具体实施方式
为了便于理解，首先介绍本申请涉及的术语。
1、时分复用(time-division multiplexing，TDM)
时分复用(time-division multiplexing，TDM)技术是将不同的信号相互交织在不同的时间段内，沿着同一个信道传输；在接收端再用某种方法，将各个时间段内的信号提取出来。这种技术可以在同一个信道上传输多路信号。
2、时分双工(time-division duplex，TDD)
在TDD模式的移动通信***中，网络设备到终端设备之间的上行和下行通信使用同一频率信道(即载波)的不同时隙，用时间来分离接收和传送信道，某个时间段由基站发送信号给移动台，另外的时间由移动台发送信号给基站。网络设备和终端设备之间必须协同一致才能顺利工作。
3、智能中继(smart repeater)
智能中继是一种受网络控制的中继设备，有望成为Rel.18用来扩大小区覆盖范围的关键技术。我 们可以称之为‘受网络控制的中继设备’‘能定向放大信号的中继设备’‘智能中继设备’‘网络辅助的中继设备’‘可控制的中继设备’等等，可以用network-controlled repeater代指。智能中继工作在第二频带范围(frequency range 2，FR2)，均工作在TDD模式，与复用方式不同，TDD表示上行信号和下行信号使用不同的时间传输。
请参见图1，图1为本申请实施例提供的一种通信***的架构示意图。该通信***可包括但不限于一个网络设备和一个终端设备，图1所示的设备数量和形态仅用于举例并不构成对本申请实施例的限定，实际应用中可以包括两个或两个以上的网络设备，两个或两个以上的终端设备。图1所示的通信***以包括一个网络设备11、一个智能中继设备13和一个终端设备12为例。
需要说明的是，本申请实施例的技术方案可以应用于各种通信***。例如：长期演进(long term evolution，LTE)***、第五代(5th generation，5G)移动通信***、5G新空口(new radio，NR)***，或者其他未来的新型移动通信***等。
本申请实施例中的网络设备11是网络侧的一种用于发射或接收信号的实体。例如，网络设备101可以为演进型基站(evolved NodeB，eNB)、传输点(transmission reception point，TRP)、NR***中的下一代基站(next generation NodeB，gNB)、其他未来移动通信***中的基站或无线保真(wireless fidelity，WiFi)***中的接入节点等。本申请的实施例对网络设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。本申请实施例提供的网络设备可以是由集中单元(central unit，CU)与分布式单元(distributed unit，DU)组成的，其中，CU也可以称为控制单元(control unit)，采用CU-DU的结构可以将网络设备，例如基站的协议层拆分开，部分协议层的功能放在CU集中控制，剩下部分或全部协议层的功能分布在DU中，由CU集中控制DU。
本申请实施例中的终端设备12是用户侧的一种用于接收或发射信号的实体，如手机。终端设备也可以称为终端设备(terminal)、用户设备(user equipment，UE)、移动台(mobile station，MS)、移动终端设备(mobile terminal，MT)等。终端设备可以是具备通信功能的汽车、智能汽车、手机(mobile phone)、穿戴式设备、平板电脑(Pad)、带无线收发功能的电脑、虚拟现实(virtual reality，VR)终端设备、增强现实(augmented reality，AR)终端设备、工业控制(industrial control)中的无线终端设备、无人驾驶(self-driving)中的无线终端设备、远程手术(remote medical surgery)中的无线终端设备、智能电网(smart grid)中的无线终端设备、运输安全(transportation safety)中的无线终端设备、智慧城市(smart city)中的无线终端设备、智慧家庭(smart home)中的无线终端设备等等。本申请的实施例对终端设备所采用的具体技术和具体设备形态不做限定。
可以理解的是，本申请实施例描述的通信***是为了更加清楚的说明本申请实施例的技术方案，并不构成对于本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限定，本领域普通技术人员可知，随着***架构的演变和新业务场景的出现，本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似的技术问题，同样适用。
通常，在智能中继通信场景中，智能中继可以用于转发的终端设备发送给网络设备的上行信号和网络设备发送给终端设备的下行信号，还可以用于向网络设备发送自身产生的上行信号，比如响应网络设备发送的控制信号的反馈信号，或者接收网络设备发送给智能中继的下行控制信号。当以上四种信号通过TDM技术复用在一起时，需要设计一种时间图样，以指示在特定时间，进行收发特定的信号，以保障收发信息的正确性。下面结合附图对本申请所提供的一种智能中继时分复用图样的确定方法及其装置进行详细地介绍。
请参见图2，图2是本申请实施例提供的一种智能中继时分复用图样的确定方法的流程示意图，该方法由智能中继执行。如图2所示，该方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤：
步骤201，接收网络设备发送的第一信号和/或第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息，其中，第一信号与第二信号以时分复用的方式复用在一起。
其中，第一信号和第二信号通过TDM的方式复用在一起，第一信号可以为需要智能中继转发的上下行信号，比如，第一信号可以为以下至少一项：转发的终端设备发送的上行信号，及转发的网络设备发送的下行信号。第二信号可以为用于智能中继与网络设备直接通信的上下行信号，比如，第二信号为以下至少一项：智能中继发送给网络设备的用于与网络设备直接通信的上行信号，及由网络设备发送给智能中继的用于与智能中继直接通信的下行信号。TDM图样信息可以用于指示智能中继设备在特定的时间，对应的信号。
本公开中，智能中继可以用于转发的终端设备发送给网络设备的上行信号和网络设备发送给终端设备的下行信号，还可以用于向网络设备发送自身产生的上行信号，比如响应网络设备发送的控制信号的反馈信号，或者接收网络设备发送给智能中继的下行控制信号。
本公开中，网络设备可以向智能中继发送第一信号和/或第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息，由此，智能中继可以根据TDM配置信息，确定在特定时间，对应的信号。
本公开中，智能中继可以接收网络设备发送的第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息，由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。
请参见图3，图3是本申请实施例提供的一种智能中继时分复用图样的确定方法的流程示意图，该方法由智能中继执行。如图3所示，该方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤：
步骤301，至少通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令，接收网络设备发送的TDM图样信息。
其中，TDM图样信息可以用于指示智能中继设备在特定的时间进行转发第一信号，或者收发第二信号。TDM图样信息可以包括以下至少一项：TDM图样的持续时长duration，TDM图样中第一信号对应的时间位置，TDM图样中第二信号对应的时间位置，TDM顺序图样，TDM图样的起始时间位置等，本公开对此不作限制。
本公开中，第一信号和第二信号通过TDM的方式复用在一起，第一信号可以为需要智能中继转发的上下行信号，比如，第一信号可以为以下至少一项：转发的终端设备发送的上行信号，及转发的网络设备发送的下行信号。第二信号可以为用于智能中继与网络设备直接通信的上下行信号，比如，第二信号为以下至少一项：智能中继发送给网络设备的用于与网络设备直接通信的上行信号，及由网络设备发送给智能中继的用于与智能中继直接通信的下行信号。其中，TDM图样中，可以用R表示第一信号，用S表示第二信号，用N表示未确定是R还是S的信号。
本公开中，智能中继可以用于转发的终端设备发送给网络设备的上行信号和网络设备发送给终端设备的下行信号，还可以用于向网络设备发送自身产生的上行信号，比如响应网络设备发送的控制信号的反馈信号，或者接收网络设备发送给智能中继的下行控制信号。
本公开中，TDM图样的持续时长duration，可以用于指示TDM图样的持续时间，此外，duration可以对应子帧subframe的数量，比如10个subframe，或者对应毫秒ms长度，或者时隙slot数量，或者符号symbol数量等，本公开对此不做限制。
可选的，duration也可以为不同时间颗粒度的组合，比如slot+symbol等。
可选的，duration还可以对应于周期值，即周期性的重复使用对应的TDM图样。
本公开中，为了减少信令的消耗，可以默认TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置为第一信号对应的时间位置，由此，智能中继即可在相应的时间位置，进行第一信号的转发。
比如，假设网络设备指示的TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置为“start x[slot]+a[symbol]”，则智能中继可以在duration的起始时间位置开始，前x[slot]+a[symbol]的时间位置用于转发第一信号，其余时间用于收发第二信号。
或者，也可以默认TDM图样中指示的时间位置，为第二信号对应的时间位置由此，智能中继即可在相应的时间位置，进行第二信号的收发。
比如，假设网络设备指示的TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置为“end x[slot]+a[symbol]”,则智能中继可以从duration的结束位置开始，倒数y[slot]+b[symbol]的时间位置用于收发第二信号，其余时间用于转发第一信号。
或者，网络设备指示的TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置，即包括第一信号对应的时间位置，也包括第二信号对应的时间位置。比如，TDM图样信息为“duration，start x[slot]+a[symbol]，end y[slot]+b[symbol]”,则智能中继可以从duration的起始位置开始，前x[slot]+a[symbol]的时间位置用于转发第一信号，从duration的结束位置开始，倒数y[slot]+b[symbol]的时间位置用于收发第二信号，其余时间不确定对应的信号。
本公开中，TDM图样的起始时间位置，可以用于指示TDM图样对应的开始生效的时间位置。
可选的，TDM图样的起始时间位置可以还根据预定义的规则确定，比如，每个偶数帧的第一个slot为TDM图样开始生效的位置，或者，TDM图样的起始时间位置还可以通过信令指示，比如，可以通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)中的offset参数配置，则TDM图样可以在收到RRC指令后的offset值个slot后开始使用；或者收到RRC指令后的offset值个subframe的第一个slot开始使用，比如，还可以通过DCI中offset参数的值指示，则TDM图样可以在收到DCI指令后的offset值个slot后开始使用。
本公开中，TDM顺序图样，可以用于指示智能中继在每个时间位置对应的信号。比如，以R表示转发第一信号，S表示收发第二信号，N表示不确定对应的信号。一个duration内(比如10个slot)TDM顺序图样可以为SRRRNNNRRS，由此，智能中继即可根据TDM顺序图样，在对应的10个slot内，依次执行转发第一信号，或收发第二信号。
本公开中，智能中继与网络设备建立连接后，网络设备可以将TDM图样信息配置在无线资源控制 (radio resource control，RRC)信令中，由此，智能中继在接收到RRC信令后，即可根据TDM图样信息，确定特定时间对应的信号，此外，智能中继还可以接受网络设备发送的用于指示在特定时间上下行情况的TDD配置信息，从而结合TDM图样信息及TDD配置信息，即可实现对各信号的收发。
比如，如图4所示，图4为TDM图样的示例图，图4中，包括TDD配置信息，其中，D表示接收下行信号，U表示发送上行信号，F表示不确定上下行情况。从而智能中继在第1个slot上进行接收第二信号，即接收网络设备发送给智能中继的下行控制信号，在第2-4个slot转发第一信号，即转发网络设备发送的下行信号，在第5个slot发送第二信号，即发送智能中继自身产生的上行信号，在第8-9个slot转发第一信号，即转发终端设备发送的上行信号，在第6-7个slot不能确定对应的信号。可选的，图样信息中可以包括一种或多种TDM图样，本公开对此不作限制。
可选的，智能中继还可以通过广播消息，***消息等，接收网络设备发送的TDM图样信息，本公开对此不作限定。
本公开中，智能中继可以通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令，接收网络设备发送的TDM图样信息。由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。
请参见图5，图5是本申请实施例提供的一种智能中继时分复用图样的确定方法的流程示意图，该方法由智能中继执行。如图5所示，该方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤：
步骤501，接收网络设备发送的第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息，其中，第一信号与第二信号为时分复用TDM信号。
本公开中，步骤501的具体实现过程，可参见本公开任一实施例的详细描述，在此不再赘述。
步骤502，接收网络设备通过媒体接入控制控制单元(media access control control element，MAC CE)和/或下行控制信息(downlink control information，DCI)发送的指示信息，其中，指示信息用于对TDM图样信息进行指示。
其中，指示信息用于指示以下至少一项：激活的TDM图样的标识，激活的TDM图样的起始时间，激活的TMD图样的重复次数，激活的TDM图样的终止时间，TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息，TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间，或者对于已配置的TDM图样的相关信息的更新等，本公开对此不作限制。
本公开中，TDM图样的标识可以为TDM图样的编号等任一可以唯一确定TDM图样的信息，本公开对此不作限制。
本公开中，当网络设备发送给智能中继的TMD图样信息中包括多种TDM图样时，网络设备还可以通过MAC CE或者DCI命令向智能中继发送包括激活的TDM图样的标识的指示信息，由此，智能中继在根据指示信息中激活的TDM图样的标识，确定激活的TMD图样。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息中激活的TDM图样的起始时间，确定TDM图样的生效时间，比如，网络设备通过DCI命令中的offset参数值，指示激活的TDM图样的起始时间时，那么智能中继在收到网络设备发送的TDM图样信息的offset参数值个slot后，可以开始使用TDM图样。
可选的，TDM图样的起始时间还可以通过预定义的规则确定，比如，预定义的规则为每个TDM图样的生效时间总是在偶数帧的第一个slot时，那么智能中继在收到网络设备发送的TDM图样信息的下一个偶数帧的第一个slot时，可以开始在使用该TDM图样。或者，预定义的规则还可以为智能中继收到MAC CE命令并向网络设备反馈混合自动重传请求确认(hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledge，HARQ-ACK)后的K个slot后开始使用，其中，参数K可以是预定义的或者网络设备配置或指示的。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息中激活的TMD图样的重复次数，确定TDM图样的失效时间，比如，指示信息中激活的TMD图样的重复次数为K次，则智能中继在TMD图样的的起始时间开始重复使用K次该TMD图样后，该TMD图样将失效。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息去激活TDM图样，确定TDM图样的失效时间，可以通过MAC CE命令去激活该TDM图样。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息中TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息，确定TDM图样中未指示的时间对应的待处理的信号，比如，如图4所示，在第6个slot位置，TDM图样中未指示待处理的信号，此时可以通过MAC CE和/或DCI命令，指示第6个slot位置待处理的信号。
可选的，TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息，可以为1个slot位置待处理的信号，或者，还可以为1个slot中连续多个symbol位置对应的TDM图样信息，本公开对此不作限制。
如图6所示，图6a中，网络设备发送给智能中继的TDM图样为SRRRSNNRRR，其中，在第7个slot时间位置不确定对应的用于传输的信号，此时，可以通过MAC或DCI，进一步指示第7个slot时间位置中连续多个symbol对应的TDM配置信息，如图6b所示。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备通过MAC CE和/或DCI，发送的指示信息中TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间，确定TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间，比如，TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间可以为，在收到DCI命令后的K个slot内有效，或者在针对该MAC CE反馈的HARQ-ACK后的K个slot内有效，或者在接收到DCI的m个symbol后开始生效，重复n次后失效等等。其中，参数K、m、n可以是网络设备指示的，比如通过RRC、MAC CE、DCI配置，或者预先设置的，本公开对此不作限制。
本公开中，网络设备还可以对已配置的TDM图样的相关信息的更新信息，配置在MAC或DCI命令中，由此，智能中继可以根据指示信息中对于已配置的TDM图样的相关信息的更新信息，对相应的TDM图样信息进行更新。
本公开中，智能中继接收网络设备发送的第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息后，可以接收网络设备通过MAC CE和/或DCI发送的用于对TDM图样信息进行指示的指示信息。由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。
本公开中，网络设备可能同时激活多种TDM图样，此时，需要进一步选择已激活TDM图样中的一各TDM图样，作为智能中继待使用的TDM图样。
请参见图7，图7是本申请实施例提供的一种智能中继时分复用图样的确定方法的流程示意图，该方法由智能中继执行。如图7所示，该方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤：
步骤701，接收网络设备发送的第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息，其中，第一信号与第二信号为时分复用TDM信号。
步骤702，接收网络设备通过MAC CE发送的指示信息，其中，指示信息用于指示激活的多个TDM图样的标识。
步骤703，接收网络设备通过DCI发送的指示信息，其中，指示信息用于指示已激活的多个TDM图样中的一个TDM图样标识。
本公开中，步骤701-703步骤的具体实现过程，可参见本公开任一实施例的详细描述，在此不再赘述。
本公开中，智能中继在接收网络设备发送的第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息后，可以接收网络设备通过MAC CE发送的用于指示激活的多个TDM图样的标识指示信息，然后，接收网络设备通过DCI发送的用于指示已激活的多个TDM图样中的一个TDM图样标识的指示信息，由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。

本公开中，第一信号和第二信号通过TDM的方式复用在一起，第一信号可以为需要智能中继转发的上下行信号，比如，第一信号可以为以下至少一项：转发的终端设备发送的上行信号，及转发的网络设备发送的下行信号。第二信号可以为用于智能中继与网络设备直接通信的上下行信号，比如，第二信号为以下至少一项：智能中继发送给网络设备的用于与网络设备直接通信的上行信号，及由网络设备发送给智能中继的用于与智能中继直接通信的下行信号。其中，TDM图样中，可以用R表示第一信号，用S表示第二信号，用N表示未确定是R还是S的信号。
本公开中，智能中继可以用于转发的终端设备发送给网络设备的上行信号和网络设备发送给终端设备的下行信号，还可以用于向网络设备发送自身产生的上行信号，比如响应网络设备发送的控制信号的反馈信号，或者接收网络设备发送给智能中继的下行控制信号。
本公开中，TDM图样的持续时长duration，可以用于指示TDM图样的持续时间，此外，duration可以对应子帧subframe的数量，比如10个subframe，或者对应毫秒ms长度，或者时隙slot数量，或者符号symbol数量等，本公开对此不做限制。
可选的，duration也可以为不同时间颗粒度的组合，比如slot+symbol等。
可选的，duration还可以对应于周期值，即周期性的重复使用对应的TDM图样。
本公开中，为了减少信令的消耗，可以默认TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置为第一信号对应的时间位置，由此，智能中继即可在相应的时间位置，进行第一信号的转发。
比如，假设网络设备指示的TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置为“start x[slot]+a[symbol]”，则智能中继可以在duration的起始时间位置开始，前x[slot]+a[symbol]的时间位置用于转发第一信号，其余时间用于收发第二信号。
或者，也可以默认TDM图样中指示的时间位置，为第二信号对应的时间位置由此，智能中继即可在相应的时间位置，进行第二信号的收发。
比如，假设网络设备指示的TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置为“end x[slot]+a[symbol]”,则智能中继可以从duration的结束位置开始，倒数y[slot]+b[symbol]的时间位置用于收发第二信号，其余时间用于转发第一信号。
或者，网络设备指示的TDM图样信息中指示的时间位置，即包括第一信号对应的时间位置，也包括第二信号对应的时间位置。比如，TDM图样信息为“duration，start x[slot]+a[symbol]，end y[slot]+b[symbol]”,则智能中继可以从duration的起始位置开始，前x[slot]+a[symbol]的时间位置用于转发第一信号，从duration的结束位置开始，倒数y[slot]+b[symbol]的时间位置用于收发第二信号，其余时间不确定对应的信号。
本公开中，TDM图样的起始时间位置，可以用于指示TDM图样对应的开始生效的时间位置。
可选的，网络设备可以通过配置无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)中的offset参数，指示TDM图样的起始时间位置，则智能中继可以在收到RRC指令后的offset值个slot后开始使用该TDM 图样；或者智能中继在收到RRC指令后的offset值个subframe的第一个slot开始使用该TDM图样。
可选的，网络设备还可以通过DCI中offset参数的值指示TDM图样的起始时间位置，则智能中继可以在收到DCI指令后的offset值个slot后开始使用该TDM图样。
本公开中，TDM顺序图样，可以用于指示智能中继在每个时间位置对应的信号。比如，以R表示转发第一信号，S表示收发第二信号，N表示不确定对应的信号。一个duration内(比如10个slot)TDM顺序图样可以为SRRRNNNRRS，由此，智能中继即可根据TDM顺序图样，在对应的10个slot内，依次执行转发第一信号，或收发第二信号。
本公开中，智能中继与网络设备建立连接后，网络设备可以将TDM图样信息配置在无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令中，由此，智能中继在接收到RRC信令后，即可根据TDM图样信息，确定特定时间对应的信号，此外，智能中继还可以接受网络设备发送的用于指示在特定时间上下行情况的TDD配置信息，从而结合TDM图样信息及TDD配置信息，即可实现对各信号的收发。
比如，如图4所示，图4为TDM图样的示例图，图4中，包括TDD配置信息，其中，D表示接收下行信号，U表示发送上行信号，F表示不确定上下行情况。从而智能中继在第1个slot上进行接收第二信号，即接收网络设备发送给智能中继的下行控制信号，在第2-4个slot转发第一信号，即转发网络设备发送的下行信号，在第5个slot发送第二信号，即发送智能中继自身产生的上行信号，在第8-9个slot转发第一信号，即转发终端设备发送的上行信号，在第6-7个slot不能确定对应的信号。可选的，图样信息中可以包括一种或多种TDM图样，本公开对此不作限制。
可选的，网络设备还可以通过广播消息，***消息等，向智能中继发送的TDM图样信息，本公开对此不作限定。
本公开中，网络设备可以通过无线资源控制(radio resource control，RRC)信令，向智能中继发送TDM图样信息。由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。

本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息中激活的TDM图样的起始时间，确定TDM图样的生效时间，比如，网络设备通过DCI命令中的offset参数值，指示激活的TDM图样的起始时间时，那么智能中继在收到网络设备发送的TDM图样信息的offset参数值个slot后，可以开始使用TDM图样。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息中激活的TMD图样的重复次数，确定TDM图样的失效时间，比如，指示信息中激活的TMD图样的重复次数为K次，则智能中继在TMD图样的的起始时间开始重复使用K次该TMD图样后，该TMD图样将失效。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息去激活的TDM图样，确定TDM图样的失效时间，可以通过MAC CE命令去激活该TDM图样。
本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备发送的指示信息中TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息，确定TDM图样中未指示的时间对应的待处理的信号，比如，如图4所示，在第6个slot位置，TDM图样中未指示待处理的信号，此时可以通过MAC CE和/或DCI命令，指示第6个slot位置待处理的信号。
可选的，TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息，可以为1个slot位置待处理的信 号，或者，还可以为1个slot中连续多个symbol位置对应的TDM图样信息，本公开对此不作限制。

本公开中，智能中继可以根据网络设备通过MAC CE和/或DCI，发送的指示信息中TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间，确定TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间，比如，TDM图样中未指示的时间用于传输的信号的属性信息的生效时间可以为，在收到DCI命令后的K个slot内有效，或者在针对该MAC CE反馈的HARQ-ACK后的K个slot内有效，或者在接收到DCI的m个symbol后开始生效，重复n次后失效等等。其中，参数K、m、n可以是网络设备指示的，比如通过RRC、MAC CE、DCI配置，或者预先设置的，本公开对此不作限制。
本公开中，网络设备还可以对已配置的TDM图样的相关信息的更新信息，配置在MAC或DCI命令中，由此，智能中继可以根据指示信息中对于已配置的TDM图样的相关信息的更新信息，对相应的TDM图样信息进行更新。
本公开中，网络设备向智能中继发送的第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息后，可以通过MAC CE和/或DCI，向智能中继发送用于对TDM图样信息进行指示的指示信息。由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。
本公开中，网络设备可能同时激活多种TDM图样，此时，需要进一步选择已激活TDM图样中的一各TDM图样，作为智能中继待使用的TDM图样。

本公开中，网络设备在向能中继发送第一信号及第二信号对应的时分复用TDM图样信息后，可以通过MAC CE，向智能中继发送用于指示激活的多个TDM图样的标识指示信息，然后，通过DCI，向智能中继发送用于指示已激活的多个TDM图样中的一个TDM图样标识的指示信息，由此，通过TDM图样信息，可以确定特定时间，对应的信号，从而实现智能中继对各信号的收发，进一步的保障了收发信息的正确性。
