Specification

Method and device for transmitting and receiving uplink signals
technical field
[0001]
The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of communication technologies.
Background technique
[0002]
Unlicensed frequency bands are an important part of spectrum resources. Currently, many systems support data transmission in unlicensed frequency bands, such as WiFi, Long Term Evolution (LTE, Long Term Evolution), and License Assisted Access (LAA, License Assisted Access), etc. . However, currently the New Radio (NR, New Radio) system does not support unlicensed frequency bands.
[0003]
In the unlicensed frequency band, in order to use spectrum resources fairly and efficiently among different systems/devices, a device needs to confirm that the resources are available before starting to send data before sending data. Since it is necessary to confirm that the resource is available before sending, the uplink transmission based on dynamic scheduling requires the network device (such as a base station) to confirm that a resource is available before sending the dynamic scheduling indication information; the terminal device (such as the UE) confirms the resource indicated by the dynamic scheduling indication information. After it is available, the uplink transmission is sent on the corresponding resource. This leads to a decrease in the efficiency of uplink transmission based on dynamic scheduling and a possible increase in delay; in this sense, applying uplink transmission not based on dynamic scheduling in unlicensed frequency bands can achieve higher efficiency and lower delay.
[0004]
On the other hand, NR introduces Configuration Grant (CG, Configuration Grant). NR supports two types of CG: the first type of configuration authorization (CG Type 1) and the second type of configuration authorization (CG Type 2).
[0005]
In CG Type 1, the time-frequency resources and other parameters required for sending PUSCH on the configured time-frequency resources are configured through RRC signaling. After the terminal device receives the RRC signaling, it can send on the configured time-frequency resources. PUSCH.
[0006]
In CG Type 2, resource configuration includes two steps: after configuring parameters such as the period of time domain resources through high-level signaling, then configuring time domain resources, frequency domain resources and other PUSCH on the configured time-frequency resources through an activated DCI The required parameters, after receiving the activated DCI, the terminal device can send the PUSCH on the configured time-frequency resources.
[0007]
It should be noted that the above description of the technical background is only for the convenience of clearly and completely describing the technical solutions of the present application and facilitating the understanding of those skilled in the art.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0009]

[0064]
The following describes the scenarios of the embodiments of the present application by using examples, but the present application is not limited thereto.
[0065]
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication system according to an embodiment of the present application, which schematically illustrates the case of a terminal device and a network device as an example. As shown in FIG. 1 , a communication system 100 may include a network device 101 and terminal devices 102 and 103 .

[0067]
In order to support data transmission in unlicensed frequency bands, LAA (hereinafter referred to as LTE-LAA) is introduced in LTE. LTE-LAA supports an uplink transmission based on semi-persistent scheduling, such as AUL PUSCH. In order to reduce the workload of standardization, the scheme in LTE-LAA can be used as much as possible to support uplink transmission based on semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling in NR_U. However, from LTE to NR, the flexibility of NR increases and can cover more application scenarios. Accordingly, the industry expects NR_U to be more flexible than LTE-LAA.
[0068]
For example, only two channel access modes are supported in LTE-LAA, while more than two channel access modes may be supported in NR_U. For example, a Channel Occupation Time (COT, Channel Occupation Time) in LTE-LAA includes only one uplink-downlink conversion, while in NR-U, a channel occupancy time may include two or more uplink-downlink conversions.
[0069]
For another example, only 15 kHz subcarrier spacing (SCS, SubCarrier Spacing) is supported in LTE-LAA, while more than one SCS may be supported in NR_U, for example, 15 kHz, 30 kHz, 60 kHz, 120 kHz, and so on.
[0070]
For another example, in LTE-LAA, scheduling is performed in units of subframes, while in NR_U, scheduling may be supported in units of slots (slots) and/or symbols (symbols).
[0071]
For another example, LTE-LAA only supports sending PUSCH and Sounding Reference Signal (SRS, Sounding Reference Signal) in unlicensed frequency bands, and NR_U may also support sending Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH, Physical Random Access Channel) and Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH, Physical Uplink Control Channel), PRACH and PUCCH may also be sent on semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resources.
[0072]
Considering the above difference between NR_U and LTE-LAA, the solution in LTE-LAA cannot be directly applied to NR_U. The embodiments of the present application provide an uplink transmission scheme suitable for NR_U.
[0073]
In the following description, the terms "uplink control signal" and "uplink control information (UCI, Uplink Control Information)" or "physical uplink control channel (PUCCH, Physical Uplink Control Channel)" can be used interchangeably without causing confusion. In other words, the terms "uplink data signal" and "uplink data information" or "Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH, Physical Uplink Shared Channel)" can be interchanged;
[0074]
The terms "downlink control signal" and "downlink control information (DCI, Downlink Control Information)" or "physical downlink control channel (PDCCH, Physical Downlink Control Channel)" are interchangeable, and the terms "downlink data signal" and "downlink data information" Or "Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH, Physical Downlink Shared Channel)" can be interchanged.
[0075]
In addition, sending or receiving PUSCH can be understood as sending or receiving uplink data carried by PUSCH, and sending or receiving PUCCH can be understood as sending or receiving uplink information carried by PUCCH; uplink signals can include uplink data signals and/or uplink control signals, etc. , which may also be called UL transmission or uplink information or uplink channel.
[0076]
Embodiments of the first aspect
[0077]
An embodiment of the present application provides a method for sending an uplink signal, which is described from the side of a terminal device. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a method for sending an uplink signal according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 2 , the method includes:
[0078]
201. The terminal device receives first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate at least one time-frequency resource of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling;
[0079]
202. The terminal device receives physical layer signaling, where the physical layer signaling is used to indicate a first starting position, and the first starting position is within one or more time-frequency resources of the at least one time-frequency resource. in the time domain; and
[0080]
203. The terminal device starts to send an uplink signal on the one or more time-frequency resources from the first starting position.
[0081]
It should be noted that the above FIG. 2 only schematically illustrates the embodiment of the present application, but the present application is not limited thereto. For example, the execution order of the various operations can be adjusted appropriately, and other operations can be added or some of the operations can be reduced. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate modifications according to the above content, and are not limited to the description of the above-mentioned FIG. 2 .
[0082]
In some embodiments, the first indication information is carried by, for example, high-level signaling and/or physical layer signaling, and the high-level signaling is, for example, Radio Resource Control (RRC, Radio Resource Control) signaling (for example, referred to as an RRC message (RRC message). ), for example, including MIB, system information, dedicated RRC message; or called RRC IE (RRC information element)) and/or MAC (Medium Access Control) signaling (or called MAC IE (MAC information element)); but this The application is not limited to this. The first indication information is used to indicate at least one time-frequency resource of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling. The at least one time-frequency resource is used for the terminal device to send an uplink signal.
[0083]
FIG. 3 is an example diagram of a time-frequency resource of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 3 , a time-frequency resource that can be semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled in one cycle.
[0084]
FIG. 4 is another example diagram of time-frequency resources of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling according to an embodiment of the present application, and FIG. 5 is another example diagram of time-frequency resources of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 , it is assumed that there are two or more time-frequency resources in a semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling in a period, and at least two adjacent time-frequency resources in the time domain are discontinuous.
[0085]
FIG. 6 is another example diagram of time-frequency resources of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, it is assumed that there are two or more time-frequency resources in a semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling in a period, and the time-frequency resources adjacent to each other in the time domain are continuous.
[0086]
FIG. 3 to FIG. 6 schematically illustrate by taking the semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling of time-frequency resources periodically as an example, but the present application is not limited thereto.
[0087]
The terminal device may send an uplink signal on one or more of these time-frequency resources (herein referred to as at least one time-frequency resource) that are semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled, and the one or more time-frequency resources are, for example, a terminal Equipment selection, this application is not limited to this. For simplicity, the one or more time-frequency resources are referred to as the first time-frequency resource, and the current transmission of the uplink signal (or the current uplink transmission) is referred to as the first uplink transmission.
[0088]
In some embodiments, the uplink signal may include at least one of the following signals or channels: Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH), Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), reference signals (eg sounding reference signal (SRS), demodulation reference signal (DMRS)). The present application is not limited to this, and the PUSCH will be used as an example for description below.
[0089]
In LTE-LAA, only one uplink and downlink conversion is included in one channel occupation time (COT), and the time interval between adjacent transmissions in one COT is not strictly limited. FIG. 7 is an example diagram of the COT of LTE-LAA. As shown in FIG. 7 , only one uplink and downlink conversion is included in one channel occupation time.
[0090]
But in NR_U, one channel occupation time may include two or more uplink and downlink conversions. Considering fair coexistence with other technologies (eg, LAA, WiFi, etc.), there may be stricter constraints on the time interval between adjacent transmissions in a COT. FIG. 8 is an example diagram of a COT according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 8 , one channel occupation time may include two or more uplink and downlink conversions.
[0091]
For example, if the terminal device uses the following class 1 channel access mode to send an uplink transmission, the time interval between the uplink transmission and the previous transmission may need to meet a certain time interval requirement. For example, the time interval between the upstream transmission and the previous transmission is not greater than 25us.
[0092]
Further, the channel access mode of class 1 supported in LTE-LAA only includes mode B, while NR_U will support more than one channel access mode of class 1, and the time interval corresponding to different channel access modes of class 1 Requirements may also vary.
[0093]
For example, as shown in Table 1 below, if the terminal device uses Mode B to send an uplink transmission, the time interval between the uplink transmission and the previous transmission should be equal to 25us; if the terminal device uses Mode C to send an uplink transmission, the uplink transmission The time interval between the transmission and the previous transmission should be equal to 16us. If the terminal device uses Mode C to send an uplink transmission, the time interval between the uplink transmission and the previous transmission should be less than or equal to 16us.
[0094]
Table 1
[0095]
[table 0001]
way B =25us
way C =16us
way D =<16us
[0096]
Since the last transmission may be sent by the base station or other devices, in order to ensure that the time interval between the uplink transmission and the last transmission meets the requirements, the base station needs to dynamically indicate a starting position for sending the uplink transmission.
[0097]
In this embodiment of the present application, the network device can dynamically indicate the first starting position within the time domain range of the first time-frequency resource through physical layer signaling, so as to ensure that the first uplink transmission is compatible with other transmissions (for example, the last The time interval between uplink transmissions) meets the requirements, so that the CG uplink transmissions that meet the NR-U requirements can be supported.
[0098]
In some embodiments, physical layer signaling refers to control information carried through a physical layer control channel and/or physical layer signal, such as information carried by DCI and/or sequence in PDCCH, but the present application is not limited thereto. One physical layer signaling may be used to indicate one or more first starting positions.
[0099]
For example, one physical layer signaling is only used to indicate the first starting position corresponding to the first time-frequency resource.
[0100]
For another example, the physical layer signaling is used to indicate the first starting position corresponding to the first time-frequency resource, and also used to indicate the first starting position corresponding to the second time-frequency resource. Wherein, the first time-frequency resource is one or more continuous or discontinuous time-frequency resources in the time domain, and the second time-frequency resource is another one or more continuous or discontinuous time-frequency resources. The first start position corresponding to the first time-frequency resource is within the time domain range of the first time-frequency resource, and the first start position corresponding to the second time-frequency resource is within the time domain range of the second time-frequency resource. The method for the terminal device to send the uplink signal on the second time-frequency resource is the same as the behavior for sending the uplink signal on the first time-frequency resource.
[0101]
In some embodiments, the channel access modes can be divided into two categories: a first type of channel access mode (class 1) and a second type of channel access mode (class 2).
[0102]
The first type of channel access mode (class 1) is a channel access mode for channel sharing; for example, it may include:
[0103]
Mode B (channel access Type B): channel access with a channel detection time of 25us;
[0104]
Mode C (channel access Type C): channel access with a channel detection time of 16us (not supported in LTE-LAA);
[0105]
Mode D (channel access Type D): direct transmission (not supported in LTE-LAA).
[0106]
The second type of channel access mode (class 2) is the channel access mode used to initialize the occupied channel, or is referred to as an independent channel access mode; for example, it may include:
[0107]
Mode A (channel access Type A): Channel access with random backoff based on a variable contention window.
[0108]
Class 1 may also include other channel access methods, for example, multiple channel access methods in class 1 may have different channel detection times; class 2 may also include other channel access methods, for example, in class 2 Multiple channel access modes can have different priorities, and different priorities have different value ranges of the contention window. The channel access method is only schematically described above, and the present application is not limited to this. For example, more methods can be defined by changing the channel detection time and/or priority.
[0109]
In some embodiments, the terminal device may support one or more of class 1, and/or, may also support one or more of class 2. For a certain uplink transmission, one of at least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device needs to be adopted.
[0110]
For example, the terminal device can support at least one first channel access mode, such as supporting modes B and C; it can also support at least one first channel access mode and at least one second channel access mode, such as supporting mode A and mode B; at least one second channel access mode, such as mode A, may also be supported.
[0111]
For example, the terminal equipment supports Mode A and Mode B, and the first uplink transmission can be sent in Mode B (the first channel access mode), or it can be said that the terminal device can use Mode B (the first channel access mode) to send the first uplink transmission. An uplink transmission.
[0112]
In this application, at least one channel access mode supported (or capable of being adopted) by the terminal device includes a channel access mode that can be used by the terminal device to send the above-mentioned first uplink transmission on the above-mentioned first time-frequency resource. The at least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device may be per UE (that is, for different uplink transmission types and/or different time-frequency resource configurations, at least one channel access mode that a terminal device can use) The way is the same), it can also be for time-frequency resource configuration (per resource configuration) and/or uplink transmission type (per UL transmission type) (that is, for different uplink transmission types and/or different time-frequency resource configuration, At least one channel access mode that a terminal device can adopt may be different).
[0113]
In this case, before sending the first uplink transmission, the terminal device may determine, according to the time-frequency resource configuration corresponding to the first time-frequency resource and/or the uplink transmission type corresponding to the first uplink transmission, which can be used by the terminal device in the above-mentioned first uplink transmission. The channel access mode (or at least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device) of the first uplink transmission is sent on the time-frequency resource.
[0114]
In some embodiments, the first channel access manner and/or the second channel access manner belong to at least one channel access manner supported (or capable of being adopted) by the terminal device, for example, the at least one channel access manner The channel access mode belonging to class 1 is referred to as the first channel access mode, and the channel access mode belonging to class 2 in the at least one channel access mode is referred to as the second channel access mode. At least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device may be predefined or preconfigured or indicated by the network device.
[0115]
In this application, the network device indication means that the network device is instructed by high-layer signaling and/or physical layer signaling. RRC message), for example, including MIB, system information, dedicated RRC message; or called RRC IE (RRC information element)) and/or MAC (Medium Access Control) signaling (or called MAC IE (MAC information element)).
[0116]
For example, the at least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device may be predefined according to the type of uplink transmission, and the channel access modes that can be adopted corresponding to different uplink signal types may be different. For example, if the uplink transmission is CG PUSCH, at least one channel access mode supported (or able to be adopted) by the terminal device may include mode A and mode B; if the uplink transmission is PRACH, the terminal device supports (or can adopt) The at least one channel access manner may include manner A and manner C.
[0117]
For another example, the at least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device may be indicated by the network device through high layer signaling and/or physical layer signaling. Specifically, for example, it may be indicated by the network device while indicating at least one time-frequency resource of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling. For example, the first indication information includes an indication field, where the indication field is used to indicate that the terminal device can send at least one time-frequency resource for uplink transmission on at least one time-frequency resource of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling indicated by the first indication information. A channel access mode, at least one channel access mode indicated by the indication is at least one channel access mode supported by the terminal device, or can be used by the terminal device to send the above-mentioned first uplink on the above-mentioned first time-frequency resource The transmission channel access method.
[0118]
If the channel access mode supported by the terminal device includes at least one channel access mode of class 1, since the channel access mode of class 1 is a channel access mode used for channel sharing, and the terminal device cannot predict whether the base station occupies the channel, so , whether the terminal device can use one of the at least one class 1 channel access mode to send the uplink transmission depends on the dynamic indication of the base station.
[0119]
In this embodiment of the present application, the network device can dynamically indicate the first starting position and/or the first channel access mode through physical layer signaling, which can not only ensure the uplink transmission and other transmissions (for example, the last uplink transmission) The time interval between them meets the requirements, and can support multiple channel access modes, so as to support the transmission and reception of CG-based uplink signals that meet the NR-U requirements.
[0120]
In some embodiments, the physical layer signaling includes second indication information, where the second indication information is used to indicate the first channel access mode and/or the first starting position. The second indication information may directly or indirectly indicate the first channel access mode and/or the first starting position.
[0121]
For example, if the channel access mode supported by the terminal device includes only one channel access mode belonging to class 1 (that is, the channel access mode supported by the terminal device only includes one channel access mode for channel sharing), then The second indication information may also indirectly indicate the first channel access mode used for sending the uplink transmission on the first time-frequency resource by indicating that COT sharing (COT sharing) is used on the first time-frequency resource.
[0122]
For example, if the channel access mode supported by the UE only includes mode B but does not include other channel access modes belonging to class 1, in other words, the channel access mode that can be used by the UE to send a PUSCH on the first time-frequency resource only includes Including mode B but excluding other channel access modes belonging to class 1, the second indication information instructs the UE to use COT sharing on the first time-frequency resource, that is, it indicates that the UE uses the mode to send the PUSCH on the first time-frequency resource B.
[0123]
In some embodiments, the physical layer signaling includes second indication information, the second indication information is used to indicate the first starting position; and the third indication information contained in the physical layer signaling or other physical layer signaling The indication information indicates the first channel access mode.
[0124]
For example, the third indication information is sent through physical layer signaling. The second indication information and the third indication information may be signaled at the same physical layer, or may be signaled at different physical layers. The physical layer signaling may be cell-specific, group-common, or UE-specific; the physical layer signaling is, for example, information carried by DCI and/or sequence.
[0125]
In some embodiments, the second indication information indicates a first offset value of the first starting position relative to the second time position. The second time position may be within the time domain range of the one or more time domain resources; for example, the second time position is the start position of the first symbol of the first time domain resource, or, The second time position is the second starting position described below.
[0126]
In some embodiments, there is a corresponding relationship between the first channel access mode and the first starting position; the corresponding relationship is predefined or preconfigured or indicated by a network device. The second indication information may indicate the first channel access mode and/or the first starting position based on the corresponding relationship. For example, if a first channel access mode corresponds to a unique first starting position, the second indication information may indirectly indicate the first starting position by indicating the first channel access mode. If a first starting position corresponds to a unique first starting position the first channel access mode, the second indication information may indirectly indicate the first channel access mode by indicating the first starting position.
[0127]
For example, the first channel access mode and the first offset value may correspond, and the first channel access mode and the first starting position may be indicated by the second indication information.
[0128]
Table 2 is an example of the one-to-one correspondence between the first channel access mode and the first offset value, but the present application is not limited to the one-to-one correspondence, and other correspondences are also possible.
[0129]
Table 2
[0130]
[table 0002]
The first channel access method first offset value
way B 25us
way C 16us
way D 0us
[0131]
In Table 2, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the first channel access mode and the first offset value. Therefore, the second indication information may only include the indication information of the first channel access mode or the indication information of the first offset value. . Based on the corresponding relationship, the UE may determine the corresponding first offset value or the first channel access mode.
[0132]
For example, if the second indication information indicates mode B, the UE knows that the first offset value is 25us, and the UE can determine the first starting position according to the first offset value. Or, if the second indication information indicates that the first offset value is 25us, the UE knows that the first channel access mode is mode B.
[0133]
For another example, the first channel access mode and the set of first offset values ​​may correspond. Table 3 is an example of the one-to-one correspondence between the first channel access mode and the first offset value set, but the present application is not limited to the one-to-one correspondence, and other correspondences are also possible.
[0134]
table 3
[0135]
[table 0003]
The first channel access method first set of offset values
way B 25us,25us+TA
way C 16us, 16us + TA
way D 0us
[0136]
In Table 3, one first channel access mode corresponds to one first offset value set, and one first offset value corresponds to one first channel access mode. Therefore, the second indication information may only include indication information of the first channel access mode, and based on the corresponding relationship, the UE may determine the corresponding first offset value set, and further determine the first offset value according to the third indication information, At this time, the third indication information may indicate one first offset value in the corresponding first offset value set. Alternatively, the second indication information may only include indication information of the first offset value, so that, based on the corresponding relationship, the UE may determine the corresponding first channel access mode.
[0137]
The above example of the value of the first offset value may make the time interval between the uplink transmission and the previous transmission not greater than 25us, but the present application is not limited to this. Although the NR_U will support two or more uplink and downlink conversions included in one COT, according to the implementation of the base station, one cell can also support one COT including one uplink and downlink conversion. In a COT including an uplink and downlink conversion, the time interval requirement between adjacent transmissions can be more relaxed. Therefore, in order to increase network flexibility, the second offset value may also be greater than 25us. For example, assuming that the subcarrier spacing is 15 kHz, the value range of the first offset value is {16us, 25us, 34us, 43us, 52us, 61us, 1symbol}.
[0138]
In some embodiments, if the first time-frequency resource is within the channel occupation time including at least two uplink and downlink conversions, and the terminal device uses the first channel access mode to send the uplink signal on the first time-frequency resource, the The first offset value should make the time interval between the upstream transmission and the previous transmission meet the requirements. For example, assuming that the time interval should not be greater than 25us, the first offset value is not greater than 25us.
[0139]
For example, if the base station indicates that in the COT including two or more uplink and downlink conversions, the uplink transmission of the UE adopts the channel access mode of class 1, it needs to ensure that the first offset value is not greater than 25us.
[0140]
It is worth noting that the correspondence between the above first channel access mode and the first offset value or the first offset value set may be predefined or preconfigured, and may also be indicated by a network device (such as a base station), and the above It is described only as an example, and the present application is not limited thereto.
[0141]
In some embodiments, the terminal device may use the first channel access manner to send the uplink signal from the first starting position on the first time-frequency resource. The terminal device may also use the second channel access mode to send the uplink signal from the second starting position on the first time-frequency resource.
[0142]
In some embodiments, when the judgment condition is met, the terminal device uses the first channel access mode to send the uplink signal from the first starting position on one or more time-frequency resources; if the judgment condition is not met In the case of using the second channel access mode, the uplink signal is sent from the second starting position on one or more time-frequency resources, wherein the second starting position within the time domain range of the one or more time-frequency resources The location is predefined or preconfigured or indicated by network equipment (eg by higher layer signaling).
[0143]
In some embodiments, the judgment condition may include: whether the physical layer signaling is received no later than the first time position of the one or more time-frequency resources. The time interval between the first time position and the start position of the first time-frequency resource of the one or more time-frequency resources is not less than the preparation time of the uplink signal, or the first time-frequency resource The time interval between the time position and the second starting position is not less than the preparation time of the uplink signal. The embodiment of the present application is not limited to this, and other judgment conditions may also be used.
[0144]
9 is another schematic diagram of a method for sending an uplink signal according to an embodiment of the present application, which is described by taking the terminal device supporting at least one first channel access mode and at least one second channel access mode as an example. As shown in Figure 9, the method includes:
[0145]
901. The terminal device receives first indication information, where the first indication information is used to indicate at least one time-frequency resource of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling;
[0146]
902. Determine whether physical layer signaling is received before the first time position, where the physical layer signaling is used to indicate a first start time within the time domain range of one or more time-frequency resources in the at least one time-frequency resource. Start position; if so, execute 903, otherwise execute 904;
[0147]
903. Use the first channel access mode to send the uplink signal from the first starting position on the one or more time-frequency resources;
[0148]
904. Use the second channel access mode to send the uplink signal from the second starting position on the one or more time-frequency resources, wherein the first position within the time domain range of the one or more time-frequency resources The two starting locations are predefined or preconfigured or indicated by network equipment (eg, by higher layer signaling and/or physical layer signaling).
[0149]
For example, the indication information for indicating the second starting position may be included in the RRC message including the above-mentioned first indication information. For another example, in the case of semi-persistent scheduling, indication information for indicating the second starting position may be included in the physical layer signaling including the above-mentioned first indication information.
[0150]
It is worth noting that the above FIG. 9 only schematically illustrates the embodiment of the present application, but the present application is not limited thereto. For example, the execution order of the various operations can be adjusted appropriately, and other operations can be added or some of the operations can be reduced. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate modifications according to the above content, and are not limited to the description of the above-mentioned FIG. 9 .
[0151]
In some embodiments, the second starting location is predefined or preconfigured.
[0152]
For example, the UE selects a second offset value from a predefined set of second offset values, so that the second starting position can be determined according to the selected second offset value. The second offset value may be an offset value relative to the start position of the first symbol of the first time-frequency resource.
[0153]
In some embodiments, the second starting position is indicated by the network device through fourth indication information; the fourth indication information is used to indicate the first position of the second starting position relative to the one or more time-frequency resources. The second offset value of the starting position of a symbol, or a set of second offset values ​​indicating the second offset value.
[0154]
For example, the fourth indication information may indicate a second offset value, and the UE may determine the second starting position according to the second offset value; or, the fourth indication information may indicate a second offset value set, and the UE may One second offset value is selected from the second offset value set, so that the second starting position can be determined according to the selected second offset value.
[0155]
The channel access manner and starting position of the present application have been schematically described above, and the subcarrier spacing will be described below.
[0156]
In some embodiments, the sub-carrier spacing (SCS) of the one or more time-frequency resources is one of at least two sub-carrier spacings, and the terminal device further determines the sub-carrier spacing (SCS) of the one or more time-frequency resources according to the The carrier spacing determines the first starting position and/or the second starting position.
[0157]
In some embodiments, at least two types of subcarrier spacings correspond to different first starting positions, and/or at least two types of subcarrier spacings correspond to different second starting positions.
[0158]
For example, the first offset value and the second offset value may be characterized by the number of symbols and/or the length of time, eg, 1symbol, 1symbol+Xus, Yus. More than one SCS may be supported in NR_U, for example, 15kHz, 30kHz, 60kHz, 120kHz, etc. The time length of one symbol of different SCSs is different. In order to meet the same time interval requirement, the first offset value or the second offset value required by different SCSs may be different.
[0159]
In some embodiments, at least two types of subcarrier spacings correspond to different first offset values, and/or at least two types of subcarrier spacings correspond to different second offset values.
[0160]
Take the second offset value as an example. The value range of the second offset value corresponding to different subcarrier intervals may be different, and the value range may be predefined; for example, Example 1 and Example 2.
[0161]
Example 1:
[0162]
[table 0004]
SCS The value range of the second offset value
15kHz {16us,25us,34us,43us,52us,61us,1symbol}
30kHz {16us,25us,34us,43us,52us,61us,2symbols}
60kHz {16us,25us,34us,43us,52us,61us,4symbols}
[0163]
Example 2:
[0164]
[table 0005]
SCS The value range of the second offset value
15kHz {16us,25us,34us,43us,52us,61us,1symbol}
30kHz {16us,25us,1symbol}
[0165]
For another example, if the second offset value or the second offset value set is indicated by the fourth indication information, in order to save signaling overhead, the fourth indication information may be based on the correspondence between the subcarrier interval and the range of the second offset value. relationship to indicate a second offset value or a second set of offset values. After receiving the fourth indication information, the UE may determine the second offset value or the second offset value set indicated by the fourth indication information according to the subcarrier interval of the first time-frequency resource. For example Example 3 and Example 4.
[0166]
Example 3:
[0167]

[0168]
According to Example 3, if the information bits included in the fourth indication information received by the UE are 110, then if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15 kHz, the second offset value is 1symbol. The subcarrier spacing is 30kHz, and the second offset value is 2symbol.
[0169]
Example 4:
[0170]

[0171]
According to Example 4, if the information bit included in the fourth indication information received by the UE is 010, then if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15kHz, the second offset value is 34us, if the first time-frequency resource The subcarrier spacing is 30kHz, and the second offset value is 1symbol.
[0172]
In some embodiments, at least two types of subcarrier spacings correspond to different sets of first offset values, and/or at least two types of subcarrier spacings correspond to different sets of second offset values.
[0173]
Take the second offset value set as an example. For example Example 5 and Example 6.
[0174]
Example 5:
[0175]

[0176]
According to Example 5, if the information bit included in the fourth indication information received by the UE is 1110001, and if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15 kHz, the set of second offset values ​​is {16us, 25us, 34us , 1symbol}, if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 30 kHz, the set of second offset values ​​is {16us, 25us, 34us, 2symbol}.
[0177]
Example 6:
[0178]

[0179]
According to Example 6, if the information bits included in the fourth indication information received by the UE are 1110001, and if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15 kHz, the set of second offset values ​​is {16us, 25us, 34us , 1symbol}, if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 30 kHz, the set of second offset values ​​is {16us, 25us, 34us}.
[0180]
In some embodiments, the reference subcarrier spacing corresponds to a first offset value, or the reference subcarrier spacing corresponds to the set of first offset values; and/or; the reference subcarrier spacing corresponds to The second offset value, alternatively, the reference subcarrier spacing corresponds to the set of second offset values.
[0181]
Take the second offset value as an example. The fourth indication information indicates the first offset value or the first offset value set based on a reference subcarrier interval, and the reference subcarrier interval may be predefined or indicated by the base station. The UE determines the second offset value or the second offset value set according to the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource. For example Example 7 and Example 8.
[0182]
Example 7:
[0183]

[0184]
According to Example 7, if the information bits included in the fourth indication information received by the UE are 110, then if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15 kHz, the second offset value is 1symbol, and if the The subcarrier spacing is 30kHz, and the second offset value is 2symbol.
[0185]
Example 8:
[0186]

[0187]
According to Example 8, if the information bits included in the fourth indication information received by the UE are 1110001, then if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15 kHz, the set of second offset values ​​is {16us, 25us, 34us, 1symbol}, if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 30 kHz, the set of second offset values ​​is {16us, 25us, 34us, 2symbol}.
[0188]
The influence of the subcarrier spacing on the starting position has been schematically described above, and the generation of the uplink signal will be described below.
[0189]
In some embodiments, the terminal device generates the uplink signal according to the subcarrier interval of the first time-frequency resource and/or the adopted channel access mode.
[0190]
For example, suppose that 1 represents the symbol index in a subframe, which is the number of symbols in a subframe, where is the number of symbols in one slot, and is the number of slots in one subframe corresponding to one subcarrier interval. E.g,
[0191]
Table 4
[0192]

[0193]
and are the symbol length and CP length corresponding to symbol l respectively, taking NCP as an example,
[0194]

[0195]

[0196]
In some embodiments, the terminal device determines, according to the subcarrier spacing of the one or more time-frequency resources, the first symbol capable of transmitting the uplink signal in the one or more time-frequency resources and the first symbol of the uplink signal. The starting position of the portion of a symbol that can transmit the upstream signal.
[0197]
For example, the first offset value and the second offset value may be represented by the number of symbols and/or the time length. If the first offset value or the second offset value is represented by the time length, the UE may The SCS determines the first starting position or the second starting position, or, in other words, determines the first symbol that can be sent in the first time-frequency resource and the length that can be sent in the first symbol (and/or the first symbol starting position of the part of the symbol that can be sent).
[0198]
Assuming that the symbol l 0 is the first symbol of the first time-frequency resource, the first offset value or the second offset value is represented by the time length, expressed as t offset , then the first time-frequency resource that can be sent in the first time-frequency resource The starting position of the symbol l start and the part that can be sent in the symbol l start (represented as an offset value relative to the starting position of the first symbol l start ) is, for example,
[0199]

[0200]

[0201]
where, represents the reference symbol length corresponding to the SCS of the first time-frequency resource, for example,
[0202]

[0203]
On the other hand, if the first offset value or the second offset value is indicated based on a reference SCS, and the first offset value is represented by the number of symbols, or the number of symbols and the time length, the UE needs to use the reference subcarrier spacing and Determining the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource l start and/or
[0204]
Assuming that the reference subcarrier spacing is μ 0 , for example, the first offset value or the second offset value is represented by the number of symbols, N offset , then
[0205]

[0206]

[0207]
For another example, the first offset value or the second offset value is characterized by the number of symbols and the time length N offset +t offset , then
[0208]

[0209]

[0210]
According to the signal corresponding to the symbol l start , for example,
[0211]

[0212]
or,
[0213]

[0214]
Wherein, whether to adopt the first offset value or the second offset value is as described above.
[0215]
The resource mapping is described below by taking the CG PUSCH as an example.
[0216]
In some embodiments, the terminal device maps the first uplink information according to at least one or any combination of the following information: the subcarrier spacing of the one or more time-frequency resources, the adopted channel access mode, and the indication for mapping Indication information of the symbol position of the first uplink information. The terminal device may map the first uplink information to one or more complete symbols in the time-frequency resource, and the complete symbols can use the entire time for transmitting the uplink signal.
[0217]
For example, if the first uplink transmission is CG PUSCH, the first uplink transmission may need to carry UCI (eg CG-UCI), and the UCI (first uplink information) can be used to indicate the HARQ (process) ID corresponding to the uplink transmission, NDI , RV, etc., are crucial for the base station to correctly receive the uplink transmission; the present application is not limited thereto. For another example, the first uplink information may also be other UCI, for example, carrying at least one of the following: SR, HARQ-ACK, CSI, and so on.
[0218]
On the one hand, as described above, in order to ensure an appropriate time interval between the first uplink transmission and the last transmission, the first part of the symbols in the first time-frequency resource may not transmit signals or may not transmit signals completely. On the other hand, if the next transmission of the first uplink transmission can continue to share the same COT transmission, in order to ensure an appropriate time interval between the first uplink transmission and the next transmission, the latter part of the symbols in the first time-frequency resource It may also not be sent or not sent in its entirety. In order to enable the base station to receive the UCI correctly, it is necessary to avoid mapping the above-mentioned UCI to a symbol that cannot be sent or cannot be completely sent in the first time-frequency resource.
[0219]
FIG. 10 is an example diagram of a first time-frequency resource according to an embodiment of the present application. For example, as shown in FIG. 10 , it is assumed that the first symbol of the first time-frequency resource is 0 and the last symbol is 8, wherein the first N1=2 symbols and the last N2=2 symbols do not transmit signals or transmit signals incompletely , UCI can be mapped on symbol 2 to symbol 6.
[0220]
In some embodiments, for at least two subcarrier spacings and/or at least two channel access modes, the positions of symbols to which the first uplink information is mapped in the time-frequency resources are at least partially different.
[0221]
For example, since the lengths of symbols corresponding to different SCSs are different, the number of symbols corresponding to different SCSs that do not transmit signals or cannot completely transmit signals may be different. Therefore, the symbol positions that can be used to map UCI may be different for different SCSs.
[0222]
In some embodiments, the symbol position in the time-frequency resource to which the first uplink information is mapped is predefined or preconfigured or indicated by a network device.
[0223]
For example, the symbol positions in the first time-frequency resource that can be used for mapping UCI may be predefined or preconfigured or indicated by the base station, or the symbol positions in the first time-frequency resource that cannot be used for mapping UCI may be predefined or pre-configured or indicated by the base station.
[0224]
For example, for different SCSs, the symbol positions that can be used to map UCI can be predefined or preconfigured respectively. Specifically, the number of symbols that cannot be used for mapping UCI is predefined for different SCSs, for example, as shown in Table 5 below.
[0225]
table 5
[0226]
[table 0006]
SCS N1 N2
15kHz 1 1
30kHz 2 2
[0227]
For another example, if the value ranges of the first/second offset values ​​corresponding to different SCSs are predefined or preconfigured respectively, the number of symbols that cannot be used for mapping UCI may be different from the predefined first/second offset values. The value range corresponds to. For example, if the subcarrier spacing is 15 kHz, the value range of the first offset value is predefined as {16us, 25us, 34us, 43us, 52us, 61us, 1symbol}, and if the subcarrier spacing is 30 kHz, the first offset value is The value range is predefined as {16us, 25us, 34us, 43us, 52us, 61us, 2symbol}, then for 15kHz, the first 1 symbol is not used for mapping UCI, and for 30kHz, the first 2 symbols are not used for mapping UCI.
[0228]
For another example, the value range of the first/second offset value is predefined or preconfigured based on a reference subcarrier spacing, for example, the reference subcarrier spacing is 15 kHz, and the value range of the first offset value is predefined as { 16us, 25us, 34us, 43us, 52us, 61us, 1symbol}, then for 15kHz, the first 1 symbol is not used for mapping UCI, and for 30kHz, the first 2 symbols are not used for mapping UCI.
[0229]
In this way, the UE can map the UCI on the symbol that can be used for mapping the UCI in the first time-frequency resource according to the subcarrier interval of the first time-frequency resource.
[0230]
For the case of direct indication by the base station, for different SCSs, the symbol positions that can be used to map the UCI can be indicated respectively. For example, the values ​​of the above N1 and/or N2 are indicated. Alternatively, the symbol positions that can be used to map the UCI are indicated based on a reference subcarrier spacing.
[0231]
For the case of indirect indication by the base station, the base station may indirectly indicate the symbol positions that can be used for mapping the UCI by indicating the first/second offset value set. The relationship between the indicated set of first/second offset values ​​and the symbol positions that can be used to map UCI and the range of the above-defined first/second offset values ​​and the symbol positions that can be used to map UCI The relationship is similar.
[0232]
Alternatively, the base station may indirectly indicate the symbol positions that can be used to map the UCI by indicating the first/second offset value. For example, if the indicated first offset value is 43us, if the subcarrier spacing of the first time-frequency resource is 15kHz, the first 1 symbol is not used for mapping UCI, and if the subcarrier spacing is 30kHz, the first 2 symbols are not used for mapping UCI. (Similar to the method in signal generation, the first completely transmitted symbol in the first time-frequency resource can be determined.
[0233]
In some embodiments, as mentioned above, class 1 and class 2 have different requirements on the time interval between adjacent transmissions, and class 1 and class 2 may also correspond to different symbol positions that can be used to map UCI. In addition, different channel access modes in class 1 may have different requirements on the time interval between adjacent transmissions. Therefore, the symbol positions that can be used to map UCI corresponding to different channel access modes may be different.
[0234]
For example, the symbol position corresponding to the first channel access mode that can be used to map the UCI, for example, is determined according to the predefined first offset value range or the indicated first offset value or the first offset value set . The symbol position that can be used to map the UCI corresponding to the second channel access mode is determined according to, for example, a predefined second offset value range or an indicated second offset value or a second offset value set.
[0235]
In this case, the UE may need to determine a symbol position in the first time-frequency resource that can be used to map the UCI according to the channel access mode adopted for the first uplink transmission. For example, if the second channel access mode is adopted, the symbol position in the first time-frequency resource that can be used to map UCI is the symbol position corresponding to the second channel access mode that can be used to map UCI. If the second indication information indicates that the first channel access mode is used, the symbol position in the first time-frequency resource that can be used to map UCI is the symbol position corresponding to the first channel access mode that can be used to map UCI.
[0236]
For another example, since the UE needs to receive the second indication information, the UCI is further mapped to an appropriate symbol position. In order for the UE to have enough time to prepare the PUSCH, the physical layer signaling for sending the corresponding first indication information should be sent before a certain time length of the first time-frequency resource.
[0237]
That is, for the UE, the UE receives the physical layer signaling before the first time position, and there is a certain time interval between the first time position and the start position of the first symbol of the first time-frequency resource. The time interval should not be less than the time required by the UE to prepare the PUSCH. If the UE does not receive the physical layer signaling, it maps the UCI according to the symbol position corresponding to the second channel access mode that can be used to map the UCI; if it receives the physical layer signaling, it maps the UCI according to the first channel access mode. The symbol positions that can be used to map UCI are mapped to UCI.
[0238]
In some embodiments, the uplink signal further carries second uplink information, where the second uplink information is used to indicate an end position of the uplink signal.
[0239]
In some embodiments, for at least two subcarrier intervals, the end positions of the uplink signals indicated by the second uplink information are different.
[0240]
For example, in order to enable the base station to use COT sharing to send downlink transmission after the first uplink transmission, the UCI may further include indication information for indicating the end position of the first uplink transmission. In order to save signaling overhead, the same indication information may indicate different end positions for different SCSs. For example, as shown in Table 6 below,
[0241]
Table 6
[0242]

[0243]
Correspondingly, after receiving the UCI, the base station needs to determine the end position of the first uplink transmission according to the subcarrier interval of the first time-frequency resource.
[0244]

For example, each of the above-described embodiments may be used alone, or one or more of the above-described embodiments may be combined.
[0245]
It can be seen from the above embodiment that the first starting position in the time domain range of one or more time-frequency resources of semi-static configuration or semi-persistent scheduling is indicated by physical layer signaling, and the uplink signal is sent using the first starting position, which can support Transmission and reception of CG-based uplink signals that meet NR-U requirements, or transmission and reception of other uplink signals on semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resources.
[0246]
Embodiments of the Second Aspect
[0247]
An embodiment of the present application provides a method for sending an uplink signal, which is described from the side of a terminal device. The embodiments of the present application may be combined with the embodiments of the first aspect, or may be implemented independently, and the same content as the embodiments of the first aspect will not be repeated.
[0248]
FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of a method for sending an uplink signal according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 11 , the method includes:
[0249]
1101, the terminal device generates an uplink signal,
[0250]
1102: The terminal device sends the uplink signal on a semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resource without receiving the corresponding dynamic indication information for indicating the uplink and downlink configuration, and the time-frequency resource Include at least one symbol that is predefined or semi-statically configured to be flexible.
[0251]
It should be noted that the above FIG. 11 only schematically illustrates the embodiment of the present application, but the present application is not limited thereto. For example, the execution order of the various operations can be adjusted appropriately, and other operations can be added or some of the operations can be reduced. Those skilled in the art can make appropriate modifications according to the above content, and are not limited to the description of the above-mentioned FIG. 11 .
[0252]
Compared with LTE, NR supports more flexible uplink and downlink configurations. The uplink and downlink configuration may be semi-statically configured and/or dynamically configured. Among them, the dynamic configuration is indicated by DCI format 2-0. In NR, the UE needs to determine whether the uplink transmission can be sent in a semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resource according to the uplink and downlink configuration.
[0253]
For example, if the base station configures the UE to monitor the PDCCH to receive DCI format 2_0, for a semi-static configuration or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resource that includes at least one symbol semi-statically configured as Flexible, if the UE does not receive DCI format 2_0 indicating that the If the symbol is uplink, the UE cannot send uplink transmission on this time-frequency resource. This is mainly to avoid interference with other devices.
[0254]
The UE does not receive DCI format 2_0 indicating that the symbol is uplink, which can be divided into two types: the corresponding DCI format 2_0 is not received; the corresponding DCI format 2_0 is received, but the symbol is not indicated as uplink, for example, the symbol is indicated as D/F, or no configuration is indicated for this symbol.
[0255]
FIG. 12 is an example diagram of the uplink and downlink configuration of NR. As shown in FIG. 12 , for example, the cell-common uplink and downlink configuration information (tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon) and/or the device-specific uplink and downlink configuration information (tdd-UL- DL-ConfigurationDedicated), resources can be configured as uplink (UL), downlink (DL) or flexible (F), and then through dynamic signaling (DCI format 2_0), flexible (F) can be further configured as uplink (UL) or Downlink (DL).
[0256]
As shown in Figure 12, if the first 5 time units (which are semi-statically configured as DDFFF) do not receive the corresponding dynamic signaling (DCI format 2_0) ( represented ), the uplink transmission configured by the higher layer signaling cannot be Send on F. The last 5 time units (configured as FFFUU semi-statically) have received the corresponding dynamic signaling (DCI format 2_0) (represented by □ in Figure 12), and are further configured as DDUUU, then the uplink transmission configured by high-level signaling to be sent on U.
[0257]
In the unlicensed frequency band, flexible uplink and downlink configuration can make the base station and UE have more channel access opportunities, so the base station may only use dynamic configuration, or semi-statically configure more flexible symbols, which leads to all or Most semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resources include Flexible symbols.
[0258]
However, the base station may not be able to send the PDCCH carrying the DCI format 2_0 due to channel access failure, and the UE will not be able to receive the DCI format 2_0. According to the solution in the NR, the UE will not be able to send the above uplink transmission. That is to say, whether the UE can send uplink transmission not based on dynamic scheduling is still limited by the dynamic indication of the base station, which causes the efficiency of uplink transmission to decrease and the delay may increase.
[0259]
In the embodiments of the present application, for example, considering that channel detection can avoid interference to other devices to a certain extent, in order to improve the efficiency of uplink transmission and reduce the delay. The UE can be allowed to include the semi-static configuration as Flexible without receiving the corresponding dynamic indication information for indicating the uplink and downlink configuration (for example, it can be DCI format 2_0, or another newly defined DCI format). The semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resources of symbols are sent for uplink transmission.
[0260]
FIG. 13 is an example diagram of the uplink and downlink configuration of the embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 13 , for example, in the case where the corresponding DCI format 2_0 is not received ( represented ), it is pre-defined or semi-static On the time unit configured as flexible (F), the UE can send uplink signals.
[0261]
It is worth noting that Figures 12 and 13 are only schematic illustrations, and the time units corresponding to UL, DL, and F in Figure 12 or Figure 13 may be several time slots, multiple symbols, or other time lengths , which does not strictly correspond to a time slot.
[0262]
In addition, semi-static configuration information such as tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon and/or device-specific uplink and downlink configuration information (tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated, and dynamic signaling DCI format 2_0 in Figures 12 and 13 are only implemented in this application. For example, but the present application is not limited to this, it may also be other semi-static configuration information and/or dynamic signaling, or newly defined semi-static configuration information and/or dynamic signaling.
[0263]

The above uplink signal is predefined or preconfigured or indicated by the network device (for example, configured by higher layer signaling).
[0264]
In some embodiments, whether to allow the terminal device to send the data on one or more symbols that are predefined or semi-statically configured to be flexible without receiving the corresponding dynamic indication information for indicating the uplink and downlink configuration. The uplink signal is predefined or preconfigured for the type of the uplink signal, or indicated by the network device (for example, configured by high-layer signaling).
[0265]
If the terminal device is allowed to send uplink signals on one or more symbols that are predefined or semi-statically configured as flexible, assuming that the first time-frequency resource includes symbols semi-statically configured as Flexible, in the case that DCI format 2_0 is not received , the UE may send the first uplink transmission on the first time-frequency resource. For example, the uplink transmission is sent from the second starting position on the first time-frequency resource using the second channel access mode. For another example, the UE may perform uplink transmission on the first time-frequency resource according to the embodiment of the first aspect.
[0266]
Alternatively, it is assumed that the first DCI includes at least second indication information, and the second DCI at least includes indication information for dynamically indicating uplink and downlink configurations. If the UE receives the first DCI and does not receive the second DCI indicating that the Flexible symbol is uplink, the UE may perform uplink transmission on the first time-frequency resource according to the embodiment of the first aspect.
[0267]
The above embodiments merely illustrate the embodiments of the present application, but the present application is not limited thereto, and appropriate modifications can also be made on the basis of the above embodiments. For example, each of the above-described embodiments may be used alone, or one or more of the above-described embodiments may be combined.
[0268]
It can be seen from the above embodiments that the terminal device can send uplink signals on the semi-statically configured or semi-persistently scheduled time-frequency resources without receiving the corresponding dynamic indication information for indicating the uplink and downlink configuration, the time-frequency The resource includes at least one symbol that is pre-defined or semi-statically configured to be flexible, thereby being able to support the transmission and reception of CG-based uplink signals that meet NR-U requirements, or other time-frequency in semi-statically configured or semi-persistent scheduling Transmission and reception of uplink signals on resources.
