Description
The present application relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for transmitting downlink control information.

Therefore, how to flexibly determine the transmission scheme is a problem which needs to be solved urgently at present.

In this embodiment of the present application, a network device may indicate, through a first signaling, a maximum number X of transmission blocks supported for scheduling in Downlink Control Information (DCI). For example, the first signaling may be maxnrof codewordsschedule bydci. When the value of X is 1, it indicates that the DCI can only schedule one transmission block, that is, the DCI only has a group of information fields for indicating independent scheduling information corresponding to the one transmission block; when X is 2, it indicates that the DCI can schedule two transport blocks at most, and each transport block has a separate information field. Namely, the DCI includes two sets of information fields, and each set of the two sets of information fields is used to indicate independent scheduling information corresponding to one transport block. The independent scheduling information may refer to scheduling information specific to the transport block that is different from other transport blocks. Wherein, the information field indicating the independent scheduling information corresponding to the transmission block comprises at least one of the following information fields: a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) information field, a New Data Indicator (NDI) information field, and a Redundancy Version (RV) information field. The MCS indicates the modulation coding pattern used for transmission, the NDI indicates whether the scheduled data is a new transmission or a retransmission, and the RV indicates the redundancy version used for transmission.

When r isiWhen the value of (1) is 0, the terminal device does not allow reporting of the PMI and RI corresponding to the number of transmission layers υ +1, wherein a bit sequence included by i ∈ {0,1,. once.7 }. typeII-RI-redundancy is r1,r0Wherein r is0Is the least significant bit, r1Is the most significant bit. When r isiWhen the value of (1) is 0, the terminal does not allow reporting the PMI and RI corresponding to the transmission layer number upsilon ═ i +1, where i ∈ {0,1 }.
In the NR system, when the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 4, a shared channel uses 1 transmission block for transmission; when the number of transport layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8, the shared channel needs to use 2 transport blocks for data transmission. A transport block may also sometimes be referred to as a codeword. The mapping relationship between the number of layers and the code word is shown in table 1 below.
TABLE 1
The embodiment of the application can transmit the DCI by dynamically sending the first signaling and the second signaling, so as to improve the flexibility of the system. The following describes in detail the schemes of the examples of the present application.
Fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method 200 for transmitting downlink control information according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 200 may alternatively be applied to the system shown in fig. 1, but is not limited thereto. As shown in fig. 2, the method 200 includes at least some of the following.
In step 210, the terminal device receives a first signaling and a second signaling, where the first signaling is used to indicate a maximum number of transmission blocks supported by scheduling in the DCI, and the second signaling is used to indicate a maximum value of a channel rank and/or a number of transmission layers supported by the terminal device for feeding back channel quality information. The first signaling may be higher layer signaling, and the second signaling may be higher layer signaling. The maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks may be 1 or 2, and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers may be a positive integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 8.
In step 220, the terminal device receives DCI according to the maximum number of transmission blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank, and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers that are supported for scheduling.
Based on the above scheme, the terminal device receives the downlink control information according to the maximum number of the scheduled transport blocks supported in the downlink control information indicated by the first signaling and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers supported by the terminal device feeding back the channel quality information indicated by the second signaling, so that the transmission scheme (e.g., MIMO transmission scheme) dynamically indicated by the downlink control information depends on the channel state information fed back by the terminal device and the setting of the downlink control information, and the semi-static configuration of the transmission scheme is avoided, so that the transmission scheme can be flexibly determined in the aspect of setting of the downlink control information, and the flexibility of the communication system is improved.
Optionally, in step 220, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of supported scheduled transmission blocks is less than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device receives the DCI. And when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of the transmission layers is larger than a first threshold value and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling is larger than a second threshold value, the terminal equipment receives the DCI.
Optionally, in step 220, the terminal device may not be limited to the information indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling, and may receive the DCI.
The following describes a manner in which the terminal device receives DCI.
Optionally, in step 220, the terminal device may determine the information field included in the DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers, where the information field may be, for example, the number of groups of the information field, the type of the information field, and/or other information of the information field. Further, the terminal device may receive DCI according to the situation of the information domain.
Taking the case of the information field as the group number of the information field and/or the type of the information field as an example, the terminal device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information field and/or the type of the information field, so as to correctly receive the DCI.
It should be noted that the type of the information field may be divided according to the information indicated by the information field.
For convenience of description, the maximum number of transport blocks that can support scheduling in the first signaling is referred to as a first number, and the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is referred to as a second number when the number of transport layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers.
Specifically, the terminal device may determine that the number of sets of information fields included in the downlink control information is equal to the first number.
When the first number is greater than the second number, the first number of group information fields includes the second number of group information fields and other group information fields. The type of the second quantity group information field is a first type, and the first type information field is used for indicating scheduling information of the transmission block. The type of the other group information field is a second type, the second type information field is used for indicating first information, the first information is different from the scheduling information of the transmission block, namely the second type information field is used for indicating information irrelevant to the scheduling information of the transmission block.
That is, each of the second number of sets of information fields is used to indicate scheduling information for one transport block, and each of the other sets of information fields is used to indicate information unrelated to the scheduling information for the transport block.
The first information may include at least one of the following information: service class, Coded Block Group (CBG) information and related information thereof, bandwidth part (BWP) information and related information thereof, and the like.
It should be understood that the number of the other groups of information fields may be the difference between the first number and the second number, or may be smaller than the difference between the first number and the second number.
In the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the maximum number of transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling is greater than the maximum number of transmission blocks indicated by the second signaling, the second number group information field in the DCI may be used to indicate scheduling information of the transmission blocks, and the other group information fields may be used to indicate other information unrelated to scheduling of the transmission blocks, so that other information may be transmitted without increasing signaling, signaling overhead may be saved, and the purpose of reusing the DCI information field may be achieved.
In addition, according to the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the first signaling and the second signaling are not matched, that is, when the maximum number of transport blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling are not consistent, a DCI transmission scheme can be determined, so that the terminal device and the network device can have consistent knowledge on the group number of information fields included in the DCI and the type of the information fields, thereby improving the reliability of the system and the efficiency of data transmission.
And when the first number is equal to the second number, the number of the groups of the information fields in the DCI is equal to the first number, the type of the first number of the groups of the information fields is a first type, and each group of the information fields in the first number of the groups of the information fields is respectively used for indicating the scheduling information of one transmission block. The terminal device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information fields in the DCI and/or the type of the information fields, so as to correctly receive the DCI.
When the first number is less than the second number, the number of sets of information fields in the DCI is equal to the first number. The type of the first quantity group information field is a first type, and each group of information fields in the first quantity group information field is respectively used for indicating the scheduling information of one transmission block. The terminal device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information fields in the DCI and/or the type of the information fields, so as to correctly receive the DCI.
In addition, the terminal device may further receive a first Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) sent by the network device, and may send, to the network device, response (ACK) or Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) feedback information corresponding to the first PDSCH according to the number of groups of the information fields in the DCI and/or the type of the information fields. The number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the minimum of the second number and the first number, that is, the number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the number of groups of the first type information field in the DCI, that is, the number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the number of groups of the information field indicating the transport block scheduling information in the DCI.
For example, when the first number is greater than the second number, the number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the second number. The first number is 2 and the second number is 1. The DCI includes 2 sets of information fields, where one set of information fields is used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block and another set of information fields is used to indicate first information unrelated to the scheduling information of the transport block. The terminal device may send ACK/NACK feedback information corresponding to the first PDSCH to the network device according to the group number of the information fields and/or the type of the information fields included in the DCI, where the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the group number of the information fields indicating the scheduling information of the transport block included in the DCI, that is, 1 bit.
Optionally, in step 220, the terminal device may determine the number of groups of information fields and/or the type of the information fields included in the DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers. Further, the terminal device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information fields and/or the type of the information fields to receive the DCI.
Optionally, the terminal device may determine the maximum number of the actually schedulable transmission blocks in the DCI according to the maximum number of the supported schedulable transmission blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of the transmission layers, and receive the DCI according to the maximum number of the actually schedulable transmission blocks in the DCI.
The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the manner in which the terminal device determines the maximum number of actually schedulable transmission blocks in the DCI.
As an example, the terminal device may determine the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI directly according to the maximum number of supported schedulable transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers.
As another example, the terminal device may determine, according to the correspondence between the number of transmission layers and the codeword shown in table 1, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel when the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers. Further, the terminal device may determine the maximum number of the actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI according to the number of the transport blocks included in the shared channel and the maximum value of the transport blocks supported for scheduling.
The following describes in detail the determination of the maximum number of transport blocks that can actually be scheduled in DCI by the terminal device.
For convenience of description, the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI is referred to as a third number, the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is referred to as a second number when the number of transport layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers, and the maximum number of transport blocks that can support scheduling in the first signaling is referred to as a first number. Taking the NR system as an example, the first number, the second number, and the third number may be respectively 1 or 2.
Alternatively, the terminal device may determine that the third number is the maximum of the second number and the first number.
For example, when the first number is 2 and the second number is 1, or the first number is 1 and the second number is 2, or the first number is 2 and the second number is 2, the terminal device may determine that the third number is 2. When the third number is 2, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes 2 sets of information fields, and each set of information fields in the 2 sets of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
For another example, when the first number is 1 and the second number is 1, the terminal device may determine that the third number is 1. When the third number is 1, it indicates that the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device has only 1 set of information fields, where the set of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
Optionally, the terminal device may also determine that the third number is the minimum value of the second number and the first number.
For example, when the first number is 2 and the second number is 1, or the first number is 1 and the second number is 2, or the first number is 1 and the second number is 1, the terminal device may determine that the third number is 1. When the third number is 1, it indicates that the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device has only 1 set of information fields, where the set of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
For another example, when the first number is 2 and the second number is 2, the terminal device may determine that the third number is 2. When the third number is 2, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes 2 sets of information fields, and each set of information fields in the 2 sets of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
In addition, the terminal device may also determine the third number to be an average of the second number and the first number.
According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, under the condition that the first signaling and the second signaling are not matched, namely under the condition that the maximum number of the transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling are not consistent, a mode of sending the DCI by determining the maximum number of the transmission blocks which can be actually dispatched in the DCI is provided, and good communication between the terminal equipment and the network equipment can be realized.
When the terminal device determines that the maximum number of transport blocks that can be actually scheduled in the DCI is the third number, the DCI transmitted by the network device may be received according to the third number. Further, the terminal device may receive the second PDSCH transmitted by the network device, and transmit an ACK/NACK feedback message corresponding to the second PDSCH to the network device according to the group number of information fields and/or the type of information fields in the DCI, where the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback message is equal to a third number, that is, the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback message is equal to the number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI, or it can be said that the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback message is equal to the group number of information fields used for indicating the transport block scheduling information in the DCI.
Optionally, in step 220, the terminal device may not receive the DCI according to the maximum number of the supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transport layers.
For example, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold and the maximum number of supported scheduled transmission blocks is greater than a second threshold, the terminal device receives the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than the first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling is less than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device does not receive the DCI.
Optionally, in step 220, the terminal device may receive DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transport layers.
For example, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold and the maximum number of supported scheduled transmission blocks is less than or equal to a second threshold, the terminal device receives the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device receives the DCI.
The DCI can be used for scheduling shared channel transmission, and when the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to a first threshold value, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel is equal to a second threshold value.
Optionally, when the first threshold is 4, the second threshold is 1; and/or, when the first threshold is 8, the second threshold is 2.
Taking table 1 as an example, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 4, and the maximum number of transmission blocks for supported scheduling is 1, the terminal device receives DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of supported scheduled transmission blocks is equal to 1, the terminal device receives the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of transmission blocks supporting scheduling is equal to 2, the terminal device receives the DCI.
When the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 4 and the maximum number of the supported scheduling transmission blocks is 2, or when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8 and the maximum number of the supported scheduling transmission blocks is 1, the terminal device may not receive the DCI sent by the network device.
Optionally, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than 5 and the maximum number of transmission blocks supported for scheduling is 2, the terminal device receives the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of supported scheduled transmission blocks is equal to 1, the terminal device receives the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is equal to 2, the terminal device receives the DCI.
When the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than 5 and the maximum number of the supported scheduling transport blocks is 1, or when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 8 and the maximum number of the supported scheduling transport blocks is 1, the terminal device may not receive the DCI sent by the network device.
Optionally, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold, the terminal device does not expect that the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is greater than or equal to a second threshold. Or, when the maximum number of the supported scheduled transport blocks is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device does not expect that the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers is less than or equal to the first threshold. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal device does not expect that the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting the scheduling is less than or equal to the second threshold. Or, when the maximum number of the supported scheduled transport blocks is less than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device does not expect that the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers is greater than or equal to the first threshold.
The first threshold value is 4, and the second threshold value is 1. For convenience of description, it is assumed that the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is a first value, the maximum number of supported scheduled transmission blocks is a second value, and when the first value is less than or equal to 4, the second value is not expected to be greater than 1 by the terminal device. Similarly, when the second value is less than or equal to 1, the terminal device does not expect the second value to be greater than 4.
That is, when the first value is less than or equal to 4 and the second value is 2, or when the first value is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8 and the second value is 1, the terminal device may determine that the first signaling and the second signaling are in an error configuration, and the terminal device may not receive the DCI transmitted by the network device. Or, the terminal device may not perform data transmission scheduled by the DCI when determining that the first signaling and the second signaling are in an incorrect configuration.
When the first value is less than or equal to 4 and the second value is 1, or when the first value is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8 and the second value is 2, the terminal device may determine that the first signaling and the second signaling are correctly configured. The terminal device may receive the DCI transmitted by the network device and perform data scheduling indicated by the DCI.
Alternatively, the terminal device may determine, according to the correspondence between the number of transmission layers and the codeword shown in table 1, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel when the number of transmission layers used by the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers. And further determining whether to receive the DCI according to the number of the transmission blocks included in the shared channel and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling.
Specifically, when the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is equal to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the terminal apparatus receives DCI. When the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is not equal to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the terminal device may not receive the DCI.
When the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of the supported scheduled transmission blocks is less than or equal to the second threshold, or when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of the supported scheduled transmission blocks is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the terminal device may determine that the maximum number of the actually schedulable transmission blocks in the DCI is equal to the maximum number of the supported scheduled transmission blocks. That is, the terminal device may determine that at least one set of information fields is included in the DCI, the number of sets of the at least one set of information fields is equal to the maximum number of transport blocks supported for scheduling in the first signaling, and each set of information fields in the at least one set of information fields is respectively used for indicating scheduling information of one transport block.
For example, when the maximum number of transport blocks supported by the first signaling for scheduling is 2, and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8, it indicates that the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI is 2, that is, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes two sets of information fields, and each set of information fields is used for indicating scheduling information of one transport block. Namely, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes a first group information field and a second group information field, where the first group information field is used to indicate the scheduling information of the first transport block, and the second group information field is used to indicate the scheduling information of the second transport block.
For another example, when the maximum number of transport blocks supported by the first signaling for scheduling is 1, and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers is less than or equal to 4, it indicates that the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI is 2, that is, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes a set of information fields, where the set of information fields is used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block.
According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, under the condition that the first signaling and the second signaling are not matched, namely under the condition that the maximum number of the transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling are not consistent, the terminal equipment can not accept the scheduling instruction of the network equipment. Under the condition that the first signaling and the second signaling are correctly matched, namely under the condition that the maximum number of the transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling is consistent, the terminal equipment receives the instructions of scheduling and the like of the network equipment, so that good communication between the terminal equipment and the network equipment can be ensured.
Alternatively, the way in which the terminal device receives DCI may be received as described above. Specifically, the terminal device may determine the number of groups of information fields and/or the type of the information fields included in the DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers. The terminal device may then determine the bit length of the DCI according to the number of groups of information fields and/or the type of information fields, so as to correctly receive the DCI.
For example, when the maximum number of transport blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling is both 1, it indicates that a set of information fields is included in the DCI, and the type of the information fields is a first type, i.e., the information fields are used to indicate scheduling information of the transport blocks. When the maximum number of the transport blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling is 2, it indicates that two sets of information fields are included in the DCI, and the type of the two sets of information fields is the first type, that is, each set of information fields in the two sets of information fields is respectively used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block.
It should be noted that, in the above-described scheme, the maximum number of transport blocks supported for scheduling in the DCI may be understood as the maximum number of transport blocks capable of being scheduled in the DCI indicated by the first signaling. The maximum number of transport blocks that can be actually scheduled in the DCI can be understood as the maximum number of transport blocks that can be scheduled in the DCI transmitted by the network device to the terminal device. The scheduling information of the transport block refers to independent scheduling information of the transport block. The first type of information domain comprises at least one of the following information domains: MCS information field, NDI information field, RV information field, etc.
Fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a method 300 for transmitting downlink control information according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 300 may alternatively be applied to the system shown in fig. 1, but is not limited thereto. As shown in fig. 3, the method 300 includes at least some of the following.
In step 310, a terminal device receives a first signaling and a second signaling, where the first signaling is used to indicate a maximum number of transmission blocks that are scheduled and supported by downlink control information, and the second signaling is used to indicate a maximum value of a channel rank and/or a number of transmission layers that are supported by the terminal device for feeding back channel quality information;
in step 320, the terminal device determines whether to receive the downlink control information according to the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers.
Optionally, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is less than or equal to a second threshold, the downlink control information is received. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than a first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is greater than a second threshold, receiving the downlink control information.
Optionally, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling is greater than a second threshold, the downlink control information is not received. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than a first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling is less than or equal to a second threshold, not receiving the downlink control information.
Optionally, the DCI may be used to schedule transmission of a shared channel, and when the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the first threshold, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel is equal to the second threshold.
Optionally, when the first threshold is 4, the second threshold is 1; and/or, when the first threshold is 8, the second threshold is 2.
Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a method 400 for transmitting downlink control information according to an embodiment of the present application. The method 400 may alternatively be applied to the system shown in fig. 1, but is not limited thereto. As shown in fig. 4, the method 400 includes at least some of the following.
In step 410, the network device sends a first signaling and a second signaling, where the first signaling is used to indicate a maximum number of transmission blocks supported by scheduling in the downlink control information, and the second signaling is used to indicate a maximum value of a channel rank and/or a number of transmission layers supported by the terminal device for feeding back the channel quality information. The first signaling may be higher layer signaling, and the second signaling may be higher layer signaling. The maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks may be 1 or 2, and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers may be a positive integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 8.
In step 420, the network device sends downlink control information according to the maximum number of the transmission blocks, the channel rank, and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers that are supported for scheduling.
Based on the above scheme, the network device sends the downlink control information according to the maximum number of the scheduled transport blocks supported in the downlink control information indicated by the first signaling and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers supported by the terminal device feeding back the channel quality information indicated by the second signaling, so that the transmission mode (e.g., MIMO transmission mode) dynamically indicated by the downlink control information depends on the channel state information fed back by the terminal device and the setting of the downlink control information, and the semi-static configuration of the transmission mode is avoided, so that multiple transmission modes can be flexibly supported in the aspect of setting of the downlink control information, and the flexibility of the communication system is improved.
Optionally, in step 420, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is less than or equal to the second threshold, the network device sends the DCI. And when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of the transmission layers is larger than a first threshold value and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling is larger than a second threshold value, the network equipment sends the DCI.
Optionally, in step 420, the network device may not be limited to the information indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling, and may send the DCI.
The following describes a manner in which the network device transmits DCI.
Optionally, in step 420, the network device may determine, according to the maximum number of the supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers, a condition of an information field included in the DCI, where the condition of the information field may be, for example, the number of groups of the information field, the type of the information field, and/or other information of the information field. Further, the network device may transmit DCI according to the situation of the information domain.
Taking the case of the information field as the group number of the information field and/or the type of the information field as an example, the network device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information field and/or the type of the information field, so as to transmit the DCI.
It should be noted that the type of the information field may be divided according to the information indicated by the information field.
For convenience of description, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel is referred to as a second number, and the maximum number of transmission blocks that can support scheduling in the first signaling is referred to as a first number, where the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers.
Specifically, the network device may determine that the number of sets of information fields included in the downlink control information is equal to the first number.
When the first number is greater than the second number, the first number of group information fields includes the second number of group information fields and other group information fields. The type of the second quantity group information field is a first type, and the first type information field is used for indicating scheduling information of the transmission block. The type of the other group information field is a second type, and the second type information field is used for indicating the first information. The first information is different from the transport block scheduling information, i.e., the second type information field is used to indicate information unrelated to the scheduling information of the transport block. The first information may include at least one of the following information: service class, CBG information and related information thereof, BWP information and related information thereof, etc.
It should be understood that the number of the other groups of information fields may be the difference between the first number and the second number, or may be smaller than the difference between the first number and the second number.
In the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the maximum number of transport blocks indicated by the first signaling is greater than the maximum number of transport blocks indicated by the second signaling, the second number group information field in the DCI may be used to indicate transport block scheduling information, and the other group information fields may be used to indicate other information unrelated to transport block scheduling, so that other information may be transmitted without increasing signaling, signaling overhead may be saved, and the purpose of reusing the DCI information field may be achieved.
And when the first number is equal to the second number, the number of the groups of the information fields in the DCI is equal to the first number of groups, the type of the first number of groups of information fields is a first type, and each group of information fields in the first number of groups of information fields is respectively used for indicating one transmission block scheduling information. The network device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information fields in the DCI and/or the type of the information fields, so as to transmit the DCI.
When the first number is less than the second number, the number of sets of information fields in the DCI is equal to the first number. The type of the first quantity group information field is a first type, and each group of information fields in the first quantity group information field is respectively used for indicating one transmission block scheduling information. The network device may determine the bit length of the DCI according to the group number of the information fields in the DCI and/or the type of the information fields, so as to transmit the DCI.
In addition, the network device may also send the first PDSCH to the terminal device, and receive ACK/NACK feedback information corresponding to the first PDSCH sent by the terminal device according to the group number of the information fields and/or the type of the information fields in the DCI. The number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the minimum of the second number and the first number, that is, the number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the number of groups of the first type information field in the DCI, that is, the number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the number of groups of the information field indicating the transport block scheduling information in the DCI.
For example, when the first number is greater than the second number, the number of bits of the ACK/NACK feedback information is equal to the second number. The first number is 2 and the second number is 1. The DCI includes 2 sets of information fields, where one set of information fields is used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block and another set of information fields is used to indicate first information unrelated to the scheduling information of the transport block. The network device may send the second PDSCH to the terminal device, and determine that ACK/NACK feedback information corresponding to the second PDSCH is 1 bit according to the second number being 1. And then receiving ACK/NACK feedback information corresponding to the second PDSCH according to the ACK/NACK feedback information being 1 bit.
Optionally, in step 420, the network device may determine the number of groups of information fields and/or the type of the information fields included in the DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers. The network device may then transmit the DCI according to the number of groups of the information fields and/or the type of information field.
Optionally, the network device may determine the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI according to the maximum number of supported schedulable transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transport layers, and send the DCI according to the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI.
The method for determining the maximum number of the actually schedulable transmission blocks in the DCI by the network device is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.
As an example, the network device may determine the maximum number of transport blocks that can be actually scheduled in the DCI directly according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers.
As another example, the network device may determine, according to the correspondence between the number of transmission layers and the codeword shown in table 1, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel when the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers. And further determining the maximum number of the transmission blocks which can be actually scheduled in the DCI according to the number of the transmission blocks contained in the shared channel and the maximum value of the transmission blocks which support scheduling.
The following describes in detail the network device determining the maximum number of transport blocks that can actually be scheduled in DCI.
For convenience of description, the maximum number of actually schedulable transport blocks in the DCI is referred to as a third number, the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is referred to as a second number, and the maximum number of the schedulable transport blocks in the first signaling is referred to as a first number when the number of transport layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers. Taking the NR system as an example, the first number, the second number, and the third number may be respectively 1 or 2.
Optionally, the network device may determine that the third number is the maximum of the second number and the first number.
For example, the first number is 2, and when the second number is 1, or the first number is 1 and the second number is 2, or the first number is 2 and the second number is 2, the network device may determine that the third number is 2. When the third number is 2, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes 2 sets of information fields, and each set of information fields in the 2 sets of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
For another example, when the first number is 1 and the second number is 1, the network device may determine that the third number is 1. When the third number is 1, it indicates that the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device has only 1 set of information fields, where the set of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
Optionally, the network device may also determine that the third number is the minimum of the second number and the first number.
For example, when the first number is 2 and the second number is 1, or the first number is 1 and the second number is 2, or the first number is 1 and the second number is 1, the network device may determine that the third number is 1. When the third number is 1, it indicates that the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device has only 1 set of information fields, where the set of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
For another example, when the first number is 2 and the second number is 2, the network device may determine that the third number is 2. When the third number is 2, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes 2 sets of information fields, and each set of information fields in the 2 sets of information fields is used to indicate one transport block scheduling information.
In addition, the network device may also determine the third number to be an average of the second number and the first number.
According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, under the condition that the first signaling and the second signaling are not matched, namely under the condition that the maximum number of the transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling are not consistent, a mode of sending the DCI by determining the maximum number of the transmission blocks which can be actually dispatched in the DCI is provided, and good communication between the terminal equipment and the network equipment can be realized.
When the network device determines that the maximum number of transport blocks that can be actually scheduled in the DCI is the third number, the DCI may be transmitted to the terminal device according to the third number. And further sending the first PDSCH to the terminal equipment, and receiving an ACK/NACK feedback message corresponding to the first PDSCH sent by the terminal equipment according to the group number of the information domains and/or the type of the information domains in the DCI, wherein the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback message is equal to the third number. Specifically, the network device may determine, according to the third amount, the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback message corresponding to the first PDSCH, and then receive, according to the bit number of the ACK/NACK feedback message corresponding to the first PDSCH, the ACK/NACK feedback message sent by the terminal device.
Optionally, in step 420, the network device may not transmit the DCI according to the maximum number of the supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transport layers.
For example, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is greater than a second threshold, the network device transmits the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than the first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supported for scheduling is less than or equal to the second threshold, the network device does not send the DCI.
Optionally, in step 420, the network device may transmit DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transport layers.
For example, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to a first threshold and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is less than or equal to a second threshold, the network device transmits the DCI. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the network device sends the DCI.
The DCI can be used for scheduling shared channel transmission, and when the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to a first threshold value, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel is equal to a second threshold value.
Optionally, when the first threshold is 4, the second threshold is 1; and/or, when the first threshold is 8, the second threshold is 2.
Taking table 1 as an example, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 4, and the maximum number of transmission blocks supporting scheduling is 1, the network device sends DCI to the terminal device. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is equal to 1, the network device sends the DCI to the terminal device. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of transmission blocks supporting scheduling is equal to 2, the network device sends the DCI to the terminal device. When the number of transmission layers used for transmitting the shared channel is equal to 4, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel is equal to 1.
When the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 4 and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is 2, or when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8 and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is 2, the network device may not send DCI to the terminal device.
Optionally, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than 5 and the maximum number of transmission blocks supported for scheduling is 2, the network device sends DCI to the terminal device. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling is equal to 1, the network device sends the DCI to the terminal device. Or, when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 8, and the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks is equal to 2, the network device sends the DCI to the terminal device.
When the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than 5 and the maximum number of the supported scheduling transport blocks is 1, or when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to 5 and less than or equal to 8 and the maximum number of the supported scheduling transport blocks is 1, the network device may not send the DCI to the terminal device.
Alternatively, the network device may determine, according to the correspondence between the number of transmission layers and the codeword shown in table 1, the number of transmission blocks included in the shared channel when the number of transmission layers used by the shared channel is equal to the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers. And further determining whether to transmit the DCI according to the number of the transmission blocks included in the shared channel and the maximum number of the transmission blocks supporting scheduling.
Specifically, when the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is equal to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the network device transmits DCI. When the number of transport blocks included in the shared channel is not equal to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the network device may not transmit the DCI.
When the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is less than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of the supported scheduled transmission blocks is less than or equal to the second threshold, or when the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transmission layers is greater than or equal to the first threshold and the maximum number of the supported scheduled transmission blocks is greater than or equal to the second threshold, the network device may determine that the maximum number of the actually schedulable transmission blocks in the DCI is equal to the maximum number of the supported scheduled transmission blocks. That is, the network device may determine that at least one set of information fields is included in the DCI, the number of sets of the at least one set of information fields is equal to the maximum number of transport blocks supported for scheduling in the first signaling, and each set of information fields in the at least one set of information fields is respectively used for indicating scheduling information of one transport block.
For example, when the maximum number of transport blocks supported by the first signaling for scheduling is 2, and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 8, it indicates that the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes two sets of information fields, and each set of information fields is used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block. Namely, the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes a first group information field and a second group information field, where the first group information field is used to indicate the scheduling information of the first transport block, and the second group information field is used to indicate the scheduling information of the second transport block.
For another example, when the maximum number of transport blocks supported by the first signaling is 1, and the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the number of transport layers is greater than or equal to 4, it indicates that the DCI sent by the network device to the terminal device includes a group of information fields, where the group of information fields is used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block.
According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, under the condition that the first signaling and the second signaling are not matched, namely under the condition that the maximum number of the transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling are not consistent, the network equipment does not send DCI to the terminal equipment. Under the condition that the first signaling and the second signaling are correctly matched, namely under the condition that the maximum number of the transmission blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling is consistent, the network equipment and the terminal equipment carry out normal communication, so that good communication between the terminal equipment and the network equipment can be ensured.
Alternatively, the manner in which the network device transmits the DCI may be received as described above. Specifically, the network device may determine the number of groups of information fields and/or the type of the information fields included in the DCI according to the maximum number of supported scheduled transport blocks, the maximum value of the channel rank and/or the maximum value of the number of transmission layers. The network device may then transmit the DCI according to the number of groups of information fields and/or the type of information field.
For example, when the maximum number of transport blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling is both 1, it indicates that a set of information fields is included in the DCI, and the type of the information fields is a first type, i.e., the information fields are used to indicate scheduling information of the transport blocks. When the maximum number of the transport blocks indicated by the first signaling and the second signaling is 2, it indicates that two sets of information fields are included in the DCI, and the type of the two sets of information fields is the first type, that is, each set of information fields in the two sets of information fields is respectively used to indicate scheduling information of one transport block.
It should be noted that, in the above-described scheme, the maximum number of transport blocks supported for scheduling in the DCI may be understood as the maximum number of transport blocks capable of being scheduled in the DCI indicated in the first signaling. The maximum number of transport blocks that can be actually scheduled in the DCI can be understood as the maximum number of transport blocks that can be scheduled in the DCI transmitted by the network device to the terminal device. The transport block scheduling information refers to independent scheduling information of the transport block. The first type of information domain comprises at least one of the following information domains: MCS information field, NDI information field, RV information field, etc.
