背景技术
为了实现全球无线接入覆盖，目前提出了非地面网络(Non Terrestrial Network，NTN)架构，其实现主要是依托于卫星，为卫星下方的广大区域提供无线接入服务。
在地面网络(Terrestrial Network，TN)网络中，覆盖增强例如可以通过重复传输来实现，比如说可以在TN网络中为终端设备指示重复传输次数。然而，因为卫星系统的传播距离较长，相同功率的终端设备在NTN网络中，比在TN网络中需要更强的覆盖增强。
所以目前TN网络中的覆盖增强方式，难以满足NTN网络中的覆盖增强需求。

本公开实施例提供了波束指示方法及装置，用以降低波束更新的时延。其中，方法和装置是基于同一申请构思的，由于方法和装置解决问题的原理相似，因此装置和 方法的实施可以相互参见，重复之处不再赘述。
本公开实施例提供的技术方案可以适用于多种系统，尤其是5G系统。例如适用的系统可以是全球移动通讯(global system of mobile communication，GSM)系统、码分多址(code division multiple access，CDMA)系统、宽带码分多址(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access，WCDMA)通用分组无线业务(general packet radio service，GPRS)系统、长期演进(long term evolution，LTE)系统、LTE频分双工(frequency division duplex，FDD)系统、LTE时分双工(time division duplex，TDD)系统、高级长期演进(long term evolution advanced，LTE-A)系统、通用移动系统(universal mobile telecommunication system，UMTS)、全球互联微波接入(worldwide interoperability for microwave access，WiMAX)系统、5G新空口(New Radio,NR)系统等。这多种系统中均包括终端设备和网络设备。系统中还可以包括核心网部分，例如演进的分组系统(Evloved Packet System,EPS)、5G系统(5GS)等。
本公开实施例涉及的终端设备，可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备，具有无线连接功能的手持式设备、或连接到无线调制解调器的其他处理设备等。在不同的系统中，终端设备的名称可能也不相同，例如在5G系统中，终端设备可以称为用户设备(User Equipment，UE)。无线终端设备可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网(Core Network,CN)进行通信，无线终端设备可以是移动终端设备，如移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有移动终端设备的计算机，例如，可以是便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的移动装置，它们与无线接入网交换语言和/或数据。例如，个人通信业务(Personal Communication Service，PCS)电话、无绳电话、会话发起协议(Session Initiated Protocol，SIP)话机、无线本地环路(Wireless Local Loop，WLL)站、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant，PDA)等设备。无线终端设备也可以称为系统、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station)，移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile)、远程站(remote station)、接入点(access point)、远程终端设备(remote terminal)、接入终端设备(access terminal)、用户终端设备(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户装置(user device)，本公开实施例中并不限定。
本公开实施例涉及的网络设备，可以是基站，该基站可以包括多个为终端提供服务的小区。根据具体应用场合不同，基站又可以称为接入点，或者可以是接入网中在空中接口上通过一个或多个扇区与无线终端设备通信的设备，或者其它名称。网络设备可用于将收到的空中帧与网际协议(Internet Protocol，IP)分组进行相互更换，作为无线终端设备与接入网的其余部分之间的路由器，其中接入网的其余部分可包括网际协议(IP)通信网络。网络设备还可协调对空中接口的属性管理。例如，本公开实施例涉及的网络设备可以是全球移动通信系统(Global System for Mobile communications，GSM)或码分多址接入(Code Division Multiple Access，CDMA)中的网络设备(Base Transceiver Station，BTS)，也可以是带宽码分多址接入(Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access，WCDMA)中的网络设备(NodeB)，还可以是长期演进(long term evolution，LTE)系统中的演进型网络设备(evolutional Node B，eNB或e-NodeB)、5G网络架构(next generation system)中的5G基站(gNB)，也可以 是家庭演进基站(Home evolved Node B，HeNB)、中继节点(relay node)、家庭基站(femto)、微微基站(pico)等，本公开实施例中并不限定。在一些网络结构中，网络设备可以包括集中单元(centralized unit，CU)节点和分布单元(distributed unit，DU)节点，集中单元和分布单元也可以地理上分开布置。

为了更好的理解本公开的技术方案，下面对本公开所涉及的相关技术进行进一步的详细介绍。
为了实现全球无线接入覆盖，目前提出了非地面网络(Non Terrestrial Network，NTN)架构，其中非地面网络，顾名思义是相对于传统的地面网络而言，采用典型的如卫星和高空平台(HAP：satellites and High-AlTItude Platforms)参与布网的技术。
下面结合图1对本公开的通信场景进行说明，图1为本公开实施例提供的通信系统的架构示意图。
如图1所示，卫星(Satellite)/无人机系统(unmanned AeriaI system，简称UAS)平台(platform)与网关(gateway)之间，通过馈线链路(Feeder Link)连接，网关连接到数据网(Data Network)。其中馈线电路还可以称为馈电电路。
卫星/无人机系统平台向地面发送波束，以形成波束覆盖区域(Beam Footprint)，每个椭圆形区域对应一个波束覆盖区域。波束覆盖区域内的UE可与卫星/无人机系统之间通过服务链路(Service Link)进行数据通信。
在卫星通信中，存在两种工作模式，分别是透明转发模式和再生通信模式，下面对这两种工作模式分别进行说明。
其中，在透明转发模式中，卫星仅仅透明转发信号，不做任何处理，终端和网关进行通信，即卫星仅对上行/下行信号执行频率变换、无线信号放大等操作，其功能类似射频中继。
以及，在再生通信模式中，卫星可以检测出接收信号的信息并进行处理转发，完成基站的功能，连接终端和网关。即卫星可以对上行/下行信号执行频率变换、无线信号放大、编码/调制、解调/译码等功能。也就是说卫星可以具有gNB全部或者部分功能，可以对信号进行再生。
在上述介绍内容的基础上，下面对NTN网络和TN网络的覆盖增强的相关实现进行介绍。
目前，针对TN网络的覆盖增强是基于Rel-17NR覆盖增强(coverage enhancement)来实现的。而针对NTN的覆盖增强的实现还没有明确的解决方案，当前可以考虑以Rel-17NR覆盖增强课题的研究成果为基础来实现，主要是考虑较长传播时延和卫星移动相关的覆盖增强技术。
下面试图对Rel-17的覆盖增强课题进行说明，在介绍之前，因为下述内容涉及随机接入过程的相关实现，因此首先对随机接入过程进行介绍。
随机接入可以包括四步随机接入(还可以称为四步随机接入信道，或者，还可以简称为4-step RACH)和两步随机接入(还可以称为两步随机接入信道，或者还可以简称为2-step RACH)。下面主要对4-step RACH的过程进行详细说明。
图2为本公开实施例提供的4-step RACH的流程示意图。4-step RACH在现有的协议TS38.300中已经详细定义，本公开只是简单进行了描述。请参见图2，该方法可以包括：
S201、终端设备向网络设备发送Msg1。
Msg1(Message1，消息1)还可以称为msg1、或MSG1。
Msg1用于传输随机接入前导，随机接入前导还可以称为随机接入前导序列、或preamble、或preamble序列。
在本公开实施例中，preamble以及发送preamble所占用的时频资源(RACH Occasion，简称RO，随机接入信道机会)称作为物理随机接入信道(physical random access channel，PRACH)资源。
可选的，终端设备可以选择RO、以及选取一个preamble，并在选择的RO上发送选取的preamble。若随机接入的方式为基于非竞争的随机接入，则可以由基站指定PRACH资源和/或preamble，基站可以基于终端设备发送的preamble估计定时提前量(timing advance，TA)、以及终端设备传输Msg3所需的上行授权大小。
例如，网络设备可以通过系统信息广播可用的PRACH资源。
S202、网络设备向终端设备发送Msg2。
Msg2(Message2，消息2)还可以称为msg2、或MSG2。
其中，Msg2包含了网络设备确定给终端设备用于发送净荷(payload)所使用的时频资源。
终端设备发送Msg1之后，可以开启一个随机接入响应时间窗(ra-Response Window)，在该随机接入响应时间窗内监测随机接入无线网络临时标识(random access radio network temporary identifier，RA-RNTI)加扰的物理下行控制信道(physical downlink control channel，PDCCH)。
其中，RA-RNTI与终端设备发送Msg1所使用的PRACH时频资源有关。
在终端设备成功接收到RA-RNTI加扰的PDCCH之后，终端设备能够获得该PDCCH调度的物理下行共享信道(physical downlink shared channel，PDSCH)，其中包含了随机接入响应(random access response，RAR)。其中，RAR中可以包括如下信息：
RAR的子头中包含回退指示(back-off indicator，BI)，用于指示重传Msg1的回退时间。
RAR中的RAPID：网络响应收到的preamble index。
RAR的净荷(payload)中包含定时提前组(timing advance group，TAG)，用于调整上行定时。
上行(up link，UL)grant：用于调度Msg3的上行资源指示。
临时小区无线网络临时标识(temporary cell radio network temporary identifier，TC-RNTI)：用于加扰调度Msg4和调度Msg3重传的PDCCH。
如果终端接收到RAR-RNTI加扰的PDCCH，并且RAR中包含了自己发送的preamble index，则终端认为成功接收了随机接入响应。
对于基于非竞争的随机接入，终端成功接收Msg2后，随机接入过程结束。对于基于竞争的随机接入，终端设备成功接收Msg2后，还需要继续传输Msg3和接收Msg4。
S203、终端设备向网络设备发送Msg3。
Msg3(Message3，消息3)还可以称为msg3、或MSG3。
其中，Msg3是随机接入过程中的第一个调度传输，发送净荷(payload)，例如，RRC连接请求消息、跟踪区域更新消息等。
Msg3可以通知网络设备该RACH过程是由什么事件触发。例如，如果是初始接入随机过程，则在Msg3中会携带UE ID和成立原因(establishment cause)；如果是RRC重建，则会携带连接态UE标示和成立原因(establishment cause)。
需要说明的是，若不同的终端设备在S301中选择了相同的preamble并且在相同的时频资源上发送该preamble，则该不同的终端设备在相同的时频资源上发送净荷，进而导致资源使用冲突。
S204、网络设备向终端设备发送Msg4。
Msg4(Message4，消息4)还可以称为msg4、或MSG4。
其中，Msg4用于指示该终端设备是否成功的接入到该网络设备。
Msg4可以具有如下两个作用：一个是解决竞争冲突。另一个是网络设备向终端设备传输RRC配置消息。竞争冲突解决有以下两种方式：一种是如果终端设备在Msg3中携带了C-RNTI，则Msg4用C-RNTI加扰的PDCCH调度。另一种是如果终端设备在Msg3中未携带C-RNTI，比如是初始接入，则Msg4用TC-RNTI加扰的PDCCH调度，冲突的解决是终端设备接收Msg4的PDSCH，通过匹配PDSCH中的公共控制信道(common control channel，CCCH)服务数据单元(service data unit，SDU)。
在上述介绍的随机接入过程的基础上，下面对Rel-17的覆盖增强课题进行介绍。
其中，覆盖增强可以通过重复传输来实现。在随机接入过程中，对于Msg3的PUSCH，支持的最大重复传输次数为16。其中，Msg3的PUSCH包括RAR调度的初传和TC-RNTI调度的重传。
在指示Msg3的PUSCH的重复传输次数时，目前的实现方式是在RRC信令中配置四个可能的重复传输次数，然后在RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中，指示使用上述配置的重复传输次数中的哪一个，从而完成Msg3的PUSCH的重复传输次数的确定。
其中，“在RRC信令中配置四个可能的重复传输次数”具体为：
首先，配置或者规定所有可能的重复传输次数，比如说所有可能的重复传输次数可以包括：1、2、3、4、7、8、12、16，其比如说可以通过如下方式配置或者规定：
NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-r17::＝ENUMERATED{n1,n2,n3,n4,n7,n8,n12,n16}
然后，从上述可能的重复传输次数中选择四个，作为Msg3的PUSCH可能使用的重复传输次数，其比如说可以通过如下方式配置：
numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17 SEQUENCE(SIZE(4))OF NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-r17
而“在RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中，指示使用上述配置的重复传输次数中的哪一个”的具体实现可以为：
通过RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中携带的MCS(Modulation and Coding Scheme，调制与编码策略)的高两比特(2MSBs)，指示使用numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17中的哪个取值。
其中，MCS的高两比特可以为如下中的任一种：00、01、10、11。比如：
当MCS的高两比特为00的时候，指示采用numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17中的第1个取值；
当MCS的高两比特为01的时候，指示采用numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17中的第2个取值；
当MCS的高两比特为10的时候，指示采用numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17中的第3个取值；
当MCS的高两比特为11的时候，指示采用numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17中的第4个取值；
比如说numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-R17的取值为：{n1,n4,n8,n16}，也就是说在多个重复传输次数中选择了1、4、8、16这四个重复传输次数。
以及假设RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中MCS的2MSBs取值为01，则可以确定当前是指示采用numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17中的第2个取值。也就是说配置Msg3的实际重复传输次数就是4。
在上述介绍内容的基础上，此处要说明的是，基于卫星系统较长传播距离的特点，相同发射功率的UE在NTN网络中，比在TN网络中可能需要更强的覆盖增强。比如当前存在UE1和UE2，假设UE1和UE2的周围环境相同，例如同样处于地下室或者封闭空间。其中UE1接入TN，UE2接入NTN，那么UE2需要的覆盖增强需求，要比UE1需要的覆盖增强需求大。
因此目前在TN网络中采用的覆盖增强方式(也就是上述介绍的Rel-17的覆盖增强课题的相关实现)，可能难以满足NTN网络中的覆盖增强需求。
基于现有技术中的问题，本公开提出了如下技术构思：为NTN网络引入特有的重复传输次数，或者在目前配置的重复传输次数的相关实现的基础上，为NTN网络引入偏移值，以保证确定的重复传输次数可以满足NTN网络的覆盖增强需求。
下面结合具体的实施例对本公开提供的重复传输次数确定方法进行介绍。图3为本公开实施例提供的重复传输次数确定方法的流程图。
如图3所示，该方法包括：
S301、接收第一指示信息，第一指示信息用于指示使用第一参数确定重复传输次数。
在本实施例中，终端设备可以接收来自网络设备的第一指示信息，第一指示信息可以指示终端设备使用第一参数来确定重复传输次数。其中，第一参数可以理解为，为了满足比现有的重复传输次数更大的重复传输次数所设置的参数。
在一种可能的实现方式中，第一指示信息用于指示使用第一参数确定重复传输次数，具体为：所述第一指示信息有两个状态，第一指示信息的第一状态，指示使用第 一参数确定重复传输次数；第一指示信息的第二状态，指示不使用第一参数确定重复传输次数。则，接收第一指示信息，第一指示信息用于指示使用第一参数确定重复传输次数，具体为：接收第一指示信息，第一指示信息的第一状态用于指示使用第一参数确定重复传输次数。比如，第一指示信息为1比特信息位，该比特信息位设置为1时，代表第一指示信息的第一状态；该比特信息位设置为0时，代表第一指示信息的第二状态。或者，该比特信息位设置为0时，代表第一指示信息的第一状态；该比特信息位设置为1时，代表第一指示信息的第二状态。
在一种可能的实现方式中，本实施例中的第一参数可以包括新设置的重复传输次数集合和/或重复传输次数列表。或者，本实施例中的第一参数还可以包括至少一个偏移值，以保证在现有的重复传输次数的基础上，基于第一参数可以有效的确定相对于现有的重复传输次数更大的重复传输次数，以满足NTN网络更大的覆盖增强的要求。所述现有的重复传输次数，可以理解为TN网络中已经支持的重复传输次数。
或者，第一参数还可以为任意的、可以满足更大的重复传输次数的参数，本实施例对第一参数的具体实现方式不做限定。
S302、使用第一参数确定第一重复传输次数。
终端设备在接收到第一指示信息之后，就会根据第一指示信息，使用第一参数来确定第一重复传输次数。如果第一指示信息包含两个状态，并且第一指示信息的第一状态指示使用第一参数确定重复传输次数时，根据第一指示信息，使用第一参数来确定第一重复传输次数，具体为，如果第一指示信息为第一状态，则使用第一参数来确定第一重复传输次数；否则，如果第一指示信息为第二状态，则不使用第一参数来确定第一重复传输次数。
其中，第一重复传输次数就可以理解为是重复传输第一信息的次数，第一信息，比如说可以是上述介绍的Msg3的PUSCH，或者其还可以是任意的需要重复传输的信息，本实施例对需要重复传输的具体内容也不做限定。
本公开实施例提供的重复传输次数确定方法，包括：接收第一指示信息，第一指示信息用于指示使用第一参数确定重复传输次数。使用第一参数确定第一重复传输次数。通过接收第一指示信息，并根据第一指示信息的指示，使用第一参数来确定第一重复传输次数，因为本实施例中的第一参数是为了可以满足更大的覆盖增强需求所设置的参数，因此使用第一参数确定的第一重复传输次数，可以保证满足NTN网络的重复传输需求，进而可以的保证NTN网络较大的覆盖增强需求。
在上述介绍内容的基础上，可以理解的是，本实施例中的第一参数存在多种可能的实现方式，下面针对第一参数的各种可能的实现方式下，确定第一重复传输次数的实现方式进行详细介绍。
在一种可能的实现方式中，第一参数可以包括第一重复传输次数集合和/或第一重复传输次数列表。
其中，第一重复传输次数集合可以理解为新定义的重复传输次数集合，此处的“新定义”是相对于现有的第二重复传输次数集合而言的。
比如说可以将第一重复传输次数集合称为NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-NTN，在第一重复传输次数集合中包括多个重复传输次数，其中的多个重复传输次数是新配置的 所有可能的重复传输次数。
以及协议中本身存在NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-r17，此处将其称作第二重复传输次数集合，在第二重复传输次数集合中包括现有的配置的所有可能的重复传输次数。
可以理解的是，因为设置第一参数的目的是为了满足更大的覆盖增强需求，因此第一重复传输次数集合中的重复传输次数，可以大于第二重复传输次数集合中的重复传输次数。或者，第一重复传输次数集合中的重复传输次数至少不能全部小于或者等于第二重复传输次数集合中的重复传输次数。
比如说可以是第一重复传输次数集合中最小的重复传输次数，大于第二重复传输次数集合中最大的重复传输次数。或者还可以是第一重复传输次数集合中最大的重复传输次数，大于第二重复传输次数集合中的最大的重复传输次数。
此处可以进行举例说明，比如说第一重复传输次数集合中可以包括如下重复传输次数：20、24、28、32、40、48、52、60、64。那么第一重复传输次数集合的配置实现比如说可以为：
NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-NTN::＝ENUMERATED{n20,n24,n28,n32,n40,n48,n52,n60,n64}。
那么基于上述介绍的NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-r17可以确定的是，第一重复传输次数集合中最小的重复传输次数20，也是大于第二重复传输次数集合中最大的重复传输次数16的。
在实际实现过程中，在第一重复传输次数集合中所包括的重复传输次数的具体实现，可以根据实际需求进行选择和设置，只要其可以提供相较于现有的重复传输次数而言，更大的重复传输次数即可。
以及，第一重复传输次数列表可以理解为新定义的重复传输次数列表，此处的“新定义”同样是相对于现有的第二重复传输次数列表而言的。
其中，第一重复传输次数列表，实际上就包括的是从第一重复传输次数集合中选择的多个重复传输次数，第一重复传输次数列表中包括的是当前为了满足更大的重复传输需求，所选择出来的可能使用的重复传输次数。
比如说可以将第一重复传输次数列表称为numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-NTN，其可以表示为：
numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-NTN SEQUENCE(SIZE(4))OF NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-NTN。
在一个可能的示例中，第一重复传输次数列表比如说可以等于{n20，n32，n48，n64}，也就表示从第一重复传输次数集合中选择了20、32、48、64这四个重复传输次数。
在实际实现过程中，在第一重复传输次数列表中所包括的重复传输次数，可以根据实际需求进行选择，只要第一重复传输次数列表中的重复传输次数，是从第一重复传输次数集合中选择的即可。
此处需要进一步说明的是，在第一参数中所包括的第一重复传输次数集合和、第一重复传输次数列表是“和/或”的关系。
因此，在一种可能的实现方式中，第一参数中可以仅包括第一重复传输次数集合， 则比如说重复传输次数列表仍是复用现有的第二重复传输次数列表numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-r17。
在这种情况下，在存在更大的覆盖增强需求的时候，比如说可以从第一重复传输次数集合中选择多个重复传输次数，从而得到第二重复传输次数列表，之后在第二重复传输次数列表中确定重复传输次数。此时，第二重复传输次数集合可以理解为第一重复传输次数集合。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，第一参数中还可以仅包括第一重复传输次数列表，则比如说重复传输次数集合仍是采用现有的第二重复传输次数集合NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-r17。
在这种情况下，比如说可以对第二重复传输次数集合中包括的重复传输次数进行扩展，以使得第二重复传输次数集合在现有的重复传输次数的基础上，包括更大的重复传输次数。则在存在更大的覆盖增强需求的时候，比如说可以从第二重复传输次数集合中选择多个较大的重复传输次数，从而得到第一重复传输次数列表，之后在第一重复传输次数列表中确定重复传输次数。此时，扩展后的第二重复传输次数集合可以理解为第一重复传输次数集合。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，第一参数中还可以同时包括第一重复传输次数列表和第一重复传输次数集合。
在这种情况下，在存在更大的覆盖增强需求的时候，可以从第一重复传输次数集合中选择多个重复传输次数，从而得到第一重复传输次数列表，之后在第一重复传输次数列表中确定重复传输次数。
以及在一种可能的理解方式中，本实施例中的第一重复传输次数集合以及第一重复传输次数列表，还可以理解为针对NTN网络设置的。也就是说针对NTN网络特殊设置了重复传输次数集合和重复传输次数列表，以保证满足NTN网络更大的覆盖增强需求。
但是针对这种理解方式，需要进一步说明的是，在TN网络的场景下，如果终端设备存在更大的覆盖增强需求，那么TN网络下也可以使用第一重复传输次数集合和/或第一重复传输次数列表，以确定更大的重复传输次数。
以及本实施例中的第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表还可以理解为是针对TN网络设置的。但是同样的，在NTN网络的场景下，如果终端设备的覆盖增强需求不大，那么NTN网络下也可以使用第二重复传输次数集合和/或第二重复传输次数列表，以确定合适的重复传输次数。
在一种可能的实现方式中，上述介绍的第一重复传输次数集合以及第一重复传输次数列表，可以是网络设备确定并发送给终端设备的。
比如说网络设备可以向所有的NTN小区中的终端设备发送上述介绍的第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表，或者终端设备还可以仅向支持更大的覆盖增强需求的NTN小区的终端设备发送上述介绍的第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表，或者网络设备还可以向支持更大的覆盖增强需求的TN小区的终端设备发送上述介绍的第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表，具体的发送方式可以取决于网络设备的具体实现，本实施例对此不做限制。可选的，比如所述第一重复 传输次数集合是协议规定的，不需要网络发送给终端设备。
其中，第一重复传输次数集合和/或第一重复传输次数列表比如说可以在NTN专用的系统消息(比如说SIB19)中发送，其中SIB为系统信息块(system information block)。在实际实现过程中，NTN专用的系统消息还可以随着技术的发展进行相应的扩展和实现。
以及需要说明的是，上述针对R17设置的第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表，还是正常通过BWP-UplinkCommon(带宽部分-上行链路通用)配置的。
基于上述介绍的内容可以确定的是，若第一参数包括第一重复传输次数集合，则在协议中就包括两个重复传输次数集合，分别是第一重复传输次数集合NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-NTN和第二重复传输次数集合NumberOfMsg3-Repetitions-r17。
以及，若第一参数包括第一重复传输次数列表，则在协议中就包括两个重复传输次数列表，分别是第一重复传输次数列表numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-NTN和第二重复传输次数列表numberOfMsg3-RepetitionsList-R17。
与上述介绍的类似，网络设备同样可以通过RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中携带的MCS的高两比特，来指示采用重复传输次数列表中的哪一个重复传输次数，但是因为当前存在两个重复传输次数列表，因此还需要进一步为终端设备指示一下，采用哪个重复传输次数列表来确定重复传输次数。
在一种可能的实现方式中，网络设备可以判断终端设备传输Msg3是否需要更大的重复传输次数，如果需要的话，则网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息，第一指示信息就指示终端设备使用第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数。或者，网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息的第一状态，第一指示信息的第一状态就指示终端设备使用第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数。
或者，如果网络设备确定终端设备传输Msg3不需要更大的重复传输次数，则网络设备可以不发送第一指示信息，如果终端设备没有接收到第一指示信息的话，终端设备就可以使用第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数。或者，网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息的第二状态，第一指示信息的第二状态就指示终端设备使用第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数。
其中，网络设备在判断Msg3是否需要更大的重复传输次数的时候，实际上是要确定传输Msg3所需要的重复传输次数是否大于现有的R17中的最大重复传输次数，也就是说现有的R17中的重复传输次数不够。
其判断的实现方式比如说可以是，网络设备基于接收到的终端设备发送的preamble信号的质量，来判断终端设备的覆盖增强需求，并根据终端设备的覆盖增强需求，来确定传输Msg3所需要的重复传输次数。并且根据传输Msg3所需要的重复传输次数来确定是否向终端设备发送第一指示信息。
例如网络设备可以通过接收终端设备的preamble，确定终端设备需要不需要覆盖增强，或者确定终端设备需要较小的覆盖增强，在这种情况下，网络设备可以不向终 端设备发送第一指示信息，或者网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息的第二状态，以使得终端设备不做更大的覆盖增强，或者根据传统的第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数。
或者，若网络设备确定终端设备需要较大的覆盖增强，则网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息，或者，网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息的第一状态，以使得终端设备根据第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数。
其中，终端设备在第一重复传输次数列表中确定第一重复传输次数的时候，比如说可以首先获取第二指示信息，之后确定第一重复传输次数列表中，第二指示信息指示的重复传输次数确定为第一重复传输次数。
其中，第二指示信息比如说可以是上述介绍的RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI，其中携带的MCS的高两比特会指示采用第一重复传输次数列表中的哪一个重复传输次数。
在上述介绍内容的基础上，下面结合一个具体的示例，对终端设备使用第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数的实现进行介绍。
比如说可以结合图4进行理解，图4为本公开实施例提供的确定重复传输次数的实现示意图一。
如图4所示，假设当前的第二重复传输次数集合包括：1、2、3、4、7、8、12、16。以及在第二重复传输次数集合中选择的第二重复传输次数列表包括：1、4、8、16。
以及，假设当前的第一重复传输次数集合包括：20、24、28、32、40、48、52、60、64。以及在第一重复传输次数集合中选择的第一重复传输次数列表包括：20、32、48、64。
同时，假设RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中MCS的2MSBs取值为01，则表示采用重复传输次数列表中的第二个重复传输次数，那么对应于第一重复传输次数列表就是32，对应于第二重复传输次数列表就是4。
在一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备接收到了网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其采用第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以确定第一重复传输次数是在第一重复传输次数列表中确定的32。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备没有接收到网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其采用第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以确定第一重复传输次数是在第二重复传输次数列表确定的4。
本公开实施例提供的重复传输次数确定方法，通过新配置第一重复传输次数集合和第一重复传输次数列表，在第一重复传输次数集合中可以包括比R17中更大的重复传输次数，从而保证可以在第一重复传输次数集合中选择得到第一重复传输次数列表，之后在第一重复传输次数列表中选择第一重复传输次数，可以有效的满足更大的覆盖增强需求。以及基于上述介绍可以确定的是，本实施例中的终端设备在接收到网络设备发送的第一指示信息的时候，会采用第一重复传输次数列表来确定重复传输次数， 以保证可以满足更大的重复传输需求，而终端设备在没有接收到网络设备发送的第一指示信息的时候，仍然会按照传统的第一重复传输次数列表来确定重复传输次数，因此还有效保证了和现有的覆盖增强方案的兼容，同时还保证了可以为终端设备确定合适的重复传输次数。
下面对第一信息包括至少一个偏移值的实现方式进行说明。
与上述介绍的类似，本实施例中的至少一个第一偏移值可以是网络设备确定并发送给终端设备的。
比如说网络设备可以向所有的NTN小区中的终端设备发送至少一个偏移值，或者终端设备还可以仅向支持更大的覆盖增强需求的NTN小区的终端设备发送至少一个偏移值，或者网络设备还可以向支持更大的覆盖增强需求的TN小区的终端设备发送至少一个偏移值，具体的发送方式可以取决于网络设备的具体实现，本实施例对此不做限制。
类似的，至少一个偏移值比如说可以在NTN专用的系统消息(比如说SIB19)中发送，或者还可以采用其余任意的NTN专用的系统消息，本实施例对此不做限定。
以及需要说明的是，网络设备还是会正常的配置上述介绍的第二重复传输次数集合和第二重复传输次数列表，比如说可以通过BWP-UplinkCommon配置。
可以理解的是，尽管为终端设备配置了偏移值，但是并不是每一次终端设备确定重复传输次数都要使用偏移值，而是在确定终端设备需要更大的重复传输次数的时候，才指示终端设备使用偏移值。
与上述介绍的类似，网络设备比如说可以判断终端设备传输Msg3是否需要更大的重复传输次数，如果需要的话，则网络设备可以向终端设备发送第一指示信息，第一指示信息就指示终端设备使用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数。
或者，如果网络设备确定终端设备传输Msg3不需要更大的重复传输次数，则网络设备可以不发送第一指示信息，如果终端设备没有接收到第一指示信息的话，终端设备就可以不使用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，也就是说按照传统的方式来确定第一重复传输次数。
其中，网络设备在判断Msg3是否需要更大的重复传输次数的时候，其实现方式与上述介绍的类似，此处不再赘述。
在本实施例中，若终端设备需要根据偏移值确定第一重复传输次数，则比如说终端设备可以首先获取第三指示信息，之后确定第二重复传输次数列表中，第三指示信息指示的重复传输次数为候选重复传输次数，然后根据候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值，确定实际的第一重复传输次数。
在一种可能的实现方式中，比如说可以确定候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值之和为第一重复传输次数；或者，还可以确定候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值的乘积为第一重复传输次数。本实施例对候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值的具体运算方式不做限制，只要候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值进行运算之后，可以得到比候选重复传输次数更大的第一重复传输次数即可，其具体的运算方式可以根据实际需求进行选择和设置。
以及，因为在第一参数中包括至少一个偏移值，此处的第一偏移值就可以理解从 至少一个偏移值中选择的，用于确定实际重复传输次数的偏移值。
与上述介绍的类似，第三指示信息比如说可以是上述介绍的RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI，其中携带的MCS的高两比特会指示采用第二重复传输次数列表中的哪一个重复传输次数。
在上述介绍内容的基础上，下面结合几个具体的示例，对终端设备使用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数的实现进行介绍，以及对第一偏移值的多种可能的实现方式进行说明。
比如说可以结合图5对第一参数中仅包括一个偏移值的情况进行理解，图5为本公开实施例提供的确定重复传输次数的实现示意图二。
如图5所示，假设当前的第二重复传输次数集合包括：1、2、3、4、7、8、12、16。以及在第二重复传输次数集合中选择的第二重复传输次数列表包括：1、4、8、16。
同时，假设RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中MCS的2MSBs取值为01，则表示采用重复传输次数列表中的第二个重复传输次数，那么对应于第二重复传输次数列表就是4，那么可以确定候选重复传输次数就是4
以及假设在本实施例中，在第一参数中仅包括一个偏移值，那么第一偏移值就是第一参数中所包括的这个偏移值。比如说在图5的示例中，在第一参数中仅仅包括偏移值V1，那么V1就是本实施例中的第一偏移值。
在一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备接收到了网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以根据候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数。比如说如图5所示，可以将候选重复传输次数4和第一偏移值V1之和，确定为第一重复传输次数，第一重复传输次数就等于4+V1。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备没有接收到网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其不采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以直接将候选重复传输次数确定为第一重复传输次数。因此参照图5，第一重复传输次数就等于4。
再比如说可以结合图6对第一参数中包括多个偏移值的一种情况进行理解，图6为本公开实施例提供的确定重复传输次数的实现示意图三。
如图6所示，假设当前的第二重复传输次数集合包括：1、2、3、4、7、8、12、16。以及在第二重复传输次数集合中选择的第二重复传输次数列表包括：1、4、8、16。
同时，假设RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中MCS的2MSBs取值为01，则表示采用重复传输次数列表中的第二个重复传输次数，那么对应于第二重复传输次数列表就是4，那么可以确定候选重复传输次数就是4
以及假设在本实施例中，在第一参数中包括多个偏移值，同时，本实施例中的多个偏移值和第二重复列表中的多个重复传输次数存在对应关系。比如说如图5所示，在第一参数中包括4个偏移值，分别是V1、V2、V3、V4，以及在第二重复列表中存在4个重复传输次数。其中V1是重复传输次数1对应的偏移值，V2是重复传输次数4对应的偏移值，V3是重复传输次数8对应的偏移值，V4是重复传输次数16对应的偏移值。
在这种情况下，第一偏移值就是候选重复传输次数所对应的偏移值，在当前的示例中，候选重复传输次数为4，那么可以确定第一偏移值就是V2。
在一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备接收到了网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以根据候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数。比如说如图6所示，可以将候选重复传输次数4和第一偏移值V2之和，确定为第一重复传输次数，第一重复传输次数就等于4+V2。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备没有接收到网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其不采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以直接将候选重复传输次数确定为第一重复传输次数。因此参照图6，第一重复传输次数就等于4。
再比如说可以结合图7对第一参数中包括多个偏移值的另一种情况进行理解，图7为本公开实施例提供的确定重复传输次数的实现示意图四。
如图7所示，假设当前的第二重复传输次数集合包括：1、2、3、4、7、8、12、16。以及在第二重复传输次数集合中选择的第二重复传输次数列表包括：1、4、8、16。
同时，假设RAR或者TC-RNTI加扰的DCI中MCS的2MSBs取值为01，则表示采用重复传输次数列表中的第二个重复传输次数，那么对应于第二重复传输次数列表就是4，那么可以确定候选重复传输次数就是4。
以及假设在本实施例中，在第一参数中包括多个偏移值。比如说如图5所示，在第一参数中包括5个偏移值，分别是V1、V2、V3、V4、V5。
在这种情况下，第一偏移值可以是通过第四指示信息指示的偏移值，如图5所示，比如说第四指示信息指示采用偏移值V3，那么可以确定第一偏移值就是V3。
在一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备接收到了网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以根据候选重复传输次数和第一偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数。比如说如图7所示，可以将候选重复传输次数4和第一偏移值V3之和，确定为第一重复传输次数，第一重复传输次数就等于4+V3。
在另一种可能的实现方式中，如果终端设备没有接收到网络设备发送的第一指示信息，那么终端设备可以确定网络设备指示其不采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，因此终端设备可以直接将候选重复传输次数确定为第一重复传输次数。因此参照图7，第一重复传输次数就等于4。
针对当前这种通过第四指示信息指示偏移值的实现方式，在第一参数中包括的多个偏移值和第二重复列表中的多个重复传输次数可以不存在对应关系。或者，在第一参数中包括的多个偏移值和第二重复列表中的多个重复传输次数，仍然可以存在对应关系。也就是说即使第一参数中包括的多个偏移值和第二重复列表中的多个重复传输次数存在对应关系，仍然可以通过第四指示信息来指示第一偏移值。
本公开实施例提供的重复传输次数确定方法，通过为终端设备配置至少一个偏移值，在终端设备需要更大的重复传输次数的时候，可以指示终端设备根据从第二重复传输次数列表中选择的候选重复传输次数，以及第一偏移值，来确定实际的第一偏移 值，从而可以有效的提供更大的重复传输次数，进而满足更大的覆盖增强需求。以及可以根据终端设备实际的覆盖需求，指示终端设备是否采用偏移值来确定第一重复传输次数，从而可以在保证兼容现有的重复传输次数确定方式的基础上，同时有效的保证可以为终端设备确定合适的重复传输次数。
在上述介绍的各个实施例的基础上，下面再对终端设备接收第一指示信息的可能的实现方式进行说明。
在一种可能的实现方式中，终端设备比如说可以接收第一消息，在第一消息中携带了本实施例中的第一指示信息。
其中，第一消息为如下消息中的至少一种消息：RAR、TC-RNTI加扰的DCI。
下面结合图8对第一消息为RAR的时候，携带第一指示信息的实现方式进行理解，图8为本公开实施例提供的第一消息携带第一指示信息的实现示意图。
如图8所示，在RAR中包括定时提前量命令(Timing advance command)、上行授权(UL grant)、TC-RNTI等等字段。
以及在RAR中还存在一个预留位，比如说可以在RAR的这个预留位中携带第一指示信息。
或者，UL grant中的CSI request字段目前也是没有使用的，也可以用来携带第一指示信息。
比如说可以参照如下表1理解RAR中Grant内容的字段内容。
表1：
基于上述表1，其中的CSI request字段目前是没有使用的，因此可以用来携带第一指示信息。
或者，第一消息为TC-RNTI加扰的DCI时，在TC-RNTI加扰的DCI Format 0_0中也有多个bit的预留位，比如说New data indicator这个1比特的预留位，再比如说HARQ process number这个4比特的预留位，再比如Padding bits这个预留位。
在上述介绍内容的基础上，可以理解的是，本实施例对第一消息的实际实现方式不做限制，只要第一消息中存在预留位，可以用来携带本实施例中的第一指示信息即可，在此基础上，第一消息的具体实现方式可以根据实际需求进行选择和设置。
在一种可能的实现方式中，比如说上述介绍的第一消息中的预留位为1的时候，可以表示网络设备指示终端设备使用第一参数确定重复传输次数，第一消息中的预留位为0的时候，可以表示网络设备没有指示终端设备使用第一参数确定重复传输次数。
以及在可选的实现方式中，上述介绍的用于指示第一偏移值的第四指示信息同样可以是携带在第一消息中的，其实现方式与当前介绍的第一指示信息类似，此处不再赘述。或者第四指示信息还可以是单独发送的指示信息，本实施例对第四指示信息的具体实现方式不做限制。
以及，上述各实施例主要介绍的都是终端设备一侧的相关实现，实际上网络设备一侧的相关实现都是对应的，因此本公开中对网络设备一侧的具体实现不再赘述，其具体实现可以参照上述实施例的介绍。
综上所述，本公开实施例提供的重复传输次数确定方法，通过为终端设备配置第一参数，其中的第一参数可以包括新配置的重复传输次数集合和/或重复传输次数列表，或者第一参数还可以包括至少一个偏移值，之后指示终端设备使用第一参数确定实际的重复传输次数，从而可以在目前配置的覆盖增强技术的基础上，为终端设备提供相对于现有的重复传输次数更大的重复传输次数，进而可以有效的在NTN场景下支持更高的覆盖增强需求，从而尽量保证UE可以在信道质量恶劣的情况下也能够接入NTN网络。
