Solution Overview

Problem

When multiple SRS resource sets are configured, the SRI in DCI or CG configuration cannot determine which SRS resource set to use, leading to incorrect transmission of the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and reduced transmission performance.

Innovation Solution

A method to determine the SRS resource set indicated by the SRI in DCI or CG configuration by establishing an association based on indication information or predefined rules using specified parameters such as CORESETPoolIndex, CORESET, TCI state, and RRC parameters, ensuring correct transmission of PUSCH.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple SRS resource sets are configured to increase transmission flexibility, then adaptability is improved, but the ability to determine which SRS resource set to use deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission flexibilityVSAvoidSRS resource set determination
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces CORESET as an intermediary element that links DCI to specific SRS resource sets. The CORESET contains an SRS resource set indicator that acts as a mediator to resolve the ambiguity of which SRS resource set to use when multiple are configured, thereby maintaining transmission flexibility while solving the determination difficulty.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the SRS resource sets and associates each with specific CORESETs. By dividing the SRS resource sets into groups linked to different CORESETs, the system enables precise determination of which SRS resource set to use based on the CORESET indicated in the DCI, thus resolving the ambiguity while preserving adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If multiple SRS resource sets are configured to improve transmission performance, then reliability is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission performanceVSAvoidconfiguration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent makes the CORESET structure multi-functional by enabling it to serve both as a control resource indicator and as a pointer to specific SRS resource sets. This universal approach allows the existing CORESET mechanism to handle multiple SRS resource sets without adding separate complex configuration structures, thereby improving reliability while controlling device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Productivity

If SRI is used to indicate SRS resource for PUSCH transmission to improve transmission efficiency, then productivity is improved, but ambiguity in SRS resource set selection worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoidSRS resource set identification
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent adds another dimension to the SRI indication mechanism by incorporating CORESET-based SRS resource set indicators. Instead of relying solely on the SRI field, the system uses the CORESET dimension to provide additional identification information, thereby resolving the ambiguity in SRS resource set selection while maintaining transmission efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of communications, and discloses a transmission method for a physical uplink shared channel, a device, and a storage medium, which are used to solve problems that in the related art, correct transmission of the PUSCH cannot be effectively ensured, and a transmission performance of the PUSCH is reduced. The method comprises: in a case that a terminal device detects or obtains a sounding reference signal resource indicator (SRI) included in a CG configuration in DCI, determining an association between a specified parameter and a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource set based on indication information of a network device or a predefined rule; determining the SRS resource set based on the association; determining an SRS resource based on the SRS resource set; and transmitting the PUSCH based on the SRS resource. In the implementation, the SRS resource set for transmitting the PUSCH is determined by adopting an indication of a network side or the predefined rule, thereby ensuring the correct transmission of the PUSCH, and improving the transmission performance of the PUSCH.
