用于无线通信系统的电子设备、方法和存储介质 技术领域
本公开一般地涉及无线通信系统，并且具体地涉及用于资源配置、资源接入和发送控制的技术。
背景技术
近年来，移动通信技术的应用日益广泛，与之俱来的是对移动数据需求的不断增长。该需求促使人们寻求能够提高移动数据速率以及吞吐量的各种改进技术。移动通信传统地是在授权频段工作，移动运营商试图通过将移动通信扩展到非授权频段来将一部分移动数据需求卸载到非授权频段。相关的改进技术包括3GPP LAA(License Assisted Access)、FeLAA(Further Enhanced LAA)以及5G New Radio(NR)系统中的相关技术等。然而，非授权频段原本已被一些无线通信设备使用，包括符合802.11系列标准的设备。因此，在上述改进技术中，需要考虑蜂窝无线通信设备与非授权频段中的原有无线通信设备的共存问题。

本公开的再一个方面涉及各种装置，包括用于执行根据本公开实施例的各方法的操作的部件或单元。
提供上述概述是为了总结一些示例性的实施例，以提供对本文所描述的主题的各方面的基本理解。因此，上述特征仅仅是例子并且不应该被解释为以任何方式缩小本文所描述的主题的范围或精神。本文所描述的主题的其他特征、方面和优点将从以下结合附图描述的具体实施方式而变得明晰。

具体实施方式
以下描述根据本公开的设备和方法等各方面的代表性应用。这些例子的描述仅是为了增加上下文并帮助理解所描述的实施例。因此，对本领域技术人员而言明晰的是，以下所描述的实施例可以在没有具体细节当中的一些或全部的情况下被实施。在其他情况下，众所周知的过程步骤没有详细描述，以避免不必要地模糊所描述的实施例。其他应用也是可能的，本公开的方案并不限制于这些示例。
图1示出了根据本公开实施例的示例性无线通信系统100。应理解，图1仅示出无线通信系统的多种类型和可能布置中的一种；本公开的特征可根据需要在各种系统中的任一者中实现。
如图1所示，无线通信系统100包括基站120A以及一个或多个终端110A、110B至110N，该基站和终端可以被配置为通过传输介质进行通信。基站120A可以还被配备为与网络130(例如，蜂窝服务提供方的核心网、诸如公共交换电话网(PSTN)的电信网络和/或互联网)进行通信。因此，基站120A可以便于终端110A至110N之间和/或终端110A至110N与网络130之间的通信。
应理解，在本文中基站一词具有其通常含义的全部广度，并且至少包括作为无线通信系统或无线电系统的一部分以便于通信的无线通信站。基站的示例可以包括但不限于以下：GSM系统中的基站收发信机(BTS)和基站控制器(BSC)中的至少一者；WCDMA系统中的无线电网络控制器(RNC)和Node B中的至少一者；LTE和LTE- Advanced系统中的eNB；WLAN、WiMAX系统中的接入点(AP)；以及将要或正在开发的通信系统中对应的网络节点(例如5G New Radio(NR)系统中的gNB，eLTE eNB等)。本文中基站的部分功能也可以实现为在D2D、M2M以及V2V通信场景下对通信具有控制功能的实体，或者实现为在认知无线电通信场景下起频谱协调作用的实体。
在本文中终端一词具有其通常含义的全部广度，例如终端可以为移动站(Mobile Station，MS)、用户设备(User Equipment，UE)等。终端可以实现为诸如移动电话、手持式设备、媒体播放器、计算机、膝上型电脑或平板电脑的设备或者几乎任何类型的无线设备。在一些情况下，终端可以使用多种无线通信技术进行通信。例如，终端可以被配置为使用GSM、UMTS、CDMA2000、WiMAX、LTE、LTE-A、WLAN、NR、蓝牙等中的两者或更多者进行通信。在一些情况下，终端也可以被配置为仅使用一种无线通信技术进行通信。
在图1中，基站120A的覆盖区域可以被称为小区。根据一种或多种蜂窝通信技术进行操作的基站120A和其他类似基站(未示出)可以在广阔的地理区域上向终端110A至110N以及类似设备提供连续或近似连续的通信信号覆盖。在图1中，终端110A至110N可以在接收来自基站120A的无线电信号的同时，接收来自相邻基站的无线电信号。在一些实施例中，终端可以维护与多个小区的连接，例如与主基站和辅基站形成双连接(Dual Connectivity)。这多个小区中的一个小区可以作为终端的主小区，另一个小区可以作为终端的辅小区。在一个实施例中，一些辅小区可以在非授权频段工作。
在本公开的实施例中，基站和终端可以通过授权频段(licensed spectrum)和非授权频段(unlicensed spectrum)这两者进行通信。授权频段和非授权频段可以遵循行业标准的定义或者遵循地域的频率管理规定。对于授权频段和非授权频段，基站都可以分配上下行链路的时域和频域资源。一般地，频域资源可以是连续或分开的子载波；在非授权频段，频域资源还可以对应一定的带宽块(bandwidth part)。时域资源可以对应一定的时间段，例如可以是一定数量的符号、时隙或者子帧。在一些实施例中，时域资源的分配可以涉及指示时间段的起点、终端以及附加的偏移点。附加的偏移点可以在时域上增加资源分配的灵活性。
在本公开的实施例中，可以改变传输块的发送方案以使得同一传输块被重复(repetition)发送多次。该发送方案可以在较短的时间内完成单个传输块的多次发送和接收，使得传输块能够更快地(例如相比于一般的混合自动重传请求(HARQ)处理而言)被正确接收解码。在非授权频段中，通信设备的信道占用时间(Channel Occupancy  Time，COT)一般而言有限，例如受限于最大值MCOT。因此，该发送方案对于非授权频段中的有限COT而言是非常有用的。
在本公开的实施例中，基站和终端之间可以通过高层信令(例如无线电资源控制(RRC)信令)和物理层信令(例如NR系统中的下行链路控制信息DCI、上行链路控制信息UCI)中的至少一者进行信令交互(例如进行资源配置等)。
资源配置与资源接入
图2A示出了根据本公开实施例的用于基站侧的示例性电子设备，其中该基站可以用于各种无线通信系统。图2A所示的电子设备200可以包括各种单元以实现根据本公开的各实施例。在该示例中，电子设备200可以包括第一资源配置单元202和第一收发单元204。在一种实施方式中，电子设备200可被实现为图1中的基站120A(或其一部分)，或者可被实现为用于控制基站120A或与基站120A相关的设备(例如控制器，或其一部分)。以下结合基站描述的各种操作可以由电子设备200的单元202和204或者其他可能的单元实现。
在一些实施例中，第一资源配置单元202可以被配置为确定用于上下行链路的资源配置信息。该资源配置信息可以用于授权频段和非授权频段中的至少一者。例如，资源配置信息可以指示在授权频段或非授权频段中分配的资源以供终端进行上行链路传输；资源配置信息还可以指示在授权频段或非授权频段中分配的资源以供基站进行下行链路传输。在一些实施例中，资源可以包括一个或多个资源，资源配置信息可以包括指示该一个或多个资源的位置的一个或多个偏移点。该偏移点可以指示资源在频域和/或时域的偏移情况。在实施例中，单个资源可以对应多个偏移点，多个资源可以对应同一偏移点，多个资源中的至少一个资源可以对应一个或多个偏移点。其中多个偏移点可根据资源的配置以及其它需求设置成相同或不同。
在一些实施例中，资源对应一个或多个时间段，其中至少一个时间段具有起点和终点。除了起点和终点之外，资源配置信息还可以指示相对于时间段的起点的一个或多个偏移点，如下文详细描述的。
在一些实施例中，第一收发单元204可以被配置为向终端发送上行链路的资源配置信息(例如通过RRC信令和物理层信令中的至少一者)。下行链路的资源配置信息一经确定就可以被基站知晓。
图2B示出了根据本公开实施例的用于终端侧的示例性电子设备，其中该终端可以用于各种无线通信系统。图2B所示的电子设备250可以包括各种单元以实现根据本公开 的各实施例。在该示例中，电子设备250可以包括第二资源配置单元252和第二收发单元254。在一种实施方式中，电子设备250可被实现为图1中的终端设备110A至110N中任一个(或其一部分)。以下结合终端描述的各种操作可以由电子设备250的单元252和254或者其他可能的单元实现。
在一些实施例中，第二收发单元254可以被配置为接收来自基站的上行链路的资源配置信息(例如通过RRC信令和物理层信令中的至少一者)。该资源配置信息可以指示在授权频段或非授权频段中分配的资源以供终端进行上行链路传输。该资源可以对应一个或多个时间段，其中至少一个时间段具有起点和终点。除了起点和终点之外，资源配置信息还可以指示相对于时间段的起点的一个或多个偏移点。相应地，第二资源配置单元252可以被配置为基于资源配置信息确定要使用的上行链路资源。
上述各个单元仅是根据其所实现的具体功能划分的逻辑模块，而不是用于限制具体的实现方式，例如可以以软件、硬件或者软硬件结合的方式来实现。在实际实现时，上述各个单元可被实现为独立的物理实体，或者也可由单个实体(例如，处理器(CPU或DSP等)、集成电路等)来实现。其中，处理电路可以指在计算系统中执行功能的数字电路系统、模拟电路系统或混合信号(模拟和数字的组合)电路系统的各种实现。处理电路可以包括例如诸如集成电路(IC)、专用集成电路(ASIC)这样的电路、单独处理器核心的部分或电路、整个处理器核心、单独的处理器、诸如现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)的可编程硬件设备、和/或包括多个处理器的系统。
在无线通信系统中，存在配置时频资源的多种可行方式。根据在一定时间期间所配置的资源是否变化，资源配置方式可以包括例如已知的动态配置、持续性配置以及半持续性配置等。在本公开的实施例中，资源可以对应一个或多个时间段，其中至少一个时间段具有起点和终点。该起点和终点限定了终端和/或基站可以使用相应资源的时间范围，在起点和终点已被确定的情况下，资源的时间范围即被确定。在一些实施例中，可以对资源的时间范围赋予自适应性，从而增加资源配置在时域上的灵活性。在一个实施例中，除了时间段的起点和终点之外，还可以配置相对于起点的一个或多个偏移点。例如，资源配置信息可以通过相对于起点或特定参考时间的偏移时间量来指示所述一个或多个偏移点。这样，在终端和/或基站尝试接入信道时，可以根据信道是否被占用而自适应地在起点或偏移点处接入信道。
图3A示出了根据本公开实施例的示例性资源配置方案300。在实施例中，可以在上行链路和/或下行链路中使用该配置方案；可以在授权频段和/或非授权频段中使用该配 置方案。在图3A以及接下来的类似图中，仅示出了时频资源在时域的配置情况，本领域技术人员可以使用任何适当的方式进行频域配置。如图3A所示，窗口301可以表示分配的时域资源301，也即分配的时频资源对应的时间段301，时间段301具有起点A和终点B。附加地，时间段301还具有2个偏移点C和D(2个偏移点仅是示例，可以具有其他数目的偏移点)。在一些实施方式中，可以用相应点的相对于参考时间的偏移情况(例如偏移的子帧量、时隙量、符号量等)来表示起点、终点和偏移点。在一个实施例中，也可以用时间段的持续时间来隐式地指示终点。如果终端或基站期望使用资源301，则可以作为发起设备在起点A和偏移点C、D中的至少一个之前进行CCA(如图3A中虚线所示)，以便确定是否可以在相应点处接入工作信道。在实施例中，信道空闲评估(Clear Channel Assessment，CCA)可以对应于NR系统中的类型2(Type 2)先听后说(Listen Before Talk,LBT)(例如one-shot LBT)或类型4(Type 4)LBT。
在图3A中，相比于仅具有起点A，偏移点C、D的存在可以使得发起设备更灵活并且更有效地利用所配置的资源。例如，在一个实施例中，虽然已经配置了资源的时间段301，但是在起点A(或者偏移点C)处发起设备可能未准备好传输或者CCA不成功，则发起设备仍可能在之后的偏移点C、D(或者偏移点D)处接入工作信道并在301的剩余时间段期间使用分配的资源。图3B示出了资源配置方案300的使用示例。在该示例中，发起设备(终端或基站)期望在起点A处接入工作信道，并在A点之前进行CCA(如实线所示)。然而，该CCA不成功，发起设备未能在起点A处接入工作信道。之后，发起设备在接下来的偏移点C之前再次进行CCA(如实线所示)。该CCA成功，因此发起设备可以在偏移点C处接入工作信道(尽管在起点A处未能接入)。与因为在起点A处未能接入工作信道便放弃使用整个时间段301相比，资源配置方案300和相应的使用方式显然是更灵活并且高效的。另一方面，在一些实施例中，偏移点可以仅安排在时间段301的有限位置处。这样，CCA仅可以在有限位置处进行(而不是在整个时间段301内持续进行)，从而节省发起设备的功率消耗。
在图3B的示例中，时间段301的终点B可以是固定的，或者可以是可变的(例如基于接入工作信道的时间点)。例如，由于在起点A前的CCA不成功使得发起设备晚于起点A接入工作信道，因此可以使终点B相应推后为B'以对“晚接入”进行适当补偿，例如补偿时间段311。
图3A中的资源配置方案300可以对应于一次静态配置，也可以对应于持续性或半持续性配置的一部分(例如一个周期)。图3C示出了根据本公开实施例的示例性资源配 置方案350。资源配置方案350示出了持续性或半持续性配置的一个具体示例。在图3C的示例中，已经配置了资源的多个时间段351至353。可以与图3A中的时间段301类似地理解每个时间段351至353。例如，每个间段具有起点和终点以及偏移点。此外，在图3C中，多个时间段351至353可以被配置为具有例如周期T。
图3D示出了资源配置方案350的使用示例。可以与图3B类似地理解该示例中每个时间段的信道接入情况。例如，对于时间段351，发起设备(终端或基站)进行了2次CCA，并在第1个偏移点处接入工作信道。可选地，可以对时间段351补偿相应的时间段361(例如等于第1个偏移点与起点的偏移量)。对于时间段362，发起设备进行了3次CCA，并在第2个偏移点处接入工作信道。可选地，可以对时间段352补偿相应的时间段362(例如等于第2个偏移点与起点的偏移量)。对于时间段363，发起设备仅进行了1次CCA，并在起点处接入工作信道。与资源配置方案300类似，资源配置方案350和相应的使用方式也是更灵活并且高效的。
应理解，单个时间段中偏移点的数量可以不受限制，例如2个、3个、4个等。这些偏移点可以分布在整个时间段期间，也可以仅分布在时间段的靠前部分中。在一个实施例中，这些偏移点是分散的，使得发起设备不会在COT期间持续监听信道。
根据本公开实施例的资源配置方式可以用任何适当的方式来表示。例如，可以以绝对方式或相对方式来表示与时间段相关的各个点。根据一种方式，可以用相应点的实际时域位置(例如子帧、时隙、符号等)来表示起点、终点和偏移点，例如图3A中的n、m、n1和n2。根据另一种方式，可以用相应点的相对于参考时间(例如SFN＝0、终端接收到特定信令(例如上行调度信息)时的时隙或符号位置等)的偏移情况(例如偏移的子帧量、时隙量、符号量等)来表示起点、终点和偏移点。在一些情况下，终点和/或偏移点也可以用相对于起点的时域偏移来表示。
下表示出了资源配置300的示例指示方式。如表格所示，在示例1中，起点、终点和偏移点均用相对于参考时间tr的偏移量(offset0至offset3)表示。在示例2中，起点仍然用相对于参考时间tr的偏移量(offset0)表示，而用分别相对于起点的偏移量(offset11至offset31)来表示终点和偏移点。示例3与示例2的不同之处在于，在示例3中，定义了单位偏移量delta，每个偏移点被表示为相对于起点偏移delta的整数倍。可以类似地表示资源配置350。每个时间段351至353可以与时间段301类似地表示。在一个实施例中，对于多个时间段351至353，可以通过偏移信息仅限定偏移点的个数和偏移情况，并且该偏移信息对于所有时间段均适用。在一些情况下，不同时间段的偏移信息 也可以不同。

  示例1 示例2 示例3
起点A n＝tr+offset0 n＝tr+offset0 n＝tr+offset0
终点B m＝tr+offset1 m＝n+offset10 m＝n+offset10
偏移点C n1＝tr+offset2 n1＝n+offset20 n1＝n+delta
偏移点D n2＝tr+offset3 n2＝n+offset30 n1＝n+2×delta
在本公开的实施例中，在下行链路中，基站自身知晓资源配置情况；在上行链路中，基站可以通过高层信令(例如RRC信令)和物理层信令(例如NR DCI)中的至少一者向终端传递资源配置信息。在一些实施例中，可以仅通过高层信令传递资源配置中与时间段相关的全部信息，包括起点、终点和偏移点。此时，在需要进行初始配置和重新配置(例如重新配置起点、终点或偏移点中的任一者)时，均需要传递高层信令。在一个实施例中，还可以通过物理层信令激活偏移点。即在通过高层信令配置了时间段的偏移点的情况下，偏移点不会自动启用。只有在通过物理层信令激活的情况下，偏移点才被启用。在另一些实施例中，可以通过高层信令传递资源配置中的与时间段相关的起点和终点，通过物理层信令传递与时间段相关的偏移点。由于物理层信令能够快速传递，因此通过其传递偏移点信息，可以更灵活地配置和更新时间段的偏移点。此时，高层信令可以负责时间段的起点和终点的初始配置和重新配置；物理层信令可以负责时间段的偏移点的初始配置和重新配置。在还有的一些实施例中，可以仅通过物理层信令传递时间段的起点、终点和偏移点信息。在一些情况下，在遵循上述实施例中的信令使用方式的同时，仍然可以通过高层信令配置资源的使用周期、传输功率等基础参数。
符合不同无线通信标准的多种类型的通信设备均可以使用非授权频段进行通信。例如，这些通信设备可以包括LTE或NR系统中的eNB、gNB、UE以及WLAN系统中的AP和MS等。就使用非授权频段中的信道而言，不同系统中的通信设备之间会存在竞争。在一些情况下，基站和终端可以仅根据自身通信需求以与在授权频段中类似的方式接入非授权信道(下文也称工作信道)。在一些情况下，为了使非授权频段中的大部分通信设备能够以公平的方式使用非授权信道，基站和终端可以在接入工作信道之前对信道进行监听(例如，通过LBT方式)，并且在确定信道可能空闲的情况下接入工作信道。
在LBT方式中，先向对方发送消息的设备可以称为发起设备，相应的对方可以称 为响应设备。例如，如果基站首先发送下行链路消息，则该基站为发起设备，相应的终端为响应设备；可以类似地理解相反的情况。对于基站/终端作为发起设备或响应设备的情况，本公开中描述的LBT过程均可以适用。
图4A和图4B示出了根据本公开实施例的示例性LBT过程。在图4A中，存在固定的帧周期，该固定的帧周期包括信道占用时间COT和空闲时段。如已知的，此类LBT可以称为基于帧的设备(Frame-Based Equipment，FBE)LBT。如果终端或基站期望在COT期间使用工作信道，则其可以作为发起设备进行LBT过程。例如，发起设备可以在与COT相邻的在前空闲时段期间监听工作信道(如图4A中实线CCA所指示的)，并在确定工作信道未被占用的情况下，在该COT期间使用工作信道。确定信道是否被占用的一个示例可以称为信道空闲评估CCA，其可以基于在工作信道上监听到的信号能量或功率情况。例如，在监听到的信号能量或功率低于特定阈值的情况下，可以认为工作信道未被占用(或称是空闲的，此时CCA成功)。在一些实施例中，如果在COT之前的CCA不成功，则发起设备可以在之后相对于COT的一个或多个偏移点处继续进行CCA(如图4A中虚线CCA所指示的)。
在图4A中，在空闲时段期间进行信道监听，如果在COT之前有CCA指示信道空闲，则发起设备可以在该COT期间使用工作信道，直到该COT结束。在该COT结束后，该设备将停止使用工作信道。此时，如果该设备仍期望使用工作信道，则必须在空闲时间再次进行CCA。在一些实施例中，上述监听过程可以通过one-shot LBT进行。一个简单的one-shot LBT对应25微秒的时间。具体地，16微秒加上一个或多个9微秒的时段组合构成所谓的one-shot。在一些情况下，可以进行更加复杂的LBT过程，例如NR系统中的Type 4LBT(包含竞争窗口和随机退避计数器)。
在图4B中，不存在固定的帧周期，但是COT和空闲时段仍然在时域交替出现。如已知的，此类LBT可以称为基于负载的设备(Load-Based Equipment，LBE)LBT。在LBE LBT中，COT是由发起设备的通信负荷驱动的，发起设备的传输需求导致COT的出现。而且，COT的时长取决于传输量，只要COT不超出允许的最大值MCOT。如果在MCOT后传输需求仍然存在，则可以在空闲时段后驱动下一个COT。与图4A中不同，在LBE LBT中，由于COT的出现在时域中不是固定的，因此发起设备可以只要在需要进行传输时就监听工作信道进行CCA，并在CCA成功的情况下使用工作信道，直到传输结束或者达到MCOT为止。在图4B的示例中也可以使用图4A中的信道监听方式，此处不再重复。
在COT期间，发起设备可以使用工作信道的前提是已经为发起设备分配的相应的资源。在该前提下，只要可以在COT到来前排除信道被占用(可能由于某种原因，例如来自其他通信系统的占用)的可能，发起设备就可以使用已分配的资源。在一些实施例中，在COT前的CCA不成功的情况下，允许发起设备可以在COT的一部分或全部期间继续进行CCA，并在CCA成功的情况下在剩余的COT期间使用工作信道。在一些情况下，COT可以根据CCA占用的时间被相应或适当地扩展。在一些实施例中，发起设备还可以与响应设备共享COT。具体地，在发起设备暂时结束传输时，可以与响应设备共享剩余COT。在响应设备结束传输时，发起设备还可以恢复使用工作信道。该共享过程可以以此类推。
在一些实施例中，对于下行链路FBE帧结构(即基站作为发起设备)，在COT期间，基站可以被配置为发送一些固定的信令或信号。这样，一方面，固定的信令或信号可以与固定的COT相匹配；另一方面，在下行链路中，与基站同时接入工作信道的设备较少，基站的CCA更容易成功(确保能够发送这些信令或信号)。因此，在一个实施例中，对于下行链路FBE帧结构，基站可以被配置为在COT期间发送同步信号(例如NR系统中的SS/PBCH)和/或参考信号(例如NR系统中的发现参考信号DRS)。相应地，终端可以被配置为在COT期间接收同步信号和/或参考信号。此时，在基站与终端共享COT的情况下，终端可以在共享的COT期间接入工作信道进行传输。在一个实施例中，终端可以在共享的COT期间仅发送少量数据，例如向基站发送测量报告。相应地，基站可以被配置为在与终端共享COT期间接收来自终端的传输，例如测量报告。
图5示出了根据本公开实施例的用于发起设备接入工作信道的示例性操作流程500。在实施例中，终端可以在上行链路中使用该操作流程，或者基站可以在下行链路中使用该操作流程。在该操作流程500中，对于资源配置中的至少一个时间段，在该时间段的起点之前进行CCA。如果CCA成功，则在该起点处开始使用资源；否则在接着的每个偏移点之前进行CCA，直到在某个偏移点处CCA成功或者已经经过全部偏移点时为止。如图5所示，在流程500开始后，在502处确定是否基于资源配置(例如配置300)使用第一时间段(例如301)的资源。如果确定是，则前进到504；否则流程结束。在504处，在第一时间段的起点之前进行一次或多个CCA，以监听相应信道是否被占用。在506处，可以按照一定的标准确定CCA是否成功。如果CCA成功，则前进到512以在起点处接入工作信道；否则前进到508。在508处，可以在下一个偏移点前进行一次或多次CCA，以监听相应信道是否被占用。在510处，也可以标准确定CCA是否成功。如果成功，则 前进到512以在该偏移点处接入工作信道；否则回到508，并重复508和510的操作，直到在某个偏移点处CCA成功并在该偏移点处接入工作信道，或者直到经过所有的偏移点CCA均未成功从而不使用第一时间段的资源。
在本公开的实施例中，发起设备可以与响应设备共享自身获得的COT，以便在自身暂时不需要传输时使得COT期间的资源能够被响应设备使用，即提高资源的利用效率。图6示出了根据本公开实施例的共享COT示例的示意图。在图6中，发起设备可以通过CCA获得MCOT 600，并在MCOT的起点处开始向响应设备的第一传输602。由于在第一传输602后MCOT仍有剩余，因此发起设备可以在第一传输602内(例如第一传输602的结尾处)向响应设备发送工作信道授权信息，以允许响应设备共享MCOT(也即在MCOT的剩余期间共享相应的资源)。接着，响应设备可以进行向发起设备的第二传输604。在与响应设备共享MCOT后，发起设备仍然可能再次使用MCOT的相应资源。例如，如果在第二传输604后MCOT仍有剩余，则发起设备可以进行向响应设备的第三传输606。而且，如果在第三传输606后MCOT仍有剩余，则发起设备仍可以类似于602中那样与响应设备共享MCOT。在图6中，传输方向(发起设备至响应设备或者响应设备至发起设备)的每次改变也可以称为传输方向转换，转换前后的传输之间往往存在间隙(gap)，如图中603和605所示。接下来将描述在转换(或间隙)期间的具体操作示例。
在一些实施例中，在接收到工作信道授权信息后，如果响应设备可以在来自发起设备的传输结束后的第一时间段内进行传输，则其可以在该第一时间段内的任意时间直接使用工作信道进行到发起设备的传输；否则，如果响应设备要在来自发起设备的传输结束后的第一时间段后才进行传输，则其不得不在第一时间段后针对工作信道进行CCA，并在CCA成功之后才能够使用工作信道进行到发起设备的传输。在图6的示例中，响应设备在间隙603中经历了1次CCA才进行第二传输604，完成一次传输方向转换。一般地，如果转换后待传输的数据量较少(例如控制信息)，则传输方向转换中可以经历较少的CCA，例如1次。
在一些实施例中，在与响应设备共享MCOT并且响应设备已经结束传输时，如果发起设备可以在来自响应设备的传输结束后的第一时间段内进行传输，则其可以在该第一时间段内的任意时间直接使用工作信道进行到响应设备的传输；否则，如果发起设备要在来自响应设备的传输结束后的第一时间段后才进行传输，则其不得不在第一时间段后针对工作信道进行CCA，并在CCA成功之后才能够使用工作信道进行到响应设备的 传输。在图6的示例中，发起设备在间隙605中经历了3次CCA才进行第三传输606，完成传输方向转换。一般地，如果转换后待传输的数据量较多(例如数据业务)，则传输方向转换中可以经历较多的CCA，例如2次以上。
在上述实施例中，在第一时间段后的转换需要进行CCA主要出于公平考量。即如果转换间隙过长，则将转换后的传输视为新产生的对信道的占用，因此需要CCA。在一个实施例中，上述第一时间段的长度可以为16微秒，每个CCA可以为9微秒。例如，针对工作信道进行的CCA可以对应于one-shot先听后说(LBT)。在一个实施例中，在第一时间段后将存在多个CCA，或者可以存在多个one-shot LBT，以便完全填充传输转换中的间隙。one-shot LBT的数量可以与间隙长度和发起设备或响应设备的能力相关。
图7A示出了根据本公开实施例的发起设备在共享COT情况下的示例性操作。在实施例中，发起设备可以是下行链路中的基站，或者是上行链路中的终端。操作700开始后，在701处，发起设备在自己获得的COT期间向响应设备发送工作信道授权。如前所述，可以发生传输方向的转换，响应设备进而可以基于该工作信道授权接入工作信道进行传输。在响应设备传输结束后，在702处，发起设备可以确定是否要重新使用工作信道(例如，基于是否有数据要发送)。在需要重新使用的情况下，在703处，发起设备可以确定是否会在第一时间段(例如16微秒)内传输。如果是，则前进到704。在704处，发起设备可以直接使用工作信道进行传输。否则前进到705。在705处，发起设备可以通过CCA接入工作信道。
图7B示出了根据本公开实施例的响应设备在共享COT情况下的示例性操作。在实施例中，响应设备可以是下行链路中的终端，或者是上行链路中的基站。操作750开始后，在751处，在发起设备的COT期间，响应设备可以接收来自响应设备的工作信道授权。在需要使用工作信道的情况下，响应设备可以在752处确定是否会在第一时间段(例如16微秒)内传输。如果是，则前进到753。在753处，发起设备可以直接使用工作信道进行传输。否则前进到754。在754处，发起设备可以通过CCA接入工作信道。
传输块发送方案——重复发送
在本公开的实施例中，为了提高传输块的发送效率，发送方(例如，下行链路中的基站，上行链路中的终端)可以重复发送单个传输块。具体地，发送方可以自己确定要重复发送单个传输块的次数K，并向接收方通知该重复发送次数K。接着，发送方对单个传输块进行K次发送。如图8A所示，发送方确定并将单个传输块重复发送4次，即802至808共4次发送(其中虚线表示因重复而额外进行的发送)，它们可以在时域上 接近或者紧相邻。接收方可以对单个传输块的K次接收进行合并处理以解码该传输块，从而提高解码成功率。传输块的这K次发送可以完全相同，或者可以具有不同的冗余版本(Redundancy Version,RV)。在后一情况下，发送方还会向接收方通知RV参数信息(该参数信息可以是针对单个传输块的重复发送的重复RV的序列/模式/规则)，以便于接收方进行合并处理(例如软合并)。
在一些情况下，为发送方配置的资源在时域上可能是受限的。例如，在授权频段或非授权频段中，由于用户数量大，为至少一些发送方配置的时域资源可能有限。再例如，在非授权频段中，由于基站、终端与WLAN等非授权频段的其他设备共享该频段，发送方能够获得信道占用时间COT有限，例如被限制为最大值MCOT。这此类情况下，根据实施例的单个传输块的重复发送由于可以在较短的时间内完成(而且接收方更容易正确接收该传输块)，因此可以在受限的时域资源上完成传输块的发送。
在一些实施例中，可以至少基于以下中的一项或多项来确定重复发送次数K，即发送方的信道占用时间COT、发送方电量水平、或发送方到接收方的链路信道状况。例如，在存在COT限制时，发送方可以启用重复发送；以及/或者，在发送方电量水平充足时，发送方可以启用重复发送；以及/或者，在上述链路信道不理想时，发送方可以启用重复发送。
图8A示出了根据本公开实施例的发送方确定并重复发送单个传输块的一个示例。在使用HARQ机制的情况下，这4次发送802至808可以对应于单个传输块的单次HARQ传输的多次重复发送。其中，单次HARQ传输可以是该单个传输块的首次HARQ传输或之后的重传。图8B示出了根据本公开实施例的发送方确定并重复发送HARQ传输的单个进程的示例。在该示例中，重复发送次数K为2。如图8B所示，对于单个传输块，首先以HARQ进程号(或称HARQ ID)＝0的HARQ进程发送该传输块的初传。进一步地，由于重复发送次数K被确定为2，因此可以对上述初传重复发送2次(虚线804表示因重复而额外进行的发送)。此处，发送802和804的HARQ ID均为0，它们可以被理解为ID为0的HARQ进程的多个实例。接收方可以通过信令接收到发送方重复发送次数K的值和每次接收对应的HARQ ID值。接收方可以基于K值和HARQ ID值来对接收进行解码。具体地，在图8B中，可能由于接收方解码失败，因此发送方发起了HARQ重传。HARQ重传与初传具有相同的进程ID，在图8B中均为0；可以通过标志比特来区分HARQ重传与初传(例如，通过LTE、NR系统中的new data indicator(新数据指示))。在该传输块的HARQ重传中，可以对HARQ重传重复发送2 次(虚线814表示因重复而额外进行的发送)。同样，发送812和814的HARQ ID均为0。接着，接收方可以类似地基于K值和HARQ ID值来对接收进行解码。HARQ重传可以在最大重传次数的限制内进行多次，直到解码出原传输块或者达到最大重传次数为止。
图8C示出了根据本公开实施例的发送方确定并重复发送HARQ传输的多个进程的示例。在该示例中，重复发送次数K为2。图8C的示例可以与图8B类似地理解，此处仅作简要说明。在图8C中，存在并发的2个HARQ进程(HARQ ID分别为0和1)，发送方可以分别使用这2个进程来发送例如第一传输块和第二传输块。接收方同样可以基于K值和HARQ ID值来解码第一传输块和第二传输块。在解码失败的情况下，可以针对不同的传输块分别进行HARQ重传。
图9A示出了根据本公开实施例的用于发送方的示例性电子设备，其中该发送方可以实现为各种无线通信系统中的终端(或基站)。图9A所示的电子设备900可以包括各种单元以实现根据本公开的各实施例。在该示例中，电子设备900可以包括参数生成单元902和第三收发单元904。
在一些实施例中，参数生成单元902可以被配置为生成针对要由发送方发送的同一传输块的重复发送次数参数K。第三收发单元904可以被配置为向接收方发送参数K，并且将至少一个传输块重复发送K次。
在发送方被实现为终端的情况下，参数生成单元902可以被配置为生成针对上行链路中同一传输块的重复发送次数参数K。第三收发单元904可以被配置为向基站发送参数K，并且将至少一个传输块重复发送K次。
图9B示出了根据本公开实施例的用于接收方的示例性电子设备，其中该接收方可以实现为各种无线通信系统中的基站(或终端)。图9B所示的电子设备950可以包括各种单元以实现根据本公开的各实施例。在该示例中，电子设备950可以包括参数获得单元952和第四收发单元954。
在一些实施例中，参数获得单元952可以被配置为接收并获得来自发送方的针对发送方发送的同一传输块的重复发送次数参数K。第四发送单元954可以被配置为接收来自接收方的至少一个传输块的K次重复发送。
在接收方被实现为基站的情况下，参数获得单元952可以被配置为接收并获得来自终端的针对上行链路中同一传输块的重复发送次数参数K。第四发送单元954可以被配置为接收来自终端的至少一个传输块的K次重复发送。
上述各个单元仅是根据其所实现的具体功能划分的逻辑模块，而不是用于限制具 体的实现方式，例如可以以软件、硬件或者软硬件结合的方式来实现。在实际实现时，上述各个单元可被实现为独立的物理实体，或者也可由单个实体(例如，处理器(CPU或DSP等)、集成电路等)来实现。其中，处理电路可以指在计算系统中执行功能的数字电路系统、模拟电路系统或混合信号(模拟和数字的组合)电路系统的各种实现。处理电路可以包括例如诸如集成电路(IC)、专用集成电路(ASIC)这样的电路、单独处理器核心的部分或电路、整个处理器核心、单独的处理器、诸如现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)的可编程硬件设备、和/或包括多个处理器的系统。
图10A示出了根据本公开实施例的发送方重复发送的第一示例方法1000a。在上行链路中，可以由终端执行该方法；在下行链路中，可以由基站执行该方法。方法1000a开始后，可以在1002处确定在从发送方到接收方的链路中同一传输块的重复发送次数K，并向接收方发送该K值。在1004处，发送方可以将至少一个传输块重复发送K次。
图10B示出了根据本公开实施例的接收方接收重复发送的第一示例方法1000b。在上行链路中，可以由基站执行该方法；在下行链路中，可以由终端执行该方法。方法1000b开始后，接收方可以在1006处接收关于发送方的同一传输块的重复发送次数K。在1008处，接收方可以接收来自发送方的至少一个传输块的K次重复发送，并从所接收的K次重复发送中恢复该至少一个传输块。
图10C示出了根据本公开实施例的发送方重复发送的第二示例方法1050a。在上行链路中，可以由终端执行该方法；在下行链路中，可以由基站执行该方法。对于至少一个HARQ进程，发送方可以使用该HARQ进程重复发送单个传输块。如图10C所示，发送方可以在1052处将传输块的HARQ初传重复发送K次(例如作为同一HARQ进程的多个实例)，并在1054处确定是否接收到ACK。如果在1054处确定为是，则表明传输块已经被接收方正确恢复，因此可以前进到1058。在1058处，发送方可以结束该HARQ进程的传输。如果在1054处确定为否，则表明传输块没有被接收方正确恢复，因此需要前进到1056处将传输块的下一HARQ重传重复发送K次。之后，可以返回到1054处再次确定是否接收到ACK。如果这次确定为是，则同样前进到1058；否则，重复1056的操作。
图10D示出了根据本公开实施例的接收方接收重复发送的第二示例方法1050b。在上行链路中，可以由基站执行该方法；在下行链路中，可以由终端执行该方法。在图10D的示例中，接收方可以对单个传输块的HARQ初传和/或重传的多次重复发送进行接收。如图10D所示，对于至少一个HARQ进程，在1062处，接收方可以接收传输块的 HARQ初传的K次重复发送，并对多次接收进行合并处理。在1064处，接收方可以确定传输块是否被正确恢复。如果在1064处确定为是，则可以前进到1068。在1068处，接收方可以反馈ACK，并结束该HARQ进程的接收。如果在1064处确定为否，则需要前进到1066处。在1066处，接收方可以反馈NACK；接着，接收方接收传输块的HARQ重传的K次重复发送，并进行合并处理。之后，可以返回到1064处再次确定传输块是否被正确恢复。如果这次确定为是，则前进到1068；否则，重复1066的操作。
在一些实施例中，在授权频段或非授权频段中，上行链路中的HARQ ID可以不与特定的资源相关。这样，HARQ进程可以例如不再与特定的时域位置绑定，从而可以为HARQ进程以及可能的多个实例(例如用于上述重复发送)灵活地配置或选择时域位置。
表2至表4示出了与终端在上行链路中进行重复发送相关的上行链路信令。如表2所示，可以在物理层信令(例如NR UCI)中增加表示重复发送次数的“Repetition K”字段和表示不同重复发送的冗余情况的“Repetition RV”字段。如表2所示，可以用2个比特表示重复发送次数，并且表3给出了示例取值。如表2所示，可以用2个比特表示针对同一传输块(例如该传输块的初传或重传)的重复发送的重复RV参数，并且表4给出了示例RV序列。除了在NR UCI中表示重复发送次数和重复RV参数之外，本领域技术人员还可以类似地用其他高层信令和物理层信令向基站传达与重复发送相关的信息。
在一些情况下，基站也可能对上行链路的重复发送次数进行配置。在一些实施例中，由于终端要自主确定上行链路的重复发送次数，因此终端确定的次数可以总是覆盖基站配置的次数，或者基站在知晓终端自主配置后不再配置该次数或者将该次数配置为默认的无效值(即不被终端采用)。
在一些情况下，基站也可能对上行链路的用于同一传输块(例如该传输块的初传或重传)的重复发送的重复RV参数进行配置。在这些情况下，终端可以基于基站配置的重复RV参数进行重复发送。在一些实施例中，由于终端可以自主生成上述重复RV参数，因此终端生成的重复RV参数可以覆盖基站配置的重复RV参数。
