This disclosure claims the patent priority of the PCT application whose application number is PCT/CN2021/135145 and whose international filing date is December 02, 2021.

technical field

The present disclosure relates to the communication field, and in particular, to methods and devices for detecting and sending downlink control information, and storage media.

Background technique

At present, different service types have different characteristics, such as arrival period, delay, transmission rate and so on. The network side needs to schedule the data transmission of the corresponding service type through multiple DCI (Downlink Control Information, downlink control information). When the network side needs to transmit multiple types of services, it may occur that multiple DCIs need to be transmitted in the same time unit.

Since the terminal needs to detect and receive DCI in multiple search spaces, or the terminal needs to detect and receive multiple DCIs scrambled by different G-RNTI (Group-Radio Network Tempory Identity, group wireless network temporary identifier) in one search space, finally The number of received DCIs that need to be detected may exceed the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal.

When the number of DCIs sent by the network side in the same time unit exceeds the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal, the behavior of the terminal is unpredictable, which may lead to inconsistent understanding of data transmission and reception on the network side and the terminal side. Eventually lead to system performance degradation.

Detailed ways

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects of the invention as recited in the appended claims.

The terminology used in the present disclosure is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. As used in this disclosure and the appended claims, the singular forms "a", "the", and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term "and/or" as used herein refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of at least one of the associated listed items.

It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used in the present disclosure to describe various information, the information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, first information may also be called second information, and similarly, second information may also be called first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at" or "when" or "in response to a determination."

In Rel-17 (Release-17, version 17), MBS (Multicast Broadcast service, multicast broadcast service) supports multiple business types, such as public safety and mission critical (public safety warning) information, V2X (vehicle to everything, Internet of Vehicles) related information, IPTV (Internet Protocol TV, interactive network TV), OTA (Over The Air, air interface), group communication, etc. The transmission period and transmission rate of different business types are different. For example, for IPTV, its data arrival is often periodic, and the data reliability requirements are general, while for public safety early warning information, its data arrival is often sudden, and the reliability requirements for data transmission are extremely high. Correspondingly, the network side needs to configure different search spaces for downlink control channels that schedule different services. These search spaces have different PDCCH candidate (candidate) configurations, different listening periods, and may be bound to different G-RNTIs.

For a terminal, the amount of DCI that can be decoded in each time unit depends on the capability of the terminal. For example, for a terminal that does not support the FG 3-5b capability, its corresponding time unit is limited to one slot (time slot), and only one slot on the FDD (Frequency Division Duplexing, Frequency Division Duplexing) frequency band can only support detection 1 DL (DownLink, downlink) DCI and 1 UL (UpLink, uplink) DCI, in the TDD (Test Driven Development, time division duplex) frequency band, only one slot can support detection of 1 DL DCI and 2 UL DCI, or support detection of 2 DL DCIs and 1 UL DCI.

For terminals that support FG 3-5b capabilities, the corresponding time unit is limited to a span (range). A span is a time unit smaller than a slot, and generally can be a specified number of time symbols.

Referring to Figure 1, the network side needs to send DCIs corresponding to MBS service #1, MBS service #2, MBS service #3 and terminal-specific services of different periods to the terminal, and the terminal in slot #0 will receive 4 DCIs, 1 DCI is received in

slot#

1, 2 DCIs are received in

slot#

2, 1 DCI is received in

slot#

3, 3 DCIs are received in

slot#

4, 1 DCI is received in

slot#

5, 2 DCIs are received in

slot#

6, 1 DCI is received in slot#7, and so on.

Assuming that the maximum number of DCIs that the terminal supports to detect and receive is 2, then in time units such as slot#0, slot#4, and slot#8, the behavior of the terminal is unpredictable, which may cause the network side and the terminal side to transmit and receive data. Inconsistent understanding. Eventually lead to system performance degradation.

In order to solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides methods for detecting and sending downlink control information. The method for detecting downlink control information provided by the present disclosure will be introduced first from the terminal side.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for detecting downlink control information, as shown in FIG. 2 . FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for detecting downlink control information according to an embodiment, which can be used for a terminal. The method may include the following steps :

In step 201, within a time unit, based on the priority order of multiple downlink control information DCIs, corresponding DCIs are detected and received. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the multiple DCIs include at least a group common DCI used to simultaneously schedule terminal services of multiple terminals, and the group common DCI may be a common DCI used to simultaneously schedule MBS services of multiple terminals. For a terminal that does not support the FG 3-5b capability, the size of a time unit can be a slot; for a terminal that supports the FG 3-5b capability, the size of a time unit can be a span.

In a possible implementation manner, the priority sequence of multiple DCIs may be pre-agreed by the protocol. In another possible implementation manner, the priority sequence of multiple DCIs may be configured by the base station through high-layer signaling, where the high-layer signaling may be RRC (Radio Resource Control, radio resource control) signaling.

In step 202, in response to determining that the number of DCIs detected and received within the time unit reaches the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal for detection within one time unit, stop DCI detection within the time unit .

In the above embodiment, the terminal can detect and receive DCI based on the priority order of multiple DCIs within a time unit, once the number of DCIs detected and received within the time unit reaches the terminal within a time unit If the maximum number of DCIs supported for detection is specified, the terminal stops DCI detection in this time unit. In the present disclosure, the terminal can detect and receive DCIs based on the priority order of multiple DCIs, avoiding unpredictable behavior of the terminal and having high usability.

In some optional embodiments, the terminal may use the group common DCI as unicast (unicast) DCI, and determine the number of received DCI together with the unicast DCI. Correspondingly, the maximum number of DCIs can be multiplexed with the maximum number of unicast DCIs defined in related protocols. Specifically, the terminal can detect and receive DCI in any of the following ways, but not limited to:

In the first way, the terminal preferentially detects and receives the corresponding DCI in the group common search space, and the number of DCIs detected and received in the group common search space is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, that is, when the terminal capability limit is not exceeded, the The terminal continues to detect and receive the corresponding DCI in the specific search space.

Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a flow chart of a method for detecting downlink control information according to an embodiment, which can be used in a terminal. The method may include the following steps:

In step 301, within one time unit, the corresponding DCI is detected and received on the group common search space based on the first priority order.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the group of common search spaces is at least a common search space for transmitting the group of common DCI. Both the group common DCI and the unicast DCI can be transmitted on the group common CSS (Common Search Space, group common search space). The first priority order may be pre-agreed in the protocol, or may be configured by the base station side through high-level signaling, where the high-level signaling may be RRC signaling.

In step 302, in response to determining that the number of DCIs detected and received on the set of common search spaces is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, a corresponding DCI is detected and received on the terminal-specific search space USS based on a second priority order. DCI.

Wherein, the USS is a search space for transmitting unicast DCI corresponding to the terminal.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, only unicast DCI can be transmitted on USS (UE Search Space, terminal-specific search space). If the number of DCIs detected and received by the terminal on the group common search space does not reach the maximum number of unicast DCIs, the terminal may continue to detect and receive corresponding DCIs on the USS based on the second priority order. The second priority order may be pre-agreed in the protocol, or may be configured by the base station side through high-level signaling, where the high-level signaling may be RRC signaling.

Step 302 is optional, and needs to be executed when the number of DCIs detected and received on the group common search space does not reach the maximum number of unicast DCIs.

In step 303, in response to determining that the number of DCIs detected and received within the time unit reaches the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal for detection within one time unit, stop DCI detection within the time unit .

In the above embodiment, the terminal may preferentially detect and receive the corresponding DCI in the group common search space based on the first priority order, and when the number of DCIs detected and received in the group common search space is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, based on The second priority order continues to detect and receive the corresponding DCI on the USS until it is determined that the number of DCIs detected and received in the time unit reaches the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit. , stop DCI detection within the time unit. The purpose of detecting and receiving DCIs by the terminal based on the priority order of multiple DCIs is realized, and unpredictable behavior of the terminal is avoided, and the usability is high.

Optionally, the above-mentioned first priority order may be used to indicate at least one of the following: the priority order of the group public search space identifier from high to low or from low to high; the value of the group wireless network temporary identifier from high to low or The order of priority from low to high; the order of priority of terminal services; the order of priority of control resource set identifiers from high to low or from low to high. The second priority order may be used to indicate at least one of the following: the priority order of the search space identification from high to low or from low to high; the priority order of the control resource set identification from high to low or from low to high .

In a possible implementation, the first priority order can be used to indicate the priority order of group common search space ID (group common search space ID) from low to high. The corresponding group common DCI is detected and received in the group common search space of the lower group common search space ID. If the number of DCIs detected and received by the terminal on the group common search space is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, the terminal continues to use the second priority The stages sequentially detect and receive the corresponding DCI on the USS. Until the number of detected and received DCIs in the time unit reaches the maximum number of unicast DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit, stop DCI detection in the time unit.

In another possible implementation manner, the first priority order may be used to indicate the order of the group wireless network temporary identifier, including but not limited to indicating the value of the group wireless network temporary identifier from high to low or from low to high order of priority. The terminal can detect and receive the corresponding group common DCI in the corresponding group common search space according to the order of the G-RNTI value from high to low or from low to high. The number of DCI detected and received by the terminal on the group common search space If it is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, the terminal continues to detect and receive corresponding DCIs on the USS based on the second priority order. Until the number of detected and received DCIs in the time unit reaches the maximum number of unicast DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit, stop DCI detection in the time unit.

In another possible implementation manner, the first priority order may be used to indicate the priority order of terminal services. The terminal can detect and receive the corresponding group common DCI in the corresponding group common search space according to the priority order of the terminal service (service). If the number of DCI detected and received by the terminal on the group common search space is less than the maximum unicast DCI number, the terminal continues to detect and receive the corresponding DCI on the USS based on the second priority order. Until the number of detected and received DCIs in the time unit reaches the maximum number of unicast DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit, stop DCI detection in the time unit.

In another possible implementation manner, the first priority order may be used to indicate the priority order of CORESET (Control Resource set, control resource set) ID (identification) from high to low or from low to high. The terminal can detect and receive the corresponding group common DCI in the corresponding group common search space according to the priority order of CORESET ID from high to low or from low to high. The number of DCI detected and received by the terminal on the group common search space If it is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, the terminal continues to detect and receive corresponding DCIs on the USS based on the second priority order. Until the number of detected and received DCIs in the time unit reaches the maximum number of unicast DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit, stop DCI detection in the time unit.

The second way is to first detect and receive the corresponding DCI on the USS, and when the number of DCIs detected and received on the USS is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, that is, when the terminal capability limit is not exceeded, continue to detect in the group common search space And receive the corresponding DCI.

Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a flow chart of a method for detecting downlink control information according to an embodiment, which can be used in a terminal. The method may include the following steps:

The second priority order may be pre-agreed in the protocol, or may be configured by the base station side through high-level signaling, where the high-level signaling may be RRC signaling.

In step 402, in response to determining that the number of DCIs detected and received on the USS is less than the maximum number of unicast DCIs, corresponding DCIs are detected and received on the group common search space based on a first priority order.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the group of common search spaces is at least a common search space for transmitting the group of common DCI. If the number of DCIs detected and received by the terminal on the USS does not reach the maximum number of unicast DCIs, the terminal can continue to detect and receive the corresponding DCIs based on the first priority order in the group common search space, and in the group common search space The received DCI may be unicast DCI or group common DCI. The first priority order may be pre-agreed in the protocol, or may be configured by the base station side through high-level signaling, where the high-level signaling may be RRC signaling.

Step 402 is optional, and needs to be executed when the number of DCIs detected and received on the USS does not reach the maximum number of unicast DCIs.

The purpose of detecting and receiving DCIs by the terminal based on the priority order of multiple DCIs is realized, and unpredictable behavior of the terminal is avoided, and the usability is high.

Optionally, the second priority order is used to indicate at least one of the following: the priority order of search space identification from high to low or from low to high; the priority order of control resource set identification from high to low or from low to high order of priority. The first priority order is used to indicate at least one of the following: the priority order of the group common search space identifier from high to low or from low to high; the group wireless network temporary identifier value from high to low or from low to high The priority order of the terminal service; the priority order of the control resource set identification from high to low or from low to high.

In a possible implementation manner, the second priority order is used to indicate a priority order of search space identifiers from high to low or from low to high. The terminal can detect and receive the corresponding DCI on the corresponding USS according to the second priority order of the search space identifier from high to low or from low to high. If the number of DCI detected and received by the terminal on the USS is less than the maximum unicast DCI number, the terminal continues to detect and receive the corresponding DCI in the group common search space based on the first priority order. Until the number of detected and received DCIs in the time unit reaches the maximum number of unicast DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit, stop DCI detection in the time unit.

The manner in which the terminal detects and receives the corresponding DCI in the group common search space based on the first priority order is similar to the manner in which the terminal detects and receives the corresponding DCI in the group common search space based on the first priority order in the above embodiment, I won't repeat them here.

In another possible implementation manner, the second priority order is used to indicate the priority order of the control resource set identification from high to low or from low to high. The terminal can detect and receive the corresponding DCI on the corresponding USS according to the second priority order of the control resource set identifier from high to low or from low to high. If the number of DCI detected and received by the terminal on the USS is less than the maximum single If the number of broadcast DCIs is broadcast, the terminal continues to detect and receive corresponding DCIs in the group common search space based on the first priority order. Until the number of detected and received DCIs in the time unit reaches the maximum number of unicast DCIs supported by the terminal in one time unit, stop DCI detection in the time unit.

In some optional embodiments, in the case of receiving and receiving DCI in the above-mentioned first method or the second method, the group common DCI detected and received by the terminal in the group common search space, that is, the group common DCI can be It is regarded as unicast downlink DCI. That is to say, when the terminal counts the received unicast downlink DCI, it can count the group common DCI received by the terminal on the group common search space together with the unicast downlink DCI received by the terminal to jointly determine the Number of unicast downlink DCIs.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the unicast downlink DCI may be DCI for scheduling a unicast PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel, Physical Downlink Shared Channel). The unicast uplink DCI may be DCI for scheduling a unicast PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel, Physical Uplink Shared Channel).

In the above embodiments, the terminal preferentially detects and receives the corresponding DCI on the group common search space, or the terminal preferentially detects and receives the corresponding DCI on the USS. In these two ways, the terminal detects and receives the corresponding DCI on the group common search space The group common DCI can be regarded as unicast downlink DCI, which avoids affecting the transmission of unicast uplink DCI on the terminal side, and has high availability.

In some optional embodiments, a new terminal capability may also be defined separately for the terminal, where the terminal capability is used to indicate the maximum number of groups of common DCIs that the terminal supports to detect within one time unit. That is, when the maximum number of DCIs is determined, the maximum number of unicast DCIs is no longer multiplexed, and a maximum number of group common DCIs is independently defined for the terminal.

Referring to FIG. 5, FIG. 5 is a flow chart of a method for detecting downlink control information according to an embodiment, which can be used in a terminal. The method may include the following steps:

In step 501, the maximum number of DCIs is determined based on terminal capabilities.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal capability is used to indicate the maximum number of groups of common DCIs supported by the terminal to be detected within one time unit. Further, terminal capabilities can be defined according to different serving cells. That is, the maximum number of common DCIs supported for detection in one time unit on one serving cell is defined for the terminal. Among them, for a terminal that does not support the FG 3-5b capability, the corresponding time unit size is a slot, and for a terminal that supports the FG 3-5b capability, the corresponding time unit size is a span.

In step 502, within one said time unit, the group common DCI is detected and received on the group common search space based on a third priority order.

Wherein, the set of common search spaces is at least a common search space for transmitting the set of common DCI. Optionally, the third priority order is used to indicate at least one of the following: the priority order of the group common search space identifier from high to low or from low to high; the value of the group wireless network temporary identifier from high to low or from low to low Priority order from high to high; priority order of terminal services; priority order of control resource set identification from high to low or from low to high. Wherein, the third priority order may be predetermined by a protocol, or may be configured by high-level signaling sent by the base station, where the high-level signaling may be RRC signaling.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the manner in which the terminal detects and receives the group common DCI in the group common search space based on the third priority order corresponds to the method in which the terminal detects and receives the group common DCI based on the first priority order in the above embodiment. The manner of the DCI is similar and will not be repeated here.

In step 503, in response to determining that the number of the group of common DCIs that have been detected and received within the time unit reaches the maximum number of the group of common DCIs indicated by the terminal capability, the DCI detection is stopped on the group common search space.

In the foregoing embodiment, a new terminal capability may be defined for the terminal, and the maximum number of common DCI groups is determined based on the terminal capability. The terminal detects and receives group common DCI in the group common search space based on the third priority order, until the number of detected and received group common DCI reaches the maximum number of group common DCI, the group common search space within the time unit Spatially stops DCI detection. It also realizes the purpose that the terminal detects and receives DCIs based on the priority order of multiple DCIs, avoids unpredictable behavior of the terminal, and has high usability.

In some optional embodiments, the terminal capability in this disclosure may be shared with the processing capability of unicast DCI. That is to say, the sum of the maximum group of common DCI numbers indicated by the terminal capability and the number of unicast DCIs detected and received by the terminal within one time unit will not exceed the sum of the number of unicast DCIs that the terminal has received within one time unit. The maximum number of unicast DCIs supported for detection will not exceed the current capability of the terminal to process unicast DCIs.

For example, if the terminal supports FG 3-1 and works in the FDD frequency band, the number of unicast DCIs that the terminal can handle in one time unit, such as one slot, is 1 unicast downlink DCI and 1 unicast uplink DCI, The maximum number of unicast DCIs is 2. Assuming that the terminal reports the terminal capability to the base station, the terminal capability indicates that the maximum number of group common DCIs supported by the terminal in one slot is N, and the number of unicast DCIs that the terminal can process in one slot is 2-N.

In the above embodiment, the sum of the maximum number of common DCIs indicated by the terminal capabilities and the number of unicast DCIs detected and received by the terminal within one time unit is less than or equal to the maximum number of unicast DCIs, combining The ability of the terminal to process unicast DCI enables the terminal to detect and receive DCI based on the priority order of multiple DCIs, and avoid unpredictable behavior of the terminal.

Wherein, the common search space of the group is a common search space used for at least transmitting the common DCI of the group, and the sum of the third number and the fourth number is equal to the maximum number of unicast DCIs.

In some optional embodiments, refer to FIG. 10 , which is a flow chart of a method for sending and detecting downlink control information according to an embodiment. The method may include the following steps:

In step 1001, the base station sends multiple pieces of downlink control information DCI to the terminal within one time unit.

In step 1002, the terminal detects and receives corresponding DCIs based on the priority order of the plurality of DCIs.

In step 1003, in response to determining that the number of DCIs detected and received within the time unit reaches the maximum number of DCIs detected by the terminal within one time unit, the terminal stops DCI within the time unit. detection.

In step 1004, the base station determines the number of DCIs detected by the terminal within the time unit based on the priority order of the multiple DCIs and the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal within one time unit. At least one DCI detected and received in .

In the above embodiment, the terminal can detect and receive DCI based on the priority order of multiple DCIs within one time unit, and the base station can also detect and receive DCI based on the priority order of multiple DCIs and the detection supported by the terminal within one time unit The maximum number of DCIs determines at least one DCI detected and received by the terminal within the time unit. In this disclosure, when the number of DCIs to be received by the terminal exceeds the maximum number of DCIs supported by the terminal within a time unit, both the terminal and the base station can accurately determine the DCI detected and received by the terminal, avoiding the problem of unpredictable terminal behavior. The terminal and the base station have a consistent understanding of data transmission and reception, and avoid system performance degradation.

The above downlink control information detection process is further illustrated as follows with an example.

It is assumed that the terminal is a terminal capable of MBS and supports unicast data transmission. Assuming that the supported PDCCH monitoring capability is FG 3-1, this capability is a mandatory capability for the terminal, and its ability to monitor PDCCH indicates that the terminal can only detect up to two downlink unicast DCIs in one slot.

Referring to FIG. 11A , it is assumed that when the terminal calculates and detects received DCI, it regards group common DCI as unicast DCI, and calculates the number of detected and received DCI together with unicast DCI. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the upper limit of the capability of the terminal to detect DCI is 2 unicast DCIs.

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the base station configures N CSSs of different periods for the terminal to transmit and schedule group common DCI of different MBS services. It is assumed that the RNTI values used for MBS DCI scrambling transmitted in different CSSs are different. At the same time, it is assumed that the USS transmission period configured for the terminal on the network side is one slot, and a specific schematic diagram is shown in FIG. 11A .

In the slot where different search spaces conflict in the time domain, the terminal needs to detect and receive DCI according to its own capabilities and a certain listening sequence. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the method invented in this embodiment is described by taking the DCI processing process of the terminal in slot#0 as an example. In slot#0, there are 3 search space configurations, namely USS, CSS#1 and CSS#2. The terminal side performs DCI detection and reception according to the following method:

The terminal first detects and receives group common DCI in CSS#1 and CSS#2, and continues to detect and receive DCI in USS only when the number of DCIs received in all CSSs is less than 2. The terminal in this slot needs to detect multiple CSSs. When detecting and receiving DCI in the CSS, it needs to perform DCI detection and reception according to the following steps:

According to the group common search space ID, the group common DCI is detected and received in the search space with the lower search space ID first. In this embodiment, the terminal first detects and receives DCI in CSS#1, and if it does not exceed the capability of the terminal, continues to detect and receive DCI in CSS#2.

After the terminal finishes detecting and receiving DCI in the CSS#1 and CSS#2, if the number of DCIs received at this time has not reached the terminal capability limit, it continues to detect and receive DCI in the USS.

Optionally, the base station may send DCI according to related technologies, and determine the specific DCI received by the terminal based on the method provided in this disclosure. Or when the base station sends DCI, it can avoid sending invalid DCI, thereby avoiding energy waste and resource overhead. For another example, as shown in FIG. 11A , when the UE detects DCI in the CSS, it determines the order of detecting and receiving DCI according to the order of RNTI values. In this embodiment, the terminal may determine the DCI detection reception sequence according to the following rules:

According to the order of the size of the RNTI value, the received DCI is first detected in the CSS with the larger RNTI value. For example, the value of G-RNTI configured in CSS#1 is relatively large, and the value of G-RNTI configured in CSS#2 is relatively small, then the terminal first detects and receives DCI in CSS#1. Then, if the amount of DCI received at this time does not exceed the terminal capability limit, continue to detect received DCI in CSS#2.

Or, detect and receive DCI according to the order of RNTI value from small to large.

Or, according to the arrangement order of the RNTIs configured on the network side, detect and receive the DCI in the corresponding CSS according to the order.

Among them, the group common DCI transmitted on the group common search space, both the terminal and the base station can be regarded as unicast downlink DCI.

For another example as shown in FIG. 11B , it is assumed that one CSS can be configured with multiple G-RNTIs, that is, the terminal needs to detect and receive DCI according to multiple G-RNTIs in CSS#1. When the terminal detects DCI in CSS#1, it determines the order of detecting and receiving DCI according to the order of RNTI value. In this embodiment, the terminal may determine the DCI detection reception sequence according to the following rules:

According to the order of the size of the RNTI value, the received DCI is first detected in the CSS with the larger RNTI value. For example, the value of RNTI configured in CSS#1 is relatively large, and the value of RNTI configured in CSS#2 is relatively small, then the terminal first detects and receives DCI in CSS#1. Then, if the amount of DCI received at this time does not exceed the terminal capability limit, continue to detect received DCI in CSS#2.

If there are multiple CSSs, and each CSS corresponds to multiple G-RNTIs, the terminal can first detect CSS#1 in the order of search space identifiers from low to high or from high to low, and in CSS#1 according to The G-RNTI detects and receives DCI sequentially from high to low.

Among them, the group common DCI transmitted on the group common search space, the terminal and the base station can be regarded as unicast downlink DCI.

For another example, as shown in FIG. 11A , the terminal detects and receives corresponding DCI according to the priority order of terminal services, and the first priority order may be configured by the base station through high-layer signaling. The physical side of the terminal can determine the corresponding service according to parameters such as search space, RNTI, and listening period.

When sending DCI, the base station may consider the above method, so as to avoid sending invalid DCI and avoid energy waste and resource overhead.

For another example, as shown in FIG. 11A , when the terminal detects and receives unicast PDCCH and group common PDCCH in the same slot, it detects DCI sequentially according to the order of CORESET ID. In this embodiment, CSS transmitted in lower numbered CORESETs is preferentially detected.

For another example, when sending the DCI, the base station may send it based on a related mechanism, that is, without considering the priority of the DCI. The method for detecting downlink control information provided in the present disclosure is only implemented on the terminal side.

For another example, when detecting and receiving the DCI, the terminal side preferentially detects the USS. If there are multiple USSs or the number of DCIs to be detected and received in the USS exceeds the maximum capability supported by the terminal, first detect and receive DCIs in the USS in the following order:

Detect and receive the DCI according to the number of the search space

Or, according to the order of the CORESET ID, the DCI is first detected and received in the CORESET with the lower CORESET ID

After completing the detection of the USS, if the number of detected DCI received does not exceed the terminal capability, continue to detect and receive DCI in the CSS, and perform detection according to the following sequence and rules until the detected number of received DCI reaches the limit of the terminal capability:

According to the group common search space ID, the group common DCI is detected and received in the search space with the lower search space ID first

Or, detect and receive the group common DCI in the order of RNTI

Or, detect and receive the group common DCI in the order of service

Or, according to the order of CORESET ID, the group common DCI is detected and received in the CORESET with the lower CORESET ID first.

For another example, in this embodiment, a brand new capability is defined for the terminal, and the maximum number of MBS DCIs supported by the terminal within one time unit on one serving cell is defined. This capability is independent of the currently defined terminal capability, and is an additional capability supported by the terminal on the basis of the current capability. The time unit is a slot or a span, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Based on the capability, the terminal detects and receives the group common DCI in the following order

Or, detect and receive the group common DCI in the order of RNTI

Or, detect and receive the group common DCI in the order of service

Wherein, the sum of the maximum group of common DCI numbers indicated by the terminal capability and the number of unicast DCIs detected and received by the terminal within one time unit will not exceed the detection capability supported by the terminal within one time unit. The maximum number of unicast DCIs.
