DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The following clearly describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are some rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0029] Technical solutions of the present disclosure may be applied to various communications systems, for example, a Global System of Mobile communication (GSM), a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A), and NR.

[0030] User-end UE may also be referred to as a mobile terminal or mobile user equipment, and may communicate with one or more core networks by using a Radio Access Network (RAN). The user equipment may be a terminal device, such as a mobile phone (or referred to as a “cellular” phone) and a computer having a mobile terminal. For example, the user equipment may be a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer-built-in, or in-vehicle mobile apparatus, and exchange language and/or data with the radio access network.

[0031] A network device may also be referred to as a base station, and may be a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) in GSM or CDMA, or may be a NodeB in WCDMA, or may be an evolutional Node B (eNB or e-NodeB) and a 5G base station (gNB) in LTE.

[0032] In embodiments of the present disclosure, a process of obtaining Channel State Information (CSI) may generally include: For sending of an SL CSI Reference Signal (CSI-RS), transmitter UE may configure a CSI-RS-related parameter for receiver UE, and sending of the CSI-RS needs to be limited to sending of a Physical Sidelink Shared Channel (PSSCH), and is aperiodic sending. For reporting of SL CSI, a reporting resource is independently selected by the receiver UE or allocated by a base station, and is not configured by the transmitter UE. A type of an SL CSI reporting parameter is fixed reporting of a Rank Indicator (RI) and a Channel Quality Indicator (CQI), and is aperiodic reporting.

[0033] The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for sidelink information transmission. The method is performed by a first terminal device, that is, a transmitter terminal device on an SL. The method includes the following procedure steps:

[0035] Step 101: Transmit SL information to a second terminal device on a sidelink (SL) based on a target resource, where the target resource includes a resource in a target resource set or a first resource used to transmit an SL channel measurement reference signal.

[0036] Step 103: Receive feedback information transmitted by the second terminal device, where the feedback information corresponds to the SL information.

[0037] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the first terminal device and the second terminal device perform information exchange transmission by using an SL, an SL resource allocation manner can be enriched by providing insurance for the establishment of a reliable communication link between the first terminal device and the second terminal device by using a dedicated resource set, that is, a group of resources, or by using an available resource that has provided for a reliable communication link for information exchange between the first terminal device and the second terminal device, that is, the first resource used to transmit the SL channel measurement reference signal. Further, the SL information may be effectively and reliably transmitted to the second terminal device by using a target resource in any one of the foregoing forms, so that information exchange transmission with the second terminal device is successfully implemented after the feedback information corresponding to the SL information is received, and corresponding information exchange may be implemented based on the specific content of the feedback information. In this way, sidelink information transmission efficiency can be improved, and a phenomenon that a coverage area and spectrum utilization of high-frequency transmission are limited is effectively improved.

[0038] In some embodiments, in the method for sidelink information transmission in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the feedback information may be used to implement at least one of the following objectives:

[0039] (1) Obtain an SL channel state. For example, in a case that the feedback information includes Channel State Information (CSI), a corresponding channel state may be obtained based on received CSI.

[0040] (2) Perform SL beam alignment to determine an SL transmit beam and an SL receive beam. For example, in a case that the feedback information includes a measurement result obtained based on corresponding SL reference information, SL beam alignment may be implemented based on the measurement result. In other words, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, a beam alignment procedure on the SL may be implemented, and a problem that beam alignment cannot be implemented based on S-SSB scanning because whether the terminal device sends the S-SSB cannot be determined due to a reason that sending of a Sidelink Synchronization Signal and PBCH block (S-SSB) is limited by specific event triggering.

[0041] (3) Perform power control, that is, transmit power of an information sender in the sidelink communication, that is, the first terminal device, is further adjusted, so that it can always be ensured that a receiver, that is, the second terminal device, can receive, with a better receiving effect, information or a signal sent by the information sender. In this way, power waste can be reduced, and overall performance of a communication system can be improved. In this case, the feedback information may include at least one of a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement (ACK/NACK), a CQI, a Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), or a Block Error Rate (BLER).

[0042] It should be noted that an objective that can be implemented by the feedback information includes but is not limited to the foregoing content, and may further include SL beam management, SL beam failure detection, SL beam failure recovery, quasi-co-location relationship setting, and the like.

[0043] As shown in FIG. 3, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for sidelink information transmission. The method is performed by a second terminal device, that is, a receiver terminal device on an SL. The method includes the following procedure steps:

[0044] Step 201: Receive SL information transmitted by a first terminal device on a sidelink SL based on a target resource, where the target resource includes a resource in a target resource set or a first resource used to transmit an SL channel measurement reference signal.

[0045] Step 203: Transmit feedback information to the first terminal device, where the feedback information corresponds to the SL information.

[0046] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the second terminal device performs information exchange transmission with the first terminal device by using the sidelink SL, the SL information transmitted by the first terminal device based on the target resource may be received. The target resource may include a resource set, that is, a group of resources, dedicated by the first terminal device to establish a reliable communication link with the second terminal device, or may further include an available resource that has provided a reliable communication link for information exchange between the first terminal device and the second terminal device, that is, the first resource used to transmit the SL channel measurement reference signal, and transmit the feedback information corresponding to the SL information to the first terminal device, to successfully implement information exchange transmission with the first terminal device, and to further implement corresponding information exchange based on specific content of the feedback information. In this way, sidelink information transmission efficiency can be improved, and a phenomenon that a coverage area and spectrum utilization of high-frequency transmission are limited is effectively improved.

[0047] In some embodiments, in the method for sidelink information transmission in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the feedback information may be at least one of the following:

[0048] (1) CSI. When the feedback information includes the CSI, an SL channel state can be obtained.

[0049] (2) A measurement result obtained based on corresponding SL reference information. When the feedback information includes a corresponding measurement result, SL beam alignment may be performed to determine an SL transmit beam and an SL receive beam. In other words, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, a beam alignment procedure on the SL may be implemented, and a problem that beam alignment cannot be implemented based on S-SSB scanning because whether the terminal device sends the S-SSB cannot be determined due to a reason that sending of an S-SSB is limited by specific event triggering.

[0050] (3) At least one of a HARQACK/NACK, a CQI, an SINR, or a BLER. When the feedback information includes the foregoing information, power control can be implemented, that is, transmit power of an information sender in the sidelink communication, that is, the first terminal device is further adjusted, so that it can always be ensured that a receiver, that is, the second terminal device, can receive, with a better receiving effect, information or a signal sent by the information sender. In this way, power waste can be reduced, and the overall performance of a communication system can be improved.

[0051] It should be noted that the feedback information includes but is not limited to the foregoing content, and may further include SL beam management, SL beam failure detection, SL beam failure recovery, quasi-co-location relationship setting, and the like.

[0052] In some embodiments, in the method for sidelink information transmission in this embodiment of the present disclosure, an information exchange process between the first terminal device and the second terminal device is also different based on different composition of target resources. The following describes the information exchange process with reference to different specific embodiments.

Specific Embodiment 1

[0053] In this specific embodiment 1, the target resource includes a resource in the target resource set, and there are one or more resources in the target resource set. The resource in the target resource set is a sending resource dedicated by a sender, that is, the first terminal device, to transmit SL information.

[0054] In some embodiments, the target resource set is a set of time domain units, including a slot set, a sub-slot set, an S-SSB set, a Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH) resource set, a Physical Sidelink Share Channel (PSSCH) resource set, and the like.

[0055] In some embodiments, in this specific embodiment 1, in a case that there are multiple resources in the target resource set, the multiple resources have a same resource block size.

[0056] It should be noted that, in another embodiment of the method for sidelink information transmission in the present disclosure, in a case that there are multiple resources in the target resource set, the multiple resources may alternatively have different resource block sizes.

[0057] In some embodiments, in this specific embodiment 1, in a case that there are multiple resources in the target resource set, the multiple resources are consecutive. For example, the multiple resources are in consecutive logical slots or sub-slots, or in consecutive physical slots or sub-slots.

[0058] It should be noted that, in another embodiment of the method for sidelink information transmission in the present disclosure, in a case that there are multiple resources in the target resource set, the multiple resources may alternatively be non-consecutive.

[0059] In some embodiments, in this specific embodiment 1, the SL information includes an SL measurement reporting configuration parameter. The SL measurement reporting configuration parameter includes at least one of the following: a reporting triggering identifier, a reporting type, or a reporting resource. That the SL information includes the SL measurement reporting configuration parameter may be specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node.

[0060] In some embodiments, the SL measurement reporting configuration parameter may be carried in Sidelink Control Information (SCI) in different stages, for example, 1st SCI or 2nd SCI.

[0061] In some embodiments, in this specific embodiment 1, the SL information may further include an SL reference signal, and the SL reference signal includes at least one of a Sidelink Synchronization Signal (SL-SS), a Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS), or a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS).

[0062] In some embodiments, in this specific embodiment 1, the target resource set may be determined in different manners.

[0063] Manner 1

[0064] In some embodiments, in the manner 1, the target resource set is specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node.

[0065] In some embodiments, in a case that the target resource set is preconfigured or configured by a control node, the target resource set is configured or preconfigured by using Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling.

[0066] For example, a PSSCH resource set shown in FIG. 4 may be configured by the control node, and is a periodic resource. There is an offset value relative to a system frame number SFN0, and each PSSCH resource set includes four PSSCH resources. Each PSSCH resource index may be indicated in a PSCCH corresponding to a PSSCH. #0, #1, #2, and #3 shown in the figure are PSSCH resource indexes.

[0067] In some embodiments, the target resource set determined in the manner 1 and a target sidelink synchronization signal block S-SSB are in a frequency division multiplexing or time division multiplexing relationship, and a transmission manner corresponding to the target S-SSB is different from a transmission manner corresponding to each resource in the target resource set. The target S-SSB includes an S-SSB transmitted based on an existing transmission manner, for example, Rel-15 NR SL SSB.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first terminal device that determines the target resource set based on the manner 1 may be specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a network device. The first terminal device may include a group header of a group of terminal devices, a terminal device responsible for scheduling, and UE or relay UE whose type is a Road Side Unit (RSU).

[0069] Further, different parameters of the target resource set determined based on the manner 1 may also be determined in different manners.

[0070] In some embodiments, a first configuration parameter related to the target resource set is determined in a manner of being specified in a protocol, being preconfigured, or being configured by a network device.

[0071] The first configuration parameter includes at least one of the following: a period corresponding to the target resource set; an offset corresponding to the target resource set; a length or a quantity of time domain transmission units corresponding to the target resource set, where the time domain transmission unit is related to a specific case of a resource included in the target resource set, for example, if a resource in the target resource set is a slot, the time domain transmission unit is the slot, and in some embodiments, the time domain transmission unit may be a slot, a sub-slot, a beam, an S-SSB, or the like; or a frequency domain resource configuration parameter corresponding to the target resource set, where the frequency domain resource configuration parameter may include but is not limited to a length and a start location of a frequency domain resource.

[0072] In some embodiments, a second configuration parameter related to the target resource set is determined in a manner of being indicated by physical layer signaling.

[0073] The second configuration parameter includes at least one of the following: an index corresponding to the target resource set, where the index is used to identify the target resource set; an indicator corresponding to the target resource set, where the indicator is used to indicate that the SL transmission is performed based on the target resource set; or an index corresponding to each resource in the target resource set.

[0074] Manner 2

[0075] In some embodiments, in the manner 2, the target resource set is determined based on the selection of the first terminal device or scheduling of a control node.

[0076] For example, a PSSCH resource set shown in FIG. 5 may be determined by the first terminal device based on an independent selection, and each PSSCH resource set includes four PSSCH resources. Each PSSCH resource index may be indicated in a PSCCH corresponding to a PSSCH. #0, #1, #2, and #3 shown in the figure are PSSCH resource indexes.

[0077] In some embodiments, in this embodiment, there are multiple resources in the target resource set selected by the first terminal device, and when the multiple resources have a same resource block size and are consecutive, the group of resources corresponding to the target resource set may be used as candidate resources.

[0078] In some embodiments, a related configuration of the target resource set determined based on the manner 2 may be specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node.

[0079] The related configuration of the target resource set may include at least one of the following: a frequency domain resource size; a value range of a frequency domain resource size; a maximum value of a frequency domain resource size; a minimum value of a frequency domain resource size; a quantity of time domain units; a value range of a quantity of time domain units; a maximum value of a quantity of time domain units; or a minimum value of a quantity of time domain units.

[0080] It may be understood that by configuring the foregoing time/frequency domain size related parameters of the target resource set, a case in which a user occupies excessive resources can be avoided.

[0081] It should be noted that in this embodiment of the present disclosure, the related configuration of the target resource set may further include a manner determined by the first terminal device in addition to a manner specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node.

[0082] In some embodiments, a third configuration parameter related to the target resource set is determined in a manner of being indicated by physical layer signaling.

[0083] The third configuration parameter includes at least one of the following: a period corresponding to the target resource set; a length or a quantity of time domain transmission units corresponding to the target resource set, where the time domain transmission unit is related to a specific case of a resource included in the target resource set, for example, if a resource in the target resource set is a slot, the time domain transmission unit is the slot, and in some embodiments, the time domain transmission unit may be a slot, a sub-slot, a beam, a pre-coder, a panel, an S-SSB, or the like; an index corresponding to the target resource set, where the index is used to identify the target resource set; an indicator corresponding to the target resource set, where the indicator is used to indicate that the SL transmission is performed based on the target resource set; or an index corresponding to each resource in the target resource set.

[0084] In this specific embodiment 1, steps in which the first terminal device transmits the SL information based on the target resource set may be implemented based on different solutions.

[0085] Solution 1

[0086] In some embodiments, in the solution 1, a mapping relationship between SL information transmission corresponding to each resource in the target resource set and a precoding matrix is specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node.

[0087] In this embodiment, a transmission direction of SL information corresponding to each resource in the target resource set may be determined in multiple manners, to send the SL information. In some embodiments, the transmission direction is determined by using a mapping relationship between the SL information and a precoding matrix or an antenna panel.

[0088] Solution 2

[0089] In some embodiments, in the solution 2, that transmission of SL information on resources corresponding to multiple target resource sets is Quasi co-located (QCL) or not quasi co-located is specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node. For example, for multiple target resource sets, the first resource in one resource set is quasi-co-located with the first resource in another resource set. The first resources in the two resource sets are quasi-co-located with the second resource in the other resource set; and so on.

[0121] Correspondingly, for the first terminal device, the following content may be further performed:

[0122] receiving feedback information transmitted by the second terminal device based on a third resource.

[0123] In some embodiments, a frequency band on which at least one of the third resource, the second resource, or the first resource is located is specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node. The frequency band includes a Physical Resource Block set (PRB set), a Bandwidth Part (BWP), a carrier, a bandwidth, or a resource pool.

[0124] In some embodiments, the target signaling carries a target indication field, and the target indication field is used to indicate an index of a frequency band on which at least one of the third resource, the second resource, or the first resource is located. It may be understood that, for a sender, that is, the first terminal device, the target signaling may be used to indicate the index of the frequency band on which at least one of the third resource, the second resource, or the first resource is located.

[0125] In some embodiments, in an example, the second resource may be different from the first resource.

[0126] For example, as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, in a carrier aggregation manner, two carriers are configured in the system: One carrier is on an FR1 frequency band and the other carrier is on an FR2 frequency band. The system configures a carrier (that is, the first resource) of the FR1 frequency band to transmit control signaling (CSI resource configuration and CSI reporting configuration information) and CSI, and a carrier (that is, the second resource) of the FR2 frequency band to transmit CSI-RS. As shown in FIG. 6, RX UE (that is, the second terminal device) listens to the carrier of the FR1 frequency band, and obtains, by demodulating PC5-RRC, CSI-RS-related configuration information sent by TX UE (that is, the first terminal device). As shown in FIG. 7, the RX UE performs CSI measurement on the carrier of the FR2 frequency band, and reports CSI of the carrier of the FR2 frequency band to the TX UE on the carrier of the FR1 frequency band after measurement.

[0127] In some embodiments, in another example, the second resource may be the same as the first resource.

[0128] In some embodiments, in a case that the target signaling includes CSI triggering signaling, a second resource corresponding to the CSI triggering signaling is fixed in size, and is specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node, as shown in FIG. 8.

[0130] In some embodiments, in this specific embodiment 2, for the second terminal device, step 203 may be performed as the following content:

[0131] transmitting feedback information to the first terminal device based on a reporting resource set, where there are one or more resources in the reporting resource set.

[0132] In some embodiments, the reporting resource set includes a PSFCH resource set, which may be each PSFCH associated with a PSSCH.

[0133] In some embodiments, the reporting resource set includes a PSCCH resource set.

[0134] In some embodiments, the reporting resource set includes a PSSCH resource set.

[0135] In some embodiments, in an example, a resource in the reporting resource set may be indicated by the first terminal device by using the SL measurement reporting configuration parameter.

[0136] In some embodiments, in another example, the reporting resource set is determined based on selection of the second terminal device or scheduling of a control node. For details, reference may be made to a related determining process of the target resource set used by the first terminal device to send the SL information. Details are not described herein again.

[0137] In some embodiments, in still another example, the reporting resource set is specified in a protocol, preconfigured, or configured by a control node. For details, reference may be made to a related determining process of the target resource set used by the first terminal device to send the SL information. Details are not described herein again.
