Description

Signal transmission method and device

Technical field

This application relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a signal transmission method and device.

Background technique

In the long-term evolution (LTE) and the fifth generation (5G) mobile communication system new radio (NR), the connected discontinuous reception cycle (C) is defined in the connected state. -DRX cycle, usually also referred to as DRX cycle). As shown in Figure 1, C-DRX cycle consists of "On Duration" and "Opportunity for DRX". Among them, On Duration can be referred to as the startup duration, and Opportunity for DRX can be referred to as a DRX opportunity. During the "On Duration" period, the user equipment (UE) is in the active period and can monitor and receive the PDCCH; during the "Opportunity for DRX" period, the UE is in the dormant period and does not receive the PDCCH to reduce power consumption.

In order to further achieve the purpose of saving power consumption, in the standardization discussion of NR's 16th version (release 16, Rel-16), a method based on power saving signal (power saving signal) is proposed: start at C-DRX cycle Before (that is, before OnDuration), the network side sends a power saving signal to the UE, instructing the UE to enter the sleep state in one or more C-DRX cycles. Of course, a power saving signal can also be sent to wake up the terminal device in the sleep state.

There can be a certain time interval or time offset between the power saving signal and OnDuration, which is used for the processing of the power saving signal (that is, monitoring whether there is a power saving signal and analyzing its meaning), time-frequency synchronization , Channel state information (channel state information, CSI) measurement, beam management (beam management) and other operations. However, how to configure the time interval between the power saving signal and OnDuration is not yet provided in the standard.

Summary of the invention

The embodiments of the present application provide a signal transmission method and device for configuring the time interval (also referred to as an offset) between the power saving signal and OnDuration.

In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a signal transmission method, including: a network device generates a first signal, the first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in a sleep state or an awake state within a first time interval; Send the first signal to the terminal device at time, the first time is earlier than the start time of the first time interval, there is a first time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval, and the value of the first time interval Is a value in the target set, the target set includes N values configured by the network device, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2.

In the method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval has multiple values (ie, multiple lengths), which can respectively correspond to different processing requirements of the terminal device. The different processing requirements of the terminal equipment means that the terminal equipment needs to perform some or all of the processing of time-frequency synchronization, CSI measurement, and beam management in the first time interval under different conditions. The more processing is performed, the more processing is required. The longer it takes. For example, when the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization, the value of the first time interval can be set larger, and when the terminal device does not need to perform time-frequency synchronization, the value of the first time interval can be set smaller. Avoid the problem of wasting power consumption when only configuring a value for the first time interval.

With reference to the first aspect, in the first possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the value of the first time interval has a first correspondence with the length of the first DRX cycle in which the first time interval is located.

With reference to the first possible implementation manner of the first aspect, in the second possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the value of the first time interval and the length of the first discontinuous reception DRX cycle in which the first time interval is located The first corresponding relationship includes: when the first DRX cycle is the first cycle, the value of the first time interval is the first value in the target set; when the first DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the first time interval is The value is the second value in the target set.

With reference to the second possible implementation manner of the first aspect, in the third possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the first value is different from the second value. For example, when the first cycle is a long C-DRX cycle configured by the network device, and the second cycle is a short C-DRX cycle configured by the network device, the first value may be greater than the second value. This is because in a long C-DRX cycle, the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization operation. In a short C-DRX cycle, the terminal device may not perform time-frequency synchronization operation. Therefore, the first value can be greater than the second value. Value so that the terminal device has enough time to perform time-frequency synchronization operations.

With reference to the first possible implementation manner of the first aspect, in the fourth possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the value of the first time interval is the same as the length of the first discontinuous reception DRX cycle in which the first time interval is located The first correspondence relationship includes: when the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value in the target set; when the length of the first DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, the first The value of the time interval is the fourth value in the target set; when the length of the first DRX cycle is equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value or the fourth value.

With reference to the fourth possible implementation manner of the first aspect, in the fifth possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the third value is different from the fourth value. For example, when the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device cannot maintain time-frequency synchronization, so the terminal device needs to perform a time-frequency synchronization operation; when the length of the first DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, The terminal device can maintain time-frequency synchronization. Therefore, the terminal device does not need to perform a time-frequency synchronization operation. Therefore, the third value can be greater than the fourth value so that the terminal device has enough time to perform the time-frequency synchronization operation.

With reference to the fourth or fifth possible implementation manner of the first aspect, in the sixth possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the first threshold is reported by the terminal device or indicated by the network device. The terminal device may report the first threshold value through RRC signaling, or media access control element (MAC CE), or uplink control information (UCI). The network device may indicate the first threshold through RRC signaling, or MAC CE, or DCI. For example, n bits may be added to the DCI to indicate the first threshold.

With reference to the fourth to sixth possible implementation manners of the first aspect, in the seventh possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the first threshold is determined according to a time threshold for the terminal device to maintain time-frequency synchronization. For example, the first threshold may be equal to the time threshold at which the terminal device can maintain time-frequency synchronization. When the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device cannot maintain time-frequency synchronization, so the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization; when the length of the first DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, the terminal device can maintain Time-frequency synchronization, so terminal equipment does not need to perform time-frequency synchronization operations.

For example, the second threshold may be 6Ghz. When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, the cell where the terminal device is located is at a high frequency frequency point, and the terminal device needs to perform beam management; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than 6Ghz, the cell where the terminal device is located At a low frequency point, the terminal device does not need to perform beam management; at this time, the fifth value can be greater than the sixth value, so that the terminal device has enough time to perform beam management operations.

detailed description

In order to make the description of the following embodiments clear and concise, first a brief introduction of related concepts or technologies is given:

5G NR: 5G NR is a topic recently proposed by the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) organization, which is located in the 14th release of NR (Rel-14). In the past 10 years, the LTE standard proposed by the 3GPP organization has been widely used all over the world, and is called the fourth generation (4G) mobile communication technology. For example, China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom have adopted 4G LTE time division duplexing (TDD) and frequency division duplexing (FDD) transmission technologies, respectively, and have provided users with High-speed and convenient mobile network service.

As the new generation of 5G technology enters the discussion stage, whether the system structure and access process that have been reached in the original 4G LTE continue to be adopted needs to be discussed. On the one hand, because the communication system is compatible with the latter item, the new technologies developed later tend to be compatible with the previously standardized technologies; on the other hand, because 4G LTE already has a large number of existing designs, if in order to achieve compatibility, it must be To sacrifice a lot of 5G flexibility, thereby reducing performance. Therefore, currently in the 3GPP organization, two directions are studied in parallel. In the two directions, the technical discussion group that does not consider backward compatibility is called 5G NR.

Beam management: The bands deployed in the NR system include both low-frequency bands, namely frequency range 1 (FR1) below 6 GHz, and high-frequency bands, namely frequency range 2 (frequency range 2, FR2) above 6 GHz. Such as millimeter wave.

As shown in Figure 2, in the low-frequency band, a single antenna can radiate omnidirectionally, and the electromagnetic signals travel the same distance in all directions. In the high-frequency band, as the electromagnetic wave wavelength becomes shorter, the size of the antenna can be reduced accordingly, so that a large-scale antenna array can be used for communication. The antenna array composed of multiple antennas can carry out directional radiation, and can concentrate energy in a narrower direction to form a beam, so that the propagation distance of electromagnetic signals is longer, the direction is more concentrated, and the communication performance is enhanced, thereby reducing energy waste.

When using beams for communication, the beams between the base station and the UE must be aligned to communicate normally. In order to ensure beam alignment between the base station and the UE, beam management is required. For example, as shown in (a) in FIG. 3, the beam of the base station and the beam of the UE can both point to each other to communicate. As shown in (b), (c) and (d) in Figure 3, if any beam does not point to the other party, normal communication cannot be performed.

Carrier aggregation (CA): In the initial stage of LTE standard formulation, the maximum bandwidth of a carrier is specified as 20 MHz. In the subsequent standardization process, LTE has been further improved, which is called LTE-Advanced (LTE-A). In order to meet the requirements of 1Gbps downlink peak speed and 500Mbps uplink peak speed specified in LTE-A, a maximum transmission bandwidth of 100MHz needs to be provided. Due to the scarcity of large-bandwidth continuous spectrum, LTE-A proposes a carrier aggregation solution. Carrier aggregation is the aggregation of 2 or more component carriers (CC) to support a larger transmission bandwidth (maximum 100MHz). Each CC corresponds to an independent cell (cell), it can also be said that one CC is equivalent to one cell. The maximum bandwidth of each CC can be 20MHz.

Starting from the tenth version (Release10, Rel-10), CA was introduced into the standard. A UE can be configured with up to 5 CCs, one of which corresponds to a primary cell (primary cell, PCell), and the remaining CCs correspond to a secondary cell (secondary cell, SCell). Among them, the PCell is responsible for radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) communication with the UE, and the physical uplink control channel (physical uplink control channel, PUCCH) can only be sent on the PCell. The Pcell may be a cell where the UE performs initial connection establishment, or a cell where RRC connection reestablishment is performed, or a cell designated during a handover (handover) process. The SCell is a cell added during RRC reconfiguration to provide additional radio resources.

Starting from the 13th version (Release13, Rel-13), enhanced CA (enhanced CA, eCA) is introduced into the standard, and a UE can be configured with up to 32 CCs. In NR, eCA can also be used, where the uplink and downlink respectively support up to 16 CCs. At the same time, when the base station has a large bandwidth and the UE has insufficient capabilities to support such a large bandwidth through a single carrier, the UE can support large bandwidth through intraband continuous CA (intraband contiguous CA). For example, when the bandwidth of the base station is 400MHz and the maximum continuous bandwidth that the UE can support is 100MHz, the UE can regard the bandwidth of the base station as an aggregation of four 100MHz bandwidths, and communicate with the base station by means of CA.

C-DRX: C-DRX cycle length (C-DRX cycle length) includes the length of the active period and the sleep period. In a set of C-DRX configuration, the base station can configure two cycles for the UE, namely the short C-DRX cycle (short C-DRX) and the long C-DRX cycle (long C-DRX). The cycle length is different, the UE You can switch between the two cycles. Among them, the cycle length of the short C-DRX cycle ranges from 2ms to 640ms, and the cycle length of the long C-DRX cycle ranges from 10ms to 10240ms. Currently, when the base station configures C-DRX for the UE, each UE has only one set of configuration. In the CA scenario, each CC follows the same C-DRX cycle, active period, and sleep period length, that is, the UE wakes up and sleeps at the same time on each CC.

Power saving signal: The network device can send a power saving signal to the terminal device, indicating that the terminal device is in a sleep state during one or more C-DRX cycles to save the power consumption of the terminal device. The network device can also send a power saving signal to the terminal device to wake up the terminal device. There is a time interval between the power saving signal and the On Duration of the C-DRX cycle, which can be referred to as offset for short. That is, there is a time interval between the moment when the network device issues the power saving signal (or the moment when the terminal device receives the power saving signal) and the start moment of the C-DRX cycle. This time interval is used for the processing of power saving signals (that is, monitoring whether there are power saving signals and analyzing their meaning), time-frequency synchronization, channel state information (CSI) measurement, beam management, etc. Processing operation.

For a UE, whether time-frequency synchronization and/or CSI measurement is required before OnDuration may depend on the sleep state of the UE and/or the length of time the UE is in the sleep state. The sleep state of the UE may be light sleep or deep sleep, for example. Exemplarily, for a UE, if it needs to maintain time-frequency synchronization with the base station, it needs to receive the downlink signal sent by the base station, and perform the time-frequency deviation based on the downlink signal (the deviation is due to the respective crystal oscillators of the UE and the base station). If the components are not exactly the same) estimate, and compensate for the deviation. When the UE is in deep sleep (deep sleep), that is, it has been in a sleep state for a long time, and it may lose synchronization with the time and frequency of the base station if it does not receive the downlink signal sent by the base station; when the UE is in light sleep (light sleep), that is The time in the sleep state is short, the UE can maintain time-frequency synchronization (that is, the error with the base station is small), and the UE can receive the downlink signal when it wakes up next time to correct the deviation.

For a UE, whether beam management is required before OnDuration may depend on the frequency of the cell where the UE is located. Exemplarily, when the frequency of the cell where the UE is located is high, for example, greater than 6Ghz, the UE may use beam transmission technology, so beam management is required; when the frequency of the cell where the UE is located is low, such as less than 6Ghz, the UE may not With the beam transmission technology, beam management is not required at this time.

In the current standard discussion, it is proposed that the offset between the power saving signal and OnDuration is a configurable value. As shown in Figure 4, suppose that the base station configures an offset value for the UE (assumed to be offset0). When the C-DRX cycle length of the UE is "length 1," the UE needs time-frequency synchronization and CSI measurement. The UE can set the offset value in offset0. The processing of time-frequency synchronization and CSI measurement is performed in the entire duration. When the C-DRX cycle length of the UE becomes "Length 2", in fact, the UE does not need time-frequency synchronization and only needs to perform CSI measurement, that is, the UE only needs to perform CSI measurement within a part of offset0, and then it goes to On In the period before Duration, the UE may only be able to enter light sleep, or even fail to enter the sleep state, which will result in waste of power consumption.

The embodiments of the present application provide a signal transmission method and device, which are applied in the transmission process of a signal (for example, a power saving signal). Specifically, the network device can send a power saving signal to the terminal device. The power saving signal can indicate how long the terminal device should stay awake and perform normal data transmission and reception. For example, the power saving signal can indicate that the terminal device is Keep awake state for one or more DRX cycles. Alternatively, the power saving signal may indicate how long the terminal device stays in the sleep state. For example, the power saving signal may indicate the terminal device to stay in the sleep state during one or more DRX cycles to save power consumption.

Wherein, there is a time interval between the moment when the network device sends the power saving signal and the starting moment when the terminal device remains in the awake state or sleep state according to the power saving signal. In different situations, the time interval can have different values. For example, in different sleep states of the terminal device, the value of the time interval is different. When the terminal device is in light sleep, the value of the time interval may be smaller than the value of the time interval when the terminal device is in deep sleep. For another example, when the frequency of the cell where the terminal device is located is different, the value of the time interval is different. The value of the time interval when the terminal device is in the low-frequency cell may be smaller than the value of the time interval when the terminal device is in the high-frequency cell. For another example, in different sleep states of the terminal device, and the frequency of the cell where the terminal device is located is different, the value of the time interval is different. In this application, the time interval may also be referred to as time offset or offset.

In different situations, the terminal device needs to perform some or all of the processing of time-frequency synchronization, CSI measurement, beam management, etc. in the first time interval. The more processing is performed, the longer the required time is. In the method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval has multiple values (ie, multiple lengths), which can respectively correspond to different processing requirements of the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device is in deep sleep and needs to perform time-frequency synchronization, the value of the first time interval can be set to a larger value. When the terminal device is in light sleep, when time-frequency synchronization is not required, the first time interval can be set. The value of the time interval is set to be smaller, which can avoid the problem of waste of power consumption when only a value of the first time interval is configured.

The embodiments of this application can be applied to various wireless communication systems such as LTE systems, 5G NR systems, and next-generation wireless local area network systems.

The communication system may include a network device 100 (such as a base station) and one or more terminal devices connected to the network device 100 200 (only one is shown in Figure 2). After the network device generates the first signal, it sends the first signal to the terminal device at the first moment, and the terminal device receives the first signal from the network device at the first moment. The first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in a sleep state or awake state during the first time interval, and there is a first time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval, and the value of the first time interval is Is a value in the target set, the target set includes N values, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2.

In addition, in order to clearly describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, in the embodiments of the present application, words such as "first" and "second" are used to distinguish the same items or similar items with substantially the same function and effect. Those skilled in the art can understand that the words "first", "second" and the like do not limit the quantity and execution order, and the words "first" and "second" do not limit the difference.

For ease of understanding, the signal transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be specifically introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 6, an embodiment of the present application provides a signal transmission method, including:

601. The network device generates a first signal, where the first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in a sleep state or an awake state within a first time interval.

The first time interval may include one or more DRX cycles (for example, C-DRX cycles), or the first time interval may include one or more OnDuration, or the first time interval may include one or more Opportunities for DRX. For example, the first signal may indicate that the terminal device is in a sleep state for the next 3 C-DRX cycles, and the next 3 C-DRX cycles are the 3 C-DRX cycles that arrive after the network device sends the first signal. For another example, the first signal may indicate that the terminal device is in a sleep state for the next 2 OnDurations. For another example, the first signal may indicate that the terminal device is in the awake state in the next two Opportunity for DRX.

Optionally, if the first time interval includes multiple DRX cycles, the first DRX cycle is the first DRX cycle of the multiple DRX cycles, that is, the first DRX cycle that arrives after the network device sends the first signal. If the first time interval includes multiple OnDurations, the first DRX cycle is the DRX cycle in which the first OnDuration of the multiple OnDurations is located, that is, the first DRX cycle that arrives after the network device sends the first signal. If the first time interval includes multiple Opportunities for DRX, the first DRX cycle is the first Opportunity for DRX among the multiple Opportunities for DRX, that is, the first DRX cycle that arrives after the network device sends the first signal .

Exemplarily, when the first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in the sleep state during the first time interval, if the terminal device is based on the C-DRX mechanism or the network device's instruction (for example, the network device previously indicated by the first signal or by other Information indication) The terminal device is in the awake state, and the terminal device can switch to the sleep state within the first time interval to save the power consumption of the terminal device; if the terminal device is in the sleep state based on the C-DRX mechanism or the instruction of the network device, the terminal device can Continue to sleep in the first time interval to save power consumption of the terminal device. When the first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in the awake state during the first time interval, if the terminal device is in the sleep state based on the C-DRX mechanism or the network device’s indication, the terminal device can wake up from the sleep state, Keep the awake state in the time interval; if the terminal device is in the awake state based on the C-DRX mechanism or the network device's instruction, the terminal device can continue to keep the awake state in the first time interval.

In a possible design, the terminal device in the sleep state includes at least one of the following:

(1) The terminal device does not monitor the PDCCH to save the power consumption of the terminal device.

For example, the terminal device does not receive downlink control information (DCI) carried in the PDCCH channel to save power consumption of the terminal device.

(2) The terminal equipment does not receive the downlink reference signal sent by the network equipment to save the power consumption of the terminal equipment.

Among them, the downlink reference signal may include at least one of the following: cell-specific reference signals (CRS), also called common reference signals, used for all downlinks except for beamforming technologies that are not based on codebooks Transmission technology channel estimation and related demodulation. Multicast/multicast single frequency network reference signals (multicast broadcast single frequency network reference signals, MBSFN-RS) are used for channel estimation and related demodulation of MBSFN. The mobile station-specific reference signal (UE-specific RS) is used for channel estimation and related demodulation of beamforming technology not based on codebooks. Channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) are used to demodulate the horizontal spread angle information and vertical tilt angle information of the transmitting unit. The synchronization signal block (synchronization signal block, SSB) is used for time-frequency synchronization, beam management, and radio resource management (radio resource management, RRM) measurement. Tracking reference signal (tracking reference signal, TRS), used for time-frequency tracking and other functions.

(3) The terminal device does not perform measurement to save the power consumption of the terminal device.

For example, the terminal device not performing measurement may include: the terminal device not performing RRM measurement, and/or the terminal device not performing CSI measurement, so as to save power consumption of the terminal device.

It should be understood that the terminal device does not perform measurement, it may be that the terminal device does not receive the reference signal used for measurement, or the terminal device does not process the received reference signal. For example, if the terminal device does not perform RRM measurement, it may be that the terminal device does not receive the SSB or does not process the received SSB. For another example, if the terminal device does not perform CSI measurement, it may be that the terminal device does not receive the CSI reference signal, or does not process the received CSI reference signal.

In a possible design, the terminal device being in the awake state includes at least one of the following: (1) The terminal device monitors the physical downlink control channel PDCCH. (2) The terminal device receives the downlink reference signal sent by the network device. (3) The terminal equipment performs measurement. For related description, please refer to the above description, which will not be repeated here.

602. The network device sends a first signal to the terminal device at the first moment.

The first time is earlier than the start time of the first time interval, there is a first time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval, and the value of the first time interval is one of the target set. Value, the target set includes N values configured by the network device, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2. The network device may pre-store N values in the target set, or the network device may configure and update the N values in the target set based on a big data method, which is not limited in this application. Among them, the size of each of the N values can be greater than or equal to zero.

In this application, the first time interval may also be referred to as the first time offset or the first offset. The value of the first time interval is dynamic or not fixed. On the one hand, for a terminal device, in different situations (for example, in different DRX cycles), the first time interval may have different values. On the other hand, for multiple terminal devices, the values of the first time intervals corresponding to different terminal devices may be different. For example, when the first terminal device is in the long C-DRX cycle and the second terminal device is in the short C-DRX cycle, the value of the first time interval corresponding to the first terminal device and the first time interval corresponding to the second terminal device are different .

In a possible design, the value of the first time interval has a first corresponding relationship with the length of the first DRX cycle in which the first time interval is located. Wherein, the DRX cycle may include a C-DRX cycle, for example, the first DRX cycle may be the first C-DRX cycle.

In a possible design, when the first DRX cycle is the first cycle, the value of the first time interval is the first value in the target set; when the first DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the first time interval is The value is the second value in the target set; the first value is different from the second value.

In a possible design, when the first cycle is a long C-DRX cycle configured by the network device and the second cycle is a short C-DRX cycle configured by the network device, the first value may be greater than the second value. This is because in a long C-DRX cycle, the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization operation. In a short C-DRX cycle, the terminal device may not perform time-frequency synchronization operation. Therefore, the first value can be greater than the second value. Value so that the terminal device has enough time to perform time-frequency synchronization operations.

Optionally, whether in a long C-DRX cycle or in a short C-DRX cycle, the terminal device may perform operations such as CSI measurement and/or beam management in the first time interval.

In a possible design, when the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value in the target set; when the length of the first DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, the The value of a time interval is the fourth value in the target set; when the length of the first DRX cycle is equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value or the fourth value; among them, the third The value is different from the fourth value.

The first threshold may be determined according to the time threshold for the terminal device to maintain time-frequency synchronization. For example, the first threshold may be equal to the time threshold at which the terminal device can maintain time-frequency synchronization. When the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device cannot maintain time-frequency synchronization, so the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization; when the length of the first DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, the terminal device can maintain Time-frequency synchronization, therefore, the terminal device does not need to perform a time-frequency synchronization operation. Therefore, the third value can be greater than the fourth value, so that the terminal device has enough time to perform a time-frequency synchronization operation.

Optionally, the first threshold may be reported by the terminal device or indicated by the network device. For example, the terminal device may report the first threshold through RRC signaling, or MAC CE, or UCI. The network device may indicate the first threshold through RRC signaling, or MAC CE, or DCI. For example, n bits may be added to the DCI to indicate the first threshold. Optionally, the terminal device may report related capabilities to the network device to instruct the terminal device to maintain a time threshold for time-frequency synchronization.

In a possible design, the value of the first time interval has a second corresponding relationship with the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located. The frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is the frequency range or frequency point or frequency band of the cell where the terminal device is located.

In a possible design, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than the second threshold, the value of the first time interval is the fifth value in the target set; the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than At the second threshold, the value of the first time interval is the sixth value in the target set; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is equal to the second threshold, the value of the first time interval is the fifth value or The sixth value; among them, the fifth value is different from the sixth value.

For example, the second threshold may be 6Ghz. When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, the cell where the terminal device is located is at a high frequency frequency point, and the terminal device needs to perform beam management; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than 6Ghz, the cell where the terminal device is located At a low frequency point, the terminal device does not need to perform beam management; at this time, the fifth value can be greater than the sixth value, so that the terminal device has enough time to perform beam management operations.

In a possible design, the value of the first time interval has a first correspondence with the length of the first DRX cycle in which the first time interval is located, and the value of the first time interval is related to the frequency domain of the cell where the terminal device is located. The resource location has a second correspondence.

In a possible design, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is in the target set When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the first in the target set Value of eight; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the ninth value in the target set Value; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the tenth value in the target set; The seventh value is different from the eighth value. For example, the seventh value may be greater than the eighth value. The ninth value is different from the tenth value, for example, the ninth value is greater than the tenth value.

In a possible design, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the first DRX cycle is the first cycle (for example, the long C-DRX cycle), the value of the first time interval Is the eleventh value in the target set; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the first DRX cycle is the second cycle (such as a short C-DRX cycle), the first time interval The value of is the twelfth value in the target set. When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the first DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the first time interval is the thirteenth value in the target set; When the frequency domain resource location is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the first DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the first time interval is the fourteenth value in the target set. Among them, the eleventh value is different from the twelfth value, for example, the eleventh value may be greater than the twelfth value. The thirteenth value is different from the fourteenth value, for example, the thirteenth value is greater than the fourteenth value.

It should be noted that the above example shows that when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than, equal to, or less than the second threshold, and/or the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than, equal to, or less than the first threshold, the first time The possibility of various values of the interval. In addition, the foregoing example shows that when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than, equal to, or less than the second threshold, and/or the first DRX cycle is the first cycle or the second cycle, various selections of the first time interval Possibility of value. It should be understood that the above descriptions are only specific implementations of the application, and are not used to limit the protection scope of the application. For example, in actual applications, only some of the possibilities may be included, which is not limited in this application.

In a possible design, the above-mentioned first correspondence and/or second correspondence are indicated by signaling; for example, it may be indicated by the network device through RRC signaling or MAC CE or DCI. Alternatively, the first correspondence and/or the second correspondence are predefined. That is, the first correspondence and/or the second correspondence may be pre-stored on the terminal device and the network device. Wherein, the first correspondence and/or the second correspondence may be indicated or pre-stored in the form of a table, or may be indicated or pre-stored in the form of a formula, or may be pre-stored in the form of pseudo code. Stored on terminal equipment and network equipment.

For example, assuming that the first correspondence is indicated or pre-stored in the form of a table, the first correspondence may be as shown in Table 1 or Table 2:

Table 1

第一DRX周期的长度Length of the first DRX cycle	第一时间间隔的取值The value of the first time interval
第一周期First cycle	第一取值First value
第二周期Second cycle	第二取值Second value

Table 2

第一DRX周期的长度Length of the first DRX cycle	第一时间间隔的取值The value of the first time interval
第一长度(大于或等于第一阈值)The first length (greater than or equal to the first threshold)	第三取值Third value
第二长度(小于第一阈值)The second length (less than the first threshold)	第四取值Fourth value

Assuming that the first correspondence relationship is indicated in the form of a formula or pre-stored, the first correspondence relationship may be as shown in formula (1):

Where, A represents the length of the DRX cycle of the terminal device, B represents the first threshold, and C or D represents the value of the first time interval.

In a possible design, before the network device sends the first signal to the terminal device at the first moment, the terminal device reports at least two recommended time interval values to the network device, any of the at least two recommended time interval values A value used to indicate the first time interval expected by the terminal device.

In a possible design, the recommended time interval value includes a first time interval recommended value and a second time interval recommended value, and the first time interval recommended value corresponds to the terminal device at the first time and the first time interval. A first operation is performed between the start time of a time interval, and the second time interval suggested value corresponds to a terminal device performing a second operation between the first time and the start time of the first time interval.

For example, the first operation may include performing CSI measurement, and the second operation may not include performing CSI measurement. At this time, since the terminal device needs more processing time when performing CSI measurement to receive the reference signal and process the signal, the recommended value of the first time interval may be greater than the recommended value of the second time interval. Alternatively, the first operation may include performing beam management, and the second operation may not include performing beam management. In the same way, the terminal device needs more processing time when performing beam management measurements to receive the reference signal and process the signal, so the recommended value of the first time interval may be greater than the recommended value of the second time interval. Alternatively, the first operation includes sending a sounding reference signal SRS, and the second operation does not include sending an SRS. In the same way, the terminal device needs more processing time when sending the SRS to prepare the signal to be sent and the signal to be sent, so the recommended value of the first time interval may be greater than the recommended value of the second time interval. Alternatively, the first operation includes performing time-frequency synchronization, and the second operation does not include performing time-frequency synchronization. Similarly, the terminal device needs more processing time when performing time-frequency synchronization to receive the reference signal and process the signal. Therefore, the recommended value of the first time interval may be greater than the recommended value of the second time interval.

603. The terminal device receives the first signal from the network device at the first moment.

When the first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in the sleep state during the first time interval, the terminal device enters the sleep state at the beginning of the first time interval, and the terminal device does not need to follow the C-DRX mechanism in the first time interval, and can Stay in the sleep state until the end of the first time interval to save power consumption of the terminal device. Of course, if the terminal device is in the sleep state during the first time interval, and the network device instructs the terminal device to wake up from the sleep state, the terminal device can wake up from the sleep state. After the terminal device wakes up, it can continue to follow the C-DRX mechanism.

There is a first time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval. In a possible design, the value of the first time interval has a first corresponding relationship with the length of the first DRX cycle in which the first time interval is located.

In a possible design, when the first DRX cycle is the first cycle, the value of the first time interval is the first value in the target set; when the first DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the first time interval is The value is the second value in the target set; where the first value is greater than the second value.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7a, when a long C-DRX cycle is used, the first signal is monitored at the position of offset1 before the start duration (On Duration) of the long C-DRX cycle, and a time-frequency synchronization operation is performed. Optionally, operations such as CSI measurement and/or beam management can also be performed accordingly. offset1 indicates that the first time interval is the first value. When a terminal device uses a short C-DRX cycle, it monitors the first signal at the position of offset2 before the start duration of the short C-DRX cycle, no time-frequency synchronization operation is required, but CSI measurement and/or beam management can be performed accordingly . offset2 indicates that the first time interval is the second value.

In a possible design, when the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value in the target set; when the length of the first DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, the The value of a time interval is the fourth value in the target set; when the length of the first DRX cycle is equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value or the fourth value; among them, the third The value is greater than the fourth value.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7b, when the terminal device uses the first length of C-DRX, the first signal is monitored at the position of offset3 before the start duration (On Duration) of the first length of C-DRX, and Time-frequency synchronization operation. Optionally, operations such as CSI measurement and/or beam management can also be performed accordingly. The first length is greater than or equal to the first threshold, and offset3 indicates that the first time interval is the third value. When the terminal device uses the second-length C-DRX, the first signal is monitored at the position of offset4 before the start duration (OnDuration) of the second-length C-DRX, and the time-frequency synchronization operation may not be performed, but the CSI may be performed accordingly Operations such as measurement and/or beam management. The second length is less than the first threshold, and offset4 indicates that the first time interval is the fourth value.

In a possible design, the value of the first time interval has a second corresponding relationship with the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located. Exemplarily, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the value of the first time interval is the fifth value in the target set; the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than the second threshold. Threshold, the value of the first time interval is the sixth value in the target set; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is equal to the second threshold, the value of the first time interval is the fifth value or the sixth value Value; among them, the fifth value is greater than the sixth value.

For example, as shown in Figure 8, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is FR1, the terminal device monitors the first signal at the position of offset5 before the start duration of C-DRX (On Duration), and performs beam management operating. Optionally, operations such as CSI measurement and/or time-frequency synchronization can also be performed accordingly. FR1 is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and offset5 indicates that the first time interval is the fifth value. When the frequency domain resource position of the cell where the terminal device is located is FR2, the first signal is monitored at the position of offset6 before the start duration of C-DRX (On Duration), beam management operation may not be performed, but CSI measurement and/or may be performed accordingly Time-frequency synchronization and other operations. FR2 is less than the second threshold, and offset6 indicates that the first time interval is the sixth value.

Exemplarily, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the seventh value in the target set. Value; when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the eighth value in the target set; When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the ninth value in the target set; the terminal device When the frequency domain resource location of the cell is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the first DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the tenth value in the target set; among them, the seventh The value is greater than the eighth value; the ninth value is greater than the tenth value.

For example, as shown in FIG. 9a, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is FR1, and the terminal device uses the first length of C-DRX, when the first length of C-DRX is activated (On Duration) The position of the previous offset7 monitors the first signal, and performs time-frequency synchronization and beam management operations. Optionally, operations such as CSI measurement can also be performed accordingly. FR1 is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the first length is greater than or equal to the first threshold, offset7 indicates that the first time interval is the seventh value. When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is FR1, and the terminal device uses the second length of C-DRX, the first signal is monitored at the position of offset8 before the start duration of the first length of C-DRX (On Duration) , The time-frequency synchronization operation may not be performed but the beam management operation is required. Optionally, operations such as CSI measurement can also be performed accordingly. FR1 is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the second length is less than the first threshold, offset8 indicates that the first time interval is the eighth value. As shown in Figure 9b, when the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is FR2, and the terminal device uses the first-length C-DRX, offset9 is before the first-length C-DRX start duration (On Duration) For the first signal of position monitoring, the beam management operation may not be performed but the time-frequency synchronization operation is required. Optionally, operations such as CSI measurement can also be performed accordingly. FR2 is less than the second threshold, and the first length is greater than or equal to the first threshold, offset9 indicates that the first time interval is the ninth value. When the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located is FR2, and the terminal device uses the second length of C-DRX, the first signal is monitored at the position of offset10 before the start duration (On Duration) of the first length of C-DRX , Beam management and time-frequency synchronization operations may not be performed, and optionally, operations such as CSI measurement can be performed accordingly. FR2 is less than the second threshold, and the second length is less than the first threshold, offset10 indicates that the first time interval is the tenth value.

604. The terminal device maintains a sleep state or an awake state within the first time interval according to the first signal.

The first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in the sleep state during the first time interval, if the terminal device is based on the C-DRX mechanism or the instruction of the network device (for example, the network device was previously indicated by the first signal or indicated by other information). In the wake-up state, the terminal device can switch to the sleep state in the first time interval to save the power consumption of the terminal device; if the terminal device is in the sleep state based on the C-DRX mechanism or the network device's indication, the terminal device can be in the first time interval It continues to sleep in order to save the power consumption of the terminal device. When the first signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in the awake state during the first time interval, if the terminal device is in the sleep state based on the C-DRX mechanism or the network device’s indication, the terminal device can wake up from the sleep state, Keep the awake state in the time interval; if the terminal device is in the awake state based on the C-DRX mechanism or the network device's instruction, the terminal device can continue to keep the awake state in the first time interval.

In a possible design, after receiving the first signal, the terminal device may perform the first processing or operation within the first time interval. The first processing or operation may include at least one of the analysis of the first signal, time-frequency synchronization processing, CSI measurement, and beam management.

It should be noted that there is no inevitable order of execution between step 601 and step 604, and this embodiment does not specifically limit the order of execution between steps.

In the following, in combination with the application scenarios and beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present application, taking the network equipment as the base station 100 and the terminal equipment as the mobile phone 200 as an example, the signal transmission method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be introduced.

As shown in Figure 9c, in order to save the power consumption of the mobile phone 200 or to wake up the mobile phone 200, the base station 100 generates a first signal. The first signal may be used to indicate that the mobile phone 200 is in a sleep state or wakes up during one or more C-DRX cycles. status. The base station 100 determines the start time of the start duration of the next C-DRX cycle (the upcoming C-DRX cycle) of the mobile phone 200, and determines the first time earlier than the start time. There is a first time interval between the first moment and the starting moment. The value of the first time interval may be selected from a plurality of values of the first time interval pre-stored on the base station 100. When the base station determines that the current mobile phone 200 is currently in the long C-DRX cycle, it can determine that the value of the first time interval is offset00, which corresponds to the long C-DRX cycle. The base station 100 transmits the first signal at the first time, and the mobile phone 200 receives the first signal at the first time. The mobile phone 200 can perform operations such as time-frequency synchronization, CSI measurement, and/or beam management in the offset00. When the base station determines that the current mobile phone 200 is currently in the short C-DRX cycle, it can determine that the value of the first time interval is offset01, which corresponds to the short C-DRX cycle. The base station 100 sends the first signal at the first moment, and the mobile phone 200 receives the first signal at the first moment. The mobile phone 200 can perform operations such as CSI measurement and/or beam management in offset01.

The above example describes the corresponding relationship between the value of the first time interval and the length of the C-DRX cycle, but the application is not limited to this, and the value of the first time interval may be related to the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located. Correspondence, or the value of the first time interval can have a corresponding relationship with the length of the C-DRX cycle and the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located. For related description, please refer to the content in the above-mentioned embodiment, which is not described here. Repeat.

Based on the method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the network device sends a first signal to the terminal device at the first time, indicating that the terminal device is in the sleep state or awake state during the first time interval, and the first time is the same as the start of the first time interval There is a first time interval between moments. The value of the first time interval is not a fixed value, and can have multiple values, which can meet different processing requirements of the terminal device. The different processing requirements of the terminal equipment means that the terminal equipment needs to perform some or all of the processing of time-frequency synchronization, CSI measurement, and beam management in the first time interval under different conditions. The more processing is performed, the more processing is required. The longer it takes. In the method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the time interval between the first time and the start time of the first time interval has multiple values (ie, multiple lengths), which can respectively correspond to different processing requirements of the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization, the value of the first time interval can be set larger, and when the terminal device does not need to perform time-frequency synchronization, the value of the first time interval can be set smaller. Avoid the problem of wasting power consumption when only configuring a value for the first time interval.

In one possible design, the first time interval is different from the second time interval.

In a possible design, the value of the second time interval has a third correspondence with the length of the second DRX cycle in which the second time interval is located. The third correspondence relationship is indicated by signaling or predefined. For example, the third correspondence relationship may be indicated by the network device through RRC signaling or MAC CE or DCI, or the third correspondence relationship may be pre-stored in the terminal device and the network.

For the first value and the second value, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which is not repeated here. Among them, the first cycle may be a long C-DRX cycle configured by the network device, and the second cycle may be a short C-DRX cycle configured by the network device.

In a possible design, when the length of the second DRX cycle is greater than the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value; when the length of the second DRX cycle is less than the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is The value is the fourth value; when the length of the second DRX cycle is equal to the first threshold, the value of the first time interval is the third value or the fourth value. For the third value and the fourth value, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which will not be repeated here. The first threshold is reported by the terminal device or instructed by the network device. The first threshold is determined according to the time threshold for the terminal device to maintain time-frequency synchronization. You can refer to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 and will not be repeated here.

In a possible design, the value of the second time interval has a fourth correspondence with the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located. The fourth correspondence relationship is indicated by signaling or predefined. For example, the fourth correspondence relationship may be indicated by the network device through RRC signaling or MAC CE or DCI, or the fourth correspondence relationship may be pre-stored in the terminal device and the network.

In a possible design, when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than the second threshold, the value of the second time interval is the fifth value; the frequency domain resource of the second cell where the terminal device is located When the location is less than the second threshold, the value of the second time interval is the sixth value; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is equal to the second threshold, the value of the second time interval is the fifth value Or the sixth value. For example, the second threshold may be 6Ghz. The cell where the terminal device is located is the second cell. When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, it means that the second cell is located at a high frequency point. At this time, the terminal device needs to perform beam management; when the second frequency domain resource is When the location is less than 6Ghz, it indicates that the second cell is located at a low frequency frequency point, and the terminal device does not need to perform beam management. At this time, the fifth value may be greater than the sixth value, so that the terminal device has enough time to perform beam management operations.

In a possible design, when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the second DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the second time interval is The seventh value; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the second DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the second time interval is taken as the eighth value Value; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the second DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the second time interval takes the ninth value; the terminal When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the length of the second DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the second time interval takes the tenth value. For the seventh value and the eighth value, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which will not be repeated here. For the ninth value and the tenth value, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which will not be repeated here.

For example, the first threshold may be determined according to the time threshold for the terminal device to maintain time-frequency synchronization. For example, the first threshold may be equal to the time threshold at which the terminal device can maintain time-frequency synchronization. The second threshold may be 6Ghz. When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, and the length of the second DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the second time interval is the seventh value, and the terminal device needs Perform beam management and need to perform time-frequency synchronization operations; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, and the length of the second DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the value of the second time interval It is the eighth value. At this time, the terminal device needs to perform beam management but may not perform time-frequency synchronization; therefore, the seventh value can be greater than the eighth value, that is, when the terminal device needs to perform beam management and time-frequency synchronization During operation, the second time interval can be set to be larger, and when the terminal device performs beam management without performing time-frequency synchronization operations, the second time interval can be set to be smaller. When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to 6Ghz, and the length of the second DRX cycle is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the second time interval takes the ninth value. At this time, the terminal device Need to perform time-frequency synchronization operations without beam management; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to 6Ghz, and the length of the second DRX cycle is less than or equal to the first threshold, the second time interval is taken The value is the tenth value; at this time, the terminal device may neither perform time-frequency synchronization operations nor perform beam management. Therefore, the seventh value can be greater than the eighth value, that is, when the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization operations, the second time interval can be set larger, and when the terminal device does not need to perform beam management, you can set The second time interval is set to be smaller.

In a possible design, when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the second DRX cycle is the first cycle, the value of the second time interval is the eleventh one. Value; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the second DRX cycle is the first cycle, the value of the second time interval is the twelfth value; where the terminal device is located When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell is greater than or equal to the second threshold, and the second DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the second time interval is the thirteenth value; the frequency domain of the second cell where the terminal device is located When the resource location is less than or equal to the second threshold, and the second DRX cycle is the second cycle, the value of the second time interval is the fourteenth value. For the eleventh value and the twelfth value, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which will not be repeated here. For the thirteenth value and the fourteenth value, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which will not be repeated here.

For example, suppose that the first cycle is a long C-DRX cycle configured by the network device, the second cycle is a short C-DRX cycle configured by the network device, and the second threshold is 6Ghz. When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, and the second DRX cycle is a long C-DRX cycle, the value of the second time interval is the eleventh value, and the terminal device needs Perform beam management and need to perform time-frequency synchronization operations; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to 6Ghz, and the second DRX cycle is a long C-DRX cycle, the value of the second time interval is the first A value of twelve, at this time, the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization operation but may not perform beam management. Therefore, the eleventh value can be greater than the twelfth value. That is to say, when the terminal device needs to perform beam management and time-frequency synchronization operations, the second time interval can be set to be larger. When performing synchronous operation without beam management, the second time interval can be set smaller. When the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is greater than or equal to 6Ghz, and the second DRX cycle is a short C-DRX cycle, the value of the second time interval is the thirteenth value. At this time, the terminal device needs Perform beam management without time-frequency synchronization; when the frequency domain resource location of the second cell where the terminal device is located is less than or equal to 6Ghz, and the second DRX cycle is a short C-DRX cycle, the value of the second time interval is the first A value of fourteen. At this time, the terminal device may neither perform time-frequency synchronization nor perform beam management. Therefore, the thirteenth value can be greater than the fourteenth value, that is, when the terminal device needs to perform beam management, the second time interval can be set larger, when the terminal device does not need to perform time-frequency synchronization operations , You can set the second time interval to be smaller.

In step 1007, the terminal device receives the second signal from the network device at the second time.

When the second signal is used to indicate that the terminal device is in the sleep state during the second time interval, the terminal device enters the sleep state at the beginning of the second time interval, and the terminal device does not need to follow the C-DRX mechanism in the second time interval, and can Stay in the sleep state until the end of the second time interval, so as to save the power consumption of the terminal device. Of course, if the terminal device is in the sleep state during the second time interval, and the network device instructs the terminal device to wake up from the sleep state, the terminal device can wake up from the sleep state. After the terminal device wakes up, it can continue to follow the C-DRX mechanism.

In step 1008, the terminal device maintains the sleep state or the awake state for the second time interval according to the second signal.

The terminal device being in the sleep state includes at least one of the following: the terminal device does not monitor the physical downlink control channel PDCCH; the terminal device does not receive the downlink reference signal sent by the network device; the terminal device does not perform measurement. The terminal device being in the awake state includes at least one of the following: the terminal device monitors the physical downlink control channel PDCCH; the terminal device receives the downlink reference signal sent by the network device; and the terminal device performs measurement. For details, reference may be made to the description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, which will not be repeated here.

As shown in FIG. 11, in order to save the power consumption of the mobile phone 200 or to wake up the mobile phone 200, the base station 100 generates a first signal. The first signal can be used to indicate that the mobile phone 200 is in a sleep state or wakes up during one or more C-DRX cycles status. The base station 100 determines the start time of the start duration of the next C-DRX cycle (the upcoming C-DRX cycle) of the mobile phone 200, and determines the first time earlier than the start time. There is a first time interval between the first moment and the starting moment. The value of the first time interval may be selected from a plurality of values of the first time interval pre-stored on the base station 100. When the base station determines that the current mobile phone 200 is currently in the long C-DRX cycle, it can determine that the value of the first time interval is offset02, which corresponds to the long C-DRX cycle. The base station 100 transmits the first signal at the first time, and the mobile phone 200 receives the first signal at the first time. The mobile phone 200 can perform operations such as time-frequency synchronization, CSI measurement, and/or beam management in offset02.

Then, the base station 100 may generate a second signal, and the second signal may be used to indicate that the mobile phone 200 is in a sleep state or an awake state within one or more C-DRX cycles. The base station 100 determines the start time of the start duration of the next C-DRX cycle (the upcoming C-DRX cycle) of the mobile phone 200, and determines the second time earlier than the start time. There is a second time interval between the second moment and the starting moment. The value of the second time interval may be selected from a plurality of values of the second time interval pre-stored on the base station 100. When the base station determines that the current mobile phone 200 is currently in the short C-DRX cycle, it can determine that the value of the second time interval is offset03, which corresponds to the short C-DRX cycle. The base station 100 transmits the second signal at the second time, and the mobile phone 200 receives the second signal at the second time. The mobile phone 200 can perform operations such as CSI measurement and/or beam management in offset03.

In the above example, the value of the first time interval has a corresponding relationship with the length of the C-DRX cycle, and the value of the second time interval has a corresponding relationship with the length of the C-DRX cycle. However, the application is not limited to this. The value of a time interval may have a corresponding relationship with the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located, or the value of the first time interval may have a relationship with the length of the C-DRX cycle and the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located. Correspondence. The value of the second time interval may have a corresponding relationship with the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located, or the value of the second time interval may be simultaneously related to the length of the C-DRX cycle and the frequency domain resource location of the cell where the terminal device is located. There is a corresponding relationship. For related descriptions, reference may be made to the content in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 10, which is not repeated here.

The value of the first time interval is not a fixed value, and can have multiple values, which can meet different processing requirements of the terminal device. Then, the network device sends a second signal to the terminal device at the second time, indicating that the terminal device is in the sleep state or awake state during the second time interval, and there is a second time between the second time and the start time of the second time interval interval. The value of the second time interval is not a fixed value, and can have multiple values, which can meet different processing requirements of the terminal device.

Among them, the different processing requirements of the terminal equipment means that the terminal equipment needs to perform some or all of the processing of time-frequency synchronization, CSI measurement, and beam management in the first time interval or the second time interval under different circumstances. The more processing, the longer it takes. In the method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first time interval or the second time interval may have multiple values (that is, multiple lengths), respectively, and may respectively correspond to different processing requirements of the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device needs to perform time-frequency synchronization in the first time interval, the value of the first time interval can be set to be larger, and when the terminal device does not need to perform time-frequency synchronization in the second time interval, it can set the second time The value of the interval is set to be smaller, which can meet the different needs of terminal equipment and avoid waste of power consumption.
