It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present application can be practiced in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein, and that "first", "second" distinguishes Usually it is a class, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object may be one or multiple. In addition, "and/or" in the description and claims indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following contents are first described.

1) About multiple antennas

Wireless access technologies such as Long Term Evolution (LTE)/Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) are based on Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology and positive It is built on the basis of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology. Among them, the MIMO technology can improve the peak rate and the system spectrum utilization by utilizing the spatial degrees of freedom that the multi-antenna system can obtain.

In the process of standardization development, the dimension of MIMO technology is constantly expanding. In LTE Rel-8, up to 4 layers of MIMO transmission can be supported. Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) technology is added in Rel-9, and MU-MIMO transmission of TM (Transmission Mode)-8 can support up to 4 downlink data layers. In Rel-10, the transmission capability of Single-User MIMO (SU-MIMO) is extended to a maximum of 8 data layers.

The industry is further advancing the MIMO technology towards three-dimensional and large-scale. The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has completed research projects on 3D channel modeling, and is carrying out research and standardization work on full-dimensional eFD-MIMO and New Radio (NR) MIMO. It is foreseeable that in the future 5th Generation (5th ^Generation , 5G) mobile communication system, a MIMO technology with larger scale and more antenna ports will be introduced.

Massive MIMO technology uses large-scale antenna arrays, which can greatly improve the efficiency of system frequency band utilization and support a larger number of access users. Therefore, the massive MIMO technology has been regarded as one of the most potential physical layer technologies in the next generation mobile communication system.

In massive MIMO technology, if an all-digital array is used, maximum spatial resolution and optimal MU-MIMO performance can be achieved, but this structure requires a large number of digital-to-analog/analog-to-digital (AD/DA) conversion devices and a large number of complete The RF-baseband processing channel will be a huge burden in terms of equipment cost and baseband processing complexity.

In order to avoid the above-mentioned implementation cost and equipment complexity, digital-analog hybrid beamforming technology came into being, that is, on the basis of traditional digital domain beamforming, a first-level beamforming is added to the RF signal at the front end of the antenna system. shape. The analog shaping can achieve rough matching between the transmitted signal and the channel in a relatively simple way. The dimension of the equivalent channel formed after analog shaping is smaller than the actual number of antennas, so the required AD/DA conversion devices, the number of digital channels and the corresponding baseband processing complexity can be greatly reduced. The residual interference of the analog shaped part can be processed again in the digital domain to ensure the quality of MU-MIMO transmission. Compared with all-digital forming, digital-analog hybrid beamforming is a compromise between performance and complexity.

2) About the high frequency band

In the research on the next generation communication system after the 4th ^Generation (4G), the operating frequency band supported by the system has been increased to above 6 GHz, and the highest is about 100 GHz. The high frequency band has abundant idle frequency resources, which can provide greater throughput for data transmission. At present, 3GPP has completed the high-frequency channel modeling work. The high-frequency signal has a short wavelength. Compared with the low-frequency band, more antenna elements can be arranged on a panel of the same size, and the beamforming technology is used to form a stronger directivity. , a beam with narrower lobes. Therefore, the combination of large-scale antennas and high-frequency communication is also one of the future trends.

3) About beam measurement and beam reporting

The analog beamforming is transmitted in full bandwidth, and each polarization direction array element on the panel of each high-frequency antenna array can only transmit the analog beam in a time-division multiplexed manner. The shaping weight of the analog beam is realized by adjusting the parameters of the radio frequency front-end phase shifter and other equipment.

In a specific embodiment, the training of the analog beamforming vector is usually performed in a polling manner, that is, the array elements in each polarization direction of each antenna panel transmit training signals in turn at the appointed time in a time-division multiplexing manner ( That is, the candidate shaping vector), the terminal feeds back the beam report after measurement, so that the network-side device uses the training signal to implement analog beam transmission when transmitting services next time. The content of the beam report usually includes the optimal identification information of several beams and the measured received power of each transmit beam.

When performing beam measurement, the network-side device will configure reporting configuration information, that is, beam reporting configuration information, which is associated with a reference signal resource setting (RS resource setting), and the reference signal resource setting includes at least one reference signal resource set (RS resource setting). resource set), each reference signal resource set includes at least one reference signal resource (RS resource), such as a synchronization signal block (Synchronization Signal and PBCH block, SSB) resource or a channel state information reference signal (Channel State Information Reference Signal, CSI-RS) resources. The terminal measures the layer 1 reference signal received power (Layer One Reference Signal Receiving Power, L1-RSRP)/layer 1 signal to interference plus noise ratio (Layer One Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio, L1-SINR) of each reference signal resource, L1-SINR, and report the optimal at least one measurement result to the network side device. The reported content includes Synchronization Signals Block Resource Indicator (SSBRI) SSBRI or CSI-RS Identification (CRI), and L1-RSRP/L1-SINR.

In the configuration information of the beam report, it will indicate whether the beam report is a packet-based beam report. If it is a non-group based beam report (non-group based beam report), the terminal will report at least one optimal beam and its quality, so that the network side device can determine the beam used to send the channel or signal to the terminal. If it is a group based beam report (group based beam report), the terminal will report a pair of beams and their quality. When the network side device uses this pair of beams to send information to the terminal, the terminal can receive it at the same time.

4) About beam squint

When the bandwidth of a frequency band is large, beam squint occurs due to the difference in signal propagation characteristics at different frequency locations. For example, there is a deviation in the beam direction between the band edge frequency point and the center frequency point of a large bandwidth. When the network performs beam training according to the center frequency point and selects the optimal beam, if the optimal beam is used to transmit the channel in the full bandwidth, Then the beam direction at the edge frequency point will deviate, and the quality of the beam link will also deteriorate.

Independent beam management (IBM)/common beam management (CBM) is introduced in 3GPP to describe two different working modes under FR2 inter-band carrier aggregation (Carrier Aggregation, CA). Among them, IBM refers to the end user equipment (User Equipment, UE) through independent beam management, the primary carrier (PCC) and the secondary carrier (SCC) can independently select the optimal beam. In this case, different component carriers (Component carriers, CCs) can have relatively optimal transceiver performance, but the disadvantage is that the signaling overhead is large and the architecture design of the UE is more complicated. The CBM means that the UE only has the PCC to perform the beam management process, and the SCC directly applies the PCC configuration. The advantage of this method lies in saving signaling overhead, simplifying the UE structure and reducing costs. However, since FR2 adopts hybrid beamforming, this configuration makes the beams of PCC and SCC use the same phase shifter configuration, resulting in a certain deflection of the beam direction of SCC relative to PCC, resulting in the so-called "beam squint". decline.

It is worth noting that the technologies described in the embodiments of this application are not limited to Long Term Evolution (LTE)/LTE-Advanced (LTE-Advanced, LTE-A) systems, and can also be used in other wireless communication systems, such as code Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access, OFDMA), Single-carrier Frequency-Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) and other systems. The terms "system" and "network" in the embodiments of the present application are often used interchangeably, and the described technology can be used not only for the above-mentioned systems and radio technologies, but also for other systems and radio technologies. The following description describes a New Radio (NR) system for example purposes, and uses NR terminology in most of the description below, but the techniques can also be applied to applications other than NR system applications, such as 6th generation (6th ^generation ) Generation, 6G) communication system.

In order to solve the problem of how to avoid the degradation of beam link performance caused by beam squint, in the embodiment of the present application, the beam pairing technology is mainly introduced in the face of large bandwidth or cross-frequency band, and through a reasonable beam measurement and reporting mechanism, the distance between them is relatively long. Different transmit beams are used for different frequency positions, and can also be received at the same time at the terminal to improve throughput.

The beam measurement reporting method provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a beam measurement reporting method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method is executed by a terminal. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes the following steps:

Step 21: Send the first beam report to the network side device.

In this embodiment, the first beam report may include beam identification information of multiple first objects. The beam identification information of at least two first objects corresponds to the same receive beam information, and the receive beam information is, for example, spatial domain receive filter information of the terminal, or spatial domain filter information of the terminal, and the like. The first object may include any one of the following: cell, sub-band, band, CC, and the like. The beam identification information may be a reference signal resource indicator (resource indicator) such as SSBRI and CRI.

For example, the first beam report includes beam identification information of multiple cells, or includes beam identification information of multiple subbands, or includes beam identification information of multiple frequency bands, or includes beam identification information of multiple CCs.

It should be pointed out that what is reported in the embodiment of the present application is a beam report (beam report), and the SSBRI/CRI including multiple sub-bands is taken as an example below to illustrate the reason why beam squint can be solved: The beamforming weights are determined by hardware such as phasers, so currently only one beam can be formed on a band; but when the band is too large, for different sub-bands, the same transmit beam (Tx beam) and The receiving beam (Rx beam) will lead to the optimal performance of the beam link (beam link) in one sub-band, and the beam squint phenomenon will appear when applied to another sub-band, that is, the beam on another sub-band. The link performance deteriorates; accordingly, this application proposes to report SSBRI/CRI of multiple sub-bands, in which the UE still uses a set of phase shifters and other devices to form a receiving beam, that is, the UE's Rx beam on this band The same, but the Tx beam of the network is different in different sub-bands, such as Tx beam1 and Tx beam2 respectively, both of which are for the same Rx beam of the UE to form the respective optimal on the two sub-bands. Therefore, the SSBRI/CRI of different sub-bands corresponding to the same Rx beam is reported to avoid beam squint.

In the beam measurement reporting method in this embodiment of the present application, the terminal sends a first beam report to a network side device, where the first beam report includes beam identification information of a plurality of first objects, so that the network side device can operate on frequencies that are far apart. Different transmit beams are used at the point positions, such as different transmit beams on different cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs, and the terminal can also receive at the same time, so as to avoid beams caused by beam squint in large bandwidth or across frequency bands Link performance degrades and throughput increases.

In the embodiments of the present application, in order to solve the problem caused by beam squint, three beam measurement and reporting mechanisms are proposed, which are respectively described as follows.

Mechanism one

In the first mechanism, before sending the first beam report to the network-side device, the terminal may receive report configuration information from the network-side device. The report configuration information is, for example, CSI-ReportConfig. The report configuration information is one report configuration information, that is, the report configuration information includes the configuration information of one beam report. The report configuration information may have at least one of the following characteristics:

(1) Including RS resource settings (RS resource settings), these RS resource settings are respectively on a plurality of first objects. That is, the report configuration information includes the RS resource setting (or resource config) on multiple cells/subbands/bands/CCs.

Optionally, the above-mentioned RS resource setting may include the number or identification ID of the first object, that is, the number of the cell/subband/frequency band/CC, or the ID of the cell/subband/frequency band/CC.

Alternatively, the above-mentioned RS resource setting may be configured in the configuration information of the first object, that is, configured in the cell configuration information, the subband configuration information, the frequency band configuration information, or the CC configuration information.

(2) Including RS resource sets (RS resource sets), these RS resource sets are respectively on a plurality of first objects. That is, the report configuration information includes RS resource sets on multiple cells/subbands/bands/CCs.

Optionally, the above-mentioned RS resource set may include the number or ID of the first object, that is, the number of the cell/subband/frequency band/CC, or the ID of the cell/subband/frequency band/CC.

Alternatively, the above-mentioned RS resource set may be configured in the configuration information of the first object, that is, configured in the cell configuration information, in the subband configuration information, in the frequency band configuration information, or in the CC configuration information.

(3) Including RS resource groups, these RS resource groups are respectively on a plurality of first objects. That is, the report configuration information includes RS resource groups on multiple cells/subbands/bands/CCs. At least 2 of these RS resource groups belong to one RS resource set. These RS resource groups include at least one RS resource in the RS resource set.

Optionally, the above-mentioned RS resource group may include the number or ID of the first object, that is, the number of the cell/subband/frequency band/CC, or the ID of the cell/subband/frequency band/CC.

Alternatively, the above-mentioned RS resource group may be configured in the configuration information of the first object, that is, configured in the cell configuration information, in the subband configuration information, in the frequency band configuration information, or in the CC configuration information.

It is understandable that, after sending the report configuration information to the terminal, the network side device may send a reference signal (Reference Signal, RS) according to the report configuration information, so that the terminal can perform beam measurement. However, after performing beam measurement, the terminal may send a beam report to the network side device.

Optionally, under the above report configuration information, the type of the first beam report reported by the terminal may be a group based beam report (group based beam report).

The first beam report may include at least one of the following:

1) N groups of beam identification information.

The beam identification information is, for example, SSBRI, CRI, or the like. N is a positive integer. Each set of beam identification information includes M pieces of beam identification information, where M is the number of multiple first objects. For example, if the report configuration information includes the RS resource settings of 2 cells, then each group of beam identification information includes 2 beam identification information; or, if the report configuration information includes the RS resource settings of 3 cells, then each group of beam identification information includes 3 beam identification information.

Optionally, each group of beam identification information in the N groups of beam identification information corresponds to one receiving beam information, that is, each group of beam identification information is paired, and each receiving beam information corresponds to at least one group of beam identification information. The transmit beam corresponding to each group of beam identification information can be simultaneously received by the corresponding receive beam information.

Optionally, in the N groups of beam identification information, the M beam identification information in each group of beam identification information respectively indicate RS resources in the first information on different first objects, and the first information may include any of the following: One item: RS resource setting, RS resource collection, RS resource group. That is, the M pieces of beam identification information in each group of beam identification information respectively indicate the RS resource in the RS resource setting/RS resource set/RS resource group on different cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs.

Optionally, the above N groups of beam identification information meet at least one of the following characteristics:

①The beam identification information included in each group of beam identification information is arranged in a preset order;

②N groups of beam identification information are arranged in a preset order, so as to determine which beam identification information is a group according to the preset order, and can be paired. Pairing means corresponding to the same Rx beam;

③ The beam identification information included in the N groups of beam identification information is arranged in a preset order.

For example, the first beam report reported by UE0 includes three groups of beam identification information, wherein the first group of beam identification information includes CRI1 of cell1 and CRI2 of cell2, the second group of beam identification information includes CRI3 of cell1 and CRI4 of cell2, and the first group of beam identification information includes CRI3 of cell1 and CRI4 of cell2. The three sets of beam identification information include CRI5 of cell1 and CRI6 of cell2; then:

If arranged according to the above feature ①, the preset order is: according to the cell number, then: in the above-mentioned three groups of beam identification information, the reporting order of the first group of beam identification information is: CRI1, CRI2, and the reporting order of the second group of beam identification information The order is: CRI3, CRI4, and the reporting order of the third group of beam identification information is: CRI5, CRI6; or, the reporting order of the first group of beam identification information is: CRI2, CRI1, and the reporting order of the second group of beam identification information is: CRI4, CRI3, the reporting order of the third group of beam identification information is: CRI6, CRI5;

If arranged according to the above feature ②, the preset order is: according to the order of the groups, then: among the above three groups of beam identification information, the first group of beam identification information is firstly arranged, then the second group of beam identification information is arranged, and finally the third group of beam identification information is arranged. Group beam identification information, corresponding to the reported beam identification information: CRI1, CRI2, CRI3, CRI4, CRI5, CRI6;

If arranged according to the above feature (3), the preset order is: according to the cell number and the order of paired CRIs in all CRIs of each cell is the same, then: in the above three sets of beam identification information, the CRI1, CRI3, and CRI5 of cell1 are first arranged , and then arrange CRI2, CRI4, and CRI6 of cell2, and the paired CRI1 and CRI2 are ranked first among all the CRIs of cell1 and cell2, respectively, and the paired CRI3 and CRI4 are ranked second among all the CRIs of cell1 and cell2, respectively The paired CRI5 and CRI6 are ranked third in all CRIs of cell1 and cell2, respectively, that is, the corresponding reported beam identification information is: CRI1, CRI3, CRI5, CRI2, CRI4, and CRI6.

2) The beam link quality corresponding to each beam identification information.

For example, the beam link quality is the L1-RSRP, L1-SINR, and/or throughput of the corresponding beam link, so that the network side device determines the optimal beam link. The reporting order of the beam link quality may be the same as the order of the corresponding beam identification information.

3) The sum of beam link qualities corresponding to each group of beam identification information, or a weighted average of beam link qualities corresponding to each group of beam identification information.

For example, what is reported is the weighted average/total L1-RSRP, L1-SINR, and/or throughput of the beam links corresponding to each group of beam identification information, so that the network side device determines the optimal beam link. The reporting order of the sum of beam link qualities or the weighted average may be the same as the order of the corresponding beam identification information group.

4) The first identification ID corresponding to each group of beam identification information. The first identifier may be used to identify the receiving beam information corresponding to each group of beam identifier information.

Optionally, the content in the first beam report may satisfy at least one of the following characteristics:

The information sent by the first transmit beam is simultaneously received by the terminal; wherein the first transmit beam is for a plurality of the first objects, and the first transmit beam is identified by the beam identification information belonging to the same group signified;

Each group of beam identification information corresponds to one receiving beam information of the terminal;

Each receiving beam information of the terminal corresponds to at least one set of beam identification information;

Each beam identification information in each group of beam identification information corresponds to a different first object;

According to the first identification corresponding to each group of beam identification information, it is determined that the information on the transmit beams represented by the beam identification information belonging to the same group is simultaneously received;

According to the preset arrangement order of the beam identification information of each group, it is determined that the information on the transmit beams represented by the beam identification information belonging to the same group is received simultaneously.

In this way, by means of the first beam report that satisfies the above-mentioned characteristics, the network-side device can be made to use different transmit beams at far apart frequency positions, for example, different transmit beams are used on different cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs, and It is also possible to maintain simultaneous reception of the terminal.

Optionally, after sending the first beam report to the network side device, the terminal may also receive beam indication information from the network side device, and transmit channels or reference signals on the corresponding beam link according to the beam indication information. Wherein, the source RSs of multiple TCI states in the beam indication information may be: all or part of the RS resources corresponding to a group of beam identification information; or, the multiple source RSs of a TCI state in the beam indication information may be: All or part of the RS resource corresponding to a set of beam identification information. In this way, the terminal can use one receive beam to form a beam link with the transmit beams on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs at the same time with the network side device, thereby ensuring maximum throughput of information transmission.

That is to say, after receiving the first beam report, the network-side device may schedule channel transmission or reference signal transmission according to the first beam report, such as scheduling the target channel/reference signal on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs When transmitting at the same time, perform beam indication, and use all or part of the RS resource corresponding to a set of beam identification information as the source RS of multiple TCI states in the beam indication of the target channel/reference signal, or use a set of beam identification information corresponding to all the source RSs Or part of the RS resource as multiple source RSs in one TCI state in the beam indication of the target channel/reference signal.

In an optional implementation manner, the network side device may update beam information (such as TCI state) on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs. When the beam indication information received by the terminal includes multiple TCI states, the multiple TCI states may have the same TCI state identifier, and/or the multiple TCI states may belong to different TCI state pools. For example, the multiple TCI states have the same TCI state identifier, but belong to different TCI state pools. When the network updates the TCI state ID, the TCI states with the same TCI state ID on multiple cells/subbands/bands/CCs are updated together. For another example, when the network updates the TCI state on one cell/subband/band/CC, the TCI state ID of the updated TCI state is also used for other cells/subbands/bands/CCs.

In an optional embodiment, the first beam report reported by UE1 includes the following content:

{CRI1 on cell1,CRI2 on cell2}for Rx beam1,

{CRI3 on cell1,CRI4 on cell2}for Rx beam1,

{CRI5 on cell1,CRI6 on cell2}for Rx beam2,

...

It can be seen from the above content that the first beam report reported by UE1 contains multiple groups of beam identification information (CRI), and the CRI in each group corresponds to 2 cells and can be paired (pairing means using one Rx beam). For example, Rx beam1 corresponds to CRI1 of cell1 and CRI2 of cell2, Rx beam1 corresponds to CRI3 of cell1 and CRI4 of cell2, and Rx beam2 corresponds to CRI5 of cell1 and CRI6 of cell2 beam information, etc. In addition, CRI1/3/5 corresponds to the CSI-RS resource in the resource setting of cell1, and CRI2/4/6 corresponds to the CSI-RS resource in the resource setting of cell2.

Optionally, in the first beam report reported by UE1, for each group of CRIs, an ID indication may be added explicitly, or an ID indication may be implicitly indicated according to a preset arrangement order: every adjacent 2 CRIs are paired, that is, the previous Two CRIs are a group, corresponding to one Rx beam, the next two CRIs are a group, and also correspond to a Rx beam, and so on; or, corresponding to cell1 and cell2, the first half of the CRI and the second half of the CRI are in order Pair them one by one.

Mechanism II

In the second mechanism, before sending the first beam report to the network-side device, the terminal may receive multiple report configuration information from the network-side device, that is, the configuration information received by the terminal from the network-side device includes multiple report configuration information. The report configuration information is, for example, CSI-ReportConfig.

Optionally, each report configuration information may have at least one of the following characteristics:

(1) Each reporting configuration information corresponds to a first object, that is, each reporting configuration information corresponds to one cell/subband/band/CC.

Under this (1), each report configuration information may be configured in the configuration information of the first object, that is, in the cell configuration information, in the subband configuration information, in the frequency band configuration information, or in the CC configuration information. Alternatively, each report configuration information may include the number or ID of the first object, that is, the number or ID of the cell/subband/band/CC.

(2) Each report configuration information includes: RS resource settings or RS resource sets corresponding to the same first object as the report configuration information. For example, each report configuration information includes: RS resource setting or RS resource set corresponding to the same cell/subband/frequency band/CC as the report configuration information.

It is understandable that, after sending multiple report configuration information to the terminal, the network side device may send RS according to the multiple report configuration information, so that the terminal can perform beam measurement. However, after performing beam measurement, the terminal may send a beam report to the network side device.

Optionally, under the above multiple report configuration information, the type of the first beam report reported by the terminal may be a non-group based beam report (non-group based beam report).

The first beam report includes multiple beam reports, and each beam report may include at least one of the following:

1) P beam identification information.

The beam identification information is, for example, SSBRI, CRI, or the like. P is a positive integer. Each beam identification information corresponds to one receiving beam information, and each receiving beam information corresponds to at least one beam identification information.

Optionally, in the P beam identification information, each beam identification information is arranged in a preset order, so as to determine the beam identification information corresponding to the same Rx beam in different beam reports according to the preset order. For example, if the terminal reports beam report 1 and beam report 2, CRI1 of cell1 and CRI2 of cell2 correspond to the same Rx beam1, CRI3 of cell1 and CRI4 of cell2 correspond to the same Rx beam2, and the preset order is: paired CRI in each beam The order in the report is the same, then: in beam report 1, the CRI1 of cell1 is arranged first, then the CRI3 of cell1; in beam report 2, the CRI2 of cell2 is arranged first, and then the CRI4 of cell2 is arranged.

2) The beam link quality corresponding to each beam identification information.

For example, the beam link quality is L1-RSRP, L1-SINR, and/or throughput of the corresponding beam link. The reporting order of the beam link quality may be the same as the order of the corresponding beam identification information.

3) The second identification corresponding to each beam identification information. The second identifier may be used to identify the receiving beam information corresponding to each beam identifier information.

Optionally, for the content of different beam reports in the multiple beam reports, at least one of the following characteristics may be satisfied:

The information sent by the second transmit beam is simultaneously received by the terminal; wherein, the second transmit beam is for a plurality of the first objects, and the second transmit beam is identified by the beam identification information corresponding to the same receive beam information in each beam report signified;

Each beam identification information corresponds to one receiving beam information of the terminal;

Each receiving beam information of the terminal corresponds to at least one beam identification information;

According to the second identification corresponding to the beam identification information, it is determined that the information on the transmit beams characterized by the beam identification information in the different beam reports is simultaneously received;

According to the preset arrangement sequence of the beam identification information, it is determined that the information on the transmit beams represented by the beam identification information in different beam reports is received simultaneously.

In this way, with the help of multiple beam reports that meet the above characteristics, the network-side device can be made to use different transmit beams at far apart frequency positions, such as different transmit beams on different cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs, and It is also possible to maintain simultaneous reception of the terminal.

Optionally, after sending the first beam report to the network side device, the terminal may also receive beam indication information from the network side device, and transmit channels or reference signals on the corresponding beam link according to the beam indication information. Wherein, the source RS of multiple TCI states in the beam indication information may be: all or part of the RS resources corresponding to the beam identification information corresponding to the same received beam information in different beam reports; or, a TCI in the beam indication information The multiple source RSs of the state may be: all or part of the RS resources corresponding to the beam identification information corresponding to the same received beam information in different beam reports. In this way, the terminal can use one receive beam to form a beam link with the transmit beams on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs at the same time with the network side device, thereby ensuring maximum throughput of information transmission.

That is to say, after receiving the first beam report, the network side device can transmit on the scheduling channel or the reference signal according to the first beam report, such as scheduling the target channel/reference signal on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs When transmitting at the same time, perform beam indication, and use all or part of the RS resource corresponding to the beam identification information corresponding to the same received beam information in different beam reports as the source RS of multiple TCI states in the beam indication; or, use different beam reports All or part of the RS resources corresponding to the beam identification information corresponding to the same received beam information in the beam indication are used as multiple source RSs of a TCI state in the beam indication.

In an optional embodiment, the above-mentioned mechanism 1 and mechanism 2 can be combined, for example, beam measurement and reporting are first performed based on mechanism 1, and according to the beam report content in mechanism 1, the beam corresponding to the reported beam identification information is again based on Mechanism 2 performs beam measurement and reporting; vice versa.

Mechanism three

In the third mechanism, before sending the first beam report to the network side device, the terminal may receive report configuration information from the network side device. The report configuration information is, for example, CSI-ReportConfig. The report configuration information is one report configuration information, that is, the report configuration information includes the configuration information of one beam report. The report configuration information may have at least one of the following characteristics:

Each RS resource setting associated with the beam report corresponds to multiple first objects; that is, each RS resource setting associated with the beam report corresponds to multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs;

Each RS resource set associated with the beam report corresponds to multiple first objects; that is, each RS resource set associated with the beam report corresponds to multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs;

The RS resource in each RS resource setting associated with the beam report has multiple TCI states;

The RS resource in each RS resource set associated with the beam report has multiple TCI states.

It is understandable that, after sending the report configuration information to the terminal, the network side device may send the RS according to the report configuration information, so that the terminal can perform beam measurement. However, after performing beam measurement, the terminal may send a beam report to the network side device. In this embodiment, the network side device can use different TCI states when sending RSs on each cell/subband/frequency band/CC. That is, the RS resource has multiple TCI states, where each TCI state corresponds to one cell/subband/band/CC.

Optionally, under the above report configuration information, the first beam report reported by the terminal may include at least one of the following:

1) K beam identification information. Among them, K is a positive integer.

2) The beam link quality measured by the RS resource corresponding to each beam identification information when each TCI state in the multiple TCI states is used. The reporting order of the beam link quality can be the same as the order of the corresponding TCI state.

3) The sum of beam link qualities measured when the RS resource corresponding to each beam identification information uses multiple TCI states.

4) The weighted average of the beam link quality measured when the RS resource corresponding to each beam identification information uses multiple TCI states.

For example, the network-side device uses the first TCI state of the CSI-RS resource or the first source RS of the TCI state to determine the transmit beam of the CSI-RS resource on subband 1, and uses the second TCI-RS resource of the CSI-RS resource. A TCI state or the second source RS of the TCI state determines the transmit beam of the CSI-RS resource on subband 2. When the network side device transmits CSI-RS in a certain subband, it only transmits the part of the CSI-RS resource in this subband, and the part in another subband may not be sent or set to zero. The UE uses the same receive beam to simultaneously receive the CSI-RS on the two transmit beams, and obtains the beam link quality of the CSI-RS resource on the two subbands. When multiple CSI-RS resources are measured, the beam link quality on each subband of each CSI-RS resource, or the sum of beam link qualities on each subband, or on each subband to determine the beam identification information to be reported.

Optionally, after sending the first beam report to the network side device, the terminal may also receive beam indication information from the network side device, and transmit channels or reference signals on the corresponding beam link according to the beam indication information. Wherein, the source RS of the TCI state in the beam indication information is: an RS resource corresponding to the beam identification information. In this way, the terminal can use one receive beam to form a beam link with the transmit beams on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs at the same time with the network side device, thereby ensuring maximum throughput of information transmission.

That is to say, after receiving the first beam report, the network side device can transmit on the scheduling channel or the reference signal according to the first beam report, such as scheduling the target channel/reference signal on multiple cells/subbands/frequency bands/CCs When transmitting at the same time, the beam indication is performed, and the RS resource corresponding to the beam identification information is used as the source RS of the TCI state in the beam indication.

In this embodiment of the present application, for the beam link quality in the beam report, a differential reporting method may be used, such as using a differential method for the beam link quality on the same cell/subband/frequency band/CC, or for multiple cells. The beam link quality on the /subband/band/CC adopts a differential method, etc. The differential mode refers to reporting the absolute value of the quality of one beam link, and then reporting the relative value of the quality of other beam links relative to the quality of the one beam link.

Optionally, when the first beam report reported by the terminal includes multiple beam link qualities, the multiple beam link qualities may be reported in a differential manner. For example, the first beam report includes: an absolute value of the first beam link quality among the multiple beam link qualities, and other beam link qualities other than the first beam link quality among the multiple beam link qualities The relative value of the beam link quality with respect to the first beam link quality.

Optionally, the beam link quality in the first beam report is reported in a differential manner, and may include at least one of the following:

When the first beam report includes multiple sets of beam identification information, the link qualities of multiple beams corresponding to each set of beam identification information are reported in a differential manner;

For the RS resource corresponding to the same beam identification information in the first beam report, the beam link quality measured when using multiple TCI states is reported using a differential method;

The link qualities of multiple beams corresponding to the same first object in the first beam report are reported in a differential manner;

Link qualities of multiple beams corresponding to multiple first objects in the first beam report are reported in a differential manner.
