In order to clarify the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the present disclosure, it will be described in detail in conjunction with drawings and specific embodiments below.

As shown in Fig. 1, it is a flow schematic diagram of a signal transmission method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, applied to a network device, and includes the following steps;

Step 101: Configure at least one transmission beam, wherein the transmission beam is a beam corresponding to a transmission resource of a power saving signal.

Here, the network device configures at least one transmission beam for transmission resources of each power saving signal, that is, configures one or a plurality of transmission beams.

It should be explained that the transmission resource of the power saving signal specifically indicates the transmission resource of the power saving signal.

Here, the transmission resource of the power saving signal indicates the time and frequency for transmitting the power saving signal, and other resources such as code division resources and space resources are not excluded.

Step 102: Transmit the power saving signal on the at least one transmission beam.

In this step, specifically, the power saving signal is transmitted on at least one transmission beam through a transmission resource corresponding to the power saving signal.

In a signal transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one transmission beam is configured, wherein the transmission beam is a beam corresponding to a transmission resource of a power saving signal; On the at least one transmission beam, transmission of the power saving signal based on the beam can be realized through transmitting the power saving signal, and subsequently, the terminal ensures that a corresponding event is performed based on the instruction of the received power saving signal Thus, the purpose of saving power of the terminal may be reached.

Based on the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, as a preferred implementation manner, step 101 is:

It may include configuring one transmission beam through high-layer signaling or physical layer signaling.

at that stage. Specifically, one transmission beam may be configured for a transmission resource of a power saving signal through high-layer signaling or physical layer signaling.

Among them, preferably, a network device (eg, a base station) is dedicated to a terminal (UE specific) or a terminal group for a terminal in a semi-static configuration or a predefined manner through RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling A transmission resource of a (UE group specific) power saving signal may be statically configured, and then, one transmission beam may be configured for the corresponding power saving signal through RRC signaling. Preferably, the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on a sequence. Of course, other forms of power saving signals are not excluded.

Based on the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, as a preferred implementation manner, step 101 is:

It may include configuring at least two transmission beams through high-layer signaling or physical-layer signaling.

In this step, specifically, at least two transmission beams, that is, a plurality of transmission beams, may be configured for transmission resources of a power saving signal through high-layer signaling or physical layer signaling.

Based on the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , as a preferred implementation manner, step 101 may include the following steps:

configuring at least two transmission resources, wherein the transmission resources are resources corresponding to the power saving signal,

In this step, specifically, through high-layer signaling, at least two transmission resources are configured.

configuring at least one transmission beam for each of the transmission resources.

Here, the high-layer signaling may include high-layer RRC signaling or MAC CE.

Of course, it is also possible to configure at least two transmission resources through physical layer signaling. Here, the physical layer signaling may include physical layer PDCCH signaling.

It should be explained that the network device first configures a plurality of transmission resources, configures the plurality of transmission resources, and then configures at least one transmission beam for each transmission resource among the plurality of transmission resources. .

The network device may also configure one transmission resource A, configure the transmission resource A, and then configure at least one transmission beam for the transmission resource A; Subsequently, another transmission resource B is configured, and after configuring the corresponding transmission resource B, at least one transmission beam may be configured for the corresponding transmission resource B. In this analogy, at least one transmission beam is configured for each transmission resource until the configuration of n transmission resources is completed.

Further, the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the method comprising:

The method may further include configuring a reference signal for the transmission beam, wherein different transmission beams correspond to different reference signals.

Specifically, the different transmission beams correspond to different reference signals:

the sequences of reference signals corresponding to different transmission beams are the same, and the patterns are different;

the sequences of reference signals corresponding to different transmission beams are different, and the patterns are the same;

the sequences of the reference signals corresponding to different transmission beams are different, and the patterns are also different; at least one of

It should be explained that when the sequence of the reference signal and the beam information are related, where the sequence of the reference signal corresponding to the different transmission beams is different, the beam information related to the sequence of the reference signal is different, specifically, Beam index information included in the initial phase of the gold sequence of the sequence generating the reference signal may be different.

In one example, the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on PDCCH, and the network device configures a plurality of transmission beams for the transmission resource of the corresponding power saving signal, that is, CORESET, and also demodulates different demodulation reference signals (DRMS) for different transmission beams. reference signal), that is, DRMS configured between different transmission beams are different, and specifically, demodulation reference signal patterns (DRMS patterns) configured between different transmission beams may be different.

Here, in general, a transmission beam may include a plurality of polymerization grades, and DRMS patterns configured between different polymerization grades are different.

Based on the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , as an optional implementation manner, step 102 may include the following steps:

selecting one target transmission beam from among the at least one transmission beam;

at that stage. Specifically, the network device may select one target transmission beam from among the at least one transmission beam based on the channel transmission quality of the terminal.

For example, the network device obtains the channel transmission quality of the channel environment in which the terminal is located, reported by the terminal, and the network device is one adapted to the channel transmission quality of the terminal among the at least one transmission beam based on the channel transmission quality of the terminal. Select the target transmission beam of

here. The target transmission beam adapted to the channel transmission quality of the terminal, that is, the target transmission beam, allows the power-saving signal transmitted by the network device to reach the direction of the receiver of the terminal with better signal quality.

transmitting the power saving signal on the target transmit beam.

Based on the embodiment in which the network device configures at least two transmission beams through high-layer signaling or physical layer signaling. In an optional implementation manner, step 102 includes:

and transmitting, on at least two first time units, the power saving signal through the same one of the at least two transmission beams.

In this step, the power saving signal is transmitted on a plurality of positions (preferably, a plurality of first time units) using the same transmission beam.

For example, when a network device (eg, a base station) obtains the channel quality information reported by the terminal, the network device uses a transmission beam selected from among at least two transmission beams (ie, the same transmission beam) on a plurality of first time units. A power saving signal can be transmitted. Therefore, the power saving signal transmitted by the network device can reach the direction of the receiver of the terminal with better signal quality.

As another optional implementation manner, step 102 includes:

and transmitting the power saving signal on at least two first time units, each on a different one of the at least two transmit beams, wherein the different first time units correspond to different transmit beams.

In this step, different first time units correspond to different transmission beams, that is, there is a correspondence between the first time unit and the transmission beams.

For example, when the network device (eg, the base station) fails to obtain the channel quality information reported by the terminal, the network device may transmit a power saving signal using a different transmission beam among at least two transmission beams, and thus, at least the terminal It can be guaranteed to receive a power saving signal.

the network device configures at least two transmission resources, the transmission resources being resources corresponding to the power saving signal; Based on the embodiment of configuring at least one transmission beam for each of the transmission resources, as an optional implementation manner, the method comprises:

The method further includes configuring at least two second time units, wherein different second time units correspond to different transmission resources.

In this step, specifically, at least two second time units are configured through high-level signaling, physical-layer signaling, or an appointment in advance.

For example, through high-level RRC signaling or MAC CE or through an appointment in advance, each transmission resource configures a transmission time unit (ie, a second time unit) of a corresponding power saving signal.

Based on this, going further, step 102 is:

transmitting the power saving signal on at least two second time units and on a transmission resource corresponding to each of the at least two second time units through at least one transmission beam corresponding to the transmission resource have.

It should be explained that since the transmission beams on different transmission resources of the base station are different, the second time unit is the sum of the time during which the transmission beam transmits the power saving signal and the network device beam switching time. That is, the second time unit includes, in addition to the time for transmitting the power saving signal through the transmission beam, also the network device beam switching time left in advance.

In general, the time of the second time unit is greater than the time of the first time unit in the above-described embodiment.

In one example, when the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on a PDCCH, the network device (eg, a base station) configures T control resource sets (CORESET) for the power saving signal based on the PDCCH, and also W transmissions for each CORESET constituting a beam, W≥1, and W is a positive integer.

The network device in turn transmits the same power saving signal through the respective corresponding transmission beams on different second time units, different CORESETs.

For example, T=2 or 3, W=1, the network device may pre-define each transmission time unit (ie, the second time unit) as K OFDM symbols, and in each K OFDM symbols, the network The device may transmit the power saving signal once through the corresponding transmission beam on one CORESET.

It should be noted that, since the transmission beams on different CORESETs of the network devices are different, the K OFDM symbols include the network device beam switching time left in advance.

When W>1, that is, when there is more than one transmission beam configured on each CORESET, the network device transmits a power saving signal on each transmission time unit, that is, on K OFDM symbols, in turn, on W transmission beams corresponding to the current CORESET. or transmit a power saving signal on a transmission beam greater than or equal to 1 and less than W corresponding to the current CORESET.

It should be explained that the power saving signal transmitted on the plurality of CORESETs and the plurality of transmission beams corresponding thereto is the same power saving signal.

Taking it further, in order to realize the above steps, and also to improve the accuracy of the terminal receiving the power saving signal, the method comprises:

The method further comprises the step of configuring, by the terminal, a priori information for detecting the transmission beam on a time unit for the terminal, the time unit including a first time unit or a second time unit.

Specifically, the steps are:

through high-layer signaling, physical layer signaling, or pre-arranged, for the terminal, configuring a priori information for detecting a transmission beam on a time unit by the terminal.

Here, the a priori information of the transmission beam includes at least a correspondence relationship between the time unit and the transmission beam, but is not limited thereto. That is, different time units correspond to different transmission beams, where the network device may configure (specifically, semi-statically configured through RRC signaling) or may be obtained in the manner of a static configuration previously agreed with the terminal. Accordingly, the terminal may perform detection for each different beam.

In a signal transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one transmission beam is configured, wherein the transmission beam is a beam corresponding to a transmission resource of a power saving signal; On the at least one transmission beam, transmission of the power saving signal based on the beam can be realized through transmitting the power saving signal, and subsequently, the terminal ensures that a corresponding event is performed based on the instruction of the received power saving signal Thus, the purpose of saving power of the terminal may be reached.

As shown in FIG. 2 , it is a schematic flow diagram of a signal transmission method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, applied to a terminal, and includes the following steps;

Step 201: A power saving signal transmitted by the network device on at least one transmission beam is received.

In this step, at least one transmission beam includes one or a plurality of transmission beams.

It should be explained that the network device configures at least one transmission beam for transmission resources corresponding to the power saving signal, and after the configuration is completed, the network device may notify the terminal through high-layer signaling or physical layer signaling. After acquiring at least one transmission beam configured by the terminal network device, for each transmission beam, the terminal has all corresponding reception beams.

That is, in the corresponding step, specifically, through the reception beam, the power saving signal transmitted by the network device on at least one transmission beam may be received.

In the signal transmission method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the transmission of the power saving signal based on the beam can be realized by the network device receiving the power saving signal transmitted on the at least one transmission beam, and subsequently causing the terminal to receive the power saving signal By ensuring that the corresponding event is performed based on the instruction of , the goal of saving power of the terminal can be reached.

Based on the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 , in a preferred implementation manner, the transmit beam includes one transmit beam, and step 201 includes:

and receiving, by the network device, a power saving signal transmitted on the transmission beam, on a reception beam corresponding to the transmission beam.

Here, since the network device configures one transmission beam for transmission resources corresponding to the power saving signal, the terminal acquires the corresponding transmission beam through the signaling notification of the network device, and for the corresponding transmission beam, the terminal receives the corresponding reception beam have Accordingly, it is possible for the terminal to accurately receive the power saving signal on the reception beam corresponding to the corresponding transmission beam, while also saving resources and reducing the complexity of the terminal.

2, as a preferred implementation manner, the transmission beam includes at least two transmission beams, the at least two transmission beams corresponding to the same power saving signal; After step 201, the method comprises:

The method may further include determining, by the network device, a target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams.

It should be explained that the terminal does not know on which transmission beam the network device transmits the power saving signal, and also does not know on which reception beam the terminal can receive the power saving signal, so that the receiving beam of the power saving signal is received. In order to determine, reduce power consumption, and improve the success rate of demodulating and decoding the power saving signal, it is necessary for the network device to determine the target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams.

Based on this, when the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on the PDCCH, and the network device configures the reference signal for the transmission beam, correspondingly, as an optional implementation manner, the target selected by the network device from among the at least two transmission beams This step of determining the transmission beam may specifically include the following steps:

and detecting a reference signal corresponding to the transmission beam. Different transmit beams correspond to different reference signals;

In this step, specifically, hypothesis detection is performed on the DMRS of the power saving signal based on the PDCCH corresponding to each transmission beam, and preferably, the detection can be performed using simple sequence correlation.

When the reference signal is detected, a transmission beam corresponding to the reference signal is determined as a target transmission beam selected by the network device from among the at least two transmission beams.

Specifically, when only one reference signal is detected, a transmission beam corresponding to the reference signal is determined as a target transmission beam selected by the network device from among the at least two transmission beams.

When detecting at least two reference signals, a transmission beam corresponding to a target reference signal among the at least two reference signals is determined as a target transmission beam selected by a network device from among the at least two transmission beams, preferably, the target The channel transmission quality corresponding to the reference signal is greater than a preset threshold.

In this step, when the terminal detects the reference signal, the network device determines the transmission beam corresponding to the reference signal as the target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams, and the target reception beam corresponding to the target transmission beam Demodulation decoding of the power saving signal is performed on the received power saving signal, otherwise, demodulation decoding of the power saving signal is not performed. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce power consumption and improve the success rate of demodulating and decoding the power saving signal.

Here, when the transmission beam includes at least two transmission beams, and the at least two transmission beams correspond to the same power saving signal, as an optional implementation manner, step 201 includes:

The method may include receiving, respectively, power saving signals transmitted on respective corresponding transmission beams through at least two reception beams on the same first time unit.

It should be explained, that in the implementation, the network device side configures at least two transmission beams for the transmission resource of the power saving signal, and configures a reference signal for the transmission beam, among which different transmission beams are different standards. It corresponds to the scenario corresponding to the signal.

Taking an example of the method on the network device side as an example, the behavior of the corresponding terminal side will be described below, that is, the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on the PDCCH, and the network device is CORESET) configures a plurality of transmission beams, and configures different DRMSs for different transmission beams, that is, DRMSs configured between different transmission beams are different. When a network device (eg, a base station) transmits a power saving signal on a selected beam, the terminal first receives a power saving signal corresponding to a plurality of transmission beams, for example, in a high frequency band analog beam, preferably, the terminal receives the same first On a time unit, a power saving signal transmitted by each corresponding N transmission beam is received through the N reception beams, of which N≥2, and N is a positive integer.

Then, hypothesis detection is performed on the DMRS of the power saving signal based on the PDCCH corresponding to each transmission beam, and the detection is preferably performed using simple sequence relevance, and the UE receives the corresponding transmission beam at the corresponding beam receiving position. When detecting a DMRS corresponding to , the UE performs a complex channel coding operation.

Here, in the same first time unit, each of the power saving signals transmitted on the corresponding transmission beams through at least two reception beams is specifically received by the terminal using at least two beams on the same first time unit. At the same time, it indicates that the power saving signal transmitted on the corresponding transmission beam is received.

It should be noted that the terminal may receive a plurality of beams in the same first time unit, and in general, the terminal needs to have this capability, for example, the terminal's antenna has a plurality of panels.

As another optional implementation manner, step 101 includes:

on at least two first time units. receiving power saving signals transmitted by the at least two transmission beams, respectively, wherein different first time units correspond to different transmission beams;

Further, optionally, determining, by the network device, a target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams is specifically:

Based on the method of pre-arranged, configured by the base station, or random selection. performing signal detection for the at least two transmission beams; and

The method may include determining, when detecting the power saving signal, a transmission beam corresponding to the power saving signal as a target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams by the network device.

It should be explained that the implementation method is such that the network device side configures at least two transmission beams for the transmission resource of the power saving signal, and, on at least two first time units, each transmits a different transmission beam among the at least two transmission beams. It corresponds to the scenario of transmitting the power saving signal through

That is, the network device selects one transmission beam from among a plurality of transmission beams and transmits a power saving signal on a plurality of transmission time units, and correspondingly, the terminal is located at a different MO (Monitoring occasion, detection opportunity) position of the power saving signal, Based on the method of pre-arranged, configured by the base station, or random selection. Each of the plurality of MOs performs detection for different transmission beams, for example, the base station uses a different first time unit (eg, a different MO) through RRC signaling semi-static configuration or a static configuration scheme that the base station and the terminal have agreed in advance. It promises a correspondence relationship between , and transmit beams, so that the UE can perform detection for each different beam.

What should be explained is that MO is from the perspective of a terminal, and from the perspective of a network device, it is an opportunity to transmit a power saving signal.

More specifically, the base station may configure M transmission beams for the transmission resource of the power saving signal, for example, for CORESET corresponding to the power saving signal based on the PDCCH, for example, M=2. The base station selects one transmission beam based on the channel environment in which the UE is located, and transmits the corresponding power saving signal at a plurality of transmission opportunities, or the base station selects a plurality of power saving signals on different first time units (eg, a plurality of power saving signal transmission opportunities). Transmits a power saving signal on two transmission beams. The terminal receives the power saving signal according to different transmission beams used by the base station on the plurality of MOs, respectively. That is, the UE performs hypothesis detection for a plurality of beam transmission directions on a plurality of MOs.

Here, the UE may detect the direction of the beam on the MO, the RRC signaling may be semi-statically configured by the base station, or may be statically configured in a predefined manner, and the base station may also randomly select and transmit one beam. .

For example, in an MO having an odd index, the terminal detects the power saving signal after assuming that the transmission beam of the base station is the transmission beam 1; In the MO having an even index, the terminal detects the power saving signal after assuming that the transmission beam of the base station is the transmission beam 2; When there is no a priori information on how to detect the power saving signal, the terminal may examine the transmission beam in random turns, for example, if the current MO can assume that the transmission beam is 1 or 2, the next MO is the transmission beam Assume that this is 2 or 1 and check.

Based on the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, as a preferred implementation manner, step 201 includes:

on at least two second time units, receiving, by the network device, a power saving signal transmitted on at least one transmission beam corresponding to the transmission resource on a transmission resource respectively corresponding to the at least two second time units; and the transmission resource corresponds to the power saving signal.

It should be explained that the implementation method is that the network device side configures at least two transmission resources, the transmission resources being resources corresponding to the power saving signal; It corresponds to a scenario of configuring at least one transmission beam for each of the transmission resources.

Taking an example of the method of the network device side as an example, the behavior of the corresponding terminal side will be described below. That is, when the power saving signal is a power saving signal based on the PDCCH, the network device (eg, the base station) T control resource sets (CORESETs) are configured for the power saving signal, and W transmission beams are configured for each CORESET, W ≥ 1, and W is a positive integer. The network device in turn transmits the same power saving signal through the respective corresponding transmission beams on different second time units, different CORESETs.

Correspondingly, the terminal receives a power saving signal transmitted on a different CORESET and a corresponding different beam in a corresponding transmission time unit (ie, a second time unit).

It should be explained, from the viewpoint of the terminal node, as long as the terminal demodulates and decodes the power saving signal on one beam corresponding to one CORESET, subsequent beam scanning can be stopped.

As another implementation method, the UE detects a DMRS corresponding to a PDCCH on one beam corresponding to a different CORESET, and performs demodulation decoding only after detecting the DMRS, and if not detecting the DMRS, does not perform demodulation decoding; If the base station detects a plurality of DMRS sequences, demodulation decoding is performed by selecting a power saving signal based on a PDCCH corresponding to a DMRS sequence having relatively good one channel transmission quality.

As an optional implementation manner, after the network device determines a target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams, the method may further include:

performing demodulation and decoding on a target power saving signal corresponding to the target transmission beam;

In this step, after the network device determines the target transmission beam selected from among the at least two transmission beams, demodulation and decoding are performed on the target power saving signal corresponding to the target transmission beam, and demodulation and decoding processing for other transmission beams , thus reducing power consumption, as well as improving the success rate of demodulating and decoding the power saving signal.

after successful demodulation and decoding of the target power saving signal, instructing the terminal to perform a target event, wherein the target event includes: waking up a receiver or entering a sleep mode.

In this step, it should be explained that the target time includes: waking up the receiver or entering a sleep mode.

In the signal transmission method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the transmission of the power saving signal based on the beam can be realized by the network device receiving the power saving signal transmitted on the at least one transmission beam, and subsequently causing the terminal to receive the power saving signal By ensuring that the corresponding event is performed based on the instruction of , the goal of saving power of the terminal can be reached.
