本申请要求在2021年04月02日提交中国专利局、申请号为202110359692.9、申请名称为“一种通信方法及装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种通信方法及装置。
背景技术
在移动通信系统中,终端设备需要通过随机接入过程建立与网络设备的无线连接,从而实现上行同步。随着通信标准的演进,通信标准除了支持传统(legacy)终端设备以外,还将支持比传统终端设备的能力低的终端设备,该类型的终端设备可以称为低能力(reduced capability,REDCAP)终端设备。REDCAP终端设备主要特征是终端能力的降低或受限,例如,带宽能力受限,相比于传统终端设备,最大带宽将降低至20MHz,又例如节能终端设备。由于该类终端设备的带宽、接收或者发送天线等能力较小,导致该类终端设备与网络设备之间的通信性能较差,例如,在随机接入过程中,终端设备通过第三消息(Msg3)或者消息A(MsgA)发送无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)建立连接请求,当终端设备处在小区边缘区域或者覆盖受限区域时,Msg3传输的性能比较差,可能导致终端设备无法接入到网络中,因此如何提高终端设备的通信性能称为亟需解决的技术问题。
发明内容
本申请提供一种通信方法及装置,用于提高终端设备的通信性能。
第一方面,本申请提供一种通信方法,该方法的执行主体可以是终端设备,也可以是芯片或电路。方法包括:确定以跳频传输方式传输;当以重复传输的方式传输时,以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式发送第一信令;和/或,当以不重复传输的方式传输时,以时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式发送第一信令。
本申请实施例中通过将重复传输与时隙间跳频进行组合,将不重复传输与时隙内跳频进行组合,使得终端设备在确定以重复传输的方式传输时可以采用时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式收发信令,从而可以同时获得跳频增益和时域联合信道估计增益,从而可以进一步提升通信性能。而在确定以不重复传输的方式传输时可以采用时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式收发信令,从而可以获得跳频增益,提升通信性能。通过上述组合可以使得终端设备在通信获得较大的增益,从而使得通信性能得到一个较大的提升,并且可以节省信令开销。
以第一信令为Msg3为例,相比于目前Msg3以不重复传输的方式进行发送,本申请实施例中终端设备可以以重复传输以及时隙间跳频的方式发送Msg3,使得网络设备可以准确的接收Msg3,使得终端设备处在小区边缘区域或者覆盖受限区域时也可以与网络设 备之间建立RRC连接,从而终端设备和网络设备之间可以通过RRC连接进行通信。应理解,这里仅是以Msg3为例进行说明,第一信令也可以为其他上行信令,本申请不对第一信令进行具体限定。
在一种可能的设计中,可以根据第一信息或者预定义规则确定是否以重复传输的方式传输。通过上述方式,使得终端设备与网络设备采用相同的传输方式传输,从而可以避免由于传输方式不一致导致的通信错误。
在一种可能的设计中,根据第二信息或者预定义规则确定以跳频传输方式传输。通过上述方式,使得终端设备与网络设备采用相同的传输方式传输,从而可以避免通信出现错误。
在一种可能的设计中,以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式发送第一信令,包括:每进行P次重复传输后,以进行时隙间跳频的方式重复发送第一信令,其中,P为正整数。通过上述方式可以同时获得跳频增益和时域联合信道估计增益,从而可以进一步提升通信性能。
在一种可能的设计中,跳频包括BWP间跳频和/或BWP内跳频。
在一种可能的设计中,以时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式发送第一信令,包括:以时隙内跳频且BWP内跳频的方式发送第一信令。由于进行BWP间跳频时,终端设备需要进行射频重调(RF retuning),在射频重调期间终端设备不能进行发送或者接收,上述设计中在不重复传输时此采用BWP内跳频的方式,从而可以避免BWP间跳频导致的传输性能下降。
在一种可能的设计中,方法还包括:接收来自网络设备的随机接入响应,随机接入响应中的上行链路授权指示如下至少一项:第一信息、第二信息、第三信息、第四信息;其中,第三信息用于指示BWP间跳频的跳频位置,第四信息用于指示BWP内跳频的跳频位置。
在一种可能的设计中,上行链路授权包括的上行链路跳频指示比特指示第三信息和/或第四信息。
在一种可能的设计中,上行链路授权通过如下一项或多项指示第一信息、第二信息、第三信息、第四信息中的至少一项:调制和编码方案(MCS)指示域中的K1个比特,K1为小于或等于N的正整数,N为MCS指示域的总比特数;频域资源分配(FDRA)指示域中的K2个比特,K2为小于或等于M的正整数,M为FDRA指示域的总比特数。上述方式中通过对上行链路授权中的部分比特进行重解读,使得上行链路授权可以指示额外的信息(如第一信息、第二信息等)。
在一种可能的设计中,K1根据第一信令的MCS最大值确定,MCS最大值为预定义的或者网络设备配置的。上述方式中,通过限制第一信令的MCS最大值,使得MCS指示域可以有多余的比特用于指示额外的信息(如第一信息、第二信息等)。
在一种可能的设计中,K2为根据第一信令的频域资源数最大值确定的,频域资源数最大值为预定义的或者网络设备配置的。上述方式中,通过限制第一信令的频域资源数最大值,使得FDRA指示域可以有多余的比特用于指示额外的信息(如第一信息、第二信息等)。
在一种可能的设计中,第一信令为随机接入过程中的第三消息(Msg3)或者随机接入过程中的消息A(MsgA)。
在一种可能的设计中,重复传输包括:一个传输块在时域上占用一个时隙,且在多个时隙上重复传输;不重复传输包括:一个传输块在时域上占用一个时隙,并在一个时隙内传输。
第二方面,本申请提供一种通信方法,该方法的执行主体可以是终端设备,也可以是芯片或电路。所述方法包括:接收来自网络设备的第五信息,第五信息用于指示如下至少一项:终端设备的MCS最大值,其中,MCS最大值小于第一值,第一值为预定义或者网 络设备配置的MCS最大值;终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值,其中,频域资源数最大值小于带宽部分BWP包括的频域资源的数量;根据第五信息确定第六信息,第六信息包括如下至少一项:用于指示MCS的比特数量、用于指示频域资源数的比特数量。
上述方式中,通过限制第一信令的MCS最大值和频域资源数最大值,使得MCS指示域、FDRA指示域可以有多余的比特用于指示额外的信息(如第一信息、第二信息等)。
在一种可能的设计中,确定第六信息,包括:确定MCS指示域的比特数和/或频域资源分配FDRA指示域的比特数,其中,MCS指示域的比特数为根据终端设备的MCS最大值确定的,FDRA指示域的比特数为根据频域资源数最大值确定的。上述方式中,MCS指示域的比特数可以根据终端设备的MCS的最大值确定,FDRA指示域的比特数可以根据终端设备的传输所使用频域资源的数量的最大值确定。
在一种可能的设计中,确定第六信息,包括:确定MCS指示域中用于指示MCS的比特的数量,和/或,FDRA指示域中用于指示频域资源数的比特的数量。上述方式中,MCS指示域的比特数是预定义或者网络设备配置的,其中用于指示MCS的比特数可以根据终端设备的MCS的最大值确定。FDRA指示域的比特数是预定义或者网络设备配置的,其中用于指示频域资源数的比特数可以根据终端设备的传输的频域资源数最大值确定。
在一种可能的设计中,用于指示MCS的比特数量为根据所述终端设备的MCS最大值确定的。
例如,用于指示MCS的比特的数量满足如下公式:
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000001
其中,k1为用于指示MCS的比特的数量,X为终端设备的MCS最大值。
目前,以MCS指示域的总比特数为4,第一值为9为例,因此若终端设备的MCS最大值等于9,则需要4个比特指示MCS,也就是MCS指示域的所有比特均用于指示MCS。本申请实施例中通过限制终端设备的MCS最大值小于9,使得指示MCS所需要的比特数减少,从而MCS指示域可以用多余的比特指示其他信息。以终端设备的MCS最大值为7为例,则需要
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000002
个比特指示MCS,因此MCS指示域可以用3个比特指示MCS,用剩余的1个比特作为重解读比特来指示其他信息。
在一种可能的设计中,用于指示频域资源数的比特数量为根据所述终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值确定的。
例如,用于指示频域资源数的比特的数量满足如下公式:

其中,k2为用于指示频域资源数的比特的数量,
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000004
为BWP包括的频域资源的数量,Y为频域资源数最大值。
目前,以FDRA指示域的总比特数为14,
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000005
为例,因此终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值等于273,则FDRA指示域的所有比特均用于指示频域资源信息。本申请实施例中通过限制终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值小于273,使得指示频域资源数所需要的比特数减少,从而FDRA指示域可以用多余的比特指示其他信息。以终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值为31,
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000006
为例,则需要
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000007
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000008
个比特指示MCS,因此FDRA指示域可以用13个比特指示频域资源分配信息,用剩余的1个比特作为重解读比特来指示其他信息。

具体实施方式
为了使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请实施例作进一步地详细描述。

网络设备,可以为用于实现接入网设备的功能的装置,接入网设备可以是指接入网中在空口通过一个或多个小区与无线终端设备通信的设备,例如可以是NR系统中的下一代基站(next Generation node B,gNB),可以是LTE系统中的演进型基站(evolutional node B,eNB)等。网络设备,也可以为能够支持网络设备实现该接入网设备功能的装置,例如芯片系统,该装置可以被安装在网络设备中。
2)本申请实施例中的终端设备可以为第一类终端设备或第二类终端设备,或者其他需要进行传输性能增强的终端设备,如NR增强型移动宽带(Enhanced Mobile Broadband,eMBB)终端设备等。第一类终端设备和第二类终端设备之间的区别包括如下至少一项:
1.带宽能力不同。第一类终端设备支持的最大带宽可以大于第二类终端设备支持的最大带宽。例如,第一类终端设备最大可以支持在一个载波上同时使用100MHz频域资源和网络设备进行通信,而第二类终端设备最大可以支持在一个载波上同时使用20MHz或者10MHz或者5MHz频域资源和网络设备进行通信。
2.收发天线个数不同。第一类终端设备的天线配置可以大于第二类终端设备的天线 配置。例如,第一类终端设备支持的最小天线配置可以大于第二类终端设备支持的最大天线配置。
3.上行最大发射功率不同。第一类终端设备的上行最大发射功率可以大于第二类终端设备的上行最大发射功率。
4.第一类终端设备与第二类终端设备对应的协议版本不同。例如NR Rel-15、NR Rel-16终端设备可以认为是第一类终端设备,第二类终端设备可以认为是NR Rel-17终端设备。
5.第一类终端设备与第二类终端设备支持的载波聚合(carrier aggregation,CA)能力不同。例如,第一类终端设备可以支持载波聚合,而第二类终端设备不支持载波聚合;又例如,第二类终端设备与第一类终端设备都支持载波聚合,但是第一类终端设备同时支持的载波聚合的最大个数大于第二类终端设备同时支持的载波聚合的最大个数。
6.第一类终端设备与第二类终端设备的频分双工(frequency division duplex,FDD)能力不同。例如,第一类终端设备可以支持全双工FDD,而第二类终端设备可以仅支持半双工FDD。

本申请实施例中“至少一个”是指一个或者多个,“多个”是指两个或两个以上。“和/或”,描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B的情况,其中A,B可以是单数或者复数。字符“/”一般表示前后关联对象是一种“或”的关系。“以下至少一项(个)”或其类似表达,是指的这些项中的任意组合,包括单项(个)或复数项(个)的任意组合。例如,a,b,或c中的至少一项(个),可以表示:a,b,c,a-b,a-c,b-c,或a-b-c,其中a,b,c可以是单个,也可以是多个。
以及,除非有相反的说明,本申请实施例提及“第一”、“第二”等序数词是用于对多个对象进行区分,不用于限定多个对象的大小、内容、顺序、时序、优先级或者重要程度等。例如,第一信息和第二信息,只是为了区分不同的信息,而并不是表示这两个信息的大小、内容、优先级或者重要程度等的不同。
前文介绍了本申请实施例所涉及到的一些名词概念,下面介绍本申请实施例涉及的技术特征。
随机接入过程包括4步随机接入信道(random access channel,RACH)和2步RACH。在4步RACH中网络设备在接收到终端设备发送的随机接入前导码(random access preamble)之后,向终端设备发送随机接入响应(random access response,RAR),其中包括上行资源分配信息等信息。终端设备基于RAR消息的调度进行发送随机接入过程中的第三消息(Msg 3),Msg3用于发送RRC建立连接请求。在2步RACH中,终端设备向网络设备发送消息A(MsgA),MsgA包括两部分,一部分是preamble,另一部分是物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH)载荷(payload)。MsgA消息,可以认为包括preamble和4步RACH中的Msg3所包括的内容。
目前,在初始接入阶段,网络设备配置一个小区公共的BWP用于终端设备进行随机 接入,包括初始下行BWP(initial DL BWP)和初始上行BWP(initial UL BWP)。其中,随机接入过程中的一些上行信道传输参数在初始上行BWP配置,包括第一消息(Msg1的物理随机接入信道(physical random access channel,PRACH))资源、第三消息(Msg3)的物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH)资源、第四消息(Msg4)的混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)-肯定确认(acknowledgment,ACK)反馈使用的公共PUCCH资源等。
由于第二类终端设备的带宽能力较小以及其他终端能力缩减,导致第二类终端设备与网络设备之间的通信性能较差,例如,Msg3传输的性能比较差,导致第二类终端设备无法接入到网络中。
基于此,本申请实施例提供一种通信方法及装置,可以解决由于带宽缩减和/或天线缩减以及其他终端能力缩减导致通信性能下降的问题。其中,方法和装置是基于同一构思的,由于方法及装置解决问题的原理相似,因此装置与方法的实施可以相互参见,重复之处不再赘述。
本申请提供的通信方法可以应用于各类通信系统中,例如,可以是物联网(internet of things,IoT)、窄带物联网(narrow band internet of things,NB-IoT)、长期演进(long term evolution,LTE),也可以是第五代(5G)通信系统,还可以是LTE与5G混合架构、也可以是5G新无线(new radio,NR)系统以及6G或者未来通信发展中出现的新的通信系统等。本申请所述的5G通信系统可以包括非独立组网(non-standalone,NSA)的5G通信系统、独立组网(standalone,SA)的5G通信系统中的至少一种。通信系统还可以是机器到机器(machine to machine,M2M)网络或者其他网络。
参阅图1所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种通信系统,该通信系统包括网络设备和六个终端设备,即UE1~UE6。在该通信系统中,UE1~UE6可以发送上行数据给网络设备,网络设备可以接收UE1~UE6发送的上行数据。此外,UE4~UE6也可以组成一个子通信系统。网络设备可以发送下行信息给UE1、UE2、UE3、UE5,UE5可以基于设备到设备(device-to-device,D2D)技术发送下行信息给UE4、UE6。图1仅是一种示意图,并不对通信系统的类型,以及通信系统内包括的设备的数量、类型等进行具体限定。
示例性的,网络设备与终端设备之间可以通过空口接口连接,例如,网络设备与终端设备之间的连接关系可以如图2所示。
本申请实施例描述的网络架构以及业务场景是为了更加清楚的说明本申请实施例的技术方案,并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定,本领域普通技术人员可知,随着网络架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似的技术问题同样适用。
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。为了便于介绍,在下文中,以该方法由网络设备和终端设备执行为例。
在本申请实施例中,“传输”可以理解为发送和/或接收,为了便于对方案的理解,下面以终端设备侧传输指发送、网络设备侧传输指接收,即终端设备发送第一信令、网络设备接收第一信令为例对本申请所述的通信方法进行说明。
参见图3,为本申请提供的一种通信方法的流程示意图。该方法包括:
S301,终端设备确定以跳频传输方式传输。
S302,网络设备确定以跳频传输方式传输。
也就是说,终端设备和网络设备可以确定接下来的一段时间中以跳频的方式发送和/或接收信息,或者确定以跳频的方式发送和/或接收某几个信息。S301和S302为可选步骤,本申请实施例不限定S301和S302的先后顺序。
S303,当以重复传输的方式传输时,终端设备以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式发送第一信令,和/或,当以不重复传输的方式传输时,以时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式发送第一信令。
相应的,终端设备以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式发送第一信令,网络设备以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式接收第一信令。终端设备以时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式发送第一信令,网络设备以时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式接收第一信令。示例性的,第一信令可以为Msg3、MsgA等信令。
应理解,本申请实施例所述的通信方法不仅可以适用于Msg3传输,同样可以适用于其他物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel,PDSCH)或者物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH)、物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel,PDCCH)或者物理上行共享信道(physical uplink control channel,PUSCH)、物理随机接入信道(physical random access channel,PRACH)或者物理上行共享信道(physical uplink shared channel,PUSCH)以参考信号(reference signal,RS),例如信息状态信息参考信号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)、探测参考信号(sounding reference signal,SRS)传输场景。
可选的,终端设备也可以采用本申请实施例所述的通信方法进行发送或接收信息、数据等。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例所述的通信方法也可以适应于下行传输。
跳频方式和重复方式包括以下至少一项:不跳频且不重复传输、不跳频且重复传输、时隙间跳频且重复传输、时隙间跳频且不重复传输、时隙内跳频且不重复传输、时隙内跳频且重复传输。也就是说,除了时隙间跳频且重复传输、时隙内跳频且不重复传输这两种传输类型以外,终端设备、网络设备还可以采用其余四种传输类型收发第一信令。
终端设备、网络设备可支持上述六种传输类型中的一种或者几种。
例如终端设备与网络设备可以支持时隙间跳频且重复传输和不跳频且不重复传输,根据预定义或者网路设备配置信息,确定使用时隙间跳频且重复传输或者不跳频且不重复传输。
又例如,终端设备与网络设备可以采用时隙间跳频且不重复传输的方式收发第一信令,在该模式中,一个传输块(transport block,TB)的编码块映射到多个时隙。又例如,终端设备与网络设备可以采用时隙内跳频且重复传输。
又例如,终端设备与网络设备可以采用不跳频且不重复传输的方式收发第一信令。
又例如,终端设备与网络设备可以采用不跳频且重复传输的方式收发第一信令,在该模式中第一信令的重复传输可以在时隙间或者时隙内进行。
一种实施方式中,终端设备可以根据来自网络设备的第一信息确定是否以重复传输的方式发送。或者,终端设备也可以根据预定义规则确定是否以重复传输的方式发送。网络设备可以根据预定义规则确定是否以重复传输的方式接收。该预定规则可以为协议规定是否进行重复传输,或者,协议规定进行重复传输的场景、信令等,和/或,不重复传输的场景、信令等。具体的,第一信息可以指示重复传输的次数,根据所述重复传输的次数指示 是否重复传输,例如重复传输的次数为1,意味着该传输仅进行一次,无需进行重复传输,重复传输的次数大于1,则指示该传输进行所述次数的重复传输,又例如,第一信息指示0可以代表不进行重复传输。
一种实施方式中,终端设备可以根据来自网络设备的第二信息确定以跳频传输方式发送,或者,也可以根据预定义规则确定以跳频传输方式发送。网络设备可以根据预定义规则确定以跳频传输方式接收。示例性的,预定义规则可以为协议规定是否进行跳频传输,或者,协议规定进行跳频传输的场景、信令等,和/或,不跳频传输的场景、信令等。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例不限定终端设备(或网络设备)确定是否以重复传输的方式发送的过程以及确定是否以跳频传输方式发送的过程的先后顺序。
一种示例性说明中,对于单时隙(single slot)传输,不重复传输是指一个传输块(transport block,TB)的编码块(codeword)映射到一个时隙内的时频资源上;重复传输是指一个TB的编码块映射到一个时隙内的时频资源上,并在多个时隙上进行重复映射。对于一个TB在多个slot上传输,是指一个TB的编码块映射到多个时隙内的时频资源上,可理解的,一个TB在多个slot上传输不属于重复传输。
本申请实施例中通过将重复传输与时隙间跳频进行组合,将不重复传输与时隙内跳频进行组合,使得终端设备在确定以重复传输的方式传输时可以采用时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式收发信令,从而可以同时获得跳频增益和时域联合信道估计增益,从而可以进一步提升通信性能。而在确定以不重复传输的方式传输时可以采用时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式收发信令,从而可以获得调频增益,提升通信性能。通过上述组合可以使得终端设备在通信获得较大的增益,从而使得通信性能得到一个较大的提升,并且可以节省信令开销。
例如,对于带宽能力较小的第二类终端设备,当该终端设备在一个较大的带宽中工作时,可以通过跳频的方式以根据不同的业务特性使用不同频率通信,提高通信效率;且带宽能力受限时,可以通过重传来增强传输性能。
以第一信令为Msg3为例,相比于目前Msg3以不重复传输的方式进行发送,本申请实施例中终端设备可以以重复传输以及时隙间跳频的方式发送Msg3,使得网络设备可以准确的接收Msg3,使得终端设备处在小区边缘区域或者覆盖受限区域时也可以与网络设备之间建立RRC连接,从而终端设备和网络设备之间可以通过RRC连接进行通信。
一种可能的实施方式中,网络设备可以通过如下信令指示上述第一信息、上述第二信息:系统消息块1(system information block 1,SIB1)或者随机接入响应中的上行链路授权(RAR UL grant)中重解读比特或者调度Msg2的下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)。
下面对RAR UL grant中重解读比特进行示例性说明。需要说明的是,网络设备通过RAR UL grant中重解读比特对信息进行指示的方式可以单独作为一个方案实施,例如,网络设备可以通过RAR UL grant中重解读比特指示冗余版本、混合自动重传请求进程、天线端口、重复传输信息、跳频信息时域资源分配等调度信息。
示例性的,RAR UL grant内容可以如表1所示。

一种举例说明中,RAR UL grant中重解读比特可以包括如下至少一项:MCS指示域中的K1个比特,K1为小于或等于N的正整数,N为MCS指示域的总比特数;FDRA指示域中的K2个比特,K2为小于或等于M的正整数,M为FDRA指示域的总比特数。
其中,K1可以根据第一信令的MCS最大值确定,该MCS最大值为预定义的或者网络设备配置的。K2可以为根据第一信令的频域资源数最大值确定的,该频域资源数最大值为预定义的或者网络设备配置的。
举例说明,上述K1个比特可以为MCS指示域中用于指示MCS的比特以外的比特,例如,MCS指示域包括K1+k1个比特,其中,k1个比特用于指示MCS,剩余K1个比特为RAR UL grant中重解读比特。上述K2个比特可以为FDRA指示域中用于指示频域资源数量的比特以外的比特,例如,FDRA指示域包括K2+k2个比特,其中,k2个比特用于指示频域资源数量,剩余K2个比特为RAR UL grant中重解读比特。
一种可能的实施方式中,终端设备可以通过如下步骤A1和A2确定用于指示MCS的比特的数量,和/或,用于指示频域资源数的比特数量,该实施方式也可以不依赖步骤S301-S303以及上述RAR UL grant中重解读比特方案单独作为一个方案实施:
A1,终端设备接收来自网络设备的第五信息,该第五信息用于指示如下至少一项:终端设备的MCS最大值,其中,该MCS最大值小于第一值,第一值为预定义或者网络设备配置的MCS最大值;终端设备的频域资源数最大值,其中,频域资源数最大值小于BWP包括的频域资源的数量。
示例性的,第一值为网络设备指示的MCS表格中的MCS最大值,例如,可以预定义多个MCS表格,网络设备可以从该多个MCS表格中指示终端设备使用的MCS表格,第一值为该MCS表格的最大值。
示例性的,第五信息可以是网络设备为第二类终端设备、或者其他需要增强传输性能的终端设备配置的MCS最大值和/频域资源数最大值。或者,第五信息可以是网络设备为终端设备的某一次通信配置的MCS最大值和/频域资源数最大值。
A2,终端设备可以根据第五信息确定第六信息,第六信息包括如下至少一项:用于指示MCS的比特数量、用于指示频域资源数的比特数量。
示例性的,终端设备确定的比特数可以是本次MCS指示所用到的比特数,也就是,终端设备确定的比特数可以仅针对本次MCS指示有效。
一种实现方式中,终端设备可以确定MCS指示域的比特数和/或FDRA指示域的比特数,其中,MCS指示域的比特数为根据最大值确定的,FDRA指示域的比特数为根据频域资源数最大值确定的。上述方式中,MCS指示域的比特数可以根据终端设备的MCS的最大值确定,FDRA指示域的比特数可以根据终端设备的传输所使用频域资源的数量的最大值确定。
另一种实现方式中,终端设备可以确定MCS指示域中用于指示MCS的比特的数量, 和/或,FDRA指示域中用于指示频域资源数的比特的数量。上述方式中,MCS指示域的比特数是预定义或者网络设备配置的,其中用于指示MCS的比特数可以根据终端设备的MCS的最大值确定。FDRA指示域的比特数是预定义或者网络设备配置的,其中用于指示频域资源数的比特数可以根据终端设备的传输的频域资源数最大值确定。
示例性的,MCS指示域中用于指示MCS的比特的数量(或者MCS指示域的比特数)可以满足如下公式:
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000011
其中,k1为MCS指示域中用于指示MCS的比特的数量(或者MCS指示域的比特数),X为终端设备的MCS最大值。例如,如果上述MCS指示域的高位比特不为0,则X取值可以为7。因此,k1可以等于3。目前,以MCS指示域的总比特数为4,第一值为9为例,因此终端设备的MCS最大值等于9,则需要=4个比特指示MCS,也就是MCS指示域的所有比特均用于指示MCS。本申请实施例中通过限制终端设备的MCS最大值小于9,使得指示MCS所需要的比特数减少,从而MCS指示域可以用多余的比特指示其他信息。以终端设备的MCS最大值为7为例,则需要
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000012
个比特指示MCS,因此MCS指示域可以用3个比特指示MCS,用剩余的1个比特作为重解读比特来指示其他信息。
FDRA指示域中用于指示频域资源数的比特的数量(或者FDRA指示域的比特数)可以满足如下公式:
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000013
其中,k2为FDRA指示域中用于指示频域资源数的比特的数量(或者FDRA指示域的比特数),
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000014
为BWP包括的频域资源的数量,Y为频域资源数最大值。例如,以
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000015
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000016
为例,频域资源数最大值Y可以为31。目前,以FDRA指示域的总比特数为14,
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000017
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000018
为例,因此终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值等于273,则FDRA指示域的所有比特均用于指示频域资源数。本申请实施例中通过限制终端设备的频域资源数最大值小于273,使得指示频域资源数所需要的比特数减少,从而FDRA指示域可以用多余的比特指示其他信息。以终端设备的传输对应的频域资源数最大值为31,
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000019
为例,则需要
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000020
个比特指示MCS,因此FDRA指示域可以用13个比特指示频域资源分配信息,用剩余的1个比特作为重解读比特来指示其他信息。
基于上述实施方式,K1可以满足如下公式:
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000021
举例说明,可以用MCS指示域的从低位到高位的
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000022
比特指示MCS,用剩余的
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000023
比特指示其他信息。
K2可以满足如下公式:

举例说明,可以用FDRA域的从低位到高位的
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000025
比特用于指示频域资源分配信息,用剩余的
Figure PCTCN2022083206-appb-000026
比特指示其他信息。
一个实施例中,上述K1个比特以及K2比特可以分开指示,例如,上述K1个比特可以指示第一信息,上述K2个比特指示第二信息。或者,上述K1个比特以及K2比特也可以联合指示。例如,上述K1个比特和上述K2个比特可以联合指示第一信息和第二信息。
应理解,上述举例仅是为了便于对方案的理解,并不对指示形式进行具体限定。
可选的,网络设备也可以采用RAR UL grant中重解读比特与用于调度RAR的DCI、SIB1联合指示的方式指示第一信息和/或第二信息,如,可以通过RAR UL grant中重解读比特以及用于调度RAR的DCI联合指示是否重复传输和/或是否跳频传输。又如,可以通 过RAR UL grant中重解读比特以及SIB1半静态配置是否重复传输和/或是否跳频传输。
一种实现方式中,若终端设备以时隙内跳频且不重复传输的方式发送第一信令,跳频方式可以为BWP内跳频。
一种实现方式中,若终端设备以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式发送第一信令,跳频方式可以包括BWP间跳频和/或BWP内跳频。BWP间跳频可以指跳频传输的频域位置位于不同BWP上,BWP内跳频可以指跳频传输的频域位置位于同一BWP内。需要说明的是,对于BWP间跳频,由于进行BWP切换,BWP切换期间需要进行射频重调等,因此在BWP间跳频时,相邻的两次传输之间可以存在X符号/时隙时长的间隔,X与终端设备能力相关,在该间隔期间,终端设备不进行数据收发。而对于BWP内跳频,相邻的两次传输之间可以没有间隔,即相邻两次传输时域上可以是连续的,进而提高传输效率。
可选的,网络设备可以通过第二信令指示频域跳频模式为BWP间跳频或者BWP内跳频,第二信令可以通过如下信令指示:系统广播信息、RRC信令、媒体访问控制信道单元(media access control channel element,MAC CE)、DCI等。具体地,若第一信令为Msg3,第二信令可以包括:SIB1或者用于调度Msg2的DCI或者上述RAR UL grant中重解读比特。
可选的,网络设备还可以通过第三信息指示BWP间跳频的跳频位置,和/或,通过第四信息用于指示BWP内跳频的跳频位置。示例性的,网络设备可以通过如下两种实施方式指示第三信息和/或第四信息:
实施方式一,如果频域跳频模式为BWP内跳频,则网络设备可以重用现有RAR UL grant中FDRA指示域的跳频指示比特指示第二次跳频传输的频域偏移(offset),即网络设备可以通过RAR UL grant中的frequency hopping flag指示域指示终端设备是否进行跳频传输。协议可以预定义几组第二跳传输的频域偏移值,并通过RAR UL grant中FDRA指示域的高位比特进行指示。具体地,频域偏移可以为RB个数,其中,所述频域offset可以为现有技术中预定义的值,也可以是新引入的值。其中新引入的offset值,既可以是协议预定义的值,也可以是网络设备配置的,例如通过如下信令配置:SIB1、用于调度Msg2的DCI、上述RAR UL grant中重解读比特等。
如果频域跳频模式为BWP间跳频,则网络设备可以通过SIB1中预配置一个或者多个跳频的BWP ID序列,并通过用于调度Msg2的DCI、上述RAR UL grant中重解读比特进行指示采用其中哪一个跳频的BWP ID序列。举例说明,网络设备可以预配置四个BWP,当网络设备配置BWP间跳频时,可以配置跳频传输的过程中BWP的ID序列,例如(0,2,1,3)、(2,0,3,1)等。在一种实施方法中,在不同BWP间进行跳频传输时,每次传输在BWP内的相对频域位置可以是相同的。
实施方式二,对于BWP间跳频和BWP内跳频,可以预定义或者网络设备配置下一次跳频传输的频域偏移值。对于BWP内跳频,频域偏移值可以小于当前BWP的大小,对于BWP间跳频,频域偏移值可以大于或等于当前BWP的大小。例如,BWP大小为51RBs,对于BWP内跳频,频域偏移值配置为{10,20,30},对于BWP间跳频,频域偏移值配置为{60,70,80}。
对于上述两种实施方式,网络设备可以同时配置BWP间跳频和BWP内跳频的频域偏移值,终端设备可以根据确定的频域跳频模式,来确定使用哪组频域偏移值进行跳频传输。例如网络设备配置频域偏移值包括{10,20,30,60,70,80},当终端设备确定为BWP内跳频时, 可使用的偏移值为{10,20,30},当确定为BWP间跳频时,可使用的偏移值为{60,70,80}。
一种具体的示例中,网络设备可以配置3个BWP,分别为BWP0、BWP1、BWP2。网络设备可以指示终端设备以重复传输以及BWP间跳频的方式发送Msg3。其中,重复传输次数为6次,且每2次重复传输之后进行BWP间跳频,BWP间跳频时的BWP ID序列为(0,1,2),6次传输的时频域位置如图4所示。
本申请所述的BWP间跳频、BWP内跳频中所述的“BWP”可以理解为频域资源块。需要说明的是,本申请实施例仅以频域资源为BWP为例进行说明,频域资源也可以为其他资源块,不限于BWP这个粒度,例如还可以是由连续的资源块(resource block,RB)组成的频域资源块。
例如,在多个BWP间跳频时,该多个BWP可以具有不同的BWP索引值。或者,该多个BWP可以具有相同的索引值但在不同的频域位置或者具有不同的起始位置。一种示例性说明中,如果所述多个BWP应用于初始接入阶段,例如Msg3,第四消息(Msg4)的混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)-肯定确认(acknowledgment,ACK)反馈使用的公共PUCCH资源,PRACH等信道,则所述多个BWP可以为初始上行BWP。
在一个实施例中,网络设备可以为终端设备配置多个BWP。该多个BWP可以具有不同的BWP索引值。或者,该多个BWP可以具有相同的索引值但在不同的频域位置或者具有不同的起始位置。以所述多个BWP为初始上行BWP为例,网络设备可以配置多个初始上行BWP,其中,该多个初始上行BWP包括至少一个第一初始上行BWP和至少一个第二初始上行BWP,所述至少一个第一初始上行BWP是网络设备为第一类终端设备配置的,所述至少一个第二初始上行BWP是网络设备为第二类终端设备配置的。
对于第二类终端设备,若第二类终端设备工作在第二初始上行BWP时即当前激活BWP为第二初始上行BWP,第二类终端设备在第二初始上行BWP进行传输时,所述传输的频域资源分配信息可以通过以下三种方式确定:
1)根据第二初始上行BWP确定,具体地,可以根据第二初始上行BWP的起始位置和第二初始上行BWP包括的RB数中的至少一项确定。
2)根据第一初始上行BWP确定,具体地,可以根据第一初始上行BWP的起始位置和第一初始上行BWP包括的RB数中的至少一项确定。
3)根据第一初始上行BWP和第二初始上行BWP确定,具体地,可以根据第二初始上行BWP的起始位置和第二初始上行BWP与第一初始上行BWP之间的相对位置以及第一初始上行BWP包括的RB数中的至少一项确定。
扩展地,当终端设备确定的传输的频域资源在第二初始上行BWP范围内时,可以不进行射频链路调整,当终端设备确定的数据传输的频域资源在第二初始上行BWP范围外时,可以进行射频链路调整。
需要说明的是,上述配置BWP的方式可以不依赖步骤S301-S303,单独作为一个方案实施。可选的,对于第二类终端设备,无论是初始接入结论和初始接入之后阶段,均可以允许网络设备配置的载波带宽(carrier bandwidth)大于UE最大带宽。具体的,可以有以下两种实施方法:
1)网络设备在初始接入阶段和初始接入之后阶段,分别配置carrier bandwidth,所述carrier bandwidth均允许大于UE最大带宽;
2)网络设备在初始接入阶段配置carrier bandwidth,所述carrier bandwidth允许大于UE最大带宽,在初始接入之后阶段继续使用初始接入阶段配置的carrier bandwidth。
又一种实施方式中,第二类终端可以上报大于其支持的最大带宽的带宽能力。网络设备根据所述带宽能力为第二类终端配置carrier bandwidth。
需要说明的是,上述配置载波带宽的方式可以不依赖步骤S301-S303,单独作为一个方案实施。
一种可能的实施方式中,终端设备以时隙间跳频且重复传输的方式发送第一信令时,可以采用如下方式发送:每进行P次重复传输后,以进行时隙间跳频的方式重复发送第一信令,其中,P为正整数。也就是,终端设备每重复发送P次第一信令后,以进行时隙间跳频的方式重复发送第一信令。示例性的,P的取值可以是网络设备配置的,例如通过如下信令指示:SIB1或者上述RAR UL grant中重解读比特或者调度Msg2的DCI等。或者,P的取值也可以是预定义的,例如,P可以为根据重复传输次数确定的。通过上述方式可以同时获得跳频增益和时域联合信道估计增益,从而可以进一步提升通信性能。
