Description

一种资源确定方法及资源确定装置 技术领域
本申请涉及通信技术领域，尤其涉及一种资源确定方法及资源确定装置。
背景技术
随着通信技术的快速发展，在通信过程中有很多小包突发业务产生，例如，高可靠低时延的突发业务。而这类业务对数据的可靠性要求相当高。相应的，控制信道的可靠性要求比数据的可靠性要求更高。目前，可采用控制信道重复传输的方案，以保证控制信道的可靠性。
然而，下行控制信道重复传输的方案中，上行控制信道资源的确定成为一个问题。原因在于：一些情况下，上行控制信道资源是基于下行控制信道所在的控制信道元素(control channel element，CCE)位置确定的，而在下行控制信道重复传输的方案中，各重复传输的下行控制信道携带的下行控制信息相同，但占据的CCE位置不同。因此，导致无法确定唯一的上行控制信道资源，也就是说，终端设备无法确定出上行控制信道资源，以进行上行传输。
发明内容
本申请提供一种资源确定方法及资源确定装置，能够针对多个搜索空间确定出唯一的上行控制信道资源。
第一方面，本申请提供一种资源确定方法，该方法中，终端设备可从多个搜索空间中选择满足预设条件的搜索空间，从而根据该满足预设条件的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE位置，确定上行控制信道资源。
其中，该多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具有关联关系的搜索空间。
其中，多个搜索空间联合传输同一下行控制信息是指：多个搜索空间中每个搜索空间传输下行控制信息中的部分内容，终端设备需要检测该多个搜索空间承载的下行控制信道，才能获得该下行控制信息。多个搜索空间重复传输同一下行控制信道是指：同一下行控制信道信息在不同的搜索空间上分别传输，终端设备可以检测该多个搜索空间中的部分或者全部搜索空间来获得该下行控制信息。
针对上行控制信道资源集合中包括的上行控制信道资源的个数较多，超过上行控制信道资源指示所能指示的个数时，终端设备可根据满足预设条件的搜索空间所占的CCE位置确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
其中，根据满足预设条件的搜索空间的CCE位置确定上行控制信道资源时，该CCE位置可为该搜索空间所占的CCE位置中的起始CCE位置，或者结束CCE位置等。下文主要以CCE的起始位置为例。
一个搜索空间由时频资源上的l个CCE组成，l为聚合等级，即一个下行控制信道所 占的CCE个数。终端设备可根据网络设备配置的搜索空间组和控制资源集合确定搜索空间。其中，搜索空间组用于定义检测下行控制信道的时域上的可能性。控制资源集合用于定义检测下行控制信道的频域上的可能性。一个搜索空间组和一个控制资源集合可确定多个搜索空间。
预设条件包括以下的一个或多个：对应的控制资源集合的标识最小或最大；所在搜索空间组的标识最小或最大；对应的聚合等级最小或最大；CCE起始位置的标识最小或最大；对应的控制资源集合组的标识最小或最大。从而确定出满足预设条件的唯一的搜索空间。
以下针对多个搜索空间的确定阐述可选的，但不限于以下几种的实施方式。其中，该多个搜索空间如上所述具有关联关系，故可称为互相关联或关联的多个搜索空间。即终端设备可通过以下可选的实施方式确定关联的多个搜索空间。
一种实施方式中，多个搜索空间是基于一个搜索空间组关联多个控制资源集合确定的。也就是说，终端设备根据该搜索空间组和该多个控制资源集合确定关联的多个搜索空间。
一种可能的实现方式中，假设一个搜索空间组与两个控制资源集合相关联，两个控制资源集合分别为控制资源集合M 1和控制资源集合M 2，终端设备根据该搜索空间组和该搜索空间组关联的多个控制资源集合，确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：
终端设备基于搜索空间组和控制资源集合M 1确定第一搜索空间集合，第一搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 M1 1，搜索空间 M1 2，…，搜索空间 M1 N1；
终端设备基于该搜索空间组和控制资源集合M 2确定第二搜索空间集合，第二搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 M2 1，搜索空间 M2 2，…，搜索空间 M2 N2；其中，N1可等于或不等于N2，分别表示所确定的搜索空间的个数；
可通过协议预定义指示：第一搜索空间集合中前K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中前K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。终端设备确定第一搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。即搜索空间 M1 k与搜索空间 M2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 1、N 2中的最小值。
可选的，可通过协议预定义指示：第一搜索空间集合中后K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中后K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。
可选的，可通过信令配置的方式指示：第一搜索空间集合中选择K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中选择K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。
可选的，第一搜索空间集合中包含多个聚合等级，第二搜索空间集合中包含多个聚合等级，分别来自两个搜索空间集合，且聚合等级相同的多个搜索空间之间互相关联。
可选的，第一搜索空间集合中的搜素空间和第二搜索空间集合中的搜索空间可按照预定的方式分别排序。该预定的方式可包括：按照所占的CCE起始位置进行排序；或者先按照所占的起始符号(或起始符号位置)排序，同一起始符号的搜索空间，再按照所占的CCE起始位置进行排序；或者先按照对应的聚合等级排序，例如聚合等级按照从小到大排序或者从大到小排序，同一聚合等级的搜索空间，在按照所占的CCE起始位置或所占的起始符号进行排序；或者先按照所占的CCE起始位置排序，同一CCE起始位置的搜索空间，再按照所占的起始符号排序。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，假设一个搜索空间组与三个控制资源集合相关联，则可 采用类似上述实现方式确定每三个搜索空间相关联，例如，可在该三个关联的搜索空间上重复传输相同的下行控制信息。
该实施方式中，互相关联的搜索空间对应的控制资源集合的标识不同，预设条件可为对应的控制资源集合的标识最小或最大。这样，终端设备可从互相关联的多个搜索空间中选择满足该预设条件的搜索空间，进而确定上行控制信道资源。例如，搜索空间 M1 k与搜索空间 M2 k关联，若M1大于M2，预设条件为对应的控制资源集合的标识最小，那么，满足该预设条件的搜索空间为搜索空间 M2 k。
另一种实施方式中，互相关联的多个搜索空间是基于配置的N个搜索空间组及该N个搜索空间组分别关联的M个控制资源集合确定的。N大于等于1，M大于等于1。终端设备基于N个搜索空间组和该N个搜索空间组分别关联的M个控制资源集合确定一个搜索空间集合；
终端设备根据一定的规则将搜索空间集合中的每个搜索空间进行排序后，得到排序后的搜索空间集合：搜索空间1，搜索空间2，…，搜索空间N 3；
进一步，网络侧给终端设备下发一个信令，通知终端设备关联的搜索空间的偏移offset值。终端设备根据信令配置的偏移offset值从该搜索空间集合中确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。如搜索空间1与搜索空间(1+offset值)关联；或者，搜索空间1、搜索空间(1+offset值)和搜索空间(1+offset值*2)三者互相关联。
其中，终端设备根据一定的规则将该搜索空间集合中的各搜索空间进行排序时，该一定的规则可以是根据所占的CCE起始位置、对应的搜索空间组的标识ID、对应的控制资源集合的标识、对应的聚合等级中的一种或多种进行排序。以下对可选的排序方式进行举例阐述。
一种可能的实现方式，针对搜索空间集合中的各搜索空间，按照各搜索空间分别所占的CCE起始位置从小到大的顺序进行排序。
另一种可能的实现方式，针对搜索空间集合中的各搜索空间，按照各搜索空间分别对应的搜索空间组的标识ID从小到大(或从大到小)排序，然后针对搜索空间组的标识ID相同的搜索空间，按照各搜索空间分别对应的控制资源集合的标识ID从小到大(或从大到小)进行排序，最后针对控制资源集合的标识ID相同的搜索空间，再按照各搜索空间的聚合等级从小到大(或从大到小)进行排序。
又一种可能的实现方式，针对搜索空间集合中的各搜索空间，按照各搜索空间分别对应的控制资源集合的标识ID从小到大(或从大到小)排序，然后针对控制资源集合的标识ID相同的搜索空间，按照各搜索空间分别对应的搜索空间组的标识ID从小到大(或从大到小)进行排序，最后针对搜索空间组的标识ID相同的搜索空间，再按照各搜索空间的聚合等级从小到大(或从大到小)进行排序。
该实施方式中，预设条件包括以下的一个或多个：对应的控制资源集合的标识最小或最大；所在搜索空间组的标识最小或最大；对应的聚合等级最小或最大；CCE起始位置的标识最小或最大；对应的控制资源集合组的标识最大或最小。如搜索空间1与搜索空间(1+offset值)关联，预设条件为CCE起始位置的标识最小，且对搜索空间集合中各搜索空间按照各搜索空间分别所占的CCE起始位置从小到大的顺序进行排序，那么，满足该预 设条件的搜索空间为搜索空间1。
其中，搜索空间对应的控制资源集合组的标识是指搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中包含的控制资源集合组的标识。在多站场景中，各控制资源集合中包含的控制资源集合组的标识是不同的。对于一控制资源集合中包含的控制资源集合组的标识不存在或为0，表示这些控制资源集合组的标识是相同的。若一控制资源集合中包含的控制资源集合组的标识不存在或为0，另一控制资源集合中包含的控制资源集合组的标识为1，则表示标识不存在或为0的控制资源集合组的标识小于标识为1的控制资源集合组的标识。
可选的，协议规定关联的搜索空间必须具有相同的聚合等级，或者终端不期望接收到关联的搜索空间的聚合等级不相同。那么，对搜索空间集合中的搜索空间进行排序，可优先按照聚合等级将该搜索空间集合划分为各聚合等级对应的搜索空间子集合，每个搜索空间子集合中搜索空间的聚合等级相同。相应的，信令配置的偏移offset值是针对搜索空间子集合而言的，由于搜索空间子集合中搜索空间的个数小于搜索空间集合中的搜索空间的个数，因此，可降低偏移offset值的取值范围，进而，降低该offset值的比特开销。
其中，每个搜索空间子集合中各搜索空间的排序方式可参见上述所述的“一定的规则”的可选的实现方式，此处不再详述。
又一种实施方式中，多个搜索空间是基于一个控制资源集合关联的多个搜索空间组确定的，即多个搜索空间是基于一个控制资源集合与多个搜索空间组之间的关联关系确定的。这样，终端设备可基于该控制资源集合和关联的多个搜索空间组，确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
一种可能的实现方式中，假设两个搜索空间组与一个控制资源集合相关联，两个搜索空间组分别为SS set O 1和SS set O 2。终端设备可基于控制资源集合和关联的多个搜索空间组，确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：终端设备基于SS set O 1和控制资源集合确定第三搜索空间集合，第三搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 O1 1，搜索空间 O1 2，…，搜索空间 O1 N4；终端设备基于SS set O 2和控制资源集合确定第四搜索空间集合，第四搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 O2 1，搜索空间 O2 2，…，搜索空间 O2 N5。
其中，N4可等于或不等于N5，分别表示每个搜索空间集合中搜索空间的个数。终端设备确定第三搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间与第四搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。即搜索空间 O1 k与搜索空间 O2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 4、N 5中的最小值。
可选的，可通过协议预定义指示：第三搜索空间集合中后K个搜索空间与第四搜索空间集合中后K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。
可选的，可通过信令配置的方式指示：第三搜索空间集合中选择K个搜索空间与第四搜索空间集合中选择K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。
可选的，第三搜索空间集合中包含多个聚合等级，第四搜索空间集合中包含多个聚合等级，将分别来自两个搜索空间集合且聚合等级相同的多个搜索空间之间互相关联。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，假设三个搜索空间组与一个控制资源集合相关联，则可采用类似上述实现方式确定每三个搜索空间相关联，可在三个关联的搜索空间上重复传输相同的下行控制信息。
该实施方式中，互相关联的搜索空间对应的搜索空间组的标识不同，预设条件可为对应的搜索空间组的标识最小或最大。这样，终端设备可从互相关联的多个搜索空间中选择满足该预设条件的搜索空间，进而确定上行控制信道资源。例如，搜索空间 O1 k与搜索空间 O2 k关联，若O1大于O2，预设条件为对应的搜索空间组的标识最小，那么，满足该预设条件的搜索空间为搜索空间 O2 k。
又一种实施方式中，上述两种实施方式确定的第三搜索空间集合和第四搜索空间集合，还可以针对不同的聚合等级进行区分。
在一种实现方式中，终端设备根据控制资源集合和其关联的SS set O 1、SS set O 2确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：终端设备基于SS set O 1和控制资源集合确定第三搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l O1 1，搜索空间l O1 2，…，搜索空间l O1 N6}，N6小于或等于N4；终端设备基于SS set O 2和控制资源集合确定第四搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l O2 1，搜索空间l O2 2，…，搜索空间l O2 N7}，N7小于或等于N5。
其中，N6可等于或不等于N7。协议预定义或信令配置搜索空间之间的关联关系为：搜索空间l O1 k与搜索空间l O2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 6、N 7中的最小值,l表示搜索空间的聚合等级。
在另一种实现方式中，终端设备根据搜索空间组和其关联的CORESET M 1、CORESET M 2确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：终端设备基于CORESET M 1和搜索空间组确定第一搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l M1 1，搜索空间l M1 2，…，搜索空间l M1 N8}，N8小于或等于N1；终端设备基于CORESET M 2和搜索空间组确定第二搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l M2 1，搜索空间l M2 2，…，搜索空间l M2 N9}，N9小于或等于N2。
其中，N8可等于或不等于N9。协议预定义或信令配置搜索空间之间的关联关系为：搜索空间l M1 k与搜索空间l M2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 8、N 9中的最小值，l表示搜索空间的聚合等级。
在一种实施方式中，多个搜索空间包括检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间，以及与该搜索空间关联的至少一个搜索空间。在一种可能的实现方式中，终端设备从多个搜索空间中，选择满足预设条件的搜索空间之前，所述方法还包括：终端设备检测到下行控制信道时，基于上述各实施方式确定与检测到该下行控制信道的搜索空间关联的至少一个搜索空间，获得互相关联的多个搜索空间。
第二方面，本申请还提供一种信道传输方法。该方法中，终端设备根据检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE起始位置，确定上行控制信道资源；终端设备在该上行控制信道资源上发送上行控制信道。其中，检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间为多个搜索空间中的一个；该多个搜索空间中各搜索空间的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等。
其中，该多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具 有关联关系的搜索空间。
可见，针对多个搜索空间，每个搜索空间的CCE起始位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均等于同一值。从而使得终端设备基于该多个搜索空间中的任一搜索空间确定的上行控制信道资源是相同的。
一种可能的实施方式中，该多个搜索空间所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个。这样，上行控制信道资源集合中上行控制信道资源的个数大于PRI能够指示的上行控制信道资源的个数时，由于每个搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值相等，因此，终端设备可基于检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间所占的CCE位置，确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
另一种可能的实施方式中，该多个搜索空间分别为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间。可见，在下行控制信道重复传输的场景中，由于每个搜索空间的CCE起始位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均等于同一值，因此，终端设备可利用任一搜索空间，如检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间所占的CCE位置，确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
可见，第二方面所述的方法对互相关联的多个搜索空间增加了一定的限制，如上述比值均相等或等于同一值，从而对于终端设备来说，可唯一确定上行控制信道资源。进一步，终端设备正确译码出一个下行控制信息时，即可忽略该比值相同的其他搜索空间的检测，从而降低了终端设备的盲检复杂度。
第三方面，本申请还提供一种资源确定方法，该方法是从网络设备的角度进行阐述的。网络设备可执行第一方面所述的终端设备类似的操作，网络设备从多个搜索空间中，选择满足预设条件的搜索空间；所述网络设备根据满足预设条件的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE位置，确定上行控制信道资源。可见，网络设备可针对多个搜索空间，确定相同的，唯一的上行控制信道资源，从而获得上行控制信息。
其中，该多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具有关联关系的搜索空间。
其中，搜索空间的CCE位置可称为搜索空间所占的CCE位置。例如，在确定上行控制信道资源时，可基于该搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置或所占的CCE结束位置来确定。
一种实施方式中，多个搜索空间所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个。这样，上行控制信道资源集合中上行控制信道资源的个数时，可利用多个搜索空间中满足预设条件的搜索空间确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
另一种实施方式中，多个搜索空间分别为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间。可见，针对重复传输同一下行控制信道的场景，网络设备可利用多个搜索空间中满足预设条件的搜索空间确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
在一种实施方式中，所述预设条件包括以下的一个或多个：对应的控制资源集合的标识最小或最大；所在搜索空间组的标识最小或最大；对应的聚合等级最小或最大；CCE起始位置的标识最小或最大；控制资源集合的标识最大或最小。
在一种实施方式中，所述多个搜索空间是基于搜索空间组关联的一个或多个控制资源集合确定的；或者所述多个搜索空间是基于一个控制资源集合关联的多个搜索空间组确定的；或者所述多个搜索空间是基于信令配置的偏移offset值确定的。
该方面可参考第一方面的相关内容，此处不再详述。
第四方面，本申请还提供一种资源确定方法，该方法与第二方面相比，是从网络设备的角度进行阐述的。网络设备根据多个搜索空间中任一搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE位置，确定上行控制信道资源；所述网络设备在所述上行控制信道资源上接收上行控制信道；所述多个搜索空间中，各搜索空间所占的CCE位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等。
其中，该多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具有关联关系的搜索空间。
相应的，网络设备采用多个搜索空间下发下行控制信息或下行控制信道时，该多个搜索空间各搜索空间所占的CCE位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等。其中，各搜索空间所占的CCE位置可为各搜索空间分别所占的CCE起始位置或CCE结束位置。
一种可能的实施方式中，该多个搜索空间所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个。这样，上行控制信道资源集合中上行控制信道资源的个数大于PRI能够指示的上行控制信道资源的个数时，由于每个搜索空间所占的CCE位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值相等，因此，网络设备可基于其中的任一搜索空间所占的CCE位置，确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
另一种可能的实施方式中，该多个搜索空间分别为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间。可见，在下行控制信道重复传输的场景中，由于每个搜索空间的CCE位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均等于同一值，因此，网络设备可利用其中任一搜索空间确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
可见，网络设备可针对多个搜索空间中的任一个确定相同的上行控制信道资源，降低上行控制信息的检测复杂度。
该方面可参考第二方面的相关内容进行阐述，此处不再详述。

在具体实现过程中，处理器可用于进行，例如但不限于，基带相关处理，收发器可用于进行，例如但不限于，射频收发。上述器件可以分别设置在彼此独立的芯片上，也可以至少部分的或者全部的设置在同一块芯片上。例如，处理器可以进一步划分为模拟基带处理器和数字基带处理器。其中，模拟基带处理器可以与收发器集成在同一块芯片上，数字基带处理器可以设置在独立的芯片上。随着集成电路技术的不断发展，可以在同一块芯片上集成的器件越来越多，例如，数字基带处理器可以与多种应用处理器(例如但不限于图形处理器，多媒体处理器等)集成在同一块芯片之上。这样的芯片可以称为系统芯片(system on chip)。将各个器件独立设置在不同的芯片上，还是整合设置在一个或者多个芯片上，往往取决于产品设计的具体需要。本发明实施例对上述器件的具体实现形式不做限定。
第七方面，本申请还提供一种处理器，用于执行上述各种方法。在执行这些方法的过程中，上述方法中有关发送上述信息和接收上述信息的过程，可以理解为由处理器输出上述信息的过程，以及处理器接收输入的上述信息过程。具体来说，在输出上述信息时，处理器将该上述信息输出给收发器，以便由收发器进行发射。更进一步的，该上述信息在由处理器输出之后，还可能需要进行其他的处理，然后才到达收发器。类似的，处理器接收输入的上述信息时，收发器接收该上述信息，并将其输入处理器。更进一步的，在收发器收到该上述信息之后，该上述信息可能需要进行其他的处理，然后才输入处理器。
基于上述原理，举例来说，前述方法中提及的接收联合反馈信息可以理解为处理器输 入联合反馈信息。又例如，发送联合反馈信息可以理解为处理器输出联合反馈信息。
如此一来，对于处理器所涉及的发射、发送和接收等操作，如果没有特殊说明，或者，如果未与其在相关描述中的实际作用或者内在逻辑相抵触，则均可以更加一般性的理解为处理器输出和接收、输入等操作，而不是直接由射频电路和天线所进行的发射、发送和接收操作。
在具体实现过程中，上述处理器可以是专门用于执行这些方法的处理器，也可以是执行存储器中的计算机指令来执行这些方法的处理器，例如通用处理器。上述存储器可以为非瞬时性(non-transitory)存储器，例如只读存储器(read only memory，ROM)，其可以与处理器集成在同一块芯片上，也可以分别设置在不同的芯片上，本发明实施例对存储器的类型以及存储器与处理器的设置方式不做限定。

为便于理解本申请实施例的相关内容，对本申请实施例涉及的一些概念进行阐述。
1、多个搜索空间
本文所述的多个搜索空间可为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具有关联关系的搜索空间。
一种可能的实施方式中，该多个搜索空间确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个。例如，该多个搜索空间联合传输一个下行控制信息，终端设备需要检测所有搜索空间承载的下行控制信道，才能获得该下行控制信息。
另一种可能的实施方式中，该多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道或下行控制信息的搜索空间。即下行控制信道重复传输场景中，下行控制信道可在时域、频域、时频域或码域上重复传输，以提高下行控制信道的可靠性。本申请实施例中，重复传输的下行控制信道在各时域、频域、时频域或码域上的信道特性或参数可能不同，如各下行控制信道采用的码率不同，但携带的下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)相同。
例如，请参阅图3，图3是本申请实施例提供的一种PDCCH重复传输的示意图。如图3所示，物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel，PDCCH)可以在两个时域资源上重复传输。其中，每个时域资源上重复传输的PDCCH的信道特性或参数可能不同，但承载的下行控制信息相同。
再例如，请参阅图4，图4是本申请实施例提供的一种PDCCH重复传输的另一示意图。如图4所示，物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel，PDCCH)可以在两个频域资源上重复传输。其中，每个频域资源上重复传输的PDCCH的信道特性或参数可能不同，但承载的下行控制信息相同。
2、上行控制信道资源
终端设备可在上行控制信道资源上反馈上行控制信息。上行控制信息包括混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)-确认(ACK)信息和信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI)等。
上行控制信道资源可根据高层参数和下行控制信息确定。
一种实施方式中，终端设备根据上行控制信息的比特数从上行控制信道资源池中，选择对应的上行控制信道资源集合；终端设备根据下行控制信息中的上行控制信道资源指示，从上行控制信道资源集合中确定上行控制信道资源。
上行控制信道资源池是由高层参数或高层信令，如RRC信令，为终端设备配置的。该上行控制信道资源池包括多个上行控制信道资源集合。不同上行控制信道资源集合对应不同的上行控制信息比特区间。
上行控制信道资源指示为物理上行控制信道资源指示(PUCCH resource indicator,PRI)。DCI中PRI占用3个比特，当上行控制信道资源集合小于8个的上行控制信道资源，PRI可用于分别指示最多8个上行控制信道资源。
另一种实施方式中，上行控制信道资源池中的上行控制信道资源集合可包含大于8个的上行控制信道资源，如包含32个上行控制信道资源，仅采用PRI无法完全指示。故针对上行控制信道资源的个数大于8的上行控制信道资源集合，还需结合承载DCI的搜索空间的控制信道元素(control channel element，CCE)起始位置，从上行控制信道资源集合中确定上行控制信道资源。
如上述两种实施方式所述，终端设备根据该DCI中的资源指示信息和CCE起始位置确定的上行控制信道资源的资源编号r PUCCH可采用以下公式确定：
Figure PCTCN2019126787-appb-000001
其中，mod表示求余；N CCE,p是该DCI所在的控制资源集合(CORESET)中的CCE总个数，是由高层信令配置的；n CCE,p是承载该DCI的PDCCH所占据的CCE起始位置或承载该DCI的搜索空间的CCE位置(如CCE起始位置)；Δ PRI是该DCI中的资源指示信息PRI；R PUCCH该CORESET所在的CORESET组被分配的PUCCH资源的总个数。
3、控制信道元素(control channel element，CCE)
PDCCH所占据的时频资源的基本组成单元为CCE。一个PDCCH占据一个或多个CCE。占据的CCE越多，表示PDCCH的可靠性越高，消耗的资源也越多。一个用户或终端设备特定的PDCCH占据了一部分CCE，那么该部分CCE就不会承载其他用户或终端设备的PDCCH。
CCE是由6个资源元素组(resource element group，REG)组成的。一个REG的资源是频域上的一个资源块(resource block，RB)和时域上的一个符号组成的。CCE与REG之间具有映射关系，该映射关系可为直接映射或交织映射。连续的6个REG可组成一个CCE，不连续的6个REG可进行交织后映射为一个CCE等。
4、控制资源集合、搜索空间组
控制资源集合(control resource set，COREST)定义了检测PDCCH的频域的可能性。网络侧可以给终端设备配置CORESET的标识、PDCCH的DMRS加扰ID、频域预编码粒度、符号长度、频域位置、CCE与REG之间的映射方式、接收PDCCH的准共址假设以及该CORESET中所收到的PDCCH的DCI中是否有TCI域等信息。
搜索空间组(search space set，SS set)定义了检测PDCCH的时域上的可能性。网络侧可以给终端设备配置SS set的标识、其关联的CORESET的标识、PDCCH的检测时间单元周期和时间单元偏移、时域检测机制(pattern)、对于各聚合等级可能的候选PDCCH(PDCCH candidate)的个数(如为0个)、SS set的类型(表示是公共的还是终端设备特定的；公共的表示还有其他用户可以检测这个SS set，终端设备特定的表示没有其他用户可以检测到这个SS set)、与DCI格式相关的配置(如要检测的DCI的格式可能性)，连续长度等。
另外，下文所述的搜索空间集合是指终端设备基于网络设备侧配置的搜索空间组、控制资源集合确定的一个或多个搜索空间，所构成的集合。即本文所述的搜索空间集合不同于搜索空间组的概念。
其中，时域检测pattern用于指示终端设备在一个时隙内可能的检测PDCCH的符号位置。如时域检测pattern可以指示一个或者多个符号位置。这些符号位置分别对应了可能的PDCCH所开始的第一个符号位置。如时域检测pattern可以指示符号位置l1、l2、l3，则终端设备可能分别在以符号l1、符号l2、符号l3为起始符号的位置检测到PDCCH。
其中，对于各聚合等级可能的PDCCH candidate的个数是指对于一个搜索空间内，各聚合等级各自可能的PDCCH的备选个数。例如，聚合等级1可能的PDCCH的备选的个数；聚合等级2可能的PDCCH的备选的个数。
其中，连续长度是指网络侧为终端设备配置的SS set在时域时间单元的持续长度。以时域时间单元为时隙为例，连续长度是d，则表示在一个时隙为起始的，持续d个时隙都可以用于检测PDCCH。其中，该起始的时隙为满足检测时间单元周期和时间单元偏移的时隙。
5、终端设备的盲检过程
终端设备根据控制资源集合(CORESET)和搜索空间组(search space set，SS set)等上述概念阐述的第4点所述的各信息，可确定一时频资源。请参阅图5，根据控制资源集合M与搜索空间组O确定如图5所示的一时频资源，其中，M表示控制资源集合的标识，O表示搜索空间组的标识。该时频资源包含很多个CCE。一个搜索空间由该时频资源上的l个CCE组成，l表示聚合等级。因此，终端设备基于CORESET和SS set可以确定多个搜索空间，终端设备通过盲检各个搜索空间，以接收下行控制信息。
其中，一个搜索空间的CCE起始位置与聚合等级l有关，如起始CCE的标识或索引号是l的整数倍。CORESET用于确定频域范围和时域持续符号时间，SS set用于确定时域起始符号位置。搜索空间用于表示终端设备可能检测到PDCCH的时域资源。
可见，在多个搜索空间联合传输或重复传输同一下行控制信息，或多个搜索空间确定的PRI为同一个的情况，各搜索空间的CCE位置不同，采用上述公式确定上行控制信道资源时，当上行控制信道资源集合中的上行控制信道资源个数大于8个时，无法根据上述公式唯一确定出上行控制信道资源。
例如，在下行控制信道重复传输的场景，如图3、图4所示，终端设备可在多个搜索空间上检测到PDCCH，并且所检测到的PDCCH携带的DCI相同。但对于终端设备来说，在下行控制信道重复传输的场景，终端设备不需要检测出所有搜索空间的PDCCH，只需要正确检测出其中一个搜索空间的PDCCH即可。
例如，在高频传输场景，由于信道的阻塞率比较高，终端设备能够检测出所有PDCCH的概率更低，还可能会漏检一些PDCCH。由于重复传输的PDCCH的DCI相同，即PRI相同，但是承载DCI的搜索空间不同，即CCE位置不同，故会导致终端设备确定的CCE起始位置根据检测到PDCCH的搜索空间的不同而不同，进而在上行控制信道资源集合中上行控制信道资源个数大于8个时，无法根据上述公式唯一确定出上行控制信道资源。
为了解决该问题，本申请提供一种资源确定方法。该方法中，终端设备可从多个搜索空间中选择满足预设条件的搜索空间，从而根据该满足预设条件的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE起始位置，确定上行控制信道资源。可见，该资源确定方法能够从多个搜索空间中选择满足预设条件的搜索空间，从而能够针对确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
本申请还提供一种信道传输方法，该方法中，多个搜索空间中各搜索空间的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等，从而，如上述公式可知，可根据检测到的其中一个下行控制信道的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE位置，确定唯一的上 行控制信道资源，进而在该上行控制信道资源上发送上行控制信道。
以下结合附图对本申请实施例进行阐述。
请参阅图6，图6是本申请实施例提供的一种资源确定方法的流程示意图。如图6所示，该资源确定方法可包括以下步骤：
101、终端设备从多个搜索空间中，选择满足预设条件的搜索空间；
其中，所述多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具有关联关系的搜索空间。
102、终端设备根据满足预设条件的搜索空间的CCE位置，例如控制信道元素CCE起始位置，确定上行控制信道资源。
可见，图6所示的资源确定方法可根据检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE位置，确定唯一的上行控制信道资源。
图6所述的多个搜索空间可基于搜索空间组关联的一个或多个控制资源集合确定；或者可基于一个控制资源集合关联的多个搜索空间组确定；或者可基于信令配置的偏移offset值确定；或者可由网络侧进行配置或者协议预定义；或者根据网络侧配置的相关参数进行确定。可选的，确定的多个搜索空间可为网络设备通过可选的实施方式配置的关联的或互相关联的多个搜索空间。因此，如图7所示，与图6所示的资源确定方法相比，终端设备在执行步骤101之前，还可以包括：
103、终端设备确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
也就是说，终端设备根据检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间，确定与该检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间相关联的搜索空间，从而获得互相关联的多个搜索空间。即检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间为该互相关联的多个搜索空间中的一个。
相应的，网络设备也可以执行步骤101至步骤102，进而基于确定的上行控制信道资源接收上行控制信息。可选的，网络设备还可以执行步骤103中确定互相关联的多个搜索空间的操作。
以下结合网络设备可能配置的关联关系，从终端设备的角度，对步骤103、步骤101的可能的实施方式进行阐述。需要注意的是，本申请实施例包括但不限于以下所述的实施方式一至四。
实施方式一：一个SS set关联多个CORESET
该实施方式中，网络设备为终端设备配置一个SS set，以及该SS set关联的多个CORESET。步骤103可包括：终端设备根据该SS set和其关联的多个CORESET，确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
可选的，该多个CORESET属于不同的控制资源集合组(CORESET group)或不同的控制资源池索引(CORESET pool index)。相应的，该多个CORESET分别所属的CORESET group或CORESET pool index是通过每个CORESET中的CORESET group的标识或CORESET pool index确定的。CORESET group的标识可为缺省的，或为0、1等。当CORESET group的标识是缺省时，可以默认为0。
一种可能的实现方式中，假设一个搜索空间组与两个控制资源集合相关联，两个控制资源集合分别为控制资源集合M 1和控制资源集合M 2。例如，搜素空间组和控制资源集合M 1组成的时频资源，搜索空间组和控制资源集合M 2组成的时频资源，分别如图8所示。其中，搜素空间组和控制资源集合M 1组成的时频资源包含的搜索空间为第一搜索空间集合；搜素空间组和控制资源集合M 2组成的时频资源包含的搜索空间为第二搜索空间集合。
如图9所示，步骤103中终端设备根据该搜索空间组和其关联的多个控制资源集合，确定关联的多个搜索空间，包括：
1031、终端设备基于搜索空间组和控制资源集合M 1确定第一搜索空间集合，第一搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 M1 1，搜索空间 M1 2，…，搜索空间 M1 N1；
1032、终端设备基于该搜索空间组和控制资源集合M 2确定第二搜索空间集合，第二搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 M2 1，搜索空间 M2 2，…，搜索空间 M2 N2；
1033、终端设备确定第一搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系，即搜索空间 M1 k与搜索空间 M2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 1、N 2中的最小值。
其中，N1表示第一搜索空间集合中的搜索空间的个数；N2表示第一搜索空间集合中的搜索空间的个数。N1可等于或不等于N2。终端设备确定第一搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。即搜索空间 M1 k与搜索空间 M2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 1、N 2中的最小值。
可选的，1033中终端设备还可根据协议预定义确定互相关联的搜索空间。例如，协议预定义：第一搜索空间集合中后K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中后K个搜索空间之间具有一对一、或一对多、或多对一的关联关系。再例如，第一搜索空间集合中选择K个搜索空间与第二搜索空间集合中选择K个搜索空间之间具有一对一、或一对多、或多对一的关联关系。又例如，第一搜索空间集合中包含多个聚合等级，第二搜索空间集合中包含多个聚合等级，那么，分别来自两个搜索空间集合且聚合等级相同的多个搜索空间之间互相关联。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，假设一个搜索空间组与三个控制资源集合相关联，则可采用类似上述实现方式确定每三个搜索空间相关联，可在该三个关联的搜索空间上重复传输相同的下行控制信息。
该实施方式中，互相关联的搜索空间对应的控制资源集合的标识不同，预设条件可为对应的控制资源集合的标识最小或最大。这样，步骤101中终端设备可从互相关联的多个搜索空间中选择满足该预设条件的搜索空间，进而确定上行控制信道资源。例如，搜索空间 M1 k与搜索空间 M2 k关联，若M1大于M2，预设条件为对应的控制资源集合的标识最小，那么，满足该预设条件的搜索空间为搜索空间 M2 k。
可选的，该实施方式中，步骤101中终端设备可从互相关联的多个搜索空间中选择满足该预设条件的搜索空间可以为：终端设备从互相关联的多个搜索空间中，选择所占的CCE起始位置最小或最大的搜索空间。例如，搜索空间 M1 k与搜索空间 M2 k关联，若搜索空间 M1 k所占的CCE起始位置小于搜索空间 M2 k所占的CCE起始位置，那么，选择的搜索空间可为所占的CCE起始位置最小的搜索空间 M1 k。
实施方式二：N个SS set关联M个CORESET，N大于或等于1，M大于或等于1
该实施方式中，网络设备可为终端设备配置N个SS set及N个SS set关联的M个CORESET。相应的，步骤103可包括：终端设备可根据该SS set及其关联的CORESET确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
一种可能的实现方式中，如图10所示，终端设备可根据该SS set及其关联的CORESET确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，可包括：
1034、终端设备基于N个SS set和M个CORESET确定一个搜索空间集合；
1035、终端设备根据每个搜索空间的聚合等级或/和CCE起始位置从小到大的顺序，对该搜索空间集合进行排序，获得：搜索空间1，搜索空间2，…，搜索空间N 3；
1036、终端设备根据信令配置的偏移offset值从该搜索空间集合中确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
一种可能的实现方式中，步骤1035中对该搜索空间集合中的搜索空间进行排序，可优先按照聚合等级将该搜索空间集合划分为各聚合等级对应的搜索空间子集合，每个搜索空间子集合中搜索空间的聚合等级相同。步骤1036中，终端设备可根据信令配置的偏移offset值从同一搜索空间子集合中确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。该实施方式是从同一聚合等级对应的搜索空间子集合中确定互相关联的搜索空间的，因此，可降低偏移offset值的取值范围，进而，降低该offset值的比特开销。
另一种可能的实现方式中，步骤1035可以为：终端设备根据一定的规则将该搜索空间集合中的各搜索空间进行排序。其中，该一定的规则可以是根据所占的CCE起始位置、对应的搜索空间组的标识ID、对应的控制资源集合的标识、对应的聚合等级中的一种或多种进行排序。以下对可选的排序方式进行举例阐述。
例如，步骤1035中对该搜索空间集合中的搜索空间进行排序，可优先按照聚合等级排序，再针对聚合等级相同的搜索空间按照CCE位置进行排序。其中，该CCE位置可为CCE起始位置。进而，步骤1036中可从排序后的搜索空间集合中确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
再例如，步骤1035中对该搜索空间集合中的搜索空间进行排序，可优先按照对应的控制资源集合的标识进行排序(如从大到小或从小到大)，然后可按照对应的搜索空间组的标识进行排序(如从大到小或从小到大)，最后，按照对应的聚合等级或所占的CCE位置进行排序。进而，步骤1036中可从排序后的搜索空间集合中确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。例如，方式一，搜索空间k与搜索空间(k+offset值)关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,N 3-offset值]，例如，搜索空间1与搜索空间(1+offset值)关联。
或者方式二，搜索空间k、搜索空间(k+offset值)、…、搜索空间(k+offset值*x)多个之间互相关联，其中，x为大于1的整数，(k+offset值*x)小于或等于N 3，k的取值区间为[1,offset值*x]。例如，k＝1，x＝2，搜索空间1、搜索空间(1+offset值)和搜索空间(1+offset值*2)三者互相关联。
可选的，上述各实施方式确定互相关联的多个搜索空间后，可从中选择满足以下预设条件的一个搜索空间，以确定上行控制信道资源。该预设条件可包括以下一个或多个：对应的控制资源集合的标识最小或最大；所在搜索空间组的标识最小或最大；对应的聚合等 级最小或最大；CCE起始位置的标识最小或最大；对应的控制资源集合组的标识最小或最大。例如，搜索空间1与搜索空间(1+offset值)关联，预设条件为CCE起始位置的标识最小，那么假设搜索空间1所占的CCE起始位置小于搜索空间(1+offset值)所占的CCE起始位置，则满足该预设条件的搜索空间为搜索空间1。
本文中，CCE起始位置或CCE结束位置的大小可指CCE起始位置的标识或CCE结束位置的标识的大小。
实施方式三：一个CORESET关联多个SS set
该实施方式中，网络设备为终端设备配置多个CORESET，针对其中的某个CORESET关联多个SS set，步骤103可包括：终端设备根据该CORESET和其关联的多个SS set，确定互相关联的多个搜索空间。
一种可能的实现方式中，假设两个搜索空间组与一个控制资源集合相关联，两个搜索空间组分别为SS set O 1和SS set O 2。例如，搜索空间组O 1和控制资源集合组成的时频资源，搜索空间组O 2和控制资源集合组成的时频资源，分别如图11所示。其中，搜素空间组O 1和控制资源集合组成的时频资源包含的搜索空间为第三搜索空间集合；搜素空间组O 2和控制资源集合组成的时频资源包含的搜索空间为第四搜索空间集合。
相应的，如图12所示，终端设备可基于CORESET和关联的多个SS set，确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：
1037、终端设备基于SS set O 1和CORESET确定第三搜索空间集合，第三搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 O1 1，搜索空间 O1 2，…，搜索空间 O1 N4；
1038、终端设备基于SS set O 2和CORESET确定第四搜索空间集合，第四搜索空间集合包括：搜索空间 O2 1，搜索空间 O2 2，…，搜索空间 O2 N5；
1039、终端设备确定第三搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间与第四搜索空间集合中的前K个搜索空间之间具有一一对应的关联关系。即搜索空间 O1 k与搜索空间 O2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 4、N 5中的最小值。
其中，N4表示第三搜索空间集合中的搜索空间的个数；N5表示第四搜索空间集合中的搜索空间的个数。N4可等于或不等于N5。
其中，步骤1039的可选的实施方式可参见上述实施方式一中步骤1033的相关阐述，此处不再详述。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，假设网络设备配置三个搜索空间组与一个控制资源集合相关联，则可采用类似上述实现方式确定每三个搜索空间相关联，可在三个关联的搜索空间上重复传输相同的下行控制信息。
该实施方式中，互相关联的搜索空间对应的搜索空间组的标识不同，预设条件可为对应的搜索空间组的标识最小或最大。这样，终端设备可从互相关联的多个搜索空间中选择满足该预设条件的搜索空间，进而确定上行控制信道资源。例如，搜索空间 O1 k与搜索空间 O2 k关联，若O1大于O2，预设条件为对应的搜索空间组的标识最小，那么，满足该预设条件的搜索空间为搜索空间 O2 k。
实施方式四：针对实施方式一、三中确定的多个搜索空间集合，可进一步结合聚合等级从中确定关联的搜索空间
在一种实现方式中，终端设备根据控制资源集合和其关联的SS set O 1、SS set O 2确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：
终端设备基于SS set O 1和控制资源集合确定第三搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l O1 1，搜索空间l O1 2，…，搜索空间l O1 N6}，N6小于或等于N4；
终端设备基于SS set O 2和控制资源集合确定第四搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l O2 1，搜索空间l O2 2，…，搜索空间l O2 N7}，N7小于或等于N5。
其中，N6可等于或不等于N7。协议预定义或信令配置搜索空间之间的关联关系为：搜索空间l O1 k与搜索空间l O2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 6、N 7中的最小值,l表示搜索空间的聚合等级。
在另一种实现方式中，终端设备根据搜索空间组和其关联的CORESET M 1、CORESET M 2确定互相关联的多个搜索空间，包括：
终端设备基于CORESET M 1和搜索空间组确定第一搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l M1 1，搜索空间l M1 2，…，搜索空间l M1 N8}，N8小于或等于N1；
终端设备基于CORESET M 2和搜索空间组确定第二搜索空间集合中，聚合等级l的搜索空间分别为{搜索空间l M2 1，搜索空间l M2 2，…，搜索空间l M2 N9}，N9小于或等于N2。
其中，N8可等于或不等于N9。协议预定义或信令配置搜索空间之间的关联关系为：搜索空间l M1 k与搜索空间l M2 k关联，其中，k的取值区间为[1,K]，K为N 8、N 9中的最小值，l表示搜索空间的聚合等级。
请参阅图13，图13是本申请实施例提供的一种信道传输方法的流程示意图。其中，图13所述的信道传输方法通过对互相关联的多个搜索空间增加了一定的限制，从而对于终端设备来说，可唯一确定上行控制信道资源。具体的，如图13所示，可包括：
201、终端设备根据检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间的控制信道元素CCE位置，确定上行控制信道资源；
其中，检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间为多个搜索空间中的一个；所述多个搜索空间为重复传输同一下行控制信道的搜索空间，或所确定的上行控制信道资源指示PRI为一个的搜索空间，或为联合传输同一下行控制信息的搜索空间等具有关联关系的搜索空间。该多个搜索空间中各搜索空间的CCE位置(如CCE起始位置)与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等。也就是说，针对该多个搜索空间中的每个搜索空间，该搜索空间的CCE位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等。
本文中，该CCE位置可为CCE对应的标识的起始标识，或CCE起始位置可为CCE对应的标识或CCE的起始标识。
202、终端设备在该上行控制信道资源上发送上行控制信道。
相应的，终端设备执行步骤201之前，网络设备可确定多个搜索空间，该多个搜索空间中各搜索空间的CCE位置(如CCE起始位置)与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等。进而，网络设备可在该多个搜索空间上联合发送同一个下行控制信息或 重复发送同一下行控制信道。
也就是说，对于终端设备侧来说，无论是下行控制信道重复传输场景、或者是多个搜索空间联合传输同一下行控制信息的场景、或者是多个搜索空间所确定的PRI为同一个的场景，终端设备可基于检测到下行控制信道的搜索空间确定上行控制信道资源。对于网络设备侧来说，在上述可选的场景，网络设备发送下行控制信息的下行控制信道所采用的多个搜索空间中各搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值是相等的。
一种实施方式中，终端设备不期望接收到的关联的多个搜索空间中各搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值是不相等的；或者，终端设备期望接收到的关联的多个搜索空间中各搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值是相等的；或者，网络设备下发的关联的多个搜索空间中各搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值是相等的。
本申请实施例中，网络设备可预先为终端设备配置关联的多个搜索空间或通过协议预定义方式告知终端设备关联的该多个搜索空间，该关联的多个搜索空间中各搜索空间所占的CCE起始位置与其对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值是相等的。
例如，采用上述公式确定上行共享信道资源或上行共享信道资源的索引时，每个搜索空间对应的
Figure PCTCN2019126787-appb-000002
均相等。
进而，当终端设备确定下行控制信息的传输是上述所述的可选的场景之一时，启用该关联的多个搜索空间，根据该多个搜索空间中的一个搜索空间所占的CCE位置确定上行控制信道资源。当终端设备确定下行控制信息的传输不是上述所述的可选的场景之一时，不启用该关联的多个搜索空间。
或者，当终端设备在检测到的下行控制信息包括一指示或一指示为预设值时，可确定该下行控制信息是通过关联的多个搜索空间联合传输的或重复传输的，那么终端设备可启用该关联的多个搜索空间，进而执行步骤201至202。
可见，图12所述的信道传输方法中互相关联的多个搜索空间满需一定的条件，如上述比值均相等或等于同一值，从而对于终端设备来说，可唯一确定上行控制信道资源。同时，终端设备正确译码出一个下行控制信息时，即可忽略该比值相同的其他搜索空间的检测，从而降低了终端设备的盲检复杂度。
相应的，从网络侧的角度来看，网络设备向终端设备发送下行控制信息时，所采用的搜索空间也需满足“搜索空间的CCE起始位置与该搜索空间对应的控制资源集合中CCE个数之间的比值均相等”的条件，从而，使得终端设备和网络设备均能够唯一确定出上行控制信道资源。
本申请实施例中，一个下行控制信息是通过下行控制信道重复传输(或称下行控制信道传输增强)的，或是通过多个下行控制信道(或多个搜索空间)联合传输的，可通过显示方式通知，或隐式方式通知，或显示方式结合隐式方式等通知。
例如，可对SS set中包含的CORESET数量限制，当CORESET数量超过1个，此时 终端设备可以认为下行控制信息是通过下行控制信道重复传输的或多个下行控制信道联合传输的，相应的搜索空间之间是有关联的，或者可以规定此时PDCCH重复传输。
再例如，对SS set中包含的多个CORESET是否属于同一CORESET组进行限制。当不同的CORESET所包含的CORESET组不同时，即多个CORESET不属于同一CORESET组时，可以认为下行控制信息是通过下行控制信道重复传输的或多个下行控制信道联合传输的，相应的搜索空间之间是有关联的。其中，CORESET中所包含的CORESET组是省略时，默认为0。
再例如，网络设备可下发一条信令，通知采用下行控制信道重复传输方案或多个下行控制信道联合传输方案，当终端知道采用了下行控制信道重复传输方案或多个下行控制信道联合传输方案后，上述各实施方式所述的关联关系才成立或启用。
