Abstract

本申请实施例提供一种信息收发方法以及装置。该方法包括：网络设备向终端设备发送参考信号集配置信息以及汇报配置信息，所述参考信号集包括第一参考信号集和/或第二参考信号集；接收来自所述终端设备的第一汇报。

Description

信息收发方法与装置，以及通信系统 技术领域
本申请实施例涉及通信技术领域。
背景技术
随着低频段频谱资源变得稀缺，毫米波频段能够提供更大带宽，成为了5G NR(New Radio，新无线)系统的重要频段。毫米波由于波长较短，具有与传统低频段不同的传播特性，例如更高的传播损耗，反射和衍射性能差等。因此通常会采用更大规模的天线阵列，以形成增益更大的赋形波束，克服传播损耗，确保系统覆盖。5G NR标准为波束管理设计了波束扫描，波束测量，波束汇报，波束指示等一系列的方案。但当收发波束数目比较大的时候，会大大增加系统的负荷和延时。
伴随着人工智能(Artificial Intelligence，AI)技术的发展，将人工智能技术应用到无线通信物理层上，来解决传统方法的难点成为当前一个技术方向。对于波束管理而言，利用AI模型，根据少量波束测量的结果预测出空间上最优的波束对，能够大幅度减少系统的负荷和延时。
应该注意，上面对技术背景的介绍只是为了方便对本申请的技术方案进行清楚、完整的说明，并方便本领域技术人员的理解而阐述的。不能仅仅因为这些方案在本申请的背景技术部分进行了阐述而认为上述技术方案为本领域技术人员所公知。
发明内容
在传统的波束测量汇报中，网络设备为终端设备的波束测量配置参考信号集，并为测量的汇报做相应的配置，其中汇报配置包含参考信号集的信息，指明终端设备测量该参考信号集中的参考信号的质量，并汇报给网络设备。终端设备按照网络设备的配置测量参考信号的质量，并将汇报量汇报给网络设备，此时汇报量为根据测量得到的测量量。其中，汇报的内容包含测量量，以及测量量所对应参考信号资源指示。
如果AI模型部署在终端设备侧，网络设备配置用于波束测量的参考信号集，终端设备可以测量该参考信号集中的参考信号，得到测量量，将测量量作为AI模型的输入，得到预测量。终端设备汇报的汇报量可以是测量量和/或预测量，但当汇报的 汇报量为预测量时，还需要上报该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示，然而会存在该预测量对应的参考信号或波束(对)不包含在用于波束测量的参考信号集中的情况，因此，该参考信号资源指示无法指示出该预测量对应的参考信号或波束(对)。
针对上述问题的至少之一，本申请实施例提供一种信息收发方法、装置以及通信系统。
根据本申请实施例的一个方面，提供一种信息收发装置，应用于终端设备，所述装置包括：
第一发送单元，其向终端设备发送参考信号集配置信息以及汇报配置信息，所述参考信号集包括第一参考信号集和/或第二参考信号集；
第一接收单元，其接收来自所述终端设备的第一汇报。
根据本申请实施例的另一个方面，提供一种信息收发装置，应用于网络设备，所述装置包括：
第二接收单元，其接收网络设备发送的参考信号集配置信息以及汇报配置信息，所述参考信号集包括第一参考信号集和/或第二参考信号集；
第二发送单元，其向所述网络设备发送第一汇报。
根据本申请实施例的另一个方面，提供一种通信系统，包括终端设备和/或网络设备，所述终端设备包括前述一方面所述的信息收发装置，所述网络设备包括前述另一方面所述的信息收发装置。
本申请实施例的有益效果之一在于：通过上述实施例，网络设备通过第二指示信息为参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集建立关联，由此使得终端设备在上报汇报量时，能够正确的指示出各汇报量所对应的波束(对)信息，即参考预测集中的参考信号资源，解决现有技术中的上述问题。或者，终端设备通过在汇报实例中新增第三指示信息，指明汇报量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号集，由此使得终端设备在上报汇报量时，能够正确的指示出各汇报量所对应的波束(对)信息，即参考预测集中的参考信号资源，解决现有技术中的上述问题。

图1是本申请实施例的通信系统的示意图，示意性说明了以终端设备和网络设备为例的情况，如图1所示，通信系统100可以包括网络设备101和终端设备102、103。为简单起见，图1仅以两个终端设备和一个网络设备为例进行说明，但本申请实施例不限于此。

AI模型(或ML模型)包括但不限于：输入层(input)、多个卷积层、连接层(concat)、全连接层(FC)以及量化器等。其中，多个卷积层的处理结果在连接层进行合并，关于AI模型的具体结构可以参考现有技术，此处不再赘述。
在5G和6G系统中，定义了非常广泛的终端技术特征(UE feature)。并不是所有的特征都是终端设备必须支持的。网络通过终端设备能力，即UE能力(UE capablity)查询和上报来了解UE的特征支持情况，从而使网络对UE的能力可能有了解，为其后续对终端的调度、配置和通信提供了基础。
为了支持终端功能的多样性，现有标准为终端预定义的多个特征(feature)，每个特征进一步预定义一个或者多个特征组(feature group)，每个特征组里预定义了一 个或者多个组件(component)，并为特征、特征组、组件分别定义了标识或者序号。根据目前5G-Advanced及6G的技术趋势，当一个终端设备能力可能支持多个AI/ML的功能或者模型时，可以为AI/ML的功能或者模型预定义相应的特征或者特征组。
当将AI/ML模型应用于波束管理时，例如波束空域预测，波束时域预测等，可以分别预定义为一个特征，例如波束空域预测的AI/ML特征，波束时域预测的AI/ML特征等，也可以将支持AI/ML模型做波束管理预定义为一个特征，并分别预定义一个或者多个特征组，例如波束空域预测的AI/ML特征组，波束时序预测的AI/ML特征组等。对于如何将AI/ML的功能或者模型定义成特征或者特征组本申请不做限制。
在基于功能的生命周期管理进程中，当终端支持多个AI/ML的功能时，一个AI/ML的功能可以由一个AI/ML特征或者一个AI/ML的特征组来定义。
在基于模型的生命周期管理进程中，当终端支持多个AI/ML的模型时，一个AI/ML的模型可以由一个AI/ML特征或者一个AI/ML的特征组来定义。
上述AI/ML的功能或者模型及相关的参数可以通过预定义特征或者特征组规定出来，用于网络侧和终端侧沟通能力信息时的共同理解。
在本申请实施例中，功能或者模型也可以称为特征或者特征组，不同的特征或者特征组包含相应的参数，或应用条件。不同的特征或者特征组可以具有标识(ID)或对应的索引(index)或逻辑标识。
这样，当终端支持多个AI/ML的功能或者模型时，所述功能或者模型可以由功能和/或模型标识或者逻辑标识来区分，也可以由特征或者特征组的标识或者序号来区分。
在基于功能的生命周期管理进程中，为实现某一功能，终端设备可以具体的由一个AI/ML模型或多个AI/ML模型实现，或者，多个功能可以由一个AI/ML模型来实现，其具体的实现方式，不需要告知网络设备。
在基于功能的生命周期管理进程中，当一个功能由多个模型实现时，不同的模型可以对应不同的场景，不同的站址，不同的cell，不同的配置，不同的应用条件等，由模型的训练开发过程决定。
以下实施例中，“参考信号”和“波束(对)”和“参考信号资源”可以互换。
发明人发现，当AI模型部署在终端设备侧来进行波束(对)的预测时，存在两种参考信号集，包括：参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集，其中，参考信号的测 量集是指用于波束测量的参考信号的集合(即模型输入的测量量对应的参考信号的集合)，参考信号的预测集是指波束预测量对应的参考信号的集合(即模型输出的预测量对应的参考信号的集合)。
例如，存在至少以下两个预测场景：(一)AI模型用部分波束(对)的测量量输出全部波束(对)的预测量，此时，参考信号的测量集是预测集的子集。(二)AI模型用宽波束(SSB)的测量量输出细波束的预测量时，参考信号的测量集为SSB信号集合，参考信号的预测集为CSI-RS信号集合，因此，参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集并非同一个参考信号集合。
在终端设备向网络设备汇报预测量时，实际上，预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示对应于参考信号预测集，而非参考信号测量集。但按照现有标准的定义，是基于参考信号的测量集来进行参考信号资源指示，由于参考信号的测量集和预测集并非同一集合，将会出现预测量所对应的参考信号，或者说波束(对)，不包含在测量集中的情况，因此，在汇报预测量时，无法指示出该预测量对应的参考信号或波束(对)。
针对上述问题，本申请实施例提供一种信息收发方法以及装置，以下结合附图和实施例进行说明。
第一方面的实施例
本申请实施例提供一种信息收发方法，从网络设备侧进行说明。
图2是本申请实施例的信息收发方法的一示意图，如图2所示，该方法包括：
201，网络设备向终端设备发送参考信号集配置信息以及汇报配置信息，所述参考信号集包括第一参考信号集和/或第二参考信号集；
202，该网络设备接收来自所述终端设备的第一汇报。
值得注意的是，以上附图2仅对本申请实施例进行了示意性说明，但本申请不限于此。例如可以适当地调整各个操作之间的执行顺序，此外还可以增加其他的一些操作或者减少其中的某些操作。本领域的技术人员可以根据上述内容进行适当地变型，而不仅限于上述附图2的记载。
在一些实施例中，网络设备可以为终端设备配置多个参考信号(资源)集，该参考信号可以是CSI-RS和/或SSB等参考信号，例如，该配置的参考信号集是参考信号列表，每个参考信号集由一个或者多个参考信号组成，换句话说，网络设备可以向 终端设备发送参考信号配置信息，该参考信号配置信息中包括参考信号集的标识以及构成参考信号集的一个或者多个参考信号的标识。
例如，在参考信号为SSB时，该参考信号配置信息可以用SSB资源集配置信息元CSI-SSB-ResourceSet来承载，包括参考信号集的标识csi-SSB-ResourceSetId；例如，在参考信号为CSI-RS时，该参考信号配置信息可以用非零功率CSI-RS资源集配置信息元NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet来承载，包括参考信号集的标识nzp-CSI-ResourceSetId；或者参考信号配置信息可以用信息元CSI-ResourceConfig来承载，包括一个或者多个参考信号集的配置信息，关于各个信息元的数据格式可以参考相关技术，此处不再一一示例，本申请实施例也并不以此作为限制。
在一些实施例中，除了参考信号配置信息外，网络设备还可以向终端设备发送汇报配置信息，在该汇报配置信息(例如用信息元CSI-ReportConfig来承载)中，可以包含汇报配置标识、上报配置类型，包括周期periodic、半周期semiPersistentOnPUCCH/semiPersistentOnPUSCH、非周期aperiodic三种、汇报量(quantity)类型(例如L1-RSRP(L1Reference Signal Receiving Power，层1参考信号接收功率)或L1-SINR(L1Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio，层1信号与干扰加噪声比))、以及参考信号集的标识，该参考信号集的标识是参考信号配置信息中的参考信号集标识的一个或多个。
以上参考信号配置和汇报配置中还可以包括其他信息，具体可以参考相关技术，本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。
在一些实施例中，参考信号配置信息配置的参考信号集包括第一参考信号集和/或第二参考信号集，该第一参考信号集可以用于波束测量，该第二参考信号集可以用于波束预测，也即第一参考信号集是参考信号的测量集，该第二参考信号集是参考信号的预测集；或者该第二参考信号集可以用于波束测量，该第一参考信号集可以用于波束预测，也即第二参考信号集是参考信号的测量集，该第一参考信号集是参考信号的预测集，但本申请实施例并不以此作为限制，该第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集还可以用于其他波束管理功能，此处不再一一示例，该第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集可以是CSI-RS参考信号集和/或SSB参考信号集。
在一些实施例中，为了方便区分前述参考信号集的用途，网络设备还可以向所述终端设备发送第一指示信息，所述第一指示信息指示所述第一参考信号集至少用于波 束测量，或者，用于波束预测。该第一指示信息可以由无线资源控制信令(RRC)，介质访问控制(MAC)控制单元(CE)或者下行控制信息(DCI)承载，上述RRC或MAC CE或DCI可以是现有的，也可以是新增的，例如，该第一指示信息可以由前述参考信号配置信息元或者汇报配置信息元承载。本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。
例如，该第一指示信息可以是参考信号配置信息元中新增的1比特的信息，在该1比特的比特值为1时，指示该参考信号配置信息元中配置的第一参考信号集是参考信号的测量集，用于波束测量，在比特值为0时，指示该参考信号配置信息元中配置的第一参考信号集是参考信号的预测集，用于波束预测，反之亦可。
例如，该第一指示信息可以是汇报配置信息元中新增的1比特的信息，在该1比特的比特值为1时，指示该汇报配置信息元中配置的第一参考信号集是参考信号的测量集，用于波束测量，在比特值为0时，指示该参考信号配置信息元中配置的第一参考信号集是参考信号的预测集，用于波束预测，反之亦可。
以上仅为示例说明，还可以设计新的信令承载该第一指示信息，此处不再一一示例。
在一些实施例中，终端设备和网络设备之间可以通过额外的信令配置第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集的关系，更具体的，网络设备为终端设备AI模型所需的两种参考信号集配置关联信息，以下详细说明。
在一些实施例中，网络设备向终端设备发送第二指示信息，所述第二指示信息指示一个以上所述第二参考信号集，所述一个以上所述第二参考信号集与所述第一参考信号集关联，其中，所述一个以上第二参考信号集与所述第一参考信号集关联表示一个以上第二参考信号集与第一参考信号集相关(或对应或匹配或配对)。也就是说，该第二指示信息可以为参考信号的测量集指示其关联的一个以上参考信号的预测集，或者该第二指示信息可以为参考信号的预测集指示其关联的一个以上参考信号的测量集，由此，建立参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集的对应关系(关联关系或匹配关系或配对关系)。例如，参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集分别对应于终端设备侧AI模型的输入和输出，参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集(第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集)有关联，可以表示参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集对应于一个AI模型的输入和输出，也可以说，在参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集对应于一个AI模型的输入和输出时，该参考信号的测量集和该参考信号的预测集 相关(有关联或对应或匹配或配对)。
在一些实施例中，针对不同的第一参考信号集，可以关联相同的第二参考信号集(数量和标识都相同)，或者关联不同的第二参考信号集(数量不同和/或标识不同)，本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。以下说明如何确定哪些参考信号集(第四参考信号集)可以(能够)与第一参考信号集关联。
在一些实施例中，所述第一参考信号集所关联的一个以上(N个)第四参考信号集至少通过所述终端设备的特征/特征组或者所述终端设备的能力汇报得到。所述一个以上(M个)第二参考信号集是所述一个以上(N个)第四参考信号集中的部分(M小于N)或全部(M等于N)参考信号集，M和N为大于或等于1的整数。也就是说，通过所述终端设备的特征/特征组或者所述终端设备的能力汇报得到第一参考信号集可以(能够)与N个第四参考信号集关联，在使用第二指示信息指示第二参考信号集时，可以根据其实现算法从N个第四参考信号集中选择或者配置M个第四参考信号集作为与第一参考信号集关联的M个第二参考信号集。
在一些实施例中，在一个或者多个AI模型和/或功能的参数通过终端设备的特征/特征组或者在终端的能力汇报中定义时，网络设备在获得相应的模型参数(如AI模型的输入输出的维度，测量集的图样pattern等)后，根据模型参数来确定不同参考信号集是否可以相关，或者说是否可以作为AI模型的输入和输出。
例如，终端设备侧有2个AI模型，其中一个AI模型输入维度为16，输出维度为64，另一个AI模型输入维度为16，输出维度为128，那么针对维度为16的参考信号集(测量集、第一参考信号集)，通过所述终端设备的特征/特征组或者所述终端设备的能力汇报得到的可以关联的参考信号集(第四参考信号集)为维度为64和128的参考信号集(预测集)。网络设备可以选择或者配置维度为64和128的参考信号集(全部第四参考信号集)作为与第一参考信号集关联的两个第二参考信号集，也可以根据其实现算法(例如网络设备期望该终端设备波束预测的AI模型能够获得更好的预测精度时)从两个第四参考信号集中选择或者配置一个维度为64的参考信号集作为与第一参考信号集关联的一个第二参考信号集。
例如，终端设备侧有2个AI模型，其中一个AI模型输入维度为16，输出维度为64，另一个AI模型输入维度为32，输出维度为64，那么针对维度为64的参考信号集(预测集、第一参考信号集)，通过所述终端设备的特征/特征组或者所述终端设 备的能力汇报得到的可以关联的参考信号集(第四参考信号集)为维度为16和32的参考信号集(测量集)。网络设备可以选择或者配置维度为16和32的参考信号集(全部第四参考信号集)作为与第一参考信号集关联的两个第二参考信号集，也可以根据其实现算法(例如终端设备期望该终端设备波束预测模型能够更多的降低参考信号的负载时)从两个第四参考信号集中选择或者配置一个维度为16的参考信号集作为与第一参考信号集关联的一个第二参考信号集。
在一些实施例中，该第二指示信息可以由无线资源控制信令(RRC)，介质访问控制(MAC)控制单元(CE)或者下行控制信息(DCI)承载，上述RRC或MAC CE或DCI可以是现有的，也可以是新增的，本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。例如，该第二指示信息可以由前述参考信号配置信息元或者汇报配置信息元承载。以下示例说明。
例如，网络设备可以在参考信号配置信息元中，新增该第二指示信息来建立第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集的关联；在信息元CSI-SSB-ResourceSet中，现有的参考信号集的标识csi-SSB-ResourceSetId可以看作第一参考信号集的标识，在信息元CSI-SSB-ResourceSet中增加第二指示信息，关联一个以上第二参考信号集，该第二参考信号集可以是CSI-RS参考信号集；或者，在信息元NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet中，现有的参考信号集的标识nzp-CSI-ResourceSetId可以看作第一参考信号集的标识，在NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSet中，增加第二指示信息，关联一个以上第二参考信号集，该第二参考信号集可以是SSB参考信号集或者是CSI-RS参考信号集；或者，在信息元CSI-ResourceConfig中，参考信号集列表csi-RS-ResourceSetList可以看作一个以上的第一参考信号集，在CSI-ResourceConfig中，增加一个以上的第二指示信息，分别为各个第一参考信号集指示关联的一个以上第二参考信号集，该第二参考信号集可以是SSB参考信号集或者是CSI-RS参考信号集。在以上示例中，在配置了多个第一参考信号集时，可以针对各个第一参考信号集的配置分别增加一个第二指示信息，为各个第一参考信号集指示关联一个或多个第二参考信号集。
例如，网络设备可以在汇报配置信息元中，新增该第二指示信息来建立第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集的关联；在汇报配置信息元中，现有的参考信号集的标识可以看作第一参考信号集的标识，增加第二指示信息，关联一个以上第二参考信号集，该第二参考信号集可以是SSB参考信号集或者是CSI-RS参考信号集。
以上仅为示例说明，还可以设计新的信令承载该第二指示信息，此处不再一一示例。
在一些实施例中，所述第二指示信息至少为参考信号集的标识，或者比特位图，以下示例说明。
例如，第二指示信息使用参考信号集的标识表示，该标识即为参考信号配置信息元中的参考信号集的标识，例如NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSetId或者CSI-SSB-ResourceSetId，该第二指示信息中可以是一个或多个第二参考信号集的标识。例如，该第二指示信息使用比特位图表示，所述比特位图的长度与配置的最大参考信号集个数相关，例如该比特位图的长度(比特数)等于配置的最大参考信号集个数，每个比特位对应一个参考信号集(例如比特位在比特位图中的位置或序号和参考信号集的标识对应)，所述比特位图的一个比特值用于指示对应的参考信号集是或不是所述第二参考信号集，或者说各个比特值用于指示对应的参考信号集是否是与第一参考信号集关联的第二参考信号集。例如，在该比特值为第一特定值时，指示对应的参考信号集是关联的第二参考信号集，在该比特值为第二特定值时，指示对应的参考信号集不是关联的第二参考信号集，至于哪些比特位设置为第一特定值，可以根据第二参考信号集的标识确定，例如，第二参考信号集的标识为1,3,5，则比特位图中第2,4,6个位置上的比特对应的比特值为第一特定值。例如，第一特定值为1，第二特定值为0，或者第一特定值为0，第二特定值为1，本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。在该比特位图中有多于一个第一特定值时，表示第一参考信号集与多个第二参考信号集关联，在该比特位图中有一个第一特定值时，表示第一参考信号集与一个第二参考信号集关联。
在一些实施例中，在第一参考信号集为SSB参考信号集时，其关联的一个以上第二参考信号集为CSI-RS参考信号集，也就是说，第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集是不同类型的参考信号集，在第一参考信号集为CSI-RS参考信号集时，其关联的一个以上第二参考信号集可以为SSB参考信号集，也就是说，第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集是不同类型的参考信号集，或者，在第一参考信号集为CSI-RS参考信号集时，其关联的一个以上第二参考信号集可以为CSI-RS参考信号集，第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集是相同类型的参考信号集。如前所述，第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集对应不同的集合，在第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集是相同类型的参考信号集时，二者的参考信号集的标识不同，可以通过参考信号集的标识进行区分。但 在第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集是不同类型的参考信号集时，二者的参考信号集的标识可能相同。换言之，在网络设备配置了两种类型的参考信号集时，如果基于参考信号集的标识来指示第二参考信号集则无法确定该标识对应哪种类型的参考信号集，因此，在本申请实施例中，网络设备还可以向终端设备发送或不发送第四指示信息，该第四指示信息用于指示所述第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型与所述第一参考信号集中的参考信号的类型相同或不相同，所述参考信号类型为CSI-RS或者SSB；或者，所述第四指示信息用于指示所述第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或CSI-RS。该第四指示信息可以由无线资源控制信令(RRC)，介质访问控制(MAC)控制单元(CE)或者下行控制信息(DCI)承载，上述RRC或MAC CE或DCI可以是现有的，也可以是新增的，例如，该第四指示信息可以和第二指示信息由相同的信息元承载，或不同的信息元承载。本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。
在一些实施例中，在网络设备不发送第四指示信息时，指示第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型与第一参考信号集中的参考信号的类型相同；在网络设备发送第四指示信息时，指示第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型与第一参考信号集中的参考信号的类型不同，由此指示所述第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型，反之亦可。
在一些实施例中，网络设备发送第四指示信息，该第四指示信息使用1比特表示，在该1比特的比特值为1时，指示第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB；在该1比特的比特值为0时，指示第二参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是CSI-RS，反之亦可。
例如，网络设备为终端设备配置了N1个SSB参考信号集，CSI-SSB-ResourceSetId分别为0～N1-1，另外，网络设备为终端设备配置了N2个NZP CSI-RS的参考信号集，NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSetId分别为0～N2-1；针对ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集的参考信号配置中，还包括第二指示信息和第四指示信息，该第二指示信息为{1,3,5}，该第四指示信息的比特值为0，则表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的SSB参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联；或者针对ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)的参考信号配置中，还包括第二指示信息，该第二指示信息为{1,3,5}，由于不包括第四指示信息，则表示第二参考信号集与第一参考信号集的类型相同，即表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的CSI-RS参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，此处不再一一示例。
或者针对ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)的参考信号配置中，还包括第二指示信息，该第二指示信息为{1,3,5}，第四指示信息的比特值为0，即表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的CSI-RS参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，第四指示信息的比特值为1，即表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的SSB参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，此处不再一一示例。
例如，针对ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集的汇报配置信息中，包括第二指示信息和第四指示信息，该第二指示信息为比特位图{0000 0000 0010 1010}，第四指示信息的比特值为0，则表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的SSB参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，此处不再一一示例。或者针对ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)的汇报配置信息中，还包括第二指示信息，该第二指示信息为比特位图{0000 0000 0010 1010}，由于不包括第四指示信息，则表示第二参考信号集与第一参考信号集的类型相同，即表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的CSI-RS参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，此处不再一一示例。
或者针对ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)的汇报配置信息中，还包括第二指示信息，该第二指示信息为{0000 0000 0010 1010}，第四指示信息的比特值为0，即表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的CSI-RS参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，第四指示信息的比特值为1，即表示ID为0的CSI-RS参考信号集(第一参考信号集)与ID为1,3,5的SSB参考信号集(第二参考信号集)关联，此处不再一一示例。
例如，针对场景(一)AI模型用部分波束(对)的测量量输出全部波束(对)的预测量，可以将汇报配置信息元中NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSet作为第一参考信号集，还可以增加第二指示信息，用于指示与该第一参考信号集关联的一个以上的参考信号的预测集(第二参考信号集)，该第二指示信息可以是参考信号配置信息元中所配置的一个以上的NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSetId(还可以包括第四指示信息)。
例如，针对场景(一)AI模型用部分波束(对)的测量量输出全部波束(对)的预测量，可以在参考信号配置信息元对每个NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSet(第一参考信号集)的参考信号配置中，新增第二指示信息，用于指示与该第一参考信号集关联的第 二参考信号集，该第二指示信息指示一个以上NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSetId(还可以包括第四指示信息)。另外，还可以在参考信号配置信息元中增加第一指示信息，指示该第一参考信号集用于波束测量或者波束预测。
例如，针对场景(二)AI模型用宽波束(SSB)的测量量输出细波束的预测量，可以将汇报配置信息元中CSI-SSB-ResourceSet作为第一参考信号集，还可以新增第二指示信息，用于指示与该第一参考信号集关联的第二参考信号集，该第二指示信息指示一个以上NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSetId(还可以包括第四指示信息)。
例如，针对场景(二)AI模型用宽波束(SSB)的测量量输出细波束的预测量，可以在参考信号配置信息元中针对每个CSI-SSB-ResourceSet(第一参考信号集)的参考信号配置中，新增第二指示信息，用于指示与该第一参考信号集关联的第二参考信号集，该第二指示信息指示一个以上NZP-CSI-RS-RourceSetId(还可以包括第四指示信息)。
在一些实施例中，终端设备在接收到前述参考信号配置、汇报配置后，进行波束测量，并使用AI模型进行波束预测，即针对参考信号测量集的信号进行测量，得到测量量，将测量量输入至部署在所述终端设备侧的AI模型，得到预测量，该测量量和预测量可以是L1-RSRP或L1-SINR，终端设备可以至少根据该第一指示信息和/或第二指示信息和/或第四指示信息生成第一汇报，向网络设备发送该第一汇报，该第一汇报为汇报实例(instance)，第一汇报包括一个以上汇报量或者包括一个以上汇报量以及与所述汇报量对应的参考信号资源指示，所述汇报量根据测量和/或预测得到，即该汇报量是测量量和/或预测量。该参考信号资源指示包括同步信号块资源指示(SSB resource indicator，SSB RI)或者信道状态信息参考信号资源指示(CSI-RS resource indicator，CRI)。所述参考信号资源指示与所述第二参考信号集和/或所述第一参考信号集对应。或者说，参考信号资源指示对应的参考信号属于第二参考信号集和/或第一参考信号集。
在一些实施例中，所述第一汇报中还可以包括或不包括一个或多个第三指示信息和/或第五指示信息，该第三指示信息用于指示第三参考信号集，其中，所述参考信号资源指示与所述第三参考信号集对应。所述第三参考信号集是所述一个以上第二参考信号集中的一个第二参考信号集和/或所述第一参考信号集。即所述第三指示信息用于指示所述参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的第三参考信号集。该第五指 示信息用于指示所述第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或CSI-RS。所述第三指示信息至少是参考信号集的标识，或者比特位图，具体实施方式可以参考第二指示信息，不同之处在于，该比特位图中仅有一个比特位设置为第一特定值，该第五指示信息的实施方式可以参考第四指示信息，该第三指示信息和/或第五指示信息可以由上行控制信息UCI承载，该第五指示信息与第三指示信息一一对应。以下示例中以汇报配置信息中配置第一参考信号集为参考信号的测量集，与第一参考信号集关联的第二参考信号集为参考信号的预测集为例进行说明。
在一些实施例中，在一个第一参考信号集关联一个第二参考信号集时，该第一汇报可以不包括第三指示信息，即通过第一汇报中的参考信号资源指示就可以确定指示的参考信号是哪个参考信号集内的参考信号。例如第一汇报仅包括测量量时，该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示与第一参考信号集对应，即该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示(indicator)所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的测量集(第一参考信号集)；例如第一汇报仅包括预测量时，由于与第一参考信号集关联的就是一个第二参考信号集，因此该第二参考信号集根据该第二指示信息和/或第四指示信息也是已知的唯一确定的。该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示与第二参考信号集对应，即该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的预测集(关联的一个第二参考信号集)，不需要额外的第三指示信息指示该预测量对应的参考信号所属的参考信号集；在第一汇报中同时包括测量量和预测量时，该第一汇报可以包括第三指示信息，在第一汇报中同时包括测量量和预测量时，该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示对应的第三指示信息指示的第三参考信号集是第一参考信号集，该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的测量集(第一参考信号集)，该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示对应的第三指示信息指示的第三参考信号集是一个第二参考信号集，即该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的预测集(关联的一个第二参考信号集)，可选的，该第一汇报还可以包括第五指示信息，指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS。由此，可以避免预测量和测量量对应的参考信号资源指示相同时，无法区分其对应的参考信号集的情况。
在一些实施例中，在一个第一参考信号集关联多个第二参考信号集时，所述第一汇报中还可以包括或不包括一个以上第三指示信息和/或第五指示信息。
例如，在第一汇报仅包括测量量时，该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示与第一参 考信号集对应，即该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的测量集(第一参考信号集)，不需要在第一汇报中包含第三指示信息；在第一汇报仅包括预测量时，由于第一参考信号集关联多个第二参考信号集，因此，需要第三指示信息进一步指示该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于哪个参考信号的预测集(第三参考信号集，或者说多个第二参考信号集中的哪个第二参考信号集)；在第一汇报中同时包括测量量和预测量时，该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示对应的第三指示信息指示的第三参考信号集是第一参考信号集，该测量量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的测量集(第一参考信号集)，该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示对应的第三指示信息指示的第三参考信号集是一个第二参考信号集，即该预测量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于参考信号的预测集(关联的一个第二参考信号集)，可选的，该第一汇报还可以包括第五指示信息，指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS。由此，可以避免预测量和测量量对应的参考信号资源指示相同时，无法区分其对应的参考信号集的情况。
在一些实施例中，所述第一汇报包括一个所述第三指示信息，所述第一汇报中所有参考信号资源指示对应于所述第三指示信息所指示的所述第三参考信号集。
例如，在第一汇报中仅包括一个预测量时，该一个预测量对应一个参考信号的预测集，使用一个第三指示信息指示该一个预测量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号的预测集(第三参考信号集)。
例如，在第一汇报中仅包括多个预测量时，该多个预测量可以对应一个参考信号的预测集，例如，在AI模型的推理过程中，该AI模型的输出的预测量对应一个参考信号的预测集所对应的波束(对)，因此，可以使用一个第三指示信息统一指示所有预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号预测集(第三参考信号集)。如下表1所示，第一汇报包括有4个波束(对)，即4个SSB-RI/CRI，每个波束(对)对应有1个汇报量，SSB-RI/CRI#1对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#1，SSB-RI/CRI#2对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#2，SSB-RI/CRI#3对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#3，SSB-RI/CRI#4对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#4，在4个汇报量都是预测量，且该4个预测量对应一个参考信号的预测集时，表1中包括一个第三指示信息，该第三指示信息指示一个第二参考信号集(参考信号的预测集)，4个SSB-RI/CRI对应的参考信号属于 该一个第二参考信号集。
表1
在一些实施例中，所述第一汇报包括多(Y)个所述第三指示信息，其中，一个第三指示信息用于指示一个所述第三参考信号集；所述第一汇报中的所述一个或多(Z)个参考信号资源指示对应于所述一个第三指示信息指示的所述第三参考信号集。
例如，在第一汇报中包括一个预测量和一个或多个测量量时，该一个预测量对应一个参考信号的预测集，使用一个第三指示信息指示该一个预测量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号的预测集(第三参考信号集是一个第二参考信号集)，使用另一个第三指示信息指示该一个或者多个测量量对应的参考信号资源指示信息指示的参考信号所属的参考信号的测量集(第三参考信号集是第一参考信号集)，可选的，还可以使用第五指示信息指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或CSI-RS。
例如，在第一汇报中仅包括多个预测量时，该多(X)个预测量可以对应多(Y)个参考信号预测集，X大于或等于Y，例如，在AI模型的监控过程中，在终端设备支持多个波束预测的模型和/或功能时，不同的AI模型和/或功能使用同一参考信号测量集中参考信号的测量量，能够得到相同或不同维度的预测集所对应的波束(对)的预测量。在第一汇报中包括多个功能和/或模型的预测量，因此，需要多(Y)个第三指示信息针对每个模型和/或功能指示其各自的预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号预测集(第三参考信号集)。
如下表2所示，一个第三指示信息指示一个预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号预测集(第三参考信号集)，第一汇报包括有4个波束(对)，即4个SSB-RI/CRI，每个波束(对)对应有1个汇报量，SSB-RI/CRI#1对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#1，SSB-RI/CRI#2对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#2，SSB-RI/CRI#3对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#3，SSB-RI/CRI#4对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#4，在4个汇报量都是预测量，且该4个预测量对应参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号属于相同或不同的参考信号的预测集，表2中包括4个第三指示信息，该每个第三指示信息指示一个第三参考信号集(参考信号的预测集)，分别对应一个功能和/或模型的预测量。
表2(仅包括预测量)
例如，在第一汇报中包括一个以上测量量和多个预测量时，该一个以上测量量对应一个参考信号测量集，该多(X)个预测量可以对应多(Y)个参考信号预测集，X大于或等于Y，因此，需要多(Y)个第三指示信息针对每个模型和/或功能指示其各自的预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号预测集(第三参考信号集是一个第二参考信号集)，以及需要一个以上第三指示信息指示一个以上测量量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号测量集(第三参考信号集是第一参考信号集)。可选的，还可以使用第五指示信息指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS。
如下表3所示，L1-RSRP#1和#2是测量量，L1-RSRP#3和#4是预测量，表2中包括4个第三指示信息，该第三指示信息指示一个第三参考信号集(参考信号的预测集)，其中，SSB-RI/CRI#3和4对应的参考信号属于各自对应的第三指示信息指示的相同或不同第三参考信号集(一个第二参考信号集)中的参考信号，SSB-RI/CRI#1 和2对应的参考信号属于各自对应的第三指示信息指示的相同第三参考信号集(第一参考信号集)中的参考信号，与表2不同之处在于，可选的，该第一汇报还可以包括与第三指示信息一一对应的第五指示信息，用于指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS。
表3(包括测量量和预测量)
例如，一个第三指示信息指示多(Z)个测量量或预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的第三参考信号集，如下表4所示，第一汇报包括有4个波束(对)，即4个SSB-RI/CRI，每个波束(对)对应有1个汇报量，SSB-RI/CRI#1对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#1，SSB-RI/CRI#2对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#2，SSB-RI/CRI#3对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#3，SSB-RI/CRI#4对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#4，在4个汇报量都是预测量，且该4个预测量对应2个不同的参考信号的预测集时，表4中包括2个第三指示信息，该每个第三指示信息指示一个第三参考信号集(参考信号的预测集，一个第二参考信号集)，与2个参考信号资源指示对应，也就是SSB-RI/CRI#1和#2对应相同的参考信号的预测集，或者说SSB-RI/CRI#1和#2指示的参考信号都属于一个参考信号的预测集，SSB-RI/CRI#3和#4对应相同的参考信号的预测集，或者说SSB-RI/CRI#3和#4指示的参考信号都属于另一个参考信号的预测集。
表4
或者，如下表5所示，与表4不同之处在于，L1-RSRP#1和#2是测量量，L1-RSRP#3和#4是预测量，表5中包括两个第三指示信息，该每个第三指示信息指示一个第三参考信号集，SSB-RI/CRI#1和#2对应的一个第三指示信息指示的第三参考信号集是第一参考信号集，SSB-RI/CRI#1和#2对应相同的参考信号的测量集，或者说SSB-RI/CRI#1和#2指示的参考信号都属于一个参考信号的测量集，SSB-RI/CRI#3和#4对应的一个第三指示信息指示的第三参考信号集是一个第二参考信号集，SSB-RI/CRI#3和#4对应相同的参考信号的预测集，或者说SSB-RI/CRI#3和#4指示的参考信号属于一个参考信号的预测集。与表4不同之处还在于，可选的，该第一汇报还可以包括与第三指示信息一一对应的第五指示信息，用于指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS。
表5
例如，一个第三指示信息指示多(Z)个预测量所对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的第三参考信号集，在该示例中，第一汇报还包括与各个汇报量对 应的组标识，即可以采用分组的形式来汇报，例如如下表6所示，第一汇报包括有4个波束(对)，即4个SSB-RI/CRI，每个波束(对)对应有1个汇报量，SSB-RI/CRI#1对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#1，SSB-RI/CRI#2对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#2，SSB-RI/CRI#3对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#3，SSB-RI/CRI#4对应汇报量为L1-RSRP#4，4个汇报量都是预测量，且该4个预测量对应2个不同的参考信号的预测集，表6中包括2个第三指示信息，该每个第三指示信息指示一个第三参考信号集(参考信号的预测集)，分别与一组预测量对应的参考信号资源指示对应，也就是L1-RSRP#1和#3为一组，则使用一个第三指示信息指示该组对应的参考信号资源指示SSB-RI/CRI#1和#3对应的第三参考信号集，SSB-RI/CRI#1和#3指示的参考信号都属于一个参考信号的预测集，L1-RSRP#2和#4为一组，则使用另一个第三指示信息指示该组对应的参考信号资源指示SSB-RI/CRI#2和#4对应的第三参考信号集，SSB-RI/CRI#2和#4指示的参考信号都属于另一个参考信号的预测集。
表6
需要说明的是，上述表3和表5中，在第一汇报中同时包括预测量和测量量时，使用第五指示信息指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS，可以避免预测量和测量量对应的参考信号资源指示相同时，无法区分其对应的参考信号集的情况。但本申请实施例并不以此作为限制，还可以使用预定义的方式区分预测量和测量量，或者还可以增加第六指示信息用于指示汇报量的类型是预测量还是测量量，进而区分预测量和测量量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的参考信号集，此处不再一一示例。
另外，以上实施例中第一汇报中包含的测量量和/或预测量可以是根据测量和/或 预测得到的最优的预定数量个测量量和/或预测量，但本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。
在以上实施例中，终端设备和网络设备之间通过额外的信令配置第一参考信号集和第二参考信号集的关系，但本申请实施例并不以此作为限制。网络设备也可以不配置该第二指示信息，终端设备可以根据AI模型和/或功能的特点，在网络设备所配置的多个参考信号集中选择一个或多个第三参考信号集，并在第一汇报中，增加一个以上第三指示信息，指示选择的第三参考信号集，其中，所述参考信号资源指示与所述第三参考信号集对应。所述第三参考信号集是所述一个以上第二参考信号集中的一个第二参考信号集和/或所述第一参考信号集。即所述第三指示信息用于指示所述参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号所属的第三参考信号集。
例如，AI模型输入维度为16，输出维度为64，即用16个参考信号(16个波束(对))的测量量，输入AI模型，得到64个参考信号(64个波束(对))的预测量。此时，网络设备在汇报配置信息中，为终端设备配置一个包含16个参考信号的参考信号集，并指示该参考信号集用于波束测量。终端设备可以从网络设备在参考信号配置信息中所配置的多个参考信号集中，选择一个或多个包含64个参考信号的参考信号集作为该AI模型的参考信号的预测集(第三参考信号集)。此时，在第一汇报中增加指示该一个或多个第三参考信号集的一个以上第三指示信息，关于该第三指示信息的实施方式如前所述，可选的，终端设备还可以在第一汇报中发送第五指示信息，用于指示第三参考信号集中的参考信号的类型是SSB或者CSI-RS，此处不再赘述。
以上各个实施例仅对本申请实施例进行了示例性说明，但本申请不限于此，还可以在以上各个实施例的基础上进行适当的变型。例如，可以单独使用上述各个实施例，也可以将以上各个实施例中的一种或多种结合起来。
通过上述实施例，网络设备通过第二指示信息为参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集建立关联，由此使得终端设备在上报汇报量时，能够正确的指示出各汇报量所对应的波束(对)信息，即参考预测集中的参考信号资源，解决现有技术中的上述问题。或者，终端设备通过在汇报实例中新增第三指示信息，指明汇报量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号集，由此使得终端设备在上报汇报量时，能够正确的指示出各汇报量所对应的波束(对)信息，即参考预测集中的参考信号资源，解决现有技术中的上述问题。

通过上述实施例，网络设备通过第二指示信息为参考信号的测量集和参考信号的预测集建立关联，由此使得终端设备在上报汇报量时，能够正确的指示出各汇报量所对应的波束(对)信息，即参考预测集中的参考信号资源，解决现有技术中的上述问题。或者，终端设备通过在汇报实例中新增第三指示信息，指明汇报量对应的参考信号资源指示所对应的参考信号集，由此使得终端设备在上报汇报量时，能够正确的指示出各汇报量所对应的波束(对)信息，即参考预测集中的参考信号资源，解决现有技术中的上述问题。
