FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a communication system according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the communication system may include a network side device 20 and at least one terminal device, such as terminal devices 10-17. As shown in FIG. 1, the network side device 20 is configured to provide communication services for at least one of the terminal devices 10 to 17 and access the core network. Any one of the terminal device 10 to the terminal device 17 and the network side device 20 may include at least one antenna, and FIG. 1 is described by taking multiple antennas as an example. Here, the communication between the terminal device 10 and the network side device 20 will be described as an example.

In the communication system, the network side device 20 can send the DCI to the terminal device 10 through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and the DCI can schedule the terminal device 10 to be a physical downlink shared channel (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, The downlink data is received on the PDSCH, and the terminal device 10 may be scheduled to transmit uplink data on a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH). For example, the network side device 20 schedules the terminal device 10 to receive the downlink data, and the network device 20 first sends the DCI for the downlink scheduling. After receiving the DCI, the terminal device 10 receives the downlink data by using the time and frequency resources indicated by the DCI. And then performing demodulation and decoding, and then feeding the Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) to the network side device 20 on the physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) or the PUSCH, and the network side After receiving the HARQ-ACK sent by the terminal device 10, the device 20 can determine whether the next scheduling is to resend data that is not correctly received or to transmit new data.

In addition to scheduling the terminal device, the DCI can also be used to request the terminal device to send a channel quality indication, perform power control through Transmit Power Control (TPC) signaling, and transmit HARQ. As shown in Table 1, taking the LTE system as an example, DCI can be divided into different formats depending on the application.

Table 1 LTE DCI format

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the DCI may be divided into two levels, for example, a first level DCI and a second level DCI.

Optionally, each DCI in the first level DCI corresponds to multiple DCIs in the second level DCI; each DCI in the plurality of DCIs in the second level DCI is combined with the DCI The corresponding DCI in the first-level DCI is used to perform scheduling on the terminal device once.

It should be understood that the first level and the second level in the first level DCI and the second level DCI mentioned in the embodiments of the present application are only for distinguishing between two types of DCI, and the network side device may combine one type of DCI and Another type of DCI schedules the terminal device.

Optionally, the first level DCI may include slower scheduling information, and the second level DCI may include faster conversion scheduling information. Certainly, the DCI including the scheduling information with slower conversion may also be referred to as the second-level DCI, and the DCI including the faster-changing scheduling information may be referred to as the first-level DCI, but for convenience of description, the embodiment of the present application will include The DCI that transforms the slower scheduling information is referred to as a first-level DCI and the DCI including the faster-changing scheduling information is referred to as a second-level DCI.

For example, the first-level DCI may include an uplink/downlink scheduling identifier, a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) reference, and a power control command indicating a DCI format, and the second-level DCI may include a HARQ process identifier, resource allocation, PDSCH rate matching indication, precoding information, antenna port information, new data indication, for HARQ and retransmission indication, additional MCS information, uplink reference signal related information, and the like.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, one subframe may be used as a basic time scheduling unit, where the time scheduling unit may be referred to as a Transmission Time Interval (TTI). The length of one subframe can be 1 millisecond, and each subframe can be further divided into two slots. Each slot includes seven orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, that is, one sub-frame. The frame contains 14 OFDM symbol.

Optionally, in the downlink transmission process, the first 1 to 4 OFDM symbols of one subframe may be set as a control region, and the network side device sends DCI in the control region to perform uplink or downlink scheduling. Generally, the network side device can receive the PDSCH or transmit the PUSCH through the DCI scheduling terminal device, and can follow a preset timing relationship. In the downlink process, the DCI and its scheduled PDSCH are all in the same subframe, the DCI is located in the control region, the PDSCH data transmission is located in the data region after the control region, and the uplink PUSCH transmission is not in the same subframe as the DCI, and The timing relationship between the DCI and the uplink data transmission is n+k, where n represents the subframe number of the subframe in which the current DCI is located, and k represents the subframe offset between the DCI and the scheduled uplink data.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2, it is assumed that the value of k is 4, the terminal device receives the downlink scheduling DCI sent by the network side device and the PDSCH scheduled by the network side device in subframe 0, and the terminal device is in the subframe according to a preset timing relationship. 4, according to the receiving situation of the PDSCH, if the terminal device does not correctly receive the PDSCH, it will feed back the non-acknowledgment (NACK) information to the network side device. After receiving the NACK, the network side device will be in the subframe 8. The PDSCH sent by the subframe 0 is retransmitted. At this time, the delay of the overall system is 8 subframes, that is, 8 ms.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the delay may be reduced by shortening the TTI, that is, the number of OFDM symbols in each TTI is reduced. Such a TTI may be referred to as a short TTI (ShTTI).

Specifically, the length of one TTI may be determined as one OFDM symbol, and the sTTI at this time may be referred to as a symbol level TTI. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of feedback delay using symbol level TTI (ie, one TTI includes one OFDM symbol). As shown in FIG. 3, the network side device may send downlink control information to the terminal device on the 0th symbol, and send downlink data to the terminal device on the first symbol.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, even if the length of the TTI is less than one subframe, the frame structure itself may remain unchanged. For example, the length of one subframe may still be 1 millisecond, and each subframe may be further divided into two. Each time slot, each time slot contains 7 OFDM.

As shown in FIG. 3, each OFDM symbol is only 1/14 ms, and the Round-Trip Time (RTT) is 8 OFDM symbols (about 600 ms), which can meet the low delay target with a delay of less than 1 ms. A TTI can occupy 2 to 7 symbols in addition to one symbol. In sTTI, the downlink data channel scheduled by DCI is called sPDSCH, the uplink data channel is called sPUSCH, and the uplink control channel is called sPUCCH.

Although sTT for data transmission can shorten the system delay, it increases the overhead of control signaling. For example, when the control information occupies one OFDM symbol, when a TTI occupies 14 OFDM symbols, the ratio of control information to data is 1:13, and when one TTI occupies 1 OFDM symbol, the ratio of control information to data is used. When 1:1, when a TTI occupies 7 OFDM symbols, the ratio of control information to data is 1:6. In contrast, the control signaling overhead of sTTI is large.

At this time, the overhead of the control information can be reduced by introducing the first level DCI and the second level DCI. For example, some scheduling information may not change in the three sTTIs, and the DCIs belonging to the first-level DCI may be transmitted in the first sTTI, and the DCIs belonging to the second-level DCI may be sent in the second and third sTTIs. Since the DCI belonging to the first-level DCI already contains the scheduling information with slower change, the DCI belonging to the second-level DCI can complete the scheduling only by sending a small amount of scheduling information, thereby reducing the overhead of the control information.

As shown in FIG. 4, the terminal device receives the DCI1 belonging to the first-level DCI sent by the network side device on the first sTTI, and the terminal device receives the DCI11 belonging to the second-level DCI. The PDSCH is received in conjunction with the scheduling information of the DCI1, and when receiving the DCI12 belonging to the second-level DCI, the PDSCH is received in conjunction with the scheduling information of the DCI1, and the processing manner of receiving the DCI13 and the DCI14, and the processing manner of receiving the DCI11 and the DCI12 are received. Similarly, until the terminal device receives the DCI2 belonging to the first-level DCI again at the ninth time interval, and after receiving the DCI21, DCI22 or DCI23 belonging to the second-level DCI, the terminal device receives the PDSCH in conjunction with the scheduling information of the DCI2.

However, it should be understood that the first-level DCI and the second-level DCI mentioned in the embodiments of the present application can be applied to a communication system using sTTI, and can also be applied to a communication system using non-sTTI, for example, the length of the TTI. Is one subframe, or greater than one subframe.

Since the DCI belonging to the first-level DCI and the DCI belonging to the second-level DCI both include scheduling information required for the terminal device to receive the PDSCH, the terminal device needs to be able to correctly receive the DCI belonging to the first-level DCI and perform the joint-to-terminal device. The scheduled DCI belonging to the second level DCI. As shown in FIG. 4, if the terminal device does not receive the DCI2 or DCI2 receiving error but correctly receives the DCI 21, it may obtain the wrong scheduling information, which may cause an error in data transmission.

Therefore, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for transmitting downlink control information, which is used to solve the above problem.

Optionally, the first DCI mentioned in the embodiment of the present application may belong to the first level DCI, and the second DCI may belong to the second level DCI.

It should be understood that the embodiment of the present application is not only applicable to the foregoing scenario. For example, the first DCI and the second DCI mentioned in the embodiments of the present application may all belong to the first-level DCI, or belong to the second-level DCI, as long as the network It is within the protection scope of the embodiments of the present application to perform the joint scheduling of the terminal device by using the at least two or at least two types of DCI.

It should be understood that the first DCI and the second DCI are used as an example for the description of the present application. It does not mean that when the network side device schedules the terminal device, only two or two types of DCI are jointly used. The first DCI and the first DCI mentioned herein. The second DCI may be any two or two of a plurality of types or types of DCIs used in combination. For example, assuming that there are three levels of DCI, that is, one-level DCI, two-level DCI, and three-level DCI, the terminal device can perform correct data transmission after correctly acquiring the combined three-level DCI.

It should be understood that, in the embodiments of the present application, the embodiments described below in conjunction with the drawings may be used in combination, and in particular, in order to avoid redundancy, the description of one embodiment may be applied to another embodiment.

For example, the implementation of the masking operation may be referred to each other. Specifically, the specific implementation of the masking operation in the embodiment of the present application may be an exclusive OR operation, for example, the masking mask is XORed with the masked object. operating.

For another example, the manner in which the CRC is generated or the manner in which the masking sequence is generated may be referred to each other between the embodiments.

FIG. 5 is a schematic flowchart of a method 100 for transmitting downlink control information according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 100 is optionally performed by a network side device.

In 101, the network side device determines the first check information according to at least part of the information in the first DCI.

Specifically, the network side device may determine, according to at least part of the information in the first DCI, a CRC of the first DCI; and the network side device performs a masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI to obtain the first verification information.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, after determining the CRC of the first DCI, the network side device may perform a mask operation on the CRC of the first DCI by using the identifier information of the terminal device to obtain the first check information.

For example, in the LTE system, the network side device may perform a masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI by using a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) of the terminal device.

Optionally, the network side device may perform a bitwise XOR operation on the sequence of the identifier information carrying the terminal device and the sequence of the CRC carrying the first DCI, so as to implement the identifier information of the terminal device for the first DCI. The CRC performs a masking operation.

It should be understood that the embodiment of the present application only uses the RNTI as the identification information of the terminal device as an example, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and other information capable of identifying the terminal device may be used as the identification information of the terminal device.

It should be understood that the embodiment of the present application is only described by using a bitwise XOR operation to implement the masking operation. However, the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and the masking operation may be implemented by other means.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, obtaining the CRC by using at least part of the information in the first DCI may be implemented by performing a polynomial operation on the information.

For example, suppose that all or part of the information of the DCI represents input bits a ₀ , a ₁ , a ₂ , a ₃ , ..., a _A-1 , and the bits of the CRC are p ₀ , p ₁ , p ₂ , p ₃ , ..., p _L-1 , where A is the size of the input sequence, L is the number of bits included in the CRC, and the CRC is generated by the following cyclic generation polynomial:

-g _CRC24A (D)=[D ²⁴ +D ²³ +D ¹⁸ +D ¹⁷ +D ¹⁴ +D ¹¹ +D ¹⁰ +D ⁷ +D ⁶ +D ⁵ +D ⁴ +D ³ +D+1];

- g _CRC24B (D)=[D ²⁴ +D ²³ +D ⁶ +D ⁵ +D+1] for CRC length L=24;

- g _CRC16 (D)=[D ¹⁶ +D ¹² +D ⁵ +1]for for CRC length L=16;

- g _CRC8 (D)=[D ⁸ +D ⁷ +D ⁴ +D ³ +D+1] for CRC length L=8.

The coding is implemented in a systematic form, which means that in the GF(2) domain (Galova domain), when the corresponding CRC generation polynomial g _CRC24A (D) or g _CRC24B (D) is divided by 24, the polynomial a ₀ D ^A+23 +a ₁ D ^A+22 +...+a _A-1 D ²⁴ +p ₀ D ²³ +p ₁ D ²² +...+p ₂₂ D ¹ +p ₂₃ produces a value equal to 0 Remainder; and, when divided by g _CRC16 (D), the polynomial a ₀ D ^A+15 + a ₁ D ^A+14 +...+a _A-1 D ¹⁶ +p ₀ D ¹⁵ +p ₁ D ¹⁴ +...+p ₁₄ D ¹ +p ₁₅ produces a remainder equal to 0; and, when divided by g _CRC8 (D), the polynomial a ₀ D ^A+7 +a ₁ D ^A+6 +...+ a _A-1 D ⁸ +p ₀ D ⁷ +p ₁ D ⁶ +...+p ₆ D ¹ +p ₇ produces a remainder equal to zero.

In 102, the network side device sends the first DCI and the first check information to the terminal device.

Optionally, the network side device may be configured to send the first to-be-sent information before the first DCI is arranged in the first verification information, and the network-side device may send the first to-be-sent information to the terminal device by using a preset physical channel. .

It should be understood that the foregoing first DCI is configured to generate the first to-be-sent information before the first verification information, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and the first DCI and the first verification information may also be used. The first to-be-sent information is generated by using other arrangements, for example, the first DCI may be arranged after the first verification information to generate the first to-be-sent information.

Optionally, in order to improve data transmission efficiency and reduce error rate, the first to-be-transmitted information may be channel-coded.

Optionally, the network side device may also match the capacity of the physical channel by rate matching.

In 103, the network side device determines, according to at least part of the information in the first DCI and at least part of the information of the second DCI, where the first DCI is used in conjunction with the second DCI to perform the terminal device. Scheduling.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first DCI belongs to a first level DCI, and the second DCI belongs to a second level DCI.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first DCI may include scheduling information that is changed slowly, and the second DCI may include scheduling information that is rapidly changing, that is, the scheduling period of the first DCI is longer than the scheduling of the second DCI. information. After receiving the second DCI, the terminal device may schedule the terminal device by combining the previously received first DCI.

For example, the first DCI received by the terminal device includes an MCS reference value indicating a basis of a subset of the entire modulation and coding mode table, and then the second DCI received by the terminal device includes an MCS adjustment value, and the adjustment is performed. The value indicates that the MCS reference value is adjusted. If the MCS reference value is "4" and the MCS adjustment value is "+1", it can be said that the specifically used MCS is after adding 1 to the MCS reference value. Corresponding MCS.

For another example, the first DCI includes a channel power reference value, and the second DCI includes an adjustment value for adjusting the channel power reference. If the channel power reference is “25 dB” and the adjustment value is “+10 dB”, Indicates an increase of 10 dB on the channel power reference.

For another example, the first DCI includes a set of time-frequency resources, and the second DCI indicates one or several time-frequency resources in the time-frequency resource set.

It should be understood that the relationship between the first DCI and the second DCI is described by using the MCS information, the power information, and the time-frequency resource information as an example, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

In the process of the first DCI transmission, if the terminal device does not receive the first DCI or the first DCI reception error but correctly receives the second DCI, it is possible to obtain the wrong scheduling information.

For example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the network side device sends DCI1, the channel condition is good. At this time, DCI1 will schedule a larger transmission data block in the MCS subset; and when the network side device transmits DCI2, the channel condition may encounter the cell. The inter-burst interference becomes worse. At this time, DCI2 will schedule smaller transmission data blocks in the MCS subset. Then, the network side device sends the DCI 21 to the terminal device, where the additional MCS information indicates the MCS specifically used by the network side device in the DCI 2.

When DCI2 is not received and DCI21 is correctly received, the terminal device combines DCI1 with power consumption to receive and demodulate the erroneous information. At this time, MCS obtained according to the additional MCS of DCI21 due to the wrong MCS subset used. It is also wrong. At this time, the terminal device cannot correctly receive the PDSCH and feed back the NACK to the network side device.

Since the terminal device does not know that DCI2 is not correctly received, the demodulated error soft judgment value may enter the decoder buffer, and the subsequent retransmission information will be combined with the soft judgment value, so it will further Affects the subsequent decoding process.

After receiving the NACK sent by the terminal device, the network side device may schedule adaptive retransmission and retransmit the DCI 21. Since the DCI2 is not correctly received, the DCI that belongs to the second-level DCI will not be correctly scheduled. The PDSCH is received until the network side device transmits other DCIs belonging to the first level DCI.

In addition, in the process of uplink scheduling, after detecting and receiving the uplink grant in the DCI 21, the terminal device sends the uplink service with the assumption of DCI1, and the terminal device may perform uplink transmission on the resource that is not allocated to itself. Causes interference to other terminal devices.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device determines the second verification information according to at least part of the information in the first DCI and at least part of the information in the second DCI, so that the terminal device receives the second DCI and After the second verification information, the first DCI that needs to be jointly received is checked to be successful, and the data transmission error caused by the DCI belonging to the first-level DCI due to the second DCI joint error is avoided.

It should be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the sending time of the first DCI is earlier than the second DCI as an example, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and the first DCI and the second DCI may also pass different at the same time. The band is sent.

Optionally, the network side device may arrange at least part of the information in the first DCI and at least part of the second DCI according to a preset rule to obtain the first information. The network side device may be configured according to the first A message determining the first CRC.

For example, the network side device may arrange at least part of the information in the first DCI before at least part of the information in the first DCI to obtain the first information.

For another example, the network side device may arrange at least part of the information in the first DCI after at least part of the information in the second DCI to obtain the first information.

For another example, the network side device may further divide at least part of the information in the first DCI into two parts of information, and arrange at least part of the information in the second DCI between the two pieces of information to obtain the first information.

Optionally, the first information may be obtained by performing a polynomial operation on the first information. For the specific implementation, refer to the foregoing description. For brevity, details are not described herein again.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, at least part of the information in the first DCI may be transformed (for example, cyclically shifting a sequence corresponding to at least part of the information in the first DCI) and the second DCI Transforming at least part of the information (for example, cyclically shifting a sequence corresponding to at least part of the information in the second DCI), determining the first according to the transformed information of the first DCI and the transformed information of the second DCI CRC.

Of course, in the embodiment of the present application, at least part of the information in the first DCI may be transformed, and at least part of the information of the second DCI may not be transformed; or at least part of the information in the second DCI may be transformed. At least part of the information in the first DCI is not transformed.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, after determining the first CRC, the network side device may perform a masking operation on the first CRC by using the identifier information of the terminal device to obtain the second check information.

For example, the network side device may perform a masking operation on the first CRC by using the RNTI of the terminal device.

Optionally, the network side device may perform a bitwise XOR operation on the sequence of the identifier information that carries the terminal device and the sequence that carries the first CRC, so that the identifier information of the terminal device is used to perform the CRC of the first DCI. Add mask operation.

Mode B

In the mode B, the network side device may determine the second CRC according to the at least part of the information in the second DCI; the network side device may obtain the masking mask according to at least part of the information in the first DCI; The network side device may perform a masking operation on the second CRC according to the masking mask to obtain the second parity information.

Optionally, the second CRC may be obtained by performing a polynomial operation on at least part of the information in the second DCI. For the specific implementation, reference may be made to the foregoing description, and details are not described herein for brevity.

Optionally, the network side device may obtain a masking mask according to at least part of the information in the first DCI and the identifier information of the terminal device.

Optionally, the network side device may perform a bitwise XOR operation on the obtained masking mask and the second CRC to implement the masking operation on the second CRC.

The following two implementations of obtaining the first masking sequence are described, but it should be understood that the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

In an implementation manner, the network side device may intercept, as a first masking sequence, a sequence that is the same length as the second CRC from a sequence that carries at least part of the information in the first DCI.

For example, when the sequence length of the sequence carrying the second CRC is 16 bits, and the sequence length of the at least part of the information in the first DCI is greater than or equal to 16 bits, the network side device may be in the first DCI. A sequence of 16 bits of the sequence of at least part of the information is intercepted as the first masked sequence.

For example, when the sequence length of the sequence carrying the second CRC is 16 bits, and the sequence length of the at least part of the information in the first DCI is greater than or equal to 16 bits, the network side device may perform the first DCI. A sequence of at least part of the information is cyclically shifted and a 16-bit sequence thereof is intercepted as a first masked sequence.

For example, when the sequence length of the sequence carrying the second CRC is 16 bits, and the sequence length of the at least part of the information in the first DCI is less than 16 bits, the network side device may carry at least the first DCI. The sequence of partial information is repeated or zero-padded until the sequence length is greater than or equal to 16 bits, and the 16-bit sequence is intercepted as the first masking sequence.

In another implementation manner, the network side device may further transform at least part of the information in the first DCI by using a preset rule, to obtain a first masking sequence having the same length as the second CRC.

For example, when the sequence length of the sequence carrying the second CRC is 16 bits, the network side device maps a sequence carrying at least part of the information in the first DCI into a sequence of 16 bits in length by a hash algorithm.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the second masking sequence may be generated in a manner similar to generating the first masking sequence.

In an implementation manner, the network side device may intercept a sequence with the same length as the second CRC from at least part of the identifier information of the terminal device, as the second masking sequence.

In another implementation manner, the network side device may further convert at least part of the information in the identification information of the terminal device by using a preset rule, so as to obtain a second masking sequence having the same length as the second CRC.

It should be understood that the embodiment of the present application is only described by taking the masking mask by the cyclic shift and the hash mapping as an example. However, the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and at least part of the information in the first DCI may also be used by other methods. Processing is performed to obtain the masking mask.

It should be further understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device may further generate a masking mask according to at least part of the information in the first DCI, and perform a first masking operation on the second CRC according to the masking mask. And performing a second masking operation on the second CRC after the first masking operation according to the identifier information of the terminal device, to obtain the second parity information.

Optionally, a one-time masking operation or a second masking operation may be implemented by performing an exclusive-OR operation on the masking mask and the masked object.

In 104, the network side device sends the second DCI and the second check information to the terminal device.

Optionally, the network side device may arrange the second DCI before the second verification information to generate the second to-be-sent information. The network-side device may send the second to-be-sent information to the terminal device by using a preset physical channel. .

Optionally, in order to improve data transmission efficiency and reduce error rate, the network side device may perform channel coding on the second to-be-sent information.

Optionally, after the network side device sends the second DCI and the second verification information to the terminal device, if the feedback information of the terminal device is not received within a preset time, the network side device may send the terminal information to the terminal device. The device resends the first DCI and the first verification information.

It should be understood that, in the various embodiments of the present application, the size of the sequence numbers of the foregoing processes does not mean the order of execution sequence, and the order of execution of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not be applied to the embodiment of the present application. The implementation process constitutes any limitation. For example, the network side device may execute 101 and 103 first, and then execute 102 and 104.

It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish different objects, but do not limit the scope of the embodiments of the present application.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device determines, according to at least part of the information in the first DCI and at least part of the information in the second DCI, the second verification information, and sends the second DCI and the second school to the terminal device. The verification information is such that after receiving the second DCI and the second verification information, the terminal device needs to perform the verification by jointly receiving the first DCI to verify success, if the terminal device does not receive correctly or does not receive the first DCI, and using the wrong DCI, second DCI, and second parity information belonging to the first-level DCI for verification, a verification error occurs, thereby avoiding the first-level DCI due to the second DCI joint error. The data transmission error caused by DCI data transmission.

In addition, when the network-side device periodically sends the first-level DCI, the terminal device can know the sending time of the first-level DCI, and can solve the problem of missed detection or mis-detection of the first-level DCI to some extent, but the network is caused. The side device cannot flexibly schedule the terminal device.

For example, in a period of time, the network side device only needs to use a DCI belonging to the first-level DCI and a DCI scheduling terminal device belonging to the second-level DCI to receive a small amount of downlink data, but the time period spans multiple transmission periods. After the network side device needs to send multiple DCIs belonging to the first-level DCI, a DCI belonging to the second-level DCI occurs, which not only affects the flexibility of scheduling, but also increases the overhead of control signaling.

In the embodiment of the present application, the network side device can solve the problem of missed detection or misdetecting the first level DCI in a case where the first level DCI is sent aperiodically, and the scheduling flexibility can be ensured.

It should be understood that FIG. 5 is an example in which the first DCI and the second DCI are used, wherein the second verification information is generated according to at least part of the information in the first DCI and at least part of the information in the second DCI, but it should be understood that The first check information may also be generated according to at least part of the information in the first DCI and at least part of the other DCIs. For example, the other DCI may carry scheduling information that changes more slowly than the first DCI.

FIG. 6 is a schematic flowchart of a method 200 for transmitting downlink control information according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 200 can be performed by a network side device.

In 201, the network side device determines a masking sequence of the first version.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, before the network side device determines the masking sequence of the first version, the network side device may determine the first version from the at least n versions preset by the masking sequence, where The masking sequence of the first version is different from the version of the masking sequence of the masking operation of the CRC of the n-1 DCIs transmitted before the first DCI, and the DCI of the first DCI and the n-1 DCIs are both It belongs to the first-level DCI, and n represents an integer greater than or equal to 2.

For example, assuming n=2, the masking sequence includes two versions, version 1 and version 2, if the masking sequence corresponding to a DCI belonging to the first-level DCI sent by the network-side device before the first DCI is version 1. The network side device determines that the masking sequence corresponding to the first DCI is version 2. That is, two adjacent DCIs belong to the first level DCI The version of the mask sequence corresponding to the DCI is different.

For another example, when n=3, the masking sequence includes three versions, version 1, version 2, and version 3. If the network side device sends the DCI corresponding to the first level DCI corresponding to the first DCI, When the mask sequence is version 2 and version 3, respectively, the network side device determines that the masking sequence corresponding to the first DCI is version 1. That is, the versions of the adjacent masking sequences corresponding to the DCIs belonging to the first-level DCI are different. At this time, it is still impossible to verify the success when the first-stage DCI receives an error twice.

It should be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the sending time of the first DCI is earlier than the second DCI as an example, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and the first DCI and the second DCI may also pass different at the same time. The frequency is sent.

In 202, the network side device performs a masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI by using the masking sequence of the first version to obtain first verification information.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device may generate a masking mask by using the masking sequence of the first version and the identifier information of the terminal device; the network side device may perform the masking according to the masking mask. The CRC of a DCI is masked to obtain the first check information.

Optionally, before the network side device performs a masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI according to the masking sequence of the first version, the network side device may generate a first masking sequence according to the identifier information of the terminal device; The network side device may obtain the masking mask by performing a bitwise exclusive OR operation on the masking sequence of the first version and the first masking sequence.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device may intercept, from at least part of the identifier information of the terminal device, a sequence having the same CRC length as the first DCI, as the first masking sequence;

In another implementation manner, the network side device may further convert at least part of the information in the identification information of the terminal device by using a preset rule, so as to obtain a first masking sequence having the same CRC length as the first DCI.

It should be understood that the embodiment of the present application is only taken as an example of obtaining a masking mask by a bitwise exclusive OR operation. However, the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto, and a masking mask may also be obtained by other means.

Optionally, the network side device may perform a bitwise XOR operation on the obtained masking mask and the masked object (the CRC of the first DCI or the CRC of the second DCI) to implement the masking operation.

It should be further understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device may perform the first masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI according to the masking sequence of the first version, and then according to the identifier information of the terminal device. A masking sequence performs a second masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI performing the first masking operation to obtain first parity information.

In 203, the network side device sends the first DCI and the first check information to the terminal device.

In 204, the network side device performs a mask operation on the CRC of the second DCI by using the masking sequence of the first version to obtain second check information, where the first DCI is used in conjunction with the second DCI. The terminal device is scheduled.

The CRC of the second DCI performs a masking operation to obtain a second parity information.

Optionally, before the network side device performs a masking operation on the CRC of the second DCI according to the masking sequence of the first version, the network side device may generate a first masking sequence according to the identifier information of the terminal device; The network side device may obtain the masking mask by performing a bitwise exclusive OR operation on the masking sequence of the first version and the first masking sequence.

In 205, the network side device sends the second DCI and the second check information to the terminal device.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the network side device performs a mask operation on the CRC of the first DCI and the CRC of the second DCI by using the same version of the mask sequence, and the terminal device receives the second DCI and the second After verifying the information, it is necessary to perform verification according to the masking sequence with the same version of the CRC of the first DCI to verify the success, if the terminal device does not correctly receive or does not receive the first DCI, and utilizes other When the version of the masking sequence, the second DCI, and the second parity information are verified, a verification error occurs, and data transmission errors caused by the second DCI joint error DCI data transmission can be avoided.

In addition, by performing masking using the same version of the masking sequence, the association between the first DCI and the second DCI requiring joint scheduling can be established without changing the length of the check information.

It should be understood that FIG. 6 is an example in which the first DCI and the second DCI are used, wherein the second check information is a masked sequence having the same version using a masking sequence that performs a masking operation on the CRC of the first DCI. And generating a masking operation on the CRC of the second DCI, but it should be understood that the first parity information may also have the same version of the masking sequence with the masking sequence that performs the masking operation on the CRC of the other DCI, A DCI is generated by performing a masking operation. For example, the other DCI may carry scheduling information that is slower than the first DCI.

With reference to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , a method for transmitting downlink control information according to an embodiment of the present application is described in detail from the perspective of a network side device. The following describes the implementation according to the present application from the perspective of the terminal device with reference to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 .
