The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which are derived by a person skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application, fall within the scope of protection of the application.

It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein, and that the "first" and "second" distinguishing between objects generally are not limited in number to the extent that the first object may, for example, be one or more. Furthermore, in the description and claims, "and/or" means at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally means a relationship in which the associated object is an "or" before and after.

It should be noted that the techniques described in the embodiments of the present application are not limited to long term evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE)/LTE evolution (LTE-Advanced, LTE-a) systems, but may also be used in other wireless communication systems, such as code division multiple access (Code Division Multiple Access, CDMA), time division multiple access (Time Division Multiple Access, TDMA), frequency division multiple access (Frequency Division Multiple Access, FDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access, OFDMA), single carrier frequency division multiple access (Single-carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access, SC-FDMA), and other systems, such as wireless optical systems, backscatter communication systems, RFID systems, very low power consumption internet of things systems, communication energy integrated transmission systems, and so on. The terms "system" and "network" in embodiments of the present application are often used interchangeably, and the described techniques may be used for both the above-mentioned systems and Radio technologies, as well as other systems and Radio technologies, such as New Radio (NR) systems, or 6 th Generation (6 ^th Generation, 6G) communication systems, etc.

In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the following is first described.

Backscatter communication (Backscatter Communication, BSC), which means that a backscatter communication device uses radio frequency signals in other devices or environments to modulate signals to transmit its own information, is a relatively typical passive internet of things device. The basic constitution module of the back scattering communication transmitting end comprises the following main functions:

-an antenna unit: for receiving radio frequency signals, control commands, and for transmitting modulated backscatter signals.

-An energy harvesting module or an energy supply module: the module is used for radio frequency energy harvesting by the backscatter communications device, or other energy harvesting, including but not limited to solar energy, kinetic energy, mechanical energy, thermal energy, etc. In addition to the energy harvesting module, a battery powered module may be included, where the backscatter communications device is a semi-passive device. The energy harvesting module or the energy supply module supplies power to all other modules in the device.

-A microcontroller: including control of baseband signal processing, energy storage or data scheduling states, switching, system synchronization, etc.

-A signal receiving module: for demodulating control commands or data and the like sent by a backscatter communication receiver or other network node.

-A channel coding and modulation module: channel coding and signal modulation are performed under the control of a controller, and modulation is realized by selecting different load impedances through a selection switch under the control of the controller.

-A memory or sensing module: for storing identification ID information, location information, or sensor data of the device, etc.

In addition to the above-described typical constituent modules, the future backscatter communication transmitter may also incorporate a tunnel diode amplifier module, a low noise amplifier module, or the like for improving the reception sensitivity and transmission power of the transmitter.

Optionally, the basic constituent modules of the backscatter communication receiver, i.e. the reader, include:

-an antenna unit: for receiving the modulated backscatter signal.

-A backscatter signal detection module: for detecting the backscatter signal transmitted by the backscatter communication transmitter, including, but not limited to, amplitude shift keying (Amplitude SHIFT KEYING, ASK) detection, phase-shift keying (Phase-SHIFT KEYING, PSK) detection, frequency shift keying (Frequency-SHIFT KEYING, FSK) detection, quadrature Amplitude modulation (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, QAM) detection, etc.

-A demodulation and decoding module: the detected signal is demodulated and decoded to recover the original information stream.

The backscatter communication device controls the reflection coefficient Γ of the modulation circuit by adjusting its internal impedance, thereby changing the amplitude, frequency, phase, etc. of the incident signal, effecting modulation of the signal. Wherein the reflection coefficient of the signal can be characterized as:

Where Z ₀ is the antenna characteristic impedance, Z ₁ is the load impedance, j represents the complex number, and θ _T represents the phase. Assuming that the incident signal is S _in (t), the output signal is S _out(t)＝S_in(t)|Γ|e^jθT. Thus, by reasonably controlling the reflection coefficient, a corresponding amplitude modulation, frequency modulation or phase modulation can be achieved. Based on this, the backscatter communication device may be a Tag in a conventional radio frequency identification (Radio Frequency Identification, RFID) or a Passive or Semi-Passive internet of things (IoT). For convenience, referred to herein as BSC devices.

Fig. 1A shows a schematic diagram of a single-base backscatter communication system (Monostatic Backscatter Communication System, MBCSs) to which embodiments of the present application are applicable. Such as a conventional RFID system, is a typical MBCS. The MBCS system includes a BSC transmitting device (e.g., tag) and a Reader including an RF radio frequency source and a BSC receiving device, wherein the RF radio frequency source is configured to generate RF radio frequency signals to power the BSC transmitting device/Tag. The BSC transmitting device back scatters the modulated RF signal, and the BSC receiving device in the Reader receives the back scattered signal and then demodulates the signal. The RF source and BSC receiving device are in the same device, such as a Reader herein, and thus become a single-station backscatter communication system. MBCS systems are typically used for short-range backscatter communications, such as conventional RFID applications, because the RF radio frequency signals transmitted from the BSC transmitting device experience a double near-far effect due to the signal attenuation of the round-trip signals, and thus the energy attenuation of the signals is large.

Fig. 1B shows a schematic diagram of a bistatic backscatter communication system (Bistatic Backscatter Communication Systems, BBCSs) to which embodiments of the present application are applicable. Unlike the monostatic backscatter communication systems (Monostatic Backscatter Communication System, MBCSs), the RF source, BSC transmitting device, and BSC receiving device in the BBCS system are separate, so that the problem of large round trip signal attenuation can be avoided. In addition, the performance of BBCS communication systems may be further improved by the proper placement of the RF sources. Notably, the ambient backscatter communication system ABCSs is also one of a bistatic backscatter communication system, but unlike the radio frequency source in the BBCS system, which is a dedicated signal radio frequency source, the radio frequency source in the ABCS system can be a radio frequency source in a usable environment, such as: television towers, cellular base stations, wiFi signals, bluetooth signals, etc.

For simultaneous transmission of data and energy, in addition to backscatter communications, some terminal devices that are not battery powered or that are costly to replace batteries may also be powered based on radio frequency energy. Such devices may harvest and store energy based on wireless radio frequency energy of the network node and autonomously generate carrier signals for communication/data transmission using the harvested energy. In addition, the network node can also transmit data in the process of transmitting radio frequency energy, thereby realizing simultaneous transmission of energy and data.

In a communication-energy transmission system typified by backscatter communication, a digital energy node is both a communication transmitter and an energy transmitter; the corresponding digital terminal device is both a communication receiver and an energy harvester.

Several exemplary data energy transmitter and receiver architectures are described below.

(A) Digital energy transmitter structure

A typical digital transmitter architecture is shown in fig. 2, which is connected to a power grid or a battery to obtain a stable energy supply and uses this energy to transmit data signals and energy signals to the terminal device. The transmitted signal x (t) is the sum of the two signals of the modulated data signal x _i (t) and the radio frequency power signal x _p (t) generated by the multi-sine wave generator. Then, the signal x (t) to be transmitted can be efficiently mapped on the transmitting antenna array by a beam forming technology or a precoding technology, so that the energy receiving efficiency of the terminal in the area is improved.

In a practical environment, since the data signal also carries energy, it is assumed in most studies that the data signal x _i (t) can simultaneously complete wireless information transmission and wireless energy transmission, thereby simplifying the structure of the digital transmitter. Although such transmitters are somewhat less complex, studies have found that increasing the peak-to-average power ratio of the signal can greatly increase the energy conversion efficiency, whereas data signals in conventional wireless communication systems hope that the smaller the peak-to-average power ratio, the better the peak-to-average power ratio, resulting in lower energy conversion efficiency, due to both nonlinearity and energy efficiency. Accordingly, a digital energy transmitter structure as shown in fig. 2 is increasingly used to improve energy conversion efficiency of terminals in an area.

(B) Space division digital energy receiver

The spatial division (SPACE SPLITTING, SS) digital receiver is capable of distinguishing energy signals from data signals in the spatial dimension, and the structure diagram is shown in fig. 3. Since each antenna at the receiving end can receive the signal sent from the sending end, the space division number can divide the receiving antennas into two groups: the group is an energy antenna array, and the received radio frequency signals are regarded as energy signals and are connected with an energy receiver; the other group is a data antenna array, which treats the received radio frequency signals as data signals (or referred to as communication signals), and is connected to a data receiver. Thus, the space division number can simultaneously complete the reception of energy and data by the receiver.

Still further, the spatial division can be subdivided into two different forms of spatial division, namely Fixed spatial division (Fixed SPACE SPLITTING) and variable spatial division (Flexible SPACE SPLITTING). Fixed space division refers to a fixed energy antenna array and a data antenna array and remains unchanged throughout the communication transmission and energy transmission process. Fixed spatial partitioning is relatively simple algorithmically, and may achieve higher rates with relatively stable channel conditions, but is not suitable for scenarios where channel conditions change rapidly. Variable spatial division refers to dynamic changes in the energy antenna array and the data antenna array according to different channel conditions and dynamic adjustments according to the real-time conditions of the channel. Although the spatial division algorithm is more complex and less energy efficient, it is simple and feasible in hardware implementation and can support diversity and multiplexing of multiple antenna systems.

(C) Time slot switching digital energy receiver

The time slot switching number can separate the energy signal and the data signal in the time dimension by the receiver to finish the harvesting of the energy and the receiving of the data. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, the receiving end divides a communication period T into two time slots, a first time slot μt is used for receiving energy, a second time slot (1- μ) T is used for receiving data content, and μ is a time slot switching factor. Thus, in one communication cycle, the number of slot switches can be received by the receiver as:

E＝μThP_x

the received data content is:

The slot switching factor μ controls the energy reception slot length and the data reception slot length and directly affects the amount of energy and data that can be received in this communication cycle, the most important dynamic optimization variable. The slot switching number can receiver has a simpler structure than the power division number can receiver, and has simple hardware, but has poor energy efficiency and communication capacity.

(D) Power division digital energy receiver

Power splitting numbers can be the most popular receiver for its excellent performance, and its receiver structure is shown in fig. 5. Assuming that the radio frequency signal received by the receiver is y (t), the radio frequency signal is changed into two paths of signals after passing through a power divider, whereinPart is used for energy harvesting, while the other part/>Used as data reception, ρ represents a power division factor, thereby completing simultaneous reception of data and energy. The communication rate that the digital receiver can reach and the harvested energy after power splitting are respectively:

E＝η(1-ρ)hP_x

Wherein, P _x and P _y respectively represent the signal power of the transmitting end and the signal power of the receiving end, h is the power gain of the channel, sigma ² is the noise power, and 0.ltoreq.eta.ltoreq.1 represents the energy conversion efficiency. The key of power division is a power divider and a power division factor ρ, and most systems use the power division factor ρ as an important factor and dynamic resource of system design, so that the performance of the system is optimal.

Compared with a time slot division digital energy receiver, the power division digital energy receiver can realize higher transmission rate and harvest more energy, and is a better type of digital energy receiver structure, in particular to a multi-antenna diversity power division digital energy receiver. But the power split receiver adds significantly to the hardware complexity and is not flexible enough.

(E) Integrated digital receiver

The structure of the integrated digital receiver (or called integrated digital receiver) is very similar to that of the power division digital receiver, except that the integrated digital receiver converts the received radio frequency signal into a direct current through a rectifier, and then divides the direct current into two paths of currents, one path is used for the energy receiver and the other path is used for the data receiver, as shown in fig. 6. Unlike slot-switching digital-to-digital and power-division digital-to-digital receivers, the integrated digital-to-digital receiver uses a rectifier to achieve RF-to-DC conversion, saving mixer power consumption of the data receiver. Phase-amplitude based modulation cannot be applied to integrated digital receivers, but only energy modulation is used, i.e. the data can only be code modulated in the power domain, and thus the communication rate supported by the receiver is generally low.

(F) Hybrid receiver

In addition to the four exemplary digital receiver architectures mentioned above, there may be some hybrid receiver architectures. For example, spatial division may form a new hybrid receiver architecture with slot switching, power division, and integrated reception.

For example, taking a spatial division and power division hybrid receiver as an example, a part of antennas are only used for energy reception, and other antennas are used for energy reception as well as data reception, that is, signals received on the antennas pass through a power divider, a part of signal energy is used for energy reception, and another part of signal energy is used for data reception, as shown in fig. 7A.

For another example, the time slot switch and the power division may also constitute a hybrid receiver, where the time slot switch number can separate the energy signal and the data signal in the time dimension to complete the harvesting of energy and the receiving of data. As shown in fig. 7B, the receiving end divides one communication period T into two slots, a first slot μt for receiving energy and a second slot (1- μ) T for receiving data content. Further, in the second time slot (1-mu) T, the signal is changed into two paths of signals after passing through a power divider, whereinPart is used for energy harvesting, while the other part/>Serving as data reception to accomplish simultaneous reception of data and energy. This results in a hybrid receiver of slot switching and power splitting.

It can be appreciated that the hybrid architecture concept can be extended to two-to-three, or even four hybrids in the four exemplary digital receiver architectures described above, and will not be repeated here.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned digital energy transmitter is understood to be a transmitter of data and energy, both a communication transmitter and an energy transmitter. The above-mentioned digital energy receiver is understood to mean both a data and energy receiver, both a communication receiver and an energy harvester.

The embodiment of the application can be applied to LTE systems, 5G NR systems and NR evolution systems, such as 6G systems, and IEEE 802.11, bluetooth systems, loRa terminals, zigbee systems, wireless optical communication, passive Internet of things, backscatter communication and other wireless communication systems which are suitable for energy transmission and communication transmission.

In consideration of different receiving architectures such as space division, power division, time slot switching, integrated receiving and the like of the data and energy receivers, and the harvesting energy performance and the communication performance of the receivers with different receiving architectures are different, when communication resources and/or energy resources are scheduled, resource allocation and scheduling instruction are required to be performed according to the receiver architecture and system parameters such as the number of antennas, the time slot switching factor value, the power division factor value, the rectifier parameter and the like. Further, parameter configuration can be performed according to information required for resource configuration and scheduling indication, so that the resource configuration and scheduling indication in data and/or energy transmission can be satisfied.

In the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned receiver may also be referred to as a receiving device.

That is, the first device may report the first capability information by means of an indication bit, i.e. not directly report the capability information such as the actual receiver parameters, but report the indication bit related to the receiver parameters, etc.

For example, the digital receiver architecture may be mapped with the indication bits by means of a mapping table. It is assumed that the terminal device supports 8 kinds of digital receiver architectures, namely, 4 kinds of classical receiving architectures and 4 kinds of hybrid receiving architectures, at this time, "000" may be used to represent a time slot switching digital receiver, "010" represents a space division digital receiver, "010" represents a power division digital receiver, "011" represents an integrated digital receiver, "100" represents a hybrid receiver architecture 1, "110" represents a hybrid receiver architecture 2, "110" represents a hybrid receiver architecture 3, "111" represents a hybrid receiver architecture 4.

For another example, the digital receiver architecture may be mapped with the indication bits by bitmap mapping. For example, 8 bits may be utilized to represent 8 digital energy receiver architectures, where a "1" indicates support for the corresponding receiver architecture and a "0" indicates support for the corresponding receiver architecture. For example, assume that 8 kinds of digital receivers corresponding to 8 bits are a timeslot switching digital receiver, a space division digital receiver, a power division digital receiver, an integrated digital receiver, a hybrid receiver architecture 1, a hybrid receiver architecture 2, a hybrid receiver architecture 3, and a hybrid receiver architecture 4, and if the 8 bits are 10001100, it means that the timeslot switching digital receiver architecture, the hybrid receiver architecture 1, and the hybrid receiver architecture 2 are supported, and the space division digital receiver architecture, the power division digital receiver architecture, the integrated digital receiver architecture, the hybrid receiver architecture 3, and the hybrid receiver architecture 4 are not supported.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first device may send the first capability information in a plurality of manners, which is described below.

( 1) The request response method (or: query-response mode )

In this manner (1), the first device may first receive the capability request and then transmit the first capability information according to the capability request.

In some embodiments, the third device, such as a device that performs data transmission with the first device, may first send a command/signaling to receive the UE capability request, and then the first device feeds back the UE capability information (i.e., the first capability information) from the acknowledged UE capability information. This way of feeding back capability information is applied relatively much in scenarios such as when the first device supports radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) connected states.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, after entering RRC Connected (Connected) state, a network device, such as a base station, issues a UE capability query (e.g. UE Capability Enquiry) signaling to the UE to request the UE to report its capability information (e.g. UE Capability Information); when the UE receives UE Capability Enquiry signaling, it reports its own capability information (e.g. UE Capability Information) according to the instruction. Wherein UE Capability Enquiry indicates which UE capabilities the BSC base station specifically wants to know in signaling, the signaling structure may be a signaling structure such as UE Capability Enquiry in NR, which is not limited in this way. Since the signaling structure is not what the scheme of the present application is to protect, it is not described in detail here. Similarly, UE Capability Information includes capability information reported to the base station by the UE according to the indication of the base station, and the signaling structure may also be a UE Capability Information signaling structure in NR, which is not limited in this way. Specifically, UE Capability Information signaling may carry the first capability information described above.

It should be noted that, in addition to the capability information reporting based on UE Capability Enquiry signaling and UE Capability Information signaling in the existing NR, for a digital transmission device (such as the first device) that does not support a higher layer protocol stack such as a core network, the query command may be from an application server, for example, the digital transmission device receives the query command from the application server, and then reports the corresponding capability information to the application server. Or accessing to the core network through the equipment proxy number transmission equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station, the core network equipment transmits the query command to the digital energy transmission equipment through the equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station, and then the digital energy transmission equipment reports the corresponding capability information to the core network equipment through the equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station as the proxy equipment.

(2) Active reporting mode

In this manner (2), the first device actively transmits the first capability information. For example, the active reporting mode is applied more in the first network entry registration process or the adding process of the first device.

In some embodiments, the first device may periodically actively send the first capability information, i.e. periodically actively report its own capability information.

For example, taking a first device as a UE and a second device as a base station, when the UE is first registered in the network (atach/TAU) or when the UE capability information changes, the UE may actively report its own UE capability information through NSA signaling of a non-access stratum. As shown in fig. 10, the specific process may include: s1: the UE establishes RRC connection with the network; s2: after establishing the RRC connection, the UE reports its UE capability information to the core network device through message 2, such as initial UE message Initial UE Message (e.g., including atach Request, PDN connectivity Request message, etc.); s3: the UE performs authentication, authentication and the like in a core network, and core network equipment establishes default bearing and the like; s4: the core network device issues a message 4, such as an initial context setup request Initial context setup request, to the base station; if the initial context establishment request carries UE Radio Capability IE, the base station will not send UE capability query (UE Capability Enquiry) message to the UE, i.e. no capability report in S5 to S7; otherwise, if the message 4 does not carry the UE capability, the base station initiates a UE capability query procedure, and performs S5 to S7, which is usually reporting a capability request in the first access (atach/TAU) procedure; s5: the base station sends a UE capability query message to the UE; s6: the UE reports the wireless capability information (such as the first capability information) of the UE to the base station; s7: the base station sends capability indication information (e.g., capability Info Indication) to the core network device (e.g., MME) to transfer and report the capability information of the UE.

In the active reporting scheme, the UE may actively report the capability information through a message 2, such as Initial UE message, where the signaling format and the content of the reported UE capability information may refer to the query-response mode, and the description is not repeated here.

It should be noted that, for a digital transmission device (first device) that does not support a higher layer protocol stack such as a core network, the initial UE information (e.g., initial UE message) may be sent by the digital transmission device to the application server, and then the application server performs the corresponding parameter configuration. Or the digital energy transmission equipment accesses the core network through the equipment proxy number energy transmission equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station and the like, and the digital energy transmission equipment reports the initial UE information (such as Initial UE message) to the core network equipment through the equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station and the like as proxy equipment.

(3) One-step transmission

In this mode (3), the first device jointly transmits the first capability information and the data. That is, the first device transmits its own first capability information in association with the valid data.

It can be understood that the answer-query mode and the active reporting mode are both performed after capability reporting is performed, and then data transmission and scheduling are performed. However, for the very low power consumption internet of things equipment such as BSC UE, the data packets of the terminal equipment are usually shorter and generally not more than 1000 bytes, and the BSC UE which needs to be connected with the network is massive, and the traditional method of reporting the capability before transmitting the data requires network equipment authorization such as a base station, so that a complex signaling interaction flow is required, and a large collision probability exists. Therefore, for the special very low-power-consumption internet of things equipment, unlicensed large-scale multiple access, semi-unlicensed large-scale multiple access, massive random access without user identification and the like can be adopted. One of the key contents is one-step transmission of random access and data transmission. Thus for capability reporting, another implementation may be: and transmitting the UE capability information, the user identity and the effective data through an effective one-step transmission scheme. The method of one-step random access, UE capability reporting and data transmission has very important significance for the average communication delay and control overhead of large-scale BSC UE networking service.

It should be noted that, for a digital transmission device (first device) that does not support a higher layer protocol stack such as a core network, the one-step transmission data may be that the digital transmission device sends to an application server, and then the application server performs corresponding parameter configuration. Or the data transmission equipment accesses the core network through the equipment proxy data transmission equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station and the like, and the data transmission equipment reports the one-step transmission data to the core network equipment through the equipment such as the UE/Relay/base station and the like as proxy equipment.

In the embodiment of the present application, when the receiving parameter of the first device is configured, the parameter configuration may be performed by a third party device (such as a third party network device) other than the device that performs data transmission and/or energy transmission with the first device, or the parameter configuration may be performed by the device that performs data transmission and/or energy transmission with the first device.

Optionally, the sending the first capability information may include:

The first device sends the first capability information to the second device and/or the third device; the second device is a third party device except for the device for carrying out data transmission and/or energy transmission with the first device, and the third device is the device for carrying out data transmission and/or energy transmission with the first device. Therefore, the receiving parameters of the first equipment can be flexibly configured, and the parameter configuration requirements under different digital receiving architectures can be met.

Optionally, the receiving the first information may include any one of the following:

1) The first device receives first information from the second device, and the first information is configured or indicated to be received by the first device according to the received first capability information; for example, the first device reports its first capability information to the second device, and then the second device directly configures or indicates the reception parameters of the first device according to the first capability information received from the first device.

2) The first device receives first information from the third device; the receiving parameter of the first information configuration or indication is determined by the third device according to the first capability information received from the first device or the second device, or the receiving parameter of the first information configuration or indication is determined by the second device and then sent to the third device. For example, the first device reports the first capability information to the second device, then the second device determines the receiving parameter of the first device according to the received first capability information, the receiving parameter is sent to the third device, and the third device configures or indicates the receiving parameter to the first device; or the first equipment reports the first capability information to the second equipment, then the second equipment sends the first capability information to the third equipment, and the third equipment directly configures or indicates the receiving parameters of the first equipment according to the first capability information received from the second equipment; or the first device reports the first capability information to the third device, and then the third device directly configures or indicates the receiving parameters of the first device according to the first capability information received from the first device.

Alternatively, the data signal and the energy signal received by the first device may be different signals of the same device or the same signal. For example, when the data signal and the energy signal come from different signals of the same device, the data signal and the energy signal may be distinguished by a signal identification ID or a scrambling manner or the like. Or the data signal and the energy signal received by the first device may be different signals of different devices.

In some embodiments, the reception of the data signal and/or the energy signal by the first device may be configured or indicated by the second device, such as configuring or indicating from which device the data signal and/or the energy signal was received.

The following describes the configuration modes under different network scenarios with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Deployment scenario one: communication-energy integration scenario

In deployment scenario one, not only the energy device and the communication device are the same device (i.e., communication-energy node/third device), but also the device that receives the first capability information reported by the first device, i.e., the third device receives the first capability information reported by the first device and configures or indicates the reception parameters of the first device (e.g., via the first information configuration or indication), while data transmission (i.e., communication transmission) and/or energy transmission is performed, as shown in fig. 12.

Deployment scenario two: communication-energy separation scenario

In a second deployment scenario, the communication device and the energy supply device are two physically separate devices, the communication device is used for communication transmission with the first device, and the energy supply device is used for supplying energy to the first device. In such a deployment scenario, a first device, such as a UE, may report first capability information to a communication device or an energy providing device; for example, as shown in fig. 13A, the communication device is a third device, and the first device may report the first capability information to the communication device, and the communication device configures or indicates, according to the first capability information, a receiving parameter of the first device (e.g. configured or indicated by the first information); or as shown in fig. 13B, the energy supply device is a third device, and the first device may report the first capability information to the energy supply device, and the energy supply device configures or indicates the receiving parameter of the first device according to the first capability information (such as configuration or indication through the first information).

Deployment scenario three: hybrid scene

In the integrated architecture or the split architecture, the device that the first device reports the first capability information is a communication device, an energy supply device, or a communication-energy hybrid device. In some network scenarios, however, it may be that a third party device (e.g., a third party network device) that is independent of the communication device and/or the energy-providing device is parametrically configured and subdivided into a plurality of sub-scenarios according to the deployment of communication-energy.

In sub-scenario 1 shown in fig. 14A and 14B, the communication device and the energy providing device are the same device (i.e., communication-energy node/third device), but the first device is reporting the first capability information to a third party device (i.e., second device) other than the communication device and the energy providing device. At this time, according to the reported first capability information, the second device may configure or indicate the receiving parameters of the first device in two ways: 1) In a first configuration, as shown in fig. 14A, the second device sends the determined reception parameter to the communication-energy node (i.e., the third device), and then the communication-energy node configures or indicates the reception parameter of the first device (e.g., by the first information configuration or indication); 2) In a second configuration, as shown in fig. 14B, the second device directly configures or indicates the reception parameters of the first device (e.g., configured or indicated by the first information).

In sub-scenario 2 shown in fig. 14C and 14D, the communication device and the energy providing device are two physically separated devices, but the first device is reporting the first capability information to a third party device (i.e., a second device) other than the communication device and the energy providing device. At this time, according to the reported first capability information, the second device may configure or indicate the receiving parameters of the first device in four manners: 1) In a first configuration, as shown in fig. 14C, the second device forwards the first capability information to the energy supply device (i.e., the third device), and then the energy supply device configures or indicates the receiving parameter of the first device (e.g., configured or indicated by the first information); 2) In a second configuration shown in fig. 14C, the second device determines the receiving parameters of the first device and sends the receiving parameters to the energy supply device, and then the energy supply device configures or indicates the receiving parameters (such as configuration or indication by the first information) for the first device; 3) In a third configuration shown in fig. 14D, the second device forwards the first capability information to the communication device (i.e., the third device), and then the communication device configures or indicates the reception parameter of the first device (e.g., configured or indicated by the first information); 4) In a fourth configuration shown in fig. 14D, the second device determines the reception parameter of the first device and sends the reception parameter to the communication device, and then the communication device configures or indicates the reception parameter for the first device (e.g., by the first information configuration or indication).
