Description

Sounding reference signal generation method and device

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for generating a sounding reference signal.

Background

In a time division duplex (time division duplex, TDD) scenario, a network device may measure a sounding reference signal (sounding reference signal, SRS) transmitted by a User Equipment (UE), obtain uplink channel information, and infer channel state information (channel state information, CSI) of a downlink channel based on reciprocity of the uplink channel and the uplink and downlink channels. In the third generation partnership project (3 ^rd In Release 18, 3 GPP) standard Release 18, coherent joint transmission (coherent joint transmission, CJT) is introduced, which can support up to 4 network devices simultaneously for downlink transmission for UEs. With the introduction of cqt, more transmission and reception points (transmission reception point, TRP) need to perform channel estimation through SRS, so SRS requirement will beGreatly increasing. This introduces more interference between SRS. Interference between SRS directly affects channel estimation of the network device. Therefore, how to reduce the interference between SRS is a technical problem to be solved.

Disclosure of Invention

The embodiment of the application provides a sounding reference signal generation method and device, which can reduce interference between SRSs, thereby being beneficial to channel estimation of network equipment.

In a first aspect, the present application provides a sounding reference signal generating method, which may include: receiving first configuration information, wherein the first configuration information is used for configuring a repetition factor of the SRS in a time domain, and the value of the repetition factor is a positive integer which is more than or equal to 1; determining a time division orthogonal cover code (time division orthogonal cover code, TD-OCC) sequence matched with the repetition factor, wherein the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence is smaller than or equal to the value of the repetition factor; based on the TD-OCC sequence, SRS is generated.

Therefore, the TD-OCC sequence is generated based on the repetition factor, and the SRS is generated based on the TD-OCC sequence, so that the interference between the SRS can be reduced, and the channel estimation of the network equipment is facilitated. And SRS is generated based on the TD-OCC sequence, so that the system capacity can be improved.

In one possible implementation, determining the TD-OCC sequence matching the repetition factor may include: based on the first TD-OCC sequence and/or the second TD-OCC sequence, TD-OCC sequences matching the repetition factor are generated. The sequence length of the first TD-OCC sequence is a first threshold value, the sequence length of the second TD-OCC sequence is a second threshold value, and the first threshold value is smaller than the second threshold value. The first TD-OCC sequence and the second TD-OCC sequence can be existing TD-OCC sequences, and the TD-OCC sequences for generating SRS are generated based on the existing TD-OCC sequences, so that the utilization rate of the existing TD-OCC sequences can be improved, and signaling overhead is saved.

In one possible implementation, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence used to generate the SRS is divisible by the first threshold and/or the second threshold, and the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence used to generate the SRS is equal to the repetition factor. Thus, the existing TD-OCC sequence can be fully utilized.

In one possible implementation, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence used to generate the SRS is not divisible by the first threshold and/or the second threshold, and the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence used to generate the SRS is less than the repetition factor. Thereby facilitating the increase of system capacity.

In one possible implementation manner, the method further includes: a first modification command is received, the first modification command being for indicating modification of the first TD-OCC sequence and/or the second TD-OCC sequence. Thereby contributing to an increase in flexibility of the generated SRS.

In one possible implementation manner, the method further includes: receiving second configuration information, wherein the second configuration information is used for configuring one or more reference TD-OCC sequences for the SRS; determining the TD-OCC sequence matching the repetition factor may include: a TD-OCC sequence matching the repetition factor is generated from the one or more reference TD-OCC sequences. It can be seen that the network device can instruct the terminal device which TD-OCC sequence or sequences to use to generate the TD-OCC sequence for generating the SRS so that the network device can quickly process the received SRS.

In one possible implementation manner, the method further includes: a second modification command is received, the second modification command being for indicating modification of one or more reference TD-OCC sequences. Thereby contributing to an increase in flexibility of the generated SRS.

In one possible implementation manner, the time domain resource of the SRS and the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel each include a first time domain resource, and the method further includes: and discarding the time domain resource of the SRS and transmitting the physical uplink channel on the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel. It can be seen that, in case that the time domain resource of the SRS collides with the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel, the physical uplink channel is preferentially transmitted, so as to avoid the time domain collision.

In one possible implementation manner, the time domain resource of the SRS and the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel each include a first time domain resource, and the method further includes: and determining a conflicted TD-OCC sequence corresponding to the first time domain resource, and discarding SRS symbols corresponding to the conflicted TD-OCC sequence. It can be seen that, when the time domain resource of the SRS collides with the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel, the SRS symbol corresponding to the colliding TD-OCC sequence is discarded, and part of the SRS symbol can be transmitted while avoiding the time domain collision.

In one possible implementation, the repetition factor is one of a set of preset values. The set of preset values may be predefined by the protocol or indicated by a high-level parameter.

In a second aspect, the present application provides a sounding reference signal generating method, which may include: transmitting first configuration information, wherein the first configuration information is used for configuring a repetition factor of the SRS in a time domain, and the value of the repetition factor is a positive integer which is more than or equal to 1; the repetition factor is used for determining a TD-OCC sequence matched with the repetition factor, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence is smaller than or equal to the value of the repetition factor, and the TD-OCC sequence is used for generating SRS.

Therefore, by sending the first configuration information, the terminal equipment is beneficial to generating the SRS based on the TD-OCC sequence, so that the interference between the SRS can be reduced, and the system capacity can be improved.

In one possible implementation manner, the method further includes: and sending second configuration information, wherein the second configuration information is used for configuring one or more reference TD-OCC sequences for the SRS, so that the terminal equipment generates the TD-OCC sequences matched with the repetition factors according to the one or more reference TD-OCC sequences. It can be seen that the network device can instruct the terminal device which TD-OCC sequence or sequences to use to generate the TD-OCC sequence for generating the SRS so that the network device can quickly process the received SRS.

In one possible implementation manner, the method further includes: a second modification command is sent, the second modification command being for indicating modification of one or more reference TD-OCC sequences. It can be seen that flexibility can be improved by the second modification command.

Next, related names or terms related to the present application are set forth to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art.

1. Repetition factor

In the present application, the repetition factor (repetition factor, R) is used to describe a transmission unit of an SRS time domain symbol, that is, transmission is performed in the time domain with several SRS symbols as a transmission unit. For example, a repetition factor of 4 indicates that transmission is performed with 4 SRS symbols as a transmission unit. For another example, a repetition factor of 2 indicates that transmission is performed with 2 SRS symbols as a transmission unit. The repetition factor can be understood as a repetition parameter at the symbol level. It should be noted that this name of the repetition factor is used as an example, and other names describing the nature of the repetition factor may be substituted with the repetition factor.

The repetition factor is typically configured with the number of time domain symbols of the SRS resource, which represents the number of symbols occupied by one SRS resource in the time domain. The repetition factor and the number of time domain symbols of the SRS resource may be configured by a higher layer parameter resource mapping, e.g., the configuration of the higher layer parameter resource mapping may include:

the number of time domain symbols of the SRS resource may be denoted as n_symbol and the repetition factor may be denoted as R. For example, R17 supports (n_symbol, R) = { (8, 1), (8, 2), (8, 4), (8, 8), (12, 1), (12, 2), (12, 4), (12, 6), (12, 12), (10, 1), (10, 2), (10, 5), (10, 10), (14, 1), (14, 2), (14, 7), (14, 14) }.

Exemplary, (n_symbol, R) = (8, 2), where 8 represents that one SRS resource occupies 8 symbols in the time domain; 2 denotes that every 2 symbols are transmitted as a whole, e.g. every 2 symbols are frequency hopped as a whole; then the 8 symbols can be divided into 2 symbols by 4, i.e. 4 transmissions, each for transmitting 2 symbols. The SRS information carried by each of the 8 symbols is the same.

Exemplary, (n_symbol, R) = (12, 1), where 12 represents that one SRS resource occupies 12 symbols in the time domain; 1 denotes that each symbol is transmitted as a whole, for example, each 1 symbol is frequency hopped as a whole; then the 12 symbols can be divided into 1 symbol by 12, i.e. 12 transmissions, each for transmitting 1 symbol. The SRS information carried by each of the 12 symbols is the same.

Currently, the value range of the number of time domain symbols of the SRS resource may be {1,2,4,8,10,12,14}, and the value range of R may be {1,2,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,14}. Note that, the symbol referred to in the present application may be an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, OFDM) symbol, a discrete fourier transform spread OFDM (Discrete Fourier Transform-spread OFDM) symbol, or other symbols, which is not limited in the present application.

2. TD-OCC sequence

The TD-OCC sequence refers to an OCC sequence in the time domain. The TD-OCC sequence may also be described as a time domain OCC sequence.

In one implementation, the TD-OCC sequence may be used to generate a physical uplink control channel (physical uplink control channel, PUCCH).

For example, for PUCCH format (format) 2, the TD-OCC sequence for generating PUCCH may be as shown in table 1 or table 2 below.

Table 1:in this case, the orthogonal sequence w for PUCCH format2 _n (i)

n	w _n (i)
		0	[+1 +1]
1	[+1 -1]

Table 2:in this case, the orthogonal sequence w for PUCCH format2 _n (i)

n	w _n (i)
		0	[+1 +1 +1 +1]
1	[+1 -1 +1 -1]
		2	[+1 +1 -1 -1]
3	[+1 -1 -1 +1]

Wherein n represents an orthogonal sequence index, w _n (i) The TD-OCC sequence corresponding to the orthogonal sequence index is represented, and i represents the ith element in the orthogonal sequence index.Indicating that PUCCH format2 occupies 2 symbols in one Subframe (SF), its corresponding TD-OCC sequence may be [ +1+1 [ + ] ]Or [ +1-1]。/>Indicating that PUCCH format2 occupies 4 symbols in one subframe SF, its corresponding TD-OCC sequence may be [ +1+1+1+1 ]]Or [ +1-1+1-1]Or [ +1+1-1]Or [ +1-1-1+1 ]]。

For another example, for PUCCH format4 and interleaved mapped PUCCH format3, the TD-OCC sequence used to generate PUCCH may be as shown in table 3 or table 4 below.

Table 3:in this case, the orthogonal sequence w for PUCCH format4 and PUCCH format3 of the interlace map _n (i)

n	w _n (i)
		0	[+1 +1]
1	[+1 -1]

Table 4:in this case, the orthogonal sequence w for PUCCH format4 and PUCCH format3 of the interlace map _n (i)

n	w _n (i)
		0	[+1 +1 +1 +1]
1	[+1 -j +1 +j]
		2	[+1 -1 +1 -1]
3	[+1 +j -1 -j]

Wherein,PUCCH format3 representing PUCCH format4 or interleaving map occupies 2 symbols in one SF, and its corresponding TD-OCC sequence may be [ +1+1]Or [ +1-1]。/>PUCCH format3 representing PUCCH format4 or interleaving map occupies 4 symbols in one subframe SF, and its corresponding TD-OCC sequence may be [ +1+1+1+1]Or [ +1-j+1+j]Or [ +1-1+1-1]Or [ +1+j-1-j]。

In another implementation, the TD-OCC sequence may be used to generate a physical uplink shared channel (physical uplink shared channel, PUSCH) modem reference signal (demodulation reference signal, DM-RS). For example, the TD-OCC sequence used to generate PUSCH DM-RS can be as shown in Table 5 below.

Table 5: parameters for PUSCH DM-RS type 1

Wherein w is _f (k') represents a frequency domain OCC sequence, w _t (l') represents a TD-OCC sequence. CDM denotes code division multiplexing (code division multiplexing), and a index of CDM group denotes λ.

In yet another implementation, the TD-OCC sequence may be used to generate a physical downlink shared channel (physical downlink shared channel, PDSCH) DM-RS. For example, the TD-OCC sequence used to generate PDSCH DM-RS may be as shown in Table 6 below.

Table 6: parameters for PDSCH DM-RS type 1

Wherein w is _f (k') represents a frequency domain OCC sequence, w _t (l') represents a TD-OCC sequence.

In yet another implementation, a TD-OCC sequence may be used for a channel state information reference signal (channel state information-reference signal, CSI-RS). For example, for CDM type CDM4 (FD 2, TD 2), the TD-OCC sequence for generating CSI-RS may be as shown in table 7 below; for CDM type CDM8 (FD 2, TD 4), the TD-OCC sequence for generating CSI-RS may be as shown in table 8 below.

			0	[+1 +1]	[+1 +1]
1	[+1 -1]	[+1 +1]
			2	[+1 +1]	[+1 -1]
3	[+1 -1]	[+1 -1]

Table 8: frequency domain sequence w of CDM4 (FD 2, TD 4) _f (k') and time domain sequence w _t (l')

Index	[w _f (0) w _f (1)]	[w _t (0) w _t (1) w _t (2) w _t (3)]
			0	[+1 +1]	[+1 +1 +1 +1]
1	[+1 -1]	[+1 +1 +1 +1]
			2	[+1 +1]	[+1 -1 +1 -1]
3	[+1 -1]	[+1 -1 +1 -1]
			4	[+1 +1]	[+1 +1 -1 -1]
5	[+1 -1]	[+1 +1 -1 -1]
			6	[+1 +1]	[+1 -1 -1 -1]
7	[+1 -1]	[+1 -1 -1 -1]

For example, see an example diagram of an OCC sequence for generating CSI-RS shown in fig. 2. Fig. 2 illustrates that 2 Resource Elements (REs) are occupied in the frequency domain and 2 symbols are occupied in the time domain, taking CDM4 (FD 2, TD 2) as an example. The four antenna ports 3000 to 3003 occupy the same time-frequency resource. The CSI-RSs transmitted on the four antenna ports are multiplied by different OCC sequences to realize orthogonality among the CSI-RSs, and 4 CSI-RSs are transmitted on the same time-frequency resource, and the base sequences of the 4 CSI-RSs can be the same or different. Different CSI-RSs are generated on the same time-frequency resource by adopting different OCC sequences, so that the system capacity can be improved. Note that the OCC sequence in fig. 2 is composed of a frequency domain OCC sequence and a time-frequency OCC sequence.

In order to reduce interference between SRS, this may be achieved by enhancing orthogonality between SRS. The orthogonality between SRS is improved, which can be realized by generating SRS through TD-OCC sequence. Therefore, the SRS generation method and device can reduce interference between SRS, so that channel estimation by network equipment is facilitated.

The SRS generation method provided in the present application is explained below.

Please refer to fig. 3, which is a schematic flow chart of the SRS generating method provided in the present application, the flow chart specifically includes the following steps:

s301, the network device sends first configuration information to the terminal device. Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the first configuration information from the network device.

The first configuration information is used for configuring a repetition factor of the SRS in a time domain, and the value of the repetition factor is a positive integer which is greater than or equal to 1. The method and the device can be suitable for the condition that the value of the repetition factor is larger than 1. Wherein the value of the repetition factor is one of the preset value sets. The preset value range may be predefined by the protocol. For example, the default value set {1,2,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,14}, as the standard evolves, the default value set may change (e.g., increase some values or decrease some values). For convenience of description, the repetition factor will be abbreviated as R hereinafter.

Optionally, the first configuration information may further include TD-OCC information adopted by the SRS resource. The TD-OCC information may include one or more TD-OCC sequence index numbers, or the TD-OCC information is used to configure length information of the TD-OCC sequence, or the TD-OCC information is used to configure generation information of the TD-OCC sequence.

Optionally, the first configuration information may further include activation and/or deactivation indication information of the TD-OCC function of the SRS. When the TD-OCC function of the SRS is activated, the TD-OCC information may be associated with R at the same time. Namely, when the first configuration information configures R, the TD-OCC information associated with the R can be found implicitly. The TD-OCC information may include one or more OCC sequence index numbers, or the TD-OCC information is used to configure length information of the TD-OCC sequence, or the TD-OCC information is used to configure generation information of the TD-OCC sequence. The terminal device may also report to the network device whether the terminal device supports the TD-OCC capability of the SRS. The terminal device supports the TD-OCC capability of the SRS, indicating that the terminal device may generate and/or use the TD-OCC sequence of the SRS, the first configuration information may include or implicitly indicate the TD-OCC information. The terminal device does not support the TD-OCC capability of the SRS, indicating that the terminal device cannot generate and/or use the TD-OCC sequence of the SRS, the first configuration information does not contain or implicitly indicate the TD-OCC information.

Optionally, the first configuration information may further include indication information, where the indication information is used to indicate the terminal device to activate or deactivate the first capability, where the first capability refers to that TD-OCCs with different sequence lengths can be used simultaneously within 1 SRS resource. In other words, the first capability refers to the ability to use TD-OCC sequences of different sequence lengths simultaneously within 1 SRS resource. The terminal device may also report to the network device whether itself supports the first capability.

The first configuration information may be radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) signaling.

S302, the terminal equipment determines a TD-OCC sequence matched with the repetition factor, and the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence is smaller than or equal to the value of the repetition factor.

The terminal device may determine a TD-OCC sequence matched with R in the following manner 1, manner 2, or manner 3, where the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence is less than or equal to the value of R.

Reference to SRS symbols in this application refers to symbols used for transmitting SRS, where the symbols may be OFDM symbols, DFT-s-OFDM symbols, or other symbols, without limitation.

In mode 1, the terminal device generates a TD-OCC sequence matching R based on the first TD-OCC sequence and/or the second TD-OCC sequence.

The sequence length of the first TD-OCC sequence is a first threshold value, the sequence length of the second TD-OCC sequence is a second threshold value, and the first threshold value is smaller than the second threshold value. For example, the first threshold is 2 and the second threshold is 4. As can be seen from tables 1 to 8 above, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence is typically 2 or 4. The present application takes the sequence length of the first TD-OCC sequence as 2, the sequence length of the second TD-OCC sequence as 4 as an example, i.e. the first threshold is 2, and the second threshold is 4 as an example.

Optionally, for the case that the value of R is even, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matching R is equal to the value of R, for example r=6, and the TD-OCC sequence matching R consists of a first TD-OCC sequence and a second TD-OCC sequence. For the case where the value of R is odd, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matching R is smaller than the value of R, for example, r=5, and the TD-OCC sequence matching R consists of one second TD-OCC sequence.

Optionally, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matching R can be divided by 2 and/or 4, and the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matching R is equal to the value of R. For example, r=6, can be divided by 2, and the TD-OCC sequence matching R consists of one first TD-OCC sequence and one second TD-OCC sequence. The sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with R cannot be divided by 2 and/or 4, and the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is smaller than the value of R. For example, r=7, not divisible by 2 and/or 4, and the TD-OCC sequence matching R consists of one first TD-OCC sequence and one second TD-OCC sequence.

Alternatively, taking the case that the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with r=7 is 2, the remainder of dividing 7 by 2 is 1, and at this time, the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is 3 TD-OCC sequences having a sequence length of 2. Wherein the 3 TD-OCC sequences of sequence length 2 may be the same TD-OCC sequence. Of the 7 SRS symbols for r=7, 1 SRS symbol is not multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence, and there are 3 groups of 2 SRS symbols multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 2. Alternatively, the 1 SRS symbol may be the 1 SRS symbol that is the last in time of 7 SRS symbols or the 1 SRS symbol that is the first in time of 7 SRS symbols.

Alternatively, taking the example that the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with r=7 is 4, the remainder of dividing 7 by 4 is 3, and at this time, the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is 1 TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 4. It means that 3 SRS symbols among 7 SRS symbols corresponding to r=7 are not multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence, but 4 SRS symbols are multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 4. Alternatively, the 3 SRS symbols may be three SRS symbols in which 7 SRS symbols are temporally rearmost or three SRS symbols in which 7 SRS symbols are temporally frontmost.

Alternatively, taking the case that the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with r=7 is 4 and 2, the remainder of 7 divided by 4 is 3, and the remainder of 3 divided by 2 is 1, at this time, the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is 1 TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 4 and 1 TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 2. It means that 1 SRS symbol out of 7 SRS symbols corresponding to r=7 is not multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence, but there are 4 SRS symbols multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 4 and there are 2 SRS symbols multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 2. Alternatively, the 1 SRS symbol may be the 1 SRS symbol that is the last in time of 7 SRS symbols or the 1 SRS symbol that is the first in time of 7 SRS symbols.

Alternatively, describing in a formula, when the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is M, the quotient of R divided by M is denoted as X, and the remainder is denoted as Y. Then, it indicates that each of the X groups of M SRS symbols is multiplied by or associated with a TD-OCC sequence having a sequence length of M, and that the other Y SRS symbols may not perform TD-OCC operation. The TD-OCC sequences adopted by the X groups of M SRS symbols can be the same. Alternatively, the Y SRS symbols may be the Y SRS symbols that are the R SRS symbols that are the last in time or the Y SRS symbols that are the R SRS symbols that are the first in time.

Alternatively, describing in a formula, when the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is M and N (M > N), the quotient of dividing R by M is denoted as X1, the remainder is denoted as Y1, the quotient of dividing Y1 by N is denoted as X3, and the remainder is denoted as Y2, then it means that one of the R SRS symbols has a TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length M multiplied or associated by each of the X1 group of M SRS symbols, and the other has a TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length N multiplied or associated by each of the X3 group of N SRS symbols, and optionally there may be Y2 SRS symbols not multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence. The TD-OCC sequences used by the M SRS symbols in the X1 group may be the same, and/or the TD-OCC sequences used by the N SRS symbols in the X3 group may be the same. Alternatively, the Y2 SRS symbols may be Y2 SRS symbols in which R SRS symbols are temporally rearmost or Y2 SRS symbols in which R SRS symbols are temporally frontmost. Wherein, from time point of view, the X1 group of M SRS symbols may precede or follow the X3 group of N SRS symbols.

Further, with regard to the above mode 1, the network device may further send a first modification command to the terminal device, and correspondingly, the terminal device receives the first modification command from the network device. The first modification command is used for indicating modification of a first TD-OCC sequence and/or a second TD-OCC sequence in the TD-OCC sequences matched with R. For example, r=6, the TD-OCC sequence matching R is [ +1+1+1-1-1 ], consisting of a first TD-OCC sequence [ +1+1 ] + a second TD-OCC sequence [ +1+1-1-1 ], the first modification command may instruct modification of the first TD-OCC sequence to [ +1-1 ], such that the newly composed TD-OCC sequence matching R is [ +1-1+1-1-1 ]. The first modification command may be, for example, a media access control-control element (medium access control-control element, MAC-CE) or downlink control information (downlink control information, DCI). Modifying the first TD-OCC sequence and/or the second TD-OCC sequence through the first modification command helps to increase flexibility of the generated SRS.

Mode 2, the terminal device generates a TD-OCC sequence matched with R based on the second configuration information.

The second configuration information may be sent by the network device to the terminal device, and the terminal device receives the second configuration information from the network device. The second configuration information may be RRC signaling. The second configuration information is used for configuring one or more reference TD-OCC sequences, and the terminal equipment generates a TD-OCC sequence matched with R according to the configured one or more reference TD-OCC sequences. The specific number of reference TD-OCC sequences may be related to the value of R. The second configuration information may be applied to each R consecutive SRS symbols of an SRS resource, or to an entire SRS symbol, or to all SRS resources in an SRS resource set, or to each R consecutive SRS symbols of all SRS resources in an SRS resource set.

For example, r=4, and the second configuration information is used to configure a reference TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 4, where the reference TD-OCC sequence may be any one w in table 2 _n (i) Or w in Table 4 _n (i) Or any one of [ w ] in Table 8 _t (0) w _t (1) w _t (2) w _t (3)]But may also be otherA TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 4. For another example, r=6, the second configuration information is used to configure 1 reference TD-OCC sequence [ +1+1 ] with sequence length 2]And 1 reference TD-OCC sequence [ +1+1-1 of sequence length 4]The second configuration information may also be used to configure the order of the two reference TD-OCC sequences (e.g., reference TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 2 preceded).

Further, for the above mode 2, the network device may further send a second modification command to the terminal device, and correspondingly, the terminal device receives the second modification command from the network device. Wherein the second modification command is used for indicating modification of the one or more reference TD-OCC sequences. For example, r=6, the second configuration information indicates two TD-OCC sequences of [ +1+1 ] and [ +1+1-1-1 ] respectively, and the second modification command may indicate that [ +1+1 ] is modified to [ +1-1 ] so that the TD-OCC sequence matching R may be expressed as [ +1-1+1+1-1-1 ]. The second modification command may be, for example, a MAC-CE. Modifying the reference TD-OCC sequence indicated by the second configuration information by the second modification command helps to improve flexibility.

And 3, the terminal equipment generates a TD-OCC sequence matched with R according to the predefined TD-OCC sequence of the protocol. That is, the protocol may predefine the TD-OCC sequence to which each R value corresponds.

For example, based on the mode 3, taking the preset value set {1,2,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,14} of R as an example, the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is described.

For r=2: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with the predefined sequence length of 2, such as [ +1+1 ] or [ +1-1 ], and can also be other TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2.

For r=4: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with a predefined sequence length of 4, such as any one w in table 2 _n (i) Or w in Table 4 _n (i) Or any one of [ w ] in Table 8 _t (0) w _t (1) w _t (2) w _t (3)]Other TD-OCC sequences of sequence length 4 are also possible. Or a combination of 2 TD-OCC sequences with 2 sequence lengths predefined by a protocol, wherein the 2 sequencesThe TD-OCC sequences of column length 2 may be the same or different.

For r=5: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 5 predefined by a protocol; or a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 4 predefined by the protocol (which is beneficial to capacity expansion).

For r=7: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 7 predefined by a protocol; or a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 6 predefined by a protocol (which is beneficial to capacity expansion).

For r=8: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 8 predefined by a protocol; the method can also be a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 7 predefined by a protocol (which is beneficial to capacity expansion); or a combination of 4 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2 predefined by a protocol; or a combination of 2 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 4; it is also possible to combine 1 TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 4 with 2 TD-OCC sequences of sequence length 2.

For r=10: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with the length of 10 predefined sequence length of a protocol; or a combination of 5 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2 predefined by a protocol; or a combination of 4 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2 and 1 TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 2; it is also possible to combine 3 TD-OCC sequences of sequence length 2 with 1 TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 4.

For r=12: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R can be a TD-OCC sequence with a predefined sequence length of 12; or a combination of 6 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2 predefined by a protocol; or a combination of 2 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 4 and 2 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2; a combination of 3 TD-OCC sequences of sequence length 4 is also possible.

For r=14: the TD-OCC sequence matched with R may be a TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 14 predefined by the protocol; or a combination of 7 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2 predefined by a protocol; or a combination of 2 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 4 and 3 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2; or a combination of 5 TD-OCC sequences with the sequence length of 2 and 1 TD-OCC sequence with the sequence length of 4; it is also possible to combine 1 TD-OCC sequence of sequence length 2 with 3 TD-OCC sequences of sequence length 4.

The above-mentioned modes 1 to 3 may be alternatively performed, or may be performed in combination, for example, in combination with mode 2 and mode 3, and the second configuration information is used to indicate at least one TD-OCC sequence of the predefined plurality of TD-OCC sequences. The above embodiments 1 to 3 are examples, and do not limit the present application.

S303, the terminal equipment generates SRS based on the TD-OCC sequence.

Optionally, the terminal device generates the SRS based on the TD-OCC sequence and the SRS base sequence. For example, the TD-OCC sequence is multiplied by an SRS base sequence to obtain an SRS sequence, based on which the SRS is available. The SRS base sequence may or may not have R as a transmission unit. If R is taken as a transmission unit, the sequence length of the TD-OCC sequence is the same as that of the SRS base sequence. If R is not taken as a transmission unit, a base sequence corresponding to the TD-OCC sequence is selected from SRS base sequences, and the base sequence is multiplied by the TD-OCC sequence to obtain the SRS sequence. That is, the generated SRS refers to the SRS of one transmission unit R. For example, r=4, and the generated SRS refers to one SRS in a transmission unit of 4 symbols in the time domain. For another example, r=6, and the generated SRS refers to one SRS having a transmission unit of 6 symbols in the time domain.

For example, r=6, SRS1 is generated based on TD-OCC sequence 1, SRS2 is generated based on TD-OCC sequence 2, SRS3 is generated by TD-OCC sequence 3, SRS4 is generated by TD-OCC sequence 4, the sequence length of the 4 TD-OCC sequences is 6, and the 4 SRSs occupy the same 6 symbols in the time domain. Because the 4 TD-OCC sequences have orthogonality, the interference among the 4 SRSs is smaller, so that the 6 symbols can bear the SRSs of 4 terminal devices or bear the 4 SRSs of 1 terminal device, thereby being beneficial to improving the system capacity.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the TD-OCC sequence is generated based on the repetition factor, and the SRS is generated based on the TD-OCC sequence, so that interference between the SRS can be reduced, thereby facilitating channel estimation by the network device. And SRS is generated based on the TD-OCC sequence, so that the system capacity can be improved.

As an alternative embodiment, the network device may not configure the TD-OCC sequence for some R, or the protocol may not predefine the TD-OCC sequence for some R, e.g. for r=5 or r=7, then the method provided in the present application cannot be applied, or a frequency hopping method is employed to reduce interference between SRS. Alternatively, the frequency hopping method is an exclusive relationship with the methods provided herein.

As an alternative embodiment, the generated SRS is an SRS with R as a transmission unit, and the SRS symbol corresponding to the TD-OCC sequence does not span two adjacent R SRS symbols. I.e., the start symbol of every R SRS symbols is the start of a new TD-OCC sequence. For example (12, 6), the start symbol of every 6 SRS symbols is the start of a new TD-OCC sequence.

As an alternative embodiment, the generated time domain resource of the SRS and the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel each include the first time domain resource, and then the time domain resource of the SRS is discarded and the physical uplink channel is transmitted on the time domain resource of the physical uplink channel. The physical uplink channel may be a physical uplink control channel (physical uplink control channel, PUCCH) or a physical uplink shared channel (physical uplink shared channel, PUSCH). The time domain resources of the SRS and the time domain resources of the physical uplink channel both include first time domain resources, which can be understood as that the time domain resources of the SRS occupy the same time domain resources as the time domain resources of the physical uplink channel, or the SRS collides with the physical uplink channel in the time domain. Discarding the time domain resources of the SRS may be understood as discarding the entire SRS resources, i.e. not transmitting the SRS.

In another implementation, when the time domain resource for generating the SRS and the time domain resource for the physical uplink channel both include the first time domain resource, determining a conflicted SRS TD-OCC sequence corresponding to the first time domain resource, and discarding the SRS symbol corresponding to the conflicted SRS TD-OCC sequence. For example, r=6, the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is composed of a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 2 and a TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 4, if the conflicting TD-OCC sequence corresponding to the first time domain resource is the TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 2, the SRS symbol corresponding to the TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 2 is discarded, and the SRS symbol corresponding to the TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 4 is reserved, so that SRS can still be transmitted; if the collision TD-OCC sequence corresponding to the first time domain resource is the 2 TD-OCC sequences, the 2 TD-OCC sequences may be discarded, and no SRS is transmitted or no TD-OCC sequence is used for the SRS. For another example, the TD-OCC sequence matched with R is a predefined TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 6, and if the collision TD-OCC sequence corresponding to the first time domain resource is the TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 6, the TD-OCC sequence with a sequence length of 6 is discarded, and no SRS is transmitted or no TD-OCC sequence is used for the SRS. So that time domain collisions can be avoided.
