the activated TCI states associated with CORESETPOOLindex#0. For the beam being used by the terminal, when it is determined based on the activated TCI state, the identification information of the beam being used by the terminal also needs to be reported in the second information, including but not limited to the RS index, the identifier of the TCI code point corresponding to the activated TCI state, and SSBRI / CRI (when the RS corresponding to the beam being used by the terminal is also included in the RS set). If the second information includes the identifier of the beam being used by the terminal as the RS index or SSBRI / CRI, the first bit may not be reported. Because the network side can determine the TCI status associated with the reported RS based on the RS index or SSBRI / CRI, it can further determine whether it is the first active TCI status or the second active TCI status. Furthermore, the satisfaction status of the reporting triggering condition corresponding to the RS of the TRP associated with the reporting in each beam pair also needs to be reported.

[0343] As an example, when a TRP meets the reporting triggering conditions, the second information can be information carried in UCI 2-3, as shown in Table 8.

[0344] Table 8

[0345] Among them, SSBRI / CRI#0 is the identification information corresponding to the highest / largest RS of the reported N beam alignment measurement results. Its corresponding measurement value is directly quantized and reported, while the measurement values ​​of the other beams are quantized and reported after being differentiated from the highest / largest measurement value.

[0346] The first bit is used to indicate the TRP that triggers the reporting, and the second bit is used to indicate the RS set associated with SSBRI / CRI#0. It should be noted that since the TRPs associated with a beam pair may include TRPs that do not meet the triggering conditions, it is necessary to additionally indicate the TRP that triggers the reporting. For example, if the first bit is 0, the beam currently being used by the terminal corresponds to the first indicated / activated TCI state, or the Qth best TCI state in the activated TCI states associated with CORESETPOOLindex#0. For the beam currently being used by the terminal, when determined based on the activated TCI state, the identification information of the beam currently being used by the terminal also needs to be reported in the second information, including but not limited to the RS index, the identifier of the TCI code point corresponding to the activated TCI state, and SSBRI / CRI (when the RS corresponding to the beam currently being used by the terminal is also included in the RS set). Furthermore, the satisfaction status of the reporting triggering conditions corresponding to the RS associated with the TRP that triggers the reporting in each beam pair also needs to be reported.

[0347] As an example, when a TRP meets the reporting triggering conditions, the terminal reports the relevant information of M beams, N beam pairs, and the beam / beam pair that the terminal is using. It is similar to UCI 1-2 and UCI 1-3, only the 1 bit used to indicate whether the triggering type is a one-TRP trigger or a two-TRP trigger needs to be removed. Therefore, to avoid repetition, it will not be described again here.

[0348] As an example, when two TRPs meet the reporting triggering conditions, the content of the second information is similar to UCI 1-2 and UCI 1-3. Only the 1 bit indicating whether the triggering type is one TRP triggering or two TRP triggering needs to be removed. Therefore, to avoid repetition, it will not be elaborated here. Furthermore, M = 2 × N1 beam information entries are reported, with N1 entries for each TRP.

[0349] It should be noted that when the terminal reports M beam information, the value of M when one TRP meets the reporting trigger condition can be the same as or different from the value of M when two TRPs meet the reporting trigger condition. For example, the value of M when one TRP meets the reporting trigger condition is W, while the value of M when two TRPs meet the reporting trigger condition is 2W, where W is a positive integer.

[0350] Example 4:

[0351] In this embodiment, the information in the first information is used not only to indicate that the reporting trigger condition is met and to request the second uplink resource associated with the second information (or to indicate that the terminal will send a report on the second uplink resource associated with the first uplink resource), but also to indicate the TRP that meets the reporting trigger condition. Similar to the UCI in Embodiment 3, only one bit used to indicate the TRP that triggers the reporting needs to be removed; therefore, to avoid repetition, it will not be described again here.
