在上述实施例中,通过将第一类比特和第二类比特分别携带于第一MAC CE内的不同八元组,从而使得终端在对第一MAC CE解码时,可先解码第二类比特所在的八元组,进而根据第二类比特的解码结果,对携带有第一类比特的八元组进行选择性的解码,以降低终端的解码量,提高解码效率。
结合第一方面的一些实施例,在一些实施例中,所述第一MAC CE的比特构成N个八元组:所述N为大于等于3的正整数;

在一些实施例中,对于激活或去激活SP CSI上报的MAC CE,如图1B所示,图1B是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种MAC CE的结构示意图。
其中,服务小区标识(Serving Cell ID)指示MAC CE适用的服务小区的标识;该字段的长度为5比特(bit)。
带宽部分(Bandwidth Part,BWP)ID指示MAC CE应用的上行BWP,作为TS 38.212[9]中规定的下行控制信息DCI带宽部分指示符字段的码点。该字段的长度为2比特(bit);
Si:该字段指示CSI报告配置(CSI ReportConfigToAddModList)中的半持续CSI报告配置的激活/停用状态,如TS 38.331[5]中所规定。
S0指的是包括用于指示的BWP中的SP CSI报告的PUCCH资源并且在类型设置为基于PUSCH的半持续(semi-PersistentONPUCCH)的列表内具有最小CSI配置标识(ReportConfigId)的CSI报告配置。

Si字段被设置为1时指示应激活对应的半持续CSI报告配置。Si字段被设置为0时指示对应的半持续CSI报告配置将被去激活。
图2是根据一示例性实施例示出的一种信道状态信息CSI报告配置处理方法的交互示意图。如图2所示,本公开实施例涉及信道状态信息CSI报告配置处理方法,用于通信系统100,方法包括:
步骤S2101:网络设备向终端发送MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,终端接收网络设备发送的MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,该网络设备可包括但不限于接入网设备。
在一些实施例中,终端可为各种类型的通信设备。该终端可为移动终端或固定终端。例如,该终端可为手机、平板电脑、智能办公设备、智能家居设备、车载设备和/或飞行设备。
在一些实施例中,MAC CE,用于激活或去激活半持续信道状态信息(Semi-Persistent Channel State Information,SP-CSI)报告的上报。
在一些实施例中,MAC CE,用于激活或去激活不同配置粒度的SP-CSI报告的上报。
在一些实施例中,所述MAC CE可包括以下之一:
第一MAC CE;
第二MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,第一MAC CE,用于激活或去激活以子配置为粒度的CSI报告的上报。
在一些实施例中,第二MAC CE,用于激活或去激活以CSI报告配置为粒度的CSI报告的上报。
在一些实施例中,CSI报告配置的子配置与空间图样(spatial pattern,SD)元素和/或发射功耗对应。
需要说明的是,每一个CSI报告配置中可包括有多个子配置;每一个子配置可与空间图样(spatial pattern,SD)和/或多个功耗(power)制式相关联。
第一MAC CE可激活以子配置为粒度的CSI报告的上报,即利用第一MAC CE,可对一个CSI报告配置内的一部分子配置进行激活,对该CSI报告配置的另一部分子配置进行去激活。而第二MAC CE可激活以配置为粒度的CSI报告的上报,即第二MAC CE只能对整个CSI报告配置(该CSI报告配置内的所有子配置)进行激活或去激活,两个不同类型的MAC CE激活或去激活CSI报告的配置粒度不同。
为了便于终端能够确定出接收到的MAC CE是第一MAC CE还是第二MAC CE,在一些实施例中,所述MAC CE包括:第三类比特。
在一些实施例中,第三类比特的第一比特值,用于指示MAC CE是第一MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,第三类比特的第二比特值,用于指示MAC CE是第二MAC CE。
需要说明的是,可通过第三类比特的不同比特值,来区分第一MAC CE和第二MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,所述第三类比特可以是MAC CE内的预留比特。
值的注意的是,可以直接利用MAC CE内的预留比特,通过预留比特的不同比特值,区分第一MAC CE和第二MAC CE。在本实施例中,第三类比特可作为MAC CE的正文内容被携带在MAC CE内。
在另一些实施例中,可基于MAC CE的逻辑信道标识(Logic Channel Identifier,LCID),区分
第一MAC CE和第二MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,第一MAC CE的LCID,与第二MAC CE的LCID不同。
需要说明的是,MAC CE所在的MAC协议数据单元(Protocol Data Unit,PDU)的包头或者MAC子PDU的包头可包括LCID域,可利用该LCID域内携带的LCID,指示该MAC CE是第一MAC CE,还是第二MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,可基于LCID域的两个不同的预留码点,分别指示第一MAC CE和第二MAC CE。
需要说明的是,LCID域可包括多个比特。示例性地,LCID域可包括8个比特,这8个比特可具有64个码点。例如,64个码点中其中37-42以及47为预留码点,在本公开实施例中,可以使用这些预留码点指示第一MAC CE和第二MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,第一MAC CE可包括:至少一个第一类比特,用于指示子配置的激活或去激活。
在一些实施例中,所述至少一个第一类比特为比特位图,其中,所述比特位图中一个比特,用于指示一个所述子配置的激活或去激活。
需要说明的是,至少一个第一类比特可通过比特位图(bitmap)方式指示CSI报告配置内至少一个子配置的激活或去激活。比特位图中的每一个比特位对应一个子配置,通过不同比特位承载特定比特值,以指示比特位对应的子配置的激活或去激活。
值的注意的是,基于比特位图指示子配置的激活或去激活的方式,能够有效降低第一MAC CE内第一类比特的解码复杂度,但是由于比特位图中的一个比特位对应一个子配置,使得第一MAC CE内第一类比特能够指示激活或去激活的子配置的数量,受限于第一MAC CE内第一类比特的数量。
例如,第一MAC CE内包括:4个第一类比特,该第一MAC CE仅能够指示4个子配置的激活或去激活。
在一些实施例中,所述至少一个第一类比特为联合指示信息,其中,所述至少一个第一类比特的一个序列值,用于指示多个子配置激活或去激活的组合关系,其中,所述序列值可由所述至少一个第一类比特的各个比特的比特值构成。
需要说明的是,第一MAC CE内的至少一个第一类比特构成指示序列;该指示序列的不同序列值,用于指示CSI报告配置内的多个子配置激活或去激活的不同组合关系。
在一些实施例中,可预先配置至少一个第一类比特的不同序列值与CSI报告配置内的多个子配置激活或去激活的不同组合关系之间的映射关系;从而利用至少一个第一类比特形成的一个序列值,指示一种CSI报告配置内的多个子配置激活或去激活的组合关系。
值的注意的是,基于联合指示信息指示子配置的激活或去激活的方式,能够有效提高至少一个第一类比特能够指示的多个子配置激活或去激活的不同情况的数量。利用较少的第一类比特的数量,指示更多的子配置激活或去激活的组合关系,有效减小第一MAC CE占用的比特数。
例如,第一MAC CE内包括:4个第一类比特,4个第一类比特构成指示序列,具有16个不同的序列值;从而利用该指示序列的不同序列值,指示CSI报告配置内的所有子配置激活或去激活的不同组合关系。
在一些实施例中,所述第一MAC CE还包括:至少一个第二类比特,用于指示CSI报告配置的激活或去激活;其中,所述第一类比特,用于指示被激活的所述CSI报告配置中子配置的激活或去激活。
需要说明的是,可通过第二类比特的不同比特值,指示该第二类比特对应的CSI报告配置的激活或去激活;进一步地,可通过第一类比特的不同比特值,指示被激活的CSI报告配置中该第一类比特对应的子配置的激活或去激活。
在一些实施例中,所述第二类比特可以是已有MAC CE内的S比特。
需要说明的是,已有MAC CE内的S比特可为4bits,分别为S0至S3。可以理解的是,S0至S3分别对应不同的CSI报告配置。
第一MAC CE可具有多个不同的可选结构,以下提供几种可选的实施例。

值的注意的是,本实施例的第一MAC CE内的预留比特位均用于携带第一类比特。也就是说,第一MAC CE内不包含第三类比特。
为了区分第一MAC CE和第二MAC CE,在一些实施例中,第一MAC CE所在的MAC PDU的包头或者MAC子PDU的包头可包括:LCID域;该LCID域内携带有第一MAC CE对应的LCID。

在一些实施例中,终端可基于CSI报告配置内被激活的子配置,执行对应的测量。
需要说明的是,CSI报告配置的子配置与空间图样(spatial pattern,SD)元素和/或发射功耗对应,相对于终端基于CSI报告配置执行测量的方式,本公开实施例中,终端仅执行CSI报告配置部分被激活的子配置相关的测量,能够有效降低终端的测量功耗。
并且,终端基于CSI报告配置部分被激活的子配置相关的测量得到的测量结果也会相应减少,从而能够降低CSI报告上报所需的资源。
在一些实施例中,终端可接收网络设备发送的第二MAC CE。
在一些实施例中,终端根据第二MAC CE,确定激活或去激活的CSI配置报告。
本公开实施例所涉及的信道状态信息CSI报告配置处理方法可以包括步骤S2101至步骤S2102中的至少一者。例如,步骤S3101可以作为独立实施例来实施,例如,步骤S2103可以作为独立实施例来实施,但不限于此。
在一些实施例中,步骤S2102是可选的,在不同实施例中可以对这些步骤中的一个或多个步骤进行省略或替代。可以理解的是,在网络设备发送第二MAC CE的情况下,由于第二MAC CE仅能够指示CSI报告配置的激活,终端不需要CSI报告配置内子配置的激活或去激活。

Rel-18NES场景中,为降低网络设备功率开销,网络设备可以基于传输负载的动态变化,动态降低传输下行数据对应的空间元素(spatial elements)数或传输功率,从而降低网络能源开销。考虑到所述空间元素或传输功率的动态调整空间图样(spatial adaptation,SD)模式,Rel-18定义了以子配置(sub-configuration)为粒度的CSI上报。对于同一个CSI report config,可以包含L个子配置(sub-configuration),每个子配置(sub-configuration)与特定空间图样(spatial pattern,SD)和/或多个功耗(power)制式相关联。
为提升终端上报效率,降低对应的上报开销,对于配置的L个子配置,基站可以通过相关信令激活/去激活其中N个子配置上报;而对于SP类型的CSI上报,可以通过MAC CE进行激活/去激活。但现有机制中,所述MAC CE只激活/去激活以CSI report config为粒度的上报。在引入以子配置为粒度的上报后,如何激活/去激活L个子配置内的N个子配置上报,仍在进一步讨论过程中。
本公开实施例所解决的技术问题,即本发明的核心思想,如背景所述,在一个CSI report config中包含多个上报子配置(sub-configuration)的条件下,设计信令指示激活/去激活的上报子配置(sub-configuration),提升CSI测量上报效率精度,实现终端和基站理解一致。

在Ni为0的条件下,指示对应的子配置(sub-configuration)去激活;在Ni为1的条件下,指示对应的子配置(sub-configuration)激活;
若所述MAC CE基于现有MAC CE基础上增强,终端基于Oct 1的R field确定MAC CE的指示功能。即,若指示为0,则为legacy MAC CE,指示CSI report config的激活/去激活,若指示为1,则所述MAC CE指示CSI report子配置(sub-configuration)的激活/去激活。
若所述MAC CE固定大小(size)为N bits,N大于等于16,或对应可变大小(Variable size)。

若所述MAC CE固定大小(size)为N bits,N大于等于16,或对应可变大小(variable size)。
下述将从终端和基站角度,阐述本发明的具体实施方式:
假设终端为支持NES特性的终端。为支持多个空间图样(spatial pattern,SD)和/或多个功耗(power)制式的测量上报,NES支持针对同一个CSI report config,定义多个子配置(sub-configuration)的sub-CSI上报。与现有机制,一个CSI report config对应一个CSI相比,Rel-18NES一个CSI report config对应多个子配置(sub-configuration),每个子配置(sub-configuration)对应一个sub-CSI上报,可以
有效提升动态CSI测量上报性能。

若Ni指示的对应子配置(sub-configuration)的索引超过S0,S1,…,S3指示的所有激活CSI报告配置或参考CSI报告配置所包含的子配置(sub-configuration)的索引范围,终端忽略掉对应的子配置(sub-configuration)。所述CSI report配置基于CSI-ReportConfig配置。
若所述MAC CE基于现有MAC CE基础上增强,终端基于Oct 1的R field确定MAC CE的指示功能。即,若指示为0,则为legacy MAC CE,指示CSI report配置的激活/去激活;若指示为1,则所述MAC CE为指示CSI report子配置(sub-configuration)的激活/去激活。

以此类推;若Ni指示的对应子配置(sub-configuration)的索引超过S0,S1,…,S3指示激活CSI报告配置或报告配置(report configuration)内对应的CSI报告配置所包含的sub-congratulation索引范围,终端忽略掉对应的sub-congratulation;所述CSI report config基于CSI-ReportConfig配置。
若所述MAC CE基于现有MAC CE基础上增强,终端基于Oct 1的R field确定MAC CE的指示功能。即,若指示为0,则为legacy MAC CE,指示CSI报告配置(CSI report config)的激活/去激活,若指示为1,则所述MAC CE为指示CSI报告配置的子配置(CSI report sub-configuration)的激活/去激活。

若所述MAC CE基于现有MAC CE基础上增强,终端基于Oct 1的R field确定MAC CE的指示功能。即,若指示为0,则为legacy MAC CE,指示CSI report config的激活/去激活,若指示为1,则所述MAC CE为指示CSI report sub-configuration的激活/去激活。
