相关申请的交叉参考
本申请主张在2016年11月4日在中国提交的中国专利申请号No.201610966566.9的优先权，其全部内容通过引用包含于此。
技术领域
本公开文本实施例涉及移动通信技术领域，尤其涉及一种下行控制信道的检测方法、发送方法、网络侧设备及终端。
背景技术
在移动通信系统中，终端通常需要对控制信道进行检测，从而获取数据信道所在的时频资源位置、调制编码方式、混合自动重传请求(Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest，HARQ)进程等信息，以用于数据解调和解码。
终端可能采用一级检测方式，检测下行控制信道。这里的一级检测是指终端只需要一次下行控制信道检测即可获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息，从而可以获取数据信道所在的时频资源位置、调制编码方式、HARQ进程等信息，进而可以对网络发送的数据进行解调和解码。也就是说，终端一旦在某个下行控制信道中检测到网络发送给本终端的用于数据信道检测所需的控制信息时，终端可以不再进行下行控制信道的检测，即可对所述数据信道进行接收，获取网络发送的数据。可以看出，一级检测的检测效率比较高，即终端通过一次检测即可获取相应的数据信道的控制信息，但是这对于终端检测的要求也比较高，即要求终端在每一个活跃的传输资源(如子帧)都进行检测，以判断是否有属于自己的控制信道到达。
另外，还可能会提出控制信道的多级检测的方式，多级检测方式通常其检测复杂度相对较高。

这里的一级检测是现有技术中终端通常采用的下行控制信道的检测方式，所述一级检测为通过一次下行控制信道检测获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息的检测方式。例如，作为非限定性示例，获取数据信道所在的时频资源位置、调制编码方式、HARQ进程等信息，这些信息足够使得终端完成对网络发送的数据进行解调和解码。也就是说，终端一旦在某个下行控制信道中检测到网络发送给本终端的数据信道检测所需的控制信息时，终端可以不再进行下行控制信道的检测，即可对所述数据信道进行接收，获取网络发送给终端的数据。当然，下行控制信道检测还可能获取更多的信息，如以承载用于上行传输的上行控制信息。
所述多级检测为通过至少两次下行控制信道检测获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息的检测方式。如果检测的次数少于多级检测定义的检测次数，则不能获取用于数据信道检测所需的足够信息。多级检测的检测次数可以是2次、3次或更多，优选的采用2次检测。在本文的最后，将以2次检测为例，详细介绍下行控制信道的多级检测方式的具体实现。
从以上介绍可以看出，一级检测方式的检测效率比较高，即终端通过一次检测即可获取相应的数据信道的控制信息，但是这对于终端检测的要求也比较高，即要求终端在每一个活跃的传输资源(如子帧)都进行检测，以判 断是否有属于自己的控制信道到达，这将导致较多的终端功耗。而多级检测方式的检测方式可以在一定程度上降低检测的频次，从而节约终端功耗，但多级检测方式的检测实现复杂度相对较高。
为了兼顾降低终端功耗的多级检测方式和降低检测复杂度的需求，本公开文本实施例提供一种下行控制信道的发送/接收方案，能够支持下行控制信道的多种检测方式，从而可以为自适应调整下行控制信道检测方式提供技术支持。
请参照图1，本实施例提供的下行控制信道的检测方法，可应用于终端侧。如图1所示，该检测方法包括：
步骤11，确定下行控制信道的检测方式。
这里，终端需要确定下行控制信道的检测方式，其中，所下行述控制信道的检测方式包括一级检测和多级检测，其中，所述一级检测为通过一次下行控制信道检测获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息的检测方式，所述多级检测为通过至少两次下行控制信道检测获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息的检测方式。
步骤12，根据所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式，进行下行控制信道的检测。
本实施例中，当所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式为一级检测时，可以从所述第一下行控制信道中读取数据信道检测所需的控制信息。例如，一级检测下的下行控制信道中承载的信息，这里记为DCI(Downlink Control Indication)。作为一种实现方式且作为非限定性示例，DCI中包含的信息可以包括：数据信道的时频域资源、调制编码方式以及HARQ进程等信息，下表1给出了一种DCI的格式示意：
Figure PCTCN2017108616-appb-000001
表1
本实施例中，当所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式为多级检测时，可以从第一下行控制信道中读取下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息。根据 所读取的下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，逐级进行下行控制信道的检测，直至获取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
例如，终端从第一下行控制信道中读取下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，以及，根据获取的下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，在第一下行控制信道的下一级控制信道(假设为第二控制信道)上进行检测，从第二控制信道上检测获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息(当所述多级检测为2级检测时)，或者，获取第二控制信道的下一级控制信道(假设为第三控制信道)检测所需的控制信息，以此类推，逐级进行下行控制信道的检测，直至获取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
这里，下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息包括：下行控制信道的时域位置、下行控制信道的频域位置、下行控制信道的空域位置以及下行控制信道所在的子载波编号等信息中的至少一种。这些信息可以用于确定下行控制信道的时频位置，以在对应位置上检测下行控制信道。
所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息可以包括：数据信道的资源位置、数据信道采用的调制编码方式以及数据信道对应的混合自动重传(HARQ)进程信息等信息中的至少一种。这些信息可以用于确定数据信道的时频位置，以在对应位置上检测数据信道。
通过以上步骤，本公开文本实施例中终端能够根据所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式，进行一级检测或多级检测，从而使终端能够支持下行控制信道的多种检测方式，可以为自适应调整下行控制信道检测方式提供技术支持，以兼顾降低终端功耗的多级检测方式和降低检测复杂度的需求。
第二实施例
请参照图2，本实施例提供的下行控制信道的检测方法，可应用于终端侧。如图2所示，该检测方法包括：
步骤21，检测第一下行控制信道，获取控制信令分级信息。
这里，控制信令分级信息用于指示下行控制信道的检测方式。下行控制信道的检测方式包括一级检测和多级检测，所述一级检测是指只需要一次下行控制信道检测即可获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息，所述多级检测是指需要多次下行控制信道检测才能获取数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
步骤22，根据所述控制信令分级信息，确定下行控制信道的检测方式。
例如，本实施例可以在第一下行控制信道中发送控制信令分级信息。例如，发送1-bit的控制信令分级信息。当该控制信令分级信息为0时，表示该第一下行控制信道是一级检测的控制信道。而当该控制信令分级信息为1时，表示该第一下行控制信道是多级检测的第一级的控制信道。从而，可以根据该控制信令分级信息，当该控制信令分级信息为0时，确定检测方式为一级检测，反之，则为多级检测。当然，这里的控制信令分级信息的值与检测方式之间的对应关系可以自行定义。
步骤23，根据所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式，进行下行控制信道的检测。
具体的，在上述步骤21中，可以通过盲检测方式检测到第一下行控制信道，并从第一下行控制信道上中读取所述控制信令分级信息；或者，根据预先获取的物理层信令或高层控制信令，确定第一下行控制信道的资源位置，并检测所述第一下行控制信道，从第一下行控制信道中读取所述控制信令分级信息。
当在步骤22中，确定下行控制信道的检测方式为一级检测时，在步骤23中，终端可以继续从所述第一下行控制信道中读取数据信道检测所需的控制信息。而当在步骤22中，确定下行控制信道的检测方式为多级检测时，在步骤23中，终端从第一下行控制信道中读取下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息。根据所读取的下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，逐级进行下行控制信道的检测，直至获取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
例如，第一下行控制信道中承载的信息，记为DCI_1，作为一种实现方式且作为非限定性示例，DCI_1中包含的信息如下表2所示：
控制信令分级信息(1-bit) 其他字段
表2
例如，当控制信令分级信息(1-bit)取值为0时，表示多级检测。此时，表2中的其他字段为用于指示第一下行控制信道的下一级控制信道检测所需的控制信息。下表3则给出了一种具体示例，在表3中，CONTROL 2表示第 一下行控制信道的下一级控制信道。
Figure PCTCN2017108616-appb-000002
表3
其中，上述其他字段中的信息可以按照某种组合方式编成一张索引表，通过指示索引值的检测方式达到同样的上述效果。下表4给出了一种具体示例。
索引 子帧位置 频域出现的位置 空域出现的位置 子载波的位置
001 xx yy zz ww
002        
......        
016        
表4
例如，当控制信令分级信息(1-bit)取值为1时，表示为一级检测，此时，表2中的其他字段为数据信道检测所需的控制信息，下表5则给出了一种具体示例：
Figure PCTCN2017108616-appb-000003
表5
本实施例中，下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息包括以下信息中的至少 一种：下行控制信道的时域位置、下行控制信道的频域位置、下行控制信道的空域位置、和下行控制信道所在的子载波编号等信息。所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息可以包括以下信息中的至少一种：数据信道的资源位置、数据信道采用的调制编码方式、数据信道对应的混合自动重传(HARQ)进程信息等信息。
本实施例可以直接在第一下行控制信道中进行检测方式的指示，这样，终端可以从第一下行控制信道，检测获取指示下行控制信道的检测方式的控制信令分级信息，从而确定当前的检测方式，由此实现了利用第一下行控制信道直接指示检测方式，可以节约高层信令开销。
第三实施例
请参照图3，本实施例提供的下行控制信道的检测方法，可应用于终端侧。如图3所示，该检测方法包括：
步骤31，根据预先接收到的高层控制信令，确定下行控制信道的检测方式。
这里，所述高层控制信令包括无线资源控制层(RRC，Radio Resource Control)信令或者媒体接入控制(MAC，MediaAccess Control)层消息。网络侧设备，如基站，预先通过上述高层控制信令，向终端指示具体的下行控制信道的检测方式。例如，通信系统中增加一种MAC层消息实体，该消息实体包含1-bit信息，网络侧设备向终端发送该MAC层消息实体的消息，用于开启或者关闭终端的多级检测对应的功能。终端根据该消息，若需要开启多级检测对应的功能，则确定下行控制信道的检测方式为多级检测，反之则为一级检测。又例如，还可以在RRC层增加一种RRC信令，该信令包含1-bit指示，用于开启或者关闭终端的多级检测对应的功能。终端根据该RRC信令，若需要开启多级检测对应的功能，则确定下行控制信道的检测方式为多级检测，反之则为一级检测。
步骤32，根据所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式，进行下行控制信道的检测。
本实施例中，当所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式为一级检测时，可以通过盲检测方式或者根据预先获取的物理层信令或者高层控制信令，检测到 第一下行控制信道，从检测到的第一下行控制信道中读取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。本实施例也可以由网络预先通过物理层信令或者高层控制信令，向终端指示第一下行控制信道的位置，这样终端根据上述物理层信令或者高层控制信令，检测到第一下行控制信道。在检测到第一下行控制信道后，终端可以从该第一下行控制信道上读取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
本实施例中，当所确定的下行控制信道的检测方式为多级检测时，可以通过盲检测方式或者根据预先获取的物理层信令或者高层控制信令，检测到第一下行控制信道，并从第一下行控制信道上读取下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息。根据读取的下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，逐级进行下行控制信道的检测，直至获取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。也就是说，终端根据从上一级下行控制信道上获取的下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，逐级进行下行控制信道的检测，直至获取所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
本实施例中，下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息包括以下信息中的至少一种：下行控制信道的时域位置、下行控制信道的频域位置、下行控制信道的空域位置、和下行控制信道所在的子载波编号等信息。所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息可以包括以下信息中的至少一种：数据信道的资源位置、数据信道采用的调制编码方式、数据信道对应的混合自动重传(HARQ)进程信息等信息。
本实施例通过高层控制信令，向终端指示下行控制信道的检测方式，可以降低第一下行控制信道的检测复杂度，降低终端实现的复杂度。另外，本公开文本实施例使得网络可以根据需要，调整终端采用一级检测或多级检测，可以兼顾降低终端功耗的多级检测方式和降低检测复杂度的需求。

步骤41，选择下行控制信道的发送方式。
这里，所述下行控制信道的发送方式包括一级发送和多级发送，一级发 送为通过发送一次下行控制信道提供数据信道检测所需的控制信息的发送方式，所述多级发送是通过发送多次下行控制信道提供数据信道检测所需的控制信息的发送方式。也就是说，所述一级发送是指只需要发送一次下行控制信道即可提供数据信道检测所需的控制信息，所述多级发送是指需要发送多次下行控制信道才能提供数据信道检测所需的控制信息。网络侧设备，如基站，可以根据需要，自行选择某个终端的下行控制信道的发送方式，例如，选择一级发送或多级发送。
步骤42，根据所选择的下行控制信道的发送方式，进行下行控制信道的发送。
本实施例中，当所选择的下行控制信道的发送方式为一级发送时，可以在第一控制信道上发送数据信道检测所需的控制信息。当所选择的下行控制信道的发送方式为多级发送时，可以在最后一级之前的每一级下行控制信道上发送该每一级下行控制信道的下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，以及，在最后一级下行控制信道上发送数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
这里，下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息包括以下信息中的至少一种：下行控制信道的时域位置、下行控制信道的频域位置、下行控制信道的空域位置、和下行控制信道所在的子载波编号等信息。所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息可以包括以下信息中的至少一种：数据信道的资源位置、数据信道采用的调制编码方式、数据信道对应的混合自动重传(HARQ)进程信息等信息。
通过以上步骤，本实施例实现了基站选择一种下行控制信道的发送方式，进而根据该发送方式向终端发送下行控制信道的控制信息。由此，基站可以支持下行控制信道的多种发送方式。对应的，终端能够支持下行控制信道的多种检测方式，如前文实施例中的一级检测和多级检测，从而为自适应调整下行控制信道检测方式提供技术支持，可以兼顾降低终端功耗的多级检测方式和降低检测复杂度的需求。
第五实施例

步骤52，当所选择的下行控制信道的发送方式为一级发送时，在第一控制信道上发送用于指示采用一级发送的发送方式的信令分级信息以及数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
步骤53，当所选择的下行控制信道的发送方式为多级发送时，在第一控制信道上发送用于指示采用多级发送方式的信令分级信息。在最后一级之前的第一控制信道上发送下一级下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息，在最后一级下行控制信道上发送数据信道检测所需的控制信息。
这里，下行控制信道检测所需的控制信息包括以下信息中的至少一种：下行控制信道的时域位置、下行控制信道的频域位置、下行控制信道的空域位置、和下行控制信道所在的子载波编号等信息。所述数据信道检测所需的控制信息可以包括以下信息中的至少一种：数据信道的资源位置、数据信道采用的调制编码方式、数据信道对应的混合自动重传(HARQ)进程信息等信息。
本实施例中，基站还可以预先向所述终端发送用于指示第一下行控制信道的资源位置的物理层信令或高层控制信令，以降低终端进行第一下行控制信道检测的复杂度。当然，基站也可以不发送上述物理层信令或高层控制信令，此时终端可以通过盲检测，检测到第一下行控制信道。
本实施例中，当所选择的下行控制信道的发送方式为多级发送时，每级下行控制信道上发送的控制消息的长度可能并不相等。本实施例可以对下行控制信道上发送的控制消息进行补零操作，或，对下行控制信道上发送的控制消息进行压缩操作，其中，经过所述补零操作或压缩操作后的各个控制消息的长度均相同，这样可以减少终端进行控制消息检测的复杂度。
例如，对于补零操作，本实施例可以确定各级下行控制信道的控制消息的最大长度。根据所述最大长度，对长度小于所述最大长度的控制消息进行补零操作，获取补零操作后的控制消息。这样，经过上述补零操作，各个控制消息的长度均相同。
又例如，对于压缩操作，本实施例可以根据各级下行控制信道的控制消息的长度，确定出一个最终长度。根据所述最终长度，将对长度大于所述最终长度的控制消息中的预定字段丢弃，得到压缩后的控制消息。通过高层控制信令，将丢弃的所述预定字段发送给所述终端。具体的，上述最终长度可以选择各级下行控制信道的控制消息的最小长度。上述高层控制信令可以是RRC信令或MAC层消息。
本公开文本实施例中网络侧设备通过第一下行控制信道承载的信令分级信息指示一级发送或多级发送，可以减少发送方式指示所需要的高层信令开销。同时，本公开文本实施例中网络侧设备能够控制终端调整下行控制信道的检测方式，进行一级检测或多级检测，从而能够为自适应调整下行控制信道检测方式提供技术支持，以兼顾降低终端功耗的多级检测方式和降低检测复杂度的需求。

最后，为了帮助理解本公开文本实施例的多级检测的检测方案，在下文中将以多级检测中的两次检测为例，对多级检测的实现进行说明。
如图16所示，本公开文本的实施例提供了一种下行控制信道的检测方法，该方法具体包括：
步骤1601：在第一下行控制信道中，检测网络侧设备发送的物理层指示信息。
其中，第一下行控制信道可以是物理下行控制信道或物理下行共享信道。物理层指示信息指的是物理层控制信令，用于指示承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息；采用物理层控制信令的方式可在一定程度上降低终端的检测复杂度，节省终端的处理资源。
步骤1602：根据该物理层指示信息，确定承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息。
终端在检测第一下行控制信道得到物理层指示信息时，通过解析该物理层指示信息，可确定网络侧设备针对终端下发的控制信息所调度第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息。
步骤1603：根据该资源位置信息，在第二下行控制信道中检测控制信息。
终端通过解析接收到的物理层指示信息，能够获知对应的资源位信息，对该资源位置信息对应的第二下行控制信道进行检测，这样仅对承载有控制信息的下行控制信道进行检测，而无需对所有下行控制信道进行检测，可减少终端的检测次数，降低终端能耗。
本公开文本实施例的终端通过检测第一下行控制信道得到网络侧设备发送的指示信息，再通过解析该指示信息确定承载有下行控制信息的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息，并仅在指示信息中指示的第二下行控制信道中检测下行控制信息，减少终端的检测次数，以降低终端的耗电。此外，由于将原在L2/L3进行的非连续传输的配置信令采用物理层指示信息来进行指示，以降低终端的检测复杂度。
第十二实施例
以上第一实施例对本公开文本的下行控制信道的检测方法进行了简单介绍，下面本实施例将结合附图和具体应用场景对其进行进一步地说明。
如图17所示，本公开文本实施例中的下行控制信道的检测方法，具体包括以下步骤：
步骤1701：在第一下行控制信道中，检测终端所在本小区或本小区的邻小区所属网络侧设备发送的物理层指示信息。
这里指的是：不同小区、扇区或组可以有各自的物理层指示信息，亦可以共享同一物理层指示信息，共享场景一般适用于邻近小区的共享。例如：终端对第一下行控制信道进行检测，得到的本小区所属网络侧设备下发的物理层指示信息，该物理层指示信息用于指示本小区的承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息；或者，终端在对第一下行控制信道进行检测，得到的邻小区所属网络侧设备下发的物理层指示信息，而邻小区与本小区共享同一物理指示信息，那么根据接收到的邻小区所述网络侧设备发送的物理层指示信息亦可获知本小区的承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息。
进一步地，该步骤1701具体可参照以下方式实现：获取网络侧设备发送的高层控制信令；根据该高层控制信令，确定物理层指示信息的发送周期及偏移量；根据发送周期及偏移量，确定承载有物理层指示信息的下行控制信道的子帧编号；在对应子帧编号的下行控制信道中检测网络侧设备发送的物理层指示信息。
具体地，根据发送周期及偏移量，确定承载有物理层指示信息的下行控制信道的子帧编号的步骤，具体为：根据公式idx mod T＝offset，确定承载有物理层指示信息的下行控制信道的子帧编号。
其中，idx为承载有物理层指示信息的下行控制信道的子帧编号，T为指示信息的发送周期，offset为发送指示信息的偏移量；即T和offset由高层信令通知，mod是取余数操作，也就是说子帧编号idx＝N*T+offset，只有idx满足上述关系式的子帧才有可能承载下行控制信道。如图18和图19所示，终端通过解析高层控制信令，获知物理层指示信息的发送周期为8个子帧，偏移量为0，即终端在编号为8的整数倍-1(子帧编号从0开始)的子帧检测是否有物理层指示信息。其中，如图18所示，在第一周期内检测到的物理层指示信息指示承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道数量有三个(N＝3)，具体资 源位置如箭头所示；第二周期内检测到的物理层指示信息指示承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道数量有六个(N＝6)，具体资源位置如箭头所示；第三周期内检测到的物理层指示信息指示承载有控制信息的第二下行控制信道数量有四个(N＝4)，具体资源位置如箭头所示。图19的检测和指示方式与图18基本相同，故不再赘述。
进一步地，在对应子帧编号的下行控制信道中检测网络侧设备发送的物理层指示信息的步骤之后，还包括：若终端未检测到物理层指示信息，则向网络侧设备反馈一非应答消息(NACK消息)；或者，确定对应编号的下行控制信道中未承载物理层指示信息。也就是说终端对于检测物理层指示信息有两张处理方式，一种是发送确认方式，一种是发送无确认方式。
发送确认方式指的是，终端首先根据高层信令配置进行周期性检测，例如：终端根据高层信令获知物理层指示信息的发送周期为T、偏移量为offset，终端在子帧编号满足idx mod T＝offset关系式的子帧内检测物理指示层信息。如果终端在上述子帧编号对应的子帧内没有检测到物理层指示信息，则发送NACK给网络侧设备以告知错误信息。
发送无确认方式指的是，终端首先根据高层信令配置进行周期性检测，例如：终端根据高层信令获知物理层指示信息的发送的周期为T、偏移量为offset，终端在子帧编号满足idx mod T＝offset关系式的子帧内检测物理层指示信息。如果终端在上述子帧编号对应的子帧内没有检测到物理层指示信息，则终端认为在该子帧内没有需要检测的控制消息(也不需要给与网络发送NACK报告)。
值得指出的是，终端通过对第一下行控制信道检测以得到物理层指示的信息的具体实现除了上述利用高层信令配置方式得到外，终端还可通过盲检或先验物理层等方式实现，具体实现方式并不做限定。此外，需要说明的是，所有适用于步骤1701实现的方式，亦适用于第一实施例中的步骤1601的实现。
步骤1702：提取物理层指示信息得到承载有控制信息的第一下行控制信道的第一索引值。
其中，物理层指示信息可承载至预先定义的特殊字段进行指示，特殊字 段的不同取值指示不同的资源位置，索引值可以是特殊字段的取值，亦可以是与特殊字段取值具有一定映射关系的编码。
步骤1703：根据预设的索引值与资源位置之间的对应关系，确定第一索引值对应的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息。
其中，第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息包括：第二下行控制信道所在的下行子帧编号、频域位置、空域位置和载波编号中的至少一项。进一步地，为了缩短索引值所占的字节数，可将这些特殊字段的可能取值按照某种组合方式编成一张索引表。如下表6所示，该索引表为索引值与指示资源位置的特殊字段的可能取值之间的对应关系，特殊字段的取值不同所对应的资源位置不同，那么只需解析物理层指示信息的索引值，即可通过查表方式得到对应的下行控制信道的资源位置。
索引值 子帧编号xx 频域位置yy 空域位置zz 载波编号ww
001 xx1 yy1 zz1 ww1
002 xx2 yy2 zz2 ww2
...... xx... yy... zz... ww...
016 xx16 yy16 zz16 ww16
表6
其中，索引值为与特殊字段取值具有一定映射关系的编码，字段xx为子帧编号的指示字段，字段yy为频域位置的指示字段，字段zz为空域位置的指示字段，字段ww为载波编号的指示字段。这里，通过查表方式可找到第一索引值对应的指示字段的取值信息，那么就可根据指示字段的具体取值获知具体的资源位置。
步骤1704：根据资源位置信息，在第二下行控制信道中检测控制信息。
其中，控制信息包括承载有业务数据的传输信道所占用的资源位置信息，如时频域分配、MCS等等。为了进一步简化终端的检测复杂度，网络侧设备发送的控制信息亦可承载至物理层信令中发送，即控制信息具体为物理层控制信息。
进一步地，上述物理层指示信息既可指示同载波内传输的控制信息，亦 可以指示与该物理层指示信息不同载波内传输的控制信息。即网络侧设备发送的物理层指示信息和控制信息可在单载波内传输(如图18所示)，亦可在多载波内传输(如图19所示，指示信息在载波1中传输，控制信息在载波2内传输)。
这样，如图20所示，终端通过两次检测控制信令，以检测与己相关的控制信息的步骤具体为：
步骤2001：终端在承载第一控制信道信息的载波上接收和检测第一控制信道信息。检测方法可终端可以根据终端盲检测或者基于先验的物理层或者高层信令配置。
步骤2002：终端读取第一控制信道中给出的资源分配信息。如第二控制信道的时域出现位置、或者频域出现位置、或者波束信息、或者载波编号等。
步骤2003：终端根据上一步骤读取的信息检测第二控制信道信息。检测过程中可能结合其他有效的信息。
步骤2004：终端根据第二控制信道检测的结果，获知其数据信道传输的位置。如时间位置、或者频域位置、或者调制与编码策略(MCS，Modulationand Coding Scheme)、或者HARQ进程等等。这样，终端通过盲检测、先验物理层或解析高层控制信令以获知物理层指示信息对应的下行控制信道，检测该下行控制信道获得物理层指示信息，并根据该物理层指示信息，对该资源位置信息对应的第二下行控制信道进行检测，以得到对应的控制信息，以减少终端的检测次数，降低终端能耗。
本公开文本实施例的终端通过检测第一下行控制信道得到网络侧设备发送的指示信息，再通过解析该指示信息确定承载有下行控制信息的第二下行控制信道的资源位置信息，并仅在指示信息中指示的第二下行控制信道中检测下行控制信息，减少终端的检测次数，以降低终端的耗电。此外，由于将原在L2/L3进行的非连续传输的配置信令采用物理层指示信息来进行指示，以降低终端的检测复杂度。
