Description

Data transmission method and device
Technical Field
The embodiment of the application relates to the field of communication, in particular to a data transmission method and device.
Background
According to the latest published international spectrum white paper of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), unauthorized (unlicensed) spectrum resources are larger than authorized spectrum resources, and if the unauthorized spectrum can be effectively utilized, the spectrum efficiency of wireless communication is necessarily greatly improved. In the prior art, an unlicensed Machine Type Communication (eMTC-U) is a Machine Communication technology that operates on an unlicensed spectrum, and is mainly used for achieving long-distance, low-cost, and low-power consumption Communication of the internet of things. The terminal may communicate with the base station using Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS), among others. For example, the terminal sends uplink data to the base station by using a non-adaptive frequency hopping technology, the bandwidth of the used uplink channel is determined by the capability of the terminal itself, for example, the main working frequency point is 2.4GHz, the system bandwidth of the terminal is 1.4MHz, and the terminal can also be extended to other unlicensed spectrum, such as sub1GHz specified by the Internet of things (IoT) including 315MHz, 433MHz, 868MHz, 915MHz, and the like, the base station sends downlink data to the terminal by using a frequency hopping or broadband technology, and the bandwidth of the used downlink channel can be a frequency hopping bandwidth or a broadband bandwidth, such as 180KHz, 1.4MHz, 5MHz, 10MHz, or 20 MHz. When the base station sends downlink data to the terminal, the downlink channel bandwidth occupied by the base station each time is larger than or equal to the uplink channel bandwidth when the terminal sends uplink data to the base station. If multiple terminals perform frequency hopping within the whole frequency range used by the base station to transmit uplink data to the base station, the multiple terminals occupy a wide frequency band (for example, the bandwidth of the 2.4GHz band is 83.5MHz) in the frequency domain, which results in that the frequency band occupied by the multiple terminals for transmitting uplink data is larger than the frequency band occupied by the base station for transmitting downlink data, the base station is difficult to receive the uplink data transmitted by the multiple terminals within the whole frequency range, and simultaneously, the purpose of reducing interference with other systems by the base station and the terminals through frequency hopping is violated, and the coexistence effect is affected.

Detailed Description
According to the international spectrum white paper released recently by FCC, it can be seen that the unlicensed spectrum resources are greater than the licensed spectrum resources, and if the unlicensed spectrum can be effectively utilized, the spectrum efficiency of wireless communication is certainly and greatly improved. Currently, the main technology used on unlicensed spectrum is Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) technology, but WiFi has drawbacks in mobility, security, Quality of Service (QoS) and handling multi-user scheduling simultaneously. Therefore, the MulteFire alliance provides a MulteFire technology capable of operating in an unlicensed spectrum based on a Long-term Evolution (LTE) technology, and provides a more effective wireless access by using unlicensed spectrum resources, thereby meeting the increasing demand of mobile broadband services. In addition, various countries have enacted different regulations in order to ensure fair use of the spectrum. For example, as shown in table 1, European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) imposes the following constraints on devices using the 2.4GHz band in the spectrum code ETSI EN 300328.
TABLE 1
Figure GPA0000284059440000081
Among these, from table 1, it is possible to obtain: european regulations divide the devices in use into FHSS devices and broadband Modulation (Wideband Modulation) devices, and further refine them into Adaptive (Adaptive) devices and Non-Adaptive (Non-Adaptive) devices, and different types of devices are subject to different regulations. For example, for a Listen Before Talk (LBT) based detection backoff (Detect And audio, DAA) adaptive FESS device, it is required to satisfy the limitations that the Output power (Output power) is less than or equal to 20dBm, the transmission time (Tx time) is not greater than 60ms, the Number of channels (Number of channels) is greater than or equal to 15, the frequency hopping spreading (FH separation) is greater than or equal to 100KHz, And 18us Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) is required. For another example, for a non-adaptive FESS-based device, the output power is less than or equal to 20dBm, the Medium Utilization (MU) rate is not greater than 10%, the single transmission time is not greater than 5ms, the Accumulated transmission time (Accumulated time) is not greater than 15ms, the Occupied channel bandwidth of one channel (Occupied channel) is less than or equal to 5MHz, and the transmission interval (Tx gap) is greater than or equal to 5 ms. MU is defined as MU (P/100mW) × DC, where P is the output power and DC is the duty cycle, and MU < 10% when P is 100mW and DC < 10%. For another example, for the DAA adaptive wideband modulation device Based on LBT, the output power is less than or equal to 20dBm, PSD is less than or equal to 10dBm/MHz, and the transmission time is less than 10ms (for Frame-Based Equipment (FBE)) or less than or equal to 13ms (for Load-Based Equipment (LBE)) limitations need to be satisfied. Where max (a, b) represents taking the maximum of a and b.
The FCC spectrum regulations are relatively less restrictive than the ETSI spectrum regulations, as shown in table 2.
TABLE 2
Figure GPA0000284059440000091
Among these, from table 2, it can be obtained: in the U.S. regulations, for digital modulation (digital modulation) devices, it is necessary to meet the limitations that Each channel Bandwidth (Bandwidth/reach channel) is greater than 500kHz, PSD is 8dBm/3kHz, transmission Power (or called conducted Power) does not exceed 30dBm, and Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) is less than 36 dBm. For FHSS devices with no less than 15 channels, the Dwell time (Dwell time) of Each channel is less than 0.4s/(0.4s × N), where N is the number of channels and the transmit power is less than 21 dBm. For FHSS devices with the number of channels not less than 75, the limitation of transmitting power greater than 30dBm is required. In addition, in the U.S. regulations, a mode allowing a mixture of digital modulation and FHSS, i.e., a device may include two operating modes, when operating in the digital modulation mode, the constraint corresponding to the digital modulation system, i.e., PSD is limited to 8dBm/3KHz, transmit power does not exceed 30dBm, etc., is observed, and when operating in the FHSS mode, the constraint corresponding to the FHSS system, i.e., transmit power needs to be less than 21dBm (number of channels is not less than 15) or 30dBm (number of channels is not less than 75), is observed.
In addition, with the continuous development of communication technology, both the narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) and the eMTC system based on cellular have become important branches of the Internet of everything. An eMTC-U communication technology is specified in MulteFire 1.1, the eMTC-U is a machine type communication technology working on an unauthorized frequency spectrum, and the eMTC-U communication technology is mainly used for achieving long-distance, low-cost and low-power-consumption Internet of things communication. The frequency hopping communication is a branch of spread spectrum communication, and both the transmitting and receiving parties of the communication adopt a communication mode of synchronously changing the carrier frequency by the same frequency hopping pattern when transmitting data, so that the communication system has strong anti-interference performance. For example, bluetooth uses an Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM) frequency band of 2.4GHz, and is divided into 79 channels from 2.402GHz to 2.480GHz, each channel has a bandwidth of 1MHz, and an average hopping rate of 1600 hops/sec. As shown in fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a frequency hopping pattern provided in the prior art is shown, where CH0 is a fixed channel (Anchor channel), and CH1 to CHN are channels that can be used by both transceivers of communication using a frequency hopping spread spectrum technique for communication. Therefore, when sending data to the base station, the terminal of the eMTC system uses non-adaptive frequency hopping, the main working frequency point is 2.4GHz, the system bandwidth is 1.4MHz, and of course, the terminal can also be extended to other unlicensed frequency spectrums, such as sub1GHz including 315MHz, 433MHz, 868MHz, 915MHz, and the like. A frequency hopping or broadband technology is used when a base station sends data to a terminal, and currently, in discussion, a downlink channel bandwidth used for sending downlink data is 1.4MHz, 5MHz, 10MHz, or 20 MHz. In order to reduce the Synchronization time and power consumption, a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS), a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS), and a Master Information Block (MIB) are transmitted in one or several channels of fixed frequency, such as a fixed Channel (CH), which may be CH 0. As shown in fig. 2, in a schematic diagram of an uplink hopping pattern and a downlink hopping pattern provided in the prior art, taking a downlink 5MHz bandwidth and an uplink 1.4MHz bandwidth as an example, when a base station performs data transmission, a base station performs pseudo-random frequency hopping according to a granularity of a channel bandwidth (e.g., 5MHz) of the base station, and a terminal performs pseudo-random frequency hopping according to a granularity of a channel bandwidth (e.g., 1.4MHz) of the terminal every 20 milliseconds (ms) of transmission. Therefore, if multiple terminals perform frequency hopping within the whole frequency band used by the base station to transmit uplink data to the base station, the multiple terminals occupy a wide frequency band in the frequency domain (for example, the bandwidth of the 2.4GHz band is 83.5MHz), which results in that the frequency band occupied by the multiple terminals for transmitting uplink data is larger than the frequency band occupied by the base station for transmitting downlink data, and it is difficult for the base station to receive uplink data transmitted by the multiple terminals within the whole frequency band, and at the same time, the purpose of reducing interference with other systems by the base station and the terminals through frequency hopping is violated, which affects the coexistence effect.
In order to solve the problem that when a terminal transmits uplink data in a frequency hopping mode, if frequency hopping is carried out in the whole frequency band and a base station needs to receive data of a plurality of terminals at the same time, the base station needs to have the capability of receiving the whole frequency band range at the same time; the coexistence of multiple channels, in which multiple terminals occupy the bandwidth of the entire frequency band at the same time, has a great influence on the systems. The embodiment of the application provides a data transmission method, and the basic principle is as follows: firstly, terminal equipment determines at least one downlink time-frequency resource position transmitted in a frequency hopping mode, then receives downlink data sent by network equipment at a first downlink time-frequency resource position of the at least one downlink time-frequency resource position, and determines a first frequency domain range according to the first downlink time-frequency resource position, wherein the first frequency domain range is the same as the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource position; secondly, determining the frequency domain range of the second time frequency resource position, wherein the frequency domain range of the second time frequency resource position is the same as the first frequency domain range, or in the first frequency domain range, and finally, the terminal equipment sends uplink data to the network equipment at the second time frequency resource position. In the data transmission method according to the embodiment of the present application, before the terminal device sends uplink data to the network device in a frequency hopping manner, it needs to determine a frequency domain range of a first downlink time-frequency resource location for receiving downlink data, then, determining the frequency domain range of the second time frequency resource position used by the terminal device to send the uplink data to the network device, when the terminal equipment sends uplink data to the network equipment in a frequency hopping mode, the used second time frequency resource positions are all in the frequency domain range of the first downlink time frequency resource position, therefore, when a plurality of terminal devices transmit uplink data to the network device in the same frequency hopping mode, the network device can receive the uplink data transmitted by the plurality of terminals in a narrower frequency band, meanwhile, the method also meets the aim that the network equipment and the terminal equipment reduce the interference with other systems through frequency hopping.

Fig. 8 is a flowchart of a data transmission method provided in an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 8, the method may include:
401. and the network equipment transmits the downlink data on at least one downlink time-frequency resource position in a frequency hopping mode.
The network device sends downlink data to the terminal device by using a frequency hopping technology, that is, the network device needs to hop on a plurality of downlink channels in the process of sending the downlink data to the terminal device, and sends the downlink data to the terminal device by using different downlink channels at different times. The bandwidth of the downlink channel used by the network device to send the downlink data to the terminal device may be 1.4MHz, 5MHz, 10MHz, or 20MHz, that is, the hopping granularity may be 1.4MHz, 5MHz, 10MHz, or 20 MHz. It can be understood that the location of the downlink channel corresponds to the location of the frequency resource.
It should be noted that, before the network device sends downlink data on at least one downlink time-frequency resource location in a frequency hopping manner, first, the network device needs to determine at least one downlink time-frequency resource location first. For example, as shown in fig. 9, the network device may determine the downlink time-Frequency resource location according to at least one of a frame number, a physical cell identifier, a downlink Channel bandwidth, an available Channel list (AFH _ Channel _ map), and a minimum Channel number. For different parameter values, the network device may determine different downlink time-frequency resource locations, and thus, the network device may determine at least one downlink time-frequency resource location. The network device should determine the downlink time-frequency resource location at least according to the frame number and the physical cell identifier. The frame number represents time information; the physical cell identifier represents a cell in which the terminal device currently resides, and the network device can obtain the physical cell identifier after the terminal device resides in the cell; the downlink channel bandwidth represents the system bandwidth; the available channel list comprises the states of channels used for data transmission between the network equipment and the terminal equipment; the minimum number of channels indicates the number of channels used for data transmission between the network device and the terminal device. Then, the network device configures the frame number, the physical cell identifier, the downlink channel bandwidth, the available channel list and the minimum channel number to the terminal device through the fixed channel, so that the terminal device can determine at least one downlink time-frequency resource position. Fig. 10 is a schematic diagram of a downlink channel number calculation method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in table 3, each parameter in the calculation process in fig. 10 is decomposed as follows.

The frame number occupies 20bits, the Physical Cell Identifier (PCI) is 0-503, the channel bandwidth is 0-3, the available channel list (AFH _ channel _ map) occupies 16bits, the identification information of the terminal device occupies 16bits, and the minimum channel number can be any value from 1 to 75.
In addition, in the frequency domain of one downlink channel, the network device may use different Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) to transmit downlink data to different terminal devices. The network device further needs to configure, to the terminal device, a PRB used for transmitting Downlink data through a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH).
402. The terminal equipment determines at least one downlink time-frequency resource position transmitted in a frequency hopping mode.
After the network device sends downlink data to the terminal device on at least one downlink time-frequency resource location in a frequency hopping manner, the terminal device needs to determine at least one downlink time-frequency resource location transmitted in the frequency hopping manner before receiving the downlink data. For example, since the network device configures, to the terminal device, the frame number, the physical cell identifier, the downlink channel bandwidth, the available channel list, and the minimum channel number through the fixed channel, and the network device sends, to the terminal device, the PRB used for the downlink data, the terminal device may determine at least one downlink time-frequency resource location according to the frame number, the physical cell identifier, the downlink channel bandwidth, the available channel list, and the minimum channel number. The terminal equipment at least determines the position of the downlink time-frequency resource according to the frame number and the physical cell identifier.
403. And the terminal equipment receives downlink data sent by the network equipment at a first downlink time-frequency resource position of at least one downlink time-frequency resource position.
After the terminal device determines at least one downlink time-frequency resource location, downlink data sent by the network device is received at the first downlink time-frequency resource location, that is, the downlink data sent by the network device is received at a specific PRB used for transmitting the downlink. The at least one downlink time frequency resource location comprises a first downlink time frequency resource location. Of course, if the network device determines that the terminal device needs to receive the downlink data sent by the network device at the second downlink time-frequency resource location, the terminal device receives the downlink data sent by the network device at the second downlink time-frequency resource location. Note that the first time/frequency resource location does not include a fixed channel, and the frequency location of the fixed channel does not change, for example, CH0 is a fixed channel, and the fixed channel is used to transmit PSS, SSS, MIB, and the like.
404. The terminal device determines a first frequency domain range.
After the terminal device receives downlink data sent by the network device at a first downlink time-frequency resource position of at least one downlink time-frequency resource position, the terminal device needs to determine a first frequency domain range, the first frequency domain range is the same as the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource position, and the terminal device determines the first frequency domain range, that is, determines the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource position. Since the frequency domain range of at least one downlink time-frequency resource location may be indicated by a corresponding downlink channel number, the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource location may be indicated by the first downlink channel number, and thus, the terminal device may determine the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource location by determining the first downlink channel number.
For example, the terminal device may determine the first frequency domain range according to the method shown in fig. 9 and fig. 10, that is, the first frequency domain range is determined according to at least one of a frame number, a physical cell identifier, a downlink channel bandwidth, an available channel list, and a minimum channel number. The terminal device should determine the first frequency domain range at least according to the frame number and the physical cell identifier. The terminal equipment can know the frame number after receiving the downlink data, and the frame number represents the moment when the terminal equipment receives the current downlink data; the physical cell identifier is used for indicating a cell in which the terminal device currently resides, and the terminal device can obtain the physical cell identifier after residing in the cell; the downlink channel bandwidth is used for representing the maximum bandwidth of downlink data sent by the network device to the terminal device, and the downlink channel bandwidth can be configured to the terminal device by the network device through signaling; the available channel list comprises the states of channels used for data transmission between the network equipment and the terminal equipment, and the available channel list can be configured to the terminal equipment by the network equipment through signaling; the minimum number of channels is used to indicate the number of channels used for data transmission between the network device and the terminal device, and the minimum number of channels may be configured to the terminal device by signaling by the network device or may be configured to the terminal device in advance as specified by a protocol. And then, the terminal equipment calculates to obtain a first downlink channel number according to at least one item of the frame number, the physical cell identifier, the downlink channel bandwidth, the available channel list and the minimum channel number.
405. And the terminal equipment determines the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource position.
After the terminal device determines the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource location, the terminal device determines the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location. The method for determining the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource position by the terminal device may include the following two ways:
in an implementation manner, the terminal device may determine the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location according to a preset algorithm. Since the frequency domain range of at least one downlink time-frequency resource location may be indicated by a corresponding downlink channel number, and the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location described herein may refer to the frequency domain ranges of a plurality of second time-frequency resource locations, similarly, the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location may also be indicated by at least one uplink subchannel number. The terminal device determines at least one uplink subchannel number, which may be determined according to the frame number, the subframe number, and the identification information of the terminal device. The frame Number is a time when the terminal device receives downlink data, the terminal device may obtain a subframe Number through a Cell search process on a fixed channel, and the Identification information of the terminal device may be a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (CRNTI) or an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI).
For example, fig. 11 is a schematic diagram of a method for determining an uplink sub-channel number according to an embodiment of the present application, where a terminal device may obtain a first downlink channel number according to a frame number, a physical cell identifier, a downlink channel bandwidth, an available channel list, and a minimum channel number, and then determine at least one uplink sub-channel number according to the frame number, the sub-frame number, and identification information of the terminal device. Fig. 12 is a schematic diagram illustrating a method for calculating an uplink subchannel number according to an embodiment of the present application. The decomposition of the parameters in the calculation process in fig. 12 is shown in table 3.
In another implementation manner, when the terminal device determines the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location based on the scheduling of the network device, the network device may pre-configure, for the terminal device, a corresponding relationship between a virtual subchannel number and an uplink subchannel number through a fixed channel, where the corresponding relationship between the virtual subchannel number and the uplink subchannel number includes time-related parameters, that is, at different times, the corresponding relationship between the virtual subchannel number and the uplink subchannel number is different. The correspondence is a pseudo-random function related to time, and can be defined in advance by the protocol. Assuming that the network device and the terminal device calculate the position of the downlink channel corresponding to the 5MHz bandwidth first, then the network device indicates the virtual channel number used by each terminal device through the scheduling signaling (the 5MHz bandwidth may correspond to 4 sub-bands, each sub-band corresponds to a virtual channel), and the network device and the terminal device correspond to the actual physical channel number through the correspondence defined by the protocol (satisfying the pseudo-random requirement). And the terminal equipment transmits data at the frequency position corresponding to the actual physical channel number. For example, as shown in fig. 13, the corresponding relationship between the virtual subchannel number and the uplink subchannel number is illustrated. At time T1, virtual subchannel No. 1 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 2, virtual subchannel No. 2 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 1, virtual subchannel No. 3 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 4, and virtual subchannel No. 4 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 3; at time T2, virtual subchannel No. 1 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 4, virtual subchannel No. 2 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 2, virtual subchannel No. 3 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 1, and virtual subchannel No. 4 corresponds to uplink subchannel No. 3. After the terminal equipment receives at least one virtual subchannel number sent by the network equipment, the terminal equipment inquires the corresponding relation between the virtual subchannel number and the uplink subchannel number according to the at least one virtual subchannel number, and determines at least one uplink subchannel number.
It should be noted that the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location may be the same as the first frequency domain range, or within the first frequency domain range. For example, when the uplink channel bandwidth is 1.4MHz and the downlink channel bandwidth is 1.4MHz, the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource location may be the same as the first frequency domain range; and when the bandwidth of the uplink channel is 1.4MHz and the bandwidth of the downlink channel is 5MHz, the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource position is in the first frequency domain range.
406. And the terminal equipment sends uplink data to the network equipment at the second time-frequency resource position.
And after determining the frequency domain range of the second time frequency resource position, the terminal equipment sends uplink data to the network equipment at the second time frequency resource position.
407. And the network equipment receives the uplink data sent by the terminal equipment at the second time-frequency resource position.
And after the terminal equipment sends the uplink data to the network equipment on the second time-frequency resource position, the network equipment receives the uplink data sent by the terminal equipment on the second time-frequency resource position. The frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource position is the same as the first frequency domain range, or the first frequency domain range is the same as the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource position in the first frequency domain range, and the first downlink time-frequency resource position is a resource used by the network device to send downlink data to the terminal device.
For example, fig. 14 is a schematic diagram of an uplink hopping pattern and a downlink hopping pattern provided in this embodiment of the present application, where it is assumed that a downlink channel bandwidth is 5MHZ, a transmission duration is 20ms, an uplink sub-channel bandwidth is 1.4MHZ, and a transmission duration is 5ms, where terminal devices 1 to 8 perform frequency hopping within a frequency domain of the downlink channel bandwidth according to the data transmission method described in this embodiment of the present application, and send uplink data to a network device, that is, uplink sub-channels are all within the range of the downlink channel bandwidth.
In the data transmission method according to the embodiment of the present application, before the terminal device sends uplink data to the network device in a frequency hopping manner, it needs to determine a frequency domain range of a first downlink time-frequency resource location for receiving downlink data, then, determining the frequency domain range of the second time frequency resource position used by the terminal device to send the uplink data to the network device, when the terminal equipment sends uplink data to the network equipment in a frequency hopping mode, the used second time frequency resource positions are all in the frequency domain range of the first downlink time frequency resource position, therefore, when a plurality of terminal devices transmit uplink data to the network device in the same frequency hopping mode, the network device can receive the uplink data transmitted by the plurality of terminals in a narrower frequency band, meanwhile, the method also meets the aim that the network equipment and the terminal equipment reduce the interference with other systems through frequency hopping.
In addition, after the terminal device determines the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource position, if the terminal device uses the available time length of the uplink sub-channel corresponding to at least one uplink sub-channel number to be smaller than the available time length of the first downlink channel corresponding to the first downlink channel number, the terminal device performs frequency hopping in the frequency range of the first downlink channel to send uplink data to the network device, the first downlink channel is a channel in which the terminal device receives the downlink data sent by the network device, and the frequency domain range of the first downlink time-frequency resource position indicated by the first downlink channel number is the first downlink channel; similarly, the frequency domain range of the second time-frequency resource position indicated by the uplink subchannel number is the uplink subchannel. For example, assuming that the maximum duration of each data transmission by the terminal device is 5ms and then stops for 5ms, the terminal device stays on the downlink channel for a duration of 30ms at most. As shown in fig. 14, if the length of the stay of the terminal device 1 for transmitting data on the first uplink sub-channel (shown in the first row in fig. 14) is less than 5ms, that is, the stay of the terminal device 1 for transmitting data on the current 5MHz downlink channel is less than 30ms, the terminal device 1 may perform frequency hopping once again in the 5MHz downlink channel, and the terminal device 1 transmits data on the second uplink sub-channel (shown in the second row in fig. 14).
It should be noted that, since the channel division of the cellular communication system is determined by the network device and notified to the terminal device, the network device always knows which frequency bands belong to the frequency domain range of the UpLink channel and which frequency bands belong to the frequency domain range of the Downlink channel in the frequency domain, regardless of UpLink (UL) transmission (the terminal device is the transmitting end and the network device is the receiving end) or Downlink (DL) transmission (the network device is the transmitting end and the terminal device is the receiving end). Thus, the terminal device determines that the frequency domain ranges of the second time-frequency resource locations are all indicated by the network device.
