In order to better understand the technical solutions described in any of the embodiments of the present disclosure, first, the repeated transmission of PUCCH is described:

In one embodiment, the PUCCH is used to carry uplink control information.

In one embodiment, the PUCCH format is determined according to the uplink control information to be transmitted.

In one embodiment, the PUCCH formats include: a short PUCCH format and a long PUCCH format.

In one embodiment, the short PUCCH format is a PUCCH format occupying 1 to 2 symbols.

In one embodiment, the short PUCCH format may carry 1 to 2 bits of information.

In one embodiment, the long PUCCH format is a PUCCH format occupying 4 to 14 symbols.

In one embodiment, the long PUCCH format may carry more than 2 bits of information.

In one embodiment, the uplink control information is carried in a short PUCCH format. In this way, the feedback delay of the hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ, Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest) can be shortened,

In one embodiment, the uplink control information is carried in the long PUCCH format. In this way, longer durations can ensure high coverage strengths.

In one embodiment, the wireless communication system does not support transmission of PUCCH across slot boundaries or across sub-slot boundaries, nor does it support repeated transmission of PUCCH based on sub-slots.

In one embodiment, for the short PUCCH format, repeated transmission of PUCCH is not supported.

For example, format 0 or format 2 does not support repeated transmission of PUCCH.

In one embodiment, for the long PUCCH format, only slot-based repeated transmission of PUCCH is supported.

For example, format 1, format 3 or format 4, only supports the repeated transmission of slot-based PUCCH.

In one embodiment, the number of transmissions for the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is semi-statically configured.

In the related art, the repeated transmission of the time-slot-based PUCCH cannot take into account the time delay requirement while ensuring that the reliability meets the requirement. In this way, in the URLLC scenario or some beamforming scenarios, the delay is relatively large.

Meanwhile, the repeated transmission of the PUCCH based on the slot does not support the repeated transmission of the PUCCH in the short PUCCH format. In this way, there is no corresponding repetition enhancement scheme for format0 and format2.

In one embodiment, the PUCCH format includes: a short PUCCH format and/or a long PUCCH format.

In one embodiment, the short PUCCH format is a PUCCH format occupying 1 to 2 symbols. For example, format 0 or format 2.

In one embodiment, the short PUCCH format may carry 1 to 2 bits of information.

In one embodiment, the long PUCCH format is a PUCCH format occupying 4 to 14 symbols. For example, format 1, format3, or format 4.

In one embodiment, the terminal only supports the short PUCCH format.

In one embodiment, the terminal supports both short and long PUCCH formats.

In one embodiment, the PUCCH is used to carry uplink control information.

In one embodiment, the repeated transmission of the PUCCH may be repeated transmission of the same data using different PUCCHs.

For example, the same uplink control information is transmitted using the first PUCCH, the second PUCCH and the third PUCCH, respectively. Here, the first PUCCH, the second PUCCH and the third PUCCH are different PUCCH resources.

In one embodiment, since different PUCCHs repeatedly transmit the same data, different PUCCHs may be combined, and the combined PUCCHs may be used for decoding to obtain uplink control information. In this way, the reliability of transmitting uplink control information can be improved.

In one embodiment, the PUCCH may be selected from a PUCCH resource set.

For example, if the PUCCH resource set includes: the first PUCCH, the second PUCCH, the third PUCCH, the fourth PUCCH, the fifth PUCCH, and the sixth PUCCH, the first PUCCH, the second PUCCH, and the third PUCCH can be selected to repeat the PUCCH transmission.

In one embodiment, a single transmission of PUCCH may be any one of repeated transmissions of PUCCH.

In one embodiment, the time unit occupied by the transmission of the PUCCH may be a symbol.

In one embodiment, the number of time units occupied by the PUCCH for each repeated transmission is the same.

In one embodiment, the time domain starting position is the position where the PUCCH starting symbol is located in the slot or subslot where it is located.

For example, if the PUCCH occupies the 3rd to 7th symbols of the time slot or subslot, the 3rd symbol is the time domain starting position of the PUCCH.

In one embodiment, the starting position in the time domain is the position of the first symbol occupied by the PUCCH transmitted in the sub-slot.

In one embodiment, the starting position in the time domain is the position of the first symbol occupied by the PUCCH transmitted in the time slot.

In this way, the number of repeated transmissions can be adaptively adjusted according to the transmission quality of the channel.

In one embodiment, the repetition time unit of the repeated transmission of the PUCCH in the time domain may be the repetition granularity.

In one embodiment, repeated transmissions are performed at the granularity of time slots.

In another embodiment, repeated transmissions are performed with sub-slot granularity.

In one embodiment, it is determined that cross-slot transmission is supported in response to the symbols occupied by the PUCCH transmission may exceed the boundaries of the timeslot.

In one embodiment, in response to the PUCCH format supported by the terminal for repeated transmission of PUCCH being the first format, it is determined that the configuration parameter of repeated transmission of PUCCH is the first configuration parameter; wherein the first configuration parameter at least indicates the The number of times and the time domain start position of each PUCCH transmission; the time domain start position of each PUCCH transmission within the time unit is the same.

In one embodiment, in response to the PUCCH format supported by the terminal for repeated transmission of PUCCH being the long PUCCH format, that is, the first format is the long PUCCH format, the configuration parameter of the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is determined to be the first configuration parameter.

In one embodiment, the first configuration parameter at least indicates the number of repetitions and the time domain starting position of each time the PUCCH transmission is performed in the time slot or sub-slot.

In one embodiment, the time domain start position may be the position of the first symbol of the occupied symbol in the time slot or subslot for the PUCCH transmission.

In one embodiment, for PUCCH transmission in the first format, since each time slot contains the same number of symbols and each sub-slot contains the same number of symbols, when it is determined that a time slot or a sub-slot contains the same number of symbols After the time domain starting position of the PUCCH transmission, the time domain starting position of the PUCCH transmission in each other time slot or sub-slot can be determined.

For example, for the PUCCH transmission of the first format, the repeated transmission includes 5 PUCCH transmissions, and the position of the first symbol of the symbol occupied by the first PUCCH transmission in the time slot is A, then in the remaining 4 PUCCH transmissions , the starting position of the symbol occupied by each PUCCH transmission is the A position of the corresponding time slot.

In this way, the time domain start position of the symbol occupied by each PUCCH transmission of the PUCCH repeated transmission can be obtained through one indication.

In one embodiment, in response to the PUCCH format supported by the terminal for repeated transmission of PUCCH being the second format, it is determined that the configuration parameter for repeated transmission of PUCCH is the second configuration parameter; wherein the second configuration parameter indicates the first PUCCH The time domain start position of transmission; the time domain start position of the first PUCCH transmission is used to determine the time domain start position of the (N-1)th PUCCH transmission; wherein, N is a positive integer greater than 2.

In one embodiment, in response to the PUCCH format supported by the terminal for repeated transmission of PUCCH being the short PUCCH format, that is, the second format is the short PUCCH format, the configuration parameter of the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is determined to be the second configuration parameter.

In one embodiment, the second configuration parameter at least indicates the time domain starting position of the first PUCCH transmission in the time slot or sub-slot.

In one embodiment, the time domain start position may be the position of the first symbol of the occupied symbol in the slot or subslot of the first PUCCH transmission.

In one embodiment, for the PUCCH transmission of the second format, the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is a continuous repeated transmission.

Here, for the PUCCH transmission of the second format, since the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is continuous repeated transmission, after determining the time domain starting position of the first PUCCH transmission of the repeated transmission, each PUCCH transmission of the repeated transmission of the PUCCH can be transmitted according to the The continuous relationship between them determines the starting position of the symbol occupied by any PUCCH transmission. Therefore, the second configuration parameter only needs to indicate the time domain start position of the first PUCCH transmission, and the time domain start position of any PUCCH transmission can be determined by the time domain start position of the first PUCCH transmission.

In one embodiment, in response to the PUCCH format supported by the terminal for performing the repeated transmission of the PUCCH being the first format and the second format, the configuration parameters of the repeated transmission of the PUCCH are determined according to the priorities of the first format and the second format.

In one embodiment, the first format is a long PUCCH format, and the second format is a short PUCCH format.

In one embodiment, the supported PUCCH format for repeated transmission of PUCCH is the first format and the second format may be repeated transmission of PUCCH in the time domain, supporting both the transmission of PUCCH in the first format and the second format transmission of the PUCCH.

In one embodiment, the first format and the second format have different priorities.

In one embodiment, in response to the priority of the first format being higher than the priority of the second format, the repeated transmission of the PUCCH in the first format is preferentially performed based on the first configuration parameter, and then the second format is performed based on the second configuration parameter. Repeated transmission of formatted PUCCH.

In one embodiment, in response to the priority of the first format being lower than the priority of the second format, the repeated transmission of the PUCCH in the second format is preferentially performed based on the second configuration parameter, and then the first format is performed based on the first configuration parameter. Repeated transmission of formatted PUCCH.

In one embodiment, the terminal receives configuration parameters configured by the base station to the terminal through signaling. Here, the signaling may be Radio Resource Control (RRC, Radio Resource Control) signaling, Media Access Control (MAC, Media Access Control) signaling, or Downlink Control Information (DCI, Downlink Control Information) signaling.

In one embodiment, when the PUCCH of a long PUCCH format (for example, format 1, format 3 or format 4) needs to be repeatedly transmitted, in order to enhance coverage or enhance the reliability of data transmission, a time slot or sub-slot-based PUCCH may be used. Repeat transmission.

In one embodiment, for the PUCCH transmission in the long PUCCH format, each time slot or sub-slot includes one PUCCH transmission, and each PUCCH transmission of the repeated transmission has a uniform time domain starting position, and at the same time Each PUCCH transmission occupies the same number of symbols.

In one embodiment, if the PUCCH transmission occupies symbols of downlink transmission or unavailable reserved resources, this PUCCH transmission is skipped.

For example, referring to FIG. 2b, for PUCCH transmission in the long PUCCH format, the number of repeated transmissions of PUCCH is 4; Transmission, the sub-slots in Figure 2b include sub-slot1, sub-slot2, sub-slot3 and sub-slot4, a total of four sub-slots, four of which are adjacent sub-slots; the time domain starting position is For the symbol numbered 1, as shown in Fig. 2b, the time domain starting positions of the symbols occupied by the PUCCH transmitted in sub-slot1, sub-slot2, sub-slot3 and sub-slot4 are all symbol 1. The number of symbols occupied by the transmission of each PUCCH is the same. In FIG. 2b, the number of symbols occupied by each PUCCH transmission is 5.

For another example, please refer to Figure 2c, the number of times of repeated transmission of PUCCH is 2; it is the repeated transmission of PUCCH based on time slots, that is, each time slot corresponds to one transmission of PUCCH, and the time slot in Figure 2c includes slot1 and slot2 , a total of two time slots; the time domain starting position is the symbol numbered 1, as shown in Figure 2c, the time domain starting positions of the symbols occupied by the PUCCH transmitted in slot1 and slot2 are both symbol 1. The number of symbols occupied by the transmission of each PUCCH is the same. In FIG. 2c, the number of occupied symbols is 10. Here, the long PUCCH format is used for repeated transmission, which has good reliability and enhanced coverage.

In one embodiment, when the PUCCH in the short PUCCH format (for example, format 0 or format 2) needs to be repeatedly transmitted, in order to support multiple transmission reception points, beamforming or hybrid automatic retransmission, continuous retransmission of PUCCH retransmission may be used In this way, repeated transmission of continuous PUCCH is performed.

In one embodiment, for PUCCH transmission in short PUCCH format, PUCCH transmission across slots and sub-slots is supported, and when a slot boundary or a sub-slot boundary is encountered, no segmentation is performed if the available symbols are available.

In one embodiment, for PUCCH transmission in the short PUCCH format, if the symbol is unavailable (eg, the symbol is a reserved symbol), this transmission is skipped and the PUCCH is not transmitted. In this way, on the one hand, the delay can be reduced, for example, for PDSCH transmission, ACK/NACK feedback can be obtained in a faster and more timely manner. For another example, for beamforming or multi-transmission reception point transmission, there is no interval between consecutive PUCCH transmissions, which can save beam scanning time, and combine with data transmitted by multi-transmission reception points to reduce delay; another In one aspect, the scattered uplink symbols can be used to perform repeated transmission of the PUCCH at any time, which is more flexible and obtains higher resource utilization.

For example, referring to Fig. 2d, for PUCCH transmission in the short PUCCH format, the number of repeated PUCCH transmissions in each slot is 3; the repeated transmission of PUCCH is continuous PUCCH transmission, that is, when symbols are available, the The transmission is uninterrupted; the time domain starting position is the symbol numbered 5, as shown in Figure 2d, after the time domain starting position occupied by the first PUCCH transmission is determined (symbol 5), the remaining 2 transmissions The occupied symbols can be determined. The number of symbols occupied by the transmission of each PUCCH is the same. In FIG. 2d , the number of symbols occupied by each PUCCH transmission is 2.

In one embodiment, for PUCCH transmission in the short PUCCH format, if the symbol occupied by the PUCCH transmission is a reserved symbol, the PUCCH transmission is skipped this time. For example, in FIG. 2d, the symbol 7 in the slot 2 is a reserved symbol, so the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is performed after skipping the symbol 7.

In one embodiment, for the PUCCH transmission in the short PUCCH format, if the symbol occupied by the PUCCH transmission is a downlink symbol, the PUCCH transmission of this time is skipped. For example, in 2d, symbols 0 to 3 in slot1 are downlink symbols, and no PUCCH transmission is performed on these symbols.

For example, referring to Fig. 2e, for PUCCH transmission in the short PUCCH format, the number of repeated transmissions of PUCCH in each slot is 3; the repeated transmission of PUCCH is continuous PUCCH transmission, that is, when symbols are available, There is no interruption between transmissions; the time domain starting position is the symbol numbered 6, as shown in Figure 2e, after the time domain starting position occupied by the first PUCCH transmission is determined (symbol 6), the remaining 2 transmissions The occupied symbols can be determined. The number of symbols occupied by the transmission of each PUCCH is the same. In FIG. 2e, the number of symbols occupied by each PUCCH is 2.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the configuration parameter of the repeated transmission of the PUCCH is determined according to the PUCCH format supported by the terminal for the repeated transmission of the physical uplink control channel PUCCH. Here, the configuration parameters for the repeated transmission of PUCCH can be determined according to the supported PUCCH format for repeated transmission of PUCCH. Compared with only performing repeated transmission of PUCCH according to a single configuration parameter, the terminal can use configuration parameters suitable for the PUCCH format. Repeated transmission of the PUCCH is performed, in this way, the requirements of reliability, delay and/or coverage strength in different scenarios can be met.
